• Not all members of the CHENOWETH family in the so-called Australian line ended up Down Under. Between 1873-1874 my g-g-grandfather, Henry Chenoweth ( b: 21 Jul 1831 in Liskeard, Cornwall) immigrated to New York City. He and his parents, Mary Pengelly ( b: abt 1792) and Richard Chenoweth ( b: abt 1801/d: bef 1872) are listed in many of the online postings of the Australian line. According to the 1841 UK census, another Richard Chenoweth ( b: abt 1762/d: 21 Sep 1848) is living in Camelford with the family. He probably is the person who married Sarah Canning ( b: 1bt 1764/d: 14 Oct 1830) � their death dates come from the monument inscription index transcribed by the Cornwall Family History Society.
  
  
• I have not yet been able to document � any help out there? � the connection to Sarah Canning, or then upwards to Richard Chenoweth and his wife Honor Cornelius. Darryl Lloyd Chenoweth (Dec 2003 newsletter) identified them as the earliest known ancestors. (NOTE: some undocumented online postings bump it back another 3 generations to Zachariah, William and Ralph Chenoweth).
  
  
• Henry Chenoweth is the origin of my interest in genealogy. It started when I received a copy of a detailed 1954 census (compiled, I believe, by his grandson Archibald Graham) of his living descendants. This personal census contains names, birth and marriage dates, and addresses. It also includes people from Henry's family of origin-American descendents of his sister Jane Chenoweth ( b: abt 1827) m 20 Apr 1848 to Thomas Bunt ( b: 1824/d: 1881).
  
  
• In Camelford and Likeard, Henry established his trade as a stonemason and builder. On 5 Dec 1852 in Liskeard, he married his first wife Mary Ann Dony ( b: abt 1832/d: bef 1871) who gave him four children � Henry II ( b: abt 1857/d: bef 1871), Mary ( b: Dec 1859), Elizabeth Jane ( b: abt 1862) and Emily ( b: abt 1865) � all born in England. On 23 Jun 1872 in Liekeard, he married his second wife, Sarah Jane Roberts ( b: 1846-1851/d: 14 Feb 1887)
  
  
• In 1873-74, Henry, his three daughters, and his new wife, immigrated to America; he re-established his occupation as a mason and master builder in the Upper East Side of Manhattan. His second wife gave his 5 children; Henry, III ( b: 29 Jun 1874/d: 9 Jul 1886); Sarah Jane ( b: Sep 1877); Frances ( b: 3 Dec 1879/d: 27 Oct 1908); William ( b: 3 Aug 1877/d: 7 Sep 1886); and Thomas ( b: 23 Dec 1883).
  
  
• On 26 Jun 1889, Henry married his third wife, Annie Gaus ( b: 26 Jun 1889). She gave him 1 child: Charles ( b: Jan 1893). On 7 Jul 1897, Henry died.
  
  
• None of his male heirs had male children, so his CHENOWETH name died with them. But 6 of his children had descendents:
  • Mary abt 1880 married Frederick Scott ( b: Aug 1848). They had 6 children: Charles ( b: Sep 1882), Albert ( b: Oct 1885), Mabel ( b: 15 May 1892), Elsie ( b: 27 Feb 1895), David ( b: 17 Apr 1902), and Florence ( b: abt 1905).
    
    
  • Elizabeth Jane abt 1888 married a man named Roberts. They had 1 child: Fanny ( b: 22 Jan 1891).
    
    
  • Emily abt 1886 married a man name Graham. They had 3 children: James ( b: 8 Feb 1890), Emily ( b: 2 Aug 1891), and Archibald ( b: 7 Dec 1895).
    
    
  • Sarah Jane abt 1890 married Robert J. Fleury ( b: abt 1868). They had 1 child: Raymond ( b: 6 Aug 1904)
    
    
  • Frances, on 6 Jun 1900, married Joseph Alessi ( b: 26 Oct 1871/d: 6 Sep 1943). They had 2 children: Harry ( b: 24 Mar 1901) and Lucy ( b: 5 Oct 1902). Lucy is my grandmother.
    
    
  • Charles abt 1917 married a woman named Henrietta. They had 2 children: Helen ( b: 3 Jun 1918) and Doris ( b: 7 Jul 1922).
    
    

We want to thank Stephen for taking the time to relate to everyone his family's story. We also hope that someone out there can provide him with more information about his ancestors. � editor.

(The following is a narrative from Caroline Mitchell (Chenoweth) Egbert, my great grandfathers sister. It should be noted that the first part of this history has not been confirmed, especially with regards to a William Chenoweth being in America at the same time as John1, but provides some interesting food for thought with regards to the 1715 Edward's relationship to John1).

