flowed to Lake Ontario on one side and

children are: Abbie, Bird, Jane, Gansey,
Koric, Edward Bates. Jane Bates' long
life has been a succession of good deeds
and of gracious gifts to others. Among
them is the presentation of a library
to the people of the township of Arling-
ton, near Bangor, Mich., where her
farmstead lies. Jane Bates' advice to the
youngest of the line is to the effect that :
"A kindergarten boy that's smart
Should know his lessons all by heart ;
Should mind his P's and quid his Q's
And never mix his V's and U's ;
Should see the stars on evenings clear
That are so large, so bright, so near,
And watch the moon take on her horns
These lovely late October morns.
In fact should use his big brown eyes
To view the earth, the trees, the skies.
So when he's seventy or more he'll have
Of learning quite a store
And be as young of heart and brain
As though he were but five again."

American Genealogies
This is a list of the genealogies of American families, published in book or
pamphlet form, with date of publication. Most of these works that are of early
date are now very rare. Copies of them are in most public libraries in the
larger cities of the United States and in the libraries of historical societies.
Copies also find their way in very small number into book auction sales and
into the hands of dealers in second-hand books. Genealogies of recent date are
generally procurable from the publishers. Inquiries in regard to these or any
other genealogical works may be addressed to the editor of Genealogy.

Standish
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
Who was Lydia Standish, who mar-
ried John Belden, of Wethersfield,
Conn., June 27, 1677? The place of
marriage is not given. Stiles gave her
as a daughter of Thomas Standish, of
Wethersfield, but the name Lydia is not
upon the Wethersfield records while the
other children of Thomas are ; they are
all mentioned in his will, but there is no
mention of Lydia. Recent articles in
the Hartford Times seem to disprove
that she was a daughter of Thomas.
Captain Miles Standish had a grand-
daughter Lydia younger than this Lydia.

The Sutherland Family in America
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
By Katherine Scott Gottschalk
The name Southerland, or Sutherland,
with the two ways of spelling appears
among the early families in both the New
England, and the southern states. No
doubt they were related, but have since
grown widely apart.
I
Among the settlers coming over be-
fore the Revolution was a family of
Sutherlands, whose members settled in
Virginia. One of that family was George
Sutherland (1), born in Scotland in
1761. From old deeds, and gifts of land
it seems that he had a brother Samuel
(1), and their father was Saunders
[Sanders, Sandy], Sutherland. George
Sutherland died in 1847. By deed, dated
January 2, 1783, Saunders Sutherland
and Martha, his wife, Samuel, and
George Sutherland's consent given, all
of Fluvanna county, Virginia, convey
land to James Crudsan. See deed book
No. 1, p. 434, Fluvanna county, Va. The
Martha mentioned would be the second
wife of Saunders, and stepmother to
George, and Samuel. She was the
daughter of Samuel Davis of Fluvanna
county, Va.
George Sutherland (1) settled first in
Virginia. Shortly before the Revolution
he moved to Carolina, enlisting from
Caswell county, N. C, in the fall of 1775,
serving as drummer boy for two years
under Captain Henry Dixon, Captain
Tilman Dixon, and Colonel Clarke, in
the First North Carolina Regiment. On
October 5, 1780, he enlisted again, giv-
ing Albermarle county, Va., as his resi-
dence, under Samuel Eddins in the ar-
tillery and served until a short time be-
fore the battle of York, when he was
furloughed on account of disability.
George Sutherland (1) married, first, a
widow named Jane Johnson Shores, Sep-
tember 15, 1791, in Fluvanna county, the
Reverend William Baskett officiating;
he married, second, Mary Herndon,
October 18, 1822, the Reverend Isaac
Tuckadoo officiating. There were no
children by the second marriage. The
children of the first marriage were: 1.
George F., 2. Elizabeth L. (Betsy), 3.
Richard Lee, 4. Thomas.
Samuel Sutherland (1), brother of
George Sutherland (1) married Judith
Foster of Louisa county, Va., on April
3, 1783, in Fluvanna county. They lived
in Louisa county and in Fluvanna.
II
George F. Sutherland (2) died young
and probably unmarried. He was con-
stable in Fluvanna county in 1814.
Elizabeth L. Sutherland, sometimes
mentioned as Betsy Sutherland, married
Madison Bibb, before 1835.
Richard Lee Sutherland (2) was bom
13
14
(Senealog?
February, 1913.
August 8, 1798, in Fluvanna county. He
married, first, Sarah Ann , some
time before 1821. I believe there were
no children by this marriage. In 1826
he married Mary Jane Dickinson of Nel-
son county, Va. She was the daughter
of Thurston James Dickinson and Mary
Martin. After the birth of their oldest
child they moved to Missouri, settling on
a farm seven miles north of Farming-
ton, in St. Francois county. Here they
lived, raising a large family, owning
slaves and prospering. Richard Lee
Sutherland died in 1846, and his widow
died in 1870 at the age of 70 years. They
had the following children: 1. Frances
Ann, married George Evans, and moved
to Crawford county, Mo. ; she was born
in 1833, died in 1867 leaving children,
Richard, William, Laura, and Lizzie.
2. Martha Adeline, born in 1842, married
Mr. Clay; she is living and has children.
3. Mary M., married Clay, was born
January 9, 1830, died December 6, 1899;
a son, Judge J. E. Clay, lives in Farm-
ington. 4. Thurston James, died young.
"5. Eliza Lewis, married Revilo Nichols,
and lived in St. Louis, having one daugh-
ter, Martha, who married Mr. Hall. 6.
Richard Lee, Jr., married Cordelia ,
and left a daughter Ida, who married a
Air. Foster, and has two sons in St.
Louis. 7. Maria Victoria, married Dr.
H. D. Dickinson, a relative, and lived in
West Virginia. 8. Mildred Dickinson
Sutherland, born May 1, 1831, in St.
Francois county, Mo., died in Rolla, Mo ,
May 7, 1864; she was the second wife
of Judge A. Van Warmer, and left four
children as follows: 1. Emma Jane,
Lorn in 1853, died in 1898, married H.
W. Cox, and had two daughters, Kath-
erine, and Lois ; 2. Andrew, married
Nancy Dixon of West Plains, Mo.,
daughter of Dr. J. C. B. Dixon and
Katherine Welsh of Kentucky ; and have
three children. Mrs. Fred. C. Lauwin of
New York city, Dixon Van Wanner o:
West Plains, and Mrs. Russell Cochrane
of Springfield, Mo. : 3. Joseph Lawrence.
married Allie Paydon of West Plains,
Mo., and has five children, Victor, Pay-
don, Allen, Louise and David; 4. Mary
M., married Carmical and has one
son, Andrew Lawrence.
Thomas Sutherland (2), son of George
Sutherland (1), was born in 1804 in
Virginia and died in 1846 in Chillicothe,
Ohio. He married Sarah Jones, who
was of Scotch-Welsh descent, her father
a Jones, her mother a Miss North. They
lived in Bedford county, Va. Thomas
Sutherland and his wife did not believe
in slavery, and this fact caused him to
remove with his family to Ohio. His
children were: 1. George, 2. Martha
Jane, who is Mrs. Parks of South
Charleston, Ohio; 3. Thomas, 4. Eliza-
beth, 5. William, 6. Martin, 7. Ripley,
and 8. Abraham.
Ill
Thomas Sutherland (3), the third
child of Thomas and Sarah (Jones)
Sutherland, was born February 28, 1835,
in Jackson, Ohio. With his father's
family he removed to Chillicothe, Ohio,
but on April 7, 1854, returned to Jack-
son and remained there until his death,
March 16, 1896. He married N. Maria
Pickerel, February 24, 1857, in Jackson,
and the following children were born of
this union: 1. Alice S., wife of the
Honorable David Davis of Cincinnati,
Ohio; 2. Gertrude, wife of Dr. John F.
Morgan of Ft. Collins, Colo. ; 3. Maine
E., wife of A. L. Erwin of Jackson,
Ohio ; 4. Stella, wife of Prof. Frank N.
Tuillan of Ypsilanti, Mich.
Thomas Sutherland (3) was a suc-
cessful business man and banker in Jack-
son, Ohio, being one of the founders of
the Iron Bank in 1873 and its president
at the date of his death. There are no
sons surviving; the name Sutherland
for this branch of that family has died
out.
The records of Fluvanna and Alber-
marle counties show other Sutherlands,
possibly relatives of Saunders, George,
and Thomas, but not sufficient data to
February, 1913.

