Introduction
To the First Edition.
Eight years have elapsed since I began tracing the rec-
ords of mv Harwood ancestors and relatives, and I have
now the pleasure of presenting to the descendants of my
ancestor, James Harwood, this brief sketch of our branch
of the New England Harwoods.
When I first began tracing the records I had no thought
of writing the family history. I was led to engage in the
work simplv from a desire to know more of my ancestry
in the Harwood line. P!ut as my interest in the work in-
creased, I decided to publish the records in some form, so
that the memory of our ancestors might be perpetuated,
and we, their descendants, might come to know more of
one another.
Being the first to write the history of our branch of
Harwoods, I have had to collect most of the records from
original sources, thus adding greatly to the labor of the
undertaking I here wish to acknowledge the kindness of
those who have aided me with their letters or orally in
tracing out these records. A list of those who have thus
aided me will be found at the end of the book.
In arranging these records, I have aimed to give the
facts which I have collected in as plain and concise a man-
ner as possible, and so arranged that the connection may
be easilv seen. With regard to this arrangement it will

be noticed that all who have borne the name of Harwood
are numbered, beginning with our common ancestor,
James, and carrying the order down through all the gen-
erations. An index will be found in the back part of the
book giving the name and number of each Harwood
whose name is enrolled in this work.
I have taken particular care to get the names and dates
correct and I think that all parts of the record may be re-
lied upon as accurate.
In conclusion I would say that this has been a work re-
quiring much labor and expense ; and I hope it may meet
the ends for which it is designed in giving us a better
knowledge of our ancestors, and enabling us, their descen-
dants, to become better acquainted with one another.
Should this hope be realized, my labor will not have been
in vain.

Preface
To the Second Edition.
Seventeen years ago I published in pamphlet form the
results of my work up to that time in tracing the history
and records of our branch of the New England Harwoods.
I was then but a young man trying to make my wav
through school and college, with little time and means at
my disposal for engaging in genealogical researches. But
I loved the latter work, to me it was rest and recreation,
and in such a spirit I followed it 'till the little book al-
luded to above was compiled and published.
Since then many experiences such as are common to this
life have come to me, but none which has brought such
pain as the loss in 1890, of my then only child, a bright,
beautiful boy, who in the ten months God permitted him
to stay with us, completely wove himself into my life and
affections. In my loneliness after his death the thought
came to me that I would take up the work I had all along
intended sometime to do — complete and publish a second
edition of the history of our family.
Ever since the first edition was published I have contin-
ued to collect materials for a second, and I think the rec-
ords herein contained will be found as accurate and com-
plete as it is now possible to make them. Nevertheless, it
can hardly be expected that no errors will be made in such
a work ; it is even possible that there may be errors in the
6 PREFACE TO SECOND EDITION.
very arrangement of the early generations of the family.
When we remember that there are several distinct
branches of Harwoods in New England, as well as several
in the Southern States, and that the ancestors of these
different families immigrated from England to America at
about the same time; when we further take into account
that in almost every town where our forefathers dwelt,
there were also living families of the other branches of our
name; and when with all this we take into consideration
that the early town records, which were often but imper-
fectly kept, are now in many places lost, we cannot think
it strange that such a work should be incomplete in spite
of the most careful painstaking. All that the most faith-
ful genealogist can do is to take the materials now ob-
tainable, study carefully each doubtful record, and give it
the place to which it seems most probably to belong.
This I have done, and in cases of uncertainty, I have used
the word "probably," or some word of similar import, to
mark the uncertainty.
With these explanations and introductory remarks, I
now place in the hands of my kinsmen who share with me
the honor of bearing the good old English name of Har-
wood, this volume, confident that it will prove not only
interesting, but will also serve to draw and bind the mem-
bers of our family still closer together, scattered as they
are from Maine to California.

Preface
To the Third Edition.
After forty years of laborious effort, I have now the his-
torvof theHarwood families descended from my ancestor,
Andrew Harwood, of Dartmouth, England, aud Boston,
Massachusetts, as complete as such a work can well be
made.
One marked difference in this edition from the former
two editions lies in the fact that I am now enabled to give
certified records in many places in the earlier history of
the Familv, where formerly I had to offer only what
seemed the most probable but not certainly proven rec-
ords. I am pleased, however, to find that my former
guesses and deductions were in most cases very near the
well established facts now given in this book. For the
happv solution of these difficulties and for many impor-
tant additions to the history of the earlier generations of
our branch of the New England Harwoods.I am indebted
chief! v to Rev. Anson Titus, of Boston, Mass., James
Allen Kibbe, Esq , of Warehouse Point, Conn., and Hon.
Ezra S. Stearns, of Fitehburg, Mass., all able genealogists
and writers on local town history. For the very satisfac-
tory records ot two or three generations of our Family in
England, I am wholly indebted to H. W. Forsyth Har-
wood, Esq., of London, England. Without his most gen-
erous aid I could never have located with certainty the

English home of the ancestors of our line of Harwoods.
In presenting this edition of the History of our Familv
to my kinsmen and friends, I can but again express the
hope that it will prove useful and interesting to them all.
We have in this life many duties to fulfil both to God and
to man, and surely one of them is to keep alive a knowl-
edge ol the men and women to whom we owe our verv
existence, and who wrought well to make it possible for
us to enjoy far greater comfort and privilege than they
themselves had. To forget them, to let all knowledge of
them perish from among men would be little short of
"base ingratitude," and would reflect anything but credit
upon us, their descendants and beneficiaries. Here, then,
is our monument to their memory, as well as a bond that
shall hold us together as long as present conditions shall
exist.

Note. — In many cases in the following records, I have
mentioned church membership, lodge associations, etc.
Doubtless very many others were and are members of
churches and of other associations, but mv informants in
writing of them failed to mention these important items.

