John Cree (of Barree Township, PA) was born on 23 October 1746 in in the vicinity of, Belfast, Ireland. He was most likely born near Donaghadee or Newtownards in County Down.¹ He was the son of Male#2 Cree.

Very little is known about the early life of John Cree. It had been a family tradition among some of his descendants that he was born in New Jersey and that his parents came from County Down, Ireland. However, when I was a young boy, my old uncle, Harry W. Cree (1857-1937), often told me that his grandfather, David Cree (1795-1871), had told him many times that his father, John Cree, was born in County Down, Ireland in the vicinity of Belfast. Furthermore, John Cree's youngest daughter Anne states in the 1870 Federal Census that her father was foreign born. My uncle Harry Cree also told me that his grandfather told him on numerous occasions that his father John and the David Cree who lived in Dublin Township, Huntingdon County, Pa. were brothers and that they often visited each other while John was still living in Huntingdon County. As a matter of fact, a recent (2005) DNA match confirms the fact that at some point in time, John and David Cree had indeed shared a common ancestor. Most, if not all, of the other Cree branches that migrated to Pennsylvania prior to 1800 had originated in Northern Ireland. The names of John's parents or any further information on their whereabouts has never been established.

The earliest recorded date of information that I have on John Cree is apparently in 1778 when we find a John Cree on the tax lists of Rye Township, Cumberland County, Pa. He is listed at this time as a 'married taxable.' Also during this same year he served in the Revolutionary War as a private in the 7th Battalion of the Cumberland County Militia. Shortly after this time, he apparently moved to Hamilton Township, Cumberland (now Franklin) County where he is shown in the 1780 tax lists and where he served in the 5th Battalion of the Cumberland County Militia from August of 1780 through June of 1781. While still living in Hamilton Township, Cumberland County, John Cree evidently bought property in Barree Township, Bedford (now Huntingdon) County, Pa. In 1783, he is shown in the Bedford County assessment lists as being a non-resident taxable of Barree Township.

Soon after 1783, John Cree apparently left Hamilton Township, Cumberland County and settled on this Barree Township property which was located along the East Branch of the Standing Stone Creek in what is now Jackson Township, northern Huntingdon County. He is shown at that time on the tax assessment lists as owning 150 acres of land. About this same time, David Cree also left Hamilton Township, Cumberland County and settled on land in Dublin Township, Bedford County, in what is now southern Huntingdon County (see first paragraph). While living in Barree Township, John Cree served as the township tax collector in 1792, also as a township constable in 1792 and as a township road supervisor in 1793. He also served in the Huntingdon County Militia and was a member of the Manor Hill Presbyterian Church. He continued to reside on his Barree Township homestead until about 1805 when he, with his entire family, migrated a few miles westward to Beccaria Township, Clearfield County, Pa., in the vicinity of what is now the village of Glen Hope. He remained in this location until his death in 1824.

The maiden name of John Cree's wife is unknown although we do know from various records that her first name was Jane (or Janet). John Cree and his wife were the parents of at least six known children. The location of the gravesites of John and Jane Cree are unknown, although it can be presumed that they are buried somewhere in Beccaria Township, Clearfield County, where they both died.

It might be noted here that most Cree researchers have assumed that the John Cree shown in the 1778 tax and military records of Rye Township, Cumberland County, was a son of Robert Cree, Sr. and his wife, Janet Hamilton who also lived and were taxed in Rye Township during the Revolutionary War years. They had at least several known sons who served in the Cumberland County Militia during the War. However, there is no documented proof that this John Cree was one of these sons or if, in fact, Robert Cree, Sr. ever had a son John. He never listed a son John in his will. Furthermore, there is only a difference of 14 years between the ages of Robert, Sr. (born 1732) and the John Cree (born 1746) whose record is shown here, so it is practically impossible for them to have been father and son.

It is reasonably well established that David Cree (of Dublin Township PA) and John Cree (of Barree Township, PA) were brothers. The evidence comes from family legends of both lines.

Robert H Cree, a descendant of John Cree, has written:

When I was a young boy, my old uncle, Harry W. Cree (1857-1937), often told me that his grandfather, David Cree (1795-1871), had told him many times that his father, John Cree (of Barree Township, PA), was born in County Down, Northern Ireland in the vicinity of Belfast. Furthermore, John Cree's youngest daughter Anne states in the 1870 Federal Census that her father was foreign born. My uncle Harry Cree also told me that his grandfather told him on numerous occasions that his father John and the David Cree who lived in Dublin Township, Huntingdon County, Pa. were brothers and that they often visited each other while John was still living in Huntingdon County. As a matter of fact, a recent (2005) DNA match confirms the fact that at some point in time, John and David Cree had indeed shared a common ancestor.

Robert H Cree has also researched the line of David Cree (of Dublin Township PA) where the same family story was told:

According to a long standing family tradition, held by some of the older descendants of David Cree, he was born in this country, possibly in New Jersey, and that he was a brother of John Cree of Barree Township, Huntingdon County, Pa.

The Cree yDNA Project has established that there was a close relationship between John and David Cree. They were found to be either brothers or first cousins.³

John Cree (of Barree Township, PA) married Jane Cree (married name) in (probably) Cumberland (now Perry) County, Pennsylvania, USA.

John Cree (of Barree Township, PA) died on 6 March 1824 in Beccaria, Twp., Clearfield County, Pennsylvania, USA. He was buried in Beccaria Twp., Clearfield County, Pennsylvania, USA.

Jane Cree (married name) was buried in Beccaria Twp., Clearfield County, Pennsylvania, USA. She was born in 1756.

Jane Cree (married name) married John Cree (of Barree Township, PA), son of Male#2 Cree, in (probably) Cumberland (now Perry) County, Pennsylvania, USA.

William Cree William Cree and his wife Mary are probably buried in the Heggarty's Crossroads Cemetery in Beccaria Twp., Clearfield County, Pa. This cemetery was not far from their place of residence and it is known that William was one of the founders of the Presbyterian Church at that place. It is further known that David Cree, younger brother of William is buried in this cemetery.

It has always been an interesting point of conjecture as to why William Cree traveled nearly 250 miles from Clearfield County, Pa. in 1821, no doubt on horseback over primitive wilderness roads, to marry a young widow, Mary Holten Fuller, at Swedesboro, New Jersey. It would be interesting to know the circumstances under which he would have known of her existence and of how his contacts with her over such a great distance would have been sufficient for him to have proposed marriage. It is a known fact that a Holten family had, at an earlier date, settled in that same part of Clearfield County where William Cree's father had settled. It is quite possible that Mary Holten was related in some way to these Holtens who were possible neighbors, or at least acquaintances, of the Crees.


WILL OF WILLIAM CREE

No sooner had the news of Samuel Hollinghead's death been circulated than another horrible accident occurred. The victim of this accident was Mr. William Cree, residing on the top of Stone Creek hill. Mr. Cree had been hauling dirt from the streets ever since the beginning of the street making. On Thursday afternoon, shortly after one o'clock, Mr. Cree loaded his wagon with earth and drove to the rear of J.C. Blair's stationery establishment where he proceded to deposit it. While he stood on the double-trees dumping the load, a freight train came along which frightened the horses and caused them to run away. Mr. Cree tried to jump off but his feet slipped and he fell under the wagon, which passed over his stomach, killing him instantly. Mr. Cree was aged about 65 years and was a highly respected citizen. He is survived by three children. The funeral services have not yet been announced.
