TO MY SONS,
WILLIAM HUMPHREY ASPINWALL
AND
CLARENCE AIKIN ASPINWALL,
THIS BOOK IS LOVINGLY DEDICATED.
"Ay, thus it is, one generation comes,
Another goes, and mingles with the dust;
And then we come and go, and come and go,
Each for a little moment filling up
Some little place ; and then we disappear
In quick succession; and it shall be so
Till time in one vast perpetuity
Is swallowed up."
PREFACE,
In presenting this work to the descendants of Peter Aspin-
wall, I have the same story to tell, as usually related by com-
pilers of family genealogies.
About eleven years ago, I made up my mind that I would
like to know something about my ancestors, and, accordingly,
began to make some researches in that direction. At that time, I
had no intention to compile a genealogy of the Aspinwall family,
but, in the course of the researches mentioned, I came into pos-
session of so much data concerning the early members of this
family, that I finally resolved to attempt the collection of a record
of all of Peter Aspinwall's descendants. This book is the result.
With but three or four exceptions, all of his descendants bearing
the name have been traced, down to the present generation.
If it shall happen that it gives as much pleasure to those who
receive it, as it has to me during the years in which I have been
engaged in collecting thCvSe records, I shall feel repaid for the
labor expended during that time. To all those correspondents
who have aided and encouraged me during these years, I wish to
return my heartfelt thanks. I cannot name them all here.
I cannot refrain, however, from making acknowledgment to
Mr. Edward Augustus Bowen, of Brooklyn, N. Y., for his court-
esy in turning over to me, a number of years ago, the notes con-
cerning the early generations of the Aspinwall family which he
had collected, being himself a great-grandson of Dr. William
Aspinwall of Brookline. Also, to Mr. Thomas Aspinwall of Bos-
ton, Mass., for kindly furnishing me a copy of the sketch of his
ancestors, written in 1767, by his great-grandfather, the said Dr.
William Aspinwall.
6 PREFACE.
This book is purely a genealogy. No attempt has been made,
except in the earlier generations, to give any extended biograph-
ical account of the persons recorded. To have done so would
have enlarged the work to such an extent that it could not have
been published with the limited number of subscribers that
could be secured. Such imperfections as exist in the matter of
dates, names, etc., result through the neglect by correspondents
to supply the proper data. . They are not numerous. It is sug-
gested that additions and corrections be sent to me, that a record
may be kept of same, and, if advisable, a supplement issued in
the future.

EXPLANATION.
Beginning with Peter Aspinwall, his descendants in this
work are arranged in numerical order, and whenever a further
account is given of an)'- individual, his or her name is preceded
by a cross (+), and the additional record will be found in its
niimerical place farther along in the book. By this simple
method, any person may trace his or her ancestry back to the
original settler, b}^ merely turning back to each number as it
appears in its order. I know of no simpler plan.
The figures placed over the names indicate the generation of
the person ; thus, Algernon Aikin' Aspinwall, denotes that he is
of the seventh generation, Peter' being the first.
The usual abbreviations are used, " b.," born; " d.," died;
"bap.," baptized; "dau.," daughter; "m.," married; " ch. "
children, etc.
THE ASPINWALLS IN ENGLAND.
The Aspinwalls, orAspinalls, have been for several centuries
located in the County of Lancaster, England. The origin of the
family is unknown to the compiler of this work. The name,
Aspinwall, like many others, has undergone several changes, and,
as near as can be ascertained, has arrived at its present form,
through the various gradations, from Aspenhalgh, Aspinhaugh,
Aspinall, Aspinwall, the name originally signifying, an ''Aspen
Mead," or an " Aspen Vale."
It is not the province of this work to trace the family from
its earliest known history in England, but, as Toxteth Park, in
Lancaster County, was the home of our ancestor, a brief account
of the place will no doubt be of interest.
Toxteth Park, now a suburb of the city of Liverpool, had
been the property of the Crown from the time of King John, but,
in the year 1604, was disparked, and came through purchase into
the hands of one Richard Molyneux. Prior to this time, it is
spoken of as "waste land without inhabitants," but when it was
disparked, a number of persons settled on the land, and began
its cultivation. Among these was one Edward Aspinwall, no
doubt a member of the Aspinwall family in the immediate vicin-
ity. He appears to have been the earliest settler of the name at
Toxteth Park, and, from various circumstances, the compiler of
this work believes that he was the father of Peter Aspinwall, our
ancestor, although he has not had the opportunity to make any
researches to settle this point. It appears that the early inhabit-
ants of Toxteth Park were Puritan in their leanings, and, in 1611,
Richard Mather, afterwards minister at Dorchester, Mass., at the
age of 15 years, was called there to take charge of the school. He
lived, while at Toxteth, in the family of Edward Aspinwall, and
while there became converted, which, as he expresses it, " was
occasioned by observing a difference between his own walk, and
the most exact, watchful, faithful and prayerful conversation of
some in the family of the learned and pious Mr. Edward Aspin-
wall, of Toxteth, where he sojourned."
10 THE ASPINWALLS IN ENGLAND.
These Puritans, at Toxteth, built a chapel, the first one con-
nected with the "dissenters" in the neighborhood of Liverpool.
The building then erected is not now in existence, but upon its
site is the present church, which was built something more than
a hundred years ago, and preserves some of its features, while
the old burying ground remains undisturbed. In this church, in
the main aisle, on the stone covering of a vault, is a brass plate,
bearing the following inscription: "Edward Aspinwall of
Tocksteth Park, Esquire, Departed this life in March the
Twenty-ninth, A. D. 1656." Then follow verses 44, 53 and 54
of the 15th chapter of 1st Corinthians.
Many of these Puritans, in 1630 and the following years, emi-
grated to New England.
To those interested in coat-armor, it may be said that there
appear, in the various works on heraldry, several different coats-
of-arms. Burke's Heraldry gives to the Aspinalls of Lancaster
Co., two different ones, the first, "Or. a chev. between three
griffins' heads erased sa. Crest — a demi griffin erased sa. beaked,
legged, and collared or. ;" the second, "Ar an aspen leaf or."
Edmonson's Heraldry gives to Aspinwalls of Northumberland,
" Gu. — two bars dancettee or., within a bordure sa." The motto
is " Aegis fortissima virtus," virtue is the strongest shield.
WILLIAM ASPINWALL.
The earliest record of any person in America bearing the
name of xA-spinwall is tliat of William Aspinwall, who came with
Winthrop, to Massachusetts Bay, in 1630. In the " Historical
Sketch of the First Church in Boston," it is stated that " The
Arabella, the vessell in which they crossed the Atlantick,
anchored in Massachusetts Bay on the 17th June, 1630, after
exploring the Mystick River, they came ashore at Charlestown on
the first of July, with a view to a permanent residence." Also
that, "On the 2Tth. August therefore a fast was appointed, a
covenant formed and subscribed, Mr. Wilson was chosen Teacher,
Mr. Nowell an Elder, Mr, Gager and Mr, Aspinwall deacons."
This was William Aspinwall. His name was the tenth on the
list, and that of his wife, Elizabeth, the sixteenth. The society
soon removed across the river to Boston, but William Aspinwall
was the second on the list of thirteen who remained inhabitants
of Charlestown. He took the oath of freeman April 3, 1632,
In 1633, he also removed to Boston, where he appears to have been
one of the leading men of the new settlement at that place, and
was elected a selectman in 1636 and 1637. In 1637, he was chosen
a Deputy to the General Court, in place of Sir Henry Vane,
When the religious excitement, caused by the " Antinomian
Heresy," broke out, large numbers of the new Colony espoused
the cause advocated by Mrs, Ann Hutchinson, and her brother,
Rev. Mr, Wheelwright, Among them was William Aspinwall,
The controversy grew bitter, and, in March, 1637, the General
Court summoned Wheelwright to answer for a sermon recently
preached by him, "wherein, as they alleged, he had fanned the
flame of dissension instead of quenching it." Wheelwright was
pronounced guilty of sedition and contempt, but sentence was
deferred until the next Court. In the meantime, the church at
Boston presented a petition in his behalf, justifying his sermon.
This petition was drawn up by William Aspinwall, and was
signed by about sixty of the principal men in Boston. At the
12 WILLIAM ASPINWALL.
November meeting of the Court, William Aspinwall and John
Coggeshall, both deacons of the chtirch at Boston, and deputies
to the General Court from that town, were dismissed from the
Court, the one for having signed, and the other for defending
the remonstrance of the church. At the same term of the Court,
William Aspinwall was tried for the same offence, and, being
found guilty, was sentenced to be disfranchised and banished
from the Colony, but he was allowed to remain until the next
spring,
" A General Court, held atNewetown, the 2th Day of the 9th
Mo @ 1637. Mr. William Aspinwall being questioned in regard
his hand was to a petition or remonstrance, & he justified the
same, maintaining it to bee lawful ; the Court did discharge him
from being a member thereof."
"Mr. Willi: Aspinwall being convented for haveing his
hand to a petition or remonstrance, being a seditious libell, and
iustifing the same, for wch & for his insolent and turbulent car-
riage, hee is disfranchized & banished, puting in sureties tor his
departure before the end of the first month next ensuing. Mr.
John Glover & Mr. Aspinwall are each of them bound in a 100
pounds a piece for Mr. Aspinwall's depure by the time limited."
After his banishment, William Aspinwall followed Roger
Williams to Rhode Island, and was one of the nineteen Aquid-
neck settlers who signed the civil compact formed at Providence,
March 7, 1638, and was chosen the first Secretary of the new
Colony.
" The 7th day of the first month 1638.
We whose names are underwritten do here solemnly in the
presence of Jehovah incorporate ourselves into a Bodie Politick
and as he shall help, will submit our persons, lives and estates
unto our Lord Jesus Christ, the King of Kings and Lord of
Lords and to all tho e perfect and most absolute lawes of his
given us in his holy word of truth, to be guided and judged
thereby."

