William Carter Stubbs. PREFACE, For many years the author of this pam2)lilet has been collecting data relative to the Catlett family of the United States. So far as our extensive investigations have been made, the only immigrants of this name to this country at any time were Col. John and his two minor sons, Xieholas and Thomas, who came over in 1650 and settled on the Eappahaunock Kiver in A^irginia. Therefore every one bearing this name must trace his descent back to Col. John or his two minor sons. Mr. W. G. Stannard, Editor of the Virginia Historical Magazine and Secretary of the Virginia Historical So¬ ciety—the highest authority on Virginia genealogies—entertains the same opinion. With this opinion, every one bearing this name, wherever found, has been requested by letter (sometimes several), to give all the information possessed or obtainable, of her or his branch and its history. Alany of these letters are still unanswered, and therefore no additional information obtained. It is reasonably certain that a goodly number of families of this name scattered throughout the country are still unrevealed, and therefore cannot be named in these pages. In all, several hundred letters have been w'ritten and many responses obtained. In addition, court records, land books and family Bibles—yes, even cemeteries, with their almost forgotten tombstones—have been levied upon for information. With all these aids, much valuable data have been collected and arranged, and, while thoroughly conscious of incompleteness, it is deemed best to publish what has been obtained. When this investigation began it was deemed an easy task. Since beyond our immediate branch, few members of the Catlett names were known to us, but, as our researches extended, family after family, branch after branch, were revealed, until our correspondence extended to nearly every State in the Union. With the revelations already made, it is safe to say that the number of descendants of the original immigrant. Col. John Catlett, now living in this country reach far into thousands. The name is purely English, 11 Preface. derived from Catt’s lot—upon which the first of the name settled— passing through the various changes : Catts’ lot—Catelot—Catlett. Its history is given in the extracts from English records published elsewhere. It is impossible to give the names of all those who have aided us in this work, since their number is too large, but we wish to return here grateful thanks to every one who has contributed in any way towards the accomplishment of the work herein presented. The hope is entertained that the recital of the deeds and virtues of our ancestors ma}' inspire every living member with fresh determination to excel in every good work which goes to make “perfect men and women; THE IMMIGRANT. Col. John Catlett came in 1(550 to Itappahainiock connty, Vir¬ ginia (now Essex connty), from Sittingbonrne, Connty Kent, Eng¬ land, naming the parish in which he located for Sittingbonrne, his birthplace. His home place, “Green IliU ” was at the month of Golden Vale Creek (now Essex county). With him came his son, Nicholas Catlett, and half-brothers, Ealph and Edward Eowzie, followed later by his son, Thomas Catlett. (See patents.). Catherine and Sarah Eowzie, wife and sister of Ealph Eowzie, came later as headrights of Capt. Thomas Lucas. English Eecords. The family was seated in County Kent, England, as early as 1464, when John Catelot becpieathed “fourpence for the light stand¬ ing in the middle of Bearsted Church before the high cross.” The will of John Catlott, 1499, bequeathed twenty shillings to the reparation of the steeple of Bearsted Church. The Virginia Historical Magazine contains the following from the TIistorg of County Kent, England, printed by Harris in 1917, in three volumes: “Catts Place, with the manor belonging thereto, called Catletts, otherwise Salmon, is situated in Brenchley parish, about a mile northward from Brenchley Town, but within the Hundred of Twy- ford, being held of the manor of Yalding. The mansion was anciently the residence of Hugh de Catte, from whom it acquired its name. His descendants continued to possess it until the Eeign of Henry VI (1442). (Vol. Ill, 223.) “Sittingbonrne lies about the middle of the north side of Kent, in the road between Eochester and Canterbury, and about a mile southward from IMilton, in the Bailiwick and Hundred of Milton. It is the Deanery of Sittingbonrne and Diocese of Canterbury, a Vicarage valued in the King’s Books at £10 per annum. The church, a large and handsome building in good repair, is dedicated to St. Michael. In it are several ^lemorials of the name of Cate- let. (Vol. I, p. 28Jf.)” History of County Kent, Hasted^ Vol. II, 360, contains the following: “Catts Place, with the manor belonging to it, called Cutlet’s Salmon, is likewise situated in Brenchley parish, yitliin the Hun¬ dred of Twyford. The mansion, situated about a north from the village of Brenchley, was anciently the residence of Hugh de ' Catte, who implanted his name upon it. His. dysjcendants eou-, JA. 2 Descendants of Cot. John Catlett. tinned in possession nntil the Eeign of King Henry VI” (1442) (page 369). ‘■Lawrence Catlote, of the parish of Great Chart, by his will, proved 14()9, devised his messuage called The Place, in Chart street, on the death of Joane, his wife, to John, son of Nicholas Phylipp. * * About the same time, Eowland Clarke sold twenty-one acres to Williani Catlett, who. Trinity Term, Anno 4th Elizabeth (1562), levied a fine of his estate here. He died. Anno 5th Elizabeth, possessed of 100 acres of land and twenty acres of wood in this parish (Tong), of which Thomas, his son, levied a fine in Easter term. Anno 5th Elizabeth (1563). Eowland Clarke sold a moiety of this manor only.” (Hasted’s Kent, Vol. II, page GOJ,.) The Virginia Historical Magazine, Vol. Ill, p. 63, contains the following from Chancerg Proceedings, Charles I, C. C. 39, 20th April, 16J,S: “Humbly complaining, sheweth unto y’e honour yo’r orrators: George Catlett ye elder, of Blackwell, in County Middlesex, gent., Judefh Catlett, Thomas Catlett, William and Edward Catlett, sonnes of ye s’d Judeth and of Thomas Catlett, late of Sitting- bourne, in ye County of Kent, deceased, by .ye s’d Judeth Catlett, their mother and guardian, George Catlett ye younger, of Sand¬ wich, in ye County of Kent, marriner, and John Catlett, sonne of John Catlett ye younger, yo’r orrators, George Catlett ye elder, and Thomas Catlett, deceased, George Catlett ye younger, being all sonnes of John Catlett'ye elder, late of Sittingbourne, in ye County of Kent aforesaid, gentleman, deceased,— “Whereas, heretofore, yt. abt.

