NEW YORK, APRIL, 1875.
REV. JOHN JONES, FIRST MINISTER OF FAIRtj.
CONN., 1644-1664.
By John J. Latiing, of New York.
The Rev. John Jones was, as his name imphes, of Welsh extraction.
The families in Wales bearing his patronymic, however, are so numerous
that an attempt to trace his pedigree from any published records would
seem to be a task almost impossible. He is stated to have been " Edu-
cated and regularly ordained as a preacher of the Gospel in England,"
where he married and had several children. What is said, in some ac-
counts, of his being identical with the " Johannes Jones " son of William
Jones, of Abergavenny in Monmouth, matriculated at Jesus College, Cam-
bridge, April 30th, 1624, at the age of 17, is now admitted to be entirely
erroneous.
As appears from the interesting autobiography of Rev. Thomas She; .re,.
he came a fellow passenger with him in the ship Defence from London^j
landing at Boston 3d Oct., 1635. Although neither his name nor that
Shepard appears in the Custom House list of passengers of the vessel, ye
this list contains the names of Sarah Jones aged 34, Sarah Jones, 15^
John II, Ruth 7, Theophihis 3, Rebecca 2, and Elizabeth 6 months, un-j"
doubtedly his wife and children. Not long after this date, he is found tc
have penetrated through the then wilderness to Musketaquid, afterwards!
Concord, and engaged with the Rev. Peter Bulkley in the work of estabi
lishing there the " 12th Church of Christ." Edward Johnson in his quainl
History of New England or " Wonder Working Providence of Zion':
Saviour " describes him as a " Valiant Leader of Christ's Souldiers, a holy
man of God," and has left us this sonnet to his worth.
" In Desarts depth wlieie Wolves and Beares abide,
There yoncs sits down a wary watcli to keepe
O'er Christ's deare flock, who now are wandered wide ;
But not from hini, wliose eyes ne're close in sleepe.
Surely it sutes thy melancholly minde
Thus solitary for to spend thy dayes,
Much more thy soule in Christ Content doth finde,
To work for Him, wiio thee to joy will raise.
Leading thy son to Land, )ct more remote,
To feed his flock upon tliis Western waist :
Exhort him then Clirist's kingdome to promote;
That he with thee of lasting joyes may tast."

