Ornat — 2009-11-13 17:24:37Z

I am looking for any information on Merchant Pittsley,who married Diadama(Dordama) Pittlsey. Interested in when and where he was born and when he died. Also interested in his Lineage. Can anyone help? He married Diadama 15 oct 1828 in Freetwon, Mass., according to The Vital records of Freetown, Mass. 1686-1890. They had eight or nine children.
He may have been an albino.
Thank anyone who can help.

Please read the waldoayer posts and let me know if there is a connection between Hannah Rebecca Ryder (Rider), 18551, daughter of Charles Rider 1801 or 1803 and a Pittsley. Thank you.

waldoayer — 2009-08-13 18:45:09Z

Does the book have Charles H (?) if it is a H on the census records born 1801 or 1803 married to a Pittsley? One of the children born is Hannah Rebecca Ryder (Rider) born in 1855 and is listed as, I believe, female on the birth cert, but I cannot find a copy of the birth cert, or of Charles'.

Thank you.

I believe I may have found some census data from 1910 that may give me Pearl mother and fathers name. It says Henry B born in Wisconsin & Belle J Olson born in Iowa both living in North Dakota together in 1910. Judging from these pictures that I have it looks to be in North Dakota, too. I could be wrong about this find, but it seems to be at least somewhat correct. The 2 closest sisters match too, Ruby and Carol.

Re: Pittsely, Pittsley & etc...

dvfaulhaber — 2008-12-07 19:57:25Z

Just some extra info that might help...Peal was born in Iowa and married Earl in Alvadore, Oregon. Judging from pictures between ~1920 - ~1955 of Pearls father he seems to be either divorced or widowed because his wife (pearls mother) is never there. I also don't think that he lived in Oregon , I believe he just visited from time to time. I have pictures of Pearls dad visiting San Francisco in ~1920, also. If you would like more info feel free to ask and thanks a ton in advance because any info could help me piece together this part of my family! If my grandmother did not have alzheimers this would be easy, but that is the way it goes I guess...I hate alzheimers (but who doesn't?!)!

dvfaulhaber — 2008-12-07 07:45:38Z

I'm looking for information on Pearl Anna Pittsely born in 1902 who married Earl Fisher in 1924 in Oregon. She died 1982 in Junction City, Oregon. I need to know who her parents are as I've run into a dead end. My father and uncles have forgotten the information and my grandmother is suffering from alzheimer's and can't provide any information. I have pictures of Pearls father, but no label. Pearls father was born in wisconsin and her mother was born in Iowa. Pearls daughter is Alyce Louise Fisher. If anyone has ANY info at all I would greatly appriciate it!

Do you have any info on Charles Pittsley born 16 July 1903 died Oct 1982 possibly the son of Mary Addie and Charles Allen Pittsley married on Nov 27, 1887. He was from the New Bedford, Freetown, Taunton area and I know we are related to the Westgate family because the Westgates live down the road from my aunt in Freetown, MA. His children include my grandfather, Charles Frances, Florence (Gross), Alford, William, Lorenzo, and Sarah.

Hi

I find the following which I believe would be your line.

In the Freetown Vital Record book by Helen Gurney Thomas
birth ____d. Charles & Polly b 5 Jan 1851
This means unnamed daughter of ...

marriage Charles Rider & Polly Westgate, bith res. of F. int. 11 Jul 1848

marriage Hannah R. Rider, 17, d. Charles H. & Mary & Warren F. Fields, 21, sailor, b. Rayn, s. Daniel M. & Phebe B., 3 Nov. 1867 in Brkly.
This means he was b in Raynham and they married in Berkley.

This 1900 Federal Census shows Edgar Brown, Hannah born Jan 1851 and father-in-law Charles Rider living in the same household in Taunton.

Hope this clears things up for you.

GTerry6845 — 2008-11-12 01:46:43Z

Hi

I have not been working on that line.

In Freetown Vital Records is the following under Pittsley
"Mary, 2d d. Elijah & Rebecca...27 Apr 1809"

I don't know if that 2d d. is 2nd daughter or the 2nd daughter named Mary.

There is no marriage for a Mary of Polly to a Rider in Freetown.

It does look like Bartlett and Rebecca are his parents.

Sorry I can't help more.

