BERT_RAWLINS_REPORT: Report on Hosea Rawlins and Martha Cotton
Bert Rawlins, March 2002
This report has been a long time in preparation. I have gathered information on Hosea Rawlins over the years, but I have never devoted a concentrated period of time on just he and his family. Since last fall, I have, and I can report that I have successfully traced Hosea and Martha Cotton Rawlins from Tennessee to Illinois and finally to Missouri where Hosea and Martha died. I have never found their marriage, though I believe it took place in Bedford County, Tennessee. The marriage records for this county do no exist for the early period around 1812, so we may never get the actual marriage entry because it no longer exists anywhere. That’s okay, however, since enough information has been found to identify this couple and their children. Let’s go through the history of this family and weave the story of their life using the sources that I have found on them.
It starts out in Rutherford County, North Carolina. There is little question that Hosea Rawlins was born in this county, since his parents Charles Rawlins and Aristitia Gregory were both residing in the county at the time of his birth. He was probably born in1786. In 1790, Charles Rawlins (Rollins) was found in the census of that year with his wife and two males under the age of 18 years. One of these undoubtedly was Hosea. I am not certain who the other male was. There may have been another son that we are not aware of who died at a young age. After 1790, we can account for the other children born to Charles and Aristitia Gregory Rawlins. There was Charlotte born in 1791, James born in 1794, Joseph born in 1796 and Amy born in 1798. Charles dies in 1800 in Warren County, Kentucky, so we know there were no other children born to this couple. Hosea had to have been born before 1790, and we can safely put his birth year close to 1786.
Hosea, then, was about 14 years of age when his father died in 1800 in Warren County, Kentucky. Aristitia Gregory Rawlins married shortly after 1800 to Noah Phillips. Tradition has it that Roderick Rawlins played in instrumental part in caring for at least two of Charles’ boys, namely James and Joseph, but to round this out, my guess is that he also played a part in raising Hosea as well. The girls, Charlotte and Amy, it appears, remained under the care of their mother Aristitia Gregory Rawlins Phillips. Aristitia ends up in Orange County, Indiana, and that is where her daughter Amy married James Lemmon, and her other daughter Charlotte married Ezekiel Downs in Harrison County, Indiana, which borders Orange County. James Rawlins gave consent to the marriage of his sister Charlotte when she married Ezekiel Downs. Joseph also married in Orange County, and their uncle Roderick settled in Bedford, Lawrence County, Indiana, which is the next county up from Orange County. They all migrated to Illinois in the early 1820’s.
But, what happened to Hosea Rawlins? There is no trace of him in Indiana. Did he travel with the rest of the family, but move on from there to some other place? There have been enough records found that contain reference to Hosea to trace his movements accurately from one place to the other. We can pick him up at age 14 in Warren County, Kentucky at the time of his father’s death. We can be pretty certain that he was in Warren County, Kentucky at this time. In the years right after 1800, he is still growing up so he is either with his mother, or his uncle Roderick. I think he is probably more closely associated with his mother than Roderick Rawlins, at least until he is close to 20 years of age. Here is why I think this is true. Hosea Rawlins appears on a tax list in Warren County, Kentucky in 1807 on page 20. He is the only white male over 21 years of age, and he has two horses. No land is mentioned in connection with him on this list. A male does not appear on the list until he reaches age 21. And knowing what we know about Hosea, I think this would be the first time he appears on the list. Since it is his first time, we can calculate his age from the tax list and subtract 21 from 1807 making his birth year 1786.
Roderick Rawlins appears in Barren County, Kentucky tax lists from 1800 to 1807. He disappears after this year, and he is basically lost until he resurfaces in Bedford County, Tennessee in about 1810 or 1811. He appears in deed records of this county between 1810 and 1812. He even appears on a tax list for Bedford County in 1812. Appearing on this tax list also is a Hasey Rawlins and is in the same company as Roderick Rawlins. This is without question Hosea Rawlins, and he is living near his uncle Roderick. The date of this tax record taken in 1812 is not given, but it is usually taken in the first half of the year.
From the history of Joseph Rawlins, Hosea’s brother, who settled in Bedford, Indiana, we get the following paragraph from Joseph’s biography or history, which gives background on Hosea Rawlins as well. He is written into this paragraph without his name ever being mentioned. "Joseph Rawlins came from Danville, Kentucky, with a musket and a .... With him were his brother James Rawlins and their uncle Roderick Rawlins. They came to what is now known as Bono Township, Lawrence County in 1812.” Hosea Rawlins was listed in a tax list of Bedford County, Tennessee in 1812, as was his uncle Roderick Rawlins. That same year, Hosea is also listed in St. Clair County, Illinois in November of 1812 registering a mark for his cattle. This implies that Hosea traveled at the same time as Joseph, James and Roderick Rawlins in 1812. It seems only logical that if he traveled northward towards Indiana that he would travel with his brothers and uncle. The difference is that he apparently kept on going to St. Clair County, Illinois, arriving there late in the same year, as he recorded the mark for his livestock on November 12, 1812.
