PREFACE.
Those who receive this pamphlet are earnestly re- quested to examine its statements carefully, and to send me notice of all errors and omissions that may be dis- covered therein. In so doing, particular attention should be bestowed upon the dates. Probably a few errors will be detected in these, notwithstanding my efforts. to make them as correct as possible. It is hoped that sufficient material may be received in this way to justify a reissue of these pages in a fuller and more accurate form.
I desire to thank the few who have aided me in pre- paring this genealogy, and to say to the many who have not, that much of its incompleteness is due to their neg- lect and want of courtesy. Imperfect as the work is, it has cost me considerable time and labor — much more, indeed, than will appear possible to those who merely glance over its pages. No one regrets so much as myself the meager results of my efforts to do for other people what they will not do for themselves.
I have collected the material for two more volumes on the Phoenix family, which will probably be printed

at no very distant day. They will enumerate the de- scendants, so far as known to me, of Alexander Phcenix, who settled in this city about 1640, and of John Phcenix, an early settler in New Jersey. My original intention of publishing an account of all branches of the family in a single volume, has been abandoned.

GENEALOGY.
The materials for a biography of John Phoenix, ancestor of those whose names are recorded on the fol- lowing pages, are exceedingly scanty. Nothing is known concerning his parentage, and even his nationality is a matter of conjecture. There are good grounds, however, for believing that he was of Scotch descent, and that he emigrated from his native land in consequence of the persecution to which the Kirk, of Scotland was subjected in the reign of Charles II. The records of the Congre- gational Church at Kittery bear witness to his worthy and pious conduct in his new home ; and we may add that in this respect his character has been very generally inherited by his descendants.
The date of his birth has not been ascertained ; in all probability it was not later than 1646, the year in which his wife was born. The first mention of his name, known to me, occurs in a deed dated 1664, in which John Withers, of Kittery, conveys " unto John ffennicke " a tract of land in Spruce Cricke Contayneing twelve " acres joyneing to a necke of Land called pine poynt

" For & in consideration of Tenn pound in
"hand payd." On the 21st of June, 1669, "ye Select " men for Kittery with yc Consent and approbation of "Thomas Withers" granted "unto John Amerideth " and John ffenix " twenty-four acres of land near Eagle Point; and on the 22d of January i6|~§- there is " measured and layd out unto John ffeanix his town " grant of twenty acres of land bearing Date Aug" 1 8, " 1679, and his addition to his house lott Containing " six acres."

The name thus variously spelled was, in reality, Fenwick. He himself generally wrote it as it is properly pronounced, Fennick. It has since passed through the successive forms of Fennicks, Fennix, Fenix, and Phenix. The last, and final change — to judge from the practice of other fam- ilies of the same name — will probably be to convert the e into the diphthong ce* Having attained this ancient and classical form, it is to be hoped that the name will cease from its wanderings and assume a permanent rest- ing-place.
* In anticipation of this final change, and with a view to hasten it, I have spelled the name in these pages, Phoenix — though, to the best of my knowledge, no one of the present branch of the family has as yet adopted this form of the name
PHCENIX FAMILY.
In several deeds now lying before me, he is styled " mariner." He could hardly have been a common sailor, however, as he appears to have been possessed of very considerable wealth, and of more than the average education of his day. He could, at least, write his name — as witness some bold and clerkly signatures in my possession — and this was an accomplishment by no means common among seafaring men two centuries ago. It may, therefore, be reasonably conjectured that he was the owner of a vessel engaged in " lumbering," or in the fisheries — occupations which have afforded lucrative employment to the inhabitants of Kittery from its settlement, in 1623, to the present day.
He married Deborah , but in what year is
unknown. They were man and wife, however, as early as 1 67 1, as appears from a deed signed by them con- jointly on the 13th of March in that year. She must have been born in 1646, as she speaks of herself, in a deposition dated Nov. 17th, 17 16, as being " of about Seventy year of age." In another deposition, bearing the date of March 29th, 1732, she calls herself eighty- six, and this is the last mention I have found of her. No doubt she died soon afterward. There appears to be no record of her husband's decease. We learn from a deed executed on the 26th of May, 1721, that he was living on that day ; but his name does not again appear on the records, so far, at least, as they have come under

