PREFACE 

In  the  well  known  Hyde  Genealogy,  compiled  b}-  Chan- 
cellor Walworth,  is  a  short  sketch  of  the  Wadhams  Fam- 
ily tracing  it  back  to  the  settler,  John  Wadham,  of 
Wethersfield,  Connecticut.  The  data  for  this  sketch 
was  furnished  by  my  uncle,  the  Right  Reverend  Edgar  P. 
Wadhams.  Later  he  obtained  some  further  data  and, 
on  his  becoming  Bishop  of  Ogdensburg,  he  gave  this  ma- 
terial to  me  with  the  request  that  I  continue  the  work. 
During  the  past  twenty-five  years,  but  more  especially 
during  the  past  five  years,  I  have  pursued  the  task  of 
obtaining  all  available  information  relating  to  those  of 
the  name  of  Wadhams  in  America  and  elsewhere.  Not- 
withstanding my  best  endeavors  it  is  probable  that  a  con- 
siderable number  of  those  who  should  have  been  included 
in  the  work  have  not  been  found.  The  lineage  of  a  few 
families  by  the  name  of  Wadhams  has  been  traced  to  a 
certain  extent,  but  their  connection  with  the  main  branch 
of  the  family  has  not  yet  been  established.  The  records 
of  these  will  be  found  in  the  Unconnected  Lines. 

In  the  preparation  of  the  work  I  have  freely  consulted 
and  availed  myself  of  information  from  a  considerable 
number  of  genealogical  works  to  which  I  am  much  in- 
debted. To  the  menibors  of  th'e  fc-miiy  in  all  parts  of  our 
country  who  have  sc  kindly  responaed  to  the  requests  for 
data  for  this  genealog-y  I  v/ish  to  return  sincere  thanks. 
To  my  husband.  Doctor  George  Thomas  Stevens,  I  make 
grateful  acknowledgement  for  h's  svmpathetic  aid  which 
has  made  this  work  possible.  I  wish  also  to  thank  my 
son.  Doctor  Charles  Wadhams  Stevens,  who  has  efficient- 
ly aided  me  both  in  research  and  in  preparation  of  the 
manuscript.

THE  WADHAM  FAMILY  IN  ENGLAND 

The  Wadham  Family  in  England  was  one  of  great 
wealth  and  distinction  as  early  as  before  the  middle  of 
the  fourteenth  century,  when  we  have  the  mention  of 
Sir  John  Wadham,  who  had  come  into  possession  of  a 
manor  in  Knowston,  near  South  Molton,  in  the  north  of 
Devon,  known  as  the  manor  of  Wadeham  or  Wadham, 
so  called  by  its  former  owner,  Ulf,  the  Saxon,  in  whose 
family,  according  to  Lyson,  in  his  "Magna  Britannia,"  it 
had  been  "held  in  demesne  ever  since  the  time  of  Edward 
the  Confessor  (1042),  and  that  it  was  not  improbable 
he,  Ulf,  might  have  been  the  ancestor  of  the  family  of 
Wadham,  of  whom  this  was  the  original  residence." 

Whether  on  taking  possession  of  this  manor  the  new 
owner  also  assumed  the  name  Wadham — literally,  "home 
by  the  ford," — is  not  known. 

During  the  reign  of  Edward  III  (1327-1377),  Sir  John 
also  became  the  possessor  of  the  estate  of  the  ancient  fam- 
ily Branscombe,  which,  like  Knowston,  was  situated  in 
the  romantic  and  picturesque  county  of  Devon.  It  is 
quite  probable  that  both  these  fine  estates,  which  re- 
mained in  their  possession  for  nearly  three  hundred  years, 
were  occupied  by  the  family  at  different  seasons,  though 
Prince  states  that  they  "migrated"  to  Branscombe,  which 
is  by  the  sea.  Since  they  continued,  however,  to  reside  at 
East  and  West  Wadham,  in  the  north  of  Devon,  it  is 
more  than  likely  that  each  of  these  estates  was  occupied 
alternately  as  the  family  seat. 

The  memory  of  the  members  of  the  family  from  gener- 
ation to  generation  has  been  preserved  in  the  churches  at 
Branscombe,  Whitechurch-Canonicorum,  Ilton  and  II- 
minster,  for  these  gentlemen  seem  to  have  been  noted  for 
their  piety,  as  were  their  wives  for  their  large  families. 
The  men  appear  to  have  rejoiced  in  erecting  or  enlarging 
churches,  while  the  women  took  a  laudable  pride  in  the 

I

number  of  tlieir  offspring.  A  family  of  from  ten  to  a 
score  of  sons  and  daughters  seems  to  have  been  about  the 
standard  for  these  notable  dames. 

The  earliest  mention  of  a  Wadham  of  Wadham  Manor 
is  that  of  Sir  John  Wadham,  who  was  probably  descended 
from  William  de  Wadham,  said  by  Pole,  in  his  Disserta- 
tion on  Devon,  to  have  been  a  freeholder  in  the  time  of 
Edward  I  (1272  to  1307). 


1  iransconilie  Church 

At  Ilminster.  a  town  now  of  about  seven  thousand 
inhabitants,  situated  in  Somersetshire,  is  the  fine  old  par- 
ish church.  The  beautiful  north  transept,  the  Wadham 
aisle  as  it  was  called,  is  said  to  have  been  erected  by  the 
Wadhams,  and  was  for  many  generations  their  burial 
place.  This  transept,  which  is  a  fine  example  of  the  Per- 
pendicular, and   still   contains  two  statelv   tombs  of  the 


Wadham  Family  in  England  3 

Wadham  family,  dates  from  the  middle  of  the  fifteenth 
century.  The  earlier  and  grander  of  the  two  is  a  large 
altar  tomb  supporting  a  marble  slab  on  which  are  the 
brasses.  The  inscription,  now  nearly  effaced,  is  supposed 
to  be  in  memory  of  Sir  William,  the  father  of  Sir  John. 

The  son  of  this  Sir  John  was  also  Sir  John,  otherwise 
known  as  "The  Judge,"  who  was  King's  Sergeant  and 
one  of  the  Justices  of  the  Common  Pleas  during  the  reign 
of  Richard  II  (1377  ^o  1399).  Little  is  known  of  him, 
though  he  is  said  to  have  been  a  man  of  pleasant  de- 
meanor and  of  good  judgment.  This  last  would  seem  to 
be  confirmed  by  the  statement  of  Pole  (Sir  W.  Pole, 
Dissertation  on  Devon),  that  he  "added  considerably  to 
the  family  estate  and  laid  the  foundation  of  their  social 
importance."  ' 

Naturally  these  men  of  great  estates  formed  desirable 
alliances  by  marriage,  for,  as  stated  by  Prince  in  his 
Worthies  of  Devon  :  "Five  of  these  were  knights  who 
matched  with  divers  daughters  and  heirs  and  became  al- 
lied to  many  great  and  noble  houses,  as  Plantagenet, 
Worthesly,  Bridges,  Popham,  Strangways,  Tregarthain, 
etc.,  as  may  further  appear  from  this  pedigree  thereof." 
(Prince,  Worthies  of  Devon,  p.  588,  folio  ed.  1701.)  The 
acquisition  of  landed  estates  appears  to  have  been  a  char- 
acteristic procedure  with  the  people  of  this  name  in  these 
early  times,  for  we  are  told  that,  in  addition  to  the  estates 
at  Wadham  and  Branscombe,  that  of  Redworthy  in  xA.sh- 
reigny  was,  1411,  granted  by  Thomas  Nithev/ay  to  Sir 
John  Wadham  and  Jane  his  wife,  with  remainder  to 
Thomas,  his  son.  Also  William  Burleston  conveyed  to 
the  same  Sir  John  (the  Judge)  and  his  wife  Jane  the 
manor  of  Lustleigh.  But  beyond  these  estates  the  Judge 
purchased  "The  whole  of  the  manor  of  Silverton,  sithens 
which  tyme  it  has  contynewed"  in  their  possession  down 
to  the  time  of  Nicholas  W^adham.  the  Founder.  (Pole, 
quoted  in  Rogers"  Memorials  of  the  West,  England.) 
This  second  Sir  John,  the  Judge,  married  Joan,  daughter 
of  Worthesly  (pronounced  Risley),  and  his  death  oc- 
curred, according  to  Prince,  at  the  end  of  the  reign  of 
Henry  IV.  but  Rogers   (Ibid,  p.   156)   says  that  it  must

have  been  later;  while  Prince  asserts  that  "He  lieth  in- 
terred, most  probably  in  the  aisle  belonging  to  the  family 
at  Branscombe,"  but  Rogers  remarks  that  this  is  con- 
jecturi.',  since  there  is  no  aisle  to  the  church  at  Brans- 
combe. Hut  he  adds  that  the  north  transept  may  have 
been  his  Inirial  place,  where  the  monument  to  the  Found- 
er's mother  was  first  erected. 

Sir  John,  the  second,  left  two  sons,  William  and  Thom- 
as, the  latter  of  Redworthy  in  Ashreigny.  Sir  William, 
Sheriff  of  Devon,  married  Margaret,  daughter  of  Wil- 
liam Cheselden.  His  heir  was  John,  who  became  Sir 
John,  third,  who  married  Elizabeth,  one  of  the  four 
daughters  of  Stephen  Popham,  the  representative  of  an 
ancient  Hampshire  family  as  well  as  of  Merefield,  in 
llton  near  Ilminster.  This  John  left  two  sons,  John  and 
Edward,  also  a  daughter,  Alice,  who  married  Nicholas 
Stukeley,  of  Affeton,  North  Devon.  This  latter  John 
also  became  Sir  John,  the  fourth  of  the  name  and  title, 
and  he  married  Elizabeth,  who  was  daughter  of  another 
Stukeley,  Hugh,  of  Affeton.  The  heir  of  this  fourth  Sir 
John  was  Nicholas,  and  another  son  was  William.  Nich- 
olas, like  his  ancestors,  was  knighted.  He  married  first, 
Joan,  daughter  of  Robert  Hill,  of  Halsway,  and  his  heir 
was  another  John.  Nicholas  and  Joan  had  also  other 
children :  Andrew ;  Giles,  who  married  Agnes,  daugh- 
ter of  Clauson  of  Barton  ;  Mary,  who  married  Sir  Richard 
Chudleigh  of  Ashdon ;  and  Elizabeth,  who  married  first, 
Sir  Edward  Bampfield,  and  second,  Richard  Warr. 

Nicholas,  four  times  married,  took  for  his  second  wife, 
Margaret,  daughter  of  Sir  John  Seymour,  who  was  aunt 
of  Queen  Jane  Seymour,  third  wife  of  Henry  VHI  and 
sister  also  to  the  Protector,  Edward,  Duke  of  Somer- 
set. The  children  of  Nicholas  and  Margaret  Seymour 
were  Nicholas  and  a  daughter,  Jane.  Nicholas 
was  knighted  in  1494  "at  ye  creacion  of  Prince  Henry," 
then  two  years  old,  to  be  Duke  of  York.  In  1498  he, 
Sir  Nicholas,  was  made  Captain  of  the  Isle  of  Wight. 
He  was  also  Sheriff  of  Somerset  and  Dorset  about  1502. 

We  have  already  said  that  the  eldest  son  and  heir  of 
this  Sir  Nicholas  was  John.     He  was  known  as  John

Wadiiam  Family  in  England  5 

VVadham,  Esq.,  of  Edge  and  Merefield,  and  he  married 
Joan  Tregarthen,  daughter  of  an  old  Cornish  family  and 
widow  of  John  Kaleway.  The  Tregarthens  were  an 
ancient  family,  who  were  reported  to  have  "royal  blood 
in  their  veins."  Joan  had  had  by  her  first  husband  four- 
teen children,  and  after  her  marriage  to  John  Wadham  of 
Edge  she  was  blessed  with  six  other  children,  of  whom 
Nicholas,  the  eldest,  was  destined  to  become  the  most 
illustrious  of  the  line,  for  it  was  he  who  became  the 
Founder  of  Wadham  College  at  Oxford. 

Since  the  family  reached  its  climax  with  Nicholas,  the 
Founder,  and  since  also  he  had  no  issue,  we  may  here 
recall  the  genealogy  of  this  distinguished  family  from  the 
first  of  the  name  of  whom  we  have  knowledge.  To  this 
end  I  here  reproduce  a  genealogical  chart  from  T.  G. 
Jackson's  Architcctnyal  History  of  Wadham  College. 

In  the  will  of  John  of  Catherston  (see  chart)  he  men- 
lions  three  sons,  George.  John  and  Nicholas. 

In  the  Chapel  of  St.  John  the  Evangelist  in  Westmin- 
ster Abbey  may  be  seen  the  tomb  of  Mrs.  Anne  Kirton, 
the  granddaughter  of  George  Wadham.  who  died  in 
1603.  It  is  opposite  the  monument  of  Sir  John  Franklin 
and  next  to  that  of  Sarah,  Duchess  of  Somerset,  who  died 
in  1692.    The  inscription  reads: 

"Anne  Kirton 
T603"' 
"To  the  memory  of  the  virtuous  and  deare  beloved 
wife  Anne  Kirton,  daughter  of  Henry  Bodenheim 
in  the  town  of  Wiltes,  Esq.  By  Katherine,  Daught. 
of  George  Wadliam  of  Cathersto  in  the  Coun.  of 
Dor.  Esq.  Her  sorrowful  husband  James  Kirton  of 
Castell  Gary  in  the  Coun.  of  Som.  Gent,  in  regard  of 
her  virtues  and  his  love  erected  the  monument." 

At  the  top  of  this  slab  is  carved  in  the  marble  an  eye 
from  which  fall  carved  tear  drops  at  intervals  all  over 
the  inscription. 

Returning  now  to  the  monuments  in  the  churches  of 
Branscombe,  Ilminster  and  at  Whitechurch-Canonicorum 
we  find  in  the  latter  church,  remaining  to  the  present 


6  WaDHAMS    Gl^NEALOGY 

time,  Ljraven  on  a  plate  of  brass,  the  epitaph  of  a  John 
\\"adham  of  Catlierston,  who  died  in  1584.  The  inscrip- 
tion on  the  brass  reads  : 

"Here  lyeth  John  W^adhani  of  Catherston,  Esquyer, 

who  decessed  the  xiii  of  Marche  in  Anno  Dni  1584, 

who  was  dewring  his  life  time 

Captayne  of  the  Queens  Alai'ties  Castell  of  Sondesfote 

besides  \^^eymouth  in  the  Countye  of  Dorsett, 

and  also  Recorder  of  Lyme-Regis ; 

Whos  soule  Grod  rest  in  pese."' 

It  is  a  monument  of  late  Gothic  and  the  arms  and 
shields  have  been  torn  away. 

In  the  same  church  is  also  a  monument  to  Master 
Hitchings,  William  by  name,  whose  daughter  Dorothy 
was  married  to  George  Wadham.  This  monument  is  thus 
described  by  Rogers : 

"It  is  at  the  east  end  of  the  north  aisle  of  this  spacious 
church,  and  consists  of  a  large  raised  tomb,  with  blank 
shields  below,  and  above  a  cunningly-carved  reredos  of 
slate,  containing  at  the  top  kneeling  effigies  of  himself  in 
half-armour  and  his  wife  with  cap  and  ruff,  and  below, 
what  is  evidently  intended  to  represent  his  only  daugh- 
ter, Dorothy,  wife  of  George  Wadham,  also  kneeling, 
with  her  ten  children,  five  sons  and  five  daughters,  also 
kneeling  behind  her."  Rogers  adds  that  George  Wad- 
ham's  grave  stone  (he  died  7  Sept.,  1606)  is  now  in  the 
floor  immediately  in  front  of  this  monument,  having  been 
moved  up  to  its  present  position  from  further  down  the 
aisle  when  the  church  was  restored  a  few  years  since. 

