ALBANY:

OF
EAST HAMPTON, LONG ISLAND, N. Y.
The land now comprised in the town of East Hampton,
the easternmost town on Long Island, was purchased, in
April, 1648, by Theophilus Eaton, Governor of the New
Haven Colony, and Edward Hopkins, Governor of the
Connecticut Colony, of the sachems of the Manhanset,
Montauket, Corchake (or Cutchogue) and the Shinne-
cock Indian tribes of the eastern part of Long Island,
for and on account of Robert Bond and eight others
associated with him as settlers of the new town. These
nine men were, at the time of the purchase, residents of
the neighboring town of Southampton, the first colony
planted by the English in the State of New York, and
twelve miles to the west of the new settlement. East
Hampton then was a colony of Southampton, the second
one it had sent forth — the first being one to Branford,
Ct., in the preceding year. The nine pioneers imme-
diately had accessions to their numbers from Southold,
on Long Island, and from New Haven and other parts
of what is now Connecticut, and from Massachusetts.
The people were Puritans, and of the same class of men
as the early founders of New England, with all their
faults and virtues. Among them, in 1650, appears the4
GENEALOGY OF THE PARSONS FAMILY.
name of Samuel Parsons, then a young man about
twenty years of age. No record yet discovered informs
us of his parentage or birthplace. The record of his death
in 1714, at the age of 84 years, is all the information that
is left, except the fact that he bore life’s burdens with
his stern brethren, and bequeathed a good name as well
as a goodly inheritance to his family.
No one man can give a complete record of all the
descendants of an emigrant of the seventeenth century.
This genealogy is one derived chiefly from the church
and town records of East Hampton, where the ancestor
of the family founded his home in the New World about
the year 1650. It is of absolute certainty down to the
year 1746, when the Rev. Mr. Nathaniel Huntting ceased
his records on the church books, and Dr. Samuel Buel,
his successor, took up the story. While the former was
always particular to enter the baptism of a child of John
Parsons as the son or daughter of John P., son of Robert
or of Samuel, as the case might be, Mr. Buel always
failed to make this distinction. This fact, where the
John Parsons were so numerous, causes some difficulty
in deciding at times to which family the children are to
be assigned. Other circumstances, as family records and
wills, diminish this liability to error, and this publication,
it is hoped, will so call the attention of those interested
as to make a second edition more correct.
The numbers in the left-hand column are continuous,
and serve to identify the name wherever found. The
numbers in the right-hand column refer back to those in
the left, so that the descent may easily be found. The
index figure at the right of a name denotes the genera-
tion or degree of removal from the pioneer ancestor.
The Roman numerals show the number of children.GENEALOGY OF THE PARSONS FAMILY.

engaged to teach the academy in that place,
which the writer was then attending. No man
more than he won the love of his scholars. He
subsequently studied for the ministry, and was
licensed to preach, and ordained as pastor of
the church at Moriches, by the Presbytery of
Long Island. His ministry was brief, but
eminently successful in building up the church
