PREFACE.
It is now about seven years, since, at the solicitation of
Lebbeus Cfiapman, Esq., of Brooklyn, N. Y., and George
H. Chapman, Esq., of Say-Brook, Conn., the compiler of this
work commenced his labors.
At the time he entered upon the task, he had no concep-
tion of the amount of labor which would be required in col-
lecting and arranging a Genealogical Table of the Descend-
ants of Robert Chapman, our common ancestor. Nor was
it supposed, when the offer was generously made by one of
his descendants, to print and distribute a copy of the work
gratis, to all the living descendants, that it would be any-
thing more than a pamphlet of forty or fifty pages, at the
most. It was soon found, however, that the descendants
were so numerous and scattered throughout all the states of
the Union, that a much longer time would be required to
obtain returns from them, at all satisfactory, than was at
first contemplated. The task has been a laborious one,
consuming not less than one-third of the author's w^aking
hours for seven years, accompanied with no small pecuniary
expense, in traveling from place to place t« examine records,
and in postage, stationery, etc. About thirteen hundred let-
ters have been written, more than one hundred burial grounds
visited, and the records of more than forty towns thoroughly
searched, and not a less number of probate, church and par-
ish records examined. The oldest and largest libraries of
New England have also been consulted, to gather up what-
ever could be obtained of historical interest in regard to the

»
Chapman Family in the Old World and the New. The
expense of a work of this sort can never be estimated by any
but those who have been engaged in similar labors. A full
pecuniary compensation can not be expected, as the sale of
the work must be comparatively limited.
The compiler assures his numerous relatives, to whom he
introduces himself in these pages, that he has spared no
care or pains to make a perfect record. Perfection, however,
in such a work can' not be expected. No small perplexity
has often been experienced, in deciphering old records and
inscriptions, and in reading some of the letters received from
aged persons, and others unaccustomed to writing. Often,
too, the statements in regard to ages, dates of births, mar-
riages and deaths of different branches of a family, have con-
flicted with each other. In some instances, no dates can be
found, in which case we have attempted only an approxi-
mation to accuracy.
It is exceedingly difficult to avoid mistakes in printing
a work containing so many figures, even when the copy is
complete. Several errors escaped the notice of both the
proof-reader and compiler, which are corrected at the end of
the volume. While some who have been addressed have
promptly replied and rendered all the aid in their power in
transmitting records and collecting facts, others have neg-
lected for weeks and months, and even years, the answers
they might have given at once, and many have never an-
swered at all.
It is to be regretted that a few families have been so sep-
arated from their relatives that no trace of them and their
descendants has been found. Still, with few exceptions, we
think it will be found that a full and accurate record is given.
There are, of course, many of the younger generation now
on the stage,- who have been born during the seven years that
have transpired since the preparation of the work com-
menced, whose .names are not included.
The special thanks of the compiler are due to several
persons who have kindly aided him in his researches.
To Isaac Chapman, Esq., of East Haddam, who although

substantial aid and encouragement, it is much to be doubted
whether the work would ever have been published.
To Mr. Nathaniel Goodwin, of Hartford, for useful
hints in regard to the general plan of the work.
Also, to George M. Chapman, Esq., of Brooklyn, N. Y.,
and to William P. Chapman, of New York city, for the

town clerks and clerks of probate, who have allowed the
compiler free access to their records.
Note. It is the particular request of the compiler, that
where mistakes are discovered in the genealogical record of
individuals or families, a correction may be promptly for-
warded to him, that it may be entered in a preserved copy,
and serve to render a future edition more complete ; and also,
that births, marriages and deaths which occur hereafter, may
be sent, and thus the record be continued for the benefit of
succeeding generations.

OUTLINE HISTORY OF SAY-BROOK.
As Robert Chapman was one of the first settlers of Say-Brook,
some notice seems to be demanded, in a work like this, of the causes
which led to the settlement.
The settlement of New England resulted from religious tyranny. ^
Under the reign of the Tudors and the Stuarts, many left their
native land to enjoy civil and religious freedom, in the, then, solitudes
and wilds of America. Required, in their own country, to conform
to rites and ceremonies, in their view, inconsistent with the true wor-
ship of God, they resolved to forego all the privileges and endear-
ments of home, that they might serve their Maker in a manner
conformable to the dictates of their own consciences. They came not,
to this country, to accumulate property, to acquire renown, or live
in ease and splendor. Their motives and aims were vastly higher,
viz., to obey God and prepare themselves for heaven.
"With these aims and motives, and with firm trust in God ; with
fortitude and cheerfulness they encountered the perils of the ocean,
and the toils and sufferings incident to landing upon an inhospitable
coast, and subduing the wilderness, in the presence of a severe cli-
mate and cruel savages. Li the year 1620, a band of these adven-
turers landed on Plymouth Rock, and, in 1629, a company arrived
under Mr. John Endicot, and settled Salem and Charlestown. The
year following, several other towns were settled, in Massachusetts.
In 1633, Rev. Thomas Hooker, of Chelmsford in the county of
Essex in England, taking with him Mr. Samuel Stone, a lecturer at
Torcestershire, in Northamptonshire, for an assistant in the minis-
try, came to Boston, in the Grifiin, a ship of about 300 tons. With
him came over the famous Jolm Cotton, Mr. John Haynes, after-
ward govemior of Connecticut, Mr. Golf, and two hundred other
2

INTRODUCTION.
passengers of importance to the colony. They arrived on the 4th
of September, 1633. Mr. Hooker and a part of this company pro-
ceeded to Newtown, now Cambridge, where they were received, cor-
dially, by others that had located themselves there, a short time
before. Mr. Hooker was chosen their pastor, and Mr. Stone their
teacher. On the 11th of October, the church was gathered, and
after solemn fasting and prayer, the pastor and teacher were ordain-
ed to their respective offices. The church at Watertown had been
gathered on the 27th of August, 1630, and Mr. Philips ordained
their pastor. Mr TVarham, with his church and congregation, came
over about the same time. Tlie church was organized previous to
their leaving England, and Mr. Warhani chosen pastor, and Mr.
Maverick their teacher, and they settled at Dorchester.
In June, 1635, Mr. Hooker and his congregation came across the
wilderness and settled Hartford, Mr. "Warham and his people settled
"Windsor, Mr. Philips and his congregation settled at Wethersfield,
according to the prevailing opinion, the year previous. The above
towns, then, included Glastenbury, East Hartford, and East Windsor.
The inhabitants of these towns soon agreed upon a constitution of
civil government for themselves, and such as should afterward be
joined to them. This was the begijming of the government of Con-
necticut. About the time of the settlement of these towns, a fort
was erected at Say-Brook, under Governor John Winthrop, and a
settlement commenced there. The town originally included Killing-
worth, Chester, West-Brook and most of the town of Lyme, and was
a distinct government from Connecticut, until 1644.
About two years previous to the settlement of the towns on the river,
John Oldham from Dorchester and three men with him, had trav-
eled across the wilderness to Connecticut, to view the country and
trade with the Indians. The same year the Dutch entered the river
and established a fort, at Hartford, and William Holmes from Plym-
outh, within whose jurisdiction Connecticut was regarded as belong-
ing, sailed up the river, in defiance of their remonstrances, and
erected a house at Windsor. This led to a contest between the Dutch
and English, which finally resulted in the foimer abandoning the
river.
A fort, at the mouth of the river, was deemed important, as a mat-
ter of safety, to the towns on the river, and to protect the company
from future aggressions.
On the 8th of October, 1635, Mr. John Winthrop, son of Gover-
nor Winthrop of Massachusetts, arrived at Boston, with a commission

from Lord Say and Seal, Lord Brook and other noblemen and gentle-
men, interested in the Connecticut Patent, to erect the intended forti-
fication. Their lordships sent over men, ordnance, ammunition and
2,000 pounds sterling, for the accomphshment of their design. In
August previous, twenty men arrrived in Massachusetts, sent over by
Sir Eichard Saltonstall, to take possession of a large quantity of
land in Connecticut, and to make settlements under the patent of
Lord Say and Seal, with whom he was a principal associate.
These twenty men under the direction of Winthrop, late in the
winter of 1635-6, or very early in the succeeding spring, repaired to
the mouth of the river and erected the fort.* They were, soon after,
reinforced by John Underbill and nineteen men, who were sent to
their assistance, to prevent their being overpowered by the Lidians.
Great were the hardships, and numerous the privations, of these
early settlers at Say-Brook.
About the beginning of October, the enemy, concealing themselves
in the high grass, in the meadows, surprised five of the garrison at
Say-Brook as they were carrying home their hay. One of them by
the name of Butterfield, was taken and tortured to death. The rest
of them made their escape and entered the fort, one of them having
had five arrows shot into him. It was this circumstance that gave
it the name of Buttei-field's Meadow, which it still retains.
But a few days after the above occurrence, one Joseph Tilly, a
master of a small vessel, was captured by the Indians, when proceed-
ing down the river. He anchored two or three miles above the fort,
and, taking a canoe and one man with him, went a fowling. Imme-
diately, on discharging his piece, a large number of Pequots arising
from their concealment, took him, and killed his companion. Tilly,
being a man of uncommon strength and energy, determined to show
himself superior to the tortures, they might inflict upon him. They
treated him in the most barbarous manner, first cutting off his hands
and then his feet, and so, gradually, torturing him to death. But he
died without a struggle or a groan. The enemy kept up a constant
watch upon the river, and the settlers at Say-Brook. A house had
been erected about two miles from the fort and six of the garrison
were sent to keep it. As three of them were fowling, at a small dis-
tance from the house, they were suddenly attacked by nearly an
hundred of the Pequots, and two of them were taken. The other

INTRODUCTION,
cut his way through them, sword in hand, and made his escape,
wounded with two arrows.
Before winter, the garrison were so pressed by the enemy, that
they were obliged to keep, ahnost wholly, within the reach of their
guns.
The Pequots destroyed all the out-houses, burnt the stacks of
hay, and ravaged everything, which was not within command of the
fort. The cattle belonging to the garrison were killed or wounded.
Some of them came home, with the arrows of the enemy sticking in
them. The fort was but little better than in a state of siege, durinej
the whole winter. The enemy so encompassed it about, and watched
all the motions of the garrison, that it was dangerous, at any time, to
go out of the reach of the cannon.
As spring arrived, they became still more mischievous and trouble-
some. They kept such a constant watch upon the river that men
could not pass up and down, with any safety, without a strong guard.
They waylaid the roads and fields, and kept Connecticut in a state
of constant fear and alarm. Li March, Lieut. Gardiner, who com-
manded the fort at Say-Brook, going out with ten or twelve men to
burn the marshes, was waylaid by a narrow neck of land, and as
soon as he had passed the narrow part of the neck, the enemy rose
upon him and killed three of his men. The rest made their escape
to their fort ; but one of them was mortally wounded, so that he died
the next day. Gardiner himself received a slight wound. The
enemy pursued them, in great numbers, to the very fort, and encom-
passed it on all sides. They challenged the English to come out and
fight, and mocked them in the groans, pious invocations and dying
language of their friends. The cannon loaded with grape-shot, were
fired upon them, and they were dispersed.*
Some time after this, the Indians, in a number of canoes, beset a
shallop, which was going down the river, with three men on board.
The men fought bravely, but were overpowered with numbers. The
enemy shot one through the head with an arrow, and he fell over-
board ; the other two were taken, tortured, cut and mangled in the
most shocking manner, and hung up, by the neck, upon the river's
bank, that, as the English passed by, they might behold the miserable
objects of their vengeance.
So great was the annoyance of the Indians to the whites, particu-

larly upon the river, that the Court met iu February, 1637, to take
efficient measures for subduing them. Capt. Mason was soon dis-
patched with twenty men to reinforce the garrison, and to keep the
enemy at a greater distance. After his arrival at the fort, the In-
dians made no farther attacks upon it, but appeared very much to
withdraw from that quarter.
Soon after this, Underbill, who had been appointed in the preced-
ing fall to keep garrison at Say-Brook, was sent from Massachusetts
with twenty men, to reinforce the garrison. On their arrival, Capt.
Mason and his men returned, immediately, to Hartford.
A special court was summoned, at Hartford, on the 1st of May, to
devise means for the defense of Connecticut from the common enemy.
They voted the raising of ninety men, forthwith, in Hartford, Weth-
ersfield and Windsor. These Avere furnished with the necessary sup-
plies, and with Mason for their commander, fell down the river in a
pinnace and a shallop for Say-Brook, on the 10th of the same month.
The company consisted of ninety Englishmen, and about seventy
Mohegan and river Indians, commanded by Uucas their sachem.
The troops arrived at Say-Brook on the 15th. The Mohegans, at
their urgent request, were set on shore before they arrived at Say-
Brook. They fell in with about forty Pequots on their march, and
killed seven and took one prisoner. They put him to death in a
most barbarous manner ; he having before been received kindly at
the fort, and in a most perfidious manner betrayed the English, and
been the cause of most of the attacks and murders that had ah-eady
occurred. On the 19th of May, Mason proceeded, with his company
by water, to Narraganset, and formed, with the Indians there, a junc-
tion for the purpose of avenging the murder of their countrymen
by the Pequots. He marched with his company, consisting of sev-
enty-seven Englishmen, sixty Mohegans, and 200 Narragansets, for
Mystic, the head-quarters of the enemy. He was joined by others
on the march, until his entire force amounted to about 500 men.
AiTiving at Mystic in the following night, they surprised the Pe-
quots in their fort. So sudden was the attack, and so unprepared
were they for defense, that at morn, the entire garrison were cut to
pieces,- the fort burned to the ground, and five or six hundred In-
dians perished by the sword or in the flames.*
So completely was the power of the enemy broken, by this disas-

ter, that they never after rallied, in sufficient force, to offer any seri-
ous annoyance to the settlers upon the river. The conquest of the
Pequots struck all the, Indians, in New England, with terror, and
they were seized with such fear of the displeasure and arms of the
English, that they had no open war with them for forty years. There
was a general rejoicing throughout the colonies. A day of thanks-
giving was appointed, and all the churches of New England sent up
their songs of praise to him, who had given them the victory, and the
prospect of future peace and prosperity.
As Rohert Chapman was one of the band of adventurers, who es-
tablished the fort at Say-Brook, and was a sharer in the events which
have been narrated, it was deemed proper to introduce the previous
account of the early settlement of the town where he resided until
his decease, a period of more than fifty years.
At this distance of time, the descendants of those early settlers,
scattered up and down in the land, and now numbering not less prob-
ably than 100,000, in the enjoyment of all the blessings conferred
by science and the arts, by civil and religious freedom, can not, fully,
realize what they suffered, nor how great is their indebtedness for the
legacy conferred upon them.
They were men of undaunted courage, indomitable resolution, firm
religious principle, and most of them possessing, for their time, supe-
rior mental cultivation, men from whom none of their descendants
need blush to have derived their origin.
" Just men they were,
And all their study bent,
To worship God aright and know his works,
Not hid, nor those things least which might preserve
Freedom and peace to man."
HISTORY OF THE CHAPMAN FAMILY.
The name Chapman is of Saxon origin. A large class of sur-
names among the Anglo-Saxons, is derived from *trades, or occupa-
tions.
The Saxon word fOeapman, means a Chapman, marketman, a
monger or merchant.

The surname Chapman occurs among the earliest of English
surnames, and the family, in many of its branches, was somewhat
what distmguished at an early period. Not a few of them still
-occupy prominent stations in the British Empire. In the year 1298,
John Chapman was returned to Parliament as Burgess for Chippen-
ham. *In 1307, Peter Chapman was returned Burgess for Derby.
In 1309, John Chapman returned for Surrey. In 1307, Robert
Chapman returned for Preston, and in 1311 for Steyning, and in
1321, for Taunton, and in 1322 for Taunton, to the Parliament at
York. In 1311, Philip Chapman, returned for Taunton, and "Wil-
liam Chapman for Bridge water. In 1313, John Chapman, returned
for Chippenham. In 1315, for Warwick, and in 1325 for Hereford.
In 1324, Geoffrey Chapman returned for Cambridge. In 1315,
"William Chapman returned for Downton, and in 1325, for Seaford.
In 1326, John Chapman was appointed, by Parliament, to attend the
array and muster of the Hundred of Loose, in the county of Suffolk,
on Thursday, the 24th of April, after the Feast of St. George. At
the same time and place, Robert Chapman, of the township of Fram-
lingham, was also appointed to attend the array and muster.
fPeter Chapman, ironmonger, gave £60 to the eight prisons in
and about London.
JA letter appears from Simon Archbishop of Canterbury, to John
Chapman, one of his clergy in 1430, and to "William Chapman of
London, in 1438.
In 1534, Thomas Chapman takes the oath of fidelity, on hiS in-
duction to the chair of sacred theology. In 1553, George Chap-
man was appointed to a rectory in London, and in the same year
Thomas Chapman, " ad Rectoriam de Merston cicestren." Sir John
Chapman was High Sheriff of Sussex and Surrey in 1634. A spe-
cial commission was issued concerning the suppression of schism, in
London, in 1599, Henry Chapman being at that time alderman.
§Sir John Chapman, knight, of Tower street, was elected alderman
in 1679, and served in the office of high sheriff", the same year. In
1689, he was chosen lord mayor and died a few days before the ex-
piration of his term. He was the son and heir of Sir "William

prebend of Canterbury, as successor to Fotherly. He was a native
of the county of Norfolk, and was chaplain to the princess Elizabeth,
consort of the prince Frederick, elector palatine, and became arch-
deacon of Stowe, in Lincolnshire, and a prebendary of that church.
He died Sept. 6th, 1629, aged fifty-two, and was buried in this
cathedral, where there is a monument with his bust on it in white
marble, erected to his memory, and this inscription.