In  the  old  church  at  Branscombe  is  found  the  monu- 
ment to  Joan,  mother  of  Nicholas,  the  Founder  of  Wad- 
ham College.  It  is  in  the  north  transept,  which  was  not 
its  original  place,  for  about  1830  it  was  removed  from 
under  the  window  of  the  south  transept  where  Joan  was 
probably  interred.  Quoting  again  from  Rogers'  Memo- 
rials of  the  West : 

"The  memorial  consists  of  a  pediment  ( in  the  center  of 
which  is  the  rose  of  Wadham),  supported  on  a  base  rus-

ticated  at  the  sides.  On  its  face  in  alto-relievo,  are — first, 
two  male  figures,  kneeling  on  cushions,  facing  each  other, 
with  their  hands  joined  in  prayer,  and  between  them  is  a

in  complete  armour,  with  sword  and  ruff.  Behind  each 
of  these  j::^entlcmfn  is  the  much  smaller  figure  of  a  lady, 
both  exactly  alike  and  evidently  meant  for  the  same  per- 
son. At  the  rear  of  the  lady,  on  the  left,  are  fourteen  little 
figures,  five  boys  and  nine  girls — her  children  by  her  first 
husband :  and.  again,  behind  her  on  the  right,  are  six 
children,  her  issue  by  her  second  spouse,  four  boys  and 
two  girls.  Below  these  figures  is  a  black  panel,  now  de- 
nuded of  its  original  inscription ;  only  a  trace  of  a  gilt  let- 
ter or  two  remains."     Prince  records  a  copy  of  it : 

'"Here  lieth  entombed  the  body  of  a  virtuous 
and  antient  gentlewoman  descended  of  the  an- 
tient  house  of  the  Plantagenets,  sometime  of 
Cornwall,  namely,  Joan,  one  of  the  daughters 
and  heirs  unto  John  Tregarthin,  in  the  Coun- 
ty of  Cornwall,  Esq.  She  was  first  married  unto 
John  Kelleway,  Esq.,  who  had  by  her  much 
issue ;  after  his  death  she  was  married  to  John 
Wadham  of  Aleryfield,  in  the  County  of  Som- 
erset, Esq.,  and  by  him  had  (six)  children. 
She  lived  a  virtuous  and  godly  life,  and  died 

in  an  honorable  age,   Sept. : in  the  year  of 

Christ,  1 58 1." 
But  at  llminster  we  find,  perhaps,  the  earliest  memo- 
rials of  this  family,  and  doubtless  the  beautiful  north 
transept  of  this  fine  old  structure,  one  of  the  best  of  the 
older  examples  of  the  Perpendicular,  was  erected  by  the 
Wadhams.  The  structure  dates  from  the  middle  of  the 
fifteenth  centur\-. 

I'he  following  is  extracted  from  a  letter  written  quite 
recently  by  one  who  had  just  visited  the  church  (Mrs. 
Ladd,  the  daughter  of  the  compiler)  : 

"The  brasses  we  went  to  see  are  in  the  'Wadham  Chan- 
try,' a  small  chapel  back  of  the  organ,  which  is  at  the 
east  side  of  the  choir.  There  are  two  tombs  there, 
that  of  Nicholas  and  Dorothy,  and  a  much  older 
one  of  Sir  William  Wadham.  The  brasses,  about  four 
feet  long,  the  figures  of  a  man  and  woman,  are  very  fine 
and  are  set  into  a  stone  slab  which  forms  the  cover  of  the 
tomb.     This  tomb  of  Sir  William  and  his  mother  has  a

suggestion  of  two  beautiful  arches  in  the  so-called 
decorated  style  over  their  heads  in  brass  and  the  decora- 
tions on  the  body  of  the  tomb  are  quite  elaborate,  probably 
from  stones  taken  from  the  tower  of  the  church,  set  in 
when  both  tower  and  tomb  were  restored." 

This  brings  us,  last  of  all,  to  the  marble  and  alabaster 
altar-tomb  of  the  Founder  and  Foundress  of  Wadham 
College.  On  this,  too,  is  the  broad,  massive  table  of 
marble  with  the  brasses  bearing  the  effigies  of  Nicholas 
and  Dorothy  inlet.  The  inscriptions  are  too  lengthy  for 
our  use  here.  They  recount  the  virtues  and  the  achieve- 
ments of  the  illustrious  pair  whom  they  commemorate. 

We  may  well  conclude  this  sketch  of  the  Wadham  fam- 
ily by  a  brief  notice  of  the  life  and  work  of  the  worthies 
who  are  better  commemorated  by  the  character  of  their 
deeds  than  by  their  pretentious  monument. 

Nicholas  Wadham  was  born  in  1532;  he  was  educated 
in  Oxford  either  at  Corpus  Christi  or  at  Christ  Church 
College.  "At  the  age  of  twenty-three  he  married  Dorothy 
Petre.  She  was  two  years  younger  than  her  husband, 
born  in  1534,  the  daughter  of  Sir  William  Petre  of  Writ- 
tie  in  Essex,  near  which  much  of  the  College  property 
now  lies.  *  "  *  The  young  couple  were  wealthy  and 
lived  their  lives  in  state  at  Merri field,  where  they  kept 
an  open  house,  'an  inn  at  all  times  for  their  friends,  and 
a  court  at  Christmas.'  Yet,  owing  probabl}-  to  the  man- 
agement of  Dorothy,  a  notable  and  prudent  wife,  they 
saved  money,  and  the  childless  pair  determined  to  devote 
their  wealth  to  'the  purposes  of  religion,  learning,  and 
education.'  "  ( The  Life  and  Times  of  John  Wilkius,  by 
P.  A.  Henderson,  Warden  of  Wadham  College,  Oxford, 
1910.)  This  led  to  the  founding  of  the  college  at  Ox- 
ford which,  bears  their  name.  Only  the  moat  and  some 
portions  of  a  wall  of  massive  masonry  mark  the  place 
where  Merrifield  once  stood. 

Nicholas  Wadham  was  a  squire  "of  good  estate  and  of 
high  degree."  That  he  was  interested  in  the  welfare  of 
liis  fellows  is  shown  b\-  the  fact  that  he  established,  at 
Ilton,  an  almshouse,  endowing"  it  with  "a  piece  of  land  or 
p'cle  of  land  contayning  by  cstimac'on  fower  acres,  called 


WAHIIAM     cnTJ.RC  K.     i  ).\  K«  )  KI ).     KX<  i  1-A  XD

or  known  of  Preihayes."  In  the  houses  on  this  land  his 
executors  were  to  permit  not  less  than  "eig'ht  poore  peo- 
ple" to  dwell  and  an  annuity  was  provided  sufficient  to 
support  the  little  colony. 

Nicholas  had  arranged  for  the  building  of  the  col- 
lege at  Oxford,  but  he  did  not  live  to  carry  out  this  not- 
able undertaking,  his  death  occurring  in  October,  1609, 
at  the  age  of  seventy-seven.  He  was  buried  in  "Myne 
He  at  Ilminster  where  myne  ancestors  lye  interred."  The 
task  of  completing  the  work  was  wisely  committed  to  his 
excellent  and  very  able  helpmete,  Lady  Dorothy,  who  was 
philanthropically  inclined  and  who  continued  loyal  to  the 
wishes  and  plans  of  her  husband  after  his  death.  She 
purchased  from  the  citizens  of  Oxford  the  site  of  the 
ancient  Priory  of  the  Augustine  Friars,  which  was  found- 
ed in  1268,  and  suppressed  in  1540,  and  proceeded  to 
erect  upon  it  the  buildings  which  still  stand  there,  and 
"which  form  perhaps  the  most  uniform  and  perfect  speci- 
men of  collegiate  architecture  in  the  University."  (The 
Registers  of  Wadham  College,  by  Rev.  Robert  Barlow 
Gardiner,  London,  1889.)  Wadham  college  enjoys  the 
honor  of  being  the  cradle  of  the  Royal  Society. 

Much  might  here  be  said  concerning  the  character  and 
energy  of  Dorothy  Wadham  did  space  permit,  but  it  is 
only  necessary  to  say  that  her  letters,  which  have  been 
preserved  and  published,  show  her  to  have  been  a  woman 
of  unusual  strength  of  purpose,  clearness  of  mental  vision 
and  of  fine  accomplishments.  These  published  letters 
were  written  from  Edge  and  from  Merri field  during  the 
years  1613  to  1618.  It  was  in  the  latter  year  that  she  died 
at  the  age  of  eighty-four. 

For  a  further  description  or  history  of  the  splendid 
foundation  laid  by  this  generous  and  far-sighted  pair, 
I  must  refer  my  readers  to  the  many  excellent  histories 
of  the  colleges  of  the  University  of  Oxford. 

The  compiler  of  this  work  has  made  diligent  and  per- 
sistent efforts  to  trace  a  connection  between  the  pioneer, 
John  Wadham  of  Wethersfield,  and  the  ancient  family 
of  Wadham  in  England.  Thus  far  these  efforts  have 
proved   unsuccessful.      Genealogical    charts    claiming   to

trace  the  lineage  of  John  Wadham,  the  settler,  back  to 
the  first  Sir  John  Wadham  have  been  drawn  up,  but  a 
careful  search  of  the  available  records,  both  in  England 
and  America,  made  under  the  author's  direction,  has 
failed  to  establish  the  connection.  We  only  know  that 
John  Wadham,  the  settler  in  Connecticut,  was  a  colonist 
from  England  and  is  said  to  have  come  from  Somerset. 
We  do  not  know  in  what  ship  he  came,  in  what  company, 
nor  from  what  port  he  sailed.  It  is  sufficient  to  say  that 
the  first  settler  in  America  by  the  name  of  Wadham,  and 
from  whom  nearly  all  the  people  of  the  name  in  America 
are  descended,  was  a  man  of  enterprise,  of  independence 
of  character,  and  possessed  of  those  sterling  qualities  of 
which  pioneers,  and  especially  pioneers  who  are  such  from 
religious  convictions,  are  made. 

No  more  honorable  descent  can  be  desired  by  a  true 
American  than  that  from  one  of  those  moral  heroes  who 
were  willing  to  face  the  hardships  and  dangers  of  a  new 
life  in  a  new  world  for  the  sake  of  liberty  to  worship  God 
according  to  the  dictates  of  their  own  consciences.  That 
John  Wadham,  the  pioneer  settler,  was  one  of  those 
lieroes  v>e  have  abundant  evidence.

FIRST  GENERATION 


FIRST  GENERATION 

The  name  Wadham  appears  both  in  England  and  in 
this  country  with  the  spelUng  Waddom,  Wadom,  Wad- 
dam,  Wadam.  The  "s"  seems  to  have  been  added  to  the 
name  about  the  beginning  of  the  fourth  generation  in 
America,  but  it  has  not  been  retained  by  all  the  family, 
several  of  whom  use  the  form  Wadham.  One  branch 
spells  the  name  Wadams.  Even  those  who  have  more 
recently  come  from  England  use  both  spellings. 

I  John  Wadham  came  from  Somersetshire,  England, 
and  settled  in  Wethersfield,  Connecticut,  between  the 
years  1645  ^"d  1650. 

It  is  said,  but  on  what  authority  it  is  not  known,  that, 
after  a  short  residence  in  this  country,  he  returned  to 
England,  and  that  while  there  he  married.  His  wife  is 
said  to  have  been  of  French  descent.  Her  baptismal 
name  was  Susannah,  but  of  her  family  name  no  trace  has, 
up  to  the  present  time,  been  found.  (Astor  Library, 
Sailing  Lists,  etc.) 

From  the  early  records  of  Wethersfield,  Connecticut, 
we  learn  that  the  home  lot  of  John  Wadham  (three 
acres),  granted  him  by  the  town,  was  recorded  February 
25,  1656.  Another  three  acres  was  granted  him  in  1660, 
both  of  these  parcels  being  in  the  center  of  the  town,  and 
in  1672  eighty  acres  was  granted  him  on  the  east  side  of 
the  river  at  Nayaug,  afterwards  called  Glastonbury,  but 
he  probably  never  lived  east  of  the  river.  He  also  pur- 
chased land  of  Mr.  John  Holister  in  1658,  and,  later  on, 
of  others.  At  the  General  Court  held  May  20,  1658,  at 
Hartford,  '"John  Wadom,"  with  others,  was  made  free 
before  the  Court.  At  the  County  Court  on  March  5, 
1667-8,  he  was  appointed  Constable  for  Wethersfield,  and 
at  the  General  Court  on  April  i,  1674,  he  was  freed  from 
training,   watching  and   warding.     The  location  of  his 

17 


1 8  Wadhams  Genealogy 

house  in  Wethersfield  is  thus  described  by  Stiles  in  his 
History  of  Wethersfield,  1904: 

"Tando's  brook,  now  called,  was  first  called  Beaver's 
brook,  then  Waddam's  brook.  *  *  -•=  The  whole 
w^ater  course  was  at  first  called  Beaver  brook ;  the  sec- 
tion flowing  through  "Egypt"  was  called  Waddam's 
brook  from  John  Waddam  (Wadham)  who,  in  1669  and 
later,  obtained  land  on  both  sides  of  the  stream  and  lived 
on  the  corner  where  the  home  lately  occupied  by  Caroline 
Larkins  (the  old  Robbins  house)  now  stands,  a  little 
northwest  of  the  present  Larkins  bridge." 

John  Wadham  died  December  19,  1676,  and  in  his 
will,  proven  at  Wethersfield,  January  19,  1677,  the  name 
of  his  wiie  is  not  mentioned.    The  will  is  as  follows : 

"John  Wadham,  senr.  did  declare  upon  his  death  bed 
unto  his  wife  and  son,  John  Wadham,  as  his  last  will 
and  testament,  that  his  estate  being  small  he  did  leave  it 
all  with  his  wife  and  his  son  John,  desiring  her  to  keep 
the  stuff  in  her  own  hands  during  her  life  time  and  after 
decease  there  should  be  nothing  to  hinder  his  ---•n  the 
whole  of  it,  but  at  present  and  during  her  life  she  may 
make  him  a  sharer  with  her  if  she  please.  Witnesses,

March  i,  1677.  Devised  his  property  (Invent.  £239-05-00) 
to  his  wife  Susannah  (said  to  have  been  of  French  de- 
scent) during  her  life,  then  to  their  son  John;  and  the 
Court  therefore  appointed  them  administrators."  (Stiles

son of  Lieutenant  Thomas  Hurlbut,  who  was  one  of  the 
garrison  at  the  Fort  in  Saybrook,  Conn.,  under  the  com- 
mand of  Lion  Gardiner  during  the  Pequot  War.  About 
1776  Noah  Wadham  married  his  third  wife,  Hannah  Ben- 
ham,  daughter  of  Joseph  and  Hope  (Cook)  Benham,  and 
the  widow  of  Samuel  Beach  of  Goshen,  Conn.  She  died 
in  Goshen  at  the  age  of  ninety,  having  made  her  home 
with  Mr.  Wadham's  youngest  son,  Seth,  after  her  hus- 
band's death. 

