10156 | The Frederick Post [Frederick, Maryland], 17 November 1962. Text taken from a lengthy article titled “The Carty House”. The house seems to have remained in the Berger family until 1892 – 127 years. Phillip Berger had died without a will ad the house became the property of his son Jacob. Jacob Berger, by a will dated June 16, 1847, left it to his four children. Through the death of his brother and sisters, intestate and without children, it became the property of Francis A. Berger of “Taylor County, West Virginia, but now of Frederick,” who deeded it to C. C. Carty, in 1892. According to members of the family, although C. C. Carty purchased the red brick house in 1892, it was not until July 1910 that the family moved into it. He had lived with his family over the furniture store next door, where J. Walker Carty first cousins of Clarence, now is the proprietor. C.C. Carty was first married to Joanna Fox. They had six children, Margaret, Mrs. J.R. Jones, William A., Arthur C., Charles C., Harry E., and Frank R. Carty all deceased. He afterward married Miss Nannie Keeger, whose parents lived in the house we know as “The Newman place,” where thy Philippine Shop is located on the first floor. Mr. Carty and his second wife had four daughters: Cora, Mrs. S. D. Hedges, deceased, Mrs. Eleanor Theodor Titze, living in New York; Ruth, Mrs. George B. Delaphaine and May, Mrs. Lavier Michael living in Frederick. | Carty, Clarence Claredon (I3408)

