Vol. XL. NEW YORK, JANUARY, 1909. No. 1
JAMES WILLIAM BEEKMAN.
By Josiah Collins Pumpelly, A.M., LL.B.
James William Beekman, a descendant of the old Knicker-
bocker family of that name, was born in New York, Nov. 4, 1847,
died at his country residence, "The Cliffs," Oyster Bay, Long
Island, Aug. 7, 1908.
He was the son of the late Hon. James William and Abian
Steele Millidoler Beekman (1819-1897), and his grandparents
were Gerard Beekman (1774-1833) and Catharine Saunders
(17S5-1835).
From these he traces his ancestry back through James Beek-
man (1732-1807), William Beekman (1684-1770), Gerardus Beek-
man (1653-1723), to Wilhelmus Beekman (1623-1707) and Katrina
De Boog, who came to this country about 1645.
Mr. Beekman was educated at Columbia University, was a
student in the School of Mines and a graduate of the Law School
in 1871.
He was an Annual Member of The New York Genealogical
and Biographical Society. He was also a member of The Saint
Nicholas, Holland, Historical and Colonial Wars Societies, and a
member of Union, Metropolitan, Knickerbocker, University,
Century, New York Yacht, Seawanhaka Corinthian Yacht Clubs,
the Down Town Association, Bar Association; President New
York Dispensary; Governor New York Hospital and a member
of the Collegiate Dutch Church, corner 29th Street and Fifth
Avenue.
He was Lieutenant-Governor of the Society of Colonial Wars
in the State of New York from 1895 to 1897; Deputy-Govennor
from 1897 to 1902, and Governor from 1902 to 1904, and on his
death a resolution was passed wherein it is said: " His high char-
acter and personal charms inspired the abiding affection of all
those who came in contact with him, and by his uniform courtesy,
his respectful consideration and interest in the affairs of the
Society he contributed much to its success."
Mr. Beekman joined the New York Historical Society in 1886,
and was one of the Executive Committee in 1903, and at the time
of his death was a Trustee in the new building, in which under-
2 James William Beekman. Jan.,
taking he "showed courage, zeal and great patience in bringing
his plans to their outcome with marked success." His associates,
mostly men who had known him through life, testify to his great
worth.
From the able Secretary of the Holland Society the following
interesting data has been received: " Mr. Beekman was President
of the Holland Society, 1893-1894, and it was during his term of
office that the Dutch cruiser Van Speyk visited these shores, and
his participation in the hospitality extended to the Dutch visitors
caused the Queen to confer upon him the decoration of the Order
of Nassau, of which he was justifiably proud. His urbanity and
bonhomie made friends of all whom he met, and it was but
natural that he should receive the honors which fell to him in
The Holland Society, as well as those conferred by the Saint
Nicholas Society, in which his position as President (1890-1891)
rounded out a term of service, beginning with the office of
Steward and running up through the various Vice-Presidencies
to the head of the official list. Among good fellows there was no
more agreeable companion than he, and I can readily believe
what one of his friends said, that "he had more friends than
any other man of his acquaintance."
From an interesting tribute written by Mr. Beekman's brother-
in-law, an old friend of the writer, I quote the following: " Mr.
Beekman not only appreciated the privilege of good birth but
realized that it brought with it responsibilities. He keenly felt
the " noblesse oblige " which belonged to his high social standing.
He was careful and conscientious in the discharge of every duty,
great or small. He required from others honesty and upright-
ness in all business dealings, and when he did not find it he
preferred severing negotiations although to his own personal
disadvantage. In his social life, where he was facile princeps,
he was never so happy as when he was making others happy.
Few men have been members of more clubs and societies, and
though mingling with every variety of man, he never by word or
deed relaxed his high standard of living; also as a loyal citizen
Mr. Beekman openly upheld all that was good in our government,
and just as openly condemned bad government, be it either
National, State or Municipal.
In his official duties he was not only constant and painstaking
but a cheerful and a pleasant man to work with, and gladly did
all he could to advance the interests of those he deemed most
deserving. When he was Governor of the New York Hospital,
of which his ancestor was a founder, and as President of the
New York Dispensary, Mr. Beekman showed marked ability, and
his spoken appreciation of faithful work done by nurses and
employees was a constant source of encouragement to them.
Having been at Columbia, a student of the School of Mines
and graduate of the Law School, and having travelled extensively
in Europe, Asia, Africa and the Far West of our own country,
Mr. iieekman's mind was well stored with useful knowledge and
his companionship and conversation were valued highly.
Iqog] James William Bee!;?nan. 3
As a Christian he was a constant attendant at the Church of
his ancestors, and a devout follower of the Master and to Him
without a fear he committed his soul as his loved ones stood
around his dying bed.
In his home town Protestants and Catholics alike prayed for
his life, so universally was he beloved by both rich and poor.
There are three elements absolutely essential and inseparable
from the makeup of a complete manhood, and these are sincerity,
individuality and reverence, and it was these attributes of char-
acter which the subject of this sketch possessed in a marked
degree. The writer regrets that he had not the opportunity of
knowing Mr. Beekman personally, but can in a sense, through
the letters received very well understand the appreciation and
esteem in which he was held by all who knew him, and feels that
this glimpse one has into the depth and conscientious rectitude
of a life such as was his, leaves one the stronger and better pre-
pared to fulfill the obligations which God has placed upon him.
Mr. Beekman had in him, as Jonathan Edwards would have
said: " more than the average quantity of being."
He was a full man on every side, and his generous nature
and genial sympathy and good humor were ever a benediction to
his friends and social co-workers. In him there was an admirable
blending of the practical and the ideal, of the material and the
spiritual in harmonious combination.
Also it seems plain that he never left out of the forces of his
life as he used them, that which lies beneath and upholds all
others, the knowledge of the service of God.
And it is in the contemplation of this highest aspect of Mr.
Beekman's earthly career that those who now revere his memory,
think of his life work not as ended but as entered upon that
higher stage of larger knowledge and activity which is linked
with the eternities. In this faith and hope the ties which were
so sweet in life are not broken, but are made stronger by the
memories of the past and the expectations of a surer future be-
yond.
In these days when gross materialism is all around and
about us, such a just life as this should be rightly honored, and
this man's zeal for right doing should be held up as a bright
example for the young men of this generation. The quality of
the leading citizens of any age j^ives the measure of our nation's
civilization. Strong and fiercely virile as is the commercial
spirit of our time, the crowning glory of our century after all has
been the rise of the humanist and the development of a qi \\
order of chivalry among many of that leisure class to which. Mr.
nan belonged.
In the words of that grand old man, Gladstone, "the safety of
"in country is not in law and legislators, but in Christian gentle-
men." And of such was the subject of this sketch. His was
genuine service for his generation, constant and fruitful, and now
that he has "passed to where beyond these voices there is rest
and peace," those who knew him best must feel that he has left
to them a precious example and a blessed memory.
A Digest of Essex Wills. [Jan.,
A DIGEST OF ESSEX WILLS.
With Particular Reference to Names of Importance in the
American Colonies.
By William Gilbert,
Corresponding Member of the New York Genealogical and Biographical Society
of the Essex Archaeological Society, etc.
Foreword.
It has been observed that wills are the backbone of pedigrees
and it is now generally admitted by the genealogist that, of all
the sources of information available to him, they stand absolutely
first in respect of importance, as they enlighten him more than
any other class of document as to the habits, possessions, occu-
pations and relations of his ancestors, as well as informing the
antiquary and topographer of the names of estates, farms, fields
and houses long since vanished and forgotten. Previous to the
commencement of our Parish Registers (A. D. 1538), and sub-
sequently where the early register has been lost or destroyed,
wills are of a value that cannot be overestimated in rescuing
names and circumstances from oblivion, and recovering some-
what from the ever engulfing stream of time. I propose in the
following series to give a digest of the wills of Essex families
proved in the 16th and 17th centuries, more especially those
whose names are now to be found in America. If any period is
important to the American genealogist it is from 1560 to 1625.
Comparatively few, in the first instance at any rate, require wills
of a much earlier period, while those whose ancestors emigrated
later, will, I hope, find the present series a useful basis for
further research. This period in England embraces the reigns
of Queen Elizabeth and King James I, and the country was calm
and peaceful compared with the earlier time of the Reformation
and the later time of the civil wars. We therefore find many
people of quite a humble station of life exercising testamentary
powers to dispose of their little properties; frequently only a
few personal things. The wills were usually drawn up either
by the parson or the parish clerk — a busy person in those
days, frequently combining the duties of schoolmaster, singing
master, sexton and verger. There is a great uniformity of ex-
pression— the majority commencing " In the name of God
Amen," then the date, both the year of the Lord and the year of
the reign being given, then the name, abode and occupation of
the testator, usually recounting the fact that he is " sicke in bodye
but of good hole and pfect mynde and memorie" and thanks
Almighty God for it. It is possibly sentiment, but it appeals to
many as being a more picturesque procedure than our modern
practical method. The wills also frequently contain other re-
ligious sentiments and quotations from the Scriptures, which
kjck)-] A Digest of Essex Wills. 5
were held in the highest esteem. One reason for this "packing"
perhaps lay in the fact that the scribe was remunerated .1
ing to the length of the will, and it is not an uncommon circum-
stance to find moral sentiment and religious hope occupying a
good half of it. We however, as genealogists, while deriving a
pleasure from this reading leave it to the student of contemp* irary
religious thought and busy ourselves mainly with the earthly
relatives and possessions of the deceased; so the digests which
follow do not as a rule trouble about the religious clauses except
where the fabric of the church is mentioned, or where there is
something unusual, curious, or likely to be of service to the
antiquary.
The Archdeaconry of Essex had a wide testamentary juris-
diction within the county and the wills date from the year 1400.
This was one of the chief courts of Probate for Essex but is far
from being the only one, as, without including the Prerogative
Court of Canterbury, there were at least fifteen others having
powers over various portions, the principal being the Commissary
and Consistory Courts of London, the Peculiar of the Dean and
Chapter of St. Pauls, and the Commissary Court of Essex and
Hertfordshire. I hope to draw upon the vast stores of infor-
motion in all these repositories.
It must be borne in mind that prior to 1752 the year com-
menced on March 25th (subsequently it commenced on January
1st), otherwise it will appear that a number of wills were proved
before they were written which, as Euclid would say, is absurd.
The sign x after witnesses names signifies "his mark," and
that he (or she) was unable to write.
It now only remains for me to say that I have a great
pleasure in presenting these notes to my American friends
(several of whom have corresponded with me at different tim( s,
and a few of whom I have personally seen), and I hope that,
should anyone be able to throw further light on any of the wills,
he will contribute such explanatory details as he may have to
this magazine, which will thus become a store-house of no little
value, to the antiquary and the genealogist.

•f For many centuries there was, in England, a strong prejudice against
beintr buried on the north side of the churchyard, and that portion was usually
reserved for the reception of suicides, excommunicate persons, unbaptized
infants and those who had been executed. The place of honor was at the east
end against the chancel wall (see will No. 6). This prejudice is mentioned by
Arnot in his History of Edinburgh. In the "Wise and Faithful Steward"
(1657) it relates "he requested to be buried in the open churchyard on the
North side to cross the received superstition as he thought of the constant
choice of the south side."

father, who died in 1S33, was a well-known
farmer; he had nine children of whom John
was the sixth. The boy received his earlier
education at Washington and Lafayette Aca-
demies, both at Hackensack. He entered
Rutgers College in 1830, where he graduated
in 1833. After leaving Rutgers, he chose the
law as his profession and entered the office of
Governor Peter D. Vroom in Somerville,
where he pursued his studies for two years.
He became an attorney in 1836, and was
licensed as a counsellor four years later. He
became the junior member of the law firm of
Ogden and Hopper, which partnership was
continued until Mr. Ogden became a Supreme
Court Justice. From 1843 to 1847 Mr. Hop-
per was Town Counsel of Paterson; from
1845 to 1855 he served as Surrogate of Passaic
Co.; he was counsel to the Board of Free-
holders of that county from 1855 to 1864, and
served two terms as Prosecutor. In 1868, he
entered political life, and was in that year
elected to the State Senate from Passaic Co.,
serving until 187 1 and was re-elected in 1874.
In March, 1877, a District Court was estab-
lished in Paterson and Gov. Bedle appointed
Mr. Hopper as Judge. In 1880 he was ap-
pointed Judge of the Passaic Co. Common
Pleas by Gov. Abbott. Each succeeding
Governor reappointed him up to the accession
of Gov. Griggs. In 1879 he became an ad-
visory Master in Chancery. Mr. Hopper was
m. to Mary A. Imlay, dau. of Robert Imlay, a
Philadelphia merchant. He celebrated his
golden wedding in 1890. He leaves five
children: John H.,7 of the silk firm of Hopper
& Scott of Paterson; Robert I., a lawyer.
Mary A., widow of Frank W. Potter, late U. S.
Consul at Marseilles; Margaret Imlay, wife
of John J. Boyd of Boston, and Caroline
Sloan. Three children are dead, viz.: Annie
Burling, Albert E. and Jane B. Hopper. Mr.
Hopper was an Odd Fellow and a Free
Mason, and for many years was a Deputy
Grand Master of Masons of N. J. He de-
clined the office of Grand Master. He was a
member of the Holland Society of N. Y., and
in politics a democrat. The funeral was held on

THE MILITARY TRACT OF NEW YORK STATE.
By Grace m. Pierce,
There is no more interesting section of New York State than
the region lying between the Mohawk Valley and the Genesee
country, as it is frequently called. This central lake region is rich
in legendary and historical '
Its eastern boundary was the extreme western frontier of
American civilization at the be the American 1
lution, and forth i of the white race westward was held
in check by the alliance of the Indian tribes oi
known as the Iroquois Confederacy. During the War of
I 6 The Military Tract of New York State. [Jan.,
the Revolution this Indian Confederacy was allied with Great
Britain, and incited by the agents of the English government,
the tribes were at enmity with the Continental government and
were continually committing depredations upon the frontier
settlements.
After the massacre of Wyoming, the Continental Government
decided that a force should be sent into central New York to
punish these Indians for their murderous sallies and British
sympathy, and an army was gathered for that purpose and dis-
patched under General Sullivan. This expedition for the first
time made known to any considerable number of white men the
desirability of central New York for settlement, and many of
them at the close of hostilities, returned to this region and
founded new homes for their families.
The hunting grounds of the central tribes of the Confederacy,
were, however, to become the homes of their former enemies in
a more general way than by chance settlers, through the desire
of New York State to repay her defenders for their patriotism
and service in the hour of need, and central New York came to
be known as "The Military Tract."
This " Military Tract " was originally bounded on the north by
Oneida Lake, Oswego River, and Lake Ontario; west by a line
drawn from the head of Great Sodus Bay to the head of Seneca
Lake; on the south by a line drawn from the head of Seneca
Lake to the west line of the present county of Chenango; on the
east by the counties of Chenango and Madison, and the Oswego
River; the tract comprising all of the present counties of Onon-
daga, Cayuga, Seneca and Cortland, and a part of each of Oswego,
Tompkins and Wayne counties. As Onondaga was the only
county known at the time the tract was surveyed, the entire
tract was frequently designated at that time as " the Onondaga
Military Tract."
The history of the Military Tract really begins with the
resolution adopted by the Continental Congress, Sept. 16, 1776.
This resolution called for eighty-eight battalions to be en-
listed as soon as possible, to serve during the war, and that each
state should furnish its respective quota. That twenty dollars
be given as bounty to each non-commissioned officer and private
who should serve during the war unless sooner discharged. The
resolution also provided that the appointment of all officers and
filling of vacancies, except general officers, should be left to the
government of the several states; and that every state provide
arms, clothing, and every necessary for its quota of troops,
according to the foregoing estimates. The expense of the cloth-
ing to be deducted from the pay of the soldiers as usual. All
general officers were to be commissioned by Congress. And the
same resolution provided for grants of land to the soldiers who
served through the war, and to the representatives of those
soldiers who should be slain, in the following proportion: — to a
colonel, 500 acres; to a lieutenant-colonel, 450 acres; to a
major, 400 acres; to a captain, 300 acres; to a lieutenant, 200
Igog.J The Military Tract of New York Statf. I "
acres; to an ensign, 150 acres; to a non-commissioned officer
and to each private, 100 acres. These lands were to be provided
by the United States, and whatever expense there might be to
produce such lands, the said expenses should be born by the
states in the same proportion as the other expenses of the war.
On Aug. 12, 1780, Congress further provided land bounties for
Major-Generals, 1,100 acres, and for Brigadier-Generals, 850
acres.
All these lands were situated in Ohio, but later the United
States government made an arrangement with the New York
State government, that any soldier legally relinquishing his
claim to the one hundred acres in Ohio, should draw a full right
of six hundred acres in New York. But failing to relinquu '
right by neglect or otherwise, the one hundred acres over five
hundred acres (the amount given to each private by New York
State, as will be explained later), should revert to New Y< 1 k
State. The reversion of this one hundred acres gave rise to the
term "State's Hundred," which was formerly so much used in the
Military Tract.
On March 20, 1781, a law was passed by the Legislature, pro-
viding for the enlistment of two regiments for the defense of
the frontier of New York, to be armed, accoutred, clothed, sub-
sisted, and paid at the expense of the United States, and to
continue in service three years unless sooner discharged. "The
Council of appointment of the State of New York was to com-
mission the field officers, and the Governor of the state, the
captains and subalterns, who were to enlist as speedily as possible
the aforesaid regiments."
The faith of the state was pledged to the officers and pri\
that should they continue to serve the full time of three year-, ot-
to the time they were respectively discharged, such officers and
privates, or in the case of their death, their legal representatives,
should respectively receive grants of lands as follows: — each
non-commissioned officer and private, 500 acres, and officers to
receive in proportion to their rank, after the land had been sur-
veyed by the surveyor-general of the state. A ma
was to receive 5,500 acres; a brigadier-general, 4,250; a colonel,
2,500; a lieutenant-colonel, 2,250; a major, 2,000; a captain and
regimental surgeon, each 1,500; chaplain, 2,000, and each sub-
altern and Burgeon's mate, 1,000 acres. And this was all the
bounty or emolument to be received from New York State.
In case these lands were not actually settled within three
years after the war was closed, they were to be forfeited, and
were to revert to the state. The forces raised upon
ditions were to be mustered and comn the commander-
in-chief of the armies of the United States.
On March 27, 1783, the Legislature passed the following
measure: — "Whereas Congress by act of the sixteenth day of
mber, 177'', did resolve, that certain quantities of B
Lands should lie in-commissioned officers and
privates serving in the Con my.
1 8 The Military Tract of New York State. [Jan.,
"And, Whereas, the Legislature of this state are willing not
only to take upon themselves to discharge the said engagement
of Congress, so far as it relates to the line of this state, but like-
wise as a gratuity to the said line, and to evince the just sense
this Legislature entertain of the patriotism and virtue of the
troops of this state, serving in the armies of the United States:"
" Resolved therefore, that besides the bounty of land so
promised as aforesaid, this Legislature will by law provide that
the major-generals and the brigadier-generals now serving in the
line of the army of the United States, and being citizens of this
state; and the officers, non-commissioned officers and the privates
of the two regiments of Infantry commanded by Colonels Van
Shaick and Van Courtlandt; such officers of the regiment of
artillery commanded by Colonel Lamb, and of the corps of
sappers and miners, as were, when they entered the service,
inhabitants of this state; such of the non-commissioned officers
and privates of the last mentioned two corps as are credited to
this state as part of the troops thereof; all officers deranged by
any acts of Congress subsequent to the 16th day of September,
1776; all officers recommended by Congress as persons whose
depreciation of pay ought to be made good by this state, and who
may hold military commissions in the line of the army at the
close of the war; and the Rev. John Mason and John Gano,
shall severally have granted to them the following quantities of
land, etc." (These grants were in the same proportion as had
already been granted in the act of 17S1.)
" That the lands so to be granted as bounty from the United
States, and as a gratuity from this state shall be laid out in
townships of six miles square; that each township shall be
divided into 156 lots of 150 acres each, two lots whereof shall be
reserved for the use of a minister or ministers of the gospel, and
two lots for the use of a school or schools; that each of the
persons above described shall be entitled to as many such lots as
his bounty and gratuity land as aforesaid, will admit of; that
one-half of the lot that each person shall be entitled to shall be
improved at the rate of five acres for every one hundred acres,
within the term of five years next after the grant, if such lots
are sold by the original grantee, or within ten years of such a
grant, if the grantee shall retain the possession of such lots, and
that the said bounty and gratuity lands be located in the district
of this state reserved for the use of the troops by an act entitled,
'An act to prevent grant or locations of the lands therein men-
tioned,' passed the twenty-fifth day of July, 1782.' "
From the foregoing it will readily be understood that the
one hundred acres promised each private by the United States
was known as his "bounty" land, and the five hundred given by
New York State was distinguished as his "gratuity" land.
In May, 1784, Commissioners were appointed "to proceed to
grant military bounty land, and to settle individual claims.
These Commissioners were the Governor, Lt.-Governor, Speaker
of the Assembly, Secretary of State, Attorney-General, Treasurer,
igog.] The Military Tract of New York State. I g
and Auditor, any three of whom transacted business, the Gov-
ernor always being one of them.
The same act ordered the lands laid out in the form of squares
or as nearly a square form as was possible, and inhibited the
Surveyor-General from laying out any bounty or gratuity lands
in certain tracts or any part thereof.
These reserved tracts of land were, a certain tract adjoining
the south end of Lake George, within two miles of the fort called
Fort George; certain tracts at Ticonderoga, and at Crown Point;
a peninsular adjoining Lake Champlain called Point An Per,
comprising five hundred acres; two tracts adjoining Lake Ontario
where the Onondaga River falls into said lake, running from the
mouth of the said river and on both sides thereof as the same
river flows, one mile on either side; "a certain tract adjoining
the water communication between Lake Erie and Lake Ontario,
and to be bounded on the east by a line across a pond one mile
distant from the most easterly inclination of the said water
communication, on a perpendicular to the general course of the
said water communication, and to extend from the said pond to
Lake Ontario on one side and to Lake Erie or to the north
boundary line of Pennsylvania, as the case may be, on the other;"
a certain ore bed about eight miles north of Crown Point adjoin-
ing Lake Champlain, commonly called "Skene's ore bed;" "a
certain piece adjoining the falls commonly called Oswego Falls
on Onondaga River, beginning twenty chains above where the
bateaux were heretofore taken out of the said river to be carried
across the portage, and extending down the river twenty chains
below where the bateaux were usually put into the said river,
after having been transported over the portage, extending on
each side in every part between the said two places, ten chains
from said river."
The first grant of Military Bounty Lands comprised all that
tract of country bounded north by Oneida Lake, Oneida River
and Lake Ontario; west by a line drawn from Great Sodus Bay
on Lake Ontario to the foot of Seneca Lake, up Seneca Lake to
its head; south by a line drawn eastward from the head of
Seneca Lake to the Oneida Reservation, and along the Chitten-
ango Creek to its estuary, the place of beginning; except certain
reserves for the Onondaga and Seneca Indians, and for the State
of New York, in the vicinity of the salt springs.
The Indian titles to these lands had not as yet been ex-
tinguished and there was much doubt and uncertainty as to the
time when it would be, and many claimants became clamorous
for their rights. Consequently, on May 15, 17S6, the Legislature
passed an act authorizing the Surveyor-General to lay out several
townships where Indian titles had been extinguished, to satisfy
the claims of the officers and soldiers of the New York regit]
In compliance with this act, twelve townships were laid "lit in
the northern part of the state, numbered from south to north and
back, in two tiers, each township containing ten square miles,
being each ten miles square, ami equal to 768,000 acres. 1 '(
these townships, numbers 1, 2, 11 and 12 are now in Essex
20 The Military Tract of New York State. [Jan.
County; numbers 3, 4, 5 and 6 are in Clinton County, and num-
bers 7, 8, 9 and 10 are in Franklin County. These lands were
subsequently known as the "Old Military Tract."
Many of the soldiers' claims had been bought up by specu-
lators, and it was soon ascertained that these lands of northern
New York were not to be compared to the central lands for
fertility and prospective value, and the Legislature was induced
to defer the final settlement of claims until the Indian title had
been extinguished to the lands of the Onondagas, Cayugas and
Senecas.
This was finally effected by the Treaty of Fort Stanwix, on
Sept. 12, 1788, and the individual rights were located as originally
intended.
The Onondaga Military Tract originally contained about
1,800,000 acres, or about 3,000 rights, exclusive of reservations.
Deception and fraud regarding these rights had already been
practiced to a considerable extent, and progress in the settle-
ment of claims was made very slowly, as it was with the greatest
difficulty that the Commissioners could distinguish in some cases
between the rightful and fraudulent claimants.
In 1789, the Commissioners of the Land Office directed the
Surveyor-General to lay out as many townships as would satisfy
the claims of persons entitled to bounty lands. He accordingly
laid out twenty-five townships, numbering from one to twenty-
five inclusive; each township contained 60,000 acres, and these
townships were subdivided into lots of six hundred acres each.
In 1790, the Surveyor-General having completed the survey as
ordered, it was decided that fifty acres to be located in one of the
corners of each lot, was subject to the payment of forty-eight
shillings to the Surveyor-General as a compensation for his
services. This was the origin of the term of "Survey Fifty;"
and the further sum of eight shillings was charged by the Sec-
retary of State upon each lot in addition to his customary fees
for perfecting conveyances. Simeon DeWitt, the Surveyor-
General, personally laid out the whole Military Tract, by plotting
and mapping the boundaries and calculating the whole area.
He, however, appointed Moses De Witt and Abraham Harden-
burgh as his assistants to divide the Military Tract as laid out
into townships, each to contain one hundred lots, and this
division into lots of the townships was made under their direction
and superintendance, by a corps of surveyors working under
them.
It was originally intended to have each township ten miles
square, and each lot one mile square, but in reality some town-
ships and also many lots were found to be very irregular.
The terms of township and towns are frequently confounded
and the one substituted for the other. A township in the
Military Tract was a particular parcel of land laid out, containing
certain one hundred lots. A town, in our early organization
often embraced several townships.
The townships of the Military Tract were at first numbered,
one, two, three, etc., but afterwards the Commissioners of the
I9°9-l The Military Tract of New York State. 2 I
Land Office named them after distinguished men, an act which
explains many of the classical names of towns throughout this
section of the state.
The Military townships were named as follows: — i, Lysander;
2, Hannibal; 3, Cato; 4, Brutus; 5, Camillas; 6, Cicero; 7, Man-
lius; 8, Aurelius; 9, Marcellus; 10, Pompey; 11, Rumulus; 12,
Scipio; 13, Sempronius; 14, Tully; 15, Fabius; 16, Ovid; 17,
Milton; 1. S, Locke; 19, Horace; 20, Solon; 21, Hector; 22, Ulysses;
23, Dryden; 24, Virgil; 25, Cincinnatus.
July 31, 1790, at a meeting of the Land Commissioners, the
secretary having been furnished by Abraham Hardenburgh, one
of the deputies of the Surveyor-General, with a map showing the
interference of certain of the military lands with the townships
ceded to Massachusetts, known as the "Boston Ten Towns,"
brought the subject to the attention of the Board, together with
the fact that some of the lots thus conflicting had already been
balloted.
The Commissioners at once ordered these ballots destroyed
and two additional townships to be laid out by the Surveyor-
General from the lands set apart for the military, and lot number
26 was named Junius.
On Jan. 1, 1791, the Commissioners proceeded to determine
the many claims and to ballot for each individual share, and the
record of these drawings was kept in a book known as the "bal-
loting book." Ninety-four persons drew lots in each township;
one lot was drawn for the support of literature in the State of
New York, one lot was assigned near the centre of each township
by the Surveyor-General for the support of the gospel and com-
mon schools, and the remaining four lots went to satisfy the
surplus share of officers, and to compensate those who by chance
might draw lots covered with water. If any lots contained too
small a quantity of land the Commissioners were authorized to
correct it. The former act relative to actual settlement was
repealed and the time for such actual settlement was extended
seven years from Jan. 1, 1792. In case of failure to settle within
that time, the lands reverted to the State as before. But the
equitable adjustment of these land claims proved a source of
continual embarrassment and perplexity to the Commissioners
and real owners alike.
The warrants under which title was given to these claims
were known as "land patents," and were issued under the "Great
Seal of the State of New York." This seal was devised by a
committee consisting of Messrs. John Jay, Gouveneur Morris and
John Sloss Hobart, appointed by the Constitution of the State in
1777. The seal was double-faced, on one side was a rising sun
over three mountains; motto underneath, "Excelsior;" and
legend, "The Great Seal of the State of New York." On the
reverse side was a huge rock rising out of the sea, and the legend,
"Frustra, 1777."
The patent was written on parchment, fourteen or fifteen
inches wide, and twenty-one inches long, the lower edge of the
2 2 The Military Tract of New York State. [Jan.,
parchment was doubled back one and three-fourths inches, and
to this doubled edge the seal was attached by a braided white
cord an eighth of an inch thick, leaving the seal pendant to the
document.
In Aug., 1792, the Board of Commissioners, finding it necessary
in order to comply with the grants of bounty lands, lately
directed by law to be made to the members of the Hospital De-
partment, caused township 27, and the lots therein, respectively
to be numbered according to law, and the township to be desig-
nated by the name of Galen.
In 1795, as there still appeared a number of unsatisfied claims
for military bounty lands, the twenty-seventh township being
disposed of, the Commissioners resolved that the Surveyor-
General should lay out one other township, number 28, which
was subsequently named Sterling, and the allotment of this
township eventually satisfied all remaining claims.
In Jan., 1794, on account of the many frauds committed re-
specting titles to these military bounty lands, by forging and
antedating conveyances, by conveying the same to different
persons, and various other methods, and to prevent future frauds,
the Legislature passed an act providing that all deeds and con-
veyances made and executed before that time, or pretending to
be so, should be deposited with the clerk of Albany County for
the time being, and all that were not so deposited, should be
considered fraudulent. The names of the claimants were posted
in alphabetical order in the clerk's office at Albany, and also at
the clerk's office at Herkimer, for the inspection of all persons
interested.
These claims were still contested, the courts were over-
whelmed with litigation relative thereto. Scarcely a lot but
became the subject of more or less legal controversy; even
soldiers themselves going to take possession of the lots for which
they had served, were obliged to eject lawless squatters at con-
siderable expense, or to yield their hard earned title and rights.
At length, the residents of the Military Tract became so com-
pletely wearied with these most annoying and continued con-
tentions, that in 1797, they " unanimuously and heartily" united
in a petition to the State Legislature to pass a law authorizing a
speedy and equitable method of settling all disputes relative to
titles.
An act was therefore passed appointing Robert Yates, James
Kent and Vincent Matthews, Commissioners with full powers
"to hear, examine, award and determine all disputes respecting
titles to any and all bounty lands." The Governor was author-
ized to fill all vacancies on the Board. From the records the
name of James Kent does not appear in any transactions of the
Board. Most of the awards of 1798-99 were signed by Vincent
Matthews and James Emmott; later ones by Vincent Matthews
and Robert Yates; and some of the 1801 and 1802 by Vincent
Matthews, James Emmott and Sanders Livingston. These Com-
missioners after long and laborious investigations, finally brought
these legal contentions to a satisfactory conclusion.

