Rachel Smith

Notes:

Information from Robert Moore, Canada: m. 11 June 1832 ?? to John F. Shipman (differs from Wintermute book)



NJGM v.51, #1, Jan 1976, Knowlton Prebyterian Churchyard - "John W. Smith "father" b. 1803, d. (27 Sep) 1862, (aged 59.4.12); wife Catharine A., b. 1806, d. (8 Nov.) 1889, (aged 83.4.17); dau. Sarah M. 1833-1909; dau. Rachel M., 1839-1922.
There is a new stone for the parents with their old stones still standing; additional data from old stones"

Rachel married John F. Shipman on 11 Jun 1832. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

The Kinney family originated in Holland and first settled near Stroudsburg, Pa. We presently know nothing of them. John W. and Catherine Smith had one son, Isaac Snover Smith (1835-1919) and three daughters: Sarah; Catherine (Mrs. John Kist
- no issue); and Rachael. Sarah and Rachael did not marry. John W. was injured early in his career as a millwright and lived quietly in Kalarama thereafter. (Roscoe Smith notes) (I bet his middle name was Wintermute. LP)



Birth and christening dates from Stillwater Presbyterian Church Records in Genealogy Magazine of New Jersey, Vol. 42, No. 1, Whole No. 160. Copy sent to Louise SP by Mary Miller in La.

IGI has her as Caty Ann b. ca 1808

Notes:

Knowlton Prebyterian Churchyard - "Isaac S. Smith d. June 29, 1854, aged 75.11.15; relict Catharine, d. Dec. 5, 1856, aged 74.0.7



All sons were prosperous farmers and lived in the Township except Isaac F. who took over his father's mill property, also acres of land, later selling to Martin Painter and then locating in Kalamazoo, Michigan and buried there. The parents,
also other sons, are buried in Knowlton Church Yard except Joshua who is in the Quaker Cemetery nearby. Sally Ann married Simeon Cooke of Marksboro where she was buried after living past 88 years; she was small, weighed only 84 pounds at time
of her death. (Roscoe Smith notes)



"Copied from notes of James Edgar Smith" - "Isaac Smith, Sr., a millwright, after marriage to Rachel Wintermute, settled in Blairstown Township, N.J., buying a farm, also erecting a grist mill, the little settlement being named Smith's Mills,
later Painter's Mills, then Kalarama."

"Wintermute Family History" by J.B. Wintermute, 1900 - date of birth July 14, 1778.



"History of Sussex & Warren Counties" pub. 1881, compiled by James P. Snell, p. 640 - "Blairstown....The exact date of its settlement by civilized man will probably never be known, but there can be no doubt about its being among the earlier
settlements within the limits of Warren County. The original name of the place, so far as we have been able to learn, was "Smith's Mills." Many years before the Revolutionary war a man of that familar name-Smith-had a large grist mill and a
saw-mill on the grounds now belonging to Hon. John I. Blair." (Not this Isaac Smith) P. 653 - "The next grist-mill in this township was built by Isaac Smith in 1831-32, now owned by the heirs of Martin Painter, and know as 'Painter's Mills,"
and located south of Walnut Valley Post Office."

Isaac married Catharine Wintermute. Catharine (daughter of Johannes\John Windemuth and Anna Margaretha Couse) was born on 28 Nov 1782 in Old Stone House, Stillwater, New Jersey; died on 4 Dec 1856 in Blairstown, Warren, NJ; was buried in Knowlton Presbyterian Churchyard.

Notes:

Christened: 9 Apr 1783

Residence: Kalorama farm

Notes:

The Snover information lists Frederick as being born in April 1767 in Walnut Valley, Knowlton, Warren, NJ. The Snover information is probably the correct version.



"Copied from notes of James Edgar Smith" - "The Kinney family originated in Holland and on coming to America settled at or near Stroudsburg, Pa. Have little knowledge of their history."



"Penna. German Marriages" compiled by Donna R. Irish, Gen Pub. Co. 1982 p.40 - Children baptized at Six Mile Run on the Raritaens. Parents Pieter Kinne & Eytye (Ida) Williamse, ch. Lenae bp 8 Apr 1711 at Six Mile Run. There are several other
Kinnes listed. These must be Dutch Kinneys and I don't think are connected (lp)

Notes:

From The Wintermute Family History:

Frederick was listed January, 1783, as being a member of the Reformed Association od Hardwick. He served as constable for Hardwick Township, Sussex County, New Jersey, in 1776. He is on record for supplying services and supplies during the
American Revolution in 1780 and 1781. George Windemuth named Frederick Snover as one of "my trusty friends".



From "The Snover Family" compiled by Edward P. Stone Sr., Amundsen Pub.Co., 1976, and in the NSDAR Library (information copied and sent to me by James Kerr) - "Frederick Snover was born in America.... The place of his birth, as well as where he
received his education, has not yet been determined." "..was a member of the Reformed Association of Hardwick." "Mister Snover was a zealous patriot, and supplied services and supplies during the revolution." Birth and death dates from this
book. His 3rd m.was performed by Joshua Swayze, J. P.

Information from Robert Moore, Canada : place of birth - "likely Trappe, PA"

In the History of Sussex and Warren Counties by James P. Snell (pub 1881) Frederick and Jacob settled in Hardwick Township (Now Warren County ) as early as 1735 or 1740. This notation seems to be in error as Frederick was born in Penn in 1743
however the family may have been there as early as 1750 and most certainly by 1763 when Frederick was married. Just who Jacob was is unclear at this time but he was likely Frederick's first cousin, a son of John Heinich Snover The name
Schnauber was Anglicized to Snover in 1764. Frederick served in the Continental Army during the Revolution,receiving pay during portions of the period from August 1779 to 1787 (He has been recognized by the DAR) His uncle Georg Philip
Wintermute was a Loyalist and his first cousins Philip, John, Peter, Benjamin and Abraham Wintermutes were members of Loyalist regiment "The Butlers Rangers" and were regarded as heroes in the Niagara area of Ontario where they settled after
the Revolution. ***Frederick was a constable for Hardwick Township in 1776. Frederick was a member of Hardwick Lutheran Church at Stillwater.

Frederick's will was dated 23 June 1828 and is contained in Warren County Probate Records (G.S. #566,393 No. 1920)
