My Hallstead's came from Factoryville. Though I have no Henry's in my direct family line, if you don't find anyone to take the pictures, I can
take them and continue the search for the descendants.

Tamer Halstead

EddieGray138 — 2012-04-19 03:53:01Z

trying to locate more info on a Tamer Halstead. We have been showing her as a Koen that married a Halstead and then married our ancestor Deliverance Gray. However, we can't find any record showing there was a Tamer Koen. Even cked out Koen and Kin book which does show a Deliverance Gray being named in will of Rueben Koen. This is where some speculate that this is A male Deliverance married to a Koen girl but there is never mention of a Koen named Tamer BUT there is a girl listed as a dtr of one of the Koens whose name was Deliverance. So, I am beginning to think maybe our Tamer Halstead wasn't a Koen to begin with. So, does anyone know of a Tamer Halstead that would have been aged right to marry a Deliverance Gray in Tn in 1791-have seen copy of the marriage bond. any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Amos Halstead's (b. 1770, VA.) Father???

mjhal10 — 2012-04-17 20:45:15Z

I have been able to "prove" my lineage back to Amos, but cannot "prove" who his father was.

I am pretty sure that it's James Halstead (b. 1726, NY.), but I cannot find definitive proof.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Bonus points if we can back further from James (if this is actually the case).

Thanks in advance.

William Halstead and Jacob Halstead Trumbull Co., OHio

stephengunn46 — 2012-04-04 17:21:25Z

I am trying to find info about William Halstead he is listed in the Johnston Twp Trumbull Co., Ohio tax records of 1834. First is Jacob, Jacob Jr., David, Samuel, William and Charles. William surely is a son of Jacob. He named his son Judson Joshua Canfield Halstead born 1836 in Trumbull Co., Ohio this is according to a Navy Pension record. Jacob has a son listed in the 1790 census record in New York and is listed on the same page as Peter Jersey so I assume that the son belongs to Annie Jersey. This son also appears in the 1800 census. Does anyone know where the bible record that was in the Jacob Halstead bible that was returned to Isaac in the early 1900's from the pension office in DC? We believe that William must have died after 1841 because we know of 3 children Judson, Amanda and Laura all appear in Perry County Indiana after 1850 AND 1860. Any help would be greatly appreciated. William surely is a son of Jacob he gave his son the same name at Jacob's son Judson!

Eminel Potter Halstead, born August 13, 1833, died ca 1909, married Emilie M.______? Is this your man?
He served as a Captain in the Civil war for the Union from 1861-1865. Then he was employed with the Pension Department in Washington D. C.
Eminel P Halstead was my g.grandfather's brother,and I have some letters E. P. wrote to my g.grandfather throughout the
Civil War, and a letter penned in 1892 summarizing his military career. I find no reference to a wife, so I may not be able to shed light on the years you are hunting. W.

Re: E P Halstead, born c1834 NY

bvelke — 2011-08-17 03:10:52Z

Have you checked his pension file? He was "slightly wounded" at Antietam (see http://www.civilwarhome.com/doubledayantietam.htm).

It looks like he later married "Mary B." and filed for an invalid pension from D.C. on 3 July 1890 and Mary filed for a widow's pension from D.C. in the 1920s. (Maybe you can read the writing better than I can). The pension index card (attached) has the pension application and certificate numbers. Drawing a pension for so long, it is sure to be a thick file with lots of info.

Re: E P Halstead, born c1834 NY

rbissell_cole — 2011-08-16 23:20:45Z

Bvelke,

Yes, he is the one I seek. I find patents in his name as well as some with he and his father-in-law, Richard C. Ball. (most dealing with planers and such) However, I lose track of he and his wife and daughter in Washington D.C. in the 1880's. Do you know what became of this family? Annie is the much older sister (and I believe birth-mother)of my gg grandmother, Mabel Ball.
Warmest regards, Renee

Re: E P Halstead, born c1834 NY

I'm guessing that you're speaking of Captain Eminel P. Halstead, Assistant Adjutant General to Major General Abner Doubleday (of baseball fame). Both were at Gettysburg and the former is mentioned in the Official Report of the latter.

Hello,She was born 4/27/1790/91 and suppose to have passed 1844 at Johnston,Trumbull Co.Ohio. There is no monument for her by her husband Philetus, so wondered if when she became ill she returned to her mother in Conn. If indeed that is where she came from? She had musical talent.

At this time, this family totally lived in NJ. Doesn't seem to be a connection.

Florence Halstead and unknown Beck

PatandSueJones — 2011-01-02 04:08:32Z

Florence Halstead married a gentleman with a last name Beck and had two children, Florence and Grace. Grace Beck married a Ray Moore and had 2 children, Colleen and Doris. Florence was my great grandmother's sister. Her name was Estelle Halstead. They both lived in Jersey City from @1860 - 1910. Trying to find relatives from the Halstead branch, including the Becks, Peetz' and Moores, who may have some information about the Halsteads. Estelle married Joseph Henry Jones. Her parents were Isaac Halstead and Rachel Kitson Halstead. They also had other children, including Charles Halstead. Please help if you can!