D., of Staunton, Va., has kindly furnished the following for insertion here: “In August, 1910, at the request of E. H. Catlett, Jr., I wrote to Leo Cullerton, genealogist and searcher, 92 Piccadilly, London, W., asking him to make a search for the armorial bearings of the Catletts of Sittingbourne, County Kent, England. The following shows the result of this investigation: “ ^92 Piccadilly, London, W., 28 September, 1910. “ ‘Dear Sir —Wy investigation shows a pedigree of Catlett, of Sittingbourne, County Kent, recorded in 1663, when the Heralds visited the county in order to ]nit on record the families of stand¬ ing and armorial hearings they were using (if with authority). 4 Descendants of Col. John Catlett. “ 'The Catlett family recorded their pedigree, but evidently they claimed no arms, for none are found in connection with this record. I have carried my researches over a good field, including a large number of Kentish references, and the results are interesting from a genealogical point of view, but disappointing from the heraldic point of view. Yours faithfully, “ ‘Leo Cullerton. “ ‘To Arniistead C. Gordon, Esq., Staunton, Virginia, U. S. A.^ ” The enclosures with the foregoing letter of Mr. Cullerton in¬ cluded a transcript of the Herald’s Visitation, which is copied on the following page; a transcript of Canterhurij Marriage Licenses, 1568-1750, containing Catletts; a transcript of Marriages at All Saints’ Maidstone (Kent), 1542-1754; of Catlett’s “Testanienta Cantiana”; “Intrantes of Canterhurij,” 1392-1592”; “Freemen of Canterhurij,” 1392-1800, containing Catlett names, together with Catlett extracts from the Registers of St. George’s, Canterhurij, 1538-1800. The Canterbury Marriage Licenses contain, among others, the following: “1626: Sept. 19. Lodwiek Eowzie, of Ashford, Doctor of Physic, bachelor, about 36, and Sarah Catlet, of St. Peter’s, Canter¬ bury, widow, about 24, relict of John Catlett, late of Sittingbourne, gentleman, deceased, at Bettersden.” The following seems to be the earliest recorded appearance of the name in Kent, as shown by these papers: Testamenta. “1464.

John Catlett and Edward Dudley, 1G54, collected the levies of Lancaster County, and in 1(558 he witnessed the olographic will of Kichard Lawson (Virginin Historical Magazine, V, 159), in which he bequeathed “another heifer” to Janies Gaines. (Ibid. 261^.) “John Catlett, gent.,” in lG6(i established the rights of his wife’s son, Francis Slaughter, to Indian lands. (Virginia Historical ^Magazine, XVII, 243.) Col. John Catlett was vestryman of Sittingbourne parish, colonel of militia and presiding justice of Eappahannock county, 1665, and with Edmund Scarborough and Eichard Lawrence in 1663 was commissioner to settle the boundary line between Virginia and Maryland. In 1668 Gov. Berkeley wrote to ]\Iajor General Eobert Smith commanding the militia in this district, concerning the depreda¬ tions of the Northern Indians, and recommended that they be de¬ stroyed and the women and children sold as slaves to defra}^ the expense. This letter, forwarded to the justices of Eappahannock county, received the following reply: “We intend, with the assistance of Almighty God, liy the strength of our Northern part, utterly to destroy and eradicate without further incroachment than the ‘spoyles of our enemies.’ ” (Signed) John Catlett. John Weire. Thomas Goodrich. Humphrey Booth. (William and Man/ Quar¬ terly, VIII, 165.) In 1668-9, Eev. Eras. Dougherty came to Sittingbourne parish from Massachusetts and New York, and became very obnoxious to Col. Catlett and Mr. Humphrey Booth. He refused to administer the Holy Sacrament to them, stating that “his conscience would not suffer him so to doe.” Charging him with non-conformity and scandalous living, they made complaint to Gov. Berkeley and Council, who autliorized the county court to investigate, and, if found grounded upon truth,” to put out the said Dougherty.” It resulted in said Dougherty’s saying he would “transport himself out of the Colony into some other clymate that may prove more favorable to his aged, infirm and decayed body,” etc. {Virginia Historical Magazine, V, 288.) Essex county records show that Col. John Catlett, of Eappahan¬ nock county, made a deed, 1663-4, stating that Mrs. Margaret •Note. —Old Rappahannock county wa.s extinKuishcd in 1692, when it was divided to form the counties of Essex and Richmond on either side of the Rappahannock river. A part of Essex became Spotsylvania county in 1720, and another part of Essex went to form Caroline county in 1727, in which was also a part of King and Queen and King William, Orange from Spotsylvania, 1734, and Culpepper from Orange 1748. 6 Descendants of Col. John Catlett. Upton had conveyed certain personal property to Capt. Francis Slaughter, deceased, for his son, Francis Slaughter, Jr., and that he (Catlett) had married Elizabeth, widow of Capt. Francis Slaughter. He was county justice, 1665, and county colonel in the Colonial forces, and active in campaigns against the Indians, by whom he was finally slain while defending the fort at Port Eoyal, 1770. The records of Eichmond county, Virginia, contain the marriage contract, April 20, 1672, between the Eev. Amory Butler, of Eap- pahannock county, and Mrs. Elizabeth Catlett, widow of Col. John Catlett and state that Col. John Catlett, in his will, directed his estate in England be devoted to the education of his children in that country. General Court Eecords, Eichmond County, pp. 25, 30: In 1670, Col. John Catlett was umpire, and Eobert Beverley and John Lewis arbitrators in a certain controversy involving boundaries of con¬ tiguous tracts of land. Economical History of Virginia, by Philip Bruce, states that at this period, 1650, John Catlett, and also John Clayton, of Glou¬ cester count)’, Virginia, were in the enjoyment of estates in Kent, England.

Mrs. Annie Catlett Bnllock, the danghter of Patrick Eobb and Elizabeth (Fitzhngb) Catlett, and granddaughter of John Gibson Catlett (the sixth John in direct descent), and who lives at Guinea, Caroline county, Virginia, has inherited the ‘"old Catlett Bible” with records of two generations, which she has furnished for this work. She writes: “I have heard there was another generation in¬ cluded, but one of the old great-grandmothers, who was left a widow, although young and pretty, being anxious to conceal her age, relent¬ lessly destroyed it—so the legend goes.” In another letter she MU'ites: “The “^Green Hill’ estate once belonged to my father, who inherited it from his father, John Gibson Catlett. I send you some very old papers to read. They are curious on account of their antiquity.” The oldest of these very ancient papers is the original deed given to Col. John Catlett, in 1666, by John Spearman and his wife, Susannah, to the “Green Hill” estate, which has descended through the male line directly to Mrs. Bullock’s father. It is so ancient and interesting that it is inserted in full below. The next is a survey of some land made for the second Col. John Catlett, 11th January, 1688, and gives as a reason for the survey that he “finds his patents of ye land going to decay,” 1,364 acres. The next is the original will of William Catlett, son of the first Col. John, made on the 11th day of April, 1677. This will is given elsewhere. Another is a copy of a deed of 3,640 acres of land made by Alex. Spotswood, Lieutenant-Governor, at Williamsburg, Va., to Eobert Carter, of Lancaster county, on the 22nd of January, 1718. These lands were in the fork of Eap])ahannock river and adjoined the lands of Col. Catlett; hence an official copy was furnished the latter. The next, an indenture made on the fourth day of January, MDCCXXX, between John Catlett, gent., of Caroline county, to John Catlett, Jr., of the same county, planter, conveying one moiety of tract of land purchased by him and Eichard Buckner, gent., of Augustine Smith, gent., is interesting, since both the signatures of “J^ Catlett” and Mary Catlett (Mary Grayson), his wife have attached a seal in red wax, an antelope’s head, erased. Xo. Arms of the Catlett family have been found, Imt this seal, coupled with the gift to his son John of his “silver seal,” in the will of the second Col. John Catlett, is significant of armorial bearings. The will of the third John Catlett, of Caroline county, made the 4th of June, 1730, and witnessed by Jonath. Gibson, George Todd and Eobert Lindsay, is also among these valuable papers. The following is the deed in full to a part of the original tract known as “Oreen Hill,” the remainder having been previously pur¬ chased of John Prosser: Descendants of Col. John Catlett. 11 166G.

