Letter from Andrew to Barbara J. McWhirter (7113 Battle Creek Road
Fort Worth, Texas 76116 ) 12Jun2006
The sources for the death of Betsey Burditt (d/o William), comes from
the Medford Vitials. It doesn't say her name Betsey, however it
states "_____, ch. Wid. Burditt, Aug 25, 1788. [inf. William decd',
cough fever fits, a. 14m.,]" Another words a child of Widow Burditt,
aged 14 months. Elizabeth became a widow June 23, 1788, so the
reason they refer to her has widow... The Medford records also has
the baptizim record of "Betsey Burditt, d/o William, June 4, 1787"
The Malden records have her birth as you noted, Jan 1787. The age of
death at 14 months is obviously wrong, but strangly close, even if
they were going by her bapt record, its 13 months.
The Mrs. Elizabeth Burditt that married John Currier, of Newbury, is
the widow Burditt, without a doubt. It sure does match up that your
Elizabeth (Betsey) would be the daughter of Mrs.Elizabeth having
married someone from Newbury... And then whomever gave the data for
her death record info probably know John Currier and Elizabeth, so
when writting the record mistakenly wrote "John" and Elizabeth ...
Unless the Medford death record was for a different child that is not
on the record books anywhere, I would certainly believe that your
Elizabeth was the daughter of William. We really need to see the
orginal Medford books, not the transcripts that everyone publishes.
That helped me on a different line for the Dighton vital records, they
were transribe wrong, Amy instead of Anne, plus the date was transcibe
off from Jan to Jun......I happen to go right to Dighton,MA and find
that out,, some places do have those orginals on microfilm...
I did noticed that other people have Jacob Chase married to an
Elizabeth Sprague, wonder where they got that.... Is it true that they
had a son named Sprague Chase?
Another strange thing is the William Burditt and Lydia Collins
(married 1762 Boston). The Medford records make a note of Lydia, w/o
William, and they think the wife of William that died in 1784 is
Lydia, when in fact is was Mary Oaks,,,so there is errors in the
Medford records. There was also a "child of William Burditt, died
30Mar1773" Most likely from William and Lydia,,,only assumed, could
also be an error....
So bascially the only thing that breaking the connection from your
Betsey to this William is the death record in the Medford
vitals...verifying that would be a good next step...
Let me know what you come up with, my hunch is there is a connection
the more I look into it, only that death record keeps me wondering..
Thanks again for writting,
--------------------------------
from Barbara to Andrew 11Jun2006
Dear Andrew,
I have found your wonderful website "Our Northern Roots" on Google,
and I am writing to ask your help in my longtime search for the
parents of Elizabeth Burditt who married Jacob Chase 6 October 1811 in
Newbury, MA. She was born about 1788. Massachusetts Record of Death
shows she was born in Malden, died in Newburyport, Ma. 23 October
1857, age 69, father as John Burdick and mother Elizabeth - no last
name. She is also known as Betsey. One researcher I have contacted
says she is the Betsey who was born January 6, 1787 in Malden, the
daughter of William Burditt and Elizabeth Hatch, however, I see you
have this Betsey dying as a child.
I see you also have Stephen Burditt b. 1789, m. Susanna Woodwell in
Newburyport as the son of Edward Burditt and Hannah Pratt - I have
always wondered if our Elizabeth was related to him, as well as to
Mrs. Elizabeth Burditt of Malden who married Deacon John Currier June
1, 1802 in Newbury.
I would love to know your sources for the death of Betsey and the
parents of Stephen.
Will very much appreciate any information you may have or any
suggestions for further research. Thank you very much for your help.
I loved your wedding picture!
Sincerely,
Barbara J. McWhirter

In 1808, he located in Pittsford,Vt, and bought one hundred acres of land lying south, or a little southwest, of the farm now owned by Marshall Thomas. There he built a frame house in which he resided eleven years. He then bought the farm upon which he afterwards lived and died. He cleared the most of the cultivated land on that farm and built the house and barn that are on it(1886).

