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- 


*  This  refers  to  the  subjugation  by  the  English  government  of  the  rebellious  Catholics  of  Ireland, 
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 


Vlll  INTRODUCTION. 

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 


INTRODUCTION.  IX 

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 


*  The  author  believes  that  her  ancestress,  Sarah  (Montgomery)  Strobridge,  was  of  the  lineage  of 
this  same  Hugh  of  Eglinton.

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. 
I  speak,  remember,  chiefly  of  the  period  running  from    1605   to 

*  The  italics  are  the  author's,  for  she  wishes  to  call  particular  attention  to  tliese  two  paragraphs, 
since  it  is  among  these  English  colonists  that  we  have  to  look  for  the  ancestors  of  the  Strobridges, 
and  of  most  of  the  Sirawbrideces  of  this  work. 


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.

"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

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. 


XVI  INTRODL'CTION. 

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

been  brother  to  the  following  : 

WILLIAM,  JAMES,  and  THOMAS  STROBRIDGE, 
brothers,  came  to  Middleborough,  Mass.,  exact  date  of  arrival 
not  known.

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  on  a  bridge  of  3  arches  gu  a  tower  of  the  last  and

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

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

Robert,  Huijh,  Isabel,  Jean,  and  M.ir^-arct,  while  Sarah,  his

Although  the  relationship  between  this  William  and  the  John

at  present  be  shown,  she  feels  sure  that  such  relationship  ex- 
isted, and  that  it  is  her  own  line  which  she  has  traced  back.

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-

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

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.  >'

1772,  he  was  living  in  Dartmouth,  Mass.,  and  his  signature  to  a 

deed  given  by  him  that  year 
is  here  reproduced.  In  1798 
l(^  he  owned  and  occupied  a 
house  on  Newbury  street, 
lioston  ;  said  house  was  three  stories  in  height,  had  thirty 
windows,  and  was  valued  at  $3,000.  Mrs.  Isabel  (Montgomery)

*  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.

JEAN  MONTGOMERY^,  dau.  of  Mary  Strobridge  (2), 
was  b.  in  Middleborough,  Mass.  ;  bapt.  Nov.  28,  1758,  by  Rev. 
John  Morehead  of  Boston  ;  m.  Gershom  Foster  ;  had  4  daus.

LIEUT,  ROBERT  STROBRIDGE^,  son  of  Henry  (3), 
was  b.  about  1752,  probably  in  Middleborough,  Mass.;  bapt, 
Aug,  22,  1752,  by  Rev.  John  Morehead  of  Boston;  m.  Oct,  22, 
1778,  by  Rev.  Ebenezer  Hinds,  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  Dea,  Wil- 
liam and  Elizabeth 
(Howl  and)  Nel- 
son* ;  she  was  b. 
about  1750;  m.  (2) 
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. —

"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.

ANNA  STROHRIIXiK'.  dau.  of  Henry  (3),  was  b.  Feb. 
26,  1/55,  in  Midcllcborough,  Mass.;  bapt.  Nov.  12,  1756,  by 
Rev.  John  Morchcad  of  Hoston  ;  m.,  Dec.  I,  1774,  Joseph,  son 
of  Joshua  and  Kcziah  (Paddock)  Dean*  of  Taunton,  Mass.,  who 

•  The  .inccMor  of  Joseph  Tiexn  was  Walter  Deane,  who.  »!•'  '  '  -  ther  John,  emigrated  from 
Kii^l.tiul  .ilioiit   l^^7,  ami   aMcr    tu-.<rly   a  year's  residence  in   I'  settled  at  Taunton,  Mass. 

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."

STROBRIDGE    FAMILY.  33

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

ought  to  last  you  through  the  day.'"

struction of  which  only  the  best  materials  were  used,  and  when 
finished  was  the  most  elegant  dwelling  in  town.  He  died  Sept.

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

ROBERT  STROBRIDGE,  JR.^  .son  of  Lieut.  Robert 
(31),  was  b.  Apr.  6,  1785  ;  his  father  dying  when  Robert  was  a 
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. 
Oct.  28,  1775,  in  Taunton,  Mass.;  "married  by  a  Justice  of  the 
Peace  in  Ti\'ertown,  by  the  name  of  Hicks,  on  the  26th  Day  of 
July,  1803,  to  the  amiable  Miss  Susan  Leavitt  Padelford, 
only  Daughter  of  Samuel   Padelford." 

