THE  following  pages  have  grown  out  of  the  author's  search 
for  the  ancestry  of  his  great  grandfather,  Thomas  Bar- 
civAY^  of  St.  Mary's  County,  Maryland.  The  interesting 
matter  that  came  to  his  notice  during  the  course  of  that  search 
invited  frequent  digressions  from  his  own  line,  until  his  notes 
were  charged  with  a  variety  of  material  which  he  felt  should  be 
preserved  in  some  permanent  form.  He  accordingly  determined 
to  print  privately  and  at  his  own  expense  what  appears  in  the 
following  pages;  but  so  many  requests  have  come  to  him  for 
copies  of  the  book  that  he  has  recently  decided  to  place  it  upon 
the  market  at  somewhat  less  than  cost,  and  thus  make  it  readily 
accessible  to  all  who  care  for  it. 

He  is  conscious  that  in  a  work  of  this  kind,  to  which  he  has 
been  able  to  give  only  his  leisure  hours,  errors  are  bound  to  creep 
in, — particularly  in  tables  of  descent  where  it  is  sought  to  make 
a  record  of  precise  dates  of  birth,  death  and  marriage;  and  he 
earnestly  invites  the  correction  of  errors  and  the  supplying  of 
omitted  names  and  dates. 

He  wishes,  too,  to  express  his  thanks  to  the  many  who  have 
aided  him  with  the  material  used,  and  in  particular  to  express  his 
appreciation  of  the  courtesy  shown  him  by  Mr.  Robe;rt  H. 
KeIvBY^  the  librarian  of  the  New  York  Historical  Society,  by 
Mr.  Be;ali;,  the  Register  of  the  Friends  Records  in  Eustace

PART  I. 

A   Mistaken   Tradition. — Testimony    of   the    Records    of    East    New 

Jersey. 

A  TRADITION  has  been  seriously  entertained  by  many  of 
the  descendants  of  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay,  the  first  rector 
of  St.  Peter's  at  Albany,  that  they  are  of  Ury  stock. 
Their  ancestor,  the  Rev.  Thomas,  they  assert,  was  the  son  of 
John  Barclay  of  Ury  who  settled  in  East  New  Jersey  m  1684, 
married  (according  to  the  tradition)  one  "Cornelia  Van  Schaick," 
and  died  there  in  1731, — the  issue  of  such  union  being  the  same 
Thomas  Barclay  who  in  1708  appeared  as  a  catechist  among  the 
Indians  on  the  upper  Hudson,  and  subsequently  became  more 
widely  known  as  the  first  rector  of  St.  Peter's  at  Albany. 

The  public  and  private  records,  the  old  letters  and  the  docu- 
ments which  have  come  to  the  notice  of  the  writer  in  tracing  his 
own  line  of  descent,  have  borne  such  convincing  testimony  to  the 
inaccuracy  of  the  tradition  that  he  has  felt  impelled  to  lay  before 
those  who  may  be  interested  the  facts  which  in  his  judgment 
wholly  disprove  the  claim  that  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay  of  St.  Peter's 
was  of  the  Ury  family. 

John  Barclay,  who  settled  in  East  New  Jersey  in  1684,  was 
the  second  son  of  Col.  David  Barclay  of  Ury.  The  father  had 
served  with  distinction  in  the  Thirty  Years  War  as  a  follower  of 
Gustavus  Adolphus,  and  had  borne  arms  in  the  civil  wars  at 
home.  On  December  24th,  1647,  he  married  Lady. Katharine 
Gordon,  known  as  the  "White  Rose  of  Scotland,"  and  about  a 
year  later  (in  1648)  purchased  from  William,  Earl  of  Mareschal, 
the  estate  of  Ury  in  the  County  of  Kincardine,  Scotland.  In 
1679,  under  charter  from  the  crown,  this  estate  and  some  neigh- 
boring estates  which  were  also  owned  by  Col.  David,  were  united 
into  the  "Barony  of  Ury."  Until  some  time  preceding  the  pur- 
chase of  Ury  and  for  a  period  of  more  than  five  hundred  years, 
the  family  had  owned  and  been  identified  with  the  estate  of 
Mathers ;  but  through  financial  stress  Col.  David  Barclay's  father 
had  been  forced  to  part  with  this  ancient  holding,  and  the  family 


A  Mistaken  Tradition. 


later  became  more  widely  known  as  the  "Barclays  of  Ury,"  al- 
though sometimes  designated  as  "of  Mathers  and  Ury." 

In  1666  Col.  David  joined  the  Society  of  Friends  and  as  a 
consequence  was  subjected  to  persecution,  imprisonment  and 
frequent  indignities.  He  is  described  "as  proper  tall  a  person- 
"  age  of  a  man  as  could  be  seen  among  thousands.  His  hair 
"  white  as  the  flax,  but  quite  bald  upon  the  top  of  his  head,  which 
"  obliged  him  to  wear  commonly  a  black  satin  cap  under  his  hat." 
He  died  in  1686  and  was  buried  near  Ury  on  the  12th  of  Oc- 
tober of  that  year.^ 

Three  sons  and  two  daughters  were  born  to  Col.  David 
Barclay,  and  Lady  Katharine  Gordon,  his  wife : 

Robert,  born  1648,  the  "Apologist;" 

Lucy,  died  1686,  unmarried ; 

Jean,  married  Sir  Ewen  Cameron,  of  Lochiel ; 

John,  born  1659,  who  migrated  to  East  New  Jersey;  and 

David,  his  youngest  son,  who  died  at  sea,  unmarried. 

The  migration  of  John  Barclay  to  America  was  doubtless 
due,  in  part  at  any  rate,  to  the  life  appointment  of  his  older 
brother,  Robert,  as  governor  of  the  then  proprietary  province  of 
East  New  Jersey.  Robert  did  not  come  out  to  America,  nor  did 
John  come  out  as  his  deputy ;  but,  in  the  earlier  days  of  his  resi- 
dence in  the  province,  John  Barclay  was  prominent  in  its  affairs 
and  seems,  so  long  as  he  remained  an  orthodox  Quaker,  to  have 
stood  in  close  relations  with  his  family  in  Scotland.  With  the 
change  of  faith,  however,  which  we  read  of  within  the  few  years 
following  his  settlement  at  Perth  Amboy,  an  estrangement  from 
his  family  followed  (for  religious  tolerance  was  but  little  known 
in  those  days,  and  as  little  among  the  Quakers  as.  among  others), 
and  John  Barclay  seems  soon  to  have  lost  that  influence  and 
prestige  which  his  birth  and  family  connections  would  naturally 
have  secured  for  him  and  for  his  descendants. 

The  part  he  played  in  the  affairs  of  the  province  may  per- 
haps be  the  better  appreciated  if  the  relation  of  the  province  to 
the  mother  country  be  made  plain  at  the  outset. 

It  was  on  August  27,  1664,  that  the  English  captured  New 
Amsterdam  from  the  Dutch ;  but  even  prior  to  such  capture,  and

Records  of  East  New  Jersey. 


in  confident  anticipation  thereof,  King  Charles  II  had  granted 
the  entire  province  to  his  brother  James,  Duke  of  York,  and  he 
in  turn  had  divided  the  territory  so  granted  and  had  conveyed  to 
Lord  John  Berkeley  and  to  Sir  George  Carteret  all  that  portion 
of  the  province  which  was  bounded  on  the  east  by  the  Hudson 
River,  on  the  west  by  the  Delaware  River,  and  on  the  north  by  a 
line  drawn  from  river  to  river  at  about  the  41st  parallel  of  lati- 
tude. Both  Lord  John  Berkeley  (who  was  a  brother  of  Sir 
William  Berkeley,  more  widely  known  as  the  Governor  of  Vir- 
ginia from  1660  to  1677),  and  Sir  George  Carteret  had  been  dis- 
tinguished and  steadfast  loyalists  during  the  civil  wars;  and  out 
of  compliment  to  Carteret,  who  as  Governor  of  the  little  island 
of  Jersey  in  the  British  Channel  had  been  the  last  commander 
during  such  wars  to  lower  the  royal  flag,  the  tract  so  granted 
was  named  Nezu  Jersey. 

In  the  year  following  the  capture  of  New  Amsterdam,  Philip 
Carteret,  a  kinsman  of  Sir  George,  was  granted  a  governor's 
commission  and  sailed  for  the  province  accompanied  by  a  number 
of  colonists.  He  landed  at  the  spot  soon  afterwards  called  Bliza- 
hethtozvn,  in  honor  of  Lady  Carteret,  and  there  he  established  the 
seat  of  government. 

The  Dutch  recaptured  the  province  in  1673 ;  but  upon  the 
conclusion  of  peace  on  February  9th,  1674,  the  English  title  to 
the  soil  was  finally  recognized  and  New  Jersey  reverted  to  its 
English  proprietors.  Lord  John  Berkeley,  however,  retained  his 
share  of  the  province  for  scarcely  thirty  days  after  the  conclusion 
of  peace.  On  March  i8th,  1674,  he  sold  his  entire  undivided 
interest  in  the  province  for  the  sum  of  £  1,000,  to  one  John  Fen- 
wick,  a  Quaker,  who  acquired  such  interest  for  himself  and  for 
another  Quaker,  named  Edward  Billings.  Two  years  later,  in 
July,  1676,  Carteret  and  Fenwick  agreed  upon  a  formal  partition 
of  their  holding,  and  an  imaginary  line  was  thereupon  drawn  from 
the  shore  of  the  ocean  at  Little  Egg  Harbor  to  the  northwestern 
corner  of  the  province.  The  portion  lying  to  the  northerly  and 
easterly  of  this  line,  thereafter  known  as  Bast  Nezv  Jersey,  be- 
came the  separate  property  of  Carteret,  while  the  remaining  por- 
tion, subsequently  known  as  West  New  Jersey,  was  divided  be- 
tween its  Quaker  proprietors.  Our  interest  in  this  sketch  is 
centred  in  the  first-mentioned  portion. 


A  Mistaken  Tradition. 


Philip  Carteret,  on  behalf  of  his  kinsman,  Sir  George,  re- 
sumed the  administration  of  the  government  of  East  New  Jersey, 
and  such  tract  being  regarded  as  a  separate  province,  was  divided 
into  four  counties,  Bergen,  Essex,  Middlesex  and  Monmouth. 
Somerset  County  was  the  next  created,— in  1688, 

Sir  George  Carteret  lived  but  a  few  years  after  the  establish- 
ment of  East  New  Jersey,  and  upon  his  death  left  the  entire 
province  to  the  trustees  of  his  estate.  They  offered  it  for  sale, 
and  in  1682  it  was  purchased  by  a  company  of  twelve  Quakers, 
of  whom  William  Penn  is  now  the  most  widely  known.  These 
twelve  purchasers  associated  with  themselves  twelve  others,  most 
of  whom,  but  not  all,  were  both  Scotchmen  and  Quakers,  and 
the  twenty-four  proprietors,  for  further  assurance,  obtained  from 
the  Duke  of  York  on  the  13th  of  March,  1683,  ^  ^^^w  patent  of 
the  province,  issued  directly  to  themselves.  The  early  history  of 
the  province  was  marked  with  no  little  friction  between  those  who 
administered  its  affairs  on  behalf  of  the  proprietors  and  those  who 
sought  to  do  so  on  behalf  of  the  Crown;  and  finally  and  in  1702 
the  government  of  the  province  was  duly  ceded  by  the  pro- 
prietors to  the  Crown. 

Among  the  twenty-four  proprietors  to  whom  the  patent  of 
March  13th,  1683,  was  issued  as  above  mentioned,  was  Robert 
Barclay,  the  eldest  son  of  Col.  David  Barclay  and  Lady  Kath- 
arine Gordon.  It  is  he  who  has  added  the  greatest  lustre  to  the 
Barclay  name,  through  his  famous  "Apology  for  the  True  Chris- 
tian Divinity"  which  he  wrote,  and  in  1675,  when  but  twenty- 
seven  years  of  age,  presented  to  King  Charles  II.  Although 
chosen  by  the  proprietors  to  be  governor  of  the  province  for  life, 
Robert  Barclay  never  came  to  America,  but  entrusted  the  actual 
administration  of  its  affairs  to  one  Gawen  Laurie,  whom  he  ap- 
pointed to  the  office  of  deputy  governor.  The  younger  brothers, 
however,  John  and  David,  both  came  to  the  province,  unmarried. 
David  died  at  sea  on  his  second  voyage  out,  while  John,  very 
shortly  after  his  arrival,  settled  in  Perth  Amboy,  where  he  died 
in  1731. 

What  has  thus  far  been  written  is  conceded  by  all.  It  is 
here  that  the  tradition  referred  to,  on  the  one  hand,  and  the  pub- 
lic and  private  records  to  be  cited  below,  on  the  other  hand,  bear 
widely  divergent  testimony.     The  tradition  is  best  told,  perhaps, 


Records  of  East  New  Jersey. 


in  the  words  of  Mr.  George  h.  Rives,  in  his  work  entitled  "Cor- 
respondence of  Thomas  Barclay"  (New  York:  Harper  & 
Brothers,  1894),  wherein  he  has  edited  sundry  letters  of  the  first 
British  Consul  General  in  New  York,  who  was  a  grandson  of 
Rev,  Thomas  Barclay  of  Albany. 

"About  1685,"  writes  Mr.  Rives,  without,  however,  giving 
any  authority  for  the  selection  of  such  year,  "he  (John  Barclay) 
"  married  a  lady  whose  name  alone  is  sufficient  evidence  of  her 
"  descent.  She  was  Cornelia  Van  Schaick"  (citing  Hoi^GATii's 
American  Ge;nkalogie;s,  published  1851,  where  not  even  the  sug- 
gestion of  an  authority  for  such  alleged  marriage  is  given),  "a 
"  member,  it  would  seem,  of  the  extensive  Van  Schaick  family  of 
"  Albany."  Mr.  Rives  then  refers  to  John  Barclay's  conversion 
to  the  Church  of  England  as  having  occurred  prior  to  1702,  and 
states  that  an  English  clergyman.  Rev.  Thorowgood  Moore,  had 
officiated  in  Perth  Amboy  sometime  between  1702  and  1707*  and 
that,  prior  to  his  appearance  in  Perth  Amboy,  Mr.  Moore  had 
been  a  missionary  at  Albany  and  among  the  Indians. 

"We  may  well  suppose,"  Mr.  Rives  thereupon  argues,  "that 
"he  (Moore)  did  not  fail  when  he  found  a  likely  young  man 
"  with  a  vocation  for  the  ministry,  to  urge  the  noble  work  that 
"  might  be  done  on  the  wild  frontier  about  the  head  waters  of 
"  the  Hudson  River.  Whether  Mr.  Moore  did  indeed  find  such 
"  a  young  man  at  Perth  Amboy,  and  whether  he  did  influence  the 
"  course  of  his  career,  must  remain  a  conjecture ;  but  certain  it  is," 
Mr.  Rives  asseverates,  "that  Thomas  Barclay,  a  son  of  John  Bar- 
"  clay,  went  early  in  the  eighteenth  century  to  England,  took 
"  orders,  and  was  in  due  time  sent,  in  his  turn,  by  the  Society  as 
"  Missionary  at  Albany  and  among  the  Indians.  He  seems  to 
"have  reached  Albany  in  1707  or  1708." 

Mr.  Rives  next  seems  to  think  that  the  fact  that  the  church 
at  Albany  bore  the  same  name  as  the  church  at  Perth  Amboy, 
"St.  Peters,"  is  possessed  of  some  significance  in  view  of  Rev. 
Thomas  Barclay  having  been  the  first  rector  of  the  Albany  parish. 
But  Mr.  Rives  has  evidently  overlooked  the  fact  that  the  patent 
was  issued  for  St.  Peter's  at  Albany  in  17 14,  while  St.  Peter's  at 
Perth  Amboy  was  not  chartered  until  1718;  and  the  name  of  the 
former  church,  consequently,  could  hardly  have  been  selected  out 
of  any  sentimental  regard  on  the  part  of  its  rector  for  the  Perth 


A  Mistaken  Tradition. 


Amboy  parish,  which  was  not  even  called  into  being  until  four 
years  after  the  establishment  of  the  Albany  Church. 

Quite  apart  from  what  is  shown  by  the  records,  referred  to 
below,  the  probabilities  are  all  against  the  alleged  marriage  be- 
tween John  Barclay  and  Cornelia  Van  Schaick.  The  Van 
Schaicks  of  colonial  days  were  well  known.  Two  separate  fami- 
lies of  that  name  were  early  settlers  on  the  upper  Hudson,  of  one 
of  which  Goosen  Gerritse  Van  Schaick  was  the  head,  and  of  the 
other,  Claes  Van  Schaick.^  The  line  of  descent  from  each  of 
these  heads  is  well  known,  and  is  available  to  all  who  would  con- 
sult it ;  yet  no  such  marriage  can  be  found  in  the  records  of  either 
line.  It  is  true  that  a  Cornelia  Van  Schaick,  born  1670,  is  men- 
tioned in  those  records ;  but  her  marriage  also  is  chronicled  there 
as  occurring  in  1690  to  Johannes  Pluvier.^  The  only  other  Cor- 
nelia Van  Schaick  appearing  in  either  line  was  a  daughter  of 
Claes  Van  Schaick;  and  she  was  not  born  until  1710. 

It  is  hardly  probable  that  if,  as  has  been  claimed,  John  Bar- 
clay ever  married  into  this  family,  all  knowledge  of  such  fact 
would  have  escaped  the  students  of  the  Van  Schaick  genealogy, 
when  we  consider  not  only  the  prominence  of  the  family  from 
which  John  Barclay  came,  but  also  the  prominence  of  Rev. 
Thomas  Barclay  (who  by  the  same  tradition  is  claimed  to  have 
been  his  son),  and  the  subsequent  social  distinction  of  many  of 
Rev.  Thomas  Barclay's  descendants. 

Nor  is  it  likely  that  such  a  marriage  would  have  occurred  un- 
noticed at  a  time  when  the  feeling  between  those  of  differing  re-" 
ligious  views  was  as  bitter  as  we  know  it  to  have  been  toward  the 
close  of  the  17th  century.  The  Van  Schaicks  were  closely  iden- 
tified with  the  Dutch  Church  of  the  day,  and  John  Barclay  up  to 
1692,  certainly,  was  a  prominent  and  earnest  Quaker.  If  any 
such  marriage  occurred,  of  which  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay  was  (as 
is  claimed)  the  issue,  it  could  hardly  have  occurred  later  than 
1687;  for  in  1708  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay  had  taken  orders  in  the 
established  church  and  was  engaged  in  his  mission  at  Albany, 
He  must  certainly  have  been  at  least  twenty-one  5^ears  of  age 
when  ordained ;  and  even  were  he  ordained  at  once  upon  attaining

his  majority  and  during  the  very  year  in  which  he  came  out  to 
Albany,  his  birth  could  not  have  occurred  later  than  1687.  The 
supposed  marriage,  therefore,  between  John  Barclay  and  Cor- 
nelia Van  Schaick  must  have  occurred,  if  at  all,  in  or  prior  to  the 
year  1687. 

There  is  no  record  of  such  marriage  in  any  Dutch  Church  of 
which  the  marriage  records  have  been  preserved ;  and  neither 
mention  of  marriage  nor  reference  to  any  wife  or  son  of  John 
Barclay  can  be  found  in  the  records  of  the  Quaker  meeting  which 
was  inaugurated  at  Amboy  on  August  3rd,  1686.  The  original 
records  of  that  meeting  are  preserved  in  Plainfield,  New  Jersey, 
the  meeting  having  moved  in  1689  from  Amboy  to  Woodbridge, 
and  later  to  Railway  and  thence  to  Plainfield.  Such  records  show 
that  from  1686  to  1689  (when  the  records  were  discontinued  until 
1704),  John  Barclay  was  an  active  member  of  the  meeting.  The 
marriages  of  other  Friends  which  occurred  during  those  years 
were  noted,  as  well  as  t'le  birth  of  children  to  sundry  members 
of  the  meeting ;  but  no  mention  is  made  of  John  Barclay  having 
married,  or  of  any  son  having  been  born  to  him,  nor  is  there  any 
fact  stated  from  which  it  could  properly  be  inferred  that  he  was 
a  married  man  during  any  portion  of  those  three  years.  In  Ap- 
pendix A,  hereunto  annexed,  will  be  found  sundry  extracts  from 
the  records  of  the  Amboy  Monthly  Meeting. 

At  some  time  during  the  fifteen  years  which  intervened  be- 
tween 1689  and  1704,  when,  as  has  been  stated,  the  keeping  of  the 
records  of  this  meeting  was  discontinued,  John  Barclay  seems  to 
have  left  the  Society  of  Friends  and  gone  over  to  the  Church 
of  England.  He  was  undoubtedly  influenced  to  this  course  by 
George  Keith,  by  whom,  as  we  shall  see  below,  he  had  been  ap- 
pointed deputy  surveyor  of  the  province  in  the  year  1688.  Nor 
is  it  at  all  unlikely  that  such  departure  from  the  testimonies  of  his 
father  and  brother  served  in  some  measure  to  estrange  him  from 
his  family;  for  we  find  that  in  1701  his  nephew,  Robert  Barclay, 
then  the  head  of  the  family  at  Ury,  appointed  others  in  the 
province  to  be  his  attorneys-in-fact,  and  that  John  Barclay  from 
that  time  forward  does  not  seem  to  have  acted  on  behalf  of  any 
of  his  Scottish  kinsmen. 

George  Keith  was  and  for  many  years  had  been  a  most  ardent 
preacher  among  the  Quakers ;  but  diflfering  with  many  of  the

leaders,  whom  he  publicly  charged  with  deism,  he  gradually  be- 
came the  head  of  a  sect  or  faction,  and  in  1692  was  formally  dis- 
owned by  the  main  body  of  Friends.  In  1694  he  went  to  England 
and  laid  his  case  before  the  London  Yearly  Meeting,  as  a  sort  of 
an  appeal  from  Philadelphia.  It  is  said  that  this  is  the  only  in- 
stance of  such  an  appeal  having  been  taken.  The  London  Meet- 
ing approved  the  disownment,^  and  shortly  thereafter  Keith  took 
orders  in  the  Established  Church.^ 

John  Barclay  was  undoubtedly  a  member  of  the  Keithian 
party;  for  a  careful  search  of  the  records  of  the  Woodbridge 
Monthly  Meeting  from  1704  (when  the  keeping  of  records  was 
resumed)  until  long  subsequently  to  the  year  of  his  death,  1731, 
fails  to  disclose  the  mention  of  his  name.  Nor  in  the  register  of 
the  births  of  the  children  of  Friends,  which  seems  to  have  been 
most  carefully  kept  by  this  meeting  from  1705  down,  was  there 
a  single  record  of  a  Barclay  born ;  nor  in  the  register  similarly 
kept  of  the  decease  of  Friends,  did  the  name  Barclay  occur  until 
as  late  as  1862. 

It  is  possible  and  even  probable  that  those  members  of  the 
Amboy- Woodbridge  Meeting  who  followed  Keith  from  1689  to 
1694,  held  a  monthly  meeting  of  their  own  arid  kept  their  sepa- 
rate records  of  marriages,  births  and  deaths.  In  an  undated  letter 
to  the  Society  for  the  Propagation  of  the  Gospel  (written  prob- 
ably in  England  between  1694  and  1702)  Keith  stated  that  those 
of  the  Quakers  in  America  who  had  joined  him  held  their  sepa- 
rate meetings,  and  that  in  1694  when  he  sailed  for  England  he 
left  fourteen  or  fifteen  different  meetings  of  his  adherents  scat- 
tered through  East  and  West  Jersey  and  Pennsylvania.^  One 
writer  states  that  on  the  present  site  of  the  old  Topanemus  bury- 
ing ground  (near  Marlboro,  New  Jersey),  there  stood  a  Scotch 
and  English  Quaker  Meeting  House,  which,  through  the  labors  of 
George  Keith,  later  became  the  place  of  worship  of  the  congrega- 
tion now  known  as  St.  Peter's  Protestant  Episcopal  Church  of

Records  of  East  New  Jersey. 


Freehold,  N.  J.  i'  and  it  is  stated  that  John  Barclay  was  one  of 
those  interested  and  active  in  its  erection.  The  rector  of  St. 
Peter's  in  1897  informed  the  writer  that  no  parish  records  were 
extant,  antedating  1824,  although  the  parish  had  been  chartered 
as  a  part  of  the  Colonial  Anglican  Church  in  173 1.  If  such  a 
meeting  were  in  fact  held  there,  it  yet  remains  for  someone  to 
locate  the  records  of  such  meeting,  if  they  still  be  extant,  and 
to  give  them  to  the  world.  The  most  diligent  inquiry  on  the  part 
of  the  writer  has  failed  to  discover  them. 

With  the  conversion  of  their  leader  to  the  Church  of  Eng- 
land, the  adherents  of  Keith  soon  lost  their  identity  as  a  separate 
sect ;  and  many  of  those  who  had  been  identified  with  him  in  the 
controversy,  followed  him  into  the  Established  Church.  Among 
such,  in  all  probability,  was  John  Barclay. 

In  April,  1702,  Keith  came  back  to  America  on  a  mission 
tour  for  the  church  in  which  he  had  been  ordained,  and  remained 
here  until  August,  1704.  He  made  many  converts  and  founded 
numerous  societies  wdiich  subsequently  developed  into  church 
organizations. 

It  is  believed  that  most  of  the  meetings  of  the  so-called 
"Christian  Quakers,"  which  he  had  organized  between  his  dis- 
ownment  in  Philadelphia  in  *7'92  and  his  sailing  for  England  in 
34-94,  became,  when  not  wholly  disrupted  by  his  subsequent 
change  of  faith,  the  kernels  out  of  which  sundry  Baptist  churches 
subsequently  grew. 

Shortly  after  his  return  to  England  he  published,  in  1706,  a 
"Narrative"  of  his  "Travels,  Services  and  Successes,"  which  may 
be  found  in  several  of  the  larger  libraries.  It  has  been  repub- 
lished in  more  readable  form  in  the  "Collections  of  the  Protes- 
tant Episcopal  Historical  Society  for  the  year  185 1,"  above  cited. 
Only  two  extracts  from  his  Narrative,  however,  are  of  interest  in 
this  sketch.     They  are  as  follows : 

"1702:  Oct.  3,  Sunday.  I  preached  at  Amboy  in  East  Jersey;  the 
Auditory  was  small;  My  text  was  Tit.  2.  n,  12.  But  such  as  were  there 
were  well  affected ;  some  of  them,  of  my  former  Acquaintance,  and  others 
who  had  been  formerly  Quakers  iDut  were  come  over  to  the  Church,  par- 
ticularly Miles  Forster  and  John  Barclay  (Brother  to  Robert  Barclay  who 
published  the  Apology  for  the  Quakers)   the  Place  has  very  few  Inhabi-

tants.     We   were   several   Days   Kindly  entertained   by  Miles  Forster   at 
his  House  there." 


"April  26,  1704.  I  sailed  down  Maryland  Bay  to  Virginia,  in  Captain 
Puhnan's  Ship,  who  very  kindly  entertained  me  and  Mr.  John  Barclay, 
my  good  Friend  with  me;  He,  in  true  Love  and  Affection,  travelled  with 
me  from  his  dwelling  House  at  Aviboy  in  East  Jersey,  to  James  River  in 
Virginia  and  he  staid  with  me  until  he  saw  me  aboard  the  ship,  June  8, 
v;here  we  took  our  Farewell.'' 

The  above  are  the  only  records  that  have  come  to  the  writer's 
notice  that  bear  in  any  way  upon  John  Barclay's  change  of  faith. 
There  is  much  to  be  wished  for  touching  the  details  of  that 
change ;  but  records  will  doubtless  be  found  hereafter  which  may 
establish  more  clearly  his  religious  associations  until  the  issuing 
of  a  charter  to  St.  Peter's  Church  in  Amboy,  on  the  30th  of  July, 
1718.  In  and  by  that  charter,  John  Barclay  was  constituted 
junior  warden  f  and,  as  the  vestry  records  show,  he  was  elected 
and  re-elected  warden  at  the  meetings  of  March  31,  1719;  April 
18,  1720;  April  II,  1721 ;  and  March  27,  1722.  On  September 
23,  1728,  he  was  chosen  clerk  to  the  corporation  of  St.  Peter's, 
and  on  March  31,  1730,  was  elected  vestryman.  On  April  20, 
1731,  he  was  re-elected  vestryman;  but  no  further  mention  of  his 
name  is  found  in  the  vestry  minutes.  His  death  occurred  prior 
to  December  31st  of  that  year,  as  the  records  of  "The  General 
Proprietors  of  the  Eastern  Division  of  New  Jersey"  bear  witness.^ 

While  the  vestry  minutes  of  St.  Peter's  at  Amboy  are  pre- 
served, it  is  a  matter  of  much  regret  that  its  earlier  parish  records 
have  been  lost ;  and  yet  as  the  church  was  not  established  until 
1 718,  it  is  doubtful  whether,  even  were  these  parish  records  ex- 
tant, they  would  throw  much  if  any  light  on  the  questions  that 
interest  us  here,  namely,  the  marriage  and  issue  of  John  Barclay. 
The  records  at  Perth  Amboy  of  the  General  Proprietors  permit, 
as  it  seems  to  the  writer,  but  a  single  line  of  inferences,  to  wit, 
that  John  Barclay  was  not  married  until  somewhere  between  1696 
and  1699;  that  his  wife's  name  was  not  Cornelia,  but  Katharine; 


*See  original  records  of  the  \^estry  of  St.  Peter's  Church  at  Perth  Amboy. 

"Since  writing  the  above,  the  newspaper  notices  of  John  Barclay's  death,  referred 
to  below,  have  come  to  the  attention  of  the  writer.  From  them  it  appears  that  he  died 
probably  between  the  22nd  and  29th  of  April,  1731.  His  last  election  as  vestryman, 
therefore,  must  have  preceded  his  death  by  a  few  days  only. 


