McCOOL Family
NOTE: Most of this information was graciously shared over twenty years ago by a few researchers including Chaplain Dick McCool. If you have questions or further information on this family please contact me at the email link at the bottom of this page. We were sad to hear of the death in 2007 of Chaplain Richard McCool. On a brighter note, we have received further information from his niece, Kathryn McCool, about her McCool family. Also fortunately a connection was made with Tommy McCoole of Colerain, Co. Londonderry, NIR who had commissioned research on his ancestry through ownership documents for the farm in Toberhead. That research yields information that allows the following conclusions. All ages are estimated, and the relationships are confirmed by a (65 of 67 markers) DNA match between Timothy Benson McCool, a descendant of John McCool, Jr. of Delaware, and Thomas E. McCool, me, 4th Great Grand son of Benjamin McCool of Abbeville Co., SC. Source letters from: Thomas E. McCool and Gene McCool.
NOTE: This is a history from a McCool researcher emailed to me: "Another Loyalist from North Carolina, by the name of William Walker, also came to Upper Canada with his wife and ten children, about the same time as the McCool family. It seems quite likely that the McCool's and Walker knew each other in North Carolina. In any event, two of the McCool boys, William and Joseph, married two of William walker's daughters, namely Margaret and Sarah; and one of the McCool girls, named Margaret after her mother, married William Walker, Jr. son of the Loyalist, William Walker, Senior. I was unable to find any record of a marriage of the other son, Archibald McCool, Jr. But Martha McCool, was married by the year 1801 to John McCall of Charlottesville Township, and Mary McCool, when widowed by death of her husband Anthony Daugherty, shortly afterwards married again, this time to John Wells, of Townsend Township. Your Joseph McCool, married to Emma Wilson and father of David, was according to the 1851 census born about the year 1810 or 1811, and could have been the son of either William McCool and his wife Margaret Walker, or of Joseph McCool and his wife Sarah Walker, (Sally). The latter couple were married on 12 July 1803 (See Appendix "B"), and I feel it is likely that they were your Joseph's parents. In any event there seems little doubt that the paternal grandparents of your Joseph were Archibald and Margaret McCool, of Orange County, North Carolina, and that his maternal grandparents were William Walker, Senior, and his wife (name not known) also of North Carolina. It seems likely that further local research in North Carolina would reveal more about the McCool and Walker families prior to the American Revolution." End of Letter.
NOTE: I just received some things from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada reaffirming that Archibald was at the Siege of Charleston and it looks like he was not in the military, but was a 'wagon driver '.

ESTATE RECORDS: Estate Records of North Carolina VOL. XVI, 1782-1783: Margaret McCool to Governor Thomas Burke.
To His Excellency Thomas Burke, Governor of the State of North Carolina, The Humble Petition of Margaret McCool Most Humbly Sheweth:
That your petitioner is a poor woman, and has a large helpless family of Young Children to Support, one of which is Arrived to the Age of been Set on the muster list and has been Drafted. The boy is not Sufficient for the undertaking, nor at any rate fitting for the Service, nor is your Petitioner able to hire a Substitute in his room. Therefore I most humbly implore and Petition your Excellency that you will think and take pity on the distressed as an object truly deserving compassion, as what little work he did at times was the Chief help I had toward Supporting myself and family. I therefore once more most humbly implore that your Excellency will take your poor Distressed Petitioner's Case into Consideration and grant her liberty to have her poor simple boy at home under her own Care, as he is in no wise fitting to be anywhere Else; and your Petitioner will ever Pray.

FAMILY HISTORY: Archibald and Margaret McCool, before 1776, were living on a fairly prosperous farm in Orange County, NC. The McCool family consisted of four sons and three daughters. When the Revolutionary War broke out, this family sided with the British cause, and Archibald, the father, and his eldest son (whose name is not given possibly George), helped the British Troops and were both killed during the defense of Charlestown (Charleston). In 1794, after their farm and possessions had been confiscated because of their loyalty, Margaret McCool, widow of Archibald, made the long trek from North Carolina to the Niagara Peninsula of Upper Canada. In compensation for their losses, and because of their loyalty, and the death of her husband and eldest son, the name of Margaret McCool, widow of Archibald, was placed on the United Empire Loyalist List, and she and her family were given grants of Crown and in Norfolk County. Archibald and his son were not granted UEL status because they never resided in Canada.

FAMILY HISTORY: At the age of twenty one, Duncan McCall and his great friend Rob Monroe enlisted in 1756 in the 42nd Highlanders under the command of General Amherst and in 1758 they did service at Cape Breton under Colonel Wolfe at the capture of Louisburg. The following year Major-General Wolfe and his troops left Ireland to go against Quebec. At the Battle of Quebec, Donald and Rob took part in the capture of that strong fortress, and remained with the garrison through the winter. The following summer they were transferred to Philadelphia where after three years of service they were honorably discharged. They settled in New Jersey and began raising their families. When the Revolutionary War began the two friends joined General Clinton in Long Island, NY. Rob did not survive the war and when Donald moved his family to Nova Scotia he took the Monroe family with him. On the 5th day of June 1796 Donald, who at that time was passed sixty, and the others arrived at Long Point. Each family was granted land and they settled next to each other, Donald on Lot 14, Con 4 in Charlotteville.

