Elizabeth Ann Unknown

Notes:

Elizabeth Munday is mentioned in the birth and death records of her son George. I have made an assumption that she is the first wife of this particular Nathaniel, based on location and time frame.

I have roughly estimated her birth year.

Elizabeth married Nathaniel Munday Bef 1799. Nathaniel (son of William Munday and Hannah King) was born 26 Nov 1755, Stamford, CT; died 2 Jan 1827, Wickford, North Kingstown, RI; was buried , Old Church Graveyard, Wickford, RI. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

Nathaniel Monday son of George was baptized as an "adult" at St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Wickford on 18 July 1819. It does not say how old he was. The church records also mention Captain George Monday and his wife Ann (baptized 1821), and daughters Elizabeth, Hannah, and Phebe, all baptized 2 Jan 1825. Ludowick and Daniel Updike were associated with this church in 1809.

George Munday and family are in the 1820 census at North Kingstown, RI. The family has 4 individuals: one male age 26-44, one female age 26-44, one male child under age 10, and one female child under age 10.

In 1840, George Munday and family are in Fall River, MA.

In the 1850 Census, they are still in Fall River: George Munday 60 (Nova Scotia?), Anna 59 RI, Hannah B. 27 RI, Phebe T. 26 RI, Lucy P. 21 RI; and George W. Whitaker 10 MA. George Munday is a clerk. His birthplace is not correct -- see his birth record in RI and death record in MA.

The death record at Fall River says he died at age 65 of lung fever. It gives his birthplace as RI, and names his parents as Nathaniel and Elizabeth, which agrees with his birth record.

George married Ann Unknown Abt 1818. Ann was born Abt 1791; died Aft 1850. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

He may be the Nathaniel Munday listed in the New Bedford City Directory of 1836 as a tailor.

In the 1860 census, Nathaniel is in Hoboken, Hudson Co., NJ: Nathanial Munday 42 RI engraver, Mary H. Munday 45 RI, Henry B. Baird 21 MA, George W. Whittaker 20 MA engraver (in 1850 with Nathaniel's father in Fall River), John B. Danley 19 PA, George F. Munday 3 (b. England), Margaret Cohen 20 Ireland, John G. Drew 37 MA, Phoebe Drew 36 MA, Charles L. Drew 6 NJ, Anna G. Drew 2 mos. NJ.

In the 1865 NJ Census, they are at Elizabeth, Union, NJ: Nathaniel, Mary, and Fred; also John G. and Phebe Drew -- I don't see their child.

In 1870 Nathaniel and Mary are in Elizabeth, Union, NJ; Nathaniel is still an engraver. I don't see that a young George is with them, but there is a 14-yr-old (b. England) who appears to L. Fredrick (?); also Louisa Turner, a domestic. George Whitaker, engraver, is next door or with them. He is married to Sarah and they have a young daughter, Lizzie.

In 1880, Nathaniel and Mary are in Livingston, Essex, NJ. His occupation is now farmer. The death record there in 1887 says he had lived there 32 years.

Their gravestone at Bristol says they adopted two children -- Fred and Zillah.

Nathaniel married Mary Harvey Batt 3 Jun 1843, Fall River, Bristol Co., MA. Mary (daughter of James Batt and Hannah Valdron) was born 13 Jul 1820, Bristol, RI; died 1 May 1908, Bristol, RI; was buried , North Burial Ground, Bristol, RI. [Group Sheet]

Phebe — John G. Drew. John was born Abt 1823, MA. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

George was adopted.

Notes:

Zillah was adopted (see gravestone at Bristol).