The Chenoweths trace their origin back to the ancient Brit-Saxons. There with their followers they kept up a successful resistance to the invader and at one time were among the most powerful of the Welsh nobility. The changes and changes of time, however, caused the lessening of lands and prestige, and with the ancient castle a ruin, three brothers of the family � John, William and Edward Chenoweth � determined to leave the home property to the last named of the three. While William came over to the new world and settled in Jamestown, VA, and his brother John joined Lord Baltimore's colony and settled in Maryland. The descendants of these are scattered all over the United States today. Edward remained in the old country and became our ancestor. The line running as follows:

Edward (1610), John (1635), William (1682), Edward (1715), John (1741) died July 28, 1779 and whose children were: Alice (24 Dec 1765 � 21 Dec 1808); Edward (referred to in next paragraph); John (20 Aug 1768 � 2 Sep 1769); Martha and Mary (13 Jul 1769); William (23 Apr 1771 � lost at sea about 1825); Elizabeth (1 Aug 1773 � 25 Dec 1792); John (3 Feb 1776 � 1852); and Patience (30 Jul 1779 � 17 Mar 1829).

Edward was born 4 Sep 1767 and died in New York City. In 1784 he married Phoebe Romage of Chatham County, Kent, England and they had eleven children: Alice (5 Apr 1790 �19 Dec 1872); Benjamin (12 May 1792 � 22 Apr 1797); Phoebe (17 Nov 1794 � 1858); John (1 Feb 1797 � 7 May 1802); Benjamin (29 Jan 1799 � 16 Mar 1799); Mary Ann (8 Feb 1800 � 17 Oct 1802); John (22 Sep 1802 � 1802); John (referred to in next paragraph); Eliza (18 Sep 1806 � 6 May 1882); Laurentia (18 Aug 1809 � 11 Jul 1877) and Edward (28 Jan 1812 � 29 Apr 1850 in Australia).

John was born 19 Nov 1803 and died 19 Sep 1861. On 2 May 1824 he was married in the parish church at Chalk County, Kent, England to Caroline Mitchell, by the Rev R.S. Jaynes. Caroline bore him thirteen children. Three of those whose names have not been preserved died in infancy. The other ten are: Caroline (Sep 1825 � 5 Mar 1902) and married James A. Weston on 8 Aug 1850 in New York City; Edward (1827 � 1836); John (21 Apr 1829) married (1) Mary Hall on 18 Sep 1850 in New York City and (2) Mary Janes on 30 Nov 1864 in New York City; William (23 Feb 1831 � 5 Apr 1895) married Sarah Ann Carr in 1849 in New York City; Elizabeth (22 Oct 1833 � 4 Sep 1857) married Thomas W. Stott on 4 Jul 1852 in New York City; Phoebe Ann (1837 � 1887) married Benjamin Russell in New York City; Alice (1838); Edward (21 May 1841) married Judith H. Robertson on 18 Oct 1860 in New York City; Ephraim (7 May 1844) married 3 times in Newark, NJ; Laurentia (1 Jan 1848) married (1) John Quinn and (2) H. F. Huss on 26 Nov 1890 in Ottawa, KS.

I have spent many hours trying to trace our connection with John1 but have failed to do so with any accuracy. The information we have of our branch is not sufficient. If John were born about 1682, he would be a contemporary of our distant ancestor William, but whether a brother or cousin or a more distant relative we do not know. I have given our genealogy back to Edward born about 1610, which came to me from records which my father and our Aunt Caroline had, but I have no proof of its accuracy. Beginning with John, born 1741, the record gives the name of all of his children with dates of their births and deaths, and this we have reason to believe is accurate. Which ancestor left the ancestral home in Wales and settled inChatham on the east coast of England we do not know, but since it is the custom in England for the oldest son to inherit the entire estate of his father, it is probable that a younger son left the home to seek his fortune in another part of England.

It must have been some years, perhaps generations, before the time of our great grandfather Edward, as the family was then well established in property and profession. This is shown by the fact that John, a brother of our grandfather Edward, possessed considerable property which later formed a legacy in which my father and his brothers and sisters participated. The story of this legacy may as well be told here � it has some interesting features:

John died in 1852, leaving a will in which he left his estate to his family which consisted of one son and six daughters; but with the provision that should these children die without heirs, the property would go to the heirs of his brothers and sisters. The son died without children and none of the daughters married. The last one died in 1896. Her housekeeper, who had lived with the family many years, tried to claim the property, but the will was found and Mrs Ramage and Edward Moxom were appointed executors and an effort started to locate the heirs. One of John's brothers by the name of William had sailed from England about 1825, bound for Australia. He was never heard from so it was supposed that he was lost at sea. To comply with the English law, the executors were obliged to advertise in papers in different parts of the world for the possible descendants of William. None were found so the heirs consisted of fourteen grandchildren of Edward, five living in England, five in the United States and four in Australia. The property consisted of a house in London, some stocks and bonds and other property. After several years of investigation and conducting the case through the English courts, the property was sold, all costs paid and $2200 sent to each of the heirs. This was a great surprise to my father as he supposed the lawyers would get most of the property. He gave to each of his children ten dollars with instructions to buy something to remember their great uncle by. During the time the case was pending, Uncle Ed, our father's brother who was then living in Ottawa, KS, decided that some one should go to England to represent the American heirs and see that their interests were fully protected and as none of his brothers thought this necessary, he went on his own responsibility. He had a pleasant trip, an interview with Mrs Ramage, a visit with Edward Moxom, a cousin who to a remarkable extent resembled himself, and a visit to the church where his father and mother were married. Being a great admirer of Dickens, he spent considerable time visiting the villages described in Dicken's books, and on his return gave lectures in the schools of Ottawa and vicinity on "Dickens and his Country." He spent most of his time in England at the home of Lizzie Dallison, a cousin on his mother's side. Cousin Lizzie, who never married, spent thirty years a s a teacher in the London schools and during her last years was a reader to the blind in a home for veteran's of the World War (WWI). A number of the cousins in America corresponded with her as I did. She was very fond of her relatives and eager to write to any of us. She begged us to come to London to visit her. When my husband and I made the trip in 1931, I knew that she had been dead for several years, but we went to her home at 42 Ridge Road, Stroud Green, to see if we could locate a niece, Mrs Pilgrim, and spent a pleasant evening visiting with her and her husband and daughter. Since her grandmother was a sister of Caroline Mitchell, Mrs. Pilgrim and I were second cousins.

The first accurate information we have of our ancestors is concerning our great grandfather, Edward. He lived at Chatham, a ship building town on the east coast of England. He was a master calker of ships and a skilled worker in wood. He married Phoebe Ramage and to them were born eleven children, five of whom died in infancy. Our grandfather was John, the eighth child and the third to given the name of John. It seemed that every generation must have its John, so if the child by that name died, the next son was given the name. As was the custom of the times, John worked with his father as an apprentice learning the trade of cabinet maker. His father, having the ambition for him to become a clergyman, sent him to Oxford to study for this profession. John, however, decided he preferred the trade of cabinet maker, and returned to Chatham to work with his father. He was married to Caroline Mitchell and a record of this marriage, is found at the Marriage Register of Chalk County of Kent. John Chenoweth and Caroline Mitchell were married on the second day of May in the year one thousand eight hundred and twenty four by R. S. Jaynes. It was witnessed by Ann Mitchell and Stephen Redsell.

Our father, John, born April 21, 1829 was the third child of this marriage. In 1832 Grandfather John was advised by his father to take his growing family to America where opportunities were greater. His wife, Caroline, who was very devoted to her mother and sisters was reluctant to leave but was persuaded it would be a wise move. They embarked in a small sailing vessel for New York City. Knowing no one in the new world, this was a great adventure. Father was too young to remember any of the details of this trip which lasted seventy-two days.

In New York City, Grandfather John obtained work making mahogany doors for fine houses. In 1835 he started in business for himself buying, repairing and selling furniture. Grandmother Caroline was never satisfied in her new home because she grieved continually for her relatives in England. In 1841 John said they would go back and would sail in two weeks. Caroline, however, now demurred and said they would not sail until the baby she was expecting was born, because if it were born at sea it might die without baptism. So the trip was postponed until the baby was born and baptised. This baby was Edward, known to us as Uncle Ed. The oldest son, also named Edward, had died in 1836. The family now consisting of father, mother, and six children returned to their old home in Brumpton, England.

After a few weeks the family moved to London and there experienced real hardships. Grandfather John obtained some work but the wages were very low. I have heard Father say that he carried a letter eight miles to get the penny the postage would be and his mother and sister, Caroline, made colored shirts by hand for a penny a piece and white shirts with the linen bosoms backstitched on for three pence. Father became very familiar with the London streets for he walked about looking for work. When we were children he often told us stories of these streets, the names of which sounded so attractive to us. Many years later when I walked on those very streets these stories came back to me with the familiar names.

The children begged to return to New York, which was more like home to them. Aunt Alice, Grandfather John's sister, who was in comfortable circumstances, furnished the money for the passage. And again, on December 27, 1843, the family embarked on the ship Switzerland, at St Catherine docks, London, on a voyage the remembrance of which was always a nightmare to father. For several weeks the vessel was so buffeted with storms that it was unable to clear the English Channel. An anchor was lost and the ship so damaged that the captain was obliged to go into the nearest harbor for necessary repairs. On their way again and out into the Atlantic Ocean, the captain was taken ill and the command of the ship was taken over by the first mate. He was not sufficiently experienced and the vessel got off the usual route and into the "Place of Calms" where they drifted for days and weeks. Food and water supplies ran low and all might have starved had not the cargo included some peas and beans destined for seed and some Belgian hares. These were used for food. The water became so scarce and stale that it is remarkable that an epidemic did not take all on board. My father was so seasick during the entire one hundred and five days the voyage lasted and never again wanted to board a sailing vessel.
