from Carl Wolverton:
Joseph Barton Woolverton was 6 years old when his Empire Loyalist father (Thomas-3) immigrated from the US to Maugerville, Sunbury Co., NB in 1783. Joseph's mother (Catharine Barton) and his half sister (Elizabeth Ann) were the only other family members that came with them. Half brothers Thomas and Joseph went to live with their uncle John Woolverton in Washington County, PA and never immigrated to NB. A younger brother (James Barton) was born in Maugerville, NB in 1785 but immigrated to the United States following an altercation (based on family stories) with his father and brother Joseph.
The Woolverton farm in Maugerville was a short distance from the land granted to Dr. John Larlee in 1787. Dr Larlee immigrated from France and was the first white doctor on the Saint John river. Joseph married John Larlee's daughter Jane in 1798 and moved further up the St. John River to his father's farm in Northampton, which had been obtained as a land grant in 1796. Their first child (1 of 11) was born in Northampton in 1799. Additional Northampton land grants were made to Joseph, his father Thomas, John Larlee Sr. and John Larlee Jr. in 1818. Six additional land grants totalling 650 acres were obtained by Joseph Barton Wolverton and his male descendents during the eighteen hundreds. Joseph's first born son (Thomas Thatcher Woolverton) continued the family trend of settling further up the St. John River by purchasing a farm in River de Chute, Wicklow Parish, in 1832.
Note: There are a number of minor conflicts with data for Joseph Barton Woolverton in the book ' The Woolverton Family 1693-1850 and Beyond ' published July 2001. (1) Joseph was born in 1777 in Sussex County NJ - not 1779-1780 in Washington County, PA. Joseph Woolverton's head stone in St. Luke's Cemetery, Lower Woodstock, NB indicates that Joseph was 66 years old when he died on 26 April 1843. Joseph's age at death is also confirmed by Vital Statistics Vol 10 item #917 dated 6 May 1843. The Anglican Church Northampton Parish Register (archives film F1056) indicates Joseph died at age 63. This hand written church document #206 is very clear but a recording error appears to have been made. (2) Joseph and Jane were married Nov 17, 1798 - not Nov 17, 1799. The hand written church record (Archive film F8508 record #3) confirms the 1798 marriage date.
