Google
This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on Hbrary shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world's books discoverable online.
It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.
Marks, notations and other maiginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the
publisher to a library and finally to you.

because we believe a book is in the public domain for users in the United States, that the work is also in the public domain for users in other
countries. Whether a book is still in copyright varies from country to country, and we can't offer guidance on whether any specific use of
any specific book is allowed. Please do not assume that a book's appearance in Google Book Search means it can be used in any manner

HENRY ERNEST WOODS, A.M.
By HxNBT WiNCHBOTEB CoNNiNaHAM, A. B., of Milton, Mass.
Heeibt Ebnbst Woods, so long an active member of this Society
and for so many years a worker in the field of New England history
and eeoealc^^, died suddenly of heart trouble at the Hotel Weldon
at Greenfidd, Mass., 11 October 1919, while on the performance of
Ub duties as State Conmiissioner of Public Records.
Hie son of Henry Thayer and Ellen (Thayer) Woods, he was bom
in Boston, at the home of his grandfather, EUjah Thayer, 181 Salem
Street, 5 June 1857,* and was descended through both his father
and mottier from a long line of New England ancestors. His father,
a wbokgale dry-goods merchant of Boston, had come from the
town of Groton, Mass., where he was bom in 1830, and descended
from the wellrknown Woods family of that town through Hemy*
(18Q2-1841) and his wife Hannah Maria Thayer of HolUs, N. H..
CoL Samson' (1760-1826), a Revolutionaiy soldier of Pepperell
and Groton, and his wife Alice Tarbell, Brig. Gen. Henry^ (1733-
1804) of Groton and Pepperell, an officer in the French and Indian
Wan, the Revolution, and during Shays's Rebellion, and a general
m the militia, and his wife Deborah Parker, Isaac' (1700-1775) of
Groton and his wife Abigail Stevens, Nathaniel' (1668-1738) of
Groton and his first wife Eleanor , and Samuel,^ the earliest
ancestor in America, who was bom about 1636 and moved with his
wife Alice Rushton to Groton in 1662, where he was an original
proprietor. Mr. Woods's mother was of the well-known Thayer
uunily, descending from the emigrant Thomas Thayer or Tayer,
who was at Braintree, Mass., before 1639.
Hany Woods, as he was familiarly known to all his friends, grew
op in Boston, and was a student at Chauncy Hall School from 1865
to 1875, going to the School when it was still located in Chauncy
Street, and fitting for Harvard, where he would probably have been
a member of the Class of 1881 ; but at the time he was not in robust
health, and trouble with his eyes obliged him to give up all idea of
ping to college. For a brief time he took a position in a wholesale
boot and shoe house, starting at the bottom and expecting to make

business his life work; but in a few months his health obliged him to
stot) work, and he crossed the Atlantic and spent a long time journey-
ing through England, Scotland, and other parts of Europe. On his
return home he began again in the same business in January 1877,
and remained in it for several years.
Previous to his European trip he had, in the winter of 1871-2,
made a voyage to Cuba, and from there across the Gulf to New
Orleans, thence to Florida, and up the Atlantic coast. In fact, as
he wrote in 1880, he had for the previous ten years scarcely for a
year missed a journey in some direction, even if it was only a vaca-
tion trip, and for several years at this period he passed a part of each
summer at Kennebimkport, Me., and took an active part in the
sunmier life there, serving for a long time as honorary secretary of
the little casino.
These trips during his early life, most of them taken for the benefit
of his health, interfered with the continuous progress of his school
life. But he had many inborn talents and a natural inclination
towards an artistic and literary life, and he gradually turned his
attention to this work, at first as an amateur; then, as his interest
and his ability developed, he became, perhaps before he fully reaUzed
it, for he was ever modest as to his accomplishments, so well equipped
that there were few in his lines so well fitted to pursue the work as
a profession.
To those who knew him only in his late years, when he was busy
with New En^and records, it may be a surprise to know how clever
he was with his pencdl, and that for several years he was a more or
less regular contributor to Life; and this artistic touch continued in
his neat and characteristic lumdwriting and in the clear and attrac-
tive way in which he made a genealogical chart, and, quite likely,
it iofluenced him in his study of herald^.
He joined this Society 5 May 1880, tiien in his twenty-third year,
becoming a life member in 1902; and he soon b^an to take an active
interest in its work, contributing to the Register in 1883 an article
on the English ancestry of the Thayers, his mother's family, at
Thombury in Gloucestershire, and a few years later a review of an
"Rnglifth genealogical book.*
In 1888 he became a member of the C!ommittee on Heraldiy, and
continued as such till 1910, serving many years as its chaunnan;
and, in the annual report which he made in December 1898 and
which was adopted by the Society at the following annual meeting,
he took a strong position on the proper and improper use of coat
armor by Americans, a position that received much conunendation
at home and abroad. I^m a long study he became well-versed in
heraldry, probably as much so as anyone in the conmiunity, and
was often consulted and gave freely of his advice to those in search
of the true interpretation of a coat of arms. He had little patience
with professionals who were too ready to make up arms for anyone,

or with those who insisted on using spurious anns. It did Aot
seem to him honest, and anything dishonest was repugnant to
his nature. In the Register for April 1895 he made a communica-
tian on the arms of Anne Radcliffe, Lady Moulson, and was con-
sulted by the authorities of Radcliffe College about these arms and
as to a proper seal for the College.
In addition to his work for the Society on heraldry, he soon became
a member of the Committee on the Library, and in the early nineties,
when the writer first began to take an interest in the Society, wh^re
he made Mr. Woods's acquaintance, he was serving as secretary of
that Committee and was active and alert in adding valuable books
to the library. His knowledge of English parish registers was
ertenaive, and it was largely through his advice that the Society
began the systematic collection of this important addition to its
lifaffaiy.
For fifteen or twenty 3rears he had been a constant visitor at the
liteaiy and a delver in the records of New England families, and
had nuuie brief genealogies for himself and given help to all his
friends who were searchmg in these fields unusual to them, so that
in the winter of 1901, when the late John Ward Dean became ill and
unable to continue his work as Editor of the Registeb, Mr. Woods
was asked to edit the April, July, and October numb^; and after
that he was chosen Editor and continued till 1907, when he was
eaDed to other duties.
President Baxter in his address at the annual meeting of the
Society in 1902, in speaking of the great loss the Society had su£Fered
in the death of Mr. Dean, said ibkt they were fortunate in having
tried men in their service, and, continumg, said: ''One of these, I
think, you will not object to have me particularly mention, and that
is the present Editor of the Register, Mr. Woods. H^ services
have been so valuable that I cannot refrain from congratulating you
far having secured them." And in his annual address the following
year Bfr. Baxter again called attention to Mr. Woods's work, 8a3dng:
^ think you will all agree with me that imder the able editorship
of Mr. Woods it [the Register] has grown better than ever." The
late CSal^ B. Tlllinghast, for many years our Vice-President and
CShaiiman of the Committee on Publications, had been thrown with
maaj pubUc men and was a keen judge of human nature, and at first
be baa some little doubt whether Mr. Woods would care to take
op regular professional duties; but he soon found that he was not
only accurate and skilful but conscientious and regular in the dis-
charge at his duties, and the two men became the warmest of personal
fiieods, often making Uttle summer trips together.
In 1901 an active movement was made, mainly through the
initiative of Edmund D. Barbour, in which he was strongly backed
by Mr. Greenlaw and Mr. Woods, to have the State assist in the
preservation of the vital records of the cities and towns of Massa-
chusetts, by encouraging the printing each year of a fixed amount of
socfa records in book form. This movement resulted in the Vital
Records Act of June 1902, and Mr. Woods at once began the work
tor this Sodety, publishing during the first year the records of six
6 Henry Ernest Woods [Jan.
small towns. In all he edited thirty-two volumes of these Vital
Records.
In 1907 Robert T. Swan, the first Conmiissioner of Public Records
for Massachusetts, died, and Mr. Woods was appointed to succeed
him, receiving the appointment from his old schoolmate and lifelong
friend, Curtis Guild, who was then Governor. This new position
necessitated the withdrawal of Mr. Woods from active work for ^taa
Society, though he still served on conmiittees and for three shears
(1908-1910) as a member of the Council,* and again the President
voiced in his annual address what must have been the feeling of aU,
saying: ''The retirement of Mr. Woods from the editorship of publi-
cations requires more than a passing notice. Since his connection
with that department, Mr. Woods has not only rendered the most
devoted service to the interests of the Society, but has sho?m himsdf
to be possessed of editorial ability of a iugh character. In his
association with the members of this Society and its officers, his
unvarying courtesy and exuberant good will have endeared him to
us iJl, and his vacant chair will remind us of a personal loss.''
Mr. Woods's work as Conmiissioner took him to all parts of the
State for a personal examination of the condition and methods of
preservation of the town records, and it was while on one of these
trips that he died. When he made these trips in summer his friends
Grenville H. Norcross and Francis Apthorp Foster and some-
times others often went with him; and they dc^ght in telling of the
tact with which he handled his business, for the average town clerk
is not apt to look with pleasure upon the advent of a State official
who may criticize his work or oblige him to do it in some new way;
but most of them melted imder the hearty and smiling good nature
with which Mr. Woods approached them, and it was sddom that he
had to invoke his legal powers to accomplish his ends, though he did
not hesitate to do this when necessary. He did a good work in
encouraging the care and preservation of historic records, for his
training had taught him their value, and he well knew how easily
they might become lost or damaged in careless hands.
His achievements were recognized by election to membership in
the American Antiquarian Society in 1907 and in the Massachusetts
Historical Society in 1908, and he was one of the founders of The
Colonial Society of Massachusetts in 1892. He was made an honor-
ary member of the Harvard Chapter of Phi Beta Kappa in 1901 and
of many historical organizations at various times, and Bowdoin
College gave him the honorary degree of Master of Arts in 1903.
He was never married, and for many years made his home with
his mother, to whom he was devoted through her years of acute
suffering from rheumatic gout, and he did much also for the care of
an invalid brother; but during recent years he had rooms on New-
bury Street in Boston and really made his home at the near-by St.
Botolph Club, where he enjoyed the companionship of friends with
kindred tastes in art and literature.
*Mr. Woods was one of the donors to the fund raised for the erection of the new Iniilding of
the Society at 9 Ashburton Place. Boston, and he was a member of the Special Ezeoative,
Finance, and Building Committee in 1011 and 1012. He was also a member of the Com-
mittee on Consolidated Index during the years 1010, 1011, and 1012.

He had a large acquaintance, and knew much about the origin
and careers of most Boston people, even though he was not personally
acquainted with than. And be had a few warm, personal friends,
perhaps quite as many as the average man. These intimates always
r^nained his intimates, for they knew his sterling worth and lus
steadfast friendship, and they luul penetrated through an outside
manner perhaps due to shyness and knew what a loyal friend and
genial companion he could be. It was always a pleasure to meet
him, even for a passing word upon the street, and see his face light up
*with a cheery smile. Those who wete but mere acquaintances have
never really known Harry Woods.
He has accomplished much in his career, although he had his full
share of cares and sorrows and must have had many lonely moments,
but he has left a happy memory with his friends.

THE ERSEINE FAMILY OF BRISTOIs MK
By FkAXX Eamsr Woodwabd of Wdleiky HiDi^
Thb Ersldne families are nmneioas and wide-spmd in Scotland.
According to Low^s '1>ictioiiary of the Flamity Names of the United
Kngdom" the ancient and noble Scottidi &mily bearing tUsi aar-
name doived it from the barony of Erskine on the CSyde, in Ben-
frewdiire, and the name was first assumed as a surname by Henry
<tf Erskine about the year 1220. The first of the name to attain
historical importance was Robot Eedine, who became Earl of Mar
in 1435, on the death of Alexander, the fonner Earl of Mar, without
issue. This Robot was a grandson of TsaheBa> Countess of Mar.
From that date until comparativety recent times this tamilj has
been prominent in the mintary, political, and idigioaB annak of
ScotlaixL AlftTander Fiaguaon^ bjogyapbg of Henry Etekine, Lord
Adrocate of Scotland, states that *Hhere is scared a r iu Bs itu de

settled in MaasachuBetts prior to 1760, but only two of them had
mnneroaB descendants. Christopher Erskine and his brother Robert
came to Massachusetts in 1719, in the earliest immigration from
Ireland, and settled in that part of the old town of Bridgewater
which is now the town of East Bridgewater. Robert's line became
extinct after the second generation, but there are many descendants
of Christopher scattered over New England, New York, and the
West. Alexander Erskine came to Boston in 1746, and a few years
kter settled at Bristol in Maine, then a part of Massachusetts, his
elder broUier Ninon joining him in Bristol a few years later. Of
Erskine's posterity only a single family bearing the surname
now be found,* but the descendants of Alexander are numerous
and form the subject of this article. There is some evidence to
su|>pari the theory that the Bridgewater and Bristol families were
it&ted, altiiough the two migrations were more than twenty-five
AcoOTding to the United States Census of 1790 there were several
Kskine families in central New York, but they cannot be traced
to New England ancestry. John Erskine, who was judge of the
United States District Court in Georgia from 1868 to 1883, was
bom in co. Tyrone, Ireland, in 1813, and came to America with his
parents about 1820.
1. Ai^EZANDEB^ Ebskinb, the first of this surname to settle in
Maine, was of Scotch descent, his ancestors having crossed over
from Scotland and settled in the north of Ireland after the expul-
of the Roman Catholic inhabitants. He was bom at London-
r, Iidand, about 1720,t and died at Bristol, Me., in 1784. Before
mafpaitiMig to New England he married Euzabbth Butters, and
it IB supposed that his two oldest children, Margaret and Sarah,
bcmi in Londonderry.
lander Erskine amved in Boston, Mass., in 1746, and a few
later went with Shem Drowne to Bristol, to aid in making a
d the claims of the Pemaquid Proprietors and to distribute
among the inhabitants. He decided to settle there, and
a tract of land of about 1000 acres. Through his influ-
his dder brother, Ninon Erskine, came, not long afterwards,
to BristoL As constable Alexander Erskine signed the warrant for
the first town meeting in Bristol, in 1766.
His land was situated on both sides of the Pemaquid River, the
which he built being located just west of Biscay Pond and
its outlet. In the inmiediate vicinity his six sons and three
dani^ters settled, on land which probably formed a part of his orig-
iosl grant, and the locality has ever since been known as the
''EMdne neighborhood." At one time he was evidently a mill-
wiiglit, utilising the water power at Pemaquid Falls. On 16 June
1776 he sold to Richard Jones three-fourths of a gristmill called
''Airidn's Mills.'' On 26 June 1776 he sold to Ebenezer Cox, a
aoD-in-Iaw, 400 acres. On 9 Sept. 1777 he sold to his son William,
its of Ninon Enkina will be given in the Addendum at the end of thie artiole.

Lydia (Woodbury). She married secondly, 29 June 1806,
as his second wife, Christopher firskine of Alna (then New
Milford), Me. He was a son of Christopher Erskine of
Abington, Mass., and had settled in Alna (then a part of
PowojsJborough) in 1766. He was doubtless distantly related
to the Bristol family. For a while after marriage he and his
second wife remained in Bristol, but later they went to White-
field, Me., and lived with his son Christopher. Ruth (Cox)
(Erddne) Erskine died there 9 Dec. 1825, and was buried

William Erskine bought of his father, 9 Sept. 1777, 400
acres of land on the west side of the Pemaquid River, and

It has been impossible to obtain a full record of John
Eliskine's family. In the U. S. Census of 1790 he is credited
with one son and one dau^ter. In the Direct Tax of 1798
his name does not appear. He owned at one time 300 acres
of land on the east side of the Pemaquid River, but in 1795
sold it to his brother Robert. On 26 S<^t. 1800 he bought
300 acres of land in the plantation of New Waterford, Me.

Robert Erskine was both a soldier and a sailor in the
Revolutionary War, and was in active service, for most of
the time on the sea, from 1776 until the close of the War.

26 Mar. 1776 and again on 10 Sept. 1777; also as a lieutenant
on the privateer Lincoln Galley, commanded by Capt. John
Curtis, on 19 Mar. 1781, serving 4 months and 4 days, but
tradition in his family says that he spent much of his time in
sea service. After the War, according to docimients published
by the Maine Historical Society, he evidently did some pri-
vateering on his own accoimt. He became later a successful
shipmaster and a large owner of real estate.
In the Direct Tax of 1798 he is recorded as having a dwell-
ing house valued at $120 and 300 acres of land, althou^ not
then married. The dwelling house was probably the home-
stead which he held in accordance with an agreement among
the heirs of his father that he should care for and maintain
his mother so long as she lived. Margaret, his widow, lived
for a few years in Boston after Robert's death.

