PREFACE
SoMK nine years aj;o the author became thoroughly impressed
with the ini|)ortancc of genealogical work, and at once began
her investigation of family history, although with no thought of
publishing the results. Being a woman, and married, she was
not specially interested in the matter of lineal descent, but
struck out in all directions, and was soon engaged in tracing
her lineage in some twenty different lines. One of these lines
led back to William Strobriiige, the history and genealogy of
whose descendants form the principal portion of this work.
At the enii of three months from the time of beginning her
investigation of Strobridge history, her collections filled forty
pages, foolscap, and it was then believed that about all that
related to the Family hail been obtained.
Just then the author's attention was called to a different
ancestral line, antl it was several years before she was able to
resume her Strobridge investigations. In the mean time mate-
rial relating to this Family had accumulated, and when she was
finally at liberty to examine and arrange it, there was found to
be enough new matter to swell the original forty pages of
manuscript to one hundretl and fifty, and while considering the
question of depositing the document with some genealogical
society for safe keeping, a fresh invoice of important records
arrived.
By this time it had begun to seem imperative that such a col-
lection of valuable information should be placed beyond danger
of destruction through any accident, for it was clear that its
iv PREFACE.
loss could never be replaced. It was, therefore, decided an
attempt should be made to get it into print, with what result
the present volume shows.
The author has never laid any claim to the possession of
literary ability, nor has she ever desired to see her name in
print. Believing that thoroughness and accuracy are of more
account in a genealogical work than literary finish, and that
her book will be found to possess these essentials, she trusts
that faults of style will be overlooked.
That she has never been influenced by the hope of a pecuni-
ary return for her labors hardly needs to be said. Her one
hope has been that she might obtain orders enough to meet the
expense of publishing, and so far it has not been realized.
The work is a much larger one than was at first planned for,
which will, of course, increase the cost of publishing propor-
tionably ; but having put her hand to the plow, she does not
intend to turn back.
To all who have in any way assisted in the work she is sin-
cerely grateful. She would particularly mention as having
given valuable service: Mrs. Jane G. (Dean) Jackson, Taun-
ton, Mass.; Mrs. Anna S. Washburn, Middleborough, Mass.;
Miss Mary B. Paul, Windsor, Vt.; Miss Lydia S. Strobridge,
Peacham, Vt.; Mrs. Susan C. Bates, Whitman, Mass.; Mrs.
Marilla Wheeler, Portville, N. Y.; Mrs. Cora H. McLallen,
Trumansburg, N. Y.; Mrs. Elizabeth S. Davis, Penn Yan,
N. Y.; Capt. George A. King, and Frank L. Tinkham, Esq.,
Taunton, Mass.; and many others, quite too numerous to name.
That her book may afford both satisfaction and profit to
those for whom it was prepared is the sincere wish of
THE AUTHOR.

INTRODUCTION
The author hopes that no ..nc interested in any one of the
three l-'amilies traced in this work will fail to read the extracts
here ^iven from the eloquent address of Rev. J. S. Mcintosh,
n. I)., at the second annual session of the Scotch-Irish congress
at Pittsbur^di, Pa., May, 1890, for all members of these three
Families may almost surely know that at some time or other,
ancestors of their own were among the inhabitants of Ulster,
in the North of Ireland. Doctor Mcintosh said:
" Kor some years I have been working over the tales, the
worship, the folk-lore, dress, the habits, the works of home, and
religion and common life, the described features, and the still
surviving forms and faces and hue of eyes and hair to be found
of old, and to this day, in the Strathclyde, and on both sides of
the Borders, and I hold it to be beyond a fair question that by
none of the invasions of these parts, not even the Danish and
the Norman, were the old Britons of the Arthur myths and
sagas either destroyed or driven out. That rich and worthy old
race formed the stock ; into it were grafted the young, the fresh,
and, in many respects, nobler branches, and the new shoots and
later fruits are the Lowlanders of Scotland. Here is where the
Celtic blood comes into our veins, and not from a later hour,
and from Ireland. For the largest enrichment ever brought by
the Celt we must thank the Briton of Arthur, and not the clans-
men of the O'Neil.
"This Lowland race, Briton and Norman, Saxon and Dane,
gave the world a new man — the Border soldier, the pioneer, the
VI INTRODUCTION.
sea-rover, the inventor, the statesman, the revolutionary, the
singer in Robert Burns, and the romancer in Walter Scott.
Aiul nothing in the witching tale of folk-building and folk-breed-
ing do I know more wonderful than God's long toil in making
the Lowland people. As Skene shows (vol. iii, p. 15), at the
time of Alexander III the population of Scotland was composed
of six chief races : Picts, Britons, Scots, Angles, Norsemen
(including Danes and Norwegians), and the Franco-Normans,
'forming a people of very mixed descent, in which the Teutonic
element was more and more predominating.' In the Lowlands,
' the native base of the Brito-Scoto-Anglo-Norman people was
the Romano-Briton.' Freeman, in his 'History of the Norman
Conquest,' and in his story of 'The English People in their
Three Homes,' shows us 'that we adopted, assimilated, absorbed
alike the conquerors and the conquered into the very essence
of our national being.'
" But through and through the old Briton survived till the
final fusion, so all important to us (their Scotch-Irish descend,
ants), in the one rich-blooded Lowland folk. To that rare blood
the scholarly Scot from Dalriada, the pliant, large-limbed Pict,
the poetic Celt, the shrewd, acquisitive Anglo-Saxon, the pa-
tient Frisian, the daring Dane, the breezy Jute, the organizing,
systematic, feudal Norman, brought each his contribution. . . .
"The plantation of the Scot into Ulster kept for the world
the essential and the best features of the Lowlander.
" Now into the right or the wrong of England's way of sett.ing
war-wasted Ulster by planting groups of colonists,* I will not
enter; here, I will take the simple historic fact — thus 't was
done.
"One of the greatest facts in history is the pUuitation of
Ulster; the i6th of April, 1605, should be for us all memorable,
by all historic, ancestral, and constitutional rights, for that i6th
day of April was, as all the state papers show, * The Day of the
Great Charter.'
"On that day was given forth by the English court that char-

and the confiscation of their estates.

ter under which the 'Undertakers' were authorized to start a
movement, the end of which the world sees not yet. But it is
a bright and sunny day of middle May which is in many respects
the still greater day ; for on that Mayday was the landing of the
Lowlanders to restore Ulster, and largely remake history. We
journey to Plymouth Rock to tell of the landing of the Puritans,
and none too often or too fondly ; but let us not forget that the
Ulstcrman has his day, and that America has a right to know
and keep the day of the Ulster landing. By that landing the
seat of a new empire has been found, for imperial by all proof
was that race that came to Ulster to change it from savasre
wilds to smiling fields and busy towns.
" The two cities of Ulster, Belfast and Derry, are the evi-
dences of the transplanted Scot ; Belfast is self-made, Derry is
self-kept. . . In the calendar of state papers for Ireland,
i6i 5-1625, we have among many other clear statements, the
official report of Captain I^ynnar, who, sent by the government
to inspect the Ulster settlers, tells in plain, honest words ex-
actly what he then found
"We have further the accounts in the register of the Priory
Council of Scotland of the great care taken in the selection of
the 'undertakers.' We know that King James, than whom,
when he chose, there was no more canny Scot to be found, gave
his own personal oversight to the plantation. We know that
the Duke of Leno.x, under the royal eyes, drew from Dumbar-
tonshire, that the Earl of Abercorn, from Renfrewshire, that
Hamilton, Montgomery, and Boyd from Ayrshire, and that
from Gallowayshire and Dunfrieshire, Crawford, Cunningham,
Ochiltree, and MacLellan carefully selected colonists for the
new venture.
"In one of the letters of Sir Arthur Chichester, Deputy of
Ireland, wo read as follows: 'The Lord Ucheltrie arrived in
Ireland at the time of our being in Armagh, accompanied with
thirty-three followers, gentlemen of sort, a minister, some ten-
ants, free-holders, and artificers.' In another communication to
government the keen-eyed deputy says: 'The Scottish men
come with better port (i. e. manifest character); they are better

accompanied and attended (than even the English settlers).'
Just as to these western shores came the stronger souls, the
more daring and select, so to Ulster, from the best parts of
lower Scotland came the picked men to be Britain's favored
colonists.
"The Ulsterman was a stranger among strangers.
He was an alien to the alien Celt. Who, what, whence the re-
sistless Scots of Dalriada coming so early unto the Strathclyde,
no ethnologist has yet shown ; but we know enough to affirm
that they were not of the South-Irish Celts. The indubitable
strain of Celtic blood in the Ulstermen of the Plantation was
brought to, not taken from, Ireland. This fact that the Ulster
colonist was a stranger and a favorite, for the time, of England
and her government, wrought in a two-fold way, in the Ulster-
man and against him. . . . The fact that he was the royal
colonist wrought in him the pride, the contempt, the hauteur,
and swaggering daring of a victorious race planted among des-
pised savages. . . . And the rulers of that hour both culti-
vated that feeling and enforced it. The Celt of that day had
nothing to make him winsome or worthy of imitation. Romance
and sentiment may as well be dropped. We have the hard facts
about the clansmen of the O'Neil. The glory and the honor
were with England." . , ,
Doctor Mcintosh presents the following historical picture:
" We are in the old Down-lands, fair lands of the circling sea,
and rolling hills, and silvery streams, and right before us are
hoary ruins. It is the Grey Abbey. It is a genial day of early
July, 1605, and four men and three women drink from the well.
They are worth more than the swift glance we can give, for they
are the fathers and mothers of history. There is Con O'Neale,
wild, wicked, funny Con MacNeale, MacBryan Feartagh O'Neal
— and round him gathers the very richest romance — that wild
dash on the luiglish garrison in the clachan at the Laganford,
now known as Belfast; that all adroit whisking off from the
sleeping soldiers of every wine butt ; the arrest of the raider and
his imprisonment in Carrick castle; the arts and wiles of the
jailer's daughter under the tutelage of Tom Montgomery ; the

flight to London ; the amusing meeting with royal Jamie. Be-
side Con stands his friend in need, the bluff half-smuggler, Cap-
tain Tom Montgomery, who made love to the jailer's daughter,
Annie Dobbin, and carried off Con, and Annie as his own wife.
Beside Tom, rests on his strong staff Hugh Montgomery, of the
noble house of Eglinton, that soldier of fiery soul but of rarest
forethought, whom Prince Maurice of Orange had trusted as a
very right arm.* And the fourth man is the ancestor of the
great Dufferin, he is one James Hamilton, the brainiest of them
all, who came from a Scotch manse, and from the side of a
great-souled Presbyterian minister, to be one of the world-
makers in his deep stamping of Ulster life and Ulster men.
"And their wives, yes, they, too, are worthy. That jolly, mis-
chievous Annie Dobbin, without whom there would have been
no freed Con O'Neal in London, making compact before King
James, with both Montgomery and Hamilton for the earliest
settlement of Down. With her is Mistress Hamilton, that
gentle mother to her loved folks. And noblest, perhaps, of the
three, is the mother of Ulster industry, the 'clever and capable'
Lady Montgomery, who built the water-mills to do away with
the 'quairn stanes'; who overlooked her own model farms ; who
encouraged the growing of flax and potatoes ; who went around
teaching spinning and weaving, both of flax and wool; who
began the weaving of the Ulster ' breakin ' (a sort of home-
spun shepherd plaid), and who lent money to the struggling till
they were able to stand alone — let her live forev^er — 'the
mother of Ulster manufacture.' "t • ■
After a time there came to Ulster to join the Lowlanders
two other sets of colonists ; these were the Puritans and the
Huguenots. " While along the shores of Down and Antrim, and
by the banks of the Six Mile Water and the Main, the colonists
were almost wholly from the Lowlands of Scotland, upon the
shores of Derry and Donegal, and by the banks of the Foyle and

sons mentioned in this work.

tJic Banji, iverc planted by the action of the same far-seeing James
Stuart bands of English colonists.
" Large grants of lands in the escheated counties of Ulster were
bestowed upon the great London companies, and on their vast es-
tates by the Foyle and Bann were settled considerable numbers of
fine old English families*
"The Englishman may be easily traced to this very day in
Derry, Coleraine, Armagh, and Enniskillen. Groups of these
Puritans dotted the whole expanse of Ulster, and in a later
hour, when the magnificent Cromwell took hold of Ireland,
these English colonists were reinforced by not a few of the
bravest and strongest of the Ironsides. . . . Among these
English settlers were not a few who were ardent followers of
George Fox, that man who was in many respects Cromwell's
equal, and in some his master. These Friends came with a
man of great force of character, Thomas Edmundson.
The Friends came to Antrim in 1652, and settled in Antrim
and Down, and hence come the Pims, the Barclays, Grub's,
Richardsons, and many another goodly name of Ulster."
By the second decade of the seventeenth century, "the fame
of this Irish province as a 'shelter of the hunted' was spreading
over Europe, and soon the Puritan and Quaker were joined in
Ulster by another noble man of God's making — the Huguenot
from France. Headed by Louis Cromellin, the}' came a little
later and settl'ed in and around Lisburn, founding many of the
finest industries of Ulster, and giving mighty impulse to those
■ already started, and still later, following the 'immortal William,'
came some brave burghers from the Holland and the Nether-
lands. Thus Ulster became a gathering ground for the very
finest, most formative, impulsive, and aggressive of the free,
enlightened. God-fearing peoples of I^urope.
"It has been said that the Ulster settlers mingled and mar-
ried with the Ii"ish Celt. They did not mingle with the Celt.

INTRODUCTION'. xi
1741. There had been in Ireland before the 'plantation' some
wild islanders from the west of Scotland, whose descendants I
have found in the Antrim 'Glynnes.' They did marry and
intermarry with the natives, but King James expressly forbade
any more of these islandmen being taken to Ulster, and he and
his government took measures that the later settlers of the
'plantation,' should be taken 'from the inward parts of Scot-
land,' and that they should be so settled that they ' may not
mix nor intermarry with the mere Irish. The Ulster settlers
mingled freely with the English Puritans and with the refugee
Huguenots, but so far as my search of state papers, old manu-
scripts, examination of old parish registers, and years of per-
sonal talk with and study of Ulster folk, the Scotch did not
mingle to any aj^preciable extent with the natives.*
"Under the influences of the Puritan, Huguenot, and Hol-
lander, the Ulsterman grew a busy trader, a man of business, a
man of commerce. Ulster became a very hive of busy indus-
tries and activities. The coast traffic with Scotland increased
weekly ; large trade sprang up with Scotland, and soon the
Ulster protlucts and Ulster merchants and shippers were known
in the ])()rts of France and Holland.
"But the sky began to darken. . . . There had been
known in Ulster what has been called beautifully, and with a
sad, lingering regret, 'The Golden. Peaceable Age.' It was the
age of Usher and Echlin as bishops, and Chichester as deputy.
"From 1633, when Wentworth opened his star chamber of
despots, and his high commission courts of persecuting prelates,
till 1704, when the sacramental test grew unbearable, Ulster
was distracted by English tyrants and Laudian prelates. Cava-
lier and churchman sowed the wind, and at Marston and
Yorktown they reaped the whirlwind.
"The wrongs of the once contented colonist were five-fold.
• * There seems to have been great confusion in the minds of the historians of Pennsylvania in re-
gards to the early Scotch-Irish of that State, for we find them speaking of " Scotch," " Scotch- Irish,"
and " Irish " as though they were people of three sorts, when in all probability most, if not all of them,
were either Scotch, or Scotch-English from Ulster. There should be a new histor)' of Pennsylvania
written, setting this important matter straight.
Xll INTRODUCTION.
He was wronged by the State, the church, in his home, his
trade, and in his very grave.
"By the state. . . . From 1633 to 1 714 you have nothing
but promises and falsifications; the promise made when England
was afraid, or her plotting parties had something to gain ; the
falsification, with scoffing laugh and galling sneer, when the
fright was gone and the greed glutted. No wonder the exas-
perated emigrant said at Carlisle, 'I believe England least when
she swears deepest.' He was the son of a Derry Presbyterian,
and he knew how England rewarded her saviors.
"By the church, — working with Wentworth in the State was
Laud in the church. . . . The Jacobite bishops of distracted
Ulster divided their time pretty equally between cowardly policy
against Whig rule and the pitiless robbing of the Non-Con-
formists of all religious freedom. No one has put this into
plainer nor more honest words than my friend, the Rev. Dr.
McConnell, the eloquent rector of St. Stephen's, Philadelphia,
who at our banquet said : ' In the early years of the last
century were living here Scotch Presbyterians, whose ears had
been cut off by Kirk's lambs, whose fathers had been hanged
before their eyes, who had worn the boots and thumbkins while
Leslies stood by and jeered; who had been hunted from their
burning homes by that polished gentleman and staunch Epis-
copalian, Graham, Earl of Claverhouse; who had been brow-
beaten by Irish bishops, and denied even the sympathy of the
gentle Jeremy Taylor; who had been driven from their livings,
fined, imprisoned, their ministerial office derided, the children
of the m^riages they had celebrated pronounced bastards.'
"He was wronged in his home by church and state together.
Landlords and bishops made common cause to spoil the Ulster
yoemanry. As the thrifty and toiling farmer improved his land
he was taxed on his invested capital by the ever-swelling rent,
until he was rack-rented, and then, if he would not pay the
legalized robbery, he was mercilessly evicted. His father and
he had made a waste a garden, while the proprietor idled ; then
by law the idler claimed the fruits of hard toil ; the English
law wrung ' the pound of flesh ' forth, and suffered no Portia to
INTRODUCTION. xiii
plead for the defrauded. Added to these agrarian wrongs were
the denial of education, the shutting of schools, the barring of
colleges by sacramental tests, and the legalized filching of great
endowments for common education. The right of free and
independent voting was refused, and a gag-law of the worst
kind was maintained. The baptism of his children was made
a laughing stock, and legality of marriage by non-Episcopal
clergy officially denied.
"He was wronged in his trade. . One reads with
wonder of the rapid growth of Ulster industries and trade
inside some thirty years, but the admiration changes to hot
anger as you see the young life strangled by selfish and jealous
interference on the part of F^nglish traders and statesmen. The
letters of Lord Fitzwilliam, and ' Dobbs' History of Irish Trade'
tell one of the saddest tales. Act after act was passed forbid-
ding the exportation of wool, horses, cattle, butter, and cheese,
and dead meats. Ireland was excluded from the Navigation Act,
shipping was ruined, and business failed.
"As if all these wrongs in life were not enough to heap on a
man singularly high-mintled, brave, loving right and hating a
lie, he was wronged of a grave. F'or him no sacred 'God's
Acre,' if his own beloved minister was to read simple words
of Holy Writ and utter from the heart the spirit-born, free
prayer.
"And the Ulsterman who endured all this shame and wrong
and open robbery, was the very man who had made and who kept
the land. . . . When he came it was a war-wasted desert,
when he was driven to our shores from it he left behind him
homesteads and fertile fields. He had kept it, and Derry is the
proof; Derry, whose salvation belongs not to Walker, but to
the Rev. James Gordon and his Presbyterian 'boys'; for Gordon
led to the closing of the gates, and Gordon led to the breaking
of 'the boom,* and the relief of the garrison. Yet after that
very siege and defense, the men and party that were the real
saviors of the country and keepers of the gates, were wronged
and wronged until their hearts blazed with justest anger against
an ingrate crew of English liars and tricksters. . . .
XIV INTRODUCTION.
"When his rlg-hteous anger was, in the opening years of the
eighteenth century, at its whitest heat, Holland began to tell on
him ; but more movingly still the stirring American colonies."
Some authority quoted by Rev. Dr. D. C, Kelley, at the
Scotch-Irish congress in 1889, says that "during the first half
of the eighteenth century, Down, Antrim, Tyrone, Armagh,
and Derry were emptied of Protestant inhabitants who were of
more value to Ireland than California gold mines." And
Froude states that in two years which followed the Antrim
evictions thirty thousand Protestants left Ulster for a land
where there was no legal robbery, and where those who sowed
the seed could reap the harvest."
The emigration continued with more or less fluctuation
until 1774.
Doctor Baird, in his "History of Religion in America," states
that "from 1729 to 1750, about twelve thousand annually came
from Ulster to America." "These emigrants landed at the ports
of Boston, Philadelphia, and Charleston. Comparatively few
entered the country by way of New England. Those that did
so, settled mainly in New Hampshire,* while others found their
way to Pennsylvania,! and helped swell the tide which was pour-
ing into this State by way of Philadelphia. These Irish set-
tlers occupied the eastern and middle counties bordering on the
wilderness still occupied by the Indians. Such as landed at
Charleston located themselves on the fertile lands of North and
South Carolina and Georgia.
* Doctor Kelley probably overstates this matter, for those emigrants who remained in and near
Boston must have at least equalled in numbers the New Hampshire settlers, and there were besides
these many families who found homes in Bridgewater and Middleborough, Mass. , and many others
who settled in various towns in western Massachusetts. Not a few went to Maine, and quite a con-
tingent— enough to have a church and pastor of their own (Rev. Mr. Dorrance, at Voluntown) —
settled in Windham co., Conn., and the town of Scotland, in that county, still retains the name given
by and for these people.
t In 1749 William Douglass published (in Boston), his "Summary," in which he says (p. 68),
" Lately the long Leases of the Farmers in the North of Ireland being expired, tlie Landlords raised
their Rents extravagantly. This occasioned an Emigration of many North of Ireland Scots Presby-
terians, with an Intermixture of wild Irish Rotnan Catholics; At first they chose ' New England^
but being brought up to Husbandry, or raising of Grain, called Bread Corn, New England did
not answer so well as the Colonies Southward; therefore at present they generally resort to
Pennsylvania, a good Grain Colony."
' "They erected a Presbyterian Meeting-House in Boston, Mr. John Morehead ih&ir Presbyter."
INTRODUCTION. XV
"The settlers in Pennsylvania afterward turned southward
through the valley of Virginia, till 'meeting those extending
northward from the Carolinas, the emigration passed west-
ward to the country called then beyond the mountains, now
known as Kentucky and Tennessee.' At a later period western
Pennsylvania was occupied by the descendants of the settlers
of the middle counties of the State, with Pittsburgh as a
center. From these points of radiation the Scotch-Irish have
extended to all parts of the country, and, being an intelligent,
resolute, and energetic people, have left their name and mark
in every state of the Union." — (Rev. D. C. Kelley, d. d., at
Pitt.sburgh, Pa., May, 1889.)
Neither in New F^ngland or elsewhere were the Scotch-Irish
welcomed. Drake says, in his "Antiquities of Boston," "Al-
though they were a good acquisition to this place, being indus-
trious and orderly, and in time introduced several valuable arts
and improvements* among the people, yet they at first met with
a cokl reception, being viewed as inferiors and intruders."
Hon. L. A. Morrison, in the "History of Windham, N. H.,"
says, referring to those who went to Worcester, Mass.: "The
antipathy ot the people was ferocious against them. They
formed a church, and Edward Fitzgerald was their first pastor.
They, like all their countrymen, were a hardy, thrifty people, but
their English Congregationalist neighbors were ignorant of
them and their form of worship. They became jealous, and
from the fact that they came from Ireland, called them Irish,
and commenced a strong persecution of them. When, in 1736
or 1740, the frame of their meeting-house was erected, the Con-
gregationalists rallied and tore it down. . . . They were
not permitted to build a house of worship, and soon after 1740
dispersed, some to Otsego co., N. Y.; some to Coleraine, Pal-
mer, and Pelham, Mass. Probably no people who ever landed
in America have been so much misunderstood and so much mis-
* They introduced flax spinning, and it is claimed that the limn wheel was the invention of one
of their number, Archibald Thompson of Bridgewater (North Parish), Mass., ancestor of two
branches of the Strowbridge family. It is also said/hat the cultivation of the potato in this country
was introduced by the Scotch-Irish.

