EXPLANATORY 


THE  system  employed  in  compiling  the  genealogical  section  of 
this  work  is  believed  to  be  the  most  approved  now  in  use,  and 
may  readily  be  understood  by  a  little  study.  The  compilers  have 
added  new  features  which  they  believe  will  be  found  valuable,  both  in 
the  body  of  the  work  and  in  the  index.  The  ancestral  chain,  given 
after  the  name  of  each  descendant  having  issue,  shows  the  full  line  of 
descent  at  a  glance.     Each  descendant  has  his  own  number. 

When  descendants  do  not  have  issue,  their  full  biography  will  be  found 
connected  with  their  names  first  mentioned,  and  in  the  consecutive  small 
numbers.  When  a  descendant  has  issue,  his  or  her  name  is  carried  forward 
in  the  large  numbers  to  the  next  generation,  where  the  biography  is  fully 
given,  followed  by  the  list  of  his  or  her  children. 

Each  female  line  ends  in  the  book  with  the  grandchildren  of  an  Ogden 
mother,  but  the  line  is  continued  in  the  charts,  and  without  numbers. 

Where  correspondents  sent  in  tardy  data  concerning  their  families,  and 
after,  the  editors  had  systematically  arranged  the  regular  descendants  by 
consecutive,  numbers,  it  became  necessary  to  group  the  added  names  in 
the  immediate  family  line,  each  child  taking  the  parent's  number,  with 
a  letter  of  the  alphabet  annexed. 

In  cases  of  intermarriage,  and  where  there  was  issue,  the  person  bear- 
ing the  name  Ogden,  or  the  person  first  recorded  in  the  regular  line  of 
ancestry,  is  usually  the  one  carried  forward  to  the  next  generation.  To 
indicate  specially  the  person  carried  forward,  the  cross-reference  "{See 
No.  — )"  is  employed. 

The  usual  genealogical  terms  and  abbreviations  are  used  throughout 
the  work,  viz.:  b. — born;  cir.,  circ. — circa,  about;  d. — died;  dau. — 
daughter;  d.  s.  p. — died  without  issue;  d.  y. — died  young;  m. — married; 
s.  p. — sine  prole,  without  issue ;  unm. — unmarried;  w. — wife;  wid. — widow 
or  widower. 

The  editors  do  not  assume  that  no  errors  are  discoverable  in  this  work. 
A  number  of  conflicting  statements  sent  by  different  correspondents,  and 
a  disagreement  of  old  records,  were  often  puzzling  to  the  editors;  but 
great  care  was  exercised  in  settling  upon  what  seemed  to  them  the  most 
authentic  and  trustworthy. 


"Good  blood — descent  from  the  great  and 
good — is  a  high  honor  and  privilege.  He  that 
lives  worthily  of  it  is  deserving  of  the  highest 
esteem;  he  that  does  not,  of  the  deeper  disgrace." 
— Colton.

INTRODUCTORY 


HERE  is  something  peculiarly  gratifying  to  the  aver- 
age American  citizen  to  be  able  to  trace  his  lineage 
to  the  primal  days  of  Colonial  life,  and  especially 
to  a  worthy,  virtuous,  and  honored  ancestor.  The 
attention  of  the  living  generation  may  at  times  be 
more  or  less  diverted  by  external  and  transitory 
matters,  but  there  ever  abides  a  deep  and  undying 
satisfaction  in  the  knowledge  that  one  is  heir  to 
strong  and  enduring  ancestral  character ;  in  the  fact  of  being  able  to  point 
back  to  him  who  first  came  to  the  New  World,  as  the  Florentine  to  the 
beautiful  bronze  gates  of  his  native  city.  Like  those  masterpieces  that 
Angelo  said  were  fit  to  be  the  Gates  of  Paradise,  and  which  Dante  called 
the  Golden  Gates,  so,  aback  in  the  centuries,  stands  the  noble  character 
of  the  progenitor  of  his  race.  As  with  the  Gates  of  Florence,  time  indeed 
may  have  removed  the  glitter,  but  the  original  bronze  with  its  exquisite 
imagery  stands  out  the  more  striking  and  impressive.  A  line  of  American 
ancestry  that  has  issued  through  such  a  worthy  and  enduring  portal 
of  character  would  be  false  to  their  better  instincts  not  to  give  to  their 
progenitor  due  admiration  and  reverence,  and  take  a  lively  interest  in 
the  doings  of  his  descendants. 

Lord  Macaulay  well  says:  "People  who  take  no  pride  in  the  noble 
achievements  of  remote  ancestors  will  never  achieve  anything  worthy  to  be 
remembered  with  pride  by  remote  descendants. "  Such  an  ancestral  portal 
was  John  Ogden,  the  Pilgrim,  the  first  of  his  line  in  America,  and  who  was 
happily  known  as  "Good  Old  John  Ogden, "  of  Elizabethtown,  N.  J. 


giittroDuctor? 


It  is  true  that  many  American  families  seem  indifferent  to  their  past 
history,  and  are  ready  to  quote  Horace :  "  It  is  of  no  consequence  of  what 
parents  a  man  is  born,  so  he  be  a  man  of  merit;"  yet  Bishop  Warburton 
aptly  says:  "  High  birth  is  a  thing  which  I  never  knew  any  one  to  disparage 
except  those  who  had  it  not ;  and  I  never  knew  any  one  to  make  a  boast  of 
it  who  had  anything  else  to  be  proud  of. ' '  Plato  truly  says :  ' '  Hereditary 
honors  are  a  noble  and  splendid  treasure  to  descendants, "  and  it  naturally 
behooves  the  latter  to  be  faithful  to  the  ancient  traditions. 

The  true  American  spirit,  and  that  which  should  be  cherished  by  worthy 
families,  is  constantly  echoed  from  the  lips  of  Daniel  Webster  in  his  dis- 
course delivered  at  Plymouth,  Dec.  22,  1820,  in  commemoration  of  the  first 
settlement  of  New  England.  His  sentiments  are  so  apt,  we  will  quote  the 
more  fully:  "Human  and  mortal  though  we  are,  we  are,  nevertheless,  not 
mere  insulated  beings,  without  relation  to  the  past  or  future.  Neither  the 
point  of  time  nor  the  spot  of  earth  in  which  we  physically  live  bounds  our 
rational  and  intellectual  enjoyments.  We  live  in  the  past  by  a  knowledge  of 
its  history,  and  in  the  future  by  hope  and  anticipation.  By  ascending  to 
an  association  with  our  ancestors;  by  contemplating  their  example,  and 
studying  their  character;  by  partaking  their  sentiments,  and  imbibing 
their  spirit;  by  accompanying  them  in  their  toils;  by  sympathizing  in 
their  sufferings,  and  rejoicing  in  their  successes  and  their  triumphs, — we 
mingle  our  own  existence  with  theirs  and  seem  to  belong  to  their  age.  We 
become  their  contemporaries,  live  the  lives  which  they  lived,  endure  what 
they  endured,  and  partake  in  the  rewards  which  they  enjoyed.  .  .   . 

"There  may  be,  and  there  often  is,  indeed,  a  regard  for  ancestry,  which 
nourishes  only  a  weak  pride;  as  there  is  also  a  care  for  posterity,  which 
only  disguises  an  habitual  avarice,  or  hides  the  workings  of  a  low  and 
grovelling  vanity.  But  there  is  also  a  moral  and  philosophical  respect  for 
our  ancestors,  which  elevates  the  character  and  improves  the  heart.  Next 
to  the  sense  of  religious  duty  and  moral  feeling,  I  hardly  know  what 
should  bear  with  stronger  obligation  on  a  liberal  and  enlightened  mind 
than  a  consciousness  of  alliance  with  excellence  which  is  departed;  and 
a  consciousness,  too,  that  in  its  acts  and  conduct,  and  even  in  its 
sentiments,  it  may  be  actively  operating  on  the  happiness  of  those 
who   come   after  it. ' ' 

This  is  the  thought  that  doubtless  prompted  Cicero  to  say :  ' '  The  best 
inheritance  that  a  father  can  leave  to  his  children,  and  which  is  superior 
to  any  patrimony,  is  the  glory  of  his  virtue  and  noble  deeds:  to  disgrace 
which  ought  to  be  regarded  as  base  and  impious." 


3jntrot)uctori? 


One  of  the  most  important  thoughts  that  should  possess  an  inheritor 
of  worthy  blood,  is  that  he  is  a  link  between  the  past  and  the  future,  and 
that  he  is  to  transmit  to  the  succeeding  generation  the  virtues  he  has 
received  from  his  forefathers.  He  should  be  enthused  by  a  study  of  the 
past,  for,  as  Burke  remarks:  "People  will  not  look  forward  to  posterity, 
who  never  look  backward  to  their  ancestors." 

There  is  much  fascination  in  the  tracing  back  of  ancestral  lines,  in  spite 
of  the  many  discouragements  and  the  tediousness  of  the  work.  The  usual 
genealogical  difficulties  common  to  all  compilers  were  encountered  by  Mr. 
Wheeler,  but  it  is  highly  gratifying  that  his  toils  were  so  richly  rewarded. 
The  facts  underlying  the  life  and  character  of  John  Ogden,  the  Pilgrim,  have 
been  fully  investigated.  His  sterling  character  having  been  transmitted 
through  so  many  honored  descendants  was  doubtless  that  which  prompted 
Mr.  William  Ogden  Wheeler  to  labor  earnestly  for  eighteen  years  in  com- 
piling so  much  valuable  data  connected  with  his  illustrious  ancestor  and 
the  projected  lines  of  descent.  While  we  sincerely  regret  that  Mr.  Wheeler 
did  not  live  to  see  the  published  results  of  his  years  of  personal  sacrifice  and 
labors,  we  count  ourselves  most  happy  in  taking  the  accumulated  material 
and  rearing  a  monument  to  his  memory.  In  a  sense,  the  long  period  of 
self-sacrificing  labor,  aided  though  he  was  by  a  competent  corps  of  secre- 
taries, was  a  period  of  unrequited  toil ;  yet  he  took  great  delight  in  the  work, 
such  as  the  numerous  Ogden  Family  may  never  fully  appreciate. 

The  historical  and  biographical  material  in  the  following  pages  is 
believed  to  be  trustworthy  in  every  essential  detail.  That  the  volume  may 
be  a  fitting  tribute  to  the  memory  of  the  compiler  is  the  sincere  wish  of 

The  Editors.

ENGLISH     OGDEN 

AND      DERIVATION      OF 

ANCESTRY 

THE      SURNAME 

ROOT-TRACING  of  the  surname  Ogden  readily  leads 
us  backward  to  early  Saxon  soil.  Authorities  on 
English  surnames  generally  agree  that  the  name 
comes  from  the  Saxon  ock,  oak-tree,  and  den,  a 
local  termination  occurring  in  the  weald  of  Kent, 
Sussex,  and  elsewhere,  implying  a  covert  and  feeding 
place  for  animals,  and  synonymous  with  dean,  a 
wooded  valley,  or  tract  yielding  acorns  or  mast. 
The  surname  is  thus  freely  rendered,  "the  oak  valley,"  "oak  dale," 
"vale  of  oaks,"  "leafy  vale";  or,  as  William  Arthur,  M.A.,  in  "An  Ety- 
mological Dictionary  of  Family  and  Christian  Names,"  says,  "the  oak  vale, 
or  shady  valley. "  In  support  of  this  interpretation  the  fact  may  be  stated 
that  on  all  the  escutcheons  of  the  arms-bearing  Ogden  families  of  England, 
the  oak  branch,  or  oak  leaves  and  acorns  are  always  found,  and  usually 
in  the  crest.  One  of  the  earliest  arms — that  of  "Okton,"  in  Guillim's 
"Display  of  Heraldry"  (1724) — has  the  quartering  of  the  Quaker  Ogden 
arms,  but  in  blue,  and  canton  in  corner,  while  the  same  quartering  is 
found  in  the  "Okeden"  arms,  by  Edmondson  (1780),  in  which  the 
blue  is  replaced  by  red;  for  "Okeden  of  Ellingham  in  Hampshire" 
(1780),  the  arms  consist  of  "sable,  on  a  fesse  argent,  between  3  acorns 
gold,  as  many  oak  leaves  vert,"  the  same  display  as  the  Hants  family 
of  Ogdens  of  this  book. 


cBnglt^  €>8&en  anccjsttt 


When  surnames  became  necessary,  it  was  common  to  designate  a  man 
by  some  distinguishing  locality,  or  calling  in  life.  Thus,  John  de  Oketon 
retained  this  surname,  as  he  lived  near  a  thickly  wooded  valley.  Many 
old  English  works  give  unmistakable  evidence  that  several  families  of  this 
surname,  variously  spelled,  and  located  in  different  parts  of  England,  ex- 
tend back  to  the  time  of  William  the  Conqueror  (io27?-io87). 

Beardsley  says  that  Ogden  was  first  written  de  Hoghton.  Peter  de 
Hoton,  1 1 50  A.D.,  founded  Erden  or  Arden  Priory,  a  Benedictine  nunnery 
near  Black  Hameldon  in  the  deanery  and  archdeanery  of  Cleveland.  In 
1200  A.D.,  John  de  Hoton,  father  of  Sir  John  de  Oketon,  Knight  of  Row- 
candura,  granted  mill  and  water  power,  and  gave  two  oxgangs  of  land  to 
the  parish  of  Hoton.  Burton's  "Ecclesiastical  History  of  Yorkshire" 
(1758)  gives  the  foregoing,  and  mentions  many  others  of  the  surname, 
and  under  later  dates,  while  "Hundred  Rolls,"  "Harlem  MSS.,"  "Parlia- 
mentary Writs,"  "Burton's  Antiquities,"  "Berry's  Visitation  of  Hamp- 
shire, "  etc.,  add  many  others  of  the  name,  coming  down  to  more  modern 
times.  The  various  Ogden  families  (or  the  civil  and  church  authorities 
for  them)  often  spelled  the  surname  differently,  even  among  their  im- 
mediate, connections,  and,  in  its  mutations,  we  have  "de  Oketon,"  "Oke- 
tone, "  "Ocktone, "  "Okedone, "  "Okedon,"  "Okeden, "  "Oakden, " 
"Okden, "  and  finally  "Ogden."  The  earliest  date  of  the  present  spell- 
ing of  the  surname  is  circa  1500  A.D.,  while  some  of  the  earlier  spellings, 
especially  "Okeden,"  are  found  as  late  as  1738. 

To  discover  the  immediate  family  connection  in  England  of  John 
Ogden,  of  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.,  has  long  been  a  perplexing  problem.  The 
name  appears  on  the  parish  records  of  several  different  localities  in  Eng- 
land, and  all  efforts  to  clearly  trace  these  families  to  a  common  ancestor 
have  failed. 

There  seems  small  room  for  doubt,  however,  that  John  Ogden,  the 
Pilgrim,  whom  we  have  traced  back  in  America  to  his  settlement  at 
Southampton,  on  Long  Island,  in  1640,  came  there  with  his  wife  and  three 
oldest  children,  from  Bradley  Plain,  in  Co.  Southants  (Southampton), 
and  that  several  generations  of  his  forefathers  had  lived  there  before  him. 
This  is  shown  in  part  by  "Berry's  Visitation  of  Hants"  (1634),  and  the 
rest  is  confirmed  by  a  genealogist*  who  claims  personal  knowledge  of  the 
church  records  at  Bradley  Plain,  Hampshire,  and  of  several  other  English 
records  and  authorities.

The  earliest  discoverable  ancestor  from  whom  John  Ogden  was  de- 
scended appears  to  be  one  Robert  Ogden,  and  the  time  the  middle  of  the 
fifteenth  century.  In  tracing  his  line  of  descent,  we  will,  for  the  purposes 
of  this  record,  use  the  present  spelling  of  the  surname. 

i.  Robert  Ogden.  The  first  record  found  of  him  is  in  the  year  1453 
A.D.,  when  he  appears  as  a  witness  to  a  grant  of  land  in  Nutley,  Hampshire. 
He  again  appears  with  others  in  1457,  in  connection  with  a  post-mortem 
search  concerning  lands  in  Nutley,  belonging  to  one  Joan  Ogden,  of 
Ellingham,  Co.  Southants.  Nothing  is  said  of  relationship,  but  from  the 
fact  that  it  was  customary  for  the  nearest  relative  to  settle  the  estate  of 
deceased  persons,  and  the  two  sons  being  named,  it  is  a  fair  presumption 
that  Joan  Ogden  was  his  wife.

JOHN    OGDEN,    THE    PILGRIM 


Tif) 

HE  providential  opening  of  a  new  world  and  a  new 
era  in  governmental  matters  during  the  sixteenth 
and  seventeenth  centuries,  is  a  subject  of  deep 
interest  to  the  average  student  of  national  drift 
and  tendency.  No  great  epoch  of  national  life 
has  developed  in  a  day.  The  causes  leading  to 
any  important  revolution  in  thought  and  pro- 
cedure are  ever  far-reaching,  usually  beginning 
long  before  they  converge  to.  a  crisis  and  crystal- 
lize in  definite  and  determinate  action. 

The  causes  of  the  American  Revolution  began  before  the  first  embarka- 
tion of  emigrants  to  the  New  World.  The  "  Magna  Charta"  wrung  from 
King  John  of  England  in  12 15  had  been  the  entering  wedge,  but  it  was 
more  than  five  and  a  half  centuries  before  the  permanent  rupture  of  the 
Anglo-Saxon  race  occurred  under  the  reign  of  King  George  III.  It  was  not 
a  question  of  physical  suffering  of  the  subjects  of  the  English  crown,  but, 
like  all  revolutions,  was  one  deeply  seated  in  the  moral  sense  of  the  nation. 
The  superstitious  veneration  for  the  inherent  rights  of  the  sovereign  was 
giving  way  to  the  demands  of  an  enlightened  brain  and  conscience,  and  the 
deeper  belief  in  the  Fatherhood  of  God,  and  the  Brotherhood  of  Man.  The 
"Declaration  of  Independence"  was  written  in  the  hearts  of  the  Pilgrims 
and  their  fellow  colonists  long  before  it  was  spread  upon  parchment  in  1776. 
It  is  true  that  a  close  study  of  the  "good  old  times"  reveals  the  pres- 


9Ioljn  £D8tien>  €Ije  jaflanm 


ence  and  doings  of  many  selfish  and  unscrupulous  men,  and  the  Colonial 
period  thus  loses  much  of  its  pristine  fascination;  yet  the  sturdy,  self- 
poised,  resolute,  and  godly  Pilgrims  and  Quakers,  whose  righteous 
principles  and  lives  were  interwoven  in  the  American  fabric  of  civil 
and  religious  liberties,  are  to  be  held  in  the  highest  veneration  by  their 
numerous  descendants.  To  this  class  belonged  John  Ogden,  the  Pilgrim, 
who,  with  other  immigrants,  came  from  England  early  in  1640,  and  prob- 
ably landed  at  Southampton,  L.  I.,  where  he  took  up  residence. 

HIS     MARRIAGE     AND     EMIGRATION 

As  seen  in  the  preceding  chapter  on  English  Ogden  ancestry,  John 
Ogden  was  born  in  Bradley  Plain,  Hampshire,  England,  Sept.  19,  1609, 
where  he  married,  May  8,  1637,  Jane  Bond,  daughter  of  Jonathan  Bond. 
Three  children  were  born  to  them  in  England,  the  latter  two  being  twins. 
He  had  acquired  property,  and  prior  to  his  emigration  to  the  New  World, 
conveyed  Oct.  18,  1639,  to  Ezekiel  Howard,  also  of  Bradley  Plain,  a  garden, 
an  orchard,  four  acres  of  pasture,  and  two  acres  of  woodland,  with 
appurtenances. 

What  is  gleaned  of  John  Ogden 's  public  record  in  America  is  chiefly 
taken  from  "Southampton  Records,"  "Stamford  Notes,"  "Fairfield 
Notes,"  "Colonial  Records  of  Connecticut,"  "Lamb's  History  of  New 
York,"  "  Hatfield's  History  of  Elizabeth,"  and  "  Archives  of  New  Jersey." 
In  many  instances  the  original  documents  are  closely  followed  in  direct 
quotations,  this  being  thought  more  interesting  than  giving  the  various 
entries  a  more  modern  literary  dress.  The  data  will  also  be  given  as 
far  as  possible  in  chronological  order. 

AT     SOUTHAMPTON,    L.  I.,     1640 

The  name  of  the  vessel  in  which  John  Ogden,  the  Pilgrim,  and  his  fellow 
emigrants  sailed  is  not  known,  but  the  vessel  probably  landed  at  South- 
ampton, on  the  southern  shore  of  Long  Island,  early  in  1640.  The  first 
mention  of  John  Ogden 's  name  is  in  connection  with  his  taking  up  resi- 
dence at  this  place,  and  being  one  to  whom  was  granted,  Apr.  17,  1640,  the 
tract  known  as  Shinnecock  Hill,  which  adjoined  Southampton  on  the  west. 
He  was  a  leader  among  the  settlers  in  founding  the  town. 

A     PROBLEM 

A  perplexity  must  here  be  noted  that  is  met  in  the  early  colonial  records 
prior  to  1665,  concerning  two  contemporary  John  Ogdens.     John  Ogden, 


9Jol)u  SDgDctt,  Cl)c  $ilgrfm 


the  Pilgrim,  had  a  cousin  John  Ogden,  son  of  his  uncle  Thomas  Ogden 
(b.  1565),  and  who  was  nine  years  his  senior.  He  had  conveyed  a  messuage 
and  tenement  situated  in  Bramshaw,  England,  to  his  sister  Mary,  on  Mar. 
7,  1638,  about  which  time  he  emigrated  to  the  New  Haven  Colony,  thus 
coming  to  America  about  two  years  before  John  Ogden,  the  Pilgrim.  He 
probably  became  one  of  the  first  settlers  of  Stamford,  Conn.  He  was 
closely  associated  in  the  New  World  with  his  father-in-law,  John  Budd, 
whose  daughter  Judith  became  his  second  wife,  Apr.  19,  1638,  and  doubt- 
less soon  after  his  immigration. 

He  is  probably  the  John  Ogden  who  was  connected  with  the  building 
of  a  mill-dam,  as  recorded  in  the  Stamford  records.  In  Sept.,  1641,  the 
mill  was  sold  to  Thurston  Raynor,  "he  to  take  her  as  she  now  stands  for 
£74,  10s.  at  common  charge  according  to  a  bargain  made  between  John 
Ogden  and  Mitchell  for  building  a  dam.  " 

On  Dec.  7,  1641,  John  Ogden  was  granted  ten  acres  of  land  beside  his 
house  lot  at  Stamford.  During  the  same  month  he  paid  his  taxes  to  the 
town  at  the  rate  of  30s.  sd.  per  acre. 

On  Jan.  7,  1642,  several  men  claimed  damages  caused  by  the  mill,  among 
them  being  John  Ogden,  whose  claim  was  for  £1,  19s.  3d. 

This  John  Ogden  is  known  to  modern  writers  as  "John  Ogden  of  Rye, " 
because  he  became  associated  with  his  father-in-law,  John  Budd,  in  mill 
property  at  the  new  settlement  at  Rye,  and  took  up  residence  there.  Rye 
is  near  the  western  end  of  Long  Island  Sound,  on  the  mainland,  and  was 
settled  in  1660;  it  was  first  under  the  jurisdiction  of  Connecticut,  but  in 
1683  was  transferred  to  New  York,  being  now  in  Westchester  Co.  This 
John  Ogden  was  a  prominent  man  among  the  settlers,  and  a  man  of  great 
strength  of  character.  He  is  probably  the  John  Ogden  who  joined  with 
other  New  England  men  in  sending  a  petition  to  the  King,  1 665-1 667. 
At  General  Court  held  at  Hartford,  Oct.  8,  1674,  John  Ogden  was  named 
as  a  deputy  Governor  for  the  Colony  of  Rye.  The  following  year,  Apr.  20, 
1675,  John  Winthrop  was  made  Governor,  and  John  Ogden  assistant  Gov- 
ernor of  the  Colony  of  Connecticut.  In  1679  the  town  of  Rye  granted  John 
Ogden  48  or  50  acres  by  the  waterside  at  Fishing  Rock,  for  the  purpose  of 
building  a  house  and  wharf.  In  May,  1682,  John  Ogden  appeared  before 
the  court  in  Hartford,  and  was  granted  20  acres  of  land  for  a  pasture. 
He  also  brought  forward  some  matters  of  dispute  about  the  boundary 
lines  between  New  York  and  Connecticut,  and  was  the  bearer  of  a 
letter  from  the  General  Court  at  Hartford  to  the  Governor  of  New 
York,  relating  to  it.

9Jo^n  £DgDen,  C^e  pilgrim 


The  inventory  of  his  estate  is  exhibited  before  the  Court  at  Fairfield  by 
Judith,  his  widow,  on  Aug.  7,  1682,  the  same  year  his  cousin,  John  Ogden, 
the  Pilgrim,  died. 

Both  John  Ogdens  owned  property  in  various  places,  and  it  is  unneces- 
sary to  suppose  they  changed  residence  as  often  as  they  acquired  new  hold- 
ings. The  chief  difficulty  lies  in  keeping  the  two  men  separate  in  the  rec- 
ord entries  for  the  first  25  years  after  emigration,  and  at  which  time  John 
Ogden,  the  Pilgrim,  removed  to  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.  John  Ogden,  of 
Rye,  evidently  resided  in  southern  Connecticut,  and  chiefly  at  Rye,  during 
his  life  in  the  New  World,  while  John  Ogden,  the  Pilgrim,  made  Long  Island 
his  home  prior  to  his  residence  in  New  Jersey.  The  latter  is  doubtless 
meant  when  connected  with  his  brother  Richard,  or  when  he  is  referred  to 
as  John  Ogden,  Sr.,  in  distinction  from  his  son,  John,  Jr.  He  is  often  men- 
tioned as  "John  Ogden,  of  Southampton,"  or  of  "North  Sea"  or  "North- 
ampton," or  "of  Feversham,"  these  places  being  adjacent  in  Long  Island, 
and  under  the  same  colonial  jurisdiction,  and  in  which  places  he  owned 
property.  When  he  was  contemplating  removing  to  New  Jersey  he  sold 
his  "housing  and  home  lot,  etc.,"  in  Southampton  to  his  cousin,  John  of 
Rye,  who  made  it  over  to  his  son-in-law,  John  Woodruff,  the  following 
year.    This  will  appear  later  in  the  records. 

BUILDING     OF     CHURCH     AT     NEW     AMSTERDAM,     1 642 

It  is  evident  from  the  data  at  hand  that  John  Ogden,  the  Pilgrim,  and 
his  brother  Richard  were  the  builders  of  Gov.  Kieft's  stone  church  at  New 
Amsterdam.  Various  authorities,  and  chiefly  "Hatfield's  Hist,  of  Eliza- 
beth," state  that  John  Ogden  and  his  brother  Richard  built  it,  and  that  they 
were  then  (1642)  of  Stamford.  Possibly  the  brothers  saw  greater  induce- 
ments at  the  latter  settlement,  and  soon  after  landing  at  Southampton, 
threw  in  their  lot  with  the  Stamford  settlers,  for  it  would  be  natural  to  sup- 
pose that  the  two  brothers  remained  together  during  the  first  years  of  their 
American  residency.  The  "  Newark  Town  Records  "  refer  to  David  Ogden, 
the  son  of  John,  the  Pilgrim,  as  a  "stone  church  builder,  "  and  it  is  highly 
probable  that  he  learned  the  trade  from  his  father.  As  the  existent  author- 
ities name  John  Ogden,  the  Pilgrim,  and  his  brother  Richard  as  the 
builders,  we  give  the  following  condensed  article  concerning  the  erection 
of  the  church,  from  "  Hatfield's  Hist,  of  Elizabeth." 

A  contract  was  drawn  up  in  May,  1642,  setting  forth  an  agreement 
between  Governor  William  Kieft,  Gisbert  op  Dyck,  and  Thomas  Willet, 
of  New  Amsterdam,  Church-wardens,  to  build  a  stone  church  in  the  fort, 


3JoI}n  £>gDm,  €t)c  ^tlgrtrn 


72  ft.  by  50  ft.  and  16  ft.  above  the  soil,  for  the  sum  of  2500  guilders  (about 
$1000),  to  be  paid  in  cash,  beaver  or  other  merchandise;  if  the  work  was 
done  "in  a  workmanlike  manner"  100  extra  guilders  were  to  be  paid  the 
contractors,  John  Ogden  and  his  brother  Richard,  both  of  Stamford, 
Conn.  It  was  stipulated  that  the  latter  should  be  allowed  the  use  of  the 
company's  boat  to  ferry  the  stone  ashore  near  the  fort,  the  wardens  agree- 
ing to  carry  the  stone  from  the  shore  to  the  fort,  and  to  furnish  the  lime 
with  which  to  lay  them.  There  were  objectors  to  the  project,  who  claimed 
the  ' '  kerck' '  would  occupy  one-fourth  of  the  fort  area  and  shut  off  the  south- 
east wind  from  the  grist-mill  upon  which  the  settlers  depended  for  the 
grinding  of  their  corn.  The  Indian  wars  retarded  the  building  of  the  church, 
which  was  not  finished  in  1645,  but  in  due  time  the  steep  double-pointed 
roof  arose  over  the  walls  of  the  fort.  Gov.  Kieft  had  a  marble  slab  inserted 
in  the  front,  which  was  thus  inscribed: 

Ao.  Do.  M.D.CXLII 
W.   Kieft  Dr.  Gr. 
Heeft  de  Gemeente  Desen 
,  Temple  doen  Bouwen. 

Translated,  we  have:  "Anno  Domini  1642  Wilhelm  Kieft  Director 
General,  hath  the  commonalty  caused  to  build  this  temple."  A  century 
later  the  church  was  burned,  and  the  slab  was  buried  in  the  d6bris;  but 
when  the  fort  was  demolished  in  1789  to  make  room  for  the  Government 
House,  the  slab  was  recovered,  and  for  safe  keeping  was  placed  in  the 
Dutch  Church  in  Garden  St.,  where  it  remained  until  both  were  destroyed 
in  the  fire  of  1835. 

AT     HEMPSTEAD,     L.    I.,    1644 

There  was  restiveness  among  the  settlers  at  Stamford,  Conn.,  because 
of  the  limited  franchise  accorded  them  under  the  jurisdiction  of  the  New 
Haven  Colony,  and  after  three  years'  residence,  and  during  1644,  John 
Ogden  and  several  of  the  settlers  decided  to  try  their  fortunes  under  the 
Dutch  Government  on  Long  Island,  and  accordingly  removed  and  located 
at  Hempstead.  In  order  to  acquire  certain  rights,  privileges,  and  govern- 
mental protection,  they  made  application  to  Gov.  Wm.  Kieft  at  New 
Amsterdam,  who  issued  to  them  a  patent  to  "the  Great  Plains."  An 
abridgment  of  the  document,  giving  its  chief  features,  is  as  follows : 

Nov.  1,  1644.  William  Kieft,  the  Dutch  Governor  of  New  Netherlands, 
sells  to  Rev.  Robert  Fordham,  John  Stricklan,  John  Ogden,  John  Karman, 
John  Lawrence  and  Jonas  Wood,  their  heirs,  etc.,  or  their  associates  or  any 


gjotyn  Ogtien,  C^e  prtlgrim 


they  shall  join  in  association  with  them :  A  certain  tract  of  land  upon  and 
about  a  place  called  the  Great  Plains  on  Long  Island  from  the  East  River 
to  the  South  Sea,  and  from  a  certain  harbor  commonly  called  Hempstead 
Bay  and  westward  as  far  as  Matthew  Garritson's  Bay,  to  begin  at  the  head 
of  the  said  two  Bays  and  to  run  in  direct  lines  that  they  may  be  the 
same  latitude  in  breadth  on  the  South  side  as  on  the  North  side.  They  to 
enjoy  the  same  in  as  large  and  ample  manner  as  their  own  free  land  of 
inheritance.  In  case  the  above  patentees  "  settle  ioo  families  vpon  the  land 
inside  5  years  then  they  shall  have  power  to  build  a  Town  or  Towns  with 
necessary  fortifications.  A  Temple  or  Temples  to  use  and  exercise  their 
reformed  religions  which  they  possess,  with  the  ecclesiastical  discipline 
thereunto  belonging.  "  To  erect  a  body  politic  or  civil  combination  among 
themselves,  to  nominate  magistrates  not  more  than  eight  of  the  ablest  and 
best  approved  men  among  them,  and  present  them  to  the  Governor  (for 
the  time  being)  for  him  to  elect  and  establish  them  for  the  execution  of 
Government. 

RETURNS     TO     SOUTHAMPTON 

He  resided  at  Hempstead  but  a  few  years,  becoming  much  dissatisfied 
with  the  treatment  which  the  Dutch  Government  accorded  the  Indians, 
many  of  whom  were  put  to  death.  His  righteous  soul  abhorring  this 
unjust  treatment  of  the  aborigines,  he  removed  to  the  eastern  end  of  Long 
Island  to  dwell  among  his  own  countrymen. 

In  1647  he  obtained  permission  of  the  Southampton  authorities  to 
plant  a  colony  of  six  families  at  ' '  North  Sea ' '  (Great  Peconic  Bay)  about 
three  miles  north  of  Southampton.  Two  or  three  years  elapsed  before  his 
removal  and  planting  of  his  colony  at  "North  Sea,  "  which  later  was  called 
Northampton. 

One  of  the  enterprises  which  engaged  the  attention  of  John  Ogden  was 
whaling,  an  industry  in  which  he  was  interested  as  late  as  1668.  The  fol- 
lowing entry  from  the  "  Southampton  Records  "  probably  makes  mention  of 
the  first  whaling  company  on  Long  Island.  It  is  under  date  of  Jan.  30,  1650. 
"It  is  ordered  at  the  saide  generall  court  that  Mr.  Iohn  Ogden  Senior  of 
Northampton  shall  have  free  liberty  without  interruption  from  the  Inhab- 
itants of  Southampton  to  kill  whales  vpon  the  South  sea  [Ocean]  at  or 
within  any  part  of  the  bounds  of  the  saide  towne  for  the  space  of  seaven

persons  to  kill  or  strike  any  within  the  bounds  of  the  saide  towne,  this

he  or  his  company  doe  proceed  in  the  same  design  and  do  not  delay  but  do

as  alsoe  the  saide  Mr.  Iohn  Ogden  nor  his  company  shall  not  deny  the  townes

Ogden  or  his  company  doe  not  kill  in  the  design  a  whale  or  whales  within 
the  space  of  two  yeares  after  the  date  hereof  then  his  liberty  is  annulled 
and  to  return  againe  to  the  towne. 

"Witness:  Richard  Mills, 

Secretary." 


On  Aug.  21,  1654,  the  above-said  liberty  of  striking  whales  is  given  to 
Mr.  Odell  and  Mr.  Ogden  and  their  company  vpon  the  same  termes  with 
the  exceptions  following,  1st  yf  any  whale  come  within  Shinecock  bay  gut 
they  the  said  company  are  not  to  medle  with  them,  nor  any  other  whale 
or  whales  wherein  there  is  noe  sign  of  their  killing  them  at  sea,  but  they 
shall  belong  unto  the  town  as  formerly,  By  the  said  signes  of  said  company 
their  killing  any  whale  is  to  be  understood  to  be  by  harping  irons  vpon 
them  or   [two  words  gone]." 

Under  date  of  Sept.  3,  1650,  the  following  land  item  is  recorded :  "It  is 
granted  by  the  major  part  of  this  towne  that  Mr.  Ogden  and  his  company 
shall  have  Cow  Neck  and  Iefferies  Neck  [near  "  North  Sea"]  for  their  owne 
proper  right,  also  that  they  shall  have  for  their  planteing  land  in  either  or 
both  of  said  necks  three  hundred  24  acres,  prouided  they  settle  vpon  it, 
and  vpon  the  same  grant  they  are  to  have  all  the  meadow  betwixt  the 
brooke  by  the  Sachems  house  and  Hogneck  spring,  for  their  proper  right 
provided  it  bee  a  mile  from  the  sea  side,  vpon  these  conditions  following 
that  they  must  pay  to  all  common  rates  of  the  towne  at  the  rate  of  9  hun- 
dred pounds  according  to  the  taking  vp  of  those  men  that  dwell  there, 
2ndly  that  hee  shall  place  there  six  families  that  shall  live  there  and  have

the  towne  by  the  same  rule.  In  common  rates  as  aforesaid  is  alsoe  included 
the  ministers  meenes. " 

John   Ogden   was   made   Freeman   at  Southampton,    Mar.   31,    1650. 
"  Southampton  Aprill.    It  is  ordered  uppon  the  31st  of  March  1650  by  the

His  next  office  was  that  of  magistrate:  "Vpon  the  7th  day  of  October 
1650  being  the  day  of  Election  Mr.  Edward  Howell  was  chosen  magistrate 
of  Southampton  primus,  alsoe  Mr.  Thomas  Topping  secundus,  Mr.  Iohn 
Ogden  tertius. ' ' 

His  re-election  is  thus  entered:  "Vpon  the  6th  day  of  Octob  165 1 
being  the  day  of  election  were  chosen  by  the  freemen  at  the  General  Court

Topping,  tertius  Mr.  Iohn  Ogden. ' '  He  was  again  elected  magistrate 
"  October  ye  6  1659.  " 

Several  legal  actions  are  next  recorded:  "Mar.  10,  1651,  an  action 
of  tresspass  by  Richard  Mills  of  Southampton  against  Iohn  Ogden  Sr. 
defendant." 

Under  same  date,  an  action  of  trespass  is  entered  by  John  Ogden,  Sr., 
of  North  Sea,  plaintiff,  against  Richard  Mills  of  Southampton,  defendant. 

"Mar.  11,  1 65 1  jury  find  for  Mr.  Iohn  Ogden  in  both  actions,  assessing

and  rendered  a  decision  Nov.  3,  1 651,  in  favor  of  John  Ogden. 

Feb.  25,  1652.  "  Mr.  Stanborogh  plf  in  an  action  of  debt  in  the  behalf  of

On  Mar.  1,  following,  the  case  was  settled  by  arbitration. 

"At  the  aforesaid  Cort  Aprill  the  4,  1654  It  is  ordered  that  Mr  Iohn 
Ogden  Sen  &  Ionas  Wood  shall  bee  the  prizers  of  the  goods  and  chattells

On  Apr.  15,  1656,  "Mr.  Ogden  acknowledgeth  yt  Mr  Odell  his  lotment 
in  Sagaponack  devision  belongeth  to  him.  " 

On  Mar.  6,  1657,  Mr.  John  Ogden  was  one  of  six  men  chosen  at  town 
meeting  to  arbitrate  concerning  land  at  Southampton  which  was  claimed  by 
men  of  East  Hampton. 

Apr.  30,  1657,  John  Ogden  was  named  as  one  of  forty  men  who  were  to 
have  "half  a  pound  of  powder  a  peece  delivered  unto  ye  undernamed  per- 
sons out  of  ye  magazen." 

At  town  meeting  held  June  2,  1657,  it  was  voted  that  Edward  Howell 
and  John  Ogden  should  adjudge  unlawful  cattle  and  horses  in  the  ox  pas- 
ture and  turn  them  out.  They  shall  also  judge  if  fence  of  ox  pasture  is 
sufficient,  and  whosoever  is  found  defective  in  their  fence  shall  make  it

Under  date  of  June  5,  1657,  is  recorded:  "  Iohn  Ogden  hath  bought 
of  Samuel  Dayton  his  house  and  home  lot  and  five  acres  in  the  ten  acre

On  Jan.  10,  1658,  at  town  meeting,  it  was  granted  to  John  Ogden  that 
he  have  that  part  of  swamp  that  lies  against  his  lot  "in  Coopers  lott.  " 

At  quarter  court  on  Mar.  1,  1658,  John  Ogden  and  Samuel  Clark  are 
appointed  administrators  for  the  estate  of  one  Mark  Meggs.  On  June  22, 
following,  they  reported  at  court  that  they  had  "sold  at  an  outcry"  the 
following  items  belonging  to  the  estate : 

"  The  bay  mare  sould  for y£,      is.  od.

not  having  paid  for  house,  etc.,  the  court  ordered  that  he  pay  to  the  Mar-

May  5,  1658,  by  majority  vote  at  town  meeting,  John  Ogden  is  directed 
to  send  over  all  money  in  constable's  hands  to  discharge  the  town's  debts,

The  integrity  and  ability  of  John  Ogden  in  public  affairs  are  attested  by 
the  fact  that  he  sat  in  General  Court  as  Representative  from  Southampton 
in  May,  1659,  and  in  the  Upper  House  May,  1661,  and  at  subsequent  periods. 
He  is  many  times  mentioned  in  the  records  as  sitting  upon  juries. 

His  extensive  dealings  in  real  estate  are  indicated  by  the  following 
entries  of  the  ' '  Southampton  Records : ' ' 

"My  25  1659,  Mr  Ogden  acknowledges  that  hee  hath  sould  vnto  Ellis 
Cooke  and  Isaac  Willman  the  division  of  Sagaponack  at  mecox  that  was 
formerly  Goodman  Whites,  which  lieth  for  twe  acres. 

' '  At  the  same  time  Mr.  Iohn  Ogden  acknowledgeth  hee  hath  sould  vnto 
Ellis  Cooke  and  Isaack  Willman  one  allotment  of  Sagaponack  division 
numb  32  that  was  formerly  Isaack  Willman  allso  hee  acknowledgth  hee 
hath  sould  vnto  Ellis  and  the  said  Isaac  anothr  lott  that  was  fermely  in 
the  hands  of  Mr  Ioanes  at  mee  cooks,  in  numb  33,  also  anothr  lot  lately  in 
the  hands  of  Iohn  Iessup  &  Ionas  Bour  Numb  35,  also  an  acre  and  half 
lately  in  the  hands  of  Iohn  White  and  Ionas  Bour  lying  between  Edward 
Ioanes  and  Isaack  Willman." 

At  Town  Meeting  held  Nov.  25,  1659,  John  Ogden  was  one  of  twelve 
men  chosen  to  regulate  the  town  papers  and  writings,  to  "cashiere  those 
that  are  in  their  Iudgement  vnnecessary"  and  put  select  documents  in 
convenient  form  for  the  town's  use.  Also  to  select  all  laws  from  the  law 
book  at  Hartford  that  apply  to  the  town.     Each  man  was  to  forfeit  to  the 


9|ol)n  €>8&cn,  C^e  $tlgrtm 


town  2S.  6d.  per  day  if  he  did  not  have  reasonable  cause  for  his  absence 
while  the  board  was  sitting. 

On  Nov.  29,  1659,  at  Town  Meeting,  John  Ogden  contracts  to  put  a  floor 
and  seating  in  the  meeting  house  at  an  estimated  cost  of  £60,  the  cost  to 
be  taken  from  moneys  due  from  the  Indians  by  virtue  of  covenants  and 
court  orders  held  at  Hartford.  It  seems  that  £40  in  excess  of  the  afore- 
said amount  will  be  due  from  the  Indians  within  five  years,  and  John  Ogden 
is  to  pass  this  sum  to  the  town  authorities.  He  agrees  that  there  shall  be 
no  disturbance  with  the  Indians  in  collections,  and  that  they  shall  not  be 
held  for  debt,  or  be  dispossessed  of  their  property,  should  they  leave  it  in 
the  meantime.  The  Shinnecock  Indians  at  this  time  owed  John  Ogden 
£400,  for  which  Wyandanch,  the  chief,  stood  sponsor. 

Feb.  17,  1 66 1,  "It  is  ordered  that  Christopher  ffoster  and  Henry  Pier- 
son  shall  assist  Mr  Iohn  Ogden  or  Samuel  Cleark  to  lay  out  the  land  which, 
(according  to  a  vote  passed  or  order  made  Ian.  22,  1660)  was  granted  vnto 
the  Northsea  Inhabitants,  whoe  are  to  satisfy  the  sd  men  for  their  labour 
in  laying  out  ye  sd  land,  and  what  ever  the  sd  layers  out  act  and  doe  in

discretion,  it  shall  stand  authentick  forever  to  them  to  whom  it  Shall  in 
particular  belong. "

When  John  Scott  sold  property  to  a  company  Feb.  2,  1663,  it  was 
described  as  lying  west  of  Southampton  bounds,  and  as  having  been 
purchased  of  John  Ogden,  who  had  received  deed  for  the  same  from 
Sachem  Wyandanch,  May  12,  1659.  In  the  transfer,  John  Ogden  is  said 
to  be  of  Feversham.  Bridgehampton,  that  was  located  east  of  South- 
ampton, was  first  called  "Faversham"  or  "Feversham,"  after  a  town 
in  Kent,  England.  John  Ogden  possibly  for  a  time  lived  near  Bridge- 
hampton, and  so  is  called  "from  Feversham"  by  some  writers. 

Mar.  1,  1663.  "Mr  Iohn  Ogden  acknowledges  to  have  sold  to  Ellis 
Cooke  the  land  he  bought  of  William  Ludlam,  the  land  being  at  Mecocks, 
one  parcel  being  all  that  field  that  vpon  the  laying  out  of  that  division  lay 
betweene  the  highway,  next  the  millers  and  the  next  creek  on  the  east,  or 
southeast,  the  other  parcel  lying  on  little  neck,  on  the  west  side  of  the  creek 
which  is  on  the  west  side  of  Arthur  Howells  land,  and  was  sometime  in 
possession  of  Richard  Woodhull.

In  a  treaty  made  Feb.  1 1,  1663,  between  the  English  and  the  Shinnecock 
Indians,  the  latter  are  to  obey  English  laws,  and  be  privileged  to  take  up 
grievances  with  other  Indian  tribes.  The  Shinnecock  Indians  agree  to  pay 
the  £40  due  the  English  of  Southampton,  and  relieve  John  Ogden  of  said 
debt.  It  appears  the  Indians  did  not  pay  this  amount  as  agreed  by  treaty, 
and  on  Nov.  7,  1667,  John  Ogden  employed  Capt.  John  Howell  and  Henry 
Pierson,  his  attorneys,  to  collect  the  £40  from  the  Indians. 

"August  this  17  1663  This  present  wrighting  is  to  testifie  to  all  whom 
it  may  concern  that  I  Iohn  Ogden  of  Northampton  on  Long  Island  doe

When  John  Ogden,  the  Pilgrim,  was  past  54  years  of  age,  and  after 
having  spent  24  years  on  Long  Island,  he  evidently  determined  to  remove 
to  New  Jersey,  and  began  to  dispose  of  his  real  estate.  The  Southampton 
Records,  under  date  of  Apr.  12,  1664,  give  the  first  recorded  dealings  with 
his  cousin,  John  Ogden,  of  Rye,  and  read  as  follows: 

"Iohn  Ogden  of  this  town  [Southampton]  doth  acknowledge  to  have 
sold  and  delivered  to  his  uncle  [cousin]  Mr  Iohn  Ogden,  his  houseing 
and  home  lot  with  all  ye  land  lying  at  the  reare  thereof  and  allsoe 
his  fifteene  accres  lying  at  the  Long  Springs,  and  alsoe  the  priviledges 
to  a  fifty  pound  lot. ' ' 

Apr.  25,  1664.  "Christopher  ffoster  &  Henry  Pierson  are  appoynted 
to  lay  out  the  land  between  ye  neighbors  about  Iohn  Ogden  in  ye  rear 
devision. "

Sept.  7,  1665.  "Mr  Iohn  Ogden  [of  Rye]  doth  acknowledge  that  what 
land  or  houseing  or  privilidges  thereto  belonging  which  he  bought  of  his 
cousin  Iohn  Ogden,  hee  ye  said  Mr  Ogden  did  make  over  all  the  same  vnto 
his  sone  in  law  Iohn  Woodruff,  that  it  became  his. " 

Under  same  date:  "Iohn  Woodruff  Iun  doth  acknowledge  to  have 
sould  and  delivered  to  Robert  Woolley  all  that  housing  and  land  and  privi- 
leges thereto  belonging  which  Mr  Iohn  Ogden  procured  of  Iohn  Ogden 
of  Southampton,  and  ye  said  Mr  Ogden  made  over  vnto  him  the  said  Iohn 
Woodruff,  ye  said  bargain  being  vpon  Record  in  this  book. ' ' 

John  Ogden's  prominence  as  a  legislator  and  land  owner  is  shown  by 
the  leaving  of  his  name  to  different  localities.  Under  date  of  May  29,  1673, 
and  at  a  town  meeting,  it  was  determined  to  permit  all  owners  of  meadow 
land  to  fence  and  improve  their  property.  In  description  of  the  various 
lots,  No.  6  was  said  to  be  located  on  a  highway  running  to  the  beach 
by  "Ogden's  Pond."  "Ogden's  Neck"  is  another  lot  and  was  situated 
on  Shinnecock  Bay.  Ogden's  Neck  is  also  mentioned  July  27,  1708,  in 
connection  with  the  sale  of  adjoining  lots. 

The  final  disposal  of  his  properties  at  North  Sea  (Northampton)  and 
at  Southampton,  as  shown  by  the  following  entries,  closes  up  his  Long 
Island  affairs: 

Sept.  6,  1665.  "Mr  Iohn  Ogden  doth  acknowledge  to  have  imparted

JOHN    OGDEN    AT    ELIZABETHT0WN,    N.    J. 

It  is  presumed  that  John  Ogden,  with  other  English  settlers,  after 
spending  about  24  years  on  Long  Island,  saw  greater  possibilities  of 
material  advancement  by  transferring  their  interests  to  New  Jersey.  The 
preliminary  step  was  the  securing  of  a  patent  from  Gov.  Nicolls,  of  that 
province.  "  Hatfield's  History  of  Elizabeth  "  is  our  chief  authority  for  the 
further  record  of  John  Ogden's  public  life  and  doings. 

In  the  Elizabeth  Town  Patent,  granted  Dec.  1,  1664,  by  Gov.  Richard 
Nicolls  under  his  Royal  Highness  ye  Duke  of  York,  he  names  as  patentees, 
"Cap1  John  Baker  of  new  Yorke,  John  Ogden  of  Northampton,  John 
Baily  and  Luke  watson  of  Jemaico  on  Long  Island  and  their  Associates 
their  heirs  Execurs  adminrs  and  assigns  the  said  parcell  of  Land  Bounded 
on  the  South  By  a  River  commonly  called  the  Raritans  River — On  the 
East  by  ye  sea  wch  partes  Staten  Island  and  the  main,  to  Run  Northwards 
up  after  cull  Bay  Till  you  come  to  the  first  River  wch  sets  westwards  out 
of  the  sd  bay,  And  To  Run  west  Into  the  Countery  Twice  the  Length  of  the 
Breadth  thereof  from  the  North  To  the  South  of  the  aforementioned 
Bounds. "  The  patentees  were  to  pay  yearly  rental  to  the  Duke  of  York, 
open  the  newly-acquired  tract  of  land  for  settlers  at  once,  who  are  to  first 
ask  the  liberty  of  doing  so  of  the  patentees.  Said  settlers  were  to  be  assured 
of  all  privileges  secured  to  other  English  colonists. 

The  integrity  of  John  Ogden  and  his  associates  is  shown  by  the  fact 
that  they  first  secured  the  consent  of  habitation  from  the  Indians  and 
bought  the  Elizabeth  Town  tract  of  them  Oct.  25,  1664,  a  month  before  the 
patent  was  granted  by  the  English  Governor.  The  final  payment  of  ' '  four 
hundred  fathom  of  white  wampom"  was  acknowledged  Nov.  24,  1665,  this 
payment  becoming  due  a  year  after  entry  upon  the  tract.  Appended  to 
the  Indian  deed  is  the  following  receipt :  "Received  of  John  Ogden  in  part 
of  the  above  specified  foure  hundred  feet  of  wampum  I  say  Received  one 


'Jotyi  £>gDm,  Cl)c  pilgrim 


hundred  fathom  of  wampum  by  mee  the  18  of  August  1665  "  The  Sachems 
who  signed  the  deed  were  Mattano,  Sewak  Herones,  and  Warinanco,  of 
Staten  Id.  The  Indian  name  of  the  country  west  of  Staten  Id.  was  "  Schey- 
ichbi, "  while  the  Dutch  called  Newark  Bay  and  territory  adjoining 
"Achter  Kol. " 

John  Ogden  was  the  first  of  65  men  who  took  the  oath  of  allegiance 
to  King  Charles  II.  on  Feb.  19,  1665.  Among  them  were  his  sons  John,  Jr., 
David  and  Jonathan.  His  younger  sons  took  the  oath  later  upon  coming 
to  their  majority. 

He  was  settled  upon  the  Elizabeth  Town  tract  as  early  as  the  first  of 
Aug.  1665,  and  increased  his  holdings  that  year  by  buying  the  rights  in  the 
tract  held  by  Daniel  and  Nathaniel  Denton.  His  house  was  doubtless 
located  on  Point  road,  now  Elizabeth  Ave.,  and  near  where  Robert  Ogden, 
his  great-grandson,  and  Col.  Barber,  afterward  lived. 

Tradition  says  the  new  town  was  named  after  Lady  Elizabeth,  the  wife 
of  Sir  George  Carteret;  who,  with  John,  Lord  Berkeley,  were  granted  by 
the  Duke  of  York  in  1664  the  territory  included  in  the  State  of  New  Jersey, 
or  Nova  Ccesarea,  the  name  being  given  in  honor  of  Carteret's  administra- 
tion of  the  Isle  of  Jersey,  England.  The  proprietors  appointed  Philip 
Carteret  first  Proprietary  Governor.  When  he  arrived  July  29,  1665,  he 
determined  to  locate  himself  with  the  "Ogden  company"  and  make  their 
plantation  the  seat  of  his  government.  That  the  new  governor  soon  rec- 
ognized the  worth  of  John  Ogden  is  seen  in  the  fact  that  he  appointed  him 
Justice  of  the  Peace  Oct.  26,  1665.    The  commission  reads  as  follows: 

"By  Philip  Carterett  Esqr  Governour,

MADE    DEPUTY    GOVERNOR 

The  high  regard  and  confidence  of  Gov.  Carteret  is  further  manifested 
in  the  following  commission,  making  John  Ogden  a  member  of  his 
Council,  or  Deputy  Governor: 

"To  my  trusty  &  Well  beloved  ffriend

The  new  town  being  so  auspiciously  begun  on  the  broad  foundation  of 
fraternity  and  justice,  John  Ogden  laying  the  chief  corner  stone,  many 
colonists  were  soon  attracted  by  its  exceptional  privileges  and  advantages. 
A  number  of  settlers  at  Newbury,  Mass.,  lacking  sufficient  farm  lands,  sent 
a  deputation  with  instructions,  that  if  pleased,  they  should  secure  an  eli- 
gible location  for  a  town  upon  the  new  company's  tract.  The  deputies 
were  hospitably  entertained,  and  they  concluded  to  purchase  that  part  of 
the  Elizabeth  town  patent  lying  between  Raritan  and  Rahway  rivers. 
They  applied  for  two  townships,  for  which  Gov.  Carteret  issued  the  necessary 
permit  May  21,  1666.  The  deed  was  duly  executed  and  given  to  them  Dec. 
11,  1666,  by  Carteret,  Ogden  and  Watson,  representing  the  Associates  of 
the  Town.  These  latter  three  men  became  the  only  persons  entitled  to  con- 
trol and  convey  property  that  lay  within  the  original  "bill  of  sale"  from 
the  Indians  made  Oct.  28,  1664,  and  Nicholl's  patent  of  Dec.  1,  1664.  To 
this  end  the  Town  Meeting  voted  them  "the  one  moiety  or  half  part"  of 
their  purchased  possession,  the  consideration  expressed  in  the  deed  being 
£80  sterling,  which  more  than  reimbursed  the  Associates  for  their  original 
outlay. 

The  boundary  line  between  Elizabethtown  and  Newark  needed  adjust- 
ment, and  John  Ogden,  Sr.,  Luke  Watson,  Robert  Bond,  and  Jeffry  Jones 
were  selected  to  meet  the  commissioners  from  Newark  to  establish  the  line. 


gjolm  OgDen,  C^e  pilgrim 


They  met  for  this  purpose,  May  20,  1668.  The  happy  outcome  of  the  matter 
is  shown  by  an  affidavit  of  Joseph  Woodruff  of  Elizabeth  town,  made  July 
26,  1743,  before  Judge  Joseph  Bonnel,  of  the  same  place.  He  chanced 
to  be  at  Milford,  Conn.,  about  the  year  1699,  when  he  heard  Gov. Treat  say, 
' '  That  the  inhabitants  of  Newark  did  first  settle  under  the  Elizabeth  Town 
Purchase ;  &  did  allow  the  Newark  river  to  be  the  bounds  of  the  said  Pur- 
chase ;  &  said,  that  the  Elizabeth  Town  people  was  so  kind  to  the  Newark 
people,  that  they  could  never  reward  them  enough.  And  further  this 
deponent  saith,  That  he,  at  that  time,  heard  the  said  Governor  tell  after 
what  manner  the  Line  was  settled  between  the  two  towns;  and  that  it 
was  done  in  so  loving  and  solemn  a  manner  that  he  thought  it  ought  never 
to  be  removed;  for  he  (the  said  Governor)  himself  being  among  them  at 
that  time,  prayed  with  them  on  Dividend-Hill,  (so-called)  that  there  might 
be  a  good  agreement  between  them;  and  that  it  was  agreed  upon,  by  the 
settlers  of  each  town,  that  the  Line  between  them  should  stand  and  remain 
from  Dividend-Hill,  to  run  a  northwest  course;  and  the  Governor  said, 
that,  after  the  agreement,  Mr.  John  Ogden  (being  one  of  the  first  purchasers) 
prayed  among  the  people,  and  returned  thanks  for  their  loving  agreement.  " 
The  kind,  liberal,  and  devout  spirit  of  John  Ogden  and  his  associates 
in  the  above  instance  prompted  Mrs.  E.  C.  Kinney  to  write  the  following 
poem  in  1846. 

"DIVIDEND  HILL. 

"Pause  here,  O  Muse!  that  Fancy's  eye 

May  trace  the  footprints  still 
Of  men  that,  centuries  gone  by, 

With  prayer  ordained  this  hill; 
As  lifts  the  misty  veil  of  years, 

Such  visions  here  arise 
As  when  the  glorious  Past  appears 

Before  enchanted  eyes. 

"I  see,  from  midst  the  faithful  few 

Whose  deeds  yet  live  sublime — 
Whose  guileless  spirits,  brave[as  true 

Are  models  for  all  time, 
A  group  upon  this  height  convened — 

In  solemn  prayer  they  stand — 
Men,  on  whose  sturdy  wisdom  leaned 

The  settlers  of  our  land. 


"In  mutual  love  the  line  they  trace 
That  will  their  homes  divide, 

And  ever  mark  the  chosen  place 
That  prayer  hath  sanctified; 


gjot)it  €>gDcn,  E^e  pilgrim 


And  here  it  stands — a  temple  old, 

Which  crumbling — Time  still  braves ; 

Though  ages  have  their  cycles  rolled 
Above  those  patriots'  graves. 

"As  Christ  transfigured  on  the  height 

The  three  beheld  with  awe, 
And  near  his  radiant  form,  in  white 

The  ancient  prophets  saw; 
So,  on  this  summit  I  behold 

With  beatific  sight, 
Once  more  our  praying  sires  of  old, 

As  spirits  clothed  in  light. 

"A  halo  crowns  the  sacred  hill, 

And  thence  glad  voices  raise 
A  song  that  doth  the  concave  fill — 

Their  prayers  are  turned  to  praise! 
Art  may  not  for  these  saints  of  old 

The  marble  urn  invent; 
Yet  here  the  Future  shall  behold 

Their  Heaven-built  monument." 


MADE    BURGESS 


In  the  Legislature  constituted  at  Elizabethtown  May  26,  1668,  John 
Ogden  was  chosen  as  one  of  the  Burgesses.  In  order  to  carry  on  his  improve- 
ments, or  to  cancel  previous  obligations,  he  borrowed,  Oct.  9,  1668,  of  Cor- 
nelius Steenwick,  a  wealthy  merchant,  and  Mayor  of  the  City  of  New  York, 
£191  5s.,"  one  fourth  part  thereof  to  be  paid  in  good  Wheat  at  4/6  pr  Bushell 
one  fourth  part  in  good  drie  Ox  hides  at  6  stivers  pr  pound  dutch  weight 
One  fourth  part  in  good  merchantable  Tobacco  at  4  stivers  pr  pound  like 
weight  and  one  fourth  part  in  Good  Corn  fed  fat  Pork  well  packt  in  casks 
and  delivered  at  New  Yorke  at  Three  Pounds  ten  Shillings  pr  Barrell. " 
As  security,  he  mortgaged,  Apr.  29,  1669,  "a  Certain  Water  Mill  now  in  my 
Tenure  or  Occupation,  near  unto  the  Mansion  or  Dwelling  House  of  Gov. 
Carterett  in  Elizabeth  Towne.  " 

This  mill  was  located  on  Broad  street  immediately  west  of  the  stone 
bridge,  and  south  of  the  Presbyterian  Church.  The  mill,  and  the  dam 
across  the  creek  just  above,  were  doubtless  constructed  by  John  Ogden, 
Sr.     [See  Map.] 

At  this  time  whales  were  abundant  on  all  the  coast,  and  a  whaling  com- 
pany was  organized  at  Elizabethtown,  which  obtained  a  charter  from  the 
Government  Feb.  15,  1669,  granting  to  "John  Ogden,  senr.,  Caleb  Carwithy, 
Jacob  Moleing  [Melyen],  Wm.  Johnson,  and  Jeffry  Jones,  all  of  Elizabeth 


ORIGINAL  SETTLEMENTS    AT   EI.1ZABETHT0  W  N,  N.  J.

Town  and  their  companie  consisting  of  21  persons,"  the  exclusive  right, 
for  three  years,  of  taking  whales  along  the  coast  from  Barnegat  to  the 
eastern  part  of  the  province,  one  twentieth  part  of  the  oil  in  casks  to  be 
given  to  the  Lords  Proprietors. 

Gov.  Carteret  became  somewhat  imperious  in  giving  away  land  in 
Elizabethtown,  and  at  a  "Town  Meeting  2 2d  Jan'y,  1671,  Mr.  Treat 
and  Lieut  Swain  are  deputed,  to  Take  the  first  opportunity  to  Advise 
with  Mr.  Ogden,  or  any  other  they  see  Cause,  what  may  be  the  Safest 
and  Best  Course  to  be  taken  for  the  Town,  about  our  Lands  and 
Settlements  here." 

Gov.  Carteret  and  his  secretary  Wm.  Pardon  having  destroyed  the  rec- 
ords of  General  Assembly  of  Mar.  26,  1672,  they  found  the  atmosphere  of 
the  town  somewhat  dangerous,  and  fled  to  Bergen,  where,  on  May  28,  the 
refugee  Governor  convened  a  council  and  issued  a  Proclamation  to  the 
people  of  Elizabethtown,  charging  them  with  attempting  to  make  altera- 
tions in  the  Government,  and  of  a  tendency  to  mutiny  and  rebellion.  Capt. 
James  Carteret,  kinsman  of  the  Governor,  was  called  to  preside  over  the 
House  of  Burgesses  in  Elizabethtown,  and  issued  a  warrant  for  Secretary 
Wm.  Pardon.  The  warrant  was  served  by  Constable  Meeker,  but  his  pris- 
oner escaped  to  Bergen.  He  returned  to  Elizabethtown  to  read  the  Procla- 
mation of  Gov.  Carteret,  and  was  imprisoned  for  three  weeks.  On  June 
25,  a  warrant  was  issued  by  Justice  Ogden  requiring  Meeker  "forthwith 
to  assemble  four  men  of  good  report  and  with  them  to  repair  to  the  said 
William  Pardon's  house  to  attach  what  moveables  of  his  can  be  found." 
This  warrant  was  issued  because  Pardon,  as  the  Secretary  of  Assembly, 
had  failed  to  make  copy  of  the  laws  passed  on  Mar.  26,  and  to  deliver  the 
said  laws  to  the  Assembly. 

Gov.  John  Winthrop,  of  Connecticut,  being  personally  acquainted  with 
many  of  the  Elizabethtown  settlers,  wrote,  July  2,  1673,  to  Gov.  Sir  Geo. 
Carteret  in  London,  commending  the  characters  and  good  reputations  of 
the  contending  settlers,  that  their  cause  might  be  espoused  by  him.  Among 
those  named  in  Gov.  Winthrop's  letter  was  "  Mr  John  Odgden.  " 

MADE  SCHOUT  OF  ACHTER  KOL 

The  Dutch  having  retaken  New  York  by  force  of  arms  July  30,  1673, 
and  the  English  colonists  having  had  so  much  trouble  with  their  former 
Governor,  John  Ogden  and  other  deputies  from  Elizabethtown,  Newark, 
Woodbridge,  Piscattaway,  Middletown,  and  Shrewsbury,  petitioned  the 
Dutch  for  a  hearing,  upon  which,  the  latter  granted  the  colonists  all  their 


31otyt  £>gDen,  €^c  pilgrim 


former  privileges.  The  Dutch  Generals  and  Council  of  War  made  John 
Ogden  "Schout"  or  Sheriff  of  the  six  towns,  on  Sept.  i,  1673,  and  on  the 
same  day  he  and  Samuel  Hopkins  were  directed  to  take  an  inventory  of 
the  estate  of  the  late  Gov.  Carteret.    The  commission  reads  as  follows: 

" the  1  st  September  1673 

"The  following  is  the  election  and  commission  for  the  Schout  and  Secretary  of  the 
towns  at  Achter  Coll 

"The  Lords  Commanders  &  Honbl=  Council  of  Warre  of  New  Nederland,  residing  in 
fort  Willim  Hendrik  etz. 

"Whereas  wee  have  thought  fitt  &  necessarij  to  discharge  the  forme  of  Governm' 
late  in  practice  here  and  to  reduce  it  under  the  stijle  of  Schout  and  Scheepens,  wch  is  custom- 
arij  in  our  natieve  country  the  United  Belgick  provinces. 

"Know  yee  therefore  that  wee  bij  virtue  of  or  Commission  from  ye  High  &  mighty 
Lords  the  States  Generall  and  his  Serene  Highnesse  the  Prince  of  Orange  etz.  out  of  ye 
Nomination  presented  unto  us  bij  ye  deputies  of  Elizabeth  Towne  Wood  Bridge,  Shrous- 
burry,  New-Worke  Piscattewaij  &  Middletown,  have  elected  and  established 

"  Mr  John  Ogden  to  be  Schout  &  1  of  all  the 

Mr  Samuell  Hopkins  to  be  Secretary  j  respective  Townes  " 

On  Sept.  7,  these  two  men  complained  that  Robert  Lapriere  had 
removed  divers  goods  from  the  house  of  Philip  Carteret,  which  he  refused 
to  restore,  and  his  arrest  was  ordered.  Schout  John  Ogden  was  further 
ordered  to  summon  James  Bollen,  "late  Secretary  of  the  Province  of  New 
Yersey,"  who  must  give  up  his  papers  within  ten  days  under  forfeiture  of 
his  property.  Lapriere  and  one  John  Singletary,  charged  with  disobeying 
commands,  were  arrested  by  Schout  Ogden  and  sent  to  New  York.  They 
were  examined  on  the  9th  by  Council,  and  four  days  later,  John  Ogden 
being  present,  they  were  convicted.  Singletary  was  fined  ^5  and  put  on 
good  behavior,  and  Lapriere,  who  was  Governor  General,  was  convicted 
of  sedition  and  banished. 

On  Sept.  13,  1673,  the  Dutch  Commission  returned  to  New  York  and 
reported  that  on  the  nth  inst.  they  had  administered  the  oath  of  allegiance 
to  the  inhabitants  of  the  several  towns.  They  rated  "  Elizabethtown " 
at  "80  men,"  the  first  on  the  list  being  John  Ogden,  Sr.  On  Oct.  1,  the 
Council  of  War  sent  instructions  to  Schout  Ogden  and  the  magistrates 
to  preserve  public  peace  and  the  administration  of  justice.  They  required 
that  the  Reformed  Christian  Religion  be  maintained.  Power  was  given 
them  for  "laying  out  highways,  setting  off  lands  and  gardens,  and  in  like 
manner  what  appertains  to  agriculture,  observance  of  the  Sabbath,  erect- 
ing churches,  school  houses,  or  similar  public  works.  "  Some  of  the  Indians 
having  committed  depredations  in  the  neighborhood,  "Mr.  Ogden'-'  wrote 


Iol)n  OgDcn,  Z\)t  pilgrim 


to  Gov.  Anthony  Colve  Sept.  29th  [O.  S.]  for  instructions,  and  received 
in  reply  a  letter  dated  at  "ffort  Willem  Hendrick  14th  Octobr  1673"  [N.  S.]. 
In  this  letter,  Gov.  Colve  requires  Mr.  John  Ogden  to  summon  the  Indian 
Sachem  before  the  Governor.  "You  are  also  Required  to  send  hether 
bij  ye  first  opportunity  the  armes  &  other  goods  according  to  Inventorij 
formerlij  belonging  to  ye  Late  Gouvernrs  Carterett,  etc." 

VIRTUALLY    GOVERNOR    OF    NEW    JERSEY 

An  Assembly,  composed  of  "the  Schout  and  Magistrates  of  Achter  Kol 
to  make  laws  and  orders,"  was  held  at  Elizabeth  town,  commencing  Nov.  18, 

1673.  The  ordinances  were  few  and  simple,  and  mostly  pertained  to  morality 
and  religion.  The  English  settlements  had  rest  for  more  than  a  year.  "  The 
people  lived  on  good  terms  with  the  authorities  at  Fort  Orange,  and  were 
secured  in  the  enjoyment  of  their  lands  and  privileges.  Ogden  was  virtually 
Governor  of  the  English  towns  in  New  Jersey  and  the  government  was 
administered  very  much  after  the  fashion  of  New  England.  "  But  the  Dutch 
rule  soon  ended  by  the  treaty  of  peace  signed  at  Westminster,  Eng.,  Feb.  9, 

1674,  and  all  captured  territory  was  mutually  restored.  The  Dutch  were 
superseded  by  the  English  at  New  York  the  following  November. 

Capt.  Philip  Carteret  returned  to  Elizabethtown  from  England  Nov. 
1674,  being  absent  over  two  years.  He  came  in  the  same  vessel  with  his 
kinsman,  Col.  Edmund  Andros,  the  newly  appointed  Governor  of  New 
York,  arriving  Oct.  31,  1674.  Sir  Geo.  Carteret  was  now  sole  Proprietor 
of  East  Jersey,  being  confirmed  to  him  by  royal  mandate  June  13th.  A 
new  Patent  for  the  whole  territory  was  given  on  June  29th  to  the  Duke  of 
York,  by  whom  East  Jersey  was  reconveyed  on  the  same  date  to  Sir  Geo. 
Carteret,  who  was  to  have  sole  power  "  to  settle  and  dispose  of  the  country, 
upon  such  terms  and  conditions  as  he  shall  see  fit. "  This  basis  of  despotic 
power  gave  to  the  Governor  full  control  of  the  Legislature  and  deprived 
the  people  of  all  original  jurisdiction.  The  "Concessions"  were  reissued 
July  31st,  and  the  same  day  Capt.  Philip  Carteret  was  re-commissioned 
acting  Governor. 