my observation. It may be reasonably inferred that his death occurred soon after this date, and that he did not long survive his seventy-fifth year.
Genealogists will not be surprised to hear that tradi- tion makes him, as it does nearly every early settler in New England, one of three brothers, who came to this country together and settled in different parts of it — one of them going to Maryland, and another still farther South. By what Christian names these brothers were distinguished, where they settled, whom they married, what children they had, I have not been able to ascer- tain, and my faith in their existence is very faint. There is no evidence in my possession to connect the settler of Kittery with Alexander Fenwick, or Phcenix, who settled in New Amsterdam, now New York, about 1640, and who is believed by some of his descendants (though probably on insufficient grounds) to have been a younger son of Sir John Fenwick, of Northumberland, England.
The Fenwicks of Northumberland were a fine old border family of Saxon origin, who resided at Fenwick Tower, in that county, from the reign of Henry I. to that of William III. (1067-1697), when their estates were forfeited by the rebellion of Sir John Fenwick, Bart. They were long celebrated for their warlike pro- pensities. Those who are familiar with border literature will remember the lines,

*' We saw, come marching ower the knows,
Fyve hundred Fennicks in a flock, —
With jack and speir, and bowis all bent,
And warlike weaponis at their will."
Ballad of the Raid of the Redsivire.
This clannish family bore a leading part in almost every combat upon the border, and their gathering-cry, "A Fenwyke ! a Fenwyke!! a Fenwyke !!!", was never heard without a vast troop of retainers flocking round their standard. The house of Percy found its most constant adherents in the Fenwicks, and the silver crescent of the former never appeared in border warfare without the gorged Phcenix in the burning flame (the Fen- wick crest) following in the rear. They were called " The Fierce Fenwicks," from their family characteristic: thus, at the Raid of the Redswire,
" Proud Wallinton was wounded sair, Albeit he be a Fennick fierce."
The arms of the family, used as early as 1274, were "per fesse gu. and arg. six martlets counterchanged." Their crest was " a phcenix* in flames ppr. gorged with
* This is called in heraldry a canting crest. It serves to show that Fen-wick was pronounced, at a very early day, as if written Phoenix. In the same way, Fenwicke Creek, Salem county, New Jersey (named after John Fenwicke, an early settler in that State), has been, I am informed, corrupted into Phcenix Creek, and is now known to those who live in its neighborhood by the latter name only. A correspondent in Liverpool, England, writes to me : " I have an old friend, named Fenwick, whom we, at the Bar of the Northern Circuit, always called Phcenix." Lower adopts this ex- planation of the name in his Patronymica Britannica.

a mural crown." They had three mottoes. One, quoted above, was their war-cry; the second, perit ut vivat, was in allusion to the crest ; the third, a tous jours loyal, was conferred by Henry V., in acknowledgment of the ser- vices rendered him by Sir John de Fenwicke during his French wars.
Scanty remains of Fenwick Tower, the family strong- hold, are still to be seen one mile southwest of Stam- fordham, Northumberland, on the edge of a small, gloomy fen, which has given the family its name. They are built into the walls of a modern farm-house. In destroying part of the Tower in 1775, 226 gold nobles of Edward III. and Richard II , and one of David II., were found buried in a stone chest, having probably been concealed during an inroad of David of Scotland, in 1361, when he penetrated to Hexham, carrying off thence the two sons of the then Sir John Fenwick, of Fenwick Tower.
Whether the settler of Kittery was descended from either of these sons thus carried into Scotland, or whether his ancestors were simply retainers of this pow- erful family, and adopted, as was common, the name of those they served, it is now too late to determine. I have no hopes of ever solving this problem; and, indeed, admonished by the difficulties I have experienced in constructing even the scanty record that follows, I have no desire to attempt it.

Married, secondly,
* The first of these dates was copied from the town records of Kittery, the second from the register of baptisms in the Congregational Church. Of course, one of them is incorrect; and as I find that the 5th of August, 171 6, O. S., was Sunday (on which day the baptism was undoubtedly performed), I am inclined to believe that the error is in the town record.

* Abigail Furniss and William Furnex are evidently sister and brother, and the chil- dren of Abigail Furniss, who was the daughter of David Phippen. Probably the earlier orthography of the name is correct, though it must be owned that Furnex has consid- erable resemblance in sound to Phenix, and may be the same name. Savage mentions a Benjamin Fernis as living at Salem in 1640, and adds, with great improbability, that the name is possibly a corruption of Ferris. Nathaniel Fearnux, of Lexington, who was killed in the action of April 19th, 1775, with the British troops (see Mass. Hist. Soc. Coll., 2nd Series, vm., 45), was perhaps a member of the same family, though this name is a still nearer approach to Phcenix.
