| 5859 | Online notes: Dr. Daniel Lotz was born in Flushing, New York. Dr. Lotz's father was a Baptist minister until he was 84. Dr. Lotz was voted outstanding senior for Long Island, All State football, basketball and track. He attended the University of NorthCarolina, and was a member of the 1957 National Basketball Championship teamand Captain of the 1959 team. He started the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) at UNC, and is on the National Board of the FCA. He is in the New YorkHall of Fame in Long Island NY, and the National FCA Hall of Fame. He hastaught Sunday School for 50 years, and started a Raleigh men's Friday morning Bible Study with 200 men. Dr. Lotz has been a BSF leader for 25 years. Additional notes from findagrave.com: Daniel Milton Lotz was born Flushing, New York, on March 30, 1937 to John and Adeline Lotz. He claimed Jesus Christ as his Savior at the age of five during Vacation Bible School. When his father challenged him at the age of 15 following a meeting at the Bowery Mission in lower Manhattan to seek first the Kingdom of God and all the other things in his life would fall into place. Danny surrendered his life to Jesus Christ as his Lord. "For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain." Philippians 1:21 This was published in The News and Observer on Aug. 30, 2015 The husband of Billy Graham's daughter, Ann Graham Lotz, died Wednesday after he was found unresponsive Monday in a back-yard pool at the couple's Raleigh house. Ann Lotz confirmed in a Facebook posting that Danny Lotz, 78, a retired dentist and her husband of 49 years, died in Rex Hospital shortly before noon where he was taken after she found him unresponsive in their pool Monday afternoon. A statement from the Lotz family said his heart stopped while he was swimming. Emergency responders were able to restart his heart before taking him to Rex, the statement said. He was surrounded by family when he died. In her Facebook posting, Lotz, a Raleigh-based evangelist, said her husband was diagnosed with severe Adult 1 diabetes when he was 50 and had received dialysis for more than 10 years. She wrote that he lost sight in one eye and hearing in one ear. He had heart disease that required five stents in his arteries. "Yet he never complained, never slowed down, never gave up, never stopped investing in the lives of others," she wrote. "As a New Yorker, he was pained spoken. As a German he was stubborn. As a Christian he was a compassionate servant leader. At 6-foot-7, Danny Lotz was a sophomore forward on the 1957 basketball team at UNC Chapel Hill that was unbeaten and won the national championship. He'd been involved nationally with the fellowship of Christian Athletes. His alma mater sent a statement Wednesday that Lotz and his teammates "permanently etched their names in the history books as members of the undefeated 1957 national champions, but his position impact on people went far beyond basketball." The university called Lotz a "true gentleman and beloved member of the Tar Heel family." In a surprise ceremony in February, Lotz was given the order of the Long Leaf Pine, which recognizes outstanding North Carolinians for their lifetime of service to the state. Published in Charlotte Observer on Aug. 20, 2015. My note: Danny's mother, Adeline, was sister to my Uncle Albert Kettell. | Lotz, Dr. Daniel Danny Milton (I24055)

| 5860 | Online trees have her date of birth as 9 Feb 1782. Her gravestone inscription says she died at age 67 in January 1850, which if correct confirms 1782 as her birth year. | Griffiths, Content (I28895)
|
| 5861 | Online whaling crew lists show David Remington, able seaman, going on a voyage 20 June 1842, ship Hibernia. Also listed twice is David G. Remington, on ship Persia 19 July 1843, a seaman; and on ship Golconda 23 Oct 1844, a cooper. In addition, microfilm lists show David, b. Tiverton, going out three times between 1829 and 1836. Is David G. "our" David? Most likely - and it looks as if he took a break to get married and conceive at least one child (marriage July 1839, child born Dec 1842). David & Angeline were married in 1839, had one child, and then he died of consumption in 1849. A published death record says David G. Remington died 26 Apr 1849 at age 36 of consumption, and names his parents as David G. & Angeline Remington. This reflects a register book that has the death record of David I. Remington at age 36 on 26 Apr 1849, parents David G. & Angeline. That must be incorrect because clearly those are the names of David and his wife. It was probably a clerical error. Another death record in a register book has David G. Remington who died at age 35 on 26 Apr 1849, birthplace Tiverton, no parents mentioned. This was written in a book headed 1861, but the date given is 1849 -- apparently a later copy of the earlier record, omitting the parents names as incorrect. Other supporting evidence -- David Remington is listed for New Bedford in the 1840 census, with one male 20-30 and one female 20-30. He is not there in the 1850 census, but his wife and child are there -- Angeline & Mary C. Remington -- ages 29 and 7, living with H.(?) & Harriet Butler, along with an infant named John Sonchoe (?). Further evidence is that David is buried in the same family plot in New Bedford as Alice (Grinnell) Remington and other family members. There is a remote chance that there were two David Remingtons the same age who were New Bedford whalers at the same time -- but I will check further to eliminate that as a possibility. (So far no evidence of that.) | Remington, David G. (I05164)
|
| 5862 | Only three of Joseph & Mary's children -- Ann, Joseph, & Mary -- are registered in the town records. Also recorded is "Daughter" of Joseph, but it is not with the other birth records. The names of the others came from The Monroe Book (by Dr. Joan Guilford, Genealogy Publishing Service), which I have found to be incorrect in some places. Some family trees at Rootsweb's Worldconnect have Joseph's date and location of death as 1759 in New London, CT. This needs research to confirm. | MUNROE, Joseph (I17497)

