Tax & Census Records in Beaver County for the Gorrell Family (12 for '26)

Here is my last post about the Gorrell family for the month of July. I did not get as far as I had hoped, certainly not researching Amos Sr's wife, Leah Wollam's family, or James Jr's wife, Sarah Milholland's family. Perhaps I'll get to it next year.

This is the final installment about the tax and census records I found for Beaver County. The previous posts can be found here and here. I never found how these men acquired the land or how the land was disposed of. I learned that townships have local records and the next time I visit Pittsburgh for GRIP, I will take the time to visit Beaver County, particularly Ohioville and South Beaver.

After discussing the tax and census records for the two James Gorrells and their widows, I wrote a few paragraphs about the history of Beavery County book I found that mentioned James Gorrell in the early part of the county's history.

The Report*
I recorded the information from census and tax records from 1800 through 1841 for various Gorrell men and women. These were listed by year with some comments. I knew I needed to rearrange the material for better analysis and I had Claude.ai do this for me. It also did some of the analysis, but right now I am not copying the analysis. I am going to write my own. See “Something I learned from Chatting with AI” for why.

 From the 9 pages of data I recorded, the AI identified 14 individuals.

ID	Individual	Record span	Township(s)	Peak acres	Distinguishing marker
G1	James Gorrell, the elder	1800–1806	South Beaver	none	Landless; over 45 in 1800; empty nest
G2	Elizabeth Gorrell	1807–1814	South Beaver	none	Widow of G1; taxed on his horse and cow
G3	James Gorrell, the landholder	1800–1826	S. Beaver / Ohio	300	The 300-acre man; "Junr" then "Senr"
G4	Sarah Gorrell	1829–1835?	S. Beaver / Ohio	50	Widow of G3; later the "Widow Gorrel"
G5	James Gorrell, of the saw mill	1820–1826	South Beaver	100	The only Gorrell taxed on a saw mill
G6	James Gorrell, the younger	1814–1815	South Beaver	50	Received exactly the 50 acres G3 lost
G7	James Gorrell, the smith	1826–1837	Ohio	200	Trade recorded as smith in 1828
G8	John Gorrell	1821–1841	Ohio / S. Beaver	60	Single man 1821–22; longest continuous run
G9	Samuel Gorrell, shearer	1821–1835	Ohio	100	Single man 1821–22; trade recorded 1828
G10	Joseph Gorrell	1825–1832	Ohio / S. Beaver	100	Single man 1825; paired with Ruben Weats 1832
G11	Moses Gorrell	1825 only	Ohio	none	Single man 1825; never appears again
G12	Amos Gorrell	1826–1841	Ohio / S. Beaver	124	Single man 1826–27; gap 1829–1837
G13	Jesse Gorrell	1832–1836	S. Beaver / Ohio	99	Appears already landed — no freeman entry
G14	Thomas Gorrell(s)	1804; 1834	S. Beaver; Ohio	none	Two entries thirty years apart; likely two men

It then created a table for each individual. Following that was its analysis, which I’m going to skip at this time and record my observation for each table.

James, the elder.

Year	Twp.	Name as written	Land	Livestock	Reading
1800[1]	S.Bvr	James Gurl Senr (census)	—	—	1 male 45+, 1 female 45+. Born before 1755. No children at home.
1804[2]	S.Bvr	James Gorrel Sen	none	2 horses	Taxed on movables only. No real estate.
1805[3]	S.Bvr	James Gorrell Senr	none	1 horse, 1 cow	Herd reduced by one horse.
1806[4]	S.Bvr	James Gorrel Senr	—	—	Tax of $0.17. Consistent with a landless assessment.
1807[5]	S.Bvr	— absent —	—	—	Elizabeth appears in his place with the identical 1 horse, 1 cow.

He was listed as senior, while there was a younger James Gorrell in the area. He was over 45 years old in the 1800 census, along with the woman in his household. If over 45, they were born before 1755. No other people were in the household.

From 1804, the first tax record available to 1806, he was taxed only for livestock and not any real estate. In 1807, Elizabeth appeared in the tax record with the one horse and one cow. This suggests James has died between 1806 and 1807 and she is his widow.