Origin of our Family and Name.
THE name of Harwood is a very old name in Eng-
land, and its origin has been variously explained
by writers on genealogy and heraldry. Burke, in
his "Commoners of Great Britain," adopts the claim
which has long been made that the Harwoods derive their
name and descent from Hereward the Saxon, and I my-
self copied Burke quite fully in my second edition of "Har-
wood Families," published in 1896. Several other fami-
lies in England with names somewhat like Harwood have
also attempted to trace their lineage to Hereward. Lieu-
tenant-General Harward, in his work entitled, "Here-
ward, the Saxon Patriot," published in London, 1896,
while claiming descent from Hereward for his line, denies
it to others whose names vary slightly. He says of the
Harwoods: "They derive their name from offices held un-
der the Norman Forest Laws. In the registered armorial
bearings of Harwood of Hagbourne and Streatley, one of
the most ancient and respectable of these families, their
arms are: Argent, a chevron between three stags' heads
caboshed gules. These are clearly the bearings of an offi
cer posessing power and privilege under the Forest Laws
Still further indication is afforded of the right meaning
of the name Harwood by the crest of the same family
which is: On a wreath, a stag's head caboshed, gules
having in its mouth an oak bough proper acorned, or
10 GENEALOGICAL HISTORY.
Here is literally the 'wood' typified by the oak bough and
acorn, in addition to the forestwarder's emblem of the
stag's head. The forest officers were nearly all of Norman
extraction. They were of several grades — wardens, ver-
durers, foresters, etc." Thus far I have quoted Lieut. -
Gen. Harward.
If, however, there is a man in England, or in the world,
for that matter, who should be regarded as an authority
on the origin of the name of Harwood, that man is H. W.
Forsyth Harwood, Esq., a distinguished Barrister-at-
Law, and Editor of "The Genealogist," published in Lon-
don. In reply to my request for his opinion on the origin
of our name, he sent me the following excellent letter:
"15 Rugby Mansions, Kensington W.,
Aug. 20, 1907.
Dr. W. H. Harwood,
Chasm Falls, New York, U. S. A.
Dear Sir:—
I must apologize for having left your letter so long un-
answered, but I have been much occupied since I received
it.
You ask for my opinion on the origin of the name of
•Harwood. I have made a considerable study of the sub-
ject, and have come to the conclusion that the different
families bearing the name of Harwood, Harward, Her-
ward, Horwood, etc., are not all of common origin, and
that the name has been derived in various ways.
In the case of my own family, whose pedigree in Burke's
"Commoners" and "Landed Gentry" was compiled in a
very unscientific period for genealogical research, the Sub-
sidy Rolls for Berkshire show that persons named Here-
ward were living at East Hagbourne in the reign of Ed-
ward III., and our ancestors were undoubtedly settled in
the same parish in the reign of Elizabeth. But I do not
ORIGIN OF OUR FAMILY AND NAME. 11
believe in the alleged descent from Hereward the Wake,
who left only a daughter and heir. Hereward was a
rather usual Saxon Christian name, and it would be no
more absurd to suppose that all persons named Edwards
are sprung from one single Edward, than that all Har-
woods come from one individual named Hereward.
But by far the greater number of Harwoods derive the
name from a place, as Great Harwood in Lancashire,
and Horwood in Buckinghamshire. The Staffordshire
"Whorwoods come from a manor of Horewood in
Compton, and the numerous Yorkshire Harwoods from
Harewood in that Countv. Again, the name is occasion-
ally, though rarely, synonymous with Howard. In Gra-
zebrook's "Heraldry of Worcestershire," a family of Har-
wood is recorded as bearing the Howard arms. I do
not at all agree with General Harward's conclusions,
nor regard him as an authority.
Yours faithfully,
H. W. Forsyth Harwood.
(In justice to Lieut. -Gen. Harward, we will state that
his claim to descent from Hereward is based upon an al-
leged second marriage of the Saxon hero ; however, we
do not believe General Harward's claim to such descent
is any stronger than that of any Harwood or person
bearing similar name. In fact, no one living can trace his
descent from Hereward the Saxon. But we know that
families of our name have dwelt in various parts of Eng-
land from a very remote period ; and our own South Dev-
onshire Harwoods are as likely to be a branch of the Sax-
on hero's descendants as any. But whether Saxon or
Norman in their origin, we know they were of good Eng-
lish blood, and we believe that the various families of the
name in America are not proving themselves unworthy of
the ancestry from which they sprung.— W. H. H. |
Crests and Coats of Arms.
These family emblems have been worn with various mod-
ifications from time immemorial in countries civilized and
savage. They are not, as some might suppose, employed
for mere "idle show," but are useful and necessary in
many ways which I have not here space to explain.
Through the generous gift of Hon. Charles E. Harwood
and son, Charles W. Harwood, Esq., of Lynn, Mass., and
the great kindness of Daniel Donovan, Esq., of the same
city, who is an acknowledged authority in such matters,
we are enabled to present the members of our family with
a very accurate reproduction in colors of the most ancient
Coat of Arms worn by families of our name in the Mother
Country. This will appear as the frontispieee to this
work. Also, Mr. Donovan has copied for us the descrip-
tions of nearly twenty modifications of this ancient family
device, as worn by the various branches of the name in
England. Following are the descriptions :—