and fourteen others.
William Aspinwall held several positions of trust in Rhode
Island, but, at a General Meeting, January 11, 1639, "the magis-
WILLIAM ASPINWALL. 13
trates were directed to deal with William Aspinwall concerning
his defaults."
On February 7, 1639, Mr. Aspinwall was proceeded against
as a suspected person, for sedition against the state.
"Mr. Aspinwall, being a suspected person for sedition
against the State, it was thought meet that a stay of the building
of his Bote should be made, whereupon ye workman was for-
bidden to proceed any further."
He probably left Rhode Island soon after this, and during
the next three years the only record of him that has been found,
which shows his whereabouts, is his testimony as a witness in a
case before the General Court at New Haven, Conn., on March
2, 1642.
At a General Court, held at Boston, October 7, 1641, the
following order was passed : —
" Willi: Aspinwall hath a safe conduct granted him to come
& satisfy the counsell &, if they think meete, to stay till the
General Court; if not hee is to depart till the General Court, &
then hee hath liberty to come to the Gen^'all Court,"
Early in 1642, his sentence of banishment was revoked, and
he again took up his residence in Boston.
" In the beginning of the year 1612, Mr. Aspinwall that had
been censured by the Court for joining with those, and having
his hand to the remonstrance about Mr. Wheelwright, being
licensed by the General Court to come and tender his submission,
was on the 27th of March that year, reconciled to the Church of
Boston. He made a very free and full acknowledgment of his
errour and seducement, and that with much detestation of his
sin. The like he did afterwards before the magistrates, who
were appointed by the Court to take his submission ; and upon
thir certificate thereof, the sentence of banishment passed against
him with the rest, was taken off."
" William Aspinwall, upon his cirtifficat of his good car-
riage, is restored againe to his former liberty and freedome."
He was a man of superior education for those times, and was
soon appointed to several important offices. In 1643, he was
appointed clerk of the writs for Boston, and in 1644 was chosen
Recorder, and in the same year was appointed a Notary Public.
He held these offices for some eight years, and a large portion of
the deeds and other legal papers in and about Boston during that
14 WILLIAM ASPINWALL.
time were drawn, executed or witnessed by him. In 1643, he
joined the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company of Boston.
He lived on Washington Street, just south of School Street,
and his land extended back to the Common.
During his residence in Boston, it is recorded that, "divers
of the Merchants of Boston being desirous of discovering the
great lake * * -^ they set out in a pinnace which was to sail
up the Delaware River so high as they could go, and then some
of the company under the conduct of Mr. William Aspinwall, a
good artist, and one who had been in those parts, to pass by
small skiffs or canoes up the river as far as they could." They
were, however, prevented from going up the river by the Dutch
and the Swedes ; were fired upon from a fort, and were obliged
to return to Boston without discovering the " Great Lake."
The statement that William Aspinwall "had been in those
parts," leads to the belief that he must have been there between
the time of leaving Rhode Island and his return to Boston in
1642.
He seems to have had the faculty of continually getting hiin-
self into trouble. At the General Court, October 14, 1651, "Mr.
William Aspinwall being accused for chargeing the Court and
jury to goe agt law and conscience in making the landlord to pay
rent to the tenant, which the Courte hauinge heard & examined,
doe order & determine as follows, viz : that from hencefor'th the
sd Mr. Aspinwall shalbe suspended from the exercisinge the
office of recorder, or clarke, in any County Court, as also to pay
the sum of thirty shillinge to the jury for their attendance and
entringe the petition, & for the attendance of two witnesses,
fower shillinges, & It is ordered that Mr. Edward Rawson, secre-
tary to the General Court, shall henceforth be recorder for the
county of Suffolk, & that Mr. Aspinwall shall deliver him all the
records belonging to the sd county. Its ordered by this Court,
that vpon the request of the inhabitants of Boston, Jonathan
Negoos shalbe approued of as Clarke of the writts for that
towne, in the room of Mr. Aspinwall, who is hereby ordred to
deliver him the recordes of deaths, births and marriages as
belonginge to that office."
Soon after this he returned to England, where he lived the
remainder of his life. The date and place of his death have not
been ascertained, but, on April 13, 1662, he was living at Ches-
ter, England, as a letter, written by him from there on that date,
WILLIAM ASPINWaLL. 15
referring to land in Boston which he gave to his son, is in the
Massachusetts archives.
Not long since a diary or journal, kept by him while recorder
at Boston, was fortunately discovered in that city. It is of
great historic interest, and it is understood is to be published
by the Record Commissioners of Boston. He published, in Lon-
don, in 1653, a curious religious work entitled, " A Brief Descrip-
tion of the Fifth Monarchy or Kingdom That shortly is to come
into the World." In this work he predicted the arrival of the
millenium not later than the year 1673.
In 165-i, he published, "An explication and Application of
the Seventh Chapter of Daniel, etc."
In 1655, he published, in London, " An Abstract of Laws &
Government, wherein as in a mirror may be seen the wisdom
and perfection of the Government of Christ's Kingdom, accom-
modable to any State or form of government in the world, that is
not anti-Christian or tyrannical. Collected and digested into the
ensuing method by that godly, grave and judicious divine, Mr.
John Cotton of Boston, in New England, in his lifetime, and pre-
sented to the General Court of Massachusetts. And now pub-
lished after his death by William Aspinwall."
He also published, in 1655, at London, " The Work of the
Age, or the Sealed prophecies of Daniel opened and applied.
Amending sundry places in our common translation, etc."
In 1656, he published, in London, " The Legislative Power
is Christ's peculiar Prerogative, proved from the 9th of Isaiah,
vers. 6, 7, by William Aspinwall."
William Aspinwall probably came from the County of Lan-
caster, England, where the Aspinwalls were principally located.
He left no descendants bearing his name in this country, unless
Peter Aspinwall, whose descendants are given in this work, was
his son. His two eldest daughters, however, married and
remained here. His wife and four youngest children no doubt
returned to England with him, as no further record has been
found of them in this country. Of his children given below,
all but Mary were born after the arrival of their parents in 1630.
The birth of Mary is not recorded at Boston, but she was
undoubtedly, as believed by Mr. Savage, in his Genealogical
16 WILLIAM ASPINWALL.
Dictionary, the daughter of William Aspinwall. No other family
of Aspinwalls was in this country except that of Peter Aspinwall,
and she certainly was not his daughter. It is true that Mary
Aspinwall did not marry John Gove, of Cambridge, until several
years after the date of her father's return to England, but, being
of mature years at that time, no doubt preferred to remain in
this country. She is therefore recorded as the oldest child in
this family.

