INTRODUCTION. 


This  book,  which  is  the  genealogy  of  the  descendants  of  only  two 
of  the  Hitchcocks  who  early  settled  in  this  country,  scarcely  needs  an 
introduction.  The  family  seems  to  have  been,  and  still  is,  a  very 
numerous  one  in  England,  the  "  Wills  and  Administrations  in  the 
Prerogative  Court  of  Canterbury  "  showing  a  list  of  116  of  this 
name  between  the  years  of  1590  and  1670.  It  would  probably  not 
be  difficult  to  trace  the  ancestry  back  to  England  of  the  descendants 
of  Thomas  Hitchcock  who  at  the  age  of  22  came  to  Virginia  in  the 
"  Paule  of  London,"  or  of  the  Thomas  Hitchcock  who  with  Alice 
his  wife  came  to  Virginia  in  the  lt  Marygold  "  in  1624  and  settled 
on  Hog  Island,  or  of  the  William  Hitchcock  who  sailed  in 
1635  in  the  "  Plaine  Joan"  for  Virginia.  But  Matthias,  Luke 
and  Edward  came  and  left  no  trail  behind  them.  Probably 
they  were  men  in  the  humbler  walks  of  life.  All  attempts 
have  failed  to  discover  an}T  trace  of  them  previous  to  May,  1635  when 
Matthias  at  the  age  of  25  landed  in  Boston  and  settled  for  a  short 
time  in  Watertown,  Mass.,  from  which  place  he  soon  removed  to 
East  Haven,  Conn.,  where  our  history  of  the  family  begins.  There 
he  was  joined  by  Luke  and  Edward  as  early  as  July  1,  1644  at  which 
date  they  both  took  "  Freemaus  oath"  in  New  Haven.  Matthias 
and  Edward  remained  in  East  Haven  and  in  this  and  the  towns  in  the 
neighborhood  of  New  Haven  the  descendants  of  Matthias  settled  for 
several  generations.  About  1645  Luke  removed  to  Wethersfield, 
Conn.,  dying  there  in  1659  after  which  date  his  children  removed  to 
Springfield,  Mass.  and  in  this  neighborhood  the  records  of  the  earlier 
generations  of  his  descendants  may  be  found. 

It  may  be  of  interest  to  state  that  the  Hitchcock  family  is  supposed 
to  have  come  originally  from  the  county  of  Wiltshire,  England, 


VI.  INTRODUCTION. 

where  they  were  located  from  the  time  of  William  the  Conqueror. 
The  word  "  Hitch  "  is  an  old  nurse  name  for  Richard  and  "  Cock  "  is 
the  ordinary  diminutive.  "Anciently  there  were  two  families  of 
Hitchcocks  in  Wiltshire  that  bore  separate  "  coats  of  arms,"  one  as 
follows  : 

"Armor,  argent  (silver),  on  a  cross  azure  (blue)  five  fleurs-de-lis, 
gold,  in  the  dexter  chief  quarter  a  Lion  rampant,  red.  Crest, 
a  castle,  red,  on  the  tower  a  Lion's  head  erased,  in  the  mouth  a 
round  buckle,  its  mottoe  "  Esse  Quod  Oj>to." 

The  other  one  was  "  Armor,  gules  (red),  a  chevron,  silver  between 
three  Alligators.     Crest,  an  Alligator." 

The  Pedigree  of  these  Wiltshire  families  can  be  found  in  the  Har- 
lean  collection  of  the  British  Museum  and  may  also  be  found  in  full 
in  the  "Visitation  of  the  County  of  Wiltshire  by  Sir  T.  Phillips, 
A.  D.,  1623,"  and  also  in  "Hoar's  History  of  Wiltshire." 

The  aim  of  this  book  has  been  to  preserve  the  records  of  a  portion 
of  the  Hitchcock  family  so  far  as  they  could  be  secured  from  town 
and  church  records,  records  of  Probate  Courts  and  Registries  of 
Deeds,  and  from  family  records  where  they  have  not  differed  too 
widely  from  each  other.  The  records  of  thirty-eight  different  towns 
in  Connecticut  and  Massachusetts  have  been  personally  examined, 
also  those  of  a  few  towns  in  New  York  ;  where  these  and  family  records 
disagree  the  preference  has  been  given  to  town  records,  except  where 
the  old  family  Bible  could  be  found  ;  in  which  case  the  Bible  has  been 
supposed  to  be  correct. 

No  effort  has  been  made  to  follow  the  descendants  of  Matthias  or 
Luke  after  the  name  has  been  lost  by  marriage.  The  thanks  of  the 
family  are  due  to  Prof.  Edward  Hitchcock,  Jr.,  of  Cornell  Univer- 
sity, since  he  was  the  first  to  arouse  an  interest  in  the  matter  and 
he  himself  collected  and  arranged  the  earliest  records  of  the  family. 
Also  to  Mr.  Peter  M.  Hitchcock  of  Cleveland,  Ohio,  to  the  Hon. 
Hiram,  and  Welcome  G.  Hitchcock  of  New  York,  to  Mr.  Calvin 
Hitchcock  of  Ware,  Mass.  and  Mr.  John  and  Miss  Frances  E.  Hitch- 
cock now  Mrs.  William  D.  Hunt  of  Boston  for  the  financial  aid, 
without  which  it  would  have  been  impossible  to  have  carried  on  the 
work  even  imperfectly. 

Mrs.  Elroy  M.  Avery  of  Cleveland,  Mr.  O.  B.  Hitchcock  of  Bing- 
hamton,  N.  Y.  and  Capt.  Calvin  D.  Cowles  of  Washington,  D.  C,

from  their  wider  experience  in  snch  work.

MATTHIAS  HITCHCOCK, 

Of  Wateutown,  Mass.,  and  East  Haven,  Conn.,  1639. 


Matthias  Hitchcock  came  from  Loudon  to  Boston  on  the  bark 
"  Susan  and  Ellen  "  in  the  spring  of  1635.  He  whs  then  25  years 
of  age.  In  Bond's  History  of  Watertown  is  a  ''  Record  of  Matthew 
Hitchcock  a  townsman  then  inhabiting,"  receiving,  July,  1636, 
twenty-three  acres  of  land  in  the  "  Great  Dividends."  This  land  he 
afterwards  sold  to  D.  Patrick.  In  1639  his  name  appears  in  the 
records  of  New  Haven,  Conn.,  where  he  was  among  the  original 
signers  of  the  "  foundamental  agreement  made  on  the  4th  of  the 
fo  rerth  moneth  called  June,  1639."  He  was  also  one  of  the  five 
purchasers  of  "  South  End  Neck"  now  East  Haven,  Conn.,  where 
the  five  dwelt  after  1651. 

In  Atwater's  History  of  the  Colony  of  New  Haven,  pp.  1 10-151  r 
are  found  the  following  references  to  Matthias.  His  name  is  given 
in  the  schedule  of  Planters  prepared  before  April,  164],  but  found 
in  the  records  of  1643.  Three  persons  are  numbered  in  his  family. 
He  is  reckoned  as  having  an  estate  of  £50  and  is  given  ten  acres  in 
the  "  Eirst  Division,"  two  acres  in  the  neck,  four  acres  in  the 
meadow,  sixteen  acres  in  the  "  Second  Division,"  and  his  yearly 
rates  for  land  are  put  at  eight  shillings. 

"Jan.  4,  1647,  Matthias  Hitchcock  for  a  wilful  neglect  to  walk  ye 
round  when  ye  officers  called  him  was  lined  5  shillings." 

"  Nov.  7,  1648.  He  was  too  late  with  eight  others  iu  coming  to 
trayning  yesterday  in  the  afternoon,  but  they  said  they  was  there 
before  the  bodye  moved  which  as  the  Captain  said  was  longer  before 
it  moved  than  it  used  to  be,  yet  because  it  hath  bine  the  usiall  couise 
to  count  no  man  late  till  the  bodye  hath  been  removed,  ye  court 
passed  it  by  this  time." 

"  Feb.  6,  1655.  Matthias  Hitchcock  passeth  over  to  John  Wake- 
field his  house  and  home-lot  on  the  other  side  of  the  "  West  Creek."'

Z  DESCENDANTS    OF    MATTHIAS    HITCHCOCK. 

From  Colonial  Records,  p.  103,  December,  1651. 

"  William  Andrews  agreed  &  ordered  that  Richard  Berkley  (?)  & 
Matthias  Hitchcock,  Edward  Patterson,  &  Edward  Hitchcock  shall 
have  the  neck  of  land  by  the  seaside  beyond  the  cove,  &  all  the 
meadow  belonging  to  it  &c — paying  to  the  town  one  penny  the  acre 
for  500  acres  to  settle  on  it,  not  to  dispose  of  it  without  the  towns 
consent,  if  removed  from  the  Plantation  within  a  year  to  leave  the 
land  to  the  town." 

A  volume  of  ''Records  of  the  Colony  and  Plantation  of  New 
Haven,  1688-1649"  was  published  in  1857.  A  "Jurisdiction"  was 
formed  by  the  Confederation  of  the  Plantations  of  Guilford  and 
Milford  with  New  Haven,  the  latter  then  including  Stamford,  South- 
old  and  Branford.  This  volume  contains  records  of  the  Colony  of 
New  Haven  while  it  remained  distinct,  the  beginning  of  records  of 
Jurisdiction  (those  from  1644-53  being  lost),  and  of  town  or  Plan- 
tation up  to  1650. 

Matthias  had  a  brother  as  this  record  shows:  "Nov.  2,  1642. 
Ct.  (Court)  ordered  that  Matthias  Hitchcock  shall  either  pay  20s  to 
Mr.  Perry,  which  he  undertook  in  behalf  of  his  brother,  or  else  sell 
so  much  of  his  brothers  goods  as  will  satisfie  the  said  debt." 

That  brother  was  with  hardly  a  doubt  Edward  Hitchcock.  The 
two  were  fined  about  training,  on  the  same  day,  Jan.  4,  1643  ;  were 
granted  land  together  Dec,  1651  ;  and  Matthias  testified,  April  5, 
1659,  as  to  what  Edward  said  in  his  last  sickness  as  to  giving  Eliza- 
beth Perry  a  child's  part.  For  account  of  Edward  and  some  of  his 
children  see  Appendix. 

According  to  these  records,  Matthias  Hitchcock  was,  Jan.  4,  1643, 
fined  Is.  for  coming  late  to  training;  March  7,  1643,  fined  3s.  4d. 
for  disorder  in  his  watch.  On  March  10,  1646,  seats  in  the  meeting 
house  were  assigned  to  all,  but  no  mention  was  made  of  either  Luke 
or  Edward.  On  Nov.  6,  1649,  Matthias  was  fined  for  refusing  to 
watch. 

Matthias  died  Nov.  16,  1669,  and  Elizabeth  his  widow  in  1676. 
An  inventory  of  her  estate,  which  consisted  of  her  garments  and 
some  household  stuff  was  taken  June  6,  1676. 

The  will  of  Matthias,  dated  Nov.,  1669,  is  as  follows  : 

"  I  Matthias  Hitchcock  being  under  the  afflicting  hand  of  God,  & 
willing  to  set  things  in  order,  &  to  put  my  house  in  order. 

"I  doe  give  the  halfe  of  my  two  farms  to  my  deare  wife  during  her 
lifetime,  &  the  other  parts,  yt  is  to  say,  the  two  halves  of  the  two

farms  for  John  and  Nathaniel  to  improve  for  their  mother  to  ye  halfe. 
"  I  doe  give  to  my  sou  Eliaser  two  swine  and  a  waggon,  also  I  doe 
give  unto  my  son  Eliaser  oue  acre  of  ground  adjoining  to  Goodman 
Pattison's  lott.     I  also  give  unto  Eliaser  one  Hoarse. 

"  I  doe  also  give  uuto  Eliaser  my   son  my  first  farme  after  my 

widows  decease  the  two  lots 1  except,  they  are  to  go  along  with 

the  other  farme.  At  the  entering  those  two  farmes,  &  when  ye  sd 
sons  do  take  possession  the  two  farms  are  to  pay  twenty  pounds  ye 
year  ten  pounds  a  farme  to  be  paid  to  Elizabeth. 

••  Nathaniel  hath  of  his  own  proper  estate  already  in  possession, 
one  mare  one  cow  one  heifer  one  calf. 

•'John  hath  of  his  own  estate  proper  already  in  possession,  one

&  all  ye  stocks  remaining  after  ye  debts  are  paid  are  to  be  divided 
between  my  two  youuger  sons  and  daughter. 

"  Within  house  all  my  movable  goods  &  household  stuff  I  give  to 
my  deare  wife  &  daughter  Elizabeth.  All  cartes  aud  ploughs  &

"  That  ye  two  witnesses  did  express  before  they  took  oath  yt  the 
testators  mind  in  these  expressions  about  ye  improvement  of  the  two 
farms  during  his  wifes  lifetime  were  that  his  two  sons  John  and 
Nathaniel  should  improve  the  whole  two  farms  for  their  mother  to 
ye  halfe." 

We  consider  Eliaser  of  the  will  to  be  the  same  as  Eliakim  of  later 
records,  for  Dodd  in  his  history  of  East  Haven  so  states  and  Eliakim 
occupied  the  identical  land. 

Matthias'  children  were  :

dau.  of  Thomas  Merrick  of  Springfield,  Mass.,  who  came

Eliakim2  Hitchcock  (Matthias1),  son  of  Matthias  and  Elizabeth 

Hitchcock  was  born  and  married,   Nov.  4,  1666-7,   to  Sarah 

Merrick  of  Springfield.  She  was  born  in  1643,  and  was  the  daughter 
of  Thomas  Merrick  or  Mirick  (the  name  is  spelled  both  ways  on  the 
records),  who  came  from  Wales  to  Roxbiiry,  Mass.,  in  1630  and 
removed  from  there  to  Springfield  in  1636. 

Vol.  3  of  the  New  Haven  Probate  Records,  which  contained  the 
papers  relating  to  the  estate  of  Eliakim  Hitchcock,  is  missing,  but  an 
inventory  of  his  estate  was  taken  by  John  Thompson,  May  29,  1704. 
This  was  signed  by  Thomas  Hitchcock,  administrator.  A  quietus 
was  granted  to  Thomas,  administrator  on  estate  of  his  father  Eliakim 
of  New  Haven,  Feb.  3,  1706.  Later,  at  a  court  held  April  6,  1719, 
there  was  a  division  of  the  unadministered  estate  of  Eliakim  Hitch- 
cock, amounting  to  £17-0-4,  which  the  court  ordered  divided  into 
eight  equal  parts,  "  whereof  two  shall  be  given  to  the  eldest  son  and 
one  each  to  the  other  Legatees,"  and  at  the  same  court  there  was  a 
division  apparently,  (the  record  is  nearly  illegible)  of  land  on  the 
East  Side  valued  at  £418-10-0.  Thomas  received  4^  acres,  and 
Matthias,  Hannah,  Samuel,  Joseph,  John  and  Sarah  2^--  acres  each. 
their  children  were  :

donation  to  the  church.  In  1750  Joseph.  Sr.,  is  distinctly  credited

He  seems  to  have  been  prominent  in  church  affairs  during  the  years 
between  1738  and  1760,  as  his  name  appears  constantly  on  an  old 
account  book  which  was  the  only  relic  saved  from  the  fire  which  burnt 
church  and  parsonage.  According  to  this  book,  in  1757  he  sub- 
scribed £50-10-0,  aud  gave  a  day's  work  at  building  14-  rods  of  stone 
fence,  rating  his  time  at£0-5-7^,  also  a  day's  work  digging  a  well, 
rating  his  time  at  £0-3-4^.  In  Nov.,  1758,  himself  and  Daniel,  one 
day's  work;  also  in  Nov.,  1758,  one  of  himself,  one  of  Daniel  and 
one  of  Amos. 

In  1760  he  bought  a  pew  for  which  he  paid  £50-5-0.  His  last 
appearances  in  Norwalk  town  records  were  Aug.  27,  1766,  when  he 
bought  33  acres  of  laud  with  dwelling  house  on  it,  and  in  1769  when 
he  sold  about  12  acres.  He  married  Hannah  Marvin,  oldest  daughter 
of  John  Marvin,  Sr.  by  his  2d  wife  Rachel  St  John.  She  was  born 
at  Norwalk,  Conn.,  Dec.  4,  1722.

married  Miudwell  Rundle,  daughter  of  Win.  Joseph  Rundle.  Nor-

Abram  Todd,  minister  of  the  Gospel."

