A  QUARTERLY  MAGAZINE  OF  FAMILY  HISTORY. 
Issued  in  March,  June,  September  and  December.     Each  number  will  contain 
twenty-four   octavo    pages,  printed  on  excellent  paper. 
Price,  25   cents  a   number;  $1.00   a   year.        ' 

Ono  iiii  U)n<rer  apoloj,fizes  for  beinfj  interi-sted  in  genealo^jy,  <>n  the 
coiiliarv,  one  is  expected  to  excuse  any  lack  of  interest  in  his  ancestors. 
This  clian<;e  of  sentiment  in  America  durinjr  the  i)ast  half-century  is 
due  cliietly  to  two  causes.  One  of  these--tlie  orfjfauization  of  numerous 
patriotic-hereditary  societies — is  of  recent  occurrence,  and  has  exerted  a 
widespread  influence.  The  other  cause  has  been  the  continued  publi- 
cation, for  more  than  fifty  years,  of  that  valuable  and  interestinj^  i)eri- 
odical.  the  yeu'-Enr/lantl  Historifid  and  Genealoyical  Reijixter,  whose 
anoivjiate  \H)lumes  constitute  a  veritable  storehouse  of  New  England 
Family  History. 

To-day  there  are  thousands  of  i)ersons  seekinj?  information  about 
their  ancestry  where  there  were  hundreds  ten  years  ago.  The  increase 
of  genealogical  publications  has  not  kept  pace  with  this  increase  of  in- 
terest. The  greater  part  of  our  early  records  remain  unpublished,  and 
one  tindsthe  record  offices  besieged  l)y  genealogists,  the  town  clerks  and 
ihe  historical  societies  deluged  with  letters  of  inquiry,  and  the  sources  of 
original  information  in  danger  of  utter  destruction  by  the  careless  hand- 
ling of  an  army  of  ancestry  seekers. 

A  lack  of  financial  support  is  the  chief  reason  why  the  publication  of 
genealogical  books  has  not  been  in  ratio  with  the  increase  of  interest  in 
family  history.  It  is  undoubtedly  true  that  the  larger  i)art  of  genea- 
logical works  thus  far  .publisheil  have  been  a  source  of  loss  to  their 
l>ublishers.  This  ought  not  and  need  not  be  so  if  the  great  multitude 
of  investigators,  who  use  the  genealogical  departments  of  our  large 
jiublic  libraries,  only  realized  that  the  library  demand  alone  is  iusuthcient 
to  i)ay  the  cost  of  a  book,  and  th(tt  tliHr  personal  .support  is  needed  to 
f<i(ch  >rorks  as  contain  their  a)icestri/. 

The  Genealogical  Advertiser  is  issued  with  the  ho])e  that  a  cordial 
and  hearty  siii)i>ort  may  be  accorded  it  from  American  ancestry  seekers  — 
a  sui>])ort  that  will  not  only  secure  its  continuance,  but  will  also  enable 
I  lie    juiblisher  to  increase  the  number  of  pages  at  an  early  date. 

It  will  contain  hitherto  unpublished  genealogical  and  historical 
matter  from  original  sources,  such  as,  copies  of  State,  County,  Town  a)id 
<'hurch  Records  and  Cemetery  Inscriptions,  and  abstracts  from  Court 
Files,  Probate  Kecords  and  Deeds.  Genealogies,  Biographies,  Notes. 
•  Queries  and  Answers,  Notices  of  New  Genealogical  Books  and  other  data 
about  early  New  England  people  will  also  tiiul  place  in  its  pages. 

The  Genealogical  Advertiser  will  be  the  .first  niauazine  of  its  kind  to 
pail  for  its  iuterestinij  artirles.  Accurate  copies  of  early  unprinted  records 
and  documents,  esi)ecially  those  much  sought  for,  will  be  purchased  for 
lis  pages.  This  will  insure  a  better  selection  than  could  be  had  from 
voluntary  contributions. 

The  patronage  of  professional  genealogists  and  publishers  of  genea- 
logical books  is  resjiectfully  solicited.  The  advertising  pages  are  open 
to  such  at  reasonable  rates.

