Rusagonis and George Garraty

leave a comment »

By JohnWood1946@hotmail.com 

Why Bother Reading this Blog Post?: 

Posts about religious history are not popular. Neither was I attracted to the subject until I realized that it was a neglected topic that revealed a surprising amount about our ancestors. So, there may be some benefit in reading this. 

Why Not to Bother Reading this Blog Post!: 

These few pages chronicle an odd journey. The story starts out on the Oromocto Baptist history road until it reaches the river. It then exits at Rusagonis for a brief visit before wandering off in a different direction with George Garraty. 

So, it’s up to you and here it is: 

Oromocto River Baptists; Rusagonis; and George Garraty 

The present Baptist churches on the Oromocto River have their roots in the Newlight movement of pre-Loyalist days, when Henry Alline led the ‘Nova Scotia Great Awakening’ between 1776 and 1784. He visited Maugerville in 1779, and a Newlight church was established on the Saint John River. The patchwork of religious denominations became larger with the coming of the Loyalists, but the Newlights remained and grew, especially in rural areas. 

The Newlights were not really a religious denomination in that they had no central hierarchy or organization. Each congregation was separate and independent since they believed that “it may be profitable to call for advice, & Council from Sister Churches, which ought to be taken as far as it is warrantable by the word and Spirit of god, but their Judgment alone is not to be imposed on the major part of the church.” 

Another important feature of the Newlight congregations was their absolute reliance on rapturous heaven-sent personal experiences with Spirit of God; including a rapturous conversion which was evidence enough to justify membership in a congregation. Other observances such as creeds, catechisms and even covenants were rejected outright since no summary or side-text was acceptable in place of their only guide: the New Testament. Baptism was left to the individual since it was “non-essencial (and) ought not to be a bar of communion among true Christians.” 

I have been using the term ‘Newlight’, and the name ‘Allinite’ has also been applied as a general descriptor. For themselves, they used the name ‘Christian’ since this was the only name that they could justify based on the New Testament. 

These practices were outside the norm and the Newlights were considered to be incorrect in their religion. This was not only by the Church of England, as might have been expected, but also by Methodists and Baptists who were moving away from radical emotionalism. The Newlight congregations continued to multiply, however, which brought a sense of self-confidence and a desire to be accepted as a legitimate faith. 

In 1810, some Newlight churches became regular Baptist and closed communion to non-members in order to force compliance with the union. This created division and many people refused to join, including those on the Oromocto. 

A very great change came at a conference in Wakefield on October 13, 1832 when a new church was formed: the New Brunswick Christian Conference. In doing this, the Christian churches, or Newlights, had associated themselves with the Christian Connection of New England. This introduced an organization and an implied hierarchy that had not existed previously and was not accepted easily. Elder Samuel Hartt “could in no wise agree” with the decision, for example, but that battle was lost and he later changed his mind. 

The 1838 conference was preceded by a period of revival, and Christian churches were established in Blissville and Rusagonis in 1833, before the new church was established at the conference. 

There was a regular Baptist Church in Rusagonis in 1826, and Solomon Smith was a member. This church did not last, and Solomon Smith became one of the first deacons of the Rusagonis Christian Church and was later ordained. 

Thomas Smith was the first clerk of the Rusagonis Christian Church, and it was he who recorded its early history in the church book. He wrote that “the cause of religion was low” when George Garraty began preaching in Rusagonis in mid-1833. Garraty was a schoolmaster from Lincoln and also taught in Rusagonis. He began preaching before he was a member of the Christian Church and, by July 1, 1833, his preaching had developed into a revival. After several more weeks the people “consulted together and being the desire of the young Brethren and Sisters concluded by the strength of the Blessing of God to have a Christian Church organized.” This posed a problem, however, since George Garraty was not ordained. He would become Secretary of the Christian Conference and be ordained in November of 1833 only three months after joining the Church, but events were unfolding too rapidly for that. So they called upon Elder William Pennington to join them from “down the main river” to help them form a church. 

