PREFACE. 


Skveral  years  ago,  wishing  to  know  something  more 
of  his  ancestors  than  was  contained  in  the  records  left 
by  his  father,  the  compiler  of  this  book  began  making 
inquiries  among  his  immediate  relatives.  Encouraged  by 
his  success,  and  greatly  interested  in  the  early  history  of 
the  Hollister  family,  he  resolved  to  embrace  in  his  re- 
searches all  the  branches  of  the  family  in  America. 

A  correspondence  with  the  members  of  the  family 
was  begun  and  perseveringly  kept  up  until  it  reached  to 
nearly  every  part  of  the  United  States  and  even  beyond, 
and  requiring  several  thousand  letters.  Two  visits  to 
New  England  were  made  for  the  purpose  of  consulting 
the  ancient  town,  church,  and  probate  records,  and  in  this 
search  the  compiler  was  ably  assisted  by  Hon.  John  C. 
Hollister  of  New  Haven  and  Miss  Florence  J.  Hollister 
of  Glastonbury,  Conn.  The  extensive  collection  of  Wm. 
H.  Upton  of  Walla  Walla,  Wash.  Ter.,  was  placed  at  the 
author's  disposal,  as  also  those  of  Mrs.  Helen  P.  Bomeisler 
of  Elizabeth,  N.J.,  and  the  late  John  F.  Hollister  of  Piano, 
III.  Many  others  have  rendered  valuable  assistance,  and 
the  compiler  wishes  here  to  thank  all  who  have  in  any 
way  aided  him  in  the  great  task  of  collecting  and  arrang- 
ing for  publication  the  scattered  records  of  the  Hollister 
family. 


6  l»REFA(*K. 

It  is  not  pretended  that  the  work  is  complete;  proba- 
bly in  some  cases  it  is  not  correct,  but  the  compiler  has 
tried  to  make  it  as  nearly  so  as  possible.  He  would  be 
f^lad  to  be  informed  of  any  error  his  readers  may  discover. 

For  the  benefit  of  those  not  familiar  with  genealogical 
works,  the  following  explanation  is  given:  The  descend- 
ants of  Lieut.  John  Hollister  are  numbered  consecutively. 
When  an  account  of  their  families  or  other  information  is 
given,  their  number  is  preceded  by  the  mark  +,  and  the 
reader  will  look  in  the  next  generation,  under  the  same 
number,  which  is  used  as  a  family  number  and  enclosed 
in  parenthesis. 

Following  the  names  of  heads  of  families  is  a  line  in 
parenthesis  giving  the  names  of  all  the  ancestors  back  to 
Lieut.  John.  The  small  figure  at  the  right  indicating 
the  generation. 

The  marriage-name  of  female  descendants  is  given  in 
parenthesis,  after  the  family  name. 

These  consecutive  and  family  numbers  enable  the 
reader,  by  referring  forward  or  backward,  to  find  the 
names  of  the  descendants  or  ancestors  of  anv  member 
of  the  family.

THE 


HOLLISTER   FAMILY. 


THE  ENGLISH  HOLLISTERS. 

Contributed  by  Wm.  H.  Upton,  A.M..  Walla  Walla,  Washington  Territ'y. 


The  Name  Hollister. 

The  origin  of  the  Hollister  family  and  name  is  lost  in 
the  mists  of  antiquity.  We  do  not  feel  competent  to 
discuss  the  origin  of  the  name  exhaustively,  and  therefore 
we  shall  at'  present  content  ourselves  with  saying  that  we 
are  not  satisfied  with  any  explanation  of  the  origin  and 
meaning  of  the  name  that  has  yet  been  offered.  Most  of 
these  explanations  are  puerile  in  the  extreme.  The  only 
one  we  know  of  that  seems  worthy  of  notice  at  all  is  that 
which  draws  the  name  from  the  words  Holly  and  Terra, 
i.  €,,  a  land  where  the  holly  tree  abounds,  "namely  Somer- 
setshire, England,  where  there  is  a  place  called  Hollister." 

In  answer  to  this  we  may  say,  first,  that  the  only  variety 
of  true  holly  existing  in  Europe,  the  Ilex  Aqtiifolium 
{Saxon,  liolen  or  Iwlegn;  Mid.  Eng.,  holyn — whence  the 
word  "holm,"  which  has  given  a  termination  to  so  many 
English  local  names — old  French,  houx;  French,  houlx), 
flourishes  in  every  corner  of  England  and  throughout 
Western  and  Southern  Europe,*  as  well  as  in  Somerset- 
shire. In  the  second  place,  a  word  compounded  of  the 
English  "Holly"  (or  Sax.  holcgn)  and  the  Latin  "Terra" 
(or  its  Norman  equivalent)  would  be  a  hybrid  that  would 
disgrace  the  word-makers  of  any  age.f     The  Saxon  name 

*  "Encyc.  Britannica.** 

t  Of  course  we  are  aware  that  the  rule  that  a  compound  word  should  not 
be  formed  from  roots  taken  from  different  languages  has  been  violated  in 
every  age. 


lO  THE   HO  LUSTER   FAMILY. 

for  "a  place  where  holly  abounds,"  would 'be  compoundecl 
of  the  roots  liolcgii  (holly)  and  land  (land),  or  card,  earthy 
ox yrth  (earth);  and  a  fourteenth-century  writer  translating 
such  a  name  into  the  Latin*  of  his  time,  would  have  called 
it  Ilexterra  or  Terra  ilicia,  not  Holly  terra  or  Hollister. 

In  this  connection,  we  do  not  think  the  word  Holy  (Sax. 
halig)  should  be  overlooked,  especially  when  it  is  remem- 
bered that  our  family  name  was  frequently  written 
"Holester""f*  in  the  early  records,  or  the  word  Star  (Sax. 
stcorra),  or  the  common  affix — stcr.  The  latter  (seen  in 
vnimstcf',  spinj/^r,  etc.)  is  the  Saxon  stcora,  a  director,, 
from  the  verb  stcoran,  to  steer,  guide,  chide,  discipline, — 
German,  steuern.  If  Holy  star  (halig-steorra)  be  rejected,, 
we  have  Holy  guide  (halig-stcora)  and  Master  of  the 
Holly  (holegU'Stcora), 

It  may  be  added  that  the  English  word  Holster  (Sax. 
heolster,  a  hiding-place  or  recess)  most  nearly  corresponds 
to  Hollister  (Holester).  Whether  we  take  this  word  in  its 
English  or  its  Saxon  meaning,  instances  are  found  of 'sur- 
names of  similar  derivation,  viz,:  Burnet  and  Burrell  (bur- 
nette  and  borel,  kinds  of  cloth),  Blanchet,  Plunket,  and 
Blanket  (the  same),  Mantel,  Gauntlctt,  Pike,  and  Stirrup, 
on  the  one  hand,  and  Brook,  Ogden  (a  secluded  place  for 
hogs),  Leigh  and  Hartley,  Clive  and  Clough  (a  canyon), 
on  the  other.  John  de  Holester  may  have  been  John  of 
the  hiding-place,  or  John  of  the  cavern. 

We  may  note  here  the  derivation  that  has  been  assigned 
to  names  of  apparently  similar  root,  viz.: 

Holland  (country)  is  Holtland,  /.  r.,  woodland. 

Holland  (surname),  derived  from  the  local  name. 

Holliday  is  holy  day. 

HoUier  and  Holleyman,  a  dweller  near  or  among  holly 
trees. 

*  It  is  probable  that  by  ilex  the  Romans  meant  the  holm  oak  (quercus 
ilex),  not  the  holly.  See  Pliny's  N.  H.  passim.  Martial  14,  70,  Virgil,  Ec. 
7,  I,  and  Aen.  passim, 

t  Also  Holbster  and  Hollist<;r.  In  the  parish  register  of  Stinchcombe  it 
ivas  always  Hollisttn'. 


THE  NAME   HOLLISTER.  II 

Holman  and  Holmes,  from  "holm." 

Holroyd,  a  holly  clearing. 

Hole,  Holliday  (Halyday,  a  place  in  Normandy);  Holle- 
bone  {alias  AUebone),  Hollings,  HoUis,  Hollot  {alias  Halot), 
Holley  {alias  Olley,  alias  Olie),  Hollyer  {alias  Huielor  or 
Hoielor),  Holman  and  Hollyman(a//Wj  Allemagne),  Holmes 
and  Holm  (though  not  exclusively),  Holsey  {alias  Halsey, 
alias  Alsey)  have  all  been  claimed*  as  of  Norman  origin. 

But  as  stated  above,  we  leave  it  to  others  to  trace  the 
origin  of  the  name,  merely  entering  our  protest  against 
jumping  at  conclusions. 


Homes  of  English  Hollisters. 

John  HoUister,  the  emigrant  to  America,  is  known  to 
have  been  an  Englishman,"!*  and  the  Hollisters,  if  indeed 
they  are  not  of  Anglo-SaxonJ  stock,  were  long  settled  in 
England.  We  do  not  know  that  they  were  confined  to 
any  particular  part  of  the  kingdom,  but  most  of  the  Eng- 
lish Hollisters  of  whom  we  have  any  knowledge  lived  ia 
Gloucestershire,  Somersetshire,  or  Wiltshire.§ 

The  earliest  mention  we  have  found  of  the  name  is  in< 

•  By  the  anonymous  author  of  "The  Norman  People  and  their  Descend- 
ants"  (London,   1874),  a   plausible   writer,  but   one  whom   we   frequently- 
hesitate  to  follow. 

t  The  late  Hon.  Gideon  11.  Ilollister  of  Litchfield,  Conn.,  collected  a. 
number  of  very  valuable  manuscript  accounts  of  the  English  Hollisters.  In 
1880  he  permitted  Wm.  H.  Upton  to  take  a  copy  of  his  papers.  From 
these  MSS.  and  Mr.  Upton's  own  collections  most  of  the  following  account 
of  the  English  Hollisters  is  taken. 

X  We  have  been  told,  by  a  Dutch  gentleman,  that  the  name  is  not  un- 
common  in  Holland.  If  this  be  so,  it  proves  nothing.  The  Pilgrim  fathers 
were  not  the  only  Englishmen  who  found  refuge  in  Holland.  If  one  English 
HoUister  found  his  way  thither  in  the  sixteenth  or  seventeenth  century  as 
many  of  his  descendants  may  be  living  there  as  there  are  Hollisters  in. 
America. 

§  John  HoUister  of  Chicago,  the  only  Englishman  of  the  name  I  have  r 
found  in  America,  says  his  ancestors  have  been  landholders  in  Hampshire,. 
England,  for  many  generations. — L.  W.  C.

THE   HOLLISTER   FAMILY. 


the  sixth  year  of  Queen  Elizabeth  (i.  c,  between  Nov.  17, 
1563,  and  Nov.  17,  1564),  when  Henry,  Lord  Berkeley, 
sold  the  fourth  part  of  his  manor  of  Almondsbury,  Glou- 
cestershire, to  John  Hollister  and  others.*  The  earliest 
HoUister  will  of  which  we  have  an  abstract  is  that  of 
John  **of  Bristol,  merchant,"  dated  July  29,  1575.  The 
parish  register  of  Stinchcombe,  Glou.,  begins  in  1583,  and 
in  1584  it  records  the  marriage  of  one  Hollister  and  the 
burial  of  another. 

We  have  some  account  of  Hollist^rs  living  at  the  follow-

HOMES  OF  ENGLISH   HOLLISTERS.  1 3 

Coulston,  Wiltshire,     -         -         -         -  1622. 

Wooton  Basset,  .1  -      **Temp.  Car.  I."  to  1677. 

At  many  of  these  places  there  were  persons  bearing  the 
name  John  Hollister,  contemporaneous  with  our  emigrant 
of  that  name. 

The  late  Hon.  Gideon  H.  Hollister  told  the  writer  that 
he  once  possessed  a  pedigree  which  traced  the  ancestry  of 
John  the  Emigrant  back  several  generations.  The  pedi- 
gree had  been  lost,  and  he  could  not  remember  where  he 
got  it.  He  always  disclaimed  the  possession  of  sufficient 
genealogical  training  to  enable  him  to  speak  authorita- 
tively on  such  subjects,  but  he  was  satisfied  that  the 
pedigree  was  genuine.  He  firmly  believed  that  he  was 
descended  from  John  Hollister  who  purchased  the  manor 
of  Stinchcombe,*  Glou.,  April  24,  1608,  and  we  therefore 
think  it  well  to  give  some  account  of  that  family. 


HOLLISTERS  OF   STINCHCOMBE,   GLOUCESTERSHIRE. 

In  order  to  make  clear  our  account  of  these  HoUisters, 
the  following  items  from  various  sources  must  be  noted,  7'/^..* 

A.  "Sir  Robert  Lovett,  by  deed  dated  24,  April,  5 
James,"f*  sold  the  manors  of  Stinchcombe  and  Bradstone 
to  John  Hollister,  who  died  seized,  ifUer  alia,  of  the  manor 
of  Stinchcombe,  held  of  Lord  Berkeley  as  of  his  manor  of 
Berkeley,  two  s.  rent,  suit  of  court,  &c.  Roger  Hollister's 
son  and  heir:J  John,  son  of  this  Roger,  resold  to  Samuel 

*  Besides  Stinchcombe,  other  places  have  been  named  as  the  English  home 
of  our  emigrant  ancestor,  viz.:  "Bristol,**  "Glastonbury,  Somersetshire,'* 
"Somersetshire,"  and  "Braintree,  Essex.*'  The  latter  merely  because  Rev. 
T.  Hooker's  Hartford  Colony  was  from  that  pla^e. 

t  1608.  James  H.  came  to  the  throne  March  24,  1603.  The  year  1604 
(O.  S.)  began  the  next  day.  The  first  April  of  his  reign  was  therefore 
in  1604. 

*  The  writer,  not  having  access  to  Fosbrooke,  has  had  this  passage  copied 
twice  in  a  vain  attempt  to  understand  this  phrase.  Was  the  purchaser  a 
son  of  Roger,  or  was  the  manor  held  by  three  successive  Hollistcrs,  viz.: 
[ohn,  Roger,  and  John?

Pinfold." — Fosbrooke's  "History  of  Gloucester,"  1807,  Vol. 
I.,  p.  446. 

B.  Letters  of  administration  of  the  estate  of  Roger 
Hollister  of  Stinchcombe  were  granted  his  widow  Mar>\ 
Sept.  2,  1 61 6. 

C.  The  will  of  Agnes  Hollister  of  Stinchcombe,  widpw, 
dated  Jan.  24,  1621,  proved  May  16,  1622,  mentions  a  son

HOLLISTERS   OF   STINCHCOMBE.  IS 

We  think  the  Hollisters  of  Stinchcombe  may  be  sepa- 
rated into  three  generations.  In  the  first  belong  Roger, 
John  (and  his  wife  Agnes),  and  Thomas.  In  the  second 
generation  was  Roger,  and  in  the  third,  John  and  Roger, 
thus: 

FmST  GENERA  TION. 

1.  Roger'  Hollister  of  Stinchcombe,  Esq.  He  is  men- 
tioned in  the  will  of  Richard  Tyndall  of  Stinchcombe  in 

1577,  and  was  living  in  1591.     He  is  probably  the  Roger 

who  was  dead  Sept.  2,  1616,  leaving  a  widow  Mary  (see 

j5,  p.  14,  ante).     He  was  probably  father  of: 

* 

2.  Joane?  buried  Feb.  23,  1584,  and 

3.  Dalgonia?  who  married  Wm.  Smith,  May  3,  1584. 

We  do  not  take  him  to  be  the  Roger  whose  father 
bought  and  whose  son  sold  Stinchcombe  (see  -^,  p.  13,  ante)^ 
for,  according  to  the  date  of  his  daughter's  marriage,  he 
could  not  have  been  born  much  after  1540,  in  which  case 
his  father  must  have  been  nearly  ninety  years  of  age  at 
the  time  the  manor  w^  purchased.  Nor  do  we  believe 
him  to  have  been  the  father  of  John,  born  1609,  or  of 
Maryan,  born  1616,  for  in  the  latter  year  he  must  have 
been  over  seventy  years  of  age. 

4.  John'  Hollister^  whose  wife  Maryan  was  buried 
Aug.  5,  1585.  We  suppose  this  to  be  the  John  Hollister 
who  bought  the  manors  of  Stinchcombe  and  Bradstone  in 
1608  (see  A^  p.  13).  Query:  was  his  father's  name  Roger .^ 
^See  third  note,  p.  13)  in  which  case  he  must  have  had  a 
son,  viz.: 

+  5.     Roger?  (see  Ay  p.  13). 

Probably  this  John  had  a  second  wife  Agnes,  who  was 
a  widow  in  1621,  and  made  a  will  (C,  page  14).  By  his  wife 
Agnes  he  seems  to  have  had  the  five  children  following, 
unless  Joan,  Margaret,  and  Ann  were  by  her  other  hus- 
band, viz.: 


l6  THE   HOLLISTER   FAMILY. 

6.  Winifredf  m.  William  Trotman,  Dec.  28,  1667. 

7.  Margaret'  Parnell. 

8.  Elizabethf  probably  baptized  1590  (see  page  14); 

m.,  Dec.  26,  1614,  John  Trotman. 

9.  Joan'  Prichard. 

10.  Ann'  Thomas. 

11.  Thomas'  HoUister,  whose  wife  Elizabeth  was- 
buried  Dec.  10,  1586,  had  the  following  children,  vis,: 

12.  Catherine^  baptized  June  12,  1588. 

13.  Williamf  buried  May  7,  1587. 

14.  Mary?  buried  Oct.  25,  1587. 

SECOND  GENERATION. 

5.  Roger  Hollister,  whom  we  take  to  be  the  Roger 
mentioned  at  ^,  p.  13,  ante,  and  son  of  John,  No.  4,  of  the 
First  Generation,  married,  Dec.  28,  1607,  Alice  Fisher,  and 
had  at  least  two  children,  viz,: 

+  15.     John?  baptized  Oct.  29,  1609. 

16.  Mary  an?  baptized  July  20,  161 6,  which  would  make 

her  rather  ancient  to  be  the  Marian  who  married 
Richard  Atwood,  Dec.  2,  1658. 

THIRD  GENERATION, 

15.  Johns  HoUister  had  children,  according  to  the 
Register,  as  follows: 

17.  Mary*  baptized  May  2,  1640. 

18.  Hannah*  baptized  March  2,  1642. 

We  suppose  this  to  have  been  the  John  who  sold 
Stinchcombe  some  time  before  1649, — probably  some 
years  before  that  (see  A,  page  13,  ante).  Whether  he  went 
to  the  colonies  or  was  the  John  who  was  buried  at  Stinch- 
combe, March  4,  1642,  is  a  question  that  remains  to  be 
answered. 


HOLLISTERS   OF   STINCHCOMBE.  1 7 

19.  Rogers  HoUister.  How  he  was  related  to  any  of 
the  preceding  does  not  appear.  His  wife  Marian  was 
buried  July  10,  1693.  He  appears  to  have  been  father  of 
the  following : 

20.  Miriamf  baptized  Dec.  15,  1659. 

21.  Elizabeth*  baptized  March  8,  1660. 

22.  John*  baptized  Dec.  8,  1665. 

23.  Sarah*  baptized  Aug.  30,  1667. 

24.  Ha (illegible),  baptized  March  10,  1669. 

Their  father  could  not  have  been  the  Roger  No.  5 
above,  for  as  his  son  owned  and  sold  the  manor  before 
1649,  ^^  's  to  be  inferred  that  that  Roger  was  dead  before 
that  year,  and  before  any  of  these  children  were  born. 


Coat  of  Arms. 

The  Hollisters  of  England,  ancient,  talented,  and  wealthy 
as  the  family  appears  to  have  been,  and  although  they 
sometimes  owned  landed  estates,  never  seem  to  have  been 
a  "family"  in  the  English  sense  of  the  word.  They  are 
not  mentioned  in  Burke's  "Landed  Gentry,"  or  in  VVal- 
ford*s  "County  Families";  and  it  is  evident  that  they 
never  took  as  prominent  a  position  in  England  as  they 
have  in  America.  This  may  be  attributed  to  the  fact  that 
the  Emigrant  himself  was  a  man  of  unusual  ability,  and 
he  and  his  immediate  descendants  intermarried  with  some 
of  the  best  blood  of  New  England. 

The  anonymous  compiler  of  one  of  Hon.  Gideon  H. 
Hollister's  manuscript  accounts  of  the  Stinchcombe  Hol- 
listers says  that  no  mention  of  Hollister  arms  is  to  be 
found  in  any  book  or  manuscript  in  the  British  Museum. 
Later,  however,  he  pictures  ,  (without  stating  where  he 
found  them)  the  arms  of  Trotriian  {argent^  a  cross  gules 
between  four  roses  of  the  second)  impaling — he  says 
"quartering" — the  Hollister  arms.  These  arms,  which 
have  long  been  claimed   by  the  Hollisters  of  America,.

THE  HQLLISTER   FAMILY.  19 


THE   AMERICAN    HOLLISTERS. 


Lieut.  John'  Hollister. 

John'  Hollister,  the  ancestor  of  the  American  family  of 
that  name,  is  said  to  have  been  born  in  England  in  1612, 
^nd  to  have  emigrated  to  America  about  1642.  The  com- 
piler has  sought  in  vain  for  some  conclusive  authority  for 
these  two  statements.  Nor  can  the  place  of  his  birth  be 
positively  given,  though  it  is  supposed  he  sailed  from 
Bristol,  England. 

That  he  was  of  a  good  family  and  educated  is  almost 
•certain,  as  he  immediately  became  one  of  the  most  promi- 
•nent  and  influential  men  of  Wethersfield  and  the  Con- 
mecticut  Colony.  His  name  first  appears  in  the  annals  of 
that  colony  as  juror  of  the  particular  court  held  March  2 
1642.  He  was  admitted  freeman  in  1643;  was  a  deputy 
nn  1644,  again  in  April,  1645,  ^"^  represented  the  town  of 
Wethersfield  many  times  thereafter  until  1656.  His  name 
appears  also  as  a  juror  in  June,  1646.  Mr.  Hollister,  with 
Thos.  Coleman  and  Nathaniel  Dickerson  were  appointed 
for  Wethersfield,  Oct.  3,  1654,  to  join  with  the  deputy- 
rgovernor  to  press  men  at  Wethersfield  for  an  expedition 
(probably  against  the  Indians).  Mr.  Hollister  and  others 
•were  appointed  by  the  general  court,  February,  1656,  to 
igive  "  the  best  and  safe  advice  to  the  Indians,  if  they 
agreed  to  meet  and  should  crave  their  advice." 

His  name  first  appears  as  Lieut.  Hollister  in  March, 
1658-9,  when  he  applied  to  the  general  court  as  to  the 
charges  of  the  church  at  Wethersfield  against  him  for 
which  he  had  been  excommunicated.  The  following 
account  of  that  unfortunate  quarrel  is  taken  from  Hollis- 
ter's  "History  of  Connecticut:" 

By  this   time,  the   church   at   Wethersfield   had   again 
I  become  ripe  for  dissensions.     Probably  within  two  years 


tmm 


20  THE   HOLLISTER    FAMILY. 

after  the  death  of  Mr.  Smith,  but  at  what  precise  date  is 
not  known,  the  Rev.  John  Russell  was  called  and  ordained 
there,  so  far  as  appears,  without  opposition.  The  first  part 
of  his  ministry  was  quiet  and  seemed  to  promise  well  for 
the  future.  But  the  Hartford  controversy  gradually 
extended  into  the  church  and  some  other  elements  of  a 
very  combustible  character  were  made  to  feed  the  flame. 
Among  other  things,  Mr.  Russell  appears  to  have  been  a 
witness  in  a  lawsuit,  and  to  have  testified  in  a  way  that 
was  severely  animadverted  upon  by  Lieutenant  John  Hol- 
lister,  a  prominent  member  of  the  church.  Mr.  Russell 
held  the  views  with  Mr.  Stone  of  Hartford  in  relation  to 
church  government  and  discipline,  and  without  giving  the 
offending  member  an  opportunity  to  have  a  hearing,  or 
even  the  benefit  of  a  vote  of  the  church,  he  privately 
excommunicated  him  in  1656,  and  afterward  refused  to 
give  his  reasons  for  such  a  summary  proceeding  when 
they  were  demanded  by  Mr.  Hollister.  Had  Mr.  Russell 
been  anxious  to  test  the  practical  workings  of  his  plan  of 
church  government,  he  could  hardly  have  chosen  a  more 
favorable  subject  than  one  of  Captain  Mason's  military 
officers — a  gentleman  of  undoubted  probity,  an  experi- 
enced member  of  the  general  court  and  a  man  not  likely 
to  be  outdone  by  Mr.  Russell  in  the  steadiness  of  his  pur- 
poses and  the  obstinacy  of  his  resistance.  Besides  his  own 
natural  force  of  character,  Hollister  had  married  a  daugh- 
ter of  Richard  Treat,  Esquire,  one  of  the  most  formidable 
opponents  in  the  colony,  and  could  bring  into  the  quarrel 
an  array  of  names  that  the  general  court  would  hardly 
treat  with  contempt. 

The  whole  town  was  of  course  thrown  into  a  state  of 
excitement  at  this  unusual  war  waged  between  a  clergy- 
man against  a  member  of  his  church.  A  petition  was 
prepared  and  signed  by  the  excommunicated  member, 
four  other  male  members,  and  six  female  members  of  the 
church,  and  thirty-eight  others,  probably  all  members  of 
the  society,  many  of  whom  [as  will  be  seen  by  referring  to 
the  subjoined  note  and  document]  were  men  of  high  posi- 
tion— praying  the  court  to  relieve  the  applicants  from  the 
burden  of  a  minister  who  had  "taken  a  scandalous  and 
grievous  oath,  acknowledged  by  himself  to  be  ambiguous, 
rash,  and  sinful,"  who  had  himself  cut  asunder  the  ties  that 
bound  him  to  the  church,  and  who  still  remained  "a  heavy 
burden  upon  their  consciences." 

Meanwhile,  that  nothing  might  be  wanting  to  the  sue- 


LIEUT.  JOHN   HOLLISTER.  21 

cess  of  the  petition,  Hpllister  was  again  returned  a  mem- 
ber of  the  general  court  that  he  might  present  it  and 
advocate  it  with  such  earnestness  as  only  an  interested 
party  could  be  expected  to  do. 

At  the  session  of  the  court  held  on  the  i8th  of  August, 

1658,  HoUister  presented  the  petition  and  obtained  an 
order  that  Mr.  Russell  should  give  the  reasons  for  his  con- 
duct towards  "ye  Lieutenant  Hollister."  Those  reasons 
were  to  be  delivered  to  Hollister  or  be  placed  in  the  hands 
of  a  messenger  of  his  who  should  call  for  them  at  the 
Elder's  house.  In  case  this  order  should  not  be  complied 
with,  Messrs.  Samuel  Wells  and  Samuel  Boardman  were 
ordered  "  seasonably  to  repair  unto  Mr.  Russell  in  behalf 
of  Lieutenant  Hollister,  and  in  the  name  of  the  court 
desire  and  if  need  be  require  of  him  and  the  church  of 
Wethersfield  the  particular  charges  or  offences  for  which 
Mr.  Hollister  was  censured,  and  having  received  the  sd 
charges  from  Mr.  Russell  and  the  church,  forthwith  to 
deliver  them  to  Mr.  Hollister  for  his  help  and  conviction," 
and  inasmuch  as  "Mr.  Treat,  Mr.  Hollister,  and  John  Dem- 
ing  were  desirous  and  willing  to  attend  some  regular  way 
for  the  composing  their  differences,"  the  court  desired  the 
church  at  Wethersfield  to  devise  some  way  of  reconcilia- 
tion between  the  parties,  if  that  were  possible. 

When  the  court*  met  in  October,  1659,  '^  was  found 
that  the  same  "tedious  differences  and  troubles  still  existed 
between  Mr.  Russell  and  the  Lieutenant,"  and  that  some 
more  decisive  measures  must  be  taken. 

