Subject: [PANORTHA-L] Titus Genealogy
Hi,
. . .
In researching my Titus line my 3X Aunt, Mary (Polly) Titus Clemmer is noted
to say her family was PA Dutch and English. Her Mother was the PA Dutch so
her Father TITUS ancestry must be the English ancestry. I checking I found
a James Titus that is the son of James Titus who is the son of Jacob Titus.
That is the connection I am researching. Does anyone out there have any
information on the Jacob Titus and his family listed on the 1790 census for
Plainfield Twp, North Hampton county, PA? If you want you can email me
direct at dtitus1(a)earthlink.net Any help at all will be appreciated. I am
at the brick wall again like I was for many years before I was able to
locate the correct James Titus in my Titus line.

. . .
J. J. ANTRIM, physician, Germantown, is a son of Jacob Antrim, a pioneer
minister of illustrious fame. He was born in Berks County, Penn., in the
year 1791. From childhood, he was a Bible student and adhered closely to
the principles of a Christian life. In early manhood, he connected
himself with the U. B. Church, and subsequently filled the pulpit,
teaching the doctrines of his denomination. In 1821, his nuptials were
solemnized with Miss Mary Zeller, who was a native of the same county and
State as her husband, and was born in the year 1800. The issue of this
marriage were six children of whom five are now living, viz., Jabez J.,
Cyrus, Titus, Jacob and Katura (now Mrs. Dr. Eckerd, of Trenton, Ohio).
In 1819, he located near Germantown, Montgomery Co., Ohio, purchased 120
acres of land in Butler County. Subsequently entered upon his duties as
an itinerant minister and circuit rider. In his circuit of 400 miles, he
would frequently become associated with the Rev. James B. Finley, a
pioneer Methodist minister. Rev. Antrim removed from his farm to
Germantown about 1828, and was chosen Presiding Elder of the Miami
Conference of the United Brethren denomination. His district consisted
of the counties of Montgomery, Preble, Darke, Mercer, Miami, Hamilton and
Warren. In 1850, death summoned his daughter Drucilla to her last abode,
and, in 1858, the same messenger called his wife to her eternal home.
Rev. Antrim survived her several years, finally taking a trip to his
native State to visit his friends; while there was taken very ill and
lived but a short time. The brittle thread of life was broken; his
labors on earth had ceased; having fought the good fight of faith and
finished his course, his spirit had entered into the joys of his Lord.
His body was conveyed to Germantown, where it was interred, and there
rests the body of a noble, just and esteemed citizen. His death occurred
in the year 1860, escaping the scenes of the late rebellion. Dr. J. J.
Antrim, whose name heads this sketch, was born near Germantown, Ohio,
October 26, 1823; having limited school privileges his early education
was the same; his summer months were devoted to framing, and the winter
to his books. However, early in life his mind was directed to human and
medical sciences, which he subsequently engaged in, being only eighteen
years of age; two years later, entered the medical college at Cincinnati,
Ohio; graduated in 1844, and entered upon the practice of his profession
in New Paris, Preble Co., Ohio. Soon after, thought a trip through the
Southern States would be a professional benefit; he prosecuted his
thought, treating cancers and tumors. In May, 1846, when the United
States was in strife with Mexico, he enlisted in the Second Ohio
Volunteer Infantry, commanded by Col. G. W. Morgan; was mustered on the
non-commissioned staff of the regiment tot he office of Hospital Steward.
His services continued in this capacity two months, when upon a
satisfactorily examination, he was promoted to Assistant Surgeon, and in
rank that of Lieutenant, discharging his duties on the battle-field as
well as in the hospital. He served until the close of the war,
participating in the battles of Buena Vista, the siege of Saralvo, Puebla
and Rio Frio Pass.
Soon after his return, the California gold fever was raging, and he,
with a company, traveled through by a private conveyance, completing the
trip in seven months, traveling through an inhospitable country sparsely
settled with an uncivilized race. His stay was two years, when the
unsettled and semi-civilized condition of the country caused him to
return. He came by the Isthmus of Panama, then known as the Ocean route,
landing at New Orleans, thence up the river home. Subsequently, he took
a trip to the metropolis of United States (New York City) and other
Eastern cities; returned to Germantown and embarked in the mercantile
pursuit. This demanded his attention two years, when he resumed the
practice of medicine, in which he is still engaged. His marriage was
celebrated January 20, 1853, with Miss Ellen, second daughter of Gabrael
and Sarah Oblinger; she was born Jan. 24, 1832. The issue of this union
were three children, viz., Ida S., Williard and Frank. Seventeen years
of their united life had elapsed when the dreaded disease, consumption,
took her from earthly cares. She was an exemplary member of the United
Brethren Church, having connected herself with that denomination at an
early age, remembering her Creator in the days of her youth. Her death
occurred December 8, 1870. With the cares of the Doctor's children and
the demands of his profession, he was married a second time, July 18,
1872, to Mrs. Kate Clemmer, widow of the late David Clemmer. She was
born in Adams County, Penn., in 1828, and in 1834, moved with her parents
to Montgomery County. At the age of seventeen, united herself with the
Methodist Episcopal Church. She was a thoroughly devoted Christian, as
was proven in her life and conduct, that religion was not merely a system
of ethics and doctrinal truths, but a living principal, hidden in the
soul as the leaven is in the meal. After the death of her first husband,
she returned to the home of her parents, and owing to the inconvenience
of the Methodist Episcopal Church, she united herself with the
Evangelical Lutheran Church. From the time of her last marriage to her
death, May 28, 1880, she was a resident of Germantown. She merited and
received the esteem and love of all who knew her. She was a faithful
wife, a good neighbor and constant friend, hospitable and every ready to
help the poor and needy. she was a sixter of D. E. McSherry, of Dayton,
Ohio, the patentee of the McSherry Grain Drill.

Firstly let me apologize if I have disobeyed protocol to other list owners....since I don't know who all of you are. I hope none of you will mind.
Rootsweb has allowed a new list to be created. The list is a combination of all the North Eastern counties of Tennessee. There is such a list in Southeast and it is very active and informative. By creating a list that combines the regions/counties it will allow researchers to have their queries/statements to be broadcast to many others who research the area. The fact that county lines & names changed fairly often after the formation of the state it will eliminate have to do multiple mailings to each county. It will also allow researchers to correspond with others who may have infinate knowledge of the area, it's people and their migrations. Northeast Tennessee was a "hot bed" of families moving southward and westward in the late 1700's to the mid 1800's. The mountainous region of Virginia, geographically, had a passage that was easier to cross so it was natural for settlers to move into the NE Tennessee area.
I urge all researchers who are working in this region to subscribe to this list....we can all benefit from it.
To subscribe to the list it is just as it is with all the others. NE-TN-L-request(a)rootsweb.com for the list mode. NE-TN-L-request-D(a)rootsweb.com for the digest mode. Type subscribe into the subject line.

Township, Medina County, OH, and at the same location in the 1850 census,
which included the names of their four children: Emily, Oliver Perry, Lucy,
