| 5728 | Seignelay immigrated at the invitation of his uncles to France as a 14 year old boy in 1750, where he enrolled in the priesthood. By age 28 he became Grand Vicar-General of Toulouse and in 1781 was made Bishop of Rhodez. "As Bishop, he distinguished himself by the work he did for the improvement of agriculture and industry in his diocese, and, as a member of the States General in 1789, he became the hero of the hour in Paris and was carried shoulder-high through the streets for proposing the union of the clergy with the Third Estate. In 1792, during the French Revolution, when the Civil Constitution of the clergy was declared, Segnelay refused to submit, and fled to England to seek shelter and asylum with his brother Lewis. Segnelay later returned to France and spent the remainder of his days as Secretary to King Louis XVIII." (Bulloch) Seignelay is recorded as having been a cousin of philosopher David Hume and a close friend and "chief guide" to Adam Smith, the famous economist. Belfast Newsletter, 18-22 May 1781, p. 2. Under the heading of Dublinis found the following notice: "A letter from Paris, dated April 30, says, 'On Sunday, the 22nd instant, John Seignelay COLBERT, or CUTHBERT, was consecrated Bishop Rodez Rovergue, by Stephen Charles Lomenie de Brienne, Archbishop of Toulouse, assisted by John de la Croix de Castries, Bishop of Vabres, and John Augustus de Chastenet de Puysequi, Bishop of Careassone(?), in the presence of a numerous assembly of persons of the first distinction in France, friends of the Bishop-elect, and of the principal nobility and gentry, British subjects, who were then in this city. This gentleman is the eldest son of the late Mr. COLBERT of Castlehill, in Invernessshire, in Scotland. He came to France at the age of fourteen years, and was placed by his uncle, a Roman Catholic clergyman, in the Scotch college at Paris, where he remained some years. He was afterwards in the college of Harcourt, and in both these colleges always distinguished himself by his good behaviour, and diligent application to his studies. He returned to the Scotch college, received priestly orders, was made Vicar-General in the diocese of Toulouse, and on account of his extraordinary parts and great merit, has been raised to the episcopal dignity, which very seldom happens to a foreigner in France. He is not only Bishop, but also Count of Rodez, and President of the States of Rovergue. He is, at present, about 46 years of age, of a very becoming appearance, and is endowed with a solid judgement, and a remarkable good heart.'" | Rhodez, Abbé Seignelay Cuthbert-alias-Colbert Bishop of Rhodez Count of (I13590)

| 5730 | Served as First Sergeant for 55th (McKoin's) Tennessee Infantry CSA (Confederate States of America). Also married to Anastasia L. Pope the mother of Matthew Fontaine DeGraffenried. (FindAGrave) Franklin, Tenn., Nov. 19. - Signal (sic) Duncan DeGraffenried died near Brentwood yesterday, after an illness of about a year. He was one of the most prominent citizens of this country. He was a son of Gen. M. D. DeGraffenried and a brother of Congressman Reese K. DeGraffenried, of Texas. (The Tennessean, Nashville, Tennessee, 20 Nov 1901) Tignal Duncan De Graffenried's name itself is an intriguing illustration of the blending of languages and cultures that occur in immigrant communities. His first name is Welsh; his middle name is Scots Gaelic; and his surname is Swiss-Germanic. | De Graffenried, Tignal Duncan (I23930)

| 5735 | Seth and his brother John were members of the Provincial Congress of 1775. In 1776 Seth enlisted in the Georgia Regiment, Revolutionary Army in which he served as a Colonel and Revenue Officer. He is listed in the Georgia Disqualifying Act 6 JUL 1780 as a Rebel Major. He served as President of the Supreme Executive Council of Georgia (Governor) in 1779 and Georgia's State Treasurer 1784-1786. He was also Secretary of the Council of Safety, and Acting Governor of Georgia, among other positions of public office. Seth married firstly in 1777 to Catherine Eustace or Blair. There are no known children from this marriage. She is recorded as having died in 1788. Seth married secondly in 1785 to Mary Clay, with whom he had two known sons. However his second marriage pre-dates the death of his first wife by three years. There's no indication that Seth divorced his first wife, nor that he was a bigamist, so there may be an error in the dates shown here. Seth John Cuthbert is referred to as the son of John Cuthbert in a public dispute between Seth John and Major William McIntosh Jr in 1788. The dispute arose out of an earlier dispute between their respective fathers, General William McIntosh Sr and John Cuthbert Sr. The dispute