The "Littleton Town Book to Enter Births and Deaths" proclaimed:
"Tilley Bathrick Son of Samuel & Susannah Bathrick Born august ye 28 1750"
Tilley (Tillabee) Bathrick was a son of Samuel Bathrick (of Concord, Mass.) & Susannah Ewers (or "Yours", of Bedford), who were married in Bedford in 1740.
Samuel & Susannah had a large family, all born in Concord (except Littleton-born Tilley) from 1741 thru 1764:
Hitty, Ruben, Lucy, Stephen, Debbe, Tilley, Susey, Sarah, Betty, Peter, Lois, & Patta Bathrick.
Tilley, growing up in Concord, was well aware of the increased tensions between Britain and the Colonies.
TILLABE BATHRICK (or Barthrick, as it appears in the records) served as Private on the Lexington Alarm. He was in Captain Thomas Grover's company, Colonel Williams'
regiment, which marched from Montague, Massachusetts, April 19, 1775, and served eighteen days.
[Massachusetts State Records]
Tilley married "The Widow" Abigaile Kettle 14 Mar 1776 at Montague, in Franklin County, Mass.
Shortly thereafter the Bathricks found themselves in the town of Abigaile's birth, Leverett, where they had their children and where in 1780 Tilley was the Constable.
Their surviving children were:
1. Peter (b.1777; m. Elenor Phillips)
2. Stephen (b.1778; m. Catherine Batchelor)
3. Esther (b.~1780; Mrs. Samuel Bishop)
4. Susanna (b.1782; Mrs. Consider Bachelor)
He was in Conway, Mass. 1798-1800, but by January 1820 an Auburn, New York newspaper, the "Cayuga Republican" said:
"To Let-The subscriber wishes to rent out his Tavern Stand and Grocery in Owasco, near the Meeting House. The above contains a convenient cellar, has good horse shed and well of water, and everything necessary for the purpose.
Tilly Bathrick, Owasco, Dec. 28, 1819."
Just before his death, we read in the "Cayuga Republican" of 19 Jan 1831, an article informing "Friends & the general Public" that Tilly Bathrick was opening his home as a tavern once more...
"Tilley Bathrick would inform his Friends & the general Public that he is able to open his house as a tavern, 6 miles from Auburn on road leading to Owasco, Locke, Groton, Homer and strikes the Cherry Valley Turnpike. His bar will be well supplied with the choicest liquors and his table will afford most of the luxuries found at any of our public houses.
Owasco, Jan. 18, 1831."
Two months after, at the age of 80, he was gone...
