JAMES PYNE (PINE) OF HEMPSTEAD, LONG ISLAND,
AND SOME OF HIS DESCENDANTS.
By John B. Pine.
James Pyne who settled in Hempstead during the first half
of the seventeenth century appears to have been the first of the
name to make a permanent hwne in this country, though one
Thomas Pyne was admitted a i#eeman of the Colony of Massa-
chusetts Bay as early as 1635, and "Thomas Pines" fought in
the French and Indian Wars.
The name of James Pyne, or " Pine " as it was afterwards
spelled, is found in the Town Records of Stamford, Connecticut,
which was settled in the summer of 1641, by a " companie of
Wethersfield (Mass.) men," under a grant from the New Haven
Colony. He does not seem to have been of this "companie " but
to have followed them very soon, as he received an allotment
from the town of the usual house lot and wood lot, Dec. 7, 1641.
When he came to Massachusetts Bay, or by what vessel is not
known, nor is anything known definitely as to his ancestry, but
there has long been a tradition among his descendants that
he came from Devonshire, which, according to Sir William Pole,
who wrote in 1590, had been "the long contynewed Dwellinge
of the Family of Pyne." It seems very probable that he
was the James Pyne, son of William and Mary Pyne, who was
baptized in Woodbury, near Exeter, Devonshire, England,
on June 4, 1608, and who married Edith Williams in St. Mary
Magdalen, Taunton, an adjoining town in Somersetshire, in
Sept., 1630.* This James Pyne continued to live in Wood-
bury until 1640, when his mother Mary died, appointing him
as her executor. His father had died in 1636, leaving con-
siderable property, consisting mostly of horses, cattle and sheep,
from which it is to be inferred that he was a yeoman. After
* Records of the Court of the Peculiar of the Custos and College of Vicars
Choral, Woodbury, Exeter.
2 James Pyne (Pine) of Hempstead, Long Island, [Jan.,
1640 the name disappears from the town records of Woodbury
almost simultaneously with its appearance at Stamford, Con-
necticut. The titles in the books mentioned in the will of James
Pyne of Hempstead, show that his religious sympathies were
with the Puritans and suggest a reason for his coming to America.
His probable age tends to prove the identity, for on his death in
1686, he left several grandchildren, and his oldest son was a man
of mature years, so that he might very well have been 78 years
of age, which would have been the age of James Pyne of Wood-
bury in that year.
Savage mentions a James Pyne who was in Hartford in 1647,
and refers to Trumbull's Colonial Records, from which it appears
that at a General Court held in Hartford, May 24, 1647 (vol. i,
pp. 150, 158), "James Pyne" was declared to have "forfeited his
recognizance for non-appearance," and again on Oct. 29, 1647,
"James Pyne (was) bound in a recognizance in ;^2o, provided Pyne
keepe good behaviour until the Court in May at Fayerfield and
appear there." No record of the court held in May has been
preserved, so the cause of Pyne's offending is not disclosed.
During the time that he remained in Stamford, James Pyne
seems to have taken no part in its affairs, which were in a rather
disturbed condition, on account of the dissatisfaction of the
townsmen with the limited franchise which they enjoyed under
the New Haven Colony.* The Stamford men complained that
the New Haven men made laws and laid the rates, and that they
had no votes, no liberties and no justice, and, apparently in the
hope of securing greater liberty, a number of families determined
to remove to Long Island and to place themselves under the
Dutch Government. In 1643, a few individuals from Hemel
Hempstead, near London, had commenced a settlement on Long
Island, and named it Hempstead, and thither in 1644, after
buying a tract of land from the Indians, the Rev. Richard Denton,
the minister of Stamford, and several others betook themselves.
A charter for the Town was on Nov. 16, 1644, secured from the
Governor and Council of New Netherlands, giving the settlers
considerable municipal powers and the " right to exercise the
reformed religion which they profess."!
The name of James Pyne (or Pine) does not appear in the first
allotment of town lands, but his non-appearance at Hartford in
1647, upon his recognizance above mentioned, can very probably
be explained by the fact that being unwilling to " keep good
behaviour " by paying the taxes and conforming to the church
discipline of the New Haven Colony, he had followed his towns-
men to Long Island. It is certain that he moved there before
1656, for on July 4, of that year, he joined with other inhabitants
of Hempstead in a letter to Governor Stuyvesant, claiming that
if they were compelled to pay tithes, the Government should
reimburse them for injuries received from the Indians. From
* Huntington's History of Stamford, pp. 39 and 73.
t O'Callaghan's Laws and Ordinances of New Nelherland, i, 42.
1912.] and Some 0/ His Descendants. 3
this it must be inferred that he was a land owner at the time
this letter was written, and in the following year, as the Town
Records show, he received an allotment of thirty-one acres of
meadow land. From this time his name appears frequently as
owning land, and in a list of freeholders and the number of acres
owned by each in 1685, contained in the Town Records, James
Pyne is put down as owning 500 acres, that being the largest
amount belonging to any individual. In 1664, "James Pine, an
inhabitant of Hempstead was made a freeman of Connecticut,"
which indicates that he still owned land in Stamford and tends
to identify him with the early settlers of that town.*
In 1674, the Rev. Richard Denton having in the meantime
returned to England, James Pine and others united in petitioning
Governor Andros (as the father of the Commonwealth) " to instal
such authority among them as may be a means under God for
upholding and maintaining the ministry and worship of God
among them, that his honor may be promoted and his sabbaths
observed for the good of themselves and their posterity." Pre-
viously to this, in 167 r, the Town had at a public meeting con-
tracted with Richard Charlton " to keep a Schoole and to instruct
ye Children & Youth there to write and read," and also built a
Presbyterian meeting house, and passed an ordinance compelling
attendance at its services under severe penalties for non-atten-
dance. Presumably, the applicatian to Governor Andros for a
minister was successful, for in 1682 James Pine and three of his
sons are included in a list of subscribers to the minister's salary.
The ordinance just cited would seem to indicate that the founders
of Hempstead had carried with them the rigid Puritanism of
Massachusetts Bay and New Haven, but an evidence of somewhat
greater liberality may perhaps be found in the fact that as early
as 1 668, they permitted a horse-race " not so much for ye di vertise-
ment of ye youth alone but for ye encouragement of ye breed of
horses."
On April 17, 1685, Governor Dongan granted a new Charter
to the Town, and James Pine is named as one of the patentees.
In the following year he died leaving a will, which is on record,
as one of the earliest wills in Queen's County.f
The will indicates that he was a man of considerable education
and reading, as it mentions the books which he leaves to his
children, rather an unusual legacy in those days, and they include
" Mr. Hooker's Works," probably referring to the Laws of Eccles-
iastical Polity (London, 1662); Peter Heilin's Cosmography (Ox-
ford, 1622); the works of Dr. William Sclater, a prominent
theologian of the seventeenth century, the Ecclesiastical History
in English, and The Marrow of the Oracles of God, by Nicholas
Bifield (London, 1660).

4 James Pyne {Pine) of Hetnpstead, Long Is/and, [Jan.,
The will also distributes a large amount of land among the
testator's children, and considerable personal property, quaintly
suggestive of the peculiar value then attached to the " longest
gun or fowling piece," the " middle gun and the greatest iron
pot ;" the " middle best iron pot and the biggest bell metal skillet,"
set forth in detail, which is almost equivalent to an inventory of
household effects. As he does not mention his wife, it must be
assumed that she died before him, but he refers to the following
children, viz.: — his eldest son John, and James, Nathaniel, Jona-
than, Samuel; also two younger sons, William and Benjamin;
also his daughters, Lea, Agnes, Sarah and Susan; his grand-
daughter Mary, the daughter of his son John, and his "cosen,
John Smith."
From the frequent occurrence of the family name in the
records of Hempstead and its vicinity, it is evident that de-
scendants of the original settler continued to live there for more
than a century and a half after his death, but his descendants
are now widely scattered. It is probable that a very large pro-
portion of those now in this country bearing the name of Pine,
owe their origin to James Pine of Hempstead, and through him
trace their ancestry to the Pynes of Devonshire, though the
Devonshire family is represented in this country through several
other lines.
The destruction of church records, especially those of West-
chester County, during the Revolution, has rendered it impossible
to connect the various branches of the family with any degree of
completeness, but some facts as to the earlier descendants of
James Pine may be stated with certainty.
John, the eldest son of James, in 1672, received a grant from
the town of a "home lott by his father's . . . and privileg
to keep half a dozen cattell in summer," and in 16S6 he was
authorized to set up a grist mill. In 1700 he served as Lieutenant
in a company of infantry raised by Governor Bellemont, and in
1703 he was chosen one of the first church wardens, repre-
senting the Parish of Oyster Bay and Hempstead, subsequently
incorporated as St. George's Church, Hempstead.* He died in
the same year leaving considerable real estate, which he divided
between his sons Daniel and John. His widow, Abigail, and his
daughter Mary also survived him.f Daniel married Sarah Carle
and proved himself a good citizen by serving as a Commissioner
of Highways, and as a vestryman of St. George's, of which the
Rev. Samuel Seabury was rector. He is described in Jones'
History of Neiv York in the Revolutionary War (vol. ii, p. 39),
as "a worthy loyal subject who during his life opposed the
Rebellion in all its stages." He died during the war, leaving
his farm to two of his nephews living at Fishkill, beyond the

John married Grace Carman and in 1758 sold his grist-mill
(long known as " Persell's Mill") to Herman (or Hendrick)
Onderdonk, and moved with his family to Fishkill on the Hudson,
where they were among the first settlers, and where the Rev.
Mr Seabury had but a short time previously established Trinity
Church. He evidently continued his occupation for by his will,
proved Nov. 27, 1781, he devised his grist-mill to his sons Silvanus
and Philip. To his oldest son, Joshua, he left his farm at Cow
Neck (now Sands Point), Long Island, and to his daughter
Abigail, wife of Nathan Bailey, personal property, including a
silver tankard and teaspoons.*
Joshua married Sarah de Milt of New York City, Jan. 26, 1751,
and lived in Hempstead until shortly before the outbreak of the
Revolution, when he removed to what is now the Bronx and
engaged successfully in the flour business. But on the beginning
of hostilities, he and his family were driven from their home by
the British, and he removed to Fishkill, after having been im-
prisoned for several months. During the war he owned a sloop
by means of which he conveyed supplies to the American Army.
His son John served as a Captain of Westchester County Guides
in the American Army with honor and courage (Bolton's Histary
of Westchester County, vol. i, p. 25). In 1785, Joshua Pine joined
several other families in settling the town of Walton on the
Delaware River in Delaware County, where he was a leading
citizen and held various offices. f He died in 1802, leaving three
sons, Peter, Joshua and Daniel, and two daughters, Sarah and
Rachel. Of these, Joshua married Margaret Remsen, became
Judge of the Court of Common Pleas, and represented the county
in tiie Assembly in 1807. He is described as a man of more than
ordinary integrity and business ability. J Silvanus, the son of
John of Fishkill, married Judith , and carried on his father's
business as a miller until 1799, when he died, leaving Martha,
Abigail, Thomas, Elizabeth and Nancy. § Philip married Phebe
Howard of Dutchess County, Oct. 15, 1765.1 He was a Trustee
of Trinity Church, Fishkill, and was enrolled in the Second
Regiment of Dutchess County Militia in the Revolution. About
1790 he removed to Tompkins, Delaware County, where he died
in 1818, leaving two sons, Daniel and Peter. The last named was
a member of the Assembly in 1820, 1824 and 1831, and a Presi-
dential Elector in 1828. He also left four daughters, Sarah
Underwood, Betsy Butler, Martha Brown and Phebe Youmans.T
James, the second son of the settler, was also a considerable
land owner, and his name appears frequently in the town records.

6 James Pyne {Pine) of Hempstead, Long Island, [Jan.,
He was one of the building committee of St. George's Church in
i734~35. and joined in a petition for the incorporation of the
church.* He seems to have left no children.
Jonathan was one of the colony from Long Island which in
1690, settled in eastern New Jersey. He held local offices and
seems to have left a number of descendants, as many of the name
appear in subsequent New Jersey records. f
Samuel married Rachel Ellison and is mentioned as a land
owner in 1685 in Thompson's History of Lotig Island, vol. ii, p. 17,
and in the Genealogy of the Willis family he is stated to have
died leaving no children {B. & G. Record, vi, 103).
William married and had a son James, who married Ann
Bedell in St. George's Church on Nov. 23, 1753. Their children
were Richard, William, David and Elias. William also left three
daughters, Mary and Elizabeth, who married Joseph Hall, Jr.,
and his brother, and Sarah, who married Joshua Smith, |
The descendants of Nathaniel and Benjamin have not been
traced, but one of them appears to have had a son James who
married Mary Brush of Huntington§ on March 24, 1735; and had
a son James and two daughters, Mary and Esther. || This James
appears to have been the one who moved to New Rochelle in
1746 and purchased 156% acres of land on the Sheldrake River.l
He was in 1762, one of the petitioners for a charter for the
French Church, and subsequently was named as one of the
incorporators of Trinity Church.** He died about 1783, leaving
a will by which he devised his lands and mill at New Rochelle
to his grandson James. He also left bequests to his son Samuel,
living in King Street, Fairfield, to his daughters Elizabeth Willis
and Mary Bonnet; to Phoebe and Hannah, daughters of his son
John of Eastchester, and to Elizabeth and Mary, daughters of his
son Micah, and to James, the son of James, of Rye. ft The last
named died about 1757, leaving James, John, Benjamin and Smith.
His wife was Phoebe Willis, a sister of Richard Willis.
Many others of the name are mentioned in the records of
Queens, Westchester, Dutchess, Greene and Ulster Counties,
who are evidently descendants of James Pine of Hempstead, and
as to whose connection there can be no doubt, though it cannot
always be traced. Three brothers who are to be included among
these descendants, James, Samuel and William Pine, settled in

Kingston, Poughkeepsie and Beekman, respectively. James Pine
was born in 176S, and married (i) Margaret, daughter of Major
Henry Schenck and Hannah Brett of Fishkill, and had children,
William, Catherine, Robert Brett, Edward and Harriet, all of
whom were baptized in Fishkill, as shown by the church records;
and Maria and Margaret, who were baptized in Kingston, as
shown by like records. On the death of his first wife he married
(about iSii) Olive Walker, born Nov. 26, 1789; died 1876; by
whom he had four children, George Washington, Laura, James
and Ann Eliza. He died April 29, 1822. Samuel Pine who
settled in Poughkeepsie, was born in 1775, and married Susan
Storms. He died in 1842, leaving two sons, Perlee and Henry.
The latter married his cousin Harriet, the daughter of James
Pine, last mentioned. The third brother William appears to
have served as a Captain in Col. Field's Dutchess County Regi-
ment, in the Revolution, and to have died about 1823.*
Besides those mentioned, several of the name served in the
army during the Revolution. James and Benjamin Pine were
captains, and William Pine a sergeant in the Hempstead Com-
pany of Queens County Militia, of which David and Richard Pine
were also members. (A^. Y. Documentary History, iv, 137). John
Pine was enrolled in the Second Regiment of Westchester County,
and Samuel Pine in the Third Regiment of the same county.
Another John Pine was enrolled in the Fifth Dutchess County
Regiment, and Philip and Robert Pine were enrolled in the
Second Regiment of same county. {N. Y. in the Revolution, and
New York Archives, N. Y. Revolutionary Rolls, i, 147).
Another and apparently different family of the same name
lived at Pine's Ferry, Westchester County, during the Revolution.
Stephen Pine was a loyalist, and it was at the bridge across the
Croton River, which succeeded the ferry, and which was known
as "Pine's Bridge," that Andr6 parted from his guide. Smith, on
his way to New York shortly before his capture. The estate of
Stephen Pine was forfeited and in 1783, he went to New Bruns-
wick, and settled near the River St. John, where he died in 1786,
leaving three sons, Henry, Alpheus and Stephen. f
Another Pine of Tory tendencies was Samuel of Massa-
chusetts, who is described as "one of the eighteen country
gentlemen who were driven from their habitations to Boston,
and an addresser of General Gage on his departure in 1775."
The foregoing notes, however fragmentary, will at least
preserve the name of one of the early settlers of Long Island,
and render considerable material which has not heretofore been
printed, accessible to some future descendant who may have
the benefit of records as yet undiscovered and the disposition to
pursue the writer's investigations.

EARLY RECORDS OF SALEM, WASHINGTON
COUNTY, N. Y.
Through the courtesy of Miss Harriet M. Williams of Salem,
Washington County, N. Y., the Record is enabled to publish
the following original lists of the very earliest settlers of that
town. The fac-simile of the subscription list for building the
first church* in that region is dated 1769, and is probably the
earliest original document pertaining to the settlement of the
town in existence. The assessment roll, dated 1794, containing
the names of every holder of real or personal property in the
town is valuable genealogically, as many of these people
emigrated direct from the old country. The originals are in
possession of Miss Williams, having been recently discovered
among the papers of her great-grandfather, Gen. John Williams,
and were generously loaned for publication in this magazine.
James Turner, Hamilton McCollister and Joshua Conkey were
the first settlers of Salem. They came from Pelham, Mass.,
about 1764, but not until 1765-7 was there any considerable
settlement of the town; so that the 1769 list was made up of
those who had but recently arrived.
The assessment roll, dated twenty-five years later, containing
the names of about 350 taxpayers, indicates rapid settlement of
the town simultaneously by two colonies: one from New England
and the other from the North of Ireland.
The records are rendered more valuable from the fact that
these early settlers, while possessing marked intelligence and
culture, were very careless about preserving vital statistics. No
records of births, baptisms, marriages or deaths were kept by
the churches; at least the writer has been unable to discover
any such records covering the first hundred years of the
churches' existence there. tobias a. wright.

86. Capt.mn Josiah^ Thacher (Deacon Josiah,'' Hon. Col. John,'
Antony,^ Rev. Peter^), born Yarmouth, Mass., July 7th, 1701 ;
he resided at Yarmouth, Mass., and Norwalk, Conn. ; he was
a Sea Captain engaged in the coast trade, and a man of af-
fairs in Norwalk ; he died at Norwalk, Conn., August 22nd,
1780, "Tuesday at 8 hours and 44 minutes in the morn-
ing." He was buried, presumably, at East Norwalk, Conn.,
between the graves of his two wives ; no stone marks his
grave, but the space left between his wives' graves suggests
his interment there. He married, first, at Norwalk, Conn,
(according to Sellcck's Norwalk), on February 17th, 1724, to
Ann Burne (Burr, Bun or Bunce; probably Burr, according
to Allen's Thacher Genealogy, p. 42). She was born at on
March 2Sth, 1699, and died at Norwalk, Conn., February 25th,
1733-4, "between 9 and 10 at night, aged 34," and was buried

ond time, at Boston, Mass., by Rev. Sam'l Checklcy, of the
New South Church, on August 7th (or September 15th), 1735,
to Mary (Greenleaf) Blinn (daughter of Rev. Uaniel Green-
leaf of Yarmouth and Boston, Mass., by his wife Elizabeth
(Cooking) Greenleaf; and widow of James Blinn, whom she
married March 16th, 1725). She was born at Cambridge,
Mass., August 29th (or September 25th), 1706, and died at
Norwalk, Conn., April 2nd (or 6th), 1744, and was buried at
Norwalk, Conn., in East Norwalk Cemetery where a stone

Captain Josiah=* Thaciier was a mariner in the coasting trade
between Boston and Cape Cod and along Long Island Sound. He
lived in Yarmouth, Mass., until about 1725 when he acquired land
in Norwalk, Conn., from Alexander Ressiquie. The deed of this
transfer of land is to be found in Norzvalk Land Records, Vol. V.,
folio 285; it is dated December 22nd, 1725, but is recorded of date
December 31st, 1724; and in said deed Josiah Thacher is described
as being of "Yarmouth in Barnstable County in Province of Massa-
chusetts Bay in New England." By this deed he acquired a house
lot of three acres. The place of the first marriage of Josiah°
Thacher is not a matter of record, but Selleck, in his History of
Noricalk, states that it took place in Norwalk, Conn. The maiden
surname of his first wife is variously stated by different authorities
as being Burne, Burr, Bun, or Bunce. His family Bible and Free-
man's Cape Cod, however, specifically state that her maiden sur-
name was Burne, and I have therefore so recorded it. Where his
first wife lived at the time of her marriage or where she was born
or who were her parents is not a matter of record. In the East
Norwalk Cemetery there is a gravestone to her memory thus in-
scribed:— "Here lyes buried the body of Mrs. Ann Thacher, wife
to Mr. Josiah Thacher, aged 34 years and il months. Died Feb-
ruary ye 25th, 1733-4" (hence she was born March 25th, 1698-99).
Alongside of this grave, with a space between sufficient for an-
other grave, is the grave of Josiah^ Thacher's second wife, which
grave is marked by a stone thus inscribed : — "In memory of Mrs.
Mary Thacher, wife of Capt. Josiah Thacher, who departed this
life April 6th, A. D. 1774, in her 68th year.
Who follow here ye paths of truth
Shall bloom in everlasting youth.
Clad with new glories they shall shine
In charms immortal and divine."
Mary (Greenleaf) Blinn, second wife of Josiah' Thacher, was
the widow of James Blinn, to whom she was married March i6th.
1725. This James Blinn was probably the son of Mr. Blinn and
Margaret Dennis, who were baptized at Milton, Mass., by Rev.
Peter* Thacher (Rev. Thomas^), July 20th, 1701 ; where this James
Blinn lived and died is undetermined. It is stated by some authori-
ties that Mary Greenleaf had 10 children by Mr. Blinn, which
statement seems incredible, as she married him March i6th, 1725,
and married Josiah= Thacher on August 7th (or Sept. 15th), T735,
which would render it necessary for her to have had 10 children in
a little over 10 years. Josiah^ Thacher had 10 children, — 4 by his
first wife and 6 by his second, and I think the authority above re-
ferred to confused the 10 children of Josiah'* Thacher by his first
and second wives, with 10 children supposed to have been born to
Mary Greenleaf by her first husband, James Blinn. Wm. F.
Boardman. in the Ancestry of Jane Maria Greenleaf, states that
1 912.] Thacher-Thatcher Genealogy. 4 1
Mary Greenleaf had i6 children ; which would mean that she had
lo by James Blinn and 6 by Josiah^ Thacher. I am inclined to
doubt the existence of these lo Blinn children, as I have never seen
any record of their births or deaths. The place of burial of Jo-
siah° Thacher is not positively known ; but in the East Norwalk
Cemetery between the graves of his first and second wives there
is a vacant place where it is presumed he lies buried. No record
of his burial exists.
Captain Josiah^ Thacher died intestate. On September 17th,
1780, the bond of Josiah^ Thacher, Jr. (the eldest son of the de-
ceased), as administrator of the estate of his father was accepted.
In 1782 Josiah° Thacher and Eliphalet Lockwood were allowed to
sell land on the account of the estate of the late Captain Josiah'
Thacher. May 6th, 1782, the inventory of Josiah' Thacher was
filed. This inventory takes up 1 1 pages of the Fairfield County
Records. On November 3rd, 1783, another sale of land on ac-
count of the estate was ordered. November 13th, 1783, the ac-
counts of Josiah" Thacher as administrator were allowed. Jan-
uary i6th, 1786, the distribution of the estate was ordered. August
6th, 1790 distribution of said estate was finally allowed and ordered.
In the probate records of Fairfield, Conn., Vol. 1795-1818, p. 678,
we find the following record of final distribution :
"We the subscribers being by the Honorable Court of Probate
for the District of Fairfield appointed to make distribution of the

as appears by the terms of his mother's will. His widow returned
to Yarmouth, Mass., and married a second time to Captain Job
Gorham of Barnstable, Mass., as his second wife. Mrs. Sarah
Freeman, widow of Lieut. Edmund Freeman, died in 1746, and
in her will left legacies "to the four sons of my son Isaac, de-

was a very attractive young lady possessing both personal
and mental charms; her hand was sought by two gentlemen of
great respectability, Freeman and Gorham. Both urged their suit
earnestly. She had so warm a regard for both of them that in
the unsophisticated tenderness of her heart she forbore giving pref-
erence to either of them, and left it to the two suitors to decide
between themselves. No bloodshed occurred, but Freeman was de-
clared the victor and was rewarded by the hand of the fair Bethia.
When she became a widow, she returned to the scene of her youth-
ful conquest and became the second wife of Captain Job Gorham
(her first husband's rival), who had in the meantime, on Decem-
ber 4th, 1719, married Desire Dimmock (daughter of Thomas),
who had born to him five (5) children, and who died January 28th,
1732-3-
The will of Capt. Job Gorham of Barnstable, Mass., gentle-
man, is dated September 12th, 1753, and was proved November
2nd, 1762. In it he names his wife Bethia Gorham and daughters
Temperance Fuller and Desire Gorham, to whom he gives legacies.
All the remainder of his estate he gives to his son Thomas, whom
he appoints his executor. Capt. Job Gorham inherited the dwell-
ing house built by his grandfather (Capt. John Gorham) in Barn-
stable and the lands in its immediate vicinity ; and the same was
held by his descendants as late as 1888. In 1745 he took down
the old mansion and built the one which was standing in 1888
on the same spot. Part of the material of the old house was used
in the construction of the new one. Captain Job Gorham's children
by his first wife,, Desire Dimmock, were as follows :
1. Temperance, born Barnstable, Mass., July 23rd, 1721 ;
married October 29th, 1741, John Fuller, her cousin.
2. Thomas, born Barnstable, Mass., August 13th, 1723; mar-

Rev. Thomas^ Paine at an early age was placed under Rev.
Jonathan Russell of Barnstable for preparation for Harvard Col-
lege. In 1713 he entered Harvard, and while there pursued the
study of mathematics and astronomy far beyond the ordinary course
of these studies there at that time. His great interest in these
studies led him in 1718 and 1719 to publish almanacs in his own
name. To the study of Latin, Greek, Hebrew and French he gave
great attention, and graduated at Harvard in 1717. Having shown
an early predilection for the ministry, in August, 1717, he began
the study of theology under Rev. Theophilus Barnard of Andover,
Mass. ; and upon completion of his studies he accepted a call and
was ordained minister at Weymouth, Mass., on August 19th, 1719;
he remained there until 1730, when ill health compelled him to ask
for his dismission. He then went to Boston to reside and soon be-
came engaged in commercial pursuits. He carried on a trade with
the Southern Colonies, West Indies, and the new port of Halifax,
N. S.. and with England and other foreign ports, and soon acquired
considerable wealth. He was also engaged in the manufacture of
cannon and the casting of shot; he had foundries in Abington and
Bridgewater. In the summer of 1749, his business affairs became
involved in consequence of the capture of some of his vessels, and
on account of the depreciated value of the existing currency, and
general business conditions ; and his property was swept away. His
health gave way, and he made a voyage to the West Indies ; and on
his return made Halifax his place of residence. There he turned
his attention to the study of law with the intention of practising.
His health becoming greatly impaired, he was compelled to abandon
his studies and he returned toBraintree, Mass., to a village nearby
called Germantown, where his daughter Abigail Greenleaf lived;
and at her home passed to his rest and was buried at Weymouth,
Mass. He was undoubtedly a man of great talents, learning and
piety.

his wife Mar\', who was Executrix, and will was admitted to ad-
ministration May 22nd, 1728, "the said widow and her father,
James Paine of Barnstable, being granted letters of administration."
Edmund Hawes, second husband of Mary^ Paine, was ruined finan-
cially by the depreciation of Continental paper currency. In Jan-
uary, 1777, the paper currency then in circulation was at 5 per cent.
discount, in July it was at 25 per cent, discount, and before the end
of the year three dollars in paper would not command one dollar
in silver. The depreciation was so rapid that finally a paper dol-
lar was only worth two or three cents. Edmund Hawes had sold
his home to a Mr. Doane (the property since known as the Dr.
Savage estate) and had been paid therefor in Continental paper
currency, which almost immediately thereafter became worthless.
Mr. Hawes, being thus reduced to poverty, went into the woods
and hung himself. It is a singular fact that his only son also com-
mitted suicide.

ment of John Kean's estate, which took place in 1801, see
Plymouth, Mass., Probate Records, Book No. 37, pp. 106-8, "Di-
vision of Heirs of John Kean," the balance of estate is divided
into shares and one share is allotted to heirs of Rebecca Smith,

a daughter of John Tilley and his wife ( ) Tilley. John Howland, his
wife Elizabeth (Tilley) Howland, and John Tilley and his wife (the mother of
Elizabeth Tilley) were passengers on the first trip of the Mayflower in 1620.

was copied by Stanley W. Smith, 3q5 Beacon Street, Boston, Mass., from the
Gustavus Hinckley copies of Barnstable Cemetery Records in the New Eng-
land Historical-Genealogical Society's Library — and not from the stone itself.
Note: — In preparing the records of John Tilley and his wife ( )
Tilley, and that of their daughter Elizabeth Tilley, I was guided by the state-
ments made by Miss Annie A. Haxtun in her published Signers of the May-
flower Compact, Part II, p. i, New York City, 1897. Miss Haxtun there states
specifically that John Tilley (the i6th signer) was married twice, 1st to
Elizabeth , and 2nd to Bridget Van der Velde. Miss Haxtun in her time
was regarded as good authority and hence my acceptance of her statement.
Since the compilation of this portion of these records Mr. George Ernest
Bowman has conclusively proven that the John Tilley who married Bridget
Van der Velde in Leyden', Feb. 13, 161 5, was not John Tilley the i6th signer of
the Compact. (See Mayflower Descendant, vol. x, pp. 65-6-7.) I have there-
fore corrected my article on the authority of Mr. Bowman, whose article, at the
igi2.] Copy of Family Records of E lias Mulford 6l
time (April, igii) of going to press, had not been brought to my notice. As
Miss Haxtun's authority for stating that the baptismal name of John Tilley's
wife was Elizabeth is not given in her work, and as I find no further authority
for such statement, I have corrected my article so that both the baptismal
name and the maiden surname of John Tilley's wife remain unstated.

