CONTRIBUTIONS TO A TRUMBULL GENEALOGY.
Theke is probably no famfly among our early colonial and revo-
lutionary stock which has contributed so many distinguished men to
their country's service in so many widely varied walks of life as the
Trumbulls — ^preSminent among statesmen, warriors, divines, poets,
painters and historians, the fame of the family must still rest, as its
most enduring monument, on the patriot Governor of Connecticut
■whose nickname of "Brother Jonathan," affectionately given him
by Washington, will ever stand as the prototype of American man-
hood and patriotism.
That so little has ever been done to substantiate the ancestry of
so notable a family seems a grave omission on the part of our his-
torians, and I esteem it a privilege to be able to throw some light on
the obscurity which has thus far enveloped its origin.
As is weU known to all who have taken an interest in the sub-
ject, there were two John Trumbulls (or Trumble, as the name was
then generally written) in the Massachusetts Colony at an early day,
and there has been no little confusion regarding them among gene-
alogists. As a matter of fact, however, there was no connection
whatever between them, and nothing has ever been discovered that
would indicate that they were even known to one another. They
were:
I. — John Trnmble, Cooper, of Roxbury in 1639, and among the first mem-
bers of Mr. Eliot's Church there, and the following year (13
May 1640) made freeman of Rowley. He brought to ^his country
a wife JEUen and son John,*
11. — John Trumble, Mariner, of Cambridge in 1636, was also made a
freeman in 1640, and removed to Charlestown in 1655. He had
wife Elizabeth ; perhaps married here.t
There has always been a family tradition attributing the origin of
one or both of them to Newcastle on Tyne in England, and this at
length found confirmation in a power of attorney of Susan Blackiston
of Newcastle on Tyne, widow, dated 27 August 1653, to Joanna SciU
of New England, to recover for her, inter alia^ a debt dating from
1637, of John Trumble, cooper, late of Newcastle on Tyne, and

now of New England.* This gave us the evidence that it was the
cooper and not the mariner who was from Newcastle, while the will
of William Kinge of Ipswich, Co. Suffolk, ship carpenter, f ^o which
Mr. H. F. Waters kindly called my attention, must beyond doubt
refer to the second John, the mariner, as we now know the wife of
the former to have been a Chandler.
It has been my great good fortune to locate one of these with
absolute certainty, and the other beyond a reasonable doubt, although
some further evidence is needed as to the last.
Being recently in the North of England I made a careful examina-
tion of the Consistory Court of Durham, the results of which are
printed herewith, but they are most disaf^intin^, as ike Trxxwi^oH.
wills were few and these few yielded but littfe information. TMs
task completed I had but one day to spare, having to keep an ^
pointment at the Probate Court at Lichfield, and I resolved to devote
it to a Parish Register isearch ctf Newcastle. This important aiid
populous city contains no leis© than four Parish Ohorches, and k was
manifestly impossible to see them all in a day. Beasofiing fi[*om
analogy that if our man was a cooper he would probably have re^
sided near the wharves and shipping, I selected the church neaSrest
the river (All Saints) to begin wiSi, and my delight may be im-
agined when I found, in rapid succession, the marriage of John
Trumble and Mlinor Chandler in 1635, the baptism of his daughter
Beriah in 1637, and his son John in 1639. The burial of Beriab,
four months after her baptism, leaving the ftrmily as we first find it
in America, makes the identificiation complete, and fixes the date ^f
the emigration within a few months.
The remainder of the day was spent in exhausting the RegisteE, as
far as time permitted, of all entries of the name, but in Spite of the
large number of these found, the result, as far as this partioulfitr
family is concerned, is somewhat meagre. The records only com-
mence in 1600, and the only baptism which could, chronologically,
have been that of our man, is John the son of James in 1612, and I
have serious doubts as to their identity for this reason — John Trum-
ble of Rowley was evidently a man of more than ordinary education
and intelligence, he wrote a clerkly haild (no common accomplish-
nient in those days), was Town Clerk of Rowley until his death in
li656, and taught the first school there ::{ biit James, the ftither of
the John baptized in 1612, is recorded as a "Kielman," that is, he
occupied the humble position of a labbrer on one of the keelboats ^r
lighters used in loading vessels or conveying freight about the
wharves, and it does not seem likely that a man in his position could
haVe given his son the education whi<3h we know the emigrant to
have possessed.

The other three sMicient papHbahea of Newcastle may, however, give
U8 the parentage of John Trmnble which All Saints denies us.
Thej are St, A^d^ew's (Jleg. 1597), St, John's (1587) and St.
Nicholas (1558), the Utt^if being the mother church. Gateaheiwi
in Durham, ou the opposite bank of the Tyne and integrally a part
of Newcastle, the JE^egi^t^i: of which dates from 1559, dfiould also be
examined. The parentage of EUinor Chandler, which was not foun^d
at All Saiat?, should ^Iso b^ sought in all of these.
It may be, however, that we must look fiurther afield and apross the
Scottish border. It hm always been believed that the TrumbuHs
of England were descended from the brokei;i remnants pf the once
powerfiil border claii^ of TurabuU, whose romantic o^in is so well
fcuown,* ^^id which, h^M^ied in turA by Scotch and I^glish forays,
was finally broken i^ip ancj scattered. I;i 1545 the EngUsh burned
no ieas than twelve castles and two towns of the cia,n in the Valley
of the Eule,f ^4 although the Barony of Mynto remained vested in a
^hief of the nam^ until the Dftiddle of the 17th century, J the poweir
qf the claii was b]foke;ij^ and it w^s thenceforward hut a shadow of
its former self,