The  above  is  from  Mr.  Dean's  own  memorandum  of  his  mar- 
riage. In  it  he  has  omitted  a  portion  of  his  wife's  name,  which 
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

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

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,

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.

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.

CAPT.    JOHN    WINSLOW    STROWBRIDGE*,    son    of 

Thomas  Hknkv  (53),  was  b.  Feb.    26,  1827,  in ,  N.  Y.  ;   m, 

1851,  Lydia  a.,  dau.  of  Dea.  Silas  and (Sa.xton)  Ham- 
mond, who  has  been  for  many  years  a  practising  physician  in 
Cortland,  N.  Y.,  where  they  res.  Doctor  Strowbridge  has  worn 
the  bloomer  costume  since  1854,  and  is  an  earnest  believer  in 
woman   suffrage. 

In  1S64  Mr.  Strowbridge  responded  to  the  country's  call  for 
soldiers  by  raising  a  company  in  the  185th  regt.,  N.  Y.  State 
vols.,  and  went  out  as  captain  of  Co.  ¥. 

They  left  Syracuse  Sept.  23,  1864,  and  were  in  the  trenches 
not  far  from  City  I'oint  in  about  a  week. 

Captain  Strowbridge  was  in  the  following  battles  :  First 
Hatcher's  Run,  Oct.  26  and  27,  1864;  Weldon  Run,  Dec.  6- 
12,  1864  ;  second  Hatcher's  Run,  Feb.  26,  1865  ;  Watkins'  Farm, 
Mch.  25;  Juckcr  Roads,  Mch.  29;  Gravelly  Run,  Mch.  31; 
Oak  Roads,  Five  Forks,  Apr.  i  ;  Appomatto.x  Court  House, 
Apr.  9,  1865,  and  in  the  final  battles  before  Petersburg,  and 
was  among  those  who  took  the  arms  from  the  Confederates 
when  Lee  surrendered.  He  has  a  bo.x  of  cartridges  which  he  re- 
ceived from  the  hands  of  Governor  Wise  at  the  time  of  the  sur- 
render. Mrs.  Strowbridge  writes,  "His  army  life  was  short  as 
months  are  counted,  but  it  was  full  of  work  and  anxiety,  both 
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. "

Phalanx,  a  joint  stock  association  in  Monmouth  county,  N.  J. 
Here  she  remained  a  year  and  a  half,  and  was  present  at  the 


STROBRIDOE    FAMILV.  99 

final  breakinf(-ii|)  of  the  association  in  Oct.,  1855.  She  was  m. 
in  Lowell,  Mass.,  Oct.  7,  1857,  to  Isaac  Okk,  son  of  Isaac 
and  Ik'tsey  (Tracy)  Guild,  who  was  b.  in  Francestown,  N.  H., 
June  i(),  1 83 1.  Mr.  Guild  was  at  the  time  and  for  thirty  years 
following;,  in  the  marble  business  at  Lynn,  Mass. 

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.

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,

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 
many,  who  would  have  enjoyed  seeing  his  portrait,  of  a  great 

pleasure.

SAMUEL  WILLARD  LULL-',  son  of  Hannah  Strobridge 
(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-

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.

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

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,

He  was  chosen  town- clerk  of  Middleborough  in  Mch.,  1851, 
and  treasurer  and  collector  in  the  following  September,  and  re- 
tained these  offices  until  Mch.,  1855.  He  was  associated  with 
others  in  the  steam  mill  in  Middleborough.  He  was  also  in 
partnership  with  a  Mr.  Tinkham,  in  a  store  in  Middleborough, 
and  afterwards  with  Mr.  Waterman.  His  last  business  was  in 
a  small  store  near  the  old  town -house  in  Middleborou2:h.  He 
united  with  the  Central  Congregational  church  in  Middlebor- 
ough, on  profession  of  faith,  Mch.  3,  1871.  He  was  never  m.; 
d.  July  19,  1872,  and  was  buried  in  the  Central  cemetery.  He 
was  a  man  greatly  respected  and  justly  received  the  epitaph, 

"  An  honest  man  's  the  noblest  work  of  God."