The  court  therefore  desired  the  churches  of  Hartford 
and  Windsor  "  to  send  two  or  three  messengers  apiece  to 
meet  in  Wethersfield  on  the  first  Tuesday  in  November, 

1659,  to  give  such  advice  in  the  premises  as  God  shall 
direct  them  unto  by  the  light  of  scripture  and  reason." 
Even  this  expedient  failed. 

The  quarrel  ended  with  the  removal  of  Mr.  Russell  to 
Hadley  with  his  adherents,  where  he  spent  the  remainder 
of  his  days.  At  this  remote  day  it  is  impossible  to  say 
who  was  most  in  fault  in  this  unhappy  controversy.  The 
more  charitable  conclusion  is  the  one  that  has  been  arrived 
at  by  all  the  authors  who  have  written  upon  it,  that  the 
conduct  of  neither  party  could  be  justified,  and  that  each 
was  too  rash  and  unforgiving  in  his  behavior.  This  was 
certainly  the  opinion  of  the  general  court  at  the  time.* 

*  In  this  singular  paper,  a  copy  of  which  is  here  given,  it  will  be  seen 
that  the  church  members  signed  by  themselves,  first  the  individual  aggrieved.

THE  IIOLLISTER    FAMILY. 


Lieut.  Hollister  was  appointed  collector  in  Wethersfield^ 
March  14,  1660.  He  was  a  large  land-holder  in  Wethers- 
field,  especially  in  that  portion  of  the  town  lying  on  the 
east  side  of  the  Connecticut  River,  now  known  as  Glaston- 
bury. 


followed  by  the  other  male  members;  then  the  female  members,  Mrs.  Treaty 
the  wife  of  Richard,  and  mother  of  Governor  Treat,  at  the  head,  and  next  to 
her  Mrs.  Hollister,  her  daughter,  the  wife  of  the  principal  applicant.  These 
male  and  female  names  are  separated  with  as  much  decency  as  their  owners- 
would  have  observed  in  the  meeting-house  on  the  Sabbath.  The  remaining 
signers  were  not  church  members : 

**  To  the  Right  Worshipful,  the  Governor  and  Deputy  Governor,  the  Wor- 
shipful Magistrates  and  Deputies,  assembled  at  Hartford  in  this  Honored 
Court,  your  humble  petitioners  wish  increase  of  all  felicity,  Aug.  17th,  1658. 
We,  inhabitants  of  Wethersfield,  are  necessitated  to  implore  the  aid  and 
assistance  of  this  Honored  Court,  and  thereafter  by  right  of  an  order  made 
last  March;  for  Mr.  Russell,  as  we  conceive,  is  not  our  settled  and  approved 
minister :  first,  he  having  sent  us  a  writing  in  the  Spring,  to  provide  for  our- 
selves  lest  we  be  destitute;  and  we  having  professed,  we  look  upon  ourselves 
as  free  by  answer  of  our  committee,  nor  can  we  close  with  him,  and  are  afraid 
to  venture  our  souls  under  his  ministry,  he  having  given  so  great  a  scandal  to 
the  Gospel  of  our  Lord  Jesus  Christ  by  such  a  grievous  oath,  acknowledged 
by  himself  to  be  ambiguous,  rash,  and  sinful,  and  what  more  may  be  made 
evident.  Therefore,  we,  your  humble  petitioners,  humbly  crave  that  we  may 
not  be  held  in  bondage,  but  may  use  our  liberty  in  procuring  a  minister  who 
may  be  faithful  in  the  administrations  of  the  Gospel,  and  inoffencive  in  his 
conversation;  otherwise  we,  your  humble  petitioners,  shall  be  forced  to 
undergo  whatever  inconvenience  or  damage  may  eome  upon  us  or  ours,  for 
we  tmnk  him  altogether  unfit  for  our  comfort.  And  we,  your  humble 
petitioners,  humbly  crave  your  help,  for  we  profess  it  lies  as  a  heavy  burden 
upon  our  consciences  and  we  know  no  rule  that  he  should  compel  us  to  it. 
And  if  your  humble  petitioners  find  acceptance  and  relief,  you  will  more 
engage  us  to  all  loyal  subjection  to  you,  so  humbly  we  take  our  leave  of  you, 
and  rest  yours  to  be  commanded.

LIEUT.  JOHN    HOLLISTER.  2J. 

The  land  lying  on  the  east  side  of  the  Connecticut 
River,  within  the  bounds  of  what  was  then  Wethersfield^ 
was  the  first  tract  of  land  in  the  colony  regularly  sur- 
veyed and  laid  out  in  farms, — this  having  been  done  pre- 
vious to  1640.  By  this  survey,  all  the  land  from  Hartford 
line  to  the  vicinity  of  Roaring  Brook  had  been  laid  out  in 
farms  of  various  widths,  each  being  bounded  by  the  great 
river  west  and  by  the  wilderness  east,  each  being  three 
miles  long.  The  object  of  this  seems  to  have  been  that 
every  one  might  possess  a  due  proportion  of  meadow,  of" 
upland  suitable  for  cultivation,  and  of  woodland,  furnish- 
ing the  fuel  and  timber  for  all  necessary  purposes. — 
[Chapin's  "Glastonbury  for  Two  Hundred  Years."] 

These  were  called  the  "Naubuc  Farms."     Lot  34  from 
the  Hartford  line  south  was  originally  set  out  to  Matthew 
Mitchell,  who  removed  to  Stamford  at  an  early  day.    This 
lot  was  150  rods  wide  and  contained  900  acres.     Mr.  Hol- 
lister  came  into  possession  of  the  third  quarter  of  this- 
lot,  and  also  owned  the  next  lot  lying  south  and  adjoining 
the  "Treat  farm."     To  this  he  added   10  acres  in  1655,.. 
purchased  of  the  executors  of  William  Gibbons  of  Hart- 
ford, it  being  land  set  out  to  the  Rev.  Mr.  Denton  in  1640. 
On  this  farm,  a  dwelling-house  and  other  necessary  build- 
ings had  been  erected  previously  to  165 1,  at  which  time 
Joseph  Gilbert  became  the  tenant  of  Mr.  Hollister,  and. 
remained  on  the  farm  until  1663. 

The  third  quarter  of  the  Mitchell  lot  and  a  considerable 
portion  of  the  other  lot  mentioned  remained  in  possession 
of  the  Hollister  family  until  1884,  when,  on  the  death  of  its. 
owner,  Mr.  Charles  Hollister,  it  passed  into  other  hands. 
The  house  in  which  he  lived,  "the  old  Red  House,"  is  said 
to  have 'been  built  in  1675.  It  is  pleasantly  located  oa 
the  west  bank  of  Roaring  Brook,  facing  south,  on  the 
road  which  leads  to  the  Rocky- Hill  ferry.  It  is  a  large 
two-story  house,  the  upper  story  projecting  over  the  lower 
one  a  few  inches,  after  the  manner  of  the  old  colonial 
houses  of  that  period.  The  "best  room"  is  very  hand- 
somely finished,  the  panels  and  mouldings  being  unusually

good  for  a  house  of  that  time.  An  unusual  outside  orna- 
ment is  the  brackets  or  corbels  carved  in  the  corner  and 
door-posts.  The  accompanying  picture  is  from  a  photo- 
graph, taken  some  time  before  the  death  of  Charles  Hol- 
lister,  the  late  owner,  who  is  shown  leaning  against  the 
hitching-post.  His  son  Charles,  now  dead,  stands  by  the 
gate. 

This  house  stands  some  distance  east  of  the  site  of  an 
older  one,  long  since  destroyed,  and  which  was  probably 
the  first  house  built  on  the  Hollister  farm.  The  old  well 
belonging  to  it  was  covered  up  during  the  early  part  of 
this  centur}',  but  was  uncovered  last  year  (1885)  and  is 
now  in  use. 

Speaking  of  the  peaceful  relations  existing  between  the 
early  settlers  of  Wethersfield  and  the  Indians,  Chapin,  in 
his  "Glastonbury  for  Two  Hundred  Years,"  pp.  12-13,  says: 

The  nearest  approach  to  hostilities  that  has  come  to  our 
knowledge  is  furnished  by  the  following  tradition  in  regard 
to  John  Hollister,  which  has  been  supplied  by  a  member 
of  the  family  abroad:  While  Mr.  Hollister  resided  on  the 
west  side  of  the  river,  he  was  accustomed  to  come  over 
and  cultivate  his  land  at  Nayaug,  unprotected  by  com- 
pany. On  one  occasion,  a  huge,  stalwart  Indian,  claiming 
to  be  the  most  athletic  and  powerful  man  of  the  tribe, 
appeared  before  him,  saying  that  he  had  been  told  that 
Mr.  H.  was  the  stoutest  pale-face  in  the  settlement  and 
proposing  a  trial  of  strength  in  a  fight.  Mr.  H.  assented, 
and  at  it  they  went.  After  engaging  in  combat  until  both 
were  wellnigh  exhausted,  they  agreed  upon  a  truce,  and 
sitting  down  on  a  log,  rested  themselves.  Having  recov- 
ered breath  and  strength,  they  fought  again,  and  again 
rested,  fighting  and  resting  until  sundown,  when  neither 
having  conquered,  they  exchanged  tokens  of  friendship, 
and  ever  after  lived  in  peace. 

Lieut.  John'  Hollister  married  Joanna,  daughter  of  Hon. 
Richard  Treat,  Sr.,  and  his  first  wife  Joanna.  She  sur- 
vived him,  and  is  mentioned  in  his  will  given  below.  He 
died  at  Wethersfield  in  April,  1665.  His  widow  died  in 
October,  1694.     Children:

Hon.  Richard  Treat,  Sr. 

Richard  Treat,  Sr..  was  one  of  the  first  settlers  of 
Wethersficld,  and  represented  that  town  in  the  first  gen- 
eral court  in  1637.  He  was  appointed  in  1642  by  the 
general  court,  in  connection  with  Gov.  Wyllys,  Messrs. 
Haines.  Hopkins,  Whiting,  and  others,  to  superintend 
building  a  ship,  and  to  collect  a  revenue  for  that  object- 
In  1643  he  was*  a  colonial  grand  juror,  and  in  ^644  a 
member  of  the  general  court  to  which  he  was  several 
times  reelected.  From  1658  to  1665,  he  was  an  assistant 
magistrate  of  the  colony  and  was  named  in  the  royal 
charter  of  Charles  H.  as  one  of  the  patentees.  He  was 
one  of  the  collectors  of  the  Fenwick  tax  and  of  the  fund 
for  the  support  of  students  in  the  college  at  Cambridge. 

He  married  first,  Joanna,  by  whom  he  had  several  chil- 
dren, among  whom  were  Robert,  governor  of  Connecticut 
for  many  years,  and  Joanna,  wife  of  Lieut.  John  Hollister. 
His  second  wife  Alice  survived  him,  and  is  mentioned  in 
his  will.     He  died  in  1669.

30  the  hollister  family. 

John  Hollister  of  Weymouth,  Mass. 

Nearly  all  the  authorities  who  speak  of  Lieut,  John 
Hollister  of  Wethersfield,  Conn.,  say  that  he  was  at  Wey- 
mouth, Mass.,  in  1643,  and  represented  that  town  in  the 
Massachusetts  legislature  in  1644. 

The  town  clerk  of  Weymouth,  under  date  of  Feb.  9, 
1886,  writes  as  follows: 

I  find  on  examining  the  records  of  this  town  the  name 
of  John  Hollister  signed  as  one  of  the  "Townsmen,"  Nov. 
20th,  1645;  Feb.  9th,  1645;  24th  of  the  (not  given)  month, 
1645;  April  I7th>  1646.  Also,  among  the  grants  of  land 
to  several  persons,  which  grants  are  without  date,  I  find 
the  following: 

"THE   LANDS  OF  JOHN    HOLLESTER." 

"  Two  acres  and  halfe  in  the  west  flSeld,  first  granted  to 
William  Howiand,  bounded  on  the  East,  West,  and  South 
by  the  Highwayes  and  on  the  North  by  the  land  of  Ed- 
ward Smith.  Power  acres  in  Harrises  Range,  first  granted 
to  William  Howiand,  bounded  on  the  East  by  the  High- 
way, on  the  West  against  a  little  swamp,  on  the  North  by 
the  land  of  William  Carpenter,  on  the  South  the  land  of 
Thomas  Clifton,  on  the  North." 

You  will  notice  that  Hollister  is  also  spelled  Hollester. 
I  have  carefully  examined  the  records  in  that  respect. 
I  do  not  find  any  records  of  his  being  a  representative. 

According  to  Trumbull's  "Colonial  Records  of  Con- 
necticut," John  Hollister  was  in  Wethersfield  March  2, 
1642,  in  April,  1645,  ^^^  *"  June,  1646.  Goodwin  says 
he  was  made  a  freeman  there  in  May,  1643. 

From  these  facts  it  would  appear  that  either  there  were 
two  John  Hollisters  in  New  England  at  the  same  time,  or 
that  one  owned  property  in  both  towns,  and  while  holding 
oflSce  in  Wethersfield  was  regarded  as  a  "Townsman"  in 
Weymouth. 

I  am  inclined  to  the  opinion  that  there  were  two  John 
Hollisters,  and  that  the  one  in  Weymouth  afterAvard 
returned  to  England,  still  holding  his  lands  in  Weymouth.

JOHN   HOLLISTER  OF  WEYMOUTH.  3 1 

published  in  the  January  (1886)  number  of  the  "N.-E. 
Historical  and  Genealogical  Register,"  page  62,  an  abstract 
of  the  will  of  John  Hollister  of  Bristol,  England,  proved 
Dec.  5,  1690,  in  which  he  mentions  land  leased  to  Capt. 
William  Torrey  and  his  son,  Mr.  Samuel  Torrey,  living  in 
Weymouth,  Mass.  This  John  Hollister  apparently  had 
no  children,  except  perhaps  a  daughter  Elizabeth,  who 
was  probably  his  step-daughter,  as  he  calls  her  his  daugh- 
ter in  one  place  and  daughter-in-law  in  another.  He 
mentions  cousin  John  Hollister,  son  of  Abel,  late  of  Yeate, 
in  Gloucestershire,  Eng.,  deceased;  cousin  Samuel  Hollis- 
ter of  Burrington,  Somerset;  cousin  Abel  Hollister's  six 
:Sons;  and  appoints  his  cousin  Philip  Hollister  sole  exec- 
utor.

(3.)    Johir  HoUister  (John'). 

Johnf  son  of  Lieut.  John'  Hollister  and  Joanna  Treat, 
was  born  in  Wethersfield  probably,«about  1644.  He  mar- 
ried Sarah  Goodrich,  Nov.  20,  1667.  She  was  a  daughter 
of  William  Goodrich  and  Sarah  Marvin,  and  died  in  Glas- 
tonbury, Comi.,  in  1700. 

Edwin  Hubbard,  the  veteran  genealogist,  now  engaged 
upon  a  genealogy  of  the  Goodrich  family,  in  a  personal 
communication  to  the  compiler  of  this  work,  says  that  he 
has  conclusively  established  that  John  and  William  Good- 
rich of  Wethersfield  were  sons  of  William  Goodrich,  Sr., 
of  Watertown,  Mass.  (See  Bond's  "Watertown,"  page 
777)  This  fpict  will  probably  be  shown  in  Hubbard's 
"Goodrich  Memorial,"  Part  HL  Ensign  William  Good- 
rich married  Sarah,  daughter  of  Matthew  Marvin  of  Hart- 
ford, Oct.  4,  1648.  Mr.  Goodrich  died  in  Wethersfield  in 
1676,  and  his  widow  Sarah  married  Capt.  William  Curtis, 
and  died  in  Stratford,  Conn.,  in  1702. 

Matthew  Marvin  came  to  America  from  London  in  the 
ship  Increase,  in  1635.  He  was  then  35  years  of  age,  and 
brought  with  him  his  wife  Elizabeth,  aged  31,  and  chil- 
dren: Elizabeth,  11;  Matthew,  8;  Mary,  6;  Sarah,  3;  and

Hannah,  6  months.  He  was  an  original  proprietor  of 
Hartford  in  1638,  and  was  one  of  the  original  grantees 
of  Norwalk,  and  settled  there  in  1653.  He  was  a  repre- 
sentative the  next  year. 

John  Hollister,  Jr.,  was  one  of  the  principal  men  of 
Glastonbury,  where  he  died  Nov.  24,  171 1.  He  seemed 
to  possess  the  boligorant  spirit  of  his  father,  and  was  for  b^  U/pO/*  >  J 
some  years  engaged  in  the  noted  lawsuit  between  Hollis- 
ter and  Bulkley  over  the  boundary  line  of  certain  lands, 
which  trial  finally  resulted  in  a  resurvey  of  all  the  "  lots  '* 
from  the  Hartford  line  to  Nayaug  by  order  of  the  general 
court,  and  which  has  been  preserved  in  the  archives  of  the 
State.  The  papers  preserved  relative  to  this  case  are  of 
importance  to  the  history  of  the  town.  This  was  in  1684- 
85.  (See  Chapin's  "Glastonbury  for  Two  Hundred  Years," 
pages  181,  182,  183.)     Children:

in  the  affairs  of  the  town;  he  was  a  member  of  the  general 
court  for  many  xears,  and  was  styled  ** the  worshipful  Mr. 
John  Talcott"  He  was  one  of  the  committee  appointed

war  with  the  Pequot  Indians,  and  upon  whose  recom- 
mendation a  war  was  accordingly  declared.  He  was  one 
of  the  chief  magistrates  of  the  colony  until  his  death,

in  the  town.  She  entertained  many  officers  of  the  Revo- 
lution, even  Gen.  Washington.  She  was  noted  for  large 
benevolence ;  her  home  she  opened  as  an  asylum  for 
wounded  soldiers.  She  was  greatly  beloved  and  highly 
educated.  It  is  related  of  her  that  she  could  give  the 
definition  of  every  word  in  the  dictionary."

72  THE   HOLLISTER   FAMILY. 

(87.)    Capt.  Timothys  HoUister  (Joseph?  John?  John^. 

Timothyf  son  of  Joseph^  HoUister  and  Ann ,  was 

born  in  Glastonbury,  Conn.;  he  married  Lucretia(.^) . 

His  house  and  its  contents  having  been  destroyed  by  fire, 
he  left  Glastonbury  and  went  to  Pennsylvania,  and  pur- 
chased a  large  tract  of  land  in  the  Wyoming  Flats. 
Leaving  his  wife  and  babe  behind  at  a  settlement  of 
whites,  he  and  his  two  oldest  sons  went  into  the  wilder- 
ness to  clear  up  a  place  for  the  family.  They  had  cleared 
a  field  and  were  plowing  with  oxen  one  day  when  they 
were  attacked  by  the  Indians,  who  had  crept  up  behind  a 
brush  fence  and  shot  at  them.  The  father  and  eldest  son 
were  killed.  This  was  Oct.  15,  1763.  Isaac,  the  second 
son,  attempted  to  make  his  escape,  but  while  climbing 
over  the  brush  fence  was  captured  by  the  Indians.  One 
of  the  oxen  was  shot  dead  in  the  furrow,  the  other  one 
managed  to  get  away  with  the  yoke  hanging  to  his  neck, 
and  after  several  days  wandered  back  to  the  settlement 
where  the  wife  and  babe  had  been  left.  This  gave  the 
first  intimation  that  harm  had  befallen  the  father  and  sons. 

Isaac  was  fourteen  years  of  age  when  captured  by  the 
Indians,  and  was  a  prisoner  for  several  years,  being  a  man 
grown  when  he  made  his  escape.  He  and  a  man  by  the 
name  of  Bush  made  the  first  attempt  in  winter,  but  failed. 
Bush  fell  into  a  stream  they  were  crossing  on  the  ice  and 
got  so  chilled  through  that  he  died.  Isaac  HoUister  buried 
him  and  returned  to  the  Indians,  explaining  their  absence 
by  saying  that  they  had  got  lost  while  hunting,  and  that 
Bush  had  got  drowned.  The  Indians  did  not  believe  his 
story,  and  compelled  him  to  "  run  the  gauntlet.*'  He  had 
nearly  finished  his  run  between  two  lines  of  savages  armed 
with  clubs  when  he  was  knocked  down,  and  would  have 
been  beaten  to  death  had  not  a  friendly  squaw  interposed, 
and  dragging  him  out,  nursed  him  back  to  life  and  recov- 
ery. She  afterward  aided  him  in  his  second  and  success- 
ful attempt.  She  told  him  in  what  direction  to  go  to 
reach  the  nearest  white  settlement,  and  how  to  follow  the 


FOURTH  GENERATION.  73 

streams  to  get  there,  and  advised  him  to  go  in  summer 
instead  of  winter.  The  Indians  who  captured  him  were 
of  the  Genesee  tribe.  Their  camping-ground  was  where 
the  city  of  Rochester  now  stands. 

When  he  made  his  escape,  he  followed  the  Genesee 
River  and  then  the  Mohawk.  He  was  directed  to  go  to 
the  settlement  at  Schenectady,  but  he  missed  his  way  and 
came  out  at  Albany.  He  told  his  story  to  the  whites 
there,  was  kindly  received  by  them,  and  went  to  work 
there  as  a  mason.  Afterward  he  learned  the  reed-makers* 
and  weavers*  trades  of  the  man  who  became  his  father-in- 
law.  He  married  Elizabeth  Newcomb.  She  had  a  brother 
Kinner,  from  whom  came  the  name  which  is  frequently 

• 

found  in  this  branch  of  the  family  since  her  time.  Asa, 
brother  of  Isaac,  was  left  behind  with  his  mother,  as 
before  mentioned.  He  was  then  about  ten  months  old. 
After  he  grew  up,  he  married  and  settled  in  Amenia,  N.Y. 
About  the  year  1820,  Isaac  heard  of  Asa,  who  was  then 
living  at  Groton,  N.Y.,  and  sent  for  him.  They  met  at 
the  house  of  Isaac's  son  Isaac  Asa  was  the  first  and 
only  one  of  his  family  that  Isaac  ever  found  after  his 
return  from  captivity.  He  was  at  that  time  70  years  of 
age.  Isaac  Hollister,  after  his  marriage,  lived  a  short 
time  at  Hurly  Flats,  N.Y. ;  he  then  went  to  Marbletown, 
now  called  Olive.  Ulster  Co.,  N.Y.,  where  probably  all  his 
children  were  born.  As  will  be  seen  below,  four  of  his 
children  married  Winchells.  James  and  Lemuel  Winchell 
were  brothers. 

The  above  is  the  story  of  Isaac  Hollister,  as  derived 
from  several  of  the  descendants  of  his  father  Timothy. 
It  will  be  noticed  that  there  are  several  important  discre- 
pancies. The  date  of  the  death  of  father  and  son  is  given 
as  Oct.  15,  1763,  at  which  time  Asa  is  said  to  have  been 
ten  months  of  age.  But  his  descendants  say  that  he  was

In  the  name  of  God,  amen.  I,  Elijah  HoUister,  of  Glas- 
tonbury, County  of  Hartford  and  State  of  Connecticut, 
being  very  sick,  and  weak  in  body,  but  of  perfect  mind 
and  memory,  calling  unto  mind  the  mortality  of  my  body 
and  knowing  that  it  is  appointed  for  all  men  once  to  die, 
do  make  and  ordain  this  my  last  Will  and  Testament,  that 
is  to  say,  principally  and  first  of  all  I  give  and  recommend 
my  soul  into  the  hand  of  Almighty  God,  that  gave  it,  and 
my  body  I  recommend  to  the  earth,  to  be  buried  in  decent 
Christian  burial  at  the  discretion  of  my  executors,  nothing 
doubting  that  at  the  general  resurrection  I  shall  receive 
the  same  again  by  the  mighty  power  of  God.  And  as 
touching  such  worldly  estate  wherewith  it  has  pleased 
God  to  bless  me  in  this  life,  I  give  and  dispose  of  the 
same  in  the  following  manner  and  form : 

Imprimis. — I  will  that  my  just  and  honest  debts  shall 
be  paid  out  of  my  movable  estate. 

Item. — I  give  to  Mary  Hollister,  my  dearly  beloved

moveable  estate  during  her  natural  life.

half  of  my  fulling  mill,  clothier  shop,  and  dye  house,  to-

Item. — I  give  to  my  son  John  Hollister  one  half  of  my 
fulling  mill,  clothier  shop,  and  dye  house,  together  with 
one  half  of  all  the  utensils  thereunto  belonging.  Also 
one  fourth  part  of  my  saw  mill,  with  all  the  privileges 
thereunto  belonging,  only  he  paying  the  cost  of  building 
sd  saw  mill  one  fourth  part.  I  also  give  to  my  son  John 
one  third  part  of  my  grist  mill,  with  all  the  privileges 
thereunto  belonging,  only  he  paying  thirty  three  pounds 
and  one  third  in  addition  to  what  he  has  already  paid 
towards  the  repair  of  said  grist  mill. 

Item. — I  give  to  my  sons  Roswell  Hollister  and  Samuel 
Hollister  my  homestead,  containing  one  acre  of  land,  to- 
gether with  all  the  buildings  thereon  standing,  to  them 
and  their  heirs  forever,  to  be  equally  divided  between  them. 

Item. — I  give  all  my  landed  estate  not  heretofore  men- 
tioned to  my  four  youngest  sons  (viz.:)  Roswell  Hollister, 
Samuel  Hollister,  Josiah  Hollister,  and  Alexander  Hollis- 
ter, to  be  equally  divided  between  them  and  their  heirs 
forever.

I  likewise  give  to  my  son  Alexander  Hollister  two  thirds 
part  of  my  corn  mill,  with  all  the  privileges  thereto  be-

years  of  age  do  not  take  possession  of  their  shares  of  my 
estate  until  they  come  of  age,  in  case  the  elder  brothers

(210.)    Aarons  Hollister. 

(Thomasf  Thomas,^  Johnf  John'). 

Aaron?  son  of  Thomas*  Hollister  and  Abigail  Talcott, 
was  born  in  Eastbury  Society,  Glastonbury,  Conn.,  April 
3,  1753;  he  married  Phcebe,  daughter  of  Joshua  Goodrich 
of  Chatham,  Conn.,  Dec.  9,  1777.  She  died,  and  he  mar- 
ried second,  Louise .     He  resided  in  Glastonbury 

for  several  years  after  his  first  marriage,  and  for  a  short 
time  after  his  second  marriage.  He  probably  moved  to 
New  York  State  about  the  middle  of  1795,  as  his  daugh- 
ter Louise  was  baptized  in  Eastbury,  June  25,  1795,  and 
his  death  was  heard  of  at  Eastbury,  Oct.  12,  179S,  he  then 
being  in  Richfield,  N.Y.  His  daughter  Phoebe  was  born 
after  her  father's  death.     Children :

479.  Louise?  bapt.  June  25,  1795. 

480.  Phoebe?  b.  after  her  father's  death. 

This  record  is  made  up  from  the  Eastbury  Church 
Records  and  information  derived  from  Miss  Harriet  Hol- 
lister, niece  of  Aaron.  She  told  the  compiler  that  Aaron 
Hollister  married  Phoebe  Dickinson,  but  the  church  records 
say  she  was  a  daughter  of  Joshua  Goodrich.  Possibly  both 
are  correct,  and  she  may  have  been  a  widow  when  Aaron 
married  her.  Miss  Hollister  did  not  mention  a  second 
"wife,  but  the  church  records  mention  Louise,  daughter  of 
Aaron  and  Louise.  She  said  nothing  of  Julian,  but  speaks 
of  Jason,  who  married  Zilpha  Perkins.  The  compiler  has 
never  been  able  to  communicate  with  any  of  the  descend- 
ants of  Aaron  Hollister. 

(211.)    Josiah^  Hollister. 
(Thomasf  Thomas?  John?  John'). 