10164 | The Joseph Project http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~hedges/joseph/life.htm It has long been claimed that Joseph Hedges' wife Catharine was the daughter of John and Annika [Erickson] Stalcop. This claim appears to date back to a document entitled THE HEDGES ESTATE, a report by Hon. Thomas A. Logan (1884), p.43, which stated: "There is a tradition in the [Hedges] family which runs as follows: Catherine Stallcup dreamed that a young man called at her father's house for lodging and was informed that he could be provided for, but that they had no stabling for his horse, but at the stranger's suggestion his horse was turned into the cow pasture. In the morning when Catherine went to milk she found the horse in the cow pasture and on going to the house learned that the young man of whom she had dreamed was a guest in the house, and that her dream had actually transpired in the manner it had appeared to her in sleep. The young man proved to be Joseph Hedges the emigrant, and he and Catherine were subsequently married. "Unfortunately the tradition does not give the time and place of this very romantic meeting and wedding, but it has been handed down as an occurrence between my grandparents (correspondent unknown)." From this anonymous source, Samuel Gordon Smyth in his GENEALOGY OF THE DUKE-SHEPHERD-VAN METRE FAMILY (1909) added the parents as John and Magdalena Erickson Stalcop. Subsequent hedges and Stalcop genealogies rely upon Smyth to make the same claims. To this writer, there is no substance to this claim. John Stalcop lived at Christina and it was on his land (sold to the church) that Holy Trinity (Old Swedes) Church was built. He died in 1700. There is no apparent connection between his family and that of Joseph Hedges: 1. The will of John Stalcop (the only evidence of which is a 1735 copy in the records of Holy Trinity Church) mentions four children: Jonas, Israel, Christina and Mary. No Catharina is among them. [Stalcop genealogists surmount this problem by presuming that Christina was Catharina.] 2. The husbands, if any, of Christina and Maria have not been identified. 3. Both Jonas and Israel Stalcop married. Joseph Hedges did not appear as a baptismal sponsor for [any of] their children and they never appeared as a baptismal sponsor for Joseph's children. 4. It was customary at that time for a married couple to name their children after the couple's parents. Joseph and Catherine Hedges had nine known children: none were named John or Anbnika (Anna). 5. John Stalcop's widow married John Giöding; "Catherine Stallcup" had no "father" at the time she allegedly met Joseph Hedges at her "father's house." In contrast, we do find the name of Joseph Hedges periodically shown in the baptismal records of Holy Trinity Church at Christina. On 2 August 1713 Joseph Hedges was present to be a co-sponsor (with John and Brita Hendrickson) at the baptism of Samuel Hall's daughter Elizabeth. (HTR, 2:22) Samuel Hall's wife was a daughter of Charles Spinger. On 15 May 1715 Joseph Hedges returned to Holy Trinity for the baptism of his own son, Joshua. Baptism sponsors were the pastor Hesselius and his wife, Anders Cock (son of John Anderson Cock) and John Hendrickson's wife Brita. (HTR, 2:53) [After Joseph Hedges died, his] widow Catherine thereafter appears to have married Isaac Bloomfield, who in 1740 witnessed the transfer of "Hedges Delight" from Solomon to Charles Hedges [sons of Joseph of Monocacy]; witnessed the 1747 will of Jacob Julien (first husband of Joseph Hedges' daughter Catherine); and had died by 1751 when Thomas Douthitt swore for him at probate of this will. Joseph Hedges and Joseph Wood were "near of kin" at the death of Catherine Bloomfield in 1749 and Charles Hedges on settling her estate made payments to Thomas Doouthitt, John Bell, Joseph Wood and Stephen Julian. Among the debts due her estate were debts owed by William and Jonas Hedges. At the 19 Nov 1751 court, Joseph and Charles Hedges, farmers, owed Robert DeButts, executor of Isaac Bloomfield £12.19.8. (Information collected by John P. Dern) An addendum: Joseph's Wife [In his monograph, Dr. Craig rejects Catherine Stalcop as the wife of Joseph of Monocacy, but we are never told who Joseph's wife was, because no clear record has ever been found. For Joseph's marriage, the record simply refers to her as "Catharina"; in his will she is simply his "wife". Ten years after he wrote the monograph, however, Dr. Craig did come to an opinion about Catherine's identity, related here with his permission from "1998 Addendum to Hedges Report: Catharine, Wife of Joseph Hedges" (Joseph of Monocacy).] After over ten years of research into the identity of Catharine, wife of Joseph Hedges (#2), I am led to the conclusion that she was the daughter of Samuel and Dorcas Land and stepdaughter of George Hogg, who married Samuel Land's widow about 1688. Samuel Land, later sheriff of New Castle County, and his wife Dorcas Walliam (daughter of James and Mary Walliam) were living near London in 1675 when they received a patent for land in John Fenwick's proposed colony in what later became known as Salem County NJ. Dissatisfied with conditions there, they moved with Dorcas' father to New Castle by 1676. James Walliam died intestate in New Castle in 1693. (Craig Horle, "Lawmaking and Legislators in Pennsylvania", 1:727-728) His son-in-law Samuel Land died intestate in New Castle County by 17 March 1686/7 when his widow Dorcas was named administratrix of his estate. (New Castle wills, A:84) She then married George Hogg as his second wife. Dorcas died by 1716 when Hogg married a third time, to Ann Humphreys. (Horle, supra, 1:435-436) The will of Dorcas' mother, Mary Walliam, dated 22 October 1695, named three sons of Dorcas Hogg by her first husband, Samuel Land - Thomas, John and Henry Land - but not her daughters. It seems evident that Catharine, who became the wife of Joseph Hedges, was her daughter. Joseph and Catharine Hedges named their plantation Hedge Hogg and used the names of Samuel and Dorcas in naming their children. Dr. Peter S. Craig, F.A.S.G. [In May 1999 he added, by letter]: My conclusion that Joseph Hedges' wife was the daughter of Samuel Land and Dorcas Walliam was an insight gleaned from studying Craig Horle's "Lawmaking and Legislators of Pennsylvania," which brought out the connection between the Land family and the Hogg family. John Dern had previously theorized some connection between Joseph Hedges and George Hogg because of the name selected for his Frederick County VA (sic) property - Hedge Hogg. However, research into George Hogg ruled him out as a candidate for being the father of Catharine. My conclusion that George Hogg was Catharine's step-father (not her father) was reached in early 1998 and, of course, was unknown to John Dern before he died in 1995. Had he been alive in 1998, I feel sure that he would have agreed with my conclusion. Indeed, John Dern's notes established the Joseph's mother, Mary, lived next door to Samuel Land in New Castle. | Stalcop, Catherine (I5226)

