The present volume is the result of labors instituted by Ebenezer Mack Treman and carried on for some time during the years 1893-4, and partially abandoned for several years, owing to the pressure of business duties, to be finally revived in igoi, and carried to a suc- cessful conclusion, with the assistance of Murray E. Poole. The latter can not refrain, in this connection, from expressing to the former his sincere thanks for the encouragement which he has ever received in the prosecution of the work, and desires further to bear testimony to his colleague's strong love of family and pride in its achievements and to his public spirit and generosity in providing this family memorial. An earnest, and we hope successful, attempt has been made to gather together, in this volume, the widely scattered family records. As the years go by they will become more and more valuable. It is hoped that the members of the family will take great care in preserving family records. If this work brings the various members of the family into closer communication, one of its objects will be attained. Its value as a contribution to local history must necessarily be great, while it is an authentic record which may some time prove of great value in enabling some member of the family to establish his right in the courts of law to an inheritance, or before the Interior Department to a pension for war service, or to prove eligibility to membership in the hereditary patriotic societies. Gene- alogy, once interesting to a few, has become a popular study. In the early days of few newspapers and with books seldom indexed, one 6 Preface. would seldom meet, in print, his family name ; nowadays the news- papers print long lists of names of individuals and a book of an his- torical character without an index' is a rarity. Historical, biographical and directory publishing companies also provide many sources of genealogical information. The plan of this book is so simple as to need no explanation. The price is placed at actual cost. If any mistakes occur, and it is almost impossible to prevent them, in the thousands of names and dates, it is hoped that they will be reported for correction in some future edition. If any names have been omitted, it is regretted, as an effort was made to include every person bearing the family name or related to the family by intermar- riage. We desire especially to thank those who have furnished information.' EBENEZER MACK TREMAN, MURRAY E. POOLE. Ithaca, N. Y. Il^TRODUCTIO:^^. The Treman, Tremaine, Truman family is of Norman origin. The first ancestor of the family in England came over from France with William the Conqueror. The original family name Tremayne, meaning three hands, was of Norman origin. The meaning of the name was lost and then from losing its meaning it gradually became converted into another name that had another meaning. This was not a very unusual occurrence in family names and can not be explained philologically. The change came by modifipation and use. The first of the name of whom we have any knowledge was Perys Tremayne who resided in Cornwall, England, in the reign of Edward III. (1312-1377.) His descendants were seated in Corn- wall for many generations. There is an old saying "By Tre, Pol and Pen, you may know the Cornish men." The first of the family bearing a different name, of whom we have any knowledge, was Rev. Henry Trewman, instituted rector of Cromwell, Nottingharri- shire, England, July 27, 1635. His successor was Rev. Joseph Tru- man, D. D. The meaning of this name was, obviously, true man. An explanation of the change of name is found in the original pro- nounciation of the names Tremayne and Truman, the letter "u" in Truman having the sound of French "u" which is the sound of English "e", showing that the two names sounded very much alike. The Anglo-Saxons spelled the name Trcewman, meaning wood-man. In America the name appears Treman, Tremaine and Truman. As illustrating how families re-adopt the old name it may bcNjnentioned that many of the grandsons of Joseph Truman, the first American ancestor, remembering the family tradition that the old family name was Tremayne, adopted the old name Tremaine, as the name was spelled Tremayne and Tremaine in the olden time in England.

Upon the elevation of Elizabeth to the throne, he returned from exile, and, visiting his college, had the honour of receiving both degrees of divinity at once, on 15 Feb., 1565. Dr. Tremayne subsequently removed to Gates Hall, and thence passed within a short period into his own county, being instituted Canon Residentiary of St. "Peter's, Exeter, and Treasurer of that church.

(From "The Homes- of Family Names in Great Britain," by Henry Brougham Guppy.) "Cornwall." One of the oldest and most distinguished families of Tremayne is that of Heligan. This name recalls more than one deed of daring The Tremayne Family in England. 13 in which the Cornish Tremaynes have taken part. During the reign of Pendennis, in Cromwell's time, Lieutenant Colonel Tremayne of Helligan escaped by swimming through the enemy's fire from one of the blockhouses to Trefuse's Point. A branch of the Tremaynes of Cornwall has been seated in Lamberton, Devon, for many centuries, (Worthy's Devonshire Parishes.) (From the Book of Dignities.) John Tremayne, Common Sergeant, 1383 ; Recorder of the City of London, 1389-1392. John Tremayne, King's Sergeant May I, 1689. (From Legends, Superstitions and Sketches of Devonshire on THE BORDERS OF THE SaMAR AND SaVY, BY MrS. BraY.) "In the parish of Lamerton, three miles from Tavistock, is CoUa- combe, an old house that for generations was the seat of the Tre- maines (in their origin a Cornish family). Before the marriage CoL Arthur Tremaine with Bridget Hatherleigh induced them to remove to the more splendid mansion of Sydenham. When we visited the church we were much pleased with viewing the old monuments there existing of the family of Tremaine. But before I speak of the twin brothers I must say a few words of their father and family. Our great ancestors in the reign of Richard II. founded an hospital at the west end of the town of Tavistock and dedicated it to St. George. Thornas Tremaine, the parent of the twins, had eight sons and as many daughters. Ekimund, the second son, was the devoted fol- lower of Edward, Earl of Devon and Marquis of Exeter, and suffered severely by his unshaken attachment to that nobleman during his many troubles. He was by order of Queen Mary racked in the Tower of London in the hope he would reveal enough to prove the guilt of the Marquis, but no torture could compel him to accuse the innocent or betray the confidences of his friend. The Queen did not forget the fidelity he had evinced under such a cruel test, as on her accession to the throne she rewarded Edmund by making him one of the Clerks of the Privy Council. The family of Tremaines is of ancient standing. Their arms consist of three united arms with clinched hands, and two hands above support a Saracen's head as the crest. 14 History of the Treman Family. The hall window of Collacombe House has 3545 small panes of glass in it. We visited the interesting old house of Sydenham commenced in the time of Elizabeth and finished in that of James I. The mansion is built in the shape of the letter E. One of the gables has been despoiled of its beautiful old windows and common modern ones put in — supposed to have been the whim of a certain old Mr. Tremaine, the father of the late possessor of Sydenham, who was born in 1708 and died in 1808. Sydenham was garrisoned for King Charles and taken by the parliamentary forces in January, 1645. Among the pictures in one of the apartments was the sister of the former Mr. St. John, who acted in concert with Hampden and Pymir during the rebellion. This lady was by marriage connected with the family of Tremaine. Over the chimney piece is the portrait of the gallant Col. Arthur Tremaine who lived to see the monarchy for which he fought and bled restored, and to wed with fair mistress Bridget Hatherleigh, who at that period had become for want of male issue the heiress of Sydenham. Bridget was grand-daughter of Sir Thomas Wise and by her marriage with the brave Col., the house and lands of Sydenham came to the family of Tremaine. Mr. Tre- maine, the present worthy and respected proprietor, does not often reside in this princely but decaying mansion. He inherited it by will from the last old gentleman dying unmarried, who, though he had never seen him, left it on account of his being the same name and being the younger branch of the family with whom, however, he had kept up no communication. Nicholas and Andrew Tremaine were twin sons of the afore named Thomas Tremaine, born at Collacombe House in Lamerton. They were of such close resemblance in feature and gesture that they could not be known the one from the other by their own parents or friends. They wore a knot of colored ribbons to distinguish them. In 1563 they bore arms among the English forces sent into France, the one as Captain of Horse, the other as a volunteer. In one of the engagements near Newhaven, now Havre de Grace, they stood side by side. At last one fell and the other immediately took his place and shared his brother's fate. The monument in Lamberton Church is that of their family. The Tremayne Family in England. 15 The following epitaph on Nicholas and Andrew appears inscribed on a tablet of marble with several rude rhymes to the memory of the same race : These likened twins in form and fancy one, Were like affected and like habits chose. Their valor at Newhaven seige was known, When both encountered fiercely with their foes. Then one of both sore wounded lost his breath, And t'other slain revenging brother's death." The Tremaynes are said to come from Sydenham. (This is Sydenham Damerel, 4 miles N. W. of Tavistock in Devon.) There is now no parish of St. Martin on the banks of Helford (? Milford) Haven. Tremain is a parish 4 miles N. E. of Cardigan, Wales. Tremaine is a parish 6 miles N. W. of Launceston, Cornwall. St. Martin is 6 1-2 miles S. of Liskean, Cornwall.