Why did James Senior have no land? He was recorded as living in his own household in 1800, but could he had been living in a separate house on James Junior’s land?

Elizabeth Gorrell

Year	Twp.	Name as written	Land	Livestock	Reading
1807[6]	S.Bvr	Elizabeth Gorrell	none	1 horse, 1 cow	First appearance; inherits G1’s exact assessment.
1808[7]	S.Bvr	Elizabeth Gorrel	none	1 horse, 1 cow	Unchanged.
1809[8]	S.Bvr	Elizabeth Gorrell	none	1 horse, 1 cow	Unchanged.
1810[9]	S.Bvr	Eliza Gorrell (census)	—	—	Household of one female 45+. Born before 1765. Living alone.
1810[10]	S.Bvr	Elizabeth Gorrel	none	1 horse, 1 cow	Tax and census agree — an exact correlation.
1811[11]	S.Bvr	Elizabeth Gorral	none	1 horse, 1 cow	Entry struck through. G3’s herd rises 2→3 horses, 2→3 cows.
1814[12]	S.Bvr	Elizabeth Gurrel	none	1 horse	Listed and struck again — almost certainly a stale carry-over.

 

Elizabeth appeared after James the elder disappeared, suggesting that she was the widow of James, the elder. She was enumerated in 1810 as over 45, and could have been the female over 45 in the 1800 census household of James “Gurl.” Her entry in 1811 is crossed out and James, the landowner (listed next) gained a horse and cow suggesting his increase came from her estate.

James, the land owner

Year	Twp.	Name as written	Land	Livestock	Reading
1800[13]	S.Bvr	James Gurl Junr (census)	—	—	1 male & 1 female 26–44; 4 males & 2 females under 10. Born 1756–1774. Six children already.
1804[14]	S.Bvr	James Gorrel Jun	200 ac ($100)	—	Paired entry "or James Dunkin" — see Section 5.
1804[15]	S.Bvr	James Gorrel Jun	200+200 ac	2 horses, 2 cows	Two tracts at different valuations ($100 / $50).
1805[16]	S.Bvr	James Gorrell Junr	200 ac	1 horse, 2 cows
1806[17]	S.Bvr	James Gorrel Junr	—	—
1807[18]	S.Bvr	James Gorrell	300 ac	1 horse, 2 cows	"Junr" dropped the year James the elder died — no longer two Jameses to distinguish.
1808[19]	S.Bvr	James Gorrel	300 ac	2 horses, 2 cows
1809[20]	S.Bvr	James Gorrel	300 ac	2 horses, 2 cows
1810[21]	S.Bvr	James Gorrell (census)	—	—	15 in household. Head 26–44. Older female in household, who could be mother, mother-in-law, older aunt, servant, etc.
1810[22]	S.Bvr	James Gorrell	300 ac	2 horses, 2 cows
1811[23]	S.Bvr	James Gorral	300 ac	3 horses, 3 cows	Gains one horse & one cow as Elizabeth is struck.
1812[24]	S.Bvr	James Gorrel	300 ac	3 horses, 3 cows
1813[25]	S.Bvr	James Gurl	300 ac	2 horses, 3 cows

1816[28]	S.Bvr	James Gorrel	150 ac	2 horses, 3 cows	Sole James. Acreage drop unexplained — likely assessment error.
1817[29]	S.Bvr	James Gorrel	300 ac	2 horses, 2 cows	Back to 300 — confirms 1816 was an error, not a sale.
1817[30]	Ohio	James Gorrel	300 ac	2 horses, 2 cows

1827[40]	Ohio	James Gorrel (hrs)	150 ac	2 horses, 1 cow	Died between the 1826 and 1827 assessments.
1827[41]	So. Beaver	James Gurrell heirs	150 ac		Died between the 1826 and 1827 assessments.

While James the elder was alive, this landowning James was listed as Junior. This could mean he was the son of James Senior (the elder) or was just another man with the same name who was younger. In 1800, he had his own household and was born between 1756–1774. If he was born on the later end, he could easily have been the son of the elder James. In the 1810 census enumeration, he was still listed in the 26-45 age bracket, making his birth closer to 1774.

This James owned 200 acres until about when the elder James died and then was listed as having 300 acres, all in South Beaver Township, except the year 1804 where he was taxed for 200 acres twice, one worth $100 and one worth $50.

