Handwritten Milliken family tree notes (Thomas Milliken and descendants)
Book 1, Page 220 ·1760–1889
Transcription
A handwritten sheet of genealogical notes in pencil, arranged as a family tree with curly braces grouping each set of children. The page is faint in places.
At the top, a paired husband-and-wife header spans the sheet:
Elenor Milliken wife of — Thomas Milliken — Belfast — Ireland — Merchant
B - Carrickfergus, Ireland 1782 M — Susannah Gow — Kirkcudbright, Scotland —
D - April 21st 1844 Died 1864 —
Son —
A bracket below joins the next generation:
{ Thomas Milliken — Chas. — D - 1864
M —
Elenor Hunter — Chas. —
A horizontal rule separates the next section. A second bracket groups three siblings, with death-year and a marriage-and-burial annotation in the right column:
{ Susan Milliken B - Dec. 30 - 1805 — D - May 3rd - 1885
Edmund Patrick — B - Oct. 17 - 1810 — D - Oct. 25 - 1874
Ellen Milliken B - July 25 - 1807 — D - June 10 - 1874 — M — Samuel Barker — buried Magnolia
[The annotation “M — Samuel Barker — buried Magnolia” sits on Ellen Milliken’s row; the companion memorandum on page 222 identifies her as the widow of S. G. Barker, buried at Magnolia Cemetery, and gives her death year as 1871 rather than 1874.]
A third bracket groups four brothers, with death dates written in the right column:
{ Adam Tunno — B - Sept. 5th 1816 — D - Oct 31 - 1889
John —
William Hunter M. — D - July - 20 - 1831
Matthew Irwin M.D. — B 1813 D - Aug 11th - 1837
died at Princeton miss.
[The right-column death dates are written with some vertical drift; per the companion memorandum on page 222, “D - July - 20 - 1831” is the death of William Hunter Milliken and “D - Aug 11th - 1837” is the death of Matthew Irwin Milliken, M.D., at Princeton, Mississippi, in his 24th year.]
At the lower right corner, a small subtraction calculation — the difference giving the implied birth year 1760 (consistent with Thomas Milliken of Belfast having been 48 in 1808):
1808 48
1760
AI Notes
A loose handwritten sheet in pencil laying out Milliken–Hunter–Gow family dates in family-tree format with curly braces grouping siblings. The top pairs Thomas Milliken of Belfast (merchant) with Susannah Gow of Kirkcudbright, Scotland, and gives Eleanor (Hunter) Milliken’s dates (B Carrickfergus 1782, D April 21st 1844). A middle bracket lists three children — Susan, Edmund Patrick, and Ellen — with Ellen’s marriage to Samuel Barker and Magnolia Cemetery burial annotated. A lower bracket lists Adam Tunno, John, William Hunter, and Matthew Irwin (M.D.), with William Hunter dying 20 July 1831 and Matthew Irwin dying 11 Aug 1837 at Princeton, Mississippi. A small subtraction (1808 − 48 = 1760) sits in the lower right.
