After  a  careful  research  of  the  records  and  other  sources  of  infor- 
mation in  tlie  towns  of  Providence,  Cranston,  Johnston,  Warwick, 
Scituate,  Gloucester,  Cumberland  and  Smithfield  of  Rhode  Island, 
and  of  Plymouth  and  Salem,  of  Massachusetts,  I  have  compiled  the 
following-  record  of  the  families  of  William  and  John  Field  first  of 
Providence.  I  think  I  can  safely  claim  that  as  far  as  they  go  they 
are  correct. 

I  have  to  acknowledge  the  invaluable  assistance  of  Mr.  George  T. 
Paine,  of  Providence,  in  the  revision  of  my  work,  than  whom  no 
more  competent  authority  probably  can  be  found  in  the  State  on  any 
question  of  genealogy,  he  having  made  it  a  special  study. 

For  the  better  understanding  of  some  of  the  parties  interested  in 
these  records,  and  who  are  unaccustomed  to  this  method  of  number- 
ing in  the  record,  I  would  say  that  the  figures  on  the  margin  num- 
ber the  heads  of  families,  and  the  central  figures  number  each 
individual  from  the  first  down. 

I  would  also  explain  that  with  each  distinct  branch,  except  that  of 
James  Field,  I  have  commenced  back  at  the  first  progenitor,  which 
will  account  for  some  repetition. 

The  James  Field  record  commences  at  No.  1(5  on  the  John  Field 
record,  and  then  is  traced  by  itself,  he  being  a  direct  descendant  of 
John  Field  and  brother  of  Deacon  John  No.  15. 

There  are  several  families  of  Fields  in  this  city  that  are  not  de- 
scended from  the  first  settlers  of  that  name.  The  family  of  Rev. 
Samuel  J.  Field  are  descendants  of  Darby  Field,  the  first  white  man 
that  ascended  the  White  Mountains  and  who  settled  in  New^  Hamp- 
shire. 

Mr.  James  H.  Field,  who  descended  from  the  Massachusetts  Fields, 
migrated  here  from  Boston  Highlands.  Mr.  Silas  M.  Field,  son  of 
Robert,  who  resided  in  Carmel,  Maine,  tells  me  that  he  was  informed 
by  the  late  Daniel  Field  of  this  city  —  of  two  generations  back, —  that 
a  brother  of  the  first  John  Field  settled  in  Maine,  and  doubtless  was 
his  progenitor.

INTRODUCTION. 


It  is  said  by  the  genealogist  of  the  family  of  Zachariali  Field,  who 
first  settled  in  Dorchester,  Mass.,  that  "  the  first  individuals  of  the 
name  of  Field  —  AVilliam  and  John  —  that  settled  in  Providence,  emi- 
grated to  this  coxmtry  in  1632."  No  record  of  this  family  is  to  be 
found  in  Rhode  Island  earlier  than  163(3.  At  that  time  we  find  the 
name  of  William  Ff  eld,  Ff  eild  or  Ff  ield,  and  a  year  later  that  of  John 
Ffeld,  Ffeild  or  Ffield  on  the  public  records  of  Providence. 

The  name  of  llobert  Field  occurs  as  an  inhabitant  of  Newport  in 
1638.  He  afterwards  settled  in  Flushing,  L.  I.  William  Field  signed 
the  "  compact  "  in  1636.     John  Field  swore  allegiance  in  1637. 

Both  William  and  John  Field  were  in  public  life  after  this  date ;  both 
were  emj^loyed  in  the  transaction  of  tlie  business  of  the  Colonies; 
both  were  appointed  members  of  a  committee  for  arranging  and  es- 
tablishing a  "General  Court"  at  Newi^ort,  K.  I.,  in  1646. 

It  is  a  question  much  mooted  among  interested  j^arties  at  the  pres- 
ent time  whether  these  men,  William  and  John  Field,  were  related. 
It  is  a  tradition  in  the  family  of  Thomas  Field,  nephew  and  heir  of 
William,  that  AVilliam  Field  came  from  Snowden,  in  Wales.  I  find  no 
proof  of  it.  It  is  believed  by  the  various  genealogists  of  difl'erent  fam- 
ilies of  Field  in  the  United  States  that  these  men  were  brothers.  It  is 
stated  by  Henry  M.  Field,  the  genealogist  of  the  family  of  his  father, 
David  Dudley  Field,  D.  D.,  of  Stockbridge,  Mass.,  that  "a few  years 
after  the  arrival  of  his  ancestor,  Zachariali  Field,  who  settled  in  Dor- 
chester, Mass.,  two  brothers,  William  and  John  Field,  appeared  at 
Providence,  from  whom  are  descended  the  largo  number  of  Fields  in 
the  State  of  Rhode  Island."  It  is  the  opinion  of  others  that  they  were 
the  descendants  of  Sir  John  Field,  the  astronomer.  Sir  John  disin- 
herited one  or  more  of  his  sons,  on  account  of  their  political  and  pu- 
ritanic principles,  and  it  is  believed  they  fled  to  Holland  with  the  Pu- 
ritans, and  when  embarking  for  this  country  came  through  Wales, 
and  were  registered  there.  Osgood  Field,  a  distinguished  genealo- 
gist, formerly  of  New  York,  now  of  London,  England,  a  descendant 
of  Robert  Field,  of  Flushing,  L.  I.,  who  was  a  descendant  of  Sir  John 
Fi&ld,  expresses  great  confidence  in  the  opinion,  and  offers  some  strong 


