Notes for EDMOND JEAN(DE LA TACQUE) GUSTINE:

from Hazel Kendall's unpublished manuscript:

       "Gustine/Guston/Gustin from...west coast Isle of Jersey in village of Le Tacq, St. Ouen Parish now where Edmund Jean Oct. 1597-Nov. 12, 1674 died; wife Esther died June 25, 1672, daughter of Jean Le Rossignal.

       "Compendium-Gustine 1928- Courson Weaver: 'of great antiquity on the Island; they were seaman.' 

       "Gustine name from St. Augustine, Sant-O-gustin, north men on Jersey Island off coast of France, a Channel Island, converted to followers of St. Augustine and adopted the name as his followers.

       "Rollo, Rolf, or Rou, 860-932, a Viking leader known as Hrulf the Northman, conquered Paris. In 933 his son Rodolph of Brittany (Britayne), settled by Northmen, governed the Channel Islands of Jersey and made them over to William of Normandy, his brother or uncle. In 1515 Brittany was absorbed into the Kingdom of France after many wars to sustain their independence. The Gustines were northmen on Jersey. They believed in prophecies, fabled persons, tales, enchantments, a fairy world, and fictitious songs of the troubadours.  References: 1891 Encyclopedia Britannic, Vol. 21 and Vol. 9"

Notes for AUGUSTINE LEROSSIGNOL JEAN/JOHN:

information on Gustin and related families from Gustin researcher Walter Nieber: http://familytreeemaker.genealogy.com/users/n/i/e/Walter-I-Nieber/gene5-0006.html; as well as Savage's Genealogical Dictionary of First settlers of New England," vol. 1, Boston, Genealogical Publishing Co., Baltimore, 1860-1862, p. 264; Hazel Kendall's research, etc.;

from http://otc.isu.edu/~cady/genealogy--
from the notes of M.E. Bushnell, a great-granddaughter of Amos Gustin:
       "... he [John/Jean] was named after his mother's brother and came to America in 1674 or 75. Coming to America he call himself John Gustine and used Gustin as an abbreviation. He signed his will Augustine. He was a sergeant in Capt. Turner's Co. during the King Phillip's war (Indian war of 1676) He also served under Capt. Beers. He considered himself a sailor and received for his war service land in Maine but after moving there the Indians destroyed everything but one chair."

from "Smith and Deans' Journal":
       'The character of the inhabitants of the middle period was of a superior order. There was among them Augustine Jean the ancestor of the Gustins living here...'

from"Wiltis's History of Portland, Me.":
       'Augustine Jean, a native of the Island of Jersey, afterwards transferred to John Augustine and modified to John Gustin.'

from an unpublished genealogy paper:
       "...came to America as a Capt. in the merchant service in the spring of 1675. Served in the King Phillip's war and received in 1678 a grant of land at Falmouth (now Portland) Maine. He married 10 Jan. 1678 Elizabeth, daughter of John Browne of Watertown and granddaughter of Thomas Makepeace of Boston. She was born March 26, 1657. His name was changed by the early scribers to John Augustine and eventually to John Gustin. He died at Falmouth July 3 1719 the year of his return to that place from Linn, Mass."

author of the Cady genealogy site states, "I have a paper regarding the King Phillip's War and it shows that on Feb. 29, 1675-76 that he received pay for services. If this is true, he must have come to America before 1675 or went into the army immediately on arrival."

from "Ancestry of John S. Gustin":
       'There is a detailed account of the experiences he had in the King Phillip's War, also told of how badly the people of Marlboro treated the Indians. After the war he was granted land in Falmouth and bought more in Maine. Another passage said that after his marriage he moved to Falmouth and in the destruction of the town in 1680 by the French and Indians he moved to Lynn [MA]. Later he moved back to Falmouth and dated his will there in 1719. The exact date of his death is not known.'

from Savage's "Genealogical Dictionary of the First Settlers of New England":
       'Augustine John had come from the Isle of Jersey and had served in the company of Turner in the latter part of the King Phillip's War. By deed on our record sold to John Brock of the same place all the goods, chattel and house left to him by his father and mother. He married 19 Jan. 1678, Elizabeth daughter of John Brown of Watertown as Bond pg. 145 tells. In 1680 he took a grant of land at Falmouth from President Danforth and bought more but when they were destroyed by Indians he returned to Lynn.'

