INTRODUCTORY. 

Some  ten  years  ag'O  I  was  applied  to  b)'  the  late 
Edmund  D.  Halsey,  Esquire,  of  Morristown,  New  Jersey,  for 
information  concerning  the  Edwards  descendants  of  Rhoda 
Ogden,  he  having  in  hand  a  Genealogy  of  the  descendants  of 
Robert  Ogden,  2d,  father  of  Rhoda.  I  consulted  the  Tuttle 
Genealogy,  which  includes  the  Edwards  family  from  the  mar- 
riage of  Elizabeth  Tuttle  with  Richard  Edwards,  in  1667 ;  also 
the  Dwight  and  the  Stoddard  Genealogies ;  but  found  all  of 
them  deficient  and  often  unreliable  for  the  generations  later 
than  Timothy  Edwards,  of  Stockbridge.  This  called  my  atten- 
tion to  the  importance  of  preserving  our  family  records  while 
some  members  of  the  third  generation  from  Timothy  were  still 
living.  I  myself  belong  to  that  generation,  and  I  remember 
several  of  the  children  of  Timothy,  and  knew  part  of  these  well. 

Thereupon  I  put  myself  in  communication  with  Hamilton 
and  Alexander  Edwards ;  with  S.  Tyler  Williams  and  Mrs. 
Frances  Whiting  Mather, —  the  three  last  named  now  gone  — 
and  received  from  all  cordial  assistance.  I  found  that  Dr. 
Franklyn  Ellsworth  Edwards  had  for  some  time  been  at  work 
on  a  list  of  the  descendants  of  his  great-grandfather,  Edward 
Edwards,  and  he  very  kindly  gave  me  his  material,  and  there- 
after aided  me  much,  even  making  several  journeys  to  obtain 
further  information.  Mrs.  Elizabeth  Hooker  Stanger  contrib- 
uted a  list  of  the  descendants  of  her  ancestress,  Phebe  Edwards, 
and  ]Mr.  Williams  took  hold  zealously,  and  was  at  pains  to  trace 
the  posterity  of  his  grandmother,  Sarah  Edwards  Tyler,  by  her 
first  marriage  with  Benjamin  Chaplin.     From  many  others  I 

also  received  aid.

There  will,  of  course,  be  found  errors,  both  of  omission 
and  commission,  and  I  shall  feel  obliged  to  any  one  who  will 
call  my  attention  to  them,  in  order  that  when  the  book  reaches 
a  second  edition,  correction  may  be  made. 

The  descendants  here  listed  number  very  nearly  twelve 
hundred,  and  they  have  lived,  or  do  now  live,  mostly  in  Massa- 
chusetts, Connecticut,  New  York,  New  Jersey,  Pennsylvania, 
Michigan,  Ohio,  and  States  west  to  the  Pacific.  There  have 
been  few  in  the  other  New  England  States,  few  at  the  South, 
and  in  Canada.     The  migration  from  Stockbridge  was  westerly.

GENEALOGY  OF  THE  EDWARDS  FAMILY. 


THE  ANCESTORS  OF  TIMOTHY  AND  RHODA 
OGDEN  EDWARDS. 

1.  William  Edwards,  who  came  to  this  country  from  Eng- 
land about  1640,  was  the  son  of  Rev.  Richard  Edwards,  a 
clergyman  of  the  Church  of  England,  in  the  time  of  Elizabeth ; 

and  was  of  Welsh  parentage.     He  married  Anne . 

After  the  death  of  her  husband,  she  married  James  Coles, 
who,  with  her  son,  William  Edwards,  then  young,  accom- 
panied the  mother  to  Hartford,  Conn.  Both  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Coles  died  in  Hartford.  In  1646,  William's  name  appears  as 
a  landowner  in  Hartford.  Mrs.  Coles'  death  is  recorded 
as  on  the  20th  of  February,  1670,  and  she  left  by  will  her 
house  and  land  to  William  during  his  life,  then  to  her  grand- 
son Richard.  William  Edwards  is  named  with  William 
Tuttle  and  others  as  concerned  in  the  East  Haven  settle- 
ment. About  1645,  h^  married  Agnes,  widow  of  WiUiam 
Spencer,  by  whom  he  had  one  child,  Richard.  William 
died  . 

2.  Richard  Edwards,  born  May,  1647;  was  a  merchant  in 
Hartford ;  married  (i)  Ehzabeth  Tuttle,  daughter  of  William 
and  Elizabeth  Tuttle,  of  New^  Haven,  November  19,  1667. 
They  had  seven  children.  Mrs.  Edwards  died,  and  Richard 
married  (2),  1692,  Mary  Talcott,  daughter  of  Hon.  John  Tal- 
cott,  by  whom  he  had  six  children.  She  died  at  Hartford, 
April  20,  1718. 

Dr.  Franklyn  Ellsworth  Edwards  wrote  to  the  compiler  of 
these  notes,  on  the  22d  of  October,  1900:   "  I  went  to  Hart-    v^ 
ford,  and  found  there  the  grave   of  Richard   Edwards   and      \ 
Mary  Talcott,  his  wife,  and  one  son  buried  *  on  the  dust  of 
his  mother.'     The  cemetery  is  re-graded  and  turfed,  all  the

tombstones  restored  and  re-lettered,  and  a  high  iron  fence 
incloses  it  —  all  the  work  of  the  Daughters  of  the  Revolu- 
tion. His  father,  William,  is  probably  buried  in  some  other 
cemetery  thereabout,  but  I  had  not  time  to  look  up  his 
grave."

In  a  copy  of  a  Manuscript  Memorial  of  Richard  Edwards, 
written  by  his  son  Timothy,  I  read :  (The  original  of  this 
was  in  the  possession  of  the  late  Professor  Park,  and  he 
read  from  it  at  the  Edwards  Meeting,  at  Stockbridge,  1870.) 
"  He  was  of  a  noble  stature,  of  a  straight,  well-formed  body, 
and  of  a  comely  countenance.  His  smile  had  a  pleasantcy 
beyond  which  I  have  seen  in  many,  yea,  in  most  others.     He

was  quick  and  nimble  in  his  movements,  even  to  old  age; 
and  was  of  a  strong  and  healthy  constitution.  He  had  a 
strong,  clear  mind,  and  had  a  very  good  utterance.  He  had 
a  quick  fancy ;  a  pleasant,  ready  wit,  with  a  very  good  judg- 
ment. He  could  argue  in  a  matter  and  reason  in  a  case  very 
well.  He  was  a  man  of  considerable  reading;  both  in  Law, 
History,  and  Divinity ;  was  well  furnished  for  society,  and 
very  pleasant  in  consultation."  Timothy  adds :  "  Thus  it 
pleased  the  Most  High  to  endow  and  adorn  my  dear  departed 
Father  with  many  virtues  which  rendered  him  very  lovely 
and  desirable  in  his  life,  and  much  lamented  in  his  death." 
3.  Timothy  Edwards,  b.  May  14,  1669;  fitted  for  college 
under  Rev.  Pelatiah  Glover,  minister  of  Springfield,  Mass., 
and  entered  Harvard  1687;  graduated  July  4,  1691,  receiving 
the  degree  of  A.B.  and  A.M.  on  the  same  day — "  an  uncom- 
mon mark  of  respect."  He  was  licensed  to  preach  in  1694, 
and  ordained  as  pastor  of  the  new  church  at  East  Windsor, 
Conn.,  1698;  married  Esther,  second  child  of  Rev.  Solomon 
Stoddard,  of  Northampton,  Mass.,  by  whom  he  had  eleven 
children  —  one  son  and  ten  daughters.  Mr.  Stoddard  was 
the  son  of  Anthony  Stoddard,  who  came  from  England  to 
Boston  about  1639,  and  who  married  Mary,  daughter  of  Hon. 
Emanuel  Downing,  of  Salem,  and  Lucy,  his  wife.  Solomon 
was  born  October  4,  1643;  died  February  11,  1729,  aet.  86; 
graduated  at  Harvard,  1662;  settled  at  Northampton,  Mass., 
as  minister,  September  11,  1670;  married  Mrs.  Esther 
Mather,  nee  Esther  Warham,  of  Windsor,  Conn.,  March  8, 
1670;  she  died  February  10,  1736,  aet.  93.  The  tradition  is 
that  black  hair  and  black  eyes  came  into  the  family  through 
the  Warhams.  Timothy  Edwards  died  January  27,  1758,  in 
his  eighty-ninth  year,  and  the  sixtieth  of  his  ministry;  Mrs. 
Edwards  died  January  19.  1770,  in  her  ninety-ninth  year. 
Mrs.  Edwards  is  described  as  "  tall,  dignified  and  command- 
ing in  appearance,  afifable  and  gentle  in  her  manner,  and  was 
regarded  as  surpassing  her  husband  in  native  vigor  of  under- 
standing. Remarkable  judgment  and  prudence,  extensive 
information,  thorough  knowledge  of  the  Scriptures  and  of 
theology,  singular  conscientiousness  and  piety, —  these  are 
virtues  attributed  to  the  mother  vvhich  reappear  in  her  son 


A.  Genealogy  of  the  Edwards  Family. 

Jonathan.     These  also  came  as  if  by  natural  descent  to  a 
daughter  of  vSolomon  Stoddard." 

