This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library 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 marginalia 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.
Usage guidelines
Google is proud to partner with libraries to digitize public domain materials and make them widely accessible. Public domain books belong to the
public and we are merely their custodians. Nevertheless, this work is expensive, so in order to keep providing this resource, we have taken steps to
prevent abuse by commercial parties, including placing technical restrictions on automated querying.
We also ask that you:
+ Make non-commercial use of the files We designed Google Book Search for use by individuals, and we request that you use these files for
personal, non-commercial purposes.
+ Refrain from automated querying Do not send automated queries of any sort to Google's system: If you are conducting research on machine
translation, optical character recognition or other areas where access to a large amount of text is helpful, please contact us. We encourage the
use of public domain materials for these purposes and may be able to help.
+ Maintain attribution The Google "watermark" you see on each file is essential for informing people about this project and helping them find
additional materials through Google Book Search. Please do not remove it.
+ Keep it legal Whatever your use, remember that you are responsible for ensuring that what you are doing is legal. Do not assume that just
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
anywhere in the world. Copyright infringement liability can be quite severe.

THE
NEW ENGLAND
HISTORICAL AND GENEALOGICAL
RFGTSTER
JANUAIIY, I'Jll
CHARLES EDWm HURD
By Edward Hbnst Clbmbnt, A.M., Litt.D., of Cambridge, Mats.
Charles Edwin Hubd, the late literary editor of the Boston
Transcript^ became a member of the New England Historic Gene-
alogical Society in 1895, and at once his accomplishments in lan-
guages and history made him a distinguished and valuable member.
His natural tastes had led him, in his maturity, to the study of the
Scandinavian tongues and literature, and he did not rest until he
had acquired an actual and practical command of the Swedish and
Norwegian languages. He was the personal friend of the great
Norwegian litterateur and statesman, Bjomstjeme Bj5mson, and a
translator of and commentator upon the plays of Ibsen. The
threads of our New England descent extend back to the common
aoarces of all the Northern peoples of Europe. There is a kinship
of spirit in their free, representative political ideas and institutions.
It was always a fascinating diversion for him to trace these lines in
history and literature, as a collateral interest with his genealogical
avocation. He will be missed among contributors, for such scholar-
ship is all too rare among American genealogists.
A^ir. Hurd was bom in Croydon, N. H., June 15, 1833. His
father, a farmer of long descent in that region, traced back to Sec-
retary Kawson of the Colonial government. Young Hurd was en-
abled to supplement the common school education with a term at
Hempstead Academy. In his youth, thereafter, he went through
the usual experience of those who had enjoyed such advantages, of
teaching, in his turn, in the district school. Then at twenty he
came to Boston and found congenial employment on the city and
suburban newspapers. Thus were laid the foundations for his sub-
sequent development and career as litterateur.
But Hurd had also a strong predilection, and no small gift, for
art in all its phases, especially for painting and the drama. He be-
came so much of a devotee of the theatre that at one time he had
serious thoughts of going upon the stage, and only abandoned this
purpose after an actual experience in small parts in one of the Bos-
ton stock-companies. Then he was determined to be an artist.
He took a course of lessons with a Boston painter and soon set up a
studio for himself in the old Studio Building, at that time new,

without, however, losing hie hold on journalism. This combination
of talents stood him in good stead during the Civil War, making
him invaluable, with his double faculty, as a war correspondent. It
also led to that unique experience, which he made the most of both
with pen and pencil, in the short-lived invasion of Canada, in
the summer of 1870, by the Fenians' Falstaffian army from across
the Vermont border near St. Albans. He was accompanying his
friend John Boyle O'Reilly, the Irish poet and editor of the Pilot,
when the command of the Fenian army devolved on O'Reilly, though
he was present only as correspondent of his paper, after the prompt
arrest of its ** general " by the United States marshal. Hurd repre-
sented Frank Leslie^s Illustrated Newspaper in the raid, and his
pictures and text remain the classic chronicle of that extraordinary
episode, giving to the full its comic, as well as its tragic, elements.
From 1870 to 1875 Hurd was settling down more determinedly to
his profession of journalism and letters. Stepping onward from the
editorship of a New York " up-State " paper, the Erie Dispatch,
to an editorial position in Providence and engagements on the Bos-
ton Journal and the Boston Globe, he reached, in 1875, the liter-
ary chair of the Boston Transcript. That great position he held
with growing honor, success, and usefulness for the rest of his
active life in service of the public. For he administered his trust
always under a strong conscientious sense of its public relations and
responsibilities. He conducted it as though it had its part to play
in the discovery and greeting and nurturing of all coming-on talent.
His associates can testify to his self-effacing, self-sacrificing devotion,
and not merely to the ^arduous duty of his post, but also to the
highest interests of the community in the faithful holding up of the
standards of taste and culture in the then undisputed literary centre
of America. He gave only too lavishly of his time and toil in study-
ing the work of others, whether in books or manuscripts, lest he
might do less than justice to any aspiring endeavor brought to his no-
tice. He would not have it on his conscience possibly to discourage
a struggling candidate for the public attention at a critical moment —
one who might prove a valuable addition to the literary guild. He
would day after day patiently listen to, and counsel with, such as-
pirants till the working-hours were past, and he must in consequence
sit at his desk through half the night to finish his own required work.
In 1901, while toiling at night at his accumulated tasks alone in
the office, a large and heavy dictionary slipped from his hands, and,
falling upon his foot, inflicted such injuries that, after months of
terrible suffering endured, gangrene set in. First his toes were
amputated ; then he lost his foot ; and many dragging months afler,
the whole leg. His retirement was thus enforced, but still he was
prized and retained in the service and pay of his generous and sympa-
thetic employer, the Transcript. Besides, he wrote for the maga-
zines and assisted in the compilation of books for other publishers,
happily occupied and doing valuable service to the end.
1911] James Brown of Middletown^ Conn. 5
His loyalty to Boston was such that, although he was most com-
fortably provided for and delightfully situated in Brooklyn, N. Y.,
he insist^ on removing with his household gods to Boston just to
spend amid the old scenes the last years of his life. It proved to be
only months, but he was serenely happy all the while ; and the end
came without any shock or struggle. It was simply a natural and
beautiful sinking peacefully into a well-earned rest.
The simplest of services was read over his body by his old friend
Rev. E. A. Horton. By his express request no other words were
said ; and from his new home in Allston the remains were taken to
Lempster, N. H., for burial. Mr. Hurd is survived by his widow,
who is a native of Nova Scotia, one daughter, Mrs. Morrill W.
Craines (Grace Marguerite Hurd) of Brooklyn, N. Y., and three
sons, Charles W., William J., and Reginald Hurd.
JAMES BROWN OF MIDDLETOWN, CONN.
By Edwin A. Hill, Ph.D., of Washington, D. C.
The Register (vol. 62, p. 334) contains a very brief and incomplete
accoont of the descendants of James^ Brown of Middle town, and while
his male descendants were not numerous, the female lines of descent are
quite the reverse.
Many years since the writer and his father traced the descendants of
Hugh* (James^), and from this material and from data furnished by Mrs.
Fowler (No. 23, v) the following more complete account of the family has
been prepared.
It is stated in the Register (vol. 15, p. 162) that James^ Brown " was
a Scotchman from Edinburg and a merchant" Various stories have come
down through different lines, and New York, Boston, and Philadelphia,
respectively, are given as his place of landing. The most reliable infor-
mation, obtained from his granddaughter, Mrs. Sarah (Brown) Griffing, is
that he came early in life to New York, and had to work for the sUp's
owners, after his arrival, to pay for his passage.
The first authentic record that we have of him is from the town records
of Guilford, Conn., where on 26 Sept. 1716 he purchased a residence of
Abram Bradley. In the deed he is described as " James Brown dealer
now resident" On 6 Dec. 1717 he sold the same property to Abraham
Bartlett, and is then described as " transient trader," a term applied to
those who went about the country buying horses and bringing them to the
coast for shipment. On Windham town records a deed appears, dated 11
Dec 1716, from Eleazur Allen to James Brown of Gilford, etc.
He was married at Windham, Conn., 10 Mar. 1718, to Esther
Brougbton, daughter of John and Hannah (AUis), bom 10 Feb. 1700
(n. 8.), died 29 Oct. 1754. He lived two or three years at Windham, and
then removed to Middletown, Conn., where on 2 Dec. 1742 he bought
Und of Jabez Hamilin, on which he built his home and in which he lived
and died. In Sept. 1770 he conveyed this property to his sons Samuel,
Hugh, and Nathaniel, and his daughter Elizabeth Cooper, " for the con-
sideration of the paternal love and affection that I have for my children.

and also for the comfortable support of me and my son John Brown daring
oar natural lives." In a will made in July of the same year he states
that his daughter Mary's portion had already been given to her son Isaac
He was married 8econ<Uy to Mart (Dowd, probably), but of this mar-
riage no record has been found. She died 23 Apr. 1767, aged 69. During
his last years he lived with his son Nathaniel, as did also £e brother John,
who from the effects of a fall in childhood was- imbecile through a long
life.* James Brown died 10 Dec. 1770, in his 96th year (gravestone),
and Esther, his wife, died 29 Oct. 1754, in her 56th year (gravestone).
Both were buried in the old Riverside (^metery in Middletown.

Guilford, Conn., until 1 802-3, when he removed to Madison (then
• In 1880 the vital records of Edinburgh, Scotland, were searched, and the following
record was found, which would appear to be, probably, the baptism of James of Mid-
dletown:
" 1678 18 February, Thomas Brown Merchant & Margaret Wallace a son named
James Witnesses James Brown Merchant James McCline Merchant, John SympsoBt
Alexander McAlexander, & John Wallace Cordiner."
The above is evidently old style dating, and reduced to new style would become
28 Feb. 1674. His age at death was, therefore, 96 years 9 months and 10 days.

Mott's company, raised for the defence of the harbor of New
London in 1776 (Conn. Men in the Revolution, p. 617). It was
probably Hugh,* for no other of this name is known in any of the

1911] Firtt Ovmership of Ohio Lands 51
FIRST OWNERSHIP OF OfflO LANDS
Bj Albiok Morris Dm, A.M.» of Cleyeland, Ohio
[Oontinaed from Vol. 64, p. 369]
Thk lists of names of first owners of lands within the limits of the State
of CHiio, as proposed on an earlier page of this writing, here follow. They
are constmcted for the purpose of this publication by comparison of the
several documents mentioned.^^
FiKST Owners op Lands in Ohio
The sale of lots or the Four Ranges of Townships at public vendue in
the City of New York, September 21 to October 9, 1787, terminated the
period of reservation or prohibition of ''settlement and purchase of the
lands inhabited or claimed by the Indians." ^^ Purchasers of lots at this
sale obtained thereby the right of entry and occupancy of the lands that
they had purchased ; all others were trespassers, excepting the French and
Canadians in the Illinois Company, who were protected by their oath of
fidelity to Virginia.^ These purchasers received certificates of payment of
purchase money issued by the Treasurer of the United States,^ which en-
titled them to such right. Certain purchasers, no doubt, moved at once
upon their lands, probably from the vantage camps on the Virginia hills over-
looking the forbidden river, but other purchasers made no actual settlements ;
facts to be ascertained by those especially interested.^^ Their names appear
in the Schedule of Sales returned by the Treasurer of the United States
after full payment for the lots had been made, as ordained by the act of
Congress passed May 20, 1785. They appear also, except the forfeitures
for non-payment of purchase money, in the official Record of Patents, and
on the plats of the surveyors, to which reference has been made.
The Schedule of Sales contains the names of purchasers with other data,
in order as the sales were made ; description of each lot sold ; location by
numerals to indicate the range, township, and lot ; number of acres in each
lot ; amount of purchase price ; payments made, etc. The Record of Sales
is a volume made up of printed blanks used by the Board of Treasury
for recording the patents as issued, one full page for each lot patented.
^ Cf. Bbowtbr for October, 1910, p. 869.
^ Ab proclaimed according to Act of Congress passed September 22, 1783, entited
** An ordinance prohibiting settlement and purchase of certain lands."
» Cf. Bbgistbr for April, 1910, p. 268.
^ Cf. note 84, tn/Va, section 4. Adrertisement of the Board of Treasury for the sale.
** An entTT in the Joamal of John Matthews (Hildreth's Pioneer History of the Ohio
Valley, p. Iw) is especially interesting in this connection :
Horeinber SO. (17871 A part of this month I hare been on the West side of the Ohio with Mr
Blmpson and Ck>lonel ilartln, assisting them In the snrrty of the lands they bought at the pnblie
sales in New Tork...
There is no record of a sale in the name of Simpson. James Simpson was Surveyor
for the State of Maryland in the Geographer's Department, but Capt. Absalom Martin,
Aurreyor for the State of New Jersey, purchased and occupied as nis permanent home
two fractional lots on the Ohio Rlyer bottoms opposite Wheeling ; land which he had
himself surreyed under Hutchins the year before. He took possession of his property
within a month or six weeks of the date of sale, and appears to be the first known set-
tler in the Western Territory. Captain Martin was the son of Ephraim Martin of
Baskenridge, N. J. (cf. Papers of the Continental Congress, No. 66, p. 178), and his
place on the Ohio Biyer was ttie landing place firom Wheeling, now known as Martin's
Vmrrjf Ohio.
TOL. LXY. 4
52 First Ownership of Ohio Lands [Jan.
The pages are numbered progressively and dated as filled out, and the
blanks are filled in with name and other data corresponding with the items
of the Schedule of Sales.^^ The plats of the surveyors show the exteriors
of the townships as surveyed, on which are lines drawn at right angles to
represent the 36 square lots in each township. The plats are drawn on the
scale of 40 chains to the inch, making each of these lots two inches square,
on which is written the name of purchaser, date, acres, etc. The lots are
numbered, also the townships and ranges as required by the ordinance :
Ranges; westward from i to vii beginning with the Pennsylvania line.
Townships, northward from the river, each range beginning with Town-
ship No. 1, and the lots ; northward from the base line of the township, in
ranges of six, beginning with Lot i at the southeast corner.^
From this data not only the names of owners but the situation of each
lot, according to present day geography, may be ascertained®* and designated
by modem names of political divisions, county and township. The region
covered by the seven Eanges of Townships may readily be traced on a map
•t Many pages of this Tolume were not used, as the form was changed for the Pitts-
burgh sale, and only 111 patents were issued. Some of the pages are signed with the
names of the three memoers of the Board of Treasury, but most of them are not so
signed. The patents are recorded in the several county records of Ohio, and they
correspond with the form given in the Ordinance of May 20, 1785.
^ Lots or sections in the Seven Ranges of Townships are not numbered as in the
later surveys. According to the terms of the ordinance of May 20, 1785 :
The plats of the towntthips respectively shall be marked bj subdivinroot into lots of one mile
sqasre or 040 acres, in the »aine direction a« ttie external lines and numbered fh>m 1 to M, always
beffiuuing the succeeding range of the lou with the number next to that with which the pre-
eedlng one concluded,
while the law of May 18, 1796, required that
the sections shall be numbered respectively, beginning with number one, in the northeast
section, aud prooeeding west and eavt alternately, through the township, with progressive nam-
bers till tlie tQlrty*iixtlj be completed.
Thus it happens that some of the townships of Columbiana, Carroll, and Stark
eounties, part of which were outside the Old Seven Ranges of Townships, have two
sets of townships and sections in the same townships with the same numbers.
**The townships offered for sale were described by numerals in the advertisement
published by the Board of Treasury, which reads as follows :

** The latest map of Ohio, issued b^ the General Land Office, bears the date 1910.
** There are two Townships No. 16 in Carroll County, the northernmost being out-
side the Seven Banges of Townships.
^ The Seven Ranges of Townships are first shown on the map entitled :
A Map of the Federal Territorv from the Western Boundary of Pennsylvania to the Scioto
Jlver, laid down from the latest Informations and divided into Townships and fractional narta
of Townships agreeably to the ordinance of the Uonble Congress passed in May, 1785,
which, according to the Phillips List of Maps of America, p. 626, is the <* Map to ac-
company Cutler 8 ' Explanation of the map of the federal lands, confirmea by the
treaties of 17S4...Salem, 1787.' " The famous map issued by Joel Barlow for European
exploitation of the Scioto Company's lands, entitled ; *' Flan des achates des Compagnies
de r Ohio*' (Cf. Winsor, vol. vii, p. 632; the Library of Confess has a fine copy
of the Barlow map recently picked up by Mr. Phillips in Pans), shows the region
marked : *' Sept ranees de Municipalit^re acquis par des individus, et occup6s depuis
1786," and described as ** Habits et d^frich^, which, considering the date of Barlow's
activity, 1788, is surprising.
A ** Plat of the Seven Kanges of Townships being part of the Territory of the United
States ^1 . W. of the Kiver Ohio which by late act of Congress are directed to be sold... W.
Barker, Sculp." issued for use of the second sale of lots, shows the survey as altered to
fit the latest land laws, 1796. The sub-divisions sold at the New York sale are marked
on this plat. This plate seems to have been used by Matthew Carey for editions of the
American Atlas as late as 1818. (A reproduction from an original print is in Avery's
History, vol. vi, betw. pp. 406 and 407.)
An outline map of the State of Ohio, showing the land divisions, prepared by Col.
Chas. Whittlesey and published in W. R. H. S. Tract No. 61, represents tho Seven
Banges of Townships as extending northerly to the base line of the Western Keserve,
whereas the writinss of Col. Whittlesey on this sub^'ect, in this and other publications,
correctly describe Uie Ohio surveys. The strip ot land, twenty-five miles wide, be-
tween the Seven Banges of Townships and the W^eslern Reserve, was surveyed in 1801
by extending the ranges northward irom the East and West line to the 41^ of latitude,
which wai» forbidden oy earlier resolution of Congress, May 9, 1786.
** Dohrman [Dorhman] is the Portuguese refugee honored by Congress (Land
Laws of the U. S., p. 222) with liberal pensions in recognition of his services to Amer-
ican sailors during the war. After his escape from Lisbon he appears as a merchant
in Chambers Street, New Tork. No doubt he attended the sale and made the first
purchase of land on the public domain. Congress voted to him a township of land in
the Seven Ranges of Townships, and he went west to take possession of his property.
Ha lived and died at Steubenville, Jefferson County, where he lies buried, and where
his descendants still reside. There are many traditions in the family concerning

*• Alexander Maoomb and William Edgar, of the city of New York, memorialised
Congress, prajing
that they may be permitted to eomplete the payment of the purchase money of a qnantlty of
land, in the territory of the United States, northwest of the river Ohio, on the original terms of
the purchase, and to obtain a grant for the same : or, that a law may be passed for granting to
the memorialists so much of the said land, as will be in proportion whiw the sum heretofore
paid by them bears to the whole amount of the purchase money.
The memorial was read in the House, May 13, 1796 (Journal of the House, 4th Con-
gress, 1st Session, p. 435), and reported upon by the committee on claims, January 30,
1798 (6th Cong. 2d Bess., p. 179), and on the 30th of April following (p. 438-439) it waa
resolved in the affirmative to agree with the report, wnich was in part as follows :
Several of the lots for which the petitioners made their contract having been sold at Pittsburgh,
In pursuance of the act of the eighteenth of May, one thousand seven hundred and ninety^slz,
if the prayer of the petition should be granted, it will be necessary to indemnify the petitioners,
by granting other lots of equivalent value.
But, as the petitioners have shown no reason why they did not proceed tofhUll their contrael,
excepting that their fhnds were otherwise employed, and as the United States must have In-
curred considerable expenses in the negotiation when the contract was made with the petition*
ers, the committee can And no reason why the forfeiture to which the petitioners have subjected
themselves by the terms of their contract, should be remitted. They therefore report, as their
opinion, that the prayer of the petition ought not to be granted.**

Land Owners on the Muskinoum
While the first sale of lots was in progress at New York, the agents and
directors of the Ohio Company of Associates were negotiating with die
Committee of Congress for the purchase of the tract of land on the Mus-
kingum River, west of the seventh range of townships. Papers were
signed for this purchase, and for the Scioto River tract, on the 27th of
October, 1787, and title to the property passed from the United States on
that date. Prior to this date the Ohio Company had arranged to apportion
the lands of their purchase among the proprietor-shareholders of die com-
pany, in number about a thousand, one numbered subdivision in each allot-
ment for each share. Plans were formed at a series of meetings, beginning
August 29, 1787, and extending beyond the date of signature to July 7,
1788, for the distribution of these shares of the lands to the proprietors by
a method of drafts, the details of which appear in the form of resolutions
** These names : WillUm Bowne, John Crawford, and Richard Piatt do not appear

60 First Ovmerahip of Ohio Lands [Jan.
Lists of the drafts kept by Col. May famish means of obt^ning the names
of the proprietors of the Ohio Company, owners of lands on the Muskingum '
River, 1788-1792.^*^ They present the drafts by name and number of the
proprietor, the agency from which the share» were obtained, and the
various numbers of Uie lots drawn against each name. An early list,
dated 1 788, gives names about in order of the alphabet, but a later list,
1796,^*** gives data from which corrections may be made, showing changes
of residence, assignments of title, forfeitures, etc. A list, constructed from
these sources follows, giving names of proprietors, residence, agency and
number of shares held,^°* the corrections taken from the attested copy being
inserted in each case in brackets.
Extracts from the Journal of Col. John May (Cincinnati, Bobert Clarke ft Co.,
1873), relating to the distribution of lots on the Muskingum :
p. 69. [May 27, 1788] At to our sunreyinc, balldinffs, etc., they are in a yery backward way.
Little appears to be doncjand a great deal of time and money miispent. . . .
p. 60. Xmny 28, 1788] The directors and agents present agreed to lease the minisUrial lot to
different persons, in lots of ten acres each, for a term not less than one hundred years, at the
option of the lessee—to be without rent the first ten years, and then a fixed rent the remainder
of the time. This was done to accommodate a number of proprietors present, whose e^kl-aor€
loti were drawn at a distance. Went this afternoon to surrey the ten^tcre totit and drew for
them in the erening. Colonel Sproat drew No. 0; Varnnm, 10; May, U; Sargent, 12; Parsons,
13, etc. . . .
p. 63. [June 7, 1788] General Varnnm and his party are making difflcalties about the e^^M-
aere loti not being drawn oontlguoas to the city; also, with respect to the Scioto nnrchase.
The rations are not good. General Pntnam did not strictly adhere to orders glren at Brackett*a
tarern In Boston, and Rice's tarem at ProTldenoe. I think I foresee difflcalties of a more
serious natore.
p. 65. [June 9, 17881 . . . Met to settle difflcultles respecting the elght^usre lots; but we
could not agree, and adjourned until to.morrow, at 6 o'clock a.m. .
L66. [June 10. 1788] . . . Met this morning, according to a4Joamment, and after mneh
te and discussion, agreed to cut up our commons into three-^icre lots, to be drawn for in
July. This has appeased the minds of the people. We also appointed officers of police.
p. 76. X*^''^7 ^* ^*^] * * * Attended myself a meeting of directors and agents, according to
order at Providence, 8th Msrch. Chose a committee to make preparation for drawing the cUif
loti. Entered into several debates, and at 2 o'clock adjourned until Monday, 7th Inst., at
8 o'clock in the morning, for the purpose of drawing the dtp lote^ and transacting such other
business as may be thought necessary for the establishment of our Infant settlement. . . .
p. 70. [July 6, 1788] ... I am employed myself in preparing for tke dramghti of the dty
p.* 82.* [July 7, 1788] . . . We hare drawn the city lots to-day. . . .
^^ Several of the official drafts, two of which are in the library of the New England
Historic Genealogical Society, were found in the chest of Col. John May, which, with
its contents, is now in the Western Reserve Historical Society.
^^ In the Col. John May collection, W: R. H. S. Attested copy of an instrument
executed February 1, 1796, whereby agents of the Ohio Company relinquish and quit-
claim to each proprietor the allotments made in the several dra^s, viz.
one lot of eight acres, one lot of 100 acres,
one lot of three acres, «^|, Ai„imi^r* 5 o**® ^ot of 640 acres,
one house or town lot, ^^ division j ^^^ j^^ ^^ 262 acres.
one lot of 160 acres,
'^The agencies employed in selling shares in the Ohio Company are given by full
title in the attested copy of the deed, although appearing in earlier lists by catchword.

[The foregoing material makes public for the first time the English home
of Christopher Gibson, Edward Sale, and William Preston, early settlers
of New England ; gives possible clues to the origin of Robert Seabrook,
James Priest, Richard Ingraham, and John Grove, other early emigrants ;
and with other data enables us to understand nearly all the relationships
expressed in the will of Christopher Gibson in 1674. The latter came
with Winthrop in 1630, was a soap-boiler by occupation, and a man of
substance ; and, although he had no children, his name survives among us
to this day in the " Christopher Gibson School " and the " Christopher '
Gibson Playground " in Dorchester, as memorials of his legacy to the free
school in that town.
Having no relatives here and no children of his own, Gibson made be-
quests to various relatives of his two wives, calling them his kinsfolk.
" Sister Foster " was Mary Bate, bom 1619, wife of Capt Hopestill Fos-
ster, daughter of James Bate and sister of Margaret Bate, second wife of
Gibson. " Cousin Hopestill Foster jun. " was her son. " Cousin Thomas
Dampford " was Thomas' Danforth, Jr., bom in 1654, son of Hon. Thomas
and Mary (Withington) Danforth, whose aunt Anne Withington married
James Bate, Jr., brother to Margaret Bate, second wife of Gibson. " Cou-
sin Ebenezer Williams " was son of Roger Williams of Dorchester by wife
Lydia Bate, sister of Gibson's second wife. " Brother Edward Sealle "
was brother of Sarah Sale, first wife of Gibson. " Ephraim Serle " and " Re-
becca Sealle, wife of Garrat Ingram,*' were children of said Edward Sale ;
and "Alice Serle" was wife of Ephraim and "Hannah Sealle," their
daughter. " William Ingraham " was brother of Garrat Ingraham. " Gib-
son Farr," bom in 1666, was son of Eleazer Farr, who married Mary
Preston, daughter of Daniel Preston and granddaughter of William Pres-
ton, who married Elizabeth Saje, sbter of Gibson's first wife. " Cousin
Joseph Alsop jr." was son of Joseph Alsop, who married Elizabeth Pres-
ton, daughter of William Preston, who married Elizabeth Sale. " Brother
James Brett" means James Bate, Jr., brother of Gibson's second wife.
"Sister Mansfield" seems to refer to Mary, wife of John Mansfield of
Boston, formerly wife of John Gove ; possibly she was Mary Sale, bom
in 1604, sister of Gibson's first wife. How William Lane was "brother "
to Gibson is not clear. " Sister Snelling " must refer to Sarah j
who married, about 1656, John Snelling of Boston, but her connection with
Gibson is not apparent. A James Priest was baptized at Chesham 5 Nov.
1610, son of Abraham and Elizabeth (Nuens) Priest ; perhaps he was our
emigrant of Weymouth in 1 640 and the legatee of Gibson's will. The name
Ingraham is common in Bucks, and it may be found that Richard Ingra-
ham, father of William and Garrat, came from that county. Elizabeth,
"John Withington's wife," was daughter of Daniel Preston and grand-
daughter of William Preston.
1911] Ghnealogtcai Besearch in England 67
Of Gibson's " honored Mends," Gov. Leverett's wife, Sarah Sedgewick,
belonged to a family located at Wobum, co. Beds, and Edward Tyng's wife
was Mary Sears, daughter of Francis Sears of Layton Buzzard, co. Beds.
These places are but five miles apart and about twenty miles north of
Chesham ; and Christopher Gibson probably originated in their vicinity.
Heretofore it has always been supposed that William Preston came from
Giggleswick in Yorkshire, where he appears to have had property. This
place is over two hundred miles north of Chesham, where it now appears
he certainly lived for over twenty years before emigrating to America.
The registers of Chesham show the marriage, on 10 June 1630, of
2^achariah Whitman and Sarah Biscoe, baptized at Chesham 9 Nov. 1606,
daughter of Richard and Martha Biscoe. This couple are evidently the
Zacharia Whitman, aged 40, and wife Sarah, aged 25, who came to New
England in the Truelove in Sept 1635, the same ship that brought William
Preston from Chesham. This Zachariah Whitman was a brother of John
Whitman of Weymouth, ancestor of most of the Whitmans of America.
Besearch in Bucks may unearth the Whitman ancestry. J. G. Babtlett.]
Sale of Blbdow, Co. Bucks
[The two following wills are the earliest testaments in the Archdeaconry
of Bucks of the Sales of Bledlow. A study of these wills and the extracts
from the registers indicate that both testators were bom not far from 1545,
and so probably were of a later generation than the first John Sale, who
settled in Chesham, and whose wife was bom about 1525. It is likely that
Amy Sale, the testatrix of 1608, was widow of a brother of James Sale,
the testator of 1608. There are several wills of descendants at Bledlow
of James Sale, and also of Amy Sale, but they throw no light on the Sale
^unily of Chesham, which furnished the emigrant to New England.]

[The will of John Bradstreet of Capel, dated 161 0, mentions a nephew
Humphrey Bradstreet, probably the emigrant Humphrey Bradstreet, aged
40, who came in 1634 ^m Ipswich in the ship Elizabeth with wife Bridget
and children Hannah, John, Martha, and Mary. It will be remembered
that Isaac Mixer and his family, who came in the same ship, were also
from Capel (Register, vol. 63, p. 277). I believe John of Capel, the
testator of 1610, and his brother Thomas (probably father of Humfrey), to
be the sons of that name bom to Humfrey Bradstreet of Gislingham in
1568 and 1571. I also believe that the son Simon Bradstreet, mentioned
in the wil] of John Bradstreet of Gislingham in 1559, was the father of
Rev. Simon Bradstreet and grandfather of Governor. Simon Bradstreet.
It is known that the Governor's father, Rev. Simon, born about 1565-70,
was a minister and held a living at Horbling, Lincolnshire, where the Grov-
emor was bom in 1603, and that before this he held a living at Hinderclay,
CO. Suffolk, which is only ^ve miles from Gislmgham. (For the will of
Rev. Simon Bradstreet of Horbling see Register, vol. 48, p. 170.) ITiere
were Bradstreet families at Buxhall and vicinity, but there is no apparent
connection with the Gislingham and Capel families. E. F.]
[The above suggestion, Qiat Humphrey Bradstreet, nephew of John of
Capel, the testator of 1610, was the emigrant to New England, seems
probably correct. It seems unlikely, however, that John of Capell, who died
in 1610, was identical with John, born in 1571, the son of Humphrey of
Gislingham. Capel, Bentley, and Wenham are adjacent parishes in Suf-
folk, about ^yt miles southwest of Ipswich, and Gislingham is some thirty
miles north of them. A Robert Bradstreet was taxed in Capel, and a
Henry Bradstreet in Bentley, in the Suffolk Subsidy of 1568, and it is
likely that one of these, probably Robert, was the father of John of Capel,
the testator of 1610. In the Suffolk Subsidy of 1524 an Edmund Brad-
strett and an Eklmund Bradstet junior were assessed at Bentley.
The suggested line of ancestry of Gov. Bradstreet seems reasonable, and
it is to be hoped that further evidence on this line may be found.
The Suffolk Subsidy for 1327 has but three mentions of Bradstreet in
the whole county : Roger de Bradestret of Combs, Hugo de Brastrete of
Great Finborough, and William de Brakstrete of Greeting.
Th^se three parishes are contiguous and adjacent to Buxhall, which is
in the centre of Suffolk and just half way between Gislingham and Capel.
It therefore seems likely that the Bradstreet family originated near Bux-
hall, and that in the fifteenth century branches spread north some fifteen
miles to Gislingham and south an equal distance to Capel.

[George Barrell came to Boston in 1637 &om St. Michael's, Wangford
Hundred, Suffolk (Register, vol. 61, p. 69). By St. Michael's is meant the
parish of South Elmham St. Michael's. There are six South Elmhams :
South Elmham All SaintsK^um-St. Nicholas, South Elmham St. Cross or
Sandcroft St George, South Elmham St. James, South Elmham St. Mar-
garet, South Elmham St. Michael, and South Elmham St. Peter. An-
ciently it was customary to call these places simply by the name of the
chnrch. The only other Barrell will found is of too early a date in the six-
teenUi century to trace any connection with this family. Savage calls the
emigrant William Barrell a brother of George, but there is no evidence for
this assertion, which appears to be erroneous. £, F. j

REVOLUTIONARY SOLDIERS OF YORK COUNTY,
MAINE
Communicated by Gbobob Waltbb Cuambb&lain, M.S., of Maiden, Mass.
Forty-five years after the beginning of the American Revolu-
tion there were 249 persons living in York County who appeared
before Benjamin Greene of South Berwick, Chief Justice of the
Court of Common Pleas for the first eastern circuit of Maine, to
present their claims for pensions from the United States Govern-
ment. The sessions of Court were held at York on July 4 and 5,
1820, and at Alfred on July 18, 19, and'20 following.
Each applicant for pension was required to make an afiidavit of
his services and present conditions for record in the Court and to be
transmitted to the ofiice of the Secretary of War. These afiidavits
in York County were arranged alphabetically and recorded in the
Common Pleas Records, vol. 38, pp. 254-506, by Daniel Sewall,
clerk.
Somewhat over fifty of the applications were reversed at this ses-
sion, and later many of these persons and about twenty others pre-
sented their claims more fully than had been done in 1820. The
later affidavits give much military information concerning the soldier
as well as interesting facts about each family, and are recorded in
several volumes of tibe court records {vide infra) .
It must be remembered that, in 1820, Berwick included the pres-
ent towns of Berwick and North Berwick ; Shapleigh, the present
towns of Shapleigh and Acton ; HoUis, the present towns of HoUis
and Dayton ; Saco, the present city of Saco and the town of Old
Orchard ; while the town of Arundel has been changed to Kenne-
bunkport.
The families herein given include only those living with each ap-
plicant at the date of his application.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE NEW ENGLAND HISTORIC
GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY
By John Alb&bb, Recording Secretary
Boston^ MassachuseUs, 4 May^ 1910. A stated meeting of the Society was
held at Pilgrim Hall, U Beacon Street, at 2.30 p.Mm President Baxter presiding.
The minutes of the April meeting were read and approved.
The reports of the Corresponding Secretary, Librarian, Historian, and Coun-
cil were accepted.
Fifteen members were elected by ballot to resident membership.
Henry ^ Chapman, D.D., LL.D., Professor of English Literature and Lan-
guage, Bowdoin College, and Vice-President of the Maine Historical Society,
read a paper on Joel Barlow and hU Columbiady in which he told of Barlow's
interesting career as a patriot, man of affiiirs, diplomat, and man of letters, and
commented on the fact that there still remains against Barlow the hostility bom
of political prejudices, the occasion of which has long since been forgotten.
A vote of thanks of the Society was extended to I^ofessor Chapman for his
learned address, and for his careful and discriminating delineation of one who
was a patriot and a poet.
The meeting then dissolved, after which refreshments were served.
6 October. A stated meeting of the Society was held at Pilgrim Hall, 14
Beacon Street, Boston, at 2.30 p.m., President Baxter presiding.
The minutes of the May meeting were read and approved.
The reports of the Corresponding Secretary, Librarian, Historian, and Coun-
cil were accepted.
Twenty members were elected by ballot to resident membership.
On motion, it was
Voted— lihAt the New England Historic Oenealogical Society accepts the be-
quest of the late George Sumner Mann, subject to the conditions imposed in his
will, and the Treasurer of this Society be hereby authorized to receipt for the
said legacy, subject to the said restrictions.
It was announced that the City Council of Boston had taken action relative
to marking the scions of the Old Elm on the Common, as recommended by this
Society.
The paper of the afternoon was on Early American Jewish History^ by Lee M.
Friedman, LL.B., a member of the Suffolk Bar, in which he presented the results
of his study of the history of a people that are frequently styled alien, but who,
from the time of Columbus's first voyage, have been interwoven with the events
of the American continent. He mentioned especially, among others, Solomon
Franko, who was in Boston In 1649, the first recorded Jew in the present United
States, Judah Monls, for forty years the Instructor In Hebrew at Harvard Col-
lege, and Haym Salomon of Philadelphia, the ardent patriot and substantial sup-
porter of Jefferson, Madison, and Munroe in the dark times of the Revolution.
Rev. Anson Titus spoke of a visit to the grave of Monls at Northborough, >f ass.,
and on his motion a vote of thanks of the Society was extended to Mr. Friedman
for his paper, so interestingly presented, in which were embodied the results
of extensive and accurate research.
Frank B. Sanborn of Concord spoke of Samuel Gk>rdon's book on the Excel-
lency of the Jewish Character and the Chrlstlanlzatlon of Jerusalem, which was
written In Boston at the time Franko was here. It was attributed for years to
fiCilton, but Gordon's authority Is now proven.
The meeting was dissolved, after which refreshments were served and an
exhibit of noteworthy genealogies was Inspected.
2 November, A stated meeting of the Society was held at 14 Beacon Street,
at 2.30 P.M., President Baxter presiding.
The records of the October meeting were read and approved. The reports
of the Corresponding Secretary, Librarian, Historian, and Council were ac-
cepted.
By ballot the following were elected members of the Nominating Committee :
Joseph Gardner Bartlett, Virginia Hall, Arthur Greene Loring, Walter Kendall
Watkins, and Frank Ernest Woodward.

