| Joseph York of Northwood's signature |
Birth* | Joseph York was born circa 1756.1 |
| This Joseph was a Revolutionary War soldier from Northwood. His place in the genealogy is not known.
Joseph York appears on a list of Nottingham men who served in the First NH Regiment of the Rev. War. He entered service on 1 Mar 1777 and was discharged in Dec 1781, but served again in 1782. [NH Provincial and State Papers, 12:100-1] In his pension papers he deposed about his service on 28 Mar 1818: "I Joseph York of Northwood in the County of Rockingham and State of Newhampshire aged sixty one years depose and say that I enlisted as a private soldier in the army of the revolution against Great Brittain in the month of March in 1777 for and during the war. That I immediately marched to Mount Independence (so called) in the State of New York and there joined the army. I was attached to Captain Amos Morrel's Company in the first New hampshire Regiment commanded by Col. Joseph Cilley. That I served in said Regiment untill the close of the war in 1783, when I received my discharge from the service purporting that I had served Honorably and faithfully during my enlistment which discharge I have since casually lost. That at the time of my enlistment I lived in the town of Nottingham in sd County of Rockingham and was enlisted by the said Capt. Amos Morril. And I further testify that by misfortune I am reduced in my circumstances and rendered very poor and indigent." [Ancestry.com, U.S., Revolutionary War Pension and Bounty-Land Warrant Application Files, 1800-1900, ]
Ancestry also has dozens of war muster and pay rolls where he is listed throughout the war. These often mention his current status, which varies from "on guard" to "sick present' and even "on Genl Lee's Gard" and "on Command in Genl Lee's Gard," the latter two on two rolls from June and July 1778 when he was stationed at White Plains. In June Gen. Charles Lee was second in command to George Washington in the army but at the Battle of Monmouth in New Jersey he performed so poorly in Washington's eyes that at the end of the month he had him arrested and court martialed. Lee was found guilty and suspended from the army for a year, but never served again.
Joseph York of Northwood signed two town petitions requesting that a Justice of the Peace be appointed for the town. Dated 10 Oct 1785 and 10 Nov 1785. [NH State and Provincial Papers, 12:94-5, Ancestry.com, New Hampshire, U.S., Government Petitions, 1700-1826, https://www.ancestry.com/imageviewer/collections/62199/images/62199_01_0361-00023>]
In 1786 the town of Northwood discounted many tax rates and on that list is "Joseph York rate discounted by his bringing a receipt that it was payd at Nottingham which sum is 0-17-6." [Northwood Town records, 1:208] This may imply that he moved there from Nottingham in 1786. He was taxed in Northwood in 1790. The amount of his tax was one of the lowest in town that year. [Northwood Town records, 1:102] At town meeting in 1794 it was voted "to give in Joseph Yorck's rates." [Northwood Town records, 1:133] This likely means that he was so poor that the town decided not to tax him.
On 15 Dec 1788 he signed a petition requesting improvement of the road between Northwood and the bridge over the Exeter River dividing Newmarket and Stratham. [NH Provincial and State Papers, 12:98-9]
In the 1790 census of Northwood his family was enumerated with 1 male over 16, 1 male under 16, and 1 female. Ten years later they were still in Northwood with 2 males under 10, 1 male 26-44, 3 females under 10, 1 female 26-44.
On 15 Dec 1814 Joseph York of Northwood, gentleman, was sued by John Harvey of Northwood, Esquire and Joel B. Virgin of Newmarket, trader, for non-payment of a $19.64 debt that he incurred at Northwood on 3 Feb 1813. Court papers don't include the outcome. [Rockingham Superior Court file 38135] It seems very possible that this may pertain to a different Joseph York given that he was referred to as 'gentleman' and our Joseph was very poor, as evidenced by his Revolutionary War Papers where John Harvey - presumably the same one who sued him in this case - declared that Joseph had never owned any real estate. But no other Joseph York is known to have lived in Northwood at this time so the title of 'gentleman' might not have had anything to do with his financial status.
A Joseph York, age 80, living in Strafford County, appears on an 1835 Revolutionary War pensioners list with his pension commencing on 28 Mar 1818, his name placed on the pension roll on 5 Mar 1819, receiving $96 annually. [NH Provincial and State Papers, 30:304-5] His pension papers at ancestry.com tell more of his life story. On 3 Feb 1819 John Harvey of Northwood, who was one of the judges of the Court of Common Pleas for Rockingham County deposed that he had been acquainted with Joseph York ever since the close of the Revolutionary War. Harvey said that Joseph "has never owned any property real or personal since that time other than a cow or hog; that he had a large family of children which the town has been oblige [sic] to support in a great measure; the he was industrious while able to labour he is now unable to do but very lit work of any kind; is very poore and lame & decrepit and dependant on the charity of the people for support." Joseph himself deposed again on 20 Jun 1820, then 62 years old, stating that he was then receiving a pension, and added: "My occupation is a labourer, but I have not sufficient ability to pursue it - am unable to labor, am lame. I have four in family residing with me, viz my wife aged about fifty one years, one son aged fourteen years, one daughter aged nine, & another daughter aged five. Their capacity to contribute to their support is such that they have no property and are unable to support themselves." That same day they added an inventory of his entire estate, which consisted of 1 cow, 1 swine, 6 old chairs, 1 chest, 1 broken tea table, 1 small pot, 1 fry pan, 1 wash tub, 2 water or milk pails, 3 cups & saucers, and 6 plates.