Mar. (II) Lodoudek Eoivzee, aged 36, and bachelor, and doctor of physics), and Sarah, his wife, who furnished their OK//y son. Col. John Catlett, as the immigrant to Virginia in 1650. Col. John appears to have married before coming to Virginia, since there accompanied him Thomas and Nicholas, apparently his sons, and since no mention is made of his wife, it is presumed she died before he left England. He ivas accompanied by his half-brother, Ealph Eowzee, and together they patented lands, and also a half-brother, Edward Eowzee. Thomas and Nicholas Catlett, though coming over at the same time, did not patent lands until later, shmving them to be minors. Thomas Catlett was wit¬ ness in 1661, and Nicholas patents lands and records his mark for hogs in 1665. Col. John, Thomas and Nicholas are found associated closely in all the early records, and unless proven to the contrary it is reasonable to assume that both Thomas and Nicholas were sons by a deceased wife. Col. John Catlett came to Virginia in 1650 and settled upon the banks of the Eappahanuock river. He came from Sittingbourne parish (Kent county), England, and doubtless gave this name to his new church parish. As shown above, he ivas a man of great importance, if not of distinction. He was presiding justice, burgess, sheriff, colonel of militia, and of the vestry. He was one of three commissioners to settle the boundary line between Virginia and Maryland, with Edmund Scarborough and Eichard Lawrence, the last a distinguished Oxford graduate. He seems to have been an expert surveyor, and the records of Maryland show much work done by him in that State. Descendants of Col. John Catlett. 13 DESCENDANTS OF COL. JOHN CATLETT.

His M'ife and father-in-law, Francis Thornton, his executors. Jno. Eoy and Eobt. Smith, witnesses. This Lawrence was oldest son of the 2nd John Catlett, who is usually referred to as “the 2nd John.” Desendants of Col. Jno. Catlett the Second. John,- known as the 2nd John, was the only son of Col. John Catlett and his wife, Elizabeth Hnderwood, to leave male issue. It is thought that this John married twice and that Lawrence, and perhaps Elizabeth, were by his first wife, who, it is believed, was a daughter of Major Lawrence Smith, of Bacon’s Eebellion. There are deeds recorded in Spotsylvania co. to Jno. Catlett, Jr., and Eichd. Buckner, in 1722, from Augustine Smith, the son of Major Lawrence. Jno- certainly married Elizabeth Gaines, daughter of Dan’l Gaines, who is believed to have married Miss Eowzie, half-sister of Col. Jno. Catlett the imgt., since Capt. Dan’l Gaines, in his will (Essex co.), Aug. 18, 1G82, mentions wife “Margaret,” and “orphans of Col. Jno. Catlett to be paid out of the negroes who belong to his estate,” and calls Jno. Catlett “his kinsman,” and directs that “children of Col. Jno. Catlett to remain with my wife until they come of age or until she married.” Again, in 1671, l\frs. Elizabeth Catlett, widow of Col. Jno., gave power of attorney to l\fr. Dan’l Gaines, and also later made him “overseer of her will” and to have main charge of the children (1673). After a suit in IMay court, 1673, between Eev. Amory Butler (who married the widow of Col. John Catlett) and Capt. Thos. Hawkins, who married the sistr of Mrs. Jno. Catlett, Dan’l Gaines took charge of the Catlett children and Eev. Butler of the estate. (All from Essex Eecords.) Col. John- Catlett was burgess (1693-1702), and justice of the peace (1692), coroner (1700), president of court, sheriff (1705) 18 Descendants of Col.

Byrd, of Westover, one of the commissioners on the part of the Crown, as recorded by Rev.* Phil. Slaughter in ‘‘History of St. Mark’s Parish,” page 25, the following is his testimony: ‘‘Jno. Taliaferro, Gentle¬ man, aged forty-nine years, saith about the year 1707 he came to live where he now lives above ‘Snow Creek,’ nine miles below the falls, and there were then but three settlements above his house on the south side of the river.

Who was this Elizabeth, his wife, is not known, nor his descendants, but in King M illiam Records lands and negroes are assessed to Samuel Jones Catlett from 1798 to 1810, to Jonathan Catlett from 1802 to 1810, and to Ann Catlett from 1805 to 1819. It is highly probable that these are descendants of Jonathan and suggests that his wife was a Jones, jiossibly daughter of Samuel dones. 90 Dcsceiidanfs of Col. John Catlett. ]\liss LiUirii Lenoir N'orwood, of Lenoir, N. C., in a letter seeking information relative to the Catlett family, says that in the olden days there we^c several intermarriages between the “Jones,” of Orange co., Ya., and the Catletts. It is highly probable that the wife of Jonathan was Elizabeth Jones. It is also probable that Sam'I Jones Catlett or Jonathan Catlett may be ancestor of the following and other Catletts now found in and around Eichmond, since none are found to-day in King William county. The follow¬ ing are given, with others, in and around Eichmond, unclassified: Descendants of Wm. Samuel Catlett and First Wife, Elizabeth Beasley, of .Spotsylvania County. (1) Jno. L., b. 1862, d.

Hepburn has died, Feb. 7, 1916, at his home in Clarinda, Iowa, and the Journal, of that city, has a lengthy tribnte to his memory. The church, the bar and the Masons aided his fellow-citizens in paying merited tribute at his large funeral exercises. His career was intimately connected with public service in the State and United States. He was the author of many public acts, which bear his name, passed by Congress. Ex-President Eoosevelt has said the first session of the 59th Congress would ever be memorable l)ecause of the constructive legislation, and named five acts that gave it renown. Four of these acts came from the committees over which Col. Hepburn presided and three of these four hills he introduced. After the death of Dr. Hepburn his wife, Ann Fairfax Catlett, mar. (II) Geo.

