Marcus Palmer, Sr.

Parents

Biographical Note	Marcus Palmer Sr. was a United Empire Loyalist. His father's first name is unknown, but his widowed mother Mary married William Lawrence when Marcus was three years old. When he was fifteen, Marcus, his mother and his step-father were refugees on the Commerce, a ship in the July 1783 fleet. In 1789 two important events in his life occurred. When court was in session at Gagetown 14 January 1789, it appointed Joseph Nickerson and 21 year old Marcus Palmer constables for the Parish of Hampstead for the year. Later in 1789, when he was 22 years old, Marcus Palmer married. Rev.Richard Clarke of Gagetown's Saint John Anglican Church recorded "Waterborough Oct. 25 1789. Married Marcus Palmer and Anne Slocum, both of Hampstead, but were married at Mr. Wiggins in the above Parish". Both Ann and Marcus were Quakers, but a Quaker wedding was not legal in New Brunswick at that time. Ann Slocum's older sister was married to a good Anglican, Jacob Wiggins U.E. So their home at Grand Lake in the Parish of Waterborough was used for the wedding. There is a dress sword on display in Jones House, King's Landing Historical Settlement, near Kingsclear, N.B., although the true origin of the sword is not known. The sword was won at the estate auction of Arlie Palmer by the Kings Landing Historical Settlement. Arlie claimed that the sword was originally owned by Gideon Palmer of Dorchester, New Brunswick, and that Gideon was the father of Marcus Palmer of Queens County. There has never been found any evidence that Gideon ever visited the Palmers of Hampstead, Queens County, New Brunswick. Gideon had a son named Marcus, and he has been confused with the Queens County Marcus, most notably in print by Othniel Merritt. This dress sword most likely was owned by William Lawrence, second husband of Mary Palmer. Palmer dress sword handle 2 Palmer dress sword 3 This dress sword was last owned by Arlie Palmer of Central Hampstead. He claimed, as does Kings Landing Historical Settlement, that this sword was owned originally by Gideon Palmer Sr. of Dorchester. It was most likely handed down from the Queens County Palmers, as there is no proof that Gideon ever visited the Palmer Loyalist farm in Central Hampstead. Palmer dress sword handle

Will	Marcus Palmer, Sr., left a will on 14 December 1820 in Hampstead, Queens County, New Brunswick, CanadaG. The following was transcribed from a photographed copy of a document held at the Gagetown Archives, Gagetown, NB. There are several instances where 'PALMER' is spelled 'PARLMER' in this document. This alternate spelling is also to be found on markers in the Palmer Family Cemetery in Central Hampstead. Palmer, Marcus - Will Made 1820 - Filed 1822 Marcus Palmer UE. made his will 14 December 1820, more than a year before he died 28 April 1822. It was filed in the Queens County Registry Office in Gagetown 25 June 1822. He bequeathed: - to wife ANN (SLOCUM), all my household furniture during her natural life, and then be divided among my three daughters at her discretion. To my wife the use of my house and a comfortable maintenance from the produce of my Lands which shall not be sold during her widowhood, and half the stock. - to son WILLIAM PARLMER his heirs and assigns 10 shillings. - to the rest of my sons, CHARLES, MARCUS, DANIEL, and JOSEPH 180 pounds each. - to son STEPHEN 200 pounds. - to daughter SARAH 50 pounds. - to daughter MARY WATSON 30 pounds. - to daughter SUSANNAH ANN 25 pounds. - In case of any accident among my children that shall leave them incapable of getting their living, I will they be supported out of my estate. - In case any of my children die without lawful issue, his part shall be divided among my children in proportion to the sum annexed to their names.

Birth	Jacob Sunderlin Palmer was born on 2 March 1805, in Queens County, New Brunswick, CanadaG.1,2
Death	He died on 20 February 1818 in Hampstead, Queens County, New BrunswickG. Othniel Merritt had a birth date of 2 Mar 1805. Tombstone said he was 15 when he died.3
Burial	He was buried in the Palmer Cemetery, Central Hampstead, Queens County, New Brunswick, CanadaG. Inscription: Here Lise The / Body of Jacob / Sunderlin Par / lmer Who Depa / rted this Life / February The 20 / In The Thirteenth / Year of His Age - 1818. The tombstone was analysed by AI using ChatGPT, with the following notes: “LISE” is what the stone actually appears to say in the first line. It is presumably a variant or spelling error for “LIES.” The surname is PALMER . The stone divides PALMER across two lines: “PAR” / “LMER.” The inscription is recorded elsewhere (this web site was sourced) as: “Here Lise The / Body of Jacob / Sunderlin Par / lmer Who Depa / rted this Life / February The 20 / In The Thirteenth / Year of His Age - 1818.” This identifies him as Jacob Sunderlin Palmer, born in 1805 and buried in the Palmer Cemetery at Central Hampstead, Queens County, New Brunswick. The inscription indicates that he died February 20, 1818 , in the thirteenth year of his age . The unusual spelling and the line breaks are worth preserving in a genealogical transcription, so I would not silently correct “LISE” to “LIES”.3 Tombstone, Jacob Sunderlin Palmer (1805-1818). Inscription: Here Lise The / Body of Jacob / Sunderlin Par / lmer Who Depa / rted this Life / February The 20 / In The Thirteenth / Year of His Age - 1818