PETER ASPINWALL AND HIS DESCENDANTS.
Peter Aspinwall, the founder of the Aspinwall family in this
country, was undoubtedly related to William Aspinwall of the
preceding chapter, although the compiler of this work has not
been able to establish the exact relationship. It is believed that
he was either a son or a brother, more probably a brother.
Dr. William Aspinwall, of Brookline, Mass., a great-grand-
son of Peter Aspinwall, wrote an account of the family in 1767,
which is in the possession of one of his descendants. This was
written at a time when he should have been in possession of the
information warranting the statements he made. He says,
" Peter Aspinwall came from Toxteth Park, near Liverpool, Old
England, to Dorcester, near Boston, in New England, in company
with the 4000 who came in the year 1630." Aside from this state-
ment, that Peter Aspinwall came in 1630, we have no knowledge,
and the first mention of him on any records is in May, 1645, at
which time he was made a freeman (or voter) by the General
Court, and was then living at Dorchester, Mass. About this
time, he was married to his first wife, for the records of the First
Church of Boston show that, " Also o^ sister Alice Sharp now ye
wife of Peter Aspinwall of Dorchester had Ires of Recomend
granted unto her to ye Church at Dorchester. The 8th day of
ye 4th moneth (June) 1645."
If Peter Aspinwall came in 1630, it is strange that we have
no mention of him at Boston or Dorchester, prior to 1645. We
know, from a deposition made by him in 1664, that he was born
about 1612, and yet he was not made a freeman until 1645, when
he was 33 years of age, which i/S somewhat singular, if he had
been here since 1630.
Nothing further concerning him appears on the Dorchester
records, and, in 1650, he removed to Muddy River, now known
[3]

as Brookline, Mass., where, in connection with one Robert Sharp,
perhaps his brother-in-law, he purchased a farm of one hundred
and fifty acres. The following is a copy of the deed of said farm :
"14(9)1650.
Mr Wni Coleborne of Boston granted vnto Peter Aspinwall
& Robt Sharpe his fferme at Muddy river containing an hundd
& fifty Acres more or lesse Wth all houseing fenceing^ woods
marshes &c : together with sixteene Acres in the Common ffield
bounded wth Muddy River East John Aredley South, the Cedar
swampe west & Garret Bourne north. The fferme aforesd was
bounded wth Mr, Cotton south muddy river East, William Pell
west, Jacob Eliot Edward Devotion & James Browne North.

bron wife to ye sd W^ Colbron did ye IT Jaini 1654 acknowledge
before me that she freely gave hir Consent to ye sale and
Renounct hir dowrie therein.
Humphrey Atherton."
This deed is in the handwriting of William Aspinwall, men-
tioned in the preceding chapter, who was at the time Recorder
of Deeds in Boston.
Upon this farm, Peter Aspinwall, in the year 1660, built the
house which was the family homestead for many generations,
and which is shown as a frontispiece to this work. This house
stood until the 3'ear 1891, when it was taken down, being at that
time the oldest house in the old town of Brookline. It was
located on the present Aspinwall Avenue, near St. Paul's Church.
Here Peter Aspinwall lived and died. He was a farmer, and,
judging by the inventory of his estate, taken after his death,
which included a tanning outfit, he probably carried on also the
tanning business. He does not appear to have been very
conspicuous in public affairs, but held several town offices. He
was surveyor in 1651-2; also in 1661-2, and Constable in 1667.
He was appointed, April 24, 1676, with two others, a committee
" for the preventinge of excessive drinkinge & disorder in private
houses," and was elected, March 25, 1678, " to oversee and reg-
ulate the ffences about the common ffield at Muddy River."
If we accept the account of Dr. William Aspinwall, pre-
viously referred to, Peter Aspinwall was three times married,
PETER ASPINWALL AND DESCENDANTS. 19
althougli no record, nor other evidence has been found indicating'
that he was married more than twice. His first. wife was Alice
Sharp, who may have been a sister of that Robert Sharp, in con-
nection with whom he bought the farmx described in the fore-
going deed. He married her, probably, early in 1645. Dr. Aspin-
wall, in his account savs, "he married Morrill and lived
with her 16 years without children; and then he married
Remember Palfrey." Dr. Aspinwall does not mention a wife
Alice Sharp, and it is possible that he was mistaken in the name
of the first wife, and that there was no wife Morrill.
The compiler believes that Alice Sharp, the first wife of
Peter Aspinwall, lived until about 1661, which would be 16
years from 1615, when we know that she was his wife. On Feb-
ruary 12, 1662, as time is now reckoned, Peter Aspinwall was
married by Gov. John Endicott to Remember, daughter of Peter
and Edith Palfrey, of Reading, Mass. She was baptized at Salem,
Mass., September 16, 1638.
Peter Palfrey came from England with the "Dorchester"
Company, which began a plantation at Cape Anne, Mass., in
1621, of which Roger Conant was governor. This company was
not successful, and, in 1626, the enterprise was relinquished, and
most of the emigrants returned to England. Peter Palfrey, how-
ever, and two others, remained with Conant, and, in the autumn
of 1626, removed to a place called Naumkeag, and laid the
foundations for a town, which was subsequently called Salem,
now the city of Salem, Mass. He was admitted freeman, May
18, 1631, at the same time with Roger Conant, and, in 1632,
was a Deputy from Salem to the first General Court of the Mass-
achusetts Bay Colony. In 1652, he removed to Reading, Mass.,
where he died September 15, 1663, "well stricken in years."
The name of his wife, Edith, is not known.
The exact date of Peter Aspinwall's death is not known, but
it was between November 20, 1687, the date of his will, and
December 9, 1687, the date of the inventory of his estate. The
date of his widow's death has not been ascertained, but she was
not living on April 1, 1701.
20 PETER ASPINWALL AND DESCENDANTS.
The following is a copy of Peter Aspinwall's will, which was
presented for probate by his widow and his eldest son, Samuel,
on January 20, 1692 :
"In the name of God, Amen, my soul I commit into the
arms of Jesus Christ my Saviour, my body to be decently buried :
after necessary expenses are defrayed, my just and lawfull debts
satisfyed, my CvState divided in raanner following, my will is,
that my beloved wife Remember Aspinwall be my executrix and
that she shall have one third part of my whole estate with her
choice of which part, to continue the time of her widowhood : if
she change her condition, then to leave the houseing & land to
my children, and the moveables to be at her disposing.
2. That my eldest son Samll Aspinwall be my executor and
that he have a double portion of my estate, if after division of
my estate anything be put to sale, he to have the first refusall
of it.
3. That my second son Peter Aspinwall to keep what of
my estate he has in hand, if it be more than his just proportion,
not to return any back ; yet if he have not equal to ye rest of my
children then to be made up out of my estate.
4. That all the rest of my children, Nathaniel Aspinwall,
Thomas Aspinwall, Joseph Aspinwall, Eleazar Aspinwall,
Timothy Aspinwall, Mehetable Aspinwall, Elizabeth Aspinwall,
Mary Aspinwall, that they have an equal proportion of my estate :
In case any of those dy before they be of age to make a will, that
then his or her proportion be divided equally among the rest.
I do give power to my executrix and executor to call in any
debt by bill or bond to improve for the good of the whole. Also
that corne meat as provision for ye family for this yeare be not

feeble to do so, and, as was common in those times, on such an
'Occasion, he affixed his mark to his will. There is evidence that
he was able to write.
It will be noticed that one of the witnesses to this will was
John Gove, who lived at Cambridge, Mass. This John Gove,
as will be seen in the preceding chapter, was a son-in-law of
William Aspinwall of Boston, and later, on August 28, 1704,
when John Gove made his own will, he named Samuel, oldest
son of Peter Aspinwall, one of the overseers of his estate. This
strengthens the belief of a near relationship between William
and Peter Aspinwall. The only evidence we have of Peter
iVspinwall's age, is contained in a deposition made by him on
October 8, 1664, in which he states that he is aged about 52
years, so he was about 50 years old when he married Remember
Palfrey, the mother of all of his children. No attempt has been
made to trace his English ancestry, but should such an effort be
made, a possible clue, inay be afforded through the will of James
Clark of Boston, afterwards of Muddy River, dated September
11, 1667, in which he names his cousin, Peter Aspinwall.

