Death of Mary Lewis Hulet
Sally's mother, Mary Lewis Hulet, went through all the hardships the Saints went through in Missouri before she died in Clay County, probably in 1837.
Two of her daughters, Charlotte and Rhoda, died in Missouri; martyrs for the faith. Only Sally, of Mary's daughters, lived to leave Missouri.
Caldwell County
Growing resentment from their Clay County neighbors caused the Saints to agree once again to give up their land and many possessions, and move as a body to Caldwell County, where they soon founded the new settlement they named Far West.

Sylvanus was a Soldier in 2 campaigns in the Revolutionary War, against Bourgogne in 1777 and against Arnold, who burned his home town in South Connecticut in 1780. Three brothers, John, Sylvanus and Samuel were partners in a blacksmith and wagon-making shop and a mill in the edge of Lee township against Tyringham twp, Berkshire, MA. Samuel died 6 Mar 1813. The farm was valued at $35 per acre. The estate was settled and by 1815 Sylvanus and John had moved to Nelson twp, Portage, OH. When Sylvanus applied for a Revolutionary Pension in 1820, his 160 acres was valued at $3 per acre. Connecticut kept the NE corner of Ohio for Revolutionary Soldiers as the "Western Reserve".

In 1814 the Hulets' moved from Lee, Berkshire, MA to Nelson, Portage, OH. They were baptised Mormons in Oct 1831. About 1831 they moved to Independence, Jackson, MO. Oct 31, 1833 mobs drove them north across the Missouri River into Clay County. In 1836 they moved north into Far West, Caldwell, MO. In early spring 1839 they moved to Melrose, Lima twp, IL, about 30 miles south of Nauvoo. In the fall of 1845 mobs drove them into Nauvoo. In 1846 they were driven into Iowa, later coming to the Salt Lake Valley.

!Patricia Skinner (4 - 2000) patty555@webtv.net "Sylvanus bought land in Lee, Massachusetts and Great Barrington in 1800. He stayed in that vicinity until approximately 1812, when he boutht land in the new frontier - Ohio. He moved to Portage, Ohio. He married Mary (Polly) Lewis. Sylvanus' children were among the early members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon). He and Polly had 4 children. They were: (1) Sally, born 29 Oct 1787 who married Elisha Whiton (Whiting) on 18 Sep 1806, (2) Charles, born 3 Mar 1790 who married Anna Taylor on 22 Jun 1814 in Lee, Massachusetts. Anna died a year later. Charles then married Margaret Noah on 10 Oct 1816 in Portage, Ohio. Margaret died on 15 Apr 1851 of Dithers disease. On 24 Jan 1852 Charles married Cinthia Clyde. Shortly thereafter, Cinthia divorced him. In 1857 Charles married Eleanor Jenkins. During his marriage he took a second wife, which was the custom of the Mormons in those days. Her name was Mary Lawson. They were married 1 Jan 1858. Mary died in an accident while crossing the plains. By his 5 wives Charles had 7 children. (3) Charlott, born 7 Nov 1792 (4) Rhoda, born 8 Jun 1795. Those were the children listed as born in Lee Vital Records. Other children I have found born to him and Mary (Polly) are (5) Sylvester, born about 1800 (6) Francis, born about 1803, and (7) Mary, born about 1805. Sylvanus can be found in the tax list for Hiram, Portage County in 1817 and 1818. In 1819 and 1820 I have found him in the tax list for Nelson, Portage County, Ohio. He applied for a Soldier's Pension on 14 Jun 1819 while living in Nelson. Many in his family moved to Missouri and then later to Utah.

John's brother Samuel married Susannah Wadsworth on 3 Jun 1789 in Tyringham, Massachusetts. He began buying land in Lee and Great Barrington in the year 1800. While living in Lee they had 4 chidren: (1) Chauncey born 14 Mar 1790, (2) Electa, born 3 May 1793, (3) Orren, born 17 May 1796, (4) (the only thing known about the 4th child is that it passed away at 7 AM on 6 Mar 1808. When malaria hit the area in 1813, every family was affected. Samuel and Susannah died a week apart as a result of the deadly illness. Chauncey is found in the same tax lists in Ohio that his uncle Sylvanus lived in.