OF 


WILLIAM  AM)  SAKAII  (Md.NKOMERV)  MORRISON 


BY 

MRS.    MARY    STILES   (PAUL)   GUILD 


While  I  am  not  one  that  worsliips  blood,  still  I  believe  that  many  a  man  is 
encouraged  to  greater  efforts  by  knowing  that  liis  race  has  been  of  progres- 
sive stock.  Bradford  Morse. 

Riverside,  Cal.,  March,   1S91. 


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."

"Old  John  (iuillim  says,  writing  two  hundred  years  before 
Burke,  who  seems  to  have  copie.d  him  almost  word  for  word-: 


INTRODUCTION.  163 

'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

b.  in  1728  ;  she  was  a  sister  of  Elder  John  Montgomery  of  Mid-

His  nine  children  were  once  placed  together  on  the  hay  scales,

ALEXANDER  MORRISON2,  son  of  William  (1),  was  b. 
in  North  Bridgewater,  Mass.,  (probably);  bapt.  Aug.  25,  1752,  by 

by  Rev.  John  Morehead  of 
C/^^^^OifjC^^vxP  a^  ry^v-^r^y*^ ^^^^"^^    Hoston  ;    m.   (i)   Ann,  dau. 

of  John  and  sister  of  Wil- 
liam Thomp.son  of  Blandford,  Mass.  ;  m.  (2)  Mk.s.  Henry, 

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- 


*  The  author  has  made  considerable  effort  to  ascertain  whether,  if,  as  seems  probable,  Mr.  Henry 
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

wold  occupied  a  cabin  on  village  lot  No.  71,  William  Thompson

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." 

Below  will  be  found  a  copy  of  a  letter  from  Alexander  Mor- 
rison of  Worthington,  O.,  to  his  half-brother,  William  Stro-

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.

Shakers  at  Union  Village,  C).  One  of  the  brethren  of  the  societ)', 
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

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

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

Rec.  May  20,  1802." 

There  is  also:     "42,415.     James  Morrison,  of  Harpersfield, 

Delaware  co.,  N.  Y.,  yeoman,  to  -^ 100  acres,  part  of  lot

"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.)

JOHN  MORRISONS  son  of  William  (3),  was  b,  Mch.  3, 
1784,  in  Middlcborough,  Mass.  In  1805  his  parents  rem.  to 
Farmington,  Me.     His  son  relates  the  following: 

"  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,

SALLY  MORRISONS  dau.  of  Alexander  (4),  m.  George 
Wilson,  i)robal)ly  in  Blandford,  Mass.  She  did  not  rem.  to 
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-

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

years  later,  Milton  and  his  brotliers  and  sister  were  brought

has  been  engaged  in  stock-raising.  He  went  to  California  in

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

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.

REV.  CHESTER  MORRISON*,  son  of  James,  Jr.  (33), 
was  b.  Jan.  18,  1808,  in  Geneva,  Ashtabula  co.,  O.  Through 
an  accident  in  his  youth  he  lost  all  of  his  right  hand  excepting 


*  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Johnson  were  among  the   first  settlers  of   Delaware  co.,  O.,  and   came   from 
Virginia.

mother  dying  at  the  hour  of  his  birth,  he  was  given  to  an  uncle 
by  the  name  of  Lawton,  whose  wife,  Scwd/t.^  was  a  sister  of 
his  father.  From  these  relatives  he  received  all  the  love  and 
care  bestowed  by  the  kindest  parents,  never  knowing  any  dif- 
ference. In  their  quiet,  humble  home  he  grew  to  boyhood  with 
such  advantages  of  schooling  as  the  common  schools  of  that 
day  afforded.  At  the  age  of  15  years  his  uncle  sold  his  farm,

REV.  W.  H.  MORRISON^,  son  of  William  (67),  was  b.

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.

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 

*  Since  this  section  was  prepared  a  fact  has  come  to  light  which  proves  that  Rev.  Thomas  and 
the  Chester  Co.,  Pa.,  Strawbridges  belonged  to  the  same  branch,  although  the  exact  relationship  is  not 
yet  discovered.