PETER ASPINWALL AND DESCENDANTS. 23
SECOND GENERATION.
Samue?, eldest son and child of Peter' and Remember
(Palfrey) Aspinwall, was born at Muddy River (Brookline), Mass.,
November 4, 1662. He was a farmer and a leading man in town
affairs. He was elected Surveyor in 1690-1 ; was subsequently
Constable, Assessor, Fence- Viewer, Tythingman and Selectman,
holding the last named office for thirteen years between 1699 and
1718. He was also elected to view the town treasurer's ac-
counts ; to a committee to make a new pound ; to choose a bury-
ing place ; to manage the concerns or affairs of building a
meetinghouse; to seat the meeting house ; "to treat with Mr.
James Allin who was chosen to be (our) gospel minister," and
was appointed guardian to orphan minors, etc.
He went as a lieutenant of militia in the expedition against
Port Royal in the year 1690, and was present when Sir William
Phips took the fort. He v/as subsequently Captain of the com-
pany of militia at Brookline. Mr. Lewis Tappan, who was a
son-in-law of Dr. William Aspinwall, the grandson of Samuel
Aspinwall, in his diary, now in the possession of a descendant,
Mr. Edward A. Bowen, of Brooklyn, N. Y., relates the following
incidents :
"Some one recollected, and told his grandson, Dr. William
Aspinwall, of Capt. Samuel Aspinwall's notifying his company,
on the public parade in Roxbury, to meet on a certain day to see
about building a meeting house in Brookline. He made the
bricks to fill in the old meeting house. When it was taken down,
Dr. William Aspinwall purchased these bricks, and filled the
walls of the west room of his new house with them. Capt.
Aspinwall also built the school house which stood on Esq.
Sharp's land, nearly opposite the present school house in the
lane leading to the Cambridge road. He was of great strength.
There is an anecdote related of him showing the presence and
firmness of his mind. At a tavern on Boston Neck, there was a
M PETER ASPINWALL AND DESCENDANTS.
lion kept, which was tamed for exhibition. Some persons
thought they might frighten Capt. Aspinwall with the
animal. He had never seen a lion, and was conducted to his
apartment, when at the management of his keeper, the animal
sprang upon him, putting his fore paws upon his breast, making
a tremendous roaring. Capt. Aspinwall merely said, ' what is
the matter with the beast ?' "
This lion was advertised for exhibition in The Boston News
Letter in March and April, 1718, as follows:
"All Persons having the Curiosity of seeing the noble and
Royal Beast the Lyon, never one before in America, may see
him at the House of Capt. Arthur Savage near Mr. Cohnans
Church, Boston, before he is transported to London. But to pre-
vent all disputes with the negro at the Gate who constantly
attends each Person (whether seen him before or not) is desired
to pay to the said Negro six pence a piece."
A further extract from Lewis Tappan's diary states :
" Capt. Aspinwall planted the great elm tree (Aspinwall
elm). Samuel, the present deacon Clark's great-grandfather
lived with him at the time, and saw him (S. A.) carry it in his
hand and set it out. Clark was then about 10 years old."
This magnificent elm tree, which overshadowed the old
Aspinwall house at Brookline, stood until 1844, when nearly half
of it fell, and, about 1870, the rest of it followed, breaking a
hole through the roof of the house. It measured twenty feet in
circumference near the surface of the ground, and sixteen feet
and eight inches at five feet from the ground. The branches
extended 104 feet from S. E. to N. W. In an address, by the
Hon. Robert C. Winthrop, at the dedication of the Town Hall in
Brookline, on February 22, 1873, he said:
" And now we have a name as eminent for its worth, as it is
first in alphabetical order. The sixth and seventh signers (to the
petition for the formation of the town of Brookline in 1705, ed.)
were Samuel and Eleazar Aspinwall. Capt. Samuel Aspinwall
was born here in 1657 (1662, ed.), and, from that time to this,
whether as hamlet, village, or town, Brookline has never been
without a distinguished bearer of his name and blood. The old
house built by his father, before 1666, is still standing, or at
least trying to stand. Of the venerable elm, which overshadowed
it certainly for more than a hundred and fifty years, if indeed it
was not coeval with Columbus, nothing remains but the antique
roots, and a few feet of massive but mutilated trunk. They are

almost the last relics of the old Muddy River Hamlet, and I wish
they could be enclosed and inscribed as a monument of the
remote past. What an inspiring stump that would be for an
open-air speech on some historical anniversary ! If nothing else
can be done, I trust that enough of it may be secured as a desk
for this very platform. If it were here at this moment, my
manuscript would have a most congenial resting place, — more
precious than the most skillful carving or veneering of Oak, or
Maple, or Satin-Wood."
Capt. Samuel Aspinwall married, about 1689, Sarah, the
daughter of Capt. Timothy and Sarah (Davis) Stevens, of Rox-
bjiry, Mass. She was born March 6, 1667, and died April 1, 1710.
She was buried in the old Roxbury graveyard, near the graves
of her parents. The celebrated Samuel Sewall, in his " letter-
book", says: " My neighbor Mrs. Sarah Aspinwall, died April
1, 1710. I being a bearer had given me a pair of wash leather
gloves."
Capt. Timothy Stevens was the son of John Stevens of New-
bury, Mass. He married Sarah, daughter of Tobias Davis.
John Stevens and wife Elizabeth came from England, to New-
bury, Mass., in 1638.
Capt. Samuel Aspinwall was drowned in the Cambridge
River near Elliot's Island, September 6, 1727. At his family
devotions that morning, he read the 27th chapter of Proverbs,
beginning with, "Boast not thyself of to-morrow, for thou
knowest not what a day may bring forth." The New England
Weekly Journal of Boston, in its issue of September 11, 1727,
contains the following from a correspondent in Brookline : —
"On Wednesday last the 6th currant Capt. Samuel Aspinwall
of this place and three others went out in a canoe to a place where
they might gather oyster shells, and leaving the company was
coming to the shore alone in the canoe, but meeting with a
paddle that stuck up in the mud he attempted to draw the same
out but finding it difficult the tyde being against him, and unawares
pitched over the canoe in the water and was drowned. He was
seen to rise once and no more and no help could be afforded him.
* * * * They went to find him that night but could not.
The next morning about 8 they found him not far from the place
where he was drowned, and on Saturday he was decently
interred. The Company he was late Captain of being in arms.

He was a man well beloved among us and his death is much
lamented by all that knew him."
In the "letter-book" of Samuel Sewall, heretofore men-
tioned, he says: —

Journal No. 25. Sept. 9th. went to Brookline to his funeral.

Peter', son of Peter' and Remember (Palfrey) Aspinwall,
was born at Muddy River, or Brookline, Mass., June 4, 1664.
He " took hold of the Covenant 1684, 2 mo 5 day."
The settlement of Woodstock, Ct., was made by residents
of Roxbury, Mass. They secured the grant of a tract of land
seven miles square, in what was called the " Nipmuck Country."
About the first of April, 1686, they sent out thirteen pioneers in
advance of the others, to break up land and make some prepara-
tions for the main body of colonists. They are recorded in the
first book of records of Roxbury as " the men who went to spy
out Woodstock." One of these thirteen pioneers was Peter
Aspinwall. At the settlement, on Saturday, August 28, 1686,
at Woodstock, they drew lots, and Peter Aspinwall drew "20
Acres, west side of the eastward vale, abutting east on highway."
This eastward vale is now known as South Woodstock, Ct. In 1696,
during the trouble with the Indians, a military company was
formed at Woodstock, with Peter Aspinwall as lieutenant, and
he took an active part in all the campaigns against the Indians,
and was a prominent figure in all matters attending the early

history of Woodstock. He was employed by the authorities to
lay out a road to the Quimebaug, and, while thus engaged, he
removed to the vicinity of the Great Falls. About 1703, he
removed to a tract of land he had purchased at Aspinock, now
Killingly, Ct., and devoted his energies to the settlement of that
town. In 1713, Killingly sent him as the first representative of
that town, to the General Assembly, of which he was also a
member in 17U, 1716, 1719, 1720, 1721, 1722, 1723, 1727 and
1728. He was a leading citizen of Killingly. In 1716, he was
elected Justice of the Peace, and held other public offices. In
1715, at the organization of the church at Killingly, he was
chosen deacon. He also gave a plot of land for a burial ground. ^^
On March 24, 1699, he married, at Woodstock, Elizabeth, ._Z4.^i
the widow of John Leavens of that place. Her maiden name
has not been ascertained.
In Dr. AVilliam Aspinwall's manuscript, heretofore men-
tioned, he states :
" Peter, the son of Peter, was settled at Woodstock and
married a widow with a large number of children, her and her
children was Levens they and she always kept him low ; he had
by her one daughter and she married a Bateman and had a son
and several daughters, said Peter was a meek sensible man and
a Deacon."
The date of death of Peter Aspinwall, and that of his wife,
are unknown. The records of Windham County, Ct., show that
he was alive on June 4, 1749, at which time he was 85 years old.

Nathanier, son of Peter' and Remember (Palfrey) Aspinwall,
was born at Muddy River (Brookline), on June 5, 1666. In the
year 1690, he and his younger brother, Thomas, under their
neighbor. Captain Andrew Gardner, went on the expedition of
Sir William Phips against Canada, in which Thomas, as well as
his commander, perished. After his return, Nathaniel followed
his brother Peter to Woodstock, Ct. In 1699, in connection

with his brother, Samuel Perrin and Benjamin Griggs, he pur-
chased of Rev. Noahdiah Russell, two hundred acres of land,
"east side of Quimebaug, alias Aspinock River, according to
the Indian name," for twenty pounds. He did not remove there,
however, but continued to reside at Woodstock. He served
several terms as a selectman at Woodstock, between 170-i and
1709. Dr. William Aspinwall, writing in 1767, says of him,
"he was a very careful, sober, good Christian, an Israelite
indeed."
He was married at Woodstock by the Rev. Nehemiah
Walter, on November 11, 1698, to Abigail, daughter of Henry
and Elizabeth (Johnson) Bowen. She was born in Roxbury,
Mass., and was baptized August 21, 1670.
Lieut. Henry Bowen was the son of Griffith' Bowen. He
married Elizabeth, daughter of Capt. Isaac and Elizabeth (Porter)
Johnson, of Roxbury.
Griffith Bowen, son of Francis Bowen of Llangenwydd, Co,
Glamorgan, Wales, with wife, Margaret, daughter of Henry
Fleming, came to New England in 1638, and were of
Boston, where he was made a freeman May 22, 1639. He
returned to England with his wife and several of his children in
1649.
Nathaniel Aspinwall died between February 15, 1712, the
date of his will at Woodstock, and June 4, 17J 3, the date when
it was proved at Boston. His widow died at Woodstock, April
16, 1736.

