PREFACE. 


The  following  brief  compilation  has  been  made  at  the  request  of 
some  of  the  descendants  of  Joseph  Dart  of  Stratford,  desiring  in 
convenient  form  such  particulars  as  might  readily  be  collected.  The 
name  seems  not  to  be  a  common  one  either  in  the  ^'old  country" 
or  in  the  United  States,  and  as  in  the  case  of  most  early  New 
England  families,  the  descendants  are  to  be  found  scattered  through 
many  of  the  states  and  territories  of  the  Union.  We  are  indebted 
to  M.  L.  Roberts  of  New  Haven,  Conn.,  and  Mrs.  M.  M.  Judd  of 
Kanab,  Kansas,  for  assistance  in  collecting  material  for  the  following 
pages.  W.  C.  SHARPE.

DART  aENEALOGY. 


DART. 

The  name  is  variously  spelled  Dart,  Darte  and  Dort,  but  the  first  is 
the  generally  accepted  form,  the  second  appearing  only  in  old  English 
records  and  the  third  in  the  Dutch  or  German  form.  In  the  visitation 
of  the  County  of  Surrey,  England,  made  in  1620,  the  name  is  spelled 
Darte.  John  Wallis  aPs  Darte  of  Barstable  m.  Joane,  dau.  of  Eob. 
Courtney  of  Molland  in  Devon.  His  son,  Lewis  Wallis  aPs  Darte,  of 
Meve,  m.  Eliz.,  dau.  of  Thos.  Eoscarrock.     Children: 

John,  Charles,  Jane,  m.  John  Tremayne ;  Phillip,  of  Bohemia, 
had  three  sons ;  Lewis,  bap.  Dec,  1597. 
The  earliest  mention  we  find  in  New  England  records  is  at  New 
London.  From  there  members  of  the  family  seem  to  have  gone  to 
Bolton,  Middletown,  Chatham,  Hebron,  Windham  and  Stratford, 
Conn.,  and  to  Gilsum  and  Surry,  New  Hampshire.  At  the  latter  place 
there  were  several  families  who  held  prominent  positions  in  the  com- 
munity and  whose  name  is  commemorated  in  the  local  geographic  titles.
