William Nelson Pittman

"William Nelson Pittman was born 24 May 1822 (according to Winnie Pittman’s Bible; 25 May according to his tombstone) in Alabama (according to 1850&1860 Census-North Carolina; 1870 Census-South Carolina). He was one of 10 known children born to Matthew and Mary Y. (Harkey) Pittman both originally of North Carolina.  His father fought in the Revolutionary War.

"At the outbrake of the 1860’s war the family was living in Choctaw County Mississippi. William enlisted into the Confederate Army on November 2, 1861 at Greensboro, Mississippi. At the organization of the Choctaw Rough and Readies, October 25, 1861, he was elected captain and served in what became Co D, 3 MS Inf. CSA. He fulfilled his tour of duty through the four years of conflict without much injury but came out worn, dirty and tired. It was told by one of William and Winnie’s sons that his mother ran the plantation during the war with the aid of the slaves and her children. As this son was reminiscing of his mother he said he could almost hear the noise the spinning wheel made as she spun fabric for their clothing late at night."

Announcements

To the Voters of Navarro County—I am a candidate for Justice of the Peace of Beat No. 1. I have served fifteen years as a Justice, and feel competent to discharge the duties of the same. W. N. Pittman

Corsicana Observer, May 6, 1874

Comments

Pittman says that his cabbage head alluded to in the Dresden locals was not bitten by the late frost but was bitten many years ago while in his youth & has taken the big head.

Wise men think they know but little and fools think they know it all.

Several letters by William can be found in the Corsicana, Texas, newspapers.  

View them on the above mentioned website.  I'm posting this one for the farmer in the family.

Corsicana Observer, June 3, 1874

Agriculture

Eds. Observer:

Are farmers selfish in Texas? Or do they know all? Seldom do I see an agricultural article communicated in your columns. I recollect well when I was about 25 years of age, I flattered myself that I was a scientific farmer, and I have lived 27 years since and I now see and know that I did not know the first rudiments of agricultural science. It is a deep and profound science that is continually progressing. There is a commendable spirit of enterprise growing up in this country. Many Granges have already been organized in this county, and I understand there will be an agricultural store opened in Corsicana this year. If farmer’s clubs were also organized for the discussion of questions of practical value, and for the interchanges of opinions founded on individual observation and experience-as I hold experience to be the best taught wisdom-many good ideas might be imparted in this way. One might give his experience on the proper distance to cut out cotton, how many stalks of corn should be left to the acre, &c.

If our farmers could be induced to abandon only universal prejudices of daddy’s custom of carrying the pumpkin in one end of the bag and a rock in the other, it would be much better for them. The prevailing custom should be onward. Cotton is called King, and it must be related in some way to a Kingdom, for it always keeps its subjects pressed down, as a cart loaded with many thieves. We have not been troubled a great deal with the King’s evil since the revolutionary war until recently with King cotton.

It is ruinous for our country to purchase all their supplies with cotton. We shall never be prosperous while we do it. A few more panics will cause our people to raise their own meat, horses and mules cheaper than we can raise cotton to buy them with; but as I remarked before, it takes time to get out of daddy’s old groove in which daddy has run so many years.

The cotton question reminds me of an old corn song I used to hear the negroes sing at corn shuckings: “Negro make de cotton and de white man get de money.” So the farmers toil and labor, exposed to the beating storms and burning sun, deprived of time even to worship his Creator, for the speculator to get the money; for he bets more of it than any man in proportion to the amount invested and labor done in raising it. The people often and emphatically declared that they will cease raising so much cotton. They remind me of the sinner’s return to his Savior, after hearing the devil’s dark dungeon depicted in all its benighted black forms. He resolves to abandon his evil ways and seek life. Just so with the cotton raiser. After all the evil is portrayed and laid before him, when planting time comes around he steps over and loses all sight of his former vows.

It is true the agricultural prospect in this section is quite gloomy. The farmers are the most independent people on earth, if they will only unite, and I think this work is rapidly progressing and will soon be completed, when they will not need a drummer to run around and hunt up business, or like the candidate when he meets you-“Howdy, howdy, howdy. How do you do? Tolable. How do you do? Tolable. How is all your folks? Tolable. How is yours? Tolable. How is your neighbors? Tolable. How is yours? Tolable. All going for me this time? Sorter tolable.” And after the election, no go.

