Most believe the Boseman or Bozeman families came from
Holland and this we may never know. Edword Bozeman was found in the
1790 census of Baltimore, Maryland; John in Talbot, MD; Lawrence
Bouseman in Baltimore. Some served in the American Revolution and
received a pension along with grants of land, for instance, the
South Carolina Archives lists some as Gabriel, John, Paul, Jesse,
Ralph, James, Mordecai and probably more with different spellings of
our last name. Of course it would be nice to learn more about
Mordecai even his middle name and if he was the son of Samuel Edward
Bozeman and Mary White, after all, her brother was named Mordecai
and the name Edward has continued over many centuries.
So
many names were Biblical yet then we find another set of Bozemans
named Ralph, Fred, George, and Lewis. Names were so very special,
most often, after another dearly loved family member.
These
families were farmers and many had well educated, successful
careers, mostly throughout the South, as they explored each new
territory as it became available.
Reverend Bozeman did a
marvelous job writing his "Sketches of the Bozeman Family" in 1885
and a couple of pages were scanned to share indicating the
whereabouts of Mordecai. He does not say anything about Mordecai
being a fatality of the Revolution so we can only assume that he
died later from natural causes, and hopefully that information will
come to light soon.
The 1810 census of Darlington SC shows
only four Bosemans, John, James, Peter and Chapman. 1800 shows a
Thomas living in Somerset NC. The name Thomas is carried on through
the next century.
* From 1798 to 1819, a steady influx of
Europeans into Alabama settled on land formerly occupied by several
Native American tribes. Alabama became a part of the Mississippi
Territory in 1798 after Indian cessions in north Alabama. Migration
increased after the end of the Creek War in 1814. In 1817, the
Alabama Territory was created, and Alabama became the 22nd in
December 1819. PETER BOZEMAN was in Alabama on the 1830
census.