The early records of this church, as well as those of the town having been

1875.] J???, /o/rn Jones, First Minister of Fairfield, Cotm. eg
In the year 1653, during his uiinistr)-, occurred in Fairfield that disgraceful
and shameful proceeding — the trial, condemnation, and execution of Good-
wife Knapp, for witchcraft, one of the first instances in New England of
the tragic results of that superstitious delusion. That both the Pastor and
his wife were active participants in this affair, is apparent from the evidence
given on the trial of the suit of Thomas Staples against Roger Ludlow, in
the following year. Ludlow had reported among other things that Mrs.
Knapp, both before and after her condemnation, had charged Goodwife
Staples with being a witch, and he, lAidlow, had also further defamed her
by charging her with " making a trade of lying." Hence, the husband, in
this suit, sought vindication of his wife's honor, and pecuniary compensation
for his own and her mental sufferings. The proofs produced on this trial,
are the only known record of the proceedings in the witchcraft trial.
Mrs. Lucy Pell, wife of Thomas Pell, testified that at Goodwife Knapp's
trial, she was one of the women appointed by the Court to search the vic-
tim's body for witchmarks, and Mistress Jones, the Pastor's wife, was pres-
ent, and pressed her to confess whether there were any other witches in
Fairfield. On the day succeeding her condemnation, and while she lay in
prison, both the Pastor and his wife are found visiting her ; it may be, only
for her spiritual comfort, but the witnesses say they were continually urging
her to confess she was a witch, and thus " make way for the minister to
do her good." Rebecca Hull, the Pastor's own daughter, in her testimony,
gives us a picture of the mournful procession to the place of execution,
where Mr. Ludlow and her father are seen walking together by her side,
still pressing her to confess she was a witch. To the credit and courage
of the poor woman, be it added, she belied not her dignity of womanhood
by making any such absurd admission. '
It is presumed this Mistress Jones was his second wife, Susanna, men-
tioned in his will, and who survived him. His first wife, Sarah, as well as
his son, Theophilus, probably died in Concord. He himself, in 1658, had
already attained to such an age as to require an assistant in his pastorate,
which the church readily provided. The respect in which he was at this
time held by his townsmen and the General Court, may be inferred from
the following entry which the court saw fit to make at their session at
Hartford, on the 20th of May, of this year : "This Court approving the
pious care of the Towne of Fairfield in procuring help for Mr. Joanes by
his own consent thereunto, as far as appears by a pap' p'sented by their
Deputies to y" Court, doe order that according to their desires, the afore-
said paper be kept amongst the Court papers & desire the Towne not
any way thereupon to deprive y"" Rev'nd ancient Pastor Mr. Joanes in
sickness or health of his comfortable maintenance."
He died at Fairfield, in the month of January, 1664, and left the following
will:
January 17, 1664.
I, John Jones, Pastor of the Church at Fairfield in New England, being
weak in body, but of perfect memory, do make and ordain this my last
will and testament. — imprimis, I commit my soul into the hands of God,
and my body to be buried ; and as concerning my worldly goods, I dis-
* It may not be out of place to add that the Court held " that there was no proof that good wife Staples
was a witch," and Ludlow, the defendant, was ordered to "pay ;£io to the husband for his wife's name,
and £s for his tiouble and costs."
6o ■ Rev. John Jones, First Minisicr of Fairfield, Conn. [April,
pose of them as follows ;— First, my will is that seven pounds be taken out
of my estate which 1 shall leave behind me, to be delivered to the heirs or
executors of Capt. Cullick, sometime one of the magistrates m Connecti-
cut Jurisdiction, being due to him.
Item, whereas I promised to my dear wife, Susanna Jones, fifty pounds,
in case'l died before her, and beside gave her a silver bowl within a little
while after that I was married unto her, this I do confirm by my last will
that they are due unto her :— moreover, my will is that the said Susanna
my wife, shall have the use and benefit of my twelve acres of land in the
great meadow, and of my orchard in Fairfield, during her life ; and after
her death that it be divided equally to or amongst my six children, John,
Eliphalet, and my four daughters, Sarah Wilson, Widow Ruth James,
Rebecca Hull, and Elizabeth Hill. . •
Item.— I give to my eldest son John, part of my library, to wit, the
works of Augustine, Chrisostom, and of other authors (usually called "the
Fathers.") , , , , , . . , ,
Item —I give the rest of my goods undisposed (my debts being paid and
funeral discharged) to be equally divided amongst my aforesaid children,
John, Eliphalet, Sarah, Ruth, Rebecca and Elizabeth.
In witness whereof, I set my hand and seal the day and year aforesaid.
John Jones. : Seal.
Postscript —I make and ordain my wife Susanna Jones, sole executrix
of this my Will and Testament, and Mr. Gold and Mr. Pell, both of 1 air-
field, overseers thereof.
The widow doth accept of the place of an Executrix.
The widow makes oath that ihis is the last Will of Mr. J. Jones to the
best of her knowledge— this 30th June, 1665.
Nathan Gold.
Of the children, Sarah married Thomas Bulkley, son of the Revd. Peter
Bulkley of Concord. They came with her father to Fairfield, where he
died about 1658. By him she had a daughter, Sarah, born at Concord,
Aucr I. 1640. After her first husband's death, she married Anthony
Wifson, of Fairfield. He died early in 1662. She subsequently made a
will, April 26, 1667, giving lands to her two sons, John and Joseph be-
sides books and other property ; and to her daughters, Sarah, wife of Elea-
zer Brown, Rebecca, wife of Joseph Whelpley, and Hannah, books and
other property. j r- 1
loHN Jones, son of the Rev. John Jones, graduated at Harvard Col-
lege in 1643, in his 19th year. Was admitted freeman at Concord in 1645.
He is supposed to be the "son" referred to by Johnson m the verses on
his father above quoted, and is believed to have subsequently removed to,
and settled in the Island of Nevis, in the West Indies, where he married
and died prior to 1673, leaving a son, John, who with his mother, the
widow, subsequently returned to New Haven. '