Mr. George Francis Dow, Secretary of the Essex Institute, Salem, spoke on
Ten English Tovtns^ which he visited recently, and whose names are borne by
towns in Essex County in Massachusetts. The address was replete with in-
cident, description, historical fact, and anecdote.
Archibald M. Howe and James H. Stark spoke of visits they had made in
England, and on motion of Charles Sidney Ensign a vote of thanks of the
Society was given to Mr. Dow for his account of his journey to the Old English
Towns, for which his enthusiastic and thorough work on behalf of their New
England namesakes especially prepared him.
The meeting then dissolved, after which refreshments were served, and the
collection of all the volumes of Massachusetts vital records thus far printed
was inspected.
NOTES
It having oome to the attention of this Society that certain
genealogists and publishers have used the name of the Society
in connection with their own enterprises, the Society again de-
sires to state that it has TS(0 genealogical representatiyes in this
country or in England, nor is it in any way connected with any
publications other than those that it issues over its own name
at 18 Somerset Street, Boston.
The Committee on English Besearch desires to state, however,
that although the Society has no oficial representative in England
the Committee is employing Miss French as a record searcher there
along special lines for the benefit of the Bbgisteb.
Kino, Browke. — In Fhillimore and Gumey*s Buckinghamshire Parish Regis-
ters, vol. 6, pp. 10, 11, occur the following marriages at High Wycombe :
Daniel King & Eliz. Guy 4 Oct. 1624
Chaddus Browne & Eliz. Sharparowe 11 Sept 1626
It was surmised by Mr. Henry F. Waters, who furnished the information to
Mr. Bufus King for his '^ Pedigree of King of Lynn, Mass.," that Daniel King,
Sr.,'s wife*s family name was Guy. Her first name was known to be Elizabeth.
The correctness of the surmise is borne out by the marriage mentioned above,
to which Mr. Waters has called attention. High Wycombe is not far from Bea-
consfield, in the same county, of which place Daniel King, Jr., was in May 1658,
being bound for New England. (Cf . Register, vol. 33, pp. 376-6.)
The date of Chaddus Browne*s marriage, as above, and the first name of his
wife, are right for Chad Browne of Rhode Island. The locality seems likely,
judging by the names of his associates as shown by Sylvester Baldwin's nun-
cupative will. {Ex inform. William P. Greenlaw; cf. Chad Browne Memorial,
pp. 7-8, and Waters*s Genealogical Gleanings, vol. 1, p. 708.)

Lkvkrett.— (Cf . Rbgistkr, vol. 86, pp. 273-^, 846-56.) The theory that the
address on the letter of King Charles to Gov. Leverett, which led to the assump-
tion that Leverett may have been knighted, was due to a clerical error, is borne
out by the following fact.
The letter in question was granted on petition of John Wampus alias White, who
was in prison in London for debt. In this petition Wampus prays for a letter to
** Sir John Leverett." (Colonial Entry Book, vol. 93, p. 150 ; Papers, vol. 37, p.
49.) Doubtless the scrivener who wrote the petition accepted it as a matter of
oourse that so prominent a man had some title, and gave him that of Sir. The
error was passed along by the clerks in the government, who then as now would
not be apt to verify a title so common as that of Sir ; hence the address '^ S' John
Leverltt, Knt." As to the reading of the date of receipt of the letter, Savage
was probably correct in making it out 2 June 1677. From a court paper in
Suffolk files (1642) it appears that Wampus brought over the letter himself, and
arrived In the "spring of 1677," later more closely fixed by "four months
since," the date of the entry being October. It is also an interesting fact that
Robert Taft of Mount Hope was one of the men who became associated with
Pratt and Blake in the attempt to establish their claim to lands under a grant
from Wampus, which finally culminated in the incorporation of Sutton. It was
at an Indian court held at Coowate at the lower falls of Charles Blver, In 1677,
that Wampus's claims to possess land In severalty were repudiated by the Indians.
This is one of the localities where the Christian Indians were allowed to settle
at the end of the war, whilst hostilities were still being carried on, and was
eridently an ancient village site, as during the past few years my son has quite
thoroughly searched this locality and unearthed a number of stone Implements,
chips, and pottery, as have others In former years. The site of the village would
seem to be in the little dell stUl partly existing in the ravine just north of Glen
Bead on the Wellesley side of the river at Newton Lower Falls, and between the
Metropolitan Park reservation and Glen Boad. The brook rising at Indian
Spring, and that from the Hundreds, enter the river near this spot.

Spinney, Randall, Nobman. — Pope's Maine and New Hampshire Pioneers, if
pabUshed^at the time, would have subjected the author to an action for libel, for
he says that the unfortunate young woman, Margery Randall, was found guilty,
because she was unable to prove her marriage to William Norman, whereas a
few pages further along the records show Norman's confession of having grlev*
ously wronged her by marrying her without having been divorced from his wife
In England ; whereupon Margerjr's marriage was annulled, with alimony, and he
was banished the province under pain of death. Thomas Spinney was men-
tioned In these proceedings, and this was doubtless the Margery that became his
wife. It is commonly stated that Mary, wife of John Femald, was daughter of
Thomas Spinney, but I surmise that she was daughter of William and Margery
Norman by this bigamous marriage. Norman was prosecuted for this double
marriage, in March 1650-1, and the History of Kittery says that John and Mary
were married before 1669. Thomas Sphmey does not mention Mary in his will,
86 ITotes [Jan.
althoagh it was witnessed by a Mary Fenudd ; bat he had previoasly conveyed
to John Fernald a piece of land by a peculiarly worded deed. Whether the origi-
nal deed is in existence I know not, but I have closely examined the original reconl.
Entries with comma and ampersand are common, as for instance, ^' Thomas Spin-
ney, & Margery his wife," who are the grantors ; bat there is no ampersand in de-
fining Mary's parentage. The entry rcAds : ^^ John Fernald, of the same town,
shoemaker, who married Mary the daughter of the said Spinney, his said wife."
This is the ancient possessive case and means Mary the daughter of said Spin-
ney's said wife. Of coarse all the facts must have been weU known in Kittery
at the time this deed was drawn and recorded. Many worthy and some very
prominent people come from John and Mary, and it looks as though we must
acknowledge our descent from an ill-regulated and cruel, though apparently re-
pentant, man and his unfortunate but blameless mate. On the other hand It
should be said that later on in the deed the language is **■ their said daughter,**
and that after John Femald's death Thomas Spinney stood as the grandfather
of his minor children. The language of the deed, however, appears to be un-
mistakable, as also that Mary was not Spinney, except aa Thomas was a good
father to her. Chables Thornton Libbt.

HuMFRET. — In a study of the life of John Humfrey, one of the founders of
the Massachusetts Bay Colony, I have been led to the conclusion that he was
the John Humfrey who signed the pedigree in Harleian MS. 1166, fo. 9\ as pub-
lished in the Visitation of Dorset, 1628, p. 57. He is recorded there as son and
heir of '' Michael Humfrey of Chaldon in com. Dorset," and aged 26 years In
1628, with wife Elizaljeth, daughter of '* Herbert Felham of Compton in com.
Dorset," and John Humfrey, son and heir, aged one year.
On page 105 of the History of the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company is
the statement that John Humfrey's eldest son John joined the company in 1641,
which would make him about 19 or 20 at that time.
But the best evidence of identity is a comparison of the pedigree signature
with the signature of John Humfrey in his letter to his brother-in-law, Isaac
Johnson, in 1680, as shown in 4 Mass. Historical Society Collections, vol. 6,
pi. 1.* Though written seven years apart, and the signature attached to the
pedigree a formal one, while the other was a careless one closing a familiar let-
ter to his brother-in-law, I believe any expert in hand writing would pronounce
them belonging to the same hand.
It would be interesting to obtabi, if possible, the will of Michael Humfrey.
He is mentioned in the list of adventurers at Cape Ann by John White of Dor-
chester in 1684, but among those ^'all sithence deceased" (Rboister, vol. 61,
p. 279). Further along in the list we find '^ John Humfrey, gent., living in New
England."
I thhik investigation will prove that Michael Humfrey of Windsor, Conn., was
a grandson of the Michael of the Dorset pedigree and nephew of John Humfrey
of the Massachusetts Bay Colony.

If the foregoing descent be correct, it is evident that the Lady Sasan, sister
of the Earl of Lincoln, was his second wife and not the mother of John the
eidest son. It is also probable that he was a brother-in-law of Herbert Pelham,
another of the founders of the Massachusetts Bay Colony.

Mjlxob of East GREENWiCH.^The expression in early charters and grants in
New England, in substance, that the land was to be held in full and common
socage as of the King's Manor of East Greenwich in the County of Kent, has
troubled many people and has given rise to various explanations, many of them
fanciful. The same expression was used in the grant by James I in 1608 to cer-
tain Benchers of the Inner Temple and Middle Temple of the ground and build-
ings occupied by them. What may be considered an authoritative explanation
of the phrase is given by a Bencher of the Middle Temple, Arthur Robert
Ingpen, K. C, In a note to page 25 of a recent edition of ^^ Master Worsley's
Book,*' a history of the Middle Temple, a copy of which follows :
*' The Manor of East Greenwich belonged formerly to the priory and convent
of Shene, and was granted by the Prior to the King, 23 Hen. VIII, to be annexed
to the patrimony of the Crown (Hasted's ' Hist, of Kent,* 1778). Prior to abo-
lition of Feudal tenure by 12 Car. II, c. 24, if the king granted lands without
reserving any particular service or tenure the patentee would hold of him In caplte
by knights-service. The king was empowered by statute 35 Hen. VIII, c. 14, as
to the lesser monasteries, and by statute 37 Hen. VIII, c. 20, as to all manors
and land not exceeding 40s. per ann. in value, and by whatever title acquired, to
grant the same to be holden of the king, either by knights-service in caplte, or
by fealty in socage or burgage and not in caplte. Subsequently by statute 1
Edw. VI, c. 4, It was declared that all estates, without any limit as to value,
holden of the king his heirs and successors by knights-service, socage or other-
wise as of any of his or their Dukedoms, Earldoms, Baronies, Castles, or Manors
which came to the Crown by means of any dissolution, surrender, attainder, con-
viction, or outlawry should not be taken to be holden in caplte or as tenure In ca-
plte. Thenceforth Crown grants by Letters Patent, and even statutory grants of
Crown lands (see 27 Ellz., c. 27), are frequently found to be In form * Tenendum
de nobis et heredibus nostris in libera et conmiune soclag fldellbat tantum ut de
manerlo nostris de East Greenwich in Com. KantisB.* The tenendum ^ as of our
Manor of East Greenwich in free and common socage by fealty only * was a fiction
intended to create an estate within the meaning of the statute I Edw. VI, c. 4,
and to express that the grantee held free of all services except fealty, which is
an essential Incident to every tenure and cannot be released. This was also for-
merly a common form in the charters to the old English Colonies in America.
An amusing speech was made by Sir James Marriott In addressing the House of
Commons on the question of American taxation. He declared *• that It appeared
to him that the matter had been mistaken through the whole argument. It had
been contended tliat America should not be taxed, because she was not repre-
sented. But the assertion was untrue, seeing that when we took possession of
America, we did so as part and parcel of the Manor of East Greenwich in the
County of Kent* (Polsln's * Law and Lawyers,' 1868, p. 177). The correspond-
ing stock manor of the Duchy of Lancaster was the Manor of Enfield In the
County of Mld^esex. The Manor of the Temple, although originally of the Honor
of Leicester and Duchy of Lancaster, ceased to be connected with the Duchy on
the vesting In the crown by B2 Hen. VTII, c. 24." James W. Hawks.

lin, Conn., who printed a genealogy of the family In the Register In April of
that year. He deduced the President's descent from one John FUlmore, mari-
ner, who married, in 1701, Abigail Tllton, and died at sea before 1711. The Eng-
lish origin of this John Fillmore, mariner, has never been definitely ascertained.
Dr. Woodward stated that his researches made It quite probable. If the evidence
is not quite conclusive, that John Fillmore, or more likely his ancestors (origi-
nally from EngUnd), emigrated first to Nova Scotia, and that subsequently John
88 Notes [Jan.
settled in the colony of Massachnsetts. Unfortunately Dr. Woodward did not say
on wliat evidence this theory was based, but from the way in which he refers to
the very eminent family of Filmer of Kent, now represented by Sir Robert Marcos
Filmer, Bart., itwonld appear that he thought tliat the American Fillmores came
from that stock ; but it is unlikely that this is anything more than a guess on the
part of Dr. Woodward. That Filmer and Filmore, or Fillmore, are inter-
changeable forms of the same name is well known. In a biographical notice of
President Fillmore the IlluBtrated London News claimed a Devonshire origin for
his family on probably no better evidence than Dr. Woodward possessed. Possi-
bly this origin may have been suggested by or through Lewis Filmore, a Jour-
nalist engaged at one time on the London Times^ whose ancestors held a respect-
able position at Lympstone in Devonshire. What adds to tills probability is that
there is record of a John FUmore sailing from the adjoining port of Topsham
in the early eighteenth century. He may be identical with the mariner John
Fillmore, but tiiere Is nothing to show It, and so far the English origin remains
unknown.
We have two groups of the name. The Filmers, sometimes Filmore and es-
pecially Finimore, settled In Kent In the 14th century, and the FUmores of Devon
settled there at least as early as the 16th century. Hitherto I have been Inclined
to favor a Devonshire origin for the President*s family, but an entry which I
have just come across, whilst editing the second volume (soon to be issued) of
my Kent Parish Register series^ inclines me to think that after all the President
may come from the Kentish family. The entry In question is : Comfort Filmer
and Mary Crane, married by license at Willesborough, Kent, 5 July 1784.
The significance of this entry lies In the fact that Nathaniel Fillmore, the
President's grandfather, had an uncle named Comfort Fillmore, born 1742, died
1814 ; the latter also having a son Comfort Day Fillmore, bom In 1792. It will
be seen that the American Comfort Fillmore was contemporary with but proba-
bly somewhat senior to the English Comfort Filmer. The adoption of so un-
usual a Christian name Is surely more than a mere coincidence.
Up to the present time I. have thought that this Christian name of the Presi-
dent's great unde belonged to that class of personal names derived from moral
qualities, such as Faith, Hope, Charity, but the coincidence of the use of " Com-
fort " as a Christian name by an English family of Filmer and an American Fill-
more, almost contemporaneously, has led me to luquire if it may not be due to
a desire to perpetuate the memory of some family bearing the name of Comfort.
Though It seems rare, I find that such a surname exists. It Is first alluded to
by Lower, who suggests that It Is a contracted form of the place name Comer-
ford, but it is not even mentioned by either Guppy or Bardsley. However, we
find a few references to the name in the calendars to the wills In the Preroga-
tive Court of Canterbury, which have been printed by the British Becord Society,
Thus we have :
Ambrose Comforte, Battle, Sussex 1661
Blchard Comferett, Newport Pond, Essex
and Bishop's Stortford, Hertfordshire 1688
Elizabeth widow of Thomas Comfort of
Keyston, Huntingdonshire 1626
Thomas Comforte, jun., smith of Keldore
Huntingdonshire 1627
Hlchard Comfort alias Comport, yeoman,
of Whltechapel, Middlesex 1628
Thomas Comforte, yeoman, of Ashe Kent 1628
It Is evident that the Comforts belong to the southeast of England, and it is
obviously possible that In the last named Thomas Comfort of Ashe we may have
an ancestor of Comfort Filmer who married at Willesborough In 1784, and pos-
sibly, too, of Comfort Fillmore who married in America In 1763. It must be
borne in mind that In Kent there are two villages named Ashe, one In the west-
em part of that county a few miles from London, and the other In the north-
eastern part near the Isle of Thanet, about twenty miles from Willesborough.
Though obviously we have here nothing more than a possible clue to President
Fillmore's English ancestry, these brief notes well Illustrate the Importance of
having the leading English records in print. When more Kentish parish reg-
isters have been transcribed and printed, and when the British Record Society
continues the issue of Its calendars of P. C. C. wUls, It will be easier to trace

oat the Comforts and the FOmers, or Filmores, and in showing the connection
of the two families we may yet light upon the English origin of President Mil-
lard Fillmore. W. P. W. Phiujmore.

or Colcott who came to New England, 1630-1, from co. Hants, England. Only
families bearing the Colcord name are included in the body of the book, but lists
of descendants bearing other names are given in the appendix. There is a list
of soldiers of the Revolution from whom descendants of Samuel Colcord may
claim descent, and a Civil War army roll. The volume is provided with a chart
showing lines of descent, and abounds with family portraits and short autobi-

The text of this book is an address delivered at the dedication of a monument
In Wolfville, N. S., to William Coaldwell and Jane Jordan, his wife, who emi-
grated to Acadia after the English took possession. The story of these adven-
turous pioneers is well told and very interesting. The name Cauldwell was ap-
plied to the family In Scotland, Coldwell in England, and Colwell in Ireland. In
this country and Nova Scotia the name has been also written Caldwell. The
The author has compiled the genealogical matter with great care, insisting upon
dates, phices and names in full, and incorporating many biographical notes.
He has made no attempt to include descendants not bearing the family name,
and states that he has been unable to locate some branches. He begs those who
can give additional information to make themselves known to him. The book
is provided with a good index.

Only 135 copies of this fine example of the book-maker's art have been printed.
The reproductions of family portraits and old manuscripts delight the eye,
while the subject matter demands a careful reading. Capt. John Frazier came
from Scotland, and sailed from the port of Boston for twenty years previous to
1775. His sons were merchants of Philadelphia. His descendants are followed
through male and female lines, and the index reveals at a glance the prominent
families with whom they are connected. The West genealogy gives the ances-
try of Anne West, wife of Nalboro Frazier ; the Checkley record the ancestry
of Sarah Ingraham, wife of Capt. John ; and the Zimmerman diary the ancestry
of Isabella, wife of Benjamin West Frazier. A chart is inserted giving the
ancestry of Mrs. William West Frazier, bom Harriet Morgan Harrison.

While searching for material for the first volume of a Fuller genealogy, the
author brought to light much data in regard to the Samuel Fuller family, which
formed the Imsls of this new volume. Beyond the names and dates of birth of
children of Fuller daughters, details of the female lines have been omitted.
After the third generation the sons who had families form heads of fourteen
groups, arranged in order of seniority of the fathers. The supplement gives
new information concerning the descendants of Edward Fuller. Both the main
volume and supplement are indexed, and Mr. Fuller*s painstaking work Is
another valuable addition to the family history of the Pilgrims. The illustra-
tions are excellent, two of the most Interesting being the interior and exterior
views of the church where Dr. Fuller was baptized.

Author, Waxahachie, Texas.
" Every family is a history in Itself and even a poem to those who know how
to search its pages " is one of the quotations scattered through this pamphlet,
and Miss Gkdlaway has felt its truth so strongly that she has put her own per-
sonality as well as that of her kinsfolk into their records. Matthew Oallaway
appeared in Oglethorpe Co., Ga., about 1800. His family went to Alabama, and
their descendants pushed on to Mississippi, Texas, and even to California. The
presswork of the book is good, and the plan followed in the genealogical work
is clear.

This scholarly production, bound in morocco and finely illustrated, suggests
a family bible in size. It would be a convenience to patrons of genealogical
libraries if the index, which occupies two hundred odd pages, referred to pages
and not to numbers designating persons, which run from 1 to 12,670 through
eleven generations. Sections in the index give soldiers of the Civil War, college
graduates, and celebrated people bearing the name. Sixty-two pages are de-
Yot€d to the history of the family in England. Joseph Loomis (Braintree and
liondon, Eng.) came to Dorchester, Mass., in 1638, and the next year went to
Windsor, Conn. It is remarkable that the title to his homestead has never
passed out of the Loomis name. The estate is now occupied by a school which
was founded primarily for the benefit of the descendants of Joseph Loomis.

The descendants of Thomas Martin, through his sons, William, Dabney A.,

names show that information concerning the later generations was obtained by
correspondence with relatives rather than from official records. The families

labored. Thomas Martin was a soldier of the American Revolution, and his
descendants fought, some for the Confederacy and some for the Union, during

We regret that this handsome volume was received too late for notice in our
October number. Daniel Perrin, the ^migr6, was probably from the island of
Jersey, where the name appears as early as 1440. His wife was of French ori-
gin. They were enrolled as " servants " of Governor Carteret, and allotted land
on Staten Island. The genealogy traced from this couple, together with a study
of the name in foreign records, represents years of faithful research. Where
possible, the generations are brought down to the present. The book is finely

T%e Starkeys of New England and allied families^ compiled for Albert Crane,
Esq., by Emily Wilder Leavitt. Press of Springfield Printing and Binding
Co. 1910. 8«> pp. 185, Ulus.
This book, admirable in every particular, is dedicated to the memory of Cla-
rissa Lawrence Starkey, wife of Thomas Crane of Quincy, Mass., New York
City, and Stamford, Conn. She was bom in Troy, N. H., 1886, daughter of
George and Betsey (Lawrence) Starkey. Her ancestry is traced back to the
mother country, and quotations from English records are plentiful. Her pio-
neer ancestors in this country were John Starkey and John Waite of Maiden,
John Lawrence of Groton, Alexander Balcom of Providence, B. I., Rear Admi-
ral Thomas Greaves of Charlestown, Mass., Banfleld Capron of Barrington and
Attleborough, Mass., and Pentecost Blacklngton of Marblehead. Miss Leav-
itf s system is similar to that used in the Bboistbr, and each family record Is
preceded by a table showing the connection with the Starkey line. The bind-
ing, press work, and paper are of the best, and a comprehensive index is added.

Andrew Warde and hia descendants, 1597-1910, being a compilation of the facts
relating to one of tfie oldest New England families, and embracing many fami-
lies of other names descended from the worthy ancestor even unto the tenth and
eleventh generations^ compiled under the direction of the Association of De-
scendants of Andrew Ward by Gborob Kemp Ward, A.M., Secretary. A. T.
de la More, Printing and Publishing Co., Ltd., N. Y., 1910. 4<> pp. 608, illus.
This large volumexontains the names of some fifteen thousand descendants
of Andrew Warde. ' The biographical portion of the book contains in narrative
form the history of several prominent families in the Ward connection, and there
is a chapter upon the Andrew Ward Association. Andrew Ward is first recorded
in Watertown, Mass., whence removed to Wethersfield, Conn., 1687, and later
was a founder of Stamford and Fairfield, Conn. Among his descendants are
the noted family of Lyman Beecher, Gen. Andrew Ward of Revolutionary fame.
Gen. Joseph Wheeler, and many others who have left their impress upon the
history of the United States. The index gives Ward descendants, male and fe-
male ; males and females, other than Ward ; persons, male and female, allied bj
marriage. A single number system, with no reference to previous generations,
makes this elaborate index an absolute necessity.

Alice Street, Keyser, W. Va.
Joseph Watson was bom in Lancaster, Fa., about 1760, of Scotch ancestry.
He settled in Cumberbmd Co., Fa., and married wives of Pennsylvania Dutch
stock. Miss Watson devotes one chapter to him and one each to his sons and
daughters, thirteen in all, whose descendants are scattered through the middle
and far West. The author has been fortunate to obtain much information from
the children of Joseph Watson, only one of whom was living in 1909. In trachig
the younger generations, if unable to obtahi vital records, she gives the last
known address of the person or family under consideration. Blank pages are
left for additional information.
Williams Genealogy, Wethersfield, Cromwell branch, compiled by Murray Ei>-
WARD Poole. Press of the Ithaca Journal, 1910. S® pp. 48.
The first six pages of this pamphlet are devoted to the story of a family of
farmer's boys in Upper Middleton (Cromwell), Conn., who left home to seek their
fortunes in northern New York in the early forties, and became successful in
mercantile, political, philanthropic, and literary pursuits. Josiah, the second
son, cast the deciding vote which ^ve Central Park to New York, and was on«
of the original board of trustees of Cornell University. The emigrant ancestoi
of the family, Thomas Williams, came from Wales to Wethersfield, Conn. The
scheme of members designating diflierent generations and branches is decidedly
original ; but the value of the work would be greatly increased if there wert
an index.

of the region accompanies the article. Article 2 is part of Capt. Mowat*s ac-
count of his experiences in America from 1759 to 1783, the orighud of which is
in the possession of the Maine Historical Society. Article 8 is a reprint of a
pamphlet printed in Bradford, England, 1840, and is made from the only original
copy of the narrative known. This publication is very valuable as it brings be-
fore the American public accounts written from a British standpoint concem-
ixig the Penobscot expedition of Sal tons tall and Lovell, and the relations exist-
ing between England and her Indian allies during the war of 1812.
Proceedings of the Brookline Historical Society at the annual meeting, Jan. 19,

Annual reports, an account of the celebration of the centennial of the birth of
Abraham Lincoln, and a scholarly essay on Gouvemeur Morris by the late George
S. Mann, form the literary chapters of the Proceedings. The president's ad-
dress gives the history of three old houses of Brookline, which were built by
Joseph Sewall, John and Lewis Tappan, and known as the David Hall Rice
house (destroyed by fire, 1909), the Phllbrick and Blake houses. Reference is
made to the preservation of the Devotion house, and general improvements of
the town in 1909. Personal impressions of Abraham Lincoln by William J.
Seaver, who knew him in Springfield, HI., in 1856-7, form an interesting paper
which was delivered at the centennial exercises.

The founding of Cfharlestoum hy the Spraguei. A glimpse of the beginning of the
MassachuaettB Bay eetUement, by Henrt Harbison Sfraoub, A.M. Boston,
Wmiam B. Clark Co., 1910. B^ pp. 39.
This pamphlet discusses the question of date of settlement of Charlestown,
Biass., and contends that the town was settled In 1628, possibly before the ar-
riyal of Endlcott, but at least before the winter of 1626-9. The argument Is
followed by short biographical sketches of the three brothers, Ralph, Richard,
and William Sprague. A copy of the records of Charlestown, written by order
of the town in 1664 by John Greene, after consultation with the oldest residents
then living, is printed verbatim, and a half-tone facsimile of the agreement
establishing town govemment in 1634 is inserted. Mr. Sprague claims that
^* the first settlers of Mlshawam may be said historically to be the real founders
of the first settlement of the Massachusetts Bay Colony and of the capital at
Boston, in the year 1628.*'

Andrews has compiled a directory comprising about 16 per cent, of the popula-
tion of the city of Hartford at that time. A business directory fills about twen-

town, county and private records, military records, including rolls of honor in
the Revolution and Civil War, civil and Industrial history skillfully woven to-
gether, besides portraits of old residents, scenes in Hatfield, England, and in its
namesake in Massachusetts, make the volume a valuable contribution to the his-
torical literature of Massachusetts.
Haverhill town affairs one hundred years ago, compiled by Willlilm F.
Whitcher, Woodsville, N. H. News, Book and Job Print, 1909. 8o pp. 48.
The resolves of a little New Hampshire town meeting could do little toward
preventing the war of 1812, but a perusal of them Imparts the spirit of the
people, which is expressed as follows : ^' While we . . . wholly . . . disappro-
bate the policy of our national administration ... we declare . . . our de-
termination ... to support the Union at all hazard." The tax lists of 1809
contain 21 'J names ; foot notes explain the identity of many taxpayers of Haver-
hill, N. H., at that date, and from a genealogical point of view are quite as
interesting as the town records themselves.

being caused by the construction of the ** Mammouth Road," which was begun
in 1821 and was not settled till 1836. The separation of church and state ms&es

100 Book Notices [Jan.
This attractive pamphlet recites the history of a chnrch which was established
in 1808, at the intersection of the old French road to Chautauqua Lake and the
road from the east to the Western Reserve. For ten years a faithful few kept
their church organization as best they could without a pastor and without a
church building. It was re-organized as the Westfleld Church in 1819. The
first chapter treats of the period from 1808 to 1849, and the second from 1849
to 1908. Other chapters give accounts of the choir, Sunday-school, and other
organizations within the church and society. The illustrations are portraits of
early members, elders, pastors, and others, and pictures of the houses of wor-
ship occupied at various periods. A list of members of the chnrch is appended.

This company from Windham Co., Conn., numbering eighty-nine men who were
in service from 1861 to 1866, lost nine in action, and five in prison. Fifty-six were
wounded, and twenty-two were captured. The story of experiences in prison
and on the battlefield, including the siege of Fort Wagner, is compiled from
letters, diaries, and personal reminiscenses, substantiated by official documents.
In many instances, says the author, this book does not agree with previous pub-
lications. The appendix gives the roster of the company, service, date and
place of birth, and, in case of deceased members, date and place of death ; fol-
lowed by statistics in regard to the company and an index of names and places,

Press Corporation, Cimiberland, Md., 1910. 12° pp. 181, illus. Price ^1.
We have come to the time when we all can give to the great commanders of
both sides the honor they deserve. The soldiers themselves were the first to
recognize the fact. '*• There Is no purpose in this narrative," says Capt. Wood,
'* to refiect upon the valor and worth of the Federal soldier or his leaders. . . .
It was simply a case of Greek meeting Greek, each being worthy of his foe-
man's steel." The author's style is terse and gn^hlc. The book Is a fair, dis-
passionate account of the campaigns of Jackson and his brigade as seen by a
young Confederate officer who participated In them, inspired by admiration for
his l^uler and belief In the justice of the cause he served.

Only those who have attempted similar work can appreciate the labor which
the late Mr. Sturtevant, seconded by Mr. Marsh, put into this book. It Is sad
to think that he did not live to see its completion. Following tributes to Presi-
dent Lincoln, tiie war governors of Vermont, and the commanding officers of
the regiment, is a plain statement of the service of the regiment, supplemented
by short sketches of the lives of the rank and file. Portraits are grouped In
pairs showing the soldier as he looked In 1862 and 1904. The last pages give
the roster of the regiment with the present address or date of death of almost
every man. Space is given to the proceedings of the 18th Vermont Association.
Good paper, binding and presswork add to the permanent worth of the publi-
cation.

DELOBAINE PENDRE COREY
By Chablbi Edwabo Mann, of Maiden, Mats.
Deloraine Pendbe Cobey, historian of Maiden and universally
recognized as her first citizen, died at his home in that city Friday,
May 6, 1910. Mr. Corey was bom in South Maiden, now Everett,
September 4, 1836, the son of Solomon Pendre and Marthar
Slonner (Waite) Corey. His ancestry was interesting. He was
in the seventh generation from William Corey, a freeman of Ports-
mouth, and made a freeman of Rhode Island and Providence Plan-
tations May 18, 1658, the line being William,' William,' Benjamin,'
Benjamin^ (married Prudence, daughter of Solomon and Patience
(Ray) Pendre), Capt. Solomon' (married Charlotte (Delano) Win-
sor), Solomon Pencbre,' Deloraine Pendre.^ Through his grandmo-
ther, Charlotte Delano ( Winsor) Corey, he was descended from John
and Priscilla (Mullins) Alden, the Plymouth Pilgrims, thus : Wil-
liam* Mullins, John and Priscilla' (Mullins) Alden, William and
Elizabeth' (Alden) Pabodie, John and Mercy* (Pabodie) Simmons,
Ebenezer and Mardia' (Simmons) Delano, Joshua' andHopestill(Pe-
terson) Delano, Samuel and Rhoda^ (Delano) Winsor, Peter' and
Charlotte (Delano) Winsor, Charlotte Delano' (Winsor) Corey.
Through his mother, Martha Skinner (Waite) Corey, he was descend-
ed from Maiden's two Puritan captains, Joseph HUls, who made the
first compilation of Massachusetts Bay laws (1648), of which but a
single copy is known to be in existence, and who is supposed to have
given the name of his English home, Mauldon, to Mr. Corey's native
town, and John Waite. One of the chapters in Mr. Corey's " History
of Maiden " is devoted to a discussion of the lives and eminent public
services of these two men. The maternal line is as follows : Joseph'
and Rose (Clerke) Hills, John' (son of SamueP) and Mary' (Hills)
Waite, Joseph' and Mercy (Tuils) Waite, Thomas* and Debor^
(Sargeant) Waite, Thomas* and Mary (Sprague) Waite, Thomas'
and Lydia (Hitchins) Waite, Thomas^ and Hannah (Cheever)
Waite, MartiKa-Skinner' Waite. Through Hannah (Cheever)
Waite, Mr. Corey traced his ascent to Rev. Thomas Cheever, the
first minister of Rumney Marsh (Chelsea^, and his more famous son,
Ezekiel Cheever, the New England scnoolmaster ; also to Capt.
Joseph Cheever who led his company at Bunker Hill and Trenton,
VOL. LXV. 8
104 Deloraine Pendre Corey [April
another Revolutionary sire having been Peter Winsor, a non-com-
missioned officer who was at the surrender of Burgojne. Job Lane,
the builder of the Bell Rock church, where stands Maiden's memo-
rial park and monument, was an ancestor of Mr. Corey, and he in-
cluded eight passengers upon the Mayflower in various lines of
ascent.
Mr. Corey's childhood and youth were spent in the public schools
of Maiden. At the age of seventeen he became a book-keeper in
the hardware business of Flint & Carter, of Boston, and here he
remained thirteen years, becoming a partner of the concern in 1866,
which, under the names of Stratton, Orton & Corey, and Stratton,
Corey & Co., continued the business until the great fire of 1872.
A new firm, Corey, Brooks & Co., was then formed, from which
he retired in 1877 on the formation of the Maverick Oil Company,
of which he soon became treasurer, a position he retained when the
corporation ceased and the business was merged in and continued
by the Boston department of the Standard Oil Company. He re-
tired from active business in 1898.
Mr. Corey's determination to become an authority upon the history
of Maiden must have been formed before he left die public schools
of his birthplace. He wrote the preface to his History, covering
the period from 1633 to 1785, in 1898, and there said that the work
of collecting and verifying facts had been carried on for more than
forty-five years. In 1903 the Vital Records of Maiden were pub-
lished, having been compiled by a commission of which Mr. Corey
was chairman. Certain of the earlier record books were in such a
dilapidated condition that it was necessary to treat them first by the
Emery process for permanent preservation before they could be used,
and then it was found that many pages were partially lost or unde-
cipherable. In this emergency Mr. Corey produced exact copies
of all the entries, made by himself in the closing year of the Civil
War with his characteristic care and accuracy. Many dates were
supplied, as is usual, frt>m the gravestone records in the ancient Bell
Rock Cemetery ; and here again the work of his earlier years proved
useful, for with his son Arthur he had spent many toilsome days in
copying the inscriptions, in frequent instances from stones which
have since disappeared. It is expected that the Maiden Historical
Society will publish these inscriptions from Mr. Corey's manuscript.
Mr. Corey's editing of the Maiden vital records differed from the
usual style in several respects. He published the records of mar-
riage intentions in a separate section of the book, while against each
entry of a birth, marriage or death he placed the figures showing
the page on which it appears in the original record, each feature, of
course, adding greatly to the value of the book. These elements ot
infinite pains to secure accuracy and add to the value of his wo^
appear in even a more marked degree in his History. A printed
collection of the footnotes to that work would be a raluable historic
1911] Deloraine Pendre Carey 105
cal volume in themaelyes, while the narratiye, prepared in his later
life, after years of study had made him absolutely familiar with his
subject, is attractive in matter and easy and pure in style. An old
friend, Daniel L. Milliken, since deceased, wrote of this History in
1903 : ^ For this work he began collecting materials when about
sixteen years of age. That a boy of sixteen should step so far out
of the ordinary track and trend of boyhood thought and action is
certainly remarkable, and of great significance. We believe it to
be without a parallel in American biography. Displaying and culti-
vating the historic spirit thus early, it is easy to understand what
every page of his completed book so clearly reveals, that the pro-
duction of that great work was with him, fram first to last, a labor
of love." Another reviewer said : " The result is a history far
above the average town history in eveiy respect. He has the in-
stinct of a true historian, and the book is a noble gift to the public.
As a picture of life prior to 1785, it is a model.'' A writer in the
American Historical Review said : ** It is entitled to high rank in
die department of local history because of its valuable contribution
to knowledge, and the admirable manner of its execution."
In the April number of the Reoisteb, 1878, Mr. Corey pub-
lished a genealogy of the Waite family of Maiden, which he intended
to be the beginning of a larger history of the descendants of Capt.
John Wayte. A mass of material for this book remains, and this
he was intending to arrange and publish at the time of his death.
His widow feels it to be a sacred duty to have the work completed
and published. In Drake's History of Middlesex county the history
of Maiden is by Mr. Corey, and it is both readable and reliable. In
1891 he published a memorial of his only son, Arthur Deloraine
Corey, Ph.D., which has gone through three editions. His chapter
<m ^Joseph Hills and the Massachusetts Laws in 1648 " from the
Histoiy, was reprinted as a separate pamphlet in 1899. In the
Ifew England Magazine^ vol. xx, pp. 357-378, appears his stoiy
**Two Centuries and a Half in Maiden." His '^Memorial of the
Celebration of the Two Hundred and Fiftieth Anniversary of the
Incorporation of the town of Maiden, Mass.," a volume of over 350
pages, was issued in 1900 ; a memoir of John Ward Dean, A.M.,
originally published in the Rbgisteb, in 1902 ; the vital statistics
of Maiden in 1902 ; and a memoir of William Blake Trask, A.M.,
rqxrinted from the Register, in 1907.
The beautiAil Converse Memorial Library in Maiden is Mr. Co-
rey's monument. For over three decades, from its establishment,
he was president of the board of trustees of the Maiden public librar
ly. To it he gave incessant labor, being found more often at his
desk in the library building in the evening, and at all times during
his later years, than at any other place. The building was the last
woriE of the late H. H. Richardson, and is a memorial to Frank
ESugene Converse, son of the late Hon. Elisha S. Converse, who
106 Deloraine Pendre Corey [April
practicallj placed his wealth at the disposal of Mr. Corey to the ex«
tent that was needed to erect the building, equip it, embellish the
two art galleries with rare paintings, and liberally endow it for its
fiiture n^s. This done, Mr. Corey gave his best endeavor to' the
work of making the library meet the demand of the community for
which it was established. So great was the appreciation of his value
imd special knowledge that he was long a member of the Free Pub-
lic Library Commission of the Commonwealth, holding the office of
chairman until a few months before his death.
Mr. Corey never sought elective office but never refused requests
for public service in other directions. He was a member of the
boaid of Trustees of Public Reservations and one of the trustees
section of the American Library Association, taking particular de-
light in attending the association's annual meetings. He was a life
member of the New England Historic Genealogical Society, a mem-
ber of the American Antiquarian Society, an honorary member of
the New York Genealogical and Biographical Society, and the Som-
erville Historical Society. He was active in the formation of the
Maiden Historical Society, and was many years its president, declin-
ing a re-election at the last annual meeting. He took the initiative
for Maiden's two hundred and fiftieth anniversary celebration and
was its moving spirit. Upon him, as the best fitted man in eveiy
way, fell the duty of preparing the inscriptions which were placed
upon the Bell Bock memorial and similar historic tablets. The
bowlder which stands near the site of the home of Joseph Hills in
Maiden square was his gift, and bears a filial tribute to his worthy
ancestor.
No finer evidence could have been given of the eminent place he
held in the esteem of his fellow-citizens, nor of the hold he had upon
their affections, than the request from leading citizens, made upoii
his completion of thirty years' service as chairman of the public
library trustees, that he accept a complimentary banquet. Unwil-
lingly he consented, and hundreds of Maiden citizens, with distin-
guished guests from abroad, gathered to do him honor. It was a
tribute such as is given few men in private life under any circum-
stances.
Mr. Corey was innately modest. A conviction of public duty
would draw him into the open, but he loved rather the quiet of his
library. His home was a magazine of historic and antiquarian lore,
and he accumulated one of the best private libraries upon these sub-
jects in the commonwealth. The walls of his home, as of the art
galleries of the Converse Memorial library, bear abundant evidence
of his love for and taste in art, and he was equally devoted to music,
as all admitted to his fireside can testify.
On May 11, 1865, Mr. Corey married Isabella, daughter of Dana
and Isabella (Cowdrey) Holden. Their only child, Arthur Delo-
raine Corey, graduated from Harvard university, and received the
1911] Revolutionary Soldiers of York County^ Me. 107
degree of Hi.D. firom the Royal Friedrich Wilhelm university of
Berlin, Germany, in 1891. He died in Maiden August 17 of the
same year. It seemed ever after that the love the stricken parents
had lavished upon him in life was given to all young people in gen-
eral, especiaUy to those who needed it most. Within a year of his
deadly Mr. Corey and his wife joined in meeting the expense of
remodelling the Young Men's Christian Association building in
Maiden and fitting up attractive quarters for a boys' department, to
be a memorial to Arthur Deloraine Corey. Within a few days of his
death Mr. Corey attended nightly meetings held to raise a large sum
of money for the work of the same association, making an initial
gift of many thousands and adding to it firom time to time as sub-
scriptions li^ged. His last appearance in public was at one of these
meetings. While a regular attendant at the First Baptist Church in
Maiden, Mr. Corey was extremely broad in his religious sympathies,
and though everywhere recogniz^ as representing the finest type of
the Christian gentleman, supporting all good causes with voice, pen
and purse, he was in no sense sectarian.
Mr. Corey was elected a member of the New England Historic
Genealogical Society in 1863, and signaUy proved his interest in the
Society and in the Register as a member of the Register Club,
which for many years guaranteed the expenses of its publication,
thus sustaining its work at a critical time. His attitude here was
typical of the man, able, kindly, generous; alert to meet every
crisis, putting his heart, his time and his means into every worthy
cause ; willing to labor for years with no reward other than a knowl-
edge that thereby priceless memoriab of the past were preserved ;
patient when his work was unappreciated, grateftd but modest when
recognition came ; bearing his personal sorrows bravely, and meeting
fisuling health and the summons of the Last Messenger with resig-
nation — this world can never have too many men like him.