The following lines occur in English under the latter inscription.
" This soul too rich a prize for mortal race,
Endued with nature and the gifts of grace,
Once viewed this world, and, then in much disdain,
Left this void earth and now in glory reigns."
George Chapman, a distinguished poet, flourished in the seventeenth
century. After receiving a university education, he settled in London,
where the great luminaries of the time, Shakespeare, Jonson, Sidney,
Spenser and Daniel, became his familiar friends. He expected pre-
ferment from the patronage of the Walsinghams, and of Somerset
and Prince Henry, but all his hopes ended in disappointment. Be-
sides seventeen dramatic pieces, one of which was the famous mask
called the Temple, he translated Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, and at-
tempted Hesiod and Musa3us. Pope, who has borrowed much from
him without acknowledgment, calls him an enthusiast in poetry,
but the remark is invidious, as Chapman possessed respectable poet-
ical powers, and was a i^n of some genius. He died 1634, aged
seventy-seven.* His monument may be seen in the parish of St.
Giles.
John Chapman, D. D., a learned divine, flourished in the eight-
eenth century. He was educated at Eton and at King's College,
Cambridge, for the provostship of which he was an unsuccessful can-
didate. He obtained the livings of Mersham and Adlington, Kent,
from Archbishop Potter, to whom he was chaplain, and at the death
of this prelate, as his executor, he presented himself as one of the
primate's options, to the precentorship of Lincoln ; an appointment
which was confirmed by Chancellor Henley, but set aside by the
House of Lords. He died 14th of October, 1784, in his eightieth year.
His Avritings were. Remarks on Dr. Middleton's letter to Waterland —
Eusebius, two vols. 8vo., in which he defended Christianity against
Morgan and Tindal — History of Ancient Hebrews vindicated — two
tracts relating to Phlegon in answer to Dr. Skye's briefs, sermons
and other things, and a joint edition of Cicero De OfBciis with Bish-
op Pearce.t
In a time of great scarcity in England, of breadstuffs, occasioned
by excessive rains and inundations in the seventeenth year of the
reign of Henry YL, a special commission was given by the king to
Robert Chapman, merchant of the city of York, recommending him

to the favor and patronage of Eric, king of Denmark, Sweden, Nor-
way, Gothland, &c., and begging that he would aid him, in his efforts
to procure a supply of grain, within his dominions, as it was a
time of abundance there. This commission was dated Feb. Gth,
1439.*

There are known to be, at the present time, in England, not less
than twenty clergymen of the established church, of the name of
Chapman.
It is a singular fact, that while the name of Chapman occurs in
the records referred to, for several centuries back, in different shires
and counties of England ; the Christian name of Robert has been

found only in Yorkshire. It occurs, frequently, as a prevailing fam-
ily name in that shire, which goes very far to confirm the family
tradition, that Robert Chapman, who came to Boston in 1635, and
to Say-Brook, the succeeding spring, came from Hull, in Yorkshire.
There are not less than sixteen different families or branches of
the great Chapman family, designated by their respective coats of
arms.
Those of Cambridgeshire and Yorkshire and London, are in the
main alike, a crescent, — the crest being a dexter arm embowed, habit-
ed in mail, holding in the hand a broken tilting sj^ear enfiled with a
chaplet, of laurel, as appears in the engraving ; with the motto
" Crescit sub poudere virtus ;" Virtue increases under aflliction. (See
engraving at the head of the genealogy.)
The following account of the Chapman family, taken from Burke's
Peerage, supplementary volume, 1848, p. 65, is inserted here, as the
name of Robert occurs often, and there is little room to doubt, that
it is the family with which our common ancestor was connected,
although we are not able to give the name of his father. As a stig-
ma attached to those who left their country, under the banner of
Puritanism, the same care was not taken to retain their names in
family registers, as was the case with those who continued residents
until their death. Those who left were soon forgotten, and hence the
extreme difficulty of tracing any connection between the early settlers
of our country and their ancestors, in the father-land, especially, if
those who left their ancestral home, had not been in any way distin-
guished, before leaving. The majority of the Puritan settlers were,
like our ancestoi", in the morning of life, and consequently had en-
joyed no opportunity to fill stations of importance, whei-e they could
perform public acts which would be matter of record.

ded at Whitby and in Yburndale, prior to the year 1400, as appears
from the registers and rolls of Whitby Abbey.
The late Sir Thomas Chapman, und Admiral Chapman of Stveden
belonged to the family. This family, (we quote an old family
manuscript,) was settled, at or near Whitby, in the time of Henry
III.,* as appears by ancient records, and in the time of Richard II.
some of them were prosecuted and imprisoned, by the abbot of
Whitby, for maintaining their just rights and privileges, but were
soon set at liberty, by the abbot, without paying any fees. They in-
creased much in a century or two, and many of them were in the
parliamentary army.
Roger Chapman and John Chapman were of Yburn near Whitby
in the county of York, in 1381, fromf one of whom descended Rob-
ert Chapman, temp, of Henry VIIL, who died Dec. 2d, 1607, and

trace the descendants of Robert of Say-Brook, and have kept them
distinct from the descendants of the other stocks, had not the firsi
three generations been recorded on the Say-Brook records.
Being himself town-clerk for many years, his marriage and the
births of his children, and of most of his grand-children, are recor-
ded, in his own hand.
It has been gratifying to the compiler to find, that with few ex-
ceptions, the descendants of Robert Chapman have been men of in-
dustrious habits. While they have contributed their full proportion
to the agricultural, mechanical and commercial wealth of the land,
a goodly number of them have been men of cultivated minds — who
have honored the learned professions.

A BRIEF SKETCH OF THE CHARACTER, LIFE AND PUBLIC SER-
VICES OF ROBERT CHAPMAN, THE FIRST SETTLER.
Most persons take peculiar satisfaction in being able to trace their
lineage to remote ancestors ; in learning where they lived, and
through what scenes of prosperity and adversity they passed, and in
recounting the benefits which they conferred upon their posterity.
Nothing, definite, is known of Robert Chapman, previous to his emi-
gi'ation to this country. According to the family tradition, he came
from Hull in England to Boston, in 1635, from which place he sailed
in company with Lyon Gardiner, for Say-Brook, Nov. 3, as one of
the company of twenty men, who were sent over by Sir Richard
Saltonstall, to take possession of a large tract of land, and make
settlements, near the mouth of the Connecticut River, under the
patent of Lord Say and Seal as already stated. He is supposed to
have been about eighteen years of age.
After the Indians were subdued, deeming it safe to form plantations
at a distance from the fort, they proceeded to clear up the forests
and form a permnent settlement. For about ten years after leaving
England, according to a tradition in the family, he kept a journal.
It is to be regretted that, about twelve years after the establishment
ofi the fort, it was burned, and the records of those who occupied it
were lost. He was one of the particular friends of Col. George
Fenwick. That he was a man of influence, in the town of Say-
Brook, is evident from the fact, that, for many years, he held the
office of town-clerk, and clerk of the Oyster River quarter, and filled
many other important stations. He was for many years commission-
er for Say-Brook, and was elected as their deputy to the General
Court, forty-three times, and assistant nine times. He was, therefore,
a member of the legislature of the state at more sessions than any
other man, from the settlement of Say-Brook, to the present time.
The following list will show the number of times and dates of the
sessions he attended.
He was deputy to the General Court, which set at Hartford, accord-
ing to the colony records —

The colony records also show that each of his three sons were repre-
sentatives to the legislature : the eldest, twenty -two sessions ; the
second one, eighteen sessions ; the third, twenty-four sessions.
Robert Chapman seems to have been a soldier. Lieut. Col. Gar-
diner, in his " History of the Pequot War," speaks of him as a sen-
tinel in a skirmish on the neck, Feb. 22d, 1637, with the Indians,
and once as engaged in beating samp.f
It appears, from the records of Say-Brook, that Robert Chapman,

was a very large landholder, in the towns of Say-Brook and East
Iladdam. He also owned a very large tract of land, in Hebron,
leaving at his decease, to each of his three sons, fifteen hundred acres
in that town, which he received as one of the legatees of Uncas and ,
his sons.*
"A will of Attawauhood, third son of Uncas, is signed March 10th, 1676,
in Lyme, near Eight Mile Island, in Connecticut River. He gave to his sons a
large tract of land, apparently north-west of Say-Brook, with the condition
that if one died it should go to the survivor, and if both died, to their sister.
He also left them forty acres, at Podunk, and about half a mile square within
a tract which had, a little previously, been added to Hartford. These lands, if
his three sons died, were to revert to his wives. The rest of his property was
given away, in enormous tracts, to various white persons of Hartford, Say-
Brook and other places. Whole townships, as for instance those of Windham,
Mansfield and Canterbury, were included. A single grant covered an 100,000
acres, and the whole line of lands reached eighteen miles north and south, and,
in some places, east and west. The Indians, who then resided on his territo-
ries, he directed to leave them, and attach themselves to his father, Uncas.
His sons, he desired to live near Say-Brook, to be taught English by their
mother, and, at the end of four years, to be placed at an English school. Thir-
ty-five pounds, which were owing to him by certain whites, as well as the
rents of all the lands which he had left the boys, were to be expended, in their
support and education. He recommended his children, earnestly to all his
legatees, but more particularly to three, whom he mentioned by name, Robert
Chapman, William Pratt and Thomas Buckingham. For himself, he directed
that he should be buried at Say-Brook in a coffin, and after the manner of the
EngUsh."t
Robert settled himself, on a tract of land, in Oyster River, about
two miles west of Say-Brook fort, which has descended in the line
of the youngest son of each family, never having been bought or
sold, and is now occupied by George H. Chapman, Esq., who is the
youngest of the fifth generation. J
He was a man of exemplary piety, and, but a short time previous
to his decease, he wrote an address to his children, who were all
members of the church ; in which, it is said, he exhorted them to a
devoted life and to abide by the covenant, into which they had entered,
with God and his church. That document was in the hands of one

of his descendants, now on the stage, but it is to be regretted that
being lent a few years since, to a person out of the family, it was
never returned, and, we fear, is irrecoverably lost.
There is some doubt as to the town, in England, where Robert
was born. Some suppose it was Hull, the place where he embarked.
Others suppose that although he embarked from Hull, which was one
of the shipping ports, he was a native of Kent. It is the full belief
(for reasons already stated) of the compiler of this work, that he
was a native of Yorkshire, and that his father's name was either
John or Robert, and most likely the latter.
Robert's parents were Puritans. His mother, according to a tradi-
tion in the family, was particularly anxious to emigrate to this coun-
try, which his father opposed. She induced " Robin" first, and after-
ward his three sisters, to embark for the wilds of America, in the
hope that, when they were established in the new world, their father
would consent to accompany her across the Atlantic and join them.
There is no reason to suppose that she ever realized her hopes. Of
the sisters of Robert, (according to an ancient document in the pos-
session of the Bushnell family, in Say-Brook,) one married "William
Bushnell, the brother of Deacon Francis Bushnell ; another married
a gentlemen who removed, with her, to the West Indies ; and the
third died unmarried.

I have not been able to ascertain whom the other children of Lieut.
Wm. Bushnell married.
That he was a man of some note, in Say-Brook, is evident from
the fact, that he held several important offices of trust, in the town,
and was their representative, for several sessions, to the General Court,
and was appointed by that body, iiieutenant of the Train-band.
The records of the General Court show in what estimation Robert
Chapman was held by that honorable body.
The following extracts will not fail to interest his numerous de-
scendants.
At a session of the General Court, at Hartford, Oct. 3d, 1654,
an order was passed to fit out an expedition against the Narraganset
Indians. The following entry is found upon the journal.

Joux CnAriiAK, the eldest son of Robert Chapman, of Say-Brook,
married Elizabeth Ilawlej, sister of Joseph Hawley, of Stratford.
June 7, 1670, by whom he had^ln-ee children. She died May 10th,
1676. Mr. Chapman married iOT his second wife Elizabeth Bea-
mont, (Beman,) the daughter of William Beament, of Say-Brook, by
whom he had ten children. Of these eight were born in Say-Brook,
and two in East Haddam. The title of captain is given him in the
town and church records of East Haddam, and also in the records of
the secretary of state. That he was a man of considerable note in
the town of Say-Brook, and at East Haddam, after his removal, is
evident from the fact that he rei^resented the fonner town in the Gen-
eral Court, at fourteen sessions, and the latter at eight sessions.
At the session of the General Court which convened May 10th,
1694, the following act was passed; "This Court grants liberty to
Capt. John Chapman to set up a ferry over the Great River in Had-
dam for the future ;" hence the name Chapman's Ferry. The pro-
bate recox'ds of Hartford, and the town records of East Haddam and
of Hebron, show that he owned large tracts of land in each of said
towns. He died, as is supposed, in the spring of 1712. His estate
was settled by the court of probate, at Hartford, April 8th, 1712.
His second wife, Elizabeth Chapman, died October 30th, 1694.

Joseph Chapsiax, the son of John Chajiman, born July, 1673,
married a lady whose Christian name was Sarah, but whose family
name I have not been able to ascertain. He resided in the town of
Say-Brook. The following curious deed from him to the Rev. Aza-
riah Mather, of Say-Brook, is found on the records, viz., " I, Joseph
Chapman, for and in consideration of the love, good will and affection
which I have and bear, and continue to bear toward my loving friend,
the Rev. Mr. Azariah Mather, do give, grant and confirm unto him
the said Azariah Mather, his heirs and assigns forever, one 50 pound
right in the corn-pasture," &;c.
Previous to his decease, he made a will, appointing his sons, Jona-
than and Simeon Chapman, his executors. His death transpired in
1732, and on the 21st of November of said year his will was exhibited
and approved. His property he bequeathed to his "loving wife Sa-
rah and his children, Jonathan, Simeon, Levi and Ruth, having given
his eldest son Joseph his portion during his lifetime." The time of
Mrs. Chapman's death is not found on record.

Samuel Chap3IAn, son of John Chapman, was born at East Ilad-

town of Say-Brook, within the limits of Chester parish. He married
at Say-Brook. The Christian name of his wife was Mary. The
name of her family is not known. Mr. Chapman, as appears from
deeds of land on the Say-Brook records, removed to Salisbury, about
the year 1740, and afterward he resided in Stonington, as appears in
a deed of land to Joshua Bushnell, dated July 11, 1745. He soon
after returned to Say-Brook, where he died in the month of July,
1747. After his decease his wife was appointed administratrix of his
estate by the court of probate, which sat at Guilford, Sept. 9, 1747.
She exhibited an inventory of his estate to the court, Oct. 9, 1747,
amounting to £230, 18s. Qd. After the discharge of the debts due
from the estate, the use of the remainder was granted to the widow
during her natural life, and as no children are mentioned in the set-
tlement of the estate, it is presumed Mr. Chapman died without issue.
The time of Mrs. Chapman's decease is not known.

* At the session of the Legislature, in May, 1776, he was appointed Major of
Militia, and at the session in the fall. Colonel. The following notice, taken from
Green's Gazette of September IS, 1776, shows the regard of the ladies of East
Haddam for their townsman, while absent on military duty, and is a handsome
tribute to their patriotism and physical energy. " Several of the most respecta-
ble ladies of East Haddam, about thirty in number, met at Colonel Jabez Chap-
man's barn, and husked, in four or five hours, about two hundred and forty
bushels of corn. A noble example, so necessary in this bleeding country, while
their fathers and brothers were fighting the battles of the nation." — Hinman\

THIRD GENERATION.

Robert Chapman, Jr., the second son of the first settler, was
born in the montli of September, 1G46, at Say-Brook, Conn., and
was extensively engaged in agriculture. He owned at the time of
his decease not less than 2,000 acres of land, in Say-Brook, East
Haddam and Hebron, as appears from the probate records at New
London. The town records, as well as the records of the secretary
of state, abundantly show, that he was a man of extensive influence,
in civil affairs. lie was for many years, clerk of Oyster River Quarter,
and commissioner and surveyor for the town of Say-Brook. But a
short time after his father's decease, he was elected representative to
the state legislature, which office he filled, at eighteen sessions. The
following extract from the state records, will show the years of his
attendance as a member of that honorable body, viz.

But his highest encomium is, that he "walked with God." He,
early in life experienced a change of heart, and connected himself
with the church, under the ministry of the Rev. Thomas Bucking-
ham, the successor of Rev. James Fitch, who had, previously, re-
moved with part of his church to Norwich, Conn. The estimation
in which he was held by the church, is evinced by the fact, that
they appointed him as their delegate to the assembly that formed
the Say-Brook Platform in 1708; a work which, for nearly a ceutu-

ry and a half, has served to preserve the purity and order of 'the
Congregational churches of Connecticut. To have been a member
of that body, is a higher honor than could have been conferred by
any merely civil trust. Mr. Chapman was twice married : 1, to
Sarah Griswold, (who was probably a daughter of Lieut. Francis
Griswold,) of Norwich, July 27, 1671, by whom he had nine chil-
dren. Mrs. Sarah Chapman died April 7, 1692. 2, to Mary Shea-
ther, relict of Samuel Sheath er, of Kenilworth, (KiUingworth,)
October 29, 1694. By her he had four children.
He died suddenly, in the court-room, at Hartford, soon after the
opening of the November session in 1711.
His tombstone stands in the old burial-ground, in Hartford, in the
rear of the Center church, about a rod north of the monument, on
which are inscribed the names of the first settlers of Hartford ; with
this inscription. " Here lyeth the body of Robert Chapman, who
departed this life November ye 10th, 1711, Aged 65 years." Sev-
eral of his numerous children died in infancy. But four of them
married and raised families, and yet his descendants number more
than the aggregate of both his brothers, John and Nathaniel.
The date of Mrs. Mary Chapman's decease is not known. A
large number of their descendants have been persons of standing
and influence, in the learned professions, and eminent as members of
the household of faith.