Rebecca, one of the daughters, married Cornelius Hull, of Fairfield, by
wnom she had Samuel, Cornelius, and Tlieophilus, and daughters Rebecca,
Sarah, who married Robert Silliman, and Martha, who married Cornelius
Liston.
Elizabeth, another daughter, married \Villiam Hill, of Fairfield, and
survived her husband, who died in 16S4. She had five children, William,
Eljphalet, Joseph, John, and Sarah.
Ruth, the other daughter, married James, but of her or her de-
scendants nothing now is known.
Ei.iPHALET Jones, youngest son of the Rev. John Jones, was born at
Concord, January 11, "1641. Entered Harvard College in [662, but did
not graduate, probably by reason of his father's death in the second year of
his course, and of his limited means. In 1669 he is found stationed at
Greenwich, in Connecticut, in which year he is admitted to the privileges
of a freeman.' Whether he was here at this time as a settled minister or
not does not clearly appear. In 1672 he was called to Stamford, as col-
league or assistant to the Rev. John Bishop of that place. On the 3d of
May of that year, the town voted " to give Mr. Jones an invitation to be a
minister of the- Gospel in this place if he remove from Greenwich." In
November of the same year he is " accommodated with a piece of land in
liis own right, provided he settle here in the work of the ministry," and Mr.
Law, Mr. Holly, and Jonathan Sellick are chosen to treat with the Green-
wich men "about their compliance with Stamford, for the upholding of the
ministry in this place." The town subsequently exchanged the above
"piece of land," which was "on the west side of the Southfield," for the
more eligible tract on the beautiful headland fronting and overlooking
Long Island Sound, now owned and occupied by Capt. B. L. Waite, and
the Brothers Alfred and Benjamin Scofield. This was the same field which
the Sagamores reserved for their planting ground when making the
original grant for the town in 1640, but which also w'as subsequently sur-
rendered by them to the town. It was now (1672) voted that " Mr. Jones
shall have that piece of land at Wescus which was improved by the Engins
in case it be cleared from all English and Engins and this land to be Mr.
Jones' proper right in lue of that jiiece of land granted to him on the west
side of the southfield." While residing here he also preached at Rye from
time to time. The General Court of Connecticut sitting at Hartford, .May
14, 1674, made the following order: " This Court desires Mr. Eli[)halet
Joanes to take the paynes to despence the word of God to the people of
Rye once a fortnight on the Lord's Day till the Court, October next and
then this Court will take further order concerning them and for Mr. Jones's
satisfaction." - He must have been popular as a minister at this period. As
early as 1669, the year of his commencement in the minislr}' at Greenwich,
the people of Jamaica, L. I., voted to send a messenger to invite him to
visit them with a view to a settlement, but it apjiears he declined going.
In 1675, on an invitation from the people of Huntington, L. I., he visited
them, and in January following he was desired to " Continue among them
as their minister, and they voted to give him twenty acres of land where
lie chose to select it. He appears not to have permanently settled there
Irowever, until 1677, when he was formally ordained as the successor of

62 Rev. John Jones, First Minister of Fairfield, Conn. [April,
the Rev. William Leverich, over the First Presbyterian Church at that
place. Here he continued for over half a century. He is described as
" a man of great purity and simplicity of manners, and a faithful and suc-
cessful preacher."
Not until he had attained his 78th year, did he have the aid of an
assistant. At that time Mr. Ebenezer Prime, then a young man, ancestor
of our well-known and very worthy fellow-citizens, the Revs. Samuel I. and
Edward D. G. Prime, and of Wni. C. Prime, Esq., was engaged in that
capacity, and four years afterwards, in 1723, was ordained as colleague;
on which occasion Mr. Jones, then in his 82d year, presided at the
ordaining council, and delivered the pastoral charge. He lived to the
age of 91 years and died in Huntington, June 5, 1731. He never married,
and what estate he had he bequeathed to his sister's son, Eliphalet Hill,
his namesake, who, in his declining years, took care of him and managed
his affairs.
At the easterly end of the main street in the now peaceful village of
Huntington, rises an eminence which overlooks the town and the beautiful
harbor and the country for miles around. This the early settlers had set
apart and consecrated for the sepulchres of their dead ; and here they
buried their Pastor. But here, fifty years afterwards, came Col. Benjamin
Thompson, Count Rumford, with his vandal troops, and demolished the
church, and with its timbers erected block houses and barracks over the
graves which he levelled for the purpose, using the tombstones for build-
ing tlieir fire-places and ovens. One veritable chronicler tells i?s how he
had heard from the lips of living witnesses that they had seen these
soldiers draw their loaves of bread from these ovens, having the reversed
inscriptions of the tombstones of their friends on the lower crust ! But
" the whirligig of Time brought about its revenges :" the Briton with his
minions of outrage passed away, and the Peace of Desolation settled over
the sacred enclosure.
When a full century had elapsed, and the ashes of the aged minister had
reposed so long beneath the sod, that the place of their interment had been
utterly forgotten, or all mementos of it entirely obliterated by these ravages
of war, the peo|)le of another generation — the descendants of the sires to
whom he had so long and faithfully dispensed the Word of God — still cherish-
ing and reviving the memory and tradition of his virtues, erected a plain
but decent cenotaph in remembrance of him, in this their public burial
ground. The stone bears the following inscription : "In Memory of Rev.
Eliphalet Jones who was the only settled Minister in Huntington, from
1676 to 1723. He was born in Concord, Massachusetts, and died between
1730 and 1740, near 100 years old."
He deserved a better monument, and one with a more fitting and correct
inscription.

