(1) LUTHER HITCHCOCK, son of MOSES HITCHCOCK and BETHIA.  He was born July 14, 1760 in Brimfield, Hampden Co., Massachusetts, and died November 12, 1781.  She married (2) REUBEN SHUMWAY November 23, 1784, son of NATHAN SHUMWAY and JUDITH WHITNEY.  He was born December 28, 1759 in Belchertown, Massachusetts, and died December 20, 1827.  Burial: Lyon Cemetery, Tuscarora twp., Bradford Co., Pennsylvania.  M. Int. Sturbridge, MA, Miriam Towne and Luther Hitchcock of Brimfield, Mary. 27, 1780. No marriage record is found.
"The Massachusetts Soldiers and Sailors in the War of the Revolution, Volume 7, page 965, has the complete military service of Luther Hitchcock of Brimfield. He enlisted in the military in 1775 and served almost yearly until his death 12 Nov. 1781. The last entries on his record read:  '...wages allowed said Hitchcock from Oct. 1, 1781 to Nov. 12, 1781...also reported died Nov. 12, 1781; also Certificate dated Brimfield Nov. 23, 1784, signed by the Selectmen of the town of Brimfield, stating that his mother Mrs. Bethiah Hitchcock of Brimfield was the proper heir to the estate of the said Luther Hitchcock, deceased.'
This town of Brimfield proceeding needs to be examined. It will hopefully prove that the marriage never occured of before the date of November 23, 1784, that Miriam was remarried to Reuben Shumway.
In The Settler, Quarterly Magazine of History and Biograpy for Bradford County, Pennsylvania, (Nov. 1974, p. 32) is found:
'We cine ti Reuben Shumway who first owned Shumhurst Farm. He was born Dec. 28, 1759 in Belchertown, Massachusetts [to Nathan Shumway and Judith Whitney]. At an early age he enlisted in the Revolution and served throughout most of the war. He was engaged in many of the principal battles and was with Washington at Valley Forge in 1777. The official record is that he enlisted five times for periods from three months to one and one and a half years.' 'After the war ended he returned to Belchertown and married Mariam Towne, about 1785. Soon thereafter they moved to Steuben Co., N.Y., where their eight children were born. In 1801, they came to Pennsylvania and settled on Wyslusing creek, once the residence of the widow Buck." (About Towne Vol. XXII, No. 4, December 2002)
"Reuben Shumway came into Tuscarora in 1805. He came from Steuben Co., N.Y. in 1801...His wife was Miriam Town, a sister of Joseph C. Town [already in Bradford County]. She died in 1819 and was the first person buried in the burying ground near Mr. Lyon's. She is spoken of as a very excellent woman." (About Towne Vol. XXII, No. 4, December 2002)
"Benjamin Hurlburt moved from Elizabeth City, N.J. to the Wyalusing Creek in 1803. He was a miller and was employed in Gordon's and later in [Joseph] Town's mill. Daugher Esther married Sylvanus Shumway and daughter Catherine married Darius Shumway, Reuben's sons." (About Towne Vol. XXII, No. 4, December 2002)

409.  JOSEPH CURTIS7 TOWNE (BENJAMIN6, BENJAMIN5, JOSEPH4, EDMUND3, WILLIAM2, JOHN1) was born September 16, 1760 in Sturbridge, Worcester Co., Massachusetts, and died August 1813 in ?, War of 1812, of Ohio.  He married MARY SLOCUM Bet. 1786 - 1787, daughter of JONATHAN SLOCUM and RUTH TRIPP.  She died April 05, 1844 in Chillicothe, Ohio.
"Joseph Towne, Sturbridge, enlisted at the age of 19 for a 6-month period agreeable to the resolve of June 5, 1780, and was discharged on December 19, 1780. On October 25, 1780 he was on a return from Camp Totoway. Also at this camp were Reuben Shumway and another Joseph Towne both of Belchertown. That Joseph was married on Nov. 10, 1785 at Fort Ann, Washington Co., N.Y. to Hannah Coleman.
After Reuben married his sister, Miriam, Joseph probably accompanied them on the move to Steuben Co., N.Y., and then followed the Tioga and Susquehanna rivers south into Wyoming Valley, Luzerne Co., Connecticut (now Pennsylvania), where he began farming. Around 1787, he married Mary Slocum, daughter of Jonathan and Ruth (Tripp) Slocum. A Slocum history says that Joseph at that time, was a neighboring farmer. Wyoming Valley was the scene of the 'Wyoming Massacre' in August 1778 when Mary's 5yr. old sister, Frances, was kidnapped; and her father was killed in December 1778.
Around 1788, they had a daughter, and in the 1790 census on p. 150, Luzerne Co., Joseph, his wife and daughter apparently were living with the widowed Ruth Slocum and three of her teenaged sons. In 1793, Joseph C. Towne, came from Wyoming Valley to French Asylum on the Wyalusing river. A carpenter, he was to build houses for the French.
The History of Bradford Co., Pennsylvania, by David Craft, L.H. Everts & Co., Philadelphia, 1878, p. 445 says:
'Samuel Gordon, who in 1793, built his mill near the site of the present Lewis Mill, on the Wyalusing, finished the mill on 1 May 1795. Soon after the completion of the grist mill, Joseph C. Town, a carpenter by trade, came to the area and put up a sawmill on the creek, near where Mrs. Hiram Buck now lives. In 1798, Mr. Town erected a grist-mill at the same place, of superior construction to that of Mr. Gordon's and containing a bolt for making flour. Mr. Town had earlier married about 1786 in Wyoming Valley to Mary Slocum, sister of Frances Slocum, raised in captivity by the Indians.' Most of the Slocum family had followed Joseph here, and on 6 Aug., 1799, Joseph Curtis Town paid Ebenezer Slocum one hundred and fifty pounds for some property in Wyalusing Township, still in the state of Connecticut.
By the time of the 1800 census in Bradford Co., p. 365, Joseph and Mary Town had two sons under 10, four daughters under 10, and one daughter 11 or 12.
In 1808, they left Bradford Co. for Jackson Township, Pickaway Co., Ohio where Joseph located his land grant on the Pickaway Plains, south of Circleville. Later he purchased land on the east side of Carr's Ford Pike in Madison Twp., on the north bank of the Rattlesnack. Later the court ordered that 'a License be issued to Joseph C. Towne to keep a house of Public Entertainment at his dwelling in Wayne Township for one year upon his performing requirements of the law.'
Joseph is reported to have died in the War of 1812 in Aug. 1813, probably in Capt. Horsey's Co. of Wayne Twp., Pickaway Co. soldiers, at Ft. Stephenson on the Sandusky river. The Index to Ohio Wills, Estate, and Guardianships until 1850, has two records that indicated a Joseph and a Joseph C. Towne (probably the same person) had papers probated in regard to his estate in 1814 in Pickaway County. In the 1820 census, Mary lived in Jackson Twp., Pickaway Co. (p. 177) with four unmarried sons. Next door lived son Giles, with his wife." (About Towne Vol. XXII, No. 4, December 2002)

