James Talbot and Kate Miriam (Holcombe) Johnson
50th Wedding Anniversary

Kate Miriam Holcombe was born on 22 November 1888 at Hartford, Hartford Co., CT. She was the daughter of Amherst Lanman Holcombe and Clara Frances Babbitt. Kate Miriam Holcombe married James Talbot Johnson, son of James McNeill Johnson and Annie Betsy Cockman, on 21 October 1913 at Southern Pines, Moore Co., NC. Kate Miriam Holcombe died on 5 February 1973 at Aberdeen, NC, at age 84. She was buried on 7 February 1973 at Old Bethesda Cemetery, Aberdeen, NC.

After their father's death, the family moved to Southern Pines, in 1894, to a farm located on what is now Youngs Road. Kate attended Wheaton College in Norton, Mass. and Mt Holyoke College, where she graduated in 1912. She taught in a small mountain school near Tryon, NC, for a year prior to her marriage to Talbot, who was an attorney in Aberdeen.

The Johnson home in Aberdeen was always open to friends from all over and after their children left for preparatory schools, Kate became deeply involved in civic and charitable work; in Bethesda Presbyterian Church, the Aberdeen Schools and PTA, Mt. Holyoke College Alumnae Circles, the Aberrdeen Library, Moore Memorial Hospital Auxiliary, Planned Parenthood, the local Welfare Program, American Red Cross, Book Clubs, Garden and Social Clubs and the Alfred Moore Chapter of the DAR.

Following is a quotation from a special "This is Your Life" presentation at a meeting of the Alfred Moore Chapter, DAR written November 24, 1970 by the Johnsons' daughter, Betsy Jean Allport, edited by their son, Lawrence McNeill Johnson: "Now 82 years are passed in Kate Johnson's active life, and her hallmark has been made in the lives of the host of friends and loved ones that, if stretched out, would lengthen far out in space and time. She has had an enviable life's record and possesses a personality that has made this community a richer and better place because she has cared as she walked its paths, and more important, she cares as she walks today, slower to be sure, but still with a firmly resolved tread and a devotion to things that are worthwhile."

She died on a Monday morning at home in Aberdeen following a short illness. Funeral Services were held Wednesday at 11 am at Bethesda Presbyterian Church with the pastor, the Rev. W.C. Neill, officiating. Interment followed at Old Bethesda Cemetery.

James T. and Kate H. were enumerated in the 1920 Aberdeen Town, Sand Hill Township, Moore Co., NC, federal census. He was a civil attorney age 31, she was 31. Children in the household were Miriam C. 5, and Betsy J. 1 year 10 months. They were enumerated next door to his parents.

As a farmer, James and his family would have suffered severely in 1816, "the year there was no summer," with temperatures in the 30's and snow in June. Crop failures were widespread and newly shorn sheep died in the cold. Many of his friends and family probably left Granby and settled in the Midwest.

Ozias Holcombe
1737-1812
Photo by James Holcombe

Ozias Holcombe was born on 3 March 1736/37 at Simsbury, Hartford Co., CT.⁶ He was the son of Judah Holcombe and Hannah Buttolph.⁵ Ozias Holcombe married Rachel Cornish, daughter of Capt. James Cornish and Amy Butler, on 20 December 1757 at Simsbury, Hartford Co., CT.^7,8 Ozias Holcombe died on 7 February 1812 at Granby, Hartford Co., CT, at age 74^9,10, and was buried at Center Cemetery, Granby, Hartford Co., CT; Lot O-22.¹¹

Bowman mentions an earlier Ozias that died young. This Ozias is probably the Ozias serving in Captain Samuel Hayes Company in the Revolutionary War with his brother Benjah; and that is what McPherson says. He is listed in the Compiled Service Records of Soldiers who served in the Revolutionary War, Microfilm Publication M881, Roll 361. He was a Corporal in the 18 Regiment, Connecticut Militia, serving in New York from August 22, 1776 to September 26, 1776.

When Ozias was born, the settlement of Salmon Brook, part of Simsbury, was a small group of perhaps forty houses composed of the families of the first settlers: Ozias' grandfather Nathaniel, George Hayes, James Hillyer, and others who all appear in one another's genealogies. But Salmon Brook was beginning to grow.

Fears of the Indians had diminished so that the families of Simsbury that were looking for more land for their sons and daughters to call their own, began to migrate outward to swell the size of this community.

In the 1740's Ozias was a growing up and assimilating the values of his parents, good Puritans, and feeling a growing sense of independence from the older community of Simsbury. The long weekly trips to Hopmeadow to worship were adding to the little society's desire for additional independence.