Josiah?  son  of  Thomas^  Hollister  and  Abigail  Talcott, 
was  born  in  Eastbury  Society,  Glastonbury,  Conn.,  Feb. 
21,  1756.  He  served  under  Gen.  Washington  in  the  Revo- 
lution, and  used  to  entertain  his  descendants  with  stories 
of  his  commander,  and  especially  of  Lady  Washington, 
for  whom  he  once  made  a  wardrobe,  which  gave  her  great 
satisfaction,  but  him  still  more,  as  he  never  tired  of  telling 
of  it. 

Josiah  Hollister  was  tall,  straight,  active,  strong,  and 
ambitious.  He  enjoyed  vigorous  health  until  he  was  more 
than  seventy  years  of  age,  and  retained  a  considerable 
degree  of  strength  and  his  sight,  hearing,  and  memory 
until  his  death,  which  occurred  Sept.  8,  1849.  >^  the  94th

the  centre  of  the  circle  in  which  she  moved.  Possessing 
fine  judgment  and  large  benevolence,  she  was  loved  and 
respected  by  all  classes  of  society.  Moving  into  the  place 
when  it  was  comparatively  new,  which  for  more  than  fifty 
years  became  her  home,  she  identified  herself  with  its  best 
interests.  The  social,  moral,  educational,  and  religious

advanced  life,  and  with  but  one  exception,  remarkably 
happy  in  long  years  of  marriage,  each  passing  down  inta

(Samuel?  Josiah*  Thomas?  Johnf  John'). 

Josiah?  son  of  Samuel^  Hollister  and  Jemima  Phelps, 
was  born  in  Sharon,  Conn.,  March  19,  1754;  he  married 
1st,  Mehitable,  daughter  of  William  Andrews,  June  12, 
1777;  she  died  Jan.  22,  1783.  He  married  2d,  Naomi 
Tredwell. 

Josiah  Hollister  was  a  soldier  in  the  Revolution,  and 
was  taken  prisoner  at  Ballston,  N.Y.,  and  carried  to  Canada, 
where  he  remained  two  years  in  captivity.  He  afterward 
wrote  quite  a  lengthy  account  of  his  life  in  captivity,  both 
in  prose  and  verse,  from  which  the  following  is  taken: 

Extracts  from  the  Autobiography  of 
Josiah^  Hollister: 

In  May,  1775,  Josiah  Hollister  enlisted  in  Maj.  Samuel 
Elmore's  company,  Col.  Hinman's  regiment,  raised  by  the 
colony  of  Connecticut,  and  in  the  latter  part  of  that  month 
marched  to  Fort  Ticonderoga.  which  they  reached  on  the 
morning  of  the  ninth  day.     They  remained  there  in  garri- 


SIXTH  GENERATION.  1 23 

son  two  weeks,  when  Maj.  Elmore  was  ordered  to  march 
to  Crown  Point  to  take  command  there,  "which  ^o  enraged 
Benedict  Arnold  (who  had  assisted  in  taking  those  for- 
tresses from  the  British)  that  he  threatened  to  give  up  the 
sloop  and  surrender  to  the  British,  and  accordingly  went 
on  board  of  the  sloop  with  some  of  his  men  and  sailed 
down  the  lake,  and  in  passing  Crown  Point  the  channel 
was  close  to  land,  so  that  he  was  obliged  to  hug  close  to 
the  point,  where  was  a  redoubt  and  a  number  of  cannon 
placed.  I  was  then  on  sentry.  One  of  the  gunners  came 
with  his  lighted  match  and  hailed  him  and  demanded 
where  he  was  bound.  He  made  but  little  reply.  The 
gunner  ordered  him  to  drop  anchor.  He  said  he  would 
go  to  the  proper  anchoring  place.  He  ordered  him  ta 
let  go  the  anchor  immediately,  or  he  would  blow  him 
through.  He  then  let  go,  and  walked  the  deck  for  about 
one  hour  in  as  great  a  passion  as  I  ever  saw  a  man.  From 
that  time  I  ever  had  a  dislike  to  him,  so  that  it  was  not 
surprising  to  me  when  he  turned  out  to  be  an  infamous 
traitor.'* 

After  a  campaign  of  about  six  months,  the  company  to 
which  Hollister  belonged  was  discharged,  and  he  returned 
to  Sharon,  where  he  stayed  until  the  spring  of  1776.  and 
then  to  Litchfield,  until  the  Declaration  of  Independence,, 
when  the  militia  was  called  to  New  York.  He  went  in 
Capt.  H.  Bueirs  company,  and  acted  as  cook,  barber,  and 
clerk  to  the  adjutant  until  after  the  retreat  of  the  Ameri- 
cans from  Long  Island.  Shortly  after  this  he  was  taken 
sick  and  was  sent  home. 

On  June   12,  1777,  he  married  Mehitablc,  daughter  of 
Wm.  Andrews,  and  in  July  they  began  housekeeping  on 

m 

the  little  farm  his  father  had  left  him.  During  this  year 
the  frontier  was  greatly  disturbed  by  the  enemy,  and  the 
militia  was  often  called  out.  In  the  spring  of  1779  he 
sold  his  farm  and  went  to  Vermont,  to  buy  another,  but  a 
dispute  arising  about  the  title,  he  again  sold  out,  but  was 
defrauded  out  of  his  money.     He  finally  settled  in  Balls- 


124  THE   HOLLISTER   FAMILY. 

ton,  N.Y.  On  the  morning  of  Oct.  17,  1779,  the  place 
was  attacked  by  the  British  and  Indians,  and  the  houses 
burned  and  many  of  the  inhabitants  massacred,  while 
others,  among  whom  was  Hollister,  were  carried  away 
captive.  Dragged  away  from  his  wife  and  children,  who 
were  left  without  shelter  and  sufficient  clothing,  he  was 
made  to  undergo  a  long  and  painful  march  to  Canada. 
They  were  kept  prisoners  at  Montreal  for  two  years,  sub- 
jected to  great  cruelty  and  privations;  while  here,  he  and 
his  fellow  prisoners  dug  an  underground  passage  and  sev- 
eral escaped,  but  Hollister  was  not  one  of  the  fortunate 
ones. 

On  Oct.  17,  1782,  the  prisoners  were  liberated  and  sent 
down  the  river  on  a  man-of-war  ship.  They  encountered 
a  terrible  storm  and  came  near  being  shipwrecked,  and 
probably  would  have  been  if  they  had  not  got  help  from 
some  of  the  prisoners  who  knew  how  to  manage  a  ship. 
This  was  off  the  island  Anticosti.  Fifteen  days  after  leav- 
ing Quebec  they  reached  Boston,  but  it  happened  to  be 
Thanksgiving  Day,  and  Gov.  Hancock  would  not  receive 
them  that  day.  On  landing,  they  expected  to  draw  some 
provisions,  but  the  governor  would  not  allow  any  to  those 
who  were  taken  while  on  their  farms.  So  Hollister  was 
obliged  to  beg  his  way  and  sell  a  part  of  his  clothing  to 
get  back  to  Connecticut.  Here  he  learned  that  his  wife 
was  dying,  and  reached  the  place  where  she  was  staying 
only  a  short  time  before  her  death. 

A  deep  religious  spirit  is  shown  throughout  the  long 
narrative  of  which  the  above  is  a  brief  abstract.  The 
following  is  the  last  stanza  of  a  description  of  his  life  and 
trials  in  rhyme,  written  by  himself: 

"Thanks  be  to  God,  His  name  be  praised. 
He  hath  preserved  me  all  my  days. 
Although  He  smote  me  with  a  rod. 
Give  me  a  heart  to  praise  my  God." 

He  died  at  the  house  of  his  son,  Samuel  L.,  in  Mans- 
field, N.Y.,  July  4,  1832.

Mrs.  Hollister's  Birthday. 

Saturday,  August  9,  [1884,]  was  made  memorable  by 
the  celebration  of  the  one  hundreth  birthday  of  Mrs.  Eu- 
nice Hollister,  at  the  farmhouse  in  Wassuc,  now  owned  by 
her  grandson,  Ezra  S.  Hollister.  It  is  estimated  that  at 
least  one  thousand  persons  were  present  at  different  times 
during  the  day,  and  over  five  hundred  remained  during  the 
afternoon,  listened  to  the  speeches,  and  partook  of  the 
ample  repast  furnished  by  the  family  and  their  friends. 
The  aged  lady  bore  it  well,  and  her  amiable  and  placid 
countenance,  unfurrowed  save  by  a  few  wrinkles,  indicated 
the  pleasure  she  enjoyed  in  receiving  the  congratulations 
of  her  friends  on  such  an  occasion,  so  wonderful  and  rare 
for  a  human  being  to  experience.  Mrs.  Eunice  Hollister 
was  the  second  child  and  oldest  daughter  of  Fraray  Hale, 
and  his  wife  Eunice  Atherton.  Fraray  Hale  was  the  son 
of  Isaac  Hale,  who  was  the  son  of  Timothy  Hale,  son  of 
Thomas  Hale,  who  came  to  the  Connecticut  colony  at  a 
very  early  period  and  was  a  **soldier  in  the  Pequot  war." 
Her  father  died  in  1842  aged  88,  her  mother  died  in  1838 
aged  81.  She  married  Nehemiah  Hollister  83  years  ago, 
who  died  in  1842.  Mr.  Hollister  was  a  descendant  of 
John  Hollister,  one  of  the  first  settlers  in  Wethersfield 
and  Glastonbury  some  250  years  ago.  She  had  one 
child  only,  a  son  named  Edwin  Hollister,  who  died  in 
1879.  She  has  six  grandchildren,  Horace  N.  Hollister  of 
Bridgeport,  Nelson  E.  Hollister  of  Plymouth,  George  B. 


150  THE  HOLLISTER  FAMILY. 

Hollister  of  Binghamton,  N.Y.,  Leverett  T.  Hollister  of 
Glastonbury,  Ezra  S.  Hollister,  who  is  at  the  old  home- 
stead, and  Mrs.  Annie  E.  Smith,  wife  of  James  B.  Smith 
of  Hartford.  There  are  fourteen  great-grandchildren,  and 
four  great-great-grandchildren,  three  of  the  latter  being 
present.  The  families  of  her  brothers  and  sisters  were 
represented  to  a  considerable  extent.  That  of  her  brother 
Fraray  Hale,  by  Fraray  Hale  of  Wallingford,  his  wife  and 
son,  the  fourth  of  that  name.  Mrs.  Betsey  (Hale)  House 
(deceased),  was  represented  by  Mrs.  Azel  Chapman,  Mrs, 
Jane  Hills  and  Mr.  Hezekiah  K.  House,  their  children^ 
grandchildren  and  great-grandchildren.  Her  brother* 
Marvin  Hale,  deceased,  by  Almeron  Hale,  wife  and  child* 
of  Watch  Hill,  R.I.  As  to  the  collateral  branches,  it 
would  require  a  census  of  the  Yankee  born  in  this,  and 
the  neighboring  towns  to  set  forth  the  individual  names* 
as  the  Hale  and  Hollister  families  ramify  so  thoroughly 
with  the  others  of  Yankee  lineage.  Not  the  least  inter- 
esting  feature  of  the  scene  was  the  presence  of  several  oW 
people,  among  others  Mrs.  Mehitable  Dayton  in  her  98th 
year,  Mrs.  Caroline  Strong,  in  her  96th  year,  and  Mr. 
Halsey  Buck,  father  of  Hon.  John  R.  Buck,  who  is  nearly 
91.  There  are  others  in  the  immediate  neighborhood  who 
are  approaching  in  near  view  of  the  three  figures.  Those 
present  seemed  to  bear  the  burden  of  their  years  lightly, 
and  hardly  to  recognize,  in  the  words  of  Mrs.  Dayton,  that 
they  were  really  old  people,  whatever  others  might  say. 
Just  before  sitting  down  to  the  ample  repast,  which  was 
served  in  a  large  tent  on  the  grounds,  capable  of  accommo- 
dating some  three  hundred  at  a  time.  Rev.  S.  G.  W.  Rankin 
called  the  company  to  order,  and  after  singing  by  Messrs. 
Cornish,  Brainard  and  others,  ladies  and  gentlemen,  made 
a  felicitous  address.  He  was  followed  by  W.  S.  Goslee  in 
a  few  words,  and  then  by  our  friend  Hon.  John  R.  Buck, 
who  always  speaks  well,  and,  among  the  scenes  of  his 
boyhood,  never  spoke  better.  He  was  full  of  interesting 
reminiscences,  and  the  audience  enjoyed  his  address  ex- 
ceedingly. The  aged  lady  then  took  her  seat  at  the  table* 
and  no  one  seemed  more  to  enjoy  the  spread  of  good 
things.  When  table  after  table  had  been  cleared,  leaving 
a  bountiful  supply  not  used,  singing  and  music  were 
enjoyed,  with  dancing  by  some  of  the  younger  people. 
Among  others  who  appeared  to  grace  this  active  exercise 
was  our  friend  George  B.  Hollister,  who  modestly  bore  the

troop  of  friends  in  Binghamton,  and  who  rejoices  in  the 
soubriquet  of  "  Uncle  George,"  when  at  home.  Eighteen 
years  of  absence  from  his  native  town  have  not  changed 
him,  and  he  is  the  same  hearty,  whole-souled  man  as  of 
old,  although  his  hair  has  grown  grayer  and  his  shadow 
more  ample.  It  was  remarked  by  many  that  Mrs.  HoUis- 
ter  never  has  had  an  enemy  in  all  the  long  years  of  her 
residence  here.  Her  intellect  is  yet  unclouded,  and  her 
interest  in  the  daily  affairs  of  life  still  continues.  She  has 
been  domestic  in  her  habits,  although  she  has  at  different 
times  visited  her  sisters  out  of  the  State.  It  is  understood 
that  she  has  never  found  tobacco  in  the  form  of  a  small 
quantity  of  snuff  to  affect  her  very  seriously,  a  fact  which 
may  be  noted  by  the  anti-tobacconists.

(498.)     Dr.  Asa^  Coleman. 

(Eunice^  Hollister,  ElishaJ  Thomas?  John?  John'). 

Asa^  Coleman,  son  of  Eunice^  Hollister  and  Dr.  Asaph 
Coleman,  was  born  in  Glastonbury,  Conn.,  July  2,   1788. 

Dr.  Asa  Coleman. 

Asa  Coleman,  second  son  of  Dr.  Asaph  Coleman,  was 
born  in  Glastonbury,  Connecticut,  July  2,  1788.  The  son 
of  a  physican  and  surgeon  in  the  Continental  army,  young 
Coleman  early  turned  his  attention  to  the  study  of  medi- 
cine and  surger>'.  The  common  school  gave  him  the  rudi- 
ments of  education,  and  the  Glastonbury  Academy,  an 
institution  then  of  recent  origin,  and  conducted  by  able 
and  eminent  teachers,  carried  him  through  his  preliminary 
course.  Pursuing  his  studies  with  his  father,  and  also 
away  from  home,  he  received  a  diploma  from  the  Con- 
necticut State  Medical  Society,  May  23,  18 10.  Having 
made  a  prospecting  tour  to  the  new  State  of  Ohio  in  the 
fall  of  1807,  2i"d  having  passed  the  winter  there,  he  resol- 
ved to  make  that  State  his  future  home.     Accordingly,  in 


l6o  THE   HOLLISTER  FAMILY. 

May,  i8i  I,  he  left  his  native  State,  and  during  the  summer 
located  in  Troy,  Miami  County,  Ohio.  He  received  a 
diploma  November  ii,  1811,  from  the  Ohio  Board  of 
Medical  Examiners,  and  established  himself  in  the  practice 
of  medicine  and  surgery  in  the  town  above  named,  and 
pursued  his  calling  for  more  than  half  a  century  with  con- 
stant success  till  the  close  of  his  career. 

The  early  history  of  Troy  is  a  story  of  a  forest  cleared, 
streets  laid  out,  and  improvements  effected,  in  all  of  which 
Dr.  Coleman  took  an  active  and  leading  part. 

Thoroughly  qualified  in  surgery,  he  was  commissioned 
surgeon  of  the  Sixth  Connecticut  Militia,  September  24,. 
1808.  He  was  again  commissioned  by  Ohio,  Sept.  24,  181 1. 
As  a  surgeon  of  the  Ohio  militia,  he  was  constantly  oh  the 
round  of  duty,  visiting  the  sick  and  wounded  at  the  block- 
houses and  posts  along  the  northern  boundary  of  Miami,, 
then  the  frontier  settlement  next  to  the  Indian  Territory. 
Other  commissions  followed,  as  surgeon  and  major,  May 
20,  1 8 16,  and  lieutenant-colonel,  July  27,  18 18,  from  Gov. 
Worthington. 

Dr.  Coleman  was  elected  in  October,  18 16,  to  repre- 
sent his  district  in  the  State  Legislature,  and  served  as  a 
member  of  the  first  session  ever  held  in  the  city  of  Colum- 
bus, December,  18 16.  He  was  reelected  in  the  following 
year,  and  served  a  second  term,  declining  a  third,  although 
strongly  urged  to  become  a  candidate. 

Elected  to  the  office  of  associate  judge,  he  was  com- 
missioned February  4,  1822,  by  Gov.  Allen  Trimble,  for  a 
period  of  seven  years. 

Chosen  as  a  director  of  the  Miami  County  Branch  of 
the  State  Bank  of  Ohio  at  its  organization,  in  1846,  he 
served  as  an  officer  until  its  close,  in  1866.  He  was 
instrumental  in  the  organization  of  the  First  National 
Bank  of  Troy,  was  elected  the  first  president,  served  three 
years,  and  then  resigned  through  failing  health. 

A  full  believer  in  the  ancient  and  honorable  institution 
of  Masonry,  he  followed  the  example  of  his  fathers,  and 
was  made  a  Mason  in  Columbia  Lodge,  No.  25,  at  Glas- 
tonbury, Connecticut,  in  1809,  and  served  as  senior  war- 
den in  1810.  A  Mason  in  his  native  State,  he  was  a 
charter  member  in  the  organization  of  Franklin  Lodge» 
No.  14,  Troy,  Ohio,  January  10,  1812,  and  first  worshipful 
master  elected  in  the  Lodge;  and  prior  to  his  death,  Feb. 
25,  1870,  was,  at  the  extreme  age  of  nearly  eighty-two 


SIXTH  GENERATION.  l6l 

years,  the  last  -  surviving  charter  member.  He  was  a 
charter  member  of  Franklin  Chapter,  No.  24,  Franklin 
Council,  No.  14,  and  Coleman  Commandary,  No.  17.  The 
last  mentioned,  in  honor  of  his  Masonic  worth,  bears  his 
name. 

Greatly  interested  in  the  welfare  of  the  poor  and  the 
invalid.  Dr.  Coleman,  as  director  of  the  County  Infirmary, 
and  its  physician  for  six  years,  gave  much  time  and  thought 
to  better  their  condition,  and  submitted  the  plan  for  the 
present  building. 

Fond  of  agricultural  pursuits,  he  gave  much  of  his  time 
to  operations  on  his  farm,  and  retired  thither  during  the 
last  few  years  of  his  life. 

Dr.  Coleman  was  thrice  married:  first.  May  24,  181 3,  to 
EUenor  Stratton,  of  Glastonbury,  Connecticut,  who  died 
in  February,  1816;  second,  April,  17,  1817,  to  Julia  Ann 
Griffin  of  Granville,  Ohio,  who  died  September  28,  1820; 
third,  October  24,  1822,  to  Mary  Keifer,  who  was  born 
April  10,  1800,  at  Sharpsburg,  Maryland,  and  moved  with 
her  parents  to  Clark  County,  Ohio,  in  18 12.  She  survived 
her  husband  but  a  few  months,  and  died  the  same  year, 
December  5,  1870. 

By  the  last  marriage  he  reared  six  children:  Horace, 
(1078.)  Pamelia  Hale,  (1079.)  Augustus  Henry,  (1080.) 
Asa,  (1081.)  George  Edwin,  (1082.)  and  Julius  Adams, 
(1083.)  All  the  above-named  sons  served  in  the  Union 
ranks  in  the  war  of  the  Rebellion.  Of  these,  the  record  of 
Ohio  in  the  war  fitly  speaks  of  Colonel  A.  H.  Coleman, 
who  was  killed  at  Antietam,  as  of  the  best  and  bravest; 
while  Dr.  Horace  Coleman,  as  surgeon,  often  placed  on 
posts  of  honor  and  danger,  won  encomiums  in  the  field 
and  esteem  of  friends  at  home. 

Dr.  Coleman  was  consistent  and  faithful  in  the  perform- 
ance of  Christian  duty.  Prominent  in  the  establishing  of 
the  Protestant  Episcopal  Church  in  Troy,  he  was  elected 
first  senior  warden  of  Trinity  Church  in  1830,  and  annu- 
ally reelected  up  to  the  time  of  his  death,  for  the  uninter- 
rupted period  of  forty  years. 

Viewed  as  a  physican  and  surgeon,  his  many  commis- 
sions attest  the  appreciation  of  the  State.  As  a  mason, 
his  high  rank  and  the  appellation  of  "Coleman  Command- 
ery,  No.  17,"  by  the  Grand  Commandery  of  Knights  Tem- 
plar of  Ohio,  evidence  his  sterling  worth.  Known  as  a 
citizen,  the  suffrages  of  the  people  in  calling  him  to  the 


1 62  THE   HOLLISTER   FAMILY. 

Legislature,  the  bench,  and  many  other  honorable  and  im- 
portant positions,  vouch  for  his  well-earned  popularity. 

Dr.  Coleman  is  described,  in  his  latter  years,  as  above 
medium  height,  very  trim  and  well  proportioned,  and  as 
erect  as  in  his  youthful  manhood,  half  a  century  ago.  His 
bearing  was  dignified,  his  step  firm,  and  his  hair  silver- 
white  as  the  unstained  snow. 

He  lived  a  long,  active,  useful,  and  blameless  life,  and 
died  as  one  who,  wearied  of  his  labors,  "wraps  the  drapery 
of  his  couch  about  him,  and  lies  down  to  pleasant  dreams." 

(499.)    Pamela^  Coleman  (Hale). 
(Eunice^  Hollister,  ElishaJ  Thomas?  John?  John'). 

Pamela?  daughter  of  Eunice^  Hollister  and  Dr.  Asaph 
Coleman,  was  born  in  Glastonbury,  Conn.,  Nov.  27,  1792. 
She  married  Hezekiah  Hale  of  Glastonbury,  Conn.;  she 
still  resided  [1885],  as  a  widow  of  over  90  years,  in  the 
house  to  which  she  went  as  a  bride.  The  house  is  more 
than  120  years  old,  and  it  has  never  had  but  two  mis- 
tresses. The  house  was  built  for  Gideon  Hale  and  his 
wife,  Mary  White.  Fifty  years  afterward  their  son  Heze- 
kiah married  Pamela  Coleman  and  took  possession  of  the 
old  homestead.  In  her  advanced  age,  Mrs.  Hale  retained 
much  of  her  early  brightness;  she  was  fond  of  meeting  her 
friends,  and  delighted  them  with  her  sparkling  wit  and 
pleasantries.  She  died  from  the  shock  of  falling  from  a 
carriage,  Oct.  8,  1885. 

The  Old  Glastonbury  Homes. 

The  death  of  Mrs.  Hezekiah  Hale,  at  the  age  of  94, 
leaves  the  old  Hale  mansion  in  Glastonbury  without  a 
mistress  at  its  head  for  the  first  time  since  its  erection, 
one  hundred  and  twenty-three  years  ago. 

It  was  in  this  house,  then  just  built,  that  Gideon  Hale 
and  Mary  White,  who  were  married  December  23  1672, 
commenced  housekeeping,  and  here  their  youngest  son, 
Hezekiah,  brought  his  newly  married  wife,  Pamela,  daugh- 
ter of  Dr.  Asaph  Coleman,  November  17,  18 13.  The  elder 
Mrs.  Hale  died,  a  widow,  April  i,  1820,  and  Mrs.  Pamela 
Hale  died  Oct.  8,  1885,  having  survived  her  husband  fift>'

three  years.  For  one  hundred  and  twenty-three  years, 
lacking  a  little  over  two  months,  the  house  has  seen  but 
these  two  mistresses.  Gideon  Hale  and  Mary  White 
reared  a  family  of  five  sons  and  six  daughters,  under  the 
old  roof- tree,  all  of  whom,  except  two  daughters,  were 
married  and  left  the  old  place;  and  Hezekiah  Hale  and 
Pamela  Coleman  reared  a  family  of  three  sons  and  three 
daughters,  who,  with  one  exception,  went  into  the  world 
and  had  families  of  their  own ;  and  the  descendants  of  both, 
now  widely  scattered,  will  greatly  miss  the  cheery  greeting 
and  hospitable  welcome  of  the  last  mistress,  who  always 
made  a  visit  to  the  old  home  so  pleasant,  and  whose  fund 
of  anecdote  and  information  regarding  those  who  had  gone, 
always  so  willingly  given,  was  full  of  information  and  in- 
terest. The  funeral  of  Mrs.  Hale  took  place  on  Sunday 
afternoon,  and  was  largely  attended  by  sorrowing  relatives 
and  neighbors.  The  Rev.  Mr.  Betts,  of  the  Episcopal 
church,  officiated.  The  solemn  dignity  of  that  beautiful 
service  in  the  rural  cemetery,  under  the  bright  sun  and 
genial  October  air,  made  the  scene  very  impressive.        H. 

Mrs.  Pamela  Hale,  the  estimable  lady  here  alluded  to, 
was  an  aunt  of  the  late  Hon.  Gideon  Welles,  of  this  city. 
Mr.  Welles  held  in  high  esteem  the  venerable  lady,  and  he 
was  fond  of  the  old  homesteads  in  Glastonbury,  where  his 
father  lived  and  where  he  was  born.  He  used  to  relate 
many  pleasant  reminiscences  of  those  fine  homesteads,  and 
the  prominent  families  who  occupied  them. 

The  mother  of  Mary  White,  wife  of  Gideon  Hale,  was 
Ann  Hollister,  dau.  of  Joseph  Hollister,  and  niece  of  Thos. 
Hollister,  the  father  of  Dea.  Elisha.  The  father  of  Gideon 
Hale  was  Benjamin  Hale,  and  his  mother  was  Mary  Tal- 
cott.  The  father  of  Benjamin  was  Lieut.  Samuel  Hale,  the 
settler,  and  his  wife  was  Mary  Welles.  The  Hales  are 
supposed  to  have  come  from  Wales.

I70  THE   HOLLISTER   FAMILY. 

April  24,  1832,  Leverett  Joseph  Ives,  son  of  Joseph  Ives 
and  Sarah  Bishop,  both  born  in  New  Haven,  Conn. 

Leverett  Joseph  Ives  was  born  in  Westfield,  Mass.,  on 
the  19th  day  of  September,  1806.  He  was  a  son  of  Joseph 
Ives  and  Sarah  Bishop,  both  natives  of  New  Haven,  Conn. 
His  paternal  ancestor,  William  Ives,  likewise  recorded 
"Eves/*  came  it  is  supposed  from  England  previous  to 
1639.  [He  came  probably  to  Boston.  1635,  aged  28,  in 
the  True  Love,  from  London.]  He  settled  in  New  Haven, 
and  was  one  of  the  63  original  free  planters  who  upon  the 
4th  day  of  June,  1639,  signed  the  "Fundamental  Agree- 
ment of  Quinnipiack,"  in,  as  tradition  states,  the  barn  of 
Mr.  Robert  Newman. 

Joseph  Ives,  son  of  William,  married,  Jan.  2,  1673,  Mar>' 
Yale,  born  April  16,  1650,  dau.  of  Thomas  Yale,  Esq.,  and 
Mary  Turner  of  New  Haven.  Mary  Turner  was  a  daugh- 
ter of  Capt.  Nathaniel  Turner.  He,  with  Mr.  Thomas 
Gregson  of  New  Haven,  were  of  that  "Godly  Company" 
who  perished  in  the  Phantom  Ship,  and  both  were  direct 
ancestors  of  Leverett  Joseph  Ives. 

