Uncertain Parentage

A yDNA-67 test by direct male descendant Bob Fields indicates two exact match relationships, and one near-exact match, to the Deschenes/Deschene/Deschaine/Mayville [previously Miville dit Deschenes] family from French Canada, but no close relationship to the members of the Fields Family Name Project. The exact matches are to Robert Mayville Jr whose tree from 1791 is at http://www.wikitree.com/genealogy/Mayville-Family-Tree-61, and Andre Descnenes whose tree from 1791 is http://www.wikitree.com/genealogy/Desch%C3%AAnes-Family-Tree-95 . The common ancestor between the two is Jacques Miville born 1639. The third ancestor with one differing genone, Carroll E. Descnaines is descended from a different son of Jacques Charles: Jean-Jacques Miville , born 1677, so the likely direct common ancestor is one of the other sons or their male descendants, born after 1671. Further refined yDNA testing should narrow down the exact line before 1800 and the most likely ancestors. One likely father based on yDNA is Jean Ephraim (John) Mayville aka Minville, who was born in Quebec in 1791 but migrated to Vermont in 1819, though any Mayville/Deschenes ancestor born between 1795 and 1639 could be the direct Miville/Deschenes ancestor. The likely direct ancestor is likely the father of SL since that is where the paper trail and family history suddenly ends, the person likely born about 1790. The Y-DNA comparison is available on the familytreedna website for the French Heritage y_DNA comparison, under the surname 'MIVILLE dit LE SUISSE, Pierre m 1631 Charlotte MAUGIS'. Robert Fields is kit# 366655, Dennis Field is kit# 46342.

If any researcher or historian in upstate New York (Steuben/Wayne/Ontario counties) has access to local historical records, we would deeply appreciate any local information related to Sargent Leonard or his possible adoptive parents Arnold Field/ Amy Serena Cole of Wayne County or Aaron Field/Hannah Simond of Ontario County, or any adoption or other non-parental event.

One of the ports of entry on Lake Ontario was in Williamson, Ontario - Wayne County NY where Aaron and Hannah lived, and they are in the 1850 Census in Chautaqua NY where SL Field was married in 1838, with son Solomon. Other family members are getting the same tests to verify relationships. Genetic relationship has been confirmed to different descendants of his only surviving son with male descendants Acts Wesley Field, so any non-parental event would have happened in an earlier generation. We have exhausted the available online research.

Note from Carroll Deschaines, Miville dit Deschenes genealogist

Harold Deschene and I had tested with Relative Genetics around 2004. Robert Mayville tested later and found the match to our results. Jade worked with us for Robert to complete the 46 marker test, which was the maximum at the time. Robert and Jade had been searching for over 14 years for a Miville connection to their Mayville line. I was able to complete the Miville-Deschenes connection since I had access to most of the Quebec Parish Registers and other sources such as the PRDH, Jette, Tanquay, Red Droin, Blue Drouin, County records and all of the 30 Volume Captain Thomas J. Laforest (USN-retired) translation of the Father Gerard Lebel series of biographies of the oldest French Canadian families. The Mayville connection to the Quebec data was through Jean. Because of all of my previous Miville-Deschenes genealogy research I had fully expected the Mayville line to be descended from Francois Miville rather than Jacques. It was a serendipity surprise when I tracked their family connection to Jacques and Catherine through the son Charles the Elder. Harold and I had already established our ascendancy through Jean and Charles the Younger respectively. This was the perfect genealogy stroke since all of the three Jacques male descendent lines were represented. You will notice on the attached form that I have one mutation at DYS449, Harold has one mutation at DYS441, and both you and Robert have no observed mutation in this data set. Since majority rules we can assume that your data very likely matches Jacques’ DNA.

The link to the Miville ascendancy was through Jean (John) Mayville who married Susan Reynolds around 1820 in Franklin County, Vermont. Jean was the son of Jean Minville and Marie-Veronique Richard who were married on 10 November 1788 in Ste-Marguerite-de-Blairfindie, L’Acadie, St-Jean County, Quebec. They had three known children born and baptized in L’Acadie: Pierre Minville born on 7 May 1789, Jean born on 27 January 1791, and Veronique Minville born on 19 March 1794. Harold Deschene was born in 1920 and had been doing genealogy research for 60 years. His mother was a Richard therefore he had quite a complete Richard family tree so it was easy to substantiate the Jean Minville and Marie-Veronique Richard union.

