FOREWORD
The foundation of this volume was laid by the will of the late
Samuel St. John, of New York, and New Haven, Conn., published in
book form in 1852, and now incorporated herein.
The work has been a labor of love, and it has been my wish that
all who shall possess the book may enjoy it as much as I have its com-
pilation. It has cost me a great deal of time and labor, during the
past decade, expended without thought of compensation, save that
which came from the satisfaction of preserving records and family
traditions which were rapidly passing away. No attempt has been
made to trace the family beyond the first American immigrant.
Notwithstanding all the efforts made, and care exercised, to verify
names and dates, there are doubtless many errors. Perhaps an abso-
lutely correct genealogy was never written. By far the larger por-
tion of the facts herein recorded has been obtained from family Bibles,
town, court, and cemetery records, or from published genealogies.
It is with regret that I confess many failures to receive replies
to queries sent out, to which must be attributed some lack of connec-
tion among the records. And now that my work is ended, I particu-
larly desire to thank all who responded so kindly to my inquiries, and
to assure them that I shall ever cherish among my pleasantest memories
their patient interviews, their warm hospitality, and kind letters.
To the Rev. Horace E. Hayden, author of Virginia Genealogies,
and to Mr. David H. Van Hoosear, author of the Van Hoosear Gene-
S'logJ) niy gratitude is especially given for their valuable aid. I
desire also to acknowledge the encouragement of the Rev. C. M. Sel-
leck, Norwalk's historian, and the kind services of Mrs. M. Louisa
Brodnax, genealogist, of New York City.

THE OLD STYLE AND NEW STYLE CALENDAR
The year, at the time of the American Colonial period, began
March 25th and ended March 24th, and so remained until 1752 ; then
the change was made to January 1st by Great Britain and her Colonies.
Other European countries had made the change earlier.
From 1607 to 1752 double dating was the common practice for
the months between January 1st and March. This was an attempt to
give dates for a year beginning March 25th and at the same time
for a year beginning January 1st. This led to much confusion with
regard to dates of marriages and births. (For further information
see articles on " Calendar " and " Chronology " in the Encyclopedia
Britannica.)
INTRODUCTION
The following items, names, etc., are given here because they ap-
pear on the records. No proof of connection has as yet been found
with the first Matthias St. John.
Viscount Grandison was the son of Nicholas and Elizabeth
(Blount) St. John. His younger brother, Richard, was ancestor
of the Irish St. Johns, and I think of our Matthew St. John, who,
by the way, lived in St. Botolph, Bishopsgatc, in London, before
going to Conn. (N. E. Hist, and Gen. Register, vol. 54, p. 342;
Colonial Papers; British Pubhc Records.)

Hector St. John came from France to Hamptonburgh, Orange
Co., N. Y., and lived where Hezekiah Moffatt lived and died. He
returned to France during the Rev. War, with one son. He after-
wards returned to the U. S. as Consul" to N. Y. The other son and
daughter were educated in the eastern part of the U. S. Frances,
the dau., m. a Frenchman named Otto and went to France. There
he was made Count Otto and sent to the court at Vienna, etc. (Eagers'
Hist, of Orange Co., N. Y., p. 488.)
Permission is granted Mr. Hector St. John to send his family
by a Flag going up Hudson's River. (Rev. Events No. 205, Genl.
Pattison issues permits; Orange Co., N. Y., Republican, 1904.)
Henry Wisner writes Gov. Clinton: "West Point, Feb. 19, 1778.
I arrived here last evening broke roads over the mountains through
the snow with 16 teams. I take liberty to observe that the people
of our country are much alarmed at their apprehensions of St. Johns
Being permitted to goe to New York I asked one of the most sensible
of them what damage he could Doe; he observed that he might Ad-
vise the Burning of Sterling works in order to prevent our giting
the Chain done. I told him I believed you would Consider well the
matter Before you would grant that permition." (Vol. 2, 788, Clinton
Papers.)

Goodman Nicholas Senchion came from England in the Elizabeth
and Ann. Nicholas Sension of Windsor, Connecticut, was fined to
pay five pounds to the Country for not appearing to witness against
Aaron Starke, July 2, IGJtO. (Colonial Records, 1, 55; Savage, iv.
p. 52.) In 1643 he bought the lot of Richard Waller at Windsor
on Silver St. opposite Pigeon Hill road and built thereon. This lot
in 1663 was between John Mores and James Eno. " Senshion's house
was against the waye to Pigeon Hill" (Stiles, Windsor, i. 166, 155).
In 1654 he was in possession by purchase or otherwise of Matthias
Sension's lot (idem). He was a member of the Windsor Dragoons
who, July 3, 1667, received Pouches of Thomas Dibble (i. 184). In
1675 he was reported among the first class of tax payers at Windsor
in the list headed "Family horse and four oxen" (i. 88). In 1676
he gave 2 shill, 6 pence for the poor of the other colonies (i. 229).
In 1673 he gave 2 shillings for Church purposes (i. 885). He was
made freeman at Windsor Oct. 11, 1669 (Col. Rec, ii. 520).
The Old Church Records of Windsor state that " he married
his wife Isabel, June 12t]i 1645, now 1680, and 35 yrs., last June, and
had no child." She was admitted to the Church, Jan. 22, 1649, and
was still living in W. Dec. 21, 1677. In 1648 Nicholas was a witness
to the will of Edward Chalkwell and received from his estate a legacy
of a gun, sword, and bandoliers, vest, hat, and 40 shillings (Col. Rec,
i. 492). He was convicted of gross crimes, 1677, and put under
300 recognizance for his good behaviour, and his lands, housings,
cattle and household stufli^ pledged therefor (Stiles, Windsor, ii. 676,
quoting " Crimes and iMisdcmeanours," i. 92, 112, State Archives).
There is nothing to indicate that he was related to Matthias.

Thomas Senchon was an iiihuljitiuit of Windsor, 1639, but it
does not appear who he was. Matthew Grant's Old Church Record,
so often quoted, gives this fact: "May 16, 1639, two children died,
John Phelps and Thomas Senchon's " (Stiles, Windsor, i. 877).
The same record (i. 878) also gives this: "1647, died Sara
Senchon."

St. Botolph, Boston). She came with him to Lynn, Mass., in May,
1636 (Memoir of Rev. Sanmel Whiting).
FIRST GENERATION
FIRST GENERATION
1 MATTHIAS ST. JOHN, SENSION or SENTION, the first of
this name whom we can trace in America, was born in England, came to
Dorchester, Mass., in 1631-2, and was made a freeman there, on Sep-
tember 3rd, 1634. He received a grant of 20 acres in Dorchester,
January 14, 1635, " at the bounds betwixt Roxbury and Dorchester."
We find the record, on January 16, 1636: " It is ordered that Mathias
Sension and Thomas Sampford shall keepe the eowes this yeere to
begin the 17th day of Aprill and to continue the keepeing of them
till the 15th of Nouember to haue for their pay in keepeing 5 shills
the head for as many as are brought in ; the sayd five shill p' head
to be payd ^ in hand ^ at halfe the tyme the other at the end of the
tyme."
On March 18, 1637, Matthias owned three acres, two goads, and
three rods in the neck at Dorchester, and two acres, one goad, and
four rods in the Cow pasture. In 1638 he had sold his house as, on
April 23, 1638, it was ordered " that Mr. Withington shall haue
adjoining to his house that was Mr. Sensions the swamp aboue," etc.
And on October 31, 1639, it was ordered that there should be laid
out " 3 akers for Mr. Withington which was Mathias Sensions." As
late as 1674 this property was referred to as that which was Mr.
Sensions (Dorchester Town Records, iv. 14, 22, 31, 33, 41).
Matthias St. John moved to Windsor, Conn., in 1640, as in that
year he had granted to him, at Windsor, a lot in the Palisades con-
taining ten rods. This was occupied in 1890 by Mrs. Anson Loomis.
It was bounded. South by the Burying Ground and the road leading
to it, at the South West corner of the Palisades Green ; East by the
Green. It was 10 rods wide and 18 rods deep, extending back to the
Palisades. A record of the lot was made in the " Book of Figures "
(the records were so kept before the Court established a Town Clerk
to keep the records). This lot, with house, was sold to Walter Gay-
lord, the son of Deacon Gaylord. Sension also owned one of the
home lots in Backer Row, 27 rods South of North Sandy Hill Road,
14 rods wide; afterwards found in the possession of Nicholas Sension.
He also had 24 rods of land in East Windsor, east three miles, bounded
North by Joshua Carter and South by John Stiles.

4 St. John Genealogy
In Matthew Grant's Old Church Records, among those who, " Be-
ing gone yet had children born here," i. e. in Windsor, appears,
' Mathias Sonchon 3 " (Stiles, Hist. Ancient Windsor, i. 166, 479,
545, 883). " Mathewe Sension " was a member of the Grand Jury,
Nov. 19, 1643, and in Dec, 1644 (Col. Records of Conn., i. 95, 114).
The name Matthias Sension (or Matthew, as given in the index) ap-
pears on a list of settlers in Wethersfield between 1636 and 1645.
Matthias was in Wethersfield as early as 1648, if not earlier, for when
Jonas Weede removed to Stamford from Wethersfield about 1640 he
sold his place to Matthias Sension (St. John).
In February', 1658, Thomas Wickham, of Wethersfield, recorded
a house and " garden plot," which he had bought of Matthias Sension,
late of Wethersfield. He recorded to his son, Thomas, the house he
had bought of Matthias Sension, bounded N. & E. by High St. Com-
mon, South by Thos Curtis' Homestead, W. by Thos. Tracy. He
and his wife, Sarah, in 1673, gave the Matthias Sension house, ware-
house and " cellar " to their eldest son, Thomas (History of Wethers-
field, Conn., by Henry R. Stiles, M. D., vol. i. pp. 31, 296, 312).
Matthias Sension was a Juryman in Particular Court, at Hart-
ford, Conn., on March 28, 1650; a juror before Edward Hopkins,
Esq., Gov., Magistrate, May 7, 1650-51. On October 21, 1651, he
was before a Particular Court at Hartford, apparently owing 14s. 7d.
As a juror, in May, 1653, he made oath at this Court that John
Barnes, dec'd, owed him, at his death, £1. Again on June 1st, 1654,
" Matthias Sension of Wethersfield " was before a Particular Court
at Hartford because he " had sold syder to Indians by which they was
Drunkc." He was before a Grand Jury, Nov. 13, 1654, and was a
Juror, Dec, 1654. Matthias Sension had a suit in Part. Court, at
Hartford, June 7, 1655: "Richard Fellowes Plaintif, Matthias Sen-
sion Def." in action for debt, with damage of £18. Also, Matthias
Sension Pltf., Stephen Beckwith Dft., in act. of defamation, dam-
age £10. And at Quarter Court, Hartford, First Thursday in Mar.
1655-6, he was brought into the Court, " Owing the Estate of Wm.
Cross. £3. 19. 4. (Norwalk Records, vol. ii. pp. 8, 28, 41, 53, 57, 62,
67,84,90).
In 1654 Matthias removed to Norwalk, Conn. Hall states that
in tlie " Table of Estates of lands and accommodations in 1655 " ap-
pear the names of Matthias Sention, Matthias Sention, Jr., and
Matthew Sention.* Matthias Sention, Sen., bought of Mr. Steeile,
* " Mntthias " is simply the Latin form of " Matthew," and the first Matthias
sometimes appears in the records as Matthew. If a third Sention appears in the
list of 1655 it was probably Mark and not Matthew.
First Generation 5
of Farniinf^ton, wlio inarriud tliu widow of" Ricliiird Seamcr, 4 acres.
" Granted, in addition 1, April 6, 16(51, 5 acres, bounded east by Com-
mon land, west by Town's Highway, north by Samuel Hale's home-lot,
now Robert Stewart's, south by Matthew Cainficld's home lot." On
March 5, 1657, Matth. Sention, Mark Sention, with Isacke More and
Ed. Nash, undertook to make and provide a good and sufficient wolfe-
pitt upon the other side, in some convenient place (Hall's History of
Norwalk, Conn., pp. 17, 23, il). Matthias Sention's " eare mark,
a croppe upon the necrc Eare and a slitt cross cutt in the same," was
Recorded Nov. 20, 1655. In a list of Freemen at Norwalk, taken
Oct. 11, 1669, appear the names of Math. Sention, Senr., Math. Sen-
tion, Jr., Marke Sention and Sanill. Sention (Col. Rec. Conn., ii. 522).
IVIatthias Sention's Will was dated Oct. 19, 1669, and he died in
Norwalk, in October or November of the same year. His Estate was
inventoried on Jan. 31, 1669-70. Ho mentions his wife in his Will
without giving her name ; wills to his " Mother Selle one cow and one
ewe," and " unto my dearly beloved brother and sister Hoit, Twenty
shillings apiece as a token of my love." On Jan. 3, 1670-71, the
Town of Norwalk voted that his son " Matthias Sension is to take
up his proportion of six acres to the hundred upon Elie's Nek, next
to his uncle Hoite." Probably this was Walter Hoite (Whitney, 573).
The Will of Matthias St. John, Sr., from the Fairfield Probate
Records, vol. 1665-75, p. 47, is as follows:
The Last will and testament of Mathias Sension Sen'', of Nor-
wocke made this 19th of October 1669: Revoking all former will:

granted liberty to make fence across the Highway, 166'! ; was granted
16 ft. of ground, 1665; was granted land, 1660-66; and appears in