Mersereau — Harrower
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
Replying to Mersereau query, 393, J.
D. M., December, 1912, evidently Joshua
Mersereau (4) who died in Tioga, Penn.,
January 20, 1857, was the father of John,
James and Theodore Mersereau, and also
of Mrs. Lyman Tremaine, and of Mrs.
Benjamin Harrower. James Mersereau
married and had daughters, amongst
whom was Frances Mersereau who mar-
ried Thomas Berry, and who now is liv-
ing in Elmira, N. Y. Address, Mrs.
Thomas Berry, care J. W. Huston, 102
West Water Street, Elmira, N. Y.
John Mersereau married and his chil-
dren and descendants are living in
Olean, N. Y., and in Manistique, Mich.
The inquirer might succeed in getting
further information by addressing the
postmaster in those places. I regret that
I am not able to give the Christian
names.
Mrs. Lyman Tremaine was the mother
of several children, among them Theo-
dore Tremaine who is now living in
Westfield, Tioga county, Penn., and is
a very aged man and might give some
information. Theodore Tremaine also
has a brother, Julius Tremaine, whose
son, Julius Tremaine, now lives near
Lawrenceville, Tioga county, Penn.
Mrs. Benjamin Harrower was the
mother. of several children, among whom
was Gabriel T. Harrower, who was col-
onel of the one hundred and sixty-first
New York volunteer infantry, during the
civil war. Of this regiment Lewis Dar-
ling, M.D., was the surgeon with rank
of major, and was the grandfather of
the author of these notes. Further in-
formation might be obtained by address-
ing Katherine Harrower or Antoinette
Harrower, Lawrenceville, Penn., as they
are children of Colonel Gabriel T. Har-
rower and his fourth wife Helen (Park-
hurst) Harrower. C. P. D,

Josiah Haines, died May 29, 1838, M
60.
He was a blessing to the saints
To sinners rich and poor;
He was a kind and worthy man
He's gone to be no more.
He kept the faith unto the end
And left the world in peace
He did not for a doctor send
Nor for a hireling priest.
Hannah Haines died April 26, 1828,
M2>9.
Here beneath three marble stones
Sleeps the dust and rests the bones
Of one who lived a Christian life
'Twas Hannah Haines, Josiah's wife.
She was a woman full of truth
And feared God from early youth
And priests and elders did her fight
Because she brought their deeds to
light.
Here lies Phebe, wife of David Ames,
who was a succo-urer of many and
brother Osgood also. She died Oct. 30,
1838, 2E 82.
From the old cemetery at East Derry :
"This monument secretes from sight
the remains of Mrs. Anne Cummings,
Relict of the late Doct. Alexander Cum-
mings. She departed this life Novem-
ber 16, A. D. 1770, in the eighty-sixth
year of her age.
She lived beloved and died lamented
If words and actions indicates the
heart
With saints above she surely has a part
As she lived so she died
Resigned to the Divine will.
Depending on God through his ever
blessed son for a glorious resurrection
and eternal life.
Spectator, be ye also ready.
Miss Dinah Cochran M 84, Died 1819.

And difficult to find
A wife more just and true to trust
There is not left behind."

The Perrys of Virginia
During the last half of the seventeenth
century and the first half of the eigh-
teenth we find Micajah Perry, a man of
great wealth, and his son Richard, en-
gaged in the commission business in the
city of London, England, under the firm
name of Perry & Son. Thomas Lane,
a contemporary of Micajah Perry in the
seventeenth century, was also engaged
in the commission business in the same
city. Many of the colonists in tide-
water Virginia consigned their tobacco
and other produce for market to those
commission merchants in London. It
appears in the inventory of the estate oi
Colonel Jos. Bridger. of Isle of Wight
county, Va., that in 1686 Colonel Bridger
had sent several bills of exchange to
Micajah Perry & Son to be placed to his
credit. In the will of Captain James
Day, of Isle of Wight county, Va., dated
August 10, 1700, and probated January
9, 1701, Captain Day directed that cer-
tain property owned by him in London
be sold by his friends. Micajah Perry,
Thomas Lane and Richard Perry.
Micajah Perry had several brothers,
sisters and other relatives in Virginia.
Peter, Joseph, Henry and Benjamin
Perry were contemporaries in tidewater
Virginia in the latter part of the seven-
teenth century. So were members of
Phillip Perry's family.
Peter Perry, a brother of Micajah
Perry, settled in York county, Va.
Joseph, Henry and Benjamin Perry be-
longed to Phillip Perry's family, and
from these families sprung the Perry
families of North Carolina. A sister of
Peter and Micajah Perry married a Mr.
Lowe, and they had a son, Micajal
Lowe, and three daughters, Susannah,
Johanna and Mary. The names of Su-
sannah and Mary have been family
names in the Perry families for many
generations since. Micajah Lowe and
his wife, Sarah, lived in Charles City
county, Va.. and left issue.
William Edwards, who served in the
house of burgesses, from Surrey county,
Va., in 1707, first married the daughter
of Colonel Benj. Harrison, and after her
death, married, second, the daughter of
Micajah Lowe, leaving several children
by this marriage. Micajah Lowe, in his
will, probated in 1703, refers to his uncle,
Micajah Perry, of London, and appoints
him one of his executors.
During the seventeenth century Mica-
jah Perry was the most conspicuous
merchant in England in supplying the
planters and colonists in Virginia and
North Carolina with goods of all kinds
in exchange for their tobacco and other
products. He was the banker and com-
mission merchant of those people, and
was often the executor of those leaving
large estates. The new settlers had un-
bounded confidence in his ability and
honesty of character. He was a frequent
visitor to the colonies and was well
known there. Often he was sent to
America as the duly commissioned agent
of the crown to advise and negotiate with
the colonists.
Among the largest contributors to the
original endowment of William and
Mary College in Virginia were Micajah
Perry, Thomas Lane and Richard Perry,
each giving fifty pounds for that pur-
pose.
Micajah Perry served as alderman of
the city of London in the latter part of
the seventeenth century and later as
lord mayor of London during the reis:n
of William and Mary. He died in 1721,
and his mercantile business was contin-
ued by his grandsons, Micajah Perry and
Phillip Perry.

Sweet
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
Thomas Sweet, son of Benjamin
Sweet, was born in the "Redstone coun-
try," Pennsylvania, West Augusta dis-
trict, not many miles from Fort Dun-
more, now Pittsburg, about 1760-1765.
In the year 1782 he was a private in
Captain David Reed's company of the
Westmoreland county battalion of Penn-
sylvania militia. This company was in
Colonel Crawford's Sandusky expedi-
tion against the Indians, where Colonel
Crawford was captured and burned at
the stake in the presence of Simon Girtv,
the renegade. Thomas Sweet married in
Pennsylvania in 178 — , Mary Neely. In
1789 the family moved to Mason county,
Ky., now Fleming county, where
Thomas died in 1828.
Thomas and Mary (Neely) Sweet had
children as follows:
I. Benjamin Sweet, born Decem-
ber 25, 1786, an obituary notice says in
Woodford county, Ky., but as that was
the year before the first settlement in
Stockton Station in 1787, it was a mis-
take, as the family of his father moved
in the year 1789. He married Mary A.
Holmes in Fleim'ng countv, Ky., Novem-
ber 20, 1806, moved to Ohio in 1811 and
settled in Champaign county near Urba-
na; died in Middlebury, Champaign
county, Ohio, October 19, 1845 ;
eight children.
II. Samuel Sweet, born in Fleming
county. He went to the Galena lead
mines in southwest Missouri and there
is no further trace of him.
III. Joseph N. Sweet, born in Flem-
ing county, in 1790, was a soldier in the
war of 1812 and lost a leg, received a
land warrant in 1855. He married Mary
Popejov near Washington Court House,
Ohio, August 1, 1816; died in Webster,
Scioto county, Ohio, 1870. Children.
IV. James Sweet, born in Fleming
county, in 1793, married Jane Hughes,
in Fleming county, December 31, 1822;
died near Tilton, Fleming county, in
1873; had children.
V. John Sweet, born in Fleming
county, in 179 — , married in Fleming
county, July 23, 1824, Rosanah Hughes;
died near Tilton ; had children.
VI. Joshua Sweet, born in Fleming
county, married in Fleming county,
March 6, 1822, Hannah Beckner; had
children.
VII. Mary Sweet, born in Fleming
county, married Aquila Jones.
The records of West Augusta court,
held at Fort Dunmore, Penn., dated Feb-
ruary 25, 1775, show that "On motion of
Henry Heath it is Ord that Silas Dexter
Gabriel Cox Richd McMahon Benjamin
Sweet Robt Henderson view the most
convenient way from Ft. Dunmore to
Henry Heath's they being first sworn
and make a report of conveniences and
inconveniences to the next court." An-
drewHeath's plantation was on the left
bank of the Mononcrahela river in what
is now Allegheny county.
In the corporation court of Staunton,
Augusta county, Va., is a book contain-
ing the names of military men of Augus-
ta county of the colonial days and this
shows that William Sweet was a member
of Captain Francis Kirkley's company
in April, 1767; also that Leonard Sweet
was a member of Captain James Tate's
company.
Can any one give the nativity of these
three men, Benjamin, William and Leon-
ard Sweet. Were they descendants of
the Rhode Island or Virginia immigrants
of that name? Can any one give the
exact date of the birth of Thomas Sweet,
who married Mary Neely ; also the date
of his marriage and the name of the
place in Pcnnsvlvania where the Neelv
family lived? [395] R. R. S.