Rev. Jedediah Chapman, son of Robert Chapman fourth, born
at East Haddam, September 27, 1741. Graduated at Yale College,
in the class of 1762. He entered immediately upon the study of
Theology. In a )^ar and a half from that time, he was licensed to
preach the gospel, and was ordained and installed pastor of the
Presbyterian church, at Orangedale, N. J., in the year 1766. In
the year 1800, he removed to Geneva, in the state of New York, as
a stated missionary of the general assembly. He spent about twelve
years from that date, in preaching in diiFerent places, and founding
churches, in the infant settlements of western New York, and was
installed senior pastor of the Presbyterian church at Geneva, July
8, 1812, and died about ten months after his. installation. He was
seized with his last illness, while in the pulpit, preaching from 2
Timothy 4 : 7, 8 ; "I have fought a good light, I have finished my
course, I have kept the faith : Henceforth there is laid up for me a
crown of righteousness, which the Lord the righteous Judge, shall
give me at that day ; and not to me only, but unto all them, also,
that love his appearing." A fit termination of a laborious, exempla-
ry and devoted life, in tlie cause of Christ. His mantle has fallen
upon his descendants. His descendants are numerous in the Empire
State, and in the western and southern states. An unusually laro-e
number of them have been, and are professional men, and briglit and
shining lights in the church of God. Mr. Chapman was twice mar-
ried: 1, to Miss Blanche Smith. By her he had three children.
Mrs. Blanche Chapman died in November, 1773, at Orangedale,
N. J. The followmg is the inscription u])on her monument.
" Heie rests the body of Mrs. Blanche Chapman, the wife of the Rev. Jede-
diah Chapman, who died Nov., 1773, in the 29th year of her age.
" For thee in truth, though once so dear,

Pangs, which a tender husband feel ;
When thus, the young, his joy, the just,
Consume and moulder into dust.
These balsams' faith, alone, can give
Which tell us that the dead shall live,
That death his conquest, shall restore.
The just shall meet and part no more."
2, he married Miss Margai-etta Le Conte, by whom he had three
children. Mrs. Margaretta Chapman died September 9, 1812, at
Geneva, N. Y. The following is the inscription on her monument.
" Mrs. Margaretta Chapman, daughter of Dr. Peter Le Conte, and wife of
the Rev. Jedediah Chapman, born at Monmouth, N. J., died September 9th,
1812, in the 74th year of her age. Precious in the sight of the Lord is the
death of his saints."
Inscription on the Eev. Jedediah Chapman's tombstone at Ge-

installed at Orangedale, N. J., 1766 ; instahed Senior Pastor of the Pres. Church
of Geneva, July S, 1812, died May 22, 1813, in the 73d year of his age. He
removed to this village in ISOO, as stated Missionary of the General Assembly,
and, in that capacity, with a truly apostolic spirit, planted many of the church-
es, in the infant settlements of this country. He was a zealous advocate of the
Christian religion, a faithful defender of the doctrines of grace, and exhibit-
ed the purity of the gospel in his life.
" He lived respected, he died lamented. ' Blessed are the dead which die in

Hannah Chapman, daughter of Robert Chapman, the settler,
born October 4, 1650, was married to David Bull, December 27,
1677, being twenty-seven years of age. She appears to have had no
male heirs. Three daughters are found recorded in the town rec-
ords of Say-Brook, one of whom died in infancy. The following in-
denture between John Chapman, the eldest brother of Hannah, and
her husband, David Bull, is inserted as a curiosity :
"This indenture made, the five and twentieth day of April, in the fourth
year of the Reign of our Sovereign Lord, James the Second, King of England,
Scotland, France, and Ireland, Defender of the Faith &c., between David Bull
of Saybrook, in the county of New London, on the one part and John Chaj)-
raan Esq. of Saybrook, on the other part, witnesseth. That as well for and in

Deacon Nathaniel Chapman, son of Robert Chapman, born
February 16, 1G53, was twice married : 1, to Mary Collins, of Guil-
ford, June 29, 1681, by whom he had four children. The date of
Mrs. Mary Chapman's decease has not been found. 2, to Hannah
Bates, supposed to be the sister of Samuel Bates, of Say-Brook, July
26, 1698, by whom he had five children. Deacon Nathaniel Chap-
man died April 5, 1726, aged 73. His widow, Mrs. Hannah Chap-
man, died December, 1750, aged 83. His will and inventory ap-
pear in the Appendix, Note E.
That he was held in high estimation by his fellow-citizens, is evi-
dent from the fact that he was for many years deacon of the church
in Say-Brook, and represented the town in the General Court, at
twenty-four sessions.
He was a very large landholder, as appears from the records of
the town of Say-Brook, and of the Oyster River Quarter. He owned
fifteen hundred acres in Hebron, which he received by inheritance
from his father, and presented to his son, the Rev. Daniel Chapman,
of Fairfield, Green's Farms, Conn. On the decease of his father, he
inherited the paternal homestead, and left the same, by his will, to
his youngest son, Caleb, reserving to his widow, the use of one-
third of his personal estate, and of his housing and lands, and the
right of occupying the homestead, with the said Caleb Chapman,
during her natural life, and making her and his two sons, John and
Nathaniel Chapman, executrix and executors. His tombstone, a
plain slab of slate, may be seen in the ancient burial-ground at
Say-Brook, as also that of his second wife, Hannah.

and their age, from which the years of their birth are inferred. Den-
nie is named in deeds, as brother of the others. On page 534 of vol.
8, of Fairfield town records, is a deed from " Joseph Scott, of Bos-
ton, and Elizabeth his wife, to our brother Dennie Chapman, of Fair-
field, of a piece of land which was set out to said Elizabeth, as a part
and portion of the estate of Rev. Daniel Chapman, deceased, signed,

Mass., of a piece of undivided land, lying with land that belongs to
Mary Chapman, dated June 14, 1748, Also, on page 369 of vol.

four cliildren. In obedience to the call of his country, in that mem-
orable struggle which resulted in the independence of our country,
he entered the army and signalized himself as a soldiei*. He was
appointed ensign, and then drum-major, in which capacity he served
until, as appears by the records of the Secretary of State, he was ap-
pointed lieutenant, which took place September 25, 1777. "When
somewhat past the age of 40, and previous to his second marriage,
he was afflicted with an inflammation of the eyes which resulted in
total blindness.
He was, according to the testimony of his compeers and those of
a later generation who knew him well, a man of strong native talents,
uncommon vivacity and cheerfulness, an agreeable companion to
both the old and the young, who sought and cultivated his acquaint-
ance.
His fondness for society, which was reciprocated by a large circle
of neighbors and friends, served to' relieve, in a great measure, the
gloom and loneliness which often results from the loss of sight.
He was for many years before his decease, a member of the Con-
gregational Church. He lived on the place of his nativity, about
half a mile east of the Congregational Meeting-house in "West Brook,
now occupied by his son, Gideon Chapman. He died October 16,
1833, aged 80. Mrs. Jemima Chapman died in 1837, at Hudson,
New York.

it is sufficient to say that lie shared the highest honors of his class,
with the Hon. Roger M. Sherman.
After he was graduated, he taught for a time in the academy of
North Salem and also Norwalk, and continued to teach while in the
practice of his profession.
He studied his profession with Hon. Tapping Reeve, of Litchfield,
and was admitted to the bar in 1795, and settled in the practice of
law at Newtown, Fairfield county, Conn., and was repeatedly elect-
ed the representative of that town to the General Assembly of the
state, and in 1817, was elected a member of the governor's council,
comprising at that time twelve members. In 1818, he was elected
judge of the superior court and court of errors, which office he held
until his death.
He married at Newtown, September 2, 1798, Miss Mary Perry,
the daughter of Bennet Perry, M. D., by whom he had four chil-
dren, three sons and one daughter. In the autumn of 1824, he re-
moved from Newtown to New Haven, where he opened a law school,
but which, owing to his declining health, he was obliged to relinquish ;
and after two journeys to the Springs, and through the Canadas, he
returned to New Haven, where he died September 25, 1825. His
widow, Mrs. Mary Chapman, survived him nearly twenty-five years,
and died in Brooklyn, L. I., at the residence of her son, March 21,
1850. It has been remarked by Professor SiUiman, "that he kept
up, through life, in a remarkable degree, a fresh acquaintance with
his collegiate studies," and by the Hon. Thomas Day, that '• he pos-
sessed a vigorous and discriminating mind." He was attentive to
business, and prompt in the performance of official duty.

born June 30, 1789, is the youngest of the sixth generation, from
Robert, through the line of Deac. Nathanael Chapman. He com-
menced life as a teacher. With the small avails from teaching a
district school one term, he commenced trade. As his means in-
creased he fitted himself out as a traveling merchant. He pursued
his vocation with untiring zeal, energy and success. Having trav-
ersed repeatedly the then states of the south and west, and accum-
ulated sufficient means, he established himself as a wholesale dealer
in dry goods and fancy articles in the city of Boston, and after some
fifteen or twenty years of successful trade in that city, and having
established his eldest two sons in the same business, he retired to the
paternal homestead, in Oyster Eiver, some ten years since, having
in the mean time, greatly enlarged it by the addition of adjoining
lands, and improved it by the erection of a large and substantial
edifice and out-buildings, and enriched the lands by culture, making
it the handsomest and best tilled farm in Old Say-Brook, and an
honor to our distinguished ancestor, who fii'st occupied the same site.
Mr. Chapman married Miss Lucia TuUy, the fifth daughter of Elias
and Azubah Tully, (who was of the sixth generation from John TuUy,
who died in England in 1644 or 1645, and the fifth generation from
his son John, the first settler of the name, in Say-Brook,) November
3, 1814, by whom he has five children. He has represented the
town of Say-Brook in the Legislature, and been honored by his fel-
low-citizens with other important offices of trust.

August 22, 1785, has been twice married: 1, to Catharine Rozette,
March 9, 1809, by whom he had six children ; 2, to Eliza (Chap-
man) Ingersoll, widow of Jonathan Ingersoll, and daughter of Titus
Chapman, June 29, 1825, by whom he has had eight children. He
at present resides in the city of Brooklyn, New York, and from the
tune he left his father's house in 1801, has always been engaged in
mercantile, commercial and moneyed concerns, either on his own ac-
count or as an agent for others, and, in all probability, had he pos-
sessed a miserly disposition, would now have been worth millions ;
but such was not the bent of his mind. As an accountant, he has
but few equals. He, many years since, published a large work en-
titled, " Chairman's Interest Tables" a work evincing great industry
and accuracy in figures, and which, from the time of its publication,
has proved an efficient aid in large business transactions. Not a
morning comes but finds him busy, in reading or writing. A few
years since, he employed his early morning hours, in copying the
Old and New Testament, which was completed in less than one
year, and is now bound in quarto, a most beautiful volume. It was
his desire to have bound with this volume, as full a genealogical
♦table of his ancestors as could be gathered, that led him to soUcit the
author of this work to prepare and publish " The Genealogy of the
Chapman Family." He has also copied the old standard New Eng-
land version of Watts' Psalms, for which he has always evinced a
decided preference, as superior in his view, to the modern versions.*
He was one of the leading few who projected and organized the
Marine Temperance Society of the Port of New York, and the
iirst certificate ever presented to a sailor for signature, was written
* Mr. Chapman thinks, (and in this opinion is not alone,) that the couplet
of Oliver Arnold would not very inaptly apply to those modern divines who
have undertaken to improve Watts by sundry alterations and additions. " In
a bookseller's shop in New Haven, Arnold was introduced to Joel Barlow, who
had, just then, acquired considerable notoriety by the publication of an altered
edition of Watts' Psalms and Hymns. Barlow asked for a specimen of his
talent, upon which the \vandering poet immediately repeated the following
stanza :
" You've proved yourself a sinful cre'tur,
You've murdered Watts and spoilt the meter ;
You've tried the word of God to alter,
And for your pains deserve a halter."

Rev. Frederick W. Chapman, son of Abisha Chapman, born

1821. He entered immediately upon a course of study preparatory
to college, under the instruction of Deac. Elizur Wright, a graduate
of Yale, of the class of 1781. He entered Yale in the fall of 1824,
and graduated in the class of 1828. He taught the academy at
Sharon one year, when he entered the Theological Seminary and grad-
uated in the class of 1832. Having received a unanimous call from
the Congregational Church in Stratford, Conn., about three months
previous to the close of his theological course, he was ordained and
installed, September 5, 1832. He married, May 6, 1833, Emily Hill,

Nathauael Chapman. By her he has three children. Having re-
ceived a unanimous call from the Church at Deep River, Conn.,
he resigned his pastoral charge at Stratford, and was dismissed, May
16, 1839, and installed at Deep River, May 29, 1839. After serv-
ing the latter church about eleven years and six months, he received
a unanimous call from the Church in South Glastenbury. He was
dismissed at Deep River, October 1, 1850, and installed at Glasten-
bury, the 24th of the same month, where he now resides. Mr.
Chapman's father died young, and he being left without means, was
obliged to rely, principally, upon his own exertions, in procuring a
collegiate and theological education. Knowing the trials of such a
course, he has aided several young men in fitting for college, by hear-
ing them recite in their preparatory studies, without any charge.
Throughout his entire ministry, he has been occupied, most of the
time, in the instruction of youth, either in private classes or in select
schools. During a period of little more than twenty years, between
five and six hundred pupils have shared his instructions, for a longer
or shorter period of time, over thirty of whom have entered the
learned professions.

GENEALOGICAL NOTES OF WILLIAM CHAPMAN, ONE
OF THE EARLY SETTLERS OF NEW LONDON,
CONNECTICUT.
At the commencement of tliese researches it was sujDposed that
William Chapman, of New London, might be a near relative of
Robert Chapman of Say-Brook, but on further investigation, no evi-
dence has been found that they were kinsmen. It is not known from
whence William came. He appears first on the New London rec-
ords, in 1657.
In the book of town grants, appears the following: "William
Chapman hath given him thirty ackers of upland bounded towards
the south with Mr. Douglas his land, and towards the east with the
small brook that leads to Jordan River, and towards the north with
Arkaubukie* Meadow, and towards the west with a ledge of rocks
and a tree marked on four sides." The above grant was made at a
meeting in 1G63.
At a town-meeting, August 25, 1091, it was " Voated that where-
as William Chapman had formerly allowed him by the town tlu-ee
pounds for his sexton's place by the yeare, they now add forty shil-
lings more and order him five pounds per year for sweeping the meet-
ing house and galleries and ringing the belL"
He died the 18th of December, 1G99.
The following is a copy of his will presented in the court of pro-
bate soon after his decease. It furnishes the only clue to the names
of his children, as they are not recorded in the town records :
" The last Will and Testament of William Chapman, of New London.
" T William Chapman of New London senior, being sick and weak of body,
but threw the goodness of God, in perfect memory and good understanding, do
make this my last Will and Testament revoking and making void all others :

Chapman of Selden's regiment, Wadsworth's brigade, was a man of
strength and stature beyond the common standard, and as a soldiei*

the marksman, or the force of a cannon-ball ! He was slain in what
was called the orchard fight, near Harlem, when the army was re-
treating from New York, September 15, 1776. His son James, a

four children. The following account of his death is found in Miss
Caulkins' New London, page 577. " July 2, 1788, Capt. John Chap-
man and nine other persons, chiefly emigrants from Ireland, were
drowned within twenty rods of the shore of Fisher's Island. The
disaster was occasioned by the upsetting of two boats ; one of them
being deeply laden, was filling with water, and her people all seizing
hold of the other, that also filled and sank. Capt. Chapman had just
arrived with a company of emigrants, (probably about twenty,) and
some of them being sick, he was attempting to land them on the
island, where a tent was to be erected in which they might perform
the necessary period of quarantine. Capt. Chapman had served in
the Revolutionary War, both in a naval and military capacity. He
was a brother of Major James Chapman, who fell at Harlem Heights
in 1776, and of Lieut. Richard Chapman, slain in Fort Griswold,
in 1781."

Enoch Chapman, of Norwich, Conn., one of the descendants : " The Christian
name of the Mr. Chajmian who was father of the above John Chapman the
settler, I have not bee:i able to learn. He lived some fifty miles from London,
and married Johanah or Joanna Sumner. Their son John was by trade a
weaver, having served seven years to learn, and being on a visit to London,
was pressed on board a man-of-war. After some time, the ship visited Boston,
New England, and the said John availed himself of an opportunity to assume
the liberty of which he had been deprived ; he fled and found succor in the
abode of Samuel Alden, in what is now called Wakefield, in Rhode Island,
where he worked at his trade. A while afterward, we find him in what is
now North Stonington, where he married Sarah Brown, according to the town
records, February 16, 1710."