About  1736  Noah  Wadham  removed  from  Wethers- 
field  to  Middletown,  Conn.,  and  in  1741  he  removed  from 
there  to  Goshen,  Conn.,  being  the  first  of  the  Wadham 
family  to  settle  there,  where  for  more  than  forty  years 
he  was  closely  identified  with  the  interests  of  the  town. 
He  and  his  wife,  Anne,  were  both  members  of  the  Con- 
gregational Church  in  Goshen.  His  second  wife,  Anne 
(Hurlbut)  Wadham,  was  the  mother  of  all  his  children 
( Wethersfield  Records  and  Stiles'  Historv  of  Wethers- 
field). 

Notice  regarding  property  of  David  Sage,  dec'd.,  that 
had  been  distributed  to  his  daus.,  Mary,  wife  of  Thomas 
Stedman,  and  Elizabeth,  late  wife  of  Noah  Waddams. 
Dated  Dec.  21,  1719,  at  Wethersfield;  land  on  the  east 
side  of  the  Great  River  in  Middletown  (Middletown, 
Conn.,  Deeds,  Vol.  3,  p.  58). 

Noah  Waddams  bought  land  from  Thomas  Lay  of 
Middletown,  Mar.  4,  1736-37,  60  acres,  on  west  side  of 
Connecticut  River  in  Middletown  (Ibid,  Vol.  8,  p.  34). 

Noah  Waddams  bought  land  of  William  Tryon  of 
Middletown,  Sept.  25,  1737,  7  acres,  similar  location 
(Ibid,  p.  163). 

Noah  Waddams  of  ^Middletown,  sold  same  land  to  Wil- 
liam Tryon,  June  29,  1739  (Ibid,  p.  336). 


Third  Generation  35 

On  leaving  Micldletown,  Noah  Wadham  first  located, 
in  1741,  just  above  the  village  of  Litchfield,  but,  as  the 
Indians  were  very  troublesome  there,  after  a  short  resi- 
dence he  removed  about  four  miles  further  north  and 
settled  in  what  is  now  called  South  End  Goshen.  These 
two  towns  at  that  time  belonged  to  the  county  of  Hart- 
ford. As  their  po])ulation  increased  a  division  of  the 
county  was  talked  of.  There  was  much  discussion  as  to 
which  village  should  be  the  shire  town.  "Cornwall  and 
Canaan  made  their  claims  and  had  their  advocates,  but 
the  chief  contest  was  between  Litchfield  and  Goshen.  The 
latter  town  was  supposed  to  occupy  the  geographical 
center  and  many  persons  had  settled  there  in  expectation 
that  that  would  become  the  fixed  seat  of  justice ;  among 
others  Oliver  Walcott,  afterwards  Governor  of  the  State. 
But  at  the  October  session  of  the  General  Court  in  1751, 
the  new  county  was  established  under  the  name  of  Litch- 
field County,  with  Litchfield  as  the  County  town." 

Litchfield  County  extended  far  to  the  west,  and  even 
included  the  site  of  the  present  city  of  Wilkesbarre,  Penn- 
sylvania, which  country  was  then  called  Westmoreland  or 
Wyoming.  For  nine  years  the  Connecticut  colony  existed 
there,  from  1774  to  1782  (From  Centennial  Address  by 
Chief  Justice  Church.  1851,  pp.  10.  16,  17). 

Joseph  De  Mink,  a  freeman  from  the  Cape'  V^erd  Is- 
lands, visiting  Buena  Vista  in  1755,  with  the  consent  of 
his  father,  was,  under  false  pretences,  brought  to  Wall- 
ingford  and  sold  by  David  Cook  as  a  slave  to  Noah  Wad- 
hams  for  £52,  I  OS.  Mr.  Wadhams  became  satisfied  that 
he  was  a  freeman  and  took  action  against  Cook,  with  the 
result  that  the  negro  was  declared  by  the  General  As- 
sembly to  be  a  free  subject  of  the  King  of  Portugal,  and 
was  ordered  to  be  returned  to  his  home.

12  Caleb*  Wadhams,  son  of  John  and  Charity 
(t)ickinson)  Wadham,  born  in  Wethersfield,  Conn.,  20 
January,  1720;  died  22  July,  1765,  in  Pittsfield,  Mass.; 
the  name  of  his  wife  is  not  known,  but  she  died  16  Sep- 
tember, 1785,  in  Pittsfield. 

Caleb  Wadhams  was  about  five  years  old  when  his 
father,  John  Wadham,  removed  from  Wethersfield  to 
Glastonbury,  Conn.  In  1742  he  was  there  made  executor 
of  his  father's  estate,  receiving,  according  to  the  will, 
"a  double  portion  of  the  estate."  Deeds  of  Caleb  Wad- 
hams, executed  between  1749  and  1763,  are  found  in 
Glastonbury,  Conn.  In  1745  he,  with  inhabitants  of 
Hebron,  Colchester  and  a  part  of  Glastonbury,  signed  a 
petition  to  be  set  off  as  a  separate  church.  With  his 
brothers,  John  and  Enos,  he  was  one  of  the  signers  of  a 
petition  to  form  a  militia  company  in  Marlborough,  Hart- 
ford County,  in  1748.  Caleb  Wadhams,  of  Glastonbury, 
Conn.,  bought  lands  in  Pittsfield,  Mass.,  24  June,  1759. 
He  and  his  wife  were  admitted  to  the  church  there  in 
March,  1765.  From  Smith's  History  of  Pittsfield,  Mass., 
we  learn  that  the  first  sale  of  pews  in  a  Pittsfield  meet- 


42  Wadha.ms  Genealogy 

ing  house  took  place  on  Monday,  February  4,  1765,  by 
auction  to  the  highest  bidder.  Pew  No.  i  sold  to  David 
Bush  and  Company  for  i  10-5-0.  Pew  No.  2,  Caleb  Wad- 
hams  and  Company,  £4-15-0.  From  the  same  source  we 
learn  that  of  the  four  school  houses  ordered  built  in  1764, 
Caleb  Wadhams  and  David  Noble  engaged  to  build  the 
Western  School  House.  In  1766  administration  on  his 
estate  was  granted  to  John  Wadhams,  his  brother,  and 
two  others.  The  amount  of  his  estate  in  Glastonbury,  ac- 
cording to  the  inventory,  was  £386-12-6.  From  the  old 
Probate  Records  in  Hartford.  Conn.,  we  learn  that  in 
September,  1780,  Abraham  Wadhams,  minor  child  of 
Caleb,  chose  Levi  Dunham  as  his  guardian.  Dunham  as- 
sumed the  office  with  Abraham  Forbes  as  surety.  Levi 
Dunham  of  Glastonbury,  in  right  of  his  wife  Anne,  one 
of  the  heirs  of  Caleb  Wadhams,  moved  for  the  distribu- 
tion of  the  estate  lying  in  Glastonbury,  Conn.  The  dis- 
tributors, Jonathan  Wells,  Israel  Foote  and  Abraham 
Skinner,  were  appointed  by  the  Court  to  distribute  the  es- 
tate and  to  assist  Levi  Dunham  as  guardian  to  Abraham 
Wadhams  and  to  make  partition  with  David  Blish,  who 
had  an  interest  in  common  and  undivided  in  part  of  the 
land  belonging  to  the  heirs.  Blish  sold  his  right  to  Na- 
than Dickenson.  Estate  distributed  in  December,  1780,. 
To  Caleb  Wadhams,  eldest  son,  his  double  portion  and 
one-fifth  part  of  a  deceased  sister's  right,  thirty-five  acres 
of  land  at  the  west  end  of  the  farm.  To  the  other  chil- 
dren, Abraham,  Hannah,  Mary  and  Anne,  to  each  twenty- 
nine  acres  of  land  (situation  and  boundaries  described) 
and  one-seventh  and  one-fifth  of  one-seventh  of  the  house 
and  barn  with  the  encumbrance  of  the  widow's  right  and 
privilege.

13  John*  Wadhams,  son  of  John  and  Charity  (Dick- 
inson) Wadham,  was  born  at  Glastonbury,  Conn.,  25 
April,  1726,  and  died  at  Canaan,  now  Lebanon  Springs, 
Columbia  County,  N.  Y.,  5  August,  1812.  He  married  3 
November,  1757,  Eunice  Porter  (Early  Connecticut  Mar- 
riages). She  died  10  August,  1803,  aged  65  years  (tomb- 
stone record),  and  both  lie  buried  in  the  old  graveyard 
at  Lebanon  Springs. 

From  1757  to  1761  John  Wadhams  was  a  resident  of 
Glastonbury,  his  name  occurring  on  the  records  there. 
With  his  brothers,  Caleb  and  Enos,  he  signed  a  petition  to 
form  a  military  company  in  Marlborough,  Hartford 
County,  Conn.  We  next  find  him  in  Pittsfield,  Mass., 
where,  in  1762,  he  was  a  petitioner  for  a  town  meeting, 
and,  in  March,  1765,  was  admitted  as  a  member  of  the 
chiu-ch  at  Pittsfield,  his  wife  becoming  a  member  at 
the  same  time  (Stiles"  History  of  Ancient  Wethersfield, 
Conn.,  also  Pittsfield  Church  Records).  On  29  March, 
1769,  John  Wadhams  of  New  Lebanon,  County  of  Berk- 
shire, Province  of  Massachusetts  Bay,  as  administrator  of 
the  estate  of  Caleb  Wadhams,  late  of  Glastonbury,  Conn., 
deceased,  in  consideration  of  £56-2-7,  convened  land  in 
Glastonbury  (Blish  Genealogy,  p.  69). 

From  the  "History  of  Columbia  County,  N.  Y.,  at  the 
End  of  the  Century"  we  learn  that  "John  Wadhams  was 
the  first  to  settle  in  the  northeastern  part  and  was  one 
of  the  first  in  the  town  (New  Lebanon).  He  was  led 
into  the  locality  in  the  summer  of  1762,  while  hunting  for 
his  cattle,  which  had  strayed  from  his  home  in  Berkshire, 
Mass.  He  was  so  pleased  with  the  appearance  of  the 
new  country  that  he  made  it  his  home  in  1764,  settling  on 
what  is  now  the  Elijah  Bagg  place.  This  land,  300  acres, 
was  afterwards  granted  to  Ephraim  Keyes,  from  whom 
Wadhams  purchased  it,  he  having  acknowledged  the 
grant.  It  is  said  that  when  the  Massachusetts  boundary 
Avas   adjusted,   Wadhams    found   his   house   a   few   rods 


44  Wadhams  Genealogy 

across  the  line  in  that  State.  Vowing  that  he  would  not 
live  outside  New  York,  he  summoned  his  neighbors  to 
his  aid  and  removed  his  home  into  the  Empire  State." 

John  Wadhams  has  a  very  creditable  military  record, 
extending  over  the  greater  part  of  his  life.  In  1755,  on 
September  2,  he  enlisted  in  Captain  Joseph  Savage's 
Company,  French  and  Indian  War,  and  was  discharged 
the  following  6  December  (Connecticut  Hist.  Soc.  Coll., 
Vol.  9,  p.  82).  In  1756  he  was  on  the  muster  roll  of  the 
Third  Company,  Fourth  Regt.,  Major  Hinman's  Com- 
pany (Ibid,  p.  147).  Later  on  we  find  him  in  the  Revo- 
lution. "John  Waddams,  Private,  Capt.  Samuel  Clark's 
Co.,  Col.  Powel's  (Berkshire  County)  Regt.;  enlisted 
July  22,  1779;  discharged  Aug.  26,  1779;  service  i  mo., 
12  days,  at  New  Haven,  Conn.,  including  7  days  (131 
miles)  travel  home.  Roll  sworn  to  at  Lanesborough'' 
(Mass.  Soldiers  and  Sailors  in  the  Revolution,  Vol.  16, 
p.  366).  "John  Waddams,  Private,  Capt.  Clark's  Co.,  in 
a  detachment  from  Col.  Barnabas  Sears'  Regt. ;  enlisted 
July  18,  1781 ;  discharged  Nov.  2,  1781 ;  service  3  mos., 
21  days,  'up  the  Mohawk  River,'  including  5  days  (100 
miles)  travel  home;  regiment  raised  for  3  months.  Roll 
sworn  to  in  Berkshire  Co."     (Ibid,  Vol.  17,  p.  702). 

The  will  of  John  Waddams  was  made  July  9,  1804, 
and  was  proved  August  19,  1812,  before  Martin  Van 
Buren,  then  surrogate  of  Columbia  County,  but  later 
President  of  the  United  States.  It  was  witnessed  by 
"Isaiah  Patterson,  David  W.  Patterson,  Stephen  Bailey." 
The  following  extracts  are  taken  from  it.     "In  the  name

50  Wadhams  Genealogy 

20  Reverend  Noah*  Wadhams,  son  of  Noah  and 
Anne  (Hurlbut)  Wadham,  born  at  Wethers  field.  Conn., 
1/  May,  1726;  died  22  May,  1806,  at  Plymouth.  Pa.; 
married  ist,  by  Rev.  Samuel  Hopkins,  8  November,  1758, 
Elizabeth  IngersoU,  daughter  of  Moses^  (Thomas,- 
John^)  and  Catherine  ( )  IngersoU  (Yale  Biog- 
raphies, Dexter)  of  Great  Barrington,  Mass.  She  was 
born  9  October,  1729,  and  died  11  February,  1793.  Moses 
IngersoU,  her  father,  was  for  many  years  an  inn-keeper 
and  the  Parish  Treasurer  of  Great  Barrington.  Xoah 
Wadhams  married  his  second  wife,  Dianna  Ross,  after 
he  removed  to  Pennsylvania.  She  was  daughter  of  Jere- 
miah Ross  and  sister  of  General  William  S.  Ross  of 
Wilkesbarre.     She  died  in  1804,  having  had  no  children. 

Noah  Wadhams  graduated  with  the  degree  of  A.  B. 
from  the  College  of  New  Jersey  before  it  was  removed 
from  Newark,  N.  J.,  to  Princeton,  N.  J.,  and  his  diploma, 
dated  25  September,  1754,  bears  the  name  of  Rev.  x\aron 
Burr,  as  President  of  the  College.  He  studied  theology 
at  Yale  College,  and  in  1757  was  installed  as  the  first 
pastor  of  the  New  Preston  Society  (Congregational)  in 
the  towns  of  New  Milford  and  Washington,  Conn.,  where 
he  remained  for  eleven  years.  In  1768  he  was  chosen, 
as  their  pastor,  to  go  with  a  colony  from  Connecticut 
into  the  wilderness  of  Pennsylvania,  where  they  settled  in 
the  Wyoming  V^alley.  Noah  Wadhams  returned  to  Con- 
necticut on  several  different  occasions,  as  he  had  left  his 
wife  and  children  at  their  home  in  Litchfield.  The  year 
following  the  Wyoming  Massacre  (1778),  his  wife  hav- 
ing died,  he  took  some  of  his  children  to  his  new  home  at 
Plymouth,  Pa.  She,  his  wife,  probably  never  went  to 
Pennsylvania. 

Mrs.  Elijah  Wadhams  of  Wilkesbarre,  Pa.,  writes  of 
the  Rev.  Noah  Wadhams :  "Owing,  probably,  to  the 
preaching  of  Wesley  and  Whitfield,  his  theological  views 
underwent  a  change,  as  did,  from  the  same  cause,  those 
of  his  brother-in-law.  Rev.  Samuel  Hopkins,  the  hero 
of  Mrs.  Harriet  Beecher  Stowe's  book — A  Minister's 
Wooing — the  two  men  having  married  sisters,  Elizabeth 
and  Joanna  IngersoU."     Several  years  before  his  death

he  became  a  noted  itinerant  preacher  in  the  Methodist 
church,  making  long  journeys  on  horseback  through  that 
wilderness  country.