At Town meeting Oct. 5, 1667, it was voted: "Cattle to be
put in the plantinge fed and kept there by Stephen that day, and
every day for a month they are to be fetched up by one standinge
man and another, to be ready at the soundinge of a home to go a
longe with him, and so to take their turnes until the months is out,
the time to goe out to fetch up the cattle is at noone ; and it begins
with Matthias Sention, Jr., and so longe with Walter Halt, and none
to goe but trained souldiers, and if any neglect they are to forfeite
2s, to the use of the Towne. Stephen Bcckwith hath promised to
give foureteene dayes, and also as it beginneth with Matthias Sention,
Jr., he is to give notice and warne the next over night against the

Capt. Samuel St. John came from Norwalk with his brother
Matthew and his father, and was an original proprietor of Ridgefield,
Sept., 1708, when 24 persons bought the land from the Indians. In
1709 they took possession of this 20,000 acres and divided them into
lots, of which No. 1 fell to Capt. St. John. He was made Sergeant
in 1708. A deed of Benj. Wilson and Samuel St. John, of Ridgefield,
to Thomas Fitch, names " our sister Deborah Olmsted, father John
Olmstead, our Honoured Mother-in-law Mrs. Elizabeth Lockwood, late
widow and rehct of our father," Jan. 20, 1710-11, signed Jane Wilson
and Rebecca St. John (N. L. Rec, iv. 124).
Lot No. 1, Ridgefield, is located at the S. end of Main St., E.
side, and is now (1890) occupied by John Keeler. It was "Granted
by ye Proprietors of ye Town of Ridgefield unto Serjeant Samuel
Saint John and recorded unto the said Samuel Saint John his heirs
and assigns forever, a certain parcel of land in the Township of said
Ridgefield Layed out for a Home Lott, with ye first Division added

No. 16 (from division of jMatthias Home lot 16), July 25, 1712. He
deeded land to Jolin Stirdevant, Aug. 10, 1710, recorded July 25,
1712. Jan. 15, 1719-20 he bought land of Jonathan Wood, recorded
Sept. 23, 1720. A deed from Abigail St. John, Apr. 28, 1720, to
Sanmel St. John, shows his wife, named as Rebecca. He lived at So.
Salem, N. Y., where Rebecca was a church member before July 21,
1752.
In 1715 Samuel St. John " was one of tlu-ee appointed to look

May, 1727 (Col. Rec, vii. 91).
He died before 1756, as his son Noah sold lot No. 1 in Ridge-
field to Jeremiah Keeler in Mar., 1756. In 1709 Samuel Sension deeded
land from the Estate of his father. Lieut. John Olmstead (N. L. Rec,
iv. 74). In 1710 Rebecca, wife of Samuel Sension, of Ridgefield, is
noted (N. L. Rec, iv. 124). In June, 1701, father Matthias St.
John, Sr., of Norwalk, calls him in deed, " My loving son Samuel of
Norwalk," and had a deed from him Apr. 5, 1710. Samuel and Mat-
thew sold an £80 right of Commonage in undivided land of Norwalk,
" which was my Honored Father's, Matthias St. John," to Nathan
Ketcham and John St. John, Mar. 15, 1720-21. P. 55 names "my
son Noah." Samuel and wife Rebecca sold to Lemuel ]\Iorse a home-
stead at Ridgefield, Feb. 24, 1728-9. On Feb. 13, 1740-1, Samuel
gave a deed to Ralph Isaacs " of ye town of Norwalk," and is de-
scribed as " Samuel Saint John lately of Ridgefield now living on

April 13, 1740, he, with 24 others, obtained a patent of 50,000
acres in the oblong (S. Salem Town Rec, vol. i. 70). Nov. 24, 1743,
he, with 23 others, deeded about 300 acres in the oblong to John
Osborne (S. Salem T. Rec, vol. i. 64).
On Mar. 3, 1752, we find reference to his widow Hannah, Nathan,
eldest son, the heirs of Elijah, dec'd., David, Sarah, and Anna, all
children of Nathan and Hannah St. John. The estate was dist. :
to the widow, land in Oblong, above the land of Paul Keeler ; to Nathan,
land in oblong at S. W. Ridge ; to David, land at Round Hill and ob-
long; to Rachel, land at Pompian Ridge and oblong (see N. L. Rec,

In an old State document in the " Senate House " at Kingston,
N. Y., a proposed settlement between New York and Conn., as to
division line, dated June 3, 1731, Nathan St. John is mentioned. The
land is apparently leased to him with others. A patent dated June
5, 1731, recites the settlement of the line between New York and (^onn.,
on a line parallel with the Hudson.

The will of Samuel St. John, the benefactor. No. 301 above, is
here given entire :
I Samuel St. John, of the City and County of New Haven, in
the State of Connecticut, being of lawful age and of sound and dis-
posing mind and memory, do make and establish this as and for my
Last Will and Testament.
First. I direct my Executors herein after named to pay and
discharge, within a reasonable time after my death, the expenses of
mv funeral, and^also all lawful claims against me.
Second. All the estate both real and personal of every kind and
description whatever, which I may own or have right to at the time
of my death, I give, devise and bequeath as is particularly declared
and expres.sed in the following Articles of this Will.
Third. Of the said estate mentioned in the Second Article of
this Will, I give the amount of ten thousand dollars, (.$10000,) to
each and every one of my brothers and sisters who shall be living at
my death, subject to the regulations and provisions hereinafter con-
tained.
Fourth. Of the said estate mentioned in the Second Article of
this Will, I give the amount of five thousand dollars, ($5000,) to each
and every one of my nephews and nieces who shall be living at my
death, subject to the regulations and provisions herein after contained.
Fifth. Of the said estate mentioned in the Second Article of
this Will, I give the amount of one thousand dollars, ($1000,) to
each and every one of my nephews and nieces in the second degree
who .shall be living at my death, subject to the regulations and provi-
sions herein after contained ; (meaning by nephews and nieces in the
second degree, the children of my nephews and nieces.)
Sixth. Each and every principal of each and every one of the
amounts of estate given by this Will as aforesaid, I give, devise and
bequeath to Isaac H. Townsend and Stephen D. Pardee, and the sur-
vivor of them, as joint tenants in fee simple and forever, as a dis-
126 St. John Genealogy
tinct fund, upon the trusts and for the purposes following — that
is to say : —
Upon Trust to hold the said each and every principal of the
said each and every amount of estate as a trust fund, during the life
of the person to whom the said amount is given as aforesaid, and
to manage the said each and every principal as they shall deem ex-
pedient, and to receive and collect from time to time the income,
interests and profits of the same and of the avails thereof, and to
pay over the nett proceeds of the said income, interests and profits
to the said person annually during his or her natural life, and in
the same proportion for the part of the year which may have elapsed
at the time of his or her death.
And upon the further Trust, at the death of the said person to
whom the said amount of estate is given as aforesaid, to convey, trans-
fer, and pay the said principal of the said bequest to the heirs at
law of the said person who shall then be living, in the same manner
and in the same proportions as the same would have descended or
be distributed to them, according to the present statute of distributions
of the State of Connecticut, if the said person had owned the same
as his or her own proper estate at the time of his or her death, and
had died intestate and solvent.
Seventh. The annual sums which I direct to be paid to my
brothers and sisters, and nephews and nieces, and nephews and nieces
in the second degree, severally, as fully expressed in this Will as
aforesaid, I intend for their respective personal use and benefit : — and
I, therefore, particularly provide that no sum or sums intended to
be paid as aforesaid shall under any circumstances whatever, be an-
ticipated, aliened, charged, or in any way incumbered, or by any
means diverted from the personal benefit of the person to whom in-
tended to be paid ; — and if the said person shall do any act, or if any
proceeding shall be had at law, or in chancery, or otherwise, by reason
of which act or proceeding he or she would be deprived, if the trust
aforesaid in his or her favor were to continue, of the personal receipt
or enjoyment of any sums or sum aforesaid, or any part thereof, at
the time of becoming payable ; then and immediately upon such act
or proceeding, the said trust for the payment to him or her of the
said annual sums shall cease, determine and become utterly void. —
And in that event, any sum or sums which shall thereafter be-
come payable as aforesaid prior to the death of the said person, the
said trustees shall retain in their own hands, and apply the same from
time to time, at their discretion, towards the support and maintenance,
in a suitable and becoming manner, of the said person and of his
or her family, or of his or her family alone if he or she cannot legally
be included in the provision ; and whatever sum shall remain in their
hands on the first day of January in any year not applied for the said
purpose, the said trustees shall immediately pay to the child or chil-
FiKiii Generation 127
dren of the said pt'rson then hviiifr, jiiid in ecjiial proportions if more
than one; and in default of such child and children then livinj^, the said
trustees sliall add the same to the principal of the trust fund from
which it accrued as part thereof.
And the provisions of this article of this Will shall apply severally
to all sinns and every sum, which shall from time to time accrue as
aforesaid as income from all and each of the trust funds aforesaid
respectively.
Eighth. All rights and interests which shall accrue or belong,
at any time or times, to any married woman under this Will, shall be
for her sole and separate use and benefit, free from and itidependent
of the debts, claims, control or interference of any husband whatever ;
and her personal receipts shall in all cases be effectual discharges for
all money which shall he paid to her, and for all estate which shall be
conveyed or transferred to her, pursuant to this Will : — and the pro-
visions of this Article shall apply to every married woman who shall
have rights or interests under this Will, whether she is now married
or shall hereafter be married.
Ninth. I do not intend that any parts or part of this Will shall
extend to or include any person or persons as devisee or devisees, or
legatee or legatees, whom the law does not or shall not allow to take
as such; and if the rules of construction shall, in any case or cases,
lead to a result different from mv said intention, I expressly provide
that the parts or part of this Will from which such construction may
arise shall not, in any case whatever, be void for that reason, but shall
be confined in operation to the persons or person whom the law shall
allow to take, as though the said persons or person only were reached
by the said parts or part of this Will.
Tenth. I hereby authorize and empower the trustees who may
hold any estate real or personal under this Will, to sell and dispose
of the same, or any part or parts thereof, and on such credit and
with such security for the payment of the purchase money as shall
be satisfactory to them, and to make good and sufficient titles to the
purchasers; and to invest the avails in such manner as they shall
deem expedient, and to vary investments from time to time at their dis-
cretion : — and I hereby authorize and empower my executors to sell
and dispose of any of my estate real or personal, or any part or
parts thereof, before distribution shall be made of such estate ; with
the same power, authority and discretion in relation to the same and
the avails thereof, in all particulars, which I have given the trustees
as aforesaid.
The acting executors or executor, or administrators or adminis-
trator, for the time being, under this Will shall have all the interests,
rights and powers given by this Will to all the executors ; — and the
acting trustees or trustee, for the time being, of any trust under
any part of this Will, whether appointed by this Will or otherwise
1~8 St. John Genealogy
in due course of law, shall have all the interests, rights and powers
given by this Will to all the trustees originally named for the said
trust.
Eleventh. I give and bequeath the sum of two hundred and fifty
dollars ($250) to each and every one of the following corporations
absolutely and forever, to wit, to the New Haven Orphan Asylum for
the objects and purposes of that institution; and to the Ecclesiastical
Society of the Congregational denomination in the town of New

Joseph Smith,
Timothy Fowler, SAMUEL ST. JOHN. (Seal)
Abner Austin.
All the St. Johns in this country are believed to have descended
from ]\Iatthias St. John, Sen., who, with a large family of sons and
daughters, settled in the town of Norwalk, in Fairfield County, Con-
necticut, before the year 1654. The name is written " Sention " on
the town records down to the year 1706, when it first appears as
" Saintjohn." In 1725 it is first written " St. John," and it was
generally accented on the first syllable down to the year 1800. Although
the town records are somewhat imperfect and do not make it abso-
lutely certain, yet the following appears to be the genealogy of that
branch of the family to which the late Samuel St. John belonged,
viz: Matthias, Matthias, IMatthias, Benjamin, Matthias the father
of Sanniol St. John. Matthias, the father of Benjanu'n, was one of
130 St. John Genealogy
the twenty-five persons who purchased the township of Ridgefield,
in that County, September 30th, 1708. (See Trumbull's History of
Connecticut, Vol. I, page 460.)
Benjamin St. John, the grandfather of Samuel, removed from
Norwalk to Canaan parish, now the town of New Canaan, in Fairfield
County, in 1744, with his family of four sons and four daughters,
and died there " about the close of the Revolutionary War."
His sons Benjamin, Caleb, Matthias, and David, all lived and
died in New Canaan, and left a numerous posterity. Matthias, the
father of Samuel, was married June 28th. 1758, to Naomi Weed,
daughter of Abraham Weed of the same place. He died March 20th,
1819, aged about 87 years— his wife died August 27th, 1780, at 46
years of age. They had eleven children, as follows : —
1st. Abraham, baptized March 25th, 1759.
2d. Sarah, baptized June 15th, 1760 — married to Isaac Keelev.
3d. Matthias, baptized August 29th, 1762.
4th. Esther, baptized July 8th, 1764, died in 1777.
5th. Enoch, born October 14th, 1765.
6th. Benjamin, born June 8th, 1767.
7th. Samuel, born January 27th, 1769.
8th. Anna, bom Nov. 13th, 1770 — married Matthew Benedict.
9th. John Trowbridge, born July 26th, 1772.
10th. Nathan, baptized November 16th, 1775.
11th. Esther, born March 15th, 1777 — married Benjamin Bates.
At the decease of Samuel St. John on the 4th day of November,
1844, but three of his brothers and one sister were living, viz: Enoch,
Benjamin, John T. and Anna wife of Matthew Benedict. Of these,
Benjamin St. John is now (August, 1852) the only survivor.
All the brothers and sisters of Samuel had children and grand-
children living at the time of his death, except the first Esther, who
died when thirteen years of age.
By the will of Samuel St. John three classes of Legatees were
created —
1st. His Brothers and Sister living at his decease.
2d. The children then living of all his brothers and sisters — that
is, his nephews and nieces.
3d. The grand children then living of all his brothers and sisters
— that is, his grand nephews and nieces.
The following is a statement of each branch of the family, em-
bracing the names of all the brothers and sisters of Samuel St. John,
who had children — of all his nephews and nieces who were living, or
who had children living at his decease — and of all his grand nephews
and nieces then living, but including none of either generation who
died childless prior to his death.

