42. WILLIAM4 LLOYD GAFF JAMISON (or Garrison122) (James3, Robert2, Francis1); born 6 March 1819 in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, date and place of burial not known; married MARY ANN CARROTHERS,123 born circa 1825,124 Pennsylvania, probably in Venango County; died 16 September 1897.125

William Jamison and family first appear in the 1850 census for Cherrytree Township, Venango County.126 There is a late 1860 land deed in which William and wife Mary Ann sell land in Jackson Township, Venango County, to Dr. Robert Crawford of Cooperstown [Jackson Township].127 In 1865, William purchased a farm of 100 acres in South Shenango Township, Crawford County. By 1899 the farm was operated by one of his sons.128 In 1880, William, Mary A. and daughter Anna were enumerated in South Shenango Township, Crawford County. In 1900, William was enumerated in South Shenango Township with daughter Anna Jamison. A 1906 obituary of Gilbert Fleming (#115 of “Flemings) would indicate William Jamison was living in the Jamestown area. Jamestown is in Greene Township, Mercer County, Pennsylvania, but the town site borders South Shenango Township of Crawford County on the east, west and north sides. Bates (1899), page 809, writes: “Mr. Jamison, although a staunch Republican, has no political ambitions. He is an elder in the United Presbyterian church.”

Children of Children of William and Mary A. (Carrothers) Jamison (all born Pennsylvania):129

+   79 i. James5 A. Jamison; born July 1844 or 27 July 1846; married Ella Cathcart.
  80 ii. John Lloyd Jamison; born February 1847; married Ada (Adda) [—?—], born November 1853. In 1880, John and Adda, but no children, were enumerated in South Shenango Township. In 1900,130 John and Ada were still living in South Shenango Township. The 1910 federal census for South Shenango Township reports that Ada had two children, one living, although the child was not living with John and Ada in 1910.131 In 1906, John also attended the funeral of Gilbert Fleming, at which time John L. Jamison was listed from Jamestown, Pennsylvania.
  81 iii. Anna Jamison; born circa 1851 in Pennsylvania. In 1880 and 1900, she was enumerated in South Shenango Township, Crawford County, with her father. In 1910, Anna was living with her brother John L. Jamison in South Shenango Township.132 She probably did not marry.
  82 iv. William Johnson Jamison133, born 23 April 1854 in Pennsylvania; married 30 December 1885 Eva C. Richer.134 In 1900 William, Eva and mother–in–law, Mary Richer, born May 1859, were living in South Shenango Township, Crawford County.135 William’s marriage license lists William as a farmer, and both William and Eva from South Shenango Township.

Extract of undated clipping from Fleming material:
“… death of William J. Jamison, cousin of Mrs. G. A. Shreve.”
Mrs. George A. Shreve would be Elizabeth Janette Jamison (#84), born 12 June 1850; married George A. Shreve; she was a daughter of Robert Brooks Jamison.
+   83 v. Sarah (Sadie) Jamison; born 26 June 1863; married (first) Thompson Marshall; married (second) Gibson W. Hurlburt.


43. ROBERT4 BROOKS JAMISON (James3, Robert2, Francis1); born 18 February 1821, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania; died 25 December 1893 in Canova, South Dakota; buried in Bridgewater, South Dakota; married 19 September 1849 SUSAN C. GEROW of Hydetown, Oil Creek Township, Crawford County, born 26 May 1833.

Robert and Susan were in Cherrytree Township in 1850.139 In 1851, Robert bought land in Cherrytree Township:140 Harm Jan Huidekoper, by atty., to Robert B. Jamison, of Venango County, part of tract #52 in Cherrytree Township, bounded by lands of Hamilton McClintock [#73 or #115 of “McClintocks], William Jamieson [sic] and Samuel Irwin, being the same land contracted by John Fleming,[141] Aug. 7 1840, whose interest in the same said property of the second part alleges has become vested in him. Consideration: $207. Dated July 11, 1851; recorded 1 August 1851. Witness: M. H. Bagley.

In 1859, Robert B. Jamison and Andrew Stewart142 purchased land in Cherrytree Township, from George Shafer of Cherrytree Township.143 Robert and family were still in Cherrytree Township in 1870.144 In 1885, Robert Jamison sold his land to James A. and Robert Shreve.145 A notation on this agreement stated “with this land contracted for John Fleming [#32 of “Flemings”] in 1851.” The deed indicates that Robert and family had moved out of Pennsylvania to South Dakota by 1885.