HISTORICAL NOTE: "Historical Sketch of Villa Nova" Handwritten: 1954 by (author unknown) -- In the spring of 1850, or 104 years ago, the Regular Baptist Church was organized with twenty seven charter members. At the first covenant meeting thirteen days later when twenty two members were present Elder Jacob Goble was chosen as the first pastor or chairman of the newly organized church. There were several saw mills on the banks of the creek, one owned by Squire William Walker in front of Austin Smith's house. He (William Walker) lived where (Jno ?) Hockens (in 1954) lives, and was a magistrate and was the man who gave the property for the old cemetery. He (William Walker) was the first school teacher that Waterford had. The first store was owned and managed by John McLaren Sr. and stood on the corner across from the blacksmith shop which was owned and run by Mr. (Larson?). (----?) a store was built on the site where our present one stands and was owned by James Erskine. I wonder how many know that Villa Nova once had a Rifle Company (the rest unreadable). After the Finian Raid in 1866, Mr. John McLaren Sr. (the rest is unreadable).

FAMILY NOTE: Source: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/74968451/william-ruperd: William was arrested in 1905 after fatally shooting Henry Knight, the lover of his daughter Emma Ruperd Ogden. Emma ran away with Mr. Knight and when they returned, Mr. Knight shot dead her husband, Frederick Ogden, and one shot struck Emma's hand. William killed Mr. Knight in return. In September 1905, William Ruperd was acquitted of murder after a trial in Roscommon County court. I checked with the clerk's office and they said there are no records of the trial or case.
DIVORCE: Divorce Decree: Name: William Ruperd Spouse: Priscilla Delora Waldron Event Date and Place: 1906 Montcalm Co., MI: Court documents show William "commenced a course of unkind, harsh and cruel treatment towards" Priscilla. He was described as being a "man of great austerity of temper" who, during the marriage, "indulged in violent sallies of passion," and was verbally abusive using "very profane obscene" language.

OBITUARY: Canadian Champion, 17 Jun 1869: Adam Book - We have today to chronicle the death of Mr. Adam Book, Senr., the oldest settler in the Township of Ancaster, which occurred at his residence yesterday morning. The deceased came to Ancaster in 1789, from New Jersey. His father took up a large tract of land, 200 acres of which was still in the possession of Mr. Book, on which he has resided upwards of 80 years. The deceased gentleman was present at the battle of Lundy's Lane, and took an active part in the stirring events of 1812 under General Brock. Up to within a few hours of his death Mr. Book enjoyed excellent health, having on the day previous returned from Simcoe, where he had been on business. He was a good specimen of a class fast passing away, whose places it will be well for the country, if they are filled by men of like integrity and industry.

NEWS: Organizations: Mr. Ted Duck contributed land for a girls' softball team baseball diamond on the North end of his farm on Mud Street just east of the village of Grassie.
NEWS: (1972?) Grassie Ladies: Life in the small hamlet of Grassie has been a most rewarding adventure for Mesdames Lydia Elizabeth (Lizzie) Duck, Charlotte (Lottie) Walker and Minnie Irene Duck. A grand total of 250 years has been written in the family album of memories for these three ladies, who have lived in this small community for most of their lives. Family ties and kind neighborhood friends have contributed so much to their reserved ways of country life. Their names can be found on the same family tree, due primarily to marriages associated with their husbands. Mrs. Lizzie Duck, who was 90 years old this summer, has lived in Grassie since 1912 and still likes to talk about the years gone by. She has three grandchildren and three great grandchildren. "My husband and I had a wonderful and successful farming life, considering all the problems of this way of life," she commented. "I like meeting people and I like my friends to come and see me at my home. These lifelong friends mean a lot to me. "I also like visiting. About 35 ladies from the Fulton Church brought me a birthday cake a short time ago. Now I have three cakes after this big party." A Saturday evening buffet supper was held recently at Rock Chapel Church hall in honor of the three Grassie ladies. The supper was supervised by Mesdames Frances Sherritt, Jean Black, Ethel Vickers and Edith Vickers. "I was born in Grassie and lived there all of my life," remarked Mrs. Minnie Duck. "Life has been very good to me for these 80 years, as a mother of two girls and now a grandmother for 11 grandchildren. My grandchildren keep me feeling young again. "I was a public school teacher for 25 years, some before my marriage and the rest after my marriage. I like being part of a big family tree of relatives." The three ladies are related to one another by marriages and the details of such can be found on the Duck family tree of relations. Mrs. Lottie Walker, who has lived in Grassie since 1912 and who now is 80 years old, was born in Bracebridge. She later moved to Calgary, Alberta, then to her present home. This home is regarded as being 100 years old. "I like my grandchildren and I think I have had a very pleasant life," she commented. "I enjoy our family life and also like being a good member of the Grassie Gospel Church. "There have been many changes in things at Grassie partly due to the different people that have moved into the community. There also have been many changes in the church since I first started going to it many years ago." Mrs. Walker still likes to reminisce about the days gone by as a girl in Bracebridge. Music for this family party at Rock Chapel was contributed by Larry Duck at the piano and Stan Black and his violin. Charlotte Golwitzer, young daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Golwitzer, blew out the candles on her birthday cake before the cake-cutting ceremony involving the three honoured guests.

