Dr. N. J. Paschall – Fulton County, was born May 21, 1840, in Weakley County,  Tennessee, six miles southeast of Fulton.   He is the eleventh of thirteen  children, seven boys and six girls, two boys and one girl now living, born to  Jesse M. and Mary (Freeman) Paschall, natives respectively of Caswell and  Grandville Counties in North Carolina. His grandparents were Alexander and Susan  (Morgan) Paschall, of French descent. The father of our subject came to Weakley County in January 1827, and entered about 220 acres of land, which he improved  and lived on until his death in 1872; he was born in 1799. The father,  grandfather and great-grandfather and mother of subject all lie in the family graveyard on the farm entered by grandfather  Alex Paschall, and now owned by Dr.  N. J. Paschall. His father flat boated in an early day down the Mississippi  River, and was one of the first magistrates of Weakley County. He assisted in  organizing the first court and was appointed justice for life.   At the end of the four years the constitution was changed; he was then elected for sixteen years.  He enlisted to assist in removing the Cherokee Indians, also enlisted in the  Florida War. He was an intimate friend of Davy Crockett.

Dr. N. J. Paschall was  reared on a farm and received a common school education, the best the log-school  of the pioneer days could afford.  He lived with his parents till he was  seventeen years of age, when he commenced the study of medicine with his  brother, G. W. Paschall. He took his first course of medical lectures at  Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1861. After his return  he enlisted in July 1861, in a cavalry company commanded by Capt. Ballentine. He  participated in the battles of Paducah, Corinth, Britton’s Lane, Fort Pillow,  bombardment of Vicksburg, Bolivar, Fort Donelson and Belmont. He re-enlisted  in  the spring of 1862 for three years or during the war, and was detailed at  various times to take charge of the sick. He was  under the command of the  following named generals: Pillow, Forrest and Van Dorn. After the surrender in  May 1865, he  returned home and shortly after emigrated to Kaufman Co., Texas,  where he remained three years. He returned, renewed his study of medicine and graduated at Jefferson Medical College in the spring of 1869. He located at  Fulton, where he has continued his practice ever since with success. He attended  a course of medical lectures at St. Louis Medical College in 1871.

Dr. Paschall  owns 225 acres of land in a good state of cultivation and a drug store, which he has acquired by his own industry.  He was married July 17, 1864, to Sarah J.  Wilson of Ballard County, Ky., a daughter of Rutledge and Elizabeth (Holman) Wilson, natives of Livingston and Butler Counties, Ky. Respectively, of Dutch  descent. Samuel Wilson located in the Purchase in 1820; William Holman in 1823;  both settled in Ballard County. To Dr. and Mrs. Paschall eight children were  born, viz.: Mary B., Sarah A. May F., Demitra A., Newton J., Ed C., Jesse R. and  Lola A. Mrs. Paschall and eldest daughter are members of the Methodist Episcopal  Church. Dr Paschall has been trustee of Fulton several terms. He is a member of  the I.O.O.F. in Fulton, also a charter members of the K. of H.

Joseph Paschall (ID= B24), was the son of Thomas Paschall and Margaret Griffith Jenkins, and grandson of Thomas Paschall and Joanna Sloper.  Joseph was born on 23 March 1699 in Philadelphia, PA, and died on 26 December 1741 in Philadelphia[i].  Joseph belonged to one of the oldest Quaker families in Philadelphia county.  Both of his parents came to Pennsylvania in their youth with their parents, early in 1682, his father Thomas from Bristol, England, and his mother Margaret from Tenby, Penbrokeshire, Wales[ii].

Joseph married Elizabeth Coates on 28 Apr 1721 at the Darby Monthly Meeting in Chester, Pennsylvania[iii].  Elizabeth, the daughter of Thomas Coates and Beulah Jaques, was born on 12 March 1702 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and died on 10 April 1767 in Philadelphia.  Joseph and Elizabeth had nine children: Joseph, Sarah, Isaac, Mary, Thomas, Beulah, Elizabeth, James, and Joseph.  Only Isaac, Beulah, and the youngest Joseph survived infancy.  Their son Isaac was the only child to marry, and he had two daughters, Elizabeth Coates Paschall and Sarah Paschall[iv].

Elizabeth was educated and introduced to entrepreneurship at a early age by both her mother and her father.  Her mother, Beulah, was a literary lady and educated Elizabeth at home.  She not only taught her the fundamentals of reading, writing, and arithmetic, she also taught her healing knowledge and remedies.  Elizabeth had a religiously inclined, educated, medically adept, and assertive mother as a role model[v].

