FORWARD
Reprinting genealogical material without adding corrections,
or expanding on the original material, sometimes meets with
criticism. This may be particularly true regarding material
contained in the History of the Andrews Family.
The intent here is to make previously published, but out of
print, secondary source material available. It is felt that
correcting another's work, without his or her consent and
approval, is arrogant. The book is not presented in any way
except as a reprint of the author's original work.
With this in mind, the reader is cautioned that other genea-
logical researchers have presented material disagreeing with
some of the conclusions of this author. Their material has
been both deposited in libraries and printed in genealogical
publications, most notably New England Historic Genealogical
Society's Register.
INTRODUCTION.
The researches for this work have extended over a period of
more than twenty years, conducted unier f.d verse circumstances ;
one of which has been remoteness from the old family homes,
in Massachusetts and Maine, where the records and information
necessary for the history were to be principally found. The
writer has never had the pleasure to visit Ipswich, Massachu-
setts, the cradle of the family in America ; had this privilege
been accorded, no doubt this book would have been more full,
complete and accurate; but his investigations have been con-
ducted largely through an extensive correspondence ; with the
inspection of such books and copies of records as could be
secured ; aided by the testimony of living witnesses.
About the year 1867, he procure! from his grandfather.
Isaac S. Andrews, then 79 years old, a man of remarkable mem-
orv, who was well accjuainted with his kinsmen in Massachu-
setts and Maine, an account of the family history, as far back
as his grandfather, Solomon Andrews. Except for this infor-
mation, so timely preserved, it would have been more difficult
to connect the relationship back to the first settlers, and per-
haps this book would never have been written.
The identification of members of the family by a living
witness, back to about the year 1750, has been of priceless
value in establishing the Family Genealogy.
Until within the last few years, little has been published on
this branch of the family. No connected Genealogy of this
family has V)een published prior to this work.
6 HISTORY OF THE ANDREWS FAMILY
The Andrews Memorial, published in 1872, barely mentions
Robert Andros, of Ipswich, 1035, and his children.
General Christopher C. Andrews, of St. Paul, has published
some disconnected extracts from the records of Ipswich and
Salem, in the Maine Historical and Genealogical Recorder in
1886-8. The writer had never seen these papers until 1889,
but had procured similar information from the same records,
though not so full.
We desire to acknowledge valuable assistance, by information
furnished for this work; by General C. C. Andrews, above;
S. M. Watson, Esq., editor of the Maine Historical and Genea-
logical Recorder, of Portland, Maine; from the Abraham Ham-
matt Papers; the Ipswich Antiquarian Papers, by Augustine
Caldwell, Esq., and Arthur C. Dowe, Esq., of Ipswich; the An-
drews Memorial, by Rev. Alfred Andrews; Savage's Genea-
logical Dictionary ; the Stearns Genealogy, by Dr. Solomon S.
Stearns, of Washington D. C. ; the Amos Otis Papers ; the Port-
land Transcript; and from the many friends who have kindly
furnished family records, etc.
It is with hesitation that we present these pages to our kins-
folks, not unmindful that they probably contain some unavoid-
able errors, and other imperfections.
It has been prepared chiefly during the hours taken from
busy professional cares and duties.
We trust it will assist in preserving and perpetuating the
history of Robert Andrews and his descendants, and make the
family better acquainted, one with the other; hoping that other
hands may improve and complete what is here presented.
The writer has acquired many pleasant acquaintances during
the preperation of the history, and now submits the results of
his labors for the favorable inspection of the family.
With kindest regards,
H. F. Andrews.
Audubon, Iowa, November, 1890.
ORIGIN OF THE NAME.
Andrews is a Christian name. The English word Andrew,
and its equivalents in other languages has been used as a name
for members of the human family from the time of remote
antiquity.
The Greek word Avrip, pronounced with the long sound of the
last a, Anar, signifies a man, in the most comprehensive sense.
The Latin word Andreas, signifies a man, or manly, or like
a mart.
The English word Andrew means the same.
It was the name of tha first disciple of Jesus. One commen-
tator suggests, that probably the apostle had also a Hebrew
name, and that the name Andrew was given to characterize his
manly spirit, as his brother, whose Hebrew name was Simon,
was called Peter, the rock. Perhaps this was about the earliest
use to be found in history, of the word as the name of an
individual. Because of the fact that it was the name of so
distinguished and illustrious a personage in the annals of
Christian history, it is not improbable, but quite natural for the
believers and followers of Christ and his apostles to adopt and
continue this name ; the same as at present people name their
children after noted and illustrious persons. The home of
Andrew was at Bethsaida, in Gallilee, then a Roman province.
It is supposed that after the Crucifixion, this apostle preached
in Scythia, Greece and Epirus, and finally suffered martyrdom
at Patrse in Achaia, A. D. 62 or 70, on a cross called Si.
Andrew'' s Cross, formed thus: X
8 HISTORY OF THE ANDKEWS FAMILY.
St. Andretc, is the patron Saint of Scotland, and is also held
in great veneration in Russia as the apostle who according to
tradition first preached Christianity in that country. In both
countries there is an order of Knighthood named in his honor.
If these traditions are based upon facts, there were opportu-
nities to spread and perpetuate the name. Commiuiication
between the Jewish provinces and Rome, at that period, would
naturally take the name to the latter place ; and it would become
coined into the Latin language ; even if it had not been already
borrowed from the Greek ; just as we coin new words into our
language to-day. Names or nouns are words most readily
borrowed.
It was the most natural thing for the early Christians to pre-
serve the names of their saints ; their first teachers and preach-
ers; their authoriiies in doctrinal matter; they were land marks,
so to speak.
There are no acquirements more firmly impressed upon the
different races of people, than their religious customs and usfiges.
It may have been considered a mark of distinction to bear the
name of a martyred Christian. It may have been regarded
a duty by the Church to perpetuate the names of its saints and
martyrs, by bestowing them upon living individuals. The
signification of the name itself, alone, renders it peculiarly
appropriate a^ a name for man. When the name became
established once as a familiar one with the Romans, it
naturally spread through Christendom, to every place where the
Roman arms were victorious; or where the Christian religion
was established, and so we find it all over Europe; Andrea in
Italy; Andreas in Germany; Andre and Andrieux in France;
Andres in Spain; and Andrew with its various terminations and
corruptions in England.
In England it is a very old as well as common name: prob-
ably carried there by the Romans, Five hundred years of
Roman rule was sufficient to permanently fix the name there.
The English books on Heraldry give a full description of
many Coats of Arms of the different branches of the family.
Like many other old English names, the orthography has
THE NAME 9
liccu corniplcd ; there are various termiiiatimis which have as
little siguilicatiou a:s the Coals of A rins; ilu^ iiaiue is sjielled
variously, thus: Andrew, Andrews, Andrewes, Andros, An-
dross, Andrus, Andruss, Andras, Anders, Androse, j^ndrowes,
Androuse, Andores, &c , &c.
Antiquaries give little heed to the mere spelling of names;
either by living individuals or as found in records; as evidence
of relationship; other tests must be considered.
It is not uncommon to find known relatives at the present
iinie who spell their names differently; Two hundred years
ago and prior to that time there were no standards for English
orthography; the people spelled very carelessly, each to please
his fancy, any way and every way ; many were then unable to
read or write at all and trusted such matters to public scriveners
and to the parish officials; one clerk would spell the name in
his peculiar manner, while the clerk in a neighboring town
spelled it differently ; long continuance in the same place by
the same family, tended to the adoption of a form of the name
peculiar to a given family of relatives, while the separation of
relatives, exhibited frequently, a marked difference in the name.
In such ways the forms of the name have multiplied. It is
a wonder that our names have been so well preserved.
EARLY SETTLEMENT IN AMERICA.
It is the purpose of this work to deal particularly with the
Andrews family in America^ and with the facts and circum-
stances surrounding their early settlement here. To understand
the family history better, one should have a good knowledge
of English and Colonial history of those times.
The greater number of people in this country named
Andrews are of English origin.
We may safely date the settlement of the family among the
early emigrants to Massachusetts Bay Colony about the year
1630; a brief survey of the history of this settlement will inter-
est and assist us. In March, 1(528, a company of six gentlemen
in England, purchased from the Plymouth C mpany, the terri-
tory extending from a line three miles north of the Merrimack
river; thence to a line three miles south of the Charles river;
from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean. These purchasers soon
afterward conveyed an interest in their purchase to others, and
the number of join^ proprietors soon became mr.ch enlarged.
They assumed the title of "The Massacliujetts Bav
Company," and in a few days chose Matthew Cradock, a weal-
thy merchant of London, their governor and Thomas Goffe,
also a London merchani, deputy gov^ornor.
In June lt)28, John Endicott, a Puritan of liie sternest type
KAHJ.Y SK'ri'LKMKN"!' 11
was sent over with a C()m[)any of emigrants who landed at Salem
(Naiimkeag). and commeneed the settlement of that ancient
town.
Endieott was one of the original [)urchasers of the Plymouth
Company and was ap})ointed governor of the colony bnt not of
the company: the governor and government of the latter,
remained in Englrnd, and gave instructions for the government
of the colony.
Mr. Roger Conant, with three others, had fixed their abode
at Salem previously, but as he had not been sent there by the
company, his settlement was not allowed to give date to the
settlement of the town. March 4, KJ'iO, a charter was obtained
from King Charles I, incorporating them as the "Governor and
Company of Massachusetts Bay in New England;" the stock-
holders to elect annually, a governor, deputy governor, and
ei'J-hteen assistants, who were to administer the affairs of the
colony in monthly meetings. Four great and general courts
of the whole body of freemen, were to be held for the transac-
tion of public affairs. Nothing was to be enacted contrary to
the rio-hts of Englishmen, but the supreme power resided with
the company in England.
It was regarded as a patent for a trading corporation and no
specific provision was made on the subject of religion. A large
number of the })roprietors were attached to the Church of Eng-
land. Endieott having visited Plymouth, desired to establish
an independent church and renounce the use of Liturgy.
He became involved in a dispute with two brothers named
Browne, and who were among the original patentees, and who
desired to have the services of the Church of England fully
carried out in the colony. Endieott shipped them off' to Eng-
land as "factious and evil conditioned." The company repri-
manded him for this stretch of authority, but the complaints of
the Brownes were unheeded.
These matters took place during the troublesome times
between Charles I, and the Parliament: and the acts of the
Colonists with regard to Church discipline, undoubtedly
escaped the careful scrutiny of the home government: again,
12 HISTORY OF THK ANDREWS FAMILY.
the government was relieved from dissensions and disputes a t
home, between the non-conformists and the established Church
by the removal of the Puritans : and for that reason ignored
the wrangles among the colonists.
The English government did not exju-essly sanction or
approve the actions of the colonists in religious all'airs, but
rather avoided acting on the subject.
It had been a difficult (question for many years in England.
to deal with; but the discipline of the Established Church was
wilfully disregarded, and the Congregational Church, estab-
lished at an early day in Mass. Bay Colony.
The Puritans were not all alike, nor (jf one mind on the
subject of religious matters, except perhaps in their opposition
to the Established church; there were factions among tlu^m.
The settlers of Mass. Bay Colony were a ditferent ty})e from
the simon pure Puritan of the Plymouth Colony: Endicolt is
an example.
In July 1()21), Governor Cradock proposed to the (•()in]);!ny
to transfer the charter from Englciiul to the cok)iiy,- -■■to llioic
who shall inhabit there'' — which led to ii very important increase
in the number and distinction of the emigrants.
A meeting of the company was called August '2X. to discus;;
the question of the removal, and on the next day, it was dete]--
mined to be "the consent of the company that the governincnt
patent should be settled in New England."
At a court of the com])any on October 20. l(')2'.l, Mr. Jolni
Winthrop was elected governor, and John Humphrey was elected
deputy governor, for New England.
At the last meeting of the company in England on bt)ard
the Arabella, March 23, 1030, Mr. Thomas Dudley was elected
deputy governor, in place of Mr. Humphrey, who had concluded
not to go at that time.
As a result of these operations, seventeen emigrant shi]»s with
over one thousand passengers, left England for the colony, in
1630, of which fourteen sailed before June.
The principal persons were Sir Ilichard Saltonstall. Isaac
Johnson, and his wife Lady Arabella, sister to the Earl of
KARLY SHTTLKMENT 18
Lincoln. John Wintlirop and Thomns Dudley. These embarked
on the sliij) Arahclld. named after the Lady Arabella Johnson.
The emigrants included many persons of high character,
wealth and learning, amnng whom were four non-conformist
ministers. It was by far the most important expedition that
had ever left England for America.
More than two hundred of the emigrants, including Lady
Johnson and her husband, died before December 1630, from
hardships to which they were not innured.
Governor Winthrop was a nolile example of the English
gentleman: loyal, but firmly inclined to assert public liberty;
attached by old association to the church, he desired to see it
reformed upon what the Puritans deemed the pure basis of the
scripture.
They arrived in the bay in June 1()3(J, and found Endicott at
Charlestown ; where at first they contemplated forming a settle-
ment. The op]iosite peninsula then in posession oi a single
occupant named Blackstone. attracted his attention; here
Winthrop and his peo|)le began a settlement, named after the
English town of Boston, in Lincolnshire, from which many of
the emigrants came.
Other parties of emigrants as they continued to arrive settled
at various points in the vi3inity,and gave names to the towns
and villages founded and settled by them.
Each settlement at once assumed that township authority,
which forever since has formed so marked a feature in the
political organization of New England. The people assembled
in town meeting and voted taxes for local purjwses, and chose
thre3,five or seven of the principal inhabitants; at first under
other ninios bit early known as ''salestmsn," who had the
expenditure of the tax money, and the executive management of
town affairs; a treasurer and clerk were also chosen, and
a constable was soon added for the purpose of serving civil and
criminal processes.
Each town constituted, in fact, a little republic, almost com-
plete in itself.
About the time of the settlement of this colo:iy, several
14 HISTORY OF THE AN DREWS FAM I LY
members of the Andrews family in England, were men of dis-
tinction and occupied im})ortant positions in society, and in
public affairs. It will be well to call attention to some of them
as they were, to some extent, connected with colonial matters.
Mr. Richard Andrews, a merchant at the Mermaid, in Cheap-
side, London, a ''Godly man," who having lent £o()i) to Plym-
outh Colony in New England, gave it to the pt)or.
Winthrop says he gave many cattle by Mr. Hnmiry the
deputy governor, and £')44. by Mr. Peters, to Mass. Bay
Colony.
He was an Alderman in London, and one of the associates of
the Plymouth Company in l(t'2»).
The reader is cautioned to observe the distinction between
the terms company and colony; the latter was alwiy:; in Amer-
ica, the former usually in England.
Richard Andrews was written to by the court in L'i'j k
In October 1637, a tract of land extending three miles up
into the woods in the town of Scituate, Mass. . was granted to
Richard Andrctrs, Hartley, Shirley and Beauchani}).
Thomas Andrews was a member of the General (iourt of the
"Governor and Colony of Mass. Bay in New ir^ngland,, in lOi'.K
one year before the change of the charter to New England.
The court had two sessicms that year, and he was one of the
auditing committee. One writer siiggests: "from which it is
supposed, he was one who came over with Governor Winthro]>
and party." These fact-^ alone hardly wan-ant tlie inference.
Thomas Andrews was a London merchant and Lord Mayor
of London in the year lO-l-O, and made (/otton Mather his
chaplain. He is supj)osed to be a bi'oth(M- to Richard ;ibove
mentioned. Are ))olh the Thomas Andrews, aljove named
identical V
Bradford says: "the colony of Massachusetts Bay woiild
have failed, had it not been for the money and credit of the
Andrems, of England in connection with Shirley.
William Andrews, was master of the ship Elizabeth,
with passengers in 1(584. William Andrews was master of the
ship, John and Dorothy, from Ipswich, Eng. in 1()37 ;and his
BISHOP A:N DREWS 15
son William Jr. was master of the ship, Rose from Yarmouth,
England.
We should hardly do justice to the family history, if we
omitted to refer to Bishop Lancelot Andrewes, D. D. and
will quote from his biography:
Lancelot Andrews, D. D., Bishop of Winchester, one of
the most illustrious of the prelates of England, was born in
1555 in Thames street, Allhallows, Barking, London. His
father Thomas, was of the ancient family of the Suffolk
Andrewes ; in his later years he became master of Trinity House.
Lancelot was sent while a mere child to the Cooper's Free
School, Ratcliff, in the parish of Stepney. From this the youth
passed to Merchant Taylor's School, then under the celebrated
Richard Mulcaster. In 1571 he was entered at Pembroke
College, Cambridge. He was here one of the first four scholars
upon the foundation of Dr. Thomas Watts, successor of the
venerable Nowell. Contemporaneously he was appointed to a
scholarship in Jesus College, Oxford, at the request of the
founder(T)r. Price), by Queen Elizabeth. In 1574-5, he took
his degree of B. A. ; in 1576 he was chosen to a fellowship at
his college; in 1578 he proceeded M. A. ; in 1580 he was or-
dained, and in the same year his name appears as junior treasur-
er; in 1581 he was senior treasurer, and on July 11 was incor-
porated M. A. at Oxford.
On passing M. A. he was appointed catechist in his college
and read letters upon the Decalogue, afterward published
causing a furor of interest far and near, as his first quaint
biographer Isaacson tells. The notes of these lectures printed
in 1642, authenticate themselves; later editions have been
suspiciously enlarged, and otherwise altered for the worse.
The notes are historically valuable and inportant, inasmuch
as with Bishops Jewell and Bilson, he teaches in them, that
Christ is offered in a sacrament, that is, his offering represented
and a memory of his passion celebrated.
Nothing can be more definite or emphatic than Andrewes'
repudiation of a real external sacrifice in the bread and wine.
From the university Andrewes went into the North by invi-
16 HISTORY OF THE ANDREWS FAMILY
tation of Henry Hastings, Earl of Huntingdon, lord president
of the North. In 1585 he is again found at Cambridge taking
his degree of B. D. In 1588 he succeeded Crowley in the
vicarage of St. Giles, Cripplegate. Here he delivered his most
penetrative and striking sermons on the Tcmptaiion in the
wilderness, and the Lord's Prayer— the former published in
1592, the latter in 1611. In a great sermon on April 10, Easter
week, 1588, he most effectively, and with burning eloquence,
vindicated the Protestantism of the Church of England against
the Romanists. It sounds oddly to have "Mr. Calvin" adduced
herein and elsewhere as a new writer, with lavish praise and
affection. Passing other ecclesiastical advancements, Andrewes
was preferred by Grindal, at the suit of Walsingham, to the
prebendary stall of St. Pancrasin St. Paul's, London, in 1589.
The prebendary had "the courage of his opinions," for Sir
John Harington records that Sir Francis AValsingham his patron,
having laboured to get him to maintain certain points of ultra-
Puritanism, he refused, having, as the garalous knight, i a his
State of the Church of England, cunningly remarks, "too much
of the AvSpoi. in him to be scared with a councillor s frown or
blown aside with his breath," and accordingly answered him
plainly, that "they were not only against his learning, but his
conscience." On September (>, 1589, he succeeded Fulke as
master of his own college of Pembroke, being at the time, one
of the chaplains of Archbishop Whitgift. His mastership of
Pembroke was a success in every way. In 1589-90, as one of
the twelve chaplains of the queen, he preached before her, a
singularly outspoken sermon [March 4, 1590). Inthi? year, on
October 13, he preached his introductory lecture at St. Paul's
upon undertaking to comment upon the first four chapters of
Genesis. These form part of the Orplian Lectures, of the folio
of 1657, than which there is no richer contribution to the theo-
logical literature of England, notwithstanding the imperfection
of the notes in some cases. He was an incessant worker as well
as preacher. He delighted to move among the people, and yet
found time to meet with a society of antiquaries, whereof
BISHOP AiNDHEWS 17
Raleigh, Sidney, Burleigh, Arundel, the Herberts, Saville,
Stow, and Camden, were members. What by his often preach-
ing testifies Isaacson, at St Gile's, and his no less often reading
in St Paul's, he became so infirm that his friends despaired of
his life. His charities were lavish, and yet discriminative.
The dearth of 1594 exhibits him as another Joseph in his care
for the afflicted and poor of "the Israel of God."" In 1595 ap-
peared Tlic LanibcUi Articles, a landmark in our national church
history. Andrewes adopted the doctrine of St Augustine as
modified by Aquinas, Philosophically, as well as theologically,
his interpretations of these deep things remain a permanent
advance in theological-metaphysical thought. In 1598 he de-
clined offers of the two bishoprics of Ely and Salisbury, his
" nolo episcopari " resting on an intended alienation of the lands
attached to these sees. On Nov. 23, 1600, was preached at
Whitehall his memorable sermon on J ustification, around which
surged a controversy that is even now unspent. The preacher
maintained the evangelical view as opposed to the sacerdotal.
On July ■!, 1691, he was appointed Dean of Westminster, and
his sedulousness over the renowned school is magnified by Bish-
op Hacket in his Life of Arch ibi shop Williams. On July 25,
1603, Andrewes assisted at the coronation of James I. In 1604
he took part in the Hampton Court Conference, and better
service, was one of the committee to whom we owe our author-
ised version of Holy Scripture. The Dean frequently preached
before the king, and his majesty's own learning, given him
by George Buchanan, made him a sympathetic hearer.
Many of these sermons are memorable from their results
and place in our eclesiastical history. In 1605 he was appoint-
ed, after a third declinature, bishop of Chichester. In 1609
he published his Tortura Torti, in answer to Bellarmine's
Matthceus Tortus. This work is one of many bom of the
gunpowder plot and related controversies. It is packed full of
learning, and yet the argument moves freely. Nowhere does
Andrewes' scholarship cumber him. It is as a coat of mail,
strong but mobile. In this same year he was transferred from
13 HISTORY OF THE ANDREWS FAMILY
Chichester to Ely. His studiousness here was as intent as be-
fore. He again assailed Bellarmine in his Rcsponsio ad Apol-
ogiam, a treatise never answered. From 1()11 to 1018 Andrewes
is to be traced as a preacher and controversialist in season and
out of season. In 1617 he attended the king to Scotland. In
1618 he was translated to the see of Winchester. In this year
he proceeded to the Synod of Dort. Upon his return he became
in word and deed a model bishop, while in every prominent ec-
clesiastical event of the period he is seen in the front, but ever
walking in all beauty of modesty and benignity. His benefac-
tions were unprecedented. His learning made him the equal
friend of Grotious, and of the foremost contemporary scholars.
His preaching was unique for its combined rhetorical splen-
dor and scholarly richness, and yet we feel that the printed page
poorly represents the preaching. His piety was that of an an-
cient saint, semi-ascetic and unearthly in its self-denial, but
rooted in a deep and glowing love for his Lord. No shadow
rests on his beautiful and holy life. He died Sept. 25, 1626.
and the leaders in church and state mourned for him as for a
lather. [End ijclopcedia Briffanica. ]
Walter records this of him; Neal, bishop of Durham, and
bishop Andrewes were standing together behind the king's chair
at dinner, when king James turned to them and said "My lords,
can not I take my subjects' money when I want it without all
this formality in parliament?" bishop Neal readily answered,
"God forbid, sire, but you should, you are the breath of our
nostrils." The king then turned to bishop Andrewes; "Well, my
lord, and what say you?" "Sir," said Andrewes, "I have no
skill to judge of parliamentary cases." The king answered, "No
put offs, my lord, answer me immediately." "Then sir," said
he, "I think it lawful for you to take my brother Neal's money,
for he otfers it."
King James had such a veneration for this excellent prelate
that he refrained from all levity in his presence. He was made
a privy councilor by king James I, and was in no less esteem
with king Charles I. His was a life of prayer, a great portion
of five hours every day was spent in the exercise of devotion.
KARLY SETTLKRS 19
in his last sickness he continued, while awake, to pray audibly,
till his strength failed; and then by lifting his eyes, he showed
that he still prayed. He was a patron of learning, being mas-
ter of Latin, Greek. Hebrew, Chaldee, Syriac, and Arabic, beside
fifteen modern languages. He had brothers, Thomas, and Nich-
olas. — [Andrews Memorial. ]
This great man lived in the reigns of three sovereigns of
England ; queen Elizabeth, and kings James I, and Charles I,
with w^hom he was personally acquainted. He died only two
years before the organization of the Mass. Bay Company. The
subject of colonization had been agitated for years prior to that
time. It is very probable that one of his charitable nature
would have been actively interested in the subject, which may
have influenced his kindred to emigrate to America.
Another member of the family, who figured prominently in
colonial history, at a little later period, was Sir Edmund An-
dros; born in London in 1037. His father was an officer of
the royal household, and accompanied the royal family of
Charles II, into exile. He distinguished himself in the war
with the Dutch, in 1672, and appointed a major under Prince
Rupert. He was knighted by king Charles I, in 1678 ; was
governor of New York from 1674 to 1682. He was appointed
governor of the New England colonies, by king James II, in
1686 ,and attempted to consolidate the colonies of New England
into one royal province. He arrived at Boston in December
168(), with a royal frigate and two companies of troops to en-
force his authority : but his acts of tyranny aroused tli9 indigna-
tion of the people to that extent, that he was deposed by them
in 1689, and sent back to England. He was governor of Vir-
ginia from 1692 to 1698, and died in 1714. His obituary
notice gives his name Andrvivs, and speaks in high terms of
his honors, and career. Americans have been taught to regard
him as a tyrant, his government trusted him as a faithful public
officer. No doubt from his stand-point, he sought to perform
his duty to his country, and sovereign, honorably and consci-
entiously. His moral character was not assailed.
20 HISTORY OF THE ANDREWS FAMILY
From what has been already indicated, it will be seen readily
that the Andrews of England, were in positions to be influen-
tial with the government of the mother country, at and about
the time of the settlement of this colony; this being true, prob-
ably induced many of the family to emigrate there early in its
settlement ; and we find many of the name in the records of the
colony at that time.
Robert Andrew, and wife Grace, settled at Boxford, Mass.,
in 1630, and had children; John and Robert.
William Andrews, made free at Boston, Mar. 4, 1633. His
name appears on the record of the General Court as constable.
Thomas Andrews, of Dorchester, wife Ann, had three acres
of land granted him by the town, near his house, in 1634 ; his
son Thomas, baptised »June 23, 1639.
Robert Andrews, was at Chebacco, in Ipswich, 1()35; wife
Elizabeth; children, Alice, Rebecca, John, and Thomas; and
nephews, John, Thomas, and Robert Burnham; was an inn-
keeper.
Samuell Andrews, aged 37, and wife Jane, aged 30, child
Jane, aged 3, and child Elizabeth, aged 2, entered their names
and were examined at the custom house at Ipswich, Eng. for
passage in the ship Increase, for New England, 1635. He set-
tled at Saco, Me., and died the second year after his arrival.
His widow married Arthur Mackworth, probably his second
wife ; he had a dwelling on Falmouth Foreside,-Portland Me.
James Andrews, son of Samuell above, was born at Saco, and
removed with his mother upon her second marriage, to Falmouth.
He married Sarah, daughter of Michael Mitton, and grand
daughter of George Cleeves, one of the first owners of Cusli-
ings' Island, Portland- He had children, Elisha, who was a
lieutenant as early as 1689 under Church in his campaign a-
gainst the eastern mdians, and probably sons, James and
Joshua, who died before their father. James Andrews, came
into possession of Cushings' Island, then known as Andrews'
Island, as the dowry of his wife, and held it from 1667 until
1698.
EARLY SETTLERS 21
The deposition of James Ross, aged about seventy years,
who testified: " That he lived in Falmouth in Casco Bay the
greater part of his time from his majority till he was taken
by the indians in the fort with Cap* Davis and he very well
knew the island opposite Perpudock called Andross his island
& he never heard that any person claimed it but Mr James An-
dross in that Day and Time. Mr Andross had a Garrison house
on the island and he lived there as he was informed as his own
proper estate & he S** Ross lived there some times there in
S"* Mr Andross's house or Garrison with his uncle Skillings."
During the time of king Philips war, about August 9, 1676
the indians attacked Falmouth, burning the houses and killing
the people, among others Nathaniel Mitton, brother of An-
drews' wife. Some of the fugitives, including relatives of
Andrews, with the assistance of himself and the minister, Mr.
Burroughs, escaped to his island at the mouth of the harbor,
where he had a strong-hold, and secured themselves by building
a stone barricade over the cliff of "White Head," traces of which
may still be seen, and lived several months there under great
privations and dangers from the indians. Andrews abandoned
Falmouth, and died at Boston in 1704.
Thomas Andrews, and Joseph Andrews, drew house lots in
Hingham, Mass. September 18, 1635. It is said that Thomas,
the father came over with his only son, from Devonshire Eng.
and settled at Hingham, where the son, Joseph, was the first
town clerk.
Joseph Andrews, was made free at Boston, March 3, 1636,
made constable at Barre Cove, - now Hingham, July 8, 1686.
The same year he was deputy of the General Court at Boston
and one of a committee to inquire after the valuation of the sev-
eral towns, and was a member of the General Court of that year,
which sat until May 17, and was appointed one of a committee
to look after the boundary between Massachusetts and Plymouth
Colonies, and report at both courts, which was done at an ad-
journed session, August 1, 1637.
Goodman Andrews, was appointed 13th, March 1638, to run
22 HISTORY OF THE ANDREWS FAMILY
the line between Hingham and Weymouth. He was the father
of Joseph above, and lived in Hingham to a great age.
Thomas Andrews was a deputy to the general court from
Hingham in 1678. Samuel Andrews, in the Boston custom
house, in 1671; is a descendant of Thomas, and Joseph his son,
of Hingham, in 1635. The writer has a letter from him, dated
January 6, 1887; in which he says; "My ancestors came from
Devonshire, Eng., and settled in Hingham, Mass., in 1635,
where Joseph Andrews, was the first town clerk. I belong to
the ninth generation, in this country, and am an old boy, hav-
ing been born the nineteenth of April, 1809."
John Andrews, son of Captain Thomas, of Hingham mar-
ried Patience Nichols, September, 1658.
Thomas, Abigail and Ruth Andrews, of Hingham testified
in 1708 that Mehitable Warren loas not a wifdi..
December, 4. 1638, in record of quarter court, one William
Andrews, was for having made an assault on one Coggan, sen -
tenced to be severely whipped, and delivered up to whom tho
court shall direct; but on September 3, William Andrews, wh >
was formerly committed for his ill and insolent carriage, is by
this quarter court, held at Boston, released, and put to Mr. En-
dicott, who promises to pay Coggan £8, 10; Andrews to serve
Mr. Endicott the rest of the time.
Thomas Andrews, Watertown, Mass. afterwards at Oambridij ^
had wife Rebecca, and children, Thomas, bom Octol)er fifteenth
1641. Daniel, born ■. Rebecca, born A})ril eighteenth,
1646.
John Andrews, Ipswich, 1642, had wife Jane.
Rev. Samuel Andrews, son of Samuel and Elizabeth of Cam-
bridge, was born there January 2i), 1656, married Abio-ail,
daughter of Robert Treat, governor of Conn, and settled at
Milford; Conn., in 1685.
Mr. Samuel Andrews, and Mr. Cotton, the two fellowes of
Harvard college, were paid £50, for helping to carry on the
president's work, after Mr. Oakes' death.
John Andrews, a sea cooper, from Wales, came to America
about l(]f)-3, and married Susanna White, at Boston. An "An-
drews Memorial" ol: this family has been written and published
by Lieut. George Andrews, U. S. A.
Daniel Andrews, son of Thomas, of Watertown, was a school-
master in Salem, in 1072. Savage says: he was accused of
witchcraft, in 1092, — perhaps because he knew more than
some of his neighbors, — biit was released early the following
year, when reason prevailed, against the influence of Cotton
Mather.
John Andrews, and Mary his wife, settled at Farmington,
Conn., in lO-lO. A very full and complete genealogy of this
settler and his descendants, down to the year 1872, has been
compiled and published, by Eev. Alfred Andrews, of New Brit-
ian, Cann., o.ie of his descendants, under the title of "Andrews
Memorial.'' It contains 652 pages, embracing the names of
over 2000 descendants of John and Mary Andrews. This is
one of the best works on the Andrews family ever published in
Amarica ; while it is devoted principally to the authors branch
of the family, it contains much valuable information respecting
the family generally, and has been prepared at gr<^at labor and
expense, and with care. It will prove of inestimable value to
his kindred in establishing and preserving the family history
and relationship.
William Andrews, the first school-master at Hartford, Conn. ,
1()81): will dated April 1059: his name is on the monument of
the Center Church cemetery, as one of those who came from
Massachusetts, through the wilderness, with Rev. Thomas
Hooker; wife Mary died at Cambridge. Jan. 10. 1040; another
record says, at Braintree, Nov. 10, 1039; children, John, Eliz-
abeth, Thomas, Samuel ; second wife, Abigail.