He  came  armed  with  "Instructions  and  Orders"  from  Sir  George, 
declaring  the  grants  issued  the  colonists  by  former  Governor  Nicolls  null 
and  void,  and  requiring  all  settlers  to  apply  for  new  surveys  and  patents. 
Each  settler  was  required  to  apply  to  the  Surveyor  General  between  Apr. 
1st  and  May  15,  1675,  or  his  lands  and  improvements  would  be  declared 
confiscated.  So  distasteful  was  the  requirement,  only  one,  a  Vanquellin, 
the  Surveyor,  applied  within  the  time  assigned,  and  only  ten  more  during 


9Jo^u  €)gDeu,  Wqz  pilgrim 


the  latter  half  of  the  year.  ' '  Good  old  John  Ogden ' '  was  the  very  last  to 
make  application  for  a  re-survey,  and  he  doubtless  did  it  under  protest. 
It  was  as  late  as  Oct.  29,  1678.  Let  every  one  of  his  numerous  descend- 
ants be  devoutly  grateful  that  his  illustrious  ancestor,  John  Ogden,  dis- 
played more  manly  courage,  possessed  better  moral  fiber,  and  had  a  purer 
quality  of  patriotic  blood  than  any  other  man  in  East  Jersey. 

Gov.  Edmund  Andros  of  New  York  had  previously  received  a  com- 
mission, and  had  been  given  jurisdiction  over  all  territory  between  the  Con- 
necticut and  Delaware  rivers,  but  the  Duke  of  York  waived  the  claim  of 
Andros  to  said  jurisdiction  in  his  grant  to  Berkeley  and  Carteret.  But 
Lord  Berkeley  having  retired  from  the  concern,  and  Sir  George  Carteret 
being  dead,  Andros  wrote  to  Gov.  Philip  on  Mar.  18,  1680,  reminding  him 
of  his  claim,  and  ordered  him  to  desist  from  further  exercise  of  authority 
in  New  Jersey.  Andros  next  visited  Carteret  Apr.  7,  1680.  He  demanded 
the  surrender  of  Carteret,  and  issued  further  orders  "&  one  particularly 
to  Mr  Ogden  then  scherif  for  the  surrender  of  N.  Jersey."  The  six  towns 
refused  to  negotiate  with  Andros,  and  the  Assembly  at  Elizabethtown,  of 
which  "old  John  Ogden"  was  a  member,  declared  they  would  not  recog- 
nize his  authority  till  so  ordered  by  the  King. 

The  last  two  years  of  the  earthly  record  of  this  unusual  man  of  affairs, 
patriot  and  Christian,  are  missing.  The  promise  of  Scripture  had  been 
verified  to  him :  ' '  Thou  shalt  come  to  thy  grave  in  a  full  age,  like  as  a  shock 
of  corn  cometh  in  his  season;"  "  With  long  life  will  I  satisfy  him,  and  show 
him  my  salvation."  The  infirmities  of  age  doubtless  required  him  to  retire 
from  active  participation  in  the  affairs  of  the  Colony.  His  end  could  not 
have  been  otherwise  than  peaceful.  His  last  will  and  testament  were 
made  Dec.  21,  1681,  and  he  probably  died  in  May,  1682.  The  following 
panegyric  sums  up  the  life  of  this  remarkable  man,  and  is  not  too  strong. 
It  is  from  "  Hatfield's  History  of  Elizabeth,"  and  from  a  disinterested  pen: 

"And  now  'good  old  John  Ogden,'  whose  wanderings  for  forty  years 
had  justly  entitled  him  to  rank  with  the  '  Pilgrim  Fathers, ' — the  acknowl- 
edged pioneer  of  the  town,  in  whose  house  the  first  white  child  of  the  settle- 
ment was  born,  the  accepted  leader  of  the  people,  a  pillar  in  the  church 
and  in  the  State,  honored  and  trusted  by  all,  .  .  .  lies  down  and  dies; 
leaving  the  impress  of  his  political  and  religious  principles,  not  only  upon 
his  children,  but  upon  the  community  that  he  has  so  largely  aided  in  found- 
ing. A  man  he  was  of  more  than  ordinary  mark — a  man  of  sterling  worth ; 
of  whom  the  town,  as  well  as  his  numerous  posterity,  should  be  gratefully 
mindful.     He  was  called  a  'malcontent,'  and  regarded  as   'the  leading 


p.r  r-^yS-W 


a  ~~      '/-(vi'/y    (fon'iiS 


1ol)n  OgDcn,  €^c  pilgrim 


malcontent  of  Elizabeth  Town ; '  but  surely  the  man  that  was  held  in  such 
high  esteem  by  the  accomplished,  sagacious  and  pious  Winthrop, — the  man 
who,  both  at  Southampton  and  here,  had  been  an  honored  magistrate, 
loved  and  trusted  by  the  people,  and,  during  the  Dutch  rule,  the  virtual 
Governor  of  the  English  portion  of  the  Province,  is  not  to  be  ranked  with 
restless  agitators  because  of  his  persistent  opposition  to  an  arbitrary  gov- 
ernment. A  true  patriot,  and  a  genuine  Christian,  he  devoted  himself 
while  living  to  the  best  interests  of  the  town,  and  dying  bequeathed  to  his 
sons  the  work  of  completing  what  he  had  so  fairly  and* effectually  inau- 
gurated— the  establishment  of  a  vigorous  plantation  founded  on  the 
principles  of  civil  and  religious  liberty."

THE    WIFE    OF    JOHN    OGDEN 

Little  is  known  concerning  Jane  Bond,  the  wife  of  John  Ogden.  She 
was  the  daughter  of  Jonathan  Bond  of  England,  and  tradition  says  she 
was  the  sister  of  Robert  Bond,  an  intimate  associate  of  John  Ogden,  both 
in  Southampton,  L.  I.,  and  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.  We  would  naturally 
expect  that  a  man  of  intelligent  foresight  and  sterling  moral  worth  would 
select  an  estimable  and  worthy  helpmate.  In  his  will,  John  Ogden  refers 
to  her  as  his  "  Deare  and  beloved  wife  and  soe  hath  been  for  above  fowerty 
yeares"  (the  spelling  probably  being  that  of  Isaac  Whitehead).  Her  hus- 
band dying  in  May,  1682,  she  was  made  administratrix  of  his  estate  Sept. 
19,  following,  a  certified  copy  being  given  here:

"By  order  of  the  Goverr  Phillip  Carteret. 

Robert  Vicar  Secectae:" 

About  a  year  after  her  husband's  death,  and  on  May  14,  1683,  Jane 
Ogden  petitioned  Council  to  secure  to  her  the  right  of  300  acres  in  the 
Elizabethtown  tract. 

'Att  a  Councill  held  the  14th  Day  of  May  Anno  Dni  1683 
p'sent  The  Deputy  Governor  &  propr. "     [and  six  others] 

"The  peticon  of  Jane  Ogden  Widd  read  the  same  being  for  300  Acres  of  Land  in  Eliza- 
beth Towne  in  right  of  John  Ogden  her  late  husband  wch  shee  Alledges  to  bee  in  right  and 
pursuance  of  a  Towne  order  for  wch  John  Ogden  had  a  warr'  29th  Oct  1678 — vpon  inspec- 
con  of  the  Records  wee  find  noe  such  warr',  but  a  warr'  for  300  Acres  in  pursuance  of  the 
gen'all  Concessions — in  wch  respect  the  peticone'  is  mistaken  soe  the  Councill  cannot 
Answer  the  same  as  Desired" 

Again — 

"Att  a  Councill  held  the  26th  Day  of  May  Anno  Dni  1683" 
[The  Deputy  Governor  and  four  others  of  Council  being  present] 

"The  Peticon  of  Jane  Ogden  for  300  acres  of  Land  in  Elizabeth  Towne  for  her  husbands 
rights  according  to  Concessions  It's  ordered  that  it  be  referred  to  the  Deputy  Governor 
and  Surveyor  gen'all  to  examine  what  Lands  have  bin  laid  out  or  taken  vp  by  the  husband 
in  his  life  tyme — That  according  to  Concessions  she  may  have  her  just  rights" 

The  date  of  the  death  of  the  widow  Jane  Ogden  is  not  mentioned,  neither 
is  the  place  of  sepulcher  of  herself  and  her  worthy  husband  definitely  known. 
But  doubtless  their  sacred  dust  lies  beneath  the  rear  of  the  present  edifice 
of  the  First  Presbyterian  Church  of  Elizabeth.  The  first  meeting  house  was 
of  wood  and  of  an  humble  style  of  architecture.  It  was  replaced  by  a  new 
church  in  1724,  which  was  58  ft.  long  and  42  ft.  wide.  An  addition  of  16 
ft.  was  made  in  the  rear  in  1766.  This  church  was  burned  by  the  British 
and  Tories  on  the  night  of  Jan.  25,  1780.  Washington  spoke  of  it  as  "the

late  misfortune  and  disgrace  of  Elizabeth  Town."  The  erection  of  a  new 
church  was  begun  in  1784,  and  completed  in  1 789.  It  has  many  times  been 
extended  and  improved. 

It  was  the  custom  of  the  early  settlers  to  bury  their  dead  immediately 
in  the  rear  of  their  meeting  houses,  and  probably  the  first  two  or  three 
generations  of  the  settlers  of  Elizabethtown  are  buried  under  the  greater 
part  of  the  present  edifice.  It  is  therefore  reasonable  to  suppose  that  among 
them  lie  the  bodies  of  John  and  Jane  Ogden,  awaiting  the  resurrection 
of  the  just.  No  headstones  remain  as  memorials  of  their  eventful,  but 
successful  lives,  although  some  of  the  old  brown  slabs  removed  to  give 
room  for  the  additions  to  the  church  were  set  in  the  walls,  bearing  as  early 
a  date  as  that  of  1687.  But  their  monument  is  imperishably  located  in 
the  hearts  of  their  appreciative  and  loving  descendants, — a  monument 
more  enduring  than  that  of  marble  or  bronze.

i.  John  Ogden,  b.  Bradley  Plain,  England,  Sept.  19,  1609;  d.  Eliza- 
bethtown,  N.  J.,  May,  1682;  m.  Bradley  Plain,  May  8,  1637,  Jane  Bond, 
b. ;  d.  Elizabethtown,  N.  J., ;  dau.  of  Jonathan  Bond,  of  England. 

{For  biography ,  see  former  chapter.) 

When  Abraham,  the  Patriarch,  on  the  Plain  of  Mamre,  was  told  to  lift  his  eyes  to 
heaven  and  number  the  stars,  he  was  assured  that  his  descendants  snould  be  likewise 
without  number.  No  other  man  has  been  made  to  know  he  would  become  the  "  father  of  a 
multitude,"  and  that  all  nations  would  be  blessed  in  him.  But  John  Ogden,  being  also  a 
righteous  man,  had  he  been  given  the  eyes  of  prophecy,  could  have  looked  forward  to 
the  skies  of  progenial  descent,  and  been  privileged  to  see  a  multitude  of  worthy  de- 
scendants, among  them  being  many  stars  of  the  third,  second,  and  even  of  the  first 
magnitude.  The  promise  was  not  only  to  Abraham,  "I  will  bless  thee,  and  make  thy  name 
great;  and  thou  shalt  be  a  blessing;"  it  was  fulfilled  in  the  case  of  John  Ogden,  the  Pilgrim. 

The  contention  is  still  on  among  modern  critics  concerning  heredity ;  but  the  transmis- 
sion of  certain  qualities  of  blood  still  means  the  transmission  of  certain  mental  and  moral 
qualities  in  descendants.  It  is  true,  in  a  sense,  that  "all  men  have  an  equal  chance  in 
life  ";  but  he  who  begins  the  struggle  with  the  hereditary  characteristics  of  a  noble,  pure, 
unselfish,  and  strong-minded  parentage,  has  an  innate  capital  in  brain  and  heart  that  is 
lacking  in  other  men.  We  are  confident  the  foregoing  conclusions  will  be  abundantly 
verified  in  the  following  pages.

SECOND    GENERATION 

NUMBERS     2     TO     7     INCLUSIVE 


Children  of  John  Ogden  and  Jane  Bond,  his  wife   (Chart  1)  : 

John  Ogden,  Jr.,  b.  England,  Mar.  3,  1638;  d.  Nov.  24,  1702;  m.  Elizabeth  Plum 
[David   Ogden,  b.  England,  Jan.  11,  1639;  will  proved  Feb.   27,    1692;  m.  Eliza- 

Ibeth    (Swaine)    Ward. 
Jonathan  Ogden,  b.  twin,  Jan.  11,  1639;  d.  Jan.  3,  1732;  m.  Rebecca  (Wood?). 
Joseph  Ogden,  b.  America,  Nov.  9,  1642  (?);   d.  before  Jan.  15,  1690;  m.  Sarah 

Whitehead. 
Benjamin   Ogden,   b.   America,   circa   1654;  d.   Nov.    20,    1722,   in   69th  year;  m. 

Hannah  Woodruff. 
Mary  Ogden,  b.  America, ;  d. ;  m.  John  Woodruff,  2d. 

From  these  six  children  of  John  Ogden,  the  Pilgrim,  have  descended  from 
13,000  to  14,000  souls.  Over  10,000  have  been  charted.  While  the  book 
contains  but  4774  in  consecutive  numbers,  many  family  entries  are  necessarily 
closed  by  index  letters  after  the  children's  names,  and  female  lines  are  not 
carried  beyond  grandchildren  of  Ogden  mothers.  Besides,  several  family 
records  reached  the  editors  too  late  for  regular  systematic  entry,  and  these 
names  probably  increase  the  actual  number  of  descendants  named  in  the  book 
to  about  5500.  Of  the  conservative  estimate  of  13,000  descendants  of  John 
Ogden,  the  relative  numbers  issuing  through  his  six  children  are  about  as 
follows:  No.  2,  John,  1200;  No.  3,  David,  4000;  No.  4,  Jonathan,  4000; 
No.  5,  Joseph,  1400;   No.  6,  Benjamin,  1400;   and  No.  7,  Mary,  1400. 

Through  these  five  sons  and  one  daughter  of  "Good  Old  John  Ogden" 
flowed  a  strain  of  blood  that  assured  high  grade  of  thought  and  action 
throughout  the  nation.  Perhaps  ten  per  cent,  were  above  the  average  in 
the  scale  of  excellence,  and  were  in  some  way  prominent.  Of  the  learned 
professions,  a  remarkable  number  attained  high  degree  in  the  law,  a  number 
helping  to  frame  Colonial  and  State  Constitutions,  and  many  becoming 
judges  of  Supreme  Court.  That  rich  strain  of  blood  gave  New  Jersey  three 
of  her  Governors. 

From  the  ancestral  seat,  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.,  that  blood  flowed  north- 
ward, transforming  the  wilderness,  and  giving  Ogdensburg,  N.  Y.,  its  being; 
thence  through  Canada  back  to  John  Ogden's  native  shores,  where  it  blended 
with  notable  English  blood  in  legal  and  army  circles.  Westward,  that  blood 
pulsated  along  new  arteries  of  commerce  centering  in  the  great  metropolis  on 
Lake  Michigan;  named  post-villages  in  New  Jersey,  Pennsylvania,  Ohio, 
Indiana,  Illinois,  Michigan,  Wisconsin,  Iowa,  Kansas,  Nebraska,  Kentucky, — 
named  Ogden,  Utah;  Ogden's  Peak  and  Ogden's  Canon,  Utah.  That  blood 
flowed  southward,  and  produced  men  prominent  in  law,  legislature,  court, 
and  army, — blood  which,  alas,  was  spilled  on  both  sides  on  the  battle-fields  of 
the  Civil  War. 

The  women  have  been  likewise  gifted  and  noble,  and  the  strong,  rich, 
blood-tie  unites  all  of  the  great  family  in  a  common  heritage  of  worthy 
kinship  and  achievement.

THIRD    GENERATION 

NUMBERS     8     TO     31     INCLUSIVE 


2.  John  Ogdex,  Jr.   (John1),  b.  England,  Mar.  3,   1638;  d.   Nov.   24, 

1702;  m.  Elizabeth  Plum,  b.  Jan.   18,   1650;  d.  1702;  dau. 

of  Samuel  Plum. 

John  Ogden,  Jr.2,  and  his  two  next  younger  brothers,  twins,  were  born  in  England 
His  father,  John  Ogden,  Sr.,  was  one  of  the  immigrants  who  brought  their  families  to  eastern 
Long  Island,  probably  landing  at  Southampton  early  in  the  year  1640.  The  family  is 
supposed  to  have  soon  removed  to  Stamford,  Conn.,  where  they  remained  about  three  years, 
and  then  returned  to  Long  Id.,  being  in  Hempstead  in  1644,  and  again  at  Southampton  in 
1647.     From  this  locality  he  moved  with  the  family  to  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.,  in  1665. 

The  first  public  mention  of  John  Ogden,  Jr.2,  is  taken  from  Southampton  Records, 
bearing  date  Apr.  30,  1656,  and  in  this  peculiar  item:  "Mr  Iohn  Hoeell  doth  acknowledge 
that  last  winter  he  sold  a  young  mare  of  two  yeares  old  at  present,  vnto  Mr  Iosiah  Stam- 
brough;  and  Iohn  Ogden  Iunr  doth  acknowledge  he  did  through  mistake  tok  vp  the  said 
mare  and  marked  her,  with  a  hott  Iron  vpon  ye  neare  shovlder,  with  the  brand  marked 
which  is  this  signe  O.  witness     Henry  pIERS0N]  Sect  ., 

The  records  state  he  took  the  oath  of  allegiance  to  King  Charles  II.,  Feb.  19,  1665. 

The  spirit  of  the  man  is  displayed  in  the  first  mention  of  his  name  after  taking  up  his 
residence  in  Elizabethtown.  The  "N.  J.  Col.  Rec."  state  that  in  May,  1671,  Gov.  Carteret 
of  E.  Jersey  caused  much  disaffection  among  colonists  by  convening  a  special  court  to  try 
one  Wm.  Hacket,  captain  of  the  sloop  "Endeavor,"  for  illegal  trading  in  the  province;  the 
colonists  held  that  the  right  to  convene  a  court  belonged  to  the  General  Assembly.  The 
breach  was  made  the  wider  when  the  Governor  granted  a  lot  to  Richard  Michell,  a  servant 
in  the  Governor's  household,  the  colonists  believing  none  but  the  people,  in  town  meeting, 
could  say  who  should  be  associates  and  freeholders.  A  town  meeting  was  called,  and  "It 
was  agreed  by  the  Major  vote  that  Richard  Michell  should  not  enjoy  his  lot  given  him  by 
the  governor.  Upon  information  June  19,  1671,  it  was  agreed  that  there  should  some 
go  the  next  morning  and  pull  up  Richard  Michell's  fence.  A  Coppie  of  the  towne  record 
by  me.     Isak  Whitehead." 

The  fence  was  pulled  down  according  to  the  above  agreement  by  eight  persons,  viz. 
Wm.  Meaker,  Jeffery  Jones,  Luke  Watson,  Nicholas  Carter,  Samuel  Mash,  Sr.,  John  Ogden, 
Jr.,  Joseph  Meaker  and  Hur  Tompson.  A  special  session  of  the  grand  jury  was  called,  and 
they  were  indicted,  tried,  and  found  guilty.  Wm.  Meaker,  as  leader  of  the  riot,  was  fined 
£$  and  the  others  £3  each. 

The  Dutch  having  regained  New  Amsterdam,  John  Ogden,  Jr.2,  took  oath  of  allegiance 
Sept.   11,   1673,  as  did  many  other  freeholders. 

On  June  14,  1676,  he  obtained  a  patent  for  150  a.  of  land.  Upon  the  restoration  of 
English  rule,  those  who  had  sworn  allegiance  to  the  Dutch  were  deprived  of  their  rights 
by  Gov.  Carteret,  who  declared  that  patents  of  land  granted  by  Gov.  Nicolls  were  void, 
and  that  all  must  apply  anew  to  himself  within  a  year  from  notice  (July  31,  1674)  or  their 
lands  would  be  declared  forfeited.  Despite  the  bitterest  protest,  the  Governor  stood  firm 
and  they  had  to  submit  to  the  new  allotment.  John  Ogden,  father  and  son,  were  the  last 
to  apply,  and  then  under  protest. 


d)c  €)(jDcn  family 


John  Ogden  Jr.'s2  generosity  is  shown  by  the  fact  that  in  the  year  1678,  he  and  his 
brother  Jonathan  and  Jos.  Wilson  shared  the  honor  of  being  the  largest  contributors  to  the 
minister's  support,  £3  each.  In  the  year  1694  he  is  named  as  one  of  the  largest  contributors 
to  the  support  of  their  minister,  Rev.  John  Harriman. 

That  he  was  not  only  generous  but  an  able  and  representative  man  is  evident  in  that 
Elizabethtown  sent  John  Ogden,  Jr.,  and  Jacob  Mourns  as  their  deputies  or  representatives 
to  the  first  Legislature  of  New  Jersey. 

An  entry  of  Aug.  2,  1678,  gives  the  following  description  of  85  a.  of  his  land: 

"  Layed  out  for  John  Ogden  Jr.  at  Eliz*  Towne  a  hous  Lott  conty  4  acres,  In  length

In  all  85  Acres  English  measure" 

The  sale  of  the  old  homestead  of  his  father  "Good  Old  John "  in  Elizabethtown  is  shown 
by  the  following  record :  "John  Ogden  of  Elizabeth  Towne,  yeoman,  for  £30  sells  to  Samuel 
Whitehead  of  Southampton,  in  the  Co.  of  Suffolk  state  of  New  York,  cordwainer,  land  in 
Elizabeth  Towne  by  estimation  2  acres.  Bounded  South  by  highway  West  by  Mill  River, 
North  by  lands  of  the  said  Elizabeth  Towne  for  a  place  of  burial,  together  with  the  house

John  Ogden,  Jr.'s*  will  was  made  Nov.  23,  1702,  "  in  the  first  year  of  the  reign  of  our 
Sovereign  Lady  Anne,  over  England,  Scotland,  France  and  Ireland,  Queen  &c.  .  .  .  First, 
I  bequeath  my  soul  into  the  hands  of  God  yt  gave  it  and  my  body  (in  hopes  of  a  joyful 
resurrection)  I  commit  to  the  earth. "  He  then  proceeds  to  bequeath  to  his  daughter 
Jemima  Ogden,  his  "home  lott  and  orchard,"  and  all  his  "hay  lot  of  meadow."  Pos- 
sibly there  were  other  children,  and  a  former  wife.  After  giving  his  nephew  John  Ogden" 
of  Newark,  son  of  David  Ogden3,  deceased,  twelve  acres  of  plain  next  to  the  Newark  road, 
he  bequeaths  the  balance  of  his  land  in  Elizabethtown  to  his  daughter  Jemima,  also  all 
his  personal  property,  after  debts  and  funeral  charges  are  duly  paid.  He  names  his  brothers 
Jonathan  and  Benjamin  Ogden  and  John  Plum  as  executors. 

He  probably  died  the  day  after  making  his  will,  which  was  proved  the  day  following. 

Elizabeth  Plum,  wife  of  John  Ogden,  Jr.=,  was  dau.  of  Samuel  Plum,  of  Branford, 
Conn.,  and  afterward  of  Newark,  N.  J.,  and  gr.  dau.  of  John  Plum,  of  Dorchester,  Mass.,

of  Wethersfield,  Conn.,  later,  and  finally  of  Branford,  Conn.  Before  deputies  were  intro- 
duced into  Connecticut,  John  Plum  was  a  chief  officer.  He  was  a  representative  in  1641 
and  twice  afterward.     He  d.  before   1648. 

Samuel  Plum  in  his  will,  dated  1703,  mentions  his  grandchild  Jemima  Ogden  as  under  age.

Josiah  Ward. 

David  Ogden3,  as  said  of  his  brother  John,  Jr.3,  was  born  in  England.  He  was  twin  to 
his  brother  Jonathan,  and  came  to  eastern  Long  Island  early  in  1640,  living  with  the  family 
at  South-  or  Northampton,  Long  Island,  until  the  family  removed  to  Elizabethtown, 
N.  J.,  in  1665.  He  was  twenty-six  years  old  at  the  latter  date,  and  is  in  that  year  named 
as  one  of  the  original  Associates  of  Elizabethtown.  He  had  taken  oath  of  allegiance  to 
the  English  government  of  New  York  on  Feb.  19,  1665,  probably  while  on  Long  Id.,  as  the 
family  settled  at  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.,  about  the  middle  of  that  year. 

The  "Newark  Town  Records"  of  1670  state  that  nearly  all  the  trades  and  callings 
necessary  to  the  convenience  and  comfort  of  the  colony  were  represented;  among  them  is 
mentioned  "a  stone  church  builder,  David  Ogden." 

On  Sept.  11,  1673,  he  took  oath  of  allegiance  to  the  Dutch  government  of  New 
Amsterdam. 

He  applied  for  a  survey  of  120  acres,  Apr.  27,  1676,  and  about  that  time  removed  to 
Newark,  N.  J. 

The  Newark  Records  have  this  peculiar  entry  of  Nov.  24,  1679:  "It  is  agreed  that 
two  men  in  each  Quarter  shall  be  appointed,  to  look  after  the  carrying  in  of  Mr  Piersons 
Wood  for  this  Year,  and  take  Care  that  it  be  done  seasonably.  And  also  to  see  that  every 
one  as  is  yet  behind  for  the  last  Year,  do  first  carry  thier  load;  and  for  thier  Pains  and  Care 
shall  be  exempted  from  thier  Load  of  Wood.  Mr  Johnson  and  George  Day  for  thier  Quarter. 
Mr  Kitchel  and  David  Ogden  for  thier  Quarter,  Deacon  Lawrence  and  John  Ward,  Turner, 
for  thier  Quarter,  and  Joseph  Walters  and  Thomas  Pierson,  Junior,  for  thier  Quarter  are 
chosen — every  Quarter  to  go  out  when  the  Men  see  Cause  to  call." 

At  a  Town  Meeting  held  Jan.  1,  1679,  David  Ogden3  and  others  were  chosen  Town's 
Men  for  that  year,  "having  the  same  Power  as  others  formerly."  He  was  elected  again 
by  the  Town  Meeting  held  Jan.  4,  1680,  at  which  meeting  he  was  allotted  one  of  the  gates 
in  the  common  fence  to  keep  in  repair,  instead  of  his  proportion  of  the  common  fence 
(this  appears  to  be  equal  to  maintaining  seven  rods  of  fence). 

At  Town  Meeting  held  Dec.  4,  1682,  "Joseph  Walters  and  David  Ogden  are  chosen 
to  go  to  each  Man  that  stands  indebted  to  the  Town  in  the  Treasurers  Book,  and  make 
Demand  thereof,  or  desire  them  to  reckon  with  the  Treasurer  within  a  Weeks  Time;  and 
if  they  have  neither  Meat,  nor  Corn,  to  pay,  the  Treasurer  doth  engage  to  putt  them  in  a 
Way  to  pay  their  Debts  with  Timber;  but  if  they  will  not  pay  nor  reckon,  then  the  Con- 
stable shall  come  with  a  Warrant  and  distrain  for  it." 

The  following  resolution  was  passed  at  Town  Meeting  held  Jan.  1,  1683;  "Whereas 
there  is  an  Order  made  by  Vote  the  21  of  March  1675-6  for  an  Orderly  attendance  at  Town 
Meetings,  and  for  Want  of  Execution  many  are  remiss  in  their  Attendance,  by  which  means 

43 


€l)c  £>8&cn  flmxily 


Town  Business  is  much  hindered,  and  some  as  do  attend  are  much  damnified  by  loosing 
thier  Time,  etc."  it  was  agreed  that  if  three  fourths  of  the  planters  should  subscribe,  they 
would  impose  a  fine  for  "late  Coming,  total  Absence,  or  irregular  going  away  before  the 
Meeting  be  dismissed."  This  order  was  that  "Twenty  four  Hours  shall  be  accorded  legal 
Warning,  and  if  any  Man  doth  not  come  to  the  Place  of  Meeting  to  answer  to  his  Name 
at  the  Second  Beat  of  the  Drum,  shall  be  fined  6d. "  Lacking  a  satisfactory  excuse,  the 
penalty  for  a  whole  day's  absence  was  half  a  crown,  a  half  day  isd.,  and  for  leaving  the 
meeting  without  leave  2s.     David  Ogden3  was  one  that  signed. 

Town  Meeting,  Jan.  9,  1687-8:  "It  is  fully  and  unanimously  consented  to,  and  agreed 
upon  by  every  Planter  now  present,  all  being  called  by  Name;  that  they  will  from  Time 
to  Time  pay  or  cause  to  be  paid  yearly,  in  their  full  Proportion  equally,  in  a  Rate  that  may 
be  agreed  on  by  the  Major  Part  of  the  Town,  to  the  Maintainance  and  Allowance  now  agreed 
upon  for  the  upholding  and  preaching  of  the  Word  in  our  Town;  and  Eighty  Pounds  by 
the  Year  is  agreed  upon  to  be  allowed  to  the  present  Minister,  with  his  firewood,  and  to  be 
Rate  free.  "  No  man  was  to  be  liable  for  the  failure  of  another  to  pay  his  proportion.  David 
Ogden  was  one  of  the  signers. 

Elizabeth  Swaine,  wife  of  David  Ogden3,  was  of  English  descent.  Her  grandfather, 
William  Swaine,  Gent.,  of  London,  came  to  America  in  the  "Elizabeth  and  Anne, "  arriving 
at  Boston  in  1635.  He  was  a  Representative  to  the  General  Court  of  Mass.  in  1636,  was 
Judge  from  1637  to  1640.  and  removed  to  Wethersfield,  Conn.,  in  1640.  He  was  Repre- 
sentative to  the  General  Court  of  Conn.  164 1-3,  thence  removed  to  Branford  in  1644, 
and  was  Deputy  Governor  of  Conn,  that  year.  He  had  two  sons,  Daniel  and  Capt.  Samuel, 
the  latter  removing  to  Newark  in  1665,  and  died  there  before  1685.     His  will  is  dated  1682. 

His  daughter,  Elizabeth  Swaine,  was  first  married  to  her  cousin,  Josiah  Ward.  She 
was  his  promised  wife  at  the  time  the  Branford  colony  came  to  Newark,  and  is  said  to  have 
had  the  honor  of  being  the  first  to  land.  Being  among  the  first  settlers  of  Newark,  she  was 
buried  in  their  first  burying  ground,  on  Broad  street,  nearly  opposite  the  present  old  cemetery 
beside  the  depot  of  the  Central  R.  R.  of  N.  J.  Some  years  ago  the  gravestones  were  re- 
moved from  that  site  by  the  city  authorities  and  placed  around  the  sides  of  a  vault  in  Fair- 
mount  Cemetery,  over  which  is  a  large  zinc  monument.  On  one  face  of  this  is  a  tablet 
showing  a  boat  by  the  shore  and  a  man  assisting  a  lady  to  step  ashore.  This  is  said  to 
commemorate  the  landing  of  the  first  settlers,  the  first  to  land  being  Elizabeth  Swaine. 
After  the  death  of  her  first  husband,  Josiah  Ward,  she  became  the  wife  of  David  Ogden. 
It  has  been  erroneously  recorded  that  she  died  in  1691.  for  the  old  town  book  of  Newark 
recites  a  deed  of  land  sold  by  her  Jan.  1705-6,  which  she  inherited  from  her  father,  Samuel 
Swaine. 

The  following  deed  was  given  Elizabeth  Ogden  by  the  East  Jersey  Proprietors,  but 
does  not  state  the  number  of  acres: 

"This  indenture  &c  made  the  twentie  Eight  day  of  March  Anno  Dom  1698  Between 
the  Proprietors  of  the  Province  of  East  New  Jersey  &  Elizabeth  Ogden  widow  of  David 
Ogden  late  of  Newark  Dec'sd.  The  Proprietors  sell  to  Elizabeth,  her  heirs  &c  In  right 
of  her  father  Capt  Samuel  Swain  late  of  Newark  Dec'sd  a  tract  of  land  in  the  town  of  Newark

Sept.  11,  1723. 

Jonathan  Ogden4  was  born  twin  to  his  brother  David3. 

The  only  mention  of  his  name  in  the  "Southampton  Records"  bears  date  Oct.  21,  1664, 
at  which  time  he  witnesses  deed  of  John  Davis  to  John  Oldfield,  a  fifty  pound  commonage. 
He  removed  with  the  family  to  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.,  in  1665,  and  was  one  of  the  original 
Associates.  He  took  oath  of  allegiance  to  King  Charles  II.,  Feb.  19,  1665,  and  was  then 
called  one  of  the  "5  full  grown  boys"  of  Good  Old  John. 

His  house  lot  is  thus  described:  "Layed  out  for  Jonathan  Ogden  at  Eliz.  Towne  a 
house  Lott  Wth  an  Adition  conty  6  acres  in  Length  1 5  &  in  bredth  4  Chane  Bounded  on  the 
S.  E.  by  Joseph  Ogden  N.  E.  N.  W.  and  S.  W.  by  highways."  He  also  had  22  a.  of  upland 
in  form  of  a  triangle,  bounded  by  the  Governor's  and  Benj.  Parkis'  land;  also  84  a.  "Lying 
in  plaine"  bounded  by  Benj.  Parkis',  Leonard  Headley's  and  Isaac  Whitehead's  land,  and 
the  Mill  brook;  also  14  a.  of  meadow  in  two  plots,  on  the  Creek  and  on  Great  Island;  in 
all  126  a.  English  measure.  All  this  land  was  granted  by  Philip  Carteret,  Governor,  in  the 
name  of  Sir  George  Carteret,  Baronet,  and  given  under  seal  of  the  Province  Nov.  10,  1678. 

Probably  in  Dec,  1667,  he  joined  with  others  in  petitioning  the  Governor  and  Council 
to  have  their  lands  laid  out  to  them  according  to  agreement  made  with  the  inhabitants,  with 
consent  of  the  Governor,  saying  that  unless  it  be  done  "we  do  not  see  how  we  can  possibly 
subsist  in  th  Town,  but  shall  be  forced  to  look  out  somewhere  else  for  a  livelihood." 

Jonathan  took  the  oath  of  allegiance  to  the  Dutch  government  of  New  York  Sept. 
11,  1673. 

On  June  14,  1676,  he  applied  to  the  Surveyor  General,  or  his  deputy,  asking  that  120  a. 
of  land  be  laid  out  to  him. 

He  was  appointed  one  of  the  overseers  of  his  father's  will  on  Nov.  21,  1681,  and  in  1702 
swears  that  he  "hath  safely  kept  it  ever  since  that  time  till  now." 

In  1692  he  was  receiver  of  taxes  for  Essex  Co.,  N.  J. 

The  colonists  being  aggrieved  by  the  English  authorities,  in  Sept.  1693  tne  old  and  new 
Associates  petitioned  the  King  that  the  lands  they  had  been  granted  and  had  enjoyed 
for  nearly  30  years  "ought  according  to  Law,  Reason  and  justice,  Still  to  enjoy  the  same." 
Jonathan  Ogden4  was  one  of  the  petitioners. 

That  he  was  a  zealous  churchman  is  indicated  by  the  fact  that  in  the  year  1678  and  later, 
with  his  brother  John,  he  is  named  as  a  liberal  contributor  to  the  minister's  support.  In 
1 691  he  is  called  Deacon  Jonathan  Ogden,  and  is  again  named  as  one  of  the  largest  con- 
tributors. 

The  civil  affairs  of  that  early  day  were  adjusted  slowly;  clashes  of  authority  occurred, 
and  it  was  quite  usual  for  outraged  Justice  to  assert  herself.  In  each  of  these  troubles  the 
case  was  more  likely  a  matter  of  principle  than  a  violation  of  law  and  order;  the  best  men 
often  took  the  initiative  in  forcibly  righting  wrong.    There  is  nothing  surprising,  therefore, 

45 


Stye  €>gDcn  tfamtty 


when  we  read  that  Jonathan  Ogden4  and  many  others  were  indicted  May  13,  1699,  for 
breaking  open  the  jail  at  Woodbridge  and  releasing  Lewis  Morris  and  George  Willcocks. 

On  Dec.  26,  1699,  Jonathan  Ogden4  was  one  of  the  assistants  to  John  Harriman  who 
had  been  chosen  Surveyor  "to  Lay  out,  Divide  and  Equally  assise  all  lands  and  meadows 
within  the  whole  Bounds  and  purchase  of  Elizabeth  Town,  to  every  one  Interested  therein 
by  Right  of  purchase  under  the  honorable  General  Richard  Nicholls,  their  Several  &  Re- 
pective  parts  and  shares  of  the  whole." 

Record  is  again  made  of  trouble  Sept.  12,  1700.  Jonathan  Ogden4,  Jonathan  Ogden, 
Jr.,  Benjamin  Ogden  and  many  others  from  Elizabethtown  are  indicted  for  riotously 
taking  the  keys  from  the  sheriff:  "The  Complainte  of  the  Sheriffe  at  ye  time  and  day 
aforesaid.  That  he  was  satt  upon  by  severall  men  of  Elizabeth  Towne  &  forceablely  Robbed 
of  ye  Keys  of  the  Prisson,  &  the  prissoner  thereupon  Imediately  Taken  out  of  his 
Cusstody." 

There  was  so  much  dissatisfaction  with  the  administration  of  colonial  affairs,  Jonathan 
Ogden4  and  apparently  all  the  heads  of  families  in  Elizabethtown  petitioned  the  King  to 
be  taken  under  his  immediate  government  "should  the  Proprietors  not  appoint  a  suitable 
person  as  Governor."  This  petition  was  transmitted  in  a  letter  of  Mr.  R.  Yard,  Sec'y  of 
the  Lords  Justices,  July  17,  1701. 

At  a  court  in  Burlington,  Dec.  19,  1700,  Mr.  Regnier  brought  two  writs  of  error  to 
remove  two  causes,  one  in  the  name  of  Jonathan  Ogden4,  and  the  other  in  the  name  of 
Benjamin  Ogden;    both  were  refused. 


Certain  town  books  being  lost  or 
destroyed,  on  Novemb.  18,  1729,  Jonathan 
Ogden4  with  the  other  Associates  agreed 
to  allow  the  "newbook"  to  be  regarded  as 
a  "Lawful  Record  of  Surveys  and  Con- 
veyances." 

He  made  his  will  July  2,  1731,  and 
names  his  son  Robert,  son  Samuel  dec'd, 
gr.  son  John,  gt.  gr.  son  Jonathan,  youngest 
son  of  his  gr.  son  Jonathan,  dec'd;  also 
his  gr.  son  Samuel,  and  gt.  gr.  children 
Sarah  Griffmg  and  Rebecca  Whitehead. 

He  d.  Jan.  3,  1732,  aged  93  years,  and 
was  buried  at  Elizabeth,  N.  J.  His  will 
was  probated  Jan.  9,  1732. 

Nothing  is  known  of  his  wife  Rebekah 
other  than  what  is  shown  on  her  tomb- 
stone. Her  maiden  name  is  believed  to 
have  been  Wood.

m. Sarah  Whitehead,  b. ;  d. ;  dau.  of  Isaac  Whitehead. 

Joseph  Ogdens  is  named  in  "  Hatfield's  Hist.  Elizabeth"  as  one  of  the  "five  full  grown 
boys"  of  John  Ogden  who  came  with  their  father  to  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.,  in  1665,  being 
fourth  in  the  list.  For  probable  birthdate,  see  under  No.  77,  John  Ogden,  p.  76.  About 
Dec.,  1667,  Joseph  and  Jonathan  Ogden  and  many  others  petitioned  the  Governor  and 
Council  to  have  their  lands  laid  out  to  them  "according  to  the  Agreements  made  by  the 
inhabitants  and  consent  of  the  Governor  with  them,  as  may  more  fully  appear  in  the  Town 
Records." 

On  Oct.  27,  1676,  Joseph  applied  for  his  allotment  of  90  a.  of  land  according  to  the 
concessions,  and  upon  this  date  Gov.  Carteret  granted  a  warrant  for  the  same.  Action  was 
delayed,  for  on  May  14,  1683,  Joseph  petitioned  the  Council  for  the  go  a.  which  he  had  form- 
erly "pitcht  upon."  The  record  then  states,  "It  is  ordered  that  Joseph  Ogden  give  an 
accompt  to  this  board  wherefore  the  late  Surveyor  gen'all  Executed  not  a  Warr'  of  this 
quantity  of  Land  the  27th  Oct.  1676  And  alsoe  of  the  Land  he  pitches  upon  that  the  Councell 
may  give  their  further  resolution  in  the  p'mises."  Later,  July  14,  1684,  the  Surveyor  General 
was  directed  to  "lay  out  and  survey  unto  the  said  Joseph  Ogden  Ninety  acres  of  Upland 
and  Meadow  in  proportion." 

In  1682  he  is  named  as  one  of  the  overseers  of  his  father,  John  Ogden's  will. 

Sarah  (Whitehead)  Ogden  was  dau.  of  Isaac  Whitehead.  She  was  appointed  Jan. 
15,  1690,  administratrix  of  her  husband  Joseph  Ogden's  estate.  She  had  four  husbands. 
She  is  named  on  Dec.  31,  1702,  as  the  widow-  of  William  Brown,  of  Elizabethtown.  In  the 
latter's  will,  dated  Dec.  10,  1702,  he  makes  bequests  to  his  "sons-in-law"  (step-sons)  Joseph 
and  Isaac  Ogden,  and  gives  a  large  share  of  his  property  to  "my  loving  and  dearly  beloved 
wife  Sarah."  She  next  m.  Francis  Sayer,  and  upon  his  decease  was  appointed  Nov.  6, 
1708,  administratrix  of  his  estate.  A  receipt  found  among  the  "Burnet  Papers"  reads: 
"1705  Isaac  Ogden  son-in-law  of  Francis  Sayer  receives  from  Francis  Sayer  his  share  and 
portion  of  the  estate  of  his  father  Joseph  Ogden."  The  "Burnet  Papers"  also  say  that 
Sarah  was  wife  of  Azariah  Crane  Mar.  3,  17 20-1.

"Hatfield's  Hist.  Elizabeth"  makes  this  early  mention  of  Benjamin  Ogden6:  "Two 
more  sons  of  John  Ogden,  Joseph  and  Benjamin,  had  come  to  years."  After  speaking  of 
other  young  residents,  it  is  stated,  "these  all  had  grown  to  men's  estate  since  1665."  This 
entry  is  made  in  1673,  showing  that  Benjamin  was  about  13  yrs.  of  age  when  he  came  with 
his  father  to  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.,  in  1665.  On  Sept.  11,  1673,  he  was  one  of  the  Elizabeth- 
town  settlers  who  swore  allegiance  to  the  Dutch. 

A  council  held  at  Elizabethtown,  Nov.  27,  1684,  makes  record  as  follows:  "Peticon  of 
Benj*  Ogden  for  50  Acres  of  Land  within  the  bounds  of  Elizabethtown  with  meadow  in 
proportion — Read  and  ordered  that  hee  have  a  war"  granted  him  according  to  his  peticon."

suit 


A  warrant  in  due  form  was  given  May  7,  1686.  Further  entry  of  land  is  shown  under  date 
of  Feb.  18,  1699,  when  John  Harriman  laid  out  to  Benjamin  Ogden  100  acres,  bounded  S.  E. 
by  Joseph  Halsey,  N.  E.  and  S.  W.  by  land  left  for  highways,  and  N.  W.  by  the  foot  of  the 
mountains. 

Capt.  Ebenezer  Peck  came  into  possession  of  "John  Ogden's  Mill"  as  early  as  1693,  and 
he  leased  the  same  to  Benjamin  Ogden  and  Rev.  John  Harriman  jointly  for  £24  per  year. 
Benjamin's  brother  John,  Jr.,  had  sold  this  mill  property  to  Samuel  Whitehead  Oct.  3,  1691. 
In  Sept.,  1693,  Benjamin  Ogden6  and  others  petitioned  the  king  to  be  placed  under  the 
civil  government  of  New  York,  otherwise  to  have  "indifferent  Judges  to  administer  justice 
between  your  petitioners  and  the  said  pretended  Proprietors,  and  to  admonish  the  said 
Usurpers  that  they  presume  no  more  to  usurpe  your  Majesty's  Royal  Authority."  The 
colonists  had  just  cause  for  complaint.  Charles  II.  had  granted  the  whole  tract  of  land  be- 
tween the  Connecticut  and  Delaware  rivers  to  his  brother  James,  Duke  of  York,  in  1664, 
at  which  time  it  was  in  actual  possession  of  the  Dutch  and  Indians.  The  Dutch  under 
Stuyvesant  surrendered  the  territory  to  Gov.  Nicolls  Aug.  27,  1664,  and  in  October  of  that 
year,  he  granted  a  patent  to  the  Elizabethtown  tract  to  John  Ogden,  John  Bailey  and 
others;  it  was  under  the  latter  that  the  petitioners  claimed  title,  but  meantime  the  Duke 
sold  the  claim  to  Lord  Berkeley  and  Sir  George  Carteret.  The  Dutch  regained  possession 
in  July,  1673,  but  were  required  to  cede  it  a  second  time  to  the  English  by  the  treaty  of 
1674.  Meanwhile  the  colonists  had  held  peaceable  possession,  but  the  proprietorship  changed 
frequently,  and  the  subdivisions  and  transfers  of  shares  involved  the  province  in  trouble. 
When  the  English  Proprietors  in  Sept.,  1693,  claimed  title  from  Berkeley  and  Carteret  as  far 
back  as  June,  1664,  matters  came  to  a  climax.  To  test  the  matter  the  Proprietors  brought 
.inst  Jeffery  Jones.    The  jury,  although  chosen  by  the  Proprietors,  returned  a  verdict 

in  Jones'  favor,  but  it  was  set  aside 
by  the  judges;  this  caused  the  Asso- 
ciates to  petition  the  king,  as  above. 
That  Benjamin  Ogden*  was  a 
leading  and  influential  citizen  is  in- 
dicated by  the  fact  of  his  appoint- 
ment as  Sheriff,  Oct.  10,  1694.  He 
is  that  year  also  named  as  a  liberal 
subscriber  to  the  minister's  support. 
Three  years  later,  Aug.  14,  1697, 
he  and  the  Rev.  John  Harriman 
purchased  a  slave  named  Toney,  the 
price  being  £48.  Benjamin  Ogden 
and  Rev.  John  Harriman  being  part- 
ners, they  probably  dealt  in  slaves 
for  use  at  the  mill,  etc. 

The  following  record  was  made 
Mar.  4,   169I:      "At  A  publick  Con- 
ference of  both  houses,    A  Petition 
of  Complaint  Against  George  Jewell 
the  Clerk  of  the  peace  &  John  Gard- 
ner High  Sheriff  for  the  Countie  of  Essex;  signed  by  Benjamin  Ogden,  Jonathan  Clements 
Isaac   Hatfield."     After  a  long  debate  nothing  was  proven  against  either  Clerk  or  Sheriff. 
Benjamin  Ogden6  was  one  of  a  committee  appointed  Dec.  3,  1698,  to  lay  out  the 
King's  Road. 

"In  the  year  of  our  Lord   one  thousand  six  Hundred  and  Ninety-nine  At  a  Town- 
Meeting  (in  Elizabethtown)  of  the  Associates  and  those  Holding  under  them  or  some  of  them 


Clnro  defeneration 


were  admitted  as  Associates  with  them  in  the  afforesaid  Premises,  all  those  Persons  whose 
names  are  hereinafter  next  mentioned;"  among  them  is  the  name  of  Benjamin  Ogden. 

Benjamin  Ogden6  was  one  of  a  number  of  signers  who  transmitted  by  letter  of  Mr. 
R.  Yard,  secretary  of  the  Lords  Justices,  July  17,  1701,  a  petition  to  the  king,  asking  to  be 
taken  under  his  immediate  government,  should  the  Proprietors  not  appoint  a  suitable 
person  as  Governor. 

Dec.  5,  1702,  Benjamin  Ogden6,  Jonathan  Ogden4,  and  John  Plum  are  named  as 
administrators  of  the  will  of  John  Ogden,  Jr. 

These  two  brothers,  Benjamin6  and  Jonathan  Ogden4,  are  both  refused  an  appeal  to 
the  Council  held  at  Burlington,  N.  J.,  Dec.  19,  1710,  because  "her  Majesty's  Instructions 
Restricted  the  Removeall  of  Causes  from  the  Supreme  Court  to  this  board  to  the  Sum  of 
one  hundred  pounds  Sterling." 

Benjamin  Ogden6  made  his  will  July  9,  1722,  and  names  his  wife  Hannah,  sons  John, 
Benjamin,  and  William,  and  his  nephew  Joseph  Woodruff.  He  states  that  he  lived  on  the 
south  side  of  country  road,  and  that  he  has  a  grist  mill  in  partnership  with  John  Harriman. 
He  d.  Nov.  20,  1722,  in  his  69th  year.     His  will  was  proved  in  Trenton,  N.  J.,  Nov.  30,  1722

John  Woodruff,  2D,  was  from  Southampton  Colony,  L.  I.  He  was  a  man  of  distinction 
in  several  important  offices,  from  Ensign  to  High  Sheriff.  He  was  an  original  Associate  and 
took  oath  of  allegiance  Feb.  19,  1665. 

His  house  lot  contained  ij  acres,  was  bounded  W.  by  John  Ogden,  and  on  all  other 
sides  by  highways.  He  later  owned  292  acres,  a  tract  that  is  still  known  as  "Woodruff's 
Farms."  This  acquisition  is  explained  by  the  entry:  "John  Woodruff  of  Eliz  a  towne 
brings  for  his  rights  from  ye  yeare  1666  for  himself  &  his  wife  and  3  able  servants  2  men 
&  a  maid.  In  all  5  persons  at  90  acres  each  =  450  acres.  Ye  warrant  made  5  of  ye  Nov. 
1675." 

When  Capt.  Wm.  Hacket  of  the  sloop  "Endeavor,"  hailing  from  Salisbury,  Co. 
Norfolk,  Eng.,  and  charged  with  illegal  trading  in  the  Province,  had  his  first  jury  trial  at 
Elizabethtown,  May  16,  1671,  John  Woodruff,  2D,  was  one  of  the  leading  men  who  served 
on  the  jury. 

He  took  oath  of  allegiance  to  the  Dutch  Sept.  11,  1673,  and  at  the  same  time  was  sworn 
in  as  Ensign  by  Capt.  Knyff  and  Lieut.  Suel.  On  Dec.  11,  1674,  he  was  appointed  Constable 
of  Elizabethtown,  and  was  again  sworn  to  that  office  Mar.  9,  1675. 

The  General  Assembly  in  Dec,  1683,  passed  a  stringent  military  law,  and  an  act  for  the 
appointment  of  a  "Chief  Ranger"  in  every  county,  to  look  after  the  "estrays  of  the  flocks 
and  herds."  Thereupon,  Benjamin  Parkis  was  appointed  Captain,  George  Ross,  Lieutenant, 
and  John  Woodruff,  2D,  Ensign  of  the  Elizabethtown  Fort  Company.  James  Emmott 
was  made  Chief  Ranger  and  Isaac  Whitehead  Coroner  of  Essex  Co.  In  their  commissions 
dated  Dec.  3,  16S3,  they  are  all  excepting  Emmott  styled  "Gent." 

Nov.  28,  1684,  "John  Woodruff  Sen'"  (his  son  John  had  reached  majority)  was  appointed 
High  Sheriff  of  Essex  Co.

Capt.  David  Ogden,  2D9,  was  a  resident  of  Newark,  N.  J.  In  papers  left  by  John  R. 
Burnet  (Newark)  is  this  mention:  "Names  signed  to  the  agreement  dated  Sept.  3,  1701 
Entitled  a  true  copy  of  the  articles  of  the  first  committee  for  the  purchase  of  the  Western 
part  of  the  Township,  between  the  mountains  &  the  Passaic  River,  (ages  given  as  far  as 
known  J.  R.  B.)."  Among  the  names  are  Elizabeth  Ogden,  David  Ogden,  age  23,  John 
Ogden,  and  Josiah  Ogden,  age  22.  The  foregoing  was  published  in  the  Sentinel  of  June  20, 
1S54. 

The  following  facts  concerning  Capt.  David  Ogden's9  life  are  taken  from  the  "  New- 
ark Town  Records." 

"Town  Meeting,  May  25th,  17 13 — It  was  agreed  upon  by  vote  that  the  Charges  for 
procuring  a  Town  Pattent  should  be  raised  as  Mr  Bower's  Salary  (that  is  to  say)  all  Lands 
&•  Meadows  at  £25  p.  Hundred  Acres,  all  Cattle  &  Horses  one  Year  old  and  upwards  at 
£2  p.  head,  all  Male  White  Persons  at  Sixteen  Years  old  and  upwards  at  £14  p.  head." 

"  Item,  Ensign  Samuel  Cooper  and  James  Brown  were  chosen  Rate  makers  and  Assessors 
— Item,  David  Ogden,  Collector."     The  latter  was  then  about  35  years  old. 

At  Town  Meeting  held  Nov.  2,  1713,  Samuel  Cooper  and  David  Ogden,  2D,  were  chosen 
Assessors  and  Rate  Makers,  and  both  were  re-elected  Nov.  1,  1714.  On  Mar.  12,  1716-17, 
David  Ogden,  2D,  was  chosen  Assessor  for  the  Provincial  tax,  and  Samuel  Ailing,  Collector. 
David  was  chosen  for  the  same  office  Mar.  11,  1718-19,  Nov.  2,  1719,  Mar.  8,  1719-20,  and 
Mar.  10,  1729-30. 

David  Ogden,  2D<>,  and  Joseph  Burwell  were  selected  by  vote,  Jan.  20,  1714-15,  to  agree 
with  the  persons  who  laid  out  the  common  line  fence  as  to  what  should  be  the  proper  remuner- 
ation.

On  Mar.  14,  1721,  Joseph  Crane  and  David  Ogden,  2Do,  were  chosen  Freeholders,  and

Mar.  11,  1728-9,  and  in  company  with  Lieut.  Samuel  Cooper.  (These  officers  are  called

Bankes. 

Col.  Josiah  Ogden'°  was  one  of  the  most  prominent  and  influential  men  in  civil  affairs 
of  Newark,  N.  J.  He  was  also  a  strong  moral  factor  in  the  religious  matters  of  the  com- 
munity, and  a  man  of  considerable  wealth.  A  minute  of  Town  Meeting  held  Mar.  8,  1714-15, 
would  indicate  this  in  the  large  number  of  links  of  fence  to  the  commonage  that  was  his 
portion  to  be  kept  in  repair.  This  fence  separated  the  cultivated  land  from  the  meadow 
or  pasture  land,  95  links  being  apportioned  Josiah  Ogden,  which  section  of  fence  ran  from 
Bound  Creek  northward  to  the  main  river.  He  resided  in  a  commodious  stone  house  "at 
the  most  publick  Landing  in  Newark,"  with  garden,  orchard,  etc.

At  Town  Meeting  held  Aug.  30,  17 16,  it  was  "Voted  by  the  Town  to  chuse  a  Committee 
to  se  out  some  Way  to  procure  a  Minister  for  the  Town,  to  supply  the  Place  of  Mr.  Nathaniel 
Bowers,  dee'd."  The  committee  consisted  of  Deacon  Azariah  Crane,  Capt.  Eliphalet  Johnson, 
Mr.  Samuel  Ailing,  Mr.  Josiah  Ogden,  Mr.  Jonathan  Crane,  Mr.  Thomas  Davis  and  John 
Cooper. 

When  it  was  required  to  fix  a  boundary  line  between  Newark  and  Elizabeth  Town,  a 
Town  Meeting  held  Oct.  24,  1739,  chose,  as  committee  for  that  purpose,  Jonathan  Crane, 
Col.  Josiah  Ogden1",  and  Samuel  Farrand,  Esq. 

"  Stearns'  Hist.  Newark  "  has  this  to  say  concerning  an  important  event  in  the  history 
of  the  town,  and  of  the  man  who  unwittingly  brought  it  about:  "Col.  Josiah  Ogden  was 
a  leading  member  of  the  community,  a  pillar  of  the  First  Church.  He  was  a  man  of  energy, 
wealth  and  influence.  .  .  .  From  17 16  to  1721  the  Colonel  represented  the  town  in  the 
General  Assembly.  He  appears  to  have  been  a  man  of  strong  individuality,  holding  positive 
and  decided  views  regarding  things  spiritual  as  well  as  temporal.  On  a  certain  Sunday 
in  the  fall  of  some  year  close  to  1733,  Col.  Ogden,  contrary  to  a  rule  of  the  First  Church, 
went  into  his  field  and  saved  his  wheat,  which  was  exposed  to  serious  loss  from  long  continued 
rains.  .  .  .  For  his  daring  conduct  he  was  subjected  to  the  discipline  of  the  Church,  on 
account  of  having  violated  the  sanctity  of  the  Lord's  Day,  and  publicly  censured.  The 
Presbytery  reversed  the  decision  of  the  Church,  righteously  deeming  the  act  of  Col.  Ogden 
one  of  imperative  necessity,  and  tried  to  pour  oil  on  the  troubled  waters.  It  was  too  late. 
Around  Col.  Ogden  rallied  a  considerable  body  who  openly  began  to  declare  themselves 
dissatisfied  with  the  Presbyterian  form  of  Church  government. 

"A  bitter  controversy  ensued.  Col.  Ogden  carried  the  matter  to  the  Philadelphia 
Synod.  For  several  years  an  animated  correspondence  took  place.  ...  '  Behold  how 
great  a  matter  a  little  fire  kindleth! '  Out  of  this  trivial  matter  sprang  the  Episcopal  Church 
in  Newark,  and  a  conflagration  of  local  feeling  which  it  took  nearly  half  a  century  to  ex- 
tinguish." 

"  Whitehead's  Contributions  to  East  Jersey  History"  gives  us  the  manner  of  raising 
funds  for  the  building  of  the  church :  "  In  1 7  58,  the  provincial  government  authorized  a  pub- 
lic lottery  to  raise  money  to  purchase  certain  lands  from  the  Indians,  and  this  bad  example 
was  immediately  seized  upon  as  giving  a  license  to  the  practice  again  to  an  unlimited  extent. 
The  year  1759  gave  birth  to  the  following  schemes : —  ...  One  for  building  Trinity  Church, 
Newark,  the  highest  prize  Si 000;  the  managers  of  which  were  John  Schuyler,  Josiah  Horn- 
blower,  Josiah  Ogden,  Daniel  Piersonand  Gabriel  Ogden."  Lotteries  became  so  prevalent, 
an  act  of  the  Legislature  of  1748  prohibited  the  founding  of  new  ones,  and  required  that 
drawings  from  those  already  advertised  should  be  done  outside  the  state;  but  an  act  of  1758 
favorable  to  lotteries  caused  many  others  to  form  and  operate  in  all  parts  of  the  state. 

Col.  Josiah  Ogdem'»,  the  founder  of  Trinity  Episcopal  Church,  died  in  1763  at  a  ripe 
old  age,  and  was  buried  in  the  old  burying  ground.  Upon  the  breaking  up  of  the  latter,  his 
tombstone  was  taken  up  and  placed  in  the  floor  of  the  porch  of  the  church,  his  brother 
David's  being  placed  likewise  on  the  opposite  side.  (See  design  on  p.  52.)  The  inscription 
is  as  follows: 

"Here  Lyes  Interred 

ye  body  of 

Col.  Josiah  Ogden 

Who  died  May   17TH   1763 

In  the   84TH   year  of   his  age" 

In  his  will  he  states,  "I  give  to  the  rector,  church  wardens,  and  vestry  of  Trinity  Church, 
in  Newark,  my  silver  cup  or  porringer  with  two  handles  to  the  same,  for  and  to  the  only 
use  of  said  church."

The  New  York  Gazette  of  issue  Aug.  i,  1763,  had  this  advertisement: 
"TO  BE  SOLD, 

"The  late  Dwelling  House  of  Col.  Josiah  Ogden,  at  Newark,  being  built  of  Free  stone, 
Two  and  a  half  Story  high,  has  six  good  Rooms  and  Fire  places,  besides  a  kitchen  with  a 
Garden  and  Barn,  and  also  about  four  Acres  of  very  good  Mowing  or  Pasture  land,  with  an 
Orchard  thereon  of  choice  Fruit  lying  near  said  House,  which  is  pleasantly  situated  at  the

Capt.  John  Ogden"  was  a  resident  of  Newark,  N.J.  He  entered  public  life  very  early, 
and  according  to  the  "  Newark  Town  Records  "  was  chosen  "Pounder"  May  9,  1700;  he  was 
then  just  of  age.  The  minutes  of  "A  Town  Meeting  held  at  Newark  Sep'tr  ye  28th  1714" 
has  this  item:  "  John  Ogden  is  Chosen  Constable  by  Vote,  to  Execute  Such  Matters  and

Thomas  Ogden1*  resided  in  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.  While  he  did  not  seem  to  accumulate 
much  wealth,  and  there  is  not  extensive  record  left  of  his  public  life,  yet  he  was  a  man  of 
ability  and  integrity,  as  is  evinced  in  his  election  to  important  office  in  his  county.  The  first 
mention  of  his  business  life  concerns  his  purchase,  Jan.  31,  17 19,  of  8 J  acres  of  land  in  Eliza- 
bethtown of  one  John  Harrison,  Esq.,  of  Amboy.  On  Mar.  13,  1720,  Thomas  Ogden,  Joseph 
Crane,  Caleb  Ward  and  Jacob  Mitchell  were  elected  road  overseers  for  Essex  Co.  They 
laid  out  a  road  four  rods  wide  from  a  stub  near  the  house  of  Zachariah  Crane  to  a  birch  tree, 
thence  to  Nathaniel  and  Azariah  Crane's  corner.  One  of  the  "  Burnet  Papers  "  bearing  date 
of  1 72 1  has  this  record:  "Effingham  Townley,  Gentleman,  to  Ed  Vaughan,  gent,  J.  Blan- 
chard  Yeoman  John  Hendricks  Yeoman  and  Thomas  Ogden  Mason,  120  acres  of  land." 
Besides  the  acquisition  of  land,  Thomas  Ogden  is  shown  to  have  been  a  mason  or  bricklayer. 
The  records  of  Trinity  Church,  Newark,  under  date  of  1743-4,  reveal  the  fact  that  he  helped 
in  building  that  church. 

He  is  frequently  named  in  the  court  records  as  having  much  litigation  prior  to  and  after 
the  year  1743. 

He  was  elected  Collector  for  Essex  Co.  and  gave  the  following  receipt:  "January  17, 
1731,  Then  Received  of  Robert  Ogden  Collector  of  Eliz'th  Town  the  sum  of  Sixty  nine 
pounds  and  Eliven  Shillings  proclamation  money  for  support  of  Government  and  for 
Licenceses  Two  pounds  and  four  shillings  which  makes  seventy  one  pounds  and  fifteen 
shillings.    It  being  the  full  Quota  of  Elizabeth  Town  for  the  year  1731.   I  say  Received  pr  me 

£71-15-0  Tho-  Ogden  Collec'" 

On  Jan.  7,  1743-4,  he  signed  a  quitclaim  to  John  Clawson,  Jr.,  to  all  rights  in  the  estate 
of  John  Clawson,  Sr.,  deceased.  A  record  of  July  9,  1755,  states  that  "Thomas  Ogden  of 
the  borough  of  Elizabethtown,  Bricklayer"  gave  a  bond  or  note  to  his  son-in-law  Thomas 
Price  for  £20  5s.  and  on  same  date  binds  himself,  his  heirs,  etc.  to  also  pay  Thomas  Price 
j£io  2S.  6d.;  this  latter  note  was  witnessed  by  Moses  Ogden  and  Thomas  Tobin.  The  former 
obligation  was  paid  by  John  Clawson,  administrator  of  Thomas  Ogden's13  estate,  in  1761. 
The  following  entry  concerns  the  sale  of  Thomas  Ogden's  effects: 

"Feb.  ye  27  1761  The  sails  of  the  goods  of  the  estait  of  Thomas  Ogden  Deceased  sold 
at  Vandue  amounted  to  thirty  nine  pounds  seventeen  shillings  and  six  pence. 

"£39-17-6  sold  by  me  the  day  &  year  above  by  me  Abraham  Clark" 

W.  B.  Denton,  genealogist,  says  that  Jean  (Halsted)  Clawson  1st  m.  Caleb  Halsted, 
Sr.,  of  Hempstead,  L.  I.,  and  was  mother  of  Caleb  Halsted,  Jr.,  who  m.  No.  88,  Rebecca 
Ogden.  Letters  of  administration  on  estate  of  Caleb  Halsted,  Sr.,  were  granted  to  wid. 
Jean  Halsted,  Mar.  26,  1721,  at  Perth  Amboy,  N.  J.  She  probably  2d  m.  John  Clawson, 
on  whose  estate  she  took  out  letters  of  administration  Mar.  24,  1728,  at  Perth  Amboy. 
It  is  believed  she  belonged  to  Rockland  Co.,  N.  Y.

David  Ackerman  and  Hillegondt  Ver  Planck,  his  wife. 

Swaine  Ogdeni3  was  born  in  Newark,  N.J.,  in  which  place  his  parents  had  spent  all 
their  married  life,  but  he  first  appears  upon  record  at  Hackensack,  N.  J.,  where  he  married  a 
Dutch  lady,  and  where  nearly  all  of  his  children  were  born  and  baptized.  The  baptismal 
register  of  the  old  Dutch  Church  at  Hackensack  would  indicate  that  he  returned  to  Newark 
or  vicinity  after  his  son  Nathaniel  was  baptized  in  1722.  Four  other  children  were  added 
to  the  family,  the  youngest  of  whom  was  John,  who  was  baptized  at  the  Dutch  Church  in 
Belleville,  a  suburb  of  Newark,  in  1729.  The  records  of  1727  speak  of  him  as  "Swain 
Ogden  of  Newark."  On  May  4th  of  that  year  he  is  sued  for  £100  by  one  James  Rogers, 
and  gives  bond  for  £200.  At  the  April  term  of  court  in  Newark,  1729,  Swaine  Ogden'3 
and  others  were  appointed  overseers  for  Newark. 

His  residence  was  probably  near  Orange,  as  he  and  his  family  were  buried  in  the  old 
cemetery  in  that  place.  This  leads  us  to  the  record  of  a  very  sad  experience  of  that  early 
pioneer  day,  related  in  "  Wick's  History  of  the  Oranges."  "A  fearful  pestilence,"  believed  to 
be  identical  with  the  diphtheria  of  our  day,  made  its  appearance  at  Kingston,  New  Hamp- 
shire, during  a  cold,  wet  season  in  the  month  of  May,  and  was  peculiarly  fatal  to  children 
During  that  year  and  the  following  one,  it  spread  southward  through  Massachusetts, 
Connecticut,  New  York  and  New  Jersey,  "almost  stripping  the  country  of  children."  Of 
the  first  forty  cases,  none  recovered.  The  ravages  of  the  dread  disease  in  New  Jersey  during 
1 73S  brought  untold  sorrow  to  the  homes  of  the  settlers,  and  a  mute  tombstone  in  the  old 
parish  graveyard  of  Orange  bears  this  sad  inscription: 

"Mary  Dec'd  April  y€  7,  aged  9  years

In  the  "  Book  of  Surveys  "  at  Perth  Amboy,  N.  J.,  we  find  the  following  entry  of  land 
purchases:  "Swain  Ogden  &  Lemuel  Ward,  March  14  1742-3  buy  of  John  Burnet  of  the 
city  of  Perth  Amboy  Esq.  for  £42-2-4  117  acres  of  land  to  be  surveyed  in  any  unappro- 
priated part  of  said  Burnets  warrant  for  2721  acres  from  the  Proprietors."     Again: 

"Samuel  Ward  of  Newark,  N.J.  Gent,  to  Swain  Ogden  of  the  Town  County  &  State 
aforesaid  Yeoman.

Ackermans"  and  "Hillegondt  Ver  Planck."  The  baptismal  register  of  the  old  Dutch  church 
of  Hackensack,  N.  J.,  records  her  husband's  name  as"Swaen  Hockdon"  and  "Swaen  Ock-

Jonathan  Ogden,  2D'4,  is  named  in  "  N.  J.  Colonial  Documents  "  as  one  of  the  many 
who  petitioned  the  king,  probably  in  1696,  for  greater  protection  from  the  East  Jersey 
Proprietors.  He  had  then  about  attained  his  majority;  he  was  a  resident  of  Elizabethtown, 
N.  J.,  and  occupied  a  house  owned  by  his  father,  Jonathan  Ogden,  Sr.4 

At  a  Court  of  Sessions  or  County  Court  held  at  Newark  "for  y*  County  of  Essex  on 
Tuesday  ye  Tenth  day  of  September  1700,"  a  "Rabbell  of  Elizabeth  Towne"  consisting 
of  about  sixty  horsemen  appeared  and  broke  up  the  court.  They  pulled  the  judge  from  the 
bench,  tore  the  wig  from  his  head  and  otherwise  maltreated  him,  using  violence  likewise 
upon  the  other  court  and  county  officers.  They  then  liberated  a  prisoner  who  was  on  trial 
for  bastardy.  One  of  the  offenders  was  Jonathan  Ogden,  2D'4,  although  his  name  does  not 
appear  among  those  indicted  by  the  grand  jury;  also  his  uncle  Capt.  Benjamin  Ogden6, 
and  the  latter's  son  Benjamin  Ogden,  Jr."  The  names  of  the  rioters  were  presented  to  the 
grand  jury  Sept.  12,  1700,  but  nothing  is  known  of  the  penalty  inflicted  upon  those  found 
guilty.     One  of  the  grand  jurors  was  Capt.  David  Ogden1). 

Jonathan  Ogden,  2D'4,was  one  of  the  petitioners  to  the  king  asking  to  be  taken  under 
his  direct  government,  should  the  Proprietors  not  appoint  a  suitable  person  as  Governor. 
This  petition  was  transmitted  by  Mr.  R.  Yard,  Secretary  of  the  Lords  Justices,  July  17,  1701

Samuel  Ogden's  was  a  resident  of  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.,  where  he  was  born,  but,  as  he 
married  his  second  wife  at  Easthampton,  L.I.,  he  may  have  remained  there  a  short  time. 
In  1711  we  find  him  again  in  Elizabethtown,  and  an  "  Overseer  of  the  Highways;"  in  1712 
he  was  made  Constable.  He  died  aged  35,  having  made  his  will  Nov.  26,  1714,  which

Robert  Ogden16  was  born  at  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.,  and  was  a  resident  of  that  place. 
He  was  a  representative  man  in  civil  and  ecclesiastical  affairs.  "A  Pillar  in  both  Church  & 
State." 