from "Directory of the Ancestral Heads of New England Families 1620-1700":
       'Huguenot ancestry--Edmund de la Tacq of St. Owen Isle of Jersey, England progenitor of the family. Augustine Jean Le Rossignol, son of the above of St. Owens born in 1647 changed his name to the present spelling. The name gradually changed to Guston then Gustin and the scriveners turned it into Augustine. John came from the Isle of Jersey, England, in 1677, took a grant of land at Falmouth, now Portland, Maine 1680. He moved to Lynn in 1690 but returned to Falmouth in 1719.'

from Susan McComb's "The Ancestry of John Gustin,":
       'John Gustin was in Marlboro, Mass. during the King Philip's War and served under Captain Beers who was killed in a battle. He served under Captain Turner. Captain Turner was killed by the Indians at the battle of Falls Fight. John Gustin received land at Falmouth for his war service and purchased land in Maine. He married in 1678. After his marriage in 1678 he moved to Falmouth but the Indians destroyed the town and he moved to Lynn. He moved back to Falmouth after the war and dated his will 1719.'
 from researcher Thomas Hoot at RootsWeb.com:

     "The Jeans were Huguenot refugees and after the Edict of Nantes of 1598 and restated in 1685. Capt. Augustine Jean came to America at Reading, MA. in the spring of 1675 and served in King Phillips War 1675/6 as a sergeant in Captain Turner's company. (VIDE, SOLDIERS IN KING PHILLIP'S WAR - p 491, by Rev George M Bodge indexed Gustin {Augustin}) At the close of the war (1680) he received from President Danforth, a grant of land at Falmouth, ME. with the privilege of conducting a brick yard. John and Elizabeth settled in Falmouth and brought his in- laws with him This was the fourth lot on what was Broad street, now India street. He bought a small lot of Widow Housing on the west side of the Presumpscot river. He bought land above the falls on the Presumpscot in 1686 of Thomas Cloice and made his home there until May 16, 1690 when the Indians destroyed Falmouth. He bought more land in ME *2. On 26 May 1690 the French and Indians sacked and burned Falmouth. John and family were among the few who escaped. They fled to Lynn, MA. They returned to Falmouth in 1719. Falmouth is now Portland, ME. He was said to be a mariner part of the time and was once captain of a vessel. (Maine was a part of Massachusetts until 1820 when it became an separate State. Falmouth, now Portland ME, is about 200 miles up the coast from Watertown and less by sea, so the latter was probably the means of travel.)"

from "The Gustin Family," SLFHL, author not listed:
       'Augustine Jean was born in the village of La Tacq, Parish of St. Ouens, Isle of Jersey, 9 Jan. 1647. The tradition of the sea was in his blood and there must have been the lure of the distant horizon, a heritage of his Viking ancestors--as even before he was 28 years old tradition has it that he made more than one voyage to America on his own ship. In Nov. 1674 his father died severing the last of his home, his mother having died two years before, so the following spring 1675 he sailed to America to cast his fortune with the pioneers of the New World. He settled first in Reading, Mass. where he was known as "Mariner of the Isles of Jersey." However, events were moving too rapidly for men of his adventurous nature to stand by ideally. The King Philip's War was at its height and we find soon in Marlboro, either as a Sargeant or and acting sergeant serving under Captain Beers of Watertown. On the roads to Springfield and Hampton, Marlboro was a meeting place for the different troops. When news came of the disaster at Brookfield, Aug. 4th and 5th, a levy was made in Essex Co., for troops. Those from Salem were under Capt. Lathrop and under Capt. Beers. History says that Capt. Beers and Capt. Lathrop arrived to Brookfield on the 7th where they were joined by troops from Hartford and Springfield to which they marched. They returned to Brookfield Aug. 22 and 23rd, joined Capt. Watts at Hadley. They wanted to destroy the Hadley Indians who were at the fort outside. The 2nd of Sept. while the people and garrison at Northfield were at work they were attacked by the Indians and many people were killed, houses were burned and cattle destroyed. Ignorant of this, Capt. Beers started, Sept. 3rd from Hadley, 30 miles away for Northfield with 36 mounted men and one team of oxen to bring off the garrison and people from Northfield. He camped that night near a stream called Milecreek Brook. The next day Capt. Brooks took most of the forces on foot leaving the horses at camp under guard. He took the team with the stores of ammunition and went until he came in sight of a stream called Saw Mill Brook. The Indians lay in ambush and attacked as the soldiers crossed the stream. Augustine Jean was afterwards in Marlboro. If Augustine Jean was in the engagement he must have remained in camp or escaped. Capt. Beers and 15 others were killed. For service in the King Philip's War, 1675-76 under Capt. Beers and Capt. Turner, John Gustin received land in 1680 from Thomas Danforth, Governor, land of Falmouth, now Portland, Maine. He was granted a fourth lot with liberty in the cove for a brickyard. French and Indians raided the town of Falmouth. The Gustins and the Browns were among the ones fortunate to escape the slaughter. They settled in Lynn, Mass. and their other children were born here. They kept the title on the Falmouth property and they returned before 1720 as his will, signed by him on his deathbed, was dated 6 April 1720. His will is on IDS tape # 0924098 item 20. It shows that three of the children, Sarah, John, and Abigail were in bad grace because their father willed them 5 shillings (62 1/2 cents) each. This was enough so they could not break the will.'

 

from "New England Marriages Prior to 1700":
       'Gustin, John (1647) and Elizabeth Browne (1657) Married Jan 10, 1676/77, Salem/Lynn'

from a list of soldiers fighting under Capt. Beers in the King Phillip's War:
       'Compensation 25 Jan. 1675/76, paid 05 04 06; compensation Feb. 29 1675/76 paid 01 19 04. President Danforth gave him land in Falmouth and gave him the privilege of operating a brickyard.'  (Lot was on what is now Jerome's Meats on India Street.)

from Cotter's "Genealogical and Personal Memories, Middlesex Co., Mass." :
       'He sold his English property in 1677 and in 1680 he received a grant of land (lot was on what is now Jerome's Meats on India Street) in Falmouth from President Danforth. He bought land in Falmouth in 1690. He was driven from his home by Indians and returned in 1719. He was married part of the time and at one time was captain of a vessel. When he died he left a widow and seven children.

Guston, widow of John, Feb. 10, 1720."  The highlighted square in the middle says, "Eben. Guston."

from "The Gustin Compendium," p. 238:

       'The Gustins were the first persons to erect their log cabins in Clearcreek Township and for awhile formed a settlement among themselves with no neighbor nearer than two miles. Ohio was then an unbroken wilderness, the virgin soil was covered by trackless forests, where log cabins passed for houses, where all men worked with their hands, where all lived on pretty much the same social level where none were very rich and none very poor; such was the condition, and primeval environment, of the Gustin pioneers at Red Lion in the early years of the nineteenth century. During the intervening period Warren County, Ohio (like Sussex Co., NJ of ye olden time), has been the birthplace or cradle, so to speak, of a numerous Gustin progeny.

       'Jeremiah Gustin (1740-1823) with his sons: Benajah, Samuel, Elkanah, Jeremiah Jr., John and his sons-in law:----Campbell and John Stephenson, located and settled upon 1 1/4 sections (800) of land in Clearcreek Township. Patents covering the said tract were granted by the United State (President James Madison), as follows: January 15, 1810, to John Gustin for the North-East quarter (160 acres) of Section No. 8 of Township No. 3, in Range No.4, of the land lying between the great Miami river and the Virginia Reservations, in the Territory North-West of the Ohio and above the mouth of the Kentucky River, etc.; and on Feb. 6, 1811, to Jeremiah Gustin, for 'Section No. 9 (640 acres), of Township No. 3, in Range No. 4, of the land...

       'Warren County, Ohio was organized (from Hamilton Co.) May 1, 1803, and was first divided into four townships, the 'Gustin Section' falling into Franklin Township; but in 1817, a new township was formed, named Clearcreek, the Gustin Section falling in the latter.'

from 'Biographical Sketches' in "Beer's History of Warren Co., Ohio" 1888:

       '...Jeremiah Gustin was a resident of New Jersey, but removed to Pennsylvania and lived several years; thence, in 1798, he, with his family moved into Ohio and located in Warren County, where he entered a section of land--sec. 9, Clear Creek Township-- and here opened out right in the woods, having to cut their way through the brush and timber for a road for their wagons to the spot where they cleared and erected a log cabin, with split puncheon floor, and began in true pioneer style; they had only one neighbor, Mr. Crane, nearer than two miles distant; here Mr. Gustin lived and labored till his death, Aug. 31, 1823, aged 93 years.'

from "People and Sites of Red Lion" by local historian Bogan:

       'Jeremiah Gustin and family were natives of New Jersey and settled on a portion of land east of Red Lion in 1798. They had sliced their way through brush and timber, making a wagon road to the spot where they built their cabin. Abner Crane was their nearest neighbor, located about two miles away.

       'Jeremiah built a brick house in 1818 and lived there until his death in 1823. His son Elkanah married in Pennsylvania to Hannah Morris and traveled to Red Lion in 1800. They settled on a section of his father's land and reared 15 children, 8 sons and 7 daughters.

       'Samuel, son of Jeremiah Gustin, was born in New Jersey, but was raised mostly in Pennsylvania. The latter was his place of marriage, but in 1791 he migrated to Cincinnati. In 1798, he arranged for his father and other family members to be brought to Red Lion and located east of the locality. He fathered 13 children. Margaret, his second daughter, was said to have been the second white child born in Warren County.

       'Benajah Gustin was the son of Elkanah and Hannah Morris Gustin. He was born in Pennsylvania in 1797, and was about three years old when his family settled in the Red Lion area. As a youngster and in full life he suffered the hardships of pioneer existence. Benajah married Lydia Newport in 1820 and they were the parents of 11 children.

       'Red Lion, like many other small hamlets, never grew to any great size. About all the prosperous villages were fashioned around a body of water, but none flows within Red Lion's vicinity. ...

       'Crane [Abner] laid out the village of Westfield, now Red Lion, in 1817; it was laid out on the "west field" portion of his land.

       'The first business in Westfield was a tavern that was constructed at the northeast corner of the five-point intersection, namely, the Red Lion Tavern, as per a sign of this effect. It faced west and was a long low log house with an attic in which people could sleep. In front was a wide uncovered porch of flagstones surrounded by a row of stones set on edge. A Mr. Holly managed the tavern until 1849. Benajah Gustin then operated the tavern for a few years to pay a debt of $10,000 that ht lost in the hog market. Mr. Gustin was a member of the early New Light Church and never used liquor or tobacco.'

from Gustin researcher Hazel Kendall's handwritten, unpublished manuscript Kendall 929.2K Anderson (IN) Public Library:

       "Jeremiah... with his parents to Greene Co., PA in 1798 in flat boat to Jarret's Station at mouth of Little Miami six miles above Cincinnati in Warren Co., Ohio. In 1790 he was living in Lower Smithfield Twp., Northampton Co., PA near son Benajah, David Dilts, and Martin Groff whose sons came with Benajah's sons to Madison County, Indiana.

       "Jeremiah entered section 9 Warren County, Ohio, a leafy wilderness 1798."

quote from great-grandson James M. Gustin, Blanchester, Ohio: "My great-grandfather came here from Pennsylvania, came down on a flatboat, landed at Jarett's Station at the mouth of the Little Miami six miles above the now city of Cincinnati."

Notes for BENAJAH GUSTIN:

from Hazell Kendall's handwritten manuscript:

       "In fall of 1799 they [Benejah and Eleanor] moved from Meadow Run near Old Fort Redstone, PA to Columbia, Hamilton Co., Ohio and later to Red Lion, Ohio. In 1830 they lived near Lockport, Warren Co., Ohio. In 1790 they lived near Benajah Munday, Washington Co., PA, probably a relative."

from http://otc.isu.edu/~cady/genealogy.html:
       "From 'The Official Roster of the Soldiers of the American Revolution Buried in the State of Ohio'--Gustin, Benejah (Warren Co.) Pension roll 1832, Warren Co. Ohio for service Private 1779-82 Captain Jacob Steele, Emanuel Blanford and James Bunnell, Sussex Co. N.J. Born 1766, Sussix. M.J. Married Eleanor Bunton 1789 Died 1835 in Warren Co., Ohio.

     "Listed in DAR Patriot Index - Centennial Edition, p. 1256. Wife Eleanor Bunton.  Source = William Peter Gustin, 924 Sunset Dr., Englewood, OH 45322.

     "Benajah, son of Jeramiah and Bethany and his wife Eleanor Burton are buried in Kirby Cemetery.

     "Benajah died of asiatic cholera or cholera asphysa.

     "In 1797 Benajah and his wife Eleanor moved from Sussex Co. NJ and settled in Washington Co. PA on Meadow Run near old Fort Redstone where he built, owned and operated a small grist and saw mill. Two of three children were born there.

     "In the fall of 1799 the Gustins removed from Washington CO. PA settling next at Garrett's Station (a log stockade) in Hamilton County, OH.

     "At or near the site of what is now know as Columbia, since 1873 within the corporate limits of Cincinnati's first ward.

     "By reason of high waters each spring, with attendant overflows, the Gustins removed from this locality in 1801, to escape the chills and fever incident to flooded lands.

    "Settled permanently on lands adjoining the site of the present village of Red Lion in Clearcreek TPS, Warren County, OH.

     "The Gustins were the first persons to erect their log cabins in Clearcreek TPS and for awhile formed a settlement among themselves with no neighbor nearer than two miles.

     "Ohio was then an unbroken wilderness, the virgin soil was covered by trackless forests, where log cabins passed for houses, where all men worked with their hands, where all lived pretty much the same social level, where none were very rich and none very poor: such was the condition, and primeval environment, of the Gustin pioneers at Red Lion in the early years of the nineteenth century.

     "It was know by family tradition that he Benajah, was a soldier in the latter part of the Revolutionary War; 1779-1782 that, during a portion of his military service that period (being in the 17th year of his age, or less), he was engaged in patrolling up and down that part of the Delaware river which forms the western boundary of Sussex County, NJ; that, by reason of services rendered in the patriot cause during the said war, he was granted a pension by the United States; and that his widow, Eleanor, eceived a regular pension from the U.S. for a number of years preceding her death (1853), in recognition of her husband's service.

     "He also served as a sub for his father who lived in Sussex Co. NJ."

Notes for MARY GUSTIN:

Mary married Francis Dilts, Jr., and died shortly after; there were no children. Her gravestone is in the Turtlecreek (Kirby) Cemetery, Lebanon, Ohio, in Gustin section.

from "People and Sites of Red Lion" by local historian Bogan:

       'Cholera, an unknown disease at the time, broke out in the community in 1835 with Samuel Gustin as the first fatality. Cause of the disease was presumably to have come from victims eating fish from the Miami Canal near Franklin. Apparently the water supply in the canal diminished and the fish soon perished. Folks from miles around took them home and used them for food. The doctors were unable to do much for the victims during this time.'

Burial: Otterbein Cemetery, Chesterfield, IN

Fact 1: mid-wife to area as in "The Pioneers of Madison & Hancock Countues," by S. Harden;

Fact 2: 1st marriage was to a Taffee;

Notes for WILLIAM DILTS:

The first white settler in Monroe Twp., Delaware Co., IN. 1 1/2 mile NE of Daleville. He came with Thomas Gustin.

William Dilts (1793 - 1874), Richard was older brother. William married Jane Gustin 1815 in Warren Co., OH. William & Jane were pioneers in Chesterfield,

Madison Co., IN. (Richard and Mary probably moved to area because Dilts and Gustin families already here. Jane Howe, Mary's mother, may have come with them at this time, about 1840.)

William and Jane built a brick hotel/house 1833, first brick hotel/inn in Madison County; new owners refurbished it as a B & B.

info on Dilts family from: "The Pioneers of Madison and Hancock Counties," by Harden; also "History of Madison County," pub. by Kingman, 1880;

from Anderson, IN, newspaper series 'Man About Town,' "Anderson Daily Bulletin," Wednesday, November 21, 1956:

       "Time has nearly ended the monument erected in memory of the first white pioneer settler of what is now Union Township. In fact he may have been the first white man to settle in Madison County, tradition to the contrary, and he was the first to live out his life here.

       "William Dilts lived to see the county change from a place where Indians yet were present to a place where thousands of people lived, from a time of uncertain dim trails to the age of the railroad. And he, himself, became a big owner of the lands and head of a family which now numbers hundreds in this area alone.

       "He died February 11, 1874, and was buried in the old Otterbein Cemetery just east of the county farm. He was buried as was the due of a man of means and his monument was tall. but in only the last few years vandals upset the upper portion of his stone, and now young trees are destroying the base, hereby shown, on which are inscribed the name of William Dilts that of his wife, Jane (Gustin) Dilts.

       "William was born in Lancaster County, PA, May 13, 1793, the son of Francis Jr., [error=not junior] and Marguerite Dilts. The name then was spelled with a "z" as Diltz. The family probably was numbered among the refugees from the Rhine Valley. He moved with his parents to Warren County, Ohio, in the early 1800s. In Ohio he married Jane Gustin. She was born in September 1791, in New Jersey and died in Union Township April 4, 1876. Time has almost wiped her name off the stone.

      "William Dilts is not listed in the Ohio records for 1820, and it may have been that he was in Union Township in 1819 or most certainly, the next year. Madison County was not formed as early as 1820, so he is not in the state census for year. He cleared land and established a home on Mill Creek where Chesterfield is now...

        "Jane Gustin whose daughter married a Makepeace, goes back in her ancestry to Lawrence Makepeace, purchaser of Sulgrave Manor from his relative Lawrence Washington, who goes back in family ties to about 1,000 A.D. She is directly related to Sir William de Hertburn, Norman knight, who became Sir William de Wesyngton, ancestor of the Washington family.

      "...About 1835, maybe somewhat earlier, he built the famous brick inn, now on the south side of Ind. 32, a short distance east of Chesterfield. This was the first brick structure in the township and the finest inn in the county. At that time it was at the forks of the road, one leading east and another since closed, to the southeast. The house yet stands, but Dilts' stone is nearly lost."

Samuel B. and his wife lived on the old Gustin place at Red Lion until 1845, at which time they were the parents of six children... The Gustin family came to Madison County, Indiana, and settled on the county line, where Samuel B. cleared up a farm of one hundred acres from a tract he had bought in the wild woods and on which he resided until his death March 31, 1874, at the age of seventy-six; his wife died a few years previously at the age of sixty-eight.

For one year after marriage Mr. Gustin and wife lived on his father's land and then for a year on her father's. In 1850 he entered land in the Indian Reservation in Madison County, ten miles northwest of Alexandria, erected a log cabin in the woods among the howling wolves and laid in provisions sufficient to last him a year. He cleared up eight acres of the place and set out fruit trees; then he sold the place for six hundred dollars and for six hundred and fifty bought the farm of one hundred and sixty acres on which he now lives... ...the Gustin family are among the foremost in developing from the forest the fruitful farm that now adorns and enriches the country and which have tended to make the town and township what they are today...'

Gustine/Guston/Gustin from "...west coast Isle of Jersey in village of Le Tacq, St. Ouen Parish now where Edmund Jean Oct. 1597-Nov. 12, 1674 died; wife Esther died June 25, 1672, daughter of Jean Le Rossignal. (Compendium-Gustine 1928- Courson Weaver: 'of great antiquity on the Island; they were seaman.'

"Gustine name from St. Augustine, Sant-O-gustin, north men on Jersey Island off coast of France, a Channel Island, converted to followers of St. Augustine and adopted the name as his followers.

"Rollo, Rolf, or Rou, 860-932, a Viking leader known as Hrulf the Northman, conquered Paris. In 933 his son Rodolph of Brittany (Britayne), settled by Northmen, governed the Channel Islands of Jersey and made them over to William of Normandy, his brother or uncle. In 1515 Brittany was absorbed into the Kingdom of France after many wars to sustain their independence. The Gustines were northmen on Jersey. They believed in prophecies, fabled persons, tales, enchantments, a fairy world, and fictitious songs of the troubadours.