DESCENDANTS OF EDWARD TRE(A)DWELL
THROUGH HIS SON JOHN.
By William A. Robbins.
Member of the New York Genealogical and Biographical Society
and Long Island Historical Society.
Continued from Vol. XLII, p. 430, of the Record.
Deed, dated 20th of August, 1747, from John Reynolds of
Dutchess county, New York, yeoman, quit-claiming to Col. Wil-
lit and Samuel* Tredwell grantor's rights unto lands taken in
Mr. Adolph Phillips' upper patent in Dutchess county. Deed
from Phebe Tredwell, widow of John' Tredwell, dated the 12th
of April, 1748, and the bond executed in consideration thereof,
already mentioned under John' Tredwell (page 313, July, 1911,
Record).
Samuel' Tredwell was one of the executors named in the last
will of Samuel Hitt of Harrison's Purchase, dated the 17th of
August, 1742, and probated the 22nd of November, 1742.*
"Being sick," Samuel* Tredwell made his will bearing date
the 4th of January, 1747, which was probated in Westchester
county the nth of April, 1748, and recorded in Liber 16 of Wills,
page 242, in the office of the Surrogate of the county of New York,t
where the original is still on file.

74 Descendants of Edward Tre(d)dwell through his son John. [Jan.,
In this will are mentioned testator's wife, Margaret, to whom
was given the use of all his real estate in Rye until their son
Samuel became of age, then the use of one-third thereof, and,
upon her death, the property to go to Samuel; his three daughters,
each under eighteen and unmarried, namely, Gloriana (eldest),
Margaret (second^, and Mary (youngest), to whom were given
the proceeds of the sale of the two pieces of land his uncle Col.
John' Tredwell left him. The will further mentions the con-
tinuance of testator's indisposition at the time of said uncle's
death and names testator's wife, brother Benjamin Tredwell,
and brother-in-law, John Thomas, as the executors.
One of the papers in the possession of the late Mrs. Joseph
Augustus Treadwell, was the inventory of " the Goods and
Chattels ... of Samuel Tredwell Esq Late of the Town of
Rye," dated the 19th of April, 1748, and made by Jeremiah
Fowler and Joseph Isinghartt, who appraised the personal estate
left by Samuel' Tredwell at _^7i4-5S.-2d. Among other things
it mentions his Bible, books, many horses and cattle, farming
implements, and six slaves.
In Liber E, page 276, of the Hempstead town records, is a
copy of a deed dated the 27th of April, 1748, from John Thomas
and Margaret Tredwell, widow, both of Rye, executors of the
last will of Samuel' Tredwell, conveying to Thomas' Tredwell of
Hempstead, gentleman, 45 acres of upland and meadow on the
east side of Hicks' Neck, on the south side of Hempstead; also
20 acres of upland and meadow on the same neck. Benjamin
Tredwell was one of the subscribing witnesses.*
Samuel' Tredwell's widow married Judge David Jones. In
his will dated the 28th of November, 1755 (?i765), William Willett,
Jr., of Rye, mentions her as sister Margaret, wife of David
Jones, Esq.f
This has prompted the claim that the maiden name of Mar-
garet (Tredwell) Jones was Willett. But, in this will, the testator
also mentions Gloriana, the wife of Edward Stevenson, as his
sister, and John Thomas as his brother. Edward Stevenson is
known to have married Gloriana Thouias.X The explanation is.
Col. William Willett, the father of William Willett, Jr., married
Margaret, the widow of the Rev. John Thomas and the mother of
the said Margaret Jones and Gloriana Stevenson.
His wife Margaret is mentioned in Judge David Jones' will
dated the 26th of July, 1768, and also in the codicil thereto, both
of which were probated the 27th of October, 1775, and recorded
in Liber 30 of Wills, page 31, in the office of the Surrogate of the
county of New York.§
Margaret (Tredwell) Jones left a last will dated at Harrison,
the 20th of January, 1789, which was probated the 21st of March,
1789, and recorded in Liber A of Wills, page 113, in the office of

Jean, to Timothy' Tredwell of Smithtown, Long Island, conveying
Yi part of a tract of land near "Blew Hills" in Ulster county

BOOK NOTICES.
Editorial Note:— The New York Genealogical and Biographical Society solicits as
donations to its Library all newly published works on Genealogy. History and Biography, as well
as all works on Town, County and State History, or works emboaying information regarding the
Vital Records of any and all localities. It also solicits the donation to the manuscript collections
of its library any and all manuscript compilations which bear upon the above mentioned topics.
In consideration of such donations the works so presented to the Society will be at once
placed upon the shelves of its library and will be reviewed in the next subsequent issue of The
New York Genealogical and Biographical Record, each donation of such character,
whether in printed or manuscript form, will be reviewed under the head of " Book Notices" and
a copy of The Record containing the review will be sent to the donor.
The Society does not solicit donations of publications or manuscripts on topics foreign to
the above mentioned subjects, as its library is specialized and cannot accommodate material
which does not bear directly upon its recognized sphere of usefulness.
Igi2.] Book Notices. \0'\
Donations for review in the January issue of The Rf.cord should be delivered to the
Society before December ist of the previous year; for the April issue, before March 1st; for the
July issue before June ist; and for the October issue, before September ist.
All donations will be generously reviewed with a view of calling the attention of the public
to their good points; but, while generous, the reviews will contain such proper criticism as the
interest of the genealogical student would expect from the editorial staff of The Kucokd.
The "Book Notices" of The Recoro are carefully read by all librarians as well as
genealogical students, and the review of a work in The Record is equivalent to a special
advertisement of such work.
Letters of transmittal of donations of such works should embody the price of the work
donated and the name and address of the person from whom it can be purchased.

Right Reverend Anson Rogers Graves, S. T. D., LL.D., small octavo cloth,

Anna Seward of Mansfield Woodhouse.
Class History, igog. Sheffield Scientific School, Yale University.
Edited by Frank G. Burke, Jr., Class Secretary, and a Committee. Vol. I.
New Haven. Printed by The Tuttle Company, Rutland, Vt., 1909, 8vo, cloth,
pp. 351— XXV.
This volume is of course intended chiefly for the Class of igog, and so it
contains cartoons and various jocose allusions which are of especial interest to
the men themselves. Besides this nonsense, however, the portraits and
biographical sketches of the class will prove of value to genealogists and
perhaps, some day, to biographers.
Chancellor Robert R. Livingston, of New York and his Family,
by Joseph Livingston Delafield. Pamphlet, pp. 45, reprinted from the report
of the American Scenic and Historic Preservation Society for igii. Printed
by J. B. Lyon Company.

Dwight Dana, Class Secretary, and a Committee. Vol. I. New Haven.
Printed by The Tuttle Company, Rutland, Vt., 1911. 8vo, cloth, pp. 414.
This is another of the class histories, so interesting to friends and so
valuable to biographers of the future. The plan of adding statistics con-
cerning relatives of the class who have been Yale men lends genealogical
interest to the work.

A. M. New York. The De Vinne Press. 1908. Svo, cloth, pp. XVI-607.
Price S7.50.
An immense amount of historical and biographical research, is represented
here, and the references in the foot-notes add most satisfactorily to its value.
In addition, the work has been very fully illustrated with portraits, views,
book-plates and facsimiles. It is of interest to know that Trinity Parish
established the first library in New York, in 1698. The New York Society
Library was founded in 1754, and its great services to the colonial town are
ably set forth in this work.
Foreman-Farman-Forman-Genealogy. Descendants of William

Conn, by Elbert Eli Farman, LL.D. Octavo, cloth, pp. 232. Limited edition of
100 numbered copies. Price S5.00. Published by Tobias A. Wright, New
York, 1911.
Few men possess the ability, experience and means to gather and put into
concise and simple order such a vast amount of genealogical data as this book
contains. Mr. Farman has made it easy for thousands of his kin to trace their
ancestry to William Foreman who came to America in 1675 and settled near
Annapolis, Maryland; in fact he has traced it for them, and the publisher has
spared no pains or expense to produce a book worthy of the matter it contains.
Type, presswork, paper and binding, all show the practiced hand of the master
book-maker. The illustrations, 15 portraits, 2 ancient tombstones, and the
family coat-of-arms, beautifully reproduced in colors, add artistic tone and
historic interest, while a very complete index, the boon of all genealogical
gleaners, completes this very unique and dignified volume of 232 pages.

EDWIN HENRY WEATHERBEE.
By Richard Henry Greene.
Edwin Henry Weatherbee, son of Henry Micajah and Mary
Angell Weatherbee, was born at Chatham, Columbia Co., N. Y.,
Sept. 23rd, 1852. It was my privilege to bring him into this Society
and he became a life member Jan. 6th, 1896; and in 1890 was
elected to fill the vacancy in the Board of Trustees caused by the
death of Samuel Burhans, Jr.
He was prepared for college at the Amenia Seminary and
Hopkins Grammar School at New Haven, Conn. He entered Yale
University and was graduated in the Academical Department in 1875
with the degree of A. B. After teaching for two years as principal
of the High School of his native city, he entered the School of Law
in Columbia University, and was graduated in 1879 with the degree
of LL.B. and was admitted to the New York bar. For three years
he was associated in the office of the U. S. District Attorney for the
Southern District of New York, under Hon. Stewart Lyndon
Woodford, District Attorney, who had been Colonel and Brevet
Brigadier General in the War for the Union, Lieutenant Governor
of the State of New York, and since United States Minister
Plenipotentiary to Spain.
On Nov. 15th, 1881 Mr. Weatherbee married Miss Amy Henri-
etta Constable, daughter of the late James M. Constable, of the firm
of Arnold, Constable & Co., the great mercantile house founded by
Aaron Arnold in 1816, who was the grandfather of his wife, and of
which he became the head, and was sole manager at the time of his
death, having entered the firm in January, 1882.
John Wetherby came at the time of the Puritan emigration in
1630-32, during the conflict between Charles I and Parliament.
He came from Norfolk, the Puritan section of England. There is
a town named Wetherby in Yorkshire. The name is variously
spelled, changes occur in the first vowel and the termination, but
undoubtedly the family is one. John the emigrant ancestor, mar-
ried early in 1672, Mary, daughter of John Howe, Jr., born Jan.
18th, 1654. John Howe, Senior, came from Warwickshire. Both
families lived in Sudbury and Marlborough, Mass.
8
I lO Edwin Henry Weatherbee. [April,
John and Mary Wetherby had three sons : Joseph, born Sept.
18th, 1672, who married Elizabeth, Feb. 9th, 1699 ; John, born
March 26th, 1675 ; and Thomas, born Jan. 5th, 1678, married
Hannah Woods, daughter of John and Lydia Woods, Feb. 20th,
1699. She was born in Marlborough in 1677, and died Jan. 23rd,
1713. Thomas and Hannah had : Thomas, born in 1705 and Silas in
1707. They removed to Grafton, and again to Shrewsbury, Mass.
John Woods was the eldest son of John Woods of Sudbury, who
was the Sergeant of the garrison house in King Philip's War, and
John Wetherby also volunteered at that time to defend the town.
The time assigned me is inadequate to trace the line to the subject
of our sketch, but enough has been said to show his earliest an-
cestors were patriotic Puritan men and women.
The father of Mr. Weatherbee was prominent in politics, and in-
terested in early railroads. He was elected to office, and showed in
his administration thereof the training he had received from his an-
cestors. He married Mary Angell, a descendant of Thomas' Angell,
born in England in 1618, who came to this country on the Lion in
1630 from London with Roger Williams. He was a minor. He moved
to Salem, Mass. in 1631, and went with Williams to Providence,
R. I. in 1636. His wife Alice died in 1693 and he the next year.
They had two sons and four daughters: John^ Angell, born 1646,
died July 27th, 1720, married Jan. 7th, 1669, Ruth Field, daughter
of John. She died 1727. He served in King Philip's War, they
had four sons and two daughters. Daniel' born May 2nd, 1680,
married Hannah Winsor, she died June 16th, 1750. Ezekiel*, born
1722, was a baptist minister at Smithfield, R. I. He married Ruth
Sprague, and died Sept. 27th, 1782. She was born Dec. 6th, 1728,
and died Dec. 22nd, 1816. Joshua', the third son, born at Smith-
field, March 29th, 1760, served as a soldier in the Revolution, though
but fifteen when the war commenced. He married Mehitable Man-
ton. They removed in 1807 to Kinderhook, N. Y., and later to
Chatham in the same County. He died Feb. 10th, 1838, and his
wife Oct. 2nd, 1825. John", the eldest child, born Aug. 20th,
1794, at Johnson, R. I., married Amy A., daughter of Joseph
Harger. She died May 11th, 1874. They had three sons and Mary
Angell who married Henry M. Weatherbee.
The Harger family lived at Stratford and Derby, Conn. The
tradition states that they were Huguenots, and came from New
Rochelle, N. Y., into that state. Jabez Harger, born in 1642, who
married in 1662, Margaret, daughter of Henry Tomlinson, and died
in 1678. They had Samuel, born Sept. 29th, 1663, Ebenezer, born
Dec. 25th, 1674, Abraham, born April 1st, 1677, and Jabez,
posthumous. This was the family of Joseph Harger, the great-
grandfather of Mr. Weatherbee. His great-grandmother Mehit-
able Manton, shown above, was the daughter of Daniel Manton and
Patience Eddy. This family was of Providence, R. I., the earliest
being Edward who lived there until his death in 1682.
Daniel Manton was one of the organizers of a Troop of Horse,
chartered by the Assembly of Rhode Island in 1775. It was called
I912.] Edwin Henry Weatherbee. 1 I I
the Captain Generals Cavaliers. They did duty about their home
town Providence, and in May, 1783, the return of the ofBcers was
approved by the General Assembly as follows: Daniel Manton,
captain ; Caleb Harris, first lieutenant ; Nicholas Eddy, second
lieutenant; John King, Jr., cornet, and William Waterman, quarter-
master. Mr. Weatherbee joined the Sons of the Revolution as a
descendant of Captain Manton.
Mr. Weatherbee, as before stated, married Miss Amy Henrietta
Constable, daughter of James M. Constable, a nativ-e of Storington,
Surrey, England, and Henrietta, his wife, daughter of Aaron Arnold,
who came from the Isle of Wight, England, where for generations
his ancestors had lived on a property known as, Waytes Court,
Broxton. This name Mr. Weatherbee gave to his place on the
shore at Mamaroneck, N. Y., which was originally part of the De
Lancey family's grant from Queen Anne of England.
Mr. Weatherbee found time amid his engrossing business and
social engagements to travel, visiting all parts of the world and
some places frequently. He has been a successful competitor at
various horse shows, and has taken an interest in yachting, driving,
riding and sports of various kinds, while his taste for literature and
the arts was not neglected.
The end came unannounced and quietly, while in company of
his wife and daughters at the performance of " Ea Boheme" at the
Metropolitan Opera House. Just as the curtain rang down on the
last act he slipped from his chair and became unconscious. In the
box with them. Dr. Samuel Milbank, the fiance of his daughter,
was present and gave every attention. He was removed to his home
and remained in a critical condition from that evening, (the 7th),
until he died, Sunday, Feb. 11th, 1912, in the 61st year of his age.
His children : Henrietta Constable Weatherbee (Mrs. Caleb
Potter Read), Hicks Arnold Weatherbee and Mary Angell Weather-
beee, who is engaged to Dr. Samuel Milbank, were all with him at
the end. The city home was at 240 Madison Avenue.
He was a member of the Chamber of Commerce, the Sons of the
Revolution, the New York Genealogical and Biographical Society,
New England Society, Metropolitan Museum of Art and American
Museum of Natural History, and the following Clubs: Union
League, Metropolitan, Yale, University, Reform, City, Riding and
Driving, Michaux Bicycle, Knollwood, Jockey, New York Yacht,
American Yacht, Larchmont Yacht, Westchester Horse Show Asso-
ciation, and a director of the Y. M. C. A.
Notwithstanding this, he seldom spent any time at any of these
for he was not a clubman. He was essentially a home man, and
was happiest there; and when he strolled over his estates, or drove
up to his different places, or sailed in his launch upon the sound,
he always wanted some of his dear ones with him in his usual trips
at the week-ends, when at home; for every year he went abroad,
though he had travelled extensively in manj' different countries, as
well as having seen all parts of his own.
112 Edwin Henry Weatherbee. [April,
His love of family was not confined to his own domestic circle,
for he was interested in the scenes and homes where his ancestors
had lived ; so much so that he had purchased many of these, on
both sides, thus showing his fondness for them and their surround-
ings. These he not only restored, but enlarged and fitted up, add-
ing artistic decorations, and beautifying with rare and costly woods
and ornaments ; sometimes supplementing the skill of his architects
with his own contributions gathered in his travels; and in the house
upon the Sound, he reproduced many of the old world features in a
more beautiful and elaborate copy, which the old Hall on the Isle
of Wight could not aspire to.
His was a sunny disposition, full of mirth and witticism, this
playfulness was very noticeable even at the last meal with his
family. His good taste and kindness held him in check, remembering:
" True wit is like a brilliant stone,
Dug from the Indian mine.
Which boasts two diEferent powers in one,
To cut as well as shine.
Genius, like that, if polished right,
With the same gifts abounds,
Appears at once both keen and bright.
And sparkles while it wounds."
It is so easy for the wit to be led into the playful word that
makes a wound, perhaps an enemy for life, like Poor Yorick, whose
wild way of talking cost him ten enemies for every joke." This
man was far too tender for that.
I have spoken of the places bought by him, yet, in acquiring
these he never disturbed the former owner or occupant, but drew
them into a friendly employment, and on his visits talked with
them of his plans and theirs, with all the friendliness of equals.
Here was the explanation of the respect and love from all his sub-
ordinants, in business and other places. Arrogance and oppression
were never in his treatment of any man. Augustine's rule applies
to him: "Make companions of few, be intimate with one, deal
gently with all, speak evil of none." His college room-mate seems
to have been his close friend to the end.
He was passionately fond of nature , and Columbia County between
the broad Hudson and the magnificent Berkshires was just the place
for its full enjoyment; not merely this, but education, and as
Milton says :
" In contemplation of created things,
By steps we may ascend to God."
So of that other fondness which he had — music. Whoever
knew any but a good man with these ? Shakespeare truly says
"The man that hath no music in himself.
Nor is not moved with concord of sweet sounds.
Is fit for treasons," —
and all the world is ready to admit the truth, and then rise to the
higher note of Dr. George W. Bethune: " Music, celestial visitant !
so familiarize us with thy high and saintly language in this lower
1912.] "Frame" Van liuskirk. Ill"
sphere, that we may be the better purified and prepared to join in
the new song, in that clime, whence thou hast thy source."
Mr. Weatherbee was a member of the Church of the Incarna-
tion, Madison xV venue and 35th Street. He was also a Vestryman
of that church, and an intimate friend of its pastor. Rev. H. C.
Robbins, its rector.
The business will be continued by the family, and Hicks Arnold
Weatherbee, his only son, a graduate of Yale, of the class of 1908,
will manage it for them. May the virtues of the father be so im-
pressed that there may be no diminution of upright faithfulness
in the business and of the family.
The funeral services were held at the Church of the Incarnation,
Madison Avenue and 35th Street, and the large attendance testified
to the estimation in which the deceased was held by a large circle
of friends, representing every walk in life.
"FROME" VAN BUSKIRK.
The Wanderings of a New York Family.
By W. L. Bartlett.
Genealogy has its surprises and romances. The typical delver
into vital records does not suggest much romance, it is true, in
his round-shouldered search of maddening indices, but he often
uncovers a story which traces a thread of romance through
centuries. Imagine the pleasurable interest with which a man
discovers that some New England ancestor was hanged as a
witch at Salem. Among the surprises of genealogy may be
mentioned the Scotch-Gaelic speaking negroes whom Kipling
speaks of in his " Captains Courageous." And in Creole Louis-
iana the very names on the streets have a French and Spanish
background which fades into romance. Back of all this is the
sombre tinge of black blood, which often brings tragedy into
genealogical research. Witness the young man of wealth and
honored name who incautiously consulted the parish register
only to find " F.M.C." (free man of color) against his maternal
grandfather's name. He committed suicide and his beautiful
sister became insane.
In a certain Massachusetts city a few years ago lived a man
whose ancestry, while not at all famous, suggests several points of
interest. He was commonly called "Frome" van Buskirk. A
little inquiry into his Christian name would show that it was
spelt " Vroom." In a land of Adamses, Lunts, Dows and Batons,
a land of as thorough Yankee connotation as can be found, lived
the owner of this Dutch patronymic, which would have passed
muster in Amsterdam itself.
8a
114 "Frame" Van Buskirk. [April,
But Vroom van Buskirk was not Dutch in appearance, manner
or thought. He was as thorough a Yankee, to look at him, as any
Adams or Eaton among them. In fact he had become a perfect
part of his environment. As for van Buskirk's ancestry the
reader has of course placed him as Dutch of the first water,
Dutch as windmills, or cheese, or anything else which suggests
the heroic land of dikes and canals. But if you asked the man
himself what he was, he would have answered that he was a Nova
Scotian. Yes, in the county histories of the Annapolis Valley
will be found the genealogies of the Vrooms and the van Bus-
kirks. There in a country wrested from the Indians by the
French, and from the French by the English, within a short jour-
ney of Longfellow's Grand PrI these families have been Nova
Scotian farmers for three or four generations. Here they were
and are indistinguishable from the English families about them,
yet retaining their Dutch Christian names, and preserving the
Dutch pronunciation. What Englishman would pronounce
Vroom as " Frome ? "
The Vrooms and van Buskirks were British Tories who were
brought to Nova Scotia from New Jersey and New York at the
close of our Revolutionary War. Thus they figure not as listless
subjects of whatever power they happen to be under, but as
profound partizans. They were enthusiastically loyal to King
George, so much so that they sacrificed their properties and their
homes for his cause.
We can but wonder if these families accepted British domina-
tion as eagerly as they afterwards clung to it. What were their
feelings when Col. Richard Nichols sailed up New York Bay with
his "three hundred valiant red-coats"? Search of Diedrich
Knickerbocker's famous history fails to identify them as welcom-
ing the dreaded English ruffians, and it is more probable that
they were among the sullen Dutch who gazed at the English
troops from their garret windows, and resolved to get even with
their conquerors by not inviting them to dinner.
We have now traced " Frome" van Buskirk's genealogy to its
first American setting and there we will leave him. America has
many similar stories of the vicissitudes and wanderings of family
names, as interesting as those of Europe. The story of these
Dutchmen had its parallel in some German stripling, straying in
advance of the great Geimanic invasion into Provincia Cisalpina,
there to be plowboy, warrior, and then, with a Latinized name,
master to the effeminate Roman noble whom he served. Thus
"Frome" van Buskirk, working at his trade in Yankee Land
brings to our mind the Dutch settler of New Amsterdam, whose
hate for his British conqueror changed into such loyalty that he
endured exile for his king's sake. He was transported to far off
Nova Scotia, only to return after a few generations to accept the
ideas and principles of those colonists with whom he scorned to
cast his lot in Revolutionary days. There as a plain Yankee, un-
mindful of his piquant ancestral history, he rounded out his life
and was gathered to his fathers.

