Re: Laura Ann Bannister Hartsough

jlbrewer — 2012-05-14 19:11:36Z

Hi Patricia,
Peter Herzog/Hartsough was b. 10/14/1794 and d. 03/08/1853. If this is the Hartsuff you are looking for his father was Henry Hartsough b. 10/10/1772 and died 04/17/1826.
Mother was Sarah Van Ness b. 08/05/1774 and d. 03/11/1831.
I am a descendant of Joseph Hartsuff who migrated to Michigan.
Do you need more information? Glad to help.

Do you happen to know who Peter Hartsough's father is? I made a copy of the Hertzog-Hartsock-Hartsough book, and they do not say in there who his father is.

Christopher Bannister- Dodge County, WI

Edent0388 — 2012-01-04 23:51:41Z

I am searching for any information on Christopher Bannister of Theresa, Dodge County, Wisconsin. He was born abt 1816 in New York and married to A. E. or Armena? (according to the 1850 census) He was the postmaster in Theresa. I would love to find the name of his wife. It looks like she died before the 1860 census. Any additional help would be appreciated.

Parents
John Banister
1770 – 1820
Lydia
1767 – 1850

2nd Spouse & Children
Samuel Sayre
Mary Ann Sayre 1829 – 1895
Celia Jane Sayre 1833 – 1888

1st Spouse & Children
Isaac Ford 1794 – 1827
Lydia Jane Ford 1819 – 1882
John Ford 1821 – 1863
Elizabeth Ford 1822 – 1873

Rachael and Isaac moved with their family to Arkansas. Isaac died there. Rachael returned to Catahoula.

She eventually married Samuel Sayre. Children from her first marriage were raised by their maternal grandmother, Lydia Banister, when Rachael moved to New Orleans with her second husband.

Rachael's family in Catahoula heard that she and her children were living in poverty in New Orleans. The family tradition is that Samuel Sayre was an alcoholic.

Upon her death, her brother, John Banister, went to New Orleans and received authorization from the court to take her children back home with him to Catahoula where they were raised with the Banister/Ford half-siblings.

Re: William Bannister

I believe I am a decendant of Pleasant Bannister/Mary Polly Crum through their #6 child, Anderson M Bannister b. Feb. 1843, Inez, Martin Co., KY; then my grandfather and father. Thus, Pleasant would be my gggf. I believe all of my male ascendants were the youngest of their respective parents' children. I have just recently started researching my Bannister/Banister roots. I don't know if you have found the following Crum connection, but it may be helpful: http://reocities.com/Heartland/Acres/1419/crumfamily.htm.
If you would care to share info, I will certainly put it to good use and share my results with you. Currently, I am still in the process of putting together Pleasant/Mary decendants. Please let me know you received my note. Thanks.

Hello,
I was reading your message and I have putting together a Bannister on Abraham Bannister Family. He was married to Emily Dawson first on January 14, 1869 and had 3 boys, Arthur(my 2x grandfather), Joseph and John Lee and 4 girls Margaret, Emily, Mollie & Laura. After the death of his 1st wife, He married Emma Gray Lee on January 17, 1888, but they didn't have any children. Abrahma had a daughter named Mary Elizabeth Bannister, born March 12, 1899. All of this information was wrote in his bible. Please contact me on my email: barbaramcghee54@comcast.net or via phone 540-317-5068, we just might have the same family. I am also related to Hopkins, Adkins/Atkins, Simpson, and Gray. Some of the Banisters are located in Rochester, NY

Re: BANNISTER-OLD FIRST WARD BUFFALO NY

billkaren21 — 2011-07-20 23:04:12Z

I think that I have found some information on Irene E. Bannister. Arthur J Bannister and his parents were born in N.Y. Arthur's wife was named Mary A. she was was born in NY and married Arthur at the age of 16. Mary's parents were born in Ireland. Arthur and Mary had four daughters Eileen J., Evelyn, Irene E, and Grace A. Arthur worked as a brakeman for the railroad. The son of William and Sarah sometimes went by the name of James Arthur. I believe Irene is the Bannister you are referring to.

Re: Thomas Bannister of New Brunswick, Canada

carolynb5j1 — 2010-08-19 19:06:55Z

I don't know how much help this will be beyond moral support as my information seems to come from compilations and family stories. but I have Thomas Bannister as marrying Rosannah Steeves born about 1843 in Hillsborough and died 12 Apr 1877 at Little River, Elgin. Her death notice confirms the age but not who her parents are. Rosannah Steeves was on the 1851 census with Joshua Steeves and his wife Rosanna Jacques. Rosannah would have been the youngest child with her mother being in her early 40s when she was born. As Joshua died before her, if his will was probated, it might shed some light? If I find anything else I'll contact you.

Thomas Bannister of New Brunswick, Canada

vickiha — 2010-07-19 00:18:27Z

I am trying to confirm that Thomas Bannister, son of Thomas Bannister and Mary Sears, was married to Rosehanna or Roshanna Prosser, daughter of Solomon Prosser and Elizabeth "Betsy" Geldart. I have found some evidence that I may have this wrong in my tree. My data comes predominately from compiled genealogy information and when trying to track this couple down in the NB census, I'm questioning if I have the wrong couple. Thos was born in 1828 (I believe in Prosser Brook, Elgin Parish, Albert, NB) and Rosehanna was born abt 1846. It appears that Rosehanna may have been a Steeves, not a Prosser. Or at least that's what I'm finding.

Thanks much for any light you can shed on this couple.

Re: Laura Ann Bannister Hartsough

PmcGath — 2010-06-06 20:22:01Z

Laura,
I don't know why. My family is Hartsoch. My grandmother told my mother that their name used to be Hartsough. My mother didn't know if it was true or not. Now I believe that it was since I can only go back to a John Wesley Hartsock (b. 1825) that married Ann Rule in 1845 in Tiffin, Ohio and then spent the rest of his life living near a Samuel Hartsock in Indiana and I caan find no connection to a Samuel. John Hartsock shows up as John Hartsoch in the 1850 census. Why are there Hartsuff, hartzell, hartwig, hartsough, hartsaugh and many other variations in the census. It was all in how the name was pronouncerd andf how they thought it was spelled. Good luck and let me know how far you can go back. I read someplace that Laura was the oldest resident in NY and I believe the town was Ithaca. Not sure, though.

Re: Laura Ann Bannister Hartsough

jlbrewer — 2010-03-18 14:16:58Z

Hi,

I live in MI where Joseph Hartsuff settled b. 5/10/1810
d. 11/14/1867.
Henry Hartsough was Joseph's father b. 10/10/1772
d. 4/17/1826.
Zachariah Hartsough was Henry's father.

Joseph came to MI from Seneca Co., NY and settled in Branch Co., MI in 1833. Records list him as Joseph Hartsough. From there he moved to Livingston Co., MI in 1835. Land records list him as Joseph Hartsuff. That is when the name change occured in our branch of the family. Why I don't know. I hadn't started research until after my great Aunts (Hartsuffs) had passed away.

The original name was Herzog, then Hartsough, then Hartsuff. Of course various misspellings have occurred in the census records. Very frustrating research at first.

Hopefully someone else will have an answer for you.

Good luck! Janice Brewer

I tracted my sir name (Bannister) to Plymouth, Massachusetts in 1633. I don't remember it all but they stayed in Bristol County and went north to Salem, Ma, then Maine, then Canada, then around Worcester County, Massachusetts, around 1900. My father was born in 1901.
Rhode Island's John Bannister, two n's, was a sailing captain. Probably owned a shipping company.