BRIEF NOTES OF THE EARLY HISTORY OF THE DEWEY
FAMILY IN AMERICA.
By Benjamin W. Dwigiit, of Clinton, N. Y,
The facts here detailed weie gathered, many of them, by the writer,
when engaged in investigating the history of The Strong Family, at various
points in New England, and especially at Northampton and Westfield,
Mass., as well as at Lebanon, Ct. Other associated items have been ac-
cumulated at different times through several years past from a variety of
sources.
THOMAS DEWEY, the Settler (spelled also in the Dorchester records,
Duee), came to Dorchester, Mass., in 1633, from Sandwich, Kent, England,
near the ancient town of Dover, and was enrolled as a freeman there. May
14, 1634. He removed about 163S to Windsor, Ct., and m. there, March
22, 1638-9, widow Frances Clarke, by whom he had 5 children. He was
cornet of the town troop of soldiers. He d. at Windsor, April 27, 1648.
He was frequently juror and deputy to the Ceneral Court. His widow ni.
for a 3d husband, Nov. 30, 1648, George Phelps, and soon afterwards re-
moved to Westfield, Mass., with all the Dewey children except Israel, who
remained in Windsor and d. there at an advanced age, leaving no issue.
Thomas Dewey and all his descendants for several generations are believed
to have been farmers. [The first husband of Mrs. Frances Dewey was
Joseph Clarke. Their daughter, Mary Clarke, was the first wife of John
Strong, Jr., of Windsor, son of Elder John Strong of Northampton. See
Hist. Strong F'amily by the writer, p. 20. Mrs. Frances (Dewey) Phelps

before his death, some two years since, that he had had in his hands for a
considerable time a full history of the Noble Family, prepared with thorough-
ness by himself; which, to liis great regret, he had not been able to pub-
lish, because that family had never shown itself ready to meet the needful
expense of doing so. ISTay some future investigator succeed in bringing

TOHN CRUGER came from Germany to America previous to the year
i7'oo, and resided in the City of New York. An old record in the posses-
sion of Mr. John C. Cruger, of Cruger's Island, says: 'trom the t.aduioi -
arv account in the family and from the coat of arms which he brought with
him it is supposed he was descended from the family of Baron von Cruger.
¥ e ame of that family was always spelt with a C, whilst that of the com-
monalty in Germany is spelt with a K." The name itself m its origin is a
corruption, undoubtedly, of the Latin Cruciger, or cross-bearer
He was a merchant, a high-toned gentleman, and a prominent c.ti/.en of
New York during the first half of the eighteenth century He was elected
AldLman of the Dock Ward in 1712, and held the othce till i733 mchi-

he office for ten years till 1766. In I7S9 he was elected a representative
in th^ Assembly, and remained a member till the termination of the Lng-
lish rule in 1775, the long period of seventeen years. In 1769, m a closely
contested election, he was' chosen Speaker over William Livingston, the
candidate of the Presbyterian party, afterwards Governor of New Jersey,
an 1 filled the same office in all succeeding Assemblies to the Revolu ion.
^rom this fact he was always known in New York -fi;-„death, which
took place at Kinderhook in 1792, as -The Old Speaker When e