From the obvious Miville Y-Chromosome DNA connection we must assume that Sargent Leonard Field was the product of a possible Non Paternal Event (NPE) between a male Miville descendant and a female Field descendant. The primary candidate would be Pierre Minville, brother to Jean, who does not reappear on any Canadian document after his Baptism in L’Acadie. However, if he emigrated to the USA it would probably have been to northern Vermont where the NPE would most likely have occurred. The down side to that argument is the apparent non-available Field partner in Vermont and the existing Sargent Field records showing a New York state birth location. Later census records from his children indicated that their father was born in Vermont (second-secondhand information).

However, there is another not so obvious approach. My many years of detailed French-Canadian and Acadian genealogy research affords me some insight into this particular possibility. The main problem in validating this case is the lack of data for the time period in the USA. It also involves the anglicizing of a surname which happens quite frequently especially when emigrating to a predominantly English speaking area. The surname Deschenes is anglicized to Oak(s) while Deschamps is anglicized to Field(s). I searched locations in western Quebec Province where both Miville and Dechamps families co-existed during the 1770 to 1830 time frame. I found good candidates in the St-Laurent, St-Eustache, St-Martin and Ste-Rose locations. Two families appeared to be likely candidates. The family of Hyacinthe Minville and the family of Pierre Deschamps. You have to consider family situations such as the influence of step-mothers in second and third marriages which affect the behavior of children from previous marriages.

Hyacinthe Minville married Marie-Josephe Clairoux on 6 may 1788 in St-Martin. They had four children before Marie-Josephe’s death on 7 March 1795. The children were Pierre Myville - 1789, Jean-Baptiste Mainville- 1791, Hyacinthe Miville - 1793 and Anonyme Miville - 1795. Hyacinthe Minville subsequently married Marie-Eugenie Brisebois on 15 June 1795 in Ste-Genevieve and they had at least eight more children: Marie-Charles, Marie-Charlotte, Marie-Josephe, Marie-Hyppolitte, Appoline, Marie-Marguerite, Christine, and Marie-Louise. The only son accounted for in future documentation is Jean-Baptiste Mainville. It is quite possible that Pierre and Hyacinthe emigrated to upstate New York along with other French-Canadian individuals. The father Hyacinthe Minville is also descended from Charles (the Elder) Miville and Louise-Charlotte Grondin, the same as Jean Minville. Consequently, their Y-Chromosome DNA would very likely be identical to yours.

Pierre Deschamps married Ursule Laplante on 23 January 1792 in Ste-Rose. They had nine children before Ursule’s death on 14 February 1810. The children are as follows: Pierre - 1792, Jean-Baptiste - 1793, Marie-Louise - 1796, Clemence - 1797, Pierre - 1798, Francois-Olivier - 1801, Jean-Baptiste – Eustache - 1803, and Marie-Urdule - 1805. Subsequent to Ursule’s death Pierre married Marie-Reine Aubry on 8 February 1814 in St-Martin. Their children are Francois - 1814, Jean-Baptiste - 1816, and Henriette Leonard - 26 August 1820. Pierre died in St-Laurent on 8 December 1820. Henriette’s intended middle name may have been Eleonore, however, it is definitely written as Leonard in the St-Laurent Parish Register.

The four individuals of interest are Pierre Mainville, Hyacinthe Miville, Marie-Louise Deschamps and Clemence Deschamps. They essentially disappear from Quebec records after their births/baptisms. Since the early 1800s was the period of increasing emigration to the USA it is quite likely that the paths of these individuals could have crossed in upstate New York since they were from a common locality. Many of my ancestors crossed the border into northern Maine in the same time period and settled in the community which was served by a priest with Miville ancestry. The ascendancy for Hyacinthe Minville is as follows:

M-2: Hyacinthe Minville married Marie-Eugenie Brisebois on 15 June 1795 in Ste-Genevieve.

M-1: Hyacinthe Minville married Marie-Josephe Clairoux on 6 May 1788 in St-Martin.

Joseph Miville married Marie-Josephte Germain on 1 July 1743 in St-Laurent. Hyacinthe was born in 1760.

Charles Miville-Deschenes married Louise-Charlotte Grodin on 13 February 1697 in Rivierre-Ouelle. Joseph was born in 1719.

Jacques Miville-dit-Deschenes married Marie-Catherine de Baillon on 12 November 1669 in Quebec City. Charles was born in 1671.

Hopefully this will provide some food for thought. It is unfortunate that USA records are so sparse and non-informative as compared to Canadian records during the period of 1780 to 1850.

