DEDICATION

Mien t h i s project was started in 1958, i t was just that a project. Now some twenty years l a t e r i t has grown into a rather large book. One which I'm very proud. And have enjoyed a great deal, A manuscript was written in 1976 for the Bicentennial. But since that time we have collected more information from the l i v i n g descendants of James & Thankful (Shippee) Tenney. And now I wish to again print the genealogy of the Tenney family i n a more current form.

Needless to say there w i l l probably be mistakes found within these covers„ but we are hoping that they w i l l be minimal.

This book i s dedicated to my b e a u t i f u l mother Mrs. Myrtle Florence ( M i l l e r ) Webb, who was born i n Buckhannon, W.Va. She has l i v e d here i n Oklahoma City since she was 8 years old. In 1907 the family came here on the t r a i n from West V i r g i n i a . She has to l d me many interesting things which happened to the family back i n Buckhannon, West V i r g i n i a , and can remember her grandmother w e l l , and has related many old tales that were t o l d to her as a c h i l d . Her grandmother Mrs, Theresa "Thursday" Cutright Tenney used to set and spin tales by the hour, and although my mother was only a small-c h i l d she rein embers her w e l l . And t h e i r customs aid beliefs.. Even the old ghost stories which were popular at that time. This i s one of the things that got me interested i n our gen ealogy as a c h i l d my* s e l f ,

Mrs, V i r g i n i a Vera M i l l e r Curry, passed away i n 1974. I t was with her help that t h i s book was started many years ago. Without her help i t would l i k e l y never been written . So when I say " We f i n d " , i t means just that. She was a s i s t e r of my mother.

To a l l of the Tenneys who have gone to the Great Beyond, and those whom we hope to be reunited with someday.

To my wonderful husband; and children, who were so patient with mc while they were growing up. And to my b e a u t i f u l grandchildren I affectionately dedicate t h i s work,

Patty Webb Eubanks

Mrs Patty Lou (Webb) Eubanks, b, 16 Nov 1928, i s the daughter of

George Henry & Myrtle Florence (Miller) Webb, was born in the home at

the address 1204 N.W. 53rd St., Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. She went.to

Horace Mann Grade School, Harding J r . High, and graduated from Classen

High School in May 1946, On July 8, 1946 she married a long time friend

Randall George Eubanks„ He had just returned for serving in the China

Burma area. He returned to college at Oklahoma A. & M„ where they lived

for 4 years. He again joined the service in 1952 and they lived in

Lawton, Okla., Germany and Baltimore, Maryland. Randall then went to

Korea and returned in December 1958.

They are the parents of 3 children; Shirley Ann (Eubanks) MeLeod,

Barbara Ellen (Eubanks) Gabral, and Gary George Eubanks. They have

Patty Webb Eubanks started genealogical researching when she be­

came a member of The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints 'Herman"

in 1956. Since that time she has taught genealogy to her church members,

in a Catholic Church in El Reno, Oklahoma (cont. education.) And at Oscar

Rose Junior College for 3j> years. She has also worked in food service and

as a key-puncher for 3 years, but her f i r s t love is genealogy.

She takes much pride in being a wife a mother and a grandmother.

Her travels doing genealogy on the Tenney family have not been many, but

her research in libraries have amounted to several thousands hairs.

MJjJMRIAGE RECORDS

Marriage records of long ago;

Interesting? I find them so.

Young people these in a nation new,

Who lived and loved and married, too.

Much more to me these records state,

Than name of bride, of groom, and wedding date;

Young builders these of the pioneer home,

Where the princ pies of freedom were rooted and grown

A nation young but growing fast,

Ask much of i t s youth. So great i t s task

They met the challenge; well the part they played.

Our nation rest on the foundation they l a i d .

Our fullness of l i f e , our freedoms, we know

in a country new were not always so.

Our traditions, our heritage, l i f e the American way

Had, their beginnings with the youth of that day.

They met the challenge in the s p i r i t of their time.

Can we do as much? It's yours now and mine.

The sp i r i t of our time? America's task?

The answer was given before the question was asked.