1920] The Mother of Rev. John Whedwright 51
THE MOTHER OF REV. JOHN WHEELWRIGHT
By Mis. Mabt Lovxbinq Holman of Watertown, Maes.
In the Wheelwright pedigree given in the valuable article entitled
The Lincolnshire Origin of Some Exeter Settlers/' published in
the Registeb for January, 1914 (vol. 68, pages 64-80), the imter
of the article, Victor Channing Sanborn, Esq., states that Robert
Wheelwright, who was the father of Rev. John Wheelimght of
New England and was buried at Saleby, co. Lincoln, England,
23 Feb. 1612/13, married first Alice , who was buried at
Cmnberworth, co. Lincoln, in 1692; secondly Catherine , who
was buried at Saleby 8 July 1605; and tUrdly, at Saleby, 17 Nov.
1606, Catherine Money, widow of John. Mr. Sanborn assigns to
Bobert Wheelwright a daughter and a son by his first wife, Alice
, and three daughters by his second wife, Catherine .
The daughter by the first wife is said to have married Thomas
Eingerby of Wainfleet, co. Lincoln, and to have died before 13
Oct. 1611, as she is not mentioned in her father's wiU of that date.
The son was the Rev. John Wheelwright, who, Mr. Sanborn states,
was bom about 1592, "since he was a minor in 1611, when his father
made his will, but was of age 7 Mar. 1612/13, when the will was
proved." It is the purpose of the present article to prove that in
an probability Catherine , who appears in Mr. Sanborn's
article as the second wife of Robert Wheelwright, was a daughter
of Thomas Mawer, that she had been the wife of Richard Eongerby
befive her marriage with Robert Wheelwright, and that she was
the mother of Rev. John Wheelwright.
An examination of the records which precede the pedigree given
by Bdr. Sanborn shows that, although an AUce Wheelwright was
buried at Cumberworth in 1592, there is no evidence that she was
the wife of Robert Wheelimght. It is just as Ukely that she was
Robert's sister or mother or even a more distant connection. The
existenoe of a daughter who married Thomas Kingerby is inferred
from the passage in Robert Wheelwright's will in which he appoints
as one of the two supervisors ''Thomas Kingerbye of Wamflett
my Sonne in lawe," but the evidence now to be presented msJces
it very probable that Thomas Kingerbye was not the husband of
Bobert Wheelwright's daughter but was his stepson, the son of
his wife Catherine by a former husband named Kingerby.*
In ''Lincolnshire Pedigrees," vol. 2, page 567 {Publications of the
Harieian Society, vol. 51), there is printed a pedigree of Kingerby
of Wainfleet, according to which William [sic, ? Richard] Kingerby
of Wainfleet, son of William Kingerby of co. Lincoln, married

Katberine, daa^ter of Thomas Mawer of WiUcHighliy, and had by
her two floos, vu., Robert Eingierby of Wainfleet, who died without
jflBue, and Thonias Kmgerby of Croft, 1634, who married FaitfL
dandier of William ClarkscMi of WainfleeL Directly north of
Sal^T is the parufa of Stnibby , and in the paririi registerB of StnAbj
with Woodtfaorpe aze reovded the marriaees of Bidiaid Kingsbie
and Katherine Mawer, 2 Apr. 1581, and Tliomas Kyn ggabye and
Faith Cawthcvn, 12 Blar. 1610 [1610 11].^ According to the Index
of WiDs in the Consistory Court of linoofai the will of Ridiaid
Kingerby of Wainfleet was proved in 1591 and the will of Robert
Eingierby of Wainfleet wa s pro ved in 1613.
Tne paiidi re^sters of WiUou^by contain the leeoids of four
marriages to which a Thomas Maws' was a party, the llioinas
Mawer mentioned last being possiUy a scm of the first-mentioaed
Thomas. These marriages are as foDowsit
1541 ThcMDas Mawer and Joan Dawson 25 Angosi.
1557 Thomas Mawer and Joan Tieming 17 Augost.
1560 Thooias Mawer and Margaret l&son 3 AngOBi.
1571 Thooias Mawer and Agnes Goodwin 13 November.
The win of a Thomas Blawer of WiUoughby, pobab^y the father
of the Katherine who married Richard Kingerby on 2 Apr. 1581,
was proved in the Consistory Court of LinocSn in 1597. Katherine
was bom probably about 1560, and may have been the dan^t^r of
Joan (Leming) Mawer or of Margaret (Mason) Mawv. As die
did not give etUier ot these names (Joan or Margaret) to her dau^ten
by her second husband (if it be assumed that she did beocxne die
infe of R<d)ert Whedwri^t), the name of htf mother caimot be
determined without an examination of the unpublished portions of
the registers of lif^ou^bby.
It seems Hkdyy therefore^ from the foregoing evidence, that, whether
or not the Alice Wheelwright who was buned at Cumborvrorth in
1502 was the wife of Robert Wheelwri^t, the Cathmne who
is given in Mr. Sanborn's pedigree as the seccmd wife of Robert was
the dau^ter of Thomas Mawer of Willou^by and married first,
2 Apr. 1581, Richard Kingerby of Wainfleet, who died about 1591,
by whom she had two sons, Robert, who died without issue, and
lliomas, who married Faith Clarkson or Cawthom — periiaps Faith
(Clarkson) Cawthom, this Thomas Kingerby being the ''soime in
lawe," i.e., stepson, mentioned in Robert Wheelwright's will. Since
he was made supervisor of the will and guardian ot one of Robert
Wheelwright's daughters, he was of age at that time and was older
than any of the chUdren of Robert.
If Catherine (Mawer) Kingerby married secondly Robert Wheel-
wright, she was the mother of the three daughters of Robert Wheel-
wright, Elizabeth, Katherine, and Ellen or Elynor, who appear in
the records given in Mr. Sanborn's article. She was also, it is prob-
able, the mother of Rev. John Wheelwright, for he seems to have
been bom about 1594, some two years later than the date assigned
by Mr. Sanbom for his birth. This is inferred from the statement
•Lincolnahire Pwiah Resistors. Mamaces, toL 7. pi>. 129. 131.
t/6.. vol. 9, pp. 118, 121. 122.
1920] Connecticut Cemetery InecrvptionB 53
in the inquisition post mortem of Robert Wheelwright, cousin of
Bev. John Wheelwright, taken 29 August 1622, that John Wheel-
wright, derk, next heir to the deceased, was aged twenty-seven
ywiB and more. If he had been thirty years old, it would have been
fl>.fltftted in the inquisition. He was therefore under age not only
vbea his father appointed him executor of his will, 13 Oct. 1611,*
but also on 7 Mar. 1612/13, when the will was proved and admin-
■faatioD was granted to the executor. It is probable that a com-
plete copy of &e probate act would show that administration was
grw>*^ to the executor in the person of his guardian. The fact
thai Rev. John Wheelwright named his second daughter Katherine
and hki second son Thomas increases the probability that his
mother was Katherine, daughter of Thomas Mawer.
When Rev. John Wheelwright returned to Eagland in 1658, he
Sved at WiQou^by, and was the plaintiff in a fioal concord made
in that year in regard to land and biuldings in that parish (ReoisteBi
voL 68, page 74). Some writers have stated that he went to WU-
kmghby because it was the home of Sir Henry Vane, his patron, but
ft seems more likely that he went there because it was the home of
ksB kindred. In his will he disposed of property at Croft, the home
rf Thomas Kingerby in 1634.
An examination of tiie Eingerby and Mawer wills proved in the
GoDOfltoiy CJourt of Lincoln and of Lincolnshire parish registers
would probably throw .more light on the family connections of
Bar. John Wheelwright.

•
Hitherto nothing conclusive has been published about the Eng-
lish antecedents of Jeremiah Clarke of Rhode Island. The fact
that one of his sons was named Weston, and that this name was
borne by some of Jeremiah Clarke's grandsons and more remote
descendants, pointed to a connection with a Weston family. There
was a tradition, also, that his wife Frances, who was known to
have had three husbands, William Dungan, Jeremiah Clarke^ and
Rev. William Vaughan, had been marri^ frst to a Lord Weston.
Barbara Dungan, a daughter of Jeremiah Clarke's wife by her
former husband, married James Barker of Rhode Island, and their
descendant, James Barker, wrote: ''Frances, the wife of William
Vaugn, di^ September, 1677, in the 67th year of her age. fflie
was the daughter of Lewis Latham. She was some time the wife
of Lord Weston, then wife to William Dimgan, by whom she had
one son and three daughters. . . . After William Dungan died.
she married Mr. Jeremiah Clarke and came over to New l«^gl<^nH
with her foiu- children above mentioned. She had by her husband
Clarke five sons. After he died she married to a Mr. Vaugn.''t
No record, however, of a marriage between a Lord Weston and
Frances liitham could be found, and Morrison, in his ''Clarke
Families of Rhode Island," suggested that Jeremiah Clarke mig^t
have been connected with the Clarkes of Willoughby, co. Warwick,
who at one time owned the manor of Weston, and that one of
Frances Latham's husbands, perhaps Jeremiah Clarke himself,
might have been a lord of the manor of Weston.
It was in the will of James Clarke of Elast Farleigh, co. Kent,
Gent., dated 13 July 1614 {vide supra, page 70), an abstract of whidti

was published in the Registeb in Jan. 1896, and in the Clerk
pedigree in the Visitation of London, 1633, 1634, and 1635, vol. 1,
page 172 {Pvblicaiians of the Harleian Society, vol. 15), that the
ehies Iciading to the discovery of the parentage and ancestry of
Jeremiah Clarke were found. James Clarke in his will mentions a
Weston Clarke and the latter's ''brethren," a word which indicates
that Weston Clarke had more than one brother. The pedigree
of Clerk of Allgate Ward, printed in the Visitafion of London,
begins with James Clerke in co. Kent, who married Merie Saxby,
daughter of Baron Saxby, gives James Clerke's son, William Clerke
in CO. Kent, who married Mary Weston, daughter of Sir EQerom
Weston, and names also two sons of this William Clerke, viz.,
Weston Clerke of London, eldest son and heir, now (1633) dead,
w1k> married Dorcas, daughter of .... Norfolke,* and James
Ckake ci London, grocer, 1633, ^o married Sarah Harvey and
had a daughter, Mary Clerke, who was one year old in 1633. This
pedigree is signed by James Clerk (the grocer of London), and at
the top are the words: 'This descent not to be entred. refuseth to
pay fee nephew to the Lo. Treasurer." An editorial note states
thiit this pedigree has been erased in the original Visitation. It is
prabttUe that the refusal of James Clerk to pay the required fee
wae the reason for not entering the pedigree and for erasing it in
tiie original manuscript of the Visitation. It was easily ascertained
that the Lord Treasurer of fkigland in 1633 was Richard Weston,
of Portland, son of Sir Jerome Weston, and in the marriage
granted by the Bishop of London was found the licence
for the marriage of WiUiam Clerke, Gent., and Mary Weston,
of Sir Jerome Weston. It then remained to search the
registers of East Farleigh, co. Kent, and there were found
the baptisms of nine children of William Clerk, Gent.,
beginning with Weston, the eldest child, and ending with a post-
famnoas daughter, Mary. Among them was a son Jeram {sic),
who was the Jeremiah Clarke who emigrated to Rhode Island.
By 'means of a pedigree printed in the Visitation of Kent, 1619,
peoBS 2-3 (Publications of the Harleian Society, vol. 42), it is pos-
wSbie to trace the ancestry of James Clerke of East Farleigh, who
Merie (Mary) Saxby and was the grandfather of Jeremiah
of Rhode Island, back for five generations, to John Clerk
ot Forde in the parish of Wrotham, co. Kent, Esq.
Vrom the preceding records, from the pedigrees in the Visitations
of Kcoit and of London, and from other records and authorities
cited bdow, the following genealogy showing the English ancestry
of Jeraniah Clarke of Rhode Island has been compiled.
1. John Clebk, of Forde in the parish of Wrotham, co. Kent,
J., lived probably in the first half of the fifteenth century.
According to Hasted (History of Kent), who wrote about 1782,
Hall, formerly the seat of this family, lay about a mile and
a half eastward from Wrotham church, near Addington Common,

and derived its name from the ford which crossed the brook that
ran close by the Hall to Leyboume and thence to the Medway.
In Hasted's time the house was occupied by a farmer. It is stfll
standing, and contains a curious and beautiful carved staircase.*
Child:

2. John Clerke, of Forde, the testator of 1480, died between
10 Dec. 1480 and 10 Mar. 1480/1. He married about 1445
Alice Tatesham, living 10 Dec. 1480, daughter and coheir
of Tatesham of Tatesham, Esq. John Gierke was a
baron of the Exchequer from 10 Oct. 1468 until 1470, and
is mentioned as such in the Visitation of Kent, 1619.
Children:

3. John Clerk, of Forde, Esq., son and heir of John (2), married,
about 1470, Lucia Motle, daughter of Sir Walter Moyle,
Knight, and his wife Margaret.
Margaret Moyle, relict of Walter Moyle, Knight, in her
will dated 20 Jan. 1491 [? 1491/2] and proved at Canterbury
1 June 1493, directs tHat her body shall be buried in the
quire of the blessed Mary of Estewell, close to the sepulture
of the said Walter Moyle, bequeaths 40s. to the fabrick of
the steeple of Charyng, and mentions Richard and John
Moyle, her sons, and Lucia Gierke, her daughter. (Nicolas's
Testamenta Vetusta, vol. 2, p. 402.)

4. Jambs Clebk, of Forde, Esq., son and heir of John (3), died at
Wrotham 20 Sept. 1554. He married, about 1508, E^jzabeth

(Heckstall) and sister of Sir Edward Ferrers of Baddesley
Clinton, co. Warwick, and Peckham, co. Kent, Knight
(Visitation of Warwiclsshire, 1619, page 5).t The Visitation
of Kent, 1619, erroneously states that Elizabeth, wife of
James Clerk, was a daughter of Sir Edward Ferrers; but
Sir Edward Ferrers in his will, dated 10 July 1535 (P. C. C,
Hogen, 29), mentions his daughter Elizabeth as the wife of
Jolm Hampden and also leaves a legacy to his nephew George
Clerke.

Tbk Swett Collection op Bunker Hill Affidavits. — Mr. Artemas Ward
of 50 Union Square, New York City, wishes to locate the collection of afBdavits.
etc (nearly 200 items, including muster rolls, letters, certificates, etc.), gathered
iQ 1818 by Col. Samuel Swett when he was weparing his ''Historical and Topo-
graphical Sketch of Bunker Hill Battle." The history of this ooUection, down
to 1883, 18, briefly, as follows:
In 1818, on the publication of his "Sketch of Bunker Hill Battle," Colonel
Oweit deposited his "documents and proofs" with the Boston Athenseum, in
order that, in the words of the author's preface, "the pubhc may Judge for
tiMDMelves." These "documents and proofs" constitute the Swett Collection
mnA t by Mr. Ward. It is entirely separate from the collection of Bunker
BQT affidavits or depositions taken by WiUiam Sullivan and others in 1825 and
~ in the Proeeedinga of the Massackuaetta Historical Society , First Series,
% pp. 230-232. The two collections are clearly differentiated in Swett's
to the Sketch of Bunker Hill Battle," printed in the second edition of
book^ 1825 (cf. pp. 3, note, and 10), and also in Frothingham's "Siege of
jbl" first edition (p. 380, paragraphs 3 and 8) and later editions.
In 1825. in his "Notes to the l^etch of Bunker Hill Battle," Colonel Swett
id that ne copied statements from the Boston CerUinel because the originals
of the Swett Collection now sought) "had been lost from the Boston
They were, however, subsequently found, as is noted in manu-
on many copies of the "Notes."
In 1849 FVothingham made use of the Collection in the preparation of his
_ of Boston." (See first edition, 1849, p. 121, note, and also later editions.)
In 1883 the Collection was offered for sale for $200 in the catalogue pub-
1 in May of that year by the late C. L. Woodward, then of 78 Nassau Street,
Yoric Cit^; but Mr. Ward has not been able to find out when the Colleo-
was sokl from the Woodward stock or who bought it. An annotated set of
Woodward catalogues is in the possession of the American Antiquarian
Society, Worcester, Mass., and the manuscript notes in the catalogue for May
1883 name the bu3rers of a majority of the titles but, unfortunately, not the
bimr of the Swett Collection.
Mr. Ward has foimd no trace of the Collection after 1883. An^ information
abooi it or any due to its whereabouts will be gratefully appreciated by him.