Jonathan  Edwards,  in  a  letter,  says :  "  My  grandfather 
Stoddard  was  a  very  great  man,  of  strong  powers  of  mind, 
of  great  grace  and  great  authority,  of  a  masterly  countenance, 
speech  and  behavior." 

In  the  spring  of  1709,  jMr.  Edwards  was  appointed  by  the 
Colonial  Legislature  of  Connecticut  as  the  Chaplain  of  the 
troops  of  that  State  for  the  expedition  against  Canada.     He 
left  Windsor  for  New  Haven  in  July,  and  reached  Albany 
August  13th,  with  three  companies  under  Colonel  Livingston. 
The  country  was  uncleared,  and  he  camped  two  nights  in  the 
woods.     On  the  20th  of  August  he  left  for  Wood  Creek.     At 
Saratoga,  in  consequence  of  exposure,  he  was  taken  seriously 
ill;    on  the  14th  of  September,  being  unable  to  proceed,  he 
was  conveyed  in  a  boat  to  Stillwater,  and  then  carried  back 
to  East  Windsor  in  a  wagon,  and  on  a  bed.     Mr.  Edwards 
was  unusually  esteemed  and  beloved  as  an  upright,  pious,  and 
exemplary  man,  and  a  faithful  and  very  efficient  minister  of 
the  gospel.     His  grandson,  Rev.  Sereno  Dwight,  says  of  him : 
"  He  was   five   feet  ten   inches   high,   of  fair  complexion, 
strong  built  frame,  of  polished  manners,  particularly  attentive 
to  dress  and  propriety  of  exterior;  never  appearing  in  public 
but  in  the  full  dress  of  a  clergyman.     On  a  visit  to  East 
Windsor,   in  the   summer  of   1823,   I   found   a   considerable 
number  of  persons  advanced  in  years,  who  had  been  well 
acquainted  with  Mrs.  Edwards,  and  two  upwards  of  ninety, 
who  had  been  pupils  of  her  husband.     Mr.  Edwards  was  well 
acquainted  with  Hebrew  Literature,  and  was  regarded  as  a 
man  of  more  than  usual  learning;    but  was  particularly  dis- 
tinguished  for  his   accurate   knowledge  of  the   Greek   and 
Roman  classics.     He  annually  prepared  a  number  of  youths 
for  college,  there  being  at  that  time  no  public  schools  or 
academies    endowed   for   that   purpose.      One    of   my   aged 
informants,  w^ho  pursued  his  preparatory  studies  under  him, 
told  me  that,  on  his  admission  into  college,  when  the  officers 
learned  with  whom  he  had  studied,  they  remarked  to  him 
that  there  was  no  need  of  examining  Mr.  Edwards'  scholars. 
He  was,  for  that  period,  remarkably  liberal  and  enlightened

with  regard  to  the  education  of  his  children,  preparing  not 
only  his  son,  but  each  of  his  daughters,  for  college.  On  the 
Canada  expedition,  he  writes  in  a  letter,  dated  August  3d, 
171 1,  that  Jonathan  and  the  girls  may  continue  their  study  of 
Latin ;  another  letter,  dated  August  7th,  that  Jonathan  may 
continue  to  recite  his  Latin  to  his  eldest  sister.  When  his 
daughters  were  of  a  proper  age,  he  sent  them  to  Boston  to 
finish  their  education.  He  always  preached  extemporane- 
ously, and  until  he  was  upwards  of  the  age  of  seventy,  with- 
out noting  down  the  heads  of  his  discourses.  His  influence 
on  his  congregation  was  commanding;  when  he  heard  of 
any  division  among  his  people,  he  went  immediately  to  see 
that  the  parties  were  reconciled,  and  when  he  heard  of  any 
improper  conduct,  his  custom  was  to  go  immediately  and 
reprove  them.  At  the  time  of  bis  settlement  at  East  Wind- 
sor, his  father  built  for  him  a  house  on  a  farm  of  moderate 
extent,  which  he  had  bought.  It  was  then  considered  a 
handsome  residence."  "I  saw  it,"  continues  Dr.  Dwight,  "in 
1803 ;  a  substantial  house  of  moderate  dimensions ;  had  one 
chimney  in  the  middle,  and  was  entered,  like  all  houses  of 
that  period,  by  stepping  on  the  sill.  In  this  house,  Mr.  and 
Mrs.  Edwards  lived  and  died,  and  here  all  their  children  were 
born.  A  step-stone  that  belongs  to  it  is  inserted  in  the 
foundation  of  the  Theological  Seminary  at  East  Windsor." 
(See  Appendix.) 

[The  Rev.  Charles  A.  Jaquith,  of  South  Windsor,  wrote  me, 
November  29,  1902:  "The  First  Congregational  Church,  of 
which  I  am  pastor,  had  as  its  first  pastor  Timothy  Edwards. 
It  was  here  that  Jonathan  Edwards  was  born,  about  a  mile 
north  of  our  present  church  building,  and  where  the  cellar  of 
the  house  can  plainly  be  seen.  This  parish  was  set  ofif  from 
old  Windsor  as  East  Windsor,  but  later,  the  eastern  and 
northern  part  of  the  town,  east  of  the  Connecticut  River,  was 
set  off  from  this,  but  kept  our  name ;  this  parish  becoming 
South  Windsor.  Our  church  building  is  the  fourth  in  the 
history  of  the  church."  Mr.  Jaquith  suggested  that  as  the 
second  centennial  of  the  birth  of  Jonathan  Edwards,  "  whicli 
we  hope  to  celebrate,"  would  occur  next  year,  an  Edwards 
Memorial  Window  would  seem  appropriate.     A  number  cf

the  soul.     At  about  the  same  time  he  wrote  an  elaborate

and  instructive  account  of  the  habits  of  the  field  spider, 
based  upon  his  own  observation."  (Allen's  Life  of  Jonathan 
Edwards.)  "  He  entered  Yale  College  in  171 6,  and  received 
the  degree  of  A.B.,  1720,  a  little  before  he  was  seventeen 
years  old.  In  his  second  year  at  college,  he  read  Locke  on 
the  '  Human  Understanding  '  with  great  delight  and  profit, 
though  he  made  good  progress  in  all  the  arts  and  sciences, 
and  had  an  uncommon  taste  for  Natural  Philosophy,  which 
he  cultivated  to  the  end  of  his  life ;  yet  Moral  Philosophy  and 
Divinity  were  his  favorite  studies.  He  hved  at  college  two 
years  after  he  took  his  degree,  preparing  for  the  work  of 
the  ministry.  And  being  pitched  upon  and  applied  to  by  a 
number  of  ministers  in  New  England,  who  were  interested, 
to  act  in  behalf  of  the  English  Presbyterians  of  New  York, 
he  complied  with  their  request,  and  went  to  New  York  in 
August,  1722,  and  preached  there  to  very  good  acceptance 
about  eight  months.  He  left  them  the  next  spring,  and 
retired  to  his  father's  house,  where  he  spent  the  summer  in 
close  study.  In  1723,  he  received  his  degree  of  M.A. ;  about 
which  time  he  had  invitations  from  several  congregations  to 
come  among  them ;  but  being  chosen  Tutor  of  Yale  College, 
the  next  spring  he  retired  thither,  and  remained  about  two 
years.  While  he  was  so  engaged,  he  was  applied  to  by  the 
people  of  Northampton,  with  the  invitation  to  come  and 
settle  there  with  his  grandfather  vStoddard,  who,  by  reason 
of  his  great  age,  stood  in  need  of  assistance.  He  thereupon 
resigned  his  tutorship  in  September,  1726,  and  accepted  the 
invitation,  and  was  ordained  colleague  with  Mr.  Stoddard 
February  15,  1727.  He  remained  in  the  work  of  the  min- 
istry to  that  congregation  until  June  22,  1750,  somewhat  over 
twenty-three  years."  (Life  of  Mr.  Edwards,  Northampton, 
1764.) 