21  Jonathan*  Wadhams,  son  of  Noah  and  Anne

tober, 1730;  died  12  April,  1812,  in  Goshen,  Conn.;  mar- 
ried 8  August,  1754,  Judith  Howe,  eldest  daughter  of 
Jeremiah^  (Jeremiah,-  Jeremiah^)  and  Elizabeth  (Gay- 
lord)  Howe.  She  was  born  19  December,  1730,  in  Wal- 
.  lingford,  Conn.,  and  died  15  July,  1813,  in  Goshen,  Conn. 
They  lived  at  South  End,  Goshen.  Both  were  members 
of  the  Congregational  Church  in  Goshen  and  are  buried 
there  in  the  old  Middle  Street  graveyard. 

Jonathan  Waddams  served  17  da}s  in  Capt.  Solomon 
Buels'  Company  for  the  relief  of  Fort  William  Henry  in 
Aug.,  1757,  French  and  Indian  War  (Conn.  Hist.  Soc. 
Collections,  Vol.  9,  p.  224).  During  the  Revolutionary 
War  Jonathan  Wadhams  went,  with  many  others  from 
Goshen,  to  defend  the  town  of  Danbury,  Conn.,  when  the 
British  raided  and  burned  the  place  27  April,  1777.  The 
following  account  of  the  Danbury  Raid  is  taken  from 
Hibbard's  "History  of  Goshen,  Conn.,"  published  1897,  p. 
140: 

"As  the  British  had  done  their  damage  and  marched 
away  before  the  Goshen  defenders  arrived,  the  men  felt 
themselves  at  liberty  to  plunder  some  of  the  houses  which 
remained,  it  being  understood  that  the  homes  not  burned 
belonged  to  the  tories.  Fisk  Beach  filled  his  saddle  bags 
with  heads  of  hatchelled  flax ;  James  Thompson  brought 
home  some  articles  of  wearing  apparel ;  Jonathan  Wad- 
hams had  in  his  saddle  bags  a  pair  of  flat  irons.     It  is

said,  however,  that  his  wife  and  daughters  strenuously 
refused  to  use  them  on  the  ground  that  the  receiver  is 
as  bad  as  the  thief.  OHver  Norton,  when  he  got  home, 
found  in  his  pocket  an  old  milk  cup  with  the  handle 
broken  off.  Josiah  Royce  and  Isaac  Pratt  each  brought 
something.  This  loading  back  from  Danbury  was  the 
occasion  of  much  sport  and  joking  among  the  people  after 
their  return.  There  was  a  feeling  prevailing  among  the 
.young  people  that  the  tories  might  be  ill  treated  with  im- 
punity, also  their  families.  This  was  not  unnatural,  as 
it  was  to  them  that  they  justly  ascribed  some  of  the 
heaviest  calamities  they  suffered." 

From  Hibbard's  "History  of  Goshen,"  p.  176,  is  also 
taken  the  following  account  of  the  Sabbath  Day  Houses : 

"Deacon  Moses  Lyman,  Jonathan  Buell,  Sr.,  Jeremiah 
Howe  and  Jonathan  Wadhams  joined  together  in  build- 
ing a  Sabbath  Day  House,  which  they  occupied  for  many 
years.  This  stood  southwest  of  the  present  meeting- 
house, on  the  west  side  of  the  road  as  it  then  was. 
-•.:  *  *  'pi^g  building  faced  the  east,  and  had  two 
rooms,  a  chimney,  built  of  stone,  in  the  middle,  and  a 
stable  for  horses  on  the  north  and  south  ends.  The  south 
room  was  occupied  by  Deacon  Lyman  and  Mr.  Buell ;  the 
north  room  by  Messrs.  Howe  and  Wadhams.  Three 
similar  houses  were  built  on  the  north  side  of  the  road, 
east  of  the  meeting-house.  They  were  owned  by  in- 
habitants living  on  East  street.  These  houses  were  used 
for  spending  the  time  of  the  intermission  between  the 
two  services  of  public  worship,  and,  as  there  were  no 
stoves  in  the  meeting-house,  the  fire  was  something  to  re- 
joice in  on  the  Goshen  hills  in  winter;  they  were  open 
to  others  besides  the  owners  and  their  families,  so  far  as 
convenient.  Sunday  dinners  were  served  there  and  in 
winter  many  of  the  women  came  in  to  fill  their  foot 
stoves,  before  the  two  or  three  hours  of  afternoon  wor- 
ship commenced."

25  SoLOMAN*  Wadhams,  son  of  Noah  and  Anne 
(Hurlbut)  Wadham,  born  24  June,  1740,  in  Middletown, 
Conn.;  died  21  December,  1821,  in  Goshen,  Conn.;  mar- 
ried in  1780  Abigail  (Beebe)  Allen,  widow  of  Captain 
Heman  Allen*  (Joseph,^  Samuel,-  Samuel^)  of  Salisbury, 
Conn.,  a  brother  of  General  Ethan  Allen.  She  was  prob- 
ably the  daughter  of  Peter  Beebe.  She  died  3  June,  1844, 
at  the  home  of  her  son  Beebe,  in  Goshen,  Conn.,  aged 
ninety-one  years. 

From  "Yale  Biographies  and  Annals,"  F.  B.  Dexter, 
we  learn  that  Soloman  Wadhams,  A.  M.,  graduated  from 
Yale  College  in  the  class  of  1762.  He  settled  in  Goshen, 
where  he  became  a  farmer  and  merchant.  "In  later  years 
he  was  largely  interested  in  new  lands  in  northwestern 
Vermont,  then  known  as  the  'New  Hampshire  Grants,' 
where  some  of  his  descendants  still  remain"  (Members 
of  the  Catlin  Family  in  Burlington,  \'t.).  He  was  as- 
sociated in  business  for  a  while  with  Capt.  Heman  Allen 
of  Salisbury,  Conn.,  who  died  in  1778  and  in  1780  he 
married  Capt.  Allen's  widow.  "Mr.  Wadhams  had  a 
large  pecuniar}-  interest  in  the  scheme  undertaken  by  his 
wife's  brother-in-law.  Colonel  Ira  Allen,  in  1796,  for  a 
purchase  of  arms  for  the  State  of  Vermont  from  the 
French  Government ;  and  the  subsequent  capture  of  the 
Oliz'e  Branch  by  a  British  cruiser  embarrassed  him  seri- 
ously, and  practically  put  an  end  to  his  active  interest  in 
public  affairs.  He  died  aged  eighty-one  and  one-half 
years.  Tradition  represents  him  as  a  very  worthy  man, 
of  more  than  ordinary  natural  abilities,  cool  and  deliber- 
ate in  whatever  he  undertook  and  of  sound  judgment" 
(Dexter's  Yale  Biographies  and  Annals,  Second  series, 

P-  773)- 

It  is  said  that  Soloman  Wadhams  and  Ira  Allen  built 

the  first  forge  at  Canaan,  Conn.,  and  made  cannon  there 

about  1 81 2  (MS.  of  E.  H.  Norton).

Fifth  Generation  65 

Stephen,''  Joseph,^  Joseph,-  John^)  and  Mary  (Slooper) 
Hand.  Samuel  Hand,  jr..  removed  in  1767  with  his  par- 
ents to  Hancock,  Mass.,  and  in  1787  to  New  Lebanon, 
N.  Y.,  where  he  settled  as  a  pioneer  farmer.  Samuel 
Hand,  Sr.,  served  in  the  French  wars  and  was  with 
General  Wolfe  at  the  taking  of  Quebec  in  1759.  While 
living  in  Hancock  he  was  a  member  of  the  Massachu- 
setts State  Legislature  for  thirteen  years  and  was  also 
Justice  of  the  Peace  there.  He  died  in  Lebanon  Springs 
24  May,  1829,  aged  ninety-three  years.  His  father,  Jo- 
seph Fland,  died  18  September,  1798,  aged  ninety-seven 
years  (See  History  of  Columbia  County,  N.  Y.,  published 
1878). 

The  first  record  of  the  family  of  Hand  in  America  is 
of  one  John  Fland,  a  native  and  land  owner  in  the  par- 
ishes of  Tunbridge  and  Ashford  in  the  County  of  Kent, 
England,  who  came  to  this  country  about  1640,  and  in 
March,  1644,  was  enrolled  in  the  third  ward  of  South- 
ampton, Long  Island,  N.  Y.,  he  being  one  of  the  nine 
original  patentees  or  grantees  of  East  Hampton.  He 
was  a  Delegate  in  1657  from  that  town  to  Hartford, 
Conn.,  for  the  purpose  of  bringing  East  Hampton 
under    the    government    of    Connecticut.      He    married 

Alice ,  who,  after  his  death,  which  occurred  about 

1660,  married  Captain  Codnor.  His  son  Joseph  is  said 
to  have  married  in  1662  Jane  Wright  of  Guilford,  Conn., 
where  he  settled  and  became  the  ancestor  of  the  New 
England  branch  of  the  Hand  family  (See  Hedges  History 
of  East  Hampton,  published  1897).

(See  Kulp's  Hist,  of  Wyoming  Co.,  Pa.).  A  member  of 
the  Pennsylvania  branch  of  the  Wadhams  family  wrote 
the  compiler  that  "an  epidemic  of  typhus  fever  prevailed 
in  Plymouth,  Pa.,  in  the  autumn  of  1846,  which  disease 
probably  carried  off  three  from  this  family."

(Howe)  Wadhams,  born  24  September,  1756,  in  Goshen, 
Conn.;  died  31  October,  1834,  in  Goshen;  married  15 
January,  1778,  in  Goshen,  Tryphena  Collins,  eldest  daugh- 
ter of  Cyprian^  (Rev.  Timothy,*  John,^  John,^  John^) 
and  Azuba  (Gibbs)  Collins.  She  was  born  21  August, 
1757,  in  Goshen  and  died  20  July,  1825,  in  Goshen.  Her 
father,  Cyprian  Collins,  was  spoken  of  as  a  frugal  and  an 
industrious  man  and  a  firm  patriot  in  the  Revolution. 
Hibbard,  in  his  history  of  Goshen,  says  that  when  troops 
were  leaving  Goshen,  early  in  1776,  to  join  Arnold  and 
Wooster  at  Quebec,  Cyprian  Collins  with  a  "three  cattle 
team"  and  a  sled  accompanied  them  nearly  to  Albany, 
conveying  their  baggage.  When  these  same  soldiers,  one 
of  whom  was  his  son  Ambrose  Collins,  were  later  sta- 
tioned at  Ticonderoga,  word  was  sent  to  Goshen  that  the 
baggage  of  the  soldiers  had  been  lost  and  Lieutenant 
Cyprian  Collins  went  to  them  carrying  clothing  and  neces- 
sary supplies. 

He  was  also  one  of  the  volunteer  soldiers  who  went 
from  Goshen  to  the  defense  of  the  people  of  Danbury, 
Conn,,  when  the  British  raided  and  burned  their  village 
on  the  27  April,  1777.  Another  detachment  of  soldiers 
from  Goshen,  in  the  latter  part  of  September,  1777,  under 
General  Wolcott,  joined  the  army  of  General  Gates  a  few 
weeks  before  the  battle  of  Saratoga,  and  Cyprian  Collins 
was  one  of  their  number.  They  were  present  at  the  sur- 
render of  Burgoyne. 

A  "Household  Company"  was  organized  in  Goshen, 
composed  of  officers  and  men  who  were  by  law  exempt 
from  military  duty.  Its  members  were  volunteers  who 
held  themselves  in  readiness  for  active  service  when  need- 
ed. Its  officers  were  Captain  Asaph  Hall,  Lieutenant 
Isaac  Pratt  and  Ensign  Cyprian  Collins. 

Extract  from  the  records  of  the  town  of  Goshen, 
Conn. : 


82  W'adiiams  Genealogy 

"At  a  town  meeting  held  April  i,  1777,  persuant  to  the 
directions  of  his  Hon.  the  Governor  and  Committee  of 
Safety,  Samuel  Kellogg  was  chosen  Moderator.  At  the 
same  meeting  Capt.  Asaph  Hall,  Stephen  Thompson,  Cy- 
prian Collins,  Abel  Phelps,  Jun.,  were  chosen  a  commit- 
tee to  procure  the  tents  and  other  necessaries  required  by 
law  to  be  provided  by  this  town  and  to  draw  money  out 
of  the  town  treasury  for  that  purpose — and  voted  that 
the  town  pay  said  committee  for  their  reasonable  cost  in 
procuring  the  same." 

In  1759  Cyprian  Collins  received  by  deed  from  his 
father  fifty  acres  of  land  in  Goshen,  Conn.,  situated  on 
the  west  side  of  East  Street;  he  purchased  four  acres 
more  on  the  west  side  of  East  Street  and,  in  1760,  built 
his  home  upon  it.  That  house  Vv'as  still  standing  in  1895 
and  formed  a  part  of  the  residence  of  Franklin  Burton. 

Rev.  Timothy  Collins,  the  grandfather  of  Tryphena 
Collins,  was  born  13  April,  1699,  in  Guilford.  Conn.; 
graduated  from  Yale  College  1718;  married  16  January, 
1723,  Elizabeth  Hyde,  daughter  of  Samuel  and  Elizabeth 
(Calkins)  Hyde  of  Lebanon,  Conn.  His  father  was 
John  Collins,  and  his  mother  was  Ann  Leete,  the  grand- 
daughter of  William  Leete,  Colonial  Governor  of  Con- 
necticut. Rev.  Timothy  Collins  was  the  first  settled  min- 
ister in  Litchfield,  Conn.,  where  he  preached  from  1723 
to  1752.  He  was  also  a  physician  and,  after  he  resigned 
his  pastorate,  in  1752,  devoted  himself  to  the  practice  of 
medicine.  For  several  years  he  held  the  office  of  Jus- 
tice of  the  Peace  in  Litchfield.  He  died  there  in  1776. 
Plis  wife  is  described  as  a  woman  of  great  sense  and 
capability.  She  also  practiced  the  healing  art,  and  her 
ride  was  almost  as  extensive  as  that  of  her  husband  ( His- 
tory of  Goshen,  p.  338). 

Abraham  Wadhams  was  a  soldier  in  the  Revolutionary 
War.  His  name  appears  among  those  who  enlisted  from 
Goshen,  Torrington  and  Warren  at  Litchfield,  January 
21,  1776,  for  eight  weeks,  in  a  regiment  commanded  by 
Colonel  Andrew  Ward,  Jr.,  mider  Major  General  Lee. 
This  list  also  contains  the  names  of  Josiah  Bartholomew, 
Jr.,  Jesse  Stanley  and  Ichabod  Tuttle.     These  men  were

said  to  be  among"  the  most  prominent  in  their  towns  and 
men  of  wealth  (History  of  Town  of  Litchfield,  Conn., 
Geo.  C.  Woodruff,  1845). 