There is a Hanson George Catlett given as captain and assistant quartermaster in IMexican War, 1847-8, by Hcitman, but Mrs. Cravens says this Hanson lived at home in Missouri until he went to California in tlie gold fever of 1849, where he died unmarried. (c) Susan Frances, b. 1819, d. 1899, never married, made her home with her niece, Mrs. Cravens, in Kansas City, iMo., who speaks of her as “truly a saintly, much-ad¬ mired woman.” (d) Henry, died in Virginia, whither he went late in life to take care of his aunts.

James’ will, mar. —■— Bailey and d. in Ohio s. p. (8) Thomas, mar., Jan. 26. 1808, by Eev. Win. Hill, Polly Payles, as recorded in Frederick County Pecords, is believed to be a son of Alex and Susannah Catlett. All the sons of the other available Catletts at this time have been fully accounted for. There is a John Catlett, who went early in life to Jessamine Co., Ky. (perhaps attracted thither by his uncle James, who had previously moved there), and is the ancestor of a large progeny in Kentucky and elsewhere, who may be a son of this couple. (See page -.) There may also be other descend¬ ants ; if, so, they moved away early in life from Frederick Co., Ya., since these records give no further mention of either Thomas or his possible children. (9) Elisha is given by the Hon. Brice W. Catlett as the father of his grandfather, Alexander Catlett, and Mrs. Fannie Catlett Cravens, of Kentucky, says that her grandfather had a brother by the name of Elisha that lived and died in Virginia ; there¬ fore Elisha and his descendants are placed here. A further corroboration is the fact that Mr. Bailey Catlett named his first son Elisha. Elisha mar.-, and had; Alexander, mar. Mrs. Williams, perhaps nee Bailey, with children, some of whom afterwards lived in Sedalia, Mo., and had issue: (1) Bailey, mar. Elizabeth Huff, of Hampshire Co., Ya.

Scruggs, of Dallas, Texas, has sought energetically to locate her ancestors, James Catlett and wife, Mary Yates. This couple left only two daughters, one of whom, Catherine, married Thos. Butler, and the other, Evelina, married Edward Mason, Jr. Her persistent efforts finally located them in Jessamine Co., Ky., where she obtained the following will, which is given as copied by the present clerk of the court. This will, dated Xov. 1, 1820, prob.

Clearwater, of Lander, Wyo., mar. Jno. Lemon and moved to Harper’s Ferry, Va. It may be that there were male descendants of this couple.

In the census of North Carolina for IfhO there occurs, in the Halifax District, Franklin county, the name of Dahorne Catlett, with one white male over 1(5 years of age, one white male under 16 and one white female. In the census of South Carolina for 1790 one finds in the Cheraw District the name of John Catlett with one white male over 16 years of age, one white male under 16, and four white females. Allusion has already been made to a John Catlett who patented lands in Burke county, Ga., in 1767, and in 1774 John and Wm. Catlett protesting agaijist action of the “Liberty Boys” in the same county. Again, a John Catlett matriculated in the University of Penn-sylvania in 1779 and graduated in 1782, and recently informa¬ tion has been sought by the authorities of that institution as to whether he was from A^irginia or Kentucky. Up to this date no member of the Catlett family is recorded as having gone to Ken¬ tucky, and yet there is no record of such a student from Virginia. Is it possible that he was the son of the John who was in Brarke county, Ga., in 1767? It is difficult to place all of the above without assuming more descendants of David and Elizabeth Catlett, or of Thomas Catlett, the minor son of the immigrant, yet careful examination of all the early records fails to throw any light on this subject. There is a large family in Georgia, Arkansas and Mississippi, that have records showing descent from a John Catlett, of Green¬ ville District, S. C. The legend goes that Wm. and John, sons of John, left orphans early in life, were adopted by two men, who subsequently “fell out,” and John’s “boss” took him to Kentucky, from whom probably descends Jasper L. Catlett, of Vincennes, Ind. (which see). After AVm. was grown he moved to Jackson county, Ga., where he married Olivia N-. About 1825 they moved to Walker county, Ga., and settled near Pidgeon Mt. and opened up a road across the mountain in the direction, of Lookout Mountain, now callled “Catlett’s Gap.” William died in 1856. They had nine children, viz: (1) Wm., d. 72 years old in Walker Co., Ga., leaving five sons and two daughters, whose descendants are living, mainly in Logan Co., Ark., viz (a) Berry, d., mar.-; (b) Calvin, d., mar.-; (e) AVashington, mar. - Morgan and hacl Lance, Reiiben, Martha and Mary; (d) Lance mar - Fuller; (e) Posey, mar.-Puller; (f) Frances, mar.

Catlett, of Vincennes, Ind., does not fully coincide with the facts given above, hut shows a similar origin of his branch and an entire ignorance of his grandfather. It is, therefore, uncertain whether his father came from this same branch. The occurrence of the unusual name of Jasper in both branches may be suggestive of sim¬ ilar origin: “Vincennes, Ind., Feb. 14, 1916. “Wm. C. Stubbs, New Orleans, La. “Dear Sir—My father’s people originally came from Virginia to Kentucky or Tennessee, and his father died, when he was an infant, in one of these States. His mother came North to this city with him and he was taken and raised by a man by the name of Timms, and practically spent his entire life near this city. After becoming of age he learned the blacksmith trade and followed it for 30 or 35 3mars, and then went to farming on a farm in Illinois, which we still own. “He was born in 1820, and was about 60 years old when he died. There are four of us children—Jasper L., Harlen, Emma and John. I was born in 1860 “As for grandparents on my father’s side, I have no trace of them, as I said before he was only a small child when his father died. “Hoping to hear from you, I am, Yours truly, “J. L. Catlett.” Dr. II. D. Catlett, of We.st Monroe, La., has given the following imperfect account of his branch, with the request that I write his mother for fuller information. Several letters addressed to his mother have failed to elicit a response, hence this incomplete ac¬ count is given.