Judah Holcombe purchased lots in the 1750's in the "Popatunuck" section of Granby, near Mountain and Lost Acres Roads. In 1762 Ozias acquired one of these lots facing Mountain Road. Ozias married and took the responsibilities of farming and raising a large family of his own. This apparently consumed most of his time as he does not appear in any elected or appointed positions in the town.

Like others in the area, Ozias and Rachel began to clear their land and exploited the timber resources, not only to build their house, but also for sale. Ozias and this brothers, Silas and Benajah, all lived in the same vicinity and were full of energy and ambition, throwing up mile after mile of stone walls, clearing out fields and pastures, containing livestock, and marking boundaries.

The 1790 Census of Granby showed 4 Males over 16, 2 Males under 16, and 2 Females.

Butler Holcombe¹

b. November 1768, d. 22 January 1847

Charts: Four Generations of Descendants of Judah Holcombe

Butler Holcombe was born in November 1768 at Salmon Brook, Simsbury (now Granby), Hartford Co., CT.² He was the son of Ozias Holcombe and Rachel Cornish. Butler Holcombe married Temperance Gossett in 1793 at Litchfield, Herkimer Co., NY. Butler Holcombe married Mary L. Knight in July 1806.² Butler Holcombe died on 22 January 1847 at age 78.² He was buried at Lakeview Cemetery, Clarkston, Oakland Co., MI.²

The Cossitt genealogy says Temperance had 6 children. An Oakland Co. Biography from 1891 says she had 5 children, only Elam living. So the last six children belong to Mary. A Butler Holcomb Bible is mentioned. Perhaps Temperance died in childbirth which would account for the 6th child mentioned in the Cossitt genealogy.²

Clarkston, MI history:

“History records 1830 as the date of the first settler on land which is now in the City of the Village of Clarkston. Squatter, Linus Jacox, built a log shelter and planted a garden in the southwest section of town. Jacox latersold his property to Butler Holcomb from Herkimer Co. NY. Holcomb bought 640 acres in Section 20 and 21 from the government in 1831. Marvin Greenwood and Roswell Holcomb came to join Holcomb, building log homes and helping to clear the land.”

“According to a Clarkston News article (1 Jan 1932), when Holcomb settled here in 1832, ‘there were four houses and one store. He built the fifth log cabin’ on what is now Holcomb Street. The article also said he bought 2000 acres, subsequently selling all but 360 acres which went to his son William Holcomb, upon his death.”

“Butler Holcomb brought his family to their new home in 1823. A year later Holcomb built a sawmill, digging a ditch 1 ½ miles long on the east branch of the Clinton River for power.” (The dates are not consistent, he was still in NY in 1830.)

“Butler Holcomb, in 1838, sold the mill and the water rights to the pond to brothers, Jeremiah and Nelson W. Clark. They also bought much of Holcomb’s property.”

Family information about Butler only mentions his wife, Mary L. (his second wife) and sons Daniel and William (his two youngest sons). Also says he bought 480 acres in Section 20 of Independence Township, which was to become the village of Clarkston. He built the fifth log cabin and the first saw mill in town using water power from the mill pond.

Granby Center Cemetery
Plot O-107

Judah Holcombe was born on 12 January 1706/7 at Simsbury, Hartford Co., CT.¹¹ He was the son of Lt. Nathaniel Holcombe and Martha Buell. Judah Holcombe was baptized on 13 April 1707 at Simsbury, Hartford Co., CT.¹² He married Hannah Buttolph, daughter of Sgt. David Buttolph and Mary Buck, in September 1730 at Simsbury, Hartford Co., CT.¹³ Judah Holcombe married Prudence Goodrich, daughter of Col. David Goodrich and Prudence Churchill, after 11 March 1765 at Granby, Hartford Co., CT; from MC CRACKEN

m. (2) Prudence Goodrich, widow of David Hubbard, though I have a note, not now verifiable, that Bailey says he m. (2) at Granby, 30 June 1774, Anna Hubbard.³ Judah Holcombe died on 5 January 1802 at Granby, Hartford Co., CT, at age 94.^14,15 He was buried at Center Cemetery, Granby, Hartford Co., CT.¹⁶

Judah served as Justice of the Peace and Deputy of the Connecticut General Assembly and as such he is considered a Patriot by the DAR. His marker in the Granby Center Cemetery section 0-107 reads as follows: Memoriae Sacrum Judah Holecomb Esa. Daid January 5th AD 1802 Aged 97 years Death is a debt to Nature due which I have paid & So must you.