The Harwood Families
Of New England.
There are three great Families or Branches of the New
England Harwoods. I am well aware that several per-
sons of the name besides the ancestors of the three Fami-
lies came early to New England, but they either left no
posterity that has come down to our time, or they were
unmarried, or probably in the case of some, they finally
removed to some colony outside of New England, or
returned to Old England. Certain it is, that after 4-0
years spent in genealogical research and studies, and cor-
respondence with persons of our name in all parts of the
United States, I have never come across a Harwood, who
was of New England origin who did not trace his lineage
to one or another of these three great Families of the
New England Harwoods.
We will now briefly consider each of these Families:
I. THE SALEM," MASSACHUSETTS, FAMILY. De-
scended from Henry Harwood and Elizabeth, his wife, who
came from England with Governor Winthrop, in 1630.
Thev lived for a little time in Boston, and were members
of the church there, but were dismissed in 1631, to help
found the church in Charlestown. Henry Harwood de-
sired to he admitted freeman, Oct. 10, 1630, and took the
oath of freeman, in 1633. It is claimed that Henry died
about 1635, his Hie having been shortened by extraordi-
18 GENEALOGICAL HISTORY.
nary suffering in a storm, mentioned by Winthropin some
of his writings. There was a Henry Harwood living in
Salem, Mass., in 1638, made freeman, Feb. 28, 1643, died
about 1664. George Harwood and Jane, his wife, were
living in Salem in 1639. He was a carpenter, and had
previously lived in Boston. He had a son John, born July
4, 1639, and two daughters. This George Harwood with
his family and 41 others from Salem and Gloucester,
Mass., removed to New London, Conn., in 1651, being
earl v settlers in that town. In 1726, a John Harwood
died in New London, aged 23 years, leaving no family,
and he is said to have been the last of this family in that
place.
Coming back now to Henry and Elizabeth Harwood, of
Charlestown, they had a son, John, baptized in Boston,
June 3, 1632. He married Emma , July 11, 1659.
She was born in 1628. They settled in that part of Salem
now called Peabody. Their children were: John, born
January 10, 1660, died young; Jonathan, born .April 16,
1662, died young; John, born April 28, 1664; Jonathan,
born June 18, 1666; David, born June 23, 1668; Alice,
born Nov. 28, 1672.
From this family have descended the numerous and very
respectable families of our name who early lived in Salem,
Danvers, Charlton, Barre, Sutton and Oxford, Mass.
We know from the will of Henry Harwood, of Salem,
who died in 1664, that he left no children. There was a
Henry Harwood, of Boston and Salem, who was by occu-
pation a shoemaker, who by his wife, Elizabeth, had five
children, born at Salem between the years 1665 and 1674,
but the record says this family "went back to Boston. " Still
there may be Harwood's at the present time who are de-
scendants of this last mentioned Henry. If so, they should
be numbered with the Salem Branch, as there is hardly
roomfor doubt that the three HenrvHarwoods whoearlv
THE HARWOOD FAMILIES OF NEW ENGLAND. 19
lived in Salem were near of kin — in short, the last men-
tioned Henry was probably a son of the Henry who came
over with Governor Winthrop, although we have no
record of his birth.
Many of the Salem Branch have taken a lively interest
in the history of their familv. The}' have held several
Harwood meetings, to which they have invited all Har-
woods, whether of their line or not. Clayton E. Har-
wood, of Rockville, Conn., has done much work in com-
piling the records of his ancestrv and kindred.
Miss Mary Robinson Harwood, of Salem, has also done
excellent work in the same line.
II. THE NATHANIEL BRANCH. Four brothers,
Thomas, Robert, John and Nathaniel Harwood, came
early to Boston, from England. A sister, Hannah, came
with them.
These four brothers were the sons of John Harwood, of
London. It is thought that the father never came to
America, or, if he came, returned later to England.
1. Thomas Harwood, was born in England, in 1623,
died in Boston, January 5, 1707, aged 84 years. He mar-
ried Rachel widow of Robert Woodward, Julv 7, 1654.
There were born unto them six children, but nearlv all
died young, and Benjamin, who married, left only a
daughter.
2. Robert Harwood, born in England. He married,
about 1671, Joanna . They had one son, Thomas,
born Jaunary 31, 1673. He died in early manhood. Rob-
ert Harwood was a "biscake baker" by occupation. He
died about 1676.
3. John Harwood, born in England. He married Eliz-
abeth •. Their children born in Boston, were: Eliz-
abeth, born March 13, 1650; Hezekiah, born April 27,
1653, died young; Hannah, born March 6, 1655, and
Anna, born Aug. 26, 1657. They had alsoason, John, as
20 GENEALOGICAL HISTORY.
we learn from existing records that the father of the
family, who was a merchant in Boston, sold his estate in
1657, and went back to England, but his son John re-
mained in Boston, carrying on business under the direction
of his father who was of London, England
4. Nathaniel Harwood, born in England, in 1626. He
married Elizabeth . They resided in Boston, until
after 1665, when they removed to Concord, Mass. Na-
thaniel was by trade a cordwainer. The children of Na-
thaniel and Elizabeth Harwood were:
1. William, born in Boston, March 28, 1665. He mar-
ried Esther, daughter of Obadiah Perry, of Dunstable,
May 11, 1692. They lived in Dunstable, where he was
quite a prominent man. Their children were: John, born
May 28, 16£9, who served under Capt. Lovewell and was
killed in the Pigwacket Fight, May 8, 1725; Thomas,
born 1702 and was quite a man of affairs in Dunstable ;
and six daughters.
2. Nathaniel, born in Concord, Mass., Oct. 1, 1669,
married and has descendants.
3. Pexer, born in Concord, January 12, 1671. He mar-
ried Mary Fox, Nov. 7, 1700. He became the ancestor of
numerous families of Harwoods in Massachusetts. One
of these families were among the first settlers of Benning-
ton, Vt. The children of Peter and Mary Harwood were:
Nathaniel, born 1701; John, born 1703; Mary, born
1705; Joseph, born 1707; Hannah, born 1709 ; Benjamin,
born 1713, and Ebenezer, born 1714.
4. John, born in Concord, Feb. 8, 1674.
5. Mary, born in Concord, Feb. 5, 1676.
Nathaniel Harwood died in Concord, Feb. 1716, aged
90 years. His wife, Elizabeth, died April 25, 1715.
There have not been found wanting among the descend-
ants of Nathaniel and Elizabeth Harwood, able and en-
thusiastic genealogists. As early as 1837, Mrs. Sarah
THE HARWOOD FAMILIES OF NEW ENGLAND. 21
Harwood Robinson, of the Bennington, Vt., line, compiled
and published the records of the descendants of Peter Har-
wood, of Concord, Mass., son of the first Nathaniel. The
late Myron W. Harwood, of Springfield, Mass., probably
did more than anvone of our name has ever done in col-
lecting records of all the Harwoods in America. The late
Dr. E. V. N. Harwood, of Rutland, Vt., Herbert J. Har-
wood, of Littleton, Mass., and Fred H. Harwood, of
Chicago, 111., have each accomplished much in gathering
records of their ancestry and kindred. It would be a
grand work for some one in each of these great families of
New England Harwoods, as well as in the great Southern
Families of our name, to arrange these materials, gath-
ered at such great cost of time, effort and money, and
issue them in permanent book form. But let all remember
that one man or one woman cannot well do this work
alone. It is something each member of the Branch having
its history published, should freely and cheerfully forward
both by furnishing promptly all information and records
the compiler may lack, and by contributing money liber-
ally to meet the expense of publication. If some one in
your Branch undertakes this work, do all in your power
to assist and encourage him. You have just as much in-
terest in the Family to which you belong as he has — at
least you ought to have as much. Let us hope to see ere
long a volume published of each of the three great New-
England Branches, and also of the great Virginia and
Maryland Harwood Families in the South.
We now come to the third of the great Branches of the
New England Harwoods.
III. THE DESCENDANTS OF ANDREW HARWOOD,
of Dartmouth, England, and Boston, Mass.
The records of his descendants will be found in the bodv
of this work.
The Harwood Families
Of Virginia and Maryland
Families of our name were settled in Virginia at an
early period in the history of the Colony. One of the first
was Thomas Harwood, who came in 1622, in the Marga-
ret and John. He was a member of the House of Bur-
gesses, and a prominent man in the Colony. Then there
was Augustine, and William, and Paule, and Ralph, and
Richard, and Robert, and Arthur, and George, and prob-
ably still others of the name, all early in Virginia.
The Harwoods, too, were early settled in Maryland.
One of the most prominent families of the name in Mary-
land is that descended from Richard Harwood, who came
of an excellent family in England. He settled in Anne
Arundel County, Maryland, prior to the year 1698. But
there were families of the name in Maryland long before
the coming of Richard. The descendants of the early Vir-
ginia and Maryland Harwoods are numerous, and we
hope that the records of these important branches may
soon be compiled and published.

of Devonshire. The earliest record we have of him is con-
tained in the will of his cousin, or kinsman, Stephen Har-
wood, of St. Saviours, Dartmouth, Devon, cooper, who
was dying ot the plague at the time his will was made.
This will was dated Sept. 5, 1627, and "proved Nov. 16,
1627, in the Court of the Archdeacon of Totnes, bv Grace
Mann, sister, and one of the executrices and residuary
legatees, power being reserved to Ester, the daughter of
Kinsman Andrew Harwood, the other executrix and re-
siduary legatee."

