Notes

Inman Family - Wyoming Valley, Luzerne Co., Pennsylvania

The "History of Hanover" by Plurub, page 434, says Elijah Inman was born in Connecticut in 1718, came to Hanover previous to the Wyoming Massacre with a large family, there being seven sons, the youngest 15 at the time of the massacre".

"A History of Wilkesbarre and Wyoming Valley". II, 1110 by Oscar J. Harvey, 1909, says Elijah Inman, Sr. was born in either Connecticut or Rhode Island in 1718, and in 1775 he came with his wife, Susanna and children to the Wyoming Valley and settled in Hanover Township.
His name appears on the tax lists for 1776, 77, 78, 80, and 81.
After the battle of Wyoming he fled from the valley with his wife and younger children, but returned a few months later to find his house and barn burnt, his cattle missing and most of his crops destroyed. --died in Hanover township February 7, 1804, aged 86.

"They were the parents of the following named: Elijah--, Richard b. about 1759, Israel, David--, John b. about 1758, Isaac b. 1760 and Edward b. 1763."

The "History of Luzerne County, Pennsylvania", 350 says: "The Inmans, a family conspicuous in the days that were so dark and troubled here for the number of it's name that gave their lives as a sacrifice. Five brothers went to the battle of Wyoming. --two lay dead on the ground, three escaped, but Richard from overheat and swimming the river, returned home only to die in a few weeks from disease contracted thereby. There were seven brothers, two remained at home that day because they could not secure arms; one Isaac, was 19 and the other a mere lad, both of whom would have been at the bloody sacrifice except for the fact stated. The parents were aged at the time, and it was doubly necessary for the two youths to be with them, as the fates turned the battle and caused the following exodus. Elijah and Israel were killed in battle. Richard Inman saved the life of Rufus Bennett in the retreat by shooting the Indian who was in hot chase after him.
Isaac--was ambushed and killed by the Indians the following winter."

"History of Wyoming, Pennsylvania, 1845, App.26, by Charles Miner, gives a similar account and "the Poetry and History of Wyoming", 1869, 252 by William L. Stone gives a 2 1/2 page account of the four killed.

DIED: Inman - At his home in the town of Washington, Sauk Co, Wis, November 11, 1883, Mr. R. S. Inman, aged 74 years and 9 months.
He leaves a wife and nine children with many friends to mourn his loss. He came with his family from Pennsylvania to Rock County, Wisconsin in 1841, where he resided fourteen years, and then moved to Sauk County, where he resided until his death.

From the Free Press, Reedsburg, Wisconsin December 6, 1883.

Richard Inman

Last night another of Rock county?s pioneers was called to his reward and his family was left to mourn. The deceased, Richard Inman, was about ninety years old, and had until very recently enjoyed reasonably good health. His death was caused by severe cold contracted a number of days ago, and which settled on his lungs. He was well known in Rock county, as a successful farmer, and a good citizen and his death will be sincerely mourned. Besides a wife he leaves a family of two sons and two daughters, a son and daughter having preceded him over the dark river. No time has been fixed for the funeral which will be held at this late home in Afton as soon as the relatives can be notified.
