OBITUARY

Isaac Annable, the oldest man in Otoe County, was born November 5, 1810
in Cayuga County, New York and died at this home, five miles north-east of Syracuse, Jan. 6, 1906, aged 95 years, 2 months and 1 day.

He came with his parents from New York to Illinois over fifty years ago where he was married to Anna Crichton. In 1854 they moved to Winona County, Minnesota. He was converted and baptized by Elder Hamlin, of the Baptist Church, at Pine Creek Valley, Minn., in the year 1855. In 1861, he with his family removed to Illinois and in 1873, came West and located on a farm five miles northeast of Syracuse, Nebraska.

There are left to mourn his loss, a widow and four children; tow sons and two daughters, Mrs. G. Murray, Mandon, S. D.; Mrs. A. L. Young, Syracuse, Neb.; Lorenzo Annable, Mead, Nebraska and George Annable, Farmington, New Mexico, all of whom were present at his funeral.

Six children were born to them, one dying in infancy and the youngest, a daughter, died about 23 years ago at the age of 15.

At the heart of his life ws a well-spring of human sympathy that all could feel. He held the unswerving confidence of his neighbors, was loved and trusted in life and is mourned and revered in death.

To his family who will ever cherish his memory, may they all in this hour of sad separation look to Him who is our life, our hope and our resurrection, for a complete unity in a home where there is no death.

ALBERT L. YOUNG is the owner of a very valuable and highly productive farm of 200 acres on section 35, in North Branch Precinct, and is one of the capable citizens of the county. He was born in Onondaga County, N. Y., on the 7th of March, 1852, and is the son of Josiah H. and Mary (Cook) Young. The father of our subject resides at Berlin. When Albert was a little fellow six years of age his mother died, having a place in his life that could never be filled by another.With the exception of about eighteen months in the years 1859-60, when our subject's father was on the Pacific Slope, during which period Albert lived with his grandparents and an uncle, he had remained with the family at home, and when, in 1872, his father came to Nebraska and settled on section 1, Syracuse Precinct, he accompanied him, and continued upon the farm as his father's helper for about four years.In 1876 Mr. Young was united in marriage with Lou E. Annabel, the amiable daughter of Isaac and Anna (Crichton) Annabel. This lady was born in Winona County, Minn., on the 16th of June, 1869. Her education was received in the district school. Mr. and Mrs. Young first settled upon the property where they now reside, the first purchase including 160 acres. This was speedily brought into shape and prepared for his purpose, well improved and supplied with a good residence and the needed outbuildings for farming purposes and stock-raising. The latter has been the chief occupation or our subject and that which has enabled him to make the success in life that he has.Isaac Annabel, the father of Mrs. Young, was born in Saratoga, N.Y., on the 5th of November, 1810, and was the son of Prince and Ruth (Howland) Annabel. The family is of French extraction, but for several generations have been citizens of New England. Mr. and Mrs. Annabel have four children living, viz: Lucy Jane, Lorenzo, George, and Lou E., the wife of our subject. Mr. and Mrs. Young are the parents of three children -- Nettie Bell, Guy Garfield and Ralph Annabel.Mr. and Mrs. Young have made many friends in this district, and are much esteemed for their personal qualities and worth. They move in the best local society and are always accorded a cordial welcome. Our subject is thoroughly interested in all questions of political importance, and usually votes the Republican ticket, of which party he has always been a firm friend and ardent admirer.

Birth:
Bothwell,Edinburg, Scotland

Notes:

In March of 1813, Prince still had a farm in Saratoga next door to Joseph Guile and William Smith. In the 1820 census, Prince is living next door to his brother, Isaac in Cato, Cuyuga county, NY.

Prince, a quiet, thickset little man, had once been a sea captain. All of the Annable family were kind, hard-working gentle people. Prince married widow, Ruth Howland Dewell. To them was born nine children.

Prince moved to Sterling, Whiteside County, IL where he bought one hundred and sixty acres of Federal land on July 22, 1853. County 98, Sec. 29, Twp 22N, Archives Vol. 712, p 007. Section SW, range 06E, Record ID 249340

It is family tradition that he lived in a hamlet known as Hannibalsville, NY on the shores of Lake Ontario sometime during his adult life and before moving to Illinois. This was certainly named after the Annable families living in or near there. Eunice Annable, his sister, used the name Hannibal all her adult life in signing papers.

In the 1880 Federal Census of Otoe County, NE where his son, Isaac lived, it states that his father, Prince, was born in CT. and his mother, b. in NY.

Prince married Howland Ruth about 1804 in Prob. Saratoga County, NY. Ruth (daughter of Howland Silas and de LaFarge Sarah) was born on 20 Dec 1782 in Cuyuga County, NY; died on 26 Jul 1870 in Sterling, Whiteside County, IL. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

According to history written in "The Home Book of the Darius Myer's Family", Ruth Howland was a short, thickset woman who weighed about 200 lbs. Her husband, Prince Annable, was short and thickset also.

Notes:

Isaac, a tailor, from Dartmouth, Bristol, County, MA was among the first to settle the town of Barrington, Nova Scotia about 1761. He was joined by Nathan Snow, a cousin. (VR/Barrington, NS) He had lot No. 49 in the town of Barrington, next to John Coffin who later became his father-in-law. This however, may have been his brother, Ephraim, who married Margaret Coffin.

Isaac was first married to Eunice Swain of Nantucket, Nantucket Co. MA. Their daughter Abigail, was born in Nantucket and a son, Ephraim, was been born in Barrington, Nova Scotia on 3 March 1765. After the death of Eunice, he married Margaret Coffin, daughter of John Coffin who was also originally from Nantucket. I am not convinced it wasn't Isaac's brother, Ephraim who married Margaret Coffin instead of Isaac.