Samuel4  Hitchcock  (Joseph3,  Eliakim2,  Matthias1)  son  of  Joseph 

and  Rebecca  ( )  Hitchcock  was  born  in  Norwalk,  Conn.,  Sept., 

1726;  married  in  1752,  Abigail  Dunham  of  Sharon,  Conn.  She  was 
born  in  April,  1727.  Her  brother  Jonathan  was  one  of  the  first 
settlers  of  Sharon  and  presided  over  the  first  town  meeting  there. 
Samuel  removed  to  Sharon,  Conn.,  about  1752  and  settled  on  a  farm 
in  the  southwest  part  of  the  town  near  the  Amenia  Union  Post- 
office,  where  in  1757  he  purchased  his  homestead.  This  farm  is  still 
in  the  possession  of  his  grand-daughter,  Joanna  Lambert.  His  first 
child,  Samuel  Jr.,  was  born  there  in  1755,  and  the  100th  anniversary 
was  celebrated  there  in  1855.     Samuel  died  in  Sharon,  Jan.  1,  1794. 

From  Sedgwick's  History  of  the  town  of  Sharon,  I  copy  the  fol- 
lowing. 

"  Samuel  Hitchcock  was  from  Norwalk  in  1752.  He  purchased 
of  Jonathan  Gillett  the  place  where  Governor  Smith  lived,  and 
resided  there  five  years  ;  he  then  removed  to  the  south  part  of  the 
town  where  his  son  the  late  Asa  Hitchcock  lived,  and  there  spent  the 
remainder  of  his  days.  It  was  at  his  house  that  the  first  Methodist 
sermon  preached  in  the  town  was  delivered.  The  fact  that  the  first 
Methodist  sermon  was  preached  at  his  house,  would  lead  one  to  think 
that  the  family  were  Methodist.  The  fact  is  they  were  Churchmen, 
and  during  the  Revolution  they  remained  passive  because  of  Tory 
proclivities  engendered  by  "  Church  and  State."  The  descendants 
of  Asa  Hitchcock  still  adhere  to  the  church.  Stephen's  descendants 
are  divided  among  many  denominations,  but  the  greater  part  are 
Universalists  and  Unitarians." 

CENTENNIAL    CELEBRATION. 

"It  is  one  hundred  years  the  present  season  since  our  Grandfather 
took  possession  of  the  farm  on  which  the  heirs  of  Asa  Hitchcock 
now  reside.

James  L.7  Hitchcock  (Hiram6,  Amos5,  Samuel4 ,  Samuel3,  Eli a- 
kim2,  Matthias1)  son  of  Hiram  and  Lucinda  (Greenleaf )  Hitchcock 
was  born  June  10,  1830,  in  Oriskany  Falls,  Oneida  Co.,  New  York. 
He  married,  Sept.  14,  1862,  in  Edinburg,  Portage  Co.,  Ohio,  Carrie 
M.  Trumbull  daughter  of  Robert  and  Margaret  Trumbull.  The  fol- 
lowing account  of  James  L.  Hitchcock  is  an  extract  from  the  "  Bio- 
graphical Record  of  Genesee,  Lapeer  and  Tuscola  Counties,  Mich." 

"The  business  circles  of  Tuscola  Co.  acknowledge  a  worthy  rep- 
resentative in  the  subject  of  this  notice,  who  is  a  hardware  merchant 
in  Cass  City.  He  came  to  this  place  about  twenty  years  ago  and  by 
his  honest  dealings  has  gained  a  large  trade  and  what  is  better  still 
has  won  the  esteem  of  all  with  whom  he  has  come  in  contact.  It  is 
to  such  as  he  that  the  county  is  indebted  for  its  present  high  standing 
among  other  counties  of  Michigan,  for  it  has  ever  been  his  aim  to 
promote  by  his  influence  and  means  all  enterprises  calculated  to 
develop  the  resources  of  the  community. 

When  Mr.  Hitchcock  became  of  age  he  learned  the  tinsmith  trade 
of  his  uncle.     Sept.  10.    1858  he  purchased   from  the  government 


FAMILY    OF    ELIAKIM.  37 

120  acres  in  Tuscola  Co.  ;  moving  on  his  laud  he  built  a  log  cabin 
which  he  covered  temporarily  with  sheet  iron  (this  he  afterwards 
made  into  camp  kettles  and  sold  to  the  Indians. )  He  was  the 
pioneer  hardware  man  in  Central  and  Northern  Tuscola,  his  shop 
being  located  in  a  dense  forest,  which  abounded  iu  bears,  deer,  wolves 
and  other  wild  animals.  He  built  the  first  frame  house  in  miles 
around  and  manufactured  tinware  and  other  goods  in  his  line  such  as 
Indians  and  the  few  white  settlers  required.  The  manufacturing  of 
those  goods  occupied  his  evenings  and  rainy  days  while  iu  pleasant 
weather  he  was  busily  engaged  in  improving  his  place.  After  he 
was  married  his  wife  taught  school  two  years  in  Tuscola  Co.,  walk- 
ing two  miles  to  and  from  school  both  night  and  morning.  March, 
1864,  Mr.  Hitchcock  moved  to  Wahjamega,  erected  a  store  and  res- 
idence and  while  he  worked  at  his  trade  his  wife  acted  as  clerk. 
Sept.,  1872  he  removed  to  Cass  City  where  he  has  since  resided. 
Since  Mr.  Hitchcock  came  to  Cass  City  he  has  contributed  materially 
to  its  welfare.  In  his  political  views  Mr.  Hitchcock  is  a  staunch 
Republican,  and  has  held  the  office  of  Justice  of  the  Peace,  Eoad 
Commissioner,  School  Inspector  of  Dayton  Township  as  well  as 
Treasurer  of  Cass  City. 

Through  many  of  the  earty  days  of  his  business  here  he  was 
obliged  to  haul  his  goods  from  Saginaw  to  this  point  which  made  his 
work  heavy  indeed,  however  he  has  lived  to  enjoy  the  result  of  the 
arduous  toil  of  former  years."

Nathaniel4  Hitchcock  (Nathaniel3,  Nathaniel2,  Matthias1)  son  of 
Nathaniel  and  Rebecca  (Morris)  Hitchcock,  was  born  in  East 
Haven,  Dec.  16,  1705.  He  married  Feb.  14,  1728,  Elizabeth  Mans- 
field. He  removed  to  Southington  in  1743.  He  was  living  in  Far- 
mington,  Conn.,  Feb.  27,  1747 — 8.  In  Farmington  are  many  deeds 
recorded  of  sales  of  land  in  Southington  Parish  by  Nathaniel  Hitch- 
cock of  Farmington  to  his  sons  Nathaniel,  Amos,  Joel,  and  Zacha- 
riah,  dating  from  1763 — 1769.  He  afterwards  removed  to  Burling- 
ton, Conn.,  where  he  died.  His  widow  died  Sept.  11,  1807,  as.  100 
years  and  eleven  months. 

The  following  is  an  extract  from  the  Hartford  Courant  of  Sept. 
30,  1807  concerning  Elizabeth  (Mansfield)  Hitchcock  who  lived  to 
be  nearly  101  years  of  age. 

"  She  was  the  widow  of  Mr.  Nathaniel  Hitchcock  by  whom  she 
had  eleven  children,  four  sons  and  seven  daughters.  Ten  of  these 
survive.  The  eldest  is  79  years  old,  the  youngest  57.  Her  sixth,  a 
son,  died  aged  62.  By  best  accounts  she  had  78  grandchildren,  of 
whom  60  are  now  living.  Of  the  4th  and  5th  generation  but  four 
have  died.  Of  the  whole  279  descendants  only  23  have  died  and  256 
remain. 

At  the  age  of  94  she  rode  12  or  14  miles  to  visit  one  of  her  child- 
ren. She  was  able,  until  her  last  sickness,  to  walk  abroad  and  to 
go  up  and  down  stairs  without  assistance. 


FAMILY    OF    NATHANIEL.  55 

She  possessed  a  strong  mind  and  retained  her  faculties  but  little 
impaired  until  deranged  by  her  last  sickness.     She  had  been  for  70 
years  a  professor  of  religion  and  was  constant  in  retiring  twice  a 
day  for  secret  devotion,  and  enjoyed  a  humble  hope  of  eternal  glory 
through  the  redemption  of  Jesus  Christ  our  Lord. 
The  sweet  remembrance  of  the  just 
Shall  flourish  when  they  sleep  in  dust."

Caleb4  Hitchcock  (Nathaniel3,  Nathaniel2 ,  Matthias1)  sou  of 
Nathaniel  and  Rebecca  (Morris)  Hitchcock,  was  born  Sept.  2,  1712. 
He  married  1st,  Feb.  16,  1738 — 9,  Isabell  Goodsell,  born  Sept.  9, 
1717.  Deeds  in  possession  of  Rev.  O.  B.  Hitchcock  of  Windham, 
N.  Y.  show  that  as  early  as  1735  Caleb  Hitchcock  bought  land  in 
New  Haven,  Conn.,  at  what  is  called  the  "  Half  Mile  "  bounded 
easterly  by  the  line  between  Branford  and  New  Haven  and  that  it 
remained  in  the  possession  of  the  family  until  the  time  of  Caleb's 
death  at  which  time  he  occupied  half  the  house.  A  highway  appears 
to  have  been  originally  laid  out  through  his  land  ;  but  this  highway 
was  sold,  Dec.  22,  1742,  to  Caleb  Hitchcock  and  Hiram  Blakeslee, 
through  whose  land  it  ran.  The  deed  was  signed  by  Daniel  Hitch- 
cock one  of  the  town  committee  appointed  for  the  purpose.  In  1743 
Caleb  Hitchcock  bought  land  in  the  parish  of  Northbmy,  town  of 
Waterbury,  Conn.,  but  did  not  remove  there.  Also  in  1743  he 
bought  of  Samuel  Barnes  of  New  Haven  one  part  of  a  sloop  called 
the  "  Three  friends,  now  riding  at  anker  in  New  Haven  harbor,  with 
all  her  Riging,  viz.,  mast,  boom,  bolsprit,"  etc.,  etc.,  paying  for  it 
£55  old  tenor.  In  1757  he  bought  land  adjoining  his  own,  and  also 
Daniel  Hitchcock's  laud. 

He  married  2d,  May  26,  1757,  Sarah  Shepard,  widow  of  Thomas 
Shepard  of  New  Haven.  She  was  perhaps  born  March  12,  1712 
and  was  daughter  of  Samuel  and  Sarah  (Bradley)  Hotchkiss.  She 
married   1st,    Thomas   Shepard  as  early  as  1729.     He  died  in  1755

when  as  above  she  married  2d,  Caleb  Hitchcock.    She  died,  probably 
on  Sept.  17,  1773. 

Caleb  Hitchcock  married  3d,  as  early  as  1775,  Lydia,  who  was 
born  about  1722.  She  joined  the  North  Haven  church  from  the 
"  "White  Haven  church,"  at  Xesv  Haven  center.  Caleb  died  March 
30,  1777.  Administration  on  his  estate  was  granted  to  Jacob  and 
Samuel  Hitchcock,  April  7.  1777.  Xew  Haven  Probate  records  show 
that  he  made  a  will  but  never  signed  it,  ,;  as  he  was  waiting  for  his 
son  Caleb  who  lived  at  a  considerable  di.-tance."  The  children  agreed 
to  the  provisions  of  this  will  and  a  division  was  accordingly  made. 
His  widow  Lydia  died  Jan.  9,  1782,  se.  55,  which  would  give  her 
biith  about  1726.

Ford,  daughter  of  Matthew  Ford.  They  would  seem  from  births  and 
baptisms  of  children  to  have  lived  at  Cheshire,  Conn.,  as  well  as 
New  Haven  and  also  on  the  church  records  of  Cheshire  appears, 
"  Esther,  wife  of  John  Hitchcock,  bapt.  Aug.  1,  1742."  She  died

a  house  in  the  twenty  rod  highway  just  north  of  Burying  Ground 
Hill. 

The  following,  relating  to  Amos  Hitchcock,  is  taken  from  the 
History  of  Southington  : 


FAMILY    OF    NATHANIEL.  65 

"Amos  Hitchcock  enlisted  in  the  army  in  the  company  of  Capt. 
Gad  Stanley  of  New  Britain  and  was  connected  with  the  regiment  of 
Col.  Jedadiah  Huntington  of  Norwich.  He  was  at  the  battle  of 
Long  Island,  and  together  with  his  sons  Jason  and  Samuel,  he  was 
with  '  Mad  Anthony '  Wayne  at  Stony  Point  when  that  position 
was  taken  Jnly  15,  1779.  In  the  first  forlorn  hope  called  for  he  was 
the  second  to  step  forth.  When  the  company  was  filled  it  was 
ordered  that  if  any  felt  unwilling  to  go  forward  they  might  yet 
retire.  Mr.  Hitchcock  said  that  one  man  stepped  back,  and  was 
met  with  '  such  3'ells  of  contempt,'  that  if  others  desired  to  do  so 
they  were  deterred  from  it.  He  said  that  in  some  way  the}-  had 
learned  the  enemy's  countersign,  and  were  thus  enabled  to  execute 
successfully  the  venture." 

The  following  is  a  letter  he  wrote  his  wife  while  in  the  service  : 

"  New  York,  Ait;.   30,   1776. 
Dear   Wife  : — 

I  take  this  opportnnit}'  to  write  to  you  to  let  you  know  that 
through  the  divine  Goodness  of  God  I  am  well  as  I  hope  these  few 
lines  will  find  you  also.  The  news  we  have  here  is  more  than  I  am 
able  to  inform  you  in  one  sheet  of  paper,  the  twenty-second  day  of 
this  month  the  King's  troops  landed  down  at  the  Narrows  upon  Long 
Island,  and  marched  up  about  five  miles  and  they  are  in  camp,  and 
a  tuesday  of  this  week  they  came  out  against  us  and  got  around  us 
before  we  knew  anything  of  it,  their  light  horse  came  in  front  and 
we  fit  upon  a  retreat  back  to  our  forts  which  was  about  four  miles, 
they  got  around  us  two  or  three  times,  but  through  the  goodness  of 
God  Capt.  Stanley's  Compaq-  all  escaped  safe,  although  many  others 
did  not,  there  is  not  but  about  seventy  men  left  in  Colonel  Hunting's 
Regiment,  six  out  of  our  place  Namely — Colonel  Clark,  Ensign 
Gillett,  Sargent  Huugerford,  Gad  Fuller,  Johu  Dutton,  Isaac  Potter, 
killed  or  took  a  tuesday  night  about  midnight  orders  came  to  us  to 
leave  Long  Island  and  go  over  to  York  and  now  Long  Island  is  in 
the  hands  of  the  Buchers  and  I  believe  New  York  will  be  soon,  by 
what  I  can  learn  there  is  something  at  the  bottom,  but  what  I  can- 
not tell,  God  only  knows. 

So  I  subscribe  myself  your  husband, 

Amos  Hitchcock. 

P.  S.  Send  every  opportunity.  I  reseaved  your  letter  and 
tobacco  and   was   glad    of  ihem,  and  I  was  very  glad  to  understand

ii.  George  H.,  b.  Sept.  29,  1850;  m.  in  England  in  1882,  Henrietta 
Richardson.  He  is  an  artist.  "  It  was  in  Mr.  George 
Hitchcock's  Dutch  garden  at  Egmond  Hoef  that  Mr. 
Shannon  painted  the  well-known  portrait  of  his  friend, 
and  this  same  garden  gave  him  the  sobriquet  of  '  Tulip  ' 
Hitchcock.  The  gold  medal  of  the  American  Art  Associ- 
ation wras  awarded  to  him  for  his  '  Toilers  of  the  Sea.' 
His  '  Scarecrow  '  represented  a  red-cloaked  girl  sitting  in 
a  field  of  red  poppies.  It  is  in  painting  the  sand  dunes  of 
Holland  that  Mr.  Hitchcock  is  seen  at  his  very  best.  '  La 
Maternite '  is  one  of  these,  and  shows  us  a  woman  in  the 
sea  dunes  returning  from  work  with  her  children.  His 
early  life  was  spent  at  Providence,  in  the  United  States, 
and  here  he  was  educated  for  thelaAv,  but,  abandoning  his 
profession  for  the  more  pleasing  paths  of  paint,  he 
crossed  the  Atlantic  to  study  in  Paris  under  Boulanger 
and  Lefebvre.  It  was  Mesdag,  however,  whom  he  found 
at  the  Hague,  who  left  the  final  impression  on  the  painter, 
and  from  that  time  he  has  remained  faithful  to  that  land 
of  dikes  and  dunes,  blue  china  and  black  tulips,  working 
all  through  the  summer  at  Egmond-aan-Zee,  elaborating 
all  the  winter  in  Paris,  London  or  Madrid — a  truly  ideal 
existence  for  an  artist  who  is  at  one  and  the  same  time   a

realist  and  the  most  ardent  of  idealists.  Last  year  Mr. 
Hitchcock  had  nothing  to  show  in  England,  for  of  the 
twenty-six  canvases  which  he  took  to  New  York  at  the 
end  of  1892  not  one  remained  unsold."