New York, and in otlice at the breaking out of hostilities three years later
When the Provincial Brigade " De Lancev's Battalions" was raised in
1776, under Oh verde Lancey as Brigadier General, "for the defence of
Long Island, and other exigencies," he was commissioned Lieut. -Colonel
o| the 1st battalion or regiment, General de Lancey himself being the
Colonel. He was very distinguished as an officer, on Long Island, at
Savannah, Charleston, and Camden, brilliantly and successfully defended
Fort Ninety-sLN; in South Carolina, against Gen. Nathaniel Greene, who
was compelled to raise the siege, and by his coolness and steadiness turned
the fortunes of the day in favor of the British at Eutaw Springs.
After the war he went to England, and resided at Beverley^in Yorkshire,
where he died. He had no issue.
Henry Cruger, the second son, educated at King's College, N. Y., was
m 1757 sent by his father to Bristol, England, to enter a counting-house.
He became a successful and popular merchant of that citv, which he made
his honie. In 1774 he and Bldmund Burke were nomina'ted for Members
of Parliament for Bristol, and after a sharp contest elected. He was also
once Sherift" of Bristol, and in 1781 was elected its Mayor. In 1784 he
was again elected to Parliament. In 1790 he declined a re-election, hav-
ing determined to return to America and reside there for the rest of his life,
and in the same year came back with his family to his native city. Here he'
soon became engaged in politics, and notwithstanding his service in Parlia-
ment, and especially his re-election in 1784, after the peace of 1783, and
subsequent service of about six years, he was, in 1792, elected a Senator
of the State of New York, and served as such. His residence during the
latter part of his life was at 382 Greenwich St., New York, where he died
the 24th of April, 1827, aged 88 years.

of Bristol, by whom he had one child, Samuel Peach Cruger, who subse-
quently took the surname of Peach, and was the late Samuel Peach Peach
of TockingtoR House, Gloucester, in England, who married a daughter of

[The original records of all these marriages are copies of the marriage
certificates, and to each certificate are appended the names of the witnesses
present at the ceremony. .\s these names are, in most instances, very
numerous, generally comprising all members of the Society present at the
meeting, and are thus necessarily merely repetitions of the names of the
same persons, the Publication Committee have concluded to omit them.
The full transcript is in the hands of the Committee, and open to the in-