loog.] Lists of Germans from the Palatinate who came to England in iyog. 49
LISTS OF GERMANS FROM THE PALATINATE WHO
CAME To ENGLAND IN 1709.
The following lists are copied from the original documents
preserved in the British Museum Library, London, England, and
should be of the greatest genealogical interest to those families in
States of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and else-
where, which claim descent from the so-called Palatine settlers.
These lists have never before been printed to the knowledge of
the Editor, and it should be noted that the word " son " or "s<
and "daii." or "daus." followed by figures denote that the heads
of the family had as many sons or daughters, as there are figures,
and that these sons and daughters were of the respective ages
denoted by the figures. The word "wife" indicates that the
head of the family was married and that the wife was living.
The abbreviations "Ref.," " Luth.," "Hap." and "Cath.," mean
that the family belonged to the Reformed, Lutheran, Baptist or
Catholic Churches.
Board of Trade Miscellaneous. Vol. 2 D. 57.
A list of all the poor Germans lately come over from the
Palatinate into this kingdom taken in St. Catharine's the sixth

NOTES.
Dumont Family. — Several years ago I contributed to The Record some
articles on the Dumont family, in which was mentioned the military service of
one Peter Dumont, who sometimes styled himself Peter H. Dumont to prevent
confusion. The chief Bibliographer of the Library of Congress, supplied the
following, under the date of Aug. 22, 1907:
" ]. P. Snell's History of Hunterdon and Somerset Counties, New Jersey ;
Philadelphia, 1881; has the following on page 782:
Henry Reed Stiles, A.M., M.D., hrst President and
last surviving Charter Member of the New York Genealogical
raphical Society, one of the founders and first Editor
of this magazine, died at his home, Hill View, Warren County,
X. Y., January 7th, 1909, in the 77th year of his age.
Driven to retirement through bodily infirmities, he con-
tinued until quite recently to prepare for publication the mass
of historical and genealogical material he had gathered, his
last work being the editing of a new edition of "A Journal of
Voyage of De La Salle to the Gulf of Mexico fo find
out the Mouth of the Mississippi."
Although most of his generation has passed away, prob-
ably no other genealogist was so widely known, so univer-
sally admired and beloved, — and by none more than the
members of the present Publication Committee of the RECORD,
whose honored associate as Editor Emeritus he was at the
time of his decease.

By request of the Congress, Hillsborough Township appointed a town com-
mittee in 1776 and 1777, to act in behalf of their country when necessary. The
following were the commit-
1776. — John B. Dumont, Abraham Dubois, Johannes Demott, Cornelius
Sebring, Peter A. Dumont, Lawrence Van Kleel, Garret Terhune, Jr.
1777. — Abraham Dubois, John Dumont, Cornelius Sebl
Dumont, Isaac Vannuys, Peter H. Dumont, Derrick Low, Peter Stryker, Jr.
The statement that Congres i 1 illsborough Township to appoint a
town committee, would seem to be of doubtful authenticity. Each Colony was
to appoint its own committee of safety as is seen from the following resolution,
adopted by Congress, July 18. 1775:
That it be recommended to each Colony to appoint a committee of safety,
to superintend and direct all matters necessary for the security and defense of
their respective Colonies, in the recess -cmblies and conventions."

Gilbert Famii ■•,, of a book published in Mass., I'. S. A., in
1850, entitled A Genealogical Memoir of the Gilbert Family in Old ana
England, by 1. \V. Thornton, is the statement: "From Compton : .. ■ stems of
the old stock branched off, for instance about 1604 John Gilbert li fl Compton
and settled at Blechington, County of Essex." This should be County oi
(representatives of which family are flourishing, 1 believe, at tin present day).
I mention this point as I have had no less than four correspondents use tins
statement as an authority for the conjectural connection between Gilbert oi
Essex (of whom Sir William Gilbert, the great elei p Eli/.), and
Gilbert of Compton, Devon (of whom Sir Humphrey Gilbert, the navigator),
irrespondent suggesting that Blechington (which he has read at 1
1 might be one of the Belchamps in Essex. The pedigree of Gilbert of
Essex has been traced back to Suffolk (circa 1420), and I am of opinion that
they were not in anv way connected with Gilbert of Devon as there were
families of this name of equal antiquity in the North and Midlands.

John Bidwell, Pioneer. A Sketch of his Career, by Marcus Benjamin.
Paper, Quarto, pp. 52. Privately printed. Washington. 1907.
The subject of this biography was descended from sturdy New England
stock, a son of Abraham Bidwell and Clarissa Griggs, and born in Chatauqua
County, New York. The family later removed to Pennsylvania, thence to
Ohio, and finally, in 1839, John Bidwell started for the West, and in 1841 joined
one of the first parties organized to cross the Rocky Mountains to California.
He took an active part in the early political development of California, which
led to her independence in 1846, and in 1849 purchased the domain of Rancho
Chico, which William Dickey had obtained in 1844 by a grant from the
Mexican government. With a strong bent of mind for farming, Mr. Bidwell
proceeded to place his great tract of land under cultivation, subdividing it into
some twenty farms, each devoted to the special product of grain, fruit, nuts,
vegetables and flowers. Great herds of live stock were collected, and General
Bidwell employed an army of 150 farm hands throughout the year, and at
harvest time the number ran up to 800.
He also incorporated the city of Chico and donated much valuable land to
the municipality. The people of California repeatedly honored General Bid-
well with positions of trust and high office, all of which he filled with ability,
integrity and success, and the principal facts of his political and legislative
career are set forth in detail.
The biography is beautifully printed and illustrated with half tone photo-
graphs, and the taste displayed in selection of large type, deckle edge paper
and subjects of illustration is unusually good.

1909.] Book Notices. 65
It is curious that the origin of the celebrated statesman should be so
shrouded in mystery. From his own account, three brothers came to America
from Wales in the early part of the eighteenth century ai n Phila-
delphia, but reference to the Welsh Tract Records, 170I-1828, only disi
the names Righart, Shonnet and James David in 170I. The fact is clear thai
one Evan Davis was the grandfather, and Samuel Davis the father, of the
nt of the Confederate States, and beyond that all is doubt or hypothesis.
The identity of the names David, Davies and Davis is to be doubted and hence
the problem of the Davis ancestry is far from being solved. The author, how-
ever, has advanced a new theory, and added valuable data to the meagre
family records, and has brought to the attention of the public a search which
should be taken up by skilled genealogists.
The ancient annals of a family which culminated in Jefferson Davis, the
great Confederate leader, are well worth writing, and an exhaustive search of
existing court records may result in further fact> oi

The DUYCKINCK and Allied Families, being a record of the de-

in 1638. Whitehead Cornell Duyckinck and Rev. John Cornell, M.A. New
York. Tobias A. Wright. 1008. 8vo, Cloth, pp. x+247.
Genealogies of old Holland families are, unfortunately, comparatively
rare, and this very attractive volume is doubly valuable for that re;. sen. It
contains the records of over 6,000 of Evert Duyckinck's descendants, and
numbers among them some of the best known old New York families. Among
these may be noted the Abeel, Allien, Bancker, Bartow, Beekma
Byvanck, Chrystie, Constable, D ir, Hoffman, Hooglandt, K
LeRoy, Livingston, McVickar, Pell, Pierrepont, I'rovoost, Roosevelt, Rut
Sands, Yanderbilt, Yerplanck, Whitney and Willed families, all of win. in,
especially their present-day members, are largely represented in the book,
their descent being derived through Duyi kini k women.
In addition to these very important ge present day New
Yorkers, the compilers have presented an exi or, of
the Duyckinck arms, a map of New Amsterdam in 1 chalk's plan
of the vaults in the New Dutch Church Yard in 17'^, besides several portraits.
The volume is well printed and bound, and will be found invaluable to ever]
student of New York genealogy.

Col. David Fanning's Narrative, with an Introduction and Notes by
A. W. Savary. Cloth, Large Octavo, pp. 55. Reprinted from the Canadian
Magazine, Toronto, Canada. 1908.
In this diary Col. David Fanning of North Carolina, personally sets out his
exploits and adventures as a Loyalist, and for the first time the manuscript has
been accurately printed in this interesting book. American writers have re-
peatedly attacked the character and reputation of Col. Fanning, and attributed
to him vices and crimes which existed only in the minds of the patriots who
were his opponents. Any Loyalist during the Revolutionary War was treated
by the patriotic party with peculiar opprobrium and considered to be without
the pale of civilization.
Mr. Savary has earned well deserved praise in placing before the public
the complete narrative uncurtailed or expurgated and explained by a series of
valuable notes. It was a happy thought to place in permanent library form
this remarkable magazine article, and it is from such writings as these that an
accurate history of the War of Independence can eventually be compiled, with
justice to both Patriot and Tory.
Memoirs of the Graham Family. Annie Kendrick Walker. New
York. Tobias A. Wright. 1908. 12D, Boards, pp. 35.
This exceedingly attractive little brochure, in its demure brown binding,
charmingly illustrated with quaint portraits, sets forth the life of a wealthy
Tennessee family in the good old days. The Grahams had their immediate
origin in Ireland, and Hugh Graham, the American Ancestor, came to this
country at the age of fourteen, and settled in Tazewell, Tennessee, where he
built his homestead, "Castle Rock." From this family descended the wife of
the American Minister to Constantinople, the Baroness Kavanaugh-Ballyane
and the Princess de Liguori de Pdesicci.

Unrecorded Wills prior to 1790, on file in the Surrogate Office, City of New
York. Volume XL Cloth, Octavo, pp. 256. Full Index. Printed for the Society,
New York. 1903.
No more important contribution to the genealogical history of this city
could be made than this volume of unrecorded wills, all of which were found
in the Surrogate Office by Mr. William S. Pelletreau, and the insertion of
facsimiles of rare autographs make it doubly valuable.
The wills of Henricus Selyns, 1700, one of the early ministers of the Dutch
Church; Samuel Sands, 1713; Anthony Brockholst, 1710; Jacob Walton, 1749;
Jacob Boelen, 1725; James Livingston, 1763; Jacob Walton, 1782; Martha
Mortier, 1786; Maria Barclay, 1788, and Teunis Somarindyk, are peculiarly
interesting and their discovery and preservation must be gratifying to their
descendants in this city and state.
Next to actual Heraldic Visitations and Ancient Pedigree Charts, the
public records contain the greatest material for genealogical study and this
series of the Historical Society will prove invaluable when, time, fire or the
elements have ruined or destroyed the ancient records.

This volume is a continuation of the admirable series of digests of wills

History anij Genealogy of the Jewetts of Amkkica, a record of
Edward Jewett, of Bradford, West Rideing of Yorkshire, England, and of Ins
two emigrant sons, Deacon Maximilian and Joseph Jewett, Settlers ol Rowley,
Massachusetts, in 1639. Also of Abraham and |onn [ewett, early settlers of
Rowley, anil of the Jewetts who have settled in the United States since the
year 1800, by Frederick Clarke jewett, M. D, In Two Volumes, Cloth, Large
Octavo, pp. 1197. Illustrated and fully Indexed. The Grafton i'ress, New
York. 10/38.
In 1855, a meeting of those who bore the name of Jewett was held in
Rowley, at which Steps were taken to collect and preserve the fast disappi
records of this representative family, but it was reserved for Dr. Jewett to hand
down to posterity a family genealogy of which one and all may well feel proud.
All the Jewetts in the country sprang from Edward Jewett, Clothier, of
Bradford, Co. York., England, who married Mary, daughtei of William Taylor,
except four families who came from England subsequent to 1800 and who
are, undoubtedly, of the same family originally.
The work appears to be exhaustive of the name in this country, and any
one of the great number of descendants can be readily found, owing to the
admirable arrangement, following the best standard genealogical system. The
stupendous nature of the authors task can be realized from the number given
to the last chi in Volume II, viz.: 11,042. The biography of each
head of a family is concisely told, and throughout the two volumes the reader
is impressed with eliminaiian of unnecessary detail and tradition hypotheses of
descent. In regard to the right to bear arms, the author states in his preface:
"The arms borne by him" (Edward Jewett) "and which were brought to this
country by Deacon Maximilian and Joseph Jewett. and which they were so
careful to preserve on the records here," but a careful examination of the data
given concerning the father and the two emigrant sons does not disclose in
what shape, how or where any such arms were preserved. It may he the seals
on the wills of Deacon Maximilian and Joseph [ewett bore an impress of the
arms claimed, but it is not so stated and if so, it is to be regretted that a photo-
graphic reproduction of the seal is not given.