The foregoing is not a complete list of the descendants at the

of Samuel St. John, the Testator; because children have been bom
of the third generation since the death of said Testator, who, of
course are not Legatees; consequently no account of them has been

given to the Trustee of the Estate. Most of those, however, and
many of succeeding generations, will hereafter become interested in
the Will of Mr. St. John, as heirs of his Legatees upon their decease.

The following autobiographical reminiscences of Mr. St. John
were publish in the New York Herald:
" I was born in the town of Norwalk, Fairfield county. Conn.,
on the 1st of June, 1773. The St Johns were among the settlers of
Norwalk over two centuries and a quarter ago. They were Huguenots,
and were driven from France by religious persecution. Peter St. John
was my father's name. He was one of three brothers, all born in
Five Generations of St. Johns

St. John and Benjamin Seymour St. John, with Mrs. T. S. St. John and Miss Julia Gay
Sixth Genekation M'i
Norwiilk, My*'i" ''i"<l Daniel hciii^ tlio otlui- two. IMy fatliur lived
to be quite old, bcinj^ eif^'hty-five wiieu ho died here in Walton, in
January, 1811. At eifrjit years of" ag'e I was sent to Dutchess county
New York, where I remained four years. Then I went back to Con-
necticut and remained until I was twenty years old. Tlicn I joined
a party of surveyors, bound for Canada. That was in May, 179.'3.
We went in a sloop to New York, and then up the Hudson to Albany
in a sloop. There we hired wagons to carry our bagpfafre to Schenec-
tady, and we walked to that place throufrh the woods, and took bateaux
up tlie Mohawk river to Fort Stanwix. That is where Rome now
stands, and where the big battle took place between the Americans
and French at the time of the French war. From Fort Stanwix we had
our bateaux carried to Wood Creek, six or eight nn'les. We went
down Wood Creek to Oneida Lake and through it, by Three River
Point, to Oswego Fort. The British still had possession of that fort
and Fort Niagara and had garrisons there. At Oswego Fort I saw the
red coats. This was the 4th of June, 1793. I then returned to New
York city. Greenwich Street was then the most western street in the
city. I was walking in Greenwich Street, and saw a block of
new buildings with carpenters working inside. I entered one of 'em
and asked a man where the boss w'as. He said he was called the
boss. I told him I wanted work. 'Where are you from-f"' said he. I
told him from Connecticut. 'Oh, I don't like Yankees. They're
too apt to be trickish,' he said. His name was Pancoast, and he said he
came from New Jersey. I told him that was bad, but he couldn't help
being born there any more than I could in Connecticut. Then he
laughed and asked me if I was a workman. I told him I had noth-
ing to say as to that, but I had a recommendation from my father,
and I handed my letter to him. He read it, and when he got through
laughing at it he said, ' By God, I'll hire you ! ' While I was in New
York I was challenged to fight a duel by Pancoast. I declined to accept,
and that was the end of that scrape. After finishing that job I began
building a dock in the North River, near the Battery. This was the
first ever constructed in the North River, and when I went to New-
York there was no dock east of Peck Slip in the East River. The
dock was being built by old Governor Clinton, and was to be used
for storing stone on for the use of the city. I don't remember ever
having seen Governor Clinton on the work, l)ut his son-in-law — I
forget his name — was there often. I injured myself by heavy lifting
on the dock. The yellow fever visited the harbor and I took it. So
I returned home to Connecticut. That was in 179(5, the year that I
was married the first time. I remember a great deal about the revolu-
tionary war. I remember when the British burned Norwalk, and
I witnessed the burning. I was six years old. I had four brothers in
the war. I\Iy brother Justin was in the battle of Bunker Hill. I
can remember his coming in the house whae the war first broke out.
174i St. John Genealogy
and then going away again, after bidding my mother good-bye and
leaving her weeping bitterly. I couldn't understand it at the time,
but learned afterward that he had told mother he had enlisted, and
was going then to join the Continentals. I wasn't more than two years
old then. It must have been about the time they heard the news from
Concord and Lexington. I don't remember ever hearing my brother
speak of any incidents connected with the battle of Bunker Hill or the
war. When I was five years old a portion of the army, with a long
train of baggage wagons, passed through Norwalk on their way from
Boston to New York. My mother and I strained our eyes to get sight
of Justin, but he was with another division and we didn't see him.
" Peter was my own brother, my father being married twice. He
was apprenticed to a Tory shoemaker. When the British came to
Norwalk and burned the town he was sixteen years old. They burned
the place on Sunday. If there is anything in the world I can re-
member it is the burning of Norwalk. What a time there was when
the news came that the British were coming. The women and children
all fled to the woods and hid behind stumps and bushes. My mother
took me on her back and left the house for the woods. Gideon was then
home, sick from his stay on the prison ships, and could not be moved,
and father stayed with him at the house. The men formed a company
and went to defend the place. A few houses were not burned but they
belonged to Tories. I remember the Tories Betts and Hoyt ; their
houses were not burned. The Episcopal churches were all loyal, and
every minister got orders from the British, before the burning, to
leave the parishes. They all went off with the British except the
Rev. Mr. Avery of Stamford. Danbury was burned at the same time.
After the British went aboard the shipping the women and children
returned from the woods. My mother and I went home. We had
been there but a few minutes when we saw a company of British light
horse coming down the road, and we believed they were to continue
their work of destruction. My mother hurried with me out of the
house again and got down behind the bushes. The company stopped,
as we supposed, to get some beer. The British proved to be prisoners,
which our men had captured and disarmed. They were the only red
coats I saw during the war. I was six years old when this occurred,
I was ten years old when the British left the country. I remember
Roger N. Sherman, one of the signers of the declaration."
" Was there much demonstration made by the people when peace
was declared.'' "
" I guess you'd a thought so if you'd been there ! I don't know that
I ever saw such a universal turn-out. There was great doings for the
number of people, I tell you — nothing like it since. Such bonfires !
They'd take a log as big as they could raise up on it's end — say
twenty feet high when it was up. Around this they piled wood, clean
to the top, and as big round as this room. Then they put barrels of
Sixth Generation 176
tar on top of the pile unci fired it. Wlien the tar melted it ran down over
the wood and in the flames, and I tell you everything blazed. That
was the fall after I was ten years old. I am a centenarian who never
saw Washington — that is, so far as I know. Shortly after he got
his commission he passed throiigii Norwalk, hut 1 don't remember see-
ing him. Guess I never did. \Ve probably didn't know he was coming
until after he got there. News didn't fly then as it does now.
" I was married the first time on the Ulsi of December, 1796, to
Polly Seymour, in Norwalk. She was the daugiiter of Samuel and
Anne Seymour, and was one of twelve children. My first child was
born on the 25th of November, 1797, and the second in March, 1800.
" In 1802 I left Connecticut with my family to come to this place.
It was on the 1st of March. We came in sleighs, and were eight
days making the journey. The snow was so deep that we were three
days going the first thirty miles. It was nearly all woods here then.
I bought a farm up the East brook and cleared up 200 acres. In
180-1 my first wife died, leaving three children. I married Ann Bene-
dict, daughter of Deacon Ezra Benedict, in January, 1805, and in
1807 sold my farm and bought the grist mill in East Brook. The
next year I bought a farm four miles from here, on the 'Sopus turn-
pike, where I lived until my second wife died, in 1850. Since then
I have lived here, and had nothing but kindness from everybody. I
lived seven years with my first wife, over fifty with my second and
twenty-five with my daughter-in-law, and have yet to say that any
of them have ever given me an unkind word. There's something re-
markable for you to put down. I've had every malignant disease there
ever was, I believe, and no man ever suff'ered from sickness more than
I have. I've been scared to death once and drowned once, and I'm
alive yet," he said in conclusion.
" I have taken care of him for twenty-five years," said Mrs. St
John, " and to this day he has not been the least trouble or annoy-
ance. After his second wife died, in 1850, he came here and said
he wanted to come and live with us, as he was lonesome at home. He
lived four miles from here, on the Esopus turnpike, between here and
Hancock. We told him to come if he wanted to, and the next day
he did come and has been here ever since. He goes to bed winter and
summer at eight o'clock. As soon as the clock begins to strike eight
he commences to get out of his chair. We remove his coat and vest,
and he takes off" the rest of his clothes, and dresses himself in the
morning, coming out of his room with his coat and vest over his arm,
like a little boy. He is often the first one up in the morning, and
eats breakfast with the rest of us. We have to cut his food up on his
plate, and he eats with a spoon. He lies down a spell in the forenoon,
then after dinner generally sleeps an hour or two. It is something
remarkable that he is in better health now than he was when young.
He always was sickly, but does not have one sick spell now where he
176 St. John Genealogy
used to have a dozen. When he was ninety-nine he was weighed, and
then again when he was a hundred, and he had gained ten pounds.
I don't remember how much he weighed. During all the civil war I
read every word of war news, from the beginning to the close, to him.
He took a great interest in the war, and would have no one else to
read to him but me, although there were much better readers in the
house than myself. After the war was over I read the paper to him
until three years since, when his hearing became so bad that it was
too great a task. He is anxious as ever to hear the news, but appre-
ciates the difficulty of getting details to him and never asks for them.
This is a peculiar household. We have living with us two of our
grandchildren, who are orphans, and now young ladies. It has always
seemed strange that they, in the very morning of their lives could
content themselves here with three such old people as father, my
husband, and myself."