He  was  also  a  member  of  a  company  raised  by  Captain 
Stephen  Goodwin  in  Goshen,  Conn.,  and  vicinity,  for  six 
months'  service.  About  the  first  of  June,  1776,  the  com- 
pany left  Goshen  for  Norwalk,  Conn.,  where  they  were 
joined  by  another  company  and  all  took  passage  on  a 
sloop  for  New  York  City.  Arriving  there  they  were  as- 
signed to  a  battalion  under  Colonel  Fisher  Gay  of  Farm- 
ington.  Conn.  Their  brigade  commander  was  General 
James  Wadsworth  of  Durham,  Conn.  In  New  York  City 
they  were  quartered  for  several  weeks  "in  a  large  brick 
house  near  the  Battery."  General  Washington  was  there 
in  command  of  the  Army  and  on  the  9th  of  July,  1776, 
the  soldiers  were  all  called  out  by  brigades  to  listen  to 
the  reading"  of  the  Declaration  of  Independence  which 
had  just  been  published  and  which  was  received  with 
great  joy.  The  latter  part  of  July  the  brigade  was  ferried 
across  the  East  River  to  Long  Island,  where  they  re- 
mained and  took  part  in  the  battle  of  Long  Island  on 
the  twenty-seventh  of  August.  The  following  December 
the  Goshen  company  returned  home,  their  temi  of  enlist- 
ment having  expired  (Hist.  Goshen). 

The  following  is  from  the  Record  of  Service  of  Con- 
necticut Men  in  the  War  of  the  Revolution,  page  395  : 

"Battalion  was  raised  June  '76  to  reinforce  Washington 
at  N.  Y.  Served  at  the  Brooklyn  front  just  before  and 
during  the  battle  of  L.  I.  Aug.  27;  in  retreat  to  N.  Y. 
-Vug.  29-30;  in  retreat  from  N.  Y.  City,  Sept.  15;  with 
main  army  at  White  Plains.  Time  expired  Dec.  25,  "76. 
Rolls  incomplete." 

Unfortunately  the  rolls  of  the  company  were  lost,  but, 
in  1838,  Mr.  Andrew  Norton  succeeded  in  making  out 
almost  a  complete  list  of  the  soldiers  who  went  from 
Goshen;  among  the  names  in  that  list  is  that  of  "Abra- 
ham Wadhams,  son  of  Jonathan  Wadhams." 

George  C.  Woodruff,  in  his  History  of  Litchfield, 
quotes  a  document  which  was  left  by  Col.  Bezaleel  Beebe 
of  Litchfield,  which  was  then  in  the  possession  of  Payne

K.  Kilbourn.  Capt.  Beebe,  as  he  then  was,  received  or- 
ders to  raise  a  Company  in  and  about  Litchfield.  His 
orders  were  received  on  a  Sunday  and  by  the  following 
Saturday  the  Company  had  been  raised,  armed  and 
equipped  and  were  on  the  march  toward  Fairfield.  The 
document  is  as  follows :

Sixth  Generation  141 

Liiman  Wadhams  left  Goshen  when  a  young  man  and 
settled  in  Charlotte,  Vt.,  where  he  resided  until  the  spring 
of  1809,  when  he  purchased  a  farm  in  the  town  of  Lewis, 
Essex  Co.,  N.  Y.,  lying  between  the  villages  of  Lewis  and 
Elizabethtown,  and  removed  there  with  his  family.  About 
that  time  a  new  regiment  of  militia,  the  Thirty-seventh, 
was  organized  in  Essex  Co.,  N.  Y.,  in  which  Luman  Wad- 
hams  served  as  Lieutenant.  He  was  promoted  to  Captain 
in  181 1  and  on  March  2,  1814,  was  again  promoted  to., 
be  Second  Major.  He  was  in  command  of  a  battalion  of 
that  regiment  in  our  last  war  with  England,  and  took  part 
in  the  battle  of  Plattsburg,  N.  Y.,  11  September,  1814, 
where  for  his  bravery  at  the  front,  he  was  highly  com- 
mended by  his  Commander  in  Chief. 

From  a  newspaper  called  "The  Reveille,''  published  at 
Elizabethtown,  N.  Y..  the  following  quotation  is  ex- 
tracted : 

"Headquarters,  Salmon  River,  Sept.  2,  1814. 

"General  Orders.  The  General  is  highly  gratified  with 
the  good  conduct  displayed  by  the  troops  under  his  com- 
mand yesterday,  in  the  action  with  and  final  repulsion 
of  the  enemy  across  the  Saranac. 

"The  conduct  of  the  Essex  Militia  and  Volunteers  un- 
der Majors  Sanford  and  Wadhams  with  Major  Farns- 
worth's  Corps  of  Vermont  meets  with  the  General's  warm- 
est thanks ;  nor  can  he  fail  mentioning  the  conduct  of 
Capt.  Calkins,  Adjutant  Ross  and  other  of  their  officers, 
in  rallying  their  men  under  a  galling  fire. 

"Bv  order  of  Maj.  Gen.   Moores, 

"R.  H.  Walworth,  A.  D.  C" 

(This  was  Reuben  H.  Walworth  of  Saratoga,  N.  Y., 
the  compiler  of  the  Hyde  Genealogy,  and  Chancellor  of 
the  State  of  New  York.) 

On  April  6,  181 5,  Luman  Wadhams  was  made  First 
Major,  and  on  March  22,  1816,  he  was  made  Lieutenant- 
Colonel  of  his  regiment.  Charles  Bostwick  Prindle,  his 
step-son,  was  pay  master  of  the  same  regiment.  No  Col- 
onels had  been  appointed  in  the  State  Militia  since  1782 
until,  in  1816,  by  order  of  the  Council  of  Appointment. 
the    Lieutenant-Colonels    were    appointed    Colonels,    and 


142  Wadhams  Genealogy 

Luman  Wadhams  was  then  made  Colonel  of  the  Thirty- 
seventh  Regiment.  The  Rev.  Cyrus  Comstock  was  their 
Chaplain.  On  March  17,  1821,  Colonel  Wadhams  was 
made  Brigadier  General  in  command  of  the  Fortieth 
Brigade  of  Infantry,  New  York  State  Militia,  in  place 
of  General  Ransom  Noble,  resigned,  and  Henry  H.  Ross 
took  his  place  as  Colonel  of  the  Thirty-seventh  Regiment. 

In  the  year  1823  Luman  Wadhams  removed  to  the 
town  of  Westport,  in  the  same  county,  where  he  built  a 
*  gristmill  and  sawmill  on  the  Boquet  river  near  a  fine 
waterfall,  and  there  founded  the  village  of  Wadhams 
Mills,  which  lies  about  four  miles  back  from  the  shores 
of  Lake  Champlain  and  northwest  of  the  village  of  West- 
port.  A  postoffice  was  established  and  General  Wad- 
hams was  appointed,  February  25,  1823,  the  first  post- 
master. In  1906  the  Postoffice  Department  at  Washing- 
ton, in  accordance  with  its  policy  of  simplifying  names, 
changed  the  name  of  that  postoffice  from  Wadhams  Mills 
to  that  of  Wadhams.  Luman  Wadhams  and  his  wife 
were  among  the  charter  members  of  the  Congregational 
Church  which  was  formed  there  March  29,  1827.  Mrs. 
Wadhams  survived  her  husband  twenty-six  years.  She 
was  a  woman  of  remarkable  strength  of  character  and 
was  highly  respected  by  all  in  the  community.  She  was 
descended  from  Colonial  Governor  Thomas  Dudley  of 
Massachusetts,  also  from  Rev.  Benjamin  Ruggles,  Rev. 
John  Woodbridge  and  Rev.  Peter  Prudden.  Luman 
Wadhams  was  descended  from  Colonial  Governor  Wil- 
liam Leete  of  Connecticut  through  the  Hyde  and  Collins 
Families.

man  and  A[ar}-  (Goodrich)  Wadhams,  born  19  December, 
1818,  in  Benson,  Vt. ;  died  29  October,  1894,  in  Lockport, 
N.  Y. ;  married  14  October,  1841,  Angeline  Bloss,  daugh- 
ter of  Henry  and  Rebecca  (Chrysler)  Bloss  of  Lock- 
port,  N.  Y.  She  died  5  September,  1896,  in  Lockport. 
The  following  is  extracted  from  a  Lockport,  N.  Y.,  news- 
paper of  October  15,  1891  : 

"The  fiftieth  anniversary  of  the  marriage  of  Perry  G. 
Wadhams  and  Angeline  Bloss  was  celebrated  at  their 
home,  26  Chapel  Street,  last  evening. 

"Mr.  Wadhams  has  been  a  prominent  figure  in  the  his- 
tory of  Lockport.  where  his  home  has  been  since  1839. 
His  active  life  has  been  connected  with  many  of  the  in- 
terests and  enterprises  incident  to  its  growth  and  pros- 
perity, and  all  old  residents  of  our  city,  and  many  of  our 
younger  population,  rejoice  that  the  days  of  his  years 
have  been  so  extended  that  he  celebrates  in  this  present 
year  the  recurrence  of  his  marriage  with  his  wife,  who, 
during  all  the  struggle  of  life,  has  been  his  faithful  help- 
meet and  devoted  companion. 

"Mr.  Wadhams'  early  boyhood  was  spent  in  Vermont. 
In  1827  he  went  to  Orleans  County,  where  he  remained 
a  short  time  and  afterwards  lived  at  different  places  until 
1839,  when  he  came  to  Lockport  during  the  construction 
of  the  Erie  canal.  Eight  or  ten  years  were  spent  in  the 
building  and  enlargement  of  the  canal,  variously  as  work- 
man, foreman  and  superintendent  of  Section  10,  also 
carrying  on  a  grocery  business  during  that  time.  Two 
years  since  his  active  life  ceased  by  the  intervention  of 
paralysis,  from  which,  however,  he  has  largely  recovered. 

"In  1841  Mr.  Wadhams  met  Angeline  Bloss,  and  on 
October  14th  of  that  year  they  were  married  by  the  Rev. 
Dr.  Tucker  of  the  Baptist  Church.  The  wedding  took 
place  at  the  residence  of  Lyman  A.  Bradley  on  High 
Street,  in  an  old  fashioned  log  house.  For  their  wedding 
tour  they  visited  Niagara  Falls,  going  in  a  hack,  as  rail- 
roads did  not  then  furnish  them  an  easier  and  quicker 
way  of  traveling."

1887,  in  Williamstown,  Mass. 

Mark  Hopkins  was  fitted  for  college  at  Clinton,  N.  Y.,

Rev.  Jared  Curtis.     He  entered  Williams  College  as  a 
sophomore  in  1821,  was  graduated  in  1824,  valedictorian 
of  the  class,  and  at  once  took  up  teaching  while  studying

college,  he  worked  to  promote  the  religious  interests  of 
the  college,  endeavoring  not  so  much  to  build  up  a  great 
institution,  but  to  make  it  a  safe  one,  a  place  where  young 
men  "shall  grow  up  at  the  same  time  into  the  light  of 
science  and  the  beauty  of  holiness."     Besides  preaching 
one-third  of  the  time  on  Sabbath  mornings,  he  held  the 
chair  of  Moral  and  Intellectual  Philosophy  from    1836, 
and,  after  1856,  that  of  Christian  Theology.     In  1857  he 
was  elected  President  of  the  American  Board  of  Com- 
missioners for  Foreign   Missions.     His  more  important 
published   works   are :     Evidences  of   Christianity :   The 
Law  of  Love,  and  Love  as  a  Lav.-,  and  An  Outline  Study 
of  Man.     I-Ie  received  the  degree  of  Doctor  of  Divinity 
from   Dartmouth   and  Harvard,  and   that  of  Doctor  of 
Laws  from  the  Board  of  Regents,  New  York.

325  Delia''  Beach,  daughter  of  John  and  DeHa  (Hill- 
house)  Beach,  born  9  September,  1814,  in  Goshen,  Conn.; 
died  there  11  May,  1894;  married  11  May,  1842,  Henry 
Norton,  son  of  Lewis  Mills  and  Laura  (Foot)  Norton. 
He  was  born  in  Goshen  10  November,  181 5,  and  died 
there  17  July,  1895. 

Henry  Norton  was  a  son  of  Deacon  Lewis  Mills  Nor- 
ton who,  for  many  years,  collected  and  carefully  preserved 
the  historical,  biographical  and  genealogical  data  which 
form  the  basis  of  the  "History  of  the  Town  of  Goshen, 
Conn.,"  written  by  Rev.  A.  G.  Hibbard,  A.  M.,  and  pub- 
lished in  1897.  Mr.  Hibbard  writes  "Had  his  (Deacon 
Norton's)  work  been  delayed  a  single  decade,  but  few  of 
the  facts  could  have  been  gathered.  He  commenced  at 
a  time  when  he  could  converse  with  the  children  of  the 
first  settlers,  with  soldiers  of  the  Revolution,  with  those 
who  knew  the  first  minister  and  whose  parents  had 
founded  all  the  (Goshen)  churches.  For  years  before 
his  death  he  was  accustomed  to  carry  pencil  and  paper 
wherever  he  went,  and  he  recognized  in  every  man  and 
woman  he  met  a  possible  source  of  wished  for  informa- 
tion, for  which  he  was  not  slow  to  ask,  nor  negligent  to 
record.  .  .  .  He  traveled  hundreds  of  miles,  wrote 
hundreds  of  letters,  examined  records  of  Probate  Courts, 
of  towns,  and  of  families,  was  often  on  his  knees  to  read 
the  inscription  upon  some  ancient  grave  stone,  and  de- 
ciphered old  accounts  in  private  journals." 

The  manuscript  statistics  which  were  gathered  by  Dea- 
con Norton  have  been  bound  in  two  volumes  of  600 
pages  each.  The  writing  is  very  fine,  but  was  done  with 
such  care  it  can  be  easily  read.  Deacon  Norton  died  30 
April,  i860. 

Henry  Norton  was,  throughout  his  long  life  of  eighty 
vears,  much  interested  in  the  history  and  prosperity  of 


Seventh  Generation  247 

Goshen.  During  his  early  manhood  he  assisted  his  father 
in  summer  in  surveying  and  in  winter  he  taught  school. 
He  was  later  a  member  of  the  School  Board  for  many 
years.  Was  appointed  County  Surveyor  in  1841,  and  was 
later  made  Deputy  State  Surveyor  for  Litchfield  County, 
He  represented  the  town  in  the  State  Legislature  in  1852. 
He  is  said  to  have  been  much  interested  in  astronomy  and 
geology.  His  wife,  Delia  Beach,  who  was  a  great-great- 
granddaughter  of  Noah  and  Anne  Hurlbut  Wadhams  of 
Goshen,  was,  Mr.  Hibbard  states,  "a  noble  woman,  intel- 
ligent, studious,  making  home  attractive,  and  interest- 
ing herself  in  everything  that  could  add  to  the  good  of 
the  community."

in  Plymouth,  Pa. ;  died  18  January,  1889,  in  Wilkes  Barre, 
Pa.;  married  7  October,  1851,  Esther  Taylor  French, 
daughter  of  Samuel  and  Lydia*'  (Wadhams,  No.  151) 
French.  She  was  born  12  February,  1830,  in  Plymouth, 
and  died  12  February,  1908,  on  her  78th  birthday,  in 
Wilkes  Barre,  Pa.  Mrs.  Wadhams  was  educated  at  the 
Wyoming  Seminary  and  at  the  Moravian  Seminary  at 
Bethlehem,  Pa.  "She  was  of  an  unselfish  disposition  and 
in  her  younger  days,  before  the  time  when  professional 
nurses  were  known,  freely  gave  her  services  at  the  bed- 
side of  the  sick.  She  was  always  devoted  to  her  family 
and  relatives,  by  whom  she  was  most  highly  esteemed  as 
a  woman  of  exemplary  character  and  lovable  traits.  Her 
benefactions  were  of  the  kind  that  sought  no  display  but 
lived  in  the  lives  of  others  and  her  own  self-sacrifice" 
(The  Record,  Wilkes  Barre,  Pa.,  13  Feb.,  1908). 