Ky. 1907.
Considering the mass of data collected and the difficulty of arriving at any
condensed system of recording the facts concerning so many different families,
the author has accomplished wonders, and while his compilation is nut in
regular genealogical form, by an unusually clear and complete index, he has
made the searcher's task comparatively an easy one. Like all American
families the Millers are of many nationalities, and the various lines are traced
out with a wealth of detail not only admirably arranged, but well set forth in
readable form. The patient and persistent research expended upon this
volume excites admiration, and its author deserves every success in his effort
to leave a permanent record of his ancestors.
The traditions of the Maupin family and its French origin are particularly
valuable, and undoubtedly will aid many of the name in tracing out their fore-
bears. The typography is excellent; a trifle small, but this could not be
avoided in order to embrace all the material in one volume.
The Northrup-Northrop Genealogy— A record of the known de-
scendants of Joseph Northrup, who came from England in 1637, and was one
of the original settlers of Milford, Conn., in 1639, with lists of Northrups and
Northrops in the Revolution. By A. Judd Northrup, LL.D., of Syracuse, N. Y.
Cloth, Octavo, pp. 461. Full Index. The Grafton Press, New York. 1908.
While the spellings of the name of Northrup have been many and varied,
the ancestor of this branch of the family in the earliest documents of records,
always writes himself as Joseph Northrup. He is supposed to have come
from' Yorkshire, though this is exceedingly doubtful, as many of like name,
spelled somewhat differently are found in Hertfordshire and Kent. The
original immigrant was one of Eaton and Davenport's company, sailing from
England in the ships Hector and Martin in 1637. This company settled in
New Haven in 1638, but many members later affiliated with Sir Richard
Saltonstall's Company and removed to Milford, Conn., about 1639.
Joseph Northrup' married Mary, daughter of Francis Norton and became
the father of eight children, who in turn left numerous descendants. The
author displays much patience, care and skill in gathering and setting forth
his facts, and has put together an excellent family record. The addition of
such data as he obtained concerning the connected families of like name and
the Revolutionary records, make the book complete and extremely useful to
those who are searching to place ancestors of this name. The standard system
of recording is employed, which will commend the book to all practical
genealogists. The name of its publisher is enough to insure proper typography
and binding, and Mr. Northrup is to be congratulated upon so thorough and
useful a family history. It may safely be stated that if genealogies are con-
tinued to be collected and published on the lines of this volume, in a few years
the libraries of this country will possess unsurpassed collections in this line of
research.
The History of Orange County, New York. Edited by Russel
Headley. Cloth, Octavo, pp. 997. Index. Press of Van Deusen & Elms,
Middletown, N. Y. 1908.
This work fills a long felt want and presents an accurate and compre-
hensive history not only of the County of Orange, its settlements, early govern-
ment, events of the French and Indian, and the Revolutionary and Civil Wars,
and the legal, medical and journalistic celebrities of the county, but a
detailed sketch of each of the towns contained within its boundaries. Neces-
sarily the main facts of interest from about 1775 to the present time occupy the
largest portion of the book, and the biographies printed deal with living
representatives of the county, but the pages contain abundant material for the
genealogist and authentic lists of the early grantees, military levies and
organizations. Mr. Headley shows clear insight and grasp of his subject, and
has carried out a difficult task with ability and credit not only to his intelligence
and industry, but to the honor of one of the oldest counties in the State of
New York. The work is splendidly illustrated with a number of steel engraved

portraits and half tone plates of persons and places of interest, and while it
must be regretted that no exhaustive index has been made, this lack can be
attributed to the great cost in time and labor such an index would require.
The history will take its place among the best of kindred works on th<
Counties and go far to perfect the record of what may justly be called the
Empire State.
The Descendants of John Potter, by Mr. Wayland Manning. Paper,
Octavo, pp. 28, with Index. Privately printed. 1906.
This small pamphlet is a record of the descendants of John Potti
James Potter, ot Mount Potter and Catharine, daughter cf Sir John Stewart, of
t) Down, Ireland, born April 12, 176;, who immigrated to
Charlestown, S. C, in 178.1, married Catharine Fuller and removed i" Princeton,
N. j., in 1824, where he died in 1848.
Among the more prominent families related are those of Conger, Cuyler,
Dod, Higginson, Langborne, Pyne and Stockton, and the vital statistics col-
lected will be of much service to any descendant contemplating a full genealogy
of the family.
Gi nealogy of the Cortland County, N. Y. Branch of thi Sandi rs
Family, by Dr. Charles W. Sanders. Cloth, Quarto, pp. 101, with Chart.
Press of Meyer Bros., New York, N. \ .
John Sanders of Weeks, Downton Parish, Wiltshire, England, who came
to Salem in 1630, was the founder of the American branch ol the family, and
that he was entitled to bear coat of armor is clearly shown by the will of his
grandson, Capt. John Sanders of Salem, who died in 1694. This will was
sealed with wax upon which is an impression of a seal bearing an elephant's
side view, which is the crest of the Sanders Anns, as borne by the
English family of that name ol lamshire, Northamptonshire and
Wiltshire, England. The lines of descent are tersely set down to the present
day, but the work is more of the nature of a skeleton pedigree than a detailed
family history. It is illustrated with good wood cut portraits, but I
ally nor indexed. It is hoped that these notes may bring
to light additional data and result in a more complete genealogy. The book is
clearly printed and has many pages for added 1

Life In Old Virginia, by James J. McDonald. Edited by J. A. C. Chand-
ler, Cloth, Small Octavo, pp. 374, Unindexed. Press of The Old Virginia Pub-
lishing Co. (Inc.), Norfolk, Va. 1907.
The history of the early colony of Virginia has been so often and so admir-
ably written that further works upon this subject would appear superfluous,
except they contain original material gleaned from recently discovered records
and manuscripts. Mr. McDonald has collected together a series of chap-
ters upon historical subjects which are readable, and has filled the book with
photographic productions of persons, places and things of local interest. Its
value will be in the preservation of odd bits of information, rather than any
genealogical discoveries or records.
The Witchcraft Delusion in Colonial Connecticut, 1647-1697, by
John M. Taylor. Cloth, Small Octavo, pp. 172, with Index. The Grafton
Press. 1908.
No delusion in the history of peoples is of greater psychological interest
than that of witchcraft, and so early and anciently was this fear of powers un-
natural instilled into human minds that the Code of Hammurabi, digested 2250
B. C. contains provisions against the makers and casters of spells. The wave of
superstition that swept Colonial Salem in 1692 was but the aftermath of the
greater and more widespread frenzy against magic practice in the Motherland.
It was inevitable that the Massachusetts persecutions should be imitated in the
other Colonies, and the wonder and shame rests in the fact that reputable men,
of education and intelligence, should so drift with the tide of folly and actively
aid in the legal commission of crime.
Mr. Tayler has complied from ancient documents a most valuable record
of the Connecticut prosecutions and executions of so-called witch-wives. The
quaint and curious language and form of the depositions of witnesses are accur-
ately transcribed and the list of the unfortunate appears to be as accurate as time,
research and labor can make it. The date and name of the first victim in New
England, who paid the penalty to the superstition of witch-craft, has been dis-
closed by the author's efforts, and in Matthew Grant's diary can be read; "May
26, 1647, Alse Young was hanged" in Windsor, Connecticut. This is an im-
portant discovery and Mr. Taylor is entitled to the highest credit for his solution
of a long sought for and vexatious problem. The book is exhaustive on its sub-
ject and will become a standard work of reference. In typography, material
and binding, the work maintains the exacting standard of The Grafton Press,
and deserves the attention of historians.

PEDIGREE CHARTS.
The New York Genealogical and Biographical Society
226 West 58th Street, New York.
This Society has for sale official forms of genealogical charts called
"Register of Pedigrees." These registers are of two varieties, called "single"
and "double" charts. They are each paper covered books of 11 x 16 inches in
size, properly ruled and printed for the insertion of names of ancestors in succes-
sive generations. The single charts consist of 17 pages, and when filled in will
give all of the ancestors in all ramifications for o generations, arranged so that the
family name of each of the 16 great-great-grandparents occupies a page. Family
names appear on the marginal index which is formed by the indentation of each
leaf. The back of each leaf is arranged for special memoranda concerning the
persons named on the page facing it.
The double charts are practically two single charts combined. The object
being to devote the first half of the chart to the registration of the complete pedi-
gree of the male line, the second half for a like registration of the female line, and
the double chart therefore provides for the registration of 10 generations in both
male and female lines.
The price of these charts to members of this Society is as follows:
Single Charts, 75 cts. Double Charts, $1.50
To those who are not members of the Society:
Single Charts, $1.00 Double Charts, $2.00
Members of the Society, or others who purchase these Charts and fill them in as fully as pos-
sible and present them to the Librarian of the Society for filing in the Society's Library, will re-
ceive a new one in exchange therefor without additional cost. These charts may be purchased by
application to the Librarian.
It is the desire of the Ti
fill them out as far as possible and file them with the Society.
in volumes, fully indexed, and will thus form a record of inestimable value to the Society.
Those who have in their possession full information as to their individual ancestry are espec-
ially urged to obtain these Charts, fill them in and file them with the Society, as information of this
nature is very frequently lost to posterity owing to negligence on the part of those possessing it to
make record thereof, in special depositories provided for that purpose.

OUR EDITORIAL DEPARTMENT
is equipped to undertake any commission, however large or small,
and whether genealogical or general in character. We guarantee to
satisfy our customers. A few hints as to what we can and are doing
in the genealogical line —
Collect the material and write a genealogy from the beginning to
the end.
Complete a partly finished manuscript, no matter what stage it is in.
Take loose data and put it in perfect condition for printing.
Edit a completed manuscript, supplying the numbering, arrange-
ment, style or good English.
Prepare the index of names, and of places, or both.
Or do anything whatever might be necessary. And we will gladly
show examples of our work in all these lines.
AS TO GENERAL WORK—
We have indexed, rearranged, edited, and prepared for publication
many manuscripts. For the committee in charge of the New Mil-
ford (Connecticut) Bi-Centennial celebration (1907) we took entire
charge of their memorial book. The exercises occupied five days
and two members of our staff attended and prepared a full account
of all of the meetings, including the speeches. The townspeople
contributed several articles, and we put the whole into perfect form
for printing, submitted the manuscript to the committee and when
they had passed upon it we printed and published a handsome and
creditable volume.
It costs nothing to consult us and to consider our plan for making
any book you may have in mind. Our prices are reasonable and are
based on the services rendered. References given if desired.

HENRY REED STILES, A.M., M.D.
One of the founders of the New York Genealogical and Biographical Society.
By Tohias A. Wright.
To those who enjoyed the honor of his friendship his death
recalls the delightful memory of a refined and noble character.
Endowed with the attributes of a graceful and cultured per-
sonality, gifted in a high degree with the power to acquire and
transmit knowledge through the medium of his published writings,
he became the associate and friend of the leading scientists and
teachers of his day. They welcomed him to their ranks and the
doors of their institutes were opened wide to him. His ready
pen advanced the cause of associations and societies formed for
the welfare and elevation of mankind, and he was present at the
very inception and birth of many of them, our own Genealogical
Society being among the number.
Few men possessed greater ability in collecting and conserv-
ing the vital statistics and primitive history of New York and
New England than Dr. Stiles. While following his chosen pro-
fession of physician for a livelihood, it is safe to say that more
than one half his life was spent in historical and genealogical
work, for which he received no pecuniary compensation. We
might even marvel at the number and extent of the publications
that came from his pen, though his whole time had been gives
to this work. His industry, exemplary life and unselfish interest
in his fellow man made him much beloved. To the average
New Englander it is nobility enough to prove his own descent
from one of the Pilgrim Fathers; he made it possible for
thousands to trace their ancestry to the founders of our American
Government and to honored names in the older governments of
the world.
Dr. Stiles descended through a long line of plain Connecticut
farmers from John Stiles, a first settler of Windsor in 1636.* His
father, Samuel Stiles, a bank note and map engraver, settled
about 1830 in New York City, where his eldest son, II
was born March 10, 1832. He began his education at the Gram-

78 Henry Reed Stiles, A.M., M.D. [April,
mar School of the University of the City of New York; entered
freshman at the University in 1848, and sophomore at Williams
College, Mass., in 1849. Ill health prevented his graduation
there, but in 1876 he received the degree of A. M. from that
college. He studied medicine at the Medical Department of the
University of the City of New York, graduating in 1855; as also
in same year from the New York Opthalmic Hospital.
He practiced for a few months in New York City, then in
Galena, 111., with a partner, Dr. Timothy M. Wilcox; married in
Jan., 1856, and removed shortly after to Toledo, Ohio, where for
a few months he edited the Toledo Blade (daily and weekly), and
in July of same year removed to Brooklyn, N. Y. In 1857 and '58
he was a member of the firm of Calkins & Stiles, publishers of
educational works, and of the American Journal of Education.
From 1858 to 1861 he practiced his profession in Brooklyn, and in
1861 removed to Woodbridge, N. J., where he continued in active
practice until May, 1863, when his literary tendencies again
prevailing he accepted the position of Librarian to the Long
Island Historical Society at Brooklyn, of which organization he
was one of the founders and a member of the first Board of
Trustees named in the act of incorporation. Resigning this
position in 1865, he engaged in literary pursuits until in February,
1868, when he was appointed to a clerkship in the Bureau of
Vital Statistics in the Brooklyn office of the Metropolitan Board
of Health. Two months later he was made chief clerk of the
Brooklyn office, which position he retained until the abolition of
the Metropolitan Commission in 1870. He was then immediately
appointed Sanitary (Medical) Inspector in the newly organized
Board of Health of N. Y. City, and served as such in the 2d, 4th
and 6th Wards until July, 1873, when he was appointed Medical
Superintendent of the State Homeopathic Asylum for the Insane
at Middletown, N. Y. He there superintended the erection of
the first two asylum buildings, organized the asylum service, and
placed the institution on the foundation of success as the first
homeopathic insane asylum in the world under government
control. Resigning his position here in 1877, he removed with
his family to Dundee, Scotland, where he had been called to take
charge of the Dundee Homeopathic Dispensary, then under the
presidency of Lord Kinnaird, where he remained until 1881,
when he was obliged by his own and his wife's health to return
to America. Here he engaged in consultation with his old
friend Dr. Frederick Humphreys in New York City. In 1888 he
removed to Hill View on the shore of Lake George, N. Y., where
he had a private establishment for the cure of mental and nervous
diseases, but continued his association in N. Y. City until about
1 90 1, when he gave up professional work here and devoted all
his time to completing and preparing for publication his great
work, the History of Wethersfield, Ct., which was published in
two large volumes.
As far back as 1859 Dr. Stiles published his History and
Genealogies of Ancient Windsor, Ct., and in 1861 a Supplement to
the same; also a monograph on Bundling in America. In 1863
1909.] Henry Reed Stiles, AM., M 'J>. ~(t
he published the genealogy of the Massachusetts Family of Stiles;
in 1S65 he was an active member of the " Faust Club " which pub-
lished limited and choice editi i's History of Long
Island, and ot Far man's Notes on Brooklyn, N. Y. (the I
being fully annotated by Dr. Stiles). In 1865 be issued (limited
edition) two volumes relating to the sufferings and experiences
of the prison ship captives in Wallabout Bay, under the title of
The Wallabout Prisons/tip Series, and also edited The Genealogy
of tin- Stranahan and Josslyn Families.
In 1867 he issued the first volume of his History of the City of
Brooklyn, X. Y ., in 1869 the second, and in 1S70 the third. 'Phis
work placed him in the foremost rank of historical writers, and
is a lasting monument to his fame. It is remarkable that a man
whose ancestors were English and who had previously no
acquaintance, and (as he admitted to the writer) little sympathy
with the Dutch element of our early beginning as a nation, should
have chosen this stamping ground of the Dutchman, this city that
they founded, as a subject upon which to spend years of the
most indefatigable investigation and painstaking research, and
make their history his crowning work. Surely the citizens of old
Brooklyn owe him a lasting debt of gratitude. He wrote a Life
of Abraham Lincoln (1865); 22 of the 50 biographies in Tin- Men of
Our Day (1868), one or two campaign biographies of Gen :
Grant, and portions of many other subscription books. Anion;; his
numerous contributions torn and magazines are sketches
of publishers in the Round Table for 1 866-7 i papers in the Historical
Magazine, of which he was editor; letters and historical sketches
in the Rahway 'Tunes (X. J.), under the nom-de-plume of "Tip
Top." In 1S84 he edited and mtributed to the Illustrated
History of the County of Kings and the ( ity of Brooklyn, 2 vols.,
quarto, and in 1887 completed the editing of the Humphrey
Family Genealogy.
He was a member of the Kin^s County, Orange and New
York County Societies, State Hon pathic Medical Society,
New York Medico- Lej;al Society; of the Clinical Club; was one
of the organizers and first members of the Public Health Asso-
ciation of New York City, and a founder and officer of the Society
f>r Promoting the Welfare of the Insane in N. Y. City; a special
lecturer on Hygiene and Sanitary Science in the X. Y Homeo-
pathic Medical College, and Professor of Mental and Nervous
Diseases in the X. Y Woman's Medical College and Hospital.

to the Record, its quarterly magazine. He was also a Life Mem-
ber of the Long Island Historical Society, and an Honorary Mem-
ber of the Northwestern Literary and Historical Society of Sioux
City, Iowa.
At one period Dr. Stiles was much interested in the subject
and philosophy of Freemasonry, in which he took all the degrees
of the New York Rite, and all of those in the Scottish Rite, up to
and including the Thirty-second Degree.
In bearing he was dignified, but his great kindly nature glowed
through the reserve like a burst of sunshine, lighting the way to
the hearts of his associates and friends. His quick wit and quaint
humor made him a most delightful companion. After retirement
to his country seat and when the physical infirmities of age were
bearing heavily upon him he kept up a cheerful correspondence
with friends, often illustrating his letters with humorous sketches
and cartoons, in the art of which he was, like Thackeray, a master.
In religion he was brought up a Presbyterian in the Old Spring
Street Church in New York City, of which his father was an elder,
but while in Scotland entered the communion of the Catholic
Apostolic Church, and his creed was so broad that he considered
not the faults of men, but loved them for their virtues.
In 1856 Dr. Stiles married Sarah Ann Woodward, dau. of Rev.
Charles Moore Woodward. Mrs. Stiles died in 1903. Their sur-
viving children are Dr. Chas. Butler Stiles and Mrs. Elliott
(Stiles) Truesdale, wife of Fred. E. Truesdale of Hill View, N. Y.
Resolution adopted by the Board of Trustees of the New
York Genealogical and Biographical Society on the occasion of
the death of Dr. Henry Reed Stiles, Jan. 7, 1909:
"The Board of Trustees of this Society record this tribute to
the memory of Henry Reed Stiles, A.M., M.D.: That he gave a
life to the cause of Education, to Genealogy, to the enoblement
of the standards of his profession and to civic righteousness."
CLUES FROM ENGLISH ARCHIVES
Contributory to American Genealogy.
By J. Henry Lea and J. R. Hutchinson.
It is well known that the English records contemporary with
the landing of the Pilgrim Fathers contain a wealth of infor-
mation concerning the family history of the early colonists, not
only of the New England but of the Southern settlements. The
searchers of the Probate and Chancery Records, Feet of Fines,
Manorial Court and Plea Rolls, Inquisitions Post Mortem, Star
Chamber Court, Ship Money Tax, Subsidies and Parish Registers
have found these documents a veritable treasure mine of genea-
logical information. It is proposed in this and succeeding articles

early American families with their English ancestors.

This long and interesting will of the unfortunate emulator of
Smith and Raleigh in the endeavor to found a colony on the
Delaware, is of much value, not only as confirming such historical
records as exist regarding him but also in furnishing details,
hitherto unknown, in the lite of this most strenuous and turbulent
gentleman. Born of one of the most ancient of English families,
the Plowdens of Plowden, in Salop., who had been there seated
before the earliest extant records, his first known ancestor was
Roger Plowden who accompanied King Richard to Palestine in
the 12th Century. He was himself grandson of the eminent
jurist of his own name,* by his second but only surviving son,
Francis Plowden, Esq., whose second son he was.f
He married, about 1610, Mabel,! daughter of Peter Mariner of
Wanstead, Hants., a lady who brought him an ample jointure but,
we fear, little domestic peace or happiness, and, although she
bore him eighteen children, as we learn by his will, he was twice
divorced from her and spent two years or more in the Fleet
prison rather than pay her alimony, S while in his will he makes
a scathing arraignment of her conduct, tempered by an ample
provision for her future.
His life seems to have been an adventurous one: in 1634 he
was in Ireland, as we learn from the Visitation of Oxon. for that
In 1642 he came with Evelin to Virginia, and in [643 with
two faithful retainers, was marooned on Smith's Island, off the
coast, by his mutinous crew* of servants, from which hi
rescued by a passing vessel, and fell into the hands of the Swedish

The son, Thomas Plowden, seems to have inherited under the
will of his fatner and his own will, proved in the Prerogative
Court of Canterbury in 1698, and the certified verbatim copy of
the Patent to New Albion may be found in the article by Prof. G.
B. Keen in the Pennsylvania Magazine in 1883.! His third son,
Francis Plowden, succeeded his father by his will and came to
America to prosecute his rights and died in Maryland. His
descendants registered their pedigree in 1774 at the College of
Arms in London, but the title of Earl of Albion was never
assumed after 1659. There is no trace of any such earldom to be
found in the Irish records either as Albion or Plowden. J

the authorship of a fierce attack on their former associates which
was issued in July, 161 2, entitled "The Prophane Schisme of the

He was sent out to Virginia by Richard Wiseman, Nathaniel

well in 1 6 1 9 S although, as he represented his settlement (after-
wards called the Isle of Wight Plantation) in the Assembly of

probate of his will informs us that he soon succumbed to the

IQ09.] The Matthysen-Banckers of Sleepy Hollow. 87
THE MATTHYSEN-BANCKERS OF SLEEPY HOLLOW.
By Edw. Double day Harris.
The name of Laurens Matthyzen first occurs in the records of
the Dutch Church of New York, March 28, 16S6, in connection
with the baptism of his daughter Anneken. Thereafter, until
his disappearance from the records in 1704, his surname appears
as Matthyzen, Matthyszen, Mathyse and Mathys.
The name, however, under one or the other of its diverse
spellings, is found upon the church records at a much earlier
date. May 28, 1651, Abraham and Isaac, sons of Anthony Mat-
thyszen, a negro, were baptized, followed in 1654 by Cosmus,
and in the next year by Cecilia, of the same father. The parents
were probably members of the free colored colony, rather than
iwned by one of the burgomaster families of the town.
[n 1662, Anna, daughter of Nicolaes Matthysz and Barentie
Dircks, was baptized, but as subsequent baptisms of children of
Cornel is and Barentie Dircks are recorded, it is probable that the
scribe erred in the father's Christian name, and that Cornelius
should be read for Nicholas in the first instance — particularly as
nelis Matthyszen, van Stockholm, en Barentje Dircks, j. m.
van Meppel," had been joined in marriage, Feb. 26, 1661. The
children of this pair were (besides Anna, 1662) Mat thy S, 1665,
Hendrick, 1669, Catharina, 1676, Sarah and Rachel, 1681, Cor-
nelius appears also as a witness to the baptism of Barbertie,
daughter of Jan Adamszen and Geertruyd Dircks in 1666.
Annetje Matthys, the wife of Jan Ilendrickszcn, was the
mother of a son Matthys, baptized in 167 1. She was undoubtedly
the young maid of Fort Orange who was married to Jan Hen-
dricks at Kingston in 1668, and there resided.
One Jeams Matthyszen (and Matthys) was witness to bap-
tisms in 1672 and 1677.
Lysbeth Matthys and Matthys Janszen had daughter Engeltje
baptized in 1678.
The names of the witnesses in the various baptisms noted
fail to suggest any connection between these Matthyszens and
the Laurens Matthysen whose issue we attempt to follow. He
might easily have been a son of Cornelius above, but nothing
has been found to indicate any relationship with either the
New York or Kingston families oi the name.
The wife of Laurens' Matthysen was Tanneken Hendricks.
Their family record, as gathered from the baptismal book of the
Dutch Church in New York, is as follows:

Fredrik, of Lourense Matthyse and Jannetje Hen-
drix, bap. May 22, 1698; wit.: Brant Schuyler and
Catharina Cortlant.
The occurrence of the name of Philipse as a witness, sug-
gesting an examination of the Sleepy Hollow records, the search
there is rewarded by the discovery of this entry:
Adolff, of Lourens Mathyse and Jannitje, his wife,
bap. , 1 701; wit.: Gerridt Van Weerdt and
Catharina Phillips.
Then follows again in the New York records:
Rombout, of Louwerens Mathys and Niese de Groot,
bap. Nov. 5, 1704; wit.: Philippus Van Cortlant and
Catharina Philips, widow.
There is no further mention of Laurens Matthysen in con-
nection with the Dutch Church of New York. But the Sleepy
Hollow records continue the history. In 1705 he was a witness
there at the baptisms of a child of Andries Van Dyk and his wife
Geesje, and of a child of Lodewyck Ackerman and his wife
Hillegond. Then follows:
Barber (Barbara), of Lourens Mathysse and Niese, his
wife, bap. June 16, 1707; wit.: Bastiaen Michgielze
and Galant, his wife.
In 1709 Lourens and his wife Niesje witnessed the baptism of
a son of Andries Van Dyk and his wife Geesje. Then in 1711,
comes this entry:
Johannes, of Louwrens Banckert and Niessje, his
wife, bap. March 21, 171 1; wit.: Abraham Van Dyck
and Marytje de Groot.
And on the same day Louwrens and Niessje Bankert witnessed
the baptism of Jenneke, the daughter of Hendrick Kranckheyt
and Antje, his wife. After the entry of 1709 the surname of
Matthyse or Matthysen disappears forever from the Sleepy
Hollow records, and Laurens Matthyse, his wife Niesse, and his
children, thereafter are known as Banckens or Banckers. On
21st March, 1710, the son Hendrick "Bankert" and his sister
Mary tie (Maria) witnessed the baptism of Louwrens, the son of
Hendrick Krankheyt, this being the earliest appearance of the
name of Bancker, in any of its forms, upon the record. In the
Register of Members of the Sleepy Hollow Church No. 57 is
"Antje Banckert, wife of Henry Krankheyt," and Nos. 59 and 60
are "Lowrens Mathysse Banckert and Niese De Groot, his wife."
1909.] The Mat thy sen- Banders of Sleepy Hollow. 89
The church was organized in 1697, and was put under the pastoral
care of Domine Bertholf of Hackensack, but the member list was
not compiled until some years later, thus accounting for Laurens
and Niese being recor 1 kerts instead of Matthys.
In Dr. Cole's presentation of the old record book of the con-
gregation it is set forth that "after Lord Frederick Philipse had
bought and come into possession of his land tract ( /. e. the manor
ilipsburgh) he contracted with a number of people to come
and live upon it without charge, that the land might be quickly
put to use and settled." This was about the year 16S0. The
second wife of the lord of the manor was Catharina, daughter of
Orloff Stevens Van Cortlandt, and widow of Jan der Val. The
Philipse marriage was contracted in 1692, and it seems very
probable that Laurens Matthysen, who had been living near
enough to New York (perhaps on the manor of Van Cortlandt)
ive been enrolled in the Dutch church there fol
trina der Val when she removed to the Philipse home. She
had been, with her first husband, witness to the baptism of the
first child of Laurens and Janneken in 1686. Stephen Van Cort-
landt -sed the baptism of the second child in 16SS, and
in 1696, Catharina again, as Philipse's wife, witnessed the baptism
of Rombout. Then in 1698, in 1701 and in 1704, she stood suc-
cessively for Frederick, Adolff, and the second Rombout, all
last being the Philipse family names. It is easy to believe
that Laurens Matthysen was one of those desirable people that
the lord of the manor sought as settlers. Lady Catharina was
instrumental in gathering the church at Sleepy Hollow, her
name heading the list of members, and naturally Laurens and
his wife transferred their association thereto from the more
distant congregation in New York.
The date of Laurens Banker's death has not been learned.
He was certainly alive in 1735, anc^ must then have been an
aged man, probably as old as seventy-five years. His second
(Agnes), was also alive at that time, 1735.