Notwithstanding that farming is an honorable pursuit, a great many boys and young men desert the labor of the farm and turn their attention to other pursuits less useful and much more demoralizing.

Hogs cannot be raised on the range in this country, and corn is too costly a crop to feed them on entirely; therefore, we should endeavor to raise more grain. Rye and barley are excellent food for hogs. Until our farmers stop following the flowing tide to financial ruin, in planting nothing but cotton, times will get no better but still grow worse. If the people would raise only half the amount of cotton it would only require one-half the labor, and they would realize the same amount of money for it.

I will not intrude any further on your space. The Legislature has adjourned and the Legislators returned home. After a session of four months they passed a yearling and fish law, and received $800,00 to each one.

Respectfully, W. N. Pittman

Winnie (Pryor) Pittman was left a widow at the age of forty-nine years with six children under sixteen, the youngest age two years. She managed the estate of her husband and ran the farm while raising the rest of her children alone. She had moved to Ellis County to be close to a son by the 1880 census and the 1900 census she was in Hamilton County Texas where she was living with a son, Robert Lee Pittman. Robert Lee Pittman and his mother eventually moved to Estancia, New Mexico where they died and were buried at the Estancia Memorial Cemetery in Torrance County; Winnie died August 8, 1910.

Daniel Dulaney

of

Pendleton District, S.C.

Based on research from a Xerox copy given to Sue Lambert of an unpublished typescript

written by Mildred Dulaney of Mart, Texas, about 1985.

How we are related:

Daniel Dulaney (1750-1825)

Thomas Dulaney (1782-1829)

Gilbert Dulaney (1811-1862)

Elizabeth Buenvista Dulaney Brewer (1848-1935)

Holland Nathaniel Brewer (1871-1950)

Ina Beatrice Brewer Johnson (1900-1978)

Marion Allan Johnson (1923-1998)

Daniel Dulaney, whose parents are unknown*** (see note 3 below), was born about 1750, place unknown, and died about 1825 in Alabama, probably in Jefferson or St. Clair County. He married about 1775-1779, probably in South Carolina, Priscilla, said to be Priscilla White, born about 1755 in South Carolina according to the 1850 census of Benton County, Alabama, (849-839), where she is listed as age 95.  Priscilla probably died soon after this census, but no grave has been found for her or her husband Daniel. Her parents are variously identified, but unproven.

In both the 1840 and 1850 Census Priscilla is listed in the household of John Perry and his wife Rachel Dulaney Perry. Rachel Dulaney is often listed as Priscilla's daughter, but it is more likely that she is her granddaughter (speculated to be the daughter of Baker Dulaney by a first wife who died) who raised by Priscilla (even after Baker married Sebret Harrison).  If birth years are close to accurate, Priscilla would have been 58 at the time of Rachel's birth.  ***(see note 2 below)

This entry in the Pendleton County Court Minutes seems to link the Dulaney and White families:

Daniel Dulaney was a farmer in the area between the Tugaloo and Keowee Rivers which was claimed by both Georgia and South Carolina until the Beaufort Convention of 1787 gave title to the area to South Carolina. Some records on Daniel Dulaney are therefore found in both states.

Daniel served in the War for American Independence.  For those desiring to join the Daughters or Sons of the American Revolution, his Ancestor Number can be found on the DAR website:

Three books give reference to Daniel Dulaney’s service in the American Revolution:

Daniel Dulaney lived for many years in Pendleton District, South Carolina, in the area that later became Oconee County. Deeds for Pendleton District are found in the courthouse of Anderson County.

His name is first seen in a land grant from 1784 regarding 640 acres on Congaree Creek in the Orangeburg District of South Carolina.

http://www.archivesindex.sc.gov/onlinearchives/RecordDetail.aspx?RecordId=177294

Another entry is found in Pendleton District SC Deeds 1790-1806 by Bettie Willie, pg 91:

The first deed found was dated 15 August 1794, though he lived there before that date, being listed in the 1790 census of Pendleton District. Mesne Conveyance Book C-D on page 360 records the purchase by Daniel Delaney for £15 of 100 acres on a branch of Choestoe Creek on 15 August 1794 from William McCaleb.