Garraty did not stay with the Rusagonis church since, in 1838, there was a meeting “in church with Elders Samuel Hartt, William Pennington, Abner Mersereau and Elder Hamilton from the United States… to take into consideration circumstances relating to George Garrety in consequence of his refusing to inact his brethren in causes at sundry times.” It was decided to summon Mr. Garraty to account for himself, but he did not respond positively. “We then read a letter … stating his reasons for not meeting with his brethren …. After we had considered the contents of the letter the church then spoke one by one when it was found that all present with the exception of one still wished to unite with their brethren in General Conference.” 

It sounds as though Garraty was unhappy with the formation of the New Brunswick Christian Conference, but this was not the whole story. He was accused of preaching false doctrine after he argued against the Conference’s support for a breakaway sect of the Christian Connection in New England. He, on the other hand, railed against the “peculiar revelations” claimed by church leaders and the radical enthusiasm which they promoted. He criticized the elders for being dishonest and dictatorial and for holding court where “there was always a little pope.” 

George Garraty was expelled from the Christian Church on October 5, 1838, whereupon he joined the Disciples of Christ, or simply the ‘Disciples’. Garraty remained an outsider. Joshua Barnes observed years later, that he was in Grand Manan “making divisions on every hand”. 

George Garraty was active with the Disciples for many years, and played a role in many congregations in Nova Scotia and in New Brunswick. 

A Final Note 

The Christian Church of the New Brunswick Christian Conference did not become known as the Free Christian Baptist Church until 1847. 

Anther Final Note 

Have you got different religious ancestors? It would be a great idea to write about it.

Epitaph Transcriptions from a Collection

Epitaph Transcriptions from a Collection

Cemeteries are not happy places, but once in a while you will spy a genealogist with a note pad and a seemingly inappropriate smile on his face. Do not be alarmed or put off, for the genealogist is collecting ancestral information which will hopefully serve to honour the ancestors while informing those of us who remain.

These transcriptions were collected by several people and are primarily relevant to family names from Sunbury County, New Brunswick; with the addition of others from York County. Forty nine cemeteries are represented and some of them are from far away. They are, however, all of relatives.

Central New Brunswick Gravestones from a Genealogy

These pictures of cemetery stones are from my sons’ family tree. However, I have cut out the main trunk and parts of the lower branches to exclude more recent generations. This leaves an unusual looking collection, but it can still be followed by looking to the numbers in bold red. These indicate the positions of the people in the tree.

Generation 4 

8 & 9: William Harrison Wood and Henrietta (Nettie) Sarah Bunker.

At the Wood Cemetery in French Lake, Sunbury County, New Brunswick. 

10: Addie P. Webb and Blake E Webb

With an Order of the Eastern Star marker beside the stone. At the Gladstone Cemetery in Fredericton Junction, Sunbury County, New Brunswick 

11: Abner Mersereau April 11, 1885 – October 2, 1912

At the Gladstone Cemetery in Fredericton Junction, Sunbury County, New Brunswick 

12 & 13: Frederick Roy Stewart and Laura Jane Porter

At the Taymouth Cemetery in York County, New Brunswick. 

14 & 15: Charles Frederick Seely, 1883-1955, and his wife Beatrice Georgina Smith, 1885-1990.

At the Greenwood Cemetery in Hartland, Carleton County, New Brunswick

Generation 5 

16 & 17: Fennettae [Elizabeth Smith], wife of Gain Wood, died February 11, 1897 aged 54 years; her Daughter Eva aged 5 years; Gain Wood, died April 17, 1907 aged 69 years

At the Wood Cemetery in French Lake, Sunbury County, New Brunswick. 

Bunker, John T. 1839 – 1921; Eliza, his wife 1838 – 1925; Spafford B. 1873 – 1897; Maggie 1869 – 1887; Alberta 1867 – 1903; Elsie E. Wood, 1886 – 1918.

18 & 19: John Thomas Bunker and Eliza Mersereau. Maggie was a daughter of John and Eliza, and Elsie Wood was a daughter of Maggie, widow of James Andrew Wood.

At the Rusagonis Station Cemetery in Rusagonis, Sunbury County, New Brunswick. 

20 & 21: Leonard Mersereau, April 22, 1842 – March 10, 1916. His wife Elizabeth [McQuestion], 1838 – 1924

1. An Indian Burial Ground; 2. Oromocto Coal Mining

leave a comment »

By JohnWood1946@hotmail.com

This blog post addresses two subjects:

1. Indian Burial Ground at Oromocto

Abraham Gesner conducted the first geological survey of New Brunswick and published his findings in 1842. The following paragraph is on pages 25 and 26 of his “Fourth Report on the Geological Survey of the Province of New Brunswick.”