Turn to the records of long, long ago;

The blood of their veins i s the same, you know,

That flows through ours, but, oh, let us pray

For the faith of our Father; How we need i t today.

4. Thomas TENNEY, (Thomas3,Francis2, John*), was b. Rowley, Essex,Maes. 16 July I648. He was the son of the immigrant, Thomas Tenney. (I w i l l here gU& more information on the immigrant.) Thomas Tenney Sr. was a member of the Rev. Ezekiel Rogers' company from Yorkshire, England, arriving at Salea Mass., in December, 1638, and settling at Rowley, Massachusetts in April 1630 (Gage's History of Rowley, Mass.) In a deposition taken at Ipswich, Mass. 4 May 1680, Mr. Thomas Tenney testifies in relation to an ox pasture in Rowley, age 66 yrs. of age then. (Ipswich Deeds, Book 4, p. 329.) His wife Ann is men­tioned in the w i l l of Deacon Thomas Mighill, as sister "Ann Tenney".

Mrs. Ann (Mighill?) Tenney was buried 26 Sept 1657. And Thomas Tenney Sr, m. after her death, (2) Elizabeth, a widow of Francis Parrat of Rowley.

It does not appear that they had children. Mrs. Elizabeth Tenney rec­eived by bequest of Rev. Ezekiel Rogers L10 in 1660-1 (Essex Deeds, Ipswish, 168). In the w i l l of Robert Hunter, viz., "to Thomas Tenney I give 10' dated 5, 6 mo., 1647: proved 28,7,1647 (Ipswich Reocrd, Vol 1, leaf 25), Thomas Tenney, a witness to the w i l l of John Smith of Rowley, 13 July 1661: on f i l e No. 22590, used only one e in Tenny."

A survey of the town of Rowley was ordered the 10 of the 11th month, A.®. 1643,* a committee of four freemen were appointed. Freemen were members of the' church, taxpayers, voters, could hold office, and they only until I664, when the law was abolished by the General Court. Town re® rds dated 4 Feb 1661 states the following;-

Because of the volume of Information which has.fallen into the hands of Patty Webb Eubanks between the years of first book printed in 1976, and this new book printed in 1978, we are changing our system. And since we have not as yet connected our Josiah Tenney to the family of Moses & Mary Shirar Tenney, as hoped, we cannot continue the link from Part I. So we w i l l treat Part II as a seperate book and w i l l start the numbering system over again. Josiah Tenney, who is proven to be the father of our James Tenney w i l l appear as #1, and our James Tenney who m. Thankful Shippee w i l l be #2. Thus continueing down the lineage.

CHAPTER I

DESCENDANTS OF JAMES & THANKFUL SHIPPEE T mm James Tenney' s Revolutionary lax-. Essani as reviewed i n "The Delta"

Newspaper from December"'14/"1972~to January 18," 1973. By Ralph L. Tefiney.

TENNEYS TRACE ANCESTRY BACK TO REVOLUTIONARY WAR SOLDIER

The winter of 1780-81 was one of unusual severity and unusual cold weat­her settled on the Hudson Valley two weeks earlier than ordinarily. The fort' depended on great quanities of firewood to keep the soldiers "huts" warm in winter. .During the several years of war's duration, the nearby areas were denuded of wood.

Wood was being cut for the fort several miles upriver from West Point to be transported by boat to i t s destination. The early freeze up of the Hudson prevented the delivery of firewood in time and resulted i n great'suffering among the troops. The records show that orders were Issued against the prac­tice of some of the soldiers of tearing off the outer layer of the walls of the "butts" which they used for fuel to keep from freezing.

The outer works of the fort were equipped with spears with wooden shafts, evidently for use in the event that during an attack the fefenders ran out of powder and shot, or in case there were just not enough guns to go around. These wooden spear shafts, too, were sometimes burned during this shortage of firewood. The daybook of the officer of the day reports that orders were issued to have a l l the damaged spears brought i n to be fitted with new shafts and any future use that might damage them was s t r i c t l y prohibited, including their use "to prop up the chimneys of the stoves in the redoubts."

