PREFACE.
Having in my researches among the ancient and musty records and papers in possession of the old families of King’s County (who have kindly favored me with the use of the same), gathered much genealogical and other information worthy of preservation and of use to future genealogists and historians, I take this method of endeavoring to effect that object, and of preserving the same for the use of the public, hoping that it will prove acceptable. To make the work more complete, the records of the state, county, towns, and churches have been carefully examined, and the name of every resident, and of landholders not resident therein found, inserted. That the work is so perfect as to contain the names of all such, the names of all their children, with correct dates in all cases, is not pretended, but an honest effort has been made to effect this object. Surnames and names of parents are in many cases enclosed in brackets.

Brittan, Nathaniell, (English,) m. in 1660 Anna da. of Nicholas Stillwell; d. in 1683 on S. I. Resided at one period in a house on the Anthony Jansen from Salee patent, which he built when these premises were owned by his father-in-law, probably cultivating a part of the same. De Bruynne, on the purchase of the patent from Stillwell, was required to satisfy Brittan for his house and outbuildings, which appear to have been located on the N.W. side of the plantation, and on the portion De Bruynne sold to Jan Janse Ver Ryn. In 1660 Brittan bought of Hendrick Cornelise his plantation in Fid8 of 25 morgens, as per p. 15^ of Lib. B of FF rec. Apl. 3, 1664, he bought of Albert Albertse (Terhune) his N. U. farm, with the meadows thereunto appertaining, which purchase he applied to the court to declare void or to have a deduction made of ;£ioo, in consequence of the loss of the meadows by the convention at Hempstead of 1665 (convened after the conquest of the colony by the English) deciding that the meadows in question belonged to Gd. After considerable litigation the court decided that a deduction of 500 gl. wampum value should be made, as per p. 496 of Valentine's Manual of 1852. In 1664 he obtained a patent for a tract of 144 A. on S. I., on which he finally settled. In 1665 he was licensed to keep a tap-house (tavern) in the city of N. Y. By the Stoothoff books it appears that at one period he was a dry-goods dealer. Issue:—William, of S. I. in 1701, b. 1661; Nathaniel, of S.

* The following curious entry is copied from Lib. 3 of Gd rec.: “The record of mee James Hubbard: To Certifie mine or any other of his brethren William: John: Henry & Margret wth him selve ye youngest of leaven sonns & Dafters: yet butt five known of here, of our father Henry Hubbard & our mother Margrett: of ye Towne of Langham: in ye Countye of Ruttland yeaman: stands upon ye record of ye regester To be ye 123: Generation: As I have receved by letters in ye yeare 1669: & my Chilldren wth ye Rest of my Bretherens chilldren are ye 124: Generation: wch I James Hubbard of Gravesend on ye wester end of long lie land desired To have Recorded on ye Townes Regester of Gravesend: for his Chilldren To add & to have Respect unto: for there better knowledge of There Relations in ye parts of Urope ye land of England in Cass of There Travells To Those parts.”
Allowing 30 years for a generation, this would carry the genealogy of the family back over 4000 years, or to about the time of Noah’s flood. If there is any foundation for the 123 generations, the inference would be that the ancestors of the Hubbard’s were Jews, for they alone through the Bible trace from Noah to the days of our Saviour, and are the only race who could be supposed to make a pretence of tracing from that period to the present time. There was a James Hubbard, ag. 27, who emigrated from London to S* Christopher’s in 1635, as per p. 80 of Hotten’s Emigrants.

At a town meeting in Flh on the 21st of March, 1695-6, it was unanimously resolved “ that for the time of six following years from the date hereof, noe men shall cutt off or fell any young trees within the limits or bounds of our towne of fflatbush for the use off firewood or burning brick, smith’s coals, or brewing, or such like, upon the penalty off two pieces of eight the first default, and the second double, and further are chosen by the towne people three men, to wit, Jan Van Ditmarse, Stoffel Probasco, and Leffert Pieterse, to run over and stake the meadows, and according so that every one shall be bound to dig his part of ditches over his lott to the breadth of two ffeet and a half, in depth two spades.

* It is claimed by some of the Schenck family that Jan and Roelof Martense Schenck are sons of Marten Schenck of Nydack or Nydeggen, a town about 18 miles southeast from Aix-la-Chapelle; that Marten’s father was Peter Schenck of Nydack, b. in 1547 at Goch, a small town about 10 miles south of Cleves, m. in 1580 Johanna Scherpenzeel; and that this Peter was a brother of the celebrated Marten Schenck, a soldier of fortune and an officer of distinction in the wars of the Low Countries. Without the evidence which has been gathered in Holland of the genealogy of the family, the name would imply a relationship to the soldier and warrior, but it is singular, if this account is correct, that the name of Peter does not appear in the family until th6 fourth generation, when it is well known that it was the custom of the Netherlanders to perpetuate the names of their ancestors, which custom prevails among many of their descendants in this country to this day. These Schencks, according to tradition, owned vessels which traded with the Netherlands, which often, by way of Rockaway Inlet, came into Flatlands or Jamaica Bay to deliver or receive goods from their owners.
There was a “ Wessel Schenck” among the members of the company chartered Oct. 11, 1614, for an exclusive trade of three years with the New Netherlands, as per p. 149 of Vol. I. of Doc. of Col. His.GENEALOGY.