represented as the Scotch settlers of Windham and London-
dery, N. H., and other places settled in different parts of the
country by this same hardy, unconquerable race. The ignor-
ance and stupidity of other classes in relation to them and their
history has been unbounded. They were called Irish when not
a drop of Irish blood flowed in their vpins ; they were called
Roman Catholics when they hated that sect almost to ferocity,
— when they had rolled back the papal forces, and had endured
the horrors of starvation, shed their lilood in mountain fast-
nesses and on many battle fields, to uphokl the Protestant faith,
and had ventured their all for the British crown against the
Irish Papists."
In Pennsylvania, of which State they formed a large propor-
tion of the early settlers, the Scotch-Irish encountered the
greatest opposition and injustice.
In 1856 George Chambers, himself of Scotch-Irish ancestry,
published his "Tribute to tlie Principles, Virtues, Habits, and
Public Usefulness of the Irish and Scotch Early Settlers of
Pennsylvania." He says, "Justice has not been done to the
Scotch and Irish race in the histories of American colonies and
states. Some compilers of local history in Pennsyl-
vania have accorded to the Scotch and Irish early settlers re-
ligious and moral character of a hi-h standard, as well as great
public service and usefulness, whilst the authors of some his-
torical collections and nuinoirs liave indulged in wholesale
accusations to their reproach. . . h^rom the acquaintance
of the writer with the character of the Irish and Scotch early
settlers who were the early actors in the settlement of the pro-
vince of Penn.sylvania, he affirms that the accu.sations and re-
proaches thus imputed lo the Scotch-Irish race in Pennsylvania
are unfounded and unjust.
"Individuals of the race have done wrongs against society
and their brethren, but not to a greater degree than were per-
petrated elsewhere in civilized communities of the same num-
ber in like circumstances. The offenses of a few infatuated,
vicious, or turbulent men, under a feeble government, are not
to be imputed as a lasting stigma and reproach to all.
INTRODUCTION. Xvii
"Were their evil deeds so many and great that the mantle
of charity can neither conceal nor cover them? If so, where is
the evidence of them? They were men who laid broad and
deep the foundations of a great province. . . . They were
more than ordinary men to hold the plow and handle the axe
or ply the shuttle. They had other qualities we would infer
from their works, their enterprise, energy, bravery, and pat-
riotism, and they were not surpassed for lofty virtue and con-
sistent piety. . . . They were generally of steady habits,
of religious and moral character. . . ,
"Simultaneous with the organization of congregations by
these settlers, was the establishment of school-houses in every
neighborhood. . . . The descendants of the Irish and
Scotch, in whatever district they may have cast their lot and
fixed their stakes, are amongst the most prominent, virtuous,
active and useful, industrious and enterprising of the com-
munity. . .
"Though Pennsylvania has not elevated one of her own sons
to the presidency of the United States, yet the Scotch-Irish
race of the Union has furnished three of our presidents,* and a
majority of the United States senators since the organization
of the federal government. They have, also, from their ranks
in Pennsylvania, given to our commonwealth five of her gov-
ernors, and a majority of the men who have composed and still
compose the supreme and other courts of the State. . . .
In all stations under the national or state governments, civil or
military, the men of this race have generally been prominent,
eminent, patriotic and faithful, wise, judicious and deliberate
in council, resolute, unwavering and inflexible in the discharge
of duty, and when called by their country to face the public en-
emy in arms, there were none more brave, fearless, and in-
trepid."
In a recent magazine article by Henry Cabot Lodge, entitled
"The Distribution of Ability in the United States," a most re-
markable showing in favor of the Scotch-Irish race is made.
* It is now claimed that Jefferson, Madison, Jackson, Polk, Buchanan, Lincoln, Grant, and
Harrison have all Jaelonged to the Scotch-Irish race.
XVIU INTRODUCTION.
Of course the EnglisJi race stands first in nearly everything,
but in the eighteen specified professions, callings, and occupa-
tions, the Scotch-Irish come next to the EnglisJi in all excepting
two.
The history of the race in America has never yet been written.
When it shall have been, no member of that race will have cause
to be ashamed of the connection.
ARRANGEMENT.
t
The arrangement followed in this work is nearly identical
with that used in the "Dows or Dowse Genealogy," from which
some hints were taken. The plan is very simple and needs no
explanation. It also possesses the merit of being impartial, the
female members of families receiving the same consideration as
the male members.
ARMS.
An illustration of the Trowbridge Coat of Arms is given in
this volume because it was thought that it would prove of
interest to many readers. From the descriptions of the Tro-
bridge, Trowbridge, and Strobridge arms, on page 3 of this
work, it is evident that the three families owning them were ot
the same stock. The illuminated sketch, from which the illus-
tration was made, was presented to the author, and since no rep-
resentation of the Strobridge arms was obtainable, it was decided
that zvith an explanation, the Trowbridge illustration might be
admitted into the book. Of course it is impossible, with our
meagre knowledge, to tell whether there was any direct connec-
tion between the titled Strobridges of Devonshire, England,
and those of the name who settled in this country over one
hundred and fifty years ago, although the chances are that there
was not.

JOHN STROBRIDGE, of the foregoing list, was un-
doubtedly the same one who was married to Elizabeth Andrews,
at Dorchester, IMass., Mch. 28, 172 1-2, by Rev. Joseph Morse,
and had son Samuel, b. May, 1723. (See 21st Report Boston
Record Commissioners, pp. 72, 109.) The above John may have
been brother to the following :
WILLIAM, JAMES, and THOMAS STROBRIDGE,
brothers, came to Middleborough, Mass., exact date of arrival
not known.
2 GENEALOGY.
THOMAS STROBRIDGE, brother of William, d. Aug.
6, 1724, 3e. 25 ; is buried at Thompson Hill cemetery, Lakeville,
Mass.
JAMES "STRAWBRIDGE," brother of William, bought of
William a lot of land in Middleborough, Mass., containing
18 1-4 acres ; date of deed* Mch. 5, 1738-Q; paid ;^40.
JAMES "STROWBRIDGE," brother of William, d. Feb.
7, 1773, X. 79; buried at Thompson Hill cemetery, Lakeville,
Mass. Neither Thomas nor James is known to have left any
descendants, and both were probably unmarried.
According to family tradition, WILLIAM STROBRIDGE^.
ancestor of the family whose genealogy will be found in the fol-
lowing pages, was b. about 1690, in some place near London-
derry, in the north of Ireland; m. Margaret Henry in 1716;
had dau. Mary, b. in Ireland ; came with wife and child to
America between 1718 and 1722 (probably about 17 19). He
was a blacksmith, lived in Middleborough (West Parish, now
Lakeville), Mass., where he d. Nov. 14, 1777, ve. Sy. His
wife d. Dec. 8, 1776, ae. 83.
From her earliest remembrance the author has been accus-
tomed to hear that her Strobridge ancestors were "Scotch-
Irish" — that is, persons of Scotch blood born in, or residents
of, Ireland, and not until within a very short time has she sup-
posed there could be any doubt about it, but of late the question
whether she is justified in claiming a Scotch origin for those
ancestors has arisen, and she is forced to admit that the object-
ors have all the evidence there is in their favor.
She has long known of the Trowbridge or Strobridge or
Strawbridge family of Devonshire, Eng, ; but, supposing it to be
a branch of an older one, to which the Scotch family also be-
longed, made no attempt to connect with it. Such investiga-
tions of the matter as she has been able to make, however, re-
veal no information concerning a Scotch branch, and the proba-
bility now seems to be that the early ancestors of William Stro-
bridge, and of the various Strawbridges who are known to have
come to America from Ireland, went to Ireland from England.
Having arrived at this conclusion, it may be well to give in
this connection all that the author has learned of the Devon-
shire family.

STROBRIDOE FAMILY. 9
'lr(m\)r\(\^c, who came from Taunton, Somersetshire, Ent^., to
Dorchester, Mass., in 1636," we take the following;:
"The very ancient family of Trowbridfje derives its name
from its ancient inheritance Trowbridge, in the Parish of Credi-
. ton, in Devonshire, where it resided for many centuries, and
which was the property of Peter de Trowbrid;;e in the reitjn of
ICdward I. This l)arton was sohl by the Trowbridge family about
the year 172010 Samuel Strode. Esq.. whose son conveyed it
to (iiles Yard, Esq. It now (1 853) belongs to Miss Eliz. Yard,
one of his daughters and co-heiresses. Trowbridge House
is occupied by her uncle, John Yard, Esq."
Also this: "The name in the earlier records is variously
si)elled thus: Trobridge. Troubridge, Trowbridge, Throw-
bridge, Trobblebridge, Slrobridgc. and Strawbridge. The mode
of spelling now generally adopted is Trowbriilge," from which
latter remark it is to be inferred that the names Strobridge and
Strawbridge are not now common in England.
(The author is ac(|uainted with a lacly who is a native of
Ashl)urton, County Devonshire, Eng., who was there a pupil in
a school kept by one Thomas Strawbridge, about 1S50. The
gentleman had a brother whose name was William, but the lady
knows nothing of the history or connection of the brothers.
The circumstance proves that the name was not extinct in
Devonshire in 1850.]
/ I''roni "l^urke's General Armor)*" we copy the following,
which were taken from the "Herald's Visitation of Devonshire
in 1620" :
"Trowbridge, Co. Devon. John Trobridge, Esq., of Tro-
bridge (visit Devon, 1620). son of Robert Trobridge. grandson
of Richard Trobridge, and great-gramlson of Thomas Trobridge,
all of same place."
"Or over water ppr. a bridge towered gu."
"Strobridge (Modbury, liigbury, and Colleton, Co. Devon).
(John Strobridge, aged 30, at visit. Devon, 1620, son and heir
apparent of Arthur Strobridge of Modbury. grandson of John
Strobritlge of Bigbury, and great-grandson of John Strobridge
of Colleton.) "
" Or over water ppr on a bridge of 3 arches gu a tower of the last and
pennon hoisted thereon."
The following pedigree was received by Mr. W. C. Stro-
bridge of Stamford. Conn., from Rev. Mr. Huntington, author
of the history of Stamford, who obtained it (probably) during
his investigations in England :

To some it may seem a waste of words to say that William
Strobridge could not have been a descendant of Thomas
Trowbridge, the ancestor of the American Trowbridges, but we
fear that some members of this family have been counting" on
the establishment of the connection. Trowbridge may have
been the original name, but John Strobridge, of Colleton,
Devonshire, could not have been born later than 1524, which
must have been towards a century earlier than the time of
Thomas. Trowbridge, the emigrant. We may be sure, then, that
the name Strobridge is at least 367 years old.
In the Introduction will be found some mention of the
founding of English colonies in Ireland by the side of Scotch
colonists, and here we must look for the explanation of the
application of the term Scotch-Irish to people of English origin.
It is the author's firm conviction that the persons who have
been so called, had so much more of Scotch than English blood
in their veins, that they were rightly considered to be Scotch,
even when they bore English names.
The first reliable date in connection with William and Mar-
garet Strobridge is from the Middleborough town records. The
next one is from the records of the First Church (Cong.) of
Middleborough, and reads: "Sept. 9, 1722 [which evidently
STROBKIDGE FAMILY. 5
means the time he joined the church j, William Strowbridge
from Donau^h, Ireland, removed 1725 to West Parish [another
part of the town, now Lakevillc], Middleborough, died Nov. 14,
1777, aged J<7"; also: "Margaret Strowbridge, from Donaugh,
Ireland, di.smis.sed 1726 to West Parish; died Dec. 8, 1776,
aged «3 "
There is no doubt about their having been Presbyterians, but
it is well known that at the time it was considered imperative
that a person should be a member of some church, and as there
was then no Presbyterian church with which they could connect
themselves, they did the next thing, joined the Congregation-
alists, and remained with them probably to the end of their
lives, although their children appear to have been a few years
later among the followers of Rev. John Morehead.
A deed to William " Strawbridge " of Middleborough, dated
Dec. 3, i72iS, is recorded at Plymouth, Mass., from which it
appears that he did not at once become the owner of land.
Other deeds dated Sept. 23, 1729; Feb. 12, 1731; Apr. 18,
•733; July '. '736; Aug. I. 1741, May i, 1742; Nov. 17,
1743; June 30, 1744; Nov. 11. 1747. (Those of 1741, 42, '43
anil '47 read Strobridi^r, all the others Straivbrtdi^f.) _
There are also four later deeds to William Strobridge. He is
mentioned as a husbandman, and all the early deeds seem to be
of woodland.
The author has seen the original deed from William "Straw-
bridge" of Middleborough, of 18 1-4 acres land in Middle-
borough to James "Strawbridge"; consideration, -£40; date,
Mch. 5. 1738-9. This ancient document is the property of
Mrs. Harriet H. (Dean) liarstow, of Taunton, Mass., a great-
trreat-irranddauL'htor "f William Strobridge, senior. A fac-
CJ ^ this deed
is here given. For some time the author was inclined to the
opinion that the early members of the family wrote the name
Strawbridge, and that Strobridge was a comparatively recent
mode of spelling; but the signature to this deed disposes of
the question, though why the name should be found spelled
Straivbridge in the very document signed Strobridge is inex-
plicable. Rev. John Morehead evidently considered the
name identical with Strawbridge, for in his records of the
baptisms ot William Strobridge's grandchildren, he invariably
wrote it Strawbridiie.