Re: Josiah Halstead

AllanahP — 2010-12-27 05:36:02Z

Hi Dwight,

The Josiah Halstead I am looking for was married to Mary Foster. He was born in 1812 as far as we know from our records. After Josiah Died Mary remarried a man called Jamieson.

My great grandfather (Josiah's son) was George Washington Halstead and married to emily mary hill (Daughter of John Hill and emily Douglas Douthat).

We have traced Josiah to Fiji & the Sunday islands but have been unable to trace his lineage in the US from Madison County or find out how he came to be on the Sunday Islands.

Any assistance you can provide would be invaluable to me as my Dad who was previously tracing this passed away last year and I have taken over trying to trace this side of our family in the US.

danicros43 — 2010-12-14 20:45:07Z

Tracey,
Being fairly new at this I have not spent near the time on my research that you have on yours about the Halsteads.

I read your post and am not sure if you're still out there since the last one that I have seen is dated January of this year.

Cora Halstead, one of Cornelius twin sisters, is my paternal great-grandmother. She married Rev Olla L Cross. When researching her background I to ran into the same issue with Samuel Halstead. So started through these posts and come across your note below from 2005.

Anyway, my question is how did Rosalie solve and validate your brick wall with Samuel and his parents etc and how did you solve the issue that Samuel's first name was really John? And lastly, did you hear from anyone about the validity of the information in the book 'The Story of the Halsteads of the United States?' Would it be worth me procuring a copy of it?

Thanks so much in advance for your assistance. I am willing to share any information that I have even tho it may not be anything that you don't already have.

It took me a while to stumble on these posts as well.
I am the granddaughter of Rosalie Halstead Brown, being the eldest daughter of her eldest son, Carl Brown. Grandma Rosie had two sons and four daughters, and all but one of them are deceased. Her youngest daughter lives in Ripon WI and I see her quite often. The second youngest daughter, my Aunt Mary Brown Briese, who had no children and died a few years ago, left behind the Halstead and Brown family histories research she had done in the 1980's. My cousin was given most of the Brown history and I was given most of the Halstead research, which is sadly out of date. Many of the names you mentioned sound very familiar, so I may very well be able to help you with some of your missing pieces. But, I'm pretty sure the info I have does not go back 15 generations, so you can help fill in lots, I think. I certainly hope you still check these message boards and that I will hear from you soon. Thanks.

For those searching for early census records of James
Outlaw, father-in-law of Seaborn Konce Halstead, be sure
to look at these two records.

Due to transcriptions, search ancestry for

1810 Lexington Co., SC. search for James Ausland.
1830 Wilkinson Co., Ga. search for James Cullard.

Take a look at the original hand census and make your
own judgements, but both look like James Outlaw to me.

Ellen Penelope "Nellie" Halstead Kent Rogers death date

I have seen many trees that list the Date of Death of
Ellen Penelope "Nellie" Halstead (b1849), wife of
Bedford Kent and Wiley Rogers, as 5 Aug 1912.

Does anyone know the source of this date?

I know my Grandmother Myrtle Rogers, daughter of Nellie,

she was buried in Dothan, but I have no further info.
I am trying to determine what cemetery she is buried in,
and I am hoping the source of the exact death date may

Re: Halstead in Ohio or Michigan

pswitzertatum — 2010-07-05 02:39:51Z

I'm wondering if your George W. Halstead was a son of Samuel Halstead and Lois Winters Halstead? He would have had a brother named Jacob Halstead who came to Oregon by wagon train with Andrew H. Dray in 1852. Jacob married Britannia Malone in Lane County, Oregon in Dec. of 1852; he had a Donation Land Claim in Lane Co. She died in 1860 and is buried in McMinnville Oregon; I wonder if the "Dyton" referred to in Oregon is Dayton, Oregon, near McMinnville? I do not know a lot about George W. Halstead, other than that there is one buried in Tacoma, WA in the Halstead plot at Oakwood Hill Cemetery. Jacob is there; Jacob's second wife, Jane Constable Halstead; the mother Lois Winters Halstead, etc. Lois's husband Samuel Halstead died in Henry or Stark Co., IL as I understand it. My husband descends from Jacob's sister Phoebe Halstead Drake.

Halsteads of Bolton, Lancashire

carolmcolvin — 2010-04-10 19:03:58Z

I am researching the Halstead family of Bolton, Lancashire county, England. My ancestor is Mary Halstead, born 1809, who married William Jackson in 1834. In 1841 there are a few other Halstead and related families in Bolton: James and Martha, who were living with James' father, David Halstead; William and Ann and family, who look to be of the same generation as David, who was born 1777; Samuel and Mary (Halstead) Pearce and family; and Joseph and Sarah (Monks) Halstead and family. After about 1845-1850 I can't find most of these families. The Halsteads seem to have left. I find a lot of Halsteads in surrounding areas, but they seem to disappear from Bolton. Does anyone have any information about where the Halsteads came from before Bolton and possibly where they went?

Thank you!