resulted in a threat to a public duel which never took place. (The full text follows below.) =========== In June, 1788, came the falling out between Maj. William McIntosh, Jr., and Col. Seth John Cuthbert, both men of local prominence, and both with war records that proved they were men of personal bravery. This affair grew out of a court trial in which McIntosh's father, General McIntosh, was making a defence in an action brought against him by John Cuthbert, Sr. Maj. McIntosh claimed that Col. Cuthbert "acted in a most unjustifiable manner, interrupting the general at a very inappropriate time, and declaring the general's assertions to be 'infamous falsehoods.'" The general, he pointed out, was referring to things that had occurred before Seth John Cuthbert was born, and of the truth of which he could not know. Gen. McIntosh had referred to the senior Cuthbert's "attempt to learn the cooper's trade, without possessing either industry, frugality or temper." Either the allusion to his father having been a cooper, or the accompanying remarks in derogation of his efforts to learn that trade, grievously wounded the younger Cuthbert. When called on, Cuthbert promptly admitted what he had said in the court room. "The words were forced from him," he said, "by the most illiberal and personal reflections on myself and my nearest connections that I have ever experienced." The offending words having been admitted, and no apology forthcoming, McIntosh sent a challenge at once: "I demand satisfaction at 11 o'clock tomorrow morning at the Fort, where I shall attend with a gentleman." The "Fort" was old Fort Wayne, at the foot of the Bay, where the gas works now stand. It was a favorite resort for the duellists of that day. The challenge was not accepted. Seth John Cuthbert felt himself bound "in reason and honor to answer no person but your father in any personal dispute between him and myself." He declined the challenge but stood ready to accept one from Gen. McIntosh. "There is a much greater similarity in his situation in life and my own. than there is betwixt yours and mine," said he to Maj. McIntosh, "and it is unreasonable to accept your challenge because, on the same principle that you demand satisfaction, it might be demanded by every member of your family in succession." McIntosh repeated the challenge. The next morning Mr. Clay, Jr., acting as the friend of Cuthbert, waited on Mr. Gibbons and informed him that Col. Cuthbert wished to refer the question of acceptance of Maj. McIntosh's challenge to two persons, and mentioned Mr. Gibbons and Dr. MacLeod as proper persons. Maj. McIntosh finally agreed and accepted Mr. MacQueen to represent him. MacQueen unexpectedly left the city and the board gave no decision. Then McIntosh published the correspondence and added that he had posted Col. Cuthbert, under the vendue house on Sunday afternoon, in the following words: "I do declare Seth John Cuthbert to be a coward. My reasons shall be made known in the publick Gazette. WM. McINTOSH, Jun." Was there a hostile meeting between the two? It would seem almost inevitable that the former patriot officers should have met at ten paces at Fort Wayne after this public posting. Seth John Cuthbert died a few months later, in November, the "Gazette" states, "after a tedious and painful illness", which leads one to infer he may have been an ill man at the time of the trouble with Maj. McIntosh. The "Gazette" said he "was among the first who stood in the cause of their country. In 1776 he was appointed major of the Second Continental Battalion." He also represented Chatham in the legislature and served acceptably as State Treasurer in 1784. The "Gazette" speaks of his "amiable qualities and brilliant abilities." http://files.usgwarchives.net/ga/chatham/history/other/gms410savannah.txt | Cuthbert, Hon. Maj. Seth John (I3564)

| 5738 | Several online trees show James as marrying Eliza Jane Craig, however they are not correct, as the marriage record for that couple shows that James' father to be John Liptrot. Two possible occurances for our James can be found in the 1881 census, both born about 1852 in Bolton. Earlier records show the other of these to be the son of Matthew Liptrot formerly of Cheshire. However there is no way at present to determine which of the two James Liptrots found in 1881 is the son of James and which is the son of Matthew. James is not found in the 1891 census for England or Wales. He is presumed to have died or emigrated. | Liptrot, James (I8947)