It will be noticed that the ancestry of this family is not
founded on the traditional " Three brothers" theory; neither
is it improbable to suppose that the early settlers of the name
were related. The records in England would probably give
the information in many cases, if not in all. The antiquarian
would doubtless meet with success should he investigate the
subject, as has been done in numerous similar instances.
Note — In 1834 Farmer found of the name of Andrews,
fifteen graduates at Harvard, eight at Yale, and six at other
New England colleges.
JPSWICH 25
IPSWICH.
It was a frequent custom for the early settlers in America to
name the new homes after something in "Merrie England;""
sometimes for a noted person, again for the old home town there.
Ipswich, Mass., was named after Ipswich, in England, a
town in Essex. Ipswich, Mass., was the home of Robert An-
drews and his descendants from 1635 down to the time of the
Revolutionary war, so far as it relates to the writer's branch of
the family ; perhaps some of the kindred yet live there.
The papers in the Ipswich public library, prepared from th e
manuscripts of Abraham Hammatt, furnish considerable bio-
graphical information concerning the inhabitants of the place
from the first settlement of the town, in 1633, down to 1700.
He was an antiquarian and once lived at Bath, Me., from
1800 to 1836 ; then removed to Ipswich, where he resided until
his death, August 9, 1854, aged 74 years. The Ipswich Anti-
quarian papers, by Augustine Caldwell, and Arthur W. Dowe,
of Ipswich, furnish much information concerning the people
and affairs of the town from its earliest settlement. These
papers were published irregularly, from October, 1879 until
April, 1885.
We will notice a few of the earliest records of the place:

Captain Edward Johnson, of Wolmm, author of the history
of New England, entitled, " Wonder working Providence of
Sion's Savior in New England," and who was an ancestor of
of the Stearns branch of the Andrews family, found in the gen-
ealogy of this book, thus discoursed tm Ipswich, in 1()34:
This year came over a further supply of eminent instruments
for futhering this admirable worke of his, among whcmi the
Reverend and judicious servant of Christ, Mr. Nathaniel Ward,
who took up his station at the Towne of Ipswich, where the
faithful servants of Christ gathered the ninth Church of his.
This town is scituated on a faire and delightful River, whose
first rise or spring begins about five and twenty miles further
up in the Country, issuing forth in a very pleasant pond. But
soon after it betakes its course through a most hideous swamp
of large extent, even for many miles, being a great Harbour for
Beares; after its coming forth at this place, it groweth larger
iPSWlt'H 27
by the income of many small rivers, and issues forth in the sea,
due east over against the Island of sholes, a great place of fish-
ing for our English Nation. The peopling of this Towne is by
men of good ranke and quality, many of them having the yearly
Revenue of large lands in England before they come to this
wilderness, but their Estates being imployed for Christ, and
left in banke, as you have formerly heard, they are well content
till Christ shall be pleased to restore it againe to them or theirs
which in all reason should be out of the Prelate's Lands in
England. Let all those whom it concerns (to judge) consider
it well and do justice herein. Thi3 Towne lies in the Sagga-
moreship or Eirldom of Agawam, Now by our English Nation
called Essex. It is a very good Haven Towne, yet a little barr'd
up at the mouth of the River. Some Merchants here are, (but
Boston being the chiefest place of resort of shipping,) carries
away all the Trade. They have very good Land for Husbandry
where rocks hinder not the course of the Plow. The Lord has
beene pleased to increase them in Corne and Cattle of late ; In-
somuch that they have many hundred quarters to spare yearly,
and feed, at the latter end of summer, the Towne of Boston with
good Beefe. Their Houses are many of them very faire built,
with pleasant Gardens and Orchards, consisting of about one
hundred and lorly Fj milies. Their meeting-house is a very
g lod prospect to a great part of the Towne, and beautifully
built ; the Church of Christ here consists of about one hundred
and sixty soules, being exact in their conversation and free
from the Epidemicall Disease of all Reforming Churches, which
under Christ is procured by their pious. Learned and Orthodox
Ministry.
Among the early settlers of Ipswich appear the names of
some noted families:
Hon. Col. John Appleton, born at Little Waldingfield, Eng-
land 158(3; settled at Ipswich, with his father, Samuel Apple-
ton in 1635 ; died aged 87 years.
Major Greneral Daniel I>6imisoii, Commander in chief
28 HISTORY OF THE ANDREWS FAMILY
of the Military forces of Mass. Bay Colony, settled at Ipswich,
1637; died Sept. 20, 1682.
Samuel Symonds, Barrister, born at Yieldhom, Essex, Eng-
land; settled at Ipswich, 1637; was a magistrate, representative
and deputy governor of the colony, 1673.
The ancestors of Ralph Waldo Emerson, and Gen. William
T. Sherman, are said to have been among the early settlers at
Ipswich. Thomas Emerson, settled there in 1638, and Cornelius
Waldo, in 1652.
Rev. Nathaniel Rogers, came from England, and settled at
Ipswich in 1636; died July 2, 1655; he was son of Rev. John
Rogers, of Dedham, England, who died Oct. 18, 1639, aged 67.
He is claimed to be the grandson of John Rogers, Prebendary
of St Paul's, Vicar of St Sepulchre's, and Reader of Divinity;
burned at Smithfield, England, Feb. 14, 1555. This Nathaniel
Rogers, had a son, John Rogers, President of Harvard College,
who died July 2 1684, aged 54. His son Rev. John Rogers, was
pastor of the first church, Ipswich, and died Dec. 28 1745, aged
80. Rev. Daniel Rogers, grandson of Nathaniel, died at Exe-
ter, N. H. Dec, 9, 1785. aged 78 years.
Sir Richard Saltonstall, who came from England with Gov.
Winthrop, in 1630, built his house in Ipswich, probably about
1635. In later years it was occupied by Col. Hodgkins, of
Revolutionary fame. It is said to be still standing near the
depot.
Gov. Thomas Dudley, resided at Ipswich, from soon after the
settlement, until 1()39.
AVilliam Clerk, was one of the twelve who came with Win-
throp and commenced the settlement at Ipswich, 1632-3.

