The following letter of 1824 was addressed to Charles McCutchan-Johnstone (later known as Charles ~McJohnston), who was the first settler at MC:Cutchanville, Indiana, in 1819. It was written to him by his sister-in-law, Ameha Fox McCutchan-Johnstone, from the Foxbrook estate in County Meath, and dated March 29, 1824.
My very dear and much beloved brother- I embrace the opportunity of one of our workmen going out to America to write to you. I received your letter a few days ago. It was a welcome letter indeed: It brought us the pleasing news of you and your family being in good health and that poor, still dear, tho unfortunate, Robert is alive.
'Twas reported in this country he was dead. 'Tis almost a year and half since his last letter to me. I wrote several to both you and to him and sent them to Dublin to a person I thought would have got them sent either to England or America, but I believe they were never sent. I have lived the last year at Foxbrook with my family. I have been greatly tossed by the lease of Goshen dropping. There was so much rent due at the time. I moved my furniture. Thot I might try to get a valuation for the timber for which (except the young ones) there was no registry. His Lordship has agreed to allow me a valuation for them when I am leaving. This which I have taken at 30 per acre (as tenant at will, for he gives no lease to anyone), and I am to pay the arrears at 20 pounds half yearly until all is paid. Not knowing what to do or where to get a place cheaper. Indeed I tried, and as bad as Goshen is I could get no place that would answer me so well- for living so far from Corboy was a ruinous thing. Many a time this year I have sighed and wished I was living near you. To describe all my mind and body has suffered since I saw you would be to much for me.
I feel a hope when my boys have their professions that we will go and settle in your country. My son Matthew is in his second year in the college, and Robert is studying surgery. I have no doubt but he will be one of the most leading men in his profession. They are both very sensible well minded gentlemanly stout fellows and well looking. Matthew is six foot four inches- Robert beyond six feet, very clever and reckoned very handsome- but he is better than handsome- he is most proper in his conduct as they all are thank God.
Andrew is the same industrious laborious fellow and has little for it. He is a good brother and obedient son. He would gladly go to America if he could, but I can’t grant him leave until his
brothers are ready. Their professions will support them as gentlemen anywhere. I am told America is a good place for their professions.
My girls are almost quite grown up and improved. I doubt not they could keep a boarding school in some of the cities of America, for to do country work they would not like. I should like the country. I am fond of industry, and I think they would anything to serve themselves. I am sorry to find you do not have not the advantages of religious society, which from your letter I would suppose. Could you not have the Methodist preachers to visit you ? I could not be anywhere I could not have the people of God to visit me and associate with. I think if I was near you I would strive in the name of God to have the to have a neighborhood flaming with the glory of God. Oh my dear brother, betake yourself to prayer. Resist in the name of your redeemer all temptation.
‘It’s only He can keep you from sin. You cannot keep yourself. Cry mightily to him and he will save you from the tempter, and become a preacher in your family -both by example and precept. By and by you will you will be called on to give an account of your stewardship. May you by divine grace be enabled to be a faithful one- Giving God all the glory. I wish you had a religious wife- one about your own age that would be satisfied to give up all her time and interest herself for the spiritual as well as the temporal advantages of you and your children. Such an one is not easy found. I have been looking all around me everywhere I could think of and say I know no one I could recommend and that would be satisfied to go to America. One has just struck my mind at this moment.
‘Tis likely you may not approve of her. You know her I believe. She is not handsome and rather old- but she is an industrious person rather gentlewoman like and that might be an advantage to your daughters. She has been among the Methodists. I don’t know whether she is now. She is Jack Bickerstaff’s sister and always lives with him- but has a daughter of a very amicable character only I fear you would not get her to go to America, and she might bring a young family that would clash with the interests of the other children.
Therefore it is my duty on that hand to be silent - but if you could come over we would try to get you one your mind for it is not good good for a man to be alone. My very dear Charles I have your interest much at heart and should be glad to see you happily settled both for time and eternity- the woman I mention is both agreeable and notable. I think she must be beyond 40. You must have seen Ally Bickerstaff. I only mention her as she struck my mind since I began to write and never before. If you would not like the idea laugh at it. Write soon and and tell me candidly. Your children as they are of a large greed must be by this time pretty well grown. I fear the want of female society must be a great loss to them- both male and female should be refined, but when females are not it is a sad thing. Give my love to them. Let them have useful improving books to read if you can. Give my love also to Mrs. Hilliard. You did not mention in your last how she is doing. Tell her for me to prepare for eternity. I hope you have family worship with your family night and morn.
My brother Wm. Has a prospect of getting out of his difficulties. He has six sons and two daughters and will soon have the addition of another child. Mathilda has six children. She and Creighton are beginning to do better. I have not seen her since her trip to America. Wm. Goslin is now agent to Lord Froman, he was Colonel Barrey, and as Creighton lives on the estate he has been friendly to him and got him —-(a portion of the letter here is missing).
Amelia McCutchan-Johnstone
March 1824
(PS) - I will write soon again if I get an opportunity. The Douglases are preparing to go. There are numbers going from this neighborhood this year. All that can go are determined to go. Billy Kennedy would gladly take out his family, but is not quite able. He hopes he may at a future period. Tom Gardner intends going in June. So Will Wm. Gardner if he can accomplish it. If I were to set out I think there would be a great many would wish to come with me. Write to know is Robt. Indeed alive or why he does not write to his family-and let me know. My family are still at Foxbrook until May. Only Andrew is here with me. He desires his love to you and yours. Your brother James is doing very well in Longford. He says you lost your-( )- by going to America. So you will see how people differ in their opinion. The fellow who carries this is a hard working well behaved individual. His name is James Taylor. I desire him to put this in the post at New York.
