Philip AINSWORTH died April 22, 1850 [Prince Edward or Northumberland?]

_TODO:
Philip AINSWORTH died April 22, 1850 [Prince Edward or Northumberland?]

Birth:
Since he died in 1854 aged 83, his birth year was calculated as circa 1771.

Family:
"Philip was the fourteenth and last child born to Daniel Ainsworth. Daniel was married twice. Philip was the fourth child borne by his father's second wife, Elizabeth Corbin, of Worchester, Massachusetts."

Name:
"He was named after his grandfather, Philip Corbin."

Immigration:
"Philip's father, Daniel, suffered financial losses in the period after the Revolution had ended. This led Daniel and his remaining young family to migrate westward to the wilds of New York state along the Hudson River valley." The family settled for a time near Albany, New York. Philip spend his remaining youthful years in that area.

Census:
He was enumerated on the 1800 USA census - reel 25 of Microfilm series M32, page 4

Moved:
"About 1800 Philip and Mary moved to a more remote and undeveloped area of New York State that was still considered Indian Territory, in the neighbourhood of Watertown, Jefferson County."

Family:
After his wife, Mary, died, he met and married a widow, Joanna Whitney Burr. Since Joanna had a family as well, they had a combined family of children, and also had children together.

Occupation:
"The clearing of four hundred acres left a large amount of wood ash; he decided at once to use it (along with what he could purchase from neighbouring pioneers) in the establishing of potash works in the township. This industry he combined with farming, and raised large quanitities of grain".

Travel:
"During this period Philip had the opportunity to visit Canada and came back very enthused by what he saw, particularly in Prince Edward County."

Emigration:
Philip J. Ainsworth says that "Pioneer Life on the Bay of Quinte, page 104, states that he emigrated to Canada in 1815, but his citizenship in Canada came in 1830 and states that he had been in Canada 7 years at that time, making his arrival in 1823 more likely."

Moved:
"During this period Philip had the opportunity to visit Canada and came back very enthused by what he saw, particularly in Prince Edward County. He decided to move his family to Upper Canada and they made the move in 1823."

Residence:
[This location is today near highway 62 and Oram Road, south of Christian Street.]

Occupation:
"Philip developed a business of making potash from the ashes of trees burned during the clearing of land for farming. Potash was in great demand in the major cities and in England for the making of soap and lye."

Residence:
"However, he soon discovered that Isaac Williams had made a prior claim of this particular property." [This land is on what is now Victoria Road.]

Residence:
"He continued in Sophiasburgh, until after the marriage of his son Henry, when he removed to Brighton".

Residence:
"By 1830 Philip had dexided to make a more permanet location and signed a formal lease on 100 acres of Clergy Reserve land in Hillier Township." [Today this location is found on the Town Line Road just north of the hamlet of Allisonville.] "This site became the location of the first Ainsworth homestead in Prince Edward County. It remained in the family for nearly one hundred years and is still used as a home today."

Moved:
"By this time their eldest survving son, Cornelius, had started his own farm in Hillier Township (on what is now Burr Road) and the second surviving son, Henry, had taken over the homestead near Allisonville. Philip and Joanna's son, Eli, was soon to take over the farm they purchased in Cramahe."

Residence:
Census of 1841: The family inclueded 2 males over 16 (likely Philip and son Eli), 2 females over 16 (likely 2nd wife, Joanna, and Philip's daughter, Annie - not married), and 1 male under 16 - "this is a mystery as Philip & Joanna did not have any children born in 1825 or later. Possibly Annie had a child out of wedlock (she was 16 in 1832). Eli did not marry until 1847 when he was 29."

Residence:
Census 1848: The family included 1 male 60 or over (Philip), 1 female 45 or over (Joanna), 1 female above 5 and under 14, 2 single males between 18 and 20. [Who were the younger people?] One person was born in Canada, and 4 people were born in the United States.

Philip married Joanna WHITNEY about 1815 in Watertown, Jefferson County, New York, United States. Joanna was born about 1789; died in 1874. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