“At the entrance of the Oromocto, the course, dark grey sandstones of the coal field are covered with the red soil and a fine diluvial sand. At the village, this deposit was the ancient burying-place of the Indians. In opening a new road, several skeletons, axes, knives, kettles, beads, wampum, etc. were exposed. Through the politeness of H.T. Partelow, Esquire, I have obtained a number of these interesting relics, which throw light upon the history and customs of the ancient inhabitants of the country. The bodies dug up were carefully wrapped in garments made of beaver-skins; that still exhibit much ingenuity, and superior workmanship. The head of each individual was placed in a copper kettle, and the whole body surrounded by a strong wrapping of birch bark. The mixture of French beads with those made of shells, some with axes, and the copper kettles, are evidences that the French had visited the country previous to the interment of these bodies.”

A blog can be whatever the blogger wants it to be, and mine was never intended as a platform for my random thoughts and feelings, valuable as they may be. However, I find Gesner’s paragraph thought provoking.

I remember when archaeological digs in South America became controversial because the indigenous people did not want their ancient ancestors to be disturbed. There have been similar disputes in New Brunswick and I have usually taken the opinion that much could be learned from the archaeology and that the passage of time should lessen feelings of kinship. However, here we have the contents of graves being traded as curiosities among friends. Furthermore, the graves were not merely post-contact. They were later than that, as judged from the survival of shells, beaver skins and birch bark.

I suppose that Abraham Gesner’s only transgressions were to be writing in the mid-19th century and to have shared the mores of the time. I hope that a greater sense of decency and respect for the deceased and for their Maliseet descendants would prevail if such a finding was made today. On the other hand, we are only the latest generation to think that our attitudes are somehow uniquely modern, and I wonder if someone will be writing a similar commentary about our standards, one or two hundred years from now.

2. Coal Mining on the Oromocto River

I wanted to review early prospecting and coal mining activities on the Oromocto River. However, the primary documents are now lost and the only account that I could find is at http://www.myhartt.com/supplements/MarshallNasonRemembrances.pdf. Days of Old by Katherine DeWitt and Norma Alexander, published in 1987 by the Sunbury West Historical Society Inc. is based on this same article, but is still a useful source in giving a few additional details.

I therefore recommend these sources to anyone who is interested in the subject.

Days of Old by Katherine DeWitt and Norma Alexander:

an Index by JohnWood1946@hotmail.com

Days of Old by Katherine DeWitt and Norma Alexander was published in 1987 by the Sunbury West Historical Society Inc. It is a history of Fredericton Junction in New Brunswick and is distinguished from other local histories by its comprehensiveness. It is useful to family historians and genealogists in that it gives attention to as many local family names as possible. This usefulness is hampered somewhat, however, by the lack of an index, and this blog-post presents such an index.

The Wood Cemetery at French Lake, New Brunswick

leave a comment »

By JohnWood1946@hotmail.com

The Wood Cemetery at French Lake, New Brunswick

The Wood cemetery in French Lake is on the old John Wood property, part of the ‘homestead’ that he accumulated between 1823 and 1831. John sold parts of the homestead in 1845 and in 1853, but retained most of it including the land where the cemetery is located now.

John Wood died in 1868 without a will. It took at least twelve years to settle his estate and to pay his debts and, during this period, the homestead was occupied in four parts by his sons Gain, William and George and son-in-law Gain Mersereau, Amy Wood’s husband. William Wood’s part of the homestead included the cemetery area.

By 1880, John’s debts had still not been completely settled and his third wife, Hannah, was forced to sell the homestead at public auction in Oromocto. I do not know if George Wood and Gain Mersereau moved off of the homestead during this period of non-ownership. Gain lived on land that he owned, very close to where he finally settled, and Hannah moved in with a Phillips family in Rusagonis.

In late 1886, the homestead was bought back by Hannah, George and Gain Wood. All three of these purchases were made on the same day. Gain Mersereau bought the fourth part of the homestead. The cemetery area where William had lived was bought by George Wood and he, like Gain and Hannah, financed his purchase with a mortgage. However, George defaulted on his mortgage, and this part of the homestead was auctioned off again, this time in Fredericton, in late 1897. Gain Wood paid $5.00 at the auction to buy the half acre cemetery.