"The following obituary appeared in 'The Examiner,' of Washington Co., Pennsylvania on Monday, June 24, 1822;
Communicated
Departed this life, on Tuesday, the 18th Inst. Of a lingering illness, which he bore with resignation becoming a Christian, Eli Towne, int the 66th year of his age---. He was a native of Massachusetts, and made a profession of religion in the early part of his life---. He entered the service of his country in 1776 and served two years.
He was with the troops under General Gates, at the taking of Burgoyne---was with those who went to Lower Montreal. After the American troops had evacuated this place and the British troops had entered, he and two or three more were sent across the river again, with a barge to assist in bringing away the guard. It was dark, and when they came to the entrance of the city, it was crowded with people who were provided with lanterns and torches; when they saw these Bostonians, as they were called, they surrounded them, and would have taken them, had they not been rescued by a French gentleman, who persuaded the enemy not to lay hands on them. He led them out of the city and assisted them to depart, giving them a bottle of rum. In crossing the river again, they stove their boat on the rocks, and were nigh perishing, but finally reached the American side in a distressed situation.
Many interesting circumstances of his life, while in the service of his country might be added; but who is he that does not revere the memory of those who were made instruments in the hands of Divine Providence to gain the liberties and privileges which we as a nation now enjoy? A few more years, and all the revolutionary patriots will have gone the way of all the earth; but their memorial will live in the hearts of all true Americans.
Having set his house in order, not wishing to live longer, undaunted he met the approach the death, and died with a full assurance of a glorious immortality." (About Towne Vol. XIX, No. 4, December 1999)

For some years he was principal of an academy. (See E.E. Towne's book the Descendant's of William Towne, page 70, for more details.)
"Salem Towne, b. 1779....resided at Granville and Aurora, NY, was graduated 1805 from Middlebury College (VT), was a clergyman, doctor of laws, an able writer on educational subjects, author of "Towne's Speller" and "Towne's Analysis", two favorite textbooks, a prominent Freemason."   (History of Oxford - page  721)
"Salem Town Honored as Teacher and Writer (from 'Who's Who Teaching,' p. 1304-5)"
"....Salem Town moved from Massachusetts to New York where he was principal of Granville (N.Y.) Academy (1807-22). He moved to Powelton, Georgia, in 1822, where he was principal of the Powelton Academy for a few years before he returned to Granville. He was reported to have enjoyed great success in Georgia where his students outnumbered the citizens of the town, and his academy attracted boarders who lived too far to commute to the school.
Town was principal of the Cayuga Academy in Aurora, N.Y. from 1820-1835, when he retired as principal because of ill health. He continued at the academy as a teacher of philology and lecturer on ancient and modern history and on the origin and progress of the arts and sciences. He retired from the academy in 1850.
Town wrote important schoolbooks, including, 'An Analysis of Derivative Words in the English Language' (1830) and 'Town's Spelling Book" (1839) (two of the first works of this kind ever printed in the English Language); 'Town's Spelling and Defining Book' (1839); 'The Grammar School Reader' (1850) and 'The Town's Reader Series' (1844-55); 'The Progressive Reader Series' was published in 1856 under the names of Salem Town and Nelson M. Holbrook. It seemed to be written primarily by Holbrook. 'The Pronouncing Pictorial Primer' was published under Town's name in 1866, two years after his death. An active member of the Masonic order, he wrote 'A System of Speculative Memory' (1818).
He was credited with serving as the chief instructor at the first teacher's institute in the United States held in Ithaca, N.Y. in April 1843. He served as a member of the New York State Senate." (About Towne Vol II, No. 2, June 2000)
