Posted by: Rich Houghton Date: May 14, 1999 at 11:38:27.

I'm looking for additional information on Jonathan Franklin, especially on his ancestry. What I know so far: Jonathan Franklin (Jonathan . . . ) was born before 1693, perhaps in Hingham, Plymouth County, Massachusetts. He was the son of Jonathan Franklin, Sr., and Sarah Smith.

On 2 December 1718, he married ESTHER-5 PARMELEE in Killingworth, Connecticut. Esther was the daughter of Nathaniel Parmelee and Esther Kelsey, and was born in Killingworth on 6 October 1698. T

Jonathan and Esther were members of the First Congregational Church of Killingworth. Church records note that a Jonathan Franklin was admitted to the covenant on 28 August 1743, but it is unclear whether it was Jonathan or his son.

Jonathan died in Killingworth in 1761, sometime between 23 February, when his will was written, and 17 March, when it was proven in court.

WILL

The total for this inventory was 246.14.04. The two inventories together amounted to 270.15.05, and minus the debts against the estate totaled 250.13.02.

Esther appears to have remained a widow for the rest of her life, and died in Killingworth on 20 June 1788. There do not appear to be any probate documents on record for her.

Pierson Genealogical Records by Lizzie B Pierson [1878]:10+. Abraham graduated from Trinity College Cambridge England in 1632. Arrived in America 1639. First in Boston whre he was ordained as Congregational minister then moving to Lynn Massachusetts 1640. He then moved to Southampton Long Island trying to make a settlement on the west end but the Dutch did not welcome them so retreated to east end of Long Island. Stayed until 1647 moving to Branford Connecticut. While living in this town he befriended the Indians learning their language he prepared a catechism for them giving them the opportunity to know God. Abraham opposed the union of the two colonies of Connecticut and New Haven. He also disapproved of the clergy in the Connecticut colony concerning infant baptism. In that time period no one could be made freeman unless in full communion with the church. He moved again in 1666 to Newark New Jersey with most of his congregation purchassing land from the Indians laying the foundation for this city. Some sixty five men had followed him to this new settlement. The church organization he brought with him later became Presbyterian Church. He lived among his church members for twelve years dying there 9 Aug 1678.

Narratives of Newark(In New Jersey) by David Lawrence Pierson, [1916]: 31-33:

"If God takes me away by this sickness, or until I have made a more formal will,

of a future date, then I do make and constitute this my last will and testament,

being firmly persuaded of the everlasting welfare of my soul's estate and my

body's resurrection to eternal life by Jesus Christ, my dear and precious

Redeemer.

Imprimis. I will that all my debts be duly and truly paid as they are expressed

and recorded in my broad book for reckoning, which I brought from Brandford,

being carefully understood because of imperfections of the writing, or whatever

else shall appear due to any though not there recorded.

2dly. That my wife shall have the thirds of my whole estate, to whose love and

faithfulness I commit the bringing up of my children and do appoint her my sole

executrix and give her my great Bible and what other English books she pleaseth

to choose.

3dly. For my choice and precious daughter Davenport I will that her hundred

pounds be made good, which I promised her upon her marriage, always provided

that if upon just account of mine estate and debts, my other daughters have an

hundred pounds a piece, that she shall be advanced as much as any.

4th. For my son Abraham, I do will that besides what he has had, or any horse

kind he hath that he shall have all my books (except what by particulars I give

to any) together with the frame belonging to the books; upon which consideration

I will that he sh. pay back again to the estate eight pounds in part of the

portion of my daughter Mary, upon her marriage day, or two after. For my next

three sons, Thomas, Theophilus and Isaac, I will that they sh. have my whole

accommodation of lands layed out or to be layed out within the limits of this

plantation, always provided that my wife's thirds shall be at her sole disposal,

during the continuance of her natural life. For my son Thomas, I do not bring in

on his account either the home lot which the town gave him, or any horse kind

which in former times I gave Him. I will that he have a sufficient house lot

upon his home lot in part of portion, and do give him Dr. Hall his paraphrase

upon the Bible as a token of my love. For my two youngest sons, I would have

them in due time to have each of them half of the homestead. Finally, all my

just debts paid and my wife's thirds kept entire, I would have the whole of my

remaining estate to be divided as portions to the rest of my children to wit: my

three sons and four daughters according to equal valuations and proportions, the

same to be payable on the day of their respective marriages, or one month after;

but if they be not married, then, the male children--their portions sh. be

payable when they are of the age of twenty.