Re: Percival E. Pittsley

fr732 — 2006-06-21 23:24:44Z

Percival Pittsley was my great grandfather. His sister was Maude Pittsley Foye. Their parents were Albert and Eunice Pittsley. Percival's first wife died, he had one daughter with her Dorothy F. Pittsley. Percival and Dorothy moved in with Maude. After Percival died Dorothy appears on census as daughter of Maude and Louis Foye. We have no record after that of Dorothy. Percival remarried Gertrude Graves. They had three daughters Hazel, Myrtle and Ruth. When Percival died. Hazel and Myrtle went with their mother and we have no further record of Ruth.

cjtay51 — 2007-03-18 17:37:44Z

Hi, I have a bit more of a complex search,and it involves my ggrandma,Viola Tompkins. She was full-blood native american. I have found her on the 1870 NYS census in Lisle,Broome Cty. living with Phylander Pittsley and his family. There are other Pittlsley families in Lisle at this time also. The problem, is that Viola is not listed as a daughter,adopted daughter,niece or anything else.
I know that early on, Tioga Cty in NY was actually part of PA until a astate line was drawn,also at one time,Broome was part of Tioga. I have been told by a cousin,that she believes initiallly, Viola's family was from the Tioga area. I know that she was native american indian, and there is a photo of her in her indian dress. She eventually married my ggrandfather,Benjamin Isaac Schouten. Now, her first marriage,if I am correct,was to a surname,Gilbert.

In 1910, my grandmother,Ruth Elliot Scouten,(Baker) was sent to live Perla and Ella (Pittsley)Willey in Clay,Onondaga,NY. She stayed with them until she and Ralph Baker married. I have been trying like crazy to find Ella's parents. Ella was born in 1883,I think, and she and Perla had three children,Mary,Claude,and Dorothy.

Please help if you can.

What was the second Hannah's maiden name?

Re: Hannah Raymond and Joseph Pittsley

waldoayer — 2008-04-28 05:40:43Z

Thank you again. Just got back into working on this.

Have you done anything on the parets of Hannah, the Hannah who was married first to Warren F. Field(s) and then to Charles Rider?

I have tried to track the Pittsleys by re-reading the messages, but it is difficult to sort them all out.

The Field(s) are worse. He was a sailor and the original birth cert says Daniel W. was his father and Phebe B. Frazier was Warren's Mom.

My husband's grandfather was Silas Everett Field, who was also a sailor or a captain of a ship that went back and forth to England, and who was married to Catherine Lee from England.

Thank you. kati1@verizon.net

Re: Ancestors of Alice Irene Pittsley

Have you come across any Pittsley's from near Taunton, Massachusetts? I am looking for one married to a Field.

Thank you.

Re: Hannah Raymond (Rider/Ryder) Joseph Pittsley

waldoayer — 2008-11-12 01:38:27Z

Have you seen any additional info? I have the marriage cert for Hannah and Warren F. Fields (the Field(s) are a nightmare, along withe a couple of other cemetary records.

Have you seen Eliajah Pittsley and Rebecca Westgate as Polly's (Mary's) parents? I do not understand the notations.

"Polly of Freetown, d. Elijah pittsley and Rebecca, and Charles Rider, 31, farmer, s (son?) B artlett and Rebecca, 10/5/1848, Silvanus (see Sylvanus), Susan 19, d. Darius and Laura and Elisha Chase, 21, labourer" Are these additional marriages near the end or part of the same Polly of Freetown?

I also have Charles H. Ryder (Hannah's Ryder/Raymond/Rider Field(s) (Fields is on her first marriage cert) who deceased 8/8/1902 at 92, 4 months and 15 days was born in Plymouth, MA and reided in Lakeville, bured in Tauton (farmer), but the Ryder's in Plymouth deny that he was related to them. Is Bartlett Rider and Rebecca ? his parents?

Thank you.

Did your John Shaw go to Vermont and/or was the family from Vermont?

Re: Hannah Raymond and Joseph Pittsley

waldoayer — 2007-03-05 00:32:56Z

I just started working on this again and found your message. Thank you again.

My husband said Hannah Rider/Ryder had a photographh of someone in her family who was an Indian. Have you come across anyone in this Rider/Ryder family. Charles shows up in the 1900 census living with Hannah and her second husband Edgar Deforest Brown. There are three sets of Rider's/Ryder's or so I have been told - one in Maine, where Hannah said she was from, one in Cape Cod and one in Vermont (which probably came across from Maine, although no-one wants to admit being connected to each other). I know Hannah and Edgar went to Pilgrim and Indian meetings (separate meetings). Hannah said she also had relatives in Westchester County.

Just thought you may have come across some more information.

Thanks.

Re: Hannah Raymond and Joseph Pittsley

Freetown, MA - Am looking for the birth of Hannah Ryder/Rider, father was Charles Rider/Ryder, married to Silas Field first. Parent of Silas Field supposedly was Warren Field married in Taunton, MA to a Mary. Hannah was born around 1854 and I think her mother was Pittsley, but I cannot find her birth record in Freetown. There is an Adelaide Adams and a Lillian Marble buried in the Mayflower Cemetery with Hannah Rebecca Brown (2nd husband).