Hon.  Elijah  Catlin  Wadhams  was  educated  at  Dana's 
Academy  at  Wilkes  Barre ;  Dickinson  College  at  Carlisle, 
Pa.;  and  in  1847  was  graduated  from  the  University  of 
the  City  of  New  York.  He  settled  in  Plymouth,  Pa., 
where  for  twenty  years  he  was  a  Justice  of  the  Peace  and 
Burgess  for  seven  years.  In  1873  h^  removed  to  Wilkes 
Barre,  Pa.    For  more  than  thirty  years  he  was  a  Director

in  the  Wyoming  National  Bank  and  was  President  of  the 
First  National  Bank  at  the  time  of  his  death.  He  was 
elected  by  the  Republicans  in  1876  to  the  Senate  of 
Pennsylvania,  and  was  highly  commended  for  the  good 
work  he  did  there  in  behalf  of  his  native  State.  He  was 
a  prominent  member  of  the  Central  Methodist  Episcopal 
Church  of  Wilkes  Barre  and  was  for  many  years  Super- 
intendent of  its  Sunday  School. 

"The  death  (by  paralysis)  of  Hon.  E.  C.  Wadhams 
causes  universal  sorrow  throughout  this  city  and  valley. 
The  beneficent  influence  of  such  a  life  can 
scarcely  be  estimated.  Here  was  a  conservatism  which 
precluded  unripe  decisions  of  judgment,  but  did  not  pre- 
vent an  influence  being  cast  always  in  the  direction  of 
healthful  progress  and  improvement  in  all  affairs  with 
which  he  was  identified.  He  was  gifted  with  a  sound 
constitution,  unimpaired  by  any  organic  trouble,  but  his 
untiring  energy  and  consequent  hard  work  doubtless 
shortened  his  life.  In  church  matters  he  coupled  faith 
and  works.  His  work  in  the  official  affairs  of  the  church 
with  which  he  was  identified,  and  his  earnest  endeavors 
as  Superintendent  of  the  Sunday  School  are  monuments 
in  themselves.  Mr.  Wadhams  was  of  a  decided  social 
nature.  He  loved  to  have  his  friends  about  him  and  was 
ever  a  successful  and  courteous  host.  He  combined  a 
liberal  education  and  culture  with  a  high  standard  of 
manhood,  tempered  with  that  essential  factor,  common 
sense.  The  many  associations  of  a  business,  social  or 
religious  sort  to  which  he  belonged  will  sincerely  mourn 
the  loss  of  an  enthusiastic  worker,  a  valued  official  and 
an  upright  citizen"  (The  Record,  Wilkes  Barre,  Pa., 
Jan.  21,  1889).

Jay,  Essex  County,  N.  Y. ;  married  23  October,  1826,  in 
Westport,  N.  Y.,  Benjamin  Wells,  son  of  Elisha  and 
Jerusha  (Paine)  Wells.  He  was  born  13  May,  1802,  in 
Williamsburg,  IVIass.,  and  died  23  January,  1889,  in  Up- 
per Jay,  N.  Y. 

Benjamin  Wells  was  fourteen  years  of  age  when,  in 
1816,  he  removed  with  his  parents  from  Williamsburg, 
Mass.,  to  Upper  Jay,  N.  Y.,  where  they  established  their 
new  home  on  the  banks  of  the  Ausable  River.  His  unclq, 
Reuben  Wells,  was  largely  engaged  in  the  fur  trade  in 
northern  New  York.  At  the  death  of  Reuben  Wells  his 
lands  in  Essex  County,  N.  Y.,  fell  to  his  brother  Elisha, 
the  father  of  Benjamin,  and  this  led  them  to  make  their 
home  in  what  was  then  a  wilderness  country.  For  a  time 
Benjamin  Wells,  in  association  with  his  brother,  carried  on 
the  manufacture  of  bloom  iron,  but  he  at  length  devoted 
himself  to  farming.  He  was  a  man  of  the  highest  char- 
acter, one  of  the  founders  of  the  Congregational  church 
in  Upper  Jay  and  for  fifty  years  one  of  its  deacons.  He 
was  a  leader  in  all  benevolent  and  philanthropic  move- 
ments in  his  vicinity  and  was  widely  known  as  an  honored 
citizen  of  his  town.  He  and  his  noble  wife,  Jane  Wad- 
hams Wells,  worked  together  in  all  the  pioneer  undertak- 
ings of  their  lives,  and  to  her,  equally  with  her  husband, 
was  due  their  success  in  life.  They  labored  hand  in  hand 
during  sixty  years — years  of  content  and  fruitful  en- 
deavor.

Wadhams  Mills,  N.  Y. ;  married  9  July,  1830,  in  West- 
port,  N.  Y..  Emeline  Loretta  Cole,  daughter  of  Samuel 
and  Rachel  (Curtis)  Cole.  She  was  born  3  November,

The  follov/ing  is  taken  from  her  obituary  notice  in  the

"Mrs.  Wadhams  was  a  person  of  remarkable  physical 
force  and  mental  energy,  a  consistent  Christian,  whose 
life  exemplified  the  noblest  characteristics  of  a  woman. 
As  a  loving-  wife,  she  was  the  fitting  companion  and 
helper  of  a  noble  husband.    As  a  mother  she  devoted  her

life  to  the  careful  education  of  her  large  family,  and  it 
was  the  glory  of  her  riper  years  that  she  could  see  each 
of  her  nine  children  established  in  positions  of  honor 
and  influence  in  the  communities  in  which  they  live.  Not- 
withstanding all  the  demands  upon  her  strength  and  her 
patience  incident  to  the  rearing  of  so  large  a  family  she 
was,  during  all  her  history,  an  example  of  vigorous  health 
and  abounding  spirits.  Her  grown  up  children,  long 
after  they  had  established  homes  of  their  own,  were  still 
her  children,  governed  by  her  influence  and  her  wishes, 
as  they  had  been  in  the  days  of  their  childhood.  It 
was  her  custom  to  visit  them  all  in  their  widely  separated 
homes,  and  it  was  a  rare  sight  to  see  this  energetic  septu- 
agenarian start  on  a  trip  across  the  continent,  to  visit  her 
sons  and  their  families  in  the  Pacific  States,  and  an  in- 
spiration to  see  her  return,  fresh  and  vigorous,  to  bring 
good  news  from  those  she  had  left,  and  to  cheer  the  hearts 
of  those  to  whom  she  returned." 

Emeline  (Cole)  Wadhams  was  descended  from  the 
Cole  family  of  Warren,  R.  I.,  her  father,  Samuel**  Cole, 
being  a  son  of  Edward,"'  Ebenezer,*  Ebenezer,'  Hugh,^ 
James.^  James  Cole  came  from  London,  England,  and 
was  in  Plymouth,  Mass.,  as  early  as  1633.  He  was  the 
first  occupant  of  the  little  hill  where  the  early  pilgrims 
were  buried.  It  is  still  called  Cole's  Hill.  He  kept  an  inn 
from  1638  to  1660,  being,  probably,  the  first  inn-keeper 
in  New  England. 

William  Luman  Wadhams,  after  the  death  of  his  father, 
in  1832,  carried  on  the  milling  industry  in  Wadhams

years,  and  also  Justice  of  the  Peace.  In  December,  1849, 
he  went  to  California  by  way  of  the  Isthmus  of  Panama, 
where  he  remained  a  little  more  than  a  year,  returning 
home  in  February,  1851.  In  April  of  that  same  year  he 
returned  to  San  Francisco,  taking  with  him  his  eldest  son.

there,  and  soon  after  that  Mr.  Wadhams  returned  home, 
leaving  his  two  sons  in  San  Francisco,  established  in 
business.     On  his  return  to  Wadhams  Mills  he  resumed

the  business  which  he  had  pursued  previous  to  going  to 
CaHfornia,  and  added  to  it  other  enterprises  important 
for  his  locaHty.  The  exceptional  energy,  intelHgence  and 
industry  which  he  brought  to  his  business  characterized 
his  social  and  religious  life.  Never  wearying  in  works 
of  generous  helpfulness  toward  his  friends  he  became  the 
trusted  adviser  of  the  many  who  sought  his  good  offices. 
In  the  Congregational  church,  where  for  many  years  he 
was  the  senior  deacon,  he  was  the  indefatigable  and  al- 
ways cheerful  leader  and  a  conscientious  follower  of  the 
teachings  of  his  religion.  Throughout  northern  New 
York  State  he  was  recognized  as  a  man  of  shrewd  judg- 
ment, of  never  failing  good  humor  and  as  a  most  gener- 
ous and  honorable  business  man.  His  death,  which  oc- 
curred in  his  fifty-seventh  year,  removed  one  of  the  most 
prominent  and  useful  citizens  of  Essex  County.

Abraham  E.  Wadhams  resided  on  a  farm  near  the  vil- 
lage of  Wadhams  Mills.  He  was  also  engaged  in  milling 
industries  there  with  his  brother  William.  About  1850 
he  went  to  California,  taking  with  him  his  eldest  son 
Edmund.  In  1852  he  returned  home  via  Isthmus  of 
Panama,  leaving  his  son  in  California.  A  friend  who  was 
traveling  with  him  had  a  fever  and  died  at  sea.  Mr. 
Wadhams,  in  caring  for  him,  contracted  the  fever  and 
died  a  short  time  after  he  reached  home.

359  Right  Reverend  Edgar  Prindle'^  Wadhams, 
son  of  Luman  and  Lucy  (Bostwick  (Prindle)  Wadhams, 
born  21  May,  1817,  in  Lewis,  Essex  Co.,  N.  Y. ;  died  5 
December,  1891,  in  Ogdensburg,  N.  Y. 

Edgar  P.  Wadhams  attended  the  district  school  in  his 
neighborhood  and  in  1830  continued  his  studies  at  the 
Academy  at  Shoreham,  Vt.,  and  at  Hinesburg,  Vt.  In 
1834  he  entered  Middlebury  College,  Vermont,  and  grad- 
uated in  1838.  During  those  four  years  he  resided  with 
his  half  sister,  Mrs.  Harriet  (Prindle)  Weeks,  the  wife 
of  John  Mosely  Weeks  of  Salisbury,  Vt.  They  were 
prominent  members  of  the  Episcopal  church  and  Edgar, 
although  reared  a  Congregationalist,  while  there  united 
with  their  church  and»  decided  to  devote  his  life  to  the 
ministry.  He  soon  entered  the  General  Theological  Semi- 
nary in  New  York  City.  In  1843  he  was  ordained  deacon 
and  was  appointed  to  the  care  of  the  Episcopal  churches 
in  Ticonderoga  and  vicinity,  in  his  native  county.  Asso- 
ciated with  him  in  this  missionary  work  was  the  Rev. 
Clarence  A.  Walworth,  son  of  Reuben  H.  Walworth  of 
Saratoga,  N.  Y.,  a  distant  kin  of  his  and  a  fellow  student 
at  the  Seminary.  They  remained  intimate  friends  during 
all  their  lives  and  the  biography  of  Edgar  Wadhams  was 
written  by  Rev.  Father  Walworth,  who  survived  him. 
While  they  were  students  at  the  Seminary  they  became, 
with  others  of  their  class,  much  interested  in  the  Tract- 
arian  or  Puseyite  movement  in  Oxford,  England.  After 
struggling  for  two  years  with  that  problem  and  with  their 
natural  reluctance  to  leave  the  faith  of  their  families  and 
friends,  they  both  announced  their  change  of  faith  and 
gave  up  their  work.  Clarence  Walworth  went  to  a  Semi- 
nary in  Belgium  and  Edgar  Wadhams  entered  St.  Mary's 
Seminary  in  Baltimore,  Md.,  where,  in  1846,  he  was  re- 
ceived into  the  Roman  Catholic  Church.  On  January 
15,  1850,  he  was  ordained  Priest  at  St.  Mary's  Pro  Cathe- 
dral, in  Albany,  N.  Y.  In  1866  he  was  made  Rector  of 
the  new  Cathedral  there,  and  later  on  was  elected  Vicar 
General  of  the  diocese  of  Albany,  holding  that  office  until 
1872,  when  he  was  consecrated  Bishop  and  assigned  to  the 
new  diocese  of  Ogdensburg,  N.  Y.    There  Bishop  Wad-

hams  labored  with  great  faithfulness  and  efficiency  for 
nearly  twenty  years.  While  he  was  in  Albany  he  re- 
ceived the  degree  of  D.  D.,  and  not  long  before  he  died 
Middlebury  College  conferred  upon  him  the  degree  of 
LL.  D.  He  died  as  he  had  lived,  strong  in  his  faith, 
mourned  by  all,  both  Protestant  and  Roman  Catholic. 
The  tomb  of  Bishop  Wadhams  is  in  the  Crypt  of  the 
Cathedral  in  Ogdensburg.

Mrs.  Myraetta  (Wadhams)  Rae  was  a  confirmed  in-

tracted from  a  notice  of  her  death  in  the  Utica  Press  of 
May  14.  1901  : 

''In  spite  of  her  bodily  infirmity,  however,  her  mind 
was  bright  and  active  and  she  was  not  only  patient,  but 
always  cheerful.  She  never  uttered  a  word  of  complaint 
and  was  very  charitable  in  her  opinions  of  others.  She 
had  a  keen  sense  of  humor,  enjoyed  a  good  story  and 
kept  in  touch  with  affairs  of  the  present  day.  She  was  a 
woman  of  artistic  tastes  and  a  lover  of  the  beautiful. 
She  possesed  good  judgment  in  business  matters  and 
was  highly  esteemed  by  many  who  delighted  to  call  upon 
her.  Mrs.  Rae  was  one  of  the  oldest  members  of  the 
Presbyterian  church,  and  as  long  as  she  was  able  took 
a  helpful  rather  than  a  prominent  part  in  the  church 
work.''

376  Anna  Maria''  Parker,  daughter  of  John  and  Al-

N.  Y. ;  married  5  March,  1838,  Nathan  Smith  Davis, 
M.  D.  He  was  iDorn  9  January,  18 17.  in  the  town  of 
Greene,  Chenango  County,  N.  Y.,  son  of  Dow  and  Eleanor 
(Smith)  Davis.  He  died  16  June,  1904,  in  Chicago,  111. 
Dr.  Davis  graduated  from  the  College  of  Physicians  and 
Surgeons,  Fairfield,  N.  Y.,  31  January,  1837.  He  prac- 
ticed medicine  in  Vienna  and  Binghamton,  N.  Y.  He 
went  to  Chicago,  111.,  in  1849,  where  for  many  years  he 
occupied  the  chair  of  Physiology-  and  Pathology  in  Rush 
Medical  College.  Dr.  Davis  became  one  of  the  most 
prominent  physicians  in  Chicago,  and  was  one  of  the  or- 
ganizers of  the  Northwestern  University.  He  was  justly 
called  the  Father  of  the  American  JMedical  Association, 
in  which  his  influence  was  predominant  during  all  the 
latter  years  of  his  life.  The  following  paragraph  is  ex- 
tracted from  the  leading  editorial  of  the  Journal  of  the 
American  Medical  Associatioi,  July  25,  1904: 

"In  the  death  of  Dr.  Nathan  Smith  Davis  the  medical 
profession  has  lost  a  member  who  always  stood  for  the 
highest  and  noblest  in  ethics,  in  morals  and  in  right  living. 
Dr.  Davis  worked  long  and  earnestly  for  high  ideals  in 
medicine,  and  for  the  betterment  of  his  profession  in  every 
way.  He  represented  before  the  people  the  best  and  pur- 
est in  that  profession,  and  he  always  advocated  that  which 
he  believed  to  be  for  the  welfare  of  his  confreres  and  for 
the  good  of  the  people.  However,  it  was  as  a  medical 
teacher  that  Dr.  Davis  was  best  known,  and  thousands  of 
men  now  in  practice  reverence  his  name  because  of  the 
influence  he  exerted  on  them  during  their  student  days." 