THE ENGLISH ANCESTORS OF EDMOND HAWES
OF YARMOUTH, MASS.
By J^MBS W. Hawbs of New York City
It has been known that Edmond Hawes, described as a cutler, late of
London, was among those who shipped about 5 April 1685, to sail from
Southampton in the ship Jame$ for New England,^ and that he arrived in
Boston 8 June 1635, after a passage of about five weeks.^ His subsequent
career is known from the colonial and local records. He was in Duxbury
in 1637, and was chosen constable there in 1642. In or prior to March
1645, he removed to Yarmouth, where he was active in public affairs untO
his death in 1693. He was one of the selectmen and town clerk and
treasurer for many years, and for many years represented the town in die
Colony Court He left one son, John (who married Desire, daughter of
Capt. John Gk)rham and granddaughter of John Howland, the Mayflower
passenger), also active in public affairs in the town, from whom descended
the Haweses of Yarmouth, Chatham, and other towns on Cape Cod.
Nothing, however, was known of his parentage or place of birth until
the writer recently, with the pecuniary assistance of two other descendants
of Edmond, Messrs. William T. WardweU and James Anderson Hawes,
of New York City, employed Mr. Gerald Fothergill of New Wandsworth,
London, to make investigations.^
The records of the Cutlers' Company of London, recently rendered
accessible, revealed that the emigrant was the son of Edmond Hawes of
Solihull (a parish about seven miles southeast of Birmingham), Warwick-
shire, gentleman ; that he bound himself, 14 February 1626-7, to Edmond
Wamett,^ a citizen and cutler of London, for the term of eight years from
2 February preceding, and that he was sworn free cutler 9 December 1634.

Hawes, a descendant of Richard Hawes. of Somerriile, Mass., who is engaged on a
genealogy of the Tarions lines of Massachusetts Haweses.

St. Paul, connty of Essex, dated 21 November 1621, and proved in the
Prerogative Court of Canterbury 2 April 1 622, gives all his freehold and
eopyhold estates, subject to an annuity of £5 a year to the testator's sister,
Anne Morris, to Edmond Hawes, youngest son of Edmond Hawes, of
Solihull, gentJeman.
The testator's sister and William Rastall having entered upon the lands
devised and attempted to suppress the will, Edmond Hawes the younger
(then 14 years of age), by Edmond Hawes the elder, his father and guar-
dian, brought a suit in Chancery, 15 May 1622, against Anne Morris and
WUHam Rastall (an executor of the will), to establish his right, which evi-
dently resulted in his favor. By deed, dated 12 February 1633-4, he sold
his right in these estates to Sir Leventhorpe Franche, Knight, for the
consideration of £250.* The printed parish regbter of Solyhull (Parish
Register Society, vol. 53) shows the baptisms of Edmond and his brothers
and sisters, lliey are all styled Mr. or Mrs.y and described as son or
daughter of Mr. Edmond Hawes of HilMeld or Shelley, the family estates.
The register also shows the marriages and deaths of certain members of
the Hawes line.
The Visitation of Warwickshire made in 1619,' gives the pedigree of
the ^unily for eight generations down to the emigrant, Edmond (Edmond,
William, Thomas, Thomas, Thomas, Thomas, Thomas).
The original of this pedigree, signed by Eklmond Hawes, father of the
emigrant, b in the College of Arms, London. This visitation and Burke's
General Armory (p. 468) g^ve the arms of the family as sable, a chevron
argent between thi^ leopards' faces or. For several generations they had
intermarried with arms-bearing families of Warwickshire and other counties.
HilMeld Hall was rebuilt by William Hawes, grandfather of the emi-
grant, in 1576, and the front remains substantially in its original shape
to-day. Over the front door is the foUowing inscription, containing die
initials of William Hawes and his wife Ursula :
H
W. V.
1576
Bic hosptteSy in Coelo Oives.^
In the parish church is an inscription laudatory of this William.
Femberton (op. cit. p* 42) gives one more generation than the Visitation
of Warwickshire, beginning with Thomas Hawes of Shirley, who purchased
Hillfield about 1311.
A manuscript in the Bridges collection in the Bodleian Library at Ox-
ford, attributed to William Belchier of Northamptonshire, reproduces in-
•criptions existing in the Hawes mansion in Solihull (probably about 1 600
or earlier), giving the marriage of Thomas Hawes in 1465 to Ann Gres-
wolde, with the Hawes arms impaling those of Greswolde (argent, a fess
gules between two greyhounds courant sable), the marriage of Thomas
Hawes in 1527 to EUzabeth Brome, with the Hawes arms impaling those
of Brome (sable, on a chevron argent three sprigs of broom slipped vert),
and the marriage of William Hawes in 1562 to Ursula Colles, with the
Hawes arms impaling those of Colles (gules, on a chevron argent pellet^
four barrulets sable between three lions' heads erased or).

et Heraldica, vol. 2, p. 158.)
J Nicholas Brome, the father of Elizabeth, was lord of the manor of Baddesley
Clinton. He died in 1517, and was buried in the church there, where there was an
inscription to his memory. He was Justice of the Peace for several years, and at one
time Sheriff of Warwick and Leicestershire. The family was an ancient one in
Warwickshire. His great-grandfather, Robert Brome, was a lawyer. His grand-
father, John Brome, was member of Parliament for the Borough of Warwick in 1406.
His father, John Brome, a lawyer, who bought the manor, was Under-treasurer in the
Exchequer in the reign of Henry VI. (between 1422 and 1461), and held other offices.
This John Brome was slain in 1^ on the porch of the White Friars* Church, London,
where he was attending mass, by John Herthill, steward to the Earl of Warwick, in
a quarrel over a mortgage which Hrome held against Herthill. He was buried in the
White Friars' Church, and there was a Latin epitaph inscribed on his tombstone.

Thomas who died in 1568, Thomas who died in 1574, William,
and the latter's son £dmond, are all styled gentlemen in the records
of their time.
The name seems originally to have been Hawe ; at any rate it is
frequently so written in the ancient records, but the emigrant and
his descendants and his ancestors, at least so far back as his great-
grandfather Thomas, uniformly wrote it Hawes. The name was
widely distributed in England in the early part of the 17th century,
and appears not only in Warwickshire and adjacent counties but
' also in London and neighboring counties, and elsewhere.
Besides Edmond, among the early settlers of Massachusetts were
Edward Hawes, who was in Dedham in 1648 ; Richard Hawes of
Dorchester, who came in the Truelove in September 1635 ; and
Robert Hawes of Salem, Wenham, and Roxbury, in which last-
named town he died in 1666. There is no evidence that these were
of kin to each other, and they certainly were not nearly related to
Edmond, although it seems not improbable that Richard was of the
Warwickshire stock.
Respecting the emigrant Edmond Hawes, it may be observed that
Winsor, in his History of Duxbury (p. 81), says the office of con-
stable was one ^^of high trust and responsibility, and none were
elected to it but men of good standing." In fact, in early times,
constables instead of being mere peace officers, as now, had various
other functions, such as acting as collectors of taxes, as coroners in
summoning juries of inquest, and when a call was made for military
duty impressing men for the service.
Swift in " Old Yarmouth " (p. 79), speaking of the early settlers,
says : '^ Anthony Thacher, Edmond Hawes, and Richard Sears were
certainly men of education and social standing in England " ; and
(p. 81) : " Lawyers were not tolerated in Ae Colony, but con-
veyances, wills and other legal writings were executed by Anthony
Thacher, Edmund Hawes and John Miller, according to the
formulas of English practice.**
A school existed at Solihull as early as 1560, when the endow-
ment of certain chantry chapels in the parish church was devoted to
the salary of a schoolmaster. Mr. Home, a graduate of Oxford
University, was master during the boyhood of Edmond Hawes, the
emigrant, who was no doubt educated in this school, where Latin
at that time would have been a principal element in the curriculum.^

At Wobum, Mass., John Nutting married, 28 Aug. 1650, Sarah Eggle-

ing and Blodgett agreed to support their mother-in-law Jane, widow of
Isaac Cole, bhe was bom about 1600, was formerly wife of James Britton,
and evidently still earlier the wife of one Eggleton, by whom she had Sarah

Through the death of William Carver Bates, a member of the Ooancil, the New

cordially responded. He was an especially valuable member of committees, for he
was ready with practical suggestions in the support of which he was able to enlist the
active co-operation of his associates. The thorough manner in which he obtained re*
■nits was an inspiration to his fellow-workers. His cheery personality, bis seal and
his courage made him an associate whom we shall greatly miss.

NOTES
Parkntaok of Gov. Thomas DiTDLEr.—For nearly a century fruitless efforts
have been made to substantiate the statements of Cotton Mather, that Gov.
Dudley was bom in Northampton about 1574, son of C^pt. Boger Dudley, and
that his mother was a kinswoman of Judge NicoUs, although persistent search
was made in the records of the Dudley and Nicolls families, and among the
Pells and Pnrefoys, who were connected with the Nicolls family. In the Rrq-
I8TSB for October, 1895, Mr. H. F. Waters published the will of a John Purefoy,
1579, which mentioned a Thomas Dudley. (See Rboistbr, vol. 49, p. 507, or
Waters' Gleanings, p. 1087.) This will was fully annotated by Mr. Dean Dud-
ley, who furnished an account of the Purefoy family, derived from the Visi-
tation of Leicestershire and from Nicholls*s History of that county, which
stated that Mary Purefoy, sister of this testator John Purefoy, married Thomas
Thome of Tardley, co. Northants, and of their six children ^^ Susanna Thome
m. Bogers.** That this ^^Bqgers" should be Boger Dudley Is proved by the
register of Yardley Hastings* which records, 12 Oct. 1576, the baptism of
Thomas Dudley, son of Boger and Susanna (Thome) Dudley, as has recently
been made public in vol. 1, p. 98, of the '* Stokes Becords ** (1910). The state-
ments of Cotton Mather are thus confirmed.
Dorehetter^ Mass. Joseph Gabdnkb Bartlrtt.
Ancbstby of William Dter.— There are in Abington, Whitman, and East
Bridgewater, Mass., and elsewhere, many descendants of William Dyer, who
with his wife Joanna was the earliest settler, in 1699, of that part of Bridge-
vrater since known as Abington and Whitman. The ancestry of William Dyer
has been unlmown, while hte wife has been called by some Joanna Chard and by
others Joanna Blcknell. His relationship to Dea. Thomas Dyer of Weymouth,
Mass., has seemed probable, but the historians Hobart, Mitchell, Nash, Bev.
Ebenezer Porter Dyer, Bev. Charles Cummings, and others, searched in vain for
proof.
A short distance west of the railroad station at Whitman, William Dyer built
his log cabin, near a fine spring of water, and here Christopher, his son, was
bom in 1701, the first child bom in the town of Abington. He married again,
April 17, 1712, Mary Whitman, and removed to Weymouth, where his wife died
September 25, 1725. He died prior to August 15, 1750, when his will was
probated.
Evidence Is now at hand that this Abington pioneer, WUUam Dyer, was a son
of Christopher, who was the son of William, both early settlers of Sheepscot,
He., where they were massacred by the Indians during King Phillp*s War,
1676-1678. Cushman*s History of Sheepscot says : " William Dyer, who had
been In the region of Saco, was one of three men chosen by the King's com-
missioners as a Justice of the Peace." The names of William Dyer and of his
son Christopher are on a recorded list of those who took the oath of allegiance
at Sheepscot In 1665. Their farms were described In a survey of ^* the demen-
tions of the town necke," so called, by one Nicholas Manning, a surveyor under
190 Nate$ [April
John Ffelmer, who wms an agent for the Dnke of Tork.* Where the Sheepaoot
BiTer dlYides at the Bomt Islands, and the East Branch with Its deep indent»>
tions seeks agahi to mhigle its divided waters with the main sweep of the rtrer
above the faUs, there at the ^^ north ponnt" of the Great or ^^Towne Necke"
William Dyer bnilt his cabin at the month of the river which still bears hia
name, and opposite that other neck known as Dyer's Neck to the present day.
The river and neck are lasting monuments to William Dyer, the pioneer, who
was the first to lose his life (according to Cushman) from Indian hatred in the
general massacre when Sheepscot was pillaged and sacked by the Indians in
1676. ^^ William Dyer was a large, stont man." His death threw his family
and the colony at Sheepscot into despair. Following his death many of the
colonists were killed, and the survivors fled in terror to other settlements, bat
mostly to Boston and vicinity.
William Dyer had two sons — Christopher, the elder ; John, bom about 164B —
and a daughter Mary, who married Samuel BoUes.
Christopher Dyer married first , and had William, John, and Grace
who married, about 1683, John Allicett, or Ellisett, of Boston; he married sec-
ondly Buth , and had Mary who married, in 1698, Samuel Talbot of
Taunton, and Bu^ who married Benjamin Paul of Taunton* and died at Berkley
January 24, 1776, in the 93d year of her age. The widow Buth Dyer married,
October 10, 1692, John Hathaway, and died September 11, 1705, aged 65 years.
At the desertion of the Sheepscot settlement, about 1676, Clulstopher and
John Dyer went to Scituate and Braintree. August 80, 1682, they joined with
other survivors of the refugees in a compact made at Boston to reoccupy their
homes at Sheepscot before September 29, 1688, and the Indian disturbances
having ceased they returned to their abandoned farms. Here, for a few yeart
of comparative quiet with the Indians, they prospered until near the close of
King Philip's War, when Indian hostilities a^n assailed the Sheepscot colony,
and John Dyer was severely wounded, and was taken by his brother Christopher
to Fort Pemaquid, fifteen mUes or more, the nearest place, for sm^ad treat-
ment. About 1688 or 1689 the Indians again attacked and completely broke op
the Sheepscot settlement. Christopher Dyer, with others, was killed.
John Dyer, in his deposition dated January 19, 1732-8, says that his father
William Dyer was killed by the Indians in or about the month of August above
forty-two years since, and that some few months after the death «of his father,
viz. in or about the month of December, his eldest brother Christopher waa
also killed by the Indians ; that Christopher left a son William and other chil-
dren, said William now residing in Weymouth. Esther Boberts of Boston also
deposes to the same effect.
The inhabitants who escaped massacre fied never to return, and Sheepscot
was deserted for thirty years.
Buth, the widow of Christopher Dyer, was hi 1692 living with her two
young daughters, Mary and Buth Dyer, at Braintree, Mass*, where she was
again married at the age of fifty-two to John Hathaway of Taunton, Mass. The
two daughters of Christopher and Buth Dyer went with their mother to their
new home in Taunton, and in time married there. Mary Dyer married Samuel
Talbot of Taunton hi 1698, and Buth Dyer married Benjamin Paul of TaunUm
about 1704. A descendant of this Buth Dyer, B. Paul, Esq., a lawyer of
Minneapolis, Minn., in searching for the previous history of the widow Buth
Dyer of Braintree, found proof that she was the second wife of Christopher
Dyer of Sheepscot, and that he had by his first wife a son William, who was
the first settler at a place called Little Comfort In Bridgewater and Ablngton,
Mass. Mr. Paul prepared a valuable paper, which he presented early in the last
decade, concerning the Dyer-Talbot-Paul and other Taunton families, from
which this paper is largely drawn. The original Is now in the library of the
Old Colony Historical Society of Taunton, of which Col. Seaver is the secretary.
John Dyer, the brother of Christopher, fied from Sheepscot to Bralntnee,
Mass., where he remained for the rest of his life and reared a large family. He
married first Sarah, and secondly Anna Holbrook. Bev. Samuel NUes, Uie
minister of Brahitree, refers to him under date of April 23, 1783, thus : *^ This
day buried John Dyer the aged.** Judge Samuel Sewall also refers to him in
his diary under date of February 1, 1680-1, as follows : ^^ Last night one Dyer
of Bralntrey shot an Indian to death as he was breaking his whidow and at-

Hist. Soc. Coll., vol. 6, and SewaU papers, vol. 2, p. 15*.) John Dyer had to
^ve the Indian's widow six pounds and pay costs, according to the court records
(Records of the Court of Assistants in Mass. Bay, 1630-1692, vol. 1, p. 188).
John Dyer In his will speaks of his small estate as gathered mostly by the
Industry of his wife, ^^ because I have been incapacitated by wounds received
In the Eastern Wars."
Hobarf s History of Abington mentions several Dyers, descendants of Wil-
liam Dyer of Abington, who emigrated to other towns, and that their descend-
ants were numerous.

ana Dr. Ebenezer Alden Dyer of Whitman, Mass., both of whom are of the
seventh generation from Wuliam Dyer, the pioneer of Abington.)

BOOK NOTICES*
By a vote of the Committee on PablioationB the present form of
Book Notioes will be disoontinaed after this number. As in the
Sasty only books giyen to the Society will be listed, and in addi-
on to the ftill tiUe there will appear descriptive remarks when
it is necessary to mention the scope of the contents. In the con-
templated form the Book Notices should be of greater use for
reference, as will be seen by comparison with a similar method
employed by the Buhlishers^ Weekly.
(The editor reqoests persons sending books for notice to state, for the information
of readers, the price of each book, with the amount to be added for postage when sent
br mail. For the January issue, books should be received by Nov. 1 ; for Aprils by
Feb. 1 ; for Jti/y, by May I ; and for October^ by July 1.]

Georob J. Baij>win. Privately printed, Savannah, Ga., 1910. 8« pp. 317,
iUns.
These letters were written by the family and descendants of Adam Leopold
Alexander and his wife, Sarah Hillhouse Gilbert. Those descriptive of life on
a Georgia plantation and in Savannah early in the nineteenth centnry, experi-
ences at boarding-school and at college in the fifties, letters written during
the Civil War, and later those written from far and wide, are all interesting.
The supplement contains the genealogy of the family, which clahns Dntch and
Scotch ancestry on one side, and that of Virginia and Connecticut on the other.

Pilgrim, German. Swiss, and Swedish stock will cause this genealogy to be
sought by many throughout a large territory. Many biographical sketches are
given. There Is an index attached of those bearing the names mentioned on
the title-i»ge, and a complete index Is In preparation.
Genealogical History of the Call Family in the United States, also biographical
sketches of members of the family, by Sdceok T. Call. Emlngton, HI., 1908.
8» pp. 26.
Various branches of the Call family are traced back to the first settler of the
name in America, James Call, whose line Is most carefully followed. He was a
eoldier in the War of the Revolution, being a private in the Vermont Rangers,
and five of his sons also served during that war. A list of books which contain
information regarding the Call family in New England and New York forma a
useful supplement to the pamphlet.

Price, 6 cents a year.
This publication Is devoted mainly to the descendants of William Chase, who

tioned briefly. There is an Ulustrated article In memory of Obedlah Chase, a
minister of the Friends' Church, who died in 1907.

M.A. Printed for private distribution by The St. Catherine Press, Ltd., 8,
Tork BuUdlng, Adelphl, 1909. 4« pp. 92+4, Ulus., chart.
This publication deals chiefly with the English branches of a f amUy which
originated upon the banks of the Deben River in Suffolk, Eng., but considerable
space is given to those of the name who have emigrated to America. More
than half of the book consists of quotations from and discussions of ancient
famUy records (the first mention of the name in England occurring A.D. 1166),
the descriptions of coats of arms, and a list of wUls in the Court of the Arch-
deaconry of Sudbury. The volume unfortunately lacks an index.

In the ship Skidd, which anchored in the Dehiware in 1678, were Thomas
Bevell, Mahlon Stacy and his wife Rebecca Bly. Joshua Ely joined the coloii:f
in 1683. The ancestry of these immigrants has been carefully studied by Mr.
D. B. Ely, who has visited their homes in England and consulted records theM
with quite remarkable results. Ancient coats of arms have been brought to
light and reproduced among the illustrations of the book; also letters written
from New Jersey to those in the home land. Names of plantations in Jersey
have been found to be duplicates of ancestral estates in England. The genei^
logical and biographical parts of the volume are well handled. An abstract of
each chapter and a carefully prepared index add materially to the practical value
of the work.
Aaron French and his descendants^ compiled by Chablbs Newton French.
Chicago, privately printed, 1910. 16« pp. 81.
This little book records the children, grandchildren, and great-grandchUdren
of Aaron French, of New Jersey, 1789-1805. Nine other immigrants bearing the
surname, who arrived in this country previous to 1700, are mentioned and some
account of them is added. The familv records given are, with few exceptions,
compiled from unpublished material, from epitaphs, and tradition. Great care
has been taken to record middle names in full— a commendable feature which
ought to be more generally followed.
The Fulham Genealogy , wUh index of names and blanks for records^ by Yolnet
Sewall Fulham. Burlington, Vt., Free Press Co., 1910. 12<> pp. 291+10,
nius.
This volume gives the record of the descendants of Hon. Francis Fulham,
who died in Weston, Mass., in 1767. Some space is given to genealogical notes
on the Fulham family in England, although the connection with the American
family is not established. The author lays much stress upon family traditions,
traits of character, and personal resemblances, which he has observed In the
early and later generations.
Pedigree of the family of Orazebrookt with ample proofs for every generation.
Part I^from 1035 until the representation in the direct male line became vesUd

Heraldica, vol. 11, p. 268 et seq., London, Mitchell Hughes and Clarke, 1910.
4<> pp. 85, illus.
To Americans who have so long been obliged to content themselves only with
probabilities in regard to their ancestry beyond the Atlantic, this product of the
researches of an English scholar Is an evidence of what can be accomplished by
persistent effort. ^&. Grazebrook has recorded nothing for which he cannot
give good authority. His knowledge of heraldry has materially aided in gath-
ering material and explaining obscure records.
Aria Sonis Focisque^ being a memoir of an American family^ the Harrisons of
Shimino^ and particularly of Jesse Burton Harrison and Burton Norvell Har*

The beautiful family life, the stem adherence to principle as exemplified by
tiie Quaker William Harrison, softened and moulded into more intellecUial
channels hi the later generations, impresses the reader of this story of a gifted
Virginia family. It is told in a graceful, attractive style, and we regret that a
larger edition was not published.

This book is the result of an accumulation of material gathered while pre-
paring a record of a branch of the Barney family, which, though not bearing
directly upon the matter in hand, seemed to demand publication. Besides gene-
alogy, the book contains a roster of the companies of Capt. Isaac Davis and
Capt. John Hayward, both of Acton; an article upon the Davis monument at

This genealogy is the product of the reunions of the Illinois families whose
names appear on the title-page. Their progenitors were bom in Germany,
settled in Maryland in 1770, and later emigrated to Kentucky. Led by a desire
to rear their children in a free state, their descendants became residents of Ohio,
Indiana, and Illinois. The book is profusely Illustrated by family portraits.

Copies of old manuscripts, Bible records, and wills are presented in this
pamphlet with comparatively few comments by the compiler. Jonathan Kear-
aley was called '^ Doctor," and was a druggist or chemist. He refers in his
memoirs to his parents, and states that he came to this country ^* a fugitive,"
tat fails to give his birthphice or his parents' names. Fromioent residents of

by Mtbon Aia>HEW8 Munson. New Haven, Conn., 1910. 8o pp. 89, illus.
In his introduction Mr. Munson gives special credit to Bir. Albert C. Mason,
of Franklin, Mass., who was his coadjutor in the search for material. The
book is printed as a forerunner of a more extended work upon which the two are
engaged. The last few pages are given up to records of Robert Monson of the
Isles of Shoals, and Robert of Scarborough, Me., but no genealogy is printed.
An effort has been made, so far unsuccessfully, to connect these early New

MoBSB Weeks of Evanston, HI. Pittsfleld, Mass., Press of Bagle Printing
and Binding Co., 1907. 8o pp. 56-f-20.
Samuel* Morse (Moses,* Daniel,* William,' Benjamin,* Anthony^ was bom
at Preston, Conn., 1746. His sons emimted to the Western Reserve about
1809 and settled in Wiliiamslleld, Ohio. The family is numerous in that state,
and many of its children have gone still further west. The value of the book
would be increased if names appearing in the text more than once received a
corresponding numl)er of page references in the index.
Frouty (Proute) OeneaXogy, compiled by Chables Henry Pope. Boston, Mass«,
Charles H. Pope, 221 Columbus Avenue, 1910. 8<» pp. vii-f-239, illus.
The name Prouty has been variously spelled, appearing as Proute, Prout,
Proud, Prowte, etc., in the early records of Scituate, Mass., and in England.
The name as now spelled did not appear until the beginning of the nineteenth
oentury. Coincidences of names and dates seem to substantiate the theory that
Bichard Proute, the emigrant ancestor, originated near Bristol, Kng. Th^
genealogy is arranged after the system used in the Reoistbb, and Mr. Pope's
work is so well known that his name on the title-page is a sufficient guaran^
fbr the excellence of the book.
Descendants of Benjamin Bice of Conway, Mass., by Rev. BDwm B. Rice, M.A.
New York, 1909. 8« pp. 85, illus.
Sdmund Rice, the emigrant ancestor of the Rice family, came to America in
li88-9 and settled in Sudbury, Mass. Five children were bom in Berkhamstead,
Bng., and the father seems to have removed from that town to New England.
His son Benjamin was bom at Sudbury May 81, 1640. Three hundred and forty
of his descendants are recorded, following the Une of Benjamin of Conway
(Ebenezer, Ebenezer, Benjamin.). There is an index of those mentioned in
196 Booh Notices [April
the text bearing the name of Bice, with wives' names appended; also namev
of descendants bearing other snmames.
Conway y Mass., and tfie Bice family , by Bev. Edwin B. Bicb, M^., New York,
1909. 8« pp. 49, illus.
Cyras Bice was the first settler in that plurt of Deerfleld set off as the town of
Conway in 1767. He was followed by several of his kinsmen, all descendants
of Edmund Bice of Wayland, Mass. The genealogical part of the pamphlet,
which is arranged like the one noticed above, gives the descendants of Cyras,
Jonas, Joseph, Fhineas, Israel, and Timothy— all residents of Conway. A short
historical sketch of the town of Conway is given in the introduction. The
frontispiece is a photogravure of the homest^ of Edmund Bioe in Wayland
(formerly Sudbury).
The descendants of Jacob Schoff^ who came to Boston, 1752y and settled in Asii-
huvTiham in 1767, with an account of the (German immigration into colonidl
New England, by Wilfred H. Schoff. Philadelphia, 1910. 8« pp. 163, illus.
Jacob Schoff was one of seven Germans who bought from the town of Lex-
ington, Mass., its holdings in Dorchester Canada, now Ashbumham. Besides
the personal history of Schoff and his descendants, the account of the coming
of the Germans to Massachusetts— an almost unknown phase in its history— fi
treated at length. From Ashbumham the emigrant went to Franconia, N. H.,
and thence to Maidstone and Brunswick, Vt. There are military records of
Jacob and his descendants. The genealogy of the male lines is given at length,
but female lines do not extend beyond one generation.

Descendants of Edward Small of New England, and the allied families, trith trac-
ings of English ancestry, by Lora ALTunB Woodbury undsbhill. Cam-
bridge, The Biverside Press, 1910. 8 vols. 8« pp. 1802, illus.
' The genealogy of the Small family proper occupies less than one third of this
publication, but the records of the allied families are carefully traced and occu-
py the rest of the book. These families are Allerton, Hatch, Sawyer, Mitchell,
Jenney, Cooke, Cushman, Stetson, Chandler, Andrews, Boberts, Pratt, Heard,
McKenney, Mariner, Dyer, and Talbot. The good sense of author and publisher
is shown by the presentation of this extended genealogy in three volumes of
moderate size, rather than in one huge folio. Every page is interesting and
shows study of both English and early American records.