Hiram7  Hitchcock  (Jesse6,  John5,  John*,  JoJin3,  Nathaniel2, 
Matthias1)  sou  of  Jesse  and  Chloe  (Grandy)  Hitchcock,  was  born  in 
Claremont,  N.  H.,  Aug.  27,  1832.  At  the  age  of  sixteen  he  entered 
Black  River  Academy,  at  Ludlow,  Vt.  One  of  his  instructors  there, 
by  whom  he  was  influenced,  was  the  late  Chief  Justice  of  Iowa,  Austin 
Adams,  LL.  D.,  who  had  just  graduated  from  Dartmouth  College. 
He  fitted  for  Dartmouth,  but  instead  of  entering  he  accepted  a  posi- 
tion as  instructor  in  Black  River  Academy.  In  1852  his  eyes  failing 
he  gave  up  study,  and  spent  the  winter  in  New  Orleans  in  the  office 
of  the  St.  Charles  Hotel.  In  1866  his  health  failing,  he  retired  from 
business  and  traveled  extensively  abroad  where  he  revived  his  interest 
and  studies  in  ancient  art  in  Egypt,  Syria,  Cyprus,  Greece  and  Italy. 
He  located  in  Hanover,  N.  H.,  in  1871.  Early  the  next  year  he 
announced  to  the  world  the  extensive  discoveries  of  General  di  Ces- 
nola  in  Cyprus,  and  read  papers  on  that  subject  before  the  learned 
societies  of  New  York  and  also  before  the  Faculty  and  students  of 
Dartmouth  College.  A  paper  of  his  on  this  subject  was  published 
in  Harper's  Magazine  of  that  year,  which  attracted  much  attention 
abroad.  During  the  same  year  the  degree  of  Master  of  Arts  was 
conferred  upon  Mr.  Hitchcock  by  Dartmouth,  and,  on  motion  of  the 
venerable  and  eminent  Samuel  Birch,  LL.  D.,  President  of  the  British 
Society  of  Biblical  Archaeology,  he  was  made  a  member  of  that 
society.  In  1876  he  was  appointed  by  the  Governor  a  Trustee  of 
the  State  College ;  two  years  later  he  was  elected  a  Trustee  of 
Dartmouth  College.  In  1877  he  represented  Hanover  in  the  State 
Legislature.  In  1879  he  resumed  his  connection  with  the  Fifth 
Avenue  Hotel.  Scarcely  was  Commencement  over  in  1889,  when  the 
old  college  church  was  torn  up  for  repairs,  which  transformed  its 
interior  from  a  bare,  unattractive  room  to  one  far  handsomer  than 
could  possibly  have  been  built  new  for  any  moderate   sum,  and  the

historic  building  is  preserved.  During  the  autumn  of  the  same  year 
was  laid  the  foundation  for  a  hospital  which  is  the  finest  building  in 
town,  and  as  well  as  being  of  immense  value  to  the  Medical  College 
is  a  boon  to  the  people  in  this  vicinity.  The  burden  of  the  expen- 
sive repairs  on  the  church  was  almost  wholly  borne  by  the  Hon. 
Hiram  Hitchcock,  and  the  hospital,  now  completed  and  opened,  is 
entirely  his  gift.  Mr.  Hitchcock  has  filled  many  positions  of  honor 
and  trust  during  his  active  career.  A  life  member  of  the  American 
Geographical  Society,  the  New  York  Historical  Society  and  the  New 
England  Society  of  New  York,  a  member  of  the  Dartmouth  Scientific 
Association,  the  New  York  Academy  of  Sciences,  and  the  New  York 
Chamber  of  Commerce.  He  was  also  President  of  the  Nicaragua 
Canal  Association,  which  obtained  the  concessions  from  Nicaragua 
and  Costa  Rica,  under  which  the  canal  will  be  constructed  ;  and  on 
the  organization  of  the  Maritime  Canal  Company  of  Nicaragua  under 
the  charters  of  the  United  States  and  of  the  State  of  Vermont,  he 
was  elected  its  President  which  office  he  still  holds.  He  m.  Oct.  21,

John2  Hitchcock  (Matthias1)  sou  of  Matthias  Hitchcock  of  New 
Haven,  Conn.,  was  probably  born  in  New  Haven,  for  his  father  was 
at  New  Haven  as  early  as  June,  1639,  at  which  time  Matthias  Hitch- 
cock was  one  of  the  original  signers  of  the  '*  foundamental  agree- 
ment" of  the  New  Haven  colony.  John  Hitchcock  was  one  of  the 
original  proprietors  of  Wallingford,  Conn.,  which  town  was  founded 
in  1670.  He  married  1st,  Jan.  18,  1670,  Abigail  Merriman,  born 
April  18,  1654,  daughter  of  Capt.  Nathaniel  Merriman,  who  was 
one  of  the  first  settlers  of  Wallingford.  John  Hitchcock's  first  three 
children  were  born  in  New  Haven,  1671  to  1674  ;  and  he  removed  to  Wal- 
lingford in  1676.  He  calls  himself  "  landowner,  yeoman  or  planter." 
He  married  2d,  Mary.  The  inventory  of  his  estate  shows  that  he 
owned  some  183  acres  in  different  lots  and  that  his  whole  property 
amounted  to  £302.  In  the  settlement  of  the  estate  the  widow  is 
called  Mary,  and  on  Aug.  12,  1717,  she  appears  as  "Mary  Clark, 
alias  Hitchcock."  In  the  will  Nathaniel  is  called  the  eldest  son. 
No  mention  is  made  in  the  division  of  property  of  Samuel,  Elizabeth 
or  Hannah,  and  they  may  have  died  ;  but  apparently  Elizabeth  had 
married  Daniel  Loynesor  Lines, andHannah,  John  Lines  his  brother  ; 
for  Wallingford  records  give,  first,  Sept.  29,  1708,  a  deed  of  land  of 
John  Hitchcock  to  his  son-in-law,  Daniel  Loynes,  and  later  John 
Loyues  deeds  land  to  his  father-in-law  John  Hitchcock,  part  of  which 
came  to  said  John  Loynes  from  his  brother  Daniel  Loynes,  and  still 
later  Feb.  10,  1709,  John  Hitchcock  gives  a  piece  of  land  to  his 
son-in-law  Daniel  Lines.  It  also  appears  that  the  widow  of  John 
Lines  was  "  Hannah."  John  Hitchcock  died  July  6,  1716.  His 
widow  Mary  married  April  18,  1717,  Samuel  Clark. 

THEIR   CHILDREN    WERE  : 

i.     A  Daughter3,  b.  Oct.  1,  1671,  at  New  Haven, 
ii.     Samuel,  b.  1672,  at  New  Haven;  d.  young.

Johx3  Hitchcock  (John,2  Matthias1)  son  of  John  and  Abigail 
(Merriman)  Hitchcock,  was  born  in  Walliugford,  Conn.,  Oct.  16, 
1685.  He  married  1st,  Nov.  21,  1712,  Marlow  Munson,  who  became 
the  mother  of  ten  of  his  children.  In  New  Haven  probate  records 
he  is  sometimes  called  John  Hitchcock  of  Walliugford,  and  some- 
times of  New  Haven.  Legal  documents  also  call  him  "  John 
Hitchcock  of  Cheshire  "  where  three  of  Marlow  (Munson)  Hitch- 
cock's children  were  born.  She  died  July  1,  1739.  He  married  2d,

his  will  he  left  a  part  of  his  property  to  his  "  wife  Elizabeth  so  long 
as  she  remains  my  widow."  She  remained  his  widow  for  almost 
twenty-eight  years,  as  she  died  May  4,  1788.  In  1789,  May  18th, 
right  was  granted  to  her  son  Amos4  Hitchcock  to  administer  on  the 
unadministered  estate  of  John3  Hitchcock  of  Cheshire.  He  had 
represented,  "  The  widow  Elizabeth  is  now  dead  and  her  dower  in 
said  estate  has  not  been  divided,  and  many  of  the  heirs  are  poor  and 
not  able  to  bear  the  expense  of  dividing,  and  others  are  in  distant 
parts  of  the  world,"  and  had  requested  "  liberty  to  sell  so  much  of 
the  dower  as  shall  pay  the   cost  of  dividing  the   same."     The  court

viously bought  the  rights  of  Peter,  John  and  Dan  in  said  dower.

Amasa5  Hitchcock  (Peter*,  John'3,  John2,  Matthias1)  son  of 
Peter  and  Hannah  (Smith)  Hitchcock,  was  born  Oct.  3,  1739,  in 
Cheshire,  Conn.  He  married,  Oct.  2,  1765,  Sarah  Bradley  of  Mt. 
Carmel,  Conn.,  born  in  Feb.,  1745.  He  was  a  farmer;  also  a  ser- 
geant in  the  army  in  the  year  17G0,  2d  Lieutenant  177G  and  1777,  and 
a  pensioner.  Amasa  Hitchcock  was  87  when  he  died,  and  his  grand- 
son Horace  Gay  lord  Hitchcock  of  Cleveland,  Ohio,  gives  this  picture 
of  him  as  he  appeared  when  about  85.  "I  was  making  dirt  ovens 
and  looking  down  the  street  saw  my  grandfather  coming.  He  sat 
straight  as  an  arrow,  in  a  two-wheeled  carriage  without  a  top,  hold- 
ing tight  reins  over  a  white  horse  that  went  like  the  wind.  He  pulled 
up  and  jumped  out  like  a  boy.  He  wore  a  low  crowned  hat  with  a 
rounded  top  and  a  broad  brim  turned  up  behind,  and  curled  in  at  the 
sides,  and  a  long  coat  reached  below  his  knees,  and  buttoned  up  in 
front  to  the  throat,  with  a  standing  collar.  His  hair  was  as  white  as 
snow  and  fell  down  his  back  in  curls.  He  walked  up  to  me  and 
shook  hands.  Then  he  put  his  hand  into  his  side  pocket,  and  took 
out  a  little  leather  bag,  and  untwisting  the  top,  poked  his  forefinger 
round  a  heap  of  great  silver  pieces  and  handed  me  a  ninepence." 
He  died  Feb.  27,  1827.

Major  Lyman5  Hitchcock  (Jotham*,  John3,  John2,  Matthias1)  son 
of  Jotham  and  Mary  (Hull)  Hitchcock,  was  born  March  15,  1746 — 7, 
in  Cheshire,  Conn.  He  appears  to  have  lived  for  a  time  in  New 
Haven,  Conn.,  for  there  is  record  of  Lyman  Hitchcock  of  New 
Haven  selling  Sept.  6,  1774,  a  part  of  his  father's  land  in  North 
Cheshire.  He  was  2d  Lieut,  of  Elnore's  Conn.  State  Regiment  from 
April  15,  1776  to  April,  1777.  By  Albany,  N.  Y.  records,  Oct., 
1781,  it  appears  that  he  had  been  residing  there  since  1779  "  in  part- 
nership in  trade  "  with  Douglas  &  Crane,  and  that  he  then  had  no 
family.  He  was  appointed  Major  of  N.  Y.  Levies  for  service  on  the 
frontier,  about  July  1 ,  1780,  for  eight  months,  in  the  pay  of  Congress, 
and  hence  subsequently  entitled  to  a  pension.  He  married  Sept.  14, 
1785,  Sophia  Cabot,  daughter  of  Rev.  Marston  Cabot  of  Thompson, 
then  North  society  of  Killiugly,  Conn.,  who  was  born  July  2,  1756. 
In  March,  1784,  he  sent  petition  to  the  Vermont  Council  and  in  1788 
became  first  town  clerk  of  Cabot,  Vt.,  a  town  bought  in  1781  by 
sixty-five  persons  and  named  Cabot  after  his  wife.  In  1790  he  was 
the  first  Justice  and  in  1793  delegate  to  the  Vermont  Constitutional 
Convention.  He  died  in  New  York  State,  town  unknown,  Feb.  15, 
1819.     His  widow  died  Nov.  28,  1825.

Silas11  Hitchcock  (Amasa5,  Peter*,  John3,  John'2,  Matthias1)  son

Hitchcock,  was  bom  in  Cheshire,  Conn.,  Oct.  19,  1781.  He  grad- 
uated at  Yale  in  1801  and  was  admitted  to  the  bar  in  1804.  He 
married  in  Cheshire,  Dec.  12,  1805,  Nabby5  Cook,  born  July  10, 
1784,  youngest  child  of  Elam4  and  Abigail  (Hall)  Cook,  son  of 
Ephraim3  and  Lydia  (Doolittle)  Cook,  son  of  Samuel2  Cook,  who 
came  to  New  Haven,  Conn.,  in  1G63,  and  removed  to  Wallingford, 
Conn,  in  1G70.  He  was  son  of  Henry1  Cook  who  was  at  Plymouth, 
Mass.  before  1640.  He  was  from  Kent,  England.  In  1806,  Peter 
Hitchcock  emigrated  to  Burton,  Ohio,  in  the  original  county  of 
Geauga,  one  of  the  two  counties  into  which  the  entire  Western 
Reserve,  with  a  population  not  exceeding  5  or  6000,  was  then  divided. 
His  family  was  the  fourth  or  fifth  which  settled  in  that  township. 
He  was  a  member  of  the  Ohio  Legislature  1810—1812,  state  senator 
1812—16;  in  1814  commissioned  Lieut.  Col.,  1st  Reg.,  4th  Brig., 
4th  Division,  Ohio  Militia.  In  1815  he  was  tendered  by  Gov.  Thos. 
W'orthington  a  commission  as  Judge  of  the  Supreme  court  of  Ohio, 
which  position  he  declined.  In  1816  he  was  commissioned  Major 
Gen.,  4th  Division,  Ohio  Militia.  He  was  member  of  U.  S.  con- 
gress, 1817—1819;  Judge  of  the  Supreme  court  of  Ohio  from

one  years  was  Chief  Justice.  In  1850  he  was  chosen  member  of  the 
convention  to  form  the  new  constitution  of  the  state  of  Ohio.  He 
was  the  embodiment  of  common  sense  and  in  "The  Reports"  his 
decisions  are  regarded  with  high  respect.  Judge  Hitchcock  exhibited 
in  his  judicial  course  a  breadth  far  beyond  the  too  technical  learning 
of  the  times.  On  many  subjects,  as  for  instance  corporate  powers, 
ultra  vires,  usury  and  technical  objections  to  legal  rights,  his  opinions 
have  a  force   and   spirit  much  more  iu   accord  with  the  present  day

of  the  states  at  that  time.  His  decisions  have  had  a  strong  and 
happy  influence  upon  the  future  law  of  Ohio,  and  reading  them  con- 
vince one  that  he  was  not  only  an  able  lawyer  but  an  able  jurist.  He 
was  a  good  man  and  on  the  roll  of  those  in  the  generation  just  passed 
away  who  conferred  honor  on  Ohio.  He  died  March  4,  1854,  at  the

Pees.  Henry  Lawrence7  Hitchcock,  D.  D.,  (Peter® ,  Valentine5, 
Peter4,  John3,  John2,  Matthias1)  son  of  Chief  Justice  Peter  and 
Nabby  (Cook)  Hitchcock,  was  born  in  Burton,  Ohio,  Oct.  31,  1813. 
He  prepared  for  college  at  Burton  academy,  graduated  at  Yale  1832, 
taught  at  Burton  academy  two  years,  partly  taught  and  partly  studied 
theology  a  third  year,  entered  Lane  seminary  at  Cincinnati,  O.,  in 
183;">,  and  studied  two  years  under  Dr.  Lyman  Beecher,  was  licensed 
at  Burton,  1837,  and  ordained  and  installed,  that  year,  pastor  over  the 
Congregational  church  in  Morgan,  O.  He  was  married  Dec.  20,  1837 
to  Clarissa  Mary  Sophia  Ford,  eldest  child  of  Stephen  and  Eunice 
(Brooks)  Ford,  born  Aug.  20,  1818,  at  Burton.  Her  mother  was 
daughter  of  Gideon  and  Clara  (Pond)  Brooks  of  Cheshire,  Conn. 
Her  father  Stephen  Ford  was  second  child  of  John  and  Esther 
(Cook)  Ford,  early  settlers  of  Burton,  O.,  from  Cheshire,  Conn. 
Esther  Cook  was  daughter  of  Elam  and  Abigail  (Hall)  Cook,  men- 
tioned under  No.  62.  In  1840  Mr.  Hitchcock  was  called  to  the 
recently  organized  Second  Presbyterian  Church  of  Columbus.  0. 
He  labored  with  such  ardor  and  success  that  the  prospered  church 
found  it  must  colonize  and  he  helped  in  building  a  church  and  secur- 
ing a  minister  for  the  colony.  He  was  called  the  leading  minister 
of  Central  Ohio  for  that  period. 