* It is worthy of notice that this is the only instance, so far discovered,

Besides the children of Laurens Bancker already enumerated,

possibly three others. Antje, the wife of Hendrick Krankhcyt,
we know from the church record of Sleepy Hollow, to have been
a Bancker, and intimately connected with the head of the family.
She may have been a younger sister, or a dau. b. before the
beginning of the New York record of his children. It is not
impossible that she was the dau. "Anneken" who was bap. in
1686.
One Catharina Bancke in 1718 and 1720 was a witness at the
baptisms of two Krankheyt children. She was probably one of
the younger children of Laurens, and named for the lady of the
manor.
' »ne Jacob Bancke in 17 16 and 1720 was a witness at the bap-
tisms of two Boeckhout children, and March 15, 1723-4, Jacob
Bancke, j. m., and Raghel Montras, j. d., both b. in and living at
Philipsburg, were m. He was probably a younger son of Laurens
and named for Jacob Van Cortlandt. His children were:

Hendrick3 Bancker (Hendrick,3 Laurens1), was bap. in Sleepy

Matus, j. d., b. on Lang Uandt, both living in Philipsburg, were

i. Ernie,4 bap. April 4, 1753; wit.: Barent Duyster and
his wife.
ii. Fiebie, bap. Nov. 5, 1756; wit.: Ary Buys and his wife.
The father removed to New York, and in the records of the
Dutch Church there we read: "Hendrik Bancker Wedr van
Philipsburg and Marytje Calfort Wede van Hoog Duitsland, beide
wonende alhier," Nov. 16, 1765. Mrs. Colford was the widow of
William, and her maiden name was Byrd. Of her Colford chil-
dren, Sally, m. a Savage and left descendants; Eleanor m. John
Jones and her children m. into the Schermerhorn, Pendleton and
Mason families, and Mary m. George McAlpine. Hendrick
Bancker's children by his second wife were Susan, who m. Jacob
Clinch; Nancy, who m. John Boyer, and a son Hendrick or Henry
of New York.
Hendrick' Bancker (Frederic,' Laurens1), was bap. in
Sleepy Hollow, Oct. 28, 1727. Hendrick Banker, j. m., and
Catrina Van Tessel, j. d., were m. Nov. 17, 1750, both natives of
and resident at Philipsburg. Their issue were:
i. Fredrick,4 bap. Oct. 8, 1751; wit.: Gorus Banker* and
Jannittye.
ii. Altye, bap. Oct. 28, 1753; wit.: Jacob and Aaltje Van
Tessel.
iii. Jan, bap. June 17, 1755; wit.: Johannis Martlinghs and
his wife.
This Hendrick was of Capt. Requa's company in service
during the Revolutionary War. He d. Oct., 1804, at the age of 78,
and was buried in the shadow of the church that his grandparents
Laurens and Janneken Hendricks had been instrumental in
founding.
* This name, Gorus (George) Banker, does not again occur in the Sleepy
Hollow records, and it may be that the person designated was Tomus (Thomas),
the oldest son of Frederic and Aeltie Storm.

LISTS OF GERMAN'S FROM THE PALATINATE WHO
CAME T( l ENGLAND IX 1709.
(Continued from Vol. XL. p. 54 ol the Record.)
The following: lists arc copied from the original documents
preserved in the British Museum Library, London, England, and
should be of the greatest genealogical interest to those families in
the States of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and else-
where, which claim descent from the so-called Palatine settlers.
These lists have never before been printed to the knowledge of
the Editor, and it should be noted that the word " son " or " sons "
and "dau." or "daus." followed by figures denote that the heads
of the family had as many sons or daughters, as there are figures,
and that these sons and daughters were of the respective ages
denoted by the figures. The word "wife" indicates that the
head of the family was married and that the wife was living.
The abbreviations "Ref," " Luth.," "Bap." and "Cath.," mean
that the family belonged to the Reformed, Lutheran, Baptist or
Catholic Churches.
Board of Trade Miscellaneous. Vol. 2 D. 64.
The second list of 1193 Palatines lately come over from Ger-
many into this kingdom taken at Walworth, 27th of May, 1709,
by Mr. John Tribbeko and Mr. Ruperti, German Ministers.

■f Rector from 1568 to 1606 (when he died) and also at the same time
Rector of Lambourne.
% Rector from 1522 to 1524 when he died. Respecting the term parson
Blackstone says it is the "most legal beneficial and honourable title that a
Parish priest can enjoy." Cripps says: "The Parson is the Rector of a church
Parochial. Such an one, and he only, is said ' vicam sen pcrsomam ecclesia
gerere.'" Others derive the title from the French ' paroissien' (parochial) be-
cause he was the resident priest of the Parish, and not sent out from a
monastery, as a vicar would be.

and Catharina van den Berk.
77 iii. Catharina, bap. Jan. 30, 1723; wits.: Richard Piero and
Johannes van den Berg.
73. Rachel3 Hoppe (Matthijs A.,3 Andries'). Her marriage to
Jillis Maundeviel occurred in N. Y., Dec. 2, 1721, where the
church records give their issue, viz.:
78 i. Davidt,4 bap. March 7, 1722; wits.: Davidt Mandeviel
and Marijtje, his wife.
79 ii. Matheus (twin), bap. Aug. 17, 1726; wits: Mathijs

81 iv. Anna, bap. Dec. 2, 1739; wits.: Andries Hoppe and
Elizabeth Bras, his wife.
74. Johannes* Hoppe (John Hopper the Elder) (Matthijs A.,3
Andries1), was elected Collector for the Outward, Bowery Division,
Sept. 29, 1733, and served for two years when he was made con-
stable Sept. 29, 1735. A member of Capt. Gerard Stuyvesant's
Company of N. Y. Militia in 1738, he served as lieutenant in
Gen. Harmer's campaign against the Indians; was severely
wounded and left for dead. He finally recovered. On May 30,
1728, Maria van Norden became his wife, and his will, dated Oct.
12, 1778, was proved July 19, 1779. It is not certain how he
became possessed of the Hopper farm in Bloomingdale. It would
be a fairer presumption that his father conveyed it to him than
that he inherited it by right of primogeniture (as the conveyan-
cers agree), for to assume otherwise would have to dispose of the
elder son Andries and his descendants. By the terms of the will
of 1778, the farm was to be divided into six equal parts among
* Richard Perrow, an Englishman from New Barbadoes, m. Feb. 2, 1721,
Geertje Hoppe, a young maid of Hackensack, living at the Great Kill. (The
outlet of this stream was at present 42nd Street and the North River.) Fifteen
acres of land were conveyed to Richard Pero of New Barbadoes in West
Jersey by Mathijs Hoppe of the Groet Kill in the Outward, by deed dated
May 29, 1722 (L. 30, 263). Consideration .£250; description: all that a certain
Messuage, Tenement House and Parcell of Land Situate, laying and being at
a place Called the Bowry in the Outward of the City of New York aforesaid,
adjoining and being bound on the Southside by the Land of Gilos Shalloy, late
deceased, and on the East side by a certain Swamp and the land of Jan
Pretosge. Having on the northside to the Land of Mrs. Cortlandt and Maritie
Solomons and on the west by the Highway, the whole containing 15 acres or
thereabouts, being more or less and that in such manner as it hath been held
and enjoyed upwards one and twenty years in a Peacable and Quiet Possession
and Seizin by Adrian van Schaick and Rebecca van Schaick, deceased.
Valentine locates this property on the Bowery near Stanton Street. It is
more likely that the Swamp here mentioned was that from which Minitie-water
(little brook) flowed, as Mrs. van Cortland held land in the neighborhood. The
land of Solomons (later the Horn tract) extended on the south to 21st Street
(Abingdon Road) from Bloomingdale Road (the Highway) to near Seventh
Avenue. Minetta-water joined Bestavaar's Killetje or grandfather's creek on
the van Cortlandt farm and the creek was named for him.

the survivors, viz.: Matthew, John, Andrew, Yallas and Jemima,
the wife of John Horn of the Bloomingdale Road, as Riker's
Harlem has it. The remaining portion went to his grandchildren,
the issue of his deceased son Wessell. A map was to be drawn
showing such division and six tickets prepared and numbered
with the numbers of said six lots, whereupon the said six devisees,
their heirs and assigns or guardians for them, were each to draw
■ket and the number thereon should be that of the lot he
or she should inherit by the devise. The farm road from the
Commons to the river was to run through each one of the six lots
"to always be and remain free to any or either of said devisees
to pass and repass without any hindrance to or from his or her
portion of the farm." Articles of agreement were entered into
by the heirs carrying out the above directions on Feb. 4, 1782.
• No. 2 on said map, was the family burial ground and this
was exempted from sale to be resi ver for that purpose.
The courts some fifteen years ago decided that the terms of this
agreement were not explicit enough to exempt this ground from
other uses and the site of that portion thereof which was not
condemned for the opening of Ninth Avenue and 50th Str<
now occupied by an apartment house. Lane was
a uniform breadth of 28 feet throughout its length.

* Garrit Stryker, one of the best-known residents of Flatbush, who was
familiarly known there and in the old county towns of Kings County as " Uncle
Garry," died on Friday night at his house, 873 Flatbush Avenue, in his seventy-
second year. He belonged to the old Dutch family of Strykers who settled in
Flatbush more than two centuries ago. In early life he conducted a general
village store at Church and Flatbush Avenues, which was known as "Stryker's
Corner." He was a member of the old Kings County Troop, a militia organi-
zation which was disbanded several years ago. He has been an earnest
republican since the party was organized, and a leading member of the Flat-
Dush Reformed Church. He leaves a widow and two daughters. — N. Y. Sun,

igog.] Bacon Family. — Origin of the Surname. I 33
BACON FAMILY— ORIGIN OF THE SURNAME.
Bv Leon Brooks Bacon.
Grimbaldus, a Norman gentleman, it is said, came into Eng-
land at the time of the Conquest, in company with William de
Warenne, Bar! of Surrey, to whom he was related. He was an
early tenant of Letheringsete, near Holt in Suffolk, and married
and had issue: Randulph, Edmund and Ranulf, known as Ralph,
who resided at Thorp, in Norfolk, and took the name Bacon. His
place was called Bacons-Thorp. The family of de Warenne
takes its name from the castle of Varenne, called later Bellen-
combre, on the river Varenne, Department Siene-Inferieure,
and was founded in England by William de Warenne, first
of Surrey, who held at one time great estates in twelve English
counties. He married Gundred, a child or stepchild of the
Conqueror, and a sister of Gherbode, or Gerbod, another child of
William the First, and was created Earl of Chester.
There are no records in England before the Conqueror, the
principal families descending chiefly from the victorious in-
vaders, and no history of any family much before the eleventh
century. Joseph Foster, an eminent genealogist, says in reference
to the Bacons: "The early descent of this family, which was
very widely spread through Suffolk, is variously set forth, as may
be seen on reference to Davy's Manuscript Collections relating
to the County."
In Collectanea < icncalogica he has given a long list of the
manuscript pedigrees in the British Museum which are of im-
portance to students of this family history (Genealogy of the
Bacon Family, Add. Ms [9,1 16). The early history of the family
is in a state of bewilderment, the various conjectun s have been
hazai' of the surname. Lower, in A Diction-
ary of Family Names, say con is a seigniory in Nor-
mandy, and that the name is in the Battle Roll. William I
in 10S2, endowed the Abbey of the Holy Trinity at Caen, in
Normandy (Taylor's Roman de Rou). lie also .says that from
their connection with Bayeux they were sometimes Latinized

Exchequer is Roger Bacon, said to have been a brother of Philip
de Colombieres (Taylor's Note in Wace's Chronicle 243). The
method of obtaining the surname of Bacon is interesting. Ralph,2
son of Grimbaldus, was known by his place of residence as Ralph
de Bacons-Thorp. The word Thorp is Saxon for village, Becuns-
Thorp meaning Beech-tree Village. The early monumental
brasses have effigies under trees, an evident allusion to the name.
Sir William Bacon, or Sir Robert Bacon, is taken notice of
among knights bearing banners in the reign of Philip the Third
of France (1 270-1 285), and bore for his arms a beech tree. Roger*
de Baconsthorp, son of Ralph, a was father of Robert,* who as-
sumed the name of Bacon, and to make his identity clear during
the change of patronymic, was styled Robert-Fitz-Roger, (Robert,
son of Roger). He was a person of great power, and cousin of
Geoffrey Ridel, Bishop of Ely. This may have been only a
resumption of an ancient Norman surname which is still existing
in the North of France.

Registration of Pedigrees.
For many years individuals interested in their personal Pedigrees have
experienced the necessity for some Official Bureau where these Pedigrees
could be formally registered for the benefit of posterity.
In England some centuries ago this want was felt and its need supplied by
the establishment of the Heralds' College. In the prosecution of its work in
the earlier centuries, this College sent its Heralds into the various counties of
England and there recorded the Pedigrees of important county families and
exercised legal jurisdiction over those families in their use of Coats-of-Arms.
The information thus gathered was known as the Herald's Visitations for
these counties; and the results of their investigations have in many instances
been subsequently embodied in printed volumes known as the " Visitations of
Sussex," etc., etc.
These Visitations have ceased years ago, but the Heralds' College still
exists for the distinct purpose of permitting those of English birth and descent
to formally record their Pedigrees, and to establish their right to bear Coats-of-
Arms.
In this country within the recollection of the present generation the
necessity of formal Registration of Pedigrees was likewise felt, and was
recognized within certain limited spheres by the establishment of the various
patriotic and lineage societies which have sprung into existence during that
period.
Each and every one of these societies has accomplished most excellent
work, within the limited field of its individual usefulness; and it is impossible
to overestimate the value of the information which each of these societies has
collected and now possesses within the sanctity of its archives.
To a greater or less extent each and every one of these societies however
is imbued with an idea that the Pedigrees of its members are sacred and must
not be published in full for the benefit of the genealogical public at large.
It therefore has resulted that, while these societies have accumulated a vast
amount of most valuable genealogical information, yet, from the policy which
they pursue, they have all, with remarkably few exceptions, failed in placing
in published detailed form for the benefit of their members, and for that of the
genealogical public at large, the information contained in their archives, as
represented by the Pedigrees of their individual members; which Pedigrees
are the titles to membership in these various societies.
looa.] I 3 5
The original Pedigrees of the members in many instances consist of one
single copy; in some cases however duplicate copies exist, one filed with the
| and the duplicate hied with the general society at its central
11 ters.
While it is improbable, yet it is possible, that simultaneous fire in both the
local and general headquarters of these societies might result in the absolute
loss of the valuable details of these Pedigrees, for the very reason that up to the
present no steps have been taken to publish the Pedigrees in their fullest form.
If they were so published, it would be practically impossible to destroy all of
the published copies which would be located broadcast in the numerous
libraries of this country.
The New York Genealogical and Biographical Societj predates
the value of the information above referred to now locked up in the archives of
these various Societies; and also appreciates the possibility of their loss to
posterity for the above stated reasons; and, while not desiring to criticise the
attitude of anv of these particular societies, yet it feels that they have failed in
their duty to their members in so far as they have neglected to publish in the
fullest detailed form the Pi these members lor the reason that the
New York Genealogical and Biographical Society takes the broad and proper
stand that these Pedigrees should not be hoarded foi the selfish satisfaction of
particular Societies, but should be published for the benefit of all interested in
geneal
The lineage books of these various societies referred to should be the most
valuable source of genealogical information obtainable in this country. How-
ever, from a practical genealogical standpoint, the genealogical student has
long been impressed with the uselessness of the average lineage books o( these
es, due to the fact that in the large majority of cases they furnish no
definite information as to what the distinct line of descent of their members
from certain ancestors may be; and almost never give in detail the vital facts
of the successive generations of this line of descent.
Due to the above stated existing condition of affairs, the New York Genea-
logical and Biographical Society, after much deliberation thereupon, has
established a Department of its Society for the distinct purpose of Registration
of Pedigrees of any and all who may desire to take advantage of the oppor-
tunity thus off)
In the establishment of this mw Department, Pedigrees will be i
upon Application Blanks regularly prepared therefor, by the New York
Genealogical and Biographical Society; and will be examined and passed upon
-ir correctness by competent genealogical authority; and will bl
lequently published in volumes of not less than two hundred and fifty Pedi-
grees each, and delivered to Applicants for Registration whose Pedigrei
Contained in that particular volume published.
In publishing these Pedigrees, the vital facts such as birth, marriage and
death of the two progenitors of each generation will be published m full.
In due course of time these IUCI I - will line] their p-sliiii: place
upon the shelves of the principal libraries of this country, as well as in tin-
libraries of the individual applicants; anil thus the valuable information thus
ecluded from any possibility of loss which human ingenuity
can prevent.

The field of this Department is as above outlined of the broadest possible

Society, if possible, to make this Department for the American public all and
more than what the Heralds' College is for the English people.
Full information as to the course to be pursued by those desiring to
Register Pedigrees together with literature explaining cost, etc., will be sent to

SOCIETY PROCEEDINGS.
January 8th, 1909.
The Fortieth Annual Meeting of the New York Genealogical and Bio-

$3,285.19 for the year, and that present market value of its invested funds were
$5,605.13. Owing to the energy of the Librarian and Assistant-Librarian the
receipts for Life Membership increased $325, and for Entrance Fees $310 over
like receipts for last year.
The Chairman of the Executive Committee, Mr. John Reynolds Totten,
reported in detail the present condition of the Society, the gain of 50 active and
56 total memberships on the membership roll, the subscribers to the Record
being 311, a gain of 10; a net gain of $394 in the membership account;
the fact that the Record receipts exceeded its cost by $321.30, and that the
receipts from the Society Publications, Room and Hall rents were on the
increase. The chairman further read the proposed form of circular, etc., for
the registration and publication of pedigrees.
The Librarian, Mr. John Reynolds Totten, reported that during the past
year 936 volumes were acquired by donation, 259 by exchange and 470 by
purchase; that the total visitors to the Library were 1,867, and the number of

NOTES.
Corey. — A correction. Some time ago the undersigned was sent by a
professional genealogist, an absti will oi f oh n Corey, with an inter-
i dau., Sarah, added. The original will of John Corey, as recorded in
/.. /.. Session Book No. /, at Riverhead, from which the followinj
names, 1 Feb., 1684-5, '" 'he order below, Son fohn Corey, who is to I
bra^s kettle, the great Bible, chest and uh.it was 1:1 it, etc.; Son Jacob Corty,
I ram Corey, who is to have his
father's lot at Oysterponds, Lower Neck, he to pay half the price of it to his
brother Jacob Corey, 5/ to his brother Isaac Corey, and to settle all his father's
debt, etc.
\ter Hannah is to have the lot by the mill, her dau. Hannah is also
named. Daughter A bigaile, finishes the list of John Corey's children.
John Corey's will was proved at Southold, 2 Oct., 168;, by John Tuthill,
Thos. Mapes, Sr., and Samuel Wines. No inventory is appended, and his son
Abram was appointed executor.
There are said to be strong reasons for supposing that Sarah may have
been a dau. of John Corey above, but there is no proof.

This volume is a splendid example of what an accurate and exhaustive
family genealogy should be, for in persistant research, selection of matter, style
of composition and arrangement of material its author stands in the front rank
of modern genealogists. The work is divided, first, into a brief statement of

While the existence of early manuscript records of the family afforded a

8vo, pp. 489. Full Index. Hartford. 1908.
The material in this volume supplements that already published in 1889
and 190 1 in regard to the service of Connecticut men in the Revolutionary War.
The greater part of the volume is made up of names of those who were in the
Continental Regiments of the Connecticut line, to which the rolls of companies
in service not previously printed have been added. The greatest care has been
taken to include every name of record and to index the names under the
correct spelling. The book will be a great acquisition to all attempting to
determine the patriotism of their Connecticut ancestry and reflects great credit
upon the Historical Society and its officers. The arrangement of these long
lists is effective, the printing, paper and binding displays good taste, and trie
volume is a workmanlike production. The Connecticut Historical Society may
well feel proud of perpetuating the Revolutionary War Records in so excellent
a form.