The next page, 361, shows two purchases of land by Daniel Dulaney, the first on 10 October 1795 from Joshua Lee for £60 354 acres lying on a northwest branch of Choestoe Creek, waters of Tugaloo River, bounding SW by land laid out to William McCaleb.

The second deed on page 361 is dated 4 December 1795 between Jacob Holland, Junior, of Abbeville County and conveys for £62 200 acres lying on a small creek of Connoross water of Savannah River. All three of these deeds were recorded 18 December 1797.

A fourth purchase of land is recorded in Mesne Conveyance Book C-D on page 467 and conveys 200 acres of land situate on Conneross for $200.00 from Thomas Shanklin of Abbeville County to Daniel Dulaney, dated 4 February 1799 and recorded 19 February 1799. Hannah Shanklin gave up her dower rights.

The land purchased by Daniel Dulaney in these four deeds totals 854 acres, but deeds where he sold land total only 460 acres. In Deed Book E, page 169 (Anderson County, S.C.) Daniel Delaney sells for $150 100 acres to Jonathan Crittington on 18 September 1797 and recorded 13 February 1800. Daniel Dulaney signed by mark.

Deed Book F, page 76, shows the conveyance of 50 acres of the tract purchased from Thomas Shanklin to Joseph Smith for $150 the land lying upon Coneross on a small creek that goes by the name of Fullers Creek. This sale was dated 16 September 1799 and recorded 27 October 1800.

The final sale, Deed Book O, page 12, was apparently made just before Daniel Dulaney moved away, for it was dated 5 November and recorded 14 November 1817. This sale was to William Carson of land on Fullers Creek, water of Coneross, for 310 acres and was signed Daniel (his X mark) Dulany, Sen’r with William Dulany and Baker Dulany as witnesses. Priscilla Dulany, wife of Daniel, relinquished her rights, and also signed by mark.

(See also: Pendleton District, S.C. Deeds, 1790-1806, compiled by Betty Willie, Easley, South Carolina : Southern Historical Press, c1982)

Apparently Daniel Dulaney lived in Georgia as well as in South Carolina. Early Records of Georgia, Volume Two, Wilkes County, (abstracted and compiled by Grace Gillam Davidson, reprinted 1968 by the Rev. Silas Emmett Lucas, Jr., Vidalia, Georgia), gives a tax list for 1785. On page 24 in the List of Taxable Property of Inhabitants of Capt. Walker’s District is listed Daniel Delaney – 1 poll, 200 acres Wilkes Co., 287½ acres Franklin Co. Property in Georgia was rendered in the county of residence, regardless of where the property lay. However in 1785 Franklin County extended across the Tugaloo River into present day South Carolina.

Daniel Dulaney is found in the 1790, 1800, and 1810 census of Pendleton District. Sometime after signing the deed in 1817 he and his family moved to Alabama. It is thought that he is one of the males over 21 in the household of his son Baker in the 1820 census of St. Clair County, Alabama.

Children of Daniel Dulaney and Priscilla White

The children of Daniel Dulaney and Priscilla White were named by a granddaughter as William, Baker, John, Rachel who married a Perry, and Daniel. As far as the recollections and memory of this granddaughter, Mary Alice Dulaney Klaus, have been proven they have been accurate, but incomplete. For example, in one family she named three children, but census records show seven more children than she named. In naming the children of Daniel Dulaney and his wife Priscilla, the same thing seems to have happened, for census records indicate far more children than the five named.

It is doubtful if all these listed in the census are children of Daniel and Priscilla. By 1802, the estimated birth date of Daughter V, Priscilla was about 47 years of age and it would seem that her child-bearing years were over and her family complete. The younger children in the 1820 census were not the children of any of Daniel’s known children, but could have been the children of Daughter I or II. It is believed by descendants of Rachel and others that Rachel was actually the daughter of Baker Dulaney by a first wife who died.  Even after Baker married Sebret Harriston, Rachel remained with Priscilla, but Baker was always living close by.  (See note 2 below)

Below is Mildred Dulaney's guess work of who some of these unknown children might be:

Daughter I – (Possibly Disproved Conjecture?) *** (see note 1 below) Isabella b. 26 Feb 1785, m. Samuel C. Born 19 Dec 1905 and had several children, including Daniel Delaney Born, b. 26 August 1813. Isabella d. 15 Dec 1852 in Gwinnett Co., Georgia.