Recollections of Mrs. Pamell Sidwa_v;
Of events in the history of the family of
Gamaliel St. John, (No. 263) '
and
Margaret Kinsman Marsh, his wife.
Written in the winter of 1876-7.
My parents were from the towns of Norwalk and Kent, in the
State of Connecticut. My father was from Norwalk and my mother
from Kent. My mother, Margaret Kinsman Marsh, was the daughter
198 _ St. John Genealogy
of Cyrus Marsh, who was the first Presbyterian clergyman settled in
the township of Kent, in the State of Connecticut, according to the
annals of that state, and he was also one of the five young gentlemen
who constituted the frst class on whom Yale College conferred its
degree, as may be seen by reference to the catalogue of the Alumni
of that institution.
After Cyrus Marsh graduated, he was ordained a minister in
May, 1741, and sent as a missionary to the then new, if not frontier
town of Kent, to preach, not only to the people of that town, but to
a tribe of Indians known as the Scatacookse, living on a branch of the
Housatonic, of the same name.
Gamaliel St. John was born September 22, 1766 — died June 6th,
1813. My mother was born in Wilton. Connecticut, July 15th, 1768,
died April 27th. 1847. They were married in Kent, October 16, 1788,
and took up their residence in a house built by them in the village of
Danbury, Connecticut, where they lived for several years, and until
they had born to them five children, viz: Elijah Northrop, Maria,
Aurelia, Cyrus Marsh and Sarah. ,
Partaking of the spirit of " Emigrating to the West," they
moved to the town of Westmoreland, Oneida County, N. Y., where
was born their daughter Margaret. During their residence in Oneida
County, my father entered into contract with the proper persons
for the construction of a portion of the Turnpike from Albany to
Cayuga Lake. His contract called for the necessary work to be
done on a section of seven or eight miles between the Cayuga and
Owasco Lakes. The construction of that work necessitated the
removal to Cayuga County. During their stay in Cayuga, there
were born unto them three children, Parnell, Martha and John
Ransom. After living in Cayuga County six or seven years, and
finishing the section of the road according to contract and to the
satisfaction and acceptance of the other party, my father removed with
his family, in the year 1807, to a farm in Williamsville, (Niagara)
now Erie County — on which farm is yet to be seen the large spring
that constitutes the source of the " Mill Creek," at the village of
Williamsville, and which is one of the tributaries of the Tonawanda
Creek. But he did not move his family until he had made, the pre-
vious spring, a tour of observation, that extended all along the Ni-
agara frontier. The farm thus selected, was then the property of
Mr. Andrew Ellicott, a brother of Joseph Ellicott.
He had letters from Joseph Ellicott to Jonas Williams of Wil-
hamsville. As there is some discrepancy of opinion as to whether
Mr. Joseph Ellicott did or did not accompany him to Williamsville,
either on the occasion of his first or second visit, it is thought most
probable by those of the family now living, that at one or the other
of the times, Mr. Joseph Ellicott gave him the letters to Mr. Williams
and that Mr. Andrew Ellicott did accompany him to Williamsville.
Sixth Generation 1!)9
While living at Williamsvilk", there transpired the usual new coun-
try events traditional in the family, of mid cats and wolves among the
flocks, and the hunting of them hy the men and boys of the family —
of going to mill at Batavia or Niagara Falls there being none other
than a sawmill at Williamsvillc, built during the summer of 1807 —
the frame of which was put up by volunteer labor of the people, so
desirous were they of having some way of getting lumber. The saw-
mill was put up on Mr. Williams' land, and the necessary gearing and
iron work was furnished by Mr. Joseph Ellicott. After residing
three years on the farm at Willianisville, during which time was born
Le Grand Cannon St. John, father sold his farm to a man by the name
of Frink, reserving the privilege of cutting and hauling away logs for
his own benefit.
The family moved to Buffalo in the spring of 1810, having pre-
viously bought of Mrs. Chapman, a claim for Lot No. 53 (Holland
Land Co. Survey) on which was the frame for a house, 40 feet square,
standing on blocks, and back of which was an appendix of 20 feet
square, one and a half stories high, enclosed and floored, having a
chimney with the old-fashioned fire-place and bakingoven, by the side
of the fire-place. Lot No. 53 is directly opposite the " Tiff't House,"
on the site of Old Phoeni.x Hotel.
Into this apology of a house the family, then consisting of the
parents and ten children, moved on or about the 10th day of May,
1810. On the 28th day of May, 1810, in the chamber of the above
mentioned appendix, was born the eleventh child: Orson Swift St.
John.
The price paid the above mentioned Mrs. Chapman for Lot No.
53, and appurtenances was four thousand dollars, and two hundred
dollars paid to Mr. Ellicott procured the deed.
Mrs. Chapman, before her marriage to Mr. Chapman, was the widow
Hull, and the issue of the marriage with Mr. Hull, was Mr. William
Hull, the father of the present Mrs. O. G. Steele, and her deceased
brother, who received the name of her father, William, and died at
New Orleans, while in discharge of his duties as an officer in the
United States Navy.
When young, my father was apprenticed for seven years, from
the age of fourteen until twenty-one years of age. That being the
custom of the times, and taken from the English custom, and I think
prevails with that nation at the present time. The business to whicli
he was apprenticed was that of manufacturing implements of agri-
culture and tools used by various mechanics, such as plows, harrows,
scythes, planes, chisels, augurs, their woodings. etc., etc., in time he
became skilled in the use of the tools of the carpenter and black-smith.
This experience, which goes so far to make up the Yankee, was,
in a new country, of the utmost value to him as a contractor on the
Turnpike, as a farmer, and finally as a builder.
200 St. John Genealogy
When he went to get his deed from Mr. EUicott, he presented the
contract purchased of Mrs. Chapman, which was accepted as satisfac-
tory and the deed given. At that time, while in general conversation,
Mr. Ellicott made a solicitous request that he should undertake the
iron work of the then contemplated jail, to be built at Buffalo. Mr.
Ellicott wanted someone to engage in the work who was not only
capable, but responsible. Father said he could do all the work ex-
cepting the making of the locks. When Mr. Ellicott proposed to send
to Philadelphia for skilled work-men for that special purpose, a con-
tract was made between them — the Philadelphia experts sent for- — -
and the work under the supervision and personal labor of my father
was urged forward. At the same time, the work of the jail was going
on, the work of finishing the house bought of Mrs. Chapman was
progressing. There was also at that time in process of construc-
tion, the ^rst Court House, a frame building, being built by Oziel
Smith, under contract with the same parties who were on the part of
the public directing the building of the jail — the chief actor among
whom, was Mr. Joseph Ellicott. It may be said that Mr. Ellicott's
advice and influence in all these matters, was the next thing to law.
The lumber for the covering and finishing of the house purchased
of Mrs. Chapman, was all drawn from Williamsville ; the logs for
which had been cut and drawn to the previously mentioned saw-mill,
during the winter previous, or of 1809-1810.
The shingles for the house were all made during the same winter,
by my father and his boys, Elijah and Cyrus. Much of this material
was drawn in the winter, before moving to Buffalo, and the remainder,
afterwards, as it could be obtained from the mill. The cellar was
made equal to the dimensions of the house, and the stone composing
the walls was drawn from the quarries of Judge Erastus Granger, on
the banks of the " Three Mile Creek," East of the then village of
Buffalo. That creek was known, where it emptied into the Niagara
River, below the then ferry at the foot of Niagara Street, as the
" Ska-ja-qua-da," commonly pronounced " Cou-jack-a-da."
The road then, was in the usual condition of most, if not all
roads, through a new and timbered country — there being very little
done, except to cut the timber out sufficiently for the passage of teams,
and the making of causeways over the low and very wet grounds.
The road from the " Three Mile Creek," was at first called four
miles, and was throughout the entire distance from the Creek to the
" Cold Springs," covered with a log causeway. The road from what
was afterwards Walden's Hill to Chippewa Street, and to North
Church, (Dr. Johnson's lot) was covered with a log causeway.
Between Chippewa Street and where the North Church now
stands, was a log bridge over a ravine and low grounds, which extended,
nearly, if not the entire distance. Along this ravine, ran a small stream
Sixth Generation 201
heading on the l'^,!ist. sido of Main Street, in the rear of what was after-
wards the lot and liat. factory of Henry (?) Caniphcll.
The forest timber stood in its native condition on eitlier side of the
road, with exceptional little patches of clearinj^ of a few square
rods at lonp; intervals, as far down as to Tupper Street, and from
thence the woods were cleared away in spots, and more or less work done
as people " took up their lots," and were in need of timber, fire wood,
and a garden spot, to a spot as low down in the Main Street, as to
where the First Church stands. There was the first considerable clear-
ing. That cleared ground did not have the appearance of having been
cleared for any particular purpose, or according to any previous
design, but seemed from appearances, there being no stumps, but some
second growth of small brush, to have been a camping and council
ground of the Indians, and was then, in 1810, the locality where they
received their annuities from the Government, at the hands of the
Indian Agent, ]\Ir. Granger.
From Gillett's Hill, (The Terrace), to the Buffalo Creek, Main
Street was causeway, and the bridge over the Little Buffalo Creek was
made of logs, with a pier in the centre of the stream, and logs across
the stringers.
The road to and from the Indian Village was down Main Street
to the " Big Buffalo " Creek, and along the bank of the creek, passing
Pratt Ferry, up to Seneca Village.
The best road to Black Rock, was down from Gillett'si Hill, (Ter-
race) along the West bank of the " Little Buffalo " Creek, (Commer-
cial Street) to the "Big Buffalo" Creek, thence along the "Big
Buffalo " Creek to the lake ; crossing a small stream ten feet wide,
and tW'O and a half feet deep, and going around a small bay before
getting to the beach of the lake — thence down and along the beach of
the lake to " Sandy Town," thence, keeping close to the water, turned
around close to the " Black Rock," just where the canal enters the
" Black Rock " harbor ; thence down and close along the foot of the
hill, where the rail-road now runs until the ferry was reached, a
point at the foot of Niagara Street.
There was a longer and less inviting way by what was commonly
called the " Guide Board Road," now North Street. Niagara Street
had been marked and some work done.
The house of my father, and of which we have been speaking,
was finished in the fall and winter of 1810, with the pressing purpose
in view of holding therein the Ne^c Year Ball of the coming First of
January, 1811. That ball was held in the room intended for such
purposes, and was attended by parties from a distance, embracing the
whole " Frontier." The population was so sparse that they must nec-
essarily come from considerable distances, to make up in inmibers a
respectable party. The political party-strife which brought on the
202 St. John Genealogy
War of 1812, and the consequent personal animosities between the
Democrats and Federalists, ran so high at that date, as very unmis-
takably to show itself in the calling together of that dancing party.
There were a few Democrats present, but the principal number of
the party were Federalists. My father was a JefFersonian Democrat,
and a zealous supporter of aU the measures that tended to the declara-
tion and prosecution of the war.
During the summer of 1811, nothing of particular moment took
place in the then village of Buffalo, beyond the councils held by and
between the Ogdens with their interpreters. Parish and Jones on the
one part, and the Seneca Indians and their chiefs, assisted by Mr.
Granger on the other part. The part which Mr. Granger acted was
prompted and perhaps required by the U. S. Government, as its agent
for that tribe. The Chief, Red Jacket, was present at this and all
future councils and successfully opposed all overtures made for the
purchase of any portion of the lands which were held by the Indians,
under reservation and guarantee from the general government. His
councils prevailed with his tribe so long as he lived, but, not many
years after his demise, they were forgotten or over-ruled. General
Peter B. Porter had at first the exclusive right of purchase from the
Indians, which right he sold to Ogden — and time has proven the wisdom
of the Indian sale and removal, both for themselves and the city of
Buffalo. During the summer of 1811, political animosities and party
strife ran insanely zealous ; extending its bitter virus into individual
business and social intercourse; families were estranged from each
other, indulging in the severest reflections, which were not believed by
either party, and this very unprofitable spirit of crimination and re-
crimination pervaded the whole body politic, to the extent that their
children in school took sides, and like their parents, were not particular
as to the injustice of their invectives.
My father had, and still has, the reputation among those who
remember him, of being careful and deliberate of speech ; his counsels
to his family were, " Be careful and think twice before you speak."
My mother was of more irascible temperament. She was just, gener-
ous to the extent of her means, and in all great and dark trials, was
first timid, then firm, deliberate, calm and hopeful, relying upon her
Heavenly Father to guide her out of impending difficulties. Yet in
ordinary matters, she was impetous, irritable, impatient of opposition,
self-reliant, positive in her counsels, and imperative in her commands.
In all matters, after the situation was comprehended, she was, as we
shall hereafter sec. as far as it is possible for any woman to be,
equal to her task.
In the spring of 1810, just before the family moved to Buffalo,
my brother Elijah left Williamsville, went to Erie, was in the service
of the older Mr. Seth Reed, returned after an absence of three months,
and not being yet of age, until August, he handed over to his father, the
I

