Samuel Bateman
M, #6391, b. about 1794, d. 1874
Biography
- Birth: About 1794; Inchinatan, County Cork, Ireland
- Death: 1874; Illinois, USA
- Burial: Blue Ridge Cem., Mansfield, Illinois
- Note: In the 1827 Tithes Applotment records Samuel Bateman was recorded with 85 acres in Inchinatin townland, Castleventry parish, County Cork. Also in Inchinatin were John Bateman with 80 acres and two separate listings for Thomas, one for 34 acres, the other for 16 acres. A John Bateman also held 59 acres in Bohona townland, Castleventry. (John Bateman and Thomas Bateman also held land in Inchinattin, Castleventry at the time of the Griffiths Valuation in about 1850).
Samuel and Jane Bateman came to Hastings County in 1850. Their grandson, James Buttimer Belshaw, told the story of his mother's family trip to Canada (published in "The Heritage Years," p. 310):
"They came to Canada by sailboat (it took six weeks) and had to bring their own food to cover the journey. They sailed up the St. Lawrence River to the Bay of Quinte in Belleville. James Haggerty, Barton's grandfather, met them by ox team and they stayed in the Haggerty shanty on a knoll on the east side of Madoc Gravel Road [now highway 62], north of the James Donnan farm. Shortly afterwards, they lived in a shanty on a knoll on the south side of the 8th line road of Rawdon, on fifty acres. They also lived on the 7th concession of Rawdon, on the Forestall farm, where Mary Buttimer was married to James Thomas Belshaw. Her [Mary's] uncle, Thomas Bateman, went to Blue Ridge, Ill., U.S.A. just to see the country. He later returned and took his parents to visit Blue Ridge. It was in this city that they all eventually died."
A Bateman family history prepared by Roy Bateman, a member of the Illinois family, notes the following:
"Samuel Bateman, grandfather of J.O., was born in Ireland in 1794 and died in 1874 and is buried in Blue Ridge cemetery northwest of Mansfield, Illinois. His wife Jane was born in Ireland in 1798 and died in Mansfield in 1881 and buried at Blue Ridge too.
Their son John, J.O.'s father, was born in Ireland in 1825 and died in 1874 and he too is buried in Blue Ridge cemetery. His wife was Elizabeth, born in Ireland in 1821 and died in 1884. She had gone back to Canada, died there, and was buried at Deleware, near London, Ontario. Elizabeth had first married George Haggerty and had three children. Elizabeth and John remained in Canada. Catherine, born in 1848, married Samuel Howe. Their children are Joseph, Elizabeth Warren, George, Anna Langley, Samuel, William, Martha Wisler, Bert and Pearl Martin.
The family moved from Canada to Lincoln, Illinois in 1866, then to Piatt County in 1870. The children of John and Elizabeth are:
I. Samuel born 1852. His children were: Emma Vulgamott, Ed, Kitty Fielder, Orie