The earliest burial that I know of at the cemetery was William Wood’s, in 1875, when the homestead was still in one piece. There are no stones to indicate that it was used again until 1888, during George’s ownership. The 1888 burial was of William’s daughter Edith who died of diphtheria. Gain’s daughter, Eva, also died of diphtheria and was buried there, maybe in the same year.

Between 1888 and Gain’s purchase of 1897, the cemetery was used for burials of Gain’s sister Jane (1889); brother Charles (1896); and wife Fennetta (1897).

It seems clear that the cemetery did not exist in 1868 when John Wood died. He is supposed to be buried in the French Lake Cemetery, though the grave is unmarked. It is therefore likely that the 1875 burial was the first one.

The French Lake Cemetery continued in use throughout the period covered by these notes.

There is a cemetery list at http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~nbsunbur/cemeteryrecords/woodside.htm. This list is not complete because the cemetery is still in use today. There is also one error on the list. William Wood is shown as being born in 1875 while that was actually the year of his death.

James Glenie in New Brunswick

leave a comment »

By JohnWood1946@hotmail.com

James Glenie in New Brunswick

Introduction:

James Glenie was the son of an army officer and was born in England. He studied divinity but soon discovered that his greatest talents lay in mathematics. He published several papers on mathematics over his lifetime and was made a Fellow of the Royal Society of Scotland for his accomplishments. He began a military career and was valued for his engineering abilities. He refused to accept the authority of his superiors, however, and was court martialed. By the time he was in his mid-thirties he resigned his position as an officer to avoid another confrontation with people more powerful than him.

Glenie came to New Brunswick shortly after the arrival of the Loyalists and tried to set up a cattle raising operation. This failed when he could not get the required grants of land from Thomas Carleton who had been an officer on his court martial. He then started a mast cutting operation, but became the loser in an industry consolidation.

Glenie had a caustic tongue and was given to outbursts of name-calling and insults against anyone who stood in his way. This explains the court martial and the resignation and, perhaps to a lesser extent, the failure of his two business ventures. The mostly old settlers of Sunbury County liked his ferocity, however, and he was elected to the New Brunswick Assembly where he unleashed a torrent of abuse on the Governor, and the powerful elites.

Glenie was more than just a discontent. He had talents in military strategy and a keen understanding of the role of the elected Assembly within the English system of colonial government. He was a champion of Assembly rights but, after several years, his fellows in the Assembly distanced themselves from his bombastic approach and he finally lost their support.

Glenie remains a very controversial figure today. Over the years, he has been called a traitor; a radical visionary; and a pioneer of parliamentary democracy in New Brunswick. On the other hand, no one today would call him disloyal, and neither would he now be called a radical. His accomplishments are also questioned, in that they might have been achieved even without him. Everyone agrees only that he cannot be ignored.

And so I will pose another characterization: that he was a tragically flawed hero in the mode of Greek theatre. He might have achieved more were it not for his approach. It can still be argued, however, that if he had lacked these flaws, then he might not be remembered today.

- – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – -

James Glenie:

James Glenie was born in Fife, Scotland in 1750. He began divinity studies at St. Andrews University in 1766, but soon showed greater talents in the study of mathematics, for which he won prizes in 1769. Upon graduation, he embarked upon a military career; was made a second lieutenant in late 1776; and was sent to serve in Quebec.

The first couple of years in Canada proceeded well enough but, by late 1778, there were disputes between the soldiers of his group and Glenie’s superior, Captain Thomas Aubrey. Some men complained of Aubrey, and Glenie complained that the men were not working well together. This developed into a dispute between Glenie and Aubrey directly, and Glenie was told by the Governor to obey his superiors without question. This did not stop the contest between Glenie and Aubrey. Indeed, Glenie circulated a petition against Aubrey and was arrested and ordered to court martial for signing “a false return.”1

The court martial was underway and Glenie was vigorously on the attack (as became his hallmark in life) when, in 1779, he submitted two mathematical papers to the Royal Society of Scotland and was elected a Fellow for his accomplishments. This made him ‘fire proof’, as they say, and the more serious charges against him were dropped. The court martial, which included Lieut. Col. Thomas Carleton, found him guilty only of having behaved in a manner unbecoming an Officer and a gentleman.

