| 12774 | The first known Violett in the United States was William Violett of Kent Island, Maryland, living there in 1668. William had a son Edward who married Eleanor Saunders of Virginia The Violettes of Virginia: by Martin Violette This is the history of the Violette family which first Appeared in the colonies in the Northen Neck of Virginia-the lands between the Potomac and Rappahannock Rivers-in the early partr of the 18th century. Virginia Violettes, or Violetts, Vyolets, Voylets, Villets-any of these spellings can be found-appear to be a Kentish family from around the Bromley-Beckenham area east-south-east of London, where a number of Violetts live today. Northern Virginia, and the Northern Neck, was an area settled in major part by immigrants from the West and South of England, and from Kent, and their surmames are still prominent in many localities there. Most of the families to whom the Violetts of the 18th and early 19th centuries are related, whether by marriage or business dealings, have Kentish surnames. For example, there is an Ashford Violett who derived his given name from a family related by marriage to ours, who in turn derived their surname in all likelihood from the city of Asford in Kent. I should explain here why I use the spelling "Violette". Although the first head of the family in the colonies for whom I have found documentary evidence-Edward-signed his name Violet, most documents, tombstones, etc., from the 18th and early 19th century use Violett, and finally, while the "Frenchification" of the name appears to have taken place mostly in the latter part of the 19th century, there are still several reasons to use this form. Of Violet, Violett, and Violette, the most frequently occurring version in the U.S. census of 1990 is the last of the three. The editors of the papers of George Washington, it should be noted, also prefer this usage. But the most important reason to use "Violette" is that there is another Violette family, French in origin and Quebecois in its early North American representation, with the French spelling. This family, fortunately, has a well documented genealogy, so it is relatively easy ro keep them apart in genealogical and historic research (although there are some confusing overlaps, especially in Midwestern states of the U.S). But the added "e" in our family has caused a lot of confusion, and many "Virginia" Violettes erroneously believe themselves to be of French descent. My intention is to make it easy for genealogical researchers to find this resource side-by-side with resources side-by-side with resources pewrtaining to the French family. | Violett, William (P23366)

| 12776 | The following has been extracted from an article by Claudine Chalmers PhD. that was printed in the American CanadianGenealogist, Vol. 37, issue #129, 3rd Quarter 2011. Jean Baptist Charbonneau attended St. Louis Academy, now known as St. Louis University Highschool under the auspices of William Clark. He left school in the early 1820's and became a guide and interpreter at a trading village near the Kaw River in Kansas. He was befriended by Prince Paul Wilhelm von Wurttemb, a newphew of German King Fredrick I. For the next five years Jean Baptiste lived in a German palace and travelled extensively throughout Europe. Bad Mergentheim baptismal records reveal that Jean Baptiste fathered a child born 20 Feb. 1829 with Anastasia Katherina Fries, the daughter of a local soldier. The child died three monts later. Jean Baptiste returned to America in 1829. The 24 year old was now fluent in English, German, Spanish, and French, besides Indian tongues, and had acquired courtly manners of a true European gentleman. Yet, he could not resist the call of the wild and he returned to the life of the mountain man which his father had led before him. William Boggs described him "the best man on foot on the plains or in the Rocky Mountains." He was once appointed mayor of Mission San Luis Rey but resigned when he had to apply laws that kept the local Indians in debt and virtual slavery. When one of his companions, James Marshall discovered gold at Sutter's Mill in Jan, 1848, he too caught gold fever and he headed to Placer County. The 1860 census showed him living near Auburn, CA. In 1866, at age 61 Charbonneau once again felt the call of the wild. He joined a party heading for new goldfields in Montana Territory, close to the scenes of his youth. They had to cross the icy waters of the Owyhee River. Charbonneau caught pheumonia and died on May 16, 1866 at Inskip Station, a hamlet of Danner, Oregan. There is a plaque dedicated to him by the Placer County Historical Society next to the old firehouse in Auburn, CA. | Charbonneau, Jean-Baptiste (Pompy) (P60884)