|
| 5870 | Other children were born to this couple, but the given names are not known. According to notes by David Carr, William became the 10th Baron of Ferniehurst, Scotland. However, he lived in London, England, and took his mother's maiden name to continue the Kirkcaldy line (Why? Possibly because she had no brothers, and with a view to receiving the family inheritance.) However, when William failed to inherit family property in Grange, Scotland, his children reverted to the Carr or Kerr surname. This information, as well as data on the preceding generations, is presented without verification. It may well be fact, but proving it may be difficult since England and Scotland are far away; furthermore, locating old records is often difficult. However, there is a lot of historical information on the internet about this family. [http://www.electricscotland.com/] William's parents are given as Thomas Kerr (Carr), 9th Baron of Ferniehurst, and Janet Kirkaldy (b. ca.1544 in Grange, Scotland). Summary of online info: Thomas became the 9th Baron of Ferniehurst Castle. He was also noted for his patriotic involvement with Mary Stuart, Queen of Scots (see notes from David Carr). The name of Carr, Kerr, or Karre is as old as the Norman Conquest at the Battle of Hastings in 1066. One of the followers of William the Conqueror, of Normandy, is recorded in the Roll of the Gattle Abbey as having the name Karre. The early descendants of this Norman soldier and succeeding generations spread on both sides of the border between England and Scotland. Direct lines can be traced through various peerage books of England and Scotland (titles and whereabouts? see web site) to Andrew Kerr I, the 6th Baron of Ferniehurst, Scotland. He was born in 1450, created Baron in 1480, and knighted in 1483. He and his son Andrew II, 7th Baron of F., were remarkable men for talent and undaunted courage, conspicuous in the reigns of James IV and James V. Andrew Kerr II died in 1543. His son, Sir John Kerr, 8th Baron of F., did great service for Scotland by rescuing Mary, Queen of Scots from English raiders. Sir Thomas, 9th Baron and son of Sir John, was also a loyal and devoted subject of the Queen. See Watson's "The House of Carr," 1926. William's youngest brother (or half-brother) was Robert "Robin" Carr, b. 1580 in Ferniehurst, Scotland. He is said to have been a favorite of King James VI of Scotland, who became King James I of England after the death of Elizabeth I. It was this king who authorized the King James translation of the Bible in 1611. Robin was: Groom of the Bed Chamber, 1607; Viscount Rochester, 1611; Knight of the Garter, 1613; Earl of Somerset; and Lord High Treasurer of Scotland, 1614. In 1609 he was granted the forfeited estate of Sir Walter Raleigh. As an influential member of the court, he was both feared and respected. | Kerr\CARR, William (I01340)

|
| 5872 | Other information I received said Katharine was a daughter of Francis D. Nichols and Mary Hall. The names John P. & Clara came from Katharine's obituary. She resided in East Greenwich for 60 years, after moving there from North Kingstown. She was a member of the Stony Lane Six Principle Baptist Church of North Kingstown, a member of the East Greenwich Preservation Society, and a member of the Frenchtown Community Club. | Nichols, Katharine B. (I06060)