The  first  time  his  name  appears  in  the  records  is  in  the  year  1729.  The  "Town  Books" 
containing  surveys  of  lands  and  minutes  of  Town  Meetings  for  over  fifty  years  mysteriously 
disappeared  about  17 18  or  17 19,  the  earliest  statement  of  the  loss  being  found  in  the  initial 
entry  of  "Town  Book  B."  under  date  of  Aug.  2,  1720.  At  that  time  it  was  "By  A  free  And 
unanimous  Agreement  of  the  freehold's  af ores'1  Concluded  and  Resolved;  That  This  present 
Book  Now  Is  And  Shall  Be  Improved  To  be,  A  book  of  Records,  for  the  use  and  behoof  of 
the  freeholders  of  Elizabeth  Town  Aforesd,  And  for  no  Other  use  whatsoever."  More  than 
nine  years  later,  Nov.  18,  1729,  this  agreement  was  ratified  by  the  associates  and  their 
successors,  some  ninety  in  number,  Robert  Ogden16  being  one  of  them. 

Robert  Ogden"6  was  made  Collector  for  Essex  Co.,  Feb.   16,   1720-1.

In  ' '  Salisbury  ' '  occurs  an  important  entry  concerning  his  church  relationship :  ' '  For  the

Tuttle,  husb.  of  Abigail  Ogden44: 

"Joseph  Tuttle,  b.  Sept.  2,  i6gS;  at  Newark,  N.  J.  appt.  supervisor  of  highways, 
March  8,  1725;  clerk  for  entering  strays,  March  9,  1730;  one  of  the  overseers  of  the  poor 
and  fence  viewer;  bought  lands  in  Hanover,  1724-25,  and  removed  there  some  years  later. 
In  1734  he  bought  a  tract  of  1,250  acres  at  Hanover  Neck,  on  the  Whippany  and  Passaic 
rivers,  near  the  confluence.  A  deed,  supposed  to  be  of  this  property,  dated  Jan.  22,  1733-34. 
given  by  John  and  Samuel  Johnson  to  Joseph  Tuttle,  blacksmith.  He  was  a  Justice  of 
the  Peace;  a  Colonel  of  militia,  and  a  dea.  of  the  chh.  He  was  a  widower  and  blind  some 
years  before  his  death,  Nov.  3,  1789,  aged  91  yrs.  His  monument,  an  altar  stone  in  the 
Whippany  graveyard,  has  an  inscription  composed  by  the  Rev.  Dr.  Green  : 

"'The  tender  names  of  father,  husband,  friend, 
And  neighbor  kind,  did  through  his  life  extend; 
In  church  and  state  he  virtuous  honor  gain'd, 
And  all  his  offices  with  truth  sustained. 
As  deacon,  elder,  colonel,  judge,  he  shone, 
While  heaven  was  his  hope,  his  rest,  his  home. 
Laden'd  with  honours  usefulness  &  years, 
He  drop'd  this  clay,  &  with  ye  saints  appears. '" 

His  wife's  monument  (a  plain  slab)  says:  "Here  Lyes  ye  Body  of  mrs  Abigail  Tuttle 
wife  of  Coll  Joseph  Tuttle  Dec'd  Augst  ye  26   1751     Aged  About  50  years."

m. Elizabeth  Charlotte  Thebaut,  dau.  of  Gabriel  Lewis  Th6baut, 

of  the  island  of  Antigua. 

The  earliest  record  of  Uzal  Ogdenjs  is  under  date  of  Apr.  15,  1740,  at  which  time 
he  unites  with  brothers  John46  and  David47  in  the  purchase  of  property  afterward  known 
as  the  Ringwood  Iron  Works  or  mines  in  Sussex  Co.,  N.  J.  The  first  item  in  Trinity  Church 
(Newark)  records  bears  date  Mar.  21,  1742-3:  "Trinity  Church  to  Uzal  Ogden  Dr.  To 
one  gallon  rum  for  the  stone  diggers  £0-4-."  He  appears  to  have  furnished  all  the  labor 
and  material,  or  else  was  treasurer  of  the  funds. 

From  1743  to  1762  he  is  named  in  Essex  Co.  court  minutes  as  Justice  or  County  Judge. 
In  1748  he  is  one  of  a  committee  to  grant  pardon  to  rebels.  In  1755  Gov.  Belcher  issued  a 
proclamation  granting  friendly  Indians  of  the  province  the  privilege  of  acknowledging  their 
allegiance  to  the  English  government  and  of  being  protected  by  His  Majesty's  subjects. 
They  were  to  be  enrolled  by  a  magistrate  for  each  county,  given  a  certificate,  and  be  desig- 
nated by  wearing  a  red  ribbon  on  the  head  for  protection.  Uzal  Ogden4s  was  appointed 
magistrate  for  Essex  Co.  to  register  such  Indians  as  should  apply. 

He  was  appointed,  Feb.  16,  1 7  59,  administrator  of  estate  of  John  Bruen,  Jr.  At  the  April 
term  of  court,  1763,  he  was  appointed  Sheriff  of  Essex  Co.  In  1765  he  and  brother  John46 
sold  the  Ringwood  Mines  to  Samuel  Gouverneur.  In  1778  is  a  Warden  of  Trinity  Church, 
Newark,  and  Apr.  5,  of  following  year,  is  requested  to  write  his  son,  Rev.  Dr.  Uzal^s,  to 
preach  in  Trinity  Church.  His  death  and  burial  are  not  recorded,  though  they  probably 
occurred  in  Newark,  N.J.

aged  48 ;  dau.  of  Jonathan  Sayer. 

Judge  John  "Ogden*6  is  known  as  "John  Ogden  of  Newark, "  where  he  was  a  promi- 
nent lawyer  and  judge,  and  in  the  Essex  County  court  minutes  is  continuously  mentioned 
from  1742  to  1776  as  Justice,  Judge,  etc. 

On  Apr.  15,  1740,  he  joined  with  his  uncle  Josiah'°  and  brothers  UzaUs  and  David-"  in 
the  purchase  of  the  Ringwood  property,  forming  the  Ringwood  Mining  Company,  he  sold 
his  interest  to  Samuel  Gouverneur  in  1765. 

He  was  greatly  hated  and  persecuted  by  the  English  and  Tories  during  the  Revolution- 
ary War,  and  "Atkinson's  Hist.  Newark"  thus  speaks  of  their  treatment  of  him:  "Justice 
John  Ogden,  whom  you  know,  had  his  house  robbed  of  every  thing  they  could  carry  away. 
They  ripped  open  his  beds,  broke  his  desk  to  pieces,  and  destroyed  a  great  number  of  im- 
portant papers,  deeds,  wills,  etc.  belonging  to  himself  and  others;  and  the  more  he  entreated 
them  to  desist  from  such  unprofitable  and  pernicious  waste,  the  more  outrageous  they  were. 
They  hauled  a  sick  son  out  of  his  bed,  whose  life  had  been  despaired  of  some  time,  and 
grossly  abused  him,  threatening  him  with  death  in  a  variety  of  forms." 

John  Ogden-hs  and  his  wife  were  buried  in  the  old  churchyard  on  Broad  street,  Newark, 
N.  J.;  the  epitaphs  were  copied  in  "Conger's  Notes,"  the  old  tombstones  being  removed 
to  Fairmount  Cemetery  and   buried  under  the  monument  erected  to  commemorate  the

Judge  David  Ogden 5°  was  a  man  of  rare  ability  and  attainment,  of  high  scholarship  and 
undoubted  integrity  of  character,  and  a  prominent  leader  of  men.  His  activities  occurred 
in  troublous  times  and  the  full  display  of  his  powers  was  somewhat  checked  by  them, 
yet  he  stands  above  his  fellows  in  intrinsic  worth  and  honesty  of  purpose.  There  appears 
to  be  no  official  record  of  his  birth  and  death,  but  they  may  be  nearly  arrived  at  by  his  will, 
etc.  He  was  born  at  Newark,  N.  J.,  1707,  and  died  at  Flushing,  Queens  Co.,  N.  Y.,  between 
May  19,  1798  (date  of  will)  and  Aug.  6  of  same  year,  when  will  was  proved. 

"Atkinson  Hist,  of  Newark,"  after  speaking  of  the  great  questions  then  rocking  the 
cradle  of  American  Independence,  goes  on  to  say:  "The  attitude  of  one  family  in  particular 
commanded  attention.  This  was  the  rich,  powerful,  influential  and  cultured  Ogden  family 
The  head  of  the  family  was  Judge  David  Ogden,  son  of  Colonel  Josiah  Ogden.  Judge 
Ogden  was  educated  at  Yale  College,  graduating  with  high  honors  in  1728,  and  apart  from 
his  wealth,  which  in  those  days  was  quite  large,  commanded  wide-spread  influence  in  the 
Province.  He  had  long  been  a  member  of  his  Majesty's  Council  and  was  also  for  many 
years  a  Justice  of  the  Supreme  Court.     He  espoused  the  cause  of  King  George.     What  hap-

Ctye  flDgdeu  family 


pened  after  the  outbreak  of  hostilities  is  described  by  the  Judge  himself  in  a  document 
of  rare  merit  printed  in  London  in  1784  and  entitled  'The  Claim  of  David  Ogden,  Esq.' 
Surely  it  is  due  to  the  memory  of  these  distinguished  American  Loyalists  to  recollect  that 
their  motives  were  beyond  doubt  anything  but  low — were  in  fact  the  very  opposite  of 
mean,  and  as  they  appear  to  us  through  the  microscope  of  a  century  they  represent  only 
an  honorable  high-toned  and  exalted  sentiment." 

Allying  himself  with  the  Loyalist  side  during  the  Revolutionary  War,  Judge  David 
Ogden5°  naturally  awakened  the  antipathy  of  the  Continental  party  and  was  subjected 
to  many  indignities  and  persecutions.  The  "New  York  Historical  Collections"  for  1875 
has  the  following  letter  from  Gen.  Pattison  to  Lieut.  Hills: 

"To  Lieutenant  Hills 

"Sir  "New  York,  May  24,  1780. 

"  A  Complaint  having  been  made  to  Major  Gen'l  Pattison  of  your  having  very  ill  treated 
Mr  Ogden  a  Gentleman  &  Refugee,  who  Fled  upon  a  Principle  of  Loyalty  from  the  Province 
of  New  Jersey:  the  General  directs  me  to  say  that  he  is  convinced  you  could  not  have 
known  the  Rank  and  Character  of  the  Man  you  so  attacked,  but  upon  being  informed 
that  he  is  one  of  the  King's  Council  for  the  Province  of  New  Jersey,  as  well  as  one  of  the 
Judges  of  the  Supreme  Court,  and  added  to  this,  a  most  respectable  Character  in  Private 
Life,  the  General  doubts  not  that  you  will  make  him  such  an  apology  as  one  Gentleman 
ought  to  do  to  another,  and  thereby  prevent  this  matter  being  brought  to  a  more  disagree- 
able Issue.  I  am,  Sir  &c

and  Civil  Hist,  of  N.  J."  and  is  as  follows: 

"It  is  a  fact  which  has  perhaps  escaped  the  attention  of  historians,  that  some  of  the 
strongest  and  ablest  men  in  the  profession  of  the  law  became  devoted  loyalists.  David 
Ogden  was  one  of  these,  and  he  embraced  the  side  of  the  King  of  England  from  pure  con- 
victions of  duty,  for  he  was  an  honest  man,  and  his  decisions  for  his  own  individual  guidance 
were  based  upon  what  he  deemed  just  and  right.      .  .      . 

"David  Ogden  was  born  at  Newark,  very  early  in  the  eighteenth  century.  He  was 
educated  at  Yale,  where  he  was  matriculated  in  1728.  He  then  read  law  in  New  York, 
and  after  completing  his  studies  began  practice  in  Newark.  He  was  not  a  dazzling  nor  a 
brilliant  man,  and  could  not  be  called  a  genius,  but  he  had  better  qualifications  than  those 
generally  accompanying  genius,  to  equip  him  for  a  lawyer's  life.  He  was  clear-headed,  of 
uncommon  good  sense,  of  unfailing  judgment,  and  added  to  these  excellent  aids  to  success 
in  the  legal  profession,  the  most  untiring  industry,  unsurpassed  by  any  of  his  contemporaries 
at  the  bar.  Very  soon,  he  was  the  acknowledged  leader  of  the  profession  in  New  Jersey. 
He  received  an  appointment  to  the  bench,  as  associate  justice,  in  1772.  No  man  of  his 
time  was  better  equipped  than  he  for  the  performance  of  the  duties  of  this  office.  His 
inexhaustible  stores  of  learning,  his  clear  perception  and  honesty  of  purpose,  were  qualifi- 
cations which  admirably  fitted  him  for  the  office  of  judge.  But  he  could  not  have  had  a 
fair  opportunity  of  displaying  his  capability  for  the  position.  He  was  appointed  in  troublous 
times,  at  a  period  when  it  must  have  been  apparent  to  the  most  casual  observer  that  the 
issue  between  the  colonies  and  England  must  soon  be  submitted  to  the  arbitrament  of  the 
sword.  When  the  lawyers  refused  to  purchase  stamps,  he  united  with  them  in  their  action ; 
but  he  was  a  loyalist  and  an  honest  one.  When  hostilities  actually  began  and  it  was  not 
safe  for  him  longer  to  remain  in  the  place  of  his  birth,  he  removed  to  New  York  and  resided 
there  during  the  war.  His  convictions  of  duty  drove  him  to  decided  action,  and  he  devoted 
all  the  energies  of  his  nature  to  the  success  of  the  cause  he  honestly  believed  deserved  to  be 
68 


tftftl)  (0mcratton 


successful,  and  never  despaired  until  the  last  moment,  of  its  final  triumph.  He  busied  him- 
self most  industriously  with  his  pen.  Among  his  productions  was  one  which  provided  for 
a  plan  for. the  government  of  the  colonies  after  their  submission,  which,  as  he  expressed  it, 
'was  certain  and  soon  to  happen,  if  proper  measures  were  not  neglected.'  His  plan  was 
quite  complex,  but  it  is  somewhat  amusing  to  notice  that  it  embraced  perfect  self-govern- 
ment by  the  colonies  through  a  parliament  and  officers  chosen  by  the  colonists,  with  power 
of  taxation  vested  only  in  the  Continental  Parliament.  Among  other  propositions  made 
by  Mr.  Ogden  was  the  creation  of  Barons  from  among  the  freeholders  and  inhabitants  of 
the  colonies,  who  were  to  compose  a  house  of  Peers  for  the  American  Parliament.  Perhaps 
David  Ogden  might  have  had  in  his  mind  one  inhabitant  of  the  provinces  who,  he  thought, 
would  make  an  excellent  member  of  the  proposed  House  of  Lords  and  who  ought  to  be 
made  a  Baron. 

"After  the  independence  of  the  Republic  was  acknowledged  by  the  British  government, 
Mr.  Ogden  went  to  England  and  became  agent  for  the  loyalists  in  the  prosecution  of  their 
claims  for  compensation  for  losses  they  had  sustained  by  their  adherence  to  the  King.  He 
returned  from  England  in  1790,  and  resided  in  Long  Island  until  his  death,  which  occurred 
in    1800." 

The  date  of  Judge  David  Ogden'ss°  death  given  above  is  incorrect,  as  his  will  made 
May  1  g,  1798,  was  proved  Aug.  6  of  same  year.  In  this  will  he  gives  son  Nicholas1*1  a  farm  at 
Flushing,  "if  his  reputation  for  Patriotism  is  good  enough  for  him  to  take  and  hold  it;" 
if  not,  it  is  to  go  in  trust  to  Aaron  Burr,  Richard  Varick,  Peter  Kemble,  of  New  York,  and 
Richard  Stockton  of  Princeton,  N.  J.  He  speaks  of  unsettled  affairs  between  him  and  his 
sons  Abraham"?6  and  Samuel1?8,  which  he  had  already  attempted  to  settle  by  arbitration. 
Mention  is  made  of  a  bond  or  obligation  he  holds  against  Samuel1'8,  given  about  1770,  for 
the  purchase  of  the  Boonton  estate  in  Morris  Co.,  N.  J.;  he  advises  his  executors  to  wait 
one  month  for  payment  of  same,  then  proceed  to  collect  by  law.  He  gives  daughter  Sarah 
(Ogden)  Hoffmanns  his  post-chaise  and  harness,  and  his  son  Isaacs  $500.  The  executors 
are  Aaron  Burr,  Richard  Varick,  Richard  Stockton,  and  son  Nicholas  Ogden"81. 

Gertrude  (Gouverneur)  Ogden,  wife  of  Judge  David  Ogdenso,  was  a  member  of  the 
Gouverneur  family  of  New  York.  In  the  old  Gouverneur  Bible  her  birth  is  thus  recorded: 
"In  the  year  of  our  Lord  17 16,  on  the  5th  of  March,  on  Tuesday  morning  at  six  o'clock,  was 
born  our  sixth  daughter  and  was  called  Gertrude  and  was  baptized  by  the  Rev.  Du  Bois. 
Godfather  Philip  Schuyler.  Godmother  [Anne]  Elizabeth  Schuyler  \ni'e  Staats,  maternal 
aunt  of  the  child]." 

The  following  record  found  elsewhere  states: 

"New  York  Jan  15.  On  the  30th  Ultimo  Dec.  1775,  at  Newark  in  New  Jersey,  Mrs 
Ogden,  the  wife  of  the  Hon.  David  Ogden  Esq.  departed  this  life  in  the  60th  year  of  her  Age, 
after  a  painful  and  lingering  Illness;  which  she  bore  with  that  Fortitude  and  Resignation 
which  truly  characterize  the  good  Christian ;  patiently  waiting  for  that  happy  period  which 
would  end  her  sorrows.  Complaisance  with  strict  Sincerity, — Humility  without  meanness, — 
Beneficence  without  Ostentation, — Devoutness  without  Superstition, — and  in  the  several 
duties  of  Wife  and  Parent,  Tenderness  and  Affection,  were  amiable  Qualities  which  ren- 
dered her  worthy  of  the  Regard  and  Esteem  of  her  Husband,  Children,  and  Acquaintance 
and  justly  implanted  in  each  one  a  lasting  Reverence  to  her  Memory."

Dr.  Jacob  Ogdens3  was  a  celebrated  physician  of  his  time.  After  receiving  his  medical 
education,  he  removed  to  Jamaica,  Long  Island,  where  he  gained  an  extensive  practice 
that  continued  until  his  death  in  1780,  which  occurred  by  accident  through  his  horse  taking 
fright.  He  is  mentioned  in  several  medical  works  as  a  leader  in  his  profession;  he  became 
widely  known  by  his  letters  on  "Malignant  sore  throat  distemper,"  published  about  1764, 
the  disease  then  being  prevalent  on  Long  Island  and  elsewhere,  and  proving  very  mortal. 

Dr.  Francis  said  of  him  that  "when  medicine  was  obscured  by  prejudice,  encumbered 
by  forms  and  shrouded  in  mystery,  he  thought  and  acted  for  himself  and  proved  by  a  long 
course  of  success  that  he  was  not  only  an  original  thinker,  but  a  sagacious  observer. "

When  General  Woodhull  was  mortally  wounded  in  Sept.  1776  by  the  sabres  of  the 
British  light  horse,  he  was  carried  to  a  tavern  in  Jamaica,  where  Dr.  Ogden  and  his  pupil 
Minema,  afterward  his  successor,  were  refused  permission  to  dress  his  wounds,  a  British 
surgeon  being  afterward  called  in.  For  thirty  years  after  Dr.  Jacob  Ogden's53  death  he 
was  remembered  in  Jamaica,  and  his  name  was  spoken  with  love  and  veneration.

Capt.  James  Nutman,  Jr.,  husb.  of  Elizabeth  Ogdensg,  was  a  man  of  wide  experience 
and  took  much  interest  in  public  affairs.     In  Nov.,  1736,  he  was  one  of  a  committee  "to'agree 


Ctyc  €>g&cu  <famil? 


with  Mr.  Burr  concerning  the  work  of  the  Ministry  among  us."  On  Mar.  9,  1756,  he  and 
others  were  a  committee  to  inspect  "Encroachments  on  the  Parsonage."  The  proprietors 
of  East  New  Jersey  had  originally  granted  several  lots  of  land  for  the  use  of  a  parsonage, 
there  being  but  one  organized  religious  society  at  the  time.  Aftenvard  there  were  three 
societies,  and  on  Mar.  10,  1761,  a  committee  was  appointed  to  take  proper  steps  toward 
a  division  of  said  parsonage  lands  among  the  three  church  societies,  James  Nutman,  Jr., 
being  one  of  the  committee.  But  it  seems  the  matter  was  not  adjusted  till  seven  years 
later — Mar.  8,  1768,  when  it  was  voted  by  a  large  majority  that  the  parsonage  lands  in 
Newark  should  be  divided  between  the  three  congregations,  the  First  Presbyterian  Church, 
the  Church  of  England,  and  the  Mountain  Society.  The  trustees  of  the  First  Presbyterian 
Church,  being  present,  forbid  meddling  with  the  parsonage  lands,  as  they  claimed  said  lands 
as  their  exclusive  property,  but  a  committee  was  appointed  to  settle  the  difficulty,  Thomas 
Longworth  and  Capt.  James  Nutman,  Jr.,  being  the  members  for  the  Church  of  England. 
It  was  voted  Mar.  13,  1764,  "that  the  Parsonage  Meadow  be  hired  for  the  ensuing  year, 
Nehemiah  Baldwin,  James  Nutman,  Jr.,  and  Amos  Harrison  Esq'rs  to  receive  the  Money, 
equally  to  be  paid  to  the  Priests  of  said  Town."

Isaac  Ogden^j  was  one  of  the  subscribers  to  the  first  church  at  Rockaway,  Morris  Co., 
N.  J.  The  subscription  paper  is  quite  a  curiosity,  and  is  thus  headed:  "March  2  1758  We 
the  Inhabitence  of  rockaway  pigenhil  and  upper  inhabetence  at  the  colonals  forges  and 
places  agesant  being  met  together  In  order  to  consult  together  about  a  place  to  set  a 
meting  hous  and  being  all  well  agread  that  the  most  sutable  place  for  the  hoi  setelments 
Is  upon  the  small  plain  a  letel  above  bemans  forge  which  is  below  the  first  small  brok  upon 
that  rode  up  to  Samuel  Johnson 

"and  we  the  subscribers  a  blig  ourselves  to  pay  toward  building  a  house  at  that  place 
the  sums  to  our  names  afixed. " 

Forty  persons  signed  this  paper,  and  the  same  day  another  paper  was  signed  by  twenty- 
nine  of  the  aforesaid,  which  reads:  "We  the  subscribers  do  by  these  mannefest  It  to  be  our 
desier  to  Joyn  with  pasipaney  to  call  and  settel  a  minnester  to  have  the  one  half  of  the 
preachen  at  posipaney  and  the  other  half  at  rockaway  and  each  part  to  be  eakwel  in  payen 
a  minnester." 

In  the  first  paper  the  name  is  spelled  "Isak  Ogden"  and  in  the  second  it  is  "Isaac 
Ogden." 

He  probably  removed  from  Newark,  N.  J.,  to  Ohio  in  early  life.  The  records  of  Franklin 
Co.,  Ohio,  show  that  his  son  Moses=3°  lived  and  died  there,  leaving  numerous  descendants.

in  the  sun  on  the  ridge  when  the  Revolutionary  army  was  quartered  at  Morristown,  near 
by.  He  was  a  freeholder  in  Somerset  Co.  July  17,  1753,  but  little  else  is  known  of  him.

The  "Condit  Genealogy"  says:  "Nathaniel  Condit  was  born  at  Newark,  N.  J., 
about  the  year  1703.  He  married  Elizabeth  Ogden,  of  Orange,  a  daughter  of  Swain  Ogden 
and  Mary  Ackerman,  who  was  born  in  1711,  and  died  January  10,  1785,  aged  74  years. 

"Very  little  is  known  concerning  Nathaniel.  He  lived  in  Orange,  and  the  homestead 
is  said  to  have  been  on  Scotland  street,  near  Main.  There  is  no  will  on  record.  He  died 
June  23,  1746,  at  the  age  of  43  years.  Their  graves  are  in  the  old  burying  ground,  Orange. "

The  above  marriage  is  recorded  at  East  Hampton,  L.  I.  It  agrees  with  record  in  an 
old  Bible  owned  by  Mrs.  Cortland  Drake  of  Mendham,  N.  J.,  and  which  was  doubtless  the 
family  Bible  of  "Good  Old  John'.  "  It  descended  to  John77  through  his  gr.  father  Jonathan^ 
son  of  John'.  On  a  blank  page  at  the  beginning  of  the  Book  of  Psalms  is  written  "Jonathan 
Ogden,  his  book  1697."  In  another  place  "John  Ogden  son  of  Jonathan  Ogden  Dec'd  His 
Bible  given  him  by  his  grandfather  Ogden  in  the  year  1724."  At  the  end  of  Revelations 
is  "Nov.  9  1642,  my  son  [name  unreadable]  was  born  by  gods  providence."  This  birth- 
date  is  probably  that  of  his  son  Josephs, — at  all  events  proving  that  this  rare  old  Bible 
printed  in  1599  was  once  the  property  of  John  Ogden1. 

It  is  stated  in  "  Hatfield's  Elizabeth"  that  John  Ogden77  resided  in  a  neighborhood 
about  two  miles  from  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.,  called  Sodom,  and  because  of  his  singular  piety 
was  familiarly  called  "Righteous  Lot." 

The  will  of  John  Ogden77  was  made  June  6,  1779,  and  proved  Dec.  10,  1780.  In  it  he 
bequeathed  to  gr.  sons  Jonathan  and  Ezekiel  Ogden  the  property  he  then  occupied  and 
formerly  belonging  to  his  brother  Jonathan  Ogden,  dec'd.  To  dau.  Abigail  Pierson  he  gave 
£100,  his  silver  tankard  and  one  half  his  silver  spoons.  To  dau.  Phebe  Magie  £100,  his 
silver  teapot,  milk-pot,  and  one  half  his  silver  spoons.  To  gr.  son  Jonathan  Ogden  his  desk 
(directing  that  Jonathan  give  his  father's  desk  to  his  brother  John),  his  riding-chaise,  and 
one  half  his  wearing  apparel.  To  gr.  son  Ezekiel  Ogden,  his  clock,  one  half  his  wearing 
apparel  and  the  desk  that  was  his  father's,  his  sword  and  trammels  and  andirons  in  both 
rooms,  and  his  silver  buckles.  To  gr.  children  Betsy  and  Zerviah  Ogden,  children  of  his 
son  John,  dec'd,  £10  each  when  18  yrs.  of  age  or  when  married.  He  also  names  gr.  son  John 
(not  21  yrs.  old),  gr.  dau's  Rebecca  Price  and  Mary  Earle,  also  children  of  gr.  dau.  Phebe 
Mulford,  dec'd.  His  son  John's  widow  was  to  have  one  room  in  the  house,  pasture  for  her 
cow,  and  wood  to  burn  as  long  as  she  remained  a  widow.

tftftl)  (feneration 


Robert  Ogden,  2d,  the  eldest  son  and  second  child  of  Robert  Ogden,  1st,  and  Hannah 
Crane,  his  first  wife,  was  born  at  Elizabeth  Town,  Oct.  7,  1716.  His  grandfather  and  father 
were  large  land  owners  and  both  occupied  prominent  positions  in  the  colony.  His  father 
was  Collector  of  the  County  of  Essex  in  1720  and  filled  many  similar  offices.  As  was  truth- 
fully said  upon  his  tombstone,  he  was  "a  pillar  in  both  Church  and  State.  "  He  died  in  1733, 
a  few  months  after  his  own  father  (Jonathan  Ogden),  when  Robert  2d  was  but  seventeen 
years  old.     He  left  six  children  by  his  first  marriage  and  three  by  the  second,  all  under  age. 

Robert  Ogden,  1st,  devised  to  his  son  Robert,  with  other  property,  "All  that  house  lot 
of  land  whereon  my  father's,  Jonathan  Ogden,  dwelling  house  now  stands. 

' '  Beginning  three  rods  and  a  half  southward  of  my  now  dwelling  house,  and  from  thence 
to  run  easterly  over  a  small  rock  to  Joseph  Ogden's  fence,  from  thence  southerly  to  the 
street  and  from  thence  as  the  street  runs  to  the  southwest  corner  of  the  said  house  lot,  and 
from  thence  northerly  as  the  street  runs  to  the  first  mentioned  place,  together  with  all  houses, 
buildings  or  other  appurtenances  and  privileges  thereunto  belonging.  (Which  said  house 
lot  of  land  and  premises  is  verbally  given  to  me  by  my  father,  Jonathan  Ogden,  and  designed 
by  him  to  be  given  to  me  by  his  last  will  and  testament.)  And  I  also  give  unto  my  said  son, 
Robert  Ogden,  the  one-half  part  or  equal  moiety  of  my  tanyard,  bark  house,  bark  mill, 
tan-fats,  tanner's  tools  and  all  other  appurtenances  thereunto  belonging  or  in  any  wise 
appertaining." 

This  house  was  on  the  northeast  side  of  Elizabeth  avenue,  two  blocks  east  of  Broad 
street,  and  the  tannery  property  was  on  the  opposite  side,  running  down  to  the  creek. 

Robert  Ogden,  2d,  appears  to  have  enlarged  his  patrimony  by  his  own  ability,  obtained 
an  education,  for  those  days  a  liberal  one,  and  soon  took  a  prominent  place  in  the  county 
and  state.  He  married,  when  about  twenty  years  of  age,  Phebe  Hatfield,  daughter  of  Mat- 
thias Hatfield.     She  was  born  Nov.  25,  1720,  and  died  Dec.  22,  1796. 

In  1745,  when  the  struggle  between  the  Elizabeth  Town  settlers  and  the  Board  of 
Proprietors  was  at  its  height,  Robert  Ogden  was  one  of  the  commissioners  appointed  to  raise 
money  by  subscription  to  carry  on  the  litigation  in  behalf  of  the  people,  while  his  cousin, 
David  Ogden,  of  Newark,  was  the  counsel  for  the  Proprietors. 

Dec.  24,  1751,  he  was  Recorder  of  the  Borough  of  Elizabethtown,  and  this  same  year 
he  was  elected  to  the  18th  Provincial  Assembly.  In  1755  he  was  Deputy  Secretary  of  the 
Council,  but  soon  after  was  elected  to  the  Assembly  in  place  of  John  DeHart,  and  then 
again  elected  to  the  20th  Assembly,  serving  in  the  latter  as  Speaker  until  he  resigned  in  1765, 
in  consequence  of  his  action  in  the  first  Colonial  Congress. 

Jan.  27,  1753,  Governor  Belcher  appointed  him  a  Surrogate,  and  Aug.  14th  of  the  same 
year,  "one  of  our  Clerks  in  Chancery.  "  He  was  a  great  friend  of  the  Governor,  and  is  named 
in  his  will  as  one  of  his  executors.  He  really  settled  his  estate.  In  his  letter  to  Andrew 
Belcher,  announcing  the  death  of  his  father,  which  occurred  Aug.  31,  1757,  he  says: 
"Madame  Belcher  is  at  my  house,  being  Disconsolate,  having  Lost  the  kindest  and  dearest 
of  Husbands,  you  have  Lost  a  Tender  and  an  affectionate  father,  and  I  have  Lost  a  faithful 
and  unalterable  friend." 

From  1757,  through  the  French  war,  and  until  1773,  his  papers  show  that  he  was 
Commissary  and  Barrack  Master  for  the  King's  troops. 

Aug.  3,  1761,  he  was  commissioned  Justice  and  Judge — he  had  been  a  Justice  of  the 
"Quorum"  since  1755.  Dec.  24,  1761,  "Robert  Ogden  Gentleman"  was  commissioned 
Clerk  of  the  Court  of  Essex  County,  and  March  22,  1762,  he  was  commissioned  by  Gov. 
Hardy  one  of  the  Surrogates  of  the  Orphans'  Court  of  the  Province  of  East  New  Jersey. 

In  1763  and  1766,  as  Ruling  Elder,  he  attended  the  Synod  of  New  York  and  New 
Jersey. 

When  the  Stamp  Act  was  passed  and  the  people  of  all  the  Colonies  rose  in  angry 
resistance  to  its  operation,  Robert  Ogden  was  Speaker  of  the  Assembly.     Aug.  24,   1764, 


79

he  wrote  Cortland  Skinner,  Attorney-General  of  the  Province  and  a  fellow  member  of  the 
Legislature,  inclosing  a  copy  of  the  communication  sent  out  by  the  committee  of  the  Mas- 
sachusetts Representatives,  for  his  perusal  and  advice.  He  says:  "The  affair  is  Serious 
and  Greatly  Concerns  all  the  Colonies  to  unite  and  Exert  themselves  to  the  utmost  to  Keep 
off  the  Threatening  blow,  of  Imposing  Taxes,  Duties,  etc.,  so  Destructive  to  the  Liberty's 
the  Colonies  hitherto  enjoyed."     (N.  J.  Archives,  Vol.  IX,  p.  449.) 

The  circular  letter  of  the  House  of  Representatives  of  Massachusetts,  signed  by  the 
Speaker,  recommending  a  congress  of  deputies  from  all  the  Colonial  Assemblies  to  meet  in 
New  York  in  October,  to  consult  on  the  present  circumstances  of  the  Colonies,  was  laid 
before  the  Assembly  of  New  Jersey,  June  20,  1765,  on  the  last  day  of  the  session.  The 
members  evidently  were  not  ready  to  act.  In  a  minute  made  at  a  later  session  of  the 
Assembly  they  say:  "This  House  acknowledges  the  letter  from  the  Massachusetts  Bay: 
that  it  was  on  the  last  day  of  the  session,  some  members  gone,  others  uneasy  to  be  at  their 
homes;  and  do  assert,  that,  the  then  Speaker  (Mr.  Ogden)  agreed  to  send,  nay  urged,  that 
members  should  be  sent  to  the  intended  Congress,"  but  when  this  minute  was  made  their 
refusal  to  comply  with  the  recommendation  having  been  condemned  by  the  people,  they 
threw  the  blame  on  the  Speaker,  as  follows:  "But  (the  Speaker)  changed  his  opinion  upon 
some  advice  that  was  given  to  him:  that  this  sudden  change  of  his  opinion  displeased  many 
of  the  house,  who  seeing  the  matter  dropped  were  indifferent  about  it." 

Mr.  Ogden,  as  speaker,  replied  to  the  letter  of  the  Massachusetts  House  and  said: 
"That  though  they  are  not  without  a  just  Sensibility  respecting  the  late  Acts  of  Parliament 
affecting  the  Northern  Colonies,  yet  apprehending,  whatever  Reasons  may  be  thought 
proper  to  be  urged  against  them  may  be  better  received  after  some  Time  elapses;  our 
Assembly,  on  that  Account,  and  because  the  Trade  of  this  Province  is  insignificant  in  com- 
parison of  others,  are  unanimously  against  uniting  on  the  present  Occasion.  They,  how- 
ever, cannot  but  wish  such  other  Colonies  as  think  proper  to  be  active,  every  Success  that 
they  can  loyally  and  reasonably  desire."     (N.  J.  Arch.,  Vol.  IX,  p.  496.) 

This  action  or  want  of  action  on  the  part  of  the  New  Jersey  representatives  was  not 
pleasing  to  their  constituents  and  evidently  not  more  so  to  the  Speaker.  Richard  Stockton 
in  a  letter  to  him  dated  Sept.  13th,  1765  (printed  in  full  on  pages  149  and  150,  Vol.  II  of 
the  proceedings  of  the  N.  J.  Historical  Society),  says,  "They  (the  representatives  of  the 
people)  ought  to  complain  constitutionally;  they  should  complain  to  the  King,  not  to  the 
Parliament  whose  authority  they  do  not,  and  ought  not  to  acknowledge.  .  .  .  but 
humbly  and  sensibly  petitioning  the  King,  I  think,  might  be  of  great  service.  .  .  . 
Suppose  you  should  apply  to  half  a  dozen  members,  and  sign  a  request  to  the  Governor 
to  call  you  immediately  that  you  may  reconsider  the  propriety  of  sending  deputies  to 
New  York." 

"On  his  own  authority"  Mr.  Ogden  reconvened  the  Assembly,  summoning  the  mem- 
bers to  meet  at  Amboy.  All  the  members  did  not  heed  this  irregular  summons.  Governor 
Franklin,  in  his  report  of  it  to  the  Board  of  Trade,  says:  "About  12  of  them  accordingly 
met  and  were  prevailed  upon  to  appoint  three  of  their  members  a  committee  to  go  to  New 
York."  This  assembly  appointed  as  delegates  Robert  Ogden,  Hendrick  Fisher  and  Joseph 
Borden.     The  following  is  a  copy  of  their  instructions: 

"At  a  meeting  of  a  large  number  of  the  representatives  of  the  colony  of  New  Jersey, 
at  the  house  of  Robert  Sproul,  October  3d,  1765. 

"At  the  desire  of  the  speaker  of  the  house  of  representatives  as  aforesaid;  and  at  the 
earnest  request  of  many  of  our  constituents,  to  consider  of  some  method  for  humbly,  loyally 
and  dutifully  joining  in  a  petition  to  his  majesty,  that  he  would  be  graciously  pleased  to 
recommend  to  the  Parliament  of  Great  Britain  to  redress  our  grievances  by  repealing  several 
of  the  last  acts  of  parliament  affecting  the  northern  colonies,  particularly  that  called  the 
stamp   act. 


tffftl)  eventration 


"Robert  Ogden,  Esq.,  Hendrick  Fisher,  Esq.,  and  Joseph  Borden,  Esq.,  were  directed 
to  attend  at  the  congress  now  met  at  New  York,  and  join  the  measures  there  to  be  concluded, 
for  the  purposes  aforesaid,  and  to  make  report  of  their  proceedings  therein,  at  the  next 
meeting  of  the  general  assembly. 

"  Signed  by  order,  John    Lawrence." 

This  first  congress  of  the  American  Colonies  met  at  New  York,  October  7th,  1765, 
four  days  after  the  meeting  at  Amboy.  Nine  only  of  the  Colonies  were  represented,  but 
the  Assemblies  of  New  Hampshire,  Virginia,  North  Carolina  and  Georgia  wrote  that  they 
would  agree  to  whatever  was  done  by  the  Congress.  The  three  delegates  from  New  Jersey 
were  present.  On  the  19th,  Congress  agreed  upon  a  declaration  of  rights  and  committees 
were  appointed  to  draft  petitions,  one  to  the  King,  one  to  the  lords  in  Parliament,  and  one 
to  the  House  of  Commons.  When  they  came  to  sign  these  addresses  a  difference  of  opinion 
arose.  The  majority  were  of  the  opinion  that  they  should  be  signed  and  transmitted  by  the 
Congress.  Timothy  Ruggles  of  Massachusetts,  the  speaker  of  the  Congress,  and  Robert 
Ogden  thought  that  they  should  be  forwarded  by  the  Assemblies  of  the  different  Colonies 
and  they  therefore  refused  to  sign  them. 

This  action  on  the  part  of  Robert  Ogden  was  misconstrued  by  the  people  of  New  Jersey 
and  the  popular  rage  was  kindled  against  him.  He  was  burned  in  effigy  and  from  being 
one  of  the  most  popular  men  in  the  state  he  became  for  a  time  the  most  hated.  Sabin  in 
his  "Loyalists,"  on  this  slender  foundation,  has  classed  him  as  one  of  that  number.  Indig- 
nant at  this  treatment,  Mr.  Ogden  resigned  his  position  as  Speaker  of  the  Assembly,  and 
Cortland  Skinner  was  chosen  to  succeed  him.  Popular  judgment  was  more  than  usually 
at  fault  in  this  case.  A  few  years  after,  while  Ogden,  his  sons  and  sons-in-law  were  the  most 
active  and  zealous  patriots  in  New  Jersey,  Cortland  Skinner  was  in  command  of  a  loyalist 
regiment  making  depredations  on  the  people  who  had  honored  him. 

Mr.  Ogden's  letter  resigning  his  seat  in  the  Assembly  is  as  follows: 
"Gentlemen: 

"The  present  meeting  is  in  consequence  of  the  application  of  myself  and  several  of  the 
members  of  this  House,  to  his  Excellency,  who  was  pleased  at  our  desire  to  appoint  it. 
The  House  have  now  an  opportunity  to  consider  deliberately  on  the  best  methods  to  procure 
relief  from  the  late  Acts  of  Parliament,  an  affair  of  as  delicate  a  nature,  and  of  as  much 
importance,  as  ever  came  before  the  Representatives  of  this,  or  any  other  Colony. 

"The  gentlemen  appointed  to  attend  at  the  Congress  at  New  York  will  lay  before 
you  the  several  addresses  agreed  to  there,  whereby  you  may  judge  whether  our  joining 
in  the  general  addresses  is  so  likely  to  produce  an  alleviation  of  the  burthens  we  so  justly 
complain  of. 

"  I  was  clearly  of  opinion,  that  separate  addresses  from  each  Colony  would  have  a  greater 
probability  of  succeeding,  and  therefore  I  declined  signing  them:  considering  that  as  a 
majority  of  your  commissioners  had  joined  therein,  the  Province  would  partake  of  all  the 
benefits  resulting  from  the  general  addresses,  and  if  this  House  should  not  adopt  the  senti- 
ments of  the  Congress,  they  might  be  at  liberty  to  make  a  separate  application  to  the  Crown. 

"  I  am  so  unhappy  as  to  find  that  my  conduct,  which  was  the  consequence  of  this  opinion, 
formed  on  the  most  deliberate,  impartial,  and  disinterested  reasoning  on  the  subject,  has 
been  put  in  an  unfavourable  light,  and  has  made  me  the  object  of  too  general  a  resentment; 
I  trust  that  Providence  will,  in  due  time,  make  the  rectitude  of  my  heart,  and  my  inviolable 
affection  to  my  country,  appear  in  a  fair  light  to  the  world,  and  that  my  sole  aim  was  the 
happiness  of  New  Jersey.  But,  as  at  present,  there  appears  a  great  dissatisfaction  at  my 
conduct,  that  has  spread  even  among  some  of  my  constituents,  whom  I  have  served  many 
years  in  General  Assembly,  to  the  utmost  of  my  abilities,  I   beg  leave  of  the   House,  to 

[6]  81 


C^e  OgDctt  family 


resign  my  seat  in  it,  whereby  my  constituents  may  have  an  opportunity  of  sending  another 
person  in  my  room,  who  may  act  more  agreeable  to  their  present  sentiments:  though  I 
am  well  assured,  that  no  person  can  be  found,  who  will  study  their  welfare  more  sincerely, 
nor  pursue  it  with  more  steadiness  and  integrity  than  I  have  done. 

"  I  thank  them  for  the  confidence  their  frequent  elections  has  shown  they  placed  in  me, 
and  which  I  never  abused,  and  impute  it  to  error  in  judgment  only,  to  which  all  men  are 
liable.  As  I  have  frequently  experienced  the  good  disposition  of  this  House  towards  me, 
I  hope  they  will  indulge  me,  by  accepting  the  resignation  of  my  seat  in  the  House,  and  with 
ordering  this  short  and  true  account  of  my  conduct  to  be  entered  on  their  journals." 

After  his  resignation,  Mr.  Ogden  resumed  his  private  business  at  Elizabethtown,  and 
continued  to  act  as  Commissary  for  the  King's  troops  stationed  in  New  York  and  New 
Jersey.  When  the  battle  of  Lexington  occurred  and  committees  of  observation  and  cor- 
respondence were  formed,  he  was  a  member  of  the  committee  for  Elizabethtown. 

In  1776  he  was  Chairman  of  the  Elizabethtown  Committee  of  Safety.  His  son,  Mat- 
thias, was  Col.  of  the  1st  N.  J.  Regt.  His  sons-in-law,  Col.  Oliver  Spencer  and  Maj.  Francis 
Barber,  and  his  son,  Aaron  Ogden,  were  officers  in  other  New  Jersey  regiments. 

Had  Robert  Ogden  not  thought  and  acted  as  he  did,  however,  no  doubt  he  would  have 
represented  his  State  in  the  National  Congress,  whose  members  signed  the  Declaration 
of  Independence. 

But  Elizabethtown,  after  the  battle  of  Long  Island  and  occupation  of  New  York 
and  Staten  Island  by  the  British,  was  no  longer  a  safe  place  of  residence  for  one  so  prominent 
as  he  on  the  patriot  side.  In  the  capture  of  the  British  Store  Ship,  "The  Blue  Mountain 
Valley,"  in  January,  1776,  he  and  members  of  his  family  had  been  very  active.  As  Chair- 
man of  the  Elizabethtown  Committee,  under  date  of  Feb.  10,  1776,  he  gave  the  President 
of  Congress  a  complete  account  of  the  taking  of  the  vessel,  which  may  be  found  in  the  Am. 
Archives,  4  Ser.,  Vol.  4,  page  987. 

Two  letters,  to  be  found  in  Haines'  "Hardyston  Memorial,"  pages  49  and  50,  one 
written  Oct.  7,  1776,  to  his  son-in-law,  Maj.  Francis  Barber,  and  the  other  from  his  son, 
Col.  Matthias  Ogden,  just  after  the  battle  of  Princeton,  throw  light  upon  his  removal  first 
to  Morristown  and  then  to  Sussex  County,  and  his  connection  with  the  army.  To  Col. 
Barber  he  writes: 

"We  still  continue  in  the  old  habitation,  though  almost  surrounded  by  the  regulars 
(British  troops).  They  have  been  on  Staten  Island,  a  month  on  Long  Island,  and  three 
weeks  in  possession  of  New  York,  a  large  part  of  which  is  burned  to  the  ground.  A  very 
serious  part  of  the  story — our  troops  yesterday  evacuated  Bergen — carried  off  the  stores 
and  artillery,  moved  off  as  many  of  the  inhabitants  as  could  get  away,  and  fired  all  the 
wheat  and  other  grain. 

"Your  mother  still  seems  undetermined  whether  to  stay  here  by  the  stuff,  or  remove 
to  Sussex.  A  few  days  will  determine  her,  but  perhaps  in  a  few  days  it  may  be  too  late  to 
determine  a  matter  of  this  importance.  " 

The  other  letter  is  as  follows : — 

"Morris  Town,  January  6,  1777. 

"Honorable  Sir:  I  send  you  Mr.  Lowrey's  letter,  who,  since  it  was  written,  has  desired 
me  to  inform  you  that  the  way  he  does  and  the  method  you  must  take,  is  to  apply  to  General 
Washington,  who  will  give  a  warrant  for  any  sum  of  money  you  may  apply  for  necessary 
for  carrying  on  your  commissary  department.  I  am  informed  there  is  a  complaint  here 
for  want  of  flour,  and  I  think  it  best  you  should  attend  here  yourself  as  soon  as  possible — 
where  you  will  receive  help  from  the  military  by  General  Washington's  order,  to  take  wheat 
or  any  other  necessary  for  the  army  from  such  persons  as  have  it  to  spare  without  dis- 
tressing their  families.     General  Washington  will  be  here  about  noon.     Forty  Waldeckers

were  brought  in  yesterday  by  the  militia.  The  killed,  wounded  and  prisoners  of  the  enemy 
at  Princeton  were  about  600;  our  loss  of  men  was  about  ten  or  twelve,  and  of  officers  six 
or  eight,  among  which  was  General  Mercer. 

"From  yours  dutifully,  M.  Ogden. 

"To  Robert  Ogden,  Esq.,  Sussex." 

He  owned  large  tracts  of  land  in  Sussex,  extending  from  the  head  of  the  Walkill  to 
Franklin  Furnace,  and  upon  the  mountain  to  the  east.  He  built  his  house  at  Ogdensburgh, 
his  wife  calling  it  Sparta,  in  the  hope  that  there  might  be  inspiration  in  the  name.  The 
name  has,  however,  travelled  several  miles  to  the  southward  and  the  vicinity  of  Mr.  Ogden's 
residence  is  called  after  him.  This  house  was  built  of  squared  logs  in  1777,  according  to  a 
date  which  was  cut  upon  the  chimney.  Mr.  Chambers,  in  the  Sparta  Memorial,  says:  "It 
stood  across  the  road  on  the  hill,  a  little  to  the  south  of  a  spot  exactly  opposite  to  the  present 
Hoppaugh  residence."  One  of  his  descendants  wrote  of  it:  "I  have  often  been  in  the 
house,  but  before  my  advent  it  was  handsomely  covered  with  weather  boards  and  wain- 
scotted  and  plaistered  within.  The  house  was  a  large  one,  with  a  hall  running  through  the 
center.  Four  rooms  were  on  a  floor  and  a  very  large  kitchen.  My  great-grandmother  and 
her  sister,  Bettie  Hatfield,  made  this  house  and  its  surroundings  very  beautiful.  There 
was  a  large  lawn  and  garden.  Around  the  lawn  were  set  rose  bushes,  lilacs  and  syringas 
in  regular  order.  The  whole  country  was  at  that  time  a  dense  forest."  This  house  was 
destroyed  by  fire  in  1845. 

Dr.  George  W.  Dubois  writes:    , 

"I  recently  gathered  from  the  ruins  a  few  of  the  blue  colored  bricks  which  originally 
marked  on  the  outside  of  the  chimney  in  large  figures  the  date  of  the  erection  of  the  building, 
viz:  1777.  Close  by  stands  the  house  subsequently  built  by  his  son,  Robert  Ogden,  and 
in  which  my  mother  lived  until  her  marriage." 

Here  took  place  the  celebrated  robbery  by  the  gang  of  cowboys  under  Claudius  Smith, 
a  very  graphic  description  of  which  is  given  by  Mr.  Haines  in  his  "Memorial." 

The  cowboys  ransacked  the  house  of  everything  valuable,  but  knowing  they  were 
recognized,  compelled  Mr.  Ogden,  by  threatening  to  kill  him,  to  take  a  solemn  oath  not  to 
divulge  who  they  were  or  seek  their  punishment,  an  oath  he  religiously  observed.  An 
alarm  was  sounded  the  next  morning,  however,  and  pursuit  was  made.  A  silver  sugar 
bowl,  which  the  thieves  had  dropped,  was  recovered  and  is  now  in  the  possession  of  one 
of  the  family  in  Ohio.  Other  plunder  was  subsequently  recovered.  Mr.  Ogden  afterwards 
barricaded  his  doors  and  windows  with  two-inch  plank  and  was  not  again  disturbed. 

To  his  Sussex  home  Mr.  Ogden  carried  with  him  the  religious  habits  and  zeal  which 
had  always  characterized  him.  Mr.  Chambers  in  his  "Sparta  Centennial"  says:  "In  the 
record  of  the  first  meeting  held  to  organize  the  church  of  Hardyston,  which  was  the  name 
by  which  this  church  was  then  called,  the  residence  of  Robert  Ogden,  Esq.,  is  spoken  of  as 
'the  present  and  most  usual  place  of  meeting  of  said  congregation.'  This  was  Nov.  23, 
1786,  and  it  is  said  by  good  authority  that  meetings  were  held  and  preaching  services  con. 
ducted  from  the  year  1780.  The  regular  organization  was  undoubtedly  an  outgrowth  of 
the  godly  zeal  of  the  above  Robert  Ogden  and  his  wife." 

Robert  Ogden  died  January  21,  1787,  and  was  buried  a  little  in  rear  of  the  meeting- 
house, then  not  yet  completed.  His  wife  survived  her  husband  and  died,  as  has  been  stated, 
December  22,  1796,  and  was  buried  beside  him  in  the  Sparta  churchyard. 

On  his  tombstone  is  inscribed : 

"In  public  life  both  in  Church  and  State  he  filled  many  important  offices  with  ability 
and  integrity.     In  his  private  business  he  was  upright,  eminently  useful,  active  and  diligent. 


Ctyc  €>gDen  family 


He  was  temperate  and  humane.  A  friend  to  the  poor,  hospitable  and  generous.  A  most 
faithful,  tender  and  indulgent  husband  and  parent,  and  above  all,  his  life  and  conversation 
from  his  youth  was  becoming  a  professor  of  religion  and  a  follower  of  the  blessed  Jesus." 

Upon  the  tombstone  of  Mrs.  Ogden  is  inscribed: 

"The  righteous  shall  be  had  in  everlasting  remembrance.  Sacred  to  the  memory  of 
Mrs.  Phoebe  Ogden,  widow  of  Robt.  Ogden,  Esq.,  and  daughter  of  Matthias  Hatfield,  Esq., 
and  his  wife,  Hannah  Miller,  of  Elizabethtown,  N.  J. 

"She  adorned  the  various  relationships  of  daughter,  sister,  wife  and  mother,  friend 
and  christian,  by  affection  and  love,  sincerity  and  intelligence,  resignation  and  charity, 
meekness  and  piety  in  a  very  eminent  degree.  During  the  course  of  a  long  life,  she  was 
beloved,  respected,  and  honored  by  an  extensive  acquaintance  and  numerous  progeny."

kept  the  horses  saddled,  ready  to  flee,  should  it  become  necessary.  A  short

He  studied  law  and  was  ready  to  be  admitted  to  the  bar  in  New  Haven, 
Conn.,  when  he  died.  There  is  a  family  tradition  that  David's  prospects  in 
life  were  blasted  by  a  hopeless  attachment,  he  being  in  love  with  his  niece 
Sarah  Edwards.  One  Peter  Dewitt,  a  witness  of  the  signature  of  his  will, 
testified,  Apr.  16,  1789,  that  at  the  time  of  signature,  early  in  the  preceding 
April,  David  "appeared  to  be  perfectly  rational  at  that  time  in  his  conduct 
&  conversation."  The  will  being  such  a  literary  curiosity,  a  verbatim  copy

"  Imprimis.  My  Body,  this  mass  compound  of  flesh  blood,  arteries,  bones, 
cartilages,  fibres  &  God  wot  not  all  besides.  I  commit  when  dressed  in  my 
best  suit  of  black  clothes  to  its  deep  dark,  silent,  grave,  tis  a  dismal  house  I 
am  to  dwell  in,  yea  verily  a  mournful  one,  therefore  the  dress  for  mourning 
is  the  most  proper  one  for  me,  thus  let  this  body  be  drest  for  its  coffin  which 
I  pray  be  made  of  sound  mahogany  wood  and  not  ornamented  with  brass 
nails  and  tin  plates  telling  my  name,  age  or  Death,  my  head  will  tell 
things  to  the  inquisitive  in  the  grave  ;  when  this  mass  of  corruption  is 
thus  equipped  let  it  be  borne  on  the  shoulders  of  4  sturdy  youth  to  its 
long  home,  whom  I  would  should  be  rewarded  for  their  trouble  with  a 
decent  pair  of  gloves   each.

give  him  my  best  wishes  for  his  welfare  accompanied  with  a  compliment

stars,  fly  on  the  wings  of  the  wind,  feed  the  beasts  of  the  field,  the  birds  of 
the  air,  the  insects  of  the  earth  or  the  fishes  of  the  azure  deep  waters.  Upon

than  ordinary  culture  and  ability.  He  was  clerk  of  the  Freeholders  17 73-1 7 84.  He  was 
a  fervent  patriot,  and  on  May  14,  1777,  was  made  army  surgeon  in  the  Continental  army, 
being  soon  appointed  Senior  Surgeon  of  the  United  States  hospitals.  He  was  at  the  hospital 
in  Princeton  in  1778,  as  the  following  minutes  of  the  session  of  the  Council  of  Safety  of 
October  2  will  show:  "Agreed  Dr.  Moses  Bloomfield  be  requested  to  attend  the  Board 
to-morrow  morning  at  8  O'clock  with  a  list  of  the  Physicians,  Surgeons  and  Surgeons'  mates 
attending  at  Princeton  &  the  number  of  sick  in  the  hospital  then. " 

At  Town  Meeting  held  Mar.  11,  1783,  it  was  "  Voated  that  Moses  Blumfield  be  modera- 
tor for  the  preasant  day.  "  He  was  one  of  those  to  whom  Governor  William  Franklin  granted 
a  charter  for  a  free  school  with  100  acres  of  land  for  its  maintenance,  and  was  appointed 
by  the  Governor  a  trustee  of  the  institution.

Dr.  Moses  Bloomfield  was  also  one  of  the  charter  members  of  the  Presbyterian  Church 
at  Woodbridge,  the  charter  being  granted  by  King  George,  Sept.  8,  1756.  He  was  laid  to 
rest  in  its  burying  ground,  where  a  stone  bears  the  following  inscription: 

"Dr  Moses  Bloomfield, 
40  years  Physician  and  Surgeon 
in  this  Town;  senior  Phy- 
sician and  Surgeon  in  the  Hospitals  of 
the  United  States;  Representative  in 
the  provincial  Congress  and  Ge- 
neral Assembly;  an  upright 
Magistrate;  Elder  of  the  Pres- 
byterian Church,  &c.     Born 
December  the  4th,  1729,  died  Aut. 
the  14th  1 79 1,  in  his  63d  year."

d.   1818;  dau.  of  Dr.  William  McIlvaine. 

Gov.  Joseph  Bloomfield349  was  born  at  Woodbridge,  Middlesex  Co., 
N.  J.  He  was  educated  in  the  schools  of  the  time,  and  entered  the  office  of 
Cortlandt  Skinner,  at  one  time  Attorney  General  of  the  State,  and  an  eminent 
lawyer.  Mr.  Bloomfield  was  licensed  in  1775  and  commenced  the  practice 
of  his  legal  profession  in  Bridgeton,  N.  J.  He  soon  joined  the  Continental 
army  and  rose  to  the  rank  of  Captain  of  the  Third  N.J.  Regt.,  and  remained 
in  active  service  until  1778.  "The  Judicial  and  Civil  Hist,  of  N.J."  states: 
"His  services  during  the  Revolutionary  war  were  of  a  distinguished  character, 
but  one  of  the  duties  which  he  was  called  upon  to  perform  must  have  been 
very  distasteful  to  him.  His  former  preceptor,  Cortlandt  Skinner,  was  at 
one  time  favorable  to  the  cause  of  the  colonies,  but  later  on  he  changed  his 
course  and  became  a  Royalist,  still  retaining  his  office  of  Attorney  General 
of  this  State.  A  letter  which  he  wrote  to  his  brother,  a  Lieutenant  Colonel 
in  the  British  army,  was  intercepted  and  orders  given  for  his  arrest.  Capt. 
Bloomfield  was  deputed  to  perform  that  service,  but  fortunately  for  him, 
certainly  for  the  District  Attorney,  Skinner  had,  in  some  manner,  received 
an  intimation  of  his  intended  arrest  and  had  left  the  State." 

While  in  the  army,  Capt.  Bloomfield  was  appointed  Judge  Advocate  of 
that  part  of  it  detailed  for  service  in  the  Northern  Colonies.  He  left  the  active 
service  in  1778,  and  became  Clerk  of  the  Assembly.  When  William  Patter- 
son resigned  his  office  of  Attorney  General,  Joseph  Bloomfield349  succeeded 
him.  In  1781,  he  was  elected  Governor  as  a  Republican  over  Howell,  known 
as  a  Federalist,  and  held  the  office  until  181 2,  with  the  exception  of  the  year 
1802,  when  there  was  a  tie  in  the  vote  for  that  office  and  no  election.  He  was 
succeeded  in  1812  by  Gov.  Aaron  Ogden3is.  He  served  in  the  War  of  1812 
as  Brig.  General. 

"Joseph  Bloomfield's349  action  as  Chancellor  cannot  be  appreciated, 
as  there  is  no  record  of  any  of  his  decisions.  The  business  in  the  Court  of 
Chancery  increased  materially  during  his  term  of  office,  and  some  few  of  his 
opinions  were  reported  several  years  after  his  retirement.  He  was  undoubt- 
edly a  man  of  considerable  ability,  of  unquestionable  probity,  and  of  great 
benevolence. "

tftftl)  feneration 


He  became  successively  Vice-President  and  President  of  the  Society 
of  the  Cincinnati.  Gov.  Bloomfield34<j  took  a  very  active  interest  in  public- 
affairs,  not  only  in  politics,  but  in  many  benevolent  associations.  "He  was 
always  a  prominent  citizen  in  whatever  community  he  lived,  and  his  influence 
was  ever  exerted  for  the  right.  A  singular  circumstance  is  related  of  him, 
in  connection  with  his  office  as  Chancellor.  When  he  first  took  his  seat,  it  is 
reported  that  he  requested  that  he  should  not  be  addressed  by  the  title  of 
'Your  Excellency.'  A  very  eccentric  lawyer  was  then  a  practitioner  in  the 
court,  and  with  great  solemnity  addressed  the  Chancellor  almost  immediately 
after  this  announcement,  in  these  words:  'May  it  please  your  Excellency: 
Your  Excellency's  predecessors  were  addressed  by  the  title  of  Excellency, 
and  if  your  Excellency  pleases,  the  proper  title  of  the  Governor  of  the  State 
was  and  is,  Your  Excellency.  I  humbly  pray,  therefore,  on  my  own  behalf, 
and  on  the  behalf  of  the  bar  generally  that  we  may  be  permitted  by  your 
Excellency's  leave,  to  address  your  Excellency  when  sitting  in  the  High 
Court  of  Chancery,  by  the  ancient  title  of  Your  Excellency.'  There  was  no 
further  demur,  after  this,  on  the  part  of  the  Governor,  as  to  the  mode  in  which 
he  should  be  addressed.  He  was  twice  elected  a  member  of  Congress,  and 
died  in  1825."  Bloomfield,  N.  J.,  was  named  in  his  honor  in  1796.  Gov- 
ernor Bloomfield3-i9  and  wife  Mary  (Mcllvaine)  Bloomfield  are  not 
known  to  have  had  issue.

in  matter  of  birth.  He  was  born  in  Newark,  N.  J.,  and  graduated  at  Princeton  in  1753. 
His  diploma,  now  in  the  possession  of  Charles  F.  Southmayd,  Esq.,  is  signed  by  Aaron  Burr, 
President,  father  of  Vice-President  Aaron  Burr.  He  was  a  resident  of  Newark,  and  was 
Clerk  of  the  Prerogative  Court  from  about  1765  to  1775. 

The  Provincial  Congress  of  New  Jersey  met  at  Burlington,  N.J.,  on  June  10,  1776. 
The  first  question  debated  at  this  meeting  was  whethej  the  colony  should  declare  its  inde- 
pendence. This  was  determined  by  a  vote  of  50  to  7.  On  June  24  a  committee  was  formed 
to  draft  a  constitution;  a  report  was  made  two  days  later,  and  on  July  2  the  organic  law 
was  adopted.  "The  committee  was  a  very  able  one;  among  its  members  were  John  Cleves 
Symmes,  afterwards  one  of  the  Associate  Justices  of  the  Supreme  Court,  and  Jonathan  D. 
Sergeant,  both  able  lawyers.  The  Chairman  and  Silas  Condit  represented  Morris  County;

In  1786  Lewis  Ogdeni3*  removed  to  the  city  of  New  York,  where  he  and  Peter  Hill 
of  Newark  bought  five  blocks  at  public  sale,  being  a  part  of  the  old  De  Lancey  farm,  east  of 
Division  street  and  south  of  Grand  street.  He  was  president  of  the  St.  Cecelia  Society  from

1755 ;  d.  June  13,  18 14;  dau.  of  Samuel  Gouverneur  and  Experience 
Johnson,  his  wife. 

The  Rev.  Dr.  Uzal  Ogden"38  was  a  man  of  excellent  parts,  of  ripe  scholarship  and 
broad  sympathies.  He  was  graduated  at  Princeton  College  in  1762.  In  1770  he  prepared 
for  holy  orders,  and  in  the  summer  of  1773  went  to  England  and  was  ordained  Deacon 
and  Priest  by  the  Bishop  of  London,  at  Fulham  Palace,  Sept.  21,  1773.  Upon  his  return 
to  New  Jersey  he  entered  upon  missionary  work  in  Sussex  Co.,  where  in  1776  he  married 
Mary  Gouverneur. 

On  Easter  Monday,  Apr.  5,  1779,  it  was  unanimously  agreed  that  Uzal  Ogdems,  Warden 
of  Trinity  Ch.,  Newark,  write  to  his  son  Rev.  Uzal  Ogden,  "and  desire  him  to  visit  the 
Parish  at  Newark  &  Second  River  and  confer  with  them  respecting  his  Preaching  to  them 
&  administering  the  Sacraments  at  certain  times  as  shall  be  agreed  upon." 

On  Aug.  2,  1784,  Rev.  Uzal  Ogden  met  with  the  Vestry  of  Trinity  Ch.,  Newark,  and 
St.  John's  Ch.,  Elizabethtown,  and  proposed  to  preach  in  Trinity  Ch.,  New  York,  17  Sundays 
in  the  year,  17  Sundays  in  St.  John's  Ch.,  Elizabethtown,  and  17  Sundays  in  Trinity  Ch., 
Newark;  one  Sunday  to  be  devoted  to  the  church  of  Sussex.  Each  of  the  two  churches  to 
pay  him  in  quarterly  payments  £66-13-4  N.  Y.  currency,  exclusive  of  fees  of  office.  His 
offer  was  unanimously  accepted.  Wharton  Dickinson  says  he  was  assistant  rector  at  Old 
Trinity,  New  York,  from  the  above  year  to  1788,  when  he  was  called  to  the  rectorship  of 
Trinity  Ch.,  Newark,  N.  J.,  and  the  following  year  to  that  of  St.  John's,  Elizabeth,  N.  J., 
serving  both  parishes  jointly  until  1805. 

In  1792  Rev.  Uzal,  Abraham  and  Moses  Ogden  were  connected  with  the  rebuilding 
of  the  Academy  in  Newark  that  had  been  burned.  At  a  meeting  of  the  Academy  officers 
in  Dec.  1794  it  was  resolved  that  Rev.  Uzal  Ogden  be  empowered  to  sell  the  negro  man 
James,  donated  by  Mr.  Watts  to  the  Academy,  for  as  much  money  as  the  negro  would  com- 
mand. It  is  evident  that  Rev.  Uzal  owned  slaves  and  land,  and  the  records  facetiously 
state  that  the  slaves  raised  corn,  the  hogs  ate  the  corn,  and  in  turn  the  slaves  ate  the  hogs, 
leaving  small  profit  for  the  master. 

During  his  ministry  he  became  afflicted  with  throat  trouble  that  so  impaired  his  voice 
one  half  of  his  congregation  were  unable  to  hear  him.  This  occasioned  serious  disaffection 
and  discussion,  and  at  a  meeting  held  June  4,  1803,  it  was  resolved  that  they  recommend 
to  the  Vestry  and  Wardens  that  Dr.  Ogden  be  removed  and  another  rector  be  called  to  his 
place.  The  records  state  "that  in  making  this  recommendation  we  do  not  intend  to  reflect 
upon  the  conduct  of  Doct.  Ogden."  All  voted  for  the  resolution  except  Moses  and  Charles 
Ogden,  and  after  a  lively  discussion  it  was  agreed  to  offer  Dr.  Ogden  a  pension  for  life  of 
$250  a  year  or  £500  in  five  annual  installments  if  he  would  deliver  up  the  church  property 
of  every  kind  in  his  possession. 

In  1798  he  received  the  degree  of  D.D.  from  Princeton,  and  was  also  elected  first  Bishop 
of  New  Jersey,  but  the  general  convention  refused  to  ratify  the  election,  owing  to  serious 
differences  between  Dr.   Ogden  and  his  parishioners  on  questions  of  doctrine.

He  withdrew  from  the  Prot.  Epis.  Ch.  in  1805  and  united  with  the  Presbyterian  Ch. 
but  without  a  charge.  He  was  a  man  of  advanced  spiritual  attainments,  and  gave  the  early 
Methodists   much   counsel   and  encouragement   during   their   persecutions. 

In  1826  the  city  of  Newark  received  a  bequest  of  $4000  from  the  estate  of  the   Rev. 
Dr.  Uzal  Ogden^  for  the  education  and  support  of  poor  orphaned  children.

Having  pronounced  ability  and  equipments  for  mercantile  life,  he  entered 
into  partnership  with  John  Jacob  Astor,  Sr.,  of  New  York,  in  the  year  181 6 
for  business  in  China.  Mr.  Ogden  took  up  his  residence  in  Canton,  and  an 
extensive  and  lucrative  trade  was  the  result.  He  died  in  1823,  and  Mr.  Astor 
took  charge  of  all  the  firm's  papers,  and  disputed  Mr.  Ogden's  claims.  In 
the  year  1840,  Samuel  Gouverneur  Ogden4°6  undertook  the  settlement  of 
his  deceased  brother's  estate  and  employed  the  expert  lawyer  Charles  O'Connor 
as  chief  counsel.  After  16  years  of  legal  battle,  Mr.  Ogden  gained  the  suit, 
and  Mr.  Astor  compromised  for  $200,000. 

The  Newark  Sentinel  of  Freedom  of  Mar.  2,  1824,  had  the  following: 
"At  Canton  (China)  on  the  15th  of  Aug.  Mr.  Nicholas  G.  Ogden  in  the  47th 
year  of  his  age.  Eldest  son  of  the  Rev.  Dr.  Ogden,  dec'd.  Few  men  have 
been  more  highly  and  deservedly  esteemed,  or  more  deeply  regretted  by  a 
numerous  circle  of  friends  than  Mr.  Ogden.  He  had  resided  in  China  for  many 
years,  as  agent  for  one  of  our  most  respectable  mercantile  houses,  and  was 
on  the  eve  of  returning  to  his  home  and  family."

to  have  been  a  lawyer.

June  25,  1780;  m.  Mar.  14,  1763,  Rev.  James  Caldwell,  b.  Apr.  1734; 
d.  Nov.  24,  1 781 ;  son  of  John  Caldwell  and  Margaret  Phillips,  his  wife. 

The  Caldwells  were  of  Scotch  descent.  John  Caldwell  married  Margaret  Phillips  in 
Co.  Antrim,  Ireland,  and  with  four  single  sisters  came  to  America  early  in  1700  and 
first  settled  at  Chestnut  Level,  Lancaster  Co.,  Pa.,  but  soon  removed  and  located  on 
"Cub  Creek,"  a  branch  of  the  Staunton  river,  in  what  is  now  Charlotte  Co.,  Va.  He  had  a 
dau.  Martha  who  was  mother  to  John  Caldwell  Calhoun  of  S.C.,  and  here,  in  the  wilderness, 
James,  the  youngest  of  seven  children  was  born  in  Apr.  1734.  The  place  was  generally  known 
as  "The  Caldwell  Settlement,"  or  "Cub  Creek." 

James  Caldwell  was  prepared  for  college  under  the  tutorage  of  Rev.  James  Todd, 
and  entered  Princeton  College  at  15  yrs.  of  age,  when  the  institution  was  located  in  Newark. 
He  graduated  in  Sept.  1759  and  pursued  theological  studies  under  Pres.  Davies.  He  was 
licensed  by  the  Presbytery  of  New  Brunswick  July  29,  1760;  was  ordained  Sept.  17,  1760, 
and  appointed  to  supply  southern  vacancies,  especially  those  in  the  Carolinas. 