John, of Jessamine Co%inty, Ky. —early in the history of Ken¬ tucky a John Catlett went from Virginia to Jessamine County, Ky. His descendants are numerous and scattered throughout Kentucky. l\Ir. John L. Catlett, of Coburg, Ky., who has recently lost his wife, leaving him six young children, says he is the son of James, who had, besides himself, four sons and five daughters; that James was the son of Charles and grandson of John, the immigrant, to Jes¬ samine county, Ky. He says that this John had also five sons and five daughters. Among those whose names he recalls, besides his grandfatlier Charles, are Washington, died in Kentucky; Eichard, went to Illinois, and Eliza and Betsie, of the daughters. He refers me to Geo. Catlett, of Washington county, Ky., as one of the descendants of John who could give fuller information, but lettters to him are still unanswered. The names of Charles and James suggest descent from Charles, of Frederick county, Ya., the son of James, who early patented lands in Jefferson county, Ky., which were sold after his death by his son Charles and other children. Mr. Wm. B. Catlett, of Inverness, Miss., writes as follows: “I am sorry to say that I know nothing of my father’s people. He married my mother, Julia Bradley, in Franklin county, IMiss., about 1869. They oidy had two children—myself and a little girl, who lived only a few months. My mother died when I was about three years old, after which my father and I made our home with my mother’s relatives. My father died in 1882, when I was only eleven years old. I don’t remember ever hearing him speak of his early life, but I think now that there must have been some reason why he never talked of the past. He was very quiet and reserved. * * * I have pictures of him and specimens of his handwriting. ]\Iy father’s name was Eobert C. Catlett. I would be very glad if I could trace his ancestry back, and if you can give any information I would appreciate it very much. Please let me hear from you at once. Amurs truly, W. B.

It is extremely annoying to know that there are members of this family who could throw much light upon their branches, and thus aid in completing a record of this large family, who will not respond to repeated inquiries for information. Therefore the writer closes this pamphlet, which he has spent many years in preparing, with much regret at its incompleteness; but, in justice to so many of its members who have freely given full information, he cannot longer withhold it from publication. It is, therefore, presented to the Catlett Family with many thanks and many regrets. Descendants of Col. John Catlett. 97 UNDEEWOOD—Note. Capt. William^ Underwood, Sr., mar.

THE BAYTOP FAMILY PUBLISHED IN SERIAL POEM IN THE TIMES-DISPATCH (Richmond, Ya.) GENEALOGICAL COLUMN BEGINNING SUNDAY, MAY 10, 1910, AND NOW REPUBLISHED, WITH ADDITIONS, 1918 106 The Baytop Family. “Mrs. William Carter Stubbs has for many years actually spent her summers among Virginia records, and she has sent us such a scientific study of the Baytop family that we are sure we are giving a “bonne bouche” to all genealogists when we print it just as Mrs. Stubbs sent it to us. This genealogy contains so much data concern¬ ing the Booths, Taliaferros, Catletts, .Stubbses and many other families (besides the Baytops) that we are confident that a host of people ivill be glad to read it. “This genealogy opens up wide family connections in Virginia. Many of its descendants have been distinguished in the South, notably in the Scott and McGehee families. It also answers many queries lately made in the Times-Dispatch. It places for the first time Philip Taliaferro, who married Sarah Baytop, in his right place. There are various notes concerning the allied families, and, as the network of families unwinds, so much material becomes plain which heretofore has been inexplicable, and gleams of inforpiation dart from the mass of faithful research.” (Richmond, Va., Times-Dispatch.)

Thomas^ Ba 3 'top and his wife,-Pell, were living in County Kent, England, in 1638, when she was left a legacy in the will of her great-uncle, Sinallhope Bigges, of “Cranhrooke,” County Kent, England, who mentions “My cousin (nephew) Pell’s children, viz; John, Elizabeth, Pichard and Thomas Baytop’s wife.” John Bigges (brother of Smallhope Bigges), in his will, 1640, mentions “Eliz¬ abeth Pell living with me, and my Cousin Baytop’s wife, of ‘Ten- terden.’ ” (For these two Bigges’ wills see “Water’s Glenealogical Gleanings in England.”) XoTE.— Of these, John Pell became a “citizen and cooper of London,” and married Hannah Thorpe, “niece and heir-at-law of Otho Thorpe, merchant, of London,” and of that Thorpe family which came to York Co., Va., in 1701.

Issue of Philip Taliaferro and Sarah Baytop. Philip Taliaferro, of “Hockley,” King and Queen county, was a son of William Taliaferro, vestryman Stratton iMajor parish, 1762, who was the son of William Taliaferro, Sr., of the vestry of .Stratton Major parish. King and Queen county, 1735, and died 1760. This last'William was the eleventh and youngest child of Col. John Talia¬ ferro, the Banger (who was the son of the immigrant), and was also the brother of Col. Lawrence Taliaferro, sheriff of Essex, and not his son, and should have been so placed in the “John Stubbs, of Cappahosic,” pamphlet. Pliilip Taliaferro was of the vestry, 1775. He had l)een assigned a seat in the “Xew Stratton IMajor Church,” 1767. From his pro¬ pinquity to the Bootes and Crymes family, his given name, “Philip,” would suggest a descent from one of these families, with whom Philip was also a popular name. There seems also to have been a Shackelford relationship. He had, certainly, a l)rother. Bichard Taliaferro, who is called his “l)rotiier” at the estate sale of Dlrs. Sarah Baytop, 1771 (the mother-in-law). It is prol)able he was also brother to William Taliaferro, who married Elizabeth Holden, called at that date William, “the elder.” Bichard Taliaferro died 1790, land tax in Clouccstcr 1787, and his estate tax 1790. He was in the vestry of Petsworth ])arish. 1785, with dames Bavtop and George and Thomas Booth, and acknowledging the Protestant Epis¬ copal Church in Americ'a. Will, 1786; wife, Elizabeth; son.

William Keyser, petitioning for a pension, stated that he “served in Kevolntionary Army under Capt. Thomas Baytop, in Second Vir¬ ginia State Eeginient; that they marched to Hampton, and from there joined Gen. Washington at Valley Forge. In the summer, under the command of Col. Dabney, they overtook the British at Monmouth Church, and fought most of the day, v/hen the enemy then retreated to their ships. They were also in a skirmish near Fort Montgomery under Col. Gist, where they lost twenty-eight soldiers and two officers captured. They were in front of the battle at Stony Point Fort, under command of Gen. Anthony IVayne. Gen. Wayne was wounded and Col. Febiger took command, with Col. Fleury in command of the vanguard,” etc. (Virginia Maga¬ zine of History, I, 463.) There is also a receipt of $1,100 for a horse bought of Capt. Samuel Eddens at Morristown, N. J., April 6, 1780. Another, l\Iareh 9, 1778, signed 'Wm. Finney, IVilliamsburg, deputy quarter¬ master-general ,for goods, “part of a cargo arrived at Edenton, N.