One  no  loii<it'r  apoloiiizes  iox  bcin<i:  iuteie.sted  in  <>enealo<iy,  On  tho 
rontrary,  one  is  expected  to  excuse  any  lack  of  interest  in  Uis  ancestors. 
This  chaufie  of  sentiment  in  'America  durinf;^  the  past  half-century  is 
due  chielly  to  two  causes.  One  of  these — the  oroanization  of  numerous 
patriotic-hereditary  societies — is  of  recent  occurrence,  and  has  exerted  a 
widespread  iniluence.  The  other  cause  has  been  the  continued  publi- 
cation, for  more  tlian  fifty  yearns,  of  that  valuable  and  interestiufi  i)eri- 
odical,  tho  Nrw-Enyland  Historit-al  ami  Genealogical  Beginter.  whose 
a<igretiate  volumes  constitute  a  veritable  storehouse  of  New  England 
Family  History. 

To-day  there  arc  thousands  of  \>ersons  seekinj;-  information  about 
their  ancestry  where  there  were  hundreds  ten  years  ayo.  The  increase 
of  jienealo$;ical  publications  has  not  kept  ])ace  with  this  increase  of  in- 
terest. The  fireater  i)art  of  our  early  records  remain  unjuiblished,  and 
one  lindsthe  record  oliices  liesie^ed  by  jienealogists,  the  town  clerks  and 
the  historical  societies  delujicd  with  letters  of  iiKpiiry,  and  thesources  of 
original  information  in  danger  of  utter  (lestruction  by  the  careless  hand- 
ling of  an  army  of  ancestry  seeker.s. 

A  lack  of  tinan('ial  sui)pt)rt  is  the  chief  reason  why  the  publication  of 
genealogical  books  has  not  l)een  in  ratio  with  the  increase  of  interest  in 
family  histo)-y.  It  is  undoubtedly  true  that  the  larger  part  of  genea- 
logii.'irl  works  thus  far  published  have  been  a  sotirce  of  loss  to  their 
)iublishers  This  ought  not  and  need  not  l)e  so  if  the  great  multitude 
of  investigators,  who  use  the  genealogical  departments  of  our  large 
public  libraries,  only  rea»lized  that  the  library  demand  alone  is  insullicicnt 
to  pay  the  cost  of  a  book,-  ami  that  tlifir  [wrxaual  support  is  needeil  t<' 
snr/i  irorks  as  rontaln  their  ancestr//.  * 

The  Qenealogical  Advertiser  is  issued  with  the  hojie  that  a  cordial 
and  hearty  support  may  be  accorded  it  from  American  ancestry' seekers — 
a  NUp])ort  tliat  will  not  only  secure  its  continuauce,  but  will  also  enable 
the    iiublisher  to  increase  the  numlter  of  ])ages  at  an  early  date. 

it  will  contain  hitherto  unpublished  genealogical  and  historical 
matter  from  original  sources,  such  as,  copies  of  Staie,  County,  Town  a)ul

The  King  Genealogy  is  arranged  on  the  well  known  "  Reg- 
ister Plan."  It  is  printed  in  large  type  on  good  paper  with 
wide  margins,  and  is  well  bound.  The  compiler  has  traced 
the  descendants  of  Clement  King  of  Marshfield,  Mass.,  and 
Providence,  R.  I.,  through  seven  generations,  giving  detailed 
accounts  of  eighty-six  families.  The  English  ancestry  of 
Clement  King  is  not  known,  hence  the  absence  of  the 
"  family  coat  of  arms,"  which  too  often  embellishes  American 
family  histories,  is  commendable.

COX   GENEALOGY. 

SOME     MATERIALS    TOWARDS   A  HISTORY   OF  THE   EARLY   COX   FAMILIES 
OF   NEW   ENGLAND. 

BY    REV.     JOHN    H.     COX,     OF    LEXINGTON,     MASS. 


WILLIAM  cox,  of  Pemaquid,  is  the  first  person  of  this 
name  in  New  England,  of  whom  we  have  any  record.  He  is 
supposed  to  have  come  from  the  vicinity  of  Bristol,  in  England,* 
where  the  name  is  common,  and  from  which  place  the  present 
town  of  Bristol,  Maine  (which  includes  the  location  of  the 
Pemaquid  settlement),  derives  its  name.  Even  the  Christian 
names  common  in  the  early  generations  of  the  family  here  were 
the  prevailing  ones  among  the  Co.xes  there  in  the  early  part  of 
the  seventeenth  century. 