ni't earnings of Iiis tinu' up to the d.itt' oi' liis majority. Such was
tlio fronerally conceded and lawful duty of all minors, as held l)y all
people at that time.
Father took the money, but more from prudential motives than
selfish, as he was not of an acquisitive disposition.
During the following winter (1810-1811) my brothers, Elijah
and Cyrus, were sent to Albany with father's teams to " bring on "
goods for both Hart and Grosvenor. That trip led to the conception
(if the thought of making a business of that sort of enterprise, which
he afterward attempted to carry out.
In the spring of 1811, Elijah bought a stock of goods from Eli
Hart, for which father became responsible, and for which he after-
ward paid. With this outfit my brother traveled and traded all along
tiie South shore of Lake Erie as far West as the river Rasin —
exchanging his goods with the Indians and French half-breeds for
furs, white fish, and whatever else that promised to be available on
his return. He returned late in the next fall or early winter — made with
mv brother Cyrus, another trip to Albany, during the winter of 1811-
12 and in the spring of 1812, started with another stock of goods
bought of Abel M. Grosvenor, Sr., in a schooner, (name not known)
commanded by Captain Chapin, and bound for Detroit. While the
vessel was heading toward Maiden, on her way to the mouth of the
Detroit River, and near the entrance, was captured with all on board,
by the Queen Charlotte, which had been hastily fitted out by the
Canadians for such war purposes. The men who were taken were kept in
prison for three months and then set at liberty on the Niagara Frontier.
Nothing was heard from my brother from the time that he started from
Buffalo, except that the vessel was taken at Maiden, until he entered
the door of the homestead on his return. Everything was taken from
him except the summer suit which he wore — not even a pocket knife
was left to him.
When my brother left, the news of the declaration of war with
England, June 17th, 1812, had not reached the people of Buffalo, but
bv some unknown means or route, that fact had come to the knowl-
edge of the Canadians sooner than it did to the people of this side
of the river, and the Canadians taking advantage of their earlier
intelligence made prisoners of all our people who were on their side
of the line (see Howe, page 5).
Late in the spring of 1811, after having made the special trip
first mentioned above, for the purpose of "bringing on goods" for
Messrs. Hart and Grosvenor, my father drank in the idea of becoming
a common carrier, as a business, and with that view entered into
contracts with several of the merchants of Buffalo, for the transporta-
tion of their goods from Albany or Utica, as the season permitted —
going to Albany in the winter, and only to Utica in the summer, as
goods were then brought by open bateaux poled up the Mohawk
204 St. John Genealogy
River, to that place. He began that enterprise with two teams ; one
of three horses, before what was then called a Pennsylvania wagon, and
one of two horses before a common wagon. Not long after he added
the third team of two horses, making in all that season, seven horses
and three wagons. This was the beginning of through transporta-
tion by regular line from Albany to Buffalo.
The last trip made to Albany with three teams, was under the
guidance of my two brothers, Elijah and Cyrus, in the winter of
1811-12. Within a year from the time that this enterprise was in-
augurated, it went out of his hands, and in consequence of the war
measures, that business, under other management, took on such enor-
mous proportions, that there were necessarily established extensive lines
of transportation, involving the use of much more capital than he
had at command. The teams which made up those future lines, had in
number, as many, in most instances, as six to ten horses to one wagon,
with a tire six or more inches wide. The reasons for these wide tires
were, that as they were too wide for the ruts of the ordinary wagon,
their tendency was to level the turn-pike, without cutting deep, and
therefore were allowed to pass free of toll — an item not to be overlooked
in their economy. That mode of common carrying, in time, assumed
national importance, increasing with the settlement of the West, bring-
ing and carrying between the East and West, until it became beyond
a doubt, the evolving fact in the commerce of the state, which led to the
conception and construction of the New York and Erie Canal.
Previous, and up to the time that my father's family came to
Buffalo, the mails were carried, principally, on horse-back, they were
sent and brought twice or three times each week, and their arrival
was announced by the mail-carrier's horn.
During the summer of 1812 nothing, or very little was done
by the United States Government in the way of prosecuting the war
on this frontier, evidently knowing too little about its needs and con-
dition, and expecting the principal strife to be carried on upon the
ocean or somewhere else than this locality. The Canadians, however,
being more active, were too long in provoking a recognition of this
as the considerable field of their warfare. Yet nothing was done be-
yond the general trainings ordered by the State of New York, in
August or September, and a draft of militia for defensive purposes.
The battery (at first of one gun,) near the place called Fort
Adams, was put in place at or near Black Rock Ferry, now foot
of Niagara Street, and from there an irregular cannonading went on
with the Canadian side, (now Waterloo) for the space of six weeks.
Among the events which took place during that battery practice,
was the circumstance, among other and various trials of skill of the
late venerable Dr. Josiah Trowbridge, then an enterprising young
man, so sighting his gun, as at the second discharge, to knock the
ram-rod hand spike from a Canadian gunner's hands, and for a brief
Sixth Generation 205
space of time, dispersed their gunners and qiililcd their gun. Not
long after the query came across the river, as to who handled our gun
on that day. The circumstance of my brother Cyrus digging from
the bank just under or below our battery, a cannon ball fired by the
Canadian battery has been set forth in a paper by the late Henry
Lovejoy, who helped my brother bring it home.
It was, I think, an eighteen pound shot ; slung with a handker-
chief on a pole, and with one end of the stick on the shoulder of each,
tiic i)oys Ijrought it into town. After many years it disappeared in
the first furnace, which was in Reese's blacksmith shop. Of the regi-
ment formed in Buffalo and vicinity. Dr. Cyrenius Chapin was made
Colonel — the father of the late William Miller was Major — William
Hull, a Captain, (Asaph) Atking a Lieutenant, and many of the
active young men were called upon to fill the non-commissioned offices.
Records of which can be found that are more definite than any indi-
vidual memory can be. (Doubtful) They were probably not commis-
sioned.
Politics ran high in spirit, and personal animosities were fearful.
The social and communal frenzy was beyond description, all giving
advice, and no one taking it, no concentration, no head, no effective
purpose. All were bad people but they who were criticising. If
people attended to their own interests and were prosperous, they
were enviously denounced, and the source of their prosperity ques-
tioned. The opinions of the envious persons, were, as usual, of no
permanent value, except to tear down themselves and build up the
envied. On the third day of October, 1812, my sister, Aurelia St.
John, was married to Asaph Steijbins Bemis. by Judge Oliver For-
ward. On the ninth day of November following, my brother Cyrus
Marsh St. John, after returning from a hunting expedition with
Elijah, through the inclemency of the weather and the swampy nature
of the country, contracted the disease then epidemic, commonly called
the " camp distemper," and died after six days' sickness. That dis-
ease was evidently, from its description, inflammation of the Larynx
and Bronchia; in some instances involving the Tonsils, and in many
respects answering in symptoms to the disease known now as " Dyph-
theria." Soon after this event, on returning home from the funeral,
father was taken down with the same disease, but in consequence of
the persistent efforts of Mr. Lccouteaulx, who was by professipn a
druggist, with his French apparatus for steaming the throat with
herb teas, it is believed by the family, the disease was overcome. The
apparatus above mentioned, was a small pot with a long flexible tube,
on the end of which was an ivory mouth-piece. The ivory end was in-
serted back into the fauces as far as possible, and respiration, at least
the inhalation, was conducted through it. That brought on an ac-
tive secretion and suppuration, and with it relief. Dr. Ebenezer John-
son, the attending physician, thought this case one of Quinzy or
206 St. John Genealogy
" Laryngitis " and " Tonsilitis." Other members of the family were
sick with the same disease, with various symptoms and degrees of
violence, but in time all recovered. During the sickness of the family,
or soon after that date, my sister Aurelia Bemis, and husband, rented
the back ro.om of Mr. Forward's house, at the solicitation of Mr. and
Mrs. Forward, as they said " to keep soldiers from quartering there."
The building had two rooms on the first floor and a chamber — Mr.
and Mrs. Forward occupying the front room — Mr. and Mrs. Bemis
the back room ; the chamber being used as the post office. The dimen-
sions of that building cannot now be defined.
The street door of the building opened into the room occupied by
Mr. and Mrs. Forward, there being no hall. The entrance to the
back room was by a side door — and the way to the post office was by a
flight of steps up and across the front of the building.
After the six weeks' cannonading between Fort Adams and the
Canadian side of the Niagara River, and while General Smyth, with
the forces under him, were lying here, the naval officers came, say in
November 1812. Being young and ambitious, restless, anxious for
active service, they solicited from the officer in command the privilege
of attempting to spike the British guns. General Smyth gave the
order, the attack was made, the cannon spiked, the return a success,
but with what casualties to our men, if any, is not recollected. In
the latter part of the winter, General Smyth was relieved by Colonel
Preston — all of which is, or should be, a matter of record.
The next event of any moment during the winter of 1812-13, was
the military ball held in the house of Mrs. Joseph Landon, given by
the officers stationed in this vicinity, in honor of Governor Lewis on
the occasion of his visit to Buffalo. Of course Governor Lewis was a
Democrat, then called Republicans, the opposite party were called
Federalists. He had been elected as a Jeffersonian War Democrat.
My father being an ultra-Democrat, very readily affiliated with him,
and was present at the ball, though not yet in the best of health, ac-
companied by my sisters, Maria and Sarah. The Governor danced
but once that evening, and that with my sister, Maria St. John, as
partner.
In the spring of 1813, the schooners John Adams and Niagara,
(Caledonia) were " cut out " from the Canadian shore by a private
party, but cannot say who, without any particular order or com-
mand, and were brought back to this side of the river, and moored
or anchored in the stream, just above Squaw Island. These two ves-
sels were lying there, say May, 1813. The Adams certainly in June.
During the winter all the naval stores had been moved to Erie as a
better base of naval operations.
During the spring of 1813, Colonel Preston made his preparations
for attacking Fort Erie. By that time my father's health was so far
recovered that he was able to ride down to Black Rock nearly every
Sixth Generation 207
day; ;incl it was understood by tlie family that lie was in genurai con-
sultation respecting the feasibility of measures to be taken, by and with
Colonel Preston.
The Democrats being in the minority in the township of Buffalo,
were the subjects of a vast deal of uncharitable vituperation, but were
none the less a unit in all that pertained to war measures. General
Smyth was a Federalist ; Colonel Preston a Democrat, and as such,
inspired his party friends with a hope that something would be done,
worthy of the country. When everything was in readiness, the army
was ordered to cross the river.
Previous to the order being given to cross, there was an under-
standing between Colonel Preston and Colonel Christy, stationed at
Fort Niagara, that on a given day, in the morning early enough to be
on the Canadian side by day-light, there should be a simultaneous
movement on Fort Erie and Fort George ; and it was further arranged,
that in the event of either army succeeding, a messenger should at once
be dispatched to the other. As Colonel Preston's army was to cross
below Fort Erie, and that under Colonel Christy was to cross, I think,
above Fort George, while forces from the fleet were landing below, the
messengers were expected to reach their destination without much
difficulty, particularly as they were to be prepared with the proper
means of signs by which they should know each other, and be recog-
nized as proper and reliable persons by the officers in command. About
the landing of our troops or crossing at Fort George, I am not positive.
On the morning of the crossing of the armies, ]\Iay 27th, 1813,
my father took an early breakfast and left home for the scene of
action at Black Rock, saying to the family, that he would go down
and see how Colonel Preston had succeeded in crossing — and that
he would be back in due season, evidently intending to quiet my mother's
anxieties about his health being such as to warrant his crossing the
river. As he did not return, as was expected, a messenger was sent
to inquire and learn of his whereabouts — who on returning, informed
the family that his horse was in the stable at Black Rock, and himself was
seen on one of the last boats going over the river. He went directly
up to Fort Erie, as he afterwards narrated, which had by that
time been possessed by the forces under Colonel Preston, who was
looking anxiously for someone acquainted with the country, to be a
bearer of dispatches to Colonel Christy. My father volunteered to go.
As a prudential measure he was dressed in a British Sergeant's
uniform, and carried as a provision against emergencies, a flag of
truce. His acquaintance with the people on the Canadian side, many
of whom wore friendly to the United States, enabled him to know
where, and to whom to apply for fresh horse and food, which he was
supplied with, at the distance of about twelve miles below Fort Erie.
He rode the distance as soon as proper prudence would permit, and
reached Fort George late in the afternoon, at about the same time,
208 St. John Genealogy
or very soon after our troops took possession of it ; which they
were enabled to do after much harder fighting than at Fort Erie.
As he entered Fort George, Colonel Christy was casting about
for someone to be the bearer of dispatches to Colonel Preston.
The dispatches borne by him from Colonel Preston gave to Col-
onel Christy the desired information respecting the situation of af-
fairs at Fort Erie. After taking his supper, (a soldier's supper)
he was mounted on a fresh horse, and started back as bearer of dis-
patches from Colonel Preston, in Fort Erie. He accomplished his
task that night, having made a journey, not without peril, of nearly
seventy-nine miles in less than twenty-four hours. At his time of
life, and his health considered, that effort was one of great fatigue.
He rested and slept a part of the second day. When he arose from his
sleep. Colonel Preston met him, saluted him and thanked him for his
services, and tendered him a certificate setting forth that his services
were of great value, and worthy of consideration and reward by the
Government — at the same time, intimating that he would reward him
in any other way that he would name. Father's answer was, that he
was serving his country, and as he had previously pledged his services
to the country in various ways, he was too well paid by the happiness
which he experienced, as he rejoiced in the success of the day. His first
impulse was that he did not think the certificate necessary — but as
Colonel Preston insisted on his taking it, saying that he (Father) could
not say when or where it might or might not, be of service to him, he
did take it, and witnesses are hving who read it. When the village
was burned it was destroyed by the Indians, together with all of his
valuable papers. Colonel Preston suggested to him that he would do
well to take from the spoils some memorial of the events of the day.
On looking about among the effects of the British officers, there were
found many elegant things, particularly in the line of clothing. It
was finally decided that he should take an undress suit of exquisite
material, which by trial was found to fit him. That suit was after-
wards much admired and coveted by many of the young American
officers. The family knew nothing of his doings, from the time that he
was seen on the boat crossing the river, until his return. Not long
after his return, say three or four^ days. Colonel Preston sent a spe-
cial messenger, requesting him to come over to Fort Erie, as he
(Colonel Preston) wished to see him. On going over to Fort Erie he
learned that Colonel Preston wanted to know where the ferry boats
were.
After much counselling as to the ways and means by which the
military supplies for the army could be got across the river, he was
requested by Colonel Preston to go and hunt up the ferry boat and
see that it was made available for that purpose. He engaged to
do so. On coming back to this side of the river, he found that a Mr.
Dean had some special grants from the state authorities, giving him
Sixth Generation 209
control over the ferry, but tliat in oonseqiionce of the war, he had for
a time, at least, ahaiidoiied his rif^lits, and had taken his boat down to
Ska-ja-que-da Creek, and sunk it. Father went down to " ("onjoc-
kada " Creek, calling on Mr. Benjamin Bidwell, a young man then
living near that creek, and engaged him as a ship carpenter to help
repair the boat in the event of its Ijeing found. It was found deep
in the mud and seriously broken, but the bottom, on examination, was
found to be sound. It was pried up and with much difficulty got
in shape to be repaired. Mr. Bidwell was the chief worker in mak-
ing tlie necessary repairs, in whicli he was more or less assisted in
various ways by others, among whom was my brother Elijah. In
the meantime, Colonel Preston was urging that the work be expedited,
and that father should take charge of it when done. That he refused
to do, beyond getting the boat ready and sending it over to the Ca-
nadian shore. In the mean time he had talked with brother Elijah,
advising him to take charge of the boat, in preference to his going
on another trading expedition up the lake, as he was desirous of doing.
Bv dint of severe effort, the boat was, by Saturday night of
June 5th, 1813, thought to be fit for service, and the next day, Sun-
day, June 6th, everything as far as it could be was in readiness for
delivery. Elijah remained downi where the boat was, hut father re-
turned home Saturday evening — ^he left again very early Sunday
morning. After making a call for volunteers to help take the boat
over, and getting his men together, they were by nine o'clock A. M.,
under motion. There were in all nine persons on board. Of the num-
ber of men so engaged, there were five soldiers, wishing and waiting
to go over — a Mr. George Lester, a tanner by trade, from Cold
Spring, who had a horse with him — and a young lad from up in the
country, who afterwards proved to be Mr. Lester Brace, who had asked
as a privilege to go over in the boat — Mr. Brace was born July 1790,
and at that time twenty-three years old in July following — my brother
Elijah, twenty-six years old, acting as steersman, and father, forty-
seven years old, directing the whole. The boat was headed up the
stream until they had reach a point where, as Elijah thought, they were
high enough to pass the cable of the Schooner John Adams, then,
as before mentioned, lying there at anchor. Elijah repeatedly sug-
gested that they were high enough up, but father, more cautious, ad-
vised going still fartlier up the stream, until they sliould reach a
less doubtful point. They went farther up.
When they did strike to cross the river, they soon found that
by reason of the inexperience of the men, of their want of skill in
handling the boat in a rapid current, of which they had little or no
knowledge, they were making no encouraging progress toward Canada
I)ut were floating directly down upon the cable of the John Adams, which
had been their special reason for caution. In spite of their efforts to
avoid it. the struck the dreaded cable, up which the scow made a
210 St. John Genealogy
rapid slide, turning completely over, and bottom side up floated away
down the river. In an instant all were in the water. The sailors on
board the schooner threw ropes to those who were within their reach,
and drew them on board, the citizens, as soon as possible, started out
in row boats to their rescue, but they passed by Elijah, who was so
close to the shore that they thought he would be able to save himself.
Why he did not reach shore was a matter of much speculation in opinion
afterwards, as he was known to be a good swimmer. There was a
mark on his forehead, indicative of some injury, probably received
Avhen the scow capsized, causing him to become faint, or otherwise
exhausted, if not unconscious. They succeeded in saving the soldiers
and two citizens. The soldiers' names are not known ; but the two citi-
zens were Mr. George Lester, of Cold Springs, and Mr. Lester Brace.
There were three soldiers, names not known, who were drowned, their
bodies being afterward picked up below the Falls, and two citizens.
The citizens were my father and my brother Elijah.
The horse of Mr. George Lester, of Cold Springs, swam to the
sore and was recovered. In two or three days, or as soon as Mr.
George Lester could find himself suiBciently recovered to call on our
family, he came into town from Cold Springs, and gave us the details
of what took place in the boat and while in the water. While in the
water my father and Mr. George Lester were assisted by the buoyancy
of a rail which they had the joint possession of, and which they hoped
would be the means of keeping themselves above water, until help could
reach them ; but they soon realized that it was not sufficient for the
two, and that one or the other must relinquish it. They discussed the
chances of being saved, and on Mr. George Lester saying that he
could not swim father let go of the rail and he was lost. The body
of Elijah was found on the ninth day after the accident, or on the
15th of June, 1813, close in to the shore, among some bushes, not
far below where he was last seen swimming, and was brought to Buf-
falo by Asaph S. Bemis. The body of my father was found on the
fifteenth day after the accident, on the 21st of June, 1813, as low
down the river as half way to Tonawanda.
It was discovered by Mr. E. D. Efner, and his partner, Mr.
Sackett. Those gentlemen had the body secured, through the help
of someone living on the bank of the river, and then returned to
Buffalo, giving up their mission to Tonawanda, where they were going
on business. On their informing the family of the facts, Mr. Asaph
S. Bemis went down to the place where the body was secured, and
brought it to Buffalo.
Those events threw the family into the deepest gloom and
despondency. The future before our mother and the older members of
the family can be better imagined than described. The chapter of
their misfortunes was not yet ended, and their salvation from wreck
was fortitude.
Sixth Generation 211
The family remaining was composed of our iimtlicr and nine
cliildren, six daufrhtors and three sons; the respective ages of the
three sons were eight (8), six (6) and three (3) years.
Our family were in the large house, and the sign had previously
been taken down. It was now evident that they could not conduct the
house as a public house, and therefore arrangements were soon after
made to lease it to Mr. Mosely Abel ; afterwards a resident of
Fredonia.
Our mother administered upcm the estate of Gamaliel St. John
deceased, sold personal property, paid debts, struggling on in an
unsystematic way generally, and at great disadvantage.
Immediately after the lease was made with Mr. Abell, she went
out to Clarence, where Mr. Otis R. Hopkins lived, and bargained for
the house and lot (S-i) adjoining on the North side of the old home-
stead, or large house, so rented to Mr. Abell. and the family moved
into that house, so purchased from Mr. Hopkins, where they lived when
the village was burned.
Colonel Preston's stay at Fort Erie was of short duration. In
less than one month, he, with his command, was ordered to another
field, where the demand was made urgent, there being no promise of
any further or immediate necessity for troops in this vicinity. The
removal of the forces under Colonel Preston to a point somewhere on
the frontier East of this, left Buffalo and its vicinity unprotected,
except by the militia. The people were in a feverish state of excite-
ment— everything was in an unsettled and unstable condition — the
timid, uncertain of their position, were devising plans of safety for
their families, moving and countermoving, and at last, doing that
which as often as otherwise, proved to be unsafe, and void of good
judgment.
In the midst of this state of things, our mother, like all true
mothers, was ready to jeopardize her life for the future interests of
her family.
The large house, as before stated, had been rented, and the first
quarter of the year's rent had been paid in advance. With this small
capital the family took possession of the new purchase. It was a
small, one and a half story building, unfinished, being only inclosed,
or the frame covered, and the floors laid, but standing on the walls of
a good cellar. In dimensions on the ground it was 22 ft. on the front,
running not more than 20 or 22 ft. back, possibly 22 ft. square. It
stood quite by itself, on the West side of Main St., in an open space,
without fence or shrub about it, and back from the line of the street
25 ft.
Into that unfinished building the family stowed themselves away
as best they could, with a work-bench on the lower floor, and the joiners
working with all due diligence to get it in shape for their greater com-
fort. When finished the house was constructed with a four-paneled,
St. John Genealogy
street door, in the centre of the front of the building, with a fifteen
(15) light window of 7 x 9 glass, in line with the two below. A
chimney and fire place stood at the centre of the West end of the
building, in line with, and facing the street door. The street door
opened without any hall or porch directly into the main room. On the
right, as one entered from the street, was a bed room in the North-
east corner, half the length of the house, say 7 x 10 ft. further on and
adjoining this room, and to the right of the chimney, in the North-
west corner of the building was a room of the same size, used as a
stairway to get into the chamber, and as a passage-way out of the
back door, and in which a scant place was appropriated for a small
bed. On the left of the chimney in the South-west corner, was a cup-
board for dishes and what was requisite for the table and cooking. The
chamber was divided into two rooms ; the smaller bed-room, being on
the South side and running the whole length of the house, say 7 x 20
or 22 ft., with a window 12 lights, 7x9 glass in the West end;
there was also a window 12 lights 7 x 9 at the head of the stairs, in
the West end of the main room and on the North side of the chimney.
The eaves-troughs were worked out of a white wood or cucumber tree,
and each was of one solid piece.
With this state of things prevailing in the town, the people were
suddenly called upon (Oct. 13, 1813) to give quarters to the troops
drafted or called from the militia to defend the frontier. (See How,
page 8, right hand column.) In the summer or fall of 1813, some
of our people of Buffalo, not properly organized or connected with
the army or Government, went over to Canada under the guidance of
Colonel Chapin, and were engaged in a work and various enterprises,
with which I am not conversant as to character, but about which there
were many severe criticisms and caustic remarks. While they were
over there, they were made prisoners, and soon after, the much vaunted
and heralded retaking of themselves took place. (See How, page 9,
at bottom. )
The burning of Queenstown and Newark, was a measure that
our mother, in common with others, boldly denounced as an exhibition
of wantonness only fit for savages, and in all her conversations, ac-
cused the perpetrators of that act, of exhibiting a bravado that only
belonged to cowardice and motives as mercenary as the cow-boys of
the Revolution. She was wont to quote the Biblical maxim, " What you
sow, that shall you reap." They sowed the wind, and in due time we
reaped the whirlwind. (See How, page 8, Right hand.)
The people of Buffalo were kept in a state of unrest by the nightly
firing of cannon and other alarms, to keep the people vigilant, and to
let the enemy, if any in hearing, know that our defenders were around.
This state of things went on, with various minor events until the
morning of the 30th of December, 1813.
The British had crossed the Niagara during the night before, and