McCracken notes that Bailey says he married (2) at Granby, 30 June 1774, Anna Hubbard; McCracken however, seems to accept Prudence Goodrich.

His obituary published in the Courant on 25 Januray 1802 reads:

". . For many years sustained the office of Deacon in the Church, and Justice of the Peace. His surviving descendants are 9 children, 57 grandchildren, 129 great-grandchildren, and one great-great-grandchild."

Judah is the Patriot for DAR members 286754, 212606, 290243, and 704276.

Judah Holcombe was born on 27 August 1746 at Granby, Hartford Co., CT.⁸ He was the son of Judah Holcombe and Hannah Buttolph.⁷ Judah Holcombe married Anna Hubbard, daughter of Hezekiah Hubbard and Hannah Olcott. Judah Holcombe died on 2 November 1826 at North Granby, Granby, Hartford Co., CT, at age 80. He was buried at Old Granby Cemetery, Granby, Hartford Co., CT.

His marker in the Baptist Cemetary plot #39 shows death 11/2/1826 at age 81. He was a member of the Baptist Church, Revolutionary War soldier. Seaver shows one wife, Anna; McCracken shows another, Martha Benjamin; Bowman shows both with different dates. In the old Baptist Cemetery on Old Granby Road, near the Judah Holcombe House, there is a tombstone that clearly says "In Memory of Anna, Wife of Judah Holcombe who died 11-27-1828." It seems obvious that all of the children were Anna's; don't know where McCracken got Martha.

The Granby Town Records first mention Judah Junior at the inaugural Town Meeting, December 1, 1786, where he was chosen the first Town Clerk and last mention him in 1814 when he was still Town Clerk.

from Tempest: It must have been an exciting moment in October, 1786, when the Connecticut General Assembly declared that "the Northern Part of the sd Town of Simsbury . . . Shall be and are here by Incorporated into and Constituted a Town by the Name of the Town of Granby & Shall Ever Here after have and injoy all the Rights Privilidges & Immunities That other Towns in this State are Legally Intitled to." Just three years earlier Great Britain had recognized its former Atlantic seaboard colonies as "free and independent states" and now the parishes of Salmon Brook and Turkey Hills seemed to have won an even more important recognition. They were no longer a backwater of Simsbury, but their own community, controlling their own affairs in their own town meeting and electing their own men to run their government.

It was in this context that Asahel Holcomb thumped the gavel at the first "town meting of the Inhabitens of Granby Legally Held at the meting House in Salmon Brook Society on the first Monday of December 1786." Their first act was to elect Judah Holcomb Jr. the town clerk, at which time Judah took up the quill and dutifully recorded the subsequent election of his brother-in-law, Captain Samuel Hays as the town's first selectman.

Dan Holcombe died on 2 May 1812 at North Granby, Granby, Hartford Co., CT, at age 63. He was buried at Baptist Cemetery, Granby, Hartford Co., CT.⁶

His marker in the Baptist cemetery shows death 5/12/1812 at age 62.

The 1790 Census in Granby, CT, listed 2 Males over 16, 3 Males under 16, and 5 Females.

The 1800 Census in Hartford Co., CT the family consisted of the following: 1 male over 45, 1 male 16-26, 2 males 10-16, 2 males 0-10, 2 females over 45, 3 females 16-26, 1 female 0-10.

There is a little confusion here. Dan or Daniel, Hannah Shepherd or Hannah Gillette?

There are probably two marriages here, needs more research.

From Tempest

On October 9, 1717, Nathaniel Holcomb III, eldest son of Nathaniel Holcomb Jr. and Martha Buell, married Thankful Hayes, fifth daughter of George Hayes and Abigail Dibble. He was twenty, she was seventeen. The second generation of the Euro-Americans at Salmon Brook was marrying earlier in life than the first had, and this may explain the tendency for the young couples to continue to live a few years in their parents' households before moving on to their own homesteads. It was not until the fall of 1719, a year after the birth of their first child, Hannah, that they had a house of their own next to "Crooked Brook" at the foot of Bushy Hill (now 45 Bushy Hill Road). There in the winter of 1720, Thankful would give birth to Nathaniel IV. This house was recognized in 1986 as the oldest house in Granby.

Nathaniel and Thankful did not become wealthy, but they did manage to pay off their debts and build a substantial farm. Now in September, 1733, Isaac Dewey of Westfield and Nathaniel Higley purchased the land. They built their new homestead on an 11-acre upland lot just west of their meadow lands, as part of Thankful's inheritance from her father's estate.