(From Moore's View or Devonshire.) THE FAMIIvY OF THE TREMAYNES. The ancient family of Tremayne, originally of Cornwall, settled in Devonshire in consequence of a marriage with the heiress of Trenchard of CoUacombe in the parish of Lamerton, where for many generations was the chief seat of the family. The mansion, now used as a farmhouse, is of the style of the Elizabethan age, and in the parish church are some of their monuments. *His will dated Oct, 27, 1576, proved 15 Dec, 1584. His widow Joan's will made at Ugbrooke 24 April, isgr, proved 25 July, 1593. The Tremayne Family in England. 17 It is impossible here to enter into genealogical details and for these we must refer to Prince, nor can we do more than briefly notice the most distinguished individuals. Wescot, in his manuscript View of Devonshire, informs us that one of this ancient family, whose Christian name he does not men- tion, founded an hospital in the western part of Tavistock in the reign of Richard II. and dedicated it to St. George. But the most remarkable instances of distinguished individuals occur in the family of Thomas Tremayne, Esq., who had sixteen children, eight sons and eight daughters by his wife Philippa, who twice had twins. Their second son, Edmund, was servant to the Marquis of Exeter, when he was thrown into the Tower, and was put on the rack, with the view of extorting from him some confession ; nothing, however, was elicited from him ; and for his firmness on this occasion, when Elizabeth came to the throne he was made one of the Clerks of the Council. He also had an honorary salary settled upon him by the city of Exeter, for the good offices which they had received from him, and expected. Richard, the fourth son and eldest of the first twins, was edu- cated for the church at Exeter College, Oxford, and being deprived of his fellowship there, on account of his firm attachment to Protestant principles in the reign of Mary, he fled into Germany, but on the accession of Elizabeth, he returned to his college, where he received both his degrees in divinity at once. He was afterwards made Canon residentiary of Exeter Cathedral and also Treasurer of that church. He likewise became Vicar of Menheniot in Cornwall, and was esteemed an excellent preacher in his time. He died without issue in 1584. Nicholas and Andrew were the second twins, then follows account of their similarity and death at Newhaven (Havre de Grace). The most remarkable monument in Lamerton Church of the Tremayne family is that of Thomas Tremayne, wife Philippa and sixteen children.* *Richard and Nicholas Tremayne proclaimed traitors in 1556.

Edmund Tremayne (d. 1582), Clerk of the Privy Council, was second son of Thomas Tremayne, of Collacombe, Lamerton, Devon- shire, where the Devonshire branch of this old Cornish family had been established since 1366. His mother was Philippi, eldest daughter of Roger Grenville, of Stowe. Of this marriage were born sixteen children, of whom four — Edmund, Richard and the twins, Nicholas and Andrew — acquired some reputation. The twins Andrew and Nicholas were strikingly alike, physically and mentally. The elder, Andrew, fled with Sir Peter Carew, on 25 Jan., 1554, and both were imprisoned on suspicion of piracy on 24 Feb., 1555, but escaped to France where they were pensioned by the French King, They were also implicated in the Sir Anthony Kingston plot in 1556. After Elizabeth's accession they entered her service. Andrew led a brilliant cavalry charge against the French at Leith in April, 1560, and was killed at Newhaven (Havre) on 18 July, 1562. Nicholas, who seems to have been a special favourite of Elizabeth, was fre- 20 History of the Treman Family. quently employed in carrying important despatches between France and England, and distinguished himself at the siege of Newhaven where he was killed on 26 May, 1562. Edmund entered the service of Edward Courtenay, Earl of Devonshire, in the autumn of 1553, but was committed to the Tower in February or March following, on suspicion of being concerned in Wyatt's rebellion. He was racked during the time Elizabeth was a prisoner in the Tower (Fox) but would not implicate her or Courtenay, his master. On Friday,' 18 Jan., 1855, he was released with Sir Gawen Carew, the three sons of the late Duke of Northumberland and others. His fine (40 I.), was the lowest enforced. Tremayne seems to have joined Courtenay in Italy. Courtenay wrote from Venice on 2 May, 1556, "I am sorry for Tremayne's foohsh departure, albeit satisfied and content there- with as he shall well perceive, but I trust the cause thereof will prove as you have written." This probably means that the Earl thought it foolish of Tremayne to leave England and lay himself open to a charge of treason. Courtenay died at Padua on 18 Sept., 1556, and it is possible that Tremayne entered the service of Francis, Earl of Bedford, who was in Venice in 1557. The appointment he received in 1561 of Deputy Butler for Devonshire must have been through the influence of the Earl of Bedford, then lord lieutenant of Devonshire. Tremayne spent some time at Elizabeth's court, and Burghley thought so highly of him that in July, 1569, he sent him on a special mission to Ireland, "to examine into the truth and let him know quietly the real condition of the country." Tremayne remained in Ireland until the close of 1569, writing frequently to Cecil on Irish affairs. On 3 May, 1 57 1, he was sworn clerk of the Privy Council at Westminster. He wrote in June a paper entitled "Causes why Ireland is not Reformed," which was endorsed by Burghley with the words, "a good advice." Tremayne was returned M. P. for Plymouth (1572) with John Hawkyns. In June he drew up, with Lord Burghley, an important document, "Matters wherewith the Queen of Scots may be charged," from which Burghley's signature was afterwards erased. Tremayne succeeded to the family estates on his elder brother's death on 13 March, 1572. He still maintained a special interest in Irish affairs, and revisited the country late in 1573. (See "Instructions given to Mr. E. Tremayne upon his being sent to the Lord Deputy of Ireland by the Lord Treasurer," 1573, in Lambeth MSS.) The Tan Tremayne Famii^y in Kngland. 