He  first  appears  at  Pemaquid  as  a  witness  to  the  "first  deed 
of  conveyance  of  American  soil,  "f  dated  July  15,  1625,  by  which 
Captain  John  Somerset|  and  Unnongoit,  Indian  sagamores, 
convey  to  "John  Brown  of  New  Harbor"  a  tract  of  land  "Be- 
ginnmg  at  Pemaquid  Falls   and  so   running  a  direct    course  to  the

tion hath  continued  and  many  Families  are  now  [1660]  settled  there.  There  was  a 
Patent  granted  for  it  by  his  Maties :  Royall  Grandfather  and  by  vertue  of  that 
Patent  they  hold  the  Islands  of  Monahegan  and  Damerells  Coue,  and  other  small 
ones  adjacent  Commodious  for  fishing. — Maverick^s  Description  of  New  England,

head  of  Netv  Harbor,  from  thence  to  the  south  end  of  Muscongus 
Island,  taking  in  the  island,  and  so  running  five  and  twenty 
miles  into  the  country  north  and  by  east,  and  thence  eight  miles 
northwest  and  by  west,  and  then  turning  and  running  south  and 
by  west,  to  Pemaquid  where  first  begun." 

We  again  learn  of  William  Cox  through  the  deposition  of  John 
Pearce,  made  at  Manchester,  Mass.,  in  1735.  Pearce  was  born  at 
Muscongus,  near  Pemaquid  about  1644.*  He  knew  William  Cox 
who  lived  at  Cox's  Cove  and  owned  a  farm  bounded  southwesterly 
on  land  of  one  Cole,  northerly  on  land  of  John  Brown,  easterly  on 
land  of  one  Philips,  and  westerly  by  a  brook.  Was  this  northerly 
boundary  the  southern  boundary  of  John  Brown's  purchase  from 
the  Indian  sagamores,  viz.,  a  direct  course  from  Pemaquid  Falls  to 
the  head  of  New  Harbor?  If  it  was,  then  Cox's  Cove  must  have 
been  situated  on  the  eastern  side  of  the  Pemaquid  River,  not  as 
Johnston  states  (Bristol  and  Bremen,  218)  east  of  the  peninsula 
where  the  fort  stood,  but  farther  up  the  river  (as  he  surmises 
in  his  footnote),  in  order  to  have  a  brook  as  the  westerly  boun- 
dary of  Cox's  farm.  We  know  not  how  or  when  Cox  acquired 
this  farm,  neither  do  we  know  how  long  he  occupied  it  nor  how 
he  disposed  of  it.  Some  of  his  descendants,  in  one  line,  have 
continued  to  dwell  in  that  vicinity,  even  to  the  present  time, 
with  the  exception  of  brief  periods  when  the  Indians  forced  them 
to  seek  shelter  in  the  coast  towns  of  Massachusetts.  His  is  the 
only  name  still  borne  by  descendants  in  the  vicinity  of  Pema- 
quid, which  dates  back  to  the  time  of  the  settlement  of  the 
"  Company  of  People  "  by  Robert  Aldworth  and  Gyles  Elbridge, 
merchants,  of  Bristol. 

William  Cox  appears  on  record  for  the  last  time  (unless  he 
was  the  freeman  of  1674),  as  a  witness  to  a  deed,  dated  August 
8,  1660.  This  deed  was  from  his  old  neighbor,  "  John  Brown  of 
New  Harbor"  to  Brown's  son-in-law,  *'  Sander"  Gould,  and  Mar- 
garet his  wife,  and  conveyed  part  of  the  land  which  he  purchased 
of  the  Indian  sagamores  in  1625.  It  is  remarkable  that  the  same 
name  (Matthew  Newman)  which  appeared  as  witness  with  Cox 
to  the  deed  of  1625,  appears  again  as  fellow  witness  thirty-five 
years  later. 

At  a  court  held  at  Pemaquid  July  22,  1674,  by  Maj.  Thomas 
Clarke,  Humphry  Davy,   Richard  Collicott  and  Lieut.  Thomas

Gardiner,  under  an  order  fr.pm  the  General  Court*  of  Massachu- 
setts, Thomas  Cox  of  Pemaquid  took  his  oath  as  constable  and 
also  the  oath  of  fidelity,  and  the  following  Coxes  took  the  oath 
of  fidelity:  Jno  Cock,  Tho  Cox,  Jun,  Shadrick  Cox,  Richard 
Cox,  Tho  Cox,  W"i  Cox-  and  Tho  Cox.  Of  these  it  is  probable 
that  William,  Thomas,  Sen.,  and  John  were  sons  of  William 
Cox.  Shadrick  and .  Richard  may  have  been  either  sons  or 
grandsons.  Thomas  Cox,  Jun.  and  the  other  two  Thomases 
were  probably  grandsons. 