From the Pension record of his uncle Ebenezer Burditt:
I, Thomas Burditt of Pittsford in the county of Rutland and State of Vermont aged seventy-three years last January bring duly sworn depose and say that Ebenezer Burditt late of Pittsford deceased was my father’s brother. I was a native of Lancaster Massachusetts where my father formerly resided. My uncle Ebenezer removed from Lancaster as I was informed before I was born. My uncle Ebenezer came to Lancaster with a team and moved my father from Lancaster Ma to Grafton Vermont in the winter or Spring of seventeen hundred and ninety-six [1796]. I was told that my uncle Ebenezer first moved from Lancaster Ma to Sullivan NH and that he afterward moved into Gilsum NH where he married Ruth Loveland – They moved from Gilsum NH to Grafton Vermont where they resided when my father moved from Lancaster Ma to Grafton Vt. Israel Loveland was the father of Ruth Loveland and he and his family removed from New Hampshire as I was informed before my father came to Vermont. I was well acquainted with Israel Loveland and his family from with Ebenezer Burditt and his family, from the time my father moved to Vermont in seventeen hundred ninety-six [1796] when I was fifteen years old until the decease of the said Ebenezer and Ruth his wife. I resided in Lancaster Ma until I was fifteen years old and I never heard of any other persons residing in that town by the name of Burditt except my Grandfather’s family – I have often heard my father and my Uncle Ebenezer talk of my uncles Daniel and Ebenezer being in the army in the war of the Revolution that my Uncle Daniel was wounded in battle that his leg amputated and died on the service. I removed from Grafton to Pittsford where I now reside in 1808 – My Uncle Ebenezer moved from Grafton to Pittsford in the Spring of Eighteen and thirty and died at Pittsford the same Spring. After the death of my uncle Ebenezer my Aunt Ruth his widow married my Uncle Joshua Burditt with whom she lived until his death in the Spring of 1853. My Aunt Ruth Burditt died at Pittsford in January last. I was [intan____] acquainted with my Uncle Ebenezer and his family and often visited them. After my first acquaintance with them in seventeen hundred and ninety-six - and further say not.

• Military Service: 10 Sep 1814, Rutland County, Vermont; War of 1812 (US) Alarm at Plattsburg(NY) Capt Hendee's Company

Notes:

After the Battle of Plattsburg, George turned his steps to the St.Lawrence River where rafting was being carried along to a great extent. He there hired to work, where French and Indians were his companions and neighbors, the latter being his most trusted friends. After having served in the capacity of raftsman until 1817 he returned to Pittsford, Vt. where his father still lived and paid him $100. This was the price of his time as a minor. After working a farm on shares for one year, in the Spring of 1819, he, with his young wife and brother-in-law, David Wadsworth, set out for the far west, Mt.Vernon, Ohio, where an elder sister, Azuba Hewett, of his wife had preceded them. George and David had each a horse so by putting them together, contituted a team. By hitching them to a lumber wagon they were able to bring all their worldly possessions with them. After journeying for weeks they finally arrived at South Dansville, New York where they were to make his sister, Mrs. Hendee, a visit and to rest for the remainder of their journey. After looking around for sometime and being earnestly persuaded by Mr. and Mrs. Hendee, they decided to remain in South Dansville, David Wadsworth in the meantime put his belongings in a knapsack and with a sad heart, mounted his horse and rode away to the western wilds of Ohio. George then took up a farm where Miner Bridge now resides(1905). After staying there a few years he moved to a farm just west of him, known as the Stevens Farm, where he lived until the Spring of 1831. During his stay in what is now called Rogersville, early in the Fall of 1831, there came a knock at the door. There were Milly's father, mother, widowed sister and two children on their way to Ohio where two brothers and two sisters were awaitng them. After about four or five weeks visiting with their daughter Milly and family they took their departure never more to meet. George, in the meantime continued clearing his land and building as he was prospering. "In the Fall of 1839 his true and noble wife was taken from him by the relentless hand of death." George now had a longing to visit the Old Home once more. So in the Fall of 1840, he, with his nephew, John Mark Hendee, started to Vermont. They were six weeks making the journey. In January the following year he married Racheal Henderson, a widow with two children. In the 1850 census of Dansville,Steuben Co.,NY, George is listed as a farmer and owner of real estate valued at $3,000. Also living with him according to the 1850 census: his wife, Rachel, sons, Paul, Leeds, George Jr., and step-daughter, Abbie Henderson. In his later life, as a Democrat, he was elected to many town offices. "George was a man of sterling integrity and being a man of few words and coming right to the point, he commanded the respect of all who knew him."