He remained in the St. Clair County area for at least the next 16 years. He was found in the 1820 census of Washington County, which by this time bordered St. Clair County, Illinois. But he disappears from the censuses of Illinois after this date. It became the focus of some intense research from this point to try and find where he went after leaving Illinois.
After searching without much success in numerous census indexes for various states, the direction of my search moved westward. His name was passed over more than once, but he appeared in the 1830 census index of Missouri as Haza Rawlins. This did not register at first, but after seeing it a second time, I decided to examine this entry in the 1830 census of Cooper County, Missouri. Upon examining the original entry, there was no question that his name was written in this census as Hoza Rawlins and not Haza Rawlins. This was a relief to find this rather unusual entry spelled in such a way that it was obvious they were trying to record the name Hosea. Hoza is closer to this name than Haza. There just aren’t that many Hosea Rawlins, so had I found Hosea in Missouri? I had to prove this some way.
The 1830 census was quite revealing in that it showed that this Hoza Rawlins had three sons and three daughters. Now, there is no indication from the Rawlins family in Utah that Hosea had any more than one son, whom he named Asa Rawlins, and he was supposed to have died young. So, was this really our Hosea Rawlins then?
I spent a great deal of time searching the records of Cooper County, Missouri for this Hosea Rawlins, but no deeds were recorded for this man in this county. The marriages were indexed, and except for a Robert Rolin, no Rawlins or Rollins marriages were recorded in this county. Not one reference was found to either Hosea or Martha Rawlins. In all of this searching so far, no document had been found to identify the name of Hoza’s wife. If it could just be determined that it was Martha, it would have added enough evidence to continue to pursue this line. Where did he go from Cooper County? I had no clue. He did not show up in any census indexes after the 1830 reading of him and his family in Cooper County. Could he have gone to Texas? I searched there. Nothing! It looked like I was dead-ended again, but only temporarily.
I knew from the Nauvoo baptisms from the dead that he was deceased by 1844 because his brother James Rawlins had this ordinance performed for him in September of that year. Was he alive in 1840 when the census was taken in that year? I could not find him.
I let this sit for a while. When I came back to it, I altered my approach a little. I looked for Martha Rawlins in the census. I did not find anything in the 1840 census of Missouri, but I did find a Martha Rollins residing in Miller County in 1850, which is not that far from Cooper County. In fact, Miller County was formed from part of Cooper County. I had to look at this Martha Rollins to see what her age was and where she was born. She was 50 years of age at the time of this census, which would make her birth year about 1800. This would make her a little young to marry Hosea Rawlins by around 1812-1814. Still, it was not the first time I had run across an age that was way off in the census. Maybe, that was the case here. Maybe, her birth year was a few years earlier, like around 1795. She was born in Tennessee, which is where I suspected that Martha’s family would be from.
It was worth checking out Martha further. I got into the records of Miller County, and this is where things started to really come together. I did not find another reference to Martha Rawlins, but for some reason, my mind shifted to thinking about the fact that she was a Cotton before marriage. Since Hosea and Martha did not follow the Rawlins side in their movement westward, I wondered if, perhaps, they might have moved with some of the Cottons. This became interesting. In backtracking, I found residing on the same page in the 1830 census of Cooper County, Missouri as Hosea Rawlins, a Benjamin and Gabriel Cotton. Benjamin was born between 1780 and 1790, and Gabriel was born around 1810. It turned out that Gabriel was the son of Benjamin Cotton. This was really interesting because Benjamin and Gabriel had moved to Miller County by 1840 as they showed up in the census of this county for that year. Was the Martha Rawlins found in the 1850 census of Miller County, the widow of Hosea Rawlins? Was her maiden surname Cotton, and was she related someway to Benjamin and Gabriel Cotton? They seemed to follow each other around, at least in Missouri, but, what about the earlier period? I could not find Benjamin or Gabriel in Illinois, but I did find a Benjamin Cotton in the 1820 census of Barren County, Kentucky! I don’t think it was by coincidence that Benjamin Cotton would be living in Barren County. After all that is where the Rawlins resided before moving to Indiana. The Rawlins and Cotton families lived in the same proximity of each other. This was a big clue, and it encouraged me to look more closely at the Cottons and Rawlins (Rollins) living in Miller County, Missouri.
In checking the marriages of Miller County, I found that three Rollins women married in this county between 1846 and 1855. This would be the time Hosea’s three daughters, all born in the 1820’s, would marry. The name was always recorded as Rollins with this family, which seemed a bit unusual, but there were too many things that intrigued me not to check out these three women - Eliza Ann, Matilda, and Emily Rollins - further.
