Notes |
- Nathaniel Danielson was the son of John Danielson and Margaret Mighill, and the husband of (1) Mary Morgan and (2) Rose Morgan. He served as a Major in Col. David Brewer's MA Regiment during the American Revolution. In 1777 Nathaniel was tried in the Hampshire Co (MA) Court for the murder of Jabez Nichols AKA Jabez Smith. The resolution of the case is not known. Nathaniel later owned a hotel and at age 79 he was murdered while trying to remove an unruly customer.
Nathaniel's male line died out with the early death of his only grandson Eli. Nathaniel's nephews and cousins in the 1830's changed the family name from "Danielson" to "Donaldson," believing that "Donaldson" was the original family surname back in 1600's Scotland.
Some researchers have speculated that Nathaniel was the grandson of wealthy James Danielson of Killingly, CT. However, this is disproved by James' 1728 will, which shows only two sons, Samuel and James, Jr.