Biography

Sargent Leonard was born about 1814-1817. Farmer. Member of the 37th Iowa "Graybeards" Co. F who volunteered for service despite being past the exemption age of 45, on 12/15/1862 at Muscatine Iowa. Eyes Hazel, hair dark, complexion dark, 5'9". He passed away 3/3/1865 from disease of lungs. Buried Oakland Cemetery, Manchester, Delaware Co. Iowa. He and 3 of 5 sons died in the US Civil War, the other two were too young to serve.^[1] An extensive 37th regimental history, with colorful stories, appear in Greybeards in Blue, originally published in the February 1998 issue of Civil War Times Magazine. Another regimental history and member list is at Roster and Record of Iowa Troops In the Rebellion, Vol. 5 By Guy E. Logan.

Pension and Service Records

From the widow's pension info from his much younger wife Margaret Field (now a widow again) circa 1910, at the Washington DC National Archives transcribed by Bob Fields about 1992, documenting service-related disability (this was the original pension record available only in the National Archives Building, not imaged online): Sargent L. was healthy when he entered the service, took sick in January 1864 when they were being moved from Alton IL to Rock Island by railroad. His official service record shows: July/Aug 1864 in US General Hospital Memphis TN. Rejoined unit 9/8/1864. Continued sick until 25 Feb 1865 and discharged by reason of disability, Davenport Iowa. Got as far as Manchester in Delaware County Iowa when he died March 3, 1865 at the residence of J.S. Belknap. Mustered out 5/24/1865. Pension case 101.643 granted 5/16/1865. 60 days sick - severe attack of fever, valvular disease of the heart, 1/2 disability #R274.

The pension request also contained documentation saying SL was born in (originally from?) Wayne or Waynesboro NY. Also mentions that the family bible was lost on the journey from NY to Iowa in 1850. According to a hand-written testimonial from a friend in the 37th Regiment (required to establish that his death was connected to his Union service for widow pension), he was 'strong as a mule when he enlisted'. The original pension filing request filed from Iowa by Margaret Field and minor John J Field et al.^[2]. The pension record in the National Archives, Washington DC, is still available for firsthand original documentation research.

Census and Land Records

1830 Census, Walworth, Wayne, NY: Solomon Fidds (Sargent Field? or his father?) living in Walworth, Wayne NY with a family of 6 (1 female 60-69, 1 male 30-39, 1 female 20-29, 2 males 5-9, 2 males under 5, which fits the 1823 birth date of the 1840 census but not the 1814 birth date of the Civil War record.^[3]. In 1820 the same Solomon Fields lived in Concord, Niagra, NY.^[4]

1840 Census, Villanova, Chautauqua, NY: Sargeant Field in Villanova, Chautauqua, NY. 1 Free white person Male 20-29, 1 free white female age 20-29.^[5]

1850 Census, My Division, Marshall, Indiana: Sargent L Fields birth age 27 (abt 1823 NY), living at My Division, Marshall, Indiana, Farmer owning $200 of real estate. Wife Placida [Plumilla] age 34 (1816) born NY, Job M age 8 (1842), Saml F W age 6 (1844), Mark L age 5 (1845), Minerva age 3 (1847), John G age 1 (1849) all born in Indiana.^[6] He may have simply been transitioning to Iowa when the census was taken (based on the pension record documentation). The later birth date actually lines up better with the ages of the supposed parents Arnold Field and Amy Cole than the 1814 date from Civil War records.

Sargeant L. (written Sarge^a^nt ) Field of Marshall County, Indiana: Land office at Minimac. NW 1/4 SW 1/4 sec 31 Twp 34 Rng 3E 40 acres and 15/100s.^[7]

1856 Census, York, Delaware Iowa: Samont L Fields 1816 NY and female H O Fields age 22 (1834) born PA. Also JM Fields 1849 NY, Saul Fields 1842 NY, ML Fields 1843 NY, John Fields 1848 NY, Martha Fields 1851 Wisconsin?, Wesley A Fields 1854 Iowa. 100 acres of land, 5 tons of hay, 8 acres of spring wheat, 80 bushels, 8 acres of corn, 150 bushels, 10 acres of potatoes, 60 bushels, 50 lbs butter, 60 lbs wool, value $20.^[8] The family must have moved from Indiana to Iowa between 1850 and 1854.