LIEUTENANT-COLONEL BENJAMIN HUNT, THE
LOYALIST, HIS ANCESTRY AND
DESCENDANTS.
By a. W. Savary, M.A.
Wyman's Hunt Genealogy is not on]y obscure in construction
and unscientific in form generally, but abounds in errors, at least
in connection with the family to which Col. Hunt belonged.
The author professes to rely for the earlier section of his
"New York Line" on the genealogical notes and other data in
Bolton's History of Westchester County, no doubt a splendid work
as far as it deals with ordinary matters of county history, but not
so reliable in the pages of the appendix devoted to pedigrees.
His errors have been pointed out to me by my esteemed corres-
pondents George T. Fish, Esq., of Rochester, N. Y., and Benjamin
W. Hunt, Esq., of Eatonton, Georgia, to whom with Doctor
William L. Macy of King's Park Hospital, N Y., I am much
indebted for extracts from wills and other matter used in com-
piling the earlier part of this record. At the close of the
revolutionary struggle Benjamin Hunt, after strenuous military
service, came to Nova Scotia and settled at Upper Clements in
the Township of Clements, in what is known as the Ryerson
Settlement, about five miles from the town of Annapolis Royal,
where he was until his death a prominent and influential citizen.
In his deposition before the Commissioners appointed to take
evidence on the claims of the Loyalists for compensation for
their losses, sworn at Annapolis Royal, Oct. 16, 1786, and copied
in vol. 18, pp. 147-165, of the evidence as transcribed for the
New York Public Library, he gives three clues as to his origin
and identity: ist he was a native of Eastchester; 2nd he was a son
of Moses Hunt; 3rd he had been firmly attached to the crown
and government from the beginning of the troubles. This
statement distinguishes him from the Benjamin Hunt who
Wyman (pp. 169 and 170), jumping at the unreasonable con-
clusion that he was the same man, says "commanded a regiment
called Jersey Blues " on Long Island and with fifteen men
achieved the exploit of capturing thirty British troops by
stratagem, citing Bolton, ii, p. 484. (Bolton's revised history,
which I will hereafter cite, ii, p. 658), and "finally attached to the
Loyalists he migrated to the Provinces." There were actually
four Benjamin Hunts contemporary, the scenes of whose activi-
ties were not far apart in those days of fratricidal strife, ist my
present subject; 2nd a son of a widow, Mercy Hunt, whose will
proved July 5, 1762, mentions sons Jeremiah, Pexal! and Benjamin ;
3rd a son of Thomas Hunt of Eastchester, whose will was proved
Nov. 6, 1770; and 4th Benjamin Hunt, Junior, eldest son of my
subject.
Il6 Lieutenant-Colonel Benjamin Hunt, the Loyalist, [April,
Bolton says (ii, p. 738) that the family were supposed to have
descended from a younger son of Thomas Hunt of Shrewsbury,
Shropshire, England, Bailiff* of Shrewsbury in 1613, which would
mean that Thomas the immigrant ancestor was such younger son,
or a son of his, but when he says that Thomas Hunt was Sheriff
of Shropshire and a Colonel in the Parliamentary army, he
means another Thomas Hunt. The arms assigned to the family
by Bolton are the same as given in Burke's General Armory to
the Hunts of Longnor, Shropshire, the main features of which
are common to a good many Hunt families: Per pale ar. and sa.,
a saltire counterchanged; crest: a lion's head erased per pale
argent and sa. collared, gu. lined and ringed or.\ The immigrant
ancestor of this family, like the immigrant ancestor of the great
Washington himself was a Royalist and a member of the Church
of England, escaping from the rule of the victorious enemies of
the Church and Crown, and his descendants for the most part
continued attached to the Church of England for several gener-
ations, as Bolton's pages, where they are frequently mentioned as
Church officials, sufficiently show. Some of them, however, of
the early generations united with the Society of Friends.
I. Thomas' Hunt was of Stamford, Conn., in 1650 and 1653,
probably of Rye, N. Y., in 1652, and removed to Westchester
where he obtained, Dec. 4, 1667, from Governor Nichols a
patent for the " Grove Farm " which was " ratified and con-
firmed" to him by Governor Dongan in 1686 (Bolton, ii, 268-9).
He died 1694. His wife's name was Cecilia, but I cannot give
her maiden name. He had sons:
i. Thomas," b. before 1644; m. 1665, Elizabeth Jessup.
I say before 1644 because he was old enough to sign
an important public document as Thomas Hunt,
Junior, in 1665 (Bolton, ii, 296). His eldest son
Thomas,' b. 1666; d. Oct. 25, 1739, ae. 73; m. Elisa-
beth Gardiner. Thus the second Thomas was at
first known as Thomas Hunt, Jr., and after his son
Thomas' became of age, as Thomas Hunt, Sr., of
(the town of) West Farms, while the first Thomas
Hunt became Thomas Hunt, Sr., of the Grove Farm.
When the first Thomas died his grandson Thomas
had been of age and an active participant in the
affairs of the community seven years, destined him-
self to become in time Thomas Hunt, Sr., and so
these Thomas Hunts, Senior and Junior, are more
or less confused by Bolton and Wyman. One thing
is abundantly clear: they were all men of position,
influence and usefulness. Bolton shows that the
Hunt family came into possession of Hunt's Point at
the extremity of Planting Neck in West Farms by
* Bailiff would correspond to a modern Mayor or Alderman.
t Burke also gives arms granted to a member of this family in 1623,
differing from the one just described by the addition of a crescent on the
saltire, all counterchanged and substituting for crest " a hind's head couped ar.
wounded on the breast with a pheon sa. dropping blood ppr."

the marriage of Thomas Hunt to the daughter of
Edward Jessup, and held it for nearly 160 years.
This applies to the second Thomas Hunt. It will be
seen that there is also a Hunt's Point in Nova Scotia.
ii. John, b. ; had son William bap, Oct. 7, 1680; was
a Justice in 1702.
iii. Joseph, b. before 1652, had a son of age in 1696 (Bol-
ton, ii, 311).
2 iv. Josiah.
I have followed the order in which they are named in the Indian
deed of 1692 (Bolton, ii, 290), where they with others are described
as Trustees of the Freehold and Commonalty of Westchester.
2. Josiah" Hunt (Thomas'); Bolton says he married Bethiah
Horguson, which is a mistake for Ferguson and applies not to
this but to another Josiah. He m. (1) before June 28, 1671,
Rebecca ; m. (2) before Aug. 16, 1688, Martha ; d. Dec,
1732. He was Alderman and Church Warden, 1701-2, and Justice
and Church Warden, 1702-3. His father, Thomas Hunt, by his
will (Bolton, ii, 269) shows that his eldest son was Josiah, devising
to the latter the Grove Farm, but in the pedigree, p. 738, Bolton
wrongly makes him an only son, and relegates the real Josiah
to another generation, and gives the children a different order.
I think it probable that Thomas named for his grandfather
would come next. I therefore put the order of his children, sons:
i. Josiah,' commonly called "Grove Josiah," m. (license
granted Dec. 24) 1695, Abigail, dau. of Robert, Jr.,
and Elizabeth (Bupton) Husted, and d. about 1745;
births of children are in Friends' records.* From him
is descended my correspondent Mr. George T. Fish of

3. Moses' Hunt (Josiah,' Thomas'); wife's name unknown to
me. His father, the first Josiah, by his will dated March 30, 1729,
proved Dec. 19, 1732, devised to him 40 acres of upland in the
Long Reach, being the nth lot bought of Richard Parton, also 10
acres on the Long Reach being the 9th lot bought of Dora Garret-
son and _;^75 privileges in said tract. He d. in May, 1764, and his
will dated 1760, was probated May 21, 1764. His children (ten in
all) in the order in which they were mentioned in his will were,

4. Lieutenant-Colonel Benjamin* Hunt (Moses,' Josiah,'
Thomas'). He took under his father's will his father's house and
fresh meadow " which land lyeth to the Mile Square road and
Bronx River, and so far down the river as to where there is a
great bend and a hollow in the bend, from thence East across to
the fence that joins the road from White Plains to King's Bridge,
and so up the river to the Mile Square road" (extracted for me
from Pelletreau's, Early Westchester County, N. V., Wills, pp. 51,
205-7). He declares in his petition for compensation as a
Loyalist that he was ever uniformly attached to his Majesty's
person and the British Government, and that he very early
opposed the measures of the American Congress. Here I may
note that ten members of the Hunt family of Westchester
County, April 13, 1775, led by the eminent Loyalist Frederic
Phillipse, signed a protest against sending delegates to the Con-
gress at Philadelphia, among them our Benjamin Hunt, and
later John Hunt, Esq., requested that his name be added (Bolton,
ii' P- 557)- He acted at different times as Lieut.-Colonel of the
Westchester militia during the war, and at different times had
the command of them, and was frequently out with them on
actual service. He acted as guide to the British army at the
battle of White Plains, at the reduction of Fort Kniphausen, and
on many other occasions; was taken prisoner and kept in close

confinement for ten months and his property confiscated and
sold. He says further that while the troops were in Boston he
supplied them with provisions at great risk. In Oct., 1776, he
joined the army under General Howe at Pell's Manor, and gives
further details of his military career. Other witnesses deposed
in corroboration. He estimated his losses at ^1799 English
money, and was awarded ^1585. He was drowned while at-
tempting to cross the Annapolis River between Granville and
his home in Upper Clements in July, 1796. Tradition in the line
of his son Joseph, who was born only four years before that
event, says he was aged 60, but I think he must have been older.
He died intestate. In the inventory of his estate we find one
negro man named Jone, ^20. He was evidently married three
times, but I have been so far unable to find the names of his first
two wives. Mr. Isaiah Wilson, the historian of Digby County, in
which many of his descendants live has thought that the one who
came with him to Nova Scotia was a Purdy or a Ryerson, more
likely the latter, and that he and Francis Ryerson were brothers-
in-law may account for their settling side by side. I cannot find
any record of her death, nor any gravestone in her memory. No
one knows where she was buried. I have consulted three of her
grandchildren, all of whom have forgotten her name. I have
found only a faint tradition in one line that her given name was
Mary Ann, and that the eldest daughter of her son Elijah was
named for her. His son George also named a daughter Mary
Ann. If the statement in Wyman that his first wife was of Long
Island was furnished by William Hunt his grandson it is probably
true of the latter's grandmother, the second wife. Here I may
remark that the descendants of Colonel Hunt have been migra-
tory and scattered, and have lost their family traditions to a
degree most extraordinary. He m. (3) at Annapolis Royal. N. S.,

From Angus M.Gidney, Esq., Member of the Legislative Assem-
bly and now Collector of Customs at Digby, a gentleman who
takes an intelligent interest in family history, I have acquired
information which identifies the Benjamin Hunt and Elizabeth
Gidney* whose license to marry issued Dec. 31, 1778, is given by
Wyman, p. 170. He was the eldest son of Colonel Benjamin
Hunt, and she a sister of Joseph Gidney, the Loyalist, and great-
great-aunt of my informant whose father and uncles spoke of her
as their "Aunt Betty Hunt." Mr. Gidney was present with his
father and members of the Hunt family, including the late John
Reid Hunt, Esq., all now dead, when the death of Doctor Joseph
Hunt, son of Benjamin and Elizabeth, and the inheritance of his

I20 Lieutenant-Colonel Benjamin Hunt, the Loyalist, [April,
property were discussed, and it was assumed as a well known fact
that Benjamin was the only child of the Colonel by his first wife,
thus confirming a conclusion I had reached that Benjamin,
Junior, old enough to be married in Jan., 1779, was not likely to
have been a child of the same mother as Elijah, born in 1784.
The natural presumption is that Benjamin, Junior, was of age
when he married, and if his father was only 60 in 1 796, the average
of the ages of the father and the son at their marriages was not
more than 21 years. The records of Deeds for the County of
Annapolis give a clue to the number of his children but not all
their names as there was no deed of partition of his real estate.
The law then gave the eldest son a double share, so that an estate
was divided into as many shares as there were children plus one.
We find his son Benjamin and wife Elizabeth, July 2, 1801, con-
veying to Francis Ryerson an undivided fifth and on Sept. 10,
1805, Elijah Hunt, then just come of age conveying to John
Ryerson an "equal undivided tenth part," showing that there
were nine children in all. George Hunt of Clements, Aug. 14,
1798, conveys to Moses Hunt "a/ present* of the same place,
Cooper" an "individed share," and Nov. 20, 1800, Moses Hunt,
" carpenter," and Hannah his wife convey to Francis Ryerson an
undivided half part, showing that Moses must have bought three
shares besides that of George, but I fail to find any other deeds.
The account of the Nova Scotia family in Wyman, p. 169, bears
internal evidence of having been furnished by William Hunt
(eldest son of Elijah and a grandson of the Colonel), whose family
record is at the top of the second column of that page, which with
that of his father's family and his brother Benjamin's I accept sub-
stantially as he gave it to Mr. Wyman, as far as it goes, correcting it
only where I know it to be wrong, but he does not give the names
of all his uncles, nor any of his aunts. He gives the Colonel two
daughters, but I think he had four, some of whom may have been
married before their father came to Nova Scotia as we may
perhaps safely infer from Wyman. Bolton in his chart pedigree
of the Underbill family shows marriage of Lancaster Underbill,
1772, with Eudosia, b. Dec. 24, 1752, dau. of Benjamin Hunt, but I
conclude she must have been daughter of one of the other IBenja-
mins. I find on the records of St. Luke's Church, Annapolis, Wil-
liam Griffin m. Sarah Hunt who may have been a daughter of the
Colonel. This was in Feb., 1791, the day not given, but apparently
on the same day as the last marriage of the Colonel himself.
I therefore venture to construct an imperfect list of his
children as follows — by ist wife:
i. Benjamin,' b. before 1758; m. Jan., 1779, Elizabeth
Gidney; Lieutenant in Emmerick's (Loyalist) Chas-
seurs and in the British Legion Cavalry (Coll. N. B.
Hist. Soc, vol. 2, p. 253, Sabine's App.), was of Clem-
ents 'till 1789, of Digby 'till 1791 and of New York
* The words "at present" would imply that his ordinary residence was
abroad, and I conjecture that he may have removed to the United States and
bought out sisters who had remained there and that the deeds were not recorded
for want of the formalities necessary in case of execution abroad.

Finally he lived in Brooklyn, N. Y., and died there;
had one son Joseph Gidney Tarleton', bap. at Digby,
Oct. 18, 1790, the parents having first received adult
baptism on the same day. Joseph G. T. Hunt was
a Physician, for a while practised in Bridgetown, N.
S., and afterwards in New York, where he died unm.
Benjamin, Jr., had also a dau. Caroline, who m. but
died without issue.
By 2nd wife:
ii. Moses; date of birth and death unknown; m. Hannah
. Was as a proprietor assessed for church ex-
penses at Digby, Sept. 21, 1789. The deed of 1800 is
the last trace we have of him. Notwithstanding my
conjecture in note on a previous page he may have
joined that strong current of migration from Western
Nova Scotia, especially Digby, to Upper Canada,
which began to flow about that time.
iii. Probably a daughter.
5 iv. George, b. 1768.
V. Perhaps Sarah, m. Feb. 1791, William Griffin.
vi. Probably a daughter.
vii. Probably a daughter.
6 viii. Elijah, b. Aug 21, 1784.
By 3rd wife Anna Stearns:
7 ix. Joseph Stearns, b. May 31, 1792.
5. George" Hunt (Col. Benjamin,* Moses,' Josiah,' Thomas'), was
b. probably in 1768, for he d.at Smith's Cove, Digby Co., Sept., 1850,
aged 82. He m. at Granville, N. S., Feb. 10, 1795, Anna Dobbs of
New Brunswick who died Dec, 1863, aged 85. He had children:
8 i. John,' b. 1796.
ii. Thomas.
iii. George, b. perhaps after or between the two following
daus. A Captain George Hunt m. in St. John, N. B.,
May 26, 1824, Philena Robinson, and a George C.
Hunt m. there July 23, 1833, Jane Swan. This latter
couple must have been parents of the Edward B.
Hunt of Boston, bookbinder, mentioned by Wyman,
p. 345, b. about 1836.

Esq., son of Daniel, Loyalist, lived at Smith's Cove,
farmer, mariner and innkeeper, d. May i, 1908, ae. 90.
Besides a dau. d. in infancy, and Benjamin and
Abraham who also died, Capt. Benj. Hunt had child-
ren: James Harvey' of Smith's Cove, and Benjamin,

6. Elijah' Hunt (Col. Benjamin,* Moses," Josiah,' Thomas'), was
b. Aug. 2 1, 1784, and d. in May, 1848, probate of his will having
been granted May 18, to his widow, his son Abraham S. and his
widow's nephews, Edward and John Sears. He m. Dec. 22, 180S,
at Digby, N. S., Diadama Spurr, and lived in Annapolis County,
N. S., near the mouth of Bear River and in St. John, N. B. Mr.
Wyman's informant was wrong in saying that his wife was a
" native of England, inheriting English property ;" she was a
daughter of Abraham Spurr who came with his father Michael
Spurr among the New England settlers of Annapolis County (see
History of Annapolis, pp. 151 and 656). Her mother was Mary,
dau. of Francis Le Quesne, or Le Cain, who m. Sept. i, 1745,
Alicia Maria, dau. of Thomas Hyde, who had been a " Master "
in the Ordnance Department at Annapolis Royal, in which Le
Cain, a native of Jersey was " Master Armourer." Mr. Hyde d.
in England. The account was compiled for Mr. Wyman probably
at the time that the excitement about the elusive and fabulous
" Hyde fortune " was at its height among numberless supposed
heirs in Nova Scotia and the United States. His children were:
i. Mary Ann,' b. Dec, 1809; m. Michael Hennigar.

John, N. B., where he was an official in the Custom House many

A large number of the descendants of Col. Benjamin Hunt
now live in the United States, and probably the majority of them
in Massachusetts.
Other Hunts in the Maritine Provinces.
The roll of Loyalists mustered at Digby, May, 1784, (A^. Y. Gen.
and Biog. Record, vol. xxxiv, p. 122), contains Theodis (probably
for Theodosius) Hunt, i man, i woman, and Frederic Hunt, i
man, i woman and 4 children above 10 years old in family, and
126 Lieutenant-Colonel Benjamin Hunt, the Loyalist, [April,
Thomas Hunt, no family. Probably the Frederic and Theodis
were the two sons of Nehemiah of East Chester mentioned in
Wyman, p. 167, and Frederic again on p. 337. If so Frederic
must have returned to the U. S. and settled in New Haven, Conn.,
after the rancour of the war had abated. But Wyman's list of
his children conflicts a little with tho muster roll. That of An-
napolis Royal, June, 1784, gives us Benjamin Hunt i man, i
woman, i child above 10 and i servant. I think this is Lieut.
Benjamin, Jr., whose child by a clerical error in the copy recorded
in the archives in Halifax is placed in the wrong column, for he
could have had no child over ten at that date. The Colonel him-
self had charge of a " class " in making and enrolling the muster.
Besides Cosby Hunt, Lieutenant and Adjutant, mentioned by
Sabine, Samuel Hunt and John Hunt were Loyalist grantees of
St. John in 1783. I cannot account for John Hunt who d. at
Marshalltown near Digby Jan. 12, 1846, ae. 86, and was therefore
b. 1759 or 1760, but I think he was a nephew or first cousin of
the Colonel. He m. apparently in middle age Tamar, daughter of
Captain Frederic Williams, a prominent Loyalist from West-
chester County, N. Y,, whose wife was Eleanor Pell. He is said
to have come to Digby from New Brunswick. He may have
been the grantee of that name in St. John. To the Loyalist
"protest" of Westchester County in 1775 no less than three John
Hunts, besides John, Esq., signed their names, two of them
Senior and Junior, and it was alleged by their opponents that
two of them were under age. This John, then aged about 16,
may have been one of these precocious ones; or he may have
been of another family and State. There was a John Hunt,
Lieutenant of the Loyalist " Guides and Pioneers," a corps
attached to Colonel Beverly Robinson's Loyal Am. Regt. His
wife d. July 4, 1853. They had children: i. William J., b. 1810;
d. Sept. 9, 1894; aged 84; 2. Ophelia, m. Stevenson or Stephen-
son of N. Y., and had 2 sons John and George who lived in Bridge-
port, Conn.; 3. Elizabeth, d. unm.*
William J. Hunt, son of John, in his early days a merchant
and shipbuilder at Marshalltown, Digby, m. Anna Boyne of St.
John, and had a large family scattered in Digby, St. John, Port-
land, Me., Boston, San Jose, San Francisco, Cal., Michigan and
elsewhere. There is a tradition in both families of a distant
relationship. The Hunts of Hunt's Point and other parts of
Queen's Co., N. S.,are according to More's History of that County,
descendants of Samuel Hunt, one of the pre-loyalist settlers,
probably from New England. A prominent Prince Edward
Island family is from an Irish ancestor who settled there in the
last century.
There is also a considerable family in Dartmouth, N. S., whose
source I am unable to indicate. The ancestor may have come
direct from England, or may have been of the Queen's County
family.

in Each Ear."
He was one of the signers from Queens county of the Declara-
tion of loyalty to the King, dated the 21st of October, 1776.!
Michael Rodgers of Hempstead designated Benjamin* Tred-
well as one of the executors of his will dated the 5lh of April,
1777.1 He was, likewise, named by Silas Carman of Oyster Bay,
New York, in his will dated the 21st of May, 1783. §
On Saturday night, the 2nd of August, 1780, while returning
with her son Adam from New York City in a chaise, Benjamin'
Tredwell 's wife was robbed of her horse and personal effects to
the value of ^30 by some rebels, according to the Rivinglon
Gazette.\ Dr. Tredwell met with a similar experience at the
hands of a party of British Dragoons.lf Jones' History of New
York, volume I, page 114, has an account at length of this affair,
in the course of which Dr. Tredwell is spoken of " as warm and
steady a Loyalist as ever had an existence."
In the Spring of 1781, Parmenas Jackson was cruelly murdered
by three privates from Delancey's Brigade, and Drs. Tredwell
and Searing were called in the case.**
Among the ancient family papers in the possession of Mr.
Henry Hewlett Tredwell, is an unrecorded deed dated the 7th of
May, 1784, from Stephen Titus and wife, Phebe, of Westbury, to
Dr. IBenjamin Tredwell.
In 1785, Benjamin' Tredwell and three others made a loan to
Joshua Carman, Jr., secured by the latter's bond and mortgage
upon real property in Beekman's Precinct, Dutchess county, N. Y.
According to the United States census for 1790, Dr. Tredwell's
family, that year, comprised 2 males over 16 years of age; 3 males
under 16 years; four females; and 13 slaves.
By a deed dated the 1st of May, 1792, Benjamin' Tredwell and
wife, Elizabeth, conveyed to David Allen, for ^3,000, the home-
stead farm of 160 acres whereon grantor's father died, reserving
the "Burying ground Thereon . . . to be used as and for A
Family Burying Ground " and "Road or highway leading from

reserved seems to be still in the descendants of Benjamin' Tred-
well.
His account-book, kept from 1776 to 1783, has been preserved
among the family papers and is now owned by his great-great-
grandson Mr. Henry Hewlett Tredwell. His case of surgeon's
instruments has been deposited in a public museum.
Benjamin' Tredwell left a will dated the 21st of September,
1829, which was probated in Queens county. New York, the 30th
of August, 1830, and recorded in Liber Gof Wills, page 29, in the
office of the Surrogate of said countv. In it are mentioned his
son Benjamin, to whom he left all his real estate; his sons Adam,
John, Seabury, George, and grandson Timothy Tredwell; children
of his deceased son Samuel; children of his deceased daughter
Elizabeth Kissam; his granddaughter Phebe Peggy Kissam, the
representative of her deceased mother, Phebe Allen; his son-in-
law, William Allen. Among the family papers have been pre-
served many of the receipts given by those receiving a share of
his estate.
Following are the inscriptions on the headstones marking the
graves of Benjamin' Tredwell and wife:
"In Memory of | Doct. Benjamin Tredwell | departed this
Life I June 19, 1830 | aged 95 years | i month 8 days."
"In Memory | of | Elizabeth Tredwell | wife of Doct. Benja-
min Tredwell | departed this life | April 7"", i8i8 | in the 75"' year
of her age."
She was said to have been " a woman much beloved and re-
markable for her hospitality."
The obituary notice of Benjamin' Tredwell in the Lottg Island
Telegraph and General Advertiser, issue of the 24th of June, 1830,
is, in part, as follows:f
"Such is said to have been the esteem and confidence of the
community in this aged Physician, that to the last, he retained a
large portion of the practice in the neighborhood where he
resided."
Family tradition says that at the birth of each of his children
Dr. Tredwell planted an evergreen tree in front of his house. A
majority of these trees, now aged, are still standing. His old
dwelling, greatly enlarged a few years ago, is now owned and
occupied by his great-great-grandson, Henry Hewlett Tredwell.
It is filled with many heirlooms, old furniture, books, papers and
cabinets containing curios and mementos of former days gathered
here and abroad, while the walls are covered with prizes won at
early county fairs and elsewhere.
The descendants of Benjamin' and Elizabeth (Seabury) Tred-
well are eligible to membership in the Society of Mayflower
Descendants and also in the Huguenot Society.

