2. Freelove Eldred (1.Mary1) was born Abt 1700; died Between 1750 and 1761, North Kingstown, RI. Notes:
In her mother's will, proved 24 Dec 1750 at North Kingstown, RI, Freelove is mentioned as the wife of Nicholas Northup of North Kingstown, Esq. It is not known exactly when this will was written, but I am assuming for the present that Freelove was still living in 1750, when her mother's will was proved.
Freelove married Nicholas Northup 23 Jun 1720, North Kingstown, RI. Nicholas (son of Stephen Northup, Jr. and Mary Thomas) was born 20 Jan 1689/90; died Abt Oct 1765, North Kingstown, RI. [Group Sheet]

Generation: 3
3. Thomas Northup (2.Freelove2, 1.Mary1) was born Abt 1721. Notes:
I am not sure whether Thomas was a son of Feelove, or of a previous wife. I have estimated his year of birth.
Thomas — Susannah Congdon. Susannah was born 7 Feb 1719/20. [Group Sheet]
4. Abigail Northup (2.Freelove2, 1.Mary1) was born Abt 1723. Notes:
I am not sure whether Abigail was a daughter of Freelove, or of a previous wife. I am making an assumption that she was a daughter of Freelove, and have estimated her year of birth.
5. Nicholas Northup, Jr. (2.Freelove2, 1.Mary1) was born Abt 1724; died 23 Jul 1805, Providence, RI. Notes:
Nicholas Northup, Esq., of North Kingstown, died in his 81st year.
I have made an assumption that both of these marriages are for this particular "Nicholas, son of Nicholas."
Nicholas Northup, Jr., witnessed a North Kingstown will around the year 1766. Nicholas & Hannah Northup witnessed the will of Hannah Allen, dated 12 Dec 1805, North Kingstown. Possibly she was Hannah Northup's mother (?).Nicholas married Ann Slocum Abt 1745. Ann was born Abt 1725; died Bef 1750. [Group Sheet]

- 12. Anne "Nancy" Northup was born Abt 1767; died 4 Jul 1807.
6. Eunice Northup (2.Freelove2, 1.Mary1) was born Abt Nov 1726. Notes:
Eunice's year of birth does not appear in the records, so I have roughly estimated it.
7. Gideon Northup (2.Freelove2, 1.Mary1) was born 28 Jan 1727/28; died 1 Oct 1813, North Kingstown, RI. Notes:
The church records say he died 30 Sept 1814, but the year seems to be one off.
He and his wife, Avis, and his brother Rouse (Rowse) were all baptized on the same day.
Six of these children appear in the North Kingstown records as "of Gideon and (?)," years of birth unreadable. I am assuming they are children of this couple, although that may not be correct. Sylvester is not listed, so I don't think he is a biological child of this couple, although one genealogy puts him in this family group. Perhaps he was orphaned young and raised by this couple (needs more research).Gideon married Avis Slocum 26 Sep 1751, Jamestown, RI. Avis (daughter of Samuel Slocum and Anne Gould) was born 14 May 1734; died 22 May 1814. [Group Sheet]

- 20. Elizabeth Northup was born 1777; died 19 Nov 1860, North Kingstown, RI.
8. Rouse Northup (2.Freelove2, 1.Mary1) was born Abt Mar 1729/30. Notes:
Rouse's year of birth does not appear in the records, so I have roughly estimated it. He and his brother Gideon were baptized on the same day.
Rouse Northup witnessed the 16 Jan 1775 will of Samuel Slocum of Jamestown.9. William Northup (2.Freelove2, 1.Mary1) was born 8 Dec 1732, South Kingstown, RI; died Abt 21 May 1827, Newport, Herkimer Co., NY; was buried , Baptist Churchyard, Deerfield, Oneida, Co., NY. Notes:
William & Ann had 12 children, including a set of twins. They migrated to Onieda Co., NY, sometime around 1800.
I would like to find out where the name Remington (for one of their sons) comes from.
The birth record for Remington Northup says he was a son of Nicholas & Ann (Slocum) Northup. Was this a clerk's error? I have a marriage for another Ann Slocum to Nicholas, William's older brother; but supposedly she died defore Remington would have been born. This puzzling entry needs more research.
William was a Drum Major in the RI troops in the Revolutionary War. His gravestone is inscribed "A hero of the Revolution."
There is a very interesting account of this family and some allied families in both RI & NY, titled "Biography of Henry Knowles Greene, Town of New Haven, NY" [http://www.rootsweb.com/~nyoswego/biographies/hgreene.html].William married Ann Slocum 16 Aug 1761, Jamestown, RI.

10. Daniel Northup (2.Freelove2, 1.Mary1) was born Abt Apr 1734, North Kingstown, RI; died Nov 1734, North Kingstown, RI. Notes:
Daniel, whose birth and death are recorded at North Kingstown, may or may not be a son in this family group. Unfortunately, some of the pages are burned, and the year is not legible.
11. Ann Northup (2.Freelove2, 1.Mary1) was born Abt 1736. Notes:
I am not positive that one of the daughters was named Ann.

I am making an assumption that this is Rev. William Northup, who died 31 May 1839, according to the North Kingstown church records in James N. Arnold's Vital Record of RI.

21. Remington Northup, Sr. (9.William3, 2.Freelove2, 1.Mary1) was born 1 Feb 1764, North Kingstown, RI; died 1829, Deerfield, Oneida Co., NY. Notes:
The birth record for Remington Northup says he was a son of Nicholas & Ann (Slocum) Northup. Was this a clerk's error? I have a marriage for another Ann Slocum to Nicholas, William's older brother; but supposedly she died defore Remington would have been born. This puzzling entry needs more research.
At the present time I am assuming that Remington was indeed a son of William & Ann. He went to Oneida, NY, as they did. Also, he named a son William.Remington married Amy Knowles Abt 1791. Amy was born Abt 1769. [Group Sheet]