EleazarS son of Peter' and Remember (Palfrey) Aspinwall,
was born October 9, 1673, at Muddy River (Brookline), Mass.
He lived for some time, at Brookline, on the farm of Capt. Robert
Sharpe, and was also engaged in the manufacture of bricks. In
1701, he was living in Cambridge, and not long afterwards in
Roxbury. While making bricks at Muddy River, in 1701, he
went to law over the delivery of some bricks, the defendant set-
ting up the claim that they were of inferior quality, and declined
to pay for them. It is not of record how this suit terminated.
In 1720, he removed to the town of Wallingford, Ct., where
he took charge of a farm belonging to Gov. Belcher of Massachu-
setts. This farm was situated half-way between Hartford and New
Haven, where is now the city of Meriden. The place was called
the " Stone half-way house." He subsequently removed to the
adjoining town of Farmington (Kensington Parish), where he
died in the year 1742. In the sketch written by Dr. William
Aspinwall (1767), he says of Eleazar Aspinwall: —
" He was a passionate man, a hard laborer, apparently relig-
ious, but wilful, and too much governed by a bad wife ; a strong
PETER ASPINWALL AND DESCENDANTS. ' 31
man at argument. He died in the field with his hoe in his
hand."
Administration on his estate was granted to Alary and Aaron
Aspinwall, his widow and son, July 6, 1742. It was appraised
July 2, 17J:2, and amounted to more than seven hundred pounds.
According to the probate records, his property was divided among
his children, Aaron, who had a double portion, Mary Adkins,
Hamatter, and Anna Nott. This is clearly a mistake as far as a
child Hamatter is concerned, and no doubt the daughter Huldah
Cotton was meant. This is evidenced by the fact that soon after
said settlement of the estate, Mary Adkins, Anna Nott and Hul-
dah Cotton executed a quit-claim deed, in which they say,
"to onr on/y and well beloved brother Aaron Aspinwall," and
the deed was for "the lands that our honored father Elizer
Aspinwall /e-/^ dii'ideable amongst us.' Also, in 1739, Eleazar
Aspinwall deeded land to his only son Aaron.
He married, at Roxbury, Mass., date unknown, Mary

Joseph', vSon of Peter' and Remember (Palfrey) Aspinwall,
and twin brother of Eleazar (No. 8), was born at Muddy River
(Brookline), Mass., October 9, 1673. Before he was of age, he
went to sea, and finally commanded a vessel of his own. Dr.
William Aspinwall, in the sketch written in 1767, which has
been several times heretofore quoted, says of him :
" Joseph the son of Peter went to sea before he was of age,
and at last married at New York, had a vessell of his own and
was taken several times and once carried into Port Royal when
his brother Samuel was in the army besieging and once to
France. He was burnt out at Seabrook in the winter where he
kept shop. He was put in jail for debt and again went to the sea
to the West Indies where he was made Lieutenant of the Oueen
32 PETER ASPINWALL AND DESCENDANTS.
of Spain which was in a negro trade from Jamaica to Carthagena
and Porto Bello. He married a niece of Lord B llomont. He lived
with her while he was in the office of Lieutenant but she died and he
came home master of a large ship consigned to Mr. Farweather ;
he went off with the vessel again, was put out of business and
in about 2 years returned to Brookline to the Farm which
belonged to Thomas Aspinwall son of Samuel, son of Peter where
he lived many years and there married the widow of Samuel
Smith the brother of Nat Smith the miser ; he lived with her 5
or 6 years and then died about 70 years of age. Before he was
married he lived in Little Cambridge in the house belonging to
Mr. Larned nigh Cunningham's country seat. He was of a mid-
dling stature, well proportioned and very genteel and something
handsome ; he was very passionate very gay, facetious, good
company and always loose and exceedingly careless of his own
and children's affairs."
To the foregoing general sketch of Joseph Aspinwall's life
are added the following details, which are all that have been
ascertained concerning him :
As early as the year 1700, probably some time before, he
lived in New York City, and so continued until 1711, when he
removed to Saybrook, Ct., where he kept a store and also com-
manded a sloop out of that port called the "Joseph Burthen."
He was made a freeman of the City of New York, June 6, 1710.
May 1, 1711, he subscribed one pound, two shillings, towards
finishing the steeple of Trinity Church, New York. In Decem-
ber, 1711, while living at Saybrook, he was allowed by the Con-
necticut Assembly the sum of nineteen pounds, eleven shillings,
and sixpence for the charges of Capt. Crane's funeral. In Octo-
ber, 1712, he petitioned the Connecticut Assembly, praying for
an allowance "for a considerable sum in publick bills of credit
of this Colony lost by fire sometime in Winter last past at
Wethersfield where he then sojourned."
He was burned out at Saybrook, and, about 1713-14, he
removed to Dedham, Mass. In 1714, he was imprisoned for
a debt of one hundred and twenty-eight pounds, four shillings
and fourpence, due Philip Hedman of Boston, merchant. His
release was ordered by the Court of General Sessions at Boston,
after he had " declared upon his oath what effects were belong-
ing to him."
PETER ASPINWALL AND DESCENDANTS. 33
How long he lived in Dedham is not known. His first wife
probably died while he was living there, and he went to sea
again. In 1724, while of Dedham, he bought 84 acres of land,
in Killingly, Ct. , of his brother Peter, but sold it back to him in
1728. There is no evidence that he ever lived on it.
December 5, 1729, an attachment was issued against the
estate of Joseph Aspinwall, " late of Saybrook in our Colony of
Connecticnt, now residing in Boston, mariner, for six hundred
pounds, to answer to Magdalen Hickells of Elizabethtown,
N. J." The jury found for the defendant.
September 1, 1740, he petitioned the General Court of Mass-
achusetts renewing his offer to go as a pilot for the Spanish
coasts.
The exact date of his death is not known. Dr. William
Aspinwall wrote that he died at the age of about 70 years.
If Dr. Aspinwall's account is correct, then Joseph Aspinwall
was three times married.
He married, first at New York City, in 1700, Hannah, daugh-
ter of Christopher and Hannah Deane. The license for this
marriage was granted on June 6, 1700.
Christopher Deane, of New York City, in his will, proved
May 9, 1692, names wife Hannah, mother-in-law Ruth Simms,
son John, and wife's son Adam Wallis. Names also daughter
Hannah, not then of age. No further account has been secured
of him.
The date of Hannah Aspinwall's death is not known, but
she was living May 1, 1712, for, on that date, Joseph Aspinwall
and Hannah, his wife, gave their bond for seventy-six pounds,
two shillings and three pence, to Benjamin D'harricotte, mer-
chant, of New York, to secure the payment of thirty-eight
pounds, one shilling and one and one-half pence.
He next married, according to the account of Dr. William
Aspinwall, a niece of Lord Bellomont, governor of the Massa-
chusetts Bay Colony. This was probably while he lived at
Dedham, and about the time he went to sea again. From Dr.
William Aspinwall's account, she probably died abroad, perhaps
in the West Indies. The name of this wife has not been ascer-
tained. Some five or six years before his death, he married, at