| 5880 | Paraphrased from Warwick land evidence, July 21, 1760: The 34th year of the reign of George II, Peleg Remington yeoman of Warwick, to Stephen Wilcox yeoman of Warwick, two acres of land in Scituate set off on the south side of Peleg's land, bounded on the west by land of Isaac Tripp, north by land belonging to Jane Remington, east by the highway, south by Stephen Wilcox's land, 100 pounds 10 shillings 4 p. Anstice Remington, wife of Peleg, released and quitclaim her right of dowry and power of thirds on the land in Scituate, deed signed 21 July 1760. Recorded at Warwick 30 Dec 1767. I am assuming that this Peleg is one of the two Peleg Remingtons listed for Warwick in the 1774 RI Census. If so, he probably had at least one daughter (b. aft. 1758) and three sons (one b. bef. 1758 and two b. aft. 1758). Some time ago I discovered (at the Warwick Historical Society) a reprint of a newspaper article referring to a Peleg Remington who inherited the estate of Capt. Thomas Remington, slave trader of Pawtuxet. This increases the number of Pelegs and Thomases to sort out. From Warwick Land Evidence, 20 June 1772: "I, Oliver Arnold of East Greenwich, inn holder, am bound and obliged to Peleg Remington of Warwick, laborer, for L20." Conditions of above obligation -- aforementioned Peleg Remington -- both this day made a deed of sale of a certain house and lot of aforementioned Oliver Arnold. Deed to the place at death (?) of Jean Remington mother of aforementioned Peleg Remington, sd. premises in Warwick. Aforesaid Peleg Remington pay unto aforesaid Oliver Arnold money with interest due thereon at death of above Jean Remington. * * * * * The following notes are from East Greenwich Town Council Records, courtesy of Cherry Fletcher Bamberg, also published in "Gleanings" Apr 2008 by RIGS: 30 Dec 1749 -- A summons was issued to Nansey Remington, wife of Peleg Remington of Warwick, to appear and explain her presence in the town. 21 Jan 1749/50 -- Nansey Remington of Warwick, wife of Peleg Remington, was ordered to leave town before the next council meeting or bring security for abode. * * * * * * Does the above refer to this Peleg? Are Nancy and Anstice the same person? Probably -- Nancy was usually a nickname for Ann and its variations. Is he the same Peleg Remington, of Warwick, RI, who served in Capt Wall's Company in 1757 during the French & Indian War? Possibly. There are two Peleg Remingtons listed for Warwick in the 1774 RI Census. * * * * * * From Warwick Town Council Records (courtesy of Cherry Fletcher Bamberg): 6 April 1747: Josiah Remington of Warwick, deceased "some time since," leaving a small estate in Warwick. The council offered administration first to the unnamed widow and then to the son Peleg Remington who both refused. The clerk was to post notices in Warwick and surrounding towns asking creditors to come forward at the next quarterly meeting. 13 October 1764: Capt. Silas Cook submitted his bill for sundries delivered to Peleg Remington's wife by order of the overseer of the poor. Approved. (Was this bill referring to this particular Peleg, husband of Anstice? If so, she was still alive as of this date.) | Remington, Peleg (I22856)