WILLIAM#€OX  of  Sagadahoc  and  Salem,  planter,  is  sup- 
posed to  have  been  a  son  of  William  of  Pemaquid.  This 
supposition  is  based  upon  the  statements  of  Capt.  Israel  Cox  of 
Bristol  and  the  depositions  of  Laurence  Denisf  and  the  broth- 
ers, John  arid  Thomas  CoxJ  of  Beverly.

84  Cox   Genealogy. 

Capt.  Israel  Cox  was  accustomed  to  say  that  the  William  Cox 
who  witnessed  the  Indian  deed  to  John  Brown  was  his  great- 
grandfather's father.* 

In  a  statement  about  his  family,  made  in  his  old  age  to  his 
nephew's  wife  and  recorded  by  her  in  a  family  Bible,  Capt.  Cox 
said  that  his  father  was  Ebenezer  who  was  born  in  Beverly  in 
1728,  and  that  this  Ebenezer  was  son  of  Thomas  and  grandson 
of  a  Thomas  Cox  who  came  from  England  and  settled  in  1642 
at  Cox's  Cove,  Pemaquid  harbor,  where  he  carried  on  a  fishing 
business.  These  statements  have  about  the  usual  value  of  such 
traditions.  He  is  correct  about  the  names  of  his  ancestors  as  far 
as  his  great-grandfather,  Thomas,  but  that  man,  according  to  his 
own  deposition,  was  not  born  until  about  twenty-two  years  after 
the  date  that  Capt.  Israel  locates  him  at  Pemaquid,  and  was  the 
son  of  John  instead  of  William.  While  it  appears  from  Capt.  Israel 
Cox's  own  statements  that  he  did  not  know  the  name  of  his 
great-grandfather's  father,  yet  when  we  consider  that,  with  the 
exception  of  a  single  generation,  his  ancestors  have  been  inhabi- 
tants of  Pemaquid  or  its  immediate  vicinity,  is  it  not  reasonable 
to  suppose  that  there  was  some  foundation  for  the  tradition  that 
he  was  descended  from  the  first  William  Cox  of  that  place? 
Admitting  this,  then  the  deposition  of  Laurence  Denis,  if  we 
allow  the  term  "brother  in  law"  to  mean  half-brother  as  it 
often  did  at  that  time,  gives  some  reason  for  the  supposition 
that  William  Cock  of  Sagadahoc  was  a  son  of  William  of  Pema- 
quid. It  also  indicates  that  William  Cox  of  Pemaquid  was  twice 
married. 

We  first  learn  of  William  Cox  of  Sagadahoc  through  the  case 
of  Tead  against  Collicott.  f  It  appears  from  the  testimony  of  the 
various  witnesses  that  John  Richards,  William  Cox  and  other 
inhabitants  of  the  territory  at  the  Kennebec  lying  within  the 
Plymouth  Patent  seized  a  vessel  owned  and  commanded  by 
Joshua  Tead  of  Charlestown,  in  May  1656,  upon  the  charge  of 
trading    with    the    natives    contrary    to    the  patent. 

William  Cox  had  a  farm  on  the  western  side  of  the  Kennebec 
river  which  he  bought  of  Thomas  Atkins  or  Adkins.  %     This  farm

He  was  probably  the  freeman  of  that  name  at  Pemaquid  in 
1674.  At  the  same  time  and  place  he  was  granted  a  license  to

I.  John^  Cox  {William-^  ?),  "  Brother  in  law  "  of  William  Cox 
of  Sagadahoc,  was  born,  probably  at  Pemaquid,  before

at  Cox's  Head,  and  remained  there  three  years.  The  depo-

coln County  Land  Claims,  page  106;  Johnston's  Bristol  and

"  Capt  John  Summerset  "  who  sold  land  at  Muscongus  to  Richard 
Pearce,  Jan.  g,  1641,  {New  England  Hist,  and  Gen.  Reg- 
ister., XIII.  365,  Johnston's  Bristol  and  Bremen,  pages  52, 
63,  234,  237),  the  "  Captaine  Sommarset "  who  sold  land  to 
William  Parnell,  Thomas  Way  and  William  England,  in  July 
1653,  {Coll.  Maine  Hist.  Soc.  Vol.  V.  page  188),  and  the 
"  Summersant  "  whom  Josselyn  mentions  in  1673  as  for- 
merly a  famous  Sachem  among  the  Eastern  Indians  {Josselyn's 
Voyages  to  New-England,  1865  edition,  page  113). 