4  INTRODUCTION. 

reasons  to  confirm  it.  that  William  and  John  were  brothers,  and  de- 
scendants of  Sir  John  Field  sons  of  William  Field,  a  son  of  Sir  John. 

A  careful  investigation  of  the  records  of  Plymouth  and  Salem 
throw  no  light  on  this  subject.  Neither  is  there  any  evidence  that 
either  of  them  attempted  a  settlement  in  either  town.  On  the  records 
of  Providence  are  recorded  some  business  transactions  between  Wil- 
liam and  John,  among  others  the  transfer  of  valuable  property, 
where  no  money  is  mentioned  as  compensation,  but  "valuable  con- 
siderations already  received"  is  mentioned  instead.  This  and  some 
other  considerations  indicate  more  than  a  mere  friendly  interest  be- 
tween the  parties,  but  no  relationship  is  mentioned.  Myron  Barr 
Field,  of  New  York,  thus  traces  the  genealogy  of  William  Field. 
"  He  was  the  son  of  William  Field,  born  1571,  who  was  son  of  Sir 
John  Field,  who  died  in  1587,  who  was  the  son  of  Kichard  Field,  who 
died  1542,  who  was  grand-son  of  William,  who  died  1480."  Osgood 
Field  in  his  book  of  genealogy  says  of  Sir  John  Field,  "that  he  de- 
scended from  and  used  the  same  '  arms '  of  the  family  of  Hubertus 
de  la  Feld,  who  went  to  England  with  William  the  Conqueror;  and 
who  traced  his  family  back  to  the  Chateau  de  la  Feld,  near  Colmar  in 
Alsatia,  in  France,  where  the  counts  of  that  name  had  been  seated  for 
centuries  —  so  early  as  the  darkest  period  that  succeeded  the  fall  of  the 
Koman  Empire."  He  also  states  that  "in  addition' to  the  original 
arms  of  this  ancient  family  of  the  West  Riding  of  Yorkshire  —  '  Sable 
a  chevron  between  three  garbs  argent '  —  was  granted  to  Sir  John 
Field  in  recognition  of  his  services  to  science."  "  A  dexter  arm  issuing 
out  of  clouds,  proper,  pessways,  habited  Gules,  holding  in  the  hand 
also  proper  a  sphere  Or."  He  also  states  that  the  prefix  '  de  la'  was 
dropped  at  the  time  of  the  war  between  England  and  France,  as 
unpopular.  He  traces  on  the  records  of  Bradford  and  other  places 
the  gradual  change  of  the  name  from  Ff eld  to  Field,  in  the  transfer  of 
the  same  property,  in  the  course  of  time.  He  also  alludes  to  the 
fact  that  some  of  the  property  that  belonged  to  that  ancient  family 
is  called  "  Field's  court"  at  the  present  time. 

There  is  a  remarkable  recurrence  of  the  same  names  among  the 
descendants  of  the  families  of  Thomas  and  John  Field,  that  pre- 
vailed in  the  family  of  Sir  John  and  his  ancestors.  The  names 
William,  Thomas,  Eichard,  John,  James,  Jeremiah,  Zachariah, 
and  Daniel  are  in  every  generation. 

Personal  resemblance  and  traits  of  character  are  still  traceable  in 
some  of  the  older  members  of  both  families;  strongly  marked  features, 
keen  blue  eyes,  and  sandy  or  brown  hair  characterized  the  earlier 
families.  Stern  integrity  of  purpose,  stubborn  wills,  fierce  tempers 
and  indomitable  independence  prevailed  in  both  as  a  class,  exhibiting 
the  antecedents  of  a  haughty  race  unaccustomed  to  servility. 