How the discovery was made, what it was and how the evidence is beyond

t> , Publications of the American Jewish Historical Society, No. 17.
Paper, Octavo, pp. 266, with Index. Published by the Society. Baltimore. 1909.
It is a strange fact that this ancient people, of so great historical interest,
should until a comparatively recent date have given little attention to collecting
and preserving the annals of their communal and family life. The genealogy
of the Jews was set forth with particular niceness in the Old Testament, but
during the persecution of the early Christian Era and the Middle Ages doubt-
less little time or attention could be given by the patriarchs to preserving aught
but the bare record of their misfortunes, wanderings and religious traditions.
The object of this Society is to collect and publish material bearing upon
Ancient Jewish History and no more valuable contributions can be made to our
reading public than these records, so admirably gathered together and pub-
lished.
This number contains an important vindication of Dr. Roderigo Lopez,
Queen Elizabeth's Jewish Physician; the Jews of New Jersey from the earliest
time to 1850; the early Jewish Colony in Western Guiana; Gen. Grant's
Military Orders against the Jews; Lincoln and the Jews; the History of the
Sheftalls of Georgia and other articles of interest.
It may perhaps be urged that the importance of some of the articles, in
this, as well as in the past publications of the Society, are more local than
general and that the records are meagre as to genealogical data, but although
the Jews as a nation are as old as history, their identity with this country is but
recent. More will be heard of them in the future under a liberal jurisdiction
and as a part of a free people, and it is undoubtedly to the credit of this Society
to act as the pioneer association for Jewish historical research.
The volume is admirably printed and a scholarly production, the only
regret being that it is in paper covers rather than in a binding proper to pre-
serve its valuable contents.
Massachusetts Historical Society, The Commemoration of the
Ter-Centenary of the Birth of John Milton at the First Church in
Boston, on December oth, 1908. Paper, Small Quarto, pp. 31.
This record of the exercises by descendants of the early New England
Puritans in honor of the greatest member of the Puritan Triumvirate, viz.; John
Hampden, Oliver Cromwell and John Milton, contains two interesting portraits
of Milton, three of his Sonnets, facsimile title pages of the first printed editions
of Milton s Minor Poems, /64J, of Paradise Lost, and of Paradise Regained
together with addresses by Charles Francis Adams and William Everett, D. D.
It is curious to note that notwithstanding the literary claims of the early
New England Colonies no copy of Paradise Lost can be found on any Massa-
chusetts book shelf prior to 1767, no American edition of this great poem was
pnblished before 1777, and his complete works were not printed in this country
until 1853, although the re-prints in the Spectator of Addison must have kept
the early colonists familiar with the greatest of the Puritan writers.
Henry Codman Potter — Memorial Addresses delivered before
the Century Association, December 12th, 1908. Paper, Octavo, pp. 34.
Privately printed. New York. 1908.
These addresses made by Hon. John Bigelow, Nicholas Murray Butler,
Marvin R. Vincent, Richard Watson Gilder and Joseph H. Choate, are fitting
tributes to the late Bishop of New York, and an appropriate memorial to the
churchman, scholar and friend from his fellow Centurians.
It was the late Rev. Dr. Potter's fortune to guide the Episcopacy of New
York in a period of municipal expansion and progress, filled with civic and
ethical problems, and while a free nation has ever been jealous of paternalism
and religious interference it is undoubtedly to the credit of this eminent church-

PEDIGREE CHARTS.
The New York Genealogical and Biographical Society
226 West 58th Street, New York.
This Society has for sale official forms of genealogical charts called
" Register of Pedigrees." These registers are of two varieties, called " single "
and "double" charts. They are each paper covered books of 11 x 16 inches in
size, properly ruled and printed for the insertion of names of ancestors in succes-
sive generations. The single charts consist of 17 pages, and when filled in will
give all of the ancestors in all ramifications for q generations, arranged so that the
family name of each of the 16 great-great-grandparents occupies a page. Family
names appear on the marginal index which is formed by the indentation of each
leaf. The back of each leaf is arranged for special memoranda concerning the
persons named on the page facing it.
The double charts are practically two single charts combined. The object
being to devote the first half of the chart to the registration of the complete pedi-
gree of the male line, the second half for a like registration of the female line, and
the double chart therefore provides for the registration of 10 generations in both
male and female lines.
The price of these charts to members of this Society is as follows:
Single Charts, 75 cts. Double Charts, $1.50
To those who are not members of the Society:
Single Charts, $1.00 Double Charts, $2.00
Members of the Society, or others who purchase these Charts and fill them in as fully as pos-
sible and present them to the Librarian of the Society for filingin the Society's Library, will re-
ceive a new one in exchange therefor without additional cost. These charts may be purchased by
application to the Librarian.
It is the desire of the Trustees that the members will supply themselves with these registers,
fill them out as far as possible and file them with the Society. When received these will be bound
in volumes, fully indexed, and will thus form a record of inestimable value to the Society.
Those who have in their possession full information as to their individual ancestry are espec-
ially urged to obtain these Charts, fill them in and file them with the Society, as information of this
nature is very frequently lost to posterity owing to negligence on the part of those possessing it to
make record thereof, in special depositories provided for that purpose.

JOHN HARSEN RHOADES.
liv Hopper Striker Mott.
The paternal ancestors of the subject of this biography were
English and Welsh, the branch which came to this country
settling in Massachusetts. The father of Mr. Rhoades was born
in that State and removed, as a child, with his parents to Manlius,
near Syracuse, N. V., and afterwards to Skaneatcles, where is
situated the old farm which yet remains in the possession of the
family. John Harsen Rhoades was born in New York City,
Oct. 26, 1838, the son of Lyman Rhoades, Sr., member of the
Pearl Street drygoods firm of Rhoades, Weed & Co., and was
ited in private schools, lie began his business career at an
early age, entering the ston Spring, Bradley & Buffum
', X. V., at the age of 17. Later, he became an
employee of Woodward, Lawrence & Co., and when 25 years old,
was made junior partner in the drygoods commission house of
Leonard. achofield & Co. The firm afterwards changed to
Leonard & Rhoades, to Leonard, Rhoades & Grosvenor, then to
Rhoades & Grosvenor, and finally to Grosvenor & Carpenter,
He retired from this line of business in 1877, at the age of 38.
He became President of the Northern Dispensary at the age of
34 and Vice-President of the Eye and Ear Infirmary at 40.
It was, however, as a banker that Mr. Rhoades made his
mark. Having become a trustee of the Greenwich Savings Bank
y continuously tor more than 35
years and was for man Ini
he bui 1 'in- Presidency of that institution, and 1 ontinued
to discharge the duties of thai oil,, .- to the date of his death.
The high position which Mr. Rhoades attained in financial
circles is shown by the number of importanl posts in- held and
by the weight given to his views on banking aif.urs, particularly
such as related to savings banks, which were th( t his
il solicitude ami study As chief exe ■■' the
.. . ition of the State, an organization designed
to protect the inti ivm^s bank deposito • oded
its in: nt that it has successfully
ICtment of laws inimical to them.
I 24 John Harsen Rhoades. [July,
Among the positions of prominence which Mr. Rhoades
filled, should be mentioned the directorships of the Bank of
America, the U. S. Trust Co., the Greenwich Bank, and the
Northern Dispensary, the Presidency of the Eye and Ear In-
firmary and the trusteeship of the Roosevelt Hospital. These
offices he retained till the close of his life. He was also a
director of the Candelaria Mining Co., the Corralitos Co., the
Lawyers' Title Insurance and Trust Co., Lincoln Trust Co.,
Madison Safe Deposit Co., U. S. Shoe Manufacturing Co., First
Vice-President and Director of the Woodbridge Co., and a trustee
of the Washington Trust Co. Besides the above, he served as
Director of the N. Y. Zoological Society, the N. Y. Botanical
Gardens and the American Museum of Natural History. He
was a member of the Union League, Century, Metropolitan,
City, Lawyers' and Lotos Clubs and of the American Geo-
graphical, St. Nicholas and Municipal Art Societies. At one
time, he was a trustee of the Women's Hospital and a Governor
of the N. Y. Hospital. As a member of the Chamber of Com-
merce he acted as chairman of its committee of finance and
served as the executor of the estate of George Bliss, late of the
firm of Morton, Bliss & Co., and I. N. Phelps.
Ever since he cast his first vote for Lincoln, Mr. Rhoades
was a staunch Republican and, though urged to go into politics,
he always refused. The weight of his name, however, was ever at
the command of his party. He was chairman of the New York
City delegation to the Indianapolis Sound Money Convention,
and took a direct concern in the affairs of his native city, where
hu was prominent in several civic movements, among them the
investigation by the Lexow Committee and that advocating
better streets. As foreman of the Grand Jury a few years since,
he rendered a noteworthy service by his forceful presentation of
irregularities then existing in the Sheriff's office. This led a
leading metropolitan paper to propose him as a suitable candidate
for Mayor. Years before any definite steps were undertaken, he
recommended the construction of a subway system. He took a
deep interest in art and accumulated a fine collection of paint-
ings. His summer home was at Seabright, New Jersey, and a
fishing camp was located at Indian Rock, Maine.
Through his mother Mr. Rhoades was connected with a long
line of noted Dutch families. Cornelia Rachel Harsen, the
daughter of Col. Cornelius Harsen, was born on the Harsen farm
in Harsenville and baptized Aug. n, 1816, by the Rev. Alexander
Gunn, pastor of the Bloomingdale Dutch Reformed Church.
She married Lyman Rhoades and died March 17, 1900. Her
father was a prominent and distinguished citizen of New York
City until his death which occurred in 1838. At the age of 20,
he became an Ensign in the 5th Regiment of Infantry, and three
years later (1807), then Captain, he was named as one of a com-
mittee of officers to organize a third regiment in the city. He
was soon transferred to the Artillery, in which he became Major
of the regiment which he assisted in forming. Thereafter, his
talents, wealth and social position secured his rapid promotion.

At the breaking out of the War of 1812, he was commissioned
Lieut. -Col. of the nth Regiment, and later in the sam<
became Commander thereof. During that war his command was
detailed to Bedloe's and Ellis's Islands, in the harbor. In early
life he was a hardware merchant in Cherry Street, and in 1817 in
the drygoods business. In 1N32 he became an incorporator of
the Erie Railroad. Among the old New York families with
which Mr. Rhoades was connected on the maternal side were the
Dyckmans, Cozines, Webbers, van Couwenhovens and Hoppers.
The Harsen mansion was built in 1701 and stood in the block
between 70th and 71st Streets, Bloomingdale Road and the
Hudson river till very recent times. It was a noted landmark in
the New York of old.
On October 29, 1862, Mr. Rhoades married Miss Annie G.,
daughter of Benjamin P. Wheelwright, and had three children:
llarsen Rhoades, Mrs. Benjamin Ogden Chisholm and
John Harsen Rhoades, Jr. He died at his residence, 559 Madison
Avenue, Dec. 6, 1906, and the funeral was held at All Souls'
Church, 4th Avenue, corner 20th Street, on Saturday, Dec. 8,
before a congregation which crowded the edifice, among whom
were delegations from the numerous organizations with which
he had been connected. A tablet to his memory has lately been
unveiled in the church. Thus ended the career of a man who
had endeared himself to all with whom he came in contact, by
his gracious personality, his genial manner and his kind dis-
position. Vale.

1 60 Lists of Germans from the Palatinate who came to England in ijoq. [July,
LISTS OF GERMANS FROM THE PALATINATE WHO
CAME TO ENGLAND IN 1709.
(Continued from Vol. XL, p. ioo, of the Record.)
The following lists are copied from the original documents
preserved in the British Museum Library, London, England, and
should be of the greatest genealogical interest to those families in
the States of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and else-
where, which claim descent from the so-called Palatine settlers.
These lists have never before been printed to the knowledge of
the Editor, and it should be noted that the word " son " or " sons "
and "dau." or "daus." followed by figures denote that the heads
of the family had as many sons or daughters, as there are figures,
and that these sons and daughters were of the respective ages
denoted by the figures. The word "wife" indicates that the
head of the family was married and that the wife was living.
The abbreviations "Ref.," " Luth.," "Bap." and "Cath.," mean
that the family belonged to the Reformed, Lutheran, Baptist or
Catholic Churches.

1 68 The Hoppe-Hoppen-Hopper Lineage. [J»'>.
THE HOPPE-HOPPEN-HOPPER LINEAGE.
By Hopper Striker Mott.
(Continued from Vol. XL., p. 128, of The Record.)
By inadvertence four of the children of Johannes3 Hoppe
were omitted from the proper place on page 125 of the April
issue of the Record. Their consecutive numbers in the lineage
should be 84, 85, 86 and 87. Having lost their position it becomes
necessary to interpolate them as 83a, 83^, 83c and 83^.
83a iii. Johannes,' b. May 21, bap. May 26, 1734; wits.: Johan-
nes Webbers and Annatje van Norden, his wife.
83^ iv. Jacomijntie (Jemima), bap. Dec. 29, 1734; wits.: her
parents. She m. John Horn, Aug. 19, 1770, on whose
farm at Broadway and 23d Street are now located
many important hotels, amusement edifices and re-
tail shops.
83*: v. Andries, bap. Feb. 27, 1736; wits.: Andries Hoppe and
Elizabeth Bras his wife.
83^ vi. Yallis, bap. Dec. 3, 1738; wits.: Jillis Maundeville and
Rachel Hoppe, his wife.
83a. Johannes* Hoppe (John Hopper the younger) (Johannes,'
Matthijs A.,* Andries'), m. (1) Wyntie, dau. of Nicholas and An-
neke (Cowenhoven) Dyckman, April 21, 1759, who was b. July 16,
1735. They had but one child, Maria,* b. March 31, and bap.
April 6, 1760; wits.: Mattheus Hoppe and Aaltje Jacobs; m.
James Striker of Striker's Bay, Sept. 23, 1780. She d. Sept. 20,
1786. By his (2) wife, Sarah, eldest dau. of Balam Johnson Coz-
ine, he had no issue. She d. Dec. 23, 1823. By commission dated
Oct. 23, 1776, he was appointed 2nd Lieut, in Col. Brewerton's
Regt. of the Outward. He had belonged to the City Militia prior
to the breaking out of hostilities and continued in the King's
service with his comrades. This was done generally at this try-
ing time. Many felt that it was the only way to preserve prop-
erty rights and save their families from indignity. Hopper re-
mained here but a few months abandoning rank by so doing and
enlisted for three years on Jan. 1, 1777, in the 4th Company, 2nd
Regt. of the Line, under Washington. He is entered as having
deserted Dec, 1779 (Archives State of N. Y., Vol. I, p. 219), but
as Comptroller James D. Roberts, the compiler, states in the
preface to N. Y. in the Revolution, Second Edition, p. 14, such a
designation must not be taken too seriously. Hopper was doubt-
less absent at roll-call. At any rate he re-enlisted July 5, 1780,
in the Lieut. -Col. 's Co. 4th Regiment. He took his discharge
Dec. 15, that he might be promoted Ensign of the 2nd Regiment
of Continental Troops (Jersey Line). A committee of Congress
says Stryker's Officers and Men of New Jersey in the Revolution,
was appointed during the summer to make the "arrangement"

of the officers of the 1st, and, and 3rd Regiment, which arrange-
ment was confirmed by a joint meeting of the Legislature on
Sept. -•<>, 1-S0. It was under this assignment that Hopper re-
ceived his commission. It is family history that he rose to the
rank of General. This cannot, however, be proved at this day,
so many of the records of service having been lost, but that he
was called by that title is in evidence. He was in receipt of a
pension in this State (Ar. V. in the Revolution, p. 272.) He owned
a pew in the Bloomingdale Dutch Reformed Church of which his
brother Andrew was a founder. Dying at the age of 85 years
and 3 months on Aug. 2, 1819, he, as also his second wife and her
mother, were interred in the Hopper plot at 50th Street and
Ninth Avenue. The funeral took place at the homestead, on the
north side of Hopper's Lane, on a site at present located on the
north side of 51st Street just west of the Albany Apartment
house. Will of record in New York Co.

Andrew Hopper's city house was on the southeast corner of
Ann Street and Broadway. This he bought in 1773 of Capt.
Thomas White (vide N. Y. Gen. & Biog. Record, Vol. XXXVII,
p. 224) and adjoined the property of Christoffel Stymetz, now
the site of the Park Bank. The Hopper and Stymets parcels,
known as 218-220 Broadway, became vested in Francis Olmstead
and were called the "City Saloon." In 1S35, this building and
the ball-room therein were rented to Alexander Welch for 10
years at $1,900 per annum, and in 1852 to Phineas T. Barnum,
where he carried on his museum. The term was for 25 years at
$10,000 and taxes and assessments. In 1865, the premises were
sold to James Gordon Bennett for $500,000 and here the N. Y.
Herald was published for many years.
The directory of 1786 makes Hopper a merchant at 71 Chat-
ham Row. On the property which he had inherited under the
agreement of 1782 above mentioned, his father had built for him
the residence which became such a conspicuous object on the
Bloomingdale Road, at later 50th Street, on the site of the pres-
ent American Horse Exchange. This was completed at the date
of his marriage and in this country seat three of his four children
were born. Here he carried on farming, the farmer's house be-
ing in the rear near present Seventh Avenue. In 1789, he was
an Elder in the Collegiate Church and a supervisor of its school,
organized in 1633 and the oldest seat of learning in the country
in continuous existence. Its building is now at 77th Street and
West End Avenue. In 1815, he was a founder and original Elder
of the Bloomingdale Dutch Reformed Church, then at what be-
came 70th Street and the Bloomingdale Road and occupied this
position until his death. On Dec. 9, 1813, its pastor, Dr. Gunn,
united him in marriage to Elizabeth Guest, the widow of Peter
Arell. He d. April 4, 1824, and his widow Elizabeth Dec. 25,
1825, having had no issue. Both were interred in the family plot.
His children were:

young as no record of him is preserved.

At the age of 18 he entered the office of the Secretary of State at
Albany as a clerk. He served as Clerk of the Assembly for two
winters and Nov. 3, 1791, he was appointed Deputy Secretary of
State under Secretary Lewis Allaire Scott. A Lieut, in the 5th
N. Y. Regt. (Col. Hughes), 1793, he was promoted Captain in the
same command, 1795. He was treasurer of the "Military Society"
instituted for improvement in the military art and consisting of
the officers of the 2nd and 5th Regts. He remained Deputy Sec-
retary under Gov. Jay until 1802, when he removed to Onondaga,
at which date he tendered his resignation from the Military. In
1799, he was admitted an honorary member of the Law Society
of Albany and in the spring of 1802, became Clerk of Onondaga
County. The following year he was appointed Supreme Court
Commissioner. He held the office of Clerk until 1818, with the
exception of one year (181 1). He acted as Marshall for taking
the Government census of 1810, at a time when Onondaga Coun-
ty comprised the present counties of Cortlandt, Onondaga, and
part of Oswego. During the war of 1812 he was keeper of mili-

efforts, he being a liberal subscriber to the endowment fund and
a trustee from its establishment to his decease.
Politically, he was a leader in the county of the Democratic
party and is said to have been "a man of remarkable kindness

Elizabeth Waldron, July 15, 1759, dau. of Benjamin Waldron, who
built on his part of the family farm in Harlem, a house which, on
his death in 1782, passed with the surrounding property to Hop-
per. This was the fact which caused Riker to mention the fam-
ily as quoted at the beginning of these articles. The quaint old
stone house stood on Second Avenue, west side, between 83d and
84th Streets. There are two pictures of it in existence. Its
sides were indented with shot from British warships. The site
was historic ground. Gen. Howe held Hoorn's Hoek with his
right division while the encampment of his left was posted across
the Island to Bloomingdale at Striker's Bay. A powerful Amer-
ican battery was located at the Hoek during the Battle of Har-
lem Heights, which was not silenced.
Irving relates how certain Pavonians started to find a more
eligible site for their habitations and the disaster which befell
them. After vanquishing some savages in one of the inlets on
the East River shore, on which bay they bestowed the name of
Kip, in honor of Hendrik Kip who was of the party, they were
shipwrecked in the rapids at a place they called Helle-gat. The
author continues: " The woe-begone heroes of Communipaw eyed
each other with rueful countenances; their squadron had been
totally dispersed by the late disaster. Some were cast upon the
western shore, where, headed by one Ruloff Hopper, they took
possession of all the country lying about the six-mile stone,
which is held by the Hoppers at this writing." However verac-

Belfast Academy. Admitted to the bar in Boston, he held there several mun-
icipal offices. In 1865 he went to Colorado, crossing the plains by mule team.
Settling in Central Citv, he served in the Territorial Senate, became interested
in several mines in Gilpin County and was a part owner of the new Boston
mine. He married in 1880, Lettie E. Hurd, the daughter of Z. Lawrence

wife Anna, his son-in-law Daniel Smith and his friend Absalom

land in 84th Street to the Mayor, etc., in 1S62 (L. 847, Conv. 610).

his estate lying in the Outward and known by the name of the
Great Kills, during her life. Then to his three sons, John, Mat-

two elder sons and his friend Jacob van Norden, executors. The
Dutch Church records state that twins, Andries and Johannes,
were bap. June 3, 1747, and that the witnesses were Andries

weeks old " Wits.: William Hopper and Hannah Webers.
It is to be assumed that the terms of the will were carried out.

