I was always told that three brothers came over at time of william penn and settled in little creek or dover hundred Delaware.

I have just begun looking back for my connections. Dad was lenny, son of William lloyd P, Think he was son pf Harry or Henry in tinicim PA, and he was son of John and Dora, and john may have been son of Nathaniel, this is just from census so far. any help would be appreciated

Delaware Pleasanton's mid-1700's

jchill333 — 2005-03-06 22:11:29Z

I'm looking for early 1700's information on the Delaware Pleasanton's. I've traced my Grandmother's family back to David Pleasanton, born circa 1733, died April 1774. He married Deborah Luff (born circa 1740, died 1788) in 1761. I'm new at this but find it very interesting. Any tips for me would be appreciated.

Janice, check your email for reply. John

General Pleasonton

I don't have it documented but, I believe the general is from the Maryland Pleasonton's who moved from Deleware, where the family name is spelled Pleasanton. I believe the town in California, along I-695, is named after the general.

Please get back to me if youn are indeed that John!

I am trying to connect to a Harvey Pleasanton born January, 1895 in Delaware, probably. He died January, 1978 in Kent Co., DE. On January 4, 1920 he married Leatha Sherwood also in Kent Co., DE. Leatha was born September 2, 1897; died June 12, 1984 in Kent Co., DE. Both are buried at Lakeside M. E. Cemetery, Dover, Kent Co., DE. By 1930 they had 2 sons: James born October 23, 1921 and Elmer J. born February 17, 1922. Do any of these people connect with your Delaware Pleasanton's ? If so, please contact me at vze2qtcv@verizon.net. I would like to find Harvey's forebearers and descendants. I am related through his Sherwood wife. Thanks, and sincere regards, Janice

I'm trying to piece together the genealogy of Alfred and Augustus Pleasonton (Generals in the CW). Need a history lesson on the familiy tree.

Have read parents were Stephen and Mary (Hopkins) Pleasonton, of Washington DC., and they had 7 children, most buried in congressional cemetery in Washington..

Thanks in advance..

John, we may have a connection. My gggg grandfather, Griffith Coombe, married Mary Pleasanton in the 1700s. They resided in Washington, DC, but lived orginally in DE. I have been looking for Mary's connections. Her sister died unmarried in Mary's and Griffith's home. I would be interested in your lineage I have a lot to share re descendants of Mary.

E-mail me. BMacKie1@compuserve.com. Pleasanton information is hard to come by. As you will note, you and I are the only ones on this message board, and it's the first I've found in three years.