21 City of Exeter granted Tremayne in 1574 a reversion to Sir Gawen Carew's pension of 40 1. "in reward of their good services done this city." (Isaacke.) Carew outlived Tremayne, so the latter never benefited by the grant. The family mansion of CoUacombe was altered and enlarged by him; the date 1574 still appears with the family arms and those of his royal mistress in the great hall. Tre- mayne was in 1578 senior of the four clerks to the Privy Council, but he chiefly resided in Devonshire, where he acted as commissioner for the restraint of grain and held other local offices. On 24 Oct., 1580, the Queen wrote from Richmond commanding him to assist Francis Drake in sending to London bullion brought into the realm by Drake, but leaving ten thousand pounds' worth in Drake's hands. This last instruction "to be kept most secret to himself alone." Tre- mayne made his will 17 Sept., 1582. The Earl of Bedford wrote to announce his death to Burghley a few days later. Burghley, in reply, described Tremayne as "a man worthy to be beloved for his honesty and virtues." In September, 1576, he married Eulalia, daughter of Sir John St. Leger ot Annery. A son Francis, named after Tre- mayne's "Good Lord" Bedford, lived for only six weeks after his father, and at his death the estates passed to Degory, Edmund's third brother. Degory erected in 1588 a fine monument to his five brothers, Roger, Edmund, Richard and the twins, with their effigies well modelled and lifelike. Edmund appears as an elderly man with a refined and thoughtful face. Tremayne's "Discourses on Irish Affairs'' remain unprinted among the Cottonian manuscripts at the British Museum. Richard Tremayne (d. 1584), younger brother of Edmund, was fourth son (the younger of twins) of Thomas Tremayne. He was sent to Exeter College, Oxford, where he graduated B. A. in 1547-8. He was elected a fellow on March 28, 1553, and proceeded M. A. on July 17. He vacated his fellowship by flying to Germany in the first year of Mary's reign. On his epitaph he is stated to have "fled for the gospel's sake." He was at Louvain on Nov. f.6, 1555, acting as tutor to Sir Nicholas Arnold's son. He was reckoned among the conspirators against the Queen, and on April 4, 1556, was declared a traitor with his brother Nicholas and others who were concerned in Sir Anthony Kingston's plot. Tremayne returned to England very soon after Elizabeth's accession, and was favourably regarded at 22 History of the Treman Family. court. He was made Archdeacon of Chichester by Elizabeth on April 7, 1559. Cecil had some correspondence with Sir Nicholas Throckmorton, ambassador in France, regarding Tremayne's employ- ment in the diplomatic service, "he having the high Dutch tongue very well." But he stayed at home, and was ordained deacon by Grindal, Bishop of London, on Jan. 25, 1560. He had been re- elected fellow of his college on Oct. 17, 1559, but vacated his fellow- ship by absence the ensuing May. He was also presented by the college to the vicarage of Menheniot (Carew), and was installed treasurer of Exeter Cathedral on Feb. 10, 1560. For reasons not stated in the "Bishop's Register" he was deprived of his treasurer- ship, but re-installed on Oct. 27, 1561, and held the office until his death. He became rector of Doddiscombleigh on Jan. 15, 1561, holding the living until 1564, when he resigned. Tremayne was something of a puritan. He sat in convocation as proctor for the clergy of Exeter, and signed the Canons establishing the Thirty-nine Articles. On Feb. ,13 he spoke, and gave his two votes in favor of sweeping alterations in the Book of Common Prayer. He was elected fellow of Broadgate's Hall (afterwards Pembroke College) , Oxford, on Feb. 20, 1565. On Feb. 15, 1566, he took the degree of B.D., proceeding D.D. on April 26. He became rector of Combe- Martin in 1569, and the Earl of Bedford vainly recommended him on July 23, 1570, to Cecil for the vacant bishopric of Exeter. Tre- mayne was buried on Nov. 30, 1584, at Lamerton, and his will proved on Dec. 15 at Exeter. On Sept. 19, 1569, he married Joanna, daughter of Sir Piers Courtenay of Ugbrooke. His only child, Mary, married Thomas Henslowe. He gave to Exeter College a copy of the polyglot Bibles in eight volumes, printed by Christopher Plantin at Antwerp, 1569-72, at the command of Philip II. Sir John Tremayne or Tremaine (d. 1694), lawyer, eldest son of Lewis Tremayne, Lieutenant Governor of Pendennis Castle, who married Mary, daughter and co-heiress of John Carew of Penwarne in Mevagissey, was bom in the parish of St. Ewe, Cornwall. He was brought up to the study of the law, by 1678 was a man to be consulted, and soon acquired considerable practice. His name fre- quently occurs in cases before the House of Lords from 1689 to 1693; he was counsel for the crown against Sir Richard Graham, otherwise Lord Preston, and others for high treason, January 1690-1, The Tremayne Family in England. 23 was engaged for Sir John Germaine in the action brought against that adventurer by the Duke of Norfolk for adultery with the duchess, and he acted for the Crown on the trial of Lord Mohun, a brother Cornishman, for the murder of Mountford, the actor, January, 1693. Tremayne was called with others to be Sergeant-at-law on May I, 1689, was made King's sergeant, and next day took the oaths, when he and his colleagues entertained the "nobility, judges, ser- geants, and others with a dinner at Sergeant's Inn in Fleet Street," London. He was Knighted at Whitehall on Oct. 31, 1689, and in 1690 was returned to Parliament for the Cornish borough of Tre- gony. In June, 1692, he was a candidate for the recordership of London, but was beaten at the poll. It is recorded by Luttrell on Feb. 20, 1694, that Tremayne was dead. He died issueless. His brother's descendant now lives at Heligan, near Mevagissey (where the Sergeant rebuilt the family mansion), and inherits the ample estates in Cornwall and Devon. His useful volume, "Placita Coronae or Pleas of the Crown in matters Criminal and Civil," was published in 1723, many years after his death, when it had been "digested and revised by the late Mr. John Rice of Furnival's Inn." An English translation by Thomas Vickers came out in two volumes at Dublin in 1793. A collection by Tremayne of "Entries, declarations and pleadings" in the reigns of Charles II. and James II., numbering in all 182 pages, is at the British Museum. Joseph Truman (1631-1671), ejected minister and metaphysi- cian, son of Richard and Mary Truman, was born at Gedling, near Nottingham, and baptized there on Feb. 2, 1631. His father, who held some public post in the place, got into difficulties by speaking disrespectfully of the "Book of Sports." Joseph was educated first by the minister of Gedling,, and afterwards at the free school at Not- tingham. He was admitted a pensioner at Clare College, Cambridge, on June 9, 1647, proceeded B.A. in 1650, and M.A. in 1654. He was made rector of Cromwell near Nottingham (probably by the Assembly of Divines, as his name does not appear on the institution books), some time after Dec. 4, 1656, when the former "minister of Cromwell" (Henry Trewman, instituted July 27, 1635), was buried. The similarity in the two names (or possibly identity with a variation in the spelling) suggests a family connection. After the passing of the Act of Uniformity in 1662, Truman, according to Calamy, 24 History of the Treman Family. declined