10. James Clendening Sr b. Knowlton Twp., Sussex Co., NJ d.bef. 26 Jan 1797 Newark, Lincoln Co., Ontario m., (unknown).
HISTORY: Book P, pg. 265 of the Council of Proprietors of West Jersey (survey return dated March 21, 1774, recorded May 5, 1774). The warrant for this land was originally issued to John Bullen (heir-at-law to James Bullen). That warrant passed through several hands between 1768-1774. James Clendening purchased that warrant by deed dated March 19, 1774. The land, originally estimated at 200 acres, was originally located in Hardwick Twp., Sussex Co., NJ Hardwick is the next town northeast of Knowlton Twp. The survey was drawn in a very strange shape, as it includes the inlet and the outlet of Sand Pond (a 16 acre lake), but not most of the middle of the pond. Mr. Clendening and his family settled on about 8 acres in the northern part of the property, well away from the pond. Very literally, this would have been the only area of tillable ground on the entire 200 acres. The site remains rugged yet truly beautiful. The cleared ground extended to the property line, which was the foot of the Kittatinny Ridge (then called Pahaqualong Mountain -- today, the Appalachian trail is located at the top of that ridge). The cleared area went down to a swamp and the Jacksonburg Creek (then called Stouts Brook). There sat the farm wedged in between the rocky geology of the mountain and the swampy forest below. To say the site was isolated would be an understatement. As the crow flies, the nearest neighbor was at least a mile away at the time. This area was one of the last places in Sussex/Warren Counties to be settled, and was primarily forested. A home was built, although we are unsure of any outbuildings. Ground was cleared, and a few stone rows were built. There, a small hand-dug spring exists that we do not yet know if Mr. Clendening dug, or another later farmer.
On December 11, 1778, the New Jersey Legislature passed an act allowing confiscation of lands held by Loyalists. On March 25, 1779, a judgement was entered against Mr. Clendening as a Loyalist, and the State of New Jersey became the owner of this tract. (This information was taken from deed book E-2, page 307, Sussex County Clerk's Office.) In or about 1815, the State transferred the land to Sussex County, which sold the land at auction to a Mr. Smyth. In 1825, Warren County was formed and the county line ran through the old Clendening tract. Most of the property was now located in Hardwick Township, Warren County. The extreme northeastern portion of the property (including the entirety of the plantation) was now located in Stillwater Township, Sussex County. The farm in Hardwick was used during the Clendening ownership, based on physical evidence discovered from the site during the recent archaeological investigation. Steve Kallesser is currently awaiting the archaeologists' report on the site. The websites below have pictures of the farm today. The bottom picture on this page (http://www.nobebosco.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=31&Itemid=1) shows some of the archaeology team sitting at the old spring on the Clendening plantation. This picture is also from the Clendening plantation, looking down towards the swamp. (http://www.nobebosco.org/index.php?option=com_easygallery&task=view&cid=273&Itemid=47).

McCOOL Family
NOTE: Most of this information was graciously shared over twenty years ago by a few researchers including Chaplain Dick McCool. If you have questions or further information on this family please contact me at the email link at the bottom of this page. We were sad to hear of the death in 2007 of Chaplain Richard McCool. On a brighter note, we have received further information from his niece, Kathryn McCool, about her McCool family. Also fortunately a connection was made with Tommy McCoole of Colerain, Co. Londonderry, NIR who had commissioned research on his ancestry through ownership documents for the farm in Toberhead. That research yields information that allows the following conclusions. All ages are estimated, and the relationships are confirmed by a (65 of 67 markers) DNA match between Timothy Benson McCool, a descendant of John McCool, Jr. of Delaware, and Thomas E. McCool, me, 4th Great Grand son of Benjamin McCool of Abbeville Co., SC. Source letters from: Thomas E. McCool and Gene McCool.
NOTE: This is a history from a McCool researcher emailed to me: "Another Loyalist from North Carolina, by the name of William Walker, also came to Upper Canada with his wife and ten children, about the same time as the McCool family. It seems quite likely that the McCool's and Walker knew each other in North Carolina. In any event, two of the McCool boys, William and Joseph, married two of William walker's daughters, namely Margaret and Sarah; and one of the McCool girls, named Margaret after her mother, married William Walker, Jr. son of the Loyalist, William Walker, Senior. I was unable to find any record of a marriage of the other son, Archibald McCool, Jr. But Martha McCool, was married by the year 1801 to John McCall of Charlottesville Township, and Mary McCool, when widowed by death of her husband Anthony Daugherty, shortly afterwards married again, this time to John Wells, of Townsend Township. Your Joseph McCool, married to Emma Wilson and father of David, was according to the 1851 census born about the year 1810 or 1811, and could have been the son of either William McCool and his wife Margaret Walker, or of Joseph McCool and his wife Sarah Walker, (Sally). The latter couple were married on 12 July 1803 (See Appendix "B"), and I feel it is likely that they were your Joseph's parents. In any event there seems little doubt that the paternal grandparents of your Joseph were Archibald and Margaret McCool, of Orange County, North Carolina, and that his maternal grandparents were William Walker, Senior, and his wife (name not known) also of North Carolina. It seems likely that further local research in North Carolina would reveal more about the McCool and Walker families prior to the American Revolution." End of Letter.
NOTE: I just received some things from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada reaffirming that Archibald was at the Siege of Charleston and it looks like he was not in the military, but was a 'wagon driver '.