These  depositions  add  a  new  and  interesting  item  to  our 
previous  knowledge  of  this  famous  Sagamore,  establish  the  date 
of  John  Pearce's  birth  as  about  1653  rather  than  1644  (see  ante 
p.  82),  and  prove  that  John  Pearce  was  a  son  rather  than  a 
grandson  of  Richard  and  Elizabeth  (Brown)  Pearce  of  Mus- 
congus. The  gift  of  this  island  to  John  and  Elizabeth 
Pearce,  even  if  made  during  the  childhood  of  John  Pearce, 
must  have  occurred  after  the  date  of  the  deed  to  Parnall,  Way 
and  England,  and  is  clearly  the  last  known  act  of  Somerset. 
The  word  "bequeathed"  in  the  deposition  of  John  Pearce, 
suggests  that  it  may  have  been  the  closing  act  of  his  life. 

Much  has  been  written  about  the  spelling  and  pronunciation 
of  the  name  of  this  Indian  chieftain.  It  will  be  noticed  that  the 
present  accepted  spelling,  Samoset,  is  a  corruption  of  the 
"  Samaset  "  of  Bradford,  and  that  both  of  these  forms  have  their 
foundation  in  Bradford's  History  and  Mourt's  Relation  only.  It 
will  also  be  noticed  that  in  the  other  original  sources  the  name 
occurs  as  Somerset,  or  a  corruption  of  this  good  old  English 
word.  It  seems  to  me  quite  probable  that  this  Indian,  who  had 
such  a  high  regard  for  everything  English,  did  not  stop  at  the 
exchange  of  his  Indian  title  for  "  Captain  John,"  but  adopted 
for  a  surname  the  name  of  the  county  from  which  many  of  his 
English  acquaintances  came.

HON.    PETER    BULKELEY,    M.A. 

i;y    ruth    wood   hoag,   of  boston. 

In  the  records  of  Concord  births  and  burials,  1639-1644,  col- 
lected by  Mr.  Stephen  Winthrop  at  Boston,  we  hnd  : — "Peter 
the  Sonne  of  M""  Edward  Buckley  was  borne  the  3°  (n°)  1640  " 
that  is,  January  3,  1640.  O.  S.*  The  name  of  his  mother  is  not 
known.  Peter  Bulkeley  came  from  a  distinguished  family, 
being  of  the  twelfth  generation  from  Robert  Bulkeley  Esq.,  one 
of  the  English  Barons  who,  in  the  reign  of  King  John  (who 
died  in  1216),  was  Lord  of  the  Manor  of  Bulkeky,  in  the  county 
Palatine  of  Chester.     Peter's  grandfather, f  Rev.    Peter  Bulkeley, 


*NoTE  : — From    other    dates   on    the  record,  for  instance,  28°  (2°)  1641,  we   see 
that  the  tirst  numeral  refers  to  the  day,  and  the  second  to  the    month.      Uiiiil    Sept. 
4752  in  Eni^land  an^l  her  coh)nies  the  year  hegan  on    March    25th  and    March    was  ■ 
called  the  hrst  month.     The  11  in  the  date  3°  (11°)   1640  must  then    mean  January. 