Daughter II – name unknown, m. ____ Rice, possibly son of Charles Rice of Pendleton District. William Rice, b. ca. 1833 SC is listed in the household of John Dulaney in 1850 in Itawamba, Mississippi.

Daughter III – Mary m. ____ Hickman. Mary Hickman, aged 60, b. SC in household of Alfred Dulaney in 1850 census of Itawamba Co., Mississippi. She was about the right age to be his aunt. One Hickman researcher has found a William Hickman, born 1792, wife’s name unknown.

Daughter IV – no clue

Daughter V – Elizabeth m. Allen Goodwin in Jefferson Co., Alabama 17 July 1826, by Anderson

Robertson, J.P., Baker Dulaney bondsman.

agreed to pay costs. There is a Jourdan Peters in 1830 Tuscaloosa Co., Alabama, census, age 20-30 with no wife. Whether Sebret had died and this was her husband is not known. Correspondence with Peters researchers indicates there were several men named Jordan Peters.

Female VII – Unidentified.

Joel? – b. 1804. There is a Joel Dulaney in the 1850 Yalobusha Co., Mississippi, census living with Daniel

Dulaney, b. about 1820, who is probably Daniel Calhoun Dulaney, b. 1816. Mrs. Joel Nelson Dulaney said Daniel Calhoun Dulaney had a brother or uncle for whom he named his son, Joel Nelson. So it is possible Joel was the son of Daniel and Priscilla Dulaney, or he may be the one called Joseph, son of William in the notes.

*** TRANSCRIBER'S NOTES:

1. Daughter I - My research has shown that the Isabella who married Samuel Born was the daughter of other parents and is not the Daughter I of Daniel & Priscilla Dulaney.

2. Rachel Dulaney - On my tree I have listed Rachel b. 1813 as the daughter of Baker Dulaney b. 1790 as this seems logical considering the reasoning of respected Dulaney researcher Melba Straigis and other descendants of Rachel and John Perry.

Daniel Dulaney and Baker Dulaney - Alabama

Mildred Dulaney was a dear friend of mine. We had corresponded for several years plus - even did some genealogical field trips together back in the 1960's , mainly searching for the parents of Daniel Dulaney of Pendleton. I do know that most researchers had figured that Rachel was a daughter of Daniel and Priscilla, but, it is a simple case of arithmetic. Priscilla was all of 58 years of age in 1813 when Rachel was born (way past her birthing years) We had been spending so much of our time hunting Daniel's parent's that I guess we all just accepted the names of children as given to us by that family's descendants. I have learned in my 40 plus years of researching that mistakes can be made there also. It was thought by many that Baker had never married before Sabret because of his widowed mother, but I believe that he had married once and had Rachel, lost his wife and raised his daughter with the help of his mother. Rachel was a teenager when her father married Sabret Harrison in 1827 and probably continued to live with Priscilla until she married John Perry. By 1850, Priscilla was living with Rachel and her family. next to Baker and E.C.'s families. Rachel had named her first son, "Baker". (after her father?) Remember that Baker was a good deal older than his wife, Sabret. I believe that my great, great grandmother, Priscilla Dulaney, born 1799, was the last child of Daniel and Priscilla who was about 44 years old at the time of that birth.

There is a male child living in the Perry household in 1840, but he would not be a son of John Perry and Rachel Dulaney, as he was born before their marriage. He could be a son from a previous marriage, son of another relative, or someone living with them for another reason.

Surnames: Dulaney, White, Truss, Lambert

It was thought by some in years past that the Daniel Dulaney, b 1750 in Md. and died in London 1825 was the husband of Priscilla White, but in truth, that Daniel was a son of the Hon. Daniel Dulaney of Md.. He was a British sympathizer, as was his father. He was sent to school in London. He never returned to America but once after that to visit his brother who was a friend of George Washington. They rode to the hounds with George on that visit (Diary of George Washington) Daniel then returned to London and stayed there. He never married. I do believe the Daniel Dulaney of Pendleton SC who married Priscilla White and raised a large family in SC was related to the Maryland branch. Possibly a son of his brother, Thomas Dulaney, b 1689, and wife Ann. But that remains to be proven.