Records  of  East  New  Jersey.  n 


that  his  wife  died  either  in  1702  or  in  1703 ;  and  that  he  had  but 
one  son  whom  he  named  John,    clc  -^  K'^^*^  /^'t^j^.Ai,.^ 

These  inferences  as  to  the  year  of  his  marriage,  as  to  his  wife's 
Christian  name,  and  as  to  the  time  of  her  death,  are  drawn  from 
the  fact  that  in  all  the  deeds  which  are  on  record  as  having  been 
executed  by  John  Barclay  between  1686  and  1731, — and  there 
are  a  number  of  them, — no  wife  joins  with  him  in  a  single  trans- 
fer except  in  those  executed  between  September,  1696,  and 
March,  1704.  During  that  period  three  deeds  were  executed 
and  recorded,  the  first  on  December  23rd,  1699,  the  second  on 
September  12th,  1700,  and  the  third  on  December  17th,  1701  ; 
and  in  each  of  them  the  grantors  were  "John  Barclay,  of  Amboy, 
Gentleman,  and  Katharine,  his  wife."  In  a  deed  executed  by  him 
on  September  15th,  1696, -no  wife  had  joined;  and  a  deed  ex- 
ecuted on  March  14th,  1704,  was  also,  as  were  all  subsequent 
deeds,  executed  by  John  Barclay  alone.  While  the  presumption 
arising  from  these  facts  is  not  conclusive,  as  proving  that  some- 
where between  September  15th,  1696,  and  December  23rd,  1699, 
John  Barclay  married  a  woman  whose  Christian  name  was  Kath- 
arine, and  that  such  wife  died  somewhere  between  December  17th, 
1701  (the  date  of  the  last  deed  in  which  she  joined),  and  March 
14th,  1704  (the  date  of  the  next  deed  executed  by  him),  the 
presumption  is  nevertheless  warranted ;  and  until  stronger  proof 
to  the  contrary  is  adduced,  the  evidence  afforded  by  these  records 
should  be  taken  as  establishing  the  three  facts  stated. ^*^ 

The  inference  as  to  John  Barclay's  having  a  son  John,  is  sup- 
ported by  the  record  of  a  deed  executed  in  1724  to  John  Barclay, 
Jr.,  of  Freehold ;  by  the  direct  statement  contained  in  the  record 
of  administration  on  John  Barclay's  estate,  that  "John  Barclay,  his 
son  and  heir,"  requested  that  administration  should  be  granted 
to  William  Bradford ;  a.nd  by  the  fact  that  nearly  three  years 
after  the  grant  of  such  administration,  a  deed  was  recorded  of  a 
grant  of  land  to  "John  Barclay  of  the  County  of  Middlesex." 

The  following  is  a  brief  chronological  summary  of  the 
records  of  the  General  Proprietors  of  the  Eastern  Division  of 


^"Since  the  above  was  written,  the  records  of  St.  Mary's  Church  at  Burlington, 
West  New  Jersey,  have  been  examined  by  the  writer.  It  there  appears  that  on  Janu- 
ary 6,  1703,  "Catherine  Barclay"  was  buried  at  Amboy  by  Rev.  John  Talbot.  There  is 
no  reason  to  doubt  that  this  was  the  wife  of  John  Barclay.

New  Jersey,  in  which  John  Barclay  appears  either  as  grantor  or 
as  grantee,  with  a  reference  to  the  volumes  and  pages  where  such 
records  may  respectively  be  found.  There  is  also  noted  the 
record  of  administration  on  his  estate. 

1684  July  10.     Deed  from  Robert  Barclay  of  Ury,  to  John  Barclay  his 

brother,  of  500  acres  in  East  Jersey,  called  "Plainfield." 
(Referred  to  in  Liber  G.,  p.  97.) 

1685  Jan.  18.     Patent  to  John  Barclay  of  lands  in  Plainfield.     (Referred 

to  in  Liber  D.,  p.  12.) 

1686  Mch.    8.     Deed  from  David  Barclay  of  Ury,  and  Robert  his  eldest 

son,  to  John  Barclay  of  Amboy. 

Recites  that  David  Barclay,  Sr.,  gave  to  his  son  David, 
merchant,  certain  moneys  which  in  the  event  of  said 
David's  dying  without  issue  were  to  revert  to  his  older 
brother,  Robert ;  that  with  those  moneys,  David,  Jr., 
had  bought  one-twentieth  part  of  a  propriety  in  the 
Province  of  East  Jersey,  and  goods  of  the  value  of 
£150,  all  of  which  goods,  together  with  seven  or  eight 
servants,  he  took  in  August,  1685,  on  board  the  ship 
"America"  bound  from  Aberdeen  to  East  New  Jersey ; 
that  David  died  at  sea  during  the  voyage;  and  that  the 
land  and  property  thereupon  reverted  to  Robert,  and 
that  Robert  with  the  consent  of  his  father  David  and 
out  of  love  and  affection  for  his  brother  John, 
Conveys  all  said  property  to  John  Barclay  (described  as 
"planter  and  inhabitant  in  said  province"),  on  condition 
that  if  John  should  die  without  issue,  everything  should 
revert  to  Robert,  his  heirs,  executors,  &c. 

A  part  of  the  expressed  consideration  for  this  transfer  was 
the  extinguishment  by  John  of  a  balance  due  on  a  bond 
for  1350  Scotch  marks,  which  Robert  had  given  to  John 
in  1684.     {Liber  G.,  p.  108.)

16S6  Dec.  29.  Endorsed  on  deed  last  described  was  a  transfer  by  John 
Barclay  to  his  brother  Robert  Barclay  of  Ury,  of  all

John  Barclay  in  the  transfer.  {Liber  B.,  pp.  41  and 
42.)

And  finally  in  the  Records  of  the  Proprietors  at  Perth  Amboy 
is  found  the  following  deed,  executed  subsequently  to  John 
Barclay's  death : 

1/34  April  13-  Deed  from  Evans  Drummond  of  loo  acres  to  "John  Bar- 
clay of  the  County  of  Middlesex."     (Liber  E-2,  p.  189.) 

Although  a  statement  of  the  public  offices  held  by  John 
Barclay,  as  the  same  appear  from  the  records  of  the  General 
Proprietors,  cannot  bear  on  either  of  the  questions  of  his  marriage 
or  his  issue,  the  record  may  nevertheless  be  of  sufficient  interest 
to  warrant  the  taking  of  space  to  insert  the  same  here:

PART  II. 

A  Mistaken  Tradition,  Continued. — Testimony  of  the  Records  at 
Bury  Hill,  Surrey. 

ANOTHER  circumstance  that  tends  strongly  to  disprove 
the  tradition  of  a  descent  of  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay  from 
the  Barclays  of  Ury,  is  the  fact  that  in  the  early  part 
of  the  19th  century  a  search  was  made  by  the  family  at  Bury  Hill, 
Surrey,  for  the  then  living  descendants  of  John  Barclay  who 
migrated  to  East  New  Jersey  and  died  there  in  1731 ;  and  cor- 
respondence was  had  with  many  of  those  descendants  and  they 
were  recognized  as  such  and  their  names  were  recorded  in  the 
family  genealogy,  whereas  the  descendants  of  Rev.  Thomas, 
although  occupying  high  social  position  in  and  about  New  York, 
and  although  in  some  instances  personally  known  to  those  of 
the  family  at  Bury  Hill  who  were  conducting  the  search,  were 
not  recognized  as  descendants  of  John  of  E^ast  New  Jersey  and 
were  not  recorded  in  the  genealogical  plan  of  the  Barclays  of  Ury. 
The  search  was  made  and  the  correspondence  had  under  the 
following  circumstances : 

Robert  Barclay,  the  apologist, —  (the  elder  brother  of  John 
of  East  New  Jersey), — died  on  October  3rd,  1690,  and  the  estate 
of  Ury  thereupon  passed  to  his  eldest  son,  also  named  Robert, 
who  was  eighteen  years  of  age  at  the  time.  This  son,  Robert,  on 
October  9th,  1722,  executed  a  "disposition  and  deed  of  entail," — 
(recorded  in  the  register  of  tailzies  in  Scotland  on  February  6th, 
1723), — whereby  he  settled  the  entire  estate,  or  Barony,  of  Ury 
on  ( I )  Robert  Barclay,  his  eldest  son  and  the  heirs  male  lawfully 
to  be  procreated  of  his  body;  failing  which,  then  on  (2)  David 
Barclay,  the  entailer's  second  son,  and  the  heirs  male  of  his  body ; 
which  failing,  then  on  (3)  the  heirs  male  to  be  procreated  of  his 
own  (the  entailer's)  body;  which  failing,  then  on  (4)  David 
Barclay,  the  entailer's  brother,  and  the  heirs  male  of  his  body; 
which  failing,  then  on  (5)  John  Barclay,  the  entailer's  younger 
brother  (who  had  settled  in  Dublin)  and  the  heirs  male  of  his 
body ;  which  failing,  then  on  (6)  John  Barclay,  the  entailer's  uncle 


A  Mistaken  Tradition. 


(who  had  come  out  to  East  New  Jersey  in  1684),  and  the  heirs 
male  of  his  body;  which  faihng,  then  on  (7)  the  heirs  and  as- 
signees of  the  entailer,  generally. 

Under  such  deed  of  entail  the  estate  passed  from  Robert 
Barclay,  the  entailer,  to  his  son  Robert,  born  1699,  and  then,  and 
upon  the  death  of  such  Robert,  to  his  son  Robert,  born  1731. 
This  son  Robert  had  upon  his  (second)  marriage  to  Sarah  Ann 
Allardice,  taken  the  name  "Allardice"  as  a  part  of  his  own,  and 
the  surname  of  their  male  descendants,  at  any  rate,  thereupon 
became  "Barclay-Allardice."  When  Robert  Barclay-AUardice 
(born  173 1 )  died,  the  estate  passed  under  the  entail  to  his  oldest 
son,  born  1779,  who  bore  the  same  name;  and  it  was  during  his 
ownership  that  an  effort  was  made  to  alter  the  entail  by  securing 
to  him,  in  fee  simple  absolute,  a  release  therefrom  of  certain 
portions  of  the  estate  which  were  situated  more  remotely  from 
the  Mansion  House  of  Ury,  and  substituting  therefor  certain 
other  lands  of  a  greater  rental  value  and  more  nearly  adjacent 
to  the  bulk  of  the  estate,  which  other  lands  were  already  owned 
in  fee  by  Robert  Barclay-Allardice. 

A  step  to  be  taken  towards  a  release  of  any  part  of  the  en- 
tailed estate,  was  the  securing  of  the  consent  thereto  of  Parlia- 
ment; and  accordingly  and  in  1805  a  private  bill  was  passed  (in- 
dexed among  the  "Local  and  Personal  Acts,"  but  not  officially 
printed),  which  will  be  found  among  the  private  bills  of  45  George 
III.  A  copy  of  such  act  is  printed  in  Appendix  B  hereunto  an- 
nexed. 

By  this  Act  of  Parliament,  leave  was  granted  Robert  Barclay- 
Allardice  to  apply  to  the  Court  of  Session  in  Scotland  and  under 
the  direction  and  with  the  approbation  of  that  Court  to  settle  as 
a  part  of  the  entailed  estate,  and  in  all  things  subject  to  the  terms 
of  the  deed  of  1722,  the  lands  then  owned  by  him;  and  it  was 
provided  that  when  such  deed  of  settlement, — or  "Settlement  of 
Tailzie,"  as  it  was  known  to  the  Scotch  law, — was  duly  executed 
and  recorded  in  the  Register  of  Entails  for  Scotland,  and  also  in 
the  register  of  the  Court  of  Session  "for  preservation,"  a  Charter 
of  resignation  should  pass  and  Infeftment  be  taken  "by  virtue  of 
the  precept  of  sasine  therein  contained."  The  act  further  pro- 
vided that  at  once  upon  the  recording  of  the  deed,  the  passing  of 
the  Charter  and  the  completing  of  the  Infeftment,  the  specified 


Records  at  Bury  Hill,  Surrey.  19 


portion  of  the  entailed  estate  should  thenceforward  stand  forever 
released  from  the  limitations  contained  in  the  deed  of  entail  of 
1722. 

From  the  terms  of  this  act  it  would  seem  probable  that  a 
reference  to  the  Register  of  Entails,  or  to  the  record  of  the  Court 
of  Session,  would  disclose  the  "Settlement  of  Tailzie,"  and  in- 
cidentally the  names  of  the  heirs  whose  contingent  rights  were 
cut  off  by  the  alteration  of  the  entail.  But  a  search  of  the  Reg- 
ister of  Entails  from  1723  to  1897  failed  to  disclose  mention  of 
any  such  deed  or  settlement,  as  does  a  search  from  1781  to  1830 
of  the  Sasine  Register  for  Kincardine  (the  county  in  which  Ury 
is  located)  preserved  at  Stonehaven.  So,  too,  the  records  of  the 
Court  of  Session  from  1805  to  1835  contain  no  reference  to  the 
matter  of  any  kind  whatsoever. 

The  Register  of  Deeds  at  Edinburgh,  however,  does  contain 
the  record  of  a  "Consent  and  Commission"  executed  by  Robert 
Barclay-Allardice  under  date  of  October  19th,  1805,  in  which  he 
refers,  among  other  things,  to  the  lands  "lately  freed  from  the 
"  fetters  of  the  entail  of  Ury  by  an  Act  passed  in  the  forty-fifth 
"year  of  his  present  Majesty's  reign"  (recorded  Vol.  301,  No- 
vember 20,  1807),  thus  indicating  probably  the  point  of  view  of 
those  most  interested,  namely,  that  where  Parliament  had  once 
spoken,  its  authority  could  not  be  strengthened  by  a  decree  of 
the  Court  of  Session. 

Under  date  or  December  20th,  1821,  a  Charter  of  Resigna- 
tion issued  under  the  great  seal  (sealed  February  21st,  1822), 
wherein  Robert  Barclay-Allardice  resigned  in  favor  of  himself 
and  his  heirs,  as  they  existed  on  July  31st,  182 1,  certain  specified 
lands,  among  which  were  those  "erected  into  the  Barony  of  Ury 
"  by  Charter  under  the  Great  Seal  in  favour  of  Colonel  David 
"  Barclay  of  Ury  and  his  heirs  therein  mentioned"  under  date  of 
August  13th,  1679.1  A  resignation  of  an  entailed  estate  in  favor 
of  any  person  named  and  his  heirs,  seems  to  have  had  the  effect 
of  vesting  the  fee  in  such  person  to  the  exclusion  of  those  con- 
tingently interested  in  the  entail;  and  when  such  resignation  is 
confirmed  by  a  charter  from  the  Crown,  the  entail  seems  to  be 
most  effectively  and  permanently  broken. 


^See  Register  of  the  Great  Seal  at  Edinburgh,  vol.  165,  No.  29. 


20  A  Mistaken  Tradition, 


The  records  contain  abundant  evidence  of  the  increasing 
financial  embarrassment  which  overtook  Robert  Barclay- Allardice 
(or  "Capt.  Barclay-Allardice,"  as  he  was  generally  known)  in 
the  earlier  half  of  the  nineteenth  century,  and  show  that  on  June 
2ist,  1844,  he  at  length  made  a  transfer  of  his  property  in  trust 
for  his  creditors.2  Ten  years  later  and  after  his  death  and  under 
date  of  November  8th,  1854,  his  trustees  sold  his  entire  estate, 
including  nearly  all  of  the  "Barony  of  Ury"  as  erected  in  1679, 
to  Alexander  Baird,  of  Gartsherrie  Ironworks,  in  whose  family 
the  title  now  stands.  As  this  transfer  was  effected  without  the 
consent  or  even  citation  into  Court  of  any  of  those  who  under 
the  deed  of  entail  of  1722  might  have  a  contingent  interest  in 
the  estate,  it  may  be  assumed  that  the  entail  was  deemed  of  no 
effect, — certainly  after  the  passing  of  the  Charter  of  Resignation 
in  1821.3 


^See  Sheriff-court  Books  of  Kincardineshire,  record  of  June  i,   1834. 

'Since  making  the  searches  above  noted,  the  writer  has  been  informed  by  Robert 
Barclay-Allardice,  Esq.,  F.  S.  A.,  Scot.,  and  Mayor  of  Lostwithiel,  Cornwall, — (a 
grandson  of  the  Robert  Barclay-Allardice  last  mentioned  in  the  text), — that  in  1820 
his  grandfather  took  the  opinion  of  counsel  as  to  whether  he  was  bound  by  the  entail 
or  could  alter  the  succession  at  will;  and  that  upon  their  advising  that  it  was  com- 
petent for  him  to  change  the  succession  at  pleasure,  he  took  steps  which  resulted  in 
the  issuing  on  December  20th,  1821,  of  the  Charter  of  resignation  under  the  great  seal 
which  is  referred  to  in  the  text.  The  counsel  whose  opinions  were  thus  acted  upon 
were  eminent  lawyers  of  the  day  and  both  of  them  Judges  of  the  Court  of  Session, — 
the  one  Lord  Jeffrey  (F.  Jeffrey)  and  the  other  Lord  Corehouse  (George  Cranstoun). 
Mr.  Barclay-Allardice  has  courteously  sent  to  the  writer  a  copy  of  the  original  memorial 
and  opinions,  which  he  states  have  been  compared  by  him  personally  with  the  originals 
in  his  custody  and  are  accurate  transcripts  of  the  same.     They  are  as  follows: 

Memori.^l. 

"The  memorialist  is  proprietor  of  the  Estate  of  Ury,  which,  by  the  title 
deeds  thereof,  stands  destined  to  heirs  male.  His  wife  lately  died,  leaving 
two  daughters  on  whom  he  is  desirous  of  settling  the  above  estate,  the  eldest 
to  succeed  without  division.  The  Estate  of  Ury  stands  devised  by  the  present 
titles  to  heirs  male,  under  a  Disposition  and  Deed  of  Tailzie  (which  is  re- 
corded in  the  Register  of  Entails),  executed  by  his  great  grandfather,  Robert 
Barclay  of  Ury,  9th  October,  1722. 

"If  this  destination  can  by  no  means  whatever  be  defeated,  that  prop- 
erty, in  the  event  of  the  memorialist  dying  without  sons,  would  descend  to  his 
brother;  and  the  memorialist  is  naturally  desirous  that  it  should  not  go  out 
of  his  ov.n  family. 

"Has  the  memorialist  power  under  the  present  investitures  of  the 
Estate  of  Ury,  gratuitously  to  alter  the  course  of  succeession  thereby  estab- 
lished, and  will  he  be  subject  to  any  claim  at  the  instance  of  the  remote  heirs 
of  Tailzie  for  so  doing,  and  of  what  nature  and  to  what  extent  are  such 
claims  to  be  apprehended? 

"A  copy  of  the  Deed  of  Tailzie  is  sent  herewith."

The  fact  that  this  was  so  has  proved  something  of  a  disap- 
pointment, for  the  writer  had  hoped  to  find  on  some  court  or  other 
records  the  names  of  those  whose  consent  to  the  breaking  of  the 
entail  had  been  deemed  essential,  and  in  this  way  demonstrate  still 
more  conclusively  that  the  descendants  of  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay 
were  not  also  the  descendants  of  John  Barclay  of  East  New 
Jersey. 

That  consents  to  the  release  of  certain  lands  from  the  entail 
were,  shortly  prior  to  the  passage  of  the  Act  of  Parliament  above 
mentioned,  obtained  from  the  then  living  heirs  of  John  Barclay  of 
East  New  Jersey,  is  abundantly  established  by  letters  which  are 
still  preserved  at  Bury  Hill, — the  male  representation  of  the 
Barclays  of  Mather  and  Ury  having  passed  after  the  death  of 
Capt.  Barclay-Allardice  to  the  eldest  male  descendant,  then  living, 
of  the  apologist's  second  son,  David,  namely,  Charles  Barclay 
(b.  1780)  of  Bury  Hill. 

The  following  chart  will  serve  to  make  these  relationships 
more  clear.  It  has  been  abbreviated  for  the  purposes  of  con- 
venience by  the  omission  therefrom,  with  few  exceptions,  of 
younger  sons  and  of  daughters  and  of  the  dates  of  births,  deaths 
and  marriaees :

"I  am  of  opinion  that  there  is  no  effectual  prohibition  against  altering 
the  order  of  succession  in  the  Tailzie  referred  to,  and  that  there  is  no  suf- 
ficient resolutive  clause  to  protect  even  those  prohibitions  which  it  does  con- 
tain. I  think,  therefore,  that  the  memorialist  may  alter  the  order  of  succes- 
sion and  dispone  in  favour  of  his  daughters  without  being  liable  in  damages 
or  otherwise  to  the  heirs  of  entail.

The  succession  may  be  altered  by  executing  a  Procuratory  of  Resignation  in 
favour  of  himself  and  his  heirs  whatsoever,  or  such  other  heirs  as  he  thinks 
proper  to  name,  and  on  the  Procuratory  a  Charter  and  Infeftment  ought  to

The  persons  shown  in  the  foregoing  chart  who  took  part  in 
the  correspondence  to  be  noted  below,  were  the  venerable  David 
Barclay  of  Walthamstow,  Essex,  a  grandson  of  the  apologist,  and 
such  David  Barclay's  nephew,  Robert  Barclay,  the  owner  of  the 
great  brewery  at  Southwark  which  bore  his  name,  and  the  founder 
of  the  Bury  Hill  line  of  Barclays.     Robert's  father,  Alexander 


Records  at  Bury   Hill,   Surrey.  23 

Barclay,  (b.  1711),  ran  quickly  through  the  moneys  which  were 
left  him  by  his  mother,  and  then  procured  an  appointment  as 
Comptroller  of  the  Customs  at  Philadelphia,  in  which  City  his 
son  Robert  was  born  in  1751.  Robert's  life,  however,  was  mainly 
spent  in  England  where  he  amassed  a  considerable  fortune,  and 
among  other  investments  purchased  some  20,000  acres  of  coal 
land  on  the  Susquehanna  River  in  what  is  now  Bradford  County, 
Pennsylvania.  This  tract  is  referred  to  in  some  of  the  letters 
referred  to  below,  photographic  copies  of  the  originals  of  which 
letters  have  been  furnished  me  through  the  courtesy  of  Rev. 
Charles  Wright  Barclay  of  Little  Amwell  Vicarage,  Hertford 
Heath,  Herts,  a  brother  of  the  present  (1903)  head  of  the  house. 

As  early  as  1761,  it  would  seem,  and  long  before  any  im- 
agined occasion  arose  for  the  obtaining  of  the  consents  of  the 
heirs  of  the  entail  to  a  modification  of  the  terms  thereof,  David 
Barclay,  the  second  son  of  the  apologist,  and  consequently  a 
nephew  of  the  John  Barclay  who  had  settled  in  East  New  Jersey 
in  1684,  recognized  the  John  Barclay  then  living  in  South  Amboy, 
New  Jersey,  as  a  son  of  his  uncle  John,  and  sent  to  him  a  gift  of 
iioo. 

This  incident  is  referred  to  in  the  following  letter  now  at 
Bury  Hill  written  by  David  Barclay  of  Walthamstow  to  his 
nephew  Robert  at  Park  Street,  Southwark,  London : 

Endorsed :     David  Barclay,  Walthamstow. 
Addressed:  Robert  Barclay,  Park  Street,  Southwark. 

W.  19/10.  i8or  P.  M. 
Dr.  Nephew — 

Since  mine  sent  this  morning,  I  have  found  three  letters  from  John 
Barclay  viz. 

To  my  Father:  Dated  perth  Amboy  2nd  May  1761,  in  which  he  writes 
"I  am  in  the  6oth  year  of  my  age,  I  lost  my  wife  3  yrs. 
ago  and  have  5  sons  (4  of  them  married)  &  3  daughters" 
&  acknowledged  £100 — present. 

To  my  Father:  Dated  Perth  Amboy,  20  March  1763  about  440  acres  of 
land  of  John  Falconer's  wch  he  wished  to  purchase. 

To  David,  John  &  Robert;  Dated  South  Amboy  20th  July  1774  abt.  do. 

Now  it  appears  that  the  above  John  was  the  son  of  John  the  Brother 
of  the  Apologist  who  went  to  Jersey,  &  died  in  1731,  &  should  be  so 
marked  in  the  plan. 

Thy  affect  D.B. 

William  Dillwjm  wishes  to  see  the  likeness  of  Dr.  Park,  so  pray  bring  it 
with  thee.    The  Pork  proved  very  fine." 


24  A  Mistaken  Tradition. 


Robert  Barclay,  the  nephew,  was  in  this  country  in  1774,  and 
in  that  year,  at  Trenton,  met  John  Barclay  the  son  of  the  emi- 
grant to  East  New  Jersey,  and  his  two  sons  John  and  Charles. 
In  their  presence,  and  presumably  from  information  which  was 
afforded  by  them,  he  made  in  his  own  handwriting  a  memo- 
randum of  the  then  living  descendants  of  John  Barclay,  second 
of  that  name  in  New  Jersey,  with  a  statement  of  their  respective 
ages  "for  mention  in  the  genealogy  of  our  family,"  as  Robert 
Barclay  himself  put  it.  This  memorandum,  too,  is  still  preserved 
at  Bury  Hill  and  reads  as  follows :

26  A  Mistaken  Tradition. 


Another  letter  addressed  to  Robert  Barclay  of  Bury  Hill  is 
among  the  papers  at  Surrey  and  bears  the  following  endorsement 
in  his  handwriting: 

"John  Barclay,  New  Jersey.     Genealogy  and  letter  to  purchase  446  acres 
of  ex'ors  of  D.  Falconer". 

The  letter  reads : 

Trenton,  i6th  May,  1774. 
Cozin, 

My  Son  Robert  Barclay  now  lives  on  a  tract  of  land  at  Matcheponix 
near  Cranberry,  in  East  Jersey  containing  Four  Hundred  &  Forty  Six 
Acres  as  by  a  Survey  about  the  year  1762 — the  right  &  title  is  supposed 
to  be  invested  in  the  heirs  of  David  Falconer  to  whom  David  Barclay 
Senr.  (Deed)  was  an  Executor.  I  wish  you  would  learn  who  they  really 
are  and  then  if  their  title  is  quite  clear,  endeavor  to  purchase  it,  giving 
from  fifteen  to  twenty  Shillings  per  acre — Exch.  a  175.  The  following 
are  the  terms  of  payment  I  propose.  Either  to  pay  one  half  down  &  the 
remainder  in  a  year  from  the  date  of  the  deed,  or  if  that  is  not_  accepted, 
I  will  have  the  whole  sum  paid  at  the  delivery  of  the  deed  &  this  I  deem 
a  sufficient  Voucher  for  your  proposing  the  above  terms  &  for  the  exe- 
cution of  them. 

I  am  your  Cozin 

J  NO.  Barclay 

Prior  to  the  passage  of  the  Act  of  Parliament  above  referred 
to,  and  manifestly  in  anticipation  thereof,  Robert  Barclay  of  Bury 
Hill  and  his  uncle  David  Barclay  of  Walthamstow,  addressed  the 
descendants  of  John  Barclay  (who  came  to  East  New  Jersey  in 
1684)  through  Phineas  Bond,  Esq.,  the  British  Consul-General 
at  Philadelphia,  and  requested  the  execution  by  them  of  a  deed 
of  consent  to  the  proposed  alteration  of  the  entail.  The  pro- 
posed deed  was  forwarded,  together  with  a  genealogical  account 
of  the  family  and  other  papers  which  are  referred  to  in  the  letters 
that  follow.  A  request  was  evidently  made  for  detailed  informa- 
tion as  to  the  family  of  each  of  the  grandchildren  of  John  Barclay, 
the  immigrant,  for  in  connection  with  the  signing  of  the  deed  of 
consent  separate  letters  were  written  by  five  of  the  then  living 
grandchildren,  of  which  letters,  still  preserved  at  Bury  Hill,  pho- 
tographic copies  have  been  furnished  through  the  courtesy  of 
P.ev.  Charles  Wright  Barclay,  of  Hertford  Heath.  These  letters 
bear  pathetic  testimony  to  the  rugged  experiences  which  the 
descendants  of  this  member  of  the  house  of  Ury  had  doubtless 
endured.  They  are  dated  on  the  8th  and  9th  of  March,  1802, 
with  the  exception  of  the  letter  from  John  Barclay  (third  of  that 


Records  at  Bury  Hill,  Surrey.  27 


name  in  New  Jersey)  which  was  written  from  New  York  under 
date  of  March  29th,  1802. 