May  31,  1855,  he  was  elected  President  of  Western  Reserve  Col- 
lege ;  he  accepted  July  10th  and  was  inaugurated  at  Commencement, 
July  12th.  It  was  a  time  in  the  college  history  of  great  difficulty  and 
discouragement,  but  with  energy  and  patience  he  took  up  the  work 
and  met  with  success.  He  maintained  Ihe  high  standard,  removed 
all  encumbrances,  added  largely  to  the  endowment,  and  for  fifteen 
years  labored  as  President,  Professor,  Pastor  and  Financial  Agent. 
He  was  often  called  to  serve  surrounding  towns. 

Worn  out,  he  was  obliged  to  lay  aside  work  and  Oct.  8,  1867,  with 
Mrs.  Hitchcock  he  started  for  Europe.  They  spent  the  winter  in 
South  France  and  touring  in  Italy  and  England.  Returning  in  June, 
1868,  he  resumed  work,  but  the  old  vigor  was  with  difficulty  main- 
tained and  in  1871,  he  resigned  the  presidency,  remaining  on  the 
faculty  as  Instructor  and  Pastor.  On  a  Sabbath  afternoon,  July  6, 
1873,  after  a  short  illness  he  died  and  was  buried  in  Hudson,  O., 
July  8.  Said  President  Cutler  in  his  funeral  address:  "He  had 
wonderful  patience,  trust,  contentment  in  doing  duty.     .     .     .     He

was  always  ready  for  service,  no  matter  bow  bumble  tbe  work,  bow 
bard,  bow  unpopular.  Whenever  be  saw  duty,  nothing  could  deter 
bim  from  walking  straight  forward  in  tbe  path  of  it.  He  was  amaz- 
ingly self-sacrificing."  Tbe  Committee  of  Cleveland  Presbytery 
spoke  of  bim  as  of  a  modest  and  self-distrustful  spirit,  yet  independ- 
ent in  thought  and  firm  in  action. 

Soon  after  his  death  Mrs.  Hitchcock  went  to  Michigan  City,  Ind. 
and  lived  with  her  oldest  son  until  her  death  Sept.  20,  1878.  She 
was  buried  in  Hudson,  O.,  Sept.  24,  by  the  side  of  her  husband  and

uating like  his  two  brothers  at  Yale.  He  occupied  the  homestead 
farm  and  became  prominent  in  political  and  legislative  life.  He 
became  speaker  of  the  Ohio  House  of  Kepresentatives  and  was  so 
long  a  member  that  he  was  called  "  Father  of  the  House."  In  1846  he 
was  elected  Justice  of  the  Peace  and  held  that  office  for  eighteen 
consecutive  years  and  was  re-elected  in  1883.  He  served  in  the  leg-

an  independent  military  company  in  Burton  and  held  the  position  for 
ten  years.  In  1862  he  helped  organize  the  Geauga  Blues  and  was  com- 
missioned Capt.  by  Gov.  Tod.  In  1864  this  company  was  called  into

proprietor  of  the  Geauga  Leader  and  under  his  administration  the 
paper  achieved  a  popularity  and  influence  it  never  had  before. 

The  Cleveland  Leader  called  him  "  one  of  the  ablest  parliamenta- 
rians and  shrewdest  debaters  that  ever  sat  in  the  Gen.  Assembly." 
He  was  often  on  important  committees  and  members  of  the  opposite 
paity  credited  him  with  doing  more  to  serve  the  interests  of  the 
state  upon  questions  of  finance  and  taxation  than  any  other  member 
of  the  House.  In  1873  lie  was  a  member  of  the  constitutional  con- 
vention which  met  at  Cincinnati.  From  boyhood  he  was  an  active 
member  of  the  Congregational  church  and  through  all  the  changes

Luke  Hitchcock  took  freeman's  oath  in  New  Haven  in  company  with 
Edward  HitchcockJuly  1,  1644.  The  date  of  his  removal  to  Wethers- 
field  is  not  known  but  he  was  a  member  of  the  j n ry  at  a  court  held  in 
Hartford  June  5,  1646,  and  March  "2,  1647.  As  New  Haven  was  not 
under  the  government  of  Conn,  at  that  time  he  was  probably  living 
in  Wethersfield  in  1646.  Luke  lived  in  the  center  of  the  village. 
The  house  now  standing  on  the  place  was  built  by  Silas  Dean  some 
time  before  the  Revolutionary  war.  He  was  by  trade  a  shoemaker; 
a  Capt.  at  Crown  Point  in  1645:  and  selectman  at  "Wethersfield  in 
1653  and  1656.  There  are  on  Wethersfield  records  fourteen  tracts 
of  land  recorded  as  belonging  to  Luke  Hitchcock.  The  following  is 
a  sample  of  these  records.  "  Land  of  Luke  Hitchcock  of  Wethers- 
field, Conn.,  on  Connecticut  river,  one  piece  whereon  his  barn  now 
Btandeth,  containing  one  and  one  half  acres  more  or  less.  The  end 
abuting  on  rose  lane  South  East  &  on  New  Street  &  Cove." 

None  of  these  deeds  are  dated.  Some  of  it  was  bought  of  Will 
Gibbous  of  Hartford.  One  tract  is  recorded  in  this  way  :  ••Another 
tract  of  land  which  was  given  to  his  sou  John  Hitchcock  by  Will 
Gibbons  containing  nine  acres.*'  After  Luke's  death  in  1659,  this 
nine  acres  is  recorded  in  John's  name  having  been  given  him  by  his 
Uncle  Gibbons.  The  following  account  of  Luke  was  given  iu  Oct.. 
1801,  by  his  great-grandson  Aaron  Hitchcock  of  Suflield,  Conn. 
11  Luke  Hitchcock  left  the  land  of  his  nativity  about  the  middle  of 
the  17th  century,  as  near  as  could  be  determined.  He  had  received' 
a  large  tract  of  land  lying  in  the  eastern  part  of  New  England  and 
came  out  with  a  view  of  taking  possession  of  the  same,  when  he 
arrived  he  found  it  inhabited  by  numerous  hordes  of  natives  deter- 
mined to  resist  all  encroachments  of  the  English.  In  this  situation 
he  determined  to  abandon  the  enterprise  and  settled  in  Wethersfield. 
He  was  peculiarly  fortunate  in  cultivating  the  friendship  of  the 
Indians,  who  in  testimou}'  of  their  attachment  to  him  gave  him  a  deed 
of  the  town  of  Farmingtou.  This  deed  was  a  clear  and  valid  title 
to  the  laud  but  was  so  little  thought  of  that  it  was  destroyed  by  his 
wife,  who  used  it  to  cover  a  pie  in  the  oven."  In  1659  Luke  signed 
an  engagement  to  remove  to  Hadley  but  died  the  same  year.  Nov.  1 , 
1659.  His  will  which  was  admitted  to  Probate  Nov.  28,  1659  was  as 
follows  : 

Oct.   17th,  1659. 

I,  Luke  Hitchcock,  being  at  present  though  in  some  weakness  of

when  I  am  gone  and  that  I  may  Free  myself  before  T  die  1  do  there- 
fore leave  this  testimony  upon  record  as  my  hist  will  and  testament. 

First  I  do  profess  my  faith  &  hopes  to  be  in  the  free  grace  alone 
of  God  in  Jesus  Christ  whose  I  am  and  to  whom  I  have  forever 
given  up  myself  both  soul  and  body,  being  fully  persuaded  of  his 
unchangeable  love  and  good  will  both  in  life  and  death.  And  then 
for  my  outward  estate  I  dispose  of  the  same  as  follows. 

First  I  do  therefore  bequeath  and  give  unto  my  wife  Elizabeth  the 
full  power  and  disposal  of  all  that  estate  which  God  has  given  me  in 
houses,  lauds,  cattle  and  goods  whatsoever  within  doors  and  without 
Provided  that  in  case  she  marry  again  that  she  betake  herself  to  the 
thirds  of  my  lands  and  houses  and  that  she  give  unto  my  son  John 
the  house  I  now  dwell  in  with  the  outhouses  thereunto  belonging  with 
the  home  lot  and  half  in  quantity  of  the  lot  or  pease  of  land  that  I 
lately  bought  of  W.  Chester,  the  homeward  pease,  and,  to  my  son

j  Samuel3  Hitchcock  (John2,  Luke1)  son  of  Dea.  John  and  Han- 
nah (Chapin)  Hitchcock,  was  born  in  Springfield,  Mass.,  Aug.  21, 
1672.  He  resided  in  New  Milford,  Conn.  He  married  Sarah  Weller 
who  was  born  in  Deerfield,  Mass.,  April  15,  1678.  She  was  the

John4  Hitchcock  (John3,  John'2.  L"kel)  son  of  Ensign  John  and 
Mary  (Rail)  Hitchcock,  was  born  in  Springfield,  Mass.,  Dec.  14, 
1692,  and  resided  there.  He  married.  Aug.  1,  1717.  Abigail  Steb- 
bins,  daughter  of  Samuel  and  Joanna  (Lamb)  Stebbins,  who  was 
born  Nov.- 30,  1695. 

Both  his  grandfathers,  Dea.  John2  Hitchcock  and  Samuel  Ball  were 
in  the  fight  with  the  Indians  at  Turners  Falls,  May  l<s.  1676,  and  the 
General  Court  granted  "  to  the  survivors  of  the  fight  &  the  descend- 
ants of  the  others  "  a  township  which  was  called  in  honor  of  the 
fight  Fall  Town,  afterwards  incorporated  as  Bernardston.  John4 
Hitchcock  received  his  grandfather  Ball's  share.  (See  Holland's 
History  Western  Mass.)  The  township  was  about  six  miles  square 
and  had  at  that  time  not  one  inhabitant. 

John4  Hitchcock  appears  to  have  been  one  of  the  one  hundred  and 
twenty-five  persons  for  whom  the  town  of  Springfield  laid  out  the 
east  end  of  their  town — four  miles  wide  east  and  west,  and  twelve 
miles  long  north  and  south, — in  three  divisions,  each  person  to  have

a  lot  in  each  division.  The  widest  lot  Pynchon's  one  hundred  and 
thirty  rods  wide  and  four  miles  long  :  the  narrowest  being  eight  feet. 
They  called  a  rod  sixteen  feet. 

Mention  is  made  in  his  will  which  was  signed  March  14,  1774,  and 
presented  to  the  Probate  court  "First  Tuesday  in  October  being 
seventh  day  of  s'd  month  1777,"  of  all  his  children  except  Miriam  and 
Reuben.  He  gave  to  his  son  John  all  his  land  at  Wilbraham,  "  being 
my  lot  in  ye  outward  commons  on  the  east  side  of  the  Great  river, 
being  about  thirty  rods  in  breadth  and  four  miles  in  length."  His

years  afterward,  in  1775,  he  compelled  them  to  pay  it  with  interest. 
He  was  selectman  of  Brimfield  three  years.  He  was  by  trade  a  shoe- 
maker, and  his  lapstone  and  pincers  are  still  preserved.  Mis  house, 
which  he  raised  himself,  was  on  or  near  the  site  afterwards  used  by 
Lemuel  Allen.  He  took  down  the  frame  and  built  on  the  spot  now 
occupied  by  Pliny  F.  Spaulding.  This  house  was  removed  and  is 
north  of  the  Hitchcock  Free  School,  and  now  occupied  by  Lyman 
Webster.     He  died  March  12,  1799.

John5  Hitchcock  (John4',  John3,  John2,  Luke1)  son  of  John  and 
Abigail  (Stebbins)  Hitchcock,  was  born  in  Springfield,  Mass.,  April 
21,  1722.  He  married  in  May,  1743,  Thankful  Burt,  bom  in  1724, 
and  both  were  admitted  to  the  church  in  Wilbraham,  Mass.  from 
Springfield  church  by  letter  Nov.  18,  1744.  He  was  Lieutenant  in 
Capt.  James  Warriner's  Company  at  the  time  of  the  Lexiugton  alarm 
and  was  at  Lexiugton  and  also  afc  Ticonderoga  and  on  pay  roll  of 
Capt.  Cadwell's  Co.,  Dec.  25,  1776.  He  was  the  first  Deacon  of  the 
South  Parish  church  Wilbraham.  He  was  a  man  of  great  physical 
strength.  We  quote  the  following  sketch:  "Lieut.  Hitchcock  was 
an  athlete  as  well  as  a  deacon  and  a  lieutenant.  Had  he  lived  in 
Greece  he  would  have  taken  the  highest  prizes  at  the  Olympic  and 
Isthmian  games.  He  was  a  man  of  prodigious  muscular  strength, 
agility  and  endurance.  A  man  stopped  by  the  field  where  he  was  at 
work  and  boasted  of  the  speed  of  the  horse  he  was  riding.  The 
Deacon  told  him  that  he  could  go  to  Springfield  quicker  than  a  horse. 
The  man  resolutely  denied  it.  The  Deacon  gave  a  challenge.  It  was 
accepted  and  the  Deacon  won.  He  ran  ten  miles,  beating  the  horse. 
He  would  lift  a  load  of  hay,  such  loads  as  were  drawn  then  (in  two 
wheeled  carts)  by  getting  under  the  axletree  of  the  cart,  and  taking 
it  on  his  shoulders  in  a  stooping  posture.  He  would  turn  a  cart  over 
by  taking  one  end  of  the  axletree  with  one  hand. 

When  he  was  seventy  years  old,  he  came  in  to  dinner  and  as  usual, 
hung  his  hat  on  its  nail  on  the  summer."  (A  "  summer  "  is  a  beam 
in  the  middle  of  a  ceiling,  supporting  the  floor  above,  and  seen 
exposed  in  some  old  houses.)      "  He  said  to  his  wife,  '  I  am  seventy 


FAMILY    OF    JOHN.  231 

years  old  today  ;  you  remember  that  "when  we  were  first  married  I 
used  to  amuse  you  by  taking  my  hat  down  with  my  toes.  I  wonder 
if  I  could  do  it  now.'  He  sprang  from  the  floor,  caught  the  hat  off 
with  his  toes,  struck  on  his  feet  like  a  cat,  hung  up  his  hat  again, 
turned  to  the  table,  asked  a  blessing  and  feasted. 

He  had  double  teeth  in  front.  When  he  loaded  grain  in  a  cart,  he 
would  seize  a  bag  with  his  teeth,  and  giving  it  a  swing,  throw  it  into 
the  cart  with  the  aid  of  a  push  with  his  knee.  He  would  hold  a  ten- 
penny  nail  in  his  teeth,  and  break  it  off  with  his  fingers.  When  he 
died  all  his  teeth  were  sound.  He  said  jocosely,  that  he  did  not  know 
a  man  he  could  not  whip — or  run  aicay  from."  His  wife  Thankful 
died,  July  17,  1800.     He  died  Oct.  11,  1807.

Margaret5  Hitchcock  (Samuel4',  John3,  John2,  Luke1)  daughter 
of  Samuel  and  Ruth  (Stebbins)  Hitchcock,  was  born  in  Westfield, 
Mass.,  May  25,  1741.  She  married  in  Westfield,  in  1762,  Richard2 
Falley,  (Richard1)  who  was  born  Jan.  81,  1740,  at  Georgius  River 
in  the  Province  of  Maine. 

"Her  husband's  father  was  a  native  of  the  Isle  of  Guernsey, 
France.  When  he  was  eight  years  of  age  a  French  man  of  war 
touched  at  the  island,  and  a  whole  school,  himself  included,  was 
invited  on  board  to  take  dinner  in  the  cabin.  When  they  came  on 
deck  the  ship  was  out  at  sea,  and  the  children  were  taken  to  Nova 
Scotia,  and  left  there,  to  settle  that  new  country. 

Her  husband,  Richard  Falley,  Jr.,  when  sixteen  years  old  became 
a  soldier  and  served  in  the  French  and  Indian  war.  At  the  capture 
of  Fort  Edward,  N.  Y.,  he  was  made  a  prisoner  by  the  Indians.  He 
was  adopted  by  one  of  the  chiefs,  taken  to  Montreal  and  finally 
bought  by  a  lady  for  sixteen  gallons  of  rum.  By  her  he  was  sent 
home  to  Westfield,  Mass.  There  he  subsequently  married  Margaret 
Hitchcock,  who  was  called  '  a  woman  of  uncommon  nerve  and 
energy.'  She  was  one  of  the  foremothers  of  Pres.  Grover  Cleve- 
land. We  next  hear  of  her  husband  Richard  Falley  as  commanding 
a  company  at  the  battle  of  Bunker  Hill,  and  of  her  eldest  son,  Fred- 
erick, afterwards  a  Major,  as  his  father's  drummer  ;  and  he  drummed 
all  through  the  fight. 