that morning appeared in sight on Niagara St root. (Black Hock
ItoJid.) Tlic Ciuiadiaii Indians were coming throiigli tlio woods fiom
Black Rock, scattered as far North as the " Guide JJoard Hoad,"
now North Street, and were driving and killing our scattered people,
wherever they overtook them. Among the citizens killed were IMr.
Roop, the father of the late Henry Roop (Harry Roop) and Sammy
Helms. The stalwart Soth Grosvenor and his friends with the only
gun at command, had stationed themselves at or near the junction of
Main and Niagara Streets, and were doing such good service with it
as the British were coming up Niagara Street, as to bring them to a
halt. While they were so engaged, Colonel Cyrenius Chapin appeared
with a flag of truce, and ordered the men to " cease firing." Grosvenor
told him to " go about his views, if he liked, they intended to fire the
cannon." Grosvenor and friends were so encouraged by their success,
that their ambition and zeal got the better of their judgment, so far
as to overload the gun, when it reacted with sucli violence as to become
dismounted.
Grosvenor started for help, to assist him in putting the cannon
back on the carriage, and came to our house, with the hope of finding
some one or more for that purpose. Not finding any one there stout-
hearted as he was, he could not suppress his tears as he said to my
mother, " If I had help to put the cannon up again, I could drive the
British back."
In the mean time Chapin went forward with his flag of truce,
and capitulated for the saving of many of the houses, his own included,
from the torch of conflagration, while the rest were burned. Neither
of our houses was mentioned in the capitulation, and the large house
was fired that day, but the flames were extinguished by Sarah, (after-
wards Mrs. Wilkinson), drawing water, and mother, Maria and the
hired man, carrying and throwing it on the fire. The next day, (third)
or before the British finally left, they burned it. The smaller house
was neither included in the capitulation, nor fired. The people of
the town had been fore-warned of the approach of the enemy and as
a general thing had fled.
The British and their Indians left on the 31st of December, but
the Indians, under tlie immediate direction of Lieutenant Wm. Carr,
(an under officer) a half-breed, returned the third day, and burned the
large house, as he said under peremptory orders.
Here ends the narrative of Mrs. Sidway (Parnell). I was called
away to Ohio, and never found it convenient to have another inter-
view with her upon the subject.
In December, 1876, I wrote my sister, Martha St. John, now Mrs.
Skinner, to send me her recollections — and in due time I received from
her the following letter, which I have copied for more facile reading.
(I send — give — you the original).