| 12777 | The funeral of Mrs. Heloise Violett Sylvester, 71 years old, who died here, was held from Saint James Episcopal church. The services were conducted by the Rev. Dr. W. S. Slack, retired Episcopal minister, followed by interment in Greenwood Memorial Park. She was the wife of Ira Wallace Sylvester, city engineer of Alexandria, to whom she was married on 30 June 1892. She was born in Opelousas, on 26 September 1869, and was a daughter of the late Oscar J. Violett and Mrs. Aglae Dejean Violett. She was educated in the schools of Saint Landry parish and taught there and in Rapides parish. Besides her husband, she is survived by three sons, Commander Evander Wallace Sylvester, Lieutenant Commander Harold MacTavish Sylvester, and Lieutenant Commander Malcolm Duncan Sylvester, all of the United States Navy. Mrs. Sylvester had long been a leader in civic and club work and was a writer in several fields of literary endeavor. Some of her poems received national recognition. She was the founder of the local Poets circle and Geographic club and other organizations here. She organized the first American Red Cross chapter here and with her oldest son, Wallace Sylvester, led in the establishment of the first Boy Scout work in this city. | Violett, Heloise (P47299)

| 12779 | The marriage ceremony of Eve Hoover Philips to Sampson Violett was in Johnstown, Ohio and the two credible witnesses were Major Eli A. Pratt, a Revolutionary comrade of Sampson Violett and William Duke a nephew of Eve Hoover Philips. William Duke was the 3rd son of John Duke and Catherine Hoover Duke, a sister of Eve Hoover Philips, 10 years her senior, who was born in 1776. At the time of Eve’s marriage to Sampson Violett, she w as about 29 years old. Sampson, born in 1761 would be about 54 years of age. Where Sampson and Eve lived after their marriage is only tentatively suggested by a deed for a property to Sampson Violett at Galena, Ohio, Delaware County in 1817. This could have been Eve’s home when Richard Philips lived. At least in the search for any real assurance, the drive was made to Galena and a family name of Philips now live there on the place and is undoubtedly a descendent of a branch of the same family. There was still a story about "Sampson" building the "Chimney" which still stood at one end of the large room in 1941.

| 12786 | The Violett Family in America by Genevieve Potts (Mrs. Perry A.) Dolle 1950 edited and annotated by Martin H. Violette ver. 1.00 2007, page 84 has William Atwood, but the Louisiana Cemetery Records has William Alfred. Biographical and historical memoirs of Louisiana by Goodspeed, 1892 list his children on page 435. Grave Marker with "Blanche, May, & Lamartine infant children of Wm. A. & Penlopey Violette God's finger touched them and their Slep". Possibly triplets who died at birth, no year was given. Extract from BIOGRAPHICAL AND HISTORICAL MEMOIRS OF LOUISIANA, in two volumes, The Goodspeed Publishing Co., 1892, pages 434-436 There is perhaps no man in Louisiana who, when the state first began to come to the front in developing its general resources some eight years since, was more prominently identified in promoting and developing organizations, and in bringing the attention of his own people to its material resources, than is Mr. Atwood Violett. He is full of enterprise, and ready to co-operate always in any movement tending to benefit the community at large, and no one enjoys more general confidence. He is prominent socially, as well as commercially, and there are few men better known in every way. He is a native of New Orleans, and was born in 1847. The genealogy of the Violett family dates back to the early colonial days. His ancestors came from France, and settled in Maryland. His branch of the family removed to Alexandria, Va., about 1770, and it was there, his father, William A. Violett, was born in 1812. At an early age he went to Pittsburg, Pa., which was at that time the distributing point to all of the Southwest, and with New Orleans, naturally, as the great commercial center in that region. He found employment in the house of Atwood, Jones & Co., who were then the leading iron people of the West. In a few years he was sent to New Orleans as the representative of that firm. Two years after his arrival, 1840, he established himself in the wholesale grocery business, under the firm name of Violett & Dyas, then as W. A. Violett, and finally W. A. Violett & Co., and at the commencement of the late war they were the leading people in their line, and one of the most successful houses in the ante-benum days of New Orleans. He was a leading citizen in many ways, strongly endowed by nature, a man of fine judgment, enterprising, and fully alive to the interests of the city and state of his adoption. He was at various times a contributor to the leading journals here, on current and important topics, and for several years was a member of the city council. When hostilities between the North and South looked imminent he was strongly against a dismemberment of the Union, but when Virginia seceded, he considered his allegiance to his state was paramount to that due to the national government—an opinion that Virginians as a rule at that time strongly adhered to. He became an ardent confederate, and by his deeds, as well as words, did what he could for the success of the cause. He was not in service, but his means were spent freely in aiding those whose husbands, fathers and were on the battlefield. In April, 1862, upon the capture of New Orleans by the federal forces, he became a refugee with his family, leaving as many others did, with the expectation of returning within a few months, but it was not until May, 1865, they were able to do so, New Orleans remaining in possession of the federal government until the close of the war. During that period he became one of the confidential agents of the confederate government, and through his diplomacy, had arranged for a system of exchanging cotton for clothing, medicine and other necessities. Everything was in readiness for this exchange, at the port of Mobile, with the consent of both governments when all was brought to an abrupt termination by a change in Mr. Davis' cabinet. Through his business foresight in winding up his affairs, previous to leaving New Orleans, Mr. Violett found himself, on his return, with unimpared credit, and without a claim against him of any description. He soon gathered up the remains of his fortune, and embarked in the cotton business under the firm name of Violett, Black & Co., but the vicissitudes through which he had passed, political and otherwise, together with his large financial losses, had their effect upon his physical vitality. His health became impaired, and he died in November, 1868. On his mother's side. Mr. Atwood Violett is a lineal descendant of the Washingtons. John Washington had two children, Elizabeth and Augustin Washington. Augustin Washington became the father of George Washington. Elizabeth Washington married Thomas Lanier, and they had five children. Among their issue was Sampson Lanier, who married Elizabeth Chamberlain. To them were born two sons and three daughters. one of the latter, Winifred Lanier, married Col. Drury Ledbetter, of Virginia. They had six children and one of them a daughter, Susan W. Ledbetter, was born in the year 1773 in North Carolina. She married Maj. Thomas Martin, of the United States army. Major Martin was born in Albemarle County, Va., in 1751. In 1801 he took command of a fort near Norfolk, Va., but finally came in the year 1804 to Newport Barracks, Ky., at which place he became its first commandant. Their home soon became the rendezvous for the best society of that region and great social attraction for a long time. At the end of the Revolution, upon the organization of the " Order of the Cincinnati " Major Martin was made a member of the same, and to the last male of his descendants will this right to membership continue. By his marriage with Susan W. Ledbetter, there were six daughters and two sons, one whom, Eliza W. Martin, married Maj. Richard W. Oldham, of the United States army, who, after his marriage, was stationed at Jackson Barracks, La.,- for a considerable length of time. He was a son of Col. William Henry Oldham, of Kentucky, who married Penelope Pope. Colonel Oldham was killed at the head of his regiment, in an engagement with the Indians in Florida. Both the Oldham and Pope families and their descendants are still numerous, and identified with many of the most prominent people of Kentucky and Southern states to-day. To Major Oldham and Eliza W. Martin were born a very numerous family, among them Penelope A. Oldham, now the sole survivor. She married William A. Violett. Their children are Atwood (the subject of this sketch, who is therefore the seventh in lineal descent from John Washington), Ella, Lily, Edwin R. and Mignonette. | Violett, William Afred (P87788)