Gladding— Wilmot

Hannah Gladding, born , married
January 3, 1785, in Cheshire, Conn., Eli-

Asa and Sarah (Johnson) Wilmot. Eli-
sha and Hannah (Gladding) Wilmot had
children as follows: 1. Electa Wilmot,
married Tillotson Terrell in 1804, and
they were among the first settlers of
Ridgeville, Ohio, in the Connecticut
Western Reserve, in 1810; 2. Betsey
Wilmot; 3, Ella (or Elihu) Wilmot, mar-
ried Lucretia Blair ; 4, Silas Wilmot, born
October 19, 1790, married Chloe Tyler in
August, 1810, emigrated to Eaton
township, Ohio, Connecticut Western
Reserve, in October, 1810, where they,
with two others, were the first white set-
tlers ; 5. Ebenezer Wilmot, married,
first, Harriet Pardy, and second, Phoebe
Matson; 6. Elisha Johnson Wilmot,
born in 1793, in Wallingford, Conn.,
married Jerusha Bright in June, 1824;
7. Hannah Wilmot, married Elias Root ;
8. Esther Wilmot, married, first, Harry
Blair, and second, Thomas Walden, and
settled early in Portage county, Ohio ;
9. Cleora Wilmot, married Jennings
and settled early in Portage county,
Ohio.
Who were the parents of Hannah
Gladding? Her birth is not recorded
in Cheshire, Conn. None of the names
of her children are Wilmot names, ex-
cept Elisha Johnson. Silas Gladding and
Ebenezer Gladding of Middlesex county,
Conn., are given in the 1790 census.
They were probably related to Hannah
Gladding, as she named two of her chil-
dren Silas and Ebenezer. Who can tell
me anything of their ancestry or of Han-
nah's? Would be glad to correspond
with any one working along Gladding
lines. [402] D. W. S.

[Contributed to Genealogy.]
John Conrad Kemp (Kaempf) and his
three sons. Christian, Gilbert and Frede-
rick, the latter under sixteen years of
age, arrived at the port of Philadelphia
on die ship Samuel, August 17, 1733, and
it is supposed came into Maryland via
Lancaster county, soon thereafter. Con-
rad Kemp, the father, settled in the
neighborhood of tire present town of
New Market, where he subsequently laid
out the village Kemptown, in that vicin-
ity.
Christian Kemp settled south of his
brother Frederick on Ballen^er's Creek,
on the present Point of Rocks road, on
lands in part now opened by the heirs of
Christian Thomas. Gilbert and Frede-
rick Kemp settled northwest of the
Brunner tracts, on lands now operated
by Columbus Kemp, Samuel Miller, and
Mrs. F. T. Lakin.
Ludwig Kemp, son of Christian Kemp,
was a* captain in the brigade commanded
by John Michael Raemer in the Revo-
lution, and served efficiently throughout
the war.
Henry Kemp, son of Ludwig, served
several terms in the legislature, and also
was a judge of the orphans court ot

terbein's) Church.
Numerous descendants of Conrad
Kemp and his three sons are living in

Randall
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
Can any one tell me whether Priscilla
Randall, born to Silas and Priscilla
(Simmons) Randall, of Rochester,
Mass., was the same Priscilla Randall
who married Simeon Randall, probably
a relative, in 1786? Rochester had sev-
eral Priscilla Randalls at that time, and
for that reason I have been unsuccess-
ful in tracing the line of my Priscilla
Randall who married Simeon Randall.
Priscilla being a Mayflower name, it
is possible that a Mayflower line may
come in here. I have all the lines of
Simeon Randall. Would be glad to hear
from a Randall-Simmons descendant,
either through the columns of the Hart-
ford, Times, or di recti v to me.

and was this Isaac Hine the Captain
Isaac Hine who served in the Revolu-

of this. I have the names of the chil-

Memoranda of the Clemens Family
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
In the first attempts to construct a
genealogy of the Clemens family in
America, considerable data of a frag-
mentary nature has been gathered for
the first time. Some of this data is
printed here for the benefit of those
members of the family, who heretofore
have been unable to obtain facts regard-
ing their early ancestors prior to the year
1800. Four distinct lines came to Amer-
ica from Germany, from Holland, from
Ireland, and from England respectively.
Those from Ireland and England settled
in New England and Virginia, and those
from Holland and Germany in Pennsyl-
vania and New York. The marriage rec-
ords of Pennsylvania, here given, prior
to 1800, are unusually complete.

Owings and Owens of Maryland
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
The earliest trace of the Owens and
Owings in Maryland is found in the
Jainl records in xAnnapolis. Grants of
land are recorded to Richard Owens in
1654 and to John Owens in 1670.
Samuel Owings, whose name appears
in the earliest record of St. Thomas's
parish, was the son of Richard and Ra-
chel (Beale) Owings, and was born
April 1, 1702, in a little house part stone
and part log, twro rooms below and two
above, located in Green Spring Valley.
This cottage was occupied from 1700
until 1780 by successive generations of
Owings, being enlarged from time to
time. It passed in 1870 into the hands
of the Ashland Iron Company. Samuel
Owings married January 1, 1729, Urath
Romdall, daughter of Thomas and Har-
riett Romdall. Urath was born January
1, 1713, and was married on her six-
teenth birthday. The family record, as
contained in Urath Romdall's birth, is a
model of neatness. It tells not only the
date but also the hour and day of the
week when each of the eleven children
were born. Issue:
Beale, May 19, 1731.
Samuel, August 17, 1733.
Rachel, May 2, 1736.

Urath Owings married Benjamin F.
Lawrence, and Thomas Owings married
Ruth Lawrence.
Samuel Owings, senior, was one of
the commissioners (under the act of the
Assembly in 1742) to select and pur-
chase the site of St. Thomas's church,
He was one of His Majestv's justices.
He died April 6, 1775. ' I. M. S.
Burtner
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
John Burtner was a native of the
township of Clinton, Butler county,
Penn. He had the following children :
Jacob, Philip, William, Daniel, Andrew,
Barbara, born in 1797, died in 1882;

1892; Polly and Christina. The parents
of John Burtner came to Butler county
from Berks county, Penn., late in the
eighteenth century, and settled on two
hundred acres of land, now known as
the Krumpe farm, in Clinton township.
The family is of German origin and its
members were among the organizers of
the German Lutheran church in Saxon-
burg. I want the name of the wife of
John Burtner, dates of birth, marriage
and death about 1828, of John Burtner ;

children by first wife were: Phoebe,
Daniel B., Abigail, Sibyl, Althena, Pris-

Mary Elizabeth, Ricketson and Rebecca
Jane; his children by his second wife
were: Currance Ann, Susan, Emeline

pioneer, as he is the first that I can, with
certainty, connect with this line, but I
am not sure he is the pioneer. However,
as I was obliged to distinguish them in
some way on account of the same names
prevailing in each generation, I called
him the pioneer. Was Isaac (1) related
to Tielman Van Mack, who was in New
Amsterdam in 1658, or to Paulus Van