The ^dventiire took place in the forest of Callender, near Stirling, and its da|;e is ap-
wnoximatelY fixed by a grant frpm King Robert Bruce in 13 Id of lands in Fulhophalch {i,e.
^hphaugh, a short diptanqe west of the Rule), to Willielmo dicta Tyamefmlli for "a redden^
of one broad arrow at the feast of Che Assummion of the Virgin Mary.** (Reg. Mag. Sig.,
B. 6). He w^ slam nit t^ battle of Hulidon Hill in 1333 in a single combat with Sir Robert
Benh^Ie, a l^orfolk knjght. (Putchinson's Northumb., ii., 70; Ridpath's Border Hi@t«>

Walter Tumbull, probably son of the above, was early in the possession of li^ynto, po
long held by the family, and which was confirmed to him, or a descendant of the same
name, by King David III. in 1370. (Robertson's Index, p. 33, No. 48). Before the middle
of the 15th century they had obtained the Barony of Bedrnle (Stoddard's Scottish Arms,
ii., 49), having by this time become a powerful border clan and rivalling the Mo^s Troopers
of Liddesdale in audacity and daring. In 1510 their excesses had become so great that the
King of Scotland marched with an army to the waters of Rule and executed summitry
jastice on the clan. (Jefferey's Hist. Roxborough, 330.) This blow and a deadly vendetta
with the Kers, aided the border warfare in weakening and finally breaking up the clan,
^he )ast wbo clamed ^e chieftainship, ^f);er the failure of the direct line of Mynto and Bed-
rftlp, w^ a ^ohn Tumbull of Know, about 1672-78. (Stoddard, ii., 60.)

The alien tax in the Lay Subsidies at the Public Record Office in
Fetter Lane, the results of a brief examination of which are printed
herewith, seems to clearly indicate the Scotch origin of the Trum-
buUs, and so to point out to the Clan Tumbull of Bedrule as the
progenitors of the race.
We will now turn to John Trumble the mariner. Being engaged
one day in a search of the Baptismal Registers of St. Dunstan'e,
Stepney, London, my attention was attracted by the occurrence of
a family of the name, and I believe that John the son of Robert
Trumble, mariner, of Wapping, who was baptized 25 Sept. 1608,
will prove to be the John Trumble of Charlestown, who in 1665
was 48* and in 1686 was 80,f according to his own depositions.
These last dates are utterly irreconcilable, and we can only conjec-
ture that the first of them should be 1655, or that his age should
have been 58 instead of 48, to make them harmonize with each other.
Admitting this error, they are, taken in connection with the mari-
time profession of the father, most suggestively near to the date of
baptism as given : while the statement of Savage, that he was in
his 80th year at his death in July 1687, exactly tallies with the
baptism. I
Robert, the father, unfortunately died intestate in 1614,§ but the
will of the mother, Judith, may yet be foimd, or some further and
more exact reference from some of the King, Hichman or Sandwell
families. || The wills at Bury St. Edmunds should also be seen in
this connction, while a further examination of the Stepney Regis-
ters for Marriages and Burials might, and most probably would,
demonstrate or disprove the theory I have promulgated.
There was a family of Trumbulls of London, fishmongers and
shipowners if not mariners, in the 16th century, whose wills in the
Pre. Court make a very good pedigree of four generations,** and
whom I have suspected to be the prepositors of Robert of Stepney,
but no confirmatory evidence has yet been found, and I believe that
their place of origin will be finally located in Suffolk or Essex, pro-
bably derived, like the Newcastle family, from the Clan TurnbuU.'
In the meanwhile I submit the results of my stray gleanings during
the last half dozen years in the English fields in the hope that other
than the two grains of wheat which I have pointed out may be
found among the chaff, and may prove of service to some co-worker
in the cause.

1604— .Trumbull contra Edmonds— B. & A. T. 8, 62.
Emm Trumbull of London wydowe of Emanuell Trumbull for her
selfe and on behalf of her daughter Mary Trumbull. John
Edmonds in his lief tyme in his fatherlie care towards yo' Oratrix
did bequeath to said Oit^ fifty pounds, said Edmond being her
late father, not to come into the hands of her husband but for tbe
• George Gfppes, I am informed by my friend Dr. J. J. Maskett, who is thorongtaly
conversaut with tlie families of Suflfoils, was a native of that county and had relations llviag
there.

vse of her selfe and children in case of necessitie — it being in
trustees hands and bringing four pounds interest yearly. He
made will 12 Jan^ 1598. He had messuages and tenements in
St Dunstan's in the East by lease of the fishmongers company.
Said Emanuell died last Michaelmas. Executors refuse to pay
the money. He had also, 14 June 42 Eliz"*, four tenements in
Little Holland, co. Essex, bringing twenty pounds g ann. He
borrowed mone of one George Turfelt and gave bonds. Said
Rich*^ Edmonds"*^ pursuaded him to convey messuages to him as he
could not pay, pleading affection of a brother (as he was to yo'
Oratrix). Oratrix offers to pay; he refuses to return the bonds.
Defendant's reply.— John Edmonds was of the Misterye of fish-
mongers of the Cittye of London. He demised said messuages
to one William Beale, and made Henry Edmonds and Richard
Edmonds, theis defendants, his Ex^". A mere legacy should be
sued for in the Ecclesiastical 1 Courts and not in this honorable
Courte. Compl' is in decayed estate and greatlye indebted : so
as if Defendts shoulde delyver vnto her said fifty pounds it should
be vtterly wasted. It was not for all her children: twenty
pounds were also bequeathed to Mary Trumbull her daughter.
They will willingly pay these sums to suche psons as this Courte
shall awarde. Trumbull was much indebted to this Def^ and
made default of payment. John Edmonds left the money to
Richard Edmonds and not at all to the said children.f
* Sic. — ^It is the first mention of bis name.
t These are the only instances of the name of Trumball in this coart daring the period
examined.