He was taxed on the 300 acres until 1814, when he was listed as Senior with 250 acres, while a younger James was Junior with 50 acres. Over the next five years, his acreage was listed as 150 acres in 1816, and then 300 acres through 1820. The senior was dropped, so perhaps the James junior moved out of the area. He was also taxed in both South Beaver and Ohio Townships with 300 acres, 2 horses, and 2 cows, suggesting his property may have straddled both townships.

He was enumerated in Ohio Township in 1820 with 15 people in the household, two of whom were foreigners. The story of the family coming from Ireland could fit this scenario that James and possibly his wife were the foreigners, but household or farm hands could also be the foreign members. If James and his wife are over 45, she might be too old to have the children under 10 and these children could be the children of another set of adults in the 26-44 age bracket.

James is no longer taxed after 1826 and two James Gorrell heirs appear in the Ohio and South Beaver townships, each having 150 acres, totally 300 acres. These heir lists continue through 1831. This suggests that James died before 1827.

Sarah Gorrell
Sarah Gorrell appeared in records 1829-1835 as either Sarah or as widow Gorrell, suggesting she either died or moved. In 1835, she had no land.

Year	Twp.	Name as written	Land	Livestock	Reading
1829[42]	S. Bvr	Sarah Gurrell	none	2 horses, 1 cow	First appearance, two years after James’ estate opened.
1830[43]	Ohio	Sarah Gorrel (census)	—	—	1 female 50–60 (b. 1770–1780); 1 male 15–19, 1 male 20–29, 1 female 15–19, 1 female 20–29.
1832[44]	Ohio	Widow Gorrel	50 ac	none	First landed year — exactly one third of the 150-acre Ohio estate.
1833[45]	Ohio	Widow Gurrel	50 ac	1 horse, 2 cows
1834[46]	Ohio	Widow Gorrel	20 ac	1 horse, 1 cow	Holding reduced by 30 acres.
1835[47]	Ohio	Widow Gurrel	none	1 horse, 1 cow	Land gone. Last appearance.

In 1829, she had the livestock while the Gorrell heirs were listed with land. Her household in 1830 included herself in the 50-59 bracket, two young men and two young women. By 1832, she has 50 acres, which may be her widow’s third (of 150 acres) in Ohio township. She is possibly the widow of James Gorrell. Other sources, particularly the children of James and Sarah, name their parents as James Gorrell and Sarah Milholland.[48]

Gorrell Heirs Entries
There are two sets of entries, one for South Beaver and one for Ohio, with different acreages over the years from 1827 to 1832.

South Beaver

Year	Twp.	Name as written	Land	Livestock	Reading
1827[49]	S.Bvr	James Gurrell Heirs	100 ac	none	Estate opens. Joseph Gurrell taxed same year, 2 cows.
1828[50]	S.Bvr	James Gurrell heirs	100 ac	none	Ammus Gorrell taxed same year, 1 horse.
1829[51]	S.Bvr	James Gurrell heirs	250 ac	none	Rises by 150 acres. Sarah and Joseph also taxed on livestock.
1830[52]	S.Bvr	James Garrel Heirs	150 ac	none
1831[53]	S.Bvr	James Gorrel Heirs	150 ac	none	Final year of the estate.
1832[54]	S.Bvr	— estate gone —	—	—	Jesse appears with 80 ac; John appears with 50 ac. 80+50 = 130.

Ohio

Year	Twp.	Name as written	Land	Livestock	Reading
1827[55]	Ohio	James Gorrel (hrs)	150 ac	2 horses, 1 cow	Estate opens the same year as E1.
1828[56]	Ohio	James Gorril heirs	150 ac	2 horses, 1 cow
1829[57]	Ohio	James Gerrell heirs	50 ac	none	Drops to 50 as Samuel and Joseph each appear with 100.
1830[58]	Ohio	James Gorrel heirs	150 ac	none	Back to 150 — the 1829 figure was probably premature.
1831[59]	Ohio	James Gorrell heirs	50 ac	1 horse, 1 cow	Final year. James also taxed on 50 ac the same year.
1832[60]	Ohio	— estate gone —	—	—	Widow Gorrel appears with 50 ac — one third of 150.