10165 | The Joseph Project http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~hedges/joseph/life.htm [Repeated here is a series of excerpts from "The Colonial Descendants of William and Mary Hedges" by Dr. Peter Stebbins Craig, Washington D.C. , November 1988, quoted and posted on the HEDGES Biographies/Vital Statistics GenConnect board in 1999 by permission of the author] Charles Hedges (1673-1743). When indentured for 12 years to Thomas Jacobsson … in 1679, he was only five years old. It is likely that relatively soon thereafter, with the death of Thomas Jacobsson, he moved to another Swedish home in the western part of Christiana Hundred along the east side of Red Clay Creek. It was here that he and his brother Joseph Hedges established long-standing relationships with several inter-related Swedish families and it was probably here that they both found Swedish wives soon after 1700. The families were those of John Hedrickson, Charles Springer, John Anderson Cock (brother of Justus Anderson of New Castle) and Stephen Corneliusson. [Some of these and other names the author now introduces have appeared in various theories about who it was that Joseph of Monocacy married; but the author uses the information to show how those theories do not stand up to the facts.] On Midsummer's Day 1699, Charles Hedge was assigned a pew in the new Holy Trinity Church at Christina [Wilmington]. (Horace Burr, Records of Holy Trinity (old Swedes) Church, 63) He had volunteered 15-1/2 days of work on the church and, in addition, had been paid £1.15.0 for cutting stone for one month during its construction. (ID, 47, 48) On 17 August 1704, Charles Hedges purchased 96 acres of land in Mill Creek Hundred (on the west side of Red Clay Creek) from William Guest. (New Castle Deeds, L-4:341). He probably married soon thereafter. On 10 May 1711, there was surveyed for him another 170 acres above his land in William Penn's Manor on branches of the Elk River. The surviving baptism records of Holy Trinity Church start in 1713. They show that Charles Hedges or his wife twice journeyed to Christina (present Wilmington) to be a baptismal sponsor. On August 1723, Charles Hedges of Mill Creek Hundred, yeoman, acquired [17 more acres nearby]. Soon, however, his thoughts turned to moving further inland. On 25 November 1724, the Pennsylvania Board of Property included the following entry in its minutes (Pa.Arch.2d Ser, 19:724): "Edward Robertson [Robinson] requests the grant of 500 acres of Land on the Head of the further Branch of Elk River. Charles hedge desires about the like Quantity about a mile to the Northward of the Indian Town, between the Head of Elk river and Octoraro." A year later, on 29 October 1725, this plea was repeated (Id., 19:733): "Edward Robinson and Charles Hedge request the Grant of two parcells of Land on the Head of Elk River for 2 settlements for their sons." The move apparently took place, as is shown by [a] quotation dated 26 Jan. 1730/31 supplied by John Dern (source not identified). On 17 February 1730/31, Charles Hedges and his wife Elizabeth of Notingham township, Chester County, Pennsylvania, for £70 and one peppercorn if demanded, sold their three tracts in Mill Creek Hundred, New Castle county, to Thomas Gray of Mill Creek Hundred. (New Castle Deeds, L-4,341) Simon Hadley and Charles Sprnger delivered the deed to Gray. On 12 October 1743, Charles Hedges of Londonderry township, Chester County, Pa., yeoman, being "very sick and weak", signed his will by his mark, a "C". No wife is named in the will, suggesting that Elizabeth had died. (Chester Co., #865) [Children and grandchildren are named in the will, but none of that detail seems to have an immediate bearing on The Joseph Project.] | Hedges, Charles (I5203)

10167 | The Last Sad Rites The funeral of the late Thomas Kelley was held yesterday afternoon from the Park Baptist Church, conducted by the pastor, Rev. G.

Thomas Hardy Kelley was born on a farm eight miles northeast of Brookfield, October 5, 1868, and died in Tucson, Arizona, March 22, 1922, aged 53 years, 5 months and 17 days. He was married to Mary Thorne, of Linneus, July 13, 1898.

Studious and thoughtful and of broad experience, a self-made man, possessor of untiring effort he reached a high degree of recognition in civil, social, political and religious circles, a man who has left his impression and approval upon the minds of many men with whom he associated. His letters, which came so regularly have been a pleasure and a source of great comfort, especially to the aged mother He was a member of the Baptist Church in his home town, Durango, Colorado. He was a member of the House of Representatives from Laplata County, Colorado, for three successive terms.

10193 | The preliminary hearing of Frank Butts, charged with the killing of J.M. Hedges, was held in Las Animas before Justice T.D. Britton. Butts was held without bail until the term of the District Court. It is probable that the defense will try to secure a continuance. In murder cases a continuance is almost always granted over one term, and Butts’ condition is mush that he will probably never be tried for he will hardly live until November. The Colorado Statesman, Denver, Colorado. Saturday, 6 April 1907. * * * High Water Mark for Life Timers At Pen James Selfridge No.6932, convicted of murder in the first degree in the district court of Mineral county, was received at the penitentiary Tuesday night to begin a life sentence in the prison. Soon after his arrival the sheriff from Bent county came with Frank Butts, who was given No.6935, who is to serve a life term for murder. Both prisoners are 30 years old. Their arrival increased the colony of lifetimers to sixty-five, the highest number of lifers within the walls at any time during the history of the prison. The prison population is now 617, an increase of eighteen over the low water mark of two months ago. Canon City Record, Canon City, Colorado. 21 November 1907. | Hedges, John Milton (I379)