To His Excellency Thomas Burke, Governor of the State of North Carolina, The Humble Petition of Margaret McCool Most Humbly Sheweth:
That your petitioner is a poor woman, and has a large helpless family of Young Children to Support, one of which is Arrived to the Age of been Set on the muster list and has been Drafted. The boy is not Sufficient for the undertaking, nor at any rate fitting for the Service, nor is your Petitioner able to hire a Substitute in his room. Therefore I most humbly implore and Petition your Excellency that you will think and take pity on the distressed as an object truly deserving compassion, as what little work he did at times was the Chief help I had toward Supporting myself and family. I therefore once more most humbly implore that your Excellency will take your poor Distressed Petitioner's Case into Consideration and grant her liberty to have her poor simple boy at home under her own Care, as he is in no wise fitting to be anywhere Else; and your Petitioner will ever Pray.
Signed: Margaret McCool (Written on back in Burke's handwriting): "No order can be taken until some person appears to give satisfaction relating to facts, &c."
FAMILY HISTORY: Archibald and Margaret McCool, before 1776, were living on a fairly prosperous farm in Orange County, NC. The McCool family consisted of four sons and three daughters. When the Revolutionary War broke out, this family sided with the British cause, and Archibald, the father, and his eldest son (whose name is not given possibly George), helped the British Troops and were both killed during the defense of Charlestown (Charleston). In 1794, after their farm and possessions had been confiscated because of their loyalty, Margaret McCool, widow of Archibald, made the long trek from North Carolina to the Niagara Peninsula of Upper Canada. In compensation for their losses, and because of their loyalty, and the death of her husband and eldest son, the name of Margaret McCool, widow of Archibald, was placed on the United Empire Loyalist List, and she and her family were given grants of Crown and in Norfolk County. Archibald and his son were not granted UEL status because they never resided in Canada.

FAMILY HISTORY: At the age of twenty one, Duncan McCall and his great friend Rob Monroe enlisted in 1756 in the 42nd Highlanders under the command of General Amherst and in 1758 they did service at Cape Breton under Colonel Wolfe at the capture of Louisburg. The following year Major-General Wolfe and his troops left Ireland to go against Quebec. At the Battle of Quebec, Donald and Rob took part in the capture of that strong fortress, and remained with the garrison through the winter. The following summer they were transferred to Philadelphia where after three years of service they were honorably discharged. They settled in New Jersey and began raising their families. When the Revolutionary War began the two friends joined General Clinton in Long Island, NY. Rob did not survive the war and when Donald moved his family to Nova Scotia he took the Monroe family with him. On the 5th day of June 1796 Donald, who at that time was passed sixty, and the others arrived at Long Point. Each family was granted land and they settled next to each other, Donald on Lot 14, Con 4 in Charlotteville. John McCall was thirty when the family arrived in Long Point and after his marriage settled on Lot 18, Con 6 in Charlotteville.

HISTORICAL NOTE: "Historical Sketch of Villa Nova" Handwritten: 1954 by (author unknown) -- In the spring of 1850, or 104 years ago, the Regular Baptist Church was organized with twenty seven charter members. At the first covenant meeting thirteen days later when twenty two members were present Elder Jacob Goble was chosen as the first pastor or chairman of the newly organized church. There were several saw mills on the banks of the creek, one owned by Squire William Walker in front of Austin Smith's house. He (William Walker) lived where (Jno ?) Hockens (in 1954) lives, and was a magistrate and was the man who gave the property for the old cemetery. He (William Walker) was the first school teacher that Waterford had. The first store was owned and managed by John McLaren Sr. and stood on the corner across from the blacksmith shop which was owned and run by Mr. (Larson?). (----?) a store was built on the site where our present one stands and was owned by James Erskine. I wonder how many know that Villa Nova once had a Rifle Company (the rest unreadable). After the Finian Raid in 1866, Mr. John McLaren Sr. (the rest is unreadable).

