Collaborating with myself about the Clapperton surname!

  Let's see, did I talk about the Clappertons yet?   I will do that first.  There are many Clappertons in Scotland.  They are not very interested in genealogy and no one wants to talk to me so far.  I spent last week researching the Clapperton surname.  I found several family trees online but those that made the trees do not know anything that would help me.  They were kind enough to respond, but could not give me any added info. If I could just get a Clapperton to do a DNA test I could get on with my work, either excluding them or not by the results of the testing.  Like I could eliminate the Cunninghams because there were absolutely no matches, not even close.  Getting sleepy.

Where did John go from 1760 to 1774?

I found the answer to that question!  John sold all his property in Virgina in 1760 and disappears from  available records in Virginia until 1774.  He is found in May 1760 back in Dublin, Ireland in the Freemasons register.  He is listed in 4 places.  He is last listed on the register in 1768.  I found the source on Ancestry.com.  The Caperton name is found near Carrickfergus on a map of impounding reservoirs.  It was called a Townland. John had joined the Dragoons upon returning to Ireland because Carrickfergus was being threatened by The French and he needed to volunteer to protect his land.  I read some history of the Ulsters and it totally fits with what John did.  I think that once that conflict was settled, the War in the Americas was starting with England and he went back to volunteer in that effort in Virginia. I will be putting together my references and try to figure out how to link them here.https://books.google.com/books?id=5pLRAAAAMAAJ&pg=PA103&lpg=PA103&dq=uls

James Caperton in England

Image
Today..July 18, 2018…it is hot in Anderson where I live so I entertain myself with genealogy.  I found a Court Proceedings of the Old Bailey…London’s Central Criminal Court, 1674 to 1913,  for James Caperton as the victim of a crime on May 16, 1812.  So naturally I looked it up and couldn’t attach it here so I printed it and will try to do it another way.  The essence of the crime was Ann Rogers age 15 and Jane Jones age 17 broke into James' business.  At least it sounds like a business, a bar, and took food, cooking utensils, and the till, the money drawer.  They also killed someones chicken.  They were hungry! They were convicted of the crime and given the sentence of death!  for a chicken!  Death….unbelievable!  Then some witnesses asked for mercy because of good character, no they were not pregnant.  They received mercy and got life in prison instead.  still unbelievable!  This was on July 1, 1812   In October 1812, they were both transported on the ship called Emu With 40 conv