to read the whole of the service in the Book of Common Prayer, because, he said, there were "Ues in it" ; to prove his asser- tion, he quoted the collect for Christmas Day, and pointed out that not only was the birth of Christ stated to have taken place that day, but also on the following Sunday. The collect is said to have been amended in consequence, but in reality it had been altered by the Savoy Conference in 1661. Truman's successor in the rectory was instituted on Nov. 3, 1662. After his ejectment he resided in Ma:ns- field in order to be near his friend Robert Porter, and always attended the services of the estabhshed church. He refused, however, all offers of preferment, was frequently indicted for non-conformity, and was once unsuccessfully sued to an outlawry. He died at Sutton in Bedfordshire on July 19, 1671, and was buried in the chancel of the church there on July 21. In i66g Truman published anonymously his first work, "The Great Propitiation," in which he endeavored to explain the Apostle Paul's theory of justification without works. He attached to his work (also anonymously) "A Discourse Concerning the Apostle Paul's meaning of 'Justification by Faith,' " in which he maintained that it was not intended "to exclude repentance and sin- cere obedience from being a condition of our justification," but that they were indeed included in the meaning of the word "faith." "The Great Propitiation" reappeared in London in 1671, 1672, and 1843. On the appearance early in 1670 of Bishop Bull's "Harmonia Apos- tolica," Truman felt that many of his positions were seriously assailed, and commenced at once to write an answer in English for private circulation. It was, however, published anonymously under the title of "An Endeavour to rectify some prevailing Opinions con- trary to the Doctrine of the Church of England" (London, 1671). Truman's main contention was the all-sufficiency of the Mosaic law, which, he argued, was able not only to work true sanctification in man, but if rightly interpreted, to insure eternal life. Interpreted as a law of grace, it was no type or shadow, but the very gospel itself, to which the Sermon on the Mount had added nothing essential, and which remained in force to the present day. In the same year (167 1) Truman, still with Bull's views in mind, published anonymously "A Discourse of Natural and Moral Impotency," in which he contended that whereas natural inability excuses from blame or guilt in propor- tion to its extent, moral inability aggravates it in like proportion. The Tremayne Family in England. 25 consisting as it does in aversion of the will. The book was re- published with the writer's name in 1675 and again in 1834. Bull answered Truman at some length in his "Examen Censurae," pp. 149 et seq. Truman's writings all exhibit close, subtle argumentation. He was a man of unusual learning and untiring diligence and industry. (From Alumni Oxonienses.) Samuel TrewmaNj'sou of Sam., of Westerly, Co.

Dear Sir — Your note of the 5th inst. to Mr. Greenlaw has been forwarded to me by him for reply, and has just reached me at this place where I am detained at the deathbed of a near relative — a fact which must plead my excuse for a hurried and incoherent reply. I should be very pleased to undertake your case and use my best efforts to solve it for you. For the next two or three days my address will be as above, after that at my home at South Freeport, Maine, where letters will always reach me. Truman, Treeman, Tremaine, etc., are probably all variants of a common name and you are no doubt correct in attributing its origin to Cornwall, where it is well known. You are probably familiar with the Tremaine pedigree as given in Col. Vivian's Cornwall Visitations, which book, while not strictly reliable, is very useful as a guide. I have a good correspondent in Devonshire who can obtain Exeter wills (covering Cornwall) without traveling expense from London, quite an item. Please give me all possible detail known of Joseph Truman and his family on which to base my quest. Do you wish detailed report of search or simply the sifted results of value ? Awaiting your further advice in the matter I remain. Sir, Yours faithfully, J. Henry Lea. ]PmsT GrE:NrEii^Tio]^^. JOSEPH TRUMAN OF NEW LONDON, CONN. (1666.) I. Joseph Truman. His ancestors lived anciently in Corn- wall, England. He was born in Nottinghamshire, England. He marjied in England but neither his wife's name, nor the name of her family, has yet been ascertained. He appeared with his wife, and perhaps some of his children, at New London, Conn., in 1666. In the following year he was chosen Constable, a position of considerable honor in those days. He purchased in 1667 from Alex. Piggins, and about 1670 from Hugh Roberts, some pits for tanning, which were located in a meadow near the entrance of Cape Ann Lane. Truman Brook and Truman Street are named after him and his family. He had two tanneries, one at each end of this street on Truman Brook, The brook ran into Bream Cove near the Hempstead lot. He appears as plaintiff in law suits in Oct., 1682 ; May, 1683 ; Oct., 1683, and May, 1685. He died in 1697 at New London, Conn. In his will, executed in Sept., 1696, he mentions four children, Joseph, Thomas, Elizabeth and Mary, his daughter Ann having died before the will was made. In a note-book, now in the possession of Lucy E. Greene of Denver, Col., which was owned by her great-grand- father, Jonathan Truman, appears the following entry in 1822 : "Jonathan Truman, owner of this book, is the son of Jonathan Tru- man, born at New London, June 25, 1736. He was the son of Thomas Truman who was also born at New London. His father who was named Joseph, came to America from England (Notting- hamshire), in company with a brother who settled in Virginia. He left at New London two sons, Joseph and Thomas, and a number of daughters. Public Records of the Colony of Connecticut say : "Trueman, Joseph. Oct., 1682. Whereas Joseph Trueman has 30 History of the Treman Family. cotnplayned to this Court that he is greatly prejudiced by an execution that was served upon John Higly, for a judgment of court he recovered against him at New London, September 20th, '81, for 26 galons of Rume and cost of court, one pound ten shillings and sixpence, the execution being levyed upon two hundred seventy one yardes of old statute lace, and apprized to answer the judgment. — The Court having veiwed the execu- tion and the lace cannot judg it of a quarter of the value of the judgment, and therefore that righteousness may be attended in this case doe order that the Marshall doe return the lace to the sayd Higly, and that he demand him to prsent the estate granted by judg- ment, and in defect or want of that estate some other good and pasable estate he is to present for