Marsh
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
I think my Marsh line is as follows,
and if any one can give me anything to
the contrary, or can give any additional
data of these lines, I will appreciate it
very much. The line begins with John
and Sarah Marsh of Boston.
Wanted their dates. They had three
sons in Boston: John, born August 29,
1669; Joseph, born February 3, 1670-1;
Bartholomew, born July 3, 1673. Joseph
Marsh, son of John and Sarah
Marsh, married, in Boston, March 2,
1692-3, Ann Thurogood. Wanted her
dates, parentage and ancestry, and the
full record of their children. Presumably
one of their children was John Marsh,
afterward known as Deacon John Marsh
of Douglas, Mass. He was born August
2, 1696, and died March 25, 1769. He
married, October 6, 1719, Martha Harts-
horn. Wanted, her dates, and her par-
entage and ancestry, and full record of
her children.
Evidently Deacon John and Martha
(Hartshorn) Marsh were the parents of
Joseph Marsh who married in Mendon,
Mass., April 26, 1759, Deborah Staples,
born June 26, 1741, daughter of Abra-
ham Staples, Abraham (3) Sergeant.
Abraham (2), John Staples (1), of Wey-
mouth, Mass., and his third wife, Lydia
White, daughter of Thomas and Deborah
(Read) White. Wanted date of birth
and death of Joseph Marsh, date of death
of Deborah (Staples) Marsh, and a full
record of their children, two only of
whom are recorded in Douglas, Mass. I
have proof that they were the parents of
Chloe Marsh, born in Mendon, Mass.,
April 30, 1768, who married there, Oc-
tober 6, 1786, Seth Darling, born in Men-
don, March 21, 1764, son of Thomas and
Rachel (White) Darling, grandson of
Benjamin and Mehitable (White) Darl-
ing, great grandson of Dennis and Han-
nah (Francis) Darling, all of Mendon,
Mass. Several children of Joseph and
Deborah (Staples) Marsh, as did Seth
and Chloe (Marsh) Darling, moved to
the vicinity of Woodstock and Hartland,
Vermont. Can some one help me with
this line, and give me some more reliable
data. [433] C. P. D.
Cowen and Davis
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
I have some lost people in New York
state, that I wish to find, two generations
back of Robert Cowen, who settled in
Cambridge, N. Y., 1761, or 1763. And
I have been trying to get a certain John
Davis traced back to his New England
home. John Davis left Saratoga, N. Y.,
in 1807. He was there in 1787, and
probably before. [429] L. M. C.

Shipman— Large— Whittlesey
[Contributed to GENEALOGY.]
Regarding the Shipman family, in
which M. O. L. B. [428] is interested, I
can say that Judge L'Hommedieu, the
town clerk of Deep River, Conn., an au-
thority upon families thereabouts be-
lieves that Edward Shipman's second
wife was Mary Anderson. A fact which
throws some light upon the subject, al-
though indirectly, is that while Air. Peck
was town clerk of Lyme (his daughter
married a Thomas Anderson, perhaps re-
lated to Mary), although the records read
Anderson, as do the gravestones, he in-
dexed all entries under Andrus or An-
drews. Three generations of descendants
of Thomas Anderson called themselves
by that name. What reason Mr. Peck
had for this is a mystery.
Edward Shipman and his daughter,
Hannah, settled the estate of John Large
of Haddam in 1691.
John Whittlesey was guardian of
Phebe and John Large, children of John
Large of Haddam. He also bequeathed
to Phebe, 'daughter of my wife,' a chest
belonging to her grandfather Large. His
account book in 1690 contains the en-
tries, "Hannah Larg was born in the
year 1686, in November. John Larg was
born in February, 1690. Hannah Larg
came to life with me June in the year
1697. Martha came to life with me 11th.
day of June 1696." H. W. B.
Cole — Jarvis
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
Hannah Cole was married in Balti-
more county, Md., December 31, 1786,
to Orman Jarvis. The parentage of both
parties is desired. [430.] M. H. S.
(2), William (1), author of New Eng-
land Prospects) ? Also I am looking for
the parentage of Mary Farmer, born in
New Hampshire, between 1690 and 1700.

Inman
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
Can any of the readers of Genealogy
tell me who may be interested in the In-
man family of Rhode Island? I am de-
sirous of obtaining* the maiden name of
Mary, wife of Stephen Inman of
Gloucester and Cumberland. They had
three children, Joseph, born September
23, 1745; Stephen, born April 19, 1750,
and Deborah, born August 16, 1748.
Stephen Inman, the father, died May 19,
1750, and his widow married March 4,
1752, Lieutenant Joseph Strecter of
Wrentham, Mass. I have reason to be-
lieve that Mary's maiden name may have
been Barton, or that she was descended
from that family. Any information of
her or of the parentage of her husband,
Stephen Inman, with date and place of
his birth and marriage, will be accept-
able, and any other information relating
to the Inman family. [432] C. P. D.

Skidmore
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
In the Reynolds-Clements article by E.
M. C. r-421], I assume that the date. "Oc-
tober, 1673, given for marriage of Eliza-
beth Skidmore is meant for 1763. Pre-
sumably the John and Elizabeth Skid-
more alluded to are John (4), who mar-
ried Elizabeth, probably Whitehead and
probably a descendant of Daniel White-
head, born about 1603, died November
16, 1668, age 65, a proprietor of Hemp-
stead, L. I.
If Elizabeth was a daughter of this
couple, it is strange that she is not men-
tioned in the will of her father, probated
November 4, 1782. He mentions his wife,
Elizabeth, son Whitehead (Skidmore),
Phebe, wife of Evert Vanostrand, ^on
Daniel and his children, son Thomas,
granddaughter Phebe Skidmore, remain-
der to be divided among "all my chil-
dren," my daughter Jane Smith, my >on
Whitehead Skidmore, my daughter
Phebe Vannos [sic], my son John Skid-
more, my son Thomas Skidmore and my
son Daniel Skidmore, son Samuel Skid-
more, already dead, his children, "my
granddaughter Phebe is the daughter of
my son Joseph Skidmore." Was Eliza-
beth dead before this date? That would
account for her omission.
John Skidmore was the son of Sam-
uel and Susannah (Samuel died,
1733), he the son of John, born April 11,
1643, died before March 6, 1681, and Su-
sannah , he the son of Thomas.
died, 1684, and Ellen , his second
wife Sarah being mentioned in his will.
Wills of John (2) and Samuel (3) are
in the New York Historical Society Col-
lections, 1892, p. 107, 1894, p. 101. [434.]

LINCOLNIANA
The Boston Evening Transcript (Boston, Massachusetts), for May 7, 1913, presents the
following:
"Lincolniana Book Plates and Collections" is the alluring title of a little volume recently
issued by H. Alfred Fowler, publisher of "The Biblio," of Kansas City, Mo. The book is
the outgrowth of an attempt to describe the book plates bearing portraits of Lincoln or
other appropriate designs associated with his name. The author, however, found the col-
lections of Lincolniana in which these book plates were used of more interest^ than the plates
themselves, and so Charles W. McLellan, Judd Stewart and J. B. Oakleaf have contributed
three delightful little papers on their collections. All are veterans in the field, and it is only
to (be regretted that similar descriptions could not be given of the collections of Hon. Daniel
Fish, J. W. Burton and the late prince of Lincoln collectors, Major W. H. Lambert of
Philadelphia. The accounts of the collections are by no means catalogues; they are frag-
mentary, discursive, written as one talks to a friend about his books — beginning with show-
ing a few things and ending by talking about fellow collectors. It does make one a trifle
envious, however, to find Charles Woodbury McLellan describing some of his Lincoln
autographs thus:
"The earliest specimen of his writing that I obtained was a page of his copybook writ-
ten in 1826, when he was 17 years of age; and from 1838 to 1865, twenty-seven years, I have
something written by him each year excepting the year 1854. Together with these, I have
accumulated quite an interesting collection of letters written to Mr. Lincoln or about him."
Will some kind gentleman who has a Lincoln letter of the date of 1854 send it to Mr.
McLellan? It surely will be appreciated. For, as Judd Stewart writes:
"But, after all, the pleasure of pursuit and acquisition is of no worth compared to the
friendships formed through my collecting. What a pleasure to receive, some morning
when business is all askew, a letter from a 'hated rival,' congratulating one on a new
acquisition, or, as sometimes happens, finding in the mail with the compliments of some
other collector ('hated rival') an item that you want and have despaired of getting!"
And so J. B. Oakleaf writes that the acquaintance he has formed through his hobby
is really worth more to him than his collection. To the new collectors he extends the hand
of Lincoln fellowship, "with my heart in it, knowing that what they do, will not only be
of service to themselves, 'but to the community in which they live, and of benefit to their
friends."
Mr. Fowler's little book should be owned by every Lincoln collector. It has a hand-
somely engraved titlepage with a Lincoln portrait, and the Lincoln bookplates of Judd
Stewart, H. Alfred Fowler and J. B. Oakleaf are used to embellish the text. A blank Lin-
coln bookplate is laid in loosely to be put in the owner's copy. The printing is all that
could be desired.
The volume contains an especially engraved portrait titlepage by A. N. Macdonald, and
especially engraved portrait 'Ex libris Lincolniana' within the cover and upon which the
owner may inscribe his name, an original impression of the Lincolniana bookplate of Mr.
Judd Stewart, and another engraved plate impression as well as other illustrations.
Edition limited to five hundred copies; bound in boards.
Price, $2.50.
Specimen pages will be sent upon application.