fNoTE: — The  children  of  Rev.  Peter  Bulkeley  by  his  first  wife,  Jane  Allen, 
>vere :  —  Edward,  Mary,  Thomas,  Nathaniel  John,  Mary,  George,  Daniel,  Jahez, 
Joseph,  William  and  Richard.  By  his  second  wife,  Grace  Chit^voo  1,  thiy  were:  — 
(iershom,  Eliezer,  Dorothy  and  Peter.  This  Peter  was  born  at  C'oncord  Aug,  12, 
(643.  Many  people  have  supjiosed  that  he  was  the  Hon.  Peter  Bulkeley  of  Concord, 
the  subject  of  this  sketch.  I>ut  two  wills  tend  to  prove  that  he  was  not,  and  that  he 
lived  at  Fairlield,  Ct.  His  brother,  Gershom,  mentioned  above,  in  his  will  made 
May  2,  1 71 2,  a  year  before  he  died,  says:— ■"  Item,  to  my  brother  Peter's  chililren 
(Gershom,  Peter,  Grace,  Margaret  and  Dorothec)  I  give  each  of  them  ten  shillings  " 
•:tc.  The  son  of  Rev.  Peter  Bulkeley  and  Grace  must  then  have  had  the  above 
named  children.  Now  a  Peter  Bulkeley  at  Fairfield  ^Sec  E.  IJ.  Schenek's  Hist,  of 
Fdir/ield).  in  his  will  dated  March  25,  1691  [1692]  mentions  a  son  Peter  and 
daughters  Grace  and  Margaret.  He  was  of  the  right  age  to  be  the  Ptter,  son  of 
><ev.  Peter  Bulkeley,  for  he  speaks  of  himself  in  this  will  as  "  in  the  49  year  of  his 
age."  Two  sons  of  Rev.  Peter  Bulkeley,  Thomas  and  Daniel,  went  to  Fairfield  in 
:(644  in  company  with  Rev.  John  Jones,  and  were  among  its  first  settlers.  It  is 
probable  then,  that  tliis  Peter  of  Fairlield  was  the  son  of  Rev.  Peter  Bulkeley,  and 
that  the  Hm.  Peter  Bulkeley  was  the  grandson  of  Rev.  Peter,  and  son  of  Kev. 
Eduard  Bulkeley,  as  has  been  assumed  in  this  article 

When  Rev.  Peter  Bulkeley  died  in  1659,  his  widow  soon  accompanied  her  son 
Gershom  to  New  London,  where  there  is  record  of  her  buying  a  house  of  William 
Hough.  Simon  Rradstreet,  of  New  London,  in  his  journal  under  date  of  April  21, 
•  669,  writes: — ''Mrs.  Grace  Bulkely  ye  widow  of  Mr  Peter  Bulkeley,  sometimes 
pastor  of  ye  church  of  Concord,  deceased.  She  was  a  woman  of  great  piety  and 
./isdom  and  dyed  in  a  good  old  age." 


Hon.   Peter  Bulkeley.  1 21 

came  to  America  in  1635,  111  the  Susan  and  Ellen,  and  was  the 
first  pastor  ot  the  church  in  Concord.  Tne  eldest  son  of  RfV. 
P.cin  B  ilkele/,  b/  his  first  wite  Jane,  daughter  of  Thomas 
Allen  ot  Gjldington,  was  Rev.  Edward^  B.ilkeley,  who  preached 
at  Marshfield,  and  later  succeeded  his  father  as  pastor  of  the 
Concord  church.  Siwall,  m  his  diary,  mentions  Edward's  death 
as  follows:  ''Jan.  4,  1695-6  Tne  Rev'd  Mr.  Edward  Bulkly 
ot  Concord  dies  at  Chelmsford  in  a  good  old  age,  is  buried  at 
Concord."  Peterj  Billceley,  eldest  son  of  Rev.  Edward  B  i lite- 
ley,  graduated  from  Harvard  College  in  the  class  of  1660,  took  a 
second  degree,  and  in  1663  was  chosen  a  Fellow. 

On  May  ir,  1670,  Peter  Bulkeley  was  '' admitted  to  freedome." 
Tnree  years  later,  May  7,  16/3,  he  was  elected  deputy  for  Con- 
cord, to  the  Gen«-ral  Court.  He  was  reelected  for  the  three 
succeeding  years,  and  during  the  last  year,  1676,  he  served  as 
Speaker.  For  eight  years,  from  16/7  to  16H4  inclusive,  he  was 
elected  to  the  office  of  Assistant,  and  in  1682  and  '83,  he  was, 
besides.  Second  Commissioner,  and  in  1684  First  Commissioner  in 
Reserve.  During  this  time  he  frequently  performed  important 
duties.  When  various  charges  had  been  raised  in  England 
against  Massachusetts,  especially  in  regard  to  the  colony's 
usurping  authority  over  land  claimed  by  Gorges  in  Maine  and 
by  Mason  in  New  Hampshire,  and  also  in  regard  to  the  great 
iniepandence  of  the  colony  in  miking  laws,  it  was  Peter 
Bulkeley  who,  with  William  Stoughton,  was  sent  to  England  to 
treat  with  the  King.  They  sailed  September  6,  1676,  and 
returned  in  December,  1679.  On  May  ig,  1680,  Peter  Bulkeley 
was  appointed  a  member  of  a  committee  to  revise  the  laws  in 
accordance  with  the  demands  of  the  King.  When  the  Militia 
needed  reorganization,  t:)Ulkeley,  with  the  title  of  Major,  was 
given  command  of  half  of  the  former  regiment  of  \liddlesex.  This 
was  October  13,  1680.  On  March  30,  1683,  Major  Bulkeley  was 
appointed  one  of  the  magistrates  to  keep  a  court  in  Essex  for 
the  trial  of  the  cases  in  reference  to  the  claims  of  .VIr.  Mason  in 
that  county. 

