PREFACE
I From early boyhood the writer has found pleasure in
^ collecting items relative to the histor}^ of the family of each
^^ of his beloved grandparents, and from these his rela-
.^ ^ tive, Mrs. Josephine Genung Nichols, has compiled the
^ present Uttle volume on the genealogical relations of the
descendants of John Townsend and Jemima Tra\is.
After fifty years of fruitless search for his or her parent-
age, or the date and place of their marriage, we have
concluded that it is wisest to publish at once, and stimu-
late all to further search in that direction.
It may be worth while to mention the traditions, that
John Townsend was of Oyster Ba}', that he had a brother
Thomas, that two of his sisters married Tompkins and
Appleb}^, that he came into Putnam county from the
east (viz. Connecticut?), that he was related to Penn
Townsend or to Piatt Townsend, that he came from
the Society of Friends, that the famih^ had gone to Rhode
Island with persecuted Friends from Long Island, and that
ihe ancestor was one Christopher Townsend. But these
are vague statements and uncertain traditions, depending
on the memory of persons advanced in age, and are
liable to need much correction, so that we ought not to
include them in a history that is generally based on
reliable documentary e^idence. Such items preferably
go in foot notes or appendices.
All that is definitely known of John Townsend's early
life comes from entries in a family Bible in the possession
of his Ganong descendants in Wayne Co., Mich., which
states the birthplace of his daughter, Elizabeth (No.
6 PREFACE
412), as Southeast, Dutchess County, N. Y., and the
place of her marriage to Jeremiah Ganong as Fredericks,
N. Y. These statements bear out many of the tradition-
ary locaUties. We have examined many collections of
church records, cemetery inscriptions, census and probate
records, land transfers, and the like, but nothing is found
that satisfies us. There were living, at the same period,
many John Townsends, and the names, Elijah and
Gilbert, as well as other names in this family, were very
common among the Putnam and Dutchess County fami-
lies of Townsends, but there is no positive proof of
their connection with this particular John Townsend.
His son, Gilbert Townsend (No. 4), was one of the early
settlers in Delaware County, N. Y., and lived near the
large tract of land taken up by Piatt Townsend, of the
Long Island ancestry, but diligent search in the rec-
ords of that locality, and of Piatt Townsend's family, fail
to give evidence of relationship between the two families.
After a few years in Delaware Count}^, Gilbert Townsend
migrated with his family further westward, to the ''Lake
Country," and there, at the settlement named Town-
sendville in his honor, he was joined by his father, John
Townsend, and his brother, Elijah. From this point as
a center, many generations of their descendants have
spread in all directions. The old homestead is still in
the possession of the family, and a younger Elijah
Townsend (No. 406) is now living near the site of the
original house, and of the old Townsendville Methodist
Church, in w^hich so many of the family have been
leaders, and near the cemetery where so many of the
family have been buried.
The records of Elijah Townsend (No. 273) and Eliza-
beth Townsend (No. 412), with their descendants, and
giving the Ganong ancestry back to Jean Guenon, the
PREFACE 7
Huguenot, are also to be found in the Genung-Ganong
Genealogy (1906), compiled by L. Nelson and Josephine
Genung Nichols.
Large collections have also been made by the writer
of data concerning other branches of the Townsend
family, but it does not belong to our intention to publish
these fragments; on the contrary they are put at the
disposal of those other searchers to whom they may be
most useful. They will probably be deposited eventually
in the archives of the New York Genealogical and
Biographical Society,
I hope all who are descended from our John Town-
send and Jemima Travis will contribute facts and data
additional to what is here published, and thus enable
Mrs. Nichols to prepare for a second edition, if ever any-
one is so fortunate as to discover the history of the family
to which the founders of our branch belong.