Note: Howards of Vermont. Many of

The name very probably was changed
from original spelling because the names

its affairs.

ton, England, in the fall of 1798, having
his parents with him ; they landed at
New York city, and located first near
Ossining, N. Y., where they remained
for two years. Thence they moved on to
Seneca where they remained for five
years. John Garbutt had learned the
trade of a shoemaker in England, so his
first effort in his new home was at the
bench in order to gain a support and to
pay off the borrowed money necessary
to transport himself and parents to the
new world, which he soon accomplished.
In 1805 he made a permanent settlement
on Allen's Creek, now Garbutt, in the
township of Wheatland, N. Y., where
he became a prosperous farmer, and the
hamlet which grew up around him took
his name when he became a man of af-
fairs.
John Garbutt's ability was soon recog-
nized by his fellow citizens. He was
chosen to be surveyor and held many
town offices in turn; was supervisor of
Caledonia in 1820, before the division

(6). She removed from Dalton, Mass.,
with her parents in 1809 and settled near

butt.

N. B.
I wish the following precautions taken
concerning this paper. Leet it be spread
out and pressed smooth between two flat
surfaces so as to take out" the folds in-
tirely. Then let some paste be made
strengthened by a small infusson of glue.
Leet it be brushed over with that paste
and laid neatly on a smoth board. Leav
a little moulding or bead around the edge
of the board, by way of ornament, and
hang it up in your parlor.
Then let your children view it at times
and while they revere the names of their
ancestors, inculcate in them a high and
noble spirit to maintain and perpetuate
the dignity of the family.
I presume that the times of the births
and deaths of my fathers, brothers and
sisters might be ascertained as also the
time of the births of my brothers and
sisters for which I have accordingly left
blanks.

Capt. John Doroney, born August 20,
1753, son of William Doroney, an emi-
grant from Scotland, was in service dur-
ing the Revolution, having enlisted March
14, 1776 in Captain John Nelson's Com-
pany of independent riflemen attached
to Col. D'Hass' first Pennsylvania bat-
talion. Afterward, he was first lieuten-
ant of Captain John Reed's Company,
of the Eighth battalion of Cumberland
county militia; Col. Abram Smith. He
married, first, June 5, 1782, Ruhannah
Stockdale, of Baltimore county, who
died August 11, 1795, leaving three chil-
dren: Edmund, born February 7, 1787;
William, born May 11, 1789; Rebecca,
born September 26, 1791, married

White-Thornton
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
Will someone interested in the Thorn-
ton family, tell me anything concerning
the parentage and ancestry, with dates,
of Mehitable Thornton who married in
Boston, Mass., December, 1687, Thomas
White. He evidently was the son of
Captain Joseph and Lydia (Rogers)
White, and a grandson of the first
Thomas White of Weymouth, Mass. My
ancestress Mehitable (White) Darling,
wife of Benjamin Darling of Mendon,
Mass., was a daughter of Thomas and
Mehitable (Thornton) White of Men-
don, Mass., and I am very anxious to
learn something concerning her Thorn-
ton ancestors, if Mehitable Thornton
proves to be the mother of Mehitable
(White) Darling. Any information on
this point will be very much appreciated.
Mehitable (White) Darling was born
January 22, 1689, in Mendon, Mass., and
married there June 11, 1708, Benjamin
Darling, son of the first Denice and
Hannah (Francis) Darling of Braintree
and Mendon. Wanted also the date and
place of the death of Mehitable (White)
Darling. She must have died before
1760, as Benjamin Darling married sec-
ond in April, 1760, to widow Susannah,
daughter of Benoni Benson, and widow
first of a Mr. Thayer (wanted his name),
and second of Aaron White, son of
Joseph and Prduence (Smith) White.
Wanted also the date and place of the
death of Susannah. C. P. D.
Day-Dumbleton
[Contributed to Gi.nealogy.]
Wanted the names of the parents and
their ancestry, of Mary Dumbleton, who
married July 22, 1697, Samuel Day of
West Springfield, Mass. He was born
May 20, 1671, and died October 19, 1729,
aged fifty-eight. His widow Mary died
May 17, 1759. Wanted the date and
place of her birth. It is said that she
was the daughter of John and Lydia
(Leonard) Dumbleton of Springfield,
Mass., but I would like this verified,
together with the ancestry of both her
father and mother, with a list of the
children, with dates, in each generation
back of and including Alary Dumbleton.

Benson— White — Staples
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
Can anyone interested in the Benson
family of Mention, Mass., tell me
whether Benoni Benson, born in 1724,
son of Benoni and Sarah (Thayer) Ben-
son, married, in 1742, Abigail Staples,
born October 12, 1729, Mendon, Mass.,
daughter of Abraham4 Staples (Abra-
ham3, Abraham2, John1), and first wife
Abigail (Taft) Staples. It is said that
the above Abigail (Staples) Benson had
a son when she was only thirteen years
old, but I have record of this marriage as
(probably occurring in Mendon) Janu-
ary 30, 1752, at which time Abigail
Staples would have been 23 years of
age.
It seems to be claimed by some that
Benoni Benson, Jr^ son of Benoni and
Sarah (Thayer) Benson, married Abi-
gail White, daughter of Joseph and Pru-
dence (Smith) White, of Uxbridge,
Mass., and that after the death of Abi-
gail (White), Benoni Benson, her hus-
band, married 2d to Abigail Staples. If
this is the case, Abigail (White) must
have died before 1752. The above Pru-
dence (Smith) White was the wife of
Joseph4 White, son of Joseph3 (Capt.
Joseph2, Thomas1 White, of Weymouth,
Mass.), and Lydia (Copeland) White,
and after the death of Joseph4 White,
in 1737, Prudence, his widow, married,
in Mendon, Mass., September 3, 1739, to
Benoni Benson, of Mendon, Mass. He
was the son of Joseph2 (wife's name
wanted) Benson, and grandson of John1
and Mary ( ) Benson, of Hingham,
Mass.
Benoni3 Benson, yeoman of Mendon,
Mass., married first (date wanted)
Sarah Thayer, daughter of Josiah and
Sarah (Bass) Thayer, and granddaugh-
ter of Ferdinand Thayer, of Braintree,
Mass. Wanted, dates of this family
and full record of children.
Benoni3 Benson died in 1761, and is
buried in the Chestnut Hill Cemetery,
Mendon, Mass. His widow, Prudence
(Smith) White Benson, made her will
January 14, 1785, in which she bequests
to the heirs of her beloved daughter
Abigail Benson the same amount which
she bequests to her other daughters, Pru-
dence Albee and Rachel Darling. Men-
tions her sons Joseph White, Peter
White, heirs of son Aaron White, de-
ceased, Moses White, Ebenezer White;
also mentions son-in-law, Benoni Benson
to be executor.
The Uxbridge and Mendon records
give the above children to Joseph and
Prudence (Smith) White, and also
Sarah, born November 8, 1724, Men-
don ; who is not mentioned in her
mother's will. What became of her?
The above Aaron White, son of
Joseph and Prudence, was born May
22, 1717, in Mendon, Mass. According
to the Mendon records, he married, De-
cember 15, 1739, Susannah Thayer, of
Mendon, but he is called of Uxbridge.
She was the daughter of Benoni Benson
— Thayer evidently for her first hus-
band- Wanted, r^is name, dates of par-
entage. Susannah married, second,
Aaron White, who died before April 17,
1760, at which time, in Mendon, Mass.,
she married her third husband, Benjamin
Darling, gentleman of Mendon, whose
first wife was Mehitable White, daughter
of Thomas and Mehitable (Thornton)
White, granddaughter of Capt. Joseph
and Lydia (Rogers) White, and great
granddaughter of the first Thomas
White, of Meyenorrh, Mass.
Now, then, Joseph White, husband of
Prudence, died in 1737, and his property
was divided between his widow and
children, Joseph, Peter, Aaron, Moses,
Ebenezer, Abigail, Sarah, Prudence and
Rachel. I have wondered if Sarah did
not die young, as she is not mentioned
in the will of her mother, Prudence
Benson, in 1785, and did above Abigail
White marry Benoni Benson, or did the
widow Prudence (Smith) White Benson,
in speaking of her daughter, Abigail
Benson, mean Abigail (Staples) Benson,
wife of Benoni Benson, Jr.
March, 1914.