and three dau^ters of Edmimd and Mercy Sheffield are recorded

E(hnimd,* was bom 24 February 1792, and married, 4 January 1816,
Eliza, daughter of William L. (a farmer of New Shoreham) and Mary
(Clark) Paine. In early life Mr. Sheffield was a Jeffersonian Demo-
crat, but in 1856 he associated himself with the newly-formed Repub-
lican Party. He was active in town affairs and in politics, and held
various offices of trust and honor, serving for several terms as
representative of his town in the General Assembly of Rhode
Island. He died in 1871 at South L3rme, Conn., which had been
his home for the few years immediately preceding his death.
William Paine* Sheffield, of Newport, son of George Ganliner'
and father of the subject of this memoir, was bom in tlie town of New
Shoreham (Block Island) 29 August 1819, and died at his home in
Newport 2 June 1907. He was educated at the Kingstown (R. I.)
Academy and by private tutors, and then entered upon the study
of law. While still a very young man he began his political career,
serving in 1841 as a delegate to the ''Landholders' Convention,"
which met for the purpose of preparing a new constitution for the
State, and being in 1842 a member of the General Assembly, where
he took a firm stand for law and order as opposed to ''Dorrism/' In
1843 and 1844, while he was pursuing his studies in law, he was
again a member of the General Assembly from New Shoreham. He
was a student at the Harvard Law School for a part of the 3rear
1844, and in the same year was admitted to the Rhode Island bar.
He began the practice of his profession at Tiverton, R. I., and repre-
sented that town in the lower branch of the Rhode Island Legislature
in 1849, 1851, and 1852. Removing soon afterwards to Newport, he
was elected to the General Assembly from that city, serving from
1857 to 1861, when he took his seat as a member of the House of
Representatives in the Thirtynseventh Congress (4 July 1861-
3 March 1863), to which he had been elected, as a Unionist, in 1860.
After the expiration of his congressional term he was again elected,
in 1863, to represent Newport in the General Assembly of Rhode
Island, and, with the exception of the years 1873 and 1874, was re-
elected annually to the Assembly, until 1884. Governor Bourn then
appointed him to the seat in the United States Senate made vacant
by the death of Henry Bowen Anthony, and he took his seat 2
December 1884 and served until 20 January 1885, when a senator
was elected by the Legislature. In the Rhode Island General
Assembly Mr. Sheffield was an able member of the standing commit-
tee of the House on the Judiciary, and in 1869 he served on a select
committee to revise the laws of the State. He was a ready speaker
and wrote many important monographs on legal and historical
subjects. He was prominent in the affairs of his home city, and
was a leader in finance, the oldest member of the corporation of the

Sedwood library, president and director of the People's Free
lihraiy, vice-president of the Newport Historical Society, a member
of the Society of the Cincinnati, and chairman of the committee
appointed to receive in Rhode Island the French delegates who
came to the United States to take part in the celebration of the one
hmidredth anniversary of the surrender of Comwallis at Yorktown.
From Brown University he received the honorary degrees of Master
of Arts and of Doctor of Laws. In 1847 he married Lilias White
Sanford, daughter of Samuel and Susan (Bodge) Sanford of Boston
and a descendant of John Sanford, who was one of the earliest
of Rhode Island and president of Portsmouth and Newport
May 1653 to May 1654.
W illiam Paine* Sheffield, the subject of this memoir, only son of
Wniiam Paine^ and Lilias White (Sanford), received his early educa-
tkm in private schools in his native city, entered PhiUips Andover
Academy, where he was graduated with honor in 1873, and then
was admitted to Brown University, where he won the degree of Bach-
dor of Arts in 1877, graduating with the highest honors. In 1880
his alma maier conferred on him the degree of Master of Arts. He
studied dvil and Boman law at the University of Paris, and, on his
vetam from abroad, continued his law studies at the Harvard Law
Sdiooly where he was enrolled as a student in 1878-9, and in the
office of his father. He was admitted to the Rhode Island bar 1
March 1880, and continued in the active practice of his profession
until a abort time before his death. Since the death of his father,
IB 1007, he had been the head of the law firm of Sheffield and Harvey,
of Newport.
In 1S80 Mr. Sheffield began a long career of faithful public service
hf acc^ting an appointment to the office of State commissioner on
tihe affairs of the Narragansett Indians. He held this position until
1884, and in the performance of its duties gained a thorough knowl-
edge of this Indian tribe. In 1885-1887, 1889-90, and 1894-1896
he was a member of the lower house of the General Assembly of
Bliode Island, where his work on the Judiciary Conmiittee was
o^iedaUy valuable. In 1885-1887 he was also aide-de-camp, with
the rank of colonel, on the staff of Gov. George Peabody Wetmore.
In ISra he was elected city solicitor of Newport, and held this office
for several years. In 1897 he served on the commission to revise
the constitution of the State. In 1906, when the new city charter
of Newport went into effect. Colonel Sheffield was elected a member
of the Representative Council from Ward Three of Newport, for the
one-year term, and was reelected to the Council in 1907 for the
tenn of three years. At the beginning of his first term in the Coimcil
he was diosen imanimously to be its presiding officer, and continued
to inneside over the Council during the two years in which he retained
his membership in that body. In 1908 he was elected, as a Repub-
hean, to represent the First Congressional District of Rhode Island
in the United States House of Representatives, in the Sixty-first
Congress, taking his seat in December 1909 and serving imtil the end
of this Congress in March 1911. But in the congressional elections
of 1910 he was defeated as a candidate for reelection, and he was
86 WtUiam Paine Sheffield [April
again defeated in 1912, when the defection of the Progressives insured
in so many districts the election of the Democratic candidates. The
confidence which his party reposed in him was shown, however, by
his selection in 1911 to be a member of the Republican National
Conmiittee, and he continued to hold this position imtil his death.
He was also a member of the committee to revise the constitution
of the State.
In educational matters Mr. Sheffield early showed a lively
interest. From 1885 to 1894 he was a member of the Newport
School Committee, being its chairman for part of this time. He
reaUzed the importance of manual training in the public schools,
and, with others, established and maintained at Newport a system
of private instruction for boys in wood-working. From 1886 on he
was a director of the Redwood Library and its secretary for several
years, and he was also president of the People's Library. He was an
authority on the early history of Newport, and an interesting speaker
on topics relating to it.
He was connected with many charitable and financial institutions,
was one of the alumni trustees of Brown University, a member of the
American Bar Association, a member and secretary of the Rhode
Island Society of the Cincinnati, in which he succeeded his father,
and a vestryman of Emmanuel Church.
Mr. Sheffield married, 16 October 1889, Mary Stevens Burdick,
who survives him, daughter of Jonathan Truman and Emily (Sher-
man) Burdick. All of their eight children survived their father, but
the eldest, Margaret Burdick, died in Boston, after a brief illness,
26 January 1920. The other children are William Paine, a graduate
of Brown University and a lawyer associated with his father's- law
firm, Mary Morse, Samuel Sanford, a graduate of Brown University
in the Claiss of 1919, now in business in New York, Lilias Sanford,
Katherine Ray, Frances, and Elizabeth. His two sons were lieu-
tenants in the United States Army in the World War, the elder son
serving for several months in France. Mr. Sheffield's sister, Mrs.
Mary (Sheffield) Moriarty, widow of the late George Andrews
Moriarty, Esq., also survives him.
The conmiunity in which Mr. Sheffield lived appreciated at its true
value his well-spent life and realized the loss that it had sustained in
his death. His personal characteristics are thus described in a
biographical sketch published in the local newspaper:
''Mr. Sheffield was of an unusually genial and happy disposition, and his
hospitality knew no bounds. His home life was ideal, and to his children he
was always a friend and companion who shared with them their pleasures
and activities. In his home and at the camps in which he entertained his
many friends he was a charming host, always considerate, ever solicitous of
their enjoyment of the many things he shared with them. In every gathering
in which he participated for business puiposes, he was ever an agreeable
entertainer as well as an associate to whom his fellow directors or trustees
looked for advice on a wide range of topics. . To the various public
offices which he had held he brought wide experience in affairs to the success-
ful performance of the manifold and arduous duties which he was called upon
to discharge. In the legal profession, not only of Newport but of the state,
he was recognized as a leader and his success at the bar for many years was
1020] The Erakine Family of Bristol, Me, 87
due not only to his extensive legal knowledge but also to the thoroughness
of detail and the technical skill which were manifest in every case in which
he was engaged. ... In everything in which he engaged he was to a
malted degree a dependable, earnest, efficient and valuable worker . . . .
He waa above all a man who did all he could for his fellow-man, in whatever
eondition he found him."*
And the same paper^ in an editorial article, says of Mr. Sheffield:
'^ew men have a wider range of reading and study, few a more varied
knoiHedge of men and experience of life in all its aspects. Few possess so
jmigft a fond of reminiscence and anecdote, ready at a moment's call, and few
enjoy more ^nuinely the telling of a good story or the cracking of an inno-
eent lofce. This made him an unusuafiy charmmg companion and conversa-
tkmalint, and in any company where he might be found he was fairly certain
to be al or near the centre of interest. Withal he was serious-minded,
•eholaily, thoughtful, and deeply rehgious — a well-rounded, well-balanced
Tbosihly both the manner and the place of his death would have been of
Us own efaoioe. A man of affairs, full of the zest of life, whenever his work
riKMild be done he would not have cared to linger idle on the stage. A lover
of natore and of nature's sweet solitude and tender intimacies, he had found
neat delist and comfort in recent years in his summer camp in Exeter.
what more fitting, perhaf^ in his own thought, than that ms last wsJk
dwahi be tiirou^ the familiar woods, that his last moments should be spent
the lake which he had come so to love?"

"Asians" of Boothbay, widow, administratrix of the estate of
John "Erskine," late of Bristol, deceased, conveyed to Thomas
McClure, for £70, 60 acres of land on the "Damascoty river in

THE DUNNINGS OF MAINE
Bj Rev. Everett Schermerhorn Stackpolb, A.M., D.D., of Bath, Me.
Thb following genealogy makes various additions to accounts pre-
Tioiisly published of Andrew Dunning of Brunswick, Me., and his
descendants, and corrects many erroneous statements about this
famfly iJtiat have appeared in print.
Dunning is an old, Anglo-Saxon clan name. Dunnington, a hamlet
of Warwickshire, England, was probably the home of the clan in that
eoimty, and is mentioned in records of the twelfth century. In
York^ure, about the same time, a place called Dunningsley is found.
In Scotlfl^d, not far from Inverness, is the town of Dunning. The
surname Dunning was common in Dorset in the sixteenth century,
and a little later it is foimd in Devonshire. The Scottish records
mention persons named Dunning very frequently in the fifteenth
and sixteenth centuries. Robert Dunning was a member of the
Scottish Parliament in 1472, 1475, and 1482. James, son of the
* Marie LouIm C«mpion wm bom in Fnnoe.
98 The Dunninga of Maine [April
late John Dunning, was apprenticed to David Dunning, saddler, of
Edinburgh in 1597.
Many Scotch families passed over to the northern part of Ireland
about the year 1600. Andrew Dimning was buried at Lough Deny
22 May 1662. His daughter Mary was buried 6 June 16^, as the
register of Deny Cathedral, parish of Templemore, .Londonderry,
L^land, declares.
Some have tried to connect the Dimnings of Maine with the family
of Lord Ashburton, but all evidence is against the claim. John
Dunning of Ashburton, lawyer, was bom in 1700 'and died in 1780.
His son John was bom 18 Oct. 1731, was admitted to the "Rngligh
bar in 1756, was elected member of Parliament in 1768, married
Elizabeth Baring in 1780, was elevated to the peerage in 1782, and
died at Exmouth, England, 18 Aug. 1783. He was celebrated for
his eloquence and legal abilities. His lands and titles were inherited
by his only surviving son, Richard Barr Dimning, who was bom 20
Sept. 1782, married 17 Sept. 1805 Anna, daughter of William
Cimningham, and died without issue 15 Feb. 1823. He bequeathed
the portions of his estate which had long been in the Dunning family
to the nearest collateral male heir, if such heir could be found within
three months of the testator's death. John Dimning of London,
retailer of beer, proved his claim to the estate, and his descendants
were living upon it in 1852, as is learned from a letter of George F.
Dunning of Farmington, Conn., who visited Ekigland in that year
and searched in vain for his ancestors. The Dunning family of
Maine sent over a representative to investigate their right to the
above-named estate, which imagination claimed to be worth fifty
miUions of dollars. No Dunning in America had any claim.whatever
to the estate and no connection whatever with the Dunning family
of Ashburton, except through the ancient clan.
There were Dunnings in New England at an early date. George
Dunning was a settler at New Haven, Ck)nn., as early as 1644, owning
a part of the present campus of Yale University. His descendants
are numerous. Benjamin Dimning, dealer in leather, had a son
Benjamin, who was bom in Boston, 'Mass., 3 Mar. 1679. He
probably went to Stratford, Conn., and to Long Island. His brother,
John Dimning, settled at Newtown, Conn. A younger brother,
Michael Dunning, is said to have married Margaret Foster at Jamaica,
Long Island, in 1710, and to have settled at Goshen, Orange Co.,
N. Y., in 1714, where he had sons, Jacob, Samuel, James, and MichaeL
Hick Dunning married at Hingham, Mass., 7 Dec. 1669, Sarah Joy,
daughter of Thomas and Joan (Gallop), and had a son, Edmund, who
was bom at Hingham 31 Mar. 1672.* Jonathan Dunning was a
soldier in King PhiUp's War in 1676.
It is quite clear that the Dunning family of Bmnswickf came over
with the so-called Scotch-Irish immigrants of 1717-18 from London-
derry, Ireland. The military enrolment of Andrew Dunning and
his sons in 1723 declares that they came from Ireland. But, although

Maine, unless another State or region is indicated in the text or may be easily inferred from the
eontezt.
1820] The Dunninga of Maine 99
sometimes called Irish, they were all Scotch, who had Uved for one
or two generations in Ireland.
1. Andrew* Dunning, bom about 1664, died at Brunswick 18
Jan. 1736 [71736/7], aged 72 years. He married, according to tradi-
tion, Susan Bond, who perished in the burning of her house a year
after her husband's death. A negro slave narrowly escaped death
at the same time.
Andrew Dunning came to New England in 1717, and in that year
bmif^t lots in the town of Brunswick, as the records of the Pejepscot
Company declare. The following year, as it seems, his family came
over with the immigrants from the north of Ireland. His son, David
Donning, aged 86 in 1793, testified that he had Uved in Brunswick
"ever ainpe I was a boy of twelve years of age." On 8 Oct. 1767 the
flune David Dunning deposed "that on or about the year 1718 I
eame first to Boston and in the same vessel with Mr. Andrew Mc-
Fa^en and his wife (who is now a widow) and that soon after we
cttne to Boston we came down together in the same vessel to the
eastern country; that the said McFadden and his wife went to live at
i fdaoe in merry meeting bay called Somersett. — ^The deponent adds
that he has lived in the town of Brunswick constantly ever since the
year one thousand seven himdred and eighteen and within ten or
fifteen miles of Somersett aforesaid."*
The ship MaceuUum, James Law, master, arrived at Boston from
Londonderry, Ireland, 1 Sept. 1718. The same ship sailed from
Boston to Meiry Meeting Bay on 8 Sept. 1718. Rev. James Wood-
ade in 1723 said in a petition that ''he with 40 families, consisting of
ibove 160 persons did in the year 1718 embarque on a ship at Derry
Louf^ in Ireland in order to erect a colony at Casco Bay, in your
Majestys Province of Main in New England. That being arrived
they made a settlement at a place called by the Indians Pegipscot,
but by them Brunswick, within 4 miles from Fort George, where he
had a garrison house."
Tliat garrison house was built by the Pejepscot Company at
Maonoit, on Middle Bay, in the southerly part of Brunswick. Near
by Andrew Dunning bought his lots and built his house, on the farm
occupied in 1878 by Patrick McManus. Here he Uved as a black-
smith and farmer, '' much respected for his integrity and uprightness
of Character." He was buried in the old cemetery near the first
meeting house, on Main Street, a mile or so south of Bowdoin College,
uui lus gravestone is said to be the oldest one in Brunswick and to
have been made by his son James. The inscription reads as follows:
Here lyeth the Body of Mr Andrew Diming who departed this life

2. Lieut. James' Dunning (Andrew^) , of Brunswick, bom in 1691,
died 8 June 1752. He married Martha LiTHaow, daughter
of Capt. Robert, as tradition, supported by the McKeen
Manuscripts, says. He lived on the homeste^ at Maquoit.
He was selectman in 1739, 1743, and 1746. He was com-
missioner to the General Court in 1747, a soldier in Captain
Giles's company in 1723-24, and afterwards a lieutenant in the
militia. It was, perhaps, his widow whose intention of mar-
riage to Wait Herrick of Nobletown was published 5 Apr. 1759.

and Mary (Harmon)* of York and granddaughter of Thomas
Donnell. Deborah (Donnell) Dunning died in 1771, in the
67th year of her age, ^'deserving," as her gravestone saySf
''the best character as a wife, a mother, a neighbor and a
Christian, and will be remembered with great affection and
esteem by all who knew her." William Dunmng came to
Brunswick in 1718, but the attacks of the Indians in 1724
induced him to settle at York.