On  the  28th  day  of  July,  1727,  he  married  Sarah,  daughter 
of  the  Rev.  James  and  Mary  Hooker  Pierpont,  of  New 
Haven,  Conn.,  the  bride  being  seventeen  years  of  age.  She 
is  spoken  of  as  possessing  rare  beauty  both  of  form  and  fea- 
ture. She  was  descended  from  the  Rev.  Thomas  Hooker, 
renowned  as  the  father  of  the  Connecticut  churches.     James

Pierpont  was  an  eminent  divine,  connected  with  Yale  College 
in  various  capacities,  fovuider,  trustee,  and  Professor  of  Moral 
Philosophy.  His  father,  John  Pie'rpont,  came  to  Roxbury, 
Mass.,  from  Holme-Pierpont,  in  the  County  of  Nottingham, 
England,  and  was  the  youngest  of  three  sons  oi  Sir  John 
Pierpont.  At  about  the  time  of  his  marriage,  JNIr.  Edwards 
is  described  thus  :  "  He  was  tall,  upwards  of  six  feet  in  height, 
slender,  and  of  great  seriousness  and  gravity  of  manner.  His 
face  bespeaks  a  delicate  and  nervous  organization.  The  life 
he  had  set  for  himself  was  that  of  a  student  who  would  not 
allow  his  time  to  be  frittered  away  by  useless  employment. 
He  visited  the  people  only  in  cases  of  necessity.  Thirteen 
hours  of  study  daily  is  said  to  have  been  his  rule.  His 
manner  in  the  pulpit  is  described  as  quiet  exceedingly,  with 
little  or  no  gesture ;  a  voice  not  loud,  but  distinct  and 
penetrating," 

"  Mrs.  Edwards  proved  to  be  a  woman  of  strong  char- 
acter, endowed  with  a  natural  religious  enthusiasm,  with  a 
decidedly  mystic  bent  to  the  piety  that  belonged  to  her  from 
childhood.  As  her  husband's  reputation  grew  throughout 
the  colony,  her  name  became  everywhere  associated  with  his, 
but  also  as  of  a  person  to  be  known  and  revered  on  her 
own  account.  There  was  nothing  morbid  or  sad  about  her 
religion.  She  made  the  home  at  Northampton  a  center  of 
genial  and  attractive  hospitahty.  *A  sweeter  couple  I  have 
not  seen,'  said  Whitefleld  in  his  diary,  after  a  visit  of  several 
days."     (Allen.) 

Mr.  Edwards  was  dismissed  ignominiously  by  his  congre- 
gation January  22,  1750.  For  the  cause  of  this  proceeding, 
reference  is  made  to  any  Life  of  Mr.  Edwards.  "  The  Indian 
missions  at  Stockbridge  being  vacant,  the  Commissioners  for 
Indian  Affairs,  at  Boston,  applied  to  Mr.  Edwards.  He  was 
at  the  same  time  invited  by  the  inhabitants  of  Stockbridge, 
and  repairing  to  that  place,  he  was  introduced,  and  fixed  as 
missionary  to  the  Indians  there  by  an  ecclesiastical  council 
called  for  that  purpose,  August  8,  1751."    (Life,  1764.) 

"  It  was  at  Stockbridge  that  Mr.  Edwards  wrote  the  treatise 


Ancestors  of  Timothy  and  Rhoda  Ogden  Edwards.  o 

on  the  Will,  and  that  on  Original  Sin.  On  September  24, 
1757,  his  son-in-law,  the  Rev.  Aaron  Burr,  President  of  the 
New  Jersey  College  (now  Princeton  University),  died,  and 
at  the  next  meeting  of  the  Trustees,  Mr.  Edwards  was  chosen 
his  successor,  the  news  of  which  was  quite  unexpected  to 
him.  After  much  hesitation  and  correspondence  with  the 
Trustees,  he  accepted  the  position,  and  set  off  from  Stock- 
bridge  in  January,  1758,  leaving  his  family,  not  to  be  removed 
till  spring.  He  had  two  daughters  at  Princeton,  Mrs.  Burr 
and  Lucy,  his  eldest,  unmarried.  The  smallpox  was  then  in 
Princeton,  and  by  the  advice  of  the  physicians,  and  with  the 
consent  of  the  Corporation,  he  was  inoculated,  February  13. 
He  had  it  favorably,  and  it  was  thought  all  danger  was  over ; 
but  a  secondary  fever  set  in,  and  it  put  an  end  to  his  life  on 
March  22,  1758,  in  the  fifty-fifth  year  of  his  age.  A  little 
before  his  death  he  called  his  daughter  Lucy  to  him,  and 
addressed  her  in  a  few  words,  which  were  immediately  writ- 
ten down,  and  were  as  follows :  *  Dear  Lucy,  it  seems  to  be 
the  will  of  God  that  I  must  shortly  leave  you ;  therefore,  give 
my  kindest  love  to  my  dear  wife,  and  tell  her  that  the  uncom- 
mon union  which  has  so  long  subsisted  between  us  has  been 
of  such  a  nature  as  1  trust  is  spiritual,  and  therefore  will  con- 
tinue forever ;  and  1  hope  she  shall  be  supported  under  so 
great  a  trial,  and  submit  cheerfully  to  the  will  of  God.  And 
as  to  my  children,  you  are  likewise  to  be  left  fatherless,  which 
I  hope  will  be  an  inducement  to  you  all  to  seek  a  Father  who 
will  never  fail  you.'  His  last  words  were  :  *  Trust  in  God,  and 
ye  need  not  fear.'  He  appeared  to  have  the  uninterrupted 
use  of  his  reason. to  the  last,  and  died  with  as  much  calmness 
and  composure  as  that  with  which  one  goes  to  sleep."  (Life 
of  Mr.  Edwards,  printed  in  Northampton,  1764.) 

His  remains,  as  well  as  those  of  his  wife,  who  died  seven 
months  later,  while  in  Philadelphia,  and  those  of  his  grand- 
son, Aaron  Burr,  rest  in  the  cemetery  at  Princeton. 

On  the  22d  of  June,  1900,  just  a  hundred  and  fifty  years 
after  the  dismissal  of  Mr.  Edwards,  a  Memorial  Bronze 
Tablet  to  him  was  unveiled  in  the  First  Church  (his  church)

JONATHAN    EDWARDS, 

Minister  of  Northampton 

from  Feb.   15,   1727,  to  June  22,   1750. 

"  The  law  of  truth  was  in  his  mouth,  and  unrighteousness

uprightness,  and  did  turn  many  away  from  iniquity.  " —  Mai.

The  original  portraits  of  President  Edwards  and  his  wife 
were,  in  1870,  in  possession  of  the  family  of  Jonathan  Walter 
Edwards,  Esq.,  of  Hartford,  Conn.  "  They  were  painted 
about  the  year  1740,  ni  Boston,  at  the  request  and  expense, 
it  is  believed,  of  a  Mr.  Hogg,  and  were  forwarded  to  him  in 
Scotland.  At  the  decease  of  Mr.  Hogg  they  passed  into  the 
hands  of  his  sister,  who  presented  them  to  the  Rev.  John 
Erskine,  of  Edinburgh.  After  the  American  Revolution, 
Dr.  Jonathan  Edwards,  the  second  son  of  the  President, 
made  application  to  Dr.  Erskine  to  purchase  the  portraits, 
and  the  latter  gentleman  declined  to  sell  them;  but,  on  learn- 
ing that  no  other  portraits  of  the  President  and  his  wife 
existed,  he  sent  them  to  this  country  as  a  present  to  Dr. 
Edwards,  and  they  have  remained  in  my  father's  family 
since."  (Remarks  of  Jonathan  Edwards,  of  New  Haven,  at 
the  Edwards  Meeting,  at  Stockbridge,  1870.)

O  lustrous  eyes,  so  dark  and  deep, 

Filled  with  a  shimmering  haze! 
O  eyes  that  holy  vigils  keep!

As  I   return  your  gaze. 
Why  look  on  us  with  mild  surprise. 
Ancestress  of  the  beautiful  eyes?

anecdote  —  fascinating  to  me  as  a  child." 

2.  Edward  Edzvards,  born  at  Stockbridge,  Mass.,  January 
20,  1763;  married  Mary  Ballard,  of  Hadley,  Mass.,  daughter 
of  Joshua  and  Ruth  Ballard,  September  4,  1783  ;  she  was  born 
January  11,  1764,  and  died  at  Chenango,  N.  Y.,  February  12, 
1824.  Mr.  Edwards  died  at  Albion,  Mich.,  February  3,  1845, 
They  had  ten  children.  William  Edwards'  Memoirs  says  of 
Edward :  "  When  I  first  engaged  in  business  at  Northampton, 
my  brother  Edward  was  in  business,  and  doing  well,  at  Stock- 
bridge.  He  was  kind,  and  rendered  me  important  aid.  He 
removed  to  Broome  County,  N.  Y.,  about  the  year  1800,  and 
was  engaged  in  making  pine  lumber  on  the  Chenango  and 
Susquehanna  Rivers,  and  running  it  to  Baltimore.  He  made 
it  profitable  for  several  successive  years,  and  laid  such  induce- 
ments before  me  that  I  embarked  largely  with  him  in  pur- 
chasing timber  lands,  building  saw-mills,  establishing  a 
store,"  etc. 