Bond by Andrew Horwood, of Dartmouth, cooper, and
John Beere, of the same, Tayler, in £50, dated 16 Nov.,
1627, both made marks. The bond states that the execu-
trix Grace Mann, was the wife of William Mann.
March 14, 1628: "Exhibited Inventory of the Goods
of Stephen Harwood, of Dartmouth, cooper, taken by John
Beere and William Pethibridge, and dated 10 Feb., 1628,
£30: 6: 2 (which included musket, bandaleere, and a
sword 12s., musket rest 6d., and a Bible 6s|". Then fol-
lows: " Things yet in ye custodie of her which served him
in ye pest house," which brought the bal. to £37: 3: 2, or
really £37: 3: 8.
In the above will Harwood is in everv instance spelled
Horwood, but in the Inventory it is Harwood. In those
days the name was written Harwood, Horwood, and
Harward, these variations being often found in the same
register or document.
The next mention we have of our ancestor, Andrew
Harwood, is in the record of the baptisms of his two
younger children, Hannah and Samuel, in the Parish Reg-
isters of St. Saviours, Dartmouth.
Sometime, not far from 1640, our ancestor immigrated
to America. It is certain that not all of his children came
with him, but one, Mrs. Thomas Finson, (who may have
been the "Ester" mentioned in Stephen Harwood's will}
must have accompanied him, as they were living together
in Boston, Mass., in 1644; and possibly one or two others
naay also have come with him.
The earliest record we have of our ancestor in New
England is that he was made freeman in Boston, Feb. 28,
1643. In Nov. 1644, we find his name mentioned in the
will of his son-in-law, Thomas Finson, which reads as fol-
lows: " Whereas Thomas ffinson, mariner, late of dart-

mouth, dyed abord the shipp Gilbert, in September last,
Oades Bayle being present, the said ffinson by word of
mouth declared this to be his last will and testament, as
followeth: Imprimis, to his sonne Samuel fyve pounds of
English money; Item, tohischild that his wife went with-
all fifty shillings; Item, to his wife one Hogshead of To-
bacco; Item, to his ffather-in-lawe, Andrew Harwood, all
his wages. And, farther his will was that the fifty shil-
lings for the young child and the hogshead of Tobacco
for his wife should be delivered to Andrew Harwood for
the use aforesaid."
"Deposed the first of the 9th month, 1644, by Oades
Bayle before the Court, and made a matter of record in
Boston, April 23, 164-5."
The last mention we have of our ancestor is in connec-
tion with a legal controversy going on between two of
his neighbors, Christopher Lawson and Thomas Beard.
A record was made of this by William Aspenwall, a no-
tary public of Boston. This was in September, 1645.
There is little doubt that Andrew Harwood remained
with his daughter, Mrs. Finson, till his death. The Fin-
sons became a fairly numerous family in Massachusetts,
the earlier generations living in Gloucester.
Second Generation.
Children of Andrew Haewood, No. 1. All born in
Dartmouth, England.
2. Esther, one ot" the executrices of Stephen Har-
wood's will. She may have been the one who afterward
married Thomas Finson.
3. Andrew, died and his burial is recorded Oct. 16,
1626.
4. Nicholas, married Maria Ameredith, Feb. 16,
1639. They resided in Dartmouth.
5. William, mentioned in Stephen Harwood's will.
6. John, died and his burial is recorded Aug. 28, 1627.
7. Andrew, probably born in 1627. He married Eliz-
abeth Bowdon, at Dartmouth, July 4, 1648. They re-
moved to Stepney, a suburb of London. It would appear
that after a few years he went to America, where he died
in the early part of the year 3?659. It is probable that
his wife and children remained at Stepney. In the Lon-
don records we find that Edmond Pike was appointed
curator, Aug. 1, 1659, "to Sarah, Margaret and James
Harwood, minors, children of Andrew Harwood, late in
ye Virginia, [New England was a part of Virginia, in
early colonial times] in parts beyond ye seas, deceased,"
and Dec. 12, 1659, administration was granted to Eliza-
beth Harwood, "relict of Andrew Harwood, of Stepney,
but in parts bevond ye seas, deceased." From the infor-
mation we possess it would look as if Andrew visited

America with a view of later bringing his familv there,
but died before carrying out his plan.
8. Hannah, baptized Jan. 17, 1629.
9. Samuel, baptized Oct, 7, 1632, died Sept. 1633.
(In the above list of Andrew Harwood's children, it is
not at all certain that I have them arranged in the exact
order of their ages. )
Third Generation.
Children of Nicholas Harwood, No. 4-. All born in
Dartmouth, England.
10. Joanna, bap. Nov. 13, 1640, died March, 1645.
11. Maria, bap. Nov. 27, 1642.
12. Nicholas, bap. Nov. 23, 1646.

