Generation Three |
Stone of James Jamison (#9) (1775-1853) in Cherrytree Cemetery, Cherrytree Township, Venango County, Pennsylvania; photo taken 1997 by Karen S. G. Rodgers.
Assuming the dates are correct, James Jamison would have been about 43 when he married. See also discussion under first child of James.
James was in the War of 1812 and stationed in Fort Meigs, Ohio72 (see under Francis Jamison, Jr., #5, for more details). The 1820 tax list, Unity Township, Westmoreland County, mentions James Jamison, age 50, as a farmer. Although his tombstone would have him age 45 in 1820, probably he was our James Jamison. James Jamison was listed in the 1828 tax list for Unity Township, born circa 1778.73
I have no information on Elizabeth Lloyd’s parents.74 As will be indicated, a first cousin of James Jamison, Francis Jamison, also married a Lloyd, Hannah Lloyd, who was a relative of General Anthony Wayne.75 Hannah was born 1789. One would suspect a relationship between Hannah and Elizabeth Lloyd—perhaps sisters.
Two early Lloyds of Westmoreland County are listed in Tomichek (1998). Westmoreland Republican and Farmers’ Chronicle, Greensburg Pennsylvania:Friday, October 8 1824:
Westmoreland Republican and Farmers’ Chronicle, Greensburg Pennsylvania:Married Thurs 23rd ult by Rev. Patterson, General Joseph Markle of Mill Grove to Miss Elizabeth Lloyd dau of Colonel Joseph Lloyd of South Huntingdon twp.
Friday, September 21 1827:
Died Fri. 12th inst at his residence in South Huntingdon twp., Mr. Horatio Lloyd, son of Colonel Joseph Lloyd of Rostraver twp., leaving wife and two children. .
Two other Lloyd records from Westmoreland County are the death76 and will77 of John Lloyd, Sr.; died 22 April 1825 in his 77th year. In his will, John mentions wife Rachel, daughters Ann, married to Reuben Leirs?, Sarah, married to Abe? Chambers, daughters Rachel and sons Joseph, Ephraim, and John of Mt. Pleasant, Westmoreland County, who was named executor. Land in Washington Township, Fayette County, was also mentioned. Hannah (Jamison) Fleming (#47) named one of her sons John Lloyd Fleming; hence the John Lloyd (Jr.) possibly could be Hannah’s father—although, based on the names of Elizabeth Lloyd Jamison’s children and the names of the children of her sister Hannah Lloyd Jamison, the father’s given name was possibly William.
Regarding the relationship between our Lloyds and General Anthony (Mad Anthony) Wayne, I received an 18 December 1997 email from Robert Wayne, (email address upon request), who reported an Elizabeth Lloyd marrying Jacob Wayne 15 November 1781 in the First Presbyterian Church of Philadelphia. Jacob Wayne was born 4 January 1760 and died 1857. Robert Wayne reports Jacob Wayne’s descent from General Anthony Wayne was as follows: Anthony Wayne to Jacob Wayne to William John Wayne (married Sarah Gillingham) to Jacob Wayne (married, first, Sarah Fisher, married, second, Elizabeth Lloyd). Jacob and Elizabeth Lloyd Wayne had children. Perhaps this Elizabeth Lloyd is related to our Lloyds, but as yet I have no proof. Since our Elizabeth Lloyd was a native of Chester County, Pennsylvania, the location would not rule out a connection between the two families.
An 1843 Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, deed78 lists James Jamison and wife Elizabeth to James Gallager, all of Unity Township, and pertains to land adjoining Robert Jamison and part of larger tract patented to Robert Jamison and willed to James Jamison. Indenture was first made 2 March 1835. James and wife sold land parceled to James by Robert Jamison for $1000. Probably James and Elizabeth and family came to Venango County between 1835 and 1843 or 1844, perhaps to live with their son William, who brought a farm in Venango County in about 1840.79According to Bates (1899), page 809, James came to Venango County 15 years before he died, which would have been about 1838. James and Elizabeth’s daughter, Sarah Elizabeth, was known to have married a Venango County Fleming and Sarah’s first child, born in February 1845, was undoubtedly born in Venango County.
By 1850, Elizabeth had died, and James and three unmarried daughters (Mary Ann, Hannah Rebecca and Martha) were living with James’s son William and his family in Cherrytree Township.80
In the same area at this time was the other son, Robert Bruce Jamison and his family.81 Robert’s dwelling number was # 631. Next door to Robert, in dwelling # 632,82 was an:
Abraham Jamison, 23 [born circa 1827], farmer, no real estate, born Pennsylvania.
Caroline E. Jamison, 22, born Pennsylvania.
Augustus Jamison, 1, born Pennsylvania.
I have not been able to associate Abraham with James and Elizabeth’s family, although his age would indicate he could have been James and Elizabeth’s son.
I could find no deeds recorded in Venango County either in or out of James’s name, and no estate is filed for him there. However, there are several deeds in James Jamison’s name when he was in Unity and Hempfield Townships in Westmoreland County. But for some deeds it is impossible to be sure the James Jamison is our James Jamison, born 1775 or James Jamison (#24) (son of John), born circa 1794. And there might have been other James Jamisons in Westmoreland County at the time our James Jamison was there.

From Tomichek (1988): The Greensburg Gazette, 13 August 1824, “Maria Jamison, daughter of William Jamison of Unity twp. died in her 8th yr.” She was probably Maria, daughter of William Gaff Jamison and probably Elizabeth (Workman) Jamison. However the 1850 census for Unity Township lists Maria Jamison, born circa 1828, as a daughter of William and Elizabeth. Possibly William and Elizabeth named another daughter Maria after the first Maria died in 1824, or the death announcement is incorrect. | |

15. ROBERT3 JAMISON, JR (Robert2, Francis1).
One land record lists his middle initial as “S,” but do not confuse with Robert S. (Smith) Jamison, born 1835, a son of Hugh Jamison. Robert, Jr., was born 31 January 1791 in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania; died 26 December 1886; buried in the Old Presbyterian Cemetery, Pleasant Unity, Pennsylvania; married JANE WORKMAN, born 8 December 1794; died 19 September 1881,93 buried in the Old Presbyterian Cemetery, Pleasant Unity, Pennsylvania. Her father was Samuel Workman, and her mother Margery Carruthers Workman. Jane was Elizabeth Workman’s sister, who married William Gaff Jamison.
Robert inherited his father’s farm. Robert, Jr., was on the 1828 tax list for Unity Township. Robert started as a teacher and then began his active career in farming. He was an “old line” Whig and later a Republican; he was involved in Unity Township school activities and was school director in the Township for several years. He was in the War of 1812 and, as a soldier, helped build Fort Meigs. He and family were members of the Pleasant Unity Presbyterian Church.94 In 1860, Robert and Jane were living with their family in Unity Township, where Robert was enumerated as a farmer. Next door was Joseph J. Jamison and family, a son of Robert Jamison.

Francis’s first cousin, our James Jamison, also married a Lloyd, Elizabeth Lloyd born 1791; and, as mentioned, one would suspect a relationship between Hannah and Elizabeth Lloyd—perhaps sisters, given one was born in 1789 and the other in 1791.