John  Barclay's  letter,  dated  March  29th,  1802,  is  as  follows :

who  had  married  one  David  Stout.     It  reads  as  follows :

The  last  in  this  series  of  letters  which  accompanied  the  sign- 
ing of  the  deed  of  consent  was  written  by  Rev.  David  Barclay,  of 
Bound  Brook,  a  son  of  Charles  Barclay  above  mentioned.  Rev. 
David  Barclav  wrote  as  follows : 


Records  at   Bury   Hill,   Surrey.  31 


Very  Dear  Kinsman 

It  is  with  strange  feelings  &  a  heart  filled  with  desire  I  employ  my  pen 
to  communicate  my  thoughts  to  connextions  &  Dear  kinsman  in  a  distant 
Nation — Since  my  birth  (tho  small)  you  have  visited  our  family  in  Amer- 
ica, &  made  an  affectionate  &  parting  feast  at  Trenton  March  the  i6th — 1774 
— Since  that  time  we  have  heard  no  more  of  you  untill  the  reception  of  your 
Letter  dated  London  Oct  31 — 1801 — which  came  to  my  fathers  hand  Jan 
27 — 1802 — Accompanied  with  a  Deed  of  Consent  and  other  papers — 
The  expectations  &  conjectures  on  this  occasion  was  big  with  anxiety, 
my  fathers  emotions  were  so  great  sleep  left  him  for  several  nights,  on 
hearing  of  his  forefathers  &  present  friends  in  Europe — On  a  visit  to 
my  father  soon  after  I  had  the  unexpected  &  satisfactory  opportunity  of 
perusing  your  letter  the  sd  Deed  &  other  papers,  with  a  letter  from 
Phineas  Bond  Esqr  of  Phila.  Con  Gen  &c  of  the  British  Nation.  The 
intention  and  design  of  all  appears  to  be  to  procure  against  the  next  sitting 
of  Parliament  A  Deed  of  Consent  signed  by  all  the  descendants  of  my 
great  grandfather  John  Barclay  (or  their  legal  representatives)  who  is 
said  to  have  settled  in  East  Jersey  &  died  there  in  1732 — For  the  express 
purpose  of  enabling  Robert  Barclay  Allardyce  to  obtain  an  Act  of  Par- 
liament to  exchange  lands  in  the  entail  that  lay  more  distant  which  you  say 
meets  the  approbation  of  your  excellent  uncle  David  Barclay  &  all  others 
concerned  in  your  Nation.  I  doubt  not  to  say  that  all  the  descendents 
of  my  great  grandfather  in  this  country  will  accede  to  it ;  yet  permit  to 
say  that  we  do  not  understand  from  the  writings  how  it  will  be  our  in- 
terest &  advantage  to  the  entailed  estate,  when  according  to  the  draft  of 
the  Deed  of  Consent  the  rent  of  that  part  of  the  entailed  estate  appears 
to  exceed  the  rents  of  the  lands  desired  ^82:8:8,  sterling  per  year  Further 
I  would  add  That  we  cannot  trace  the  line  of  descent  from  Robert  Bar- 
clay the  entailer  (  notwithstanding  the  care  you  have  taken  to  exhibit 
the  same)  to  the  present  day  or  when  or  from  whom  it  may  possibly  decnt 
to  us,  which  you  will  please  to  shew  in  your  next  as  soon  as  convenient — 
Yet  allow  me  to  afifirm  that  with  the  greatest  chearfulness  &  alacrity,  we 
all  agree  in  signing  the  deed  of  Consent  without  a  dicenting  voice,  as  we 
doubt  not  of  your  probity  &  friendship,  yea  it  is  with  inexpressible  pleasure 
we  affix  our  signatures  to  comply  with  the  desires  &  interests  of  our  re- 
lations in  Britain  tho  we  may  never  reap  any  fruits  It  appears  from  your 
letter  that  your  aged  uncle  desires  a  true  list  of  all  our  family  with  their 
ages  occupation  &  situation  in  life  this  I  am  told  to  comply  with  &  will 
be  repeated;  therefore  I  shall  come  to  my  own  family.  I  am  the  youngest 
son  as  you  know  of  my  father  Charles  Barclay  &  great  grandson  of  that 
John  Barclay  who  settled  in  East  Jersey — I  am  blessed  with  three  living 
children  my  first  child  a  daughter  is  no  more  Charles  Ray  Barclay  my 
first  son  is  six  years  old,  Maria  Day  Barclay  is  four  years  old.  William 
Day  Barclay  my  last  child  is  six  months  old  my  sons  are 
named  after  their  grandfathers — I  am  settled  twenty-seven  miles  from 
my  parents  at  Bound  Brook  in  New  Jersey  as  a  Teacher  or  Embassador 
of  Christ  in  the  Thirty  second  year  of  my  age.  So  far  advanced  in  life 
&  so  engaged  as  puts  it  out  of  my  power  to  visit  Britain  tho  it  hath  often 
been  a  subject  of  conversation  between  me  &  my  father  before  my  marriage 
&  settlement  in  life — But  I  think  it  possible  yea  probible  that  some  one  of 
our  name  here  will  go  to  Europe  to  see  you  all  &  none  more  likely  than 
some  one  of  my  sons  &  for  my  own  part  I  should  have  no  objection  if  my 
circumstances  should  permit — as  it  would  be  fraught  with  improvement 
to  him  &  I  trust  satisfaction  to  you  in  England — It  further  appears  3^ou 
desire  to  have  &  keep  alive  a  family  correspondence,  this  is  very  desirable 
&  I  shall  deem  it  one  of  the  first  &  greatest  evidences  of  friendship  and 
without  doubt  it  will  be  truly  agreeable  to  all  our  family  here  in  America 
— I  have  been  in  Phia.  to  see  your  valued  friend  P.  Bond  on  our  business

&  he  lias  agreed  to  meet  all  our  connextions  tomorrow  at  Cranberry  Town 
two  miles  distant  from  my  fathers  in  order  to  sign  the  sd.  Deed  of  Con- 
sent &  although  some  of  the  friends  seem  to  doubt  of  the  propriety  yet 
I  presume  that  wh  intention  will  be  devclloped  to  their  complet  satisfac- 
tion— you  also  wish  to  know  what  mode  of  conveyance  will  be  the 
most  ready  &  safe  I  suppose  you  may  enclose  back  all  your  letters  & 
commit  all  your  concerns  respecting  us  to  P.  Bond  of  Phia.  or  to  his 
successor — 

Dear  brethren  I  differ  from  you  in  religious  principles  (or  shall  I 
say  in  the  mode  of  worship)  but  I  hope  and  pray  we  may  not  in  heart 
&  practice — remember  me  to  your  worthy  uncle  David  Barclay  &  to 
Robert  Barclay  of  Allardyce  &  to  all  other  unknown  kinsmen — my  com- 
panion joins  with  me  in  affectionate  reguard  to  your  nearest  friend  &  all 
other  female  friends — commending  you  to  God  &  to  the  word  of  his 
grace  which  I  know  is  able  to  save  your  souls  I  bid  you  adieu  for  the 
present  from  your  very  unworthy  friend  &  kinsman 

David  Barclay 

Bound  Brook  Somerset  County,  State  of  New  Jersey  March  the  8 — 1802. 
Robert  Barclay    Thales  Brewery,  London. 


The  suggestion  contained  in  this  letter  that  it  was  not  only 
possible  but  "probible"  that  some  one  of  the  sons  of  this  divine 
might  journey  to  Europe  to  see  the  kinsmen  there,  not  unnatural- 
ly produced  a  degree  of  consternation  in  the  mind  of  the  vener- 
able David  Barclay  in  London.  His  letter  to  his  nephew  Robert 
Barclay  of  Bury  Hill  is  ample  evidence  of  such  fact.     It  reads : 

Walthamstow  7th  of  6th  mo.  1802 
Dear  Nephew 

I  am  pleased  to  find  thou  art  safely  arrived  at  home,  &  hope  we 
shall  meet  soon.  By  perusing  the  letters  sent  thee  from  our  dear  rela- 
tions in  America  there  is  some  reason  to  apprehend  the  communication 
with  them  will  prove  burthensome  to  thee  in  particular,  as  their  countrj^- 
man ;  from  my  name  sake  the  parson's  intimation.  I  think  it  would  be 
prudent  to  embrace  the  first  opportunity  to  inform  him,  by  no  means  to 
send  his  son  to  London  or  to  encourage  any  of  our  relations  to  come  to  a 
land  where  by  the  increased  price  of  everything  the  heavy  taxes  &  the 
difficulty  of  providing  for  young  men,  thou  has  had  thoughts  of  sending 
some  of  thy  sons  to  America,  &  even  of  coming  with  them. 

I  have  thought  of  sending  the  dear  Cousins  a  present,  viz : 


Robert 

71 
Gd.  son  of  John. 


Charles 

70 

Gd.  son  of  John. 


Peter 

68 

4th  son  of  John. 


Robert 

65 

Youngest  son  of 

John. 


Catherine    Stout 

60 

Youngest  Daughter  of  John. 

I  think  my  name  sake  the  parson  must  not  be  included  because  He  is  only 
one  of  the  sons  of  Charles,  who  is  only  the  gd.  son  of  John.  But  I  request 


Records  at  Bury  Hill,  Surrey.  33 


thou  &  Charles  will  examine  all  the  letters  &  make  more  correct  my  list 
to  bring  with  you,  &  as  6th  day  will  be  too  late  for  the  packet,  I  submit 
whether  you  could  not  conveniently  come  on  4tli  day  wch  let  me  know. 
I  shall  be  willing  to  divide  among  them  500  Dollars  properly.  I  have  been 
informed  by  J.  Hibbart  that  the  Richmond,  for  Philada,  will  not  sail  for 
several  weeks,  but  it  will  be  proper  to  enquire  whether  any  vessel  is  going 
to  N  York.  I  shall  request  thee  to  answer  Charles  B's  letter  to  me,  & 
say  that  I  am  iniirm  &  that  I  desired  thee  to  write  to  him.  Mention  in  all 
thy  letters  the  preference  thou  gives  to  America  &  the  heavy  taxes  &c. 
paid  in  England. 

By  a  memorandum  of  Br.  Springalls  it  appears  that  My.  Wagstaffe's 
will  is  in  the  Tin  Box  of  108  at  ye  Anchor,  &  when  that  box  shall  be 
opened  I  desire  a  search  may  be  made  in  it  for  a  bond  of  Hartford  & 
Powells  for  i2000,  also  for  a  bond  of  Evan  Barclay  &  Co.  &  if  at  the 
same  time  Gibson's  letters  from  1770  to  1775  could  be  found,  I  shall  be 
pleased. 

By  the  copy  of  M.  W.'s  will  it  appears  that  Ann  Sorton  is  now  to 
have  the  interest  of  £1500,  4  per  cents,  &  after  her  decease,  that  sum  is 
to  be  divided  among  9  Legatees.  Br.  S.  writes  that  T.  W.  reced  the 
dividends  on  the  £500  &  remitted  to  her  half  yearly. 

D.B. 

The  gifts  which  David  Barclay  thus  purposed  making  were 
duly  made,  as  appears  from  the  following  fulsome  letter  written 
by  Phineas  Bond,  the  British  Consul  at  Philadelphia: 

Philadelphia  12  November  1802 
My  dear  Sir: 

In  compliance  with  your  Request  communicated  to  me  by  my  worthy 
Friend,  my  friend  Mr.  Robert  Barclay,  I  have  paid  to  the  five  following 
Persons  One  Hundred  Dollars  each,  and  now  inclose  their  respective 
Receipts  drawn  in  the  Form  presented. 

Charles  Barclay  1 

John  Barclay  !     being  the  four  surviving  Sons  of  John  Barclay 

Peter  Barclay  f  who  died  in  1786. 

Robert  Barclay  J 

also  to  Catherine  Stout  their  Sister; — making  together  the  Sum  of  Five 
Hundred  Dollars — equal  at  168  per  cent  to  £111:12:2  sterling,  for  which 
sum  I  have  drawn  upon  you  of  this  days  date  at  60  days  sight  in  favour 
of  my  Bankers  Messrs  Child  &  Co. 

From  the  knowledge  I  had  acquired  of  these  good  People  in  the  In- 
tercourse I  had  had  with  them,  respecting  the  Deed  of  Consent  executed 
last  Spring,  I  was  satisfied  they  were  so  little  conversant  with  matters  of 
Business  as  to  be  liable  to  great  Risque  in  transacting  Money  Matters, 
at  a  great  Distance,  I  therefore  made  it  a  Point,  out  of  Regard  to  their 
Interests,  and  from  motives  of  personal  Respect  due  to  you,  to  combine 
this  Payment  with  a  Call  I  had  into  New  Jersey  and  to  see,  myself,  that 
your  Bovmty  went  into  its  proper  Channel.  Upon  repairing  to  Cranberry 
I  had  some  Expectation  of  meeting  them  all  there;  but  I  was  disap- 
pointed, as  Mr.  John  Barclay  had  gone  some  days  before  to  New  York, 
whither  I  was  obliged  to  send  his  Receipt,  which  will  account  for  the 
difference  of  the  Dates. 

Your  kindred  received  this  Mark  of  Munificence  with  all  the  right 
Feeling  of  Gratitude  which  is  due  to  Acts  of  such  uncommon  Liberality; 
and  it  was  a  high  Gratification  to  me  to  observe  the  Agitation  of  their

Minds,  while  they  wanted  words  to  express  their  sense  of  your  Goodness. 

I  have  great  Satisfaction  in  assuring  you  that  they  are  Persons  of 
good  moral  Conduct  who  bear  an  excellent  Reputation  in  their  Neigh- 
borhood ;  two  of  them  Peter  &  Robert  Barclay  are  not  in  such  good 
Plight  as  the  others  are;  but  by  their  Care,  Industry  and  Oeconomy  they 
make  out  to  live  tolerably  well. 

I  am  happy  in  this  Opportunity  of  acknowledging  the  obliging  Pres- 
ents of  Books  lately  transmitted  to  me,  at  your  Instance,  which  I  con- 
sider as  a  Proof  of  your  Friendship  highly  flattering  to  me;  that  in 
particular  which  relates  to  the  humane  Emancipation  of  your  Slaves  in 
Unity  Valley  Pen  in  Jamaica; — an  Act  which  combined  with  the  great 
Principles  you  have  so  long  and  so  zealously  endeavor'd  to  enforce,  a 
practical  Observance,  by  which  a  prodigious  Sacrifice  was  made,  a  sacri- 
fice which  places  the  extreme  Benevolence  of  your  Heart,  and  the  cor- 
rect Uniformity  of  your  Judgment,  in  a  most  distinguished  and  exemplary 
Station. 

With  Sentiments  of  the  most  perfect  Respect,  I  am  my  dear  Sir  your 
very  faithful  and  obedient  Servant.

The  next  letter  was  from  the  last  writer's  brother,  Robert 
Barclay,  and  reads  as  follows :

The  third  letter  was  from  John  Barclay  and  was  written 
from  New  York  some  months  after  his  brothers  had  written  the

It  is  not  unreasonable  to  suppose  that  if  Rev.  Thomas  Bar- 
clay, the  first  rector  of  St.  Peter's  at  Albany,  had  been  a  son  of 
John  Barclay  of  East  New  Jersey  as  is  claimed,  some  memoran- 
dum of  that  fact  would  have  been  preserved  at  Bury  Hill,  and  the 
signatures  of  his  descendants  would  have  been  secured  to  a  deed 
of  consent  to  the  change  in  the  entail  at  the  same  time  that  the 
deed  was  being  executed  by  the  other  descendants  of  John  Barclay 
as  shown  above.  It  is  highly  improbable  that  such  a  descent, 
had  it  existed,  could  have  been  overlooked.  The  descendants  of 
Rev.  Thomas  Barclay,  at  the  time  it  was  thought  necessary  to 
obtain  the  consent  of  all  contingent  heirs  to  a  change  in  the  terms 
of  the  entail,  were  widely  known  and  were  influential,  and  had 
intermarried  with  members  of  the  most  prominent  families  in 
New  York.  The  Barclays  that  zvere  recognized,  on  the  other 
hand,  were  obscure  and  for  the  most  part  unlettered ;  and  it  is 
practically  impossible  to  imagine  that  any  descent  through  Rev. 
Thomas  Barclay,  if  in  fact  there  were  one,  was  unknown  to  the 
family  at  Bury  Hill,  or  if  known,  would  for  a  moment  have  been 
overlooked.  The  ascertaining  of  who  were  the  descendants  of 
the  apologist's  brother  John  had  too  important  a  bearing  upon 
the  legal  matter  then  under  consideration  to  permit  a  mere  per- 
functory investigation  of  the  line  of  descent;  and  it  seems  to  the 
writer  that  the  unquestioned  recognition  of  John  Barclay,  Jr.,  of 
South  Amboy,  as  the  son,  and  as  the  only  son,  of  the  apologist's 
brother  John  should  be  accepted  as  against  an  even  widely  ac- 
cepted "tradition"  to  the  contrary. 

At  the  time  the  New  Jersey  family  was  engaged  in  the  cor- 
respondence above  quoted,  Col.  Thomas  Barclay,  a  grandson  of 
Rev.  Thomas,  was  British  Consul-General  for  the  Eastern  States 
of  America,  resident  at  New  York.  He  seems  to  have  been  ac- 
quainted with  the  John  Barclay  of  New  York  (third  of  that 
name  in  New  Jersey),  who  wrote  one  of  the  foregoing  letters, 
and  at  the  same  time  was  acquainted  with  the  Robert  Barclay  of 
Bury  Hill,  who  was  so  actively  interested  in  securing  the  consents 
of  the  descendants  of  the  apologist's  brother  John  to  a  change  in 
the  terms  of  the  entail.  This  latter  fact  is  evidenced  by  the  fol- 
lowing letters  which  are  still  preserved  at  Bury  Hill : 


38  A  Mistaken  Tradition, 


Duplicate  New  York  6th.  March  1805 

My  dear  Sir, 

You  will  perceive  from  a  perusal  of  the  inclosed  papers,*  that  on 
my  arrival  at  this  place  in  the  year  1799,  as  His  Majesty's  Consul  General 
for  the  Eastern  States  of  America,  I  adopted  the  readiest  and  best  means, 
by  applying  to  Mr.  Bond,  His  Majesty's  Consul  General  at  Philadelphia, 
of  obtaining  the  necessary  information  of  the  general  duties  and  forms 
of  the  office,  and  whether  there  were  any  and  what  fees  attached  to  it. 
In  consequence  of  Mr.  Bond's  answer  that  fees  might  be  taken  by  gen- 
eral consent  of  the  Consuls,  or  by  an  application  to  the  Secretary  of  State 
and  that  it  was  customary  elsewhere,  I  wrote  to  Lord  Grenville,  then 
Secretary  of  State  on  the  great  expence  attending  living  in  this  country, 
and  that  I  should  presume  to  take  fees  of  office  from  Americans  and 
other  Foreigners  until  I  received  his  Lordship's  order  to  the  contrary. 
No  countermand  has  ever  been  received,  and  from  thence  I  have  with 
reason  concluded  his  Lordship  did  not  disapprove  of  the  measure. 

By  a  letter  which  Mr.  Merry  His  Majesty's  Minister  Plenipotentiary 
to  these  States  wrote  not  long  since  to  Mr.  Coles,  it  appeared  that  he  was 
of  the  opinion  fees  could  not  be  taken.  You  will  observe  from  the  copy 
of  my  letter  to  him  that  I  have  made  him  acquainted  with  my  conduct, 
and  the  principles  on  which  it  was  founded.  I  have  reason  to  believe 
Mr.  Merry  will  make  some  representation  to  prevent  the  continuance  of 
taking  fees.  Under  this  idea,  I  have  by  this  conveyance  written  to  Mr. 
Hammond,  Under  Secretary  of  vState,  detailing  the  particulars  and  re- 
questing him  to  lay  my  letter  before  Lord  Mulgrave  for  his  direction. 

I  trust  you  will  be  of  opinion  on  reading  the  inclosed  that  my  con- 
duct has  been  candid  and  proper,  and  that  the  reason  urged  for  Consuls 
receiving  Fees  from  Foreigners  are  founded  on  good  grounds.  What  Mr. 
Merry's  objections  may  be  it  is  not  in  my  power  to  anticipate.  Ameri- 
cans and  other  Foreigners  in  amity  with  Great  Britain  have  always  paid 
these  fees  cheerfully,  because  they  are  not  entitled  to  require  any  official 
act  from  me  gratuitously,  and  all  the  other  Consuls  in  this  city  receive 
them.  These  fees,  almost  without  an  exception,  arise  from  certificates 
annexed  to  Notarial  Acts.  You  will  perceive  they  are  simple,  and  re- 
late only  to  the  Notary  Public,  and  not  the  Parties  who  have  deposed 
before  him  who  frequently  I  do  not  know,  and  never  see.  It  is  the 
Notary  who  applies  to  me  for  an  attestation  that  he  is  duly  commissioned, 
and  so  scrupulous  have  I  been  for  some  time  past,  as  not  to  insert  in  my 
certificates  even  the  ordinary  words,  "that  faith  v/as  due  to  the  notarial 
act."  But  it  may  be  objected  that  in  cases  where  an  American  citizen 
covers  American  property,  a  certificate  of  mine  to  the  notarial  act,  may 
add  some  degree  of  weight  to  the  oath  of  the  exporter.  Such  an  ob- 
jection cannot  require  a  serious  reply. — The  officers  of  His  Majesty's 
Navy  when  they  overhaul  a  ship  and  examine  her  papers,  judge  from 
general  or  particular  circumstances  independent  of  the  oath  of  the  ship- 
per, the  attestation  of  the  notary,  or  the  Consular  certificate, — Besides  if 
I  am  not  to  certify  the  notary,  the  Mayor  of  this  city  will  do  it — So  that 
nothing  can  be  effected  by  the  interdiction. — Under  these  circumstances 
it  appears  to  me  wonderful  that  that  there  can  be  a  shadow  of  objection 
to  His  Majesty's  Consuls  receiving  fees  from  Foreigners,  particularly  as 
the  foreign  Consuls  take  fees  in  all  cases  from  British  Subjects. — You 
will  notice  what  I  have  said  to  Mr.  Merry  on  the  subject  of  expenditures, 
over  and  above  the  allowance  from  Government. — Mr.  Wallace  His 
Majesty's  Consul  for  Georgia,  died  last  year,  leaving  a  large  family  penni-

less — Mr.  MacDonogh  Consul  for  Massachusetts  who  died  about  a  month 
since  has  left  his  family  in  so  distressed  a  situation,  that  even  the  Ameri- 
cans at  Boston  Philadelpha  and  New  York  are  making  charitable  collec- 
tions for  their  support. — Is  it  not  distressing  to  learn  the  fate  of  such 
old  servants — My  situation  is  not  similar,  but  it  is  far  from  pleasant,  with 
a  large  family,  to  reflect,  that  I  am  under  the  necessity  to  injure  the  pa- 
ternal estate  of  my  children  to  support  myself  decently,  as  His  Majesty's 
principal  Servant  in  this  city  and  State. 

Will  you  my  dear  Sir,  on  the  receipt  of  this  letter  wait  on  Mr.  Ham- 
mond and  converse  with  him  on  this  subject. — I  trust  his  good  sense  will 
point  out  that  I  have  not  acted  amiss,  and  that  he  will  advise  His  Maj- 
esty's Consul  may  be  permitted  to  take  the  customary  fees  from  Foreigners. 
— I  once  flattered  myself  that  I  stood  well  in  the  good  opinion  of  Mr. 
Hammond,  and  have  no  reason  to  suppose  he  thinks  ot'nerwise  of  me  at 
present — yet  I  am  anxious  to  have  my  own  interest  strengthened  by  yours 
and  one  or  two  of  your  friends — To  Lord  Mulgrave  I  am  wholly  un- 
known.— I  trust  you  will  represent  me,  as  you  conceive  consistent  with 
truth,  and  add  that  any  extention  of  Indulgence  to  my  present  allowances 
will  be  bestowed  on  a  faithful  Servant  of  His  Majesty,  and  at  the  same 
time  doing  you  a  favor. — I  intreat  your  pardon  for  soliciting  this  un- 
pleasant service  from  you. 

Believe  me

Dear  Sir

friend  and  servant

Private  and  Confidential. 

New  York  gth  March,  1805 
My  dear  Sir 

The  pacquet  having  been  detained  for  Mr.  Merry's  despatches,  enables 
me  to  enclose  you  a  copy  of  his  letter  in  answer  to  mine  of  the  22nd.  of 
February. — ^I  much  fear  you  will  be  tired  of  me  and  the  subject,  but  as  I 
have  it  much  to  heart,  in  vindication  of  my  conduct,  and  from  a  conviction 
that  it  is  sound  policy,  the  Consuls  in  America  should  be  allowed  to  take 
fees  of  office ;  permit  me  to  intreat  your  patience  to  the  following  remarks. 

Mr.  Merry  states  that  one  of  the  reasons  which  operates  against  his 
sanctioning  the  receiving  of  fees,  is  that  the  custom  has  not  been  adopted 
by  Consul  General  Bond,  Consul  Hamilton,  or  any  other  Consul  or  Vice 
Consul  in  the  southern  States. — On  my  arrival  in  these  States  in  1799, 
Mr.  Bond  suggested  to  me  the  propriety  and  necessity  of  taking  fees  of 
office  and  it  was  agreed  that  a  joint  application  should  be  made  to  Lord 
Grenville — On  my  return  to  New  York  from  Philadelphia,  Mr.  Bond 
wrote  me,  that  having  been  several  years  in  office  and  not  having  taken 
fees,  it  would  appear  singular  for  him  to  apply ;  but  as  I  had  lately  been 
appointed  there  could  be  no  objection  for  me  to  do  it. — This  letter  I  cannot 
lay  my  hand  on ;  but  a  copy  of  his  letter  marked  A,  whereof  I  have  sent 
you  a  copy  is  fully  expressive  of  his  wishes  and  sentiments  on  this  subject; 
and  the  only  reason  why  Mr.  Bond  and  the  Consuls  to  the  Southward  have 
not  taken  fees,  is  owing  to  my  not  having  received  expressly  an  affirma- 
tive approbation  from  Lord  Grenville ;  but  which  as  far  as  respected  my- 
self, required  no  answer  unless  his  Lordship  disapproved  of  what  I  had 
stated  to  him,  I  should  do,  until  I  received  his  wishes  to  the  contrary' — 
Thus  stands  the  case  for  Mr.  Bond  and  the  Consuls  to  the  Southward. 

When  Mr.  Merry  went  to  the  north  of  Europe  to  establish  a  Con- 
sular   System,   and   discovered   that   Certificates    had   been   granted   by  a 


40  A  Mistaken  Tradition. 


British  Consul  for  the  purpose  of  showing  the  neutral  quality  of  Vessels 
of  Merchandize ;  he  acted  wisely  in  suppressing  the  usage  and  the  fees ; 
because  such  proceedings  were  highly  improper  and  dangerous.  In  this 
case,  was  I  to  hazard  an  opinion  on  the  person,  I  should  pronounce  that 
the  Consul  Mr.  Merry  speaks  of,  was  not  a  subject  of  His  Majesty,  but 
of  the  very  power  in  whose  favor  the  certificates  of  neutral  Property  were 
granted — I  feel  hurt  by  his  naming  such  a  case,  on  an  occasion  in  which 
I  am  personally  concerned ;  because  my  character  civil  and  military  is  too 
well  established  I  should  presume,  to  admit  even  the  possibility  of  my 
ever   doing  an   improper   act   intentionally. 

In  my  former  letter  I  have  stated  that  custom  has  established  here 
as  well  as  in  Europe,  Ministerial  or  Consular  declarations  necessary  to 
notarial  and  acts  of  a  similar  nature.  These  are  the  only  species  of  cer- 
tificates ever  granted  by  me,  save  such  as  are  pointed  out  by  Acts  of 
Parliament.  These  in  no  wise  touch  on  the  merits,  or  even  notice  the 
affidavit  or  protest  made  before  the  notary. — You  will  perceive  from  a 
copy  inclosed  of  a  letter  from  Vice  Admiral  Sir  Andrew  Mitchell  Com- 
mander in  Chief  of  His  Majesty's  Ships  of  War  in  the  American  Station, 
that  he  and  the  Admirals  in  the  West  Indies,  and  I  suspect  now  generally 
elsewhere,  understand  my  certificates  perfectly ;  and  so  far  from  their 
proving  injurious,  I  am  convinced  they  operate  by  my  means  to  the  bene- 
fit of  the  Service. 

Mr.  Merry  is  assuredly  in  an  error  in  opposing  the  receiving  of  fees. 
— On  general  principles  it  must  be  admitted,  the  better  an  officer  is  paid, 
the  less  liable  will  he  be  to  temptation — But  recollect  I  disclaim  the  Idea 
that  Consul  of  His  Majesty  on  any  occasion  would  knowingly  act  in 
violation  of  his  duty. 

I  am  with  sincere  regard 
dear  Sir 
Your  faithful!  friend  and  Serv-ant 

Tho  Barclay.

The  style  in  which  the  foregoing  letters  from  Col.  Thomas 
Barclay  were  written,  while  not  bearing  with  particular  strength 
in  either  direction,  seems  rather  less  consistent  with  kinship  than 
with  mere  friendship,  and  may  be  regarded  simply  as  one  of  the 
many  straws  which  point  against  the  correctness  of  the  tradition 
of  a  descent  of  the  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay  from  Col.  David  Barclay 
of  Ury  or  from  Col.  David's  accomplished  wife,  Lady  Katharine 
Gordon,  "the  white  rose  of  Scotland."^

PART   III. 


A  Mistaken  Tradition,  Continued. — Testimony  of  the  Records  in 

London. 

THE  most  convincing  proof,  however,  of  the  error  of  the 
contention  that  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay  of  Albany  was  the 
son  of  John  Barclay  of  East  New  Jersey,  is  found  in  the 
result  of  the  investigations  made  by  the  late  Dr.  DeLancey  H. 
Barclay  of  Baltimore,  during  the  last  few  years  of  his  life.  Con- 
vinced that  the  tradition  had  no  basis  of  fact.  Dr.  Barclay, — who 
at  the  time  of  his  death  was  the  head  of  the  family  descended 
from  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay  of  Albany ,i — made  personal  search 
in  London  for  information  concerning  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay's 
early  life  and  antecedents. 

"  The  earliest  positive  and  authentic  knowledge  which  we 
have  of  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay,"  he  writes,  "is  given  to  us  by  the 
appearance  of  his  name  in  the  list  of  students  who  entered  St. 
Salvator's  College  at  the  University  of  St.  Andrews  in  Fife,  in 
the  session  of  1683- 1684.  He  matriculated  at  the  University 
on  February  25th,  1684,  and  was  granted  the  degree  M.  A.  on 
June  14th,  1688.  His  regent's  name  was  Mr.  John  Mengies, 
and  the  degree  was  conferred  by  the  Rev.  Dr.  Alexander  Skene, 
the  Vice-Chancellor  of  the  University.  This  is  all  the  informa- 
tion which  is  afforded  by  the  records  of  the  University. 

"  From  June  14th,  1688,  until  May,  1707,  a  period  of  nine- 
teen years,  I  have  thus  far  been  able  to  find  no  reference  in  any 
record  I  have  examined  either  to  his  life  or  to  his  acts.  In 
May,  1707,  he  appears  as  an  applicant  for  Holy  Orders  from 
the  Bishop  of  London,  and  in  that  month  was  successively  or- 
dained deacon  and  priest,  as  the  following  extracts  taken  in 
the  customary  questionable  Latin,  which  are  from  the  Volume 
of  Ordination,- — 1675  to  1809, — in  St.  Paul's  Cathedral,  London, 
will  show : — 


^Dr.  Barclay's  yourger  brother,  Cuti^bert  Collingwood  Barclay,  second  of  that 
name,  is  the  present   (1903)   head  of  the  family.

