  • Name Zacheus WALWORTH  [1, 2, 3
    • Zacheus first settled at Adams, New York. Evert's history of Jeffsrson County, New York, page 242, mentions Zacheus Walworth as having taken up land Dec. 1, 1799. The actual deeds, however, were not given to any settler until 1802. His name also appears twice in the County Clerk's Office of Jefferson Co. (book of 1820, page 14) for sale of land in Rodman, New York.

      The book "Council of Appointments - Military records" year 1784-1821, Vol. 1,p page 573 states Zacheus was an Ensign in 1802.

      Zacheus was a lawyer and practiced in Adams and Watertown, New York. He was well known as a shrewd business man and had an infinite fund of humor. He always strived to keep people out of court and to settle their troubles among themselves. He is said to have been the first to bring a cooking stove into town.

      Zacheus died while attending Court at Watertown, New York, and is buried in the cemetery near the old farm in the Town of Rodman. [1]