NOTES AND QUERIES.
CnABB, Richard — Was of Stamford, Conn., 1641-1658. Who was his wife? On
his trial before the Court of Magistr.ites, at New Haven, May 2Sth, 165S, he testified
that " she was a well-bred woman in England, a zealous professor from her childliood, almost
beyond example." (New Haven Col. Records, vol. ii,, p. 246). In a petition of Robert
Coe, of Jamaica, dated May 9, 1661, preserved among the Dutch MSS. in the Secretary
of State's Office at Albany, vol. ix., p. 600, he refers to Richard Crabbc as his " brother-
iti-la-w." Crabb was presumably at this date a resident of Oyster Bay, L. I., where he
married for his second wife, Alice the widow of Peter Wright. He died there on the
6th of April, 16S0. J- J- i-
De Sille. — Vol. vi., p. 54. — In reply to enquiries about Nicasiiis de Sille, I would
state that de Sille had children, Laiirenee, born in Holland, and married a dauglitcr of
Capt. Martin Cregier ; Gerdienlje, who married Jan Gerritse Van Couwenlioven, the an-
cestor of the Brooklyn and New Utrecht branches of the Couwenhoven family, among
whom the name of Nicholas abounds to this day ; and Anna, who married, Feb. 29, 1660
(see N. Y. Dutch ch. rec. ), Hendrick Kip.
The U'albrilg de Sille wlio married Frans Cregier was probably a relative of NiCASiCs,
but I have seen no evidence of her being his daughter. On the marriage record she is
entered as from Mestricht, while Anna, who was married the same day, is entered from
Van Wyck.
J lO Notes and Queries. [April,
The Coiiwenhovens of New Utvecht had some years ago a portrait of de Si/U, which
unfortunately through carelessness was destroyed by the children of the family. T. G. B.
Grimat.di. — The slightest information of a family bearing this name, who went from
Cienoa before the Revolution to Savannah, Georgia, will be very thankfully received by
the undersigned. This family were at one time Dukes of Genoa and Counts of Beaufort.
William Joh.\ Potts, Camden, New Jejsey.
Hallett, Lydia. — What was the maiden name of the wife of Joseph Hallett, and
who were her parents? Her husband was born at Hallett's Point, August 14, 1714, and
died at same place December 14, 1731, aged 27 ; having issue by his wife Lydia, one son
and one daughter.
1st. Joseph (merchant, a prominent member of the N. Y. Committees of Safety, of
the first State Congresses, active in procuring arms and ammunition for the army at the
opening of the Revolution, of large wealth), born Jan. 26, 1731, died August 9, 1799.
2d. Lydia, born 1732, soon after her father's death; died 26th Feb., 1812 (buried at
Sunsvvick, Newtown, Blackwell reserved burial ground). She married, Feb. 19, 1755, ^^^^
cousin Colonel Jacob Blackwell, by whom she left issue.
Letters of administration were granted on the estate of the above Joseph (who died
1731), Vol. n of wills, p. 205, to Richard Alsop of Newtown, and therein the widow
Lvdia is frequently named. The inventory is made by Jacob Blackwell and Thomas
Alsop. M. L. D.
Hazard. — Mrs. Nathaniel Hazard, born Elizabeth Drummond. Who were the pa-
rents of Mrs. Elizabeth Hazard ? Her husband Nathaniel Hazard died at his house in
Hanover Square, N. Y. City, January, 1765, and left a numerous progeny. Her maiden
name was Elizabeth Drummond ; she died at the house of her daughter Mrs. Joseph
Hallett, 229 Duane St., N. Y. City, May 27, iSii, aged gS. Tradition says that she
was born in Scotland and passed most of her youth in France. Only by a long residence
in France could she have acqnired the thorough knowledge of French which she posessed,
and correct pronunciation as rare then as now with the English siieaking races. Dutch
and English were equally familiar, whether she understood Scotch, the writer has not
learned. Her knowledge of the Bible and Biblical History were very remarkable, in ar-
gument she was wont to iUustrate such subjects with quotations and references, references
often drawn from works not easily attainable in this country. For this knowledge, for the
information she could impart and for her piety, her society was sought by the clergy of
this and neighboring cities, including members of other besides her own (Presbyterian; de-
nomination.
Tradition names Scotland as her birth-place, and the date is fixed, by the record of her
death, at 1713. On the other hand it is found that Ann, wife of Robert Drummond (a
vintner) was confined in 1 7 13 in New York City.
May 30, 1 7 16, Robert and Ann Drummond (he a vintner), residing in Elizabethtown,
N. J., applied in this city for letters of administration on the estate of Monteth Noell,
said .'Vnn Drummond having formerly been the wife of Richard Hall, who in his lifetime
was brother to Monteth Noell by the mother's side. It further appears that by her for-
mer husband the said Ann had two children, Elizabeth and Ann.
It is now claimed notwithstanding the assertion of those now living who know Mrs.
Nathaniel Hazard, that she was the daughter of Roliert and Ann Drummond ; but is it
likely that having one daughter living (by her first husband Hall) named Elizabeth, a
daughter by Mrs. Drummond's second husband would also be called Elizabeth. Mrs. Ha-
zard's descendants are so numerous that we may hope extended inquiry will clear up the
disputed question of her birth, the true facts must be known by some of them.

Odell. — William Odell, supposed to be a descendant of the English family of Odell
mentioned in Burke's " Landed Gentry," in 1639, came from England to Concord, Mass.,
where he was probably a member of the congregation of the Rev. Peter Bulkley, who
was born in the parish of Odell, Bedford Co., England. In 1644, Mr. Odell removed
to Fairfield, Conn., and his son William became one of the principal proprietors of Rye, '
New York.

of Howland and Aspinwall, which succeeded that of the elder Howlands. He took much
interest in the establishment of steam communication with San Francisco, and the success
of the Pacific Mail Steamship Co. and of the Panama Railroad is largely due to his exer-
tions. The eastern terminus of the road was named after him in acknowledgment of the
zeal and ability which he displayed. He leaves two sons, Lloyd Aspinwall, who succeeded