"The  proximity  of  the  dates  of  these  two  ordinations  is  evi- 
"  dence  that  he  was  ordained  for  the  colonies,  as  it  was  only  in 
"  such  case  that  the  rule  was  waived  which  required  the  lapse  of 
"  a  year  between  the  taking  of  orders  as  deacon  and  the  ordina- 
"  tion  as  priest, 

"  The  lapse  of  nineteen  years  between  his  graduation  at  St. 
"  Andrews  and  his  ordination  in  London,  it  thus  far  seems  im- 
"  possible  to  fill.  If  he  entered  St.  Salvator's  in  1683-4  at  the 
"  age  of  sixteen, — and  it  is  hardly  probable  that  he  matriculated 
"  at  a  much  earlier  age, — he  would  have  been  twenty  when  he 
"  graduated  and  thirty-nine  when  he  was  ordained ;  and  we  would 
"  thus  be  able  to  fix  the  year  1667  or  1668  as  the  year  of  his 
"  birth.  He  would  thus  be  less  than  ten  years  the  junior  of  John 
"  Barclay,  who  was  born  in  1659  and  came  to  East  New  Jersey 
"  in  1684. 

"  On  May  31,  1707,  the  day  he  took  his  priestly  orders, 
"  Thomas  Barclay  signed  the  Act  of  Uniformity  and  was  forth- 
"  with  appointed  Chaplain  of  the  garrison  at  Fort  Orange,  at 
"  Albany,  which  had  recently  been  acquired  from  the  Dutch.  It 
"  is  probable  that  he  sailed  for  the  colonies  within  a  short  time 
"  after  his  appointment,  for  there  is  evidence  of  his  being  in 
"  Boston  in  November  of  the  same  year.  Rev.  Thorowgood 
"  Moore  and  Rev.  John  Brooke,  two  of  the  missionaries  of  the 
"  Society  for  the  Propagation  of  the  Gospel  in  Foreign  Parts, 
"  sailed  from  Boston  for  the  mother  country  in  November  or 
"  December,  1707,  and  were  lost  at  sea.  Prior  to  their  sailing 
"  they  made  their  wills.  The  will  of  Thorowgood  Moore,  which 
"was  not   dated  beyond   'November  1707,'    recited   his   in- 

"  tended  departure  from  America,  and  was  witnessed  by  four 
"  clergymen :  Samuel  Myles,  minister  of  the  Chapel  at  Borden- 
"  town,  N.  J. ;  Thomas  Barclay,  minister  at  Alban}^ ;  Rev.  John 
"  Brooke,  of  Elizabethtown,  N.  J. ;  and  Rev.  John  Talbot,  of 
"  Burlington,  N.  J.  The  will  of  Rev.  John  Brooke,  which  was 
"  undoubtedly  made  at  about  the  same  time,  was  dated  November

"20th,  1707,  and  thus  fixes  the  date  of  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay's 
"  presence  in  Boston.^ 

"  The  next  we  hear  of  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay  is  his  arrival  in 
"  Albany  on  June  9th,  1708,  a  considerable  part  of  the  intervening 
"  seven  months  having  possibly  been  consumed  in  the  journey 
"  from  Boston.  From  here  on  for  the  next  thirteen  years  we 
"  have  many  records  of  his  life  and  work  and  some  indications  of 
"  his  personal  characteristics." 

It  was  Dr.  Barclay's  intention  to  continue  the  investigations 
he  had  thus  commenced,  and  had  his  life  and  health  been  spared 
we  would  doubtless  have  known  with  some  degree  of  certainty 
ere  this,  of  which  of  the  many  Barclay  families  of  England  and 
Scotland  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay  of  Albany  was  a  member.  With- 
out feeling  at  all  committed  to  the  point  of  view,  Dr.  Barclay  in- 
clined somewhat  to  the  belief  that  Rev.  Thomas  was  a  son  of  Sir 
Robert  Barclay  of  Pierston,  Ayrshire,  Knt,  who  was  created 
baronet  of  Nova  Scotia  on  October  22,  1668.^  While  the  fact 
that  Rev.  Thomas  matriculated  at  St.  Andrews  in  Fifeshire  might 
seem  to  militate  in  some  degree  against  this  theory,  yet  the  simi- 
larity (out  of  all  the  recorded  Barclay  arms)  of  the  arms  of  the 
Barclays  of  Pierston  to  those  which  have  come  down  to  the 
descendants  of  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay  of  Albany,  is  the  ground 
upon  which  Dr.  DeLancey  H.  Barclay  was  inclined  to  rest  his 
belief  that  Rev.  Thomas  was  possibly,  if  not  probably,  of  the 
Pierston  family.  The  differing  characteristics  of  the  arms  of  the 
Barclays  of  Mather  and  Ury  and  those  of  the  Barclays  of  Piers- 
ton, are  pointed  out  in  Appendix  D  hereunto  annexed. 

One  or  two  letters  written  by  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay,  or  by 
his  wife,  to  the  Society  for  the  Propagation  of  the  Gospel  and 
sundry  extracts  from  the  records  of  the  Society  in  London,^ 
serve  to  correct  two  other  errors  which  are  generally  accepted  as 
a  part  of  the  "family  tradition," — the  one  as  to  the  date  of  Rev. 
Thomas  Barclay's  death  and  the  other  as  to  the  number  of  his 
children.

44  A  Mistaken  Tradition. 


It  has  been  generally  assumed,  and  published,  that  Rev. 
Thomas  Barclay  died  in  the  year  1722  and  had  but  three  children, 
— Thomas,  Henry  and  Andrew;  but  the  letters  quoted  below 
make  it  clear  that  he  had  not  only  three  but  four  children,  and 
that  he  was  living  as  late  as  1725  and  possibly  in  1726.  The 
fourth  son  was  undoubtedly  John  Barclay,  Mayor  of  Albany  from 
1777  to  1778,  who,  unlike  the  rest  of  his  family,  was  a  steadfast 
patriot  throughout  the  Revolutionary  struggle.  Further  refer- 
ence will  be  made  to  him  in  Part  V  below. 

The  letters  to  be  quoted  hereafter  show  that  the  closing  years 
of  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay's  life  were  darkened  by  a  mental  afflic- 
tion so  grave  as  to  render  necessary  actual  physical  restraint,  and 
further  show,  what  is  of  particular  interest  in  connection  with  the 
matters  now  under  search,  that  as  late  as  171 9  Rev.  Thomas  had 
a  sister  living  in  England  who  held  his  power  of  attorney  for  the 
collection  of  the  yearly  stipend  due  him  from  the  Crown  for  his 
services  as  chaplain  of  the  garrison  at  Albany.  This  sister's 
name,  most  unfortunately,  was  not  mentioned  in  the  letters,  and 
an  examination  of  the  records^  of  the  English  War  Department, 
through  which  the  stipend  was  paid,  has  failed  to  disclose  it ;  still 
the  fact  that  he  had  a  sister  has  played  no  part  whatsoever  in  the 
tradition  which  has  regarded  Rev.  Thomas  as  the  son  of  John 
Barclay  of  East  New  Jersey,  and  affords  some  further  proof  in 
support  of  our  charge  that  the  tradition  is  a  false  one. 

Another  circumstance  militating  in  some  degree  against  the 
accuracy  of  the  tradition,  is  the  fact  that  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay's 
speech  was  strongly  Scotch.  In  a  letter  written  to  the  Bishop  of 
London  by  W.  Bennett  (probably  an  officer  of  the  garrison  at 
Albany),  dated  at  New  York  June  24th,  1726,  wherein  he  asks 
that  a  missionary  be  sent  to  Albany,  he  suggests  that  the  clergy- 
man selected  be  an  Englishman  as  "Mr.  Barclay,  the  late  minister, 
spoke  so  broad  Scotch  that  it  was  difficult  to  understand  him."^ 

Until  1716,  Mr.  Barclay  received  from  the  Crown  £50  yearly 
for  his  services  as  chaplain  to  the  garrison  at  Albany,  and  from 
the  Society  for  the  Propagation  of  the  Gospel  another  £50  per 
annum  for  his  services  as  missionary  and  catechist  at  Albany  and

at  Schenectady.  For  some  now  unknown  reason, — possibly 
through  the  influence  of  those  whose  enmity  Mr.  Barclay  had 
incurred, — the  allowance  by  the  Society  was  suddenly  discon- 
tinued, as  is  shown  by  the  following  extract  from  the  Society's 
records : 

"Stli  March   1716 

"Agreed  to  by  the  Society  that  Mr.  Barclay  at  Albany  his  salary  be 
withdrawn  he  having  fifty  pounds  p.  ann.  allowed  him  by  the  Crown." 

In  an  "Account  of  the  Society  for  the  Propagation  of  the 
Gospel"  published  by  Rev.  Dr.  Humphrey  in  1730  in  London, — 
an  almost  contemporaneous  record, — it  was  said : 

"It  was  represented  to  the  Society,  that  since  Mr.  Barclay  had  a 
salary  as  chaplain  to  the  garrison  at  Albany,  that,  with  the  voluntary  con- 
tributions of  the  people  who  came  to  the  new  church,  would  be  a  suf- 
ficient maintenance;  the   Society  therefore   withdrew  his   salary." (*) 

The  withdrawal  of  this  stipend,  with  the  consequent  financial 
embarrassment,  seems  to  have  been  the  first  of  the  troubles  which 
overwhelmed  Mr.  Barclay  and  finally  resulted  in  the  loss  of  his 
mind. 

In  the  Journal  of  the  Society  for  the  Propagation  of  the 
Gospel,  the  following  entry  appears  under  date  of  December  5th, 
1718: 

"It  was  reported  from  the  Committee  that  they  had  read  three  Let- 
ters from  Mr.  Barclay  dated  Albany  June  28th,  and  October  the  29th  1717 
and  June  the  2nd  1718.  Importing  that  in  August  1716  he  received  the 
Society's  Resolve  that  his  salary  should  be  withdrawn  after  the  6th  of 
March  1716/7.  That  as  Chaplain  to  the  Garrison  of  Albany  he  hath 
had  a  Pension  of  fifty  pounds  p.  ann.  from  the  25th  of  March,  1707,  which 
provision  being  so  scanty  in  that  dear  Place  the  late  Bishop  of  London 
did  obtain  from  the  Society  an  allowance  of  fifty  pounds  more  yearly 
as  their  Missionary  and  Catechist  at  Albany  and  Schenectady  which  of- 
fices he  hath  discharged  to  the  best  of  his  Power  by  Catechising  the  youth 
and  bringing  up  many  hundreds  of  them  in  the  Worship  of  the  Church 
of  England;  that  he  formed  the  Congregation  of  the  Mohawk  Indians 
now  the  cure  of  Mr.  Andrews,  and  since  Mr.  Andrews  arrival  has  apply'd 
himself  to  the  Instruction  of  the  Slaves  and  has  at  present  above  40  Cate- 
chumens, 23  of  whom  he  hath  baptized,  that  for  two  years  and  a  half  past 
he  hath  labour'd  in  building  a  Church  which  was  opened  on  the  25th  day 
of  November  last  on  which  day  he  preached  before  a  considerable  audi- 
ence who  gave  a  handsome  offering,  and  the  day  after  the  Soldiers  of  the 
two  Independent  Companies  subscribed  fifty  pounds  towards  building  a 
Gallery,  that  he  is  in  debt  for  building  the  said  Church  225  lbs.  which 
lies  heavy  on  him  having  a  family  of  small  children  and  not  bread  to 
eat.  he  humbly  prays  the  Society  to  take  his  case  into  consideration  and 
to  continue  his  allowance  since  he  has  no  manner  of  support  there  but 
the  Pension  of  Fifty  Pounds  from  the  Crown,  and  so  ill  paid  and  Taxes 


46  A  Mistaken  Tradition. 


deducted  that  he  cannot  possibly  subsist  himself  and  family  on  so  small 
and  uncertain  an  Income.  That  one  half  of  his  allowance  from  the  Gov- 
ernment goes  for  house  rent  and  firewood  and  the  other  part  after  Taxes 
deducted  is  not  sufficient  for  clothing,  so  that  nothing  remains  for  food 
or  the  education  of  his  children,  for  which  reason  and  his  past  services 
he  hopes  the  Society  will  not  leave  him  to  begg  with  his  family  of  small 
children  in  his  old  age  and  declining  years,^'^  having  spent  his  all  in  their 
service.  That  Mr.  Andrews  having  come  to  an  Estate  by  the  death  of 
his  brother  in  Virginia  talks  frequently  of  leaving  his  Mohawk  Indians, 
and  if  that  should  happen  he  offers  to  instruct  those  Indians  for  a  far 
less  allowance  and  take  care  of  his  flock  at  Albany  too,  which  may  be 
easily  done  since  the  Indians  are  very  often  from  home:  desire's  some 
of  the  Society's  Anniversary  Sermons  and  a  few  Common  Prayer  Books, 
and  that,  while  there  is  no  fort  nor  Chapel  among  the  Onondagas,  the  fur- 
niture sent  over  for  that  Nation  (which  is  in  the  Governor's  hands  and 
which  as  he  is  informed  is  at  the  disposal  of  the  Bishop  of  London)  may 
be  lent  to  the  Church  at  Albany  since  it  is  (as  it  were)  the  Cathedral 
Church  of  the  Five  Nations,  they  dayly  flocking  into  it,  where  he  do's 
administer  to  their  Spiritual  necessities  while  at  Albany,  and  has  bap- 
tized several  of  their  children — sometimes  three  on  one  day. 

Whereupon  the  Comm'ee  agreed  to  move  the  Society  to  take  into 
consideration  that  part  of  his  Letter  which  relates  to  the  Instruction  of 
the  Mohawk  and  other  Indians  in  case  Mr.  Andrews  shall  leave  them." 

Under  date  of  May  25th,  1719,  Mr.  Barclay  wrote  to  the 
Secretary  of  the  Society  as  follows : 

"Sir: 

Bv  severall  Letters  I  have  presumed  to  lay  before  the  Venerable  So- 
ciety for  the  Propagation  of  the  Gospel  in  Foreign  Parts,  the  hardships 
I  lye  under  since  that  Illustrious  Board  has  been  pleased  to  withdraw 
their  allowance  of  fifty  pounds  per  ann.  to  me  as  missionary  and  Cate- 
chist  at  Albany,  and  to  none  of  my  Letters  having  the  honour  of  any  an- 
swer; Once  more  I  beg  leave  with  all  due  deference,  to  mention  only 
my  present  circumstances  which  cry  aloud  for  relief.  If  want  of  bread 
for  self  and  Family  (having  had  but  42  lbs.  sterling  in  two  years)  in  a 
remote  corner  of  the  World  where  I  have  no  manner  of  Establishment 
or  perquisite  may  plead  for  me:  Besides  a  heavy  load  of _  Church  Debt; 
I  shall  groan  under  being  last  Winter  thrice  arrested  within  the  space  of 
one  month,  obliged  to  give  what  little  money  I  had  by  me  (to  pay  for 
my  winter  provisions)  to  Lawyers  for  defending  me  from  close  Imprison- 
ment (tho  the  debt  was  none  of  those  I  stood  engaged  for)  add  to  this 
the  want  of  money  to  pay  my  House  Rent  at  that  very  time,  though  I 
was  not  indebted  above  two  quarters  Rent  Yet  my  Landlord  feed  a 
Lawyer  against  me,  and  with  Difficulty  could  I  obtain  a  month's  respite, 
and  tho'  on  the  2nd  day  of  February  I  paid  the  next  Quarter's  Rent,  yet 
on  the  fifth  day  of  May  I  had  a  fresh  threatening,  and  that  but  for  one 
quarter,  and  that  at  a  time  when  I  had  not  one  sixpence  to  buy  bread  for 
my  farnily,  too  little  credit  can  a  minister  have  from  his  Landlord  here; 
Though  the  same  person  who  was  at  that  time  my  Church  Warden  and 
has  had  97  pounds  10  shillings  of  house  Rent  from  me  from  August,  1709 : 
to  May  last.     This  is  owing  to  the  withdrawing  of  my  salary  from  the 


7N.  B.— John  Barclay  of  East  New  Jersey,  whom  the  "tradition"  regards  as  the 
father  of  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay,  was  59  years  of  age  in  1718.  Is  it  probable  that  the 
son  was  "in  his  old  age  and  declining  years,"  when  the  father  was  but  S9?

due  to  me  from  the  Government;  add  to  this  a  Loss  I  sustained  of  62 
lbs.  10  s.  sterling  of  the  same  money  from  March  25th,  1709  to  Midsum- 
mer,  1710  by  the  Fraud  of  my  then  attorney;   I   have  had   some  other 
Losses  besides  these  mentioned  and  what  the  Church  is  indebted  to  me 
which  is  to  the  value  of  50  lbs.  and  upwards  New  York  money,  this  is 
over  and  above  my  own  Benefaction  of  which  my  wife's  before :  and  all 
my   Travelling   charges   and   Voyages   to   New   York   on   the   Account   of 
building  the  Church.     I  might  further  enlarge  on  this  melancholy  subject 
by  telling  of  the  sighs  and  tears  of  my  poor   wife,   who  while   in  her 
Mother's  house  neither  saw  nor  felt  want;  the  upbraiding  of  some  of  her 
Relations ;   The  bitter   sarcasms   and  bitter  Taunts  of  others  who  want 
neither  power  nor  money  to   supply  my  wants  by  themselves  or  others 
(especially  as   to   the   Church   Debts)    and  tell  me  that  prayer  will  not 
doe  it :  when,  alas,  I  have  no  means  left  but  tears :  for  I  am  not  bred  to  any 
manual  operation  (tho'  I  often  wish  I  had)  that  may  help  me  to  support 
my  family,  willingly  would  I  labour  three  days  a  week  rather  than  to  owe 
any  man  one  half  penny.  And  tho'  I  groan  under  a  Double  Debt  at  pres- 
ent both  for  the  Church  and  the  support  of  my  Family,  yet  I  have  this 
comfort  I  was  led  into  both  through  necessity  and  no  bad  Husbandry. 
And  it  is  a  known  truth  at  Albany  that  had  the  intire  management  of  the 
Building  your  Church  been  in  my  hands,  the  Fund  contributed  had  been 
more  than  enough  for  that  work,  but  others  being  joyn'd  with  me,  and  I 
being  obliged  to  Travel   severall  times  to  New   York  for  removing  the 
stop  illegally  put  to  that  work,  and  that  in  the  King's  name  by  4  Jus- 
tices, as  well  as  for  gathering  subscriptions ;  stones  new  wrought  in  my 
absence    to    the    value    of    an    hundred    pounds   for  the   Beautifying  the 
Fabrick,  tho'  the  guift  of  his  Excellency  our  governor,  out  of  the  King's 
stores  at  Albany  was  sufficient  for  Finishing  the  Work.     The  payment  of 
the   workmen  during  the  aforesaid   stop   for  three  week's   time  did  like- 
wise   increase    the   charges,    and   lastly,    the    makeing    of    four   thousand 
Bricks  for  the  Beautifying  the  windows  and  the  Gavel   Ends,  and  after 
the  work  was  little  more  than  half  finished   I   was  left  by  the  Under- 
takers when  the  Subscriptions  at  that  time  did  amount  to  about  six  hun- 
dred pounds,  and  five  hundred  of  the  six  expended  and  the  Church  in 
Debt  to  the  Value  of  the  whole  and  when  I  undertook  the  sole  Burthen 
upon  myself  on  the  twelfth  of  June  1716  the  most  of  the  workmen  volun- 
tarily offered  themselves,  soe  that  though  I  suffer  now  a  Fraud  cannot  be 
charged  on  me,   Since  it    (is)   well  known  that  the  Fund  was  exhausted 
and  I  did  Build  upon  Providence  and  upon  the  expectation  of  assistance 
from   Commissary   Vesey   and    Mr.    Tenney,   the    Flower   of   the   English 
Congregation  at  New  York  not  having  contributed  thereto. 

"The  Reverend  Mr.  Vesey  turned  over  that  trouble  on  his  then 
Reverend  Assistant,  and  the  Reverend  Mr.  Tenney  excused  himself  first 
by  the  Loss  he  might  sustain  as  to  his  own  Yearly  Subscription  from  the 
Congregation  and  since  he  had  the  Chaplainship  of  the  Forces,  he  alledges 
want  of  leisure,  and  that  it  would  ruin  his  school,  the  last  gave  a  bene- 
faction of  50  shillings,  the  first  nothing,  this  I  can  make  evident  by  both 
your  Letters.  I  must  own  that  Mr.  Commissary  did  warmly  urge  Mr 
Tenney  to  collect  for  the  payment  of  the  Debts  of  our  Church  tho'  in 
vain,  but  enough  of  this  which  I  only  mention  in  my  own  Defence,  for 
I  did  conceal  from  our  people  at  Albany  as  much  as  I  could  possible  their 
coldness  (I  speak  the  Truth  to  my  Grief)  and  if  I  have  been  too  tedious 
on  this  ungrateful  subject  give  me  leave  to  say  that  nothing  but  the  ex-

tremity  of  want  could  have  extorted  this  from  me.  I  shall  not  mention 
one  word  of  my  Labours  during  my  Eleven  years  ministration  at  Albany 
only  that  to  magure"^*)  all  Difficulties  I  slacken  not  my  Diligence,  twenty- 
eight  slaves  I  have  Baptized  new  ;  and  am  at  present  employed  in  cate- 
chising the  Youth,  and  in  Founding  a  Latin  School,  and  near  30  white 
children  have  I  Baptized  the  last  half  year,  one  Indian  Child  of  ten  years 
of  age  and  one  of  a  year  old :  I  say  I  am  at  present  employed  in  gathering 
of  a  Latin  school  for  one  Mr.  Willson  who  arrived  here  last  November 
from  Ireland,  a  man  of  sober  conversation  and  has  a  competent  skill  in 
the  Latin  and  Greek  Tongues.  There  are  about  Seventy  Children  that 
attend  at  the  prayers  of  the  Church  and  are  Catechised.  I  hope  the 
Venerable  Society  will  not  be  offended  at  this  Trouble  which  my  pinching 
wants  have  forced  me  to.  And  whenever  that  Venerable  Board  shall  be 
pleased  to  signifie  to  me  by  their  Secretary  to  desist  and  forbear  the 
giving  any  further  Trouble,  as  in  Duty  bound  I  shall  submit  being  well 
aware  That  the  Society  knows  best  what  I  doe  deserve  or  what  is 
proper  to  give  to  one  in  my  circumstances.  And  whatever  the  Issue  may 
be  I  hope  I  shall  never  while  I  breathe  (cease)  to  have  a  thankful  sense 
of  former  favours  and  heartily  pray  that  God  may  prosper  their  Handy- 
work,  and  Bountifully  Reward  their  good  Works.  And  being  they  have 
been  so  Instrumentall  in  turning  many  unto  Righteousness  may  they 
shine  as  bright  Starrs  for  ever  and  ever. 

"S'rs  I  earnestly  beg  an  answer  to  this  for  I  have  had  none  to  any 
of  my  Letters  since  the  withdrawing  of  my  Mission  Nov.  6th. 

"When  I  undertook  to  finish  the  Church,  of  the  six  hundred  pounds 
subscription  money  five  hundred  pounds  was  laid  out  upon  the  work  and 
a  Debt  to  the  Value  of  the  hundred  pounds  not  paid  in.

So  far  as  the  records  of  the  Society  show,  this  letter,  though 
received,  was  in  no  wise  acted  upon ;  and  under  date  of  June  13th, 
1721,  Mr.  Barcla}^  again  wrote  the  Society  as  follows:

which  I  have  from  ye  Crown  when  taxes  and  other  dues  are  paid,  does

How  this  appeal  was  received  may  be  gathered  from  the 
following  extract  from  the  Journal  of  the  Society  recorded  under 
date  of  August  i8th,  1721 : 

"Read  a  letter  from  the  Rev.  Mr.  Barclay  at  Albany  dated  the  13th 
of  June  last  setting  forth  his  present  hard  circumstances  and  praying 
to  be  restored  to  his  former  salary.  Agreed  that  Mr.  Barclay  remove 
either  to  Rye  or  Jamaica  in  New  York  Government  which  shall  be  vacant, 
with  a  salary  of  fifty  pounds  p.  annum  if  he  shall  think  fit:  and  in  con- 
sideration of  his  very  hard  circumstances  that  Ten  pounds  be  given  him 
for  his  present  Relief." 

The  letter  of  June  13th,  1721,  was  the  last  that  Mr.  Barclay 
wrote.  Under  date  of  May  22.,  1722,  his  wife  wrote  the  Society 
as  follows : 

"Hon'ble  Gentlemen 

"Whilst  it  pleaseth  Almighty  God  to  suffer  my  husband  Mr.  Thos. 
Barclay  to  be  taken  from  his  family,  I  his  Espouse  presume  in  his  behalf 
to  acknowledge  the  Receipt  of  your  hon'es  by  a  Letter  from  Mr.  Secretary 
Umphreys  dated  ye  5th  of  Sept.  last  whereby  your  Honors  signifie  your 
having  received  him  to  be  your  Missionary  and  have  appointed  him  the 
Choice  of  removing  either  to  Rye  or  Jamaica  in  New  York  Government 
which  shall  be  vacant  with  an  alowance  of  50  lbs.  for  his  salary  a  year

Consideracons  be  such  as  to  order  him  10  lbs.  for  his  pres't  Relief  I

Your  Honors  most  humble  Serv't 

Anna  Dorotea  Barclay." 

This  appeal  dated  May  22nd,  1722,  was  laid  before  a  Com- 
mittee of  the  Society  at  a  meeting  thereof  held  on  February  13th, 
1723,  as  the  following  extract  from  its  records  shows: 

"Read  a  letter  from  Mrs.  Barclay  dated  Albany,  22nd  of  May, 
1722.  And  another  from  the  clergy  of  New  York  &c.  dated  July  5th, 
1722  setting  forth  the  deplorable  circumstances  of  the  Rev.  Mr.  Barclay 
(formerly  a  Missionai-y  from  the  Society  at  Albany)  and  his  poor  fam- 
ily: that  he  hath  been  all  along  diligent  in  his  cure,  and  has  taken  great 
pains  in  catechising  the  Indian  Infidels  in  a  place  where  they  are  very 
numerous,  but  that  of  late  the  many  misfortunes  which  have  succes- 
sively attended  him  have  brought  him  to  an  outrageous  distraction  such 
as  has  obliged  his  friends  to  confine  him  to  a  dark  room,  and  in  the 
mean  time  the  small  salary  which  the  Governm"t  in  England  allow'd  him 
not  being  paid;  his  family  (a  wife  and  four  children)  are  reduced  to 
extreme  Poverty ;  and  praying  the  Society  to  consider  the  deplorable 
condition  he  and  his  family  are  reduced  to,  in  such  manner  as  shall  seem 
most  effectual  for  their  relief.  Whereupon  the  Committee  agreed  that  his 
case  be  recommended  to  the  Society  as  a  matter  of  compassion,  and  that 
they  be  moved  to  make  him  such  a  Gratuity  as  they  shall  think  proper. 
Agreed  that  this  matter  shall  be  considered  at  the  next  meeting  of  the 
Society." 

The  "relief"  so  urgently  needed  and  prayed  for  was  finally 
granted  by  the  Society  at  its  meetings  of  March  21st,  IJ27,,  and 
April  26th,  172^,  as  is  shown  by  the  following  extracts  from  the 
Society's  Journal : 

"21st  March  1723.  The  Society  took  into  consideration  the  case  of  the 
Rev'd  Mr.  Barclay  mentioned  in  the  Minutes  of  the  last  Meeting  and 
Agreed  that  Ten  pounds  be  given  him  for  his  present  relief. 
"26th  of  April,  1723.  Upon  reading  the  Report  of  the  Committee  repre- 
senting the  case  of  the  Rev.  Mr.  Barclay :  Agreed  by  the  Society  that  he 
be  allow'd  twenty  pounds  more." 

The  remaining  entries  touching  this  matter  in  the  Society's 
Journal,  which  have  come  to  the  notice  of  the  writer,  are  the 
following : 

"17th  July  1724 :  Read  a  letter  from  Mrs.  Dorothea  Barclay,  wife  of 
the  Rev.  Mr.  Barclay  thanking  the  Society  for  their  charitable  gratuity 
to  her  in  consideration  of  the  deplorable  condition  of  her  husband  late 
the  Society's  Missionary,  and  praying  for  a  further  allowance  during 
his  continuing  in  his  present  state ;  and  Agreed  to  referr  the  consider- 
ation thereof  to  the  Society.     Ordered  that  the   Secretary  make  enquiry 


Records   in   London.  51 


whether  the  fifty  pounds  per  annum  formerly  allow'd  to  the  Rev.  Mr. 
Barclay  by  the  Crown  be  still  continued  and  paid  to  him." 
"21st  August  1724:  The  Secretary  acquainted  the  Board  that  in  pursu- 
ance of  the  Order  at  last  Meeting  he  has  made  enquiry  and  finds  that 
the  salary  of  Fifty  pounds  p.  annum  formerly  allowed  to  the  Rev.  Mr. 
Barclay  by  the  Crown  is  still  continued  and  paid  to  him." 