This is the toughest to analyze. The values of the real estate fluctuated. There doesn’t seem to be a clear amount of land being given to a younger Gorrell. There are no deeds recorded for land transactions. There was no probate recorded for any of the deaths from James the elder, this James, or their wives. It is also confusing that there is land in both South Beaver and Ohio townships, when the widow lived in Ohio township. However, there was a James Gorrell in South Beaver who owned a saw mill, who stops appearing the same time as the James Gorrell heirs show up. It is likely that both heirs are to the same man.

James Gorrell, saw mill owner.

Year	Twp.	Name as written	Land	Livestock	Reading
1820[61]	S.Bvr	James Gorrel	none	saw mill	Distinct entry from James Gurrel, 300 ac, same year, same list.
1821[62]	S.Bvr	James Gorrel	none	saw mill	Now the only James in South Beaver.
1822[63]	S.Bvr	James Gorrel	none	1 saw mill
1823[64]	S.Bvr	James Gorrel	100 ac	saw mill	Acquires 100 acres.
1824[65]	S.Bvr	James Gorrell	100 ac	sawmill
1825[66]	S.Bvr	James Gorrel	100 ac	saw mill	James Gorrel Junr also taxed separately, 1 cow, but no land.
1826[67]	S.Bvr	James Garrel	100 ac	saw mill	Last appearance — the year before James Gorrell heirs opens at 100 acres.

This continues to support one man who owned land on both sides of the Ohio and South Beaver township boundary. However, none of the Gorrells who lived in South Beaver by the time the estate was settled were taxed on a saw mill. Because the land John and Jessie had in South Beaver totaled 130 acres, perhaps they sold 20 acres to someone who ran the saw mill. I would need to revisit the tax records for South Beaver. I only have the pages that cover the Gorrells. The AI suggested researching the mill, which I can do in the Beaver County history, though no mill of the Gorrell name came up in a name search.

Beaver County History
I found two volumes of a history of Beaver County written by Rev. Joseph H. Bausman in 1904. Volume II had information about the formation of the townships and then a few paragraphs about some history of them. Not much was written about South Beaver. After describing its boundaries he wrote, “The surface of the township is hilly, and the soil excellent. Massive strata of sandstone, with limestone and a good quality of coal are found in several sections of the township.”[68]

In 1805, a group of residents petitioned to separate South Beaver into two townships: South Beaver and Ohio. One of the boundary lines would be at 

“beginning on the line of the State, at a deep gully between James Gorrel’s and Jehu Coulson’s thence a Direct course to Alexander Reed’s including said Reed in the division next the Ohio River from thence to George Conkle’s striking Bready’s run at the East side of sad Conkle’s plantation included in the above division, thence down the north side of the bottom of said run to Big Beaver Creek, the Division next the Ohio River to be called Ohio township and the other to retain South Beaver.”[69] 

The most important part of the description was seeing James Gorrell’s land was at the border to Ohio and that the townships would run along his property. I also have a neighbor to research. It doesn’t explain why he was taxed in both.

The Ohio Township covered several pages, including images of Native American pictographs found on the Ohio River near Smith’s Ferry. Since the Ohio River was not near the Gorrell’s land, these won’t be included in any story. The township is bounded in the north by South Beaver, the east by Brighton and Industry townships, in the south by the Ohio River, and the west by Columbiana County, Ohio. "The surface of the township is broken, the soil is good and is underlaid with oil, coal, fire-clay, limestone, and sandstone. Its streams are small; Dry Run, Island Run, Bealer’s Run, and others rising within its limits near the center, and passing with a very rapid fall into the Ohio River; and Little Beaver Creek, which, after having left the county and the State, enters both again and empties into the Ohio just at the southwestern edge of this township.”

I have a note from another researcher that James (1770-1826; landowner) was buried at New Salem Presbyterian Church, which is located close to the Ohio state border. The church’s first minister appointment was in 1796. James Gorrell was listed as one of the first ruling elders of the church.[70] It is not known whether this is the elder James or the land-owning James. I have visited this church and the graveyard but they have no record of the burials and many of the stones are either missing or sunk deep in the ground.

James Gorrell is likely buried somewhere in this blank field.