Sargent L Field of Clayton County Iowa purchased 40 acres in Iowa, dated 15 Apr 1857, in the district of lands subject to sale at Dubuque Iowa. 'The northeast quarter of the southwest quarter of Section twenty in Township ninety one North of Range four West in the District of Lands subject to sale at Dubuque Iowa containing Forty Acres.'^[9]

1860 (July 14) Census, Honey Creek, Delaware, Iowa: S L Field 46 (b. 1814 NY), Job M Field 19 (b. 1841 Indiana), Solomon W Field 18 (1842 Iowa), Mark L Field 14 (1846 Iowa), John J Field 13 (1847 Iowa), Martha A Field 8 (1852 Iowa), Axe W Field 5 (1855 Iowa). He was a farmer, value of Real Estate $800, value of Personal Estate $374. He was apparently no longer married to Hellen, but other online records indicate she was later remarried.^[10]

Findagrave and mocavo says birth 1816 Schuyler County NY. This conflicts with the age at enlistment of 48 in 1862 (birth year 1814), other census records indicate 1816 and 1823. Earlier census records are more likely correct, the gravestone was ordered in 1887.

Oral Family history from Melvin / Dana Field

Sargent Leonard Field and Plumilla Wright Field were from Wayne County, New York. Heeding the call of the Westward Expansion they migrated west, first to Indiana then to York, Iowa where they settled. Plumilla’s sister and her family also joined them in this move west. As time passed, and similar to our family today, Plumilla’s father and mother also moved to Iowa to be near their children and grandchildren. Plumilla and Sargent had seven children. Job, Solomon, Mark, Minerva, John, Martha and Melvin's grandfather - Act's Wesley. He was the youngest born in February 2, 1854. His mother died of Yellow Fever in August 1855. Acts at only eighteen months would have no memories of his mother Plumilla. With seven children to raise and forty acres to farm Sargent did not remain a widower for long. He married again in October 1855 to Helen Arnold who was only 19 years of age. This was a pioneer family. Imagine Helen taking care of Acts and six other children under the age of thirteen in a home that, at that time; would be heated by hearth, cooking was done over an open fire, water needed to be pumped and carried into the home and light would be provided by candles. Helen had a baby girl, Lilla, in 1857. Lilla died a year later, the loss was too much for Helen to bear, and she left Sargent and his children. Sargent married again in 1859 to 49 year old Dorsal Rashaw. There is a worldwide flu epidemic from 1860 through 1861; his daughter Minerva dies in late 1860 and Dorsal dies in January 1861. The resourceful Sargent marries again in early spring to a Margaret Colbert.

The Greybeards spend most of their time guarding prisoners and trains and never see battle except for one skirmish atop a railcar when bushwhackers tried to rescue the Confederate prisoners on board. After that the regiment was dispersed to several different camps. Sargent was sent to Camp Chase, Ohio where he fell ill. Consequently he was discharged and proceeded to head home. When he reached the home of J.S. Belnap in Manchester, Iowa about 85 miles from his home in York he collapsed. Sargent died two days later, March 3, 1865. John, Martha and Acts at the ages of 15, 13 and 10 are basically orphaned. Margaret Hill Field remarries in 1873 and later in life files for Sargent’s Civil War pension.

New York County changes over time

Schuyler Co., NY was formed in 1854 from Chemung, Tompkins, & Steuben counties, but has remnants of other earlier counties:

In 1816 Steuben Co (now Schuyler county)... The area of Schuyler co., NY was first called Tryon co., NY 1772 - 1781. Re-named Montgomery co., NY 1781 - 1791. Ontario co., NY was formed in 1789 from Montgomery. Steuben co., NY (incl. Wayne, Tyrone, Orange) formed 1796 (from Ontario co.) Schuyler co., NY formed 1854 (from all of the above)

Field Family in Steuben County

Allen Cemetery Howard, Steuben Co, NY has the only references in the county records to Field family: Silas Field d. 30 Dec ???? Son of Arnold & Amy Serena Field; Job Field d. 16 Jul ???? - Age 2y, Son of Arnold & Amy Serena Field; Mary Field d. 26 Apr ???? - Age 3y, Daughter of Arnold & Amy Serena Field; ____ Ann Field d. 13 Mar 1841 - Age 19y, Daughter of Arnold & Amy Serena Field; Arnold Field d. 13 Mar 1845; Amy Serena Field b. 1800, Wife of Arnold Field Born in Otsego Co, NY (Family Rec.); Alzina Fields d. Dec 1852 - Age 34y.

Amy Serena would have to be 16 if Sargent Leonard was born in 1816. 1830 Census shows Justus and Levi Wright (relatives to wife Plumilla) living in the same township. Note that 2yo son Job has the same name as Sargent Leonard's son b.1841 killed at Andersonville.

