OH Emigration 1836 Joined family in OH with own wife and children Event Relocation 1790 Left in Ireland with Aunts sick Whooping Cough Event Records 1850 Listed 1850 OH Census p 425 or 416 Rush Creek Twp. Reference Number 292 Note William, Jr. and Jane decided to come to America to join his parents and family, who had come in 1790. At the time of the 1790 sailing, William Black, Jr. was a baby two years of age, and so ill with whooping cough that the doctor said there was no chance of his recovery. His mother, feeling that she could not bear to see her baby buried at sea, left him with her maiden sisters Jennie andNancy Wiley, in Ireland. He recovered, and brought his Aunt Nancy Wiley with his family when they came to America. They sailed from Port Rush near the Giant s Causeway, on the north coast of Ireland, on Orange Day, July 12th, 1836, arriving at Liverpool the next morning. They came to America on The Dunkin Gibb, a sailing vessel which was delayed six weeks at Liverpool, waiting for passengers enough to make a paying trip to America. They were on the water 90 days, and when they reached the mouth of the St Lawrence River navigation was closed for the winter. They traveled by wagons to Buffalo, NY, passing around Niagara Falls near the location of Brock s monument. The trip was too much for Nancy Wiley, the aunt, and she passed away and was buried at Prescot, Canada. The family spent the winter in Buffalo, and when Spring came, they resumed their journey by way of canal, to Lancaster, Ohio. A Mr. Stemen, who lived where the Fairview schoolhouse now stands, east of Bremen, brought them in his wagon from Lancaster, to the home of William Black, east of Bremen. William Jr. and Jane Black spent their remaining days on this farm, which William Black 1 bought when he came from Pennsylvania, in 1811. William Black, Jr. served an apprenticeship while in Ireland, at the weaver s trade, learning the method of manufacturing fine Irish linen. In the United States, he followed the occupation of farming. He was a member of the Bethel Presbyterian Church sometimes called Old Bethel and is buried in that cemetery.
