1790 Peter Boseman on South Carolina census, Cheraw District, Rev War Patriot in Alabama by 1830 census - Annie Carter Cochran's ancestor ========= George Little, Rev War Patriot, ancestor of Frankie Cochran, was wounded in Am Rev by Tarleton's men =========== Jan 6, 1705 - Court at Dennis Macclenden's house - Ralph Boasman, who immigrated to Perquimans Co from Surry County, VA had rights proven for importing Samuel, Elizabeth, Mercy, and Susannah Bond, Matthew Potter, Sarah Johnson, and Luke Grace Jul 9, 1706 - Court at Dennis Macclenden - Ralph Bosman was appointed Constable Ralph Boseman (Bozeman, Boazman, Bozman) is one of my ancestors. I found a will from Perquimans County for SAMUEL PHELPS 21 April 1728, in which the land he is leaving his son son Jonathan is described as - 200 acres beginning at ye Black Walnut branch, so running over ye Long Branch to Ralph BOSEMAN fence, belonging & joining to my dwelling plantation. Can anyone look up deed records or land grants for this property? I believe Ralph Boseman was married to Mary Branch. Their son Samuel, born 1684 in NC, is my ancestor. TARLETON - Roger Tarleton had 50 acres in 1674 adjacent that of Wm Smealy + Ralph Boseman. Does anyone know anything more about Roger. Scource was from a book or book chapter "Cavaliers + Pioneers" pg 150 Can anyone make this a more thorough rederance. Sep === researching my Cottingham family line in 1790 Cheraw District, SC, which is solidly connected all the way back to George Cottingham who at age 20 was one of 138 passengers who set sail from London on 27 July 1635 headed for Virginia. He soon moved from the Northamption/Accomack area of VA up into Somerset Co, MD, as did William Bosman who was in VA as some time before 1649. William Bosman was still on the tax rolls of Northamption Co, VA, in 1662, but had disappeared by 1676 when Peter Bosman showed up there. I include this introduction to suggest that the Peter Boseman that I found in the 1790 census of Cheraw District, SC, might well descend from the MD Bosman families. The Cottingham family in Somerset Co, MD, had associations with Beauchamp, Kellum, and Conner families, and I see all of those names in the part of Cheraw District that later became Marlboro Co, SC. In the 1790 cesus, Peter Boseman was the only male in his household, and there were four females. A little more searching revealed that Peter Boseman had married Sarah Brown on 28 Dec. 1787. Three daughters in three years is growing the family rather fast unless one or more of them had previously been married or had relatives with them in 1790. While I was able to do little else, I read a few books, with one of those being "Huey Long" by T. Harry Williams. Harley B. Bozeman was a good friend of Huey P. Long, and is referenced no fewer than 16 times. Also mentioned as a bodyguard was a former prize fighter called Harry “Battling” Bozeman. A foot note in the book says that he was not related to Huey's friend Harley B. Bozeman, but this seems a little strange. H. B. Bozeman first remembered meeting Huey Long in 1905 when Harley was 14 and was about to buy a pair of shoes in Winnfield, LA, when Huey loudly told him that he was being charged too much and was being cheated. The Bozeman family had just moved into the area from the town of Dodson, and their new home there was being built on a field that had belonged to the Long family. They were said to have become the best of friends. In 1908 Harley and Huey sold magazines from door to door, and in 1909 in their junior year in high school they represented the school in debates held at LSU. After high school, Harley and Huey became traveling salesmen for the Faultless Starch Company. When Huey Long became Governor in 1928, Harley Bozeman was elected to the state legislature from Winn Parish and became a key figure in the Huey Long administration. Well, here I have gone from the Primrose in 1635 to Huey P. Long in 1928, ============ Have you seen this abstract before? The Virginia Genealogist, Vol 22:245 Southampton County Tithables, 1770 William Boseman & son Jordan Boseman I found this a couple of years ago but, when I saw it again tonight, something clicked and I went looking. Sure enough, your ancestor is Thomas William Bozeman, b 1790-1800. One of his sons was Jordan W. Bozeman. This may be a coincidence but, then again, maybe not. Thanks for the information Steve. This is something I need to research. The name Jordan is common with my family. I am still stuck trying to find the father of Thomas Bozeman. ========== Click here: mcelroy George W.