Susannah (Hewlett) Tredwell was married, secondly, in
Hempstead, by Rev. Thomas L. Moore, 14th May, 1787, to Daniel
Stevenson of North Hempstead.
Samuel' Tredwell resided at Success, town of North Hemp-
stead. It is not known where he was buried. He was a farmer ;
chosen overseer of highways, 1769 and 1770.*
The marriage bond, signed by Samuel Tredwell of Queens
county, farmer, and Samuel Kissam of same county, physician,
recites that the license was obtained by said Samuel Tredwell
and Susannah Hewlett of Queens county, spinster.
On Christmas day, 1766, Samuel' Tredwell entered his ear-
mark on the Hempstead town book as follows, "a slope the
fore side the near ear & a hole in same."f
2ist May, 1768, James Cornell and wife, Margaret, of Hemp-
stead, conveyed to Samuel' Tredwell 140 acre farm and dwelling
(particularly described; at Success, Dutch Church, lane, and
burying ground excepted; also land adjoining the Great Pond
used for a whitening yard, smoke-house, cider mill and mill
house; also 6 acres at Hungry Harbor; and the patent right in
Hempstead the said grantor purchased of James Smith, late of
Dutchess county. J
Samuel' Tredwell's Bible was, a few years ago, in the pos-
session of his great-grandson, William Tredwell Van Nostrand.
On one of the pages is written, " Samuel Tredwell his Book, given
him by his mother Sarah Tredwell."
Samuel' Tredwell left a will dated the 28th of August, 1781,
which was probated the 20th of June, 1782, and recorded in
Liber 35 of Wills, page 30, in the office of the Surrogate of the
county of New York, where the original remains on file. His
will, made while he was "sick and weak in body," mentions his
son William, to whom was devised testator's real estate; his
wife (name not given); his daughters Elizabeth and Susannah.
His father-in-law Benjamin Hewlett, his brother Benjamin
Tredwell, and his brother-in-law Uriah Piatt were named the
executors. §
It was probably Samuel' Tredwell's widow who, in 1787, was
allowed ^;^ for taking care of an Indian woman. ||
According to the record of a satisfaction of a mortgage in the
office of the clerk of the county of Queens, New York,1 the
name of Susannah (Hewlett) Tredwell's second husband was
spelled Stevenson, but, in Samuel' Tredwell's Bible and on her
gravestone, this name is spelled Stephenson. In 1897, the grave-

In 1783, George Carr mortgaged certain real property in
Orange county, New York, to William' Tredwell "of Great Neck,

On the records in the office of the Register of Deeds for the
county of New York is a copy of a deed dated the 2nd of October,
1784, from John Leary to William Tredwell "of New York City,

23. Samuer Tredwell (Samuel,' Thomas,' John," Edward"), bap-
tized at Rye, New York, 29th October, 1738,* died between loth
September, 1794, and 31st July, 1816; probably same who obtained
marriage license to Elizabeth Lispenard "of Westchester county,
spinster," daughter of Anthony Lispenard of New Rochelle,
New York (marriage bondf dated 3rd May, 1759, signed by
Samuel Tredwell of Westchester county, farmer, and Joseph
Boel [PBullJ of same place, gentleman).
Subsequently Samuel' Tredwell married Dorothy Anderson
" of Queens county, spinster" (marriage bond| dated 8th October,
1762, signed by Joseph Bull of New York City, shopkeeper, and
James Breasted of same place, merchant, states that license was
obtained by "Samuel Treddle of Westchester county, farmer"),
living 22nd September, 1820. Samuel' Tredwell resided in town
of Rye (part now town of Harrisons), New York, the homestead,
consisting of 200 acres, being on east side of road from Rye
through Harrisons. He was a farmer; Captain of Troop, men-
tioned on the rolls, dated 21st February, 1776, as Captain from
Harrisons' Purchase of a cavalry company in the 2nd regiment,
Westchester county, Thomas Thomas, Colonel ;§ vestryman of
Christ's Church in Rye, 1770. On the public records he is styled
"yeoman," "Esq.," "gentleman."
His commission as Captain of Troop of Horse in Westchester
county, James Van Cortlandt, Colonel, dated the 15th of June,
1772, was (1890) among the family papers possessed by the widow
of his great-grandson Joseph Augustus Tredwell. Other origmal
papers consisted principally of bonds and receipts.
In 1780, Samuel' Tredwell let for one year two rooms and an
upper chamber in his dwelling to Lewis Jacobs of Saw Pitts,
Harrisons' Township. ||
For some reason, Samuel' Tredwell became unable to pay his
debts, so, on the loth of February, 1787, he gave a bill of sale of
his slaves and household chattels as security to a William Ander-
son, and on the 5th of November, 1788, his mother bound herself
to give him ;i^4oo.|l Soon afterwards he quitclaimed his interest
in his 200 acre farm in Harrisons to Thomas Burling. 1 The

derson, and William Anderson, both of town of Harrisons, who
assigned their rights therein to Dorothy Tredwell, widow of
Samuel' Tredwell.
In the office of the Register of Deeds for Westchester county,
New York, are records of several mortgages from Samuel*
Tredwell,* besides conveyances.
In the list of confiscated estates mentioned in the Supplement
(page 258) to New York in the Revolution is the name of a Samuel
Tredwell. This is probably Samuel' Tredwell of Harrisons.
The loss of his property might explain his financial troubles in
late life.
The United States census for 1790 shows that his family then
consisted of 5 males over 16 years of age; i white female; and 4
slaves.
In January, 1795, he brought suit in the New York Supreme
Court against Benjamin Stevenson for trespass on the case.f
His widow, Dorothy, conveyed to Jesse Park, Jr., J4 interest
in certain islands nearly opposite Byram Point in Connecticut, by
deed dated the 26th of July, and acknowledged the 22nd of

The marriage bond was signed by Thomas Tredwell of Suffolk
county, yeoman, and Joseph Hallett of City of New York, iron
monger, and states that the marriage license was obtained by
said Tredwell and Ann Hazard of City of New York, spinster.
According to the census of Suffolk county taken in 1776, the
household of Thomas' Tredwell consisted of i male over 16 and
under 50 years of age; 2 males under 16 years; 2 females over
and 4 females under 16 years; 6 male and 6 female negroes.*
While living at Smithtown, his wife Ann was stricken with
paralysis. Upon the occupation of Long Island by the British
during the Revolution, Thomas' Tredwell was obliged to abandon
his home there and seek safety in Connecticut.
His mansion at Beekmantown was only a few rods from the
bay which it faced. In 1812, the English forces passed through
his farm. After his decease, the homestead was sold to Abram
Miller; and in 1870, or 187 1, the dwelling was taken down and its
timbers used in another building. Several of the inside panels
were saved and upon them a coat-of-arms with the Trertdwell
name have been carved. No authentic record, however, has
been found of any grant of a coat-of-arms to this family.
Some forty slaves accompanied the family to their new home
in Clinton county. These subsequently were emancipated and
colonized by Judge Tredwell on the high ground a few miles
northwest called " Richland," now known as " Dudy " or " Nigger
Hill."
12th July, 1788, letters of administration were issued in Ulster
connty. New York, to Thomas' Tredwell on the estate of his
brother-in-law, Samuel Hazard.
According to the United States census for 1790 (printed).
Judge Tredwell's family consisted of i male over 16 and i under
16 years of age; 5 females; and 12 slaves.
He was very fond of horseback riding, even in late life. Once,
when riding through woods, his left eye was pierced by a twig,
which destroyed the sight thereof. An oil portrait of Judge
Tredwell was, a few years ago, in the possession of his grand-
daughter, Mrs. Anna Maria Redfield; and several letters from
him and his daughters have been preserved and are now owned
by Mrs. Charles Hilton Brown of the City of New York.

The Hempstead Inquirer for 2nd February, 1832, contains an
obituary notice of "Hon. Thomas Tredwell," and quotes a long
account of his life taken from the PlattsbiLrgli Republican.

grave of her former master was buried "Old Phillis."

in 1740, and remained pastor there for thirty-four (34) years, dying
greatly beloved and respected.
The following is an extract from an original letter written by
Col. John* Thacher in 1761 to his son. Rev. Roland^ Thacher, from
which it seems clear that the latter's name was in reality Roland
Cotton^ Thacher, viz : — •
"My dear son Cotton :
Through much weakness of body, I write these few lines to
you, which I would have you receive and improve as the last and
dying words of your aged father. A few moments after you were
born, I went into the room to see my new born babe with the
mother, and after giving thanks for her deliverance, I asked her
'what we should do for a name.' 'Oh !' said she, 'I have a name
ready, if you like it. Don't you know how often that good man, Mr.
Cotton, comes in to see us? I want the child named after him.'
To which I readily complied, and at the same time, I had sudden
thoughts of giving you to God, as devoted to the work of the
ministry. * * * "
Col. John* Thacher, father of Rev. Roland' Thacher, died in
1764, aged 90; hence he was 87 years old when he wrote the above
I9I2.] Thacher-Thatcher Genealogy. 167
letter. The original was in the hands of Mrs. Elizabeth Thacher
(Benton) Bennett of Brooklyn, N. Y., who sent a copy of the same
to Hon. Peter Thacher of Newton, Mass., from which copy the
above extract was obtained.
From the Cemetery at Parker Mills Station, Wareham, Mass.,
we obtain the following graveyard inscriptions:
"Rev. Roland Thacher, Pastor of Church of Christ in Ware-
ham, died February i8th, 1775, in his 64th year."
"Abigail, virtuous consort of Rev. Roland, died October 31st,
1753— 33rd year."
"Hannah, virtuous consort of Rev. Roland, died June 29th,
1774 — 50th year."

lived there for a time, as in a deed to his brother Thomas Clarke,
of Harwich, he styles himself as "of Lyme," in 1726. How long
he remained there is not known ; but there is reason to think that
he left his children by his first marriage in Lyme and that he re-
turned to Harwich, for an original document of the nature of an
agreement between John Dillingham and the three brothers, Thomas,
Scotto and Nathaniel Clarke, made in the year 1735 styles Nathaniel
Clarke as of Harwich, Mass.

of Gloucester, Mass. ; he was a merchant ; he was born at Glouces-
ter, , 1707; died April 13th, 1779, ^g^^ 72, at Gloucester, Mass.;
he was a son of Samuel and Mary (Ellery) Stevens of Gloucester,
Mass.
Col. John' Gorham resided at Barnstable, Mass., until 1742.
In 1743 he was granted 400 acres at Gorham, Maine, on condition
that he sliould finish the saw-mill and grist-mill that he had begun
there. He did not become a permanent resident of Gorham. In
1744 he was stationed in command of a body of provincial troops
at Annapolis Royal, which place was threatened by the enemy ; and
he was sent by Governor Mascarene to Boston to raise troops for
its defense. While in Boston he was induced by Governor Shirley
to join the expedition there fitting out against Cape Breton. Hav-
ing raised a number of men for that expedition, he received the
appointment of Lieutenant Colonel in his father's regiment of pro-
vincials, and was put in charge of the whale boats which were to
land the troops. On the death of his father at Louisburg he was
promoted by General Pepperell to be full Colonel. The following
letter was written by him July 5th, 1751, from Halifax, N. S., to
General Pepperell, viz: — "I was sent up to recruit from Annapolis
Royal by Governor Mascarene, as that fort was then in great dan-
ger of falling into the hands of the enemy ; and this expedition be-
ing then in embryo, I was importuned by Governor Shirley, and
desired by your Honor and many more of the Council to raise a
number of men and purchase whale boats and proceed on the ex-
pedition ; as I did upon condition of my having the liberty of go-
ing home with your Honor's packet in my own sloop, once the
English flag should be hoisted at Louisburg. But I was disap-
pointed in this, and received no commission in his Royal Regiment.
My father died and most of his Regiment at Louisburg. But I
thank you for giving me the commission of Colonel in my father's
regiment, and nov/ I solicit a letter of recommendation abroad and
assistance to carry through my memorial to the Legislature of
Massachusetts."
Colonel Gorham returned to Annapolis Royal after the cap-
ture of Louisburg, and received from Governor Shirley the com-
mand of the New England troops sent to Minas with Colonel
Noble, but he was not present in the engagement with the French
at Grand Pre, where Noble, who was in command, was killed. He
had afterwards command of a body of Rangers comprised prin-
cipally of Indians raised in New England for service in Acadia.
Colonel Gorham came from Annapolis with the Rangers to Che-
bucto in June, 1749, and was appointed to the Council of Gov-
ernor Cornwallis and was present at the first meeting of July 14th,
1749. It is uncertain whether he held a seat in the Council at
Annapolis, as there are no records of that Council to be found be-
tween 1745 and 1749, and but one entry in 1748, in which his name
does not appear. Cornwallis however assigned him a place at the
igi2.] Thacher-Tliatcher Genealogy. l8l
Board above those gentlemen who came with him from England.
He is called Captain in the last of Cornwallis' Council, which was
probably his rank in the Regular (or Royal) Army, that of Col-
onel being only his Militia Rank. He was recommended to the
consideration of the Government by General Pepperell for his ser-
vices at Louisburg, and it is probable that the rank of Captain in
the Royal troops was then conferred upon him. Colonel Gorham's
name is among those of the Council at a meeting on July nth, 1751.
He must have died soon thereafter, for an inventory of his estate
is in the Suffolk County Probate Records of Massachusetts dated
May 7th, 1752. His widow afterwards married Col. John Stevens
and moved to Gloucester, Mass. At the close of the F"rench War,
Col. John^ Gorham and wife visited Europe and were presented
at the Court of St. James and had an audience with the King, an
honor very marked in those days.
The following is the inscription on the grave of Elizabeth
(Allen) Gorham-Stevens : — ■
"She supported through life the Christian Character, and
moved in the various circles of domestic life with honor and dig-
nity.
The affectionate wife
The tender mother
The exemplary widow
The pious friend."
Col. John'"' Gorham died in London, England, of smallpox,
while there prosecuting his claim for expenses in the Louisburg
expedition ; and he was probably buried there.

Bacon, her husband, died August 20th, 181 1.
These two statements are at variance. If she was
a widozv at time of her death she must, if Free-
man is correct, have died subsequent to August
20th, 181 1. I am inclined to think that she died

Patience Marston, September 7th, 1744. Free-
man, Vol. I, p. 354, says that he married her Sep-

Dr. Jeremiah Barker was the son of Samuel
Barker of Scituate, Mass., and his wife Patience'

of Jabez* and Patience (Stafford) Howland.
Jabez^ Howland was a son of Bethia^ Thacher by
her husband Jabez Howland ; Bethia^ Thacher
was a daughter of Antony^ and Elizabeth (Jones)
Thacher. Hence we see that both Dr. Barker and
his first wife were both descendants of Antony'
Thacher. Dr. Jeremiah Barker was educated by
Rev. Mr. Cutler of the Congregational Church in
Scituate, Mass., from whom he received a thor-
ough education in the classics ; he never entered
college. He went to Cambridge, Mass., and
studied medicine and surgery under Dr. Lincoln
of that town, and served as a surgeon in the
Revolutionary War. At close of that War he
went to Barnstable where he practiced a while,
and then removed to Gorham, Maine, under the
influence of his brother-in-law, William* Gorham,
who had settled there. After a few years he re-
moved to Falmouth (now Portland), Maine,
where he resided until 1808, when, after his last
marriage, he returned to Gorham, Maine, where
he lived and died.

and had other military experience. During the Revolution some
parties unjustly charged him with being a Tory, because he would
not advocate the extreme measures of the younger men. He was
for many years Registrar of Probate and kept the Records very
carefully. He was in public life, active, energetic and capable, —
but was never a popular man.
Ebenezer Sturgis and Ebenezer Bacon, Esq., took care of the
property of Hannah (Davis) Gorham, widow of Col. David' Gor-
ham and provided for her support during the latter part of her life.

Dr. James Hersey settled as a physician in Barnstable and pur-
chased a part of the Dimmock estate, which included the ancient
stone house built by Elder Thomas Dimmock. A tradition existed
that he lived in a house that stood east of stone house, but Amos
Otis thought it more probable that he lived in the stone house which
he owned and which at that time was in good repair. He did not
receive a college education but was none the less a well educated
man, and Dr. James Thacher, who studied medicine under him,
speaks of him as a skilful physician who had acquired an exten-
sive practice at that time in Barnstable County.

1912.] Early New York Church Records. An Official Announcement. 20I
EARLY NEW YORK CHURCH RECORDS.
An Official AnnouncemeKt.
By Walter Kenneth Griffin, of the Publication Committee.
In the January, 1912, number of the N. Y. Genealogical and Biographical
Record appe3.r notices of the addition by gift to the Library of the -Society, of
typewritten copies of Hve Early New York Church Records — those of the
Protestant Reformed Dutch Church of the " Boght," (1784-1896), now of
Cohoes, Saratoga Co., N. Y.; of tlie 1st Methodist Church of White Plains,
Westchester Co., N. Y.; of the baptismal entries, 444 in number, of the Uutch
Church of New Utrecht, L. I., (1718-1741), transcribed from the original Uutch
script; of the Uuich Church of Oyster IJay, L. I., (1741-1834), and of ihe Dutch
Church of Kakiat, Rockland Co., N. Y., (1774-1864), being a transcript of the
1st Church Book, together with the "private" marriage records of two of the
earlier ministers, Rev. George Brinckerhoff, (1793-1808), until recently supposed
lost, and of Rev. James Desmarest, (1809-1864), including the marriages cele-
brated by him at the Secession Church after he had left the old Kakiat Church.
It is not commonly known that Mr. Huntting, author of the History of the
Little Nine Fanners, has presented to the Society the original un\que record of
the Lutheran Church of Pine Plains, often called the Round 'lop Church,
Dutchess Co., N. Y., (1760-1787).
Since these gifts, hereinafter in a later article to be more fully described,
and as the result of the personal investigations,at his own expense, of .Mr. Koyden
W. Vosburgh, a member, there have been loaned to the Society in the spirit of
most courteous and intelligent co-operation on the part of the church authorities,
and for the purpose of copying, the original records, never published and
never copied, of the Protestant Reformed Uutch Church of Taghanick (West
Copake), Livingston Manor, Columbia Co., N. Y., (1 783- 1864), and of St. Thomas
Evangelical Lutheran Church of Churchtown (Claverack lownship), Columbia
Co., N. Y., (1760-1905).
The last two records (not included in the records copies of which were
collected by Mr. Burhans in the preparation of the Burhans' Genealogy), are
invaluable, not only because of the fullness of their entries, but also because
the consistorial and other minutes contain many items for the historian. The
early ignorant treatment of the insane, for example, is shown by the Church-
town entry of the death in 1840 of " Mrs. Patience Stickels, insane for 8 or 10
years. Burned to death in the night in the house in which she was chained."
And the earlier animosity against all connected with Freemasonry cannot be
better illustrated than by the minister's own note, that in 1796 there was at
Churchtown no celebration of the Communion (" Abend-mahl ''), "because the
congregation had been lead into the error either that the minister was drunk,
or that because of his connection with the P'reemasons he was in league with
the devil."
The Taghanick Record fills some 130 type-written pages in the copy, and
includes some 2, ;oo baptismal entries, a few marriages and deaths, a full list
of members, and consistorial minutes. The names, IJutch, German, Huguenot,
French, English, Scotch, etc., supplement all records of Columbia Co., and fill
many hitherto impossible gaps.
The Churchtown Luthemn Record (i 760-1905) is the more welcome because
for unknown reasons few of the early Lutheran Churches have so far been in-
cluded in public copies. It consists of 3 volumns. Vol. 2, (1802-1843), is an
official copy of the original, with some omissions and some additions, requiring
patient comparison with so much of the original as yet exists, all having been
forwarded to the Society. Most of the original Marriage and Death Lists in the
original Vol. 2 are mutilated or lost, and the copied Vol. 2 gives none of them.
Careful work will probably supply these, at least in part. Vol. 3 contains an
extensive Marriage Record, (1835-1905), and a Funeral List, (1835-1904),
n
202 Society Proceedings. [April,
which fortunately generally gives the ages at death. The earlier records are
in German, the Taghanick records being up to about 1800 in Dutch. Person-
ally I have been asked to supervise the transcription and translation. I hope
the results will be trustworthy.
These gifts and loans illustrate the growing recognition that neitherhistory
nor genealogies can be made accurate except through public facilities in ex-
amination of the early Church Records. With the early settlers the Church
was the social and community center. Round it revolved all the life then
deemed worth record, and in the Church Records alone are to be found, espec-
ially in rural communities, the proofs of earlv settlement and organization, the
names of early settlers, the trend of emigration, the growth of families, and
their marriages and deaths. Such records are no longer private. They are
the public history of the founders of our state and nation.
Natural local pride, and the recollection of such events as the Albany
Capitol fire, oppose the concentration of original records in any central
repository, equally inconvenient to all. The original records themselves,
written frequently with watered or diluted ink, and sometimes on paper not
fitted for the life everlasting, should not be submitted to casual, ignorantly
careless, or alas, criminally envious examination. Eventually, all original
records will doubtless be photo-lithographed and thus reproduced with more
than Chinese fidelity. Meanwhile, and with what is at present believed to be
a comprehensive understanding of the situation, the Society asks the aid of all
its Members and Correspondents so that the fullest possible information may
be obtained as to the existence and whereabouts of all early Church Records,
also of all Marriage Records, often held by the descendants of early ministers —
they being originally considered as the ministers' private property — or included
in the Registers of local Justices of the Peace.
The Society will then communicate with the Church Authorities or other
owners of the records, and these being willing, will accept the temporary cus-
tody of the originals, to be used for no other purpose than the prompt making
of type-written duplicate copies, by expert transcribers, and carefully compared
by competent scholars, and where necessary translated in addition to the re-
production of the original. Of these copies one will remam the property of the
Church or other owner of the record, one will remain in the Society's library,
and where other public spirited Societies may join and share the expense, the
remaining copies, say two in all, will be deposited with them for public use, and
for preservation forever.
This far reaching plan, begun with the Taghanick and Churchtown
Records, has already resulted, through the able transcribing work of Miss M.
Cohen, of the Society, in clear, accurate copies, on good enduring bond paper,
in type-writing, and will undoubtedly finally result in a series of exact copies,
carefully edited, and probably indexed, and after full opportunity of correction,
editing, notes and references, will certainly aid publication, and so give to the
public the accurate records of early times. Such a result invites to its culmin-
ation the co-operation and assistance of all the Churches, and of all students of
the history, individual and public, of the beginning of our nation.
Many private copies exist, several original and supposedly long lost
records are held as heirlooms in private hands, many Societies have originals
in their custody, almost unknown except to the members. All who can help
are invited to aid.

BOOK NOTICES.
Editorial Note;— The New York Genealogical and Biographical Society solicits as

Vital Records of any and all localities. It also solicits the donation to the manuscript collections
of its library any and all manuscript compilations which bear upon the above mentioned topics.

placed upon the shelves of its library and will be reviewed in the next subsequent issue of The
New York Gknealogical and Biographical Kecokd. each donation of such character,
whether in printed or manuscript form, will be reviewed under the head of " Book Notices " and
a copy of The Record containing the review will be sent to the donor.
The Society does vot solicit donations of publications or manuscripts on topics foreign to
the above mentioned subjects, as its library is specialized and cannot accommodate material
which does not bear directly upon its recognized sphere of usefulness.
Donations for review in the January issue of The Record should be delivered to the
Society before December ist of the previous year; for the April issue, before March ist; for the
July issue before June ist; and for the October issue, before September ist.
All donations will be generously reviewed with a view of calling the attention of the public
to their good points; but, while generous, the reviews will contain such proper criticism as the
interest of the genealogical student would expect from the editorial staff of The Record.

genealogical students, and the review of a work in The Record is equivalent to a special
advertisement of such work.

The Frost Genealogy, Descendants of William Frost of Oyster Bay,

Underbill, Feke, Bowne and Wickes Families. Compiled by Josephine C.
Frost, of Brooklyn, N.Y. Octavo, cloth, pp. 444. Illustrated. Price $1000; half
morocco, price $12.50. Frederick H. Hitchcock, Genealogical Publisher, New
York, 1912. Limited edition of 300 numbered copies.

Frost Family in England — a chapter on Old Matinecock, (now Oyster Bay), N.
Y., 280 pages on William' *Frost of Oyster Bay, N. Y. and his descendants; 26
pages on the Frost Family of Stephentown, N. Y., descendants of Thomas

genealogy of the Frost Family. It should be purchased by all Genealogical and
Historical Libraries. Intending purchasers should address: Mrs. Samuel
Knapp Frost, No. 254 Garfield Place, Brooklyn, N. Y.
Somerset County Historical Quarterly. Editor A. Van Doren
Honeyman. Published by the Society at Somerville, N. J., pp. 80.
The Genealogical and Biographical Record is glad to welcome this splen-
did new publication. Its field is the preservation of historical and genealogical
data of a most interesting county in a historical sense, and this copy is a promise
of valuable service along these lines. We wish to call the attention of all
libraries and individuals interested in these matters, especially the Revolution-
ary history of New Jersey, to this magazine.
Roster of Saint Andrew's Society of the State of New York
WITH Biographical Data. Part I, from its organization to the end of the
American Revolution, 1756-1783. Compiled by William M. MacBean, Secre-
tary of the Society. Small quarto, pp. 90, cloth. New York, 1911.
The biographical data of this book furnishes valuable material for students
of the Colonial period in New York. A great many Scotch officers in the
English Army became members of Saint Andrew's Society, and their stories are
very interesting, leading us back to the mother country. Many famous Scotch
families are represented in this roster, which will appeal to many readers and
searchers outside of the Society.
The New Haven Colony Historical Society. Reports presented at
the Annual Meeting, November 20th, 1911. 8vo, pamphlet, pp. 30. Published
by the Society, New Haven.
These reports contain with the other usual details the interesting address
of the President of the Society.
Bulletin of the Newport (R. I.), Historical Society. Pamphlet,
8vo, pp. 19.
This bulletin contains Part I of a paper on Newport County Lotteries by
Mr. Hamilton B. Tompkins. Most people are astonished to find out how often
lotteries were used by the New England fathers, in spite of contemporary

protests of the wise. Newport, like many other places, raised money in this
manner for fortifications, streets and public buildings.
Burning of Harvard Hall, 1764; and Its Consequences. By
Francis Apthorp Foster. Pamphlet, 8vo, pp. 43.
On January 24th, 1764, Harvard Hall, one of the few buildings of the young
University, went up in flames at midnight after a session of the Great and Gen-
eral Court of Massachusetts. The State generously provided, at no small cost
for another building and recompensed those who had lost property in the fire,
including the college butler and several students.
The graphic quality of Mr. Foster's pamphlet is heightened in telling the
story by the chronological use of the original records. Thus, as in Carlyle's
Life of Cromwell, told by his letters and speeches, we get an intimate view of
times and customs which is by no means the least valuable side of this article.
The students who recollected their losses with such minute memory repre-
sent some of the oldest New England families. Among the most interesting of
them was Nicholas Pike, afterwards the author of a notable Arithmetic, and an
honored school teacher. Pike, Harvard 1766, had a third of a barrel of cider in
his chambers in Harvard Hall, as did another student, for the destruction of
which the State allowed and paid handsomely.
Fort LouiSBURG: — Its Two Sieges and Site Today. Address before
the Society of Colonial Wars in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. By Louis
Barcroft Rank, Esq. Pamphlet, 8vo, pp. 34.
This address is an engaging sketch of the two successful sieges of Louis-
burg, in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. The inimitable Parkman is Mr. Runk's his-
torical authority, to whom he punctiliously acknowledges his debt.
The wonderful success of William Pepperrell and Peter Warren shows
how much perseverance and audacity are followed by good luck in warfare.
The victory was a joy and incentive to pride in all the Colonies, and as such
appeals to their descendants today. The second capture of Louisburg reflects
less glory on Provincial arms, but was a glorious victory and an important step
in the progress of the lamented Wolfe, who lived and died in the love of honor
and military glory.
Society of Mayflower Descendants in the State of Illinois.
Publication No. 3, quarto, half morocco, illustrated, pp. 301. Chicago,
Oliphant Printing Co., 1911.
This handsome volume has furnished a welcome task to the reviewer. Of
prime importance to the Mayflower Descendants of Illinois, it will be of wider
interest to genealogical seekers after Mayflower descent.
The reader is impressed with the independent story which the many and
wonderfully good illustrations tell. Views of hallowed Scrooby, Austerfield,
Plymouth, Old and New, and Leyden are scattered with lavish hand through
the book. We are reminded how much modern historical literature is enriched
by good photographic illustrations. The older Mayflower and New Plymouth
books told their noble story well, but their simple sketches conveyed no such
picture to the mind as the wonderfully fine and profuse illustrations of this book.
The old and ever new story of the inception of the Pilgrim Separatist
movement in England, the removal to Holland and thence to America
is sketched briefly and carefully. The historical matter which includes the
story of the discovery of Governor Bradford's Manuscript makes the book a
worthy addition to the literature on this subject. The binding is splendid and
the paper and all appointments are first class. The reviewer turns with a sigh
of regret from this delightful book.

ing the Motts of New York and New England, which he has been gathering for
fifteen years with the intention of publishing a comprehensive history of the
descendants of Adam Mottof Hempstead. Like all of Mr. Harris' work this
little book of 62 pages shows the painstaking care and completeness of the
trained genealogist, and it is hoped that the further results of his fifteen years"
of research may soon find their way into print.