Glenie returned to England but, as it turned out, his career was not over. His engineering talents were valued, and he had been called “the most capable Officer I know in the Province.”2 The Governor, who had warned him against insubordination, and others, wrote letters of recommendation arguing that he was simply more of an engineer than he was a soldier and that some place had to be found for his extraordinary talents. The court martial was overturned and his rank and reputation were restored. His personality was unchanged by these events and, in 1785, he published an anonymous pamphlet arguing against an expensive military defense project which, as a result, had to be abandoned. Anonymous or not, his responsibility for the pamphlet was known and he had raised a new crop of powerful enemies.

Glenie’s New Brunswick career began when he was stationed on the Saint John River and, in 1785, made a proposal to his old nemesis and the new Governor, Thomas Carleton, for a cattle raising venture on the Oromocto River. This would require grants of land well in excess of what ordinary Loyalists were to receive and the proposal was refused. Glenie modified the proposal and resubmitted it whereupon it was refused again.

Glenie returned to England, resigned his commission as a lieutenant in the face of continued reaction to his ‘pamphlet’ and, in late 1787, arrived in New Brunswick again, this time with his wife Mary Ann Locke. His plan this time was to secure his finances by cutting masts for the British navy; and so he established mast ponds at French Lake on the Oromocto River and at two locations on the Saint John River. His requests for timber cutting licences ran counter to Thomas Carleton’s settlement plans for the Loyalists, but he (Glenie) nonetheless obtained one with the help of his friend John Wentworth, Surveyor General of the King’s Woods.

The masting business made Glenie an employer in Sunbury County and paved the way for his election to the Assembly. The business was cutthroat, and politically controversial, however. The woods were full, it seemed, of contractors, sub-contractors, aspiring independent businessmen and thieves anxious to grasp already-cut timber out of the hands of all of the others. Glenie had difficulty getting his masts to market without allowing his men to keep whatever portion they wanted, and much of what was cut was left either to them or to rot on the ground. It was also debatable whether the granting of large timber cutting licences was in the public interest when so many Loyalists needed land for settlement. Carleton and the elite favoured agriculture and opposed large timber reserves which, again, put Glenie in conflict with the establishment. Contracts for mast-cutting were consolidated by 1794 or 1795, and Glenie was left out of the industry.

In 1789, Glenie took to the hustings in a by-election and was elected to the Assembly representing Sunbury County. The house did not meet for another year, but Glenie busied himself by accusing the cream of the Loyalist elite of being villainous, ignorant, uncouth, stupid liars who were afraid that he would lead the Assembly in  further uncovering their incompetence. The Governor was termed ‘simple Tom’, which others also used to describe him. Glenie even suggested judicial appointments to replace some of the elite, while he was a mere new member of an Assembly session which had not yet met.

Many of Glenie’s causes in the Legislature reflected his Sunbury County electorate, such as to oppose a marriage law that was neglectful of dissenting Protestants and to propose another measure in its place. He also opposed public works to better accommodate the legislature and the courts, and opposed the establishment of Kings College. Elias Hardy also opposed building a university and favoured establishing grammar schools instead; but no one has claimed that Hardy and Glenie were allies either on this matter or in general.

The marriage act dispute was a prime example of Glenie standing forth in support of his Sunbury County constituents. The act which Glenie opposed gave the right to perform marriages first to the Church of England or, if there was no Parish, to Justices of the Peace. Few exceptions were allowed to this rule and the dissenting Protestants were not allowed any rights whatever. Glenie proposed a liberalization of the act, but every member of the Church of England voted against him in the Assembly.

Notably, he opposed and attacked Thomas Carleton and the Loyalist establishment in almost everything. It is said that he was vindictive following the court martial affair, the mast cutting failure and other matters that had brought him into conflict with these people; but one is inclined to look for other motives. Better angels are difficult to find, however, and we are left seeing Glenie as a combative warrior against anyone who had ever opposed him.