Another very archaic weapon which was used in the Revolutionary Army at the time was the "Espontoon," a short-handled lance which was required to be carried by a l l non-commissioned officers and a l l commissioned officers up to and Including the rank of captain.

In James Tennejfe •letter In the Archives, he described an expedition on which he was sent down the Hudson during a "spring breakup of the ice when the rafts and towers In the river supporting the huge chain which the Americans had suspended across the stream to block the ships of the Br i t i s h Navy from sailing up the Hudson, were upset by an Ice jam.

Their assignment was to right the rafts and replace the chain. This must have been a*¥ormldable-undertaking while the water had ice floating on i t s surface.

He was sent on another expedition to Philadelphia after the end of the war to stop the rioting by American Veterans, who, angered b not receiving their pay, had broken into and looted the treasury.

In the military records of James Tenney located i n the National Archives, Washington D.C. are found letters written by him regarding his application for a pension, his honorable discharge, signed by General Knox, the commander of West Point, pay vouchers from the First Massachusetts Regiment to which he belonged and letters from persons who knew of his service i n the Revolution,

and wrote to affirm the fact of his service in the Continental Army.

One of those persons was Rev. Asa Brooks of French Creek, on of the well known Brooks family « .that commuptty... Rev. Brooks lived in New Hampshire, (the part of the state that was incorporated in the state of Vermont). His home was near the town of Charlemont, Massachusetts, where James Tenney lived u n t i l the time of his enlistment i n the 1st Massachusetts Regiment and was well acquainted with James at that time.

Declaration i n order to obtain the benefit of the Act of Congress of the 7th of June 1832.

State of Virginia Randolph County

On this 27th day of August, in the year of our Lord, 1832, personally appeared in open court, before the Worshipful the County Court of said county and state aforesaid James Tenney, aged nearly 66 years, who being f i r s t duly sworn according to law doth on his oath make the following Declaration in order to obtain the benefit of the Act of Congress passed June 7, 1832.

That he was born on the 21st December, 1766, and not having any documents to assist his memory which has become somewhat f r a i l he i s unable to specify dates wi + v. nerfect accuracy; but |ays that he enlisted i n the Town of Shelbum

where he then resided, in the State of Massachusetts under Lieutenant Shepherd in the year 1780, in the month of December, he thinks, and marched to Spring­field in the same state where his company was enrolled and drilled by Lieut­enant Shepherd until the soldiers there were ordered to West ?-o§£&7~;'~

At West Point he was placed in the 1st Regiment of Massachusetts, conten­ded by Colonel Joseph Vose or Yoss. The f i e l d officers were: Colonel Joseph Vose, and his brother Elijah Vose, lieutenant colonel; and Major P e t t i n g i l l and adjutant Bowie and he, this applicant, was placed under the immediate command of Captian Green.

During the time he, this applicant, was i n the service he was detached from headquarters which were at West Point on several occasions, but cannot specify the dates. He was marched to Verplanta's and thence to Groton and back to West Point.

At another time he was placed on board of a gunboat i n the Hudson River below West Point and opposite Fort Montgomery, at the point of Anthony's-Nose, where the Old Chain had been stretched across, and thence he was order­ed back to West Point. Af another time he was sent down the Hudson on one of the spyboats under Lieutenant Shaler (he cannot ranember the Captain's name) to Sing Sing, opposite Gerry Town, and after remaining there sometime was ordered (amongst those who never had had the smallpox) to the York huts to be inoculated, and passed through West Point again on the way to the York huts where he was inoculated and remained the Winter, and thence was march­ed back to the Flats above and near to West Point where he was stationed for sometime.

He, this applicant, i s not certain that these services were performed in the order they are stated but the last winter of his service he was station­ed at Snake H i l l (west of New Windson and about five miles, he thinks, from West Point.)

He, this applicant had enlisted for three years and, as his term had not expired when peace was proclaimed, he was detained u n t i l the 28th day of October 1773, and before he was discharged the brigade to which he was attached was ordered to march to Philadelphia, under Colonel Vose afore­said, and Captain Kilham was the Captain of his (Applicant's) company.

His brigade was marched to Philadelphia for the purpose of quelling a mutiny or insurrection, which had broken open the treasury.