Charles Harrison’s Eegiment of Artillery, one large red leather portmanteair, for the sum of £15 currency.” Signed Jacob Weiss, D. Q. M. From a census of Ware parish, 1783: Thomas Baytop, two white and twelve black. The following note to him from “the fighting parson,” Col. Chas. Mynn Thruston, of the Eevolution (who had married his cousin, ]\Iiss Buckner), is an amusing evidence of the nonchalance with which those ancient worthies dispensed their money: “22nd June, 1788.—Dear Sir: I called in great haste just to see you and to deliver to Miss Livingston a few things sent by her father (i. e., Cornelius Livingston). He desires you by me to collect the bonds of his in your hands, and when done to vest the amount in a negro girl, or girls, for his daughter, and to get a pair of stays for her, as he could get none here. “I am, with compliments to your lady, sir, your most obedient, humble servant, C. M. Theuston.” Addressed “To Capt. Thomas Baytop.” Mrs. Wm. C. Stubbs gave this communication to Prof. James T. Harrison, of the University of Virginia, a descendant of “the fight¬ ing parson,” as being .quite too valuable (if only for its signature) to escape his possession. It was relinquished with a smile at the calm manner in which the old gentleman mixed up purchase of “negro maids” and young ladies’ “stays.” He rented the Petsworth glebe lands, as did also his father. In the vestry book is this entry The Baijtop Family. 125 for 1788: “Received of Capt. Tlioiiias Baytop 505 pounds tobacco for rent of the fjlebe.” He was appointed inspector of tol)acco at Deacon's Xeck Ware¬ house in 1701 by Beverley Randolpli, Governor. Hening (VII, 470) savs tliat in 1702 the only remaining tohacco warehouses in Glou¬ cester were at Deacon’s Xeck and I’oropotank. Appointed inspector of tobacco at Deacon’s Xeck Warehouse 1704 by Henry Lee, gov¬ ernor. He was also justice for many years in Gloucester. Deacon’s Xeck is now called the “Warehouse.” A commission from Gov. Rage'(the original preserved by IXof. T. J. Stubbs) “to ’Phomas Baytop, Richard Baynham and iMatthew Anderson, issued June 1, 1804, under an act passed hy Congress IMay 21, 1804, to amend an act for appointing electors to choose a president and vice-president of the United States.” Col. Thomas® Baytop was master of Boteourt ((Masonic) Lodge Xo. 7, Gloucester, of which an ancient lodge book, beginning April 10, 1800, is preserved in the clerk’s office. It bears a very handsome seal, “England 1773-1857 Virginia,” and some wonderful flourishes in penmanship, of knights, ladies, dragons, etc. (The hospitalities of the courthouse ordinary were long dispensed by Capt. William Rogers, of the Revolution and War of 1812. Here old comrades mot and “fought their battles over again”—and John Kiningham was mine host of the Ark Ordinary at the same time. The “Ark” still stands in Gloucester.) He (Thomas Baytop) was justice in Glou¬ cester, 1808. He was executor of many estates and guardian to the children of many of his neighbors, and with the son, John Jones, was executor of the estate of Dr. Richard Jones, 1784. He was executor also of Christopher Pryor’s estate, 1804, and paid to Mann Page, deputy clerk, $4.89 for recording the appraisement (receipted bv Robert West, D. S.). From a poll of Petsworth district, 1810, for House of Delegates, the candidates were: Thomas Baytoj) (elected), John Lewis, John Wood and Wm. K. Perrin (elected) ; and among the voters, John Baytop and James Baytop, Sr., and James Baytop, Jr. (Did family ])a]>ers.) Capt. Thomas Baytop served in the Assembly, 1805, with (Matthew xinderson; 1800, with (Morgan Tomkies; 1808, with Rich¬ ard Jones; 1809, with Peter Wiatt, and 1811, with Wm. Perrin. He was of the vestry of Ware parish, 1797, when the church glebes were being sold lyv the State, after the Revolution. There is pre¬ served in the family papers a long letter to him upon this subject by the minister of Ware, Rev. Elkanah Talley, of whom Bishop (Meade said he was more profane than pious (as his letter indicates), and that he “died the death of a drunkard, and a Universalist be¬ sides.” This letter was as follows, and related to the preservation, to the church, of Ware Glebe, his method having excited the sus- 126 The Baijtop FamUij. picions of some of his vestry. He seems to have been unfortunate, and was expelled by Botetourt Lodge in 1802—“Brothers Matthew and Samuel Anderson, from motives of decency, requested they might be absent.” He married (1789) “the relict of John Ander¬ son, of Hanover county.” “Ware Glebe, Oct. 24, 1797. “Dear Sir—Last Wednesday, taking it altogether, may be ranged among my most disagreeable days. All the forenoon engaged in discovering and punishing rascality ( ?). And as soon as I reached the courthouse, discovered that violent threats had been thrown out against me for attempting to cheat the church and parish out of the glebe, and that the very devil was to be played with me if I did not accede to propositions which were to be made to me in vestry 1 This, I confess, rowzed my Irish, and I was determined then not to men¬ tion in vestry the steps I had taken to secure the glebe for the church (although I had intended on that day to lay the whole of the business before the board), and when it was introduced to be on my guard; to act the philosopher—and disappoint my adversary. “jSTow, let me ask you whether I was right or not in not agreeing to anything that was proposed ? If you recollect, Mr. Pryor asked if I would withdraw tlie entry, etc., if the conveyance from Curtis or Brown could be found? To which I answered in the negative, and for this reason: if no patent can be found (which I am now pretty certain is the case), the very instant my entry was with¬ drawn, another person might make an entry, divest me of my place of residence and wrest the glebe from the church. “The precarious situation of our church property is a subject which I have repeatedly heard argued by able hands for ten years back. We have, repeatedly, had good counsel on the siibject; con¬ sequently I have had a good opportunity to form an opinion relative to its situation, the limited uncertain powers of vestries and the great caution that ought to be used in making a conveyance. Hnder these circumstances, I am certain that some of the methods hinted in vestry the other day would have fixed the title of the glebe in my representatives, in case the Baptist bill passes. Admit for a moment I had agreed to make a conveyanace of the glebe to the parish so soon as the patent issues and had bound myself to do so. Mark the consequence. So soon as the Baptist bill passed into a law the reversion of this freehold would immediately revert to me or iny representatives. “Mr. Tomkies’ proposition comes the nearest a secure plan of anything that was hinted, but I think there is a small amendment in his plan necessary, which I will point out to 3 ^ou when we meet again. “As I had been at so much trouble in endeavoring to secure the church, and had sent forward the whole of my proceedings to a The Bay top Family. 127 person mIio would have the best counsel in order to secure the prop¬ erty to the church, which was, and is still, my intention; and as those threats were thrown out against me, I would not, on that day, have acceded to any proposition whatever after my original one was rejected, which, if you recollect, was ‘that the business should re¬ main in a state of suspense till we could have the best counsel.’ “I had sent forward for counsel in behalf of the church, which will be made to appear to the vestry. Now, suppose there had been a proper mode proposed? The question is whether you would on that day have agreed to it. Had 1 agreed to any proposition on that day, it would have been immediately said that, although I w'as about to chouse the parish out of their Glebe, the vestry had caught me at it, and that Mr. Hall’s threats and the vestry’s exertions had forced me to do right! “That the business might have remained in a state of suspense for many months is certain. True it is Capt. Peter B. Whiting informed the vestry, that Mr. Blair informed him, that a patent would issue in favor of me in six months unless a caveat was en¬ tered. But the plain state of the l)usiness is this: A patent will issue after the entry, survey, etc., have been returned to the land office and remained there six months, unless a caveat is entered and prosecuted; but not within six months after the survey is made. The papers are in the hands of l\Ir. Duvall, and in order to have placed the business in a state of suspense till the board could have been fully satisfied, I would have put them in the hands of a member of the vestry. But the threats of one member, the apparent jealousy of some and the warmth of others, forbid my attempting to set Capt. Whiting fight and making a proposition. “The situation of this Glebe (if unpatented, required a survey, which I mentioned to three memliers of the vestry, towit: Capt. Whiting, l\Ir. Baynham and yourself, and should have mentioned it to ]\[r. Pryor, as 1 went to his house more than once for that pur- jwse, but he happened to be from home. With respect to the land law. I know a number of the upland farmers understand it better than the lowland lawyers, and perhaps your land is in a ticklish situation. 1 may he counted a fool for throwing out this idea, hut certain I am that Cary’s and Anderson’s rei)resentatives had as good a title to our land in Cumberland as Ware parish has to Ware Glebe, and many other men in Gloucester have to the land they hold. Nevertheless, we have lost ours in Cumberland—for what? For want of a patent. With respect to the caveat the vestry are about to enter, etc. Can they sue or he sued? If the land was patented by Brown, if I mistake not, I am intimately acquainted with his legal heir. “I have mentioned my intentions to three members of the vestry. After fixing the business I was ]fieased, and mentioned it to a few of my acquaintances how completely 1 had speculated on and dis- 128 The Baijtop Family. appointed the dissenters. How niy intentions have been so mncli niisrepresented 1 cannot say.