| 5881 | Paraphrased summary of information for Pasco Whitford: Family tradition says that Pasco was born about 1640 in England. Details of this family tradition were written down by William Whitford of Addison, VT (son of Peleg, Pasco, Nicholas, Pasco). He states that Pasco and his two sons, Pasco Jr. and Nicholas, came to Rhode Island from the West Indies, having been driven out of that location by the French during the naval warfare between England and France. They fled to Rhode Island, settling first in Portsmouth, then in East and West Greenwich (see William Whitford's "Narrative of the Whitford Family" in the Vermont Historical Society Collection). William Whitford reports that Pasco is said to have come from Bedfordshire, England, because of a record of his paying taxes there in 1680. However, according to Austin's "Genealogical Dictionary of Rhode Island," he was taxed in Newport, RI, in 1680. Another possibility, stated in a letter dated 3 June 1911 from George N. Whitford to Walter John Coates, is that Pasco may have been from Truro, Cornwall, England, since Whitfords have been numerous there for the last 400 years. There was also an old Cornish family of the surname Pascoe, who were plentiful in that area. Possibly the maiden name of Pasco Whitford's mother or grandmother was Pascoe, although the LDS Family History Library records of marriages prior to 1640 in Cornwall do not show any matches between a Pascoe and a Whitford. During the 1690 proceedings of the General Assembly of the colony of Rhode Island, presided over by Governor Henry Bull, Mr. Pasco Whitford (among others) was voted a freeman of the colony (see p.270, Records of the Colony of Rhode Island, compiled by John Russell Bartlett, Vol.3, Providence, RI). Pasco was living in East Greenwich at that time. On 13 April 1697 he is recorded as a witness on a deed from Samuel Eldred, Sr. to his son John in Kings Town. Pasco is also mentioned in a will dated 1682, of Charles Martin of East Greenwich (see History of East Greenwich, 1960, by M. R. McPartland, pp. 25-28 for a deciphering of this will). However, some of these references to Pasco Whitford may actually be about his son, also named Pasco Whitford. Ref: Marcel Beaudet [mbeaudet@tampabay.rr.com] All that being said, J. R. Cole, in his "History of Washington and Kent Counties" pub. by W. W. Preston & Co. in 1889, states on p. 1343 that "the family is said to be of Welsh descent," and, "Nicholas Whitford came from Wales." According to Alden Beaman's "RI Genealogical Register," Vol. 1 No. 3, Pasco's gravestone with the inscription PW 1690 is in the East Greenwich Historical Cemetery #29, near Tarbox Corners. It is actually in West Greenwich #29, located in the woods near Tarbox Corners, off Carrs Pond Rd. His gravestone has been photographed and will be posted at our family website. His name is written variously as Pasque, Paskee, Pasco, and Paskeo. How was it really pronounced and written? An online source for Whitford family tree information is Craig Rice's data: http://www.gencircles.com/users/craigjrice/1 (or do a google search for "Ancestors and Cousins of Craig Rice") But beware -- his information is not all accurate. It is just a possible source of connections for research. | WHITFORD, Pasco (I01282)

I found his dates of birth and death in Ruth S. Bliss's genealogy, p. 702 (need to find the title). | Manchester, Pardon (I17826)

| 5886 | Pasco lived in East and West Greenwich, and in Coventry, RI. The first three children were born in East Greenwich (Vital Records of Kent Co. p. 171). The rest of the children were born in West Greenwich (Vital Records of Kent Co. p. 102). On 2 May 1727, by vote of the RI Colonial Assembly, Pasco Whitford of East Greenwich was admitted freeman of the colony (RI Colonial Records, vol. 4, p. 386). In 1751 Pasco Whitford bought 80 acres of land from Gideon Brayton at Tarbox Corner in East Greenwich, RI. This land was originally granted to the Knight family in 1677, sold to Gideon Freeborn 1688, deeded to his daughter Mary and her husband Thomas Brayton and then passed on to their son Gideon Brayton in 1721. The house on this property has been dated at 1738 and is still standing, having been refurbished. The property passed from the Whitfords to the Tarbox family possibly through an inheritance to Pasco's granddaughter Easter (Esther?) who married Joseph Tarbox in 1788. Source: The East Greenwich Packet - Fall 1971 Vol 1 no 2. There is a Pasco Whitford listed in the Rhode Island Colonial Census of 1 June 1774, where he is shown as head of a West Greenwich family consisting of 1 male and 1 female over 16, and 1 male under 16, and 1 black, total 4. This may be for this Pasco. The 1777 RI Military Census shows Paskeo Whitford of West Greenwich as "60 yrs. and up." The 1782 Census shows Pasqua Whitford's household of West Greenwich as having one male 50 and up, 2 males and 2 females 22-49, 2 boys and 2 girls 0-15. This may be for this Pasco. He was a member of the Maple Root Church of Coventry, RI. This church was organized in 1762. His son David and David's wife, Lydia (Sweet), were also members (Arnold's Vital Records of RI, vol. 10, p. 275). His grave site was quite challenging to find. It is located off Carr's Pond Rd. near Middle Rd., near the East Greenwich/West Greenwich border. One must trek a ways through the woods to get to it, and then it is hard to find because it is so well hidden by trees and briers. The marker is a simple rough-hewn granite stone, with a simple and rough inscription: P W 1700 - 1788. There are several other similar Whitford stones nearby, as well as quite a few Tarbox family stones. (Historical Cemetery WG 029) | WHITFORD, Pasco (I01241)
