Loghry William B.

Notes:

Little is know of William B. Loghry. It is tradition that he came from Ireland. He resided for sometime in eastern Pennsylvania probably in the Northumberland County and also in Luzerne County about ten miles from Wilkes-Barre. One of the same and undoubtedly the above, was a Pennsylvania soldier during the Revolutionary War.

The 1790 Census shows one William Lockry residing then in Luzerne County whose family consisted of one male child under 10 years of age and a wife and one daughter. This coincides with the tradition of the family as told by Mrs. Hannah Jones of Steuben County, NY. Mrs. Jones said that when William came to the area, he went back into the woods ten miles from any house and cleared a place and built a log house to which he took his family, which then consisted of a daughter and two sons, who were then two years of age. When absent from home shortly after they had settled there, one of the sons sickened and died. As the weather was warm, decomposition soon set in and as the father did not return and there was no help at hand, Mrs. Loghry alone dug the grave and buried her child. This had to be a heart-breaking job.

In the tax list of Tioga Point, now Athens,Pa, for the year 1796, there was a William Loughry assessed for $1034 and Michael Loughry for twelve dollars but both names are missing from the census roll of 1800 when it was possible they had both removed to Steuben County, New York.


It is unknown where he married his wife, Nancy Santee whose family also came from Pennsylvania.

Both he and his wife, Nancy are buried at Brown's Crossing, Cameron, Steuben County, NY.

William married Purdy Nancy before 1770. Nancy (daughter of Purdy) was born in 1748 in Clones, County Monaghan, Ireland; died on 01 Sep 1828 in Canisteo, Steuben Co., NY; was buried on 03 Sep 1828 in Brown's Crossing, Steuben, Steuben County, NY. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

He died on his way to Bath, Steuben county, to pick up his annual Revolutionaly War pension of $96 dollars per annum, which he had drawn for sometime.
In the "History of Steuben County, NY by W. W. Clayton, p. 202
John Hallett, who kept tavern near the bridge, half a
mile west of Cameron, Isaac Santee, Joseph Butler, and
Michael Loughry, were the only residents in the town, west
of Cameron Corners, when Capt. Luther White settled
where he now lives, near the Santee place, in 1824.

Family/Spouse: Foster Electa. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Autumn of 1846

Mary married Moore John about 1793 in Canisteo, Steuben Co., NY. John was born in 1762 in Ireland; died on 28 Feb 1836 in Cameron, Steuben Co., NY; was buried in Brown's Crossing, Canisteo, Steuben County, NY. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Joseph Leander Loghry, generally called "Land Joe", was one of the first settlers of the Brown's Crossing area of the Canisteo Valley. Joseph Loughry, who very early ran a saw-mill on the Canisteo river.

He was a mill owner/operator on the Canisteo River at Brown's Crossing. The mill was below (south) and to the left of the area where the new steel bridge stands today.

He bought, probably of Elisha Brown, the original "proprietor" four hundred acres of land for six shillings per acre. This land lay upon both sides of the Canisteo River and later was included in the farms of George Dawson, Isaac Roosa, Jefferson Hadley and Ira Lane.

At this point he built and operated the saw mill which probably stood on the South bank of the river about 50 rods above the river bridge where there appears to be the outlines of a race.

History says in reference to this family, "Among the early settlers west of Cameron were Andrew and Joseph Loughry, who early ran a sawmill on the river".

Joseph, in his youth was an athlete holding records in his native village near Wilkesbarre, PA. He was born about 1777, and married in Pennsylvania, Mary Santee who was born about 1785, daughter of Valentine Santee of Huntington, Pa. (The above is history written by Stacy Jackson of Steuben County in 1923.)

Brown's Crossing Cemetery is just to the right (north) of the bridge and above the site of the old mill. It is the place where the Brown, Loghry, Santee and Moore families buried their dead. All were related to each other.
Joseph, who died at the age of 54 years, and his wife, Mary, who was 45 at the time of her death, are both buried at Brown's Crossing Cemetery. CANISTEO BROWN'S CROSSING CEMETERY - On County Route 119 Eastbound at Brown's Crossing near the Canisteo/Cameron Town line.


When seen in 1995, the cemetery only had one stone left after the river flooded and washed out gravestones and bodies from their resting places. This one gravestone is that of Isaac Santee.

At one time the river was much larger than today. It was used to transport the settlers coming up the river on flatbed boats and barges moving their cattle, household goods and families from Pennslyvania.

There also was a Michael Loghry, who was one of the five residents in Cameron township, west of Cameron Corners in 1824. It was supposed that he was the father of "Squire Joe" but it is possible that they were brothers.

Michael settled in Cameron at a somewhat later date than did Willaim or "Squire Joe" and that he was from Tyrone, Pa. He married but his wife is not known. He probably died sometime before 1835. Mrs. Loghry married a second time to Mr. VanAuker, generally known in later years as grandfather "Nauker".
Mrs. Hannah Jones of Cameron in 1923 said Mrs. Van Auker died at the home of her son, "Squire Joe Loghry" of Cameron.

It is believed that Michael's children were; "Squire Joe", Andrew, William Anson, and Nancy (Snediker).

There was also a James Loghry who resided in Cameron in 1823. There is no record of him other than he was Town Accountant that year.

