The Britton Ancestors of Carrie W. Tuttle

Carrie Wesley Tuttle's mother was Mary Jane Britton.  Mary Jane's parents were William Britton and Elizabeth Black.  Mary Jane's siblings were Thomas, Isabella, and William John.

 Our first documentation of William Britton/Brittain is a St. John Alms House1 record in St. John, New Brunswick, Canada2 showing "William Brittain, age 45, P[rotestant] from Fermanagh [County in Northern Ireland]."  He was "destitute" and suffering from "Dysuria."  A second record3 shows him age 45, P[rotestant], destitute, and having two children [although he had four children at the time, three of which were currently residing in the alms house, (Isabella, Mary Jane, and William John)].  A third record4 shows him, P[rotestant], from Fermanagh:  he had died of dysentery5 on March 28, 1849 at age 46.6  This places his birth at 1803. His age at death might have been recorded in error.  The record notes, "Body Taken Away For Burial."  His burial place is unknown at the present time.  St. John cemetery lists do not seem to have his name.

 William Brittain's wife Elizabeth was apparently never in the alms house.  The St. John census of 1851 [two years after the emigration of Elizabeth Brittain], does list a Margaret Brittain,7 maiden name "Simpson," age 25, who arrived at St. John in 1845, Pres[byterian], located in Westfield, a town near St. John.  Ten years later, 1861, Margaret Brittain,7 maiden name not given, age 37, Pres[byterian] lived in Westfield.  Although the Margaret Brittain listed in these two census entries could be related to William Brittain/Britton, they are not "Elizabeth" Brittain who had long since departed from New Brunswick. 

William and Elizabeth had four children, Thomas, Isabella, Mary Jane and William John (listed as William M. in the alms house records).  Three of these children (Isabella, Mary Jane, and William M.) were listed as "destitute" when they lived in the alms house.  Thomas apparently lived "in town" with his mother.  The childrens' records indicate their father lived in the alms house, and their mother lived "in town."  When their father died, the records indicated "Father Dead - Mother In Town - Taken Away By Their Mother."  Isabella (age 6) and Mary Jane (age 4) were discharged from the alms house on Dec 17, 1848 in "Healthy" condition.  Mary Jane was apparently readmitted to the home, because records show that shortly after their father's death, Mary Jane (age 5) and her brother William M. (age 3) were discharged June 19, 1849 in "Healthy" condition.  Note again that Thomas is not listed in alms house records. According to the 1900 census, Thomas immigrated to the United States in 1846, and had lived in the U.S. for 54 years.  If that is true he immigrated when he was 8 years old, and 3 or more years before his siblings came to Center Moriches, NY.  If so, he would have been staying with some family in that area.

Ruby Brown Hull recounts the following events that took place after the death of Elizabeth's husband William:

"Elizabeth Black Britton, a young widow, emigrated to Center Moriches, L.I., NY leaving her four children with friends or relatives.  When she became established as a housekeeper she sent for the children.  The children were put on a ship in charge of the captain, and sailed from St. John with a stop at Boston.  The captain got a hotel room for the children expecting them to stay there until the ship left.  However, the children left their belongings at the hotel, went for a walk and never found their way back [to the hotel].  When they sailed from Boston bound for Center Moriches they had nothing except the clothes they were wearing."

This family appears to have completely eluded the 1850 federal census.  It is possible the children were en route at the time, but if Elizabeth had sent for the children, and was a housekeeper in Center Moriches awaiting their arrival, she should have appeared in the census.

This voyage most likely took place during the 10 month period between June 19, 1849, (when Mary Jane and William were discharged from the alms house), and April 19, 1850, (the supposed date of Elizabeth's second marriage to William Baker of Center Moriches).  [This determination is at odds with the immigration year, 1846, specified by Thomas in the 1900 census].  At the time of the 1860 census none of the Britton children were living with their mother and step-father.  By 1860 their ages would have been:

Thomas            21
Isabella            19
Mary Jane        15
William John     14

On April 19, 1850 Elizabeth married William Baker, an immigrant from England.  William Baker and Elizabeth resided in Center Moriches, Suffolk County, Brookhaven Town, NY and began having children shortly after their marriage:

Sarah Marie Baker                   b. 1852, d. 1925
George Henry Baker                b. 1854
Kate Elizabeth Baker                b. 1856
Stella Baker                             b. 1860, d. 1923 (twin)
William "Willis" Baker                b. 1860 (twin – Eventually moved to Redondo Beach, CA per. Ruby Brown, although still in Center Moriches, NY as of 1900 census)


[1] In 1843 a new alms house was erected in Simonds to care for the poor in Saint John County. These records contain financial information on the operation of the Alms House and the registers list the name, religion, place of birth, parish of residence, state & condition, date of discharge, time in house, and remarks.  MS2700 is the Graeme Somerville Collection of records.  The category MS2a2 refers to the Alms House Admission Registers for the period 1847 to 1852.

[5] Family records of Lila and Ruby Brown indicate he worked in a shipyard at St. John where he contracted smallpox from a voyager and died when he was in his early thirties.  This disagrees with the St. John Alms House record which says he was 46 years of age at the time of his death.

[6] Note:  History of Eastport, L. I., N. Y., 1775-1975 and Eastport Gospel Church 1822-1975 by LeRoy Wilcox, taking information supplied by Lila and Ruby Brown, says "died St. Johns, Canada – 35 yrs. Old."

The databases were compiled as part of his ongoing research into Irish immigration patterns in New Brunswick. In both census indices, no reference is given for data on Irish point of origin. This information came from a variety of sources eg. Land Petitions, census records, passenger lists, cemetery listings, church records.  The database on passenger lists was compiled from shipping registers, 1847-1867 of the J & J Cooke Co. of Derry, Northern Ireland.  The sub-category MS1 is an Index to Irish Immigrants in the New Brunswick Census of 1851.   MS2 is the census of 1861.

[roll 865, book 1, p923].  The Long Island Genealogy Surname Database shows an Isabella Britton Married to William Reeves, with one child, Nellie Sadie Reeves, b.

William John Britton:

William John has not yet been found in any Suffolk County census.  Family tradition holds he went to Chicago, IL, and had 9 children. There is a "William Britton", age 32 <1848>, a "rigger" in 1880 census of Chicago, Cook Co., IL.  We list the census information on this William J. Britton because, in spite of the discrepancies frequently found in these and in many other census records, we are fairly certain this is the correct person.

1880 census, Chicago, Cook Co., IL:  His birthplace is listed as NY [whereas our William John Britton was born in St. John, NB].  It lists both his parents born in SCO[tland].  His wife is "Sarah, age 28, b. IL, & parents b. NY.  Three children b. IL: Clara, age 6, Loretta, age 4, and Bell, age 2. 

1900 census, Chicago, Cook Co., IL:  William J. Britton, age 53, b. Feb 1847, NY, both parents b. Scotland.  Married 27 years, a stationary engineer.  His wife Sarah G, age 48, b. Aug 18?? in IL, had 11 children, 6 living. Both parents b. NY.  Five children listed:  Florida M., age 24, b. Jan 1876 in IL; Isabella, age 22, b. Nov 1877 in IL; Albert J., age 17, b. in IL; Maria, age 14, b. Mar 1886 in IL; Harry S., age 12, b. Apr 1888, in IL.