with his father, first wife, brother James, and several children
in the old cemetery, a mile or so south of Bowdoin Ck>llege.
The inscriptions on their slate gravestones are still legible. He
married first, in Boston, Mass., 5 Dec. 1735 (Rev. John
Moorhead, pastor of the Presbyterian Church, where the
marriage is recorded, officiating). Mart Todd, who died 16
Aug. 1784, aged 74, probably daughter of John and Rachel
(Nelson) and sister of Andrew Todd of Londonderry, N. H.,
and of Capt. Alexander Todd of Boston; and secondly, 29
Jan. 1788, Mrs. Mary (Lithgow) Hunter, daughter of Capt.
Robert Lithgow and widow of Capt. Adam Hunter of Topsham.
She was a sister of the wife of David Dimning's brother James
(2). David Dimning and his second wife were both over
eighty years of age at the time of their marriage.
David Dimning came to Brunswick in 1718. He was a
soldier in Captain Giles's company in 1723-4, when seventeen
years of age. He owned a large part of the land where the
village of Brunswick now stands, having bought, 25 Sept.
1730, of Rowling Norton of Salisbury, Mass., 97 acres "border-
ing on Amos cogen river," as the deed says. This Norton had
served with him in Captain Giles's company. On 10 Oct.
1735 David Dunning sold land in Londonderry, N. H., and
this indicates, perhaps, a short residence in that place. (Cf .
deed at Concord, N. H.)
He built a garrison house in Brunswick, near the spot where
the town hall now (1920) stands, and the site has been marked
with an appropriate historical tablet. "It was two stories
high, forty feet long, and twenty-two feet wide. The second
story projected about three or four feet over the first, and the
walls had loop-holes for the purpose of enabling the inmates
to fire upon the Indians when necessity required. There was
a tower on the top, from which the teams could be watched on
their way to and from the Merriconeag Marshes." (History
of Brunswick, p. 634.)
In this garrison all his children were bom. In 1772 he
built a house near his garrison, on Main Street, and here he
died. Here also his son John kept a tavern, calling it "Wash-
ington Hall." It was burned in 1856. When Fort George
was dismantled in 1761, David Dunning and Jeremiah Moulton
bright the site for £133. 6s. 8d. They owned the water
power on both sides of the river and built the first dam and
sawmill. Fort George stood where the big cotton mill now
stands, at the lower end of Main Street.
An old record says that David Dunning "was one of the most
active, enterprising and respected men of his time." He was
a deacon in the Congregational Church, the first representative
of Brunswick in the General Court of Massachusetts, in 1742-3,
a member of the first Board of Selectmen in 1739, a selectman
again in 1741 and 1749, and town clerk in 1762. He appears
as lieutenant in the mihtia in 1746 and was commissioned
captain by Governor Shirley about 1748. Later in life he
102 The Dunnings of Maine [Apti
was captain of an ''Alarm Company." In Jan. 1755 h
served twenty-one days in helping to transport stores for th
soldiers at Forts Western and Halifax, in Augusta and Winslo^
hauling these stores by handsleds on the ice from Arrowsic. L
lumbenng and military expeditions he learned the value c
the surrounding country, and, when the town of Royalsborougli
now Durham, was planned in 1762, he bought one-sixteentl
of the township. In the division of lots he drew, among othen
Lot 91, in the northern part of the town, and in 1783 he gav
a deed of it, 75 acres, to his daughter, EUzabeth Stackpole.
A pewter platter, inscribed with the initials D. D., is in th
possession, of the Stack{>ole family, and Mrs. EUzabeth (Duo
ning) Alexander of Harpswell had, in 1900, a silver spoon witi
the initisJs A. D., which Andrew Dimning brought with hii
m 1717.

JOHN DEVEREUX OF MARBLEHEAD, MASS..
AND SOME OF HIS DESCENDANTS
By Mrs. Frank M. Anoellotti of San Rafael, Cal.
Thih article docs not claim to be a record of all the descendants d
.Jrihn Dovercux of Salem and Marblehead,t or even of all of those
who Htill Ijear the Devereux name. Many gaps in the family history
v.<}\i\(l not be filled, as connecting links were missing in public records
anrl private records were not always available. It is hoped that
(IcHcendants of John Devereux who do not find their names in the
following pages will communicate with the compiler of this genealogy.
*Arrorrling to Rbomtcr, vol. 12, p. 57, Nath&niel Little's daughter Faith, who died Dei. 27,
17A;<, agad 8 month*, liea buried on hia left.
t All plaeeN fiientioned in thia article are tituated within the preeent limits of the CcHnmoik-
wealUi of Massaehusetts, unless another State or region is indicated in the text or t»my be easily
Infrrred from ths context.
1920] Descendants of John Devereux 115
1. JoHN^ Devereux, of Salem and Marblehead, fanner, was
bcnm probably about 1615,* came to New England about 1630, per-
haps m the fleet with Winthrop, and died between 24 Dec. 1694,
wiien he deposed in court, and 20 May 1695, when his will was
proved. He married Ann , bom about 1620, who survived
mm and died at Marblehead 26 Apr. 1708, in her 88th year.f
John Devereux of Marblehead, a^ed about 80 years, deposed on
21 Dec; 1694 "yt about ye yeare of Our Lord One thousand and six
hundred and thirty I came over from old England to New England,
k ye place of my abode and residence has since been Salem & Marble-
head.'' (Essex C!ourt Files.) The first grant of land to him was in
Salem, in 1636. In 1637 a half acre was granted to ^rn for a dwelling
hoiSBe. He was at Marblehead in 1637. He first rented and &ially
purchased, in 1659, the land in Marblehead which had belonged to
Bev. Hugh Peters and which was afterwards known as the ''Devereux
iann.'' Tlie old house there is commemorated by Longfellow in
Us poem called "Driftwood." After John Devereux's death this
iann was claimed by Elizabeth Barker of Deptf ord, England, daugh-
ter and heir of Rev. Hugh Peters, as is set forth below in the records
idating to the estate of John Devereux; and Robert Devereux, son
of John, was at last compelled to buy again, for £350 sjberling, the
land for which his father had already paid. John Devereux's name
wpears fnHn time to time in the records and files of the coiurts of
EfiBex County, Mass., sometimes as a witness and sometimes as
plaintiflF or defendant in cases coming before these courts.^ He
was admitted as freeman 16 May 1683.
Hie will of John Devereux, omitting the customary religious
phrases and certain legal expressions, is as follows :§
'In the Namb of God Amen the fourth day of September in y« yeare of
oar lord 1693 ... I John Devereux of marblehead in the County
of Essex in New ei^land Yeoman . . . Doe make . . . And Declare,
this my last Will and testament ... I give and bequeath unto my Sonn
Bobert Devereux two thirdes of all my land within the Stonnwall now Iving
in Marblehead being three hundred Acres more or less with my now dwd^ing
house and Bame, only I giv unto my Son Roberts Son Joseph twenty Acres
(tf iMid within y« Stonn wall which is out of the two thirds of my Son Kob^ts
land before meDtioned which land l3dng next to marblehead comon Jynin^
to my land without the Stonn wall, when he shall be: 21 yeares of a^, to
them and there heires (All the land abovementioned) in way of mtale
forever and ever. And to remaine in the family and name of the Devereuxes
from generation to generation in way of intale fforever and ever Item I
Sive and bequeath unto the three sonns of my Sonn Humphiy Devereux
eceasd that is to say John Humphry and Ralph Devereux one third imrt of
my land; and meddow that is now before my, now, dwelhng hous, within the
*See deposition of 1094, given below. His age is given also as 45 in 1666 and as 55 in 1672;
and at the March Term, 1669, and the November Term, 1670, he deposed, aged 50 years (Vital
Reeoffda of Marblehead, vol. 3, p. 34). It seems, therefore, impossible to determine the exact
Tear of his birth from the records thus far discovered.
t She deposed in June 1664, aged about 43 years, in Sept. 1666, aged 46 srears. and in June
1667, aged about 46 srears. (Vital Records of Marblehead, vol. 8, p. 84.)

A NEW ENGLAND TEMPLE OF HONOR*
By Hon. Jambb Phinnet Baxter, A.M.. Litt. D.,
Pkwdent of the New England Historic Genealogical Society
OF THB New England Histobic Genealogical So-
oxTT, Ladies and Gentlebcen:
We have assembled to celebrate the seventy-fifth anniversary of
Society in this Pilgrim year, so fraught with precious memories
€f an event the most important in the annals of New England save
tihe hiwHng of Winthrop, and which will prove to be an aclmowledged
iMIJmlion to the world if we are able to live up to the ideals of our
iwefathpfs; hence I may be pardoned for repeating the trite saying
ttat history is but the record of God's providence, as its repetition
flannot fail to be useful until it takes its place among the self-evident
tratlw of the human mind.
In the history of nations there is none in which this truth is more
appaient than in our own, since never before has there been a like
epportunity afforded to develop a form of government in which the
aspiiations of men could find free play. In the Old World
governments, devised for the aggrandizement of a privi-
daas, have been instrumental in submerging many of their
task aobjectSi which checked their growth and impaired their stability.
James Stuart succeeded EUzabeth Tudor in the royal govem-
of England, he brought with him ill-conceived theories of govern-
which contributed largely toward precipitating the great revo-
fataon m which his son was brought to the block and England made a
nffukXic. Elisabeth had been autocratic enough, but she had been
w e lj f restrained by that greatest of English statesmen, William Cecil,
! vlile her successor came under the influence of lesser men, who
rijgred upon the weak points which he so conspicuously displayed.
ffii CBKearBioiis into the fields of theological controversy, bnngmg him
ixmtact with sectarians of extreme views, stimulated his zeal to
his own opinions, and, as dissent from the more rigid and
artifidal forms of doctrine was increasing, he adopted the unwise
poiiQr of expatriation, which resulted in the ever memorable landing
on rljrmoutn Rock, the Winthrop colony, and the founding of New
Eogjand.
Never in the history of any country has so remarkable a body
of men as the Pilgrims and the Puritans been so providentially
brought together to build a nation; for, whatever may be said to the
OQQtnuy, history makes evident the fact that the spirit of New
England is the true Americanism which is to-day the spirit of the
Natkm, for it has been aptly said of these pioneers that God sifted the
belt seed of Old England for planting New Eng^d.
In this hearing it hardly seems proper to eulogize these men; they
need no'etUogy here. For some time, and especially during the
put year, there has been a persistent attempt to defame and belittle
ddhrwtd in Focd Hall. Aahbnrton PUoe, Boston. 18 Mar. 1990. at the oelebratioii of
aanlfiiMiy of tho iaeorporation of tho Now EnglanH Hklorio Gonoalocieal

the Pilgrim and the Puritan, who together rightly earned the title of
New England's Founders. Certainly their descendants do not desiie
to exaggerate the virtues of their ancestors. They would, however,
shield them from misrepresentation.
That they wrought faithfully under hardships and privatioiiB to
lay the f oimdation of a great conmionwealth we have the evideaoBi
about us after nearly three centuries. If they sometimes made mis-
takes, their accomplishments cast their errors into the shade, and
these should not be dragged forth by carping critics to obscure their
virtues.
The institutions of learning, in which we class not only our schooky
our colleges, and churches, but our antiquarian, historical, and gaoBBr
logical societies, wiU see to the preservation of the true historv of
the b^nningR of our national history, and none other more faithndjljr
n this
than this Society, whose foimders had this single object in
study and preservation of the memories of &08e whose spirit has
stamped itself ineffaceably upon the consciousness of New Wn|^nd>
The memory 6{ these men, whose ideal was the creation of a eom-
monwealth in which all men loyal to God and the brotheriiood of maa
should enjoy imder His providence civil Uberty and the e x e r cM e of
the rights of private conscience, is especially precious to this Sode^.
Three years ago, as you know, I advocated the erection of a memorial
building or Temple of Honor, to commemorate them on this tat*
centenary of the landing at Plymouth. Several meetings were hdd to
' discuss the subject, but the great World War broke upon us, and ft
was found impossible to carry out the project at this time.
Though it is evident that a memorial building in honor of the
Fathers of New England cannot be erected for some time to come, ft is
certain that it will be at a future day, and I am calling the attentioo
of this Society to the subject on this, as it seems to me, most fittiiig
occasion, that it may be recorded and serve as a reminder of its
importance to those who wQl succeed us.
This Society, I know, will of necessity lead in this great work, and
its accomplishment will be of incalculable importance to the pec^ib
of New England, and, reflectively, to the Nation, many of whon
ideals derived from the Fathers of New England have inqxred it in
achieving its present position among the nations of the wtxUL Tbe
men who in the early part of the seventeenth century landed oo our
North American shores were men of vision, animated by a great
purpose* the founding of conmionwealths, and their desoendantB,
inheriting the virtues of their fathers, biased a path throof^ tiie vast
wilderness which barred their way to the West, until tbej readied
the golden gates of the Pacific, and made it possible to exdaim:
"No f^nt-up Utica contimct? our poffreffs.
For tbe whole hoimdlMS contizietit is cun^'*
Thetse men. with hearts throbbing with the blood of the Flalhen
of New En^and. and insf^ned by their ideals, have given to the Nation
many of its noblest characteristics, which must be cheris h e d and pte-
j^erred if it is tq lead as the ejcemplar of liberty. Justice, and Brother-
hood among the nations of the world. But to accompliah this these
d<tM^endants of New England fathers must be imited m the purpose
1820] A New England Temple of Honor 123
niuoh three centuries ago animated the men in the Uttle cabin of the
MmgfUnweTf when they signed their names to that remarkable declarar
tkm of principles which gave vitality to our national constitution.
We have reached a period when without the cooperation of the
milliniiB who bear the blood of the Founders of New England our
U^ hopes for the future welfare of this country may fail of fruition.
Tlie pdh<7 of this Society should be to encourage this union.
Let us r^ect upon what has happened since the day when we
adueved our independence, and threw wide our gates wil^ an aU too
g me i ou s impulse of hospitality. Actuated by a laudable ambition to
better their condition, vast niunbers of the people of all parts of the
WQtld, who had been oppressed by too exacting laws, flocked to our
dKmSy many of them valuable additions to our population. Among
tfasm, however, were many who, unfit to avail themselves of the bless-
iiB of feeegovemment, have proved to be a menace to the Nation's
welfare. These advocates and supporters of theories attractive to
latniiiyd minds, if not checked, may be the cause of a destructive
levolution. ^ How can this be met successfully? The only answer is,
fagr instruction in the principles which actuated the men and women
1^ laid the foundations of these free commonwealths, whose prin-
cqiks have been wrought into our national constitution, which
marchiflts and their aUies would destroy and substitute in its place a
dung of their own, in which License would take the place of Liberty,
Ghas Favoritism the place of Equality, and the Nullification of
Property Sights the place of Justice. During the past few years we
have been receiving a larger percentage thim ever before of imde-
naUe immigrants, and now that the war ha23 closed, the nations
in it will hold back their able men and burden us with the
and feeble unless Congress puts up sufficient barriers against
tiMOiy which it is imlikely to do. «
To the men whom dangerous theorists are daily making their dupes
the history of the Founders of our Nation is a closed book, and I
believe that the most effective way to deprive the dangerous advo-
cates of false theories of government of an audience is to instruct the
minformed in the principles of those who created the early history of
our country. Our churches, our schools, all our philanthropic
are doing good work in this field, but they cannot sufficiently
the uninstructed masses of our varied population. They
mnBt be reached by readier means; and few will deny that a building
ndi as I have advocated would not only be a pious tribute to our
forefathers but a most effective method of instruction to the masses
iriio would throng its pictorial halls, which would visualize to them
not only those who devoted their Uves to making here a refuge for the
o pprc B Qcd of all lands, but the striking events of our history. Such a
temple would exert an educational influence upon the uninstructed of
incalculable worth.
Of course you will agree that sucli a structure should be of imposing
diaiBcter, emphasizing the worthiest expression of strength, dignity,
and simidicity ; that it should be built of material from New Eli^land
quarries, wrought by the hands of New England people, and adorned
hj the skill of New England artists; and that upon its walls should be

pictorially recorded the chief events of New England history — the
hnding at Plymouth, at Cape Ann, at Salem, at Boston, the geDesb
ot Rhode Island, Vermont, New Hwipshire, Connecticut, and Maine.
In fact, this building should not only be a memorial of New England's
benefactors and a credit to its builders, but it should also be a mcmu-
ment to the skill and art of New England in the twentieth century.
^ I submit this to you, my friends, and to our successors, who in due
time, I have full faith, will carry out this plan with such modification
as they may deem wise.