From  the  Neiv  York  Medical  Journal,  July  25.  1904,  the 
following  is  taken: 

"He  was  born  a  ruler  of  men.  .  .  .  The  entire 
profession  felt  and  acknowledged  his  sway.  He  was  un- 
flinching and  unsparing  in  pursuit  of  what  he  looked  upon 
as  the  right." 


Seventh  Generation  279 

He  died  at  the  age  of  eighty-seven,  beloved  and  es- 
teemed in  his  own  city  and  honored  throughout  the  Na- 
tion by  men  of  his  own  profession  as  one  who  had  left 
upon  the  history  of  medicine  an  enduring  impression.

"Rev.  Linus  Parker.  A.  M..  D.  D..  was  Bishop  in  the 
Methodist  Episcopal  Church,  South.  His  childhood  was 
spent  upon  the  farm  under  the  influence  of  the  sturdy, 
Christian  virtues  of  his  parents.  The  home,  the  church 
and  the  country  school  were  the  determining  influences  of 
his  early  life.  Li  1845  ^^^  took  up  his  residence  in  New 
Orleans.  The  years  from  1845  to  May,  1849,  were  de- 
voted to  work  and  study.  A  few  months  were  spent  in 
pursuing  his  studies  at  the  Mandeville  College.  He  used 
every  means  to  supplement  the  lack  of  a  complete  college 
education,  and  by  the  use  of  private  teachers  and  great 
industry  became  a  competent  scholar.  He  gained  a  good 
working  knowledge  of  Latin,  Greek  and  Hebrew,  and  a 
considerable  familiarity  with  modern  languages,  acquir- 
ing a  strong  and  graceful  English  style.  His  wide  read- 
ing, retentive  memory,  and  critical  habit  of  mind,  sectu^ed 
for  him  the  resources  of  a  thoroughly  cultivated  man. 
In  1846  he  united  with  the  Methodist  Episcopal  church. 
In   1849,  while  a  law  student,  he  was  impressed  with  a 


28o  Wadhams  Genealogy 

call  to  the  ministry.  After  debating  the  question  in  his 
own  mind  for  some  months,  he  yielded  to  the  call  of  duty 
and  was  duly  licensed  to  preach,  May  15,  1849.  ^^or  a 
few  months  in  this  year  he  supplied  a  small  church  in 
Algiers,  a  suburb  of  New  Orleans.  His  first  regular  pas- 
torate was  in  Lake  Providence,  La.,  Circuit.  He  was  then 
assigned  to  the  First  Methodist  Church  in  Shreveport, 
La.,  and  two  years  after  he  was  pastor  of  the  Felicity 
Street  Church  in  New  Orleans.  He  remained  there,  fill- 
ing the  leading  appointments  and  the  presiding  eldership 
until  1870,  when  he  was  called  to  the  editorial  chair  of 
the  New  Orleans  Christian  Advocate.  Under  his  ad- 
ministration the  paper  rose  to  a  position  of  great  influ- 
ence. In  May,  1882,  he  was  elevated  to  the  episcopacy. 
In  this  office  he  exhibited  the  same  resourcefulness  which 
had  characterized  his  ministry  in  every  position  he  had 
occupied."

They  reside  in  New  York  City. 

They  occupy,  as  their  summer  home,  the  old  house  in 
South  End,  Goshen,  which  was  built  in   1778  by  Seth 
Wadhams,   who   was   Mrs.    Striker's   great-grandfather, 
from  whom  it  passed  directly  down  to  Mrs.  Striker.     It 
is  a  two  and  a  half  story,  gambrel-roofed  house,  built  of 
bricks  brought  by  a  sailing  vessel  from  Holland  to  Bridge- 
port, Conn.,  and  taken  from  there  by  team  to  Goshen, 
The  interior,  with  its  large  rooms  with  fire-places  in  each 
room,  is  unchanged,  and  the  small,  square  panes  of  glass 
and  the  antique  iron  thumb-latches  on  all  the  doors  are 
still  preserved.    Owing  to  the  intelligent  care  of  the  pres- 
ent owner  the  house  continues  today  to  be  in  an  excellent 
state  of  preservation  and  is  a   fine  example  of  a  high 
class  New  England  farm  house  of  the  early  period.

Trumbull  Lee ;  married  14  June,  1854,  in  Whiting,  Vt., 
Lucinda  Angela  Skinner,  the  ceremony  being  performed 
by  her  two  uncles,  Rev.  Calvin  Cady,  a  Congregational 
minister  of  St.  Albans,  Vt.,  and  Rev.  Otis  Ainsworth 
Skinner,  a  Universalist  minister  of  Boston.  Mass.  She 
was  born  6  January,  1834,  in  Wadhams  Mills,  N.  Y., 
daughter  of  George  and  Clara  (Cady)  Skinner.  Some 
years  after  her  birth  her  father  removed  to  Vermont. 

William  Wadhams  went  with  his  father  in  1851  to  San 
Francisco,  Cal.  They  sailed  from  New  York  City  the  22d 
of  April,  on  the  steamer  "Ohio,"  for  Havana,  Cuba ;  there 
they  took  the  ship  "Falcon"  for  Chagres ;  from  there  they 
went  up  the  Chagres  River  in  canoes  as  far  as  Gorgona, 
thence  by  mule  to  Panama,  one  afternoon's  ride  ;  they  then 
embarked  on  the  steamer  "Isthmus"  and  reached  San 
Francisco  on  the  loth  of  June,  1851,  just  seven  weeks 
after  their  departure  from  New  York  City. 

Soon  after  his  arrival  in  San  Francisco,  William  Wad- 
hams was  appointed  to  a  position  in  the  United  States 
Post  Office,  which  place  he  held  for  several  years.  In 
May,  1854,  he  returned  to  the  East,  married,  and  with  his 
bride  he  again  went  to  San  Francisco,  and  soon  after- 
wards engaged  in  the  wholesale  grocery  business. 

In  February,  1865,  he  removed  to  Portland,  Oregon,  to 
establish  there  a  branch  house  of  one  of  the  largest  whole- 
sale grocery  firms  in  San  Francisco.  In  after  years  he 
succeeded  to  the  business  thus  established,  under  the  well 
known  firm  name  of  Wadhams  &  Co.,  and  continued  in 
this  business  up  to  the  time  of  his  death.  He  was  one  of 
the  founders  of  the  Oregon  Barrel  Company  at  St.  Johns, 
Oregon,  which  for  many  years  supplied  thousands  of  bar- 
rels and  kegs  for  the  sugar  planters  of  the  Hawaiian 
Islands.  He  was  also  engaged  in  the  salmon  canning 
industry. 

During  his  forty  years'  residence  in  Portland  he  was 
widely  known  throughout  the  Pacific  Coast  as  a  man  of 
the  strictest  integrity.  While  thus  known  as  a  business 
man,  he  was  at  the  same  time  as  extensively  known  as  a 
Christian  worker  in  both  church  and  charitable  circles. 
He  was  for  many  years  elder  in  the  PTrst  Presbyterian 


Eighth  Generation  405 

Church  and  Superintendent  of  its  Sunday  School.  He 
was  one  of  the  organizers  of  the  Young  Men's  Christian 
Association  in  Portland  and  was  devoted  to  it.  Among 
the  many  public  interests  in  which  he  was  not  only  an 
active  but  a  most  efficient  promoter,  were  the  Christian 
Missions  in  Alaska,  the  reformation  and  welfare  of  pris- 
oners, the  cause  of  education  in  general  and  many  other 
works  of  philanthropy.  The  sweetness  and  charm  of  his 
voice  in  rendering  gospel  hymns  was  well  known  and  en- 
joyed by  many  on  that  coast. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  Wadhams,  having  no  children  of  their 
own,  adopted  two  orphans  in  July,  1869,  who  took  the 
name  of  Wadhams.

633  LuMAN^  Wadham,  son  of  William  Luman  and 
Emeline  Loretta  (Cole)  Wadhams,  born  22  August,  1833, 
in  Wadhams  Mills,  N.  Y.,  died  at  the  home  of  his  daugh- 
ter, Mrs.  Robert  H.  Chandler,  20  August,  1907,  in  San 
Francisco,  Cal. ;  married  16  April,  1857,  in  San  Francisco, 
Elizabeth  S.  T.  Stayner,  who  was  born  on  the  Island  of 
Guernsey,  England,  16  March,  1836. 

Luman  Wadham  went  to  San  Francisco  in  1852  with 
his  uncle,  Abraham  Wadhams,  and  established  his  home 
there  in  the  days  of  the  pioneers.  From  those  early  days 
he  was  closely  identified  with  civic  affairs,  having  served 
as  Secretary  to  the  Bank  Commissioners,  as  School  Direc- 
tor and  as  Tax  Collector.  He  was  well  known  as  an  ex- 
pert accountant.  Mr.  Wadham  was  a  man  of  very  gen- 
erous nature,  loyal  to  his  friends  and  always  ready  to  give 
a  helping  hand.  His  home,  with  its  contents,  was  burned 
at  the  time  of  the  great  fire  which  followed  the  earthquake 
in  1905.  The  hardships  immediately  succeeding  that  event 
contributed  much  toward  undermining  his  health  and 
doubtless  hastened  his  death.

and  Betsey  (Alden)  Cady.  He  was  born  in  Wadhams 
Mills  16  July,  1834.  His  mother  was  a  direct  descendant 
of  John  and  Priscilla  Alden  of  the  Mayflower.  Two  years 
after  their  marriage  they  removed  to  Illinois.  They  lived 
for  several  years  in  Wilmington  and  in  1886  removed  to 
Joliet,  where  Mr.  Cady  was  engaged  in  the  hardware  busi- 
ness. Both  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Cady  were  active  members  there 
of  the  Central  Presbyterian  Church.  Mr.  Cady  died  29 
November.  1909,  at  the  home  of  his  son,  Frederick  Wad- 
hams Cady,  in  Chicago. 

Lucy  B.  Wadhams  was  educated  at  a  private  school  in 
Essex,  N.  Y.,  and  at  the  Smith  and  Converse  Female 
Seminary  at  Burlington,  Vt.  She  was  always  much  in- 
terested in  philanthropic  and  church  work.  The  obituary 
notice  in  "The  Joliet  Evening  Herald"  of  October  4,  1906, 
well  describes  her  early  life.  "Her  childhood  and  girlhood 
days  were  in  many  v^ays  ideal.  Five  brothers  and  three 
sisters,  with  father  and  mother,  constituted  the  circle 
around  the  old  fashioned  fireplace.  In  such  a  home  one 
learns  more  perfectly  the  tender  lessons  of  unselfishness 
and  generosity.  In  addition,  it  was  her  good  fortune  to 
be  born  into  the  lap  of  Christianity.  The  atmosphere  per- 
vading the  home  was  distinctly  religious  :  every  morning, 
whether  the  father  was  present  or  absent,  the  family  was 
called  together  for  a  lesson  from  the  VAh\e  ar.d  a  talk  with

God.    And  some  of  us  make  no  doubt  that  the  lessons  so 
learned  have  proven  life's  richest  treasures  and  realities."

635  Frances  Burchard**  Wadhams,  daughter  of 
William  Luman  and  Emeline  Loretta  (Cole)  Wadhams, 
was  born  2  November,  1838,  in  Wadhams  Mills,  N.  Y. 
She  was  educated  at  a  private  school  in  Essex,  N.  Y.,  and 
at  the  Smith  and  Converse  Female  Seminary  in  Burling- 
ton, \'ermont.  She  married,  1st,  2  August,  i860,  George 
Daniel  Davenport,  of  Salisbury.  Vt.  He  was  born  in 
Brandon,  Vt.,  22  July,  1832,  son  of  Thomas  and  Emily 
(Goss)  Davenport.  His  father,  Thomas  Davenport,  was 
a  man  of  high  inventive  genius.  He  was, the  discoverer 
of  the  principle  of  rotary  motion  induced  by  an  electric 
current.  His  patent,  which  expired  in  1851,  the  year  of 
his  death  in  Brandon,  Vt.,  would,  were  it  still  in  effect, 
cover  all  the  modern  applications  of  electric  force  to  the 
movement  of  machinery  and  the  propulsion  of  motor  cars 
and  other  vehicles  by  this  power.  Even  at  that  early 
period  he  first  actually  applied  the  electric  current  to  the 
practical  operation  of  a  printing  press  and  he  propelled 
models  of  railway  cars  by  the  same  force.  George  D.  Dav- 
enport was  prepared  for  college  in  Brandon,  Vt.,  and  en- 
tered Middlebury  College  in  1852,  graduating  in  1856. 
During  his  college  years  he  spent  his  vacations  in  teaching, 
and  continued  in  this  vocation  after  graduation.  He  en- 
tered the  service  of  the  Government  as  a  volunteer  in  the

Fifth  Vermont  Regiment  in  1861,  enlisting  as  Orderly 
Sergeant  of  his  Company.  He  was  soon  promoted  to  a 
Lieutenancy,  and  then  to  the  Captaincy  of  the  same  Com- 
pany. With  his  regiment,  he  served  in  the  Army  of  the 
Potomac  with  the  Sixth  Corps.  In  the  battle  of  the  Wil- 
derness, May  5,  1864,  he  received  a  wound  from  which  he 
died  on  the  12th  of  the  same  month.  He  was  an  able  offi- 
cer and  a  brave  soldier.  During  the  Civil  War,  Mrs.  Dav- 
enport lived  in  Washington,  D.  C,  and  was  frequently 
with  her  husband  in  camp. 