The  homestead  of  John  Field  was  situated  on  the  "  western  side  of 
the  saltwater,"  in  the  neighborhood  of  "Cowpen  Point."  Besides 
large  tracts  of  land  in  Cranston  and  Smithfield,  he  also  owned  the 


INTRODUCTION.  5 

tract  alluded  to,  as  devised  by  William  Field  in  1661  "  for  valuable 
considerations  already  received."  It  was  described  as  being  situated 
on  "  Waubossett  Plains,"  "  the  path  to  Mashapaug  running  through 
it," — now  Broad,  Weybosset  and  Greenwich  streets.  According  to 
Rev.  E.  M.  Stone,  of  the  Rliode  Island  Uistorical  Society,  the  house  lot 
of  William  Field  consisted  of  eight  acres  of  land,  fronting  on  what  is 
now  South  Main  street,  extending  from  Hopkins  to  Planet  street. 
The  house  stood  where  the  Old  Providence  Bank  now  stands,  and  the 
house  of  his  nephew  and  heir,  Thomas  Field,  stood  where  the  Provi- 
dence Institution  for  Savings  now  stands.  He  also  states  that 
"  William  Field's  house  was  one  of  the  three  that  was  barricaded  at 
tl\e  time  the  Indians  burnt  the  city."  William  Field  bought  out  the 
rights  of  two  of  the  original  owners  of  "proprietary  rights,"  the 
rights  of  Thomas,  James  and  Francis  Weston ;  and  his  landed  posses- 
sions were  large,  extending  into  Cranston,  Warwick,  Johnston, 
Scituate,  Gloucester  and  Smithfield.  Eight  hundred  acres  of  land 
adjacent  to  "Field's  Point,"  (that  bears  his  name)  was  included  in  his 
possessions,  and  it  Avas  the  homestead  of  later  generations. 

Leaving  biographical  notices  to  abler  pens,  I  will  simply  say  that 
much  of  interest  might  be  said  of  many  individuals  in  both  families. 
The  second  John  Field,  of  Providence,  who  settled  in  Bx'idgewater 
and  was  called  "  Capt.  John  Field  of  Bridgewater,"  was  consjiicuous 
in  his  day  for  his  public  services,  wealth  and  social  position.  His 
great-grandson,  Dea.  John  Field,  4th,  of  Providence,  was  also  one  of 
the  most  noted  men  of  his  time,  for  his  enteri^rise,  piety  and  benevo- 
lence, his  large  possessions  making  some  of  his  descendants  rich, 
even  at  the  present  day.  There  are  many  of  the  descendants  of 
Zachariah  Field,  2d  son  of  the  first  John  Field,  of  Providence,  that 
our  city  is  justly  proud  of,  for  their  culture,  social  position,  enter, 
prise  and  wealth.     Many  of  them  ai'e  among  our  leading  men. 

Most  of  the  descendants  of  Thomas  Field,  the  nephew  and  heir  of 
the  first  William  Field,  settled  in  other  States,  where  they  and  some 
of  their  descendants  have  left  an  honoroble  record.  The  sons  of  Capt. 
William  Field,  of  Fields  Point,  were  all  of  them  noted  men.  A  per- 
son that  was  familiar  with  the  society  of  their  day,  said  of  them : 
"No  young  men  in  the  State  were  more  'looked  uji  to'  than  Abner 
and  Nehemiah  Field."  They  both  held  commissions  in  the  Conti- 
nental Army  before  they  were  twenty-one  years  old,  and  were  pres- 
ent at  the  battle  of  Bunker  Hill.  They  were  leading  men  in  public 
and  private  life  in  the  towns  where  they  settled,  and  some  of  their 
descendants  are  among  the  most  enterprising  Western  men.  "  Hon. 
George  Field,  of  Cranston,"  the  youngest  son  of  Captain  William, 
held  a  high  social  position,  and  was  noted  for  his  moral  and  social 
qualities.  He  was  always  in  public  life.  His  stern  sense  of  right, 
and  his  unyielding  integrity,  his  stately  and  dignified  bearing,  caused 
him  occasionally  to  be  alluded  to  as  an  "Old  Roman  Senator."  One 
of  our  orators,  in  describing  the  Rhode  Island  Assembly  of  other  days, 


b  INTRODUCTION. 

alluded  to  "  George  Field,  the  Cato  of  the  Senate."  His  heart  and 
hand  was  ever  open  to  the  distressed,  and  his  counsel  was  sought  by 
all  ranks  in  life. 

People  of  all  stations,  parties  and  creeds  attended  his  funeral,  and 
the  Town  Council  of  Cranston  adjourned  their  meeting  in  order  to  be 
present.  Various  otliers  equally  worthy  of  mention  I  might  notice 
if  space  would  admit.
