8 GEORGE OUTMAN
8 GEORGE3 (John2,
Johannes1), son of John and
Isabelle (Williams) Outman, was probably born after 27 May 1722 (as he was not
included in the baptism of his other brother and sister at that time), and was
baptized at Stratford, Fairfield County, Connecticut, 16 September 1722
(records of Stratford Episcopal Church); he died at Arlington, Bennington
County, Vermont, 17 July 1793 (gravestone St. James Cemetery, Arlington). He married ca 1745 Ruth Wooster, who died 16
March 1814 at the age of 89 years.
George joined the Episcopal Church at Stratford 2 July 1747.
This family
removed to Arlington, Vermont, probably about 1765, where George acquired a
considerable estate in land and conducted a black smithing business.
Following the
close of the French and Indian Wars in 1760 and the possession of Canada by the
British, thus relieving the menace of frequent incursions by the Indians into
this territory, settlers from New England, largely from Connecticut, who as
early as 1750 felt themselves to be crowded, flocked into the so-called
Hampshire Grants, so that by the outbreak of the War of the American
Revolution, the population of Vermont had reached 20,000 or more. Bennington and Addison were settled in 1761;
Arlington and Rutland in 1762; Pownal 1763; Poultney, Hubbardtown and
Manchester in 1764. The exact date of
the removal of George Outman to Arlington is not known, but he is believed to
have been one of the earliest settlers.
The family were
prominent members of St. James Episcopal Church of Arlington and many of the
Oatman family, representing four generations, are buried in the adjoining
cemetery.
Quoted from
Aldrich's Bennington County:
"President
Hopkins used to say that in the first settlement of Bennington County, the
applicants for land were disposed of according to their religious views. Congregationalists were mostly sent to
Bennington, Baptists to Shaftsbury, the Episcopalians to Arlington, and those
who had no creed were sent to Pownal."
While the town
record of Arlington for the period prior to 1790 are meager - many of the
records being missing - a list of the members of this family are entered in the
records, preparatory no doubt to the settlement of George's estate, the details
of which settlement do not appear of record.
George was on the
Vermont payroll of Captain Matthew Lyon's Company of Alarm in 1780: No. of Days in Service - 5; No. miles travel
- 50; Amount Pay October Alarm - 0.6.8 -- Total, 1.3.4.

Spencer, who died 27 January 1809, at the age of 58; and 4) Mrs. Freelove (Wilcox) Parks, who died
10 March 1830 in her 71st year. She was
the mother of the Mary Parks who married her stepson, David Andrus, below.
Isaac lived for a
time at Windham and later at Newent, Connecticut. On 27 February 1765 he sold his farm at
Newent and moved to Shaftsbury, Vermont (then a part of Albany County, New
York). He was one of the earliest
members of the Baptist Church there. He
was a veteran of the French and Indian Wars, and served as private, sergeant,
lieutenant and captain during the Revolutionary War.

According to Historical Southern Families, "John Mackie Jr.
was a man of sterling character. He was
an astute business man and acquired a considerable amount of property. After serving four years in the army, he
returned to a devastated area and by sheer determination regained and restored
his holdings. [His] education included a
course of study at the University of Edinburgh, and he was a fine singer. Mississippi in the early days was no place
for a timid man, and John was known for his quick temper and ability to defend
himself. He was elected constable in
Rodney, in 1865, and once had to kill a man in self-defence. It used to be said: 'The Mackies can do anything.'" Marriage records of Jefferson Co., MS, of
1868, p. 141, record the marriage of "Belle" Winters on 27 Feb 1868.