FAMILY NOTE: Source: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/74968451/william-ruperd: William was arrested in 1905 after fatally shooting Henry Knight, the lover of his daughter Emma Ruperd Ogden. Emma ran away with Mr. Knight and when they returned, Mr. Knight shot dead her husband, Frederick Ogden, and one shot struck Emma's hand. William killed Mr. Knight in return. In September 1905, William Ruperd was acquitted of murder after a trial in Roscommon County court. I checked with the clerk's office and they said there are no records of the trial or case.

OBITUARY: Canadian Champion, 17 Jun 1869: Adam Book - We have today to chronicle the death of Mr. Adam Book, Senr., the oldest settler in the Township of Ancaster, which occurred at his residence yesterday morning. The deceased came to Ancaster in 1789, from New Jersey. His father took up a large tract of land, 200 acres of which was still in the possession of Mr. Book, on which he has resided upwards of 80 years. The deceased gentleman was present at the battle of Lundy's Lane, and took an active part in the stirring events of 1812 under General Brock. Up to within a few hours of his death Mr. Book enjoyed excellent health, having on the day previous returned from Simcoe, where he had been on business. He was a good specimen of a class fast passing away, whose places it will be well for the country, if they are filled by men of like integrity and industry.

NEWS: Organizations: Mr. Ted Duck contributed land for a girls' softball team baseball diamond on the North end of his farm on Mud Street just east of the village of Grassie.
NEWS: (1972?) Grassie Ladies: Life in the small hamlet of Grassie has been a most rewarding adventure for Mesdames Lydia Elizabeth (Lizzie) Duck, Charlotte (Lottie) Walker and Minnie Irene Duck. A grand total of 250 years has been written in the family album of memories for these three ladies, who have lived in this small community for most of their lives. Family ties and kind neighborhood friends have contributed so much to their reserved ways of country life. Their names can be found on the same family tree, due primarily to marriages associated with their husbands. Mrs. Lizzie Duck, who was 90 years old this summer, has lived in Grassie since 1912 and still likes to talk about the years gone by. She has three grandchildren and three great grandchildren. "My husband and I had a wonderful and successful farming life, considering all the problems of this way of life," she commented. "I like meeting people and I like my friends to come and see me at my home. These lifelong friends mean a lot to me. "I also like visiting. About 35 ladies from the Fulton Church brought me a birthday cake a short time ago. Now I have three cakes after this big party." A Saturday evening buffet supper was held recently at Rock Chapel Church hall in honor of the three Grassie ladies. The supper was supervised by Mesdames Frances Sherritt, Jean Black, Ethel Vickers and Edith Vickers. "I was born in Grassie and lived there all of my life," remarked Mrs. Minnie Duck. "Life has been very good to me for these 80 years, as a mother of two girls and now a grandmother for 11 grandchildren. My grandchildren keep me feeling young again. "I was a public school teacher for 25 years, some before my marriage and the rest after my marriage. I like being part of a big family tree of relatives." The three ladies are related to one another by marriages and the details of such can be found on the Duck family tree of relations. Mrs. Lottie Walker, who has lived in Grassie since 1912 and who now is 80 years old, was born in Bracebridge. She later moved to Calgary, Alberta, then to her present home. This home is regarded as being 100 years old. "I like my grandchildren and I think I have had a very pleasant life," she commented. "I enjoy our family life and also like being a good member of the Grassie Gospel Church. "There have been many changes in things at Grassie partly due to the different people that have moved into the community. There also have been many changes in the church since I first started going to it many years ago." Mrs. Walker still likes to reminisce about the days gone by as a girl in Bracebridge. Music for this family party at Rock Chapel was contributed by Larry Duck at the piano and Stan Black and his violin. Charlotte Golwitzer, young daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Golwitzer, blew out the candles on her birthday cake before the cake-cutting ceremony involving the three honoured guests.