Immediately  after  the  battle  of  Bunker  Hill,  Richard  Falley  was 
appointed  superintendent  of  the  Armory  at  Springfield,  Mass.  He 
held  this  position  till  after  the  war.  Springfield  muskets  with  '  R. 
Falley '  on  the  locks  were  well  known  in  those  days  and  were  esteemed 
good  shooters  by  marksmen  and  hunters.  He  was  a  powerful  man, 
and  it  is  stated  by  a  grandson,  Dr.  I.  W.  Falley,  now  resident  in 
Hillsdale,  Mich.,  he  had  heard  his  father  say  he  had  often  seen  him 
take  a  barrel  of  cider  and  lift  it  over  the  side  of  a  cart  as  one  would 
a  small  keg." 

Richard2  Falley  died  at  Westfield,  Mass.,  Sept.  3,  1808.  His 
widow,  Margaret  (Hitchcock)  Falley,  died  in  Volney  (now  Fulton), 
N.  Y.,  Feb.  11,  or  18,  1820.  Thechildrenof  Margaret  (Hitchcock) 
Falley  were  :

Apollos5  Hitchcock  (Aaron4',  Luke3 ,  John2 ,  Luke1)  son  of  Capt. 
Aaron  and  Experience  (King)  Hitchcock,  wasborn  in  Suffield,  Conn., 
March  8,  1759.  He  married,  in  Nov.,  1781,  KoxanaKing,  daughter 
of  Wm.  King  of  Suffield,  Conn.,  born  Aug.  13,  1762,  who  died  Sept. 
14,  1830.  He  was  a  surveyor  and  one  of  the  first  settlers  of  Cheek- 
towaga,  N.  Y.  in  1808.  "  Apollos,  son  of  Aaron,  lived  with  his 
father  in  Suffield  for  ten  years  after  his  marriage  ;  but  becoming  dis- 
contented he  pursuaded  his  brother-in-law,  Alexander  King,  to  take 
his  place  in  the  old  homestead.  Leaving  his  family  in  Suffield  he 
went  to  Charleston,  S.  C,  after  indigo  which  he  sold  to  pedlars.  He 
also  speculated  in  land.  Acquiring  a  taste  for  travel  he  finally  went 
to  Europe  with  a  cargo  of  indigo,  which  was  wrecked.  The  loss  was 
so  great  as  to  seriously  involve  him  and  make  it  necessary  for  him  to 
go  again  to  Europe,  where  he  remained  three  years.  During  this 
time  he  travelled  in  France  and  England  and  while  there  found  traces 
which  led  him  to  believe  that  the  Hitchcock  family  originally  came 
from  Wales.

He  then  settled  in  Hartford,  Conn.,  and  kept  tavern  until  1806. 
He  then  moved  to  Schenectady  where  he  kept  a  public  house  about 
two  years  and  then  went  to  Buffalo  which  at  this  time  contained  only 
twenty  houses,  mostly  log  cabins.  For  two  years  he  lived  in  Buffalo 
and  then  moved  to  the  farm  in  Cheektowaga  which  is  now  in  possess- 
ion of  the  family.  It  was  then  an  almost  unbroken  wilderness,  his 
settlement  being  the  first  east  of  Buffalo.  Here  he  built  a  distillery 
and  saw  mill  ;  and  later,  a  grist  mill.  The  family  were  called  Cheek- 
taw  as  by  the  Indians,  from  the  little  clearing  in  which  they  built  their 
house  abounding  in  wild  plums  and  an  endless  variety  of  wild  flowers. 
The  town  was  afterward  named  Cheektowaga,  sign  if  ying  the  place  of 
fruit  and  flowers."'

Judge  Samuel5  Hitchcock  (NoaJf1,  Nathaniel5,  John2,  Luke1) 
son  of  Noah  and  Mary  (Burt)  Hitchcock,  was  born  in  Brimfield, 
Mass.,  March  23,  1755.  He  graduated  at  Harvard  in  1777;  and 
became  a  lawyer.     He  married  May  26,  1789,  Lucy  Caroline  Allen, 


FAMILY    OF    JOHN.  '249 

second  daughter  of  Col.  Ethan  Allen.  This  marriage  was  the  first 
one  put  upon  Burlington  town  records.  He  resided  in  Burlington. 
Vt..  until  1794  when  he  removed  to  Vergeunes  where  he  lived  until 
181  6  when  he  returned  to  Burlington.  Chapter  10,  p.  142  of  H.  P. 
Smith's  "  History  of  Addison  County,  Vermont,"  gives  the  following 
sketch  of  Judge  Samuel  Hitchcock  : 

"  Hon.  Samuel  Hitchcock,  the  fourth  son  of  Noah  and  Mary  Hitch- 
cock, and  grandson  of  David  Hitchcock,  one  of  the  original  settlers 
of  Brimfield,  Hampshire  County.  Mass..  was  born  in  Brimfield,  March 
23,  1755.     He  fitted  for  college  with  Rev.  James  Bridgham,  a  grad- 
uate   of  Harvard    University    in    1726.  *  *  *         He  was 
graduated  at  Harvard  University  in  1777.     After  his  graduation  he 
read  law  at  Brookfield,  Worcester  County.  Mass..  with  the  late  Hon. 
dedediah  Foster,  and  was,  probably,  admitted  to  the  practice  of  the 
law  at  Worcester.     About  1786  Samuel  Hitchcock  removed  to  Bur- 
lington,  Vt..   where   he  commenced  the   practice  of  his  profession. 
He  was  the  first  State's  attorney  appointed  in  Chittenden  County  and 
held  the  office  from  1787  to  1  790  inclusive.     He  represented  the  town 
from  1789  to  1793  inclusive.     He  was  a  member  of  the  convention 
of  delegates  of  the  people  of  the  State  of  Vermont,  held  at  Benning- 
ton Jan.  10,  1791,  to  ratify   the  constitution  of  the  United   States. 
which   had    been   submitted   by  an  act  of  the  Vermont  Legislature 
passed  Oct.  27,  1790.     The  charter  of  the  University  of  Vermont, 
which  was  granted  by  the  General  Assembly,  Nov.  3,  1791,  is  said  to 
have  been  drafted  by  Samuel  Hitchcock,  while  the  main  features  of 
it  were  furnished   by   another  alumnus  of  Harvard   University,    the 
Rev.  Samuel  Williams,  D.  D.,  of  Rutland.     Samuel  Hitchcock  was 
elected  one  of  the  trustees  from  the  start  and  continued  to  hold  that 
office  until  his  death.     He  was   secretary  of  the   corporation  from 
1 7 •. » 1  to  1800,  when  he  was  succeeded  by  the  Rev.  Daniel  Clark  Saun- 
ders, D.  D..  president  of  the  University.     Dr.  Wheeler,  in  his  histor- 
ical discourse,  says  that  the  creative  mind  of  Dr.   Samuel   Williams 
and  the  reflective  and  profound  mind  of  Judge  Hitchcock  had  worked 
for  the  University  of  Vermont  and  in  it.     He  was  elected  attorney- 
general  of  Vermont  under  the   act  of  October,  1790,  and  was  suc- 
ceeded   in    1793   by  the    Hon.    Daniel   Buck,   of  Norwich.     Samuel 
Hitchcock   and   Lemuel   Chipman,  of  Pawlet,  were  the   presidential 
electors  at  large  from  Vermont  at  the  second  presidential  election  in 
1793.     Lott  Hall,  of  Westminster,  and  Paul  Brigham.  of  Norwich, 
were  their  colleagues  in  the  first  electoral  college  in  Vermont,  and  all 


250  DESCENDANTS    OF    LUKE    HITCHCOCK.       BRANCH    I. 

were  appointed  by  the  Legislature  in  1792,  and  they  casfthe  vote  of 
Vermont  at  Windsor  for  George  Washington  and  John  Adams.  In 
1797  the  second  general  revision  of  the  laws  was  completed  by  a 
committee  consisting  of  Koswell  Hopkins,  of  Vergennes  ;  Richard 
Whiting,  of  Brattleboro ;  Nathaniel  Chipman,  of  Tinmouth,  and 
Samuel  Hitchcock  (then  of  Vergennes).  Samuel  Hitchcock  was 
judge  of  the  District  Court  of  the  United  States  for  the  district  of 
Vermont,  and  judge  of  the  Circuit  Court  of  the  second  circuit  of  the 
United  States,  receiving  his  appointment  from  President  John  Adams, 
and  going  out  of  that  office  when  the  judiciary  act  was  repealed. 
Judge  Hitchcock's  scholarship  was  of  a  superior  order,  and  as  a 
lawyer  he  ranked  among  the  foremost  in  New  England.  He  was 
endowed  with  a  large  measure  of  benevolence  and  admirable  social 
qualities.  As  a  conversationalist  he  was  unrivaled  for  humor  and 
brilliant  repartee.  His  personal  appearance  was  dignified  and  com- 
manding. He  had  a  light  complexion  and  sharp  blue  eyes,  and  to  a 
handsome  person  of  medium  size  and  height  he  added  polished  man- 
ners and  a  pleasing  address." 

He  died  in  Burlington,  Vrt.,  March  30,  1813  and  his  widow  Lucy, 
Aug.  27,  1842,  se.  74. 

In  the  same  volume  (pp.  640 — 701)  is  given  a  history  of  the  city 
of  Vergennes  where  Samuel  Hitchcock  lived  from  1794  to  180G. 
From  this  it  appears  that  the  town  of  Vergennes  became  a  city  in 
1794,  the  first  city  officers  being  elected  in  July,  1794,  and  in  con- 
nection with  this  appears  the  following  statement  (p.  658)  : 

"■  The  records  of  the  Court  of  Common  Council  show  a  respect  for 
a  strict  construction  of  the  charter  law,  that  has  not  always  since 
been  apparent.  When,  a  few  months  later,  Samuel  Hitchcock  moved 
from  lUirlington  to  Vergennes,  and  became  associated  with  the  picked 
men  elected  to  fill  the  city  offices,  Vergennes  could  boast  of  as 
large  a  number  of  strong  minded  and  accomplished  men  as  ever 
graced  a  country  village.  Samuel  Hitchcock,  who  had  married  a 
daughter  of  Ethan  Allen,  and  was  himself  the  peer  of  any  lawyer  of 
his  day,  lived  for  several  years  in  a  house  standing  on  the  ground 
now  occupied  by  the  Catholic  Church."

not  engaged  in  active  business,  his  venerable  form  was  daily  seen  in 
our  streets,  and  always  in  the  house  of  God  when  open  for  worship. 
His  delight  in  serving  the  Lord  was  most  evident.  His  piety  was 
cheerful  and  active.  He  lived — although  in  comfortable  health — in 
the  constant  expectation  of  being  called  away,  and  was  therefore, 
when  struck  down  by  apoplexy,  ready,  and  after  sixteen   hours  of

HENRY    HITCHCOCK, 
Chief  Justice  of  Alabama. 


FAMILY    OF    JOHN.  293 

134. 

Hon.  Henry6  Hitchcock  (Samuel5,  Noah*,  Nathaniel3,  John-, 
Luke1)  sou  of  Judge  Samuel  and  Lucy  Caroline  (Allen)  Hitchcock, 
was  born  in  Burlington,  Vt.,  Sept.  19,  1792.  "He  graduated  at  the 
University  of  Vermont  with  honor  in  1811.  The  deathof  his  father 
left  him  with  care  of  farm  and  family  on  his  hands,  but  he  managed 
to  get  time  for  a  thorough  legal  education.  He  then,  in  1816,  went 
to  St.  Stephens,  near  Mobile,  and  then  a  part  of  Mobile  Territory, 
#  where  he  gained  the  highest  reputation  as  a  lawyer  and  where  he  made 
money.  In  1819  he  was  appointed  Attorne}*  General  for  Alabama 
and  later  moved  to  Mobile.  He  successively  filled  the  offices  of 
District  Attorney,  Justice  of  the  Supreme  Court  (of  Alabama)  and 
later  Chief  Justice.  Speculations  in  real  estate  now  took  much  of 
his  time  and  gave  him  a  property  of  over  half  a  million  of  dollars." 
He  married  in  Oct.,  1821,  Anne  Erwin,  dan.  of  Colonel  Andrew 
Erwin  of  Nashville,  Tenn.  She  was  born  iu  Ashville,  N.  C,  in 
1803  and  d.  at  St.  Louis,  1854.  He  had  eight  children  of  whom  four 
died  iu  infancy  and  one  in  youth. 

"  In  1835,  at  43  years  of  age  he  was  baptized,  made  profession  of 
faith  and  became  a  member  of  the  Presbyterian  church.  He  died 
Aug.  11,  1839,  of  yellow  fever."  His  personal  friend,  Gen.  Graudey 
of  Alabama,  says  of  him:  "He  was  the  best  known,  the  most 
beloved,  the  most  distinguished,  the  ablest,  the  most  worthy  and  the 
most  popular  man  iu  Alabama  during  the  last  ten  years  of  his  life." 

Melvin  L.  Gray,  Esq.,  of  the  St.  Louis  Bar  states  that  "  early  in 
September,  1839,  he  weut  to  Alabama  and  well  remembers  that  the 
newspapers  throughout  the  state  were  then  "  in  mourning" — their 
columns  bordered  with  heavy  black  lines — for  his  recent  death,  which 
was  universally  spoken  of  as  a  great  public  calamity." 

HIS   CHILDREN'   WERE  : 

i.  Caroline  Loraine7,  b.  April  8,  1825,  at  Mobile,  Ala. ;  m.  March,

Mrs.  Samantba  Farwell  of  Sandusky,  O.  "  Many  relatives  of  his 
2d  wife,"  so  writes  a  friend,  "  were  left  orphans  and  he  took  care  of 
them.  We  have  often  heard  him  remark  that  he  had  brought  up 
fourteen  orphan  children  who  call  him  father."  He  removed  to  San- 
dusky City,  O.  and  was  there  in  1849  when  the  cholera  broke  out.  In 
that  city  of  then  from  5000  to  7000  inhabitants  over  100  person  died 
in  three  days.  Fully  half  the  people  left  their  homes  by  the  two 
lines  of  railroad  south  and  the  three  lines  of  steamers  to  Cleveland, 
Toledo  and  Detroit.  There  was  no  railroad  then  to  Cleveland.  Rev. 
John  Fisher,  pastor  of  the  Presbyterian  church  died  and  his  remains 
were  reverently  placed  in  an  uupainted  coffin  and  Dea.  Hitchcock 
and  Henry  Marsh,  Esq.,  were  the  only  persons  who  accompanied  the 
remains  to  the  grave  and  saw  them  properly  buried.  Dea.  Hitchcock 
was  heroic  in  care  for  the  dying  and  the  dead  and  proved  himself  one 
of  those  dauntless  Christian  men  whom  such  an  occasion  brings  to 
the  front.  For  some  days  as  our  markets  were  forsaken  we  had  to 
telegraph  in  the  morning  for  our  dinners  which  Cleveland  sent  free 
by  the  steamboat.  Then  Cincinnati  moved  her  cholera  hospital  to 
Sandusky  and  in  a  few  days  sixty  physicians  came  from  different 
parts  of  Ohio. 

"In  1861  Dea.  Hitchcock  moved  to  Alpena,  Mich.,  having  pur- 
chased a  tract  of  land  where  a  large  part  of  the  city  now  stands. 
Six  months  after  arriving  here  he  was  instrumental  in  organizing  the 
first  church  in  the  county  which  consisted  of  eight  members,  he  being 
one  of  the  deacons  until  his  death.  The  first  meetings  were  held  in 
a  hall  where  to  call  the  people  together  the  Deacon  suspended  a  part 
of  a  circular  saw  for  a  bell  and  made  it  ring  by  striking  it  with  a 
hammer. 

"  He  was  one  of  the  early  anti-slavery  men  of  this  country  and  will 
be  long  remembered  by  the  early  actors  in  that  movement  as  wise  in 
council  and  firm  in  action,  yet  never  offensive  in  speech  or  uncharit- 
able to  the  motives  of  others."     He  died  at  Alpena,  Feb.  9,  1881.

