Generation: 1

  1. 1.  Henry Northup was born 1663; died Abt Oct 1740, North Kingstown, RI.

    Notes:

    The will of Henry Northup, yeoman of North Kingstown, mentions one son, named Immanuel; and mentions the following daughters: a daughter (likely Patience), wife of John Congdon; Susannah, wife of John Pinder; Mary, wife of Jeffrey Champlin; and other daughters under 18 and single, whose names have been burned off the will.

    His wife Mary is not mentioned in the will, which suggests she may have predeceased him. The marriage record of son Immanuel identifies his parents as Henry & Mary.

    It is possible that his first wife Mary died, and he married another woman named Mary. Could he have married Mary Eldred, as one genealogy suggests? Some family researchers may have confused two or more Henry Northups of this time period. For the time being, I am assuming there was one Mary for this particular husband.

    Henry & Mary Northup signed a deed dated 13 March 1711/12, along with Thomas & Hannah Place. Another record states that Henry Northup & Thomas Place bought land in a partnership about March 1716/17.

    Henry married Mary Kingsley Abt 1688. Mary was born Abt 1665; died Between 13 Mar 1711/12 and 1740. [Group Sheet]

    If correct, this entry is evidence that Henry had a son named Benjamin, who probably would have been at least age 21 in 1736. However, no son named Benjamin is mentioned in what remains of Henry's will.

Generation: 3

  1. 7.  Henry (1) Northup Descendancy chart to this point (5.Immanuel2, 1.Henry1) was born 7 Aug 1722, North Kingstown, RI; died Between 1722 and 1723.

  2. 8.  Henry (2) Northup Descendancy chart to this point (5.Immanuel2, 1.Henry1) was born 9 Feb 1723/24, North Kingstown, RI; died Between 1724 and 1729.

  3. 9.  Elizabeth Northup Descendancy chart to this point (5.Immanuel2, 1.Henry1) was born Between 1725 and 1726.

    Notes:

    I am not sure that Elizabeth is a daughter of Ann, but since she has a son named George, I have placed her in the time frame of Ann's children (Ann was a daughter of George Tibbitts). Elizabeth Gardner is mentioned as a daughter in Immanuel's will, and three Gardner grandchildren are also mentioned: George, Wanton, & Sarah.

    Elizabeth married Huling Gardner 1 Feb 1767, North Kingstown, RI. [Group Sheet]

  4. 10.  George Northup Descendancy chart to this point (5.Immanuel2, 1.Henry1) was born 7 Aug 1727, North Kingstown, RI; died Bef 1790.

    Notes:

    I am making an assumption that this Frances, wife/widow of George Northup, is the wife of this particular George Northup. She is mentioned in the will of her mother, Patience Congdon, who died in 1800. This will also mentions the names of Frances's three daughters.

    George — Frances Congdon. [Group Sheet]

    Children:

  5. 11.  Henry (3) Northup Descendancy chart to this point (5.Immanuel2, 1.Henry1) was born 26 Jun 1729, North Kingstown, RI; died Aft 1790.

    Notes:

    Three grandsons -- Nicholas Carr, Clarke, & George -- are mentioned in the will of Immanuel Northup; the context suggests at least one or more may be sons of Henry. I am putting George in this family group pending further research. However, he may be a son of one of Henry's brothers.

    This Henry Northup may be the one who married Mary Gardiner, b.c.1752, d/o Capt. John Holmes Gardiner, of Newport. She died the 46-year-old widow of Henry Northup of North Kingstown, RI, on 20 June 1798 at Hoosick, NY; recorded at Newport, RI.