He  was  called  to  the  pastorate  of  the  Presbyterian  Church,  Elizabethtown,  in  Nov. 
1761,  and  was  installed  in  Mar.  1762,  with  an  annual  salary  of  £160.  On  Mar.  14,  1763, 
just  one  year  after  entering  this  pastorate,  he  married  Hannah  Ogden"h,  dau.  of  Judge 
John  Ogden46,  of  Newark,  N.J. 

When  Whitefield  was  on  his  way  from  Philadelphia  to  New  York  he  preached 
morning  and  evening  in  Mr.  Caldwell's  church,  the  privilege  being  denied  by  the  Rev. 
Mr.  Chandler,  rector  of  St.  John's. 

Rev.  Mr.  Caldwell  was  of  an  ardent  temperament  and  entered  at  once  into  the  full 
discussions  of  the  great  questions  underlying  the  colonial  struggle  for  freedom,  both  from 
his  pulpit  in  sermons  and  prayers,  and  in  his  pastoral  intercourse.  No  religious  society 
took  a  bolder  stand  for  independence  than  his  church,  from  which  congregation  40  com- 
missioned officers  alone  went  forth,  not  counting  the  many  non-commissioned  officers  and 
privates,  and  at  the  request  of  his  soldier  congregation  Mr.  Caldwell  entered  the  field  as 
their  chaplain.  He  took  an  active  part  in  military  operations,  and  his  patriotism  and  fervent 
zeal  led  the  British  to  call  him  "The  Black  Rebel,"  and  the  patriots  "The  Fighting  Parson." 
The  Journals  of  Congress  show  that  on  Mar.  15,  1777,  $200  were  ordered  to  be  "paid  Rev. 
James  Caldwell  of  Elizabeth  Town  for  extraordinary  services,"  and  on  May  27,  $4,873.54 


^>trtl)  (Alteration 


were  ordered  to  be  "paid  Rev.  James  Caldwell  for  the  services  of  a  company  of  light  horse, 
Capt.  Jacob  Wynans,  their  horsehire  and  expenses."  He  also  acted  as  Ass't  Commissary 
General.  His  house  at  Elizabethtown  was  burned  by  the  Hessians  and  Tories  who  tried 
to  capture  him,  but  he  moved  his  family  away,  and  as  often  as  possible  returned  to  preach 
to  his  people.  On  one  occasion  he  preached  with  loaded  pistols  lying  on  his  pulpit,  while 
sentinels  watched  outside. 

Despite  the  fact  that  his  wife  was  cruelly  shot  and  killed  by  a  British  soldier  at  Con- 
necticut Farms,  June  25,  1780,  "Mr.  Caldwell  continued  in  the  discharge  of  the  various 
duties  to  which,  in  these  several  capacities,  he  was  called,  month  by  month,  until  the  autumn 
of  1781.  The  last  record  made  of  him  by  the  Presbytery  was  meeting  May  7,  1782,  at  New 
Providence.  It  is  in  these  words:  'The  Revd  James  Caldwell  departed  this  life,  falling 
by  the  hands  of  a  Cruel  Murderer,  on  the  24th  of  November,   1781.' 

"The  funeral  services  were  performed  on  Tuesday,  the  27th,  the  whole  town  suspending 
all  business  and  gathering  in  uncontrollable  grief  at  the  house  of  Mrs.  Noel.  The  Rev.  Dr. 
Alex.  McWhorter  of  Newark  performed  the  services,  and  preached  from  Ecc.  viii:  8. 
An  opportunity  was  given  the  people  to  view  the  corpse,  in  front  of  the  house  in  the  open 
street.  After  all  had  taken  their  last  look,  and  before  the  coffin  was  closed  Dr.  Boudinot 
came  forward,  leading  nine  orphan  children,  and  placing  them  around  the  bier  of  their 
parent,  made  an  address  of  surprising  pathos  to  the  multitude  in  their  behalf. 

"Mr.  Caldwell  left  but  a  scanty  patrimony  at  the  best.  The  Hon.  Elias  Boudinot 
cheerfully  took  upon  himself  the  administration  of  the  estate  and  the  care  of  the  children. 
The  patrimony  was  eventually  rendered  productive,  the  children  were  well  educated,  and 
all  of  them  became  respectable  and  useful.  They  were,  also,  greatly  befriended  by  Mrs. 
Noel,  Gen'l  Lincoln,  President  Washington,  and  the  Marquis  de  La  Fayette." — "Hat- 
field's Elizabeth." 

A  marble  slab  was  placed  over  the  graves  of  Rev.  Caldwell  and  his  wife  in  the  First 
Pres.  ch.  yd.,  Elizabeth,  inscribed  as  follows: 

"SACRED  TO  THE  MEMORY 

Of  the  Revd  James  Caldwell  &  Hannah  his  Wife

By  the  joint  action  of  the  committee  of  the  First  Pres.  Ch.  and  the  Cincinnati  of  New

priate ceremonies,  Nov.  24,  1845,  a  commemorative  address  being  delivered  by  the  Rev 
Samuel  Miller,  D.D.,  of  Princeton,  N.  J.  The  marble  slab  was  then  imbedded  in  the  rear 
wall  of  the  church.

Epis.  faith.  In  early  life  he  went  to  Colebrook,  Conn.,  where  he  was  employed  as  clerk  for  an 
Englishman  named  Smith,  who  owned  and  operated  an  iron-works,  and  at  which  place  he 
married  Jerusha  Rockwell  in  1772.  At  the  opening  of  the  Revolution,  Mr.  Smith  returned 
to  England,  leaving  the  iron-works  in  charge  of  Jacob  Ogden,  but  the  works  were  acci- 
dentally burned  Aug.  30,  1781.  Jacob  then  removed  to  Hartford  where  he  became  an  enter- 
prising merchant.  He  built  the  long  wooden  block  on  the  south  side  of  Ferry  street,  and  for 
his  residence  the  building  on  State  street  formerly  known  as  the  "Exchange  Hotel,"  which 
was  burned  a  few  years  ago.  He  lost  much  money  in  connection  with  the  building  of  the 
"State  House,"  being  paid  in  lands  having  defective  titles,  and  being  seriously  embarrassed, 
he  removed  to  Washington  Bridge,  between  Milford  and  Stratford,  where  he  kept  a  public 
house.  In  1804  he  opened  a  hotel  in  New  Haven  which  was  for  twenty  years  celebrated  as 
the  "Coffee  House." 

Jacob  Ogden'Sj  was  an  energetic  man,  of  strong  social  qualities,  witty  and  quick  at 
repartee.  He  was  a  vestryman  in  Christ  Church,  Hartford,  having  been  a  liberal  subscriber 
toward  its  erection.  The  original  subscription  paper,  dated  Nov.  28,  1786,  and  still  among 
the  parish  papers,  has  the  following  entries  among  the  many  donations:  "John  Morgan 
£36;  Jacob  Ogden  £24;  John  Thomas  £20;  Samuel  Cutter  £10;  Major  John  Caldwell 
£10  in  pure  spirits;  John  Chenward  one  hogshead  Molasses;  Barnabas  Deen  £10  in  building 
material  or  in  rum;  Noah  Webster  Jr.  seven  dozen  spelling  books  £3."  Jacob  Ogden 
and  John  Morgan  agreed  with  Ebenezer  Clark,  joiner,  to  finish  the  church.  One  entry  reads: 
"Mr  Jacob  Ogden  had  been  engaged  to  furnish  a  dinner  for  the  clergy,  bill  £4-13-  on  the 
occasion  of  the  settlement  of  Rev.  Menzias  Raynor  of  Elizabeth,  N.  J.  Nov  n  1801,  a  very

kinson, his  wife,  of  Livingston  Manor,  N.  Y.  Sarah  Hanson  was  sister 
to  Capt.  John  Wilkinson  Hanson  of  the  British  army. 

The  Hon.  Isaac  Ogden'74  was  doubtless  born  in  Newark,  N.  J.  He  graduated  in  the 
first  class  that  went  out  of  King's,  now  Columbia  College,  chose  the  law  for  his  profession, 
and  became  a  distinguished  jurist.  Newark  tradition  says  that  at  the  outbreak  of  the  Revo- 
lution his  father  Judge  David  Ogdenso  and  all  his  sons  took  the  patriotic  side,  and  that  the 
son,  Isaac  Ogden  '  '4,  delivered  a  stirring  address  to  a  mass  meeting  from  a  platform  extended 
from  the  second  story  of  the  old  court  house,  Newark,  which  stood  on  the  west  side  of  Broad 
street,  oposite  the  present  Presbyterian  church.  But  in  the  latter  part  of  1776  the  old  Judge 
and  his  sons  Isaac 74,  Nicholas'81,  and  Peter  182  affiliated  with  the  Royalist  party,  and  their 
property  was  condemned  and  sold  during  the  war.  However,  Isaac's  brothers  Abraham 
and  Samuel  remained  stanch  and  active  patriots. 

Judge  Isaac  Ogden" 74  was  said  to  have  built  a  store  on  the  northeast  corner  of  Broad 
and  Market  streets,  Newark,  where  the  First  National  Bank  now  stands.  His  house  in 
Newark  was  alternately  the  residence  of  the  British  General  and  the  American  Commander 
as  either  party  happened  to  be  successful.  "In  this  way  his  young  family  became  subject 
to  all  the  horrors  attending  a  residence  in  the  seat  of  war."  But  his  loyalty  to  the  mother 
country  becoming  pronounced,  he  sought  safety  as  a  refugee  in  New  York;  and  when  the 
British  evacuated  that  section  in  1783  he  abandoned  his  property  and  prospects  and  took 
his  family  to  England.  There  is  every  evidence  that,  like  his  father,  he  was  honest  in  his 
convictions,  for  several  biographers  represent  him  as  a  man  of  sterling  integrity  and  of  great 
moral  worth. 

The  sufferings  he  had  undergone,  and  the  sacrifices  he  had  made,  together  with  his 
learning  and  legal  ability,  attracted  the  attention  of  the  English  government,  and  after  the 
close  of  the  war  he  was  appointed  Judge  of  the  Admiralty  at  Quebec  by  King  George  III. 
in  the  year  1788.  He  at  once  re-crossed  the  ocean  and  established  his  family  in  Quebec, 
where  his  natural  energy  of  character  enabled  him  to  retrieve  much  of  his  losses,  although  his 
salary  was  small  in  meeting  the  demands  of  the  rank  he  was  obliged  to  assume.  "  His  manner 
on  the  bench  was  impressive  for  its  energy  and  acuteness,  and  his  legal  opinions  were  delivered 
with  perspicuity  and  decision." 

During  the  administration  of  Lord  Dorchester,  he  was  appointed  one  of  the  Puisne 
Judges  of  the  Dist.  of  Montreal  and  he  immediately  removed  his  family  to  the  latter  city.

While  attending  to  his  judicial  duties  he  was  taken  with  a  "painful  and  incurable  disease 
brought  on  by  the  sedentary  nature  of  his  profession."  When  not  in  bed  he  never  failed  to 
appear  in  his  seat  on  the  bench,  but  the  heroic  struggle  had  to  be  given  up,  and  in  1818 
his  general  health  was  such  he  sailed  for  England  for  medical  assistance  and  underwent  two 
painful  and  dangerous  operations,  but  they  did  not  stay  the  disease.  His  advanced  age 
was  against  him  in  this,  but  his  cheerful  disposition  did  not  desert  him,  and  he  still  mani- 
fested great  strength  of  intellect.  He  took  continuous  interest  in  all  public  affairs  and  had 
the  various  publications  of  the  day  read  to  him  by  a  member  of  his  family.  As  the  end 
approached  he  expressed  great  happiness  in  being  peculiarly  fortunate  in  being  surrounded 
by  his  devoted  wife  and  so  many  of  his  children  and  grandchildren.  "It  was  a  blessing," 
he  said,  "allowed  to  but  very  few  at  85." 

An  English  biographer  adds:  "Such  were  the  last  moments  of  this  exemplary  man, 
and  such  were  the  consolatory  feelings  and  strong  hope  which  actuated  him  at  this  awful 
period,  that  it  could  have  sprung  from  no  source  but  a  deep  and  well-founded  confidence 
in  the  promises  of  revelation,  and  a  calm  conscience  arising  from  a  well-spent  life.  .  .  . 
It  deserves  to  be  mentioned  as  a  proof  of  the  estimation  in  which  the  long  and  tried  services 
of  Mr.  Ogden  were  held,  that  our  gracious  Sovereign  specially  recommended  to  the  Colonial 
Legislature,  to  make  a  more  suitable  provision  for  his  declining  age,  and  for  his  widow  in 
case  of  her  surviving  him,  a  measure  they  had  not  adopted  at  the  time  of  his  death." 

Judge  Isaac  Ogden's  last  will  states,  "I,  Isaac  Ogden,  of  the  town  of  Taunton,  Somerset 
Co.  England,  one  of  His  Majesty's  Justices  of  the  Court  of  the  Kings  Bench  for  the  District 
of  Montreal,  Canada,  this  13th  day  of  Feb.  1823.  Since  making  former  wills  have  removed 
to  England  for  the  recovery  of  my  health,  many  changes  having  taken  place,  the  death  of 
my  eldest  son  David,  I  leave  all  to  my  wife  Sarah  Ogden,  either  in  England  or  America, 
and  after  her  death  to  her  children  and  grand  children." 

Mary  (Browne)  Ogden,  first  wife  of  Judge  Isaac  Ogden' 74,  was  dau.  of  Rev.  Isaac 
Browne,  formerly  of  Brook-Haven,  L.  I.  He  was  graduated  from  Yale  College  in  1729, 
was  accounted  "a  man  of  talents  and  education,"  and  made  rector  of  Trinity  P.  E.  Church, 
Newark,  N.  J.,  in  1744.  Mary  (Browne)  Ogden  was  buried  in  Newark,  her  epitaph  reading 
as  follows:  "Mary,  the  wife  of  Isaac  Ogden,  Esq., — here  rested  from  the  hurry  of  life,  on 
the  15th  of  March,   1722,  aged  26  years. 

"Could  the  softness  which  adorned, — could  the  piety  and  benevolence  which  endeared 
human  nature, — could  tenderest  friendship  or  purest  love  disarm  the  king  of  terrors, — she 
had  not  died." 

Sarah  (Hanson)  Ogden,  second  wife  of  Judge  Isaac  Ogden'74,  "was  a  lady  of  rank  and 
endowments,  every  way  equal  to  the  station  she  filled.  Being  descended  from  one  of  the 
first  families  who  had  emigrated  to  the  now  United  States,  she  brought  him  a  large  fortune 
which  she  inherited  in  her  own  right;  but  her  property  as  well  as  that  of  her  husband  was 
lost  in  the  revolutionary  convulsion."  Hers  is  the  only  gravestone  inscription  in  the  grave- 
yard at  Three   Rivers,   Canada. 

Many  of  the  descendants  of  Judge  Isaac  Ogden  174  are  still  living  in  Canada.

John  Greig  Ogden'47s,  a  descendant  of  Abraham  Ogden1?6,  contributes  the  follow- 
ing biography: 

"Abraham  Ogden,  the  third  son  of  David  Ogden,  was  born  at  Newark,  N.  J.,  in  1743. 
He  married  Sarah  Frances  Ludlow,  daughter  of  Thomas  Ludlow,  a  wealthy  and  prominent 
citizen  of  New  York. 

"He  became  a  distinguished  lawyer,  and  is  said  to  have  had  no  equal  before  a  jury. 
He  was  also  Surrogate  of  Morris  Co.,  N.  J.,  holding  the  office  for  many  years,  and  residing 
in  Morristown  until  the  end  of  the  Revolutionary  War.  He  then  removed  to  Newark,  N.  J., 
having  been  appointed  by  Washington  as  the  first  U.  S.  Attorney  for  that  District,  and 
died  there  in  1798  at  the  early  age  of  55,  leaving  a  large  family.  It  was  the  good  fortune 
of  Mr.  Ogden  and  his  family  to  be  on  terms  of  friendly  intercourse  with  Washington,  who, 
while  a  portion  of  the  Continental  Army  was  quartered  at  or  near  Morristown,  passed  much 
of  his  time  at  the  house  of  his  friend  'Squire  Ogden,'  as  he  was  then  called.  It  appears 
that  the  General  took  a  particular  interest  in  his  host's  son  Thomas  Ludlow,  and  would 
often  make  his  rounds  among  the  army  with  the  boy  mounted  before  him  on  his  saddle. 
It  was  about  this  time  that  the  following  incident,  not  without  historic  interest,  occurred. 
The  General,  seeing  a  pair  of  foils,  playfully  challenged  his  young  companion  to  a  fencing 
match.     After  a  few  thrusts,  the  button  flew  off  the  boy's  foil,  the  unprotected  point  of 


C^e  ^DgtieiT  family 


which  penetrated  the  General's  hand,  inflicting  a  slight  flesh  wound  and  drawing  the  only- 
blood  shed  by  him  during  the  war.  The  Royalist  sentiments  of  the  boy's  grandfather 
David  Ogden,  'the  old  Judge,'  as  he  was  called,  were  well  known  in  the  community,  and 
the  report  got  abroad  that  an  attempt  had  been  made  to  assassinate  the  Commander  in 
Chief  while  among  his  Tory  friends.  The  anecdote,  as  a  matter  of  family  history,  is  well 
authenticated. " 

Abraham  Ogden1?6  was  member  of  the  Legislature  of  New  Jersey  in  1790,  and  was 
U.  S.  Dist.  Attorney  1792-8.  Some  of  the  most  eminent  men  of  the  country  studied  law  in 
his  office,  among  them  being  Richard  Stockton,  Gabriel  Ford  and  Josiah  Ogden  Hoffman. 

Gen.  Washington  appointed  him  a  commissioner  to  obtain  the  relinquishment  of  a 
title  which  the  Iroquois  Nation  of  Indians  held  to  a  part  of  northern  New  York  state.  This 
gained  for  him  a  knowledge  of  the  country  lying  south  of  the  St.  Lawrence  river,  and  resulted 
in  the  purchase  of  a  large  tract  of  country  by  himself,  his  brother  Samuel  Ogden,  Gouverneur 
Morris,  Nicholas  Hoffman,  Richard  Harison,  and  Stephen  Van  Rensselaer,  and  Ogdensburg 
was   founded.

Col.  Samuel  Ogden1?8  was  born  in  Newark,  N.  J.,  was  a  prominent  Episcopalian,  and 
an  ardent  patriot  during  the  Revolutionary  War,  in  which  service  he  was  a  Colonel  of  N.J. 
Militia.  He  was  a  man  of  great  business  tact  and  energy,  and  operated  an  iron  works  at 
Boonton,  N.  J.  The  following  advertisement  appeared  in  the  New  York  Packet  of 
Sept.  27,   1781: 

"The  Nail  Manufactory  is  now  carried  on  at  Booneton  near  Morris  Town,  in  all  its 
branches,  where  any  quantity  may  be  had  at  moderate  terms,  on  the  shortest  notice;  made

Iron  was  shipped  to  England  free  of  duty,  but  had  to  pay  tribute  to  the  British  treasury 
if  used  in  this  country.  Col.  Samuel  Ogden  had  a  grist-mill  at  Boonton  which  could  con- 
veniently turn  out  grist,  but  in  which  contraband  iron  was  said  to  be  manufactured,  it 
being  a  slitting  mill  for  the  production  of  nail  rods.  The  patriotic  colonists,  not  being  on 
good  terms  with  the  mother  country,  were  at  this  time  considering  such  taxation  very 
unjust  burdens.  When  it  became  rumored  that  Col.  Samuel  Ogden's  grist-mill  was  turning 
out  slitted  iron,  Gov.  Franklin  and  suite  came  to  investigate.  "It  is  said  that  the  very 
excellent  dinner  prepared  by  Mrs.  Ogden  and  the  more  potent  fact  that  the  Governor  was 
himself  pecuniarily  interested  in  the  mill,  led  him  to  say  as  he  with  some  parade  looked  at 
the  little  grist-mill,  then  grinding  corn,  that  'he  knew  there  was  nothing  in  the  story.' 

As  given  in  the  biography  of  his  brother  Abraham- 76,  Col.  Samuel  Ogden  was  one  of 
the  landed  company  that  bought  a  large  tract  in  northern  New  York  south  of  the  St.  Law- 
rence.    The  following  advertisement  is  from  the  Albany  Gazette  of  June  7,  1787: 

"Ten  townships  of  unappropriated  lands  on  the  south  side  of  the  St.  Lawrence  River 
will  be  sold  at  public  vendue  at  the  Coffee  House  in  the  City  of  New  York  July  10,  1787. 
Madrid  and  Oswegatchie  will  be  sold  by  single  lots  or  mile  squares: — the  balance  by  quarters 
of   Townships." 

The  principal  purchaser  was  Alexander  Macomb,  who  subsequently  acted  a  distinguished 
part  in  the  northern  purchases.  On  May  3,  1792,  Macomb  conveyed  to  Col.  Samuel  Ogden, 
in  trust  for  himself,  Gen.  Henry  Knox,  Robert  Morris,  and  Gouverneur  Morris,  for  £3200, 
the  four  townships  of  Hague,  Cambray,  Oswegatchie  and  DeKalb,  with  the  stipulation 
that  Col.  Ogden  should  convey  to  Gen.  Knox  44,114  acres,  to  Robert  Morris  60,641  acres, 
and  to  Gouverneur  Morris  60,641  acres  of  this  tract.  This  left  Col.  Ogden  90,000  acres, 
all  of  Oswegatchie  and  a  part  of  DeKalb,  Cambray  and  Madrid  townships.  Col.  Ogden 
sold  DeKalb  to  Judge  William  Cooper,  father  of  J.  Fenimore  Cooper,  the  author. 

Nov.  24,  1807,  Col.  Samuel  Ogden  moved  to  quash  indictment  of  Aaron  Burr  for  murder 
of  General  Hamilton. — Centiiiel  of  Freedom. 

Col.  Samuel  Ogden'78  was  a  very  prominent  Churchman  and  was  a  delegate  to  all 
the  conventions  from  1791  to  1809.  He  was  married  by  the  Rev.  Samuel  Seabury  on  Sunday 
Feb.  5,  1775,  to  Euphemia  Morris,  sister  of  Gouverneur  Morris  and  Lewis  Morris,  a  signer 
of  the  Declaration  of  Independence.  A  tablet  inscribed  to  her  memory  is  in  Grace  Church, 
New  York,  Broadway  and  10th  street,  which  reads,  "Euphemia  Ogden  Relict  of  Samuel 
Ogden  Esq.  of  Newark,  N.  J.  Born  Sept.  10,  1754,  Died  June  2,  1818."  "Isabella  W

during  the  Revolutionary  War,  and  "Dickinson's  Notes"  state  he  went  to  Shelbourne,  Nova 
Scotia,  in  1783,  but  returned  after  1800.  While  in  Nova  Scotia  he  received  grants  of  land 
from  the  crown,  as  appear  in  the  following  record:  "Register  of  Probate  and  Deeds  Office,

Nicholas  OgdeniSi  was  vestryman  of  Christ  Church,  Parish  St.  Patrick  and  St.  George, 
Shelbourne,  N.S.,  from  1789  to  1800.  He  was  Barrack  Master  1793-4,  Overseer  of  River 
Fishery  and  Justice  of  the  Peace  from  1784  to  1800.  His  house,  framed  from  white  oak 
and  brought  from  the  U.  S.,  is  still  standing  in  the  centre  of  the  town. 

There  is  an  inscription  at  Shelbourne  that  is  connected  with  a  pathetic  story  told  by 
the  rector  of  Christ  Church.  The  inscription  runs  thus :  "  Sacred  /  to  the  memory  of  / 
Patrick  Maxwell,  Esq.  /  Ensign  in  His  Majesty's  6th  /  or  First  Warwickshire  Infantry  / 
son  of  William  Maxwell  ,  '  of  Springkill  Bar,  N.  B.  /  who  was  unfortunately  /  upset  in  a

of  Nicholas  Ogden.  Both  were  depending  upon  one  oar  that  proved  insufficient  to  keep 
them  afloat,  and  Mr.  Ogden  made  some  reference  to  his  wife  and  children,  when  young 
Maxwell  immediately  said  there  was  no  one  depending  upon  him,  and  letting  go  the  oar 
was  drowned.     Two  other  members  of  the  same  regiment  were  also  drowned. 

Nicholas  Ogden  ■*■  returned  from  Nova  Scotia  about  1800  and  was  a  resident  of  Newark, 
N.  J.,  at  the  time  of  his  death.  The  Newark  Centinel  of  Freedom  of  Feb.  25,  i8i2,has:  "Died, 
yesterday  a.  m.  Nicholas  Ogden,  Esq.  of  Newark,  age  59."  The  same  paper  bearing  date 
Sept.  10,  1816,  has  :  "Died,  on  the  6th,  Hannah,  wife  of  the  late  Nicholas  Ogden,  Esq., 
of  Newark,  in  her  59th  year. "  The  parents  and  their  children  are  buried  in  a  little  cemetery 
on  Rector  street,  Newark,  in  the  rear  of  Trinity  Church  Chapel. 

His  will  was  dated,  New  York,  Dec.  13,  1799,  and  proved,  Newark,  June  10,  1812.  In 
it  he  speaks  of  himself  as  being  of  Shelbourne,  N.  S.,  and  names  wife  Hannah,  daughters 
Alida  and  Gertrude,  sons  Henry  and  David.  He  gives  them  one  equal  sixth  part  when 
they  shall  respectively  attain  to  the  age  of  21  years.  The  executors  were  Thomas  Barclay 
of  New  York,  Edward  Brinley  of  Shelbourne,  N.  S.,  and  nephews  David  A.  and  Thomas 
L.  Ogden,  of  New  York  City. 

All  that  is  known  of  his  children  is  from  Christ  Church  records,  parish  of  St.  Patrick 
and  St.  George,  Shelbourne,  N.  S.,  excepting  the  first  three  children,  who  were  probably 
born  in  Newark,  N.  J.

to  him  in  New  York.  Assuming  they  were  all  daughters  of  patriots,  he 
asked  concerning  her  father,  when  she  spiritedly  replied,  "My  father,  sir,

1739;  d.  May  1,  1814;  son  of  Stephen  Van  Cortlandt  and  Mary  Walton 
Ricketts,  his  wife. 

"  Bolton's  Hist,  of  Westchester  Co.,  N.  Y.,"  says:  "The  orthography  of  the  surname 
is  properly  Corte-landt ;  the  first  syllable  Corte  or  Korte,  meaning  in  the  Dutch  language 
'short,'  the  second  landt,  (land)  literally  the  short  land,  a  term  expressing  the  peculiar 
form  of  the  ancient  Duchy  of  Courland  in  Russia." 

Philip  Van  Cortlandt  was  the  eldest  of  three  children,  and  a  graduate  of  King's 
College.  He  was  a  Tory  during  the  Revolution  and  his  estates  were  forfeited.  "He  is  not 
to  be  confounded  with  his  uncle  of  similar  name,  the  Patriot  Colonel,  who  became  the  an- 
cestor of  the  Van  Cortlandts  of  Cortlandt  Manor.  He  entered  the  British  Army  as  Major 
of  the  third  Battalion,  N.  J.  Loyal  Volunteers.  After  the  war  his  estates  were  confiscated 
and  he  went  to  England.  He  d.  May  1,  1814,  and  was  buried  at  Harlsham,  where  a  mural 
monument  is  erected.     His  sons  received  commissions." 

He  is  said  to  have  had  twenty-three  children,  of  whom  we  have  seventeen.

and  baking  bread  from  the  flour  provided  for  the  patriot  troops,  which  he  carried  to  the 
army  at  Morristown.  Tradition  says  that  John  Ogden232  was  an  uncommonly  active

Abigail  Ogden235  was  dau.  of  David  Ogden62  of  Snarling  Street,  a  locality  about  two 
and  a  half  miles  east  of  Morristown,  N.  J.;  she  d.  soon  after  her  second  marriage,  from 
which  there  was  no  issue.  Enoch  Goble,  her  second  husband,  shortly  married  Mary  Cooper, 
who  doubtless  proved  an  excellent  step-mother  to  Abigail  (Ogden)  Stiles'  children,  for 
after  the  latter  reached  majority  and  were  married,  two  of  them,  John  and  James,  each 
named  a  child  for  her. 

Thomas  Stiles,  first  husb.  of  Abigail  Ogden^s,  was  son  of  Jonathan  Stiles,  of  Morris- 
town, N.  J.,  called  "Long  Jonathan"  on  account  of  his  great  size.  He  came  to  Morris  Co., 
N.  J.,  about  1726,  from  Stratford,  Conn.,  where  he  was  born,  and  where  his  ancestors  had  long 
lived.  He  is  said  to  be  the  ancestor  of  all  the  Stiles  Family  in  that  part  of  the  state.  David 
Stiles,  son  of  Thomas  Stiles,  was  made  administrator  of  his  father's  estate  in  Apr.  1803. 
The  following  eight  children  of  Thomas  and  Abigail  are  not  known  to  be  named  in  the  regular 
order  of  their  birth.

David  Gardner  and  Abigail  Peck,  his  wife. 

Jonathan  Ogden239  was  a  resident  of  Morristown,  N.  J.,  and  a  man  of  ability,  worth, 
and  influence.  From  1805  to  1812  he  was  Judge  of  the  county  court.  He  was  member  of 
the  Assembly  from  Morris  Co.  1802-4,  filling  the  office  with  great  credit.  He  was  one  of 
the  most  liberal  subscribers  to  the  fund  raised  to  purchase  the  "Morristown  Green, "  which 
was  then  owned  by  the  First  Presbyterian  Church,  and  which  a  few  public-spirited  citizens 
bought  and  presented  to  the  town,  providing  in  the  deed  of  gift  that  no  buildings  of  any 
kind  should  be  allowed  upon  it.  He  was  also  largely  instrumental  in  organizing  the  "State 
Bank  at  Morris,"  which  stood  on  the  corner  of  Bank  street  and  the  park.  The  only  mention 
of  Jonathan  Ogdenj39  now  found  on  the  pages  of  Morris  county  history  is  in  connection 
with  some  meritorious  deed. 

He  was  a  trustee  of  the  First  Presbyterian  Church,  where  he  and  his  wife  became 
members  under  the  half-way  covenant,  May  4,  1775.  He  was  doubtless  the  Jonathan 
Ogden  of  Morris  Co.  who  served  in  Capt.  Bonnell's  Co.,  1st  Reg't  of  the  Continental  army,  in 
the  Revolutionary  War.

Nathaniel  Ogden*4i  was  a  Quartermaster  in  the  Continental  Army.  He  was  at  one 
time  a  prisoner  in  the  hands  of  the  British  at  White  Plains,  and  was  one  night  approached 
by  an  officer,  who  was  a  brother  Mason,  and  told  where  he  might  find  a  horse  hidden,  and 
ready  for  a  rider.  In  the  morning  the  prisoner  was  missing.  He  was  with  Washington 
at  the  battle  of  Trenton,  and  spent  the  next  winter  in  the  camp  at  Morristown.  After  the 
Revolution  he  removed  to  Coeymans,  on  the  Hudson  River,  where  he  died.  His  claim 
against  the  Government  for  bounty  is  recorded  in  the  Land  Papers  at  Albany,  N.  Y., 
under  date  of  June  18,  1790. 

The  will  of  his  sister  Elizabeth  (Ogden)  Barnet  has  this  clause:     "To  the  children  of 
my  brother  Nathaniel,  the  sum  of  82,000  to  be  equally  divided  among  them."

Dr.  Isaac  Ogden*43  was  b.  at  Basking  Ridge,  Somerset  Co.,  N.  J.,  as  were  all  his  brothers 
and  sisters.  He  graduated  from  Princeton  in  1 784.  Upon  entering  his  profession  as  physician

his  wife  when  an  infant,  while  as  a  student  he  boarded  in  her  father's  family.  He  left  his 
first  place  of  residence,  and  after  being  a  short  time  at  White  House,  N.  J.,  he  removed  to 
New  Germantown,  N.J.  Here  he  succeeded  to  the  practice  of  Dr.  Oliver  Barnet,  his  brother-

C^e  €)gDen  family 


property  and  was  widely  known  as  a  most  estimable  and  useful  citizen.  He  became  a  mem- 
ber of  the  Medical  Society  in  1788.  During  the  latter  years  of  his  life  he  almost  abandoned 
the  practice  of  medicine,  and  acted  as  postmaster  of  the  town. 

He  was  a  man  of  purest  life,  a  practical  Christian,  promoting  the  interests  of  religion 
by  every  means  in  his  power.  He  had  the  respect  and  esteem  of  all  who  knew  him.  Sub- 
sequent to  1820  he  removed  to  New  Brunswick,  N.  J.,  where  he  died  in  1829,  and  was  buried 
in  the  graveyard  of  the  First  Reformed  Church.  His  memorial  stone  has  the  following 
inscription:  "Sacred  to  the  memory  of  Dr.  Isaac  Ogden,  who  departed  this  life  on  the 
6th  of  May  1829,  in  the  66th  year  of  his  age.  A  kind  husband,  an  affectionate  father,  an 
humble  Christian."

Col.  Oliver  Spencer  was  b.  at  East  Haddam,  Conn.  The  Spencer  family  originated 
there,  where  two  of  the  name  were  among  the  first  settlers,  in  1662.  He  came  to  Elizabeth- 
town,  N.  J.,  where  he  married  and  remained  until  late  in  life,  when  he  removed  to  Cincin- 
nati, O.,  where  both  he  and  his  wife  died  and  were  buried  at  Wesley  Chapel. 

He  was  a  deacon  in  the  First  Pres.Ch.,  Elizabeth,  N.  J.,  and  took  an  active  part  in  the 
Revolutionary  War,  attaining  the  rank  of  Colonel  of  N.  J.  troops. 

A  slab  in  Wesley  Chapel  reads:  "In  memory  of  Colonel  Oliver  Spencer,  who

Soldier,  a  Friend,  a  Patriot,  and  above  all  a  Christian."  The  slab  contains  also  his  wife's 
epitaph.

College  of  N.  J.,  and  Sarah  Pierpont,  his  wife. 

Hon.  Timothy  Edwards  and  wife  resided  at  Stockbridge,  Mass.,  until  1762,  when  they 
removed  to  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.;  they  returned  to  Stockbridge  in  1770,  where  they  are 
buried. 

Rhoda  {Ogden)  Edwards  died  at  Litchfield,  Conn.,  while  visiting  friends.  She  was  a 
remarkable  woman,  loyal  and  conscientious.  An  autobiography  of  a  nephew  by  marriage 
has  this  important  entry:  "In  the  summer  of  1809  I  met  my  cousin  Aaron  Burr  at  the  house 
of  our  common  uncle  Hon.  Timothy  Edwards  in  Stockbridge.  .  .  .  The  day  after  Burr  left 
our  uncle's  I  called  at  the  house  to  talk  over  the  impressions  of  this  unwonted  visit.  My 
aunt  was  a  venerable  and  pious  woman.  '  I  want  to  tell  you  cousin,'  said  she,  'the  scene  I 
passed  through  this  morning.  When  Col.  Burr's  carriage  had  driven  up  to  the  door,  I  asked 
him  to  go  with  me  into  the  north  room,  and  I  cannot  tell  you  how  anxious  I  felt,  as  I,  an 
old  woman,  went  through  the  hall  with  that  great  man  Col.  Burr,  to  admonish  him,  and 
to  lead  him  to  repentance.  After  we  were  by  ourselves  I  said  to  him:  "Colonel  Burr,  I 
have  a  thousand  memories  associated  with  you.  I  took  care  of  you  in  your  childhood, 
and  I  feel  the  deepest  concern  over  your  erring  steps.  You  have  committed  a  great  many 
sins  against  God,  and  you  killed  that  great  and  good  man  General  Hamilton.     I  beseech

you  to  repent,  and  fly  to  the  blood  and  righteousness  of  the  Redeemer  for  pardon.  I  cannot 
bear  to  think  of  you  as  being  lost,  and  I  often  pray  most  earnestly  for  your  salvation." 
The  only  reply  he  made  me,'  continued  the  excellent  old  lady,  'was,  "Oh!  aunt,  don't  feel 
so  badly;  we  shall  both  meet  in  heaven  yet;  meanwhile  may  God  bless  you."  He  then 
tenderly  took  my  hand,  and  left  the  house.'  "

Robert  Ogden,  3D3>°  was  b.  at  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.  He  entered  the  College  of  New 
Jersey  at  16  years  of  age,  and  graduated  at  19,  in  the  year  1765.  He  studied  law  under 
Richard  Stockton,  one  of  the  signers  of  the  Declaration  of  Independence,  and  became  a 
prominent  barrister.  After  being  admitted  to  the  bar,  June  21,  1770,  Governor  Franklin 
appointed  him  Surrogate,  Apr.  1772,  in  place  of  his  father  Robert  Ogden,  2d,  who  resigned. 
His  law  office  was  located  at  Elizabeth,  and  he  soon  became  noted  as  "the  honest  lawyer." 

His  right  arm  having  been  disabled  by  a  fall,  he  could  neither  wield  a  sword  nor  handle 
a  musket,  but  he  did  good  service  as  Quartermaster  and  Commissary  during  the  Revolu- 
tion After  the  war  he  resumed  his  law  practice  and  continued  it  until  the  state  of  his  health 
obliged  him  to  remove  beyond  the  influence  of  the  sea  air.  He  inherited  a  farm  in  Sussex 
Co.,  N.  J.,  from  his  father,  and  to  this  he  retired  for  needed  rest.  He  became  a  ruling  Elder 
in  the  church  at  Sparta  and  took  up  his  full  share  of  the  labors  and  responsibilities  connected 

131 


Clje  £>8&cu  family 


with  church  work.  Having  no  ambition  for  political  distinction,  he  declined  public  office, 
and  except  representing  his  county  in  the  State  Legislature  on  one  or  more  occasions,  he 
adhered  to  the  maxim:  "The  post  of  honor  is  the  private  station."  He  died  at  Sparta 
just  before  completing  his  8oth  year.

General  Matthias  Ogden3I4  was  born  at  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.,  where  he  became  a 
tanner  and  currier.  He  was  a  man  of  marked  intelligence,  and  of  great  natural  ability. 
He  early  entered  the  Revolutionary  contest,  joining  the  Continental  army  at  Cambridge  in 
1775.  His  great  zeal  and  resolution  led  to  rapid  promotion  and  to  being  sent  in  the  expedi- 
tion against  Quebec,  the  latter  part  of  the  year  1775.  He  was  with  Arnold's  party  when 
they  made  the  unfortunate  assault  of  Dec.  3 1 ,  and  was  carried  from  the  field  severely  wounded 
in  the  shoulder.  The  same  day  Arnold  sent  an  express  to  Gen.  Washington  in  which  he 
said,  "the  loss  of  my  detachment  before  I  left  it,  was  about  twenty  men  killed  and  wounded; 
among  the  latter  is  Major  Ogden,  who  with  Capt.  Oswald,  Capt.  Burr  and  the  other  volun- 
teers behaved  extremely  well." 

Upon  his  return  to  the  main  army,  he  received  the  following  commission  of  Colonel 
of  the  First  Regiment  in  the  New  Jersey  Line: 

"In   Congress. 

"  The  Delegates  of  the  United  States  of  New-Hampshire,  Massachusetts-Bay, 
Rhode-Island,  Connecticut,  New-York,  New-Jersey,  Pennsylvania,  the  Counties  of  New- 
Castle,  Kent  and  Sussex  on  Delaware,  Maryland,  Virginia,  North-Carolina,  South-Carolina, 
and  Georgia,  To  ,,  „,   ...  .       _    ,         „ 

Matthias  Ogden,   Esquire. 

"  We,  reposing  especial  Trust  and  Confidence  in  your  Patriotism,  Valour,  Conduct  and 
Fidelity,  Do,  by  these  Presents,  constitute  and  appoint  you  to  be  Colonel  of  the  First 
Regiment  from  Jersey,  in  the  Army  of  the  United  States, for  the  Defence  of  American

Liberty,  and  for  repelling  every  hostile  Invasion  thereof.  You  are  therefore  fully  and  dili- 
gently to  discharge  the  Duty  of  Colonel  by  doing  and  performing  all  manner  of  Things 
thereunto  belonging.  And  we  do  strictly  charge  and  require  all  Officers  and  Soldiers  under 
your  Command,  to  be  obed'ent  to  your  Orders  as  Colonel. 

"  And  you  are  to  observe  and  follow  such  Orders  and  Directions  from  Time  to  Time, 
as  you  shall  receive  from  this  or  a  future  Congress  of  the  United  States,  or  Committee  of 
Congress,  for  that  Purpose  appointed,  or  Commander  in  Chief  for  the  Time  being  of  the 
Army  of  the  United  States,  or  any  other  superior  Officer,  according  to  the  Rules  and  Dis- 
cipline of  War,  in  Pursuance  of  the  Trust  reposed  in  you.  This  Commission  to  continue  in 
Force  until  revoked  by  this  or  a  future  Congress. 

"Dated  this day  of  December,  Anno  Domini   1776,   .     .     twenty  six 

"  By   Order  of  the   Congress, 

"John  Hancock,  President. 
"Attest.     Chas.  Thomson,  Sec'y.  " 

In  Aug.,  1776,  he  wrote  to  Aaron  Burr  from  Ticonderoga:  "I  shall  have  the  honor  to 
command  the  redoubt  which  I  am  now  building  with  the  regiment  alone.  It  is  situated  on 
the  right  of  the  whole,  by  the  waters  edge.  It  is  to  mount  two  iS  pounders,  two  12,  and  four 
9  pounders.     In  it  I  expect  to  do  honor  to  New  Jersey." 

"Salisbury  Memorial"  says:  "In  177S,  on  Lee's  retreat  at  Monmouth,  Col.  Ogden 
among  others,  commanding  a  regiment  in  Maxwell's  Brigade,  who  was  slowly  following 
his  retreating  corps,  with  indignation  so  finely  intimated  in  the  Latin  poet's  metaphor: 
'vircquc  leonnm  vinculo  rccusantum '  with  the  fierce  wrath  of  the  lion  disdaining  his  chains, 
when  interrogated  by  Colonel  Harrison  as  to  the  cause  of  the  retreat,  answered  with  great 
apparent  exasperation,  'By  G-d  sir,  they  are  flying  from  a  shadow.'  " 

Salisbury  also  says:  "Family  tradition  states  that  on  one  occasion  of  Col.  Matthias 
Ogden  being  taken  prisoner  by  the  British,  at  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.,  Nov.  5,  1780,  he  was 
removed  to  New  York,  and  on  arriving  at  headquarters  was  placed  on  parole,  and  invited 
to  join  the  officers'  mess.  Shortly  afterwards  a  new  detachment  arrived  from  England, 
and  one  of  its  officers  at  dinner  asked  the  company  to  charge  their  glasses,  and  proposed 
the  following  toast:  'Damnation  to  the  Rebels!'  Col.  Ogden  had  risen  with  the  rest,  and 
on  hearing  these  words,  flinging  his  glass  and  contents  in  the  face  of  the  British  officer, 
he  exclaimed:  'Damnation  to  him  who  dares  to  propose  such  a  toast  in  my  presence!' 
They  were  both  immediately  placed  under  arrest,  and  a  challenge  was  sent,  which  the  officer 
in  command  refused  to  allow  Col.  Ogden  to  accept.  The  mess  apologized  to  Col.  Ogden 
for  the  rudeness  of  their  brother  officer,  and  invited  him  to  resume  his  place  at  their  table. 
He  was  treated  with  the  utmost  courtesy  thereafter." 

Washington  set  out  from  Philadelphia  in  Mar.,  1782,  to  rejoin  the  army  at  Newburg 
on  the  Hudson.  Irving's  "  Life  of  Washington  "  states:  "He  was  at  Morristown  in  the 
Jerseys  on  the  28th,  when  a  bold  project  was  submitted  to  him  by  Colonel  Matthias  Ogden, 
of  the  Jersey  line.  It  was  no  less  than  the  capture  of  Prince  William  Henry,  son  of  the  King 
of  England,  and  afterward  King  William  IV.  The  prince  was  serving  as  midshipman  in 
the  fleet  of  Admiral  Digby,  and  was  at  that  time  with  the  admiral  in  New  York,  being 
an  object  of  great  attention  to  the  army  and  the  Tory  part  of  the  inhabitants.  "The  project 
of  Colonel  Ogden  was  to  surprise  the  prince  and  the  admiral  at  their  quarters  in  the  city 
and  bring  them  off  prisoners.  He  was  to  be  aided  by  a  captain,  a  subaltern,  three  sergeants, 
and  thirty-six  men.  They  were  to  embark  from  the  Jersey  shore  on  a  rainy  night  in  four 
whaleboats,  well  armed  and  rowed  with  muffled  oars,  and  were  to  land  in  New  York  at  half 
past  nine,  at  a  wharf  not  far  from  the  quarters  of  the  prince  and  admiral,  which  were  in 
Hanover  Square.  Part  of  the  men  were  to  guard  the  boats,  while  Colonel  Ogden  with  a 
strong  party  was  to  proceed  to  the  house,  force  the  doors  if  necessary,  and  capture  the 
prince  and  admiral.     In  returning  to  the  boats,  a  part  of  the  men  armed  with  guns  and  bay- 


'33 


C^e  €)ijDen  family 


onets  were  to  precede  the  prisoners,  and  part  to  follow  at  half  gunshot  distance,  to  give 
front  to  the  enemy  until  all  were  embarked. 

"The  plan  was  approved  by  Washington,  but  Colonel  Ogden  was  charged  to  be 
careful  that  no  insult  or  indignity  be  offered  to  the  prince  or  admiral,  should  they  be  captured. 
They  were,  on  the  contrary,  to  be  treated  with  all  possible  respect,  and  conveyed  without 
delay  to  Congress. 

"How  far  an  attempt  was  made  to  carry  this  plan  into  operation  is  not  known.  An 
exaggerated  alarm  seems  to  have  been  awakened  by  extravagant  reports  circulated  in  New 
York,  as  appears  by  the  following  citation  from  a  paper  or  letter  dated  April  23d,  and 
transmitted  by  Washington  to  Ogden. 

"  'Great  seems  to  be  their  apprehensions  here.  About  a  fortnight  ago  a  number  of 
flat-boats  were  discovered  by  a  sentinel  from  the  bank  of  the  river  (Hudson),  which  are 
said  to  have  been  intended  to  fire  the  suburbs,  and  in  the  height  of  the  conflagration  to  make 
a  descent  on  the  lower  part  of  the  city,  and  wrest  from  our  embraces  his  excellency  Sir  H. 
Clinton,  Prince  William  Henry,  and  several  other  illustrious  personages — since  which 
great  precautions  have  been  taken  for  the  security  of  those  gentlemen,  by  augmenting  the 
guards,  and  to  render  their  persons  as  little  exposed  as  possible.' 

"These  precautions  probably  disconcerted  the  project  of  Colonel  Ogden,  of  which 
we  find  no  other  traces." 

After  peace  had  been  declared,  Col.  Ogden  was  honored  by  Congress  with  a  commis- 
sion of  Brigadier  General.  That  body  granting  him  leave  of  absence  in  1783,  General 
Ogden  visited  Europe,  and  while  in  France  was  presented  to  Louis  XVI.  by  his  friend 
General  Lafayette.  The  French  monarch,  wishing  to  pay  him  a  compliment,  and  titles 
or  orders  being  out  of  the  question  with  a  republican  officer,  granted  him  the  distin- 
guished honor  of  "le  droit  du  tabouret."  He  died  at  the  early  age  of  thirty-six  years, 
and  was  buried  in  the  First  Pres.  churchyard,  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.  The  horizontal  slab 
over  his  tomb  is  thus  inscribed: 

"Sacred  to  the  memory  of 

General  Matthias  Ogden 

who  died  on  the  31st  day  of  March 

1791 

Aged  XXXVI  years 

In  him  were  united  those  various  virtues 

of  the  Soldier  the  Patriot  and  the  Friend 

which  endear  men  to  society. 

Distress  failed  not  to  find  relief  in  his 

bounty. 

Unfortunate  merit  a  refuge  in  his 

generosity. 

If  manly  sense  anS  dignity  of  mind 

If  social  virtues  lib'ral  and  refin'd 

Nipp'd  in  their  bloom  deserve  compassion's  tears 

Then  reader  Weep,  for  Ogden's  dust  lies  here 

Weed  his  grave  clean  ye  men  of  genius

Tread  lightly  on  his  ashes  ye  men  of  feeling 

for  he  was  your  brother"

Chetwood,  b.  1766;  d.  Sept.  27,  1826;  dau.  of  John  Chetwood  and  Mary 
Emott,  his  wife. 

Governor,  or  as  he  was  usually  called  Col.  Aaron  Ogden3is  was,  like  his  father  and 
brothers,  a  man  of  remarkable  characteristics.  Born  in  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.,  he  graduated 
at  Princeton  College  before  he  was  seventeen  years  old,  and  in  1775  became  tutor  in  Barber's 
Grammar  School,  where  Alexander  Hamilton,  Gov.  Wm  Livingston  and  Judge  Brockholtz 
were  pupils. 

In  the  outbreak  of  the  Revolution,  he  and  pupils  volunteered  in  the  Continental  army. 
Aaron  Ogden  rose  rapidly  from  lieutenant  and  captain  to  the  rank  of  Brigade  Major  and 
Inspector,  one  of  the  most  important  offices  in  the  army,  now  abolished,  and  served  through- 
out the  war.  He  gained  a  great  reputation  as  an  efficient  and  accomplished  officer.  In 
the  winter  of  1775-6  he  was  one  of  a  party  who  boarded  and  captured  a  vessel  called  "Blue 
Mountain  Valley"  lying  off  Sandy  Hook,  and  took  her  to  Elizabeth  Port.  He  was  in  the 
Battle  of  Brandy  wine  in  the  fall  of  1777;  was  assistant  aide-de-camp  to  Lord  Sterling  in 
the  Battle  of  Monmouth  in  the  summer  of  1778;  had  his  horse  shot  from  under  him  in  the 
Battle  of  Springfield,  N.J.,  in  1780. 

He  at  this  time  addressed  a  letter  to  his  father,  the  Hon.  Robert  Ogden,  which  is  still 
in  the  possession  of  one  of  his  descendants.     It  reads  as  follows: 

"Jersey  Camp  near  Springfield 
June   15th  1780. 
"  Honored  Sir, 

"Wishing  to  relieve  that  anxiety  in  you,  which  must  fill  every  breast  in  the  present 
posture  of  affairs,  I  set  down  to  give  you  as  much  satisfaction  as  is  in  my  power. 

"  On  the  night  of  the  6th  Inst,  the  enemy  landed  at  Elizth  Town,  it  is  supposed,  with 
about  5000  troops,  including  three  hundred  Dragoons  &  a  large  train  of  artillery — their 
advance  reached  Connecticut  farms  soon  after  Day  break,  where  they  were  opposed  by 
some  small  parties  of  the  Jersey  Brigade  &  a  few  militia — they  did  not  pass  the  defile  till 
after  they  had  received  reinforcements  from  Town — much  scirmishing  happened  during 
the  day,  in  which  almost  the  whole  of  Brigade  were  at  different  times  engaged  assisted  with 
a  considerable  body  of  militia,  who  on  this  occasion  merit  much  praise  &  have,  I  think, 
acquired  to  themselves  lasting  honor.  Our  loss  in  the  Brigade  is  not  very  considerable, 
one  Ensign  killed,  3  wounded,  7  privates  killed  &  20  wounded.  The  enemy  suffered  much, 
several  principal  officers  have  been  killed  &  wounded, — from  the  dead  found  after  the 
action  &  from  the  accounts  received  from  Inhabitants  where  their  wounded  were  dressed, 
their  loss  in  killed,  wounded  &  taken  prisoners  can  not  be  less  than  two  hundred — I  speak 
within  bounds  in  my  opinion — the  difference  between  our  loss  and  theirs  may  perhaps 
appear  incredible,  but  let  it  be  considered  that  they  were  harrassed  by  small  parties  on 
every  side  in  such  a  manner  that  it  was  out  of  their  power  to  make  retaliation.  That  they 
were  thoroughly  sick  of  their  situation  appears  evident  from  the  silence  &  precipitancy  of 

'3  5 


Ctye  €>gDen  family 


their  retreat,  which  they  performed  under  cover  of  the  night  &  a  heavy  shower  of  rain — 
it  was  not  known  in  our  camp  untill  the  next  morning. — Genl  Hand,  with  two  Battalions 
of  Continental  troops  &  a  body  of  militia,  fell  on  their  rear  a  little  below  where  Ebenezer 
Pine  lived — he  charged  them  with  vigour,  but  superior  force  soon  obliged  him  to  retire — 
his  loss  was  trifling. 

"Since  that  time  nothing  very  material  has  happened — the  advance  of  the  enemy  are 
as  far  up  as  the  Town  bridge  the  wooden  bridge  by  Potters — their  main  body  between  the 
forks  of  the  road  &  the  ferries. — Our  light  parties  do  them  very  little  injury  in  their  present 
position. — 

"To  develope  the  object  of  the  enemy  in  this  excursion  seems  almost  impossible — per- 
haps they  may  have  been  brought  to  believe  that  our  small  army  would  receive  but  little 
assistance  from  the  militia — They  may  possibly  suppose  that  our  magazines  of  provisions 
are  so  small  as  not  to  be  able  to  subsist  a  large  body  of  men  together  but  for  a  short  time — I 
hope  that  such  exertions  will  be  made,  as  may  disappoint  our  enemies  in  their  expectations, 
and  that  hereafter  our  Continental  regiments  may  be  put  into  such  a  situation  as  may  enable 
Genl  Washington  to  make  sufficient  opposition  without  the  aid  of  the  militia,  whose  absence 
from  their  farms  must  be  attended  with  bad  consequence  to  agriculture  on  which  our 
support  depends. — 

"Had  every  State  in  the  Union  compleated  their  Batallions,  which  might  have  easily 
been  done — this  distress  would  not  probably  have  come  upon  us. —  On  the  weakness  of  our 
array  our  enemies  build  their  hopes — they  say  that  those  few  can  not  long  hold  together, — 
and  that  they  must  be  more  than  men,  who  will  fight,  without  pa}',  clothes  or  food. — A  few 
vigorous  exertions  on  our  side  might  destroy  these  expectations,  &  make  them  wish  to  be 
at  peace  with  us — what  can  more  speedily  bring  our  foes  to  terms,  than  our  being  prepared 
for  war? — Oh!  that  every  one  would  exert  his  power  &  influence  to  give  vigour  to  our 
operations  this  campaign — &  peace  may  again  be  established.  I  wish  that  matters  of 
trifling  importance  might  be  dismissed  &  that  a  spirit  of  unanimity  might  prevail. 

"Doctor  Wolsely  arrived  at  Sussex  on  Sunday  last,  his  wife  &  Hannah  came  with  him, 
they  are  all  in  health.  The  Doctor  proposes  to  stay  about  a  week  from  this  time,  perhaps 
longer.     Colo.  Ogden  has  been  ill,  but  is  now  fast  recovering.

"Your  affectionate  Son 

(Addressed)  "Aar.  Ogden. 

"The  Honourable 

"  Robert  Ogden,  Esq. 

"  Trenton." 

At  the  siege  of  Yorktown  he  and  his  company  stormed  the  left  redoubt  of  the  British, 
for  which  he  received  the  approbation  of  Gen.  Washington.  Hearing  the  latter  say  he  wanted 
the  traitor  Benedict  Arnold  taken  alive,  Major  Aaron  Ogden  with  two  or  three  other 
desperate  spirits  attempted  his  capture.  All  were  killed  in  the  attempt  except  Major 
Ogden,  and  he  was  badly  wounded. 

In  Irving's  "  Life  of  Washington"  occurs  the  following:  "Capt.  Aaron  Ogden,  a  worthy 
officer  of  the  New  Jersey  line,  was  selected  by  Washington"  to  convey  a  letter  from  the 
captive  Major  Andre"  and  one  from  himself  to  Sir  Henry  Clinton  at  Paulus  Hook,  relative 
to  negotiations  concerning  Andre"  and  Arnold.  In  Andrews  dispatch  he  aims  to  assure  Sir 
Henry  of  the  latter's  innocence  in  connection  with  his  (Andrews)  misfortune.  Washington's 
dispatch  apprises  Clinton  that  Andre"  was  convicted  by  his  board  of  general  officers  for 
abusing  the  flag  of  truce,  and  that  he  was  properly  condemned  as  a  spy.  Capt.  Ogden  was 
requested  by  Washington  to  first  call  upon  Lafayette,  who  suggested  that  he  incidentally 
mention  an  exchange  of  Andre"  for  Arnold.  This  Ogden  did  to  the  commanding  officer 
at  Paulus  Hook,  who  conveyed  the  proposition  to  Clinton,  but  it  was  promptly  rejected 


136 


^>trtl>  eventration 


as  incompatible  with  honor  and  military  discipline.     All  negotiations  having  failed,  Major 
Andre  was  executed  on  the  gibbet  Oct.  2,  1780. 

After  the  war,  Col.  Ogden  returned  to  Elizabethtown,  studied  law  with  his  brother 
Robert3'°  in  1783,  and  was  licensed  as  an  attorney  a  year  later,  Sept.  1784,  notwithstanding 
the  rule  requiring  applicants  to  pursue  a  course  of  several  years'  study.  He  became  a  very 
successful  counsellor  in  Elizabethtown  and  had  several  cases  in  the  Supreme  Court  from 
the  April  term,  1790,  to  three  years  later.  In  1794  he  was  called  to  the  rank  of  sergcant- 
at-law.  In  1797,  during  the  short  war  with  France,  he  was  colonel  of  the  15th  Reg't,  and 
was  afterward  known  as  Col.  Ogden. 

He  possessed  some  of  the  very  best  characteristics  of  a  good  lawyer  and  would 
undoubtedly  have  risen  to  a  higher  rank  than  he  actually  did,  but  being  an  ardent  Federalist, 
he  was  led  into  the  political  arena.  In  Feb.,  1S01,  he  was  elected  U.  S.  Senator  to  fill  the 
unexpired  term  of  Senator  Schureman,  and  served  two  years.  He  was  for  several  years 
Clerk  of  Essex  Co.  In  1S03  he  was  elected  a  trustee  of  Princeton  College,  which  institution 
conferred  the  degree  of  LL.D.  upon  him  in  1816. 

In  1 81 2  he  was  elected  by  the  Legislature  to  the  office  of  Governor,  and  served  one 
year.  During  his  term  he  was  appointed  Major  General  in  the  U.  S.  army  by  President 
Madison,  but  the  Senate  declined  to  confirm  the  appointment.  Later  he  organized  a  body 
of  volunteers  for  the  defense  of  New  York.  About  this  time  he  retired  from  the  law  and 
engaged  in  steamboat  navigation,  by  which  he  lost  his  fortune.  "The  Judicial  and  Civil 
History  of  New  Jersey  "  gives  this  account:  "The  Legislature  of  N.  Y.  had  granted  the  exclu- 
sive right  to  Livingston  and  Fulton  to  navigate  the  waters  of  that  state  with  steam  vessels, 
for  a  term  of  years.  Col.  Ogden  in  connection  with  Daniel  Dodd,  started  a  line  of  steam- 
boats between  Elizabethtown  and  New  York.  In  retaliation,  the  Legislature  of  New  Jersey 
passed  a  statute  granting  exclusive  privileges  to  Ogden  and  Dodd.  An  attempt  was  made 
to  repeal  the  New  Jersey  statute  and  the  parties  appeared  with  their  counsel  before  a  com- 
mittee and  were  heard.  Livingston  was  represented  by  Thomas  Addis  Emmet,  and  Ogden 
and  Dodd,  by  Samuel  L.  Southard  and  Joseph  Hopkinson.  The  result  was  that  the  New 
Jersey  law  was  repealed.  Violent  disputes  originated  in  the  courts  and  both  Legislatures 
were  appealed  to.  During  these  controversies  Thomas  Gibbons  appeared  on  the  stage, 
in  opposition  to  Ogden  and  Dodd.  He  was  a  lawyer  of  consummate  ability,  a  man  of  large 
research,  of  untiring  energy,  of  an  iron  will  and  capable  of  employing  means  to  attain  an 
end  which  some  honest  men  thought  questionable.  Suit  after  suit  was  brought. 
Col.  Ogden  was  dogged  and  persevering  in  his  attempts  to  secure  his  rights.  No  aspersion 
could  be  justly  made  against  his  character;  that  remained  untarnished;  but,  in  the  end, 
he  was  defeated,  after  a  most  harassing  conflict.  He  lost  his  fortune,  his  wife  died,  and  he 
never  recovered  the  position  which  he  formerly  occupied." 

In  1829  he  moved  to  Jersey  City.  He  was  that  year  arrested  for  debt  in  New  York, 
and  "refusing  the  proffered  aid  of  his  friends,  remained  in  confinement  for  several  months, 
being  finally  released  by  an  act  of  the  Legislature  providing  that  no  Revolutionary  officer 
or  soldier  should  be  imprisoned  for  debt.  The  law  was  so  framed  as  to  cover  the  case  of 
Col.  Ogden,  and  he  was  released.  He  died  in  1839.  His  last  days  were  solaced  by  his  ap- 
pointment to  the  office  of  Collector  of  Customs  of  Jersey  City,  created  especially  for  him 
by  act  of  Congress. 

He  was  a  founder  of  the  Society  of  the  Cincinnati, — became  president  of  the  State 
Society  in  1824,  and  vice-president  of  the  General  Society  in  1825.  He  was  made  presi- 
dent in  1829,  and  served  until  his  death.

"Hardyston  Memorial"  says  of  him:  "He  was  scarcely  more  than  a 
lad  when  he  received  a  midshipman's  warrant  in  the  Navy,  in  which  he 
continued  till  his  death,  having  risen  to  the  rank  of  Capt.  He  cruised  in 
every  quarter  of  the  globe  and  was  sent  on  many  important  expeditions. 
He  served  in  the  'Essex,'  commanded  by  Capt.  David  Porter,  when  she 
captured  the  British  warship  'Alert,'  the  first  American  success  of  the  war 
and  whose  flag  was  the  first  taken  from  the  enemy. 

"  He  was  with  the  Essex  when  vessel  and  crew  were  captured  off  Val- 
paraiso and  while  on  the  way  north  as  prisoner  of  war  was  one  of  those  who 
with  Capt.  Porter  escaped  in  the  long  boat  and  finally  landed  on  Long  Island 
shore.  In  mature  years  he  was  Naval  Commander  in  New  York  Harbor, 
and  on  his  'receiving  ship,'  the  North  Carolina,  received  the  visits  of  many 
noted  persons,  both  Americans  and  foreigners. 

"He  was  generous  and  impulsive,  and  once  dove  into  the  sea  to  save 
a  seaman  who  had  accidentally  fallen  overboard.  He  never  married,  and 
died  in  New  York  City." 

In  his  will  made  Aug.  20,  1855,  and  proved  Nov.  17,  i860,  he  left  to  his 
brother  Thomas  Anderson  Ogdenou  a  farm  in  Sussex  Co.,  one  in  Bergen  Co.. 
one  near  Dover,  Morris  Co.,  and  another  in  Sparta,  Sussex  Co.  He  also  gave

He  graduated  at  Princeton  College  in  1821.  "From  1839  to  1865,  he 
was  identified  with  the  Carmel  church,  Mississippi,  as  Chaplain  to  the  slaves 
on  several  plantations  within  its  bounds;  was  a  native  of  Sussex  Co.,  N.J. 
He  studied  theology  at  Princeton  and  Andover;  was  ordained  by  the  Pres- 
bytery of  Abingdon,  Va.,  in  1829,  and  served  several  churches  in  Virginia 
as  supply  till  1835,  when  he  became  an  agent  of  the  Presbyterian  Board  of 
Education.  In  this  capacity  he  visited  Mississippi,  where,  soon  after,  he 
accepted  the  invitation  extended  to  him  by  prominent  planters  in  the  Second 
Creek  neighborhood  to  undertake  the  religious  instruction  of  the  negroes.  In 
this  work,  which  he  loved,  he  spent  the  remainder  of  his  active  life.  In  1865, 
broken  down  in  health,  depressed  by  the  desertion  of  the  colored  people 
among  whom  he  had  so  long  labored,  he  returned  to  the  North,  and  closed 
his  life  among  his  surviving  relations  in  New  Jersey.  He  was  a  scholar,  a 
catechist  and  expositor  of  a  high  order;  an  oracle  in  ecclesiastical  law;  a 
valuable  counsellor  in  Church  courts;  a  genial  companion  and  an  affectionate

"Eli  Whitney,  the  celebrated  inventor,  was  b.  at  Westborough,  Mass., 
and  graduated  at  Yale  College  in  1792.  While  pursuing  the  study  of  law, 
in  Georgia,  he  resided  with  the  widow  of  General  Greene,  and  it  was  at  this 
time  that  he  invented  the  cotton  gin,  a  machine  for  separating  the  seed  from 
the  cotton.  This  invention  has  been  of  incalculable  advantage  to  the  south- 
ern planters:  what  before  was  performed  at  an  immense  sacrifice  of  time 
and  labor,  is  now  effected  almost  instantaneously.  The  favorable  condition 
of  internal  trade  in  the  southern  section  of  the  states,  has  in  many  respects 
been  more  promoted  by  the  genius  of  Whitney,  than  by  the  labors  of  Fulton.

But  he  was  not  allowed  to  enjoy  his  own  in  peace:  he  suffered  much  in 
defending  his  rights  from  the  encroachments  of  the  envious  or  designing.  In 
1798  he  contracted  with  the  United  States  to  furnish,  for  $134,000,  ten 
thousand  stand  of  arms,  which  he  completed  in  ten  years.  He  next  con- 
tracted for  fifteen  thousand  stand  of  arms. 

"He  died  Jan.  8,  1825,  aged  59.  .  .  He  was  a  man  of  unflinching

"The  Old  Merchants  of  New  York  City"  chronicles  the  following  data:  "There  are 
many  honored  mercantile  names  among  the  citizens  of  different  periods,  but  none  stand 
higher  than  that  of  'Ogden.'  Of  these  Samuel  Gouverneur  Ogden  stood  among  those  in 
the  front  rank.  He  was  one  of  the  New  Jersey  Ogdens,  whose  father  was  a  clergyman,  of 
Newark. 

"He  served  the  usual  apprenticeship,  or  clerkship,  in  order  to  thoroughly  understand 
the  mercantile  business,  with  the  then  (1795)  great  commercial  firm  of  Gouverneur  & 
Kemble,  No.  94  Front  street.  Five  years  later,  in  1800,  Samuel  G.  Ogden  went  into  business 
on  his  own  account  at  1 1 9  Pearl  street.  For  some  years  he  did  an  extensive  shipping  business, 
and  owned  several  vessels,  viz.  the  '  Empire, '  the  '  Indostan, '  the  ' Diana, '  and  the  ' Leander.' 

"About  this  time  he  married  Miss  Lewis,  a  daughter  of  Francis  Lewis,  and  grand- 
•  daughter  of  the  celebrated  Francis  Lewis,  the  worthy  old  merchant  who  signed  the  Declara- 
tion of  Independence." 

Mr.  Ogden's  vessels  were  armed  with  15  guns  each,  as  was  the  custom  for  protection 
from  pirates.  When  his  oldest  son  Samuel  was  born,  the  event  was  heralded  by  a  salute  of 
60  guns  from  his  merchant  ships. 

In  1806,  General  Miranda,  a  native  of  Caracas,  S.  A.,  having  been  many  years  in  the 
service  of  Spain,  conceived  the  idea  of  freeing  his  native  country  from  the  Spanish  yoke, 
and  after  visiting  Europe,  came  to  the  United  States  to  enlist  the  sympathies  of  this  govern- 
ment. He  proceeded  to  Washington,  but  not  gaining  more  than  the  sympathy  of  Pres. 
Jefferson  and  Mr.  Madison,  Sec'y  of  State,  Gen.  Miranda  went  to  New  York  and  succeeded 
in  securing  the  help  of  Samuel  Gouverneur  Ogden,  and  his  friend  and  associate.  Col.

W.  G.  Smith,  son-in-law  of  the  elder  John  Adams.  Mr.  Ogden  immediately  fitted  up  the 
"Leander"  with  18  guns  and  all  other  necessary  military  equipments  at  his  own  expense, 
and  dispatched  her  in  company  with  the  "Bee"  and  "Bacchus,"  with  an  entire  force  of 
about  200  men.  It  is  said  that  Col.  Smith  confided  the  secrecies  of  the  expedition  to  Aaron 
Burr,  who  at  once  informed  the  Spanish  minister  at  Washington.  Fast  sailing  vessels  were 
at  once  dispatched  to  Caracas,  and  the  Spanish  government  readily  ended  the  expedition 
in  complete  failure.  Some  of  the  men  were  imprisoned,  others  hung,  and  Gen.  Miranda  was 
himself  captured  and  died  in  prison  at  Cadiz.  Mr.  Ogden  suffered  a  financial  loss  of  about 
$200,000,  but  rejoiced  that  he  had  struck  the  first  blow  for  the  freedom  of  South  America. 
Bolivar,  "the  Deliverer,"  acknowledged  this,  and  expressed  a  readiness  to  compensate  Mr. 
Ogden  for  his  heavy  losses.  Messrs.  Ogden  and  Smith  were  both  prosecuted  by  the  Govern- 
ment for  having  fitted  out  an  expedition  against  a  power  in  amity  with  the  United  States. 
The  trial  in  New  York  City  was  a  highly  interesting  one.  Thomas  Addis  Emmet,  Cadwal- 
lader  D.  Colden,  Joseph  Ogden  Hoffman,  and  Richard  Harrison,  were  their  counsel.  The 
defendants  were  honorably  acquitted. 

Mr.  Ogden  continued  in  business  in  New  York  with  unimpaired  credit.  He  lived  at 
No.  9  Hudson  street  until  1S15,  when  he  went  to  France  and  established  himself  in  com- 
mercial business  at  Bordeaux,  doing  a  large  business,  and  forming  many  valuable  commercial 
connections.  In  1825  he  returned  to  New  York,  and  became  agent  for  several  large  business 
houses  in  France.  His  residence  was  at  41  Warren  street,  where  he  entertained  in  magnifi- 
cent style.  He  died  at  his  country  home  in  Astoria,  L.  I.,  surrounded  by  his  gentle  wife, 
his  children  and  grandchildren,  in  his  83d  year. 

Julia  Fairlie,  2d  wife  of  Samuel  Gouverneur  Ogden4o6,  was  dau.  of  Major  Fairlie, 
and  gr.  dau.  of  Chief  Justice  Robert  Yates.  The  latter  was  born  in  Schenectady,  N.  Y., 
Jan.  27,  1738.  He  received  a  classical  education  in  New  York  City,  and  studied  law  with 
Wm.  Livingston,  Esq.  He  settled  in  Albany  and  was  known  as  "the  honest  lawyer."  He 
issued  several  essays  on  the  rights  and  liberties  of  his  country.  He  was  a  member  of  the 
Provincial  Congress,  and  chairman  of  committee  on  military  organization.  In  1777  he 
framed  the  first  Constitution  of  New  York  state,  and  was  that  year  made  Judge  of  Supreme 
Court.  He  held  intimate  relations  with  John  Jay,  Benj.  Franklin,  Chancellor  Livingston, 
Gen.   Philip  Schuyler  and  Alexander  Hamilton. 