execution, and if he doe refuse to make such presentation, the Marshall is to levy the execution upon the body of the sayd Higly ; and this Court appoynts Mr. John Loomys and Tho. Stoton and Mr. John Fyler to be apprizers of what shall be seized by execution." "Trueman, Joseph. May, 1683. In answer to John Higley's request. This Court haveing October last, ordered a new execution to goe out against Higley's estate to answer a judgment of court Joseph Trueman obteyned against Mr. Higley at New London court, Septr 20, 1681. This Court doe now see reason to repeale the former order for a new execution and doe grant Joseph Trueman liberty to prosecute his case against John Higley, by way of appeale, at the Court of Assistants, October next." "Trueman, Joseph. Oct., 1683. Upon the petition of Mr. Steven Richardson that he might have liberty to appeale from the judgment of the county court at New London, June last, wherein Joseph Trueman was plntf. against him. This Court haveing considered the petition of Mr. Richardson, and findeing that that Court where Mr. Richardson did reveiw to, fell, by the providence- of God, This Court grants that Mr. Richardson should have liberty to appeale from the afoarsd judgment of the court, to the next Court of Assistants in May, providing he enter his appeale in the records of the court of New London and give the sayd True- man timely notice thereof." "Trueman, Joseph. May, 1685. In answer to the motion of First Generation. 31 Richard Edwards, this Court grants Joseph Trueman liberty to prosecute John Higly at the Court of Assistants in October next." History of New London, Conn., Caulkins, 1852, says: "Truman, Joseph. Hugh Roberts was a tanner, and had his pits or vats in a meadow near the entrance of Cape Ann Lane. His establishment was purchased about 1670, by Joseph Truman." "Truman, Joseph. Persons who are mentioned as inhabitants. In 1667, appear John Baldwin, Peter Treby, Joseph Truman and John Wheeler."

Joseph Truman died in 1697. Joseph Truman came to New London in 1666, and was chosen constable the next year. Truman's Brook and Truman Street are names derived from him and his family. He had a tannery at each end of this street on Truman's Brook and the brook which ran into Bream Cove, near the Hemp- stead lot. In his will, executed in September, 1696, he mentions four children : Joseph, Thomas, Elizabeth and Mary. Neither his marriage, nor the births of his children are in the town registry." Savage's Genealogical Dictionary says : "Joseph Truman, New London 1666, constable 1667, died in 1697, made his will in Sept. 1696, mentions children Joseph, Thomas, Elizabeth, Mary and Ann, all perhaps born before he went thither.

Jonathan Brewster, Assistant, and Lucrecia Oldham, of New London, son of Elder William and Mary Brewster of Plymouth Colony.) She was born March 26, 1677, at New London. He was a tanner. It is recorded that Joseph Truman and others received a grant of land Oct. 14, 1704, from the Governor and Company of the General Court, by authority of Letters Patent, to them given by Charles II, dated April 23, 1663. An order was made, April 10, 17 11, by the Governor and Council to pay him a sum of money out of the treasury of the colony. Also another order in Sept., 17 11, on the treasurer of the colony, to pay him for leather furnished to the colony for shoes for the soldiers in the Indian wars. He was a constable in 1724. He was sent by the people of New London to Gov. J. Talcott, Dec. 28, 1730, to obtain money from the treasury of the colony to build a battery at New London. Colonial Records of Connecticut say : "Truman, Joseph. 1710. At a meeting of the Governour and Council in New London, Sept. the 29th, 17 10.

Connecticut in the Revolution says of him : "David Truman. Enlisted May 26, 1777, for the term of the war, in Capt. Ezekiel Sanford's Company of Redding, Conn., in Col. Philip Burr Bradley's Rfld. Reg. (See David Freeman. Don't seem to be certain of Truman or Freeman.)" Record of service of Connecticut men, in the War of the Revo- lution, War of 18 12, and Mexican War, compiled by authority of the General Assembly, Hartford, 1889, says: "Fifth Regiment 'Connecticut Line.' Formation of 1777-1781, Regiment raised for the 'Continental Line' of '77, to continue through the War. Recruited largely in Fairfield and Litchfield Counties with men from all parts of the state. Rendezous Danbury ; went intO' camp at Peekskill in spring of '77 and in September ordered to Pennsylvania with McDougal's brigade. Engaged in the battle of Germantown, Oct. 4th, '77, and suffered some loss. Assigned to 62 History of the Treman Family. Huntington's Brigade and wintered at Valley Forge '77-'78. On June 28, '78, present at battle of Monmouth and went into camp at Redding '78-'79. In operation of '79 served in Heath's wing east of the Hudson ; its Light Co. under Capt. St. John detached to Meigs's Light Regt. Wintered at Morristown, '79-'8o, and in the following summer served in Conn. Division with main army on both sides of the Hudson. Wintered '8o-'8i at 'Camp Connecticut', village near Robinson's House opposite West Point ; there consoli- dated for formation of '8o-'83." "Name, David Trueman. Company, Capt. Sanford's. Enlist- ment, May 26, 1777. Term, War. Remarks, See David Freeman." "David Freeman, Company Sanford, enlisted May 26, 1777, for the War. Second Regiment 'Connecticut Line', David Freeman, paid from January ist, '81 to Dec. 31st, '81. This David Freeman (or Trueman) was a private, and the status is that this (regimt) formed from the Fifth and Seventh Regiments of previous formation." Again on page 364, under "Size Roll of Capt. Robinson's Com- pany, Feb. ist, 1783," is David Freeman. Resides Middletown. Enlisted May 24, 1777 for the War. (This is evidently not the David Freeman of the first- quotation.) And again, on page 496 there is a David Freeman in Capt. Shepherd's Company which marched March 31st, 1777, and was discharged May 19th. This also not likely the first David Freeman. Again page 634, in the list of pensioners is David Freeman, private, on the pension roles in 1818. This ends the clear references' relating to David Freeman, to which name reference is made under David Trueman, it being very probable that the first was believed by the compiler to be the same man, or possibly the same. Again, page 644, in the list of the Revolutionary pensioners, is one Seth Trueman. ' 370. Dr. Thomas Truman. (Jonathan^, Thomas'^, Joseph'.) He married Jan. 31, 1773, by Rev. J. Snow, at Providence, Sarah Jenckes (daughter of Ebenezer Jenckes of Gloucester). Surgeon in the Independent Company of Light Infantry in Providence during the Revolution. The census for 1774 in Providence mentions Thomas Truman as having a family of five — himself, two sons under sixteen and two female adults.