GENEALOGICAL NOTES OF REV. BENJAMIN CHAPMAN,
OF SOUTHINGTON, CONNECTICUT.
The descendants of Rev. Benjamin Chapman are unable to give
any account of his parentage. The prevailing belief among them,
hovfever, is that he originated from Say-Brook. The author of this
work has taken unwearied pains to ascertain who his parents were,
but has failed. He may have been born in Say-Brook, and yet his
name, for some cause, not have been entered in the register of births.
It is the case with many families, that several of the older children
are recorded, while the younger are not found there, either because
the parents removed before their birth, or became negligent in report-
ing their names and births to the town-clerk. In most instances, the
writer has been able to ascertain the names and births of such as are
not on the Say-Brook town records, from other sources.
The following facts in regard to the subject of this brief sketch,
have been obtained from the records of the church in Southington,
and from his grandson, the Hon. Reuben A. Chapman, of Springfield,
Mass. He graduated at Princeton, in the class of 1754, and was or-
dained and installed at Southington, (then the Third Church in
Farmington, Conn.,) March 17, 1756. He officiated as the pastor of
that church upward of eighteen years, being dismissed September 28,
1774. He continued, after his dismission, to reside in Southington
until his decease, a period of nearly twelve years. He married Miss
Abigail Riggs, of Derby, and had, by her, eight children.
Mr. Chapman was esteemed by his cotemporaries, as a sound and
useful minister of the gospel. His death transpired, according to
Southington records, June 22, 1786, his age being 61. Mrs. Abi-
gail Chapman died October 10, 1782, aged 54.

Hon. Reuben A. Chapman, son of Mr. Samuel Chapman, born
September 20, 1801, is an eminent lawyer in Springfield, Mass.
Although he never graduated at college, he is a gentleman of high
attainments in literature and science, in consequence of which, he
was some years since admitted an honorary member of the Phi Beta
Kappa Society of Yale College. At the time of his admission it
was remarked in the hearing of the writer, by Professor Porter,
of Yale College, and the Hon. Mr. Bates, of Massachusetts, that
"he stands at the very head of the legal profession in Hampden
county."
It is no small tribute to his legal abilities, that he was appointed,
in 1849, in company with Judge Curtis and the Hon. N. J. Lord, to
revise and reform the proceedings in the Massachusetts courts of
law, and that with those gentlemen, he prepared the code of practice
now in use in that state.
He was elected by the last legislature, a member of the Board
of Overseers of Harvard College.
He married, June 2, 1829, Miss Elizabeth Knox, of Blandford,
Mass., by whom he has three children.

"East Hampton, June 12, 1G60.
" Loving Friends, Robert Chapman and Thomas Hurlburt, my love re-
membered to you both, these are to inform, that as you desired me when I
was with you and Major Mason at Seabrooke, two years and an half ago, to
consider and to call to mind the passages of God's Pro^^dence at Seabrooke,
in and about the time of the Pequit [Pequot] war, wherein I have now
endeavored to answer your Desires, and having rumaged and found some
old papers then written, it was a great help to my memory. You know that,
when I came to you, I was an Engineer or Architect, whereof carpentry is a
little part, but you know I never could use all the tools, for, although for my
necessity, T was forced, sometimes, to use my shifting chissel,and my hold fast,
yet you know I could never endure nor abide the smoothing plane ; I have
sent you a piece of timber scored and fore-hewed, unfit to join to any hand-
some piece of work, but seeing I have done the hardest work, you must get
somebody to chip it and to smooth it lest the splinters should prick some men's
fingers, for the truth must not be spoken, at all times, though, to my knowl-
edge, I have written nothing but truth, and you may take out or put in what
you please, or, if you will, may throw it all into the fire ; but I think you may

" Your loving friend
LION GARDENER."
"In the year_ 1635 I Lion Gardener, Engineer and Master of works of
Fortifications in the legers of the Prince of Orange in the Low Countries,
through the persuasion of Mr. John Davenport, Mr. Hugh Peters, with some
other well aflected Englishmen of Rotterdam, I made an agreement with the
forenamed Mr Peters, for £100 per annum for four years, to serve the com-
pany of patentees, namely the Lord Say, the Lord Brooks, [Brook,] Sir Ar-
thur Hazelrig, Sir Matthew Bonnington, [Bonighton,] Sir Richard Salting-
stone, [Saltonstall,] Esquire Fenwicke, and the rest of their company, [I say,]
I was to serve them, only in the drawing, ordering and making of a City,
Towns or forts of defence. And so I came from Holland to London, where
I was appointed to attend such orders, as Mr John Winthrop Esquire, the
present Governor of Conectecott, was to appoint whether at Pec[uit [Pequot]
river or Conectecott and, that we should choose a place, both for the conve-
nience of a good harbor, and also for capableness and fitness for a fortification.
But I landing at Boston the latter end of November, the aforesaid Mr Win-
throp had sent before one Lieut Gibbons, Sergeant "VVillard, with some car-
penters, to take possession of the Rivers mouth, where they began to build
houses against the spring, we expecting according to promise, that there
would have come from Ensjland to us 300 able men, whereof 200 should
attend fortification, 50 to till the ground, and 50 to build houses. But our
great expectation at the Rivers mouth came only to two men, viz. Mr Fen-
wiek, and his man, who came with Mr Hugh Peters and Mr Oldham and
Thomas Stanton, bringing with them some Otterskin coats and Beaver, and
skeins of wamjium which the Pequits [Pequots] had sent for a present, be-
cause the English had required those Pequits [Pequots] that had killed a Vir-
ginean [Virginian] one Capt Stone with his Barks crew, in Conectecott
River ; for they said they would have their lives and not their presents ;
then I answered Seeing you will take Mr Winthrop to the Bay, to see his
wife, newly bi-ought to bed of her first child, and seeing though you say he
shall return yet I know, if you make war with these Pequits he will not
come hither again, for I know you will keep yourselves safe, as you think in
the Bay, but myself, with these few, you wiU leave at the stake to be roasted
or for hunger to be starved ; for Indian coi'n is now 1 2s. per bushel, and we
have but three acres planted, and if they will now make war for a Yirginean
and expose us to the Indians, whose mercies are cruelties ; they, I say, they
love the Virgineans better than us ; for have they stayed these four or five
years, and will they begin now, we being so few in the Ri^-er, and have
scarce holes to put our head in V I pray ask the magistrates in the Bay if
they have forgot what I said to them when I returned from Salem ? For Mr

Winthrop, Mr Haines, Mr Dudley, Mr Ludlow, Mr Humphrey, Mr Belingam,
[Bellingham,] Mr Coddington, and Mr Nowell ; — these entreated me to go with
Mr Humfry and Mr Peters to view the country, to see how fit it was for fortifi-
cation, and I told them that nature had done more then half the work, already
and I thought no foreign potent enemy would do them any hurt, but^ one that
was near. They asked me who that was, and I said it was Capt Hunger that
threatened them most, for, [said I,] War is like a threefooted stool, want one
foot and down comes all ; and these three feet are men, victuals and muni-
tions ; therefore seeing in peace you are like to be famished, what will or can
be done if War ? Therefore, I think, said I, it will be best only to fight
against Capt Hunger, and let fortification alone awhile ; and, if need here-
after require it, I can come to do you any service ; and they all liked my
saying well. Entreat them to rest a while, till we get more sti'ength here
about us, and that we hear where the seat of war will be, may approve of it
and may provide for it, for I had but twenty four in all, men women, and
boys and girls, and not food for them for two months, unless we saved our
cornfields,* which could not possibly be if they came to war, for it is two
miles from our home. Mr Winthrop, Mr Fenwick and Mr Peters promised
me that they would do their utmost endeavor to persuade the Bay-Men, to
desist from war a year or two, till we could be better provided for it ; and
then the Pequit Sachem was sent for, and the present returned, but full sore
against my will. So they three returned to Boston and, two or three days
after, came an Indian from Pequit whose name was Cocommithus who had
lived at Plimoth, and could speak good English ; he desired that Mr Steven
[Stephen] Winthrop would go to Pequit, with an £100 worth of trucking
cloth, and all other kind of trading ware, for they knew that we had a great
cargo of goods, of Mr Pincheon's and Mr Steven Winthrop had the disposing
of it. And he said that if he would come he might put off all his goods, and
the Pequit sachem would give him two horses that had been there a great
while. So I sent the shallop with Mr Steven Winthrop Sergeant TUle, [Til-
ley,] (whom we called afterward Sergeant Kettle, because he put tlie kettle
on his head) and Thomas Hurlbui-t, and three men more, charging them
that they should ride in the middle of the River, and not go ashore till they
had done all their trade, and that Mr Steven Winthrop should stand in the
hold of the boat, having their guns by them, and swords by their sides, the
other four to be, two in the fore cuddie, and two In aft, being armed in like
manner, that so they out of the loop-holes might clear the boat, if they were
by the Peqults assaulted ; and, that they should let but one canoe come aboard
at once, with no more but four Indians in her, and, when she had traded, then
another and that they should lie no longer there than one day ; and, at night
to go out of the river; and if they brought the two horses, to take them In at
a clear piece of land, at the mouth of J:he River, two of them go ashore to help
the horses in and the rest stand ready, with their guns in their hands, if need

•were to defend them from the Pequits; for 1 durst not trust them. So they
went and found but little trade, and, they having forgotten what I charged
them, Thomas Hurlburt and one more went ashore to boil the kettle, and
Thomas Ilnrlburt stepping into the Sachem's wigwam, not far from the shore,
enquiring for the horses, the Indians went out of the wigwam, and Wincum-
bone, his mother's sister, was then the great Pequit sachem's wife, who made
signs to him that he should be gone, for they would cut off his head ; which,
when he perceived, he drew his sword and ran to the others and got aboard
and, immediately, came abundance of Indians to the water side and called
them to come ashore, but they immediately set sail and came home and this
caused me to keep watch and ward, for I saw they plotted our destruction.
And suddenly after came Cap' Turner and Cap' Undrill [Underbill,] with a
company of soldiers, well-fitted to Sea-brook, and made that place their ren-
dezvous or seat of war and that to my great grief, for said I you came hither
to raise these wasps about my ears, and then you will take wing and fly away ;
but when I had their commission I wondered and made many allegations
against the manner of it, but go they did to Pequit, and as they came without
acquainting any of us, in the River, with it, so they went against our will,
for, I knew that I should lose our cornfield ; then I entreated them to hear
what I would say to them, which was this ; Sirs seeing you will go, I pray
you, if you dont load your barks with Pequits, load them with corn, for that
is now gathered with them, and dry, ready to put into their barns and both
you and we have need of it, and I will send my shallop and hire this Dutch-
man's boat, there present, to go with you, and, if you cannot attain your end
of the Pequits, yet you may load your barks with corn which will be welcome
to Boston and to me. But they said they had no bags to load them with ;
then said I here is three dozen of new bags, you shall have thirty of them,
and my shallop to carry them, and six of them, my men shall use themselves,
fori will, with the Dutchman, send twelve men well provided; and I desired
them to divide the men into three parts, yiz two parts to stand without the
corn and to defend the other one third part that carried the corn to the water
side, till they have loaded what they can. And the men there in arms, when
the rest are aboard, shall, in order, go aboard, the rest that are aboard shall,
with their arms clear the shore, if the Pequits do assault them, in the rear,
and then, when the General shall display his colors, all to set sail together.
To this motion they all agreed, and I put the three dozen of bags aboard my
shallop, and away they went, and demanded the Pequit Sachem to come into
parley. But, it was returned for answer that he was from home, but, within
three hours he would come ; and so from three to six, and thence to nine>
there came none. But the Indians came without arms to our men, in great
numbers, and they talked with my men, whom they knew, but, in the end, at
a word given, they all on a sudden ran away from our men, as they stood in
rank and file, and not an Indian more was to be seen ; and all this while, be-
fore, they carried all their stuff away and thus was that great parley ended .
Then they displayed their colors and beat their drums, burnt some wigwams
APPENDIX. 329
and some heaps of corn, and my men carried as much aboard as they could,
but the army went aboard, leaving my men ashore which ought to have
marched aboard first. But they all set sail, and my men were pursued by
the Indians and they hurt some of the Indians, and two of them came home
wounded. The Bay-men killed not a man, save that one Kichomiquin [Cuts-
hamequin] an Indian Sachem of the Bay, killed a Pequit, and thus began
the war between the Indians and us in these parts. So my men having come
home, and having brought a pretty quantity of corn with them, they informed
me (both Dutch and English,) of all passages. I was glad of the coi-n. After
this I immediately took men and went to our cornfield to gather our corn,
appointing others to come about with the shallop and fetch it, and left five
lusty men in the strong house with long guns which house I had built for the
defence of the corn. Now these men, not regarding the charge, I had given
them three of them went a mile from the house a fowling; and, having loaded
themselves with fowl, they returned. But the Pequits let them pass first
till they had loaded themselves, but, at their return, they arose out of their
ambush and shot them all three ; one of them escaped through the corn, shot
through the leg, the other two they tormented. Then the next day I sent
the shallop to fetch the five men and the rest of the corn that was broken
down, and they found but three, as above said, and when they had gotten that,
they left the rest ; and, as soon as they were gone a little way, from shore,
they saw the house on fire. Now so soon as the boat came home, and brought
us this bad news, old Mr Mitchell was very urgent with me to lend him the
boat to fetch hay home from the six mile Island, but I told him they were
too few men, for his four men could but carry the hay aboard, and one must
stand In the boat to defend them, and they must have two more at the foot of
the Rock, with their guns, to keep the Indians from running down upon them.
And in the first place, before they carry any of the cocks of hay, to scour the
meadow with their three dogs — to march, all abreast, from the lower end up
to the Rock, and if they found the meadow clear, then to load their hay ; but
this was also neglected, for they all went ashore and fell to carrying off their
hay, and the Indians, presently, rose out of the long grass and killed three
and took the brother of Mr Mitchell who is the minister of Cambridge and
roasted him alive ; and so they served a shallop of his coming down the river
in the Spring, having two men, one whereof they killed at Six Mile Island,
the other came down drowned to us ashore at our doors, with an arrow shot
into his eye, through his head.
" In the 22d of February, (1637,) I went out with ten men and three dogs,
half a mile from the house, to burn the weeds, leaves and reeds upon the
neck of land, because we had felled twenty timber trees, which we were to
roll to the water-side to bring home, every man carrying a length of match
with brimstone, with him, to kindle the fire withal. But when we came to
the small of the neck, the weeds burning, I having before this set two senti-
nels on the small of the neck. I called to the men, that were burnino- the
reeds, to come away, but, they would not until they had burnt up the rest of
28*
330 APPENDIX.
their matches. Presently, there starts up four Indians out of the firy reeds,
but ran away, I calling to the rest of our men to come away out of the marsh.
Then Robert Chapman and Thomas Hurlburt, being sentinels, called to me,
saying there came a number of Indians out of the other side of the marsh.
Then, I went to stop them that they should not get the wood-land; but
Thomas Hurlburt cried out to me that some of the men did not follow me,
for, Thomas Rumble and Arthur Branch threw down their two guns and
ran away ; then the Indians shot two of them, that were in the reeds, and
sought to get between us and home, but durst not come before us, but kept
us in a half moon, we retreating and exchanging many a shot, so that Thomas
Hurlburt was shot almost through the thigh, John Spencer in the back, into
his kidneys, myself through the thigh ; two more were shot dead. But in
our retreat I kept Hurlburt and Spencer still before us, we defending our-
selves with our naked swords, or else they had taken us all alive, so that the
two sore wounded men, by our slow retreat got home with their guns, when
our two sound men ran away, and left their guns behind them. But, when
I saw the cowards that left us, I resolved to let them draw lots which of them
should be hanged, (for the articles did hang up in the hall for them to read,
and they knew they had been published long before.) But, at the interces-
sion of old Mr Mitchell, Mr Higgisson, [Higginson,] and Mr Pell, I did
forbear. Within a few days after, when I had cured myself of my wound,
I went out with eight men to get some fowl for our relief, and found the guns
that were thrown away, and the body of one man shot through ; the arrow
going in at the right side, the head sticking fast, half through a rib on the
left side, which I took out and cleansed it, and preserved to send to the Bay,
because they had said that the arrows of the Indians were of no force.
"Anthony Dike, master of a bark, having his bark at Rhode Island, in the
winter, was sent by Mr Vane, then Governor. Anthony came to Rhode
Island, and, from thence, he came with his bark, to me, with a letter, where-
in was desired that I should consider and prescribe the best way I could, to
quell these Pequots, which I also did, and, with my letter, sent the man's rib
as a token. A few days after, came Thomas Stanton, down the river and
staying for a wind ; while he was there came a troop of Indians within
musket shot laying themselves and their arms down, behind a little rising hill
and two great trees ; which I perceiving, called the carpenter whom I had
shown how to cliarge and level a gun, and that he should put two cartridges
of musket bullets, into two sakers guns that lay about, and Ave leveled them
against the place, and I told him that he must look towards me, and when he
saw me wave my hat above my head, he should give fire to both the guns :
then presently came three Indians creeping out and calling to us to speak
with us : and I was glad that Thomas Stanton was there, and I sent six men
down by the Garden Pales, to look that none should come under the hills
behind us, and having placed the rest in places convenient, closely, Thomas
and I with my sword, pistol and carbine, went ten or twelve pole without the
gate to parley with them. And when the six men came to the garden pales,
at the corner, they found a great number of Indians creeping behind the fort,