THE LETTERS OF MRS. MARTHA ST. JOHN SKINNER.
Clarance Place, Dorchester,
Near Boston, Mass., Dec. 22, 1876.
Dear Friends : —
We have found the weather cold, and no disposition to write, till
I fear it is late.
Well, I will proceed to tell you about Buffalo. There were in
Buffalo, just before the burning, from two to four thousand drafted
and volunteer militia. They were encamped nearly in front of the
old Court House, and when ordered to march to Black Rock, for
the purpose of preventing the British from crossing, they went, I
think, down Eagle Street (possibly Court). The house which mother
bought from Otis R. Hopkins was only covered, but had the windows
in, as it had been occupied by Mr. John Root, and his wife, (Christiana)
and also by Alva Sharpe's daughter, Matilda, who was afterwards
Mrs. Dickinson. When our family moved into that small house, which
was 22 ft. front, and running back not more than that. To make it
comfortable, as the winter was a very cold one, mother, assisted by
the children, hung the inside of the house, next to the walls, with
blankets and quilts.
As I said, such a great number of troops had marched to Black
Rock, (all the people felt safe,) Mrs. Pomeroy and her daughter
Minerva, afterwards Mrs. Champlin, and Mrs. Abell, wife of Mosely
Abell, and three children, were sitting up at our house, listening to
hear the guns at Black Rock, supposing we were safe — when suddenly
the alarm gun boomed up with an awful burst of thunder, which
aroused everybody, and people were seen flying every way for safety.
We were soon prepared for a start, and Mr. Bemis, whose house was
opposite ours on the East side of Main Street being able with his
wagon and horses, to carry his family and part of ours, we were all
packed in, three girls and three boys, with beds, blankets and clothing,
leaving mother, Maria and Sarah at the house, and we drove out Main
Street, until we came to North Street, there we met our Seneca Indians
retreating, and the Canadian Indians pursuing and firing on them.
The bullets came whistling by us and Mr. Bemis, not liking the music,
turned his course and drove back, and said to mother, (as we were
flying past) that we would be compelled to go the other road on the
L.ake shore, but that he would return as soon as possible, and take away
the remainder of the family. As we passed the head of Niagara
Street, which was the place of the alarm gun, we looked down the
street and saw the British army arrayed on Niagara Square, and a
person before them, on horse-back, facing them, holding a white flag
over his shoulder. The gun had been fired by the command of Seth
Grosvenor, as it was too heavily loaded, it dismounted, and he could
Sixth Gknehation 215
not fTjithcr tofTctlier enouffh help to pfct it back. When we nrrivcd
lit the ferry, one mile up the crook, cnllofi Pratt's Ferry, we wore coin-
[lollcd to wait our turn to cross; the ice was not thick enouf^h to
drive ()\'or, althouffh people could walk across.
After crossinnr we drove up the Lake shore. The people came
flyinpf by us, some one way, some another. There was Mrs. Atkins,
who had fallen off the horse into the quicksand, with her baby. We
came to Mr. Barker's tavern, eight miles from Buffalo. Mrs. Barker
was very sick, and died on the 10th of January. We pursued our
journey on toward Willink, as wo were waiting for our way over the
crook, wo saw tlio smoke of the burning village, coming over the trees,
so wo knew it would be of no use to return. It was past 12 o'clock
noon-day, when we left ]\Ir. Barker's and wo found snow and night
coming on. We had a heavy load of household goods, and Mr. Bomis
and his wife and their oliild. a baby — my sister Margaret (Mrs. Foot),
niv sister ParncU, ]Mrs. Sidway now, and myself, (Mrs. Martha St.
John Skinner) — my brother John Ransom St. John, of Lockport —
brother Le Grand Cannon St. John, and yourself, Orson Swift St.
John, the youngest child three years old.
Now to our journey from Barker's to Willink. " The way was
long and the night cold," when we were about three (3) miles from
the tavern at Willink, something in the road, I believe a very steep
place, the horses pulled so hard, something about the wagon broke, and
we were compelled to get out of the wagon. So we three sisters walked
along ahead, leaving the rest of the party with the wagon. The
snow was deep and the road was strange, and we could hear nothing of
our friends we had left behind us. Two or three roads came together
at one place.
We were unable to determine which road to take. Soon I heard
a loud roaring in the woods, and I looked and saw a ball of fire com-
ing, as I thought, from Buffalo, which might be some of the fire from
the burning houses, lilown over the tops of the trees. We stood still,
till that passed — then another, then another, which were like meteors
throwing off fire.
We then pursued our course, following or taking the road over
which the meteors flew. After day-light, wc arrived at a log tavern.
I do not remember the name of the people who lived there. We wont
in the first room we could, and that was a large room, with a large log
fire. We wore nearly benumbed with the cold — and when we ap-
proached the fire, I saw Mrs. Sophia Pratt, wife of Samuel Pratt, and
mother of Mr. Samuel F. Pratt, late of Buffalo. She was sitting in
one corner watching some cooking going on for breakfast. She reached
out her hand and took my hand, and drew me to her, and placed me
between herself and the fire keeping my hands against her head and
face to drive out the pain from my fingers, and saying kind words and
comforting us all she could. I often think of her and think what a
216 St. John Genealogy
dear good woman she was. We were getting quite comfortable, she
was preparing for breakfast, with baking bread, frying meat, with the
most savory smell of sausage. Presently there came in, all nearly
frozen, Mr. and Mrs. Bemis and the baby, and our three httle brothers,
John R. St. John, Le Grand C. St. John, Orson S. St. John; they
had all come on horse-back.
They had left the wagon, load and all, and taken the horses.
]\Irs. Bemis on one horse with her baby in her arms, and one of the
little boys behind her on the horse. Mr. Bemis took the other horse,
with one little boy in his arms, and the other behind him — they arrived
all safe but very cold. As soon as she could get warm enough, Mrs.
Bemis commenced her preparations for breakfast, making a large
boiler full of chocolate and all that could be gathered together for a
comfortable meal.
Mr. Samuel Pratt told me, one time when I met him at a party
at Mrs. Sidway's, that she, his mother, had her bread ready to bake and,
finding she could not bake it in Buffalo, she put it in a pillow case, and
carried it to Willink to bake.
I think Mr. Bemis procured a sleigh to proceed on with. We
left the house full of people, many of whom went no farther. I saw
two of Mr. Cyrenius Chapin's daughters, whom the Buffalo Gazette
said, walked all the way from Buffalo.
Now, we will proceed on our jurney, through Hamburg and
Boston, over hills so high that it seemed as if we were going into
the clouds. We arrived at Warsaw, which was in a valley — a pretty
place, with a long bridge, I believe, over the Genesee River. We stayed
there, or not far from there, until Mr. Bemis could return to Buffalo,
as we knew nothing of the fate of those we had left at Buffalo. I
cannot say that Mr. Bemis came back to us. I think it was the hired
man, with horses and sleigh, that came and carried us all back.
We learned they were alive and the house was not burned. We
returned through the Indian village, and stopped at Corn-Planter's
to warm us. The sun was setting as we drove over that beautiful
prairie ground. The squaws were carrying bundles of sticks to their
wigwams or huts. We came into Buffalo in time to see the chimneys
standing. All seemed gloomy and desolate. We soon came in sight
of our own home. The cellar walls were standing, and the chimney on
the North side of the hall, and the one on the South side of the hall
was standing. The large stone step on the Main Street was firm and
in its place against the front wall. How sad was the change since
we had seen it last. Tears were nothing now; everybody had been
weeping for days. While we were waiting at the ferry for our way
over, I heard a loud groan and saw people looking up at the tops of
the trees ; I turned my eyes and saw those awful clouds of smoke,
rolling over and over, and the women shrieking and sobbing and
all could avail them naught, for the destruction had commenced. There-
Sixth Generation ~17
fore when we met our mother, we tried to he thankful for the small
house, knowing our former home was lost, with nearly all tlie proceeds
of a (father's) life, " whose constant care had been to increase his
store."
In the recital concerning the morning after we left Buffalo, my
sister Sarah said, mother was standing in the door and Mr. Seth (iros-
venor came along with a white flag on a walking-stick.
He said if he could only gather citizens enough to assist him, he
could drive them (the enemy) back, as he had sent the contents of that
ETun anions them with the effect to mow them down.
Just then some few men on horseback were commg from Court
Street, and as they came nearer, she (mother) walked to the road;
the headmost one drew up his rein, and she said to him, " For mercy's
sake do turn back and help Mr. Grosvenor manage that cannon and
defend the town; and let General Hall go — the miscreant!! He must
be an awful coward." At that he raised his hat, curbed the bit, his
horse set off with a dignified trot and the others followed suit. She
was soon informed she had been talking to General Hall himself. She
said she did not wish to recall her words — that if she had known
him to be such she would have said more. The truth was the General
was a plain farmer from Bloomfield and probably had Falstaff's valor,
the better part being discretion ; sufficient at least, to seek a place
of safety. He was one of those whom Oliver Cromwell would have
called " Ye spurious sons of War."
My mother said she saw an Indian pulling the curtains down
from the window of Mr. Lovejoy's house, and saw Mrs. Lovejoy
strike his hand with a carving knife — and saw the Indian raise the
hatchet; but as the door closed she could not know for certain, that
he had killed her. She did not dare to go and see. Soon there came
along an advance guard, with a cannon and a (British) Colonel on
horseback.
He spoke very crossly and said, "Why are you not away.?"
She said she had lost the opportunity, and now she had nowhere to go
only out in the cold and perish in the snow. He said, " I have just
now seen a very unpleasant sight in the house over the way. The
Indians have killed a woman and I am very sorry any such thing
should happen." " Well " said she, " I was fearful she would provoke
them to kill her. I spoke to her and said do not risk your life for
property, she answered : ' When my property goes, my life shall go
with it.' " My mother asked the Colonel to set a sentinel by the large
house and the one she was in, to prevent the Indians from coming
in, and burning the houses. He said he had no power to issue such
a command; that she must go to General Rial; he could say what
might be done. He moved along with his party and cannon.
The squaws were in the house plundering when she returned and
very soon there came in a little dwarf, and spoke very lively to my
218 St. John Genealogy
mother and said, " Do not be frightened, Madam, you need not fear.
There was an order issued this morning, from the Canadian officers,
that no person should be molested, that was obliged to stay from
sickness, or old age, or any accident or misfortune." My mother
said: "Where is your commanding officer?" "Just down here in
a log house, on the Niagara road." (At the Edsell Tannery, near the
junction of Niagara, Mohawk and Morgan Streets.) So as a squaw
had taken off the veil and bonnet from my mother and also her cloak,
and had put her own squaw blanket about her (mother's) shoulders,
and had served Sarah with the same change of dress ; they and Maria
and the dwarf set off together ; he having informed my mother that
he could speak six different languages and was the interpreter for
the General Rial. So they took their course down to the corner of
Delaware and Niagara Streets, and were ushered into the presence
of the Indian commander, by the dwarf interpreter. The old bluff
man said, "What do you require.?" She said, "I came to ask you
to send a guard to keep the Indians from burning the house, and
from plundering our goods and clothing." He spoke a few words with
the guide and they retraced their steps back to their home. The
interpreter took his seat by the door ; it being winter, the door was
closed and the Indians would bang their guns against the door; when
the door was open, the interpreter would speak, and they would go away,
looking as if they had met with severe reproof. In the course of
the day, the house of Mrs. Lovejoy was set on fire, and mother and
sisters Maria and Sarah, with the hired man, old Mr. Pettingill, and
others, went to the house and took the body of Mrs. Lovejoy out
of the house and laid her body on a pile of boards by the side of the
fence, so she need not be consumed by the fire. Then they went into
the house and saw that it did not burn fast, so they made an attempt
to put out the fire, and did succeed. When night was coming on, they
thought they would carry her body in again, and as the old man was
very weak and old, they would like more help. They looked up street
and saw Mr. Walden. So sister started Sarah on a run to ask him
to come and assist.
He came; they, Walden, mother, Maria and Sarah, lifted the
body and carried it and placed it on the cords of a bedstead. I re-
ceived a number of the Sandusky Clarion, containing an account of
a gentleman living in Ohio, near Sandusky. He said that he was a boy
at the time that Buffalo was burned, and was living about half a mile
from Buffalo towards Black Rock; that his father took his gun and
went to the battle ; and that his mother prepared breakfast, but before
they could eat, his father returned and said they had no time to lose,
the British were just behind them; so they dashed out and followed
with the crowd, and they came up to where they were loading the gun,
ready for resistance, but they did not dare to stop. They followed
the crowd up the creek, but they did not cross the creek, staying about
Sixth Geneeation 219
and sleeping that, iiiglit in a Ixirn. The next morning they returned
to the village and went to my mother's (Mrs. St. John's) and got
some breakfast and they went over to see JMrs. Lovcjoy. She was lying
on the bedstead ; was a tall woman, dressed in black silk dress, with
her long black hair hanging down, reaching through the cords, to
the floor. He said they all stood about her and shed tears. Then
the Indians came again the third day and set the house on fire and she
was burned in it, then Mr. Lovejoy came and gathered her bones in
a handkerchief and buried them.
The large house of ours had been set on fire, and Sarah drew
water from the well, and niotlicr, Maria, and the old hired man carried
it and poured it on the fire, 'till it was out.
Then there was a sentinel set to guard it, but after the bugle
blew for retreat, the third day there came back an Indian on horse-
back, with a waiter on another horse. The officer dismounted, and
gave his rein to his waiter, and went into the house, and began to
gather some combustible material such as paper and straw and the
clock case, from which a squaw had taken the works, split up and
blew one pistol into and set fire to it. My mother had just arrived
and attempted to put out the fire. At that, the Indian, who spoke
English, told her she must go to her house, for he intended to burn
that one. She said she " would have no income if that was destroyed,
and I am a widow, and I have lost my sons." He said, " Very likely,
that may be true, but you have left to you one roof, and that is more
than the Americans left our widows, when they came over, they only
left the brands of the houses after they were burned." He then drew
another pistol and pointed it at her saying, " If she wished to save
her life, she must leave and return to her house they had left for
her." My mother said, " I do not intend to risk my life for property
but this is my home. I took the other to have the income from this."
He said, " Very probably, but " said he, " this will be a rendezvous for
four thousand troops before tomorrow night." This was the last
day. The barn was burned on the first day. On the first day some
of the British ordered the old hired man to burn the barn. The old
man came in wiping his eyes. My mother said, " What is the matter.' "
he said, " I must do what I never did expect to do ; they say I must
burn your barn ; and see, they have taken the woolen mittens you
made me and made me take these old worn out buck-skin gauntlets."
My mother said, " Oh, well — it cannot be helped, you had better
obey their orders." So he took the brand of fire from the hearth and
went out and set the barn on fire. Many of the houses were standing
on New Year's day. Our own large house was not burned until the
last day of the burning, and all had been burned but ours. When the
bugle blew, the sentinels were removed and all had left when the Indian,
Carr. (a half-breed who married Brant's daughter,) returned, re-
solved to burn it.
St. John Genealogy
This being the second day of January, they had hopes that those
houses would be saved, but while at breakfast, the old man came in
and said, " I think I have heard the Indians whoop down towards
Black Rock." They rose, my mother took the table-cloth for a
flag and waved it out of a window; the West chamber window at the
head of the stairs, and seeing an Indian running by the house, she looked
to see where he was going, and saw Sarah running towards Mohawk
Street. Mother called vehemently saying " Don't run." The old
man was trying to run, too, but he stumbled ; the Indian helped to
lift him, and took some vermilion and painted his face. Seeing that,
Sarah turned back and shook hands with the old Indian, and he painted
her face. She returned to the house. Then there came along the
British officer on horseback, and stopped near the house and said,
" Why did you not go away? " She told him she had no where to go.
When he saw the paint on Sarah's face he asked how that came to be
so. She told how she attempted to run away on seeing the Indian that
morning, but as she saw he was not disposed to murder the old hired
man, she turned back and was painted, too. The officer looked very
angry about it and told her to go and wash it off. She said, if he
(the Indian) should see her again, she was afraid he would be dis-
pleased. He said he would insure her safety. She then went and
washed her face.
The officer rode along, and the Indians commenced burning the
houses again; burning Mrs. Lovejoy's and Mr. Bemis' house over
the way opposite ours, and all was burned and the sentinels removed.
In a few days we returned, and all our neighbors came into
town ; and the mothers from Bloomfield came to Buffalo to identify
their sons who had been killed, and buried in a mound in the grave
ground. They had been bifried without coffins.
My mother gave the Bloomfield people refreshments, and they
warmed themselves by the fire, they seemed to be sadly afflicted.
In a few days Judge Granger, the Indian Agent, said to my mother^
that his family were in Canandaigua, and he was going there to stay
the remainder of the winter ; that he was afraid to leave his house
empty, for fear that it would be filled with soldiers ; that he would
leave his sisters, Mrs. Remington and her family and Mrs. Forward
and her family, and he would give a room or two to my mother if she
would move out there, and that would leave no room for the Quarter-
master to take. We made ready to accept Judge Granger's kind offer,
and moved to his place, out on the Three Mile Creek. Before moving
mother rented the small house to Mr. Holden Allen, father of Levi
Allen, for $300.00. By the kindness of an aunt, (Mrs. Philander
Bennett's mother) part of the family were carried away to Oneida
County, and the younger part, with my mother, moved out to the
Granger farm. We were very comfortable, with old John Puffin-
burg to take care of the families and a very large flock of sheep.