Children of Andrew Harwood, No. 7. All born proba-
bly at Stepney, England.
14. Sarah, mentioned as a minor in 1659.
15. Margaret, a minor in 1659.
16. James, born probably about 1655. He came early
to Boston, Mass. He entered the Colonial army in King
Philip's war, and served in Capt. William Turner's com-
pany. On the 19th of May, 1676, occurred what has
since been known as Falls Fight on the Connecticut River.
Capt. Turner with his men surprised the Indians in the
early morning at a place of swift water, where they were
camped for the purpose of fishing, and in the fight which
followed between two and three hundred Indians were
slain. James Harwood 's residence is given at this time
as at Chelmsford, Mass. He married Lydia Barrett,
daughter of John and Sarah Barrett, at Chelmsford, Apr.
11, 1678. She was born in Chelmsford, Sept. 22, 1659.
John Barrett was the eldest son of Thomas Barrett, who
came from England to America, about 1635, and settled
at Braintree, Mass., and later lived in Chelmsford. John
THIRD GENERATION. 29
was born in England, died at Chelmsford, 1706. He was
a soldier in King Philip's war.
Mr. and Mrs. James Harwood continued to reside in
Chelmsford until about 1717, when they removed to Lit-
tleton, Mass. We learn from an old record that "James
Harwood, of Littleton, tray-maker, gave Apr. 3, 1719, a
quit-claim deed to Jonathan Prescott, Jr., of Concord, to
land said Harwood had in Littleton by virtue of a grant
from the General Court." This grant of land was doubt-
less what had led the family to settle in Littleton. Mr.
Harwood died Aug. 1, 1719.
Fourth Generation.
Children of James Harwood, No. 16. All born in
Chelmsford, Mass.
17. Andrew, born Sept. 2, 1692. He probably died
young.
18. Abigail, twin sister to Andrew, died Sept. 1, 1695.
19. James, born Sept. 30, 1695. He removed with his
father to Littleton, Mass., in 1717. We find in the records
at East Cambridge, Mass., that the " Littleton Commit-
tee," consisting of Eleazur Lawrence, of Groton, Isaac
Powers, of Littleton, and Jonathan Prescott, of Concord,
deeded to James Harwood in 1717, "upland which
bounded on Groton line." He also bought land in
"Sandv Meadow." In 1722, James Harwood, of Little-
ton, sold to Isaac Powers, of the same town, "all my
labor done by me on a certain place lying and being near
the meeting house and adjoining the Pound, and all right
to the same, by virtue of Court's Grant to those who
were settled at the time of the Court's Grant." In 1727,
James Harwood and wife Lydia, and brother John, sold
their land in Littleton to Samuel Barrett, Jr., of Little-
ton: " Fifty acres of land, upland and lowland, beginning
at the tree standing in Groton bounds; also, land in
Sandy Meadow." "Consideration £160." On the part
of Mrs. Harwood, the deed reads: "And Lydia Har-
wood, the wife of me the said James Harwood, doth by
these presents, freely, Willing give, yield up, and Surren-
FOURTH GENERATION. 31
der all her Rights of Dowry and power of thirds in and
unto the above said Samuel Barrett, his Heirs and As-
signs." In 1731, James Harwood was living and owned
a farm in that part of Groton, Mass., that is now in the
town of Harvard. In 1735, the General Court of Massa-
chusetts acknowledged the perilous service rendered bv
the men engaged in Falls Fight, by granting a township
of land to the survivors of the fight and to the descendants
of those who had died. This township located at the
place of the fight was first called Fallstown, but is now
Bernardston, Mass. In the case of those who had died,
the eldest son living was entitled to a portion of land.
The lot in our family falling to James, he in May, 1737,
drew lot No. 44-, First Division. ( His residence at this
time is given as Concord, Mass.) He did not however,
settle upon the land he had drawn, but was soon after
living in Groton— if indeed he had not all along been a res-
ident of Groton after selling his land in Litleton, in 1727.
The conditions of the grant above mentioned required
that at least sixty families should settle in the new town-
ship within tour years after the grant was made. Accord-
ingly, in 1739, an effort was made to fill up the number.
Some of the absent proprietors responded to the call;
others, rather than go, chose to pay 22 pounds each,
which went towards making improvements in the new
town. Our ancestor was of the latter number. March
18, 1739, he sold his right to the land he had drawn in
Fallstown. Abstract of deed: "James Harwood, Gro-
ton, Husbandman, to Thomas Reed, Westford, Gentleman:
One Right granted recently to officers and soldiers in the
fight with the Indians at the Falls. This Right to my
honored father, James Harwood, who was one of the sol-
diers, and I being the son and heir of said James Har-
wood, deceased." "Deed passed Mar. IS, 1739. Ac-
knowledged July 17, 1740. Recorded Dec. 16, 1740.
32 GENEALOGICAL HISTORY.
Witnessed by Eunice Harwood and Moses Whitney."
Soon after this, James Harwood settled in that part of
the old township of Dunstable which is now Nashua,
N. H. In 174-7, we find his name in a list of those, against
settling the Rev. Samuel Bird as pastor in Dunstable.
Again, in 1754, we find his name attached to a petition
for dividing the Province of New Hampshire into coun-
ties.
20. John, twin brother to James, died in infancy.
21. Abigail, born May 18, 1699.
22. John, born May 27, 1703. As we have already
noted, he signed the deed with his brother James when
thev sold their land in Littleton, in 1727. A year or two
later, he married Mary Powers, who belonged to one of
the early families of Littleton, and some members of which
became large landowners in Lambstown (Hardwick),
Mass., and were among the early settlers there. (The fa-
mous sculptor, Hiram Powers, was descended from the
same line). Mr. and Mrs. Harwood were livingin Lambs-
town as early as 1735, or earlier. That part of Massa-
chusetts was then a new country, just beginning to be
settled, and in the running of the line between Massa-
chusetts and Connecticut it had received the name of the
"Manor of Peace." We have records of many business
transactions in which Mr. Harwood was concerned. Dec.
9, 1736, he sold to Joseph Allen, of Lambstown, one hun-
dred acres of land. Nov. 3, 1737, he sold to Timothy Rug-
gles, of Plymouth County, Mass., "one-half of 10th lott,
in 9th range from ye River, being originally TweicheH's
draught, and was a settler's lott." Jan. 3, 1737, he sold
35 acres to David White, of Lambstown, "being a part of
Lot 17, 2nd range, west of Ware River." Apr. 11, 1739,
Mr. Harwood purchased of Eben Holden, of Lambstown,
land in Ouabbin (Greenwich), Mass. "Consideration
£21." In 1739, he purchased one hundred acres of Na-