In September 18, 1769, the heirs of
Abraham Staples were widow Lydia
(she was Lydia White, daughter of
Thomas (Joseph, Capt. Joseph, Thomas)
and Deborah (Read) White) and chil-
dren Abraham, Nahor, Abigail Benson,
Lydia Holbrook, Thankful Fletcher,
Deborah Marsh, Ruth Craggin, Chloe
Staples.
Could it be that Abigail Staples mar-
ried some other Benson and that Abigail
White married Benoni Benson, Jr., or
did Benoni Benson, Jr., marry these two
Abigails, Abigail White and Abigail
Staples? C. P. D.

to America in 1642. He sailed from
Bristol, England, and settled in Connec-

court held March 2, 1642. He was ad-
mitted freeman in 1643, was a deputy in
1644-45, and represented the town of

Hoffman-Poznanski Estates
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
Mr. Joseph Luria, official investigator
of the above estates, formerly a resident
of Montclair, N. J., now at No. 135
Broadway, Room 1109, New York City,
is seeking the heirs of the following
members of the "Hoffman-Poznanski"
family. One may have assumed the name
"Ooscher" or "Ascher". The "Hoff-
man" are originally from Portugal, then
some went to Bavaria, Germany, from
there to Russian Poland, some going
back to Germany and all parts of the
world, including the U. S. A., some stay-
ing in Russia, where many members of
the family are now:
1. George Hoffman-Poznanski (also
called "Guedaliah," Hebrew name) or
any assumed name, born in a small place
called Briskkujawski, near Wloslavek,
Russian Poland, supposed to have died
in Transvaal, South Africa in 1844.
George was one of the youngest sons of
a certain "Haskell" (meaning Henri)
Hoffman, who went from Bavaria to
Russia. Haskell had nine children, seven
boys and two daughters. George left
his native place when young, after a quar-
rel with his family who disapproved of
his love affair with a Christian girl, whom
he later eventually married, after having
said to have had several children.
He travelled, settled in Bavaria, where
he was a brewer, then emigrated to the
Transvaal and is supposed to have died
there, leaving a large fortune. He is sup-
posed to have left a will, cutting off his
brothers and sisters ; his will was not to
be opened until after fifty years from the
time of his death, the 50 years having
elapsed in 1894. The money was to go
to the descendants of his family; how-
ever, it cannot be paid before all the heirs
can be traced, which Mr. Luria expects
to do.
Abraham, Benjamin, Hyman (in Pie-
brew "Chain"), Rubin, Wolf, Rosie, etc.,
are some of the names of his brothers
and sisters. Some of them kept the orig-
inal name "Hoffman," others, for sep-
cial reasons, changed their name into
"Poznanski," which is equivalent to "Son
of the Posen country." Posen in Polish
means "Poznan."
2. Julius Posner, or Poznanski, who
was a "Hoffman." He may have been
a son of Benjamin, who went to Au-
stralia. Julius went to Africa and Au-
stralia and is supposed to have died there
some few years ago, also leaving a very
large fortune. Some heirs are in this
country (New Jersey, Pennsylvania, etc.)
3. Ephraim Posner, or Poznanski,
who was a Hoffman. Probably a des-
cendent of one of George's brothers; he
is supposed to have died in London, Eng-
land. His heirs must also be in this coun-
try.
4. Moritz Posner, or Poznanski, who
was a Hoffman, of same family. He is
supposed to have died in this country,
leaving a large estate.
Mr. J. Luria, who has advertised ex-
tensively in this country and abroad has
so far received letters from persons
claiming to be heirs, called "Hoffman"
and "Posner or Poznanski," many of
them coming from this country. Some
are Jewish, some are Christians, because
George is supposed to have turned to
Christianity, although his brothers re-
mained Hebrews.
The persons who believe they are in-
terested can write for more information
to Mr. J. Luria, 135 Broadway, Room
1109, New York City.

The Thorn Family in America
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
My great-grandfather, John Thorn,
came to this country sometime before
the Revolutionary war. He was of
Scotch-Irish descent, and a man of
means. He settled near the center of
Guilford Co., North Carolina, and mar-
ried Miss Ellenor Kerr. If I have been
correctly informed, he was accompanied
to this country by a brother, James
Thorn, who settled in Virginia. I know
very little of his family, but I think a
great-grandson of his is Counsel for the
Southern Railway, with headquarters at
Washington, D. C. Before going to
Washington, he was a lawver in Nor-
folk, Va.
Children of John Thorn and Ellenor
Kerr Thorn:
Mary Thorn, born April 30, 1771.
Katherine Thorn, born Dec. 3, 1772.
William Thorn, born Nov. 11, 1774.
David Thorn, born Oct. 1, 1776, and
died Sept. 7, 1825.
James Thorn, born Sept. 4, 1778.
John H. Thorn,' born Sept. 30, 1780,
died April 29, 1847.
Daniel Thorn, born Aug. 4, 1782, died
March 16, 1791.
Samuel Thorn, born Aug. 8, 1784.
Ellenor Thorn, born July 14, 1786.
Ebenezer Thorn, born Nov. 16, 178S.
Daniel Thorn, born Aug. 20, 1791.
Jean Thorn, born Sept. 24, 1793, mar-
ried a Mr. Gorrell; has several great-
grandchildren living in Guilford County.
Daniel Thorn has three daughters and
one son still living in Greensboro, N. C,
Mrs. William Sharp, Mrs. George A.
Smith, Mrs. Lindsay Stewart, and Mr.
James Thorn. I only remember that two

Rogers of Long Island
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
It is known from official records that
William Rogers and his wife, Anna, were
on Long Island, in Southampton and
Huntington in 1648 and after. He died
in Huntington between 1659 and 1667.
Various statements and claims have been
made concerning the earlier history of
this William Rogers. It is asserted that
he was a son of Thomas Rogers of
Plymouth, Mass., who came on the May-
flower in 1620; that he came to Plymouth
several years after his father arrived;
that he went to Wether sfield, Conn., from
Plymouth, and subsequently to Stamford,
Conn., and Hempstead, L. L, before he
finally settled in Southampton ; that he
was not a son of Thomas Rogers, the
Mayflower pilgrim, but of another
Thomas Rogers of England ; that he
came direct to Connecticut from England
and was" never in Plymouth, Mass. ; that
he was never in Connecticut, but came
first to Long Island. In the Connecticut
colony, 1630-1650, there were several of
the name — William Rogers — in Wethers-
field and elsewhere. Recent research
seems to show that this William Rogers
of Long Island did not leave England
until after 1636.
Where then was the William Rogers
of Long Island between 1636 and 1648?
Was he a William Rogers of Connecticut
and if so, which one? There has been
plenty of guess work and assumption
covering these points, but what is now
wanted is reference to authoritative rec-
ords. "Tradition," "say-so," "probably,"
"apparently," without much doubt,"
"grandfather used to say that his grand-
father knew," etc., etc., such evidence is
worse than worthless. Reliable records
are wanted and reliable records only.
Can William Rogers be surely located
anywhere before he was in Southampton
in 1648 and can he be positively identified
with a colonial William Rogers prior to
that date? H. L. W. R.