A table of pension payments with Joseph York's name on it shows payments made to him beginning 28 Mar 1818 ending in September 1826. Other names on the list show payments beyond that date, while others show a final payment followed by a note that the pensioner had died and when. But there is no such note for Joseph. The payments just stop. But he was likely still alive as he appears on the pension list of 1835 mentioned above.
There is a death record in Newmarket on 9 Jun 1888 for a Clarissa York, a single woman aged 83 years, 10 months, who was born in Northwood to a Joseph and Mary York. Aside from the name of the wife this sounds like it could be a daughter for our Joseph. So perhaps the death record got the wife's name wrong or he married again to a different woman named Mary. |

John York
M, b. circa 1745, d. 2 February 1803
This research is a work in progress, taken from sources of varying reliability. The information should be verified before being relied upon.
Birth* | John York was born circa 1745.1 |
Death* | He died on 2 February 1803 in Dover, Strafford County, New HampshireG.2 |
| In Oct 1783 John York of New Durham, husbandman, was sued by Elisha Thomas of New Durham for thirteen pounds four shillings and nine pence for a debt incurred in Dover on 25 Jun 1781. York directed Thomas to get payment for the debt from the "Paymaster of the New Hampshire forces" but when he wen to that paymaster for payment he was refused so the debt fell back on York. The outcome of the case is not included in the case papers. [Strafford County Superior Court Case #1783-43] This John York has not yet been placed in the genealogy. This is not likely to be the John York who lived in Middleton at the time as Middleton records show an almost year-by-year appearance in town meeting minutes during the time period around 1783. There was also an Ensign John York found in New Durham in Apr 1782 when his land was mentioned at the Town Meeting that year. [New Durham Town Records, 1:51] Ensign John York was taxed on one poll and one cow in New Durham in Apr 1784. Listed before and after him on this 1784 tax list was the widow Susannah York as well as James Palmer and James Palmer, Jr. [New Durham Town Records, 1:342]
The fact of the Palmers being neighbors of his argues for the possibility that he is the John York mentioned as grandchild, along with Susannah York, of James Goodwin in his 1757 will. That will also mentions James' daughter Susannah, who married James Palmer. The widow Susannah York who is another neighbor is currently unplaced as well. At the 1781 New Durham Town Meeting they voted to "take off and remit the Widow Yorks Rate for Year 1782." [New Durham Town Records, 1:115] She is probably the Susannah York found in the 1790 census of Middleton with one male under sixteen and two females. Might she be the other Goodwin grandchild who is mentioned by her maiden name as a widow instead of her married name, perhaps because she was living next to her brother? Or given that the will is vague as to who the mother of the Goodwin grandchildren is, and that mother could be the Susannah who married James Palmer, perhaps this widow Susannah York in New Durham in 1782-84 is Goodwin's daughter and her husband James Palmer was deceased. Then the records referred to her as Widow York instead of Widow Palmer because her son was John York. At present the John York who was born in 1746 and is son of Benjamin is being considered the main candidate to be the Goodwin grandchild, but a good case could be made for this unconnected John as well. And there is that John's brother David who appears in Revolutionary War records but not afterwards. He might be the deceased husband of the Widow Susannah, as there is a younger David York found in the 1810 census of New Durham a few years later. More research is necessary.
The next place we see an unplaced John in this area is in Dover. A John York of Dover, yeoman, appears as plaintiff in a lawsuit against Nathan Hanson of New Durham, husbandman, in 1789. He won judgment for six pounds nine shillings in damages in Aug 1789. [Strafford County Superior Court case #1789-112 and 1789-142] This shows a connection between John of Dover and the town of New Durham.
There is a John York family in the 1790 census of Dover with 1 male over 16, 3 males under 16 and 4 females. That John is presently unaccounted for in this genealogy.
Dover vital records record that an unnamed child of John York died 27 Jan 1791. [Vital Records of Dover, NH 1686-1850, Dover Historical Society, 1977, c1894, p.195]
In 1800 the Dover John York family appears in the census with 1 male under 10, 1 male 10-15, 3 males 16-25, 1 male 45+, 2 females under 10, 1 female 45+.
There is no York family in the 1810 census of Dover, which would seem to validate the possibility that the John York who died in Dover in 1803 was the same person. What became of his widow and children is unknown at present. If she remarried it would explain her absence from the census.
He might be the father of Zebulon York, who is also unattached in this genealogy. |

Solomon York
M, b. 1788, d. 1877
This research is a work in progress, taken from sources of varying reliability. The information should be verified before being relied upon.