MARY STROBRIDGE 2, dau. of William (1), was b.
171 7 or 1718 (there is authority for both dates). Some accounts
say she was b. in Ireland, others that she was b. on the
voyage to America; m. in Middleborough, Mass., to John
MoNTGOMERV, Jan. 30, 1735, by Benjamin Ruggles of Middle-
borough, and d. May 16, 1790. It is said that John Montgom-
ery was b. in Scotland, and lived there until he was 7 years of
age, when his parents removed to the north of Ireland ; that
he came to America with William Strobridge, his guardian,
when about 12 or 14 years of age. There is also a tradition
that he came in company with Rev. John Morehead, but this
is certainly incorrect, for Mr. Morehead did not arrive much, if
any, before 1727.
The inscription on John Montgomery's gravestone shows
that he was b. not far from 1708, and allowing that he was
only 12 years old at the time of his arrival in America, it must
have occurred in 17 19 or '20. All traditions — for there seem
to be no authentic accounts — agree that the Strobridges,
Pickens, and McCullys, who settled near each other in Middle-
borough, came from the north of Ireland at the same time, but
the exact date of their emigration is a matter of dispute and
varies from 1717 to 1722, to suit the circumstances.
William Strobridge was a blacksmith, and of him John
Montgomery learned that trade. It is said that he was a man
of considerable wealth. In 1729 Rev. John Morehead's church
was organized in Boston, and John Montgomery was one of
twelve elders of the church, each of whom had special super-
vision over a portion of the members of the church, who were
scattered about in various parts of New England. Elder
Montgomery went once a year to Boston to represent his own
charge, and on the Sabbath preceding his departure special
prayers were offered for his safe return. Mis gravestone in

the conclusion thai he; ^ lery, and her
brother. Elder John, were in some way related to William Mont-
j^omerie, of Hri;,'end, Ayrshire, Scotland, who married Isabel
lUirnctt, in Edinburgh, Jan. 8. 1684; came to America 1701-2,
and settled in New Jersey.
Elder John Montgomery gave to his children names which
|)revailcd in the Hrij^end family, viz : John, William, Thomas,
Robert, Huijh, Isabel, Jean, and M.ir^-arct, while Sarah, his
sister, named her five sons by her first marriage, William,

who settled in New Jersey in 1701-2. hack t(^ the first of the
name known to history.
Although the relationship between this William and the John
and Sarah in whom the author is particularly interested can not
at present be shown, she feels sure that such relationship ex-
isted, and that it is her own line which she has traced back.

"tlcorRe llordtin, Born .Xucu-^t yc J5. 1716,

The above as appears of Voluntown Records."
lO GENEALOGY.
They lived in what was then the West Parish of Middlebor-
ough (now Lakeville), Mass. Mr. S. was one of the selectmen
of MiddleboroLigh in 1779 ^^^^ 1780, and appears to have had a
good deal to do with real-estate matters. He d. Nov. 9, I795»
and his son-in-law, Joseph Dean, was appointed administrator
to his estate. Mrs. Jean (Gordon) Strobridge survived her hus-
band over nineteen years, dying at her daughter's, Mrs. Joseph
Dean's, Feb. 8, 181 5.
Her gravestone says she was in her 84th year, but if the
Voluntown record is reliable, she was past 86 when she died.
She and her husband are buried in the Thompson Hill ceme-
tery at Lakeville, Mass. Mr. Strobridge's tombstone has this
inscription :
"Memento Mortis
Henry Strobridge, died Nov. 7, 1795,
aged 74
Look, oh ! my offspring, see, my friends, '
The mandate which our Saviour sends;
See liow the living now are hurled
Before the Judge of all the world."
Among a lot of ancient documents owned by Mrs. Harriet
B. (Dean) Barstow of Taunton, Mass., a descendant of Henry
Strobridge, there are several deeds which give some idea of
his land transactions, as well as of the different ways in which
the family surname was spelled at different times and by differ-
ent individuals :
A''o7'. 14, 1747, "Philip Padelford, gentleman," deeded to "Henry Stro-
bridg, laborer," 195 acres of land in Aliddleborough and Taunton; consid-
eration "^1300, Old Tienor."

13. 4. Lawfull money."
Witnesses, ) On the back of this deed is the quitclaim
William Canedy. [- of William Strobridge, Senior, dated
Elizabeth Canetly. ) Nov. 5, 1764.
The antlinr, in endeavoring to trace the Gordon .incestry of family (3), obtained only tlic following
additional items :
" ("leorge Gordon m. Jciniet Gibson, Dec. 20, 1748.
Robert Clordon ni. Jane Kelson, Apr. 21, 1757.

Pickens ol Freetown ksvc a deed of land to John I'iukImiu ^V..;. ji, kci;i>tr\- of Deeds, p. qg). It
would seem from this, th.it if Thom.i» Pickens came with thr .Sirobridgo to .\merica, he did not at

acconiiiig to the I Thomas Pickens of Middlebor-

signatun- »>- viched is dated May 5, 1739. The same deed
h.-»s an nt nn the back by two witnesses who saw
Thomas Pickens, dtcfmstj, sign the deed, which .mt is dated November of the same year.
Another record is a deed from Thomas Pickens of Freetown to Nathaniel HoUoway and Isaac
Pierce of MiddleU^rough, in 174s (Ibid, vol. 39, p. J3q).
There is also a deed recorded i74g in vol. 40, p. 133, of land sold by Thomas Pickens of Freetown,
in I73(', to Flkanah Leonard of Middleborough. ,
The following extract frvim a letter of Mr. John Pickens of New Bedford to his son John m Bos-
ton, Ian. 6, 1807,' will be found of interest, for the writer must have known his grandparents, Thomas
and KLiryiaret Steele, and could therefore sjieak with some cen.iintv. He says :
•• Of the Father's side. .Mv cr.mdfather. Thomas Picken ithe final s was added in this country)
with his wife (maiden name was Rlanjaret Steel), and their children were Jane, Andrew, and J^nies,
twins about two vears old, emigrated to .\merica about the year 1717, one year more or less, and landed
at Boston from a rough and tedious vovage of eleven weeks." [Right here a note must be made.

JAMES STROBRIDGE2, son of William (1), was b. 1729,
in Middleborough (West Parish, now Lakeville), Mass. ; m.
Mary Gordon of Voluntown, who was b. at Vokintown Oct. 6,
1733, and was a sister of the wife of his brother Henry. In
1754 Moses Inglee of Halifax, Mass., deeded a piece of land
containing 22 1-2 acres to James Strowbridge, Junr. ["Junr"
seems to have been added to his name in the document, in order
to distinguish him from his uncle, James Strobridge, who was
then living at Middleborough.] This land was afterwards con-
veyed to Henry Strobridge, an older brother of James, and by
^yy^__ ^ C\ him deeded in 1788 to
^-^ ^^ bridge removed to
Northficld, Mass., previous to or in 1783, and d. there Oct. 23,
181 1, ac. 82; his wife d. Mch. 3, 1817, ae. 84; both are buried
and have tombstones in an old cemetery at Northfield.
James Pickens d. Mar. 22, 1800, in his 84th year, and must have been b. about 1717. If two years old
al the time of emigration, that must have been not later than 1719. If a year old or over, might have
come in 171S, Now if Thomas Pickens and family came to America in 1718 or '19, and in compnny
with the Stroljrid^es and others, tlicn tlic latter were here before 1720 or 1723, as claimed by some of
the Montgomery family, and tlie author thinks the evidence is altogetlier in favor of 171S or '19.]
They lived in a little town in Milton, thence went to Frcetowii/soon after (?), settled in the south-
westpart of Middlelxirough, on land whicli some of tlicir grandchildren still inherit.
They came from a town called Ballygully, near Coler.aine, in tlie north part of Ireland. After they
came to this country they had two sons and two daughters: Martha, Jolin, Margaret, and Thomas;
whetlier they had any that died young I do not know. >'
The remainder of tlie letter is entirely genealogical, and concerns branches of tlie family not
related to the Strobridges, and will liave to be omitted for lack of space.
* In '778, on the roll of Capt. Amos Wasliburn's company, raised in Middleborough, appear the
names of James Pickens, Corp., Alexander, Samuel, and William Pickens, privates, and in Capt. Job
Pierce's company, on duty at Rhode Island in 1777, are found Ihe names of Samuel Pickens, Corp.,
and William Pickens, private.

* Tlie parents of Boice Cooper were Francis and Elizabeth (dau. of John North) Cooper, who
who came from Cloneen, Kings Co., Ire., and settled at Broad Bay, Me. Elizabeth North was of a
very respectable family, many of whose members have held high positions under government. It is
said that the father of Boice Cooper was a man of property, who emigrated from Ireland in a brig of
liis own, with a numerous train of dependents, bound to him for a certain number of years to pay for
their passage over. He resided first at Portsmouth and afterwards at Pemaquid, coasting in his own
vessel, his wife and family sometimes making their home on board. Many amusing stories about Boice
Cooper are related in " Eaton's Annals of Warren, Me.," from which work the foregoing was taken,
and to which the author is indebted for most of the records of Robert Montgomery's descendants.

Capt. Job Pierce,
and d. Mch. 12,
1846. Signatures to
a deed given by Robert Strobridge and wife to his father, in
1798, are here reproduced.
In an article furnished for the Middleborough Gazette by Gen.
E. W. Pierce of Assonet, Mass., in Sept., 1889, he says: "One
of the most widely known of the Strobridge family residing in
Middleborough (that part now Lakeville), a century ago, was
Lieut. Robert Strobridge. His landed property was extensive,
and deemed to be very valuable. His title of lieutenant was
derived from the fact that while the Revolutionary war was still
progressing (July i, 1781) he was commissioned by Governor
Hancock as lieutenant of one of the military companies in Mid-
dleborough ; Abraham Shaw being at the same date commis-
sioned as captain, and John Smith ensign. Lieut. Robert Stro-
bridge had previously had a little of actual war experience, for,
in the capacity of sergeant of Capt. Amos Washburn's company,
he had ])articipated in the defense of Old Dartmouth (now New
Bedford, Fairhaven, and Acushnet) in the month of Sept., 1778.
Captain Washburn's company was all raised in Middleborough,
and perhaps all within the limits of what is now the township
of Lakeville.
* r)ca. William Nelson was son of Thomas and Hope (Higgins) Nelson, grandson of William,
Ir., an<l Kiilh fKoxwell) Nelson; great-grandson of William and Martha (Knrd) Nelson. This
branch of Nelsons was among the earliest pnrthasers and pioneers of ancient Middleborough. Mrs.
Klizabeth (Nelson) Strobridge was sister of three distinguished Calvinist Uaptist clergymen, viz.,
Rev. William, b. 1741, d. 1806; Rev. Samuel, b. 1748, d. 1832; Rev. Ebeneier, b. 1753, d. 1825. —
Gen. E. If. Pierce.

"To show with what alacrity, patriotic willinj^ncss, and com-
mendable readiness the Scotch-Irish element of West Middle-
borough (now Lakeville) responded to that cry of distress from
their adopted country, "The British soldiery are landing," we
will give s«)me of the names known from Captain Washburn's
company, being those of men who, at the risk of life and
limb, helped drive the invader from our shores : Lieut. An-
drew McCully, Scrgt. Robert Strobridge, Corp. James
I'ickens, Hugh Montgomery, Alexander Pickens, Andrew
Pickens, Jr., John Pickens, Henry Strobridge, and William
Strobridge. Of the above list six or more must have been de-
scendants of the emigrant William Strobridge. Lieut. Robert
Strobridge was electetl selectman of Middleborough the year that
he died, 1790. His death, which took place Aug. 14, 1790, was
very sudden and wholly unexpected. Coming home from labor
in the harvest field, besought to quench his thirst with a cooling
draught of water, and seeking to obtain it he lost the bucket in
the well, ami going down to regain the bucket his heated system
received such a shock that he lived barely long enough to get
out of the well. His remains rest in the ancient cemetery near
Thompson Hill, .so called, in I^akeville, and the spot is marked
by a substantial slab of dark-colored stone, upon which is legibly
inscribed the date of his death and age (39) at the time."
Tradition has informed us that the inventory of the effects of
Lieutenant Strobridge showetl him to have been in the posses-
sion of greater wealth than any man in the town of Middlebor-
ough had previously been known or supposed to possess.

They c.imc (rom Chard in Soiner-^ '-'"■■ K- ■ • ■ ■■ ^' ■■' ■ Taunton, from which place
came some others of the e.irly s<-i;. r new home in honor of the
one they had left. It is said th.it i , .ime with a final e.
In i84«j, when the |>amphlet from which this account is taken was published, nothing positive was
known of the ancestry of the brothers in England, but it was believed on the authority of Rev. John
H. IVane, r. R, R., an eminent antiquary of London, that John and Walter Deane belonged to the
f.tmily of " llene of Denelands," and the coat of arms of this family is represented in the pamphlet
referred to.
" John and Walter Deane took up their farms on the west bank of the river, about one mile from
the center of the present (1S40) vill.tge of Taunton. Houses occupying the same lots as those erected
by thcni. and nearly the exact sites, are at this day owned and occupied by the descendants of each.
Ihe n>ad which passed their dwellings h.is been called Dean street to this day. Both took the free-
man's oath at Plvmouth Dec. 4, 163S.
" By a list of the nroprieiors of Taunton, 1650), made for a division of lands, it is shown that the
families of John and \Valier Deane consisted of eight persons each." (From the "Deane Family,"
published iS^cj, by William Reed Deane, assisted by others.)
Walter Deane, born in Chanl, Eng., between! 1^15 and 1620 (according to Rev. S. Deane), mar-
ried a daughter of Richard Strong of Taunton, Eng., who came to New England with her brother,
Elder John Strong, afterwards of Northampton, in the Mary and John, i6jo. (Rev. S. Deane.)
In iN)t Walter Deane's wife, Eleanor, joined him in making a conve\"ance. This is the latest
date at which it is known that either was li\nng. Mr. Deane was a tanner by trade. The names of
but three children of his have been ascenained, although it is thought probable that in 1659 he had

she d. in Taunton Sept. 2, 1842. "Joseph Dean was frequently
out during the Revolutionary war, and had the command of a
company called out to support the court, during Shays' Rebel-
lion." (Mss. letter of Rev. Artemas Dean, son of Joseph.)
He owned a saw-mill in Taunton, and it is said that while
Lafayette was in Newport, R. I., during the Revolutionary war,
the boards used for the barracks were sawed at the mill of Jo-
seph Dean. Mr. Dean also kept a public house. The dwelling
that he built is still in good repair. In it Mrs. Jean (Gordon)
Strobridge and her dau., Mrs. Anna (Strobridge) Dean, spent
their last days, and under its roof Mrs. Amy (Vickary) Dean, the
aged widow of Paddock Dean, is quietly passing her declining
years.

1745 ; was a cloth draper and had a mill at Ketch brook, East
Windsor, Conn.; was the first to manufacture Scotch plaid in
America. He was killed in a skirmish between Tory dragoons
and Connecticut troops, May 20, 1780. It was at a time when
Benedict Arnold was sent by Tryon, the British governor of
New York city, to harass the Connecticut coast. General Put-
nam was defending the coast. Jabez Fox raised a company of
militia and went to Putnam's aid. A superior force of Ar-
nold's men surrounded Sergeant Fox and his recruits in a brick
school-house ; the militia fought until their ammunition gave
out, and then fled across a field, pursued by the dragoons. Fox
was the last to leave, and was overtaken as he was getting over
a fence, and his head was cut off by a blow from an English broad-
sword. One other of his party was killed in the skirmish,
and six of the dragoons. All were buried in one grave, which
Capt. Jabez (the son) visited 40 years afterwards. The hat
which Jabez (the father) wore at the time, with a bullet hole in
it, and his coat and sword are in a museum in the town of
Becket, Mass., where they had a patriotic celebration over
them about 20 years since (1888). Jabez Fox was a clothier
in East Windsor, Conn., and put a dam across Ketch brook
just below where the Thompsonville carpet factories now are.

Mrs. Susan C. Bates, a descendant of William Strobridge, con-
tributes the following anecdote: "After the marriage of my
grandfather, William Strobridge, to Hannah Crane, he went
with his ox team to move her goods to Middleborough. After
they were packed on the wagon, his wife's father, Ebenezer
Crane, came out and .said to my grandfather, 'Doctor Stro-
bridge, I lend you these things.' My grandfather immediately
took his oxen from the team, saying: 'I can borrow things
nearer home,' and it was not until his father-in-law said, 'I give
you these things,' that he put his oxen to the team and drove
from the yard."

WILLIAM STROHRIDGE'\ son of James (7), w^s b. Oct.
19, 1756, at Mid(llcb(>roii<;h (West Parish, now Lakeville), Mass.;
bapt. Nov. 2, 1756, by Rev. John Morehead, pastor of the Scotch
Presbyterian church of Boston; m. (i) Sept. 25, 1779, ^^ Mid-
dleborou^h, by Rev. Ebenezer Hinds, Susannah Hinds, dau. of
the officiating; clergyman. She d. suddenly not long after their
marriage. Mr. Strobridge was studying for the ministry with
his father-in-law at the time of his wife's death. This event
threw him into a state of great darkness and despondency, caus-
ing him not only to turn his back on the ministry, but to lose
for the time his faith and trust in God; and for many years after
his second marriage, his wife, Hannah Tl'ttle, to whom he was
m. Oct. 10, 1784, often found him weeping for his lost but still
beloved Susannah. He resided in Claremont, N. H., for a num-
ber of years; rem. to Harnet, V't., about 1803.
Mr. Strt)bridge was a member of the Vermont General As-
sembly, in October, 1806. At that date was one of the mem-
bers of the Land Tax committee. (From Governor and Coun-
cil, Vermont, Vol. v., p. 106.)
He served in the army during the whole of the Revolutionary
war, and wore crape on his left arm for 30 days after the death
of General Washington.
The following amusing anecdote of William Strobridge is re-
lated by his grandson, Wm. Harvey Strobridge of Brooklyn, N.
Y.: "In the young tlays of his large family, while living in
Claremont, N. H., he spent an evening at a hotel with some
friends. Returning late (or early i*) he slept soundly. During
the morning his wife went to his bedside repeatedly, saying, ' Wil-
liam, tlon't you want some breakfast .'' ' but William only stretched
himself and relapsed again into slumber. Making a final visit
to the bedroom iiiswife began putting things to rights. Lifting
his pantaloons from a chair, out of a pocket fell a piece of paper
containing the following:
' William Strobridge, To . Dr., for six suppers, $3.00.
Rec'd payment,
Signed '
"She disturbed him no more. After a considerable time he
called, 'Hannah, isn't it late.'' She answered, 'Yes, William,
but I would n't hurry ; if you had six suppers last night, they
ought to last you through the day.'"
It may interest some descendants of W^illiam Strobridge to
know that his old Queen Anne clock and desk are carefully pre-

struction of which only the best materials were used, and when
finished was the most elegant dwelling in town. He died Sept.
22, 1805, and left no children, so the estate passed into the
hands of his father, who was the only legal heir. [It must have
gone rather hard with the widow to see the large property
which she had inherited from her father taken from her and
given to her father-in-law. — M. S. P. G.] After the just claims
of the widow had been satisfied they assigned to her the house
and lands of her late husband in Freetown, together with the

ROBERT STROBRIDGE, JR.^ .son of Lieut. Robert

child, his mother was appointed his guardian. He was one of
three heirs to the estate of his grandfather, Henry Strobridge,
and his share was "28 dollars, two and one-half cents." His
mother's receipt for this money is still in existence. His father,
who d. in 1790, left a large estate, to which Robert and his sister
Anna were the only heirs. He lived in Freetown, Mass., where
he was a man of great popularity.
" Mr. Strobridge was a store-keeper at Assonet, in company
with I'^benezer Pierce and Stephen Pickens. The firm transacted
a large and lucrative business. He was four times elected to the
legislature. His partner was the first postmaster of Assonet,
and when he resigned, on account of ill health, Mr. Strobridge
succeeded him, and continued in the position until his death."