331
or betwixt us and home, but they ran away. Now I had said to Thomas
Stanton, whatsoever they say to you, tell me first, for we will not answer
them directly to any thing, for I know not the mind of the rest of the Enjjlish.
So they came forth, calling us nearer to them, and we them nearer to us.
But I would not let Thomas go any further than the great stump of a tree,
and I stood by him ; then they asked who we were, and he answered, Thom-
as and Lieutenant. But they said he lied, for I was shot with many arrows;
and so I was, but my buff-coat preserved me ; only one hurt nie. But when
I spake to them they knew my voice for one of them had dwelt three months
with us, but ran away when the Bay-men came first. Then they asked us
us if we would fight with Niantecut Indians, for they were our friends and
came to trade with us. We said we knew not the Indians, one from another,
and, therefore would trade with none. Then they said have you fought
enough? We said we knew not yet. Then, they a^ked, if we did use to
kill women and children ? We said they should see that hereafter. So
they were silent a small space, and then, they said we are Pequits and have
killed Englishmen, and can kill them as mosquetoes, and we will go to Con-
ectecott, and kill men, women and children, and we will take away the
horses, cows and hogs. When Thomas Stanton had told me tiiis, he prayed
me to shoot that rogue, for, said he, he hath an Engh'shinans coat on, and
saith that he hath killed three, and these other four hive their clothes upon
their backs. I said no, it is not the manner of a parley, but have patience
and I shall fit them ere they go. Nay, now oi ne\er, said he ; so when he
could get no answer but this last, I bid him tell them tint they should not go
to Conecticott, for if they did kill all the men and take all the rest as they
said, it would do them no good, but hurt, for English women are lazy and can't
do their work ; horses and cows will spoil your corn fields, and, the hogs
their clam-banks and so undo them ; then I pointed to our great house, and
bid him tell them there lay twenty pieces of trucking cloth, of Mr. Pii>fheons,
with hoes, hatchets and all manner of trade, they were better fight still with
us, and, so get all that, and then go up the river after they had killed us.
Having heard this they were mad as dogs, and ran away ; then when they
came to the place from whence they came, I waved my hat about my head,
and the two gi-eat guns went off so that there was a great hubbub amongst
them. Then two days after, came down Capt Mason and Sergeant Seeley,
with five men more, to see how it was with us ; and whilst they were there,
came down a Dutch boat teUing us the Indians had killed fourteen Enghsh,
for, by that boat I had sent up letters to Conectecott, what I heard and what
I thought, and how to prevent that threatened danger, and received back
again rather a scoff, than any thanks for my care and pains.
" But as I wrote so it fell out to my great grief and theirs, for the next, or
second day after, (as Major Mason well knows,) came down a great many
canoes, going down the creek, beyond the marsh, before the fort, many of
them having white shirts ; then I commanded the carpenter, whom I had
showed to level great guns, to put in two round shot into the two sackers,
332
APPENDIX.
and we levelled tliein at a certain place, and I stood to bid him give fire ;
■when I thought the canoe would meet the bullet, and, one of them took ofT the
nose of a great canoe wherein the two maids were that were taken by the
Indians, whom I redeemed and clothed, for the Dutchmen, whom I sent to
fetch them, brought them away almost naked from Pecjuit, they putting on
their own linen jackets to cover their nakedness ; and, though the redemp-
tion cost me ten pounds, I am yet to have thanks for my care and charge
about ♦hem ; these things are known to Major Mason.
" Then came from the Bay Mr Tille, with a permit to go up to Harford
[Hartford,] and, coming ashore, he saw a paper nailed up over the gate,
whereon was written, that no boat or bark should pass the fort, but, that
they come to an anchor first, that I might see whether they were armed and
manned sufficiently, and they were not to land any where after they had
passed the fort, till they came to Wethersfield ; and this 1 did because Mr
Mitchell had lost a shallop, before coming dowii from Wethersfield, with
three men well armed. This Mr Tille gave me ill language, for my pre-
sumption, (as he called it,) with other expressions, too long here to write.
When he had done I bid him go to his ware-house, which he had built before
I came, to fetch his goods from thence, for I would watch no longer over it.
So he knowing; nothin" went and found his house burnt, and one of Mr
Plums, with others, and he told me to my face that I had caused it to be done ;
but Mr Higgison, Mr Pell, Thomas Hurlburt and John Green can witness
that, the same day that our house was burnt at Cornfield point, I went with
Mr Higgisson, Mr Pell, and four men more, broke open a door and took a
note of all that was in the house, and gave it to Mr Higgisson to keep, and
so brought all the goods to our house, and delivered it all to them again,
when they came for it without any penny of charge. Now the very next
day after I had taken the goods out, before the sun was quite down and we
all together in the great hall, all them houses were on fire in one instant.
The Indians ran awj^y, but, I would not follow them. Now, when INIr
Tille had received all his goods, I said unto him, I thought I had deserved
for my honest care both for their bodies and goods, of those that passed by
here, at the least better language, and am resolved to order such malpert
persons as you are ; therefore, I wish you and also charge you to observe
that, which you have read at the gate, ' tis my duty to God, my Master and
my love I bear to you all, which Is the ground of this had you but eyes to
see it ; but you will not till you feel it.' So he went up the river, and when
he came down again to his place which I called Tille's folly, now called Tilles
point, in our sight in despite, having a fair wind he came to an anchor, and
with one man more went ashore, discharged his gun, and the Indians fell
upon him, and killed the other and carried him alive over the river in our
sight, before my shallop could come to them ; for, immediately I sent seven
men to fetch the Pink down, or else it had been taken and three men more.
So they brought her down, and I sent Mr Higgisson and Mr Pell aboard, to
take an invoice of all that was in the vessel, that nothing might be lost.

333
Two days after came to me, as I had "written, to Sir Henerie Yane, then
governor of the Bay, I say came to me, Capt Undrill, [Underhill,] with
twenty lusty men, well armed to stay with me two months, or till something
should be done about the Pequits. He came at the charge of my masters.
Soon after came down from Harford, Major Mason, Lieut Seeley, accompa-
nied with Mr Stone and eighty Englishmen, and eighty Indians, with a com-
mission from Mr Ludlow and Mr Steele, and some others ; these came to go
fight with the Pequits. But when Capt Undrill [Underhill] and I had
seen their commission, we both said they were not fitted for such a design,
and we said to Major Mason, we wondered he would venture himself, being
no better fitted ; and he said the magistrates could not or would not send bet-
ter ; then we said that none of our men should go with them, neither should
they go unless we, that were bred soldiers from our youth, could see some
likelihood to do better than the Bay-men with their strong commission last
year. Then I asked them how they durst trust the Mohegin [Mohegan]
Indians, who had but that year come from the Pequits. They said they
would trust them, for they could not well go without them for want of guides.
Yea, said I, but I will try them before a man of ours shall go with you or
them ; and I called for Uncas, and said unto him, you say you will help
Major Mason, but, I will first see it, therefore send you now twenty men to
the Bass-River, for, there went yester-night six Indians In a canoe thither ;
fetch them now dead or alive, and then you shall go with Major Mason, else
not. So he sent his men who killed four, brought one a traitor to us alive,
whose name was Kiswas, and one ran away. And I gkve him fifteen yards
of trading cloth, on my own charge, to give unto his men according to their
desert. And having staid there five or six days before we could agree, at
last we old soldiers agreed about the way and act, and took twenty insufficient
men from the eighty that came from Harford, [Hartford,] and sent them up
again in a shallop, and Capt Undrill [Underbill,] with twenty of the lustiest
of our men went in their room and I furnished them with such things as they
wanted, and sent Mr Pell, the surgeon, with them, and the Lord God blessed
their design and way, so that they returned with victory to the glory of God,
and honor of our nation, having slain three hundred burnt their fort and
taken many prisoners. Then came to me an Indian called Wequash, and I,
by Mr Higgisson, inquired of him, how many of the Pequits were yet alive ^
that had helped to kill Englishmen ; and he declared them to Mr Higgison,
and he writ them down as may appear by his own hand here enclosed, and I
did as therein is written. Then three days after the fight came Waiandance,
next brother to the Old Sachem of Long Island, and, having been recom-
mended to me by Major Gibbons, he came to know if we were angry with
all Indians, I answered no, but, only with such as had killed Englishmen.
He asked me whether they that had lived ou Long Island, might come to
trade with us. I said no, nor we with them, for I should send my boat to
trade for corn, and you have Pequits with you and, if my boat should come
into some creek, by reason of lad weather, they might kill my men, and I
334
APPENDIX.
shall think that you of Long Island have done it, and so wc may kill all you
for the Pequits; but if you will kill all tlie Pequits that come to you and send
me their heads, then I will give to you as to Weakwash [Wcquash,] and you
shall have trade with us. Then said he I will go to my brother for he is the
Great Sachem of all Long Island, and if we may have peace and trade with
you, we will give you tribute as we did the Pequits. Then I said if you
have any Indians that have killed English, you must bring their heads also.
He answered not any one, and said that Gibbons, my brother, would have
told you, if it had been so; so he went away and did as I had said, and sent
me five heads, three and four heads for which I paid them that brought them
as I had promised.
" Then came Capt. Stoten [Stoughton] with an army of .300 men, from the
Bay to kill the Pequits ; but they were tied beyond New Haven to a swamp.
I sent Wequash after them, who went by night to spy out, and the army fol-
lowed him and found them at the Great Swamp, who killed some and took
others, and the rest fled to the Mowhakues [Mohawks] with their Sachem.
Then the Mohawks cut off his head and sent it to Hartford, for then they all
feared us, but now it is otherwise, for, they say to our faces, that our commis-
sioners meet once a year, and speak a great deal, or write a letter, and there's
all, for they do not fight. But before they went to the Great Swamp they
sent Thomas Stanton over to Long Island and Shelter Island to find Pequits
there but there was none, for the Sachem Walandance that was at PHmoth,
when the commissioners were there, and set there last, I say, he had killed so
many of the Pequits and sent their heads to me, that they durst not come to
these ; and he and his men went with the English to the swamp and thus the
Pequits were quelled at that time. But there was like to be a great broil
between Miantenomie [Miantunnomoh] and Unchus, [Uncas,] who should
have the rest of the Pequits, but we mediated between them and pacified them ;
also Unchus challenged the Narrasranset Sachem out to a single combat, but
he could not fight without all his men ; but they were pacified, though the
old grudge remained still, as it doth appear. Thus far I had written in a
book, that all men and posterity might know how and why so many honest
men had their blood shed, yea, and some flayed alive, others cut in pieces,
and some roasted alive, only because Kichamakin [Cutshamequin,] a Bay
Indian, killed one Peqult ; and thus far of the Peqult war, whieh was but a
comedy in comparison of the tragedies which hath been here threatened
since, and may yet come, If God does not open the eyes, ears, and hearts of
some that I think are, wilfully, deaf and blind, and think because there is no
change that the vision fails, and put the evil-threatened day far ofi", for say
they. We are now twenty to one to what we were then, and none dare med-
dle with us — Oh ! wo be to the pride and security, which hath been the ruin
of many nations as woful experience has proved.
" But I wonder, and so doth many more with me, that the Bay doth no better
revenge the murdering of Mr Oldham an honest man of their own ; seeing
they were at such cost for a Virginian. The Xarragansets that were at Block
APPENDIX. 335
Island killed him and liad £50 of gold of his for, I saw it when he had five
pieces of me and put it up into a clout and tied it up, all together, when he
went away from me to Block Island, but the Narragansets had it, and punch-
ed holes into it, and put it about their necks for jewels ; and afterwards I
saw the Dutch have some of it, which they had of the Narragansets at a small
rate.
" And now I find that to be true, which our friend "Waiandance told me,
many years ago, and that was this ; that seeing all the plots of the Narragan-
sets were always discovered, he said they would let us alone till they had
destroyed Uncas, and him, and then they with the Mowquaks and Mow-
hakues and the Indians beyond the Dutch, and all the Northern and East-
ern Indians, would easily destroy us, man and mother's son. This have I
informed the Governors of these parts, but all in vain ; for, I see they have
done as those of Wethersfield, not regarding till they were impelled to it by
blood, and thus we may be sure of the fattest of the flock are like to go first,
if not altogether, and then it will be too late to read Jer. xxv.— for drink we
shall if the Lord be not the more merciful to us for our extreme pride, and
base security, which, cannot but stink before the Lord ; and we may expect
this, that if there should be war again, between England and Holland our
friends at the Dutch and our Dutch Englishmen would prove as true to us
now, as they were, when the fleet came out of England ; but no more of that,
a word to the wise is enough.
" And now I am old, I would fain die a natural death, or like a soldier in
the field with honor, and not to have a sharp stake set in the ground and
thrust into my fundament, and to have my skin flayed off' by piece meal, and
cut in pieces and bits, and my flesh roasted and thrust down my throat,
as these people have done, and I know will be done to the chiefest in the
country by hundreds, if God should deliver us into their hands, as justly he
may for our sins.
"I going over to Neantecut upon the eastern end of Long Island, upon
some occasion that I had there, I found four Narragansets there, talking with
the Sachem and his old counsellors. I asked an Indian what they were ? He
said that they were Nai'ragansets, and that one Miantinomie [Miantunnomoh]
a Sachem. What came they for ? said I. He said he knew not for they
talked secretly ; so I dej^arted to another wigwam. Shortly after came the
Sachem Waiandance to me and said, Do you know what these came for ? No
said I ; then he said. They say I must give no more wampum to the English,
for they are no Sachems, nor none of their children shall be in their place
if they die ; and they have no tribute given them; there is but one King in
Enorland who is over them all, and if vou would send him 100,000 fathom of
wampum, he would not give you a knife for it nor thank you. And I said to
them, Then they will come and kill us all, as they did the Pequits ; then they
said No, the Pequits gave them wampum and beaver, which they loved so
well, but they sent it them again, and killed them because they had killed an
Englishman ; but you have killed none, therefore, give them nothing. Now
friend tell me what I shall say to them for one of them is a great man. Then,
336 APPENDIX.
said I, Tell them that you must go first to the farther end of Long Island and
speak with all the rest and a mouth hence you will give them an answer.
Mean time you may go to Mr Ilaines, and he will tell you what to do, and
I will write all this now, in my book, that I have here ; and so he did, and
the Narragansets departed, and this Sachem came to me, at my house, and I
wrote this matter to Mr Haines and he went up with it to Mr Ilaines, who
forbid lilm to give anything to the Narragansets, and writ to me so. And,
when they came again they came by my Island, and I knew them to be the
same men ; and I told them they might go home again and I gave them Mr
Haynes his letter for I\Ir Williams to read, to the Sachem. So they returned
back again, for I had said to them that if they would go to Mantacut, I would
go likewise with them, and that Long Island must not give wampum to Nar-
raganset.
" A while after this, came Miantenomie from Block Island to Mantacut, with
a troop of men. AVaiandance being not at home ; and, instead of receiving
presents, which they used to do, in their progress, he gave them gifts, calling
them brethren and friends, for so are we all Indians, as the English are, and
they say brother to one another ; so must we be one as they are otherwise
we shall be all gone shortly, for you know our fathers had plenty of deer and
skins, our plains were full of deer, as also our woods and of turkies and our
coves full of fish and fowl. But these English having gotten our land, they
with scythes cut down the grass and, with axes fell the trees ; their cows and
horses eat the grass, and their hogs spoil our clam banks, and we shall be
starved ; therefore it is best for you to do as we ; for we are all the Sachems
from East to West both Moquakues and Mohauks joining with us and we
are all resolved to fall upon them all, at one appointed day ; and therefore I
am come to you privately, first, because you can persuade the Indians and
Sachems to what you will, and I will send over fifty Indians to Block Island,
and thirty to you from thence, and take an hundred of Southampton Indians,
with an hundred of your own here ; and when you see the three fires that
wiU be made forty days hence, in a clear night, then do as we, and the next
day fall on and kill men, women, and children, but no cows for they will
serve to eat till our deer be Increased again. And our old men thought It
was well. So the Sachem came liome and had but little talk with them, yet,
he was told there had been a secret consultation between the old men and
Miantenomie, but, they told him nothing In three days. So he came over to
me and acquainted me with the manner of the Narragansets being there
with his men, and asked me what I thought of it ; and I told him that the
Narraganset Sachem was naught to talk with his men secretly in his absence,
and I bid him go home and told him a way how he might know all, and then he
should come and tell me ; and so he did, and found all out as is above writ-
ten, and I sent intelligence of It over to Mr Haynes and Mr Eaton ; but, be-
cause my boat was gone from home, it was 15 days before they had any let-
ter, and Miantenomie was gotten home before they had news of it. And the
old men when they saw how I and the Sachem had beguiled them, and that he
' APPENDIX. 337
was come over to me, they sent secretly a canoe over in a moon-shine night,
to Narraganset, to tell them all was discovered ; so this plot failed blessed
be God and the plotter, next spring after, died as Ahab died at Ramoth Gil-
ead. — So he to Mohegin, and there had his fall.
" Two years after this, Ninechrat sent over a captain of his who acted in
every point as the former ; him the Sachem took and bound and brought him
to me, and I wrote the same to Governor Eaton, and sent an Indian that was
my servant and had lived four years with me ; him, with nine more, I sent to
carry him to New Haven, and gave them food for ten days. But the wind
hindered them at Plumb Island ; then they went to Shelter Island, where the
old Sachem dwelt — Waiandance's elder brother, and in the night they let him
go only my letter they sent to New Haven, and thus these two plots were
discovered ; but now my friend and brother is gone who will now do the
like?
" But if the premises be not sufficient to prove Waiandance a true friend to
the English, for some may say he did all this out of malice to the Pequits and
Narragansets ; now I shall prove the like with respect to the Long Islanders,
liis own men. For I being at Mantacut, it happened that f jr an old grudge
of a Pequit, who was put to death at Southampton, being known to be a mur-
derer, and for this his friends bear a spite against the English. So as it came
to pass at that day I was at ilantacat a good honest woman was killed by
them at Southampton, but, it was not known then who did this murder. And
the brother of this Sachem was Shinacock. Sachem could or would not find
it out. At that time Mr Gosmorc and Mr Howell, being magistrates, sent an
Indian to fetch the Sachem thither ; and, it being in the night, I was laid
down when he came and being a great cry amongst them, upon which all
the men gathered together, and, the storv beinsr told, all of them said the
Sachem should not, for said they they will either bind you or kill you, and
then us, both men, women and children ; therefore let your brother find it
out, or let them kill you and us, we will live and die together. So there was
a great silence for a while and then the Sachem said. Now you have all done
I will hear what my friend will say, for [he] knows what they will do. So
they waked me as they thought, but 1 was not asleep, and told me the story,
but I made stransre of the matter and said. K the JIagistrates have sent for
you why do you not go ? They will bind me or kill me saith he. I think
so said I if you have killed the woman, or know of it and did not reveal it;
but you were here and did it not. But v/as any of your ]\Iantauket Indians
there to dav V Thev all ans^vered not a man these two davs, for we have
inquired concerning that already. Then said I, did none of you ever hear
any Indian say he would kill English V No said they all ; then I said, I shall
not go home till to morrow, though I thought to have been gone so soon as
the Moon was gone up, but I will stay here till you all know it is well with
your Sachem ; if they bind him, bind me, and if they kUl him kill me. But
then you must find out him that did the murder and all that know of it, them
they will have and no more. Then they with a great cry thanked me, and I
29
338 APPENDIX.
wrote a small note, with tlie Sachem, that they should not stay him long in
their hands but let him cat and drink and be gone, for he had his way before
him. So they did and that night he found out four that were conscnters to
it, and knew of it, and brought them to them at Southampton and they were
all hanged, at Hartford, whereof one of these was a great man among them,
commonly called the Blue Sachem.
" A further instance of his faithfulness is this ; about the Pequit war time
one William Ilamman [Hammond] of the Bay, killed by a Giantlike Indian
towards the Dutch. I heard of it and told Waiandance, that he must kill him
or bring him to me ; but he said it was not his brother's mind, and he is the
Great Sachem of all Long Island, likewise the Indian is a Mighty Great
man, and no man durst meddle with him, and hath many friends. So this
rested until he had killed another one Thomas Farringtoii. After this the
old Sachem died, and I spake to this Sachem again about it, and he answer-
ed, He is so cunning that when he hears that I come that way a hunting, that
his friends tell him and then he is gone. But I will go at some time when
no body knows of it, and then I will kill him ; — and so he did— and this
was the last act which he did for us, for in the time of a great mortality
among them he died, but it was by poison ; also two-thirds of the Indians
upon Long Island died else the Narragansets had not made such havock here
as they have, and might not help them. — And this I have written, chiefly, for
our good that we might consider what danger we are all in, and, also to de-
clare to the country, that we had found an heathen, yea, an Indian, in this
respect to parallel the Jewish Mordecai. But now I am at a stand for all
we English would be thought and called Christians ; yet tliough I have seen
this before spoken, having been there twenty four years, in the mouth of the
premises yet I know not where to find, or whose name to insert to parallel.
Ahasuerus lying on his bed and could not sleep, and called for the chronicles
to be read ; and when he heard Mordecai named, said, what hath been done
for him ? But who will say as he said, or do answerable to what he did ?
But our New England twelve-penny chronicle is stuffed witli a catalogue
of the names of some as if they had deserved immortal lame ; but the right
New England military worthies are left out for want of room as Maj. Mason,
Capt. Undrill, [Underhill,] Lieut. Sielly, [Seeley,] and who undei-took the
desperate way and design to Mistick Fort, and killed 300 burnt the fort, and
took many prisoners, though they are not once named. But honest Abram
thought it no shame to name the confederates that helped him to war, when
he redeemed his brother Lot : but Uncas of Mistick, and Waiandance at the
Great Swamp and ever since your trusty friend, is forgotten, and for our
sakes persecuted to this day with fire and sword, and Ahasuei-us of New
England is still asleep, and if there be any like to Ahasuerus, let him remem-
ber what glory to God and honor to our Nation hath followed their wisdom
and valor. Awake ! awake Ahasuerus, if there be any of thj- seed or spirit
here, and let not Haman destroy us as he hath done our Mordecai. And,
although there hath been much bloodshed, in these parts, among us, God and
APPENDIX. 339
we know it came not by us. But if all must drink of this cup that is threat-
ened, then shortly the Kng of Sheshack shall drink last, and tremble and fall
when our pain will be past. Oh that I were in the countries-again, that in
their but twelve year truce, repaired cities and towns made strong forts and
prepared all things, needful against a time of war like Solomon. I think
the soil hath almost infected me but what they or our enemies will do, here-
after, I know not. I hope I shall not live so long to hear or see it, for I am
old and out of date, else I might be in fear to see and hear that, I think, will
ere long come upon us.
" Thus far our tragical story, now to the comedy. When we were at sup-
per in the great hall they (the Pequits) gave us alarm to draw us out three
times before we could finish our short supper, for we had but little to eat, but
you know that I would not go out ; the reason you know. 2ndly. You
Robert Chapman, you know that when you and John Bagley were beating
samp at the Garden Pales, the sentinels called you to run in for there was
a number of Pequits creeping to you to catch you ; I hearing it went up to
the redoubt and put two cross-bar shot into the two guns that lay above, and
levelled them at the trees and boughs and gave order to John Frend and his
man to stand, with hand-spikes to turn them this or that way, as they should
hear the Indians shout, for they should know my shout from theirs, for it
should be very short. Then I called six men, and the dogs, and went out
running to the place, and keeping all abreast in sight close together. And
when I saw my time I said, stand ! and called all to me saying, Look on me ;
and when I hold up my hand, then shout as loud as you can, and when I
hold down my hand then leave ; and so they did. Then the Indians began a
lonf shout, and then went off the two great guns and tore the limbs of the
trees about their ears so that divers of them were hurt, as may yet appear,
for you told me when I was up at Hartford this present year 'GO in the month
of September, that there is one of them lyeth above Harford, that is fain to
creep on all fours, and we shouted once or twice more ; but they would not
answer us again, so we returned home laughing.
" Another pretty prank we had with three great doors of ten feet long and
four feet broad, being bored full of holes, and driven full of long nails, as
sharp as awl blades, sharpened by Thomas Hurlburt. These we placed in
certain places where they should come, fearing lest they should come in the
night and fire our redoubt or battery aud all the place, for we had seen their
footing, where they had been in the night, when they shot at our sentinels,
but could not hit them for the boards ; and in a dry time and a dark night
they came as they did before and found the way a little too sharp for them ;
and as they skipped from one they trod upon another, and left the nails and
door dyed with their blood, which you know we saw the next morning laugh-
ing at it.
" And this I write that young men may learn, if they should meet with
such trials as we met with there, and have not opportunity to cut off their
enemies ; yet they may with such pretty pranks preserve themselves from
danger — for policy is needful in war as well as strength."
340 APPENDIX.
NOTE r,.
The following statement in regard to the lands of the Hon. Eobert Chap-
man the settler, has been furnished l)y George II. Chapman, Esq., the young-
est of the descendants of the fifth generation, who now oceupies the Old
Homestead, in Oyster lliver. Old Saybrook:
" The Original Homestead of Ilobert the settler, judging from the vague
boundaries described in the lay-out, must have been a tract of four or five
hundred acres. The features of the land are such that within the compass of
such bounds, there are now thirty houses. The limits were, east on Oyster
Kiver, north on the Big Hill, west on the Little Hill, and south on the Sound
or sea-shore. These are very natural boundaries, and encompass a tract
fenced by a creek one hundred feet wide on the east, by the deep waters of
Long Island Sound on the south, by a creek and ridge of high land on the
west, and by a steep hill from fifty to one hundred feet, abrupt rise, on the
north. The spot was well chosen, being a perfectly level tract of good soil,
no where elevated much above the sea, and abounding with the purest water
by sinking wells ten or twelve feet. His first house was built about in the cen-
ter of this tract of level land, from which a few minutes' walk would bring him
to the shore, stored with shell-fish of all kinds, and which, to this day, yields
thousands of bushels yearly. The creeks at that day must have been replete
with plenty of salmon and shad. Many of the old pear and apple trees, of
enormous growth, have been in full bearing within the memory of the writer,
which were planted by Robert, our common ancestor. His favorite lot was
an Indian settlement, disforested and cultivated by the natives, when first vis-
ited by him. The soil is now full of shells and arrow-heads, and remains of
warriors have been disinterred in several instances. This lot is still in the
family, and rented to the public in the seasons for surf-bathing and sea-shore
recreations, being fitted up for that purpose. It is, indeed, a most desirable
place to visit in warm weather, having in front, a space of about one hundred
acres of strand, which at low water is bare, and forms hard and safe riding
ground, and at high tide is covered equally over the whole space, with about
four feet of water, pure from the ocean, without a spot in the whole tract
where the most timid could get beyond a safe footing. From a gallery, erected
on the shore, a view of over sixty miles may be had up and down Long
Island Sound ; that is, large ships may be seen distinctly, thirty miles each
way. Such was the resting-place of our Grand Progenitor. His youngest
son, Nathanael, succeeded to the domicile, and died in the first house. His
grandson Caleb was also born and died under the first roof, having rebuilt
the house in 1 740, covering the same in part, with the old roof boards. His
great-grandson Elisha was born in the rebuilt house the same year, and died at
the same spot in June, 1825, aged nearly eighty-five years. His great-great-
grandson George Henry was born in the same mansion in 1789, and by the
grace of God, is still living, aged sixty-five. Each son has been at the death-
APPENDIX. 341
bed of his father, and buried him out of sight, and administered upon his af-
fairs. Through this long line of ancestry and space of time, each hung upon his
father's lips, receiving the legends of the family, nothing doubting. George
H. made his father's house his home thirty-five years, until the decease of his
father Elisha, and never heard any variations in the traditions handed down.
Elisha never had any other house, until the age of forty-four, but his father
Caleb's house ; was taken care of by his grandmother, the wife of Nathanael,
until the age of ten, and doubtless remembered the account of Robert, directly
from her. She, very probably, was acquainted with the first settler himself,
or must have heard his history directly from her husband, Nathanael. When
it is considered how much interest all reflecting minds take in the place of
their births, and more especially, when every spot where they have lived,
called home, must have been familiar to a long line of ancestry, and the al-
most unbroken communication of one to another, from the present time, back
to the emigration of the first settler from the fathei'-land, two hundred and
twenty years ago, there remains not a doubt in the writer's mind, but the
story so often told for so long a time, so true to itself, is a correct tradition,
that our common ancestor was a citizen of Hull, Yorkshire, England, and left
that city at the age of eighteen years; that his father was a soap manufac-
turer by trade, in that city, and that he had a brother, who perished in the
wars in Flanders.'