A^our readers would be generally gratified by the publication of this old relic, which has been copied from an Alexanchia Herald, published in the year 1812. He was a Eevolutionary officer of merit and distinction, was the son of Sarah Smith, a daughter of John Smith, and of Colonial fame, and a man .^ans peur, sans reproche. Capt. James Baytop (son of the above- named Thomas Baytop) served through the War of 1812. Wm. J. Baytop, his grandson, volunteered and served through the l\Iexican War, and was killed at the Battle of Seven Pines, gallantly leading The Barjtop Family. 139 his company into action in tlie war between the States. J. C. Baytop, another grandson, volunteered in our late war, served through it all faithfully as an officer of cavalry, and surrendered with iiis company at Appomatox C. H. Gen. Wm. Taliaferro and Gen. Alexander Taliaferro, whose record is too well known to men¬ tion here, have the same adventurous and warlike Smith blood in their veins: “Died. —On the 11th instant, at his seat, in the county of Glou¬ cester, Capt. Thomas Baytop, aged sixty-one years. “Capt. B. was an officer in the Eevolutioiiary Army, during a part of its .struggle for freedom. At the commencement of the glorious contest he voluntarily stepped forth among the first who tendered their services to their country. True to the cause he had espoused, he resolutely stood by lier in the hour of trial and danger, wielding in her defense the sword of liberty, in order to sever the Gordian knot which the hand of tyranny was about to rivet upon her. Xor was this the only way in which he proved serviceable. When the object for which he had contended was obtained, and free¬ dom illumined our iiappy land, he stopped not short and exclaimed, ‘Thus much have I done, the re.st I leave to others!’ Xo! But, like a genuine patriot, he endeavored to render himself as useful in the capacity of a citizen as he had been in that of a soldier. And in his love of order and obedience to the laws he sat a worthy example to his fellow citizens, which did not fail to attract their attention and finally secure to him their confidence, as a mark of which he was elected to a seat in the honorable ^"irginia Legislature, for a number of years, from the county in which he died. He also held the office of magistrate, which, though of little profit, is of much imjiortance to the people, and the duties of which he never failed to discharge with promptitude. Capt. B. was a man of sound prin¬ ciples—no political weathercock was he—during tlie boisterous reign of terror he remained firm and immovable, pointing to the then Spartan band, but now formidable phalanx of Eepulilicanism. In a moral point of view, few could stand a test with him, none sur¬ pass him. He was a kind father, a good neighboi’, a humane master; long will his death be mourned by a grateful family, sensible of the loss which nature's law has imposed upon them. Long, too, will an extensive acquaintance deplore tlie sad catastrophe, wliich lias de¬ prived society of a useful member and themselves of an amiable friend. “Peace, worthy man! peace to thy departed shade!