As to the children of Joseph Aspinwall, the compiler of this
work has been unable to find but two, Joseph and John, although
there may have been others. These children were by his first
wife, Hannah Deane.
It is proper to give here the reasons for asserting that
Joseph^ of Dedham, and John^ of New York City, were the sons
of Joseph Aspinwall and Hannah Deane. As to Joseph', of
Dedham (No. 38), we know that Joseph' Aspinwall removed from
Saybrook to Dedham, and lived there for a number of years
before he went to sea again, and, in 1729, Joseph' (No. 38),
Aspinwall appears on the records at Dedham. No other Aspin-
wall family was in that locality at that period, and there can be
no doubt, from name, localit3% tradition of descendants, religious
persuasion (both being Episcopalians), etc., that Joseph' (No. 38),
was the son of Joseph and Hannah (Deane) Aspinwall. As to
John' (No. 39), Dr. William Aspinwall, in his sketch, says, "the
New York Aspinwalls proceeded from Samuel Aspinwall's
brother Joseph." But we have still further proof. The late
L. M. Sargent, of Boston, who published in the Boston Tran-
script a series of articles on the celebrated Dr. William Aspin-
wall, and who had gone over the latter's papers and correspond-
ence, states :
" He seems to have found a kind friend and efficient advo-
cate in his relative Mr. John Aspinwall of Flushing (No. 39),
whom about this time (1768) he happened to meet at New Haven,
and who had no difficulty in appreciating the merits of his young
kinsman."
Soon afterwards, John Aspinwall wrote from Flushing to
his cousin Thomas at Brookline :
"I had the pleasure of seeing one of your sons at New
Haven in August last, which gave me great satisfaction. He
informed me of the welfare of your family, and acquainted
me that he was studying physic with Dr. Gale of Killingworth.
* * * * *
On June 7, 1769, Dr. William Aspinwall, when returning
home from Philadelphia, paid a brief visit to John Aspinwall at
Flushing, who on that day addressed a letter to Thomas, Dr.
William's father, in which he says, " I have now the pleasure of
PETER ASPINWALL AND DESCENDANTS. 35
writing you, by your dear son, who returned from Philadelphia
to my house yesterday. * ^ ■» * * I have, agreeably to
your request, supplied him with the money you desired, and I
believe he has been frugal and careful."
This establishes the relationship between the Brookline
family and John Aspinwall (No. 39), of New York and Flushing.
Descendants of Joseph (No. 38), also state that their ancestor's
brother, John, went when a young man from Dedham to New
York.
Of the two sons, Joseph was probably the elder, as John
was born not earlier than 1705, and Joseph was married in 1728.

place. He was born at Dedham, September 15, 1673, and was
the son of John and Abigail (Fisher) Baker of Dedham, and John
was the son of Edward Baker, who came from England to Lynn,
Mass., in 1630, with wife Jane.

Elizabeth', daughter of Samuel' (Peter'), and Sarah (Stevens)
Aspinwall, was born March 25, 1693. She married Peter Gard-
ner of Muddy River (Brookline).
"They lived where Capt. Gridley had his country seat. She
died at the birth of her only child about seven months after she
was married. Her child was Nathaniel, who died in the nine-
teenth year of his age, of a consumption. He was a very sober
young man." (Dr. William Aspinwall, 1767).
Children :
44, NATHANIELS b. ; d. in his 19th year.

Samuer, son of Samuel' (Peter'), and Sarah (Stevens) Aspin-
wall, was born February 13, 1696. He was educated at Harvard
College, and was designed for the ministry, but being of a weak
constitution, abandoned the idea, and died of consumption,
August 13, 1732. The following is taken from the New England
Weekly Journal, Boston, of the issue of Monday, September 11,
1732:
"Brookline, 21" August.
On the 13th inst died here Mr. Samuel' Aspinwall of this
town in the 37 year of his age after between six and seven years
sickness. He commenced Master of Arts in Cambridge in 1717
and was designed for the ministry, but discouraged by his
inward weakness, which after he had for some little time settled
here, so advanced as to take him off from business, and at. length
proved fatal. He was a gentleman of bright parts, natural and
acquired, a strong memory, quick wit and solid judgment ; pleas-
ant in his conversation, a steady friend and a good Christian."
A sermon was preached by Rev. James Allin, pastor of the
church at Brookline, and dedicated to Mr. Thomas AspinwalU
PETER ASPINWALL AND DESCENDANTS. 37
brother of the deceased. The text was from Psalms, 102, 11-12;
subject, " The Eternity of God and the Short Life of Man con-
sidered."
Samuel Aspinwall never married. His will was dated
August 10, 1732, and appointed his brother Thomas sole execu-
tor. He bequeathed seventy pounds to each of his three sisters,
Mary Gardner, ]Mehitable Craft and Sarah Aspinwall; " also to
pay unto Nathaniel Gardner, son of my late sister, Elizabeth
Gardner, thirty-five pounds when he comes of age. I also give
to my Aunt Pain of Boston, £?> and to my Aunt Mehitabel
Aspinwall 40 shs a year during her life." The Aunt Pain must
have been an aunt on the side of his mother.

Thomas', son of Samue? (Peter') and Sarah (Stevens) Aspin-
wall, was born at Brookline, May 21, 1698. He was a farmer,
" and something of a carpenter." He lived and died m the

built a house near his own for his son Samuel. He was a Lieu-
tenant in the company of militia commanded by his father. He
held various offices. Was hogreave, 1722 ; selectman for ten
years between 1737 and 1758 ; constable, fence viewer, surveyor,
assessor and warden. Was chosen by the town to serve as jury-
man to the Superior Court, also to view the town treasurer's
reports, and on a committee to supply the pulpit. He died at
Brookline, June 1, 1774, of consumption. He married. May 16,
1728, Joanna, daughter of Capt. Caleb and Abiel (Phipps) Gard-
ner. She was born May 27, 1712, and died November 22, 1772.

date the church records at Killingly give the marriage of Deacon
Eleazar Bateman to Mrs. Hannah Cutler. In Dr. William Aspin-
wall's sketch (1767), he says that Mary, the daughter of Peter,
had one son and several daughters. I have found recorded,

Nathaniels son of Nathaniel' (Peter') and Abigail (Bowen)
Aspinwall, was born at Woodstock, Ct., September 7, 1709. He
lived at West Woodstock, Ct., and attended the church in the
West Parish. The following is taken from the church records:
" At a chh meeting held at ye meeting house by adjourn-
ment Tuesday Jan. 25, 1743, the meeting being opsnd with
prayr, the pastor communicated to the chh in writing the report
of a com*^® appointed to discourse with some members who had
repeatedly absented from the Lord's Supper administered in the
chh ; this being done Nath^i Aspenwall Delivered to the Chh in
writing the reason of his absenting as afore^^i, the substance of
whh was yt the Pastor had charged him with Lying and yt with*
any known provocation, upon whh s^ Aspenwall was asked
whether he meant s"^ reason as a Charge against ye Pastor.
S^ Aspenwall answered he did not mean it as a charge, after
much discourse upon the affair the Chh chose not to pass any
vote in ye matter at present but advised the Pastor and s^ Aspen-
wall to Discourse with Mr. Mosely in order and accommodation
and healing the difference."
Also the following :
" At a Chh meeting held at ye meeting house April 29, 1743,
The following votes were pass'^ —
44 PETER ASPINWALL AND DESCENDANTS.
(1) That altho we Judge ye reason given by Nath^^ Aspen-
wall is not sufficient to Justifie his past absenting from Commu-
nion, yet being willing to extend Charity as to his Design therein,
and upon his having desired to return to our Communion pro-
fessing Charity with this Chh both pastor and members, we
accept him, trusting for the future he will not act unbecoming a
member of this Chh. * * * * "
Nathaniel Aspinwall removed to Canterbury, Ct., prior to
1761. About that year, he bought a tract of land at Lake vSara-
toga, N. Y., from a royal agent, "on receipt of a peppercorn
on the feast of S* Michael every year for 10 years, the clearing of
several acres and then full possession." He did not, however,
remove to that place. His farm in Canterbury was called the
Peagscomsuck place. Nathaniel Aspinwall changed the spelling
of his name to Aspinwall, and his descendants have always
spelled the name in that way. He died at Canterbury, October
12, 1777.
He married, first, in Woodstock, date unknown, Mary Ham-
mond. Her parentage has not been ascertained, nor the date of
her death. He married, second, November 10, 1737, Mary,
daughter of William and Elizabeth (Spalding) Derby. She was
born March 16, 1721, and died March 12, 1803.