Gov.  Elihu  Yale,  in  honor  of  whom,  through  his  munifi- 
cent donations,  Yale  College  received  its  name,  was  like- 
wise a  son  of  Thomas  Yale,  Esq.,  and  brother  to  Mary 
(Yale)  Ives. 

Ensign  and  Dea.  Samuel  Ives,  son  of  Joseph  Ives 
and  Mary  Yale,  was  born  in  New  Haven,  Nov.  6,  1677. 
He  died  there  Nov.  24,  1726,  aged  49.  He  was  one  of  the 
first  two  deacons  of  the  First  Society  Church  of  New 
Haven.  He  married,  Jan.  3,  1706,  Ruth  Atwater,  bom 
Dec.  31,  1688,  daughter  of  Jonathan  Atwater  and  Ruth 
Peck  of  New  Haven.  Ruth  Peck  was  a  granddaughter  of 
the  Rev.  Jeremiah  Peck,  who  in  1660  was  established  ac- 
cording to  an  act  of  the  Court,  in  the  Hopkins  Collegiate 
Grammer  School  of  New  Haven,  and  there  taught  the  lan- 
guages and  sciences. 

Capt.  Jonathan  Ives,  son  of  Deacon  Samuel  Ives  and 
Ruth  Atwater,  was  born  in  New  Haven,  March  14,  1716, 


SIXTH   GENERATION.  17I 

"which  is  perhaps  1716-17."  He  married,  Feb.  19,  1737-38, 
Thankful  Cooper,  daughter  of  Joseph  Cooper  of  New 
Haven.  She  was  born,  probably,  April  11,  1721.  Capt 
Jonathan  Ives  had  four  sons,  all  of  whom  served  faithfully 
in  the  Revolutionary  war. 

Jeremiah  Ives,  son  of  Capt.  Jonathan  Ives  and  Thankful 
Cooper  was  born  in  New  Haven,  Nov.  19,  1738.  He  mar- 
ried, June  7,  1768,  Hannah  Basset,  born  Dec.  26,  1739, 
daughter  of  Abraham  Bassett  of  New  Haven,  and  Mehit- 
able  Street  of  Wallingford.  [Jeremiah  Ives  and  Hannah 
Bassett  were  married  at  what  is  now  North  Haven.  The 
Rev.  Dr.  Jonathan  Trumbull,  Historian  of  Connecticut, 
performed  the  ceremony]. 

Joseph  Ives,  son  of  Jeremiah  Ives  and  Hannah  Bassett 
was  born  in  New  Haven,  Feb.  2,  1771.  He  married  Sarah 
Bishop,  born  Feb.  8,  1777.  She  was  a  daughter  of  Isaac 
Bishop  and  Sarah  Macomber  of  New  Haven.  Joseph 
Ives  and  Sarah  Bishop,  as  already  stated,  were  the  parents 
of  Leverett  Joseph  Ives. 

On  the  24th  of  April,  1832,  he  married  in  Perrysburg, 
Cattaraugus  Co.,  N.Y.,  Fidelia  Elvira  Field,  born  April  31, 
1805,  at  Grass  Hill,  Gill,  Mass.  They  settled  in  the  ad- 
joining town  of  Lodi.  About  1833,  Mr.  Ives  removed  to 
Hamilton,  Canada  West.  In  the  spring  of  1837,  owing  to 
the  occurrence  of  the  Canada  rebellion,  being  unwilling  to 
swear  allegiance  to  the  British  Crown,  he  removed  to 
Cleveland,  Ohio,  and  in  the  following  autumn  became  a 
resident  of  Akron,  Ohio,  where  he  lived  twenty-three  years. 
Acquiring  there  prominence  as  a  druggist,  he  identified 
himself  largely  in  the  intersts  of  the  town,  was  energetic  in 
promoting  its  early  growth,  and  may  be  truly  styled  one 
of  its  poineers.  In  i860,  he  removed  to  Chicago,  Illinois. 
After  remaining  in  the  west  a  number  of  years,  he  re- 
turned east,  and  died  at  his  residence  in  East  Orange,  N.Y., 
on  Sept.  20,  1876,  aged  70  years  and  i  day.  He  was  hon- 
est and  upright  in  his  dealings  with  men,  a  good  citizen, 
a  kindly  friend  and  neighbor,  his  manners  were  pleasing 


172  THE   HOLLISTER   FAMILY. 

and  full  of  hospitality.  In  politics  he  originally  belonged 
to  the  School  of  Whigs.  In  1848  he  voted  the  Republi- 
can ticket  and  adhered  thereafter  firmly  to  the  Antislaverj'^ 
party.  He  gave  to  Old  John  Brown,  the  martyr,  the  rifle 
he  took  to  Kansas. 

Prominent  in  the  early  history  of  Akron  was  the  wife  of 
the  subject  of  this  sketch,  Fidelia  Elvira  Ives,  daughter  of 
Rodolphus  Wright  Field  and  Hannah  Dwight  HoUister 
of  Grass  Hill,  Gill,  Mass.  She  traces  her  lineage  through 
a  number  of  the  original  settlers  of  New  England,  among 
whom  may  be  mentioned  Samuel  WVight  of  Springfield, 
Mass.,  Elder  John  Strong  of  Northampton,  Mass.,  Thomas 
Ford  of  Dorchester,  Mass.,  Lieut.  John  Hollister  and  Rich- 
ard Treat  both  of  Wethersfield,  Ct.,  and  Zachariah  Field 
of  Northampton,  Mass.,  grandson  of  John  Field  of  Eng- 
land, the  astronomer,  who  in  1556  wrote  the  first  astro- 
nomical work  published  in  England,  based  upon  the  tables 
of  the  Copernican  system.  Through  it  he  has  become 
known  to  history  as  the  "Proto  Copernican"  of  England. 

Like  her  ancestors,  Fidelia  E.  Ives  possessed  energy, 
activity,  and  strength  of  character.  Through  all  the  years 
of  her  residence  in  Akron  her  gentleness  of  spirit  and  large 
benevolence  secured  her  many  friends. — "Hist,  of  Summit

at  Brown  University,  Providence,  R.I.,  in  the 
class  of  1867,  and  later  in  medicine  at  the  uni- 
versity of  Penn.  in  1 88 1.  In  1 88 1,  he  was  ap- 
pointed tutor  to  President  Garfield's  two 
eldest  sons  and  prepared  them  for  Williams 
College.  He  was  a  member  of  the  President's 
family  throughout  the  sad  scenes  consequent 
to  the  assassination  of  Gen.  Garfield.  In  the 
autumn  of  1881,  Dr.  Hawkes  was  appointed 
acting  assistant-surgeon  in  the  army,  and  as- 
signed to  duty  at  Washington,  D.C.,  as  assist- 
ant to  Dr.  Norris. 

(558.)    Joseph^  HoUister. 
(Joseph?  Joseph*  Joseph?  John?  John'). 

Josephf  son  of  Joseph^  Hollister  and  Rebecca  Treat, 
was  born  in  Glastonbury,  Conn.,  Aug.  26,  1752,  O.S. 
Early  in  life  he  began  to  exhibit  an  energy,  ability,  and 
integrity  which  soon  gave  him  the  position  of  an  acknowl- 
edged leader  in  all  matters  of  importance  in  his  neigh- 
borhood. He  is  described  as  a  man  of  a  little  above  the 
medium  height,  with  light  complexion,  brown  hair,  very 
handsome  blue  eyes,  a  firm,  well-built  frame,  with  an  erect, 
and  soldierly  carriage,  and  a  natural  dignity  of  manner 
tempered  by  a  marked  sweetness  of  disposition.  It  is  not 
surprising  that  such  a  man  should  have  sought  and  won 
the  heart  of  Patience  Hollibter,  the  graceful  and  accom- 
plished daughter  of  one  of  the  leading  families,  socially, 


176  THE   HOLLISTEK   FAMILY. 

of  the  colony,  and  the  acknowledged  belle  of  Glastonbury. 

But  if  the  daughter  was  won,  her  parents  were  not. 
They  were  proud  as  well  as  wealthy,  and  possibly  looked 
beyond  the  narrow  bounds  of  the  colony  for  a  husband 
worthy  of  their  first  born. 

While  the  issue  between  the  young  man  and  the  pru- 
dent parents  of  his  fair  lady  was  yet  doubtful,  the  clarion 
voice  of  duty  called  young  Hollister  to  a  greater  strife. 
The  news  from  Lexington  reached  Glastonbury,  and  for- 
getting everything  but  Country,  the  young  man  started  for 
the  seat  of  war,  reaching  Cambridge  the  day  after  the 
battle  of  Bunker  Hill.  Long  after^vards  he  used  to  relate 
how  he  stood  as  a  sentinel  on  Boston  Neck  in  a  storm 
when  the  rain  fell  in  torrents,  and  the  wind  blew  so  hard 
that  he  could  not  keep  his  feet,  and  was  only  kept  from 
being  blown  off  into  the  harbor,  by  holding  on  to  a  small 
apple  tree.  When  relieved  he  was  wet  from  head  to  foot 
and  so  chilled  that  he  could  hardly  get  into  camp.  When 
he  reached  camp  he  drew  his  rations  for  the  day,  which 
included  a  half-pint  of  rum,  but  not  having  anything  to 
hold  the  rum  he  drank  it  off  at  once,  with  no  other  appar- 
ent effect  than  a  return  of  genial  warmth  and  comfortable 
feeling. 

He  remained  in  that  vicinity  until  after  the  Evacuation 
of  Boston,  in  March,  1776.  We  next  hear  of  him  as  a 
sergeant  in  a  Glastonbury  Company  under  Col.  Talcott 
and  Gen.  Israel  Putnam,  at  White  Plains  and  along  the 
neutral  ground  on  the  Hudson  River  above  New  York. 
He  was  present  at  the  surrender  of  Burgoyne. 

While  in  command  of  a  guard  at  Red  Hook  he  sur- 
prised and  captured  a  small  British  sloop,  the  crew  of 
which  had  run  her  into  a  creek  and  gone  ashore  to  plunder, 
and  had  been  left  aground  by  the  ebb  of  the  tide  so  that 
they  could  not  get  out.  The  British  outnumbered  Hoi- 
lister's  men  two  to  one,  but  the  patriots  kept  up  such  an 
incessant  firing  upon  the  vessel  that  she  was  compelled  to 
surrender.     On  boarding  her,  Hollister  saw  the  lieutenant

commanding  throw  a  package  overboard  from  the  opposite 
side  of  the  vessel.  This,  however,  the  young  sergeant 
managed  to  recover,  and  personally  bore  it  and  his  prison- 
ers in  triu/nph  to  the  camp.  Upon  examining  the  pack- 
age. Col.  Talcott  ordered  Sergeant  HoUister  to  take  it  to 
Gen.  Putnam,  who  immediately  dispatched  a  messenger 
with  it  to  Gen.  Washington.  It  proved  to  be  a  dispatch 
from  Gen.  Burgoyne  to  Sir  Henry  Clinton,  the  intercep- 
tion of  which  gave  valuable  information  to  the  commander- 
in-chief.  Shortly  after  this  he  was  ill  with  what  was  known 
as  the  camp  distemper,  and  as  a  number  of  prisoners  were 
about  to  be  sent  across  the  country  to  Hartford,  his  term 
of  enlistment  having  nearly  expired,  he  applied  to  the 
colonel  to  be  detailed  for  that  duty.  The  colonel  referred 
him  to  Gen.  Putnam  who,  after  he  had  stated  his  case  and 
wishes,  asked  him,  if  he  was  not  the  officer  who  had  cap- 
tured so  many  prisoners  and  that  important  paper,  and  on 
being  answered  in  the  affirmative,  gave  him  the  character- 
istic reply,  that  "  they  could  not  spare  such  men.  That 
they  only  sent  on  such  duty  d — n  cowards  who  were  good 
for  nothing  else."  But  as  Hollister  was  going  away,  both 
disappointed  and  pleased  at  the  answer,  some  one  hinted 
that  there  was  "  a  lady  in  the  case,"  and  the  general  gener- 
ously changed  his  mind,  recalled  his  order  and  gave  the 
young  man  the  detail.  He  returned  to  Glastonbury,  proba- 
blyearly  in  1778.  This  proved  to  be  his  last  service  in  the 
army,  for  his  health  gave  way  under  the  hardships  he  had 
undergone,  and  he  found  himself  unfit  for  further  military 
duty.  His  health  continued  precarious  for  about  five 
years,  when,  after  a  long  seige  of  inflammatory  rheuma- 
tism, he  seemed  suddenly  to  become  a  new  man.  For 
more  than  fifty  years  following  he  never  once  required  a 
doctor.  At  sixty-five,  he  was  as  straight  as  an  arrow  and 
could  do  as  much  as  any  one  of  his  eight  sons,  and  he 
lived  to  the  ripe  age  of  ninety-six. 

Sergeant    Hollister*s   exploits    were    long   remembered 
along  the  Hudson,  and  forty-five  years  later  Cooper  gave 


178  THE   HOLLISTER    FAMILY. 

his  name  to  one  of  the  characters  in  the  "  Spy."  It  may 
be  needless  to  add  that  Cooper  did  not  pretend  to  depict 
the  man.  Two  men  could  hardly  be  found  more  unlike 
than  the  **  Sergeant  Hollister"  of  romance  and  Sergeant 
Joseph  Hollister  himself  Moreover,  it  has  been  noted 
that  nearly  every  Hollister  of  that  day  belonged  to  the 
higher  ranks  of  New  England  Society. 

But  even  a  better  prize  than  fame  rewarded  young  Hol- 
lister s  success  in  war,  for  he  was  married  to  the  lady  of 
his  choice.  Patience  Hollister,  Nov.  20,  1778.  She  was  a 
daughter  of  Nathaniel^  Hollister  (Gideon*  Thomas?  Johnf 
John'),  and  was  born  in  Glastonbury,  March  21,  1755;  she 
died  at  Salisbury,  Conn.,  April  27,  or  May  21,  1826. 

In  April,  1795,  Joseph  Hollister  removed  to  Sharon, 
Conn.,  where  he  rented  for  several  years  a  farm  of  his 
friend  Gov.  John  Cotton  Smith.  In  company  with  his  son 
Jesse,  he  established  quite  an  extensive  hat  factory.  He 
bought  a  farm  in  Sharon  Valley  in  1802,  but  sold  it  in 
1804,  and  in  1805  removed  to  Salisbury,  Conn.,  where  he 
died,  Aug.  21,  1848. 

One  who  knew  him  in  his  later  years  says,  "he  pos- 
sessed a  strong  will,  but  a  mild,  kind  disposition — so  much 
so,  indeed,  that  he  was  for  a  great  part  of  his  life  paying 
the  debts  of  others  to  whose  paper  he  had  put  his  name." 
An  obituary  in  the  Hartford  "Times"  shortly  after  his 
death  concludes  as  follows:  "he  professed  attachment  to 
Christ  and  his  cause,  in  the  Congregational  Church,  while 
he  lived  in  Glastonbury.  His  religious  feelings  survived 
the  wreck  of  body  and  mind  consequent  upon  extreme  old 
age,  and  his  end  was  peace.  He  was  marked  for  the  so- 
briety and  industry  of  his  habits,  and  a  numerous  family, 
whom  he  reared  and  trained  to  posts  of  usefulness  will 
long  hold  him  in  grateful  remembrance.  Of  the  following 
children  of  Joseph  Hollister  the  last  three  were  born  in 
Sharon,  the  others  in  Glastonbury.     Children:

,  was   born   July   28,    1776.     She   married 

John  Storrs  of  Trenton,  N.Y.,  June  16,  1795.  She  was 
then  of  Dalton,  Mass.     She  died  Feb.  17,  1862. 

John  Storrs  was  the  eldest  son  of  Rev.  John  and  Han- 
nah Moore  Storrs,  and  was  born  on  Long  Island  about 
1773.  He  went  to  Trenton,  N.Y.,  in  1794,  and  spent  his 
life  there.     He  died  April  23,  18 — . 

The  following  notice  appeared  in  the  local  paper  at  the 
time  of  his  death: 

Although  comment  on  a  character  so  universally  known, 


SIXTH   GENERATION.  IQI 

honored  and  respected  is  superfluous,  still  justice  demands 
a  passing  tribute  to  his  venerated  memory. 

Judge  Storrs  was  born  on  Long  Island,  and  remained 
there  until  his  seventeenth  year;  then  went  to  Mansfield, 
Conn.,  where  he  tarried  for  four  years;  then  came  to  this 
town  when  it  was  an  entire  wilderness,  in  the  year  1794, 
thus  being  one  of  the  earliest  pioneers  of  this  Country. 
He  came  here  a  young  man  and  entirely  unknown,  and 
without  any  recomendation  but  that  of  a  noble  bearing. 
He  was  frank,  upright,  and  of  unblemished  morals,  which 
have  ever  been  preserved  without  a  stain. 

Not  many  weeks,  it  might  be  said  dayc,  elapsed  ere 
entire  confidence  was  reposed  in  him;  and  never  has  cause 
existed — such  is  the  unhesitating  assertion  of  those  who 
have  known  him  intimately  for  upward  of  fifty  years — to 
withdraw  for  a  moment  that  entire  trust  in  his  strict  integ- 
rity and  virtue. 

He  held  the  office  of  supervisor  of  the  town  for  an  un- 
precedented number  of  years  in  succession.  He  was  our 
magistrate  for  almost  a  like  series  of  years,  and  was  seated 
on  the  bench  as  Judge  of  Common  Pleas  for  a  long  period 
of  time.  His  decisions  in  both  capacities  were  always 
marked  by  the  soundest  judgment,  unhesitating  imparti- 
ality and  perfect  justice. 

For  seven  years  Mr.  Storrs  represented  this  county  in 
the  Assembly  of  this  State. 

He  was  truly  kind  and  courteous,  ready  to  impart  coun- 
sel, to  restore  order  and  peace.  Whenever  any  difficulty 
arose  in  the  neighborhood  it  was  always  at  once  decided 
to  "go  to  Judge  Storrs"  for  aid  and  advice.  His  character 
was  truly  adorned  by  those  eminent  virtues  which  charac- 
terize a  Christian. 

His  house  was  the  seat  of  hospitality,  and  was  ever  open 
to  the  stranger,  the  sick,  and  the  destitute,  who  never  de- 
parted therefrom  with  wants  un.supplied. 

He  was  social  in  his  nature,  easy  of  access,  gifted  with  a 
sound  mind,  which  his  love  of  reading  had  stored  with  wis- 
dom, much  knowledge,  and  a  fund  of  anecdote  which  ren- 
dered his  company  truly  attractive. 

Firm  in  his  political  views,  he  still  retained  the  respect 
of  all ;  and  when  the  news  of  his  death  was  announced  it 
spread  a  universal  gloom  around  the  village  and  through 
out  the  town.

typhoid  fever.  A  stranger,  sick  with  that  disease,  came  to 
Trenton,  but  no  one  would  receive  him,  so  Mr.  Hollister 
hired  a  room  and  took  care  of  him  until  his  recovery,  when 
he  was  taken  with  the  same  disease,  and  died  early  in  life. 
He  was  probably  a  member  of  the  Presbyterian  Church.

(612.)    Richard  Davis^  Hollister. 

(Asahel?  Ellshaf  Samuel?  Stephen?  John'). 

Richard  Davis?  son  of  Asahel^  Hollister  and  Betsy  Dun- 
ham, was  born  in  Sharon,  Litchfield  Co.,  Conn.,  Jan.  26, 
1801.  He  went  to  Ohio  with  his  parents  in  1816,  the  fam- 
ily settling  near  Belpre  and  Marietta.  Richard*s  residence 
was  at  Warren,  Washington  Co.,  Ohio,  on  the  banks  of  the 
Ohio  River,  three  miles  below  Marietta,  where  he  owned 
a  fine  farm  of  216  acres.  He  was  a  fine  scholar  and  taught 
school  for  twenty  consecutive  winters  after  his  marriage. 
He  held  the  office  of  Township  Clerk  for  many  years,  and 
was  an  honored  and  respected  citizen  during  his  whole  life. 
He  died  Mar.  15,  1868,  leaving  quite  a  handsome  property. 
He  married  Sophia  B.  Dana  of  Belpre,  Ohio,  Oct.  22,  1832. 
She  was  born  at  Belpre,  Sept.  24,  18 14,  and  is  a  daughter 
of  the  late  Edmund  B.  Dana  and  Jerusha  Buck.  Edmund 
B.  Dana  was  a  son  of  Capt.  William  Dana  of  Revolution- 
ary fame.  Capt.  Dana  of  Amherst,  Mass.,  married  Mary 
Bancroft  of  Boston,  Mass.,  and  soon  after  his  marriage  em- 
igrated to  Ohio,  about  1788,  and  settled  in  Belpre,  then  a 
wilderness.  They  lived  in  the  garrison  two  years  and 
fought  the  Indians  through  port-holes,  and  endured  all  the 
hardships  and  privations  incident  to  pioneer  life.     After 


196  THE   HOLLISTER   FAMILY. 

peace  was  declared  after  the  war  of  18 12,  they  took  up 
land  and  made  a  farm.  The  home  of  Edmurfti  B.  Dana 
was  in  Belpre,  opposite  Blennerhasset  Island.  It  was  a 
beautiful  home  and  is  still  in  possession  of  the  Dana  fam- 
ily. He  was  a  thorough  business  man  and  dealt  largely 
in  produce,  loading  three  or  four  boats  every  fall  which  he 
took  to  New  Orleans,  and  rode  home  horseback,  often  with 
thousands  of  dollars  about  him.  He  also  dealt  in  cattle 
which  he  drove  to  Baltimore,  Md.,  as  early  as  18 12.  He 
was  once  captured  by  the  British,  being  suspected  as  a 
spy.  He  was  captain  of  a  ship  built  at  Marietta,  O.,  in 
181 1,  and  sailed  by  way  of  New  Orleans  to  Cuba,  loaded  it 
with  coffee  and  took  it  to  New  York,  where  he  sold  ship 
and  cargo.  He  is  said  to  have  brought  more  money  into 
his  town  than  any  other  man  living  there.  He  was  very 
benevolent,  kind,  and  good  to  all.  He  once  bought  a  poor 
slave  for  six  hundred  dollars  and  gave  him  his  liberty. 
Edmund  B.  Dana  was  born  in  Amherst,  Mass.,  went  with 
his  parents  to  Ohio  in  1788  and  married,  in  1810,  Jerusha 
Buck,  daughter  of  Capt  William  Buck  of  Bridgeport, 
Conn. 

Mrs.  Jerusha  Dana  died  in  Gallipolis,  O.,  Jan.  22,  1880. 
She  was  born  in  Brdgeport,  Conn.,  in  1788,  and  went 
to  Ohio  with  her  parents  when  a  child  to  what  was  then  a 
wilderness,  settling  at  Newport,  above  Marietta,  where  she 
married  Edmund  B.  Dana.  Mrs.  Dana  passed  through  an 
eventful  life,  and  her  reminiscences  were  very  interesting. 
She  was  remarkable  for  kindness  and  hospitality,  for  pur- 
ity of  heart,  energy  of  character,  and  that  wonderful  vital- 
ity of  organization  which  for  many  years  sustained  a  very 
frail  body.  Her  last  thoughts  were  of  others,  and  she  is 
remembered  by  a  large  circle  of  friends  in  Marietta  and 
vicinity  as  one  of  the  loveliest  and  most  beautiful  of  old 
ladies,  one  of  the  old  pioneer  women  who  have  nearly  all 
passed  away,  and  the  last  of  the  pioneer  stock  of  that 
name. 

Mrs.  Sophia  B.  (Dana)  Hollister  now  (1886)  resides  at

Obituary. 

Died,  in  Dunham  township,  Nov.  14,  1885,  Jonathan 
Judson  Hollister,  in  the  76th  year  of  his  age.  Mr.  Hol- 
lister was  born  in  Sharon,  Conn.,  and  came  to  Ohio  in 
18 16,  when  he  was  less  than  six  years  old.  He  began  to 
take  an  interest  in  books  at  an  early  period,  and  acquired 
the  ability  to  teach  school  while  quite  young.  He  had  a 
literary  taste  and  loved  to  read  poetry,  history,  and  phi- 
losophy. Through  most  of  his  life  he  took  an  active  inter- 
est in  politics  and  religion,  and  was  always  willing  to  listen 
to  any  theory  or  doctrine  that  promised  good  to  the  race. 
He  had  warm  sympathies  for  humanity,  so  it  was  not  diffi- 
cult for  him  to  believe  that  God  is  the  Father  of  all,  and 
friend  of  all,  and  that  Jesus  shall  prove  himself  the  Savior 
of  all.  He  had  been,  for  many  years  a  member  of  the 
First  Universalist  Church,  in  Belpre,  and  always  took  a 
warm  interest  in  its  prosperity.  For  two  terms  he  served 
his  country,  and  well  served  it,  as  commissioner.  He  had 
the  ability  and  disposition  faithfully  to  fulfill  his  trust. 
For  the  last  few  years  age  and  infirmities  had  kept  him  at

home  most  of  the  time,  but  those  years  had  been  full  of 
peace,  serenity,  and  hope.  Suddenly  God's  messenger 
came  and  took  him  across  the  river,  without  sickness, 
without  pain,  he  passed  ta  the  shining  shore.  Peacefully, 
patiently,  doubtless  he  awaits  the  coming  of  kindred,  and 
friends.  The  thought  of  him  is  pleasant.  His  memory  is 
blessed.  j.  w.  M.

(617.)    Whiting  Bierce^  HoUister. 

(Asahel?  Elisha,^  Samuel?  Stephen?  John'). 

Whiting  Bierce?  son  of  Asahel^  Hollister  and  Betsey 
Dunham,  was  born  in  Sharon,  Conn.,  May  i,  181 5.  On 
May  I,  18 16,  his  father  left  Sharon  for  Ohio,  taking  his 
family  and  household  goods  in  a  two-horse  wagon.  He 
reached  Marietta,  O.,  June  2,  and  bought  land  12  miles 
from  that  place,  where  he  settled.  Whiting  B.  lived  on 
the  farm  until  he  was  20  years  of  age,  when  he  went  to 
work  for  himself  on  a  farm  in  the  same  county,  at  ten  dol- 
lars a  month.  The  following  winter  he  was  solicited  to 
take  a  school  in  the  neighborhood,  and  notwithstanding 
serious  misgivings  as  to  his  fitness,  he  applied  to  the  coun- 
ty school-commissioners  for  an  examination,  and,  unex- 
pectedly to  himself,  obtained  a  certificate  of  qualification 
to  teach  certain  branches  therein  mentioned.  He  taught 
a  little  country  school  that  winter,  and  in  the  spring  re- 
turned to  his  farm  work  for  the  same  man  as  the  summer 
before.  He  taught  again  the  next  winter,  and  the  spring 
following  began  the  trade  of  grindstone  cutting,  there 
being  extensive  quarries  in  that  county  of  good  grindstone 
grit,  and  the  business  was  an  extensive  industry  at  that 
time.  He  worked  at  his  trade  summers  and  taught  school 
winters  until  1845,  when  he  moved,  in  the  spring  of  that 
year,  to  Harmar,  Ohio,  and,  buying  a  stock  of  Vermont 
marble,  began  the  gravestone  or  marble  business,  which  he 
has  since  followed. 

He  has  been  married  twice;  first  to  Amanda  Bucking- 
ham Burroughs,  daughter  of  Jarvis  and  Susan  Burroughs, 
born  Aug.  30,  1822,  of  Belpre,  Ohio,  May  i,  1844;  she 
died  in  Harmar,  Ohio,  Jan.  22,  1852,  leaving  two  children.

Pplly  Hart,  Dec.  31,  1815.  She  was  a  daughter  of  Samuel 
Hart  of  Hartville,  Berkshire  Co.,  Mass.,  and  was  born 
Sept.,  1795.  She  died  Aug.  26,  1869.  John  Hall  HolHs- 
ter died  in  Perry,  N.Y.,  June  30,  1880. 