EDMUND ABDY HURRY, M. A.. LL.B.
By Tobias A. Wright.
Mr. Hurry was born in New York City, Aug. 8, 1839, and
died at his home, 122 East 39th Street, April 8, 191 2.
He graduated from Columbia College, New York, in i860,
and in 1862 from Columbia College Law School, receiving his
degrees from this institution. In 1863 Mr. Hurry was appointed
Secretary and aid to his uncle. Captain Homer C. Blake of the
United States Navy, then commanding the U. S. S. Euta^v, and
it was while in this service when in Pensacola harbor on the
Eutaw that he bore dispatches to the Hartford, Admiral Farra-
gut's flagship, at the time a council of war was being held on the
latter vessel to determine the course to be pursued by the fleet
in the proposed attack upon Mobile. After more than a year in
this service he was obliged to retire in consequence of fever
contracted in the Gulf of Mexico. Returning to New York he
became active in professional and social affairs, and in 1868
married Emily Ashton Renwick, daughter of William Rhine-
lander Renwick, and great-granddaughter of William Renwick
(the first of the family in America), and his wife Jane (Jaffrays)
Renwick, who is said to have been the heroine of Burns' Blue-
eyed Lassie, and whose father was Rev. Andrew J affrays, D.D.,
of Lockmaben, Scotland.
While maintaining a residence in New York City, and a
country place on Barclay Heights, Saugerties-on-the-Hudson,
New York, he spent much time abroad, travelling in many
countries. Though ever a patriotic and loyal American, he felt
great pride in his distinguished English and Irish ancestry, and
devoted much time compiling and publishing in 1900 an Addenda
to the Memorials of the Family of Hurry, published in England
in 1873, in which his Hurry ancestors are traced back to the
sixteenth century. The American branch of the family descends
from Samuel Hurry, third son of John Hurry of Liverpool,
eldest son of John Hurry of Great Yarmouth, who was the
third son of Thomas Hurry of the same place, the eldest son of
Thomas Hurry with whom the pedigree begins.

2IO Edmund Abdy Hurry, M. A., LL.B. [July,
This Samuel Hurry, the grandfather of the subject of this
sketch, was born at his father's residence in Liverpool, England,
Nov. 24, 1778, and in 1795, When but seventeen years of age,
came to America and settled in Philadelphia, Pa., where he
married Eliza Ann, eldest daughter of William Whiteside.
Their son Edmund (Cobb) Hurry, born at Philadelphia, Sept. 17,
1807, married April 25, 1838, Elizabeth Maria, second daughter of
James Flanagan and Elizabeth Myers McKean, his wife, of
New York. James Flanagan was the son of Christopher Flana-
gan of Dublin, Ireland, who left that city in 1786 and settled in
New York and became one of the largest importers of books in
the United States. He was also a public speaker of note.
The subject of this memorial was the eldest son of Edmund
(Cobb) Hurry and Elizabeth Maria Hurry. Of the seven chil-
dren of Edmund Abdy and his wife Emily Ashton Renwick
Hurry: Edith Renwick is unmarried; Bessie Crosby died in in-
fancy; Helen Schuyler married William V. Draper, and has one
child, John Haggerty; Renwick Clifton married Lucy Washington
Morss, and has three children, Renwick Washington, Lucy
Rhinelander, and Emily Clarkson; Mary Crosby, married, 1st,
Walton C. Peckham, and had one child. May Hurry; married 2d,
James H. Colfelt; Emily Ashton married Louis G. Smith, and
has one son, Crosby Tuttle; Rutgers Ives married Aline Virginia
Kent, no children.
Mr. Hurry joined the Society which publishes this magazine
in 1873, and in date of membership was with one exception (the
venerable Dr. Ellsworth Eliot) the oldest member. He early be-
came active in the Society and at different periods filled the
office of Secretary and Trustee, and served on many important
committees. He had also been a vestryman of Trinity Episcopal
Church at Saugerties, N. Y., a director of the United States Fire
Insurance Company, Trustee of the New York Eastern Dispen-
sary, Treasurer of the Babies' Hospital, New York, member of
the St. Nicholas Society, St. George's Society, of New York,
Metropolitan Museum of Art, American Geographical Society,
Union League Club,University Club and other social organizations.
It was as a fellow member and worker in the New York
Genealogical and Biographical Society that the writer came to
know Mr. Hurry, as a gentleman of the old school, dignified but
kind and genial, with a rare quality of making himself agreeable
to his associates and lovable to his friends.
WALTER KENNETH GRIFFIN, B.Sc, London, B. A., LL.B.
In the death of Mr. Griffin which occurred on April 17, 1912,
the New York Genealogical and Biographical Society loses a
valuable member and one of its most able and conscientious
workers. The archives of the Society have been enriched by his
many contributions of manuscript records and the readers of this
magazine will remember him as the compiler of the extensive
Dutcher Family Records.

(Continued from Vol. XLIII., p. 188, of the Record.)
127. Major General Joseph" Gorham (Mary* Thacher, Hon.
Col. John,^ Antony,- Rev. Peter^), born May 29th, 1725; died
, subsequent to April 29th, 1790; he lived in Barnstable,
Mass., and removed to Annapolis, Nova Scotia, in 1750; he
was a soldier and a Royalist in the Revolutionary War;
he married , at , to Ann Spry, a lady of English
descent by whom he had the following: —
Children, 11 (Gorham), six sons and five daughters.
420 i. Joseph".
421 ii. William".
422 iii. Amherst".
423 iv. James Wolf".
424 V. John".
425 vi. Benjamin".
426 vii. Mary".
427 viii. Anna".
428 ix. Lydia".
429 X. Abigail".
430 xi. Charlotte Spry," born ; died , 1807;
married, first, , at , to ; married,
second. Sir John Jackson, by whom she had,
amongst others, the following child:
I. Welby Brown^ Jackson, who married and had
a son, Louis d'Aguilar" Jackson, born April
20th, 1804.
Joseph" Gorham was a distinguished soldier; he was perhaps
with his father at Louisburg in 1745; he was a Lieutenant of
Rangers under Governor Cornwallis in 1749; and a Captain of
Rangers under General Amherst in 1758-9. About this latter date
he went to England to endeavor to have the Rangers put in the
establishment of the Regular troops ; and was the bearer of a letter
from General Amherst to Governor Lawrence, dated April 30th,
1760, from which the following is an extract: —
"I send you this by Captain Gorham, who is lately returned
from England, where he has been to endeavor to get rank and to
get his company put in the establishment ; concerning which Lord
Barrington has desired my opinion which I have given him as far
as relates to Captain Gorham personally, and I make no doubt but
he will be promoted, as he is very deserving of it. I have as yet
250 Thacher-Thatcher Genealogy. [July,
suspended my judgment in regard to the establishment of his Com-
pany. His is certainly the best I have seen of the Rangers ; but the
best, according to me, is no extraordinary thing. However, if you
think that the augmenting of that company, or the establishment
of two, would be of any real service or advantage to the Province
of Nova Scotia, I shall upon your answer recommend the affair to
the Secretary of War."
The establishment of Gorham's Rangers as regular troops un-
der Joseph Gorham as Major Commandant dates from September
25th, 1761. In 1763 his troops were disbanded; and on September
of that year he again went to England, and was appointed a mem-
ber of the Halifax Council, taking his seat on December 20th, 1766.
In 1770 he became Lieutenant Governor of Placentia in Newfound-
land. In May, 1772, he became a Lieutenant Colonel and in June
of that year vacated his seat in the Halifax Council. In 1776 he
was in command of Fort Cumberland. May 16, 1782, he became a
Colonel ; and on April 29th, 1790, he was appointed a Major General,
dying soon after, probably.
Hon. George Thacher, in his MSS. Thacher Genealogy, gives
the first two children of Joseph^ Gorham, viz: — Joseph" and Wil-
liam," as one child named Joseph William" ; but Amos Otis gives
them as I have recorded them, the sons being grouped in sequence
and the daughters likewise, with no dates of their respective births.
Ann Spry was a sister of William Spry, Judge of the English
Court of Admiralty at Halifax, Nova Scotia. They both came to
Nova Scotia with another sister, Emily, arriving at Halifax, Sep-
tember 25th, 1764.

Rev. Josiah* Crocker was the friend of Whitficici and in
some traits resembled him. At the early age of 15 he entered
College and was ordained at the age of 23. He was of an ardent
temperament ; zealous and earnest, yet tender and persuasive in
his manner. Like other zealous men, he was not always cautious
in his expressions. He had many warm friends and some enemies.
His call to Taunton was not unanimous, and there were always
some who opposed him. He was dismissed from his charge I>e-
cember ist, 1774, but continued to live in Taunton until his death.
His earnest and persuasive manner drew together a large audience
when it was known that he was to preach. His granddaughter
Hannah M. Crocker was the author of the "Rights of Woman,"
published in 1818.
A memorial tablet has been erected to commemorate the loca-
tion of the house of Rev. Josiah' Crocker, 1742-1774, on the
southeast corner of Mount Pleasant Cemetery, Taunton, Mass. He
was the sixth minister of Taunton.

Hon. David Thacher was a Judge and Statesman. He inher-
ited and lived in the house of his father in Yarmouth. He was a
representative for 21 years and a senator several years in the Gen-
eral Court of Massachusetts, and was often there employed on
committees where maturity of judgment and experience gained by
careful attention to the interests of the commonwealth were par-
ticularly required. He was distinguished by talents of solid, judi-
cious and useful character, rather than those of a brilliant and
showy type. He held during the great part of his life various
offices in his town and county. He was one of the committee of
safety during the Revolutionary W'ar; and for 15 years was one
of the Judges of the Court of Common Pleas for Barnstable
County. He was also a member of the conventions for forming
and adopting the State and Federal Constitution. His gravestone
is thus inscribed : "To the memory of the Hon. David Thacher,
Esq., who having served his generation in many important public
stations with honor and fidelity, died November 9th, 1801, aged
seventy-two years. By a constant practice of social virtues, he
rendered himself greatly beloved and respected in the various walks
of domestic life- Reader, wouldst thou be honored in life and
lamented in death, go and do likewise. Also erected to the memory
of Mrs. Abigail Thacher, widow of the Hon. David Thacher, Esq.,
who died April 25th, 1803, aged seventy-six years. She was greatly
esteemed as a Christian and a friend."

in the Military Service ; he was a Tavern Keeper. He died
at Yarmouth, Mass., January 19th, 1802, and was buried
there in old cemetery {Freeman's Cape Cod, Vol. H., pp.
229-30, says that he died January 19th, 1809, aged 69; and so
also does Alden's Epitaphs, Vol. L, p. 127; but as he was
born in 1732-3 and died aged 69, he must have died in 1802 ;
therefore Freeman and Alden are incorrect). His tombstone
inscription does not appear in Gravestone Records of Yar-
mouth, Mass., prepared by Thomas W. Thacher and Stanley
W. Smith, and published in 1906 by the Mass. Society, M.
F. D., and therefore I presume it was destroyed between the
compilation of Alden's Epitaphs and the year 1906. He mar-

There is a remarkable coincidence existing between the records
of Deacon Josiah' Thacher and that of his uncle Deacon Josiah*
Thacher (No. 38). The latter was born April 26th. 1667, and
died May 12th, 1701 (or 1702) ; the former was born i'"ebruary
2nd, 1732-3, and died January 19th, 1802; they were both deacons
in the same church, and they both had for a wife a Mary Hedge.
This coincidence has heretofore puzzled antiquarians and has caused
a confusion of the two Josiahs.
Deacon'^ Josiah Thacher was chosen as a deacon, May 18th,
1801. His tavern stood upon the site of the Congregational par-
sonage in Yarmouth. According to a paper written by his grand-
son, Prentiss' Thacher, he was married in 1758.
From Aldcn's Epitaphs we obtain the following inscription
taken from the gravestone of Deacon Josiah' Thacher, and those
of his two (2) wives. The gravestone of Deacon Josiah'^ Thacher
has since the compilation of Alden's Epitaphs, been broken, and at
last accounts (according to George Winslow Thacher of Yarmouth-
port, Mass.) was lying on the ground and likely at any time to
disappear; and from the fact that the printed records of the Old
Burying Ground at Yarmouth makes no mention of said stone, it
would appear that it had now vanished.
"In memory of Deacon Josiah Thacher, who died January 19th,
1809, in his 69th year."
"Look down upon the sacred spot and see
What death can do for you as well as me ; »
Sweet bosom friend, your falling sand is nigh.
Children, prepare, 'tis God that calls on high.
Neighbors and friends alike must be the same,
Prepare for death in time, for God doth reign."
The date 1809 was copied incorrectly by Alden. or else it
was recorded incorrectly on the gravestone, as he was bom in
1732-3 and died in 1802, aged 6g.
"In memory of Mrs. Desire Thacher, wife of Deacon Josiah
Thacher, who died February 27th. 1788. in the 52nd year of her
age. Also in memory of Mrs. Mary Thacher, his last wife, and
formerly widow of Deacon Josiah Hedge. She died January 15th,
181 1, aged years."

igi2.] The Doughty Fa7nily of Long Island. 273
THE DOUGHTY FAMILY OF LONG ISLAND.
By Ethan Allen Doty.
In offering this record of the descendants of Rev. Francis
Doughty, the emigrant to Taunton, Mass., and Maspeth, Long
Island, I am aware that it is by no means complete, but it fur-
nishes a foundation and a frame work on which any one inter-
ested may build a more satisfactory record.
The items here given were collected while I was gathering
material for "The Doty— Doten Family in America." Members
of both the Doty and Doughty families frequently settled in the
same town, and lived neighbors, though seldom intermarrying.
This was notably the case on the north shore of Long Island, in
Westchester Co., Dutchess Co. and Saratoga Co., in New York
State, in New Jersey and in Maine. To keep my Doty records
correct, I was obliged to take these of the Doughtys also.
There were other emigrants of Doughtys besides Rev. Fran-
cis Doughty.
James Doughty was a resident of Plymouth, Mass., and of
Scituate, where he married in 1649 Lydia, daughter of Humphrey
Turner. Also a Thomas Douty born 1620-5, was in Berwick,
Maine, before 1660.
Both of the above families are represented by descendants in,
or emigrated from Maine.
Still another family largely represented in lower and Western
New Jersey, claim descent from an Edward Doughty who came
as a preceptor to the children of " Lady Moody" and marrying
Millicent, perhaps the daughter of James and Rosana De Kraft,
became the ancestor of a numerous family in New Jersey, Vir-
ginia and Ohio.
Of these I have but scattering records, but these are at the
service of any persons interested.
I. Rev. Francis Doughty was the son of a Bristol, (England)
Alderman. He had been Vicar of Sodbury, Gloucester, Eng.
(See English Colonization of America, by Edward D. Neill, Lon-
don, 1871.)

queath to my daughter Elizabeth (excepting what I have passed
by my deed, bearing date 15th May 1634 made to certain uses to
Humfrey Hooke, Alderman of the City of Bristol, Thomas
Lloyd of the same, Adatn Baynham of Yate gent, and William
Maye of Cherefield gent, this excepted) and I make my daughter
Elizabeth my whole and sole executrix etc."
One of the witnesses was Fr. Doughtie, minister.
Mr. Waters adds:
"The above will and the deed to Humphrey Hooke and others,
to which it refers, gave rise to a great contention in New Eng-
land, as appears from Lechford's Note Book, pp. 133-5, i37. '7i-3
and 256 (I refer to the pages of the printed book) Elizabeth
Doughtie, the daughter and sole executrix of the above testator,
became the wife of William Cole in the parish of Chew Magna, in
the County of Somerset, gentleman (as he calls himself in a bill
of complaint to the Gov., Council and Assistants of the Jurisdic-
tion of Massachusetts Bay) and brother of John Cole of Farring-
ton, Somerset, Yeoman, who made a deposition about Hempsteed
Farm in 1639. William and Elizabeth Cole were then in New
England, as was also her brother Francis Doughty, who at that
time called himself a planter of Dorchester in New England. He
was called a clerk in the bill of complaint by William Cole and
his wife, and seems to have been a minister at Taunton, Mass.,
and afterwards to have removed to Long Island."
About 1637 Rev. Francis Doughty, with others, purchased
from the Plymouth Colony a tract of land at Taunton, Mass. He
is reported to have come to Massachusetts 1639, and settled at
Taunton, preaching there, but having some difficulties with the
people he removed to Maspeth (now Newtown) on Long Island
in New York State where we find him 1642. The Court Records
and Acts of Legislature of Massachusetts Colony show that he
had a lawsuit with his sister Elizabeth, wife of William Cole, ex-
tending through many years.
In Magazine of Amer. History, Jan., 1885, is an article on
" Puritanism in New York" by Rev. Chas. A. Briggs, D.D., in
which occurs "The Third Puritan minister (in State of N. Y.)
was Francis Doughty. He had probably been Vicar of Sodbury,
Gloucester, England, where he was silenced for Nonconformity.
He emigrated to Taunton, Mass., 1637." (Then follows an ac-
count of his differences there with the Church leading to his ex-
pulsion with his wife and child. This is taken from Thomas
Lecliford, Plain Dealing. 1642, p. 40.) Doughty secured the con-
veyance of Mespat (near Newtown), L. I., with the view of estab-
lishing a Presbyterian colony there. The settlement was begun
in 1642, but the Indian War broke up the colony in 1643, and the
minister and flock went to Manhattan Island for shelter during
the war. He became the first Puritan, and, indeed, Presbyterian
minister in New York City. He ministered here from 1643 to
1648 and was supported by voluntary contributions from the
Puritans and Dutch of the city. He also preached at Flushing
for a while.

" Owing to the failure of the colony Govs. Kieft and Stuy vesant
sought to recover the claime upon Mespat, but Doughty declined
to restore it. He was at last glad to escape from the wrath of
Stuyvesant and fled to Maryland, where he preached to the Puri-
tans for many years."
An intelligent correspondent of the Brooklyn (New York)
Daily EagU, signing himself an " Old Brooklynite," in the issue
of June 7th, 1891, says:
" The first notice of Rev. Francis Doughty is found in the an-
nals of Taunton and reads as follows:
[' Cohannet, alias Taunton, is in Plymouth patent. There is
a church gathered there of late, and some ten or twenty of the
church, the rest excluded. Master Hooke, pastor; Master Street,
teacher. One Master Doughty (Rev. Francis) opposed the
gathering of the church there, alleging that according to the cov-
enant of Abraham all men's children that were of baptized
parents, and so Abraham's children, ought to be baptized, and so
spake in public, or to that effect, which led to a disturbance, and
the ministers spake to the magistrate to order him out, the
magistrate commanded the constable who dragged Master
Doughty out of the assembly.']
" But for this disagreeable incident the Doughty family proba-
bly would never have played their part in the history of Brook-
lyn. Much excitement followed the church wrangle, and it re-
sulted in about one hundred families leaving the Cohannet
colony and following the fortunes of Mr. DouglUy. By this it
was determined to leave the English colonies and apply to the
Dutch for a grant of land upon which they could settle and enjoy
that freedom of conscience which the straight laced Puritans de-
manded for themselves, but were unwilling to accord to anyone
else. With his wife and children Doughty preceded to the Island
of Aquetneck, the present site of the city of Newport, R. I.,
where his friends soon joined him. A regular association was
organized and Mr. Doughty sent to New York to interview Gov-
ernor Kieft. So successful was this visit that the Dutch authori-
ties immediately granted Mr. Doughty a tract of land of 13,332
acres at Mespat, which embraced nearly the whole of Nevi'town,
Maspeth and a part of Flushing. Here the Doughtyites settled
in the year 1642, and from their efforts a successful colony was
soon established. Indeed, its success was so great that it excited
the jealousy of Kieft, as will presently be seen. The Doughty
patent is recorded in the Secretary of State's office at Albany,
book of patents, C. G., p. 49. It bears date March 28, 1642. Mr.
Doughty seems to have been a chronic objector and a man of
most decided opinions. Preaching to his flock weekly he took
occasion to severely criticise certain acts of Governor Kieft's,
and trouble was the result. The director and Council of the
New Amsterdam colony in April, 1647, rescinded the Doughty
patents, dividing the property among members of the association,
leaving Mr. Doughty only his bouwery and the lands he had in
possession. The Doughty bouwery occupied the land on the east
of Flushing Bay, now known as Stevens' Point.
276 The Doughty Family of Long Island. [July.
"To the decision of Kieft Mr. Doughty strongly objected, re-
garding it as not only unjust, but in direct violation of his patent,
therefore he appealed from the sentence, which offended Kieft
who had previously cut off the right of appeal to the courts of
Holland, and, telling Doughty that his judgment was final and
absolute, the despotic governor fined the defenseless clergyman
$10 and locked him up for twenty-four hours in the common jail.
Discouraged at this, Mr. Doughty requested the director-general
of New Netherland 'that as he had lived and done duty a long
time without suitable support and as his land was now confis-
cated' he might be permitted to take ship for the West Indies or
the Netherlands. The request was refused, as the director-gen-
eral had no desire to have his acts laid before the diet. Later
Mr. Doughty was minister at the Flushing church, where he
preached a year for the sum of 600 guilders. He finally departed
for the ' English Virginias' in 1648."
This is one side of the story — Doughty's side.
The coloniar records show the Dutch view of the case to be
different. Without going into this in detail, we will simply state
that the Dutch claimed a debt of 1,100 florins from Mr. Doughty,
which he refused to pay. It was out of this that the trouble
arose. The last notice of this man is found in Dr. O'Callaghan's
Colonial Documents where it reports a commissioner sent from
New York to Maryland colony as saying that during a visit to
Cecil, Lord Baltimore, he met Mr. Doughty at a dinner given by
the Maryland governor and found him " looking much the same"
as when he last saw him in New Amsterdam and very bitter
against the Dutch. After the burning of Mespat village by the
Indians in 1643, Mr. Doughty sought refuge in New Amsterdam
with all his followers. Here they resided for several years, Mr.
Doughty purchasing property just outside the fort. Within the
fort he established an English church and preached regularly to
his flock. Thus the Rev. Francis Doughty was the first preacher
in the English language in New York city — "a fact we never
saw commented on in any history of New York."
From the Calendar of N. Y. Hist. Mss. in the Secretary of
State's Office at Albany, N. Y., Part I of Dutch Mss., we learn
that 1642, March 28, a patent of 6666 (Dutch) acres of land at
Maspeth was issued to Rev. Francis Doughty and his associates,
page 49, vol. G. G.
1645, June 10, Rev. Francis Doughty sued Wm. Gerritson, an
Englishman, for libel consisting of a defamatory song against
plaintiff and his daughter. The defendant pleaded guilty and
was sentenced, &c., page 224, vol. 4.
1646, March 22, Rev. Mr. Doughty appointed a referee.
1647, Feb. 7, Wm. and Richd. Smith vs. Rev. Francis
Doughty. Defendant ordered to declare who are his partners.
Vol. 4, page 283.
Soon after this probably, he removed to Maryland, where his
brother-in-law, William Stone, was Governor. He married
Bridget (?Stone). Children:

Since writing tlie above account of Rev. Francis Doughty,
whose record was mainly obtained from official records in New
York State and in England, I have received this further informa-
tion through Mr. P. G. Burton of Washington, D. C, who for
some time has been interested in the history of the Doughty
family:
Quoting Mr. Burton's letter it is as follows:
" Rev. Francis Doughty went to Northampton County, Virginia,
in 1655 (the year that his son-in-law, Adriaen Vanderdonck died)
and became the Rector of an Episcopal church there. He was
apparently well thought of, and one wealthy and influential
woman (parishioner) directed in her will that he have charge of
the rearing of her children.
Just what took Rev. Francis Doughty to Virginia I do not know,
but I have a theory that the Rev. Samuel Di isius, who was a
minister in New Amsterdam, and who was sent on a special
mission to Virginia in December, 1653, may have had something
to do with the move.
It is known that Drisius, while in Virginia, preached in the
church of which Doughty was later Rector. There is a reference
to the choosing of Doughty in the Northampton County records,
but I have not yet been able to get a copy of it.
In 1658 Doughty married Ann Eaton, a widow with some
property, and shortly after moved into Rappahannock County,
where in 1662 he bought 200 acres of land. (In 1692 Rappahan-
nock County was divided into what are now Essex and Rich-
mond Counties).
For several years Doughty was rector of two parishes, one on
each side of the Rappahannock River.
In the summer of 1668 he had a lengthy "argument" with two
of his parishioners, both prominent in political and social circles.
He refused to allow them to "communicate in the blessed or-
dinance of the Lord's Supper" and they brought charges of non-
conformity and scandalous living, the particular kind of scandal
not being specified.
The matter was before Gov. Berkeley, and referred by him to
the County Commissioners for trial. What decision, if any, was
reached, does not appear in any record that has survived.
In March, 1668-9, Doughty placed his farm in the hands of
trustees for the benefit of his wife during her lifetime, and an-
nounced his intention of departing for "some other Countrey and
Clymate that may prove more favorable to my aged, infirm and
decayed body, than the said Countrey of Virginia wherein I now
reside," his wife, however, being "unwilling to depart the said
Countrey, she finding the same best agreeing with her health,
besides her loathness and unwillingness to bidd farewell to her
most deare and beloved children and to her beloved kindred and
relacons, all or at least most of them, residing in the said Colony
of Virginia, and the neighboring Province of Maryland."