John', son of Joseph' (Peter') and Hannah (Deane) Aspin-
wall, was born probably in New York City, in 1705 or 1706. He
went with his parents to Saybrook, Ct., and thence to Dedham,
Mass. When a young man, he returned to New York and set-
tled there. He went to sea and became a captain of vessels out
of the port of New York. He was also a merchant in that city.
He amassed quite a fortune, and retired to his country seat at
Flushing, on Long Island. On October 8, 1735, he was elected
an alderman in New York City. He was one of the founders of
the New York (Society) Library, in 1753. From 1756 to 1760, he
was a vestryman of Trinity Church. Was made a member of the
Marine Society, April 12, 1772.
He married, August 28, 1728, Sarah', daughter of Capt.
James' and Sarah (Cornell) Sands of Oyster Bay, L L She died
December 4, 1765, in the 57th year of her age. From the New
York Gazette, of December 12, 1765, is taken the following:
48 PETER ASPINWALL AND DESCENDANTS.
" Wednesday evening the 4th inst departed this life in the
57th year of her age, Mrs. Sarah Aspinwall, and was decently
interred in the family vault. Her summons into eternity was
extremely sudden, but she received it with that fortitude and
resignation peculiar to the Christian character. Her family,
friends and acquaintance, in her death sustain a very great loss,
and can only comfort themselves under the dispensation by the
evidence of her faith and piety, which she has left behind her."
Capt. James' Sands, born in 1662, was the son of James'
Sands and Sarah Walker. He married Mary, daughter of John
Cornell.
James' Sands, Sr., born in 1622, at Reading, Eng., was of
Portsmouth, R. I., in 1643, afterwards of Taunton, Mass., and
then of Block Island.
John Aspinwall married, second, at Stamford, Ct., June 5,
1766, Rebecca*, daughter of William Henry' and Margaret
(Lloyd) Smith. She died at Flushing, November 25, 1809, aged
74 years.
William Henry' Smith was born October 29, 1708, and was
the son of Henry' Smith. He married Margaret, daughter of
Henry Lloyd.
Henry* Smith, born January 19, 1679, at Tangiers, Africa,
was the son of Col. William Smith. He married, January 1,
1705, Anna, daughter of Rev. Thomas Shepherd of Charlestown,
Mass.
Col. William' Smith was born in Northamptonshire, Eng.,
February 2, 1655. Was a Colonel in the Royal Army, and was
Governor of Algiers. Came to New York in 1686 and settled
there. Was Chief Justice of the Province of New York. He
married, at Tangiers, Africa, November 26, 1675, Martha, daugh-
ter of Henry Tunstall.
John Aspinwall died in New York, July 5, 1774.
As to the children of John Aspinwall, an explanation is
here necessary. It is probable that he had but one child, Han-
nah, by his first wife. From his will, dated November 13, 1768,
and two codicils thereto, dated February 26, 1770, and July 4,
1772, and from the will of his widow, dated January 25, 1807,
we can pretty nearly determine that all of the other children were
by the second wife. In his will, dated November 13, 1768, two
and one-half years after his second marriage, the only children
named by him are Hannah, John Lloyd, William Smith and Gil-
PETER ASPINWALL AND DESCENDANTS. 49
bert. Hannah, we know, was the child of his first wife, and
Gilbert, we know, was the child of the second wife. Lloyd was
the maiden name of the second wife's mother, and William Smith
was the name of one of her brothers, so these two children were,
undoubtedly, the issue of his second wife. Sarah is named in
the first codicil, as being then about one month old, and in the
second codicil provision is made for an expected child. This
must have been Margaret, as such a child is named in the widow's
will. John was born a fev/ months before his father's death.
John Lloyd is not mentioned in the widow's will, and, presum-
ably, died young. If, as has been pointed out, John Lloyd and
AVilliam Smith were the children of the second wife, then they
must have been twin children. A daughter of John Aspinwall
married Abijah Hammond. This must have been Margaret,
unless there was another daughter by the first wife, unmentioned
in his will. If it was Margaret, such marriage took place after
the date of her mother's will, as she was then single, Sarah, then
having been the wife of Richard Piatt.

William^ son of Thomas^ (Samuel', Peter') and Joanna
(Gardner) Aspinwall, was born at Brookline, Mass., " in the old
house," May 23, 1743. He died at Brookline, April 16, 1823.
He was fitted for college by Rev. Amos Adams of Roxbury, and
entered Harvard College in 1760. After he graduated, he taught
school at Groton, at Brookline and at Brighton, one year at each
place, and then went to Killingworth, Ct., where he studied
medicine with Dr. Benjamin Gale. He then went to the Penn-
sylvania hospital in Philadelphia, Pa., and attended a course of
lectures, remaining there from October, 1768, to May, 1769,
Upon the conclusion of his studies there, he received the follow-
ing certificate from Dr, William Shippen of Philadelphia :
" This may certify that Mr. William Aspinwall has attended
with uncommon diligence, my course of lectures on anatomy and
surgery, also my course of midwifery, which added to his close
attention to all the other medical lectures, and to the practice of
the Pennsylvania Hospital, has amply fitted him to practice
physic, surgery and midwifery with credit and reputation. I can
with pleasure add, that he promises fair, by his irreproachable
conduct, since his arrival in Philadelphia, to be in every other
respect, a useful and agreeable member of society.
Philadelphia, 27 May 1769."
Dr. Aspinwall commenced the practice of medicine at Brook-
line, and, continuing in practice there, became quite famous
as a physician. He was an active participant in the Revolu-
54 PETER ASPINWALL AND DESCENDANTS.
tionary War, and was in the battle of Lexington. He applied
for a commission in the army, but, by the advice of his friend,
Dr. Joseph Warren, he finally decided to serve in the Medical
Department. He received the appointment of Surgeon in Gen.
Heath's Brigade, and not long afterwards that of Deputy Direc-
tor of the hospital at Jamaica Plains. His appointment as vSur-
geon of the hospital at Roxbury, by the Congress of the Colony
of Massachusetts, is signed by James Warren, President, and is
dated at Watertown, 28 June, 1T75. He was Surgeon of the
" American Hospital " in August of that year. In 1778, he was
with the army under Gen. Sullivan, in Rhode Island.
After the close of the war, he established, on his own premises,
a hospital for the treatment of small-pox, and was very successful.
His treatment was by inoculation with the virus of the real small-
pox. When the new method of vaccination was introduced, he
adopted it with much loss to himself, and in less than two years
took down his hospital.
Besides fulfilling the duties of his large practice. Dr. Aspin-
wall was active in public affairs, and held many public ofiices.
He was town treasurer from 1783 to 1790 ; warden in 1779 ;
surveyor in 1802 and 1811 ; representative in 1790, 1791, and
from 1795 to 1799; State Senator in 1800, 1801 and 1802. He
and Col. Isaac S. Gardner were chosen a committee to arrange
the procession to march and assemble at the meeting house on
February 22, 1800, " to testify their respect for the memory of
the late General George Washington." October <>, 1797, he sub-
scribed the sum of $3,000 as a fund for the support of the County
Academy.
In early life, he lost the sight of one eye, and in his old age
became totally blind. When a young man, in 1767, he wrote a
sketch of the early generations of the Aspinwall family, extracts
from which have been quoted in this work.
Dr. Aspinwall married, June 26, 1776, Susanna Gardner.
She was born February 28, 1754; died June 2, 1814. They first
went to housekeeping in the house built by his father for his
brother vSamuel. They lived there eleven years, and all of their
children were born there except Susanna and Augustus, who
were born in the old homestead. Dr. Aspinwall then built a

house on Gardner Road, Aspinwall Hill, and dwelt there the
remainder of his life.
Dr. Aspinwall's portrait was painted by the celebrated artist,
Gilbert Stuart, upon the order of his son-in-law, Lewis Tappan,
and it is related that this portrait bore such a striking resem-
blance to George Washington, that at the time of the anti-slavery
riots in New York City, when the house of Lewis Tappan in
Rose Street, was mobbed (he being a noted abolitionist), and its
furniture burned in the street, this picture remained untouched,
the rioters believing it to be a portrait of Washington.

Nathaniel", son of Peter' (Nathanie?, Peter') and Rebecca
(Storrs) Aspinwall, was born in Mansfield, Ct., November 18,
1740; died in New Haven, Ct., in the year 1800. He early
engaged in silk culture in Connecticut, and is said to have been
instrumental in establishing that industry in said state. In a
memorial history of Hartford County, Ct., it is stated that,
"President Styles of Yale College and Nathaniel Aspinwall of
Mansfield are credited with having established the silk industry.
Mr. Aspinwall brought from Long Island the white mulberry to
the town of Mansfield. In 1789, Pres. Styles wore at Com-
mencement a gown made of Connecticut silk." It is said that
Nathaniel Aspinwall had a nursery of mulberry trees on Long
Island, and began about 1760 to introduce silk culture into
Windham County and other localities in Connecticut. He planted
orchards of the trees at New Haven and other places, and laid
the foundation in Mansfield of an industry that lasted for
seventy-five years, and paved the way for the present silk manu-
facture in this country.
He settled at New Haven, date unknown, and died there in
1800. His estate was inventoried there October 4, 1800. He
married, perhaps, at Mansfield, date unknown, Polly (prob-
ably Fenton). After his death, she married Clark Sibley, and
died between February 10 and July 18, 1803, as shown by the
Probate Records at New Haven.

