Dr Wm Eberle Thompson [1836-194?]practiced medicine here in Bethel ,Ohio
past
his 100 th
birthday. He delivered my uncles.
His father was Dr Wm Thompson,d 1840 Bethel,Ohio. I have his 1836-38 ledger.
And the grandfather,Rev William Justice Thompson,also lived to be very aged.

Born
in [Cecil Co?] Md,he moved to NC,and on to Danville,Ky where he was Ky's 2nd

local
Methodist minister,about 1786. And finally,he moved,by 1810,to a
neighborhood
of
Maryland Methodists,at Pt Isabel,Washington TWNSP,Clermont Co,SW Ohio where
he
raised several sons,and buried 3 wives. Walraven was 1 neighboring family.

I saw,briefly,a noted George Peterson researcher,Tom Luce,Saturday at the
Bethel,
Ohio Museum. Last I knew,Tom did not know George's parents. Peterson is not
a common name on the Mullica River of SE NJ.Luce is on-line We talked of his

seeing a post of mine on that am,and of his Harpers.
20 + YEARS AGO,Dr Peter Stebbins Craig,told me New Sweden had 6 [?] Peterson

families.I suppose New Netherland had more.

1693 CENSUS SWEDES ON THE DELAWARE, pg. 121, item #135
Olle Rosse (Rawson) (Naaman's Creek, Brandywine hundred #20): Among the
soldiers arriving on the Eagle in 1654 was Olof Rase who was stationed at
Fort Trinity (New Castle) when the fort was surrendered to the Dutch in
1655. Born in Sweden, Olof or Olle was variously identified as Raesen,
Raessen, Rase, Rasson, Rausa, Raws, Rason, Roason, and Rosen in 17th
century records. Probably variants of "resen" meaning "the giant" in
Swedish. Olle Rawson was one of the six residents of Marcus Hook receiving
a Dutch patent, which was confirmed by an English patent, 28 March 1676.
In 1668, he also received authority to buy Indian land in New Jersey, but
sold his interest to Jons Gustafsson (#72) in 1675. Olle remained at
Marcus Hook, his name frequently appearing in the Upland and Chester court
records. He also had property interests in Brandywine Hundred and in 1693
his property was valued at #100 in Chester County and #20 in New Castle
County. He died after 25 July 1697 when Wooley Rawson and his son Lacy
Rawson sold 7 acres of land with a mill on Naaman;s Creek and before 26 May
1702, when a suit against widow Brita Rawson was withdrawn in the Chester
County Court. She was probably the sister of John Andersson Cock. The son
Lasse, also know as Lawrence Rawson, sold another l00 acres at Marcus Hook
on March 12, 1699/1700. Two other sons probably completed the 1693
household: Charles & John.

FYI: For additional information, please refer to pages from Records of the
Court of New Castle

THE EAGLE AND THE SHARK (Article in Swedish Colonia News Vol 2, No. 10,
Spring 2004) This article tells about the trip made by Olle Rosse and
others on the Eagle which left Gothenberg in February 1653. They arrived in
St. Eriks Bay (New Sweden) on May 18. Of the 350 passengers, 100 died in
crossing. When they reached Ft. Christina, there were only 70 settlers
left in the colony.

On June 24, 1699, Olle Rawson (deceased) along with son Lars and wife Brita
Andersdotter(Andersson) and Hans Justus (Johan Gustafsson and his wife
Maria Ollesdotter (Rawson) were assigned pews at the Holy Trinity Church at
the Marcus Hook Parish.

I am searching for the parents, and descendants, of WILLIAM C. CORNWELL.
William was born ca. 1790 (per 1850 US Census) in the "State of New York."
He
married SUSANNAH MCMANAMY in 1817 in Columbia, Lancaster County,
Pennsylvania. In the 1830s they lived in Chanceford Township, York County,
PA and in the
1850 census they were in Morgan County West Virginia. William died in 1866

in Harford County, Maryland. Children of William and Susannah were:
Elizabeth, Ira, Lydia, Promelia, William, Jeremiah, Charles, Christian (my
line, she
married Wm. SHANBARGER), Emaline, Mary and Amanda. Thank you! Ginny