Chester7  Hitchcock  (Prentice6.  Luke*,  Luke4,  Luke3,  John2. 
Luke1 )  sou  of  Prentice  and  Belinda  (Brace)  Hitchcock,  was  born  in 
Stanbridge,  Canada,  June  11,  1810.     He  died  in  1892. 

"His  bovhood  was  spent  on  the  farm  in  Canada.  When  a  young 
man  he  came  west  to  Rockford,  111.  and  engaged  in  mercantile  busi- 
ness. He  was  also  in  Michigan  City,  while  still  a  young  man,  in.  a 
similar  business.  A  few  years  later  he  went  to  Buffalo,  N.  Y.  and 
became  interested  in  grain  commission  and  shipping. 

He  was  married  there  in  1849  to  Elizabeth  Matters.  Their  chil- 
dren, Charles  and  Ida  were  twins,  born  in  Buffalo  in  1852.  Charles 
died  in  1857.  His  death  was  a  great  blow  to  his  father  who  had 
centered  all  his  plans  in  him.  In  1858  he  moved  to  La  Porte,  Ind. 
and  soon  to  Belvidere,  111.  He  was  at  this  time  engaged  in  business 
in  Chicago.  Later  he  lived  in  Toledo,  0.  and  then  again  in  Buffalo 
in  1863.  In  a  year  or  two  he  returned  to  Chicago  where  for  many 
years  he  was  interested  in  dealing  in  grain. 

In  1870  he  went  with  his  wife  and  daughter  to  California,  but  made 
it  only  his  winter  home,  returning  each  year  to  his  business  in 
Chicago. 

After  1880  he  spent  his  summers  almost  entirely  at  his  farm  near 
Rockford,  111.  called  "Black  Hawk  Springs.'  This  place  he  owned  for 
man}T  years  and  enjoyed  better  than  any  other,  especially  on  account 
of  its  fine  water. 

In  character  he  was  energetic  and  genial  and  always  anxious  to  be 
helpful  to  others.  Though  he  lived  to  be  82  years  old,  he  was  very 
active  and  as  healthy  as  a  child  to  the  last.  He  was  quite  as  inter- 
ested in  the  progress  of  the  world,  and  in  minor  matters,  as  though 
he  were  a  young  man.  His  acquaintance  throughout  the  parts  of  the 
country  in  which  he  had  lived  at  different  times  was  extensive.  One 
who  has  known  him  well  for  many  years,  says  of  him.  '  I  have  known 
Mr.  Hitchcock  since  I  was  a  boy,  and  I  have  never  known  him  to  do 
an  unkind  or  ungenerous  deed  or  to  speak  unkindly  to  or  of  any 
one.'  "

FAMILY    OF    JOHN.  359 

She  died  Dec.  1,  1849.  He  married  2d,  Jan.  1,  185J,  AureliaPhebe 
Wellman,  born  July  13,  1820,  daughter  of  Dea.  James  Ripley  and 
Phebe  (Wyman)  Wellman  of  Cornish,  N.H.,  where  the  family  lived 
upon  laud  taken  up  by  the  Rev.  James  Wellman  who  was  graduated 
from  Harvard  in  1743.  She  died  Nov.  28,  1862.  In  1865  he 
married  3d,  Miss  Ellen  Clark  of  Brattleboro,  Vt.  He  received 
the  degree  of  M.  D.  from  Dartmouth  college  in  1844,  and  also 
from  Middlebury  college.  He  began  the  practice  of  medicine 
in  Ashby,  Mass.,  and  soon  gained  a  reputation  by  his  sagacity 
in  diagnosis,  and  his  skill  as  an  operator.  After  a  few  years 
he  removed  to  Fitchburg,  Mass.,  and  his  professional  career  there- 
after was  one  of  marked  distinction.  In  the  later  years  of  his 
life  he  was  recognized  as  the  leading  surgeon  of  that  section  of  Mas- 
sachusetts. He  was  the  second  surgeon  on  record  to  perform  the 
operation  of  oesophagotomy,  and  he  began  to  operate  for  strangu- 
lated hernia  at  a  time  when  the  operation  was  regarded  by  most 
members  of  his  profession  as  entirely  impracticable.  His  first  sub- 
ject was  one  who  had  been  given  up  by  the  attendant  physican.  Dr. 
Hitchcock  designed  a  stretcher,  a  surgical  chair  and  some  splints, 
made  two  valuable  changes  in  surgical  instruments  and  discovered 
two  medical  preparations,  placing  them  at  the  service  of  the  public 
in  accordance  with  the  ethics  of  his  profession.  He  also  took  an 
active  interest  in  sanitary  medicine  and  questions  of  public  health. 
Dr.  Hitchcock  was  elected  to  the  Massachusetts  legislature  for  several 
terms  between  1847  and  1855,  and  he  was  a  member  of  the  executive 
council  from  1862-64,  and  closely  associated  with  Gov.  John  A. 
Andrew.  At  one  time  he  was  appointed  a  special  agent  of  the  state 
to  superintend  the  care  of  the  wounded,  and  visited  the  Southern 
battle-fields,  and  in  1864  he  directed  the  transportation  of  the  Mas- 
sachusetts wounded.  Some  account  of  his  services  is  given  in  Schou- 
ler's  Histor}'  of  Massachusetts  in  the  Rebellion.  For  a  time  he  was 
an  overseer  of  Harvard  University.  After  the  war  Dr.  Hitchcock 
retired  from  public  life,  devoting  himself  to  his  professional  duties 
which  became  engrossing,  although  he  found  time  to  gratify  his  fine 
literary  tastes,  and  also  to  take  a  leading  part  in  the  foundation  of  a 
church  and  in  other  religious  and  civic  duties.  His  writings  were 
never  collected,  but  he  wrote  much  and  well  throughout  his  life.  In 
addition  to  various  monographs  and  addresses  he  published  "  Chris- 
tianity and  Medical  Science,"  (Boston,  1867.)  He  died  in  Fitchburg, 
Mass.,  March  30,  1874."

New  York  on  Saturday  last,  was  well  known  to  many  of  our  citizens

of  middle  age,  a  considerable  portion  of  his  boyhood  having  been 
passed  at  the  old  Durfee  homestead,  No.  72,  North  Main  street, 
with  his  cousin,  the  late  Bradford  M.  C.  Durfee.  Commander 
Hitchcock  was  born  in  this  very  house,  and  with  singular  appropriate- 
ness he  will  be  taken  to  his  last  resting  place  from  the  same  house 
to-morrow  morning.  Commander  Hitchcock  entered  the  Naval 
Academy  at  the  outbreak  of  the  civil  war,  graduated  in  1865  and  at 
the  time  of  his  death  had  attained  the  rank  of  commander.  He  was 
in  constant  active  service  from  the  day  of  his  graduation  to  the  day 
of  his  death.  During  this  period  he  made  two  cruises  to  China  and 
the  East,  three  to  the  Mediterranean,  served  three  years  in  the  coast- 
survey,  three  years  in  the  light  house  service,  as  inspector,  and 
engaged  in  a  government  survey  of  the  Isthmus, of  Darien  for  a  ship 
canal.  He  was  of  the  party  of  officers  representing  our  government  in 
1883  at  the  formal  opening  of  Corea  to  diplomatic  and  commercial 
intercourse  with  civilized  states.  While  on  coast  survey  service,  in 
1876,  he  discovered  a  fountain  of  fresh  water  in  the  ocean  about  ten 
miles  off  St.  Augustine,  Florida.  Commander  Hitchcock's  energy, 
sagacity  and  good  judgment  marked  him  out  as  a  man  peculiarly 
fitted  for  delicate  government  duty,  and  in  the  summer  of  1891  he 
was  selected  for  service  against  the  seal  poachers  in  Behring  Sea. 
Although  suffering  from  a  disorder  growing  out  of  illness  contracted 
in  the  line  of  service,  he  insisted  on  serving  this  important  cruise, 
and  at  its  completion  was  ordered  for  a  year's  service  in  China  to 
protect  American  citizens  in  case  of  an  uprising.  At  the  termina- 
tion of  his  cruise  he  returned  to  his  home,  where,  after  a  short  three 
weeks  he  closed  his  life  in  the  midst  of  his  family  and  friends.  The 
funeral  took  place  at  Madison  Square  church  on  Tuesday,  the  escort 
consisting  of  a  battalion  of  marines  and  sailors  under  Comdr.  Ide."

Capt.  Luke3  Hitchcock  (Luke1)  son  of  Luke  aud  Elizabeth 
(Gibbous)  Hitchcock  of  Wethersfield,  Couu.,  was  born  at  Wethers- 
field,  Juue  5,  1655.  After  the  death  of  his  father  and  on  the  mar- 
riage of  his  mother  to  William  Warriuer  of  Spriugfield  he  removed 
to  that  place.  He  became  a  prominent  man  of  Spriugfield,  Mass., 
where  he  kept  a  tavern.  He  was  also  a  shoemaker  aud  a  captain  in 
the  army  aud  was  made  sheriff  of  Hampshire  County,  which  theu  includ- 
ed Hampden,  Franklin  and  Berkshire  counties.  The  history  of  Suffield, 
Conu.  says  that  he  was  one  of  the  original  grantees  of  that  town, 
and  in  1680  he  had  50  acres  of  land  allotted  to  him  there.  In  1717 
he  was  one  of  the  rate  payers  in  the  town  of  Brook  field  where  he 
seems  to  have  owned  a  good  deal  of  laud,  though  no  mention  of  that 
land  is  made  in  his  will.  He  was  also  one  of  the  petitioners  for  a 
grant  of  land  in  Brimfield.  The  records  of  Massachusetts  Bay  Col- 
ony read  :  "  May  30,  1679,  in  auswer  to  the  petition  of  Luke  Hitch- 
cock the  Court  judgeth  it  meet  to  grant  the  petitioner  tenne  pounds 
to  be  payed  forthwith  by  the  county  treasurer  deducting  the  same 
from  Hadley  account."  When  under  age  in  1673  he  chose  his  brother 
John  to  be  his  guardian.  In  1676  he  was  in  the  fight  with  the  Indians 
at  Turner's  Falls  and  he  had  a  share  in  the  towuship  of  Falltown, 
granted  to  the  survivors  of  that  fight. 

Hinman  says  of  "  Sergeant  Luke  Hitchcock,"  "  On  the  30th  of 
Nov.,  1693,  by  vote  of  Spriugfield,  Capt.  Thos.  Coltou  and  Luke 
Hitchcock  was  seut  to  the  Bay  to  procure  a  minister  to  preach  the 
word  of  God  to  the  town  ;  to  apply  to  Mr.  Increase  Mather  and  the 
rest  of  the  Rev'd.  Elders  in  Boston  for  their  help  to  obtain  a 
minister." 

He  married,  Feb.  14,  1676-7,  Sarah,  daughter  of  Jonathan  Burt,

Capt.  Ebenezer3  Hitchcock  (Luke2 ,  Luke1)  son  of  Capt.  Luke 
and  Sarah  (Dorchester)  Hitchcock,  was  born  Aug.  24,  1694,  at 
Springfield.  He  was  a  soldier  in  the  French  wars  and  was  in  the 
Louisburg  expedition  in  Col.  Dwight's  regiment.  He  received  his 
commission  as  lieutenant  from  Governor  Shirley  at  Louisburg,  June 
28,  1745,  just  after  the  fall  of  that  famous  fortress.  In  1747  he  was 
selectman  of  Springfield.  He  married  Feb.  14,  1716,  Mary  Shel- 
don who  was  the  mother  of  his  fourteen  children.  A  record  in  the 
handwriting  of  her  son,  the  Rev.  Gad  Hitchcock,  reads  "  My  Hond. 
Mother,  Mary  Hitchcock,  died  at  Springfield,  January  ye  8th,  1760." 
She  was  the  daughter  of  Joseph  Sheldon  of  Sheffield,  who  was  a 
representative  to  the  general  court  in  1708,  and  a  direct  descendant 
of  Archbishop  Gilbert  Sheldon  of  Canterbury,  England.  The 
mother  of  Mary  Sheldon  was  Mary,  daughter  of  Capt.  Joseph  Whit- 
ing, treasurer  of  Connecticut  for  thirty-nine  years,  having  succeeded 
his  father,  William  Whiting,  who  had  held  the  office  for  thirty-seven 


FAMILY    OF    LUKE.  411 

years  and  being  followed  by  his  son  who  continued  the  treasurership 
in  the  family  for  thirty-two  years  more.  The  wife  of  Joseph  Whit- 
ing was  Mary,  daughter  of  the  Hon.  John  Pynchon  of  Springfield. 

In  1735,  Ebenezer  Hitchcock  received  from  the  Pynchon  estate 
three  hundred  and  seventy-nine  pounds,  being  the  rest  of  his  wife's 
fortune  from  that  source. 

The  wife  of  John  Pynchon  of  Springfield,  Mass.,  was  Amy, 
daughter  of  George  Wyllys,  the  second  governor  of  Connecticut,  a 
man  of  wealth  and  a  Puritan  of  the  Puritans.  In  1638,  he  sent  his 
steward,  William  Gibbons  with  twenty  men  to  prepare  a  home  for 
him  and  a  year  later  took  possession  of  the  Wyllys  estate  in  Hart- 
ford on  which  stood  the  tree  to  become  the  famous  Charter  Oak  of  a 
later  generation.  The  sister  of  William  Gibbons  married  Luke 
Hitchcock,  the  ancestor  of  Ebenezer  Hitchcock,  and  as  shown  Gov. 
Wyllys  was  the  ancestor  of  his  wife,  Mary  Sheldon. 

Ebenezer  Hitchcock  married  for  his  second  wife,  the  Widow  Mary 
Morgan  of  Brimfield,  Mass.,  who  outlived  him.  She  died  April  25, 
1785.  The  Rev.  Gad  Hitchcock  records  "My  Hond.  Father  died 
Jan.  18,  1776."  His  will  gave  to  his  wife  Mary  £6  lawful  money  to 
be  paid  as  soon  as  may  be  ;  to  Gad  £3  ;  to  Ebenezer  5  shillings  to  be 
paid  in  four  years  ;  to  his  daughter  Ann  wife  of  Jonathan  Chapin, 
Mary,  wife  of  Hezekiah  Warriner  and  Silence,  wife  of  Samuel  Bliss, 
£10  each  ;  to  daughter  Sarah  £14  ;  to  four  children  of  his  daughter 
Dinah  Sykes  deceased  50  shillings  each;  toAbner,  Joseph  and  Seth 
land  in  Springfield  ;  the  rest  of  his  property  to  Phineas  and  Stephen, 
they  not  having  already  received  their  portion.

George4  Hitchcock    (Luke3,  Luke2,  Luke1)   son  of    Luke  and 
Martha  (Colton)  Hitchcock,  was  born  Nov.  12,  1728.     He  lived  at 
Springfield  ;  was  a  cattle  drover  and  deputy  sheriff.     He  married,

Conn.     His  will  was  admitted  to  probate  Feb.  9,  1789.