Mrs.  Frances  Mather  remembered  her  uncle  Edward.  He 
was  very  tall,  six  feet  and  three  or  four  inches,  straight,  slen- 
der, and  of  an  uncommon  personal  beauty.  When  his  father 
was  commissioner  on  the  boundary  line,  as  before  mentioned, 
Edward,  who  was  with  him,  was  adopted  by  the  Indians,  and 
given  an  Indian  name,  which  meant  "  the  handsome  man." 
He  came  to  Bath,  N.  Y.,  and  was  interested  in  large  tracts  of 
land.  He  necessarily  lived  the  life  of  a  pioneer  in  that  new 
country;  was  elected  a  member  of  the  legislature,  and  was 
much  respected.  His  descendants  abound  in  middle  New 
York  and  in  Michigan. 

3.  Jonathan  Edzvards,  born  October  16,  1764;  married  his 
cousin  Lucy,  daughter  of  Jahleel  Woodbridge,  of  Stockbridge, 
November  20,  1778.  He  died  at  Binghamton,  N.  Y.,  Sep- 
tember, 1832;  she  died  at  Youngstown,  O.,  1848.  They  had 
eleven  children. 

Mrs.  Mather  remembered  Jonathan  well.  She  said  he  was 
remarkable  for  originality  and  wit.  In  his  early  life  his  father 
gave  him  a  farm  at  Stockbridge.  Some  one  who  lived  where 
Binghamton  now  is,  offered  to  exchange  land  for  the  farm,

and  Jonathan  thus  acquired  a  property  in  the  heart  of  that 
town.  There  he  Hved  many  years,  daily  calHng  upon  his 
sister,  Mary  Whiting. 

Mrs.  Mather  remembered  their  talks  of  early  struggles,  and 
of  the  life  at  Stockbridge.  "  He  and  my  mother  were  mighty 
in  prayer,  and  prayed  for  their  children's  children  to  the  latest 
generation  —  not  that  they  might  be  rich  and  prominent,  but 
that  they  might  love  and  honor  God."  He  died  and  was 
buried  at  Binghamton.  His  descendants  mostly  live  in  West- 
ern Pennsylvania  and  in  Northern  Ohio." 

4.  Richard  Edwards,  born  March  5,  1766;  married  Alia 
Visa  Griffin,  of  Abington,  Conn. ;  was  a  lawyer,  and  at  first 
practiced  in  Albany,  N.  Y.,  then  removed  to  Cooperstown, 
N.  Y.,  where  he  died,  in  1805.  Mrs.  Edwards  died  in  Stock- 
bridge,  181 1. 

Mrs.  Mather  spoke  of  Richard  as  "  a  brilliant  lawyer." 
Like  the  rest  of  the  men  of  that  family,  he  was  tall  and  fine 
looking. 

5.  Phcbe  Edwards,  born  November  4,  1768;  married  (i) 
Rev.  Asahel  Hooker,  June  11,  1792;  he  was  graduated  at 
Yale,  1789;  died  April  19,  1813.  They  had  four  children. 
She  married  (2)  Samuel  Farrer,  of  Andover,  Mass.,  and  died 
January  21,  1848.  Mr.  Farrer  was  born  December  13,  1773; 
died  — , .  "  Phebe  Edwards,  as  a  girl,  was  fond  of  read- 
ing, and  the  atm.osphere  of  her  father's  house  was  favorable 
to  the  cultivation  of  her  taste.  She  married  the  Rev.  Asahel 
Hooker,  of  Hartford.  Pie  was  descended,  m  the  fifth  gen- 
eration, from  the  Rev.  Thomas  Hooker.  Pie  was  settled  at 
Goshen,  Conn. ;  was  an  excellent  preacher,  his  aspect  and 
manner  winning,  and  his  voice  pleasant.  There  were,  at  an 
early  day,  in  Connecticut,  a  few  ministers  who  instructed 
young  men  in  systematic  theology,  preparatory  to  their  be- 
coming preachers.  After  the  death  of  Mr.  Backus,  one  of 
the  most  prominent  of  these  preachers,  the  importance  of 
establishing  a  theological  school  was  urged,  and  Mr.  Hooker 
was  fixed  on  by  his  brethren  as  the  proper  man  for  the  pur- 
pose. From  1803  to  iSio,  he  conducted  the  school  success- 
fully.    In  all,  thirty-two  youiig  men  were  his  pupils,  and  lived

in  his  house.  Among  these  were  Naah  Porter,  of  Farming- 
ton;  Heman  Humphrey,  Bennet  Tyler,  Abel  McEwen,  and 
Joshua  Huntington,  all  men  of  eminence  in  their  day. 

Mr,  Hooker's  health  failed,  and  at  his  own  request,  he  was 
dismissed  from  his  pastoral  charge,  in  1810,  and  removed  to 
Norwich,  Conn.,  where  he  soon  after  died. 

In  1814,  Mrs.  Hooker  married  Samuel  Farrer,  Esquire, 
Treasurer  of  the  Theological  Seminary  at  Andover,  Mass. 
This  position  was  much  adapted  to  her  habit  of  thought  and 
feeling.  She  soon  began  to  take  a  deep  interest  in  the  Semi- 
nary, and  everything  that  concerned  it.  Her  influence  as  an 
exemplary  Christian,  full  of  benevolent  sympathies,  zealous 
for  the  cause  of  Christ,  was  felt  by  all  those  who  came  in  con- 
tact with  her.  Her  regard  for  ministers  and  their  families, 
and  her  large  hospitality,  were  salutary  influences  at  Andover. 
She  retained  till  the  last  her  taste  for  reading,  and  an  interest 
in  everything  that  showed  progress  in  society.  She  consid- 
ered all  scientific  improvements,  all  inventions,  as  tending  to 
the  advancement  of  the  Redeemer's  kingdom.  The  winter 
in  which  she  died,  at  the  age  of  seventy-nine,  she  read  new 
books  on  astronomy ;  and  on  one  cold  evening,  when  a  gen- 
tleman of  the  neighborhood  brought  a  telescope,  and  set  it 
up  near  the  house,  she  went  out  on  the  snow  and  looked  at 
the  rings  of  Saturn.  She  died,  after  a  short  illness,  January 
22,  1848."     (From  notes  by  her  daughter,  Mrs.  Cornelius.) 

6.  IVUliam  Edzvards,  born  at  Northampton,  Mass.,  Novem- 
ber II,  1770;  married  Rebecca  Tappan,  of  Northampton, 
November  11,  1793;  died  at  Brooklyn,  N.  Y.,  December  29, 
1851.  She  was  born  July  14,  1775;  died  at  Brooklyn,  March 
27,  1857.     They  had  eleven  children. 

William  Edwards,  in  1847,  four  years  before  his  death, 
wrote  his  recollections,  which  were  printed  in  1898,  as 
"  Memoirs."  From  these  the  following  notes  are  taken :  In 
his  fourteenth  year,  young  Edwards  went  from  Stockbridge 
to  Elizabethtown,  N.  J.,  to  learn  the  tanning  trade  from 
his  uncle,  Oliver  Spencer,  and  began  an  apprenticeship,  but 
before  the  end  of  the  year  returned  to  Stockbridge  on  account 
of  his  health,  and  remained  there  until  1787.     While  at  home

the  Shays  insurrection  broke  out,  and  he  enUsted  in  a  Berk- 
shire regiment.  (For  his  interesting  account  of  this  war,  and 
his  experiences  connected  with  it,  see  the  Memoirs.)  He  re- 
turned to  EHzabethtown  and  resumed  his  duties.  He  joined 
a  Grenadier  Mihtia  Company,  and  was  the  fourth  of  the  com- 
pany in  stature,  measuring  six  feet  three  and  a  half  inches. 
When  General  Washington,  in  1789,  came  to  New  York  to 
be  inducted  into  the  office  of  President,  he  passed  through 
Elizabethtown,  and  while  at  breakfast  there,  at  the  house  of 
Samuel  Smith,  William  was  one  of  a  guard  composed  of  the 
six  tallest  men  of  his  company,  placed  at  the  house.  The 
soldiers  escorted  the  General  to  Elizabethtown  Point,  and 
were  reviewed  by  him  before  he  embarked  in  the  barge  for 
New  York.  This  experience,  William,  in  his  old  age,  spoke 
of  as  the  proudest  of  his  Hfe.  In  1789,  he  went  to  East  Had- 
dam.  Conn.,  to  perfect  himself  in  his  trade,  and  then,  by  the 
advice  of  his  father,  settled  in  Northampton,  before  he  was 
twenty  years  of  age.  Aided  by  friends,  he  built  a  tannery, 
introducing  changes  and  improvements  that  he  had  thought 
out  during  his  apprenticeship.  In  1799,  the  tannery  was  de- 
stroyed by  fire.  Again  his  friends  stood  by  him,  and  he  was 
enabled  to  put  up  a  much  larger  building,  and  to  introduce 
further  improvements.  During  these  years  at  Northampton, 
he  revolutionized  the  tanning  trade.  The  bark  mill,  the  heat- 
ers for  boiling  the  ground  bark,  the  hide  mill,  and  the  roll- 
ing machine,  were  but  part  of  his  patented  contrivances.  In 
1838,  the  Honorable  Gideon  Lee,  of  New  York,  in  an  address 
before  the  Electic  Fraternity,  after  enumerating  the  im- 
provements that  had  taken  place  in  tanning  during  the  last 
thirty  years  —  in  the  construction  of  tanneries  and  in  labor- 
saving  machinery  —  said :  "  The  invention  and  application  of 
these  important  im.provements  originated  chiefly  with  Colonel 
William  Edwards.  I  am  not  extravagant  in  rating  the  ben- 
efits of  his  improvements  at  millions.  They  have  spread,  and 
have  been  adopted  in  some  sort  or  measure  in  all  the  States 
where  leather  is  manufactured." 