/^Iman of Middletown, Conn., 1700, by Fannie Coolet Williams Barboub.
New York, Frank Allaben Genealogical Co., 1910. 8<» pp. 569, illus.
The Spelmans (sometimes written Spilman or Spileman) are traced for fifteen
generations in England to William Espileman, Kt., in the twelfth century. In
America the family is carried through eight generations. The author did mt
Uve to see the publication of her book, and it was left to Mrs. John D. Bocko-
fdler (Laura C. Spelman), to whom Mrs. Barbour dedicated it, to carry the
work to completion. The volume is not a collection of names and dates mer^,
but a family history full of character.

of this genealogy is plain and easy to follow. Pictures of old homesteads of the

ALMON DANFORTH HODGES, JR.
By William T. B. Martin, L.H.D., of Brooklme
In hifl delightful story* of ''An Old New Englander"— a filial
tribute to the memory of hie honored father the late Col. Almon D.
Hodges, whose name he bore — ^Almon Danforth Hodges, Jr., tells
us that his ancestors in New England were all of English stock.
In the Hodges Genealogy, t his direct descent is traced from William
Hodges, the first known member of the tribe, who appeared at
Taunton, Mass., in 1643, and who married Mary Andrews of
Taunton about 1649. But in the collateral lines of his ancestry
appear so many illustrious names of men who have left a lasting
impress on Massachusetts history, that we cannot do better than
quote his own account of his forbears, from the volume cited :
" Among them of course were John and Priscilla Alden of the May-
flower. There were also ministers, seven in number, viz : — James Allen,
Oxford graduate, ejected in 1660 from the English pulpit, minister of the
First Church of Boston for forty-two years, and one of the wealthiest res-
idents of Boston in his day ; Samuel Danforth, member of the second
class which was graduated at Harvard College, pastor of the First Church
of Roxbury from 1650 to 1671, colleague of the Apostle Eliot, astronomer,
mathematician, and poet; Samuel Danforth, son of the last, a Harvard
graduate of the Class of 1 683, minister for forty years at Taunton, Mass.,
where he acquired ' an unbounded influence ' over his townsmen, and where
he was also ^ the principal, if not the only, physician and lawyer ' ; John
Mayo, graduate of an English university, probably Oxford, minister at
Barnstable and at Eastham, Mass., and then for seventeen years, of the
Second Church of Boston ; Nicholas Street, probably graduate of Oxford,
minister at Taunton from 1638 to 1659, and ^en at New Haven ; William
Tompson, Oxford graduate, driven from ministerial labors in Lancashire
over to America, where he became minister of the First Church at Brain-
tree, — a rather gentle character much tinged with melancholy ; and John
Wilson, whose father was a clergyman, and whose grand-uncle was Edmund
Grindall, Queen Elizabeth's Puritan Archbishop of Canterbury. Wilson
was a graduate of Cambridge University, chaplain and preacher for several
years in England, and then the militant first minister of the First Church

in Boston from 1630 until his death in 1667. Elders and deacons of
churches, captains of military companies, selectmen of towns, and holders
of other prominent positions were exceedingly plentiful It was a Yigor-
ous, Grod-fearing stock in all its branches."
Two lines of the Hodges family— one known as the Salem branch
and the other as the Taunton branch — are traced in the ^ Genealo-
gical Record of the Hodges Family in New England," cited above.
The first is given somewhat briefly, but the second or Taunton branch
very fully. The Salem branch descended from George, who died
there in 1709, and who, by a family tradition preserved in both
branches, but for which no documentary evidence has yet been
found, was a nephew of William, the head of the Taunton branch.
William,' bom in England, may have been the one of that name
who first appears in the Salem records as one of the jury at a Court
held there on March 27, 1638. K this be true, he did not long
remain there, but went to Taunton soon after its purchase by the
first proprietors, where his name is the second on the list of its early-
settlers, made out by the town clerk, John Wilbore. His first
recorded appearance there is in August, 1643, on the list of males
between the ages of 16 and 60, able to bear arms. He wa3 pro-
pounded fireeman June 6, 1649, and admitted freeman June 5, 1651,
on which date he was appointed a constable. He was one of the
original stockholders of the first Taunton Iron Works, " subscribing
£20 for a whole share." He married Mary, daughter of Henry and
Mary Andrews of Taunton, and was probably still a comparatively
young man when he died there Apnl 2, 1654. The inventory of
his estate shows that he held considerable property.
His son, Henry,* was captain of the Taunton military company, a
deacon and presiding elder in the church, and held many of the
highest offices in the gift of his fellow-citizens.
His son, Joseph,' was a major in Col. Sylvester Richmond's regi-
ment in the French War, took part in the siege and capture of
Louisburg in 1745, and died fi'om wounds or sickness on his journey
home.
His son, Captain Jonathan,* settled in Norton, where he was a
farmer and clotiiier. He was ensign of the First Norton company
in 1756, ^Captain-Lieutenant" in 1763, and probably a full cap-
tain not long after, as he is styled captain, on the town records. It
seems probable that, like his father, he served in the French wars,
though no record of such service has been found.
His son, Captain Jonathan,* " a man of good substance and of
sober life and conversation," commanded the Norton company on
the west side, from 1798 to 1801. He. served several enlistments
in the Continental army, during the Revolution, and was in Capt.
Hayward*s company at West Point, at the time of Arnold's treach-
ery. He was an assessor at Norton 1799-1801, and a selectman
1803-6, but declined other high positions.
1911] Almon DanfoHh Hodges^ Jr. 209
His flon, Col. Almon D. Hodges/ of Norton, Providence and
Boxborj, wag president of the Washington Bank in Boston , firom
1850 until his death in 1878 ; a life member of the New England
Historic Crenealogical Society, and its president in 1859. He was
one of the founders of the Boston City Guards in 1821 ; for five
years colonel of the 2d Rhode Island Begiment (1828-1833), and
later colonel of the Providence Horse Guards, resigning in 1844,
when he removed to Roxbury. In 1847 he was elected brigadier-
general of the Boston Brigade, but declined the honor. With such
a military record behind lum, we are not surprised to find that four
of his sons — all who could pass the physical examination — were in
the Union Army and Navy during the Civil War, and that two of
them died in the service.
Almon Danforth,Vr., the sixth son of Col. Almon Danforth' and
Martha (Comstock) Hodges, was bom July 16, 1843, in Provi-
dence, R. I. He was educated at private schools in Providence
and Roxbury, fitted for college at the Roxbury Latin School, and
entered Harvard in 1860, where he graduated in 1864 and, received
the Master's degree in 1867. While a student there he enlisted as
a pnvate in Company G, of the 44th Massachusetts Infantry, and
was mustered September 12, 1862; was with his regiment in the
siege of Washington, N. C, and was discharged in July, 1863, on
account of sickness. On July 16, 1864, he was elected and com-
missioned a lieutenant in the 42d Massachusetts Infantry, and hon-
orably discharged by reason of the expiration of term of service
November 11, 1864. He served in various capacities, by detail,
acting as quartermaster, acting assistant adjutant general on the staff*
of the Provost Marshal General, Col. H. H. Wells, and indeed
in about every other position which a lieutenant can fill.
Before leaving the service he was offered a position with rank of
first lieutenant in the regular army, in a specif cavalry troop which
it was proposed to raise by selection firom the men and officers in
the field ; but as Congress failed to authorize the formation of the
coips, he had not the opportunity to accept.
On his return to civil life he entered the Lawrence Scientific School
of Harvard University, " where at the yearly examination he man-
aged to seciu^ the first place in his class." In August, 1865, he
sailed for Europe, and entered the Royal Saxon Mining Academy
at Freiburg, Saxony, where he remaioed until July, 1868, pursu-
ing the study of mining engineering. After completing his course
th^ he made a mining and metallurgical tour through Bohemia,
Silesia, Russia, the Hartz, the Rhioe Provinces, Belgium, France,
England, Scotland, and Wales, returning to the United States in
October, 1868. He spent the next nine months in Boston, doing
some work in the literature of his profession, and then travelled
through the chief mining districts of Colorado, Utah, and Nevada,
reaching San Francisco in September, 1869. While residing there
210 Almon Dan/orth Hodges^ Jr. [July
he was for about eighteen months the editor of the San Frandsoo
Mining and Scientific Press^ which position he resigned to enter
into the more practical exercise of his profession.
From the Secretary's Report of the Class of 1864, to which we
are indebted for material freely used in the preparation of this paper,
we quote the following :
" Although during his studies in Grermany he had worked in every posi-
tion, from that of common miner to the higher grades, yet, as the popular
demand at the time was for ' practical ' and not * £eoreti(^ ' men, it seemed
advisable to commence at the bottom of the ladder. He therefore began
again as common laborer (at $3.00 per day of twelve hours) and worked
up through all the grades to assayer and then superintendent. This oc-
cupied eight and cue-half years of continuous labor — untilJanuary, 1880 —
and included mining and the metellurgical treatment of gold, silver, lead^
copper, nickel and cobalt ores, the manufacture of sulphuric acid, blue-
stone, copperas and borax, and the refining of the precious metals, where-
by an extensive practical experience was gained in California and Nevada.
Such experience necessarily included active political work at times, on the
part of those holding important mining positions. He never held any po-
litical office (except in a nominating convention), and, although laboring
under the disadvantage of being an Independent, never lost but one. fight
of the many in which he engag^.
" Among his more strictly professional victories, he counts the getting
of $60,000 to $100,000 net profits for his compan}', from the treatment of
tailings which assayed only $5.00 per ton, at a time when every other sim-
ilar establishment in Nevada had failed ; and in finding a successful method
of refining the very base bullion produced on the Comstock, which previ-
ously, on account of the very high percentage of copper, had defied all
efforts to refine it on the spot, or to refine it at all widiout mixing it with
other material in order to reduce the proportion of copper.* The refinery
which he built for his process in 1878, at the Omega Mill, near Virginia
City, Nevada, under a contract with the Bonanza firm, was in successful
operation at last accounts."
This same year, in his capacity of Superintendent of the mills of
the Oroya Railroad and Cerro de Pasco Mining Company of Peru,
he superintended the construction, at San Francisco, of an 80-stamp
silver mill, the largest and best work of the kind ever built at one
time up to that date. After its completion and shipment he went
to Peru and visited the Cerro de Pasco and other mining districts,
but the war with Chili putting a stop to all work in Peru, he returned
to the United States in January, 1880.
'< He now took up the branch of Consulting and Reporting Mining En-
gineering, and was engaged in examining and opening mining properties
in various States, and in Mexico. This occupied his time for the next two
years and a half, during which period he made his head-quarters in San
Francisco, where however, he spent but a portion of his time.'*
* This process is fallv described in the Transactions American Institute of Mining
Engineers, vol. ziv (1886).
1911] Almon Danforth Hodges^ Jr. 211
On July IO9 1882, he married Bertha Louisa, daughter of Wal-
demar Robert and Mary Amelia Louisa (von Schoemann) Bernard,
bom August 12, 1863, in San Francisco. Mrs. Hodges was a very
attractive lady, sweet and womanly in her ways, of exquisite taste
in dress, and of infinite tact. But '* the burdens which she willingly
took upon her young shoulders were too great for her strength,'' and
she died at Auburn, Cal., on May 14, 1884, after a brief but happy
married life of less than two years, leaving one son, Frederick
Hodges, bom June 17, 1883. The first six months after his mar-
riage was spent in a visit to his friends in the eastern States, and he
then returned to San Francisco, planning to resume his practice as
an engineer ; but the death of his wife induced him to retire ft'om
the active duties of his profession, and he returned to Boston with
his son, intending to make his ftiture home in or near that city.
While still reftising to engage in general practice, the urgency of
some of his friends and former clients, aided by a natural restless-
ness, led him to make two professional toiurs to Peru, each lasting
about a year. From June, 1886, to May, 1887, as chief of the
Cerro de Pasco Mining Company, he coi\,ducted in behalf of a very
powerful New York syndicate the examination of the Cerro de Pasco
mining district, the most extensive and expensive mining examina-
tion ever made. An accoimt of this work is given in the Transac-
tions of the American Institute of Mining Engineers (vol. xvi :
1888), in a paper entitled " Notes on the Topography and Geology
of the Cerro de Pasco, Pem." In 1888, as chief of the Nueva
Comision Minera, among other matters, he examined and reported
on the Nueva California Placer Claim, Pern, which, being over 41
square miles in area, and 5,000 feet deep (from 10,500 to -15,500
feet above sea level), is the largest hydraulic claim in the world.
He returned from this remarkable work in May, 1889. Some years
later he went again to South America as an expert engineer, to en-
gage in similar duty, which was, we believe, the last important labor
of that character in which he was employed.
In the following years he gave much of his time to the compila-
tion and publication of the third edition of the Hodges family gene-
alogy, and to tracing various collateral lines of his ancestry. His
principal literary work is contained in various mining reports, numer-
ous articles on mining and metallurgy, which have chiefly appeared
in the Mining and Scientific Press of San Francisco, the Engi-
neering and Mining Journal of New York, and the Transactions
of the American Institute of Mining Engineers. He was secretary
of several professional societies of engineers, vice-president of the
California Civil Service Association, and acting assistant adjutant
general of the Department of California G. A. R. He was also a
member of the Military Order of the Loyal Legion, Massachusetts
Commandery ; of the New England Historic Genealogical Society

since 1890, serving on its Council ; and of the Union Club of Bos-
ton for the last twenty years.
To those who were privileged to be numbered among the closer
friends of Captain Hodges, it was a pleasure to listen to his remi-
niscences of some of his exciting experiences during the Civil War,
on the rare occasions when he could be persuaded to relate them.
Decided in his convictions, his position on the questions of the day
was never a doubtful one ; yet he was always considerate of the
opinions of those with whom he might diflfer. Loyal in his friend-
ships, eminent in his profession, a wise counsellor, his memory will
always be cherished as that of a brave and gallant soldier, and a
courteous gentleman.
He died in Roxbury on Monday, November 7, 1910, the result of
a stroke of apoplexy, and his funeral was attended from St. James's
Church on the following Wednesday.
SOME DESCENDANTS OF DEACON JOHN DAM

John* Dam, the second deacon of the First Church in Dover, N. H.,

Wiggins's company in 1633, which company took possession of Edward
Hilton's grant and commenc^ the settlement on Dover Neck, where the
first meeting-house was built of logs that year, a few rods southwest of
where the second meeting-house was built twenty years later. John Hall
was the first deacon, and at his death in 1 675 John Dam was elected to
succeed him. In a petition to the governor by the inhabitants of Dover in
1689, John Dam and Nicholas Dam are among the signers. No further

1911] First Ownership of Ohio Lands 229
Original Pbopristors of GalliopoliSi Ohio
, Following is a copy of a document accomMmying the retnmfi of a sarrey
mnd partition of lands in Ohio found in the GenenI Land Office, Drafting
Division, Washington, D. C, while this writing was in preparation* The
document is a ms. letter folded and stitched in a leather book of field notes
bearing this inscription stamped on the cpyer :
A Survey of the Tract of Land
Granted by Act of Congress
to the French Inhabitants
at Gallipolis.
List of Actual Settlers 6bc.
Rufus Putnam's Letter, dated
12th May 1796«
Superscription on the letter : Oliyer Woloott, Esquire, Secretary of the
Treasury of the United States.
Sir Marietta May 12th 1796
By the papers herewith enclosed you will perceive that the Lands pro-
posed by the Act of Congress of the Third of March 1795 to be granted
to the French inhabitants of Gallioppolis, are surveyed and assigned to the
•everal persons entitled thereto (as I trust) agreeably to the intention of
the afore-mentioned act, and your instructions of the Twenty-ninth of
September 1795.
Mr Martin^^ arrived at Gklliopolis the Second of November and within
m few days after commenced his survey; which which he completed as
toon as could be expected, but from an ill state of health, as he informs
me, he was not able to make the returns before the 25ih ult On re-
dveing them I proceeded to Galliopolis, as soon as I could with conven-
ience, and the several lots were assigned to individuals on the Third in-
stant in maner certified in the list of Drafts, and I beleave the whole
business has been conducted to the satisfaction of all concerned.
Mr Martin states the distence run in executing this survey to be 125
mOes 72 chains & 98 links, and the time neceuirily employed in mak-
ing duplicate plans & certificates 84 days. My agreement with Mr Mar^
tin was to execute the survey at '' the rate of three Dollars permile for
every nule actually run including the pay of assistents and aU expense
of the survey And for the makeing Duplicate Plans with Certificate of the
Courses Distances and boundaries ; two dollars per day for the necessary
time. I have furnished Mr Martin with a certificate of the compensation
contracted for, also that he has executed the surveys agreeably to the Act
of Congress and returned Duplicate Plans Certificates Ac, to me: but
have referred him to the Treasury Department for auditing his accounts
which I presume was your expectation
I am with great respect & esteam

252 James Bourne Ayer [Jt>fy
JAMES BOURNE AYER, M.D.
By Ma&t a. Rovsm amibrb of Boxbury, Mass.
James Bourne Ater waa bom in Boston January 6, 1849.
His father. Dr. James Ajer, a graduate of Bowdoin College in the
class of 1834, had lived for many years in the yicinity of Newfield,
Maine, where he had followed in his father's footsteps in the prac-
tise of medicine. As the field, however, proved but limited, Dr.
Ayer had removed to a more remunerative district on Cape Cod,
where he had first settled at Monument, and later at Sandwich.
This proved a happy move, and resulted before long in the build-
ing up of a thriving practise.
Among his patients at Monument was Martha, daughter of Ben-
jamin Bourne, who subsequently became his wife. Throu^ her
his grandchildren are able to trace their descent from Eichard
Bourne, the missionary who labored for many years among the
Mashpee Indians.
Dr. Ayer had an elder brother, J. CuUen Ayer, who was prac-
tising medicine at the time in Boston. His sudden death in 1846,
just at the opening of what appeared to be a brilliant future, waaan
inducement for his brother to remove from Sandwich and take up
his practise. It was not long before we find the young couple set-
tled on Hanover Street at the old North End, where in 1849 a son,
James Bourne Ayer, the subject of this memoir, was bom to them.
The following year another son, Frederick Bourne Ayer, was bom,
but died when only a little over two years old.
A few years later the husband was forced to sustain an even
greater loss in the death of his young wife at the early age of
thirty-four. Although Mrs. Storms, a sister of his first wife, whom
Dr. Ayer subsequently married, came to preside over his household,
the little boy never entirely forgot his own mother, whom in later
years he was wont to refer to in words of reverence and affection. As
no children were bom of this second marriage, the boy's bringing
up was practically that of an only child. He led a quiet life, and
was much thrown upon the companionship of his father, for whom
he had the greatest reverence.
From 1856 to 1861 he attended the Eliot School, which he left
for the Boston Latin School. All the records seen of him show that
he was a good boy and stood well in his classes. At one time he
received a Franklin medal, an award for good conduct. At the
age of sixteen he entered Harvard College in the class of 1869, and
the year following his graduation began his work at the Harvard
Medical School.
In further pursuit of medical knowledge the young physician
went abroad for several years, where he also leamed the German Ian-
1911] James Bourne Ayer 253
gnage, which proved of value to him throughout his life. It was
during these foreign wanderings that he first made the acquaintance
of Mary E. Farwell, daughter of Nathaniel Whittemore Farwell of
Lewiston, Maine. On his return to Boston in 1875 the renewal
of this acquaintance resulted in their marriage on April 4, 1877.
Dr. Ayer, Senior, who at this time was living at 6 Hancock
Street, vacated in favor of his son, and removed to Boylston Street,
then nearer the medical centre of the city. Here on Beacon Hill
the young couple settled, and Dr. Ayer first entered upon the prac-
tise of m^cine. A few years later he removed to 53 Mt. Vernon
Street, where he lived until his removal in 1894 to 518 Beacon
Street.
Dr. Ayer led a busy, active life, broken only by occasional
trips to Europe, the only form of vacation that ever held any charm
for him. For many years he was busy with private practise, but
later other phases of the profession absorbed more of his time. Be-
sides the contribution of articles to medical journals, he acted as
councillor of the Massachusetts Medical Society for many years,
and for five years was one of the censors. When it was proposed
to erect the new Medical Library in the Fenway he was appointed
treasurer. In 1906 he also acted as treasurer of the committee
chosen to entertain the American Medical Association.
The position he held on the State Board of Insanity from 1902
to 1907 took up much of his time, and during the last few years of
his life the research work he caused to have carried on in relation
to arterio-sclerosis proved of great interest to him.
He had other interests aside from the profession. For many
years he was a constant attendant at Mt. Vernon Church, and he
numbered one of the former pastors. Rev. Samuel E. Herrick, as
his father had before him, among his most intimate friends.
His chief diversion of late years was his increasing interest in
early Boston history, in connection with which hobby he gradually
accumulated a collection of early maps and views of the city. He
collected a mass of material relating to the treatment of the sick and
insane in colonial days, which he hoped some day to put in book
form. The constant changes in the Fenway also greatly interested
him, and during the last year of his life he was endeavoring to col-
lect views showing the development in this particular part of the
city. He was fond of tracing the history and expansion of the
church in the colonies, and in his library of Americana rtre to be
found many sermons preached in olden days by Cotton Mather and
other New England divines.
Dr. Ayer was a member of the Bostonian Society, the Society of
Colonial Wars, the Colonial Society of Massachusetts, and the New
England Historic Genealogical Society, on the Council of which he
served in 1908 and 1909. He often said that this love of early
254 Revolutionai*y Soldiers of York County ^ Me. [ J«ly
New England history was to be the absorbing interest of his old age,
but fate decreed otherwise.
For a year or two before his deHth he had been far from well,
although able to be out almost daily. On the fourteenth of May,
1910, he died peacefully, at the age of sixty-one, and was buried
in the family lot at Mt. Auburn, near the father he loved so well.
Dr, Ayer is survived by his widow, two daughters, Mrs. John E.
Kousmaniere (Mary Farwell Ayer), and Elizabeth Ayer, and two
sons, Nathaniel F. and James B. Ayer.

1911] Origin and Development of Conveyancing 265
A SHORT HISTORY OF THE ORIGIN AND DEVELOP-
MENT OF CONVEYANCING*
B7 Hon. William T. A. Fttzobrald, Register of Deeds for Suffolk County,
Massachusetts
In the beginning of the world the Creator gave to man " dominion over
all the earth, and over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and
over every living thing that moveth upon the earth." The earth, there-
fore, and all things in it became the general property of mankind, and
while the earth continued practically bare of inhabitants each person took
what land he required for his immediate use, and while he occupied it he
acquired a sort of transient property therein, but he had no permanent in-
terest in it, and when he ceased to occupy i^ his neighbor was free to use
it. In other words, his right of possession expired when his actual occu-
pancy ceased.
There was no need of conveyancers in those days. The earth was owned
in common by all the people.
But when the increase and multiplication of the race began in earnest,
it became necessary to establish a more permanent dominion in property,
both real and personal, in order to insure the peace and comfort of society ;
because no man would exert himself to bmld a house and furnish it, or cul-
tivate a farm or raise live stock, if, when he walked out, any stranger might
come in and occupy his house or take his crops or kill his stock. It there-
fore became the custom that a man who occupied land, tilled the soil, and
built a house, was given a right of property therein. In the primitive
days men lived in tents, and when one wanted to move he simply folded up
his tent and moved away, and pitched it again where his fancy suited him ;
but when a right of property was given in lands and buildings, tents and
huts gave way to permanent abodes, and villages and towns came into ex-
istence.
It was found that a house or farm which no longer suited the tastes or
purposes of its owner might be desired by his neighbor, who was willing to
exchange some valuable equivalent therefor, and a traffic in land grew up.
This transfer or conveyance could be considered either as a continuance of
the original possession or right of property, or as an abandonment by the
owner and an immediately succeeding occupancy by the new proprietor.
But no owner had any right to make a transfer beyond the term of his own
life. After the death of the occupant the next immediate occupant could
acquire a title in the property of the deceased, but inasmuch as the adop-
tion of such a system would be likely to cause a grand rush to seize a man's
property immediately upon his death, the presumption arose that a man's
children or his nearest relatives were with him at his death and construc-
tively became the next immediate occupants, and this presumption or cus-
tom gradually ripened into law. If the occupant of the land had no children
or relatives, his servants bom in the house were deemed the next immediate
occupants and became his heirs.
The right to transfer real property by will was not established until
many years after inheritances were recognized, but at length it was found
that the strict rule of inheritance made heirs obstinate and independent and
• Bead before the Society, January 14, 1911.
266 Origin and Development of Conveyancing [July
listless, and also resulted in defrauding creditors of their debts. Conse-
quently statutes were adopted giving land owners the right to dispose of
their property by will. The Englbh Statute of Wills, enacted in 1540,
allowed freeholders to devise all lands held in free and common socage, and
two-thirds of their lands held by knight service tenure. One who held
land by knight service was under the obligation to render military service
to the king, while those who held under the tenure of free and common
socage were expected to yield a part of the profits of the land to the supe-
rior lord. The grants that were made by ^e^ king to the American colo-
nists provided that the lands should be held in free and common socage. A
statute passed in the reign of Charles II abolbhed the tenure of knight
service, and thereupon all freehold estates could be conveyed by will.
The earliest well-defined system of conveying or transferring real prop-
erty in England was introduced by William the Conqueror after his invasion
of England in the year 1066. The conveyance was called a feoffment. It
was a very solemn and public ceremony, supposed to be easily remembered
and provcwi. Every feoffment to be effective was accompanied by what is
known as " livery of seisin." The livery of seisin, or delivery of posses-
sion, was conducted as follows : the feoffor, that is the grantor, together
with the feoffee, entered upon the land or house to be transferred, and
there in the presence of witnesses declared thejconditions of the transfer.
The feoffor then took a handful of earth, or a twig or bough from the land,
and delivered it to the feoffee with appropriate words expressing his inten-
tion to convey the premises, or sometimes, if the subject of the sale was
simply a house, the knocker or latch of the front door was given by the
feoffor to the feoffee, who entered the house alone, shut the door, then
opened it and let in the witnesses and others. If there were several par-
cels of land in one county to be sold, livery of seisin of one parcel would
answer for the whole ; but if there were several parcels located in different
counties, there would have to be as many ceremonies of livery of seisin as
there were counties. This form of livery of seisin was called livery of
seisin in deed or in fact. There was also a livery of seisin in law which
was not made on the land to be conveyed, but near to it or in sight of it
If the feoffor was afraid to enter on the land because, perhaps, he feared
bodily harm from a hostile occupant, he would approach as near the land
as he dared, and pointing it out to the feoffee would say, " I give you yon-
der land, enter and take possession ; " then if the feoffee entered upon the
land during the lifetime of the feoffor it was a good livery of seisin, other-
wise not, unless the feoffee by reason of fear did not dare to enter, in which
event he was required to go as near the land as he dared, yearly, and make
his claim.
Title under livery of seisin was said to pass by '< transmutation of pos-
session.*' Under the feudal system all lands were held under the favor of
the king, who made grants to his vassals, who in turn gave a certain part
of their holdings to their vassals, and so on. Under this system the occu-
pant of land could not transfer it without the consent of his immediate
lord. Gradually it became apparent that the interest of the country would
be better served if the transfer of real property was free and unrestrained,
but it took time to bring about this result.
In the reign of King Henry I a man was allowed to dispose of land
which he himself had purchased, but he was not allowed to sell so much of
it that he might disinherit his children. A statute passed in the year 1290
(Quia Emptores) allowed all persons to sell their lands at their discretion.
1911] Origin and Development of Conveyancing 267
excepting those lords who held their lands immediately from the king, and
even these tenants were relieved of this restriction in the reign of Edward
III upon the payment of a fine to the king. These fines were abolished in
the reign of King Charles II.
CJonveyances were not recorded in England until after the Statute of
Uses, passed in the 27th year of the reign of Henry VIII, 1536. The
Statute of Enrollments was passed by the same Parliament, and required
all contracts of bargain and sale of lands to be in writing and enrolled
within six months after their -delivery, but people still desir^ to avoid pub-
licity in the purchase and sale of lands, and contracts in writing for the*
sale of land were not generally adopted until the Statute of Frauds was
passed in 1676, which provided that no contract for the sale of lands, tene-
ments, or hereditaments should be valid unless the same, or some note or
memorandum thereof, was in writing signed by the party to be charged
therewith, or by some person thereimto duly authorized. Even then, im-
pelled by this desire to prevent publicity. Sir Francis Moore resort^ to
the strategy of making a bargain and sale or lease for a year, which it was
not necessary to record, and then executing a release to ^e bargainee,
which consimimated the seisin in the latter. This form of transfer came to
be known as a lease and release, and was adopted as the most common
method of conveyancing in England until very recent times.
When it became common in England to transfer land by a deed in
writing, it was the custom to make as many copies as there were parties
thereto, and each copy was cut or indented, first like the teeth of a saw,
and afterwards in a waving line, so that each copy would fit into the other
when it was desired to make a comparison to test the genuineness of any
of them. This form of deed was called an indenture. It was probably
copied from the system of indented paper checks that were used as receipts
for paynaents into the exchequer, and which superseded the ancient system
of ** tallies in excheauer," which were made by means of wooden sticks
marked on the edge with notches to indicate the amount paid, while on the
two sides were written the amount, the name of the payer, and the date of
the transaction, the stick being then divided longitudinally so that it could
be fitted together again and read, one-half being reserved in the exchequer,
and the other half being given to the person paying the money. This
rude form continued in existence until 1782, when the office of '* tally cut-
ter" was abolished. Most of the accumulated tallies were burned up.
If the tally cutting system of recording deeds were in vogue, in Suffolk
County to-day, the Registry of Deeds would probably resemble a lumber
yard. The tally cutting system and the indentures were founded on the
same basis as the Chinaman's laundry check, which is torn irregularly, one-
half being given to the customer, and the other half being retained so that
the two may be fitted together when the laundry is claimed.
The origin and hbtory of the system of conveyancing in America is not
definitely settled. The systems of the various English colonies were not
uniform. The earliest English colony established was that of Virginia.
The first known legislation on the point in this colony was a vote in 1626
requiring all sales to be brought to Jamestown and enrolled within a year
of their date. In 1 640 an act was passed providing that a deed or mort-
gage of land without delivery of possession should be adjudged fraudulent
unless entered in some court. The next colony established was Plymouth.
The earliest transfer recorded in that colony was a deed in 1627, which,
instead of being copied in the record book, was written in the book itself
268 Origin and Development of Conveyancing [J'Jy
and signed bj the parties. In 1636 a commission was appointed to alter
and revise the laws. The revision was adopted, and provided that all con-
veyances of land should be acknowledged before the governor and recorded
upon the payment of the fees. This was the origin of the requirement in
America that deeds should be acknowledged before recording.
In the Virginia and Plymouth colonies no force or value was given to
the prior recorded deed, which is one of the chief features of the Massa-
chusetts system.
The Massachusetts system of recording transfers of land was formally
• established by an act or ordinance, as it was called, of the Greneral Court,
October 7, 1640, which provided : " For avoyding all fraudulent convey-
ances, & that every man may know what estate or interest other men may
have in any houses, lands, or other hereditaments they are to deale in,
it is therefore ordered, that after the end of this month no morgage, bar-
gaine, sale, or graunt hereafter to bee made of any houses, lands, rents, or
other hereditaments shalbee of force against any other person except the
graunter & his heires, unlesse the same bee recorded, as is hereinafter ex-
p'ssed." Provision was made for acknowledging the deeds, and they
were to be recorded within the districts into which the Colony had already
been divided for holding courts. The ordinance further provided tliat " it
is not intended that the whole bargaine, sale, &c, shalbee entered, but
onely the names of the graimter <& grauntee, the thing & the estate
graunted, & the date ; and all such entryes shalbee certified to the recorder
at Boston." Magistrates were also appointed to take acknowledgments.
Of course there had been sundry transfers of land in the Massachusetts
Colony before the date of thk ordinance, and certain rules and restrictions
had been made by the various towns concerning transfers. Cambridge, for
instance, became a very exclusive section in 1632, and the town ordered
that any one desiring to sell his land should oiler it first to the town, and
that no stranger should be permitted to buy land without the consent of
the town. Cambridge, however, was not peculiar in this respect, for Dor-
chester in 1 634, and Boston in 1 635, passed similar orders.
On April 1, 1634, the General Court ordered that the constable and
four or more of the chief inhabitants of every town, to be chosen by the
freemen with the advice of some one or more of the next assistants, should
make a survey of houses and lands and enter the same in a book with the
several bounds and quantities by the nearest estimation ; ^' <& shall deliuer
a transcript thereof into the Court, within sixe monethes no we nexte ensue-
ing, <& the same soe entered and recorded shalbe a sutlicient assurance to
eu'y such Free inhabitant, his & theire heires and assignes, of such estate
of inheritance, or as they shall haue in any such bowses, lands, or Franke-
tenem's." This order of the General Court was undoubtedly the author-
ity for the ** Book of Possessions " in Boston and the various towns, upon
which practically all the titles to land within the limits of the old towns
have since rested.
Some of the towns were apparently governed by law-abiding men, and
prepared their books of possession as required by the General Court, but
others were negligent, and on December 3, 1639, the towns of Concord,
Lynn, Weymouth, and Dorchester were fined five shillings each for failure
to comply with the law. Possibly the people of these towns did not take
the law seriously in view of the fact that it was passed April 1st.
The work of preparing the Book of Possessions did not progress to the
satisfaction of the General Court, which, in 1640, passed the ordinance to
1911] Origin and Development of Conveyancing 269
which I have already referred. This ordinance has passed through twelve
revisions and has been slightly amended, but it has remained unchanged in
substance with the exception that the provision making it unnecessary to
record deeds in full has been omitted in the subsequent revisions. " Second
thoughts/' they say, " are best," but it has been said that " it is not true
that second thoughts are best, but first, and third, which are a riper first."
I had the honor of serving as a member of the committee on the part of
the Senate to revise the laws in 1902, and if at that time I had had as
much knowledge, experience, and responsibility in connection with the
transcribing and storing of records as I have now, I think I might have
been tempted to make available the riper first thought of the legislators of
1640, by restoring the provision that instruments need not be recorded in
their entirety, but only as to the essential parts, and thereby obviate the
perpetuation of much of the unnecessary verbiage that is encumbering the
records from day to day.
The requirement that a deed must be acknowledged to entitle it to record
was probably taken from the laws of the Plymouth Colony as they existed
in 1636, and the Plymouth colonists in turn probably copied the customs
of London and the English boroughs, which required an acknowledgment
before the lord mayor or the recorder and one alderman. With the excep-
tion of this provision for acknowledgment, the system of recording deeds
adopted by tlie Massachusetts General Court in 1640 seems to have been
original, and forms the basis of the present system of recording deeds
throughout this country.
The aforesaid act of 1640 authorized three recording districts, one at
Salem, one at Ipswich, and one at Boston. The first recorder of Deeds
for Suffolk County was Stephen Winthrop, whose commission was "to
record things."
Here are some of the "things '* recorded : On the first page of Volume 1,
two letters in cipher, or shorthand, which purport to be copies of answers
to certain inquiries regarding one Hansard Knolles, then minister at Pis-
cataqua, now Dover, New Hampshire, and a copy of a letter written by
said Knolles to retract certain accusations that be had made against the
Massachusetts authorities, among which were that the government " was
worse than the high commission . . . and that here was nothing but op-
pression . . . and not so much as a face of religion."

