Notes:

George L. Nottage and John Bezeley both witnessed a will in Cranston in 1848, for a singlewoman named Huldah Rose.

In the Federal Census of 1850, the family is living in Cranston: George L. Nottage 58 MA tin plate worker, Sarah L. 59 MA, Edward W. 30 MA tin plate worker, John S. 24 CT carpenter, Olive B. Tilden 22 RI, Francis P. Tilden 24 MA hatter, George N. Simmons 20 RI painter, Mary E. Simmons 19 RI, Charles H. Nottage 17 RI store clerk, Dorcas S. Nottage 29 RI, George E. Nottage 6 RI, Susan A. Nottage 4 RI, and Charity M. Nottage 2 RI.

The family is living next to the family of George W. Ellis, and near the family of John & Celia Beazely.

In 1860 the Nottage family is living at Knightsville, Cranston, Providence Co., RI. I have made an assumption that John S. is their son because he is living next door with his own family. It is possible that a daughter, Sarah L. Beazely age 21, is living in the household with her husband. Or, Sarah's husband may be the son of Almira, George's second wife.

In 1870 George L. & Almira Nottage are living at Providence, RI. Sarah L. Johnston, 29, is in the household.

According to a genealogy from Rosemarie Mello, the Nottage family are descendants of many famous personages among European royalty.

George married Sarah "Sally" Smith Stevens 27 Aug 1814, Boston, MA. Sarah was born 30 Mar 1791, Glocester, MA; died 18 Aug 1852, RI. [Group Sheet]

Edward and moved to California in the early 1850s. He became well-known in San Diego as "Cast Iron Nottage" in his trade doing gas fitting, plumbing, and metal roofing. He also held office as a politician:

The notice of his second marriage was announced in the Sacramento Daily Union of 28 Nov 1853:
"Mr. Edward W. Nottage of Providence, RI, to Mrs. Brazilla Thomas of St. Louis, MO, at San Francisco, 24 Nov 1853."

Edward married Dorcas S. Worden Abt 1843. Dorcas was born Abt 1821, RI; died Aft 1 Jun 1850. [Group Sheet]

Edward married Brazilla Thomas 28 Nov 1853, San Francisco, CA. Brazilla died Aft Jan 1882. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

His date of birth is difficult to read in the family Bible.

In the 1860 Federal Census, this family is living at Knightsville, Cranston, Providence, Co., RI. They are next door to George & Almira Nottage, so I am assuming John is their son.

Records show that John & Rebecca had a son stillborn 29 June 1863 at Cranston (familysearch.org).

In 1870 John & Rebecca have moved to Providence, RI, in the 9th Ward, as have also George & Almira.

In the RI State Census of 1885, John S. Nottage age 60 is in East Providence.

The following exceprt is from "The Seventh Regiment of RI Volunteers in the Civil War, 1862 - 1865" by William P. Hopkins, Snow & Farmham Printers, Providence, RI, 1903; p 405 [http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~rigenweb/article57.html]

JOHN S. NOTTAGE. Sergeant John Sterry Nottage was born in Norwich, Conn., July 9, 1826. He had two brothers and one or more sisters. His father was a tin and sheet iron worker and dealer in stoves. When two years of age or thereabouts, the family moved to Providence. Soon he was sent to a private school presided over by a Mrs. Hodges, and her daughter, Julia. Later he attended the public school on Summer Street, Mr. Weston teacher. When entering upon manhood he learned the carpenter's trade, but at length ventured on a three years' whaling voyage. While thus absent his mother died, which was ever a source of grief. He was wounded in the head at Spottsylvania May 13, 1864, and was sent to Portsmouth Grove Hospital, where he was retained as at attendant upon his invalid comrades until his discharge. His wife was an invalid for many years, and he was caring for her when his younger brother, Charles H. Nottage, who had been commissary sergeant of the Fourth Rhode Island, died about 1896. He had obtained little rest day or night for thirteen weeks, and his constitution became overtaxed. In May of that year he had two paralytic shocks that rendered him unconscious, and deprived him of the power of speech. It was, indeed, barely possible to swallow food. At last the third and fatal shock supervened.

John married Rebeckah Maria Beazley 31 Mar 1853, Providence, RI. Rebeckah (daughter of Edward T. Beasley and Almira Ellis King) was born Abt 1830, RI; died 22 Nov 1897. [Group Sheet]