Note: Charles McCutchan-Johnstone had married Maria Fox of Foxbrook, a sister to Amelia, the writer of the above letter, but Maria died shortly before Charles set out for America, so at the time he received this letter at McCutchanville he was a widower. “Still dear though unfortunate “ Robert ( who was not known to be dead or alive) was Amelia’s husband, a brother to Charles. Robert McCutchan-Johnstone came to America but disappeared and it is believed that he died in Philadelphia. Amelia and her son, Robert, eventually came to America and settled in Cleveland, Ohio, where Robert set up a medical practice using the name, Dr. Robert Johnstone. The Mrs. Hilliard mentioned was Charles’s eldest sister, the former Elizabeth McCutchan, who had come from Granard in County Longford, Ireland, in 1819 and settled north of McCutchanville.

Ancestors of James McCutchan who may have been a close relative of historical persons.
James McCutchan's great grandfather, William McCutchan Sr. William was born in Ireland. William's sister was Elizabeth McJohnstone, also known as Elizabeth McCutchan, their parents were Andrew McCutchan and Margaret Johnstone. She married John Hilliard, and was known in the United States as Elizabeth Hilliard. When she was a little girl, she attended church with her parents. They were friends of the Wesleyan minister,the Reverend John Wesley.
While they were at church one Sunday, Elizabeth wore a bow on her bonnet. Mr Wesley inquired “Is it a bow upon Betty?”, which was taken , Arad McCutchan reflected, as a reproof for undue gaiety in dress.
A note here on another line, the White family appears as an ancestor. We are also related to John Henry William White b 1602 , known as Elder John White. My 10th great grandfather. We thought we were also related to the Reverend John White b 1596- 1684, who was related to the Wesley family by marriage, but no definite connection has been made yet.
On the Ross side of the family, James Rounds was a private in the Massachusetts Continental Army. My 5th great grandfather. His brothers, Mark and Lemuel also served in the Revolutionary War. Lemuel was also reportedly a body guard for General George Washington. It was also reported that there was dissolving of the guards and reinstatement due to a plot which was discovered to kill General George Washington.
A newspaper article which quoted the Court Records of Massachusetts, Vol. 34, page 588, which lists all the men who served together was printed in the Biddeford Weekly Journal published March 17,1916 Biddeford, York County, Maine. (Maine was part of Massachusetts at one time).
The uncle of the Rounds brothers, Theodore Rounds was also listed.
Another relative, John Angus McDonald,b 1727 in Scotland. 1st cousin 8 times removed. The grandson of Lieutenant Joseph Young, had served in the Jacobite Rebellion From 1745 to 1746 and fled to America,then served from 1746- 1776 in the French and Indian War for Great Britain and later in the Revolutionary War.
A relative from the Clay family, Richard Clay Jr. My 6th great grandfather served as a private in Captain John Elden’s Company which marched on April 24, 1775 to Biddeford.
His father, Richard Clay b 1718 (per wikitree) Served in Captain Joseph Woodman's of Narragansett #1 from August 29,1757 to 31 October 1757, 9 weeks and 1 day. Narragansett is now Buxton, Maine.
A relative from the Pennell family. Joseph Pennell Sr. b 1747, grandson of Thomas Pennell and Sarah Durrell, Joseph is my 1st cousin 7 times removed, he served in the Revolutionary War.
A relative of the Lobingier family, Christopher Lobingier Jr. b 1741, My 6th great grandfather, was a delegate to the constitutional convention of Pennsylvania. See Josiah Van Kirk Thompson Journal #25 page 507, dated 1913.
An ancestor of Richard Clay Jr.’ wife, Rachelle Pennell, Sarah Pease was related to the husband of the Sara Pease who was accused of witchcraft in Salem, Massachusetts.
Sara’s husband was Robert Pease his father was Robert Pease, the same father as his half-sister Sarah Pease,
Sarah Pease was married to John Sampson.
Sara Pease, accused of witchcraft, is the wife of my 9th great uncle.
This next person is a relative of my ancestor William Ross.
Lieutenant Hardy Pierce b 1756 served in Revolutionary War killed at Fort Lee , New Jersey.
See the Biography of Henry Agustus Pierce.
He is related through Thomas Moore, these persons are not in my database.
The next person is from the Garey/Gerry family, James Gerry b 1737 also known as James Garey. He is my 6th great grand uncle. His parents were John Garey and Abigail Thompson. He is the brother of Abigail Sarah Gary who was married to Joseph Rounds.
James served in the Revolutionary War. He Enlisted July 10, 1779.
The next relative is Thomas Abbott or Ensign Thomas Abbott b 1643 was a blacksmith and served in a militia.
There were two others but they were extended so far I could not list the generations.
Benjamin Elwell b 1733
Served in the Revolutionary War under Captain Lane.
His Son John Elwell b 1746
Served as a drummer in the 6th Massachusetts in the Revolutionary War.
As I search for these lines back into Europe I may find more historical figures in Europe.