John's youngest brother, Asa married a girl named Freelove. Her last name is unknown at this time. They had at least 3 children that we know of: (1) Mary, born about 1781 and (2) Asa, born about 1786. Both children joined the short-lived Shaker religion. (3) Calvin, born about 1792. Asa and his family moved to Barrington, Berkshire County, Massachusetts. Freelove died in 1807. Asa remarried on 8 Mar 1812 at Onondaga, New York to Polly Austin. On 8 Jan 1838 he applied for a Soldiers Pension in Livingston County, New York. At least two different dates can be found for his date of death in Russia, Lorain County, Ohio. They are 8 Oct 1846 and 18 Jun 1847. Calvin lived in Leslin, Ingham County, Michigan in 1853. John's sister Mary married her 1st cousin, Seth Hulet on 19 Jun 1764 in Killingly, Connecticut. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Noadiah Russell. Seth was born to Oliver Hulet and his wife Sarah. Oliver was a brother of John Julet (Sr.), also Mary's uncle. While living in Killingly, Seth and Mary had 3 children: (1) Alpheus, born 11 Jan 1765 and baptized 29 Nov 1767 in Thompson, (2) Sybil, born 16 Aug 1767 and baptized 29 Nov 1767 in the church at Thompson. Their Grandmother, Oliver's wife did not live to see them. She passed away in Killingly on 3 Feb 1759. Seth enlisted in the Revolutionary War in 1777. He moved to Tyringham, Massachusetts, where Mary's family had moved to at an earlier date. Seth can be found in the Tyringham, Massachusetts land records between 1796 and 1803. In 1803 he moved to Westmoreland, New York, where he applied for a Soldiers Pension on 7 Aug 1832.

John's sister, Experience married Henry Herrick in Tyringham, Massachusetts on 12 Dec 1776. In May 1777 a daughter is listed as born to them, however no name is given. Henry died in Tyringham on 6 May 1827. I have found no further record of Experience to date.

John married Sarah Howe, and was converted to the Methodist religion. He and his father were both constantly buying land, even when they were not living in the immediate area. The younger John and his wife, Sarah, lived in Tyringham until a year after the war was over. During this time their first child was born. It was a girl, whom they named Achsah, born on 5 May 1784. She was only one of a long line of children to come. Achsah married Seymore Chapin.

Death date: "The Hulet Quarterly" Volume 5, No. 1, June 1972: (page 2) "I have been trying to locate the date and place of Mary Lewis' death and just could not seem to find any trace as to where she was and also tried the recorders in Nelson, Portage County, Ohio and in Jackson and Clay Counties in Missouri, but found no trace of her. In one of the sketches of Sylvester Hulet's biographies by O.C. Day, he mentioned that there was an "old lady" living with Sylvester Hulet and also one of his sisters and two of her daughters and the son of Sylvester's brother, Francis. So I just took a chance that this old lady was our Mary Lewis. Then I found where Eldred A. Johnson of Orem had found in Grandfather Sylvanus Cyrus Hulet, Sr., in his temple work that Mary Lewis had died in 1835. So that showed her as being in the Hulet settlement near Nauvoo, Illinois. I then started to check the reference given by a distant cousin with the name like the third child of our Mary and Sylvanus Hulet. It was Charlotte Cox of Shelley, Idaho. She gave the date of death as being 6 March, 1835. So, evidently Mary Lewis is buried in the cemetery at the Hulet settlement near Nauvoo.
(Editor's note: I wonder if the year 1835 is the right date, or if Nauvoo is the right place. The saints did not settle around Nauvoo until 1839, except for members who were converted locally in the Nauvoo area previous to the saints going to Illinois as a group from Missouri. If Mary Lewis died in 1835, it would probably have been in Missouri, in Clay, Daviess or Caldwell Counties.)"

MARY LEWIS
By Orville Cox Day
January 31, 1966
Hulet Family Newsletter

Dear Cousins,
No, I cannot believe that Mary Lewis, daughter of Jonathan, is our Mary Lewis. There are many reasons for this.