Venango County Deed Book 147, page 449:
Robert B. Jamison and Susan, his wife, of McCook County, in the territory of Dakota, to James A. and Robert Shreve, of Cherrytree Township … Consideration: $1,225. Dated April 18, 1885; recorded April 28, 1885. Witnesses: J. H. and P. Brown.
In 1880, the family was living in McCook, Dakota Territory (census page 419), where Robert was farming. In 1898, Susan Gerow Jamison was living in Canova, South Dakota, Robert having died in 1893.136,137 In 1900, Susan was head of household in Tirol Township, South Dakota, with two youngest sons George and Hugh, both listed as farmers.138 For informations on the Gerows, see endnote #137.

Children of Robert and Susan (Gerow) Jamison.146All children apparently were born in Cherrytree Township. Henry and Edwin Grant Jamison were listed by Jameson (1901), page 114, as being born at Miller Farm Station (located in Oil Creek Township, Venango County, Pennsylvania), and an IGI item for Pennsylvania Jamisons reports Susan Jamison, born 1868, at Miller Farm. All children born before 1871, with the exception of James Gilbert Jamison, were enumerated with their parents in Cherrytree Township in 1870:147

Colvin, but not Catherien were enumerated; in 1930; Robert and his brother George Jamison, but not Catherine were enumerated, although the 1920 and 1930 censuses report Robert married (instead of a widower). Robert B. was a farmer.

In 1900 (census page 1A), 1910 (page 2B), 1920 (page 4A), and 1930 (page 8A), the family lived in Sumner, Pierce County, Washington, where John was enumerated as a farmer in 1900, as salesman in 1910, as a laborer in a paper mill in 1920, and as farmer in 1930. In 1920 and 1930, John's brother William B. Jamison was living with the family. Living next to John, Lona and family in 1900 was Fred Duxbury, born October 1876 in Minnesota and his wife Edna [—?—], born June 1876 in Pennsylvania—Fred was probably a brother of Lona. Children of John and Lona known from the federal censuses:

94 xi. William Bloomfield Jamison; born 13 April 1871; married Jennie Hincley, born November 1871 in Canada. Possibly he was the William B. and Jennie Jamison, who in 1900, no children, were living in Pittsburgh, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, where William was listed as a motorman.150 In 1920 and 1930, William B. Jamison was living with his brother John W. Jamison and family in Sumner, Washington. William was listed as divorced and a carpenter in 1920 and as a building contractor in 1930.

44. SARAH4 ELIZABETH JAMISON (James3, Robert2, Francis1); born 4 April 1823152 Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania; died 12 March 1896153 in Jackson Township, Venango County; buried in Plum Cemetery; married (first) 4 April 1844 JOHN FLEMING, born 24 January 1818; died 28 May 1856; buried in Breedtown (Cherrytree Township, Venango County) Cemetery; married (second), 19 April 1866,154 SAMUEL H. SMALL, born 31 January 1810; died 27 January 1878 (67y 11m 27d); buried in Plum Cemetery, Jackson Township, Venango County. John Fleming was a son of Edward Fleming.

Sarah E. Jamison Fleming’s second husband was Samuel H. Small. The Cross Index of Bride and Groom, Venango County, lists Sarah E. marrying M. M. Small, but this is wrong. In 1880, Sarah E. Small was apparently enumerated twice: living with her son Robert B. Fleming and family in Titusville, Pennsylvania155 and with Madison Small, her step–son, in Jackson Township, Venango County.156 Samuel and Sarah Jamison Fleming Small had no children. Samuel H. Small’s will was written 20 January 1878 and recorded 27 February 1878.157 He left his personal property and sole control of his real estate to Sarah, except for providing for daughter Alice P. Small. The will also mentions son M. M. Small and daughter Margaret Malissa McAlery. These children were by Samuel’s first wife Melissa Collins Small.

From Venango County (Pennsylvania) Death Book:
Small, Sarah E., white, female, age 73, widow, born Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania—housekeeper, died 12 March 1896 in Jackson Twp, of nervous p____ of 5 months. Buried in Plum Cemetery, 14 March 1896.