10. James Clendening Sr b. Knowlton Twp., Sussex Co., NJ d.bef. 26 Jan 1797 Newark, Lincoln Co., Ontario m., (unknown).
HISTORY: Book P, pg. 265 of the Council of Proprietors of West Jersey (survey return dated March 21, 1774, recorded May 5, 1774). The warrant for this land was originally issued to John Bullen (heir-at-law to James Bullen). That warrant passed through several hands between 1768-1774. James Clendening purchased that warrant by deed dated March 19, 1774. The land, originally estimated at 200 acres, was originally located in Hardwick Twp., Sussex Co., NJ Hardwick is the next town northeast of Knowlton Twp. The survey was drawn in a very strange shape, as it includes the inlet and the outlet of Sand Pond (a 16 acre lake), but not most of the middle of the pond. Mr. Clendening and his family settled on about 8 acres in the northern part of the property, well away from the pond. Very literally, this would have been the only area of tillable ground on the entire 200 acres. The site remains rugged yet truly beautiful. The cleared ground extended to the property line, which was the foot of the Kittatinny Ridge (then called Pahaqualong Mountain -- today, the Appalachian trail is located at the top of that ridge). The cleared area went down to a swamp and the Jacksonburg Creek (then called Stouts Brook). There sat the farm wedged in between the rocky geology of the mountain and the swampy forest below. To say the site was isolated would be an understatement. As the crow flies, the nearest neighbor was at least a mile away at the time. This area was one of the last places in Sussex/Warren Counties to be settled, and was primarily forested. A home was built, although we are unsure of any outbuildings. Ground was cleared, and a few stone rows were built. There, a small hand-dug spring exists that we do not yet know if Mr. Clendening dug, or another later farmer.
On December 11, 1778, the New Jersey Legislature passed an act allowing confiscation of lands held by Loyalists. On March 25, 1779, a judgement was entered against Mr. Clendening as a Loyalist, and the State of New Jersey became the owner of this tract. (This information was taken from deed book E-2, page 307, Sussex County Clerk's Office.) In or about 1815, the State transferred the land to Sussex County, which sold the land at auction to a Mr. Smyth. In 1825, Warren County was formed and the county line ran through the old Clendening tract. Most of the property was now located in Hardwick Township, Warren County. The extreme northeastern portion of the property (including the entirety of the plantation) was now located in Stillwater Township, Sussex County. The farm in Hardwick was used during the Clendening ownership, based on physical evidence discovered from the site during the recent archaeological investigation. Steve Kallesser is currently awaiting the archaeologists' report on the site. The websites below have pictures of the farm today. The bottom picture on this page (http://www.nobebosco.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=31&Itemid=1) shows some of the archaeology team sitting at the old spring on the Clendening plantation. This picture is also from the Clendening plantation, looking down towards the swamp. (http://www.nobebosco.org/index.php?option=com_easygallery&task=view&cid=273&Itemid=47).

McCOOL Family
NOTE: Most of this information was graciously shared over twenty years ago by a few researchers including Chaplain Dick McCool. If you have questions or further information on this family please contact me at the email link at the bottom of this page. We were sad to hear of the death in 2007 of Chaplain Richard McCool. On a brighter note, we have received further information from his niece, Kathryn McCool, about her McCool family. Also fortunately a connection was made with Tommy McCoole of Colerain, Co. Londonderry, NIR who had commissioned research on his ancestry through ownership documents for the farm in Toberhead. That research yields information that allows the following conclusions. All ages are estimated, and the relationships are confirmed by a (65 of 67 markers) DNA match between Timothy Benson McCool, a descendant of John McCool, Jr. of Delaware, and Thomas E. McCool, me, 4th Great Grand son of Benjamin McCool of Abbeville Co., SC. Source letters from: Thomas E. McCool and Gene McCool.
NOTE: This is a history from a McCool researcher emailed to me: "Another Loyalist from North Carolina, by the name of William Walker, also came to Upper Canada with his wife and ten children, about the same time as the McCool family. It seems quite likely that the McCool's and Walker knew each other in North Carolina. In any event, two of the McCool boys, William and Joseph, married two of William walker's daughters, namely Margaret and Sarah; and one of the McCool girls, named Margaret after her mother, married William Walker, Jr. son of the Loyalist, William Walker, Senior. I was unable to find any record of a marriage of the other son, Archibald McCool, Jr. But Martha McCool, was married by the year 1801 to John McCall of Charlottesville Township, and Mary McCool, when widowed by death of her husband Anthony Daugherty, shortly afterwards married again, this time to John Wells, of Townsend Township. Your Joseph McCool, married to Emma Wilson and father of David, was according to the 1851 census born about the year 1810 or 1811, and could have been the son of either William McCool and his wife Margaret Walker, or of Joseph McCool and his wife Sarah Walker, (Sally). The latter couple were married on 12 July 1803 (See Appendix "B"), and I feel it is likely that they were your Joseph's parents. In any event there seems little doubt that the paternal grandparents of your Joseph were Archibald and Margaret McCool, of Orange County, North Carolina, and that his maternal grandparents were William Walker, Senior, and his wife (name not known) also of North Carolina. It seems likely that further local research in North Carolina would reveal more about the McCool and Walker families prior to the American Revolution." End of Letter.
NOTE: I just received some things from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada reaffirming that Archibald was at the Siege of Charleston and it looks like he was not in the military, but was a 'wagon driver '.

