Mary Ann Starkey and Philip were married 08-Feb-1842, in the presence of John and David N. Hanselpacker, as well as James Starkey. She was from Johnston, Queens County, New Brunswick, Canada, at the time of their marriage. REF: "Queens County, New Brunswick Marriages Volume A , 1812-1861" by R. Wallace Hale, Heritage Books, 1986. This is the Mary A. who appears in the census records with Philip, as she was the mother of his children, NOT Mary (A.) Slip(p). Nor, do I believe, Charlotte Slipp was ever married to Philip, though I do leave some room for error on my part, should another Philip prove to have been alive at the same time and in the same place(s). Mary is quite likely a descendant (prob. grandaughter) of Mordecai Starkey, UEL, b. NJ on 4-Jul-1757. Mordecai & Mary (Akerly) Starkey had a several sons. The eldest was Obediah/Obadiah, who married Ann Cole (b. 1799, dau. of David Cole - UEL & Deliverance Parker) and this couple (who married just before 1820) is the most likely to have been Mary Ann's parents. The first "recorded" daughter, born to Obediah and Ann was Pamela, in 1828, but it is evidenced in the source quoted by Gayle, that she had three sisters born before her. The fact that "Ann" is Mary's middle name, gives a bit more credence to the possibility that she was, in fact, likely their first born daughter.
In an online reproduction of an 1840 document (SOURCE: "Acts of the General Assembly of Her Majesty's Province of New Brunswick, Passed in the Year 1840. Fredericton: Printed by John Simson, Printer To The Queen's Most Excellent Majesty, MDCCCXL - CAP LX - An Act to provide for opening and repairing Roads and erecting Bridges throughout this Province. - Queens County Bye Roads"), are the following selected entries (amongst MANY others):
Ten pounds for the road from James Starkey's to John Secord's.
Ten pounds for the road from the mouth of Long Creek to Obadiah Starkey's.
Ten pounds for the road from Oliver Starkey's to David Phillips'.
Ten pounds for the road from John Starkey's to Mordecai Starkey's.
Note fm Gayle:
"Well -- you made me go back and review my information and see something that I hadn't seen before. Or I should say, I had seen it but I had overlooked the significance. Are you familiar with "Vital Statistics from New Brunswick Newspapers" (a search & extract service offered by Daniel F. Johnson)? I got this done a couple of years ago on the Starkey name. There is one item in there reporting the death of Pamela Starkey on 15 April 1853. It also says that she was age 25, and fourth d/o Obadiah Starkey. The part of that I had overlooked was "fourth". This Pamela (born in 1828) was the first child I had listed for Obediah. He obviously had 3 daughters born before 1828 -- maybe one of those could have been a Mary Ann. Of course this is just guesswork, but maybe it will give you a place to start looking. Like I said earlier, the other sons who married did so from 1830 on -- so Obediah is the only possibility that I see. Please let me know if you find anything further on this. Good luck in your research."
Obediah Sr. was born in 1796 in Queens County. He married Ann Cole in 1819 in Queens County. Ann was b. in 1797, and died in July 9, 1852 in Codys, Queens County at the youngish age of 55. Obediah then married a widow, Mrs. Sarah E. Cosman (b. @ 1822) some time after that - and they had a child, Elijah Llewellyn Starky (b. @1856). In the 1861 Census of Johnston Parish, Queens County, there are two daughters still living with Obadiah and his 2nd wife, they are: Naomi - b. @1832, and Abigail - b. @1836. So, Obediah PROBABLY married Sarah between 1853 and 1855.
Obediah and Ann had 4 children, as far as I know:
Obediah Jr. , b. July 4, 1820
Pamela b. abt 1828 - d. 15 Mar 1853
Abigail b. abt 1834 - d. 25 Aug 1891
Solomon b. abt 1840 - d. 10 Mar 1853
Note the gap between 1820 and 1828. This is rumored to have been filled with three daughters (not sure of any sons), as another researcher who has interest in Pamela found that she was mentioned as "fourth daughter of..." This gives some credence to the possibilty that Mary Ann was born "About 1820", as it could easily have been 1821!
Mordecai Starkey and Mary A(c)kerly were married in Gagetown Anglican on 27-Apr-1797.