These are only a few of the hundreds of interesting and peculiar
" things " recorded in the early Suffolk records. A member of the Bar
has recently called my attention to an instrument recorded with the early
Middlesex deeds, containing this language in the description : " southerly
to a stake and stones where Daniel Harrington licked William Smith."
On May 3, 1643, the Massachusetts Colony was divided into four coan-
ties, namely Essex, Suffolk, Middlesex, and Norfolk. Suffolk County in-
cluded Boston, " Roxberry," Dorchester, Dedham, Braintree, Weymouth^
Hingham, and "Nantaskot." Plymouth Colony was consolidated with
Massachusetts in 1692.
In the early days the records did not accumulate very rapidly, and nine-
teen volumes were sufficient to record the instruments left for record
prior to .January 1, 1700, in the Suffolk Registry of Deeds. On Janu-
ary 1, 1800, the number had reached only 193. On January 1, 1850|
the total was 606, but during the last hulf of the nineteentn century
there was a wonderful increase in the number of transfers of real estate,
and on .January 1, 1900, there were 2656 volumes on the shelves. Dur-
ing the past few years there has been a steady growth, and to-day the
copyists are finishing volume 3506 of Suffolk Deeds, so that the growth
for the last eleven years is 244 volumes in excess of that from 1640 to
1850. This tremendous increase in the volume of land records illustrates
what a serious problem will confront posterity in the mere matter of the
storage of the records in the course of a few generations.
The modem Massachusetts method of conveyancing constitutes one of
the most technical, responsible, and at the same time most tedious branches
of the law. It is also one of the least remunerative lines of practice. Con-
1911] Origin and Development of Conveyancing 271
Teyancing requires peculiar skill and very close application to detiul. The
Tery title and the entire value of the land in question is involved in the
work, and yet the amount of work and detail that would warrant a fee of
perhaps $500 in the trial of a comparatively small action of tort, rarely
brings more than $50 when applied to the examination of a title.
When a person buys a piece of real estate he usually feels that he has
paid ail it is worth and perhaps a little more, and he is therefore anxious
to spend as little as possible for the examination of a title, which he con-
siders in the nature of a somewhat unnecessary extra frill, when in point
of iad it is the most important part of the whole transaction, and should
be paid for accordingly. The grantor sometimes tells the grantee that it
18 unnecessary to examine the title because the property has been in his
own family for a great many years, or that he has recentiy purchased the
property and that he had the title examined then by his lawyer, and he
knows it is all right ; but no person should purchase real estate unless the
tide is thoroughly examined by a competent conveyancer, or unless he sat-
isfies himself conclusively that it has been recently examined by such a
conveyancer, and then has it run down to date.
Very few lawyers are good conveyancers. They have not had the neces-
sary experience, perhaps, because they have devoted their time to other
lines where the returns are greater, but if one employs a good lawyer, of
coarse he can be depended upon to obtain the services of a competent con-
veyancer to assist him in the work if he does not feel qualified or has not
the time to attend to it himself ; and one's lawyer can then attend to the
final details of passing the papers and dividing the fee.
I have known a case where the purchaser of a lot of land gave the ex-
amination of the tide to a legal friend who agreed to do it for a small
sum, and a few years after he had built his house it was found that he had
built it on the wrong lot, and was put to considerable expense to remove
it to the proper location.
I have had personal experience with a lot where I was counsel for the
purchaser, and the grantor was an old member of the bar, whose son was
considered a good conveyancer and had examined the tide a few years
before. Upon examination I found that the land had been sold for non-
payment of taxes, and that an attachment made against a prior owner had
never been dissolved.
I have often wished that I could speak to some intending purchaser who
was investing his entire savings in a house and lot, to advise him to get a
conveyancer to assist some inexperienced member of the bar whom he had
employed to examine the title, because I felt certain that he was not likely
to do justice to the examination.
Ridiculous mistakes are caused by carelessness on the part of inexpe-
rienced conveyancers who seem to dislike the work and are anxious to
rash it through as soon as possible. Recently a member of the bar drew
a deed and took the acknowledgment as justice of the peace, and of course
signed his own name, but in the mortgage which accompanied the deed he
signed the acknowledgment with his own first name and the surname of
the grantor.
It is not an infrequent occurrence for the grantee, if a justice of the
peace, to take the acknowledgment of the grantor, which of course is bad
practice and would meet with objection from future tide examiners. I
believe there have been cases where the grantor assumed to take his own
acknowledgment
VOL. LXV. 19
272 Origin and Development of Conveyancing [Jvty'
If these irregularities are noticed when the paper is presented for record
they are called to the attention of the grantee and corrected on the spot,
hut in the rush of business if the instrument is apparently in proper form,
and is sealed and acknowledged, it is received, and irregularities may not be
discovered until the document is spread upon the records. Many of the
irregularites are not fatal to the tiUe, but they all cause annoyance and
sometimes considerable expense to the purchaser in order to clear the
title when he attempts to sell his property.
On a recent trip I met a clergyman who asked me to look up a deed to
his property, which had been left for record a year ago. I took the instnt-
ment from the files to mail it, and found that the property had been con-
veyed to him through a third party who conveyed simply one undivided
third part, so that the grantee, according to the record, owned only one-
third of the house and lot instead of the whole. If the grantee succeeds
in finding the third party he may yet obtain that which properly belongs to
him.
The necessity for a proper examination of a title before the purchase of
property was admirably illustrated by the late Uriel H. Crocker in a verj
interesting* article written for the American Law Review in October 1875,
and since published in pamphlet form, entitled '' The History of a Title ;
A Conveyancer's Romance." After reading this article one will readily
realize how full of pitfalls is the ground which a conveyancer is accus-
tomed to travel, and how extensive should be his knowledge and how great
the care to be exercised in the examination of a title.
Of course the old custom of livery of seisin has long fallen into disuse,
and to-day in Massachusetts the delivery of a deed in writing under seal,
and properly acknowledged, is sufiicient without any other act or ceremony
to convey real estate. The deed must be delivered to the grantee in the
lifetime of the grantor or it is of no effect. For instance, where a grantor
had drawn a deed and kept it in an old chest, and the chest with all its
contents was given to the grantee by will, it was held to be no delivery and
the deed was void.
Leases for more than seven years must be recorded in order to be effec-
tive against third parties. There are on record in the Bemstry of Deeds
for Suffolk County many interesting leases in the neighborhood of the
Comhill district, some of them being for 1000 years, and for most peculiar
rents. For instance, the building at the comer of Court Street and Com-
hill is leased under a thousand year lease for the rental of ten tons of Rus-
sia old sables iron, delivered quarterly on the premises. During the early
life of the lease the rental was paid as called for by the terms of the lease,
but after a while when Russia old sables iron was not commonly used in
this country, the custom grew up to pay the rental in gold. The heirs of
the original lessors some years ago desired to break the lease and demanded
payment in iron as called for by the terms of the lease, knowing that the
tenants could not pay it ; and upon failure to pay, declared the lease termi-
nated. It was held by the Supreme Court, however, that the lessors were
entitled to the iron if they wanted it, but by reason of change in customs
the tenants must be given a reasonable time in which to procure the iron.
In examining the records in the Suffolk Registry it is important to re-
member that prior to the year 1752 the Julian calendar was in force, and
March was the first month of the year, the year beginning on the 25th day
of March ; so that in the old records where the first month is referred U^
it means the month of March and not the month of January.
1911] Origin and Development of Conveyancing 273
Two volumes of the Suffolk records, numbers 113 and 114, have been
missing from the registry since the days of the Revolution. The tradition
is that when the British occupied Boston, Dedham was made the shire town
of Suffolk County, and in moving the records to and from Dedham the
books were lost and have never been found. There Ib another tradition
that these books were taken to Halifax by the Loyalists.
When I assumed the office of Register of Deeds nearly all of the Reg-
ister's time was consumed in writing his name upon records and upon the
recorded instruments to be returned to the grantees. It seemed to me un-
wise to spend so much time writing my long name to attest records that I
knew nothing of personally, because of course I could not find the time to
examine them. I was therefore glad to co-operate with the Register of
Probate and the Recorder of the Land Court in obtaining the passage of
an act which authorized the Register to attest the deeds by the volume
after they are bound, and which authorizes the Register or Assistant Reg-
ister to a^x a fao-sinule stamp of the Register's signature on the original
instrument. The passage of this act afforded the Register much more
time to meet the conveyancers, members of the bar, and public in general,
to hear complaints, listen to suggestions, and supervise the general conduct
of the office.
I believed that there was much danger of fraudulent dissolutions of at-
tachments under the old law and the old system in use throughout the
Commonwealth, and I petitioned the Legislature for the passage of an act
requiring that every dissolution of an attachment on the margin of the
docket should be witnessed by the Register or one of his assistants thereto
duly authorized. The bill was passed, and the act became operative May
23, 1907.
On July 1st, 1907, 1 substituted the use of the typewriter for pen and
ink in writing the records, and I think the change has given general satis-
faction.
The early recorders received everything for which a fee was paid, but
one of the most important duties of the present Register is to prevent the
recording of matters that are not entitled to record. For instance, a party
who has a tract of land in one of the suburbs makes a contract with the
promoter or broker who is to sell the land at auction and get a certain
commission for selling it, but he is somewhat uncertain as to whether the
land owner will carry out his agreement. He therefore tries to record
the personal contract, which would have the effect of using the Register's
office for a collection agency, because no one who examined the title would
recommend it to a purdiaser if there was any such cloud upon it. Such
papers are rejected by the Register after a wordy warfare.
Again, another man brings in a receipt dated forty years ago, reciting
that John Smith has received a deed of land from Thomas Jones, which he
is to reconvey if the said Jones pays the said Smith for legal services.
The instrument is unsealed and not acknowledged. It is simply a receipt
for a deed. It is not entitled to record, but Uie attorney who brings it
in makes a strenuous contest to have it placed on record, and admits that
the reason he does it is that it will cost less to record such a paper than
to pursue his remedy in court.
All kinds of personal requests and favors are asked of the Register to
help out a lame case, but in Uie interest of real property rights the Register
Diust have the courage to say " no " to any unreasonable or improper re-
quest of this kind.
274 Origin and Development of Conveyancing [July
There were one or two imperfections in the law that were forcibly called
to my attention during my first year in office. For instance, it was posgi-
ble under the law for a mortgagor to go to a record book and write a di»>
charge on the margin of his mortgage, forging the mortgagee's name. If
not mscovered, this would deceive a title examiner and lead him to believe
that the mortgage had been discharged. There was nothing in the law
requiring a marginal discharge of a mortgage to be witnessed. I intro*
duced a bill, which was enacted, to have a proper safeguard thrown about
such discharges similar to the law regarding the dissolutions of attach-
ments.
The typewriting system of recording will reduce the space occupied by
the records about one-third, but some system will have to be adopted even-
tually that will not require as much space as is now necessary for record-
ing or registering titles. It is possible that standard forms of deeds and
mortgages may be devised, and that in recording an instniment reference
may simply be made to the grantor and grantee, date, consideration, and
any peculiar conditions of the instrument, and then have it noted that it
was a certain standard mortgage or deed of 'the form prescribed by statute.
Such forms are now in use in some of the western states.
Under the laws of Maryland every Register of Deeds is required to
make an abstract of all the essential details of instruments that are recorded,
and they are sent to the capitol at Annapolis and kept there to preserve
the record of titles in case any registry of deeds should be destroyed by
fire or otherwise. This is a wise provision, which I think should be
adopted in all the states.
The Massachusetts act authorizing the registration of titles to land went
into effect on October 1, 1898, and the Land Court was opened for busi-
ness on the fourteenth of the same month. This law was established for
the purpose of simplifying the transfer of land and making it unnecessary
to have an extensive search of the title when it was desired to make a
transfer.
Under this system a person desiring to have his land registered first files
a petition in the Land Court, which is immediately referred to an examiner
to report on the state of the title. After the examiner's report is received,
notice is sent to the petitioner, and if the title is passed by the examiner, a
notice to all interested parties is issued. The petitioner is required to file
a notice of his petition in the registry of deeds for the district in which the
land lies. The register of deeds in each county is the assistant recorder
of the Land Court for his district
If the court is satisfied that the petitioner is legally entitled to the land,
a decree for the confirmation and registration of the title is entered in the
name of the petitioner, and a copy of the decree is sent to the assbtant
recorder for the district within wluch the land included in the decree is
situated, together with a copy of a plan of the land as finally established
by the court.
The assistant recorder transcribes the decree in a book called the regis-
tration book, and this entry is the ^' original certificate," which is accom-
panied by the plan. An exact copy of the original certificate is then made
by the assistant recorder, and is labelled *' owner's duplicate certificate.**
On the back of the certificate is entered a memorandum of any encuoA-
brances stated in the decree.
When it is desired to transfer registered land, the mntor makes a deed
in common form setting forth the fact that the land is registered and re>

ferring to the certificate number, and surrenders his owner's daplicate cer-
tificate to the purchaser, who brings both instruments to the oj£ce of the
assistant recorder for the district. The instrument of conveyance is prop-
erij stamped and filed, the old certificate of registration is cancelled, and a
new original certificate is prepared and filed ; then a new owner's duplicate
is given to the new owner, an j outsanding encumbrances being noted on
the back of each new certificate.
During the year 1910 there were 48,518 transactions at the Suffolk
Registry of Deeds, and 8906 transactions through the Suffolk Begbtry
District of the Land Court.
BELLS OF HARVAED COLLEGE*
By A&THUB H. Nichols, M.D., of Boston
Member of the Ancient Society of College Youths, London
In the college buildings, to each of which the term " College " was in-
Tariably applied from 1642 to 1720, there have been installed at various
times no less than eight bells, as verified by information, authentic if often
very meagre, that has come down to us. The recent discovery, incident
to Uie excavation for the Cambridge Subway, of ancient foundation walls
has been thought to strengthen the theory that the original College stood
near the site of Gray's Hall, though Goffe's College, of which littie is
known, must have been situated in t]bat vicinity.
While no picture of the first College exists, detailed descriptions of the
floor-plans make it possible to reproduce an approximate design of the ex-
terior, the front of which we know was broken by a turret surrounded by
a •* lanthom." This turret shows the intent to provide a bell, an instru-
ment at that date of prime necessity in every community, clocks and watches
not having come into general use. The following extractf from the '' Rules
and Precepts that are observed in the Colledge," contained in a book en-
titied "New England's First Fruits,'' published in London in 1643, in-
dicate that a bell was already in use :
FIRST BSLL
7. Every schoUar shall be present in his Tutor's Chambers at the 7th houre
in the morning immediately after the sound of the hell at his opening the Scrip-
tares and prayer, so also at the 5th houre at night, and their give an accomit of
his own private reading, as aforesaid, in particular the third, and constantly
attend lectures at the houres appointed. But if any without necessary impedi-
ment shall absent himself from prayer or lectures, he shall be lyable to admoni-
tion, If he offend above once a week.
A second reference to this bell is found in "Certain Orders by the
Scholars and Officers of the CoUedge to bee observed, written, 28 March,
1650:" X
The Butler upon every Stzt Day of the week at noon is to give an account to
every Schollar demanding his weeks sizings in the Buttery & is not bound to
stay above half an hour at Bevers in Buttery after the Tolling of the bell. Nor

on the Sixt Day at Noon shall give In the weeks expenses of tbe whole society.
w«*^ the Butler shall enter into bis Book, according to Costome & sbal keep tbm
Bills from Quarter to Quarter and shew ttiem to the Stewart at bis demand for
bis satisfaction.
A shade of doubt may, indeed, be cast upon the identity of this bell bj
the suggestion that the College may have had the use of the bell of th^
First Farish, with which dose relations had been established from its founda-
tion. In fact one of the reasons for selecting Cambridge as the site of the
College was the proximity of this church, then under the mimstry of
Thomas Shepard,* a clergyman of marked ability and piety, and the first
Commencement was held in this meeting house.
To remove all uncertainty on this point it becomes necessary to show
that the College possessed tibe only bell in Cambridge at the time when
these " Rules and Precepts " were framed. Now it is known that the first
mention of any bell in use in Massachusetts occurs in the History of Cam-
brid^ by Prince, who says that in 1682 *^ the first house for public worship
at ^wtown [Cambridge] with a bell upon it " was built ; and Holmes states
that the town records confirm this statement, and that the town meetings
were called by the ringing of the bell. Gossf adds that for some reasons
not known a drum was afterwards substituted, as mentioned by Edward
Johnson in '^Wonder Working Providence" when on approaching the
town a drum was heard calling the people to meeting. Furthermore, in
1646, the records contain an o^er for the payment oi fifty shillings to a
man for his services to the town in beating the drum.
The explanation of this temporary substitution of a drum is found in ths
history of the Society organized under Thomas Hooker. Of two hundred
Puritans who came over in one company, many had settled in Newtown
and built the first meeting house, which stood on the west side of Water,
now Dunster Street, a little south of Spring, now Mt. Auburn Street. In
the summer of 1636 Mr. Hooker with his entire congregation, one hundred
in number, emigrated to the place in Connecticut ciuled Hartford ; and it
is recorded that they carried with them their bell. Here it is said to hsTe
been in use upon the First Church till it was broken in 1825. It was re-
placed by another, cast in 1827.$
The meeting house in Cambridge thus left vacant was at once bought bj
the Society, which had been organized February 1, 1636, under Mr. Shepard,
known thereafter as the First Church in Cambridge ; but for at least ten
years thereafter the church seems to have been without a bell. That on
the College therefore was the only pne in use during this interval.
A vote of the Parish in 1648 incUcates that the firat bell had then been
replaced by another, for it was ordered :
That there shall be an eight peny ordnary provided by the Townsmen [Select
men] every second munday of the month upon there meeteing day ; and tha%
whoesoever of the Townsmen fail to be present within half an houre of the
ringing of the bell, (which shall be halfe an houre after eleven of the dock) be
shall both lose his dinner and, pay a pint of sacke, or the value thereof, to tbe
present Townsmra.
Tracing further the history of this second church bell, it was removed
to the second meeting house, erected in 1650, upon Watch House Hill,

within the present College Yard and near the site of Dane Hall. Replaced
by a lanzer bell given in 1700 by Capt. Andrew Belcher, it was then voted
by the Town to give '' the little meeting house bell " to the Cambridge
Farms, now Lexington.
8SCOND BELL
In College Book UI is the following entry in the handwriting of the
Treasurer, Danforth. It is uncertain whether the date of this entry is
1658, 1659, or possibly a year or two later, but the reference is unquetf-
tiooably to a second bell.
Mr. John Willet gave to the CoUedge the Bell now hanging in the Turret!.
Subsequent allusions to this bell are found in the College Records, for
example :
At a meeting of the Overseers, in 1660, it was ordered :
4. Whereas (through long experience) former Laws have not been effectuall
for the p^enting of unnecessary dammages to the CoUedge, by the violence or
carelessness of those for whose Accommodation great cost & charges have from
time to time been expended. The Overseers do therefore order, that henceforth
all due care be taken for the p'venting thereof ; And that where any dammage
BhaU be found done to any Study or Chamber inhabited, The piBon or p^'sons
resident therein shall make good the same* and where any dammage is done to
y« Edifice of the CoUedge (excepting by the Inevitable providence of God) to
any vacant Chamber, or Study, the CoUedge fences about the yard, pump, BeU
or clock &c. : the same shaU be made good agahi by aU the Students resident In
the CoUedge at the time when such dammages shaU be done or discovered to be
done A sbaU be duly payd in their Quarter BlUs to the Steward of the Col-
ledge, who shaU repay the same to the Treasurer or oth' such officers of the
CoUedge as shaU be appoynted to disburse the same. (CoU. Bk. Ill, p. 24.)
At a meeting of the Overseers at the President's house, March, 1667 :
The Orders f oUowlng were confirmed untlU the Overseers shall see cause to
take them Into further consideration. (CoU. Lawes. Eadem. Lib. I, p. 87.)
4. The Steward Is from time to time to pay the CoUedge officers, viz. The
Tutors, Cook, Batler & Bellringer, their respective dues, sallaryes, also to allow
the monitors Account. (CoU. Bk. Ill, p. 34.)
18. The Buttlar upon ev^ 6th day at noon shall give an Account to evy
SchoUar demanding his weeks slzlngs In the Buttery ; & he Is not bound to stay
above halfe an hour at breakfast In the buttery, after the Tolling of y« beU ; nor

(CoU. Bk. Ill, p. 36.)
28. The BeU-Rlngers office is to ring the BeU (except for meales) to keep

MASSACHUSETTS HALL, from a Sketch circa 1798
1911] Bells of Harvard College 279
It is to be observed that while the colonists brought from England an
attachment for musical bells they were also accurate in the use of technical
words relating to them, many of which, such as " gudgeons," " baldrick,"
" rowel,"* " brasses," " fillet," " flight," " clapper-clamps," having since be-
come virtually obsolete in this country. Hence their discrimination in the
use of the words " ring " and " toll." For instance, the bell was " rung " to
give preliminary warning of approaching service, recitation or meals ; that
is, it was swung so as to describe a complete revolution, backward and for-
ward, with each impact of the clapper, and the interval between the strokes
was therefore long.
But to give notice that service or recitation was about to begin, or that
meals were about to be served, the bell was " tolled," or swung only over
a small arc of the circle in such a way as to allow the clapper to fall upon
but one side of the sound bow. For deaths and funerals, however, it was
customary to mount the belfry and toll the bell once in fifteen seconds by
means of a rope hitched to the fiight, or lower extremity of the clapper.
In many country towns this custom is still kept up.f
The second Harvard College, built between 1672 and 1680, was a sub-
stantial brick edifice from the middle of which arose a low but capacious
belfry. Inasmuch as this building was designed to take the place of the
original College, then ruinous and pulled down in 1680, it is probable that
WUlet's bell was transferred to the new belfry. Here it is believed to have
done service for nearly a century ; and later was melted or, at least, badly
damaged in the disastrous fire of 1764, which destroyed the library, philo-
sophical apparatus, and personal effects of certain students who occupied
rooms there. President Holyoke, writing to the General Court, declared
the destruction to have been complete and that nothing was saved.]: A
passage from the Corporation Records of January 13, 1764, entered but
a few days before this fire, furnishes final reference to this second bell :
" The Ctovemor came to town about one o'clock, soon after which all went
into the Chapel [Holden] at the tolling of the bell, the President and Corpora-
tion leading/'
THIBD BELL
Massachusetts College, or Hall, was built 1718-20.§ On September 5,
1722, it was " Voted, ^at MT Treasurer be desired to enquire what may be
the cost of a bell and clock proper for the College." On June 2, 1725, it
was " Voted, that the Steward be desired to see the bell for the clock to
strike on, and give an account of the charges thereof ; and that the care of
the clock be committed to him for thb year to keep it going, and that he
•The word *• rowel," a little wheel, apart from its use in heraldry, is now employed
only in connection with a spar.
t The tollinfl^ of the passing bell was a notification of death, while the number of
strokes, called " tellers," indicated the sex. Three times three strokes (3x3) was the
usual number for a male adult: hence the expression **nine tellers make a man,"
which has been corruptly applied to the sartorial craft.
tMrs. Mascarene, daughter of President Holyoke, states in a letter written Janu-
ary 30, 1764 to her husband John Mascarene, who was then in London : " The Col-
lege Bell also is gone." (See ««The College Fire in 1764," by Henry F. Waters, in
the Harvard RegtHer, iii, p. 297.)
§ It is here pertinent to note that coincident with the erection of this dormitoir
there came into use the word •* Hall." employed indifferently with the word *• Col-
lege " until 1780. With the demolition of Stonghton College in that year the term
•• College " as an official designation of buildings became obsolete. For the use of the
words " College " and " Hall," in the United States, see an exhaustive treatment of
toe subject by Albert Matthews, Esq., in Dialect Notes (American Dialect Society) for
Dec. 1900, ii, 91-114, and Harvard Graduates Magazine for December, 1904, pp. 244-246.

The " Prospect of the Colledges in Cambridge in New England/' en-
graved in 1726 by W. Burgis, represents this clock on the western gable
of Massachusetts ; and as the dormitory was topped with neither bel&y nor
bellcote, the bell mnst have been hong behind the dial-panel still affixed to
the brick wall, the rectangular opening on each side permitting to a limited
extent the exit of sound waves.
Dr. Alexander Hamilton, an English traveller, in his itinerarium of 1744
notes his impressions as to the artistic merits of the three College buildings
then standing, and incidentally transmits our last knowledge of this beU^
the fate of which is not known, though it may have been returned to Eng-
land in partial payment for another, as will appear later.
^^ The building upon the left hand as you enter the court [Harrardl is the
largest, handsomest, and most ancient, being about 100 years old ; but the mid-
dle, or front, building [Old Stoughton] is Indifferent and of no taste. That
upon the right hand [Massachusetts] has a little clock upon it which has a very
good bell.**
Dr. Hamilton's estimate as to the superior quality of this instrument can
be accepted as presumably correct, as it was doubtless of English casting,
no bells at that date having been made in the Colonies ; and small bells of
that period of foreign importation were more musical, mellow, and pene-
trating than the products of modem founders. Thus the sweet-toned tre-
bles of Christ Church, Boston, have a carrying power equal to the heavieet
bells of the ring, and under favorable conditions are distinctly audible with-
in the precincts of the College Yard. A bell, such as was connected with
the clock upon Massachusetts, was generally of light weight, suspended
rigid by means of iron straps and bolts from a hem, to be struck by a
hfunmer on its outer sound bow. Not being supplied with headstock oft
wheel it could not be swung.
FOURTH BELL
Harvard Hall was promptly rebuilt after the fire at the expense of the
Province, which assumed responsibility for the loss because the Legislature
had been occupying it for its sessions in consequence of the prevalence ol
amall-pox in Boston. In a new set of '' articles respecting the diet of the
College," adopted by the Corporation, September 10, 1765, reference is
made to a fourth bell, doubtless raised to the newly erected belfry :
*^ 4. The waiters when the bell rings [originally written * tolls '1 at meal
times shall take the furniture of the tables and the victuals at the kitchen hat^
and carry the same to the several tables for which they are designed, immediate-
ly upon which the bell shall toll,"
In prints and sketches of Harvard Hall taken in the latter part of the
eighteenth century a clock dial is shown on the gable over the front en-
trance. Peirce speaks of this clock as still attached to the building in 1831.
It seems possible, therefore, that the dock may have been transferred thither
from Massachusetts.
FIPTH BBLL
The fate of the fourth bell is briefly indicated by an entry of January 15,
1793 : * << Voted, that the President and the Treasurer be a Committee to
procure the recasting of the College Bell lately splits according to their beet
discretion.

This bell, like its predecessors was ordered from England, and' was,
doabUess, of heavier metal, weighing according to the following invoice
2 cwt. 3 q. 10 lb., or 318 ponnds. Juiasmnch as its diameter at the brim
would measure about 24 inches, the cask charged in the invoice would pro-
vide a convenient and safe method of packing for the ocean voyage.
As to the identity of the two bells returned to the founder in part pay-
ment, one was plainly the bell recently broken upon Harvard HaJl, whose
weight was probably about 2 cwt. This would leave 1 cwt. 2 q. 14 lb. for
the weight of a dock bell such as had about that time been removed from
Massachusetts Hall. In view of the total destruction of Harvard Hall in
1764, nothing but the bare walls being left standing, it is inconceivable that
the Willet Bell should have alone escaped destruction and no record be
made of it.

SIXTH BELL
In the autumn of 1807 the fifth bell appears to have been damaged by
vandalism on the part of the students, for on November 23 it was " V oted,
that the President and others be a committee to examine the state of
Harvard Hall, and to consider the most effectual method of securing it
against erruption, make an estimate of the expense, and report to the
(x)rporation." At this same date it was also voted, " that the President
be requested to cause a new bell to be purchased for the College on as
reasonable terms as he can." On January 11, 1808, this Committee made
its report, when it was " Voted, that when a bell is procured for the College,
the President be requested to cause good security to be provided against
all improper access, and that a chain be used, instead of a rope, to ring the
bell as far as [it] is exposed to common access, or below the floor next the
beU." It may be added that this grotesque suggestion of a chain attach-
ment, while affording no protection against trespass, would have made the
proper management of the bell impracticable.
This sixth bell was cast in 1808 by Paul Revere at his foundry, which
had been removed in 1804 from the north end of Boston to C&nUm, this
estate being still in the possession of his descendants. It weighed 434
pounds, as recorded in his old stock book now in the possession of William
B. Bevere.
282 JBeUs of Harvard College [Julj
8ETENTH BELL
Becoming cracked in 1836 this bell was replaced by another the same
year weighmg 450 pounds, cast by George Handel Holbrook of East
Medway, Mass. The Holbrook bell was faultily suspended, and became
broken in 1899, after having been rung for forty-two years by the Teteran
janitor, Mr. Jones. It was preserved for a few years as a relic by Mr.
Jones, but in 1904 it was given by him to the Harvard Memorial Societj
and was broken up, a part of the bronze being used for tablets placed on
HoUis and Holworthy Halls. A model of the old bell was made from the
same metal and presented to Mr. Jones.
It is a current tradition in Harvard, Mass., that a condemned bell onoe
used in Harvard Hall was sold to be placed later on the Baptist church in
tlie parish of Still River. This story finds endorsement in the history of
tlie town by Henry S. Nourse, while the name of the teamster who is said
to have hauled the bell from Cambridge is cited by old residents, who are
even able to describe the pranks by which it was injured. Inasmuch as
legends of this character usually contain an element of truth, the writer,
having traced all facts bearing on the matter, ventures to suggest the
following as the most probable explanation of the error. ^ The bell in
question, which is indeed cracked, bears the inscription '' George Holbrook,
1807," this being the year when the fifth Harvard bell was wantonly
damaged ; and, as a furdier coincidence, it was also the year in which the
first bell of the town was placed upon the Congregational Church, paid for
chiefly by private subscription. If it is assumed then that this damaged
bell was sold for old metal to Holbrook and recast in the same year, it
would not be unnatural that he should attempt to impart a sentimental
value by designating it the bell of Harvard HsJl. But how, then, are we
to account for its appearance at Still River, whose church was not erected
till 1832 ? On this point light is thrown by the inscription on the bell now
in use on the Congregational Church, to wit : " G. H. Holbrook, Medway,
1827," ordered, it would appear, to replace the original bell of 1807 whidi
had become cracked. And if the damage to the latter had not been con-
siderable, or enough to impair materially its tone, it would probably hare
been retained on the chance of disposing of it later for further use. And
this opportunity was certainly presented ^yq years later, when a bell, now
said to have been slightly cracked at the time of purchase, was given in 1832
to be hung upon the Baptist Church in Still River, completed in that year.
If this theory is correct, then the fact that this cracked bell is composed in
part at least of the metal of the Harvard bell may afford some consolation
for the correction of this fiction.
To most living alumni of Harvard the dear-toned, aggressive sound of
Holbrook's bell will have been the most familiar, and it will be of interest
to know that Major George Holbrook acquired the art of bell casting by
serving as apprentice to Paul Revere at his original foundry at the northern
extremity of Boston. He started to cast bells on his own account in
Brookfield, and was establishing a lucrative business when, by the endorse-
ment of notes, he became financially ruined. He was thus obliged to re-
linquish his home and retire impoverished to his native town, Wrentham.
While living there in retirement he managed to secure the contract for
casting a b£ for the new meeting-house in East Medway. The casting
was done in an improvised structure and in the presence of a concourse ox
people in East Medway. His success in turning out a bell of excellent
tone led to the offer of capital and the establishment of a foundry in the
MASSACHUSETTS HALL. 1911

place, conducted by four successive generations until die year 1880.
During this period these bells acquir^ a reputation equal to that of the
best English and Belgian founders, the best known in Boston being tiiose
in the Hollis Street and the West Church towers. No attempt was ever
made at this f oimdry, nor by Revere, to cast a chime, or peal, a matter of
much greater difficidty than making single bells.
EIGHTH BELL
The present bell in Harvard Hall, cast by Meneely & Co. of West Troy,
N. Y., weighs 550 pounds. It was first rung January 7, 1900.
In 1894 an appeal was made through tiie Harvard Graduates' Magazine
for a complete ring of heavy bells to be hung in the tower of Memorial
Hall, designed to facilitate the introduction of scientific change ringing, as
practiced at Cambridge and Oxford Universities. In reponse to this appeal
the entire amount necessary to defray the cost of such a peal was promptly
offered, and from two different sources. The scheme, however, met with
failure, for an inspection of the imposing tower by engineers disclosed the
surprising fact that its walls were too unstable to withstand the thrust of
even light bells swung upon the principle of the pendulum, while all other
requirements of a ringing guild, including a ringing chamber, had been
omitted from the architect's designs.
NINTH BELL
Memorial Hall now contains a clock and fine-toned bell of 3000 pounds,
cast by Van Duzen & Co. of Cincinnati, the gift of the class of 1872,
installed and formally presented after Commencement, 1897.
It has been suggested that the site of old Stoughton might be appropri-
ately marked by the erection of a lofty campanile which would serve for a
clock and peal of bells. Indeed, within a few years a very large sum has
been offered to the College, more than adequate to provide for the con-
struction of such a monument. This offer was, however, declined from the
feeling that any benefit thus accruing to the College would be hardly com-
mensurate with the amount expended.
Shortly afterwards came another offer of a ring of twelve heavy bells as
a memorial of a graduate of the Class of 1847. This generous offer was
likewise made in vain, one of the reasons assigned being that no tower
was available for its installation.
Incidentally, it may be mentioned that change ringing on tower bells has
been systematically taught for several years at Groton School. Hence
there can always be found at Cambridge graduates of this school sufficient
in number to make up a guild of experienced ringers qualified to manage
church bells of any weight.
The data above collated establish the fact, not before noted, that of fif-
teen bells listed below, comprising all known to have been in use in Mas-
sachusetts up to 1680, inclusive, three were hung within the precincts of the
present College Yard, viz. the original College bell, that of Willet, and
the bell of the First Parish Church (Shepard).

French
For many years the descendants of William French of Cambridge, liiass.'
who came to New England in 1635 in the Defence^ have suppos^ that he
was the William French who was baptized in Halstead, Essex, 15 March
1603, son of Thomas French of Stanstead Hall, Essex. We know that
the emigrant had a brother John of Cambridge, Mass., whose estate he
administered in 1645-6. Thomas French of Stanstead Hall also had a
son John. William French is said to have been seventy-seven years of
age when he died in 1681. The names of some of his children agree with
the names of some of Thomas French's children, namely Francis, John,
Elizabeth, and Mary. All these things made the connection seem most
probable, especially as the Harlakendens and Rev. Thomas Shepherd, the
leaders of the party that came in the Defence^ came from EarPs Colne, bat
two miles from Halstead.
Now, however, it appears that this supposed ancestry of William Frendi
is wrong, as the investigations of H. Hutchins French, Esq., of London,
have disclosed. Mr. French has made an extended research into the
French families of Suffolk and Essex, and has kindly showed all hii
papers and has allowed extracts to be made from them. It was he who
lirst called attention to the fact that William, the son of Thomas French of
Stanstead Hall, died in England. The evidence b as follows :
1. Thomas French of Arkesden, Essex, held the manor of Pitley in
Bardfield, Essex. Will proved 1551. Wife Elizabeth, whose
will was proved in 1556. They had daughters Elizabeth, Joane,
and Agnes, and one son
2. Thomas French of Wethersfield, Essex, who married first Eliza-
beth, and secondly Bridget. He inherited the manor of Pitley
from his father. Will proved 1599. He had daughters Mary and
Elizabeth, and one son
8. Thomas French, who married Anne or Agnes, daughter and co-
heiress with her two sisters of John Olxbtead, gentleman, of

as her marriage portion. Thomas French was buried in Halstead
20 Nov. 1613, his will being proved in the Prerogative Court of
Canterbury 27 Jan. 161 3-1 4. He mentions wife Ann, son Thomas,

Stanstead Hall to Sir Oliver Luke for £3500. He had no male
issue, and 17 Feb. 1685-6 a commission was issued to John French,
brother of Thomas, to administer the goods left unadministered by
Palladia, who had died. On 15 July 1639 a commission was issued
to Edward French to administer the goods of Thomas left unad-
ministered by John French, who had died. In 1642 this commis-
sion was revoked and the power given to Thomas Lewyn and his
wife Dorothy Lewyn alias French.
5. William French, bapt. at Halstead 15 Mar. 1603, of St. Dunstans

Drury, Mr. Harmond Johnson, Mrs. Whiteblood, Morgan Symonds.
All the rest of his goods to be equally divided between his brothers
and sisters unmarried, namely John, Edward, Robert, Francis,
Ann, Elianor, Elizabeth, Margaret, Jemima, and Dorothy French.
He mentions the sum of £400 given him by his father. Proved in
the Commissary Court of London 27 Nov. 1637 and 1639 [both

sion to administer the goods was issued to John French of Hal-
stead, County Essex, gentleman, brother of William French late,
while he lived, of the parish of St. Dunstans in the West, London,
bachelor, deceased. [After the death of John French the sister
Elianor probably took out letters of administration.] This dis-
poses of the William and John French, son of Thomas of Stanstead
Hall, and proves that they could not have emigrated to New Eng-

to which belonged a William, bom in 1606. The information re-
garding them in the church registers is slight.

Paine
[In addition to the foregoing material received from Miss French, the
Committee presents the following data in relation to the ancestry of Moses
Paine.]
Among the emigrants from co. Kent, England, who came to New Eng-
land with the company in The Castle in 1638, was Moses Paine (with his
children Elizabeth, Moses, and Stephen), whose forebears had long resided
in Frittenden and vicinity, among them Stephen Payne of Frittenden,
supervisor of the will of Thomas Igylnden in 1497. (See above, p. 175.)
The emigrant's first marriage appears in the Marriage Licenses of Canter-
bury : Moses Paine of Frittenden and Mar. Benison of Tenterden, virgin.
At Tenterden. Hope Tilden of Sandwich, " grosser,*' bondsman. Dated Oct.
12, 1615.
This Hope Tilden was the Hopestill Tilden, brother of Nathaniel Tilden
the emigrant to New England, whose will is to appear in a future num-
ber of the Register. A few years after his marriage Moses Paine ap-
pears in Tenterden, where the registers give the following records of
some of his children and his second wife :

NOTES
It having oome to the attention of this Sooiety that certain
genealogists and publishers have used the name of the Society
in connection with their own enterprises^ the Society again de-
sires to state that it has NO genealogical representatives in this
country or in England, nor is it in any way connected with any
publications other than those that it issues over its own name
at 18 Somerset Street. Boston*

The Committee on English Research desires to state« however,
that although the Society has no official representative in England
the Committee is employing Miss French as a record searcher there
along special lines for the benefit of the Reoistbs.