ROBICRT DEAN^ son of Anna Strobridge (22), was b.

Peace in Ti\'ertown, by the name of Hicks, on the 26th Day of

only Daughter of Samuel Padelford."
The above is from Mr. Dean's own memorandum of his mar-

other accounts give as Sarah Susan Leavitt Padelford. They
lived at Taunton, Mass., where he d. May 24, 1822 ; Mrs. Dean

Mr. Dean was the seventh in lineal descent from Walter Deane,
one of the first settlers of Taunton in 1637. After attending
school and Bristol Academy, at the age of 16 he commenced busi-
ness as a clerk in the house of Field, Fobes & Co., in Phila-
dclpliia. His father dying in May, 1S22, at the age of 46 yrs., re-
(juired the return home of Robert to assist his mother in the set-
tlement of a large estate. In 1S24, at the age of 19, he succeeded
his father in the manufacturing business at the Dean Cotton Mill,
Fast Taunton (sometimes called " Hear hole"), holding that agency
twelve years. Retiring from this position, he entered upon the
management of the Hrick Mill, in connection with Crocker &
Richmond. He served as assignee with Governor Morton, of Ho-
ratio Leonard & Co. (East Taunton Iron Works), afterwards
of the firm of Morse & Dean, manufacturers of machinery, sev-
eral years. Mr. Dean was the manager and treasurer of the
Dean Cotton and Machine Company twentv-five years, and dur-
ing the first twenty years the profits netted to the stockholders
five times the amount of capital invested. He was a short time
treasurer of the Taunton Locomotive Company. In 1S73 he re-
tired from active business with a competency accumulated during
his successful manufacturing career of half a century. He has
been an economical and unostentatious man, a thinker rather
than a talker, quietly bestowing liberal portions of his wealth
upon his vounger relatives and others, also from time to time dis-
pensing generous gifts in needful cases, which will not be forgot-
ten bv surviving friends and recipients. The Old Ladies' Home
and ilistorical Hall are included in the list of his beneficiaries.
In the latter hall hangs his lite like portrait, in memoriam of
the last representative of the active enterprising business men
of Taunton, who have passed away. He became a member of
this societv, Oct. 11, 1SS6. (From Obituary Record by Secretrry

REV. ARTEMAS DEAN\ son of Axxa Strobridge (33),
was b. Au^^ i6, 1783, in Taunton, Mass.; m., June i, 1813,
S.ARAH Loveland, who was b. in Hebron, Conn., whence, when
she was 4 years of age, her parents rem. to Franklin, N. Y.,
her home at the time of her marriage.
" The Rev. Artenias Dean was born in ' Squawbetty ' (East
Taunton), Mass., Aug. 16, 1783. He entered 13rown university
in 1799, ^"<^ ^t the close of his junior year went to Schenectady,
N. Y., and was graduated at Union college in 1803. He taught
school several years in Walton and Franklin, N. Y.; studied law
with the Rev. Joel Benedict, pastor of the Congregational
church in Franklin, and subsequently studied theology with
Mr. Benedict and with the Rev. Dr. Nathaniel Emmons of
STKOnRFDGE FAMILY. 45
hranklin, Mass. After his licensure he spent three years
preaching; in what was called The New Settlements, in western
New York (in Locke, Homer, and neij;hboring towns), and in
r8F3 was settled as pastor of the Bethlehem Presbyterian
church in Cornwall, N. Y., where he continued to oflficiate till
he resi^Mied his charge in 1842. The rcmainini,^ seventeen
years ot his life he spent on his farm in New Windsor, N. Y.
" lie was six feet and an inch in his stockings ; slender in
early manhood, but in ri|>er years well rounded out ; erect as a
mountain pine, and as noble and majestic a figure as one often
sees. I once heard the late X. V. Willis speak of his physique
in terms of the highest admiration. He was a life-long sufferer
from asthma, and inherited with his Strobridge blood a consti-
tutional tendency to the blues, which were sure to crop out
when an east wind was blow'ing, and never enjoyed robust
health. His library was not large ; he read few books, and like
the lalc I'rest. Mark Hopkins, spent much of his time in pro-
found thought on high themes. As a preacher he was clear,
Hiblical, instructive, and though employing none of the arts of
the orator, was at times the most tender and impressive speaker
I heard in all mv early ilays. He was a faithful jiastor, and had
the happiness of seeing his little flock, numbering in 181 3 less
than twenty souls, become a strong church, with a membership-
roll of two hundred and fifty. I once heard my mother say that
not less than Wvc hundred were brought into the church under
his ministry. The Rev. Chauncey Kildy, agent of the A. B. C.
F. M., said that the Hethlehem church gave more to foreign
missions, according to its ability, than any other church in the
constituency of the IV^anl, excepting only the church in Kings-
boro', N. Y., of which the Rev. Dr. Yale was pastor.
"In recalling my father, I am reminded of Hamlet's eulogium
of Yorick : 'a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy.'
I never saw his equal as a mcofitcnr. When he had guests to
his mind, he would sit at the table a full hour and a half, pour-
ing out a flootl of anecdote, sparkling, humorous, mirth-provok-
ing, keeping the company all the while in roars of laughter, and
this without playing the buffoon, or lowering himself a hair's
breadth as a minister of Christ.
"My father was a man of deep piety — in the true sense 'a
man of God.' Many was the time in my boyhood, when in the
still hours of night, I would wake from sleep and hear his deep
voice raised in earnest prayer. His children all reverenced him
as they reverenced no other man ; and I know, — for we often
talked about it in later years, — that we never saw the man

under our roof-tree, who had common sense, — fools do n't know
any thing, — who, when he looked my father in the face, did not
show by his manner that he was consciously in the presence of
his superior. And yet my father was singularly modest, put on
no airs, never blew his own trumpet, always kept himself in the
background.
" ' He was a man, take him for all in all, I shall not look upon
his like again.' \
" I deeply regret that there is no portrait of my father
extant." (Furnished by Rev. Artemas Dean, d. d., of Muncy,
Pa.)

REV. JOSHUA DEAN*, son of Anna Strobridge (33),
was b. July 16, 1788, in Taunton, Mass.; m. Jan. 7, 181 5, Mary
Montgomery (7(>), dau. of Hugh (18) and Anna (Sampson)
Montgomery, who was b. Oct. 26, 1788; d. Mch. 27, 1843. Rev.
Joshua Dean d. in Groton, N. Y., July 12, 1824.
About the age of seventeen Joshua Dean entered Brown uni-
versity, with the view of entering the ministry, and after com-
i:)leting his theological studies he labored for considerable length
of time as a faithful and successful missionary in the state of
Maine. In 18 14 was ordained as pastor of the First Presby-
terian church in Groton, N. Y., where he remained to the close
of his life.
Mr. Dean possessed a sound and cultivated mind and a taste
of no ordinary refinement. His religious opinions were strictly
Orthodo.x, but yet he could extend his affections to all good men
of every Christian denomination, because he felt with all accurate
observers of mankind that some errors in the understanding are
consistent with uprightness of heart. He labored with wisdom,
zeal, and .self-denial, and he had the happiness of witnessing
several revivals of religion among his people, and he enjoyed in
an unusual degree the esteem and affection of those among
whom he lived. He loved the sacred ofifice, and it was evident
STkOimiDGE FAMILV. 47
to his hearers that towards the close of his life he became more
and more a consecrated man. 11 is loss was deeply mourned by
a large circle of friends. (Condensed from a lengthy obituary

Albans, Vt., Mch. i6, 1870, in her 65lh year. They had res. in
St. Albans since 1827, previous to that in Claremont.
" I^'or a few years after removing to St. Albans, he was asso-
ciated with Geo. N. Farwcll, in manufacturing boots and shoes,
in which they employed a large number of hands ; he afterwards,
conducted his business on a smaller scale, and 4 years ago sold
the same to R. \l. Sweeny, who had been in his employ for 30
years. Mr. I'aull was a long-time member of St. Luke's parish,
and had held prominent official relations with the church as ves-
tryman, warden, and delegate to diocesan conventions. He was
for a time inspector of U. S. customs, at this port, under the
Pierce administration. . . . Mr. Paull was a man of excel-
lent rci>ute and judgment ; his benevolence and kind-hearted-
ness were ever conspicuous, and a more exemplary and agree-
able man is seldom met with. His loss will be much regretted
by the community, not less than by the church of which he was
an honored member." — Sf. A/Ihipis Daily Messenger, June 18,

James built an addition to the house, making it twice its former
size. I also own the house and land that belonged to Andrew Pick-

small, Andrew raised a large family." Mr. Peirce also owns the

ELLEN STROBRIDGE^ dau. of James, Jr. (47), was b. Qct.
6, 1802, in Claremont, N. H.; m. P^eb. 18, 1827, James McLallen
70 GENEALOGY.
of Trumansburgh, N. Y., where they spent a long life together,
celebrating in 1877 their golden wedding. James McLallen
was the son of John McLallen, who emigrated in 1792 from
West Stockbridge, Mass., to the neighborhood of Trumans-
burgh, and his was the first marriage in the town of Ulysses,
N. Y. The surname of this family indicates that it was either
of Scotch or Scotch-Irish descent. James McLallen d. at
Trumansburgh, in 1878, and Dec. 18, 1880, was followed by his
wife.
A long and interesting obituary notice of Mrs. McLallen
should be given if space allowed, but only a few extracts from
it can be admitted. " The education and amusements of the
youthful Ellen were after the manner of the period in which she
lived. She was familiar with the use of the distaff and spinning-
wheel, and possessed such knowledge as could be obtained at
the village school-house. At about the age of twelve she was
sent to live with relatives in Northfield, Mass., in order to receive
the advantages of an academic education ; here she remained
for several years.
"After graduating at Northfield academy, she spent a few
years in teaching in Northfield and an adjacent town, and was at
one time a member of the family of the father of Rev. Dwight
Moody. In the spring of 1831, 3 years after her marriage, she
united with the Baptist church of Trumansburgh.
" About a year before her demise she sustained a paralytic
stroke, which rendered useless the entire left side and confined
her to a wheel-chair. From this attack she never recovered ;
she died as she had lived — peacefully, trustfully. She was a
devoted wife, a fond mother, and a Christian woman."

LUTHER DEANE*, son of Anna Strobridge (51), was b.
May 2, 1810, at Claremont, N. H.; m. 1836, Maria Amelia,
dau. of Edward Clark of Brooklyn, at Saugerties, N. Y.; she
was born in New Hartford, Conn., and d. at her home in High-
land, Kan., Nov. 29, 1879, se. 69 yrs. Mr. Deane d. at his
daughter's home in Collinsville, 111., Mch. 17, 1884.
Soon after their marriage Mr. and Mrs. Deane located in
Franklin, Mass., remaining there until 1857, when they rem. to
Farmington, la. ; thence to Holdcn, Mo., thence to Highland,
Kan. While living in Franklin Mr. Deane united with the
Presbyterian church. To the end of his life he took a deep in-
terest in every thing that concerned the church. From his obit-
uary a few sentences are taken to show in what esteem he was
held by his brethren in Highland, Kan.: "To the last he la-
bored faithfully in the Sabbath school, and he always led the
singing. Music was his passion ; in this he wonderfully ex-
celled, and could not fail to be a leader wherever he went.
Even after he had passed his ' three score years and ten ' he
could distance the young and strong in the softness and melody,
and even in the strength of his voice.
"In his family and domestic relations his grace shone the
brightest. He suffered the greatest affliction in the loss of his
wife, and yet he bore his trial with a meek and quiet spirit. He
carried a great joy in his heart and gave expression to it in the
swe(;t songs he sung, with every feature expressive of his sub-
lime trust in God."
STROBRIDGE FAMILY. "J^
From the obituary of Mrs. Maria Amelia (Clark) Deane : She
grad, at Litchfield (Conn.) Academy with the highest honors.
While in Litchfield she united with the Episcopal church, hav-
ing been confirmed by Bishop Griswold. After her marriage
while living in Franklin, Mass., she united with the Emmons
church. In 1857, in Iowa, she joined the Presbyterian church and
after removing to Highland, Kan., continued to the end a faith-
ful member of the Presbyterian church. She was the first one
to suggest the formation of a Woman's Missionary Society of
the Presbyterian church of Highland, and the society doubtless
owed more to her than to any other member, and her heart, her
contributions, and her pen were at all times loyal to its interests.
Mrs. Deane was the personification of generosity, and the ex-
tent of her benefactions was only limited by her means. To her
fellow-members her sympathy, her encouragement, her beautiful
example, and her enthusiasm were invaluable. Guilelessness
was in her character a remarkable trait. One who knew her
said of her, " Her gifts as a poetess were rare, and always rec-
ognized as of the highest order, and many are the hearts over
the land that have been moved by her sprightly wit and beau-
tiful imagery. The Commencement exercises of Highland Uni-
versity have always been enlivened with an appropriate poem
from her pen." The high esteem in which she was held was
manifest in the many anxious inquiries during her illness and
the large concourse of people of all classes who attended her
funeral.
The above is condensed from the obituary published as an in-
troduction to the little volume containing Mrs. Deane's poems,
from which we have selected the following as an example of her
gift: —
THE FIEND OF THE STILL.
Where the fierce lupine grows
Alas, for the rose, —
Or the reed that lies prone on the sill -
'T is broken, — "t was frail, —
And the mighty prevail.
Led on by the Fiend of the Still.
What harrowing fears,
What numberless tears.
Oh, the fountains of sorrow they fill,
While the God-given mind,
Which else can not bind,
Goes down with the Fiend oi the Still.
74 GENEALOGY.
Bread, bread, is the cry,
Bread, bread, or we die,
For the wheel grindeth slow at the mill;
Bread, bread, is the cry,
Bread, bread, or I die.
Is the shout of the Fiend of the Still.
The earth, full of blood.
Cries out to her God,
And the tippler runs riot at will,
A man-weevil train,
Despoileth the grain.
To nourish the Fiend of the Still.
Young mortals, beware.
Of this foul subtle snare !
Like a viper it strikes but to kill ;
Flee, flee for your life.
For fatal 's the strife
To dally with Fiend of the Still.

for him in the field and for myself in the home with our boys.
At one time there were three weeks when I did not hear from
him at all. They were on the march, with communications cut,
and we could not know, only fear the worst. "

26, 1830, in Hanover, N. H,; the death of her mother, when
Mary was but 1 1 yrs. of age, occasioned the breaking up of
the family, and places were found where she and her younger
brother could work for their board. In 1845 she was sent to
Lowell, Mass., to work in a cotton mill; after a few years she
left the factory and attended school for a short time at a village
academy ; after this she learned the vest-maker's trade, at which
she worked until 1854, when she was persuaded to join some
friends who wished to try the life at the North American
Phalanx, a joint stock association in Monmouth county, N. J.
Here she remained a year and a half, and was present at the

Since 1883 the author has devoted most of her time to
genealo<;ical work. Besides the present work she has prepared
a genealo<;y of the Massachusetts Stiles family, which is now
passing through the press.
In matters of religion, politics, and matters generally, she
has always been on the side of progress. She was an abolition-
ist when the name was held to be a reproach ; a sympathizer
with the ideas of Theodore Parker, when his followers were
few ; an advocate of woman suffrage, and a friend of all the great
reforms of the day.

The extracts below are from an article which appeared in the

only to increase the love of it, and make the spoils of time more
precious to our Brooklyn antiquary. As with John Milton,
who, but for his blindness, would never have seen such heavenly
visions, or woven into his immortal verse so many crowns of
amaranth and gold, so the refined and patient student of the
past, to whom the reporter paid a visit, has been more devoted
to art treasures since he lost the power of seeing them . .
When physical misfortune happens to us it is often made up for
by a keener interest in intellectual and reflective pastimes. . . .
Mr. Strobridge has intellectual resources enough to keep him
always busy and cheerful ; he is skilled in the art of poetry, and
some of his poems arc worthy to be preserved in permanent
form. The gems and relics with which every nook and corner
of his studio abound are each of them a compendium of historic
lore as well as of personal reminiscence. . . . Mr. Strobridge
was born in the town of l^arnet, Vt., in 1822. The late Henry
Stevens, the famous antic[uarian collector of London, was born
in the same place about five years previously. Mr. Strobridge
was early intimate with him, but Mr. Stevens' thirty years'
residence in London necessarily kept them apart, although each
one has always kept informed as to the doings of the other, and
when Mr. Stevens visited his mother, in 1870, Mr. Strobridge
was the first person invited to meet him. . . .
Mr. Strobridge came to New York to reside in 185 1. It was
at that time that he first became enthused with art, especially
with paintings, of which he was an acknowledged judge and
discriminating collector. He took with him to Baltimore, in
i860, about one hundred gems from the studios of American
artists. From that time he became a collector of coins, and
gathered quite a large collection in Baltimore, which became
famous throughout the country. . . .
Mr. Strobridge has many pleasant reminiscences of his fellow
collectors in the walks of antiquarian art. The war drove him
away in 1862, but he came back when there was peace again in
his antiquarian market. Li New York he then held large auction
sales of coins he imported and articles of antique currency . . ."
[The article is long and full of interest, but can not be quoted
in full.]
Extracts from Mr. Strobridge's poem entitled,
NEW ENGLAND.
Clime of the brave ! Home of the free !
C^adly 1 "11 twine a wreath for thee ;
A wreath I '11 twine and hang it high
On some proud altar rising nigh, —
I 10 GENEALOGY.
Rising until it reacli the skv.
For so thv mountains rise, fair land,
Like altars of the world they stand.
Oh ! gaily o 'er thy deep green hills
The bobolink his matin trills ;
And swiftly o 'er thv meads and vales
Sweep the light clouds and balmy gales.
Spread wide beneath, far, far adown,
Are waving fields and hamlets brown ;
And many a silver lake is seem.
Like fluid light to lie between ;
And flashing rills, and purling brooks.
Are hiding in sequestered nooks ;
And farther than the eye can scan.
Are pathless woods, untrod by man.
When moose, and deer, and shaggy bear
Make, undisturbed, their secret lair.
Here Nature in her sternest mood,
Dwells in majestic solitude !
She rears amid these scenes sublime
A race as hardy as their clime.
In vain the storm-fiends round them rave.
The fiercest blasts, unharmed, they brave.
They hear the tempest bursting near,
And listen with delighted ear ;
Yet are they no untutored race.
Nor wanting in each milder grace.
Land of my birth ! Clime of my choice !
New England ! hear my latest voice.
May future sons and daughters fair.
Long breathe thy glorious mountain air !
And meet with stainless honor bright.
Around the glowing hearth by night,
And feed the roaring winter fires
First kindled by their free-born sires.