This Roger settled in King and Queen County and had a son

its modern designation. Its members are to be distinguished
from the " Dutch" family of New England, from the descendants,
mostly most worthy, of that old matrimonial scamp Laurens
Duyts of Holstein, known as the Big Dane or Great Shoe, whose
sale of a wife cost him an ear, and from the family of Du
Sauchoy, now " Dissoway," members of which, by one of those
errors which render indices of little value, are given as "Duyts"
(19 Feb., 1676; N. Y. D. Ch., 2-121).
The evident meaning of the name, which is a mere tab or
label or nick-name, giving no clue either to the patronymic or
family name, is "the Dutch Man" — man, as the old divine wisely
inspired says, at all times embracing woman, and " Dutch,"
from the date of its early use more probably implying a Hol-
lander than a German. Today every village has its " Dutchman,"
who most probably is a German; but as early as 1689, when the
Dutchers first appear as such, the proper term for a German was
"Hoogdeutser" or " High Dutchman." Thus, in the 17 14 Ulster
Co., N. Y., List of Freeholders (Clearwater's Hist, of Ulster Co.,
66), one Hermanus, a German, appears as " Hermanus de Hoog-
deutser," while two of the Dutcher family appear, one as "Cor-
nelis de Duytcher," and one as " Dirck de Duytser" {id., 67, 69).
2 Jan., 1729, in Connecticut, " Ellen Ducher, a Dutch girl" appears,
showing an independent use of the term (Early Conn. Marriages,
4th Book, 87).
Down to 1700, and even later, the Netherland people always
referred to themselves as Duytsen or Neder Duytsen, whence the
English and American appellation of Dutchmen. " De " in
French is of ox from; but in Dutch the definite article "the."
The U. S. Census of 1790 shows 34 Dutcher heads of families,
scattered in New York, Pennsylvania, Connecticut and Vermont,
but all are of identical origin.
The early de Duytschers, distinctly so called in church record,
are eight in number, and of one, Mageltje Roelofse, i. e., Mathilda,
daughter of Roelof, No. 5 hereinafter, the parents are easily
determinable. She was not the daughter of Roelof Corneliszen
van Houten, as is suggested in "Van Houtens of Bergen," 27
N. Y. Gen., 183, but was the daughter of Roelof Willemszen and
Willempje (i.e. Wilhelmina) Thyssen, and is called "de duytser"
once in Kingston entry 1414, 15 Aug., 1703.
Of the remaining seven, six — Cornelis, No. 7, Cornelia, No. 8,
Catharine, No. 9, Dirck, No. 10, Roelof, No. 12, and David, No. 13,
all first appear at Kingston, in the church records, as parents,
and the seventh, Barent, No. 11, who appears at Tarrytown, and
Cornelis, Dirck, Roelof and David are all stated in one entry or
the other to have been born in adjacent parts of Ulster Co., close
to or at Kingston. It was soon apparent that these seven were
brothers and sisters, for all born or appearing at or near Kingston,
at approximate dates, they acted frequently as godparents to
each others children. Thus Cornelis, 7, and Cornelia, 8, were
sponsors to Dirck's son Cornelis, 36. Catharine's husband Jan
Roeland, 9, was sponsor to Cornelia's son Samuel Wels, 26.
David, 13, was sponsor with Maritje Wels, 22, to Dirck's son
ioog.] The Duti fur Family. I 87
David, 35. and to Roelof's daughter Margaret, 56, and Dirck, 10,
to Rcelof's son Johannes, 52, etc. This sponsorship continues
among those of the next generation, and the same friends act as
godparents to many of the early Dutchers. The military affili-
ations of the men were close, and resulted finally in a quota of
over 40 men and two captains in the Revolution. When, there-
fore, it appeared that all the original Dutchers who had sons had
a son John — being the first son of Barent, of Dirck and of Roelof,
the second son of I 'avid, the first son of Catharine by her husband
Jan Roeland, and the second son of Cornelia, it was evident the
common father was a John, a conclusion rendered positive by the
fact that Cornelia appears once as Cornelia Jansen (K., 64), and
Roelof once as "rullof Johnson " while in the militia. So, also,
in similar fashion, the common mother's name is demonstrated
to be Margaret, being the name of the only child of Cornelis,
the second daughter of Dirck, of Roelof, of Barent and of Cor-
nelia; Catharine having no daughter, and the birth date of
David's daughter Margaret being uncertain. Nothing in Dutch
genealogy is more certain than such an inference, and it was,
therefore, with a sense of inevitable fulfillment of prophecy that
some three years ago, I discovered "Jan Willemsen ye Duitcher,"
3, who 1 Sept., 1686, in Ulster Co., N. Y., appeared and took the
oath of English allegiance at the same time that "Cornelis ye
Duitcher," 7, failed to appear {Hist, of Ulster Co., 69-70).
This Dutch game of "Japhet in Search of a Father" thus
settled down to an effort to trace the particular John, son of
William, and to ascertain his relationship, which if any had to be
that of brother, to the Roelof, son of William, whose daughter
M ■- - '-Itie appears once as "de Duytser." Our Jan Willemszen
was early proved to be neither Jan Willemszen Yselsteyn, nor
Scuth, or van Burculo, or van Cujanes, or van Leyden, or van
Leuven, or van Loosdrecht, or Bennet, or Vertein, or Cornel, or
Rome(n) van Werkendam, or van Amsterdam, or Sebra, or
Schutt, or any of the remaining Jans "Willemzen" catalogued in
Bergen's Early Settlers of Kings Co., N. V., or Jan Willemszen
Hoogtaeling, husband of Barbara Jans, and prominent at King-
ston, whom Burhans, in error, was inclined to identify with Jan
Willemszen van Loosdrecht, who settled at Bergen. But our
Jan may well be identical with the Jan Willemszen, who with his
wife Margaret or Grietje Cornelis, 22 Jan., 1662, Kingston entry
13, had baptized a son Willem, evidently their first son, and who
may be identical with Jan Willmsen Brant, who with his wife
Gritye Cornelissen, 24 April, i<>*4_, had baptized a son Tys, , <■
Mat hew, no where else appi ( K., 2 r 7). The wife's
name Margaret is strong confirmation of this identification, and
her full name Margaret Cornelisse, ;. e. daughter of Cornelis,
explains Cornelis, 7, and possibly Cornelia, 8, and it is almost
conclusive th it the young facob I'.irentsen Cool, who with his
recently married wife, Marretje Simons, appeared as sponsor to
this couple's first son Willem, 6, supra, 22 Jan., 1 66a (K, 13),
should also, 39 years later apj ■ 1; April, 1701, to
Catharine de Duytser's son Jan, 29 (K., 133a), and 29 Dec, 1701,

to Cornelia Jansen de Duytser's son Jan, 25 (K., 12S1), the name
fan in each case preserving the name of Jacob Cool's early
friend Jan Willemszen. As early as 9 Oct., 1650 (N. Y. D., 2-28),
"Jan Helmszen" appears as sponsor at the baptism of Jacob
Barentzen Cool's brother Arent; but he may be the Jan Helmsze
van " Barlt," Schleswig-Holstein, of " Rensellaer-Bouwier manu-
script" mention (p. 827, note). It impossible that Grietje Cornelis
was daughter of the Cornelis Leenderts whose sister Marretje
became wife of Barent Jacobsen Cool, and so mother of Jacob
Barentsen Cool. The name "Willemsen" or "Williamson" was
common among the Dutch, German and English, and the early
existence of several Williamsons known as " Englishmen," ex-
plains the need of the tab "ye duitcher" used as early as 1686 on
the " Dutch " Jan and his children. Even a Jan Brandt, " Engels-
man, i. e. Englishman, appears 30 Dec, 1646 (N. Y. D., 2-21),
with a son Jan. 10 Nov., 1641, there was a Willem Willemszen,

lemszen "from England," married Grees (/. e. Grace) Cerant
(N. Y. D., 1-66), and 14 Sept., 1673, at Kingston, Ulster Co., a
Dutch "Jan Willemse" was lieutenant of the local militia, while
at Shrewsbury an English "John Williamson" held the same
office.
That Jan Willemszen and Roelof Willemszen were, almost
certainly, brothers is indicated by the following facts: both
appear about the same dates, 1660-3, at Beverwyck, Fort Orange,
or the present Albany, each the son of a William. Jan, moving
to Ulster Co., has a son Roelof. Roelof's daughter Mageltje, 5,
moving, also to Ulster Co., has as sponsors to her child Mar-
retje, No. 19, 25 Aug., 1700 (K., 1189), Roelof de Duytser, 12, and
Catharina de Duytser, 9, Jan's son and daughter, and 15 Aug.,
1703 (K., 1414), Mageltje appears as "de Duytser." Robert
Sanders of Albany, is sponsor to Mageltie's daughter Jannetje, 17,
and Robert's son Barent is in his turn sponsor to Roelof de
Duytser's son Johannes, 55. Marytjen Wels, 22, daughter of
Cornelia de Duytser, 8, is sponsor to Hendrick, 123, son of
Mageltje's daughter Marretjen, 19, and Mageltje's daughter
Willemptie Oosteroom, 16, having married Hendrick Buys.
Hendrick, 6 Oct., 1714 (N. Y. D., 2-377), is sponsor with Dirkje
Lammerse (Smit), whose cousin soon after married Barent Duyt-
scher, 11, and Mynno (Wilhelmina) Buys, a niece of Hendrick,
married Johannes De Duytscher, 42, son of Barent, 11.
Mr. Whittemore, in his De Duytscher Genealogy, mainly de-
voted to the descendants of Roelof de Duytscher, 12, suggests a
Dutcher descent from the " De Dechiers" of France, and thereby
supplies the inevitable coat of arms. In this country he finds the
ancestor in Dirck Corneliszen Duyster, who in 1630 was employed
by Killaen Van Renssellaer, and was one of those who for him
took title to Rensselaerwyck. Dirck's son he assumes to be
Cornelis ye Duitcher, No. 7, who is taken to be the father of the
other Dutchers. As Cornelis was not born until 1667, and did
1 909.) The Dutch fr Family. I 8y
not marry until 1091, this theory was always untenable. The
recent publication of Van Kensselaer-Bouwier Manuscripts (p. 700
and references there given) shows that Dirck was drowned at sea
in 1636, unmarried, and that his half-brother Willem died in 1635
leaving no sun, Willem being an artist or painter of Amsterdam.
'• Duyster" means the twilight or gloaming
The record, therefore, begins:
1 W11 mki.m,' the name of the father of Roelof and Jan. Re-
membering that Roelof is stated to be "van Heerden," it is just
possible that Wilhelm may be the Willem Janszen "van Heer-
den," who 18 Dec, 1654, m. Leent^e Martens, the widow of the Net -tme. »ne

Kuyter was slain by the Indians, March, 1654, and his widow,
probably for protection in those troublous times, re-married
without delay, and was herself massacred 15 Sept., 1655; her
husband by some means escaping (Riker's Harlem, 92, 160, 162,
etc ). As Leentje Martens appears as early as 20 Oct., 1639 (N.
Y. D., 2-10), she was probably a matured woman at her re-
marriage, and the entry gives no information whether Willem
Janszen was a widower or single. Heerden was a very small
village, about 30 miles N. N. E. from Arnheim in Gelderland,
nd. But the matter is pure conjecture, and Willem's issue,
if any, must have been by an assumed prior marriage.

Honorable Jan Buys. The personalty, her property, was inven-
toried at 379 florins (see Kings Co. Conveyances, liber 1, new
paging 75-77.) The will mentions Willempje's four children,
two by Roelof Willemszen. Willempje made her mark. Issue:
4 Willem Roelofszen, mentioned in the will as living in
1686. No other trace. Bergen's Early Settlers, 389,
gives the name in error as "Roelof Willemszen."
*5 Mageltje Roelofsze, probably b. in Albany; m. 19 Aug.,

3. "Jan" Willemszen ye Duitcher " (Wilhelm'). 1 Sept. 1689,
Jan appears as "ye duitcher" in Ulster Co., N. Y., and took the
oath of English allegiance (Hist. Ulster Co., 69). "Jan Willems-
zen" with the subsequently notorious Aert Peterszen Tack, 5
Aug, 1660, purchased of Johanna de Laet, widow of Jan de
Hulter, and wife of Hieronymus Ebbinghs of Hamburg, 48
morgens, 2 rods of land at Esopus, for 600 guilders, payable in
three annual instalments in grain and beavers (Pearson's Rens-
selaerwyck', 276-7). Jan Willemszen made his mark. Tack, 14
Aug., 1661 (K., 7), appears in Kingston, and "Jan Willemszen"
the same year (1897, Holl. Soc, 131). Burhan's Genealogy, p. 2,
mentions an unconfirmed statement of the late Jonathan W.
Hasbrouck that in 1663 "Jan Willemszen and his wife" in court
at Kingston referred to Jacob Burhans as capable of testifying to
their good character, as he came from their town Einigen in
Brabant. 18 Sept., 1663, "Jan Willemszen " was fined for ven-
turing outside the Kingston stockade, without a guard, in violation
of the decree made after the Indian massacre of 7 June, 1663.
14 Sept., 1673, "Jan Willemszen" was lieutenant under Capt.
Matheis Mathysen at Kingston (N. Y. State Hist. Rept., 1-383),
and 1686-7 "Jan Willemszen" was corporal under the same
captain, with " rullof Johnson" as a private (id. 2-451), and in
1687 "John Williamson" with "Barend a holender" (? Barent de
Duytscher, 11), were "fottmen" in Capt. Tomes (Thomas) Ger-
sones' Co. (id. 2-449).
Assuming, as I believe to be correct, that Jan Willemszen ye
duitcher is identical with Jan Willemsen, husband of Grietje
Cornelisse, the children are:
6 Willem,1 b. 22 Jan., 1662 (K., 13); wit: Jacob Barentszen
(Cool) and Marretjen Simons (his wife); Saertje Jelles
(?'. e. Sarah Giles). No further trace.

pottery at or near Kingston. Volckertjie Jans was

probably in Albany, whence her parents moved in 1663 to

first wife Tryntje Lubbertse of Fort Orange, m. 4 Dec, 1652
(N, V D., 1 — 18). Tryntje's parents were Lubbert Gysbertszen,
the wheelwright, b. 1601, from Blericum, near Naarden, and
Divertje (Debora) Cornelis, who with their three sons, Gysbert,
aged 10, theus (Matthew), aged 6, and Jan, aged i}4 years,
arrived in Rensselaerwyck on de Eendracht in 1634 (see full note,
Van Rensselaerwyck- Bouwier Manuscripts, 311, 808). Lubber! <\

an accurate record of many descendants. A Gerrit Willems

D., 2-131), son of Harmen Reynierszen and Jannetie
Cortois or Coutois. Resided at Poughkeepsie. The
family name became Rynders. I am inclined to identify
Harmen and Jannetie with the Harmen Reynderse and
Jannetie Jaspers, his wife, who appear in the Records of
New Castle in Delaware, pp. 72, 75, 90, 196, 198. Har-
men, owing 128 guilders to Henry Ward, was sued and
claimed he was to have six weeks within which to pay.
The court gave him this time, but he d. before it
expired, May 7-8, 1678. It was so reported to the court,
and as Harmen's house was under contract of sale to
John Ogle (Oakley?), John was directed to discharge
the debt out of the purchase money. "Jannetie Jas-
pers," widow and sole heir of Harmen, accordingly so
transferred the house. " Jannetje Jasperse" appears
as sponsor to our Hermans' first child, No. 100. If the
identification be correct, Jannetje was a dau. of Jasper
Courtois or Coutois. She appears 13 Feb., 1667, as a
sponsor (N. Y. D., 2-86). Herman Reynders was a
volunteer from Ulster County for the 171 1 Expedition
against Canada. Issue:

CORRECTION
To the editor of the New York Genealogical and Biographical Record:
Sir:
In the issue of your magazine for October, 1908, under the caption of
f Manors of New York, allusion is made to "fiillopp, Lord of Bcutley
Manor."
1. You state that " Capt. Billopp received from the King in 1687 the lord-
ship of Bentle) Manor of over 2,000 acres," etc.
The truth is that the Duke of York made this grant in 1668 but witheld title
until 1687, and the amount of land was 1,163 acres.
ir correspondent further states that " his (Capt. Billopp's) only dau.
m. Mr. Young Farmer."
Thehn- •■ nia Billopp was Thomas Farmar, her cousin,
3. Further, you state that "the manor was the meeting place of Lord
Howe, l>r. Franklin, John Adams and Edward Rutledge in 1778.
The interview was held on Sept. 6, 1776. immediately after the battle of
Long Island.
4. Still further, " Farmir-Billopp entered the British Army and became
Colonel."
H« a is an Associate Judge of Richmond County and was com-
missioned a Ma]or of the local ";
5. Your correspondent adds, "hii (Farmai Billopp's) estates were con-
i:.- Revolutionary Party in Ami ttled in

About 1750, Christopher Billopp was appointed Chief of Police of Rich-
mond County. He was repeatedly a member of the Colonial Legislature.
Immediately upon the arrival of Sir William Howe's army on Staten Island
(July 3, 1770), Christopher Billopp was commissioned a Lieutenant-Colonel of
militia, and he organized a battalion of infantry, composed of Loyalists, or
native Staten Islanders. He was practically the Provost Marshal of Staten
Island throughout the Revolution.
The Colonists of New Jersey were very bitter in their hostility to Billopp,
and on two different occasions made him a prisoner of war.
After the war, Colonel Billopp, with fifty-four families of Loyalists, in 1783,
petitioned Sir Guy Carleton for extensive grants of land in Nova Scotia.
Colonel Billopp soon after went to New Brunswick, in that Province, where
for many years he bore a prominent part in the administration of public affairs.
He was a member of the House of Assembly and the Council, and on the
death of Governor Smythe in 1833, he claimed the Presidency of the Govern-
ment, and issued his proclamation accordingly, but the Hon. Ward Chapman
was a competitor for the same station, and was sworn into office.

The Brewster Genealogy, 1566-1907. A Record of the Descen-
dants of William Brewster of the " Mayflower," Ruling Elder of
the Pilgrim Church which founded Plymouth Colony in 1620. By
Emma C. Brewster Jones of Cincinnati, Ohio. Two volumes. Cloth, Octavo,
pp. 1415. Full Index. The Grafton Press, New York. 1908.
The foundation for this work was a manuscript collection made by Lot
Edward Brewster in 1847, upon which his granddaughter, the compiler, has
built up an exhaustive genealogy of this leading New England Puritan. Her
enthusiastic and persistent research, coupled with great natural aptitude in
genealogical compilation, has resulted in the only authoratative and accurate
record of William Brewster, leader of the earliest Massachusetts Colony, and
his descendants. Eleven generations, through four of the grandsons of Elder
Brewster, are traced out, approximating forty-one hundred families of the
name, as well as the descendants of his nine granddaughters. It would be vain
to estimate the labor, time and perseverance devoted to this task and perhaps

By Mellen Chamberlain. Cloth, Octavo, Volume I, pp. 668 Vol. II, p
1908.
2 I O Book Notices. [July.
No more valuable historical record of the early settlement of Boston has
been published than this work of the late Mr. Chamberlain, and the Massa-
chusetts Historical Society has laid historians under a heavy debt by its enter-
prise and liberality in printing such a collection.
Every important paper relating to " Chelsea" has been set out in full and
the long controversy as to the earliest settlement and most ancient dwelling in
the upper bay of Boston has been finally disposed of, viz.: Samuel Maverick's
Palisade House at Winnisimmet, 1624-5.
The work treats of the early planters at Winnisimmet, the Indian Deeds,
Allotments of Land, Gov. Bellingham's Estate and Will, the Winnisimmet
Ferry, Early Churches and Pastors, the French War, American Revolution,
etc., and the town and court records now published appear to be exhaustive of
the subject of ancient Chelsea.
Perhaps a more general historical review of the town and less documetary
record would have been easier reading, but the untimely death of the author
undoubtedly hampered the final form of the work and at the most the historian
need only expend a little more time in reading the transcripts. The publisher
of these volumes is to be congratulated upon so scholarly a production and the
difficulty of typing ancient documents full of quaint and curious words and
alliterations has been well surmounted by the press-men. The work is
standard American history and also contains genealogical data of the utmost
value to the descendants of the early Chelsea settlers.
Genealogy of the De Carpentier Family of Holland. By Edwin
Jacquett Sellers. Cloth, Octavo, pp. 59. Indexed. Limited Edition. Phila-
delphia, Pa. I909.
The great expense of searching and transcribing the Dutch, French and
English records deters many from attempting to trace their ancestry else-
where than in the new continent of America. This brief work is an unusually-
good example of what can be found in ancient archives, when given the
interest and means to secure skilled archivists, and the pedigree of Pierre de
Carpentier of Messen. Flanders, is admirably set forth. The classification of
the data obtained and the elimination of unnecessary detail in the work
evidences the trained mind of a born genealogist. The two illustrations of
eminent members of the family are beautifully reproduced from ancient
pictures and the style of the book is much to be commended.
Donaldson Family Record. By James H. Slipper, M. A. Cloth,
Large Quarto, pp. 52. New York. 1909.
This work is a record of the descendants of James Donaldson born in the
Parish of Rothes, Scotland, 27th December, 1769, who came to New York in
1791, and is compiled more to preserve in permanent form family data,
obituaries, war records and family tributes than exhaustive genealogical
"data." The value to future family historians is unquestioned and the com-
piler has produced a creditable publication both in matter and typography.
The East Haven Register, in Three Parts. By Stephen Dodd. Cloth,
Small 8vo, pp. 200. New Haven. 1824.
This early book is a veritable treasure trove, dealing with the history of
the town of East Haven, Connecticut, from its earliest settlement in 1644 to
1800, and containing the names, marriages and births of the families which first
settled or resided in the town to 1800, arranged by name, and an account of
the deaths from 1647-1823, unfortunately arranged chronologically.
The data given is unusually complete for the early date of compilation
and had more of such work been done by the local pastors, the labor of the
present day genealogists would have been much lightened.

rhis work records the history, mission, activities, Pastors and Officers,
Reports ot Societies and Centennial Addresses of one of the wealthiest and
most influential churches in the Empire City. The biographies and portraits
of the pastors and officers from the organization of the church to date are
carefully prepared ai)d contain many facts concerning the early religious
movement of this city. The full names of the church members for one hundred
years are given and number many of the most influential citizens, while the
tribute to the late Rev. Dr. John Hall, one of the strongest officers of the
Presbytery and long Pastor of this church, is worthy of the great work he
accomplished.
The Holmans in America. By David Emory Holman, M.D., Attle-
boro, Mass. Cloth, Quarto, pp. 295. Full Index. The Grafton Press, New
York. 1909.
This volume records the descendants of Solaman Holman who settled in
West Newbury, Mass., in 1692-3, from whom William Howard Taft, President
of the United States, is descended, but the connection with any earlier New or
ngland ancestor has not been established. The author devotes forty-
three pages to more or less detailed account of other Holman families in
England, the New England States, and Virginia, as well as inserting interest-
ions of portraits, inected with these unrelated
lines, as well as his own family.
The Holman coat of arms is al in the pages, althi
kinship is shown with any "armiger." fin- desri the original
ancestor who died as late as 7th May, 1753, aged 82, appears to be fully tl
out and the genealogical arrangement is excellent. Both in printing and
binding the book is worthy of its publishers.
The Honeyman Family of Scotland and America, 1548-1908. By
Doren Honeyman. Cloth, Octavo, pp. 345. Indexed. Plainfield.
N.J. 1909.
In an attempt — unfortunately unsuccessful — to trace the ancestry of his
greatgrandfather, John Honeyman, the mysterious "Spy of Washington,' the
t collected a great mass of genealogical data concerning those of the
name in Scotland and in this country, and determined to publish this valuable
material rather than to allow it to lie hidden and become lost. Tin
deals with Bishop Andrew Honeyman of the Orkneys; the Honeyman family
of Newport, R. I., and with tin- eclebrati d John 1 1 oiieyui.il 1 of Armagh, Ireland,
and his descendants, and is divided into four parts, vi/.: 1. Historical and
ipbical; II. Genealogical; III. Gatherings from Scotch Records, and IV.
Appendices of Unidi The
author shows genealogical aptitude, skill in rth difficult
concisely and a vast amount of patience and toil in collecting his facts. The
Scotch annals are exceptionally interesting and will be of great value to those
tracing ancestry to that land. Tin- hook is finely printed and illustrated and
welcome from all libraries and societies dealing with the
■. of early settlers in this country.

and in 1389 Roger Kynge at Dodebrook (eight miles from Ugborough)
deeded land there — the original deed being now in possession of Mr. Harvey J.
King of Troy, N. Y. In 1721 James King of Suffield deeded to his son Joseph
certain Connecticut lands and sealed the instrument with a distinct waxen
impression of his coat-armor from the "Silver Seal, King's Coat of Arms," as
set out in the inventory of said Joseph King in 1758. The seal appears on
various deeds and documents from time to time and is now preserved among
descendants. The arms used are those granted by Wm. Camden, Clarenceux
King of Arms in 161 1 to " King of London" and are described as "Sable, on a
chevron or, between three crosses — crosslet of the last, three escallops of the
first," and were used with slight differences by Oliver King (1430-1503), Bishop
of Exeter, Devon, as well as by Alexander King of London in 1592, and by the
Kings of Shelly, Co. Suffolk, as well as the King family of Sherborne, Dorset.
The dates would make these arms of more ancient use than the "Lion Ram-
pant" which distinguishes the King family of Devon and Towcester, North-
ampton, to which family John King, Bishop of London, and the Kings of
Warwick, York, Kent, Oxon and Bucks were allied.
The compiler has given a detailed description of the English ancestry,
including a view of a King Manor House at Fowelscombe, Devon, still in
existence.
The work is excellently arranged after the standard plans, illustrated with
various family portraits and objects of interest, and would appear to be
exhaustive of the Suffield, Connecticut line. The descendants of the immigrant
named King number 1,442 and the daughters made alliances with Fuller,
Emerson, Devotion, Remington, Adams, Aunnger, Preston, Farrer, Holliday,
Bayeux, Haight, Beveridge, Forney, Brown, Baker and Washington families,
all of which are set out in Appendices.
The typography, paper and binding leave nothing to be desired and Mr.
King deserves great praise for his care, ability, patience and toil in compiling
what is the first exhaustive genealogy of a New England family of this name.
The book should be in the collection of every society dealing with early
New England families and heraldic pretence.
A Brief Cenealogical History of Dr. Robert King of Blanford,
Berkshire County, Mass., and the Descendants of his son, Captain
Dr. Robert King of Sandisfield, Berkshire County, Mass., late of
Charlestown, Portage County, Ohio. By Silvester M. King, M.D.
Paper, Octavo, pp. 59. Press of Anderson & Robb, Albia, Ohio. 1883.
Dr. Robert King, the first ancestor of this special King family of Massa-
chusetts, appeared in Blanford about 1768, and is said to have been born near
Cork, Ireland. He married, about 1768, Bridget Knox and settled in Berkshire
Co., where he had ten children. The descendants of his son, Dr. Robert King,
alone are traced down to the number of 208, and are to be found prospering in
many of the western cities and states. The compiler has done good work in
preserving and perpetuating this family record and while the pamphlet is not
arranged or indexed according to present standards, the references to special
names are readily found and the annals of the Kings and allied family names
clearly set forth. The spirit which actuated the collection and publication of
of these annals is most creditable and Dr. King deserves praise for surmount-
ing the obstacles of indifference, ignorance and opposition, as well as the
difficulty of compiling a genealogy when living so far from the original settle-
ment of the family. It is such works as these — accomplished out of family
pride and interest — which will prove invaluable to the genealogists of future
centuries.

