Notes:

The vital records say that this John died one month after his brother, John was born. I think this is an error in transcription. He probably died one month before his brother was born.

Notes:

John and Elizabeth lived in Truroe, Barnstable County following their marriage and having their first child, Ambrose there. They moved to Barnstable, Barnstable County, MA before their second child was born. About 1740, they left Barnstable to settle the new town of Rochester, Plymouth County. They were one of the first families of settlers in Rochester. From there they moved to Dartmouth, Bristol County, MA.

Notes:

William was in Liverpool, Nova Scotia for a time,living on Coffin Island. He joined his brothers, Isaac and Ephraim there. He came back to fight in the Rev. War for the state of Massachusetts as did his brother, Isaac. An Annable Island is name after the Annble brothers who lived there in Nova Scotia.

William married Pike Tabitha on 03 Jul 1760 in Rochester, Plymouth County, MA. Tabitha (daughter of Pike Leonard and Snow Anne) was born on 29 Jan 1737 in Truro, Barnstable County, MA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Isaac, a tailor, from Dartmouth, Bristol, County, MA was among the first to settle the town of Barrington, Nova Scotia about 1761. He was joined by Nathan Snow, a cousin. (VR/Barrington, NS) He had lot No. 49 in the town of Barrington, next to John Coffin who later became his father-in-law. This however, may have been his brother, Ephraim, who married Margaret Coffin.

Isaac was first married to Eunice Swain of Nantucket, Nantucket Co. MA. Their daughter Abigail, was born in Nantucket and a son, Ephraim, was been born in Barrington, Nova Scotia on 3 March 1765. After the death of Eunice, he married Margaret Coffin, daughter of John Coffin who was also originally from Nantucket. I am not convinced it wasn't Isaac's brother, Ephraim who married Margaret Coffin instead of Isaac.

Margaret died sometime before 1772. It is unknown if they had children together.

According to The History of Barrington Township, by Edwin Crowell, page 432/433, Isaac sold in 1785 to Richard Pinkham for 25 pounds his lot and dwelling house. His 2nd Division lot, No. 97 was laid out to him in 1784 but drawn by Richard Pinkham. As his name was not in the 1770 census, it is likely he had moved to Halifax by then. He is listed as having charged rum in Doane's Mog-book. His name also survives in Annable's Shoal, west of Blackberry Island.

Isaac is listed as living in Halifax when his marriage intention to widow, Lydia (Peckham) Delano was announced according to the vital records of Dartmouth, MA.(6 July 1772)

The below are records from Massachusetts Soldiers and Sailors in the War of the Revolution, 17 Vols. Vol. 1, p, 274:

Annabell, Isaac, Dartmouth, was a Sergeant , Capt. Luen Pope's Co., which marched April 21, 1775, in response to the alarm of April 19, 1775, to Roxbury; service; 5 days.

Annable, Isaac, Dartmouth, corporal, Capt. Daniel Egery's Co., Col. Timothy Danielson's reg't.; muster roll dated Aug. 1., 1775; enlisted May 4, 1775; service, 3 mos., 4 days; also, company return dated Roxbury, Oct. 6, 1775;also order for bounty coat or its equivalent in money, dated Camp at Roxbury, Nov. 6, 1775.

Vol. 1,p. 272
Annable, Isaac, Private, Capt. Henry Jenne's co., enlisted March 14, 1781, discharged March 18, 1781, service four days, on an alarm at Rhode Island.

Vol. 1, p. 274
Isaac Annibal was a Private in Capt. Benjamin Alton's Co. Col. John Rand's Regt.; enlisted July 9, 1780; discharged Oct. 10, 1780; service , 3 mos. 11 days, at West Point; enlistmant, 3 months; also order for wages dated Oxford, April 2, 1782; money payable to Col. Jacob Davis.

Bristol County, MA land records (62-164) show that Isaac purchased land in Dartmouth 6 Jan 1781 and sold the same land 10 Apr 1793 and the transaction was recorded 12 Sept 1793 (72-171) when he moved to Saratoga, NY. Lydia signed the deed under Isaac's signature, which would indicate that she removed with him to New York. This land was in Dartmouth, which would later become part of New Bedford. Other property was sold in December of 1780. They were still there when the 1800 census was taken but by 1803, they were in Saratoga, NY. There is some confusion as to whether this is the correct Isaac, still living in New Bedford in 1800 as you will read below.

In the 1790 Federal Census for New Bedford, Bristol County, MA, it lists Isaac as head of the household with 2 males over 16, 2 males under 16 and 4 females. Probably Isaac,Sr. and Isaac, Jr. are over 16, John and Prince, under 16 and three daughters and his wife would be the females. Cornelius was probably born after the census was taken in 1790. Ephraim would have been gone from home at the age of 25 when the census was taken.

Isaac is listed in the Stillwater, Albany County, NY census for the year of 1799. He lived next door to Samuel Leggitt and Gabriel Leggett, then Ephraim Annable. Next door to Ephraim was Thomas Leggitt.

I saac had $26. in real extate and he was taxed $2.00. fro that year. Ephraim, perhaps his son, had $832. in real property and $135. in personal property. He was taxed $96. for the year.

Daughter, Eunice married Samuel Right Brown on February 13, 1803 in Saratoga.