1.
To find a man’s wife, you follow his travels. I have never heard of a road from Lee to Pepperell by 1786. The easiest way to get there would be to go south from Lee to the coast by ship to Boston, then 70 miles by boat and road to Pepperell.

I cannot learn that Sylvanus ever made that trip, but definitely Sylvanus was in Albany County in 1777-78 at age 19-20 and it was only 30 miles from Lee to Albany County.

2.
I cannot find the least indication that any of Mary Lewis Lewis. I investigated the possibility that Elijah died shortly after his marriage, but he did not.

4.
So many mistakes are made by some doing research. Archibald F. Bennett was such a dependable genealogist. He printed in the Utah Genealogical Magazine that Elijah Noyes and Sylvanus Hulet were having children during the same period of years… Elijah and “his wife, Mary Lewis”.

5.
There was a well-traveled road in 1786 from Lee to Albany… in fact two often traveled highways. One was used for 180 years from Lee to Lake Champlain, another from Lee to the Hudson River and by boat to Albany.

6.
D.L. Jacobus, the best genealogist of all, stated that almost never did any White Man marry a New England Indian woman, but so many married Mohawk Indians.

7.
So many researchers are prone to mistakes.
Please forgive me. Yours, O[rville].C[ox]. Day

Sylvanus was released from the Army in Albany County after Bourgoyne surrendered, after October 20, 1777. O.C.

After 71 years, since mother Euphrasia told me our 7th mother back was an Indian:
1. Euphrasia
2. Elvira
3. Rhoda
4. Mary Lewis Hulet
5. ¼ Indian
6. ½ Indian
7. Running Deer (Josnorum Scoenonti)

I’m so glad to find her, and thankful to the Lord we can do her temple work. Tell all cousins please and thanks. With love, your cousin Orville Cox Day. The Lord surely will bless you for the good work you are doing. O.C.D.

PITCH PINE TALES

Reference: “Pitch Pine Tales”, by Howard R. Driggs, son of Rosalie, daughter of Emeline Whiting, first wife of F. Walter Cox of Manti, Sanpete County, Utah. Sally Hulet, who later married Elisha Whiting Jr. was the oldest child of mary Lewis and Sylvanus Hulet. Sally was taken to visit her Indian relatives. This would be around 1800, when Sally was 13 years old. They traveled northwest from Lee in Berkshire County in western Massachusetts about 50 miles to Albany, New York, then west, up the Mohawk River Valley to the Indian village. Running Deer, her grandmother was then dead.

About 1906, Howard R. Driggs, at the Cox Reunion, asked each one of the older Coxes still alive to write about their pioneer experiences. Howard is now dead.

His grandmother, Emeline Whiting Cox told him how her mother Sally had been taken to visit her Indian relatives. Emeline remembered the name in English, “Running Deer”, but had forgotten it’s Mohawk equivalent. Probably we can find it.

These older relatives, aunts, wrote their stories. After Howard died, his nephew Clare Christensen (son of Maud Driggs) got a box of Howard’s papers. Clare also went to Manti for more pioneer manuscripts.

From a Cox/Tuttle School Teacher cousin in Nephi, Clare got another box of manuscripts. He is now writing a Cox history.

In 1814, the Hulets sold out in Lee, Massachusetts and moved to Nelson, Ohio.

I hope Running Deer’s temple work can be done. I wish every one of the descendants of Walter Cox of Fairview could learn about Running Deer. The Book of Mormon is our book.

How many of us have hunted and hunted for the ancestry of Mary Lewis

JOSNORUM SCOENONTI or RUNNING DEER

Cousin Howard R. Driggs was born about 1877, a son of Rosalie Cox Driggs of Pleasant Grove, Utah, daughter of F. Walter Cox of Manti, Utah.

Around 1900, Howard was much interested in family history. At a reunion, he assigned to each aunt to write her pioneer memories. Several copies of each one have been typed since the aunts died.

Later, Howard spent his time on Utah and Western History.

After Howard’s death, his young second wife Margaret looked over his stacks of papers and books and manuscripts. She gave a lot of them to cousin Clare Christensen in American Fork.

Clare is a son of Howard’s sister, Maud Driggs Christensen. He has gathered up so many of these old manuscripts and is writing a Cox history and trying so carefully to get dates and places accurate.

He figures that when grandfather Orville S. Cox was endowed in the Nauvoo Temple in January or February, 1846, they recorded the place where he was born.

In Manti, aunt Ada hired Peter Poulsen to keep the Cox and Mills temple books for the family and he spelled the town wrong, making it the wrong town, many miles… 50 or 75 or 100, away from where the Coxes lived.

Clare phoned me as to who could look up grandpa’s endowment record. I told him I thought you would know how best of any cousin. He asked me if I would write you and ask you to please find it for us… Nauvoo Temple Record, Endowments.

Uncle F. Walter Cox died around 1878 or later. Afterward, his first wife, aunt Emeline Whiting Cox visited a lot with her daughter Rosalie Cox Driggs in Pleasant Grove. She told the Driggs cousins ‘til she died in 1896, many true stories about every family history.

Howard printed many books. In a book for children, age ten, “Pitch Pine Tales”, he put the name in English of our 5th great grandmother, Running Deer.

I wrote to Utah Representative Burton in Washington, D.C. and he looked up her Indian name in the Indian Dictionary, Josnorum Scoenonti. (She was baptized in the temple 15 September 1966 and endowed 2 February 1967).

It will be recorded in the archives [LEWIS] Josnorum Scoenanti or Running Deer, born C 1682 in Mohawk Village, Mohawk River Valley, Northern New York, married a White Man C 1700. (Perhaps 26,000 descendants).

We have arranged to have her temple work done.

JOHN HULET FAMILY

The John Hulet family moved from Killingly to Lee in 1860. Sylvanus Hulet moved from Lee to Nelson in 1814. He made application for a Revolutionary soldier’s pension on 14 June 1814 and said his wife was age 57. The application was revised 8 August 1820 and granted. For 4 years she received $16 per month. He served in two campaigns, against Burgoyne in 1777 and against Arnold in 1780. We have not yet found the parents of Mary Lewis. Some one said she was part Mohawk Indian. The Mohawks lived west of Albany, New York. When asked how much Indian blood he had, Sylvanus answered “not one drop”.

The Hulets moved from Nelson, Ohio to Jackson County, Missouri around 1831 and there Mary Hulet West died. She left 2 litt

Notes:

What we know about the man that Running Deer married we get from Pitch Pine Tales, by cousin Howard R Driggs. He quotes from (probably) Sally Hulet, whose daughter Emeline Whiting married Frederick Walter Cox. Family history says that Sally Hulet visited her ggmothers village along the Hudson River in NY, and she would have known about 'Charles" but I cannot find any written information about that.
Pitch Pine Tales says that her husband built a log cabin, rather than a wigwam of bent poles and bark that the Natives lived in. The story does not entirely agree with our genealogy dates and places, but it is all we have.
O C Day's information says his name was probably Charles, which is why I put it in quotes. "Squawman" is not a name, but a term for a white man that cohabited with an Indigenous woman. All dates are guesses until we get to Tryphena, and I have not found the source of O C Days information about her.
Please note that the Millennium File and the Family Data Collection on Ancestry are not sources, but just collections of user submitted genealogy.

Oriville Cox, 4:30 a.m. on 16 July 1967 while he was awake,
Running Deer visited me.
She said she was appearing as she looked at age 18, just before she married a white man.
She was dressed in yellowish-brown buckskin; beaded moccasins; leggins, ankles to waist; dress, shoulders to above knees.
She was tall, athletic, beautiful, and very appealing.
She had been converted in the bad part of the spirit world by Mormon missionaries, and now wanted her temple work done so she could go to happy paradise and there learn the gospel thoroughly, and then return to her people as a "Savior on Mount Zion" (Last verse of Obadiah.)
She died about 200 years ago.
We may suppose she will convert her own family first and then they will help us to find their genealogy.
She had been a choice spirit in heaven before her birth upon earth, and had asked permission to be born into the family of Lehi so she might help bring them to salvation. They have been held in prison and dammed from progress so very long.