On  the  26th  of  September,  1867,  she  married  2nd.  in

of  Brandon,  Vt.  He  was  born  8  June,  1834,  in  Shore- 
ham,  Vt.,  son  of  John  Mason  and  Polly  (Wilson)  Orms- 
bee. He  attended  the  academies  in  Brandon  and  South 
Woodstock,  and  was  admitted  to  the  Bar  of  Rutland 
County,  Vermont,  in  1861.  In  April  of  that  year  he  en- 
listed in  the  First  Vermont  Volunteer  Regiment ;  was 
elected  Second  Lieutenant,  and  later  was  made  Captain  in 
the  1 2th  Regiment,  Vermont  Volunteers.  This  regiment 
served  in  the  Army  of  the  Potomac  and  was  mustered  out 
in  1863.  Captain  Ormsbee  then  returned  to  Brandon  and 
began  the  practice  of  law.  He  was  Assistant  United 
States  Internal  Revenue  Assessor,  1868-1872;  State's  At- 
torney for  Rutland  County,  1870-74 ;  Town  Representa- 
tive from  Brandon  in  the  Legislature,  1870;  State  Senator 
from  his  County,  1878,  and  Trustee  of  the  Vermont  Re- 
form School,  1880-84  ;  now  Trustee  of  University  of  Ver- 
mont. Always  an  active  member  of  the  State  Republican 
Committee,  he  advanced  rapidly  in  the  party,  and  his  elec- 
tion to  the  Lieutenant  Governorship  in  1884  was  followed 
by  his  election  as  Governor  of  Vermont  in  1886.  In  1891 
President  Harrison  appointed  him  on  a  commission  to 
treat  with  the  Pi-Ute  Indians  of  Nevada  for  the  cession 
of  a  part  of  their  reservation,  and  in  1891-1893  he  served 
as  United  States  Land  Commissioner  in  Samoa,  being  sta- 
tioned at  Apia  on  the  Island  of  LTpolo.  Mrs.  Ormsbee  ac- 
companied him  there.  During  their  sojourn  in  Apia  they 
had  many  interesting  experiences,  and  among  the  pleasant 
remembrances  are  those  of  visits  paid  to  Robert  Louis

man  and  Emeline  Loretta  (Cole)  Wadhams,  born  8  June, 
1847,  i''^  Wadhams  Mills,  N.  Y. ;  married  in  Annapolis, 
Md.,  28  February,  1870,  Caroline  Henderson.  She  was 
born  19  July,  1849,  in  Jackson,  Miss.,  daughter  of  Rev. 
Isaac  James  Henderson,  D.  D.,  and  Mary  (Mussina) 
Henderson.  Her  father  was  a  native  of  Natchez,  Miss. 
He  graduated  from  Princeton  Theological  Seminary  and 
was  the  first  pastor  of  the  First  Presbyterian  Church  in 
Galveston,  Texas.  Later,  he  was  for  many  years  pastor 
of  the  Second  Presbyterian  Church  in  New  Orleans,  La., 
where  Mrs.  Wadhams  spent  her  childhood.  About  1862 
the  family  removed  to  New  York  City,  and  she  became  a 
pupil  at  the  Abbott  Collegiate  Institute,  graduating  in 
1866.  The  family  then  removed  to  Annapolis,  Md.,  where 
Rev.  Dr.  Henderson  was  pastor  of  the  Presbyterian

Rouge,  La.,  but  finally  settled  in  Natchez,  Miss.,  in  1787. 
Mrs.  Wadhams  recently  found,  in  her  search  of  the  old 
Spanish  records  in  Natchez,  that  the  name  of  her  grand- 
father, John  Henderson,  appeared  repeatedly  as  one  of 
the  arbitrators  appointed  by  the  Commandant  to  make 
final  decisions  in  certain  cases  of  claims  under  the  old 
Spanish  law.  After  Mississippi  became  a  Territory,  Gov- 
ernor Claibourne  appointed,  in  1802,  this  John  Henderson

was  of  the  same  family  as  Alexander  Henderson  of  Edin- 
burgh, who  was  the  author  of  the  "Solemn  League  and 
Covenant,"  and  who  is  considered,  next  to  John  Knox, 
"the  most  famous  of  Scottish  ecclesiastics." 

Albion  V.  Wadhams  was  appointed  a  Midshipman  at 
the  United  States  Naval  Academy  September  26,  1864. 
At  that  time  the  Academy  was  at  Newport,  R.  I.,  where 
it  had  been  removed  from  Annapolis,  Md.,  soon  after  the 
outbreak  of  the  Civil  War.  The  Academy  was  returned 
to  Annapolis  during  the  summer  of  1865  and,  after  the 
cruise  of  that  year.  Midshipman  Wadhams  reported  at 
Annapolis,  where  he  graduated  in  June,  1868,  completing 
the  regular  four  years"  course.  His  first  sea  duty  after 
graduating  was  in  the  Pacific.  Then  he  cruised  on  the 
China  Station  for  some  years,  and  while  there  took  active 
part  in  an  encounter  with  the  Koreans.  During  this 
cruise  he  was  presented  to  the  Emperor  of  Japan.  Lieu- 
tenant Wadhams  was  then  attached  to  the  North  Atlantic 
Station,  and  afterwards  served  as  instructor  at  the  Naval 
Academy ;  then,  after  serving  for  a  time  with  the  Coast 
Survey,  he  was  ordered  to  the  European  Station  and  was 
present  when  the  English  took  possession  of  Alexandria, 
Egypt.  During  this  cruise  Mrs.  Wadhams  took  her  chil- 
dren and  lived  in  France  and  Italy.  From  1884  to  1886 
he  was  at  the  Washington  Navy  Yard.  His  next  sea 
duty  was  again  on  the  China  Station,  when,  as  Flag  Lieu- 
tenant of  the  Admiral  in  command  of  that  station,  he  met 
many  of  the  highest  officials  in  China  and  Japan.  He  was 
also  presented  to  the  King  of  Korea  while  in  that  coun- 
try. Upon  returning  from  China,  Commander  Wadhams 
was  assigned  as  Inspector  of  Light  Houses,  member  of 
the  Board  of  Inspection  of  Merchant  ships,  and  also  In-

761  Charlotte  S.*  Hine,  daughter  of  Henry  Marsh 
and  Phoebe  (Stanley)  Hine,  born  16  October.  1857,  in 
Great  Barrington,  Mass.;  died  15  August,  1909,  in  Colo- 
rado Springs,  Colo. ;  married  in  1879  Leonard  Eager 
Curtis.  He  was  born  23  July,  1848,  in  Norwalk,  Ohio, 
son  of  Alfred  Smith  and  Elmina  (Wadams)  Curtis. 
His  mother  was  the  daughter  of  Caleb  and  Anna  (Ham- 
mond) Wadams  of  Fleming  Hill,  Cayuga  County,  N.  Y. 
That  Wadams  family  dropped  the  letter  "h"  from  their 
name.  On  the  death  of  his  mother,  when  he  was  about 
a  year  old,  he  was  taken  to  live  with  his  grandfather 
Wadams  and  remained  there  until  1859,  when  he  re- 
turned to  his  father's  home  in  Norwalk,  Ohio. 

Leonard  Eager  Curtis  received  his  early  education  at 
Knox  College,  Galesburg,  111.,  and  was  graduated  from 
Yale  College  in  1872,  and  from  Yale  Law  School  in  1874; 
he  was  admitted  to  the  Bar  of  New  York  in  1874  and 
was  connected  with  the  firms  of  Stanley,  Brown  and 
Clarke,  and  Sedgwick  and  Curtis  until  1880,  when  he 
g-ave  up  the  practice  of  law  to  become  the  Secretary  of 
the  United  States  Electric  Lighting  Company.  After 
becoming  thoroughly  conversant  with  the  details  of  the 
business  and  of  the  special  branch  of  patent  law  con- 
nected with  it,  he  again  returned  to  his  profession,  mak- 
ing a  specialty  of  patent  law.  He  was  for  a  time  a 
member  of  the  firm  of  Denman,  Curtis  and  Page,  and 
later  of  Kerr  and  Curtis.  For  several  years  he  repre- 
sented different  manufacturing  and  electric  companies  in 
numerous  litigated  cases  coming  before  the  United  States 
courts.  In  1896  he  went,  on  account  of  his  health,  to 
Colorado  Springs,  Colo.,  where  he  later  took  up  the  de- 
velopment and  management  of  hydro-electric  plants  un- 
der the  firm  name  of  Curtis  and  Hine.  Their  business 
is  largely  in  Mexico.  Mr.  Curtis  is  Vice-President  and

Hand,  who  commanded  the  battalion,  and  Samuel  North- 
rup,  who  was  one  of  its  members.  All  of  the  five,  except 
Samuel  Northrup,  were  commissioned  officers.  Marcia

of  1897,  and  went  to  sea  at  once  on  the  U.  S.  S.  Texas, 
where  he  served  as  Secretary  and  Aide  to  the  Captain, 
until,  in  the  following  year,  when  there  was  talk  of  war 
with  Spain,  he.  being  anxious  to  command  a  gun  division, 
on  application,  was  detached  from  the  Texas  and  ordered 
to  the  U.  S.  S.  Mayflower,  which  proceeded  to  join 
Admiral  Sampson's  command  at  Key  West,  Fla.,  and 
was  there  when  war  was  declared.  They  were  engaged 
during  the  war  in  the  blockade  of  Havana  and  of  San-

I  Caleb  Wadhams  was  born  14  Januar}-,  1754  (from 
his  family  Bible),  the  place  of  his  birth  and  the  names  of 
his  parents  have  not  been  fomid.  He  died  18  May,  1835, 
in  Scipio,  Cayuga  County,  New  York,  aged  81  years.  He 
married  first,  28  February,  1782,  Eunice  Farr.  They 
were  married  by  Roswell  Hopkins,  a  Justice  of  the  Peace 
in  Dutchess  County,  New  York  (See  published  list  of 
marriages  in  Dutchess  County).  The  marriage  is  also 
recorded  in  "Born,  Married  and  Died  in  Sharon,  Conn.," 
but  as  having  taken  place  in  Dutchess  County,  New 
York.  One  or  both  of  them  may  have  been  living  in 
Sharon  at  that  time.  Deacon  Lewis  Mills  Norton  says, 
in  his  manuscript  records  of  Goshen,  Conn.,  that  de- 
scendants of  the  Wadhams  family  of  Goshen  were  then 
(about  1 841)  living  in  Scipio,  N.  Y.  The  compiler  of 
this  genealogy  has,  however,  after  extended  research, 
failed  to  connect  this  family  with  John  of  Wethersfield. 

In  "Connecticut  Men  in  the  War  of  the  Revolution," 
page  385,  we  find  that  a  Caleb  Waddams,  possibly  this 
one,  served  as  Private  in  Colonel  Erastus  Wolcott's  Regi- 
ment, Sixth  Company,  commanded  by  Captain  Jonathan 
Hale,  of  Glastonbury,  Conn.,  from  January  to  March, 
1776. 

From  the  Bureau  of  Pensions,  Washington,  D.  C,  we 
learn  that  Caleb  Wadhams  enlisted  at  Nine  Partners, 
Dutchess  County,  N.  Y.,  and  served  from  October,  1777, 
to  October,  1781,  in  Colonel  Baldwin's  Continental  Ar- 
tillery A.rtificers,  under  Captains  James  Young,  

Purdy,  and  John  Shepherd.  He  applied  for  a  pension 
June  18,  1832,  which  was  granted.     He  then  resided  in

Scipio,  N.  Y.  He  served  as  a  carpenter,  and  the  tool 
chest  that  he  used  in  the  army  is  now  in  the  possession 
of  one  of  his  descendants,  Mr.  Charles  E.  Ward  of  Penn 
Yan,  N.  Y. 

When  the  census  of  1790  was  taken  Caleb  Wadams 
was  living  in  Freehold,  N.  Y.,  having  in  his  family  two 
males  over  sixteen,  three  males  under  sixteen  and  two 
females.  The  public  records  at  Auburn,  N.  Y.,  show 
that  Caleb  Wadams  of  Unadilla,  N.  Y.,  bought  two  hun- 
dred acres  of  land  in  Scipio,  N.  Y.,  from  Jonathan  Fitch 
of  Unadilla,  January,  28,  1795.  He  bought  and  sold 
land  at  frequent  intervals  from  that  time  until  his  death, 
in  1835.  In  1821  he  sold  land  to  his  son,  Caleb  Wadams, 
Jr.,  of  Scipio. 

His  wife,  Eunice  (Farr)  Wadams,  was  born  28  Feb- 
ruary, 1762,  and  died  13  March,  1813  (from  family 
Bible).  Caleb  Wadams  married  second  Mrs.  Mary 
(Rude)  Hammond,  widow  of  Luthan  Hammond,  who 
died  in  Fleming,  N.  Y.,  in  1806.  She  was  born  30  No- 
vember, 1757,  and  died  4  October,  1832,  She  had  twelve 
children  by  her  first  husband,  one  of  whom,  Anna,  mar- 
ried Caleb  Wadams,  Junior ;  none  by  the  second  mar- 
riage. Caleb  Wadams's  will  was  dated  i  March,  1833, 
in  which  he  mentions  all  of  his  children  by  name.  Ad- 
ministration on  his  estate  was  granted  to  his  sons  John 
and  Archibald.  Descendants  of  this  Caleb  spell  the  name 
Wadams  and  Waddams,  but  none  Wadhams.

540  Wadhams  Genealogy 

William  Wadams  was  Ensign  of  militia  in  Cayuga 
County,  N.  Y.,  in  1808.  After  leaving  that  State  he  lived 
for  awhile  down  on  the  Ohio  River ;  then  in  Southern 
Indiana ;  then  near  Peoria,  111. ;  then  he  went  further 
North  and  lived  in  Galena,  111.,  where  he  built  the  first 
watermill  in  that  section.  He  also  lived  for  a  time  in 
Shullsburg,  Wis.,  but  came  back  into  Jo  Daviess  County, 
111.,  living  in  Apple  River  for  a  while.  He  finally  set- 
tled a  short  distance  southeast  of  there  on  Section  13, 
West  Point  Township,  Stephenson  County,  111.,  where  he 
founded  the  village  of  Waddams  Grove.  William  Wad- 
ams was  a  soldier  in  the  Black  Hawk  War;  his  wife,  with 
several  small  children,  had  to  take  refuge  in  the  log 
fort  at  White  Oak  Springs  to  escape  being  killed  by  the 
Indians.  It  was  after  the  defeat  on  August  2,  1832,  of 
Black  Hawk,  that  William  Wadams  settled  in  Illinois, 
with  his  two  sons,  staking  out  a  claim.  He  was  the  first 
white  settler  in  Stephenson  County  in  that  State.  He 
was  the  first  Justice  of  the  Peace  there  and  was  appointed 
by  the  first  Governor  of  Illinois.  He  was  called  Squire 
Wadams  and  married  the  first  couple  in  that  county. 

From  the  History  of  Stephenson  County,  Illinois,  we 
learn  that  the  first  permanent  house  was  built  in  Stephen- 
son County  in  1832,  by  William  Wadams,  and  was  the 
typical  frontier  log  cabin.  The  trees  were  selected,  cut 
down  and  shaped  into  logs,  notched  near  the  ends.  The 
rafters  and  joints  were  cut  and  split  out  of  the  green  sap- 
lings. The  puncheon  floor  was  of  the  usual  order.  The 
boards  were  rived  on  the  ground  and  the  window  frames 
were  smoothed  up  by  use  of  a  jack  knife.  The  great  fire 
place  occupied  almost  all  of  one  end  of  the  house.  Such 
a  house  could  be  Ixiilt,  as  many  of  them  were,  with  no 
other  tools  than  an  axe  and  an  auger.  A  thatched  log 
barn  was  quickly  built  and  afforded  protection  for  grain 
and  stock.  There  were  no  schools  in  the  first  years  of 
Mr.  Wadams  life  in  Illinois,  but  being  interested  in  the 
education  of  his  children,  he  procured  for  them  the  serv- 
ices of  a  private  teacher.  Mr.  Wadams  was  a  man  of 
upright  character  and  decided  opinions.  In  politics  he 
was  first  a  Whig,  then  a  Republican.     He  was  the  pilot

who  led   the   way    for  many   a   family   into   Stephenson 
County   and   many   a   settler   partook   of  his   hospitality- 
while  on  his  way  to  select  a  claim.     The  record  of  his 
children  is  taken  from  his  family  Bible.

His  mother,  Mercy  Wadham,  died  in  England  in  1875, 


Wadham  Lines  From  England  579 

aged  eighty-seven  years.  He  was  an  expert  railway 
machinist  and  engine  driver  for  the  Great  Western  Rail- 
way Company.  His  son,  William  \  .  Wadham,  writes 
that  his  father  was  frequently  selected  to  run  the  loco- 
motive when  members  of  the  Royal  family  or  of  the  no- 
bility were  traveling  on  that  railway.  He  went  to  France 
to  set  up  engines  for  the  French  Government  and  later, 
about  1855,  settled  in  London,  Canada.  The  son  also 
writes  that  some  ancestor  of  his  father  came  to  America 
many  years  ago  and  that  the  group  of  islands  near  New- 
foundland are  named  for  this  family,  Wadham  Islands.