He  removed  from  New  Marlborough  to  Ferry,  March  i, 
1 8 16,  where  he  bought  a  small  farm,  cleared  a  part  of  it  in 
the  woods,  and  built  a  slab -house,  the  attic  of  which  was 
a  favorite  retreat  for  his  young  wife  from  panthers,  bears, 
etc.;  she  drawing  the  stairway  up  after  her.     The  house

had  a  stone  chimney  with  a  large  fireplace;  home-made 
stools  for  chairs,  and  a  chest  for  a  table.  Both  worked 
hard,  and  they  often  met  with  discouraging  trials,  but 
industry,  perseverance,  and  grit  brought  them  through. 
Mr.  HoUister  occasionally  went  to  Batavia,  22  miles,  and 
Canandaigua,  43  miles,  to  trade.  On  one  occasion,  return- 
ing home  from  Canandaigua  with  his  ox-team,  he  came  on 
a  very  dark  and  rainy  midnight,  to  the  Genesee  River^ 
which  was  greatly  swollen  by  a  freshet,  the  water  and  ice 
running  nearly  even  with  the  bridge.  The  oxen  hesitated, 
but  he  went  before  and  led  them  across  the  trembling 
bridge.  He  had  barely  reached  the  other  side  when  the 
bridge  was  swept  away.  The  following  is  an  example  of 
his  pluck  and  perseverance:  he  was  at  the  place  of  one  of 
his  neighbors,  a  mile  and  a-quarter  away,  in  the  barn  were 
some  large  sacks  of  wheat,  holding  about  four  bushels, 
Mr.  Hollister  picked  up  one  of  them,  and  shouldered  it. 
The  owner  seeing  it  said  "if  you  will  carry  that  home 
without  taking  the  sack  off  your  shoulder,  you  may  have 
the  wheat."  Hollister  said  he  would  do  it,  and  called 
upon  some  neighbors  present  to  witness  the  agreement. 
They  laughed  and  said  he  couldn't  do  it,  but  he  started  off 
through  the  woods,  most  of  the  way  being  over  soft 
ground.  He  succeeded  in  reaching  home,  but  was  utterly 
exhausted,  and  fell  into  the  doorway  with  a  purple  face. 
After  all,  his  neighbor  refused  to  stand  by  his  agreement, 
and  demanded  half-price  for  his  wheat,  $1.25  per  bushel, 
which  Hollister  paid  rather  than  have  trouble  with  a 
neighbor.  Besides  working  his  farm  he  also  worked  at 
his  trade  as  stone  mason.  He  was  a  member  of  the 
Society  of  Universalists  in  Perry,  and  was  a  regular  attend- 
ant at  church,  even  long  after  his  hearing  became  im- 
paired. In  1855,  a  traveling  quack  doctor  operated  on  his 
ears  and  succeeded  in  not  only  destroying  what  hearing 
he  had  left,  but  also  came  near  taking  his  life  as  well. 
From  that  time  he  never  heard  the  sound  of  the  human 
voice  again.     The  last  ten  years  of  his  life  he  had  pro-

266  THE   HOLLISTER    FAMILY, 

Tarbox,  and  was  born  in  Hebron,  Conn.,  Sept.  13.  1808. 
John  Fletcher  Hollister  died  in  Piano,  Illinois,  Feb.  21 
1882.  He,  like  his  brother  Alpheus,  was  greatly  interested 
in  the  early  history  of  the  family,  and  spent  much  time 
in  collecting  information  relating  to  the  subject.  After 
his  death,  his  papers  were  placed  at  the  disposal  of  the 
compiler  of  this  work,  and  he  takes  pleasure  in  acknowl- 
edging his  obligations  for  the  valuable  information  derived 
from  them. 

He  left  Glastonbury,  when  six  years  of  age,  in  company 
with  his  father,  who  settled  in  the  then  wilderness  of 
Wayne  Co.,  Pennsylvania.  This  place  grew  into  what  is 
now  known  as  HoUisterville — a  place  of  fine  water-power, 
still  the  possession  of  the  Hollisters. 

He  removed  to  Illinois  and  settled  on  the  present  site 
of  Piano,  with  his  brother-in-law,  Marcus  Steward,  in  1838. 

He  was  a  man  of  great  mechanical  genius.  He  was 
identified  with  the  Marsh  Harvester  almost  from  its  incep- 
tion, in  i860.  Last  year,  when  the  Piano  Manufacturing 
Co.  started,  he  was  given  charge  of  the  construction  of  the 
sample  machine  upon  which  he  worked  with  unremitting 
application,  giving  the  machine  a  perfection  which  has 
made  it  second  to  none.  In  1865,  he  was  caught  in  the 
machinery  of  Steward's  mill,  had  several  bones  broken, 
and  received  other  injuries.  This  accident,  together  with 
a  naturally  delicate  constitution,  doubtless  contributed 
much  to  shorten  his  days. 

Mr.  Hollisters  early  advantages  for  gaining  an  educa- 
tion were  small,  yet  by  close  application,  and  a  love  of 
knowledge,  he  gained  the  reputation  of  being  an  exact 
scholar  in  all  the  common  branches,  and  advanced  his 
thoughts  far  into  subjects  of  deep  scientific  moment.  He 
was  particularly  interested  in  all  questions  relating  to  the 
amelioration  of  society.  He  was  a  strong  advocate  of 
temperance,  unalterably  opposed  to  the  subjection  of 
women,  the  uncompromising  foe  of  all  forms  of  sensuality, 
and  of  the  follies  of  dress  and  manners.     He  had  a  great 


SEVENTH   GENERATION.  267 

aversion  to  humbugs  and  pretenders.  He  was  positive  in 
his  convictions,  fearless  in  expressing  them,  and  scrupu- 
lous in  carrying  them  into  effect 

He  had  two  children  who  died  in  infancy.

(1023.)     Eleanor  Drake^  Hollister  (Case). 
(Pierpontf  Josiah?  Thomasf  Thomas?  Johnf  John'). 

Eleanor  Drake?  daughter  of  Pierpont^  Hollister  and 
Martha  Wallace,  was  born  in  Manchester,  Conn.,  Dec.  14, 
181 1 ;  married  Ashbel  Wesley  Case,  Nov.  2T,  1833,  ^^^ 
died  in  Waterloo,  la.,  Jan.  29,  1856.  She  was  of  medium 
hight,  slender,  had  light  complexion,  light  brown  hair,  blue 
eyes,  and  was  of  a  mild  and  gentle  disposition.  She  was 
a  consistent  member  of  the  M.-E.  church,  and  was  univer- 
sally beloved  by  all  who  knew  her.  She  died  of  consump- 
tion a  few  weeks  after  settling  in  her  new  home  in  Iowa, 
her  death  being  undoubtedly  hastened  by  the  hardships  of 
a  severe  winter  on  the  frontier. 

Ashbel  Wesley  Case,  husband  of  Eleanor  D.  Hollister, 
was  a  son  of  Ashbel  Case  and  Dolly  Spencer,  and  was 
born  in  Manchester,  Conn.,  June  23,  1806;  was  a  farmer 
in  Manchester,  but  taught  school  winters  for  several  years. 
He  held  the  office  of  select-man,  and  other  town  offices, 
and  was  a  candidate  for  the  legislature,  but  was  defeated 
on  account  of  his  opposition  to  the  liquor  license.  In  1854, 
he  removed  with  his  family  to  Rockton,  111.,  where  he 
engaged  for  a  short  time,  in  company  with  two  of  his 
brothers-in-law  and  others,  in  the  paper-manufacturing 
business.     The  business  not  proving  successful,  he  sold  out

his  interest  and  removed  in  1855,  to  Waterloo,  la.,  where 
he  bought  several  hundred  acres  of  land,  and  settled.  He 
contracted  a  severe  cold  soon  after  he  settled  in  Waterloo, 
which  resulted  in  pneumonia,  from  which  he  never  recov- 
ered, his  death  occurring  Sept.  26,  1856.  He  was  an  active 
and  prominent  member  of  the  Methodist-Episcopal  church 
in  Manchester  and  Rockton,  and  interested  in  all  good 
works.  He  was  a  man  of  superior  intelligence,  and  of  good 
education,  and  was  in  the  habit  of  spending  much  of  his 
leisure  time  in  study.  He  was  tall,  slender,  had  black  hair 
and  eyes,  a  dignified  manner,  and  a  kind  and  peaceful  dis- 
position. 

His  ancestors  were:  Richard*  Case,  who  was  a  freeman 
of  Hartford,  in  167 1;  Richardf  Joseph?  Josephs  and  Ash- 
bel?  all  of  whom  lived  in  East  Hartford,  Conn.  His 
mother,  Dolly  Spencer,  was  a  daughter  of  Rev.  Thomas 
Spencer  of  East  Hartford,  and  Dorothy  Hill,  both  of  whom 
descended  from  first  settlers  of  Hartford.  Dolly  (Spencer) 
Case  died  in  S.  Manchester,  aged  93.

large  acquaintance  with  the  Hollister  family,  a  very  reten-

him  to  give  the  author  valuable  assistance  in  the  prepara-

father  was  a  cotton  manufacturer,  and  his  grandfather  is 
said  to  have  been  one  of  the  first  manufacturers  of  cotton 
goods  in  New  England.  They  were  also  glass-makers. 
John  learned  the  trade  of  tool-making,  and  worked  at  that 
business  ten  years  in  Amherst,  Mass.;  removed  to  Chicago 
in  1857.  and  was  a  carpenter  there  and  in  Lake  View  until 
1874,  when  he  removed  to  Rogers  Park,  111.,  and  engaged 
in  farming.  He  was  one  of  the  village  trustees  there  for 
four  years  after  its  organization,  and  was  president  of  the 
board  in  188 1-2;  has  since  been  street  commissioner. 

He  married  Susan  Jeannette  Thompson,  who  was  born

(Asenath^  Hollister,  Josiah?  Thomasf  Thomas?  Joh/if  John'). 

Christopher  Miner?  son  of  Asenath^  HoUister  and  Ogden 
Spencer,  was  born  in  Manchester,  Conn.,  June  20,  1833. 
In  1845,  he  went  to  live  with  his  grandfather,  Josiah^ 
Hollister,  then  90  years  of  age,  and  here  he  first  devel- 
oped a  fondness  for  mechanical  work.  His  grandfather 
had  an  old  foot-lathe,  upon  which  the  boy  spent  most  of 
his  spare  time,  turning  out  various  fancy  articles  in  wood. 
His  Aunt  Harriet  often  expressed  her  disapproval  of  this 
waste  of  time,  and  thought  he  could  be  more  profitably 
engaged  in  chopping  wood  or  something  more  practical ; 
but  his  grandfather  encouraged  him,  believing  he  would 
"  make  something  yet."  From  early  childhood  he  had  a 
passion  for  fire-arms,  and  the  first  gun  he  owned  was  his 
grandfather's  old  musket,  a  Revolutionary  relic,  which  he 
improved  by  sawing  off  the  barrel  with  an  old  case-knife, 
converted  into  a  saw  by  hacking  it  on  the  edge  of  an  axe, 
little  dreaming  while  remodeling  the  old  flintstock  that 
this  branch  of  mechanical  work  was  to  form  so  large  a  part 
of  his  life-work.  In  1847,  he  left  his  grandfather's  farm 
and  went  to  work  at  Cheney's  silk-mill,  and  in  1848,  entered 
on  an  eight-months'  apprenticeship  in  the  machine  shop  of 
Samuel  Loomis  at  Manchester  Centre.  The  following 
winter  he  went  to  school,  and  in  the  spring  he  served 
another  eight-months*  apprenticeship  with  Mr.  Loomis,  at 
the  end  of  which  time  he  entered  the  employ  of  Cheney 
Brothers,  as  journeyman  machinist,  where  he  remained 
about  three  years.  During  this  period  he  made  a  good 
deal  of  experimental  machinery,  under  the  supervision  of 


3l6  THE   IIOLLISTER   FAMILY. 

Mr.  Frank  Cheney,  whose  kindly  interest  in  the  young 
man's  mechanical  ingenuity  led  him  into  the  line  of  inven- 
tion. In  1853,  desiring  to  become  better  acquainted  with 
the  methods  of  different  shops,  he  went  to  Rochester,  N.Y., 
working  six  months  in  making  machinist's  tools,  and  six 
months  in  locomotive  repairing.  Returning  to  Hartford, 
Conn.,  he  worked  a  year  in  the  repair  shops  of  the  Colt 
Fire-arm  Company,  where  he  first  conceived  the  idea  of 
improvenjents  in  repeating  fire-arms.  Too  close  applica- 
tion to  study  and  work  impaired  his  health,  and  he  was 
obliged  to  go  home  and  rest  for  three  months,  when  he 
again  went  to  work  for  Cheney  Bros.,  and  soon  after 
became  superintendant  of  their  machine  shop.  While 
with  them  he  obtained  his  first  patent  on  an  automatic 
silk-winding  machine,  which  they  regarded  as  a  great 
achievement,  and  manufactured  a  large  number  of  them, 
paying  him  a  royalty.  He  exhibited  the  device  to  the 
Willimantic  Linen  Company,  and  in  company  with  Heze- 
kiah  Conant,  who  was  then  in  the  Company's  eAiploy, 
perfected  a  machine  that  was  adopted  by  the  Company 
for  their  entire  system  of  thread-winding.  Mr.  Conant 
proposed  to  introduce  it  to  Messrs.  Coats  Bros.,  of  Belfast, 
Ireland,  and  wished  Mr.  Spencer  to  accompany  him  to 
England  for  that  purpose,  but  the  latter's  greater  interest 
in  fire-arms,  influenced  him  to  remain  at  home  and  perfect 
the  gun,  that  he  had  been  at  work  upon  during  spare  hours 
for  several  years.  Through  the  kindness  of  Mr.  Frank 
Cheney,  he  was  offered  every  facility  for  successfully  carry- 
ing forward  the  work,  which  resulted  in  his  obtaining  a 
patent  on  what  was  known  as  the  "Spencer  seven-shooter." 
The  means  for  perfecting  the  model  and  obtaining  the 
patent  were  advanced  by  Mr.  Spencer's  father,  in  return 
for  which  he  was  given  a  half- interest  in  all  profits  to  be 
derived  from  the  patent.  Mr.  Charles  Cheney,  of  Cheney 
Brothers,  became  interested  in  it  and  at  the  outbreak  of 
the  Rebellion,  a  company  was  organized  to  manufacture 
the   gun    for   war   purposes,    and    in   company   with    Mr. 


SEVENTH   GENERATION.  317 

Cheney,  Mr.  Spencer  went  to  Washington  with  a  sample 
of  the  gun,  which  was  shown  to  the  Hon.  Gideon  Welles, 
Sec*y  of  the  Navy,  who  was  an  intimate  friend  of  Mr. 
Cheney.  A  trial  of  the  gun  was  ordered  at  the  Washing- 
ton Navy- Yard,  at  which  one  thousand  rounds  of  ammu- 
nition was  fired  with  the  gun  without  cleaning,  and  a 
rapidity  of  twenty-one  shots  in  sixty-two  seconds  obtained. 
The  result  of  the  trial  was  an  order  from  the  Navy  Dep't 
for  one  thousand  guns.  The  Cheney  Bros,  then  purchased 
the  patent,  paying  $5000  and  a  royalty  of  one  dollar  on 
every  gun  manufactured.  The  Cheneys  then  united  with 
Boston  parties  and  organized  a  company  for  the  manu- 
facture of  the  guns,  which  was  known  as  the  Spencer 
Repeating  Rifle  Co.  Half  of  the  Chickering  piano  factory 
was  secured,  and  an  expenditure  of  half-a-million  dollars 
made  for  machinery,  etc.  Mr.  Spencer,  in  connection  with 
Mr.  Frank  Cheney,  went  to  Boston  to  superintend  the 
works.  Warren  Fisher,  Jr.,  treasurer  of  the  company, 
obtained  the  assistance  of  the  Hon.  James  G.  Blaine,  who 
prevailed  upon  the  War  Dept.  to  give  an  order  for  ten 
thousand.  The  first  lot  was  used  in  arming  some  of  the 
Mass.,  Conn.,  and  Mich.  Vols.,  who  soon  had  ample  occa- 
sion to  put  the  new  arm  to  practical  use,  the  successful 
and  effective  result  of  which  is  now  a  matter  of  history. 
From  this  time  the  demand  for  the  new  gun  was  so  great 
that  the  company  was  taxed  to  its  utmost  limit,  making 
about  two  hundred  thousand  guns,  and  so  great  was  the 
demand  that  the  Government  gave  the  Burnside  Rifle  Co., 
of  Providence,  R.I.,  an  order  for  thirty  thousand,  that 
company  paying  the  Spencer  Rifle  Co.,  a  royalty  of  three 
dollars  a  gun.  In  August,  1862,  Mr.  Spencer  went  to 
Washington,  taking  with  him  a  rifle  for  presentation  to 
President  Lincoln,  who  was  greatly  interested  with  it  and 
gave  Mr.  Spencer  a  very  cordial  reception.  A  practical 
test  was  made  by  Mr.  Lincoln  on  the  grounds  below 
the  White  House  toward  the  Potomac,  the  target  being 
a   rough   board   with  a  black   bull's-eye   two   inches   in 


3l8  THE   HOLLISTER   FAMILY. 

diameter.  Mr.  Lincoln  fired  the  gun  off-hand,  doing  good 
work,  and  the  target  was  preserved  by  Mr.  Spencer,  who 
afterward  sent  it  to  the  Historical  Rooms  at  Springfield, 
111.,  where  it  now  is.  Ill -health  compelled  Mr.  Spencer 
to  relinquish  this  close  application  to  the  details  of  the 
business,  and  he  took  several  trips  in  the  interest  of  the 
company,  visiting  the  armies  in  the  field  and  instructing 
the  soldiers  in  the  use  of  the  gun.  He  was  at  the  head- 
quarters of  the  Army  of  the  Cumberland,  in  1863,  where 
he  met  Gen.  Rosecrans  and  Col.  Wilder  of  the  17th  Ind. 
Vols.,  commanding  the  1st  Brigade  Mounted  Infantry^ 
known  as  the  "  Hatchet  Brigade,"  which  at  the  colonel's 
request  was  furnished  with  the  gun.  From  Murphrees- 
boro,  Mr.  Spencer  went  via  Louisville  and  Nashville  to 
Cairo,  and  thence  down  the  Mississippi  to  the  mouth 
of  the  Yazoo,  just  above  Vicksburg,  where  our  gun- 
boats under  command  of  Com.  Foote  were  cooperating 
with  Gen.  Grant  in  the  Siege  of  Vicksburg.  His  trip 
down  the  Mississippi  was  made  on  a  Gov't  Dispatch  boat, 
he  having  been  provided  with  letters  from  the  Navy  Dep't 
granting  him  every  facility  for  access  to  the  gun-boats, 
which  were  all  provided  with  the  Spencer  rifles.  He 
reached  Vicksburg  four  days  before  the  fleet  ran  the 
batteries,  remained  there  one  day.  meeting  Gen.  Grant  on 
board  Com.  Foote's  flag-ship,  and  gave  an  exhibition  of 
the  rifle.  Returning  to  Boston,  he  devoted  his  time  to  the 
further  improvement  of  the  gun  until  the  close  of  the  war, 
when  the  demand  for  the  gun  ceased,  and  the  company 
sold  its  entire  plant  to  the  Winchester  Repeating  Arms 
Co.,  of  New  Haven,  Ct,  which  thus  put  an  end  to  a 
formidable  rival  to  its  own  arm. 

Mr.  Spencer  removed  to  Amherst,  Mass.,  and  in  com- 
pany with  Mr.  Henry  F.  Hills  of  that  town,  formed  the 
Roper  Repeating  Arms  Co.,  and  engaged  in  making  the 
Roper  shot-gun,  patented  by  S.  H.  Roper  of  Boston. 
The  principle  of  the  mechanism  of  this  gun  being  defec- 
tive the   enterprise  was  abandoned,  after  about  eighty- 


SEVENTH   GENERATION.  319 

thousand  dollars  and  three  years  time  had  been  fruitlessly 
spent  upon  it.  In  1869,  Mr.  Spencer  joined  with  his  father, 
purchased  the  entire  plant  of  the  company  and  moved  the 
machinery  to  Hartford,  where  with  Mr.  Chas.  E.  Billings 
of  that  city,  under  the  name  of  the  Billings  and  Spencer 
Co.,  they  began  the  manufacture  of  drop-forgings,  sewing- 
machine  shuttles,  etc.  The  company  is  still  in  existence 
and  one  of  the  most  successful  and  flourishing  enterprises 
in  Hartford.  While  here  Mr.  Spencer  obtained  a  patent 
on  a  machine  for  automatically  turning  the  spindles  and 
heads  of  metal  spools  used  in  sewing-machine  shuttles. 
This  machine  forms  the  complete  spool  from  a  coil  of  wire, 
straightening  the  wire  and  turning  the  ends,  thereby  reduc- 
ing the  cost  of  making  eighty  per  cent.  It  is  now  used  by 
all  the  sewing-machine  companies.  This  invention  sug- 
gested to  Spencer's  mind  the  idea  of  making  the  turret- 
screw  machine,  commonly  used  for  turning  metal  screws 
from  the  wire  to  work  automatically,  and  the  careful  study 
of  the  subject  for  a  few  weeks  resulted  in  the  perfection  of 
his  plan,  and  so  confident  was  he  of  its  practicability,  that 
he  took  special  pains  to  keep  his  invention  a  secret,  and 
privately  constructing  a  wooden  model,  he  applied  for  a 
patent  before  making  a  working  machine.  The  practical 
result  of  this  invention  was  to  largely  reduce  the  cost  of 
manufacture,  one  man  being  required  to  attend  to  from 
ten  to  fifteen  machines,  instead  of  one  to  each  machine  as 
before.  Having  obtained  his  patent,  he  first  applied  the 
device  to  a  machine  made  by  the  Pratt  &  Whitney  Co.,  of 
Hartford,  then  in  use  in  the  shop  of  the  Billings  &  Spencer 
Co.  The  result  was  a  complete  success,  and  so  great  was 
his  enthusiasm,  that  he  determined  to  commence  the  man- 
ufacture of  screws  automatically  as  a  new  enterprise,  and 
severing  his  connection  with  the  company  in  1874,  he 
hired  a  room  and  set  the  first  machine  to  work.  New 
machines  were  put  in  as  fast  as  they  could  be  made,  but 
his  business  increased  faster  than  his  ability  to  fill  orders. 
Geo.  A.  Fairchild,  supt.  of  the  Weed  Sewing  Machine  Co., 


320  THE   HOLLISTER   FAMILY. 

became  interested  in  the  new  enterprise  and  in  company 
with  David  Groesbeck  and  Daniel  Morell,  both  of  New 
York  City,  furnished  the  capital  for  enlarging  the  business. 
In  1876,  they  formed  the  Hartford  Machine  Screw  Co., 
with  a  capital  of  $40,000,  of  which  Mr.  Spencer  was  supt. 
Business  was  carried  on  by  them  in  a  portion  of  the  Weed 
sewing-machine  factory  for  three  years,  when  having  out- 
grown its  quarters,  the  company  decided  to  build  a  place 
suitable  for  its  growing  needs.  The  result  was  the  estab- 
lishment of  one  of  the  largest  business  enterprises  in  the 
City  of  Hartford,  with  a  plant  valued  at  $400,000.  It 
operates  350  machines,  and  the  leading  manufacturers  of 
machinery  throughout  the  country  have  generally  adopted 
its  use.  The  field  for  this  business  being  so  large,  a  com- 
pany was  organized  in  1882,  and  established  at  Elyria,  O., 
to  operate  the  machine  in  the  Western  States. 

During  all  these  years  of  excessive  work  Spencer  s  mind 
was  still  inclined  to  the  improvement  of  fire-arms,  and  in 
1882,  in  connection  with  his  old  friend  S.  H.-  Roper  of 
Boston,  determined  to  produce  a  repeating-gun  that  should 
excel  all  others  in  rapidity  of  firing.  The  first  feature  he 
insisted  on  was  that  the  gun  should  be  capable  of  being 
continually  fired  without  removing  it  from  the  shoulder. 
The  right  hand  always  being  in  use  to  grasp  the  stock  of  the 
gun,  it  naturally  occurred  to  them  that  in  whatever  system 
they  adopted  the  left-hand  must  be  employed  to  manipu- 
late the  reloading.  The  result  of  their  mutual  study  and 
experiments  was  what  is  now  known  as  the  Spencer  Repeat- 
ing Shot-gun,  for  which  they  obtained  joint  patents  in 
April,  1882.  Their  system  was  also  adapted  to  a  military 
rifle,  and  their  model  was  subjected  to  practical  tests  before 
a  Board  appointed  by  the  Sec*y  of  War  under  an  appro- 
priation of  Congress  for  the  inspection  of  repeating-arms. 
The  result  of  this  in  every  respect  exceptionally  severe  test, 
was  a  complete  success  for  the  rifle,  a  rapidity  of  firing 
being  attained  of  eighty-six  shots  in  two  minutes,  or  more

models  were  shown  to  New- York  parties  who  became 
interested  in  the  gun,  and  in  May,  1883,  a  company  was 
formed  for  their  manufacture,  of  which  Mr.  Spencer  is 
treasurer  and  general -manager.  It  is  known  as  the 
Spencer  Arms  Co.,  has  a  capital  of  $400,0(X)  and  j'ts 
works  are  located  at  Windsor,  Conn.  In  July,  1883,  Mr. 
Spencer  in  company  with  the  president,  L.  A.  Bartlett 
of  New- York  City,  and  Mr.  Albert  Bierstadt,  the  artist, 
who  was  one  of  the  stockholders,  visited  Europe  and 
exhibited  the  rifle  to  the  military  authorities  of  England* 
France,  Germany,  Austria,  Italy,  and  Denmark,  with  uni- 
form success.  Since  its  organization  the  company  has 
been  principally  engaged  in  the  manufacture  of  shot- 
guns. Several  thousand  of  which  are  in  use  in  the  United 
States,  and  other  parts  of  the  world.  The  gun  has  an 
established  reputation  among  sportsmen,  and  has  recently 
found  a  new  use,  in  the  quelling  of  riots,  being  better 
adapted  for  that  purpose  than  rifles.  The  U.-S.  Govern- 
ment recently  purchased  several  hundred,  which  were 
delivered  to  the  Ohio  State  authorities,  on  a  requisition 
of  the  governor,  for  arming  a  portion  of  the  Ohio  militia.

pleasant  custom  in  Danby  on  election  days  to  wait  until 
"Squire"  Hollistcr  had  cast  the  first  vote,  and  it  is  said  he 
never  kept  his  fellow-citizens  waiting  long.

(1149.)    Joseph^  Hollister. 
(Joseph?  Joseph?  Joseph*  Joseph?  Johnf  John*). 

Joseph/  son  of  Joseph^  and  Patience^  Hollister,  was  born 
in  Glastonbury,  Conn.,  Sept.  6,  1789.  He  went  with  his 
father's  family  to  Sharon  and  afterward  to  Salisbury  while 
still  a  youth.  In  a  family  of  which  all  the  sons  were  men 
of  superior  ability,  his  unusual  mental  strength,  his  power 
of  application,  and  his  love  of  books  were  early  conspicu- 
ous.    We  are  not  certain  as  to  the  exact  time  he  left  Sal-

isbury  and  his  father's  house,  but  as  early  as  1815  we  find 
him  teaching  school  at  the  Adams  Settlement,  in  Tomp- 
kins Co.,  N.Y.,  near  Danby.  Among  his  pupils  was  a 
beautiful  young  girl,  or  rather  child,  named  Amanda 
Adams,  daughter  of  Nathan  Adams,  Esq.,  one  of  the 
founders  of  Adams  Settlement.  It  was  not  unnoticed  that 
the  bright  eyes  of  the  pretty  pupil  had  awakened  a  tender 
feeling  in  the  heart  of  the  young  school-teacher,  and  one 
of  his  companions  asked  young  HoUister  why  he  did  not 
propose  to  her.  His  reply  was:  "If  I  were  a  duke  or  mil- 
lionaire I  might  consider  myself  good  enough  for  her." 
But  love  overcame  his  modesty  and  they  were  married  at 
Adams  Settlement  in  Feb.,  18 17.  She  was  born  at  Red- 
ding, March  28,  1801.  She  bore  her  husband  six  children 
before  she  was  28  years  of  age.      She  died  March,  1884. 