It is quite a remarkable fact that two of the sons of James® Baytop left no issue, and one had an only daugh¬ ter, and amongst his numerous descendants not'one now bears the name of Baytop. .Major James® Baytop, of the Revolution (b. 1754, d. 1822), fir.st lieutenant Seventb Virginia Regiment, IMarch 7, 1770; captain, Dec. 11, 1777, transferred to Fifth Virginia Regiment Sept. 14, 1778. Resigned Slay 12, 1779; major Seventh Infantry Jan. 10, 1799; honorably discharged June 15, 1800. (Heitman.) A census of Petsworth parish, 1783, gives him three white in family and eleven blacks. He was of the Petsworth parish vestry 1785. Col. John Page recommended to the Governor that James Baytop be commissioned lieutenant-cononel, he having been unanimously se¬ lected by a full court of field officers, since he had served with credit as cajifain in the Continental service, and is esteemed an excellent officer of Virginia cavalry. (State Papers, Vol. 1.) His home was Barren Point, \ork River. In 1787 he was as¬ sessed for 332 acres, and in 1789 for 1,050 acres, and same each succeeding year. He was meml)er House of Delegates, 17!)3, with John Hughes, and in 1795 with l\Iordecai Cooke, and the Virginia Calendar of State papers mentions him as balloting, 1794, for a suc¬ cessor to Judge Spencer Roane, of Court of Appeals. He was of the committee. 1790, with Philip Tabb, Armistead Smith, Samuel Cary, IMachen Boswell, James Booker and Richard Billups, to settle the account of Sir John Peyton (died 1790), sheriff, with Gloucester 144 The Baijtop Fainily. county, for revenues and taxes of 1482. Hening’s Statutes, Vol. VII, contains an interesting account of this settlement. John Dixon (d 1489) and John Whiting (d. 1498) were the siicceeding sheriffs. Sir John Peytoni had married (1), 1850, Frances, daughter of ^lordecai Cooke, by whom were born all his children. He married (II) Mary Dick, of Fredericksburg, widow of James Taliaferro, with one son, John. Peter Beverley Whiting had been security for certain deputies of Sir John Peyton. Both were now dead, and their widows, Mrs. Ann Mason Fox and ^Irs. Elizabeth Cooke Whiting, were also involved in the suit as execiitors. Major James Baytop’s taxes in Ware parish, 1496, were £2.13.8. He was executor of Mordecai Cooke, 1496. On June 9, 1492, he petitioned for “arms for Gloucester and Mathews counties, fearing an insurrection of the blacks, being alarmed at the late insurrection on the Eastern Shore.” (Virginia Calendar of State Papers.) He was a member of the Order of Cincinnatus at its meeting at Eagle Tavern, Eichmond, Va., Oct. 25, 1496 (with several other Gloucester gentlemen). He was justice in 1816; March, 1822, appraisement of Janies Baytop’s estate, Mordecai Cooke, executor; Eiehard Jones, “sheriff and committee of the estate.” (Gloucester records.) In a deposition (1829) William Armistead, of Franklin county, Ohio, said that in the year 1806 Col. James Baytop, of Hampton, employed him to build him a house on the farm called “Goodwood.” Elizabeth City county, etc. This deposition was in a chancery suit at Williamsburg between James Baytop, plaintiff, and John S. Westwood and others, defendant. He married three times: (I) Mary (b. 1448, d. 1496), daughter of John Cooke (b. 1418, d. 1495), ivho married (Oct. 9, 1444) Elizabeth Lee. (Abingdon Register.) In 1496 Giles Cooke, her brother, qualified as “trustee of children of Col. James Baytop by his late wife, Mary Cooke.” (She was sister also to Thomas Cooke, who married Eachel Murrey Yates, below.) James® Baytop married (II) Elizabeth, widow of Matthew Whiting, with sons, Matthew IVliiting and John B. Whiting. In a suit (1805), Daniel et al. vs. Whiting, as to a legacy of negroes, Mrs. Elizabeth Baytop, of York county, deposed; also James Baytop, of York county, and John B. Whiting, who men¬ tioned James Baytop as his “step-father.” John Baytop, “of Mid¬ dlesex,” also made depositions. In another deposition in York county, 1805, Major James Baytop said he was “late of Gloucester county.” He married (III) Dec. 31, 1804, Catherine King Yates (1). 1484), daughter of Henry Beverley Yates (who was son of Eev. Bartholomew Yates and his wife [1441], Elizabeth Stanard). Her sister, Eachel Murray Beverley Yates, had married (1494) Thomas Cooke (his second wife). Another sister, Elizabeth Stanard Yates, had married John (juarles, of King and Queen county. These were the “orphaiis” of Harry Beverley Yates, who married (I) Lucy The Baytop Family. 145 i\rurray, and (TI) (1783) Jane, daughter of Col. James Montague. Commissioners were appointed ,1800, l)y county court of Middlesex county to settle with Thomas Roane “his administration of the estate and guardianship of the or])lians of Harry Beverly Yates.” In the final settlement of Harry Beverley Yates’ estate James® Baytop assumed his part, “in place of his wife,” Catherine King Yates. James Baytop came into court and made affidavit (1820) that he was “sixty-six years old.” (Gloucester Records, Yol. 1, 114.) Issue: James, Thomas, John, Anne, IMartha and Sarah Elizabeth Baytop (b. 1700). Of these: (1) James® Baytop (b. 1776), “d. 1817, and unmarried,” as tes¬ tified by his uncle, Thomas Cooke). His executor was Mor- decai Cooke, in 1821. (Gloucester Records, 1, 411.) (2) Thomas® Baytop, d. y., 1805. (3) John® Bayto]). He was a merchant in IJrbanna, of the success¬ ful firm of “James Ross & Co.,” 1800. He made a deposition in York Co., 1805, as “John Baytop, of Middlesex Co.,” and Gloucester County Records (Yol. I) mention him as one of the appraisers (1821) of the estate of Francis Whiting Cooke (his cousin), who died 1820. (4) i\rartha,® mar. John Catlett, of “Endfield,” Gloucester Co., and had an only child, James Catlett," murdered when a young man l)y a favorite slave, to whom he had promised his freedom at his death.

There are now surviving female descendants only. The following is a letter from Ann Baytop (IMrs. Archer) “to IMrs. Francis Whiting Cooke” (nee Elizabeth Baytop) : “August (undated). ‘AIv Dear Aunt—It gives me great uneasiness to inform you that I cannot, as soon as 1 expected, return home. Believe me, nothing hut the distresses of my poor papa would have detained me so long from one for whom 1 feel all the tenderness of a child for its mother. 1 have long been convinced that you have ever supplied that place 1o me. and I would think myself unworthy the regard of any person if 1 ever forget the obligations you have conferred upon mo. It gives me the sincerest pleasure to hear that you are anxious to see me, and 1 am certain that nothing would afford me more happiness than to he with you now, hut I also wish to he with papa until his affairs are more settled than they are at present. I expect in October the ])lace he now resides at will he sold, and where he will then direct his steps 1 know not. Heaven, 1 trust, will look with pity upon his suffering and send him that peace he so much wants, and, 1 hope, is not undeserving of. 1 have been some days with Cousin 146 The Baijtop Family.

James Catlett was the only son of his mother, who was a widow. He was just returned from college, brilliant, handsome and rich, with life in its fullness spread out before him. His body-servant, a mulatto fellow, promising, too, and apparently faithful, was present when he read his will to a friend. To this body-servant he left the priceless boon of the human soul—freedom. Soon after this incident James Catlett one bright morning started with this man to a distant plantation. He was to return that even¬ ing, but he did not. The servant did return, and announced that his ma.^ter was detained. The master’s prolonged absence created suspicion, and when the negro was gravely recpiired to tell what he knew he lost courage and tied to the woods. The men of the whole countryside started in pursuit; the women stayed at home fillled with a despairing dread. Dogs were let loose and fell in with sj)irit for the ghastly chase. A favorite dog of Janies Catlett led to the discovery of his body near his home, where it was covered deep with earth, brushwood and leaves. Days passed before the murderer was trapped, desperate, weak and famished in the woods. A trial ensued and he was condemned to death. Old residents have told us of the hanging—how the negroes from all the planta¬ tions, and many \vhite citizens, too, fded in garrulous lines from the various plantations to the courthouse to watch a pitiful and tre¬ mendous tragedy. No doubt the condemned body-servant professed religion noisily, if he had not done so before, and his admiring colored friends saw him rise from the gallows to realms of untold freedom within the blue sky wJiich spread above his shame. 148 The Baytoj) Family.
