INTRODUCTION. 


Columbia  county,  in  the  State  of  New  York,  lies  on  the  east  bank  of  the 
Hudson  river,  between  Dutchess  county  on  the  south  and  Rensselaer  county 
on  the  north,  and  extends  to  the  boundary  line  of  the  State  of  Massachusetts. 
It  is  about  thirty-six  miles  in  length  and  about  twenty  miles  in  breadth,  with 
an  area  of  688  square  miles,  and  a  population  of  47,928.  Its  capital  city  is 
Hudson,  and  its  minor  divisions  or  townships  are  Ancram,  Austerlitz,  Canaan, 
Chatham,  Claverack,*  Clermont,  Copake,  Gallatin,  Germantown,  Ghent,  Green- 
port,  Hillsdale,  Kinderhook,f  Livingston,  New  Lebanon,  Stockport,  Stuyve- 
santf  and  Taghkanick.§ 

The  earliest  mention  of  this  tract  of  country  is  found  in  a  monograph  by 
Henry  Hudson,  the  discoverer,  when  on  the  evening  of  September  17,  1609, 
he  anchored  opposite  the  spot  now  occupied  by  the  county  seat  which  bears 
his  name.  In  ancient  days  it  was  sparsely  inhabited  by  Indian  tribes  resid- 
ing on  the  bank  of  the  Hudson  and  in  the  Taghkanick  hills. 

The  first  European  settlers  of  the  county  seem  to  arrange  themselves  in 
r  groups  :  the  Dutch  settlers  from  Albany,  the  tenants  of  the  Livingston 
;  mor,  the  settlement  of  German  palatinates,  and  the  gradual  immigration 
New  England  families. 

Under  the  Dutch   government,  and   the  directors  of   its  West  India  Com- 

ny,  a  large  number  of  Holland  families  settled  in  what  are  now  known 
the  townships  of   Kinderhook,  Ghent,  Stuyvesant,  Stockport  and   Claver- 

k,  the  latter  being   the  seat  of   the  Van   Rensselaers,   as   patroons  of   the 

wer  manor,  which   comprised   not   less   than    170,000   acres  of   land.      The

vi  INTRODUCTION. 

earliest  records  are  those  of  the  Dutch  Reformed  Church,  which  establish 
the  fact  that  very  many  well-known  county  names  were  among  its  earliest 
settlers,  and  are  still  represented  by  numerous  descendants.  The  Van  Rensse- 
laers,  for  example,  in  two  direct  lines  from  the  founder  of  that  historic 
family  in  America. 

The  Livingston  Manor  originally  contained  upwards  of  160,000  acres,  and 
included  a  large  portion  of  the  present  townships  of  Livingston,  Clermont, 
Copake,  Ancram,  Gallatin,  Germantown  and  Taghkanick,  being  granted  by  a 
patent  issued  by  Governor  Dongan  to  Robert  Livingston  in  1685,  and  con- 
firmed by  royal  charter  in  17 15.  Descendants  of  this  distinguished  family 
still  reside  within  the  limits  of  the  county,  although  the  old  manor  house 
at  Clermont,  and  nearly  all  the  estate,  have  passed  from  possession  of  the 
descendants  of  the  first  Lord  of  the  Manor.  Robert  Livingston,  although  a 
Scotchman  by  birth,  does  not  seem  to  have  introduced  to  America  many  of 
his  own  countrymen.  A  refugee  in  Holland,  he  appears  to  have  come  to 
this  country  with  strong  Dutch  proclivities,  and  his  intimate  connections 
with  the  Van  Rensselaers  gave  a  distinctively  Dutch  character  to  the  Liv- 
ingston colony. 

In  the  year  17 10,  Queen  Anne,  through  Governor  Robert  Hunter,  pur- 
chased from  Robert  Livingston  6,000  acres  of  land  on  the  Livingston  Manor 
for  the  settlement  of  German  palatinates  who  had  served  in  the  British  army, 
and  formed  the  original  settlement  of  what  is  now  known  as  Germantown. 
Some  of  the  first  settlers  removed  to  the  Mohawk  and  Schoharie  valleys, 
but  the  descendants  of  not  a  few  are  still  residing  in  the  township. 

The  township  of  Canaan,  which  was  afterward  divided  into  New  Lebanon 
and  parts  of  Chatham  and  Austerlitz,  was  first  occupied  by  emigrants  from 
New  England,  Samuel  A.  Curtis  being  the  first  white  child  born  in  the 
place;  but  the  great  influx  of  American  settlers  took  place  after  the  declara- 
tion of  Independence  in  1776;  and  the  unsettled  condition  of  affairs  pre- 
vious to  that  epoch  is  evident  from  the  fact  that  a  very  large  number  of 
the  lineages  in  this  volume  can  only  be  traced  to  the  revolutionary  period, 
family  records  having  been  lost  when  the  members  thereof  were  engaged  in 
a  great  national  struggle,  and  the  whole  country  was  in  a  state  of  turmoil 
and  transition. 