Rev.  Gad4  Hitchcock,  D.  D.,  (Ebenezer3 ,  Luke2,  Luke1)  son  of 
Capt.  Ebenezer  and  Mary  (Sheldon)  Hitchcock,  was  born  Feb.  12, 
1719,  at  Springfield,  Mass.  He  was  graduated  at  Harvard  College 
in  1743.  On  the  29th  of  February,  1747  the  parish  of  Pembroke, 
Mass.  voted  to  settle  "  Mr.  Gad  Hitchcock  in  the  ministry  if  he  can 
be  had."  His  ordination  was  arranged  for  "  the  first  Wednesday  in 
October,  1748  and  Elijah  Cashing,  Esq.,  to  have  one  hundred  pounds 
old  tenor  for  providing  the  entertainment."  Mr.  dishing  provided 
New  England  rum  as  was  the  custom  and  one  good  brother  being 
brought  before  the  church  "for undue  and  profane  words"  excused 
himself  on  the  ground  that  he  "  drank  so  much  rum  at  the  ordination 
of  Mr.  Gad  Hitchcock"  that  he  was  not  responsible  for  his  words. 
The  settlement  was  for  life  and  on  the  22nd  of  December,  1748,  Mr. 
Hitchcock  was  married  to  Dorothy,  daughter  of  Samuel  and  Dorothy 
(Avery)  Angier  of  Cambridge.  Samuel  Angier  was  the  son  of  the 
Rev.  Samuel  Angier  and  Hannah,  only  daughter  of  Urian  Oakes, 
fourth  president  of  Harvard  College.  Mather  said  of  Oakes  that  he 
was  "  as  a  theologian  deservedly  famous,  a  truly  charming  orator,  a 
learned  and  orthodox  pastor  of  a  church  at  Cambridge,  a  most  sagac- 
ious president  of  Harvard  college,  a  recipient  of  the  highest  commen- 
dations for  piety,  learning  and  eloquence."  Samuel  Angier's grand- 
father was  Edmund  Angier,  who  married  Ruth,  only  daughter  of 
William  Ames,  D.  D.,  "of  famous  memory."  Dr.  Ames  was  a 
fellow  of  Christ  College  ;  was  driven  from  England  for  non-confor- 
mity ;  was  sent  by  the  States  General  of  Holland  to  the  Synod  of 
Dort  to  "  aid  the  president  of  the  synod  by  his  suggestions."  He 
was  the  author  of  the  "  Medulla  Theolo°;iae  "'  and  other  works  and 


Rev.  Gad  Hitchcock,  D.  D.

was  professor  of  the  university  of  Franeker.  His  portrait  painted 
in  1633  hangs  in  Memorial  Hall,  Cambridge.  Mrs.  Hitchcock's 
lineage  was  equally  illustrious  on  her  mother's  side.  Hergrandf ather 
was  Dr.  Jonathan  Avery  and  her  grandmother,  Sybil  (Sparhawk) 
Avery,  after  the  death  of  her  young  husband  married  the  Rev. 
Michael  Wigglesworth,  who  wrote  "  The  Day  of  Doom."  Their  son, 
the  Rev.  Edward  Wigglesworth  was  for  fifty  years  professor  of  divin- 
ity at  Harvard.  Sybil  Sparhawk's  mother  was  Patience,  daughter  of 
the  Rev.  Samuel  Newman,  who  led  his  people  into  the  wilderness  and 
founded  a  town  which  he  called  Rehoboth,  because  his  flock  might 
now  say  "  The  Lord  has  made  room  for  us  and  we  shall  be  fruitful 
in  the  laud."  He  was  the  author  of  the  first  concordance  of  the 
Bible  and  in  the  words  of  Cotton  Mather  "  was  a  very  living  preacher 
and  a  very  preaching  liver." 

On  the  "2d  of  November,  1749,  was  born  to  Gad  and  Dorothy 
Hitchcock  their  only  child,  Gad  Hitchcock,  the  second.  In  Decem- 
ber, Mr.  Hitchcock  bought  a  house  that  is  still  standing  and  seven- 
teen acres  of  land.  Here  he  passed  his  days  and  here  he  died  full 
of  years  and  honors.  The  only  absence  of  any  length  was  in  1758 
when  as  chaplain  of  Col.  Doty's  regiment  he  followed  the  fortunes 
of  war  and  shared  in  its  fighting  and  its  marching. 

His  services  were  in  constant  demand.  In  1765  he  preached  the 
election  sermon  before  that  select  body  known  as  "  the  ancient  and 
honorable  artillery."  In  1771,  on  the  occasion  of  the  ordination  of 
the  Rev.  Pmos  Hitchcock  at  Beverly  his  text  was  I  Cor.  ix  :   19. 

"  For  though  I  be  free  from  all  men,  yet  have  I  made  myself  servant  unto 
all  that  I  might  gain  the  more."  In  his  sermon  he  affirmed  that  "  a  slavish 
submission  to  human  creeds  and  formularies,  and  a  trembling  concern  to 
make  them  the  basis  of  our  discourses  to  the  people,  is  degrading  to  the 
sacred  character,  an  affront  to  the  scriptures  of  truth,  and  a  contradiction  of 
the  fundamental  principles  of  protestantism." 

Once  or  twice  he  narrowly  escaped  being  disciplined  on  account 
of  his  heretical  doctrines. 

In  May,  1774,  he  was  called  upon  to  deliver  the  election  sermon 
in  the  Old  South  Church  before  the  legislature  and  the  governor, 
being  the  occasion  of  the  "  Election  of  His  Majesty's  Council  for 
the  said  Province." 

The  fierce  excitement  and  spirit  of  resistance  that  preceded  the 
out-break  of  the  Revolution  had  reached  its  height.  The  tea  had 
already  gone  overboard  in  Boston  Harbor  and  blood  was  soon  to  flow

at  Lexington.  "  Pembroke  had  been  among  the  foremost  towns  in 
indignant  protest  and  threats  against  the  tyrannical  action  of  the 
royal  government,  and  the  preacher's  whole  heart  was  with  his  peo- 
ple "  whose  ideas  he  had  helped  to  mould.  He  had  chosen  for  his 
text,  Prov.  xxix :  2,  "When  the  righteous  are  in  authority,  the 
people  rejoice  ;  when  the  wicked  beareth  ride,  the  people  mourn. " 
"  The  very  text  was  like  a  trumpet  call  to  battle.  Fresh  from  the 
people  whose  excitement  and  indignation  he  shared,  he  arose  in  the 
presence  of  the  hushed  assemblage  and  launched  full  on  the  bosom 
of  the  astonished  Governor  '  When  the  wicked  beareth  rule,  the 
people  mourn.'  " 

He  gave  an  outline  of  the  condition  of  affairs  in  America  and  added  "  If  I 
am  mistaken  in  supposing-  that  plans  are  formed,  and  executing  subversive 
of  our  natural  and  charter  rights  and  privileges  and  incompatible  with  every 
idea  of  liberty,  all  America  is  mistaken  with  me."  He  boldly  defended  the 
right  of  revolution  and  called  on  the  people  to  be  careful  of  their  civil  and 
religious  liberties. 

Governor  Gage  was  filled  with  great  wrath  on  account  of  the  bold- 
ness of  this  position.  Dr.  Hitchcock  in  after  years  said  :  "  It  was 
doubtless  a  most  moving  discourse,  in  as  much  as  it  moved  many  of 
the  congregation  from  the  house."  referring  to  some  of  the  govern- 
or's party  who  left  the  church  in  their  indignation.  After  listening 
to  the  sermon,  the  legislature  ordered  it  printed  and  then  proceeded 
to  elect  councillors  in  full  accord  with  the  preacher's  advice.  Gov- 
ernor Gage  negatived  thirteen  of  them,  and  adjourned  the  legisla- 
ture to  meet  at  Salem,  June  17,  as  a  punishment  and  as  a  means  of 
keeping  them  from  coming  together.  At  Salem,  he  again  adjourned 
them,  but  they  locked  the  doors,  refused  the  governor's  messen- 
ger admission  and  transacted  their  business  in  spite  of  him.  Such 
sermons  had  something  to  do  with  the  Revolution. 

Gad  Hitchcock  served  as  chaplain,  but  was  not  commissioned.. 
He  was  elected,  July  12,  1779,  a  member  of  the  convention  to  make 
a  constitution  for  Massachusetts.  The  convention  met  in  1780  and 
formed  the  constitution  under  which  Massachusetts  was  governed 
till  1820. 

In  1787  he  received  the  degree  of  D.  D.  from  Harvard  College. 
He  wore  a  wig  as  white  as  snow.  He  was  a  sociable,  witty  and 
cheerful  man  and  rather  improvident,  which  was  a  trial  to  his  high 
spirited  wife.  He  owned  several  slaves,  some  of  whom  insisted  in 
remaining  with  him  after  they  were  free  and  they  became  agreat  care.

He  was  a  colonel  in  the  "  Army  of  Observation,"  in  the  war  of  the  rev- 
olution, serving  from  the  summer  of  1775  to  1777.  At  the  siege  of

work  around  Brooklyn  ;  Col.  Hitchcock's  regiment  to  take  Ft.  Put- 
nam and  the  Fort  or  redoubt  on  the  left  of  it  for  their  alarm  posts. 
In  case  of  an  attack  all  these  posts  are  to  be  defended  to  the  last 
extremity."  He  was  in  the  battle  of  Harlem  Heights.  He  was 
with  Washington  when  he  surprised  and  captured  the  Hessians  at 
Trenton,  Dec,  1777.  He  caught  a  violent  cold  in  that  storm  which 
terminated  his  life  in  a  few  days.  He  commanded  a  brigade  at 
Princeton,  though  then  suffering  from  the  illness  which  resulted  in  his 
death  soon  after.  "Col.  Hitchcock,  who  temporarily  succeeded 
Nixon  in  the  command  of  the  brigade,  received,  the  thanks  of  Wash- 
ington for  himself  and  his  men  in  front  of  Princeton  College  for  their 
aid  and  conduct  in  action.  He  died  in  camp  at  Morristown,  N.  J., 
Jan.  13,  1777,  and  was  buried  by  the  Philadelphia  and  Delaware  light 
infantry  companies  under  Rodney  with  all  the  honors  of  war." 

He  made  a  nuncupative  will  a  few  days  before  his  death  which  was 
as  follows  : 

"I  give  one-half  of  my  estate  to  the  Benevolent  Congregational 
Society  in  Providence.  Remainder  to  be  equally  divided  between  my 
brethren." 

This  will  was  proved  by  the  Court  of  Probate  of  Providence  and 
administration  granted  to  carry  it  into  effect. 

Col:  Hitchcock  was  a  cousin  of  the  Rev.  Dr.  Enos.  Hitchcock,  so 
many  years  pastor  of  the  Benevolent  Congregational  Society  of 
Providence.     He  never  married.

Capt.  David4  Hitchcock  (Peletiah3,  Luke2,  Luke1)  son  of  Pele- 
tiah  and  Sarah  (Parsons)  Hitchcock,  was  born  about  1741.  He  mar- 
ried, pub.  Dec.  17,  1763,  Martha  Keyes  of  Western  now  Warren, 
Mass.  He  settled  in  Brookfield  and  kept  a  hotel  in  what  is  now 
known  as  West  Brookfield.  It  is  said  that  "The  Old  Hitchcock 
Tavern,  now  known  as  the  West  Brookfield  House,  was  built  in  1760 
by  Capt.  David  Hitchcock  and  occupied  by  him  till  1811.  Washing- 
ton dined  there  in  1789  while  on  his  way  to  Boston.  The  building 
at  that  time  was  of  two  stories  with  agambrel  roof  and  a  small  porch 
over  the  front  door.  Until  Brookfield  was  divided  this  tavern  was

and  Sarah  (Parsons)  Hitchcock,  was  born  in  Brookfield,  Mass.,  March 
7,  1744-5,  and  graduated  at  Harvard  College  in  1767.  He  married, 
Jan.  13,  1771,  at  Truro,  Mass.,  Mrs.  Achsah  Jordan,  daughter  of 
Caleb  and  Priscilla  (Allen)  Upham  of  Truro,  Mass.  In  the  same 
year  he  was  ordained  colleague  of  Rev.  Mr.  Chipman  of  the  second 
church  in  Beverly,  Mass.  and  his  ordination  sermon  was  preached  by 
his  cousin  Rev.  Gad.  Hitchcock.  In  1780  he  was  dismissed  from  the 
church  in  Beverly  at  his  own  request.  He  was  early  a  chaplain  in 
the  Revolutionary  army  and  his  picture  is  one  of  the  prominent 
figures  in  Trumbull's  painting  of  the  surrender  of  Burgoyne  of  which 
event  he  was  an  eye-witness.  He  was  1st  Chaplain  of  Col.  Learned's 
regiment  and  was  subsequently  promoted  to  the  chaplaincj7  of  Gen. 
Patterson's  brigade,  retaining  this  position  to  the  close  of  the  war. 

"  During  a  furlough  in  17S0  Mr.  Hitchcock  preached  for  a  few 
Sundays  in  Providence,  R.  I.  for  the  First  Congregational  Society. 
After  his  return  to  the  army  he  received  an  invitation  to  the  pastor- 
ate which  he  finally  accepted.  He  procured  a  substitute  and  was 
installed  as  pastor  in  October,  1783.  Here  the  remainder  of  his  life 
was  passed  in  an  active  and  fruitful  ministry  of  twenty  years. 

He  had  the  title  of  D.  D.,  published  several  books  and  was  a  mem- 
ber of  the  society  of  the  Cincinnati.  His  funeral  sermon  was 
preached  by  David  Tappan,  D.  D.  His  epitaph  reads  :  "  Rev.  Enos 
Hitchcock,  D.  D.,  born  Springfield,  Mass.,  Grad.  Harvard  College 
1767,  installed  pastor  of  the  Benevolent  Congregational  church  and 
society  in  Providence,  1783.  As  Chaplain  in  the  Revolutionaiy  army 
he  was  respected  and  beloved  by  the  immortal  Washington .  As  minis- 
ter of  the  Gospel  he  was  eminent  for  piety,  urbanity  and  charity. 
Zealous  for  general  education  he  led  the  way  to  establish  publick 
schools  in  Providence.  Earnest  for  religion  he  gave  more  than  six 
thousand  dollars  to  the  Benevolent  Congregational  Society,  the 
interest  of  which  is  to  be  applied  to  the  support  of  a  learned  and 
pious  minister  of  the  Congregational  order.  He  died  Feb.  '26,  1803, 
se.  57,  and  expiring  said,  '  I  sleep  in  Jesus.'  "

Dr.  Gad5  Hitchcock  (Grad4,  Ebenezer3,  LuJce2,  Luke1)  son  of 
Rev.  Gad  and  Dorothy  (Angier)  Hitchcock,  was  born,  probably  at 
Pembroke,  Mass.,  Nov.  2,  1749.  He  graduated  at  Harvard  in  1768, 
social  rank  16  in  a  class  of  42  ;  became  a  member  of  the  Mass. 
Medical  society  and  was  a  surgeon's  mate  in  1775  in  Col.  John 
Thomas's  regiment  in  the  war  of  the  Revolution.  Thomas  was  pro- 
moted and  John  Bailey  became  colonel  of  the  regiment.  Dr.  Hitch- 
cock's application  for  a  pension  shows  that  he  served  in  Colonel  John 
Bailey's  second  Mass.  Regiment  till  December  when  he  was  trans- 
ferred to  the  hospital  department  at  Roxbury  and  served  till  the  last 
of  May,  1776.  In  June  he  entered  Col.  Simeon  Cary's  regiment  as 
surgeon  and  was  soon  appointed  chief  surgeon  of  General  Fellow's 
brigade  hospital  in  the  Jerseys  holding  that  important  position  till  the 
end  of  his  term  of  enlistment,  February,  1777.  He  was  placed  on 
the  pension  roll  March  23,  1818. 

The  day  after  Lexington  Bailey  hastened  with  his  men  to  the  fray, 
he  was  in  the  seige  of  Boston,  helped  in  the  fortification  of  Dorches- 
ter Heights  which  taught  Howe  that  Halifax  was  safer  than  Roston, 
served  in  the  campaign  around  New  York,  did  valiently  in  the  battle 
of  Long  Island,  lost  seven  meu  at  White  Plains,  crossed  the  Dela- 
ware with  Washington  on  that  historical  Christmas  eve,  fought  at 
Princeton  and  then  hastened  north  and  actively  assisted  Burgoyne  to 
surrender,  then  took  a  hand  at  Monmouth,  was  at  West  Point  July 
31,  1780  and  not  far  from  there  Sept.  26,  when  in  his  orderly  books 
kept  by  William  Torrey  and  still  in  a  good  state  of  preservation  we 
read  that  u  Treason  of  the  blackest  dye  was  yesterday  discovered. 
General  Arnold  who  commanded  at  West  Point  lost  to  every  senti- 
ment of  honor,  of  private  and  public  obligation  was  about  to  deliver 

that  important  post  into  the  hands  of  the  enemy His 

excellency,  the  commander-in-chief  has  arrived  at  West  Point  and  is 
no  doubt  taking  the  properest  measures  to  unravel  fully  so  Hellish  a 
plot."  John  Bailey  was  descended  on  his  grandmother's  side  from 
John  Otis  who  gave  so  many  descendants  to  the  great  cause  of  Amer-

ican  freedom.  Dr.  Hitchcock  married,  July  9,  1778,  Sagie  Bailey, 
daughter  of  Col.  John  Bailey  of  Hanover,  Mass. 

We  quote  from  the  records  of  Gad  Hitchcock  :  "  My  beloved  wife 
died  Nov.  20,  1810  at  2  o'clock  in  the  morning  of  a  fever  with  which 
she  had  struggled  upwards  of  three  weeks  in  the  52d  year  of  her  age. 
She  was  born  January  the  third  in  the  year  1758.  I  was  married 
July  9,  1778,  consequently  lived  with  my  wife  thirty-two  years  four 
months  and  eleven  days.  We  had  twelve  children  seven  daughters 
and  five  sons. 