That  Mr.  Barclay  was  living  as  late  as  July  7,  1725,  is  evi- 
dent from  a  letter  written  from  New  York  under  that  date  to 
the  Bishop  of  London  by  W-  Bennett,  already  referred  to,  in 
which  he  said : 

"Mr.  Barclay,  the  minister  of  the  English  Church  at  Albany  in  this 
Province,  had  the  mistfortune  to  lose  his  senses  about  four  years  ago 
and  continues  yet  in  the  same  unhappy  condition.  His  congregation  have 
waited  this  long  in  hopes  of  his  recovery  but  finding  no  reason  to  expect 
it  they  are  now  very  desirous  of  a  missionary." W 

Whether  or  not  Mr.  Barclay  was  living  as  late  as  1726  may 
or  may  not  be  inferred  from  the  following  extract  from  the 
Journal  of  the  General  Assembly  of  New  York : 

"October  28,  1726 
Afternoon   Session 

"The  Deputy  Clerk  of  the  Council,  laid  before  this  House,  the  Peti- 
tion of  Anna  Dorothy  Barclay  of  the  City  of  Albany,  to  His  Excellency, 
the  Council,  and  the  General  Assembly  setting  forth, 

"That  by  Order  of  the  Lord  Cornbury,  the  Commissioners  of  Indian 
Affairs  placed  Michael,  the  Son  of  Montour,  an  Indian  (who  was  sent 
to  fetch  and  bring  far  Indians  to  Albany)  at  Mr  Barclay's  house,  where 
he  was  maintained  and  provided  for  from  the  15th  of  August,  1708,  until 
the  nth  of  March,  1712/13; 

"Praying  it  may  be  taken  into  Consideration  so  as  that  she  may  be 
satisfied  for  the  same, 

"Which,  having  been  read  in  Council,  was  ordered  to  be  carried  to 
this  House,  and  acquaint  them  that  the  Demand  of  the  Petitioner  ap- 
peared to  His  Excellency  and  Council  to  be  just,  and  therefore  was 
recommended  by  His  Excellency,  to  make  provision  for  satisfying  the 
said  Demand; 

And  the  same  being  read,  it  was 

Ordered,  That  the  said  Petition  lie  on  the  Table." 

Rev.  Thomas  Barclay  had  (subsequently  to  his  arrival  in 
Albany  in  1708)  married  Anna  Dorothea,  daughter  of  Captain^ 
Andries  Drauyer  (a  Dane  by  birth,  serving  in  the  Navy  of  the 
Dutch),  and  Gerritje  Van  Schaick,  his  wife.  It  is  here,  possibly, 
that  the  name  "Van  Schaick"  found  its  way  into  the  family  tradi- 


°In  the  Annals  of  Albany,  Annals  op  Schenectady,  etc.,  he  is  described  as 
Captain  Drauyer,  although  some  publications  have  called  him  Admiral.  The  former 
rank  seems  the  more  probable. 


52  A   Mistaken  Tradition. 

tion.  The  grandmother  of  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay's  children,  on 
their  mother's  side,  was  a  Van  Schaick ;  and  it  is  not  difficult  to 
imagine  that  in  later  years  the  Van  Schaick  connection  might 
carelessly  have  come  to  be  regarded  as  on  the  father's  side  in- 
stead of  on  the  mother's.  It  would  indeed  have  been  odd  had 
the  mother  of  Rev.  Thomas  and  the  mother  of  his  wife  both  been 
Van  Schaicks,  and  yet  no  record  of  the  coincidence  have  been 
noted  through  all  these  years. 

Gerritje  Van  Schaick  was  the  daughter  of  Capt.  Goosen 
Gerritse  Van  Schaick  by  his  second  wife,  Annatje  Lievens.  Ger- 
ritje was  born  in  1657  and  married  Andries  Drauyer  on  January 
17th,  1674.1'^ 

On  March  2nd,  1699,  Gerritje  Van  Schaick,  wife  of  Andries 
Drauyer,  joined  the  Dutch  Church  in  New  York  on  certificate 
from  Copenhagen,  and  on  the  same  day  her  husband,  described 
on  the  Church  records  (if  the  English  translation  be  correct)  as 
"Rear  Admiral  of  the  King's  fleet  of  Denmark  and  Norway," 
joined  on  a  similar  certificate.  On  February  28th,  1700,  Johanna 
Dorothea  Drauyer,  presumably  the  future  wife  of  Rev.  Thomas 
Barclay  of  Albany,  likewise  joined  the  Dutch  Church  in  New 
York,  upon  confession  of  faith  and  belief.^^

PART    IV. 


The  Line  of  Descent  from  John  Barclay  of  East  New  Jersey. 

JOHN  BARCLAY,  second  son  of  Col.  David  Barclay  of  Ury 
and  brother  of  the  apologist,  died  intestate,  as  we  have  seen, 
in  1731  at  Perth  Amboy,  East  New  Jersey;  and  administra- 
tion on  his  estate  was  granted  to  William  Bradford, — "Jo^^ 
"  Barclay,  his  son  and  heir  having  requested  administration  should 
"  be  granted  under  his  hand  unto  the  said  William  Bradford."'' 

The  William  Bradford  here  referred  to  was  undoubtedly  the 
well-known  printer  who  was  at  that  time  a  resident  of  Phila- 
delphia. 

The  following  notices  of  John  Barclay's  death  appeared  in 
The:  Boston  Weekly  News  Letter  of  May  6,  1731,  and  in  The 
Pennsylvania  Gazette  of  April  29,  1731  :^ 

From  The  Boston  Weekly  News  Letter. 

"Philadelphia,  April  29.  Last  week  died  at  Amboy,  John  Barclay, 
Esq.,  in  an  advanced  Age,  a  pious  man,  an  excellent  Neighbor,  and  of 
very  great  Service  to  the  Publick,  but  more  particularly  where  he  lived,

From  The  Pennsylvania  Gazette. 

"Philadelphia  April  29,  From  Amboy  we  hear  that  last  Week  died  Mr. 
John  Barclay,  Post  master  there.  He  was  Brother  to  the  famous  Robert 
Barclay." 

John  Barclay's  wife,  Katharine  Barclay,  had  died  and  been 
buried  at  Perth  Amboy  on  January  6,  1703,  as  appears  from  the 
following  entry  on  the  records  of  St.  Mary's  Church  at  Burling- 
ton, West  New  Jersey: 

"Buried  at  Amboy  N.  J.  by  John  Talbot

That  she  died  on  the  same  day  is  to  be  inferred,  as  it  seems 
to  the  writer,  from  the  following  further  entry  on  the  same 
records : 

"B<!ptized  at  Amboy  N.  J.  by  John  Talbot 
Jan.   6,    1703 — Catherine  Barclay" 

The  probabilities,  in  the  writer's  judgment,  are  that  the 
Catherine  Barclay  who  was  baptized  by  Mr.  Talbot  on  January 
6,  1703,  was  the  same  Catherine  Barclay  whose  burial  is  recorded 
as  above.  The  apparently  unseemly  haste  of  burying  a  convert 
on  the  very  day  of  her  baptism,  militates  somewhat  against  such 
view ;  yet  it  is  not  at  all  impossible  that  the  rites  of  baptism 
were  administered  to  Catherine  Barclay  just  prior  to  death 
and  that  the  funeral  was  arranged  for  the  same  day  while 
Mr.  Talbot  was  still  in  Amboy,  for  the  probable  reason  that 
no  other  clergyman  of  the  English  Church  was  near  at  hand 
or  likely  soon  to  be  after  Mr.  Talbot  should  have  proceeded  on 
his  way.  Moreover,  John  Barclay,  the  son,  was  anywheres  from 
a  day  to  twelve  months  old  when  his  mother  died,'^  and  while  it 


cPrior  to  1752,  the  year  was  regarded  in  England  as  commencing  on  March 
25th.  Occurrences  of  the  period  between  January  ist  and  March  2Sth,  therefore, 
were  sometimes  noted  with  mention  of  both  the  years  in  order  to  avoid  the  chance  of 
mistake  where  it  was  not  apparent  to  which  of  the  calendar  years  the  writer  was  re- 
ferring. For  example  the  burial  of  Katharine  Barclay  would  more  properly  have 
been  recorded  as  having  taken  place  on  January  6th,  1702/3.  And  so  it  is  possible 
that  John  Barclay,  the  son, — whose  birth  is  known  to  have  occurred  in  "1702," — 
may  have  been  born  even  in  the  eleventh  month  of  that  year,  according  to  the  old 
system;  and  that  would  mean  that  he  was  born  in  January,  1703,  according  to  the  new 
system. 

The  confusion  out  of  which  the  Gregorian  or  present  calendar  was  evolved,  may 
be  partially  realized  from  the  following  brief  historical  summary  which  is  taken  almost 
wholly  from  the  Encyclopedia  Britannica. 

The  earliest  known  Roman  year  consisted  of  ten  months,  or  304  days  in  all. 
How  the  remaining  days  were  disposed  of  is  not  known.  The  year  commenced  with 
March,  and  the  present  months  of  July  and  August  were  known  as  Quintilis  and 
Sextiles.  In  the  reign  of  Numa  two  months  were  added  to  the  year, — January  at  the 
beginning  and  February  at  the  end, — and  this  arrangement  continued  until  452  B.  C, 
when  the  order  of  the  months  was  changed  and  February  was  placed  after  January. 
The  months  now  consisted  of  twenty-nine  and  thirty  days  alternately,  so  that  the 
year,  354  days  in  all,  corresponded  with  the  synodic  revolution  of  the  moon.  An  odd 
number  of  days,  however,  were  deemed  more  propitious  than  an  even  number,  so  an 
extra  day  was  added  and  the  number  brought  up  to  355  days. 

Something  more  than  ten  days  was  still  needed  to  make  the  calendar  year  coin- 
cident with  the  solar  year,  so  the  device  was  adopted  of  inserting,  every  second  year, 
between  the  23rd  and  24th  of  February,  a  new  month  known  as  Mcrcedonius  consist- 
ing, alternately,  of  twenty-two  and  twenty-three  days.  A  period  of  four  years  would 
thus  contain  1,465  days,  making  the  mean  length  of  the  year  36654  days.  To  rid  the 
calendar  of  this  extra  day,   various   devices  were   resorted  to   which   finally   resulted  in 


John  Barclay  of  East  New  Jersey.  55 

is  possible,  it  seems  hardly  probable  that  the  birth  of  another 
child,  of  a  daughter  Catherine,  should  have  followed  his  so 
closely  and  that  she  only  and  not  both  he  and  she  should  have 


the  intercalation  of  the  necessary  number  of  days  being  left  to  the  discretion  of  the 
pontiffs  to  whom  the  care  of  the  calendar  was  committed;  and  they  in  turn  quickly 
abused  the  power  for  political  ends.  By  giving  to  the  intercalary  month  a  greater  or 
less  number  of  days,  according  to  their  whim,  the  pontiffs  were  enabled  to  prolong 
the  term  of  a  magistracy  or  hasten  the  annual  elections;  and  by  the  time  of  Julius 
Caesar  the  calendar  had  been  thrown  into  such  confusion  that  the  civil  equinox  dif- 
fered from  the  astronomical  equinox  by  fully  three  months,  so  that  the  winter  months 
were  carried  back  into  autumn  and  the  autumnal  months  into  summer. 

To  put  an  end  to  these  disorders,  Caesar  abolished  the  use  of  the  lunar  year  and 
of  the  intercalary  months,  and  decreed  that  the  civil  year  should  be  coincident  with 
the  solar  year,  and  should  consist  of  36554  days,  ordaining  that  every  fourth  year 
should  have  366  days,  and  the  others  365.  The  process  of  change  from  the  one 
calendar  to  the  other  resulted  in  a  year  of  445  days  known  as  "the  last  year  of  con- 
fusion" and  the  first  Julian  year  commenced  in  46   B.   C. 

The  year  under  this  system  consisted  of  twelve  months,  the  name  Quintilis  being 
changed  to  "July,"  out  of  compliment  to  Julius  Caesar.  The  odd  months, — first, 
third,  fifth,  etc., — were  given  31  days  each,  and  the  even  months  30  days  each,  except- 
ing February,  which  in  common  years  was  given  29  and  in  every  fourth  year  30  days. 
But  when  the  name  of  the  month  Sextiles  was  subsequently  changed  to  "August," 
out  of  compliment  to  Caesar  Augustus,  the  vanity  of  that  monarch  would  not  suffer 
such  month  to  have  a  lesser  number  of  days  than  the  month  named  in  honor  of  his 
predecessor  Julius  Caesar,  and  the  calendar  was  accordingly  changed  once  more  so  as 
to  give  August  thirty-one  instead  of  thirty  days, — the  day  thus  added  being  taken 
from  February.  This,  however,  brought  into  succession  three  months  of  thirty-one 
days  each,  a  result  so  little  to  be  desired  that  September  and  November  were  sum- 
marily reduced  to  thirty  days  each  and  October  and  December  increased  to  thirty-one. 
The  calendar  year  was  still  too  long  by  one  one-hundred-and-twenty-eighth  part 
of  a  day,  so  that  by  A.  D.  1582  the  vernal  equinox  had  retrograded  from  the  25th  of 
March  to  the  nth.  Gregory  XIII  sought  permanently  to  correct  this  error,  and 
directed  that  ten  days  should  be  altogether  suppressed  in  the  then  existing  calendar, 
and  that  thenceforward  each  year  of  which  the  number  was  divisible  by  four  without 
a  remainder  should  be  a  leap  year,  excepting  the  centurial  years;  and  that  the  cen- 
turial  years  should  be  leap  years  when  divisible  by  four  after  omitting  the  two  ciphers. 
Thus,  1600  was  a  leap  year;  but  1700,  1800  and  1900  were  common  years,  while  2000, 
in  turn,  will  be  a  leap  year, — and  so  on. 

The  introduction  into  Great  Britain  of  the  Gregorian  Calendar,  or  "New  Style," 
as  it  was  called,  was  for  a  long  time  successfully  opposed  by  popular  prejudice;  but 
the  inconvenience  of  using  a  different  system  from  that  already  in  use  in  the  greater 
part  of  Europe  gradually  made  itself  felt,  and  in  1751  the  "New  Style"  was  adopted 
by  Act  of  Parliament  for  all  public  and  legal  transactions.  It  was  provided  in  the 
Act  that  the  day  following  September  2,  1752,  should  be  accounted  the  14th  of  that 
month,  and  the  commencement  of  the  legal  year  was  changed  from  the  zsth  of  March 
to  the  1st  of  January. 

In  Scotland  the  new  style  had  been  in  use  since  the  beginning  of  1600, — a  fact 
to  be  remembered  in  connection  with  the  Scottish  records  of  events  between  that 
period  and  1751. 

Russia  is  the  only  country  in  which  the  Julian  Calendar  or  "Old  Style"  is  still 
employed.  A  letter  addressed  in  Russia  to  a  correspondent  in  another  country  should 
be  dated  in  both  styles,   in  order  to  be  at  once  intelligible,  as  for  example,  August  i  „°

been  baptized,  and  that,  too,  on  the  day  of  their  mother's  funeral. 
John  Barclay,  the  husband,  as  we  saw  above,  had  identified  him- 
self with  the  Church  of  England  somewhere  between  the  year 
1690  and  the  recorded  visit  to  Amboy  of  George  Keith  in  the 
year  1703 ;  and  it  is  not  unreasonable  to  suppose  that  he  sought 
baptism  for  his  wife  on  her  death-bed  and  the  reading  of  the 
burial  service  by  a  clergyman  of  the  established  church,  while 
there  chanced  to  be  one  still  in  Amboy,  for  the  English  clergy- 
men at  that  time  were  simply  itinerant  through  the  Jerseys,  their 
missionary  work  calling  them  from  place  to  place. 

The  son,  John  Barclay,  lived  in  South  Amboy  throughout  his 
life  and  died  there  the  owner  of  considerable  real  estate.  His 
death  occurred  on  February  i6th,  1786,  when  he  w^as  in  the  84th 
year  of  his  age.*^  This  circumstance  fixes  1702  as  the  year  of  his 
birth;  besides  which,  that  year  is  positively  stated  as  the  year  of 
his  birth  in  the  memo,  made  by  Robert  Barclay  of  Bury  Hill 
in  1774,  for  the  purposes  of  the  family  genealogy,  shown  in  Part 
II  above. 

Mr,  Whitehead,  in  his  "Contributions  to  East  Jersey 
HiSTORy"  (published  in  1856),  says  at  page  43  that  John  Barclay, 
senior,  left  but  one  son  John,  "of  whom  nothing  is  known,  ex- 
cepting that  he  was  alive  in  1768  and  poor."  But  the  records  at 
Trenton  and  at  New  Brunswick  refute  the  charge  of  poverty, 
unless,  indeed,  he  were  "land-poor,"  as  that  term  has  of  late 
years  been  understood. 

The  records  of  the  Old  Tennent  Church  in  Monmouth 
County,  make  frequent  reference  to  the  son,  John  Barclay,  as 
"Capt.  John  Barclay,"  and  state  that  he  was  buried  in  the  old 
Topanemus  Burying  Ground  near  the  present  village  of  Marl- 
borough. He  left  a  will  dated  May  26th,  1782,  which,  with  a 
codicil  thereto  dated  June  9th,  1782,  was  proved  at  New  Bruns- 
wick on  December  24th,  1790,  and  letters  testamentary  were  on 
the  last  mentioned  day  duly  issued  to  his  two  sons  John  and 
Robert.  A  copy  of  the  will  and  of  the  codicil  as  recorded  in 
the  office  of  the  Secretary  of  State  at  Trenton  in  Eiber  30  of 
Wills  at  page  502,  will  be  found  in  Appendix  E  hereunto  annexed. 

It  would  have  been  a  difficult  task  and  quite  beyond  the

Jersey;  but,  in  the  course  of  the  writer's  searches  along  his  own

residence  near  Cranbury,  in  Middlesex  County,  N.  Jersey,  Charles  Barclay  in  the 
80th  year  of  his  age.  He  was  descended  from  the  ancient  and  honorable  family  of 
the  Barclays  of  Ury,  in  Scotland;  he  was  the  grandson  of  John  Barclay,  one  of  the 
proprietors  and  first  governor  of  East  Jersey,  who  was  appointed  to  that  station  and 
came  over  to  this  country  in  1682.  Mr.  Charles  Barclay  was  fourteenth  in  descent

the  reign  of  David  the  ist,  King  of  Scotland,  who  began  to  reign  in  the  year  1124, 
and  was  contemporary  with  Henry  ist  of  England,  son  of  the  Norman  Conqueror. 
This  family  has  for  many  centuries  been  settled  on  the  extensive  estates  of  Mathers

PART  V. 


The  Dublin  Branch  of  the  Barclays  of  Ury. 

ROBERT  BARCLAY  of  Ury,  the  famous  apologist  of  the 
Quakers,  was  born  December  23,  1648,  died  October  3, 
1690,  and  on  February  16,  1669,  married  Christian  Mol- 
lison,  who  died  February  14,  1725.  They  had  nine  children,  of 
whom  the  youngest  was  John  Barclay,  b  October  (i.  e.,  8th  mo.) 
20th,  1687,  who  settled  in  Dublin,  and  became  the  head  of  the 
Dublin  branch  of  the  Barclays  of  Ury. 

In  another  part  of  this  work  the  writer  has  been  enabled, 
through  the  courtesy  of  Robert  Barclay  Allardice,  M.A., 
F.S.A.  (Scot),  Mayor  of  Lostwithiel,  Cornwall,  to  show  a  con- 
siderable portion  of  the  descent  from  Col.  David  Barclay  of  Ury 
and  Lady  Katharine  Gordon,  his  wife  (Part  IX  below). 

The  descent  of  the  Dublin  branch  of  the  Ury  family,  as 
gathered  from  the  public  records  in  Dublin, — for  the  family 
records  at  Bury  Hill  afford  scant  information  of  those  descendants 
of  John  Barclay  who  abjured  the  testimonies  and  faith  of  their 
fathers, — is  as  follows  : 

I.  John  Barclay,  the  fourth  son  and  youngest  child  of  the 
apologist,  h  at  Ury  20th,  8th  mo.,  1687  ;i  d  at  Dublin

ary Road,  Finchley,  London,  N.  W.  This  is  the  only  authority  for  the  alleged  mar- 
riage of  John  Barclay  to  Margaret  Wilson.  In  a  letter  to  the  writer  under  date  of 
December  20,  1900,  Mr.  Foster  stated  that  he  thought  his  authority  for  this  marriage 
was  in  the  Friends'  Register  at  Dublin.     But  in  this  he  was  mistaken.

The  Barclays   of  Ury.  69 

This  marriage,  because  made  outside  of  the  faith,  was 
evidently  disapproved  by  both  of  the  loyal  Quaker  fami- 
lies and  may  possibly  account  for  the  lack  of  interest 
which  the  Ury  family  thereafter  manifested  in  the 
Dublin  branch  of  the  Barclays.  The  following  extract 
from  the  "Testimonies  of  Denial,"  preserved  at  the 
Friends  Meeting  House  in  Eustace  Street,  Dublin  (vol. 
II,  p.  36,  1756-1789),  is  interesting  in  this  connection: 

"Whereas,  John  Barclay  was  educated  in  pro- 
fession with  us,  the  People  called  Quakers,  and  for  some 
time  frequented  our  Religious  Meetings,  but  hath  mani- 
fested too  little  regard  for  the  tender  desires  and  en- 
deavors of  his  Parents  and  Friends  for  his  preservation  in 
a  demeanor  suitable  to  his  profession*^,  and  of  late  hath 
wholly  declined  the  attendance  of  our  Meetings  for  Wor- 
ship ;  and  Moreover 

"Whereas,  He  hath  lately  been  married  to  Ann  Cooper, 
a  young  woman  likewise  of  our  profession,  without  the 
consent  of  her  mother**,  and  contrary  to  the  known  rules 
of  our  Society, 

"We  are  therefore  concerned  to  signify  our  dis- 
unity  with    the    said   John    Barclay    and    Ann,   his    wife, 


and  Anne  Cooper,  to  daughter-in-law  Sarah  Clibborn,  now  Cooper,  wife  of  eldest  son 
Edward  Cooper,  and  to  grandson,  William  Cooper. 

The  sons  Thomas  and  Edward  qualified  as  executors,  and  indicated  that  they  were 
Quakers.

That  John  Barclay's  apostasy  was  not  of  sudden 
growth,  may  be  inferred  from  the  following  extract  from 
the  Friends  Records,  entered  six  years  previously 
("Dublin  Meeting's  Proceedings,"  vol.  II,  p.  64)  : 

"At  a  Men's  Meeting  held  in  Dublin  22,  7  mo,  17SS: 

"The  young  man  repeatedly  mentioned  in  the  Pro- 
ceedings of  this  Meeting  to  have  put  off  his  hat  in  way 
of  salutation,  viz :  John  Barclay  was  frequently 
spoken  to  by  the  Friends  appointed,  who  represented  to 
him  the  inconsistency  of  this  practice  with  our  Profession, 
but  hitherto  without  the  desired  effect. 

"It  was  therefore  thought  necessary  to  make  this 
Record  of  our  care  and  concern  to  discourage  this  practice 
among  us,  contrary  to  the  sentiments  of  Friends  from  the 
beginning,  who  have  ever  deemed  the  uncovering  the  head 
to  be  a  mark  of  divine  honour  or  worship  paid  to  Al- 
mighty God,  and  not  proper  to  be  given  to  mortal  men, 

"And  as  our  faithfull  elders  were  conscienceously  con- 
cerned to  bear  their  Christian  Testimony  against  this  and 
other  instances  of  the  vain  honours  of  this  World, 

"We  being  likeminded  with  them,  do  hereby  signify 
our  DISUNITY  with  him  and  all  such  as  deviate  from 
their  steps  in  these  cases,  as  trampling  upon  that  Christian 
Testimony  we  desire  to  maintain." 

Formal  report  was  made  to  the  Meeting  on  the  5th, 
5  mo.,  1 761,  that  John  Barclay  and  Anne  Cooper  had 
been  married  "by  a  Priest"  ("Dublin  Meeting's  Pro- 
ceedings," vol.  12,  p.  227),  and  on  the  i6th,  6  mo.,  1761, 
the  parties  concerned  made  a  formal  admission  of  the 
report,  and  a  testimony  of  disunity  was  ordered  (ibid, 
p.  233)  ;  on  the  30th,  6  mo.,  1761,  the  testimony  was 
ordered  to  be  shown  them  (ibid,  p.  241)  ;  and  on  the 
22nd,  9  mo.,  1761,  the  testimony  was  signed  (ibid,  p. 
249). 

Marriage  "out  of  Meeting"  was  regarded  as  a 
serious  lapse  among  the  Quakers,  as  the  Proceedings 


The  Barclays  of  Ury. 


of  the  Meeting  frequently  bear  witness,  A  Testimony 
of  Denial,  for  example,  was  entered  against  Abigail 
Jaffray  (a  cousin  of  John  Barclay's),  on  13th,  i  mo., 
1784,  because  of  her  marriage  "by  a  Priest  to  a  Man 
not  of  our  Society"  (vol.  2,  1756-1789,  p.  236)  ;  and  on 
the  30th,  12  mo.,  1784,  a  similar  Denial  was  signed 
against  Catherine  Jaffray,  sister  of  Abigail,  "for  being 
present  at  her  sister's  marriage,"  etc.  {ibid,  p.  236).^^

This  marriage,  too,  seems  to  have  been  the  cause 
of  reHgious  disownment  if  not  of  family  feeling.  At  a 
Men's  Meeting  held  in  Dublin  nth,  6  mo.,  1754,  it  was 
reported  that  Elizabeth  Barclay  and  Joanna  Rooke 
(a  niece  of  her  mother's^o)  had  lately  been  married  "by 
a  priest  to  men  of  another  Society,"  etc.  (Dublin  Meet- 
ing's Proceedings,  vol.  10,  1750-1754,  p.  284),  and  on 
the  25th,  6  mo.,  1754,  "Elisabeth  Scriven  al.  Barclay" 
owned  to  Friends  that  she  had  married  without  her 
mother's  consent  and  intended  to  leave  the  Society  {ibid, 
p.  289).  On  6th,  8  mo.,  1754,  a  paper  "Concerning 
Elizabeth  Scriven"  was  considered  and  directed  to  be 
laid  before  the  Quarterly  Meeting  {ibid,  p.  298),  and 
on  the  20th,  8  mo.,  1754,  the  Quarterly  Meeting's  recom- 
mendation that  such  paper  be  publicly  read  was  duly 
carried  out  {ibid,  p.  303).  The  Testimony  of  Denial 
and  Disownment  is  contained  in  vol.  i  of  "Testimonies 
of  Denials,"  page  525. 

In  the  will  of  her  aunt,  Katherine  Forbes,  dated 
February  15,  1758,^  " Elizabeth  Scriven  al.  Barclay" 
was  given  but  five  shillings,  while  substantial  bequests 
were  made  to  her  brother  John  and  to  her  sisters,  the 
stated  reason  being  that  she  had  married  without  the 
consent  of  the  testatrix. 

On  April  25,  1778,  a  Commission  of  Bankruptcy 
was  issued  against  Edzvard  Scriven  under  the  Great 
Seal  of  Ireland,  and  from  the  papers  in  the  proceedings 
had  thereon  and  in  an  Equity  suit  growing  out  of  the 
same,  considerable  of  the  above  information  has  been 
derived.^  Edward  Scriven  died  May  14,  1794,^^  and 
by  petition  of  his  son,  John  Barclay  Scriven,  as  adminis- 
trator with  the  w^ill  annexed  of  his  estate,  sworn  to  June 
28,   1799,  it  appears  that  the  estate  had  realized  suf- 


clay  Scriven  and  Edward  Scriven  (a  minor),  to  two  unmarried  daughters,  Sarah 
Scriven  and  Elisabeth  Scriven,  and  to  two  sons-in-law,  William  Glasscock  and  John

The  families  of  Barclay,  Strettell,  Cooper,  Forbes  and  Jaflfray 
seem  so  closely  allied  that  the  writer  has  undertaken,  wholly  from 
such  information  as  the  public  records  afford,  to  trace  more  clearly 
the  relationships  between  them.  The  record  he  presents  of  chil- 
dren born  may  be  incomplete ;  but  he  believes  it  to  be  reasonably 
accurate  so  far  as  it  goes. 

The  four  daughters  of  the  apologist,  and  therefore  the  four 
sisters  of  John  Barclay  (senior)  of  Dublin,  married  as  follows: 
Christian  Barclay  married  Alexander  Jaffray  of  King's  Wells,  in 
Aberdeenshire,  Scotland ;  Kaiherine  Barclay  married  James 
Forbes ;  Patience  Barclay  married  Timothy  Forbes ;  and  Jean

that  there  were  no  issue  of  the  marriage.^^  His  widow,  Katherine 
Forbes  al.  Barclay,  died  November  9,  1 758,^8  leaving  a  will  in 
which  she  seemingly  undertook  to  make  a  bequest  to  each  of  her 
then  living  relatives  ;29  and  yet  a  closer  study  of  the  will  shows 
that  some  of  her  kinsfolk  then  living  were  not  named  in  the  will. 


^^Chancery  Bill  filed  April  30,  1759,  by  David  Barclay  of  London  City,  mer- 
chant, William  Alloway  and  Robert  Pettigrew,  both  of  Dublin  City,  merchants,  as 
executors  of  the  will  of  Catherine  Forbes,  of  Dublin  City,  widow  of  James  Forbes,  of 
Dublin  City,  merchant,  against  Joseph  Tomey,  EHinor  Tomey,  Peter  Tomey  and 
Thomas  Constable.  Recites  that  James  Forbes  died  in  1734,  leaving  a  little  less  than 
£7,000,  which  he  bequeathed  to  his  widow;  that  from  1734  to  1751  her  affairs  were  so 
well  managed  by  her  brother,  John  Barclay  of  Dublin  City,  merchant,  that  at  the 
time  of  his  death  her  fortune  had  increased  to  £8,379  well  invested  in  good  securities; 
that  she  died  without  issue  November  9,  1758;  that  she  had  made  a  will  in  1752  after 
her  brother's  death,  but  in  1758  made  another  when  she  was  at  least  80  years  old,  and 
very  much  under  the  influence  of  Joseph  Tomey,  who  was  her  clerk,  and  Ellinor 
Tomey,  who  was  her  menial  servant;  that  both  Joseph  Tomey  and  the  testatrix  were 
Quakers,  and  she  looked  upon  him  "as  a  person  of  great  sanctity;"  that  by  her  will  of 
1752  she  left  him  but  £80,  while  in  the  second  will  she  left  him  more  than  £200,  her 
chaise  and  pair  of  geldings,  &c.,  and  her  furniture,  and  directed  that  if  her  fortune 
should  prove  insufficient  to  pay  all  legacies  in  full,  each  legacy  should  abate  except 
those  to  Joseph  Tomey,  Ellinor  Tomey  and  to  testatrix's  sister  Jane  Forbes;  that  upon 
getting  possession  of  testatrix's  strong  box,  the  executors  found  securities  for  £7,925 
and  cash  for  £68,  and  then  learned  that  she  had  made  a  present  of  £500  to  Ann 
Barclay,  widow  of  her  brother  John  Barclay,  deceased;  and  that  from  her  books  it 
appeared  that  her  expenses  from  1751  to  1755  averaged  yearly  £305:  i:  10,  while  from 
1755  to  1758  they  averaged  £393  :  10  :  o.  The  bill  then  charges  that  Joseph  Tomey 
falsified  the  books  which  were  in  his  charge,  and  embezzled  securities  for  debts  due 
to  testatrix  by  Peter  Tomey  and  by  Thomas  Constable,  and  asks  for  appropriate  re- 
lief.