weakness and infirmities, but, yet of sound mind and memory, tlianks be
given unto God therefor, calling to mind the mortality of my body, and,
knowing that 'it is appointed for all men once to die,' and concluding my
departure is at hand, do make and ordain this my last Will and Testament.
Principally, and first of all, I give and recommend my soul into the hands
of God, Father, Son and Holy Ghost, hoping for acceptance through Jesus
Christ. And my body I order to be buried in a decent Christian manner,
at the discretion of my Executors, nothing doubting but at the General Res-
urrection, I shall receive the same again by the mighty power of God, and as
touching such worldly estate, wherewith it hath pleased God to bless me in
this life, I give, devise and dispose of the same in the following manner, and
form ; my just debts and funeral charges being first paid out of my personal
estate.
'■'^ Imprimis, I give and bequeath to Hannah, my dearly beloved wife, one
third part of my personal estate forever (except what is hereafter excepted,)
I do also give unto her the use and improvement of one third part of my
houseing and land, at Oyster River, on the south side of the country road,
bounded north on the country road, east by the land of Samuel Chapman
and Joseph Chapman, south on the sea and Hagar's Creek, from thence run-
ning northward to the Head of said Creek, then eastward by the laud and
meadow of Joseph Chapman and Joshua Bushnell, during her widowhood.
"Item, I give and bequeath to my son Nathanael all the remainder of my
farm at Cook's Hill lying on both sides of the country road, part of which I
have before given him by deed of gift, and also all that parcel of my meadow,
on the west side of Hagar's creek, between the creek and the sea, running
westward to the meadow of Thomas Norton (except two acres hereafter dis-
posed of) together with the privilege of carting his hay from the meadow,
through that part of my land called the South field, at such time and place as
may least damage the improvement of said field, all which I give to him his
heirs and assigns forever.
•' Item, I having already given to my son Daniel Chajiman fifteen hundred
acres right, in the Township of Hebron, and also a fifty pound right in the
Oyster River Quarter, I do now also give him the whole of my divisions of
land, already laid out at the Head or branches of Deep River, in Oyster
River Quarter in Say-Brook abovesaid and also a division of thirty acres
agreed on to be laid out in Oyster River and all my right in the undivided
land in Pattaconk creek, and two acres of my meadow on the West side of
Hagar's creek, said two acres to be taken off at that end of the meadow, next
to the mouth of said creek, together >vith the privilege of carting from said
meadow, as is above granted to my son Nathanael.
" Item, I give and bequeath to my son John Chapman all my lands both
upland and meadow, at or near a place called and known by the name of
Treacle Hill, in Say-Brook, lying on both sides of the country road. I also
give him all my meadow at poochaug in Say-Brook, near the Island called the
358
APPENDIX.
Hawk's-nest, and having already given him a fifty pound right more making
up his right one hundred pounds, I also give him one feather bed and bolster,
one pillow, two blankets, two pair of sheets, my bigest gun or musket and
my harrow with iron tooth.
" Item, I give and bequeathe to my son Caleb Chapman, all my houseing
and land both upland and meadow, at Oyster River in Say-Brook aforesaid,
on the South side of the country road , bounded East by the land of Samuel
Chapman and Joseph Chapman, South on the sea and Ilagar's Creek, then
running by the Creek to the Head of it, then running Eastward by this mea-
dow and ujjland of Joseph Chapman and Joshua Bushnell, reserving only the
use of one third part of the aforesaid lands and housing for my wife during
her widowhood. I also give him all my land, in the Great orchard, and all
my land at Clai:)board Hill in said Say-Brook, and a fifty pound right in the
Oyster River Quarter, all which estate I give him freely to enjoy forever
with this proviso or consideration, viz. that he pay or cause to be paid, to his
sisters, the several legacies which I shall in an instrument hereafter order.
I also give to my son Caleb one yoak of oxen and Irons, one chain one scythe
and tackling one ax and howe and my small gun and sword.
" Item, I give to my daughter Mary, one half of my land at a place called
Old Iron Mine Plain, in Say-Brook, which I value at forty pounds, and, hav-
ing already given her, the value of fifty-four pounds. I do now give her six
pounds to be paid her by my son Caleb, within a year after my decease,
which will make up her portion one hundred pounds.
" Item, I give to my daughter Hannah, the other half of my land at the
Old Iron Mine Plain, which I value to her at forty pounds. I also give unto
her the money which is due unto me by bond from John Bushnell, together
with the interest thereof. I do also give unto her such a part of my personal
estate as shall (at the price it shall be valued at in the Inventory of my es-
tate) make up her portion the full sum of one hundred pounds.
" Item, I give and bequeath, to my daughter Anne, all the residue of my
personal estate, which is not otherwise particularly disposed of in this will,
which she is to receive at the price it shall be valued at, when apprized ac-
cording to law. And I do hereby order my son Caleb to pay unto her such
a sum as shall make up her portion one hundred pounds, one half of which
sum I order him to pay her, when she shall arrive at the age of eighteen years,
the other half when she shall accomplish the age of twenty-one years.
" Item, I give unto my four sons, before named, all my wearing apparel, to
be equally devided between them.
" Item, I give to my wife the use of my Groat Bible during her life and
after her decease I give it to my son Nathauael.
" Lastly, I do hereby nominate, constitute and appoint my dearly beloved
wife Hannah & my two sons, ISTathanael Chapman and John Chapman, to be
executrix and executors of this my Last Will and Testament, and I do hereby
utterly disallow, revoke, and disannul all former testaments, wills, legacies or
bequests, whatsoever, by me made or written, ratifying this, and this only as