In reply to a request for an autobiographical sketch Mr. Stro-
bridge has sent the following: "I really do not feel that it would
be of sufficient importance to the world for me to write about
myself. I have never achieved any great things. W^e have
built up a pretty large business, but nothing phenomenal. Our
company is a corporation, and its results have not been so
much achieved by me as to justify my writing myself up, but I
will say that I have been in the business since 1854. The com-
pany first organized in 1868 under the name of Strobridge &
Co., afterwards, in 1880, the name was changed to the Stro-
bridge Lithographing Co. The establishment is noted for its
fine and artistic printing, which is seen in almost all parts of
the country."

It was hoped that a portrait of Mr. Strobridge would be fur-
nished for this work, but his apparently characteristic reluc-
tance to seem even to put himself forward, has deprived

pleasure.

(188), was b. Dec. 17, 1819, in Lisle, Broome co., N. Y.; when
STKOBRIDGE FAMILY. I I9
he was 14 years old his father moved to Alleghany co., N. Y.,
Willard and David, a younger brother, started with the cattle,
numbering 17 head, one day in advance of the rest of the family,
who were to follow with the horses and sleigh, but after the
departure of the boys a thaw set in and made it impossible for
the second party to go with the sleigh, and the father had to
make a wagon, a slow process in those days, before they could
follow the young lads, who wandered on alone through the
dreary 150 miles of the journey, stopping with relatives as they
found them, staying 3 days with one, 2 weeks with another,
and 3 weeks with another ; they left home in February, and
the family, on account of bad roads, did not start until April,
nor (lid the two portions of the family hear from each other in
all that time.
When Willard was between 16 and 17 years old he was bound
out to George B. Morgan, a builder, to serve a 5 years' appren-
ticcshij) ; was to attend school 6 months of the time. He
remained with his master until within 16 months of his major-
ity, then rebelled and ran away, travelling on foot to Kalamazoo,
Mich., where his father owned a farm ; this was in the year
1840. His first vote was cast for Harrison, and he participated
in the famous political demonstration of the Harrison campaign;
helped builtl the typical " log cabin " ; partook of the enormous
"Johnny cake," 16 by 2 feet in dimensions, and supposes he
must have "sampled " the barrel of "hard cider" provided for
the occasion.
Mr, Lull made the first boxes used in the Kalamazoo post-
oflfice. In 1842, went to Ohio, and on Mch. 26, 1844; m. Cath-

GROVER JUDSON McLALLEN^, son of Ellen Stro-

was the 4th and sole survivor of 8 children ; his early education
was similar that of young men whose parents were prosperous,
but intended their sons for a non-professional life. After attend-
ing school at the Homer (N. Y.) Academy he entered his
father's store as a clerk, at the age of 18, but he was not of a
robust constitution and his health suffered under the confin-
ment of a country store. He made two voyages to Liverpool in
the ships of the famous Black Ball line, from which he derived
some benefit; he m. Oct. 14, 1857, Cordelia H., dau. of Jesse

Mr. McLallen was prominently identified with the interests
of his native town, as nurseryman, farmer, and merchant ; he
was a prominent member of the Masonic order ; he held various
town offices, and as a member of the board of education was an
earnest worker in the interest of the public schools. He was
also for several years a trustee of the Baptist society of Tru-
mansburg, but his habits were retiring, and he repeatedly de-
clined the acceptance of offices tendered him. In social life he
was ever genial and courtly in manner; his simplicity of habit,
kindness of heart, attention to his own affairs while refraining

from all interference with the affairs of others, made him a man
of mark and yet a man of sympathy.
"A life well spent, whose early care it was

ROBERT DEAN McFADON^ son of Anna Catherine
Dean (311), was b. Dec. 5, 1857; m. June 28, i88i,at Quincy,
111., Rose Woodbridge of Vergennes, Vt.; d. at Chicago, III,
Nov. 3, 1890. Mr. McFadon graduated from Harvard college
in 1878 ; Harvard Law School, 1881. The following is an
extract from the Quincy (111.) Optic:
" The remains of Robert D. McFadon, whose untimely and
sudden death from pneumonia occurred at his lesidence in Chi-
cago, on the 3d instant, were brought to this city for burial, the
funeral services being held at the residence of his mother, Mrs.
Anna C. McFadon, No. 1444 Maine street, on Wednesday
morning. In the presence of a large company the last words
were said over the flower-laden casket by the Rev. C. F. Brad-
ley, of the Unitarian church in this city, and the Rev. T. G.
Milsted of Unity church, Chicago, the pastor of the deceased.
The burial at a later hour was at Woodland. Mr. McFadon
was well known here, in the city of his birth, as a man of singu-
larly attractive character.
" A graduate of Harvard, both in the classical and law de-
partments, the advantage of foreign travel had broadened his
outlook and given additional polish to his instinctively gentle,
almost courtly, manners. His ability, ample preparation, and
close application had already given him at the early age of
thirty-three a high position at the bar of his adopted city, and
he had become widely known as a public spirited citizen. But
he will be best remembered and most widely mourned, not so
much for his attainments as for qualities of the heart, on which
Mr. Milsted dwelt in reviewing his character. The possession
of these qualities not only made his life an example — not too
common — in which the possession of ample means coincides
with a disposition to give liberally and the wisdom to give dis-
criminatingly, but the rarer example where to these is added
the readiness to give what counts far more — personal service
for the relief and improvement for those less fortunate."

REV. THOMAS RANSOM STOBRipGE^, .son of George
(588), was b. June 3, 1840, in Hamilton, Can. During his in-
fancy his parents rem. to Cincinnati, O., where in 1845 his fa-
ther died of consumption ; his mother m. (2) F. A. Conwcll of
Lowell, Ind. Here the family lived for the next 5 years, then
rem. to Covington, Ky., thence to Winona, Minn. Mr. Stro-
bridge writes of this period of his life : "Here in a new country
I enjoyed the influence of pioneer surroundings for 5 years,
which brought me to manhood. P'rom my earliest recollection,
I had felt that my life work would be to preach the gospel. I
had availed myself of my school advantages, but felt that I need-
ed more training for. my great calling. At the age of twenty-
one I went to Cincinnati, and was clerking in the dry-goods
store of John Shileto when I formed my determination to go to
college. I made my purposes known to Rev. J. T. Mitchell,
pastor of Wesley chapel, and he unexpectedly laid my case be-
fore the official board of that church, and they raised for the
young biblical student $50. When Mr. Shileto learned of my
purpose he handed me $\o. This paid my fare to Chicago, and
when I reached Evanston, a suburb of that city, I had my $50.
Here I remained for 7 years, graduating in the summer of
1867 at the Northwestern University, and in the summer of
1868 at the Garrett Biblical Institute. My fifty dollars took
me through the first summer, 1861 ; then in various ways I was
obliged to earn my bread and carry on my studies at the same
STROBRIDGE FAMILY. I45
time. In 1865 I served for six months, which included a vaca-
tion, in the great war for the preservation of the Union. In
the fall of 1868 I joined the Rock River Conference, which in-
cluded Chicago and adjacent territory, and here I have had my
appointments, and as yet have missed but one pulpit service on
account of sickness. I have lately been elected a member of
the Pan American congress. I was m. to Nellie Maud Smith
of Oak Park, a suburb of Chicago, in 1874; res. at Princeton,
111."

used about 600 tons of iron and steel alone. Careful oversight
of the details of business and a knowledge of the wants of trade,
are the chief causes of the rapid growth of their business.

INTRODUCTION
The author has been unable to learn anything of the ancestry
of Robert Morrison, the father of William, whose descendants
are traced in the following pages. That he belonged to a
Scotch-Irish family can not be doubted, and it is probable that
he was nearly related to the Morrisons who settled London-
derry, N. II., whose history, and that of their descendants, has
been so well traced by one of the latter, Hon. Leonard A. Mor-
rison of Canobie Lake, N. H. Mr. Morrison has published
several works relating to the Scotch-Irish, and from one of
these, the "History of Windham, N. H.," the author, with Mr.
Morrison's permission, has made a few extracts to serve as an
introduction to this portion of her book.
ORIGIN OF THE FAMILY OF MORISON.
"The family of Morison is very numerous in Scotland, and
the name has been a fixed surname there and in the adjacent
Island of Lewis for many centuries, probably for a thousand
years. It is an old name in the counties of Lincoln, Hertford-
shire, and Lancashire, Eng., where persons of the name, several
centuries ago, were knighted, and received coats-of-arms. The
family has spread over England, Ireland, and America. It ap-
pears to be evident that all of the name spring from the same
stock, and have a common origin.
" The Island of Lewis, on the west coast of Scotland, is un-
doubtedly the place where the family originated, though its
founder was probably of Norwegian origin. In regard to the
l6o INTRODUCTION.
origin of the family, the following evidence is presented : In
Captain Thomas' ' Traditions of the Morrisons,' an extract is
made from 'A Description of the Lewis by John Morisone, In-
dweller there,' written presumably between 1678 and 1688,
wherein he says : 'The first and most ancient inhabitants of
this countrie were three men of three several races, viz : Mores,
the sone of Kennanus whom the Irish* historians call "Maku-
rich," whom they make to be son of one of one of the kings of
Norway, some of whose posteritie remains in this land to-day.
All the Morrisons in Scotland may challenge their descent from
this man ' " (pp. 19, 20). . . .
"Another tradition preserved in the branch of Morisons,
which settled in Nottingham, N. H., is to the same effect, and
points in the same direction. This branch of the family emi-
grated from Scotland to Ireland at the time of the siege of
Derry (1688), and to Nottingham, N. H., in 1727. This state-
ment is from Hon. Robert Morrison of Northwood, N. H., a
former mayor of Portsmouth, N. H., who received it in the early
part of the present century from an aged relative, whose birth
dates back to 1750. While giving him words of admonition,
this aged person said: 'Maintain the honor and integrity of
your family, for the Morrisons came from the best blood of
Scotland; they are descended from the royal family.' Royalty
amounts to nothing, and only that man is royal who makes him-
self so by a noble life and heroic deeds.
"This evidence is adduced to show the ground there is for be-
lief in the consanguinity of the different branches. The reader
will not fail to notice the striking similarity of these traditions,
coming down for two centuries through different channels. We
know of no intercourse between the Morrisons of New Hamp-
shire and the Morisons of Scotland since the emigration of the
former in 1688. The traditions here and the traditions there
were separate and independent
"The streams, one in this side of the Atlantic and one on that
side, ran unmingled for two hundred years, and yet they retain,
in their essential parts, the same current of tradition. These
* Tliis means the Gaelic or Higliland Scotch historians.
INTRODUCTION. l6l
traditions all point in the same direction, and establish beyond
a reasonable doubt the common origin of the family, and Lewis
as its common home" (p. 20).
ORTHOGRAPHY OF THE NAME*
"There is no authoritative manner of spelling the name. It
has been found spelled in many different ways, such as Maryson,
Moreson, Moryson, Morreson, Moorison, Morrisson, Morson,
Morisown, Morisone, Morison, Morrison, Murison, and Morrow-
sown. In early days the family in Scotland, England, Ireland,
and America, almost invariably spelled their name with one r,
thus: 'Morison.' This was the customary orthography till
about the year r8oo, when the change to Morrison became gen-
eral in Scotland, England, Ireland, and America, and has con-
tinued to the present time. The family in Londonderry, N. H.,
followed the general custom." [As far as has been ascertained,
it has been found that the descendants of Robert Morrison of
Bridgewater, Mass., with the exception of one branch, also used
two r's in spelling their surname. — m. s. p. g.]
"Norman Morison, Esq., of Stornoway, Island of Lewis, Scot.,
a descendant of the Hereditary Judges,! writes: 'Our family,
and indeed the Lewis families, wrote the name with one r, thus :
Morison.' George Cruikshanks, Esq., of Scotland, writes, Aug.
30, 1879: 'The Morisons of Bogney, from whom I suppose
you are descended, always spelled their name with one r, and I
may say they are almost the only family in Scotland who do so.'
"Morison is the original mode of spelling. It comes nearer
the supposed derivation of the name, and appears to be the cor-
rect orthography."

'Azure ; three" Saracen heads conjoined in one neck, proper, the
faces looking toward the chief, dexter, and sinister sides, by the
name of Morison.' (Guillim's Heraldry, p. 251.) He seems to
imply that what is called the Doi'sey Morison's arms belonged
to ' the name of Morison.' " *
"Nisbet Heraldry, V0I. I, p. 262, says: 'Those of the name of
Moir and Morison carry three Moores' heads, relative to their
name.'
" l\ij)worlh, Armorials, p. 935, says : 'Moor or Moir of Scots-
town and Murison, have three Moores' heads, argent. These
heads are placed one on top of the other two, looking upward.'
By implication it would show a connection between the families
of Moor and Morison.
"The motto, 'Pretio prudentia praestat,' Fairbairn translates:
' Prudence excels reward.' See Fairbairn's Crests. Elwin, in
his Handbook of Mottoes, translates it, ' Prudence is better
than piofit.' In Washbourne's F'amily Crests, the translation
is, 'Prudence is better than riches.' 'Prudentia comes from
pro and video, to see before, to look ahead. This quality of
mind is what we call long-headed, and is thoroughly Scotch.
By coining an expressive word I would translate it, Long-head-
edness is above price.' This translation by Dr. N. H. Morison
will, I think, be acceptable to most Morrisons.
" It is claimed that these arms and crest were bestowed upon a
Morison in the war of the Crusades for some deed of daring, by
the English king, Richard I (Coeur de Lion). In this connec-
tion, and relative to both crest and name, I will give an extract
of a letter from Dr. N. H. Morison, of Baltimore, under date of
Mch. II, 1880. 'The form of the crest — three Moors' heads —
is pretty strong presumptive evidence that it came from some
incident or incidents connected with the Crusades. Where else
could the Gaels of Scotland have come in contact with the
Moors .'' Men did not travel in those days, and ordinary wars
were petty affairs, usually between neighboring chiefs. Fynes
Moryson was the greatest traveller of the sixteenth century, —
his 'Itinerary Through Ten Kingdoms' being the most reliable

and thorough account of the countries he visited during ten years
of laborious travel. I should hardly look for the name, then,
before the Crusades ; both on account of its composition having
the Saxon son in it, and on account of this crest, probably
derived from some ancestor of the Moore family.'
"At different times, other arms have been granted, different
from those given, and which it is useless to mention."
"The Morrison family is (1880) well represented in various
professions and in politics in England. Scotland, and Ireland.
In the county of Aberdeen, Scotland, a number are wealthy
land-owners. D. Morrison, LL. D., Rector, Glasgow Acad-
emy; A. Morrison. LL. D., Principal, Scotch College, Mel-

GENEALOGY
WILLIAM MORRISON', was the son of Robert Morri-
son, who came to North Bridgewater in 1740.* When or where
he was b. has not been ascertained ; m. Sarah Montgomery,
Nov. ID, 1748. It is said that he was a navigator, probably res.
in North Bridgewater. He d. in prison during the French
war. "William Morrison taken prisoner aboard, Capt. Mayor,
Bay of Fundy, June 12, 1758, Sarah a pl.t." {New Eng. Hist.
Gen. Reg.) The parentage and birthplace of Sarah Montgom-
ery arc unknown, but the inscription on her gravestone in the
Thompson llill cemetery, Lakeville, Mass., shows that she was
b. in 1728 ; she was a sister of Elder John Montgomery of Mid-
dleborough, Mass., and the writer considers that it may be rea-
sonably claimed that they belonged to the Brigend Family of
Aloiitgomeries of Ayrshire, a branch of which is traced to Ire-
land. (See Montgomery pedigree on pages 7-9 of this work).
Mrs. Sarah (Montgomery) Morrison m. (2) as 2d wife, William
Strobrbidge, Jr., of Middleborough (West Parish, now Lake-
ville), and d. in Middleborough, Oct. 3, 1817, in her 90th year.
By her 2d m. she had 5 ch. whose descendants are traced in
Part One of this work.
* KinKiiiaii, in his " Historv- of North Bridgewater," says " Robert Morrison came to the North
Parish of Tiridgewater in 1740; had children:
i. " WiLi.iAM, ni. a Stro\vbridi;b and settled in Middleborough." [In this statement things are
mixed, it being the widow of William Morrison, who m. a Strobridge of Middleborough.]
ii. " Alexander, m." Erskine: rem. to Boston." [In the first national census, A. D., 1790, Al-
exander Morrison of Boston had in his family two free white males of 16 years and upwards,
including heads of families, and five free white females, including heads of famiUes. There
was also a John Morrison, who had one free white male of 16 and upwards, including heads,
and three free white females, including, etc In the " Direct Tax " of 1798, John was of Bos-
ton, but Alexander is not mentioned. These two are the only Morrisons named in the cen-
sus of Boston in 1790, therefore it is fair to suppose that they were father and son."
iii "John, m a Giffen, rem. to Connecticut. Rev. Giffen Morrison of the Isle of Sable. W. I., was
their son." [John Morrison and Elizabeth Giffen were m. Oct. 27, 1766 (record of marriages
in North Bridgewater, -Mass.). Died in Windsor,Conn., June iS, 1803, m her 26th year, Jen-

of John and sister of Wil-

whose first husband was slain by Indians.*
That the parents of Ann Thompson were Scotch -Irish is un-
questioned, but where they lived previous to settling in Bland-
ford, Mass., is not known. There have been many Scotch - Irish
emigrants of the name Thompson. If, as seems possible, John,
the father of Mrs. Ann Morrison, was the son of Archibald of
North Bridgewater, Mass , he must have been a brother to the
first wife of William Strobridge, Jr. (5) (Strobridge Genealogy).
Archibald Thompson is said to have made the first wheel for
spinning flax in America.
Dec. 10, 1776, John Thompson of Blandford granted to Al-
exander Morrison and wife Ann (no residence given) a life es-

was the son of Thomas Henry, who removed from North Bridgew ater to Harpersfield, N. Y., pre-
vious to the Revolution, and had two sons (Thomas and James) killed by Tories and Indians in 1775
or '76, and a third son John, taken prisoner to Canada, where he d. ; but although she has held ex-
tensive correspondence with Mrs. Henr>''s Morrison descendants, no one seems to know much about
her first husband.
Since the above was written the author has heard from Dr. Eli Morrison Pinney of Dublin, C,
that he believes the name of his grandmother Morrison to have been Mehitable. This was the author's
surmise, and there seems to be not much doubt that her maiden name was Mehitable Ha//, and that
her first husband was James (son of Thomas) Henrj', who was killed as above stated.

corded at Springfield, Mass., Oct. 3, 1788.
Nor. 1 791, Alexander Morrison of Enfield, Hartford co.,
Conn., bought of Reuben Gunn of Blandford, 50 acres, part of
lot i8,[with house and barn, to hold after Feb. 15.
P'eb. 18, 1803, Alexander Morrison and Alexander Morrison,
Jr., sold for $1716, the 100 acres, which the father and wife Ann
receiv^ed in 1776 from John Thompson.
The same year (1803) Mr. Morrison removed with his family
to Ohio, and settled in what is now Worthington, Franklin co.
From the account of the founding of Worthington, given in
the " History of Franklin and Pickaway Counties, O," the
following extracts are made :
" On the 14th day of Dec, 1802, a colony was formed in the
States of Massachusetts and Connecticut to purchase land and
found homes in Ohio. Articles of agreement were made and
signed by the owners of the land comprising four sections (or
quarters) situated ui^on and near the Whetstone (now Olen-
tangy) river in the military tract, as follows: In the eighteenth
range, first township and first section ; second township, second
and third section, and third township, second section, con-
taining 16,000 acres. The price agreed upon was $1.25 per
acre. The purchasers, in the formation of a colony, agreed be-
tween themselves that one lot of 100 acres should be perpetually
uscil for the ]nu-])0se of providing a school, and a lot of 100
acres should be used for the benefit of a Protestant P^piscopal
church. In the year 1804 the entire tract was partitioned off
and divided among the members of the company. There were
thirty-six members. William Thompson had lots Nos. 6t,, — ,
82, 103, I 15, 141, 142, 146, 159, 160 (10 in all) ; Alexander Mor-
rison, Sr., had lots 2, 26, 39, 58, 72 (5 lots) ; Alexander Morri-
son, Jr., 31, 32, 33, 34, 43, — , 114, 125, 126 (9 lots).
"During the summer of i<So3 Lemuel Kilbourne came to
Ohio with his family, accompanied by the following persons :
Levi Piiiney, Alexander Morrison, Jr., Abner P. Pinney, Wil-
liam Morris(jn, Adna Bristol, 1^^ C. Brown, Israel Case. This
party came in advance for the purpose of erecting cabins for the
u.sc of the colony, and also to erect a mill. On the i 5th of Sept.,
1803, James Kilbourne, Ezra Griswold, with various others and
their families, commenced their journey towards the setting

where is now situated the town of Worthington. Ezra Gris-
wold occupied a cabin on village lot No. 71, William Thompson
No. 70, and Alexander Morrison No. 82. It is a fact that the
first timber cut for any kind of building purposes, in the woods
where the village now stands, was for a school-house, and the
first house erected was a school-house. The first female teacher
was Clarissa Thompson, who taught in the summer of 1804.
With the first settlers, matters of education were foremost in
their minds."