She was a member of the Baptist Church at Mecklenburg for many years and lead in the singing. He was a Trustee of the Baptist Church. After her husband's death she removed to Ithaca, where she was for many years a member and regular attendant of the Park Baptist Church. She gave a fund to the Sunday School of her old home church and after her death, her son, Lafayette Lepine, gave a fund to the same church in memory of his parents. He was a Democrat in politics. At the time of her death the Ithaca Daily Journal said : "In the death of Mrs. Treman our community loses an old and most highly esteemed resident. Her long life was spent within the radius of Tompkins county, at Trumansburg, Mecklenburg and Ithaca. She was born at Trumansburg, Dec. 19th, 1799; moved to Mecklenburg after her marriage, and from there, in 1858, to Ithaca, where she has since resided. Mrs. Treman was marked by unusual religious earnestness, and her life was characterized, more than any- 70 History of the Treman Family. thing else, by her service and interest in such matters. Early in life she became a member of the Baptist Church and was an earnest and ardent supporter of its teachings until her death. For many years she was prominently identified with the Mecklenburg Baptist Church, being the leader of its music, and increasing in many ways its use- fulness. Since her removal to Ithaca, she has been a beloved member of the Park Church of this place ; a society she dearly loved, and to whose prosperity she has been, in every way ever since her connection with it, a generous contributor. Her attendance at church was something remarkable, being maintained long after the infirmities of age had made it hazardous. She was trained in the old school of religious expression, and the fervor and depth of feeling which characterized her utterances on all religious themes, will not soon be forgotten." He died Nov. 14, 1837, at the comparatively early age of 41 years, at Mecklenburg. She died Sept. 15, 1887, at Ithaca, N. Y. Residence Mecklenburg, N. Y. Children : 541. Leonard.'

He married (ist), Nov. 23, i8rg, Anna Maria Louise (LePine) Paddock. Anne Marie Louise LePine, the wife of Jared Treman, was born Nov. 27, 1794. Her father, Joseph Roch Paul Gilbert Lafayette LePine, was a godson of the Countess de Charwagnac, and a friend of General Lafayette, who was ten years his senior. He came to this country with Lafayette on the occasion of the latter's visit in 1784. He owned or thereafter acquired extensive interests in San Domingo, and was also interested in a' vessel or line of vessels operating between San Domingo, France and New York. Prior to 1790 he had married Catherine Kearney, a lady of Holland Dutch descent residing in New York. Louise was the third MRS. MARY AYRES TREMAN JARED TREMAN MRS. ANNA M. L. LE PINE TREMAN Fifth Generation. 71 ^ child ; her brother Joseph being five years older, and her elder sister dying in childhood. When Louise was five years old, she went with her mother and Joseph to join the husband and father in France, where they resided for a time, and where Madame LePine died. While Napoleon was first consul Louise went with her father and brother to San Domingo. It was during the troublous times on the island which marked the beginning of the century, and one morning Mr. LePine went out from the city to his plantation never to return. He undoubtedly perished in the general massacre of the whites. Disguised as an orange girl, the little Louise, then about ten years of age, escaped on board a merchant vessel bound for New York. Hidden beneath bags of coffee, she could hear the tramp and clanking guns of the black soldiers on the deck above searching for refugees ; and ' as long as she lived she vividly remembered the terrible experience. The escape of Joseph on a vessel bound for France ; its capture by a Spanish privateer ; his escape fromi the coast of Spain and return to his grandmother Kearney in New York, are equally thrilling. It was not many years after, when he was drowned in the East River. Bereft of parents, and too young to know how to find her relatives in New York, from whom she had been separated so long, Louise was taken into the family of Captain Mussneau, where she found a home until at the funeral of Alexander Hamilton, she was recognized by a nurse who had formerly been in her mother's employ. The nurse, taking the child's address, at once informed her grand- mother ; and that night after Louise had gone to bed, she was summoned to meet her brother Joseph. She immediately exclaimed, "My brother !" and rushed into his arms. In 1810, she was married to James Paddock, by whom she had four children, Louisa, Emily, Ann Eliza and Catherine. Before the birth of Catherine the family had moved to Trumansburg, N. Y., where Mr. Paddock soon after died. In 18 1 9 she was married to Jared Treman. Soon after the birth of Adriana (1824), Gen'l Lafayette, who was then in this country, was informed of the fact and asked the privilege of naming the child after his wife. He wrote on a slip of paper now in posses- sion of the Stone family, "Adrienne is the name, to which I beg leave to join my most affectionate thanks." 72 History of the Treman Family. But a small portion of the property interests held by her father was ever recovered except, that in return for the lands confiscated in San Domingo, a small annuity was secured from the French govern- ment, and paid to her for many years. She died Sept. 19, 1857. Her personal appearance is described by one who remembers her well as follows : "petite, erect, dark eyes, a pretty way of dressing her hair by parting it on one side, pretty caps, slender fingers, pleasant voice, full vocabulary, easy in manner, though dignified and rather reserved." He married (2nd), Feb. 16, 1859, Wealthy (Crampton) Clark (widow of Samuel E. Clark, M. D., of Trumansburg, N. Y.) She was born Sept. 8, 1804. She died March 19, 1881. He built the flouring mill at Enfield Falls, N. Y., which he owned many years. He afterwards resided at Enfield, Trumansburg and Millport, Chemung Co., N. Y. He also owned a flour mill at Millport. He was one of the earhest Masons in his part of the state, being a member of Trumansburg Lodge. He was a member of the Pres- byterian Church many years. Captain in the Militia. He was a Democrat in politics. At the time of his death the Ithaca Journal said of him : "He spent the business portion of his life at Enfield Falls, Tompkins County, building the grist mill at that point, and remain- ing until 1850. Then he bought the homestead at Trumansburg, but after a time removed to Millport, going into partnership with S. B. Banks in the purchase of the grist mill at that place. The firm of Treman & Banks conducted operations for about twelve years, and two years afterwards Mr. Treman returned to Trumansburg where he lived until about 1881, His subsequent life was passed with his children, and the last year with his daughter, Mrs. S. B. Banks. The deceased was for many years a member of the Presbyterian Church, and one of the oldest Masons in the country. His life was one of industry and usefulness. His character commendable in all respects, right principles guiding all his actions." He died July 10, 1889, at Watkins, N. Y. Children : 56r. Adriana Phedora. Born Oct. 19, 1820.