The  object  of  the  present  undertaking  is  to  preserve  in  the  deluge  of 
time  the  pedigrees  and  salient  historic  incidents  in  a  family,  and  to  present 
them  in  the   popular  form  of  a  direct"  pedigree.      For  many  years  there  has 


INTRODUCTION.  vii 

been  a  growing  interest  in  genealogical  research,  as  the  very  large  collec- 
tions of  such  works  in  our  leading  libraries  testify;  but  they  are  very  often 
diffuse  in  their  character,  and  not  of  great  importance  to  the  general  public, 
whereas  the  pedigrees  of  those  whose  living  personality  is  part  of  our  social 
and  national  life  are  of  more  interest. 

The  preservation  of  pedigrees  is  not  the  mere  pastime  of  the  idle  and 
curious,  it  is  the  honorable  employment  of  the  student  and  historian,  for  it 
has  always  formed  the  basis  of  true  history.  In  the  ancient  records  of 
Assyria,  Egypt  and  Arabia,  the  pedigree  of  an  individual  is  usually  the 
thread  upon  which  is  strung  the  stirring  events  of  centuries,  and  so  import- 
ant a  place  did  the  preservation  of  a  pedigree  occupy  among  the  Israelites 
that  it  was  established  as  a  positive  obligation  upon  every  Levite  in  the 
Temple.  Josephus  regarded  genealogical  study  as  of  the  utmost  importance, 
and  in  giving  an  account  of  his  personal  history,  boasts  "  I  have  traced  my 
pedigree  as  I  found  it  recorded  on  the  public  tablets."  Nor  is  the  genea- 
logical form  of  history  peculiar  to  semetic  races.  The  earliest  Greek  records 
were  also  those  of  pedigrees.  The  histories  of  Acusilaus  of  Argos,  and  of 
Hectseus  of  Miletus  were  entitled  genealogies  (ysreaXoyiai)^  and  the  frag- 
mentary histories  of  Xanthus,  Charon  of  Lampsacus  and  Hellanicus  are 
strongly  marked  with  the  genealogical  element,  whilst  in  the  Greek  Testa- 
ment the  whole  structure  of  Christianity  is  based  upon  the  established  pedi- 
gree of  its  founder. 

It  is  true  that  in  the  volume  before  us  there  are  many  lineages  which  contain 
nothing  save  the  simple  records  of  uneventful  generations,  but  they  preserve 
facts  which  would  otherwise  be  lost  in  the  history  of  the  American  nation. 
Examples  illustrative  of  this  are  seen  in  a  comparison  of  two  lineages  of  historic 
value  as  regards  Columbia  county  history  —  that  of  Martin  Van  Buren,  eighth 
president  of  the  United  States,  who  was  born  at  Kinderhook  in  1782,  and  that 
of  Samuel  J.  Tilden,  governor  of  New  York  State  and  candidate  for  the  presi- 
dency in  the  great  political  struggle  of  1876,  and  who  was  bom  in  New  Leba- 
non. The  records  of  the  Van  Buren  family  have  not  been  preserved,  and  we 
have,  therefore,  no  information  regarding  the  pedigree  of  Martin  Van  Buren 
beyond  that  of  his  father,  although  he  was  undoubtedly  descended  from  an  old 
Dutch  ancestry  —  whereas  in  the  case  of  Samuel  J.  Tilden  we  are  able  to  trace 
the  lineage  of  one  who  is  an  important  figure  in  American  history  to  the  original 
English  stock.  Some  affect  to  be  indifferent  to  such  matters,  on  the  principle 
that  we  judge  of  a  man  as  we  find  him,  and  not  on  the  merits  of  his  ancestors, 


viii  INTRODUCTION. 

but  such  feelings  are  not  in  harmony  with  those  of  the  student  of  history  and 
of  hereditary  genius. 

The  publication  of  such  details  as  are  given  in  the  present  volume  have  also 
another  aspect  of  importance,  inasmuch  as  they  may  enable  families  to  trace 
their  ancestry  to  a  remote  period.  Such  works  as  Savage's  Genealogical  Diction- 
ary of  New  Efigland*  Austin's  Dictionary  of  Rhode  Island^]  Munsell's  First 
Settlers  of  Albany^  and  the  long  list  of  works  given  in  Durrie's  Alphabetical 
Index  to  American  Genealogies  and  PedigreesX  trace  as  far  as  possible  the  three 
first  generations  of  early  American  immigrants,  and  all  that  is  needed  is  a 
careful  investigation  regarding  the  two  generations  which  usually  connect  the 
present  with  the  past  as  recorded  in  those  genealogical  publications. 