99.
Zalmon*, son of Peter' (Natlianier, Peter') and Rebecca
(Storrs) Aspinwall, was born at Mansfield, Ct., February 15,
1742, and died at Lebanon, N, H., August 11, 1821. Soon after
attaining- his majority, he removed to Lebanon, N. H., and was
one of the first settlers of that town. He cleared a farm
there, which he cultivated and improved, and also carried
on the saddlery and harness-making business. In the
early days when the " Aspinwall Hill," in Lebanon, was
the capital of the town, the "Freemen's Meetings" were
occasionally held at his dwelling, and he was often elected
moderator. He was a man running over with frolic and
fun, often playing tricks upon his neighbors, and that disposition
lasted during his old age. He could imitate the cry of nearly
all the wild animals of the forest, and many amusing anecdotes
are related of the tricks played by him with this gift. He was
also a trapper, and did quite a business in that line. At one
time, he had a line of traps from Lebanon through Enfield,
Hanover and Lyme, which he often visited through the fur
season, and caught a great many of the American sable. He
served, during the Revolutionary War, in Col. Jonathan Chase's
New Hampshire Regiment. He married, April 17, 1782, Han-
nah Conant. She was born January 2, 1756; died March 13, 1823.

101.
Eleazar', son of Peter' (Nathaniel', Peter') and Rebecca
(Storrs) Aspinwall, was born in Mansfield, Ct., February 10,
1745. There is no further account of him on the Mansfield, Ct.,
records, but he was living April 30, 1781, the date of his father's
will. Some time during the Revolutionary War, he probably
removed to the State of New York, for he served for a time dur-
ing that war in Col. Van Rensselaer's Regiment of New York
troops. No record of his marriage, nor any further trace of
him has been found, but an Abel Aspinwall, who was unques-
tionably his son, was living at Lisle, Broome County, N. Y., in
1810, so it is probable that Eleazar Aspinwall located in that
part of the State. No trace of any other child than Abel has
been discovered.

1788, he was of the town of Waterbury, at which time he pur-
chased a half acre of land, with the buildings thereon, situated
in the township of Waterbury, at a place called Quassapague.
In 1790, he was one of the signers for a society, afterwards called
Middlebury, Ct. In June, 1800, he was of Washington, Conn.,
as appears from the New Haven court deeds. He appears to
have been engaged in the industry of planting the mulberry
tree for the silk culture, as was his elder brother Nathaniel, and
PETER ASPINWALL AND DESCENDANTS. 61
it is probable that he had previously lived at New Haven. He
subsequently removed to Chatham, Columbia Co., N. Y.,
where administration was granted on his estate, September 30,

pany of Capt. Benjamin Clark, in Col. Obadiah Johnson's regi-

married, second, at New Haven, Ct.,May27, 1784, Mrs. Wealthy
Thompson, a widow. She died, probably, in 1821, as the inven-
tory of her estate was filed June 28, 1821. Her will was dated
February 20, 1811. In the settlement of her estate, she is de-
scribed as of Mansfield, Ct., and Thompson, Sullivan Co., N. Y.

1747; died in Canterbury, Ct., February 12, 1769. She married
a Capt. Boswell of Canterbury. No record of any children has

William', son of Nathaniel' (Nathanie?, Peter') and Mary
(Derby) Aspinwall, was born in Woodstock, Ct., June 10, 1749;
died in Canterbury, Ct., August 24, 1816. When a young man,
he was employed to manage a large plantation on Long Island,
and while there he married, January 15, 1774, Mary Shaw. She
was of a loyalist family, which, during the Revolutionary War,
took refuge in Nova Scotia. Soon after his marriage, he went
to Saratoga County, N. Y., to take charge of the large tract of
land there belonging to his father. In 1775, while living there,
a horseman came riding up one day at full speed and told him
that hostile Indians from Canada were within two hours reach of
them, and that they must fly for their lives. Loading what
household goods he could into his wagon, he drove with his wife
and infant son to the nearest settlement, twelve miles away.
The following day, with some men from this settlement, he went
back to his place and found it in ashes. He soon afterwards
returned to his father's in Canterbury, and settled on the old
home place, and there remained the rest of his life. His widow
died January 15, 1818, aged 69 years.

PETER ASPINWALL AND DESCENDANTS. 67
War, he bought land in Stillwater, then in Saratoga County,
N. Y., but apparently did not remove there at that time, for, in
1775, he was in the military service from Norfolk, Conn., for
five days, at the time of the Lexington Alarm, and, on March 15,
1777, he enlisted in the company of Capt. Watson, 7 " Connecti-
cut Line, and served until March 15, 1780. In 1787, he is
described on the land records at Norfolk, Ct., as of Stillwater,
and it is presumed that he removed there after the close of
the Revolutionary War. No further trace of him has been
found, nor of any descendants, and it is believed, therefore, that
he had no other children than those described below, whose
deaths are given in the Norfolk, Ct., records.

Aaron", son of Aaron' (Eleazar^ Peter') and Sarah (Collins)
Aspinwall, was born in Farmington, Ct., October 6, 1743. He
removed to Norfolk, Ct., with his parents, in 1758, and, on
March 10, 1777, he enlisted for three years in Capt. Watson's
Company of the 7" Connecticut Line, his brother Caleb being
in the same company. He was honorably discharged March 10,
1780. After the close of the Revolutionary War, he removed to
Stillwater, then in Saratoga Co., N. Y., where he lived for a
number of years, but subsequently removed to Genoa, Cayuga
Co., N. Y., where he died May 1, 1834. He married prior to
his removal from Norfolk, Ct., but the name of his wife has not
been ascertained, nor the date of his marriage.
As to his children, the sons given below are the only ones of
whom any account has been found, although he certainly had at
least one other child. This is proved by the fact that, in his
declaration for a pension, executed July 6, 1820, he states that
his family then consisted of his wife, aged 72 years, and a grand-
son, 10 years old, named Aaron. This grandson was not the
child of either of the sons named below, and must have been the
child of another son or daughter, who had, no doubt, died leav-
ing this child to the care of his grandparents. A tradition in this
family is that there were also sons Matthew and Caleb, but, if
so, no descendant has been found of either. The elder son,
John, was born at Norfolk, Ct.

PETER ASPINWALL AND DESCENDANTS. 119
335.
Samuel Aspinwall', son of Mary* (Samuer, Thomas', Sam-
ueP, Peter') Aspinwall and Joseph Goddard,was born in Brookline,
Mass.. October 4, 1796; married, in England, September 4, 1824,
Julia Backope. She was born February 11, ISOO; died January
8, 1875. He died in Birmingham, Eng., July 24, 1886.
The following article, published shortly after his death, will
be of interest :
" Samuel Aspinwall Goddard, who recently died at his home
at Little Aston, near Birminghain, Eng., deserves to be always
remembered by his native country, the United States, for it was
once his fortune to prove that an American living abroad may be
as good a patriot as one at home, and may do the most impor-
tant patriotic service. Mr. Goddard was born at Brookline in
this State (Massachusetts), in 1796, with the blood of two noted
New England families uniting in his veins. He was engaged in
the iron trade and transferred his home and business to Birming-
ham, Eng., years before the rebellion. When that broke
out, Mr. Goddard began the task of correcting the ignorant and
injurious attitude of the British toward our country, by
thoroughly setting before them the facts of the situation, the
character of our institutions, and the proof that the North was
obeying the highest principles, and the truest patriotism in put-
ting down the rebellion. He did this through communications
in the Birmingham Daily Post concerning every issue and event
of the war, which was continued through the whole period, making
a body of writing as great as if he had been the editor of a leading
daily at home, and of much more importance, since it was put
forth where it was most needed. The Birmingham Post, by his
work, produced a great effect in enlightening the British people,
and the New York Chamber of Commerce did well to pass a
grateful resolution to him. Mr. Goddard was an abolitionist, a
scholar in political economy and a man of letters. He retained
his bodily and mental vigor until shortly before his death."

148 PETER ASPINWALL AND DESCENDANTS.
age of seven years. He went from Saratoga County to Chautau-
qua Co., N. Y., and while living there attended school for one
term only. Aside from this, his education was gained by study
around the fire-place at night, or at such hours as could be spared
from his work during the day. In this manner he mastered the ele-
mentary studies of that early period, and in subsequent years was
a man well informed upon all the subjects of his time. In 1846,
he removed to Freeport, Stephenson Co., 111., his earthly pos-
sessions at that time consisting of his wife, three children, a span
of horses and wagon, and six hundred dollars in money. He
was a farmer, and at the time of his death, March 30, 1889, at
the age of nearly 82 years, he was among the wealthy men of
his community. On March 1, 1835, he married Lucy, daughter
of Ebenezer H. and Rhoda (Sumner) Shumway. She was born
May 28, 1813, and died December 29, 1883. Both of them united
early with the Baptist Church, with which they remained con-
nected all their lives.