EARLY VIRGINIA WILLS
Abstracts of Recently Discovered Records
(Transcribed from original sources)
[Contributed to Genealocy.]
By William M. Clemens
The following abstracts of early Virginia wills, have been carefully transcribed
from the records in Lexington, Rockbridge County, Bedford City in Bedford Coun-
ty, 'Manasses in Prince William County, Amherst in Amherst County. Leesburg in
Loudoun County, and Rustburg in Campbell County, Virginia.
Prince William County was established in 1730, being taken from King
George and Stafford Counties. Bedford County was established in 1753, being
taken from Lunenburg County. Loudoun County was established in 1757, being
taken from Fairfax County. Amherst County was established in 1761. Rock-
bridge County was established in 1778, being taken from Augusta County. Camp-
bell County was established in 1784, being taken from Bedford County.
In many of the Virginia counties the court houses were destroyed by fire dur-
ing the Civil War and the county records were destroyed, either in whole or in
part. In Leesburg, Loudoun County, one will book is missing and in Prince William
County four books, covering a period of twenty years, are nowhere to be found. In
Rockingham County there are neither wills nor deeds prior to 1865, but here I
found marriage records and fee books as early as 1774 in a forgotten corner.
In the following alphabetical list of early Virginia wills, a chronological order
is preserved in order to show descent or generation, and particular care has been
taken to follow the quaint, original spelling of surnames as well as forenames,
occurring in the original records.

Some New England Queries
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
1. William Stark of Stonington, Conn.,
born 1664, died 1730, married Elizabeth
. Her maiden name and parent-
age wanted.
2. Aaron Stark, born 1608, died 1685,
of Stonington, Conn., or vicinity, had
supposedly sons Aaron, John and Wil-
liam and daughters, Margaret and Eliza-
beth. Any information about Aaron's
wife, or the wives or husbands of his
children is desired.
3. David Cary, son of John, of Bridge-
water, Mass., moved to Bristol, R. I., and
there married, Dec. 1687, Elizabeth. Her
surname and parentage wanted. Their
children were baptized at the Church of
Christ, Bristol.
4. Daniel Pearce of Prudence Island,
R. I., was twice married. First wife un-
known, second wife, whom he married,
Dec. 13, 1703, Elizabeth Tucker or Tabor
of same place. All information about
both these wives desired.
5. Nicholas Spink of North Kingston,
R. I., died 1733. Married (1) Abigail,
(2) Sarah. Maiden names of these wives
desired.
6. Who was the wife of Nathan Bird-
sail of Salem, Mass., and Easthampton,
and Oysterbay, L. L, died about 1698.
She may have been related to the Mrs.
Joshua Garlick of Easthampton, who was
tried for witchcraft in 1657.
7. Who was the Rebecca Elwell, who
married John Birdsall of Pawling, N. Y.?
She died at Harpersfield, N. Y., Oct. 15,
1806, in her 69th year.
8. Reuben Reynolds, who died Aug. 3,
1819, had sons James, born 1771, and
Israel, born 1782, both of whom are first
heard of at Kortright, Delaware Co.,
N. Y. Who is this Reuben? He un-
doubtedly belonged to the Greenwich,
Conn, family. Whom did he marry, and
what other children did he have? Any
information regarding him is much de-
sired. Also any information regarding a
Reuben Reynolds of Chatham, N. Y.,
born March 14, 1734-5, at Greenwich,
who married Hedzibah , of New
Rochelle, N. Y. They had a son Andrew,
born 1764, who was an early settler of
Kortright. This is Reuben's only known
child, but I believe him to be the Reu-
ben, father of James and Israel, who died
1819. I should be very grateful for any
clue to this family.
9. Eliab Wilcox, born 1732, married
Jerusha Spencer, born 1735. He and his
wife joined the Baptist church at South
Dover, Duchess Co., N. Y., in 1758.
Eliab was probably a brother of Elizabeth
Wilcox of Dover, and Jerusha, a sister
of Reuben Spencer of Clinton, Duchess
Co., but both these relationships are sur-
mise only. The parentage of both Eliab
and Jerusha are very much desired.
10. Who were the parents of Chloe
Sackett of Amenia, Duchess Co., N. Y.,
who June 22, 1784, married Reuben Wil-
cox of South Dover?
11. Joseph Shaw married before 1792
an Agnes, who was probably related in
some way to Walter and Martha Lock-
wood of Unionville, Duchess Co., N. Y.,
who also lived in New York City. In
1827 the Shaws were living in Yates Co.,
N. Y., where Joseph probably died soon
after. His widow and several of his
children moved to New London, Ohio.
Joseph's only known relative aside from
wife and children was a younger half
brother John, born 1784, who also settled
in Yates Co. Any information about
this Shaw family is greatly desired.
12. Joseph Woodworth, born 1696, at
Little Compton, R. I., married there Oct.
17, 1723, Anna Manchester. Who were
her parents?
13. Two Henry Dyers of Lebanon,
Conn., were married in 1725-1726, one
at Lebanon to Mary Rice, one at Boston
to Hannah Holbrook. One Henry lived
and died in Lebanon, the other after his
marriage lived at Boston, and died there.
Can anyone straighten out these two?
I wish very much to learn the parentage
of each. They probably both belonged to
June, 1914.
(Benealogy
53
the R. L Dyers. I also desire the parent-
age of Mary Rice.
14. Robert Rumsey was at Fairfield,
Conn., in 1664, where he married Rachel
Frost. Who were his parents. Also who
were the wives and husbands of his
children, especially of Robert. They all
lived at or near Fairfield.
15. Information is wanted about the
Patchen family of Fairfield, Conn., and
vicinity. Who was the Mary Hubbard,
who married Jacob Patchen before 1694,
and who probably had first married some
Grumman? Whom did Jacob, son of
Jacob and Mary (Hubbard) Patchen
marry? He was born about 1701. All
marriages of the children of Jacob and
Mary desired.
16. Who were the parents of the
Martha Finch who married Dec. 5, or
30, 1723, Nathan Hubbell. They settled
at Wilton, Conn. She was born about
1701. H. L. S.

ing had the six following children in

sanna (Benson) Thayer White, evident-
ly the widow of same Thayer, also widow

Money in Chancery
The Paymaster of the Supreme Court
of Great Britian has published in a special
supplement to the ''London Gazette" the
statutory triennial list of dormant funds
in the various courts, including Chancery,
King's Bench, Probate and Divorce, and
the King's Remembrancer, as well as the
now extinct courts of Common Pleas and
Exchequer. The supplement runs to
over 200 pages of names alphabetically
indexed, and all funds of not less than
£50 are included. The aggregate
amount of these funds is about £1,250,-
000, distributed over more than 3,800
separate accounts. One-half do not ex-
ceed £150 in value, and only about one-
twentieth exceed £1,000. The list should
be of service to persons desiring informa-
tion as to the origin of a fund in court,
and any such person finding reason to be-
lieve that he may be interested in a par-
ticular case may apply, in writing only,
to the Assistant Paymaster-General,
Royal Courts of Justice, London, who at
his discretion may supply information
as to the amount of the fund and the
date of an order of court known to re-
late to it. This report shows how false
and misleading are the claims often made
in the United States that tnere are mil-
lions in chancery for certain, alleged
great estates, like the Lord Baltimore and
other fabulous legacies.

daughter of John Crowe. He was a sur-
veyor of highways 1687, and was made a
freeman 1658 at Hartford. He bought
land there 1669. His will was proved
Oct. 24, 1689. He first appears at Hart-
ford, March 2, 1653-4, as a minor, and a
servant to Capt. Cullick of Hartford, and
was therefore born after the date 1633.
His second wife was born in 1650. His

Abraham and Abigail. Was he a son of
Abraham Warren of Ipswich, who died
there 1654? John Warren, his son, died
at Hartford, July 31, 1722. He married
Mary , probably about the year
1689 since he bought land that year.
Mary, his wife died 1718. Their daugh-