The Plum Cemetery, Jackson Township, Venango County, is the burial place of many Smalls. It is located near Plum Corners (the crossroads of Route 427 and Wright Road), where the Freewill Baptist Church once stood. Land for the cemetery was donated by Samuel H. Small, second husband of Sarah (Jamison) Fleming. Entrance to the cemetery is off Township Route 605.

There are biographical sketches of Smalls in the early Venango County histories.158 Samuel H. Small and Samuel C. Small (the father of Mary Jane Small, born circa 1820, who married Hamilton Reynolds McClintock, see #115 of “McClintocks”) were related but they were not brothers. Samuel H. was a son of Captain Samuel Small, who was a “cousin” of Samuel C. Small.

Extracts of the biographical sketch of Samuel H. Small, appearing in Babcock (1919), page 524:
Samuel H. Small, eldest son of Captain Small, was born Jan. 30, 1810 in York county, and spent his life on the paternal homestead in Jackson township … He was one of the thriftiest and most successful men in his locality … It is said that in proportion to his means he was the most benevolent man in the community, and his kindness was not confined to any one kind of liberality. He and his wife were members of the Free Will Baptist Church and he practically built the Plum Church of that denomination, donating the land and continuing to be one of its strongest supporters throughout his life. The cemetery was also established on land owned by him and his brother, the incorporation being effected after they died … Mr. Small was the only abolitionist in his immediate neighborhood, and his home was a station on the “underground railroad,” many a black on his way to Canada being warmed and fed there; his old log house sheltered as many as twenty negroes at one time …

In Venango County Panorama. A Pictorial History of Venango County, Pennsylvania, page 26, there is a picture (taken in 1916) of the Small farm. The caption reads: “ The Small family came to the valley between Cooperstown and Bradleytown to settle in 1816 and the farm is still occupied by Walter Small, who returned to this county after retirement. This graph was taken in 1916 to mark the Centennial of the farm.” Samuel H. Small’s involvement in the underground railroad is also mentioned on page 26.

Children of John and Sarah (Jamison) Fleming (all born in Venango County, Pennsylvania):

  96 i. Robert5 B. Fleming; born 28 February 1845; died 23 June 1880 in Titusville, Oil Creek Township, Crawford County; buried in Woodlawn Cemetery, Titusville, Pennsylvania; married Rosa [—?—].
  97 ii. Sarah Jane Fleming; born 6 December 1846; died 7 September 1862; buried in Breedtown Cemetery, Cherrytree Township, Venango County, Pennsylvania.
  98 iii. James E. Fleming; born 31 January 1849; died 25 August 1862; buried in Breedtown Cemetery, Cherrytree Township, Venango County, Pennsylvania.
  99 iv. John L. Fleming; born 21 March 1851; died 12 September 1862; buried in Breedtown Cemetery, Cherrytree Township, Venango County, Pennsylvania.
  100 v. Mary Elizabeth Fleming; born 2 August 1853; died 15 August 1862; buried in Breedtown Cemetery.
  101 vi. Peniah Fleming; born 3 December 1855; died 20 August 1862; buried in Breedtown Cemetery.

The reason for five of the six children dying in August and September of 1962 remains a mystery to me and I know of no family history of this calamity mentioned by other living Jamisons and Flemings. One would suspect diphtheria. Robert B. Fleming (#96) was the only child who reached adulthood.

45. MARY4 ANN JAMISON (twin) (James3, Robert2, Francis1); born 22 February 1825,159 probably in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, died 13 April 1897;160 married after 1850, WILLIAM FLEMING. At present the two sources for Mary Ann Jamison marrying a William Fleming is Jameson (1901) and the “Heald Manuscript,” no date. I have listed this William Fleming as William Fleming, born circa 1821, son of Daniel and Nancy (Harding) Fleming.
 
Children of William and Mary Ann (Jamison) Fleming (all born in present-day Forest County, Pennsylvania):

  102 i. Andrew5 Fleming; born August 1855; married Ida E. Isherwood.
  103 ii. Nancy Fleming; born circa 1858.
  104 iii. Emily Fleming; born circa 1862.