Addendum: The Weston Familt
Through his mother, Mary Weston, Jeremiah Clarke of Rhode
Island was related to the Weston family, an Essex family of great
prominence in the reigns of the later Tudors and early Stuarts.
Richard Weston, uncle of Jeremiah Clarke, was lord hi|^ treasurer
of England, and was created by King Charles I Earl of Portland.
He and several other members of the family were Roman Catholics,
either secretly or openly, and in the Civil War most <rf them lyere
stanch Royalists. Much information about the family may be
foimd in English books, especially in Morant's "History and Anth
quities of the County of Essex," Waters's "GenealogiGBd Memoiit
of the Extinct Family of Chester of Chicheley," "The ^^sitatioDi of
*Hit fixrt wife, Mercy . wm bora in 1031 and died 21 Se^ 1075.
1920] Qenedlogicdl Research in England 135
:" (Publications of the HarUian Society, vols. 13 and 14), and
die "Dictionary of National Biography/' and it is chiefly from these
luihorities that the following Weston pedigree has been compiled,
!ar the purt)06e of presenting to the readers of the Register an
leooimt of some of the noteworthy English connections of the
Sliode Island settler.
According to-Morant (op. cU,, vol. 2, pp. 70-71, 171, reprint of
1816) tiie family to which Mary Weston and her brother, the Earl
ol Portiand, belonged was descended from Michael de Weston,
ivbo settled in Essex about 14 Edward I [1286]. The claim that he
qpnng from an ancient family of Westons in Staffordshire must be
rejected. Humfret de Weston, one of Michael's sons, established
himself at Prested Hall, in Feering, co. Essex, where he was Uving
in 1360 and where his descendants flourished until the beginning of
the seventeenth century. In the early years of the sixteenth cen-
tmy Prested Hall was held by WiUiam Weston (1), with whom
the following pedigree begins.
1. William Weston, of Prested Hall, Feering, co. Essex, and
of London, mercer, died between 20 June 1514, the date of his will,
lad 6 Feb. 1514/15, when his will was proved: He married Mabgaret
• , who was living 20 June 1514, but from his will it is appar-
ontly to be inferred that she was not his first wife.
In his will he directs that if he dies in the parish of All Hallows,
Soa^ Lane, London, he is to be buried in the churchyard ''between
mj father's seller window and the bordyd dore of my parlor, as
nigh unto the Church wall as may be." He bequeaths to the
^'Masyndewe" [Maison Dieu] at Dover, on condition that the Master
lad Brethren pray for the souls of Sir Harry Overe, John Chapman,
Robert Basey, and Agnes Sislington. He bequeaths to his cousin
Foan with his sister at Keldon [Kelvedon, co. Essex] 6s. 8d., and to
bis aieter 10s. One third part of his estate is to be divided between
ids five children, viz., to Master Weston in the New College at
[>xford £5, to Richard Weston £10, to Thomas and John Weston
£20 each, and the residue to Mary Weston on her marriage. One
>ther third part of his estate is given to Margaret, his wife, and
ilso Us manor of Prested Hall in Essex in the parishes of Feering
md Messing, for her Ufe, with remainder to his children. Executors:
iiis said wife Margaret, Master William Weston, her eldest son^ and
rhomas Weston, her son. (P. C. C, Fettiplace, 31.)
Child, probably by first wife:
i. Richard, of Prested Hall and Colchester, co. Essex, mentioned in
his father's will, and said by Morant {op. cit.) to be the eldest
son; d. in 1641; m. Eliza3Bth . Child: 1. John.*

^Sobert W«ston, of Prested Hall, Baq., son and heir of this John, died 6 June 1601. He

RTcston left two daughters, coheirs, Anne, aged 9 srears and 3 months, and Mary, aged 6 ymxn
lad 10 Tirr"*>^ Mary probably died young. Her sister Anne married Dean Tindall ol Qreat

rindsU family, and thenoe passed by sale into other hands. (Morant. op. eif.. voL 2, p. 171.)

have been a son of John Weston (2), and Morant's statement
' is probably correct.t He was bom in 1510, and died 6 July
1572. He married first, about 1549, Wibubga (Catbbt)

and thirdly, at Chicheley, co. Bucks, 7 July 1566, Elbabkib

Richard Weston was educated for the profession of law,
and was called to the bar at the Middle T&aofiB, I/mdoo,
where he was reader in the autumn of 1554. He became emi-
nent in his profession, and with the proceeds <rf his laeor
iive practice purchased in 1554 the manor of Skroeiui in
Roxwell, which became the family seat. On 10 Oct. 1655 he
was returned to Parliament for Maldon, oo. Eebcx, on 90

neasing, co. Essex, and of London, Esq., by his wife Alice,
and widow of William Thwaites of the manor of Newland
Hall, CO. Essex, an alderman of London. Sir Jerome Weston's
second wife is not mentioned in his will, and therefore prob-
ably died before 28 Dec. 1603, when the will was made.
Sir Jerome Weston was high sheriff of Essex in 1599, and
was knighted by King James I at the Charterhouse 11 May
1603. At his death he held, besides other estates formerly
hdd by his father, the manor of Neyland, co. Suffolk, and
1^ manor of Berwick Hall in White Colne, co. Essex.
His Christian name is spelled in various ways, such as
"Gerrom," "Hierome," "Jeromye,*' etc. Two of ms daughters
had sons named Jeremy, viz., Ann Williams and Maiy Clarke,
and Us daughter Elisabeth Cotton had a son named Jerome;
and all three of these children were probably named for their
grandfather, Sir Jerome Weston.

4. Robert Ratthebecke {ThomoB)^ of Homcastley co.
draper, the testator of 9 Apr. 1571, probably bom at Horn-
castle about 1542, died before his father, and was buried at
Homcastle 11 Apr. 1571. He married, probably about 1561,
Mabgabet Hutchinson, daughter of William and Dorothy
( ) of Lincoln, and his wife's mother became later,
after his death, the second wife of his father {fride tupra, 2).
Margaret (Hutchinson) Raithebecke survived her husband
and married secondly, at Homcastle, 14 July 1572, Francis
Shaw.
That Robert Raithebecke's wife was Margaret Hutchinson
is evident from passages in several wills. In his own will
{vide Registeb, vol. 72, page 56) Robert Raithebecke mentioDS
Margaret, his wife, ''my brother and my sister Neale," and
also ''John Neale, my brother-in-law;" and this will was made
more than four years before Margery Neale's mother was
married to the testator's father, so that the "brother*' and
"sister" Neale mentioned were not the stepbrother and st^
sister of the testator. Dorothy ( ) (Hutchinson) (Hunter)
Raithbeck, widow of Thomas Raithebecke (the father of
Robert), in her will dated 31 Jan. 1591/2 and proved 5 Apr.
1592 {vide Registeb, vol. 72, page 57), mentions Thomas
Raithbecke, Ann Hammerton, and Frauncis Freestone, who
were children of Robert Raithebecke and her own grand-
children, if Robert's wife was her daughter; and she also men-
tions, among others, her daughter "Margerye Neall/' Robert
Raithbeck, "sone to James Raithbeck" (and thmfore her
third husband's grandson), the children of Robert Freestone,
who was the husband of Robert Raithebecke's daughter
Frances, and her (the testatrix's) son [i. e., son-in-law] Jdim
Neall. Robert Freestone and Thomas Hammarton were
appointed supervisors of her will, and John Neale was one of
the executors. John Neall, of Homcastle, tanner, the husband
of Margery (Hutchinson) Neale, in his will dated 31 Aug. 1594
and proved 11 Feb. 1594/5 {vide Registeb, vol. 51, page 121,
or Waters's Genealogical Gleanings in England, voL 2, page
1262), bequeathed to Robert Freestone, Thomas RaiUiebecke,
and Thomas Hamerton, among others, and "to every of their
wives." Margery (Hutchinson) Neale, of Homcastle, widow,
sister of Margaret (Hutchinson) Raithebecke, in her mil dated
10 July 1611 and proved 10 May 1613 (ib.), mentions among
others Anne Hamerton, "my niece," and her son Nichdas,
*In Linoolnahire Pedigrees, vol. 3, p. 813. thia Thomas is given erroneoudj tm a
Rathebeoke (2).
1020] Oenealogieal Reseoarch in England 146
Robert Freeston's son Robert and daughters Margery ('' my god
daughter")) Anne, and Mary, and Thomas Rathbecke, '%y
late nephew's son/' and his sister Margaret. It is to be noted
that neither John Neall nor his widow Margery mentioned in
their wills the children of James Raithebecke, Robert's brother,
as tiiey would probably have done if the children of James had
becm as nearly related to the testators as the children of Robert.
Now Mar^u^t Hutchinson, daughter of William and Dorothy
and sister of Margery (Hutchinson) Neale, was, according to
her father's will, unmarried and imder twenty-one years of
age on 4 Jan. 1556/7. She is not otherwise accotmted for, and
was undoubtedly the Margaret who became the wife of Robert
Rakhebecke, whose first child, according to the records tiius
far discovea^, was baptized 24 May 1562.

INSCRIPTIONS IN THE TOWN CEMETERY
AT THE VILLAGE OF BAKERSFIELD, VT.
Copied and communicated by Herbert Williams Dknio, A.M.,
of New York City
The town of Bakersfield is situated in the eastern part (tf FkenUi
County, Vt., fifteen miles east from St. AlbiuiSy the shiie town. It
is bounded on the north by the town of Enoaburg, on the east hgr ^
A very ^s Goro and the town of Waterville, on the south by tte toin| .
of Fletcher, and on the west by the town of Fairfield. In Januiii :
1791 a charter for 10,000 acres of land in what is now BakecafieB i
was i^ucii by the State of Vermont to Luke Knowlton, who in tii0 1
fcJlowing numth sold this grant to Joseph Baker fcur 500 poundl -^
lawful money. In 1792 the town of Sinithfieldy containiog 23,000 J
acit^ which had been chartered by New Hainprftire in 1763,t in4 ^
dismembered by Vermont « and a part of it was jdned to Enowltoo^ #
icrant and was nanted Bakersfield, the ronainder ooDstituting a t

mried in Bakersfield, and some of their descendants are still living
i the town. Other early settlers were Thomas Barnes, f3kha
Silas Hazeltine, Anoiory Parker, William Perkins, Ebeneaer
Amos Town, Eben Barlow, Joseph Wilkinson, and Axariah
Gravestones of members of all these families are in the to¥m
In 1796 there were twenty freemen, legal voters, in the to¥m.
I 1799 thirteen more voters had qualifieid. In 1800 forty new
imiHeB moved into the town. The population to-day is about 1100.
ke firat death in the town was that of Isaac Freeman Famsworth,
1 1796; the second, that of BHisha P. Pratt, a boy of eleven years,
I the same year.
The land for the town cemetery was given by Joseph Baker, who
bo gave the "Conmion" adjoining it on the west, near the south
ad d the village. About 1865 the cemetery was extended by
nrcfaase towards the east. By the will of Peter Bent Brigham, a
alive of liie town, who in his youth had gone to Boston to seek
it fortune and who died in 1877, the town received a gift of $10,000,
be income of which is to be used in caring for the cemetery in which
18 parents were biuied. This restriction, therefore, prevents the
zpenditure of any of the income in caring for any other cemetery,
irfore this time the cemetery had presented the usual appearance
f a New England biuying ground; but, on the acceptance of this
jift by the town, the task of improvement was begun. Weeds and
ivergrown shrubbery were removed, most of the trees were cut
bwn, the groimd was levelled, lot fences and footstones were taken
.way, paths and driveways were gravelled, flowers and shrubs were
ihnted, and trees were set out along the paths and fence. Later
be old portion of the cemetery was extended southwards, and the
O^way was properly located. The Common, which in the years
mmediately preceding had been used chiefly for ball games and cir-
Qses, was fenced in and planted with flowers by the town, and was
fought into harmony with the cemetery. The cemetery is now
id cared for, the grass is cut with hwd lawn mowers, and an
ttractive appearance has been given to the whole enclosure.
Of late years not a few French Canadians — for the cemetery is
m to all residents of the town — have selected this place for the
Nrial of members of their families, for they know that the grounds
M always be cared for. In another part of the village there is a
loman Catholic cemetery, opened about 1865, the care of which
bvohres upon the owners of the individual lots. The town ceme-
■y at East Bakersfield, the inscriptions in which were printed
I the Reoibteb of July 1919 (vol. 73, pp. 186-188), has, perhaps,
0t been used for interments for more than forty years.* Many
vmer residents of the district known as ''Egypt," in the west part
, rol. 73. p. 186. it wma stated that "the inscription of latest certain date" in the
cemetery was that of Benjamin Upton, who died 1 Jan. 1877. It has been
howev e r, that the date on the sr^vestone of Daphne C. wife of H. W. Dunham, of
OB a aeo un t of the breakinff of the stone, only the word "June" was legible, was originally
11« 1877," and therefore J>aphne C. Dunham was the last person to be buried in that
for whom there is a grayestone.

REPORT OF THE COUNCIL
Prepared by John Cabroll Chase
This institution was seventy-five years old as an organization
in 1019 and will celebrate its seventy-fifth anniversary as a cor-
poration in 1920. It was three-quarters of a century ago, in October
1844, that several gentlemen met at the home of Mr. William H.
Montague, in Orange Street, Boston, to discuss the advisability
of organizing a society for the purpose of awakening and stimulating
interest in genealogical and heraldic studies. On Friday evening,
1 November, following, Mr. Montague and his associates, Messrs.
Charles Ewer, Samuel Gardner Drake, John Wingate Thornton,
and Lemuel Shattuck, met at Mr. Shattuck's residence, 79 Harrison
Avenue, and organized the New England Historic Genealogical
Society, which was incorporated by a special act of the General
Court, 18 March 1845.
The seventy-fifth year of this institution has been, in many ways,
one of the best in its whole history.
During the two and a quarter centuries that elapsed between
the Landing of the Pilgrims and the birth of the Society, very little
interest was manifested in the objects which the Society was
organized to promote. Measured by the genealogical publications
issued in America, the total output up to 1^4 would not fill a three-
foot shelf. Conditions changed with the advent of the new Society.
Interest in 'its objects was soon aroused by its officers, its Ubrary,
and its pubUcations, and this soon manifested itself in the publica-
tion of genealogies and local histories with genealogical registers.
The interest thus awakened steadily increased from year to year
and brought with it, for the Society, serious problems of housing
its library and financing its work.
During the first twenty-five years of its existence the Society
occupied rented quarters and depended on voluntary assistance to
cany on its work. Then it purchased and remodelled a building
which furnished accommodations for its growth for about forty
years. The erection of the present commodious and safe building
in 1912 solved the housing problem for many years to come.
The practical cessation of the World War in November 1918
again inade it feasible to appeal to the public for support, and a
campaign to solve the financier problem was immediately begun.
On 14 November Mr. George Lambert Gould, Treasurer of the
Society, pledged $1000; and on 5 December Mr. James Melville
Hunnewell, a CJouncillor of the Society, pledged $5000. These
pledges have resulted in the creation of two new funds, the George
Lambert Gould Fund and the Robert Cushman Hunnewell Me-
morial Fund. In December 1918 a preliminary committee was
XIV N. E. mSTOBIC GENEALOGICAL 80CIBTT
appointed to consider ways and means, and at the January meeting
of the Council, upon recommendation of that committee, a Speciiu
Conmiittee on Endowment and Members was appointed, to serve
through the two years 1919 and 1920. This committee was selected
largely from the Committees on Ways and Means and on Increase
of Membership, including the heads of both committees, and has
been very active throughout the year. Its work for the year 1820
is already imder way, and it is beUeved that the financial probl^n
of the Society will be permanently settled, through its ^orts, by
the end of the year 1920.
The three-hundredth anniversary of the Landing of the Pilgrims
occurs in 1920. The New England Historic Gen&Eilogicfd Society
proposes that its chief observance of this important occasion shaD
take the form of a substantial increase of its membership and its
endowment funds. It is beUeved that there can be no more fitting
or useful memorial to the Pilgrims than the continued maintenance
of the work of this Society, and this will be assured by the Pilgrim
Tercentenary Memorial Fund, now being raised by the Special
Conm[iittee on Endowment and Members.
The Report of the Committee on Finance, by George Lambert
Gould, Treasurer:
Early in 1919 the Society received from George W. MacWha, Esq.,
executor of the estate of Mrs. Jennie B. Fuller, its proportion of the
residue of her estate, amounting to $1425.09, which, with receipts
of dues from members, enabled the Society to pay to the Boston
Safe Deposit & Trust Company the balance of the floating indebted-
ness which was due and which was incurred at the completion of
the Society's building seven years ago.
During the year the Committee decided to pay off the mortgage
on the front building on Ashburton Place, amounting to $23^000
and interest, which also was held by the Boston Safe Deposit ft
Trust Company. It was enabled to do this because of the success-
ful efforts of the Special Committee on Endowment and Membeis
in securing Pilgrim Tercentenary Members and also by the burgs
increase in the number of Life Members.
On 12 October the Society received the sum of $162.38, bong
the interest for the second year on the legacy of $5,000 from the
estate of Dr. Moses Greeley Parker, in the hands of the Boston
Safe Deposit & Trust Company, Trustee. Members of the Com-
mittee on Finance and of the Council were surprised and disappointed
at the meagre return, especially as the same institution had charged
the Society, on floating and mortgage indebtedness, 6% per annum
until the amounts were paid, as stated above.
The Society will probably receive during the coming year the
sum of $4,000 from the estate of Albert Crane of Stamford, Conn.,
BEP0RT8 OF COIOOTTEBB XV
be added to the Thomas Crane Fund, which was created several
UB ago by Mr. Crane in memory of his father, Thomas Crane.
le income of this legacy is to be applied ''first to the binding and
Bservation of the pamphlets of the Society, and secondly to Hie
neral purposes of the Society.'' The Society is also named in
r. Crane's wiU, as one of the residuary l^atees, for a larger sum,
^yable on the death of the principal beneficiary.
Tbe Conmiittee reports, with much gratification, the receipt of
nited States bonds and other donations from Society members
id also the increased returns from membership dues, including
tinly those from the new Pilgrim Tercentenary class, details of
hidi will be given by other committees.
While the amounts thus received are comparatively large, still
ke needs of the Society are very large, and much more will be
xjoired before the institution wiU be on a self-supporting basis.
Hie net sums received have been closely and carefully invested
{ accordance with votes of the Council, so that the net returns
Q money invested will be very much larger proportionately than
hat is received on securities bought years ago.
be Report of the CoBiMiTTEE on Wats and Means, by William
Streeter Richardson, Chairman:
The Conmiittee takes pleasure in reporting that the recommenda-
on referred to in its annual report for 1918 as to the adoption of
ew methods has been vigorously followed, and that it has resulted
I a material measure of success.
Not only has the course pursued produced inmiediate substantial
mSf but the work already done affords strong encouragement
lat its continuance during the next year or two on the same lines
in yield equally good results. It is true that the efforts of the
bmmittee must not be in any way relaxed, but it seems that a
irther improvement in the financial condition of the Society may
e confidently expected.