thaniel Kellogg, of Hadley, Mass. In 1742, "John Har-
wood, of Quabbin, conveyed to Samuel Owen, sixty
acres," "where I, John Harwood, now dwell." Consid-
eration £450. From this latter record, it seems that Mr.
Harwood had now with his family moved into present
Greenwich. Jan. 17, 1751, Nathan Fiske, of Quabbin,
conveyed to John Harwood, of the Manor of Peace,
Hampshire County, 50 acres in Quabbin, consideration
£40. July 23, 1752, John Harwood, of " Ware River Pre-
cinct, Husbandman," mortgaged 152 acres of "land in
Ware, where I now live," to John Merritt, merchant of
Providence, R. I. " This property adjoins the Greenwich
town line." About 1740, John Harwood, of Quabbin,
was having financial troubles. There were land sharks in
those days, as in later times, and many records are extant
of the trials John and some of his neighbors suffered from
them. It was a constant struggle with law suits and
debts from 1740 to 1757, then the writ of ejectment came.
Not until about 1759, were these troubles finallv settled.
Fifth Generation.
Children of James Harwood, No. 19.
23. Andrew, born in Littleton, Mass., July 5, 1722.
24. Eunice, born in Littleton, March 21, 1724. She
was one of the witnesses to the deed her father gave Mr.
Reed, in 1739. She married, probably, Benjamin Dayis,
and after 1750, they lived in Amherst, N. H.
25. Mary, born in Littleton, June 6, 1726.
26. John, born probably in Groton, Mass., between
the years 1728 and 1734. His early manhood was spent
in Dunstable, N. H. He was one of the signers of the peti-
tion, in 1754, for dividing the Province of New Hampshire
into counties. He enlisted from Dunstable to serve in the
old French and Indian war. His name is on a "Muster
Roll of the troops employed in his Majesty's service on
the Merrymac River, in 1754, under command of Col.
Joseph Blanchard, and by him posted under proper offi-
cers agreeable to his Excellency's orders." He served in
the same regiment in 1755. Later on he served in one of
the famous companies of Rangers under Major Robert
Rogers, which were made up largely of New Hampshire
men and rendered most effective service on the English
side in that long struggle with the French for supremacy
in North America. As early as 1760, John Harwood was
living in Amherst, N. H. I have no record of his first wife,
only that she died leaving one child— a daughter. About
1766, he married Abigail Hastings, daughter of William
1132112
FIFTH GENERATION- 35
and Ruth ( Grimes I Hastings, of Amherst, and they set-
tled on a farm in that part of Amherst, which many years
after (in 1804), was formed into the town of Mont Ver-
non. Air. Harwood died about 1812.
27. James, born about 1736, probably at Groton,
Mass. When a mere child his parents removed to Dun-
stable, N. H., and he grew up inured to all the hardships
and privations of early pioneer life in New England. In
1754, he signed the petition for dividing the Province of
New Hampshire into counties. ( His name appears on this
paper as "James Harwood, Jr.") He early entered the
service of his country as a soldier— a life that he followed
ever afterwards as opportunity offered. His first service
was in Capt. James Todd's company, Col. Peter Oilman's
regiment, which was raised to reinforce the expedition of
1755, against Crown Point, then the place from which for
many years the Indians in the French interest had been
fitted out to raid the English settlements on the frontiers.
His enlistment in this service bears date Sept. 22, 1755,
and his discharge Dec. 1st, of the same year. His next
service was in one of the famous companies of Rogers'
Rangers with his brother, John Harwood. Mr. Fox, in
his History of Dunstable, says of John and James Har-
wood and other Dunstable men: " They were out during
the war." The next record we have of James Harwood
is his enlistment March 18, 1760, in Capt. Nehemiah
Lovewell's company, Col. John Goffe's regiment. This
regiment of 800 men rendezvoused at Litchfield (on the
opposite side of the Merrimac River from Dunstable), and
marched to Charleston; then cutting a road through the
wilderness 26 miles to the Green Mountains, thence to
Crown Point, and from there they followed the road cut
by the Rangers the previous year into Canada. Air.
Fox says of this company and regiment: "Col. Goffe's
destination was Crown Point and Canada. A select com-
36 GENEALOGICAL HISTORY.
pany of Rangers was formed from the regiment and the
command given to Capt. Nehemiah Lovewell of this town."
Mr. Fox further says of Col. Goil'e's regiment: "They were
present at the capture of St. John's, Chamblee, .Montreal
and Quebec, which wrested all Canada from France, and
put an end to the war." Our ancestor's service, then in
the old French and Indian war covered a period of five
vears. The beginning of the Revolutionary contest found
him as ready to risk his life in the cause of the American
Colonies as he had been to fight the battles of the Mother
Country. He was already enrolled in Capt. William
Walker's company, Col. James Reed's regiment, having
enlisted as a "Minute Man," May 2, 1775, when the
news flew from town to town throughout all New Eng-
land that blood had been shed at Lexington. The New
Hampshire men needed no second invitation. Capt. Wal-
ker's company, made up of oue-half the able bodied men
of Dunstable, hastened to the scene of conflict, and at
Bunker Hill " they lought with great bravery." After the
battle the New Hampshire troops under Cols. Stark and
Reed remained stationed during the summer and autumn
of 1775, at Winter Hill near Boston. The next year,
1776, James Harwood with other Dunstable men served
in Capt. Daniel Wilkins' company, Col. Timothy Bedell's
regiment, which was formed to defend the frontier, and
was stationed for a time in a fort called "The Cedars," at
Isle Aux Noix, in Canada. April 7, 1777, James Har-
wood, enlisted for three years in the First New Hampshire
Regiment, under the command of Col. Joseph Cilley, in the
company of Capt. Amos Emerson. The description of
James Harwood at this time was: "Residence, Dun-
stable; age, +0 years; height, 6 feet; complexion, hair and
eyes, dark." During the months of May and June Col.
Cilley's regiment was at and in the vicinity of Ticonde-
roga. Burgoyne with his large and well equipped army
FIFTH GENERATION. 37
had marched down from Quebec with the avowed purpose
of opening a communication between New York City and
Canada, and thus cut off New England from the other
colonies, and crush the efforts of the Americans to obtain
their independence. For a time the British pursued the
Americans hither and thither— they were driven out of
Ticonderoga, made a stand at Hubbardton, Vt.,but were
defeated with terrible loss and the survivors of their lit-
tle army scattered and disheartened. It was on this re-
treat that our ancestor, James Harwood, became separa-
ted from his company, and was reported "missing"— some
records give it that he was killed. He had yet, however,
to take brave part in several battles for his country be-
fore his lifework should be completed. Bennington is
ahead, and the defeated and scattered Americans are
rallying again to their standards; Gen. Burgoyne is to be
taught a bitter lesson— one which will prepare him for his
complete overthrow at Saratoga. Old soldiers like our
ancestor, who had seen nearly eight years (in both wars)
of terrible warfare, were there; their sons, boys of 16 to 18
years, were standing shoulder to shoulder with their sires;
but an even more inspiring sight were the Vermont far-
mers, ununitbrmed, some of them scarcely armed except
with pitchforks and other rude weapons, come out to
fight a powerful and disciplined foe. But these invaders
were hirelings with no great cause to defend; the men
who opposed them had everything at stake, their homes,
their wives and children, their lives. No one need ask,
who won at Bennington? Then came good news from
Fort Schuyler, followed by the still greater victory for the
Americans at Stillwater. This last fight was on the 19th
of September, and Oct. 7th was fought the battle of Sara-
toga, in which the Americans were completelv victorious,
and pressing from all sides on their enemy, Burgovne with
his atmv was compelled to surrender ten davs later. Col.
38 GENEALOGICAL HISTORY.
Cillev's regiment took a valiant part in the battles of Still-
water and Saratoga — no regiment did more effective fight-
ing. An Englishman, Sir Edw'd Creasy, in his book publish-
ed in London, 1851, entitled the "Fifteen Decisive Battles
of the World, from Marathon to Waterloo," singles out
the battle of Saratoga as one of the fifteen. Surely those
whose ancestors took brave part in this battle must feel
a just pride in the fact. The battle over, the American
soldiers hastened southward to aid their sorely pressed
compatriots who were under the immediate command of
Washington. They reached White Marsh, thirteen miles
from Philadelphia, Nov. 21, 1777. And here our ancestor
reached the end of his earthly career, dying in the army,
tradition says of small pox, Dec. 1, 1777. He was a
good soldier, a loyal patriot, and every inch a man.
James Harwood married about 1757, Mary Clogston,
a daughter of John and Miranda (Glasford) Clogston,
whose marriage July 10, 1740, by the Rector of King's
Chapel, Boston is recorded in the records of that church.
Miranda Glasford was a daughter of John Glasford, who
seems first to have settled in Boston, and afterwards
lived in Leicester and Palmer, Mass. John and Miranda
Clogston resided in Dunstable, N. H , where he died about
1787. The Clogstons were a well-to-do family in Dun-
stable, and while they owned at one time colored slaves,
they became early "abolitionists," as witness the follow-
ing curious and interesting document, which is still pre-
served in the Hillsborough County Registry of Deeds,
Nashua, N. EL, Vol. 3, page 630: "Know all men by
these presents that I, John Clogston, of Dunstable, in the
County of Hillsborough, in the Province of New Hamp-
shire, Husbandman, for and in the consideration of Ten

slaves or servants when they arrive at the age of thirty
years; and in case she pavs to me or my heirs ten pounds
more that they shall be free at the age of 21 years. The
three thildren made free as above are Obed, Flora and
Kate; and I do hereby further agree that all the other
childreu which she shall have while she is my servant be
free from me and my heirs so soon as they are born, in
case I am free from the charge of bringing them up. In