North Holland in the Netherlands; and New Lotts as “ Oostwoud,” from a village of that name near “ Midwoud.” The other towns in Kings Co. (except Bushwick) being named by the first settlers after the localities in the fatherland from which some of them came, the inference appears to be a fair one that it was also the case with Flatbush, especially since at least one of its early settlers came from Hauwert or Hoogwoud, a village in the vicinity of “ Midwoud” and “ Oostwoud.” The earliest document on which Flatbush is designated as Midwout, which has come to the notice of the compiler, is on a grant of land to Jacob Corlaer of Oct. 7, 1652, on p. 129 of Cal. of Dutch His. Man. The name on the early colonial and town records is generally written “Midwout.” The principal exceptions, caused by the peculiar methods of spelling of different town-clerks and others, are that from 1660 to 1680 it appears on the town records as “Midewout,” “Midwoudt,” “Middewout,” “Middwout,” “ Middelwoudt,” “ Middlewout,” and “ Midelwout;” from 1700 to 1712 as “Midwoud;” afterwards as “Midwout” (with the exception of 1760, in which year at least in one case Jeremias, Vanderbilt, the town-clerk, wrote it “ Midderwout”). See pp. 30 and 71 of Lib. A of Flh town rec.; pp. 4, 8£, 17, 19, 30, 31, 42, 43, 45, 49, and 79 of Lib. B; and p. 115 of Lib. A A of do. From about the period of the Revolutionary war the town has been known as “Flatbush,” the former name having been dropped. The name “Flatbush” was, however, occasionally used at an early date; as an instance, it appears on a deed of Nov. 24, 1654, of Dirck Jansen to Cors Van Ruyven, of premises “in Flatbush, otherwise called Midwout,” as per p. 58 of said Cal. of Dutch Man. The name of “ Vlachte Bos” and “ Flackebos,” the Dutch for flat woods or level woods, was also occasionally used.GENEALOGY.	269

Nicholas, the emigrant and ancestor of the Stillwells of this vicinity (English), came to this country about 1638 from Holland, and settled at first on Manhattan I. He m. ist Abagail dau. of Robert Hopton; m. 2d Ann Van Dyke of Holland; d. Dec. 22, 1671, at Dover, S. I. His wid. m. 2d Wm Wilkins. In 1639 he located a tobacco plantation on Manhattan I., and in 1643 purchased a house and lot on the present Beaver St. in N. A. When the Lady Mody in 1643, accompanied by several Englishmen from Massachusetts, undertook the settlement of Gd (“ Graoenzande”), he with other Englishmen who had previously settled on Manhattan I. joined her and took up lots in the new settlement. In the Indian war which took place shortly after the commencement of the settlement, and caused its temporary abandonment, as Lieut. Stillwell he defended the place, and afterwards appears to have returned to N. A. In 1648 he bought of Richard Dunn the village lot in Gd which Dunn had bought of Ralph Cardell, this being the first account of his owning land in said town after its abandonment during the Indian war, his name not appearing among the associates who in 1646, ’47, and’48 were allotted plantation-lots of 50 A. Oct. 6,1649, he bought of George Homes, for his s. Richard, Homes's plantation-lot, for which he agreed to pay 900 lb. of good merchantable tobacco. This plantation he agreed Oct. 10, 1650, to sell to Richard Cluffe for the use of Thomas Doxsey. By O’Callaghan’s Register he was a mag. of Gd in 1650 and ’51, a mag. of Fid8 in 1654 and '55, where he probably resided at that date, and a mag. of Gd in 1657 and ’64. Dec. 27, 1657, he sold to John Bowne 12 A. lying on the “ Cellers Neck” (Sellers Neck), being part of plantation-lot No. 40, which lot No. 40 he bought Aug. 25, 1654, of the agent of William Hallet. Aug. 29, 1659, he sold John Wilson a part of plantation-lot No. 40—all as per Gd rec. Feb. 9, 1660, he bought of Anthony Jansen from Salee his patent of 100 morgens. Apl. 2,1660, he sold to Richard Aste 12 A. of the E. end of the plantation he bought of Anthony Johnson, as per Gd rec. Jan. 15, 1663, he sold to Mr. Francoys de Bruynrie, for 700 gl. in wampum, the balance of said plantation; reasonable satisfaction to be made by said Francoys to “ my son in law Nathaniell Brittanie at or upon the 25th of March next for the house and housing which hee the said Nathaniell built upon said land.” All the above Gd and N.

Stillwell is entitled to credit for never swerving from his allegiance to the Dutch government, which is more than can be said of many of his English neighbors, who, on what they supposed to be the first favorable opportunity, proved themselves to be traitors to the colony to which they fled from persecution, and to which they were indebted for protection and the enjoyment of religious liberty. In 1663 he was an ensign in the Esopus expedition against the Indians, and the same year commissioned as lieut.., as per Col. Man. He finally removed to Dover, S. I., where he d.

Made his mark to manuscripts with a bungling reversed “ N,” in no manner resembling that which would be made by a scholar with his left hand, who had had the misfortune of losing his right one as has been claimed. Dr. J. E. Stillwell of N. Y., in belialf of the claim that Nicholas made his mark in consequence of the loss of his right arm, has exhibited to the compiler of this work an original and genuine document (stating that he had seen another) on which his name was subscribed in full in a good and legible hand. Against this evidence are documents of a prior date, with numerous ones later, with the bungling mark, from which it may fairly be inferred that the name on the document exhibited had been written by some other person at Nicholas’s request, as is occasionally done at the present day.