Before  his  marriage,  Mr.  Hollister  had  begun  his  legal 
studies,  and  owing  to  the  scarcity  of  good  legal  talent  in 
the  community,  as  well  as  to  the  respect  incited  by  his 
superior  education  and  ability,  had  often  been  called  upon 
to  try  cases  and  give  legal  advice.  Shortly  after  his  mar- 
riage he  removed  to  Owego,  N.Y.,  to  complete  his  legal 
studies  and  was  admitted  to  the  bar.  He  practiced  law 
more  or  less  during  his  whole  life,  but  also  farmed  and 
taught  school,  for  which  last  pursuit  he  seemed  to  be  sin- 
gularly well  qualified.  He  returned  to  Adams  Settlement 
before  August,  1818,  and  lived  successively  at  Danby, 
Spencer,  Danby  again,  which  he  left  in  the  winter  of  1834; 
LeRoy,  where  he  lived  about  two  years ;  Victor,  N. Y.,  from 
about  1836  or  37  to  1842,  and  Victor,  Mich.,  to  which 
place  he  removed  with  his  family  in  1842.  He  died  Aug. 
21,  1849. 

Note. — The  Adamses  mentioned  above  were  from  Fairfield,  Ct.  Joseph, 
Abraham,  Huldah  or  Azubah  and  Benjamin,  with  possibly  Ann,  Abel,  Eliza- 
beth, Lydia,  and  Asel  were  brothers  and  sisters  and  seem  to  have  been  bom 
in  that  part  of  Fairfield  County  which  is  now  Fairfield,  beginning  about  1740. 
They  were  probably  children  of  Abraham  Adams  and  Elizabeth  Williams. 
This  Abraham,  the  elder,  is  said  to  have  died  in  the  army  during  the  French- 
Indian  war  (1 754- 1 760).     William  H.  Upton  of  Walla  Walla,  W.  T.,  one  of

the  descendants  of  Joseph  HoIIister  and  Amanda  Adams,  has  collected  much 
matter  relating  to  his  posterity,  and  would  be  pleased  to  correspond  with  any- 
one interested  in  the  subject. 

Joseph  Adams,  above  mentioned,  married  Joanna  Disborough,  (said  to 
have  been  the  daughter  of  Nathan  and  Neight  Disborough  of  what  is  now 
Green's  Farms,  Conn.)f  about  1 761,  and  settled  in  Redding,  Conn.  He  had 
eight  children,  of  whom  the  youngest,  Nathan,  bom  at  Redding,  Jan.  27, 
1778;  married  his  cousin  Lucinda  Adams,  and  in  1805,  was  one  of  the 
founders  of  Adams  Settlement.  His  second  child  and  eldest  daughter  was  the 
Amanda  Adams  mentioned  as  the  wife  of  Joseph  HoIIister.  Her  mother, 
Lucinda,  was  a  daughter  of  the  Benjamin  Adams  mentioned  above.  He  set- 
tled at  Norwalk,  Conn.,  but  as  early  as  1789,  removed  to  New -York  State, 
probably  to  Adams  Settlement.

Horace?  .son  of  Joseph^  and  Patience^  HoIIister,  was 
born  in  Glastonbury,  Conn.,  July  4,  1791.  He  went  with 
his  parents  to  Sharon  and  Sali.sbury,  and  resided  on  the 
family  estate  at  Salisbury  from  1805  to  1864,  In  that 
year  he  sold  the  old  homestead  and  finally  settled  at 
Woodburn,  111.,  where  he  died  Aug.  17,  1866. 

He  was  well  educated,  and  his  occasional  contributions 
to  the  press  show  him  to  have  been  a  gentleman  of  clear 
mind  and  unusual  ability.  He  took  an  active  interest  in 
public  affairs  and  was  active  both  in  church  and  State. 
He  held  one  or  another  town  office  most  of  bis  life,  and  in 
1846  was  a  member  of  the  legislature  of  Connecticut.

William  Clark  of  Cornwall,  Conn.  He  was  born  in  1790. 
He  was  twice  elected  to  the  legislature  and  was  highly

(1152.)    Edward^  HoUister. 
(Joseph?  Joseph?  Joseph*  Joseph?  John?  John'). 

Edwardf  son  of  Joseph^  and  Patience^  Hollister,  was 
born  in  Sharon,  Conn.,  Feb.  22,  1796;  died  in  Alton,  111., 
Jan.  II,  1870. 

He  entered  the  Sophomore  class  at  Middlebury  College, 
Vt.,  in  1812,  and  graduated  in  1816;  took  charge  of  the 
academy  in  Newcastle  for  one  year,  then  entered  the  theo- 
logical seminary  at  Andover,  Mass.,  and  went  through  the 
three  years  course;  in  1820,  was  licensed  and  ordained  by 
the  presbytery  of  Londonderry,  Vt;  went  to  Missouri 
under  the  direction  of  the  Connecticut  Missionary  Society, 
and  served  that  society  until  the  spring  of  1822;  receiving 
an  invitation  from  Danville,  Vt.,  he  became  pastor  of  the 
church  there,  labored  about  three  years,  then  lost  his 
health  and  went  to  the  South  for  the  benefit  of  a  milder 
climate,  first  to  Charleston,  S.C.,  thence  to  Buffalo  Springs 
in  southern  Virginia,  and  thence,  about  1829,  to  Oxford, 
Granville  Co.,  N.C.,  and  took  charge  of  a  large  female 
seminary. 

With  improved  health  he  tried  to  live  in  the  West  in 
1834,  but  too  much  exposure  on  the  prairies  at  Griggsville, 
Pike  Co.,  111.,  brought  sickness,  and  just  then  came  an  in- 
vitation  from  old  southern  friends,  now  living  in  West

Tennessee,  to  take  charge  of  a  seminary  for  young  ladies. 
So  he  spent  seven  years  at  Somerville,  and  La  Grange, 
with  such  improvement  of  health  as  to  justify  another  trial 
of  the  climate  of  Illinois. 

He  served  under  the  American  Home  Missionary  So- 
ciety five  years,  and  subsequently  in  an  agency  for  the 
American  Bible  Society  seven  years.  He  married  at 
Salem,  now  Danvers,  Mass.,  Aug.  25,  1823,  Mary  Trumbull 
of  that  town,  a  cultivated  lady  who  shared  all  his  labors.

(1153.)     Richard7  HoUister. 
(Joseph?  Joseph?  Joseph*  Joseph?  Johnf  John'). 

RichardJ  son  of  Joseph^  and  Patience^  HoUister,  was 
born  in  Sharon,  Conn.,  Aug.  4,  1798.  Neither  in  history 
nor  in  fiction  do  we  find  many  men  who  experienced  more 
marvelous  adventures  or  saw  more  strange  sights  than  did 
he.  Indeed,  after  he  had  been  separated  from  his  rela- 
tions for  more  than  a-quarter  of  a  century,  no  fabled  ac- 
count of  his  actions  was  too  incredible  to  find  believers. 
For  instance,  the  writer  once  heard  it  gravely  told  as  a 
fact  that  nearly  thirty  years  ago  he  married  a  native 
princess  of  one  of  the  larger  islands  of  the  East  Indies, 
and  in  regal  state  among  the  savage  islands  ruled  over  his 
harem  and  innumerable  slaves. 

He  seems  to  have  lived  quietly  in  Sharon  and  Salisbury 
until  1825,  and  was  probably  admitted  to  the  bar  before 
that  date.     He  married  Dec.  24,  1822,  Phebe,  daughter  of 


SEVENTH  GENERATION.  ^4^ 

Daniel  Reed  of  Salisbury.      She  was  born  in  Salisbury, 
July  IS,  1801.     In  1848,  she  left  her  husband  at  Winches- 
ter, 111.,  and  went  to  her  father's  house  in  Le  Roy,  N.Y. 
In  Dec,  1879,  she  was  living  at  West  Greece,  N.Y.     In 
1825,  Richard  Hollister  and  his  family  removed  to  Gene- 
see Co.,  N.Y.,  where  he  lived  on  a  farm  and  in  the  vil- 
lage of  Le  Roy,  N.Y.,  until   1843  or  1845.     During  most 
of  these  years  he  was  a  magistrate.     In  1837,  we  find  him 
named  among  the  founders  of  the  Le  Roy  female  semin- 
ary, now  Ingham  University.     From  Le  Roy  he  removed 
to  Illinois,  where  his  family  suffered  from  sickness  and  he 
met  with  great  financial   losses.     In   1848,  having  failed 
financially,  his  family  became  broken  up  and  at  the  age  of 
50,  Judge   Hollister*s   wanderings  began.      His  wife,  his 
daughter  Sarah,  and  his  granddaughter  Phebe  A.,  returned 
to  Le  Roy.     His  son,  Eli  T.,  remained  in  Illinois,  and  his 
son  Henry  R.,  went  to  Texas.     Richard  himself,  with  a 
partner,   took   a   stock  of  goods   into  Mexico  where   he 
joined  Gen.  Taylor.     He  sold  his  goods  and  started  back 
home,  but  was  taken  sick  in  New  Orleans  and  robbed  of 
most  of  his  money.     In  Jan.,  1849,  he  left  New  Orleans  for 
California,  via  Panama.     He  worked  in  the  mines  on  the 
Stanislaus,  but  became  ill  and  went  to  Benicia,  where  he 
hired  out  to  the  Government  as  a  carpenter  at  an  ounce  of 
gold  per  day,  but  it  soon  appeared  he  was  no  carpenter 
and  he  lost  his  position.     He  then  went  to  the  Hawaiian 
Islands;    was  admitted    to   the   bar   there,  but   engaged 
in  mercantile  business  at  Waimea,  on  Kauai,  one  of  the 
Sandwich  Islands.     About  the  year  1851  he  chartered  a 
small  schooner  and  went  on  a  trading  voyage  among  the 
islands  of  the  Pacific  Ocean,  and  finally  arrived  at  Sydney 
after  a  very  profitable  voyage.     At  Sydney  he  purchased 
another  stock  of  goods  and  started  to  return ;  but  at  Ova- 
len,  in  the  Fiji  Islands,  the  owner  of  the  vessel,  who  was 
on  board,  sold  her,  and  Mr.  Hollister  and  his  goods  were 
put  ashore.     He  had  no  redress,  as  there  was  no  law  there. 
He  remained  at  Ovalen  six  months,  and  while  there  wit-

(Isaacf  Joseph?  Joseph*  Joseph?  Johnf  John'). 

Fanny?  daughter  of  Isaac^  HoUister  and  Abigail  Savage, 
was  born  in  Glastonbury,  Conn.,  Jan.  15,  1803.  When 
7  years  of  age  she  removed  with  her  parents  to  Gran- 
ville, Washington  Co.,  N.Y.  She  was  married  in  Granville, 
Sept.  2,  1828,  to  the  Rev.  Edwin  Hall,  son  of  Ira  Hall, 
M.D.,  and  Rebecca  Parker.  Edwin  was  born  in  Granville, 
Jan.  II,  1802.  His  father,  Ira  Hall,  graduated  at  Dart- 
mouth in  1793.  He  was  a  son  of  Nathaniel  Hall  of  Leb- 
anon, N.H.,  who  was  the  son  of  Nathaniel  Hall,  a  native 
of  Mansfield,  Conn.  Rebecca  Parker  was  a  native  of  Tor- 
rington,  Conn.  Edwin  Hall  early  gave  promise  of  the 
marked  ability  exhibited  in  his  riper  years.  When  9 
years  of  age  he  began  the  study  of  Latin  with  his  elder 
brother,  Silas,  and  a  distant  kinsman,  Willis  Hall,  who 
graduated  with  the  highest  honors  at  Yale  in  1824,  and 
was  afterward  attorney-general  of  the  State  of  New  York. 
Edwip*s  father  designed  to  send  him  to  Dartmouth,  but 
his  death  occured  in  18 16,  and  a  protracted  chancery  suit 
so  nearly  consumed  the  large  estate  he  left  that  the  family 
were  left  in  straitened  circumstances,  and  Edwin  left  his 
studies  and  went  to  work  on  the  farm.     In  18 18,  when  16 


SEVENTH   GENERATION.  349 

years  of  ago  he  taught  school  in  one  of  the  back  districts 
at  eight  dollars  a  month.  The  next  year  he  applied  for  a 
school  in  another  back  district  at  nine  dollars  a  month, 
but  was  refused  as  being  too  young.  He  immediately 
started  for  the  west  district  of  Hartford,  N.Y.,  and  engaged 
to  teach  for  eleven  dollars  a  month,  half  money  and  half 
in  corn.  This  was  the  native  place  of  Hosea  Ballou,  the 
great  champion  and  oracle  of  Universalism  in  New  Eng- 
land. Here  Edwin  began  to  read  the  bible  to  combat  the 
Universalists,  who  made  constant  assaults  upon  him.  The 
next  year  he  taught  in  Whitehall,  where  he  had  123 
scholars  and  required  an  assistant.  After  six  months  ser- 
vice he  returned  to  the  farm  fully  determined  to  be  a 
farmer,  but  during  a  revival  of  religion  he  was  converted 
and  became  active  and  zealous  in  persuading  others  to 
come  to  Christ.  Sometime  after  this,  his  friend  and  kins- 
man, Willis  Hall,  visited  him  and  persuaded  him  to  study 
for  the  ministry.  He  soon  after  went  to  Castleton,  Vt, 
to  prepare  for  entering  college  under  the  tuition  of  Mr. 
Howe,  previously  a  tutor  in  Middlebury  College.  He 
entered  Middlebury  College  in  1822,  when  20  years  of 
age;  he  not  only  mastered  the  regular  college  curriculum, 
but  studied  in  addition,  French,  German,  Spanish,  Italian, 
Hebrew,  and  more  than  the  college  required  in  mathe- 
matics. But  his  zeal  and  labor  consumed  him.  He  was 
attacked  by  a  profuse  bleeding  of  the  lungs,  which  obliged 
him  to  give  up  all  studies  not  essential  to  the  work  of 
the  ministry. 

While  in  college  his  studies  were  several  times  inter- 
rupted, partly  by  his  poor  health  and  partly  from  the  neces- 
sity of  earning  money.  On  commencement  day  he  was 
not  expected  to  live,  being  prostrated  from  a  hemorrhage  of 
the  lungs.  His  oration  was  read  by  a  class-mate.  Dur- 
ing his  junior  year  at  Middlebury,  he  had  received  a  call  to 
teach  the  academy  at  Norwalk,  Conn.,  which  he  accepted, 
and  it  proved  to  be  an  important  event  in  his  life,  for  in 
1832,  the  pulpit  of  the  church  at  Norwalk  became  vacant 


350  THE   HOLLISTER   FAMILY. 

and  he  was  invited  to  fill  it,  and  was  installed  pastor,  July 
18,  1832.  His  charge  was  the  old  church  and  congrega- 
tion of  Norwalk,  planted  in  1650,  and  one  of  the  very  old- 
est, largest,  and  most  respectable  in  the  State.  He  at 
once  became  one  of  the  leading  ministers  of  the  vicinity. 
Here  he  remained  until  1854,  greatly  beloved  and  re- 
spected. In  this  year  he  was  called  to  fill  the  chair  of 
christian  theology  in  Auburn  Seminary,  where  he  went  in 
1855,  and  remained  until  his  death,  Sept.  8,  1877.

Obituary  Notice  of  Gideon  H.  Hollister. 

Gideon  Hiram  Hollister  was  born  at  Washington,  in  this 
State,  on  the  14th  of  December,  18 17,  and  died  at  Litch- 
field, March  24.  1881.  At  Yale  College,  whence  he  grad- 
uated in  1840,  he  ranked  among  the  foremost  writers  and 
speakers  of  his  time,  was  class  poet,  editor  of  the  Yale 
Litrrary  Magazine^  and   first  president  of  the  Linonian

Society — the  highest  of  society  honors  at  a  time  when 
those  honors  were  very  highly  considered.  Studying  with 
Judge  Seymour  in  Litchfield,  he  was  admitted  to  the  bar 
in  1842,  and.  after  a  brief  stay  in  Woodbury,  came  to 
Litchfield.  There,  in  1843.  he  was  appointed  clerk  of  the 
courts,  a  position  which  he  held,  a  single  year  excepted, 
till  1852,  though  all  the  time  in  active  practice  at  the  bar. 

Mr.  Hollister  became  a  State  Senator  in  1856;  was 
instrumental  in  procuring  the  election  of  the  Hon.  James 
Dixon  to  the  U.-S.  Senate,  and,  during  the  many  years  in 
which  Mr.  Dixon  was  a  power  in  Connecticut  politics, 
exercised  great  political  influence  in  the  western  part  of 
the  State.  In  1868,  he  was  sent  Minister  to  Hayti,  and  on 
his  return  lived  for  several  years  at  Stratford,  practicing 
law  in  Bridgeport.  He  returned  to  Litchfield  in  1876,  and 
represented  that  town  in  the  legislature  of  1880. 

In  1855,  he  published  a  history  of  Connecticut,  and  at 
the  time  of  his  death  had  partly  completed  a  revision  of 
that  work.  In  1866,  he  published  a  volume  of  poems, 
showing  marked  power,  and  greatly  increasing  his  literary 
reputation. 

Mr.  Hollister  was  not  learned  in  the  law;  he  seldom 
read  text-books,  and  was  little  familiar  with  decisions, 
though  thoroughly  grounded  in  the  elementary  principles 
of  the  science.  The  books  he  loved  were  the  English 
classics;  he  eschewed  trash,  but  read  and  re-read  the  great 
writers  of  our  tongue,  from  Chaucer  to  Tennyson,  with  a 
persistent  interest  not  common  in  these  days  when  litera- 
ture is  so  very  light,  and  when  books  which  need  to  be 
studied  are  seldom  opened.  As  a  lawyer  his  strength  lay 
in  the  trial  of  matters  of  fact  to  a  jury,  in  which  he  had 
few  equals. 

In  cross-examination  he  was  wonderfully  adroit.  Most 
witnesses,  consciously  or  unconsciously,  incline  to  swear 
with  the  examiner,  against  the  cross-examiner.  This 
stumbling-block  of  natural  antagonism  he  avoided  with 
great  skill.  A  studiously  polite  and  considerate  manner 
allayed  hostility;  and,  if  the  antagonism  was  proof  against 
kind  treatment,  he  would  often  lead  the  witness  the  way 
he  wished  by  seeming  to  desire  him  to  take  the  opposite 
direction.  When  severe  he  was  terribly  severe,  but  shun- 
ned indiscriminate  severity — rarely  attacking  a  witness 
harshly,  unless  under  circumstances  which  would  fully 
justify  him  with  the  court  and  jury. 


384  THE   HOLLISTER   FAMILY. 

Mr.  HoUister's  delivery  was  slow;  his  manner  impres- 
sive; his  action  dignified  and  effective;  and  he  had,  in  a 
remarkable  degree,  the  advocates  power  of  portraying 
parties  and  witnesses  with  such  a  subtle  coloring  of  apt 
words  as  impressed  his  own  bias  upon  juries  without  their 
being  at  all  aware  of  the  effect  his  art  produced.  At  times 
he  was  magnificent,  though,  like  all  born  orators,  often 
disappointing.  When  at  his  best  he  overflowed  with  wit, 
pressed  his  attack  with  terrific  weight  and  vigor,  and  elec- 
trified his  hearers  with  passages  of  exceeding  beauty  and 
eloquence.  His  skill  with  the  pen  had  a  marked  effect 
upon  his  spoken  utterances,  giving  them  all  the  variety, 
correctness,  and  elegance  of  good  writing.  No  doubt,  also, 
his  thorough  acquaintance  with  Shakespeare  and  Tenny- 
son, with  Burke  and  Webster,  contributed  largely  to  the 
formation  of  a  style  of  such  unusual  excellence;  but  more, 
perhaps,  was  due  to  powers  and  aptitudes  such  as  nature 
has  bestowed  upon  few. 

Mr.  Hollistcr  was  a  most  interesting  man  in  conversa- 
tion. His  original  way  of  treating  every-day  subjects,  of 
illuminating  dull  facts  with  irresistable  flashes  of  wit,  and 
of  illustrating  men  and  things  with  touches  of  poetical 
fancy,  gave  him  a  truly  wonderful  power  of  fascination  by 
talk.  Nor  was  he  in  the  least  overbearing  in  conversation, 
as  is  often  the  case  with  good  talkers,  but  added  the  influ- 
ence of  unfailing  politeness  to  marvelous  powers  of  persua- 
sion, such  as  one  must  have  felt  to  appreciate. 

He  was  the  author  of  a  considerable  number  of  pub- 
lished works.  He  published  three  historical  dramas,  one 
of  which  was  called  "Thomas  a  Becket."  His  treatise 
on  the  law  of  eminent  domain  is  a  valuable  work.  His 
novel,  "Kinlcy  Hollow,"  a  new  edition  of  which  has  ap- 
peared since  his  death,  pictures  some  phases  of  New  Eng- 
land life  more  clearly  than  any  other  book  we  have  seen. 
But  his  great  work  was  his  History  of  Connecticut,  first 
published  in  1855,  which  has  passed  through  several  edi- 
tions, and  is  a  standard  authority.  During  the  last  years 
of  his  life  he  was  engaged  in  writing  a  history  of  Hayti. 
He  was  deeply  interested  in  the  history  of  the  family 
whose  name  he  bore,  and  spent  a  great  deal  of  time  and 
money  in  collecting  information  relating  to  the  English

than  any  other  one  man,  and  we  are  greatly  indebted  to 
him  for  that  portion  of  this  volume. 

Gideon  H.  Hollister  was  an  exalted  citizen  whose  life 
was  without  blemish,  and  was  greatly  respected  by  all  who

the  Protestant-Episcopal  church.

opened  a  law-office  in  Salisbury,  Conn.,  where  he  remained 
until  1854,  when  in  April  of  that  year  he  removed  to 
Bridgeport,  Conn.,  where  he  has  since  resided.  He  was 
elected  judge  of  the  Probate  Court  for  the  district  of 
Bridgeport  in  1858,  and  reelected  in  1859;  appointed  col-

(1580.)    Sabrina«  Hollister  (Shaw). 
(Ezra?  Solomanf  Josiah?  Josiahf  Thomas?  John?  John'). 

Sabrinaf  daughter  of  Ezra^  Hollister  and  Lydia  Sears, 
was  born  in  Ovid,  Seneca  Co.,  N.Y.,  Sept.  28,  1798;  mar- 
ried William  Tennent  Shaw,  Feb.  29,  1820,  and  in  1883 
resided  with. her  daughter,  Mrs.  Joseph  A.  Jarvis,  at  Ithica, 
N.Y. 

William  Tennent  Shaw  was  born  in  Coleraine,  County 
Antrim,  Ireland,  July  13,  1796;  he  came  to  America  about 
the  year  1800  with  his  parents.  His  father  was  one  of  the 
leaders  of  the  rebellion  of  1798,  and  fled  to  this  country 
from  the  pursuit  of  the  enemy.  The  family  were  staunch 
Presbyterians.  His  mother  was  Isabella,  daughter  of  the 
Rev.  Dr.  William  Tennent,  who  preached  at  Belfast.  The 
family  spent  some  years  at  Newburgh,  on  the  Hudson,  and 
then  made  their  permanent  home  at  Summer  Hill,  Cayuga 
Co.,  N.Y.,  where  they  located  on  a  farm.  During  the  war 
of  18 1 2,  William  belonged  to  a  company  of  cavalry  at- 
tached to  a  regiment  of  which  his  elder  brother,  Daniel  J. 
Shaw,  was  colonel.  The  regiment  offered  its  services  to 
the  Government,  but  was  not  called  into  active  service. 
William's  father  was  a  great  lover  of  tobacco,  and  William 
fell  into  the  habit  of  using  it.     On  one  occasion  his  father 


EIGHTH   GENERATION.  427 

sent  him  for  a  pound  of  plug  tobacco  and  dividing  it,  gave 
half  to  William  and  told  him  to  note  whose  portion  lasted 
the  longest.  When  the  old  gentleman's  part  was  gone 
William  brought  him  his  portion  untouched,  and  from  that 
time  he  never  after  used  the  weed.  About  this  time  he 
was  engaged  in  distilling  whisky,  and  although  it  was  to 
him  a  pleasant  occupation,  he  gave  it  up  from  conscien- 
tious motives.  After  his  marriage  to  Sabrina  Hollister  in 
1820,  he  settle^  in  the  adjoining  town  of  Groton,  Tomp- 
kins Co.,  N.Y.  His  time  was  mostly  occupied  in  plain 
and  ornamental  painting,  and  in  farming.  He  and  his 
wife  were  members  of  the  Presbyterian  church  in  Groton. 
In  his  younger  years  he  was  a  Mason,  the  lodge  being  just 
across  the  street  from  his  house,  but  after  the  Morgan 
affair  his  connection  with  the  organization  seemed  to 
cease.  He  was  among  the  earliest  to  take  an  active  part 
in  Sunday-school  work  and  the  temperance  cause.  He 
lived  some  years  in  Cortland,  but  most  of  his  life  was 
spent  in  Summer  Hill,  where  he  died  July  2,  1870.

(1640.)    Miles^  Hollister. 
(Samuel?  Josiahf  Samuel?  Josiahf  Thomas?  John?  John'). 

Milesf  son  of  Samuel^  Hollister  and  Sybil  Norton,  was 
born  in  Mansfield,  N.Y.,  Aug.  22,  1829;  married  ist,  Or- 
celia  Alice  Griffith  of  East  Otto,  Mich.,  Jan.  22,  1851;  she

Minn.,  Aug.  28,  1862;  she  was  born  in  New  Hampshire, 
November,  1837. 

From  the  age  of  10  years,  Miles  Hollister  lived  most  of 
the  time  away  from  home,  working  at  different  places  in 
summers  and  attending  school  in  winters.  In  1846,  he 
went  to  live  with  his  eldest  brother,  Hannibal,  in  St. Clair 
County,  Mich.,  attending  school  in  Port  Huron  in  winters. 
Sickness  obliged  him  to  leave  Michigan,  and  he  returned 
to  New  York.  While  at  school  there  he  was  called  on  to 
undertake  the  difficult  task  of  teaching  an  unmanageable 
school  at  East  Otto  Corners.  He  was  advised  not  to  be- 
gin teaching  school  there,  as  for  5  years  there  had  been 
trouble  with  the  school.  He  however  resolved  to  do  it, 
and  although  he  taught  several  years  after  that,  he  declare.^ 
that  he  never  gave  his  patrons  or  himself  better  satisfac- 
tion than  that  winter. 