At  the  time  of  her  death,  we  had  our  eldest  daughter  married  to 
Dr.  Charles  Macomber  of  Marshfield,  our  third  daughter  married  to 
Dr.  Calvin  Tilden  settled  at  Yarmouth,  Cape  Cod.  Our  eldest 
son  married  to  Mary  L.  Thaxter   the   daughter   of  Dr.    Thaxter  of 

Abington My   wife    was   the    daughter  of  Col.   John 

Bailey  of  Hanover.  Dr.  Thaxter's  wife  was  the  daughter  of  Gen. 
Benjamin  Liucoln  of  Hingham.  ...... 

My  son  Henry  James  Hitchcock  died  of  yellow  fever  at  New 
Orleans,  Mississippi  River  after  five  days  illness,  on  the  tenth  of 
November,  1826,  when  he  was  first  mate  of  a  large  brig.  .  .  .  He 
was  the  youngest  of  twelve  and  the  first  instance  of  mortality  amongst 
them.  His  father  now  in  the  seventy-eighth  year  of  his  age,  worn 
down  by  a  long  series  of  troubles  and  perplexities  and  infirmities 
of  age,  has  the  mournful  duty  to  make  this  record 

Ebenezer  Hitchcock  died  at  sea  on  the  Pacific  Ocean,  Jan.  8,  1829 
in  the  twenty  eight  year  of  his  age.  .  .  .  He  was  second  mate 
of  a  whale  ship  that  sailed  from  New  Bedford  about  a  year  before  his 
death. 

Daniel  Hitchcock,  died  August  2,  1831  at  Hanson  of  a  fever  in  the 
41st  year  of  his  age." 

This  was  the  last  record  for  he  died  Nov.  29,  1835,  aged  86.

Valley,  Otsego  Co.,  N.  Y.  and  there  the  mother  of  his  six  children, 
his  first  wife,  died  in  1800.  He  moved  about  1801-2  to  Hanover 
now  Marshall.  Oneida  Co.,  N.  Y.  He  married  2d,  about  1803, 
Widow  Gridley  who  was  the  mother  of  twins  in  1804  and  died  about 
1809.  He  married  3d,  about  1811,  Delight  Andrews,  who  was  born 
in  Glastonbury,  Conn,  about  1768,  and  died  April  7,  1827.  "  Solo- 
mon Hitchcock  and  his  cousin  Ambrose  Hitchcock  bought  adjoining 
farms  on  Hanover  Green.  They  were  much  attached  to  each  other 
and  the  way  they  lived  is  worth}'  of  note.  Their  wives  (Delight  and 
Olive  Andrews)  were  sisters  and  they  lived  together  as  one  family, 
eating  from  the  same  table  for  more  than  twenty-five  years.  Each 
had  a  separate  deed  for  one-half  the  farm,  and  knew  which  was  his  ; 
but  so  far  as  stock,  team  and  farming  utensils  were  concerned  they 
held  them  in  common.  Solomon  Andrews6  Hitchcock  says  "  that  he 
lived"  (with  the  two)  "  from  his  birth  until  twenty-five  years  old, 
and  cannot  recall  a  single  instance  of  discord  or  contention  between 
them."  After  his  3d  wife's  death  in  1827,  Solomon5  Hitchcock  lived 
till  Jan.  6,  1842,  when  he  died  in  his  77th  year  at  Hanover. 
his  children  were  :

Pees.  Edward6  Hitchcock,  D.  D.,  LL.  D.,  (Justin5,  Luke*,

(White)  Hitchcock  died   at  Amherst,  Mass.,    May    26,    1863,    and 
President  Edward  Hitchcock  died  there  Feb.  27,  1864. 

From  the  biographical  notice  of  President  Edward  Hitchcock  read 
by  J.  P.  Lesley,  Aug.  9,  1866,  attheNational  Academy  of  Sciences, 
we  quote  the  following  : 

"  Edward  Hitchcock  was  born  in  1793.  His  father  was  a  small 
farmer  who  had  learned  the  trade  of  a  hatter,  had  fought  in  the  Rev- 
olutionary war,  and  was  a  deacon  in  the  Congregational  church  of 
Deerfield,  a  man  of  strong  mind  and  steadfast  piety,  a  genuine  New 
England  puritan. 

"  His  mother  was  a  high  bred  New  England  woman,  of  quick 
intelligence,  pure  heart  and  exquisite  sensibility.  The  son  was 
therefore  born  both  to  religion  and  science.  The  keys  of  the  spirit- 
ual and  of  the  physical  worlds  were  hid  beneath  his  pillow. 

Such  was  Edward  Hitchcock,  one  of  the  fathers  of  American 
Geology,  and  one  who  continued  to  the  close  of  a  long  life  to  be  an 
original  investigator.  A  man  of  ardent  fancy,  impulsive,  curious 
and  credulous  ;  docile  and  teachable  beyond  any  adult  man  of  science 
I  ever  knew  ;  modest  to  a  marvel ;  yet,  with  all  this,  a  man  of  suf- 
ficient self-reliance  and  determination  for  the  most  important  prac- 
tices of  life,  patient  of  difficulties,  persevering  and  industrious 
for  final  success  in  any  undertaking,  sound  in  judgment  and  dis- 
ciplined in  temper,  a  friend  to  all,  and  a  friend  of  all,  his 
whole  career  laid  claims  to  eminence,  which  would  have  been 
pre-eminence  in  American  Theology,  had  it  not  been  for  his 
devotion  to  the  ecclesiastical  and  financial  interests  of  the  college, 
which  he  saved  from  premature  decay,  and  refounded  upon  the  delib- 
erate sacrifice  of  his  own  ambition." 

From  the  sermon  delivered  at  the  funeral  of  Dr.  Hitchcock  by 
Professor  W.  S.  Tyler,  we  make  the  following  quotations  as  illustra- 
ting some  of  the  prominent  features  of  his  life  : 

"  Dr.  Hitchcock  created  the  materiel  and  the  reputation  of 
Amherst  College  in  the  Department  of  Natural  History.     .      .    .   . 

"  He  had  naturally  great  physical  strength  and  powers  of  endur- 
ance ;  and  though  by  overtasking  his  prodigious  powers  by  more 
prodigious  exertions,  he  early  impaired  his  health  and  strength,  still 
down  to  the  last  years  of  his  life,  few  could  climb  mountains  or 
break  rocks  with  him — few  could  endure  so  much  fatigue  as  he  on  a 
geological  excursion.         ........ 


FAMILY    OF    LUKE.  445 

"  Quick  and  accurate  observation  of  nature  was,  of  course,  the 
foundation  of  his  scientific  discoveries.  He  was  also  a  sharp  observ- 
er of  men  and  things.  His  judgment  of  character,  like  his  interpre- 
tation of  natural  phenomena,  was  quick  and  seldom  erroneous.  He 
had  the  originality  and  creative  power  which  belong  to  genius.  He 
was  made  for  a  discoverer,  for  an  originator  of  new  ideas,  new 
theories,  new  methods,  new  measures.  He  was  tall  enough  to  see 
over  the  heads  of  other  men,  and  catch  the  first  dawning  beams  of  a 
new  da}'.  He  had  more  faith  than  most  men,  in  new  discoveries. 
This  believing  disposition  sometimes  welcomed  a  premature  an- 
nouncement or  a  fabrication  even,  like  the  celebrated  moon-hoax  ; 
but  it  expected  great  things,  attempted  great  things  and  achieved 
great  things  for  science.  It  wrought  miracles  in  the  scientific 
world.  Asa  Christian  philosopher,  he  welcomed  every  discovery  in 
Geology  and  the  physical  sciences,  never  doubting,  that  they  would 
not  only  harmonize  with,  but  illustate  and  confirm  the  Sacred  Script- 
ures. Ichnology,  as  a  science,  began,  and  as  yet  may  almost  be 
said  to  end,  with  him.  He  was  the  originator  of  the  State  Scientific 
Surveys.  The  American  Scientific  Association  sprang  from  his 
suggestion  ;  and  he  was  its  first  president.  His  originality  in  start- 
ing new  doctrines,  and  new  arguments  in  Natural  Theology,  is  seen 
in  instances  too  numerous  to  mention.  His  mode  of  answering  the 
objection  to  the  Resurrection  of  the  body,  his  proofs  from  Geology 
of  the  general  benevolence  of  God,  of  special  providence  and  of 
special  Divine  intervention  in  nature,  and  his  Telegraphic  System  of 
the  Universe,  may  serve  as  examples.  He  possessed  in  a  remarka- 
ble degree  that  power  of  rapid  and  wide  generalization,  by  which 
the  fall  of  an  apple  suggested  to  Newton  the  law  of  universal  gravi- 
tation. Taught  by  a  few  terraces  on  the  hill-sides,  he  could  recon- 
struct the  Connecticut  Valley  at  each  successive  geological  epoch  of 
its  existence  ;  and  guided  by  a  few  foot-marks  in  the  sandstone,  he 
could  re-people  it  with  its  various  orders  and  tribes  of  primeval 
inhabitants.  If  he  had  not  been  a  great  geologist  and  naturalist,  he 
would  have  been  a  great  astronomer  and  mathematician.  The  ques- 
tion, which  he  should  be,  turned,  not  on  the  faculties  with  which  he 
was  endowed,  but  on  the  accident,  or  rather  the  providence  of  his 
impaired  health  and  eyesight.  ...... 

"  His  labors  have  shed  lustre  on  the  country  that  gave  him  birth, 
and  have  made  the  Connecticut  Valley  a  classic  land,  whither  men  of 
science  from  all  nations  must  go  on  pilgrimage,  if  they  would  seethe

best  ichnological  cabinet  in  the  world,  and  indeed  the  only  one  that 
deserves  or  claims  that  distinctive  name.  And  as  they  visit  that 
cabinet,  and  the  other  scientific  collections  and  buildings  on  this  con- 
secrated eminence,  under  the  name  of  Edward  Hitchcock,  they  will 
read  the  inscription  :  si  monnmentum  quaeris,  circnmspice." 

"  If  in  the  greatness  and  the  variety  of  his  talents  and  attainments, 
he  was  no  unworthy  representative  of  the  wise  man  of  the  Scriptures, 
so  was  he  in  the  consecration  of  all  those  talents  and  attainments  to 
the  highest  and  best  ends.  It  was  his  mission  to  illustrate,  in  his 
life  as  well  as  by  his  tongue  and  his  pen,  the  beauty  and  harmony  of 
the  connection  between  science  and  religion.  He  is  dead  ;  but  his 
memory  lives.  His  influence  lives  and  will  live  forever.  He  is  gone 
from  us.  But  his  works  do  follow  him.  His  character  and  his 
writings  remain  to  bless  the  world."         ..... 

The  literary  character  of  bis  life  may  be  partially  judged  of  by  a 
simple  enumeration  of  the  number  of  articles,  pamphlets,  and  vol- 
umes written  by  him  between  the  years  1815  and  1863.  These  were  : 
24  distinct  volumes,  35  separate  pamphlets  and  sermons,  80  news- 
paper articles,  and  94  papers  in  the  magazines  of  the  day.

Seminary;  ordained  at  Lawrence,  Mass.,  and  installed 
pastor;  as  subsequently  at  Cincinnati,  O.,  Brooklyn,  N.

widow  of  John  Ingland  of  England,  who  had  died  Nov.  30,  1655, 
leaving  no  children.  From  Mr.  Judd's  manuscript,  "  After  the  death 
of  Edward  which  occurred  probably  in  the  latter  part  of  1657.  his 
widow  married,  Sept.,  1663,  Thomas  Johusou,  by  whom  she  had  one

when  he  was  bapt.  by  the  Rev.  John  Davenport  in  right  of  his  wife, 
Dec.  15,  1644.''  He  in  company  with  Luke  Hitchcock  took  the  free- 
man's oath  July  1,  1644. 

From  the  records  of  the  colony  and  plantation  of  New  Haven  from 
1638  to  1649  :  "  Edward  Hitchcock  fined  for  want  of  fliin,  Jan.  4.

tory  was  just,  etc.  The  widow  says  that  something  tending  to  the 
nature  of  a  will  was  expressed  to  Matthias  Hitchcock  and  Edward 
Patterson  a  little  before  his  death." 

"  Ct.  held  April  5,  1659.  Frances,  widow  of  Edward  Hitchcock, 
with  Matthias  Hitchcock  and  Edward  Patterson,  testify  that  Edward 
Hitchcock  when  sick,  said  he  intended  to  give  his  wife's  kinswoman 
Elizabeth  Perry,  a  childs  part.     Ct.  so  ordered." 

"  Ct.  held  May  3,  1859.  John  and  Samuel,  sons  of  Edward  H — 
deceased,  propounded  for  liberty  to  choose  their  guardian.  John, 
the  eldest,  nominated  Samuel  Andrews,  but  the  Court  advised  him  to 
take  advise  of  Deacon  Miles  and  of  Ensign  Linden  and  of  any  other 
of  his  friends  in  this  matter.  Samuel  was  thought  not  to  be  at  age, 
therefore  the  case  concerning  both  of  them  was  respited  until  another 
time." 

"  Ct.  held  May  11,  1G59.  On  testimony  of  Frances,  widow  of 
Edward  Hitchcock,  as  to  change  in  estate,  a  new  inventory  was  taken, 
amount  £185-l0s-9d.  Deacon  Miles  appraiser,  testified  as  to  cor- 
rectness etc.  Property  divided  among  the  widow,  Frances,  John, 
the  eldest  son,  whose  share  was  by  his  consent  committed  to  Ensign 
Lindon  ;  Mary,  eldest  dau.,  Abigail,  whose  share  was  at  her  desire 
entrusted  to  Sergeant  Munson  ;  Samuel  was  not  of  age  to  choose 
a  guardian,  and  his  share  remains  under  the  care  of  the  Court:  and 
Elizabeth  Ferry,  a  Kinswoman  of  the  widow." 

Oct.  4,  1659   {See  Day  Boo7c3). 

"  Ct.  held  Feb.  7,  1659.  John  Thompson  Jr.,  called  to  show  by 
what  right  he  held  Samuel  Hitchcock  as  his  servant.  John  Thomp- 
son confessed  he  had  no  indenture  but  affirmed  an  agreement  between 
his  father  and  himself  that  Samuel  Hitchcock  should  serve  him  seven 
years  as  an  apprentice,  and  that  he  was  to  teach  him  to  read  and 
write  and  Arithmetic  &  he  was  to  go  to  sea  &  he  to  learn  him  to  do 
his  labor  at  sea,  &  when  he  had  been  with  him  three  years  he  was  to 
have  liberty  of  a  barrel  of  freight  without  charge,  which  agreement 
(he  sd)  was  witnessed  by  Mr?  Bower  and  wife.  Mr.  Bower  testified 
that  at  three  years  ago  Edward  Hitchcock  and  John  Thompson  came 
to  his  house  and  desired  him  to  hear  terms  of  an  agreement  which  he 
could  not  remember  distinctly  but  etc — He  adds  practical  part  of 
navigation  to  be  taught — serve  three  or  four  years  &  then  receive 
freight  to  amount  of  a  barrel  in  all  voyages,  E.  Hitchcock  40s  to  put 
him  in    clothes   &    his  master  to  keep  him  in  cloths  all  the  time. 


APPENDIX.  481 

Samuel  Hitchcock  said  that  his  father  when  sick  said  he  was  glad  he 
had  so  good  a  place  &  that  if  he  died  he  was  to  stay  seven  years. 
Court  said  the  relation  was  imperfect  and  asked  after  John  Thomp- 
sons part,  who  said  Samuel  Hitchcock  could  read  pretty  well  &  was 
learning  to  write  but  denied  that  he  promised  to  teach  the  art  of 
Navigation  but  only  to  do  his  labor  at  sea  &  to  coast  &  rig  a  vessel. 
Mr.  Bower  could  not  remember.  The  Court  declared  there  was  no 
writing  &  no  agreement  proved,  but  that  he  must  expect  that  he 
being  upon  a  voyage  to  England,  the  Court  be  satisfied  that  the 
conditions  were  in  a  probable  way  to  be  fulfilled  concerning  which 
he  is  to  give  account  at  the  next  court."  (The  last  sentence  is  very 
difficult  to  decipher. ) 

"  Ct.  held  March  6,  1659.  (same  case)  Edward  Pattisons  testi- 
mony given.  Court  thinks  there  might  be  such  an  agreement  &  asks 
Johu  Thompson  how  he  intends  to  improve  the  remaining  four  years 
according  to  agreement — inasmuch  as  he  himself  was  bound  for 
England.     Johu  Thompson  replied  that  he  intended  to  take  Samuel 

H with  him,  Court  said  that  it  would  not  be  allowed  on  another 

man's  ship.  Court  ordered  that  John  Thompson  should  retain  Sam- 
uel Hitchcock  until  this  time  twelve  month  for  help  of  his  wife  in  his 
absence  provided  the  terms  &c  are  carried  out."