Mr. Augustine Caldwell, antiquarian, of Ipswich, says that
Andrews is a more common name at Essex than at Ipswich;
Essex was the Chebacco parish of early Ipswich, — - and ])rob-
ably the Andrews farms were there. The old Andrews House
on Turkey shore, was not the original Andrews house; it was
built by Daniel Hovey, in 1068 ; and David Andrews was the
owner of it when he died, perhaps twenty years ago. It was in
the Andrews name only for a generation. The original An-
drews town house was an "ordinary, " (an inn.)
From an Essex newspaper the following items are clipped:
GOOD GBIT. — On Wednesday afternoon, as Mr. William An-
drews was in the woods a mile from any house, getting timber,
a large stick fell on to his right leg, breaking both bones be-
tween the knee and ankle. He called for help but no one came
and he splintered up his leg, cut two crutches and hobbled out
to the house of Mr. Henry Andrews, when he was taken home.
The dwelling house and about quarter of an acre of land sit-
uated on milk street, the homesthad estate of the late Almira
Andrews, was sold at auction on monday afternoon. E. B. An-
drews was the purchaser. This shows that the name is still
familiar within the limits of old Ipswich.
LOVELL.
The town of Lovell, in Oxford county, Maine, was the home
of Captain Abraham Andrews, Captain Samuel E. Andrews,
and many of their numerous descendants. It will not interest
other branches of the family so much, but is briefly noticed
here as the one spot upon which we look back as Home ; the
scene of youthful recollections, the home of many early friends
who have been very dear through life ; where we were born and
reared to manhood.
Our relatives there embraced a wide acquaintance, including
the families of Andrews, Hamblen, Stearns, Kimball, Gordon,
Fry, Fickett, Barker, Heald, Keniston, Kilgore, Abbott, Dres-
ser, McDaniels. Russell, Pottle, and some others.
It was settled about 1788. After the Revolution Captain
Abraham Andrews, with his wife's uncle, John Stearns, then an
old man abtmt seventy years of age, and her brother, Benja-
min Stearns, came to Lovell and were the first settlers there;
others soon followed them, among whom were Animas McAlis-
ter, Stephen Dresser, Joshua Whiting, Oliver Whiting, Josiah
Heald and Samuel E. Andrews, a nephew of Captain Abraham.
These people all came from Massachusetts.
Their route seems to have been by way of Concord, N. H.
From that point there was a rude bridle path across the coun-
try through the woods south of the White mountains, made by
Stark and his followers, probably, to Fryeburg, on the Saco
River, a distance of eighty miles; which place was settled
32 HISTORY OF TUK ANDRKWS FAMILY
about 17(^)3; also by settlers from Massachusetts. The distance
from there to the central part of Lovell, where the settlement
was made, was something better than a dozen miles, about fif-
teen miles to the spot located by Captain Abraham. Fryeburg
and Lovell have always been adjoining towns. The term town
must be understood by western people as meaning a township
and not a village.
There is a large body of water running nearly, if not quite,
through the whole length of Lovell from north to south, ten
miles or more in length, called Kezar pond, extending nearly
to the Saco river, which in its meanderings in the town of Frye-
burg traverses nearly forty miles. These waterways must have
greatly facilitated travel for the new settlers through an un-
broken forest, in summer easily navigated by boats and rafts;
the smooth surface of the ice in winter aiforded an excellent
highway, as many a boy of my time can testify who has tried
it on his skates.
Samuel E. Andrews did not come by the Concord route, but
from the south, by way of Buxton; perhaps may have been at-
tracted there from the fact that his father's uncle, Jonathan
Andrews, had settled at Scarboro fifty years before, where there
was quite a numerous family of relatives.
The attraction for settlement at Lovell was the free lands of-
fered to new settlers. Captain Abraham obtained one of the
free lots of one hundred acres on the side of Sebatos mountain
and there made his home; the same place where Charles G.
Andrews resided until within a few years since.
Benjamin Stearns at first occupied the adjoining land, where
Joseph Smith now lives, and boarded with his brother-in-law
Andrews. Afterwards he moved to the hill south of Lovell
Center, sometimes called Dea. Steam's Hill, and made a farm
there, occupied afterwards for many years by his son of the
same name, better known as Deacon Stearns, noted for his pure
life, eminent faith, piety and active interest in religious mat-
ters. He died at his post of duty in the meeting house about
1872.
LOVELL 83
John Stearns, the nncle, settled at Lovell Center and made
the farm afterwards occupied by his son David for many years,
where James Evans now resides.
Sebatos mountain was named in honor of an indian of that
name who served as a guide for Arnold's expedition to Quebec
in 1775; by whom I am not advised. As Capt. Abraham An-
drews and Samuel E. Andrews, then a lieutenant in Captain
Hutchins' company, were both in the expedition, they may have
known the indian and perhaps named the mountain for him in
recognition of his services on that occasion. There is a tradi-
tion that this indian once killed a wildcat, or catamount, as they
are called in that vicinity, on this mountain before the settle-
ment by the white people there.
It is said that the new settlers started from Fryeburg on a
prospecting tour and that the first " Massachusetts Soil " dis-
covered was in Lovell, meaning that the soil in Lovell resem-
bled that in Massachusetts.
Isaac S. Andrews, commonly called " Uncle Isaac," related
some facts which throw a few rays of light upon the early life
of the new settlers; concerning his father, Captain Abraham,
he said that he worked on his lot in summer clearing up fields
for cultivation. — Our people in the west will have to be told
that this meant the hewing down of an immense growth of for-
est trees and burning the wood, occupying many days to clear
otf even an acre of ground. The land when cleared of trees
was little better than a bed of stones. On such land the set-
tlers were enabled to raise small crops of corn, rye, oats, some-
times a little wheat, flax for linen, etc., peas, beans, pumpkins,
potatoes and vegetables. It produces very good grass and hay.
In winter Captain Andrews worked for a man named Evans,
in Fryeburg, cutting and hauling pine lumber into Saco river to
be rafted down to the older settlements near the sea. He worked
there during the week and on Saturday evening after the work
was finished would take a load of provisions and supplies for
the family on his back and travel down the river to Kezar pond,
then up the pond on the ice to the mill brook on the east side,
34 HISTORY OF 'I'HK AiNDHKWS FAMILY
then up the brook by a path through the deep snow two miles
further to his cabin at Sebatos. arriving there at midnight or
Later. After a few hours rest he worked ]>art of the day on
Sunday preparing fuel and attending to other necessary work
for the comfort and support of the family during another week,
and at night retraced his steps to Fryeburg, fifteen miles, in
time to resume his labors on Monday morning. Such was the
manner in which a hero of the Revolution was left by his coun-
try to support himself and rear a young family, after sj)ending
almost his entire fortune and seven of the best years of his life
in active campaigns to maintain the independence of his
country.
The settlers of Lovell were poor and relied entirely on their
own exertions for support. It must have been a struggle for
existence to wring their support from such surroundings. They
must have possessed a moral courage of an exalted kind to
cling to such methods of living. On one occasion food became
so scarce they were obliged to dig up and eat the potatoes plant-
ed for seed until a supply of food could be obtained.
Before the Revolution Captain Andrews owned a farm in
Massachusetts and was in prosperous circumstances. At the
close of the war these had nearly all gone and his possessions
consisted in Continental money. He told of paying twenty-five
dollars for his breakfast at that time in such money; and of
giving about twelve hundred dollars of the same kind for a
heifer. No doubt his wife, Esther Stearns, came to her death
from hardships and privations to which she was not inured in
that new country ; in her efforts to rear her family. She had
been well ra ised. The people of Massachusetts, before the Rev-
olution, had become prosperous and had comfortable homes. It
was a terrible change to leave such a home and go down to a
howling wilderness ; such as the back woods of Maine then pre-
sented. She was a soldier's wife and followed where duty lead.
This was not an isolated instance. What was true of
Captain Abraham Andrews and his family was equally true
of other settlers of Lovell contemporaneous with him. We
LOVELL 35
have much to admire in the fortitude, heroism and patriotism
of our ancestors. Those days of hardships have long since past,
and Lovell has since been the happy homes of nearly four gen-
erations of prosperous people.
'' Their bones are dust,
" Their swords are rust."
It would be absurd for one who has visited the place but