1820 Census Steuben Co lists only Harmon (likely Arnold) Field living in Wayne NY, males: 1 under 10, 2 16-26; females: 2 under 10, 1 16-26; 2 engaged in commerce (not agriculture?). So Arnold has a son and two daughters under 10 in 1820. Also lists Wrights in Wayne Twp: Elijah, Ephraim, John. 1810 and 1800 Census for Steuben Co lists no Field or Wright. Column headings on microfilm not visible, I had to use http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1820_United_States_Census.

1830 Census for Arnold Field shows Males 1 under 5, 2 10-15, 1 30-40, Females 2 5-10, 1 30-40. Indicates Arnold and Amy Serena both born before 1800, and the younger son survived the next 10 years.

Field Family in Ontario / Chautauqua Counties

Another possibility for parents are Aaron Field and Hannah Simond, married Jan 15, 1809 in Pawlet, Vermont. He was born about 1786 in NY and died after 1860. She appears to have died between 1840 and 1850. They moved to Cherry Creek, Chatauqua Co where Sargent Leonard was married in 1838. No related Fields graves are listed in findagrave in Chautauqua County. Census records include:

1810 Nunda, Allegany, NY Aaron Fields. 1 male 16-25 1 female 16-25 1 female under 16. Saml Fields (over 45) on same page.

1820 Williamson, Ontario, NY Aaron Fields. males: 2 under 10, 1 26-44; females: 1 under 10, 1 10-15, 1 26-44. Next to Judah Simonds and near Silas Simonds and James Wright.

1830 Buffalo, Erie, NY A Field. males: 1 15-19, 1 30-39; females: 2 under 5, 1 15-19, 1 20-29.

1840 Cherry Creek, Chautauqua, NY Aaron Fields. males: 2 15-19, 1 50-59; females: 1 10-14, 1 20-29, 1 50-59

1850 Cherry Creek, Chautauqua, NY A Field 65 born NY, Hannah 45 born MA, Soloman 33 NY, Savny 48 NY

1860 Cherry Creek, Chautauqua, NY Aaron Field 74 born NY, Hannah 79 born NY, Myron 39 born NY. $2600 farm.

Solomon (1817), Myron (1821), and Levi (1824) were all born in Williamson, Wayne County, New York. Their parents were Aaron Field and Hannah Simonds (Simons) who may have married in Pawlet, Rutland County, Vermont on 15 January 1809. She was born in Massachusetts while he was born in New York. In 1810 they were in Nunda, Allegany County, New York. It 1820 they were in Williamson, Ontario County, Vermont. In 1823 that part of Ontario County became Wayne County. In 1857 Nunda became part of Livingston County.

Solomon’s reference to learning about Sargent’s passing from Mercy Ann Ingram would be news to Levi and Myron, but, not to the relatives in Iowa. Levi would have known Mercy Ann Wright Ingram since she was Plumilla Wright’s sister who also came from Villenova, NY. In 1850 George and Mercy Ann Ingram are living in Villenova, NY with William and Plumilla Wright, parents of Plumilla and Mercy Ann. Sometime after 1854 George and Mercy Ann moved to Iowa. In 1870 they are living in Mason Township, Cerro Gordo County, Iowa. In 1880 they are living in Aldrich Township, Wedona County. Minnesota. George Ingram was a shoemaker. Reference by Solomon pertaining to who is taking care of Acts appears to be a reference to Sacky Philips who lives nearby. Her name was Sarah Philips married to Charles Philips who reside in the next household. His parents, Charles and Elizabeth Philips, live in the next household.

It is very likely that Sargent was also born in Williamson, Wayne County in 1814/1815. There is an unmarried female who seems to be part of the Aaron Field household, however, she is only mentioned once by name in the 1850 census. All other censuses from 1810 to 1840 only show her as a tick mark. She is identified in the 1850 census as Stavna Field, probably a sister to Aaron. She might be the unknown mother of Sargent. Aaron Field was born in 1785 of unknown parents, therefore he could be the issue of the NPE. The only way to ascertain that possibility is to have some descendants of Solomon, Levi or Myron DNA-tested.

There is also another candidate brother, Henry D. Field, who was born in Williamson, Wayne County, New York in 1818 and stayed there. In 1862 he enlisted in the New York’s 160th Volunteer Regiment at the advanced age of 44. He was wounded, lost his right arm, and spent time in a hospital. He continued to live in Williamson through the census of 1892.

If any local Iowa researchers could provide additional family/marriage records, or any pictures of Sargent Leonard or the 37th Iowa, those would be much appreciated.