Nathaniel would clear the stumps of huge trees, begin his orchard, and build a barn for the animals he hoped to raise. Thankful would keep her garden, process and prepare foods, probably with only a few utensils, and share in the care of the animals. Over the next twelve years she would give birth to five more children in the little borning room in the back south corner of the house. In their next house she would have six more, for a total of thirteen.

Within a year, they would have a few neighbors - all young people they had grownup with at Salmon Brook. Thankful's brother Samuel had married her friend Elizabeth Willcockson in 1719 and her brother George would marry another friend, Jane Matson, in 1722. Both of these couples received lots just south of the Holcomb's. Farther down the path toward Barn Door Hills her sister Sarah and husband John Gossard would soon build a house, and just to her north, her friend Mary Matson and husband Ebenezer Lamson had a new houselot.

After the 1740 marriage of their son Nathaniel to Margaret Gossett, the children of the father and son are confused. For example, both Lydia and Theodosia were born in the same year, as were Roger and Hulda, Ruth and Margaret. Roger can be included with this family because his birth listed his father as Capt. Nathaniel and there was only one Capt. Nathaniel. All other births just listed Nathaniel 3rd or 4th, and the numbers changed when the fathers died.

Kathy Fenton notes in her Nutmegger article that the births of the children for Nathaniel and Thankful are not properly recorded because of "the turmoil within the Simsbury church during that period, a time during which either such events were not recorded or the records have been subsequently lost or misplaced. Apparently for some time before the establishment of the second and third church societies in 1736, residents of Salmon Brook (i.e., Granby) had assembled for services at the home of Daniel Hayes (Nathaniel's brother-in-law) . . "

During Kathy's research they located Nathaniel's probate packet at the Connecticut State Library in Hartford. This provided indisputable proof of the names of all children of Nathaniel who survived to adulthood.

Some authors have listed two other children that are probably children of other Holcombe families, or grandchildren of Nathaniel and Mary.

Zaccheus, who was born in Simsbury, January 14, 1744 or 1745; died July 19, 1762. Seaver does not mention this child. McCracken notes he died at age 17. Bowman and Kathy Fenton both suggest this is the Zaccheus who is the son of Nathaniel IV.

Ruth, the second daughter of this name mentioned by Bowman.

As "Thankful Holcomb," Thankful signed in 1734 with other heirs of her father, George Hayes, deed to part of land of his estate to her half-brother, Daniel Hayes.¹³

Hartford County Probate Records of April 1754 show that Nathaniel was appointed guardian of his sister Sarah's three minor children, Ephraim Case 13, Amy Case 10, and Dorothy Case 7.

There seems to be some confusion about the Benjamin's of the two Nathaniel's. Nathaniel Sr. has a Benjamin born 2-15-1698 and Nathaniel Jr. has a Benjamin born 2-15-1698. Seaver shows a marriage on 10-12-1727 and McCracken shows no marriage but shows Benjamin's death to be 3 April 1701.

David Holcombe was baptized on 30 April 1699 at Simsbury, Hartford Co., CT.^2,6 He married Mehitable Buttolph, daughter of Sgt.

David Holcombe died in February 1784 at Simsbury, Hartford Co., CT, at age 87.

McCracken notes that no birth found but Seaver has him born in 1695, but his parents were married Nov 1, 1695. McPherson shows David and Nathaniel as twins born Oct 25, 1696. Simsbury Records show Nathaniel as the 1st son born in 1695, so Daniel would have followed him probably in 1699 as Bowman asserts. McCracken, in fact descends himself from this marriage, of Daniel and Mehitabel, one of the five couples in which a Holcombe married a Buttolph.

from Tempest

The efforts by Samuel Hayes Sr. and David Holcomb to find homesteads for their third generation children, illustrate the new land settlement patterns of the 1750s. In 1751, David Holcombe, who lived on Salmon Brook St. north of what is now the South Congregational Church, traded some lots with Thomas Adams of Simsbury and ended up with the last lot of the 6th Half-mile tier which Adams had bought from its original grantee. Holcomb held on tho this until 1757 when he gave it to his son Reuben as his share of David's estate. Reuben had already purchased the 5th tier lot to the west of this land to make a total of 180 acres. By 1762, he had bought even more land contiguous to his new farm and moved into a house on the west side of Bushy Hill. (This farm, incidentally, was passed from father to son to son to son to son. The last Holcombs to live and work on the farm were siblings Tudor and Laura Holcomb.)

David Holcombe died intestate so there is no will, but the probate record is available and administration bond dated 23 Feb 1784, signed by Josiah Topping and Asahel Hays, who were sons-in-law of the deceased. The personal estate was distributed to the heirs whose names are the same as stated below, except for the omission of Deborah and her twin; both evidently had died.