Meade.— In the Register of Derry Cathedral, recently published by the Parish
Record Society of Dublin, vol. 8, p. 214, is this entry: ** Richard Meade, a
stranger out of New England, buried 16*^ [December 1672] ." This is, probably,
the Richard Meade, son of Richard of Roxbury, Mass., of whom Savage (vol. 3,
p. 191) says: "a mariner, wh. d. bef. 16 Feb. 1679, when the f. took admin, on
the est. but that s. was, I think, not b. at R." (^z. inform, Charles K. Bolton.)
The Editor.
ScAMMON, Atkins.— The Scammon genealogy states that the first known of
Humphrey Scammon was the birth of his son Humphrey at Kittery, 1677, dur-
ing the Indian war ; but before the war, 7 May 1674, Humphrey Scammon, no
addition or residence given, bought land in Wells from Nathaniel Fryer of Great
Island. The will of Mrs. Elizabeth Safjyn, widow of Mr. Peter Lidgett of Bos-
ton, dated 14 Apr. 1682, gives her brother John Scammond £20; brother Rich-
ard Scaramond £20 ; sister Anne Waldron £20 ; cousin Elizabeth Attkins, my
brother John Scammond*s daughter, £40; cousin Jeane Scammond, daughter
of my brother Richard Scammond, £60 ; cousin Hannah Gerrish £5. As brother
John was first named he was presumably the eldcf^t, and my theory is that Hum-
phrey was his son, bom 1640, his sister Elizabeth being remembered by her aunt
in Boston as her namesake. This Elizabeth Atkins I surmise may have been
the wife of Thomas Atkins at the mouth of the Kennebec, who left ten daugh-
ters and no sons, among them Elizabeth, who married Davis ; Anne, who
married Samuel Clark of Marblehead ; Sarah, who married Samuel Gumey of
Little Compton; Susannah, who married Green; Hester, who married
George Pike of Mendon ; Rachel, who married James Berry of Boston ; Abigail,
who married Thomas Washburn of Bridgewater ; and Ruth, who married John
Haskins of Scituate. My conjecture is that John Scammon and his family may
have lived in remote parts, and came out to the older settlements when they fore-
saw trouble with the Indians. It seems hardly possible that so active a man
as the first Humphrey Scammon could have lived about Portsmouth until 84
years old before getting his name into any record. Can anything be added or
detracted from the foreging? « Charles Thornton Libbt.
PorUand^ Me,
HoBiB.— The Reoibtbr, vol. 60, p. 92, gives extracts from the journal of Dr.
Ebenezer Robie during his visit to England in 1726, including a copy of the re-
cords in a Robie family Bible which he found among the relatives in Yorkshire.
Three of the family were marked "went to N. E.," namely: Henry, bom 12
Feb. 1618; Samuel, bom 12 Feb. 1628; and William, bom 26 Apr. 1648. The
first two were brothers, their father being Thomas, and their brother Thomas
was the father of William who was the father of Dr. Ebenezer. Savage saw
this journal, but conjectured that Samuel might have lost his life in the English
wars before getting away for New England. On the contrary, Samuel Robie
lived perhaps thirty years in the vicinity of bis brother in New Hampshire (the
one at Hampton, the other at New Castle), married a sister of the distinguished
councilor and military man. Col. Shadrach Walton, and left probably three chil-
dren. The reason why Savage missed him, doubtless, was that he lived in the
city instead of in the country, on Great Island, the Boston of New Hampshire,
afterwards New Castle, the city of shops and rented houses, politicians and high
life, fort soldiers and taverns, but without the saving puritanism of Boston.
The few mentions of Samuel Robie which Savage failed to observe are as fol-
lows:
294 Notes [July
1665, July, petition signed by Sam Bobie ; his name preceded by George Walton
and followed by Edward West, who also married a daughter of Walton.
1677. The minister's rates for Great Island show Sam Robie taxed at 6 shil-
lings, followed seriatim by Ed Cater, Jno. Clark, Geo. Walton, Sen., *' for the
town," George Walton, Jr.
1678, March 22, an apportionment of the Inhabitants among the tythingmen
named consecutively : Greorge Walton, Sen., Jno. Menseene, Sam Robie, Wld.
Joancs.
1682, May 80. Mr. Roby concerned in a law suit between George Walton and
Henry Crown.
1682, Aug. In the trial of Goody Jones for stoning George Walton by witch-
craft, among the witnesses were " John Shaw, sen^ant of Samuel Roby,"
Thomas Roby who was working on George Walton's boat, Walton Roby,
Samuel Walton and Elizabeth Treworthy.
1686. In the will of George Walton, Sen., he gave forty acres of land to Thomas
Roby, Walton Roby, and Elizabeth Treworthy.
Another grandchild, doubtless, was Mary Roby, who was married at Ports-
mouth, 13 Aug. 1683, to William Tetherly; administered on his estate, 1693;
and was married again to John Lydston. She bore children : Mary, 8 May 1684 ;
William, 3 Nov. 1685; Samuel, 26 Feb. 1686-7; Elizabeth, 20 July 1689; and
others as late as about 1701, or possibly much later, as her younger Lydston
children were not recorded. This Is Inconsistent with her being Samuel Roby's
widow, but quite consistent with her being sister to Thomas Roby who was
working on George Walton's boat In 1682. The fact that she was not mentioned
in her grandfather's wlU Is without significance. There were no small bequests
in his will ; he gave everything to his wife, except certain lands to his diosen
heir, Shadrach, afterwards colonel, and to some unprotected grandchildren.
This Mary Roby could not have been Henry Roby's daughter Mary, as she was
married at Hampton, 22 Dec. 1663, to Samuel Folsom ; and the nephew, William
Roby, was not old enough to be her father.
That this William Roby came first to New Castle, before settling in Boston, is
shown by his deposition, 21 July, 1679, aged 30, to the effect that being desired
by George Walton to take account and value the goods that were in the shop
that his daughter Taprielle kept, etc. Also by his serving as an appraiser with
his uncle Henry Roby on the estate of another of George Walton's daughters,
Martha West. Still another Walton-Roby incident was the conveyance of a honse
and land by George Walton to Henry Roby, 1662.
Incidentally speaking, it should have been noticed long since that Henry Roby's
wife Ruth, who died at Hampton 5 May 1673, was the daughter of William
Moore of Exeter and Ipswich, mentioned in his will, 14 Aug. 1660, and sister of
Capt. William Moore of Exeter. The father and son Moore are made one in
Bell's History of Exeter. Charles Thornton Libbt.

Trkadway, Haynbs, Howe.— That Nathaniel Treadway*s wife, Saflferana,
was the daughter of Walter^ Hajmes of Sudbury, and not of Elder Edwiurd
Howe of Watertown, as stated in 1860 by both Savage and Bond, is the inevi-
table conclusion from a study of the case in its various aspects.
Mrs. Alice Haynes of Semley, WUts, in her wlU dated 2 March 1620-1, men-
tioned her son Walter Haynes, his son Thonuis and daughter Elizabeth, and
Sufferaine and Marie Haynes, her granddaughters (Register, vol. 39, pp. 263-4).
Walter Haynes with his wife Elizabeth, sons Thomas, John, and Joslas
(under 16), and daughters Suifranc and Mary, came in the Confidence in 1638
(Drake's Founders of New England, p. 57).
Both Walter^ Hajmes and Nathaniel^ Treadway had settled in Sudbury by
1639, as they are found hi the list of " 1638 or 1639 ** given by Hudson (History
of Sudbury, p. 26). That they were, comparatively, near neighbors Is seen by
the map of the early settlement (Ibid, p. 76).
The next definite fact regarding Sufferana' Haynes Is found In the wUl of
Walter* Haynes, dated 25 May 1659, ''signed again by mee** 4 March 1668-4,
and proved 4 April 1665, who mentions his wife Elizabeth, his four chUdren
now in New England, John Haynes, Joslah Haynes, Suifrany [or Sufflrans]
Treddoway, and Mary Noyes; also his son-in-law Thomas Noyes, son-in-law
Roger Gourd and daughter Gourd In England, and '' lands In Sudbury which
296 mtes [July
were sometime owned by my son Thomas Haynes** (Middlesex Co. Probate,
No. 10989).
Thomas Noyes of Sudbury, by his will made 20 August 1664 and proved 2 April
1667, left ^^ twenty shillings apiece unto ye two eldest daughters of brother
Tredaway." To each of ms three sisters he left twenty shlUlngs, and, except
two other small legacies, all the rest of his estate, real and personal, to his wife
Mary. Overseers : Mr. Joseph Noyes and Josiah Hajmes. Witnesses : Joseph
Noyes, Mary Treadxoay, Thomas Battelle, Ralph Day. (Middlesex Co. Probate,
No. 16084.)
Savage tells us that SuflTerana* Haynes married Josiah Treadway of Sudbury.
Hudson repeats this statement, changing the residence to Watertown and adding
that in the will of Walter Haynes his daughter Sufferance Is mentioned *'as
behig the wife of Josiah Treadway " (History of Sudbury, p. 83). This state-
ment, however, is erroneous, for the given name of Suffierana's husband does
not appear in connection with her father's will nor the probate of his estate;
nor does Thomas Noyes mention It. Mary Noyes, widow of Thomas, married
secondly Michael Bacon of Wobum, 28 November 1670 (Wobum Marriages,
p. 14). He died 4 July 1683, and she died at Sudbury 1 March 1697-8. Her
estate was not, apparently, settled by the probate court of the county, but she
disposed of some, at least, of her real estate by deeds In 1669, 1670, 1696. and
1697. Neither John' Haynes nor Josiah* Hajmes left any legacy to their sister
Bnfferana or any of her family.
A somewhat extended search. Including probate, land, and court records of
Middlesex and Suffolk counties, the printed records of the Colony, the lists of
early emigrants. Pope's Pioneers, and the lists of early proprietors printed In
the histories of Sudbury and Watertown, falls to reveal any evidence of a
Josiah Treadway In the Colony until the birth In 1650 of Josiah* rNathanlelM.
Nathaniel Treadway was married by 1689 or the early part of 1640, for hii
first child, Jonathan, was bom at Sudbury 11 November 1640. Mary, daughter
of Nathaniel and Suflhiny Treadway, was bom at Sudbury 1 August 1642.
Their daughter Elizabeth was bom at Watertown 3d of the 2d mo. 1646, and
Deborah, 2d of the 6th mo. 1657. The other children, James, Lydla, and Josiah.
mentioned In their father's will, were not recorded. Nathaniel Treadway died
at Watertown 20 July 1689, and Sufferana his wife died there 22 July 1682.
A comparison of the Christian names of Nathaniel Treadway's children wHh
those of the Haynes family Is highly suggestive. Sufferana Hajmes's mother
was Elizabeth. She had sisters Elizabeth and Mary, and a brother Josiah.
The latter named a daughter Deborah, and John* Haynes named a son James.
Nathaniel Treadway of Watertown, with John Haynes, Josiah Haynes. and
Thomas Noyes, all of Sudbury, purchased a tract of 3200 acres of land at
" Quanslcamug - Pond In 1664 and 1666 (Middlesex Co. Deeds, yols. 3, p. 69, and
7, p. 194; Mass. Bay Records, vol. 4, pt. 2, p. 298; Hudson's Sudbury, p. 163).
From the foregoing It Is seen that Sufferana Hajmes was of the right age ;
that she married a man named Treadway ; that she had more than two daugh-
ters by 1664 ; that Nathaniel Treadway lived near her In Sudbury ; that he waa
married to a Sufferana not long after her arrival from England ; that his chil-
dren's names are, with two exceptions, found also In the Haynes family ; that
he had gained the confidence of her brothers and brother-in-law to a degree
which 1^ to their business association twenty years after his removal from
Sudbury ; and that there must have been visiting between the families, as his
eldest daughter was a witness to Thomas Noyes's will.
When It Is also considered that not only can there be found no Josiah Tread-
way, but no other In the Colony of the name except Nathaniel Treadway, until
Nathaniel's sons were bom, It seems almost superfiuous to consider the Howe
statement at all.
Elder Edward Howe of Watertown made his will 18 June 1644, giving to
Nathaniel Treadaway about thirteen acres of land, an equal interest with Mrs.
Margaret Howe ye ^' Anne Stonne ye wife of John Stonne of Sudbury ** in the
wlers and In money due from Mr. Thomas Maybe w, and, after his wife Marga-
ret's death, whatever estate, real or personal, might be left, except that *' Anbe
Stonne shall haue one third part of all the Cattle ** (Suffolk Co. Probate, vol. 1, p.
81; Register, vol. 8, p. 77).
Widow Margaret How of Watertown made her will ** The eight of the Second
1647." It was proved 18 December 1660, before which time she had become
1911]
Ifbtes 297
Mrs. George Bunker. She gftve one half of her whole estate to Nathaniel
Treadaway, one third to John Stone, and one sixth to her sister Mary Rogers,
widow, and her children John and Elizabeth Rogers in England, if living at
time of her decease, otherwise this sixth to be di^ded by Tr^ulway and Stone,
three fifths to the former and two fifths to Stone. (Middlesex Co. Probate,
No. 12074.)
In neither of these wills is Nathaniel Treadway called son or son-in-law,
while Sofferana Is not even alluded to in either ; nor is Ann Stone's relationship
to either Howe expressed. Several deeds are recorded in which some of the
land received by Nathaniel Treadway under Howe's will was disposed of. It
is described as ^^ land which Sometime was Eider Howe's," ** land commonly
Called by ye name of Hows field," and ^* land originally granted to Elder How
of Watertown." On 4 July 1728, Josiah Treadway of Charlestown sold **all
my right ... in Common or undivided lands in the Township of Watertown
. . . that is to Say the right of M' Edward How formerly of said Town given «
by him (with his other Estate) in his last will ... to my father Nathaniel
Treadway and by him conveyed to me" (Middlesex Co. Deeds, vol. 29, p. 102).
Whether Natlianiel Treadway and Ann Stone were brother and sister and
Edward Howe was their unde, or the kinship was more remote, or they were
his wards, may later be settled, but at present it is matter for speculation only.

Page.— Bond's History of Watertown, p. 883, states that Samuel' Page, son
of Samuel' P&ge, went to South Carolina. The following deeds and wills prove
that It* was Samuel' Page^^ son of John* and Faith Cp""g»^f) ftff**] who went to
South Carolina, tliat he iuaFTmU lirlci!, lUUT a large family and, returning to Qro-
ton, finally settled at Lunenburg with most of his children.
In vol. 16 of the Middlesex Co. Deeds are three deeds filed on the same date,
a June 1718, and followhig each other in the book. The first (p. 811) : " Jojjg
Page 6?tTroton, Middlesex Co. husbandman do give to my loving son SoiSuS
Page of Groton ... a five acre right lying ... in Groton . . . first for his
houselot fifteen acres bounding Southerly on the land of John Longley, Norther-
ly upon my own land, easterly upon the Country Highway, Westerly upon tiie
Town Comon. Nextly five acres lying upon ye River, bounded upon ye river
Westerly, Southwardly by the land of Samuel Davis, Northwardly and East-
wardly by my own land, and Thirdly Three acres of Intervale lying upon tiie
West side of the river bounding by the land of Deacon Lawrences, Southward
and Northward by my own land Westward by the Town Comon eastward by the
river. . . [other pieces mentioned] . . . and I the said Samuel Page do receive
this the above written as my full portion given me by my honored Father and
. . . bind myself . . . not to molest the abovesald John Page . . . for any
more of his estate without the s'd John Page my honored father sees just cause
for to give It to me by Will or Deed," etc. Signed by John Page, Sr., and Sam-
uel Page, 18 Jan. 1698.
Second deed (p. 811) : Samuel Page of South Carolina, formerly of Groton,
Mass., and Nathaniel Lawrence of Charlestown, sell to Stephen Holden of Groton
land in Groton, 5 June 1718.
Third deed (p. 812) : " Samuel Page Senr of South Carolina ... for and in
consequence of £88 8s. paid by Joseph Sanderson of Groton "... sells to him
*^ a five acre right lying and being in Groton as f olloweth, First the houselot
of fifteen poles wide, the whole length of the Lott, bounded Southerly upon
land of John Longley, Northerly on Und of John Page, easterly on the country
Highway, Westerly the town Comon . . . also five acres . . . bounded W . .
upon the river, S . . by land of Samuel Davis, N . . and E . . by lands of John
Page " [etc., for all other pieces mentioned in the first deed] . Signed by Samuel
Page 80 Apr. 1718.
This Samuel Page married first a daughter of Nathaniel Lawrence, probably
Sarah Lawrence ¥mo deceased before her father, as in his will in 1718 he leaves
a bequest to son Samuel Page (Lawrence Genealogy, vol. 1 7, p. 1 8) . By the word-
ing of the will of Samuel Page I should judge the following children belonged to
her : Samuel, bom 1692, John, Joseph, Jonathan, William, Nathaniel, and David,
and perhaps the daughter Sarah. On his return from South Carolina he settled
at Lunenburg, but entered the births of two children on the Groton records, viz.
Elizabeth and Daniel. On the Lunenburg records he entered these children with
298 Ji^otes [July
the rest of his family, and at this time he had a wife Martha. Children on rec-
ord: Elizabeth, bom 28 Mar. 1719; Zachariah, bom 10 Apr. 1721, died 1721;
Daniel, born 10 Aug. 1722 ; Martha, bom 31 May 1725, died 1728 ; Benjamin, bom
12 Oct. 1727 ; Thomas, bom 6 Sept. 1780. In 1740 the death of John Page, son
of Mr. Samuel Page, at Jamaica is recorded '' Being there on ye Spanish expe-
dition." His wife Martha died in 1746, and he married thirdly, 9 July 1747, Sarah
Parce of Leominster. He died on 7 Sept. 1747. His will (Worcester Co. Pro-
bate, vol. 2, p. 666), proved 3 Nov. 1747, is peculiar in the order of the naming
of the children. It would seem that the children by the first wife had already
received property from him, because he starts with specific bequests to the sons
of Martha, mentioning first ^^ son Daniel, son Thomas,** his daughters ''^ Heirs
of dau. Sarah Fams worth dec^d,** ^' dau. Elizabeth Parker,'* then '' goldheaded
cane to son Samuel Page,*' and ^^ all the residue to be divided between my sons
Samuel Page, Joseph Page, WUliam Page, Nathaniel Page, and David Pi^ge,"
with reservations for wife Sarah. Sons Jonattian and Nathaniel Page, executors.
All the sons, with the exception of Samuel Jr., settled with the father at Lu-
nenburg. Samuel Page, Jr., returned to Charlestown, and married, 20 May 1719,
Susanna Page. He lived there for some years, but settled finally at Medford.
He died in 1749, and his age at death makes him bom in 1692, so that he must
have been the eldest son. In his will he mentions, besides his family, his prop-
erty at Medford, Charlestown, and Lunenburg. It would seem probable from
this data that Samuel Page, Sr.,'s first wife, Sarah Lawrence, died in South Car-
olina, and tliat he married his second wife there.

leave his goods there he might, but your Subject would not become his Pay-
master for that the said Gibbs must expect his money in England from the Com-
pany in London. About a year ago Gibbs came & said he had not received the
money for the goods left In New England. Gibbs has commenced a suit agahist

Eugenics and Genkalogy.— The attention of all genealogists Is called to the
recent establishment of the Eugenics Record Office at Cold Spring Harbor, Long
Island, N. Y., by the Eugenics Section of the American Breeders' Association.
This office has for Its object the study of the inheritance of mental and physical
traits In the human family, and while the data required Is largely of a biological
nature it is believed that there Is a close connection between its work and that
of the genealogies, and co-operation is sincerely offered and earnestly solicited.
It is hoped that it may be possible to establish a reference library of current
genealogies whlcrv wlU be of great value In connecting links and in verifying
and extending pedigrees, and any contributions to such a library will be grate-
fully received. The office also solicits correspondence and collaboration, and
cordially Invites any who are Interested to pay a personal visit to it and learn
further of the work. Address C. B. Davenport, Secretary.

Salvage frcm the Fire in the New York State Librart, Albaxt
Books ■
From the 450,000 printed books which were destroyed with the New York
State Library in the fire of March 29, there were saved no more than 10,000
volumes. About one-third of this salvage was from the general reading and
reference room and comprised the standard cyclopedias and sets, partial <»*
complete, of the more important general periodicals. The other two-thirds of
the salvage was from the collections on local history and genealogy. Exclusive
of general works on United States history, regimental histories, church histories
and manuals, the collections in local history and genealogy comprised about
15,000 volumes— 7000 genealogies, 8000 state, town and county histories. Per^
haps one-third of these were saved— 4000 volumes of the local history and 1000
Individual genealogies. The loss In the latter subject was complete in the de-
partment of vital records, church registers, heraldry, and genealogical periodi-
cals. The local history saved consisted principally of material relating to New
York. New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Most of the books on Counectlcot,
Massachusetts, and all of Bhode Island were totally destroyed. It is probable
that when the final counting is made the salvage in this department will be
rather less than indicated by the above figures, for many of the boolu counted
with the salvage will prove to be so badly burned, or odd volumes of sets, that
it will be either impossible or unwise to rebind them.
The salvage is being rapidly catalogued. This will have been finished by June
1. At that time active efforts will be began to rebuild the collections. To this
end, the Library will be glad to have the help of all who are interested in these
subjects, and gifts will be welcomed from every direction. As the salvage la
so considerable, it will be well to ascertain first from the Library whether con-
templated gifts are needed. Lists of books sent to the New York State Library,
162 State St., Albany, N. Y., will be examined with care and promptness. It
is to families, or publishers of genealogies and items of local history, that the
Library gratefully acknowledges so much help in making its collection pre-
eminent in the past, and because of this assistance it looks to the same sources
with confidence for material help in its restoration.

WILLIAM CARVER BATES
By Chables Sionbt Ensign, LL.B., of Newton, Mms.
William Carver' Bates was born in Hanover, Mass., May 25,
1838, and died in Newton, November 6, 1910. His father was
Rufiis,' who married Huldah Keith. The paternal line is Gamaliel,*
Clement,* Joseph,* James,' and Clement' Bate of Hingham, 1635,
descended from John Bate of Lydd, co. Kent, England, who died
there in 1522, and also from Robert Carver of Marshfield, 1638.
His maternal ancestry was from Experience Mitchell of Plymouth,
1623, and Bridgewater, and Rev. James Keith, who came in 1660
and in 1665 was the first minister settled in Bridgewater, and Col.
Edward and Major Thomas Mitchell. Experience Mitchell came
to Plymouth in the Anne in 1623, and was undoubtedly the son
of Thomas, an original member of the Separatist Church in London,
which removed to Amsterdam and settled there before the Pilgrims
went to Holland. This Thomas Mitchell was bom about 1566.
His first wife, Maria , died before May 9, 1606, and he then
married Margaret (Williams) Dickens at Amsterdam, May 9, 1606.
She was the widow of Christopher Dickens, also a member of the *
London Separatist Church, and who also went to Amsterdam.
Various searchers of the Amsterdam records have read this name
Digchin, Diggins, Thickens, Uochin, Urchin.* Mr. Bates was also
descended from Richard Warren, Francis Cook, and Gov. William
Bradford, who came in the Mayflower in 1620.
He was educated in the district school of Hanover, and at the age
of twelve entered its academy, where he remained until the autumn
of 1854. Fond of biography, history, and travels, and a keen ob-
server, he was regarded in after life as a well educated man.
His business life commenced in the store and family of John C.
Calif of Gloucester, where he remained two years. ' On January 1,
1857, he became a clerk in the dry goods house of Houghton,
Sawyer & Company of Boston.

308 William Carver Bates [Oct.
At the beginning of the Civil War he enlisted, April 9, 1861, in
Co. G from Concord of the Fifth Regiment, M. V. M., under
Capt. George H. Prescott. Captured in the first battle of Bull Run,
July 26, 1861, he was confined in the prisons of Libby and Rich-
mond, Va., for two months. New Orleans, La,, four months, and
Salisbury, N. C, four months — in all ten months.
Retiring from service, he married in Hanover, April 14, 1863,
his schoolmate Emma Barstow, of good ancestry, bom in Scituate
June 15, 1837. Their children were three boys, named Rufus
Carver, William Haviland, and Wilfred Barstow, and three girls,
of whom the last survive, and are actively engaged in educational
work in New York City.
Soon after his marriage Mr. Bates became a member of the firm
of Holmes, Bates and Nichols, commission merchants in Boston,
who transacted a large business in the British Provinces, the Weet
Indies, and South America. During his mercantile career he trav-
elled in the British North American Provinces, the British Weet
Indies, the northern coast of South America, British Guiana, Vene-
zuela, Honduras, the Bahamas, and Bermuda.
Having retired from mercantile business, after serving as com-
missioner at the New Orleans Exposition in 1884, he entered into
the service of the Mutual Life Insurance Company of New York,
in which he remained until his death.
In 1866 the family removed to Newton, and became identified
with its civic and church life. Connected with Grace Episcopal
Church, he faithfully served its corporation and church in various
capacities, and at his death was the oldest member of the corpora-
tion, having been elected April 13, 1868.
Mr. Bates was very active in the erection in 1876 of the Eliot
Terrace at Nonantum (Newton), in commemoration of the locality
where John Eliot preached the gospel to Waban and his tribe of
Indians, October 28, 1646, and the founding and donation to the
city of the " Eliot Fund " of three hundred dollars, the income ftt>m
which is expended annually in prize essays on historical subjects
written by pupils of the Newton public schools. He was elected a
member of the Newton Common Council in 1889 and 1890. At
the celebration of Newton's Centennial, June 17, 1876, he presented
a portrait of Col, Joseph Ward of Revolutionary fame to the city
with an historical address.
He was connected with many clubs, societies, and associations of
prominence, among which were The Young Men's Christian Union
(life member) ; Boston Mycological Club (charter member and vice-
president) ; Boston Chess Club (a director) ; Charles Ward Post,
No. 62, G. A. R., Newton; Massachusetts Association of the
Prisoners of War ; Hunniwell Club, Newton ; Tuesday Club, New-
ton, before which he read some seventy-three papers; Newton
Natural History Society (charter member and treasurer) ; and the
old Bridgewater Historical Society (life member) .
1911] William Carver Bates 309
Mr. Bates was frequently called upon for lectures and addresses
before private and public organizations, among which was that at
the Hanover Academy in 1858 on "The Outer and Inner Life";
•* Return from Rebel Prisons," in 1863, in Hanover, Gloucester, and
Abington ; the historical address at the 1 50th anniversary of Hano-

Day address in Newton in 1876, and in Hanover in 1908 ; the pre-
sentation of the Eliot Memorial in 1876 ; the dedication of the
Hanover Free Public Library in 1907, for which he had provided
the Hanover Alumni Fund ; the anniversary of the Boston Chess
Club in 1907 ; and the Bostonian Society.
He edited a imique volume named " Stars and Stripes in Rebel-
dom," consisting of compositions read at their meetings by his
fellow-prisoners, and which upon his release were brought away
under the cover of a canteen. Also the following monographs :
" Rambles in the Tropics," "Venezuela and British Guiana," *' Creole
Folk-Lore," and " Mushrooms " ; and memorials upon Col. Joseph
Ward, 1737-1812, Gen. Adin Ballou Underwood, Benjamin Bars-
tow Torrey, 1906, and Col. Francis Jewett Parker, 1909.
Mr. Bates became a member of the New England Historic Gene-
alogical Society December 7, 1870, and continued such until De-
cember 31, 1885, but was elected a life member at the annual
meeting in 1897. During his membership he had read papers at
the Society's meetings, been a contributor to the Register, and had
prepared numerous memoirs. He was a member of the Committee
on Papers and Essays from 1877 to 1885, inclusive, and from 1906
until his death, was elected a member of the CouncU for 1910-1911,
and had rendered valuable services in bringing the Society more
prominently before the public since its meetings in Pilgrim Hall.
He served on various committees, including the special committees
upon " The question of the circumstances attending the formation
and execution of the plan of what is known as the Boston Tea
Party," and " The location of the scion of the Old Elm " on Boston
Common ; also as historiograper pro tempore. As Chairman of the
Committee on the Sale of Publications, in 1910, he rendered valu-
able services. Mr. Bates, accidentally finding some valuable papers
belonging to the late Daniel Webster, delivered an address upon
them before the Society in May, 1896, and in 1897 presented it
with one of them. Among them was a copy of an answer to a re-
quest that Mr. Webster undertake a lawsuit upon a contingent fee.
** I do not desire employment in professional matters although I do
sometimes engage in them. But I never engage in contingencies
merely, for that woiJd make me a mere party to a lawsuit. — D. W."
Mr. Bates died, having spent a useful and fruitful life, leaving his
widow and three daughters, Abby Barstow, Elizabeth Carver, and
Sarah Loveland Bates, and the final tribute was paid him in the
church he loved before a representative body.

The Society feels that it has lost in Mr. Bates an enthusiastic and
useful supporter, for he was ready with practical suggestions, apt in
Conunittee work, and never accepted failure.

[The foregoing entry is from the part of the list assigned to Cran-
brook. The principal industry of Cranbrook was the manufacture of
woollen cloth. The Sealis family may have been of French or Flemish
origin, and may have come over to engage in weaving. But " aliens " also
included Irish and Scotch. — E. F.]
[On the foregoing entries in the registers is based the following Sealis
pedigree:
1. John Selys of Biddenden was probably the man who was buried
there 7 August 1570, reference being made to him as " Father
Seelis householder." Nothing further is known of him.
Children, baptized at Biddenden :
i. Stephen, bapt. 18 Sept. 1547 ; bur. there 28 Sept. 1547.
2. ii. John, bapt. 17 Dec. 1553.

July 1551, RacheU, bapt. 19 Apr. 1551, Christopher, Richard, Katherine,
and Susanna may also have been his children, but owing to the lack of
Seelis wills it is impossible to settle this point.
2. John Seelis of Biddenden, baptized there 17 Dec. 1553, was buried
at Biddenden 10 Feb. 1609-10. He married, 28 Apr. 1578,
Mary Stedman, daughter of Richard of Biddenden, baptized
there 2 Aug. 1553. She was probably the " Widow Seelis " who
was buried at Biddenden 6 May 1614.

3. Richard Sealis of Biddenden, co. Kent, and Scituate in New Eng-
land, " planter," was baptized at Biddenden 26 Nov. 1581, and
died in New England between 17 Sept. 1653 and 26 Mar. 1656.
His first wife, name unknown, was buried at Biddenden 10 Aug.
1612. He married there secondly, 4 May 1613, Margery Lea.
She was probably the Margery Ashenden who married at Bidden-
den, 27 Nov. 1610, Thomas Lea, buried there 9 Sept. 1612, by
whom she had a son buried at Biddenden, unbaptized, 27 Feb.
1611-12, and a son Thomas baptized 14 Mar. 1612-13. There
are no wills which prove or disprove this point. The records of
Biddenden do not state whether the women married there were
widows or spinsters. The date of Margery Sealts's death is un-
known. Richard Sealis went to New England, and married third-
ly, at Scituate, 15 December 1637, Widow Eglin Hanford,
sister of Timothy Hatherly, joining the church 24 December
following. He was admitted freeman 4 Sept. 1638, and was
deacon in 1653. He was called "Mr." Sealis in the colony rec-
ords. A brief abstract of his will appears in the Register, vol. 5,
p. 335.

ty of Kent was granted 16 February 1637-8 to Hopestill Tilden, father
and creditor of we deceased, during the minority of Elizabeth, daughter of
the deceased. (P. C. C, Act Book, 1638, fo. 149.) [29 May 1638 the
former grant lapsed owing to the death of the said Elizabeth. {lind.^ fo.

ceived generous portions of land.— E. F.

[From the foregoing wills and entries the following Tilden pedigree has
been constructed :
John Ttlden, Senior, of Crotehole in the parish of Ben3mden, the tes-
tator of 1463, born probably about 1415, died probably shortly after
making his will. He married Johan, the testator of 1474, who died be-
tween 15 June 1474 and 1 Apr. 1476. She may possibly have been a
second wife and mother only of Agnes and Thomas.
Children:
1. John, b. bef . 1446 ; living In 1480. (Was Elizabeth, daughter of
John Telden, who is mentioned in Joane Telden's will, the daugh-
ter of this John?)
il. Robert, b. bef. 1445 ; see below.
iii. Thomas, b. after 1464 ; m. Makgarbt ; made his will in 1479,
leaving to wife Margaret, sister Alice, brother John, and the son
of brother Robert at 18 years, and to Robert's daughter at mar-
riage,
iv. Alice, b. after 1438 ; unm. In 1474.
V. Aqnes, b. after 1438 ; unm. in 1474.
Robert Telden of Benynden, bom before 1445, the testator of 1479,
died between 25 July 1479 and 11 July 1480. He married Alice, who
was one of his executors. His children were probably very young at his
death, as he makes provision for any posthumous child.
Children:
1. John, b. after 1461.
ii. JoHANS, under age and unm. in 1479.
It seems probable that either from John, son of John of Crotehole, or
from John, son of Robert and Alice, was descended Richard Telden of
Benynden and Tenterden, the testator of 1565-6, although no evidence has
jet been found to prove the connection.
1. RiCHABD Tilden, yeoman, the testator of 1565-6, born probably at
Benenden between 1510 and 1520, died between 22 Jan. 1565-6
and 15 May following. He married Elizabeth, who survived
him. Was she a sister of Thomas Glover ?
Children :
2. i. John, b. after 1641.
8. ii. Thomas, b. after 1641.
iii. Julian, b. after 1646; m. at Tenterden, 21 June 1668, Thomas

vl. Cathbiune, bapt. at Tenterden 80 Sept. 1664 ; probably d. young,
vii. Mart, bapt. at Tenterden 8 June 1666 ; probably d. young,
viii. Alice, bapt. at Tenterden 6 Apr. 1669 ; bur. there 80 Sept. 1660.
Ix. Mary, bapt. at Tenterden 16 May 1661 ; living In 1566-6.
2. John Tilden of Tenterden, bom probably at Benenden after 1541,
was buried at Tenterden 29 Jan. 1625-6. He married there, 23 Jan.
330 Genealogical Research in England [Oct,
1569-70, Patience Casslbn, who was buried at Tenterden 28
Nov. 1615. We learn from the church records that he was jurat
in 1587, 1588, 1615, and 1625. He is caUed "Mr." Tilden, his
wife " Mistress " Tilden, and in their marriage licenses several of
his children are described as gentlemen.

8. Thomas Tilden of Tenterden, the testator of 1616-17, bom probably
at Benenden after 1541, was buried at Wye 6 June 1617. He
married first at Tenterden, 10 Mar. 1576-7, Alice Biggs, who
was buried at Tenterden 13 May 1593 ; married secondly, 18 Nov,
1593, Ellen Evernden, widow, of Rolvinden. The date of her
death is unknown, but Thomas Tilden left a widow Alice, probably
the mother of his son Freegift. Between 1604 and 1614 Thomas
Tilden left Tenterden, and moved perhaps to Elast Guilford in
Sussex, not far across the border from Tenterden, as he owned
lands there. What reason he had for moving to Wye does not
appear.

4. Nathaniel Tilden, baptized at Tenterden 28 July 1583, came to
New England in the Hercules in March 1634-5, with wife, seven
children, and seven servants ; settled at Scituate ; and died, proba-
bly at Scituate, between 25 May and 31 July 1641. He married
in England Ltdia, who, Savage thinks, was perhaps daughter of
Thomas Bourne. But as Thomas Bourne was bom about 1581, he
would have been only twenty-seven when Nathaniel Tilden's eldest
child was bom, and therefore Savage's conjecture is wrong. The
"son TOden " referred to in Thomas Bourne's will, made in 1664
(see Pope's Pioneers of Massachusetts), could not have been Na-
thaniel, who had been dead twenty-three years, but was probably
Thomas Tilden, son of Nathaniel and husband of Elizabeth Boume.
That the wife Lydia was the mother of all of Nathaniel Tilden's
children is proved by the bequest in Joseph Tilden's will : " to my
sister Lydia TOden, late wife of my brother Nathaniel Tilden . . .
and to her two daughters who are married in New England"
(Waters's Gleanings, vol. 1, p. 71). These daughters were bom in
1610 and 1613.
Tenterden, a limb of the Cinque Port of Rye, was a prosperous
and important place in our ancestors' day, as now, and the principal
town in the Weald of Kent. Nathaniel Tilden, called " Mr" in
both the Old and New England records, and " gentleman " in his
brother Hopestill's will, was a man of importance, mayor in 1 622
and jurat — a jurat was also justice of the peace — in 1 624, 1 625,
1627, and 1629. In New England he was also a town officer and a
ruling elder. (For an abstract of his will see Register, vol. 4, p.
173. See also, for him and his descendants, Deane, History of Scit-
uate, 353 £f.)

In Miscellanea Genealogica et Heraldtea^ Series 2, vol. 1, p. 333, there
is printed a Tilden pedigree, taken from the Visitation of IxHidon, 1 687,
and headed *' Tower Ward, Dolphin Precinct, Bakers' Hall in Harp Lane^
Tuesday 2^ August a*> 1687."
The arms there portrayed are Azure a saltire ermine between four
pheons or. The crest, a bn^en spear inverted gules, head or, enyironed
by a snake proper.
In this pedigree it is stated that there is " No Descent of this Family in
the Visitations of Kent or Sussex. The Arms he produced are in a Book
of M' Philpots Intituled Quartered Coats & Crests fo. 80."
According to this pedigree, as corrected by R. G. Fitzgerald-Uniacke,
Esq., after comparison with the original in the College of Arms, Richard
Tilden of Tenterden, co. Kent, h^ a son Jonathan Tilden of Breade,
CO. Sussex, who died about 1635, aged 46, and had as his second wife
Alice, daughter of Hall of , near Gillingham, co. Kent.
The children of Jonathan and Alice (Hall) Tilden were :
i. Bichabd, citizen and merchant of London, aged 63 In 1687, who m.
Hannah Millkr, dan. of John of Biggleswaide, co. Bedford, and
had sons Bichard, aged 22, unm. ; Daniel, aged 16; Samuel^ aged
14; Gabriel^ aged 13 ; and Jonathan^ aged 9 ; and daughters Han-
nah, wife of Thanks Holland of Stepney ; and Bote and Mar^, both
living unm. in 1687. It is this Bichard Tilden, citizen and mer-
chant of London, who signs the pedigree.
11. George, of Breade, co. Sussex, aged 60 in 1687, who m. and bad
issue.
HI: Sthan } ^*^ ^'^ ^>t»«»°* »«"•«•
i. Annb, wife of BoBKRT Gibbon of Beckley, co. Sussex.
11. Sarah, wife of Thomas Bbdinofhsld of Dover, co. Kent.
The Jonathan Tilden of this pedigree, with second wife Alice HaU,
was, however, not a son but a grandson of Richard Tilden of Tenterden ;
for he is identical with Jonathan, youngest child of John of Tenterden^
who was a son of Richard Tilden, our testator of 1565-6. (See above.)
Jonathan Tilden moved into Sussex, and died when his son Richard was
only eleven years old, and this may account for the meagreness of the
latter*8 knowledge regarding his father's family. He does not mention anj
child or children by his father's first marriage, although we know from the
Tenterden registers that Jonathan had at least one child (Gregory, bap-
tized 28 July 1617) by his first wife.
The Richard TOden who entered this pedigree was a first cousin once
removed of Nathaniel Tilden, the emigrant to New England, and he evi-
dently proved to the satisfaction of the College of Arms hb right to bear
the arms described above. Since he tried to trace his ancestry back to
1911] Revolutionary Soldiers of York County^ Me. 333
Richard Tilden, the testator of 1565-6, it is likely that this Richard, his
great-grandfather, had borne these same arms ; and, if this should be
proved, then Nathaniel Tilden and hb descendants in the male line would
be entitled to bear them. — E. F.]
[For the Tyldens of Milsted, co. Kent, see Berry, Pedigrees ... in the
County of Kent, pp. 30-31 ; Burke, Commoners, vol. 2, p. 881, and Landed
(Sentry. The Tyldens of Milsted bore the same arms as Richard Tilden
of London, but their crest was somewhat dLfferent. According to Berry,
William Tylden of Wormshill, Kent, who died in 1613 and who was father
of Richard Tylden, the purchaser of the manor of Milsted, was a descend-
ant of WOliam Tylden who paid aid for his lands in Kent at the knighting
of the Black Prince, 20 Edward III, but the intermediate generations are
not given. (See Hasted, History of Kent, 2d ed., vol. 6, p. 109.) Berry
says, loc. cit : " The Tyldens are a very ancient family in this county
[Kent], and appear to have separated into three distinct branches. The
first, and the most ancient, is here recorded. The second were origi-
nally of Tenterden, and went into Sussex : mention is made of this family
in the visitation for that county. One of the Tenterden branch went to
America, with the Pilgrims, and has founded a numerous family of the
name in that country, but they spell their name with an % instead of a y.
The third branch settled at Ifield, in Kent, and spell their name with an t."