Signed, sealed and delivered in presence of Esther Clog-
ston and Jonathan Lovewell, By John Clogston and wife.
Acknowledged before Robert Fletcher, J. P., July 7, 1774,
and recorded Apr. 4, 1775." In another paper executed
later, John Clogston makes further provision for Fan
Dickerson and her children, which shows him to have
been a very generous and humane man. The Clogston
and Glasford families were both of Scotch origin, some of
their descendants claiming that they came, one or both,
direct from Scotland to New England; others, that they
came here from the North of Ireland. Certain it is that in
the Probate and Surrogate offices of Edinburg, Glascow
and St. Andrew, Scotland, the names Clogston and Glas-
ford appear frequently and in very old records, thus prov-
ing their Scottish origin.
It is evident that Mrs. James Harwood was a very
capable woman. The care and burden of rearing her chil-
dren must have fallen largely upon her, her husband being
so much of the time absent from home in the army, and
she was still a young woman at the time of his death.
We find her name with her husband's attached to a
deed of 48 acres of land, sold to his brother, John Har-
wood, and his brother-in-law, Benjamin Davis, of Am-
herst, N. H., May 16, 1774. This land was part of a
tract that had once been owned bv "The Ancient and
40 GENEALOGICAL HISTORY.
Honorable Artillery Company of" Boston," and included
much of what is now the present city of Nashua. Fol-
lowing is an abstract of the deed: "James Harwood, of
Dunstable, N. H., Yeoman. Consideration, £50, lawful
money. To Benjamin Davis and John Harwood, of Am-
herst, N. H. Land in Dunstable. Being part of the Ar-
tillery farms, contains about 48 acres. Mary Harwood

teenth year of his Majestie's reign, A. D., 1774. In pres-
ence of Amos Fiske and Joshua Atherton. Acknowledged
before J. Atherton, J. P. Recorded Sept. 29, 1774." Hills-
borough County Registry of Deeds, Nashua, Vol. 3, page
260. In vhe records of Dunstable we find this reference to
Mrs. Harwood: " March 5, 1781, Voted that Mary Har-
wood. be allowed 7. 8. for what the town was benefitted
by her late husband in the war," Nov. 9, 1785, Mrs.
Mary Harwood married Isaac Foote of Wearetown, N.
H. He was a widower, a little older than herself, and
like her first husband had seen much service in both the
French and Indian and the Revolutionary wars. She lived
to the great age of 99 years. A brother of Mrs Har-
wood, Paul Clogston, of Dunstable, served at the begin-
ning of the Revolution in the same company and regiment
with James Harwood. He was wounded at Bunker Hill,
and died from his wounds about a month later, July 15,
1775. Another brother, John Clogston, Jr., born 1741,
married at Londonderry, N. H., a young widow, Mrs.
Anna Glasford, and was one of the first settlers in Goffs-
town, N. H., where they reared six children. He also
served for a time in Capt. William Walker's company in
the Revolution. The Esther Clogston who witnessed the
deed of freedom given by Mr. and Mrs. John Clogston to
their slaves, was very probably their daughter and sister
to Mrs. Harwood. The Clogstons have been a very re-
spectable family in New England, and some of the family

his father and his older brother were of that glorious
band under General Stark who met the British and Hes-
sians at Bennington and completely routed them. At the
time of his enlistment, Mr. Harwood's residence was

46 GENEALOGICAL HISTORY.
44. Archibald, born in 1762. There is a tradition
that he served in the Revolution at the age of sixteen
years as a substitute, but I have found no records of such
service. He enlisted July 6, 1780, in Col. William Bar-
ron's company, Col. Moses Nichols' regiment, for the de-
fense of West Point, and was one of those who were sold
(but not delivered) to the British by the traitor Arnold.
He used often to relate to his children how Washington
addressed the soldiers after Arnold's treachery became
known. Sept. 17, 1781, he enlisted for three months in
the Fifth Regiment of Militia from Dunstable. We find
this document:—
"Dunstable, Sept. 17, 1781.
We, the subscribers, do Inlist ourselves as Soldiers to
serve three months from the Day of Rondezvous, and Do
Promise obedience to the officers set over us, and be sub-
ject to the Rules and Regulations of the Army.
Ephriam Bowers,
Archibald Harwood."
This service was in Capt. John Mills' company, Col.
Daniel Reynolds' regiment. Although Mr. Harwood ren-
dered his country such faithful service, he never in his old
age applied for a pension, being naturally of a very inde-
pendent disposition.
At the close of the war, he went to Springfield, Vt., where
he married Susannah House, May 8, 1786. She was
born in 1762, and was a daughter of Combes and Pru-
dence House. Combes House was descended in a direct
line from Samuel House, who came from England and set-
tled in Scituate, Mass., in 1634. The mother of Combes
House was a daughter of Anthony Combes, a French
Protestant, born in France in 1656, and came to America
in 1675. He settled in Massachusetts. Combes House
purchased land in Springfield, Vt., Aug. 18, 1773, and
continued to reside in that town until his death some
SIXTH GENERATION. 47
twenty years later. In Feb., 1794, Archibald and Susan-
nah Harwood, then of Weathersfield, Vt., conveyed to
others their interest in the Combes House estate. In
March, 1794, David House conveyed his share of his
father's estate to his sister, Susannah Harwood. In May,
1805, Archibald and Susannah Harwood " quit-claimed
their interest in the real estate ot Combes House, late of
Springfield, deceased, now belonging to Prudence House,
widow of Combes," to Eleazer Sartwell. Archibald Har-
wood purchased ten acres of land in Weathersfield in
1792; thirty acres in 179G; twenty -five acres in 1799;
and sold all three pieces to Luke Nichols, of Weathersfield,
Oct. 4, 1S00. Mr. Harwood was by trade a carpenter
and mill wright. He removed to Eden, Vt., in 1802, and
built the first mills ever erected in that town. In March,
1802, he was elected treasurer and constable in the town
of Eden. In 1804, he was elected lister. In 1806, he was
again elected constable. The records of deeds show sev-
eral transfers of real estate by and to Mr. Harwood in
Eden, from Oct. 10, 1S02, until April 6, 1814. He re-
moved from Eden to Constable, Franklin Countv, X. Y.,
and there built and owned mills. He died in Eden, in
1837. His wife in 1848. Her last years were spent with
her daughter, Mrs. Phila Adams, in Eden. She was a
professing Christian and a very excellent woman.
45. Rosannah, married John Burlixgame, son of
Capt. Israel and Eunice Burhngame, at Weathersfield,
Vt., where they made their home. In 1807, Mr. Burhn-
game purchased property in Eden, Vt., from his brother-
in-law, Archibald Harwood, but there is nothing to show
that he ever resided in Eden. He died in Weathersfield,
Feb. 18, 1813, aged about 49 years. He left property in-
ventoried at $2,801.94, which was distributed as follows:
"To Rosanna, widow; sons, Russell, Barton and Ira;

died at Moore, Wash., November 3, 1910; and Rosamond,
bom October 25, 1861, died March 8, 1883. Her death
was most sad. The Cambridge Apartment, New York
City, was destroyed by fire March 8, 1883, the Wakeman
family being occupants. Mr. Wakeman was in Albany at
the time. Rosamond after saving the life of the old family
nurse, learned that her mother had not escaped. She at
once returned into the flames to assist her and both were
burned to death. Speaking of this awful tragedy, the
New York Evening Telegram said: "In all the tales of
romance and history in which woman is a prominent fig-
ure, there can scarcely be found a more sublime instance
of heroism than that which occurred at the fire in the up-
town apartment house yesterday. The young heroine,
Miss Rosa Wakeman after assisting her aged nurse to es-
cape, returned to save her invalid mother. Finding it a
task beyond her powers, she chose to perish with her
mother rather than abandon her in her extremity. Her
name should be enrolled on the list of heroines far above
many of those of whom the poets have sung and painters
have left the choicest specimens of their art."