Her father, Thomas, engaged in mercantile affairs on a considerable scale in Philadelphia.  He was a shipping merchant to and from foreign ports, and supplied planters and smaller dealers with the necessary staple merchandise.  He imported large quantities of goods from England, Barbados, and West Indies.  As was the custom of the well-to-do residents of Colonial Philadelphia, in addition to his town residence, he had a “county seat” at Frankford.  In 1714, he purchased several hundred acres of land, where he and his family would spend a portion of the summer months.  Thomas died in 1719, leaving a house on the north side of High Street in Philadelphia, along with all the back lots to Elizabeth[vi].

When Joseph and Elizabeth married in 1721, they took up residence in the house on High Street, later known as Market Street.  Joseph, became a prominent business man, owning a large dry goods store.  He was elected to the Common Council of the City of Philadelphia in October, 1732, and held the seat until his death in 1741.  He was also the founder of the first Volunteer Fire Company in Philadelphia, with his name heading the list of the twenty men who started the first Fire Engine Company on December 7, 1736, of whom Dr. Benjamin Franklin was one[vii].  Joseph conducted business with Dr. Franklin by purchasing schoolbooks for their son Isaac at Franklin’s shop.  “Franklin’s ledger D, page 58 records “Cordery for Isaac,” “Erasmus for Do,” a “Dutch grammar” and other texts “for Isaac.”[viii].

After Joseph died, Elizabeth continued with the dry goods business.  In addition to being a mother and a shopkeeper, she also practiced medicine.  She proudly recorded many medical recipes and “my own Invention”.  She discussed the efficacy and safety of drugs with a wide range of people, including doctors, botanists, apothecaries, midwives, relatives, friends, servants, and customers in her effort to discover the best cures[ix].

Elizabeth’s “Receipt Book” was photocopied by the Historical Collection of the College of Physicians of Philadelphia, and can be viewed online at  https://www.chstm.org/web_of_healing/archives/CP/paschall.html

In 1746, Elizabeth took out an notice in the Pennsylvania Gazette … “Elizabeth Paschall, Shopkeeper, in Market Street, intending to take down and re-build the house she now lives in, and remove for the space of 3 months to the house where Robert Jordan formerly lived in Strawberry Alley; will continue to sell all sorts of Merchant’s Goods as usual.  All persons indebted to the estate of her deceased husband, Joseph Paschall, are desired to pay their respective debts, or she must proceed against them, as the Law directs.”

The Pennsylvania Gazette (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania), Sunday, 5 June 1746, Page 3

After renovating the Market Street property, the store was on the main floor and their residence was upstairs.  Elizabeth desired a “county seat” to retreat from city life.  She purchased thirteen acres of land from her brother, Samuel Coates.  The land was previously part of her father’s Frankford property.  In 1748, she began construction on a country house of native grey stone, in which she named “Cedar Grove”.   The construction was completed in 1750[x].

The original house consisted of two rooms on the first floor, the present dining room and the room back of it, two rooms on the second, and the attic space above.  The house was exceedingly small, but a rural house was not meant for a dwelling house.  It was designed to be used merely as a shelter for rest and refreshment when the owner or any member of the family might be spending the day at the farm.  Elizabeth and the children could spend time between the two houses.  The Market Street house and Cedar Grove were only five miles apart [xi].

Upon Elizabeth’s death, Isaac and Joseph liquidated her stock in the store with an advertisement in The Pennsylvania Chronicle.  Cedar Grove was passed to her unmarried daughter Beulah, who, upon her death, passed it to her niece, Sarah Paschall Morris.

Additions to the house were made by Beulah Paschall and succeeding generations. Sarah Paschall Morris doubled the size of Cedar Grove with more rooms and a third floor. A wraparound porch was added later. Various architectural styles such as Baroque, Rococo, and Federal are evident in the interior rooms.

Lydia Thompson Morris, the last of the family to own Cedar Grove, gave the house and original furniture to the City of Philadelphia in 1926. The house was originally located within the present day Frankford neighborhood of Northeast Philadelphia, about 4 miles from the colonial-era city limits. The house was moved from Frankford to Fairmount Park in 1926–28. The Philadelphia Museum of Art administers the house and has kept it fully furnished with period furniture passed down by generations of the Paschall/Morris family. Guided tours of the house are available through the Art Museum.  Cedar Grove is registered on the Philadelphia Register of Historic Places and is an inventoried structure within the Fairmount Park Historic District entry on the National Register of Historic Places[xii].