1911] Jacob Sherman's Copy Book 343
JACOB SHERMAN'S COPY-BOOK, WITH GENEALOGI-
CAL NOTES
Bj William Bradpobd Browns of North Adams, Mass.
About ten years ago Mr. Brimmer Sherman of Williamstown, Mase.,
found amoDg a collection of supposedly worthless papers the old book
which is the subject of this sketch. It served originally as a copy-book
for instruction in the rudiments of arithmetic, is entirely in manuscript,
and consists of about fifty-eight leaves, 8x13 inches, bound in a homespun
linen cover somewhat ragged from much use.
The value of this old book was realized when there were found scattered
through it, on unused pages, records of an old Rhode Island family, the
ancestors of Mr. Sherman, telling of their removal from that state to
Pownal, Yt., giving a detailed record of births, marriages, and deaths, and
finally, on the last few sheets, furnishing accounts dealing with other early
settlers of the town.
The book was owned by JacoV Sherman of North Kingston, R. I., a
great-grandson of Philip^ Sherman of Providence through Eber,* and Wil-
Bam* and wife Abigail. His name appears in the list of William Sher-
man's children as the tenth child, bom 20 Nov. 1783. The maiden name
of his mother Abigail is not known.
Pownal, Vt, which is geographically among the Berkshire Hills and
easily surpasses most of the towns of Berkshire County, Mass., in beauty,
b an extremely interesting town genealogically. It is really a portion of
East and West Greenwich and Kingston, R. I., transplanted intact to Ver-
mont. As the Bates, Sherman, Gs^dner, Myers, Niles, Matteson, Barber,
Pratt, and other families intermarried in Rhode Island until they were
practically all related, so did these same families upon removal to Pownal
continue the same practice, and have continued it ever since. A compari-
son of the Pownal town records with those of East and West Greenwich
shows curious results — the similarity of names and the combination of
names being astonishing.

* It is not known why Jacob Sherman called Francis Bates brother, unless the^
were brothers of the charch. Jacob's dauehter married a son of Francis, and the fami-
lies were doabtless related in Rhode Island. It is possible that the connection is
through the Bissells, Susanna (Bissell) Sherman havrng had two sisters whose mar-
riages are not known.

Bissell
Susanna Sherman, who wrote and signed the records printed on page
844, was sister of John and William Bissell, children of John and Ann Bis-
sell of North Kingston, R. I. Susanna (Bissell) Sherman died 1 Jan.
1818, aged 76 (gravestone),^ so that she was bom in 1787 ; John Bissell
died in 1750, aged 18, so that he must have been bom in 1782 ; and Wil-
liam Bissell died 6 Feb. 1759, aged 80 years, 5 months, which would
bring the time of his birth in the second half of 1728. With the excep-
tion of the month in William's date of birth these results tally with the
records of three of the five children (only sex mentioned) credited to John
and Ann Bissell (R. I. Vital Records, vol. 5, North Kingstown, p. 58),
viz. a daughter born 26 Mar. 1787, a son bom 4 Apr. 1732, and another
son bom 21 July 1728.
Job Bissell of Newport, R. I., had children Job, William, Hannah,
Sarah, Joan, and Susanna, all under twenty-one in 1747. There was no
John in the family, which disposes of the possibility of Susanna (Bissell)
Sherman being a member of it.
Harry Bissell and wife Sarah of Newport had a son bom in Mar.
1708. He (Harry) was likely a brother of Job of Newport, and could
e This and the next item were carried oat so minutely evidently in order to famish
material for problems in computing time.
A She and ner husband, Jacob Sherman, are buried in the cemetery at Pownal Cen-
ter. The spot was originally in the town green, but this has been given over entirely
to the cemetery. Nearby are buried their daughter Experience Bates and many of her
fiunily.
346 Jacob 8hermav!% Copy Booh [Oct.
well have been the father of John of North IBQngston who married in 1717-8,
Job Bissellof Newport might possibly have been the son of Harrj, instead
of his brother.
There is on record at Providence, under date of 20 Jan. 1800, a power
of attorney signed by Jacob Sherman and wife Snsanah of Pownall, Y t^ and
Jeremiah Yallet and wife Anne of Lee, Mass., stating that Anne and Su-
sannah are heirs of their brother William BisseU. The Vital Records of
Lee, p. 234, give the death of "Anne, w. Jeremiah, July 8, 1806," aged 72,
which age agrees with the date of one more of the family accredited to John
and Ann Bissell, viz. a daughter bom 4 Mar. 1734.
The origin of the Rhode Island Bissells is yet to be solved. Assuming
that they were connected with the Connecticut BisseUs ^ere appears to be
but one avaUable chance for the connection. John* Bissell (Thomas,*
John^), bom 26 Jan. 1660, seems untraced. Li " Middlesex, Mass., Fam-
ilies," p. 1223, it is stated that this John had Samuel and John of North
Kingston, Job of Newport, and George, but no proof of the assertion is
offered. The difficulty about this is that the will of Thomas Bissell of
Connecticut in 1688 does not mention his son John, the inference being
that he was then dead.

Benjamin* Sherman, brother of John and William Bissell, married
first, 31 Dec. 1798, Philena Aikens; secondly, about 1810, Betset
Clark; and thirdly, 23 June 1819, Merct Briggs. He died 25 Dec.
1844. He had two sons, George^ and IsaaCy who became wealthy mer-
diants in New York City, Isaac being the father of Mrs. Bradley Martin,
the noted society leader.
Gardner
The Gardner family, so numerous in Pownal at the present time, de-
scends from Joseph* (Geoige,* George^) of East Greenwich, R. I., who
married Hannah Briggs. 'Hie names of all their children are not known,
but two of them, George, who certainly was a son, and Benjamin, beyond
doubt another son, came to Pownal.
George^ Gardner married at Newport, R. I., 11 Nov. 1737, Alice
Browne, daughter of Tobias. He died 10 Aug. 1801, aged 94 years,
leaving a will in which he mentioned the eight children not€^ below. In
1752 he sold his West Greenwich lands and settled at Beekman's, N. Y.,
living there until 1 762, when he made his purchase of Pownal lands. It
was he who laid out the settling lots for the proprietors of Pownal in
1782.
In 1779 George Gardner became involved in a dispute with the town
proprietors. As their derk and the keeper of their records he was accused
of removing certain sheets from the land records. He was finally prose-
cuted and forced to leave town,, and his lands were seized. Gardner re-
moved to Hancock, Mass., where he remained until about 1790, when he
returned to Pownal to spend his last days. Under date of 27 June 1782
there appears on the town record this report :
Your Committee to whom was referred the petition of George Gardner Esq.
of Hancock in the State of Mass. begs leave to report, that it appears that a
judgement was obtained before the Honorable Superior Court by a Conmiittee
of the Proprietors of the town of Pownal in 1779, for catting a number of leaves
out of the Proprietors books, for which without doubt the Honorable Superior
Court thought they had a sufficient reason, but It does not appear to your com-
mittee from the witnesses that have been heard by them that said Greorge Gard-
ner ever did cut out all or any of the leaves that are cut out of the Proprietors
books, and they recommend that the aforesaid Committee who obtained a judge-
ment against said George Gardner and a sum of money in damages for cutt&g
out a number of leaves from the Proprietors Books, pay the same again unto
the aforesaid George Gardner except the lawful cost occasioned by said suit.

The Rev. Elder Benjamin^ Gardner was an interesting resident in Pow-
nal in its early days. In 1765 he sold his West Greenwich lands for
!
348 Jacob ShermatCs Copy Booh [Oct.
£4000. On Pownal records, under date of Dec 1789| i^pears the fol-
lowing:
Reporting of Ck>mmittee on granting Ben]. Gardner his claim for a gift of
land.
In or about 1763 Elder Gardner then a Pnbllc preacher and an ordained Elder
of the Baptists so called remoTed into the town of Pownal to reside and waa
duly appointed to preacli and administer in all the rights and ordinances of thai
Society.
He had evidently claimed a deed of glebe land for his services, and his
claim was allowed.
Rev. Benjamin Gardner died 10 Dec. 1793, aged 78 (gravestone), and
his wife Jemima died 5 Feb. 1806, aged 82 (gravest<me). His will names
one son, Benjamin, Jr., and two daughters, Anna Stuart and Jemima
Williams. Comparing his age, close companionship with, and the imA
that he went bond for George Gardner at the time of his litigation
with the proprietors of Pownal, there seems to be no reasonable donbt that
they were brothers.
George* Gardner, bom 3 June 1739, died 8 Sept 1839, well over
100 years of age — his gravestone calling him 102. He married Ann Mtbes
of West Greenwich. He appears from the land records to have left
Beekmans in 1763, the year after his Either. His first daughter. Amy,
has been considered the first white child bom in Pownal— a tradition which
seems to have some basis of tmth.
Children:
I. Amy,* b. 25 Feb. 1763 ; m. John Sherman (see above).
II. Sarah, b. 23 Feb. 1765 ; m. William Bisskll Sherman (see above).
Ui. Oliver, b. 19 Feb. 1767.

The Gardners, with the exception of the Rev. Benjamin, were all Tories
in the Revolutionary war. After the batde of Bennington they were
levied upon for supplies for the troops, and gave most grudgingly.
In Jacob Sherman's cobbling accounts, written partly by himBelf and
partly by his wife Susanna, appear many items of genealogical interest.
In his settlement for work done for Isaac Buckling, 179S-99, are named
'* yourself," David, Silvenes, Body, Lucindy and, later, Hannah, evidently
another daughter. In David Akin's account, 1798, shoes were made for
Sarah; in Silas Pratt's, shoes for wife, Zadoc, and Nehemiah ; Isaac
Grover (1797) ; in Josiah Donning's (1796), shoes for Aling, Limon, Josiah,
Ebenezer, Elmer, and Martin; in Virgil Page's (1795), Simon, David,
Benjamin, and Eanis ; in John Sherman's (1796), shoes for Gamer Gard-
ner, Sarah, Susanna, Jacob, Greorge, Amy, William, Abel, and ^ Granny
Ifias."
Mtbrs
The item about '' Granny Mias " is interesting. She was Mary Monio,
daughter of Joseph of Bristol, R. L, bom 23 Oct. 1715, died at Pownal
Nov. 1800, aged 86 (gravestone), the grandmother of Amy Grardner (wife
of John Sherman), and widow of Oliver Myers of West Greenwich who
died 29 Aug. 1769. All the sons of Oliver Myers settled at Pownal, aiid
their sister Ann was the wife of Greorge Grardner of that place. Their
mother also evidendy moved to Powniu in her old age. At the date of
1911] Records from Bible of Jonathan Wilson 349
the account in 1796 she was aged about 81 years.
Oliver Myers was son of Nicholas ** Mias " of Little Compton, R.L, and
his wife Elizabeth Nichols. His will, dated 7 Aug. 1769 at West Green-
wich, names sons Oliver, Hezekiah, Nicholas, and Gideon ; and daughters
Ann Grardner, Elizabeth Howard, and Mary Myers. All these, except
the last two, came to Pownal. Oliver Myers, Jr., married Elizabeth Niles,
whose brothers were also Pownal settlers.

Rebecca — — who married secondly — — Cutler, who perhaps outliTed her.
Is she the Rebecca Russell who married a Jonathan Wilson at Thonopson, 31 Kay
1738 (Connecticut marriages) ? And if so, who were her parents ? This Jonathan
Wilson was a son of James who married Margaret (Russ) Peters. James being the

THE DRURY DEATH BOOK
Ck>mmaiiicated by Thomas W. BAU>wnr, A.B., S.B., of WeUesloj, ICmtt.
Since preparing the Vital Records of Natick for pubiication, I have
learned of a book commonly called '^ The Drury Death Book," which on-
doabtedly contains many records not otherwise ayailable. Through the
courtesy of Mr. Fisher Howe, the present holder of the book, I hare nuMle
a copy of it for publication, so that its records may be put in a permanent
farm for future reference. '
The book was begun in 1757 by Lydia (Fuller) (WiUard) Drury. She
was bom December 31, 1717, was of the family of Fullers in Newton, and
married Ephraim Willard, son of Jonathan. Their marriage intention was
published August 7, 1737. After his death, she married Joseph Drury,
January 10, 1744-5. At a later date the book is said to have been handed
down to her daughter, Zeruiah Drury, who continued the records. Zeruiah
Drury was bom June 8, 1748, and married John Bacon, November 27,
1766. He was the eldest son of John Bacon, who fell at Lexington
April 19, 1775. They had two children, Lydia and Submit. The latter,
commonly known as Mitta Bacon, married Jonathan Bacon, December 25,
1788. in 1798, as the book says, she began the records, and is said to
have carried them on till the end in 1803, tdthough it is also claimed that
the handwriting during that period b that of her husband, Jonathan Bacon.
As will be seen, this is not a record of deaths in one ^unily, but contains
records of all deaths of which they may have heard.
On the fly-leaf of the book occur these entries: ''My father Joseph
Drury Died October the 25, 1770;" ''my Husbands father John Bacon
Bacon Died April the 19, 1775 ; " " Mr Elezar Kingsbury Died June the
1, 1796 at the last and very suddinly, formerly of Needham." In the first
of the book are a few leaves from the Prophets of the Old Testament,
and on the flyleaf of these occur these entries : '* Sarah Bacon was bom
January 24th day in the year 1772;" ''my mother died September 23,
1754" [this entry is thought to refer to the mother of Lydia (Fuller)
Drury] ; " Amasa Bacon was bom august the 1 1th in the year 1765." At
the bottom of the last of these pages b this entry : " Mical Bacon was bom
January the 13, 1774 and he Died July the 17, 1776."
Following these pages are the death records from which the book takes
its name, and they are as follows :

Annablk.— In the register of marriages at All Saint's, Cambridge (FhiUemore'a
Cambridgeshire Parish Registers: Msiriages, vol. 4, p. 9), occurs that of ''An-
thony Annable ft Jane Moumford IMomford] 26 Ap. 1619." Anthony Annate
came in 1628 with wife Jane and two daughters. He settled at Plymouth, bot
removed to Scltuate and Barnstable (1688-9), in which latter place his wife Jane
was burled. He was married twice afterwards. (See Pope*s Pioneers, Savagely
etc.) Henry Vickers and Elicabeth Annable were married tlie 9 May foUow&f
(p. 10). William P. GBn!a.AW.
Mixer.— Savage's Genealogical Dictionary says that Isaac Mixer came tai 1C84,
aged 81, with wife Sarah, a^ 88, and son Isaac, aged 4. In voL 1, p. 108, of
Philllmore and Blagg's SuiTolk Marriages, is found
Isaac Mixer Jun. and Sarah Thurston married May 11, 1629.
Isaac Mixer, widower and Anna Bloss widow married 12 Feb. 1628.
These are in the registers of Capel St. Mary, and in the same volnme are
Joseph Briden and Jane Mixer married Jnne 11, 1618.
George Mixer and Doreth Chisnall numied 26 Oct. 1620.
It seems possible that this is the family of Isaac Mixer of Watertown.

Kkap-Preston.— On page 446 of the Beed Genealogy, by John Lodirlciu

QUERIES
Brisbane. — I am preparing a genealogy of the ancestors and descend-
ants of James and WUliam Brisb^ie, brothers, who emigrated from Scot-
land and settled in South Carolina before 174S. Known, issue of James :
Robert and James ; of William : William Alexander, Catherine (married
first, 1763, Joseph Elliott; secondly, 1773, Andrew Hewatt), Adam Fow-
ler, Margaret (married, 1771-4, Matthew Paterson), Robert^ and Hannah.
I should be glad to hear from descendants, both in the male and female
line, or from others, giving information.

ADDRESS OF THE PRESIDENT
Membebs of the
New England Histobio Genealogioal Society :
We have entered upon the second decade of the Twentieth
Century. The first lies behind us, a decade of memories^ not only
of success attained, of useful work accomplished, but, better still, of
association with men who in their devotion to our common interests
have endeared themselves to us by giving expression to those higher
n>iritual qualities which lift man out of the murk of selfishness into
the clear atmosphere of brotherhood.
Since we entered upon the past decade how many of our fellow-
ship, as ftdl of life and hope as ourselves, have dropped on the busy
way. We miss their presence among us, and our hearts echo the
words of the poet, " But O I for the touch of a vanished hand. And
the sound of a voice that is still."
We should be dull indeed if we did not foresee that when this
Society enters upon its next decade many of us will have finished
oiu* work and passed beyond the vision of men.
Looking outside of our own sphere of activities, the past decade
has been one not altogether encouraging. If I were asked what was
its dominant characteristic, I should have to reply, a spirit of bitter
discontent. My morning newspaper is defiled with the harshest
personal criticism and abuse, and with staring headlines describing
strikes, riots, kidnappings, holdups, and murderous outrages.
A Russian gentleman, who has been living for some time in New
England and is now on his way home, alluding to this state of
afifairs, remarked recently that in no country in which he had lived
had he felt that he was in so much danger of meeting with a violent
death as here. In the streets of St. Petersburg and Moscow, where
he had lived during the periods which foreigners regard as the worst
in modem Russian history, he declared that he had felt far safer
than he had in the streets of our large cities, and, in support of his
conclusions, cited our newspapers and the criminal statistics of the
United States and Russia. His American friends were, of course,
greatly surprised. The fact is, that while we have been rapidly
advancing in education and wealth, we have had pouring into our
industrial centres a vast number of ignorant and vicious inmiigrants,
X N. E. HISTOBIO GENEALOOIOAL SOOIETT
whoy haying lived to maturity in countries where the most repressiTe
laws exist, are inimical to the established order which has hdd them
in bondage, and naturally regard all law as oppressive ; hence, they
revolt against the slightest restraint and are quick to resent attempts
to maintain public order.
No lover of his country can fail to regard its overcrowding widi
undesirable citizens except with apprehension. It is unwise and
unfair to our descendants to subject them, and the institutions we
are building for them, to the grave dangers which the present almost
unrestricted immigration is sure to bring upon them. The popular
whim that this country should by right be " the refuge for the op-
?ressed of all nations " finds its refutation in the Black Hand, the
lamopra, and other murderous associations which we have so com-
placently permitted to establish themselves in our midst.
On the other hand, the decade passed will be noted for what has
been accomplished for the cause of universal peace. The American
Delegation at the Hague will always be held in grateful remem-
brance for its achievements in supporting and procuriag the adoption
of measiures for the settlement of international disputes by peaceful
means, and especially for its persistent efforts towards the establish-
ment of a permanent Court of Arbitration.
I speak of these subjects because I know that the members of this
Society, representing as they do an institution which is a bulwark
of the social order established by the Founders of New England, are
interested in all efforts which are calculated to preserve it in its in-
tegrity.
Recurring now to our own activities during the decade passed,
our records show encouraging progress. The past year will be es-
pecially marked as the beginning of a movement which will result
in securing a new home for the Society. Recognizing that the time
was ripe to undertake the erection of a fireproof buUding suitable
for our purposes, you voted at our December meeting " That the
Council of the New England Historic Genealogical Society be and
hereby is authorized and instructed to erect a suitable building for
the present and probable ftiture needs of the Society on the land now
owned by it on Beacon Hill, with an entrance from Ashburtcm
Place ; and also to make all plans necessary to financing this under-
taking."
By the acquisition of the land on Ashburton Place we shall se-
cure for the new building a much more desirable entrance than we
now possess, with offices on the first floor, and a hall in the base-
ment ; and, above all, shall have a stack room of ample dimensions
and absolutely safe for our invaluable library.
The cost of the building it is estimated wiU not exceed one hon*
dred thousand dollars, and I am happy to state that we already have
pledges toward our building fund of fourteen thousand five hun-
dred dollars.
ABDBESS OF THE PBBSmENT Zl
If the work is pushed, aa I believe it will be, I fee no reason why
our next annual meeting may not be held in our own HsJl. Of
course we shall need to increase our .income, and an increase in
membership is most desirable. If every member will make a suc-
cessful effort to secure but one new member, so as to double our
present membership, we shall have an ample income to meet all ex-
penses. Will not everyone present make it a duty to secure at
least one new member?
I particularly wish to emphasize the call of the Council for addi-
tionfd endowment ftmds in order that desirable lines of work already
undertaken by the Society may be pushed with vigor, and it is sug-
gested that an opportunity is afforded by this need of endowment
ror the establishment of memorial funds, the income of which shall
be used for specific purposes.
The officers invite members to confer with them relative to the
promotion of the interests of the Society, in specific lines of work,
and also to co-operate with them in all ways calculated to improve
its affairs.
Our finances are in a sound condition. During the year we have
received bequests of $2500, and have made an advantageous sale of
our equity in a portion of our property. No. 16 Somerset Street, for
$14,500. We have acquired a valuable addition to our real estate,
giving us an entrance on Ashburton Place, and greatly increasing
the desirability of our property.
We need, also, a number of small contributions to enable us to
continue the work of English Besearch, and it is hoped that per-
sons specially interested in this branch of work may find pleasure
in helping the Society to maintain it. The excellent work which
the Besearch Committee has accomplished the past year is known to
all who read the Beqisteb.
The important work of adding to our collection of books and
manuscripts has been faithfully attended to during the year, as will
be observed by the detailed reports of the committee to which the
work has been intrusted.
Particular care has been bestowed upon collecting books in cuiv
rent demand, and this policy will be continued in the future. The
Library Committee has kept ever in view the laudable ideal of a
. library complete in every respect and unsurpassed in practical use-
fulness. A comprehensive card-index of genealogical data relating
to American fanulies, wherever found, which was suggested by our
most efficient Librarian, has been begun and, when completed and
eventually printed, will be invaluable to the genealogical student.
Excellent work has been accomplished in the collection of manu-
scripts, many having been added to the Library during the year,
among the most important being the " Diary of Josiah Williston of
Boston, 1808-1814," and the collection of manuscripts used in com-
piling the Hodges Genealogy.
XU N. E. mSTOBIO OENEALOOIGAL 8O0IBTT
The loose blanks for recording genealogical data concerning a sin-
gle genealogical unit, parents and children, which, as it expands,
will form a unique dictionary of family history, is conunended to
the use of all seeking genealogical information.
I have not attempted to review the Librarian's report for the rea-
son that it is so interesting and suggestive that it would seem super-
erogatory in me to do so. It is a document that every meinber
should have the satisfaction of reading in its entirety rather than
scattered gleanings from it.
In addition to oiu* periodical publications and the report of oar
sixty-fifth anniversary, which comprise 565 pages, the society has
published 2219 pages of Vital Becords.
A plan was inaugurated the first of the year to secure advertise-
ments for the Register, and in response to solicitadng through the
mail $196.00 was added to our income.
Special efifort has also been made for the sale of our publicationa
and miscellaneous books, which has resulted in a total of $1076. 79.
In the death of William Carver Bates, the efficient chairman of
the Committee on the Sale of Publications, the Society has lost a
man whose place will be hard to fill. He was one whose genial
manner and untiring zeal in performing all the duties that devolved
upon him, rendered him of great service to the Society. His pres-
ence at oiur meetings was always a delight to me, and I regard his
loss as a personal one.
I have not thought it necessary to refer specially to the doings of
all the committees, as they are all in print, and will be furnished to
every member of the Society.
Thanking you for unvarying courtesy and good will, and your
generous co-operation with the efibrts of the Council to advance oar
common interests* I wish you all a happy and prosperous year.

REPORT OF THE COUNCIL
The year nineteen hundred and ten haa closed, like its predecesBors,
without revealing here in New England any apparent diminution of
interest in those particular objects which this Society was organized
to foster and promote. Evidences are not wanting which tend to
show an ever increasing activity in genealogical pursuits. If the
deductions obtainable from the records of the past are a guide to the
future — and the space of time elapsed since the founding of the So-
ciety seems sufficient to afford a basis for such deductions — ^then it
may be safely predicted that this growth of interest will continue
and manifest itself in a constantly increasing amount of genealogical
Eublications. The accumulation of books appropriate to the Society's
brary has already become so great that the present building is inad-
equate to shelve them. Partly because of this need of more space,
but more largely because of the danger of irreparable loss by fire,
the Council deem it wise to proceed at once with the erection of a
safe and adequate building. Twice in the year nineteen hundred and
ten the priceless library, which has taken three generations to gather,
was in grave peril from causes that could not be foreseen or pre-
vented. Prompt and intelligent action by Mr. Donnelly of the
Library staff on one occasion averted a disaster.
After due consideration by special committees, the Council decided
to seek full authority to proceed, and as a result the following vote
was unanimously passed Dy the Society at the December meeting,
every member having been duly notified of the proposed action :
Vatedj That the Council of the New England Historic Genealogical So-
ciety be and hereby is authorized and instructed to erect a suitable building
for the present and probable future needs of the Society on the land now
owned by the Society on Beacon HUl, with an entrance from Ashburton
Place ; and also to make all plans necessary for financing this undertaking.
During the year negotiations begun in nineteen hundred and nine
were completed, by which the Society acquired an outlet to Ash-
burton Place for the Allston Place land, and also secured desirable
neighbors at 16 Somerset Street. This last named property was
sold to the Boston Architectural Club, which has made extensive
interior alterations suited to its purposes. Niunber 9 Ashburton
Place was purchased so as to secure a more desirable entrance to the
proposed new building. It will now be possible to erect a building
on the Allston Place Lmd that will not need an elevator, as the slope
(xy)
XVI N. E. mSTOBIO GENEALOOIOAL SOOIETT
of the land ia great enough to allow a well-lighted hall below the
level of Ashburton Place. Offices and stack room can be on the
street floor, with the library on the second floor. By this arrange-
ment a single flight of stairs (of approximately sixteen feet up or
down) will reach all the rooms used by members or visitors.
Proximity to the state, county and city records, as well as to the
main arteries of travel and to the business section of the city, makes
this location extremely desirable for the Society and convenient to
the majority of its members. The AUston Place land is relatively
inexpensive, and the building on it will not need costly exterior
ornamentation on account of its location. Low cost of both land
and building is exceedingly desirable, because it will be necessary to
raise money not only for the building but also for additional endow-
ment to furnish income to meet the expenses incident t<f growth.
It is estimated that between seventy-five and one hundred thousand
dollars wiU be needed for the building ; of which amount the Treaa-
urer already has pledges amounting to over fourteen thousand dollars.
Fifty thousand dollars additional endowment is needed at once in
order that desirable lines of work already undertaken by the Socie^
may be pushed with vigor. Opportunity is afforded by this need of
endowment for the establishment of memorial ftmds, die income of
which shall be used for specific purposes. Due credit can be given
to these funds for such purposes as, for instance, the publication of
the Register, the compilation and publication of a genealogical
guide to the data relating to American families, the compikudon
and publication of a continuation of the Consolidated Index to the
Begister, the vigorous prosecution of English research, the pur-
chase of books, the cataloguing of the Library, the binding of books,
and the publication of specially appropriate volumes or pamphlets.
The officers will be glad to coiner with any one desiring to estab-
lish a ftmd for the Airtherance of any of the lines of work suggested
above. They wiU also appreciate the co-operation of all members
in solving the problems confronting the Society.
In the death of William Carver Bates the Council and the Society
sustained the loss of an energetic and enthusiastic member. To
such members in the past the success of the Society has been due,
and the Council looks forward with confidence to an increasing in-
terest in the welfisure of the Society on the part of all its members.
BEPOBTS OF COMMITTEES XYU
The Report of the CoMBfiTTEB on Financb, by Hon. James Phin-
ney Baxter, A.M., Litt.D., Chairman:
The Committee on Finance begs to report as follows for the year
1910:
A legacy of $2,000 has been received from the estate of George
Sunmer Mann, the income firom $1,000 to be spent, if needed, in tbe
publishing of Memorial Biographies of Deceased Members, and the
income from the remaining $1,000 to be added every six months to
the principal until said sum reaches $5,000, when the income may
be used for general expenses.
A legacy of $500 has been received firom the estate of Edmund
Farwell Slafter, the income to be ^ expended for the increase and
enrichment of the Library."
During the year the property at Number 16 Somerset Street was
sold, the Society receiving for its equity a second mortgage for $14,-
300 and the privilege of buying the property back during the next
ten years. At this price Uie Society made a profit on d^e sale of
this estate.
The Society then bought the estate at 9 Ashburton Place, at a
total value of $39,369, subject to a mortgage of $23,000. This
estate backs upon the real estate owned by the Society, and makes
a new and most desirable fi*ontage for the proposed new building.
Donations of $2,005 towards this building have been received,
and $12,500 more are promised, though no special attempt has yet
been made to collect funds.
The Eeport of the Committbb on the Libbaby, by Helen Frances
Kimball; Chairman :
The Committee on the Library begs to submit the following report
for the year 1910:
The Committee has held regular monthly meetings (except in the
smnmelr) , and, either of itself or through a sub-committee which has
met at the Library weekly throughout the year, has attended to its
routine duties and the matters referred to it by the Council.
Various projects for increasing and improving the Library and
making it more useful have been discussed at the monthly meetings,
and in several instances action has been taken which it is believed
will be beneficial.
Especial attention has been given to gathering books needed to
complete the collections of those classes most in demand by members
of the Society and visitors to the Library. A progressive policy for
the acquisition of desirable books has been planned for the future,
by which it is hoped that the Library will be able not only to main-
tain, but also to add to, its reputation for completeness and useful-
ness in its special field. The collection of duplicate copies of those
books which are most in demand, and which are rapidly wearing out,
XVm N. E. mSTOBIO GENEALOQIOAL SOCIETT
is progressing steadily. These duplicates practicallj constitate a
circulating department of the Library, whidi is proving to be veiy
useful to the members.
Responding to the recommendations made in recent reports of the
Librarian, the Conunittee has undertaken to make a comprehensiTe
card index of genealogical data relating to American families and
their antecedents found in printed genealogies, pedigrees, local his-
tories, periodicals, collective works, vital reconls, church records,
probate records, biographies, diaries, newspapers, parish registers,
visitations, and miscellaneous works. These classes of books are
to be indexed as minutely as possible without making the undertaking
prohibitively expensive or unnecessarily cumbersome. It is planned
to make this index so that it can eventually be printed for general
use, and substantial progress on it will probably be made during the
coming year.
The Report of the Committee on Publications, by Henry Win-
chester Cunningham, A.B., Chairman:
The Committee on Publications reports that during the year 1910,
in addition to the Register and Proceedings, which make a volume
of 544 pages, the Society published the following :
Report of the Meeting on the Sixty-fifth Anniversary, 21 pages ;
the vital records of Tisbury, Wayland, Weymouth, Hanson, Chester,
Pembroke, and Foxborough, amounting to 2219 pages — in all 2784
pages for the year's output. Other volumes of vital records are now
in preparation.
In the interest of economy the Conmiittee voted to reduce the
number printed of Registers and Proceedings, the former firom 1500
to 1300 copies, and the latter from 2500 to 2200 copies, and to
discontinue the reprinting of any articles from the Reoisteb other
than those the reprinting of which had abready been begun. Con-
tributors are not prevented by this action from reprinting their arti-
cles at their own expense, giving twenty-five copies of such reprints
to the Society for use of type. The Conmiittee further voted not
to use computed dates in the volumes of vital records.
By a vote of the Council in April, 1910, the biographical sketches
of deceased members of the Society, which appear in the annual
Proceedings of the Society, are, as far as practicable, not to extend
beyond one printed page each.
The Report of the Committee on Pafebs and Essays, by Ethd
Stanwood Bolton, A.B., Chairman:
The Conunittee on Papers and Essays submits herewith its annual
report, including a list of papers and speakers for the stated meetings
of the Society during the year 1910.
BEPOBT8 OF COMMITTEES XIX
Janutxry 6. — " Massachusetts Bay and its foreign relations, 1680-1650,"

December 7. — '^ Baronial halls and Elizabethan mansions ; their history,
romance, and beauty," by Edmund Henry Garrett, of Boston, Mass.
The stated meetings have been held in Klgrim Hall, Congrega-
tional Building, throughout the year, as this was made necessary by
the greatly increased attendance. Through a mistake on the part
of the agent of the hall, the annual meeting had to be adjourned to
Wilder Hall, and the number present at this meeting greatly taxed
the seating capacity of our building.
A few years ago, on November 1, 1905, it was found necessary
to reduce the quorum of the Society from twenty to ten in order to
elect members at the stated meetings. The average attendance for
the past year has been 114 (about twenty above the seating capacity
of Wilder Hall), as against an average of 73 for 1909. The last
three months of the year have shown still further increase.
In December, 1910, Mr. Edmund H. Garrett gave an illustrated
lecture on Baronial halls and Elizabethan mansions. The at-
tendance at this meeting was over two hundred and seventy-five, the
largest stated meeting in recent years.
The expenses necessitated by this large attendance have also
grown. In order to keep the quality of the papers to the high ex-
cellence of the past few years, it has sometimes been expedient to
pay the travelling expenses of such speakers as live at a distance.
Your Committee believes, however, that a judicious expenditure
of money for the improvement of these meetings has been fully justi-
fied by the results.
The Report of the Committbb to assist the Historian, by An-
drew Fiske, Ph.D., Chairman:
As Chairman of the Committee to assist the Historian, I beg to
report that early in the year I wrote the Historian, Mr. William E.
Cutter, offering him the services of the Conmiittee. He replied that
XX
N. E. mSTOBIO OENEALOOIOAL 80GIETT
he saw no immediate need of calling the Committee together, but
later might be very glad to call for help.
Acting on this suggestion, I have not called the Committee to-
gether, and have been waiting for word from the Historian, bat up
to this time have received no request for assistance.
I, therefore, have to report that your Conmiittee has held no
meetings and done no work.
The Report of the Committee on English Research, by Charies
Sherburne Penhallow, A.B., Chairman:
The Committee on English Research has the pleasure of reporting
that it has received sufficient support to continue its work in Eng-
land with Miss French, whose gleanings have been published regfot-
larly in the Register. It has in hand interesting matter which
will appear in the April issue.
The lists of emigrants supplied by Miss French and Mr. Fotfaer-
gill will be completed in the April and July numbers, respectively,
and more space will probably be available hereafter for the gleanings
fix>m Miss French in addition to the space now occupied by her
contributions.
The accompanying account will show a widespread interest on the
part of the members of the Society. It is hopied that further addi-
tions to the ftmd will be such as to enable the Committee to canrj
on the work in the fiiture as a part of the regular work of the
Society.
The Committee desires to thank the members of the Society whose
generosity has made it possible to retain Miss French in England
the past year.