WoKTMIVfiTON. I'kWKMN roUNTV, SlWTK OF UHIO,
.May 24th. 1808.
i\Ik. Wii.i.ia.m .Stkohkiik,!:. bir.
It lias been a long time since I have heard anything concerning my
friends in that part of the country in which you live, and probably so, since
you have heard from me, the reason is obvious.
.About the time I removed to this country, which was in the fall of the year
1.S03 — iiaviiig a great deal of l)usiness on hand, and not being much in the
habit of writing — I neglected to do so & I suppose not until now, you
have not known where or how 1 live, or whether at all or not, however, I
will endeavor to give you a short tho imperfect [history] of my affairs, as to
my family, (.K; situation.
I am settled in the .State of Ohio, near the Center, in a rich, fertile healthy
vV handsome country, with all mv children about me (e.vcept one my old-
est dauglitcr who is married to .1 man iii .\lbany, State of N. York) and en-
joy myself extremely well.
1 have got a most deligluful farm and comfortable buildings. 1 raise
everything in abundance that is necessary for subsistence & that of the
best kind.
When 1 removed to this Country, 1 came in a company who formed for
the purpose of making a settlement here. The Company consisted of up-
wards of 40 proprietors chiefly heads of families, they in the first instance
chose two of their number as Agents who came out the year before the fam-
ilies removed ^^ explored the Country & made a purchase of land for the
Company, — we got our Land for 51.25 per acre taking the whole together —
we came on in 1803 in a Companv which consisted of about 240 souls — we
laid off a Town on the ICast fork of the Scioto River which runs through our
purchase & on a beautiful eminence. The lots in the Town contain three
fourths of an acre of land & at this time we have a number of good houses
built of Urick & several frames, we have three good Mills contiguous to the
Town, lots ot the above description in the Town, that have no buildings
on them, sell from 20 to 150 Dollars each, & farming land fromione to three
Miles from the Town sells from 2 to 12 Dollars per acre.
You will naturally conclude that this account of the Country which I here
exhibit is e.xaggerated, but far be it from me to state anything more of the
Country than it deserves, nor have I the ability even to do it Justice in that
respect.
If any persons friends or acquaintance of ours should wish to better their
Circumstances bv removing to a Country whose Climate is milde & whose
172 GENEALOGY.
soil is inviting I think tliey would be well compensated for their trouble to
come to this country tho the distance is great. Yet that objection is not an
insurmountal)]e one, & that is the only one that can with propriety be made.
1 and all my family have enjoyed l)etter health since we have been in this
Country than for many years previous to our removal and I thank God that
it has been agreeable to his will to place me & my family in this desirable
Country. Brother James lives in the Northern part of this State about 100
miles distance, & from the last account [words torn away] health & doing
well.
I have 3 Chil [torn off] married, my two oldest & fourth, & [torn off] 4
( Irandchildren. I wish this letter m [torn off] Circulated amongst all my
relations [and {? ) ] my wives as it is impossible for me to write to them all.
I wish you & my Brother William to write to me immediately after receiv-
ing this & write every particular respecting all my relations & my wives as
it is not frequent that I hear from any of them, & not likely that I shall ever
see any of them again. Give my love & best respects to my aged Mother
in particQlar, if yet alive, and to all my Brothers, Sisters, friends & acquain-
tances in that part of the Country.
( I remain with sentiments of the highest esteem &
Wm. Strobridge, - affection your friend «& Brother,
( ALEXANDER MORRISON.
P. S. I wish you not to fail to write me a letter as my anxiety to hear
from you is great.
I wish to hear from Brother Robert & family & Uncle Alex'rs family &c,

The above letter (the original, of which the author has seen)
could not have been written by Alexander Morrison himself, as
the handwriting is entirely different from that of the signature
reproduced at the beginning of this account, — which is a fac-
siviilc of one appended to a deed dated 1804.
The exact date of Mr. Morrison's death could not be ascer-
tained, but it probably occurred within two years of the time of
the writing of the above letter.

Oliver Hanii)t(jii, wrote of him as follows: "He was an excellent
and ujiright man, and was for some time elder of one of the families
at Union Village. I never heard the least breath of fault found
against him, either in his calling as an elder, or in his lay-member-
ship. About 1834 he seemed gradually to go into a decline, his ap-
petite failed, and he became weaker and weaker until on Mch. 21,
1835, he i^assed painlessly away. For the last three months of his
sickness I had charge of him, as he was mostly confined to his room.
He expressed over and (jvcr his gratitude for my care. For sixteen
hours before his death he seemed to be in the presence of a host of
angels, or spirits, for he was not only motioning his hands as if

JAMKS MORRISONS son of William (1), was b. Feb. 28,
1757, in liridgevvatcr, Mass. His grandson gives this fact:
"Ik'ing the youngest child of his parents, he remained with his
mother after her second marriage with William Strobridge, jr.,
of Middlehoro'. When of sufficient age to be put to a trade he
was apprenticed to learn the trade of house-joiner, at which he
worked for several years. In 1783 he m. H.anxah Gunn of
Pittsfield, Mass., and took up his residence in Blandford, Hamp-
den CO., Mass."
The land records of Hamjjton co. have the following:
"James Morrison, grantee :
"24,167. Joseph Stanton, of Blandford to Jas. Morrison, of
B-d, 40 acres, having standing thereon a mansion house, ackn.
Aug. II, 1783; Recorded Sept. 29, 1784
" 28, 449. Wm. and Sarah Strobridge, to James Morrison, of

20, 1793 ; ackn. Sept. 20, 1793 ; Rec. Mch. 4, 1796."
The latter transaction is explained by what follows : In 1793
James Morrison removed with his family to Harpersfield, Del-
aware CO., N. Y., remaining there until June 7, 1806. During
this time he sold his second lot of land in Blandford. The rec-
ord reads as follows : "40,352. James Morrison, of Harpers-
field, Delaware co., N. Y., Joiner, to David Munroe, same as
28,449, $333- AV Dated July i, 1799; ackn. July i, 1799;
Rec. May 20, 1802."
There is also: "42,415. James Morrison, of Harpersfield,

No. I. Hannah, release dower. Dated Oct. 11, 1799; ackn.
Oct. II, 1799, in Blandford: Rec. Feb. 13, 1804."
"On June 6, 1806, in company with several others, he set out
with teams for' the then dim and distant wilds of New Connec-
ticut, arriving at Ashtabula co., O., after six weeks' toilsome and
1 74 GENEALOGY.
wearisome journey. Much of the time the company camped by
the wayside in the dense forests, when night overtook them, the
women and young children sleeping in the wagons, the men and
boys lying under the wagons, watching the stock and keeping
up the fires.
"Soon after his arrival at his destination he selected and pur-
chased some four or five hundred acres of land in the new town-
ship of Geneva, Ashtabula co., and moved his family onto it.
He then entered upon the herculean task of clearing off the
heavy forest, and converting the wilderness into fruitful fields.
He erected at first a temporary shelter, built of light logs or
poles, and covered with the peeled bark of chestnut trees. Af-
ter clearing off a few acres, he planted it to corn, and set a
small orchard of fruit trees. As soon as the family were in a
fair way to live, he built what was then known as a double block
house. It was built of logs hewn square, the ends notched, and
logs laid one upon another, and fastened together with wooden
pins. This house had two rooms below, separated by a wide
spaceway, while above, under the low roof, were the sleeping
arrangements. The floors were of boards (which must have
given the place a luxurious appearance), and there was a chim-
ney at each end of the building.
"Furniture was scarce, and Mr. Morrison found his skill taxed
to supply the urgent need of chairs, tables, bedsteads, etc.
These he made from the timber cut down in clearing the land.
On the bank of a small stream which ran through his farm
were a number of large black-walnut trees. From one of the
largest of these he split out boards, and made a table large
enough for the family, consisting of the parents and nine child-
ren, to gather around, for their frugal meal. This table was a
single board, oval in shape, resting on a central standard with
three feet. The top could be turned up at one side and placed
by the wall, and thus be out of the way when not in use. The
bedsteads, chairs, and other articles of furniture were primitive
in construction. Elm bark, from forest trees, served to make
the bottoms of the chairs. In most of the homes of the settlers
of that day, "puncheon" floors and "stick" chimneys were the
prevailing style. The table above referred to was superior to
most in use, and served the family for thirty years. The writer
remembers with what keen appetite he used to draw up his
seat to it on the occasion of a visit to grandfather's.
"The large black walnuts spoken of zvere cut down and split
into rails to fence the farvi. Such lumber as they would have
made would now bring one hundred dollars or more per thou-
sand feet.
Morrison and morison. i7§
"On one part of the farm was a numerous growth of sugar
maples ; huge fellows they were, and the Indians had for
years resorted there every spring to make sugar. For two
or three years after Mr. Morrison's settlement on the farm,
they continued their annual visits, then left to return no
more.
"'I'he settlers had brought with them a few cows, sheep, oxen,
and horses. For three years these animals knew not the taste
of hay, being fed on grain, straw, or browse.
James Morrison was fifty years of age when he came to
(^hio, and when planting his fruit orchard, said he should
not live to eat of the fruit, but his sons and grandchildren
might, and it was for them he was planting. He lived until
many of the trees had blossomed, borne fruit year after year,
and died.
" i Ic gave to each of his sons, James, Jr., William, Strobridge.
and Riley, a tract of land, reserving to himself the old home on
which the youngest son Julius was to reside and care for him
and his wife in their declining years. 7'he elder sons soon parted
with their land and went to other homes, and early in the for-
ties the olil home was sold and Mr. Morrison went to Albion,
Pa., to reside with his son, Riley, while Julius, the youngest son
removed to southern Indiana.
"In person James Morrison was of stocky, stout frame, about
five feet eight or nine inches in height. In character, strong
and resolute, of unriinching courage, morally, as well as physi-
cally. Of a jovial, sunny disposition, fond of fun and sport, he
was a welcome guest everywhere.
"At the time of coming to Ohio, Mr. Morrison was inclined to
the Univcrsalist belief, but about i8i6, under the preaching of
itinerant Methodists, he and several of his family were con-
verted, and in 1S17 a Methodist church was organized at his
house, with thirteen members, nine of whom were members of,
or connectetl with, his family, ajid for years the meetings were
held at his house. For several years he received a pension from
the government for service in the army of the Revolution. He
d. at Albion, Pa., Oct. 18, 1854, at the ripe age of 97 yrs. 7
mos. 18 days.
"He retained his faculties nearly to the end of his long life.
He was never sick nor under a doctor's care until a short time
before his death. His wife was in feeble health for several
years, and many years before preceded him to the spirit land,
dying June 26, 1834. Their remains repose side by side on a
part of what was their original purchase in Geneva, Ashtabula
CO., O." (Contributed by Hon. H. L. Morrison.)

" It being found that in moving it would be necessary to stay
over the Sabbath at some point of the journey, it was decided
that Boston should be the place, in order that the family might
have a chance to listen to some of the able preachers there.
When Sunday morning arrived the mother was unable to go to
meeting, and John went by himself to hear the noted Univer-
salist, Balfour. What he heard set him to thinking, and after
that he plied his mother so persistently with questions regard-
ing her theology that it would seem they resulted in opening
her eyes, for she became as strong a Universalist as her son,
many years before her death. His doctrine was, 'Prove all
things, hold fast that which is good.' " He m. June 24, 181 3,

Ohio with her father's family; was living in 1808 in Albany, N,
Y.; in 18 17 at Windsor, N. Y., and in 1822 at Coxsackie on the
Hudson ; was then thinking of moving to Ohio, and doubtless
did so. Mr. Wilson was a trader, and apparently possessed a
good education.
A letter written by Mrs. Wilson to her brother Alexander,
after his wife's death, is given below.
Windsor, X. Y., Sept. 19, 18 17.
Dear Bkothkk:
it is ;i long time .since I have attempted to write you. Time has not
weaned my affection from you, in the dispensation of divine providence in
removing vour partner, you must go to him. she cannot return to you, has
she left any evidence behind that she was prepared to meet her God, if she
was she would not return for ten thousand such Worlds as this, it is of
little consecjuence when we are summoned to IJepart, if we are prepared, it
is of infenete importance that we should seriously inquire into our own sit-
uation, have we made our peace with (^.od, have excepted of Christ as he is
offeid to us in the gospel, if not 1 beg you to set about it immediately, we
have no promes of to morrow. My Dear you know not how anxious I feel
for your eternal welfare. I rejoice in your worldly prosperity, but I think
it would be more satisfactory to me to hear that you injoyed religion the
importance of the subject as I view it must plead in excuse for the freedom
that I have taken at this time not knowing that I shall ever have another op-
portunity, life is uncertain. I should be highly pleased to except of your in-
vitation to go to the westward, tlie idea of injoying your society a gain in the
world i.s what I have almost dispared of, yet I find' it to be very gratifying
to my heart to anticipate a meeting. I must leave the event with the all-
wise govenor of the unverse. May we be prepared to meet in the realms
of bliss is the prayer of vour affectionate sister.
SALLY WILSON.
In Mr. Wilson's letter, written in 1822, he speaks of his "old-
est daughter" and "two youngest sons," but the names of two
children only have been furnished.

ALEXANDER MORRISON, JR.^, son of Alexander (4),
was b. Sept. 27, 1780, at some place in New England, where is
not known. The land records of Hampden co., Mass. show that
Alexander Morrison, and Alexander Morrison, Jr., yeomen, sold
a tract of land in Blandford, Mass., Feb. 18, 1803, for $1,716.00;
also that Alexander Morrison, Jr., sold a lot of land in Bland-
ford, Aug. 24, 1803, for $833.33, being a part of a lot of 50
acres which his father bought of Reuben Gunn of Blandford,
Nov. II, 1 79 1.
He was one of the advance party of the land company who
settled the town of Worthington, O., in 1803. (See family 7
for a detailed account).
In the division of the company's land, nine lots were appor-
tioned to Alexander Morrison, Jr.
Mr. Morrison m. July 4, 1806, Sally, dau. of Levi and Sarah
(Phelps) Buttles.* She was b. May 9, 1789. Mr. Morrison
appears to have had a good education, and was a successful
merchant. In 1814 he was appointed associate judge. One
account of him states that he was a surveyor. He is said to
have been a remarkably fine-looking man, tall and commanding
in appearance.
The following record of his death, and his wife's, was found
among the effects of his son Justin:
"Alxr Morrison departed this life August 2nd 1821 after an
illness of (nervous coruptans) 13 days"
"Mrs Sally Morrison departed this life June the 6th 1817
Aged 28 years & 28 days after a lingering and destressing sick-
ness of 15 months which she bore with an uncommon degree of
Patience and P'ortitude and closed the solemn scene of this mor-
tal life in a manner which was truly affecting, and evinced in the
minds of those who witnessed her departure a lively hope that
she had gone to receive the reward of a well spent life. She had
lived in a married state Ten years 11 months and 2 days"
Mr. and Mrs. Morrison were buried at Urbana, O., where a
monument was erected to their memory by their daughter, Mrs.
Sophronia Jeffords. It is said that an error was made in the
inscri])tion on the monument, giving 1820 instead of 1821 as the
year of Mr. Morrison's death.
* Levi IJuttles was a iiicnil)LT i)f tlic land company tliat settled Worthington, O. He and his fam-
ily went to Worthington in 1804, from Sayhrook, Conn. Mrs. Buttles died in Columbus, O., Jidy,
1844. The family name is the same as that sjielled Huttolph.

I never saw after 1.S21, when the leading man of the Lebanon, O.,
'.Shaking Quakers' and a brother of our father's [William Morri-
son] came to Worthington to induce Darwin and myself to go with
him to Lebanon. My grandmother [Mrs. Levi Buttles, with whom
these orphaned children lived after the death of their parents] gave
her consent. Darwin went, remained three years with them, came
back to Worthington and remained a short time, then emigrated to
lilinoLs, married there, and had a family, how many children I do
not know; then, like many other Americans, ' up stakes,' and
moved West where he soon d."
132 iv, Alexander, b. Dec. i, 1S14; he was very fond of study, and after
leaving college studied law and was admitted to the bar, but a^ his
health was not strong, physicians advised him to give up the idea of
practising, and live as much as possible in the open air. He was
for some years an extensive manufacturer of pottery in Philadeljihia.
He was singularly modest and retiring; only those who worked
close beside him had anv idea of the sweetness of his disposition,
his unselfish affection, and the purity of his life. He loved his
home, his friends, and his books, caring little for general society,
but enjoved greatly having his friend> in his own home, where every
one wh(5 saw him admired and loved him. I think his mother must
have been a lovely character, for to the last day of his life he had
such deep respect for woman. He was very fond of Shakespeare.
How often I have heard him repeat pages of it. " His life was gen-
tle, and the element,-, so mixed in him that Nature might stand up
and say to all the world, 'This was a man. ' " (From a letter of
Mrs. Emily (.Swift) Morrison.) Mr. .Morrison was m. at Columbus,
f)., Nov. 18, 1852, to Emily Abiaii, dau. of Dr. Lsaac and Eliza
(Thompson) Swift* of Ravenna, < )., where she was b. Sept. 21,

The following is an extract from a letter of Mr. Morrison,
dated Sejit. 28, 1890 : "Being born while the Indians were
in such numbers all around us, those old enough to fight were
kept busy enough in doing so, leaving the old men and women
to look out for their children's families and their support." Al-
though Mr. Morrison is now (1890) upwards of 80 years of age,
he writes a very interesting letter in a fair hand, as will be seen
by his autograph under his portrait.

