Abrahams, brother-in-law of Jacob Louzada, son and heir of Moses
Louzada, late of Middlesex Co., merchant, by his petiton stated that
the said Moses Louzada died intestate in 1755, leaving Hannah, his
widow, and several children, and that Hannah took out letters of
administration, and that Moses had estate in Somerset and Middle-
sex counties, which descended to the said Jacob Louzada as being
the eldest son and heir, and that Jacob for several years has been a
lunatic, and that he may be appointed guardian of the said Jacob
while he is of unsound mind; therefore the said Abraham Abrahams,
of New York, Robert Sproull, and David Gosling, of Perth Amboy,
go on a bond, wherein said Abraham Abrahams is made guardian as
aforesaid.

eral children, and that Hannah Louzada, the widow of said Moses,

Middlesex and Somerset counties, which descended to Jacob Louzada,
the eldest son and heir, and that Jacob Louzada has for several
years been a lunatic; that the petitioner's wife is the daughter of
said Moses Louzada, and sister of said Jacob; therefore he prays
to be made Guardian of said Jacob Louzada.

appointed guardian of said Jacob, which letters were granted with-
out inquisition taken, and not in due manner, and Jacob, who is now
of age, has applied that the letters may be made void, and that he
may take possession of his own property, therefore the letters are
made void. Lib. H, pp. 134, 332.

1764, Feb. 24. It appearing that Letters of Guardianship were
granted without inquisition, and not in due form, and Jacob Louzada,

voked and made void. Lib. H, p. 134; Lib. H, p. 332.

NOTE - The Richard Dotson household enumerated in the 1840 Census, and possibly also the 1830 Census, was likely located in present-day Doddridge County, which did not exist at that time. Doddridge County was formed from parts of Tyler, Harrison, Lewis and Ritchie counties on 4 February 1845.

1850 Census, Doddridge County, Virginia (now West Virginia), enumerated on July 27, 1850:
Richard Dotson, 56, farmer, cannot read/write; Margaret, 55, cannot read/write; Francis M. (male), 15, farmer. All born in Virginia.
NOTE - The next enumerated household was that of Richard and Margaret's daughter Drusilla Juda [Judy], her husband Jacob and their son Luther. Another nearby household was that of Richard's brother Zachariah and his family.

1860 Census, Doddridge County, Virginia (now West Virginia), enumerated on July 19, 1860:
Richard Dotson, 68, laborer, value of real estated (blank), value of personal estate $25; Margaret, 67.
NOTE - The next enumerated household was that of Milly Dotson and her four children:
Milly Dotson, 46; Haseline, 13; Milly, 8; Victoria, 5; John C, 17. All born in Virginia.

1870 Census, Doddridge Co, WV (Central Township), enumerated on June 30, 1870:
Richard Dotson, 76, common laborer, cannot read/write; Millie, 57, cannot read/write; Victoria, 15. 
Family: Richard DOTSON, Jr. / Margaret WHITE (F11796)
 
482 1830 Census, Harrison County (Western District), Virginia (now West Virginia):
George Willard - head of household
1 male 20-29 George Willard (age discrepancy)
1 female under 5 Margaret Willard (born 1827)
1 female 5-9 Unidentified daughter *
1 female 30-39 Sudna Lowther Willard (born 1792)

* It has been postulated that Sudna Lowther may have had a child prior to her 1827 marriage to George Willard, which would account for the older daughter in this enumeration. Circumstantially, it is quite possible that the unidentified daughter is Rulina Lowther, b. 1825 in Harrison County, who married Eli Morris Gaston in 1846. In July 2020, DNA testing showed a 4th-to-6th cousin relationship between the 6th-great-granddaughter of Col. William Lowther (b. 1742, grandfather of Sudna) and the 3rd-great-grandson of Rulina Lowther, whose parentage at that time was not known. Placing Rulina Lowther as the daughter of Sudna, the actual relationship is as predicted by the DNA testing, 6th cousins once removed.

After her husband's early death, Sudna Lowther Willard moved to Ritchie County and lived with her parents. She and her three Willard daughters are accounted for in the 1840 Census of Williams Lowther's household, and older daughter Rulina Lowther is likely also in the census of that household.

1850 Census, Ritchie Co, Virginia (now West Virginia), enumerated on Sep 5 1850:
Sudna Willard, 58; Margaret E, 23; Charlotte, 16.

In 1860 and 1870, Sudna Willard was in the household of her daughter, Rebecca (Willard) Brown, in Ritchie County. 
Family: George WILLARD / Sudna LOWTHER (F12291)

ENGLAND, John (I112853)
 
487 1840 Census, Burlington, Otsego Co, New York:
Household of Ammi T. Brown
1 male age 40-50 (i.e., Ammi T. Brown, who we know from his birth record was born in 1799)
1 male age 10-15 (i.e., son Ammi A. Brown, b. 1829)
1 male age 5-10 (i.e., son Andrew Brown, who we know from the 1900 Census was born Sep 1834)
1 female age 40-50 (i.e., wife Annis Brown, who we know from the 1850 Census was born about 1801)
NOTE: Daughter Julia, b. 1831, is not accounted for.

1850 Census, Pittsfield, Otsego Co, New York, enumerated on Sep 6 1850:
Amina Brown, male, 50, b. Connecticut, occup house joiner; Annis Brown, female, 49, b. New York; Andrew Brown, male, 15, b. New York, farmer.