history of the place, to those who have resided there during
that period.
(3ur maternal uncle, Winfield S. Hamblen, who was born in
Lovell, but since about the year 1859 a resident of the state of
Pennsylvania, thus describes the home at Lovell:
I regret that no one has attempted a pen picture of the old
homestead; (of his father) we all do love it so well, as for my-
self, I never think of our old home without an instinctive desire
to raise my hat in token of respect for it. It is a sort of sacred
presence which hushes the voice, — you may not remember as
well as I do that beautiful natural meadow, which lay to the east
of the old home ; it was bordered around with trees of delight-
ful variety ; a fine trout brook, well stocked with fish, wound
its way through its midst, with waving grass on either bank ;
on the north was the large mill brook, of which you spoke,
flowing into the .finest of all little lakes, " Kezar Pond," that
lay at the west of the farm. During the time I lived there, ex-
cept in the winter, scarcely a day passed that I did not look up-
on that little lake which mirrored its beautifiil borders that
rise high above its surface. I used to run the risk of break-
ing the Sabbath, in a Puritanic way, that I might behold it.
The farm itself lay upon a cone about three hundred feet in
height, to the west, and slightly to the north lay the pond,
about a mile wide ; north and west like the section of an amphi-
theatre were the foot hills of the White mountains, the smaller
feet being bathed in its very waters. In form like rows those
ranges of hills raised higher and higher, until we called them
mountains, which still continued to rise until they break in