ESTATE RECORDS: Estate Records of North Carolina VOL. XVI, 1782-1783: Margaret McCool to Governor Thomas Burke.
To His Excellency Thomas Burke, Governor of the State of North Carolina, The Humble Petition of Margaret McCool Most Humbly Sheweth:
That your petitioner is a poor woman, and has a large helpless family of Young Children to Support, one of which is Arrived to the Age of been Set on the muster list and has been Drafted. The boy is not Sufficient for the undertaking, nor at any rate fitting for the Service, nor is your Petitioner able to hire a Substitute in his room. Therefore I most humbly implore and Petition your Excellency that you will think and take pity on the distressed as an object truly deserving compassion, as what little work he did at times was the Chief help I had toward Supporting myself and family. I therefore once more most humbly implore that your Excellency will take your poor Distressed Petitioner's Case into Consideration and grant her liberty to have her poor simple boy at home under her own Care, as he is in no wise fitting to be anywhere Else; and your Petitioner will ever Pray.
Signed: Margaret McCool (Written on back in Burke's handwriting): "No order can be taken until some person appears to give satisfaction relating to facts, &c."
FAMILY HISTORY: Archibald and Margaret McCool, before 1776, were living on a fairly prosperous farm in Orange County, NC. The McCool family consisted of four sons and three daughters. When the Revolutionary War broke out, this family sided with the British cause, and Archibald, the father, and his eldest son (whose name is not given possibly George), helped the British Troops and were both killed during the defense of Charlestown (Charleston). In 1794, after their farm and possessions had been confiscated because of their loyalty, Margaret McCool, widow of Archibald, made the long trek from North Carolina to the Niagara Peninsula of Upper Canada. In compensation for their losses, and because of their loyalty, and the death of her husband and eldest son, the name of Margaret McCool, widow of Archibald, was placed on the United Empire Loyalist List, and she and her family were given grants of Crown and in Norfolk County. Archibald and his son were not granted UEL status because they never resided in Canada.

FAMILY HISTORY: At the age of twenty one, Duncan McCall and his great friend Rob Monroe enlisted in 1756 in the 42nd Highlanders under the command of General Amherst and in 1758 they did service at Cape Breton under Colonel Wolfe at the capture of Louisburg. The following year Major-General Wolfe and his troops left Ireland to go against Quebec. At the Battle of Quebec, Donald and Rob took part in the capture of that strong fortress, and remained with the garrison through the winter. The following summer they were transferred to Philadelphia where after three years of service they were honorably discharged. They settled in New Jersey and began raising their families. When the Revolutionary War began the two friends joined General Clinton in Long Island, NY. Rob did not survive the war and when Donald moved his family to Nova Scotia he took the Monroe family with him. On the 5th day of June 1796 Donald, who at that time was passed sixty, and the others arrived at Long Point. Each family was granted land and they settled next to each other, Donald on Lot 14, Con 4 in Charlotteville. John McCall was thirty when the family arrived in Long Point and after his marriage settled on Lot 18, Con 6 in Charlotteville.

HISTORICAL NOTE: "Historical Sketch of Villa Nova" Handwritten: 1954 by (author unknown) -- In the spring of 1850, or 104 years ago, the Regular Baptist Church was organized with twenty seven charter members. At the first covenant meeting thirteen days later when twenty two members were present Elder Jacob Goble was chosen as the first pastor or chairman of the newly organized church. There were several saw mills on the banks of the creek, one owned by Squire William Walker in front of Austin Smith's house. He (William Walker) lived where (Jno ?) Hockens (in 1954) lives, and was a magistrate and was the man who gave the property for the old cemetery. He (William Walker) was the first school teacher that Waterford had. The first store was owned and managed by John McLaren Sr. and stood on the corner across from the blacksmith shop which was owned and run by Mr. (Larson?). (----?) a store was built on the site where our present one stands and was owned by James Erskine. I wonder how many know that Villa Nova once had a Rifle Company (the rest unreadable). After the Finian Raid in 1866, Mr. John McLaren Sr. (the rest is unreadable).

In his will dated, 1803, a year before his death he wrote of being very sick and weak of body which could be why he didn't show up at the Council Chamber in 1802 for his petition for land.

OBITUARY: Canadian Champion, 17 Jun 1869: Adam Book - We have today to chronicle the death of Mr. Adam Book, Senr., the oldest settler in the Township of Ancaster, which occurred at his residence yesterday morning. The deceased came to Ancaster in 1789, from New Jersey. His father took up a large tract of land, 200 acres of which was still in the possession of Mr. Book, on which he has resided upwards of 80 years. The deceased gentleman was present at the battle of Lundy's Lane, and took an active part in the stirring events of 1812 under General Brock. Up to within a few hours of his death Mr. Book enjoyed excellent health, having on the day previous returned from Simcoe, where he had been on business. He was a good specimen of a class fast passing away, whose places it will be well for the country, if they are filled by men of like integrity and industry.

