		Varnum, James Mitchell (17 Dec. 1748-9 Jan. 1789), lawyer, revolutionary war general, and judge, was born in Dracut, Massachusetts, the son of Samuel Varnum and Hannah Mitchell, affluent farmers who had James prepared for Harvard College.
		Varnum's popularity stemmed from several personal traits: his superior wit and intelligence, his outstanding oratorical skills, his admired competence in a wide range of scholarly subjects, and even his celebrated athletic abilities.
		Varnum returned to full-time legal practice in East Greenwich, and the state of Rhode Island honored him with the rank of major general in the state militia.

		Varnum, a brigadier general in the Continental Army, commanded the Rhode Island brigade, which for its part defended, by the "Satr Redoubt," the bank of the Schyllkill River.
		He stood by his principles in the practice of law, and was at the point of serving as judge of the U.S. court in the Northwest Territory (to which he travelled on horseback) when he died there, in Marietta, Ohio, apparently of consumption, in 1789.
		Varnum's mental toughness was no doubt a part of his Pilgrim inheritance.

		Mary Pease was the daughter of Major Augistine Pease of Sheffield, CT. James Mitchell Varnum was born in Dracut, MA and died in Washington, DC.
		The genealogy givesno place of birth for Mary Butler, but her father was in Washington in 1808 where he held a position under the Postmaster General.