From Philadelphia the 1st Regiment of Massachusetts Regulars, to which this applicant was attached, was marched back to West Point and there (at West Point) he received his discharge from General Knox which i s dated on the 28th day of October, 1783.

This applicant was a substitute, he believes, for his father; but he is not certain whether his class was drafter or volunteered or either. He says, that his father, Josiah, took from him his bounty money but allowed him to keep his wages or pay.

One might shead some light on his l i f e and family. We only know that he served as a Selectman for Shelbume, in 1777 (Sept.) and was discharged in October 1777 (D.A.R. rec. Vol. 13, p. 774. L i t t l e else is known. His son served in 1781 in his father's place, and names him as Josiah Tinney/ Tenney. (Note, both Tinney and Tenney was interchanged, one time they would use Tinney and the next time Tenney. It was not un t i l the family moved to ftest Virginia was the name changed by most to the name of Tenney However you w i l l s t i l l find a few who insist on using the old English way Tinney.)

FS OF JAMES & ABIGAIL (PACKARD) TENNEY

James TINNEY Jr:, son of James & Thankful Shippee TINNEY/TENNEY,b. 6 Jan 1786, Charlemont, Hampshire (now Franklin) County, Massachusetts; must be the one who we find living in Nicholas Co. 7a, In 1830 census, in Braxton Co. Va. in the 1840, and the 1850 census. He is last found in the 18^0 census living with his son Ancel Tinney in Lincoln Township, Braxton Co. Va. Hie wiff was gone in the 1860 census, so we are supposing that she d. between 1850 & 1860 census. He does not show in the census in 1870 in Braxton Co., however he shows up in Washington District, Upshur Co. (Grim's Store'Post Office is given for the location.) He is living at that time with his son Addison. He and his family seemed to have kept the name TINNEY rather than changing i t . .He is buried in the Zickafoose Cemetery, Hemlock, Upshur Co. W.Va. We do.not have the date of his death. He m. Abigail Packard either in New York or in Va.. We do know that she was from New York, hut have not found the name of the county. Perhaps not far from Charlemont, Mass.' There are found in Vit. Records to 1850 c 1 Charlemont, Mass. some families by the name of Packard perhaps Abigail's relatives. We put the following family together from the census and from known family records 'compiled by Junior Tenney.

Westfall genealogy taken from "Hist. of Upshur Co.W.Va." by W.B. Outright,p.594. Among the pioneers of Randolph, Upshur, Barbour and Harrison Counties is found

the German name Westfall (WestPhal), their ancestors came to America from Germany, that portion known as the Westfalien, and later known as the District of Westph­a l i a , and settled in the German settlements of Pennsylvania and then to the country to the south branch of the Potomac.

In 1772, James Westfall and a large family of children and grandchildren, came from the south branch of the Potomac and settled in Tygart's Valley, sel­ecting the site of the town of Beverly, and the sons settling in different port­ions of the country. This was at the time when Virginia was making the offer of exemption from taxation for fifteen years and 400 acres of land and a pre-emption to 1,000 acres more adjoining, if the settler built a log cabin on the land and raised a crop of corn. '

Here the Westfalls found and buried the bones of the Files (Foyles) family, whom the Indians had kil l e d nineteen years before, (1753).

Here also on the lands of Jacob Westfall was built the Westfall Fort in 1774. Family tradition has i t that Jacob Westfall, prominent in the early history

of Randolph County as a member of the f i r s t county court, f i r s t sheriff, f i r s t county lieutenant of the m i l i t i a and second county clerk, was a son of James Westfall, the hardy German pioneer, who settled at Beverly. Jacob was the father of Zachariah Westfall, and Zachariah Westfall m. Hannah Wolfe, an English g i r l i n 1788, They were the parents of:

1. George Westfall; m. Ruhama Outright, dau of Isaac & Outright. 2. Clark Westfall. 3. Owen Westfall. 4. Elizabeth Westfall. 5. a dau who m. Mr. Casto. 6. a dau who m. Mr. Queen. 7. Ruth Westfall. 8. Hannah Westfall.