This is the grave of Sergeant John George, a Revolutionary War veteran of the First Battalion of the New Jersey Continental Line. Through extensive and alert research by Chester Swift of Indianapolis into Revolutionary war records, muster rolls, field reports, pension records, etc., there is evidence that Sergeant George might have been the personal drummer boy of Washington's Headquarters Guard during a large portion of the Revolutionary War. John George was born in Raritan, New Jersey, on November 11, 1759. On January 1, 1777, at the age of 17, George enlisted as a private in Captain John Flahaven's company of Col. Matthias Ogden's First New Jersey Battalion. On September 8th of that year, Private George, who was listed on the company's rolls as a drummer, fought in his first battle, a short engagement at Clay Creek, which was a prelude to the important Battle of Brandywine. Later, Ogden's battalion was to participate in the battles of Germantown and Monmouth, serving as a part of the famous Maxwell Brigade. The Maxwell Brigade served during the entire war under the personal command of General Washington and was considered to be one of the elite units of the American army. According to John George's service records, he served his first three-year enlistment as a private and a drummer with the brigade at a salary of $7.30 a month. When his three-year enlistment expired, George reenlisted as a sergeant in Captain Aaron Ogden's company of the First Battalion (Maxwell's Brigade) for the duration of the war. The First Battalion wintered with Washington at historic Valley Forge in the snows of 1777-78. It was also present at Yorktown when British General Cornwallis surrendered his command in October of 1781. After the actual fighting ended in the war, Sergeant George continued to serve with the Continental Army until the peace treaty was signed in 1783. Records indicate that he was discharged along with the last of Washington's Guard at New Windsor, New York, in June of 1783. He and other members of the Guard were decorated with the badge of Military Merit by Washington in recognition of their more than six years of faithful service to his commander. After his discharge from the army, Sergeant George migrated to Mercer County, Kentucky, to receive his 100 acre veteran's land grant for his wartime service. His Kentucky farm was near the historic old frontier settlement of Harrodsburg. The old veteran farmed his land grant for over fifty years. While farming in Mercer County, George married and raised a large family. In 1821, George applied for and received a Revolutionary War pension for his military service almost forty years previous. He first received nine dollars a month, but his pension records indicates that this was later increased to twelve dollars because he had been a non-commissioned officer. At the death of his wife in Mercer County, George migrated to Perry Township in Marion County, Indiana, to reside with his daughter and her husband. This was in June of 1838, and the old drummer was now about eighty years of age. His daughter had married Peter Stuck and their residence was just east of where the campus of Indiana Central College is now located. The old soldier lived with the Stucks until his death on November 28, 1847. He was buried in an early Perry Township cemetery, Round Hill Cemetery, now at the intersection of Epler Road and South Meridian Street. His grave is just a few yards from the main entrance of the cemetery and is marked with the usual simple government stone. Down through the years, the older residents of Perry Township have maintained that Sergeant George was definitely a drummer boy of Washington's Guard and many claimed to have seen a certificate signed by Washington personally, confirming George's assignment as a drummer with the Guard. The certificate has been lost for many years, but the research of Revolutionary War records indicates that John George could have been the Guard's drummer for more than half of the war. The Great old soldier's great-great grand son, Colonel Walter H. Unversaw now lives in Kokomo, and is chairman of a memorial fund that is raising money to erect a suitable monument at the grave of Sergeant John George. The monument will be a life size figure of a Revolutionary war drummer boy, honoring the "Legendary" drummer boy of George Washington, now buried in a almost forgotten grave in Indiana.