In   1795,  William  married  Rebecca  Tappan,  daughter  of 
Benjamin  and  Sarah  Holmes  Tappan,  of  Northampton,  and 


Descendants  of  Timothy  and  Rhoda  Ogden  Edwards:      27 

sister  of  the  well  known  brothers,  Benjamin,  later  United 
States  Senator  from  Ohio,  John,  Charles,  Arthur,  and  Lewis 
Tappan.  On  her  mother's  side,  Rebecca  was  descended  from 
Mary  Franklin,  sister  to  Benjamin  Franklin.  During  the 
year  1800,  when  war  with  France  was  threatened,  troops  were 
raised  in  Massachusetts,  and  a  company  of  sixty  men  was 
organized  in  Northampton.  Of  this,  William  Edwards  was 
chosen  Captain.  When  their  three  months'  term  expired 
"we  were  cordially  received  into  the  regular  militia  of  the 
State,  where  I  v/as  raised,  first  to  the  rank  of  Major,  subse- 
quently to  that  of  Colonel.  In  1813,  when  Boston  was  threat- 
ened by  the  British,  I  commanded  a  regiment  of  artillery, 
consisting  of  four  companies.  Eleven  companies  were  or- 
dered to  rendezvous  at  Boston,  and  the  Governor  and  Coun- 
cil called  me  to  the  command  of  this  body  of  troops.  I  was 
two  months  in  the  service." 

Mr.  Edwards  represented  Northampton  at  the  General 
Court  repeatedly.  He  was  a  Federalist,  and  his  son,  WilHam 
W.  Edwards,  says  of  him  (Memoirs) :  "  No  man  exercised 
more  political  influence  in  his  town  and  State  than  he  did  in 
the  early  years  of  this  century.  He  was  entrusted  with 
various  offices  in  Northampton,  was  on  the  Board  of  Select- 
men, and  was  identified  with  every  measure  for  improvement 
in  the  town." 

In  the  time  of  contraction  succeeding  the  war,  the  corpo- 
rate company  which  had  been  organized  by  Mr.  Edwards  and 
friends  failed.  Aided  by  New  York  friends  who  were  in  the 
leather  business,  he  began  anew  in  the  wilderness,  1817,  in 
the  town  of  Hunter,  Greene  County,  N.  Y.,  and  erected  what 
was  for  years  the  largest  tannery  in  the  United  States.  In 
1830,  this  was  burned  to  the  ground,  but  was  rebuilt  the  same 
year  by  the  assistance  of  three  of  Mr.  Edwards'  sons.  He 
retired  from  business  in  1834.  The  last  years  of  his  life  were 
passed  in  Brooklyn,  at  the  home  of  his  son  Richard  and 
daughter  Elizabeth,  and  he  died  there  in  the  eighty-second 
year  of  his  age.  IMrs.  Edwards  survived  him  a  few  years. 
The  remains  of  the  two  lie  in  Greenwood  Cemeterv.

sea,  and  was  for  some  years  master  of  a  ship  between  Charles- 
ton and  Savannah,  and  Liverpool;  married  Sarah  Haigh,  of 
Huddersfield,  England,  1820,  and  soon  after  retired  from  his 
profession.  He  settled  at  first  at  Augusta,  Ga.,  as  a  cotton 
broker;  in  1829,  removed  to  Lexington,  Greene  County, 
N.  Y.,  and  engaged  in  tanning.  About  1835,  he  went  to 
Jersey  City,  N.  ].,  and  resided  there  with  his  children  until 

his  death  in .     For  some  years  he  was  a  Justice  of  the 

Peace  in  Jersey  City.     Mrs.  Edwards  died  in  Northampton, 
Mass.,  about  1840.     They  had  five  children. 

The  compiler  of  this  record  well  remembers  his  great-uncle, 
Timothy  Edwards,  both  at  Lexington  and  Jersey  City.  He

dark  complexion,  long  and  straight  black  hair,  and  piercing 
black  eyes ;  aquiline  nose ;  a  very  fine-looking  man,  and  con- 
spicuous in  any  assemblage.  He  delighted  to  talk  of  his 
sailor  life ;  was  at  St.  Petersburg  when  Napoleon  was  at  Mos- 
cow, 1813;  had  traded  at  Archangel,  and  derided  the  story  of 
the  maelstrom  ofi  the  coast  of  Norway,  which,  in  those  days, 
cut  a  figure  in  school  geographies.

hamton,  N.  Y.,  January  11,  1849.  She  died  January  21,  1873. 
They  had  eight  children. 

"  Full  of  life  and  gaiety  in  her  childhood,  Mary  Edwards 
could  dance  with  the  merriest,  turn  the  house  upside  down 
with  the  girls,  run  away  with  the  hearts  of  the  young  men, 
and  match  her  cousm,  Aaron  Burr,  in  fun  and  wit.  She  was 
a  great  favorite  of  her  father,  who  once  introduced  her  to 
some  of  his  Scotch  friends  as,  more  than  any  member  of  the 
family,  the  image  of  her  grandfather.  At  the  age  of  twenty- 
two  she  removed  with  her  husband,  a  young  Berkshire  law- 
yer, to  Chenango  Point,  at  the  junction  of  the  Chenango  and 
Susquehanna  Rivers,  now  Binghamton.  There  were  then 
only  two  or  three  houses  in  the  place,  and  the  county  was 
almost  a  wilderness.  She  was  one  of  the  few  original  mem- 
bers of  the  church  which,  some  time  after  her  arrival,  was 
organized.  Mr.  Whiting  was  the  leading  lawyer,  and  his 
house,  in  the  absence  of  hotels,  was  the  resort  of  the  lawyers 
and  judges  during  the  sessions  of  the  courts.  Mr.  Whiting 
had  a  genuine  love  of  nature  and  of  books,  and  he  cultivated 
in  his  children  tastes  for  both.  Mrs.  Whiting  was  the  chief 
educator  of  her  daughters,  and  impressed  upon  them,  in  an 
unusual  degree,  her  own  mental,  moral,  and  religious  char- 
acter. Her  religion  was  at  once  a  controlling  principle  and 
a  ruling  passion,  her  daily  business  and  her  constant  delight. 
She  was  interested,  to  the  end  of  her  life,  in  passing  events, 
in  the  business  and  pleasures  of  her  children  and  grandchil- 
dren, in  the  growth  of  the  town,  and  the  welfare  of  the  nation. 
Her  mind  was  as  clear  at  fourscore  and  ten  as  it  was  in  the 
prime  of  life.  She  died  at  the  age  of  ninety-two,  the  last  of 
the  children  of  Timothy  and  Rhoda  Ogden  Edwards.  The 
whole  city  of  Binghamton  was  moved  by  her  death.  All 
classes,  all  ages,  all  denominations,  all  nationalities,  crowded 
to  her  funeral."

Note  —  In  the  foregoing  pages  the  name  Pierpont  is  so  spelled, 
nowhere  being  transformed  into  Pierrepont,  a  different  name  altogether. 
In  the  General  Catalogue  of  Yale  College,  James  Pierpont  is  listed  as 
a  Fellow  from  October  16,  1701.  In  a  Latin  text-book  that  was  in  the 
possession  of  the  late  Rev.  John  Edwards,  of  San  Jose,  Cal.,  the  name 
"John  Pierpont"  is  written  by  his  own  hand  on  the  title  page,  and  on 
the  back  is  written  "  Mary  Pierpont's  Book,  1728."  In  the  General  Cat- 
alogue of  the  College  of  New  Jersey,  under  the  year  1768,  stands  the 
name  of  "Pierpont"  Edwards,  which  shows  how  the  youngest  son  of 
Jonathan  Edwards  spelled  his  name.  Nevertheless  that  name  of  late 
years  is  constantly  misspelled  Pierrepont,  when  Pierpont  Edwards  is 
spoken  of.