A Brief Outline op the Life of Dr. Timothy M. Cooley, D. D.,
OF Granville, Mass., who married Content Chapman.
[See No. 131.]
" Timothy Mather Cooley, D. D., was born at Granville, Mass., March
13, 1 773, and was the seventh in descent from Benjamin Cooley of Springfield,
and seventh in maternal descent from Rev. Eichard Mather of Dorchester. At
the age of five years, (in 1778,) he was dangerously sick and given over by
physicians. A brother and sister died of the same fever, in one week, and
his father at the burial of the latter, looked out a place for another grave,
•which he supposed would soon be needed for this son. By the blessing of
God on the care and simple means used by a pious mother, he was, after many
weeks restored to health. This incident gave a shape to his whole future
course of life. Being left in frail health, for some years, he was led to form
habits of great simplicity in diet, and instead of meats and condiments a simple
bowl of milk, with fruit and bread, has through life, formed the principal
meal, and he was never confined to his room hy sickness, one day, till he had
passed the age of fourscore years.
" At the age of twelve, being intensely anxious for an education, he pro-
cured a grammar and commenced the study of the Latin language without
a teacher. His father despairing of seeing him a robust farmer, as he in-
tended, committed him to a private teacher; and, in 1788, he entered Yale
College and was graduated with honors in 1792. After graduation he taught
a Select School one year, in New Haven, and one in Litchfield. He studied
Theology Avith Kev. Charles Backus, D. D., of Somers, and was licensed in
May, 1795, by the Association of New Haven County, and preached the
first Sabbath thereafter in his native place of Granville, and then, by
previous arrangement, the ensuing summer, in Salisbury, Conn. Receiving
a call from both churches, that from Granville was accepted, and he was or-
dained Feb. 3d, 1796, in a place which had been, for twenty years a moral
364
APPENDIX.
waste. On May 6, 1796, he was connected in marriage with Content Chap-
man, only child of Isaac Chapman, who fell in the War of the Revolution,
when this daughter was only six months old.
*' East Granville, though a barren waste for years, by the blessing of God
on his own institutions, became a faithful field. During the fifty-eight years
which have intervened since the settlement of Dr. Cooley, the church has been
blessed with ten precious Revivals of Religion. In 1 798, there were seventy
hopeful conversions and the Church was doubled. In 1816, especially, in
the Bible Class, when there were eighty hopeful conversions. In 1823, was a
revival which commenced on New Year's eve, in connexion with a Literary
exercise in the School, which resulted in twenty-three hopeful conversions.
" Other harvest seasons have been granted, of greater or more hmited ex-
tent. Besides the supervision of common schools as town committee for
forty-eight years and of Higher Institutions, the greater part of the time, as
many as eight hundred pupils received instruction from his lips, of whom
more than sixty became ministers of the gospel, against none of whom has
there been a report of heresy or immorality. Not a few of his pupils have
been members of Congress, Judges, Officers in Colleges and other high
places of usefulness. The number of sermons preached by him are about
8,000, having attended about 1,500 Bible Class Lessons."
Dr. Cooley has been somewhat distinguished as an author. Publications
of liis, more than sixty in number, though mostly brief, have come from the
press. Among which are the following.
In 1794. " Stanzas on the Death of the Printer's Lovely Child." Poem,
" The African Slave." " Plea for the Bible," published in Buell & Collins'
Paper, at Litchfield.
In 1800, "An Historical Sermon."

among whom he has ministered about fifty-nine years. A rare example, re-

The Life of Rev. Robert PI. Chapman, D. D., (see No. 823,) fur-
nished BY HIS Son, Rev. Robert H. Chapman, of Taladega, Ala-
bama.*
The subject of this article was the second son of the Rev. Jedediah Chap-
man, a distinguished minister of the Presbyterian Church, and one of its
Fathers in this country. His instrumentality in extending its stretch and
iniiuence, was marked and deep. His impress, especially in its missionary
features, has been more abiding than that of most of his cotemporaries. He
led the van as regards this noble enterprise, in the North-West ; the Great
Head of the Church blessed his efforts in a signal manner ; for he lived to
see whole Synods and nameless Presbyteries, serving God and liis Church,
where he had stood, the solitary pioneer of the General Assembly, The
Rev. Jedediah Chapman was a native of East Haddam, Conn., and a grad-
uate of Yale College in the class of 1762. He became a member of the
Presbytery of New York, early in his ministry ; soon the Pastor of the church
of Orangedale, New Jersey. He continued there more than thirty years ;
after which he removed to Western New York, where he labored for thir-
teen years. He was the first Pastor of the church of Geneva, and the senior
Pastor thereof, at the time of his death in 1814. His sefond son, the subject
of this article, was born at Orangedale, N. J., March 2, 1771. His youth
was passed amid the scenes of the Revolution, and almost upon its battle
ground ; for, as all persons familiar with Revolutionary history know, that
portion of the state of New Jersey was strenuously contended for by the

conflicting parties, and was sometimes within the lines of the one force and
then of the other. Its proximity to New York, then in possession of the
enemy, made it a point of warfare and of danger. The father of Dr. Chap-
man was devoted in his attachment to the interests of liis country; was con-
stant and unremitting in his efiTorts witli his flock ; and, doubtless, it was much
owing to his personal and ministerial influence that, almost to a man, tlic
congregation and church to which he ministered were decidedly whig, through
the War of the Revolution. His father's family and their interest, were
oftentimes in eminent peril, and the father himself was not unfrequently,
compelled to retire from his family and flock, as, to the loyalists, he was pe-
culiarly offensive, from the decision of his course and its influence upon those
under his ministrations ; — but these intervals were spent in strewing broad-
cast upon the human mind, the seeds of religious truth. Sometimes he was
with the American army, as temporary chaplain, urging the citizen-soldier
to be faithful to himself and true to his God and country ; at other times, urg-
ing the same views in the farm-house, and amid the hills and valleys of that
beautiful land. For this ofiice and duty he was peculiarly fitted ; these prin-
ciples grew with his growth , himself the descendant of the Puritan, the blood
of the Huguenot mingled in his veins ; and long years, and for generation
after generation, these principles had been fostered and encouraged, by deeds
of daring and self-sacrifice, out of regard to principle and love for God's
truth, which long marked his pious ancestry. Such a one it is difficult to
enslave ; with such a one, the rights of conscience are always sacred and
dear. There are numerous family legends of his personal trials, high moral
daring and narrow escapes from imminent danger, all of which evince his un-
swerving piety and deep devotedness to God and his church. They exhibit,
too, his love to the race of man, and his deep devotion to his country's interests,
advancement and honor. Blessed with such a parent and trained in such a
school, the subject of this article grew up deeply imbued with these principles
of benevolence, patriotism and piety. He was carefully educated, and at an
early age, became the pupil of that devoted patriot and man of God, the
learned Dr. John Witherspoon. He passed through bis college course at
Nassau Hall, with great credit, and was admitted to the degree of Bachelor
of Arts, at the early age of eighteen years. He graduated In 1 789, and was
the classmate of Drs. Hosack, DIckerson, and the Hon. Silas Wood, with
■whom he enjoyed an uninterrupted friendship during their long and brilliant
career. It was a class, few in numbers, but possessed of fine powers and
rich attainments, destined to exert a wide-spread Influence In the respective
spheres on which they entered and became engaged. From a youth, and
during his college course, the subject of this article was remarked for his
deep reverence for divine things, his high-toned morality, his purity and love
of truth. After graduation, he returned to the home of his father, where he
spent a year In judicious reading. His pathway of life was all unmarked,
but he felt that he could not err, in storing his mind and disciplining his fac-
ulties ; that he would thereby be the better prepared for the battle of life,
APPENDIX. 367
whatever might be its sphere. During this year of quiet, unostentatious pur-
suit, his mind became deeply impressed with the subject of religion ; the
worth of the soul ; its need of a Saviour, and the infinite righteousness which
He alone can bestow. Such had been the purity of his life, such his pres-
ervation from outward sins, that partial friends deemed him one renewed in
early childhood. His own mind was inclined to the same opinion, and to a
resting on a conscience void of offense, and a life, to human view, at least,
wholly blameless. This snare of the adversary (for in his case it was a
snare) was torn asunder by the Spirit of God. His deep sleep was broken,
and under the Spirit's teaching he beheld himself a lost and guilty sinner,
ready to perish. His convictions of sin were deep and pungent ; his sense of
hardness of heart and deep defilement, acute ; there was an abiding sense of
the deep need of a better righteousness than his own ; an appreciation of the
Saviour's freeness and fullness, and an appreciation of Christ ; a heart-felt
reception of him in all his offices, and a yielding of the whole heart's trust,
which betokened the setting of the Almighty's seal and the renewing of the
Holy Ghost. From that hour there was with him no hesitation as to the path
of duty — the avocation of his future life. He gave himself to the minis-
try of reconciliation, and when his good old father, willing to try his devoted-
ness, or, it may be, swerved for the moment, from what was before his be-
loved son, spoke of the deep trials, abasement and sacrifice that then awaited
the minister of Christ, the son replied in the language of the apostle, " Woe is
me if I preach not the gospel." That father and son have long been before
the throne, and by eternity's clear light, have contrasted the sufferings,
which were but for a moment, with the exceeding great reward which has, of
grace, followed, and as they have drank of the Saviour's smile and feasted
in the bliss that attends his presence, have, doubtless, praised the grace by
which they were sweetly drawn to devote the energies of their early life to
the ministry of reconciliation. The younger Chapman at once entered on
his theological course, which was thorough and ample. After spending three
years therein, he became connected with the College of New Brunswick, as
an instructor, with a view, mainly, to the advantages of its extended library,
in pursuing his theological studies. In 1793, he was licensed to preach the
everlasting gospel, and embarked all his living energies in that soul-elevating
and heart-consoling occupation, and for forty years he served the God of his
fathers and of the church which he hath redeemed, in that high vocation.
The seeds of truth, through his instrumentality, have been scattered far and
wide. The cold north and the sunny south, have alike witnessed his labors
of love, his deep devotedness, the fervency of his prayers, and the stren-
uousness of his efforts in winning souls back to hohness and God. Many,
through his instrumentality, have been rescued from the thraldom of Satan.
He has many spiritual sons who, as living ministers, are now throughout the
length and breadth of this wide land, proclaiming from many a sanctuary, the
unsearchable riches of Christ and his grace. The first pastoral charge of Dr.
Chapman was taken at Rahway, N. J., where he labored profitably and assid-
368 APPENDIX.
uously. He became its pastoi- in 1796. The 14th of February, 17f)(;, he
married Miss Hannah Arnette, of Elizabethtown, N. J., with whom iic lived
in wedlock thirty-seven years. She was, em[)hatically, a pastor's wife, and
greatly aided him in his labors of love and of Christian usefulness. For
many years, Dr. Chapman was settled in the north, and was the Pastor of
the First Presbyterian Church of Cambridge, N. Y., where several of his
children were born, and where his ministry was greatly blessed. The growth
of the church, under his ministrations, was gradual yet constant. The writer
has often heard him speak of the fact that God, in his goodness and grace,
had so ordered it, that but one or two instances of sacramental service and
of connecting with the church were, under his ministry, unimproved. More
or less with every such opportunity, enrolled themselves .soldiers of the cross-
God did not leave himself without a witness of the power of his truth, and of
the faithfulness of his servant. This, in a ministry of forty years, diligently
and constantly pursued, is a most interesting fact, and one full of power and
fraught with momentous results. The larger part of Dr. Chapman's labors
in the north, were with the people of Cambridge ; here was his most extended
pastorate, and doubtless here was the most extended harvest of souls, under
his instrumentality, in the north. Many a jewel was here gathered unto his
Master's crown. For long periods of time the church was in a revival state.
The largest number gathered into the church at any one time, was sixty-
one. The seed was sown in tears and with fervent prayers ; the gathering
of the sheaves was with joy and rejoicing. But the Head of the Church had
other purposes of love and grace, and profitable as was this connection to
souls ; pleasant and dear as were these spiritual ties, they were soon to be
broken. In the year 1811, unsolicited on his part, and in fact, much to his
surprise, he was unanimously elected President of the University of North
Carolina, and warmly and earnestly solicited to take the cliarge thereof.
This post of distinction and usefulness, was tendered him freely and without
the agency of friends, and was accompanied with proofs of confidence, affec-
tion and high appreciation. The Legislature of tlit State elected him a mem-
ber of its Board, and the " Senatus Academicus" of the University tendered
him its honorary distinction of Doctor of Divinity, a title and distinction then
but rarely bestowed, and betokening in its bestowal, much more than has
been connected with it of late years. This distinction he from motives of
delicacy declined and waived; but the post of duty and labor, after great and
sore trial in separating himself from the beloved people of his charge, he felt
constrained to accept. The people of Cambridge were devotedly attached to
their pastor. To many of them he was a spiritual father, to all of them the
loved man of God, their spiritual counselor and guide. For ten years he
had been with them laboring for their souls' benefit and salvation. His own
ardent affections had been thrown all around them ; to them it was a hard
trial to give up one thus endeared, and his heart, in separating from them,
was torn with grief and sadness ; but the duty was most clear, and the call to
APPENDIX.
369
its discharge loud and imperative. He yielded, though in grief and sadness,
telling them he must leave them, and asking them to unite in an application for
the dissolution of the pastoral relation. They felt that he was right, that the
call of duty was from God, and they must yield to its power. Their feelings,
like his, were all adverse to the separation ; but, constrained by duty, they, in
the exercise of the same self-denial with which he asked, consented to the sep-
aration. A more affectionate, attached pastor, and a more attached, devoted
people, were never separated, in the Providence of God. They parted in
tears and with aching hearts, and for long years, the separation was keenly,
painfully, felt and borne. Dr. Chapman removed to the Carolinas in 1812,
and entered upon his duties as President of the University of the State. He
found the state of literature low, and the pulse of piety lower still. In fact,
the seat of the university itself was a moral desolation. But, with an energy
for which he was remarkable, he entered upon his duties, and with the bless-
ing of God, was soon permitted to witness a most favorable change. The col-
lege was remodeled, the classes arranged, its course of study improved. It
was placed on the same basis with the most thorough institutions of learning.
Princeton was made its model, and from that period a brighter day dawned
upon its auspices, From that day to this, a continued prosperity has marked
this institution, and it yet, on the same basis upon which it was then placed,
hath performed its mission of love to that State and its adjoining borders.
There was no church then at its seat ; the tone of morals was low, and but
little of even the form of religion was seen In all that region. The pious
heart of him whose liistory we pen, was continually pained, but he sunk
not down in despondency, but awoke heart and every energy to action ;
a pure gospel was preached, and its claims and precious tendencies were pre-
sented and pressed, in all faithfulness and love. God owned his truth ; it
reached the hearts of one and another, until the materials of a church were
prepared, gathered and united, through the instrumentality of which, many
sons and daughters have been gathered unto the Shepherd and Bishop of
souls. The Sabbath became to the university and village, a hallowed rest.
The Bible, before strangely overlooked, was made a text-book in the univer-
sity ; and a recitation on some portion of it every Sabbath, was made a stand-
ing rule and exercise of the institution. A number of the young men were
brought under a deep and pervasive religious influence. Some of them
entered the ministry and are now watchmen on the walls of Zion. Others,
in different avocations and pursuits, carried into them the seeds of truth
sown in prayer and with tears. In several of the States, it has been the
privilege of the writer of tliis article to meet with those who have told him
that they were indebted to the seeds of truth, then sown, for the change of

these cases have occurred since the death of him whose memorj' this article
commemorates. Doubtless, such cases occiir with every faithful Christian