ALEXANDER MORRISON^ son o.f James, Jr. (33), was
b. Jan. 22, 1806, in Harpersfield, N. Y.; m. Sarah Bruce, June 9,
1833, and began life on a new farm covered with the original
forest. Unto them were b. five children, three of whom d. in
infancy ; two, a boy and a girl, lived to the age of 6 and 8 years,
when both d. very suddenly. The loss of her children preyed
upon the mind of the mother until she became despondently
insane, and all her after-life she was a great burden and care to
the husband, who, with unremitting kindness, bore with her for
years, until death came to her relief. She d. in 1883. Mr.
Morrison then sold his farm, came to town (Ashtabula), to live
with a niece of his wife. Early in Nov., 1886, he fell and broke
his hip. The nature of this calamity and his age precluded
recovery, and he d. the 6th of Dec. following.

was b. Aug. 12, 1820, in Geneva, Ashtabula co., O. His
mother dying at the hour of his birth, he was given to an uncle

FORD of Gloucester, Mass., b, July 14, 1856; is now (1890) settled
over the Universalist society at Manchester, N. H. The fol-
lowing is from the Manchester Patriot:
MORRISON AND MORISON. 21/
"The Amoskeag Veterans are fortunate in the selection of
their chaplain the coming year (1890). Rev. W. H. Morrison is
the most popular clergyman in Manchester to-day, and that as
much because of his fearlessness and independence in discuss-
ing the living problems and issues of the day, as of his charm-
ing personality. Preachers who live in the present, with their
faces turned toward the future rather than the misty past, are
the preachers who command the attention and gain the con-
fidence and regard of the people in this progressive age."
The Christian Leader (Universalist) has the following report
of a recent sermon of Mr. Morrison :
"At the grove meeting of Universalists, held at Lyndon-
ville, Vt., Aug., 1 891, Rev. W. H. Morrison of Manchester, N.
\\., dcHvercd a sermon on the subject 'Why am I a Univer-
salist.^' taking for his text, Isaiah xlv : 23, 'I have sworn by
myself, the word has gone out of my mouth in righteousness,
and shall not return, that unto me every knee shall bow, every
tongue shall swear.'
"Mr. Morrison likened this unto a bond issued by God and en-
dorsed by Jesus Christ, John the Baptist, Sts. Paul and Peter,
quoting Scripture to prove them endorsers. He claimed God
had the power, the means, and the desire to redeem that bond
at face value, and would do so. Said some wanted to discount
from ten to ninety per cent. Speaker said when an individual
gave a bond and had plenty of means to redeem it, and a known
disposition to do so, it was considered a sound business trans-
action to pay par value for the bond, and as a business trans-
action it was safe to take God's bond ; it was worth its face value.
The speaker used many other apt illustrations and convincing
arguments in his line of thought, leaving no room for doubt
in the minds of his hearers that he believed in the universal
salvation of men, that it was God's promise that all should be
brought to him, and that he was able and willing to make that
promise good. Mr. Morrison is a very interesting speaker, and
the large audience gave him the closest attention."

PREFATORY NOTE
Any one interested to know why the author, who, not long
since, held that the Strobridges and Strawbridges of America
were of Scotch origin has changed her views on this point will
find the explanation in the Preface to this work. They will also
find in the Introduction, especially that portion of it taken from
the address of Doctor Mcintosh, at the Scotch-Irish congress,
held at Pittsburg, Pa., in May, 1890, many interesting facts re-
lating to the Scotch, English, Hiiguoiot and Quaker colonists of
the Province of Ulster, Ireland, among whom, in all probability,
were the ancestors of many belonging to the present genera-
tion of Strobridges and Strawbridges.
How many emigrants of the Strawbridge name have settled
in America has not been ascertained ; there were certainly sev-
eral. While it seems quite likely that some of these emigrants
came directly from England, it is knoivn that others came from
Ireland, and it is highly probable that most did so. The
meagre knowledge of these emigrants possessed by their
descendants to-day, renders the work of investigation ex-
ceedingly di/ficult, and wellnigh precludes the possibility of
establishing connections, excepting in one or two instances.
The author has spared no pains in her efforts to make this
portion of her book satisfactory, and if she has failed to do so,
the cause must be attributed to the difficulties in the way.

PREFATORY NOTE.
ARMS.
In Burke's "General Armory," published in London in 1878,
are found descriptions of the Trobridge, Trowbridge, and Stro-
bridge arms,* but no mention of any Strazvbridge arms, from
which it may be inferred that no family bearing this surname
has ever owned a coat-of-arms. The fact may also suggest that
the other ways of spelling the name are more ancient. Is it
not possible that the present name, Strawbridge, is a corruption
of Strobridge } May there not have been at some time a fashion
of giving the short sound to the 0 in the name Strobridge 1 In
that case, how easily the change in spelling from Strob-x'x^g^ to
5"/;'«t£^-bridge would follow.
ACKNOWLEDGMENT.
Especial thanks are due to Hon. J. A. Strowbridge of
Portland, Ore., for a timely donation which has made possible
researches and investigations which could not have been prose-
cuted without such assistance; Mrs. Strowbridge has also
furnished much valuable information ; Mr . J. C. Strav^bridge
of Philadelphia, has contributed both money and material for
the family history. Among others who have been both cordial
and helpful, may be mentioned, William C. Strawbridge, Esq.,
of Philadelphia; Joseph R. Strawbridge of York, Pa., Mrs.
G. R. Irish of Iowa City, la.; Mr, Charles Heber Straw-
bridge of Chicago, and Mrs. Lizzie Gregg of Chester, Ind.
Others have also aided more or less, and all have the sincere
thanks of

STIMWHKIDGE AND STROWBRIDGE FAMILIES
SECTION I.
JOSEPH STRAWBRIDGE of Westvvood, Md., is the first
of the name in America of whom any account has been found.
In the land records at Baltimore, liber R. M., No. H. S.,
folio 237, is recorded a bond from Thomas Scudamore to Jos-
eph Stkawbkidge, carpenter, for the conveyance of "West-
wood," on Back river, containing 700 acres, dated Aug. 2, 1687.
A note, or partial account of the administration of Joseph
Strawp.ridge, is found in Admn. Accts., No. 2, folio 213.
In Will Book, No. i, folio 62, is found the will of Sarah
Stkawuridge, widow, "executrix" of Joseph Strawbridge. She
only mentions the following children by name, and seems to
have been married twice. Bequests: "To Mary Harding, i
gold ring; to Susanna Strawbridge, i gold ring and i cow
and calf."
Samuel Harding, another child, is also mentioned, and
she wishes all her children to be kept at her plantation, on
Back river, until they are of age. Nicholas Heale is named
as executor, and the will is probated Apr. 22, 1699. Signed,
her
" Sarah s m Strawbidge."
mark
An account of Nicholas Heale, administrator of her estate, is
given in Admn. Accts., No. i, folio 7.
Should this work come to the notice of any descendant of
Joseph and Sarah Strawbridge, the author hopes that he or she
will at once communicate with her. It is not impossible that
some of the Strawbridges mentioned in this work are descend-
ants of Joseph, of " Westwood," Md.

SECTION II.
REV. THOMAS STRAWBRIDGE of Carndonagh, Co.
Donegal, Ire., 17 14 to 1762, and his descendants in Ireland
and America.*
Note. Early in 1889 the author of this work wrote to Ire-
land in the hope of learning something about her own Strobridge
ancestors from records there — she knew only that her ances-
tors came from "Donagh," Ireland. Below will be found the
reply to her letter, from which it will be seen that the place from
which it was written was, and is still called "Donagh," and in
all probability the writer of the letter is settled over the very
church from which the author's ancestors, William and Mar-
garet (Henry) Strobridge, received, in 1722, their letters of dis-
missal to an American church.
At first it seemed as though it might be possible to trace the
relationship which luidonbtcdly existed between William Stro-
bridge and Rev. Thomas Strawbridge of Carndonagh, but the
idea had to be abandoned for lack of data. — m. s. p. g.
LETTER OF REV. ROBERT MORRISON.
"Carndonagh Manse, Co. Donegal, April 10, 1889.
" Dkar Madam:
"As far as I can find out, Thomas Strawbridge came from Belfast, as an
Irish-speaking missionary, to Innishowen, the district from Londonderry to
Malin Head, between Loughs Foyle and Swilly — in the year 1714 — which
l)osition he held for seven years when he recived a call from this, Donagh^
congregation, which occupies the centre of Innishowen. Here he was or-
dained in 1721, and died here in April, 1762, after a ministry of over forty
years.
" Rev. Thomas Strawbridge, Oct. 3, 1 721, to April 2, 1762; died.
"Rev. Robert Scott, ordained Nov. 22, 1777, to Oct. i, 1803; died.
" Rev. Reuben Rogers, ordained Sept. 27, 1808, to Feb. 12, 1846.
" These three ministers are given as somewhat associated in various ways.
" Rev. Thomas Strawbridge lived at Rockmount, which in his day was a

manse, with four acres Irish land attached. At his death, the manse and
farm went to his family, who occupied it until Thomas Strawbridge, grand-
son of Rev. Thomas, sold it to Rev. Reuben Rogers in 1810, when he and
his family emigrated to America. Mrs. Porter, a daughter of Mr. Rogers
(a lady 76 yrs. of age) still occupies it.
" The father of Thomas, jr., was probably Jack (?) or Thomas. At any
rate he succeeded well, and for Thomas, jr., built at Rockmount, about 1785,
a fine house, leaving the old manse to his (Thomas') mother and sisters.
" These sisters were three in number, one married Rev. Robert Scott of
Carndonagh. When Thomas emigrated, 1810, there were left here his two
unmarried sisters, Margery and Jennie, and Mrs. Scott's family.
" Margery and Jennie lived on at Rockmount with Rev. Reuben Rogers
for a year or two, but finally Jennie went to lodgings in Carndonagh where
she died 1S20. Margery went to live with her niece, daughter of Mrs.
Scott, who had married Rev. Dr. Alexander, Covenanting minister, Belfast.
Rev. Robert Scott had two daughters, one married to Rev. Dr. Alexander, the
other to Mr. James Stevenson of Toberneil, near Raphoe. After Mr. Ste-
venson's death, Mrs. Stevenson, her four sons and two daughters, emigrated
to America, about thirty years ago, and settled at Springfield, 111.
" Kev. Dr. Alexander had two sons and one daughter, one was Rev. Jacob
Alexander of Edinburgh, Scotland; the other, Rev. Robert Scott Alexander
of Edinburgh, Scotland. The daughter married in Belfast.
" I. Scott Alexander, 23 Magdala Crescent, Edinburgh, Scotland, ordained
St. David's church, 1844.*
" With best wishes, yours sincerely,
"ROBERT MORRISON.
"I'. S. I may add that 1 lodged with Mrs. Porter two years since I
came here, in the house built by Mr. Strawbridge. Mrs. Porter is 76, and
knows more about the Strawbridges than most people in this locality."
From the foregoing letter and a record obtained from Powers'
" Early Settlers of Sangamon Co., II.," by Mr. Charles Heber
Strawbridge of Chicago, the following genealogy has been
arranged :
REV. THOMAS STRAWBRIDGE^, of English extraction,
is traced to Belfast, Ire., thence to Carndonagh (or Donagh),
Co. Donegal, Ire., where he lived from 1714 to 1762, as a min-
ister of the Presbyterian denomination ; was ordained Oct. 3,
1721, and d. Apr. 2, 1762. His manse was called Rockmount,
and went to his family at his death.

family was of English origin."] Mrs. Jane (Mitchell) Straw-
bridge d. in Co. Donegal in 1809; and in 1810 Mr. Strawbridge,
with his children, came to America, landing in Baltimore, May,
1810. They went to Northumberland co., Pa.f In the fall of
181 1 they moved to that part of Champaign co. which is now

t Tliere was at tliis time c|uite a colony of Strawbridges in what was formerly Northumberland
CO., Pa. Is it not possible, or x3X\\<tr probable, tliat Thomas Strawbridge went to Northumberland co.,
Pa., because lie had relatives there? This is but a straw, to be sure, but such slight indications often
lead to important results.
Since the above was written the fact has been established that Thomas Strawbridge was related
to the Northumberland co. family.

SECTION III.
Chester County (Pennsylvania) Branch.
Doubtless the first of the Strawbridge name to settle in Ches-
ter CO., Pa., was James, who had conveyed to him by William
Peters and Richard Hockley, attorneys for Christiana and Gul-
ielma Penn, on Jan. 18, 1759, "a certain piece of land situate on
Elk River, Chester county, part of a tract of 5000 acres, and of
Fagg's Manor." (Land Records of Chester co.. Pa.)
His wife's name was Margaret, and it is probably true, as
some of their descendants claim, that they emigrated from the
north of Ireland, although of English ancestry more or less re-
mote. James Strawbridge was undoubtedly related to, perhaps
a brother of. Rev. Thomas Strawbridge of Section H.*
William C. Strawbridge, Esq., of Philadelphia, a descendant of
James and Margaret Strawbridge, and the present owner of the
property above referred to, gives an account of the manner in
which it descended from the Penn family, as follows :
''May 16, 1737, letters-patent, John Penn, Thomas Penn, Rich-
ard Penn, Proprietors and Governors of the province of Penn-
sylvania to Letitia Aubrey.
''July 20, 1744, will of Letitia Aubrey, devising said land to
William Penn, her nephew, for his life, and afterwards to Christ-
iana Gulielma Penn. William Penn survived Letitia Aubrey,
but died in the lifetime of Christiana Gulielma Penn, whereby
Christiana became seized in her own right of the tract of land,
consisting of 5000 acres, which was known as Fagg's Manor.

ielma Penn to William Peters and Richard Hockley of Philadel-
phia.

Chester co. settler, the connection seems to be established.

JOSEPH STRAWBRIDGE2, son of James (1). The land
records of Chester co., Pa. (Deed Book W, p. 315), show that
by a deed dated Apr. 28, 1764, James Strawbridge and Mar-
garet, his wife, of Londonderry township, Chester co.. Pa., con-
veyed to their son, Joseph Strawbridge, of the same place, a
lot of land containing one hundred and sixty acres, it being a
part of the tract purchased by James Strawbridge, Jan. 18,
1759.
By another deed, dated Aug. 10, 1782 (Deed Book W, p. 277),
he received from John Finney and wife forty-two acres in Lon-
donderry.
And by a third deed, dated June 22, 1786, given by Peter
Gaskill (t-/ a/., attorneys, he received one hundred and twelve
acres of land situate in John Fagg's "Manner," Chester co.. Pa.
(Deed Book O, p. 409). He d. unm. and intestate, previous to
Jan., 1 8 14, when a petition was presented by James Strawbridge
in the Or[)han's court, Chester co.. Pa., praying the court to
make partition of the real estate. The jury found that the es-
tate could not be divided, and it was adjudicated to James
Strawbridge, he having consented to take it. (W. C. Straw-
bridge, Esq.)
The land conveyed to Joseph Strawbridge by John Finney,
Aug. 10, 1782, is included in the estate owned in Penn town-
ship (formerly Londonderry) by W. C. Strawbridge, Esq., and
descended from the Penn family as follows :
^^ April 3, 1740, letter of attorney, Letitia Aubrey to James
Logan and William Logan, attorneys, in fact, to patent, locate,
and convey her land in Pennsylvania.
* Mr. Williaii. C. Strawbridge informs us that he has seen old deeds relating to his property in
Penn township (formerly Londonderry), Chester co., Pa., which were signed " Strobridge." This
may be considered proof positive tliat Strobridge and Strawbridge are identical.

looking glass with all house and kitchen furniture which is my property.
" My reason for leaving my Nephew Joseph Strawbridge so much more
than my other legatees is this, he lived with his uncle Joseph Strawbridge
now deceased intestate who always said he would leave him in full posses-
sion of the farm he lives on with the buildings. My desire now is to enable
him to purchase it. should there be any overplus money more than will pay
the Legacies herein specified it is my will that it be equally divided between
my brother James Strawbridge's three Sons Share and Share alike.
"Dated Oct i, 1814.
" Before signing and sealing I do make this codicil and it is my will that
my Nephew Joseph Strawbridge shall have my Mulatto Girl named Hannah
until she is 25 years of age at which time it is my will she shall be free.
" Probated Aug 22, 1822."
THOMAS STRAWBRIDGE^, son of James (1), tanner,
and wife, Margaret (Montgomery), of Londonderry township
Chester co., Pa., by an indenture dated Apr. 27, 1764, granted
and conveyed to James Strawbridge a certain piece of land in
Londonderry.
* This was evidently her grandneice, a granddaughter of her brother Tliomas, and the bequest
which precedes it was perhaps to another grandneice and namesake, altliough she had a neice named
Christiana married to Daniel Montgomery.
STRAWBRIDGE AND STROWBRIDGE. 24I
A letter of attorney from Thomas Strawbridge, tanner, of
Tarbit, Northumberland co., Pa., to James Strawbridge and Dr.
Francis Alizon of Chester co., Pa., dated May lo, 1785, is re-
corded in "letter of Attorney Book" May 16, 1785.
Thomas Strawbridge m. Margaret Montgomery, who was
1). in Delaware, was brought up and educated in the family of
an aunt in Philadelphia. She was a woman of remarkable in-
tellectual endowments; aided and encouraged her husband in
every way during the war (Revolutionary) ; carried on the
work of a large farm herself, most of the proceeds of which
were contributed to the support of families of soldiers who were
in the army. During the terrible winter at Valley Forge once
every week she rode on horseback across Chester co., carrying
on the saddle behind her a bundle of clothing, stockings, etc.,
woven and spun from the wool cut from sheep raised on her own
farm, spun and knit by the wives and daughters of men (then in
service, and hired by her for that purpose) at night by the light
of pine knots, which she herself distributed to the soldiers.
There she met her husband whom she had not seen for many
months, the day before the crossing of the Delaware, to capture
the Hessians at Trenton.
She lived to the age of 99 yrs. and 10 mos., retaining her fac-
ulties until within a few days of her death, and died without
having had a day's sickness in 80 years. Mrs. Strawbridge was
a sister of Gen. William Montgomery of the Continental Army,
who founded the town of Danville, Pa., and res. there at the
beginning of the Revolutionary war. He was colonel of a regi-
ment which he commanded at the battles at Brooklyn.
Thomas Strawbridge was appointed captain of militia by the
Committee of Safety, in Mch., 1775. In 1776 was lieutcnant-
coloicl of the 2d regt. of Chester co. militia. In Sept., 1776,
was a member of the first assembly to form a State Consti-
tution. In 1777 his name appears as president of the Board of
Appeal, before whom all persons drafted for the army had to ap-
pear to see if they were fit to enter the army. Afterward
there appeared among his papers accounts for large quantities
of arms, munition, etc., purchased by Colonel Thomas Straw-
bridge for the army, and for most of which he had given his
own personal obligations, which nearly ruined him financially, as
he was compelled to pay for them and the goverment could only
pay him in Continental money, which at the close of the war
was worthless.
Just before the close of the war he removed from Chester co.
to what is now Montour co., then included in the county of
Northumberland, Pa., and in 1785 was presiding judge of the
16

courts. He was succeeded a year or two later by his brother-
in-law, Gen. William Montgomery.*
The following copy of Mrs. Margaret Strawbridge's will was
obtained of the County Recorder :
"WILL OF MARGARET STRAWBRIDGE LATE OF LIBERTY