1870 Census, town of Guilford, Chenango Co, NY:
Ami Brown, 39, b. Massachusetts, occup house carpenter; Almira Brown, 28, b. New York; Edwin Brown, 11, b. Wisconsin; Ami Brown, female, 71, b. Connecticut, occup carpenter & joiner.
Ami is clearly a misspelling of Ammi, and labeling the elder Ami (Ammi) a female is considered to be a clerical error, especially in view of the listed occupation.

No record of this Ammi Brown was found in any 1860 or 1880 Census.

The 1830 Census of Adams, Berkshire County, Massachusetts, had the following entry:
Household of Arnum Brown
1 male age 30-40
1 male under 5
2 females age 20-30
1 female under 5
Despite the name variance, the handwriting is not entirely clear, and the possibility cannot be discounted that this is the household of Ammi T. Brown.

"Gazetteer and Business Directory of Chenango County, N.Y. for 1869-70," compiled & published by Hamilton Child in 1869, p. 205, has the following consecutive entries for the town of New Berlin, showing that father and son were in the same line of work:
"BROWN, AMMI A., (South New Berlin), carpenter and joiner.
Brown, Ammi T., (South New Berlin), lot 41, T. 16, house joiner and farmer."
The preface to the publication states "Name set in CAPITALS indicates subscribers to this work." It also states "Post Office Addresses in Parentheses" and explains that "T." stands for Township.
http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~nychenan/69nbrlin.htm

A similar publication five years later, "Boyd's Elmira and Corning Directory" for 1874-75, published by Andrew Boyd and W. Harry Boyd, contains the following entry on page 58: "Brown Ammi A., carpenter, h 258 W Hudson." The key to abbreviations indicates that the "h" stands for house.
Since there was no entry for Ammi T. Brown, we can only speculate that he may have died in the intervening five years. He also was not found in the 1880 Census.
http://www.joycetice.com/director/1874p058.htm

We have found no record of Ammit T. Brown after the 1870 Census, making it likely that he died sometime between 1870 and 1874.

492 1840 Census, Lewis County, Virginia (now West Virginia):
William Lowther - head of household
1 male 70-79 (William)
2 females 5-9 (Charlotte & Rebecca Willard)
1 female 10-14 (Margaret Willard)
1 female 20-29 (Rulina? See note *)
1 female 40-49 (Sudna Lowther Willard)
1 female 70-79 (Margaret)
* NOTE: The above identification of household members is highly speculative. While the presence of William and Margaret is clear, and the presence of their widowed daughter Sudna and her three daughters is very likely, the identification of the 20-29 year-old female is problematic. She would not have been Mary or Sarah, who both "died young" and would have been 40-43 even if still living. More likely would be Sudna's presumed fourth daughter, Rulina, who is believed also to have been with her in 1830. Born in 1825 prior to Sudna's marriage, Rulina would have been a little younger than indicated, but she is not accounted for elsewhere and it is reasonable to believe that she was still with her mother.

Conflicting information regarding Margaret Morrison, the wife of William Lowther, has been reported by numerous researchers. Minnie Kendall Lowther's "History of Ritchie County," pp. 12-14, reports that Margaret Morrison was born in North Carolina, one of several children of Archibald Morrison (a native of England) and a Miss Fooks. Along the same lines, an a 1908 application to Sons of the American Revolution (Member No. 20361) identifies the applicant's great-great-grandparents as William Lowther Jr, of Harrison Co Va, and Margaret Morrison, of North Carolina. But Don Norman's "Descendants of Robert Lowther" reports her parents as Alexander Morrison and Mary Lowther (dau of Robert Lowther & Aquilla Reese). The same parentage is reported by Jane Lowther Bolster in "The Families of Jesse Lowther and His Son Granville, with Their Descendants and Antecedents in America," p. 25. Linder's "Gibson and Related Families," pp. 400-401, also shows her to be the daughter of Alexander Morrison and Mary Lowther of Harrison County, but then on p. 429 identifies her parents as Archibald & ___ (Fooks) Morrison.

While neither Norman nor Bolster nor Linder cite specific sources, the information reported by Minnie Kendall Lowther does have a credible basis. Not only was she a reputable researcher in local history and genealogy, but she was also the great-granddaughter of this couple, William Lowther and Margaret Morrison, and she was in possession of their family Bible. From research or personal experience, she reported as follows:

"Near the year 1789, he (William Lowther) was married to Miss Margaret Morrison, who was born on the banks of the Yadkin river, in North Carolina, on May 1, 1768, and with her parents emigrated to Harrison county in her early womanhood. After their marriage, they settled near one mile below West Milford, on the farm that is now owned by the Highlands. Here they reared their family, and here they remained until near the year 1837, when they came to this county, where they spent the evening hours of their lives with their son, Archibald Lowther, at Holbrook. ... Mrs. Lowther was a woman of devout religious character, a Presbyterian in faith, and her old Bible, which was her daily companion, is now in the hands of the writer. It bears the date of "1790", and is still held together by the old leather string that she ever kept about it."

It is on this basis that we report this family as we have.

1 male, age 80-90; 1 male, age 15-20; 2 males, age age 10-15

(NOTE: Elizabeth Weekley was the widow of Israel Weekley and the mother of Samantha and Reason Weekley. Although the entries for Noah and Israel clearly indicate the surname Foster, it is highly likely that the intended name was Forester, as their mother Lettice (Letty) had married James Forester in 1862. She, however, died soon thereafter and James remarried in 1867, leaving the boys to be raised by their maternal grandmother. They apparently readopted the Weekley surnmame sometime prior to the 1880 Census.)