Margaret died sometime before 1772. It is unknown if they had children together.

According to The History of Barrington Township, by Edwin Crowell, page 432/433, Isaac sold in 1785 to Richard Pinkham for 25 pounds his lot and dwelling house. His 2nd Division lot, No. 97 was laid out to him in 1784 but drawn by Richard Pinkham. As his name was not in the 1770 census, it is likely he had moved to Halifax by then. He is listed as having charged rum in Doane's Mog-book. His name also survives in Annable's Shoal, west of Blackberry Island.

Isaac is listed as living in Halifax when his marriage intention to widow, Lydia (Peckham) Delano was announced according to the vital records of Dartmouth, MA.(6 July 1772)

The below are records from Massachusetts Soldiers and Sailors in the War of the Revolution, 17 Vols. Vol. 1, p, 274:

Annabell, Isaac, Dartmouth, was a Sergeant , Capt. Luen Pope's Co., which marched April 21, 1775, in response to the alarm of April 19, 1775, to Roxbury; service; 5 days.

Annable, Isaac, Dartmouth, corporal, Capt. Daniel Egery's Co., Col. Timothy Danielson's reg't.; muster roll dated Aug. 1., 1775; enlisted May 4, 1775; service, 3 mos., 4 days; also, company return dated Roxbury, Oct. 6, 1775;also order for bounty coat or its equivalent in money, dated Camp at Roxbury, Nov. 6, 1775.

Vol. 1,p. 272
Annable, Isaac, Private, Capt. Henry Jenne's co., enlisted March 14, 1781, discharged March 18, 1781, service four days, on an alarm at Rhode Island.

Vol. 1, p. 274
Isaac Annibal was a Private in Capt. Benjamin Alton's Co. Col. John Rand's Regt.; enlisted July 9, 1780; discharged Oct. 10, 1780; service , 3 mos. 11 days, at West Point; enlistmant, 3 months; also order for wages dated Oxford, April 2, 1782; money payable to Col. Jacob Davis.

Bristol County, MA land records (62-164) show that Isaac purchased land in Dartmouth 6 Jan 1781 and sold the same land 10 Apr 1793 and the transaction was recorded 12 Sept 1793 (72-171) when he moved to Saratoga, NY. Lydia signed the deed under Isaac's signature, which would indicate that she removed with him to New York. This land was in Dartmouth, which would later become part of New Bedford. Other property was sold in December of 1780. They were still there when the 1800 census was taken but by 1803, they were in Saratoga, NY. There is some confusion as to whether this is the correct Isaac, still living in New Bedford in 1800 as you will read below.

In the 1790 Federal Census for New Bedford, Bristol County, MA, it lists Isaac as head of the household with 2 males over 16, 2 males under 16 and 4 females. Probably Isaac,Sr. and Isaac, Jr. are over 16, John and Prince, under 16 and three daughters and his wife would be the females. Cornelius was probably born after the census was taken in 1790. Ephraim would have been gone from home at the age of 25 when the census was taken.

Isaac is listed in the Stillwater, Albany County, NY census for the year of 1799. He lived next door to Samuel Leggitt and Gabriel Leggett, then Ephraim Annable. Next door to Ephraim was Thomas Leggitt.

I saac had $26. in real extate and he was taxed $2.00. fro that year. Ephraim, perhaps his son, had $832. in real property and $135. in personal property. He was taxed $96. for the year.

Daughter, Eunice married Samuel Right Brown on February 13, 1803 in Saratoga.

A family history, "Home Folks Book of the Darius Myer's Family" by Violet M. Beck, 1968, a descendant of Prince Annable,states that Isaac, Sr. died at the age of 95 years.

In 1800, the New York census shows two Isaac Annables. One of them lived in Stillwater, Saratoga County, while the other lived in Cambridge, Washington County. The one in Saratoga could be this Isaac and his son in Washington County. Daughter, Eunice was married in Saratoga so this is more than likely correct.

Multiple births in this family first appear with the Snow/Smalley line of ancestors and have followed through for many generations.

Ephriam Annable, who lived in Saratoga, NY during the early 1800's and whose Rev. War records state that he was born in Nova Scotia in 1765 is probably the same as above. There are no vital records in Barrington, Nova Scotia for any Annables. According to the 1790 census in New Bedford, Massachusetts, no other previous children are listed that would fit the age group. Ephraim would have been seven years old at the time Isaac married Lydia. It is, however, according to family tradition, that an Ephraim was born to Isaac and was a half brother to Isaac's children by Lydia.

Audrey Annable Franklin says that Isaac died on 5 June, 1798 but location is unknown.

3: From same source as #2: ANNABLE, WILLIAM, francis Tupper says that Robert Plaiceway, Acue Trip, Wm. Annable, Jonathan Wood, Peleg Coffin and one Isaac Coffee, a negro, very early in settlement of Lpool established a fishery on
Coffin Island, with Peleg Coff as shoreman, and, apparently, the only one with house on Island. Long, Page 63: One of the deeds is from Robert Plaiceway, Acue Tripp, William ANnable, Isaac Cuffey (Coffee?), and Jonathan Wood, conveying to Daniel Torrey "a certain island at the entrance of the harbor know as Bear Island". This is now Coffin's Island.

Isaac married Peckham Lydia. Lydia (daughter of Peckham James and HAMMOND Deborah P.) was born in 1749 in Dartmouth, Bristol County, MA; died after 1803 in NY. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