The loss of this church, with all its records by fire in 1873, inspired the

April 23KD, 1004. of the 150111 Anniversary of its Incorporation,

The spirit which prompted the preservation in print of the Acts of tin-
nil, the Anthems, Addresses, Annivi , Speeches at the
Banouet and Letters of those unable to attend this anniversary celebration of
an old tts town is heartily approved, for it is from such records
that future historians will be able to construct the general history ol tin- State.

Morris, 1654-1721. By Robert C. Moon, M. D. Supplement Vol. IV and V.
Cloth, Large Octavo, pp. 483. Full Index. Philadelphia. 1908.
These sumptuous volumes consist of additional records of this well known
Philadelphia family, collected since the three original volumes of family
history were published in 1898. They deal with research at Stepney, England,
in Barbadoes, W. I., and at Weymouth and Melcombe Regis, Dorset, England,
and give additional data concerning Andrew Dury, the Morris Mansion, the
First City Troop of Philadelphia, the Lewis family, the Wister Family, the
Kuhn family, the Shober family, the Shippen family, the Nixon family, the
Pennsylvania Hospital and many mansions, homes, institutions, etc., identified
with the representative descendants of this ancient line. These books are re-
markable for 302 fine illustrations, in half tone of portraits, residences, maps,
documents, old silver, furniture and other objects of art and interest dealing
with the Morrises and their many allied kinsfolk. The type is unusually clear,
large and admirably set on fine paper and the books are exceptionally well
bound, opening readily and remaining flat for the reader's convenience.
Taken in conjunction with the first three volumes of genealogy these supple-
mental volumes make one of the most complete histories of a leading American
family ever published and Dr. Moon in this monumental work establishes
himself in the first ranks of family historians and antiquarians. Fortunate
jndeed any library, public or private, that can add these books to its collection.
'History of the City of New York in the Seventeenth Century.
By Mrs. Schuyler Van Rensselaer. Two Volumes. Cloth, Octavo, pp. 1 173.
New York, The Macmillan Company. 1909. Price, $5.00.
In view of the approaching Hendrick Hudson Celebration the appearance
of these historical volumes is singularly appropriate, confined as they are to
the early Dutch and English settlements of Manhattan Island. Excellent
general histories of the City and Province of New Amsterdam and New York
are a-plenty, and as such must perforce omit, or give only a few lines to many
of the minor historical and political events. The present historian, however,
had the happy intuition of writing a detailed history of the city alone, after
close and exhaustive examination of the great mass of documents dealing with
the Annals of New Amsterdam and New York. In the past few years interest
in preserving ancient records has been vastly stimulated by discoveries of
many new and priceless manuscripts in the libraries of Europe and England
and the publication of many records hitherto inaccessible to the general
reader. The mass of these publications had not been exhaustively digested or
incorporated into any history of this city and this work it was left for Mrs.
Van Rensselaer to accomplish and bring before the public in her scholarly
volumes. She shows a remarkable grasp of detail, a masterly analysis of
political motive and action, and an impartiality of narrative somewhat rare to
find among those women who have attempted historical writings. Easy
writings as a rule makes hard reading, but the style of these volumes refutes
the ancient saw and the text is neither redundant nor filled with imagery.
Each chapter is followed by its pages of reference notes, as though the author
was jealous lest her authorities should not be openly declared and referred to.
The style and finish of the publication maintains the high standard of its
publishers and these books are indispensible for any adequately equipped
public library. Both author and publishers deserve the intellectual and
financial support, which their joint labors merit.

John Redington of Topsfield, Massachusetts, and some of His
Descendants, with Notes on the Wales Family. By Cornelia M.
Redington Carter. Edited by Josiah Granville Leach, LL.B. Cloth, Octavo,
pp. 86. Full Index. Boston. 1000.
The genealogy is a reprint — with additions — from the Neiu England
Historical and Genealogical Register and exceedingly well done both as to
material, arrangement, illustrations and typography. Nothing is set forth
upon tradition and no claim to distinguished descent is advanced but the
story is one of an honest family, well told. There appears to be a reasonable
certainty that John and Abraham Redington were originally of Hemel Hemp-
stead, Co. Herts, England, as Mary Gould, the wife of John Redington, was
born in that town. The Redington name is an unusual one in the English
Counties and is stated to be confined to Counties Herts, Essex and Berks.
The genealogical plan of this book should serve as a model to all contemplat-
ing a record of their family, and the work will be a welcomed addition to the
collections of critical bibliophilers.

realized, but the grand total of 9,948 names tabulated emphasizes the energy,
patience and devotion of the compiler to his task of recording the annals of

family are descended from three Holland ancestors, in no way yet known to be
related, viz.: — Pieter Van Doorn of Gravezand, Holland, who settled in
Gowanus, Long Island, New York; Diedlof Doorn, who appears in New York
in 16S0, and Anthony Van Doorn, of Rio Berbice, British Guiana, who came to
Rhode Island in 1756. The Rhode Island family alone has adhered to the
correct spelling of the name and it is reasonable to assume that this branch was
descended from those " noble " families of the name in Holland, whose probable
cradle was the town of Doorn, near Utrecht. The writer appears to have
exhausted every American source of information, the expense of investigating
the Dutch Archives and church records deterring him from efforts in that
direction. The arrangement of this genealogy is alphabetical and the fact that
but two other genealogical works, as the author states in his preface, are so
arranged, indicates that such a grouping of descendants is eccentric and not
commended by skilled genealogists. The index therefore is not exhaustive
and a searcher whose time is limited is much hampered. The book is well
printed, bound and illustrated and is a valuable addition to American
genealogies.
The Woodruffs of New Jersey. By Francis E. Woodruff, B. A. (Yale
1864). Cloth, Octavo, pp. 131 with Index. The Grafton Press, New York. I909.
This work is rather a foundation for a genealogy than an exhaustive record
of the Woodruff family history, but it is none the less valuable in that it
preserves important material in concise form for the future genealogists,
revised and enlarged from "A Branch of the Woodruff Stock," which was
published in parts in 1902. Clear proof is produced that the ancestors of John
Woodruff, the immigrant, were of the town of Fordwich, Kent, England, and
the line commences with a Thomas Woodrove who lived in 1508. The two
sons of John Wooduff respectively founded the Elizabeth and the Westfield,
N. J., branches of the family and the author has given excellent sketches of
early Southampton, Long Island, its whaling interests, land divisions and
political history in the 17th century.
Good reproductions of early land maps, persons and places of family note
are given and in typography and binding the book reflects credit upon the
publishers.

PEDIGREE CHARTS.
The New York Genealogical and Biographical Society
226 West 58th Street, New York.
This Society has for sale official forms of genealogical charts called
" Register of Pedigrees." These registers are of two varieties, called "single"
and "double" charts. They are each paper covered books of 11 x 16 inches in
size, properly ruled and printed for the insertion of names of ancestors in succes-
sive generations. The single charts consist of 17 pages, and when filled in will
give all of the ancestors in all ramifications for g generations, arranged so that the
family name of each of the 16 great-great-grandparents occupies a page. Family
names appear on the marginal index which is formed by the indentation of each
leaf. The back of each leaf is arranged for special memoranda concerning the
persons named on the page facing it.
The double charts are practically two single charts combined. The object
being to devote the first half of the chart to the registration of the complete pedi-
gree of the male line, the second half for a like registration of the female line, and
the double chart therefore provides for the registration of 10 generations in both
male and female lines.
The price of these charts to members of this Society is as follows:
Printed on Bond paper, paper cover :
Single Charts, 75 cts. Double Charts, $1.50
To those who are not members of the Society:
Single Charts, $1.00 Double Charts, $2.00
Printed in Extra Heavy Linen Ledger paper, bound in stiff cloth covers:
To Members of the Society:
Single Charts, $1.25 Double Charts, $2.00
To those who are not members of the Society:
Single Charts, $1.50 Double Charts, $2.50
Members of the Society, or others who purchase these Charts and fill them in as fully as pos-
sible and present them to the Librarian of the Society for filing in the Society's Library, will re-
ceive a new one in exchange therefor without additional cost. These charts may be purchased by
application to the Librarian.
It is the desire of the Trustees that the members will supply themselves with these registers,
fill them out as far as possible and file them with the Society. When received these will be bound
in volumes, fully indexed, and will thus form a record of inestimable value to the Society.
Those who have in their possession full information as to their individual ancestry are espec-
ally urged to obtain these Charts, fill them in and file them with the Society, as information of this
nature is very frequently lost to posterity owing to negligence on the part of those possessing it to
make record thereof, in special depositories provided for that purpose.

JACKSON'S HISTORY OF NEWTON WITH QENEALOOY OF ALL
RESIDENTS TO 1800.
This history was written by Francis Jackson, brother of William Jackson, both formerly res-
idents of Newton. The original publication was in 1854. The book contains 556 pages, bound in
old fashioned embossed cloth covers 5 x 8 in size. Its frontispiece is an engraving of Col. Joseph
Ward. It contains a map of Newton as it was in 1700 showing the original grants by the colony
which make up the town territory. It not only covers the history of Newton but also contains
copious references to the affairs of surrounding towns, and runs from 1639 to 1800. It contains an
elaborate genealogy of all known residents of Newton to 1800. It traces out the derivation of the
word Newton, runs over names and details concerning earlv settlers whom it traces from Boston to
Cambridge and through Cambridge to Watertown and thence to "NewTowne" now Newton. The
facts relating to the separation of Newton from Cambridge are reviewed. There are articles con-
cerning the Indians, slavery in Newton, the history of its early mills and factories and a full ac-
count of its ecclesiastical history. The battles of Lexington and Concord and the evacuation ol
Boston are dealt with in a way to show the part that Newton suldieis took in those affairs. In ad-
dition to the genealogical table, there is an appendix dealing with prominent individual citizens,
for instance, the career of Col. Joseph Ward is set out at length witb copies of correspondence be-
tween him and George Washington.
This book is not a revised edition. Not a word has been added, omitted nor changed. It is
a reproduction made by taking apart an original, photographing each page separately and from
those photographs making plates for use in the printing press, so that each page of the book now
offeree! is a photographic reproduction of the original. The old map, although not hand-colored as
it was in the original, is still an exact reproduction in colors.

THE EARL OF DUNMORE.
. . GSORGI \i us Morrison, Jr., A.M., LL.H.
No more ancient family exists in the Scottish Highlands than
that of the house of Atholl, and the early forbears of this power-
ful clan by judicious intermarriages with the greater nobility of
Scotland were thus able to secure protection and influence from
the highest feudal authorities. The alliance of John, First Mar
quess of Atholl, with Ameliana Sophia, daughter of James.
seventh Earl of Derby, founded the fortune of the branch house
of Murray, their second son, born in 16S5, being named Lord
Charles Murray. < >n 16 August, 1686, the heir of the Murrays
was created an Earl, Viscount and Baron of Scotland, and from
this period the branch family rapidly came into prominence.
John Murray, the subject of this sketch, fourth Earl of Dunmore,
was the eldest son of William Murray, the third Earl, and
Catherine Nairn, third daughter of his uncle Lord William
Murray, who later became Lord Nairn by marrying the heiress
of that family On his mother's side scent from
the royal house of Stuart. He was born at Taymouth, Perth-
shire, Scotland, in 1732, and died at Ramsgate, England, in May,
1S09. Little is known of his boyhood days, except that he was
educated at Eton, 1742-174.), and during the rising oi 1745 was
a Page of Honor to Prince Charles Edward Stuart, the Pretender,
at Holyrood Palace. His father, the third Earl, cast his fortune
with those of the Jacobite Parly, and as chief of one of the great
Scottish houses, took an active part in the rebellion, taking
youn eir with him into the field. His father, however,
was taken prisoner at the Battle of Culloden, tried for high
m and imp t life, dying in prison in 175'). 'i

himself with the reigning Hanoverian royal family and as a
reward received the appointment of Governor of the Province of
New York in 1770. Lord Dunmore arrived in New York during
October and at once busied himself with the duties of his office,
showing great activity, but little intelligence in the administration
of colonial affairs. In July, 1771, he was appointed Governor of
the Colony of Virginia, but by delaying his departure from New
York for several months, aroused the suspicion and antagonism
of the leading Virginian families. Upon his arrival at Williams-
burg, Virginia, in the spring of 1772, he at once incurred the
hostility of the colonists by dissolving the Virginian Assembly
and when it was reconvoked in March, 1773, Lord Dunmore
again dissolved the body in May, 1773, because it had adopted on
the 12th March, a resolution to appoint a committee of corre-
spondence to unite with the other colonies for action against the
aggressive policy of the mother country. In May, 1774, Lord
Dunmore once more exercised his prerogative and dissolved the
Assembly because it had resolved to keep the first day of June,
the date of the closing of the Port of Boston, as a " day of fasting,
humiliation and prayer." The Governor, either intentionally or
through ignorance of the critical nature of the times and the
patriotic temper of his province, continued to estrange the
colonists and during the Autumn of 1774 aroused their anger by
making an injudicious peace with the Ohio Indians. Fearing a
popular uprising Lord Dunmore removed the powder from the
Williamsburg magazine to on board the Magdalen, man-of-war
then anchored in the James River, on the night of the 20th April,
1775-
The people forthwith rose in arms under the leadership of
Patrick Henry, and the Governor was compelled to make over-
tures for peace by paying for the value of the powder he had so
arbitrarily removed. A convention of the colonists was then
appointed to meet in May, 1775, but Lord Dunmore forbade the
gathering by proclamation. The Assembly was convened on the
1st June, 1775, to consider the conciliatory propositions made by
Lord North, the then English Prime Minister, but while these
were under discussion, a sudden riot took place on the 5th June.
Thoroughly alarmed at this second uprising, Lord Dunmore
called together the council, but without effecting any relaxation
of the tense situation between the royalist and colonial sympa-
thizers. He, accordingly, sent Lady Dunmore on board the
Fowey, man-of-war, for safety, and issued a proclamation against
"a certain Patrick Henry" and "his deluded followers." He
himself soon joined his wife on the Fowey, which was then lying
off Yorktown, about twelve miles away. In the meantime, the
Virginia Assembly continued to sit, and to forward to him the
bills passed — which he in turn refused to sign without the at-
tendance upon him aboard ship, of the burgesses. Thereupon
the burgesses decided that their privileges had been attacked
and held that by such action the Governor had abdictated.
They then constituted themselves into a convention and
vested all executive power in a Committee of Safety. When the

news of the Battle of Lexington reached him, Lord Dunmore
immediately sent his wife to New York and himself sought
e in Port Johnson. Upon the arrival of the British forces
in New York, a number of the Royalists joined Lord Dunmore
and they proceeded I >n a petty war against the in-
habitants on the James and York Rivers, burning their plan-
tations, destroying thi tnd carrying off their goods and
He attacked Hampton on October 25th, but was repulsed
with considerable loss, and having determined upon di
action, on November 7th proclaimed freedom for all negroes who
might rally to his standard.
< >n December 9th, 1775, his small army was decisively defeated
•at Bridge, a small village about twenty miles from Norfolk
and on January 1st, 1776, Lord Dunmore retaliated by burning
Norfolk, the most flourishing city in Virginia. Soon after this
exploit he was forced to flee on board his fleet, and after being
driven from one position to another finally anchored at the
mouth of the Potomac River. During June, 1777, he made his
headquarters on Gwynn Island, in the Chesapeake River, where
he attempted a few sallies without success, and was routed from
this shelter on July 8th by the Yirginians, under the leadership
.drew Lewis, after being wounded in the leg. Gen. Wash
□ wrote concerning him in December, 1775: " I do not think
that forcing his Lordship on shipboard is sufficient. Nothing
less than depriving him of life and liberty will secure peace to
Virginia, as motives of resentment actuate his conduct to a
degree equal to the total destruction of that colony "
During the greater part of the year 1776, Lord Dunmore re-
mained along the coast of Yirginia, suffering great hardship and
many minor defeats, until he finally burned his smaller vessels
and sailed with the remainder of his fleet to the West Indies.
Later he returned to England, as he had been elected in
{anuary, 1776, to a vacant seat in the House of Lords, to which
e was again returned at the general election of October, 1780,
and May, 1784.
His name appears in the Confiscation Act of New York in
1 7 7 ■ j , but thereafter he disappears from the history of the
colonies.
He was appointed and acted as Govenor and Commander-in-
Chief ihama Island from 1787-1796, and upon the ex-
piration of his term returned to England, where he di

to the fact that he was one of the few Scottish Highland nobles
that allied themselves with the house of Hanover, and the King
was anxious to reward these adherents for their deflection from
the party of the Pretender.
Lord Dunmore married on February 21st, 1759, Lady Char-
lotte Stewart, daughter of Alexander, sixth Earl of Gallaway,
and Catherine, youngest daughter of John, fourth Earl of Dun-
donald, by whom he had eight children, viz.:

Prince Augustus Frederick, Duke of Sussex, sixth son
of King George III. This marriage, being one of a
royal prince with a subject and thus contrary to
statute, caused great scandal and was repudiated by
the King and the royal family. Question arising as
to its validity, it having taken place in a foreign
country, the Prince remarried Lord Dunmore's
daughter on 5 Dec, 1793, at St. George's Church,
Hanover Square, London. The marriage, however,
resulted in no issue.

On 10 Sept., 1831, the Earls of Dunmore were created Barons

courteously forwarded a photograph of the picture. There is
another portrait now preserved in the State House at Norfolk,
Virginia, but it is only a head and not particularly well executed.

A John Cannon came in the Fortune in 162 1, but his name is
not found in the division of cattle in 1627. There was a Cannon
of Sandwich in 1650, perhaps identical with Robert of New
London, 1678.* In the church records of Scituate and Barnstable,
t9 April, 1 69 1, occur the baptisms of John, Philip, Timothy,
Nathan and Elizabeth, children of Joanna Cannon, probably a
widow, who had but recently removed there. f
Memorandum that Edward Marshall of the parish of St.
Peter's neere Paulswharfe, London, who died on or about the
fifth day of December, 1639 . . . did utter and speake these
words following, that is to say " Cosen (hee then speaking unto
Anne Cossens, widdow), I pray see mee buried well, and take all
my goods that I have and keepe them for the benefit of my sonne
Thomas Marshall," who was then and is now beyond seas, " and

Four persons of the name Thomas Marshall appear in New
England prior to the date of this will: Thomas, planter, Dor-
chester, freeman 4 March, 1634-5 (name sometimes spelled Marsh-
field) ; Thomas, Boston, admitted to the church there 3 June, 1634;
Thomas, shoemaker, Boston, came in the James in 1635, aged 22;
and Thomas, tailor, Lynn, proprietor, 1638; but there is a good
deal of confusion in the accounts of these persons as given by
Savage and Pope.

The testator was evidently a cadet of the family of Leigh of
Eggington in Derbyshire, whose pedigree is recorded in the
Visitations of 1569 and t6u,* but unfortunately omitted from
that of 1663-4,1 which would probably have enabled us to place
the testator with certainty.

In this most valuable will we are enabled to locate three of
the name in New England, all evidently brothers, of whom the
deceased husband of the testatrix, who seems to have been Alex-
ander, was of Ipswich, Mass., in 1635, and had been an innkeeper
at Chelmsford, Essex, in Old England, before his emigration.*
That he was also a mariner is clearly indicated by the mention of
his sea clothes and instruments — a fact that also accounts for the
absence of his name from the shipping list in which those of his
wife Sarah, aged 50, the testatrix, and daughter (or sister)
Dorothy, aged 30, appear.f
Philip, the next brother, who had under the will the sea
clothes and instruments above mentioned, was of Charlestown,
Mass., in 1637. He was there a cooper, and by wife Margery had
five children who, at his death in 1665, were of ages varying
from eleven to twenty-six years.
Robert, who was in Holland at the time of the making of the
will, was perhaps that Robert, formerly of Bristol, England,
merchant, who was appointed attorney for Abraham Shurt of
Pemaquid in 1647, and who married, about 1651, Anne, widow of
* Vincent's Hist, of the Pequoit War.