plishcd, and his pilgrimage past ; tliey meet him in heaven and before their
Father's throne, and there he learns, for tlie first time, that, under God, he
was the instrument of their salvation.
It was in a moral and religious aspect, eepcciuUy, that Dr. Chapman was
made a blessing to the University. It is now in lay hands, presided over
by the Hon. David L. Swan, LL. D. ; but the impress given to it by Dr.
Chapman yet abides ; the incense of his hallowed influence remaineth to this
day. " Esto perpetua," may it long abide, blessing the youth, Avho there
congregate, and the State under whose fostering hand it is sustained. What
Dr. Chapman was to the University, he was also to the Ecclesiastical Courts.
His influence therein was truly benign, deep, pervasive. ]lb was always
there with his kind heart, his watchful eye, his far-reaching vision ; there
with his well-stored mind, his theological astuteness, his praying heart.
Beloved of his brethren, his. voice was always heeded, and his counsels
always appreciated and followed. Not less was he a blessing to the State.
Throughout its breadth he was known. Almost eveiy sanctuary enjoyed
more or less of his labors, and the perfume of his memory yet abideth in
all the land. Fifteen years after he was entombed, a distinguished jurist of
the State remarked to the writer of this article, that his memory was cher-
ished with deep fondness, and that the seeds he had scattered were yet spring-
ing up and bearing fruit, to the praise of Divine Grace.
In the year 181.5, he received the Doctorate from the time-honored Insti-
tution of WilUams College, Mass. Dr. Chapman never forgot that he was a
Christian minister and that his main vocation was to preach the Gospel.
Though honored and useful in his position, as President of the University,
his heart panted after the Church, the Society and the Pastoral relation. He
longed to be wholly and exclusively employed in the great work of enlight-
ening and saving souls ?
The University had gi-eatly prospered under his administration ; the num-
ber of its pupils had more than doubled. The Board of Trustees had ad-
vanced his salary a third on the sum stipulated when he accepted of the
Presidency. He had succeeded in throwing around the Institution a fine
moral and religious influence, in making its discipline, parental and prevent-
ive, rather than retaliatory and vindictive, and now he felt that his work
there was accomplished, and that it was his privilege to retire from its man-
agement and devote himself, exclusively, to the duties and work of the
minister of Christ I The propriety of this step was duly weighed and long
and prayerfully considered. At length, in the year 1817, he tendered to the
Boai'd of Trustees, his resignation, which was, at length, accepted, though on
the part of many Avith great reluctance, and his connection with the Institution
was severed. In the summer of 181 7, he was called to several points of
gi-eat promise holding out fine prospects for ministerial usefulness. He, at
length, decided for the Valley of Virginia and became the Pastor of Bethel
Church, at that time, If the writer recollects aright, the largest Church in
the Synod of Virginia. Here Dr. Chapman labored four or five years with
continual manifestations of the Divine presence and with the witness of the
APPENDIX. 371
Holy Spirit on the fruitfulness of his ministrations. He then removed to
the West end of the Valley, the neighborhood of Winchester, where he
labored, and, in addition to his own Pastoral labors, supplied, for a time, at
least, the pulpit of the Eev. Dr. Hill, then absent from Winchester, in search
of health. Dr. Chapman was connected with the Synod of Virginia for
some twelve years : after which he resolved on emigrating to the West. A
year or two devoted to preparation was spent in the hill country of North
Carolina, during which he labored, ministerially, with untiring energy. In
1829, he removed to the Mississippi Valley, settling at Covington, Tenn.,
some twelve miles from its banks, within the bounds of a Frontier Presbytery,
where his spirit, love of order, and theological attainments, were greatly
prized and made, under God, an eminent blessing to the Church of Christ,
in that region. Things were greatly in thoir forming state and Dr. Chap-
man's influence was most benignant and happy. Here he labored and here
he ripened for Heaven. In the Spring of 1^3;^, he was strongly urged, by
his Presbvtery, to represent them in the General Assembly, at a time when
dissension and sorroAv were darkening the horizon of the Presbyterian
Church, portending the approaching storm. His Presbytery thought, in
their appreciation of Dr. Chapman's spirit, firmness and intelligence, that he
was the man to represent them and urged this duty upon him. He consent-
ed, at length, little tliinking, that he w^ould no more mingle in their councils.
He parted from his family and flock in the wilderness, expecting soon to
return, but God had determined that they should see his face no more. Their
next meetin<T, though they knew it not, was to be at the judgment seat of
Christ. Though his step was shortening and the evidences of age thicken-
in<T upon him, yet such was his uninterrupted health for twenty years or
more that he had not known a sick hour. Such his buoyancy of spirit and
such the energy that marked him, that none supposed it was other than a
brief separation which should make his return gladsome and enhance the
value of his ministrations and presence. Xo gray hairs mingled in his locks ;
bis eyes were also undimmed, nor was his natural strength, vivacity or intel-
ligence at all abated. They parted in silence and with tears, though sus-
tained by hope and confident expectation ; those hopes were all to be dashed
in death ; those expectations were never to be realized. Dr. Chapman in
fine health accomplished the joui-ney, performing the most of it on horse-
back ; making it, in fact, a preaching missionary tour. He met the Assem-
bly of the church of his Fathers, engaged in its deliberations and councils,
with his usual ability and industry, and, after its adjournment, made a
hasty visit to his older brother, then in the city of New York. He started
for his home in the West, anticipating a blissful reunion with his aflectionate
family and beloved flock. At Winchester, Virginia, he was arrested by dis-
ease, and though ministered unto, assiduously, by the friends of other years,
though unremittingly attended to by able and skillful physicians, it was all
unavailing. Full of years and usefulness, rich in grace and good works, and
ripened by their exercise and influence, he sunk in the arms of death, the
18th of June, 1833, in the sixty-third year of his age, and of his ministry,
372
APPENDIX.
the forty-first. His end was blissful, caiin as a Hununer's sleep and full of
trust and peace. His disease was constipation of the bowels, and mortifica-
tion ensued tlie fourth day of the attack. The cessation of pain deceived
him and he thought himself relieved. He had arisen as was his wont the
morning tliat he died, unassisted had dressed himself, and standing by an
open window which his own hand had lifted ; such was his strength even
to the last. The sun was rising and he stood contemplating the scene, as his
physician entered, and inquired as to his state. He replied that he was bet-
ter and tliat nature and the rcinedies had triumphed. The doctor felt his pulse,
shook his head, and replied, " J)r. Chapman, I must be candid with you ; mor-
tification has commenced and you are dying !" " Oh !" said he, " is it so ?" Not a
muscle moved ; no trepidation followed, for in calmness he remarked to the
physician, " I am ready to depart and give up ray account. My trust is in the
Holy and sinless, the Saviour Christ." " I should have loved," continued he,
" once more to have met with the wife of my youth and to have prayed with
the children whom God has given us, but if he has ordered otherwise I am
content and ready to depart." He thanked the physician for his attention
and solicitude, and retjuested the presence of Rev. Dr. Hill and Thomas Allen
Tidball, Esq., his son-in-law, in whose house he was. Through the assist-
ance of the last named gentleman he added a codicil to his will, making his
wife his almoner for religious and charitable objects and committing to her
trust, for this purpose, and for her personal comfort, an income of some eight-
een hundred dollars during her life. He then, turning to his ministerial
brother, said, " I am about to enter the eternal world, and to appear before
God. We have often prayed together and labored, but my work is done.
Read to me once more from the Word of God and let us once more bow be-
fore him in prayer." He was asked what portion should be read. Said he,
" It is all good, but you may read the 97th Psalm." " It begins," said he, " with
the words, The Lord reigneth, let the earth rejoice ;" after which Dr. Hill led
the devotions of that chamber of death, if death it could be called. He
then requested Dr. Hill to preside at his interment and to have it attended with
appropriate religious services. Said he, " Preach a plain gospel sermon on
the great doctrine of Justification by Faith, and the peace which it imparts;"
and added, " Romans v. 1st, is an appropriate text." " And now," said he,
" my friends, leave me to commune with my God and die." They waited
around and at 9 o'clock A. M., he breathed his last. Not a doubt disturbed
his mind, not a cloud intercepted the beamings of the Sun of Righteousness.
Calm, resigned and peaceful his spirit departed and entered on its last
reward. They who were present described that death chamber as the vesti-
bule of Heaven. Thus ended the mortal life of the Rev. Robert H. Chap-
man. Far from home, and family, and kindred, he was called on, by the
Great Master, to lay down his implements of toil and to put his armor off.
For a moment nature struggled as he thought of the wife of his youth and
the children whom God had given him ; it was his only earthly tie. He felt
solemn and serious, as one should feel who was about to stand in the presence
of the King of Kings : the veils of time were parting before him; the gales
APPENDIX. 373
of the eternal world were freshening on his sj)irit ; and yet his mind was full
of confidence, and filled with perfect peace. With his whole soul, he was
trusting in Christ. Faithfully had he served God and his church in his gen-
eration, and now his warfare accomplished and his work done, what was left,
but for him to hear his Saviour's voice and to hasten to his rest ! Amid the
friends of other da}s and with every want ministered unto which Christian
sympathy could supply, he breathed his last, June 18, 1833. His mortal re-
mains rest in the grave-'vard of Winchester, Ya. Neither wife nor children
rest with them, but the noble dead are there. The dust of the Redeemed of
the Lord is all around him. Le Grande resteth by his side and others.
Their dust sleepeth side by side, but their spirits are before the throne. Dr.
Chapman left a wife and seven children. Five others had preceded him to
the spirit land. His wife survived him twelve years, exemplifyiag his labors
of love, his pious counsels, and, at length, full of years and like a shock of
corn fully ripe, she deceased at St. Louis, July 5, 1845.

A Letter from Miss Caroline V. Reynolds ok Quincy, III.,
A Grand-daughter of Rev. Jedediah Chapman.
" Rev. F. W. Chapman :
" Dear Sir : — If the following anecdotes of my grandfather will add
anything to the interest of your forthcoming volmne, they are at your dis-
posal. I have frequently heard my mother repeat them, as she received
them from the lips of her parents. Their descendants will value them, if the
other branches of the family do not. My grandfather seldom spoke of his
family, consequently we have no idea who our connexions are, on his side of
the house, and we look with some interest for your publication. I presume
you have obtained from Rev. Mr. Murray an account of his ministerial life,
but, if you should want any information that I can give, I will do so with
pleasure.
"He was a popular man and much beloved by aU denominations. He was
seized with his last illness, while in the pulpit. His last text was from 2d
Tim. 4 : 7 : ' I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have
kept the faith,' &c. He took a very active part in the Revolutionary War.
He was a firm and staunch patriot and warmly espoused the cause of his coun-
try, using all his enei'gies in arousing his countrymen to resist and throw off
the British yoke. He employed his time, somewhat, in preaching on the sub-
ject and became so obnoxious to the Royalists on account of his patriotism,
that several rewards were offered for his head. A club of about forty took
an oath, that they would neither eat nor sleep until he was in their power.
Knowing that he was to preach in a certain place, on a specified evening,
thev repaired to the spot and placed themselves each side of the door for the

purpose of seizing him when ho came out. He knew their desijj;n, hut iiis
knowledge of it did not prevent his fnlfilhng his engagement. lie preaclied
one of his most thrilling and patlu'tic sermons. After jiroiionnciiig the bene-
diction, he came down from the pulpit, and walked boldly through their ranks,
bowing and sjjeaking to them as he passed out. They did not make the
least movement to detain him ; the dignity of courage, or rather the powei'
of the God of Freedom, restraining their angry passions.
" At another time, he was hotly pursued, by a party of British soldiers,
and was almost within their grasp. At this moment, he reached the summit
of a hill, when he wheeled his horse around, took off' his hat, waved it in the
air and gave three cheers. From this bold maneuver the soldiers supposed
the American army was in sight of him and hid from their view by the hill,
and acting on this supposition, turned their horses and galloped away, at full
speed, leaving my grandfather to pursue his way in peace and the Ameri-
can army many miles in an opposite direction.
" At another time the British had their quarters in his house at Orange-
dale. At night they had a supper, and after becoming merry with their
wine, procured an old game-cock ; setting him upon the table, they called him
' The Rebel Preacher,' and held a court-martial over him. After going
through with the ceremonies of a trial, the sentence of deca^iltation was
passed on him. As soon as it was pronounced, old Chanticleer clapped his
wings and gave a loud crow, when an ofhcer jumped up and with his sword
cut off his head.
" My grandfather served one year as Chaplain in Washington's army, but
the date I do not know. La Fayette was a frequent visitor at his house, and
when he made his last visit to this country, made many inquiries about his
old friend. Respectfully yours,
C. Y. REYNOLDS."

A Brief Sketch of the Life of Capt. Elisha Chapman, Grand-
son OF Robert the Settler.*
" Capt. Elisha Chapman was born in the building now standing on the
old paternal homestead, a few days after it was first occupied by his father,
in the year 1 740, and died in the same building aged nearly eighty-five years,
never knowing any other home.
* The above sketcli was furnished too late for insertion in the body of the
work. It should have been included vmder the head of No. 2564. The title of
Captain should have been there prefixed to his name, and the number of his
children was twelve and not thirteen, as there stated. This error escaped the
APPENDIX. 375
"The materials of which the old mansion is composed as it now stands,
were taken, In part, from the first honse of Robert the settler, built by him
In 1G46. Part of the roof boards are now covered with white wash, proba-
bly put on by Robert himself or his order, and are in full view, visited yearly
by many of the descendants, with increasing interest. It Is used as an ap-
pendage of the farm, and sheltering most of the time, two or three families of
workmen comfortably. Capt. Chapman enlisted in the old French War, as
a soldier, at the age of sixteen, and served four campaigns ; the second and
third years as a non-commissioned officer ; the fourth year as ensign ; was
in the colonial line of troops at the surrender and occupancy of Montreal.
On the breaking out of the War of the Revolution, he visited Gen. \Vash-
ington's camp near Boston, and was recommended to Governor Trumbull, for
a captain's commission, which he obtained on his vray home, and Immediately
raised a full company and joined Washington's army in Xew York ; was
with his companj' in the battle of Long Island, and composed part of the
army which was so skillfully withdrawn from the Island, and was afterward
stationed In a redoubt at the extreme south end of the city, probably near
where Castle Garden now stands, and was in that j^osltlon when the city was
assaulted by the British army. Finding his company almost or quite deserted
by the main army, which was evidently fleeing the city, and the enemy as evi-
dently landing far up on the East River side, he, to save his company from
capture, strapped his own knapsack on to one of his soldiers by the name of
Ebenezer Ingham, a man of a religious turn of mind and of Herculean
strength, and who volunteered to carry the pack of his captain in addition to
his own, that his commander might be more at liberty to enforce discipline in
the hasty retreat, which was effected in Indian file under cover of the North
River shore, a broken ground until reaching the woods in the rear of the city,
just in time to cover themselves from the advance of the British forces, al-
though fired upon without harm, except the soldier carrying the packs, who
was struck b}- a musket shot which perforated one pack and lodged In his
Bible within the other. Probably this might be the last man leaving the city
in that memorable retreat, who was not captured by the enemy.* They soon
overtook the rear of the American army, and organizing a rear guard, which
continued the retreat to HarLem, and next day to White Plains, made a suc-
cessful stand, where was fought the battle known as ' the Battle of White
Plains.'
" Serving out that campaign and term of enlistment, he received a second
notice of the author in reading the proof, and therefore the correction is entered
^ here. It is also proper to state that in giving the outline sketch of his son
George H. Chapman, Esq., who occupies the old homestead, it would have
been more correct to have given his occupation, while in the city of Boston, as
that of a wholesale dealer and Importer.
* This account of the musket ball lodged in the Bible, is according to a
legend preserved by the descendants of the man who curried the double pack.

four times as connnandor of detachments^of Miiuite Men and of Militia; once
at the taking of Burgoyne; once to garrison the forts, temporarily, at New
London ; once at New Haven, and once to resist a detachment of the enemy
threatening to land at Say-Brook. After the war he became very much of
a domestic man, rearing a large family, and filling for many years, offices of
trust in the town, and was a member of the legislature. He was a brave
soldier, an honest man, and more than all, a consistent Christian. lie died

NOTE J.
Obituary of Mrs. Emily Chapman.
As the last sheets of this work were going to the press, the author expe-
rienced a sudden and severe bereavement in the loss of an affectionate and
beloved wife.
The following brief sketch of her life may not be unacceptable to those
who had no personal acquaintance with her, while it will gratify a large cir-
cle of intimate friends.
Mrs. Emily Chapman, the subject of this sketch, was the eldest child of the
382 APPENDIX.
late Mr. Ilonry and Mrs. Emily Hill, born at West-Brook, Conn., Dec. 31,
1809. Her mother was the youngest daughter of Lieut. Lebbeus Chapman,
by his first marriage, and of the sixth generation, in the direct line, from
Capt. Robert Chapman the First Settle)-. (See No. 2702.)
She was hopefully converted, under the ministry of the Rev. Sylvester
Selden, when seventeen years of age, and united with the Congregational
church, at Westbrook, on the first Sabbath in May. 1827.
She was married to the Rev. F. W. Chapman on the Gth of May, 1833,,
in the city of Kcw York ; Mr. Chapman being at that time Pastor of the
Congregational church at Stratford. She died at South Glastenbury, of
Apoplexy on the 30th of March, 1854, a little short of twenty-one years
from the date of her marriage, beloved and lamented by a large circle of
relatives, leaving behind her, her afflicted partner and three children, two
sons and one daughter, to mourn over their irreparable loss.
She was a faithful, confiding and affectionate wife, an helpmeet indeed,
sharing in all the labors and trials incident to her husband's calling, lightening
his burdens, cheering a naturally desponding spirit, animating and exciting
him to unwearied labors in the great work of the ministr\-. She was a wise
and judicious counselor to her partner in scenes of perplexity, and contrib-
uted largely, to his usefulness as a minister of Christ. The stroke inflicted,
by her sudden removal, would be more than he could endure but for the sus-
taining grace of God, and the confident belief that his loss, is her everlast-
ing gain.
From their birth, she dedicated her children to God, watched over their
spiritual interests, with sleepless vigilance, and did whatever could be accom-
plished, by fervent prayer, faithful instruction and a consistent Christian ex-
ample, to train them for usefulness here and for blessedness hereafter. By
her kind disposition and winning manners she endeared herself to all who
cultivated her acquaintance. She was a Avelcome visitant in the sick room,
and the house of mourning, as multitudes avUI testify, in the difierent com-
munities where her husband was called to labor. She was an active and
constant supporter of the female prayer-meeting, where she will be missed
by the faithful few who, weekly, meet to implore the blessing of God upon
the preaching of the Word, in the building up of the Church and the con-
version of sinners.
Few, in a noiseless and unobtrusive manner, have accomplished more than
she, in such a station, for the good of their own families and the church of
God. Her record is on high. " Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord ;
Yea saiththe Spirit, for they rest from their labors and tlielr works do follow
them."
Her remains were taken to West-Brook for interment. An impressive dis-
course was delivered on Sabbath the 2d of April, the day after her burial, by
the Rev. William A. Hyde, pastor of the church in W^est-Brook, fi-om Gen.
42, last clause of the 36th verse. " All these things are against me."
A Funeral Discourse was also delivered at South Glastenburv, on the
APPENDIX.
38
second Sabbath of April, by Rev. James A. Smitli, pastor of the church in
North Glastenbury, from 1st John 3d, 2d.
" And it doth not yet appear what we shall be ; but we know that when
he shall appear we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is."
*" Asleep in Jesus ! blessed sleep !
From which none ever wake to weep ;
A calm and undistm-bed repose,
Unbroken by the last of foes.
Asleep in Jesus ! Oh, how sM-ect,
To be for such a sUunlier meet,
With holy confidence to sing
That death has lost its vcnomcd sting.
Asleep in Je:us ! peaceful rest!
Whose waking is supremely blest.
No fcur, no woe shall dim that hour,
That manifests the Saviour's power.
Asleep in Jesus ! Oh for me,
May such a blissful refuge be ;
Securely shall my ashes lie.
And wait the summons from on liigh."
* As this was a favorite hymn with the deceased and ol'teu on her lips, it is
inserted here, as expressive of the sentiments of those who witnessed her
peaceful deatVi.