He was ordained in May, 1741, and preached to ji colony of
twelve families — the Ransoms and Comstocks, and the Stars and nine
other families. I do not know her age (79 when she died) hut she
was in New York when the British had just left that city, and attended
the celchration of the evacuation hy the Rritisli. I helievc she was
seventeen. (As I, (). S. St. John, renieinher having heard her say,
that she was seven years old when the War of the Revolution com-
menced, she must have been, at that time, not far from fourteen years
old.)
I cannot write any more at present. I cannot come to Buffalo
this winter. I am quite well and wish all a Happy New Year.

Mrs. Skinner died at Willoughhy, Lake Co., Oiiio, on the morning
of the 11th of March, 1880, in her 77th year. During her last sick-
ness, I obtained her confirmation of the foregoing narration, and what
there is in the following and preceding that of the principal letter,
which I hand over to the Society for comparison or reference.
Mrs. Skinner said that some years after the burning of Buffalo
— on the occasion of the Grovernment sending out a commission — to
examine and appraise the damages which each family or individual had
suffered by the burning of their buildings — my mother, thinking that
the damage had not been fairly assessed, directed my sister. Mrs.
Bemis, to write several letters, which mother dictated and mailed to
Richard Bland Lee, (of Washington) who was at the head of the
claims department.

Joseph Earl Sheffield lived to be over 90 years of age. The ex-
tent of his fortune is unknown, but it is estimated at about $10,000,000.
Mr. Sheffield had a wide reputation owing to his benefactions to
Yale College. It is owing to his magnificent gifts to that institution
that the Sheffield Scientific School is now placed in its present high
position among the technical schools in this country. His mother,
Isabel Thorpe, was the daughter of Walter Thorpe, of Southport,,
in the West India trade.
In 1808 Mr. Sheffield was employed at the age of about 15 years
in a store in Newbern, N. C. He was afterwards engaged in busi-
ness with Henry Kneeland, an old and respected merchant of New
York, and was engaged in buying and shipping cotton. His various
enterprises in the South, in connection with the business interests of
Mobile, were successful in results, and in 1835 he refused the presi-
dency of the Mobile branch of the U. S. Bank.
In 1822 he married Miss Maria St. John, of Delaware Co., N. Y.,
and in 1835 came to New Haven, devoting much of his energy to the
building of the Northampton Road, which would probably never have
been built except for his persistence and courage. He was one of the-
chief projectors of the railroad between New Haven and New York,
and in 1850, in company with Henry Fornam, built and equipped the
railroad between Chicago and Rock Island, at a cost of over $5,000,-
000, within two and a half years after signing the contracts. He
was a director in the company which constructed the Mississippi and
Missouri Railroad until 1856, when he declined a re-election.
Mr. Sheffield's gifts to Yale College really commenced in 184<6
and when they were made from time to time until 1870, they had
amounted to a large sum. He gave the building in which the Sheffield
School was started ; twice re-fitted and enlarged it ; gave a fund of
$130,000 for professorships; a library fund of $10,000, afterwards
increased to ,$12,000, and paid for the Hillhouse Mathematical Library
$41,000, He also gave $2,700 to the Collier Cabinet, besides con-
tributing to the current expenses of the Sheffield School. These
gifts amounted to no less than $250,000. In 1870 Mr. Sheffield gave
the ground for a large new building in Prospect Street and paid for
the erection thereon of the building known as North Sheffield Hall.
He has given large sums at different times to the Berkeley Divinity
School, in Middletown ; to Trinity College, Hartford, and the The-
ological Seminary of the Northwest in Chicago. He has also built,,
in New Haven, a Parish Home in connection with Trinity Church, a
beautiful and costly building, paying about $75,000, and has been a
contributor to the Orphan Asylum and various institutions there and!
elsewhere.

He was First Clerk of Walton, N. Y., Apl. 4, 1797, to Apl. 2, 1799;
Supervisor of Roads, Mar. 1806-1819. The following is from the
New Canaan Messenger (Historical Notes), Feb. 27th, 1892, Patriots
of Canaan Parish. 1776:
David St. John, Sergt., was also a soldier in the Continental
Army. He was in Capt. Daniel Benedict's Company, under command
of Lieut. Col. John Mead, (of Greenwich) and was in service at New
York, marching Aug. 12th 1776. During that service they lost
their Captain, who was captured, and died in prison; (the old Sugar
House) and after their return the company was reorganized, and he
continued as first Sergt under Capt. John Carter. In October the
242 St. John Genealogy
company was again ordered to march to the Westchester border, and
place themselves under Gen. Wooster. His name is still found on the
roll-call of the 9th Co. June 1779 under Capt Reuben Scofield, com-
manded by Col. John Mead. And it again appears in the list of
Revolutionary pensioners, at the age of 87 years.
David St John was the son of David and Jemima St John ; and
was about 17 years of age when he entered the Continental army.
He married and with his wife joined the Church in 1786. Their home
is yet to be located.
The military record of this Co., is found in the Adj't. Gen's.

The following sketch of No. 1160, above, is from The Arena:
" One of the ablest authorities on finance in America to-day is
Mr. William Pope St. John, M. A., president of the Mercantile Na-
tional Bank of New York and author of the proposed platform for
American Independents, published in our June issue. This prominent
Metropolitan banker was born in Mobile, Ala., being the son of New-
ton St. John of the firm of St. John, Powers & Co., bankers, and
for twenty-five years agents in the South for Baring Bros. & Co., of
London. Mr. St. John's ancestors were intimately connected with
the foundation and political hfe of our government.
" His mother, Maria Pope, was a daughter of Alexander Pope
and Dorothy Bibb, of Georgia, the latter being a sister of William
Bibb, the Territorial Governor and first State Governor of Alabama.
The father of Alexander Pope, Mr. St. John's great-grandfather,
was Charles Pope, of Delaware, lieutenant-colonel of the Revolutionary
regiment known as " the Blue Hen's Chickens," which constituted the
first independent command of Lafayette.
"Mr. St. John's paternal great-great-grandfather having been
one of the twenty-five founders of the town of Ridgefield, Conn. Mr.
St. John is thus eligible to membership in the New England Society
and the Southern Society, and on his father's side is eligible to the
State Societies of Massachusetts, Connecticut and New York, and on
his mother's side of Delaware, Georgia and Alabama. He is therefore
intensely American.
" Mr. St. John's school days beginning in Mobile, continued in
Germany and England and ended in Massachusetts. After terminat-
ing his education, he entered the employ successively of several dis-
tinctly diff'erent kinds of business, with houses standing first in their
line. His last engagement, prior to entering banking was in employ-
ment with the largest sugar refinery firm of our country, where he
had full charge of the sales during four years. Some idea of the
magnitude of its business can be gained from the fact that the sales
for a single year aggregated $5,000,000.
" In January, 1881, he was tendered the cashiership of the Mer-
cantile National Bank of New York City, and two years later on the
death of the President of that institution, he was promoted to the
first position in that bank, which oflice he has filled ever since. Under
the presidency of Mr. St. John, during thirteen years, the Mercantile
National Bank has trebled the volume of its deposits, and besides
paying regular semi-annual dividends, has accumulated .$1,000,000 of
surplus earnings. Mr. St. John is also a director or trustee in other
M'li.i.iAM 1'. St. .loiiN

blinks and institutions of Now York, and has been a frequent con-
tributor to financial literature. Williams College has conferred upon
lu'ni the honorary detrrec of M. A.
"In l.S8i IVIr. St. John was elected a nieml)or of the finance com-
mittee of the New York Chamber of Commerce, a position to which
he was annually re-elected for a total period of eight years. Upon
his first election the Chairman urged upon him, as the junior member,
the obligation to devote research to tlie silver question. He began
that research as a pronounced gold-standard man, and with all the
prejudice against silver money which still prevails in that Chamber
of Commerce. At a convention of bankers in 1883 he had asserted of
the Bland Act, which provided a limited coinage of silver, that it
was ' dishonest in inception and vicious in its tendencies.' The first six
years of his research were devoted to a painstaking endeavor to
substantiate with the facts of history his pre-conceived false notions,
which he shared with his fellow-members of the Chamber.
" After six years' research he began to differ from the conclusions
of the finance committee, setting forth his views in a minority report.
After nine years of research Mr. St. John advocated boldly the
restoration of silver and its unlimited coinage in the United States."
A note is here added on the family of Mary Jane (Pope) St. John,
first wife of Newton St. John, and mother of his cliildren, given above.

at Work While Fire Raged. — The only Government de-
partment in the San Francisco Custom House in which
work has continued uninterruptedly is that of Surveyor
of the Port Woodward. He and his Chief Deputy, Chaun-
cey M. St. John, were at their desks by 9 o'clock in the
morning of Wednesday, and remained there all day.
" The fire crept up toward them from the water front
and finally was on all four sides of the building. Amid
the roar of the conflagration, the crash of falling walls
and the excitement attending the work of the 150 sailors
who saved the building, their work went on uninterrupted.
Inspectors fought their way to the building, reported
to Mr. St. John, and received further orders regarding
their work along the water front.
" It was a severe ordeal, but neither the Surveyor, his
deputy, nor his Inspectors showed any inclination to aban-
don their posts until their day's work was done. They
have kept at their work ever since (N. Y. Times, April
— 24, 1906).

New York City in 1832-1838. He was a man of culture. Literature,
art, and music found favor with him. He was benevolent and generous,
almost too trustful, as a so-called friend later caused his financial
failure. In California he retrieved the fortune he had lost. When
in N. Y. City he was a member of the Philhai-monic Society. He was
an intimate friend, while in N. Y. City, of Wilham Cullen Bryant.
They were fellow-members of the Art Association, where they often
studied the paintings together. The friendship, continued until 1871,
when a letter filled with reminiscences of early association came to
him from the poet, and was long treasured by him.

Child :
3036 i James Allen.
"James Allen St. John inherited his mother's and grandfather's
talent and is a portrait painter of some note.
" He began his art studies at a very early age. He says, in
speaking of his childhood: 'My first recollections are my mother's
studio, and the eyes of her portraits following me about the place.'
" His mother's father was Hilliard Hely, an artist of consider-
able talent, who had spent his student life in Paris under the supervi-
sion of the worthy masters of those days of the First Empire. His
daughter received her first lessons from him, and later on Mrs. St.
John became the teacher of her young son. When he was eight years
old, Mrs. St. John went to Paris to continue her studies, taking the
boy with her. ' Even as a child,' said Mr. St. John, ' I found delight
in the society of so-called bohomians my mother gathered around her,
and one of my greatest pleasures was to ramble at will through the
Louvre, the Luxembourg and the countless quaint and charming cor-
ners of the unfashionable parts of the city, so dear to all dreamers.
But I unconsciously imitated those with whom I was brought in con-
tact, and began to sketch and paint before I could read and write.'
490 • St. John Genealogy
" Mr. St. John returned to America after some years of this idle,
joyous life, and after going through the usual course of schooling
his father took him in hand when he reached the age of sixteen and
decided to give him the chance of becoming a good thrifty merchant.
He bought him a partnership with a man of practical experience; but
the dreamy boy was ill-adapted to the work and rebelled so vigorously
that his father sent him, as a last resource, to his uncle's ranch in the
San Joaquin valley of California, with the injunction to regain his
health, to ride and to shoot, and to become a cowboy, pure and simple,
for a time at least.
" The lad's mind was still on the happy days of Paris and his
early attempts at sketching when he was suddenly brought into the
picturesque scenery and environment of Southern California.
" While on a trip to Los Angeles he had the good fortune to fall
under the influence of Mr. Eugene Torrey, an accompHshed artist, and
at one time a student in the Ecole des Beaux-Arts. This meeting decided
the career of the young man. He threw all other pre-arranged plans
to the wind and spent the next three years studying under his artist
friend. Pie traveled with him from place to place, drawing and paint-
ing the old Spanish missions, and seeking inspiration from the glories
of the Yosemite and the snow-covered peaks of the Sierra-Madre." —

5060a DANIEL ST. JOHN (DanieP, Samuel*, Matthias% Mat-
thias^, Matthias^), undoubtedly identical with No. 238, page 113,
was killed by the Indians, July 8, 1778, when moving his fam-
ily from the Wyoming Valley. He had reached Atherton's, near
Providence. " Daniel St. John's wife saved herself and her child,
Daniel, by hiding in a hoUow log" (M. M. St. John). A Daniel St.
John was one of the signers of the Minisink Pledge, June 26, 1775
Unclassified 5^5
(Stickney's Minisink, p. 76). He was also an associator in Minisink
in 1775. A Danii'l St. John was in 1776 taxed for £31 in Pittston Dist.,
Wyoming, Penn. ; as also on Aug. 1, 1777. and in 1778. Ex-Gov-
ernor John P. St. John is the great-grandson of the above Daniel.
Daniel, father of No. 2!58, had a dan. Rebecca, who m. Uriah Chapniim
and had Lucy D. The latter m. a Schoonover and had a son, Uriali,
whose name by act of legislature was changed to C. M. Bell. The
latter, writing to ex-Gov. John P. St. John, says, " My grandmother,
Rebecca St. John, was sister to your grandfather, Daniel St. John."
Evidently Dr. Bell leaves out a generation, his grandmother, Rebecca,
probably being a sister of the ex-Governor's great-grandfather.