The  Barclays  of  Ury.  77 

It  would  seem  from  these  wills  that  Timothy  Forbes  had  had  is- 
sue by  a  prior  wife,  but  none  by  his  wife  Patience  Barclay. 

Alexander  Forbes,  who  also  remained  a  Quaker,  was  a 
merchant  of  St.  Margrat  Parish,  Lothbury,  London,  and  does  not 
seem  at  any  time  to  have  resided  in  Dublin.  He  died  May  25, 
1740,  leaving  a  widow,  Jean  Forbes  al.  Barclay,  and  a  number  of 
children  surviving  him.^^ 

Alexander  Jaferay  and  Christian  Barclay  had  three  sons, 
Robert  Jafifray,  who  settled  in  Dublin,  Gilbert  Jaffray  and  Thomas 


Dublin,  deceased,  from  the  Registry  of  tlie  Court  of  Canterbury  Prerogative  Wills,

brother,  David  Barclay  of  London;  to  her  nephew,  Robert  Barclay  of  Ury;  to  her 
great  nephews,  Robert  Barclay,  junior,  David  Barclay  and  Evan  Barclay,  sons  of  said 
Robert  Barclay  of  Ury;  to  her  nephew,  John  Barclay  (junior)  of  Dublin,  merchant; 
to  her  niece.  Patience  Barclay,  sister  of  said  John  Barclay;  to  Christian  Jaffray, 
daughter  of  Robert  Jafifray  of  Kingswells,  Aberdeen,  now  a  merchant  in  Dublin;  to 
Elizabeth  Forbes,  wife  of  Timothy  Forbes  of  London,  merchant  (Quaere:  Was  this 
the  wife  of  the  testatrix's  son  or  stepson?);  to  her  sister,  Jean  Forbes,  widow  of 
Alexander  Forbes,  sometime  of  Aquorthies  and  late  of  London,  merchant;  and  makes

Will  dated:   12th,  3rd  mo.   (Alay),   1729.     Proved  June  4,   1740. 

Recites  that  under  marriage  settlement  his  wife  Jane  Forbes  is  entitled  to  an 
annuity  out  of  the  lands  of  Aquorthies  and  Colyhill,  in  Aberdeenshire,  Scotland, 
which  at  the  time  of  the  settlement  was  in  possesssion  of  the  testator's  father,  John 
Forbes,  but  now  in  his  own  (Was  he  the  eldest  son?)  and  managed  by  his  sister, 
Barbara  Forbes,  as  his  agent. 

Refers  to  his  two  houses  at  Dowgate  Hill,  London,  and  York  Place,  Surrey. 

Gives  residue  to  his  seven  children  (all  minors  at  the  date  of  the  Will),  namely,

who  subsequently  married  William  Penn,  grandson  of  the  founder;  Barbara  Forbes; 
Ann  Forbes;  Katherine  Forbes;  and  Margrat  Forbes. 

No  witnesses  to  the  will,  which,  however,  was  proved  by  James  Barclay  of  St. 
Dionis,  Blackchurch  Parish,  London  (Quaere:  Was  this  the  son  of  David  Barclay  the 
linendraper?)  and  Alexander  Forbes  of  St.  Michael  Woodstreet  Parish,  London,  both 
bankers  and  both  Quakers. 

Administration  was  granted  to  a  creditor.  Barbara  Forbes  and  Anne  Forbes, 
spinsters,  renounced  their  prior  right  as  did  Jane  Forbes,  widow,  and  as  guardian  of 
John  Forbes,  Alexander  Forbes  and  Katherine  Forbes,  minor  children  of  the  tes- 
tator.    The  other  children,  if  then  living,  do  not  seem   to  have   renounced.

The  Barclays  of  Ury.  79 


The  Cooper  connection  appears  from  the  records  to  have 
been  as  follows : 

William  CoopLR,  of  Cooper's  Hill  in  Shraugh,  county 
Queens,  married  Experience  Strettell,  daughter  of  Abel  Strettell 
of  Dublin.i2.  i4  Their  children  were  Edward  Cooper,  who  mar- 
ried Sarah  Clibborn,!^ — (her  relationship  to  the  other  Clibborns 
does  not  appear)  ;  Thomas  Cooper,  of  Newton,  county  Carlow, 
who  does  not  seem  to  have  married  up  to  the  year  1770;^^,  17

Clibborn  ;i2.  H 17  Anne  Cooper,  who  married  John  Barclay,

(son  of  James  Clibborn  and  Experience  Barclay),  a  nephew  of 
said  John  Barclay,  junior.^-  ^"^ 


The  records  bear  witness  to  the  fact  that  John  Barclay 
(senior)  was  a  man  of  some  degree  of  commercial  importance  in 
Dublin  and  was  of  prominence  among  the  Quakers. 

The  Calendar  of  Petitions  to  the  Lord  Lieutenant  of  Ireland, 
or,  in  his  absence,  to  the  Lords  Justices  of  Ireland,  which  is  pre- 
served in  the  Record  Office  in  Dublin,  shows  orders  granted  on 
the  petition  of  John  Barclay,  merchant,  on  March  19,  1741,  allow- 
ing the  export  of  butter  to  Newfoundland;  on  October  16,  I74i>

The  records  of  the  Proceedings  of  the  Dublin  Monthly  Meet- 
ing (volumes  7  and  8,  covering  the  years  1724-1742)  show  that 
on  the  1st,  7  mo.,  1724,  John  Barclay  was  appointed  to  act  in  the 
securing  of  more  land  for  the  Meeting;  on  31st,  6  mo.,  172^,  he 
was  appointed  on  a  deputation  to  welcome  the  new  Lord  Chan- 
cellor, Richard  West;  on  the   15th,  9  mo.,   1726,  he  was  on  a

of  Chancery  and  the  conditions  upon  which  Quakers  should  be 
required  to  affirm;  on  the  21st,  9  mo.,  1729,  he  was  on  a  deputa-

A  number  of  entries  found  in  volumes  8,  9  and  11  of  the 
Proceedings  of  the  Dublin  Monthly  Meeting,  show  that  Anne 
Barclay   (b   1719),  daughter  of  John  Barclay,  senior,  travelled 
considerably  for  an  unmarried  woman  of  those  days.     At  a  Men's 
Meeting  held  21st,  9  mo.,  1738,  a  certificate  was  received  from 
the  Frenchay  Monthly  Meeting  "touching  the  orderly  and  agree- 
able conversation  of  Anne  Barclay  who  resided  there  some  time." 
At  a  Men's  Meeting  held  24th,  5  mo.,  1744,  John  Barclay 
consented,  at  the  request  of  Elizabeth  vShippy  and  Esther  White, 
"two  Public  Friends  from  America,"  that  his  daughter  Anne 
Barclay  should  accompany  them  in  their  intended  visit  to  Friends 
in  Scotland  and  in  the  North  of  England ;  and  a  "certificate  of  her 
orderly  conversation"  was  accordingly  granted.     On  the  28th, 
2  mo.,  1747,  she  obtained  a  certificate  to  enable  her  to  visit  the 
Meetings  of  Friends  in  Munster  Province, — a  suitable  companion 
offering  in  the  person  of  one  Abigail   Watson.     On  the  21st, 
4  mo.,  1748,  John  Barclay  made  application  for  a  certificate  for 
his  daughter  Anne  Barclay  to  visit  parts  of  England  in  company 
with  Abigail  Watson,  and  a  certificate  was  granted  accordingly. 
At  a  Men's  Meeting  held  2nd,  9  mo.,  1755,  it  appeared  that 
Anne  Barclay,  being  then  in  London,  had  desired  a  certificate 
from  the  Dublin  Meeting,  whereupon  Robert  Clibborn  and  John 
Rutty  were  "desired  to  make  enquiry  concerning  her  conversation 


The   Barclays   of  Ury.  8i 

"  and  clearness  in  relation  to  marriage"  and  to  draw  a  certificate 
accordingly.  There  is  nothing  to  show  how  they  decided  or 
whether  she  ever  married. 

From  these  same  minutes  it  appears  that  in  1731  John  Bar- 
clay requested  of  the  Meeting  a  certificate  concerning  the  con- 
versation, etc.,  of  his  nephew,  David  Barclay,  who  had  moved 
from  Dublin  to  reside  at  London ;  and  a  certificate  as  to  the 
nephew's  conversation  "and  clearness  in  regard  to  marriage"  was 
granted  accordingly. 

On  May  21,  1712,  one  Benjamin  Chetwood  and  his  wife  Ann 
Chetwood,  al  Ann  Eustace,  had  leased  to  Amos  Strcttell  for  a 
term  of  three  lives,  renewable  for  ever, — the  lives  selected  being 
those  of  Robert  Strettell,  son  of  Amos  Strettell,  Jonathan  Stret- 
tell,  son  of  Abel  Strettell,  and  Joseph  Maddock,  son  of  Joseph 
Maddock — a  plot  of  ground  on  the  West  side  of  Eustace  Street, 
adjoining  the  Quaker  Meeting  House  ;^^  and  on  the  same  da}^  a 
similar  lease  of  the  next  adjoining  plot  was  made  by  the  same 
parties  to  Abel  Strettell,  on  the  same  lives."*i  Amos  Strettell  built 
a  dwelling  house  on  the  parcel  thus  taken  over  by  him  and  by 
instrument  dated  March  22,  1719,  leased  the  property  to  John 
Barclay  for  the  same  term.42  A  year  later,  and  by  deed  dated 
October  11  and  12,  1720,  Amos  Strettell  conveyed  the  premises 
to  his  son-in-law,  John  Barclay,  "in  consideration  of  5  .y  and  of 
"  his  natural  love  and  affection  for  his  daughter  Anne  Barclay  al. 
"  Strettell,  and  in  fulfillment  of  a  solemn  promise  made  on  her 
"  marriage  ;"^^  and  then  went  into  bankruptcy.'*^  Prior  to  this, 
and  by  instrument  dated  June  18,  1718,  John  Barclay  had  taken 
from  Benjamin  Chetwood  a  lease  of  adjacent  property  on  the 
west  side  of  Eustace  Street  (whereon  it  seems  that  John  Barclay 
built  his  warehouse),  to  hold  for  the  lives  of  John  Barclay,  the 
lessee,  Thomas  Strettell,  second  son  of  Amos  Strettell,  and  Robert

Jaffray,  second  son  of  Alexander  Jaffray,  of  Kings  Wells  in 
Aberdeenshire,  North  Britain, — which  Robert  Jaffray  is  described 
in  the  record  as  "then  apprentice  to  said  John  Barclay," — with 
right  of  renewal  forever  within  six  months  of  the  death  of  each 
life.^s  These  two  plots  with  dwelling  house  and  warehouse  seem 
to  have  constituted  the  Barclay  homestead  in  Dublin,  and  was 
added  to  after  his  death  by  his  son,  John  Barclay,  the  second.^^ 

Immediately  after  John  Barclay's  death  and  in  accordance 
with  instructions  contained  in  his  will,  his  business  was  continued 
by  his  wife  and  son  John  under  the  name  of  "Ann  Barclay  & 
Son :"  and  it  so  appears  in  Wilson's  Dublin  Directory  for  the 
year  1752.  The  Directories  show,  however,  that  in  1762  and 
1763,  the  business  was  conducted  under  the  son's  name,  "John 
Barclay,"  and  at  Eustace  Street,  which  was  in  St.  Andrew's 
Parish.  In  1764  the  name  did  not  appear  in  the  directory;  in 
1765,  its  place  of  business  was  at  Glasnevin,  in  Glasnevin  Parish ; 
and  from  1766  to  1768,  inclusive,  it  was  conducted  under  the 
name  of  "John  Barclay"  in  Dawson  Street,  which  was  in  St.  Anne's 
Parish.  In  the  directories  of  1784-5-6  the  firm  of  "Ann  Barclay 
&  Sisters,"  Tea  Merchants,  were  recorded  as  having  their  place 
of  business  at  18  French  Street, — which  is  now  Upper  Mercer 
Street  in  St.  Peter's  Parish.  The  name  Barclay  does  not  appear 
in  the  directories  of  1787-8-9,  while  in  the  directories  of  1790- 1-2, 
"Barclay  &  Co.,"  milliners,  are  recited  as  having  their  place  of 
business  at  31  Bolton  Street, — in  St.  Mary's  Parish.  Whether 
or  not  this  firm  consisted  of  the  daughters  of  John  Barclay,  the 
second,  does  not  definitely  appear. 

The  special  interest  of  the  writer  in  the  Dublin  branch  of  the 
Barclays  of  Ury,  centres  in  the  Robert  Barclay  (grandson  of  the 
Apologist,  and  eldest  son  of  the  John  Barclay  who  settled  in  Dub- 
lin, and  of  Anne  Stettrell,  his  wife),  born  19th,  ist  mo.,  1717/18;^ 
for  there  are  some  slight  circumstances  which  lean  toward  the 
possibility  of  this  Robert  having  been  the  father  of  that  Thomas 
Barclay  who  was  born  in  St.  Mary's  County,  Maryland,  on  March 
i8th,  1755.^'^     While  Thomas  Barclay  at  all  times  declined, — for

reasons  best  known  and  consistently  kept  to  himself, — to  give  to 
his  wife  or  children  any  information  whatsoever  concerning  his 
father's  family,  yet  an  intimate  friend  of  his  earlier  days  informed 
his  son,  Judge  Joseph  Barclay  of  Monmouth  County,  New  Jersey, 
many  years  after  the  father's  death,  that  Thomas  Barclay  was  a 
direct  descendant  from  the  Ury  family ;  and  he  seemed  to  know 
whereof  he  spoke.  The  possession  by  Judge  Barclay  of  an  old 
copy  of  the  famous  Apology  which  had  come  down  to  him  from 
his  father,  and  the  impossibility  of  a  descent  from  Ury  except 
through  this  Robert  Barclay  (b  1717/18),  complete  the  very  in- 
sufficient set  of  circumstances  that  make  it  even  possible  that  the 
Robert  Barclay,  whose  two  sons,  John  and  Thomas,  were  born 
in  St,  Mary's  County,  Maryland,  in  the  sixth  decade  of  the  eigh- 
teenth century,  was  the  same  Robert  Barclay  as  was  born  in 
Dublin  on  the  19th,  ist  mo.,  1717/18. 

The  mystery  with  which  Thomas  Barclay  surrounded  the 
antecedents  of  his  father  Robert,  finds  a  possible  counterpart  in 
the  complete  disappearance  from  all  records  concerning  the  Dub- 
lin family, — which  seem  otherwise  to  have  been  very  carefully 
kept  (and  the  records  at  Bury  Hill  are  much  less  complete), — of 
Robert,  the  Apologist's  grandson.  It  is  possible,  of  course,  that 
Robert  Barclay  (b  1717/18)  died  young  and  that  his  death  was 
not  recorded  at  the  Dublin  Monthly  Meeting;  but  it  is  equally 
possible,  and  as  it  seems  to  the  writer  more  probable,  that  he  did 
not  die  in  childhood  but  was  perhaps  disowned  in  his  young  man- 
hood because  of  some  religious  or  moral  lapse,  or  was  perhaps 
believed  by  his  family  to  have  perished,  and  possibly  did  perish, 
in  some  distant  land,  so  that  no  record  of  the  fact  was  made. 

The  Minutes  of  Proceedings  of  the  Dublin  Monthly  Meeting, 
— which  have  been  carefully  searched, — fail  to  show  any  testi- 
mony of  denial  or  disownment  of  Robert  Barclay,  son  of  John, 
as  they  certainly  would  have  done  had  his  family  abandoned  him 
because  of  religious  lapse ;  and  the  criminal  records  of  Dublin 
County,  which  have  also  been  searched  from  1720  to  1750,  contain 
no  reference  to  his  name.  It  is  hardly  probable,  therefore,  that 
he  was  disowned  because  of  a  moral  lapse.  Yet  the  fact  that  no 
entry  of  his  death  appears  upon  Eustace  Street  records,  is  cogent 
evidence,  as  it  seems  to  the  writer,  that  he  did  not  die  in  child- 
hood.    His  father,  as  we  have  seen  above,  was  an  influential 


84  Dublin   Branch   of 

member  of  the  Dublin  Monthly  Meeting,  and  the  family  deaths 
are  carefully  chronicled  on  its  records  both  before  and  after  the 
year  1750, — the  date  of  the  father's  will,  to  be  referred  to  below. 
In  this  connection,  note  the  records  of  the  burials  of  John  Bar- 
clay's daughters  Christian  Barclay  in  1719,  Katherine  Barclay  in 
1720,  and  the  second  Katherine  Barclay  in  1735 ;  of  John  Barclay 
himself  in  1751 ;  and  of  his  wife  Amie  Barclay  in  1771.  Surely 
if  Robert  had  died  in  Dublin  in  childhood,  some  mention  of  his 
death  or  burial  would  have  appeared  on  these  records ;  and  it  is 
not  a  violent  presumption  from  the  records  alone  to  presume  that 
he  left  Dublin  in  his  young  manhood  for  other  parts  and  was 
either  known  or  believed  by  his  parents  to  have  died,  or  was  so 
wholly  lost  sight  of  after  a  lapse  of  many  years  as  to  have  been 
regarded  as  dead  by  his  family. 

Be  the  fact  as  it  may,  however,  there  can  be  no  doubt  that 
on  March  6,  1750,  when  John  Barclay,  the  father,  made  his  will, 
Robert  Barclay,  his  eldest  son,  was  either  known  or  believed  by 
him  to  be  dead, — or  had  possibly  been  disowned.  The  will  was 
dated  as  above  and  together  with  two  codicils  was  proved  Novem- 
ber 20,  1753.  The  testator  mentions  his  wife  Anne  Barclay;  his 
son  John  Barclay;  his  five  unmarried  daughters  Anne  Barclay, 
Patience  Barclay,  Elisabeth  Barclay,  Jane  Barclay  and  Lydia  Bar- 
clay; his  daughter  Experience  Clibborn;  his  grandson  Barclay 
Clibborn,  son  of  Experience ;  and  his  wife's  niece  Joanna  Rooke. 
He  directs  that  his  business  in  which  his  son  John  is  a  partner 
should  be  continued  under  the  name  of  "Anne  Barclay  and  Son," 
for  the  benefit  of  his  wife,  son  and  unmarried  daughters ;  and  he 
appoints,  as  his  executors  and  trustees,  his  wife  Anne  Barclay, 
his  son  John  Barclay,  his  son-in-law  James  Clibborn,  and  Robert 
Clibborn,  the  elder,  of  Meath  Street,  Dublin,  a  brother  of  said 
James  Clibborn. 

His  son  Robert  Barclay  is  not  mentioned  in  the  will  or  in 
either  of  the  codicils."*^ 

And  finally  the  following  clause  of  the  will  seems  wholly  in- 
consistent with  a  belief  on  the  testator's  part  that  Robert,  his  son, 
was  then  living: 


*^Original    Prerogative    Will    on    file   in   the    Record    Office    in   the    Four    Courts, 
Dublin. 


The    Barclays  of  Ury.  85 


" To  the  intent  and  purpose  that  my  said  dear  wife 

shall  and  may  have,  receive,  take  and  enjoy  to  her  own  use,  one  full 
third  part  of  the  interest,  benefit  and  produce  thereof  during  her 
natural  life,  with  full  power  for  her  to  dispose  of  the  said  one-third 
part  of  my  fortune,  either  in  her  lifetniie  or  at  her  decease,  to  and 
amongst  our  dear  children^  in  such  shares  and  proportions  and  at  such 
times  as  my  said  dear  wife,  by  deed  or  will,  shall  appoint ;  and  for 
want  of  such  appointment  the  same  to  go  equally  among  all  our  dear 
children^,  share  and  share  alike " 

So,  too,  in  the  will  of  John  Barclay's  sister,  Katherine  Forbes 
above  noted,^^  dated  February,  15,  1758,  mention  is  made  of  all 
the  then  living  children  of  John  Barclay,  except  Robert ;  and  the 
conclusion  may  be  fairly  drawn  that  the  testatrix  either  knew  or 
believed  that  Robert  was  dead,  or  possibly, — as  seems  to  have 
been  the  fate  of  most  of  the  kin  who  abjured  the  faith  of  the 
Friends, — had  ceased  to  regard  him  as  one  of  the  family. 

The  circumstances  thus  noted  in  connection  with  the  pos- 
sibility of  Robert  Barclay  of  Dublin  {b  1717/18)  being  the  father 
of  John  Barclay  and  of  Thomas  Barclay  of  St.  Mary's  County, 
Maryland,  are  too  slight  and  inconsequent  to  form  the  basis  of  a 
claim,  or  even  of  an  opinion.  They  are  here  set  forth  in  the  hope 
that  as  time  goes  on  further  light  may  be  shed  upon  both  features 
of  the  problem.

PART  VI. 


Line  of  Descent  from  Thomas  Barclay  of  St.  Mary's  County, 

Maryland. 

THE  ancestry  of  Thomas  Barci^ay  (b  St.  Mary's  County, 
Md.,  March  i8,  1755),  is  by  no  means  clear  enough  to 
warrant  its  being  made  the  basis  of  a  claim,  even,  much 
less  of  an  assertion.  From  family  tradition, — an  unreliable 
source  at  best, — and  from  statements  made  by  a  life-long  friend 
of  Thomas  Barclay  to  his  son  Judge  Joseph  Barclay  (No.  6 
below),  it  would  seem  that  he  were  of  the  Ury  family;  and  yet 
the  only  member  of  that  family  through  which  such  descent 
could  possibly  be  traced  would  be  Robert  Barclay  of  Dublin, 
son  of  John  Barclay  of  the  same  place  and  grandson  of  the  apolo- 
gist. Whether  this  Robert  Barclay  ever  attained  manhood  or 
married  or  had  issue,  is  a  matter  of  conjecture  only,  as  was 
pointed  out  in  Part  V  above.  No  record  is  preserved  either  at 
Dublin  or  elsewhere  (so  far  as  the  writer  has  yet  discovered), 
of  anything  more  than  the  date  and  place  of  this  Robert  Bar- 
clay's birth ;  and  if  it  be  a  fact  that  he  came  out  to  America  and 
married  and  had  issue,  such  fact  was  unknown  to  his  family  or 
else  was  ignored  by  them  because  of  some  moral  or  religious  lapse 
on  his  part. 

Of  course  it  is  possible  that  in  his  early  manhood  this  Robert 
Barclay  sailed  abroad  (for  his  father  was  interested  in  shipping 
and  commerce),  and  was  generally  believed  to  have  been  lost  at 
sea,  when  such  was  not  the  fact ;  and  that  for  reasons  best  known 
to  himself  he  was  content  that  the  misapprehension  should  con- 
tinue. But  be  the  conjecture  what  it  may,  the  only  facts  es- 
tablished are  that  he  was  born  in  Dublin  19th,  ist  mo.,  171 7/18, 
a  son  of  John  Barclay  and  a  grandson  of  the  Apologist,  and  that 
while  records  of  the  births,  deaths  and  marriages  (or  disown- 
ments)  of  all  other  members  of  his  family  were  carefully  entered 
at  the  Monthly  Meeting,  no  record  of  any  kind  was  entered 
concerning  this  Robert  Barclay  beyond  the  record  of  his  birth. 
The  future,  let  it  be  hoped,  will  shed  light  upon  the  problem. 


Thomas  Barclay  of  Maryland.  87 

Thomas  Barclay  of  St.  Mary's  County,  Md.,  died  in  1804  at 
Shrewsbury,  N.  J.,  and  was  buried  in  the  graveyard  there  of 
Christ  Church,  of  which  he  had  formerly  been  a  vestryman.  For 
some  thus  far  undiscovered  reason,  he  persistently  refused  even 
to  converse  with  his  wife  concerning  his  father's  family,  or  to 
answer  any  queries  she  put  to  him  with  regard  thereto ;  and  he 
left  her,  as  she  subsequently  told  her  children,  in  absolute  ig- 
norance of  all  except  that  his  father's  name  was  Robert,  that  his 
mother  was  an  Overton,  and  that  he  had  had  an  older  brother 
John, 

On  July  12,  1776,  Thomas  Barclay  enlisted  from  St.  Mary's 
County,  Md.,  as  a  member  of  the  "Flying  Camp,"  and  he  served 
throughout  the  w^ar.  In  1779  he  was  a  member  of  Major  Ander- 
son's 3rd  Maryland  Regiment,  which  formed  a  part  of  Washing- 
ton's command  in  New  Jersey,  and  while  there  he  met,  and  later 
married,  Catherine  Williams,  the  daughter  of  John  Williams  of 
Shrewsbury,  whose  lands  had  been  confiscated  and  who  was  him- 
self then  a  fugitive  because  of  his  adherence  to  the  King.  After 
the  war  Thomas  Barclay  made  his  home  in  Shrewsbury,  and  his 
children  all  were  born  there. 

His  mother, — an  Overton, — was  possibly  Margaret  Overton, 
the  daughter  of  William  Overton  of  Hanover  County,  Va.,  and 
Peggy  Garland,  his  wife.  There  is,  however,  no  certain  record 
of  his  mother's  Christian  name  or  parentage. 

The  will  of  his  brother  John,  who  died  in  St.  Mary's  County, 
Md.,  bore  date  June  12,  1792,  and  was  proved  on  August  loth  of 
the  same  year.  It  would  appear  from  such  will  that  John  Bar- 
clay never  married. 

The  following  is  the  descent  from  this  Thomas  Barclay:

PART  VII. 


Line  of  Descent   from   Rev.  Thomas  Barclay,  the  first  Rector  of  St. 
Peter's  Church  at  Albany. 

IT  SEEMS  to  have  been  generally  assumed,  although  er- 
roneously, that  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay  had  but  three  sons, — 
Thomas,  Henry  and  Andrew.  Mr.  George  L.  Rives,  in  his 
book  already  referred  to, — "Correspondence  of  Thomas  Barclay" 
(New  York,  Harper  &  Bros.,  1894), — states  that  the  sons  were 
Thomas,  Anthony  and  Henry,  and  that  Anthony  married  Helena, 
daughter  of  Jacobus  Roosevelt ;  but  this  was  undoubtedly  a  mere 
clerical  error  on  the  part  of  Mr.  Rives.  There  was  no  Anthony 
in  the  family  until  Rev.  Henry  Barclay  so  named  his  second  son, 
in  honor,  doubtless,  of  the  boy's  maternal  grandfather,  Col.  An- 
thony Rutgers.^ 

That  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay  had  four  children  is  certain  from 
his  wife's  letter  to  the  Society  for  the  Propagation  of  the  Gospel, 
under  date  of  May  22,  1722,  quoted  in  Part  H  above;  and  that 
the  fourth  child  was  also  a  son  and  bore  the  name  John,  are  the 
only  inferences  which  it  seems  to  the  writer  the  facts  about  to  be 
considered  will  permit. 

In  the  office  of  the  Surrogate  of  New  York  County,  in  Liber 
36  of  Wills,  at  page  194,  is  recorded  the  will  of  "John  Barclay, 
mayor  of  the  City  of  Albany."  This  will  was  dated  January 
30th,  1779,  and  was  proved  before  the  Surrogate  of  Albany 
County  on  June  20th,  1783.  It  refers  to  a  previous  wife  of  the 
testator,  without  naming  her ;  appoints  his  present  wife,  Mar- 
garet, an  executrix,  and  gives  to  her  a  life  interest  in  his  residuary 
estate ;  makes  specific  bequests  to  "Charlotte,  wife  of  Coenradt 
Ten  Eyck"  and  to  "Peter  Ten  Eyck,  son  of  Andries  Ten  Eyck ;" 
and  then,  and  upon  the  death  of  his  wife,  gives  one  half  of  his 
residuary   estate   to   "the   children"    (unfortunately   not   naming 


*See  Rev.  Henry  Barclay's  will,  proved  October  i,  1764,  and  recorded  in  the 
office  of  the  Surrogate  of  New  York  County  in  liber  24  of  Wills,  at  page  498;  also, 
Andrew  Barclay's  will,  proved  May  25,  1776,  and  recorded  in  the  same  office  in  liber 
30  of  Wills,  at  page  184.

them)  "of  my  brother  Andrew  Barclay,  lately  deceased,"  and  the 
other  half  to  "the  children"  (also  not  naming  them)  "of  my  late 
"  brother,  Henry  Barclay,  deceased."  The  records  just  cited 
show  that  Andrew  Barclay's  will  was  proved  May  25th,  1776,  and 
that  Rev.  Henry  Barclay's  will  had  been  proved  many  years 
before, — on  October  ist,  1764. 

It  would  indeed  be  a  strange  coincidence  if  there  were  two 
Barclay  families  of  prominence  at  that  time  so  closely  identified 
with  the  City  of  Albany,  in  each  of  which  there  were  three  sons 
named,  respectively,  Henry,  Andrew  and  John ;  and  the  coinci- 
dence would  be  still  more  marked  if  the  Andrew  and  the  Henry 
in  each  of  these  families  had  died  at  about  the  same  time, — the 
Andrews  within  a  comparatively  short  time  before  the  month  of 
January,  1779,  ^"*i  the  Henrys  some  years  before.  The  coinci- 
dence would  be  too  extraordinary  for  acceptance  without  further 
circumstances  to  support  it ;  and  it  seems  to  the  writer  that  as 
]\Irs.  Barclay's  letter  of  May  22,  1722,  conclusively  establishes 
that  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay  had  four  children  instead  of  three,  it 
may  reasonably  be  assumed  that  the  fourth  child  was  a  son 
named  John,  who  subsequently  became  j\Iayor  of  the  City  of 
Albany, 

The  will  of  John  Barclay,  Mayor  of  Albany,  makes  no 
mention  of  any  issue  who  might  survive  him,  and  the  disposition 
of  his  residuary  estate,  in  the  manner  above  pointed  out,  permits 
the  inference  that  he  died  without  issue. 