Such  a  work  as  the  present  must  also  be  of  some  interest  and  importance  to 
many  persons  in  Europe,  as  enabling  them  to  locate  branches  of  their  families 
who  have  obtained  a  "local  habitation  and  a  name  "  in  the  new  world.

who  was  the  son  of  John  Pruyn  of  Holland, 
is  found  settled  in  Albany  with  his  wife, 
Aeltje  or  Alida,  as  early  as  1665.  Being  a 
Roman  Catholic,  he  refused   to  take    the 


oath  of  allegiance  to  King  William,  the 
Protestant  king  of  England,  but  expressed 
himself  willing  to  swear  fidelity.  His  son 
John,  however,  subscribed  to  the  oath. 
His  widow,  Aeltje,  joined  the  Dutch  Re- 
formed Church  in  1683.  He  had  sons 
Johannes,  Samuel,  Frans  and  Arent.  Sam- 
uel was  the  founder  of  the  Albany  branch

Kinderhook,  where  his  descendants  have

"The  hasty  Coffin  — fractious  loud 
The  silent  Gardiner  —  plotting, 
The  Mitchells  good,  the  Barkers — proud. 

The  Macys  eat  the  pudding, 
The  Rays  and  Russells  coopers  are 

The  knowing  Folgers  lazy  — 
A  learned  Coleman  very  rare 
And  scarce  an  honest  Hussey."

American  Genealogical  Index,  being  an  al- 
phabetical index  to  American  Genealogies 
and  Pedigrees  contained  in  State,  County 
and  Town  Histories,  Printed  Genealogies 
and  kindred  works,  by  Daniel  S.  Durrie, 
Librarian  State  Historical  Society  of  Wis- 
consin. Third  edition,  revised  and  enlarged 
(last  edition),  Albany,  1886,  Svo,  about  245 
pages,  cloth,  $3. 
This  work  has  been  prepared  with  a  view  to 
facilitate  the  study  of  family  history,  by  fur- 
nishing an  index  to  the  genealogies  contained 
in  the  large  number  of  county  and  town  his- 
tories, collections  of  public  and  privately 
printed  genealogies,  centennial  anniversary 
celebrations,  biographies  and  other  works  con- 
taining the  desired  information.  But  few  per- 
sons have  an  adequate  knowledge  of  the  amount 
of  genealogical  material  to  be  found  in  such 
volumes,  from  the  fact,  that  any  thing  like  a 
full  collection  of  works  in  those  departments 
can  only  be  found  in  the  larger  cities,  and  in 
the  hands  of  a  few  private  parties ;  and  without 
consulting  them,  it  is  often  an  impossibility  to 
prepare  a  family  history,  or  of  learning  any 
thing  very  definite  of  any  particular  family. 
With  the  assistance  furnished  by  this  volume, 
no  difficulty  will  be  experienced  in  collecting 
needed  information,  by  any  one  interested  in 
such  investigations.  It  also  affords  instruction 
to  the  general  reader  who  may  not  know  whether 
the  history  of  his  native  county,  town  or  village 
has  ever  been  written  and  published;  but  its 
most  desirable  feature  is  the  knowledge  to  be 
gained  by  all  persons,  whether  residing  in  the 
country  or  elsewhere,  who,  by  examining  its 
pages,  can  inform  themselves  whether  the  gen- 
ealogy or  pedigree  of  any  family,  or  any  por- 
tion thereof,  in  which  they  may  feel  an  interest, 
has  been  printed  in  any  volume,  and  if  so,  that 
they  may  have  the  benefit  of  such  information. 
More  than  fifteen  thousand  names  are  here 
alphabetically  arranged.  Several  hundred  vol- 
umes of  historical  and  biographical  publica 
tions  have  been  minutely  examined  in  detail, 
and  not  depending  on  the  indexes,  appended  to 
such  volumes,  which  are  more  or  less  defective 
and  incomplete.  A  number  of  works  not  acces- 
sible to  the  compiler  have  been  examined  by 
parties  interested  in  perfecting  the  work.  The 
more  important  names  in  Dr.  Savage's  Genea- 
logical Dictionary  have  been  noticed  as  well  as 
the  genealogies  found  in  the  volumes  of  the 
New  England  Historical  and  Genealogical  Kea- 
inter.  This  is  the  only  work  of  the  kind  pub- 
lished in  this  country.  It  has  been  the  aim  of 
the  compiler  to  make  it  as  thorough  and  com- 
plete as  possible.  The  body  of  the  work  is  pre- 
ceded by  a  list  of  principal  titles  of  works  re- 
ferred to  in  the  index.