[From  Scribiicr's  Magazine  for  April,   1903.] 

TEN      CO-EDUCATED     GIRLS     TWO     HUNDRED 

YEARS  AGO. 

By  Mrs.  H.  M.  Plunkett,  of  Pittsfield,  Mass. 

On  November  6,  1694,  Rev.  Timothy  Edwards,  who  had 
been  chosen  to  become  the  pastor  of  a  newly  formed  church 
in  East  Windsor,  Conn. — sometimes  known  as  Windsor 
Farms — was  married  in  Northampton,  Mass.,  to  Miss  Esther 
Stoddard,  daughter  of  the  minister  of  that  town.  There  is 
no  record  of  how  the  lady  looked,  nor  of  what  she  wore  on 
the  occasion,  the  chronicles  of  that  time  only  noting  the  fact 
that  Miss  Stoddard  had  enjoyed  superior  advantages  for  edu- 
cation, having  been  sent  to  Boston  for  that  purpose.  The 
husband  was  24,  the  bride  22.  All  New  England  looked  to 
Harvard  College,  at  that  time,  to  stamp  the  hall-mark  on  abil- 
ity, and  no  doubt  Miss  Esther  was  duly  proud  of  the  fact  that 
the  man  of  her  choice  had  been  endowed  with  the  degree  of 
Bachelor  of  Arts  in  the  morning,  and  that  of  Master  of  Arts 
in  the  afternoon  of  the  same  day,  an  unprecedented  act  on 
the  part  of  the  college,  a  tribute  to  the  unsurpassed  scholar- 
ship of  Mr.  Edwards — a  scholarship  that  we  shall  see  was 
always  kept  bright,  and  never  allowed  to  lapse  into  desuetude, 
during  a  long  life.  The  wedding  journey  of  the  couple,  in- 
cluding some  family  visits,  lasted  eight  days,  when  they 
arrived  in  the  town  where  he  was  to  be  pastor  for  sixty-three 
years,  and  where  she  was  to  live  a  beautiful  and  influential 
life  as  his  helper,  and  where,  even  after  her  husband's  death, 
it  is  recorded  that  she  was  beloved  for  her  Christian  helpful- 
ness in  doing  all  that  she  could  to  increase  the  influence  of 
his   successor.     Very   few  parishes   could,   in   that   primitive

time,  pay  a  salary  adequate  to  support  a  minister,  without 
some  extraneous  assistance — this  assistance  often  taking  the 
form  of  a  farm.  In  Mr.  Edwards's  case,  his  father,  who  was  a 
successful  merchant  of  Hartford,  made  him  the  free  gift  of 
a  farm  and  build  him  a  house  on  it,  but  as  this  was  not  yet 
completed,  the  newly  married  pair  occupied  at  first  temporary 
quarters  otherwhere.  At  length  it  was  done,  and  it  was  an 
uncommonly  fine  and  really  "advanced"  house,  for  the  period. 
It  stood  with  its  long  front  to  the  street,  the  bare  architec- 
tural blankness  of  this  front  being  broken  at  the  center  by  a 
projection  which  formed  a  porch  about  the  front  door  on  the 
first  story,  and  in  the  second,  made  a  room  of  closet-like  pro- 
portions, but  called  the  "study" — within  the  walls  of  which 
were  produced  for  sixty-three  years  the  sermons  that  formed 
the  chief  intellectual  pabulum  of  that  people,  outside  the  Bible. 
Few  and  small  were  the  windows,  made  of  tiny  diamond 
panes  set  in  lead,  eloquent  of  the  costliness  of  glass.  Our 
ancestors  held  the  theory  that  an  air-space  under  a  house 
made  it  cold,  so  this  house  had  no  visible  underpinning,  but 
seemed  planted  in  the  soil.  The  second  story  projected 
beyond  the  first — tradition  has  it,  so  as  to  be  able  to  shoot 
Indian  marauders,  of  which,  in  this  vicinity,  there  were  too 
many  for  the  comfort  of  the  intruding  pale  faces.  The  roof 
was  steep — made  of  "nved"  shingles,  which  were  never 
changed,  and  still  serviceable  Ti8  years  afterward,  when  the 
house  was  taken  down.  The  stepping  stone  was  utilized 
again  by  the  man  who  built  upon  its  site,  but  in  1834  it  was 
bought  from  him,  and  made  the  corner-stone  of  the  Theologi- 
cal Institute  of  Connecticut.  The  house  had  some  very 
superior  woodwork  on  the  inside,  one  feature  of  which  was  a 
bench,  running  round  three  sides  of  one  of  the  rooms,  and 
which  has  an  important  relation  to  our  theme.  As  New  Eng- 
land parishes  were  rated,  at  that  time,  this  of  East  Windsor 
iwas  esteemed  one  of  the  best.  Nearly  every  parishioner  was 
a  farmer ;  even  the  owner  of  the  only  gristmill  and  the  store- 
keeper had  their  farms.  An  account-book  belonging  to  a 
deacon,  andRev.  Mr.  Edwards's  "rate-book"  (really  the  parish 
record)  are  still  extant,  and  as  the  latter  gentleman  had  a

habit  of  making  quaint  and  piquant  memoranda  in  connection 
[with  some  of  the  items  of  cash  or  produce  paid  to  him,  they 
throw  a  flood  of  hght  on  the  manners,  customs,  and  ideas  of 
the  time.  Payments  were  faithfuhy,  but  not  ahvays  promptly, 
made,  and  the  minister  found  it  impossible  to  live  on  his 
salary  without  adding  the  labor  of  a  tutor;  hence  he  always 
had  young  men  fatting  for  college  in  his  family,  and  his  rate- 
book shows  that  young  men  who  could  not  spare  time  in  the 
day,  came  to  him  in  the  evening  to  be  instructed  in  penman- 
ship. 

The  meeting-house  was  not  completed  till  three  years 
after  Mr.  Edwards's  marriage — the  congregation  meanwhile 
assembling  in  a  barn — and  although  he  exercised  every  func- 
tion of  the  Congregational  priesthood,  he  was  not  formally 
ordained  until  the  two  ceremonies  of  dedicating  the  church 
and  the  complete  induction  of  the  pastor,  called  ordina- 
tion, could  be  combined  in  one  joyful  occasion.  It  occurred 
in  1698.  Previous  to  this  his  house  had  been  completed, 
and  two  of  the  young  women,  whose  completed  circle  is  ten, 
had  appeared  on  this  earthly  scene.  This  double  ceremonial 
was  the  happy  goal  toward  v/hich  both  pastor  and  people  had 
been  looking  for  many  years,  and,  accustomed  as  we  are  to 
think  of  those  early  Puritans  as  leading  austere  and  joyless 
lives,  it  is  a  surprise  to  learn  that  the  religious  ceremonies 
were  followed  by  an  Ordination  Ball  in  the  minister's  house — 
one  of  the  invitations  in  the  young  pastor's  handwriting,  bear- 
ing his  autograph,  being  still  in  existence.  A  careful  list  of 
"provisions  laide  in  at  the  house  of  Mr.  Edwards  for  his 
ordination,"  is  still  extant  in  the  account-book  of  his  accurate 
deacon.  Of  actual  viands  sent,  there  were  eighty-eight  pounds 
of  "beefe,"  fourteen  of  mutton,  eighteen  of  veal ;  souger,  ten 
pounds ;  wheat,  meal,  cheese,  butter,  eggs,  salt,  pepper,  sidar, 
rum,  malt,  hops,  wine,  and  money  distinctly  called  "wine- 
money,"  and  also  spice-money,  while  many  gave  actual  cash. 
We  feel  justified  in  believing  that  "everybody  who  was  any- 
body" was  invited  to  partake  of  this  generous  feast,  and  we 
are  certain  that  that  parish  had  at  least  one  "jolly  good  time" 
in  its  life. 