JAMKS STRAWBRIDGE-^ son of James (G), m. Mary
Oi.DKN. In the records of Columbia co.. Pa., it is noted that
Javics Straivbridge was chosen in 18 15, to administer the es-
tate of Philip Straivbridge, deceased. It seems more than prob-
able that he was the same James whose name heads this para-
graph, and also that he zvas a relative af the man whose estate
he settled. Allowing these two presumptions it follows that
there was a relationship between the Strawbridgc families of
Chester and Columbia cos., Pa., a point which the author
would be glad to see established. [The author kindly invites
correction if she has erred in her conclusions.]
The following e.xcerpts from the Columbia co. records un-
doubtedly refer to members of the family of James (6) :
"Letters of Admin, granted to John Shearer, 1848, on estate
of James Strawbridge, Jr., of Deny township, Col. co., Pa.,
wife's name Mary."
''Feb. 16, 1824, Mary Strawbridge gave deeds to Hugh
Allen, Jesse Fennton, Mary B. Strawbridge.
"Same date, Thos. Moorehead, Jos. Hutchison, James Straw-
bridge, Mary Strawbridge, Robert Templeton est. to Mary
B. Strawbridge."
"Mary B. Strawbridge late of Warren co.. 111., letters de bonis
non were granted on the 9th day of January, 1844, unto Eli
Wilson of Danville. She probably died in Illinois, and letters
of Admin, were originally granted in this county (Columbia)
on the 1 8th day of May, 1843, to Samuel Wilson. She for-
merly lived in Derry township, Col. co., Pa., and the records
say that the principal part of her goods and chattels and estate
were in Derry twp."
According to W. C. Strawbridge, Esq., of Philadelphia, James
Strawbridge and Mary Olden had a son,
36 i. J.vmes*, who m. about 1S70 ( .') and d. at Columbia, Pa., within the last
four or five years {1886 or 7 .').

tricity with the second honors of his class. He then studied law
in the office of ex-Judge F. Carroll Brewster, Philadelphia, and dur-

He then became associated with George Harding of that city, in
the practice of patent law, and subsequently entered into his present
partnership with J. Bonsall Taylor, in the practice of that branch of
the profession, and in the soliciting of American and foreign pa
tents. His education, experience, and ability, and the large number
of patent cases in which he has been engaged, have placed him in
the very front rank of this branch of his profession. He was ap-

States, a few years since, in the case brought by it against the
American Bell Telephone co., for the cancellation of the patents on

SECTION IV.
Strowbridges or Stra^i^bridges of Northumberland
County, Pennsylvania.
Besides Thomas Strawbridge of the preceding section, who is
known to have been a member of the Chester co. family, there
were several others of the name in that portion of Northumber-
land CO., Pa., which is now known as Columbia co., and, without
much doubt, all the persons of the name in that section of
Pennsylvania were related.
From Mrs. Mary H. (Bodman) Strowbridge have been re-
ceived most of the records of the descendants of Justus Straw-
bridge, as the public records spell his surname, though according
to Mrs. StrowlDridge the name was originally Strowbridge, but
on account of an error in some document, the owner or owners
of it afterward adopted the error rather than risk losing their
title to certain property. A portion of the descendants of
Justus Strawbridge afterward returned to the older mode of
spelling, particularly the branch of the family now living in
Oregon, and of which Mrs. Strowbridge referred to is a mem-
ber.
Mrs. Strowbridge states that there were three brothers,
William, Philip, and Justus Strowbridge, who emigrated from
Scotland, and it is found that they all died in Northumberland
CO., Pa. It is hardly likely that they came from Scotland, but
rather from the North of Ireland. The little that is known of
William and Philip Strawbridge was obtained from th*e records
of Columbia co., Pa., and is as follows :
1. "WILLIAM STRAWBRIDGE d. 1832; letters of
admin, were granted on his estate to John M. Reynolds ; his
widow's name was Mary."
2. "PHILIP STRAWBRIDGE d. in 18 15, probably ; letters
of administration were granted that year to James Strawbridge."
STRAWBRIDGE AND STROWBRIDGE. 25 I
[It seems more than probable that this James Strawbridge who
administered the estate of Phihp was a relative, and to the
author, who has studied the matter carefully, it appears exceed-
ingly likely that the said James was the son of James and
Margaret (Johnson) Strawbridge of Londonderry, Chester co.,
Pa., and brother to Thomas of Turbit, Northumberland, now
Columbia co., Pa.]

Strowbridge d. three days after arriving in Portland. Mrs.
Strowbridge d. there, Aug. 8, 1880. They were Presbyterians
in their religious belief.
The records of Columbia co.. Pa., show that Ann Eliza
Strawbridge, at her residence, Mahoning township, Columbia co.,
gave a deed dated Mch. 9, 1830, to Philip Strawbridge of same
place. Another deed from Shobel Strawbridge and wife of
Union township, Union co.. Pa., to Philip Strawbridge of
Mahoning, Pa., is dated Apr. 10, 1830. Still another deed from
George F. H. Strawbridge of Reading, Berks co., Pa., to Philip
Strawbridge, is dated Apr. i, 1830. A fourth deed from Joseph
Strawbridge of Turbut township, Northumberland co.. Pa., to

many years in Cincinnati, O., and that he was a Methodist min-

STRAWBRIDGE AND STROWBRIDGE. 255
a lady of rare education, culture, and social abilities. Mr.
Strowbridgc has given generous aid towards defraying the ex-
pense of collecting material for the history of his branch of the
Strowbridge family, and Mrs. Strowbridge has also assisted
greatly by furnishing the most of the records of this branch.
"Mr. Strowbridge, universally known as one of the leading
business men and philanthropists of Portland, Ore., was born
in 1835, in Montour co., Pa. With his parents he early made a
home in Ohio, receiving the substantial home training of very
careful Christian parents, and gained thereby the habits of
thrift, industry, and enterprise which have made him uninter-
ruptedly successful through life. He was also afforded ex-
cellent advantages at school, and prepared himself to enter the
Ohio Wesleyan university at Delaware, O., with a view of study-
ing law. When but a lad of fourteen he was promised by an
eccentric old gentleman, a Mr. Oldham, a school to teach if he
could obtain a certificate from the board of examiners. En-
couraged by this incentive he at once set to work to make the
attempt, and appearing with some fifty or sixty other appli-
cants before the board at Marion, passed the examination with
flying colors, and was complimented by the examiner, Mr. John
J. Williams, who was enough impressed with his youthfulness
to address him, "My boy." Mr. Oldham was as good as his
word, and young Strowbridge finished his term with success
and pleasure, although many of his pupils were older and larger
than himself.
" He deemed it a considerable sacrifice to forego his plan of
study, and come to Oregon. The journey was undertaken in
October, 185 1, and was performed that autumn across the sev-
eral States with the comparatively easy and expeditious con-
veyance of horse teams to St. Joseph, Mo. There the winter
was spent in taking care of the stock and giving attention to
matters pertaining to the comfort of the family, while the
young man secured a school by the employment of a Mr. Rob-
inson, and, gathering a considerable number of pupils, taught a
very pleasant term.
"The rest of the journey was performed in the season 1852.
That was the vear of the great immigration, when cholera raged
among the tf-ains and tents, and dotted the wayside with graves.
Mr. Strowbridge's family was invaded by the pestilence, and
one of the children, a little boy, fell a victim to the scourge.
By" this event the father was very much dispirited, and feeling
anxious and apprehensive for the safety of his family, and deter-
mined to do all in his power to get them to Oregon alive, he
256 GENEALOGY.
took upon hinself great burdens and cares, and moreover con-
tracted mountain or typhoid fever. He took sick at The Dalles,
and died soon after reaching Portland. By this severe blow J.
A. Strowbridge, still but a youth, was greatly distressed, and
thought that life henceforth would be insupportable, or even im-
possible, in the absence of this greatly beloved parent. He was
himself sick, and now felt the responsibility of his mother's fam-
ily. In his great trouble, however, he found the people of Port-
land,— then but a little hamlet in the deep woods, — big-hearted
and kind, and ready to make his life as cheerful as possible.
Following close upon the bereavement of the family by the
death of the father, came the loss of the entire band of stock,
worth many thousand dollars, which had been brought across the
plains with the greatest care and without loss. Their destruc-
tion was brought about by the fall, near the middle of Decem-
ber, 1852, of about two feet of snow, which lay on the ground
many weeks, making grazing impossible, while feed was not to
be had.
"Thus, upon the opening of the season 1853, Mr, Strowbridge
found himself in a new country, practically without means, and
with no rescources except such as were in his own courageous
heart, active brain, and willing hands. Setting to work bravely,
and taking any employment that was offered, he soon had some
means ahead, and forming a business connection, in a small
way, with San Francisco, greatly improved his outlook. In
1853 he bought a few boxes of Oregon green apples, which
were among the first, if not the very first, placed in the San
Francisco market. Going into the business more extensively,
he made a tour among the farmers, and encouraged them to set
out apple orchards, offering as an inducement that he would
take all that they could raise at from fifteen to thirty cents a
pound, — from five to twelve dollars a box. By this time he be-
came one of the first to inaugurate the shipping of fresh fruit,
a business which had increased to such an extent by i860 that
the total shipments of apples from Oregon amounted to over
one hundred thousand boxes. The first results of his labors
were, however, swept away by the failure of Adams & Co.,
bankers and expressmen, at San Francisco; for upon going to
that city at the request of his commission merchants, he put
into Adams & Co.'s bank, for safe keeping, his entire avails, and
but a few days after learned, in common with many others, that
the establishment had totally failed. He improved his remain-
ing time at the city, however, by examining the produce market,
both as to stock on hand, and that incoming, as indicated by the
STRAWBRIDGE AND STROWBRIDGE. 257
shipping lists from New York. Returning to Oregon, he en-
tered boldy, almost without money, into the produce and com-
mission business in Portland and surrounding country. By
very careful calculations, and exact methods, and the timely
tender by a friend of a small sum of money, which he was soon
able to return, he made rapid financial headway, and has never
been obliged to seek aid outside of his own resources. Never
since his first establishment has he worked for a salary, but has
been controller and operator of large kinds of business, and one
of those men that seek employees instead of employment.
Continuing his trade in produce, he transferred his interests, in
1859, to the boot and shoe trade, forming a partnership with
Mr. C. M. Wiberg. In 1870 the firm closed out, and Mr.
Strowbridge made a specialty of leather and shoe findings.
" In the great fire of 1873 he was burned out and lost heavily,
but was among the first to rebuild, and to get a stock again on
the market. He has followed this business with great fidelity
up to the present time, becoming known for his integrity and
fair dealing. He has been successful, reaping the honest fruits
of his application, sagacity, and good investments. He has the
satisfaction of liquidating all honest debts the moment they are
due, of paying a hundred cents on the dollar, and of know-
ing that no one ever lost a farthing through him. This is a
clean and handsome record, of which any man may be proud.
He is one of our men of wealth, who holds nothing but what
legitimately belongs to him. He has been extensively engaged
in real estate operations in the city, and has pursued the liberal
policy of improving his property, and thus furnishing accom-
modations for business and stimulating the growth of the city.
In addition to this record in exact affairs, he has been closely
identified with public measures to develop the city and state.
Inclined to be conservative, believing rather in steady growth
than in ephemeral excitement, and quiet and careful, he has,
nevertheless, done more than could be told within these pages
to make Portland a true emporium.
" In the interest of public good and philanthropy he has a
wide influence, being a friend of the public schools and of the
churches, contributing to almost every religious organization in
the city.
" He was one of the first members of the Portland volunteer
fire department, organized about 1853, and is now an exempt
and honorary member. He has been a member of the Portland
Board of Trade since its first organization. He was one of the
incorporators of Lone Fir cemetery.

"He is a member of the Boys' and Girls' Aid society; a direc-
tor in the Pacific Fire Insurance Co.; a member of the board
of trustees of the First Congregational church, and was one of
the first members of the Portland Library, and has a perpetual
membership therein.
"Mr. Strowbridge has steadily refused all political offices, ex-
cept that in June, 1888, he suffered his name to be used in
nomination as representative from Multnomah co.; and his
popularity was attested by the largest majority on the whole
legislative ticket, as he received 6,052 votes out of 9,384 cast.

"ROBERT STRAWBRIDGE was b. at Drummer's Nave,
near Carrick-on-Shannon, Co. of Leitrim, Ire. He came to the
United States some time between 1760 and 1765, settling on
Sam's Creek, Frederick co., Md. He was a Methodist local
preacher, having preached in Ireland, although it is uncertain
whether he had ever been regularly licensed. He was an ear-
nest Christian, and finding no religious services in the section
where he settled, he commenced preaching in his own house,
and subsequently a small log chapel was erected about a mile
from his dwelling. This building, however, though sometimes
spoken of as the first Methodist church in Maryland, was never
deeded to the church and was never finished.
"He preached in several places in Maryland, especially in
Harford and F'rederick counties. In 1769 he was joined in his
labors by others, and under their joint efforts several societies
were organized. Richard Owings, the first native American
preacher, was converted under his ministry.
"When the Revolutionary war broke out most of the minis-
ters who had come over from England retired, and the societies
were left without care or pastoral supervision. He took charge
of the society at Sam's Creek and of Bush Forest in Harford
CO., and continued to be their preacher for about five years.
"It was in 1773 that his name first appears on the Confer-
ence minutes as one of the preachers assisting Mr. (afterwards
Bishop) Asbury, on the Baltimore circuit. In 1776 he rem. his
family to a farm not far from Baltimore, the use of which was
presented to him during his life by Captain Ridgely, its owner.
He d. in the summer of 1781, and was buried on the farm of
Mr. Wheeler, near Baltimore. There is no specimen of his
handwriting now extant. In the deed of property to his son,
and in the letters of administration, the name is written ' Stro-
bridge,' although it appears as 'Strawbridge' in the Conference
minutes." — (Condensed from " McClintock & Strong's Cyclo-
pedia," and "The Cyclopedia of Methodism," by Bishop Simp-
son.

In Book No. 12, folio 358 (of decedents' estates, Baltimore,
Md., records), there is an inventory of the estate of Robert
Strowbridge, footing up ^6107, 12, 6. Among the items
which are set forth in great detail are " Sundry books of Sundry
Kinds," and " i tea cittle." Elizabeth Strowbridge was ap-
pointed administratrix, with John Long and Thomas Dew as
bondsmen. Right here the record stops and no sale or other
proceedings are mentioned. The administration was granted
May 22, 1782.
In Land Record (^d\\\xviQ)XQ) Liber, W. G, No. $2, folio 238, is
a lease from George Brown, physician, to Theophilus Strow-
bridge, of a lot on the north-east side of Green street, on the
west side of Jones' Falls in Baltimore City. The yearly ground
rent is $30, gold, and the term of the lease 99 years, dated May
I, 1794.
In Liber, IV. G, No. 52, folio 244, there is an assignment of
the foregoing lease, by Theophilus Strowbridge, merchant,
to George Strowbridge; consideration, £i7S\ date, June 3,
1797.
In Admu. Acct.^. (Baltimore), yVi?. 4, foho 221, is mentioned
the granting of letters of administration on the estates of The-
ophilus Strowbridge and Abegal Strowbridge, both on the
same day, viz: Jan. 27, 1808, to Jesse Strowbridge, with George
Strowbridge and Thomas Crawford as bondsmen. No inven-
tory returned as to Theophilus. Abegal's amounted to $138.35.
Whether Theophilus Strowbridge, and George and Abegal
Strowbridge were of the family of Rev. Robert, can not be de-
termined, but presumably they were.
"A beautiful memorial church has been erected to his mem-
ory in Baltimore, and an interesting tablet placed in the church

ment of his granddaughter, the late Mrs. Martha (Strawbridge)
Brown, the name of the ancestor of this branch of the Straw-
bridge Family. No positive evidence as to his place of resi-
dence has been obtained, but it is believed ^by many of his
descendants that he came direct from England to America,
although some claim that he was from the north of Ireland.^
One branch of his descendants has the tradition that he was
an Englishman of rank, who was disinherited by his family on
account of marrying a Scotch girl of inferior position. Where
he lived after coming to America, who his wife was, or when
they died, it is not possible to ascertain.
Their Children were

JOHN STRAWBRIDGE2, son of Joseph (1), m.
He had land in York co., recorded in the office of Registrar of
Deeds of that, county as follows :
"Oct. 25, 1826, a lot of land in Fawn township, containing
80 acres, alleged and described as adjoining lands of Jacob Hed-
rick, James Duncan (formerly Kennard), and others. It was a
part of a tract called 'Payne's Woods,' and from names of ad-
joining land owners would seem to have adjoined that of Joseph
Strawbridge, who purchased in 1807. Of these two tracts Mr.
Jos. R. Strawbridge of York, Pa., says, 'I am satisfied that they
made up together the very land owned by my grandfather, John
Strawbridge (who heads this paragraph), at the time of his
death, and which became subsequently the property of my
father's brother Joseph."

joyned in marriage July ye 9th, 1705." (East Haddam, Conn.,
Records.)
"Farmer's M. S. notes that two of the name (Trowbridge),
had been graduates at Harvard, two at Yale, but very curious is
the fact that records of town and ch at Haddam, where one
branch of the surname spread, give it Straivbridge." (Savage's
Gen. Diet.)
[In answer to inquiries, the present (1891) town clerk of East
Haddam reports that the above item is all that the records con-
tain about persons named Strawbridge. — m. s. p. g.]
"WM. STRAWBRIDGE, Baptist minister, b. 1757, d. at
Lower Providence, Pa., aged 73." (Allen's Am. Biog. Diet.)