278 The Doughty Family of Long Island. [July,
On the same day, Rev. Francis Doughty deeded the reversion
of this property to his son Enoch Doughty, who seems to have
heretofore escaped the eye of the historian.
Enoch Doughty died in Virginia between 1675 ^nd 1677 and
willed his property to his children (not named) with instructions
to his brother Francis, who was one of the executors, to sell all
his property, because he wanted his children to move out of the
country.
A memorandum attached to the will seems to show that in
1677 Francis Doughty, Jr., was in England, and among other
things had some tobacco to sell for joint account of himself and
his brother Enoch.
I have found a record of Enoch Doughty in Maryland as early
as Sept., 1658. He had then a wife, Mary, and a daughter, Joy.
Joy Doughty was living in 1668, but I have found no record of
the names of the other children.
After the 18 of March, 1668-9, I fi"*^ ^lo record of Rev. Francis
Doughty. Whether he went to Long Island and joined his son
Elias, or went back to England, is yet to be learned.
Ann (Eaton) Doughty died in Maryland in the spring of
1683, and as there was quite a contest of her estate, we get a
much better chance to know her family than usual.
Her will left all of her property to her grandchildren by her
first and second husbands, and no mention is made of any
Doughty.
From the legal papers filed in connection with the suit re-
ferred to, and from other facts of record it would seem that her
first husband was a brother of the wife of Gov. William Stone of
Maryland.
It has been known for a longtime that the will of Gov. Stone
mentions "brother-in-law, Francis Doughty," and different
writers have explained the connection in different ways.
It is often stated that the wife of Rev. Francis Doughty was
Bridget Stone, usually with a question mark, as if the writer had
grave doubts as to the accuracy of his statement.
Others have stated that Rev. Francis Doughty's sister married
Gov. Stone."
It will be noted that in this statement Mr. Burton says that he
has found a record in Maryland of Enoch Doughty as early as
September, 1658, and that he then had a wife Mary and a daugh-
ter Joy. Now, as Francis Doughty left Long Island in 1648 and
that there was no reference whatever to any son Enoch, it is dif-
ficult to explain how ten years later there could be a married son
with children living in Maryland. It would seem as though
there must be some other explanation of this, and this I leave
for future investigation.
2. Mary Doughty (daughter of Rev. Francis Doughty and
Bridget, his wife). Married first at the Dutch Church in New
York City, Oct. 22, 1645, Dr. Adrien Van Der Donck; he was
known as the Younkers Van der Donck. They lived on the
Hudson River, a few miles above New York City, at a place now
igi2.] The Doughty Family of Long Island. 2/0
known as Yonkers, and which took its name from him. After his
death she married Hugh O'Neale of Maryland, and removed
there.
3. Francis Doughty (zd above) remained at Maspeth, or New-
town, where he married in 1660 the widow of Rev. John Moore.
1661, Feb. 18, he was ordered to deliver up the house of Rev.
John Moore to the Schoolmaster Richard Mills. Child:
5 i. Margariet.
1661, March 9, Margariet, daughter of Franciscus Doten was
baptized in the Dutch Church, New York City. And after this I
find no further trace of this branch.
4. Elias Doughty (son of Rev. Francis Doughty and Bridget,
his wife), born in England about 1632; married in Flushing,
Queens County, New York, about 165S-60, Sarah .
He first appears on record at Flushing in 1666. From the
"Calendar of New York Historical Mss., Part 2, English," in
Secretary of State's Office, Documentary History of New York,
Volume 3, pages 91-99. 1673, July 28; Order issued to Lieutenant
Willet and Cornet Doughty to send out scouts, and the next day,

In the records of Twentieth Street, New York City, Friends
Meeting, it appears, Sarah Doughty, of Flushing, an Antient
widow, died 1726.
In records at Hemstead occur the names of Elias and wife
Sarah Doughty, 1668-1675.
It appears from above that Elias Doughty and Sarah his wife
lived at Flushing and that he was a prominent, prosperous and
highly respected resident; that he possessed considerable prop-
erty there and in that vicinity. He probably died about 1690.
She died 1726. She and her children were members of the
Friends Meeting.

ried probably at Jamaica, Queens County, New York, about 1695,
Amy Whitehead, born in Flushing, Queens County, New York,
August 17, 1679 (daughter of Daniel Whitehead).
Jacob Doughty lived at Cow Neck, Queens County, New
York. He and his wife were Friends and members of the Cow
Neck Meeting. On the records of the Cow Neck Meeting, now
in 20th Street, New York Friends' Meeting, are entered the
igi2.] The Dovghty Family of Long Island. 283
births of their children, and also the following entry: "Friends'
Meeting was held at Jacob Doughty's on Cow Neck from 1703
till 1708 when he having removed away, Meeting was afterwards
held at Ri. Cornwall's." He removed to Flushing, where he lived
till 1713, when he removed with his family to Burlington County,
New Jersey, in which vicinity he subsequently lived.
A deed of Daniel Whitehead is recorded at Jamaica, New
York, dated April 28, 1699, wherein he gives a farm to his son-in-
law Jacob Doughty and his daughter. Amy, wife of said Jacob.
The farm was in town of Hempstead and probably was the farm
on Cow Neck.
1716. Jacob Doughty was member of Assembly for Burling-
ton Co., New Jersey.
By deeds on record at Flemington, New Jersey, it appears
that Jacob Doughty of Bethlehem, Hunterden County, New
Jersey, conveyed March 20, 1733, to Samuel Large, Samuel Wil-
son, John Stevenson, Edward Rockhill, and Joseph King, for the
nominal sum of forty shillings a part of the land he bought 1729
(which was bounded by land in possession of Daniel Doughty),
and which they conveyed the next day to the Monthly Meeting

7th day of 2nd month, called April, 1742, and proved on the 2 of
August, of same year. In it she gives legacies to her children
and grandchildren.
The following list of their children is furnished by Mr.
Barclay White of Mount Holly, New Jersey, who is a lineal de-

is now in his possessian.
The dates being given in " olde style" allowance must be
made as follows: The year began the 25th March, which is called
the first month, April the second month, and so on to the twelfth

EARLY NEW YORK CHURCH RECORDS.
By Royden W. Vosburgh, of the Publication Committee.
Since the announcement made in the April issue of the Record, satis-
factory progress has been made in the work of securing and transcribing early
church records in Columbia County. A delay in completing the translation
and comparison of the Taghkanick (now West Copake) church record was
caused by the sudden death of Mr. Walter K. Griffin, on April 17th, to whom,
by his energy and unfailing patience this Society is indebted for the revival of
interest in collecting church records. The greater part of the Dutch in the
Taghkanick record was translated by Mr. Griffin, and he had finished about
one-third of the comparison and checking. I have completed this work and
288 Early New Yo7-k Church Records. [July,
have prepared the introduction, with notes of criticism. The editorial matter
and translation of the Churchtown record, by the courtesy of the Holland So-
ciety of New York, was undertaken by Mr. L. P. de Boer, their Librarian.
Through the mterest and assistance of the church authorities, and as the
result of a trip through Columbia County in the early part of May, we have
obtained for the Society for the purpose of copying and translating, the records
of the Lutheran churches at Germantown and Manorton (Tar Bush). The
record of the Lutheran Church at Ghent has been examined, and with the ex-
ception of the church at Ancram, I believe that this completes the early
Lutheran records in Columbia County, but any additional information will be
gratefully received. A copy of the record of the Hillsdale (Nobletown) Re-
formed Dutch Church, also known as the Krum Church, recently made by the
Holland Society, may also be safely said to complete the work of copying, so
far as it relates to the churches of the Reformed Dutch denomination in that
county. While some of the records heretofore copied, from fifteen to twenty-
five years ago, have been but partially and imperfectly made, it has been
thought wise to leave Columbia County for the present, and to turn to other
fields, where no copies have been made and where the originals are in danger
of destruction.
Accordingly, I have made a preliminary investigation in the Mohawk
valley, in the Counties of Montgomery, Fulton and Herkimer. The following
towns were visited: Broadalbin, Mayfield, Johnstown, Fonda, Root, Minden.St.
Johnsville, Little Falls, Manheim, Mohawk and Herkimer. About ten church
records were examined. The field is a large one, and on account of the large
territory covered, a thorough examination in any one locality was impossible.
The object of the preliminary investigation was to get a general idea of the
material at hand and to select a point for a more extended and thorough ex-
amination, to be commenced in the fall of this year. While a few of the
earliest church records have already been copied, it is certain that many
records exist, commencing shortly after the revolutionary period, that have
never before been brought to light. The earliest uncopied record that came
to my notice commences in 1763, and its immediate preservation is a matter of
urgent necessity. With the limited means that this Society has at its disposal
for this purpose, the work must of course be accomplished only very slowly.
The starting point will be to some extent influenced by the degree of interest
and co-operation manifested by the church authorities. It is hoped to copy all
the records in a given locality before leaving it, but if this plan is not feasible
the records already promised by the church authorities will be copied first.
Reference is made to the Official Announcement in the April issue of the
Record, and the church authorities are urged to avail themselves of this op-
portunity of preserving for all time the records of our fore-fathers.
I am indebted among others, to members of the Herkimer Historical
Society, to County officials and to the local press for valuable assistance and
hearty co-operation in my investigation. A more detailed description of the
records secured will be given hereafter, and when the work of copying and
translating is under way. Suffice it to say for the present, that the Society
wishes it to be known that the Mohawk valley and the adjacent territory is its
next field for investigation, and that it is hoped to continue the work there
until the field is exhausted. The church authorities should remember that a
copy and translation, such as the Society is prepared to give them, is one that
could not ordinarily be obtained without considerable expense.

QUERIES.
Brinkerhoff— In Vols. 37-38 of Record it is stated that Joris Brincker-
ho£E married Annetie, daughter of Tenuis Jans Coevers who died June 11, 1750,
and had Hans, Lucas, Marrits, Maritje, Aeltie, Sarah, Annetie. In the Brinck-
erhoff Genealogy, published by Richard Brinkerhoff in 1887, p. 76, it is stated
that the wife of Joris was Annetie, dau. of Teunis Gysbert Bogaert, with the
same date for her death. The children given are: Sarah, Susannah, Abraham,
Teunis, Isaac, Aeltie. Joris, Neeltie, Hendrick, Antie. So far as I can see the
known facts favor the latter statement, but perhaps this has all been worked
out by some one, and if so I should be glad to be set right.
Rapalje — In the Rapalje line as usually given there appears to be a gen-
eration skipped and I have never seen any comment upon this fact, although I
have seen it bridged in an extraordinary way by the insertion of the marriage
of Breckje, daughter of Gaspard Colet de Rapalje to Victor Honorious Janssen.
As given it makes Abram born in 1569 the son of Gaspard Colet born 1505.
Can any one give the missing link ?

Vermilye— Taylor— MONTGO.MERY— William, son of John and Gerritie,
or Charity (Dyckman) Vermilye, who d. 1822, aged about 74, mar. in 1773,
Maria Brower; 2nd Mary Taylor, who died in 1835, age 81. \Vanied the mar-
riage date of the said Mary Taylor, the name and residence of her father, his
immigrant ancestors to America, and the maiden name of his wife. Similar facts
are also desired for Mary Montgomery, who married William W. Vermilye, son
of William and Mary (Taylor) Vermilye, about 1800. William and Mary
(Taylor) Vermilye, Wm. W. and Mary (Montgomery) Vermilye were all
originally interred in the little burial plot at Kingsbridge. When, and to
what place, were they removed ?
Claessen — Valencyn or Valentine Claessen, from Transylvania, early at
Harlem, N. Y., later at Fordham, married in 1662, as per the N. Y. Dutch Ch.
Rec, Marritie Jacobs from Beest, Gelderland. Riker says he won his laurels in
an expedition to Esopus, 1660, and that he was ancestor of the Westchester
Valentine family. Wanted the proof of his military service, and of his being

BOOK NOTICES.
Editorial Note:— The New York Genealogical and Biographical Society solicits as
donations to its Library all newly published works on Genealogy, History and Biography, as well
as all works on Town, County and State History, or works embodying information regarding the
Vital Records of any and all localities. It also solicits the donation to the manuscript collections
of its library any and all manuscript compilations which bear upon the above mentioned topics.
In consideration of such donations the works so presented to the Society will be at once
placed upon the shelves of its library and will be reviewed in the next subsequent issue of The
New Vork GiiNKALOGiCAL AND HiOGRAPHicAL RECORD, each donation of such ciiaracter,
whether in printed or manuscript form, will be reviewed under the head of "Book Notices" and
a copy of The Rkcord containing the review will be sent to the donor.
The Society does not solicit donations of publications or manuscripts on topics foreign to
the above mentioned subjects, as its library is specialized and cannot accommodate material
which does not bear directly upon its recognized sphere of usefulness.
Donations for review in the January issue of The Record should be delivered to the
Society before December ist of the previous year; for the April issue, before March ist; for the
July issue before June ist; and for the October issue, before September ist.
All donations will be generously reviewed with a view of calling the attention of the public
to their good points; but. while generous, the reviews will contain such proper criticism as the
interest of the genealogical student would expect from the editorial staff 01 The Record.
The "Book Notices" of The Record are carefully read by all librarians as well as
genealogical students, and the review of a work in The Record is equivalent to a special
advertisement of such work.
Letters of transmittal of donations of such works should embody the price of the work
donated and the name and address of the person from whom it can be purchased.

Numerous illustrations.
The carefully prepared index to individuals contains seven thousand
seven hundred and thirty-nine names. The volume contains a short account
of the occupation of the town by the Indians ; Indian Legends, and a graphic
account of the Battle of Strickland Plains at Cos Cob in 1644 between the
Indians and the combined forces of the English and Dutch ; descriptive ac-
counts of the early settlers ; early tax lists ; alphabetical list of landowners
prior to 1752 ; alphabetically arranged muster rolls of the officers and men who
served in King George's War; French and Indian War ; Revolutionary War ;
War of 1812; Mexican War; Civil War; and the Spanish-American War.
Incidents of the early settlers, as also of the Revolutionary War, and as Green-
wich was during that war debatable territory, there are narrated many stirring
accounts of exciting escapes of the patriots from the tories and cowboys, who
frequented the town. Tyron's raid and General Putnam's escapes are pre-

sented in a new light and some of the traditions relating thereto are very much
shattered.
This work as a town history is representative in character and embodies
within its limits all of the information so much desired by genealogical
searchers. It is to be hoped that others contemplating the publication of town
histories may use it as an example of painstaking and exhaustive work. All
libraries should have it on their shelves.
Archives of the General Convention (of the Protestant Episcopal
Church in U. S. A.). Edited, by order of the Commission on Archives, by
Arthur Lowndes, D. D.. Vol. III. Correspondence of John Henry Hobart,
1802-Sept., 1804, cloth, quarto, pp. 604, including index. Printed at the
Merrymount Press, Boston, by D. B.Updike.
We are pleased to receive these archives. All three volumes are valuable
historically and worthy of the great church the records of which are exemplified
therein. In the present book the correspondence of Bishop Hobart is continued.
An alphabetical index to these letters, a list of annotations and of books re-
ferred to are appended.
The Ancestry and Descendants of Gustavus Beall and Thomas
Hugh Beall. By Josiah H. Shinn of Washington, D. C. Pamphlet, pp. 28.
This publication presents the argument made in October, 191 1, before the
Registrar of the Daughters of the American Revolution by Mr. Shinn, in
order that one of Gustavus Beall's descendants might be eligible thereto.
That the proof was successful makes the genealogy of interest to students.

Index of the Genealogical and Historical Queries and
Answers from the New York Mail and Express, Vol. I. By Miss
Mary E. Sinnott, 1816 South Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia. Cloth, quarto,
pp. 113. Privately printed 1911.
Most genealogical students either knew Mrs. Annie Arnoux Haxtun or had
had communication with her through the department which she conducted
until her death in the above mentioned newspaper. She pasted the clippings
in three large scrapbooks and presented them to the Genealogical Society of
Pennsylvania, in Philadelphia. Miss Sinnott has made a valuable addition to
genealogical lore in making these extracts accessible to the public in this
fashion. The index is printed as Mrs. Haxtun arranged it.
A Century of Achievement, The History of the N. Y. Bible
Society for One Hundred Years. By Rev. Dr. Arthur Lowndes, Vols. I
and II, quarto, pp. 1112, covering the years 1898-1909 inclusive.
These volumes are pleasing accounts of the vicissitudes of the century's life
of this well known and beneficient organization. Volume I is adorned with
portraits of Bishop Hobart, Matthew Clarkson, elected a Manager of the
Society in 1815, the Rev. Henry Hadley Norris of England and the Rev. Dr.
Benjamin I. Haight, 2nd Vice-President. In Volume 11 are found portraits of
Charles Henry Contoit, Rev. John McVickar, Thomas C. Butler, for many
years treasurer and Agent of the Society, and James Pott, who succeeded to
these offices. The work is well performed and is agreeable to the eye. A short
but inclusive index closes the story.

Book Notices. [July,
We agree with the Committee of Publication that these letters are worthy
to be placed in enduring form. The work has been done, too, in a faultless
manner, and the notes, which enrich the text, add very largely to the value of
the volume.
One of the original purchasers of Newtown, Long Island, where he came
in 1656, was John Furman. His ancestors were of Stoke Nayland, Suffolk,
England. Josias, his son, married Sarah Strickland and held some local offices
in Newtown. Samuel, one of their sons, removed to Hopewell Township,
New Jersey, and it was his son Jonathan who became the father of the writer
of these letters, which begin in 1779. They treat the early years of the Re-
public in a vivid, personal way, and we can endorse this quotation from the
foreword of the book: " They show how desperate the struggle was to finance
the armies of the revolting Colonies; they show how conscientious the men
were who assumed this task and what an important factor they were in the
ultimate success of their cause." A few letters by other hands are added to
lend further significance to the circumstances related in the letters themselves.
Sixteenth Annual Report, 191 i, of the American Scenic and
Historic Preservation Society, to the Legislature of the State of New
York. Printed by J. B Lyon Company, State Printers, Albany, N. Y.
This impressive volume is so compendius, so rich in interesting informa-
tion on a multitude of subjects, and so valuable for reference that it confounds
those short-sighted individuals whose province in life seems to be to inveigh
against all organizations which do not just fit into their narrow idea of what is
worth preservation. And withal the reading of the context is interesting in
itself. The record of the work done alone justifies the existence of the
Society. Not only does it include local information but objects having a
world-wide import. The inclusion of biographies of noted Americans makes the
work especially of value to genealogical and historical societies. The volume is
embellished with unusually beautiful views, and taken all in all, every one
concerned in its production is to be commended for the care and thoroughness
displayed in its attractive pages. A voluminous index is fittingly added.
Quartermaster George Colton and his Descendants, 1644-1911.
Compiled by George Woolworth Colton. Printed for private circulation by
John Milton Colton, Philadelphia, 1912. Octavo, cloth, ill., pp. 588.
The above is an admirable genealogy, modern and scientific in every re-
spect. The ancestor was a public spirited and notable citizen of Longmeadow,
Springfield, Massachusetts.
Class of 1870, Yale College, 1870-1911. Quarto, cloth, ill., pp. 403.
Compiled by Lewis Wilder Hicks, Class Secretary. Boston, Thomas Todd
Company.
The Yale blue and the good Yale seal prepare the reviewer for the pleas-
ant task of reading the life stories of the members of Yale, '70. The trail leads
back to the wmd-swept hill of Phillips Andover, where so many of the class
prepared for Yale. The two pictures of each graduate, one taken in college,
and the other late in life, show in turn the features of well-bred boys and
mature gentlemen. These are good faces which we see in this book, pure, in-
tellectual, virile, American. The gamut of human experience is found in
these pages, tantalizing ill-health, early death, mediocrity and brilliant success.
It is in some ways a sad task to read this volume, so many of the boys of '70
have gone before. Honor to the Class of '70 and to its alma mater.
RuGGLES Homesteads. By Henry Stoddard Ruggles. Quarto, cloth,
ill., pp. 12.
The pictures of the homes of members of the Ruggles family range from
" the stately homes of Merrie England," to splendid colonial mansions in
Massachusetts, and include even residences of to-day of a very modern type.
The Autobiography of Thomas Collier Platt. Compiled and
edited by Louis J. Lang. Octavo, cloth, ill., pp. 556.
The memory of Thomas Platt is still fresh in our minds as we read this
autobiography. In his lifetime there were wide divergences in popular judg-
I9I2.] Accessions to tfie Library. 307
ment about him. One man would consider Mr. Piatt as the last word in
political trickery and vileness, while his neighbor would term him a states-
man. Any criticism of Mr. Piatt as self revealed in this book will encounter
the same difference of opinion.
At any rate a few salient facts occur to the reviewer. The book is not
equal in construction to such autobiographies as those of Senator Hoar of
Massachusetts, General Sherman or Grant. It is frankly a compilation.
There is a great deal of material in it which throws a bright light on Senator
Piatt's life, but the material is thrown together too roughly for the finest re-
sults. Yet the prime object of the book is thoroughly accomplished. The life
of the famous political leader is laid bare for the reader without hypocrisy or
pretence. There is your Senator Piatt mirrored to the life.
As to the value of that life we may say that it was sturdy, strong, able,
adroit and successful. Had there been a little more of the moral and ethical
element in it, it would have been great. It is certainly more true to-day than
ever before that a man must be more than able and adroit to be long remem-
bered with affection by the American people. We predict that the next gen-
eration will have to delve deeply into the libraries to find out who Thomas
Collier Piatt was.
QUINDECENNIAL RECORD OF THE CLASS OF 1895, SHEFFIELD
Scientific School of Yale University. Compiled by William Usher
Parsons, Class Secretary. Yale University Press, 1912, octavo, cloth, ill., pp. 237.
In perusing this well-appointed book we realize the task imposed upon
Class Secretaries of this day in getting out these Class Reports. Of the ut-
most interest to the members of the Class, they are not much less so to many
outsiders. This Society welcomes into its library these condensed biographies
of Sheff. '95.
History and Genealogy of the Family of Hurd in the United
States and a Partial History of the New England Families of Heard and Hord,
including a treatise on Nomenclature, Heraldry, and Coat Armor and Ancestry.
By Dena D. Hurd. Quarto, pp. viii x 339. Privately printed. New York, 1910.
The work is made up of four books in one volume, with index, and has
about 150 illustrations.
The Book I, contains a rare Treatise on Nomenclature (the origin of fam-
ily names), dealing with the changes of spelling and the original meaning of
the name; a valuable Treatise on Heraldry and Coat Armor explains fully the
real meaning and significance of Family Crests and Arms, illustrated with
Arms in their original colors.
The Book II is a full and complete History and Genealogy of the Family
of Hurd, the origin of the name, with the Crest and Coat-of-Arms in their origi-
nal colors, with a full explanation of their meaning.
The Book III is a History and Genealogy of the Family of Hord, the ori-
gin and meaning of the name, with the Crest and Coat-of-Arms in the original
colors as in Book II.
The Book IV is a History and Genealogy of the Family of Heard, the
origin of the name, the Family Crest and Coat-of-Arms in the original colors.

of Watts Sherman and Olivia Gillson, born in Utica, N. Y., Sept.
15, 1796; married Dec. 9, 1812. He was born in Reading, Pa.,
April 13, 1783; his father removed to Saratoga, N. Y., and he to
Utica, N. Y., in 1805.
The maternal ancestry is as follows: John Gibson (1757-1818)
married Katherine Bicker; Henry Bicker, born 1722, married
Sophia Heyer; Victor Bicker, Jr., born 1688, married Annatje
Cregier; Victor Bicker, born 1652, married Claasje Blanck; Gerrit
Bicker, born 1629, married Aaltje Lubbertse.
The paternal line descends from Philip Shearman, who came to
Roxbury, Mass., in 1633, a single man, made freeman, 1634,
married Sarah Odding. He was born in Dedham, Eng., it is said,
Feb. 5, 1610. He was among the followers of Ann Hutchinson
and was banished from the Colony, Oct. 2, 1637. The family
emigrated to Rhode Island, bought land from the Indians at
Aquetnet, and government was set up with Coddington for
governor, and Shearman for secretary, this was at Portsmouth, R.I.
Soon after he left the Congregational Church and united with
the Society of Friends. His son, Eber^ Shearman, was born in
Roxbury, 1634; he settled on the west side of Narragansett Bay
at North Kingston. His wife's name was Mary; he died in 1706.
His eldest son was also Eber^ Shearman, married Martha Rem-
mington; they lived at North Kingston. Henry^ Shearman, his
youngest child, was born Jan. 14, 1724, married Anna, daughter
310 William Watts Sherman. [Oct.,
of Dr. Charles Higginbotham in 1747; they resided in South
Kingston. He changed the spelling of the name to Sherman,
other members of the family did the same later. His son Nathaniel,^
born Aug. 15, 1748, m. Lucy, daughter of Rev. WiUiam Tisdale, a
Baptist clergyman. They had two sons: Henry, ^ married Sarah
Mitchell of Hudson, N. Y., and Watts,'' born July 2, 1775, mar-
ried Olivia Gillson, June 12, 1794. These brothers were each in
the ancestry of William Watts Sherman, thus: Henry's youngest
son was Watts' (William Watts' father) and the brother Watts*
had an eldest child, Sarah' Sherman, who married Henry B. Gibson,
Dec. 9, 1812, and their second child Sarah Maria" Gibson, married
Watts' Sherman, above. This man was teller of the Ontario
County Bank, Canandaigua, N. Y., and later cashier of the
Livingston County Bank, Genesee, N. Y. In 1833 he became
cashier of the Herkimer County Bank at Little Falls, N. Y. In
1834 Erastus Corning was president of this bank and moved to
Albany, N. Y., where Corning became president of the Albany
City Bank and Sherman was made cashier. Mr. Sherman was a
democrat and nominated for Alderman in 1845 and '46, but the
whigs were successful in these elections.
In 1851 he came to New York and became a partner in the
firm of Duncan, Sherman & Co., bankers. He lived at 5th avenue,
corner 22d street until he died Feb. 20, 1865, while at the Island

1735-7-9) Daniel Doughty was a Justice of the town of Bethle-
hem, Hunterden County, New Jersey. 1744, he was Member of
Assembly for Hunterden County. 1761, he was Member for

Mary Doughty, (No. 78), born (daughter of Elias Doughty
and Mary Ismond). She died . He married (2) Elizabeth
Doughty. They lived in Brooklyn, New York, where he was a
prominent Attorney and member of the Colonial Assembly
1787. Doughty Street in Brooklyn was named after him and he
lived at the corner of Doughty and Furman Streets.
In the Brooklyn Eagle oi JMne 7, 1891, an "Old Brooklynite"
gives some interesting items:
" In the morning of Brooklyn's existence, when taxes were
low, politicians were not, and population statistics represented
by hundreds instead of hundreds of thousands, no street was
better known than the now neglected byway behind the Eagle's
back door. Time, the destroyer of all things, has reduced the
prominence of Doughty Street, and from one of the thorough-
fares of the village of Breucklyji it has become a byway of the
great city of Brooklyn. But it has occurred to me that a retro-
spective glance at the ancient alley and the family for whom it
was named would not be amiss; a forgotten family so far as the
average newspaper interviewer of the oldest inhabitant is con-
cerned, but a family whose name will endure forever in the
annals of Brooklyn as one of the first, if not the very first of
of English birth.
The Doughty family in America are all the descendants of
one individual, the Rev. Francis Doughty, who emigrated from
England and settled at Taunton, Mass., about the year 1633,
which places him among the earliest of the Puritan fathers fol-
lowing in the footsteps of the Mayflower pioneers. The Brooklyn
Doughty family are the descendants of Elias, the second son of
the Rev. Francis Doughty. Their first appearance in this city is
believed to have been about the year 1690; there is, however, no
absolute proof in the possession of the writer that this date is
correct, although it cannot be more than a decade or so out of
the way.
Doughty street takes its name from Mr. Charles Doughty, for
many years the most prominent attorney in the village of
Brookyn, and a member of the Colonial Assembly as early as
1787. In fact we feel safe in asserting that Mr. Doughty was the
first Brooklynite in the New York Assembly. We find mention
of him in the journal of that body under the date of March 3,
1787, when a petition relative to the coinage of copper for the
State was referred to Mr. Brooks, Mr. Duboys, Mr. Doughty, Mr.
E. Clark and Mr. Taylor. Mr. Doughty's residence was located
on the south corner of Doughty and Furman Streets, directly
opposite the house of Gabriel Furman. It has long since
disappeared and has been so completely forgotten that we
3 1 8 The Doughty Family of Long Island. [Oct.,
never even see it mentioned in local annals. It is believed by
the writer that Mr. Doughty was the owner of the street which
bears his name.
The old Brooklyn records are full of the Doughtys, and yet,
strangely enough, they are never mentioned in newspaper
articles, although equally prominent in their day with the
Bergens, Remsens, Boerums, Johnsons and Rapelyes. The rea-
sons for this are easily explained. The Doughtys were never a
popular family. Tall and stout, with red hair and large features,
the men of this race have ever been noted for hard headed ob-
stinacy, great self confidence, large intelligence and a disposition
to express themselves freely at all times, in season and out. An-
other personal peculiaritj^ of the family is in their walk. The
Doughtys never bend their knee, but always walk stiff legged,
like a pacing horse. No criminal or betrayer of trusts, public or
private, has ever been known to bear the name of Doughty,
which, let it be understood, has no connection whatever with the
English ' Doty' or the Irish ' Dougherty' or ' Doherty.' As
Doughty is spelled now so it has been spelled continuously since
the days of Henry VIII. Of Charles Doughty, for whom the
street was named, it is stated that he was about 85 when he died,
previous to 1820, and that he used to often tell how, when a
young man, he had been told by old people that they recollected
when an Indian squaw waded from Governor's Island to Long
Island with her papoose."
He died aged 85 years, probably about 1813. Children by

"Why should we fear the hour of death ?
Since life is but a span,
By lengthening out our feeble breath
We're more involved in sin.