After  the  Revolutionary  war  Judge  Yates  was  chosen  with  Gen.  Hamilton  and  Chan- 
cellor Lansing  to  represent  his  state  in  the  convention  that  framed  the  Constitution  of  the 
United  States,  and  was  a  member  of  the  state  convention  that  ratified  it.  In  1790  he  was 
appointed  Chief  Justice  of  New  York.  He  twice  ran  for  Governor,  the  second  time  receiv- 
ing a  majority  of  votes,  but  was  not  seated  because  of  inaccurate  returns.  He  retired  from 
the  bench  in  1798  by  constitutional  limit,  having  been  its  ornament  and  pride  for  21  years. 
The  legislature  then  appointed  him  commissioner  to  settle  disputed  land  titles,  which  office 
he  held  till  near  his  death,  which  occurred  Sept.  9,  1801,  finishing  his  remarkable  career 
"full  of  years  and  full  of  honors." 

Major  James  Fairlie,  father  of  Julia  {Fairlie)  Ogde* ,  was  a  distinguished  soldier 
of  the  Revolutionary  war.  He  entered  the  army  in  1776  when  only  19  years  old,  and  from 
1778  was  aide  to  Baron  Steuben  till  the  close  of  the  war.  Full  of  courage,  but  tender-hearted, 
he  said  his  most  painful  duty  was  to  obey  Gen.  Washington's  order  to  be  present  at  the 
execution  of  the  unfortunate  Major  Andrei  Count  Pulaski, 'in  writing  to  Benj.  Franklin, 
said:  "Speaking  of  the  officers,  there  are  some  elegant  young  men  among  them, — Major 
Fairlie  I  would  mention  as  one.  He  is  quite  young,  only  twenty-one,  but  for  sagacity, 
wit,  and  knowledge  of  his  profession,  he  has  no  superior:  playful  and  satirical,  or  instructive, 
as  he  varies  from  one  subject  to  another.  I  have  taken  much  delight  in  his  society,  and  think 
he  has  given  me  more  instruction  in  pronouncing  the  English  language  than  any  other 
officer  I  have  met  with."

Major  Fairlie  distinguished  himself  in  the  battle  of  Monmouth,  and  remained  with 
the  army  to  the  close  of  the  war.  He  lived  several  years  with  Baron  Steuben  at  his  head- 
quarters at  Fishkill,  and  afterward  at  his  log  palace  (which  he  facetiously  called  "The 
Louvre")  in  Steuben  Co.,  N.Y.  He  assisted  in  founding  the  Cincinnati  Society  and,  in  1784, 
was  its  second  Secretary.  He  married  Maria  Yates,  dau.  of  Chief  Justice  Robert  Yates  of 
Albany.  He  was  twice  member  of  the  Assembly,  Presidential  Elector,  Alderman,  and  dele- 
gate to  frame  the  new  Constitution  of  New  York  in  1 8  2 1 .  President  Madison  offered  him  the 
position  of  Adjutant  General  during  the  War  of  1812,  which  he  declined.  Major  Fairlie 
died  at  his  home,  41  Cortlandt  street,  New  York  City,  aged  73  years,  and  was  buried  with 
military  honors,  attended  by  the  Cincinnati  and  the  civic  societies.

Anna  Cora  {Ogden,  Mowatt)  Ritchie  was  married  before  16  years  of 
age  to  James  Mowatt,  a  cultured  young  lawyer  of  New  York  City,  who 
took  up  residence  in  a  fine  old  Revolutionary  house  at  Flatbush,  L.  I., 
called  "Melrose."  After  7  years  of  ideal  happiness,  Mr.  Mowatt's  eye- 
sight began  to  fail,  and  he  met  with  serious  pecuniary  losses.  His  wife 
having  given  early  evidence  of  strong  literary  and  dramatic  talent,  her 
devoted  and  heroic  spirit  prompted  her  to  go  on  the  stage  for  their  mutual 
benefit.  In  1841  she  gave  public  readings,  and  her  signal  success  led  to 
preparation  for  dramatic  effort.  Her  family  strenuously  objected  to  this, 
but  her  blameless  life  finally  conquered  their  prejudices.  She  made  her 
de~but  at  the  Park  Theatre  as  "Pauline"  in  "The  Lady  of  Lyons."  Her 
dramatic  life  developed  her  character  and  added  new  graces,  and  she  gained 
laurels  both  at  home  and  abroad.  She  wrote  the  play  called  "Fashion," 
which  was  performed  with  great  success  at  the  Park  Theatre.  Mr.  Laurence 
Hutton  gives  Mrs.  Mowatt  the  honor  of  having  written  the  first  American 
play.  Mr.  Mowatt  died  in  London  in  1849,  an(i  m  obedience  to  his  dying 
request,  she  wrote  the  "Autobiography  of  an  Actress,"  in  which  her  life 
story  is  charmingly  told. 

In  1854,  having  spent  eight  years  on  the  stage,  she  retired,  and  mar- 
ried Mr.  William  Fouche  Ritchie,  editor  of  the  Richmond  Inquirer. 
They  made  their  home  in  a  little  vine-covered  cottage  in  Richmond,  Va.,

where  Mrs.  Mowatt-Ritchie  was  surrounded  by  a  large  circle  of  cultured 
friends.  She  became  Vice  President  and  an  active  helper  in  the  Mt.  Vernon 
Association.  In  i860  Mrs.  Ritchie  accompanied  an  invalid  sister  to  Paris, 
where  her  husband  joined  her  a  few  months  later.  The  Civil  War  caused 
Mr.  Ritchie  to  return  to  Virginia  in  the  interests  of  his  business,  but  Mrs. 
Ritchie's  impaired  health  forbade  an  ocean  voyage.  Despite  ill  health,  she 
again  took  up  her  pen  and  contributed  to  the  papers  and  magazines.  She 
wrote  three  plays:  "Fashion,"  "Armand,"  and  "Gulzara."  Among  her 
stories  were  "Mimic  Life,"  "Twin  Roses,"  "Fairy-Fingers,"  "The  Mute 
Singer, "  and  "The  Clergyman's  Wife."  She  also  wrote  numerous  essays  and 
short  poems.  Surrounded  by  loving  friends  in  her  little  villa  at  Twickenham, 
near  London,  she  died  in  1870,  and  was  buried  at  Kensal  Green  beside  the 
husband  of  her  youth,  Mr.  Mowatt.

Glen  Rainey  and  Sophia  Hendrick,  his  wife. 

Grace  Priscilla  Ogden ""s*  belongs  to  the  Colonial  Dames,  Daughters 
American  Revolution,  Daughters  of  Cincinnati,  and  has  read  several  bio- 
graphical papers  of  merit  before  these  societies. 

Dr.  Thomas  Rainey  is  of  Scotch-English  ancestry.  He  was  the  oldest 
of  1  5  children  by  James  Glen  Rainey  and  Sophia  Hendricks,  of  Yancey- 
ville, N.  C.  He  received  his  education  in  the  Academy  in  Yanceyville, 
after  which  he  went  to  Missouri  and  for  a  time  engaged  in  school  teaching. 
He  became  interested  in  scientific  subjects,  and  gave  his  time  for  some 
years  to  lecturing  along  these  lines  in  the  Western  States. 

In  1847  he  published  "  Rainey's  Improved  Abacus,"  a  treatise  on 
arithmetic  and  geometry,  by  cancellation,  which  had  an  extensive  sale.  He 
also  established  the  Ohio  Teacher  and  later  the  Western  Review.  He 
took  part  in  the  "Association  for  the  Advancement  of  Education"  held 
at  Northampton,  Mass.,  in  1850,  also  in  the  "American  Association  for  the 
Advancement  of  Science,"  held  at  New  Haven  the  same  year,  and  was  its 
local  Secretary. 

Entering  politics,  Dr.  Rainey  was  a  moving  spirit  in  the  Whig  con- 
vention at  Baltimore,  that  nominated  General  Scott  for  the  presidency. 
He  established  the  Cincinnati  Daily  Republican  which  became  the  first 
advocate  for  the  organization  of  the  Republican  party.  In  1853  his  scientific 
friends  urged  him  to  go  to  South  America,  and  had  the  U.  S.  Government 
appoint  him  Consul  to  Bolivia ;  his  nomination  was  confirmed  by  the  Senate, 
but  he  resigned.  His  friend,  Hon.  Jas.  C.  Dobbin,  Sec'y  of  the  Navy,  urged 
him  to  drop  literature,  politics,  and  science,  and  go  into  steam  in  Brazil. 
In  June,  1854,  he  set  sail  for  the  Amazon,  where  he  spent  much  time  in

exploring  the  Para  Valley.  In  1855  he  went  to  Rio  de  Janeiro,  intending 
to  make  Brazil  his  future  home,  and  this  the  Doctor  always  considered 
the  great  mistake  of  his  life,  "wasting"  (as  he  termed  it)  "twenty 
years."  He  built  and  operated  a  fleet  of  steamers  on  the  bay  of  Rio 
de  Janeiro,  which  he  controlled  for  some  14  years.  Circumstances 
beyond  his  control,  however,  brought  him  financial  loss  and  great  disap- 
pointment, where  success  had  seemed  certain. 

In  1856,  Pres.  Buchanan  appointed  Dr.  Rainey  to  the  mission  of 
Brazil,  which  he  accepted,  but  complications  arose,  and  he  was  given  the 
mission  to  Portugal  instead,  which  he  declined.  But  while  in  Europe  he 
was  again  appointed  to  Brazil,  the  Senate  confirmed  the  appointment,  and 
Pres.  Buchanan  urged  him  to  accept  it,  but  he  resigned. 

The  great  financial  crisis  of  1857,  together  with  the  war  clouds  which 
began  to  dim  the  horizon,  made  investors  wary,  and  brought  business  of 
all  kinds  to  a  stand.  In  the  end  Dr.  Rainey,  like  many  others,  became 
the  victim  of  other  men  less  scrupulous. 

Early  in  1874  he  returned  to  New  York,  and  in  June  of  that  year  mar- 
ried Miss  Grace  Priscilla  Ogden"56.  Soon  after  his  marriage  he  undertook 
what  proved  to  be  his  most  unsuccessful  venture, — that  of  building  a  bridge 
across  the  East  River  at  Randall's  Island.  He  spent  many  years  and 
many  thousands  of  dollars  in  the  attempt  to  get  the  necessary  legislation 
accomplished.  The  enterprise  had  warm  friends,  but  it  also  had  powerful 
opponents,  and  in  the  end  the  latter  prevailed. 

Dr.  Rainey,  with  his  kindly  disposition  and  genial  manner,  and  his 
accomplished  wife,  now  live  a  retired  life  in  New  York  City.

Canfield,  b.  July  17,  1763;  d.  May  1,  1822;  son  of  Abraham  Canfield  and

Margaret  P.  (Caldurll)  Canfield4*4,  oldest  child  of  Rev.  James  and  Hannah  (Ogden) 
Caldwell,  was  about  16  years  old  when  her  mother  was  brutally  killed  by  a  British  soldier 
at  Connecticut  Farms,  a  hamlet  near  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.  She  was  educated  at  Miss 
Hedden's  select  school  in  Newark.  She  was  a  woman  of  devout  piety,  "a  mother  in  Israel," 
and  deeply  loved  and  respected  by  all  who  knew  her.      (See  portrait,  p.  98.) 

Isaac  Canfield,  her  husband,  was  of  Morristown,  N.  J.,  and  had  been  an  active  par- 
ticipant in  the  struggle  for  freedom,  which  ended  but  a  short  time  before  their  marriage. 
He  was  a  farmer  and  also  kept  a  country  store  at  the  junction  of  the  roads  leading  to  Mor- 
ristown, Dover,  Whippany  and  Parsippany,  and  since  called  Malapardis.  He  later  was  a 
merchant  in  Morristown,  and  was  appointed  Major  of  the  Morris  Squadron,  holding  the 
commission  from  Dec.  2,  1807,  to  Feb.  3,  1812.  He  is  said  to  have  introduced  the  Virginia 
crab-apple  into  Morris  county.  Both  he  and  wife  are  buried  at  Morristown,  N.  J.  All 
their  children  were  born  at  Morris  Plains,  except  the  youngest,  who  was  born  at  Morristown.

of  fruit  from  New  Jersey,  particularly  strawberries.  He  was  largely  instru- 
mental in  the  introduction  of  the  Early  Rose  potato,  paying  $48.00  per 
barrel  for  the  seed,  though  he  sold  the  increase  at  the  market  price  of  ordi-

settlement  on  the  Miss,  river,  and  the  first  capital  of  111.  They  soon,  however, 
removed  to  Jacksonville,  where  General  Duncan  continued  to  represent 
his  state  in  Congress  until  1834,  when  he  was  chosen  Governor.  He  held 
the  office  four  years,  discharging  its  duties  with  fidelity  to  the  state  and

After  his  father's  death,  John  Edwards  Caldwell4*7  was  by  his  guardian,  Elias 
Boudinot,  placed  under  the  care  of  Rev.  Dr.  McWhorter  of  Newark,  N.J.  The  Marquis  de 
Lafayette,  out  of  his  great  regard  for  the  father,  solicited  and  obtained  permission  to  adopt 
and  educate  him,  and  upon  his  return  to  France  in  1782  took  his  young  charge  with  him 
as  one  of  the  family.  He  returned  to  America  in  1791,  and  settled  in  Philadelphia  where 
his  guardian  Mr.  Boudinot  was  living.  Here  in  1801  he  married  his  first  wife,  Louise,  who 
died  within  a  year,  leaving  an  infant  daughter.  On  June  25,  1 801,  he  was  appointed  con- 
sular agent  of  the  U.  S.  for  the  city  of  San  Domingo,  and  other  parts  of  the  West  Indies. 
He  afterward  removed  to  New  York  City,  and  in  1809  renounced  Popery,  which  he  had 
embraced  in  France,  and  became  a  member  of  the  Cedar  street  Presbyterian  Church  of  New 
York,  being  made  an  Elder  in  1811.  His  name  was  connected  with  almost  every  good  object 
of  the  day.  He  was  one  of  the  most  active  and  influential  founders  of  the  American  Bible 
Society,  and  until  his  death  its  General  Agent.  In  1816  he  gave  to  this  society  $10,000. 
In  Mar.  181 6  he  founded  the  Christian  Herald,  the  first  five  volumes  of  which  he  edited

from  Princeton  in  1788,  at  the  age  of  16.  He  taught  school  for  several  years  in  Charleston, 
S.  C.  and  then  decided  to  study  for  the  ministry.  Soon  after  receiving  license  to  preach,  he 
received  a  call  from  the  Presbyterian  Church  at  Basking  Ridge,  N.  J.,  and  this  was  his  only 
charge.  In  1817  he  received  a  call  to  the  presidency  of  Athens  College,  Georgia.  He 
accepted  the  call,  though  at  great  cost  in  comfort  and  convenience  to  himself  and  family ;  a 
two  weeks'  voyage  from  New  York  to  Savannah,  and  then  a  200-mile  drive  over  rough  roads,

made  a  new  home.  The  climate,  together  with  the  arduous  labors  in  bringing  the  affairs 
of  the  college  from  a  low  ebb  to  a  prosperous  condition,  proved  too  much  for  him,  and  his 
illness  resulted  in  his  death  near  the  close  of  the  year,  dying  Nov.  3,  1817. 

After  his  death,  the  trustees  volunteered  to  educate  his  eldest  son  James,  free  of  charge. 
They  also  gave  Mrs.  Finley  two  valuable  tracts  of  land  in  Athens.    She  died  in  Lebanon,  111., 
in  Sept.,  1844,  at  the  home  of  one  of  her  children.    (Sec  portrait,  p.  98.)

at  Hingham,  Mass.,  the  old  home  of  the  General.  For  some  reason,  not  now  plain,  he  was 
afterward  bound  as  an  apprentice  to  a  hatter  in  Boston.  The  hatter's  trade  not  proving 
to  his  liking,  he  ran  away  and  for  many  years  followed  the  sea.  During  the  wars  of  Emperor

Reuben  Van  Pelt  was  an  Elder  in  the  First  Presbyterian  Church,  of 
Elizabethtown,  N.J. 

They  had  7  children.

Upon  the  death  of  her  parents,  Maria  Caldwell433  was  adopted  by  Mrs.  Garret  Noel 
of  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.,  a  steadfast  friend  of  the  Caldwell  family.  Her  married  life  was 
mostly  spent  in  New  York  City,  where  her  husband  was  a  merchant,  senior  member  of  the 
firm  of  "Robertson  &  Kelso."  Mr.  Robertson  failed  in  business  in  1823,  and  secured 
employment  in  the  New  York  Custom  House,  a  position  he  held  for  many  years.  They 
attended  the  Scotch  Presbyterian  Church,  where  Mr.  Robertson's  father  was  a  Deacon, 
but  it  is  believed  they  were  member^of  old  Cedar  Street  Church. 

Mrs.  Noel's  only  daughter  Eleanor  married  Rev.  Walter  Monteith,  and  being  early 
made  a  widow,  and  her  mother  being  dead,  she  came  to  live  with  Mrs.  Robertson433,  in  whose 
home  she  was  a  welcome  and  beloved  member  of  the  family  till  her  death  in  1831,  thus 
repaying  the  noble  debt  of  gratitude.      (See  portrait,  p.  98.)

"Capt.  David  Ogden447  came  to  Genoa  [Cayuga  Co.,  N.  Y.]  from  Nanticoke,  near 
Binghamton,  in  1797.  His  wife  came  on  horseback,  carrying  an  infant  in  her  arms.  For 
nearly  40  years  he  was  the  'middleman'  of  this  section,  dealing  largely  in  grain,  stock,  pork 
and  beef.  For  many  years  he  was  largely  engaged  in  merchandise.  After  the  completion 
of  the  Erie  Canal  (an  enterprise  which  he  promoted  with  money  and  influence)  he  was 
actively  interested  in  boating;  he  was  also  the  owner  of  300  acres  of  land  and  was  conse- 
quently a  large  farmer.  In  addition  to  this  he  at  one  time  kept  a  public  house,  and  was 
postmaster  for  many  years.  Many  branches  of  his  business  were  conducted  under  unfavor- 
able circumstances;  the  country  was  new;  the  channels  of  trade  were  unformed, — the 
principal  markets  (Quebec,  New  York  and  Baltimore)  were  not  only  distant,  but  difficult 
of  access.  Railroads  were  unknown,  the  Erie  Canal  was  not  completed  until  1825,  and 
postal  communication  was  slow  and  uncertain.  Travel  required  much  time  and  was  often 
attended  with  danger.  Under  these  circumstances  business  like  his,  so  extensive  and  varied, 
demanded  great  executive  ability  and  indomitable  energy;  qualities  which  he  possessed 
in  a  remarkable  degree.  The  town  of  Genoa  owes  much  to  the  active  life  and  public  spirit 
of  Capt.  David  Ogden."

Mary  (Ogden)  Kellogg'*77  was  deeply  interested  in  her  family  history, 
and  took  unflagging  interest  in  tracing  her  ancestry  back  to  Good  Old  John 
Ogden  of  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.  She  labored  under  the  disadvantage  of  poor 
eyesight,  and  finally  became  blind.  However,  she  continued  her  correspond- 
ence and  searches  and  dictated  many  letters,  keeping  up  the  work  to  the  end 
of  her  life.  Her  last  letters  were  written  in  the  effort  to  know  definitely  the 
link  back  of  her  grandfather  No.  147,  Joseph  Ogden.  She  had  been  misled 
by  the  first  Ogden  chart,  prepared  by  Francis  Barber  Ogden,  some  years  ago, 
who  had  her  grandfather  grouped  with  the  children  of  No.  87,  David  Ogden 
and  Hannah  Woodruff.  This  was  found  to  be  incorrect,  and  other  children 
assigned  to  David  having  been  proved  to  belong  to  No.  46,  John  Ogden  and 
Hannah  Sayer,  Joseph  was  naturally  placed  with  them.  He  without  doubt 
belongs  to  the  Ogdens  of  Elizabethtown,  and  the  evidence  at  hand  makes 
him  the  youngest  child  of  No.  46,  Judge  John  Ogden. 

Mary  (Ogden)  Kellogg"*77  was  an  estimable  Christian  woman.  Amid 
her  great  afflictions  and  deprivations,  her  sufferings  and  loss  of  sight  but 
developed  her  womanly  virtues,  and  she  patiently  and  faithfully  pursued 
her  duties  to  the  end,  having  been  an  inspiration  and  benediction  to  all  who 
knew  her.

brother  Seth  was  very  conscientious,  never  pursuing  the  wrong  when  he  knew  the  right. 
Upon  reading  Rev.  George  B.  Cheever's  tract  entitled  'The  Deacon's  Distillery'  he  at  once 
turned  his  distillery  into  a  sheep  pen.   He  is  said  to  have  been  the  first  settler  of  Stow,  O. "

Ogden  was  both  gifted  as  a  preacher  and  devoted  to  his  parish  work.  His 
remarkable  social  nature  and  vivacious  conversational  powers  won  him 
many  friends,  and  his  generous  disposition  and  untiring  acts  of  kindness  for

was  educated  by  the  Rev.  Mr.  Doty  of  Three  Rivers,  and  Mr.  Shakel  of  Montreal,  where 
he  studied  law.  In  1812  he  was  called  to  the  bar  and  began  his  practice  at  Three  Rivers. 
Subsequently  he  returned  to  Montreal  and  formed  a  partnership  with  Mr.  Buchanan  of  that 
city.  The  firm  became  eminent  and  enjoyed  a  large  and  lucrative  practice.  In  1815,  he 
was  elected  member  of  Assembly  for  the  town  of  Three  Rivers,  and  continued  to  represent 
that  constituency  for  seven  successive  Parliaments,  and  until  advised  by  Lord  Aylmer 
that,  in  the  opinion  of  the  Colonial  Office,  "it  would  be  better  that  the  public  officers  of 
the  Province  should  exercise  'a  cautious  abstinence'  from  the  great  political  questions  of 
the  day."  Upon  this  hint,  Mr.  Ogden,  being  H.  M.  Attorney-General,  resigned  his  seat  in 
the  Assembly  and  retired  from  political  life,  as  he  supposed,  for  ever. 

The  following  facts  are  gleaned  from  a  biographical  sketch  of  his  life  published  in  a 
Quebec  newspaper.  "In  1815  he  had  received  a  silk  gown  from  Sir  Gordon  Drummond, 
and  in  181 8,  the  Duke  of  Richmond  had  appointed  him  to  act  as  H.  M.  Attorney-General 
for  the  District  of  Three  Rivers.  In  1823,  Lord  Dalhousie,  in  very  flattering  terms,  recom- 
mended him  for  the  office  of  Solicitor-General,  and  His  Majesty  was  pleased  to  confer  that 
office  upon  him,  accordingly.  In  1833,  he  was  appointed  Attorney-General  for  Lower 
Canada  by  King  William  IV.  and  was  reappointed  to  that  office  by  Queen  Victoria  on  her 
accession  to  the  throne.  From  the  date  of  his  appointment,  until  the  year  1837,  Mr.  Ogden 
resided  in  Quebec;  but  in  that  year  the  breaking  out  of  the  rebellion  made  it  his  duty  to 
proceed  to  Montreal,  where  he  continued  to  reside  until  the  union  of  the  Provinces  in  1841. 
In  1838  the  Constitution  of  Lower  Canada  was  suspended  by  Act  of  the  Imperial  Parlia- 
ment, and  the  special  Council  for  the  affairs  of  that  Province  was  created.  As  Attorney- 
General,  and  as  a  leading  member  of  that  Council,  Mr.  Ogden,  who  had  in  the  meantime 
declined  to  accept  the  office  of  Chief  Justice  of  the  district  of  Montreal,  offered  him  by  the 
Earl  of  Durham,  bore  necessarily  a  large  part  in  conducting  the  Government  of  the  country, 
under  Sir  John  Colborne  (afterwards  Lord  Seaton),  the  Earl  of  Durham  and  Mr.  Poulett 
Thomson,  afterwards  Lord  Sydenham,  and  in  the  measures  and  proceedings  necessary  to 
bring  into  operation  the  Act  for  the  Union  of  the  Canadas,  and  to  carry  out  its  provisions, 
and  he  officially  countersigned  the  proclamation  by  which  the  two  Provinces  were  made  one 
on  Feb.  10,  1841,  the  first  anniversary  of  Her  Majesty's  wedding  day.  The  opinions  held 
at  the  Colonial  Office  had  by  this  time  undergone  a  remarkable  change,  and  instead  of  being 
enjoined  a  'cautious  abstinence'  from  politics,  Mr.  Ogden  was  informed  by  Lord  Sydenham, 
that  he  was  expected  to  take  a  most  active  part  in  them,  to  obtain  a  seat  in  the  Legislative 
Assembly,  and  to  form  part  of  the  Canadian  Ministry;  that  his  emoluments  were  to  be 
reduced,  and  that  he  would  have  to  reside  at  Kingston,  the  new  seat  of  Government;  and 
he  was  possibly  not  without  a  presentiment  that  his  tenure  of  office  might  depend  on  the 
will  of  a  parliamentary  majority.  These  were  not  the  terms  upon  which  he  had  accepted 
office;  they  were  hard,  and  he  remonstrated  against  them;  but  he  was  told  that  H.  M. 
Government  held  this  change  to  be  necessary  to  the  success  of  the  policy  they  had  adopted, 
and  he  submitted,  and  was  again  returned  by  his  old  friends  the  electors  of  Three  Rivers. 
He  and  his  colleagues  conducted  the  Government  through  the  first  session  of  the  Parlia- 
ment of  United  Canada,  and  brought  that  session  to  a  successful  close,  introducing  and 
carrying  many  important  and  useful  measures.  The  untimely  death  of  Lord  Sydenham 
turned  the  administration  of  the  Government  upon  Sir  Richard  Jackson,  the  Commander 
of  H.  M.  Forces,  from  whom,  after  having  made  all  the  arrangements  necessary  for  carrying 
out  the  legislation  of  the  session,  Mr.  Ogden  obtained  leave  of  absence  for  six  months,  sub- 
sequently extended  to  a  year,  in  order  to  make  the  voyage  to  Europe  for  the  recovery  of 


t78

his  health,  which  had  suffered  severely  from  the  great  labors  and  anxiety  to  which  he  had 
for  several  years  been  subjected.  On  his  return,  before  his  leave  of  absence  had  expired, 
he  found  that,  during  that  absence,  he  and  the  ministry  of  which  he  formed  part  had  been 
removed  from  office  by  Sir  Charles  Bagot,  and  that  Mr.  Lafontaine  and  his  friends  held  the 
reins  of  Government.  He  remonstrated,  represented  that  he  had  accepted  the  appointment 
of  Attorney-General  when  the  tenure  of  that  office  was  virtually  during  good  behavior, 
and  claimed  redress,  but  in  vain.  Sir  Charles  sent  a  message  to  the  Legislative  Assembly, 
recommending  him  for  a  super-annuation  allowance  of  £625  per  annum;  but  no  motion 
was  made  to  refer  the  message  to  the  Committee  of  Supply,  until  the  day  next  before  that 
fixed  for  the  prorogation,  when  it  was  met  by  an  amendment  that  it  should  be  considered 
in  the  next  session,  which,  according  to  parliamentary  usage,  it  could  not  be;  and  it  was 
never  renewed.  Mr.  Ogden  felt  that  as  a  public  man  his  connection  with  the  Province  was 
at  an  end.  He  retired  to  England  and  appealed  to  the  Imperial  Government,  but  was  told 
that  his  claim  was  against  that  of  Canada.  His  services  were  fully  acknowledged  and  he 
was  offered  several  colonial  appointments  of  more  or  less  value,  which  he  declined;  but 
having  been  in  most  flattering  manner  called  to  the  English  Bar,  he  eventually  accepted 
the  Attorney-Generalship  of  the  Isle  of  Man,  and  was  afterwards,  upon  the  passing  of  the 
new  Probate  Act  in  1857,  appointed  to  the  office  of  District  Registrar  at  Liverpool,  and  held 
both  these  appointments  to  the  time  of  his  decease. 

"As  a  public  officer  Mr.  Ogden  performed  his  duties,  often  of  the  most  arduous  and 
trying  nature,  ably,  fearlessly  and  impartially;  and  that  he  fulfilled  them  to  the  satisfaction 
of  his  Sovereign  and  her  advisers  is  manifest  from  the  important  offices  successively  con- 
ferred on  him,  and  the  high  trust  reposed  in  him  and  never  disappointed.  In  the  conduct 
of  cases  before  the  courts  of  criminal  jurisdiction  he  was  singularly  successful,  and  this 
mainly  because,  while  he  was  earnest  in  enforcing  the  law,  he  never  forgot  that  justice  should 
be  administered  in  mercy.  As  a  member  of  the  Assembly  of  Lower  Canada  he  was  bold  and 
uncompromising  in  his  advocacy  of  what  he  believed  to  be  the  right,  speaking  plainly  what 
he  thought  in  the  face  of  overwhelming  majorities,  respected  and  even  liked  by  his  bitterest 
political  opponent  for  his  manliness  and  honesty,  his  frankness  and  good  temper.  On  the 
dark  and  troublesome  days  and  deplorable  events  between  1837  and  1841,  and  Mr.  Ogden's 
relations  to  them,  it  is  unnecessary  to  comment  here;  a  quarter  of  a  century  has  since  passed 
away,  and  we  may  leave  them  to  the  historian;  he  had  a  most  difficult  and  painful  duty  to 
perform,  and  we  believe  few  could  or  would  have  performed  it  better.  Whatever  differences 
of  opinion  may  have  existed  as  to  the  policy  which  he  was  called  upon  to  carry  out,  one  thing 
at  least  is  beyond  a  doubt — in  the  readjustment  of  affairs  after  the  storm  was  passed,  he 
exerted  himself  strenuously  to  secure  just  rights  to  all  classes  of  Her  Majesty's  subjects. 

"In  private  life  Mr.  Ogden  was  an  amiable  and  estimable  man,  of  a  genial  and  fun-loving 
temperament,  fond  of  frolic  and  happy  at  a  joke.  Kind  and  liberal  to  all  under  him  or  about 
him,  and  never  forgetting  a  friend  or  a  service  rendered,  he  had  that  power  most  essential 
to  a  public  man,  and  possessed  most  remarkably  by  the  greatest,  of  distinguishing  those 
able  to  do  good  service  and  attaching  them  firmly  and  affectionately  to  him. 

"He  died  as  he  had  lived,  a  sincere  and  pious  member  of  the  Church  of  England,  in 
which  he  had  been  brought  up  from  his  infancy,  and  to  which  he  was  most  firmly  attached." 

Mary  Aston  {Coffin)  Ogden,  first  wife  of  Charles  Richard  Ogden47o,  and  dau.  of  Gen. 
John  Coffin,  was  an  estimable  woman.  It  is  said  her  ancestors  in  Boston  were  the  ones  to 
whom  the  cargo  of  tea  was  consigned  that  started  the  Revolutionary  war. 

Susan   (Clarke)   Ogden,  the  second  wife,  was  eldest  dau.  of  Isaac  Winslow  Clarke, 
Deputy  Commissary  General  at  Montreal,  and  a  niece  of  Lord  Lyndhurst.

Peter  Skene  Ogden48o  was  one  of  the  most  illustrious  members  of  Judge  Isaac 
Ogden's'74  family.  The  father  having  espoused  the  Royalist  side  in  the  early  part  of  the 
Revolution,  and  being  required  to  abandon  his  property  in  Newark,  N.  J.,  and  to  flee  with 
his  family  to  Canada,  the  son,  Peter  Skene  OGDEN480,  was  doubtless  born  there.  His 
middle  [name  was  derived  from  the  Skene  family  of  Skenesboro,  N.Y.,  on  the  southern 
shore  of  Lake  Champlain,  now  known  as  Whitehall.  They  came  from  Skene,  near 
Aberdeen,  Scotland,  where  the  family  had  been  distinguished  in  war  and  literature. 
Philip  Skene  was  Lieut.  Gov.  of  Crown  Point  and  Ticonderoga,  and  with  his  son,  Andrew 
Philip  Skene,  entertained  the  same  political  opinions  as  did  Judge  David  Ogdenso  and 
his  son  Judge  Isaac  Ogdeni74  There  was  a  community  of  interests  between  the  two 
families,  and  a  warm  and  lasting  friendship.  An  "Andrew"  Skene,  probably  the  son 
aforenamed,  and  an  eminent  jurist,  was  godfather  of  Peter  Skene  Ogden48o.  He  and 
the  latter's  father,  Judge  Isaac  Ogden1 74,  went  to  England  to  petition  the  Crown  for  redress 
in  losses  incurred  during  the  war,  not  only  for  their  fathers'  families,  but  for  Loyalists 
generally. 

Peter  Skene  Ogden48o  was  destined  to  become  one  of  the  most  able,  energetic  and 
renowned  spirits  of  the  great  Northwest  section  of  America.  He  was  for  a  short  time  in  the 
service  of  Mr.  Astor,  but  in  181 1  he  entered  the  service  of  the  Northwest  Company,  and  after 
the  latter  was  amalgamated  with  the  Hudson's  Bay  Company  in  1821,  he  was  at  once 
transferred  to  the  Western  department.  He  was  active  in  establishing  trading  posts  with 
Indian  tribes,  and  negotiating  commercial  relations  with  them.  In  one  of  his  expeditions 
he  discovered  the  Humboldt  River.  At  this  time  he  is  described  as  being  "short,  dark- 
skinned,  and  rather  rough  in  his  manner,  but  lively  and  witty,  and  a  favorite  with  every- 
body.    He  was  a  great  practical  joker,  carrying  his  love  of  fun  and  frolic  to  great  lengths." 

For  twenty  years  subsequent  to  1824,  John  McLaughlin  had  been  the  dominant  spirit 
of  the  Hudson's  Bay  Co.  and  of  the  northwest  coast,  residing  at  Fort  Vancouver  on  the 
Columbia  River.  Because  of  his  humanity  toward  distressed  emigrants  and  undue  famili- 
arity with  United  States  settlers,  the  London  management  sought  to  weaken  his  position 
by  vesting  the  supreme  power  on  the  Pacific  in  a  board  of  management  consisting  of  Mc- 
Laughlin, James  Douglas  and  Peter  Skene  Ogden  as  chief  factors.  When  Dr.  McLaughlin 
retired,  Douglas  and  Ogden  continued  the  management  as  a  board  with  headquarters  still 
at  Fort  Vancouver.  Bancroft  calls  them  "fearless,  warm-hearted,  open-handed  and  clear- 
headed." 

In  1846  James  Douglas  had  removed  to  Vancouver  Island,  where  a  post  had  been  estab- 
lished at  Victoria,  and  which  became  the  Company's  headquarters,  and  Peter  Skene  Ogden 


^cfccntl)  Generation 


was  in  command  on  the  Columbia.  He  was  a  man  of  wonderful  genius  and  tact,  and  when- 
ever the  Hudson's  Bay  Co.  had  occasion  to  send  one  of  their  officers  on  a  delicate  and  danger- 
ous mission,  Peter  Skene  Ogden  was  the  man  chosen  for  it.  A  writer  says  of  him:  "His 
even  temper,  his  great  flow  of  good  humor,  and  his  wonderful  patience,  tact  and  perseverance, 
his  utter  disregard  of  personal  inconvenience  and  suffering,  rendered  him  just  the  man  for 
any  difficult  or  dangerous  task,  He  was  greatly  esteemed  by  his  brother  officers  and  almost 
worshipped  by  his  men  and  by  the  Indians." 

After  more  than  thirty  years  of  these  experiences,  his  last  great  work  was  in  connection 
with  the  "Whitman  massacre  at  Waiilatpu  in  1847  by  the  Cay  uses,  when  the  missionary  Dr. 
Whitman,  his  wife,  and  nine  other  whites  were  slain  by  the  savages.  Within  twenty-four 
hours  after  Mr.  McBean's  messenger  arrived  with  tidings  of  the  murderous  work  of  the 
Cayuses,  a  force  was  equipped  and  dispatched  under  command  of  Mr.  Ogdbn  for  Walla 
Walla,  where  the  surviving  captives  were  held  by  the  Indians.  The  whole  matter  of  rescue 
being  left  to  Mr.  Ogden,  he  made  haste  to  negotiate  with  the  Indians  before  an  American 
army  could  reach  them,  knowing  full  well  that  if  it  were  known  that  a  company  of  militia 
was  marching  on  Walla  Walla,  the  rage  of  the  savages  would  know  no  bounds,  and  that 
every  captive  would  be  slain.  Taking  sixteen  men,  he  left  Vancouver,  Oregon,  on  Dec.  7, 
and  hastened  up  the  Columbia  to  The  Dalles,  where  he  found  the  Indians  had  the  previous 
day  taken  four  horses  from  the  Mission  enclosure,  signifying  nothing  less  than  hostilities. 
Upon  Mr.  Ogden's  advice,  Mr.  Hinman  removed  his  family  and  all  other  Americans  at  The 
Dalles  to  Willamette.  Ogden  and  his  party  arrived  at  Fort  Walla  Walla  on  the  evening 
of  Dec.  19,  and  found  that  none  of  the  captives  had  been  killed,  although  they  had  been 
"decreed  against."  Prior  to  Mr.  Ogden's  arrival,  and  as  soon  as  Mr.  McBean  had  learned 
the  intention  of  the  Cayuses,  he  sent  his  interpreter  to  warn  them  that  "they  had  already 
gone  too  far,"  and  to  request  them  to  desist  from  further  crimes.  "When  my  messenger 
arrived,"  he  says,  "Indian  women,  armed  with  knives  and  other  implements  of  war,  were 
already  assembled  near  the  house  where  the  captives  were,  awaiting  the  order  of  chief 
Tiloukaikt,  who  was  present.  On  being  informed  of  my  request,  he  hung  down  his  head  and 
paused,  then  with  a  wave  of  his  hand  peremptorily  ordered  the  women  away,  who,  abusing 
him,  called  him  a  coward." 

Mr.  Ogden's  first  effort  was  to  call  a  council  of  chiefs  to  learn  their  plans  in  regard  to 
their  prisoners.  Couriers  were  immediately  dispatched  and  the  council  assembled  on  the 
23d.  The  Indians'  hope  of  securing  peace  with  the  Americans  depended  upon  the  retaining 
of  Mr.  Spalding  and  the  captive  families  as  hostages.  Ogden's  speech  on  the  occasion  was 
as  follows:  "We  have  been  among  you  for  thirty  years,  without  the  shedding  of  blood. 
We  are  traders,  and  of  a  different  nation  from  the  Americans.  But,  recollect,  we  supply  you 
with  ammunition,  not  to  kill  Americans,  who  are  of  the  same  color,  speak  the  same  language, 
and  worship  the  same  God  as  ourselves,  and  whose  cruel  fate  causes  our  hearts  to  bleed. 
Why  do  we  make  you  chiefs  if  you  cannot  control  your  young  men  ?  Beside  this  wholesale 
butchery,  you  have  robbed  the  Americans  passing  through  your  country,  and  have  insulted 
their  women.  If  you  allow  your  young  men  to  govern  you,  I  say  you  are  not  men  or  chiefs, 
but  hermaphrodites  who  do  not  deserve  the  name.  Your  hot-headed  young  men  plume 
themselves  on  their  bravery;  but  let  them  not  deceive  themselves.  If  the  Americans  begin 
war,  they  will  have  cause  to  repent  their  rashness,  for  the  war  will  not  end  until  every  man 
of  you  is  cut  off  from  the  face  of  the  earth!  I  am  aware  that  many  of  your  people  have 
died.  But  so  have  others.  It  was  not  Dr.  Whitman  who  poisoned  them;  but  God  who  has 
commanded  that  they  should  die.  You  have  the  opportunity  to  make  some  reparation. 
I  give  you  only  advice,  and  promise  you  nothing,  should  war  be  declared  against  you.  The 
company  will  have  nothing  to  do  with  your  quarrel.  If  you  wish  it,  on  my  return  I  will 
see  what  can  be  done  for  you;  but  I  do  not  promise  to  prevent  war.  Deliver  me  the  prisoners 
to  return  to  their  friends  and  I  will  pay  you  a  ransom,  that  is  all." 


C^e-€>gDcn  ^family 


Mr.  Ogden  wished  to  secure  the  rescue  of  the  prisoners  without  altering  the  relations 
of  the  company  with  the  Indians,  whose  friendship  they  had  long  possessed  and  did  not 
want  to  lose;  neither  would  he  anticipate  the  action  of  the  American  Government  or  people. 
Bancroft  continues:  "The  Indian  impulse,  shifting  as  the  sands  of  the  sea,  gave  way  to 
Ogden's  superior  will.  With  some  weak  efforts  to  excuse  the  disposition  to  yield,  Tauitau 
consented  to  the  ransom  of  the  captives.  The  Hudson's  Bay  Company's  men  were  married 
to  Indian  women,  and  were  therefore  his  brothers;  he  could  not  refuse  his  brother's  request. 
Tiloukaikt,  besides  the  tie  of  blood,  recognized  the  claim  of  the  company  upon  him  made 
by  allowing  their  dead  to  be  buried  side  by  side.  'Chief!'  he  cried,  'your  words  are  weighty 
— your  hairs  are  gray.  We  have  known  you  a  long  time.  You  have  had  an  unpleasant 
journey  to  this  place.  I  cannot,  therefore,  keep  the  families  back.  I  make  them  over  to 
you,  which  I  would  not  do  to  another  younger  than  yourself.'  "  Peupeumoxmox  remarked 
the  Americans  were  changeable,  but  agreed  to  release  of  captives.  The  Nez  Perce  chiefs 
consented  to  return  to  Lapwai  at  once  and  bring  Mr.  Spalding  the  missionary  and  others 
at  that  station.  Mr.  Ogden  sent  a  letter  by  the  young  chiefs  urging  Mr.  Spalding  to  lose  no 
time  in  joining  him  at  Walla  Walla.  He  despatched  another  letter  to  the  Chemakane  Mission 
in  which  he  expressed  his  great  anxiety  which  had  not  permitted  him  to  sleep  for  two  nights. 
This  letter  was  not  written  till  Dec.  31,  and  the  alarm  was  occasioned  by  the  fact  that  he 
had  no  sooner  received  the  captives  on  the  29th  as  per  agreement,  than  a  rumor  reached  the 
natives  of  the  arrival  of  the  first  company  of  volunteer  riflemen  at  Walla  Walla.  But  to 
his  great  relief  Mr.  Spalding  arrived  Jan.  1,  accompanied  by  a  large  force  of  Nez  Perces. 
"After  spending  another  night  in  earnest  council  with  these  natives,  always  more  friendly 
and  tractable  than  their  relatives  the  Cayuses,  Ogden  embarked  the  ransomed  company 
for  Vancouver,  thankful  to  be  able  to  do  so." 

"A  courier  bearing  a  dispatch  to  Gov.  Abernethy  of  Oregon  Ter'y  reached  Oregon  City 
on  Sunday  morning.  The  letter,  stating  that  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Spalding,  Mr.  Stanley,  the  artist, 
and  all  the  captive  women  and  children  were  under  Mr.  Ogden's  care  and  had  reached  Van- 
couver, was  read  before  the  congregation,  and  the  greatest  excitement  prevailed  of  mingled 
gladness,  gratitude,  and  sorrow."  The  ransomed  captives  were  delivered  to  the  Governor 
in  Oregon  City  the  following  day.  As  the  three  boats  passed  Portland,  as  also  on  arrival 
at  the  Falls,  a  salute  was  fired,  "the  compliment  being  intended  to  express  the  general 
gratitude  of  the  people  to  the  gallant  man  who  had  effected  their  release." 

On  the  17th  the  Governor  indited  the  following  letter  to  Mr.  Ogden:  "Sir:  I  feel 
it  a  duty  as  well  as  a  pleasure  to  tender  you  my  sincere  thanks,  and  the  thanks  of  this  com- 
munity, for  your  exertions  in  behalf  of  the  widows  and  orphans  that  were  left  in  the  hands 
of  the  Cayuse  Indians.  Their  state  was  a  deplorable  one,  subject  to  the  caprice  of  savages, 
exposed  to  their  insults,  compelled  to  labor  for  them,  and  remaining  constantly  in  dread 
lest  they  should  be  butchered  as  their  husbands  and  fathers  had  been.  From  this  state 
I  am  fully  satisfied  we  could  not  relieve  them.  A  small  party  of  Americans  would  have 
been  looked  upon  with  contempt;  a  large  party  would  have  been  a  signal  for  a  general 
massacre.  Your  immediate  departure  from  Vancouver  on  receipt  of  the  intelligence  from 
Waiilatpu  enabling  you  to  arrive  at  Walla  Walla  before  the  news  of  the  American  party 
having  started  from  this  reached  them,  together  with  your  influence  over  the  Indians, 
accomplished  the  desirable  object  of  relieving  the  distressed.  Your  exertions  in  behalf 
of  the  prisoners  will  no  doubt  cause  a  feeling  of  pleasure  to  you  through  life,  but  this  does 
not  relieve  them  nor  us  from  the  obligations  we  are  under  to  you.  You  have  also  laid  the 
American  government  under  obligation  to  you,  for  their  citizens  were  the  subjects  of  the 
massacre,  and  their  widows  and  orphans  are  the  relieved  ones.  With  a  sincere  prayer  that 
the  widow's  God  and  the  Father  of  the  fatherless  may  reward  you  for  your  kindness,  I  have 
the  honor  to  remain,  your  obedient  servant, 

"George  Abernethy, 

"  Governor  of  Oregon  Territory. 
"To  Peter  Skene  Ogden,  Esq., 

"Chief  Factor  Honorable  H.  B.  Company,  Vancouver."

Mr.  Ogden  replied  as  follows: 

"George  Abernethy,  Esq.,  Governor  of  Oregon  Territory.  Sir:  I  have  to  acknowledge 
the  receipt  of  your  highly  flattering  letter  of  the  19th  inst.,  and  the  high  value  you  lay  upon 
my  services  in  rescuing  so  many  fellow-creatures  from  captivity,  but  the  meed  of  praise  is 
not  due  to  me  alone.  I  was  the  mere  acting  agent  of  the  Hudson's  Bay  Company;  for 
without  its  powerful  aid  and  influence  nothing  could  have  been  effected,  and  to  them  the 
praise  is  due.  And  permit  me  to  add,  should,  unfortunately,  which  God  avert,  our  services 
be  again  required  under  similar  circumstances,  I  trust  you  will  not  find  us  wanting  in  going 
to  their  relief.     I  have  the  honor  to  remain, 

"  Yours  most  respectfully, 

"  Peter  Skene  Ogden." 

Mr.  Ogden's  letter  appeared  in  the  Spectator,  prefaced  by  the  remark  that  "the  act 
of  rescuing  so  many  defenceless  women  and  children  from  the  bloody  and  cruel  grasp  of 
savages  merits,  ajid  we  believe  receives,  the  universal  thanks  and  gratitude  of  the  people 
of  Oregon.     Such  an  act  is  the  legitimate  offspring  of  a  noble,  generous,  and  manly  heart." 

Peter  Skene  OgdenmSo  came  east  in  1844,  and  in  1853  visited  Canada,  England,  and 
the  United  States,  and  called  upon  his  brothers  and  sisters.  It  had  been  his  habit  to  corre- 
spond with  his  father  and  mother  during  their  lives,  and  with  his  brothers  and  sisters  to 
the  time  of  his  death,  often  inclosing  contributions  from  his  generous  purse. 

As  to  his  domestic  life,  Peter  Skene  Ogden4S°  married  Julia  Reava,  a  lady  pre- 
sumably of  Indian  descent,  to  whom  he  was  always  devotedly  attached,  and  who  was  the 
mother  of  all  his  children.  He  died  in  Oregon  City,  Sept.  27,  1854,  aged  60  years.  His  will 
is  dated  June  15,  1851,  and  was  probated  May  15,  1855.  The  executors  were  Sir  George 
Simpson,  Gov.  of  Rupert's  Land,  Archibald  McKinley,  of  the  Hudson's  Bay  Co.,  and  Thomas 
B.  Anderson,  of  Montreal,  Can.  The  will  disposes  of  about  £4,600  beside  Montreal  Bank 
stock,  and  shares  in  Pugets  Sound  Agricultural  Co.,  to  his  children,  grandchildren,  to  Ann 
(Ogden)  Hopkins'334,  to  brother  Henry's476  youngest  daughter,  and  to  Fabien  Resel,  son 
of  Joseph  Resel,  for  his  education,  he  having  been  adopted  when  8  mos.  old  by  Mr.  Ogden.

Cornell  Edwards,  b.  Mar.  1,  1776;  d.  Apr.  19,  1852;  dau.  of  Isaac 
Edwards  and  Mary  Cornell,  his  wife. 

Judge  David  A.  Ogden48s  was  born  in  New  Jersey,  his  father  Abraham  Ogden' 76 
being  Surrogate  of  Morris  Co.  and  residing  in  Morristown  until  after  the  Revolutionary  War, 
when  the  family  removed  to  Newark. 

The  following  biographical  sketch  of  David  A.  Ogden48s  was  furnished  by  his  nephew, 
John  Greig  Ogdeni47s. 

"With  all  the  advantages  of  a  college  education  and  early  associations  of  the  best 
character,  together  with  strong  hereditary  claims  to  natural  ability  of  a  high  order,  he  took 
up  the  study  of  the  law  in  the  city  of  New  York,  and  in  due  time  entered  the  profession, 
soon  attaining  both  eminence  and  success.  On  30  May  1797,  he  married  Rebecca  Cornell 
Edwards,  a  southern  lady  of  distinction,  and  was  for  some  years  a  resident  of  the  city  of 
New  York. 

"It  was  at  a  time,  however,  when  the  public  mind  was  largely  under  the  influence  of 
what  was  known  at  the  time  as  the  '  Expansion  Idea, '  and  the  great  Louisiana  Purchase  of 
1803.  The  nascent  possibilities  of  the  young  and  vigorous  country  were  becoming  more  and 
more  obvious  to  the  thoughtful  mind;  they  appealed  most  forcibly  to  the  young  lawyer. 
The  example,  too,  of  his  personal  friends  and  near  relatives  who  were  then  investing  in 
northern  wild  lands,  and  also  urging  him  to  represent  their  interests  in  that  locality,  so  far 
strengthened  his  own  convictions  that  he  finally  concluded  to  identify  himself  with  the 
opening  up  and  development  of  St.  Lawrence  county  in  the  northern  part  of  the  state  of 
New  York  and  bordering  on  the  majestic  St.  Lawrence  river.  Accordingly,  during  the 
intervals  of  business,  he  made  frequent  visits  there,  at  the  same  time  investing  largely 
for  himself  and  others  in  the  wild  lands  of  the  county  in  the  vicinity  of  Ogdensburg  (which 
took  its  name  from  him)  and  of  Hamilton,  afterward  called  Waddington,  at  which  point 
he  proposed  eventually  to  settle.  Here  he  arranged  plans  for  the  utilization  of  the  fine 
water  power,  and  the  construction  of  the  necessary  dam  and  bridge  to  the  island,  and  other 
improvements,  availing  himself  temporarily  of  local  agents  for  the  conduct  and  supervision 
of  the  work.  Finally,  in  or  about  the  year  1811,  he  went  there  with  the  full  intention  of 
remaining  permanently  and  growing  up  with  the  country,  and  with  strong  faith  in  its  future. 

"A  man  of  fine  presence  and  high  character, — alert,  progressive,  and  large-minded, — 
in  short,  fitted  by  nature  to  be  a  leader  of  men,  he  soon  became  one  of  the  most  noted  of 
all  the  pioneers  of  that  portion  of  the  state,  quickly  gaining  their  respect  and  confidence, 
and  demonstrating  at  the  same  time  his  eminent  fitness  to  be  their  counsellor  and  political 
representative.  Accordingly  we  find  him  appointed  Judge  of  the  Court  of  Common  Pleas, 
serving  from  1811  to  1815.  Shortly  after,  he  was  elected  Representative  to  Congress  from 
the  Twentieth  District,  serving  from  1817  to  1821.  Subsequently,  he  was  again  appointed 
Judge  of  Common  Pleas  from  1820  to'  1824,  and  reappointed  as  such  Judge  from  1825  to 
1829.

"Concurrently  with  these  public  duties,  Mr.  Ogden's  life  was  in  all  respects  an 
unusually  full  and  active  one.  His  own  private  business  and  the  cares  and  occupations  of 
domestic  and  social  life,  the  large  representative  interests  committed  to  his  charge,  and 
the  many  demands  made  upon  his  time  and  resources  by  a  community  which  looked  up  to 
him  as  its  friend  and  adviser,  gave  him  occupation  enough  to  fully  employ  the  administra- 
tive talent  and  executive  ability  with  which  he  was  gifted. 

"He  was  one  of  the  Commissioners  appointed  by  the  general  government  to  define 
and  settle  the  boundary  line  between  Canada  and  the  States,  with  reference  more  particu- 
larly to  the  islands  in  the  St.  Lawrence  river.  One  of  them,  the  Isle  au  Rapide  de  Plat, 
then  so-called  and  afterward  and  still  known  as  Ogden's  Island,  opposite  the  village  of 
Waddington,  containing  nearly  a  thousand  acres,  was  bought  by  him  from  Daniel  McCor- 
mick,  the  original  patentee,  in  1815,  and  upon  it  he  shortly  afterwards  erected  a  large 
and  handsome  mansion,  in  which  he  raised  a  numerous  family,  and  which  still  remains  to 
commemorate  his  name.  The  dearth  of  labor  in  the  conditions  then  prevailing  was  a 
serious  problem;  the  solution  of  it  was  much  aided  by  Mr.  Ogden,  who  personally  exerted 
himself  to  tap  the  stream  of  Irish  immigration  at  Montreal,  and  draw  from  it  enough  to 


'    ''.       ■' 


supply  the  local  demands  of  the  settlement.  At  an  early  date  he  also  initiated  measures  for 
the  building  of  a  church.  Beginning  it  about  1812,  and  with  some  aid  from  Trinity  Church, 
New  York,  and  personal  friends,  but  most  largely  through  his  own  means  and  efforts,  it 
was  finally  completed,  paid  for,  and  consecrated  22  August  1818.  He  gave  it  two  hundred 
and  fifty  acres  of  glebe  lands,  and  twenty-five  acres  for  a  cemetery.  He  also  gave  the  village 
a  considerable  tract  of  land  for  a  public  park,  showing  in  this  way  the  spirit  that  animated 
him  in  all  his  relations  to  the  people  among  whom  he  had  come  to  live.  It  was  a  busy, 
useful  and  honorable  life,  but  a  short  one,  Mr.  Ogden  having  died  while  yet  in  its  prime,  on 
June  11,  1829;    and  it  was  a  life  that  did  honor  to  his  God,  his  country,  and  himself." 

The  following  epitaphs  are  on  tablets  in  the  chancel  of  St.  Paul's  Church,  Waddington, 
N.  Y.: 

"Sacred  to  the  memory  of  David  A.  Ogden,  born  in  New  Jersey,  Jan.  10th  1770; 
died  at  Montreal  June  nth  1829. 

"This  tablet  is  designed  not  to  delineate  his  public  or  private  virtues,  but  to  testify 
the  veneration  with  which  his  memory  is  cherished  by  an  afflicted  family." 

"Sacred  to  the  memory  of  Rebecca  Cornell  Ogden,  relict  of  David  A.  Ogden,  born 
in  Newberry,  N.  C.  March  1st,  1776;    died  at  Waddington,  N.  Y.  April  10,   1852. 

"This  tablet  is  erected  by  her  son  David,  as  an  earnest  of  his  deep  love  and  respect 
for  her  memory."

"they  were  the  creme  of  the  creme  of  New  York  society.  They  were  the  founders  of  our  great 
commercial  city,  and  their  names  should  be  honored  as  long  as  the  city  endures."  The 
establishment  was  to  be  used  as  a  Coffee  House,  "and  for  no  other  use  or  purpose,  until 
the  number  of  nominees  should  be  reduced  to  seven,"  when  the  property  was  to  be  sold 
and  the  proceeds  divided  between  the  seven  remaining  shareholders.

Thomas  Ludlow  Ogden4»s  was  probably  born  in  Morristown,  N.  J.,  his  father,  Abra- 
ham Ogden,  Esq.  w6  being  many  years  Surrogate  of  Morris  Co.  and  living  in  Morristown 
until  the  close  of  the  Revolution,  when  he  removed  his  family  to  Newark,  N.  J.  His  nephew, 
John  Greig  Ogden'475  furnished  the  following  biography: 

"Graduating  from  Columbia  College  in  the  year  1791,  he  soon  afterwards  commenced 
the  practice  of  law  in  the  city  of  New  York.  He  and  his  elder  brother  David  A.  Ogden4«s 
being  partners  became  associated  in  business  with  Alexander  Hamilton  upon  his  resuming 
the  practice  of  law  after  his  retirement  from  the  office  of  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  in  the 
cabinet  of  Washington.  Mr.  Ogden  became  one  of  the  leading  lawyers  of  his  day,  devoting 
himself  more  particularly  to  the  specialties  of  wills,  trusts,  and  equity  jurisprudence;  he 
acted  as  counsel  for  corporations  and  prominent  families  in  the  city.  He  was  for  many 
years,  and  at  the  time  of  his  death,  a  trustee  of  Columbia  College,  was  for  thirty-eight  years 
a  Vestryman  of  Trinity  Church  and  Clerk  of  the  Vestry,  as  standing  counsel  for  which  it 
was  his  official  duty  to  defend  the  rights  of  the  corporation  with  its  vast  property  against 


€^c  £>gt)cn  jfamtli? 


assaults  from  many  quarters.  He  was  also  prominent  in  the  foundation  and  management 
of  important  church  institutions  and  societies,  and  for  many  years  represented  the  church 
in  her  conventions  both  general  and  diocesan.  His  death  occurred  in  the  city  of  New  York 
Dec.  17,  1844.  No  higher  tribute  to  his  worth  can  be  given  than  the  following  words 
inscribed  on  the  monument  in  Trinity  Church,  New  York,  which  was  erected  by  its  Vestry 
to  his  memory: 

"  '  Of  a  sound  judgment  and  untiring  industry,  the  one  improved  by  diligent  cultivation, 
the  other  quickened  by  religious  principle,  his  long  life  was  one  of  usefulness  and  duty  to 
his  family,  his  profession,  and  to  society. 

"  '  Born  and  nurtured  in  the  bosom  of  the  Church,  he  gave  back  to  her,  with  filial  grati- 
tude, his  best  powers,  his  most  valued  time,  his  dearest  affections;  and  in  all  her  institutions 
stood  foremost  in  both  counsel  and  action.  Christian  obedience  marked  his  course,  chris- 
tian peace  crowned  his  end,  and  in  a  christian  hope  he  now  rests  from  his  labors.'  "

His  son  John  Greig  Ogden'47s  was  the  author  of  the  following  biographical  sketch: 

"Gouverneur  Ogden4»i,  son  of  Abraham  Ogden'7<>  and  Sarah  Frances  Ludlow,  was 
born  in  New  Jersey  Aug.  10,  1778.  Graduating  from  Columbia  College  in  1796,  acquiring 
subsequently  a  legal  education,  and  liberally  endowed  by  nature,  but  without  fortune,  he 
was  called  at  an  early  age  to  face  the  problem  of  life.  His  first  undertaking  was  to  accept, 
at  the  instance  and  on  behalf  of  the  leaders  of  the  Federalist  and  conservative  party 
in  New  York,  a  confidential  mission  to  the  old  Natchez  district  of  West  Florida  in  order 
to  have  a  conference  there  with  the  Honorable  Winthrop  Sargent  who,  up  to  1801,  had  been 
its  territorial  Governor  and  stood  high  in  the  estimation  of  the  cultured  community  then 
resident  in  the  district.  He  accordingly  left  New  York  8  February,  1803,  for  Philadelphia, 
going  thence  by  stage  to  Lancaster;  thence  on  horseback  over  the  mountains  to  Pittsburgh 
where,  on  18  February,  he  embarked  with  two  men  in  an  open  boat,  and  after  five  weeks 
journey  on  the  Ohio  and  Mississippi  rivers,  rowing  by  day  and  floating  by  night,  a  situation 
full  of  exposure,  hardship  and  danger,  he  finally  reached  Natchez  on  the  24th  March.  Here, 
at  the  political  headquarters  of  that  growing  though  distant  part  of  the  country,  so  great 
was  the  extent  and  strength  of  public  sentiment  on  the  subject  of  expansion,  then  as  now 
a  vital  question,  and  just  on  the  point  of  solution  through  the  cession  by  France  of  the  vast 
Louisiana  tract,  that  it  hardly  needed  his  interview  with  Governor  Sargent  to  confirm  the 
obvious  fact  that  the  administration  policy  of  expansion  was  then  largely  in  the  ascendent. 
After  a  week  of  rest  and  conference  with  Governor  Sargent,  he  resumed  his  journey  by  boat 
to  New  Orleans,  where  he  embarked  6  April  on  ship  for  New  York,  arriving  there  21  April, 
1803,  a  journey  of  two  and  a  half  months  for  an  object  obtainable  today  in  as  many  hours. 
Thus  returning,  he  resumed  and  completed  his  law  studies.  Afterwards,  becoming  deeply 
impressed  by  the  then  very  prevalent  idea  of  the  desirability  of  investment  in  the  wild  lands 
of  western  and  northern  New  York,  he  went  to  England  and  also  to  Germany,  with  the 


%\)t  £>8&cu  family 


intention  of  impressing  these  views  on  foreign  capitalists.  In  this  he  was  successful,  and 
returning  home,  he  located  himself  at  Hamilton  (afterwards  Waddington)  on  the  St.  Law- 
rence river.  Here  was  the  scene  of  his  future  labors,  and  of  a  domestic  life  rarely  excelled  in 
felicity.  The  erection  of  flour-mills  and  furnaces,  the  direction  of  the  resulting  business, 
and  the  management  of  the  extensive  landed  interests  committed  to  his  care,  the  building 
of  a  large  mansion  called  '  Ellerslie, '  in  which  he  raised  a  numerous  family,  all  these  added 
to  a  wide  circle  of  social  life  embracing  the  best  and  most  prominent  people  of  the  state  and 
of  the  country,  afforded  the  varied  and  abundant  materials  of  a  life  not  without  its  cares 
and  responsibilities,  but  of  more  than  common  interest,  happiness,  and  average  attainment. 
Honored,  esteemed  and  respected  while  he  lived,  he  left  at  his  death  an  unspotted  character, 
and  a  name  held  in  loving  remembrance  by  all  who  knew  him.  He  died  at  the  residence 
of  his  son  G.  Parish  Ogden,  Troy,  N.  Y.,  March  4,  1851,  in  the  72d  year  of  his  age." 

"Ellerslie"  was  built  by  Gouverneur  Ogden4«i  ;n  ^04.     It  was  destroyed  by  fire 
in  1840,  the  accompanying  illustration  being  drawn  from  a  photograph  taken  about  1887.

G.  Ogden,  his  wife. 

Isaac  Ogden's4os  biography  is  thus  given  by  the  St.  Lawrence  Republican,  of  June  18, 
1867: 

"The  recent  decease  of  one  of  the  oldest  citizens  of  our  county  demands  from  the  press 
more  than  the  ordinary  notice  of  his  departure.  Isaac  Ogden,  who  died  at  Waddington 
(N.  Y.)  on  the  6th  instant,  at  the  advanced  age  of  eighty-three  years,  was  a  man  of  more 
than  ordinary  talent  and  business  enterprise.  He  was  born  at  Newark,  N.  J.,  on  the  nth 
day  of  October,  1784.  He  received  a  liberal  education,  and  was  a  ripe  scholar.  At  the  age 
of  eighteen,  after  the  death  of  his  father,  Abraham  Ogden,  then  Attorney  General  of  the 
State  of  New  Jersey,  he  went  abroad  to  enter  a  commercial  house  of  high  standing.  Here 
his  unusual  talent  for  business,  his  assiduous  attention  to  his  duties,  and  his  strict  integrity 
in  all  matters  committed  to  his  care,  so  won  the  confidence  of  his  employers  that  soon  after 
his  majority  he  became  one  of  the  members  of  the  house,  and  one  of  the  most  trusted  of  its 
agents  in  the  transaction  of  an  extended  commerce,  devolving  upon  him  responsibilities 
of  great  magnitude. 

"Ardently  attached  to  his  native  country,  and  desiring  to  return  to  it  at  the  earliest 
period  his  engagements  would  permit,  he,  while  abroad,  declined  many  advantageous  busi- 
ness connections,  which  would  have  made  his  residence  in  a  foreign  land,  a  permanent  one. 
After  an  absence  of  eighteen  years,  spent  principally  in  France,  he  returned  to  this  country 
and  established  himself  in  a  mercantile  business  in  New  Orleans,  where  he  amassed  a  large 
fortune,  which  was  wrecked  in  the  commercial  convulsions  of  1836.  For  the  next  few  years, 
his  most  earnest  efforts  were  directed  to  the  extrication  of  himself  and  his  associates  from 
their  pecuniary  embarrassments,  and  this  accomplished,  with  a  cheerful  courage,  he  turned 
from  the  strife  and  turmoil  of  commerce,  to  the  peaceful  pursuit  of  agriculture,  and  sweets 
of  domestic  privacy.  From  his  beautiful  retreat  at  'The  Island,'  one  of  those  exquisite 
gems  which  adorn  the  majestic  St.  Lawrence,  he  watched  the  moral  and  political  changes 
of  the  times  with  intense  interest,  and  often  with  a  prescience  almost  prophetic.  And  here, 
surrounded  by  an  interesting  family,  his  career  drew  to  a  peaceful  close,  cheered  by  the 
hopes  of  a  gospel  which  he  early  embraced,  and  which  had  sustained  him  amid  the  many 
trials  of  his  extended  life,  and  here  in  a  beautiful  spot  on  his  loved  'Island'  home,  he  awaits 
the  fruition  of  his  Christian  faith. 

"In  manners,  he  was  a  gentleman  of  the  old  school,  and  in  his  opinions,  he  was  clear 
and  decided.  His  frankness  carried  conviction  of  the  honesty  of  his  purposes,  and  inspired 
a  respect  for  his  person  and  character,  and  his  unwavering  kindness  of  heart,  and  pureness 
of  life  rendered  him  the  idol  of  the  family  circle  where  his  memory  will  long  be  tenderly 
revered,  and  his  many  virtues  cherished. 

"He  was  held  in  peculiarly  tender  reverence  by  a  large  circle  of  friends,  from  the  fact 
that,  added  to  his  many  genial  qualities  of  heart  and  mind,  he  was  the  last  of  a  noble  genera- 
tion of  men  and  women,  many  of  whom  were  associated  with  those  most  loved  and  honored 
in  our  country."

James  De  Peyster  Ogdensso  began  his  business  career  as  a  clerk  in  the  mercantile 
firm  of  Van  Home  &  Clarkson,  in  New  York  City,  and  soon  became  a  trusted  agent  for  the 
firm  abroad.  While  in  Liverpool,  Eng.,  he  acted  for  a  time  as  U.  S.  Consul  under  President 
Jackson. 

He  deeply  deplored  the  Civil  War,  and  his  sympathies  were  very  strong  with  the  South; 
yet  he  recognized  the  duty  of  opposing  secession,  and  exerted  all  his  powers  against  it. 
As  a  merchant,  his  record  for  over  fifty  years  stands  without  a  mark  of  unfairness  or  unjust- 
ness  against  it.  CHILDREN  (Chart  4) :

Sept.  30,  1788;  d.  Chicago,  111.,  Oct.  9,  1850;  dau.  of  Lieut.  James  Weed 
and  Sarah  Richards,  his  wife. 

"Abraham  Ogdens75  was  born  in  Hanover  township,  Morris  Co.,  N.  J.,  Nov.  24,  1771. 
From  papers  left  by  his  son,  the  late  William  B.  Ogden  of  Chicago,  and  from  the  land  records 
of  Morris  Co.,  the  location  of  the  house  in  which  Abraham  Ogdens7s  was  born  has  been 
ascertained. 

"His  father,  John  Ogden^*,  at  the  time  of  the  Revolutionary  War,  owned  and  operated 
a  mill  on  a  stream  that  empties  into  the  Whippany  river  near  Whippany  village.  Where 
the  road  leading  from  Morristown,  N.  J.,  to  Parsippany  crosses  this  stream,  the  remains  of 
the  house  and  mill  could  be  seen  only  a  few  years  ago.  Here  John  Ogden  made  flour  for  the 
army  at  Morristown,  and  it  is  stated  that  his  wife  often  made  the  flour  into  bread  for  the 
hungry  soldiers.  The  property  afterwards  came  into  possession  of  his  son  Abrahams75 
and  so  remained  until  May  3,  1819,  when  he  sold  it  to  John  Canfield. 

"When  about  18  years  of  age,  Abraham  determined  to  seek  his  fortune  elsewhere, 
and  set  out  for  Washington,  the  then  newly-adopted  seat  of  government.  Arriving  at 
Philadelphia  he  visited  the  Dickinson  family,  who  had  formerly  lived  in  Morris  Co.,  and  was 
convinced  by  them  that  the  upper  Delaware  country  offered  greater  advantages  to  ener- 
getic settlers  than  did  Washington.  Accordingly  he  joined  a  company  that  Jesse  Dickinson 
was  organizing,  and  went  with  it  to  what  is  now  Cannonsville,  in  Delaware  Co.,  N.  Y. 

"They  built  the  first  mill  on  the  Delaware  river,  calling  it  the  Federal  Mill,  as  it  was 
built  about  the  time  of  the  adoption  of  the  first  Constitution  of  the  United  States  establish- 
ing Federal  authority.  The  settlement  was  known  as  the  'Dickinson  Settlement,'  'The  City,' 
and  as  'Federal  Bar.'     Finally  it  became  'Cannonsville,'  which  name  it  has  since  retained. 

"What  induced  Abraham  Ogdens75  to  leave  the  Dickinson  Settlement  does  not  appear, 
but  in  1797  we  find  him  on  the  west  branch  of  the  Delaware,  just  above  the  present  village 
of  Walton,  N.  Y.  With  him  were  his  brothers  Isaac576,  Jacobs78  and  Williams8o|  the  latter 
a  boy  of  11  years.  Abraham  and  Isaac  purchased  land  adjoining  the  east  line  of  the  Walton 
tract  and  erected  a  saw-mill  just  below  Weed's  Bridge,  so  called  after  Lieut.  James  Weed, 
a  Revolutionary  War  officer  who  had  settled  there  a  few  years  before,  and  whose  youngest 
daughter  was  destined  to  become  Abraham  Ogden's  wife. 