Birth* | Solomon York was born in 1788 in Allenstown, Rockingham County, New HampshireG.1,2 |
Marriage* | He married Patience Giles on 20 August 1809 in Northwood, Rockingham County, New HampshireG.3,4 |
Death* | Solomon York died in 1877 in Brunswick, Cumberland County, MaineG.5,6 |
| Some of the information on Solomon's life comes from a county biographical review source published in 1897 that includes an entry on Solomon's grandson John W. York. Such sources are generally considered unreliable the further back in time you go as most of the information came from personal knowledge of the subject. So details of Solomon's life, including his places of birth and death, are only as reliable as the memories of his grandson unless the grandson had some written family record to use. On p. 329 of this source (citied in the notes for his birth) it says, "Solomon York, grandfather of John W., was born in Allenstown, Merrimack County, was a hard-working farmer, spent the greater part of his life in Deerfield, this State, and died in Brunswick, Me., at an advanced age. He supported the Democratic principles with his vote. Of his ten children seven attained maturity."
One error in the above that should be noted is that Merrimack County wasn't formed until 1823 so at the time Solomon was born Allenstown was in Rockingham County.
His birth being in Allenstown in 1788 makes it seem likely that he was the son of the Samuel York who appears in the 1790 census of Allenstown. There were two males under the age of 16 in that family. His Deerfield cemetery Find-a-Grave record states that his father was James York of Stonington, Conn., but this seems very unlikely and no proof was offered. The Biographical Review article with information from his grandson that he was born in Allenstown seems more reliable as a source, and the Samuel York entry in the 1790 census of Allenstown reinforces it. Unless other evidence of a different father comes to light he will for now be considered son of Samuel of Allenstown.
No Samuel York is found in the 1800 NH census, but there is some evidence he might have lived in Barnstead at some point, and the Barnstead 1800 census was lost.
The Biographical Review states that Solomon died in Brunswick, Maine "at an advanced age." Find-a-Grave does have a stone in Riverside Cemetery in Brunswick, Maine with a Solomon York who died in 1871. On the same stone is listed Charlotte D. Stone (1867-1886) and there are other Stone graves around. No relationship is stated but she is likely a descendant of Solomon. The grave marker is new so not the original for Solomon. He was likely added at the time Charlotte died. He would have been aged around 83 when he died based on census record ages, which qualifies as an 'advanced age.' On the other hand there is a stone in the Deerfield Cemetery naming both of them with their years of birth and death that is clearly for our Solomon. It even has Patience's maiden name. This was likely also added much later, probably by a descendant, so either stone - Brunswick or Deerfield - could be for the same person, with the wrong year of death on one of them. For the purposes of this genealogy the Deerfield stone, with full names of both, is the more reliable source so those dates of birth and death will be used, keeping in mind that the Brunswick 1871 date could also be right.
Both Solomon and Patience were living in Northwood when they were married in Aug 1809. The 1810 census found them still in Northwood with a young daughter under the age of nine who was probably just born. By 1820 they were living in Deerfield, N.H. and the family had grown considerably. They had 3 males 9 and under, 3 females 9 and under, and 1 female 10-15, in addition to Mom and Dad. Ten years later when the 1830 census was taken they were living in Nottingham, N.H. their familiy consisted of 1 male 10-14, 1 male 15-19, 1 male 30-39, 2 females 4 and under, 1 female 5-9, 1 female 10-14, 1 female 30-39, and 1 female 50-59. That older female is probably either a mother or aunt or older sibling to either Solomon or Patience. Of the three young boys and three young girls who were there in 1820 only 2 boys and 1 girl remain with the family. One or more might have died, or they might have been living with relatives or were working as servants or farm laborers elsewhere.
In 1840 the familiy was living in Newmarket. Solomon and Patience were in their 50s and only two apparently children were liiving with them. A female 15-19 and a female 20-29. The two very young girls found in the family in 1830 were not included so it seems likely that they had died. Between the three missing in 1830 and the two missing in 1840 that leaves five children unaccounted for. In all there were ten children recorded in the four censuses, which matches exactly with the information provided in the Biographical Review work quoted above. That work stated that only seven of the ten survived to maturity, so that means two of the five children unaccounted for in the census were apparently just not recorded with the family for some reason.
In the 1850 census Solomon was a 62-year-old farmer living in Deerfield with his 63-year-old wife Patience and 23-year-old daughter Matilda. Also living with them was 3-year-old Mary P. Giles, who may be a niece from Patience's side of the family. They were still living in Deerfield when the 1860 census was taken. Their ages are clearly wrong here as Solomon was listed as 63 and Patience as 64, only one year older than they were ten years earlier. Jonathan York, 46, was living with them, but this census doesn't specific relationships so he may or may not be a son. There was also 13 year old Mary York who is likely the Mary P. Giles from the 1850 census. Perhaps they adopted her and she took the York name, or the census taker just didn't get her last name right. Solomon was a farmer with real estate worth $800 and personal estate worth $250. All were born in N.H.
There are no deed records for him recorded in Rockingham County, N.H. |