Submissively to God,
In hopes to meet a Heavenly train
In my Redeemer's blood."

William' Thacher was a deacon in the church ; he was a car- ||
penter and a ship-builder and a man of considerable genius in his
line of work, introducing many improvements in the construction
328 Thacher-Thatcker Genea/ogy. [Oct.,
of salt works and wind-mills. He was on the committee for draw-
ing up the new State Constitution in 1776, he being then of Yar-
mouth. He lived in Yarmouth, at the foot of Church Street, until
about a year after his son Laban'' Thacher removed to South Dart-
mouth. His son Laban bought him a farm in South Dartmouth
and he removed thereto. Davis' Thacher (his grandson) says
that he was a house carpenter, and was chosen a deacon when he
was 80 years old. Mrs. Sally' (Hawes) Cobb, his grand-daughter,
states that he was a deacon in 1819. Antony' Thacher, his grand-
son, states that he built boats of a kind called "Moses" boats; and
that afterwards he built small fishing and coasting vessels. He
owned a sloop of 10 or 15 tons burden that plied between Yarmouth
and Boston ; and also sailed on a sloop of his own building to
Labrador, but was probably not the master thereof. He built many
wind-mills and also built the first light-house on the back of Cape
Cod, it being constructed of wood. He is said to have built the
wind-mill that formerly stood on the northeast corner of the Yar-
mouth Academy and which was subsequently on the hill east of
the Congregational Meeting House- This wind-mill was moved
to near the site of Charles Sears' house. He is said to have been
the inventor of the improvements in salt work implements which
were made use of by the Acme Salt Works. His ship yard was
on Green Hill. Both Mrs. Sally Cobb and Warren' Thacher (his
grand-children) were in possession of miniature portraits of Wil-
liam'* Thacher, which were the only portraits of any of this line of
Thacher's from the first to the fifth generation. Both William"
Thacher and his wife were dismissed from church in Yarmouth to
that of Dartmouth in 1807.

asked for an allowance for transporting the de-
ceased from Milton to Harvard. In 1795 or 1796
he lived on Deer Island, Maine.
Rev. Grindal Rawson succeeded Mr. Smith as pastor at Yar-

of Ware, Mass., May 9th, 1751, and was dismissed of his charge
there June 19th, 1754; he took his dismission from Yarmouth
Church in 1760, "in consequence" — as Mr. Alden said — "of general
dissatisfaction between him and the people, being allowed by a
council to ask for a dissolution of connexion." He is represented
as having been a man of strong mind but very eccentric.

158. Ebenezer' Thacher (Joseph/ Hon. Col. John,- Antony,*
Rev. Peter^), born Yarmouth, February 17th, 1733; died ,
at . From Vol. XV, p. 507, of Mass. Soldiers and Sailors
in Rev. War, I obtain the following record of an Ebenezer
Thatcher, which it is highly probable is the record of this
Ebenezer' Thacher, viz :—
"Thatcher, Ebenezer, Yarmouth, Private, Captain Joshua
Gray's Co., enlisted July loth, 1775; discharged December 31st,
1775, service in defence of sea coast; rolls sworn to in Barnstable
Co. ; also, return of men raised to serve in the Continental Army
from Colonel Nathaniel Freeman's (ist Barnstable County) Regi-
ment, residence Yarmouth, enlisted for town of Yarmouth ; joined
Captain Lamont's Co., Col. Bradford's regiment, enlistment 3 years;
also list of men mustered by Joseph Otis, Muster Master for Barn-
stable Co., dated April 14th, 1777, Capt. James Davis' Co., Col.
Gamaliel Bradford's regiment; mustered April 14, 1777; enlist-
ment 3 years; reputed received State and Continental Bounties;
also Sergeant 5th Co. Col. Bradford's Regt., Continental pay ac-
counts for service from April 14, 1777, to December 31, 1779; also,
Captain John Lamont's Co. Col. Bradford's (12th) Regt., return
(year not given) ; mustered by County and Continental Muster
Masters; joined May ist, 1777; also Captain Haskell's Co., Col.
Bradford's Regiment, Continental Army, pay accounts for service
January 1st, 1780, to April 14, 1780 (see Obed Ilaebe) ; also Cap-
tain Micah Hamlen's Co., Lieut. Col. Hallet's Regt., entered ser-
vice August 14th, 1780, 3 days preceding march; discharged Oc-
tober 31st, 1780; service 2 months, 21 days at Rhode Island; regi-
ment detached from Militia to reinforce Continental Army for 3
months." This record is apparently that of the Ebenezer' Thacher
No. 158; and that it is so is rendered still more probable as a com-
parison of this record with that of Joseph' Thacher (his brother,
No. 160), it is seen that this Ebenezer Thatcher and Joseph'
Thacher both served in the same Company and Regiment (La-
mont's Co. and Bradford's Regt.) and both were from Yarmouth.
The subsequent career of Ebenezer' Thacher I have been unable to
trace; whether he married and left issue, or whether he died single,
is unknown to me.

He was not married.
From Mass. Soldiers and Sailors in War of Rev., Vol. XV, ii
p. 508, we obtain the following record of the Military Service of
Joseph" Thacher, viz : — 1
"Thatcher, Joseph, Yarmouth — Return of men raised to serve f
in Continental Army from Col. Nathaniel Freeman's (ist Barn- '
stable County) regiment, dated Sandwich, June 10, 1777; resi- '
dence Yarmouth ; enlisted for town of Yarmouth ; joined Capt. ',1
Lamont's Co., Col. Bradford's regt., enlistment 3 years ; also pri-
vate, 5th Co., Col. Bradford's Regt. ; Continental Army pay ac- J
counts for service from May 16, 1777, to October i6th, 1778; (Kj
residence Yarmouth; credited to town of Yarmouth; reputed de- "'
ceased ; also Captain John Lamont's Co., Col. Gamaliel Bradford's
(i2th) regiment; subsistence allowed from date of enlistment,
May 12, 1777, to May 27, 1777; credited with 15 days' allowance;
also, same Co. and Regt.; return (year not given); mustered by
County and Continental Muster Masters; joined June 26th, 1777; ',
reported sick at Kings Ferry."
From an analysis of above record it would seem that the date ^
of his death was either on or subsequent to October i6th, 1778, as ■
he was allowed pay up to that date.

daughter. Not in Thacher line, viz.:
I. Temperance, born March 13th, 1732-3; died

The intention of marriage of Bethiah Rowland to Samuel
Davis was published at Bristol, June 26th, 1724, but I have found
no record of the marriage itself. The question naturally arises in
view of the above record, what Bethiah Howland was this? There
were at this time in Bristol but two (2) Bethiah Rowlands, viz.:
Bethiah* (Thacher) Rowland (No. 36), widow of Jabez° Row-
land, son of John,' and the above Bethiah^ Plowland (Jabez* and
Patience (Stafford) Howland). Bethiah* (Thacher) Rowland
died at Bristol, R. I., December 19th, 1725, and it is barely pos-
sible that in her widowhood she may have contemplated a second
marriage with Samuel Davis. If such was the case I have no
knowledge of the fact. If this above record was the intention of
marriage of Bethiah'^ Rowland (Jabez*) then it would seem that
the marriage itself was never solemnized, as Samuel Davis died
March 23rd, 1732, and in the meantime she, Bethiah" Thacher, had
on May 19th, 1725, married Nicholas Bragg. This Samuel Davis
was as I make out the brother of Simeon Davis, her second hus-
band, and was born June 30th, 1698, at Bristol.

i86. Mercy' (or Mary-"') Rowland (Jabez^ Howland, Bethiah'

27th, 1704; died , at . She married, first, at Bristol,
R. I., by Rev. James Orem, on November 22nd, 1722 (int.
pub. August 25th, 1722), to Captain George Pearse (Pearce
or Pierce), of whose individual record I am uninformed. In
the record of her marriage to Captain Pearse she is styled
"Mrs." She married, second, at Bristol by the Rev. John
Usher, on July 9th, 1724, to Isaac Martindale of Newport,
R. I., of whose record I am uninformed. Whether any
children were born to Mercy Howland by these two mar-
riages I do not know.
In Vol. VI of Vital Records of R. I., pp. 27 and 53, we have
the record that a Mercy Howland of Bristol and Joseph Tilling-
hast, Jr., of Tiverton, were married at Bristol, August 6th, 1722.
I do not know who this Mercy Howland was unless she was the
above Mercy' Howland, or possibly Yetmercy (Shove) Howland,
widow of Josiah'' Howland. If the record refers to the above
Mercy' Howland, then she married Joseph Tillinghast, Jr., August
6th, 1722, and on August 25th of same year her intention to
marry Captain George Pearse was published and she married
■Captain Pearse on November 22nd of that same year, 1722. This
is not impossible, but highly improbable, except as the result of
some family tragedy or romance with which I am not familiar.
If, however, it refers to the possible marriage of the widow
of Josiah* Howland to Joseph Tillinghast, there is nothing in the
record inconsistent with the record of Josiah* Howland, as he died
at Bristol, February 8th, 1717, and his widow may possibly have
married a second time August 6th, 1722, to Joseph Tillinghast,
Jr. ; however, if she did so I am not positively so informed. I
give the record of this marriage of Mercy Howland and Joseph
Tillinghast and my analysis thereof for what it is worth, with no
pretense of suggestion as to its value.

RAMSEY ANCESTRY OF ENSIGN WILLIAM RAMSEY,
Of the Revolution, who served from Franklin County,
Pa., and his Sister, Jeannet Ramsey, who married
Joseph Eaton, a Revolutionary Soldier in
Franklin County, Pa.
By Orra Eugene Monnette.
Introductory Note. — The purposes of this pamphlet are
two-fold; primarily, to stimulate both interest and research in
the Ramsey ancestry, and secondarily, to correct certain genea-
logical errors, as the writer firmly believes, which have been
stated, re-stated and reiterated for several years.
Coat-of-Arms, Crest and Motto.
Ramsey — Maryland. Captain James Ramsey, Baltimore,
1735. (Descended from Sir James de Ramsey of Dalhousie,
Scotland.)
Argent, an eagle displayed sable, beaked and membered gules.
Crest: A unicorn's head couped argent, armed or.
Motto: Or a et Labor a.
Ramsay — Virginia. William McCreery Ramsey, Esq., of

Scotland.
From A Registry of American Families entitled to Coat Armor,
by William Armstrong Crozier, F.R.S., published at the Taft
and Belknap Galleries, 1904, 40th St., N. Y.
William and Mary College Quarterly, (Vol. 3, p. 168) contains
very positive support of the foregoing, under the title "Coat of
Arms in Virginia:"
"The wax seal attached to the original will of Dr. George
Ramsey, in Norfolk County Clerk's office : An eagle displayed,
beaked and membered; Crest, a unicorn's head couped. These
arms correspond to those in Burke of the Earl of Dalhousie and
the Ramseys of Croughton House, Brackley, Southampton. Dr.
Ramsey, in his will, dated June 22, 1756, devised his property to
his wife Sarah, and to his sons, John and James Ramsey."
Cumberland and Franklin Counties, Pa.
Cumberland County was organized about 1750 and Franklin
County about 1784; Hamilton Township originally in Cumber-
land, then in Franklin County, was created about 1752.
The method of identifying genealogically, any one of a line-
age is usually referable to land ownership and taxation returns,
particularly in the State of Pennsylvania, and these should be
viewed in the light of the fact that not always did the person
live upon the land granted him or returned for taxation, and its
location in one township and county in one year, may have been

relatively diflferent as to township and county in another year, on
account of the changes in township and county lines at different
dates. This is a source of much confusion to one in a genealog-
ical research.
Ensign Willi.\m Ramsey.
His Revolutionary record appears in Pennsylvania Archives,
Fifth Series, Volume VI, page 318, History of Franklin County,
Pennsylvania, (1878-McCauley) pp. 87-96; also the publications
Kittochtiny Historical Society, Volume 1908, page 264, and "U.
S. Census of Pensioners for Revolutionary or Military Service
1841" page 169, in which he is named as a pensioner, age 84, and
on June ist, 1840, resided with "William Ramsey" in Morristown,
Ohio.
His complete military record appears in the records of the
Bureau of Pensions, Department of the Interior, Washington, D.
C, which exhibits his application for pension under date of Jan-
uary 29th, 1834, in which the applicant states that he was "Born
January ist, 1756, in Bucks County, Pa." This must convey
evidence that he belonged to the Bucks County, Pa., Ramsey
family; the same pension record shows his residence at the time
of enlistment as having been Franklin County, Pa. The wife
of Ensign William Ramsey was quite clearly Martha Allen,
daughter of Josiah and Martha Allen of Franklin County, Pa.,
and is so asserted by his descendants without variation. The
deed records in Franklin County show he was granted land in
1794, which he and his wife Martha conveyed in 1800, and which
was located in Hamilton Township.
His Sister, Jeannet Ramsey.
Her husband, Joseph Eaton, likewise served in the Revolu-
tion, (Pennsylvania Archives, Second Series, Volume X, Pages
15 and 345; McCauley's History, Franklin County, Pa., (ante),
and many other authorities,) and likewise received a pension
therefor. The pension records show that he was born in 1756,
and that his wife Jeannet was "59 years old in 1829," hence born
in 1769-70.
That, Ensign William Ramsey and Jeannet Ramsey were
brother and sister is, from family records, beyond dispute. It is
very probably beyond question, also, that they had, at least,
brothers, John, Thomas, and Benjamin, and a sister Margaret,
who married a Henry, and that in all probability there was an-
other brother Robert Ramsey. Benjamin is buried at Washing-
ton, Pa., and his monument recites that he was born in Cumber-
land, Pa., in 1755, which is undoubtedly erroneous.
March 3, 1789, Thomas, Benjamin, John and William Ramsey
each received warrants for one hundred acres of land in Hamil-
ton Township, Franklin County, Pa. Robert Ramsey was earlier
a land owner there.
Genealogical Errors.
It was originally asserted that the parents of Ensign William
Ramsey were William Ramsey and his wife Martha Allen, —
clearly a confusion of generations.

390 Ramsey Ancestry of Ensign William Ramsey. [Oct.,
This assertion was formerly repeated until it became an
accepted fact, and really has little or no foundation. It is true
that as early as 1751* a William Ramsey owned land in what is
now Hamilton Township, Franklin County, Pa., and, also in
Deed Records 1738- 1744 there was a transfer of land "at
Dobbins Spring" along the Conococheague Creek, three miles
from Mercersburg, Pa., where one " Robert Ramsey " figures, and
on the back of the record is the notation of " William Ramsey "
as being the one who handed this deed of Robert Ramsey to the
purchaser. The location of Dobbins Spring is eight miles south-
west of the locality of the Hamilton Township Ramseys.
It has been asserted and alleged that William Ramsey died in
1782 leaving a will naming his wife Martha, and the children in-
dicated above, but no such will is of record in any of the counties
under consideration. A William Ramsey with a wife Martha did
leave a will of record in York County showing he had lived in
Hamilton Ban Township, then York, now Adams County, in 17 77, in
which he names only a son, Reynold Ramsey, and grandchildren.
Bucks County Family.
Davis' History, the Pennsylvania Archives and the Bucks
County Deed and Will Records are authority here.
Further, a genealogical correspondent, who has compiled one
of the Ramsey lineages, states that James Ramsey was born in
Edinburg, Scotland, in 1692, settled in Bucks County in 1730; that
he had a son James, born 1732, who died in York County, Pa., 1757,
and he had in turn a son James and daughter Mary. This is the
"President Harrison Lineage," published in 1893. {^The An-
cestry of Benjamin Harrison, etc., by Keith.)
There are practically no evidences against the origin of the
Ramsey Family in Bucks County, or that it originated colonially
in any other Pennsylvania County; hence, gathering together all
of the proofs offered by the County Records and adjusting and
harmonizing the various authorities as far as possible, it seems
quite probable that the first Ramsey to emigrate to America,
and who settled in Bucks County, was William' Ramsey, and
that the following is the correct lineage:
Lineage
Ramsey: Scotch-Irish ancestry.
An Eaton Family genealogist, writing of the ancestry of
Jeannet Ramsey Eaton (post), says:
" Descendant of William Ramsey, a friend of Robert Bruce by
whose side he fought throughout the War of Independence, and
was one of the nobles who subscribed the celebrated memorial
to the Pope in 1320, vindicating the rights and liberties of their
country. Like other of the great " Scottish families, the Ram-
seys settled in Scotland during the reign of David I ."
An Alexander Ramsey, writing from his country home, " Dal-
housie", near Elgin, Scotland in 1904, claimed that the name was
* In "History of Franklin County" (1887) compiled by Warner, Beers &
Co., Page 153 in a List of Taxables of Antrim Township for 1751-2 appear the
names of both William and James Ramsey.
I9I2.] Ramsey Ancestry of Ensign William Ramsey. 301
originally, " De Ramesey", and having a possible descent from
the Egyptian Pharoahs, i. e., from Ra-me-sis, not necessarily a
remote possibility. It at least accounts for the origin of the
name.
Elgin is in Morayshire County and the first of the name to
settle there was a Farrier from Forfarshire, which is clearly the
ancestral seat. The head of the clan was the Earl of Dalhousie,
whose family name was Ramsey.
It is unquestionable that the first Ramsey who came to Scot-
land held property in Huntingdonshire, from which he took the
name of De Ramesey. That property was part of the estate be-
longing to the Honour of Huntington, which was in possession
of David, Earl of Huntingdon, afterward David First of Scot-
land. De Ramesey came to Scotland in the train of the Earl of
Huntingdon, but retained his designation from his English
estate.
By heritage and in temperament, the Ramseys were and are
nobly proud and aristocratic, and never have yielded wholly to
democratic influences, nevertheless, possessed in their personal-
ities of splendid characteristics and religious preferments.
A descendent of the first John' Ramsey, son of William',
copied the following from his tombstone in Montgomery County,
Pennsylvania:
"Ye who survey with attentive eye
This tomb where Ramsey's ashes lie
His worth through various life attend,
His virtues learn and mourn his end.
He's gone from all afflictions here
To reign in life eternal there ."
Commencing soon after the year of 1700, there was a large
Scotch-Irish emigration to Pennsylvania. Among them came
William Ramsey with a large family to settle in Bucks County.
He was of the lineage of Sir James de Ramsey of Dalhousie,
Scotland. As some of the Pennsylvania Ramseys possess trad-
itions of Ireland locations, he may have likewise lived there.
The first records of any Ramseys in Bucks County are:
Thomas Ramsey, who died intestate in 1714, and James Ramsey,
who died intestate in 1720. The more prominent Ramsej's of
Bucks County was the elder William' Ramsey, son of the emi-
grant, William', who settled in Warwick Township before 1741; he
served as a colonial soldier, 1747 and owned land there and in
Warminster Township, and very probably was the William
Ramsey who with his brother, Robert, owned land in Cumber-
land County, near Dobbin's Spring, 1738-1744. He m. (i) Jane
or Jeannet Brady, daughter of Robert (?) Brady, and (2) Eleanor
Fairies, widow of Samuel. He was born in 169S, died October
19th, 1787, age 89 years, leaving a will of record. Mrs. Jeanet
Ramsey died February i6th, 1761, age 58 years. They had child-
ren; Robert*, John', Jeannet', Jean', Hugh', William' and Pat-
rick'. He had a sister Jane or Jeannet who married Robert
Mearns who died in 1730, when she married Hugh Huston, and
she died September 17th, 1781, age 82 years.
392 Ramsey Ancestry of Ensign William Ramsey. [Oct.,
Of the first Bucks County emigrant, William' Ramsey's fam-
ily, then were the following:
i. William", b. 1698 d. 1787 (above).
ii. Robert, in Cumberland Valley, Antrim Tp., 1738-47.
iii. Alexander of Bucks County,
iv. James, b. 1692 or 1701, the ancestor of Major James
Ramsey of Ligonier, Penn.
V. Jean, m. Robert Mearns (above).
vi. John, of Montgomery County and who settled in
Cumberland Valley,
vii. Thomas, b. about 17 10, d. 1751, of Bucks County,
viii. And probably others.
Concurrent with the settlement in Warwick Township of the
Elder William" Ramsey, was that of his brother, Thomas'' Ram-
sey in Nockamixon about 1725 or 1730. He married Mary
Darrah Johnston, daughter of another pioneer settler, James
Johnston and wife, Mary, daughter of the Irish Colonist, Thomas
Darrah, who settled first in Montgomery County and then re-
moved to Bedminster Township in Bucks. Thomas" Ramsey
was an extensive landowner and participated actively in local
civic affairs. He died intestate in 1751, his widow, Mary, admin-
istering his estate. The orphan court records (1753) show the
names of their children and years of birth. Mary Ramsey re-
moved to Tinicum Township and died there 1795, leaving a will
naming the same children. Issue:
2 i. Captain William', b. Nov., 1732, d. after 1795, removed
from Bucks and settled in Cumberland, afterwards
Franklin County, Penn. In 1795 he was in North
Carolina.
ii. David, b. Mar., 1735, and in 1795 he was in North Caro-
lina,
iii. Robert, b. May, 1739, and 1795 he was in Bucks County,
iv. Thomas, b. February, 1742, and in 1795 he was in North
Cumberland County, Pa.
V. Samuel, b. February, 1751, and in 1795 he was in Sussex
County, New Jersey,
vi. Perhaps others.
2. Captain William' Ramsey, (Thomas', William'), was a col-
onial soldier, being a captain of the Fourth of the nine associated
Companies of Bucks County, French and Indian War, 1755-1756,
his brother-in-law, John Johnston, being a lieutenant of the
same Company. He m. in Bucks County, Margaret, daughter of
William Allen* of Bensalem Township. Soon after he re-
moved to Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, settling first in
Antrim Township and owning land in Rye Township, concurrent
with his brother, Robert; and later in Hamilton Township, after-
wards included in the present limits of Franklin County.
The records of the U. S. Pension Office show his son. Ensign
William' Ramsey was born in Bucks County in 1756, while the

tombstone at the head of his son Benjamin's grave, states that
the latter was born in Cumberland County in 1755 which may
be erroneous in statement, (see statement, post), so the emigra-
tion westward was about that date, or Benjamin* was born on a
visit to the prospective home place in Cumberland County be-
fore the actual location there.
Mr. Geo. O. Seilhammer, the aged historian and skilled gen-
ealogist of Franklin County, Pennsylvania, wrote several years
ago, as follows:
"On Back Creek, above Brake's Mill, Hamilton Township
were the plantations of William Ramsey, afterwards owned by
his sons William, Thomas, Benjamin, John. This William Ram-
sey's descendents are to be found in Pittsburgh, in Washington
Co., Pa., and in Harrison Co., Ohio. But strenuous efforts were
required on their behalf to identify the old Ramsey homestead;
and so far it has been found impossible to establish their exact
relationship with the old Ramsey family of Bucks County, to
which they undoubtedly belonged. William Ramsey, the eldest son
of William Ramsey, the first settler, was an ensign in active
services in the Revolution. He was a member of the Rocky
Spring Presbyterian Church. * * * I believe that all the Ramsey
families of Franklin County, of which there are three distinct
branches, belong to the same stock."
When his mother, Mary Ramsey, died in Tinicum Township,
Bucks County in 1795, leaving a will, she named this son, Will-
iam", as being in North Carolina, and as he disappears from the
Cumberland and Franklin County records before that date, his
wife had probably died and he had gone to live with his brother,
David', in North Carolina. The record clinching the relationship
is that of a deed in Cumberland County (Vol. i, p. 367) reciting:
Deed to William Ramsey from Mary Ramsey, widow, of Nock-
amixon Township, Bucks County, for land in Rye Township,
Cumberland County, 211 acres, "in consideration of the natural
love and affection she bears to said William Ramsey", dated Oct-
ober 4, 1790.
William^ Ramsey and wife, had issue.
John Ramsey of Washington, Pa., wrote under date of Nov.
i8th, 1907 (then quite old, and possibly now dead) —
"William Ramsey, the first ancestor of whom we have any
knowledge, settled in Hamilton Tp., Franklin Co., Pa. He had
four sons and two daughters: William, Thomas, Benjamin and
John; Jane and Margaret.
William, the first son was born in 1756 and joined the Con-
tinental Army at the age of 16. In 1780, he married Martha
Allan of Chester and in 1800 removed to Washington Co., Pa.,
settling on Pigeon Creek. In 1815, he removed to Morristown,
Ohio, where he died aged 86.
Thomas Ramsey emigrated to Kentucky and we know noth-
ing further of him.
Benjamin Ramsey came to Washington Co., in 1804 and settl-
ed near Washington, where some of his descendents still reside.