Military Service:
As a member of the Rutland County Voluteers, George was on call for the Battle of Plattsburg, during the close of the War of 1812. As the story is told, on the 10th of September the men, including George, who had assembled in response to the call met in the village. After organizing, which occupied the forenoon, the company started for Burlington. Arriving at Vergennes the next day, they drew arms from the arsenal for those who were not supplied and continued to Charlotte, which they reached that night. The following morning they advanced to Burlington, crossed the lake to Plattsburg, but arrived too late to take part in the battle; they soon afterward returned to their homes.

Notes:

From Ian Day, dated 12/13/2001: The information is taken from the book "Shrewsbury, Vermont: Our Town As It Was" by Dawn Hance. In this book there are some super photographs of the Burditt mill and the houses they owned. This book is out of print......of course. If you could add to or correct this information I would be grateful.
In 1826, Daniel Burditt is listed as head of Family with three children enrolled in School District 4 and his brother Abner had one child enrolled. In 1835, Daniel had 6 children enrolled in School District 8 - formerly part of District 4.
(Question: Was Joshua Burditt involved in the lumber industry? We know that he married, at the age of 66, in 1834 in Rutland Co. We know that his son Daniel - born in 1795 - married in 1816 in Rutland Co. The family must have have moved to Vermont from New Hampshire around this time.)
Milling was Shrewsbury's largest industry. The Burditt family operated several mills in the northern part of Shrewsbury. Various members of the family participated in the sawmill industry for over fifty years. William Kilburn owned a sawmill and a gristmill at the junction of Lower Cold River Road and the Wilmouth Hill Road and in 1834 sold the mills to John Buckmaster who deeded them to Daniel Burditt in 1835. (Note: It would be very interesting to find out why this was deeded.) Daniel died in 1850. The mills might have been passed down to the eldest son, Sylvester but he died in 1851. There is no mention of Darius, the next son in line, having inherited the mills. However, the mills did remain in the family until Lowell Jay, Daniel's third son, sold it to Horace G. Hewitt for $312.00 in 1852. By 1860 Rodney Burditt, Lowell's younger brother, had taken over the operation. (The book doesn't say how it returned to the Burditt family) The Burditt Mills manufactured lumber and chair stock. Burditt also ran the sawmill located about 1/8 of a mile west of the Shrewsbury line on the Old Plymouth Road. In 1880 Burditt employed twelve men and milled 2,000,000 feet of lumber annually as well as chair stock. (Note: in the photograph of the Burditt Mill employees, there are far more than twelve men photographed.)
The records for School District 13 or The Union District (Old Plymouth Road Area) indicates that repairs to the school house were to be shared by both Shrewsbury and Plymouth, each paying half the cost not to exceed $150.00. The school population had risen with an influx of lumbermen. In 1896, Mr. E.A. Burditt, owner of the nearby mill, was called upon to contribute twenty-five dollars towards the repairs.
(Note: could this be Elroy Allan Burditt, son of Rodney Burditt....he would have been about 38 years old.)

Daniel married Hannah Oliver on 30 Jun 1816 in Shrewsbury, Rutland County, Vermont. Hannah (daughter of Luther Oliver and Hannah Wheeler) was born on 22 Jun 1796 in Alstead, Cheshire County, New Hampshire; died on 15 Jan 1868 in Shrewsbury, Rutland County, Vermont; was buried in Northam Cemetery, North Shrewsbury, Rutland County, Vermont.