Mrs. Florence Reynolds Conant Howes, Chairman:
Ab the field of work of the Committee on Increase of Member-
iq> was effectively and comprehensively covered during the past
ear by the Special Committee on Endowment and Members, no
leeting of the Committee has been held.

returns and net revenue from this source are very satisfactory.

The Report of the CioiaaTTEE on Pubugations, by James Pari
Pannenter, A.M., LKB., Chairman:
The Committee on Publications reports that on 14 January 19]
acting under authority conferred on it by the Coimcil on 6 Noveml
1918, it voted that the title-pages and indexes of the Regibti
hitherto printed in the October number of each year, should he]
after appear with the January number of the foUowing year. A
cordingly the title-pages and indexes for Volume 73 (1919) n
be sent out as a supplement to the Registub for January 19!
in such form that they can be boimd as usual with the quartet
numbers of the volume to which they belong.
Letters and circulars asking for subscriptions to enable the Socie
to continue the publication of the Vital Records of Massachuset
towns prior to 1850, which was suspended after the repeal of tl
Vital Records Act of 1902 by the Massachusetts General Cou
of 1918, were sent out by the Committee in the spring of 1919 i
the public libraries of Massachusetts and to the lea^ng libraii
and historical societies throughout the United States. Favorab
responses have been received from many of these institutions, an
the Coimcil has authorized the Committee on Publications 1
proceed as soon as possible with the publication of the Vital Reoord
of Plympton and of Nantucket. It is hoped that additional sol
scriptions will enable the Society to publish other volumes an
eventually to complete this important series of printed \^tal Record

be Report of the Committee on Hebaldbt, by Robert Dickson
Weston, A.B., Chairman:
Tlie Committee on Heraldry has little to report. During the
ar ibe thoughts of men were concentrated on the conflict, to the
dusion of less important subjects. The return to normal con-
IJons, so far as an interest in heraldry is concerned, is slow. But
ED8 of reviving interest are perceived, and the Committee antici-
ites that for it the coming year will be one of much greater activity.
A room, furnished with bookshelves, desks, and chairs, has been
!ovided for the Conmiittee, on the street floor of the Society's
aiding, and there selected works on heraldry, representations of
latfl of arms, and the archives of the Committee have been placed.
be Report of the CoMMriTEE on the Libbabt, by Mrs. Mary
Btickney Randall, Secretary:
The Committee on the Library has met regularly each month
iroughout the year, with the exception of the sunmier months,
r tJ^ transaction of such routine business as comes within its
ludiction, and has also attended to special matters which have
ien referred to the Conmiittee.
During the seven years in which the Society has occupied the pres-
it builcSng, only absofutely necessary repairs to the building have
en made. The building now is greatly in need of having its walls,
ilingB, and woodwork thoroughly cleaned and renovated. This
ould be done before the seventy-fifth anniversary of the incor-
»ration of the Society, which is to be celebrated in March 1920.
The most pressing need of the Society at the present time is a
mplete and comprehensive guide to genealogical data in print
relation to American famiUes. It is now several years since the
it issue of the Durrie-Munsell series of Indexes was published,
d the later issues of these Indexes are very incomplete. Such a
at amount of genealogical information has been published since
ese Indexes were issu^ that it is extremely desirable and nec-
niy that new and improved indexes be compiled which will make
18 information available, and which will eliminate the waste of
ne on the part of the searcher and unnecessary expense on the
ill cS the Society in handling and consulting many books not useful
each particular search.
Some years ago the Librarian and his staff devised an index card,
I which the amount of data, the period of time covered, and the
ographical location of the families indexed are shown briefly, thus
flUing the r^er to choose only such books as would be useful
him. A sufficient beginning of the index was made at that time
prove that the idea was practical, but important problems of
usmg the Society's collection and financing its work made it
XVm N. E. mSTOBIG GENEALOGICAL 80CIETT
•
necessary to suspend this indexing. The Committee reoonmiends that
work on this index be resumed as soon as fimds can be obtained for
it, and that plans be made for bringing and keeping it up to date.
When the new building was erected in 1912, the fireproof vault
was equipped with temporary wooden shelves, constructed from
lumber brought from the old building, as it was thought inexpedient
at that time to go to the expense of putting in metal stacks. These
temporary wooden shelves have now been used for seven years aiKl
are far from satisfactory. The Committee recommends that modem
steel bookstacks be erected in the vault at an early date.
Through fimds given and bequeathed by the late Albert Crane
of Stamford, Conn., a substantial binding fund will eventually be
created. Until the whole amoimt is available, however, more monej
will be needed for binding.
The Report of the Committee on EprrAPHS, by Myles Standish,
A.M., M.D., S.D., Chairman:
The Committee on Epitaphs held no meeting in the year 19191
It notes, however, with satisfaction, that from time to time nev '
collections of inscriptions from New England burial grounds an
sent to the Register for pubUcation, and that occasionally space
is foimd in the Register for the printing of some of the typewritttt
or manuscript collections in the possession of the Library.

Five of the lectures were illustrated with stereopticon slideB, and
all were followed by refreshments.
Many of the speakers gave their services without com]
and several members of the Society contributed toward
expenses; therefore the Committee has not been obliged, in ifA
of the advance in prices, to use the full amount ($250) of the aiqpio*!!
priation granted by the Coimcil. ]
REP0BT8 OF COMMITTEES XIX
le Beport of the Special Committee on Endot^ment and Mem-
BKB8, by William Prescott Greenlaw, Chairman:
nik Committee was appointed 2 January 1919 to serve throi^h
d two years 1919 and 1920, for the purpose of conducting an active
inpaign for money to pay off the Society's indebtedness, to obtain
amboB, and to secure special endowment funds. Four of its
ten members had served on a committee appointed 4 December
il8 to consider wajrs and means of raising money for these purposes.
Tlie earlier committee recommended that the dues of Resident
Aiibers be increased from five to ten dollars; that the Life Member-
i^ fee be increased from fifty to one himdred dollars; and that pro-
■on be made as soon as possible, by an addition to the By-Laws
the Society, for a new class of members, to consist of those persons
bo pay three himdred dollars at one time into a special endow-
enl fund to commemorate the seventy-fifth anniversary of the
eorporation of the Society and the three-hundredth anniversary of
le Landing of the Pilgrims, both of which occur in 1920, these
tmbers to have aU the privileges of Life Members, together with
m li^t of transmitting the membership in perpetuity by will or
littan notice to the Society.
At the annual meeting of the Society, 5 February 1919, the By-
mrs were amended in accordance with the Conmiittee's recommen-
itions. The members of this new class were designated Pilgrim
eroentenary Members and limited to those who qualified before
January 1921.
The committee appointed in December began a canvass of the
eflident Membership, inviting the members to change to Life
Eembership, and this resulted in seeming about one thousand dollars
iring the month. It also secured the promise of two donations,
hieh materiaUzed later, and amounted to six thousand dollars,
be Special Committee . completed this canvass for Life Members
ntiie months of January and February, securing a little over
ousand dollars more from this source. One hundred and
iriy-five Resident Members were transferred to Life Membership
the three months. The Treasurer's records show that the pay-
ants of tiiese members in annual dues and Life Membership fees
nmgjed almost ninety-five dollars each, an amount only five dollars
m than the present Life Membership fee.
The Special Committee, during the early part of the year, issued
fanited number of engraved invitations seeking the creation of
memorial endowment funds; and in two instances the chair-
has been advised of wills having been executed by which the
oety will eventually benefit.
Tlie main work of the year, however, has been the canvass for
Ignm Tercentenary Members. The Committee, with the co-
pntion of several gentlemen of international reputation in various
■10, has sent out engraved invitations to a number of persons
^ it was believed, would be interested in the work of the Society
i woald be wUling to contribute a Pilgrim Tercentenary Member-
1p lee for the support of its work in the futiu^. The results of
this part of the Comimttee's midertakiog have been very ftirfaftnry*
Over three handred pefBons have accepted the invitatioo.
Throo^ the endeav<»8 of this Committee a greater amoimt of
money has been received by the Treasurer than in aiqr p ref vi o uB jof
ol the Sodetjr's history, amounting to moie than one hmfedred tooi!*
sand doDars; and the number cl members secured is moie tha
double the record ot the best previous year.
The Committee expects to continue this work and also to canvM
for Life and Resident Members throug^iout the jrear 1920. It ii
also planning to make appeals for money for qiedal parposes, to
take care <rf preseing needs, such as additional equipment, iqpkeq^
cataloguing, and binding.
The success so far achieved and the outlook for 1920 warrant the
belief that the Society will be able to continue its liberal policjcf
maintaining a free library, where all interested can sedc inf ormatiat
about the Pilgrims, their neighbors of the Ammcan Ccdcmies, their
successors of later immigrations, and thdr desc^idants. As ahnort
the entire patriotic-society movement in this country is based iqNi
the interest in family history awakened and stimulated by tUi
Society during its seventy-five years of ezistenoe, the value d
maintaining its work can scarcely be overestimated.
REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN
Presented by Wujjam Pksscott Greenlaw '
The total accessions for the year 1919 nimiber 794 vofaimeii
473 pamphlets, and 49 miscellaneous articles. Of these, 265 vohDanB|
and 100 pamphlets were purchased; 179 volumes, 371 pampbUtl
and 49 miscellaneous articles were given; 55 volumes and 2 pUUk
phlets were received in exchange; and 295 volumes were leutPll
on deposit. Two hundred and three genealogies were aoquiNK
during the year. ^
As predicted in the report of the Council last year, a rkiciidii
increase in the use of the Library has taken place; the yiatUm
Register for the year shows twenty-eight per cent more
than in 1918, and the record of use by members and viaitoTB
bined shows a twenty per cent increase. In 1920 it is
that the Pilgrim Tercentenary will arouse considerable ini
in family history and cause a greater demand for informatioil M
the Library. ^
The Librarian has devoted the larger part of his time since Wt
signing of the armistice in November 1918 to the task of Miimiiijl
endowment funds to carry on the work of the Society in the ful— i l
and this work will require a part of his services tbrou^ the ]
1920. Because of this, it has been necessary to add another

1918. On her father's side she was descended from Elder \^/llliam

bom in England, the daughter of Henry and Jane (Morgan) Smith.
Mrs. Hills's life was uneventful. Her charities, which were many,
were bestowed quietly and imostentatiously. She had a special
interest in the New England Historic Genealogical Society, largely
on account of her husband's deep interest in all that pertained to
genealogy, and she was a contributor to its building fimd in 1912.
She was a member also of the Society of Daughters of the Revolu-
tion, by reason of her descent from Sergeant Job Drew.

the labors of the late William Sanford Hills of B^ton. A memoir
of TlK>mas Hills may be found in the Register, vol. 65, page bd.
1919
Franklin Pierce Rice of Worcester, Mass., a life member
since 1903, was bom at Marlborough, Mass., 29 July 1852, the son
of Minot and Mary Berry (Felton) Rice, and di^ at Worcester
3 January 1919. He was a descendant of Edmund^ Rice of Sud-
biuy, Mass., through Joseph,' Caleb,' Jabez,^ Jabez,^ Abel,* and
Minot,^ his father. Among his ancestors in other lines were Rev.
Samud Skelton, the first minister at Salem, Mass., and Nathaniel
Fdton of Salem.
He. received his elementary education from his mother, and did
not enter a public school until he was eleven years old. Even after
that time his attendance at public schools was not umntemipted.
When a young man he intended to enter the medical profession, and
began the study of chemistry, anatomy, and ph3rsiology; but ad-
verse circumstances prevented the realization of this plan, and he
turned his attention to writing historical and biographical sketches
and to editing, printing, and publishing the records of Massachusetts
towns, especially those in Worcester County.
In 1871 he had purchased a small printing press, which he ex-
changed within a few months for a better one. A few years later,
in 1880, he bought a Columbia, press, and used it for more than
thirty years. As a printer he was self-educated, and did not learn
the trade by working for any regular printer. By himself and on
his own pi^ he began the task of preserving in print the vital rec-
ords of Worcester County towns.
Many records were printed by Mr. Rice on his own press. Many
others, including the Worcester town records, which he edited, were
published by the Worcester Society of Antiquity, of which he was
Xlii N. E. mSTOBIC QENEALOOICAL SOGISTT
one of the four founders. But his greatest service as a publishei
of vital records was rendered under the provisions of the Vital
Records Act approved by the Governor of Massachusetts in 1902,
in accordance with which the Commonwealth undertook to pur-
chase, at a fixed rate per page, five hundied copies of ibe printed
vital records of each Massachusetts town prior to 1850, provided
that the books were compiled and published in the manner required
by certain State officials and that not more than $15,000 was spent
for this purpose in any one year. The New Eln^and Historic Gcaiea-
logical Society, to whose representations the passage of the Vital
Records Act of 1902 was chiefly due, entered the field inmiediatdy as a
publisher of vital records, and Mr. Rice, as trustee of the Systeniatie
History Fund, together with the Essex Institute, the Topsfield Histori-
cal Society, and, later, Mr. Thomas W. Baldwin, joined in the woA.
From 1902 imtil the repeal of the Act in 1918, a period of more thtn
sixteen years, 169 different volumes, containing the vital recoids
prior to 1850 of 149 Massachusetts towns and a part oi the vital
records of two other towns, were delivered to the Secretary (rf the
Ck)mmonwealth and distributed by him without charge to the pvi£c
offices, Ubraries, and historical societies entitled under the provisioDS
of the Act to receive them. Mr. Rice's part in this important work
consisted in compiling and publishing the vital records of more than
thirty towns in Worcester CJounty, the last volumes contributed by
him to this series of vital records appearing in 1911. Besides his
painstaking work in compiling and publishing town records Mr.
Rice was a contributor on his favorite antiquarian themes to news-
papers and encyclopsedias, and was the author also of ''Reminiscenoes
of Rev. George Allen," "Life of Eli Thayer," and other works.
In addition to his connection with the Systematic History Fond
and with the Worcester Society of Antiquity, Mr. Rice was a nwm-
ber of the American Antiquarian Society, the Colonial Society of
Massachusetts, the Worcester Natural History Society, of which
he was a director from 1894 to 1909, and the Bunker HiU Monu-
ment Association, and was a corresponding member of several other
historical societies.
Mr. Rice never married. His home Ufe was centred around his
mother. At the annual meeting of the Colonial Society of Massa-
chusetts, in 1919, the following tribute was paid to his memory:
'Tranklin Pierce Rice, an enthusiast by nature in the local histoiy apd
antiquities of his surroundings, whose timely solicitude and peraomd in-
dustry have rescued many a valuable town record from oblivion, sod
whose chief claim to his reputation for eccentricity consisted in an unusual
diligence in the work he loved and a life-long devotion to his mother."
Edward Adams Richardson of Ayer, Mass., a resident member
since 1914, was bom in that part of Groton which is now Ayer
24 November 1859, the son of Joseph H. and Mary A. (HartweD)
Richardson, and died at Ayer 4 January 1919. He traced his paternal
line from Ezekiel Richardson, who was at Charlestown, Masa.,
in 1630, and helped in the founding of Wobum, while on his mother's
side he was descended from WiUiam Hartwell of Concord^ William
MEM0IB8 Xliii
Shattuck of Watertown, John Whitney, and ancestors belonging
to other well-known early New England families.
He attended the Groton pubUc schools, was graduated at Law-
rence Academy in 1875, and then entered Yale College, but after
three years he was obUged to leave college on account of illness in
his family. Later he entered the law office of the late Judge Clark
A. Batchelder at Ayer. Soon afterwards he became ticket agent at
the local railroad station, and held this position for about five
years. In September 1887 he moved to Shirley, Mass., to operate
a cotton mill of which he was the owner. During his residence in
Shirley he became interested in pubUc afifairs and was elected a
adectman of the town. He returned to Ayer in 1891, although he
retained his business in Shirley for some time longer. After his
return to Ayer Mr. Richardson devoted his time to various busi-
ness and manufactiuing interests, to the development of his large
real-estate holdings, to pubUc affairs, and to Uterary and historic^
work. He was clerk of the Union Furniture Company and the
Merrill-James Shoe Company, a trustee of the North Middlesex
Savings Bank, and president of the Ayer Board of Trade. He was
largely instrumental in establishing Camp Devens at Ayer, and helped
in securing leases of the land for the United States Government.
Mr. Kichfudson always manifested a deep interest in public
matters and took a prominent part in town affairs. For the four
yeaiB following 2 April 1906 he was a selectman of Ayer. He was
ehoeen a member of the School Committee in 1913 and a trustee of
ibe Ayer Library the same year, holding both offices up to the time
of his death. He was a delegate to the State Constitutiofial Con-
vention from the Twelfth Middlesex District in 1917-18. In politics
he was a Republican, and had given long and faithful service on
the Ayer Republican town committee. He was a member of the
Masonic fraternity and that of the Odd Fellows, and was prom-
inent in the work of both organizations.
He was a man of culture, with a love for travel, art, and hterature.
Much of his leisure time was devoted to historical research, and
he was the author of many articles on local history and also of
two books, "Moors School" and "The Conrniunity," both dealing
with Groton local history, which were published in 1911. His last
work, completed only a few days before his death, was the com-
mling of a list of Ayer men in the military and naval service in the
World War. He was a member of the Groton Historical Society.
He married, 24 November 1885, Clara E. Page, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Alfred Page of Ayer, who survives hun, together with
two sons, Alfred P. and Ralph H. Richardson.