She was born Nov. i, 1803, at Bridgeport, Conn. He was the owner and proprietor of a flouring mill nearly all his life. At the time of his death the Trumansburg Sentinel said : "His life has been one of more than ordinary usefulness. In early life, and in his mature years, he had followed the milling business. He left this business only when impaired health, largely a result of his years, made his retirement a necessity. "While possessed of a mild disposition, he was very firm in his convictions. He was a bold advocate of principles which he thought to be true, without catering to public sentiment. He was a temperance man, when temperance was not as popular with the people as in these times. He was anti-slavery in his sentiments, and early identified his sympathy with the abolition party, long before that sentiment had reached ascendency in the history of the nation. "His religious life began in 1^30. At that time he united with the Methodist Church, and remained a faithful member through all his subsequent life. His companion, Mrs. Jemima Treman, with whom he had lived in sweet conjugal affection for more than 64 years, still survives him; though in very feeble health. "In his life Abner Treman made many friends, and very few enemies ; if, indeed, he ever had an enemy. Those who knew him longest and best, loved him most. His house was always open for the entertainment of ministers of the Gospel, and many of these have shared his hospitalities. Many with whom he worshiped in early life had preceded him to the Higher State of Being. While possessed with a mind of unusual strength, and of rare judgment, he was modest and retiring in disposition, 'esteeming others better than himself.' His death was more a result of old age, than from any apparent 74 History of the Treman Family. disease. Having lived beyond 'the allotted time,' he has finished his work, and ended his mission upon the earth. "Conscious that his end was near, he conversed upon the subject with great freedom with his friends. When the time came for his departure, the faith which had sustained him so long, was equal to the hour ; and with no fear, and no regrets, he waited the coming of the death angel, and then, imparting his blessing upon his companion and children, entered into life eternal. Seldom have we the opportunity of recording the death of one whose life had been so pure, so eventful and true." The Ithaca Daily Journal said : "His life has been one of earnestness and uprightness, while possessing a nature gentle and kind, yet was uncompromising in his convictions of right. He was forgiving and charitable in all his intercourse with his fellow men. He commanded the respect of all who came in contact with him, and was a liberal giver for all church and charitable purposes. He was a quiet and earnest Christian, exemplifying his profession by his daily life. He will be greatly missed by the entire community and all who knew him. The bereaved family have the sympathy of all. He leaves an aged wife and four daughters to mourn his loss." He died Sept. 30 (0.20), 1887. She died Oct. 17, 1891. Residence Waterburg, N. Y.

President of the Treman Family Association, 1879. The following account of the Treman Family Reunion is from the Owego (N. Y.) Times of Aug. 21, 1879 : "On Thursday last the Trumans of this village and vicinity, and the Tremans of Tompkins county, held their first reunion at Taghanic Falls. There is one peculiarity about this family, the residents in Tompkins County spell their name Treman and in Tioga County Truman. About five o'clock on Thursday morning last, the Truman family consisting of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Truman, of Flemingville, Lyman Truman, Jr., and sister, Mrs. Gorman, Orin T. Gorman and wife, Mrs. Dodge, Orin Truman, Geo. Truman and wife, William Truman and wife, Gilbert Truman and wife, A. Chase Thompson, wife and child, W. P. Stone, wife and daughter, B. L. Truman and wife, George Stratton and Lyman Stanbrough, left Owego for Ithaca. 76 History of the Treman Family. They arrived in that village about seven o'clock and immediately took the steamboat at Cayuga Lake for Goodwin's Point. They were met by Leonard Treman and Mr. and Mrs. William Thompson, and taken in carriages to the residence of Mr. Thompson, where they were elegantly entertained, and were then taken to Taghanic Falls, where the reunion took place. After the festivities of the day were over, the Owego delegation was brought to Ithaca in Mr. Treman's steam yacht, and then came by cars to Owego, arriving here in the evening. The party wishes to return their thanks to William Thomp- son and family and other friends, for the numerous courtesies extended them." We clip the following in regard to the reunion from the Ithaca Journal : " 'Th'e first reunion and picnic of the Treman and McLallen families took place at Taghanic Falls north side, Aug. 14, 1879. The early morning, which indicated a stormy, unpleasant time, soon gave way to a most delightful day, neither too hot nor too cold, with a cool north breeze, it seemed as if nature herself had done her best to render the occasion a delightful one. With the arrival of the regular steamer Frontenac, from Ithaca at 7 1-2 o'clock, came a delegation of about thirty of the Truman family from Owego, and Mr. Wm. Thompson, of Goodwin's point, very kindly furnished carriages to convey the party to the ground. At about ten o'clock the stream of carriages began to arrive and from that time until noon the incessant arrival made one wonder if the population of Tompkins County was composed entirely of the families of Treman and McLallen. At about noon the Ithaca delegation arrived escorted by the Mecklenburg cornet band and officers of the day who met them near the lake. The members of the two families from Owego and different parts of Tompkins County composed the greater part of the assemblage, but numerous relations were present from Meck- lenburg, Elmira, New York, Olean and Westfield, Pa. " 'At about one o'clock the company were invited by the com- mittee of arrangements to the grove where long tables were literally groaning beneath the weight of good things which had been brought to satisfy the wants of the inner man. In a short time the large company numbering, it was estimated, fully four hundred persons, were seated and a pleasant sight it was to look upon. In a short Fifth Generation. 77 time it became quiet and a photograph of the scene was taken by Hall, an artist from Trumansburg, after which Rev. J. E. Cathell invoked the blessing of the Giver of all good upon the company present. The onslaught began and in a short time, the hunger of the multitude being satisfied, a resolution was offered and passed that a similar gathering take place on the second Thursday of August, 1880. After which the following officers were elected for the ensuing year. " 'President, E. R. Treman ; Vice Presidents, Jared Treman, D. K. McLallen, Abner Treman, Wm. H. McLallen, Aurora, 111., Elias Treman, Ithaca, George Truman, Owego ; Secretary, Leonard Treman, Trumansburg; Treasurer, G. J. McLallen. " 'Prayer was next offered by Rev. J. J. Phelps, which was followed by an original poem written for the occasion by Rev. Dwight Williams, the preacher poet, who was followed by Rev. J. E. Cathell, who made a short speech. Next, Rev. J. J. Phelps made a short but happy speech and the exercises at the table terminated. " 'It being the wish of many present, about a dozen of the older members of both families were grouped and a photograph of them taken by the artist, Mr. Hall, and a more venerable group it would be hard to find. May their days be long upon the land. A book was kept in which all members of either family were requested to record their names and we believe nearly all did so. " 'The utmost harmony and good feeling prevailed ; people who had never met each other before becoming acquainted without the formality of an introduction, saying : 'We are all cousining today, let us know each other better.' To the enjoyment of the occasion the genial proprietors of the Taughannock House, Messrs. Root & Burg- hardt, contributed very largely, doing all in their power for the comfort of their guests. Keeping the house as they do on strictly temperance principles, makes it a very desirable place for such gatherings. As the day grew on those from a distance began to think of returning home and each went feeling that it had been good to be there and that if their lives were spared the second Thursday in August, 1880, would again find them gathered together to renew the acquaintance made that day. A resolution was passed to the effect that an account of the gathering should be furnished the Ithaca Journal and in accord- ance with that request I offer the foregoing outline of the day's pleasant event.

