     Acknowledgement: The author is very grateful to Maria (Terry) Remley of Charleston, South Carolina and to Connie Barber of Austin, Texas for a profitable collaboration, material contributions and useful discussions.

     This essay is a part (subdivision) of the ‘Five Generations of the Terry of Bucks County Pennsylvania’, describing the descendants of Thomas Terry, a grandson of Thomas Terry born abt 1653, the first Terry settler of Bucks County. The early Terrys were Quakers.[simple_tooltip content=’1. The Terry-line founder Thomas may have been attracted to Bucks County because of William Penn’s promise that ‘Penn’s Land’ would be a haven for Quakers, where they would be able to worship as they chose. The Society of Friends had only separated themselves, under the leadership of George Fox, from the Church of England in 1640 after the Cromwellian revival. Fox had the idea that people could have a direct experience of Christ without benefit of clergy; he bade them ‘tremble at the word of the Lord’ (Isaiah 66:2) hence were they called ‘Quakers’ by many. Their numbers rose to be one-third of the English population by the mid-18th century. As pacifists they were promptly persecuted in England with several laws passed in the late 17th century to curtail their activities in England (Wikipedia).’]1[/simple_tooltip]

     The genealogy which follows begins at the third generation after Thomas Terry of Bucks, b. 1653. There are several direct descendants of this Thomas whose Y-DNA STRs are presented and discussed in ‘Addendum 1. Analysis of Terry Y-DNA Markers.’

     30. David Terry (Thomas4 Thomas3 Jasper2 Thomas1) was born abt 1775 of Moreland Twp, Montgomery, Pennsylvania. He does not appear in the 1790-1820 censuses of Pennsylvania. It is widely believed without proof (viz. FamilySearch Family Tree, Ancestry trees and other sources) that this David married Sarah Doran of New Jersey, but this is almost certainly wrong.[simple_tooltip content=’251. In addition to the disparity in their ages (David b. 1775 and Sarah b. 1792) there is clear evidence that the ‘David Terry’ that was married to Sarah Doran was born in New Jersey! David and Sarah lived the later part of their lives and both died in Philadelphia where there is evidence of his NJ birth. See ‘David Terry/Mary and Sarah Doran’; ‘Five Generations of the Terry Family in Bucks County, Pennsylvania’ essay: in ‘Group 2: no linkage to Thomas Terry b. 1653 of Bucks’ near the end of the essay for more details and sources.’]251[/simple_tooltip] David, the son of Thomas4, clearly has disappeared from Pennsylvania, but then perhaps shows up in the Carolinas?

There is no documentary proof for this. There are other possibilities, but they are less likely.

      In some way, we must deal with the fact that John Thomas Terry was born 22 Mar 1800 at New Bern, Craven, North Carolina and he was shown by Y-DNA analysis to be a descendant of Thomas Terry of Bucks (b. 1653).

      John Thomas Terry could be a grandson of William Terry b. 1724 (m. Rachel Manson), although Y-DNA analysis disfavors this possibility.[simple_tooltip content=’253. The Y-DNA STR analysis (see ‘Addendum 1. Analysis of Terry Y-DNA Markers’ for actual data) shows the STR value (Short Tandem Repeat) for the John Thomas Terry descendant at locus 2 (column 2, DYS390) to be 24 repeats while the value at this locus for Wm Terry (b.1724, m. Rachel Manson) descendants is 25 repeats (3 separate individuals). This suggests he is not a descendant of Wm Terry, b. 1724.’]253[/simple_tooltip] There are already two other descendants of William Terry who left Bucks for Virginia that have been shown to be descendants of Thomas Terry of Bucks by Y-DNA analysis. Their common ancestor is the Virginian John Terry (1760-1842), son of William.

NOTES

1. The Terry-line founder Thomas may have been attracted to Bucks County because of William Penn’s promise that ‘Penn’s Land’ would be a haven for Quakers, where they would be able to worship as they chose. The Society of Friends had only separated themselves, under the leadership of George Fox, from the Church of England in 1640 after the Cromwellian revival. Fox had the idea that people could have a direct experience of Christ without benefit of clergy; he bade them ‘tremble at the word of the Lord’ (Isaiah 66:2) hence were they called ‘Quakers’ by many. Their numbers rose to be one-third of the English population by the mid-18th century. As pacifists they were promptly persecuted in England with several laws passed in the late 17th century to curtail their activities in England (Wikipedia).

43. By the beginning of the War of 1812 most members of the Yonge Street congregation including the Terrys had joined a pacifist splinter group called the ‘Children of Peace’ founded by David Willson, a New York Quaker emigrant, who also arrived in 1801. When the militia conscription for the War of 1812 arrived in Upper Canada not only did the Quakers refuse to serve, but they also refused to pay the militia fee as most had come from and were sympathetic to the United States.

Whereas the ‘plain folk’ (Quakers) had no musical tradition, the Children of Peace created the first civilian band in Canada and built the first organ in Ontario. By the 1820’s the group had developed a cooperative economy and had founded their own credit union. By selling their farm produce as a group, they could get better prices. They were not communal, but had a land-sharing system that made them, as a group, prosperous farmers in an era when new farmers frequently failed. By the late 1820’s they had founded their own town “Hope” (later Sharon) and had begun the construction of the Sharon Temple, an imitation of the Temple of Solomon, completed 1831.

Rachel Manson) descendants is 25 repeats (3 separate individuals). This suggests he is not a descendant of Wm Terry, b. 1724.