142  Genealogy  of  the  Edwards  Family. 

Mrs.  Edwards  had  a  high  ideal  of  the  loftiness  of  the 
pastor's  vocation,  and,  that  her  hurband  might  be  free  to  ful- 
fill its  duties,  took  upon  herself  the  burden  of  their  temporali- 
ties— so  that  her  gifted  and  honored  spouse  could  educate  his 
young  men,  and  care  for  the  souls  of  his  parishioners,  unham- 
pered by  petty  cares.  When  there  was  a  cjuestion  of  how 
many  and  what  hides  the  tanner  ought  to  return  to  him,  he 
says,  "My  wife  knows";  and  other  references  to  her  show 
that  she  "looked  to  the  ways  of  her  household,"  notwith- 
standing the  superior  Boston  education  she  had  received.  Of 
her  eleven  children  the  fifth  was  a  son — ^Jonathan ;  the  rest 
were  daughters,  the  youngest  born  when  the  oldest  was  22.  It 
was  a  busy  and  no  doubt  a  lively  household,  and  it  is  pleasant 
to  read  that  "From  the  house  the  land  sloped  toward  the  east 
to  a  brook  that  flowed  at  the  foot  of  a  steeper  hill,  which 
was  tlien  crowned  with  a  beautiful  forest  of  primeval  trees. 
.  .  .  To  this  spot  Mr.  Edwards  was  accustomed  to  go  for 
seclusion,  and  there  his  son  Jonathan  built  the  booth  wherein 
he  held  soul-inspiring  converse  with  God."  We  can  imagine 
him  escaping  in  desperation  from  such  a  girls'-nest  as  the 
house  must  have  been  to  this  precursor  of  the  modern  "den." 

As  the  minds  of  the  ten  daughters  began  to  unfold,  and  as 
there  were  no  schools  to  send  them  to,  the  father  undertook 
to  train  them  himself.  He  did  not  stop  to  inquire  whether 
co-educating  his  girls  right  along  with  the  fitting-for-college 
students  would  lead  to  atrophy  of  the  muscles,  or  of  the  afifec- 
tions,  but  just  did  it.  He  had  a  school,  with  a  high  standard, 
beneath  his  own  roof  Harvard  and  Yale  Colleges  accepted 
"Mr.  Edwards's  students"  without  examination ;  and  that  he 
held  his  girls  to  the  same  standard  is  proved  by  the  fact  that 
when  called  away  from  home,  as  he  often  was  in  his  capacity 
of  emJnent  divine,  he  left  the  instruction  in  Latin  and  Greek 
to  his  daughters,  and  particularly  directs  that  they  shall  not 
fail  to  hear  the  recitations  of  the  young  men,  in  the  letters 
that  he  sends  back.  In  his  account-book  he  records  every 
day's  instruction  to  these  young  men,  which  was  paid  for  at 
the  rate  of  three  shillings  a  week,  and  makes  note  of  the  time 
given  to  them  by  his  daughters,  for  we  may  be  sure  that  the 


Appendix.  143 

money  value  of  these  services  by  the  co-educated  ten  was 
not  ignored  by  them.  Among  the  credits  in  his  account- 
book  is  a  raem.orandum  of  a  shilHng  paid  by  one  North  to  my 
daughter  -Mary  for  covering  a  fan,  and  there  are  other  sim- 
ilar entries.  That  a  knowledge  of  Latin  and  Greek  had  not 
eradicated  the  fondness  for  distinctively  feminine  work  is 
shown  by  the  fact  that  specimens  of  Miss  Mary's  embroidery 
— a  scarf,  an  apron,  and  a  pair  of  slippers — now  owned  by  the 
Connecticut  Historical  Society,  can  to-day  be  seen  in  the 
Hartford  Athenaeum. 

An  effort  has  been  made  to  discover  the  specific  effect  of 
the  education  above  described,  or  the  subsequent  character, 
conduct,  and  lives  of  the  women  whose  scholarly  father  had 
boldly  reared  his  daughters  in  scholarly  ways.  He  knew  the 
advantage  of  travel  and  contact  with  other  circles  than  one's 
own,  and  one  after  another  they  were  sent  to  Boston  for 
some  of  the  superior  advantages  afforded  by  that  city.  As 
Mr.  Edwards  had  come  to  be  a  very  influential  man  in  all  re- 
ligious matters — in  fact  was  the  man  to  whom  other  parishes 
looked  for  counsel  when  in  difficulties  (which  was  not  sel- 
dom)— his  house  was  much  frequented  by  ministers,  old  and 
young;  and  not  a  few  were  attracted  thither  by  the  charms 
of  this  galaxy  of  ''Edwards's  girls,"  seven  of  w'hom  married. 
Two  died — one  at  19  and  one  at  21.  Of  the  seven  who  mar- 
ried, five  lived  to  ages  ranging  from  60  to  91,  the  one  whose 
life  was  shortest  living  to  60 ;  so  we  must  infer  that  the 
superior  education  did  not  tend  to  shortness  of  life ;  but 
we  look  again,  a.nd  note  that  none  of  them  married  younger 
than  24,  and  on  studying  the  reason  of  this,  we  find  that  some 
of  them  had  "long  engagements,"  the  fashion  then  being  for  a 
man  to  build  a  house  before  he  literally  brought  a  bride 
"home";  and  of  the  three  who  married  ministers,  two  had  to 
iwait  till  their  lovers  had  been  "called''  by  some  parish,  and 
proved  worthy  of  that  "settlement  for  life"  that  was  then  the 
fashion  m  ecclesiastical  circles. 

The  one  daughter — Mary — who  remained  single  was  the 
support  and  helper  of  her  father,  living  to  the  age  of  74,  and 
outliving  her  sire  by  five  years.    Her  epitaph  reads  thus : 


144  Genealogy  of  the  Edwards  Family. 

Genius,  Knowledge,  Prudence, 

Joyn'd  with  Social  Words, 

By  Grace  refined,  Adorned  her  life. 

Deserved  a  name 
Which  few  of  either  sex  can  claim. 

These  girls  showed  uncommonly  good  judgment  in  the 
selection  of  husbands,  for  we  find  them  united  to  men  of 
character  and  high  moral  worth,  who  filled  influential  posi- 
tions in  their  respective  towns,  even  when  not  ministers,  and 
at  that  time  the  minister  was  the  dominant  figure  in  every 
community.  Mr.  Edwards's  oldest  granddaughter — Elizabeth 
Huntington — was  married  to  Abraham  Davenport,  of  Stam- 
ford, of  whom  we  find  the  following  in  the  pages  of  Dr. 
Dwight :  "The  19th  of  May,  1780,  was  a  remarkably  dark 
day.  Candles  were  lighted  in  many  houses ;  the  birds  were 
silent  and  disappeared,  and  the  fowls  retired  to  roost.  The 
Legislature  of  Connecticut  was  then  in  session  at  Hartford. 
A  very  general  opinion  prevailed  that  the  Day  of  Judgment 
was  at  hand.  The  House  of  Representatives,  being  unable  to 
transact  their  business,  adjourned.  A  proposal  to  adjourn 
the  Council,  also,  was  under  consideration,  when  the  opinion 
of  Colonel  Davenport  was  asked;  he  answered:  'I  am  against 
an  adjournment.  The  Da)'  of  Judgment  is  either  approaching 
or  it  is  not.  If  it  is  not,  there  is  no  cause  for  an  adjourn- 
ment ;  if  it  is,  I  choose  to  be  found  doing  my  duty.  I  wish, 
therefore,  that  candles  may  be  brought.* " 

Of  all  this  group  of  daughters  w'ho  are  said  to  have 
grown  up  "to  fill  positions  of  eminence  and  usefulness,"  but 
one  has  left  any  personal  memorial.  This  gives  us  a  true  pic- 
ture of  her  mind  and  heart,  for  at  that  day  it  was  a  common 
practice  to  record  and  communicate  spiritual  impressions, 
and  states  \v\\h.  a  frankness  which  our  more  reticent  time  finds 
it  difificult  to  understai\d. 

This  mem.orial  consists  of  a  diary,  in  her  own  handwrit- 
ing, on  small  bits  of  paper  clipped  from  the  tops  and  bottoms 
of  letters,  sometimes  on  the  back  of  an  entire  letter — for 
paper  wai  a  scarce  and  precious  commodity — running 
through  nearly  fifty  years.  The  whole  is  wrapped  in  a  large 
sheet    of    actual    animal    parchment,    folded    carefully,  and 


Appendix.  145 

indorsed  in  her  own  hand,  "Esther  Edwards's  Diary."  There 
is  a  tradition  that,  previous  to  1723,  when  she  was  25,  she  had 
passed  through  a  season  of  deep  spiritual  darkness  and  doubt, 
but  that  upon  taking  a  journey  to  Boston,  she  immediately 
passed  into  a  peaceful  and  happy  state.  Some  would  argue 
that  her  trouble  was  a  physical  one  that  "a.  change  of  scene" 
would  set  right,  and,  some  would  say,  possibly  a  Boston 
preacher  had  the  happiness  to  present  the  old  truth  at  a  fresh 
angle.  On  February  20,  1823,  she  says :  "I  am  much  indis- 
posed in  body,  and  in  a  very  dead  frame  of  mind.  Will  the 
second  Adam  become  a  quickening  spirit  to  my  dead  soul?  I 
experienced  something  I  want  words  to  express.  It  was 
superior  to  what  I  have  found  these  many  years,  and  hope  it 
was  that  peace  of  God  that  passeth  understanding." 