"Abraham  and  Isaac  divided  their  land  between  them,  Isaac  taking  the  lower  half. 
As  an  evidence  of  the  industry  displayed  by  them  it  may  be  stated  that  within  three  years 
after  their  arrival  they  had  built  them  each  a  house,  and  had  a  saw-mill  in  operation,  with  a 
carding  machine  at  work  in  the  upper  story.  Soon  after  this  they  added  a  fulling  mill,  and 
were  manufacturing  woolen  goods  suitable  for  the  demands  of  the  times. 

"During  the  administration  of  President  Monroe,  the  state  of  New  York,  in  order  to 
encourage  the  manufacture  of  woolen  goods,  offered  a  silver  tea  set  as  a  prize  for  the  best 
woolen  goods  made  in  the  state.  This  prize  was  awarded  Abraham  Ogden,  and  is  still  in 
possession  of  his  descendants.  In  design  it  was  emblematic  of  the  woolen  industry,  and  is 
shown  in  the  accompanying  illustration. 

"The  land  comprising  the  Walton  tract  was  covered  with  a  growth  of  immense  pine 
trees,  and  these  had  only  to  be  cut  and  rafted  down  the  Delaware  to  Philadelphia  to  find 


*>efoentl)  (feneration 


a  ready  market  at  a  profitable  price.  The  winters  were  spent  in  felling  these  trees  and  getting 
them  to  the  river  bank,  where  they  were  made  into  rafts  and  floated  down  the  river  by  the 
aid  of  the  spring  freshets.  A  portion  of  the  original  Ogden  tract  is  still  called  the  'Mast 
lot, '  from  the  great  number  of  masts  and  spars  that  were  cut  from  it  and  sold  to  agents  of 
the  Government  at  S 50  a  piece.  So  valuable  did  this  lot  become  that  others  laid  claim  to  it 
through  an  alleged  flaw  in  the  survey;  but  after  being  tried  out  in  the  courts  the  Ogdens 
were  sustained  in  its  ownership,  and  afterwards  sold  it  for  Si 8,000. 

"Abraham  Ogdens7s  was  an  excellent  business  manager  and  his  affairs  were  greatly 
prospered.  His  dealings  in  lumber  and  wool  became  extensive  and  often  made  visits  to 
New  York  and  Philadelphia  necessary. 

"At  the  age  of  31  he  found  himself  in  circumstances  that  warranted  his  taking  a  life 
partner,  and  on  the  2d  day  of  February,  1802,  he  married  Abigail  Weed,  the  youngest 
child  of  Lieut.  James  Weed  and  Sarah  Richards,  his  wife.  The  marriage  took  place  at  the 
home  of  the  bride,  Rev.  David  Harrower,  the  first  settled  minister  at  Walton,  performing 
the  ceremony. 

"Mrs.  Ogden  was  born  in  New  Canaan,  Conn.,  Sept.  30,  1788,  and,  like  her  husband, 
was  of  Revolutionary  stock.  Her  father,  Lieut.  James  Weed,  was  also  born  at  New  Canaan, 
and  when  a  boy  of  14  enlisted  in  the  French  and  Indian  War.  After  the  war  he  returned  to 
New  Canaan,  and  about  1764  married  Sarah,  daughter  of  James  Richards.  When  the  War 
of  the  Revolution  broke  out  he  enlisted  in  Capt.  Hoyt's  Company,  and  served  under  different 
commanders  until  peace  was  declared,  rising  to  the  rank  of  Lieutenant. 

"After  the  war  several  families  left  New  Canaan  and  settled  on  the  west  branch  of  the 
Delaware  river  in  New  York,  and  in  the  spring  of  1791  Lieut.  Weed  joined  them,  locating 
himself  a  few  miles  above  the  present  village  of  Walton.  He  spent  the  summer  in  clearing 
land  and  in  building  him  a  log  house,  returning  to  New  Canaan  in  the  fall  for  his  family. 
Only  tradition  is  left  to  tell  of  their  journey  to  the  new  house,  and  that  only  says  they  came 
by  way  of  Kingston,  crossing  the  mountains  on  pack  horses.  This  brief  mention  gives 
slight  token  of  the  hardships  endured,  or  the  difficulties  overcome  on  such  a  journey,  and 
by  such  means  of  conveyance,  of  a  large  family,  some  of  them  young  children,  and  with 
such  household  belongings  as  are  indispensable  even  in  a  new  country.  But  they  arrived 
safely,  on  the  evening  of  Nov.  3d,  and  doubtless  found  a  warm  welcome  awaiting  them  from 
old  acquaintances  and  neighbors  from  the  old  home  they  had  exchanged  for  the  new.  The 
bridge  across  the  Delaware  near  their  home  was  called  'Weed's  Bridge, '  and  the  settlement 
that  sprang  up  around  them  has  since  been  known  by  that  name. 

"Abraham  Ogden  and  his  young  wife  began  housekeeping  in  a  plank  house  that  he  had 
built  near  the  saw-mill,  and  just  below  Weed's  Bridge.  In  this  house  their  four  oldest  children 
were  born.  In  the  meantime  another  and  a  better  house  had  been  builded  and  into  this 
they  moved  Oct.  14,  1809.  Here  until  1820  they  lived  happy  contented  lives.  The  work 
was  hard,  and  there  was  plenty  of  it,  but  they  could  foresee  fortunes  which  hard  work  could 
not  fail  to  give  into  their  possession. 

"As  early  as  1791  these  busy  people  had  found  time  to  build  a  log  house,  for  a  school 
house  during  the  week,  and  a  church  on  Sundays.  In  1802  a  library  was  established  which 
was  added  to  from  time  to  time  until  in  1809  it  was  incorporated  as  the  'Walton  Library' 
by  act  of  the  Legislature. 

"In  1820,  in  the  midst  of  his  usefulness,  Mr.  Ogden  was  stricken  with  paralysis,  and 
from  that  time  until  his  death,  on  Aug.  10,  1825,  he  was  entirely  helpless.  His  mental  facul- 
ties however  remained  unimpaired,  and  with  the  assistance  of  his  son,  William  Butler  Ogden, 
then  a  lad  of  15,  he  was  able  to  direct  from  his  bedside  a  successful  termination  of  his  business 
affairs.  He  was  buried  in  the  burying  ground  near  the  log  church  he  had  helped  to  build, 
and  where  many  of  his  neighbors  were  already  resting  from  their  labors.

"Mrs.  Ogden  survived  her  husband  some  twenty  years.  When  her  son  William  B. 
settled  in  Chicago  she  made  his  house  her  home,  where  she  died  Oct.  9,  1850.  Her  remains 
were  brought  to  Walton  and  buried  in  the  new  cemetery  in  the  southeast  part  of  the  village, 
and  those  of  her  husband  were  removed  from  the  old  burying  ground  and  placed  by  her 
side."  

The  Butler  family,  here  connected  with  the  Ogden  family,  was  first  represented  in 
America  by  Jonathan  Butler3,  an  Irish  gentleman,  who  settled  in  Saybrook,  Conn.,  in 
1724.  He  married,  Dec.  8,  1726,  Temperance  Buckingham,  daughter  of  Daniel  Bucking- 
ham, and  Sarah  Lee,  his  wife.  Their  children  were  Jonathan1',  Elnathanc,  Stephen"1,

(probably  not  named  in  order  of  birth). 

Ezekiel  BuTLERe,  the  fourth  named,  married  Mabel  Jones  of  Saybrook,  Conn.  She 
is  said  to  have  been  a  lineal  descendant  of  Col.  John  Jones  (one  of  the  Regicides)  and  his 
wife  Henrietta,  sister  of  Oliver  Cromwell.  Ezekiel  Butler6  and  Mabel,  his  wife,  had

early   career. 

William  B.  Ogdeni578  was  a  specimen  of  robust  boyhood,  athletic,  and  fond  of  all  boyish 
sports.  He  was  especially  fond  of  deer-hunting  among  his  native  hills  in  Delaware  county, 
New  York,  and  was  remarkably  accurate  as  a  rifle  shot.  He  developed  into  splendid  physical 
manhood,  being  a  little  above  medium  height,  and  possessing  large  dark  gray  eyes,  broad 
forehead,  a  ruddy  complexion,  a  clear,  musical  voice,  all  tending  to  give  him  a  manly  and 
imposing  presence. 

He  determined  quite  early  in  life  to  acquire  a  liberal  education,  and  devote  himself  to 
the  practice  of  law.  He  had  hardly  commenced  his  academic  course,  at  the  early  age  of 
fifteen,  when  his  father's  sudden  prostration  of  health  required  him  to  return  home  to 
assume  the  management  of  his  father's  business,  and  the  care  of  the  family.    Although  the 


^ctocntl)  Generation 


business  so  heroically  assumed  required  great  attention,  and  carried  him  to  many  cities, 
he  found  opportunity  to  cultivate  his  mind  by  reading,  and  gained  much  practical  knowl- 
edge by  wide  observation  during  his  travels. 

Meanwhile,  at  the  age  of  eighteen  years,  he  entered  the  military  service  of  his  native 
state,  and  was  elected  a  commissioned  officer  the  first  day  of  duty;  on  the  second  day  he 
was  appointed  Aid  to  his  esteemed  friend,  Brig.  Gen.  Frederic  P.  Foote.  The  Hon.  Selah 
R.  Hobbie,  for  many  years  the  distinguished  Ass't  Postmaster  General  of  the  United  States, 
was  a  member  of  Gen.  Foote's  staff  at  the  same  time,  and  had  been  an  intimate  friend  of 
Mr.  Ogden  from  boyhood.  Upon  the  retirement  of  Major  Hobbie  as  Brigade  Inspector,  Mr. 
Ogden  was  appointed  to  the  position,  and  served  for  several  years.  During  Gen.  Jackson's 
presidency,  Mr.  Ogden  was  made  postmaster  of  his  village,  Walton,  and  so  remained  until 
his  removal  to  Chicago. 

CHICAGO    LIFE. 

At  the  age  of  twenty-one  he  became  a  partner  in  a  mercantile  firm  that  was  moderately 
successful,  but  the  play  of  his  unusual  powers  naturally  demanded  a  larger  sphere  of  activity. 
He  remained  a  few  more  years  in  his  native  county,  when  his  attention  was  called  to  the 
possibilities  of  Chicago  by  his  brother-in-law  Charles  Butler,  Esq.,  and  he  determined  upon 
a  trip  west.  He  reached  Chicago  in  June,  1835,  when  the  site  of  the  future  great  metropolis 
was  marked  by  little  more  than  Fort  Dearborn  and  a  few  huts,  and  when  there  were  few 
more  than  5000  persons  between  Lake  Michigan  and  the  Pacific.  Mr.  Ogden*  lived  to  see  the 
population  increased  2000  fold.  His  remarkable  foresight  convinced  him  that  this  terminus 
of  Western  lake  navigation  would  become  the  centre  of  a  vast  empire  of  commercial  life. 
He  at  once  united  with  friends  in  the  purchase  of  extensive  real  estate  and  established  a 
land  and  trust  agency  known  as  the  "American  Land  Co."  The  concern  grew  into  one  of 
the  greatest  institutions  of  the  West.  His  first  real  estate  ventures  in  1835-6  were  eminently 
successful,  but  he  became  financially  embarrassed  in  1837-8  by  assuming  liabilities  for  his 
friends  whom  he  had  endeavored  to  aid.  He  struggled  with  these  embarrassments  till 
1S42-3,  when  he  fully  cleared  himself  of  the  entanglements. 

VAST    ENTERPRISES. 

His  real  estate  enterprises  were  immense.  His  sales  for  himself  and  others  exceeded 
many  millions  of  dollars,  requiring  many  thousands  of  deeds  and  contracts  signed  by  him. 
He  laid  out  and  constructed  over  one  hundred  miles  of  streets  at  his  own  expense  and  that 
of  his  clients,  and  built  two  bridges  over  the  Chicago  river.  He  constructed  the  first  floating 
swing-bridge  at  Chicago,  before  having  seen  one. 

Nearly  all  the  public  improvements  of  the  city  were  originated  by  him,  and  he  pro- 
jected and  built  thousands  of  miles  of  railways  passing  through,  or  centering  in  Chicago. 
In  this  vast  development,  he  was  actuated  as  much  by  an  abiding  faith  in  the  future  of  his 
country  as  by  consideration  of  return  of  the  invested  capital.  He  early  engaged  in  intro- 
ducing McCormick's  mowing  and  reaping  machines  in  the  West.  He  built  up  the  first  large 
manufactory  to  produce  them,  and  at  his  suggestion  the  first  reaper  was  sent  to  the  London 
Exhibition  of  1851. 

MAYOR    OF    CHICAGO. 

Mr.  Ogden  was  the  first  Mayor  of  Chicago,  and  while  an  incumbent  of  that  office,  an 
event  occurred,  the  outcome  of  which  made  one  of  the  brightest  pages  of  his  history.  Some 
frightened  debtors  had  been  led  by  scheming  demagogues  to  call  a  meeting  to  devise  meas- 
ures by  which  the  law  for  the  collection  of  debts  might  be  suspended.  Inflammatory  speeches 
had  been  made,  in  which  the  debtors'  sufferings  and  pecuniary  dangers  had  been  described. 
The  Mayor  was  called  upon,  when,  in  a  masterly  address  in  which  he  displayed  wonderful 
tact  and  persuasiveness,  he  exhorted  his  fellow  citizens  not  to  commit  the  folly  of  proclaim- 
ing their  own  dishonor.     He  entreated  the  embarrassed  to  courageously  bear  up  against 


203 


C^e  £>8Hcn  family 


adverse  circumstances,  remembering  that  no  misfortune  was  as  great  as  personal  dishonor. 
"Above  all  things,"  said  he,  "do  not  tarnish  the  honor  of  our  infant  city."  His  pleadings 
prevailed.  He  always  personally  exemplified  the  American  spirit  of  hopefulness  and  self- 
help.  Pride  of  citizenship  impelled  him  to  ever  come  forward  in  times  of  emergency,  when 
either  his  city  or  country  needed  mature  judgment,  and  energetic,  intelligent  action.  It 
was  ever  his  aim  to  maintain  public  faith  and  credit. 

RAILWAY    SCHEMES. 

His  fertility  of  resources,  and  unbounded  enthusiasm  that  led  him  to  open  up  to  com- 
merce and  agriculture  the  great  Northwest,  and  to  establish  facilities  for  the  immense  ship- 
ping trade  of  the  great  lakes,  naturally  made  him  a  leading  railroad  promoter  and  magnate. 
The  scope  of  his  railway  schemes  was  truly  marvelous.  "His  acts  are  written  in  lines  of 
iron  all  over  the  West. "  While  he  directly  labored  to  connect  the  richest  and  most  promis- 
ing sections  of  the  great  Northwest  with  Chicago  by  many  railway  routes,  he  planned  a 
direct  and  continuous  line  from  New  York  to  Chicago,  and  thence  westward  to  the  Pacific 
He  was  President  of  the  Galena  &  Chicago  Union  R.  R.  Co.,  President  of  the  Northwestern 
R.  R.  Co.,  President  of  the  Illinois  &  Wisconsin  R.  R.  Co.,  President  of  the  Buffalo  &  Missis- 
sippi R.  R.  Co.  in  Indiana,  until  merged  in  the  Michigan  Central;  President  of  the  Chicago 
St.  Paul  &  Fond-du-Lac  R.  R.  Co.,  the  road  of  the  latter  company  being  constructed  largely 
from  his  own  means.  He  was  also  President  of  the  Wisconsin  &  Superior  Land  Grant  R.  R 
Co.  He  served  as  president  of  the  great  National  Railroad  Convention  held  at  Philadel 
phia  in  1850,  whose  work  was  to  take  measures  for  the  construction  of  the  Pacific  Rail- 
road. He  was  first  President  of  the  Union  Pacific  R.  R.  and  held  the  position  until  the 
demands  of  his  other  vast  business  enterprises  compelled  him  to  retire  as  the  executive 
head.  He  was  a  Director  and  afterward  Receiver  of  the  Pittsburg,  Ft.  Wayne  &  Chicago 
R.  R.,  but  generously  refused  the  offered  $25,000  salary,  saying  the  road  needed  all  avail- 
able money.  The  construction  of  most  of  the  foregoing  railroads  was  accomplished  only 
after  the  most  energetic  and  indefatigable  exertions  that  would  have  disheartened  most 
men.  He  labored  more  as  a  pioneer,  and  his  services  were  to  a  great  extent  gratuitous  and 
unselfish.  When  he  retired  from  the  Presidency  of  one  of  the  greatest  railroad  corporations 
of  the  world,  the  Northwestern  Railroad,  in  June,  1868,  having  been  connected  with  the 
road  since  1847,  the  stockholders  unanimously  adopted  the  following  resolution: 

"Resolved,  That  his  [W.  B.  Ogden's]  connection  with  this  Company,  dating  back 

for  a  period  of  twenty-one  years,  his  disinterested  labors  in  its  behalf  without  fee  or 

reward  during  the  whole  time,  the  benefit  he  has  conferred  upon  it  and  the  country, 

demand  our  grateful  acknowledgments,  and  we  hereby  tender  him  our  warmest  thanks 

for  his  long  services  and  our  best  wishes  for  his  long-continued  health  and  prosperity." 

As  to  official  position,  Mr.  Ogden  was  also  the  first  President  of  Rush  Medical  College, 

President  of  the  Chicago  Branch  of  the  State  Bank  of  Illinois,  President  of  the  Board  of 

Sewerage  Commissioners  of  Chicago,  and  President  of  the  Sturgeon  Bay  &  Lake  Michigan 

Canal  &  Harbor  Co. 

EDUCATION. 

Bishop  Clarkson,  an  intimate  friend  of  Mr.  Ogden,  gives  the  following  concerning  his 
education:  "Mr.  Ogden,  although  not  a  scholar  himself,  was  yet  the  liberal  patron  of  learn- 
ing, and  of  art,  and  the  cherished  guest  and  companion  of  scholars,  of  men  of  learning.  His 
wonderful  conversational  powers,  and  his  amazing  capacity  of  gathering  and  assimilating 
knowledge  and  information  on  all  subjects,  made  him  'the  peer,  if  not  the  prince,'  of  the 
most  cultured  companies.  He  had  an  enthusiastic  love  of  whatsoever  was  beautiful  in  nature, 
and  true  and  real  in  man.  Meanness  instinctively  shrank  away  from  his  presence,  and  false- 
hood and  dishonesty  cowered  before  his  glance." 

204 


^?cbcntl)  feneration 


His  intellectual  and  ethical  tastes  are  thus  spoken  of  by  the  Hon.  Isaac  X.  Arnold  of 
Chicago:  "He  was  a  lover  of  music  and  painting  and  poetry.  Indeed,  he  possessed  a  sensi- 
bility to  beauty  in  every  form,  and  to  the  expression  of  noble  sentiment  in  the  arts  and  in 
literature,  very  rare  in  a  man  so  absorbed  in  business  and  in  great  enterprises.  He  was 
never  more  attractive  than  in  his  library  reciting  the  poetry  of  Bryant,  Halleck,  Holmes, 
Burns,  Moore,  and  Scott;  or  at  his  piano,  playing  an  accompaniment  to  his  own  voice  as  he 
sang  with  expression,  if  not  with  artistic  skill,  the  simple  ballads  of  Burns  and  Moore,  and 
other  songs  popular  thirty  years  ago.  .  .  .  His  was  one  of  those  sympathetic  natures 
that  brought  gladness  into  every  circle  he  entered.  His  smile  was  like  the  sunshine  to  the 
landscape.  He  developed  and  brought  into  action  whatever  was  good  in  those  with  whom 
he  associated.      .      .  His  nature  was  an  inspiration  and  a  stimulant.     .     .     .     No  one 

entered  his  presence  who  was  not  made  happier,  and  made  to  think  better  of  themselves, 
and  of  others,  of  life  and  humanity." 

HIS    POWERS    OF    ORATORY. 

Much  has  been  said  of  Mr.  Ogden's  unusual  powers  of  expression,  both  in  ordinary 
conversation,  and  when  before  an  audience.  Mr.  Arnold  relates  the  following  interesting 
occurrence  of  July  23,  1839,  which  demonstrates  his  happy  choice  of  language,  striking 
metaphors,  and  eloquent  delivery.  A  large  and  magnificent  steamer,  the  "Illinois,"  lay  at 
the  wharf  of  Xewberry  &  Dole,  and  the  people  of  Chicago,  scarcely  4000  in  number,  who 
had  purchased  a  suit  of  colors  worthy  the  splendid  boat,  were  gathered  en  masse  at  the 
harbor  to  present  the  same  to  Capt.  Blake,  her  commander,  and  to  Oliver  Newberry,  her 
owner.  At  that  time  Chicago  had  no  completed  railway  line  to  the  Atlantic,  and  was  con- 
nected socially  and  commercially  only  by  steamboats.  It  was  a  balmy  summer  afternoon, 
and  Fort  Dearborn,  directly  opposite,  and  all  the  shipping  in  the  river  were  gayly  decorated 
with  the  national  colors.    Wm.  B.  Ogden  had  been  selected  to  make  the  presentation  speech. 

Mr.  Arnold  thus  describes  the  occasion:  "Mr.  Ogden  was  a  natural  orator,  and  his 
manly  voice,  on  this  occasion,  could  be  distinctly  heard  by  the  crowd  on  the  wharf  as  well 
as  on  the  deck  of  the  steamer.  After  complimenting  the  'splendid  specimen  of  naval  archi- 
tecture' on  which  he  stood,  and  expressing  his  pleasure  in  being  the  organ  of  presenting  the 
'appropriate  gift'  to  the  steamer  bearing  the  name  of  our  State,  he  spoke  of  the  wonder- 
fully rapid  advance  of  our  country,  and  the  means  of  communication,  bringing  the  East 
and  the  West,  the  Hudson  and  the  Great  Lakes,  and  the  Mississippi  into  convenient  neigh- 
borhood. I  remember  a  bold  and  striking  figure  in  which  he  compared  the  'prairie  fires,' 
which  at  that  time  annually  were  seen  to  invade  our  wide,  and  then  unsettled,  city  limits, 
to  the  'pillar  of  fire  by  night,'  lighting  the  'path  of  Empire  on  its  westward  way.'  He  then 
paid  a  glowing  tribute  to  the  memory  of  Robert  Fulton,  but  for  whose  genius,  he  said,  'the 
lake  and  the  prairie  around  us  would  have  still  remained  in  the  wild  solitude  of  nature.' 
There  would  have  been,  but  for  Fulton,  no  steamer  '  Illinois, '  no  Chicago,  and  the  broad  and 
beautiful  prairies  around  us  would  have  continued  long  'to  waste  their  sweetness  on  the 
desert  air. '  Turning  to  Capt.  Blake,  and  unfurling  a  splendid  silk  banner,  fit  for  an  admiral, 
Maj.  Gen.  Scott  standing  at  his  side,  he  said:  'We  present  to  you  our  country's  flag. 
To  you  it  is  no  stranger;  under  a  most  valiant  chief  (bowing  to  Gen.  Scott),  whom  a  grateful 
people  have  not  forgotten  to  praise,  bravely  and  honorably  have  you  defended  it  in 
war.  .  .  .  Stand  by  it  in  peace — stand  by  it  forever.'  In  conclusion,  he  said:  'For 
this  noble  craft,  we  would  ask  of  Him  who  rules  the  raging  storm  and  bids  the  rising 
waves  be  still,  to  save  her  from  storm  and  tempest,  from  rocks  and  shoals,  and  bring  her 
in  safety  to  her  destined  haven.  .  .  .  Oft  shall  she  bring  to  us,  as  she  cuts  through 
the  swelling  waves,  many  that  we  love,  and  when,  with  eager  haste,  it  shall  be  our 
privilege  to  return  once  more  to  scenes  of  childhood's  happy  hours;  once  more  to  seek 
a  parent's  blessing,  a  sister's,  brother's  fond  embrace;  once  more  to  view  our  native  hills, 
205

and  valleys,  and  streams;  where,  when  a  child,  we  gambolled  wild  and  free,  through  every 
wooded  glen;  safely,  swiftly,  will  she  bear  us,  until  we  greet  again  our  Fatherland.' 

"Walter  L.  Newberry,  on  behalf  of  his  brother,  Oliver  Newberry,  replied,  and  then, 
with  Gen.  Scott  and  a  gay  and  merry  party,  she  steamed  north  to  Gross-Point,  near  where 
now  is  Evanston,  thence  down  to  the  Calumet,  and  returned  to  her  dock." 

IN    EUROPE. 

In  1854-5  Mr.  Ogden  visited  Europe  and  remained  abroad  about  one  and  a  half  years. 
Being  a  careful  and  accurate  observer,  he  gave  much  attention  to  various  institutions  and 
great  public  works.  The  canals  of  Holland,  especially  the  great  ship  canal  at  Amsterdam, 
suggested  to  his  practical  mind  the  importance  of  a  ship  channel  by  which  the  waters  of 
Lake  Michigan  might  flow  through  the  Chicago  and  Des  Plains  rivers  into  the  Illinois  and 
Mississippi  rivers,  thus  affording  free  and  direct  steamboat  navigation  to  and  from  Chicago. 
He  later  was  a  leading  contractor  on  the  Illinois-and-Michigan  Canal,  and  one  of  its  ablest 
advocates. 

HOME    LIFE. 

While  in  Europe,  Mr.  Ogden  gave  much  attention  to  art,  and  purchased  a  number  of 
rare  pictures  and  articles  of  virtu,  many  being  the  product  of  American  artists  working 
abroad,  with  which  he  adorned  his  mansion  at  Chicago.  He  built  the  latter  in  1837,  having 
chosen  a  lot  in  North  Chicago,  and  where  his  delightful  home  was  surrounded  by  native 
forest  trees  and  shrubbery.  Although  at  this  time  unmarried,  he  early  brought  to  his  home 
his  mother  and  his  sisters,  and  he  welcomed  his  many  friends  to  a  most  cordial  and  generous 
hospitality.  The  most  intimate  of  the  latter  have  tenderly  drawn  a  veil  over  "a  parcel  of 
carefully-preserved,  but  long-ago-faded  flowers;  roses,  pansies,  some  old  garden  flowers, — 
a  ribbon,  a  glove, — some  notes,  and  a  little  poem,— all  tenderly-cherished  relics  of  one  from 
whom,  many  and  long  years  before,  he  had  been  separated  by  death,  and  around  whose 
grave,  amidst  all  the  active  and  absorbing  scenes,  in  which  he  was  still  living,  his  memory 
still  lingered  fondly  and  faithfully." 

It  was  one  of  his  sincerest  pleasures  to  welcome  to  his  home,  his  neighbors  and  fellow- 
citizens,  visitors  and  strangers.  There  was  no  formality,  but  while  all  his  guests  were  made 
to  feel  perfectly  at  ease,  there  was  always  a  high-bred  courtesy  manifested  and  a  solicitous 
consideration  for  others.  It  was  Mr.  Ogden's  thought  to  gather  to  his  fireside  all  the  most 
worthy  and  distinguished  of  American  social  life,  no  matter  how  poor  or  humble.  If  dis- 
tinguished for  merit,  culture,  or  ability,  they  were  most  cordially  received.  "Here  he  enter- 
tained Van  Buren,  Webster,  Poinsett,  Marcy,  Flagg,  Butler,  Gilpin,  Corning,  Croswell, 
Tilden,  as  well  as  Bryant,  Miss  Martineau,  Fredrika  Bremer,  Margaret  Fuller,  the  artist 
Healy,  Anne  C.  Lynch,  and  many  others,  comprising  some  of  the  best  representative  men 
and  women  of  our  own  country,  and  the  most  distinguished  visitors  from  abroad.  The 
guest  always  found  good  books,  good  pictures,  good  music,  and  the  most  kind  and  genial 
reception.  Mr.  Ogden  himself,  however,  was  always  the  chief  attraction;  he  was  in  his 
way  without  an  equal  as  a  conversationalist.  His  powers  of  narration  and  description  were 
unrivalled." 

FINANCIAL    CRISIS    OF    1857. 

While  pushing  the  building  of  the  Chicago,  St.  Paul  &  Fond-du-Lac  Railroad  which 
was  carrying  a  large  floating  debt,  and  pending  a  sale  of  his  mortgage  bonds,  negotiations 
abroad  suddenly  failed,  the  paper  of  the  company  went  to  protest,  and  Mr.  Ogden,  who  had 
been  an  endorser  to  the  extent  of  nearly  $1,500,000,  found  himself  in  close  quarters.  It 
was  a  time  of  general  financial  depression,  and  many  strong  commercial  houses  went  to  the 
wall.  However,  he  cheerfully  and  promptly  undertook  the  herculean  task  of  paying  the 
large  sum,  aided  by  the  advice  and  confidence  of  such  friends  as  William  A.  Booth,  Pres. 
American  Exchange  Bank,  Caleb  O.  Halsted,  Pres.  Manhattan  Co.,  and  his  counsellor,  Hon.

etoentl)  feneration 


Samuel  J.  Tilden  of  New  York.  The  creditors  of  the  road  allowed  Mr.  Ogden  to  continue 
in  control,  and  to  use  his  own  judgment,  and  through  the  assets  of  the  company  and  the 
free  use  of  his  private  estate,  soon  retired  all  the  paper  of  the  company  upon  which  he  had 
been  endorser. 

A  debt  is  owed  our  common  humanity  by  the  recital  of  an  incident  connected  with  Mk. 
Ogden's  financial  straits,  and  which  tends  to  show  the  unbounded  confidence  and  high  esteem 
with  which  he  was  held  by  his  many  friends.  The  financial  house  of  which  Mr.  Ocden  was 
the  head  at  Chicago  had  been  for  many  years  the  agent  of  Samuel  Russell  of  Middletown, 
Ct.,  a  wealthy,  retired  merchant,  and  founder  of  the  house  of  Russell  &  Co.,  of  Canton(China). 
Upon  learning  of  his  friend's  embarrassment,  Mr.  Russell  immediately  placed  his  entire 
estate  at  his  disposal,  amounting  to  nearly  a  half  million  of  dollars.  Robert  Eaton,  an 
English  gentleman  of  wealth  and  culture  residing  at  Swansea,  Wales,  sent  SSo.ooo  to  Mr. 
Ogden,  to  be  used  at  his  own  discretion.  Matthew  Laflin,  of  Chicago,  wrote  from  Saratoga 
offering  $100,000  from  himself  and  friends,  and  Col.  E.  D.  Taylor,  long  of  Chicago,  repeat- 
edly tendered  like  substantial  aid.  Although  Mr.  Ogden  did  not  avail  himself  of  these  most 
generous  offers,  they  must  have  afforded  him  great  comfort  and  satisfaction  in  his  trying 
position. 

HIS    POWER    OVER    MEN. 

While  building  one  of  his  Wisconsin  railroads,  the  farmers  and  villagers  along  the  route 
were  induced  to  make  large  stock-subscriptions,  having  been  persuaded  to  do  so  by  the 
promise  of  large  returns  from  the  development  of  the  territory  traversed  by  the  road.  Hard 
times  came,  and  while  the  subscriptions  had  been  paid,  the  road  was  not  completed,  and  the 
people  became  exasperated,  because  they  believed  they  had  been  swindled.  They  publicly 
declared  that  if  the  author  of  their  misfortunes  should  come  over  the  track  of  the  luckless 
road,  he  would  be  tried  without  judge  or  jury,  tarred  and  feathered — imprisoned — shot. 
Mr.  Ogden  learned  of  their  threats,  and,  despite  the  pleadings  of  his  friends,  had  handbills 
distributed  through  the  towns  along  the  line  announcing  his  coming,  and  that  he  would 
publicly  address  the  people.  Believing  themselves  wronged,  they  prepared  for  a  scene  of 
violence.  As  Mr.  Ogden  presented  himself,  he  was  greeted  with  hisses  and  groans. 
Although  alone  and  unarmed,  he  calmly  faced  his  accusers  and  appealed  to  their  sense 
of  justice  and  fair  play.  He  proceeded  in  his  captivating  manner  to  give  the  exact 
status  of  the  situation,  clearly  explaining  the  cause  of  the  railroad's  incomplete  condition, 
and  how,  because  of  the  stringent  times,  he  had  personally  lost  more  than  all  of  them 
combined,  and  that  with  patient  waiting  and  judicious  adjustment  of  the  affairs  of  the 
road,  the  tide  would  surely  turn  in  their  favor.  His  clear  statement  of  facts,  with  his 
old-time  oratorical  ability,  brought  the  enraged  populace  to  their  senses;  and  instead  of 
lynching  him,  they  appointed  a  committee  to  wait  upon  him,  which  said:  "Mr.  Ogden,  we 
are  authorized  by  the  farmers,  and  other  stockholders  along  the  road,  to  say,  if  you  wish 
it,  we  will  double  our  subscriptions." 

the   peshtigo  lumber  enterprise. 

In  1856,  Mr.  Ogden  organized  a  lumber  company  for  operations  along  the  Peshtigo 
river  in  Northern  Wisconsin.  The  company  bought  nearly  100,000  acres  of  pine  lands, 
on  which  they  constructed  extensive  saw-mills,  and  founded  a  thriving  village.  They  con- 
structed a  harbor  on  Green  Bay  at  the  mouth  of  the  Peshtigo,  and  in  a  short  time  were 
prepared  to  ship  50,000,000  feet  of  lumber  per  annum  to  the  Chicago  market. 

In  i860,  he  purchased  at  Brady's  Bend,  on  the  Alleghany  river,  in  Pennsylvania,  an 
estate  of  5000  acres  on  which  were  extensive  mines  of  iron  and  coal,  rolling  mills  and  furnaces, 
and  a  village  of  about  5000  population.  Joined  by  friends,  he  organized  the  Brady's  Bend 
Iron  Co.,  capitalized  at  $2,000,000,  employing  some  600  men,  making  200  tons  of  rails 
daily.

VILLA     BOSCOBEL. 

Mr.  Ogden's  business  interests  causing  him  to  spend  so  much  time  in  New  York,  he 
determined  upon  possessing  an  eastern  residence.  This  was  consummated  in  the  spring 
of  1866,  when  he  purchased  of  J.  Kennedy  Smyth^s*  a  handsome  Gothic  villa  called 
"Boscobel"  at  Fordham  Heights,  Westchester  Co.,  N.  Y.,  and  adjoining  High  Bridge. 
He  made  some  additions,  and  extended  the  grounds  until  they  contained  10  acres, 
with  a  frontage  of  a  half  mile  on  the  Harlem  River.  The  grounds  were  tastefully  laid  out, 
having  a  conservatory,  stables,  green-houses,  and  everything  that  abundant  means  could 
suggest  and  provide  for.  The  many  gabled  house  is  of  blue-stone,  with  Ohio  freestone  trim- 
mings, and  surrounded  by  broad  verandas,  from  which  well-shaven  lawns  slope  down  the 
hill.  He  also  enlarged  and  beautified  his  homestead  at  Chicago  and  divided  his  time  between 
the  two  establishments,  but  becoming  weary  of  business,  he  retired  to  "Boscobel"  to  spend 
the  remaining  years  of  his  life,  and  enjoy  a  well-earned  repose. 

COMMERCIAL    FORESIGHT. 

The  advanced  ideas  entertained  by  Mr.  Ogden  are  shown  by  the  fact  that,  at  this 
early  day,  he  had  plans  prepared  for  a  subway  under  Broadway,  New  York  City,  which 
plans  are  yet  in  possession  of  the  family.  They  contemplated  a  double-track  railway,  with 
a  roadway  on  either  side  for  trucks  and  heavy  traffic.  He  was  also  deeply  interested  in  the 
Panama  Canal  project,  and  took  steps  toward  the  formation  of  a  syndicate  to  undertake  its 
building;  his  prophetic  vision  foreseeing  the  time  when  both  these  undertakings  would 
become  a  necessity. 

DISASTERS    OF    1871. 

He  was  still  interested  in  many  vast  enterprises  in  the  Northwest,  but  had  entrusted 
their  management  to  other  hands.  But  his  release  from  active  business  affairs  did  not  last 
long.  On  Oct.  8,  1871,  the  wires  flashed  the  news  to  him  at  "Boscobel,  "  "Chicago  is  burn- 
ing!" He  hastened  West  to  survey  the  appalling  work  of  the  flames  that  had  so  nearly 
destroyed  the  city,  and  rendered  homeless  100,000  of  its  population.  He  arrived  Oct.  10, 
only  to  view  the  smoking  ruins  of  vast  business  and  residence  blocks,  the  many  public 
buildings,  City  Hall,  churches,  banks,  hotels,  stores,  warehouses,  homes, — all  in  utter  ruin. 
His  own  luxurious  home,  with  its  gathered  treasures  of  a  lifetime,  was  totally  destroyed. 
The  labors  of  forty  years  lay  in  ashes,  but  Mr.  Ogden  met  the  great  calamity  with  heroic 
fortitude,  and  plans  were  soon  on  foot  to  rebuild  the  Ogden  Building,  the  Lumber  Ex- 
change, and  many  other  institutions  with  which  he  was  directly  connected. 

The  next  day  he  received  the  intelligence  of  the  utter  destruction,  also  by  fire,  of  his 
immense  lumber  establishment  at  Peshtigo,  Wis.  He  tarried  at  Chicago  only  long  enough 
to  inspire  hope  and  courage  in  the  stricken  and  disheartened  people,  and  hastened  on  to 
Peshtigo,  where  his  great  soul  was  more  needed  by  the  despairing  survivors.  Gen.  Strong 
accompanied  him.  From  an  eminence  they  overlooked  the  thousands  of  acres  of  burnt 
forest  lands.  All  was  gone.  The  thriving  village  of  Peshtigo,  with  its  factories,  mills,  shops, 
stores,  churches,  boarding-houses,  hotels,  dwellings,  warehouses,  bridges,  had  been  leveled 
by  the  flames  within  a  few  hours.  Many  horses  and  mules  and  other  domestic  animals 
were  burned,  but  the  more  shocking  was  the  loss  of  the  lives  of  3 1 5  men,  women  and  children 
who  perished  in  the  fire.  In  the  face  of  these  terrible  calamities  that  would  have  utterly 
crushed  and  disheartened  most  men,- — the  two  fires  having  entailed  a  financial  loss  alone  to 
Mr.  Ogden  of  over  $2,000,000, — he  was  calm  and  neither  murmured  nor  complained.  "It 
is  the  act  of  God,"  said  he;  "we  are  not  responsible.  We  will  rebuild  this  village — the 
mills,  the  shops — and  do  a  larger  winter's  logging  than  ever  before." 

He  at  once  applied  his  old-time  energy,  and  superintended  the  reconstruction,  remain- 
ing until  December,  and  worked  with  the  men  day  after  day  from  dawn  till  dark,  constantly 
exposed  to  the  inclement  weather.  Mr.  Arnold  says:  "When  night  came,  he  would  go  on 
208

an  open  car,  drawn  by  mules,  eight  miles  to  the  harbor.  All  the  evening,  until  late  in  the 
night,  he  was  engaged  with  his  clerks  and  assistants,  in  drawing  plans,  writing  letters,  and 
sending  telegrams  to  his  agents,  and  the  next  morning,  break-of-day  would  rind  him  again 
at  the  head  of  his  men  at  Peshtigo.  During  all  this  period,  he  was  cheerful  and  pleasant, 
and  inspired  every  body  with  courage  and  faith  in  the  future.  This  terrible  strain  upon  him, 
and  overwork,  for  a  man  of  his  years,  probably  shortened  his  life."  He  rebuilt  the  mills, 
machine  shops,  and  dwelling-houses,  and  the  village  in  a  short  time  contained  about  2,000 
inhabitants.     Having  repaired  his  great  losses,  he  again  retired  to  "Boscobel." 


Mr.  Ogden  was  what  would  now  be  termed,  an  Independent  Democrat,  always  putting 
principle  before  party,  though  strongly  attached  to  the  principles  of  true  Democracy.  He 
came  prominently  into  public  life  in  1834,  being  elected  that  year  to  represent  his  native 
county  in  the  New  York  Legislature.  He  was  less  than  thirty  years  old,  but  was  elected 
to  the  Assembly  purposely  to  represent  the  interests  of  the  projected  New  York  &  Erie 
Railroad,  which  sought  state  aid.  On  Mar.  20,  21,  22,  1835,  he  made  a  remarkable  speech  in 
favor  of  the  road.  It  was  a  bold,  sagacious,  prophetic  speech,  that  revealed  the  wonderful 
foresight  and  ability  of  the  speaker.  He  at  that  time  outlined  the  probable  routes  of  the 
great  railway  lines  of  the  country  that  took  shape  at  a  later  day. 

While  in  the  N.  Y.  Assembly,  he  became  intimately  associated  with  such  prominent 
men  as  Martin  Van  Buren,  Silas  Wright,  Wm.  L.  Marcy,  Benj.  F.  Butler,  Azariah  C.  Flagg, 
Edwin  Croswell,  and  John  A.  Dix.  It  has  already  been  stated  that  Mr.  Charles  Butler,  a 
brother  of  Gen.  Benj.  F.  Butler,  Attorney  General  of  the  United  States  under  Jackson  and 
Van  Buren,  married  a  sister  of  Mr.  Ogden. 

He  was  never  an  office  seeker,  and  several  times  opposed  candidates  of  his  own  political 
party  whom  he  considered  unfit  for  office.  During  his  Chicago  life  he  was  often  elected  to 
City  Councils,  but  public  office  having  no  charms  for  him,  he  accepted  only  that  he  might 
subserve  the  best  interests  of  his  city  or  country.  In  1852  he  declined  a  nomination  for 
Congress.  He  was  opposed  to  slavery,  and  during  the  Civil  War  acted  with  the  Repub- 
lican party.  He  enthusiastically  supported  Abraham  Lincoln,  and  was  elected  to  the 
Illinois  Legislature  on  the  same  ticket.  Feeling  it  a  time  of  great  emergency,  he  accepted 
a  seat  in  the  state  Legislature,  though  at  cost  to  him  of  great  self-denial.  In  the  same  year, 
i860,  the  expediency  and  propriety  of  nominating  him  for  the  Presidency  was  strongly 
urged,  because  of  being  foremost  and  immeasurably  ahead  of  all  other  men  in  maintaining 
public  credit,  and  advancing  public  improvements.  What  prompted  this  sentiment  was 
the  value  of  his  labors  made  manifest  by  his  public  works  all  through  the  Northwest. 

PHILANTHROPIES. 

Mr.  Ogden's  early  struggles,  and  the  acquiring  of  a  masterly  spirit  of  self-help,  made 
him  an  inspiration  to  others  who  often  sought  his  cheerfully  given  advice.  At  one  time, 
he  said  to  a  lady  who  had  been  reduced  from  affluence  to  poverty,  and  who  came  to  seek 
advice  for  the  training  of  her  inexperienced  children:  "Madam,  don't  have  the  least  con- 
cern. If  your  sons  are  healthy  and  willing  to  work,  they  will  find  enough  to  do,  and  if  they 
cannot  begin  at  the  top,  let  them  begin  at  the  bottom,  and  very  likely  they  will  be  all  the 
better  for  it.  I  was  born  close  by  a  saw-mill,  was  early  left  an  orphan,  christened  in  a 
mill-pond,  graduated  at  a  log  school-house,  and,  at  fourteen,  fancied  I  could  do  any  thing  I 
turned  my  hand  to,  and  that  nothing  was  impossible,  and  ever  since,  madam,  I  have  been 
trying  to  prove  it,  and  with  some  success." 

He  was  singularly  hospitable,  and  ever  manifested  a  kind  and  charitable  spirit.  Bishop 
Clarkson  adds:  "When  he  was  crowded  with  business  enough  to  weigh  down  half  a  dozen 
common  men,  and  when  people  were  waiting  to  confer  with  him  on  important  interests, 
[14]  209 


C^c  €>gticn  family 


I  have  known  him  to  leave  it  all,  in  order  to  carry  a  bunch  of  flowers  from  his  conservatory 
to  an  invalid  neighbor,  or  to  stop  at  the  door  of  a  friend  to  inquire  after  a  sick  child.  Men 
who  live  a  merely  selfish  life  never  do  such  things.  So  was  there  about  him  always  a  true 
considerateness  for  others,  a  toleration  for  their  opinions,  a  gentleness  to  forward  their 
weaknesses,  a  willingness  to  listen  to  their  grievances,  and  a  cheerfulness  that  made  them 
think  more  lightly  of  their  woes.  These  were  the  qualities  that  made  him  so  true  a  friend, 
and  so  valuable  a  neighbor 

"It  does  not  often  happen  that  a  man  passes  away  from  earth  who  at  one  time  or 
another,  or  in  one  way  or  another,  helped  or  inspired  or  benefited  as  many  struggling  and 
anxious  men  as  William  B.  Ogden  did.  And  this  is  one  of  life's  noblest  records.  In  times 
of  trouble  and  distress,  men  who  knew  him  instinctively  turned  to  him,  not  merely  because 
he  was  a  rich  man,  but  because  he  was  full  of  the  better  wealth  of  sympathy  and  hopeful- 
ness and  kindheartedness. 

"The  courtesy  that  was  inborn,  the  considerateness  for  others  that  was  uppermost  in 
his  nature,  the  sunny  cheerfulness  that  in  the  days  of  his  health  pervaded  the  icy  atmos- 
phere around  him,  the  outstretched  hand  for  the  distressed  and  the  unfortunate,  the  patient 
counsel  for  the  hundreds  who  naturally  came  to  him  in  their  perplexity — the  pleasant 
words  that  came  from  a  generous  heart  fell  with  such  soothing  power  on  broken  spirits. 
These  were  the  things  that  made  Mr.  Ogden  as  truly  a  benefactor  of  his  kind,  as  the  rail- 
roads he  projected,  in  the  cities  he  built,  or  the  material  developments  that  he  brought 
about.  His  benefactions,  private  and  public,  were  very  large;  no  one  really  knew  how 
much  he  gave.  During  his  thirty  years  residence  in  Chicago  there  was  scarcely  an  enter- 
prise, benevolent,  charitable,  or  literary,  that  did  not  number  him  among  its  most  liberal 
supporters.  His  name  is  associated  with  the  early  struggles  of  most  of  the  institutions  of 
the  city  that  have  now  become  strong  and  great,  and  always  as  a  generous  helper  as  well  as 
a  judicious  foundation-layer. " 

Among  the  institutions  of  the  Northwest  which  he  generously  aided  were — Rush 
Medical  College  (of  which  he  was  first  President),  the  Theological  Seminary  of  the  North- 
west, the  Historical  Society,  the  Academy  of  Sciences,  the  Astronomical  Society,  the  Uni- 
versity of  Chicago  (of  which  he  was  President  of  the  Board  of  Trustees),  and  the  Chicago 
Woman's  Home. 

RELIGION. 

Mr.  Ogden  was  reared  in  the  faith  of  the  Prot.  Episcopal  Church,  and  was  attached  to 
St.  James',  Chicago,  and  later  was  a  vestryman  of  St.  James',  Fordham,  N.  Y.  Bishop 
Clarkson  says:  "Mr.  Ogden  was  always  a  believer  in  Christianity,  theoretically,  and  a 
consistent  and  ceaseless  helper  in  its  work,  although  he  did  not  until  late  in  life  give  his 
personal  allegiance  to  its  divine  Founder,  or  appropriate  to  himself  its  precious  consolations. 
But  when  he  did  come  at  last  to  lay  his  soul  at  the  foot  of  the  cross  of  Christ,  it  was  with  all 
the  trustfulness  of  a  confident  faith,  and  with  all  the  humility  of  a  true  penitent. 

"During  all  the  years  of  his  connection  with  St.  James'  Church  he  responded  to  its 
many  calls  and  claims  with  unstinted  hand.  And  there  is  many  a  church  now  standing  in 
the  West  in  whose  walls  he  freely  invested,  and  many  a  poor  missionary  who  had  been 
made  more  comfortable  by  his  benefactions.  And  this  is  after  all  a  practical  Christianity  of 
more  worth  than  empty  pretensions  or  ostentatious  lip  service." 

He  was  not  only  ready  to  contribute  largely  to  every  missionary  enterprise,  but  to 
make  up  every  shortage  in  the  offerings  of  others.  He  was  in  failing  health  during  the  last 
year  of  his  life,  but  despite  much  suffering,  he  maintained  a  cheerfulness  and  manliness  ever 
characteristic  of  him. 

IN    MEMORIAM. 

In  a  work  entitled,  "Biographical  Sketches  of  the  Leading  Men  of  Chicago,"  published 
about  1867,  the  following  estimate  is  given  of  Mr.  Ogden  ten  years  before  his  death.     It  is 


^ctocntl)  eventration 


here  repeated  to  show  the  appreciation  of  his  life  and  efforts  while  living:  "William  B. 
Ogden  is  a  man  of  noble  mould.  We  claim  not  that  he  is  faultless,  or  free  from  the  imper- 
fections and  failings  of  our  common  humanity;  but  as  a  man,  a  brother,  a  citizen,  a  public- 
spirited,  a  charitable,  a  benevolent,  and  capable  man,  we  acknowledge  no  superior,  and  no 
name  in  the  Northwest  calls  up  so  many  acknowledgments  of  public  indebtedness  for  general 
benefits  resulting  from  individual  energy,  enterprise,  and  ability,  as  that  of  William  B. 
Ogden. 

"Former  generations  have  commemorated  the  deeds  of  the  worthy  in  monuments  of 
bronze  and  marble.  It  is  the  glory  of  the  nineteenth  century,  that  general  utility  and  the 
elevation  and  amelioration  of  the  condition  of  all  classes  are  its  primary  objects.  In  this 
century,  men  are  to  be  measured  and  praised  or  censured  by  their  works. 

"The  public  improvements  of  the  Northwest,  radiating  from  the  home  of  his  adoption, 
are  noble  monuments,  commemorating  in  their  usefulness  both  the  character  and  enter- 
prise of  the  subject  of  this  sketch." 

After  Mr.  Ogden's  death,  a  meeting  of  the  Historical  Society  of  Chicago  was  held  Dec. 
10,  1877,  at  which  time  Robert  H.  Clarkson,  Bishop  of  Nebraska,  and  Hon.  Isaac  N.  Arnold, 
President  of  the  Society,  read  interesting  papers.  According  to  the  Inter-Ocean  their  common 
theme  was:  "One  who,  more  than  any  other  man,  living  or  dead,  had  laid  the  foundations 
of  Chicago's  splendor. " 

Bishop  Clarkson  (from  whose  pen  we  have  previously  quoted),  among  other  things, 
said:  "My  purpose  is  simply  to  give  my  own  estimate  of  his  character,  and  of  those  quali- 
ties, mental  and  moral,  that  attached  men  to  him,  and  made  him  so  capable  and  influen- 
tial." In  speaking  of  his  first  impressions,  in  1849,  of  his  "manly  strength  and  elegant 
presence,"  he  said,  "He  impressed  me  then  as  hardly  any  man  had  ever  done  before,  or  has 
ever  done  since,  as  one  of  the  largest-minded  and  most  comprehensive  men  I  had  ever 
seen.  .  .  .  He  was  always  a  leader  and  master  spirit.  .  .  .  If  he  had  given  his  life 
to  the  practice  of  the  art  of  persuasion,  he  would  have  been  the  peer  of  Henry  Clay.  And  if 
he  had  followed  his  original  purpose  of  preparing  himself  for  the  legal  profession,  his  name 
would  have  gone  into  history  alongside  of  that  of  Daniel  Webster.  Had  the  love  of  politics 
or  statesmanship  seduced  him  from  commercial  pursuits,  he  would  unquestionably  have 
taken  rank  with  Lincoln  and  Douglas  and  Seward.  His  great  powers  were  always  used  on 
the  side  of  right  and  justice  and  for  the  public  weal.  No  man  had  ever  a  keener  sense  of 
honor,  and  though  his  active  life  and  positive  character  necessarily  brought  him  sometimes 
in  conflict  with  other  men,  his  personal  integrity  was  ever  unassailed." 

The  first  portrait  of  William  B.  Ogden,  painted  by  Mr.  Geo.  P.  A.  Healy,  was  destroyed 
in  the  Chicago  fire.  Upon  the  request  of  the  Chicago  Historical  Society,  Mrs.  Ogden  ordered 
a  second  portrait  painted  by  the  same  celebrated  artist,  and  when  it  was  finished,  it  was 
presented  by  her  at  a  memorable  meeting  of  the  Society,  Dec.  20,  1881.  Edwin  H.  Sheldon, 
Esq. 1584,  in  behalf  of  Mrs.  Ogden,  made  the  presentation  address,  in  which  he  said:  "I 
lived  under  the  same  roof  with  Mr.  Ogden  for  a  quarter  of  a  century,  and  for  nearly  all  that 
time  we  carried  on  our  house  jointly,  thus  enforcing  a  very  close  and  long-continued  intimacy. 
These  years  brought  to  each  of  us,  as  they  do  to  all,  days  of  trial,  of  suffering,  and  of 
sorrow,  and  yet  in  all  that  time,  looking  back  with  careful  scrutiny,  I  can  not  recall  one 
harsh  or  unkind  word  received  from  him.  His  patience  and  forbearance  were  great;  his 
friendship  steadfast;  and  his  good  will  unbounded.  I  speak  strongly,  perhaps;  but  only  as 
I  feel  justified  in  doing,  from  an  acquaintance  of  over  forty  years." 

Next  followed  a  masterly  memorial  address  by  Hon.  I.  N.  Arnold  (from  which  several 
extracts  have  previously  been  taken),  when  the  Hon.  Thomas  Hoyne  was  called  to  the 
chair,  and  the  Hon.  Elihu  B.  Washburne  paid  an  eloquent  tribute  to  the  memory  of  Mr. 
Ogden.  Among  many  excellent  things,  Mr.  Washburne  said:  "Mr.  Ogden  was  a  man  of 
education,  intelligence,  and  refinement.     As  a  business  man,  he  had  broad  and  enlightened 


C^e  €)gDeu  family 


views,  a  bold  spirit,  and  unerring  sagacity.     Of  courtly  and  polished  manners,  there  is  no 
society  in  the  world  he  would  not  have  adorned." 

The  funeral  ceremonies  took  place  Aug.  6,  1877.  The  procession  moved  from  Mr. 
Ogden's  late  residence,  the  Villa  Boscobel,  to  St.  James'  Church,  Fordham.  The  pall-bearers 
were  Gouverneur  Morris,  William  A.  Booth,  Parke  Godwin,  Oswald  Ottendorfer,  William  H. 
Sheldon,  Martin  Zoborowski,  Lewis  G.  Morris,  Franklin  Edson,  Gabriel  Mead,  and  Andrew 
•H.  Green.  The  services  at  the  church  were  conducted  by  Bishop  Clarkson,  assisted  by  the 
Rev.  Joseph  Blanchard.     The  remains  were  taken  to  Woodlawn  Cemetery  for  burial.

Judge  Isaac  Ogdens76  an(j  n;s  brother  Abraham  left  Morristown,  N.  J.,  in  1797,  and 
settled  in  the  town  of  Walton,  Delaware  county,  N.  Y.,  where  they  purchased  land  adjoining 
the  east  line  of  the  Walton  Tract.  Here  they  erected  a  large  fulling  mill,  and  became  so 
successful  in  the  manufacture  of  woven  fabrics,  that  the  Government  at  one  time  awarded 
them  a  medal  for  the  excellency  of  their  cloth. 

In  early  life  Judge  Ogdens76  began  to  take  an  active  interest  in  political  and  social 
affairs,  and  at  different  periods  held  offices  of  emolument  and  honor.  He  was  a  vestryman 
in  Christ's  Church;  was  member  of  Assembly  1812-14;  Collector  of  U.  S.  Internal  Revenue 
1813-21;  State  Senator  1816-19,  and  again  1824-26;  was  County  Judge  1816-28,  and 
Presidential  Elector  in   1840. 

"Later  in  life  he  retired  from  active  political  life,  and  enjoyed  a  well-earned  rest  in  the 
quiet  and  comfort  of  a  farmer's  life."

July  10,  1850.  Was  exceptionally  pure  and  patriotic.  During  administra- 
tion, Commodore  Perry  was  sent  on  expedition  to  Japan  in  1852,  and  treaty 
ports  were  opened.  Treaties  were  made  with  S.  A.  countries  1851-2;  Plata 
and  Amazon  valleys  explored.  Retired  from  presidency  Mar.  4,  1853.  "He 
left  the  country  at  peace  within  and  without,  and  in  the  enjoyment  of  a 
high  degree  of  prosperity  in  all  departments  of  its  industry."  Was  candi-

cal Society. 

He  married  Caroline  Carmichael  in  1858,  and  spent  his  last  years  in 
Buffalo.  "The  famous  Fillmore  house,  where  President  Fillmore  and  his 
gracious  wife  dispensed  a  lavish  hospitality  for  many  years,  is  on  Niagara 
Square,  one  of  the  pleasant  parts  of  the  city  of  Buffalo.  .  .  .  Later, 
during  its  existence  as  an  apartment  house,  the  old  mansion  touched  the 
White  House  again,  for  to  it  came  as  a  bride  Mrs.  Cleveland's  mother, 
Mrs.  Perrine,  after  several  seasons  with  her  daughter  in  the  Executive 
Mansion. 

"Though  again  refitted,  and  converted  into  a  fashionable  hotel,  the 
original  style  of  the  house  has  been  carefully  preserved.  The  drawing  room 
is  just  as  it  used  to  be.  Here  are  the  curious  shaped  mirrors  that  tell  no 
tales,  although  they  have  reflected  many  a  company  of  distinguished  guests ; 
also  the  heavy  cornices,  quaint  cabinets,  odd-shaped  pieces  of  rosewood 
furniture,  and  French  tapestry  rug.  In  a  niche  on  the  main  stairway  a 
marble  bust  of  President  Fillmore  looks  out  upon  the  new-old  scene.  To 
the  taste  and  generous  investment  of  a  woman,  Buffalo  owes  the  careful 
restoration  and  preservation  of  a  historical  house,  Miss  C.  B.  Burtis  being 
its  present  owner  and  manager  of  the  new  enterprise."

The  "  History  of  Warren  Co.  O."  has  the  following: 

"Thomas  B.  Van  Horne  was  born  in  New  Jersey,  June  i,  1783,  and  came  to  Warren 
Co.  in  1807.  He  was  the  son  of  the  Rev.  William  Van  Horne,  a  Baptist  clergyman,  who

Ohio.     His  remote  ancestors  were  emigrants  from  the  Netherlands. 

"Thomas  B.  settled  on  a  farm  one  mile  east  of  Lebanon,  in  Dec.  1807,  where  he  engaged 
in  the  arduous  labors  of  opening  a  farm  in  the  forest.  He  was  among  the  earliest  volunteers

he  served  until  the  close  of  the  war,  when  he  returned  to  his  agricultural  pursuits.  He  was 
elected  a  Senator  in  the  Legislature  of  Ohio  in  1 8 1 2 ,  1816,  and  1 8 1 7 ,  was  afterwards  appointed

and  removed  to  Perth  Amboy  to  live.  He  became  so  involved  in  adverse  business  trans- 
actions that  his  property  passed  out  of  his  hands,  including  "Barnet  Hall"  which  estate  he 
had  inherited.  He  was  State  Commissioner  for  the  lease  of  oyster  lands  in  1 83 1 .  His  brother 
Dr.  Elias  Ogden<^3,  of  Natchez,  Miss.,  having  secured  the  title  to  "Barnet  Hall,"  Dr.  Oliver 
Wayne  Ogden6'«  returned  to  the  estate,  and  for  several  years  prior  to  his  death  gave  up 
his  very  extensive  medical  practice,  and  devoted  his  time  to  his  farm  and  the  very  fine  mill 
on  it.  He  died  at  "Barnet  Hall"  and  was  buried  with  his  wife  and  several  other  members 
of  the  Ogden  family  in  the  family  burying  ground  on  the  estate.  At  his  death,  his  dau. 
Laura  E.  OgdenwJQ,  received  the  title  to  "Barnet  Hall"  from  her  uncle  Dr.  Elias  Ogden.

Dr.  Elias  Ogden6*3  was  born  in  Morris  Co.,  N.  J.,  and  studied  medicine  with  his  uncle 
Dr.  Isaac  Ogden=43,  at  New  Germantown,  N.  J.,  after  which  he  removed  to  Port  Gibson, 
Miss.,  where  he  built  up  a  lucrative  practice.  While  in  Port  Gibson,  he  married  Mrs.  Ann 
M.  Lane,  nee  Routh,  who  owned  one  of  the  largest  and  finest  plantations  in  that  section 
of  the  country,  lying  in  the  suburbs  of  Natchez,  Miss.  Here  he  built  an  elegant  residence 
called  "Kenilworth,  "  retired  from  the  active  practice  of  his  profession,  and  devoted  himself 
to  the  care  of  the  extensive  estate  belonging  to  his  wife. 

Dr.  Elias  Ogden6*3  accompanied  Gen.  Devereux  to  Bolivia,  S.  A.,  as  surgeon,  when 
the  Bolivians  were  fighting  for  their  independence.  After  the  expedition  returned  to  the 
U.  S.,  Dr.  Ogden  settled  upon  his  estate  "Kenilworth"  and  retired  from  active  life. 

The  Rev.  Joseph  B.  Stratton,  of  Natchez,  wrote  of  him  a  few  years  ago:  "I  officiated 
at  his  burial.  He  was  an  estimable  man,  respected  by  the  whole  community;  he  died  Feb. 
2,  1845,  and  was  buried  in  the  Routh  Cemetery  in  the  suburbs  of  Natchez.  Mrs.  Ogden 
died  about  the  close  of  the  war,  at  Berkley  Springs,  Va.,  where  she  is  buried.  They  were  both 
members  of  my  church."

Gen.  John  A.  Quitman,  LL.D.,  father  of  Fredrika  Quitman,  was  a 
man  of  great  talent,  attainment,  and  distinction.  His  father  Rev.  Frederick 
Henry  Quitman  was  born  in  Germany,  and  graduated  at  University  of  Halle ; 
became  Lutheran  missionary  to  Curacoa  Id.  (Dutch  W.  I.  Ids.),  where  he 
married  Anna  Elizabeth  Hueck  and  remained  twelve  years,  thence  coming 
to  the  U.  S.  and  received  pastoral  charge  at  Schoharie,  N.  Y.,  and  later  at 
Rhinebeck,   N.  Y.,  where,  on  Sept.    1,    1799,  John  A.   Quitman  was  born. 

John  A.  Quitman  was  educated  by  his  father.  At  1 7  years  of  age  he 
was  instructor  in  Hartwick  Academy,  Otsego  Co.,  N.  Y.,  teaching  Greek,

by  Thomas  Jefferson.  In  1836  organized,  largely  at  own  expense,  company  of 
Mississippians  to  relieve  Texans,  and  restored  order  among  people  flying 
before  Santa  Anna.  In  outbreak  of  Mexican  War  in  .1846,  he  received  com-

taking  of  Monterey,  he  led  his  500  men  over  redoubt  to  central  square  of 
city,  his  horse  being  wounded,  and  his  hat  brim  torn  off.  Under  Gen. 
Scott  he  led  the  assault  at  Vera  Cruz,  and  commanded  the  expedition 
against  AlvaTado. 

On  May  12,  1847,  was  commissioned  Brig.  Gen.  in  regular  army.  At 
taking  of  City  of  Mexico,  Gen.  Quitman's  troops  stormed  fortress  of  Chapul- 
tepec  and  the  Belen  Gate,  and  were  the  first  to  plant  American  colors  on 
battlements  of  enemy.  He  received  Gen.  Scott  with  military  honors  on 
Grand  Plaza  of  city,  who  immediately  made  Gen.  Quitman  Governor  of  City 
of  Mexico.  On  Sept.  7,  1848,  he  received  commission  as  Brevet  Maj.  Gen.  for 
distinguished  services.  Dec.  2,  1848,  the  U.  S.  Congress  presented  him 
with  sword  handsomely  jewelled  and  engraved,  given  by  hand  of  Pres.  of 
U.  S.  Citizens  of  Natchez  also  presented  him  with  a  gold  and  jewel-hilted

He  was  elected  Gov.  of  Miss,  in  1848;  member  of  Congress  in  1855 
and  1857.  He  was  a  great  and  pure  statesman,  rivaling  in  influence  and 
power  John  C.  Calhoun.  He  died  July  17,  1858,  "personally  the  most  popular 
man  in  America."  The  Miss.  Legislature  and  bar,  and  the  U.  S.  Congress 
paid  his  memory  every  honor.

O.,  to  practice  law,  and  in  1820  married  Harriet  Hoisingden,  but  continued 
his  downward  career.  "With  great  versatility  of  talent,  a  ready  wit,  and 
an  almost  exhaustless  fund  of  anecdote,  he  had  a  sort  of  popularity  with 
the  town  classes,  even  after  he  had  reached  a  point  of  extreme  moral 
degradation. 

"In  1830  his  mind  took  a  new  direction;  he  abandoned  his  evil  habits, 
professed  faith,  and  became  a  member  of  the  Meth.  Epis.  Church.  Though 
regarded  as  a  highly  accomplished  lawyer,  he  deemed  it  his  duty  to  preach, 
and  was  licensed  as  a  local.  From  1833  to  1837  he  was  Principal  of  Norwalk 
Seminary,  Ohio.  In  1834  he  was  admitted  to  the  Ohio  Conference.  He 
left  the  Seminary  and  labored  by  appointment  of  the  Conference  with  great 
acceptance  and  success  in  Elyria,  O.,  1838,  Tiffin,  O.,  1838-9,  and  Maumee 
City   1 84 1. 

"While  at  Tiffin  his  wife  died,  leaving  him  with  two  children,  the  young- 
est only  a  few  weeks  old.  He  second  married,  at  Maumee  City,  the  widow 
of  Gen.  Josiah  Snelling,  then  late  of  the  5th  Infantry,  U.  S.  A.,  and  daughter 
of  Col.  Thomas  Hunt,  another  distinguished  officer  of  the  army.  In  1842 
he  was  appointed  principal  of  the  branch  of  the  State  University  at  White 
Pigeon,  Wis.,  and  the  college  prospered  under  his  administration.  But  under 
these  labors  his  health  gave  way,  and  he  resigned  his  place  in  the  institution. 
He  died  Sept.  15,  1846,  aged  about  57.  With  his  last  breath  he  cried:  'All 
is  peace ;  all  is  glory. ' 

"Before  his  conversion  he  seemed  to  have  lost  utterly  all  power  of 
resistance  to  the  craving  for  drink,  and  yet  amidst  it  all  there  remained 
amiable  and  able  traits  of  character.  Unlike  most  inebriates  he  was  always 
in  good  humor,  and  no  man  at  any  time  doubted  his  stern  integrity.  Was 
never  profane,  vulgar  or  wicked  in  language,  and  was  never  known  to  speak 
an  unkind  word  to  his  wife  in  his  wildest  moments  of  dissipation.  After 
conversion  he  became  a  temperance  advocate,  and  his  lectures  on  temperance 
were  like  a  tempest,  sweeping  all  before  them,  and  scores  were  reclaimed. 
As  a  preacher  he  was  energetic,  impressive,  eloquent  and  successful  in  win- 
ning souls.  To  the  needy  he  was  more  likely  to  give  the  whole  of  his  last 
loaf  than  half.  Multitudes  honored  and  revered  him  while  living,  and 
remembered  him  with  gratitude  and  veneration." 

There  were  2  children  by  his  1st  m.  and  none  by  the  2d  m.

872.  Col.  William  Edwards  (Rhoda  Ogden^0',  Robert83,  Robert16, 
Jonathan4,  John1),  b.  Northampton,  Mass.,  Nov.  n,  1770;  d.  Brooklyn, 
N.Y.,  Dec.  29,  1851;  m.  Nov.  11,  1793,  Rebecca  Tappan,  b.July  14,  1775; 
d.  Brooklyn,  N.  Y.,  Mar.  27,  1857;  dau.  of  Benjamin  and  Sarah  Holmes 
Tappan,  of  Northampton,  Mass. 

Col.  William  Edwards8'1  was  apprenticed  to  his  uncle  Col.  Oliver  Spencer,  who  was 
at  that  time  a  tanner  and  currier  at  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.  Col.  Edwards  introduced  the 
system  of  tanning  leather  now  used  in  nearly  all  the  tanneries  of  the  United  States,  which 
requires  but  about  one-fourth  of  the  time  previously  taken  by  the  old  European  process. 

He  removed  from  Elizabethtown  to  Northampton,  Mass.  where  he  built  his  first  tannery. 
He  sent  his  first  leather  to  Boston  in  1794.  The  hemlock  bark  having  failed  in  the  Con- 
necticut valley,  he  determined  to  utilize  the  vast  hemlock  forests  of  the  Catskill  Mts.,  and 
in  1817  removed  to  Hunter,  Green  Co.,  N.  Y.  He  erected  his  model  tannery  on  Schoharie 
creek,  from  which  he  annually  shipped  10,000  sides  of  sole-leather  to  the  New  York  market. 
He  invented  many  machines  and  appliances  for  the  better  production  of  leather,  and  made 
water-power  lighten  manual  labor  in  many  ways.  The  great  success  of  American  manu- 
facture of  leather  is  to  be  traced  directly  to  the  improved  methods  first  employed  by  Col. 
William  Edwards8'2.

Fowler,  b.  Oct.  30,  1779;  d.  Feb.  20,  1844. 

Dr.  Samuel  Fowler  was  a  direct  descendant  of  John  Fowler,  who  came  from  England 
and  settled  on  Long  Island  before  1665.  He  was  one  of  the  most  distinguished  men  of  North 
Jersey,  and  a  physician  of  wide  repute.  His  was  the  leading  mind  in  all  medical  consulta- 
tions, and  at  the  meetings  of  the  medical  society.  Of  great  versatility  of  talent,  he  engaged 
in  many  enterprises  and  was  successful  in  all. 

He  1st  m.  1808,  Ann  Breckenridge  Thompson,  dau.  of  Col.  Mark  Thompson,  of  Change- 
water,  N.  J.,  an  officer  of  the  Revolution,  and  a  member  of  Congress  under  Washington's 
administration.  The  only  child  by  this  marriage  became  the  wife  of  Hon.  Moses  Bigelow, 
of  Newark,  N.  J. 

After  his  2d  m.  (to  Rebecca  W.  P.  Ogden886)_  he  carried  on  the  manufacture  of  iron 
at  the  Hamburg,  N.  J.,  forges,  and  his  business  sagacity  made  remunerative  a  hitherto  fail- 
ing business,  which  gave  an  impetus  to  this  industry  hitherto  unknown  in  the  county,  and 
which  has  been  felt  ever  since. 

Dr.  Fowler  was  also  a  distinguished  naturalist  and  mineralogist,  and  collected  a  valu- 
able cabinet  of  American  minerals.  He  corresponded  with  many  scientific  men  at  home  and 
abroad,  and  was  an  honorary  member  of  many  of  the  scientific  societies  of  Europe  and 
America.  He  was  a  personal  friend  and  warm  supporter  of  Gen.  Jackson,  and  was  elected 
to  the  24th  and  25th  Congresses.  He  died  at  Franklin,  N.  J.,  and  is  buried  in  the  North 
Church  Cemeterv.

strict  integrity,  and  was  ever  firm  and  independent  in  action.  As  a  lawyer,  he  was  well-read, 
an  earnest  advocate,  and  had  great  influence  over  courts  and  juries.  As  a  judge,  he  was

transferred  him  to  Bristol,  which  consulate  he  held  until  death. 