GENEALOGY.
Rev. Alfred Andrews, author of the Andrews Memorial, treat-
ing of the Connecticut branch of the family, descended from
John and Mary Andrews, of Farmington; gives a good idea of
the vast amount of labor and the great difficulties attending the
labors of the antiquary, in the compilation of a work of this
kind. His description of the general character of his kindred
is a good picture. Much of what he says will apply with equal
force to this work.
He says: The purpose and object of the following pages is
to give a brief genealogical history of John Andrews and his
wife, Mary; the settlers in Connecticut, KUO, and their de-
scendants. An attempt has been made in these pages to give
an account of the birth, parentage, occupation and location, of
each of the sons and daughters of these Puritan pioneers, and
early settlers in this country. It seems to be j) roper just here
to say that this object has been accomplished, with more or less ac-
curacy and fullness, in exact proportion to the record found, or
facts furnished. Every available means have been used; private
diaries, the old family bible, school and ecclesiastical society
records, church and town records, probate, court and war rec-
ords, state archives, private burying grounds and public ceme-
teries, printed genealogies and family memorials, and last, but
not least, letters correspondence directly with the families of
the name, to the number of 2,000 received and a far greater
number written, to which no response was ever made.
38 HISTORY OF TIIK ANDRKWS FAMILV
The public records clowu to the war of the Revohitioii, 1775,
were to some good degree and extent, ke[)t in good order, con-
sidering the newness of the country ; biit at the breaking out
of that war, ahnost everything of the nature was abandoned,
both in families and public, except, perhaps, the Prol)ate court
and a very few churches ; then immediately siicceeding the war
was a wonderful spirit of emigration among the survivors, and
families removed everywhere, very like the dispersion of the
Jews of old — for they forsook fatlun-. mother, brothers and sis-
ters, houses and lands, for the frontiers and border settlements;
bidding farewell to all family coiuiections, genealogies and me-
morials; their strong arms were exclusively occupied in clear-
ing the new farm and building the log lumse; — not even time
or material to furnish a headstone to the grave when one of
their number died. In the new country every energy was taxed
for a subsistence, hence the great, and in many instances, in-
surmountable difficulties in finding the descendants of these
enterprising emigrants.
I acknowledge, however, my obligaticuis to many genealo-
gists, and profess a strong desire to gratify and aid <d] studious
antiquaries in their researches after facts, dates and history. I
honor this class of men and women, yea, more, I reverence them
as gifted and inspired of God in an important sense, for it only
falls to the lot of a few to iidierit the taste, patience or skill, to
gather materials and collate them into a genealogy ; while doing
it they are almost sure of incurring the ridicule of the tlu^uglit-
less and gay, as well of the contempt of the avaricicms and
money making jiortion of community. It is only succeeding
generations that will duly appreciate their labors, or honor
their gi.ives. Very few of all the thousands of names which
a])pear in the following pages, ever apj)eared before in history;
for the most part they are persons unknown to fame, hence the
task of writing a sketch, even a ])rief one, has been found quite
a different thing from merely transcribing what, from an index,
may be already found in print; not that our family are en-
tirely unknown to fame ; far am I from a disposition to under-
value the progenitor or his descendants; I am proud of both.
(lENEALOUY 39
In morals, (listinj^nuHlied for pioty, patronism, honesty, indus-
try and frugality; their natural traits and gifts; common height,
moderately high cheek bones, and ruddy countenances, inclined
to be thick set, of quick step, with sanguine temperament, strong
passions, but generous impulses, light, clear complexion, tena-
cious of life and hopeful, extremely fond of frontier life and
always ready to enlist in defense of country, restless under re-
straint, of ready wit, fond of domestic life, very prolific, of good
common sense, or when sudden emergencies arise, have expedi-
ents ready.
The males are mostly farmers or mechanics, generally well
to do in the world; the females have been found equal to their
brothers and have formed alliances quite as honorable and satis-
factory. Very few of the descendants of John and Mary
Andrews are, or have been found in deep poverty or ignorance.
Of several thousand with whom I have corresponded, a fair
hand, and sensible expressions have almost invariably appeared,
while many have evinced intellectual tastes and capacities which
would grace any position in life. And this is found true of both
sexes alike.
EXPLANA TION.
In the genealogy the families are arranged in the order of
each generation.
The name of the head of a family is given in full, followed
by the Christian name, only, of the children, to avoid rei)etition
of the surname.
The names are consecutively numbered; some names appear-
ing twice; first as a citild, second as flic head of a fain ill/. In
such cases, when the name appears the second time, as the head
of a family, it is followed by the number, in brackets, given the
first time.
To find the line of ancestors, take any given name and trace
the line backwards by the numbers as above indicated; also,
following the name of the head of a family, the line of ances-
tors is given in italics, with the ex[)onent nund)er of the gener-
ation attached, in parenthesis, thus:

FIRST GENERATION.
1. ROBEET ANDREWS," came from England, and settled
at Ipswich, early in the year 1(335.
The Andrews Memorial states: that Capt. Andrews, came
from Norwich, Norfolk County, England, early in 1()35, as own-
er and master of ship '' Angel Gabriel." Richard Mather, iii his
narrative of his voyage in the James says, they came in compa-
ny part of the way, and that many Godly people were on board
the shi]).
This Ca})t. Andrews had a sister Mary, who was the wife of
Robert Biirnham.* Their 3 boys. John. Thomas and Robert,
it is said, were pnt in chfirge of their uncle Andrews, master of
the shij) '' Angel Gal)riel.'' which was cast away at Tamma(piid,
in Maine, in a terril)le storm, lo An<^. l()3r). after which loss,
C'Upt. Andrews settlcHl witli his '.\ nephews at ('hebacco, in Mas-
sachusetts 13a}'.
In a book entitled "Ancient Pemaquid," by J. W. Thornton.
lcS57, it says: On the last Wednesday of May in this year
(1635), the "Angel Gabriel," a strong ship of 240 tons, and
carrying a heavy armament of K) guns swung at her moorings
in the Kinjj's Road, four or five miles distant from the cit^-.
Her destination was Pemaquid. On her deck was a company of
many Godly CJhristians, some from other shi])S, bound for New
England; one of them was Richard Mather, visited there by Sir
Ferdinando Georges, but the chief personage in the company

was John Cogswell, a London merchant of wealth who with the
fragments of his fi'eight, and accompanied by his servants, set-
tled at I[)swich.
The ship in the fury of an easterly storm with her cargo were
totally lost; some of the passengers not esca})ing death. This
shipwreck is chronicled as one of the greatest disasters in the
annals of Pemaquid.
An old Pemaquid seal is given in the book as shown in the
accompanying engraving.