46. MARGARET4 JANE JAMISON (James3, Robert2, Francis1); born 22 February 1825161 in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, died 14 March 1881; buried in Cherrytree Cemetery;162 married 6 November 1850 ANDREW A. STEWART, born 26 July 1825; died 29 March 1908; buried in Cherrytree Cemetery.163 Andrew was a son of Charles and Margaret Ferry Stewart.

In 1860164 and 1870, Andrew and Margaret Jane and family were enumerated in Cherrytree Township, Venango County. In 1870, Andrew A. Stewart and “M. Jane, his wife” sold land in Cherrytree Township to Jonathan Watson for $5000.165 After Margaret (Jamison) Stewart died, Andrew married Mrs. Betsy (Phelps) Moses of Rouseville, Cornplanter Township, Venango County, born 1836; died 1910; buried in Cherrytree Cemetery. Andrew and Betsy apparently did not have children. In 1900, Andrew and Betsy were living in Cherrytree Township, where Andrew was listed as a farmer; also in the household was Andrew and Margaret's children William and Margaret and Andrew's brother John Stewart, born June 1830 in Pennsylvania.166

From Babcock (1919), page 981/982:
Andrew A. Stewart was born July 26, 1825, on his father’s [Charles Stewart] farm in Cherrytree township, where his brother William [born 1 June 1850] now lives, and spent the eighty–three years of his life in that vicinity, dying on his own farm in the same township March 29, 1908. During his early manhood he was engaged to some extent in lumbering and drafting to Pittsburgh, in 1848 purchasing the farm in Cherrytree township, five miles south of Titusville, where his son William now lives, and where he was occupied in farming to the close of his life. He cleared about sixty acres from the woods, rid the soil of stones and other objectionable features, and continued the improvement of his property throughout his active years, laying the foundation for its systematic cultivation, as conducted by the present owner. In his earlier years he took an interest in an oil lease on the property and commenced to drive a well. But the tools got stuck when they were within fifty feet of the oil sand and his partner decided to abandon the drilling. Mr. Stewart agreed, but the decision was no doubt unwise, for the next well brought in, in the same neighborhood, was one of best producers of its day, making the owners rich. Some wells were afterward sunk on the farm, but they never proved profitable, Mr. Stewart’s chief interest being always in agriculture. It is worthy of note that his farm and the Tarr place are the only two farms in the locality now cultivated to any extent, though thirty years ago farming was a remunerative industry in that section … He was associated with the U. B. [United Brethren] Church.
Extract from Andrew’s 1908 obituary in the Venango Citizen’s Press (Franklin), 2 April 1908:
Stewart, Uncle Andy, died. Services at Presbyterian Church this afternoon. He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Betsy [his second wife] and children, James, Ellsworth, and Mrs. Lizzie Roberts. Sisters [were], Mrs. Mary Maguiore, Mrs. Jane McClintock, Mrs. Angeline Blood and Mrs. Fannie Bell. One brother, William.
Children of Andrew and Margaret (Jamison) Stewart:167 :

  105 i. James5 A. Stewart; born 10 October 1851; married Stella [—?—], born circa 1863 in Pennsylvania. In 1920 the family was living in Los Angeles, where James was enumerated as a superintendent of an "oil work." Known child was (1) Ann Stewart, born 1890 in Pennsylvania; she married [—?—] Richards. Ann was listed as divorced in 1920, when she and daughter Wilhelmina Richardson, born 1909 in California, were living with Ann's parents.168

From Babcock’s (1919) History of Venango County, page 982:
James A … commenced work at the oil fields when fourteen years old and has spent his life in the business, making his greatest success as a contracting driller. For ten or twelve years he was in partnership with his brother William E. Stewart, their operations being largely in Forest and McKean Counties, but though he had shares in many wells he was never particularly successful as a producer, finding his remunerative activities in contracting. He is now [1919] living retired at Los Angles, California.
  106 ii. Theodore H. Stewart; born 11 October 1859; died 1879; buried Cherrytree Cemetery.
+   107 iii. William Ellsworth Stewart; (called Ellsworth, at least within family circles) Stewart, born 12 August 1861; died 1954; married Mattie Limber.
  108 iv. Margaret Elizabeth Stewart; born 13 January 1868; married David Roberts of Franklin.169 Mrs. Lizzie Roberts was still alive in 1908, re her father’s obituary.