Furthermore, I would have my two lesser boys, to be taught to read the Eng.

tongue and to write a legible hand, and all my chd. that be at home with me to

have each of them a new Eng. Bible and a good Eng. book out of the library, such

as they by the advice of their mother sh. choose. Likewise, I do request and

hereby ordain my trusty and well beloved brethren and friends, Mr. Jasper Crane,

Mr. Rob. Treat, Lieut. Swaine, Brother Tompkins, Bro. Lawrence and Bro. Sergeant

Ward, to become supervisors of this my last will and testament, to be helpful

unto my wife, and to see that this my last will be faithfully executed, and when

any one of these sh. die or depart the place, the rest sh. with my wife's

consent appoint some faithful man to fill up the empty place. In witness

whereunto I have set my hand, the day and year first above written."

ABRAHAM PIERSON.

Witness, THOMAS PIERSON.

The above Thos. Pierson doth make oath th. this the last will and testament of

the deceased Abr. Pierson, and th. he knows of none other. Sworn before me, the

12th of Mar. 1678. A true copy. CHAS. G. M. McCHESNEY, Register.

The net value of Rev. Abraham Pierson's estate was 822 pounds, a portion of

which was incorporated in the library of 440 volumes, one of the largest private

collections of books in the Western World. Best of all was the legacy of a good

name which he bequeathed to posterity, and the influence of which is felt in our

community in this remote day.

History of Newark N.J. page 25

"Reverend Abraham Pierson is buried in Old Burying Ground, Newark, N.J." "Newark, N.J. was named for the birthplace in England of its first pastor Rev. Abraham Pierson. (Newark -on-Tresn, Eng.) whence the name Newark-on-Passiac suggested itself."

Full Context of Connecticut Puritan Settlers, 1633-1845: First Settlers of the Colony. Pierson, Rev. Abraham, was the first clergyman settled at Branford. He united with Davenport in opposing the union of the two colonies in 1665 with great inflexibility. He was rigid to excess in church communion, and disapproved of the liberality of the clergy in the Connecticut colony in this respect; he differed with them upon the ordinance of infant baptism, &c., as no person in the New Haven colony could be made a freeman unless he was in full communion with the church. He fully agreed with Davenport and some others in that colony, that no other government than that of the church should be maintained in the colony, and opposed any union with Connecticut for the reason that a good character and an orderly walk, with 30 estate, or had held office in the colony, was all that was required to make a man a freeman in the colony of Connecticut, which would mar the order and purity of the churches. And he unquestionably feared it might weaken the power of the clergy, who had possessed the entire control of the government over the people of the colony of New Haven. Indeed Mr. Pierson was so much dissatisfied, and most of his church and congregation united with him, (Dr. Trumbull says) that they soon left Branford and removed to Newark, N. J., and carried with them, not only the records of the church but the town records also. After it had been settled about 25 years, he left the place nearly destitute of inhabitants; and Branford was not resettled until about 20 years after Mr. Pierson left it. Some of his descendants are now of the best families in New Haven and Hartford. He was from Yorkshire, England, and came to Boston and was there a member of the church--he went from thence to South Hampton, L. I., as their minister, and from thence he removed with a part of his church to Branford, and for the cause before related, he with his church removed to Newark, where many of his descendants now reside. (He is noticed in this work because South Hampton had been under the government of Connecticut.)

From: typehey@worldnet.att.net (Judith K Werner)

To: TCT222@aol.com, NORTON-L@rootsweb.com

Hi Tracy --

The mother of Thomas of Guilford was Dionise CHOLMELEY, sometimes spelled

Dionis, Dyonise, Dionisia, etc. But Dennis or Demis it isn't. Dionise was

an uncommon name in her time; I read somewhere that during Victorian times

it enjoyed a brief popularity but is not used today.

There are a number of spellings for CHOLMELEY, but from documents I have

seen Dionise's family spelled it this way, which is a shortened version of

CHOLMONDELEY or CHALMONDELEY, so it's not unusual to see it also spelled

CHALMELEY also. Anyway, they're all pronounced CHUM-lee as far as I know.

Cheemsley and Cholmesky are off.



Children of William NORTON and Dionise CHOLMELEY were as follows:

80 i Thomas7 NORTON, born 1609; died 16 May 1648 in Guilford New Haven Co Connecticut.