LISTS OF GERMANS FROM THE PALATINATE WHO

(Continued from Vol. XL, p. 167, ol the RECORD.)
The following lists are copied from the original documents
preserved in the British Museum Library, London, England, and
should be of the greatest genealogical interest to those families in
the States of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and else-
where, which claim descent from the so-called Palatine settlers.
These lists have never before been printed to the knowledge of
the Editor, and it should be noted that the word " son " or " sons "
and "dau." or "daus." followed by figures denote that the heads
of the family had as many sons or daughters, as there are figures,
and that these sons and daughters were of the respective ages
denoted by the figures. The word "wife" indicates that the
head of the family was married and that the wife was living.
The abbreviations "Ref.," "Luth.," "Bap." and "Cath.," mean
that the family belonged to the Reformed, Lutheran, Baptist or
Catholic Churches.

" Blandina Raljee," as Jan's widow, was a Poughkeepsie
church member in 1769. In 1760 she subscribed 16/s.
to the erection of the church building. Jan was one
of the elders.
In consequence of lost Poughkeepsie records, I can
as yet place the following, all m. at Poughkeepsie:

7. Cornelis* ye Duitcher (Jan, No. 3, Willem, No. 1), is first
recorded, t Sept., 1689, as an absentee at the time of taking the
oath of English allegiance (Ulster Co. Hist., 70); m. before 1693,
Leonora de Hooges (dau. of Anthony de Hoogcs and Eva, dau. of
Albert Andrieszen Pratt), b. before 1655, when her father died,
and widow of Willem Monjeur de la Montagne (b. 22 April, 1641),
by whom she had seven children. Her father, of "Anthony's
Nose " fame, who arrived in 1 64 1, was Superintendent of the Colony
of Rensselaerwyck, secretary, bookkeeper and "Vorleser." His
history now appears fully in Van Rensselaer-Bouwier Manu-
scripts, p. 825. Leonora's mother m. (2) Roelof Swarthout,
Magistrate, etc., at Kingston, X. V. See Swarthout Chronicles
and De Forests of Avesnes. Cornelis is, in error, given by Mr.
Whittemore in his De Duytscher Genealogy as the de Duytsctaer
ancestor. The age of his wife was a great stumbling block to the
Jafi Willemszcn theory until Mr. Van Laer at Albany, at my
request, courteously examined the affidavits there of record,
whereby it appeared that Cornelis, 17 I '< t , 172.', gave his a
about 55 years, 01 - it 1667. His wife, who m. (1) in
(K. M., 30), was therefore at least 12, and p s, his
senior, which explains his having only one child by her.

THE HOPPE-HOPPEN-HOPPER LINEAGE.
By Hopper Striker Mott.
(Continued from Vol. XL., p. 177, of the Record.)
Considerable data has come to hand from persons interested
in this research, some of which we are privileged to use in this
final article of the series. Additional notes (p. 272 of the October,
1908, Record) on the
Colonial Hoppers.
The name appears in Maryland as early as 1668 and is likely
of English origin. The following individuals would seem to be
ancestors of the "Eastern shore" family, whose descendants are
to be found in the vicinity of Baltimore, Centreville, etc.:
John Hopper, will proved Dec. 20, 1668; had wife Dorothy.
Isabel Hopper was a beneficiary in the will of Abraham Hol-
man of Baltimore County in 1686.
Robert Hopper was a witness to several wills proved in Anne
Arundel County in 1686, 1694, 1696, 1697 and 1698. The will of
apparently the same man was proved in 1700, viz.:
Robert Hopper, of All Hallows Parish, Anne Arundel County,
proved Aug. 17, 1700, wife Mary, sons Thomas and James, son-in-
law Ralph Bassiel and brother-in-law David Bell.

In the first census of the United States, 1790, Robert Hopper
appears as the head of a family of four persons in Prince George's
County, Maryland, and Sarah Hopper as the head of a family of
five.
Holland Hoppers.
John and Jane Hopper of New Jersey had children during
Revolutionary epoch. Query: Who were their parents? At the
Holland Society we ascertain that the Pond Church Records
were consumed by fire'and that the only Ramapo vital records
in that library are those of the Evangelical German Lutheran
Church from 1750-1817. A careful examination of these has
proved fruitless. Issue:

It has not been ascertained whether the Durham immi
came directly from England to Long Island or whether the)
were among those Englishmen who 1 '■ temporarily in
Holland before coming to America. The three whose :;
have been found enrolled in Flushing and reputed to be brothers
were:

260 The Hoppe-Hoppen-Hopper Lineage. [Oct.,
Robert, the shipmaster, who made voyages on the Delaware
River as early as 1683. He was a member of the Society of
Friends and probably had no descendants in America. A deed
made by the administrator of his only daughter recites that he
owned land in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Maryland; and
Christopher, who resided in Flushing in 1698, was enrolled in
the Colonial Militia in 17 15. His will, proved Dec. 9, 1760, is of
record in the New York City Surrogate's office, and his children
were:
i. Mary, m. Henry Lowerre of Flushing. Her de-
scendants will probably be found in Lowery lines.
ii. Elizabeth, m. Griffen, probably of the same place.
The descendants are said to be quite numerous in
the present generation,
iii. Edward,
iv. John, m. and left issue.
The estate of one Edward Hopper of Ulster County, N. Y.,
was administered in 1768 by Abimal Youngs. Query: Was this
a descendant of Christopher?
From another source we derive this information: The Flush-
ing pioneers descend from a family in Wiltshire first known as
Hooper, but which was indifferently written Hoppe and Hopper
and finally Hopper. John Hooper, the first of the name to
appear, was of the City of Sarum, in Wiltshire. He m. Agnes,
dau. of John Porte. Their third son, Giles Hooper, had a son,
Lawrence Hopper, who was buried May 6, 1603, in Stowell,
Somersetshire. His son, John Hopper, b. circa 1540, in Sarum,
Wiltshire, was a member of St. Thomas Church, and a burgess of
the Borough. He d. Jan. 16, 1583. His son, Thomas Hopper,
became an inhabitant and was admitted a freeman of the
Borough, March 5, 1580. He m. Edith, dau. of Richard and
Sisterly (Basse) Plummer. Their son, Hugh Hopper, was bap.
in Aldenham, Hertfordshire, Feb. 8, 1595; m. Marye Jordan, May,
1623. Their son, Thomas Hopper, bap. same place, Oct. 14, 1630,
by Rowland Greenwood, minister, removed in 1654 to Darling-
ton, Durham; m. May 6, 1654, Elizabeth, dau. of Humphrey
Fletcher. Issue:
i. Thomas, b. March 12, 1655; m. Aug. 4, 1687, Elizabeth,
dau. of John Fletcher and sister of John Fletcher, Jr.
ii. John, b. Feb. 9, 1656 (see below).
iii. Humphrey, b. Aug. 17, 1658; m. May 5, 1697, in Gains-
ford (County Durham) Church, Jane Hidshon, and
had issue:
i. James, who moved to London where he m. in
St. Paul's, Canterbury, Sarah .
ii. Edward, b. 1705; d. March 9, 1765, aged 60;
buried in St. Oswald's Cemetery, Durham.

1. John Hopper, b. Feb. 9, 1656, in Durham; with wife Rachel
emigrated in 1074 to Flushing, L. I., where he was a planter in
1675, removing shortly thereafter to Deptford Township, Glou-
cester Co., N. J. He purchased land on Woodbury Creek. His
descendants have been traced to various parts of the United
States. Some are in New York City, some on Long Island, some
in Philadelphia, and many in Western States. It will be noted
that in this line of descent John's ancestors are definitely located.
It may be that he had brothers Robert and Christopher as sug-
gested above. No conclusive evidence, however, has been found.

Some Unlocated Hoppers.
A number of the name appear in the military rolls of the
Revolution in several interior counties of Pennsylvania. It is
probable that they came of independent lines of English ancestry
which have not been traced. Several names appear in New
Jersey records which probably belonged to the Gloucester
County family, but no connecting links have been found to
connect them with the main stem. These are some of those
referred to:
I909-] The IIoppe-Hoppen-Hopper Lineage. 263
Benjamin Hopper of Alloways Creek, Salem County, N. J.,
will proved 1725; left sons Joseph and John.
Henry Hopper witnessed the will of Simon Clifton of Chester
Township, Burlington County, N. J , in 1728.
I'1 '773. Thomas Saunders and Ann Hopper were married in
Woodbury, N. J., Friends' Meeting.
George Hopper owned a lot in Camden, N. J., sometime after
'773-
The autograph of a John Hopper appears among the signatures
appended to the Constitution of the New Jersey Society of the
Sons of St. Tamminy, No. 1, dated May 1, 1782. The document
is a manuscript and appears to be an original. (Collections of
the Historical Society of Penn.)
In 1797 Joseph Hopper and Amy Woolohorn were married in
Gloucester County, N. J.
In 1 80 1 Amy Hopper and Isaac Ivens of Waterford Township,
Gloucester County, N. J., were married.
In American Family Antiquities, by Albert Wells, is the
statement that Noah Waterbury, m. Sarah McKinnie, widow, the
dau. of Mr. Hopper of New York. The marriage occurred at
St. Ann's Church, Brooklyn, about 1803. She d. April 9, 1828.
In the N. Y. Genealogical and Biographical Record, Vols. 2 and
3, are some notes contributed by Dr. O'Callaghan containing lists
of marriage licenses found by him in the New York Surrogate's
Office. These have also been published, in the supplementary
list of such licenses, as a State Library bulletin in 1898. I
cerning the Hoppers therein mentioned we have gleaned these
data from the volumes of Marriage Bonds in the State Library:
5 July, 1698. John Hopper-Margaret Tindell. The Stat<
Archivist makes no report other than the fact that the marriagi
license was issued.
22 Oct., 1736. Edward Hopper- P^liz: Salya. Not a full bond
but on lv a memorandum giving these names and the date. In
Vol. M. B. 1,3.
26 Sept,, 1759. Elenor Hopper-Samuel Hopson. Bondsmen
Samuel Hopson of Kings County, Butcher and |ames Thompson
of New York, mariner. Groom: Samuel Hopson as above
Bride: Lienor Hopper of New York, widow. In Vol. M. B. 2, 433
7 March, 1760. Mary Hopper-Thomas Canpi(?). In the bod]
of the bond the name of the groom is written by tl
Kemp; the signature in a rather illiterate hand is thomai Can pi
Bondsman: Thomas Kemp or Canpi of Westchester County,
shoemaker, and Isaac Gamier ot the City of New York,
maker. Groom: Thomas Kemp or Canpi as above Bride: Marj
Hopper of Westchester County, spinster. In Vol. M, B. .], 67.
We are indebted for part of the above data to Harry Shelmin
Hopper of Philadelphia, Pa., John Jacob Hopper of New Yorl
City, and George T. Pish of Rochester, N. V . to Whom thanks
are extended

EARLIEST BAPTISMAL RECORDS OF THE CHURCH
OF HARLINGEN (REFORMED DUTCH) OF
NEW [ERSEY. 1727-1734.
By William Jones Skillman, Ontario, California.
Earth-hunger did not rage among the Dutch at the start in
this country. A whole generation after the planting of the post
on Manhattan in 1623, and the people were yet traders, mainly
from Holland, with a sprinkling of adventurers of like mind
from almost every country of Europe. They had come to buy
and sell and get gain, and had scant thought of building for
selves or children permanent homes on the soil. A
East River at Breuckelin, Flatbush, Amersfoort, and contiguous
points a few farmers had found what attracted them, but even
after the English occupancy in 1604 there was little change.
Elizabeth Town, to serve Ian ; is, was a company,
gathered mainly as seems from New England, of < »gdens, Tuttles,
Dickensons, Mar I hiteheads and Woodruffs, tl
cestor of the writer's family, Thomas Skill-. . them but
not of them. The latter was fifth in that list of sixty-five who on
February 19, 1665, took oath of allegiance to Charles II, and thus
made a sharp push to give Nova Cesarea or New Jersey its
place in the land. But the settlement thus strenuously at-
tempted did not flourish or grow. It took fifty years more
before earth-hunger came really to the people, ami about 1700
emigration was begun. Among Dutch farmers of Flatbush,
Nieuw Utrecht, ami other points as Dutch Kills and Newtown a
warm craving arose for the New West of the day (New Je;
setting first toward the Navasinks, so called, rich corn lands of
Monmouth County, and then by way of Staten Island going up
the valley of the Raritan and its affluents, South River, the
Millstone, North Branch and South Branch, and so further .
soon reaching every nook and co region.
Harlingen Church lay at the extreme west of this most promi-
nent field of Dutch migration from New York. It was at the
further end of a very great parish which was ministered to for
many years, or from 1720 to 1747, by Domine Theodoras J 1
Frehnghuysen, ancestor of all bearing that wellknown name in
New Jersey and America. The center of the parish wa
which so. .n Somerville with its churches j^rew up, and it
covered Somer
Hunterdon (long known as "the garden of the Dutch Church "),
and in the beginning
..ton with Neshanic, Hillsborough <>r

282 Earliest Baptismal Records of the Church of Harlitigen [Oct.,
the north or west of it. The latter was not known as Harlingen
till 1766, but was commonly called op dc Millstone, or the church
over or beyond the Millstone, before that from the river valley in
which it lay, and then Sourland. These early settlers from Long
Island homes about New York took their church along with
them. It would have been better, perhaps, had they not, or had
they taken it with more religion or godliness and brotherly kind-
ness to their new homes. For the spirit of contention, dull or
fierce, marred these churches throughout at the first and for a
long period. This was because of faction among them, the
coetus standing for home-rule ecclesiastic, and the confercntie
(Dutch name for Latin) opposing with great persistence and
indescribable acridity, and by repute, without scruple. So the
baptisms in Sourland or early Harlingen puzzle us. Domine
Frelinghuysen took full charge there in 1729 but baptized no
children at the start as appears, the ordinance being administered
by the opposing or Arondeus faction so called. We have reason
to believe that families of prominence at the beginning stood
aloof from or indifferent to the church. Not a Skillman name,
for instance, appears in the list here of earliest baptisms, though
there was a number subject to that rite at that time in the land,
owning households of the parish as Jan Skillman and his brother
Isaac. So it was with Beekmans, affiliated with these by mar-
riage, more numerous, still larger land holders, and with a host
of children. Not one of these grandchildren of Christoffel, son
of the famous Gerardus of Flatbush, is in the record. And so
very likely it was with others of the pioneers. Church animosity
wrought unreckoned evil at the time in this important field.
And now follows verbatim the translation (by whom pre-
pared we are not told) of Volume I of these first annals of Har-
lingen Church:
"The baptisms of the reformed dutch Church Here
having been recorded in the low dutch language from
the first origin of said Church on the 23d August 1727 to
Feb. 1796 (inclusive), and the sd language having be-
come nearly obsolete, & understood by very few, the
present Consistory of sd Church has resolved that to
preserve such records, they be translated & copied over
in the book in the english language as well as the names
admit of."
These baptisms were administered at the start, and so far
as any evidence goes to show, continued to be adminstered
throughout, by Domine Henricus Coens, he being pastor from
1725 to 1730 of the churches (Dutch Reformed) of Aquackanonck,
Second River, Pompton, and Ponds (New Jersey), dying there
1735. As Corzvin's Manual, Millstone, 1869, tells us, "He wrote
to Holland a detailed account of the troubles between the
churches of Second River and Aquackanonck." These today are
the Reformed churches of Belleville and Passaic, New Jersey.
The record as translated here follows. Any explanation or
additions in each instance are given by the editor in square
brackets:

This carries us down to where a break occurs. The records
are virtually a blank for ten years, or from 1734 to 1744, and
what is given therein is far from satisfactory. This is because
of repetitions in some instances, and localities seem confounded.
But this is more apparent than real. The name " Raritan," it
is true, has no place here, and is to be accounted for from the
fact that the whole region at an early day was at times called
"the country of the Raritons." The name "Millstone" and
" Sourland " at first used were at length gradually dropped as
applied specially to this church, and the Harlingen name came

eventually to take their place, derived from Domine Johannes '
tinus Van Harlingen, born in that region, educati d in Holland,
and pastor of that church and of Neshanic from i ;6j to 1795.
The record given above is from Book I of the Dutch. In Book
II, the first baptism recorded, among scattered notes, is of date
May 19, 1737. These later minutes are valuable, but for geneal-
ogy they are defective, as the household names of the mothers
in the baptisms are not given. This is to be regretted. Still
these maternal names, with patience ami a measure of worthy
zeal, could be even yet recovered, as ought to be done for the
sake of the church, the thousands of families represented in its
history, and the untold generations of those coming later. It is
greatly to be desired and hoped that there will be an effe>
movement toward this before it is forever too late.

tion concerning the female lines. It also contains the war records of tin-

preserved them for all time. To the careful indexing, revising and printing of
these records a member of the Publication Committee of the Society has
devoted many years of able and painstaking labor. In addition to the names
of those born, baptised, married and died are added the parents and many
sponsors and witnesses, swelling the alphabetically arranged index to nearly
sixteen thousand names.
Hudson Tercentenary. An historical retrospect regarding object and
quest of an all water route from Europe to India; the obstacles in the way;
and also Hudson's voyage to America in 1609 and some of its results. By
Gen. Frank Chamberlain, 9 South Hawk St., Albany, N. Y. Press of J. B.
Lyon Company, Albany, N. Y., 1909. 8vo, pp. 101.
An excellent resume of the reasons and object of Hudson's voyage to
America and it appears before the public at a particularly opportune moment
in view of the recent Hudson-Fulton Centennial.
Greene (Grene) Family of Plymouth Colony. By Richard Henry
Greene, A.M., LL.B., 235 Central Park West, New York. Privately Printed.
1909. 8vo, pp. 145, including index.
This is an excellent work embracing the genealogical record of William
Greene, the original settler in Plymouth, and his descendants to the ninth
generation inclusive. The work is excellently printed and is well indexed,
and as the subject matter is the compilation of Capt. Greene its excellence
requires no further guarantee. It is copiously illustrated with family portraits.
Stephens-Stevens Genealogy. Lineage from Henry Stephens or
Stevens of Stonington, Connecticut, 1668. By Plowdon Stevens. 1909. 8vo,
pp. 358, including index. Frank Allaben Genealogical Company. New York.
1909.
This is a very creditable work including the record of nine generations of
the descendants of Henry Stephens of Stonington, Connecticut, with an ap-
pendix and an excellent index; and is a valuable addition to the somewhat
limited information of the Stephens-Stevens family.
Beatty-Asfordby. The Ancestry of John Beatty and Susanna
Asfordby, with some of their Descendants. By Mrs. Samuel Rudolph
Turk. Frank Allaben Genealogical Company, publishers. Small 8vo, pp. 184,
including index.
This is an excellent little work dealing with this particular branch of the
Beatty-Asfordby family and will be of great value to students of genealogy
along these lines; and is a fair example of the excellent work emanating from
the press of the Allaben Company.
Colonial Families of America. By Frances M. Smith. Vol. I. 8vo,
pp. 358, including index. Frank Allaben Genealogical Company. New York.
1909.
An excellent work containing short sketches of the American families of
Bacon, Bailey, Baldwin, Ball, Bancroft, Bradford, Brooks, Brown, Cary, Conway,
Dickinson, Dubois, Edwards, Field, Fisher, Fox, Freeman, Goodridge, Griffith,
Hawley, Horton, Loomis, Manning, Martin, Merritt, Miner, Montgomery,
Osgood, Phillips, Read, Roosevelt, Savage, Sewall, Smith, Todd, Wallace,
Wendell, Wilson, Winslow, Wright. With numerous armorial cuts. This
work has more to do with the origin of these various families than with their
genealogical records.

PEDIGREE CHARTS.
The New York Genealogical and Biographical Society
226 West 58th Street, New York.
This Society has for sale official forms of genealogical charts called
" Register of Pedigrees." These registers are of two varieties, called " single "
and "double" charts. They are each paper covered books of 11 x 16 inches in
size, properly ruled and printed for the insertion of names of ancestors in succes-
sive generations. The single charts consist of 17 pages, and when filled in will
give all of the ancestors in all ramifications for g generations, arranged so that the
family name of each of the 16 great-great -grandparents occupies a page. Family
names appear on the marginal index which is formed by the indentation of each
leaf. The back of each leaf is arranged for special memoranda concerning the
persons named on the page facing it.
The double charts are practically two single charts combined. The object
being to devote the first half of the chart to the registration of the complete pedi-
gree of the male line, the second half for a like registration of the female line, and
the double chart therefore provides for the registration of 10 generations in both
male and female lines.
The price of these charts to members of this Society is as follows:
Printed on Bond paper, paper cover :
Single Charts, 75 cts. Double Charts, $1.50
To those who are not members of the Society:
Single Charts, $1.00 Double Charts, $2.00
Printed on Extra Heavy Linen Ledger paper, bound in stiff cloth covers:
To Members of the Society:
Single Charts, $1.25 Double Charts, $2.00
To those who are not members of the Society:
Single Charts, $1.50 Double Charts, $2.50
Members of the Society, or others who purchase these Charts and fill them in as fully as pos-
sible and present them to the Librarian of the Society for filing in the Society's Library, will re-
ceive a new one in exchange therefor without additional cost. These charts may be purchased by
application to the Librarian.
It is the desire of the Trustees that the members will supply themselves with these registers,
fill tbein out as far as possible and file them with the Society. When received these will be bound
in volumes, fully indexed, and will thus form a record of inestimable value to the Society.
Those who have in their possession full information as to their individual ancestry are espec-
ially urged to obtain these Charts, fill them in and file them with the Society, as information of this
nature is very frequently lost to posterity owing to negligence on the part of those possessing it to
make record thereof, in special depositories provided for that purpose.

WHO WERE YOUR ANCESTORS?
Do you know? If you wished to join one of the patriotic societies, could
you reply to the question that would be asked about your ancestry? Why not
gather some facts regarding your family through the Genealogical Depart-
ment of the Boston Transcript, the great clearing house of genealogical data?
Twice a week, on Monday and Wednesday, the Transcript prints columns of gen-
ealogical questions and answers. No other paper in the United States gives so
much space to the fascinating and interesting study of genealogy. Send for
sample copies. In them you wiU find full directions regarding the use of the col-
umn and you may chance on jusi V information you have been seeking.
It matters not in what sec of the country your ancestors lived; if the
data is obtainable, you will undoub ) be able to obtain it through the Tran-
script, the correspondents of the department being found in every state in the
Union.
The subscription price of the Monday and Wednesday Transcript is $3.00
per year, $1.50 six months, $1.00 three months.