Furthermore,  the  records  at  Albany  show  that  throughout 
the  revolutionary  struggle  this  John  Barclay  was  an  earnest 
patriot  and  zealously  supported  the  cause  of  the  colonies.^  Col. 
Thomas  Barclay  (a  son  of  Rev.  Henry),  on  the  other  hand,  and 
his  brothers-in-law,  Stephen  de  Lancey  and  Beverley  Robinson, 
were  ardent  loyalists  and  fought  for  the  King.  Although  John 
Barclay,  of  Albany,  evidently  did  not  choose  that  these  differences 
should  sunder  the  ties  of  blood,  the  fact  that  his  name  has  wholly 
disappeared  from  the  more  or  less  plastic  charts  of  the  family 
that  have  come  down  to  the  Barclays  of  to-day,  is  probably  trace- 


'In  the  New  York  Journal  and  General  Advertiser  of  September  15,  1777,  is 
a  letter  of  congratulation  from  John  Barclay,  Chairman  of  the  Committee  of  the  City 
of  Albany,  addressed  at  Albany,  under  date  of  August  20,  1777,  to  George  Clinton, 
"  Governor-General  and  Commander-in-Chief  of  all  the  Militia,  and  Admiral  of  the 
"  Navy  of  the  State  of  New  York." 


Rev.   Thomas  Barclay  of  Albany.  loi 

able  to  the  bitterness  with  which  the  loyalist  descendents  of  Rev. 
Thomas  regarded  a  "rebel,"  even  of  their  own  kith  and  kin. 

John  Barclay  was  a  prominent  member,  and  vestryman,  of 
St.  Peter's  Church  at  Albany  both  before  and  during  the  exciting 
incumbency  of  Rev.  Harry  Munro,"  and  seems  in  all  ways  to  have 
been  a  man  of  strength  and  of  influence  in  the  community.  His 
first  wife  was  Gerritje  Coeyiiians  {bap  21  October,  1722),  daugh- 
ter of  Pieter  Barentse  Coeymans,  who  had  married  5  October, 
1713,  Elizabeth  Greveraad  ;'^  and  his  second  wife  was  Margaret 
Ten  Eyck.  The  list  of  marriage  licenses  issued  out  of  the  Pro- 
vincial Secretary's  ofilice  at  Albany,  shows  that  on  August  28th, 
1771,  a  marriage  license  was  granted  to  John  Barclay  and  Mar- 
garet Ten  Eyck;^  and  the  parish  records  of  St.  Peter's  Church 
contain  an  entry  that  on  September  8th.  1771,  John  Barclay  was 
married  "by  license."  Curiously  enough,  the  parish  records  do 
not  state  to  whom  he  was  married. 

That  John  Barclay  died  before  the  expiration  of  his  term 
of  office  as  mayor  (it  was  his  only  term),  is  shown  by  the  fol- 
lowing extract  from  the  Records  of  the  City  of  Albany : 

"Albany  Common  Council  Chamber  4  March  1779 

"The  Worshipful  Jolm  Barclay  Esq.,  late  Mayor  of  this  City  having 
departed  this  Life  and  the  honorabfe  Abraham  Ten  Broeck  Esquire  having 
on  the  i8th  day  of  February  last  been  appointed  by  the  honorable  Council 
of  Appointment  of  this  State  to  succeed  the  said  John  Barclay  Esq.,  de- 
ceased, in  the  Chief  Magistracy  of  this  City,  a  Commission  of  which  ap- 
pointment he  produced  to  the  following  Members  of  the  Corporation  in 
whose  presence  he  took  the  oath  appointed  by  Law  and  was  sworn  to 
the   due    execution    of   his    respective    offices     *******    *"• 

It  would  appear  from  this  that  he  died  on  February  i8th, 
I779> — or  possibly  on  the  preceding  day ;  but  none  of  the  con- 
temporary newspapers  which  the  writer  has  been  able  to  find,  nor 
indeed  any  other  record,  gives  definite  information  as  to  the  date 
of  his  death. 

Practically  nothing  is  known  of  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay's 
oldest  son,  Thomas  Barclay,  bevond  the   fact  that  he  died  un-

married.  At  least  the  statement  that  he  "died  unmarried"  ap- 
pears on  several  of  the  charts  which  have  come  to  the  writer's 
notice,  and  nothing-  has  thus  far  developed  which  suggests  a 
doubt  as  to  the  accuracy  of  such  statement.  Neither  the  date  of 
his  birth  nor  the  date  of  his  death  is  recorded  on  any  of  the 
charts. 

The  line  of  descent  from  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay  through  his 
other  sons,  Henry  and  Andrew,  is  rather  generally  known.  Yet 
in  many  surprising  instances  absolute  ignorance  exists  of  the 
dates  of  birth,  death  or  marriage  of  even  comparatively  recent 
descendants  of  this  well-known  ancestor.  The  writer  has  under- 
taken,— and  it  has  proved  no  easy  task, — to  compile  a  table, 
brought  down  to  the  present  day,  of  all  descendants  of  Rev. 
Thomas  Barclay ;  and  he  believes  that  what  follows  is  substan- 
tially correct.  The  dates,  for  the  most  part,  have  been  furnished 
him  from  the  private  records  of  the  various  families  in  the  line 
of  descent,  and  he  would  be  glad  to  give,  upon  request  therefor, 
his  authority  for  any  name  or  date  which  appears  in  this  table. 
At  the  same  time  he  would  welcome  the  correction  of  error  and 
the  supplying  of  any  omitted  name  or  date. 

The  appearance  of  a  f  after  a  name  in  the  table  indicates 
that  the  writer  is  without  further  information  concerning  such 
person  or  his  or  her  possible  issue.

later  years  to  have  dropped  the  middle  letter  and  was  generally  spoken  of  as  "Col. 
Thomas  Barclay." 

He  entered  the  British  army  in  1776,  and  in  the  following  February  was  made 
Captain  in  the  Loyal  American  Regiment  of  New  Yorkers.  In  1780  he  became  Major 
in  a  corps  of  light  infantry,  and  served  in  Virginia  and  Carolina.  While  on  his  way 
from  Charleston  to  the  Chesapeake  with  despatches  from  Lord  Rawdon  to  Earl  Corn- 
wallis,  he  was  captured  by  the  French  fleet  but  was  soon  exchanged  and  rejoined  his 
regiment,  with  which  he  remained  until  it  was  disbanded  in  1783.  In  the  fall  of  that 
year  he  took  his  family  to  Nova  Scotia  and  engaged  in  farming  at  Wilmot.  In  1789 
he  commenced  the  practice  of  law  at  Annapolis  Royal  and  was  soon  elected  to  the 
Provincial  Assembly.  For  several  years  he  was  speaker  of  the  Assembly.  In  1792 
he  was  made  Lieut.-Colonel  of  the  Royal  Nova  Scotia  Regiment,  and  in  1793  was 
made  Adjutant-General  of  the  Militia  of  the  Province.  In  1796  he  was  appointed  a 
commissioner  for  the  British  under  Jay's  treaty,  and  in  1799  was  made  British  Consul- 
General  for  the  Eastern  States  of  America,  resident  at  New  York.  He  held  this  office 
until  1812.  In  1814  he  was  appointed  British  commissioner  under  the  Treaty  of 
Ghent  in  which  service  he  continued  until  i8j8,  when  he  retired  from  the  office  (N.

"Died:   On   Friday   last,   suddenly,   by   the   bursting  of   a   blood   vessel,    Thomas 
Moncrieffe,    Esq.,    late    Major   in   the    British    service;    and    on    Sunday   evening   his 
remains   were   interred   in   Trinity   Church   Yard,   attended  by  a   great   number  of   re- 
spectable citizens." 

Among  the  bound  pamphlets  in  the  library  of  the  New  York  Historical  Society, 
is  an  extremely  well  written  and  unusually  interesting  one  entitled  Memoirs  of  Mrs. 
Coghlan,  New  York:  T.  &  J.  Swords,  1795.  The  writer,  Margaret  Coghlan,  was  the 
daughter  of  Major  Moncrieffe  by  a  former  wife;  and  in  these  Memoirs,  written  at  the 
age  of  but  thirty-three,  she  tells  of  the  life,  crowded  to  overflowing  with  unusual 
incident  even  for  the  days  of  the  Revolution,  of  a  spirited  girl  who  was  forced  by 
the  iron  wills  of  her  father  and  brother,  when  but  fourteen  years  of  age,  to  marry  3 
man,  Lieut.  John  Coghlan,  whom  she  abhorred  and  despised.  The  particular  interest 
of  the  Memoirs  in  connection  with  the  Barclay  descent  is  the  tribute  paid  by  Mrs. 
Coghlan  to  her  father's  third  wife,  Helena  Barclay. 

The  father's  first  marriage  was  to  Margaret  Heron,  a  daughter  of  the  Governor 
of  Annapolis  Royal,  who  was  a  wife  at  fourteen  and  in  her  grave  before  she  was 
twenty,  leaving  two  children  surviving  her,  Edward  Cornwallis  Moncrieffe  and 
Margaret  Moncrieffe,  the  writer  of  the  Memoirs.  In  1765,  when  the  brother  was 
five  and  the  sister  but  three,  they  were  sent  by  their  father  to  Dublin  to  be  educated, 
and  there  they  remained  until  1772.  On  October  10,  1764,  hardly  a  year  after  his 
first  wife's  death,  Major  Moncrieffe  had  married  Polly  Livingston,  a  daughter  of 
Judge  Livingston  of  New  York;  and  in  1770  he  came  to  Dublin  with  his  regiment, 
the  55th,  and  brought  his  wife  with  him.  "The  person  of  this  lady,"  writes  Mrs. 
Coghlan,  "was  uncommonly  forbidding,  but  her  purse  was  irresistible.  Young  as  I 
was,  I  did  not  like  my  new  mother.  She  had,  as  I  above  remarked,  the  most  dis- 
agreeable countenance,  and,  what  is  worse,  she  was  a  stranger  to  every  social  virtue 
and  a  rigid  Presbyterian." 

In  1772,  the  brother  and  sister  returned  to  New  York.  The  former  entered 
Kings  College,  while  the  latter  remained  under  the  care  of  a  governess.  In  January, 
1774,  their  stepmother  died  childless,  at  the  age  of  thirty-four,  leaving  her  fortune 
to  her  husband,  "for  in  her  marriage  articles,"  writes  Mrs.  Coghlan,  "she  had  reserved 
to  herself  the  power  of  disposing  of  it." 

Less  than  six  months  after  his  second  wife's  death,  Mrs.  Coghlan  continues,  her 
father  took  to  himself  another  wife,  "one  of  the  lovliest  of  her  sex"  (Helena  Bar- 
clay).    "In  her  bosom  virtue,  honour  and  conjugal  aft'ection  were  blended;  but  alas!

her  fate  destined  her  for  an  early  grave.  Ten  months  after  her  marriage  she  died  in 
childbirth  of  her  infant  son,  my  youngest  brother,  leaving  him  and  myself  under  the 
care  of  her  brother-in-law,  Mr.  Frederick  Jay,  who  was  then  member  of  Congress  for 
the  province  of  New  York. 

"At  this  time  my  father  was  with  General  Gage,  at  Boston.  Thus  I  found 
myself  in  the  midst  of  republicans  in  war  against  the  crown  of  Great  Britain, — perse- 
cuted on  every  side,  because  my  father  was  fighting  for  the  cause  of  a  king!  At  the 
age  of  thirteen,  1  was  sent  to  board  at  Elizabeth-Town,  New  Jersey,  with  the  family 
of  an  American  Colonel,  where  I  was  forced  to  hear  my  nearest  and  dearest  relations 
continually  traduced." 

She  states  that  at  the  commencement  of  the  war  Congress  had  repeatedly  offered 
her  father  a  command  in  the  Northern  army,  which  was  subsequently  given  to  his 
nephew,  General  Montgomery;  but  all  such  offers  were  rejected,  "and  thus,"  she 
writes,  "we  lost  the  glorious  opportunity  of  adding  the  laurel  of  patriotism  to  a  name 
high  in  the  ranks  of  military  valor,  and  perhaps  unequalled  in  military  science.  No 
man  ever  served  the  British  Monarch  with  more  fidelity  or  fought  for  him  with 
greater  bravery." 

Her  marriage  to  Lieut.  John  Coghlan  occurred  on  February  28th,  1777,  and  her 
father  died   (according  to  these  Memoirs)   on  December   loth,   1791. 

A  possibly  different  conception  of  the  character  of  Major  Moncrieffe's  second 
wife  may  be  gathered  from  the  following  obituary  notice  which  appeared  in  Riving- 
ton's  New  York  Gazetteer  of  Thursday,  January,  13,   1774: 

"Last  Tuesday  night"  (that  is,  January  11,  1774)  "at  9  o'clock.  Major  Mon- 
CRIEFFE  met  with  the  inexpressible  loss  of  his  Lady,  Mrs.  Moncrieffe,  who  died  in  the 
34th  year  of  her  age,  of  a  consumption;  which,  leaving  her  the  free  use  of  her 
reason,  gave  her  the  advantage  of  exhibiting  a  degree  of  patience  that  allowed  not  a 
repining  word,  and  an  example  of  such  eminent  heroism  and  affection,  that  it  is 
difficult  which  most  to  admire,  the  undaunted  fortitude  of  the  one,  or  the  ardour  and 
tenderness  of  the  other.  Mrs.  Moncrieffe  was  the  youngest  child  of  James  Living- 
ston, Esq.,  deceased,  and  has  left  an  only  daughter."  (The  panegyrist  evidently 
thought,  though  erroneously,  that  Margaret  Moncrieffe  was  a  daughter  of  the  second 
wife.)  "The  corpse  will  be  interred  on  Friday  evening  in  the  old  Presbyterian 
Church." 

In  Gaine's  Gazette  and  Weekly  Mercury  of  Monday,  March  3,  1777,  appears 
the  following  notice  of  ^Margaret  Moncriefi'e's  marriage: 

"Last  Monday  Evening"  (that  is,  February  24,  1777)  "Lieut.  John  Coghlan, 
of  the  7th,  or  English  Fuzileers,  was  married  by  the  Rev'd  Dr.  Auchmuty,  to  Miss 
Margaret  Moncrieffe,   only   Daughter  to  Thomas  Moncrieffe,   Esq." 

♦'From  The  Weekly  Museum  of  Saturday,  20  June,  1807: 

"Died:  Suddenly,  on  Thursday,  Mr.  Thomas  Barclay  Moncrieffe." 

"From  The  Royal  Gazette  of  Saturday,  20  June,  1778: 

"Last  Tuesday  evening  was  married  at  Flatbush,  by  the  Rev.  Dr.  Inglis,  Miss

The  records  of  Calvary  Church,  New  York,  state  that  Mrs.  Craig  was  buried 
May  6,  1S49. 

The  inscription  on  the  monument  by  the  Bayley  Vault  in  Van  Cortlandt  Park, 
New  York,  erroneously  states  11  :May,  1849,  as  the  date  of  Mrs.  Craig's  death.  The 
monument  was  erected  about  i860,  and  the  faulty  date  was  doubtless  •inscribed  from 
memory.

1826,  Robert  Bibby  was  baptized,  son  of  Edward  N.  and  Augusta  Bibby,  born  Janu- 
ary 17,  1826.  But  Mrs.  Munro  is  authority  for  the  statement  that  this  entry  is  in-

Extracts  from  the  Earlier  New  York  City  Directories,  1786-1803. 

During,  or  shortly  prior  to,  1794,  the  names  of  many  of  the 
streets  in  New  York  were  changed.  The  earher  names,  as  they 
appear  in  a  map  of  the  city  pubhshed  with  the  1798  directory,  and 
the  present  locations  of  some  of  the  principal  streets,  are  as  fol- 
lows: 

King  Street  is  now  Pine  Street. 

Queen  Street  "    "    Pearl  Street,  from  Wall  Street  to  Park  Row.

^The  Allardices,  of  Allardice,  held  the  lands  from  which  they  took  their  name 
from  the  time  of  King  William  the  Lion.  The  estate  of  Allardice  lies  in  the  parish 
of  Arbuthnott,  Kincardine,  Scotland,  and  the  burial  aisle  of  the  family  is  in  the  very 
ancient,  but  recently  restored,  church  of  Arbuthnott  where  a  brass  tablet  inserted  in  the 
wall  indicates  the  position  of  the  Allardice  aisle.  Allardice  Castle,  the  old  family  seat, 
dates  back  to  1540  or  earlier.  It  is  one  of  the  most  notable  of  the  castles  of  Kincardine- 
shire. It  is  still  habitable,  and  stands  on  high  ground  overlooking  the  Bervie  water,  about 
two  miles  from  the  sea,  where  doubtless  the  older  keep  of  the  Allardices  of  that  illc 
had  stood  for  centuries.  When  the  Allardice  estate  was  sold  in  1872, — some  eighteen 
years  after  the  death  of  Capt.  Robert  Barclay-Allardice  (No.  30  below), — it  was  ac- 
quired by  Lord  Arbuthnott  and  now  forms  part  of  the  Arbuthnott  estate. 

Sarah  Ann  ALLARncE  was  the  undoubted  representative  of  Prince  David,  Earl 
of  Strathearn,  son  of  King  Robert  II  of  Scotland,  having  been  served  and  "retoured" 
(that  is,  entered  in  the  chancery  records)  heir-general  to  his  descendant,  William 
Graham,  8th  Earl  of  Monteith  and  2nd  Earl  of  Airth.  Her  son,  Capt.  Robert  Barclay- 
Allardice  (No.  30  below)  laid  claim  to  these  titles  under  the  Letters  Patent  of  21 
March  1633  (and  was  sometimes,  therefore,  known  as  "The  Claimant"),  which  claim 
was  revived  by  his  daughter  Margaret  Barclay-Allardice  (No.  36  below),  and  has 
again  been   revived  by   her   oldest   son   Robert   Barclay-Allardice    (No.    38   below).

^For  the  descendants  of  Robert  Barkley  and  Hugh  Barkley  of  Bedminster 
Township,  see  pages  254-5  of  Early  Germans  of  New  Jersey,  by  Theo.  F.  Chambers. 
Dover,  N.  J.,  1895.  The  author,  however,  is  in  error  when  he  says  that  this  family 
may  have  descended  from  John  Barclay  of  Perth  Amboy. 

In  History  of  Hunterdon  and  Somerset  Counties,  already  referred  to,  there 
is  stated  at  page  93  the  following  list  of  privates  who  served  in  the  revolution:  Joseph 
Barclay;  George  Barkley;  Hugh  Barkley;  John  Barkley;  Joseph  Barkley;  and 
John  Bartley.  This  author,  too,  is  in  error  in  his  statement  at  page  706  that  the 
Bedminster  family  was  descended  from  the  Barclays  of  Ury.

erine Barclay  at  "Topenaizmous"  Church. 

1752,  September  19, —  Elizabeth  Barclay,    daughter  of 
John  and  Catherine  Barclay,  of  Cranbury. 

1753,  May  14, — Samuel  Barclay,  son  of  John  Barclay,  of     ' 
Cranbury. 

1766,  July  20, — Lydia  Barclay,  daughter  of  David  Barclay        '  '~*' 
and  Catherine  Barclay  at  the  Church  at  Freehold.^ 

1767,  February    15, — Jane   Barclay,   daughter  of  David        /:.,^.       ■- 
Barclay  and  Catherine  Barclay,  ai  the  Church  at  Freehold.^ 


^The  name  "James"  here  written  is  manifestly  a  mistake  for  "John."  The 
Peter  Barclay  whose  baptism  is  thus  recorded  was  undoubtedly  tne  fifth  child  (fourth 
son)  of  John  Barclay  (son  of  John  Barclay  and  grandson  of  Col.  David  Barclay  of 
Ury  and  Katharine  Gordon,  his  wife),  who  was  born  3  March,  1735.  See  Part  IV 
above. 

*Is  it  not  possible  that  the  clergyman  who  transcribed  this  record  was  completely 
in  error  as  to  the  names  of  the  child's  parents?  There  are  no  existing  records  from 
which  it  may  be  inferred  that  David  Barclay  of  Freehold  had  a  wife  Catherine,  or  a 
daughter  Lydia.  His  brother  Charles  Barclay  had  a  daughter  Lydia,  born  1766;  but 
the  name  of  Charles'  wife  was  Rebecca,  not  Catherine.  It  seems  more  than  probable 
that  the  child,  whose  baptism  in  Freehold  is  here  recorded  in  Shrewsbury  was  the 
fourth  child  of  Charles  Barclay  (son  of  John  Barclay,  grandson  of  John  Barclay 
and  great  grandson  of  Col.  David  Barclay  of"  Ury)  and  Rebecca  Gordon,  his  wife.  See 
Part  IV  above. 

''Here,  too,  the  name  "Catherine"  was  doubtless  incorrectly  written.  The  Jane 
Barclay  whose  baptism  is  thus  recorded  was  beyond  question  the  sixth  and  youngest 
child  (born  1767)  of  David  Barclay  (son  of  John  Barclay,  grandson  of  John  Barclay 
and  great  grandson  of  Col.  David  Barclay  of  Ury)  and  Elizabeth  Walker,  his  wife.

Co.  of  Surrey,  England. 

From  Pennsylvania  Gazette  of  Wednesday,  March  5,  1788: 

"On  the  iSth  of  December  last"  (that  is,  December  18,  1787),  "died, 
at  his  house  at  Hackney,  near  London,  in  the  59th  year  of  his  age,  John 
Barclay  (son  of  David  Barclay,  late  of  that  City,  and  grandson  of  Robert 
Barclay,  who  wrote  the  Apology  for  the  Quakers).  His  loss  will  long  be 
severely  felt,  not  only  by  his  immediate  connections,  but  by  numbers  who 
have  experienced  the  spirited  efforts  of  his  active  friendship.  His  benevo- 
lence wias  so  universal,  his  desire  of  doing  good  was  so  ardent  and  in- 
variable, that,  instead  of  making  a  long  confinement  to  his  house  and  a 
weak  frame  of  body  a  plea  for  declining  to  promote  the  welfare  and  suc- 
cess of  those  who  applied  to  him  for  his  assistance,  he  cheerfully  and 
zealously  undertook  their  case,  though  often  to  the  detriment  of  his  health; 
and  he  cordially  relieved  the  distresses  of  the  necessitous,  and  those  who 
were  ready  to  perish.  In  an  age  when  the  property  of  the  rich  is  wasted 
on  the  most  contemptible  trifles,  and  exhausted  merely  in  selfish  gratifica- 
tions ;  when  the  number  of  those  who  seek  occasion  to  do  good  is  so  con- 
fined ;  the  death  of  such  a  man  as  John  Barclay  is  and  should  be  con- 
sidered and  lamented  as  a  public  loss."

From  New  York  Commercial  Advertiser  of  Friday,  3  March, 

1848. 

"Died:  In  the  City  of  Mexico,  on  the  Qth  of  January  last,  Captain 
James  Barclay  of  Company  C  of  the  New  York  Volunteers. 

"The  subject  of  the  above  notice  was  a  native  of  the  city  of  Albany, 
the  only  child  of  William  Barclay,  deceased,  formerly  connected  with  the 
Bank  of  Albany.  He  was  in  service  at  the  siege  of  Vera  Cruz,  and  took 
part  in  all  the  great  battles  in  which  the  American  army,  under  General 
Scott,  was  engaged,  from  that  of  Vera  Cruz  to  the  storming  of  the  City 
of  Mexico.  In  the  battle  of  Chepultepec  he  was  second  in  command  to 
Lieut.  Col.  Burnham,  commanding  officer  of  the  U.  S.  Regiment  of  New 
York  Volunteers,  and  won  for  himself  a  military  distinction  of  no  ordinary 
grade,  as  will  appear  from  Col.  Burnham's  report  of  the  part  taken  in 
these  engagements  by  the  New  York  Volunteers.  He  was  slightly  wounded 
in  the  arm  during  this  engagement.  Spared  by  a  protecting  Providence 
from  an  impending  death  during  so  many  sanguinary  battles,  he  has  fallen 
a  victim  to  the  typhus  fever  now  so  prevalent,  from  the  last  accounts, 
among  the  troops  in  the  City  of  Mexico." 

From  New  York  Herald  of  Sunday,  August  9,  1903 : 

"James  Edward  Barclay,  a  portrait  artist,  formerly  well  known  in  this 
city,  Washington,  D.  C.,  and  Boston,  died  of  pulmonary  disease  in  Edin- 
burgh, Scotland,  July  27  last.  He  was  born  in  London  fifty-seven  years 
ago,  studied  in  Italy  and  spent  most  of  his  later  years  m  this  country. 
For  several  years  he  had  a  sCudio  in  the  Alpine  Building,  New  York,  but 
went  from  here  to  Washington,  where  he  resided  until  two  years  ago.  At 
the  time  of  his  death  he  was  engaged  on  a  portrait  of  the  Lord  Mayor 
of  Edinburgh.  He  painted  many  well-known  people  in  this  city,  Washing- 
ton and  Boston."

PART    XII. 


Sundry  Records   of  the   Barclays   in    Ireland,  other   than   of  the 
Ury  Family. 

In  the  Dublin  searches  recently  made  for  the  writer,  a  number 
of  records  were  noted  and  returned  which  are  here  cited  in  the 
hope  that  they  may  prove  of  some  use  to  those  who  are  interested 
in  tracing  a  descent  from  one  or  more  of  the  many  families  of 
Barclay  in  Ireland.  It  is  not  claimed  that  these  records  are 
all  that  may  be  found  in  any  of  the  localities  named,  for  the 
search  was  not  directed  against  the  name  of  Barclay,  generally; 
but  it  is  believed  that  what  is  here  given  may  be  relied  upon  as 
acccurate,  so  far  as  it  goes. 

Among  the  original  wills  proved  in  Killaloe  Diocese  and 
preserved  in  the  Record  Office,  Dublin,  is  that  of  "David  Bar- 
clay, Clerk."  Will  dated  July  i8,  1715;  proved  March  15, 
1715/16.  The  probate  of  the  will  describes  the  testator  as  "late 
Incumbent  of  Killmurry  McMahon," — which  was  in  County 
Clare,  on  the  Shannon  River.  The  will  refers  to  testator's  wife, 
without  naming  her,  and  to  his  sons  David  Barclay,  Harey  Bar- 
clay and  Andrew  Barclay. 

In  P.  Dwyer's  printed  "Diocese  of  Killaloe,  1550-1700" 
this  cleric  is  referred  to  a  number  of  times  and  at  page  401  is 
given  a  photograph  of  his  portrait.  It  is  also  there  stated  that 
during  the  troubles  of  1 689-1 691  he  remained  at  home,  and  held 
a  valuable  farm  under  the  See  of  Killaloe.  His  family  in  1878 
still  held  Ballyartney. 