215. Hiram, born Jan. 10, 1823, in Eden. It early fell
to his lot, as the eldest son, to assist his widowed mother

elow, daughter of James and Lucretia ( Frank) Bigelow,
of West Bangor, N. Y. She was born in Plattsburgh, N.
Y., September 22, 1825. James Bigelow was born in
Salisbury, Vt., and belonged to the well-known New Eng-
land family of that name whose genealogy has been pub-
lished in a large volume. In early life, Mr. Harwood be-
came a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church. For
forty years he served the Church as classleader. He was a
loval churchman, ever ready to give of his time and means
to the work of the Church, and constant in his attendance
on her services. Mr. Harwood in the management of his
farm and other business was energetic and methodical.
r.s GENEALOGICAL HISTORY.
Of him it could truthfully be said: "He had a place for
everything, and everything in its place." His wife, who
was a teacher before her mairiage, was a most excellent
Christian woman, always ready to do all she could in
every good cause. Mr. Harwood died December 23, 1890,
and his wife September 11, 1906.
216. Oliver, bom July 21, 1824, in Bangor, N. Y.,
where also the rest of the family were born. He died July

217. OLrvER, born Feb. 6, 1826. He married Eliza-
beth Steenberg, daughter of John Steenberg, Septem-
ber 24-, 1850. They removed to Wisconsin, in 1855. He
served in the Union army, enlisting February 10, 1862, in
Co. I, Fifth Regiment Wisconsin Infantry. He joined the
command while it was a part of King's Brigade, and was
soon after transferred to that of Gen. Hancock, which in
March started for Manassas, but the action there being
at an end, returned to Alexandria, and made connection
with the forces of McClellanfor the Peninsular Campaign.
He was in the attack at Lee's Mills, on the Warwick
River, and next in the battle of Williamsburg, and then
with his regiment was in the following named battles:
Fredericksburg, Yorktown, Rappahannock Station, Mine
Run, Antietam and Gettysburg. On the first day's fight
in \.he battle of the Wilderness, he was taken prisoner
May 5, 186-i. He had previously veteranized and taken
a furlough, but on the day mentioned was one of a detail
to guard a train. He was stationed on the extreme left
of the skirmish line, when they were attacked by a rebel
brigade. He was several rods from his comrades, and
being captured he informed the rebels that a strong force
of troops were lying a little back from the stream. Be-
lieving him, they did not advance, and by this ruse he
saved the wagon train, which would otherwise have
fallen into their hands. He was then taken to Oranee
g*
d
EIGHTH GENERATION. 79
Court House, where he was relieved of the most of his per-
sonal possessions, and then he was removed successively
to Gordonsville, Lynchburg and Danville. From the lat-
ter place he was taken to Andersonville, May 23, 1864-.
Here he remained four months, when he was removed to
the prison at Florence, S. C. Late in the following Feb-
ruary, Mr. Harwood was one of a vast throng of ragged,
starving, shivering, hatless, bare-footed, emaciated, filthy,
vermin-covered, and altogether forlorn wretches, which
were marched to Wilmington to be exchanged. It is safe
to conjecture that such another procession will never
again traverse the soil ot this united country. Every rod
of their progress was marked with unparalleled suffering;
gaunt, grim, haggard, every line of every face marked
with the ravages of a privation too miserable to be de-
picted with pen or brush; every form crippled and stoop-
ing under a burden of endurance too bitter even to re-call
with patience. Think of this picture, sons and beneficia-
ries of those who made this weary journey, and try to
realize their emotions as they passed into redemption, un-
der the Stars and Stripes, in March 1865. Mr. Har-
wood's health was shattered in a terrible manner. He
had the scurvy so badly that all his teeth fell out and he
never afterwards saw a well day. The hardships to
which he was exposed at Florence were much less than
those at Andersonville, but the prisoners suffered greatly
from cold at Florence. During the winter season, Mr. H.
stated that many men died from lack of ambition and
energv sufficient to move about and take care of them-
selves. Mr. Harwood wa= the first man who did shoe-
making in Andersonville prison For a hammer he had
an iron nut or burr on which he put a stick tor a handle,
and he made lasts from pieces of board. He had previ-
ouslv done some cobbling, but had never learned the
trade. He picked up old shoes which he repaired and
sn GENEALOGICAL HISTORY.
made new ones. For thread he had the ravelings of a
piece of English tent cloth, and he obtained needles which
he made flexible by heating. For pegs he took the heart
of a pine stump and made them one at a time with a case
knife. He had come to the conclusion that he could never
get out of prison and determined to make the best of it;
and he went to work in order to be employed and to earn
something to keep from starving. He was for sometime
the only shoemaker in the stockade, rising earlv in the
morning and working late at night by the light of pine
knots. The money he earned he used for relieving the ne-
cessities of himself and his companions. After awhile
others began to make shoes and it became quite a busi-
ness. His pegging awl and case knife which he brought
from Wisconsin, he had managed to secrete when taken
prisoner, and he carried them from Andersonville to Flor-
ence, where he also carried on the same business. He had
a razor which he carried all the way through and with
which he shaved his fellow prisoners. At Andersonville
he gave from ten to twelve cents a teaspoonful for salt
and one dollar for a quart of flour, and he managed by his
work to get enough to keep himself and two companions
alive. Had he obtained nothing but the regular prison
allowance to eat, he would doubtless have died there. He
once gave a dollar for a pound of salt that had just been
taken from a pork barrel. Sometimes the men who went
out to gather wood would be allowed to bring in an extra
stick for their own use, and they sometimes bought beans
and other food from the citizens and smuggled them into
the prison. A common method was to split a log, make
it hollow, place the provisions inside and fasten it to-
gether with wedges. This was after awhile discovered by
the prison keepers. At Wilmington, Mr. Harwood was
paroled but came down with tvphoid fever and was sick
several weeks, during which time he was taken to An-

napolis, where he came near burning to death in a tent
which took fire. He received a furlough and returned to
Wisconsin. The war closed before his leave of absence ex-
pired, and he did not rejoin his command. After the war
he lived in Waushara County, Wisconsin, for many years
in Plainfield, in that county. He married for his second
wife, August 25, 1867, Mrs. Lucy E. Cummings. He was
formerly a member ot the Methodist Church, but later
with his wife united with the Baptist Church of Plainfield.
He was a member of the G. A. R. organization. Was for
several rears a Justiceof the Peace. He died Oct. 15,1910.

spared manv vears, that your advice maybe a blessing to
us in the future, as it has been in the past. We hope to
live to have many more of these familv re-unions — which
we all so much enjoy." The father then arose and replied
as follows: " Dear children, this has been, a very pleasant
meeting to us, and we unite our wishes with vours for
many more such re-unions. To see our children gathered
together at their home is the greatest pleasure your
mother and I ever expect to enjoy here on earth. It has
been the aim of our lives to set such examples before our
children that they might grow up respected and useful.
We feel to thank you each and every one for the cheerful-
ness with which you have received our instructions, and
wherever we mav have erred, we hope vou mav see the
errors and avoid them and set examples before your chil-
dren worthy of imitation. Children, your parents have