NEWS: (1972?) Grassie Ladies: Life in the small hamlet of Grassie has been a most rewarding adventure for Mesdames Lydia Elizabeth (Lizzie) Duck, Charlotte (Lottie) Walker and Minnie Irene Duck. A grand total of 250 years has been written in the family album of memories for these three ladies, who have lived in this small community for most of their lives. Family ties and kind neighborhood friends have contributed so much to their reserved ways of country life. Their names can be found on the same family tree, due primarily to marriages associated with their husbands. Mrs. Lizzie Duck, who was 90 years old this summer, has lived in Grassie since 1912 and still likes to talk about the years gone by. She has three grandchildren and three great grandchildren. "My husband and I had a wonderful and successful farming life, considering all the problems of this way of life," she commented. "I like meeting people and I like my friends to come and see me at my home. These lifelong friends mean a lot to me. "I also like visiting. About 35 ladies from the Fulton Church brought me a birthday cake a short time ago. Now I have three cakes after this big party." A Saturday evening buffet supper was held recently at Rock Chapel Church hall in honor of the three Grassie ladies. The supper was supervised by Mesdames Frances Sherritt, Jean Black, Ethel Vickers and Edith Vickers. "I was born in Grassie and lived there all of my life," remarked Mrs. Minnie Duck. "Life has been very good to me for these 80 years, as a mother of two girls and now a grandmother for 11 grandchildren. My grandchildren keep me feeling young again. "I was a public school teacher for 25 years, some before my marriage and the rest after my marriage. I like being part of a big family tree of relatives." The three ladies are related to one another by marriages and the details of such can be found on the Duck family tree of relations. Mrs. Lottie Walker, who has lived in Grassie since 1912 and who now is 80 years old, was born in Bracebridge. She later moved to Calgary, Alberta, then to her present home. This home is regarded as being 100 years old. "I like my grandchildren and I think I have had a very pleasant life," she commented. "I enjoy our family life and also like being a good member of the Grassie Gospel Church. "There have been many changes in things at Grassie partly due to the different people that have moved into the community. There also have been many changes in the church since I first started going to it many years ago." Mrs. Walker still likes to reminisce about the days gone by as a girl in Bracebridge. Music for this family party at Rock Chapel was contributed by Larry Duck at the piano and Stan Black and his violin. Charlotte Golwitzer, young daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Golwitzer, blew out the candles on her birthday cake before the cake-cutting ceremony involving the three honoured guests.

10. James Clendening Sr b. Knowlton Twp., Sussex Co., NJ d.bef. 26 Jan 1797 Newark, Lincoln Co., Ontario m., (unknown).
HISTORY: Book P, pg. 265 of the Council of Proprietors of West Jersey (survey return dated March 21, 1774, recorded May 5, 1774). The warrant for this land was originally issued to John Bullen (heir-at-law to James Bullen). That warrant passed through several hands between 1768-1774. James Clendening purchased that warrant by deed dated March 19, 1774. The land, originally estimated at 200 acres, was originally located in Hardwick Twp., Sussex Co., NJ Hardwick is the next town northeast of Knowlton Twp. The survey was drawn in a very strange shape, as it includes the inlet and the outlet of Sand Pond (a 16 acre lake), but not most of the middle of the pond. Mr. Clendening and his family settled on about 8 acres in the northern part of the property, well away from the pond. Very literally, this would have been the only area of tillable ground on the entire 200 acres. The site remains rugged yet truly beautiful. The cleared ground extended to the property line, which was the foot of the Kittatinny Ridge (then called Pahaqualong Mountain -- today, the Appalachian trail is located at the top of that ridge). The cleared area went down to a swamp and the Jacksonburg Creek (then called Stouts Brook). There sat the farm wedged in between the rocky geology of the mountain and the swampy forest below. To say the site was isolated would be an understatement. As the crow flies, the nearest neighbor was at least a mile away at the time. This area was one of the last places in Sussex/Warren Counties to be settled, and was primarily forested. A home was built, although we are unsure of any outbuildings. Ground was cleared, and a few stone rows were built. There, a small hand-dug spring exists that we do not yet know if Mr. Clendening dug, or another later farmer.
On December 11, 1778, the New Jersey Legislature passed an act allowing confiscation of lands held by Loyalists. On March 25, 1779, a judgement was entered against Mr. Clendening as a Loyalist, and the State of New Jersey became the owner of this tract. (This information was taken from deed book E-2, page 307, Sussex County Clerk's Office.) In or about 1815, the State transferred the land to Sussex County, which sold the land at auction to a Mr. Smyth. In 1825, Warren County was formed and the county line ran through the old Clendening tract. Most of the property was now located in Hardwick Township, Warren County. The extreme northeastern portion of the property (including the entirety of the plantation) was now located in Stillwater Township, Sussex County. The farm in Hardwick was used during the Clendening ownership, based on physical evidence discovered from the site during the recent archaeological investigation. Steve Kallesser is currently awaiting the archaeologists' report on the site. The websites below have pictures of the farm today. The bottom picture on this page (http://www.nobebosco.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=31&Itemid=1) shows some of the archaeology team sitting at the old spring on the Clendening plantation. This picture is also from the Clendening plantation, looking down towards the swamp. (http://www.nobebosco.org/index.php?option=com_easygallery&task=view&cid=273&Itemid=47).