A family history, "Home Folks Book of the Darius Myer's Family" by Violet M. Beck, 1968, a descendant of Prince Annable,states that Isaac, Sr. died at the age of 95 years.

In 1800, the New York census shows two Isaac Annables. One of them lived in Stillwater, Saratoga County, while the other lived in Cambridge, Washington County. The one in Saratoga could be this Isaac and his son in Washington County. Daughter, Eunice was married in Saratoga so this is more than likely correct.

Multiple births in this family first appear with the Snow/Smalley line of ancestors and have followed through for many generations.

Ephriam Annable, who lived in Saratoga, NY during the early 1800's and whose Rev. War records state that he was born in Nova Scotia in 1765 is probably the same as above. There are no vital records in Barrington, Nova Scotia for any Annables. According to the 1790 census in New Bedford, Massachusetts, no other previous children are listed that would fit the age group. Ephraim would have been seven years old at the time Isaac married Lydia. It is, however, according to family tradition, that an Ephraim was born to Isaac and was a half brother to Isaac's children by Lydia.

Audrey Annable Franklin says that Isaac died on 5 June, 1798 but location is unknown.

There was also another Isaac Annable, private, Capt. Henry Jenne's Co; enlisted Mar. 14, 1781; discharged Mar. 18, 1781, service, 4 days, on an alarm at Rhode Island. Could this be the same one?

1: Isaac Annable, born 1738 in Mass. went to Nova Scotia in about 1759-60 with his cousins: Capt. Jabez and Joshua Snow. They remained in Nova Scotia and Isaac returned to NY state sometime after 1765 when Ephraim was born in Nova Scotia to him and his wife, Eunice Swain. He is my GGGGgrandfather through another wife.
2. Information sent me from Archives of Nova Scotia in Halifax through Queens Cty Museum in Liverpool, Nova Scotia. ANNIBLE, CORNELIUS, Capt. Perkins, Jan 11, 1767; "I hear that the schr. Liverpool Packet goes to the West Indies, Cornelius Annible." Perkins, Aug. 15, 1767: At evening arrives the Schr. Success. Capt. Martin, from Turks Island, Cornelius Annable is his mae. They were at St. Croix. Perkins, Aug, 26, 1783: Capt. Annible sails for Connecticut. I write to Doc. Moseley & Capt. Perkins. Perkins, Aug, 27, 1783: Capt. Annible comes in again, Joshua Boomer is passenger with him & Thomas Burnsby. Perkins, Aug. 28, 1783: Capt. Annible sails again.
3: From same source as #2: ANNABLE, WILLIAM, francis Tupper says that Robert Plaiceway, Acue Trip, Wm. Annable, Jonathan Wood, Peleg Coffin and one Isaac Coffee, a negro, very early in settlement of Lpool established a fishery on
Coffin Island, with Peleg Coff as shoreman, and, apparently, the only one with house on Island. Long, Page 63: One of the deeds is from Robert Plaiceway, Acue Tripp, William ANnable, Isaac Cuffey (Coffee?), and Jonathan Wood, conveying to Daniel Torrey "a certain island at the entrance of the harbor know as Bear Island". This is now Coffin's Island.

Family/Spouse: Swain Eunice. Eunice (daughter of Swain Elijah and Cathcart Susanna) was born on 30 Jun 1738 in Nantucket, Nantucket County, MA; died before 1772 in Prob. Barrington, Nova Scotia, CAN. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Family/Spouse: Peckham Lydia. Lydia (daughter of Peckham James and HAMMOND Deborah P.) was born in 1749 in Dartmouth, Bristol County, MA; died after 1803 in NY. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Ephraim is listed in Saratoga in the 1790 Federal Census as having two males over sixteen, two males under sixteen years and three females.

Ephraim married Coffin Margaret about 1773 in Barrington, Nova Scotia, Canada. Margaret was born on 23 Jun 1756 in Nantucket, Nantucket County, MA; died after 1820 in Tioga, Tioga County, NY. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Elizabeth married Hammond David on 05 Dec 1764 in Rochester, Plymouth County, Ma. David was born on 26 Oct 1738; died on 20 Apr 1821 in Rochester, Plymouth County, MA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Is this the Samuel Annable (Annibal) who was living in Ontario county as listed in the 1800 Federal Census report? I think it is. He probably followed his brother, Isaac, to NY in the late 1790s. Page 370, pg0310.txt. He is also listed in the History of Saratoga County, NY as a Captain in the War of 1812.

Susannah married Rowley Ebenezer on 18 Oct 1750 in Chatham, Middlesex County, CT. Ebenezer was born on 20 Oct 1727; died on 07 Feb 1811. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

It is thought he died before 1790 because none of this name were shown in the census. Perhaps he went to New York with his son, Cornelius, III. There were Annables in Saratoga, Saratoga County, NY according to the Ny 1790 Census.

There was a Captain Cornelius Annibal mentioned in a diary of Simeon Perkins, also a captain who sailed the seas to Liverpool, Turkish Islands, and St. Croix, Virgin Islands. The diary is located in the archives of Halifax, Nova Scotia. This Cornelius looks to be one and the same mentioned.

Cornelius married Green Lucy on 10 Nov 1760 in East Haddam, Middlesex County, Ct. Lucy was born about 1738. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