"February  23d. — I  have  this  morning  been  refreshed  with 
divine  consolations."  Somebody  has  wittily  said  that  the  con- 
sciousness of  being  well  dressed  has  a  more  sustaining  power 
than  religion  itself  for  a  woman ;  and  the  next  entry  shows 
a  genuine  human  touch  that  makes  us  love  her. 

"March  7th. — 1  was  this  day,  upon  my  looking  more 
comely  than  ordinary,  stirred  up  in  thankfulness  to  God, 
whom  I  saw  to  be  the  Fountain  of  all  Perfection,  and  that  I 
might  of  His  fullness  receive  every  good  thing.  He  appeared 
to  me  a  God  able  and  ready  to  help  me." 

There  is  much  of  introspection  and  a  minute  record  of  the 
states  of  religious  feeling  experienced  at  different  times. 

The  second  daughter  had  been  betrothed  and  married  in 
1724.  One  of  the  invitations  to  her  wedding  is  still  extant, 
and  runs : 

"Sr.  This  comes  from  myself  and  wife  as  an  Invitation  to 
y'self  and  Sister,  to  my  Daughter  Betty's  Wedding,  ye  day 
intended  for  which  is  the  next  Tuesday.  I  therefore  do 
hereby  request  you  both  to  be  at  my  house  on  that  occasion 
that  day,  at  about  three  of  the  Clock  in  the  afternoon, 
■whereby  you  will  oblige

Whether  this  precedence  over  Miss  Esther  had  anything 
to  do  with  some  of  her  "low,"  "dull,"  and  "dead"  frames  of 
mind  is  not  known,  but  previous  to  1726  there  appear  frequent 
allusions  to  a  person  who  is  not  indicated  even  by  initials,  but 
certain  cabalistic  marks  are  made  to  do  duty  for  the  name  of 
one  who  had  evidently  taken  the  first  place  in  Miss  Esther's 
heart.  Every  entry  contains  a  petition  for  the  cabaHstic  gentle- 
man. A  clergym.an  in  those  times  looked  for  a  parish  before 
he  allowed  himself  to  think  of  marrying;  and  how  long  before 
the  present  date  Rev.  Samuel  Hopkins  had  been  engaged  to 
her  we  do  not  know,  but  on  October  2,  1726,  we  find  this 
entry:  "I  was  inlarged  in  my  thanksgivings  because  God  had 
wrought  the  affair  of  my  settling  in  the  world  to  such  a 
pass  as  it  is.  Also  encouraged  thereby  to  trust  in  Him 
still,  yt  He  would  appear  and  do  great  things,  even  as  my 

case  should  require,  in  particular  in  respect  to "  (here  the 

cabalistic  mark).  She  occasionally  chides  herself  for  discon- 
tent, or  pride,  but  the  leading  object  in  all  is  the  cabalistic 

unknown, .     She  says:     "My  eyes  were  to  God  all  day 

long  for  ,"  and  even  in  reading  a  treatise  on  the  eter- 
nity of  God   she   was    pleased   to   discover    "my    happiness 

in  ."      In    June  of  1727  she  was  united  in  marriage  to 

Mr.  Hopkins,  who  had  been  settled  as  the  pastor  of  West 
Springfield,  Mass.  She  now  records  in  her  diary,  especially 
on  a  communion  Sabbath,  that  she  "was  inlarged  in  my  peti- 
tions for  my  dear  spouse  that  he  may  have  all  spiritual  bless- 
ings, and  all  those  ministerial  accomplishments  that  may  ren- 
der him  a  man  of  God,  thoroughly  furnished."  She  passes 
forward  in  life  through  the  experience  of  motherhood,  and, 
as  we  should  expect,  is  very  earnest  in  prayers  for  the  con- 
version of  her  children.  In  1729  she  was  much  reduced  by 
fever  and  ague,  and  was  advised  to  take  a  journey  to  New 
Haven.  She  started  when  so  weak  that  she  could  hardly 
mount  her  horse,  and  reached  Waterbury,  where  her  hus- 
band's relatives  lived,  so  exhausted  that  she  stayed  there 
two  weeks,  and,  no  sooner  had  she  reached  New  Haven 
than  she  was  n^et  by  a  messenger  bearing  the  news  of  the 
death  of  her  daughter  Esther.     The  entries  in  the  journal 


Appendix.  147 

show  the  tender  mother,  as  well  as  the  truly  resigned  Chris- 
tian, and  all  along  are  notes  of  her  earnest,  anxious  prayers 
for  her  sisrers  and  children  and  husband. 

In  1 741  there  occurred  a  great  religious  movement,  known 
as  the  Great  Awakening,  which  had  spread  from  Northamp- 
ton, where  it  began  under  the  preaching  of  her  brother 
Tonatlian.  Whitefield's  preaching  had  been  instrumental  in 
a  great  religious  quickening,  and  had  inaugurated  a  new 
style  of  preaching.  Barber — the  historian  of  Connecticut — 
says :  "The  religious  people  were  divided  into  the  'New 
Lights'  and  'Old  Lights.'  The  former  were  active  and  zeal- 
ous in  the  discharge  of  everything  which  they  conceived  to 
be  their  religious  duty,  and  were  in  favor  of  Mr.  Whitcfield 
and  others  itiuv^rating  through  the  country,  stirring  up  the 
people  to  reform,"  etc.  Whereupon  the  Grand  Council  at 
Guilford  said :  "That  for  a  minister  to  enter  into  another 
man's  parish,  and  preach,  or  administer  the  seals  of  the  cov- 
enant, without  the  consent  of  or  in  opposition  to  the  settled 
minister,  is  disorderly."  Most  of  the  council  were  "Old 
Lights,"  and  expelled  the  "enthusiasts" — as  they  called  them. 
Rev.  Eleazar  Wheelock — afterward  President  of  Dartmouth 
College — when  it  was  established  to  educate  Indians  for  mis- 
sionaries among  their  ovv'n  people — and  Jonathan  Edwards 
were  among  the  "New  Lights"  who  approved  of  and  took 
part  in  evangelistic  services,  supplementary  to  the  regular 
services  in  many  churches.  "Dead"  was  the  word  applied 
to  many  churches  that  had  fallen  into  routine.  It  is  easily 
supposable  that  the  irruption  of  an  evangelistic  "son  of  thun- 
der" is  not  at  all  times  the  most  welcome  sort  of  a  visit  to  a 
peaceful,  steady-going  pastor.  Airs.  Hopkins  records,  on 
March  15,  1742,  that  she  "has  heard  of  Mr.  Wheelock's 
arrival  in  Lonemeadow,"  and  the  next  dav  savs  she  has 
"heard  of  some  going  round  to  get  subscriptions  for  preach- 
ing in  this  place,"  and  the  next  day  says,  "J^hn  Ely  came 
to  talk  to  Mr.  H.  about  Mr.  Wheelock's  preaching  among 
us ;  apprehends  great  danger  to  this  people  and  much  detri- 
ment to  the  interests  of  religion."  One  can  not  repress  a 
smile  at  the  thouglit  of  that  affectionate  sister's  requests  at 


1^8  Genealogy  of  the  Edwards  Family. 

this  time  being  chiefly  for  her  distinguished  brother  Jonathan 
— "that  it  would  please  God  to  enlighten  him,  and  show  him 
the  way  of  truth,  and  that  if  he  had  embraced  any  error,  that 
he  might  be  recovered."  On  August  3,  1743,  she  says: 
"What  is  the  matter?  I  was  last  night  in  company  with  one 
of  the  'New  Lights.'  I  could  hardly  bear  the  room."  On 
March  12,  1744,  she  writes:  "Some  things  occurred  this 
morning  which  made  it  appear  very  doubtful  whether  my 
dear  brother  would  ever  come  off  of  some  principles  which 
appeared  to  me  were  detrimental  to  religion." 

Mrs.  Hopkins  survived  eleven  years  after  the  death  of 
the  husband,  who  had  remained  the  pastor  of  his  first  and 
only  parish  for  thirty-six  years.  The  record  on  her  tombstone 
is :  "Mrs.  Esther  Hopkins,  Relict  of  ye  late  Revd.  Mr.  Sam'll 
Hopkins  (in  whom  a  superior  understanding,  uncommon 
Improvements  in  Knowledge,  Exemplary  Piety,  and  exalted 
Virtue  combined  to  form  a  distinguished  female  character), 
deceased  June  7,  1766,  in  ye  72d  year  of  her  age."  The  whole 
is  surmounted  by  a  cherubic  face,  surrounded  by  stars — 
indicative  of  a  beatified  spirit. 

Mrs.  Plunkett  is  a  descendant  of  Esther  Edwards  Hopkins.