Elizabeth Coates Paschall was a remarkable woman with a remarkable life.  She was educated in business and medicine.  She suffered great sorrow with the death of her six children.  When her husband died she continued the business and was a respected shopkeeper.  She taught the business to her sons, Joseph and Isaac, who were partners in the Philadelphia store called The Sign of the Red Hand-saw[xiii].  Elizabeth not only leaves her mark in time with the “Receipt Book” and Cedar Grove, but with her many descendants as well.

God Bless the Paschal-Paschall Family

William Paschal was married three times.  His first two wives were sisters Reliance and Elizabeth Dennes, with whom 99% of us descend from.  The sisters were the daughters of Samuel Dennes and Mary Crowell, his step sister.  Samuel was the son of Samuel Dennes and the widow Mary Lothrop Crowell. ¹ [Further documents are needed for the clarification on the two Samuel Dennes’ and Mary Crowell’s.]

Mary Crowell was the daughter of Edward Crowell and Mary Lothrop. ^2,3 Mary Lothrop was the daughter of Captain Joseph Lothrop & Mary Ansell, and granddaughter of Rev. John Lothrop & Hannah House. ⁴

Barbara Fleming has done extensive research on the Lothrop family, taking our line back to Walter Lawthrop born ca 1355.  (Barbara Fleming, 3245 Chadbourne Road, Shaker Heights, OH 44120, barbpretz@sbcglobal.net).  Her work is posted on https://sites.rootsweb.com/~barbpretz/ps06/ps06_074.htm  Barbara’s research on Rev. John Lothrop is quite impressive.  Here is just a smidgeon of what she has gathered about his fascinating life …

Rev. John Lothrop was baptized in 1584 in Etton, Yorkshire, England, died in 1653 in Barnstable, Massachusetts, and was buried in the Lothrop Hill Cemetery.  He graduated at Queens’ College, Cambridge with a Bachelor of Arts in 1605, and a Master of Arts in 1609.  He was the Vicar of Egerton, Kent, England in 1611-1623. He moved to Union Street, Southwark  in London in 1624, where he become the pastor of Henry Jacob’s Independent Congregational church.  Since independent worship from the Church of England was illegal, Lothrop’s services were conducted in secret. He was discovered, and in 1632, he and 43 church members were imprisoned.  Upon promising to leave the country they were released.  Rev. Lothrop and his family came to New England on the ship Griffin in 1634, and shortly afterwards organized a church in Scituate, Plymouth Co., Massachusetts. He was admitted a freeman of Plymouth colony, 1636-37.  Two years later he removed, with a large part of the membership of his church, to Barnstable, Massachusetts, where he held the first communion upon their  arrival.

“One of the remarkable things about John Lothrop, and the highest tribute to his character as a minister, was the way in which his congregation followed him throughout his wanderings. Many members of his original Kent and London gathering were with him in Scituate and accompanied him to Barnstable. History shows few more perfect examples of the shepherd and his flock.”  http://www.sturgislibrary.org/history/history-of-the-library/

A must read article about Rev. John, giving details about his life:  “The Roots of the Ancient Congregational Church in London, Scituate, and Barnstable, Rev. John Lothropp, Minister”, by Dan R. McConnell, 31 Ellens Way, Harwich, MA, 02645. (Published by the Cape Cod Genealogical Society Bulletin, Fall 2008)  http://www.sturgislibrary.org/pdf/roots_ancient_congregational_church.pdf

The Queen’s College Cambridge, founded 1341, by Robert de Eglesfield, chaplain to Queen Philippa of Hainault (the wife of King Edward III of England); hence its name.  Rev. John Lothrop matriculated in 1601, graduated with a BA in 1605, and with an MA in 1609. He was an English Anglican clergyman and dissident, who became a Congregationalist minister and emigrant to New England.  He was the founder of Barnstable, Massachusetts.  John’s brother Thomas was also admitted to Queen’s College in 1601 and received his Bachelor’s degree in 1604. https://enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/85827