444  THE  HOLLISTER   FAMILY. 

In  1855,  he  settled  at  Faribault,  Minn.,  on  a  farm,  which 
he  left  the  next  year  to  engage  in  the  saw-and-grist-mill 
business  until  the  financial  crash  of  1857.  On  the  first 
organization  of  townships  in  Minnesota,  he  was  elected 
chairman  supervisor  of  Warsaw,  and  spent  the  summer  in 
surveying  roads.  In  the  fall  of  1858,  he  was  elected  clerk 
of  the  District  Court  for  Rice  County,  and  in  1861  he  was 
reelected,  having  in  the  meantime  been  twice  elected  town 
clerk  of  Faribault.  In  1862,  under  the  call  for  "six  hun- 
dred thousand  more,"  he  enlisted  and  assisted  in  raising  a 
company,  and  was  commissioned  first-lieutenant  of  Co.  B, 
8th  Minn.  Vol.  Inf  He  served  about  2  years  on  the  fron- 
tier, against  the  Indians,  acting  at  different  times  as  com- 
missary, quartermaster,  adjutant,  and  as  commandant  of 
Fort  Ripley.  In  the  fall  of  1864,  his  regiment  went  south 
and  participated  in  the  campaign  against  the  Confederate 
Gen.  Hood,  in  Tennessee.  On  the  reorganization  of  the 
23d  Army  Corps,  his  regiment  was  assigned  to  the  First 
Brigade,  ist  Div.  23d  A.  C,  Gen.  F.  H.  Ruger,  command- 
ing, who  assigned  him  to  duty  as  ordnance  officer  on  his 
staff  the  last  of  Dec,  1864,  in  which  capacity  he  acted 
until  April  10,  1865,  when  he  was  relieved  at  his  own  re- 
quest to  take  the  captaincy  of  Co.  K,  123d  U.-S.  C.  I., 
having  participated  in  several  battles  and  skirmishes,  the 
hottest  of  which  was  that  of  Wilkinson's  Pike,  near  Mur- 
freesboro,  Tenn.,  where  his  regiment  lost  ninety-six  men 
in  killed  and  wounded  in  about  twenty  minutes,  and  that 
of  Dover  Swamp,  or  Wise's  Forks,  in  North  Carolina,  in 
March,  1865,  where,  owing  to  Capt.  Hollister's  train  getting 
swamped,  his  division  came  near  getting  out  of  ammuni- 
tion, and  would  have  done  so  had  not  a  train  belonging  to 
Gen.  Carter's  division  opportunely  fallen  into  his  hands. 

On  his  way  to  join  his  new  regiment,  he  arrived  in 
Washington  the  morning  of  the  day  on  which  President 
Lincoln  was  assassinated.  He  joined  his  regiment  in  May 
and  was  mustered  out,  by  reason  of  close  of  the  war,  Oct. 
24,  1865,  having  commanded  his  company  and  regiment,

1865,  sick  with  chronic  hepatitis,  from  which  he  has  never 
fully  recovered.  He  has  since  engaged  in  milling  and

(1775.)    Albert  G.^  HoUister. 

(Johnf  John?  Elijah,^  Josiah*  Thomas?  Johnf  John*). 

Albert  G.?  son  of  John^  Hollister  and  Philena  Hubbard, 
was  born  near  Hanover,  Licking  Co:,  Ohio,  Oct.  11,  181 1. 
He  was  brought  up  on  the  farm,  and  in  addition  to  farm- 
ing, obtained  a  good  knowledge  of  the  milling  business. 
In  1838  he  emigrated  to  North-western  Missouri  and 
bought  land  in  the  counties  of  Andrew  and  Holt.  On  his 
farm  in  Holt  County  he  built  first,  a  saw-mill  and  soon 
afterward  a  grist-mill,  the  first  and  only  flour- mill  that 
part  of  the  country  could  Boast  of  for  many  years.  It 
supplied  bread-stuff  even  to  the  border  counties  of  Iowa 
and  Kansas.  Although  an  influential  citizen,  he  held  but 
few  offices.  In  the  earlier  years  of  his  residence  in  the 
State,  he  held  for  a  short  time  the  office  of  postmaster  and 
justice-of-the-peace.  In  i860  he  was  elected  representa- 
tive of  Holt  County,  and  in  1862  he  was  reelected.  He 
has  always  been  a  strong  advocate  of  compulsory  educa- 
tion, and  introduced  an  amendment  to  the  school  laws  of 
his  State  to.  that  effect.  Although  then  defeated,  he  had 
the  gratification  of  hearing  of  its  adoption  some  years 
after  he  had  ceased  to  be  a  resident  of  the  State.  The 
burning  of  his  mills  in  1866 -was  a  pecuniary  loss  he  never 
recovered  from.  He  removed  to  Santa  Barbara  Co.,  Cal., 
in  1 87 1,  where  he  now  lives,  his  post-office  address  being 
Goleta.  The  event  of  his  life  to  which  he  attaches  the 
most  importance,  is  his  having  been  chosen  one  of  the 
Seventy  who  went  to  Washington  in  the  winter  of  1862  to 
ask  President  Lincoln  for  a  change  of  policy  for  Missouri. 

He  married  ist,  Louisa  M.,  daughter  of  Howell  Wood-

(John?  John?  Elijah?  Josiah*  Thomas?  John,'  John'). 

William  Wellesf  son  of  John^  Hollister  and  Philena 
Hubbard,  was  born  near  Hanover,  Licking  Co.,  Ohio,  Jan. 
12,  18 18.  He  was  brought  up  on  the  farm  until  15  years 
of  age,  when  he  went  to  Kenyon  College,  where  he  re- 
mained four  or  five  years,  his  health  not  permitting  him  to 
take  a  regular  course.  His  father  dying  in  1839,  ^^^  his 
eyes  failing,  he  left  college  without  graduating  and  went 
to  farming  and  merchandising  until  1852,  when  he  sold  his 
farm  and  stock  of  goods  and  bought  two  or  three  hundred 
head  of  cattle  and  started  across  the  plains  for  California, 
where  he  sold  his  cattle  and  returned  immediately  to  Ohio. 
The  next  year,  he  with  his  brother,  Joseph,  and  his  sister, 
Mrs.  L.  A.  Brown,  bought  eight  or  nine  thousand  sheep 
and  about  two  hundred  head  of  cattle  and  started  across 
the  plains  about  the  first  day  of  May,  with  eleven  wagons 
and  ten  or  twelve  horses.  There  were  fifty  men  in  th^ 
train  and  four  ladies  with  Mrs.  Brown.  They  were  fifteen 
months  on  the  way,  turning  south  at  Salt  Lake,  they  went

part  of  California,  and  then  up  the  coast  to  Monterey, 
where  he  bought  his  first  ranch,  San  Justo.  In  1869  he 
sold  that  and  bought  3000  acres  of  the  Dos  Pueblos  ranch 
in  Santa  Barbara  County,  where  he  now  lives,  his  post- 
office  address  being  Santa  Barbara.  The  town  of  Hollis- 
ter  in  Monterey  County  was  named  after  him. 

Mr.  Hollister  has  never  held  any  offices,  having  been 
too  busy  to  care  for  them.  He  has  long  been  known  as 
the  largest  wool-grower  in  the  State  and  is  also  largely 
inte/ested  in  fruit-raising,  having  more  than  twenty  thou- 
sand fruit  trees  of  every  variety  adapted  to  the  climate  of 
California.  He  has  also  gained  considerable  celebrity  for 
his  letters  on  cheap  labor. 

He  married  Annie,  daughter  of  S.  L.  James  of  San

William,  and  after  disposing  of  his  share  of  the  stock,  re- 
turned to  Ohio  in  1856.  He  at  once  bought  another  flock 
of  sheep,  and  in  1857  started  with  his  partner,  J.  W.  Cooper, 
to  drive  them  across  the  plains  to  California.  He  was  de- 
tained by  the  Mormon  trouble,  turned  south  into  New 
Mexico,  and  owing  to  the  lateness  of  the  season,  was 
obliged  to  winter  there.  The  next  year  they  succeeded 
in  getting  into  Southern  California.  In  i860  he  returned

4^8  THE  hoLlister  family. 

(182 1.)    Maria  Prudence^  Hollister  (Stanley). 
(Benjamin?  Johnf  Elijah?  Josiah?  Thomas?  John?  John'). 

Maria  Prudence?  daughter  of  Benjamin^  Hollister  and 
Prudence^  Hollister,  was  born  in  Glastonbury,  Conn., 
March  31,  1828.  She  married  Gen.  Timothy  Robbins 
Stanley  of  Chattanooga,  Tenn.,  Dec.  18,  1867,  as  his  second 
wife.  They  had  no  children.  After  his  death  she  re- 
moved to  Glastonbury,  Conn.,  where  she  now  lives  with 
her  brother,  Isaac  Newton  Hollister.  Mrs.  Stanley  has 
been  very  much  interested  in  the  genealogy  of  the  Hollis- 
ter Family,  and  has  rendered  much  valuable  assistance  to 
the  compiler  of  this  work,  which  he  takes  great  pleasure  in 
here  acknowledging. 

Gen.  T.  R.  Stanley  was  born  near  Hartford,  Conn.,  May 
14,  1810,  and  emigrated  with  his  parents  to  Marietta,  0.» , 
in  181 5.  He  represented  Lawrence  County  in  the  Ohio 
legislature  in  1846,  and  was  State  senator  in  i860  for 
Meigs,  Gallatin,  Vinton,  and  Jackson  Counties.  The  iron 
interests  of  Southern  Ohio  were  greatly  promoted  by  his 
influence.  He  entered  the  army  as  colonel  of  the  i8th 
Inf.,  Ohio  Vol.,  and  served  first  in  W.  Virginia.  He 
afterward  reorganized  the  regiment  and  led  it  at  Stone 
River,  Chickamauga,  and  other  closely  contested  fields. 
Much  of  the  time  his  command  embraced  a  brigade  or 
division,  and  the  brevet  rank  of  brigadier-general  has  been 
seldom  more  worthily  bestowed.  He  came  early  to  Chat- 
tanooga and  was  for  some  time  commander  of  this  post. 
Many  whose  sympathies  and  efforts  were  opposed  to  Gen. 
Stanley's  have  given  voluntary  testimony  to  his  magna- 
nimity. 

When  the  war  was  over  he  established  the  law  firm  of 
Stanley,  Henderson,  and  Wheeler,  early  in  1865.  Later  in 
the  same  year  he,  with  others,  founded  the  First  National 
Bank,  of  which  he  was  the  vice-president  until  his  death. 

Gen.  Stanley  has  four  living  sons  who  are  all  copying 
the  excellent  example  of  their  father.     Two  are  ministers, 


kiGHTH   GENERATION*.  48^ 

one  of  these,  Rev.  T.  W.  Stanley  of  the  Ohio  conference, 
has  been  for  years  annually  elected  secretary  of  that  body. 
Rev.  George  Stanley  of  California,  for  conscience  sake  left 
more  promising  fields  to  serve  in  missionary  work  in  the 
far  West.  Another  son,  Henry,  is  extensively  engaged  in 
business  in  the  same  State,  while  Mr.  Charles  Stanley, 
treasurer  of  this  city,  is  too  well  known  to  require  a  further 
notice. 

Gen.  Stanley  was  stricken  with  paralysis,  Feb.  16,  1869, 
and  died  July  8,  1874. 

We  cannot  forbear  to  note  the  pointed  devotion  of  his 
excellent  wife  during  all  these  years  of  his  suffering.  Her 
duty  done  is  her  best  reward. 

In  mind  and  morals,  as  in  person,  Gen.  Stanley  was 
vsuperior  to  most  of  his  race.  During  the  war  no  soldier 
was  turned  away  by  his  sternness,  and  no  superior  officer 
but  heard  his  opinions  with  respect.  His  sense  of  duty 
was  the  ruling  impulse  of  his  treatment,  and  those  in  low 
degree  were  protected  by  it,  and  those  in  high  degree  were 
forced  to  respect  it. 

The  Methodist  church,  of  which  he  was  many  years  a 
member,  was  cherished  by  him ;  especially  in  this  city  has 
he  been  regarded  as  a  leader  and  chief  reliance  by  both 
pastor  and  people.

He  is  a  wealthy  farmer,  residing  in  S.  Glastonbury,  Conn. 
He  is  unmarried,  his  home  being  presided  over  by  his 
sister,  Mrs.  Gen.  Stanley.  He  is  a  member  of  the  M.-E. 
church,  and  is  one  of  the  most  influential  men  of  the 
town.

JohnO. 
Horacef  son  of  Alanson^  HoUister  and  Sally  Goodrich, 
was  born  in  Salem,  Wayne  Co.,  Penn.,  Nov.  2.  1822.  He 
received  a  common-school  education  at  home  and  an  aca- 
demic one  at  Bethany  and  Honesdale  in  1840-43;  spent 
the  summers  of  1837-38  in  boating  on  the  North  Branch 
canal.  Union  canal,  and  Schuylkill  canal,  as  Capt.  Hollis- 
ter;  then  studied  medicine  and  graduated  at  the  Univer- 
sity of  the  City  of  New  York  in  March.  1846,  and  began 
practice  at  Providence,  Penn.,  where  for  more  than  35 
years  he  has  resided.  Dr.  Hollister  is  of  an  original  and 
somewhat  eccentric  character,  blunt,  and  even  rude  in  his 
manners,  yet  kind,  true,  and  benevolent.  His  literary 
taste  and  thorough  knowledge  of  the  valley  have  enabled 
him  to  write  the  "History  of  the  Lackawanna  Valley," 
"Coal  Notes,"  "History  of  the  Delaware  and  Hudson 
Canal  Company,"  "Recollections  of  Our  Physicians,"  and 
many  newspaper  and  magazine  articles  of  interest.  The 
doctor  is  a  great  student  and  lover  of  archaeological  mat- 
ters, and  has  given  assiduous  attention  to  collecting  and 
arranging  the  Indian  relics  of  the  country.  His  immense 
collection,  open  and  free  to  the  public,  is  acknowledged  to 
be  the  largest  and  most  complete  in  America  or  Europe, 
and  embraces  20,000  pieces  of  stone,  burnt  clay,  bone,  and 
copper,  representing  every  known  weapon  of  Indian  war- 
fare and  every  variety  of  stone  implement  once  used  by 
the  savages.  The  collection  is  valued  at  $10,000,  and 
Prof  Henry  of  the  Smithsonian  Institute  at  Washington, 
and  his  successor.  Prof.  Baird,  made  repeated  and  unsuc- 
cessful efforts  to  obtain  it  for  that  institution.  Dr.  HoUis- 
ter affiliates  with  no  church,  accepts  no  creeds,  dogmas,  or 
doctrines  recognized  by  the  majority,  believes  in  the 
golden  rule,  and  looks  carefully  and  gratuitously  after  the 
physical  needs  of  all  ministers  of  the  gospel,  indigent 
widows,  and  children  living  within  his  precinct.     He  is  a

5o6  THE  HOLLISTER   FAMILY. 

T.  Clark,  was  bom  in  Pendleton,  N.Y.,  Sept.  23,  1843. 
His  mother  died  when  he  was  3  years  old,  and  when  8 
years  of  age  he  left  his  father  s  home  and  began  earning 
his  living,  working  in  a  grocery-store  and  drug-store.  In 
1857,  he  went  to  Milwaukee,  Wis.,  and  worked  3  summers 
with  his  brother  Lauren,  who  was  an  engineer,  going  to 
school  in  the  winters  at  Horicon  and  Dodge's  Comers,  Wis. 
He  lived  afterward  at  Waterford,  Wis.,  and  attended  school 
at  Allen  Grove  Academy,  under  the  instmction  of  those 
excellent  teachers,  M.  Montague  and  Miss  M.  G.  Sherman. 
It  was  here  he  met  the  lady  who  afterward  became  his 
wife. 

In  August,  1862,  before  he  was  19,  he  enlisted  in  Co.  F, 
22d  Reg't  Wis.  Vol.  Inf.,  and  served  in  Kentucky  and  Ten- 
nessee, chasing  up  Morgan's  guerillas.  At  Nicholasville, 
Ky.,  he  had  charge  of  the  regimental  hospital.  While  what 
was  left  of  his  regiment  after  the  battle  of  Thompson's 
Station,  Tenn.,  were  guarding  the  quartermasters  stores 
at  Brentwood,  Tenn.,  they  were  surprised  and  captured  by 
a^  large  force  of  Forrest's  mounted  men,  and  taken  to 
Columbia,  Tenn.,  where  he  was  left  in  a  weak  condition, 
by  a  bilious  attack,  in  a  rebel  hospital  for  a  short  time, 
with  many  of  his  brigade  who  were  wounded  and  captured 
at  Thompson's  Station.  The  mortality  among  his  com- 
rades was  so  great  there  that,  fearing  his  own  time  would 
soon  come,  he  bribed  one  of  the  attendants  with  a  five- 
dollar  greenback  to  assist  him  off  on  the  road  to  Rich- 
mond, Va.,  which  he  did. 

After  remaining  in  Libby  Prison  42  days,  he  was  ex- 
changed, more  dead  than  alive,  and  went  into  the  hospital 
at  Annapolis,  Md.  After  convalescence,  he  went  to  Wash- 
ington, D.C.,  and,  after  examination  before  Gen.  Casey's 
military  board,  received  a  first-class  ist-lieutenant's  com- 
mission in  the  30th  Reg't  U.-S.  C.  T.  Getting  a  leave  of 
absence,  he  went  to  Darien,  Wis.,  and  married  Jennie, 
daughter  of  Cyms  and  Mary  M.  Farnsworth,  March  3, 
1864.     Returning  to  the  army,  he  was  assigned  to  duty  in

organizing  and  sending  recruits  to  the  front  at  Camp 
Birney,  Baltimore,  Md.  Hard  work  and  exposure  here 
brought  on  a  severe  attack  of  rheumatism.  After  partially 
recovering  from  this,  he  joined  his  regiment  at  Annapolis, 
and  went  with  it  through  the  Wilderness  campaign  into 
the  trenches  at  Petersburgh,  Va. 

His  health  failing,  he  was  sent  to  the  rear,  and  was  after- 
ward in  detached  service  at  Camp  Cadwallader,  Philadel- 
phia, Penn.,  and  while  on  duty  there  as  mustering  officer, 
he  resigned,  June  12,  1865,  and  went  to  Clinton,  Wis.,  and 
engaged  in  the  drug  business.  He  took  an  actiye  part  in 
village  and  church  matters,  was  one  of  the  organizers  of 
the  Rock  Co.  S.-S.  Association,  of  which  he  was  its  active 
president  for  several  years  until  he  removed  from  the 
county.  His  wife  died  April  26,  1874,  and  he  sold  out 
his  business  and  went  to  Madison,  Wis.,  where  he  is  now 
engaged  in  the  wholesale  and  retail  drug  trade.  He  was 
one  of  the  organizers  of  the  Wisconsin  Pharmaceutical 
Association  in  1880;  chairman  of  its  first  meeting;  took 
an  active  part  in  securing  a  pharmacy  law  for  the  State; 
was  commissioned  a  member  of  the  State  Board  of  Phar- 
macy, and  reappointed  his  own  successor  for  5  years; 
chairman  of  the  commission  that  secured  the  passage  of 
a  law  regulating  the  sale  of  liquors  by  druggists,  which  is 
an  equitable  and  just  law  and  a  credit  to  the  druggists 
of  the  State;  is  ist  vice-president  of  the  American  Phar- 
maceutical Association,  and  president  of  the  National 
Retail  Druggists'  Association.  He  was  the  first  mover  to 
secure  the  establishment  of  the  Lake  Monona  Assembly, 
patterned  after  Chautauqua,  and  called  the  "Chautauqua 
of  the  West,"  of  which  he  has  always  been  one  of  the  most 
active  promoters.  He  is  a  graduate  of  Chautauqua,  a 
member  of  the  Congregational  church,  of  the  G.  A.  R., 
the  Loyal  Legion  of  the  U.  S.,  the  Masonic  Order,  and 
the  A.  O.  U.  W.  He  was  a  member  of  the  city  council  2 
years. 

He  married  2d,  K.  E.  VanHoesen,  Oct.  3,  1876;  she  is

in  Waterloo,  Iowa,  in  1856.  He  married  Eunice  Eliza

had  very  little  to  do  with  politics,  though  he  has  consented 
to  hold  a  few  of  the  minor  toyvn -offices.  His  farm  of 
about  300  acres  is  beautifully  situated  in  the  fertile  Black- 
Hawk  Valley,  about  a  mile  and  a-half  southwest  of  the 
city  of  Waterloo,  a  place  of  about  7000  inhabitants,  which 
has  almost  entirely  grown  up  since  he  first  settled  there.

Christopher  Francisf  son  of  Eleanor  Drake^  Hollister 
and  Ashbel  Wesley  Case,  was  born  in  South  Manchester, 
Conn.,  Nov.  i,  1839.  He  went  West  with  his  parents,  and 
after  the  death  of  his  father,  lived  with  his  brother  Fred- 
erick until  he  was  about  20  years  of  age.  He  spent  most 
of  his  time  for  4  or  5  years  in  getting  an  education,  attend- 
ing school  at  Waterloo,  Beloit  College,  and  the  Michigan 
University,  and  teaching  school  part  of  the  time  to  defray 
expenses.  He  left  the  university  without  taking  his  degree 
at  the  end  of  his  junior  year.  He  spent  one  summer  in 
the  army,  being  stationed  at  Memphis,  Tenn.;  the  next 
summer  he  spent  in  the  government  service,  in  the  survey 
of  Lake  Superior,  his  field  of  labor  being  in  the  vicinity 
of  Houghton's  Point;  the  next  year  he  spent  in  the  office 
of  the  Kalamazoo  Telegraph,  preparing  himself  for  the 
profession  he  intended  to  adopt,  and,  in  1866,  bought  the 
Clarksville  (Iowa)  Star,  and  began  the  business  of  pub- 


542  THE   HOLLISTER    FAMILY. 

lishing  a  newspaper,  which  he  has  ever  since    followed. 
He  published  the  Star  until   1872,  when  he  went  to  Cali- 
fornia, with  the  intention  of  settling  there;  but  after  several 
months  travel  in  that  State  aiid  Oregon,  he  returned  by 
way  of  Panama  and  the  West  Indies  to  New  York,  and 
back  to  Iowa,  and  selling  his  paper  at  Clarksville,  bought 
the  Wavcrly  (Iowa)  Republican.    Just  before  buying  the 
latter  paper,  he  made  a  second  and  shorter  visit  to  Cali- 
fornia, but  was  not  satisfied  to  make  his  permanent  home 
there.     He  published  the  Wave;  ly  Republican  until   1875, 
when  he  sold   it  and   removed  to  Marshall,   Minn.,  and 
bought  the  Prairie  Schooner,  the  name  of  which  he  shortly 
afterward  changed  to  the  Marshall  Messenger^  and  pub- 
lished it  until  the  end  of  1884,  when  he  sold  it,  and  went 
to  New  Orleans  to  spend  the  winter. 

He  has  been  an  active  and  influential  citizen  of  Mar- 
shall, and  has  done  much  to  develop  its  interests.  He 
was  appointed  postmaster  in  1879,  by  President  Hayes, 
and  held  that  office  4  years.  He  has  also  held  several  of 
the  town-offices  there.  In  1884,  he  wrote  a  history  of 
Lyon  County,  Minn.,  of  which  Marshall  is  the  county-seat, 
and  published  a  map  of  the  county,  giving  the  names  of 
all  the  residents  of  the  county,  location  of  the  farms,  etc., 
both  of  which  are  very  interesting  contributions  to  the 
local  history  of  Minnesota.  In  1886,  he  was  president  of 
the  board  of  education. 

He  married  Caroline  Frances  Waller,  Nov.  6,  1873;  she 
is  a  daughter  of  William  Waller  and  Adeline  A.  Shipman, 
and  was  born  in  Millcrsburgh,  Mercer  Co.,  111.,  April  3, 
1852.

EIGHTH  GENERATION.  543 

(2272.)    Lafayette  Wallace^  Case. 

(Eleanor^  Hollister,  Pierpont?  Josiah?  Thomasf  Thomasj* 

John?  John'). 

Lafayette  Wallacef  son  of  Eleanor  Drake^  Hollister  and 
Ashbel  Wesley  Case,  was  born  in  South  Manchester, 
Conn.,  April  7,  1845.  He  went  West  with  his  parents  in 
1854;  first  to  Rockton,  111.,  and  then  to  Waterloo,  Iowa, 
where  they  settled.  He  lived  with  his  oldest  brother 
Frederick  until  he  was  about  21  years  of  age,  working  on 
the  farm  and  attending  school  in  the  winters.  Being 
naturally  of  a  studious  turn  of  mind,  he  determined  not 
to  engage  in  farming,  and  after  completing  his  course  in 
the  Waterloo  high-school,  he  began  the  study  of  medicine 
.  with  Dr.  A.  Middleditch,  one  of  the  earliest  and  most 
successful  physicians  of  Black- Hawk  County.  Remain- 
ing 3  years  with  the  doctor,  he  entei^d  Rush  Medical 
College,  at  Chicago,  and  graduated  at  that  institution  in 
1870.  During  the  last  year  of  his  course  at  the  college, 
and  for  i  year  afterward,  he  was  first  assistant  to  Dr.  Jas. 
V.  Z.  Blaney,  president  of  the  college  and  professor  of 
chemistry.  He  was  then  appointed  lecturer  on  chemistry, 
and  held  that  position  for  5  years,  and  was  then  transferred 
to  the  chair  of  dermatology  in  the  same  institution,  and 
occupied  that  place  until  April  7,  1885,  when  his  private 
engagements  having  become  so  pressing  upon  his  time,  he 
resigned. 

Shortly  after  graduating,  Dr.  Case  was  appointed  physi- 
cian to  the  North-Chicago  Charity  Dispensary,  and  occu- 
pied that  position  at  the  time  of  the  great  fire  in  1871. 
With  a  few  remnants  saved  from  the  fire  just  before  the 
college  burned  down,  by  Dr.  R.  L.  Leonard,  one  of  the 
physicians  of  the  dispensary,  and  one  hundred  dollars 
worth  of  medicines  supplied  by  the  Chicago  Relief  and 
Aid  Society,  the  two  young  physicians  secured  a  corner 
of  the  Newberry  School,  just  on  the  limits  of  the  burnt 
district,  and  opened  a  free  dispensary  for  the  sufferers  from 


544  '''*^**-    llOLLISTER    FAMILY. 

the  fire.  This  was  the  only  place  at  which  medicines 
could  be  obtained  in  the  north  division  of  the  city  at  that 
time,  every  drug-store  having  been  burned.  There  was 
no  lack  of  patients,  as  everybody  was  poor  and  many  sick. 
In  November  of  that  year,  the  Chicago  Relief  and  Aid 
Society  assumed  control  of  the  dispensary,  and  Dr.  Case 
was  appointed  physician  in  charge;  and  the  dispensary 
was  removed  to  the  north  division  headquarters  of  the 
Relief  and  Aid  Society.  During  the  6  months  which  fol- 
lowed. Dr.  Case  examined  about  10,000  patients,  devoting 
his  entire  time  to  the  work.  In  April,  1872,  he  opened  a 
private  office,  and  resigned  his  position  in  the  dispensary. 
Since  that  time  he  has  been  busily  occupied  with  the  prac- 
tice of  his  profession  in  Chicago.  He  is  a  member  of  the 
Chicago  Medical  Society  and  of  the  Medico- Historical 
Society.  In  1880-81,  he  was  an  associate-editor  of  the 
•* Chicago  Medical*Journal  and  Examiner,*'  his  duties  being 
the  translation  of  articles  from  the  PVench  and  Italian 
medical  journals  for  the  abstract  department. 

About  the  year  1880,  he  became  much  interested  in  the 
subject  of  genealogy,  and  having  a  somewhat  extended 
record  of  his  ancestors,  left  by  his  father,  he  determined 
to  carry  the  record  still  further  back,  and  to  that  end 
began  a  correspondence  with  his  immediate  relatives. 
Encouraged  by  the  result,  he  went  to  Connecticut  the 
next  year  and  made  a  more  extended  investigation,  the 
result  of  which  was  to  determine  him  to  undertake  the 
compilation  of  a  genealogical  history  of  the  Hollister 
family  In  America.  Since  that  time,  a  large  share  of  his 
leisure  time  has  been  devoted  to  that  work,  and  he  has 
entered  into  a  correspondence  reaching  to  nearly  every 
portion  of  the  United  States,  and  requiring  several  thou- 
sand letters. 