He  was  of  an  inventive  turn  of  mind,  and  employed  his  leisure  time  in  devising  improve- 
ments in  the  marine  engine.  He  was  the  first  to  apply  the  principles  of  the  expansive  power 
of  steam.  He  joined  with  Capt.  Ericsson  in  constructing  the  first  experimental  steamboat 
launched  upon  the  Thames,  and  which,  as  a  token  of  his  respect,  Mr.  Ericsson  named  the 
"Francis  B.  Ogden."  He  died  and  was  buried  at  Bristol,  England,  the  following  being 
inscribed  upon  his  monument:

Judge  Elias  B.  Dayton  Ogden«°2  was  one  of  the  most  prominent  of  Gov.  Aaron 
Ogden's  children,  and  was  born  at  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.  He  graduated  at  Princeton  at  19 
years  of  age,  and  immediately  began  the  study  of  law.  He  was  licensed  as  an  attorney  in 
1824,  as  a  counsellor  in  1829,  and  was  made  Sergeant-at-Law  in  1837,  being  the  last  lawyer 
in  New  Jersey  who  ever  received  that  appointment.  He  began  his  legal  career  in  Paterson, 
N.  J.,  which  at  that  time  was  a  small,  struggling  town  on  the  Passaic  river,  but  which  rose 
rapidly  in  importance  from  its  growing  factories.  Dayton  Ogden  (as  he  was  generally 
called)  had  many  competitors  in  his  chosen  profession,  but  soon  became  an  able  advocate, 
and  secured  a  large  clientage. 

Paterson  was  then  included  in  Essex  Co.  and  its  lawyers  were  obliged  to  attend  court 
at  Newark,  the  county-seat.  Soon  after  receiving  his  counsellor's  license,  young  Ogden 
was  appointed  Prosecutor  of  the  Pleas,  the  most  important  office  of  the  kind  in  the  state. 
In  the  prosecution  of  his  duties  he  displayed  great  assiduity  and  unusual  legal  talents.  The 
criminal  business  of  the  county  was  very  large,  requiring  unusual  labor  and  time,  and 
obliged  him  to  be  in  Newark  four  times  during  the  year.  But  while  Mr.  Ogden  always  per- 
formed his  whole  duty  as  Counsel  of  the  State,  he  succeeded  in  retaining  all  his  private 
practice,  and  his  numerous  clients  never  complained  of  his  inattention  to  their  interests. 
This  condition  of  affairs  was  the  result  of  his  great  industry  and  care  in  the  conscientious 
discharge  of  all  his  legal  duties.     He  filled  the  office  of  Prosecutor  for  two  terms. 

His  political  party  early  recognized  his  abilities,  and  twice  elected  him  to  the  State 
Legislature.  In  1844,  when  the  best  talent  of  the  state  was  required  irrespective  of  party 
affiliation,  he  was  chosen  a  member  of  the  Constitutional  Convention.

He  was  appointed  Associate  Justice  in  1848,  and  reappointed  in  1855.  At  the  expira- 
tion of  his  second  term,  Gov.  Charles  S.  Olden,  knowing  the  great  worth  of  Mr.  Ogdbn's 
legal  talent,  departed  from  the  usual  political  procedure,  and  reappointed  him,  although  of 
the  opposite  political  faith,  and  thus  did  honor  to  Judge  Ogden  and  to  himself. 

His  judicial  opinions  were  rendered  after  full  and  careful  examination,  and  were  always 
regarded  as  sensible  and  just.  Among  them  was  one  in  which  he  denied  the  right  of  judges 
of  a  State  court  to  interfere  for  the  release  of  a  prisoner  held  by  the  judgment  of  a  Federal 
court. 

Judge  Ogden  was  a  man  of  sound  judgment  and  sterling  common  sense;  to  his 
fellow  members  of  the  bar,  he  was  genial  and  affable;  as  a  judge  he  was  painstaking  and 
conscientious;  and  during  his  long  term  of  office  he  enjoyed  the  respect  and  confidence  of 
the  whole  community.  At  the  expiration  of  his  last  term,  he  removed  to  Elizabeth,  and 
occupied  the  homestead  of  his  father,  Gov.  Aaron  Ogden,  where  he  was  born,  and  where  he 
died  in  1865.

Hamburg  M'f'g  Co.  He  lost  heavily  when  the  latter  failed.  He  was  a  man  of  strict  integ- 
rity, a  Justice  of  the  Peace,  and  a  useful  citizen.  He  was  proficient  in  music,  gave  the  young 
people  instruction  in  vocal  music,  and  led  the  choir  in  the  Presbyterian  meetings  at  the 
North  Church  and  at  Hamburg.  His  home  was  the  house  which  Dr.  Wm.  H.  Linn  remodeled 
and  occupied.  While  living  here  he  lost  several  of  his  children  by  smallpox,  which  the 
elder  son  had  contracted  while  a  clerk  in  New  York  City.  He  removed  to  Wisconsin,  and 
died  there,  having  attained  the  age  of  77  years.

Judge  Edwards"8  was  the  son  of  Hon.  Timothy  Edwards,  and  gr.  son  of  Pres.  Jonathan 
Edwards  of  Princeton  College.  Coming  of  the  Dwight  and  Edwards  families,  he  inherited 
their  strong  intellect,  will  and  character.  He  received  a  legal  training,  and  in  early  manhood 
went  to  New  York  City,  where  he  was  elected  Surrogate,  which  office  he  filled  for  several 
years.  Later  he  was  a  State  Legislator,  and  for  many  years  Corporation  Counsel  for  the 
city.  He  was  a  member  of  the  Constitutional  Convention  of  182 1,  and  gained  great  credit 
as  a  sound,  able,  and  conservative  statesman.  After  adoption  of  the  Constitution  he  was 
appointed  Circuit  Judge  of  the  Supreme  Court  for  the  circuit  including  New  York,  which 
office  he  filled  until  he  was  60  years  old,  the  age  limit  under  the  Constitution.  A  portion  of 
the  Whig  party  once  ran  him  for  Governor.  He  afterward  held  an  appointment  in  the  Custom 
House  under  Collector  Maxwell,  but  spent  the  closing  20  years  of  his  life  in  retirement  at 
his  home  on  Staten  Id.  He  was  an  early  and  active  member  of  the  old  Republican  party, 
and  died  in  the  midst  of  the  Civil  War  with  the  firm  conviction  that  the  Union  would  be 
perpetuated.

with  James  Stevenson  &  Co.  Pittsburg  became  his  permanent  residence.  He  was  a  man  of 
intellectual  pursuits,  and  a  man  of  unblemished  character.  He  gathered  extensive  material 
for  a  family  history,  which  was  destroyed  in  the  great  fire  of  1845.  His  genealogical  record

The  above  data  were  taken  from  a  fly-leaf  of  a  book  in  possession  of  the  family,  the 
record  being  as  follows: 

"This  book  was  sent  on  from  England  for  the  use  of  some  church.  The  vessel  on  which 
it  was  shipped  was  captured  during  the  Revolutionary  War,  and  all  the  cargo  sold  as  a 
captured  prize  at  public  auction. 

"Richard  Dean  of  New  York  purchased  it  and  presented  it  to  his  daughter,  Annie 
Dean,  who  was  married  to  Capt.  William  Wade,  British  Army,  17S0.  Presented  to  Anna 
Wade  and  Charles  Ogden,  Anno  Domini,   1S11. 

"Presented  to  Robert  Wade  Ogden  January  28,  1838."

Judge  Charles  Jos.  Ogden*447  was  educated  at  Romain's  Institute, 
New  Orleans,  and  at  an  early  age  began  the  study  of  law.  He  was  a  bright 
student  and  passed  an  examination  for  admission  to  the  bar  before  he  was 
20.  He  remained  in  New  Orleans  but  a  short  time  after  having  qualified, 
and  took  up  residence  in  Omaha,  Neb.,  where  he  opened  an  extensive  and 
lucrative  practice.  He  became  one  of  the  ablest  attorneys  in  the  state,  and 
was  appointed  Judge  of  the  District  Court  at  Omaha,  serving  three  years 
with  distinction.  He  resigned  to  attend  to  his  large  private  practice.  No 
decision  made  while  judge  was  ever  reversed  by  the  Supreme  Court  of  the 
state.  He  was  a  lifelong  Democrat,  was  leader  of  that  party  in  his  adopted 
state,  and  was  one  of  the  organizers  of  the  National  League  of  Democratic 
Clubs.  He  was  a  brilliant  orator  and  made  the  opening  speech  at  the  Balti- 
more convention,  having  been  elected  chairman  at  the  Hoffmann  House, 
New  York  City,  in  1888.  Judge  Ogden  was  chairman  of  the  Dem.  State 
Central  Committee  that  elected  James  Boyd  governor  of  Nebraska.  When 
the  latter  was  unseated,  it  was  Judge  Ogden  that  went  to  Washington  and 
had  him  reinstated.  He  died  suddenly  of  apoplexy,  having  practised  law 
for  nearly  30  yrs.     He  left  no  children.

demand  throughout  the  state.  He  was  pre-eminently  eloquent,  had  a  broad,  clear  insight 
as  to  both  men  and  matters,  an  unfaltering  steadfastness  of  purpose,  and  a  deep  and  abiding 
charity  toward  all  men.

Yan  has  many  curious  and  interesting  relics  that  were  collected  during  his  foreign  residence.

Rivers.  His  wife  was  the  daughter  of  a  merchant  of  Quebec.

David  A.  Ogden  1342  obtained  a  commission  in  the  British  Army  when  only  21  years  old 
He  went  to  England  and  was  soon  ordered  to  India.  He  fought  in  the  Afghan  war  of 
1878-80  with  valor  and  distinction,  for  which  he  was  made  Captain  in  the  "Prince  of 
Wales'  Own."  He  then  served  as  Lieut.  Colonel  with  the  5th  Westmoreland.  He  after- 
ward retired  from  the  army  and  settled  in  the  Island  of  Guernsey,  whence  he  removed  to 
Alderney,  and  there  spent  the  remainder  of  his  life. 

His  father-in-law,  Maj.  Gen.  Boyd  Saunders,  was  in  command  of  the  Bengal  cavalry 
at  Sealhote,  N.  W.  India,  when  the  mutiny  of  1857  broke  out.  Through  the  faithfulness 
of  a  native  servant,  he  and  his  family  were  hidden,  and  escaped  the  awful  massacre.  Their 
lives  only  were  saved,  as  every  thing  they  possessed  was  taken  or  destroyed  by  the  maddened 
rebels.  He  was  later  appointed  to  assist  in  the  trial  of  the  rebel  leaders.

Peter  Ogdenu62  became,  as  his  father  Peter  Skene  Ogden  before  him,  Chief  Factor  of 
the  Hudson  Bay  Co.  He  inherited  the  best  characteristics  of  his  father,  was  fully  trusted 
by  the  Company,  and  had  the  love  and  respect  of  the  men  under  him,  and  the  Indians  with 
whom  they  traded. 

Phrisine  Brabbant,  who  became  his  wife,  was  of  a  French-Canadian  family,  and  was 
born  at  Edmonton,  on  the  Saskatchewan  River.  A  year  after  her  decease,  a  son-in-law  thus 
wrote:  "God  bless  the  noble,  good,  holy  woman, — my  mother  in  name  and  deed.  I  was 
taken  in  hand  by  her  as  a  wild,  reckless  lad  just  off  the  ocean,  and  she  moulded  me  as  she 
chose,  although  such  a  retiring  woman.  She  was  to  me  mother,  mentor,  director  and  ad- 
viser, and  created  an  imperishable  love  and  veneration  in  my  heart." 

The  following  children  were  residents  of  British  Columbia,  and  more  or  less  connected

He  was  a  clerk  in  the  Hudson  Bay  Co.  and  was  very  popular  with  all 
who  knew  him.  He  possessed  great  strength,  and  was  fond  of  athletic 
sports.  His  death  was  peculiarly  sad.  While  hunting  with  some  Indian  com- 
panions, he  followed  the  dogs  in  pursuit  of  a  bear  with  such  speed,  he  left  his 
fellow-hunters  far  behind.  When  they  came  up,  they  found  Peter  and  the 
lolling  dogs  lying  on  the  ground  beside  the  dead  bear,  awaiting  their  arrival. 
Being  over-heated,  he  took  a  severe  cold,  from  the  effects  of  which  he  died  a 
week  later.  The  shock  was  so  severe  on  his  father  that  it  caused  his  death, 
and  both  father  and  son  were  buried  on  the  same  day.

Capt.  Duncan  C.  Ogden'4i°  was  the  son  of  Judge  D.  A.  Ogden,  of  Ogdensburg,  N.  Y., 
the  associate  of  Hon.  Alexander  Hamilton  in  the  practice  of  law.  He  was  born  in  New  York 
City,  but  early  in  life  located  in  New  Orleans  to  engage  in  commercial  pursuits  with  his 
uncle.  The  trouble  between  Texas  and  Mexico  aroused  his  patriotism,  and  in  the  summer  of 
1838  he  went  to  Galveston  and  cast  his  lot  with  the  new  republic.  He  was  at  once  appointed 
Captain  in  a  new  regiment  called  into  service  to  resist  a  second  invasion  by  Gen.  Santa  Anna. 
He  commanded  his  company  in  the  Cherokee  War,  and  in  the  perilous  expedition  of  Col. 
William  G.  Cook  in  running  the  military  road  from  Red  River  to  Austin.  Capt.  Ogden 
was  in  a  number  of  murderous  skirmishes  with  the  Indians  in  behalf  of  his  adopted  state. 
At  the  Mexican  invasion  of  San  Antonio  in  1842  he  was  taken  prisoner  by  Gen.  Adrian  Wall 
and  taken  to  Mexico,  where  he  was  confined  in  the  Castle  of  Perote  for  eighteen  months. 
He  escaped  with  the  other  prisoners,  but  led  by  intense  thirst  to  hazard  his  person,  he  was 
recaptured  and  sentenced  to  death.  He  was  reprieved  and  through  Cassius  M.  Clay  was 
finally  released. 

Being  a  man  of  intellectual  strength  and  superior  education,  he  was  elected  to  Congress 
by  a  grateful  people.  He  served  his  district  in  Washington  with  as  great  ability  as  in  war, 
and  upon  the  expiration  of  his  term,  retired  to  private  life.  He  resided  in  San  Antonio, 
where  he  died,  universally  beloved  and  respected. 

Elizabeth  (Cox)  Ogden  was  a  native  of  Kentucky,  but  the  family  emigrated  to  Texas 
in  1829,  when  she  was  three  years  old.  Her  loyalty  to  Texas  was  as  passionate  as  that  of 
her  husband.  She  was  a  "Daughter "  both  of  the  Republic  and  of  the  Confederacy,  and  was 
active  in  all  their  public  functions  in  San  Antonio.  She  was  a  woman  of  remarkable  mental 
vigor  and  intelligence  to  the  time  of  her  death  in  her  78th  year.

Thomas  W.  Ogden"kk>  was  educated  at  King's  College,  New  York,  now  Columbia 
University,  being  a  member  of  the  class  of  1829.  His  only  business  connection  was  as  a 
broker  in  Wall  St.,  New  York,  for  about  ten  years,  having  become  a  member  of  the  Stock 
Exchange  in  1854.  Shortly  after  the  Civil  War  he  retired  to  Pelham,  but  spent  the  last 
twenty  or  twenty-five  years  in  quiet  residence  at  Morristown,  N.  J.  Both  he  and  his  wife 
died  of  pneumonia  within  a  few  hours  of  each  other,  Mr.  Ogden  being  nearly  91  years  of 
age,  and  his  wife  but  three  years  younger.  The  double  funeral  was  held  at  St.  Paul's

€igl)tl)  defeneration 


George  Parish  Ogden'473  was  born  at  Waddington  (formerly'Hamilton),  St.  Lawrence 
Co.,  N.  Y.  He  was  educated  at  the  village  school,  Ogdensburg  Academy,  and  by  private 
tutors.  He  went  to  Quebec,  Canada,  in  1835,  and  resided  there  fifteen  years,  during  which 
he  made  several  voyages  to  England.  In  1850  he  removed  to  Troy, IN.  Y.,  where  he  was 
engaged  in  private  banking  and  brokerage.  In  1887  he  removed  from  Troy  to  Boston, 
where  he  resided  until  his  death.

Henry  Vining  Ogdenm74  was  born  at  Waddington,  St.  Lawrence  Co.,  N.  Y.  His 
father,  Gouverneur  Ogden49i,  early  in  life  saw  the  vast  possibilities  of  the  wild  and  romantic 
region  of  the  Adirondacks,  and  determined  to  aid  in  its  development.  He  engaged  in  the 
erection  of  mills  and  furnaces,  and  built  a  mansion  called  "Ellerslie"  at  Waddington,  where 
his  large  family  of  children  were  born.  The  father,  being  a  graduate  of  Columbia  College, 
New  York,  naturally  desired  that  his  sons  should  receive  a  liberal  education. 

Henry  Vining  Ogden  was  sent  to  the  Vermont  Episcopal  Institute,  Burlington,  then 
under  the  supervision  of  the  Rt.  Rev.  John  Henry  Hopkins,  Prot.  Epis.  Bishop  of  N.  Y. 
While  thus  preparing  for  college,  the  great  financial  panic  of  1837  occurred,  which  caused 
the  failure  of  his  father  in  business.  His  college  education  being  frustrated,  and  with  an 
ambition  to  make  his  own  livelihood,  he  decided  upon  entering  commercial  life.  He  went 
to  Montreal,  Canada,  and  entered  the  commission  and  grain  exporting  house  of  J.  &  T. 
Gordon.  His  clerkship  here  unfolded  his  native  powers,  and  gained  for  him  that  spirit  of 
self-reliance  which  so  largely  contributed  to  his  later  success  in  the  business  world,  and 
which  brought  his  services  in  greater  demand. 

Believing  that  greater  possibilities  awaited  him  in  the  West,  he  left  Montreal  via  the 
Great  Lakes,  and  travelled  as  far  as  Cleveland,  O.,  whence  he  crossed  the  state  to  the  Ohio 
River  and  arrived  at  St.  Louis  by  water,  in  Aug.,  1843.  He  quickly  found  employment  as 
levee  and  forwarding  clerk  in  the  large  commission  house  of  Jas.  E.  Woodruff  &  Co.,  one  of 
the  members  of  which  was  Edward  K.  Collins,  of  New  York,  the  projector  and  part  owner 
of  the  Collins  Line  of  ocean  steamers.  In  1847  he  saw  brighter  prospects  in  the  South,  and 
despite  the  prevalence  of  yellow  fever  in  New  Orleans,  he  decided  to  go  to  the  latter  city. 
With  an  enlarged  business  experience,  he  readily  secured  a  position  with  Kelly  &  Conyng- 
ham,  a  large  commission  cotton,  sugar  and  tobacco  house,  the  firm  also  being  financial 
agents  of  several  banking  houses  of  Kentucky.  In  the  spring  of  1848  he  was  taken  with 
yellow  fever,  but  happily  recovered,  becoming  fully  acclimated.  In  1851  he  accepted  the 
unsolicited  position  of  bookkeeper  and  assistant  cashier  in  the  general  agency  of  The  Sun 
Mutual  Insurance  Co.  of  New  York.  The  advancing  business  of  fire-underwriting  had  become 
important,  and  was  in  the  line  of  Mr.  Ogden's  business  tastes.  While  thus  engaged  in  1854, 
he  unexpectedly  was  offered  the  resident  secretaryship  of  The  Liverpool  and  London  and 
Globe  Ins.  Co.,  Southern  Dept.,  with  headquarters  and  local  Board  of  Directors  in  New 
Orleans.  Recognizing  this  as  an  all-important  opening,  he  accepted  the  position.  The 
business  was  prosperous  until  the  breaking  out  of  the  Civil  War,  and  when  New  Orleans 
surrendered  to  the  Federal  fleet  in  1862,  Mr.  Ogden  cast  his  lot  with  the  Southern  cause,  be- 
lieving the  North  had  not  the  right  to  coerce  the  South  to  relinquish  her  slaves  without  due

compensation,  and  entered  the  Confederate  service.  He  sent  his  family  North  in  1860,  and 
as  a  member  of  5th  Co.  Washington  Artillery  of  New  Orleans,  served  with  great  devotion 
during  the  entire  struggle.  He  participated  in  seventeen  pitched  battles,  was  in  numerous 
skirmishes,  and  had  four  horses  killed  under  him,  but  himself  escaped  personal  injury.  As 
a  soldier,  he  was  cool  in  emergency,  unflinching  in  courage,  and  was  ever  animated  by  a 
Christian  spirit  and  devotion  to  duty.  His  record  had  the  entire  approval  of  his  officers, 
and  he  was  honorably  discharged  and  duly  paroled  at  the  close  of  the  war.  His  wife  and 
family  rejoined  him  after  a  separation  of  five  years. 

When  Mr.  Ogden  returned  to  New  Orleans  in  May,  1865,  he  found  the  L.  L.  and  G.  Ins. 
Co.  had  felt  constrained  to  appoint  another  resident  secretary  in  his  place;  but  he  was 
offered,  and  accepted,  the  secretaryship  of  The  Crescent  Mutual  Ins.  Co.  of  New  Orleans. 
While  thus  employed,  in  1872,  Mr.  Ogden  was  notified  by  the  British  Foreign  Office  of  his 
appointment  as  acting  British  Consul  at  New  Orleans,  pending  the  arrival  of  a  new  incum- 
bent. He  discharged  the  duties  of  the  Consulate  with  such  satisfaction  to  the  Foreign 
Office  for  five  months,  it  signified  its  appreciation  of  the  important  services  rendered  by 
Mr.  Ogden  in  the  following  letter: 

"Foreign  Office, 

"May   21,   1872. 

"Sir:  I  am  directed  by  Earl  Granville  to  inform  you  that  the  Secretary  of  State  for  the 
Colonies  has  acquainted  His  Lordship  that  Mr.  Ogden,  while  Acting  British  Consul  at  New 
Orleans,  was  of  great  service  to  the  Governor  at  British  Honduras  in  matters  connected 
with  its  postal  arrangements  of  that  Colony;  and  I  am  to  instruct  you  to  inform  Mr.  Ogden 
that  Lord  Granville  has  received  with  satisfaction  this  testimony  of  the  zeal  evinced  by  him 
while  temporarily  in  charge  of  Her  Majesty's  Consulate. 

"I   am,   Sir 

"&c.  &c.   &c. 

(Signed)    "E.    Hammond. 
"To  Albany  Fonblanque,   Esq' 

"&c.  &c." 

At  a  meeting  of  the  citizens  of  New  Orleans  on  Jan.  28,  1870,  it  was  resolved  to  send  a 
delegation  of  seventy  citizens  to  Washington  to  confer  with  President  Grant  concerning 
the  very  dangerously  disturbed  political  conditions  existing  in  the  city  of  New  Orleans, 
largely  consequent  upon  the  enfranchisement  of  the  negro.  Mr.  Ogden  was  one  of  the  fifty 
or  more  delegates  who  accepted  and  went.  Upon  arriving  at  Washington,  the  delegation 
soon  arranged  an  interview  with  the  President.  On  that  occasion,  the  Hon.  John 
A.  Campbell,  ex-Justice  of  the  U.  S.  Supreme  Court,  acted  as  spokesman,  and  clearly 
placed  and  explained  the  political  conditions  obtaining  in  New  Orleans  to  President  Grant 
and  the  U.  S.  Attorney  General,  Geo.  H.  Williams,  who  was  present  throughout  the  inter- 
view. Subsequently,  the  delegation  were  twice  before  the  Senate  Committee  on  Privileges 
and  Elections,  Senators  Matthew  H.  Carpenter  and  Levi  P.  Morton  presiding  on  the  different 
occasions.  The  foregoing  incident  shows  the  high  esteem  and  confidence  reposed  in  Mr. 
Ogden  by  his  fellow  citizens. 

In  1879,  the  resident  secretary  of  the  Southern  Dep't  of  the  Liverpool  and  London  and 
Globe  Ins.  Co.,  who  had  been  appointed  in  Mr.  Ogden's  place,  suddenly  died,  and,  with  many 
others,  he  applied  for  the  position.  His  reappointment  was  very  gratifying  to  Mr.  Ogden, 
as  well  as  being  a  high  compliment  from  his  old  company. 

In  1893,  and  when  70  years  of  age,  he  suffered  a  stroke  of  apoplexy,  accompanied  by 
paralysis  of  the  left  side.  He  partially  recovered  from  this,  but  had  a  second  attack  in  1895 
and  felt  the  necessity  of  resigning  his  secretaryship,  to  take  effect  Dec.  31,  1896.     He  was 


HENRY    VININt;    OI.BKV,  h: 


€i%\)t\)  ctscncratton 


the  first  manager  appointed  by  any  foreign  company  having  a  department  and  headquarters 
in  the  South,  and  is  today  (July,  1903)  the  oldest  survivor  of  the  old  fire-underwriting 
regime  in  the  city  of  New  Orleans.  For  the  few  past  years,  Mr.  Ogden  has  resided  in  Mil- 
waukee, Wis.,  going  there  from  New  Orleans  in  May,  1896. 

Politically,  Mr.  Ogden  was  originally  an  old  line  Whig;  consequently  he  had  natural 
predilections  for  the  Republican  party;  but  a  candid  study  of  the  political  situation  at  the 
opening  of  the  Civil  War  led  him  to  fully  espouse  the  Southern  cause.  The  political  condi- 
tions prevailing  in  Louisiana  after  the  war  confirmed  his  opinions,  and  he  acted  till  late 
years  with  the  Democratic  party.  Mr.  Ogden  always  had  a  candid  and  unprejudiced  judg- 
ment, and  the  following  excerpt  of  a  recent  letter  to  a  friend  is  apropos  here,  and  character- 
istic of  the  man:  "I  felt  badly  when  the  Confederacy  went  down.  Now  I  am  sure  the  resolu- 
tion of  the  Northern  people  that  human  slavery  should  be  destroyed,  and  the  Union  should 
be  maintained,  successfully  carried  out,  was  the  greatest  tribute  ever  paid  the  Anglo-Saxon 
race. " 

Mr.  Ogden  is  a  member  of  the  Protestant  Episcopal  Church.  For  more  than  thirty 
years  he  had  been  Secretary  of  the  Standing  Committee  of  the  Diocese  of  Louisiana;  for 
about  fifty  years  a  member  of  the  Vestry  of  Trinity  Church,  New  Orleans;  and  for  twenty- 
five  years  successively  Junior  and  Senior  Warden.  Trinity  Church  has  given  six  Bishops 
from  among  its  rectors  to  the  church  at  large,  and  Mr.  Ogden 's  close  association  with  these 
devoted  and  distinguished  men  furnished  him  with  rare  privileges  for  extended  and  liberal 
culture. 

He  has  long  been  actively  identified  with  the  charitable  work  of  New  Orleans.  He 
responded  to  the  first  call  to  organize  the  Society  for  the  Prevention  of  Cruelty  to  Animals, 
and  was  made  member  of  the  first  Board  of  Directors;  was  President  of  the  Sunday  League, 
the  first  organization  in  New  Orleans  for  the  better  observance  of  the  Sabbath, — the  Society 
being  active  today;  was  President  of  the  Society  for  the  Indigent  Blind,  for  which  much  . 
money  was  collected  for  a  suitable  building  and  its  equipment,  which  were  passed  over 
to  the  control  of  the  state  when  the  latter  agreed  to  maintain  the  institution.  For  over 
thirty  years  Mr.  Ogden  was  Director  and  Treasurer  of  the  largely  endowed  orphan 
asylum  known  as  the  Society  for  Indigent  Protestant  Boys;  was  a  member  of  the  Board 
of  Commissioners  of  the  Fink  Home  for  Protestant  Widows  and  Orphans,  another  largely 
endowed  institution. 

"Upon  resigning  his  position  with  The  Liverpool  and  London  and  Globe  Ins.  Co.  in 
1896,  and  so  severing  a  connection  dating  back  forty-three  years,  the  officials  of  the  company 
signified  their  appreciation  of  his  long  service  by  voting  him  a  pension  for  life,  quite  in  accord 
with  their  well-known  reputation  for  liberality,  so  that  a  connection  beginning  long  ago 
will  virtually  end  only  with  his  death."

was  destroyed  by  fire  on  Ash  Wednesday,  Mar.  1,  1843,  while  the  family  were  at  church; 
its  massive  walls  remain  standing  to  recall  the  historic  past.  John  Greig  Ogden  was 
educated  at  the  Vermont  Episcopal  Institute,  after  which  he  studied  law  in  New  York. 
Soon  after  graduation  he  turned  his  attention  to  commercial  life.  He  was  long  time  resident 
of  Albany,  N.  Y.,  where  he  died  of  heart  failure.

2859.  Gouverneur  Morris  Ogden,  Jr.,  Esq.,  b.  1857;  d.  Feb.  n,   1895. 

He  was  educated  at  Harvard,  but  ill  health  prevented  him  from  taking 
his  degree.  He  was  afterward  graduated  from  Columbia  College  Law  School, 
and  as  member  of  the  Bar.  His  chiefs  were  Judge  Lacombe  and  Judge 
Beekman,  and  he  did  excellent  work  for  the  city  in  the  office  of  the  Cor- 
poration Counsel.  For  five  years  previous  to  his  death,  Mr.  Ogden  was  the 
Secretary  of  the  Committee  of  Counsel  of  the  Lawyers'  Title  Insurance  Co. 
In  this  position  he  rendered  very  efficient  service,  and  the  Company  sus- 
tained a  heavy  loss  in  his  death.  Mr.  Ogden  was  by  nature  kind,  gentle 
and  amiable,  and,  doubtless  because  of  these  qualities,  few  men  in  New 
York  City  had  so  large  a  number  of  friends.

George  W.  Ogden's6s  was  born  at  Walton,  N.  Y.  While  a  young  man,  he  left  his 
native  town,  Oct.,  1836,  and  travelled  by  stage,  canal  and  boat  to  Milwaukee,  Wis.;  thence 
by  ox-cart  to  Lake  Koshkonong,  about  70  m.  west  of  Milwaukee,  and  in  four  days  arrived 
(Oct.  20,  1836)  atthefoot  of  the  lake  and  made  his  claim  on  Rock  River.  Here  he  established 
himself  as  a  farmer,  was  married  in  a  few  years,  and  reared  all  his  children.  He  was  a  capable 
man,  and  was  highly  respected  by  all  who  knew  him.  He  was  always  active  and  prominent 
in  town  and  county  affairs,  being  a  leading  Democrat  until  the  nomination  of  Lincoln  for 
President,  when  he  voted  for  Lincoln  and  emancipation.     He  died  at  Milton,  Wis. 

His  widow,  Electa  (Coon)  Ogden,  was  born  at  Almond,  N.  Y.    She  is  still  living  (Nov. 
2,   1902)  and  possesses  good  health  and  unimpaired  mental  faculties.

Smith  Mead,  b.  Feb.  6,  1811;  d.  July  16,  1888;  son  of  Alan  Mead, 
of  Walton,  N.  Y. 

Gabriel  S.  Mead  succeeded  his  father,  Alan  Mead,  in  the  tanning  business  at  Walton, 
N.  Y.  The  latter  was  one  of  the  pioneer  settlers  of  Walton,  and  about  1803  opened  a  tan- 
nery for  general  business.  In  1810  he  purchased  the  large  tannery  of  John  and  Nathaniel 
Steele,  and  in  181 5  introduced  an  improved  process  of  grinding  bark.  Gabriel  S.  and  his 
brother  John  succeeded  their  father  in  the  business,  and  in  1842  built  a  more  extensive 
tannery  on  "West  Brook,"  Walton,  which  was  burned  in  1857,  but  rebuilt  in  1858,  when 
Mead,  North  &  Co.  became  the  firm  name. 

His  wife,  Eliza  Ann  Irene  (Ogden)  Mead's",  was  a  prominent  woman  socially,  and 
possessed  rare  and  beautiful  virtues.  Her  mental  activities  and  general  interest  in  public 
affairs  are  shown  by  a  diary  which  she  kept  open  from  her  school  days.  Her  house  was  the 
rallying  point  in  the  projecting  of  important  plans  for  the  good  of  the  community,  and  where 
peace  was  made  between  contending  factions.  Modest  and  retiring,  but  broad-minded  and 
benevolent,  she  was  the  centre  and  inspiration  of  all  good  works  in  both  church  and  com- 
munity. She  responded  to  every  appeal  of  charity,  and  her  cheerful  presence  was  greatly 
appreciated  in  the  homes  of  sickness  and  distress.  Her  tender  nursings,  timely  counsels 
and  general  helpfulness  endeared  her  to  all  classes,  and  her  death  was  regarded  as  a  public 
calamity.

1802;  d.  Dec.  13,  1897;  son  of  Medad  Butler  and  Hannah  Tylee,  his  wife. 

Charles  Butler,  LL.D.,  was  born  at  Kinderhook  Landing  (now  Stuyvesant),  Columbia 
Co.,  N.  Y.,  and  lived  to  be  nearly  96  years  of  age,  having  used  glasses  and  a  cane  but  a  short 
time  before  his  death,  although  his  life  was  despaired  of  from  pulmonary  troubles  60  years 
prior  to  the  end.  He  also  successfully  resisted  an  attack  of  pneumonia  but  a  year  before  his 
death,  and  closed  his  long,  useful  and  honorable  career  in  great  peace  at  his  home,  78  Park 
Ave.,  New  York  City. 

Dr.  Butler's  mother  was  a  lineal  descendant  of  Oliver  Cromwell.  He  received  his 
early  education  in  the  district  school  at  Kinderhook,  and  subsequently  entered  Greenville 
Academy,  Greenville,  N.  Y.  After  leaving  that  institution,  he  studied  law  with  Martin 
Van  Buren,  and  was  admitted  to  the  bar  in  1824.  He  began  his  legal  practice  in  Geneva, 
N.  Y.,  where  he  obtained  large  loans  on  bond  and  mortgage  for  many  farmers  who  were 
suffering  from  lack  of  capital.  In  1825,  a  few  years  after  the  Erie  Canal  was  opened, 
which  he  actively  sought  to  promote,  he  foresaw  the  vast  possibilities  of  future  western 
commerce,  and  while  stopping  in  the  little  village  of  Chicago,  then  numbering  but  200  in- 
habitants, he  predicted  the  little  Lake  village  was  destined  to  become  the  largest  inland 
city  of  America.  In  1835  he  induced  his  brother-in-law,  William  B.  Ogden,  to  take  up 
residence  there,  and  himself  became  heavily  interested  in  the  Michigan  Southern,  Chicago 
and  Rock  Island,  and  Chicago  and  Northwestern  railroads. 

As  a  young  man  he  was  a  personal  friend  of  John  Jacob  Astor,  and  induced  the  great 
millionaire  to  invest  money  in  the  development  of  the  country  about  Geneva,  where  he 
was  at  the  time  practising  law.  He  was  a  warm  friend  of  Samuel  J.  Tilden,  and  was  as- 
sociated with  him  in  many  legal  battles.  He  successfully  fought  the  repudiation  movement 
in  Indiana.  He  enjoyed  the  firm  friendship  of  several  great  literary  men,  as  James  Anthony 
Froude  and  Matthew  Arnold,  and  received  many  personal  letters  from  Thomas  Carlyle. 
During  the  great  theological  battle  between  the  General  Assembly  of  the  Presbyterian 
Church,  and  Dr.  Briggs  and  the  Union  Theological  Seminary,  Dr.  Butler  was  a  tower  of 
strength  for  Dr.  Briggs  and  the  more  liberal  thought  he  represented.

Dr.  Butler  went  to  New  York  City  in  1834,  and  became  an  active  member  of  the  Council 
of  New  York  University.  He  and  his  wife,  Eliza  Abigail  (Ogden)  ButleriS77,  helped  to  found 
the  Protestant  Half  Orphan  Asylum  and  also  the  Union  Theological  Seminary.  In  1836 
he  took  a  seat  in  the  Council  of  New  York  University,  and  was  made  President  of  the  Council 
in  1849,  but  resigned  upon  going  abroad.     He  was  again  made  President  in  1886. 

The  Wabash  University  conferred  upon  him  the  degree  of  LL.D.  in  1853,  and  later 
the  New  York  University  did  the  same;  although  he  was  eminently  qualified,  he  had  no 
penchant  for  titles  and  preferred  the  plain  address.  He  was  one  of  the  founders  of  the  Union 
League  Club,  a  member  of  the  Century  Association,  Sons  of  the  Revolution,  New  England 
Society,  American  Fine  Arts  Society,  Metropolitan  Museum  of  Arts,  and  American  Museum 
of  Natural   History. 

His  splendid  philanthropy,  his  eminence  as  a  lawyer,  and  his  fine  qualities  of  man- 
hood made  him  a  conspicuous  and  beloved  citizen  for  very  many  years.  Dr.  Butler  made 
many  generous  gifts  to  charitable  and  educational  institutions,  the  most  important  being 
an  endowment  of  $100,000  which  he  gave  in  Mar.,  1890,  to  found  the  Edward  Robinson  Chair 
of  Biblical  Theology  of  the  Union  Theological  Seminary,  and  at  the  same  time  $100,000 
to  New  York  University  in  memory  of  his  son,  Abraham  Ogden  Butler,  and  his  elder  brother, 
Benjamin  Franklin  Butler,  who  was  Attorney-General  in  the  Cabinet  of  Andrew  Jackson. 

He  enjoyed  a  remarkably  successful  birthday  anniversary  in  completing  his  93d  year. 
His  many  friends  of  all  ages  surrounded  the  hospitable  table  at  his  home,  and  the  ninety- 
three  brightly-burning  candles  could  hardly  impress  the  minds  of  his  friends  with  the  actual 
length  of  his  days,  because  of  his  physical  vigor,  active  mind,  and  very  great  joy  of  soul. 
Full  of  years,  honors,  riches,  and  with  the  profoundest  love  and  esteem  of  a  multitude  of 
friends,  his  unselfish  and  benevolent  life  ended  in  great  comfort  and  peace.  His  body  was 
interred  in  Woodlawn  Cemetery,  and  upon  his  monument  occur  these  well-chosen  words: 
"Loving  and  devoted  in  every  relation  of  life,  large-hearted,  liberal,  patriotic  and  devout, 
a  leader  in  civic  and  Christian  efforts  for  the  public  good."

He  graduated  at  the  University  of  New  York  in  1853.  Upon  his  monu-

C^e  £>gDcn  family 


Mahlon  Dickerson  Ogdeni58i  was  born  in  Walton,  N.  Y.,  and  named  for  his  father's 
personal  friend,  Hon.  Mahlon  Dickerson,  Governor  of  New  Jersey.  He  was  graduated  from 
Hobart  College,  Geneva,  N.  Y.,  and  studied  law  in  the  office  of  Chief-Justice  Swain,  at  Colum- 
bus, O.  In  1837  he  went  to  Chicago,  formed  a  partnership  with  Hon.  Isaac  N.  Arnold, 
and  finally  entered  the  firm  afterward  known  as  Ogden,  Sheldon  &  Co.  He  was  the  legal 
member  of  the  firm  to  advise  in  regard  to  titles,  etc.,  in  the  large  land  deals  of  those  days. 

He  possessed  a  very  high  character  as  a  business  man,  and  his  genial  disposition  and 
amiable  qualities  of  mind  and  heart  won  for  him  a  host  of  friends  in  both  private  and  public 
life.  The  high  order  of  his  business  qualifications  made  him  a  valued  and  influential  citizen. 
He  purchased  the  block  just  north  of  Washington  Park,  and  there  built  his  residence. 
Surrounded  by  heavy  shrubbery,  it  was  the  only  building  left  untouched  by  the  great 
Chicago  fire  of  1871  on  the  North  Side,  in  the  long  stretch  from  the  river  to  Lincoln  Park. 
He  later  took  up  residence  in  the  suburb  of  Elmhurst. 

He  was  successful  in  his  business  ventures,  and  his  death  was  mourned  by  a  large  circle 
of  representative  commercial  and  public  men  of  Chicago.  His  funeral  was  held  at  St.  James' 
Episcopal  Church,  North  Side,  which  was  crowded  with  an  earnest  and  devout  assembly. 
The  services  were  conducted  by  the  Rt.  Rev.  Bishop  Clarkson  of  Nebraska,  who  had  been 
rector  of  ' '  old  St.  James'  "  at  a  time  when  the  Ogden  family  were  prominent  members  of  that 
congregation.  Bishop  McLaren  was  present,  but  being  ill,  took  no  part  in  the  services. 
Bishop  Clarkson  paid  a  glowing  tribute  to  the  worth  of  Mr.  Ogden,  the  high  position  he  had 
held  in  the  development  of  the  city,  and  the  great  loss  sustained  by  the  people  of  Chicago. 
The  pall-bearers  were  Messrs.  E.  C.  Lamed,  Henry  W.  King,  E.  Y.  Watkins,  W.  H.  Bradley, 
George  M.  Higginson,  E.  S.  Chesbrough,  Judge  Thomas  Drummond  and  Hon.  Isaac  N. 
Arnold.  The  remains  were  deposited  in  the  family  vault  in  "Graceland, "  where  the  singing 
of  "Nearer,  my  God,  to  Thee,"  "Rock  of  Ages,"  and  "Lead,  Kindly  Light,"  ended  the 
solemn  and  impressive  services.

Emily  Butler  Ogden'583  was  born  in  Walton,  N.  Y.,  and  had  the  advantages  of  the 
educational  institutions  of  her  early  life.  As  might  be  expected  of  one  of  the  ancestry  from 
which  she  descended,  she  well  maintained  the  standard  of  a  clear,  firm  mind  and  a  strong 
character  which  distinguished  the  Ogden  family  for  centuries,  and  of  which  she  and  all  her 
sisters  and  brothers  were  remarkable  examples. 

She  was  a  woman  of  splendid  presence,  and  possessed  the  highest  type  of  the  social 
and  Christian  graces.  She  was  eminently  high-minded  and  right-minded  in  all  her  relations 
in  life,  was  respected  by  all  who  knew  her,  and  was  best  loved  and  appreciated  by  those  who 
knew  her  best.  She  was  the  type  of  all  that  is  finest  in  woman,  and  was  so  wise  and  calm 
in  her  judgment,  that  her  decision  on  any  subject  was  never  disputed  by  any  of  her  family. 
She  was  noted  throughout  all  her  large  family  connection  for  her  wonderful  control  of 
children,  all  obeying  her  immediately,  and  without  any  punishment.  Her  brother-in-law, 
Mr.  Butler,  who  knew  her  intimately  for  fifty-seven  years,  said  her  self-control  was  so  great 
that  he  had  never  known  her  to  speak  sharply  or  impatiently. 

Emily  Butler  Ogden's  strength  of  judgment  and  poise  of  character  are  readily  ex- 
plained by  that  dominant  factor  of  her  ancestry — strength  of  intellect.  It  is  an  interesting 
fact,  and  illustrative  of  hereditary  law,  that  an  unusual  number  of  the  descendants  of  John 
Ogden,  of  Elizabethtown,  were  teachers,  lawyers,  judges,  governors,  military  men,  and  state 
and  national  legislators;  all  the  learned  professions  have  been  well  represented.  In  peace 
and  in  war,  they  have  always  been  found  in  the  fore-rank,  maintaining  their  strong  intel- 
lectual, social  and  moral  prestige. 

Judge  Nelson  Knox  Wheeler  was  the  eldest  son  of  William  Wheeler,  of  New 
London,  Conn.,  and  Eleanor  Knox,  his  wife,  of  Blanford,  Mass.,  daughter  of  William  Knox, 
and  granddaughter  of  Capt.  William  Knox,  of  the  war  of  the  Revolution.  Gen.  Henry 
Knox,  of  Revolutionary  fame,  was  of  the  same  family. 

Nelson  Knox  Wheeler  was  born  in  Blanford,  Mass.,  and  when  six  weeks  old  the 
parents  removed  to  Partridge  Id.,  on  the  east  branch  of  the  Delaware  River,  the  babe  Nelson 
being  carried  by  his  mother  on  horseback  the  entire  150  miles  to  the  town  of  Hancock,  N.  Y. 
The  hills  of  the  Delaware  surrounding  their  forest  home  were  covered  by  a  dense  growth 
of  heavy  pine  timber,  and  here  the  father  engaged  in  the  manufacture  of  lumber  and  the 
running  of  rafts  to  the  Philadelphia  market.  After  a  residence  of  about  ten  years  in  Hancock, 
the  family  removed  northward  to  Deposit,  Delaware  Co.,  N.  Y.,  in  the  year  1814,  where  Mr. 
Wheeler  united  with  William  Butler  and  Silas  Crandall  in  buying  the  entire  tract  of  land 
comprising  the  present  portion  of  Deposit  lying  in  Broome  Co.,  a  few  village  lots  having 
been  previously  purchased.  The  west  boundary  line  described  in  the  deed  of  conveyance 
was  "a  line  of  marked  trees"  and  now  the  county  line  in  the  village  between  Delaware  and 
Broome  Counties. 

There  were  few  inhabitants  in  Deposit  at  that  early  day.  There  was  one  public  house 
or  "tavern, "  one  or  two  stores,  one  school-house,  but  no  church.  It  was  here  at  the  district 
school  that  Nelson  K.  Wheeler  began  his  education.  In  due  time  he  and  his  older  sister 
were  sent  to  an  academy  at  Oxford,  Chenango  Co.,  for  one  year.  From  Oxford,  he  entered 
the  Cortland  Academy,  Homer,  N.  Y.,  where  he  prepared  for  college.  Thence  he  entered 
Hamilton  College  one  year  in  advance  and  remained  two  years,  when  he  matriculated  at 
Union  College,  and  graduated  in  1828. 

Having  chosen  the  legal  profession,  he  studied  law  in  the  office  of  Samuel  Sherwood, 
Esq.,  in  Delhi,  N.  Y.,  and  began  its  practice  there  in  1832  in  partnership  with  the  Hon. 
Noadiah  Johnson,  who  was  then  a  Member  of  Congress.  After  the  death  of  Mr.  Johnson, 
he  formed  a  partnership  with  his  brother,  Truman  H.  Wheeler,  Esq.,  under  the  law  firm  of 
"N.  K.  &  T.  H.  Wheeler,"  which  existed  until  1849. 

Nelson  Knox  Wheeler  was  married  to  Emily  Butler  Ogden"s8a  in  Walton,  N.  Y., 
by  the  Rev.  Mr.  Maxwell,  of  the  Scotch  Pres.  Church  of  Delhi.  The  accompanying  illus-

trations  are  of  the  quaint  doorway  and  hall  of  the  Walton  house  and  of  the  old  Colonial 
mantel  and  closet  of  the  room  in  which  the  marriage  ceremony  was  performed.  They 
established  their  home  in  Delhi,  where  two  sons  and  three  daughters  were  born  to  them, 


and  in 


they  removed  to    Deposit 


Here  they  resided  upon  a  large  estate  they 
named  "Laurel  Bank  Farm,"  and  the  two 
youngest  children,  daughters,  were  added  to 
the   household. 

While  in  Delhi,  Mr.  Wheeler  was  for  one 
term  District  Attorney  of  the  county,  and  was 
Judge  and  Surrogate  one  term.  He  was  the 
first  Judge  of  the  Court  of  Common  Pleas  under 
the  old  system,  and  during  his  incumbency 
occurred  the  notorious  "Anti-rent  "  troubles 
of  the  county.  He  was  twice  elected  member 
of  the  State  Legislature,  and  served  with  dis- 
tinction. 

In  1865  he  went  west  to  attend  to  the 
foreclosure  of  a  railroad  mortgage  in  Illinois 
and  Wisconsin,  and  to  take  part  in  the  reor- 
ganizing of  the  Chicago,  St.  Paul  &  Fond  du  Lac 
R.R.  Co.  After  spending 
a  few  years  in  the  West, 
he  returned  to  his  family 
in  Deposit.  He  still  re- 
tained his  law  practice, 
but  his  time  was  largely 
employed  in  the  super- 
vision of  his  extensive 
farm  lands.  He  later 
accepted  the  office  of 
Deputy  Collector  of  Cus- 
toms in  New  York  City, 
under  Collector  Hiram 
Barney,  which  office  he 
held  for  several  years, 
and  until  appointed  by 
the  Mayor  and  Board  of 
Aldermen  of  New  York  as  Police  Justice  for  a  term  of  ten  years,  commencing  Jan.  1,  1874. 
He  held  this  office  to  the  time  of  his  death,  Sept.  21,  1880.  He  wasjnterred  in  Laurel  Hill 
Cemetery,  Deposit,  N.  Y.

NO.    2971,   WILLIAM    OGDEN    WHEELER. 

William  Ogden  Wheeler'"'  was  born  in  Delhi,  Delaware  Co.,  N.  Y.,  Oct.  14,  1837, 
and  died  in  New  York  City,  Jan.  27,  1900. 

When  about  twelve  years  of  age,  his  parents  removed  from  Delhi  to  Deposit,  in  the 
same  county,  where  the  family  had  long  held  large  landed  possessions;  his  grandfather, 
William  Wheeler,  having  been  one  of  three  purchasers  of  a  large  tract  of  forest  land,  the 
western  boundary  of  which  is  described  in  the  deed  as  "a  line  of  marked  trees,"  and  which 
afterward  became  the  dividing  line  between  Broome  and  Delaware  Counties.  A  portion  of 
this  original  purchase  has  ever  since  been  in  the  possession  of  the  family. 

Deposit,  the  Indian  name  of  which  is  "  Oquaga, "  was  originally  in  Delaware  County, 
a  part  of  the  village  also  being  in  Broome ;  the  population  having  increased  more  rapidly 
in  the  latter,  it  is  now  officially  called  in  Broome  Co. 

Here  the  early  years  of  William  O.  Wheeler  were  passed.  His  health,  always  delicate, 
deprived  him  of  his  full  share  of  the  enjoyments  common  to  that  delightful  period  of  life. 
He  loved  to  excel  in  any  sport  or  undertaking,  and  doubtless  the  fact  that  he  could  not  fully 
join  in  the  rough-and-tumble  sports  of  his  more  robust  companions  caused  him  many  un- 
happy hours.  This  love  of  excellence  seems  to  have  been  born  in  him  and  to  have  followed 
him  through  life.  Anything  that  was  worth  doing  at  all,  was  with  him  worth  doing  well, 
and  he  had  little  patience  with  any  one  who  attempted  to  excuse  half-way  work  of 
any  kind. 

Delicate  health  also  deprived  him  of  the  advantages  of  a  college  education ;  but  private 
tutors,  a  love  for  reading,  keen  powers  of  observation,  and  a  wonderfully  retentive  memory 
so  made  up  for  this,  that  it  was  never  missed. 

When  about  twenty  years  of  age  he  for  a  time  managed  his  father's  farm,  "Laurel 
Bank,"  but  this  not  proving  a  congenial  occupation,  he  went  to  Chicago  and  entered  the 
employ  of  his  uncle,  William  B.  Ogden" 578.  About  this  time  Mr.  Ogden  had  purchased  the 
residence  near  High  Bridge,  N.  Y.,  known  as  "Villa  Boscobel, "  on  which  he  contemplated 
making  alterations  and  improvements.  This  work  he  entrusted  to  his  nephew,  William 
Ogden  Wheeler,  and  the  result  was  another  proof  of  the  far-sightedness  of  that  far-sighted 
man.  Mr.  Wheeler  found  this  work  thoroughly  congenial,  and  his  natural  taste  for 
landscape  gardening  was  fully  gratified  in  seeing  the  results  of  his  own  planning  develop  into 
the  thing  of  beauty  which  "Boscobel"  became. 

After  the  completion  of  this  work,  Mr.  Wheeler  travelled  for  a  number  of  years, 
visiting  other  countries,  as  well  as  becoming  better  acquainted  with  his  own.  In  1882  he 
purchased  the  Judge  Sterling  property  in  Sharon,  Conn.,  which,  after  improving  and 
beautifying,  he  named  "Sterling  Elm,  "  in  honor  of  the  magnificent  elm  tree  standing  guard 
at  the  entrance, — one  of  the  largest,  if  not  the  largest  and  most  beautiful  elm  in  the  state 
of  Connecticut. 

Here  he  delighted  to  entertain  his  friends  and  acquaintances.  On  one  occasion,  when 
General  Sherman  was  to  be  his  guest,  he  invited  his  neighbors  to  come  and  shake  the 
General  by  the  hand,  an  invitation  that  was  accepted  not  only  by  his  Sharon  neighbors, 
but  by  those  from  adjoining  towns.  Hundreds  were  present,  yet  such  an  adept  in  the  art 
of  entertaining  was  Mr.  Wheeler,  that  the  affair  passed  off  without  a  hitch.  Every  grade 
of  society  was  represented,  and  perhaps  Mr.  Wheeler's  faculty  for  making  all  in  his 
house  feel  equally  at  home  was  never  more  severely  tested,  yet  each  one  at  parting  was 
made  to  feel  that  he  had  done  his  host  a  personal  favor  by  partaking  of  his  hospitality  and 
helping  him  make  the  visit  of  his  illustrious  guest  a  pleasant  one.

€^c  £>gDcn  family 


For  several  years  before  his  death,  William  B.  Ogden  had  interested  himself  in  gene- 
alogy, intending  to  trace  his- family  back  to  the  original  immigrant.  Being  a  very  busy  man 
it  was  more  in  the  nature  of  recreation  with  him  than  otherwise ;  yet  his  wide  acquaintance 
gave  him  an  advantage  that  enabled  him  to  gather  a  mass  of  genealogical  information,  only 
to  be  lost  forever  at  the  burning  of  his  Chicago  home  at  the  time  of  the  great  fire  there.  A 
few  notes,  mostly  made  from  memory,  were  all  that  remained  at  the  time  of  his  death  in  1877. 

With  this  slender  genealogical  capital  as  his  only  stock  in  trade,  Mr.  Wheeler  now  set 
out  to  complete  the  work  his  uncle  had  begun, — that  of  making  an  Ogden  Genealogy  that 
should  begin  with  the  founder  of  the  family  in  America,  and  end  with  the  latest  known 
descendant.  It  is  doubtful  if  he  realized  the  magnitude  of  this  self-imposed  task,  and  yet 
he  may  have,  for  as  difficulties  began  to  develop  he  seemed  the  more  determined  to  over- 
come them.  That  nothing  might  stand  in  the  way,  he  gave  up  his  home  in  Sharon  to  his 
sister,  Mrs.  A.  C.  McClurg,  and  opened  an  office  in  Morristown,  N.  J.,  which  seemed  to  be 
the  most  advantageous  point  to  work  from.  He  now  gave  his  own  time  to  tabulating  the 
results  of  searches  made  under  his  direction,  not  only  in  the  States,  but  in  Canada  as  well; 
also  some  correspondence  was  had  with  searchers  in  England.  No  expense  was  spared,  and 
no  amount  of  time  or  effort  was  considered  too  great  to  accomplish  what  he  had  undertaken. 

His  perseverance  and  patience  were  a  revelation  to  those  employed  by  him  in  the  work. 
When  a  searcher  came  in  empty-handed,  as  was  often  the  case,  he  would  say  in  his  cheery 
way:  "The  next  best  thing  to  finding  what  you  are  looking  for,  is  to  find  out  where  it  cannot 
be  found;  it  narrows  the  search  just  that  much." 

While  the  Ogden  work  was  under  way,  Mrs.  Tiffany,  Mr.  Wheeler's  sister,  became 
interested  in  tracing  the  ancestry  of  her  grandmother,  Eleanor  (Knox)  Wheeler.  This  he 
found  time  to  assist  her  in,  and  succeeded  in  tracing  the  line  back  to  William  Knox, 
brother  of  John  Knox,  the  reformer.  It  was  Mr.  Wheeler's  intention  to  follow  out  and 
complete  this  line  as  soon  as  the  Ogden  work  was  done.  But  while  "Man  proposes,  God 
disposes."  His  health,  never  of  the  best,  began  to  give  way.  Several  years  of  steady 
application  to  this  brain-racking  work  had  so  impaired  his  nervous  system,  that  symptoms 
began  to  develop  which  he  dared  not  disregard. 

Reluctantly  he  left  his  work  to  another,  and  spent  a  winter  in  the  South.  For  several 
years  he  had  been  practically  homeless,  and  he  began  to  feel  that  home  was  the  place  for 
him  now.  Accordingly  he  purchased  the  so-called  Taylor  property  in  Sharon,  adjoin- 
ing "Sterling  Elm"  on  the  north,  to  which,  after  some  necessary  repairs  and  alterations, 
he  came  and  settled  down  for  rest  and  recuperation.  But  the  spirit  was  upon  him ;  he  wanted 
to  be  in  closer  touch  with  the  work.  The  office  in  Morristown  was  closed  and  the  work 
continued  in  Sharon,  mostly  by  letter,  often  from  dictation,  and  always  by  his  direction, 
up  to  the  day  of  his  going  to  New  York  City  to  attend  the  funeral  of  his  sister,  Mrs.  Tiffany, 
a  journey  from  which  he  never  returned.  In  a  few  short  weeks  both  brother  and  sister 
were  sleeping  in  beautiful  Woodlawn  Cemetery,  there  to  rest  "until  the  day  dawns,  and  the 
shadows  flee  away." 

Thus  in  brief  outline  is  the  life  of  William  Ogden  Wheeler  traced.  The  character 
of  the  man,  that  which  endeared  him  to  so  many,  and  which  caused  such  sincere  mourning 
when  he  died,  has  hardly  been  touched  upon,  nor  can  it  be  more  than  touched  upon  in 
the  space  of  an  article  like  this.  The  obligations  under  which  he  has  placed  the  Ogdens  and 
allied  families  in  rescuing  their  history  from  fast  perishing  records,  and  placing  them  in 
permanent  form  for  preservation  can  neither  be  estimated  nor  appreciated.  Beginning  at 
a  time  when  genealogical  pursuits  had  only  begun  to  excite  the  interest  they  have  since 
attained,  he  found  little  to  encourage,  and  much  to  discourage  him  from  persevering  as  he 
did.  It  was  his  beloved  mother's  ancestry  he  was  tracing.  His  mother's  brother,  William 
B.  Ogden,  whom  he  also  loved  and  honored,  had  begun  it,  when  death  cut  short  his  efforts. 
It  seemed  left  to  Mr.  Wheeler  to  carry  the  work  forward,  or  it  might  never  be  done. 


€i($tl)  defeneration 


This  was  enough  for  him  to  know.  It  was  his  work  now,  and  he  did  it,  and  doubtless  he 
shortened  his  life  in  the  doing  of  it. 

This  was  one  characteristic  of  William  O.  Wheeler, — to  do  with  his  might  whatever 
he  believed  was  his  to  do.  Another  characteristic,  and  one  which  so  wound  itself  about 
all  others  that  it  can  hardly  be  treated  by  itself,  was  his  affectionate  nature.  His  love  for 
his  friends  was  a  ruling  passion  with  him.  Mention  has  already  been  made  of  his  fondness 
for  entertaining,  a  thing  commonly  done  for  the  pleasure  derived  from  doing  it.  Not  so 
with  Mr.  Wheeler.  One  who  knew  him  well  can  testify,  he  was  never  happier  than  when 
planning  happiness  for  others,  and  the  better  he  succeeded  in  doing  this,  the  greater  was  the 
satisfaction  he  derived  from  it.  In  all  this  he  was  ably  seconded  by  his  personal  attendant, 
Peter  Rasmussen,  a  giant  in  stature,  with  a  heart  in  proportion  to  his  size,  and  almost  as 
widely  known  as  Mr.  Wheeler  himself. 

Mr.  Wheeler's  condition  of  health  demanded  just  such  service  as  Peter  could  give; 
strong  of  heart  as  well  as  of  hand  and  withal  as  gentle  as  a  little  child,  his  equal  in  the  sick- 
room was  difficult  to  find.  His  attachment  for  Mr.  Wheeler  was  phenomenal,  and  so 
necessary  to  each  had  the  other  become,  that  nothing  short  of  the  death  of  one  or  the 
other  was  expected  to  part  them.  Yet  when  loved  friends  came  to  need  such  care  as  Peter 
was  peculiarly  fitted  to  bestow,  he  was  allowed  to  go  and  to  remain  as  long  as  earthly  assist- 
ance was  of  use  to  that  friend. 

To  illustrate  the  unselfish  kindness  of  Mr.  Wheeler,  one  incident  of  many  known 
to  the  writer  may  be  mentioned.  Two  old  ladies  of  education  and  refinement,  but  whose 
income  called  for  the  closest  economy,  were  invited  to  spend  a  summer  at  his  home 
in  Sharon.  Knowing  their  aversion  to  accepting  charity,  he  so  disguised  the  invita- 
tion that  it  had  the  appearance  of  a  business  proposition.  Mr.  Wheeler  had  to  go  away 
for  the  summer,  and  would  they  do  him  the  favor  of  coming  to  Sharon  and  keeping  his 
horses  exercised  and  entertaining  any  who  might  call  during  his  absence?  They  accepted 
the  invitation  and  spent  a  summer  full  of  enjoyment,  such  as  they  had  long  been  strangers 
to.  They  drove  all  about  the  country,  entertained  and  were  entertained,  made  many 
pleasant  acquaintances,  and  whatever  thoughts  they  may  have  had  of  the  future,  they  did 
not  allow  them  to  sadden  the  joys  of  the  present.  They  were  children  again,  without  a 
care  in  the  world,  happy  in  the  thought  they  were  doing  their  good  friend  a  kindness,  and 
without  a  suspicion  that  their  good  friend  was  knocking  about  from  place  to  place,  waiting 
for  the  time  when  he  could  return  to  his  own  comfortable  home  without  cutting  short  the 
happy  times  they  were  having.  When  Mr.  Wheeler  returned,  and  the  old  ladies  went  back, 
it  was  to  a  home  made  brighter,  not  alone  by  recollections  of  the  delightful  outing  they 
had  enjoyed,  but  by  a  substantial  sum  of  money  which  he  insisted  was  only  a  fair  equiva- 
lent for  the  service  they  had  rendered. 

There  are  many  charitable  people,  many  whose  hearts  go  out  to  those  who  suffer  and 
are  in  need,  but  there  are  few  who  put  themselves  to  personal  inconvenience  in  order  that 
others  may  be  happy  and  comfortable. 

Instances  like  the  foregoing  are  many,  though  this  is  the  only  one  it  seems  best  to  men- 
tion. What  he  did  was  done  in  a  manner  to  attract  the  least  notice  to  himself,  and  yet  give 
the  greatest  comfort  to  those  benefited  by  his  generosity.  It  is  only  fair  to  state,  however, 
that  this  trait  was  inherited,  and  is  one  for  which  the  family  have  been  noted  for  generations, 
though  perhaps  none  ever  carried  it  to  finer  points  than  he. 

His  charity  did  not  take  the  form  of  endowing  churches  or  colleges,  nor  is  it  known 
that  he  gave  to  foreign  missions.  He  chose  to  relieve  present  needs  rather  than  to  provide 
for  possible  needs  of  the  future,  and  in  so  doing  he  many  times  accomplished  both. 

In  writing  a  biography  of  Mr.  Wheeler,  one  is  hampered  by  the  recollection  of  his 
aversion  to  having  his  acts  of  charity  spoken  of.  Otherwise  many  things  could  be  mentioned 
that  would  clearly  show  the  unselfish  nature  of  all  his  charitable  acts.     In  his  own  quiet

way  he  sought  opportunities  of  sharing  with  those  less  fortunate  the  benefits  wealth  had 
bestowed  upon  him.  How  many  hearts  he  made  happier,  and  how  many  burdens  he  made 
lighter  may  never  be  known.  His  most  intimate  friends  knew  only  by  chance,  for  he  ful- 
filled the  injunction,  "Let  not  thy  left  hand  know  what  thy  right  hand  doeth. " 

If  this  book  had  been  finished  in  his  day  little,  if  any,  mention  would  have  been  found 
in  it  of  his  long  and  patient  labor  upon  it,  which  it  is  now  the  writer's  happy  privilege  to

"Mr.  Edwin  H.  Sheldon,  who  died  on  Thursday,  Dec.  18,  1890,  at  the  house  of  his 
niece,  293  Madison  Ave.,  in  the  sixty-eighth  year  of  his  age,  was  born  in  Delhi,  Delaware  Co., 
N.  Y.  He  there  studied  law  in  the  office  of  Erastus  Root,  an  eminent  lawyer  and  politician, 
and  was  admitted  to  the  bar. 

"He  married  the  youngest  daughter  of  Mr.  Abraham  Ogden,  of  Walton,  N.  Y.,  and  in 
1849  removed  with  her  to  Chicago,  where  he  became  associated  with  his  brother-in-law, 
the  late  Mr.  William  B.  Ogden,  in  the  large  land  office  still  existing  under  the  name  of 
Ogden,  Sheldon  &  Co. 

"He  always  took  an  active  interest  in  the  moral  as  well  as  the  material  interests  of 
his  adopted  city,  where  his  integrity  and  capability  in  business  brought  him  into  many 
positions  of  responsibility  and  trust. 

"His  purity  of  character  and  good  judgment,  combined  with  a  genial  disposition,  and 
refined  tastes  which  gave  him  unfailing  enjoyment  in  nature  and  books,  made  him  a  delight- 
ful and  valued  companion." 

He  built  a  beautiful  memorial  chapel  at  Delhi,  N.  Y.  (St.  John's  Prot.  Episcopal),  as 
a  tribute  to  the  worth  of  his  parents.      It  was  dedicated  May  23,  1890,  by  the    Bishop   of

Piiebe  (Stansbury,  Chapman)  Kilbourne  "S93  was  born  in  Morristown,  N.  J.,  and  was  an 
only  child.  In  1810,  and  when  she  was  12  years  of  age,  her  father  sold  his  farm  and  invested 
the  proceeds  in  heavily-timbered  land  near  Worthington,  O.  It  was  here  she  was  married 
to  Roswell  R.  Chapman,  by  whom  she  bore  5  children.  Her  second  husband,  Dr.  Arius 
Kilbourne.  was  a  dentist,  and  also  of  Worthington,  but  originally  from  Connecticut.  After 
the  latter's  death  she  resided  with  her  son,  Albert  S.  Chapman,  in  Marysville,  O.,  where  she 
spent  the  last  two  and  a  half  years  of  her  life,  dying  of  dropsy  of  the  heart.  She  was  "a 
highly  esteemed  member  of  the  Presbyterian  Church,  and  her  daily  walk  verified  her  Christian 
life.  Mrs.  Kilbourne  was  a  lady  of  uncommon  vitality,  having  never  been  sick  a  day 
till  her  last  sickness.  She  was  one  of  the  old  pioneers  who  witnessed  the  turning  of  the

1792.  Samuel  Edison,  Jr.  (Samuel7SI,  Sarah  Ogden367,  Samuel6", 
Swaine13,  David3,  John1),  b.  Aug.  16,  1804;  d.  Feb.  26,  1896;  istm.  Sept.  12, 
1828,  Nancy  Elliott,  b.  Jan.  4,  1810;  d.  Apr.  9,  1871;  2d  m.  Mary 
Sharlow,  b.  Feb.  12,  1854. 

Samuel  Edison,  Jr. '792,  came  of  good  old  Dutch  stock,  his  ancestry  being  traced  back 
for  200  years,  when  they  were  extensive  millers  in  Holland.  Members  of  the  family  emigrated 
to  America  in  1730,  and  settled  in  New  Jersey  and  on  Manhattan  Island.  One  Thomas 
Edison  was  a  prominent  banker  in  New  York  during  the  Revolution,  and  his  name  appears 
on  the  Continental  money  of  that  period.  The  Edisons  are  a  long-lived  family,  and  of  strong, 
athletic  build.  Samuel  Edison,  Jr.,  was  6  ft.  2  in.  in  height,  and  in  1868,  when  64  yrs.  old, 
outjumped  250  men  belonging  to  a  regiment  stationed  at  Ft.  Gratiot,  Mich.  His  father 
lived  to  be  98  yrs.  of  age,  and  his  grandfather  died  at  102. 

Samuel  Edison,  Jr.""3,  was  born  in  Digby,  Nova  Scotia,  his  father's  family  having 
moved  from  New  Jersey  when  the  father,  Samuel,  Sr.,  was  a  lad.  In  early  life  Samuel,  Jr., 
removed  to  Canada,  where  he  remained  until  the  rebellion  of  1838;  he  then  removed  to 
Michigan,  and  lived  in  Detroit  one  year,  subsequently  going  to  Ohio,  where  he  lived  until 
1S52.  Thence  he  returned  to  Michigan  and  took  up  a  permanent  residence  at  Port  Huron. 
He  had  learned  the  tailor's  trade,  but  later  entered  commercial  life,  and  engaged  consecu- 
tively in  the  grain,  commission,  lumber,  nursery,  and  land  businesses.  He  was  associated 
with  Mr.  G.  W.  Halfman,  a  chemist,  in  the  manufacture  of  laundry  and  toilet  soaps,  baking 
powders,  flavoring  extracts,  etc.,  their  manufactory  being  known  as  the  "Fidelity  Chemical 
Works."  He  was  a  man  of  fertile  resources  and  of  great  energy  of  character;  hence  he 
readily  obtained  a  competency.  Besides,  he  was  a  man  of  much  intelligence,  and  for  many 
years  held  the  office  of  a  magistrate. 

His  remarkable  energy  and  activity  are  demonstrated  in  the  following  pleasing  incident : 
About  the  year  1889,  and  when  85  years  of  age,  he  wished  to  visit  Europe.  His  son,  Thomas 
A.  Edison,  the  famous  electrician,  gave  him  a  letter  of  credit  for  $1,500,  and  the  old  gentle- 
man, accompanied  by  a  chum  65  yrs.  old,  whom  he  called  "The  Boy,  "  sailed  away,  expecting 
to  be  gone  but  a  few  weeks.  They  were  gone  over  four  months,  visiting  England,  Scotland, 
Ireland,  France,  Germany,  and  Holland,  travelling  on  foot  much  of  the  way.  They  reached 
home  safely,  reporting  excellent  health  and  an  enjoyable  trip. 

His  advanced  age  finally  brought  its  attendant  weakness,  and  while  en  route  to 
Ft.  Myers,  Fla.,  his  son's  winter  residence,  he  died  at  the  home  of  his  niece,  Mrs.  Poyen, 
at  Norwalk,  O.    He  was  buried  at  Port  Huron,  Mich.,  his  old  home. 

Nancy  (Elliott)  Edison,  his  wife,  was  of  Scotch  descent,  and  was  a  native  of  Chenango 
Co.,  N.  Y.  She  was  well  educated,  and  for  several  years  taught  in  a  Canadian  high  school. 
"She  was  an  industrious,  capable,  literary  and  ambitious  woman."

dau.  of  Louis  Miller,  Pres.  of  Chautauqua  University. 

