Some time between 1860 and 1863 James married moved to Neva da where his first child was born, I believe that Abel an d maybe George went with James and his wife to Nevada. It i s believed that Indians killed Abel while scouting for th e Army in Nevada. James and his family moved back to Missou ri between 1866 and 1869 because their son Galles was bor n in MO about 1869. In the 1870 MO census it gave that Jame s's mother Jane was living with him and his family, his fat her had died by this time. I believe they were living on th e home place where Ebenezer, Jane and family had moved to f rom IL about 1855.

It is believed that Indians killed Ab el while he was scouting for the Army in Nevada. James an d his family moved back to Missouri between 1866 and 1869 b ecause their son Galles was born in MO about 1869.

Domini Daouglas (?William Domini) was previously linked to the 13th Earl of Morton as his parents. Previous visitors to this site who have downloaded this part of the database are advised to make corrections.

DNA testing of a descendant provides good links back to Nial of the Nine Hostages (qv), but none to any Earls of Morton. It looks like the hypotheses below, and used in Domini's tree, is false.

NOTE: Dominie Douglas, the common ancestor of all the Douglas(s) families names in the foregoing register, was bor n at or near Belfast in Ireland, 2 May 1732 . His parents w ere of Scotch decent and undoubtedly belonged to higher cla ss of society as Dominie well remembered that his father wa s a man of some distinction; had horses and servants and ke pt up an expensive establishment. But both his parents die d when Dominie was only six or seven years old leaving hi m to care of an elder brother who was then an adult, who fo r motives unknown whether good or bad cannot now be known , placed Dominie board a merchant vessel when he was abou t eight years old, providing him extremely well with clothi ng suitable for a gentleman's child.

The captain of the vessel made much of him. They sailed t o Holland and thence to America--Rhode Island at Providenc e near which the captain left Dominie with orders to have h im kept at school until the captains hould return, providin g for his support and schooling for several months. But th e captain never return nor did Dominie ever hear from him o r of his Irish relation afterwards. In those days a voyag e to Europe was a great undertaking and an intercourse by l etters or otherwise was a great undertaking.

The lad was kept at school for some time after the funds le ft were exhausted. When no claim being made for him nor any thing heard from the captain or his other friends, little D ominie was bound apprentice by the town authorities to a fa rmer by the name of Wheaton in Seabank, Massachusetts.

In this family he grew up to manhood after which he serve d several campaigns as a volunteer in the Old French War. R eturning at the close of the war from the northern frontier , he stooped at New Milford, Connecticut where he became ac quainted with Mary Warner whom he married May 5, 1760. Thi s Mary Warner was a good and most amiable grandmother. Sh e was the daughter of Joseph Warner of New Milford, then de ceased, and of Sarah, his wife. She was born at New Milfor d December 10, 1743. Her father died eleven days after he r birth. Her mother remained a widow and died when Mary wa s about thirteen or fourteen years old.

Dominie and Mary settled on a farm three or four miles sout h of the present village of New Milford Church where they r emained about 26 years, (though, I believe, not quite all t hat time on that farm.) there, all their child were born.

Grandfather Douglas served a number of campaigns as a milit ia ,man in the Revolutionary War. (Dominie Douglas served i n t he Revolutionary War as a private in Captain John St. J ohn's Company, 5th Connecticut Regiment commanded by Colone l Philip B. Bradley. He enlisted July 1, 1780 and was disch arged December 27, 1780. (This was copied from records of t he War Department, Washington D.C.)

In the course of that war he lost nearly all his property b y selling his land for Continental bills which soon depreci ated t o almost nothing. I saw some of those old bills in h is old pocketbook. When I ( Laura Hubble Dobell) was a chil d in 1785 or'86, they moved with most of their c hildren t o Shoreham, Vermont where Grandfather Douglas purchased a n ew farm of wild land and with the aid if his sons, cleare d it up. On this farm he reminded , with a short exception , until his death at the age of seventy-five on 4th of Apri l, 1807.

Grandmother Douglas married a second husband, David Cutting , of Orville, the Grandfather of Azariah Cutting Flaggso lo ng known as a comptrolle r of the state of New York, with w hom she lived until her decease 1 March 1819. Her second hu sband, survived her many years and died December 31, 1833 a t the age of ninety-one years of age. Dominie and Mary li e side by side in the small burying ground in the south par t of Shoreham, Vermont. A double stone marks the place of t heir repose. Inscribed on the stone are these words -- "I n memory of Dominie who died April 4, 1807, Age 75 years an d Mary, Wife of Dominie Douglas and afterwards Wife of Davi d Cutting, Died March

Domini married Mary Warner on 5 May 1760 in New Milford, Conneticut. Mary (daughter of Joseph (of New Milford) Warner and Sarah) was born on 10 Dec 1743 in New Milford, Conneticut; died on 1 Mar 1819 in Shoreham, Addison Co., Vermont; was buried in Shoreham, Vermont. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