piled by J. Gardner Bartlett and published recently by the Stone
Family Association the ancestral line in En|^d of Dea. Gregory
Stone has been proved for several generations. Mr. Stcme was

line had been represented in every American war from the time of
the "First Encoimter" of the PUgrims with the Indians in 1620
down through the Civil War. While on his business trips he oftn
devoted leisure time to collecting family records, and he made es-
tensive investigations which showed that the blood of Dea. Gregoiy
Stone flowed in the veins of nearly one-half of Captain ParkBr'l
band of sixty men who fired the first shots on Lexington Common,
on the morning of 19 April 1775. In 1910 he published a brief
genealogy of his own line of the Stone family, which had perpetu-

JULY, 1920
MAJ. HENRY LEE HIGGINSON, A.M., LL.D.
By Thornton Kirki«and Lothrop, Jr., A.B., of Boston, Mass.
Ienbt Lee Higginson, although he held no public office, has
many years been referred to as the first citizen of Boston. In
deaUi, 14 November 1919, the community suffered a great
, as well as Harvard University and the Boston Symphony
hestra and all the other thin^ in which he was interested. The
? England Historic Genealogical Society was very fortimate in
lining him as one of the early members of the Pilgrim Tercen-
tfy movement, which began last year and is still going on, and
in getting his firm, Lee, Higginson & Company, to act as deposi-
' for the fund thus raised. It especially mourns his loss, before
membership was completed and just before the year which
memorates the landing of the Pilgrims at Plymouth, three
dred years ago, had begun.*
[ajor Higginson was a man of action rather than of words, and
, quite as much as the ever present scar received in action during
Civil War, was the reason why he was so constantly referred to
bis militaiy title, which he gained through service in the Vol-
)er Army of the United States during that momentous conflict.
Ithough I have referred to him as a man of action, I must not be
mderstood as meaning that he was a man of action only. He
a great intellect and a large heart as well as a powerful memory,
iiras noticeable for having ideals and cherishing them, and bringing
a with his ripening years to a full fruition. He could see ahead
rly, plan in great detail, and had a fortimate use of words to
ain both what he thought of value in the past and what he had
med for the future.
e was bom in New York City 18 November 1834, the son of
rge and Mary Cabot (Lee) Higginson. His parents were, how-
, of New England stock, and shortly after his birth they returned
k)eton, where he was brought up, and where he spent most of
ife. Besides the Higginsons he was descended from the Jack-
, Lees, Cabots, and other prominent families. It would be going
jor Hiscinaon's •ueoesaor in hit Pilgrim TeroentenAry membenhip in the New Englftnd
ie Oeoealofical Society im his widow, Mn. Ida AsMsis Higgineon. — Editor.

164 Henry Lee Higginson [July
beyond the scope of this article to go into a detailed examination of
the characteristics of these various families and determine how much
each affected Major Higginson's thoughts and actions at the vari-
ous phases of his career. Suffice it to say that, just as the many
intermarriages of the Cabots, for instance, with the Sewalls, and
Lowells, and Eliots, and other families, have had an effect on. various
members and branches of the Cabot family and fitted them more
for judicial, legislative, and administrative service, whilst at the
same time they continued to retain their pronounced Cabotic char-
acteristics of easy excellence in whatever they did and constant
ability to keep on doing something all the time, so the Higginsons
have shown all along the pronounced characteristics of having ideas
and thoughts of their own, ability to express them well, courage
to do so publicly under all circumstances, and a certain strei^gth of
purpose to cling to them imtil they were fulfilled. These character-
istics Major Higginson had to a marked degree, and they were un-
doubtedly helped, both in the directions they took and in the suc-
cess he o*btained in carr3dng them out, by the characters of the
other New England f amiUes from whom he was descended and with
whom he largely associated.
Major Higginson was descended from Rev. Francis Higginsoii,
who was bom in England in 1588 and graduated at Cambridge
University. He had ideas of his own and therefore was obliged to
leave England, and he arrived in New England on the TcSboi in
1629. He settled in Salem, and died there in August of the follow-
ing year, 1630. His son John was bom in Ehigland in 1616, and came
over with his father. He was more or less in other parts of New
England, but spent most of his life in Salem, where he died 9 De-
cember 1708. The family continued largely in Salem during the
Colonial period. Stephen Higginson was bom there 28 November
1743, but later moved to Boston, and died in Boston 22 November
1828. One grandson of his was Thomas Wentworth Higginson,
noted for his opposition to the extension and continuation^siavefy
in the United States, which he "was able to help, in aboUshing by
active military service in the Federal Army during the Civil War,
and noted afterwards as an historian.
Another grandson of this Stephen Higginson was Geoiige Kg-
ginson, who married Mary Cabot Lee and moved to New Yofk,
where Henry Lee Higginson was bom. His older brother was named
George after his father, and his two younger brothers were named
James Jackson and Francis Lee. His only sister was Mary, who
married Mr. S. Parkman Blake. George, the father, shortly re-
turned to Boston, where Henry Lee Higginson was brought up,
attended the Boston Latin School, and entered Harvard College in
1851. He only stayed at Harvard a scant year, as trouble wim his
eyes made it impossible to continue there longer; but during that
year, as well as during the previous years at the Latin School, be
formed many friendships which, lasted through the rest of his life
and affected it to a certain degree. It was here that he showed
athletic prowess on the football field, in those days more Uke the
Bloody Monday rush of later years than the organized game xiow
1020] Henry Lee Htgginsan 165
called football. Athletic ability and muscular strength were always
^th him, although hampered of course by the severe wounds which
lie suffered in the Civil War. In later years he was, like Gladstone,
veiy fond of taking his exercise in cutting down trees, and near
his eightieth birthday I have known him to go to New Haven in
a day coach and walk to the Yale football field, and return the
same way.
After leaving Harvard College Mr. Higginson took a short trip
abroad, and when he returned continued his education in a duller
way, by filling a place at Samuel and Edward Austin's counting-
house. Here he stayed a year and a half or a little more, and tlien
went abroad once more with several of his best friends. They re-
tailed, but he stayed on the other side to study music. This, the
matefft pleasure of his life, he pursued for three years, mostly in
Vienna, and with some of the most famous teachers; but his eyes
Eve out again, this time more seriously, and in November 1860
I returned to Boston. He stated then that he would be glad to
live in Boston, if he could only find something to doj and very
ah(^y there was plenty for him to do. In March 1861 Abraham
lincom was inaugurated as President of the United States, and in
i4>ril Fort Sumter was fired on and the Civil War had begun.
Full of enthusiasm and animated with a strong sense of duty
both to his country and to the antislavery cause, Mr. EUgginson
was among the first to volunteer. He helped Col. (then Capt.) James
Savage recruit Co. D, in the Second Regiment of Massachusetts
Volunteers, and on 21 May 1861 was conmiissioned second lieu-
tenant and on 8 July first lieutenant with the same company. The
legiment after a while was sent to the front, reporting to General
Patterson at Martinsburg, Va. He did not stay with it long, how-
eveTi but was sent North for more recruiting and driUing, although
in a slightly different line. About 1 November 1861 he was com-
miSBioned captain in the First Regiment of Massachusetts Volunteer
CSavalry. It was first stationed at Readville, Mass., but later was
lent to Maryland, South Carolina, and then Virginia, remaining
ill the while with the Army of the Potomac. On 28 March 1862
lie was commissioned major and given active charge of a battalion
in this regiment. On 17 June 1863, at the Battle of Aldie, in Vir-
ginia, he was severely wounded in three or more places. The effects
of these woimds he bore through life, and it is wonderful how much
he accomplished in despite of them. For a detailed account of the
action as affecting Major Higginson I refer the reader to Mr. J. T.
Morse, Jr's., adnurable article in The Harvard GradiuUea* Magazine
for March 1920.
Item Aldie Major Higginson was sent to stations and hospitals
until he finally reached Washington and then Boston. Recovery
was very slow, but it had its advantages, as it was then that he
married Miss Ida Agassiz. She was a daughter of Professor Louis
Agaagjg and a sister of Mrs. Quincy A. Shaw and of Alexander Agassiz.
She was a constant help and encouragement to him throu^ life,
and gave him an additional group of relatives and friends, who in-
creased his already wide horizon. Despite this he was itching to get
166 Henry Lee Higginson [July
back to the army, and in July 1864 he obtamed a new position as
aide on General Barlow's stafif. The work was too severe for|thim,
however, and he then tried to get emplojrment in the Reserve Corps.
Failing in this, he was honorably discharged in September 1864.
In January 1865 Major Higginson started in civil life once more.
After experimenting with the agency of an oil company in Ohio
and, with his friend and companion soldier. Col. Charles F. Morse,
and others, in the sea-island cotton business in Georgia, he found a
place waiting for him at home with Lee, Higginson & Company,
where he stayed the rest of his life. They already had a good busi-
ness, and it grew rapidly after he became a partner. Copper mines,
western railroads, and other industries of this growing coimtry,
in which he and his relatives had interests, blossomed marvellously
as the result of their practical energy, and the business of the firm
grew with them.
Soon Major Higginson decided that he could well devote his
time and money to something else besides his business, and in 1881
he started the Boston Symphony Orchestra. This put the best
music before the music lovers of Greater Boston for more than half
the year, and let the inhabitants of many other cities know some ci
the advantages of Uving here. He paid all the losses, calculated
at nine hundred thousand dollars by 1912 and at about a miUion
and a quarter dollars in all. He imdoubtedly paid many oUmbt
things which never got on the books at all. He also gave mudi
time and thought to the orchestra, and made no end of trips to
Europe to get the best conductors and musicians. His control and
influence over the men were remarkable, and he never aUowed
them to join any musicians' imion or other organization of that kind
which might prevent the emplo3rment of the best talent available.
When the United States entered the World War the conductor wss
arrested as a spy and imprisoned for the rest of the War, and this
was a very sad blow to Major Higginson.
His connection with Harvard College was the only other thing
as strong as his love for his orchestra. His only degree there wtf
the honorary degree of Master of Arts in 1882, although he reodved
the degree of Doctor of Laws from Yale in 1001 and from IT^^lliaini
in 1912. But he served as a member of the Corporation of Harvard
College for twentynsix years, from the time of his appointmoii
in 1893 until the day of his death. President Mot has stated that
during all those years he was noted for the ''utmost punctuaUty,
assiduity, devotion, and high intelligence," and President Lowril
has confirmed this opinion. He was recognized the world over among
Harvard men for two great gifts to the University, Soldiers Field
in 1890 and the Harvard Union in 1899. To these might be added a
third, not thought of so much, perhaps, but almost equally appreci-
ated, the playing of the S3rmphony Orchestra, ever since its founda-
tion, in Sanders Theatre.
Henry Lee Higginson is gone, and as a patriot, soldier, dtiieii,
and Harvard man there is no one at present to take his place.

Gifpord-Sargent
Contributed by G. Andrews Moriarty, Jr., A.M., LL.B., of Newport, R. I.,
and communicated by the Committee on English Researcn
It is not often that the Committee on English Research is able
to present an ancestral line of a New England immigrant that
reaches back into the early Middle Ages, and consequently it is
with great pleasm-e that it communicates to the Register records
proving the descent of Margaret Giflford, wife of Hugh Sargent
of Courteenhall, co. Northampton, and grandmother of William
Sargent, one of the early settlers of Maiden, Mass., from John
Gi£ford le Boef of Twyford, co. Bucks, in 1277. The records will
be followed by a pedigree, in which the facts derived from them
and from various authorities will be set forth in the usual genealogi-
cal form.

SAMUEL ABBOTT GREEN, A.M., M.D., LL.D.
•. Ain>BBW8 MoRiABTT, Jb., A. M., LL. B., of Newport, R. I.
ieath of Dr. Samuel Abbott Green, which occurred in Bos-
ember 1918, the New Ekigland Historic Genealogical Soci-
3 oldest active member, as indicated by duration of mem-
>r he was elected a resident member of the Society 2 June
i¥a8 transferred to life membership in 1870.
\i his father's and his mother's side Dr. Green descended
Massachusetts stock. His immigrant ancestors of the
lily, Percival^ and EUen Green, came to New England in
and EUen in 1635, each aged thirty-two years, and settled
idge. Their son, John* Green of Cambridge, who was
ne 1636 and died 3 March 1690/1, married Ruth, daughter
i Mitchelson, marshal general of the Colony, and suc-
s father-in-law in this oflBce. John Green's son, Rev.

ind married Hannah, daughter of Ebenezer Storer. He,
i merchant, and in later Me removed to Wendell, Mass.,
of his only son, where he died 25 Jidy 1806. This only

U, and was a judge of the County Court. His first wife
', daughter of David Moseley of Westfield, Mass. Their

n 1821, and settled in 1825 at Groton, Mass., where he had
in 1824, Eliza Lawrence, daughter of Maj. Samuel and
Parker) of Groton. He was elected a corresponding mem-
New England Historic Genealogical Society 11 July 1849,
16
244 Samud Abbott Green [Oct
and died at Monistown, N. J., at the home of his daughter, 6 June
1875. In Groton, on 16 March 1830, Samuel Abbott* Green, fourth
son of Dr. Joshua and Eliza (Lawrence), was bom.
His early boyhood was passed in his native town, for which he
retained until his death a most devoted affection, showing con-
stantly in a multitude of ways his love for the little New "Rnel^M*
hill town where he was accustomed to spend his sununers. He
became its faithful historian and a muniiScent benefactor of its
institutions. He was prepared for college at the Lawrence Acadeoqr
in Groton, entered Harvard in 1847, was graduated there with the
Class of 1851, and received the degrees of Master of Arts and Doc-
tor of Medicine from the same institution in 1854. He condnued
his professional studies in Paris, and, after spending four yean
abroad, began the practice of medicine in Boston.
Already in May 1858 Dr. Green had become surgeon in the Sec-
ond Regiment of the Massachusetts Militia, and at the commence-
ment of the Civil War he was one of the first to offer his serviceem
behalf of his country. On 25 May 1861 he was conmiissioDed ic-
sistant surgeon of the First Massachusetts Volunteers. Lot Sq>teoi-
ber of that year he was promoted to be siu*geon of the TmntT"
fourth Massachusetts Volunteers, and at intervals, up to Noveni-
ber 1864, he served on the staffs of Generals Stevenson, Feeler,
Hawley, Terry, and Eautz. At the time of the Bumside expeditkm
against Roanoke Island he was in charge of the hospital diip BecnA,
in the spring of 1863 he had charge of the hospitsJi steamer Ccmt
politarif on the coast of South Carolina, and during the siege of Fort
Wagner he was chief medical officer at Morris Idand. In Octote
1863 he was sent to Florida, and for six months was post suigeonit
St. Augustine and Jacksonville. Later he was with Gen^ul Butfar
at Bermuda Hundred. He was brevetted lieutenant colonel of Vol*
unteers for gallant and distinguished services in the field during tha
campaign of 1864. From April to July 1865 he was acting stif
surgeon at Richmond, Va., and on 8 July 1865 he resigned frun the
service.
Upon the close of the War he returned to Boston and engaged oooi
more in the practice of his profession, but public life had a gnit
attraction for him and he gave prodigally of his time and eneiBriB
behalf of the public welfare. For seven years he was superintcBd-
ent of the Boston Dispensary and for nine years a member of the Boi'
ton School Conunittee. From 1868 to 1878 he was a trustee of tti
Boston Public Library, and served for one year as acting libnuaia
From 1871 to 1881 he was city physician, and in 1882 Us ^iIcimImI
public spitit and ability were rewarded by his fellow dtisenfli iHmi
chose bim mayor of Boston, at a time when such office was a oo^
eted honor.* From 1869 to 1880, and again from 1882 to 1900, hi
was an overseer of Harvard University. He also served on At
State Board of Health, Lunacy, and Charity. In 1896 the UIlive^
sity of Nashville conferred on him the honorary d^;ree of Doctor of
Laws.
Dr. Green never married. As a physician he was unwearied in bii
labor and in his devotion to his noble profession, and his heea k>Te