Thomas  Alva  Edison32I4  was  born  at  Milan,  Erie  Co.,  O.,  and  when 
seven  years  old  his  family  moved  to  Port  Huron,  Mich.,  where  the  remainder 
of  his  boyhood  was  passed.  While  a  mere  lad  he  started  in  business  as  a 
newsboy  on  the  Grand  Trunk  Railway.  In  1862  he  published  a  weekly, 
called  the  Grand  Trunk  Herald,  and  did  the  printing  in  a  freight  car,  which 
also  served  the  youth  as  a  laboratory  for  experimental  purposes.  A  bottle 
of  sulphuric  acid  was  accidentally  broken,  and  the  irate  conductor  struck 
young  Edison  on  the  ear,  causing  serious  and  permanent  deafness.  For 
saving  the  child  of  a  station-master  from  being  run  down  by  a  train,  the 
father  taught  him  telegraphy  in  return  at  Mount  Clemens.  He  became 
a  brilliant  and  rapid  operator,  and  soon  made  his  first  important  invention, 
an  automatic  transmitter  of  a  message.  From  the  West  he  went  to  Boston, 
where  he  invented  the  vote-recorder.  For  valuable  inventions  in  stock- 
printing  in  connection  with  the  Gold  and  Stock  Telegraph  Co.  of  New  York, 
he  received  $40,000,  which  enabled  him  to  build  a  permanent  laboratory  for 
experimental  purposes. 

His  crowning  achievement  in  telegraphy  was  the  quadruplex  system 
that  followed  his  duplex.  Among  his  other  great  electrical  inventions  are  the 
microphone,  the  carbon  transmitter,  and  the  phonograph  (1878).  The  most 
used  of  his  inventions  is  the  incandescent  light,  brought  out  in  1879.  He 
built  his  laboratory  at  Orange,  N.  J.,  in  1886,  where  his  later  experiments 
have  been  conducted,  and  the  kinetoscope  was  made  a  commercial  success. 

Mr.  Edison  has  received  many  honors  at  international  expositions  and 
from  foreign  governments,  among  which  are  his  appointment  as  a  chevalier 
of  the  Legion  of  Honor  from  France  in  1878,  and  as  a  commander  in  1889. 
In  1892  he  received  the  Albert  Medal  of  the  Society  of  Arts  of  Great  Britain. 
His  power  of  concentration  and  continued  effort  have  been  marvelous, 
he  having,  during  fifteen  years,  worked  on  an  average  of  twenty  hours  a  day. 
His  patents  number  nearly  one  thousand.  His  ingenuity  in  triumphing 
over  seemingly  insurmountable  difficulties,  and  in  attaining  what  seemed 
quite  impossible,  has  secured  for  him  the  name  of  Wizard.  As  an  ingenious 
inventor  who  can  apply  scientific  truth  to  a  practical  end,  Mr.  Edison  truly 
stands  at  the  head.

member  of  the  wholesale  grocery  firm  of  Kinney  &  Ogden,  which  relation 
continued  till  the  early  part  of  the  Civil  War. 

In  1864,  he  was  with  Kercheval,  Kinney  &  Powell,  who,  with  600  head 
of  oxen  and  60  wagons,  loaded  with  groceries,  crossed  the  plains,  and  located 
at  Virginia  City,  Mont.,  the  firm  clearing  about  $150,000.  The  following 
year,  Mr.  Ogden  entered  the  firm  of  C.  D.  Smith  &  Co.,  a  grocery  jobbing 
house  in  St.  Joseph,  Mo.,  the  firm  later  becoming  Smith,  Kerr  &  Ogden. 
Mr.  Ogden  later  withdrew,  and  as  Buck  &  Ogden,  at  St.  Joseph,  engaged  in 
the  jobbing  of  hats.  He  established  a  number  of  retail  grocery  nouses  in  small 
towns  near  that  city,  and  was  with  the  one  at  Union  Star,  Mo.,  when  he  died. 

James  C.  Ogden3*34  was  an  excellent  business  man,  and  possessed 
a  remarkably  straightforward  religious  character.  "His  religion  was  always 
on  hand — week  days,  as  well  as  Sundays."

THE  JAMKS    KILBORN    OGDEN    FAMILY   TREE 


€tQl)tl)  (Bcncratton 


James  Kilborn  Ogden'»34  was  born  in  Elizabeth  town,  N.J.  In  the  spring  of  1814, 
and  when  21  years  of  age,  with  one  John  Baker,  he  left  home,  and  travelled  horseback  as 
far  west  as  Pittsburg.  Here  the  two  young  men  cut  trees  for  a  raft,  and  upon  it  floated 
down  the  Ohio  river,  landing  at  Cincinnati,  O.,  in  the  fall.  He  was  by  trade  a  potter,  and  at 
once  established  a  pottery,  the  first  west  of  the  Alleghanies.  He  was  a  man  of  sterling 
integrity,  possessed  great  business  capacity,  and  was  one  of  the  most  widely-known  men 
of  Cincinnati.  Successful  in  business,  he  acquired  much  wealth  for  the  day,  and  was, 
withal,  a  consistent  Christian  gentleman. 

The  golden  wedding  of  Mr.  Ogden  and  his  wife  was  celebrated  in  1868,  at  which  time 
their  children  presented  the  worthy  couple  with  an  oak  tree  wrought  in  gold,  a  reproduc- 
tion of  which  is  herewith  given.  The  golden  oak  is  about  ten  inches  high,  the  trunk  and 
three  main  branches  being  finely  engraved  to  closely  resemble  the  natural  oak  bark.  Each 
leaf  is  minutely  engraved,  and  each  acorn  bears  the  initials  of  a  member  of  the  family. 
The  base  is  an  irregular  circle,  about  nine  inches  across,  and  is  made  of  oxidized  silver. 
Upon  this  base  are  six  fallen  acorns,  each  one  engraved  with  the  name  of  a  deceased  mem- 
ber of  the  Ogden  family.  The  oak  is  inscribed  with  the  year  of  marriage,  1818.  The  scroll 
at  the  base  of  the  tree  bears  the  name  of  James  K.  Ogden,  with  birth  year,  1793,  and  year 
of  death,  1869.  The  gold  shield,  also  at  base  of  tree,  bears  the  names  of  James  K.  Ogden 
and  Margaret  H.  Ogden,  his  wife.  This  interesting  and  valuable  heirloom  is  now  in  the 
possession  of  Mr.  S.  Wyler,  dealer  in  antiques,  at  4  W.  28th  street,  New  York  City,  and 
should  be  secured  by  some  member  of  the  Ogden  family  who  appreciates  the  traditions  of 
a  worthy  ancestry.  CHILDREN  (Chart  5) :

C^c  £>gdcu  family 


John  OGDEN1839  was  born  in  Essex  Co.,  N.  J.  Beside  the  English  blood  inherited  from 
his  father's  side,  he  possessed  excellent  Scotch  blood  through  his  mother's  ancestry.  She 
was  descended  from  John  Magie,  who  was  banished  from  England  because  of  his  ultra  Protes- 
tantism during  the  reign  of  Queen  Elizabeth. 

John  Ogden  in  early  life  learned  the  trade  of  wagon-builder,  and  followed  that 
vocation  for  12  yrs.  He  then  engaged  in  mercantile  life  in  Elizabeth,  N.  J.,  where  he  remained 
for  4  yrs.  In  the  fall  of  1834  he  removed  to  Cincinnati,  O.,  and  in  the  spring  of  1835  he  went 
to  Chicago  and  attended  the  great  bond  sale  and  made  a  number  of  investments.  In  Sept., 
1835,  he  went  to  Milwaukee  and  bought  several  hundred  acres  of  land,  and  built  the  first 
tavern  for  public  entertainment  in  the  little  settlement.  It  was  a  small  log  structure  and 
was  located  at  the  old  mouth  of  the  river  in  the  Kinnickinnic  valley.  Four  years  later 
Mr.  Ogden  sold  it  to  a  man  living  on  the  east  side,  and  agreed  in  the  contract  of  sale  to 
deliver  the  building  to  the  purchaser.  To  his  surprise  he  could  find  no  man  who  would  under- 
take to  move  the  building.  He  thereupon  went  to  Chicago,  secured  two  scows,  and  success- 
fully moved  the  tavern  up  the  river,  to  the  amazement  of  the  natives. 

From  the  time  John  Ogdeni83s>  located  in  Milwaukee  as  a  pioneer  settler,  he  took  an 
active  part  in  religious  matters.  On  Apr.  11,  1837,  assisted  by  Moses  Ordway  and  the  Rev. 
Cutting  Marsh,  he  organized  the  first  Presbyterian  church  in  the  territory  of  Wisconsin. 
He  was  one  of  the  first  Elders,  and  was  later  ordained  a  Deacon.  This  First  Pres.  Church 
of  Milwaukee  was  afterward  consolidated  with  the  North  Pres.  Church,  becoming  known 
as  Immanuel  Pres.  Church. 

Mr.  Ogden  never  took  an  active  part  in  politics,  but  was  a  steadfast  Republican. 
During  territorial  times,  Governor  Doty  appointed  him  Justice  of  the  Peace. 

In  1843  he  established  the  first  carriage  manufactory  in  Milwaukee,  and  remained 
the  head  of  the  firm  until  1867,  when  he  was  succeeded  by  his  sons  under  the  firm  name 
of  G.  W.  Ogden  &  Co. 

He  died  at  his  residence  Jan.  23,  1891.  Had  he  lived  a  few  weeks  longer  he  would  have 
been  90  years  of  age.  His  health  gave  way  but  a  month  before  he  died.  Upright  in  his 
dealings,   and  of  sterling  religious  character,   his  honorable  career  ended  in  great  peace.

prises in  Cincinnati,  Indianapolis  and  Chicago,  in  which  he  was  eminently  successful.

the  weak  and  worthy,  and  especially  to  young  men  just  starting  in  business.     His  life  was

Richard  Sweasey  and  Hannah  Hayes,  his  wife. 

The  Rev.  Dr.  Joseph  M.  Ogden'84i  was  graduated  from  Princeton  College  in  1824. 
He  entered  the  Presbyterian  ministry,  and  was  installed  first  pastor  of  the  Pres.  Church 
of  Chatham,  N.  J.,  in  Nov.,  1828.  This  church  was  organized  Oct.  23,  1823,  and  the  Rev. 
Asa  Lyman,  of  Morristown,  N.J.,  became  its  stated  supply.  His  health  having  failed,  he 
was  compelled  to  resign  his  labors  in  1827,  and  the  congregation  called  the  Rev.  Dr.  Ogden 
to  become  their  settled  pastor.  The  original  house  of  worship  soon  became  inadequate  to 
accommodate  the  growing  congregation,  and  a  new  church  was  erected  in  1832.  This  build- 
ing was  subsequently  enlarged  and  beautified  in  1882,  the  efficient  labors  of  the  pastor, 
and  the  growing  regard  of  the  people  requiring  more  extended  accommodations.  Rev.  Dr. 
Joseph  M.  Ogden  ^41  was  not  only  popular  with  his  own  church  and  community,  but  was 
well  known  and  appreciated  throughout  the  state,  having  officiated  at  scores  of  weddings 
in  various  quarters.  He  resigned  his  church  at  Chatham,  Sept.  23,  1873,  having  enjoyed 
an  uninterrupted  and  successful  pastorate  of  45  years.  Both  pastor  and  wife  sleep  in  the 
church  burying-ground  at  Chatham.

had  been  pastor  for  45  yrs.,  opened  a  subscription  for  the  building  of  a  new- 
church.  After  securing  pledges  for  $6,000  they  approached  Mr.  Joseph  W. 
Ogden32ss,  who,  upon  scanning  the  list  of  subscribers,  said,  "I  will  tell  you 
what  I  will  do.  If  you  will  take  this  list  back  and  get  the  men  and  women 
whose  names  it  bears  to  withdraw  their  subscriptions,  I  will  provide  all 
the  money  required  to  build  the  church."  The  descendants  of  William  C. 
Wallace,  who  was  born  the  same  year  as  the  Rev.  Dr.  Ogden'84i,  who  grad- 
uated in  the  same  class  at  college,  and  was  his  lifelong  friend  and  parishioner, 
requested  that  they  be  permitted  to  provide  the  funds  for  the  interior 
decoration.  Mr.  Ogden  accepted  the  proposition,  and  the  trustees  decided 
to  change  the  name  of  the  church  to  the  Ogden  Memorial.

Jonathan  Ogden'843  began  his  life-work  in  Essex  Co.,  New  Jersey,  but  in  early  man-  ' 
hood  joined  his  two  brothers  John'839  and  Samuel'S-to  in  removing  to  Cincinnati,  O.,  which 
was  ever  afterward  his  home.  He  was  successful  as  a  business  man,  and  was  widely  known 
and  esteemed.  He  was  within  a  few  days  of  his  81st  birthday  when  he  died  at  the  home  of 
his  daughter,  Mrs.  Philip  D.  Armour,  in  Chicago,  while  the  latter  was  travelling  with  her 
husband  in  Europe.  An  obituary  notice  in  a  current  newspaper  ended  with  these  words: 
"The  late  Jonathan  Ogden  was  a  man  of  blameless  life.  Throughout  all  its  relations,  he 
was  a  modest,  quiet  gentleman,  genial  in  disposition,  sincere  in  his  friendship,  and  honorable 
in  all  his  business  transactions.  After  more  than  fifty  years  of  residence  in  this  community, 
he  has  passed  away  without  an  enemy,  and  sank  peacefully  to  rest  from  old  age,  upon  his 
Redeemer's  bosom.  The  life  of  such  a  man  is  a  daily  example  of  rectitude  to  the  oncoming 
generation.  "  CHILDREN  (Chart  5) :

elected  to  many  responsible  positions  in  civil  life,  both  before  and  after  his  removal  to  New 
Jersey.  He  was  a  ruling  Elder  in  the  Rockaway  Presbyterian  Church,  and  gave  the  land 
for  the  parsonage  at  Rockaway.  The  crowning  beauty  of  his  life  was  his  unblemished 
character,  and  at  his  death  the  very  appropriate  text  was  used:  "Sound  in  faith,  in 
charity,  in  patience.  "  CHILDREN  (Chart  29) :

wife,  of  Newark,  N.  J. 

Edmund  Drake  Halsey336*  was  of  the  eighth  generation  in  line  of 
descent  from  Thomas  Halsey,  Sr.,  the  Puritan  immigrant  of  Southampton, 
L.  I.  He  was  graduated  from  Princeton  College  in  i860,  and  for  two  years 
studied  law  in  Morristown,  N.  J.,  when  the  claims  of  his  country  prompted 
him  to  enlist  as  a  private  in  Co.  K.,  15th  Reg't,  N.  J.  Vols.  He  rose  rapidly 
in  rank,  being  promoted  Serg't-Major,  Second  Lieut.  Co.  F.,  and  First 
Lieut.  Co.  D.,  all  within  the  first  year  of  his  service.  Although  only  24  years 
of  age,  he  served  as  Judge  Advocate  of  courts-martial  almost  continuously 
in  1864.  He  participated  in  the  marches  and  engagements  of  his  regiment 
until  Jan.  12,  1865,  when  he  resigned  and  was  honorably  discharged  because 
of  broken  health,  which  he  never  fully  regained.  He  at  once  resumed  his 
law  studies,  and  was  admitted  as  an  attorney  in  Nov.  1865,  and  as  a  coun- 
selor in  Feb.,  1869. 

Mr.  Halsey's  early  life  revealed  a  nobility  of  soul,  purity  of  purpose 
and  integrity  of  conduct  that  shaped  his  entire  course  through  life.  This 
high  order  of  manhood  was  the  foundation  upon  which  he  rose  to  eminence 
in  professional  and  business  life.  It  made  him  the  trusted  friend  and  ad- 
viser of  persons  in  various  walks  in  life,  a  moving  spirit  in  charitable  enter- 
prises, and  a  bulwark  to  human  society.  An  entry  in  his  army  diary  made 
while  his  regiment  was  at  Brandy  Station  in  Apr.,  1864,  reveals  the  integrity 
and  intent  of  his  heart.  "There  has  been  quite  a  religious  feeling  throughout 
the  regiment  and,  as  you  may  say,  throughout  the  army,  of  late.  Next 
Sunday,  Alanson  proposes  to  hold  communion  and  to  receive  some  ten  or 
fifteen  into  the  Church.  Providence  permitting,  I  will  be  among  the  number, 
yielding  to  what  I  feel  to  be  my  duty,  and  hoping  that  such  a  step  may  add 
to  my  happiness  here  and  hereafter.  I  deeply  regret  not  having  done  it 
before."  By  "Alanson,"  he  meant  the  Rev.  Alanson  Haines,  Chaplain 
of  the  Reg't  and  a  relative.  His  after  religious  life  was  straightforward 
and  consistent,  and  for  more  than  29  years  he  was  a  Trustee  of  the  Rockaway 
Presbyterian  Church. 

Mr.  Halsey  became  known  throughout  the  state  as  a  cultured  gentle- 
man, an  able  lawyer,  and  a  prominent  man  in  public  and  business  affairs. 
A  biographer  says  of  him :  "He  was  a  man  of  unusual  culture  and  extensive 
learning  in  history  and  literature,  a  man  of  sound  judgment  and  clear  intel- 
lect, a  good  lawyer,  with  great  business  ability.  With  great  simplicity  and 
purity  of  character,  he  was  modest  and  unassuming;  seeking  no  advantage 
for  himself,  he  gave  himself  freely  for  others,  and  was  faithful  in  the  per- 
formance of  every  trust  and  every  duty.  Working  with  untiring  energy 
during  many  years  of  delicate  health,  he  filled  an  important  place  in  the 
community,  and  his  kindness,  generosity  and  devotion  to  others,  his  fidelity 
and  perfect  integrity,  made  him  respected  and  beloved  by  all." 

He  followed  his  legal  profession  in  Morristown  from  1865  until  his  death, 
having  been  engaged  in  much  important  litigation  concerning  the  water 
rights  of  the  Morris  Canal  and  Banking  Co.,  and  to  the  settlement  of  disputes 


cfiQlM  eventration 


titles  and  boundaries  between  important  mineral  properties 
of  Morris  Co.  The  latter  years  of  his  life  were  largely  employed  in  the  care 
of  estates  as  counsel  or  trustee.  He  was  many  years  a  Director,  and  from 
1894,  was  President  of  the  National  Iron  Bank;  was  Director  of  the  Morris- 
town  Gas  Light  Co.  and  a  Manager  of  the  Morris  Co.  Savings  Bank;  and 
for  1 7  years  a  member  of  the  Township  Committee  of  Rockaway.  In  politics 
he  was  an  ardent  Republican,  and  served  the  party  in  the  State  Legislature 
during  1875  and  1876.     He  was  a  member  of  the  Loyal  Legion  from  1888. 

Mr.  Halsey  was  especially  interested  in  researches  in  local  history. 
He  probably  knew  more  of  North  Jersey  in  regard  to  colonial  and  revolu- 
tionary events  than  any  other  one  man,  and  especially  the  early  history 
of  his  native  county,  which  he  had  given  special  study  from  boyhood.  His 
collection  of  books  and  early  documents  of  Morris  Co.  had  no  equal.  His 
favorite  study  was  genealogy,  in  which  he  had  few  peers,  and  "while  ardently 
pursuing  the  ancestral  lines  of  many  families,  he  derived  quite  as  much 
pleasure  in  giving  as  in  receiving  information."  His  chief  genealogical 
work  was  the  history  of  "Thomas  Halsey  and  His  Descendants  in  America," 
to  which  he  contributed  a  large  amount  of  original  matter.  He  was  more 
or  less  associated  for  several  years  with  Mr.  William  Ogden  Wheeler  in 
original  researches  for  this  "  Ogden  Genealogy,"  and  the  two  were  greatly 
attached  in  their  co-operative  labor  of  love.  He  also  was  Secretary  and 
then  Treasurer  of  the  Washington  Association  of  New  Jersey,  and  a  life 
member  of  the  New  York  and  the  New  Jersey  Historical  Society. 

Mr.  Halsey's  sympathetic  and  generous  nature  led  him  to  take  an 
active  part  in  private  and  public  benevolence,  and  to  ally  himself  with 
several  important  charitable  societies.  He  devoted  much  attention  to  the 
management  of  the  Morris  County  Children's  Home,  of  which  he  was  one 
of  the  original  trustees.  A  biographer  adds:  "His  was  an  active,  useful, 
noble  life,  and  his  departure  leaves  a  vacancy  that  can  never  be  filled.  The 
value  of  the  privilege  of  knowing  such  a  man  can  only  be  measured  by  the 
grief  one  feels  when  he  has  gone." 

His  death  came  as  a  sad  surprise  to  his  legion  of  friends.  The  funeral 
services  were  conducted  at  his  late  residence  in  Rockaway  by  his  pastor, 
Rev.  Thomas  A.  Reeves,  assisted  by  the  Rev.  William  M.  Pickslay,  of  St. 
John's  Church,  of  Dover.  The  pall-bearers  were  Vice-Chancellor  Pitney, 
Jonathan  W.  Roberts,  Mahlon  Hoagland,  Sr.,  John  J.  Norris,  John  B.  Byram 
and  Frederick  A.  Canfield.  There  was  a  large  attendance  of  the  leading 
men  of  the  state  and  members  of  the  bar.  The  interment  was  made  in  the 
family  lot  in  the  Rockaway  cemetery. 

At  a  meeting  of  the  members  of  the  Bar  of  Morris  Co.  held  in  the  court 
room  in  Morristown  to  take  formal  notice  of  Mr.  Halsey's  death,  Vice-Chan- 
cellor Pitney  presided.  Addresses  were  made  by  the  chairman,  Senator 
Vreeland,  Judge  Cutler,  Prosecutor  Salmon,  and  by  Messrs.  Alfred  Mills, 
James  H.  Neighbour,  John  F.  Stickle  and  H.  C.  Pitney,  Jr. 

The  Washington  Association  issued  the  following: 

"Headquarters, 

"Morristown,  N.  J.,  Oct.  21st,  1896. 

"Resolved:  That  in  the  removal  from  this  Jife  of  our  late  treasurer, 
trustee  and  associate,  Mr.  Edmund  D.  Halsey,  this  board  and  the  Washing- 
ton Association  of  New  Jersey  at  large,  have  sustained  a  very  great  loss.

"Mr.  Halsey,  in  the  noblest  and  best  sense  of  the  term,  was  an  'all 
around  man' — a  man  of  affairs,  wise,  sagacious,  honorable  and  faithful  in 
all  trusts,  public  and  private;  a  devoted  student  of  history,  taking  a  deep 
interest  in  the  past,  especially  of  that  relating  to  his  own  country. 

"His  life  and  character  were  so  transparent  to  all  who  knew  him  that 
no  eulogy  of  his  genial  qualities  and  sterling  worth  is  required  at  our  hands. 

"Resolved:  That  this  feeble  tribute  to  the  memory  of  our  dear  and 
esteemed  friend  be  recorded  upon  the  minutes  and  a  copy  of  the  same  be 
sent  to  his  family,  with  the  expression  of  our  heartfelt  sympathy  for  them 
in  their  great  sorrow  and  loss.

€tgl)tlj  defeneration 


Judge  Robert  Nash  Ogden2°4o  was  about  17  years  of  age  when  his  father,  Judge 
Robert  OgdenS82  (a  native  of  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.),  removed  his  law  practice  from  South 
Carolina  to  Louisiana.  Robert  Nash  Ogden2°4<»  was  graduated  from  Chapel  Hill,  N.C., 
and  became  one  of  the  most  brilliant  lawyers  of  the  Southern  bar.  He  was  joined  by  his 
younger  brother,  Judge  Abner  Nash  Ogden2°52,  in  a  law  partnership  at  Baton  Rouge,  La., 
where  the  law  firm  became  eminent  and  successful. 

Judge  Robert  Nash  Ogden  lived  in  the  palmiest  days  of  Southern  chivalry,  and  was 
in  every  sense  of  the  word  a  preux  chevalier,  "fighting  at  the  drop  of  a  hat,  and  if  need  be, 
dropping  the  hat  himself  if  the  subject  seemed  to  his  sense  of  honor  to  need  correction." 
He  was  withal  a  man  of  very  fine  sensibilities,  noble-hearted  and  generous  in  his  sym- 
pathies. At  one  time  he  was  sitting  on  the  hurricane  deck  of  a  Mississippi  steamer  engaged 
in  conversation  with  a  number  of  Southern  gentlemen,  when  a  cry  of  "child  overboard" 
was  heard.  The  Judge  rushed  to  the  steamer's  rail  to  learn  that  the  uproar  was  occasioned  by 
a  colored  child  having  fallen  into  the  river,  while  the  agonized  cry  of  distress  had  come  from 
the  frenzied  negro  mother.  Seeing  no  effort  being  made  toward  the  rescue  of  the  child,  he 
shouted  to  lower  a  boat,  and  throwing  off  his  coat,  plunged  head-foremost  from  the  great 
height  into  the  Mississippi.  On  regaining  the  surface,  he  saw  the  child  floating  some  distance 
astern,  and  swimming  to  its  relief,  supported  the  child  until  a  boat  reached  them  and  res- 
cued both.  This  brave  act  was  characteristic  of  the  man.  To  see  a  duty  was  to  do  it,  while 
the  chances  of  life  or  death  were  never  considered. 

He  was  Judge  of  the  District  Court  several  times,  and  was  elected  to  the  Louisiana 
State  Legislature,  where  he  ranked  with  the  best  forensic  orators  of  the  state.

He  died  in  the  prime  of  life  at  his  beautiful  home  "Okeden,"  on  the  Bay  St.  Louis, 
Miss.,  "giving  up  his  life  with  Christian  fortitude  and  with  wise  admonitions  to  his  children 
and  nephews,  who  with  the  friends  of  the  family  had  gathered  to  wait  for  the  dread  (to 
them)  event.  Many  tributes  from  eloquent  pens  followed  his  decease,  and  he  was  always 
thought  of  and  commented  upon  in  panegyric  as  the  'Elder  Hamlet.'  "

When  his  wife,  Frances  S.  (Nicholson)  Ogden,  died,  one  of  the  New  Orleans  newspapers

Dr.  Frederick  Nash  Ogden*°si  was  graduated  at  Chapel  Hill,  N.  C.  He  chose  the 
medical  profession,  and  after  graduation  began  his  practice  at  Baton  Rouge,  La.,  where 
he  soon  won  distinction  as  a  skillful  physician.  Like  his  older  brother,  Judge  Robert  Nash 
Ogden  2049,  he  was  ever  ready  to  take  the  field  of  honor,  and  was  either  principal  or  referee

convent  where  she  was  being  educated. 

He  died  in  his  3  2d  year,  at  the  very  threshold  of  a  most  promising  career.  He  was  a 
man  of  honor,  of  refined  manners,  and  very  popular.  He  always  maintained  the  right  as 
he  saw  it,  and  the  obituaries  written  after  his  death  were  all  tender  and  beautiful  remem- 
brances of  his  life.     He  was  a  worthy  son  of  worthy  sires.

He  was  a  Colonel  in  the  Confederate  service,  and  was  distinguished  for 
military  capacity  and  headlong  daring.  He  commanded  Scott's  Cavalry, 
and  probably  would  have  risen  to  high  rank  if  the  war  had  lasted  a  little 
longer.  At  the  time  of  the  New  Orleans  riots  in  1874  he  was  appointed 
Major^General  of  the  State  Militia,  and  displayed  uncommon  genius  in  soon 
bringing  order  out  of  chaos.  The  Spanish  blood  inherited  from  his 
mother  showed  itself  in  his  dignified  and  punctilious  manners.  He  was 
highly  honorable  in  all  his  relations  in  life,  and  his  presence  and  power 
were  widely  felt  and  recognized.  His  great  popularity  came  near  giving 
him  the  nomination  for  Governor  of  Louisiana.

2052.  Judge  Abner  Nash  Ogden  (Robert882,  Robert31",  Robert83, 
Robert16,  Jonathan4,  John1),  b.  Hillsboro,  N.  C,  Sept.  19,  1809;  d.  Bladen 
Springs,  Ala.,  1875;  1st  m.  Mary  Isabella  Smith;  2d  m.  Julia  Scott. 

Judge  Abner  Nash  Ogden^s*  very  early  in  life  gave  evidence  of  pronounced  mental 
strength  and  unusual  talent.  He  made  such  rapid  progress  in  his  education,  that  at  the 
age  of  14,  he  became  tutor  in  the  family  of  Judge  Alfred  Hennon  of  the  Southern  bar,  at  the 
same  time  studying  law  in  the  offices  of  the  Judge.  He  was  admitted  to  practice  at  the  age  of 
17,  and  did  so  in  partnership  with  his  brother  Judge  Robert  Nash  Ogden"°4o  at  Baton  Rouge, 
La.  His  remarkable  genius  soon  led  him  to  a  brilliant  career  at  the  bar,  and  when  only  32 
years  of  age  he  was  elected  Judge  of  the  Supreme  Court  of  Louisiana,  successfully  defeating 
a  prominent  Democratic  candidate.  Nothing  could  have  better  evinced  the  confidence  and 
esteem  in  which  he  was  held  by  the  people  of  the  state.  He  was  called  "The  Model  Lawyer 
of  the  Louisiana  Bar." 

In  politics  he  was  an  old  line  Whig,  and  used  his  utmost  influence  to  keep  Louisiana 
in  the  Union,  but  after  the  ordinance  of  secession  was  passed,  he  joined  with  his  people  and 
threw  his  heart  and  soul  into  the  movement  for  a  new  confederacy,  giving  four  sons  to  fight 
for  the  cause. 

His  later  years  were  saddened  by  the  loss  of  his  eyesight,  and  the  general  breaking 
down  of  his  overtaxed  though  robust  constitution.  Yet  he  lived  to  see  his  children's  chil- 
dren and  "in  a  high  sense  of  the  scriptural  phrase  'Peace  upon  Israel.'  He  died  at  Bladen 
Springs,  Ala.,  in  1875,  with  that  profession  upon  his  lips  which  confesses  eternal  life." 

His  first  wife,  Mary  Isabella  (Smith)  Ogden,  and  mother  of  his  first  two  children, 
was  a  descendant  of  Rev.  Jedediah  Smith,  the  first  Presbyterian  minister  ever  in  Natchez, 
Miss.  He  had  been  pastor  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  at  Granville,  Mass.,  for  18  years, 
when  he  determined  upon  a  mission  to  the  Mississippi  valley.  He  set  out  with  his  wife  and 
eleven  children  in  Apr.,  1776,  and  in  the  following  September  reached  Natchez,  only  to  die 
ten  days  after  his  arrival.  The  family  had  suffered  great  hardships  on  their  journey,  and 
greater  sufferings  upon  reaching  their  destination,  but  it  was  a  school  from  which  they 
developed  great  strength  of  character,  and  their  descendants  are  now  among  the  most 
numerous,  wealthy  and  respected  families  of  the  states  of  Louisiana  and  Mississippi.

As  his  name  would  indicate,  Judge  Octavius  N.  Ogdens°s6  was  the  eighth  child  of 
his  father  Judge  Robert  Ogden882,  and  with  his  two  brothers,  he  inherited  his  father's  legal 
talents.  He  was  an  orator  from  boyhood.  After  his  legal  training  and  admission  to  the  bar, 
he  rapidly  attained  distinction  by  his  forensic  talents,  logical  acumen  and  wonderful  powers 
of  appeal.  He  was  Judge  of  the  District  Court  of  Alexandria,  La.,  during  a  period  of  8  or 
10  years.  He  delivered  the  address  at  the  laying  of  the  corner-stone  of  the  Alexandria  Mili- 
tary Academy,  of  which  Gen'l  Sherman  became  President.  Another  of  his  noted  speeches 
was  made  before  the  University  of  Virginia,  extracts  from  which  are  to  be  found  in  current 
books  of  to-day.  In  the  argument  of  a  case  which  had  been  suddenly  interrupted  by  the 
death  of  his  brother  Judge  Robert  N.  Ogden*°49,  the  Bench  publicly  admitted  the  effort  to 
be  the  most  subtle  and  complete  legal  address  that  had  ever  come  within  their  experience. 

Judge  Ogden's  fame  brought  him  fortune,  and  later  in  life  he  visited  England,  Ireland, 
Scotland,  and  other  European  countries.  He  died  at  the  house  of  Consul  Patterson  at 
Genoa,  Italy,  and  his  remains  were  buried  there.  Of  several  children  only  one  survived.

Gov.  Daniel  Hainesj°57  was  graduated  at  Princeton  in  1820,  studied  law  and  was 
made  Attorney  in  1823,  Counsellor  in  1826,  and  Sergeant-at-law  in  1827,  being  one  of  the 
latest  to  receive  that  distinction. 

In  1843  he  was  chosen  Governor  of  New  Jersey.  He  was  a  staunch  friend  of  education, 
and  was  instrumental  in  establishing  the  State  Normal  School.  He  assisted  in  framing  the 
present  Constitution  of  New  Jersey.  In  1847  he  was  again  elected  Governor.  At  the  out- 
break of  the  Civil  War  he  was  found  in  thorough  sympathy  with  the  Union,  and  gave  two 
sons  and  one  son-in-law  to  serve  in  the  Northern  army,  one  of  the  former  being  killed  in 
battle.  He  was  himself  very  active  in  securing  victory  to  the  Federal  arms,  and  afterward 
as  much  so  in  healing  the  wounds  it  had  caused. 

In  1852  he  was  elevated  to  the  Bench  of  the  Supreme  Court  and  served  two  terms  of 
seven  years  each.  In  both  private  and  public  life  he  was  a  consistent,  conscientious  and 
noble  Christian  gentleman.  A  writer  said  of  him  at  his  death :  "What  a  beautiful  exemplifi- 
cation of  the  Christian  gentleman  he  was. "  While  he  was  Governor,  a  physician  of  Trenton 
remarked:  "I  have  seen  a  strange  sight  to-day — the  Governor  of  this  State  go  into  the  room 
of  a  man,  a  stranger,  and  kneeling  at  his  bedside,  pray  for  his  salvation."  He  was  to  con- 
duct a  religious  meeting  in  a  private  house  on  the  evening  of  the  day  he  died,  but  before 
the  appointed  hour  arrived,  God's  messenger  suddenly  called  him.  His  noble,  heroic,  self- 
sacrificing  life  was  an  honor  to  his  family,  the  state  and  the  nation. 

His  children  were  all  born  at  Hamburg,  N.  J.    He  had  no  issue  by  the  second  marriage.

"The  Salisbury  Memorial"  has  the  following  biographical  mention:  "There  are  now 
living,  and  thus  have  been  in  the  past,  many  of  the  female  descendants  of  '  Good  Old  John 
Ogden'  who  have  inherited  in  a  marked  degree  his  sturdy  virtue.  Conspicuous  among  these 
was  Sarah  Platt  Haines,  who  in  Thomas  C.  Doremus  found  a  worthy  husband.  To  those 
who  knew  Mrs.  Doremus  only  in  later  life  it  seemed  incredible  that  a  fragile  woman,  suffer- 
ing from  delicate  health,  *  *  could  not  only  conceive,  but  personally  execute,  works  of 
charity  of  a  magnitude  to  tax  the  powers  of  a  strong  man.  *  *  She  was  one  of  the  found- 
ers and  President  of  the  Mission  at  Grande  Ligne,  in  Canada;  one  of  the  founders  and  Vice- 
President  of  the  Nursery  and  Child's  Hospital,  one  of  the  most  benevolent  and  useful  institu- 
tions in  the  city  of  New  York;  one  of  the  founders  and  President  of  the  Board  of  Lady 
Supervisors  of  the  New  York  State  Woman's  Hospital;  President  of  the  Woman's  Mission- 
ary Society,  first  Directress  of  the  Woman's  Prison  Association  and  Home  for  Discharged 
Convicts;  a  manager  of  the  New  York  House  and  School  of  Industry.  In  these  and  other 
fields  she  spent  a  life  made  beautiful  by  charity." 

In  the  South  Reformed  Church,  Fifth  Ave.,  New  York,  is  a  tablet  to  her  memory,  which 
reads:  "In /memory  of  /  Sarah  Platt,  wife  of  Thomas  C.  Doremus  /  who  peacefully 
fell  asleep  in  Jesus  /January  29th  1877  /  Aged  74.  She  united  with  this  church  Sept.  11, 
1823.  'Well  reported  of  for  good  works;  she  hath  brought  up  children,  she  hath  lodged

land  company  that  obtained  the  Aredondo  Grant  from  the  Spanish  Gov't,  and  began  the 
first  American  settlement  in  the  Territory  of  Florida.  When  quite  a  young  man,  Sydney 
P.  H  AINES20S9  was  sent  to  Florida  to  care  for  his  father's  interests.  The  Seminole  War  break- 
ing out,  the  settlers  were  obliged  to  flee  for  their  lives.  When  the  United  States  Gov't 
assumed  possession  it  refused  to  recognize  the  rights  of  the  settlers,  and  young  Haines  re- 
turned north  and  engaged  in  various  business  enterprises  in  Hamburg,  N.  J.  While  here 
he  was  converted  to  a  religious  life.  A  four-horse  team  he  had  formerly  used  in  taking  loads 
of  men  to  political  meetings  and  places  of  amusement,  he  then  utilized  in  gathering  up  and 
transporting  people  to  religious  meetings.  He  was  benevolent  and  became  interested  in 
every  good  work,  in  which  he  was  nobly  seconded  by  his  estimable  wife.  He  removed  to 
Missouri,  finally  settling  at  Hannibal,  where  he  engaged  in  business.  While  on  a  business 
tour  he  was  stricken  with  inflammation  of  the  lungs,  from  which  he  died.

break of  Civil  War  he  assisted  in  raising  men  for  1st  N.  J.  Cav.,  in  which  his  two  brothers 
were  commissioned.  In  the  summer  of  1S62  he  zealously  engaged  in  organizing  the  15th

taken  with  pneumonia,  but  insisted  upon  being  carried  to  the  State  House  to  take  part  in 
the  organization  of  the  Assembly,  the  parties  being  nearly  tied.  This  exposure  caused  an 
illness  which  terminated  fatally  Jan.  14,  1865.     He  was  buried  at  North  Hardystone,   N.J.

2090.  Judge  Henry  D.  Ogden  (Peter  V.896,  Matthias*1*,  Robert8*, 
Robert16,  Jonathan4,  John1),  b.  1820;  d.  i897(?);  m.  Matilde  Waggaman. 

Judge  Henry  D.  OGDEN'»»»was  probably  born  in  New  Orleans,  where  his  father  resided. 
He  was  a  prominent  lawyer,  jurist,  soldier  and  political  leader,  and  died  at  the  age  of  77  years. 

He  was  natively  endowed  with  an  extraordinary  mind  and  unusual  mental  capacity, 
that  characterized  him  from  boyhood.  He  graduated  from  Princeton  College  at  20  years 
of  age,  and  at  once  began  the  study  of  law  under  Chief  Justice  Eustis  of  the  Supreme  Court 
of  La.  Was  admitted  to  the  bar  in  two  years,  and  in  less  than  three  years — in  1845 — was 
elected  to  the  Legislature,  where  he  served  with  distinction.  He  then  devoted  himself  to 
the  practice  of  law,  and  in  1859  was  elected  Judge  of  the  Fifth  Judicial  Dis't  Court,  which 
position  he  held  until  the  evacuation  of  New  Orleans  during  the  Civil  War.  Judge  Ogden 
was  member  of  the  Washington  Artillery,  but  did  not  go  out  with  that  command,  being 
appointed  Lieut.  Col.  on  Gov.  Moore's  staff,  and  later  left  the  city  on  Gen.  Lovell's  staff  as 
Provost  General,  having  in  charge  Camp  Moore,  above  the  city.  While  here  Gen.  Lovell 
sent  him  with  a  flag  of  truce  to  Gen.  Butler  at  the  time  of  the  execution  of  Mumford,  who 
pulled  down  the  U.  S.  flag  from  the  Custom  House.  Gen.  Beauregard  was  at  that  time  at 
Corinth,  Miss.,  and  telegraphed  for  Gen.  Ogden  to  go  up  there  and  perform  the  same  duties 
as  at  Camp  Moore ;  but  Gov.  Moore  would  not  permit  him  to  leave  the  state. 

Gen.  Ogden  was  later  transferred  to  the  trans-Mississippi  department  on  Gen.  Taylor's 
staff,  until  he  was  required  to  retire  from  active  service.  He  with  many  of  the  camp  were 
said  to  have  been  poisoned,  some  fatally,  by  a  Yankee  cook  who  had  been  taken  prisoner. 
After  partial  recovery,  he  was  assigned  as  Provost  General  on  the  staff  of  Gen.  Simon  Buck- 
ner,  who  had  succeeded  Gen.  Taylor.  Gen.  Ogden  was  a  model  soldier,  fearless  in  action, 
and  was  much  endeared  to  the  men  under  him. 

After  the  war,  Gen.  Ogden  returned  to  New  Orleans  and  resumed  the  practice  of  law. 
He  was  soon  chosen  City  Attorney,  but  the  city  being  under  military  rule,  and  not  having 
answered  a  test  question  satisfactorily  that  had  been  propounded  by  Gen.  Sheridan,  the 
latter  removed  Judge  Ogden  from  his  position.  The  Judge  then  actively  entered  political 
life  and  was  a  leader  in  the  movement  to  overthrow  the  "carpet-bag"  regime.  He  was 
chairman  of  the  Democratic  Executive  Committee  which  eventually  secured  Democratic 
control. 

Judge  Ogden  was  one  of  the  seven  founders  of  the  Daily  Democrat  which  later  became 
the  Times-Democrat .  He  was  always  regarded  as  a  fearless  man,  a  true  friend,  and  a  con- 
scientious gentleman.  An  attack  of  paralysis  from  which  he  suffered  eight  years  ended 
fatally.  The  funeral  services  were  held  at  the  Jesuits'  Church,  New  Orleans,  and  he  was 
interred  in  St.  Louis  Cemetery  No.  3. 

His  wife,  Matilde  {Waggaman)  Ogden,  was  a  sister  of  Col.  Eugene  Waggaman  and  a 
lady  of  exceptional  culture  and  intellectual  attainments.

Cordelia  A.  (Ogden)  Clark"95  was  graduated  from  Moravian  Seminary,  Bethle- 
hem, Pa.,  at  an  early  age.  She  was  for  years  actively  engaged  in  the  prominent  charities 
of  her  native  city,  holding  office  in  several  of  the  societies.  "Mrs.  Clark's  intelligence, 
unassuming  manner,  the  sweet  gentleness  of  her  disposition,  her  cheerfulness  and  patience 
under  great  affliction,  her  unselfishness  and  her  open-hearted  hospitality  endeared  her  not 
alone  to  her  immediate  family,  but  to  a  large  circle  of  friends." 

James  Henry  Clark,  A.M.,  M.D.,  was  born  in  Livingston,  Essex  Co.,  N.  J.  His  father. 
Rev.  Daniel  A.  Clark,  was  born  in  Rahway,  N.J.,  in  1779,  and  was  son  of  David  and  Eliza-

being  descended  from  Richard  Clarke  of  the  Mayflower  compact.  One  of  its  members, 
Abraham  Clark,  was  a  signer  of  the  Declaration  of  Independence.  The  Rev.  Daniel  Abraham 
Clark  graduated  at  Princeton  University  in  1808,  and  afterward  at  Andover  Theological 
Seminary.  He  was  ordained  a  clergyman  of  the  Congregational  Church  in  1810.  While 
stationed  in  Amherst,  Mass.,  he  became  one  of  the  founders  of  Amherst  College.  He  spent 
the  last  seven  years  of  his  life  in  New  York  City,  dying  there  in  1840.  He  married  in  1812, 
Eliza,  daughter  of  Dr.  Jeremiah  and  Abigail  (Gorham)  Barker,  who  bore  him  six  children, 
one  of  whom  was  Dr.  James  Henry  Clark,  husband  of  Cordelia  Almira  Ogden"95. 
Dr.  James  Henry  Clark  attended  the  high  schools  of  Amherst,  Mass.,  and  Bennington, 
Vt.,  and  later  passed  two  years  of  study  in  European  universities.  He  then  returned  to  this 
country  and  entered  the  College  of  Physicians  and  Surgeons,  New  York  City,  graduating 
in  1841  with  the  degree  of  M.D.  In  1859,  Amherst  College  conferred  the  degree  of  A.M. 
He  was  engaged  in  active  practice  in  Newark,  N.J.,  to  the  time  of  his  death,  being  a  specialist 
in  diseases  of  the  eye  and  ear.  In  1856  he  founded,  and  for  many  years  conducted  the  first 
eye  and  ear  clinic  in  New  Jersey.  Dr.  Clark  was  the  author  of  several  valuable  books, 
among  them  being  a  biography  of  his  father,  the  Rev.  Daniel  Abraham  Clark,  "Sight  and 
Hearing,"  "Medical  Topography  of  Newark,  N.  J.,"  "Medical  Men  of  Essex  Co.,  N.  J. — 
1 666-1866,"  and  withal  was  a  frequent  contributor  to  the  periodical  and  daily  press.  He 
was  a  man  of  exceptional  ability  and  acquirements  and  of  sterling  character,  was  interested 
in  all  important  public  affairs,  and  was  held  in  high  esteem  by  all  who  knew  him.

He  was  educated  at  Williston  Seminary,  East  Hampton,  Mass.  He 
studied  law  and  was  admitted  to  the  bar  in  1875.  He  was  later  appointed 
Counsellor  at  Law  and  Master  in  Chancery.  He  studied  and  practised  his 
profession  in  the  offices  of  the  late  David  A.  Hayes,  Esq.,  and  the  Hon. 
Frederick  Adams.  In  1882  impaired  health  required  him  to  relinquish  the 
active  work  of  his  profession  and  to  retire  to  his  residence  in  Montclair, 
where  he  spent  the  last  seven  years  of  his  life  in  much  pain.  His  mind  re- 
mained remarkably  clear,  permitting  him  to  gratify  his  marked  literary

Hon.  D.  Ogden  Bradley's2*60  ancestors  were  among  the  earliest  settlers  of  New 
England,  and  resided  in  New  Haven.  His  grandfather,  Hon.  Jabez  Bradley,  was  Judge  of 
Cayuga  Co.,  N.  Y.,  for  many  years.  His  father,  Henry  Bradley,  was  also  prominent  in 
public  affairs  and  in  1846  was  nominated  for  Governor  by  the  Liberal  Party. 

Hon.  D.  Ogden  Bradley  was  graduated  from  Hamilton  College  in  1848,  receiving  the 
degree  of  Master  of  Arts  from  the  same  institution.  He  studied  law,  and  was  admitted  as 
an  attorney-at-law  in  1850.  He  early  identified  himself  with  the  Republican  Party,  and 
acted  as  guard  at  Lincoln's  first  inauguration  as  President. 

In  1865  he  purchased  the  fine  residence  in  Dobbs  Ferry,  since  occupied  by  his  family. 
He  was  frequently  elected  President  of  the  village,  and  for  several  years  was  an  active 
member  of  its  Board  of  Education.  In  1868,  he  was  delegate  to  the  Republican  National 
Convention;  in  1872,  was  candidate  for  Congress;  in  1876,  was  Presidential  Elector;  in 
1879  was  elected  Member  of  Assembly,  and  re-elected  in  1880.  He  was  also  active  in  local 
and  county  affairs.  Mr.  Bradley's  patriotism  and  energy  largely  brought  about  the  erection 
of  the  Andre  Monument  at  Tarrytown,  and  the  base  of  the  Peace  Monument  erected  at 
Dobbs  Ferry  to  commemorate  the  spot  where  Washington  concluded  arrangements  for  the 
evacuation  of  American  soil  by  the  British.  He  was  President  of  the  Tarrytown  National 
Bank,  and  contributed  most  largely  to  its  success ;  as  President  of  the  Sleepy  Hollow  Ceme- 
tery Corporation,  he  greatly  enlarged  and  beautified  its  grounds. 

Early  thrown  upon  his  own  resources  by  his  practical  father,  his  only  capital  was  "a 
character  combining  clear  judgment,  unbending  integrity,  ceaseless  industry,  wise  economy 
and  methodical  habits.  These  qualities  commended  him  to  men  of  wealth  and  large  business 
enterprises,  and  so  prepared  the  way  for  the  success  that  marked  his  career.  "  He  held  many 
important  trusts,  and  was  chiefly  active  in  Chicago,  Brooklyn,  New  York  City,  and  West- 
chester Co.,  N.  Y.  He  was  one  of  the  original  stockholders  of  the  Yonkers  Publishing  Co., 
and  was  Trustee  and  adviser  from  the  beginning.  He  was  a  forceful  speaker  and  an  able 
writer. 

Mr.  Bradley's  first  wife,  Elizabeth  {Neeley)  Bradley,  was  the  only  sister  of  Bishop 
Neeley,  of  Maine.  His  second  wife,  Cornelia  {Fitch)  Bradley,  was  the  dau.  of  Abijah  Fitch, 
of  Auburn,  N.  Y.,  and  a  gifted  and  devoted  wife  and  mother.  She  was  interred  in  Sleepy 
Hollow  Cemetery,  and  her  husband,  who  died  suddenly  from  heart  trouble,  is  buried 
her.

She  was  honored  with  four  literary  degrees  from  prominent  institutions;

Charles  Milton  Ogden*s27  was  at  22  yrs.  of  age  a  reporter  in  New  York  City.  It 
seems  he  removed  to  Washington  State,  from  the  following  clipping  taken  from  a  Tacoma 
paper:  "Readers  of  the  Post-Intelligencer,  throughout  the  Seattle  land  district,  comprising 
the  greater  part  of  the  Puget  Sound  country,  will  learn  with  regret  that  the  popular  and 
efficient  Receiver  of  Public  Moneys  for  the  District,  Hon.  Charles  M.  Ogden,  will  leave 
Seattle  to-day  with  his  family  for  New  York  and  retire  from  the  responsible  office  which 
he  has  so  acceptably  filled  since  July,  1890.  On  account  of  ill  health,  Mr.  Ogden  recently 
tendered  his  resignation  to  the  President,  and  it  was  accepted  with  regret  and  reluctance." 

His  appointment  to   the  Seattle  District  was  made  by  President  Harrison  in   1889. 
Finding  the  climate  did  not  agree  with  him,  he  returned  east  and  renewed  his  newspaper 
work,  representing  the  Philadelphia  Press,   the  Boston  Globe,  the  St.  Paul  Pioneer-Press, 
the  California  Associated  Press,  and  the  New  York  World  and  New  York  Sun.

Aug.  10,  1840;  d.  Florence,  Italy,  Apr.  10,  1891 ;  son  of  John  Emerson 
Strong  and  Abigail  Percival,  his  wife. 

Gen.  William  Emerson  Strong  was  born  at  Granville,  N.  Y.  While  a  small  boy,  his 
parents  removed  to  Wisconsin,  where  he  passed  his  youth  and  early  manhood.  He  had  just 
been  admitted  to  the  bar  of  his  adopted  state  when  Fort  Sumter  was  fired  upon ;  it  so  stirred 
his  patriotism  he  responded  to  the  first  call  for  troops  in  1861,  and  immediately  raised  a 
company  for  the  2d  Wis.  Inf.  in  Apr.,  1861 .  He  began  his  military  career  in  the  Army  of  the 
Potomac,  taking  an  honorable  part  with  his  regiment  in  the  first  battles  of  the  war,  at 
Blackburn's  Ford  and  Bull  Run.  A  few  months  later  he  was  promoted  Major  of  the  12th 
Wis.  Inf.  and  was  from  that  time  associated  with  the  Army  of  the  Tennessee  to  the  close  of 
the  war,  being  in  active  service  till  peace  was  declared. 

For  bravery  in  battle,  Gen.  Strong  was  early  assigned  to  duty  on  the  staff  of  the 
gallant  and  lamented  McPherson  by  whom  he  was  held  in  the  highest  esteem,  and  it  was 
he  who  received  the  last  order  Gen.  McPherson  ever  gave,  a  moment  before  he  was  killed 
in  the  battle  of  Atlanta,  July  22,  1864.  After  Gen.  McPherson's  death,  Gen.  Strong 
remained  on  duty  as  Chief  of  Staff  for  Gen.  O.  O.  Howard  until  the  end  of  the  war.  He 
served  with  marked  distinction  in  every  battle  and  campaign  of  the  Army  of  the  Tennessee. 
Upon  the  surrender  of  Vicksburg,  July  4,  1863,  Gen.  Strong  was  accorded  the  honor  of 
raising  the  Stars  and  Stripes  over  the  captured  ramparts.  He  was  brevetted  Brigadier 
General  Mar.,  1865,  for  gallant  and  meritorious  service. 


$tntt)  defeneration 


After  the  war,  Gen.  Strong  removed  to  Chicago  to  engage  in  business,  where  he  con- 
tinued to  reside  until  his  death.  He  always  took  an  active  interest  in  public  affairs,  but 
never  held  official  position.  He  resided  in  Chicago  over  twenty  years,  and  in  all  his  business 
transactions  was  the  soul  of  integrity  and  honor,  no  other  citizen  being  held  in  higher  esteem. 
He  was  the  close  personal  friend  of  Gen.  Sheridan,  his  companion  in  many  mountain  ex- 
cursions, and  on  the  Western  frontier.  An  interesting  description  of  a  trip  to  the  Yellow- 
stone in  1875  with  the  Secretary  of  War  was  published  by  him  for  private  distribution. 
Refined  and  cultured,  Gen.  Strong  accumulated  many  original  orders,  letters  and  other 
papers  relating  to  the  Civil  War,  of  great  historical  value  and  interest. 

Gen.  Strong  was  one  of  the  earliest  members  of  the  Loyal  Legion,  and  served  one  term 
as  Commander  of  the  order,  saying  he  esteemed  it  higher  than  any  office  in  the  gift  of  the 
people.  He  was  a  man  of  strong  personality,  enthusiastic  and  of  striking  appearance, 
having  a  "frank,  manly  and  generous  disposition;  brave,  gallant  and  chivalric;  he  illus- 
trated in  his  own  career,  the  highest  and  best  type  of  the  American  soldier.  He  was  our 
Chevalier  Bayard,  'without  fear  and  without  reproach.'  "

McClurg,  b.  Philadelphia,  Pa.,  Sept.  9, 1832  ;  d.  St.  Augustine,  Fla.,  Apr.  15, 
1 90 1 ;  son  of  Alexander  and  Sarah  Trevor  McClurg. 

Gen.  Alexander  Caldwell  McClurg  was  born  in  Philadelphia,  but  his  parents 
soon  after  removed  to  Pittsburg,  where  his  boyhood  was  spent  and  his  education  begun. 
He  subsequently  graduated  at  Miami  University,  Oxford,  O.,  and  then  began  the  study  of 
law  in  Pittsburg,  in  the  office  of  Walter  H.  Lowry,  then  Chief  Justice  of  Pennsylvania. 
Failing  health  caused  him  to  relinquish  the  legal  profession,  and  he  went  to  Chicago  in  1859, 
where  he  entered  the  book  store  of  S.  C.  Griggs  &  Co. 

When  the  Civil  War  broke  out,  he  offered  his  services  to  the  Government,  but  the 
regiments  were  complete.  However,  he  recruited  the  Crosby  Guard  in  the  summer  of  1862, 
and  was  elected  Captain,  the  company  becoming  a  part  of  the  8Sth  Reg't,  111.  Infantry. 
The  regiment  left  Chicago  Sept.  4,  1862,  to  join  the  army  of  Gen.  Buell,  then  defending 
Cincinnati  and  Louisville  against  the  advancing  armies  of  Bragg  and  Kirby  Smith.  After 
Bragg's  retreat,  Capt.  McClurg  was  detailed  judge  advocate  of  a  general  court-martial, 
presided  over  by  Gen.  Woodruff,  of  Kentucky.  His  eminent  ability  caused  Gen.  McCook 
to  detail  him  as  acting  assistant  Adjutant  General  of  the  corps  staff.  After  the  battle  of 
Chickamauga  he  was  assigned  to  duty  as  Adjutant  General  of  a  division  under  Gen.  Baird. 
Gen.  Sheridan  offered  him  a  position  on  his  staff,  but  Capt.  McClurg  felt  it  his  duty  to  remain 
with  Gen.  Baird,  and  he  served  with  distinction  through  the  siege  of  Chattanooga  and  the 
various  battles  around  that  city.  When  Gen.  Sherman  was  preparing  for  his  Atlanta  cam- 
paign, Capt.  McClurg  was  assigned  to  duty  as  Adjutant  General  of  the  14th  Army  Corps, 
commanded  by  Maj.  Gen.  John  M.  Palmer,  and  was  known  as  one  of  the  most  capable 
officers  of  the  Western  army.  He  participated  in  nearly  every  battle  and  skirmish  until 
the  fall  of  Atlanta.  A  month  prior  to  that  event  Capt.  McClurg  was  promoted  to  the  rank 
of  Lieut.  Col.  for  gallant  and  meritorious  conduct  in  the  battle  of  Jonesboro,  and  soon  after 
was  made  chief  of  staff.  He  constantly  added  to  his  laurels  and  was  promoted  to  the  brevet 
rank  of  Colonel  and  then  of  Brigadier  General. 

At  the  close  of  the  war,  Generals  Sherman,  Thomas,  Davis  and  others  urged  him  to 
apply  for  position  in  the  regular  army,  but  Gen.  McClurg  preferred  to  return  to  civil  life. 
He  re-entered  the  firm  of  S.  C.  Griggs  &  Co.,  which  in  1872  became  Jansen,  McClurg  &  Co., 
and  in  1886,  A.  C.  McClurg  &  Co.  Gen.  McClurg  was  an  able  writer,  and  used  his  pen 
against  the  making  of  cheap  books,  and  for  the  establishment  of  the  International  Copyright 
law.     He  also  furnished  articles  on  military  and  literary  subjects  to  the  best  magazines. 

The  strong  executive  mind  of  Gen.  McClurg  steadied  the  business  of  the  firm  during 
the  reconstructive   period  following  the  war,  but  a  severer  test  was  to  follow  in  three  dis- 


tf>intl)  eventration 


astrous  fires.  In  1868,  1871,  and  1899,  Gen.  McClurg's  business  was  burned  out;  but  his 
energy  and  genius  for  organization  soon  reconstructed  the  business,  and  placed  it  again  on 
the  road  to  success. 

Gen.  McClurg  was  not  only  active  in  military  and  business  life,  but  was  very  public- 
spirited,  doing  much  to  benefit  the  city  of  his  adoption.  At  a  special  meeting  of  the  Ameri- 
can Publishers'  Association  two  days  after  his  death,  a  warm  tribute  of  respect  was  drafted 
in  memory  of  Gen.  McClurg,  who  was  First  Vice-President  of  the  organization,  and  a  number 
of  the  leading  publishers  of  the  country  attended  his  funeral.

Rev.  Abner  Nash  Ogden,  Jr. 3384  was  graduated  from  Princeton  University,  and  later 
studied  and  practised  law  with  his  uncle,  Octavius  Nash  Ogden,  Esq.,  in  Alexandria,  La. 
During  the  Civil  War  he  joined  the  Confederate  army  and  ranked  as  First  Lieut.  He  was 
mentioned  in  general  orders  for  conspicuous  bravery  at  the  siege  and  passage  of  Forts  Jack- 
son and  St.  Philips,  in  the  spring  of  1862. 

After  the  war,  he  entered  the  ministry  of  the  Prot.  Epis.  Church  in  Louisiana,  and 
struggled  to  build  a  church  at  Alexandria,  La.  In  the  mean  time  Senator  Don  Cameron, 
of  Pennsylvania,  who  had  been  his  personal  friend  and  class-mate  in  Princeton,  looked 
him  up,  and,  finding  the  straitened  circumstances  under  which  he  was  laboring,  gladly 
built  and  endowed  the  church,  and  also  built  a  well-appointed  rectory  for  his  home.  His 
health  failed,  and  he  dropped  dead  in  a  drug-store  in  Alexandria.

3386.  Hon.  Horatio  Nash  Ogden  (Abner  N.2°52,  Robert882,  Robert310, 
Robert83,  Robert16,  Jonathan",  John1),  b.  1840;  d.  June,  1883;  m.  Martine 
Kennedy. 

He  was  graduated  from  Oakland  College,  Miss.,  and  then  matriculated  at  the  Louisiana 
State  University,  from  the  law  department  of  which,  he  received  the  degree  of  Bachelor 
of  Laws.  Soon  after  entering  upon  the  practice  of  law,  the  Civil  War  began,  and  he  at 
once  volunteered  and  became  adjutant  in  heavy  artillery,  under  his  cousin  No.  3382,  Gen. 
Fred.  N.  Ogden,  at  Vicksburg,  where  he  served  with  gallantry  and  honor. 

A  New  Orleans  paper  further  says  of  him:  "At  the  close  of  the  war  he  returned  to  New 
Orleans  and  once  more  commenced  the  practice  of  the  law,  and  soon  won  a  high  position 
among  the  best  advocates.  During  the  troublous  times  when  the  Radicals  were  in  power 
here,  he  was  a  strong  partisan  for  the  people's  rights,  and  in  their  vindication  visited  Wash- 
ington to  secure  immunity  from  Federal  interference.  In  1876,  with  Gen.  F.  T.  Nicholls, 
who  was  chosen  as  Governor,  Horatio  N.  Ogden  was  elected  to  the  responsible  position  of 
Attorney  General,  which  office  he  filled  during  his  term  with  honor  to  the  State  and  credit 
to  himself.  When  his  term  had  expired  he  again  took  his  place  at  the  bar,  and  up  to  the 
hour  of  his  untimely  death  was  esteemed  as  a  safe  and  judicious  adviser  and  a  man  of  the 
strictest  probity." 

"He  was  a  trusted,  beloved  and  honored  Elder  of  the  Lafayette  Presbyterian  Church 
of  New  Orleans."  While  actively  engaged  in  business  and  philanthropic  matters,  and 
before  he  had  reached  the  prime  of  life,  he  was  suddenly  stricken  one  afternoon  while  on  a 
street  car  with  congestion  of  the  brain  and  died  in  a  few  hours. 

The  above  news  article  adds:  "The  late  Attorney  General  of  our  State  requires  no 
elaborate  eulogy.  A  life  marked  with  a  strict  observance  of  every  moral  injunction,  a 
thorough  and  unselfish  devotion  to  duty,  a  modest  and  brave  front  in  danger,  and  the  same 
singleness  of  purpose  at  the  fireside  as  on  the  field  of  battle,  needs  no  rhetoric  to  embalm  it. 
Such  was  that  of  Horatio  N.  Ogden,  the  lamented  and  beloved  deceased."

He  was  captured  with  his  whole  company  on  the  Rapidan,  and  was  kept  in  prison  until  the

wife,  of  Adams  Co.,  Miss. 

Lieut.  Edmund  S.  Ogden338o  was  attending  school  at  the  breaking  out  of  the  Civil 
War,  and  although  but  1 5  years  of  age,  he  enlisted  in  the  Confederate  army  and  assisted  in 
raising  a  company  of  the  8th  Battalion,  Heavy  Artillery,  La.  Troops,  with  which  he  served 
through  the  siege  of  Vicksburg.  He  was  then  transferred  to  the  army  in  Virginia,  serving 
under  Col.  J.  B.  Walton  in  the  Washington  Artillery  at  Gettysburg,  Fredericksburg,  Chan- 
cellorsville,  Williamsport,  and  Newbern.  In  the  Gettysburg  fight,  the  section  of  battery 
to  which  he  was  attached  was  put  out  of  action,  after  which  its  men  assisted  in  carrying 
the  wounded  from  the  field.  While  thus  engaged,  Mr.  Ogden's  comrade  recognized  a 
signal  of  distress  given  by  a  Yankee  captain  who  had  fallen  on  a  part  of  the  field  under 
particularly  heavy  fire.  They  at  once  went  to  his  relief  and  carried  him  to  where  the  Con- 
federate surgeons  were  operating,  and  where  he  was  given  needed  attention.  It  was  a  case 
of  heroic  daring,  but  all  Mr.  Ogden  remembers  of  the  incident  is  that  the  wounded  officer 
was  of  a  N.  Y.  or  N.  J.  Reg't,  and  that  he  was  deeply  grateful  for  the  service  rendered  a 
fallen  foe. 

After  the  battle  of  Gettysburg,  Mr.  Ogden  was  promoted  to  2d  Lieut,  in  the  1st  La. 
Heavy  Artillery,  with  which  he  remained  until  the  close  of  the  war,  having  served  from  the 
age  of  15  to  19,  passing  unscathed  through  many  of  the  most  desperately  fought  battles. 
He  now  resides  at  Cannonsburg,  Miss.,  and  has  kindly  furnished  much  genealogical  material 
concerning  his  branch  of  the  family.

J.  Ogden  Armour442<>  was  graduated  from  Yale  in  1889,  after  which  he  took  a  short 
European  tour.  He  then  returned  to  Chicago,  where,  in  the  course  of  time,  he  and  his  younger 
brother  were  taken  into  partnership  with  their  father,  P.  D.  Armour,  the  founder  of  the 
great  meat  packing  firm  of  Armour  &  Company.  After  the  death  of  his  father,  J.  Ogden 
Armour  succeeded  to  the  presidency  of  the  concern,  and  under  his  management  its  enter- 
prises and  business  interests  have  been  extensively  increased,  and  its  commercial  relations 
extended  around  the  world. 

The  corporation  has  extensive  packing  houses  at  Chicago,  Kansas  City,  Omaha,  East 
St.  Louis,  Sioux  City  and  Fort  Worth,  Tex.  In  connection  with  them,  the  corporation  con- 
ducts glue  works,  soap  works,  fertilizer  works,  car  lines,  and  a  number  of  auxiliary  enter- 
prises, all  under  the  name  of  "Armour."  Beside  the  immense  fresh  meat  trade,  Armour  & 
Co.  deal  extensively  in  salted,  canned,  potted  and  minced  meats,  soups,  extract  of  beef, 
laboratory  products,  and  by-products,  such  as  hides,  wool,  neatsfoot  oil.  curled  hair,  gela- 
tine, sand-paper,  ammonia,  and  isinglass.  Refrigeration  of  meats  in  abattoir,  cars  and  ship 
compartments  has  been  their  special  study. 

Mr.  Armour  also  exercises  control  in  the  Armour  Grain  Co.,  the  Armour  Elevator  Co. 
and  the  Milwaukee  Elevator  Co.  These  associated  companies  rank  among  the  largest  dealers 
in  cereals  on  the  globe,  and  chiefly  in  the  grain  trade  between  the  United  States  and  Euro- 
pean countries.  He  is  also  extensively  interested  in  banks  and  other  financial  institutions, 
railroads,  street  railways,  stock  yards,  electric  light  companies,  and  other  important  enter- 
prises. 

His  home  life  is  quiet  and  unostentatious,  and  his  magnificent  house  on  Michigan  Ave., 
Chicago,  has  only  rarely  been  the  scene  of  large  social  gatherings.

Philip  Danforth  Armour,  Jr. 4431,  was  educated  at  Phillips  Andover  Academy,  and  at 
eighteen  years  of  age  entered  Yale  University  and  studied  in  the  Sheffield  Scientific  School. 
After  one  year  of  work  he  decided  to  leave  school  and  enter  the  house  of  Armour  &  Company, 
where  it  had  always  been  his  father's  desire  to  see  him  installed.  He  first  spent  a  year  abroad 
visiting  all  the  countries  of  Europe,  and  then  returned  directly  to  Chicago  to  assume  the 
duties  of  his  business  career.  He  began  at  the  bottom,  going  to  the  stock  yards  every  day 
and  mastering  the  details  of  the  business  in  each  successive  department.  At  the  age  of 
twenty-five  he  was  made  a  partner  in  the  house  of  Armour  &  Co. 

He  was  a  member  of  many  clubs,  but  was  so  domestic  in  his  thoughts  and  habits,  he 
rarely  was  seen  within  their  rooms  or  grounds.  His  single  out-of-door  sport  was  driving, 
and  his  stables  contained  many  of  the  finest  blooded  driving  horses  in  the  country.  He 
was  possessed  of  fine  business  ability,  and  had  he  lived,  would  have  made  a  name  for  himself 
as  merchant  and  financier.

Ccntl)  (feneration 


Mayor  Carter  Henry  Harrison,  Jr.,  came  of  the  Harrison  family  of  Virginia,  to  which 
Presidents  William  H.  and  Benjamin  Harrison  belonged.  His  father  of  the  same  name, 
also  a  leading  politician,  was  Mayor  of  Chicago  from  1879  to  1S86,  serving  four  consecutive 
terms,  and  was  again  elected  Apr.,  1893,  tne  vear  °f  tne  Columbian  Exposition. 

His  son,  Carter  H.  Harrison,  Jr.,  attended  the  public  schools  of  Chicago,  took  a  four 
years'  course  at  St.  Ignatius  College,  and  three  and  a  half  years  of  study  in  Altenburg,  Ger- 
many. Returning  to  America,  he  entered  Yale,  and  graduated  in  1883  with  the  degree  of 
Bachelor  of  Laws. 

His  versatile  talents  have  led  him  not  only  as  a  lawyer,  but  as  real-estate  dealer,  and 
editor  and  manager  of  one  of  Chicago's  great  dailies.  His  knowledge,  experience,  foresight 
and  executive  ability  have  brought  about  his  election  as  Mayor  of  Chicago  for  four  consei  11- 
tive  terms,  being  first  elected  in  1897.  During  the  vast  responsibilities  that  have  rested 
upon  him,  he  has  been  noted  for  honesty  and  courage  in  administering  the  severe  and  exact- 
ing duties  of  his  office,  preserving  a  remarkable  equanimity  of  mind  under  the  greatest 
provocation.  Scholarly  and  eloquent,  he  has  tirelessly  prosecuted  each  of  his  campaigns, 
and  has  exercised  that  rare  common-sense  that  has  given  him  the  mastery  of  affairs  in  his 
rights  for  the  common  people.  It  has  been  his  habit  of  receiving  the  general  public  four 
days  each  week,  listening  with  patience  and  kindness  to  their  pleas  and  grievances,  and 
assuring  them  of  his  purpose  to  give  relief.  All  of  his  business  is  prosecuted  with  system, 
deliberation  and  thoroughness  in  dealing  with  the  2,000,000  citizens  of  Chicago. 

His  wife,  nee  Edith  Ogden448S?  was  a  daughter  of  Judge  Robert  Nash  Ogden337*,  of 
the  Louisiana  Court  of  Appeals.  "She  has  all  the  charm  for  which  Southern  women  are 
notable,  with  grace,  beauty  and  literary  talents  of  a  high  order."  She  has  written  two  books 
of  fairy  tales  for  children.  The  first,  "Prince  Silverwings,"  received  high  praise  from  the 
critics  and  had  wonderful  success.  The  second,  "Star  Fairies,"  is  expected  to  be  as  kindly 
received.     Mr.  and  Mrs.  Harrison's  first  child  died  in  infancy.
