He removed with the family to Elizabethtown, N. J., in 1665, and was one of the original Associates. He took oath of allegiance to King Charles II., Feb. 19, 1665, and was then called one of the '5 full grown boys' of Good Old John."

     David Ogden [Og3] Ogden Family, p 43:

"DAVID OGDEN (John), b. England, Jan. 11, 1639; d. bet Dec. 26, 1691 (date of will), and Feb. 27, 1691-2 (when will was proved); m. circa 1676, ELIZABETH (Swaine) WARD, b. Apr. 24, 1654; living in Jan. 1706; dau. of Capt. Samuel Swaine and Johannah Ward, his wife, and wid. of Josiah Ward.

David Ogden, as said of his brother John, Jr., was born in England. He was twin to his brother Jonathan, and came to eastern Long Island early in 1640, living with the family at South- or Northampton, Long Island, until the family removed to Elizabethtown, N. J., in 1665. He was twenty-six years old at the latter date, and is in that year named as one of the original Associates of Elizabethtown. He had taken oath of allegiance to the English government of New York on Feb. 19, 1665, probably while on Long Id., as the family settled at Elizabethtown, N. J., about the middle of that year. [Cf Hatfield reference below which says he took the oath in Elizabethtown]

The 'Newark Town Records' of 1670 state that nearly all the trades and callings necessary to the convenience and comfort of the colony were represented; among them is mentioned 'a stone church builder, David Ogden.'

..."

     Benjamin Ogden [Og6] NJ Wills 1670-1730, p 344:

"1722 July 9. Ogden, Benjamin, of Elizabeth Town, Essex Co., bricklayer; will of. Wife Hannah. Sons - Benjamin, John, William. Mills and meadows, owned in partnership with John Harriman, 100 acres of woodland, home lot on South side of th ecountry road, house and pitle on the same road. Personal estate. Executor - the wife, nephew Joseph Woodruff and Benjamin Price junior. Witnesses - Samuel Whitehead, James Crighton, Elisha Whitehead. Proved November 30, 1722. Lib. A, p. 229"

The Ogden Family, p 47, gives his birthdate as 1654, but as I read its argument, I believe it should be 1652. This is consistent with his being 13 in 1665 and "of age" [21] in 1673. Here is the footnote from that page:

" "Hatfield's Hist. Elizabeth" makes this early mention of Benjamin Ogden: "Two more sons of John Ogden, Joseph and Benjamin, had come to years." After speaking of other young residents, it is stated, "these all had grown to men's estate since 1665." This entry is made in 1673, showing that Benjamin was about 13 yrs. of age when he came with his father to Elizabethtown, N. J., in 1665. On Sept. 11, 1673, he was one of the Elizabethtown settlers who swore allegiance to the Dutch."

However, I do not understand the logic of his being 13 in 1665. Benjamin was born in 1654.^3,4 He was the son of JOHN "The Pilgrin" OGDEN [Og1=Ogxxxvii] and JANE BOND. He married Hannah Woodruff circa 1679.^5,1 He made a will at Elizabethtown, Essex, New Jersey, USA, on 9 July 1722.^6,7 Benjamin died on 20 November 1722 at Elizabethtown, Essex, New Jersey, USA.^3,8 Benjamin's will was probated at Trenton, Mercer, New Jersey, USA, on 30 November 1722.^6,9

     Mary died at Elizabethtown, Essex, New Jersey, USA.¹ Mary was born at Stamford, Fairfield, Connecticut, USA, in 1644.^2,1 She was the daughter of JOHN "The Pilgrin" OGDEN [Og1=Ogxxxvii] and JANE BOND. She married John Woodruff 2d.^3,1

     He married Martha Bebout at New Providence Church, New Providence, Essex, New Jersey, USA, on 15 November 1789.²

     Thomas Thompson is the son of Aaron Thompson. He married Abigail Ross on 1 December 1763.²

     He married Hannah Roff.²

     Jonathan Parsons First Settlers, p 315:

"5. Jonathan, born 7th Nov. 1764, married, 30th December, 1790, Elizabeth Allen, daughter of Daniel Allen. He died 9th Sept. 1821, aged 57 years. She died 4th July, 1844."