Brown operated the sawmill, that of her father's at Brown's Crossing for many years and also resided up on the Robert Waters farm at the gulf. (This must be near the old school house up on Oregon Road.)

Mary married Brown Robert Emmett on 14 Aug 1831 in Canisteo, Steuben Co., NY. Robert (son of Brown Samuel Right (Wright) and Annable Eunice Mary) was born in 1809 in Milton, Saratoga County, NY; died on 05 Sep 1882 in Cameron, Steuben Co., NY. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Letty was only 11 yrs old when her father, Joseph Loghry died in 1831. Her mother having died the year before.

A guardian was appointed for her and she was sent to live with Christian Schock and his wife, Catherine and their family. Christian and Catherine were parents of Esther, who was married to George Loghry (Letty's brother) at the time of Joseph's death. Why she was sent to live with them and not her brother is anyone's guess.

In a letter from Virginia Dickey, County Clerk at Bath, Steuben County, NY, she writes that Lettice was born in 1808. However, there was a guardianship appointed for her after her father's death and at the time she was thirteen, two years after his death. Also, according the 1850 census of St. Anne,Iroquois County,Illinois, it lists Letty as being 30 yrs. old and her husband, Erasmus as 42 yrs. old. This would make her birth date 1820.

Erasmus Darwin Brown, Letty's husband, went to live briefly in Ohio, where Letty was living with the Schock family, in-laws of her brother, George. He and Letty were married about 1834. It isn't certain if they were married in NY or Ohio but their first two daughters were born in New York state.

He and Letty moved their small family to Rob Roy, Fountain county, Indiana around 1838 where his third child, Mary, was born. His son, Allen, born in Shawnee, Fountain County, in 1844 was his last child born in Indiana.

'Dar' and his familiy finally moved to the state of Illinois and settled in the wilderness area known as St. Anne sometime between 1844 and 1846 where his son, Samuel was born.

An article written in the old book of the county history, 'Kankakee County History' is the following:

"Few of the early settlers or families of Kankakee County are better represented in its second generation both among its relief and active citizens, then that established here by Erasmus Brown and Letty Loughry Brown, the former born in New York in 1808. This worthy couple to whom in early life came the desire to travel West and ally their fortunes with its undeveloped strength, left their native New York state and settled in the Wilderness of what then was St. Anne but now is Pembroke township, Kankakee County. Loneliness and deprivation were their portion for they had little of this world's goods and there were few neighbors to whom they could turn for counsel or sympathy. Nevertheless, they had grit and determination and their farm yielded of its fertility in response to their untiring labor.

With the passing of years their family increased until seven children played around their hearthstone. Of these, Jane was the oldest." We know that eventually there were ten children born to this couple.

Lettice married Brown Erasmus Darwin about 1834 in Oscaloosa, Mahaska County, OH. Erasmus (son of Brown Samuel Right (Wright) and Annable Eunice Mary) was born on 07 Jul 1808 in Milton, Albany County, (Saratoga) NY; died on 26 Oct 1887 in St. Anne, Kankakee Co., IL; was buried in Old Brown-Hanen Cemetery four miles east of Witchert in Pembroke Township on the old Brown farm.IL.

* 1. unkel Henry Brown is William Henry Harrison Brown, brother to Juliette, Charles first wife.
2. Juliaette is Charles'granddaughter by William Henry Harrison Loghry and Elizabeth Williams.
3. Charles Loghry died two years later on 13 Aug. 1882.



The following is from a letter written by Phil Loghry, gg-grandson of William H. H. Loghry:

By the way, he generally preferred to use his second name, Henry. Henry enlisted in the Union Army on March 29, 1864. He was later captured by the Confederate Army, and held for seven months in the Andersonville Prison. He was ultimately released on a prisoner exchange agreement, April 1, 1865, and was honorably discharged on May 30, 1865. During his time in prison, his wife, Elizabeth took ill and died, leaving their children (Charles, JULIA, and Freddie) homeless. By the way, Freddie was a girl...notice the female spelling of the name; also Charles' obit states his brother (Frank), and two sisters (JULIA and Freddie) preceded him in death. Ok, back to the homeless children; I can only assume that brother Frank and wife Elizabeth Sicklar Loghry took the children into their home and cared for them until after their father was discharged from the Army, since both families at that time lived in St. Anne, ILL. (Real estate records show Frank as owning a home in St. Anne during this period. Henry is not listed of owning property there.) Some of this is only speculation on my part, but it could answer the confusion about who JULIA's parents were...I have no doubt that Wm. Henry, and Elizabeth Williams Loghry were her parents, but (speculation) Uncle Frank and Aunt Elizabeth Sicklar Loghry took her & siblings in for quite a long time, since father Henry needed to re-establish a home after the war. On Oct 16, 1866, William Henry married again, to Mrs. Henrietta Swan, a soldier's widow. There were nine children from this union. Children living to mourn his death, Sept. 6, 1911...Charles Franklin Loghry (my Great Grandfather) Julia E. SWAN of Fowler, Indiana, Freddie Loghry, Dora & Mary Dufrain of Momence, Ill., Retta Fornier, Minn; and Myron Loghry of Tuscola Ill.