Accomjianying the cut of the seal in the book is this note:
" The Gabriel,'' a little bark, was one of Frobisher's discov-
ery shi})s engaged in no less than three of his expeditions, the
voyages of 1570-7-'88, and was, it may be supposed a favorite
vessel with him. That ship may be taken as a representative
of the naval architecture of that time, which was not essentially
modified even down to the days of her namesake, the ''Andrei
Gabriel," oi Pemacjuid memory. Fortunately the contemporary
accounts of Frobisher's voyages, furnish hints for a general
description of this pioneer ship in the missicm of Christian civ-
ilization to the new world; she was about thirty tons burdtai.
Sir Ferdinando Gorges, wns a patentee of the lands about
Saco and Portland, Maine.
John Cogswell, mentioned, settled at Ipswich, and had lands
granted him there as appears from the records : under date of
1()85, is this entry:
FIRST r.ENERATION 48
Granted to Mr. John Ooggswell three hundred acres of hind at
the further Chebacco, hauing the River on the southeast, the
land of Will'" White on y'" Northwest & a Creek Coming out of
the Riuer towards will'" whites farme on the northeast. Bound-
«
ed also on the west with a creeke & a little brooke. Also there
was granted to him a percell of ground containing eight acres,
vpon part whereof the said John Coggswell hath Built an house,
it being in }" corner lott in Bridge 8treete and has goodman
Bradstreete houselott on y" s. e.
The was also granted to him six acres of Ground late mr.
John Spencers, Butting vjion the river on the south east haue-
ing a lott of Edmund Gardners on the north east & a lott of
Edmund Saywords on the south west well six acres of ground
the sd John Coggswell hath sold to John Perkins the younger
his heirs and assigns.
The fact that he was designated "Mr." at that date, and the
considerable amount of land granted him indicate that he was
a man of good social standing in society.
The records of about that date further show that Cornelius
Waldo was Mr. CoggswelFs farmer.
The name of Robert Andrews does not ap})ear among those
who went to Aggawam in 1(]33 ; but it does appear frequently
in the public records after that date.
He was " made free () May 1()35."
And " 3 8ept 1035 Robf Andrews licensed to keep ordinarye
(an inn) in the plantacon where he lyves during the pleasure
of y"' court." This is the earliest reference to a public house in
the records of Ipswich.
Hammatt says that he possessed a houselot on the south side
of the river in 1<)35,
It is stated in the antiquarian papers that Robert Andrews
lived near the South Church.
We find his name several times in the records of grants of
lands. Aprill 20, 1(535. Thomas Firman was granted one hun-
dred acres of land, l)eyond Chebacco Creeke having Robert An-

drewes land on the north west and a great l)are hill on the
south west.
Same date; John Perkins Jim"^ was granted a house lott con-
taining an acre lying by the river, hauing Thomas Hardyes &
Robert Andrewes house lotts on the south west side.
Same date; Granted to John Cross likewise five and Twenty
acres in the North Side the Towne haueini^ the land of Thomas
Dudley Es(pi' on the North, and Robert Andrews toward the
South,
Richard Hoffield had a house lott lliHo beyond Mr. Hub-
bards having the highway to Ohebacco on the South and an
house lott of Robert Andrews on the east.
In 1(>8(); Thomas Hardy had a house lot near the river ad-
joining Robert Andrews and Thomas Howlett.
In 1G85 ; Robert Andrews is allowed the sell wine by retail,
"if he do not wittingly sell to such as abuse it by drunkenness.'"'
1040 May 13 Robert Andros is granted to draw wine at Ips-
witcli, with the conditions of the towne.
We see from this that our ancestors, at that early day, clearly
recognized the power to legislate, restraining the sale of intoxi-
cating liquors, as a police regulation.

ison to Humprey Griffin of a dwelling house &c near the mill.

40 HISTORY OF THE ANDREWS FAMILY
There are some discrepancies in the dates given in the fore-
going records, we present them as foun'd; taken together tliey
refer unmistakably to the same Robert Andrews.
His will, for so short a document, is bristling full of infor-
mation, always a pleasure and gratification to the antiquarian.
From the facts there stated, and so well corroborated in the
other records and authorities mentioned, we have been able to
fix with absolute certainty the identity of himself and his im-
mediate descendants.
It names his wife, Elizabeth, and his sons John and Thomas ;
and his grandchildren, Elizabeth Franklyn and Daniel Hovey ;
showing that he must have had daughters, naming their hus-
bands. By this means we are able to identify them in other
records and documents. We notice with pleasure his provision
for the education of his son Thomas, and shall see later that it
was turned to his advantage.
The fact that he mentions John, son of Hum})hrey Griffin,
as a legatee, strongly suggests that the legatee was a relative.
Humphrey Griffin died at Ipswich, 8ei)tember 1(), 1()()2, leav-
ing a widow, Elizabeth; his wife Joan died July 17, 11)57; pos-
sibly the first wife may have been a kinswoman to Robert An-
drews; a sister perhaps. He also mentions with certainty his
nephews, John, Thomas and Robert Bundiam.
Thomas Howlett, designated as the guardian of his son, John,
may have been related, yet he does not so state. Howlett was
one of the first settlers who went to Ipswich with Mr. Win-
throp, and his name is freqiieutly mentioned in the early rec-
ords, from which it appears that Andrews and Howlett resided
near each other at Ipswich.
Under the grants, 1()84, as taken oiit of " Y' Old Book,"
Given and Granted vnto Thomas Howlett two acres of meadow
and two acres & half of marsh adjoining vnto that, laying be-
tween the towne River & the laud of Will'" Sergaiits and John
Nowmane vnto him his heires or Assigns.
Also, same tlate: Giuen and Grnnted vnto Tlionias howlett
six acres of land more or less in e([u;i] share with John maji-
FIRST GENERATION 47
ning and others, lying vpon this neck the towne standeth, be-
tween the land of John Gadge on the one side and Thomas
Clark on the other, vnto his heires and Assigns.
And his name is also mentioned same date, in grants to John
Gadge and John Manning.
Hammatt mentions Kobert Andrews" of Ipswich, as probably
the son of our Robert'; he died about 1675; will dated De-
cember 6, 1()73, proved March 2(), l()7r); by it he directs that
his j)roperty be divided between his mother and his brothers
John and Joseph, and appoints his brother (in law) Samuel
Symonds, executor.
I am very positive that Hammatt was mistaken about the re-
lationship; indeed, the wills of these two men strongly indi-
cate that they were not related as father and son. I am rather
inclined to think that Robert" was the son of Robert and Grace
Andrews of Boxford.
We have been unable to ascertain tlie dates of birth, mar-
riage or death of Robert Andrews'.
His children, so far as positively known, and which are prob-
ably all, were

1683, and left a considerable personal projjerty to his relatives.
He seemed to have no children, and was probably never mar-
ried.
Hammatt further says: some of the founders and patrons
of this school may have had their Latin whij)ped into them by
John Milton; some of them may have heard William Shake-
speare "warble his native wood notes;" and some of them un-
doubtedly had looked on and wondered at the great anthesis,
Francis Bacon.

of John Ward of that place Dec. 28, 16)52, " Item my books, I

70 JONATHAN ANDREWS,'' | 47 ] ( Willidm,* John,' John,'
BoJ)cri.^) The history of Scarboro, Maine, says he
came from Ipswich, Massachusetts, in 1732, and that
none of the name preceded him there. That he proved
a valuable addition to the young settlement, which was
miich in need of just such men. Amos Ancb-ews is
mentioned there a little later and was an active citizen
in town and church affairs. It is thought he must have
been a son of this Jonathan, as the descendants of the
two families claim a connection. The history of Ips-
wich records the dismissal from Second church, in Ips-
wich, of Jonathan An(b-ews. and wife Sarah, to no to
Scarboro, and the church record at the latter place say
they were admitted to First C^ongregaticmal church there
February 2o, L733. The I[)swicli records contain the
entry of int. m. of Jonathan Andrews and Sarah Smith,
December 1(5, 17 IS. He was a blacksmith.

80 HISTORY OF THE ANDREWS FAMILY
75. SOLOMON ANDREWS/ [48] ( William; John; John;
Roheri;) Born at Ipswich, August 8, 101)9. Int. of m.
with Elizabeth Ingalls,* October 27, 172(3, both of Che-
bacco, in Ipswich, says the record.
Isaac S. Andrews' told the compiler of this work, about 1867,
that he had seen and was acquainted with his grandfather, Sol-
omon ; had visited him and his uncles. He said that his grand-
father was a farmer ; that the maiden name of his wife was Har-
per; perhaps he may have been mistaken in that respect; or
perhaps Solomon was twice married, and Harper may have been
the name of the second wife. It will be borne in mind that
Isaac S. Andrews was born and lived in Lovell, and never lived
in Massachusetts, yet he was a man of powerful memory. He
mentioned all of his uncles except Isaac, but said nothing par-
ticular about his uncle Solomon, who died in Massachusetts
nearly thirty years before his birth. He said his uncle Ammi
settled at Hillsboro, New Hampshire; his uncles Isaacher and
Nehemiah, at Billerica, Massachusetts ; that his uncle Stephen
was a sea captain and had a residence at Blue Hill, Maine, where
he died; and Edmund settled at Carlisle, Massachusetts, who
he represented as being a very eccentric person. I have been
unable to iSnd any will made by Solomon Andrews'^ or any account
of his estate, or of his death. Perhaps he may have died during
the troublesome times of the Revolution, and the records con-
cerning him neglected. He had at least three sons in the war.
His children were:
70. Solomon, b. September 0, 1727. '
77. Isaac, b. January 1>, 1729.
78. Elizabeth, b. April 21, 1732. Int. of m. with Joseph

His son, Isaac S. Andrews, in his lifetime spoke of his ser-
vice in the war; of him being at Lexington and with Arnold's
expedition to Quebec. It is supposed that he served several
terms of enlistment.
The Massachusetts archives show that more than one Abra-
ham Andrews served in that war.
Private Abraham Andrews in Captain Joshua Walker's com-
pany ; Colonel David Green's 2d Reg' Foot at Lexington, April
19, 1775.
Lieutenant Abraham Andrews served in Captain Joshua
AValker's company; Colonel Samuel Denny's Reg' from Octo-
ber 19, 1779, to November 23, 1779.