Also, p 317:

"JONATHAN PARSONS, (son of William, Jun.) lived where his son, Luke, now does; he and Elizabeth Allen, had children: 1. Eliphalet ... 2. Samuel Cory ... 3. Charlotte ... 4. Luke ... 5. Anne ... 6. Mary ... 7. Jonathan ..." Jonathan was born on 7 November 1764.² He was the son of William Parsons Jr and Mary Searing. He married Elizabeth Allen on 30 December 1790.² Jonathan died on 9 September 1821 at age 56.²

One hundred and Sixteenth Ohio Infantry, under Gens, Hunter and Sheridan, and was in the battles of Winchester, Cedar Creek and others.

     Abraham Clark Parrott From Dale Parrott's website:

"Abraham Clark Parrott

A.C. Parrott. farmer and stock raiser in Section 14, South Platte Township, homesteaded eighty acres in 1876, and located on his farm in January, 1877. He was born in Virginia in 1853, early became familiar with the details of farm life, received his education in Ohio, and when twenty four years of age came to Hall County, Nebraska, where he engaged in farming on his present property. He erected a sod cabin in the spring of 1877, and lived in that until the fall of 1883, when he erected a good frame house, improved the place, set out an orchard and now has his farm in a good state of cultivation. He was married in Hall County, Neb, in 1879, to Miss Marion Gray, a native of Wisconsin, and the daughter of Robert and Rachel (Chambers) Gray. natives of Ogdensburg, N.Y Mr. Grey moved to Walworth County, Wis, at an early day, and in 1878 emigrated to Hall County, Neb, settling in South Platte Township, where he purchased a partly improved farm. He died in Hall County, March 20, 1888, but his wife is still living and makes her home in South Platte Township. Mrs. Parrott had three brothers in service during the late war, Dallas enlisted in the artillery, and was all through the war. His death occurred in Montana, in August, 1880. Bruce enlisted in 1863 in the cavalry, took cold, came home and died with the consumption. Leslie enlisted in 1863 in the infantry service, was in active duty for some time, and was coming home by way of the Atlantic when the vessel in which he took passage was lost with all on board. After his marriage Mr. Parrott settled where he now resides, has a well improved place, likes the State, and is one of its prominent citizens. He is not active in politics, but votes with the Republican party. To his marriage were born five children: Robert, Luda, Georgia, Ora, and Johnny (who died in infancy). Mr. Parrott is the son of Abraham and Margaret (Burchard) Parrott, natives of Ohio. After their marriage the parents settled in Virgina and remained there some time, the father engaging in teaching school. His death occurred in May, 1853. The mother died in Hall County, Neb, in January, 1889. They were the parents of six children, A.C. being the youngest. One of these children, William, was in the service, He enlisted in Company I. One hundred and Sixteenth Ohio Infantry, under Gens, Hunter and Sheridan, and was in the battles of Winchester, Cedar Creek and others. He was taken prisoner, confined at Libby, Belle Isle and Castle Thunder, and was in the prisons of the South for several months. He received a gun shot wound at Cedar Creek. Our subject was among the pioneer settlers of Hall County, and has always taken an acttive interest in all that relates to the good of the community.

This says he was born in VA in 1853. Dale Parrott's genealogy gives "b 12 Feb 1853, Coolville, Virginia-WV". There is a bit of a mystery here. It is true that WV was part of VA until 1863 - ie, when Abraham was born. But Coolville is clearly in OH, although only about 5 mi from the border of WV (formerly VA). This probably means that he was born on a farm in VA, a few miles outside of Coolville (and across a river from it!)