| 5742 | Sgt. John Stewart, Sr. (1791-1855), was a Highland soldier born at Bridge of Teith near Doune in Kilmadock parish, Perthshire, Scotland. His family originated 20 miles to the north at Ardveich at the foot of Glen Beich on the north shore of Loch Earn on the boundary between Balquhidder and Comrie parishes. They belonged to clan Sliochd Iain Dubh Mhor, a cadet branch of the Stewarts of Ardvorlich, the senior branch of the Stewarts of Balquhidder. John carried the name of his great-grandfather, John Dubh Mhor Stewart of Dalveich, an illegitimate son of Maj. James Beag Stewart, 2nd of Ardvorlich. John served in the Napoleonic Wars (1803-1815) and was later stationed in Ireland where he met and married his wife, Sarah Margaret Smale (or Small) (1805-1854). They began their family in Ireland and, upon John’s discharge from the army, they returned to his home in Balquhidder parish and resided at Lochearnhead, just a short walk from his ancestral home at Ardveich. John was something of a favourite of his clan chief, William Stewart, 8th of Ardvorlich, who secured for him a position as a police sergeant and inspector. With his police salary and military pension, he was able to live out his life comfortably. In 1845, John named his daughter, Helen Maxton Stewart, after Helen Maxton, wife of William Stewart, 8th of Ardvorlich. John Stewart and Sarah Smale had eight children. Sarah Smale died in 1854 and her husband, Sgt. John Stewart Sr., died a year later in 1855, leaving their children orphaned, ranging in ages from 26 to 10 years old. The older siblings appear to have stepped in to look after the younger siblings. Daughter, Sarah, describes them as being unable to continue living in their parents’ former home. Of their children: Eldest daughter, Mary Ann Stewart, had an illegitimate son, Michael, by an unknown man and then married William Rattray, a railway porter from St. Ninians, Stirlingshire. They had several children of their own and took in Mary Ann’s younger sisters, Isabella and Helen. John Smale Stewart became a poet and a sailor and travelled the world before finally settling in New Zealand with his younger brother, Alexander (a.k,a. “Abel”), where he was a farmer, a gold prospector, and finally a respected school teacher. John's poetry invokes images of New Zealand and implies a sympathy for the plight of exploited indigenous Maori peoples. Middle daughter, Sarah, also became a poet and worked as a household servant before marrying another poet, John Hyslop, known as “The Postman Poet.” ----------- The 79th Cameron Highlanders John Stewart’s regiment is not recorded, but his cousin, Robert Stewart in Ardveich, served in the 79th Cameron Highlanders who fought in the Napoleonic Wars (1793 - 1815). The movements of the 79th match with what is known of John’s service. He served in St. Helena during Napoleon’s captivity and later in Ireland. In 1793-94, the 79th were stationed in Ireland and England, then they were deployed to Belgium to fight against Napoleon at the Battle of Flanders. In 1795 they were deployed to the West Indies for two years, then back to England, and to France. In 1801, they were sent to Egypt to stave off French control of the route to India. Then to Menorca in Spain, Portugal, Denmark, back to France. After Napoleon’s abdication in 1814, they were stationed in Cork, Ireland. From there it was back to Belgium in 1815 to battle a returned Napoleon and finally to France for the defeat and capture of Napoleon at the Battle of Waterloo. They remained in France until 1818 after which they were deployed for home service. For John, home service was presumably in Ireland, perhaps back in Cork. ----------- John Stewart's mother was identifed as "Kathrine McKerracher" at his baptism. John Stewart is described in The Stewarts of Ardvorlich Vol. 3 as "a constable (who) died in 1855 (and) had two sons [now in] in Australia, John and Abel (sic - Alexander)." John never moved to Australia so it is likely thatThe Stewarts of Ardvorlich Vol. 3 meant that his two sons were "now in Australia." About 1827, John married Sarah SMALL, probably in Ireland, although no record of their marriage has been found. The 1841 census shows the family residing in Lochearnhead, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland and shows John's occupation as an army soldier. The 1851 census shows the family residing in Coilmore, Ardvorlich, Comrie, Perthshire, Scotland and shows John's occupation as "police constable, Sergeant." On 17 Nov 1855, at age 64, in St. Fillans, Comrie, Perthshire, Scotland, John Stewart died. He is buried in the Stewart family ground at the Old Kirkyard, Dundurn, Comrie, Perthshire, Scotland. His parents are listed as Alexander Stewart, wright, and Catherine McKercher. His children are listed as Mary Stewart (23), Catherine Stewart (22), John 21, Isabella 18, Sarah 16, Alexander 14, Helen 10. The informant is James Stewart, his brother. | Stewart, Sgt.