The Report of the Committee on Heraldbt, by Robert Dicluon
Weston, A.B., Chairman:
The Committee on Heraldry begs leave to report that during the
past year its members have held themselves ready individually to
help all persons asking for information or guidance in regard to
heraldic matters, but that no questions have arisen which have re-
quired action by them as a committee.
While the Committee is not altogether satisfied with the attitude
of the Society towards the use of armorial bearings by people in the
United States, and is painfully considering various propositions
which it may wish to bring forward later, it is not ready at the
present time to formulate or suggest to the Society any definite plan
of action.
The Report of the Committee on Epitaphs, by John Albree,
Chairman:
During the year 1910 the Society has received 6rom Franklin P.
Rice, Esq., inscriptions from the cemeteries at Bolton and Warreoi
and from the Eddy Town Record Fund those from Wejrmouth,
Wayland, Foxborough, Chester, Pembroke, and Hanson. The
facts contained therein, not elsewhere recorded, have been used to
supplement the omissions in the records of the various towns ms
printed in the series of vital records. The large supplementary use
made of data frx>m these copies of inscriptions shows dieir value, and
BEPOBTS OF OOMMITTEB8 xxiii
emphasizes the need of having copies made of inscriptions in other
towns. Correspondence to this end has been conducted during the
jear with persons in other New England states who are in a position
to give thought to the work.
Mr. P. Hildreth Parker, for whose painstaking and careful work
in copying inscriptions the Committee has had several times to ex-
press its obligations, has donated the copy of inscriptions, some
seven hundred and fifty in all, in still another town, North Reading.
A complete index has been added to the work.
The Report of the Committee on Collection of Records, by
Edward Chauncey Booth, M.D., Chairman :
The Committee on Collection of Records begs to submit the fol-
lowing report for the year 1910 :
Through the individual efforts of the members of* the Committee
a goodly number of manuscripts has been added to the Library
during the year 1910, the most important of which are the Diary
of Josiah Williston of Boston, 1808-1814, and a large collection
of manuscripts from which the Hodges genealogy was compiled by
the late Almon Danforth Hodges, Jr. The painstaking care, the
patience and perseverance in pursuit of a single purpose, and the
scholarly thoroughness of research revealed by this mass of neatly
written and fully classified data, are characteristic of the compiler in
whatever he undertook.
The Committee has designed, and had printed, blanks for record-
ing genealogical data to form an expansive dictionary of heads of
families. These blanks are arranged for recording on the Reoisteb
plan the genealogical and biographical information concerning one
genealogical unit (father, mother, and their children) per sheet.
These are to be filed in the Society's Library in loose-leaf binders
in alphabetical order by surnames, and alphabetically under each
surname by Christian names. The patent binder adopted permits
indefinite expansion of this arrangement, thus affording a method
for making readily accessible one or more genealogical units of any
family without expense for cataloguing and at a minimum expense
for binding.
The special purpose of this dictionary is for gathering and making
instantly available genealogical information^-especially unprinted
data — ^relating to American families.
The Committee suggests the use of this dictionary to members,
professional genealogists, and all others who wish to preserve and
make available to the public appropriate unprinted data, such as
records from family Bibles, lines of ancestry, corrections of printed
books, the solutions of difficult genealogical problems, the evidences
of English ancestry, and all similar information. Blank forms for
this dictionary may be secured at the Library.

Beport of the Committee on the Consolidated Index, by F.
Apthorp Foster, Chairman :
The Committee on Consolidated Index begs to report that the
Index of Places in yolmnes 1-50 of the Registeb is ready to send
to the printer. Several new subscribers to the Index have been se-
cured during the year past, and it is hoped to receive orders for more
copies as soon as the Lidex of Places is printed.
The Report of the Committee on the Sale of Publications,
prepared for the Committee by Mary E. Stickney.
The Conmiittee on the Sale of Publications begs leave to report
that during the year 1910 special effort was made by the Commit-
tee to increase the number of advertisements in the Registeb. One
hundred and six letters were sent to genealogists, genealogical print-
ers and publishers, and dealers in ^nealogical books, soliciting ad-
vertisements for the Registeb, to be arranged as business cards by
classes under appropriate headings. The response to these letters
has been very gratifying, $196.00 having been received before De-
cember 31. This advertising matter is to be reprinted as a directoiy
for general circulation and for use in answering those who inquire l^
mail for such services as are furnished by the firms and individuals
whose names appear in it.
Letters have also been sent to libraries having partial sets of the
Register, offering to assist in their completion. As a result a
number of sales have been made, the receipts amounting to $905.19,
a sum consideraUy in excess of the estimate for the year. The pro-
ceeds from the sale of miscellaneous books have been $171.60.
On November 6, 1910, by the death of William Carver Bates,
the Committee lost its efficient chairman, a man whose untiring
energy and never ceasing interest here, as in all other branches of
the Society's work wherein he served as a member of a committee,
have accomplished good results.
The Report of the Committee on Incbease of Membership, by
Louie Dean White, Chairman :
The Committee on Increase of Membership begs leave to report
as follows :
At the first meeting of the Committee, as now formed, it was de-
cided that individual effort for gaining new members should be used
by each member of the Committee during the year, and twelve
names have been added to the roll by recommendation of the mem-
bers of the Committee.
I
REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN
Presented by William Prbsoott G&bbnlaw
The kte Hon. Frederic Walker Lincoln once remarked, while en-
gaged in prepa,ni^g his last annual address to the Bunker Hill Mon-
ument Association, that it was not an easj task to prepare fourteen
different addresses on the same subject. The fidl depth of the
meaning of Ex-Mayor Lincoln's remark is realized and appreciated
by your Librarian as he begins to prepare this, the seventeenth annual
report of this Library since his connection with its administration.
Without reiterating, then, what has been said so often in former
reports concerning the Library's chief need — cleaving the presentation
of that to the Council and the President — ^your Librarian will en-
deavor to examine the original purposes and aims of the founders of
the Society for the sake of comparing them with the present trend
of the administration of the Library and ascertaining how closely
the course then planned is being followed now.
These purposes are probably disclosed fairly and ftdly in the first
publication of the Society, a leaflet afterwards known as ^ Circular
Number One," printed January 28, 1845, about two months before
the incorporation of the Society and nearly a year before the open-
ing of the Library. The repetition of these purposes in " Circular
Number Two," printed AprU 30, 1846, over a year aft«r the incor-
poration and about three months after the beginning of the Library,
with only some very slight changes like that produced by the inser-
tion of a hyphen between the words " Historic" and " Genealogical,"
reveals clearly that at the date of the founding of the Society these
purposes were definitely established and fixed in the minds of the
gentlemen who organized the institution. The ** Nature and objects
of the Society " were set forth in these circulars as foUows :
** An institation has been formed in Boston, by the name of the New
Ekgland Historic-Genealogical Society, for the purpose of collect-
ing and preserving the genealogy and history of the early New England
families. The object of this Association has justly been regarded as one
of great importance as well as cariosity, as well in a philosophical as
physical and social point of view. The minds of men are naturally moved
to know something of their progenitors — those from whom they have de-
rived their being ; and there seems to be an increasing interest in this sub-
ject ; many are endeavoring to trace their genealogy back at least to the
first settlers — the early pilgrims of this country. The Society propose to
cultivate this taste, and to give such a direction to these inquiries as will fa-
cilitate their labors, and render them of practical importance to individuals
and to the public. We wish, by imited action, and through the aid of our
collections of printed and manuscript wi^ks, to furnish the means to eyery
(xxy)
XXVI N. E. HISTORIC OENEALOOIOAL SOGIETr
person, descended from an early inhabitant of New England, of tradng his
genealogy and history. When our collection shall be sufficient, the Society
propose to publish a Genealogical and Biographical Dictionary or History
of all New England families. The present time is deemed a suitable one
for instituting inquiries of this nature, since the sources of information, by
the death of elderly persons, and the destruction of records, are daily be-
coming lessened, and soon it will be impossible to obtain the desired in-
formation at all. In accomplishing their objects, the Society propose to
obtain, by solicitation or otherwise, books, papers, original manuscriptSy
and written communications, relating to them. It is also their intenlkMi
to suggest the best methods of making genealogical investigations, and the
best forms for keeping family registers, and for the public records of birthsy
marriages, and deaths. All donations, either in print or manuscript, will
be deposited in the library of the Society, for the use of the members and
others ; and a description of them carefully entered on the records, in con-
nection with the name of the donor. Should you feel disposed to forward
to the Society any book, or original manuscript, or to compile a biographical
or genealogical memoir of an individual or tiunOy, selected by yourself or
proposed by the Society, and particularly your own family or connectioDS,
you will confer a public benefit and particularly oblige its members. It is
hoped you will so far favor our purpose as to make such contributions as
yoiir convenience may permit. The Society will be pleased to receive
suggestions, and to correspond with individusJs in relation to their objects.*'
" The Society will gratefully receive donations of the following descrip-
tion :
1. Printed Books, containing Memoirs of individuals or families. Fu-
neral Sermons, Epitaphs, Engraved Portraits, and every other printed
document or work, which can, m any way, elucidate the lives and actions
of the early inhabitants of New England, or their descendants.
2. Manuscript Documents, containing original copies or abstracts of
wills, deeds, settlement and distribution of estates, letters, and autographs,
coats of arms, &c,
3. Original, or copies of Family Eegisters, or Bibles, containing recorda
of births, marriages, and deaths.
4. Original Manuscripts, containing the Grenealogy, Biography, or His-
tory of early New England settlers, or their descenduits.
5. Newspapers, or parts of Newspapers, and other periodical works,
containing marriages and deaths, or obituary, or biographical notioes of
any individuals."
Your Librarian and his assistants find that the minds of men (and
women, too) are still being moved to know something of their pro-
genitors, that the interest in this subject still seems to be increasing,
and that many are yet endeavoring to trace their ancestry back to
the first settlers. The Society continues cultivating this taste by
means of its publications and its Librojy . The oflScers and com-
mittees have not ceased trying to direct these inquiries so as to facil-
itate research. The idea of a^reat genealogical and biographical
dictionary of New England isneven now under discussion by mem-
BEFOBT OF THE LIBRARIAN ZXVll
bers and committees of the Society, and estimates of the size and
cost* of compiling and publishing such a work have been prepared
recently by Mr. J. Ganlner Bartlett. The present time is still
deemed suitable for rescuing from destruction the genealogical data
found in old records, and for gathering information from aged per-
sons, the Librarian having a special committee to assist him in this
particular work. The Library staff continues to obtain, by solicita-
tion and otherwise, books and manuscripts germane to tfie purposes
of the Society as set forth in this early declaration. One may ob*
tain at the Library information and suggestions as to the best
methods of making genealogical investigations and for recording
or publishing the information gathered. Even the accession records
of Uie Library, with the names of the donors, are kept on the lines
suggested in this early document. The officers of the Society are
now, as in the past, receiving suggestions frx>m and corresponding
with a great many individuals in relation to the various divisions of
the Society's work.
The declaration of purposes, as set forth in these early circulars,
indicates clearly that this Library was intended to be primarily gene-
alogical. No warrant for trying to make anything else of it is found
in the act of the Commonwealth in 1845, creating a corporation
" for the purpose of collecting, preserving, and occasionally publish-
ing genealogical and historical matter relating to early New Eng-
land families."
Acting on this interpretation of the scope of this Library, those in
charge of it have been striving for many years to make it excel in
its particular field, believing that among libraries it should be the
court of last resort for printed and manuscript information relating
to New England families, their antecedents, and their descendants
wherever found. Li this work of building up the Library the Li-
brarian has had the hearty co-operation and support of the members
of the Society, many having freely and cheerfully rendered informa-
tion, advice, and assistance individually, while others have co-oper-
ated through service on various committees. That a large degree
of success has been achieved by this co-operation concentrated on a
specific purpose 19 evident from the Library itself and its reputation
here and abroad.
•Mr. Bartlett, in an elaborate tjrpewritten "Proposition for a Genealogical Ency-
clopedia of New England/' which is intended to include all the settlers who arrived
here before 1700 and four generations of their descendants, estimates that such an
undertaking would make abont 25 quarto volumes, averaging 721 pages each. The
cost of compilation he estimates at $38,000, and the printing at $40,000 for an edition
of 400 copies. By analyzinglOO genealogies which were printed in the Rboistbr
from 1808 to 1910, he finds 2^297 married heads of families in four generations, an av-
erage of 22.97 per family. From this analysis he deduces 2| as the ratio of increase
SBT generation. He estimates the total married male heads in the first four genera-
ons to be 110,000, 6000 of whom are in the first, 12,000 in the second, 28,00u in the
third, and 66,000 in the fourth. He further estimates that the work would include the
senealo^cal data relating to 781,000 persons. It is interesting to note that Mr. Bart-
lett beheves that accurate data is available in this library concerning 85,000 of the
estimated 110,000 families.

Accessions.
Four hundred and thirty-one genealogies have been placed in
the Library in 1910, a number exceeding by eighty-eight the annual
average of the previous eight years, malong a total of three thoasaod
one hundred and seventy-two (3,172) for the last nine years, an
average of three hundred and fifly-two per year. The total acoeft-
sions of the year number 712 volumes, 617 pamphlets, and 168 mis-
cellaneous articles. Of these, 301 volumes, 98 pamphlets, and 8
miscellaneous articles were purchased ; 319 volumes, 494 pani-
phlets, and 160 miscellaneous articles were given ; and 92 volumes
and 25 pamphlets were received in exchange. These accessions
added to the estimated number reported last year give 36,188 vol-
umes and 36,053 pamphlets as the approximate number in the Li-
brary December 31, 1910.
Condition of the Library.
Very few indeed are the books coming within a strict and nar-
row interpretation of the scope of the Library which cannot be con-
sulted here. Many are the books outside a strict and narrow, yet
within a broad interpretation, which can be seen here. Although
the Library is not fully catalogued, yet through the convenient
classification and arrangement of the books, and tibe skill of the li-
brary staff, it is possible for a member or a visitor to consult many
books in a brief time. It is owing to this fact, probably, that so
many come here to trace genealogy, and that the Society's books
are rapidly wearing out.
For the first time in years a substantial balance ($634.56) of the
income of the book-funds was unexpended at the end of the year —
a fact that indicates the completeness of the Library or the rarity
of the items wanted. Now that funds are apparently available for the
purpose, the work of gathering duplicates of the more important
books ought to receive more attention. The time to secure such
books is before scarcity increases the price. They certainly will be
needed before many years to replace worn-out copies, and they
prove very useful to the membership as a circulating division of the
Library.
For the benefit of those who are fond of making comparisons of
libraries on the basis of the number of titles contained, without re-
gard to duplicates or manuscripts, it may be well to state here that
this Society has a large collection of genealogical manuscripts, and
that it has in actual use five sets of Savage's Dictionary (not count-
ing one in use in England by the Committee on English Kesearch),
five sets of the Reoisteb, duplicates of a great many books like
Bond's Watertovm, Wjrman's Charlestown, the Essex Institute His^
torical Collections ^ the Mayjlotoer Descendant ^ and more than a
dozen copies of Munsell's Genealogical Index. These manuscripts
and duplicates form an important part of this Library, and its useful-
BEPOBT OF THE LIBRABIAN XXIZ
ness would be impaired without them. The real measure of a library
is probably found in the service it renders rather than in the number
of titles it contains. At present the average use of this Library is
about ninety-four hours of consultation a day» equivalent to about
eleven persons consulting books constantly from the time the Library
is open in the morning until it is closed at night. Many of the visi-
tors come from outside New England, and some are directed here
fi^m other libraries to consult books that cannot be found at home.
Happily the Society in such instances is usually able to maintain its
reputation. The r^ge of visitors at any one time is from one to
thirty. The average attendance is much higher in the afternoon
than in the forenoon, and Saturday is always a busy day.
Wants of the Library.
The Library needs the constant and persistent continuation of
its policy of specialization. The idea of specialization has as its
logical outcome, eventually, the transfer to other institutions of
some of the things that have been gathered here in the past which
are not appropriate to this Library. The idea also carries with it a
suggestion for the general cooperation of all the libraries in this
vicinity incorporated for special purposes. It is only through such
specialization and co-operation, and by wise regulations for the use
of these special coUections, that the greatest amount can be accom-
plished at the lowest cost. Perhaps it is not going too far to say
that the people of Massachusetts, because of the privileges granted
by charters, have a right to expect the officers of this and kindred
institutions to administer their trusts so that the greatest amount of
public benefit may be secured at the lowest cost.

MEMOIBS K
Mr. Grew was bom at Boston June 23, 1834, the son of Henry
Grew and his wife Elizabeth Perkins Sturgis. His ancestral line
on the paternal side is traced to John Grew, a native of Leicester,
England, bom about 1752, whose wife was Mary Coltman ; their
son John Grew, bom August 15, 1780, married Ann Greene, and
they were father and mother of Henry Grew and the grandparents
of the deceased member. His mother's parents were Nathaniel
Russell and Susan (Parkman) Sturgis. Nathaniel Russell Sturgis
was the son of Russell Sturgis and Elizabeth (Perkins) Sturgis.
Susan Parkman was the daughter of Samuel Parkman and Ssurah
Shaw. Russell Sturgis, who lived in Tremont Row in a house next
to that of Samuel Parkman, was a son of Thomas Sturgis of Barn-
stable.
He was educated in public and private schools in and near Bos-
ton, and in 1856, shortly after attaining his majority, went to China
to enter the house of Russell and Company as a clerk, his maternal
uncle Robert S. Sturgis being then head of the house. An older
uncle, Russell Sturgis, had been head of Russell and Company, and
was at this time a partner in Baring Brothers and Company of Lon-
don. Mr. Grew passed the early years of his life in Chma at Shang-
hai. He returned to this country in 1863 and married, October
20th of that year, Jane Norton, daughter of Edward and Henrietta
May (Goddard) Wigglesworth. Husband and wife then returned
to China, Mr. Grew being at that time a partner in Russell and Com-
pany. A son Henry Sturgis was bom to them, who died in China.
In 1867 Mr. and Mrs. Grew returned to America, taking up
their residence at Hyde Park and Boston. Their children were a
son Edward W., now a member of the firm of Meredith and Grew of
Boston, and three daughters : Jane Norton, now Mrs. J. Pierpont
Morgan, Jr., of New York; Elizabeth Sturgis, now Mrs. Boylston
A. Beal of Boston ; and Henrietta Marian, now Mrs. S. V. R.
Crosby of Boston. Another son, Robert Sturgis, was bom to them,
but died at an early age. Mr. Grew is survived by his widow, son,
and daughters.
After his return to America in 1867 Mr. Grew had no regular
business, but was always very active in the business life of the city,
and at the time of his death was vice-president and trustee of the
SuflTolk Savings Bank, a director in the Everett Mills, the Hamilton
Manufacturing Company, the Pepperell Manufacturing Company,
and the York Manufacturing Company. In all these companies he
took a keen interest, and his business knowledge and judgment were
greatly appreciated. He was deeply interested in charitable and
philanthropic work, particularly in the Farm School, but his great-
est work was in the doing of little kindnesses for individuals, who
feel that his death removed much of the brightness from their lives.

Freeborn Fairfield Raymond, 2d, of Newton, Mass., a reai-
dent member since 1881, died at Florence, Italy, on Washington's
Birthday, 1910. Mr. Raymond had been abroad several years to
enjoy travel, and was accompanied by his daughter. He was a
member of the law firm of Clarke, Raymond and Coale in 3tate Stre^
Boston. His home was at NewtonviUe.
Mr. Raymond was bom at Boston July 29, 1851. Bom and
bred in New England, he exemplified by his liiTe those sturdy and
reliable traits of character which her soil produces. As a young
man he entered the office of his brother-in-law, Col. Thomas W.
Clarke, a leader among patent lawyers of his day and generation.
His strict attention to the engrossing details of his chosen profession,
his unflagging industry and persistency, combined with his natural
aptitude for patent lit^tion, and an inborn inventive faculty, soon
won for him a place of his own at the bar. His devotion to his
work soon aroused in him his latent genius as an inventor, which
placed him in 1900 as the eleventh in the list of the inventors of the
United States, over two hundred patents having been granted him.
His inventions in shoe machinery have added in no smsJl way to the
development of the boot and shoe industry of New England.
Always deeply interested in reform movements, he accepted hia
responsibilities by taking an active part in them. He was one of the
executive committee in the politicfd campaign in the ninth congres-
sional district in 1882, one of the executive committee of twenty-
five in the election campaign of 1884, and a member of the executive
committee of Independents in his district in 1888, and his services
were considered by his associates as of great value. He was a
founder and active member of the Massachusetts Reform Club and
of the Newton Civil Service Reform Association.
A charming companion, with a quiet humor, full of good cheer
and goodwill and love for mankind, especially tender to little chil-
dren, and loving all beautiful things in nature and art, he made many
friends. He was a good neighbor, an able lawyer, an upright,
conscientious citizen. The world is richer for his Ufe, for his bright
spirit, his cheery ways, his true nobility of character.

Horatio Davts of Boston, a resident member from 1882, died
at Boston February 25, 1910. He was bom there April 6, 1855,

a member of the Provincial Congress, and was ftlso a direct descend-
ant of Gov. John Winthrop and Gov. Thomas Dudley ; and among
his other ancestors were the Kerponts, Perrins, and other old fami-
lies of Boxbury and Ipswich. He had given a great deal of atten-
MEH0IB8 liii
tion to genealogical research both here and in Europe, tracing
different branches of his ancestors to a very remote period.
Mr. Davis was unmarried, and was survived by three brothers
and a sister — Joseph, of Los Angeles, Cal. ; Charles, of Milton,
formerly of New York ; Fellowes, of New York ; and Maria, the
widow of Dr. W. H. H. Hastings of Boston.
After his school days he entered the cordage business, and became
treasurer of the Sewall and Day Cordage ; Company, and general
manager of the cordage combination for New England.
Mr. Davis, who was a very delightful and popular man, was a
member of the Somerset, Union, Country, Essex County, and Nor-
folk Hunt Clubs, and was prominent in Masonic orders.

Iviii N. B. HISTORIC OENEALOOIGAL SOCIETY
Isaac Chauncey Wyman, A.M., LL.B., of Salem, Mass., a
resident member since 1878, died at Salem May 18, 1910. He
was bom at Marblehead, or Salem, Mass., January 30, 1827, the
son of Isaac and Elizabeth (Ingalls) Wyman. Isaac Wyman (bom
1756, died about 1836 at Salem) was a soldier in the Kevoludon,
and his son was a member of the active military company at Wo-
bum, Mass., his name being enrolled as such. Isaac Wyman later
attained to the rank of colonel in the militia, and for a time waa
a merchant in Boston. He was a resident of Keene, N. H., aad
later of Salem, Mass., where he entered successfully into various
business enterprises. Mr. Wyman was a descendant of John* Wy-
man of Woburn, through Seth,* Seth,' Hezekiah,* Isaac.*
Mr. Wyman was educated in the public schools, was graduated
at Princeton University in 1848, and entered the Dane Law School
of Harvard University, graduating there in 1850. He was admitted
to the bar in the year of his graduation, and later was admitted to
practice in the FedercJ courts. Mr. Wyman began practice in Bos-
ton, but resided in Cambridge. He was early in his career associ-
ated with the celebrated Benjamin F. Hallett, then U. S. District
Attorney, and with him prosecuted the last case of piracy tried in
Massachusetts. At this time Mr. Wyman was acting assistant dis-
trict attorney, and he did detective work of much danger in the law-
less part of the city. After separation from Mr. Hidlett he associ-
ated himself with Charles G. Thomas, whom he induced to engage
in admiralty cases, only a few lawyers at that time making a special
study of that work. His firm had remarkable success in this line,
and, after his separation from Mr. Thomas, Mr. Wyman continued
his practice alone, having his office in School Street, Boston. He
drifted gradually into the banking business and in time became
president of the Marblehead National Bank, which office he held for
more than fifty years. He was also interested in real estate in Mas-
sachusetts and in other sections of the country, and to some extent
in mining property in Colorado. While Mr. Wyman was connected
with Mr. Hallett's ofiice, the Secretary of War consulted Mr. Hal-
lett about the purchase of a new site for the United States courts,
and Mr. Wyman bought for the Secretary the old Masonic Temple
in Temple Place for $75,000. The proof of his sagacity in this
purchase was found later, when the property was sold for $400,000.
Mr. Wyman never accepted public office, but voted with the Repub-
lican party. He was an Episcopalian, and belonged to the Masonic
order.
The following anecdote illustrates his prudence. In the last
Sioux uprising in the eighties, he, with a friend and a scout, were
on the plains. The scout suddenly noticed an Indian camp ahead.
At this time the Sioux had a bad reputation, and the scout advised
a rapid retreat. As they had been seen by the Indians Mr. Wyman
considered it more pmdent to advance than to retreat, and, after a
MEMOIB8 lix
wrangle with the scout, Mr. Wyman and his companion determined
on proceeding. Following a ride of fifteen miles they overtook the
Indians, who proved to be only a party of women and old men, more
frightened than the white men, and who, after having been given
presents, were left in a state of satisfaction while the white men
went on their way.
Mr. Wyman left a large estate, the greater part being given by
bequest to Princeton University. The estate, on account of the
activity of certain claimants, has attracted some attention in the
daily press.

John Page Woodbuby of Boston, a resident member since

bury. His line of ancestry was John,* John,' Joseph,* Peter,*
Peter,' Humphrey,* John* Woodbury, an old planter, who came to
this country in 1624.
He received only a common school education, and after 1837,
when his father was appointed trustee and manager of the Hancock,
N. H., Literary and Scientific Institution, he attended that school
until 1839. Afterwards, until 1841, he was in the office of the
Keene, N. H., Sentinel^ his experience there being considered by
him the best part of his education. At the age of twenty he had
acquired a knowledge of seven different trades, and from 1846 to
1854 was engaged in the lumber, steam mill, and coal business,
and from 1845 to 1867 in real estate and insurance. In 1870 and
1871 he was president of the Exchange Insurance Company of Bos-
ton, and after 1871 gave his attention to the collection of books and
prints and extra illustration of books.
The father of Mr. Woodbury was a Baptist clergyman, and the
subject of this sketch was his only child, whose early years were
spent in the various towns where his father was settled. In addition
to the above facts concerning Mr. Woodbury, it may be added that
for a time he was a member of the common coimcil of Lynn, was
treasurer there of several companies, was actively interested in pro-
moting the growth and improvement of the city, and was a member
of various societies. Aft;er 1867 he spent a vacation in Europe with
the members of his family. He resided part of the year in Lynn
and part in Boston.
He was married, September 22, 1850, to Sarah Elizabeth Sils-
bee, daughter of Nathan and Elizabeth (Stimson) Dodge. His
children were : Marcia Eola, bom at Lynn July 20, 1851 ; and

lands and Civilization at Hawaiian Islands," 1869 ; " The Lands of
Scott," 1871; "Bibliography of Charlestown and Bunker Hill,"
1880 ; " Voyage of the Missionary Packet " (1826), 1880 ; " Records
of the First Church, Charlestown," 1880 ; " History of the First
Church, Charlestown," 1882 ; "The Historical Monuments of France,"
1884; "The Imperial Island," 1886; "History of the Society for
the Propagation of the Gospel" (for the Centennial of the Society),
1887 ; "A Century of Town Life " (Charlestown), 1888 ; " Hunne-
well. Chiefly Six Generations in Massachusetts," 1900 ; "Triumphs
of Early Printing." He was editor of the " Relation of Virginia,"
by Henry Spehnan (1609), 1872 ; " Early American Poetry " (five
Toliunes, with introductions, etc. ), 1894-1899; and of various
other printed papers.
In the limited space at command only brief mention can be made
of his long connection with this Society. Soon after his admission
he began his lengthy contribution of the records and history of the
First Church in Charlestown to the Register. He copied the entire
records of this church from 1632 to 1787. He served on the
Nominating Committee of the Society, and on the Committee on
the Library, as librarian, 1871-1872, and as a member of the
CouncU, 1871-1889.
His work, the " Lands of Scott," was written in the Scott centen-
nial year, and in its preparation he visited and personally inspected
every locality described. The " Historical Monuments of France "
was characterized by great research and a thorough knowledge of
architecture. The " Imperial Island," displaying an accurate, mi-
nute, and careful method, placed within easy reach much valuable

material, said to be in itself an education in architectural art. His
Hunnewell genealogy, esteemed by.him only as ^an abstract,'* cost
him the expenditure of much time, labor, and money. Mr. Hunne-
well's '' Bibliography of Charlestown " was, when issued, the first
attempt of its kind in a direction much needed, and he gathered in
its preparation a library of Charlestown literature marvellous tor
its completeness, nearly all the works listed being on his own shelyee.
His history of Charlestown for one hundred years beginning with
1775, entitled '^A Century of Town Life," presented new and pecu-
liar features. It was strong in its description of the older architec-
ture, for its reproduction of entire records (not extracts), in its
original surveys, its preference for the rare and accurate, and its
careful attempts in the locating of ancient estates. In it also was
found a continuation of the ** Bibliography."
Mr. Hunnewell received the honorary degree of A.M. from Beloit
College in 1858.
He was married on April 3, 1872, to Sarah M. Famsworth of
Boston, daughter of the well-known Dea. Ezra Famsworth of that
city.*

RiOHABD Pratt Spencer of Deep River, Conn., a resident mem-
ber since 1869, died at Hartford, Conn., November 26, 1910. He
was bom at Deep River February 12, 1820, the son of Dea. George
and Julia (Pratt) Spencer. His ancestry was traced throu^
George,* Joseph,* Joseph,* Caleb,* Thomas,* to Gerard* Spencer.
His father, George Spencer, was bom October 6, 1787, at West-
brook, Conn., and his mother was bom October 21, 1785, at Essex,
Conn.
His boyhood was spent in his native town, and his education was ob-
tained in the district schools, at Madison (Conn.) Academy, Berlin,
Conn., and Belchertown, Mass. He returned to Deep River when
aged eighteen, entered the employ of George Read and Co., manu-
facturers of combs and ivory goods, and later on became a member
of the firm, remaining until he withdrew to form a partnership
with Ulysses and Alexis Pratt, under the name of Pratt, Spencer and
Co., for the manufacture of ivory piano keys and fancy turnings.
In 1850, having disposed of his interest at Deep River, he en-
gaged in the brokerage and banking business at Coming, N. Y.
His career there was successful, and in 1866 he retiimed again to
his native town. From 1861 until he died he was identified with
the banking interest at Deep River, and about 1867 was elected
president of the Deep River National Bank, and about 1873 was
treasurer of the Deep River Savings Bank for two years. He was
uniformly successful in business, and proved himself a man of unus-
• Mbmoual Biooraphibs, ix, 10.

ual financial ability, good judgment, and courtesy, with a high sense
of honor, not to mention other admirable personal traits. He was
highly esteemed by his associates, and served the National Bank in
various capacities for the period of forty-nine years. He retired
from the presidency of this institution early in 1909, but continued to
serve as a director, and also similarly in the Savings Bank, in the
offices which he had held continuously since 1870.
He represented his district in the state Senate in 1882, but had
very little taste for public office of any kind. He had removed dur-
ing the last months of his life, with his family, to Hartford, and
there died soon afterwards at the great age of ninety-one. His
father had died at the age of ninety-one, a brother at ninety-three,
and a sister survived him, aged eighty-five.
Mr. Spencer married first. May 15, 1850, Clarissa, bom January
12, 1824, the daughter of George H. Chapman, Esq., of Saybrook,
Conn. , and his wife Lucia Tully . She died in December 1871, with-
out children. He married secondly, in Februiuy 1877, Julianna
Selden of Hadlyme. By this marriage he had three children:
Bichard S., of Cleveland, Ohio; Mrs. Florence Holden, of Ben-
nington, Vt. ; and George S., of Hartford, Conn.

a corresponding member since 1886, was bom at Essex, Vt., Octo-
ber 21, 1847, and died at Plattsburgh December 19, 1910, as the
result of a shock of paralysis about five years ago, from 'which he
never completely rallied. His parents were Nelson and Eveline
Charlotte (Fellows) Kellogg.
He was graduated from Ae University of Vermont in 1870, ob-
tained the degree of M.D. in 1873, and that of A.M. in 1884,
For many ye^s he was a leading general practising physician of
northern New York, possessing extensive charity, especially for
young men, whom he materially assisted through college ; a lover
of nature ; a close student of local history ; an authority on the
history of the Champlain Valley ; owner of a valuable collection of
Indian relics now deposited with Amherst College; health officer
and trustee of a normal school at Plattsburgh ; acting assistant sur-
geon in the United States Army, 1898-1899 ; a member of various
medical societies, of the Prince Society of Boston, the Sons of the
Bevolution, the Society of Colonial Wars, and others.
He was married, September 22, 1875, to Elizabeth Stafford Smith
of Burlington, Vt., who survives, with four sons and a daughter:
Robert D., of Chicago ; Rev. Nelson, of Poultney, Vt. ; David S.,
of Spokane, Wash. ; Francis F., of Plattsburgh ; and Mrs. Arthur
Pope of New York.
Geobge Albert Clough of Brookline, Mass., a resident mem-
ber since 1898, was bom at Blue Hill, Me., May 27, 1843, and
Ixvi N. E. HISTORIC OENEALOOIGAL SOGIETT
died at Brookline December 30, 1910. He was the son of Aas
Clough, bom in 1799 at Blue Hill, Me., and his wife Louisa, a
native of that place, bom in 1811, the daughter of Matthew aiid
Roxanna (Nickerson) Ray.
He graduated at Blue Hill Academy in 1860, studied architectare
with Snell and Gregerson of Boston, 1863-9 ; which latter year he
opened an office on his own account. He was the first city architect
of Boston, 1873-83, and designed numerous school, church, muni-
cipal, hospital, ecclesiastical, and other buildings in Boston and else-
where. He was the architect of the extension of the Society's build-
ing, at 18 Somerset Street, in 1894, and of the additions to the
Suifolk County court house in 1909-11.
He married Amelia Merrill, daughter of Lyman and Ann (Smith)
Hinckley. Their children were : Charles Heniy, bom September
4, 1877; Annie Louisa, bora July 10, 1880; Herbert Arthur,
bom June 11, 1885, died Febraary 8, 1888 ; and Pamelia Merrill,
bora May 18, 1887.
Joseph James Muskett, M.R.C.S., of London, Eng., a cor-
responding member since 1883, died at No. 11 Talbot Boad, South
Tottenham, December 30, 1910. He was bora at Holt, co. Nor-
folk, June 12, 18d5, the son of Joseph Muskett, who was bom at
Attleborough, co. Norfolk, in 1790, and his wife Anne, bom at
Tillingham High House, co. Essex, in 1801, the daughter of Edward
Andrews.
Andrew Muskett of Thelton, co. Norfolk, had issue, by Elizabeth
his wife, John Muskett, his eldest son, baptized there July 1, 1710.
This John Muskett, subsequently of Newton Flotman, co. Norfolk,
by Mary the second wife, daughter of Ephraim Heywood of Diss,
CO. Norfolk, had issue William, his fifth surviving son, on the 24th
of 10th month, 1760, who was bom at Tharston« co. Norfolk.
This William Muskett, afterwards of Attleborough, married Mary,
daughter of James Taylor of Hackford, co. Norfolk, and Joseph
Muskett, mentioned above bom in 1790, was their eldest son and
the father of Joseph James Muskett. These Musketts are descen-
dants of the ancient family of Muskett of Suffolk, England, and
probably an offshoot of the Muschetts of Fenditton, in Cambridge-
shire, whose name appears upon the roll of Battle Abbey. An
account of the family — ^very inexact as to its earlier portion — is given
in Burke's ^* Landed Gentry" under the heading of '^ Muskett of
Clippesby."
Dr. Muskett was matriculated at the University of London in
1853, studied medicine at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, London,
and was admitted a member of the College of Surgeons, England,
in 1857. He was District Surgeon of Murraysburg, South Africa,
from 1859 to 1878.
MEMOIBS Ixvii
After July, 1879, when he had returned to England from a pro-
longed sojourn at the Cape of Good Hope, he devoted his time to
the collection of materials for a Genealogical History of the County
of Suffolk, England ; read all, or nearly all, the wills connected
with that county which were proved in the Prerogative Court of Can-
terbury and in the Bishops' Court at Norwich, from the first year of
Queen Elizabeth to A.D. 1699 ; took ample notes of many of these,
and to these notes made an exhaustive index nominum. At the
time of his election to this Society he was paying especial attention
to such incidental notices respecting New England and America as
he had the good fortune to meet during his researches.
It was his desire to publish a series of volumes under the general
title of " Suffolk Manorial Families of the Sixteenth and Seventeenth
Centuries," commencing with the Visitation of the County by Sir
Edward Bysshe, Clarencieux, in 1662, a record practically unknown
to genealogists. He fru*ther planned, unless forestalled by another
better qualified, to edit, as part of the " Suffolk Manorial Families,"
the well known Candlee MSS., which contain much . respecting
the early settlers of New England, the entire work to be confirmed,
corrected, annotated, and extended by materials from the Public
Record Office, the Library of the British Museum, local diocesan
and archidiaconal registries, etc.
His published works were two magazine articles : " Village Life
in South Africa," which appeared in the Cape Monthly Magazine ^
1860, and was also translated into Dutch ; and a paper on " The
Boers at Home," in the April, 1881, number of the Contemporary
Review ; two volumes and part one of volume three of " Suffolk
Manorial Families, being the County Visitations and Other Pedi-
grees," edited with extensive additions ; two editions of " Pedigree
of Ward of Suffolk and America" (chart), one in 1887 and the
other undated. He also edited the " Evidences of the Winthrops of
Groton, England," by Robert C. Winthrop.
Dr, Muskett married, April 7, 1863, Catherine Charlotte Dal-
gaims, daughter of Charles Augustus Wentworth, of the Cape of
Good Hope, but had no children.