He  married  Jean  Maxwell,  Aug.  15,  1878;  she  is  a 
daughter  of  the  late  William  Maxwell  of  Chicago  and 
Jean^Kinloch,  and  was  born  in  Champlain,  N.Y.,  Feb.  15, 
1856.     Her  parents  came  from  Scotland  in  1849.  and  after 


KIGHTH   GENERATION.  545 

having  spent  a  few  years  in  Vermont,  Canada,  and  New 
York,  came  to  Chicago  in  1856,  and  settled  there  perma- 
nently. Jean  Maxwell  graduated  at  the  Chicago  Normal 
School  in  1876,  and  taught  for  2  years  in  the  public 
schools  of  Chicago.  Her  father  was  a  son  of  James  Ma.\- 
well  and  Janet  Black,  and  was  born  in  Scotland,  Jan.  14, 
1822;  he  was  an  engineer,  and  died  in  Chicago,  111..  July 
26,  1862.  Jean  Kinloch,  his  wife,  was  born  in  Scotland, 
March  28,  1821,  and  is  a  daughter  of  Henry  Kinloch  and 
Jean  Faulds;  Henry  Kinloch  was  born  in  1790,  and  died 
March  29,  1874;  he  was  a  son  of  Henry  Kinloch  and 
Jean  Findley.  Jean  Faulds,  his  wife,  was  born  in  1793, 
and  died  in  1857.  Henry  Kinloch,  2d,  and  Jean  Faulds 
were  married  in  18 16.  Jean  Kinloch  and  William  Max- 
well were  married  June  19,  1846.

Aug.  7,  1857;  removed  from  Springfield,  Mass.,  to  Water- 
loo, la.,  with  his  parents  in  1867;  worked  on  a  farm  here 
for  a  few  years,  then  went  into  the  jewelry  and  engraving 
business  at  Iowa  Falls,  where  he  remained  until  1885, 
when  he  rented  F.  W.  Case's  farm  at  Waterloo,  la.,  and 
engaged  in  farming;  married  May  Reed,  Nov.  22,  1881. 
She  was  born  in  Monmouth,  111.,  April  9,  1858,  and  is  a 
daughter  of  the  late  Hon.  James  H.  Reed  and  his  first 
wife, Stackpole.  James  H.  Reed  was  born  in  Bos- 
ton, Mass.,  Aug.  1,1819.  I*^  early  life  he  taught  .school  in 
Ohio  and  Pennsylvania.  In  1852  he  removed  to  Illinois, 
and  engaged  in  manufacturing  in  Mercer  County.  Busi- 
ness proving  unfortunate,  he  resumed  teaching.  On  the 
opening  of  the  Fremont  campaign  in  1856,  he  was  induced 
to  take  editorial  charge  of  the  Oquawka  Plaindealer,  and 
in  that  calling  manifested  an  ability  and  zeal  that  gave 
him  a  leading  position  as  editor  and  public  speaker.  In 
1857  he  removed  to  Aledo,  111.,  and  in  connection  with 
Horace  Bigelow  established  the  Aledo  Record,  which  by

his  energy  and  editorial  ability,  surpassed  its  competitors 
in  that  county,  and  proved  a  success.  He  labored  here  till 
1863,  when  he  removed  to  Grundy  Co.,  la.,  and  engaged 
in  farming.  His  health  failing,  he  removed  to  Monmouth, 
111.,  in  1865,  and  purchased  a  half-interest  in  the  Ai/as 
establishment.  During  33^  years  he  labored  with  pen  and 
voice  for  what  he  believed  to  be  the  best  interests  of  the 
Republican  party  as  well  as  the  public.  In  all  movements 
of  local  concern,  his  counsel  was  sought  and  opinions 
valued,  and  he  was  known  to  nearly  every  good  word  and 
work  as  long  as  his  strength  would  allow  him  to  partici- 
pate therein.  In  May,  1869,  he  sold  his  interest  in  the 
Atlas  and  accepted  the  appointment  from  President  Grant 
of  internal  revenue  assessor  for  the  4th  district,  which  pos- 
ition he  held  until  the  office  was  abolished  in  1873,  dis- 
charging every  trust  with  advantage  to  the  Government 
and  credit  to  himself  By  this  time  his  health  was  so 
much  impaired  as  to  unfit  him  for  active  business.  The 
last  few  years  of  his  life  were  pecuniarily  successful,  and 
he  was  enabled  to  make  comfortable  provision  for  his 
family.  He  died  Aug.  14,  1874.  His  first  wife's  name 
was  Stackpole,  by  whom  he  had  6  children,  5  girls  and  I 
boy.  His  second  wife  was  Mrs.  Tucker.  Mrs.  May  (Reed) 
Hollister  died  in  Waterloo,  Iowa,  Sept.  14,  1886.

566  THE   MOLUSTER   FAMILY. 

(2487.)    Maria  Amanda^  Hollister  (Upton). 
(Joseph?  Joseph?  Joseph?  Josephs  Joseph?  Johnf  John')- 

Maria  Amandaf  daughter  of  Joseph^  Hollister  and 
Amanda  Adams,  was  born  at  Danby,  N.Y.,  Aug^.  13, 
18 1 8.  She  lived  with  her  parents  successively  at  Danby, 
Spencer,  LeRoy,  and  Victor,  N.Y.  At  Victor  she  ^'as 
married  to  William  W.  Upton,  Feb.  8,  1840,  and  removed 
to  Victor,  Mich.  She  shared  with  her  husband  the  hard- 
ships of  life  in  a  new  countr>%  crossed  the  plains  with  him 
and  her  3  children  in  1852,  shared  the  political  honors 
which  his  fellow-citizens  delighted  in  awarding  her  hus- 
band, and  died  just  as  financial  prosperity  was  beginning 
to  reward  his  labors.  Her  death  from  pneumonia  in  child- 
bed occurred  at  Sacramento,  Cal.,  Dec.  24,  1858.  A^lady 
who  knew  her  intimately  in  her  younger  days,  says:  "I 
remember  her  as  a  lovely  girl  of  15.  Her  mother  was  an 
Adams.  The  women  of  the  Adams  family  were  generally 
good  looking,  and  some  of  them  were  very  handsome. 
Most  of  them  were  bright,  vivacious,  and  more  than  ordi- 
narily attractive,  but  of  excellent  sense  and  character.  In 
all  these  respects  Mrs.  Upton  resembled  the  Adamses,  but 
she  was  of  a  lighter  complexion ;  she  was  of  medium  hight, 
with  a  fine,  trim,  graceful  figure,  the  rosy  cheeks  and  blue 
eyes  of  the  Adamses,  and  the  beautiful  brown  hair  of  the 
Hollisters,  whom  she  resembled  mentally."  A  very  old 
gentleman,  who  knew  her  all  her  life,  says:  "She  had  an 
unusually  amiable  disposition ;  I  never  saw  her  angry. 
She  was  at  once  energetic  and  studious.  Her  education 
was  better  than  that  of  most  young  ladies,  and  though  she 
never  neglected  her  domestic  duties,  she  managed  to  keep 
informed  of  the  world's  progress  in  literature  and  science 
to  an  unusual  extent.  She  was  a  mother  of  whom  her 
children  may  well  be  proud,  whose  memory  they  may  well 
cherish.  She  acted  well  her  part  in  all  the  duties  of  life 
and  under  all  circumstances,  and  she  is  now  a  saint  in 
heaven.'* 


EIGHTH   GENERATION.  567 

Hon.  William  W.  Upton,  her  husband,  was  the  son  of 
James  and  Olive  (Boughton)  Upton  of  Victor,  N.Y.,  in 
which  town  he  was  born,  July  1 1,  18 17.  His  father,  James 
Upton,  was  descended  from  a  gentle  English  family,  which 
may  be  traced  back  nearly  to  the  Conquest,  through  that 
John  Upton  who  was  at  Salem,  Mass.,  about  1650.  His 
father  being  wealthy,  William  W.  Upton  received  a  thor- 
ough English  education,  with  a  fair  knowledge  of  Greek, 
Latin,  and  French;  the  latter  tongues  he  always  read  flu- 
ently. He  went  to  Victor,  Mich.,  in  the  winter  of  1837-8; 
returned  to  Victor,  N.Y.,  in  Sept.,  1838;  married,  and  in 
March,  1840,  returned  to  Victor,  Mich.,  where  he  was 
admitted  to  the  bar.  He  was  supervisor  of  Victor,  1840-5  ; 
surveyor  of  Clinton  County,  Mich.,  1841-5;  removed  to 
DeWitt,  Mich.,  1845;  was  treasurer  of  Clinton  County, 
1845-7;  member  of  the  legislature  that  made  Lansing  the 
capital;  returned  to  Lansing  in  1847,  ^"^  built  the  first 
house  in  that  town  not  built  of  logs.  He  was  appointed 
district  attorney  of  Ingham  County,  1848;  elected  to  the 
same  office  for  2  terms  of  2  years  each  in  1849  and  1851 ; 
resigned  and  started  for  California,  April  i,  1852.  In 
California,  he  first  settled  at  Weaverville,  but  soon  re- 
moved to  Sacramento.  In  that  State  he  was  a  member 
of  the  legislature,  district  attorney  for  Sacramento  Co., 
and  held  many  other  offices.  He  was  urged  to  be  a  can- 
didate for  congress,  when  the  condition  of  his  children's 
health  compelled  him  to  seek  a  more  bracing  climate.  He 
removed  to  Portland,  Oregon,  in  the  spring  of  1865;  was 
member  of  the  legislature  in  1866;  was  appointed  a  jus- 
tice of  the  supreme  court  of  Oregon,  for  the  fourth  (the 
most  populous)  district,  in  1867;  was  elected  to  the  same 
position  for  a  term  of  6  years  in  1868,  and  was  chief-justice 
from  1872  to  1874.  He  then  returned  to  the  practise  of 
his  profession,  but  in  1877  was  appointed  second  comp- 
troller of  the  United- States  Treasury,  and  removed  to 
Washington,  D.C.  He  filled  this  office  for  about  7  years, 
but  as  soon  as  President  Cleveland  was  inaugurated  he

tendered  bis  resignation,  and  on  its  being  accepted,  June 
I,  1885,  he  resumed  tbe  practise  of  bis  profession  in  Wash- 
ington, D.C.  In  the  same  year  appeared  bis  "Digest  of 
Decisions  of  tbe  Second  Comptroller  of  the  Treasur>', 
from  1 869.  to  1884,"  a  work  of  great  value  and  learning. 

Judge  Upton  was  a  Democrat  until  1861,  but  in  that 
year  followed  Stephen  A.  Douglas  to  tbe  support  of  Presi- 
dent Lincoln,  and  has  ever  since  acted  with  the  Republi- 
can party.  Though  he  has  held  office  most  of  his  life,  he 
was  never  defeated  in  an  election. 

He  married  2d,  Marietta  Bryan,  March  29,  i860.  By 
her  he  has  had  3  children,  only  one  of  whom  survived,  vis.: 
Ralph  Richard  Upton,  bom  at  Portland,  Oregon,  June  12, 
1869.     He  now  lives  at  Washington,  D.C.

the  usual  accomplishments  of  the  most  re-

able  to  give  one  brother  the  mathematical 
training  necessary  to  admit  him  to  Yale  Col- 
lege, and  to  fit  another  brother  for  West 
Point.  Her  life  was  devoted  to  doing  good, 
and  those  who  knew  her  best  will  ever  believe 
that  in  her  perished  the  most  gentle  heart 
and  the  keenest  intellect  of  her  race.

death  of  his  sister  he  resigned,  and  went  to 
Washington  to  live  with  his  father.  He  was

June  19,  1854;  graduated  at  the  Portland  Academy  in 
1 87 1,  but  continued  to  study  in  Portland  until  1873,  when 
he  entered  Yale  Collie.  He  took  the  classical  course, 
and  graduated  (B.A.)  at  Yale  in  1877;  then  went  to  Wash- 
ington City,  whither  his  father  had  removed,  and  occupied 
a  clerical  position  in  the  office  of  Hon.  R.  W.  Thompson, 
secretary  of  the  navy.  He  graduated  from  the  law  depart- 
ment of  Columbia  University,  receiving  the  degree  of 
LL.B.  in  1879  «i"d  M.L.  in  1880;  was  admitted  to  the  bar 
of  the  supreme  court  of  D.C.  by  Chief-Justice  Cartter, 
and  in  July,  1880,  formed  a  law  partnership  with  his 
brother,  Hon.  Charies  B.  Upton,  at  Walla  Walla,  Wash-

member  of  the  Harleian  Society,  and  secretary  and  one 
of  the  trustees  of  the  Columbia  &  Palouse  R.R.  Co. 

A  large  number  of  family  papers  and  other  documents 
relating  to  the  genealogy  of  English  and  American  Hoi- 
listers  having  come  into  the  hands  of  Mr.  Upton,  he  felt 
it  incumbent  upon  him  to  secure  their  preservation   by 


NINTH   GENERATION.  675 

printing  a  history  of  the  HoUisters,  and  he  had  begun  to 
collect  material  for  such  a  work  when  he  learned  that  Dr. 
L.  W.  Case  was  engaged  in  the  same  field.  He  therefore 
cheerfully  placed  all  his  data  at  the  disposal  of  Dr.  Case, 
and  he  did  so  the  more  willingly  because  he  felt  that  his 
absorbing  professional  duties  prevented  him  from  doing 
full  justice  to  a  work  that  would  have  been  to  him  decid- 
edly a  labor  of  love. 

Mr.  Upton  made  a  flying  trip  to  Washington  City  in 
1 88 1,  and  there  married,  June  23,  1881,  Georgia  Louise

MISCELLANEOUS. 


Families  whose  descent  from '  Lieut.  John  Hollister  have  not 

been  certainly  traced. 


(4918.)    Gurdom  Hollister. 

• 

(Joseph?  Thomas'  (?),  John'). 

Gurdon*  Hollister  is  said  to  have  been  born  in  Connect- 
icut, and  to  have  removed  from  Colchester,  in  that  State, 
to  Lenox,  Mass.,  wheref  he  and  his  wife  were  admitted  to 
the  Church  in  1774.  He  was  also,  in  that  year,  one  of 
several  Hollisters  who  with  others  signed  a  covenant  in 
Lenox,  agreeing  not  to  buy,  sell,  or  use  British  goods. 
His  daughter,  Mahala,  was  baptized  in  Lenox,  in  July, 
1774,  and  was  probably  his  youngest  child,  as  no  others 
arc  recorded  there. 

Nothing  certain  is  known  of  the  ancestry  of  Gurdon 
Hollister,  though  a  long  and  most  patient  search  has  been 
made  in  every  quarter  where  it  seemed  likely  that  infor- 
mation could  be  obtained.  In  this  search  the  author  has 
been  ably  assisted  by  Judge  John  C.  Hollister  of  New 
Haven,  one  of  Gurdon's  descendants.  Mrs.  Hannah  Nick- 
erson,  granddaughter  of  Gurdon  Hollister,  informed  Judge 
Hollister  a  short  time  before  her  death,  in  1885,  that  Gur- 
don's  father  was  Joseph  Hollister,  and  Mr.  Hollister  is 
strongly  of  the  opinion  that  this  Joseph  was  either  Joseph? 
(Thomasf  John')  or  his  son.  This  Joseph^  was  born  in 
1685,  and  Jesse,  eldest  son  of  Gurdon,  was  born  in  1756, 
making  a  period  of  71  years  between  them.  If  Gurdon 
was  born,  say  about  1730,  he  might  have  been  a  son  of 
Joseph?  who  would  then  be  45  years  of  age.  As  stated  in 
another  place,  the  records  of  the  descendants  of  Thomas' 
(John')  are  very  meagre,  and  appear  to  have  been  lost.

The  graveyard  in  Glastonbury  contains  the  gravestones 
of  2  children  of  Zephaniah  Hollister,  who  died  in  infancy. 
From  these  sources  is  made  up  all  that  a  patient  research 
reveals  of  the  family  of  Zephaniah  Hollister.  Nothing 
positive  is  known  of  his  ancestry,  and  he  left  no  sons  to 
perpetuate  his  name.  The  probability  is  strong  that  he 
was  a  son  of  Joseph^  Hollister,  (Thomas?  John').     All  the

Other  grandsons  of  Lieut.  John*  old  enough  to  have  had  a 
son  in  1715,  either  died  unmarried  or  their  records  are  so 
well  known  as  to  preclude  the  possibility  of  any  of  them 
having  been  the  father  of  Zephaniah.  As  stated  in  another

The  following  interesting  account  of  Zephaniah  Hollis-

ter  Smith,  and  his  remarkable  family,  is  from  an  obituary 
published  in  the  Hartford  Times  of  March  1 1,  1886: 

Obituary. 

Mrs.  Julia  E.  (Smith)  Parker  died  at  her  house  in  Park- 
ville  at  8:30  o'clock  on  Saturday  evening.  March  6,  at  the 
age  of  93  years — almost  94.  On  the  7th  of  last  Novem- 
ber, without  any  apparent  cause,  she  fell  upon  the  floor 
and  broke  her  hip,  and  for  many  weeks  was  a  great  suf- 
ferer; but  for  the  past  few  weeks  she  had  but  little  pain, 
and  passed  away  at  last  as  peacefully  as  though  dropping 
into  a  dreamless  sleep.  Her  old  neighbor  and  long- tried 
friend,  Mrs.  Kellogg  of  Glastonbury,  was  with  her,  and  the 
only  one  who  to  her  was  linked  with  the  past. 

Julia  Evelina  Smith  was  the  last  of  her  race,  and  the 
last  of  a  remarkable  family.  She  was  born  May  27,  1792, 
in  Eastbury,  that  part  of  Glastonbury  now  called  Bucking- 
ham. Her  mother  named  her  Julietta  Abelinda,  but  her 
father  afterward  improved  the  name  by  changing  it  to 
Julia  Evelina,  from  Miss  Burney's  three-volume  novel,  so 
popular  in  those  days.  She  was  the  fourth  child  of  a  fam- 
ily of  5  daughters,  Abby  Smith  being  the  youngest.  Julia 
studied  Hebrew,  and  translated  the  Bible  when  she  was 
over  50;  she  resisted  taxation  without  representation,  and 
made  herself  famous  at  the  age  of  80  or  over;  she  pub- 
lished her  bible  at  the  age  of  84,  and  married  at  87.  These 
are  the  prominent  points  in  her  life.  The  5  daughters  all 
had  marked  and  original  traits  of  character,  which  they  evi- 
dently took  from  the  maternal  side.  Her  mother,  Hannah 
Hadassah  Hickok,  married  Zephaniah  HoUister  Smith  in 
May,  1786,  in  South  Britain  (then  called  Woodbury),  Conn. 
David  Hickok,  a  graduate  of  Yale,  was  a  great  lover  of 
books,  and  he  gave  his  only  child,  Hannah,  a  liberal  edu- 
cation— liberal  for  those  days.  Her  taste  also  ran  to  books. 
She  was  a  good  linguist,  a  fine  mathematician,  and  a  great 
lover  of  astronomy.  Some  years  after  her  marriage  she 
made  an  almanac  for  her  own  use.  Her  familiarity  with 
the  stars  was  such  that  she  could  always  on  clear  nights 
tell  the  hour  by  their  position,  no  matter  at  what  time  she 
awoke.  She  also  had  quite  a  poetic  taste,  writing  verses 
and  poems  on  various  occasions.  These,  her  daughters 
Abby  and  Julia  collected  and  had  them  published  in  a 
volume  8  or  10  years  ago.  Zephaniah  Smith,  their  father, 
was  also  an  original  character. 


MISCELLANEOUS.  y^^ 

In  1873,  the  Smith  sisters  b(^an  their  resistance  to  tax- 
ation without  representation.  They  were  aroused  by  find- 
ing that  the  Glastonbury  authorities  had  increased  their 
taxes  and  those  of  some  other  women,  while  those  of  the 
men  had  not  been  increased.  Abby  Smith  made  her  first 
speech  before  the  town  meeting  of  Glastonbury,  Novem- 
ber 5,  1873.  This  speech  was  published  in  the  Hartford 
Courant,  and  led  to  articles  and  comments  throughout  the 
press  of  the  country;  the  ** Smith  sisters"  became  known 
to  the  world,  and  the  Glastonbury  mails  were  freighted 
with  letters  to  them.  They  refused  to  pay  taxes,  so 
their  cows  were  sold  at  auction  and  bought  back  again. 
This  was  repeated  up  to  the  spring  preceding  Abby's 
death,  which  occurred  in  July,  1878.  The  following  spring, 
Julia  was  married  to  Mr.  Parker  of  Fitzwilliam,  N.H.,  and 
after  her  marriage,  the  bills  were  presented  to  him,  and  he 
paid  them,  though  Julia  told  him  they  could  not  be  paid 
with  her  money.  Many  months  after,  she  handed  him  a 
package,  saying  she  was  going  to  make  him  a  present. 
The  package,  when  opened,  was  found  to  contain  the 
exact  amount  of  money  of  the  tax-bills. 

Julia  E.  Smith  married  Mr.  A.  A.  Parker  on  the  9th  of 
April,  1879.  Her  marriage  at  the  age  of  ^T, — or  Zy  lack- 
ing a  few  weeks, — was,  of  course,  the  occasion  of  some  sur- 
prise to  her  friends  and  acquaintances.  Soon  after  Abby 
died  she  received  letters  of  sympathy  from  all  over  the 
country,  and  among  them  was  one  from  Mr.  Parker  of  Fitz- 
william, N.H.  She  made  it  a  point  to  either  an.swer  all 
these  letters  or  send  to  the  writers  one  of  her  pamphlets 
entitled,  "Abby  Smith  and  her  cows.*'  She  sent  one  of 
these  to  Mr.  Parker.  On  the  cover  was  a  notice  of  Julia 
Smith's  Bible.  He  immediately  wrote  back,  asking  her 
some  questions  in  regard  to  it.  This  led  to  a  correspond- 
ence, and  soon  Mr.  Parker  proposed  to  visit  her,  saying 
they  could  talk  about  the  Bible  better  than  they  could 
write  about  it.  She  invited  him  to  come,  and  this  led  to 
their  acquaintance. 

The  following  are  the  dates  and  names  which  the  news- 
papers a  few  years  ago  made  such  blundering  work  trying 
to  spell : 

Zephaniah   11.  Smith,  born  Aug.  19,  1758;  died  Feb.  i, 
1836. 

Hannah  Hickok,  born  Aug.  7,  1767;  died  Dec.  zj,  1850. 


734  THE   HOLLISTER   FAMILY. 

Daughters  of  the  foregoing : 

5396.  Hancy  Zephina,  born  March  16,  1787;  died  June 

30»  1871. 

5397.  Cyrinthia   Sacretia,  born    May    18,    1788;    died 

Aug.  19,  1864. 

5398.  Laurilla  Aleroyla,  born  Nov.  26,  1789;  died  Mch. 

19.  1857. 

5399.  Juh'a  Evelina,  born  May  27,  1792;  died  Mch.  6, 

1886. 

5400.  Abby  Hadassah,  born  June  i,  1797;  died  July 

23,  1878. 

The  religious  belief  of  this  family — for  they  all  shared  in 
it — was  as  original  as  their  strongly  marked  character,  and 
was  calcinated  to  be  especially  noticeable  in  an  orthordox 
New -England  village.  They  seldom  or  never  attended 
church;  'and  when  any  member  of  the  family  died,  no 
clergyman  was  allowed  to  officiate  at  the  funeral.  Abby 
Smith  had  one  of  the  most  devoutly  religious  natures  I 
have  ever  met,  yet  she  never  went  to  church,  and  she 
said  she  wanted  no  minister  to  explain  her  Bible  to 
her.  These  matters,  she  claimed,  lay  between  herself 
alone  and  her  God,  and  she  would  never  allow  any  "hire- 
ling" priest  or  minister,  as  she  put  it,  to  step  between. 
Their  funerals  have  been  conducted  with  the  most  Quaker- 
like simplicity.  In  the  back  of  Julia's  Bible — her  own 
translation  and  the  one  she  read  every  day,  and  which  is 
covered  with  her  marginal  notes  in  pencil — is  this  note  in 
her  own  handwriting: 

"Glastonbury,  January  i,  1883. 

"Julia  E.  Smith  to  be  buried  between  L.  A.  Smith  and 
A.  H.  Smith;  her  name  the  same  as  before  marriage,  and 
birth  and  death  inscribed  on  the  gravestone  in  the  same 
manner  as  her  sisters'."

scendants of  his  brothers  and  sisters. 

William  Hollistcr  was  born  about  1770,  and  died  in  the 
93d  year  of  his  age;  was  bom  and  brought  up  in  New- 
York  State,  perhaps  in  Livingston  County,  where  he  cer- 
tainly lived  at  one  time,  and  from  there  removed  to  Lodi, 
now  Gowanda,  Cattaraugus  Co.,  N.Y.  His  son,  Washing- 
ton, says  of  him:  "My  father  lived  to  be  93  years  old,  and 
was  a  remarkable  man  for  strength  and  endurance.  He 
was  a  man  of  regular  habits  and  of  unceasing  toil.  When 
his  hair  became  white,  it  seemed  to  be  made  so  by  the 
blooms  of  Paradise;  and  when  his  voice  trembled,  it  was 
only  changing  for  higher  melodies;  and  when  his  hand 
trembled,  it  was  only  being  unclasped  from  the  toils  of 
earth  to  lay  hold  on  eternal  interests;  and  when  he 
dropped  his  staff,  it  was  the  signal  for  the  opening  of  the 
golden  gate."

Thomasf  (Thomas?  John?  John*),  is  known  to  have  been  a 
soldier  in  the  Revolution,  and  to  have  died  in  the  war,  but 
the  author  has  been  informed  by  a  relative  who  ought  to 
know,  that  he  died  unmarried..  The  East -Glastonbury 
church  record  says:  "Died,  March  22,  1777,  Ensign  Jona- 
than Hollister,  of  small,  pox."  Administration  on  his 
estate  was  granted  to  his  brothers,  Thomas,  Jr.,  and  Nehe-

"The  estate  of  Jonathan  Hollister,  Jr.,  insolvent."  Prob-

He  d.  at  Springfield,  Oct.  16,  1875.  The  fol- 
lowing is  from  his  obituary,  published  in  the 
Springfield  Republican  : 

He  came  to  this  city  in  1854,  from  Dalton, 
Mass.,  where  he  had  been  in  the  mercantile 
business,  and  was  employed  until  1863,  as  the 
commercial  agent  of  the  Greenleaf  and  Tay- 
lor Manufacturing  Co.  In  the  latter  year,  he 
formed,  with  O.  M.  Sanford  and  J.  E.  Taylor, 
the  firm  of  Hollister  &  Co.,  paper  dealers,  in 
Commercial  Row.  He  subsequently  formed 
the  Bay- State  Paper  Co.,  whose  leading  spirit 
and  chief  manager  he  has  been  from  the  first. 
For  many  years  he  has  been  a  prominent 
member  of  Trinity  Church,  and  until  recently, 
a  member  of  the  board  of  trustees,  resigning 
his  official  position  greatly  against  the  desire 
of  the  other  members.  He  was  a  quiet  and 
sorpewhat  reticent  man,  never  evincing  a  desire 
for  notoriety  either  in  business  or  politics,  and 
his  many  acts  of  benevolence  were  so  unos- 
tentatiously performed  as  to  be  known  only 
to  those  who  were  benefited  by  them.  But 
the  grand  characteristic  of  the  man  was  his

spotless  integrity.  By  those  who  knew  him 
best,  he  was  most  warmly  esteemed  and  his 
death  is  a  severe  blow  to  his  family,  the  church, 
and  the  business  community.

The  following  inscription  is  from  the  graveyard  in  Mid- 
dletown,  Conn.: 

"Here  lieth  the  body  of  Jacob  Hollister,  late  of  ye  City 
of  Bristol,  in  Great  Britain,  mac'ht  dec'd  who  departed  this 

life  ye  31st  day  of  Oct Anno   1722,  aetatis  suai  49 

years." 

It  has  been  supposed  by  some  that  this  Jacob  Hollister 
was  one  of  the  descendants  of  Lieut.  John  Hollister,  but 
the  above  account  clearly  shows  that  he  was  not  of  the 
American  branch  of  the  Hollister  family.  He  may,  how- 
ever, have  been  a  relative  of  this  branch.