I started with Emily. She married James Long 20 August, 1846 in Miller County. I was able to trace this couple in every census from 1850 through 1900 in Miller County. I checked the transcribed monumental inscriptions to see if I could find a burial for her and James. I succeeded in doing this. She was buried in Allen Cemetery, Miller County. This gave her birth date and death date. She died in 1911. What luck! Missouri began keeping vital records 1910. I could try and get a death certificate for Emily. Death certificates at that time called for the names of the deceased person’s parents. I needed to send for the death certificate of Emily to see who her parents were. I sent for the certificate, and when I received it back, it states that her parents were “Hosey Rollins and Nancy Cotton”. It also gave her birthplace as “Belville, Illinois. Belville is in St. Clair County. This confirmed what I had suspected all along. Hosea and Martha Cotton Rawlins did settle in Cooper and Miller Counties in Missouri, and they had a minimum of six children - three boys and three girls. The girls were the three mentioned above.
I next traced Eliza Ann Rollins another daughter of Hosea and Martha Cotton Rollins. She married 27 January, 1849 in Miller County to James Shaderick of Moniteau County. I was able to find her with her husband in Moniteau County in the 1880 Census. Eliza gives her age as 56 in this census meaning that she was born about 1824 in Illinois. She apparently was dead by 1900 as she could not be found in this census. More work could be done to find her exact date of death and where she was buried. Tracing her further, could provide more clues about her background and parentage.
Matilda Rollins married 10 February, 1855 in Miller County to Jonathan Billingsley. It appears to me that Matilda was Jonathan’s second wife, as he had children that were in their teens. Matilda and Jonathan were found in the 1860 census of Miller County. This couple was not found in the 1870 census, but Jonathan Billingsley was found in the 1880 census of Dent County, Missouri living with his daughter Rebecca Ann, who was married to John B Dickerson. He was a widower by this time. This daughter needs to be traced further. It would be interesting to find her in the 1870 census and other records that would help us know when she died and whether she left any clues about her parents.
I found the marriage of a James T Rollins married in Miller County, Missouri in 1843. I would say this is likely to be one of the sons of Hosea and Martha Rawlins. I do not know who the other two sons were. No other likely Rollins marriages were found in Miller County, at least not in the period of between 1830 and 1860. If the other two sons lived and married, they did not marry in Miller County. I found a Harvey Rollins marrying in 1846 in Morgan County, which was formed out of Cooper County and borders Miller County on the west side. This may have been one of the sons, but I have not been able to prove it yet.
Enclosed is a family group sheet depicting the information that has been found on Hosea Rollins and Martha Cotton. There is no question who he is. There is more work that needs to be done here, both on the family of Hosea Rollins and the family of Benjamin Cotton. I would say that Martha was a sister to Benjamin Cotton, but that will need to be verified. I have added the documentation to the family group sheet of Hosea Rollins and Martha Cotton, and the actual documents have been included with this report that can be added to your own files. The temple work will need to be done on this family. Some temple work has been done for Hosea and Martha Rawlins, but I suspect the work has not been done for their children.
I will now turn my attention to the Sharp family again to see if this line can be extended further. I will be in Kentucky and Tennessee this summer, and I have plans to spend at least three days working in different places in these two states. I anticipate success in tracing our ancestry further.

The temple work will need to be done on this family. Some temple work has been done for Hosea and Martha Rawlins, but I suspect the work has not been done for their children.
I will now turn my attention to the Sharp family again to see if this line can be extended further. I will be in Kentucky and Tennessee this summer, and I have plans to spend at least three days working in different places in these two states. I anticipate success in tracing our ancestry further.

DEATH: Jessica was killed in an auto accident. Her Grandmother Peredes and all of her mothers brothers came to the funeral. Also her Grandmother and Grandfather Castleton, Nancy Robinson and baby Ada, Uncle David Castleton and Reo's (her Uncle) x-wife all flew to Maryland to the funeral. Grandpa Castleton sang, "I Walked Today Where Jesus Walked." That is why Nancy came also, to play for her Grandfather. It was in a community church whare Jessica and her parents went to and Jessica was active in the Youth group. There were many young people at this funeral. It was a beautiful sight to see how those young people loved her. She was a peace ma ker. My cousin Steve Rawlins and his wife Carol came to the viewing from Silver Spring, Mar yland. It was a real comfort to me to have them come. I asked Steve it he would go and dedicate her grave by the Melchesideck Prieshood and he did several weeks later. She is buried in an army cemetery. To go to this cemetery you take Exit 10 off Freeway 3, Veterans Highway, turn by Dry Clearners onto Sunrise Beach Road. It is in Crownsville, MD.
