A NEW BLOG FOR FAMILY HISTORY!!!!!!

Hello All,

We are starting a blog so anyone wanting to do family history can have the latest research information that Sandy and I have done. We are working on the Harvey line. This line connects with us as follows:

Richard Monson’s mother was Martha Jesina Allred.

Martha Jesina Allred’s parents were—J Urban Allred and Amelia May Hammond

Amelia May Hammond’s parents were—Francis Asbury Hammond and Mary Jane Dilworth

Mary Jane Dilworth’s parents were—Caleb Dilworth and Eliza Woolerton

Eliza Woolerton’s parents were—William Woolerton and Rebecca Harvey

Rebecca Harvey’s parents were—Samuel Harvey and Martha Martin

At this point, the line had stopped. However, we found who Samuel Harvey’s parents, grandparents, children, etc. were through our research. Below is a summary of our evidence that Samuel Harvey’s father was Job Harvey and Job’s father was also named Job.

We have also put digital copies of the documents we used as evidence on the blog.

OUR EVIDENCE FOR PARENTS OF SAMUEL HARVEY BEING JOB Jr.AND HANNAH. JOB Jr. PARENTS BEING JOB AND MARY BETHEL

Parents: (Job Harvey and Mary Bethel)
We believe Job2 Harvey’s father was Job Harvey for the following reasons:
1. Profession of both are listed as fullers (see Image #1--Calendar of wills and Image #2--Book reference ).
2. The will of Job 1 lists a son known as Job (see Image #3)
3. Darby, Chester Pennsylvania (where Job1 died) and Newcastle Pennsylvania (where Job2 died) are close (see Image#4)
4. Quaker records of birth fit. A record containing the list of births, marriages, removals and burial recorded in the Darby Monthly meeting of 1682 to 1891 lists Job2’s birthdate and parents (see Image#5)
5. Job 1’s will gives Job 2 a tract of land in Charlestown and when Job 2 dies this tract reverts to his two Grandsons (see Image#6). Samuel, Job2’s son, dies in Charlestown (see Image#7).
6. Tax records of Charlestown list Samuel Harvey as a fuller and owning 200 acres of land in Charlestown (see Image#8)
7. A will of Joseph Harvey, Samuel Harvey's brother, lists Joseph's father's name as Job of Pencadur. It also lists Samuel's daugher as Rebecca Woolerton so we know Samuel is of our lineage. (see Image #9a)

Birthdate:
Job2 was born 24 Jan 1711 (see Image#5 above)

Children:
Job2 had the following children:
Job, Josiah, Susannah, Elizabeth, Joseph, Samuel, William, Jemima and Keziah. (See Image#9)

Marriages:
It appears that Job2 Harvey was married at least two times: The first time to Hannah and the second time to Elizabeth Harvey. This conclusion is based on the following documents:

A book called “First Families of Chester County Pennsylvania”, names his first wife as “Hannah” and his second wife as Martha Smith Parker (though I know this second wife is in error—his father married Martha Parker, not Job Jr.) (see Image#10)

A book called “Early Church Records of Delaware County” lists Hannah Harvey, wife of Job Harvey Jr. (See Image#11)

A book called “A Calendar of Wills and Administrations” lists Job Harvey with his wife Elizabeth Harvey as executor of his Estate. (See Image#12)


Death:
Job2 died in 1766 (See Image#13)

Ordinance Work:
The ordinance work has been done for the children and spouses, except as of Jan09, the sealing of William Harvey to parents had not been completed.