Adjutant Abraham Andrews '2d lleg' Militia, from Octol)er 19,
1779, to >:ovember 28, 17711,
The last two are the same, evidently, and in the oj)inion of
the writer refer to our Captain Abraham Andrews. There is a
discrepancy between the above and what he told his family
about his rank at Lexington. His son stated, positively, that
he held the rank of captain in the Revolution, and not from his
service in the Militia after the war. He was, however, the first
captain in the Militia in Lowell.
His Grandson, William G. Andrews, now living at Exira,
Audubon county. Iowa, recollects him and says he was a man
little less than six feet high, with light com[)lexion and blue
eyes.
Another Grandson, Hon. Abraham Andrews Barker, now
living at Ebensburg, Pennsylvania, writing of his grandfather
says: "Captain Abraham Andrews, for whom I was named,
lived, I think, in Billerica, as I have heard my mother talk so
much about the place, and owned a farm; but just where it was
— whether in Billerica or Concord —I cannot say. Mother told
me he sold it and took it in Continental money, which proved
worthless. Either mother or grandfather told me that when he
left the army he took his pay for his services in the same mon-
ey, and of course lost it all. That he paid twenty-five dollars
for a breakfast. I can remember grandfather and see just how
he looked, and remember somethings he told me; as he lived
and died at my father's. I have forgotten how old I was.
He died about 1828, which would make me about eight years
old; I can remember well the day he died. Either him or my
mother told me about him taking his gun and joining the men
when the British soldiers started for Concord, and also of him
being at Lexington and seeing the men that were killed and
carried into the town house, but whether he had moved to
Concord or still lived at Billerica I cannot say. After the war
he had quite a family and was very poor, having sunk all he
had in Continental money ; and as he could hardly live in Massa-
chusetts he, with others, went to M;iine, then a part of Massa-
86 HISTORY OF THE ANDREWS FAMILY
chusetts ; encouragement had been given, for cheaper lands,
and that they could raise good crops. Grandfather had one of
the free lots of land containing one hundred acres. I have
heard my mother tell all about it, and of their hardships.
Grandfather was about five feet ten inches tall, stout and heav-
ily built, having large heavy shoulders; I think William's
description of him is correct. He was a cooper and did consid-
erable in that way. I remember going into the shed where he
worked and he played the cooper's march for me, and sat down
and told me stories."
Another grandson living at Denver, Colorado, George W.
Andrews, Esip, writes thus of his ancestor: "As it may be of
interest I relate some facts that I heard, when I was about eight
years old. from my venerable grandfather, Abraham Andrews,
on one of his ainiual visits at my father's home in Fryeburg,
Maine. Grandfather's home, at that time, was in Lovell, Maine.
His narrative of the event was about as follows : He said Major
Pitcairn, a British officer, was sent out from Boston with five
hundred 'Red Coats,' as he called them, to destroy some Colo-
nial stores, some miles back of Lexington, which is about ten
miles north-west from Boston, near where my grandfather lived.
The news of the approach of the forces spread through the
country like wild fire. As they had to pass through Lexing-
ton— our Continental undisciplined soldiers hurriedly collected,
a little after sunrise, on the village green, at Lexington, only
about ninety in all, while Pitcairn was approaching with five
hundred disciplined red coats. When the head of the British
column reached the green Pitcarin's voice rang out in a com-
manding tone: 'Disperse, ye rebels! ' and ordered his men to
fire, which they did without halting. As soon as they had
passed on our men gathered up eight dead (Jolonists and car-
ried them into the meeting hoiise and laid tliein out on the seats,
where the blood ran across the fioor. This was the first blood
shed in the Revolutionary war. Pitcairn kept on his' way to
destroy the stores, but before reaching his place of destina-
tion, at about noon he halted at a tavern to rest and eat their
rations.
SIXl'll (JENERATION ,S 7
The commaiuliiii; officer aiul statF wi«liinij to fare better, went
into the Tavern, Pitcairn ordered the landlord to provide din-
ner for them. On his infonnini; him that he could not, as he
had not a single person besides himself about the house, he
knocked the landlord down and then ordered him to set on the
l)randy. Bv one o'clock i'. m. there had gathered on a rising
piece of ground not f;ir fi'om this tavern, about three thousand
Continentals all armccl, some with muskets, almost every kind
of a shot gun then kiKjwn, also axes and pitchforks, others with
clubs. Pitcairn seeing this great gathering so near gave up
his further march t(Mlestroy the stores, and beat a hasty retreat,
followed by the C*^ntinentals, more like a mob than regular sol-
diers. On all W(Mit back over the same road, through Lexing-
ton, the British red coats firing into the air as they ran. Grand-
father said he saM' many a twig fall from th(^ tree tops, cut
away by the bullets of the red coats. This retreat continiied
over the same villatje gfreen where the eiorht Colonists were kill-
ed in the morning, and for two or three miles on toward Bos-
ton, until Pitcairn met reinforcements from Boston with two
cannon ; then said grandfather, it was our turn to retreat, which
we did, as far as the village green, where we made a stand and
fought until night, when the British forces left for Boston. My
grandfather was lieutenant of his company, but as the captain
was absent, he had command of the company at the time; and
he told us, when the battle was at its height, a cannon ball
from the enemy came tearing thnnigh the cliuirh building near
where his company were fighting; and seeing one of his men
not using his gun as he should, took it from him and leveled it
on a red coat. This red coat fell! and soon another red coat
fell across the first one, and directly a third red coat fell across
the two, thus three red coats lay in one pile! At night the
battle ended as stated.
As we have shown elsewhere, he was one of the first settlers
of Lovell.
He married first, Esther, daughter of Hon. Isaac Stearns,*

he removed to a farm less than a mile east of Lovell Center,
where Granville Martin now lives. In lbl()5, after the death of
his last wife he removed, with the family of his son Jacob, to
Exira, Iowa, where he died; he was a man of remarkable mem-
ory and, up to the time of his death, was able to give events,
names and dates with marvelous accuracy. In Lovell he was
best known by the name of "Uncle Isaac," and will be remem-
bered by his peculiar manner of speech, which was very slow,
earnest and delivered in a sing-song tone. There are many
funny stories told of his droll wit and aptness in repartee ; the
first load of goods brought to Lovell for merchandise was
hauled by him from Portland for "Squire'' Stephen Heald, of
Lovell village; he had a glass decanter, a very useful vessel in
its time, brought in that load of goods, now in the possession

APPENDIX.
NOTK 1. BURN HAM.
We have seen elsewhere in this work that John, Thomas and
Robert Burnham, settled at Ipswich, Massachusetts, with their
uncle, Robert Andrews, in 1635 ; they were sons of his sister,
Mary, wife of Robert Burnham. The descendants of these men
appear to have been numerous, and we find the name in the
records of Iprwich, frequently, down to the time of the Revolu-
tionary period.
The Winthrop and Burnham house was built by John Win-
throp, Jr., in 1683. It was the home of his family, and the
birthplace of some of his children ; and to this home he brought
Elizabeth Reade Winthrop, his second bride. The Burnhams
possessed the house after the Winthrops migrated to Connecti-
cut, and for 200 years it was their homestead, always retaining
the name of " Governor's House.""
JOHN BURNHAM ' was a soldier in the war against the

NOTE 5- STEARNS.
A genealogy of the Stearns family has been compiled by Dr.
Solomon Sergent Stearns, of Washington, D. C, showing the
progenitors of the members of the Stearns family, mentioned in
this work. Captain Abraham Andrews," [117] married Esther
Stearns, daughter of Honorable Isaac Stearns, of Billerica,
Massachusetts. Several of the descendants of her brother,
Benjamin Stearns, and of her uncle, John Stearns, have inter-
married with this branch of the Andrews family. It will be of
interest to members of this branch of the family to have a con-
venient reference of the line of their ancestors, which is here
given :

MISCELLANEO CS.
This work has given .all the descendants of Robert Andrew's,'
of the name of Andrews, down to the fourth generation. Since
that period it has been impossible, up to this time, to obtain
and arrange all branches of the family in full, up to date; the
necessary information has not been obtainable. As others, in
the future, may desire to complete their family records, it is
thought best to preserve, at this time, such extracts from the
old records as will be of service for that purpose. A large mass
of information has been obtained from the records of Salem and
Ipswich, Massachusetts, which will be of value in completing
the Genealogy, but so mingled with the records of other fami-
lies, of the name, who were early settlers of that locality, that
the compilers has been unable to arrange them with certainty.
There were settlers at Ipswich, of the name of Andrews, oth-
er than Robert Andrews,' and his descendants, and it has been
a difficult task to identify them with certainty. That which
was very doubtful has been omitted from the Genealogy prop-
er. Some of the data to be hereafter given, no doubt, refers to
descendants of Robert Andrews,' and the search for further
information concerning the family history will be rewarded by
following out the information here given:
