(I70)
 
70714 It is obvious from several sources that Mercy Stedman was descended from the Rhode Island Stedman family but it is not entirely clear how. Her grandson in a 1937 letter claimed that she was a niece of Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry. Examination of that family does not show how that would be possible unless she was illegitimate. Two of the possible connections would make her a second cousin to Perry. LDS records suggest that she was somehow linked to Oliver Stedman of Lenox, Massachusetts. Based on limited census data I am leaning now to believing that she was a daughter of Benjamin Stedman and his wife (and cousin) Susannah Stedman.

Family records indicate that Mercy died in 1851; however, exhaustive searches for her in the 1850 census have not been successful and she was not living with Luke and her children at the time. Family legend is that Luke had brought her back to New York for "medical" help at the Saratoga Springs. Consequently, finding clues to her birth are mostly indirect.

The only census reading that we know has to be Mercy is the 1830 census of Portage County, Ohio. She is listed as age 30-40 which places her birth before 1800. Luke Hall's wife in the 1820 Portage census is listed as age 16-26. I am not convinced this is Mercy. Luke had children in New York before coming to Ohio. I have yet to see a viable explanation of how he might have met any Stedman daughter in Smyrna, New York. I suspect that Luke's first wife died and Mercy married Luke in Portage or Geagua county in the early 1820s.

As to where she was born, I have only found two children in the 1880 and 1900 census. Nelson says that his mother was born in New York in both census and Diantha says that her mother was born in Massachusetts. Nelson also said his father was born in NY, and Diantha says Connecticut. It would seem that Diantha seems to have had more knowledge of family history than Nelson. My experience is that, as a general rule, I tend to believe daughters more than sons. So it is likely that Mercy was born in Massachusetts and not New York or Rhode Island.

Here is some discussion on each of the possibilities:

1/ Daughter of Oliver and Elizabeth.

LDS records align Mercy with the family of Oliver Stedman, son of William Stedman, and his wife Elizabeth with some connection to Commodore Perry's family. I have been ambivalent about Mercy being a daughter of Oliver and Elizabeth. Because there has been a strong family belief I have tried to look for how it might be possible.

One serious issue is that we do not know the maiden name of Elizabeth. Some data suggests that she might be descended from Governor Ward of Rhode Island. It is indeed strange that so little seems to be known about her.

She and Oliver married in the late 1790s in Rhode Island and were enumerated in the 1800 census in South Kingstown with a daughter under 10. Records of Oliver's family are scarce. Based on the census, we know that he had a large number of daughters - many of whom are poorly documented, if at all. Some records suggest that this first daughter was named Abigail; however, I am becoming convinced that earlier researchers are confusing this daughter with Oliver's sister Abigail. Currently, I cannot identify who this first daughter was.

However, she would have been born in Rhode Island and there is no evidence that Mercy was born in Rhode Island.

2/ Daughter of Joseph Stedman and Martha Stedman

Joseph and Benjamin Stedman, sons of Samuel Stedman of South Kingstown and Granville West Society (Tolland) and Sarah Hull, married cousins - Martha and Susannah Stedman, daughters of Thomas McCoon Stedman and Mary Perry.

Samuel Stedman moved his family to Granville West Society, Massachusetts before the Revolution. His brother Thomas  joined him there sometime after 1790.

Joseph Stedman married Martha sometime before 1790 as they were enumerated in Granville in 1790 census. Census records for Joseph exist for each year and in 1800 show 2 boys under 10 and one girl. The girl is Mary/Polly who married Alpheus Baldwin and one of the boys is Joseph Dennis who married Matilda Worden. The second son is not identified; however, he does not appear in the 1810 census.

Joseph removed to Portage county, Ohio sometime between 1810 and 1820. I believe there are tax records that indicate he was there as early as 1817. It should be noted that in the 1850 census, his son Watson, born about 1811, was listed as born somewhere in Connecticut. There is no census indication that Joseph could have had a daughter born in late 1790s. This does not rule it out, but makes it quite unlikely.

2/ Daughter of Benjamin Stedman and Susannah Stedman

Benjamin and Susanna are recorded to have married in Granville in 1795. An 1800 Census record for Benjamin is not located; he might have been recorded with her father Thomas Stedman in 1800 in Granville. By 1810, he is listed with two daughters under 10 who have not been identified; I assume that one might be Mercy. The daughters were reported in 1820 census in Tolland as ages 16-26.

He is next reported in Portage county in 1828 where he was buried.

His sons Edward Perry Stedman and Isaac Newton Stedman are married and living in Portage county in 1830 census. Isaac was recorded as marrying in 1826 in Geauga County.

Consequently, I am now leaning towards Benjamin as the father of Mercy.

4/ Wives of Luke Hall

I am leaning to thinking that Luke Hall may have married someone else in New York before coming to Portage County.

Clearly, the 1820 census shows him with 3 children in Portage county. I do not know how long before 1820 he came to Ohio. If Mercy were a daughter of any of the above families, there has to be a question of how she and Luke might meet in Smyrna. Since we have not developed any family linkage, we can easily assume the existance of a previous wife. And that, after Benjamin and his family arrived in Portage county, Mercy met Luke as a young widower needing a wife to take care of his children. Mercy Diadama Stedman who was born in the mid 1820s is likely a daughter of Mercy. However, Caroline and John could have been children of either Mercy or the presumed first wife.

70715 It is possible that this is the Abraham Jones who *might* have married second, Waitstill Lee of Bridgewater on May 28, 1777, however this has not been proven. Jones, Abraham (I4134)
 
70716 It seems strange to me that both Joseph and his wife Persis have the same birthday.  The information I received came from a Gene Carpenter, a distant relative in the Carpenter line.  He may have made a mistake in his transposition of this
information and, in fact, all of the information that he wrote for Persis may well be for Joseph, her husband (i.e. birth and death).  I will need to look into this further:  Joseph S. Hall, Jr.

Joseph Carpenter and his wife, Persis Rawson, removed from Providence, Rhode Island to Uxbridge, Massachusetts in 1772.

The epitaph on Joseph Carpenter's gravestone reads:  "Farewell my friends and childen dear, I've left this world of pain, May virtue be your preactice here, Til we do meet again."

70748 Jane Kenyon, 47, A Poet Laureate
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Jane Kenyon, New Hampshire's poet laureate, died on Saturday at her home in Wilmot. She was 47.

The cause was leukemia, said her husband, the poet Donald Hall.

For 20 years Ms. Kenyon lived and worked in the farmhouse she shared with her husband, who had been her poetry teacher at the University of Michigan.

Ms. Kenyon wrote of domesticity and the rhythms of rural life. She was an inward-looking poet of intense emotion, probing her own manic-depressive suffering and the suffering of others, including that of her husband, whose cancer was diagnosed six years ago.

Her published works include "The Boat of Quiet Hours" (1987) and "Let Evening Come" (1991). In a review of "The Boat of Quiet Hours" in The New York Times, Carol Muske wrote: "These poems surprise beauty at every turn and capture truth at its familiar New England slant." A portion of "Let Evening Come" was set to music by William Bolcom as a memorial to the soprano Tatiana Troyanos, who died in 1993.

Ms. Kenyon's poems also appeared in The New Yorker, Atlantic, Poetry and many other publications. A new collection is to be published in the fall.

In addition to her husband, she is survived by a brother, Reuel; a stepdaughter, Philippa Smith of Concord, N.H.; a stepson, Andrew Hall, of Belmont, Mass., and five stepgrandchildren.