Early New Jersey Court Records
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
Following is a copy of a document
contained in the record book in the Mon-
mouth county clerk's office at Freehold,
N. J. This book contains the records of
official doings of all kinds in that county
from 1688 to 1721.
Here is a copy of the record :
March 25th, 1701. Monmouth co.
At a Court of Sessions, held for the
county of Monmouth, at Middletowne, in
the county aforesaid, and province of
East New Jersie.
Being present: Coll. Andrew Hamil-
ton, Governor Louis Morris, Samuel
Leonard, Esqrs. of the Governor's Coun-
cil; Jedidiah Allen, Samuel Dennis, Jus-
tices.
The court being opened, one Moses
Butterworth, who was accused of piracie,
and had confessed that he did sail with
Capt. William Kid in his last voyage,
when he came from the East Indies and
went into Boston with him, and was
bound to make his appearance at this
court that he might be examined and dis-
posed of according to his Magisties'
orders, the said Butterworth was called
and made his appearance, and when the
court was examining him one Samuel
Willet in holden said that the Governor
and Justices had no authority to hold
court and he would break it up, and ac-
cordingly went down stairs to a com-
pany of men then in arms and sent up
a drummer, one Thomas Johnson, into
the court, who beat his drum and several
of the company came up with their arms
and clubs which, together with the drum
continually beating, made such a noise
(notwithstanding often proclamations
made to desist and keep the King's
peace) that the court could not examine
the prisoner at the bar, and when there
was, as the Court judged, betwixt thirty
and forty men come up into the court,
some with their arms and some with
clubs, two persons, viz: Benjamin Bor-
den and Richard Borden, attempted to
rescue the prisoner at the bar, and did
take hold on him by the arms and about
the middle and force him from the bar,
the constable and under sheriff, by the
command of the Court, apprehended the
said Borden, upon which the Justices
and King's attorney-general of the prov-
ince then present (after commanding the
King's peace to be kept, and no heed
being given thereto) drew their swords
and' endeavored to retake the prisoners
and apprehend some of the persons con-
cerned in the rescue, but was resisted
and assaulted themselves, and the exam-
ination of the prisoner torne in pieces,
and in the scufle both Richard Borden
and Benjamin Borden were rescued.
But the endeavors of the Court were
not effective in retaking the prisoner, for
he was rescued and carried off and made
his escape, and the people, viz :

King-LeValley
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
Who was Sarah
-, wife of
Peter Le Valley1, the emigrant? When
were they married ,-when and where were
they born and when did she die? Peter
died at Warwich, R. I., 1756.
Their daughter Marie2 married about
1727 a Mr. King, called variously, Mag-
Ion1, Magdalen, Madylane, etc. What
was his true name? He is said to have
been born Aug. 23, 1702. The date of
death on his tombstone resembles 1795
more closely than 1775. I should like
very much the correct dates of their birth,
marriage and death, and the locality.
Their known sons were 1, John; 2, Sam-
uel; born Feb. 1745,, at Warwich, 3,
Paul, born 1751, at Warwich. Samuel's
son Joel (1 787-1 867j) of Pompey, Onon-
daga co., N. Y., was a soldier in 1814 of
the War of 1812. I have this record
which says he was in a N. H. militia. Is
this correct? Why N. H. instead of
N. Y.?
In Mather's Hist, of the Refugees of
L. I. 1776, he mentions a William, Samuel
and a Joel King. Will someone who has
access to this valuable work please tell
me what family these three men belonged
to, and were they related to Samuel
King2 of West Greenwich, Rhode Island
C1745-1829y, son of Maglon1, King1 and
father of Joel King3 (1787-1867) of
Pompey, Onondoga county, New York.
Did Samuel of R. I. have Revolutionary
service of record? Did Samuel of L. I.
have military service of that period? A
Samuel King, minute man, enlisted in
Col. Josiah Smith's regt. residence South-
ampton, L. I., 1776. To what colony did
he flee? To R. I.? To what family did
he belong? Did the L. I. family come
originally from N. Y. as did so many
Long Island families? Any help on this
line would be very, very welcome. Are
the Le Valleys mentioned among other
Hugeunots in the "Hist, of New Ro-
chelle, N. Y." and the "Hist of Rye,
N. Y.?"
Maglon1 King and family seem to have
left Warwich shortly after the birth of
Paul, 1751, their youngest known son. A
Henry King of R. I. is thought to be
another son of Maglon1 King. W. W.
Codding-Coddington
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
Capt. James Codding of Braintree and
Taunton "died before 1753 in New York
State." He married Deborah Thaver3 of
Braintree, born Oct. 14, 1691. ' (Na-
thaniel2, Richard1.) Was he a son of
John and Hannah ("(jardner) Codding-
ton of Braintree? This John died there
June 1, 1680. The Gardner family lived
in Newport where I believe this Hannah
had a brother James living.
The Braintree vital records give the
marriage of a "widow Anne Coddington
of Newport" to Rev. Samuel Niel of
Braintree, Nov. 22, . Was she the
mother of Capt. James Codding (ton)?
Who was she ? Capt. Codding's descend-
ants have always claimed descent from
Wrilliam Coddington the first governor
of the Rhode Island plantation, whose
capital was at Newport, Gov. John Cog-
geshall being the first governor of the
Providence plantation. Major Nathaniel
Coddington2 born 1653, married Susanna,
a granddaughter of William and Anne
Hutchinson. Anne was a nickname for
both Hannah and Susanna. Who was the
"widow Anne" and was she the mother of
Capt. James Codding? W. W.

was a younger son of Pelatiah Pierce,
who married Ann Cadwell, of Hartford,
1758. (Edward3, Edward2, Edward1.)

Wilson- Hoyt
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
I am seeking the family of Mary Wil-
son, who married Lieut. David Hovt, at
Hatfield, 1689. He was born April 22,
1651, at Windsor, Conn. None of the
Wilsons of Windsor appear to have had
a Mary that early, and the only Mary
Wilson I can find of suitable age was the
one born Nov. 21, 1652, to Henry and
Mary (Metcalf) Wilson, of Dedham,
(unless Mary Wilson Hoyt was a
uiuuw). The two oldest daughters
were named Mary and Sarah Hoyt,
Mary Wilson of Dedham had a grand-
mother Sarah. What became of this
Mary Wilson? W. W.
Chapman- Cooke
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
John Oiapman of Salem, first appears
on record there Dec. 7, 1694, when he
married first a widow Hanna v(BechefV)
daughter of William and Margaret en
Lynn, and widow of Isaac Stearns, who
died before 1692, and came from Water-
town. She died Aug. 8, 1700, Salem! He
secondly married Feb. 13, 1701 at Salem,
Elizabeth Cook, born April 7, 1676,
daughter of John Cooke2 and Mary
(Buxton)2 (Anthony)1. Henry Cooke
the emigrant of Salem was bom 1615 in
Yorkshire and married June 1639 at
Plymouth, Mass., to Judith, daughter of
Henry Birdsall. Was Henry a son of
Francis Cooke by a former wife who
died in England shortly after his birth,
as has been thought by some people?
John Chapman died in Salem, Dec, 1644
Elizabeth died there 1758.
Children by the first marriage.
1. Hannah, born Aug. 14, 1695, died
Nov. 10, 1713.

Rhoades
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
Henry Rhoades of Lynn, Mass., is be-

England. He was born 1608, and died
at Lynn, 1703. He married Elizabeth
:{who was she?}, He was
a brother of 2?achary Rhoade~s of Provi-
dence, R. I. The latter was born 1603,

Rhoades was a founder of Lynn. His
sons were Samuel, Joseph and Jacob.

Who Was George Prince
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
In the old Sunbury cemetery, Sunbury,
Perm., are the graves of George Prince
and his wife Mary. George Prince, died
Jan. 25, "1874, aged 82 years. Mary, his
wife, died Jan. 9, 1872, aged 80 years.
Mr. Prince was prominent in Masonic
lodge affairs and claimed to be an illegiti-
mate son of King George IV., of Great
Britain. According to his tomb, he was
born in 1792. King George married ( 1 )
a Mrs. Fitzherbert, in 1784, and (2) his
cousin Caroline in 1795, from whom he
was later divorced. W. M. C.
Belden-Elderkin
[Contributed to Genealogy.]
The Belden Genealogy and Hinman's
Puritan Settlers of Conn., both give
Samuel2 and Mary ( ) as
the parents of the Samuel3 who was
born at Wethersfield. Stile's Hist, of
Wethersfield assigns him instead to John
Belden2 and Lydia (Standish). This
couple also had a Samuel whom the first
two authorities say was born Jan. 3,
1665. I would like correct data as to
the parents of the Samuel Belden3 who
married Hannah Elderkin, Jan. 14, 1685.
Were her parents John Elderkin1 and
Elizabeth (Drake) Gaylord. The latter
couple were married March 1, 1660, and
Hannah Elderkin seems to have been
born after that date. I would also like
the correct dates of birth of Samuel Bel-
den3 and Hannah (Elderkin). He died
at Wethersfield, Dec. 27, 1733. (ae—
? She died there Jan. 20, 1742,
(ae ?). Who was Mary
, who married Samuel Bel-
den2? Who was Lydia (Standish) who
married John Belden2? That she was
not a daughter of Thomas1 of Wethers-
field seems probable from his will. Any
other vital dates or information on this
topic greatly desired. W. W.