' buman nature and his sympathy for all mankind brought him
oaety into touch with all sorts and conditions of people, who deeply
terested him. With his broad sympathies and democratic tastes
I came to know all kinds of people, and his love for them was re-
vded by their love for him. Indeed, the most characteristic
bm about Dr. Green were his wide sympathies, his broad vision,
id nis great fund of true kindness, which, although often hidden
ider a gruffness of manner, any reader of character could not fail
popeive and love. It was this himian quality, this interest in all
mkind, its struggles and aspirations, which made him truly acf-
ired and beloved by all who understood him.
Perhaps the most outstanding feature of his life was his love of
rly New England history and especially of his native town of Grot-
, the Ck)lonial history of which was enriched by numerous histor-
i monographs from his pen, compiled with that painstaking accu-
7* that denoted a labor of love. He was librarian of the Massa-
UMtts Historical Society from 1868 until his death, and his later
Bra were given exclusively to his work there. During these years
was the principal figure at the Society's rooms, where he ruled
a beneficent despot, and his picturesque and kindly personality
rmeated the entire atmosphere of that institution.
Idy personal acquaintance with Dr. Green dated from the last years
his me, when, aiter I had returned from a protracted stay abroad,
r common interest in historical and genealogical matters drew us
gjether. I discovered that in his youth Dr. Green had studied
der my grandfather, the late Dr. John Moseley Moriarty, then
it physician of Boston, and kindly recollections of my grand-
bher served me in good stead in winning my way into his good
loes. I shall never forget going to call upon him at the building
the Massachusetts Historical Society one day in the early spring
d finding him enthroned in state in his library. The Doctor's
esight was somewhat impaired and he did not know me; conse-
lently my reception was somewhat gruff and a little forbidding.
len Suddenly he knew me. I shall never forget the change that
seed over his face. It was like passing from an impending storm
to full simshine. ''Come right here and sit down," he cried, and
esently he had his whole staff running about to imearth his vari-
B monographs upon Groton, all of which he presented to me with
I autograph, and we passed the entire afternoon delightfully dis-
BBing the early Colonial days. This little incident, I have always
tf was typical of his character — ^the external gruffness towards
Bngers, the keen hmnan sympathy imdemeath, and the quick
iponse to one who understood him. He is gone; and I always
e to remember him as he was that afternoon, ruling over his Ubrary
th a firm but kindly hand, and with a heart glowing with fine
inanities and vital hiunan interest.

John Brown's command against Ticonderoga and Diamond Island
in Sept. 1777 and also the text of two letters from Colonel Biownto
General Lincoln describing his attack on these posts. Other letters
relating to this expedition from Colonel Brown to General Lincoln

Brown have been for several years in the possession of the contrib-
utor of the present article, who is a great-great-grandson of Colond
Brown, and they are given below, together with the text of the two

Success you may have had. The Number of Prisoners taken at these sev-

7 Lieut. 2 Ensigns. 1 Commissary. Non Conmiissioned officers 1 G^tle-

above the falls including 17 Gun Boats, & 1 armed Sloop. Our loss of
Men in these several Actions is not more than 3 or 4 killed & 5 wounded
the Enemys Loss is less still. I have taken Arms perhaps^ equal to the
Number of Prisoners^ & some Cannon & Ammunition. Your spirited Ex-

Service to you on the other side. I am not without hope of those places being
speedily in our possesion. If Recruits should not come in to the Enemy
soon, I think there is some probability of so aj^eeable an Event. I am in-
formed by an officer of ours retaken that a Rmforcemnt from Canada are

in front and the other Boats, I ordered to wing to the Eight and left of

b case they should need assistance, I was induced to make this experiment
to find the strength of the Island as also to carry it if practicable — the enemy
gave me the first fire which I returned in good earnest, and advanced as
nifjn as I thought prudent, I soon found that the enemy had been adver-

number of cannon well moimted with good Breast Works, I however ap-
proached within a small Distance giving the Enemy as hot a fire as in my
Power, untill the sloop was hulled between wind and Water and obliged to
toe her off and one of the boats so damaged as I was obliged to quit ner in

Dear General
Permit me to present you the Continental Standard retaken at Tioonderogi
on the 18th Ult. Please to Present my Compliments to those Gentlona
who in their hurry slipt off and forgot them,---hope never to have the like
Occasion to present Them or your Honour with our own Colours; ShoaU
have done myself the honour to make this Presentation in Person when I
had the honour of waiting on You^ but conceived the Colours to have be-
longed to an armed Vessel until this Minute when upon Opening them fnd
they are the Continental Standard, hope they may be flourished in your
Camp and soon replaced in Ticonderoga
Agreeable to your desire I send your Honor the Particular Oocancoeei
of my Expedition to the North End of Lake George
On the 13th of Septr received Orders from Genl. Lincoln to make tin
Expedition, On the 17th arrived on the Heights above t^e TAnHing nor
Mount Defiance where I made what Discoveries I could of the SitailiQD
of the Enemy at their several Posts at Ticonda, Independance and tb
Lemding; At Daybreak the next Morning attacked the Enemy at the Init
ing and at Mt Defiance, I made such a Disposition at the Landing as a-
tirely to invest the Enemy, so that not one Man Escaped, Two of our Of*
cers were Wounded and several of the Enemy killed in t^ Attack but tti
Enemy were so surprized that they could make no Considerable DefcBoa
Mount Defiance was at the same Time stormed by one Company of tb
Rangers under the Command of Capt Eben' Allen consisting of 4D Itai
the Post being defended by Double that Numb^ was however carried ■
6 Minutes without the loss of a Man killed or wounded on our ^de, th^ia'
two killed and several Wounded and upwards of 20 taken Prisonere— O^ita
Allen deserves Immortal Honor for his spirited Conduct in this Attack,
being obliged to ascend a craggy Precipice imder the Yiie of the Ekiemy to
make the Attempt. Immediately on carrying the Landing I detached i
considerable Number of the Party to the Bridge who surprSed the Eno^
there, The Falls making such a Noise that uiey never neard the Attaa
at the Landing, the Party being reinforced by me Proceeded on to the Hoosei
and Bam near Mr. Intoss, toward the French lines where was a Coosida^
able Number of our Prisoners and one Company of British Troops vbo
were surprized in like Manner and taken Prisoners to a Man, We rdieved
in the whole of our own Prisoners at all the Posts 118 Who had been god-
fined, fatigued and dejected to such a degree that one could scarcely eos-
jecture what they were. They come out of their Holes and Cdls ii4
Wonder and Amazement, indeed the Transition was almost too mudi for
them, I immediately armed them and changed the Tables with the EdcdJi
I found the French Lines undefended and but one Company in the old Fed
I inmiediately demanded a Surrendery of Ty. & IndependflJioe, but reoor'd
a Manly deiual from General Powel, I heard nothing from Ck>k>nd Joii^
son this Day, on the 19th I received an Express from the Colol, and foind
that his attempt on Independance was not made with a View to cany i^
Indeed the Enemy have f ortif yed Independance in such a Manner that If
the block Houses and Redoubts which they have erected, together m
their Shipping, they can cover and defend the whole of the Ground on lod^
pendce the Enemy have about 700 Men in the Mount 500 of which tb^
can turn out on an Emergency, considering these Particulars, I thoa^t t
Proper not to advise to a Joint Attack of that Post, which I had in Cc^
templation before I discovered their true situation. The old Fort oooid

re been a Compensation for the Probable loss, since if Independance was
; carried this Post must have been soon evacuated

rt a Ck)nsiderable Time, from withm the old french lines and from moimt
ianoe, from which with one Ball two Men within the Parade were killed,
I after having destroyed all the Carriges and Boats except ^ in lake
ym and after having burnt most of the Stores about Ticonderoga and
ed and sent off all the Cattle and Horses, on the 24th I imbarked for
Island, having 5 Cannon moimted on the small sloop and gun Boats,
; an unluky Circumstance happened; One Terry lately a seUer [sic] in
' Army being a Prisoner, I suffered Imn to go at large on Parole but on
sailing from the landing I ordered Terry & his Associates on board the
Q Boats, unhappily an Officer coming on in the rear ordered Terry out
he Gun Boats mto his own Boat and fall under his stem, altho this Officer
I no bad intent in this Order yet it Proved our overthrow at the Island,
Night coming on with a great Storm Teny made lus Escape to the Enemy
ich gave them sufficient Oppertunity to mount their Cannon and Pre-
e for our reception I however Proceeded and made the Attempt, but
ling the Enemy too well Prepared was obliged to quit after two hoiurs
pigement, in which the Enemy huld the sloop between wind and water
men Manner I was obliged to toe her off, one of the Gun Boats also bdng
unded and many other Boats shattered to Pieces, I thought Proper

Phebe A. and a descendant of Gov. Thomas Prence of the
Plymouth Colony and of Elder William Brewster of the May-
jhwer. He and his wife are buried in Spring Grove Cemetery,
Cincinnati, Ohio.
He studied at Harvard and at West Point, when Robert E.
Lee was instmctor there, but he was not a gntduate of either
institution. He was captain of the Salem Light Infantry in
1857, and after the outbreak of the Civil War entered the serv-
ice of the United States as captain of this company, which
was known as the Salem Zouaves and formed Company J of
the Eighth Regiment, Massachusetts Volimteer Infantry. He
was in command of this company, in the Eighth Regiment,
from 18 Apr. to 1 Aug. 1861, and made a brilliant record in
this capacity. The Eighth Regiment was mustered out, after
its three months of service, on 1 Aug. 1861. Its colond,
Edward W. Hinks, was made colonel of the Nineteenth Regi-
ment, Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry, then being organ-
ized and drilled at L3mnfield, and Captain Devereux was coni-
missioned as lieutenant colonel and assigned to this new regi-
ment, 3 Aug. 1861. The regiment entrained at L}mnfield 28
300 Descendants of John Devereux [Oct
Aug. 1861, and proceeded via Boston, Fall River, and New
York to Washington, where it arrived at midnight on 30 Aug.
With this regiment Lieutenant Colonel Devereux was in active
service for nearly two years, participating, among other en-
gagements, in the Battle of Ball's Bluff (Oct. 1861), the battles
of the Peninsula campaign (1862), and the Battles of Antie-
tam, where he was sUghtly wounded (17 Sept. 1862), Fred-
ericksburg (Dec. 1862), and Gettysburg (1-3 July 1863). On
the third day of the Battle of Gettysbiirg he led his raiment in
the repulse of Pickett's Charge, and his regiment captured the
battle flags of four Virginia regiments on that day. He had
been commissioned a colonel on 1 May 1863, to date from 29
Nov. 1862, and after the Gettysburg campaign he was sent
to Massachusetts on detached service, being absent from the
front for several months. He resigned his commission on
27 Feb. 1864, and received his discharge from the service on
4 Mar. following. On 13 Mar. 1865 he was brevetted as
brigadier general of Volunteers for gaUant service during
the War.
Colonel Devereux's portrait appears in Batchelder's great
painting of the third day at Gettysburg and also in the pic-
ture of the Battle of Gettysburg in the grand stairway of the
State House at Harrisburg, Pa., the repiilse of Pickett's
Charge being the scene presented in each of these paintings.*
Several swords belonging to Colonel Devereux, includiDg
one presented to him by the city of Salem and one given to
him by the city of Baltimore, Md., when he was in conunand
there early in the Civil War, are now preserved in the Essex
Institute at Salem, and a tablet to his memory, recounting
his military services, was erected in 1911 by his comrades in
arms in the Devereux tomb in the Broad Street Cemetery,
Salem.
After the Civil War Colonel Devereux was for several years
commandant of the National Soldiers' Home at Marion, Ind.,
and he served in the Ohio Legislature in 1882 and 1883. He
was one of those receiving a special medal conferred by Con-
fess for distinguished service, and for years was the only
living officer to whom a monument was placed on the field of
Gettysburg.

Rbv. Stbfhxn BAcmLBB. — An interesting bit of ioformation relating to the
life of Rev. Stephen Bachiler before his emi^tion to New England may be
found in the printed volumes of ''Acts of the Pnvy Council,'' where, in the record
of a meeting of the Ck>uncil in the Star Chamber on 29 May 1593, the following
entzy occurs:
"A letter to the Lord Buishop of Winton, M' Doctor Bilson and the rest:
"Whereas we perceave by your letters o! the xxvijth of this presente moneth
and the examinacions therewith sent, that Steven Bachiler, vicar of Wherwel in
your Dioces, hath uttered in a sermon at Newbuiry verie lewd speeches tending
■ediciously to the derogatcion of her Majesties government, and that you have
examined and comitted nim til farther direction from us in this behalf:
"Theis shalbe to praie and require your Lordship &c., to send the said Stephen
Bachiler under saie custodie up hither to me the Lord Archbishop of Canterbury
•Shs mARMd teoondly Joe La Bell.

'with such further matter and proof as hath sithenc fallen owt, to be prooeded
with aoording the nature and quallitie of his offenc and the laws of this radm:
"So, not doubting of your care in the due performaunce heieof, etc^'*
Few original references to Bachiler's early life in England have come down to
us. In Winthrop's "History of New Ensland^" in the account of Badiiler's «►
communication irom the Hampton church, it is said that he "had suffered mock
at the hands of the bishops in JBngland.^t Thomas Prince^ in his abort aoooont of
Bachiler, said that
he was an ancient minisi
We know that Bachiler ^ . , ^ ,
de la Warr, to the vicarage of Wherwell in ELampfihire, 'an<^ that <m Aiml UQS
John Bate was made vicar there because of the "ejection of Sti^hea BftdSfar."|
No record has been foimd of the date of this ejection.
Bachiler was still living at Wherwell in 1596 and in 1607. William QpenMrof
Cheriton, Hants, in his will, dated 14 Aug. 1596 and proved 20 Sqyt. IM^ ip-
pointed "M^ Stephen Bacheler, minister of Wherwell," one of his OT Ci ae eii and
trustees, 1 1 and Henry Shipton, a tanner of Shaw, Berkshire, in his will, unkfted
but proved 24 Mar. 1606/7, left a legacy of forty shillings to "Mr Stephen Batch-
eler of Horell, co. Southton."f Bachiler does not appear on the Lay Saba47
Roll for Hamnshire in 7 James I [1609-10], but in 1622 and 1629 he boojdit two
properties in Newton Stacy, Hante, and his name appears on the Lay Sofambr
Roll of 4 Charles I [1628-9] under Newton Stacy.**
The New England sojourn of Stephen Bachiler lasted from 1632 to 1654. Hb
was upwards of seventy when he landed in Boston from the WiUiam and Fnmdt
He was more than ninety-three when he returned to England. His scoare of jmd
here was embittered by strife. . Nearlv eveiy vear was maiked by his rsvolt
against the harsh and arbitrary rule of tne Bay oligarchs. The same spirit of M-
rest and revolt was manifest in his early years. In 1593 he was but seven yesnook
of Oxford, and he had been but six years vicar of the quiet little pariah on theT(Bl
The year 1593 marked the close of the first chapter of Whitgut's peneeutiootf
the Puritans, in his stru^e to enforce uniformity on the unwiUmg Endil
Church. On 6 Aor. 1593 Barrowe and Greenwood bad died on the scaffold for
nonconformity. On 29 May, the very date of the order dted above, John FeniT
was executed for the same cause. Bachiler was summoned from his peannl
Hampshire vicarage for no idle jaimt to London. Danger, torture, periiapsdesA
itself lurked behind Canterbury's vestments.
John Whitgift was an unfortimate successor in the primacjr to Edmund CMndii,
whose wise and gentle rule had recognized the spread of Puntanism in the QmRh
of England. But Whitgift had the full approval of his royal miatress, who »v
no merit but in force.
The vicar of Wherwell also had a strong majority of his diocesan s up erioB
against him. Cooper, the bishop of Winchester, had prepared the first categoii-
cflu answer to the Mar-Prelate pamphlets, whose author had just died on tfae
scaffold. Bilson. the warden of Winchester School, was all for uniformity; isi
few short vears ne was to be Cooper's successor. Martin Heton, the dean sad
the future bishop of Ely, was anti-Puriten. All but two or three of the caDotf
were uniformists — amon^ them Henry Cotton, soon to be bishop of SalubniT.
ScAnt mercy could Bachiler expect from the stem Archbishop or from bis oia
diocese.
Save for this mention, there is no record of the sermon at Newbuiy niiich had
so roused the Archbishop and the Bishop. Nor do we know the result of Bu^
iler's visit to the Star Chamber. For forty vears more he remained in HMJoapAint
preaching the Puritan doctrines. But both in England and in New TC»>gi™ k
tought, all his long life, against the arbitrary misuse of authority, both by tke
Lords Bishops and the Lords Brethren.
