The land had previously been owned by Isaac Tinsley Sr., the deceased father-in-law of both men, whose wives, Seney (Tinsley) Powell and Rhody (Tinsley) Whitney were sisters. The land in the transaction bordered the land of Isaac Tinsley's widow, Jane (Lee) Tinsley, the sisters' mother. Our transcription of the deed follows:

In the case of James W. Gorin, Guardian for Elizabeth Carver, Martha Ann Carver, James L. Carver and Mary T. Carver, the minor children of Elisha Carver, deceased, against Louisa Carver, Elisha's widow, and John T. Rogers, defendants, the court found for the defendants. Gorin was directed by the Court to convey, on behalf of the children, their interest, exclusive of the widow's Dower, in the land in the Bill to John T. Rogers, purchaser under the decree. Our transcription of the indenture, recorded on 9 October 1851 in Barren County, follows:

This indenture witnesseth that, whereas the Barren Circuit Court at the September Term 1850 in the case of J. W. Gorin, Guardian for Elizabeth, Martha Ann, James L. and Mary T.

Carver (exclusive of the widow’s Dower) in and to the land in the Bill and decree to John T. Rogers, purchaser under the decree aforesaid, for and on the part of the infant Wards aforesaid. Said land is described in a survey, that was filed in the case, that was made by James Scrivner on the 25th and 26th February 1848 as surveyed when the Dower of said Louisa Carver was assigned to her.

The Dower is bounded as follows: Beginning at two poplars, corner of Samuel Whitney, on the bank of Peters Creek, thence S 57 W, 50 W 40 poles to a sugar tree and beech, S 12½ W (south) 27 poles to a beech on a branch, Whitney’s corner, thence S 48 ½ E 134 poles to a poplar, beech and ash on the hill side, S 60 E 84 poles to two beeches on a ridge and corner to the whole tract, N 20 E 56 poles to a black gum, N 77 W 44 poles to a small beech, N 31 W 78 poles to a beech (down) at the head of a spring, N 32 W 42 poles to a sugar tree, Britt’s corner, on the Creek, thence with the Creek to the beginning, containing 76 acres.

Now, in consideration of the premises, I James W. Gorin, Commissioner, do hereby on the part of said infants, convey their interests in the above-described land (exclusive of the widow’s Dower) to John T. Rogers and agree, on the part of said infants, forever to warrant and defend the title in the interest aforesaid to said bounds to said John T. Rogers his heirs and assigns forever against the claim or claims of all persons claiming under them, but this warrant is only to extend to the assets descended to said infants from their father.

The order was given under the hand and seal of James W. Gorin as Commissioner on the 9th day of October 1851, and was recorded in Barren County, Kentucky on 24 March 1852.10

Guardianship*24 December 1694 After their father died on 8 Dec 1694, the probate court appointed, on 24 December 1694, his brother Thomas Whittemore as three-year-old Daniel's guardian.2 
King William's War*24 September 1710During the French Wars, called in North America, King William's War, Daniel was on a list of soldiers of Lieutenant Colonel Ballantine's company who returned to Boston after the sinking of the transport ship, Caesar, lost at Port Royal, Nova Scotia Province, Canada, on 24 September 1710.3 
Marriage*19 May 1715He married first Mary Turell, daughter of Samuel Turell and Lydia Stoddard, on 19 May 1715 in Boston, Suffolk County, Massachusetts Bay Province (New England).4,3 
Occupation*He was a joiner, or skilled carpenter, in Boston.3 
Biographical Info*Daniel was a shiftless fellow, who would not support his wife and children. In fact, it appears he deserted them only a few years after his marriage. His trip to Nova Scotia as a youth in the army must have given him a great liking for that province, as he turned up there, in Halifax, working as a carpenter many years later, having lost all contact with his sons long since. It was probably a good thing, for they became fine men, whereas Daniel, himself, was the black sheep of the family in that period.3 
Death*1757He died in late 1757 in Halifax, Nova Scotia Province, Canada.3
