Notes for Daniel Whitehead and Armitage

1603 Daniel Whitehead was born about 1603, based on his testmony in 1668 at age 65. Perhaps he was born in England. [1] [2]

1644 Daniel Whitehead arrived in Hempstead, Long Island about 1644 and appeared on the list of original proprietors there. [3] [4]
A map of New Netherland (including New York and Long Island) shows Hempstead, as "Heemstee" on Long Island.

The property changed hands several times during the next two decades, acquiring the name Horse Neck because Huntington farmers grazed horses there. In 1684, James Lloyd, a Boston merchant became the sole owner of Horse Neck. On March 8, 1685, the Lieutenant Governor granted James Lloyd the royal patent for Horse Neck and formally renamed it the Manor of Queen's Village.

Daniel Whitehead (Sr.), of Maspeth Kills, in Newtowne, left a will, and made his wife ["my loveinge wiefe gene", Jane] executrix. She renounced the right. Stephanus Van Cortlandt, on behalf of his father Olof Stephanus Van Cortlandt, a creditor, was appointed administrator on March 31, 1669. [95] [96] [97] [98] [99]:

1668 Daniel Whitehead died in Newtown, Long Island, in November, at age 65. [100] [101]

1668 The inventory, dated November 13, of the estate of Daniel Whitehead of Newtown, Queens County included the house, orchard, upland, meadow, gifts of livestock to son Daniel, a cow to son Adam, it having been given to Adam by his grandfather Ireland, and a mare and steers to his son Jonathan [102] [103] [104][Albany State Archives J0301]. The inventory indicates that Adam Whitehead had grandfather Ireland. Some have assumed that this refers to son Adam and conclude that Daniel Whitehead was married to a daughter of Ireland. [105] Others have assumed, as we do, that the text refers to grandson Adam Whitehead, indicating that son Adam Whitehead was married to a daughter of Ireland.

1669 The will of Thomas Ireland named daughter Jane, who was living with her mother. [106] Perhaps Jane returned to live with her family after the death of Daniel Whitehead.

Research Notes:

1633 Michaell and Jervacius Whitehead were freeholders of Breason, Derbyshire. [116]

Daniel Whitehead appeared in Long Island records in the spring of 1653. Perhaps he came from Sandwich, Connecticut with the Rev. William Leverich/Liverich/Leveridge, who visited Long Island (New York) in company with some of his former parishioners at Sandwich, and purchased land with others at Oyster Bay.

This sketch of a likely descendant may contain some truths, although I have not been able to verify any. I seek documentation regarding these reports. [117]

John G L Whitehead, M.D. a Bordentown, N.J., was born August 1, 1828. He is the only surviving son of Willett and Maria (Elaway) Whitehead, and in his veins runs some of the best blood in the country. His grandfather, Daniel Whitehead, who was born in the city of London, England, was one of the early settlers on Long Island. He was enjoying a fair degree of prosperity as manager of the stage lines on the island when the Revolution broke out, but he immediately joined the patriotic forces. He was employed as a scout, and did much faithful service for the cause, suffering in proportion; for the British confiscated his stagecoaches and horses. His military service covered a term of seven years; and shortly after its. expiration he died, being then fifty two years of age.

His wife, the Doctor's grandmother, was Catherine Willett, of Long Island, a descendant of Captain Thomas Willett, the first mayor of New York City. Captain Willett, who was an Englishman, came to America in the ship "Lion," it is said, about ten or twelve years after the landing of the Pilgrims on Plymouth Rock. He was a great friend to the Indians, of whom he bought large tracts of land in Rehoboth and vicinity, a part of the territory of Plymouth Colony. Much of his early life had been spent in Holland, and his knowledge of the Dutch language and of the customs of that people enabled him to render much service in the conduct of public affairs in New York during the early period of its possession by the English. He died August 4, 1674, in the sixty-fourth year of his age. His grave is in what is now East Providence, R.I. Mrs. Catherine Willett Whitehead, like her husband, lived but fifty-two years. They reared seven children. Willett Whitehead, the youngest of the seven, was born at Jamaica, Long Island. He learned the trade of ship-building as a boy in Philadelphia, and up to his fifty-first year he was actively engaged as a ship-carpenter and ship-builder in that city. He spent the rest of his life in retirement, and died at the age of eighty-two. Mr. Whitehead was a veteran of the War of 1812. His wife was a daughter of a Mr. Elaway, of Philadelphia, and a member of an old family, her ancestors having settled in that locality some forty years prior to the time of William Penn. She died in Bordentown at the age of fourscore. Mr. and Mrs. Whitehead were members of the Baptist church. They were the parents of eight children, seven of whom reached maturity. Of these, four are now living: Mary, Mrs. George; John G. L., the subject of this sketch; Elizabeth, Mrs. Rotsell; and Annie, Mrs. Gardener.

Notes, see [118]

Some researchers name Sarah Whitehead, spouse of Thomas Oakley, as a daughter of this couple. [119] We seek documentation to cfurther larify this potential relationship. Other notes, potentially related to this possibility, are gathered below:

1730 The will of Thomas Oakly, carpenter of Westchester, New York, named wife Abigail and children Thomas, Jemimah, Nehemiah, Abigail, Elisha, and Edward. [120] [121]
