• Petition for land: 2 Sep 1839, Toronto, York County, Upper Canada, Canada

Notes:

Petition for land:
John petitioned for land as the son of Betsey Hendricks, who was Elizabeth Trumpour, daughter of Loyalist John Trumpour. Betsey had petitioned for land in about 1817, but had not received any reply. She had "departed this life a short time thereafter", before they realized that the petition had been lost. John asked that a grant of 200 acres of land be made in the name of the late Betsey Hendricks. He was her "heir at law".
He likely went to Toronto to present the petition, but if says that he is "of Murray", that is Murray township, Newcastle District.
John includes a document from his maternal grandmother, Elizabeth Trumpour, who was the mother of Betsey Hendricks and the widow of John Trumpour. Archibald McFaul, commissioner, in Wellington, witnessed the document of Elizabeth Trumpour on September 9, 1839.
Also included was a document from John's father, James Hendricks, who described the original petition process, and that the petition was lost or mislaid. James described his son, John T. Hendricks, as Betsey's eldest surviving descendant. James' sworn statement was witnessed by J. N. Hurst, J. P. of the Home District, in Toronto, on September 3, 1839.
The petition was recommended and forwarded [to the Land Board?] on October 18, 1839.

Notes:

The 'three daughters [of John] married James, Meyer, and Richard Osborne, respectively, and settled in Sophiasburgh".

Emigration:
John and his brother, Paul, "came originally from Dutchess county, NY, and are undoubtedly of Dutch extraction".

Military:
"He belonged to the 1st Regiment of Ulster Militia in the Revolutionary War (see Brink, History of Saugerties)."

Land petition:
Richard Arless Flint found John Trumpour's petition for land in RG1, Manuscript Section, Public Archives of Canada, in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, on November 17, 1971.

Land:
"Green Point was formerly called Grassy Point. John Trumpour was the first settler there and kept a Public House, the first in the Township."

Burial:
[Since there were approximately 9 tombstones and footstones in this cemetery that were illegible, John Trumpour and his wife could be buried there.]

Burial:
John could be buried in the Top of the Hill cemetery. This burying ground "was located on County Road 15 (concession 1, SWGP, lot 40 (County Road 15) however nothing remains at the site. Permission was apparently received to build a house upon the property, and this still stands." The Wanamakers recorded 3 burials here. It is believed that the stones were transferred to Glenwood Cemetery, Picton.

Religion:
"At one time nearly all of the family [Trumpour] belonged to the Society of Friends".

Residence:
John's house at Grassy Point was recorded in Hans Waltimeyer's diary in 1797 as being a place where people stayed and where the Militia trained annually. In 1799, Waltimeyer mentions that Grassy Point used to be an Indian village. "Even though Trumpour's house is here now, they still come occasionally to stay a while".

Petition for land:
"John Trumpour, late of Esopus in the State of New York, prays to be admitted as a settler in this district and to have 200 acres of land assigned. He is brother to Paul Trumpour of Adolphus Town, settled under the Instructions of 1783 and, being otherwise a person of good character, a certificate is granted him for 200 acres and the oath of allegiance administered."

"The story is told that when Robert [Curlett] joined the American army his father-in-law, John Trumpour, a dedicated United Empire Loyalist, was so upset that he disowned the Curlett family and influenced the Government to expropriate Robert's land. To date, we have not been able to confirm or refute this story. However, circumstantial evidence tends to refute it. The four sons of Robert Emmet [Curlett] all stayed in the Green Point area. The second son, John [Curlett] lived on land close to where Robert's distillery was said to have been and on land owned by his grandfather."

John married Elizabeth B?HR in 1773 in New York, British Colonies in America.