Nonetheless, much of Glenie’s opposition was based on his assessment of military requirements. He also opposed any public expense that had not been passed by the Assembly, and any military work that ought to be paid for by the mother country. He opposed the building of barracks in Fredericton as a waste of money, for example; and thought that other proposals were strategically incorrect. He wrote letters to England criticizing Thomas Carleton personally and his military proposals in particular.

Glenie returned to England in 1793 and missed two sessions of the Assembly of which he was still a member. He met with prominent people, accusing Thomas Carleton and his brother Guy (Lord Dorchester) of mismanagement and incompetence in defence strategy and other matters. His pleadings had little effect because of the Carletons’ elevated status versus Glenie’s relative lack of it. It is interesting, however, in showing that Glenie: the mathematician, the logger, the would-be cattle raiser, the military man, and the Sunbury County politician could also move comfortably through the halls of power in London.

Glenie returned to New Brunswick in early 1795 and found an Assembly already in conflict with the Governor’s Council. The Assembly and Glenie then wrote protests to the Council in support of Assembly rights within the English colonial system of government. Some defence expenditures were also opposed and it was during this session that the debate over King’s College took place.

Glenie agreed that the form of government in the colonies should be modeled after that in England, but that this was not being properly applied in the case of New Brunswick. The Council and the Supreme Court were nothing like the English House of Lords, for example. Councilors in New Brunswick served at the pleasure of the Governor, while removal of a councilor in England was much more difficult.

Glenie’s proposals for an updated relationship with England were presented in his bill “declaratory of what acts of Parliament are binding in this province.” This is the document for which he is remembered to this day, and proposed that all acts of Parliament passed prior to 1750 should apply in New Brunswick but only to the extent that they were appropriate to the colonial situation. Likewise, no Act of Parliament made or passed since 1750 should extend to New Brunswick unless such intent was included in the legislation.

Glenie’s bill was passed by the Assembly but created uproar and was immediately disallowed by Council without even reading it. One observer compared it with proposals leading to the American Revolution. Others at least agreed that it was a rebellion against the colonial system. James Hannay wrote in the early 1900s, on the other hand, that “Glenie was a reformer of the most advanced type, and was a full half century in advance of his time.”3 For a third point of view, W.G. Godfrey cites D.G. Bell as establishing once and for all that the bill was not as radical as it has been portrayed and would not have succeeded in the sorts of changes that Glenie had in mind. Others argue that Glenie’s proposals were bound to fail because he defended them in such an aggressive and seemingly radical manner that he could not maintain the support of his fellow legislators. On the other hand, if he had been less aggressive and radical in his presentation then he might not have gained any attention at all and likewise might not be remembered today. Glenie has become a very controversial character, indeed!

Edward Winslow is sometimes quoted to show that the Glenie era contributed to a better understanding of the parliamentary system within the Assembly. Winslow made similar comments in a letter to Jonathan Sewell but put a different spin on them as follows: “I am sickened at the anticipation of the renewal of our controversies led by Glennie, analyzing all the principles of government, fixing the political longitudes and latitudes, and establishing the boundary lines between prerogative and privilege.”4 John Coffin also had strong feelings and, in 1797, challenged Glenie to a duel. Glenie was wounded in the leg. A neighbour observed that it was a “Pity he fought”, to which Glenie’s wife replied “If Glennie had not fought Coffin [I] would have.”5

Glenie’s influence in the Assembly was waning. It had been five years since a provincial budget had been approved. Every year the Assembly put forth a budget including a pay allowance for their members and, with no line-item veto powers, the Council rejected the entire proposal each time. By 1799 there was political pressure to have a budget and a compromise was forged. Glenie was unhappy with this compromise and launched a vicious attack on his adversaries, but to no effect. By 1801 Glenie was campaigning against the building of a legislature and court buildings, but the Assembly would not support him in this either.

Glenie’s last major campaign was in 1802 over the issue of who had the authority to appoint an Assembly Clerk. The Governor and the Council were in hot debate with the Assembly and Glenie and others boycotted the session to deprive them of a quorum. The session continued, however, and Glenie had once again been out maneuvered.

James Glenie’s career was over. He went to England leaving his wife behind. They say that Mrs. Glenie was left without financial support and that she lived off of the charity of others. Glenie received some appointments in these later years, but essentially disappeared from the record and died in poverty in 1817. He was buried in the churchyard of St. Martin-in-the-Fields, London.