When,  in  1686,  the  charter  of  the  colony  was  revoked  and 
Joseph  Dudley  was  appointed  President,  Major  Peter  Bulkeley 
was  one  of  the  counsellors  in  the  commission  associated  with 
Dudley.      Later   in   the  year,   when     Andros   became   governor, 

16 


122  Hon.   Peter  Bulkeley. 

Bulkeley  was  named  in  his  commission.  He  was  re-appointed 
in  April,  1688.  By  the  order  of  Governor  Andros  issued  iMarch 
3,  1687,  "  for  the  establishment  of  courts  of  judicature  and 
public  justice,"  Joseph  Dudley  was  made  Chief  Justice  with 
Peter  Bulkeley  and  William  Stoughton  his  associates.  Put,  it 
we  are  to  credit  Randolph's  statements,  Major  Bulkeley  was  by 
this  time  quite  infirm  and  hardly  equal  to  the  duties  devolving 
upon  him.  Randolph  says,  in  a  letter  to  Mr.  Blaithwait  dated 
July  28.  1686  :  — "  Honest  ajor  J  ulkeley  is  quite  tyred  out  and 
(an  hardly  be  perswaded  to  come  to  Boston."  Later,  writing  to 
Mr.  Povey,  Jan.  24,  1688,  of  the  great  necessity  of  sending 
judges  from  England,  he  says:  —  "  As  for  \  r.  )>ulkeley,  he  is 
stupified  and  drown  in  melancholy  and  almost  useless,  being 
seldom  with  us."  Sewall  writes  of  his  death  thus  :  «'  May  25, 
1688.  Col.  Peter  Bulkeley  of  Concord,  dies,  having  languished 
lor  a  long  time.     Died  this  Friday  about  eleven  o'clock." 

Hon.  Peter3  Bulkeley  married  Rebecca,  daughter  of  Lieut. 
Joseph  and  Sarah  Wheeler,  on  April  16,  1667.  Their  children 
were  :  — 

1.  Edward    b.    Mar.    18,  1669 

2.  Joseph  b.  Sept.  7,    1670.    m.  (0  Widow  Rebecca  Minot- 

(2)  Silence  Jeffrey. 

3.  John  b.  July  \o,  1773 

4.  Rebecca  b.  1681     m.  Jonathan  Prescott  Jr. 

Hon.  Peter  Bulkeley's  widow  married,  as  his  third  wife,  Jona- 
than Prescott,  son  of  John  and  Mary  Platts  Prescott,  and  father 
of  Jonathan  Prescott,  Jr.,  who  married  her  daughter  Rtbecca. 

The  original  of  the  portrait  of  Hon.  Peter  Bulkeley  which 
appears  with  this  article,  is  supposed  to  have  been  painted  by 
Sir  Godfrey  Kneller  during  the  time  when  Mr.  Bulkeley  was  in 
England,  as  agent  for  the  Massachusetts  colony,  1676-79.  It 
is  said  that  the  shape  and  position  of  the  hand  are  character- 
istic of  Sir  Godfrey's  portrait  paintings.  In  the  summer  of 
1851,  a  copy  of  the  portrait  was  painted  by  Mr.  William  H. 
Scarborough,  of  Columbia,  S.  C,  for  a  Mr.  Bulkeley,  of  South 
Carolina.  The  original  is  now  in  the  possession  of  Mrs  George 
D.  Sargent  of  Boston.  The  reproduction  in  this  magazine  is 
furnished  by  William  Prescott  Greenlaw,  a  descendant  of 
Hon.    Peter  Bulkeley  through  this  line  : —

herself  and  the  late  David  B.  Pilsbury,  for  the  descendants  of