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. 

Children. 

ONLY    TWO   ARE   NAMED,    BUT    VERY    LIKELY    THERE    WERE    OTHERS.

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. 

"March  5,  1755,  letter  of  attorney  granted  by  Christiana  Gul- 
ielma Penn  to  William  Peters  and  Richard  Hockley  of  Philadel-

formed the  autlior  tliat  Dr.  James  Stravvi)ridge  of  Danville,  Pa.,  a  consin  (?)  of  his  father,  visited 
at  his  father's  some  years  ago.  As  Doctor  Strawbridge  was  himself  a  descendant  of  James,  the 
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 :

sion of  the  farm  he  lives  on  with  the  buildings.  My  desire  now  is  to  enable

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

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  .').

early  education  at  the  West  Chester  Military  academy,  whence  he 
graduated  first  in  his  class.  He  afterwards  attended  the  Rensse- 
laer Polytechnic  institute  at  Troy,  N.  Y.,  from  which  he  graduated 
in  mechanical  and  metallurgical  engineering,  chemistry,  and  elec- 
tricity with  the  second  honors  of  his  class.  He  then  studied  law 
in  the  office  of  ex-Judge  F.  Carroll  Brewster,  Philadelphia,  and  dur- 
ing the  attorney-generalship  of  that  gentleman  was  his  assistant. 
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- 
pointed by  the  government  assistant  attorney-general  of  the  United 
States,  a  few  years  since,  in  the  case  brought  by  it  against  the 
American  Bell  Telephone  co.,  for  the  cancellation  of  the  patents  on 
telephones  granted  to  Alexander  Graham  Bell.

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.]

Portland,  Ore.,  which  they  reached  in  1852,  having  made  the 
journey  in  wagons.  They  were  one  year  on  the  way.  Mr. 
Strowbridge  d.  three  days  after  arriving  in  Portland.  Mrs. 
Strowbridge  d.  there,  Aug.  8,  1880.  They  were  Presbyterians

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 
Philip  Strawbridge  of  Mahoning  township,  is  dated  Apr.  i,

SHOBEL  STROWBRIDGE2,  son  of  Justus  (3),  m.  Louisa 
Maus,  a  cousin.  On  Apr.  10,  1830,  they  were  of  Union  town- 
ship, Union  co.,  Pa.,  when  they  gave  a  deed  to  Philip  Straw- 
bridge  of  Mahoning  township,  Columbia  co..  Pa.,  which  is  rec- 
orded in  the  Columbia  co.  records  at  Bloomsburg,  Pa.  There, 
also,  is  found  recorded  that  letters  of  administration  were 
granted,  18 14,  on  the  estate  of  Shobel  Strawbridge.  Mrs.  Mary 
B.  Strowbridge's  account  says  that  Shobel  Strowbridge  lived 
many  years  in  Cincinnati,  O.,  and  that  he  was  a  Methodist  min- 
ister. The  following  was  obtained  from  the  records  of  Colum- 
bia CO.,  Pa.: 

"Shobel  Strawbridge  late  of  Vall&y  township  Col  Co.  Pa.  about  1841.

HON.     JOSEPH    A.     STROWBRIDGE. 


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.

SECTION   V. 


"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 
by  the  Local  Preachers'  Association,  to  his  memory." — (Letter 
of  Rev.  John  F.  Goucher  of  Baltimore,  who,  as  pastor,  superin- 
tended the  erection  of  the  church,  to  the  author.)

JOSEPH  STRAWBRIDGEi  was,  according  to  the  state- 
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.

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

follows.  He  was  born  in  Lancaster  co.,  Pa.,  in  1805,  of  Eng- 
lish extraction.  My  mother's  maiden  name  was  Hoffman  and 
she  was  German,  for  she  taught  me  to  speak  that  language. 
Grandfather  Strawbridge  was  born  in  Gloucester,  England  ;  of 
that  I  am  positive.  My  father  had  every  appearance  of  an  Eng- 
lishman."

Miscellaneous. 


"BENIAMINE  STRAWBRIDGE  and  Hanah  acly  were 
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.) 

"Alcxr.  McLean  and  Jean  Stkawhridge  m.  Sept.  3,  1763."
