Correlation of Individuals enumerated in the 1730 South Kingstown, RI Census to Wikitree profile identities.

By Randolph R. Beebe © January 2022

Introduction

The following study was inspired by the Wikitree profile I wrote for William Tanner Sr. (abt.1657-abt.1740) in September and October of 2019. In the course of researching and writing that profile, I encountered a number of documents with a scope which included William Tanner, but were much broader and included information on South Kingstown and beyond. I have contemplated what might be learned from an in-depth study of these documents. This paper is a result of that effort and examines the these documents for intersecting information within their data sets. The overall objective of this study is then to to link the identities in the documents to Wikitree identities, to examine the interconnectedness of the individuals in the community defined by the documents, and finally to use the information in these documents to add to the information content in the Wikitree database.

1730 South Kingstown, RI Census

The foundational data set is the 1730 South Kingstown, RI census published in 1984, by Jane Fletcher Fiske in an article in the Rhode Island Roots, Vol 10, No. 1, [1] in which she discloses the contents of a photocopy of the 1730 Rhode Island Census for South Kingstown which had recently been discovered at the Wakefield, RI Town Hall. She notes that this document is one of only two surviving copies of the 1730 RI census (the other is for Portsmouth) and the all the original documents appear to have been lost or destroyed as no one, including her own effort, has been able to locate the original records. This particular census enumeration includes a total of 542 residents, representing 35.6% of the total population officially reported in the 1730 South Kingstown census, hence represents a subset of the 1730 South Kingstown census. The exact geographic boundaries included in this enumeration subset are unknown, but the inclusion of the owners of the Hall Purchase, establishes, with absolute certainty, that the census included the rural area in the Northwest corner of the town on the east side of the Usquepaug River.

1730 Census Enumeration Subset with Correlated Wikitree Profiles

The objective of this essay is to make a critical examination of the information in this article and first, to make a best effort to correlate the identities found in this 1730 South Kingstown, RI census subset with a corresponding Wikitree identity; second, to identify and cite relational links between the families enumerated in this 1730 census document, and finally, to use this information to improve the quality of the existing Wikitree database both in breadth and depth.

Syntax

The following syntax will be used for the following tabulation:

  • From the 1730 census document: W = White person; B = Black person; N = Negro
  • -X = No corresponding Wikitree identity was found in the Wikitree database at the time this article was written. A new profile has been created to complete the correlation.
  • {text} is added editorial comment not fount in the original census
  • Underlined green text is a hot link, generally to the correlated Wikitree profile.
  • Surname variants: the following spelling variations of surnames of the various citizens are used interchangeably in the various document, often within the same document:
    • Gardiner = Gardner
    • Haszard = Hazard
    • Shearman = Sherman
    • Cass = Case
    • Reynolds = Renolds
    • Tibets = Tibbetts = Tibbitts
    • Helm = Helms = Helme
    • Babcock = Badcock

As might be expected in an era of limited mobility, this small community of citizens is highly connected by intermarriage of the families.

The Hall Purchase or Westerly Manor

The second data set is the 31 July 1711 deposition by given Joseph Duvall, as part of a legal dispute between Job Tanner and John Knight. Joseph Duvall was the land surveyor who was hired by the Henry Hall and the Knights to plat the land for resale. In this depostion, Joseph Duvall defines the original 1693 owners of a two square mile subset, of the 57 square miles of land modern-day South Kingstown, known as the Hall purchase or Westerly Manor, as an interesting side note, observe that the name "Westerly Manor" Henry Hall selected to identify the development, reveals that he considered the property (in 1693) to be associated with Westerly rather than Kingstown. The study will examine the data in attempt to bridge the chain of ownership from the original sale in 1693 to the residents enumerated in the 1730 Census. [2]

The third dataset is a pamphlet published by the Seventh Day Baptist Church which provides a listing of the charter and early members of the church; [3]

A Note on Slavery in 1730 Rhode Island

It is impossible to read this document and not be impressed with the extent slavery had permeated the 1730 culture of South Kingstown, and the gravity of the subject warrants a comment. This 1730 census shows that the South Kingstown, Rhode Island community enumerated in this subset of the census consisted of a total of 62 households forming a population of 422 Whites, 43 Blacks, and 77 Negroes, for a total of 542 residents. The census enumeration clearly differentiates between free and slave, and provides a snapshot of the extent of the practice of slavery at South Kingstown in 1730, having 22% of the enumerated population enslaved, and that fully 52% of the households are documented to have participated in the practice of slavery. Furthermore, this census also provides an enumeration differentiation between a "Black" and a "Negroe" with no clarification with regard to the definition of these terms. Perhaps the term "Black" may have also included enslaved Native Americans, but it is more likely the terms differentiated between slaves born into slavery in North America and those born free in Africa. Certainly an enslaving society had more to fear from those who had been born free in a radically different culture, than those who had been born into the mainstream culture and indoctrinated from birth as to their servant social status and this distinction would be important information for the government to gather in order to assess the probability, and magnitude of a potential revolt.

The Colony of Rhode Island was conceived and birthed on the foundation of offering free practice of religion to its citizens, and consequently many modern day historians have been quick to judge these colonists as barbaric, evil hypocrites, who while in their pursuit of the free practice of religion for themselves were at the same time denying any freedoms to an unprotected and defenseless class of people solely for their own personal benefit. It is easy for the modern day observer to be smug and to presume an air of moral superiority, having the vantage point of living at a time 158 years after the abolition of slavery in this country; while these colonists lived at a time when the practice of slavery was both a legal and a generally accepted social norm, that is to say "everybody was doing it" as is evidenced by the 52% participation rate documented in this census. This is a bold reminder to the modern observer that just because a certain practice is both legal and generally accepted does not exempt it from being morally repugnant; our modern day society is certain to be viewed by smug historians 158 years from now as barbaric and evil hypocrites for our own morally repugnant practice of the pursuit of our own personal freedom while at the same time denying all freedoms to an unprotected and defenseless class of people solely for our own personal and economic benefit. Systemic evil is evil regardless of whether it is called slavery or abortion. “History Doesn’t Repeat Itself, but It Often Rhymes” – Mark Twain