Rev. John would had received this Bible, published in 1605, as a graduation present from Queens’ College in Cambridge, England when he received his Bachelor of Arts.  Apparently, aboard the ship the Griffin, which brought many of the Lothrop congregation to New England, the Reverend accidently spilled hot candle wax on his Bible during evening prayer. The hot wax burned through several pages. However, Lothrop repaired each burned section, re-writing the damaged passages from memory.  http://wickedyankee.blogspot.com/2012/03/lothrop-bible-and-sturgis-library.html

“More than 100 people crammed inside the Sturgis Library in West Barnstable yesterday to rededicate the Rev. John Lothrop’s 404-year-old Bible.  The book, which Lothrop used to found Scituate’s first church then another church in Barnstable five years later, is now encased in a museum-quality microclimate glass display case, thanks to a $3,000 grant.”  Article by Aaron Gouveia, 11 Oct 2009, Cape Cod Times  http://(https://www.capecodtimes.com/article/20091011/NEWS/910110325)

The First Parish Unitarian Universalist Church of Scituate, Plymouth Co., MA is over 380 years old. https://www.findagrave.com/cemetery/91222/men-of-kent-cemetery#view-photo=882440

A small log cabin on Meeting House Lane served as the first church. The site is marked today by a monument that lists the early members of the parish, “The Men of Kent,” and by gravestones from the 17th century.  The Men of Kent Cemetery is Scituate’s oldest and most historically significant cemetery.  It was established in 1624, and the earliest legible gravestone is from 1694. Most of the slate markers are still in good condition.  http://www.firstparishscituate.org/history-of-first-parish.htm https://www.findagrave.com/cemetery/91222/men-of-kent-cemetery

Sacrament Rock – Marker Commemorating the First Communion held at Barnstable upon the Rev. John Lothrop’s arrival.  The marker has been rebuilt out of fragments of the boulder that stood at the location of one of the first religious services.   The pewter communion service that was used (brought by Rev. Lothrop from England in 1634) is still in existence.  It was used monthly at the West Parish Church until 1993, when deterioration led it to be removed from use and put into safe keeping.  https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/7518784/john-lothrop

Constructed in 1644 for the Rev.  John Lothrop, founder of Barnstable, the house which forms the original part of the Library is the oldest Library building in the United States. The building is also one of the oldest houses remaining on Cape Cod. Since Rev. Lothrop used the front room of the house for public worship, another distinction of the Sturgis Library is that it is the oldest structure still standing in America where religious services were regularly held. This room, now called “The Lothrop Room,” with its beamed ceiling and pumpkin-colored wide-board floors, retains the quintessential early character of authentic Cape Cod houses. Rev. Lothrop’s bible, with handwritten repairs to the pages, is on display in this room.  On 25 Feb. 1782, William Sturgis, a direct descendant of Rev. Lothrop, was born in this house.  Photo by C J Gunther.  http://www.sturgislibrary.org/history/history-of-the-library/

Tombstone of Capt. Joseph Lothrop, Son of Rev. John Lothrop, and great grandfather of Reliance and Elizabeth Dennes Paschall.  Born 11 April 1624 in the Greater London, England, died 11 December 1702 in Barnstable, Barnstable Co., MA, and was buried in the Lothrop Hill Cemetery in Barnstable, Barnstable Co., MA.  https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/34365543/joseph-lothrop

“Captain Joseph, born in 1624, married Mary Ansell, 11 Dec 1650.  He settled in Barnstable, was made freeman 8 June 1655, was selectman of the town 21 years, and its Deputy to the General Court of Massachusetts 15 years.  He was Registrar of the County Probate Court and was Constable, Lieutenant and Captain.  History speaks of him as a “Conspicuous member of the Council of war” in 1676.  He and his brother Barnabas were commissioned to hold select courts in Barnstable in 1679.  In the inventory of the estate of Joseph Lothrop are reported 27 volumes of law books and 43 volumes of classic and sermon books.”⁵

This portrait has been mistaken to be the portrait of Rev. John Lothrop, (1584-1653), the original American ancestor.  It is in fact the portrait of Rev. John Lothrop, (1740-1816), the great-great grandson of Rev. John.  The younger Rev. John served as minister of the Second Church, Boston, 1768-1816, when it was located in the North End—first on North Square, and after 1779, on Hanover Street.  In 1776, during the British occupation of Boston, the Second Church was burnt for firewood by British soldiers.  Lathrop was considered a patriot.  He was the second cousin twice removed of Reliance and Elizabeth Dennes Paschal. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Lathrop_(American_minister)