At  page  326  of  Dwyer's  "Diocese  of  Killaloe"  it  is  stated 
that  a  Mr.  Barclay,  son  of  Rev.  Gawin  Barclay,  both  before  and 
after  1660  was  tenant  of  Ballina,  owned  by  Major  Thompson  after 
forfeiture  by  Sir  T.  O'Brien ;  and  at  page  395  Lady  Barclay 
of  County  Clare  is  enumerated  among  the  refugees  in  England 
in  1689.

and  Pertinents  of  the  said  Hail  Lands  above  mentioned,  together 
with  the  Teinds  of  the  said  whole  Lands,  both  Parsonage  and 
Vicarage  included,  all  lying  within  the  Parish  of  Fetteresso  and 
Sheriffdom  of  Kincardine,  the  present  annual  Rental  of  which 
Lands  so  lying  disjointed  amounts  to  the  Sum  of  two  hundred 
and  sixty-five  pounds  eighteen  shillings  and  one  penny  sterling, 
according  to  the  Schedule  hereunto  annexed  (marked  A)  : 

AND  WHEREAS  the  said  Robert  Barclay  Allardice, 
now  of  Urie  and  of  Allardice,  stands  seised  and  possessed  in  fee 
simple  of  the  following  Lands  and  Premises  which  lie  adjacent 
to  and  intermixed  with  the  said  entailed  Estate  of  Urie,  and  near 
the  Mansion  House  thereof  (that  is  to  say)  all  and  whole  those 
Parts  of  the  Lands  of  Redcloak  and  Findlayston,  lying  in  the 
County  of  Kincardine  and  Parish  of  Fetteresso,  bounded  and 
described  as  follows:  videlicet:  Be;ginning  upon  the  south  at 
the  junction  of  the  Burn  of  Maxie  with  the  Water  of  Cowie,  and 
following  up  the  channel  of  the  said  Burn  in  a  westerly  direction, 
until  it  is  intersected  by  the  Turnpike  Road  leading  from  Stone- 
haven to  Bridge  of  Fough  by  the  Slugmouth,  from  thence  keeping 
the  line  of  the  said  Turnpike  Road  in  a  northerly  direction,  until 
it  is  intersected  by  a  straight  line  drawn  from  the  point  of  junc- 
tion of  the  Marches  of  the  Estates  of  Findlayston  and  Urie  at 
the  stone  wall  inclosing  the  field  called  Balnagight,  from  the 
plantation  thereof ;  from  said  point  in  said  Turnpike  Road,  going 
in  an  easterly  direction  along  said  line,  to  the  beforementioned 
point  of  junction  of  the  Marches  of  the  Estates  of  Findlayston 
and  Urie,  from  thence  keeping  a  southwesterly  direction  along 
the  line  of  Marches  between  the  said  Estates  of  Findlayston  and 
Urie,  until  it  joins  the  Water  of  Cowie,  and  from  thence  holding 
down  the  course  of  said  Water  in  a  southeasterly  direction  to  the 
mouth  of  the  Burn  of  Maxie,  at  which  this  description  com- 
mences, with  Houses,  Biggings,  Yards,  Orchards,  Woods,  Plant- 
ings, Fishings,  Mosses,  Muirs,  Meadows,  Commonty,  Common 
Pasturage,  Tofts,  Crofts,  Parts.  Pendicles,  and  Hail  Pertinents 
of  the  same  whatsoever,  together  with  the  Teinds,  both  Parsonage

Hail  Desks,  Seats,  Rooms,  and  Burial  Places  belonging  to  the 
said  Lands,  within  the  Church  and  Church  Yard  of  Fetteresso, 


390  45  George  III.,  Ch.  88. 

the  present  annual  Rental  of  which  Lands  amounts  to  the  Sum 
of  three  hundred  and  fifty-one  pounds  seventeen  shillings  and 
tenpence  sterling,  according  to  the  Schedule  hereto  annexed, 
marked  (B)  : 

AND  WHEREAS  it  would  be  convenient,  on  account  of 
the  situation,  for  the  said  Robert  Barclay  Allardice,  and  the 
heirs  of  entail  entitled  to  succeed  to  him  in  the  said  Barony  and 
Estate  of  Urie,  if  the  Lands  and  Hereditaments  immediately 
before  mentioned,  parts  of  the  Lands  of  Redcloak  and  Findlays- 
ton,  so  held  by  the  said  Robert  Barclay  Allardice  in  fee  simple, 
were  annexed  to  the  said  entailed  Estate  of  Urie  in  lieu  of  and 
in  exchange  for  the  said  parts  thereof  disjoined  and  inconveniently 
situated,  and  it  would  likewise  be  advantageous  for  the  said 
heirs  of  entail  because  the  said  Lands  so  proposed  to  be  annexed 
to  the  entailed  Estate  are  of  greater  value  than  the  said  Lands 
proposed  to  be  taken  therefrom  ;  But  as  such  Exchange,  by  reason 
of  the  limitations  and  prohibitions  of  the  said  Deed  of  Entail, 
cannot  be  effectuated  without  the  aid  and  authority  of  Parliament ; 

MAY  IT  THEREFORE  PLEASE  YOUR  MAJESTY, 

Upon  the  Humble  Petition  of  your  Majesty's  dutiful  and 
loyal  Subject  the  said  Robert  Barclay  Allardice,  now  of  Urie

and  Deed  of  Settlement  of  the  said  Lands  and  Hereditaments 
particularly  before  described,  parts  of  the  Lands  of  Redcloak  and

Charters  shall  or  may  pass  and  be  obtained  thereupon,  and  Infeft- 
ment  taken  by  virtue  of  the  Precept  of  Sasine  therein  contained, 
agreeably  to  the  forms  of  the  Law  of  Scotland ;  and  that  the  said 
Disposition  or  Deed  of  Settlement  shall  be  recorded  in  the  regis- 
ter of  entails  for  Scotland,  and  of  that  of  the  Court  of  Session 
for  preservation,  for  the  benefit  of  all  and  every  Person  or  Per- 
sons interested  therein,  to  all  which  the  said  Judges  of  the  Court

cluded, lying  within  the  Parish  of  Fetteresso  and  Sheriffdom  of

entailed  Estate  of  Urie,  but  lying  at  a  distance  from  the  Mansion 
House  thereof,  and  proper  to  be  exchanged  for  the  said  parts  of

APPENDIX     C. 

The  Ancestry  of  Lady  Katharine  Gordon. 


In  an  article  by  the  late  Rev.  Beverley  Robinson  Betts,  en- 
titled "The  Heraldry  of  St.  Paul's  Chapel,  New  York,"  pub- 
lished in  volume  III  of  the  New  York  Genealogical  &  Bio- 
graphical Record,  at  page  21,  a  genealogical  table  is  given  which 
purports  to  show  the  descent  of  Col.  Thomas  Barclay, — first 
British  Consul  in  New  York, — from  Henry  III,  King  of  England, 
and  from  Robert  Bruce  of  Scotland.  This  table  is  certainly  er- 
roneous in  three  particulars,  first,  in  that  it  recites  Rev.  Thomas 
Barclay  of  Albany  as  a  son  of  John  Barclay,  brother  of  the 
apologist,  and  thus  seeks  to  connect  Col.  Thomas  with  the  Ury 
line,  whereas  he  was  not  a  descendant  of  the  Ury  family;  second- 
ly, in  that  it  describes  John  Barclay,  the  apologist's  brother,  as 
"of  New  York,"  whereas  he  never  was  of  New  York,  but  always 
(in  this  country)  of  East  New  Jersey;  and,  thirdly,  in  that  it 
names  "Cornelia  Van  Schaick"  as  the  wife  of  John  Barclay,  the 
apologist's  brother,  whereas  John  Barclay's  wife  was  not  named 
Cornelia,  but  Katharine,  and  probably  was  not  a  Van  Schaick ; 
and  it  may  be  erroneous  in  many  more  particulars. 

As  showing  the  probable  ancestr}'-  of  Lady  Katharine  Gordon, 
however,  the  table  is  entertaining,  and  is  reproduced  below  (in 
abbreviated  form)  for  what  it  may  be  worth.  The  writer  has 
not  deemed  the  matter  of  sufficient  importance  to  check  the 
accuracy  of  the  table  from  Lady  Katharine  Gordon  to  Henry  III 
and  Robert  Bruce,  and  assumes  no  responsibility  for  any  inac- 
curacies which  may  appear  therein.  As  a  matter  of  amusement 
he  has  carried  the  table  on  beyond  Henry  III,  and  he  gives  Hume 
as  his  authority  for  the  statements  made  in  such  further  portion.

APPENDIX     D. 

The  Arais  of  the  Barclays  of  Pierston  and  of  the 
Barclays  of  Mather  and  Urie. 


In  an  article  entitled  "The  Heraldry  of  St.  Paul's  Chapel, 
New  York,"  by  the  late  Rev.  Beverley  Robinson  Betts,^  the  tablet 
is  described  which  was  erected  in  St.  Paul's  to  the  memory  of 
Col.  Thomas  Barclay,  the  first  British  Consul  in  New  York 
(grandson  of  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay  of  Albany),  and  his  arms 
are  stated  to  be: 

"Gules  a  chevron  or  between  three  crosses  patee  argent.- 
Crest:  A  sword  erect  argent,  hilt  and  pomel  or 
Motto:  Crux  Christi  nostra  Corona." 

"By  some  oversight,"  wrote  Mr.  Betts,  "doubtless  of  the  en- 
graver, the  chevron  is  given  or  whereas  it  should  be  argent. 

"The  arms  of  the  ancient  family  of  Barclays  of  Urie,"  he 
goes  on  to  say,  "are 

"Gules  a  chevron  between  three  crosses  patee  argent, 
and  they  were  so  borne  by  Col.  Barclay  in  his  lifetime." 

But  the  Rev.  Mr.  Betts  was  mistaken  in  his  description  of 
the  arms  of  the  Barclays  of  Ury,  whatever  may  have  been  the 
arms  borne  by  Col.  Thomas  Barclay  in  his  lifetime.  The  crest 
and  the  motto  above  described  have  come  down  to  Col.  Barclay's 
descendants,  beyond  any  doubt,  for  they  are  used  by  them  to-day ; 
but  they  are  not  the  crest  or  motto  of  the  Ury  family,  as  we  shall 
presently  see,  but  are  approximately  the  crest  and  motto  of  Sir 
Robert  Barclay  of  Pierston.  Nor,  as  we  shall  also  see,  were  the 
arms  described  by  Mr.  Betts  the  arms  of  the  Barclays  of  Mather 
and  Ury.

J98  The  Barclay  Arms. 


The  arms  of  Sir  Robert  Barclay  of  Pierston,  were: 

Azure  a  chevron  betwixt  three  crosses  patee  or 

Crest:  A  sword  in  pale  ppr  hilt  and  pomel ; 

Motto:  Crux  Christi  nostra  Corona ;"2 
while  the  arms  of  the  Barclays  of  Mather  and   Ury  originally 
were,  as  recorded  in  the  Lyons  Register : 

Azure  a  chevron  and  in  chief  three  crosses  patee  argent.^ 

In  the  appendix  to  the  second  volume  of  Nisbet's  "System 
of  Heraldry/'^  page  241,  the  following  appears  as  a  part  of  the 
genealogical  account  of  the  Barclays  of  Mather  and  Urie,  written 
in  1725,  and  apparently  by  one  of  the  family: 

"Their  armorial  bearing  was  formerly  three  crosses  patees  with  a 
"  cheveron,  and  a  mitre  for  a  crest.  But  the  present  Barclay  of  Urie, 
"  anno  1725,  after  the  example  of  Struan  Robertson,  threw  out  the 
"  cheveron,  as  being  by  some  thought  a  mark  of  cadency ;  though,  as  Sir 
"  George  Mackenzie  observes  in  his_  Heraldry,  it  was  anciently  esteemed 
"an  ornament;  so  their  present  bearing  is 

"  Azure  three  crosses  patee  in  chief  argent  with  a  dove  and  olive 
"branch  in  its  mouth  for  a  crest.  In  an  escrol  above  'Cedant  Arma'  and 
"below  'In  hac  vince,'  as  extracted  from  the  Lyon's  books  1725-" 

A  Steel  plate  showing  the  arms  will  be  found  on  page  6  of 
the  plates  immediately  following  the  appendix. 

In  Stodart's  "Scottish  Arms,"  the  writer  says : 

"  In  1725  Robert  Barclay  of  Urie  as  representing  Barclay  of  Mathers, 
"  registered  (in  Lyons  Court) 

"  Azure,  three  crosses  patee  in  chief  argent. 

"  Crest:    A  dove  with  an  olive  branch  in  its  mouth,  all  ppr. 

"Motto:  Cedant  Arma,  and  In  hac  vince. 

"The  direct  line  having  ended  in  an  heiress,  Mrs.  Margaret  Barclay 
"Allardice  (Ritchie),  the  heir  male,  Arthur  Kett  Barclay  of  Bury  Hill, 
"  CO.  Surrey,  in  1858  recorded  arms  with  alterations,  and  was  allowed  sup- 
"  porters  which  had  been  previously  borne  by  the  Barclays  of  Urie,  but 
"  not  registered : 

"  Azure  a  chevron  and  in  chief  three  crosses  patee  argent. 

"  Crest:   A  bishop's  mitre  affrontee  with  tassels  flottant  upward  or 

"Motto:    In  cruce  spero. 

"Supporters:  Two  old  savage  men,  wreathed  about  the  loins  with  oak 
leaves,  holding  in  their  exterior  hands  clubs  erect,  all 
ppr."

The   Barclay  Arms.  399 

In  Burke's  Landed  Gentry,  edition  of  1852,  the  arms  of 
the  Barclays  of  Urie  and  of  Bury  Hill  are  given  as  above  de- 
scribed in  Stodart's  Scottish  Arms;  and  the  same  arms  are 
given  in  the  edition  of  1871. 

Whether  Mr.  Betts'  description  of  the  arms  borne  by  Col. 
Thomas  Barclay  as  being  gules  in  the  field,  was  an  error  of  the 
sculptor,  or  is  indicative  of  a  descent  of  Col.  Thomas  from  some 
family  other  than  either  the  Pierston  or  Ury  family,  the  writer 
is  not  in  a  position  to  form  any  opinion.  Certain  it  is  that  the 
arms  described  by  Mr.  Betts  are  not  the  arms  of  either  Pierston 
or  Ury,  although  the  crest  and  motto  inscribed  in  St.  Paul's  are 
practically  the  same  as  those  of  Sir  Robert  Barclay  of  Pierston. 

It  is  an  interesting  fact  to  note  in  this  connection  that  most  of 
the  English  Berkeleys,  as  a  research  will  show,  bore  gules  in 
their  fields  while  most  of  the  Scottish  families  had  azure  fields. 
And  yet  in  1247,  according  to  Sir  James  Balfour  in  his  MMS.  OF 
Blazons  in  Lyons  Court,  the  surname  of  Berkeley  carried 
"gules  a  chevron  between  ten  crosses  patee  argent,  six  in  chief 
and  four  in  base."  While  this  blazon  was  generally  that  used 
by  the  Berkeleys  for  a  considerable  period,  several  of  the  branches 
of  the  family  found  it  more  in  accordance  with  the  usages  of 
heraldry  and  more  agreeable  to  arms  to  reduce  the  number  of 
crosses  to  three  and  have  altered  the  tinctures  in  their  several 
bearings. 

Sir  Robert  Barclay  of  Pierston,  Ayres,  Knt.,  was  created 
Baronet  of  Nova  Scotia,  October  22nd,  1668,  with  remainder  to 
the  heirs  male  of  his  body.  He  died  in  1694-5,  having  married 
(i)  August  4th,  1653,  Catherine,  dau.  of  Alexander  Lochhart  of 
Edinburgh,  merchant  (of  the  Carnwath  family)  by  whom  he  had 
three  sons  and  a  daughter,  and  (2)  September  28th,  1659,  Bar- 
bara Deans,  by  whom  he  had  eight  sons  and  three  daughters.*

County  Records  of  Virginia. 

Frederick  County  was  established  from  Orange  County  in 
1738,  and  from  1743  the  records,  including  marriage  licenses,  for 
all  Northern  Virginia  were  kept  in  the  court  house  at  Winchester. 
The  records  are  well  cared  for  and  are  in  good  condition. 

Loudon  County  was  taken  from  Fairfax  County  and  was 
established  in  1757.  Its  wills  and  deeds  from  1757,  and  marriage 
licenses  from  1793,  are  preserved  in  the  court  house  at  Leesburg. 

Fairfax  County  was  established  in  1742  out  of  Prince 
William  County,  and  its  records  are  complete  from  that  date  with 
the  exception  of  a  few  books  that  were  lost  during  the  civil  war. 
The  marriage  licenses  date  back  only  to  1856.  All  records  are 
preserved  at  Fairfax  Court  House,  and  among  them  the  original 
will  of  George  Washington.  The  record  of  this  will  covers 
twenty-two  pages  and  includes  his  observations  upon  the  value  of 
his  properties  in  Virginia,  Maryland,  New  York,  and  other 
localities. 

Prince  William  County  was  established  out  of  Stafiford 
County  in  1730.  The  county  seat  is  at  Manassas  and  the  records 
are  in  good  condition. 

Fauquier  County  was  taken  from  Prince  William  County 
and  was  established  in  1759.     Its  wills,  deeds  and  court  records 


^The  contents  of  this  Appendix,  with  the  exception  of  the  notes  on  the  parish

gages from  1733  to  1865, — with  the  exception  of  two  old  books  of 
general  entry, — were  sent  from  Hanover  Court  House  to  Rich- 
mond for  preservation  during  the  War  of  the  Rebellion,  and  were

preserved  contain  general  entries  from  1733  to  1792. 

The  records  of  St.  Stephens  Parish,  Hanover  County,  were 
also  destroyed  during  the  war. 

Caroline  County  records  are  kept  at  Bowling  Green  and 
date  from  1727,  when  the  County  was  established.  During  the 
civil  war  they  were  sent  to  Richmond  for  safe  keeping,  and  a 
portion  of  them,  including  wills  from  1727  to  1814  and  land 
records  from  1727  to  1836,  were  destroyed  in  the  burning  of 
Richmond. 

The  only  old  records  at  Bowling  Green  are  some  old  Order 
and  Judgment  books  from  1732  to  1740,  which  are  in  fair  con- 
dition, and  are  indexed.  Those  from  1740  to  1759  are  simply 
a  mass  of  waste  paper  with  indices  gone,  and  are  of  little  or  no 
practical  use  to  the  genealogist.     Those  from  1759  to  1772  are

in  hopeless  confusion,  and  many  of  the  indices  are  missing.  It  is 
impossible  to  gain  any  continuous  knowledge  of  their  contents. 
The  books  from  1781  to  1800  are  indexed  and  are  available  for 
general  use,  as  is  also  the  record  of  marriage  licenses  from  1786 
to  1846. 

Westmore;land  County  was  established  in  1663  and  its

\'irginia  was  divided  in  1634.  Its  records  are  preserved  at  York- 
town.  Wills  from  1633  and  deeds  from  1645  are  complete  to 
date.  They  are,  generally  speaking,  in  good  condition  and  are 
among  the  most  reliable  records  in  Virginia.  They  remained  in 
the  old  court  house  at  Yorktown  through  the  Revolutionary 
struggle,  the  war  of  181 2  and  the  civil  war. 

James  City  County  was  also  one  of  the  original  counties  in 
Virginia.  Its  records,  however,  were  sent  to  Richmond  for  safe 
keeping  during  the  civil  war  and  were  there  destroyed  by  fire. 
Its  county  seat  is  Williamsburg. 

New  Kent  County  was  established  out  of  York  County  in

Condition   of  Virginia   Records.  407 

Henrico  County  was  another  of  the  original  counties  in 
Virginia,  and  dates  from  1634.  All  county  records  prior  to  18 10 
and  all  records  of  the  city  of  Richmond  were  destroyed  by  fire 
when  Richmond  was  burned,  except  that  the  general  records  of 
patents  granted  from  1623,  may  still  be  found  in  that  city.  A 
large  number  of  these  patents  issued  to  soldiers  of  the  Revolution 
by  way  of  bounty,  and  were  generally  located  in  what  are  now 
the  States  of  Ohio  and  West  Virginia.  They  contain  much 
genealogical  information. 

Hampshire  County  (West  Virginia)  was  established  in 
1754  from  Augusta  and  Frederick  Counties,  Virginia.  Deeds

cepting a  few  originals,  were  destroyed  during  the  War  of  the 
Rebellion.     There  are  no  marriage  licenses. 

Hardy  County  (West  Virginia)  was  taken  from  Hampshire 
County  and  was  established  in  1786.  Its  records,  including  some 
marriage  licenses,  are  in  good  condition  at  the  court  house  at

land  warrants  and  similar  records. 

An  abstract  of  each  will,  as  recorded  in  the  will  books  of  the 
Prerogative  Court  of  the  Province,  has  been  taken  from  those 
books  now  on  deposit  in  the  vault  connected  with  the  office  of  the

valuable  addition  to  the  genealogical  literature  of  Maryland. 

\Miile  many  wills  of  the  provincial  period  are  also  recorded

2.  Kiiig  and  Queen  Parish,  in  the  West;  and 

3.  All  Faith  Parish,  in  the  North. 

In  1750.  a  new  parish  was  created  out  of  Wilham  &  Mary, 
known  as  St.  Andrezv's  parish,  which  included  the  Easterly  part 
of  the  County,  and  one  hundred  years  later,  1850,  a  new  parish 
was  set  off  at  the  extreme  South,  called  St.  Mary's  parish. 

At  a  comparatively  recent  date.  King  &  Queen  parish  has 
been  divided  into  Chaptico  and  All  Saints  parishes. 


Condition  of  Maryland  Records.  413 

William  &  Mary  Parish  was  founded  in  1650.  The  church 
was  formerly  called  "St.  George's"  but  for  more  than  a  hundred 
years  has  been  known  as  "Poplar  Hill."  It  is  out  in  the  country, 
about  sixteen  miles  from  Leonardtown.  All  parish  records  prior 
to  November  10,  1798,  have  been  destroyed,  part  wath  the  burn- 
ing of  the  Court  House  between  1826  and  1832,  and  part  with  the 
burning  in  1829  of  the  house  of  a  vestryman,  Dr.  Broome,  in  St. 
Mary's  City. 

St.  Andrew's  Parish.  The  church  at  Leonardtown  is  a 
chapel  of  this  parish.  The  church  had  no  incumbent  in  1897  and 
the  records  were  in  the  possession  of  the  register  of  the  parish, 
Mr.  Walter  H.  Briscoe,  whose  house  is  on  the  Patuxent  River, 
near  Hollywood  P.  O.  They  include  births,  marriages,  burials 
and  vestry  proceedings,  and  date  from  November  27,  1753- 

King  and  Queen  Parish.  Prior  to  the  division  of  this  parish, 
the  parish  church  was  situated  in  the  village  of  Chaptico.  The 
rector  (in  1897),  Rev.  James  L.  Smiley,  and  Mr.  George  R. 
Garner,  one  of  the  vestrymen,  are  authorities  for  the  statement 
that  all  the  parish  records  prior  to  1832  disappeared  during  a  con- 
troversy between  the  then  rector  and  the  vestry,  and  have  never 
since  been  found.  A  single  leaf,  covering  births,  marriages  and 
burials,  1772- 1774,  may  be  found  in  the  Whittingham  Episcopal 
Library  at  1108  Madison  Avenue,  Baltimore. 

All  Faith  Parish  has  its  parish  church  at  Mechanicsville.  Its 
vestry  minutes  from  1692  to  1800  have  been  copied  and  may  be 
found  at  the  Historical  Society  in  Baltimore.  The  rector's  record 
of  births,  marriages,  burials,  etc.,  seems  to  have  disappeared. 

VI. 

Parish  Records  of  Charles  County,  Maryland. 

Trinity  Parish  has  its  parish  church  at  Charlotte  Hall.  Its 
records  had  been  lost  for  many  years,  but  were  recently  found.

minutes,  and  contain  no  record  of  births,  deaths,  marriages  or 
confirmations.

River  Monthly  Meeting,  on  the  Western  Shore  of  Chesapeake 
Bay,  and  the  Third  Haven  Monthly  Meeting  on  the  Eastern 
Shore. 

The  former  dates  back  to  2nd  mo.  (i.  e.  April  O.  S.),  1672,

Record  in  1735.  The  first  volume  of  records,  1735  to  1759,  was 
destroyed  by  fire.  The  records  from  1759  are  preserved  in  the 
vault  at  the  Park  Avenue  Meeting  House,  Baltimore. 

Fairfax  Monthly  Meeting  (Loudon  County,  Virginia),  was 
established  in  1745,  and  its  records  from  that  date  are  preserved 
at  the  Park  Avenue  Meeting  House,  Baltimore,  as  are  also  the 
records  of  the  Crooked  Run  Monthly  Meeting  (of  the  same 
County)  established  1783  and  abandoned  1807.  Goose  Creek 
Monthly  Meeting  (Loudon  County,  Virginia),  was  established

in  1785  and  its  records,  together  with  those  of  the  Alexandra 
Monthly  Meeting,  near  Washington  (which  date  from  1805), 
are  preserved  in  the  same  vault  as  are  the  records  above  men- 
tioned. 

Further  information  concerning  these  meetings  may  be  had 
by  consulting  Janney's  "History  of  Friends,"  or  Weeks' 
"Southern  Quakers  and  Slavery;"  or  by  addressing  Kirk 
Brown  (Custodian  of  the  Records,  Park  Avenue  Meeting  House, 
Baltimore),  who  has  made  a  complete  index  of  the  contents  of 
these  records.  Mr.  Brown  also  has  extensive  notes  compiled  by 
him  from  the  records  of  the  South  River  Monthly  Meeting  in 
Bedford  County,  Virginia,  1757-1878;  of  the  Henrico  Monthly 
Meeting,  in  Henrico  County,  Virginia,  formerly  called  Curls, 
1698-1755  ;  and  of  the  White  Oak  Swamp  Monthly  Meeting  in  the 
same  locality,  1792- 1837.

BARCLAY 
GENEALOGIES 


N  INTERESTIXC;  volume  of  474  large  octavo 
pages,  bound  in  buckram  with  paper  label,  is 
the  "BARCLAY  GENEALOGIES,'  pub- 
lished by  Robert  Grier  Cooke,  307  Fifth 
Avenue,  New  York.  This  work,  of  which  tlie 
edition  is  limited,  has  been  arranged,  compiled,  and  edited  by- 
Mr.  R.  Burnham  JMofFat,  of  the  City  of  New  York,  who,  dur- 
ing the  course  of  studying  his  own  Barclay  ancestry,  has 
acquired  a  mass  of  information  touching  different  Barclay 
genealogies  throughout  the  United  States. 

A  MISTAKEN  TRADITION 

The  descendants  of  Reverend  Thomas  Barclay,  the  first 
rector  of  St.  Peter's  Church  at  Albany,  who  came  out  to  tlie 
colonies  as  a  missionary  to  the  Indians  of  the  Upper  Hudson 
in  1709,  have  long  entertained  a  tradition  that  .John  Barclay, 
a  son  of  Colonel  David  Barclay  of  Ury,  who  settled  in  East 
New  Jersey  in  1685  and  was  prominent  in  the  affairs  of  the 
colony  up  to  the  time  of  his  death  in  1731,  was  their  ancestor. 
That  this  tradition  has  no  foundation  in  fact  the  author  of 
this  volume  conclusively  proves;  and  he  cites  in  support  of  liis 
conclusions  the  records  of  the  proprietors  of  East  N  ew  Jersey, 
a  correspondence  had  early  in  the  nineteenth  century  between 
the  descendants  of  John  Barclay  of  East  New  Jersey  and  the 
family  in  London,  the  records  of  St.  Paul's  Cathedral.  London, 
the  records  of  the  Court  of  Session  at  Edinburgh,  the  Sheriffs 
books  at  Stonehaven  in  Kincardine,  Scotland,  and  many  other 
public  and  private  records. 


THE  BARCLAYS  OF  NEW  JERSEY 

One  division  of  the  work  partially  traces  the  descent  of 
those  who  may  properly  claim  John  Barclay  of  East  New 
Jersey  as  their  ancestor.     These  are  of  Ury  stock. 

THE  BARCLAYS   OF   NEW  YORK 

Another  division  includes  a  table  of  the  1,350,  and  more, 
descendants  of  Rev.  Thomas  Barclay  of  Albany  from  about 
1709  to  the  first  of  January,  1904,  with  the  dates  of  birth, 
marriage,  and  death  of  nearly  every  descendant,  and  the  dates 
of  birth  and  death  of  those  who  married  into  this  line.  In 
addition  to  the  evidence  afforded  by  the  many  church  records 
and  newspaper  notices  of  the  eighteenth  and  nineteenth 
centuries,  which  have  been  examined,  the  private  records,  not 
generally  available,  of  very  many  families  in  this  line  of  descent 
have  been  opened  to  Mr.  Moffat  for  the  purposes  of  this  book; 
and  the  table  here  given  is  beUeved  to  be  substantially  complete. 

OTHER   LINES   OF   DESCENT 

Another  part  of  the  work  includes  a  list  of  the  descendants 
of  Thomas  Barclay,  of  St.  Mary's  County,  Maryland,  the 
ancestor  of  the  author,  with  the  dates  of  birth,  marriage,  and 
death  of  those  who  married  into  this  line. 

Other  tables  trace,  with  similar  dates,  the  descent  from 
John  Barclay,  one  of  the  earlier  Mayors  of  Philadelphia,  who 
was  the  ancestor  of  the  Biddies  and  of  kindred  families  in  that 
city ;  and  the  descent  from  John  Barkley,  of  Londonderry, 
Ireland.  Many  other  lines  of  Pennsylvania,  Virginia,  Mary- 
land, and  Kentucky  Barclays  and  Barkleys  are  contained  in 
this  work. 

THE  BARCLAYS   OF   URY 

A  partial  table  of  the  descendants  of  Colonel  David  Bar- 
clay (who  purchased  the  estate  of  Ury  in  1648)  and  of  Lady 
Katharine  Gordon,  his  wife,  is  contained  in  a  separate  part  of 
the  work,  particular  attention  being  given  to  the  Dublin 
branch  of  the  Barclays  of  Ury,  about  which  even  the  family  at 


Bury  Hill,  in  Eiighiiul,  know  little.  Tlic  uutlior  li:is  caused 
the  public  and  the  church  records  of  Dublin  to  be  searched 
thoroughly,  and  has  transcribed  in  this  volume  all  entries  there 
found  which  relate  to  this  ftimily.  Tlie  ^rcncaloifv  of  the 
Dublin  branch  of  the  Barclays  of  IJry  is  thus  brought  down 
from  1687  to  about  1800. 

EXTRACTS  FROM  OLD  DIRECTORIES 
Another  feature  of  the  book  is  an  interesting  transcription 
from  the  early  directories  of  the  City  of  New  York,  showing 
sundry  changes  in  the  names  of  streets,  and  the  residences  and 
recorded  occupations  of  many  of  the  Barclays,  Baches,  Bayleys, 
Lispenards,  McEvers,  Roosevelts,  and  Whites  in  the  line  of 
Barclay  descent. 

RECORDS  OF  CHURCH  AND  STATE 
In  still  another  part  many  extracts  relating  to  tlie  name 
Barclay  or  Barkley  are  transcribed  from  the  cliurch,  county, 
and  State  records  of  New  York,  New  Jersey,  Pennsyhania, 
Delaware,  Maryland,  and  Virginia,  which  will  necessarily  prove 
of  value  to  genealogists  and  to  those  interested  in  looking  up 
any  particular  hne  of  the  Barclays  or  Barkleys  in  any  of  the 
States  mentioned. 

MISCELLANEOUS  INFORMATION 
The  appendices  contain  an  extremely  valuable  description 
of  the  present  state  of  preservation  of  tiic  public  records  in  the 
various  counties  of  Mrginia  and  of  Maryland;  a  copy  of  a 
private  act  of  Parliament  authorizing  the  breaking  of  the 
entail  of  the  barony  of  Ury  ;  a  consideration  of  tlie  differences 
between  the  arms  of  the  Barclays  of  Matlier  and  Ury  and 
those  of  the  Barclays  of  Pierston;  a  copy  of  the  will  of  John 
Barclay,  second  of  that  name  in  New  Jersey  (born  170*2) ;  ex- 
tracts from  the  records  of  the  Quaker  meeting  at  Woodbridge, 
New  Jersey,  1685-1692;  and  a  table  showing  the  ancestry  of 
Lady  Katharine  Gordon,  wife  of  Colonel  David  Barclay,  of 
Ury,  who  was  known  in  history  as  "The  \Vhite  Hose  of 
Scotland. "