John Ramsey came to Washington Co., about the same time
and located near Burgettstown.
Jane married a Mr. Joseph Eaton and Margaret a Mr. Henry.
The William who lived and died in Franklin Co., left a goodly
portion to each of his children.
The family was in religion, Scotch-Presbyterians."
To the foregoing may be added the definite facts:
Ensign William' Ramsey was born January ist, 1756 and died
January ist, 1841. He married August 26th, 1780, "his cousin,"
Martha Allen, born December 25th, 1760, died Septemder 28th,
1837, a daughter of Josiah and Martha Allen of Franklin County,
Pennsylvania.
Benjamin' and John' Ramsey married twin sisters, Mary and
Martha Shields, daughters of Matthew Shields of Franklin
County.
Thomas Ramsey, it has just been learned married Elizabeth
Graham of Franklin County, Pennsylvania, and was located at
Lexington, Kentucky, in 1803.
Jeannet' Ramsey was born about 1769 and died in Guernsey
County, Ohio. She married in 1780 Joseph Eaton of Hamilton
Township, Franklin County, a Revolutionary Soldier, born
March i8th, 1856, died December 15th, 1832, in Guernsey County,
Ohio. He was a son of Joseph Eaton and Katherine McConnell,
daughter of Robert McConnell, a Cumberland County pioneer,
and a grandson of John Eaton and wife, Sarah Armstrong,
daughter of the first Colonel Joseph Armstrong, the old Indian
fighter.
To Mr. R. F. Ramsey of the Pittsburg Gage & Supply Com-
pany, Pittsburg, Pa., more than anyone else, is due the credit of
continuous interest and research in developing the Ramsey
Ancestry.
Recent researches of his give the following as the children, with
their marriages, of William' Ramsey, and his wife, Margaret
Allen, and are probably correct:
i. William' Ramsey, b. January i, 1756, m. August 26,
1780, d. January i, 1841.
Martha Allen, b. December 25, 1760, m. August 26,

As heretofore given, her husband was Joseph Eaton, a
Revolutionary soldier.
The Eaton family was one of the early pioneer families of
Pennsylvania, and the name appears quite frequently in the
early county records.* Several of the name emigrated to America
at an early date, one of whom settled in Connecticut, from whom
the famous General William Eaton was descended ; one of whom
went to Maryland or Virginia, and one of whom settled in Penn-
sylvania. These were the progenitors of large and honorable

correctly (pp. 607 et seg.), as being that of John Eatton (Eaton) who came from
Radnorshire, Wales, to Pennepack, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania, in
1683, with his wife, Joan. However, the compiler has confused two generations
in that her No. 29-2 John Eaton, and No. 30-3 Joseph Eaton (page 627), were
not brothers, but were father and son, the birth dates being wrong, and they
were the ancestors of the Franklin County Eatons.

families. This sketch more particularly concerns the descendant)
Joseph, who with his brother, James, served in the Revolutionary
War. Joseph Eaton, himself, used the spelling " Eatton," which
was probably historically incorrect, and which has never been
adopted by his descendants. He was born in Franklin County,
Pa., March i8th, 1756 and died in Guernsey county, Ohio, Decem-
ber 15th, 1832. The records of Franklin Co. show the ownership
of land by Joseph, James and John Eaton, that they were hardy
pioneers and industrious people, and honored members of the
Old Rocky Spring Presbyterian Church. It was in the Revo-
lutionary War, in behalf of the American Independence, that the
three Eatons exhibited their most patriotic and heroic character.
Joseph Eaton, enlisted in 1775, for one year, under Captain
James Chambers, in Colonel William Thompson's Battalion. In
the Pennsylvania Archives, Volume 10, New Series, Volume 2,
there is some history of this Battalion (to be found in Public or
Historical Libraries) with letters from the officers, and Eatton's
name is in Volume 10, pages 16 and 339. From which it appears
that Captain Chambers' Company were riflemen raised in Cum-
berland, that part now Franklin county. Pa., in June, 1775, and
went to the siege of Boston, arriving there July 7th. On the
new organization of the army in January and February, 1776, the
Battalion became the First Pennsylvania Regiment. He re-
enlisted in February, 1776, for three years in the same company,
at first commanded by Captain James Grier, next by Captain
Thomas Buchanan in the regiment of James Chambers, who had
been promoted to Colonel.
Boston was evacuated by the British, March 17, 1776, and he
must have been ordered to New York City, for he stated that
he was in the battle of Long Island (August 27th, 1776 and New
York City, evacuated September 15th, 1776), in the Battle of
Brandywine, Delaware, (September 11, 1777), and Philadelphia
occupied by the British, September 26th, 1777, and in the Battle
of Germantown, Pa., (October 4th, 1777), at which time, he was
one of the assaulting party that unsuccessfully attacked the
stone "Chew House" in which the almost defeated enemy took
refuge. He must have been, though he does not confirm it, in
winter quarters in the historic camp at Valley Forge, Chester
county. Pa., in 1777-8, from whence the army pursued the British
on their march from Philadelphia across New Jersey, overtook
them at Monmouth, June 28th, 1778 and Eaton was in that battle
on an excessive hot day.
About 1787 Joseph Eaton married Jeanet Ramsey, who was a
daughter of William Ramsey and Margaret Allen. To this
union there were born several children ; among them, William
and John, who emigrated and settled in Morristown, Ohio.
Joseph settled at Mt. Vernon, Ohio. Catharine married a Sharon
and moved to Schuyler county, 111. Two of the children were
twins, Benjamin and his sister Martha. Benjamin was born in
Franklin county, May 2, 1791, and died March 17th, 1863. He
married Mary Coony Scott. They had several children,
among whom, was Eliza Eaton, who married William Houston.
I9I2.] Hints for the Searching of Records. 309
Benjamin's twin sister married Jas. Sharon about 1815. James
was born in 1790, and was a son of William Sharon and Sarah
Smiley. The Sharons were of Scotch- Irish descent, originally
settling in Westmoreland county, Pa., and later moving to Jef-
ferson county, Ohio. James Sharon had a brother William, who
was the father of Senator William Sharon, of Nevada. James
Sharon and Martha Eaton had four children, two sons and two
daughters; (i) Joseph married Eliza Mayholm ; (2) Smiley mar-
ried Loretta Shotwell ; (3) Sarah married Jonas Bernard ; (4)
Jane married James Gill Elrick.
James Gill Elrick was a son of Bernard Elrick and Serena
Gill of Bedford county. Pa., and a grandson of George Elrick,
also a Revolutionary soldier. To him and his wife Jane were
born four children (i) Helen Sharon Elrick, unmarried, and now
living at Columbus, Ohio ; (2) Clara Belle Elrick, unmarried and
now living at Columbus, Ohio ; (3) Anna Eaton Elrick, who
married William Francis Janeway, now deceased, and is living
at Columbus, Ohio, and (4) Mary Elizabeth Elrick, who married
John Mackall, and is living at Barnesville, Ohio.
William Francis Janeway and Anna Eaton Elrick had seven
children : (i) Carrie Lucile, born at Zanesville, Ohio, August 3,
1874, married the writer, Orra Eugene Monnette, November 6,
1895, and now living at No. 3101 Wilshire Blv'd., Los Angeles,
California; (2) Louella Sharon, born at Zanesville, Ohio, De-
cember 26th, 1875, died February i8th, 1876 ; (3) Edith Francis,

In May, 1829, Joseph Eaton, residing at Morristown, Ohio,
aged 73, and in October, 1832, he was living in Guernsey County,
Ohio, aged 76 years, and badly afflicted with dropsy. In May,

these as well as all the Eastern states, have records of the
soldiers of the Revolutionary War, and of the pensions granted
them. The county records everywhere give the wills, deeds and
mortgages. In Massachusetts and elsewhere, where its citizens
have emigrated, the town records are very satisfactory, as they
give births, marriages and deaths down to the close of the Revo-
lution, and in some cases later. After this we are dependent on
the family bible and the old residents.
The town histories of many of these old towns are very use-
ful, especially where indexed as to names, and in very many
cases the records of old towns have been indexed by some in-
dustrious collector, to the great delectation of the searcher.
It is desirable, and almost necessary, to study the history of
the various localities, and follow the lines of emigration from the
early settlement.
The early settlers at Plymouth, Massachusetts, soon spread
out to the adjoining country, forming the towns of Plympton,
Marshfield, Rochester and Wareham, and of Sandwich and East-
ham on Cape Cod. Very soon the settlements continued to the
coast of Maine, and further inland in Massachusetts and Con-
necticut. And while some pressed on to Sharon in Connecticut
and to Hardwick in northern Massachusetts, and so gradually to
the West, others as early as 1650 settled in Queens and Suffolk
Counties on Long Island and as early as 1670 at Piscataway, near
the present city of New Brunswick, in New Jersey.
As the town lines have been cut up, and new towns formed,
it is essential to find which of the new divisions holds the original
town records, and even this may change every few years. But
I have always found Town Clerks very obliging, and I have
received invaluable assistance from collectors of statistics, and
local historians in every part of our country.
In this vicinity we are largely interested in the records of
Long Island, which was settled at its western end by the Dutch
from Manhattan, and at the eastern end by the emigration from
Massachusetts and Connecticut. The Dutch settled at Flatbush,
Flatlands, New Utrecht, Gravesend and later at Bruckleyn as
they called it.
The old Dutch church at Flatbush has some old records, and
the old Dutch families furnish some, but there are none of any
consequence at Brooklyn, all the deeds being comparatively
modern. The New York State records give about all we know
of this region, and these are to be found at Albany, N. Y., and in
the Register's Office in New York City. Indeed these latter are
very interesting. The Dutch also setted at Maspeth and New-
town, but the population there consisted more of emigrants from
New England who for various reasons sought residence in the
Dutch territory. These spread out to Flushing, to Jamaica and
Queens, meeting there the settlers of the Eastern end of Long
Island. Records of these families are found at Jamaica in the
county records, and in the various town records. The town
records of Oyster Bay are with the Town Clerk at East Norwich,
and cover all that region, including Cold Spring Harbor.
i9'2.] Book Notices. aq\
Records of Hempstead may be found at Hempstead and all of
these are in fair condition. But the records of the Friend's
Societies also give much valuable information. Some of these
are with the Society at Flushing but the most have been deposited
with the 2oth Street Friend's Meeting in New York City, Man-
hattan Borough.
We should by no means overlook the valuable services of
those who have so carefully gathered the records of towns and
of families. The libraries of the New York Genealogical and
Biographical Society, the Puplic Library, the New York Historical
Society and the Long Island Historical Society are particularly
rich in this literature, and a careful study of the volumes will
many times save a trip and hours of searching.
Families from Long Island emigrated again to Westchester,
Dutchess, Columbia and Renssalaer Counties in New York State
and to New Jersey. In Westchester County the records of St.
Peter's Church and of the town of Westchester are valuable; in
Dutchess County there are records at Poughkeepsie and several
other points, and some excellent local histories. In the other
counties it is more difficult. In New Jersey, the state records at
Trenton and some valuable manuscript collections in the New
Jersey Historical Society at Newark make a good foundation for
search.
It requires a good deal of patience and hard work to follow up
such information as may be collected in the ways mentioned
above by personal interviews with aged members of the families,
and old residents, but it is fully repaid by the results obtained.
One must recognize too, the difference in spelling of the name
in the same family and in some cases between brothers. The
English family of " Thornycraft " was represented in Suffolk
County by an old farmer with two sons. At his death the farm
was divided between them, one taking the name of Thorn and
the other of Craft. Both families have flourished and have
many modern representatives, who probably have no idea of
their earlier ancestry. Similar cases are not infrequent, and only
add to the zest of the enthusiastic Genealogist, when explained
by the records.

Editorial Note:— The New York Genealogical and Biographical Society solicits as
donations to its Library all newly published works on Genealogy. History and Biography, as well
as all works on Town, County and State History, or works embodying information regarding the
Vital Records of any and all localities. It also solicits the donation to the manuscript coIU'Ctions
of its library any and all manuscript compilations which bear upon the above mentioned topics.
In consideration of such donations the works so presented to the Society will be at once
placed upon the shelves of its library and will be reviewed in the next subsequent issue of The

whether in printed or manuscript form, will be reviewed under the head of "Book Notices" and
a copy of The Record containing the review will be sent to the donor.
The Society does not solicit donations of publications or manuscripts on topics foreign to
the above mentioned subjects, as its library is specialized and cannot accommodate material
which does not bear directly upon its recognized sphere of usefulness.
Donations for review in the January issue of The Record should be delivered to the

Besides its genealogical value this work contains a wealth of historical
matter connected with colonial days in New England and New York, It begins
with a record of members of the early Scudamore family of England, including
the Coat-of-Arms and the English Manor House and grounds.
Thomas Skidmore or Scudamore, the pioneer, was a descendant of Sir
Thomas Scudamore of Holme Lacy, Herefordshire, England. Born about 1600
he was married and living when thirty-five years of age at Westerly, County of
Gloucester, England. In about 1635 he sailed with Gov. Winthrop and his
company for the new world. The Massachusetts Bay Co., in 1630-1, having
selected the site of Cambridge as a " convenient place to erect a towne," Skid-
more took up his settlement there. He later removed to New London and
afterwards to Fairfield, in Connecticut Colony. .Soon he joined a party bound
for Long Island and with them founded the Huntington of today. In this way
he became connected with that island where the name has not only been pro-
lific but of genuine advantage to the upbuilding of the locality. He had six
children whose fortunes and those of their descendants it is the mission of this
book to follow, and thoroughly it would seem has the appointed task been
accomplished. Interspersed among the portraits are many really beautiful
illustrations relating to places connected with the family story. The author is
to be commended for praiseworthy zeal and intelligent use of her opportunity.

This work was decidedly worth while. Too many of the early tombstone

of all such as remain. The Committee will gladly publish in this quarterly

A list of the persons bearing the name contained in the Census of 1790 and
all the genealogical data appertaining to them. Of the 400,000 odd heads of
families enumerated, 587 bore the name whose families consisted of 3327
individuals. In N'ew York City there was no family and only eighteen in" the
whole State. In Boston there were 10 families while in the towns of Ipsuich
and Topsfield, where John Perkins and his three sons originally settled, there
were 35 families. A brief account of this John is adjoined with facts tending to

This worthy was one of the early Dutch settlers, a veritable Knickerbocker,
but without being aware of the fact. We doubt if he spelled his name
Cornelius with a " u." A blacksmith by trade, he resided in 1664 on Maiden
Lane near the Broad Way. His descendants have intermarried with the Van
de Water, Grevenraet, Couvenhoven, Lefferts, Roosevelt, Ten Eyck and
Schuyler families, among others; their connection with which has been genea-
logically shown on later pages. To this is added Clopper's will bearing date
Sept. 10, 1669. We welcome this account of one of the " Old New York

Available Records to the Present Time: with Portraits and other illustrations.
C. Z. Mast, Elverson, Penna. 8vo., cloth, pp. 822. Mennonite Publishing
House Press, Scottdale, Pa. Price $2.50. Indexed.
This book contains all that is known of the history of the Bishop who was born
in Switzerland in 1738, landed at Philadelphia Nov. 3, 1750, and settled near the
Blue Mountains in Berks Co., Pa. In 1760 his four sisters and younger brother
John were attacked by Indians; thus they were forced to seek another asylum
from persecution by settling in Conestoga Valley on a tract of land located one
quarter mile from the present site of Elverson, Pa., where he reared a family of
twelve children. John settled later in North Carolina and his descendants are
spread widely in southern states. Both brothers were members of the Amish
Mennonite Church which is closely allied to the main body of Mennonites in
America. Jacob was elected to the Bishoprick in 1788, was well educated for
the times and was a man of extensive influence. Nearly 2000 families claim
him as an ancestor. Interesting sketches with pedigree are printed concerning
the Zug or Zook, Kurtz, Hooley, Beiler, Stoltzfus, Johns, Miller, Gehman, Buch,
Groff, Kintzer, Boyer, Greth, Kennel, Troyer, Yoder, Snyder, Wanner, Reeser
families and others. A valuable and interesting compilation.
Descendants of Jacob Hochstetler, the Immigrant of 1736.

the Brethren Publishing House, Elgin, 111., 1912, price, cloth, $2.50; half
morocco, $3.00; full morocco, gilt top S3. 50. These prices exclude cost of trans-
portation.
The general plan undertaken by the compiler is, starting with the bead of
each family, to follow it with the generation number and number of the family
of the parents, present or last Post Office address, dates of birth and marriage,
name of marriage partner and ancestors of that partner. Then is given the
occupation of the family head and the religious preference. By this plan it is
easy to ascertain the descent of any individual and the particulars about him.
A method to be commended. The family descends from Jacob Hofstedler who
reached Philadelphia Sept. I, 1736, on a ship sailing from Rotterdam. He came
from Switzerland but from what place is unknown. He settled in the township
of Brecknock, Lancaster Co., where, being a farmer, he took up 200 acres of
land. Here a short stay was made. Being a member of the Amish church he
finally fixed his home at a settlement of that denomination on the Northkill, a
rapidly flowing creek, in Bern Township, in the same County. The pioneer
had three sons, John, Joseph and Christian, and a daughter Barbara. These and
their descendants make up the larger part of this volume. In the history of
the family which precedes the genealogy, we are granted, besides some account
of the church, a vivid presentation of the danger of border settlements, the
French and Indian War of 1754, the Massacre of 1757, the captivity of the
family, and the final escape from the tribe. Truly a story well worth the read-
ing. There is an appendix containing brief accounts of some related families
and indices which are remarkably extensive. The book is really a reference
work and as such will prove of valuable use to those of the name. It is well
bound and printed in clear though small type.

After a brief statement concerning families of the name in England and
Normandy the compiler continues giving biographies of the ancestors of this
family in the male line as far back as the immigration from England to
Plymouth Colony. All the descendants of Elisha Payne, the founder of
Hamilton, in the male and female line are given. There are also chapters
giving information about the families of the wives of the ancestors of Elisha
Payne in the male line. The compiler of this splendid work died before it was
ready for the printer, but the important task of editing fell into such able hands
that we recognize in this book a genealogical publication that is almost perfect

The Earliest Cuylers in Holland and America, and some of their
Descendants: Researches establishing a line from Tydeman Cuylers of Hasselt,
1456. By Maud Churchill Nicoll. Large octavo, pp. viii+69. Illustrated.
Tobias A. Wright, 1912. Price: Full morocco, gio; cloth, $5.00. Address A. J.
Wohlhagen, 520 West 183rd Street, New York.
It is rare that a compiler has the patience, the ability and the means to
trace a family back 500 years, establishing by undisputed documentry
evidence complete records of the generations down to the present time.
The name of Cuyler is of great anti(iuity, dating authentically to 1387— an
unusual thing in the history of Dutch surnames, and the Coat-of-Arms of the
Cuylers is found as early as 1502 in use as an official seal. The unbroken
records show that for 500 years the Cuylers have played an important part in
every generation and a study of a genealogical chart giving the descendants of
Hendrick Cuyler and his wife, Annetje Schepmoes, shows that there is scarcely
a Dutch family of consequence in New York who are not related to them by
cousanguinity or affinity. It was fortunate that the work of tracing and arrang-
ing these Cuyler records fell to so capable and indefatigable a genealogist as
Mrs. De Lancey Nicoll. It is a splendid record, perfectly arranged and most
beautiful printed and bound. The full morocco edition with colored Coat-
of-Arms, fine photogravure illustrations, and the text printed on Japan vellum,
establishes a high-water mark in this branch of publication. The book contains
a list of unplaced Cuylers, a partial list of works and sources consulted in its
compilation, and a perfect name index.

Compiled by S. S. Mason, igii. 8vo, cloth, ill., pp. gi. Press of J. H. Beard-
sley, Kingsley, Iowa. Cloth §2. 10 post paid; paper 60 cents.
This is a worthy contribution to the genealogy of the Mason Family. It is
limited, of course, by its title. The descriptive matter and the portraits show
the family to be of the old American stock, and the biographical references
indicate how well the Masons have served the country and civilization.

This type of book is particularly desired by this Society. Its genealogical
record of a New York family is valuable, and, incidentally, it casts light on the
early history of Onondaga County. These personal reminiscences give local
color to any book and are distinctly worth preserving.

America in the Line of John Hampton, Jr., of Wrightstown. By John Hampton

This is a thorough-going history of this branch of the Hampton Family,
whose records are well worth printing. The biographical sketches show that
the book was a labor of love. They will be very valuable to all the Hamptons,
and the records will prove of value to all enquirers as to the line of descent.

8vo, cloth, ill., pp. 126. Wm. Ellis Jones' Sons, Inc., Richmond, Va.
These two books are properly considered here as in series, giving an
account of this family from several generations before the ancestor emigrated
from England to this country. A vivid eye for matters of human interest
enables the author to make the two volumes very entertaining. The subject
has received literary treatment, and it is wonderful how this brightens up the
pages of genealogy. Thus the details of a family fracas in colonial Virginia
are given in the words of the old records, a most entertaining bit. A novelist
might well study these books of Mr. Cabell for local color of early colonial life
in Virginia. The reviewer owns himself very much entertained by this item
and others, such as the shady suggestions of London life in the sixteenth
century, into which " the unthrifty and disobedient son " Lionel Branch
plunged.
The books are splendidly appointed. The type and paper are of the best,
the illustrations of the finest and most beautiful.
An " unthrifty " ancestor and an unsuccessful lawsuit in England are
responsible for the founding of the Branch Family in Virginia. Christopher
Branch, the immigrant ancestor, sought the New World to rehabilitate the
family fortunes, and found a fertile field for his evident strong character and
ability. As landed proprietors in Virginia the Branches have produced many
strong and able men, as is witnessed by their portraits and records. But these
books show especially how entertaining genealogy may be made when treated
by one who understands literary values.
Sketches of the Forney Family by H. O. F. For Private Circulation
$3 per copy, 8vo, cloth, ill., pp. 129. Harper and Brother Co., Phil., 191 1.
The reviewer congratulates himself on having this book presented to him
for perusal. Of all the national and religious migrations to America the so-
called Pennsylvania-Dutch movement is one of the most interesting, and yet
history and literature slight it the most. This book is not a catalogue of names,
and in its biographical treatment, it shows more of the nature of this important
racial body than many a United States history.
We are moved to note the contrast between the fertile farms of York and
Lancaster Counties, Pennsylania, and the boulder-strewn patches of farm land
which the Puritans had to till. The Forneys reached comparative financial
ease, we imagine, long before the New England families of the same generation.

The task set for himself in the compilation of this voluminous book has
been well performed by the author, and speaks well for his untiring efforts.
The plan followed out so energetically has been the copying from local his-
tories or other sources everything of interest relating to the name. Extracts
from some 200 books have been brought together. Part II contains a large
number of contributed sketches that, in the words of the preface, " unite the
ancestry of yore with the progeny of today." If one may find any fault with
the work it would be that the type is too small, and that an index is lacking.

Beekman and Van Dyke Genealogy. Distinguished Families in
America Descended from Wilbelmus Beekman and Jan Thomasse van Dyke.
Compiled by William B. Aitken, A. M., Ph.D., printed by the Knickerbocker
Press, New York and London, 1912. Cloth, 8vo, pp. viii+266, illustrated.
This volume will prove interesting and useful to the descendants of the
above families and genealogists in general. It is written in a clear and concise
manner and brings down the generations of minors to the date of publication
and is completely indexed.
The illustrations consist of some fourteen full page reproductions of the
ancient homesteads of the early settlers, including a map and numerous smaller
illustrations of old time interest. The frontispiece gives the Beekman Coat-of-
Arms in color. The title page border is composed of the Coats-of-Arms of the
Allied Families in black and white. The preface gives a brief account of
"other Beekmans" "who are not related as far as known to Wilhelmus
Beekman."
The Beekmans are traced back to 1200 in Germany, and later in the
Netherlands, in both countries they were large land owners, and were dis-
tinguished for their talents, and by titles and military honors conferred upon
them for their courage and diplomatic abilities. They were men of letters,
clergymen of the Protestant faith, and held many public ofRces of prominence
in the old countries.
The Rev. Gerard Beekman, grandfather of Wilhelmus was a distinguished
theologian, whose services in translating the Bible were rewarded by King
James I, of England in granting him as a coat-of-arms, " A rivulet running
between roses." " Crest is three feathers on a helmet of steel represented in
profile." "The motto is: Mens conscia Recti."
The van Dyke Family. Jan Thomasse van Dyke who came to New
Netherland in 1652, was the son of Thomas van Dyke. He came from
Amsterdam in Holland in 1652, with his wife and seven children and brought
his coat-of-arms with him. He was one of the founders of Utrecht in 1657,
where he was granted a patent by the Governor and Council.
He was active in the affairs of the New Colony and received honors and
appointments under its government and was a magistrate at the time of his
death.
There were two other van Dykes who came from Holland to New Nether-
land,— Franz Classen van Dyke and Hendrick van Dyke in 1640. The volume
deals with the descendants of Jan Thomasse van Dyke who were numerous
and intermarried with many of the prominent old Dutch families and settled
in New York, New Jersey and Long Island.

Marshall and Smith, by A. D. Cloyd, M.D. Octavo, cloth, pp. 298. Price
S2.50. Omaha, Nebraska, 1912.
Much intelligent labor has been expended on this very interesting and
valuable book which contains some 4000 names of members of the above
families. It begins with the first immigrant ancestor of each family to
America, and contains a list of descendants, as far as known. By means of
this book any member of either of these families can trace his or her ancestry
to the original immigrant ancestor. As pecial feature of the book is an account
of the services, rendered as soldiers in the Revolution or other American wars.
It is profusely illustrated and the family groups, sometimes showing four
generations, are particularly interesting. The book is well printed on good
paper and substantially bound in cloth. The work ends with a Cloyd Family
Chart and a very complete index of names.

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 ol 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 thii
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.

DEPARTMENT OF REGISTRATION OF PEDIGREES.
This Society has established a Department for the Official Reg-
istration of Pedigrees, which Pedigrees will subsequently be pub-
ished in volumes, from time to time, as soon as the pedigrees filed
are sufficient in number to justify publication in volume form.
Each applicant for Registration of Pedigree who has paid the
fee in full will receive a copy of the volume containing his or her
pedigree, without further cost.
The opportunity is here offered for any or all of those desiring
to perpetuate the knowledge of their ancestry along any line of de-
scent, to have the same Officially Registered, and subsequently
published for the benefit of posterity.
Literature explaining in detail the method of conducting this
department will be mailed, upon application, to all interested in the
plan, by addressing,

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 stiflE 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 filinp 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-
ially urged to obtain these Charts, fill them m 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.
