JOHN(3) OF BALTIMORE 1746-1781

John was the first or second son of Richard and Kezia Chenoweth. Born in Baltimore Co., MD, he lived his entire life there and died there in 1781, relatively young, shortly before his father. At a young age, John married in Baltimore County, Francis Haile. Her parents were George Haile and Elizabeth Chaffinch. George Haile lived near present day Towson on a large tract of land received from his father. He operated the first tavern in the vicinity of Towson. John and Frances founded a large family. There would be several ties in this family with the Haile (Hale) Family of Nicholas Haile, who was the father of George Haile. John and Francis had eight known children, all born in Baltimore Co., Maryland. Since John died shortly before his father, Richard, he is not mentioned in the division of Richard's land (Richard's will was dated December 04, 1781). John's son Richard, however, is specifically mentioned as Richard's grandson and John's son. As John was young, he apparently left no will.

After John died, his widow, Frances, continued to live in Baltimore Co., where she is found in the 1790 Census. Then just prior to the turn of the century, Frances with her youngest children went to join the Hailes at the Watauga Settlement located in Washington Co., TN. Here they would prosper and multiply. Sons, Richard and, for a while, Archibald, remained in Baltimore Co. Archibald would marry in Virginia, move to Sullivan Co., TN and later join the rest of the family in Washington Co., TN. What happened to Richard is unknown. An interesting sidelight is that John's descendants in Tennessee adopted unusual spellings of Chenoweth that have extended from these lines to present day including Chenowth and Chinouth. Francis appears to have live past the age of 91, as she appears to be living with her unmarried children, Parmenus and Fannie in the 1830 Census in Washington Co., TN.