Foster, ) "On motion of Commissioner St. John the resolutions were unanimously adopted." In memory of Mr. Treman the public schools were closed during the afternoon of the day of his funeral and the flags were at half-mast throughout the day. Places of business were also closed during the funeral. From report to Board of Education by Supt. Foster, published in the Ithaca Journal, Oct. 6th, '98 : "In the death of Mr. Treman I feel a personal loss. Prompt, keen and frank, having the experience of age with the vigor of youth, he was quick to reach his decisions ; and was outspoken in his opinions. During all the time of his illness, his interest in the affairs of the schools continued unabated and he inquired frequently concerning what was being done. I shall always treasure it as a valued memory thkt on the last evening when he was fully conscious he asked for me to come and see him. The same keen interest inspires every member of the Board, and it is this which makes it possible to make our work successful. "H. W. Foster, Sup't." At a meeting of the Board of Directors of the Ithaca Trust Company and upon the announcement of the death of Elias Treman, a member of such Board, it was ordered that the following memorial of our deceased associate be entered upon the records of the Com- pany and that a copy thereof, attested officially, be presented to the family of the deceased : "The death of Elias Treman, one of the Directors of this Com- pany, creates a new vacancy in our number, and leaves us the duty of joining in the wide sorrow for his loss and recaUing the many traits of his character which made him not merely our business associate but our welcome and cherished friend. "He had long been a resident of this city, and taken an active Sixth Generation. 119 part in promoting its growth and adding to its prosperity. The vigor and industry and intelligent care which he gave to his own affairs was fully developed in those enterprises which, beyond his personal interests, touched also the pubUc welfare and affected the general health and safety. In the early lighting of our streets and homes, and, later, in the bountiful supply of water for the public safety and health, his business ability and courage found a wide and useful field of activity, with results not only beneficial to himself and his associates, but vitally essential to the health and security of the City, and which even yet we scarcely appreciate as they deserve. If, as is true, his private interest was the impelling motive of his share in the enterprise, at least it was directed to worthy and useful ends, and demanded of him and his associates a foresight and courage the utility of which for all of us we are slowly beginning to realize. "When the Trust Company was organized, and took its place quietly among the City's financial institutions, he came among us with the same business ability and watchful oversight which had carried his own enterprises to success, and beyond that, brought with him a constant cheerfulness, a playful bluntness of expression, and a regard for his associates lurking under a humorous welcome, which made us all his sincere and attached friends. That cheerful and kindly temperament followed him through the long days of his last illness and left him only at the end. "His place we can supply but cannot fill. We can only put upon our records this memorial of the man, and of the loss which as his business associates we have sustained. "We shall see his face no more, but he has left us the legacy of a sincere and lasting respect for his memory. "W. H. Storms, Secretary." Resolutions of the Protective Police : "It is with deep sorrow that we miss from our midst the form of Ex-Captain Elias Treman whose death occurred at his home in Ithaca on Oct. ist. He was a charter member of this Company and for fourteen years its Captain, and was deeply interested in the wel- fare of the Company. For more than fifty years he has been a prominent and influential member of our business community. As a member of the house of Treman, King & Co., a Director of the Tompkins County National Bank, of the Ithaca Water Works Co., 120 History of the Treman Family. of the Ithaca Gas Light Co., one of the organizers of the Ithaca Trust Co., and since its organization a Director and member of its Finance Committee, his ability, wise counsel and sound judgment contributed largely to the success of each and every one. During his active business career he was ever mindful of his duty to his church and to the public. As Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Presbyterian Church he gave freely of his time to the business interests and welfare of this body. He was an active and faithful member of the Board of Education, and a highly valued Trustee of the Ithaca Savings Bank. Mr. Treman commanded to an unusual degree the respect and admiration of this entire community, and his warm greeting and bright smile will be missed by all. "We valued his friendship in life and will always treasure his memory in our hearts. •'Resolved, That this minute be spread upon the records of this Company and a copy thereof be sent to Mr. Treman's family. "H. L. Hinckley, ) "D. B. Stewart, y Committee." ''E. L. Williams, ) At a meeting of the Board of Trustees of the First Presbyterian Church, held Dec. 26th, 1898, the following report of committee, ap- pointed Oct. loth, was, on motion, unanimously approved and adopted : "While the members of our Board were appalled and grieved by the loss of our worthy treasurer. General Blood, we were doubly bereaved by the sad accident on June ist, to our beloved President, Elias Treman, that deprived us of his wise counsel and ever courteous presence at the head of our Board. While denied all his usual activities and realizing only too well his own helpless physical condi- tion, he did not sorrow as one without hope, but gave to all who were privileged to minister to his needs, or to visit him for a moment, abundant evidence of heroic Christian fortitude and wonderful patience in waiting for the inevitable' eiid. "The interest that he manifested in the welfare of the church he served so faithfully and so long, the brightness and cheer with which he encouraged those around him must be to his family, as it is to his friends, a source of great comfort. The end came on October ist and we, with the. entire community, sorrow for one whose place can hardly be filled. Sixth Generation. 121 "Therefore, be it Resolved, That the Board of Trustees of the First Presbyterian Church of Ithaca extend to the family of our beloved President our deep and sincere sympathies in their bereave- ment and that we commend them to our Gracious Father above who alone can give them full consolation. "Resolved, That we desire here to testify to the faithful and unselfish services of our associate as trustee for more than twenty years, the last ten of which he served as President. We wish to bear testimony to his kindly consideration, his courteous treatment, his unfailing regularity and promptness in the despatch of business, and to his readiness to take upon himself much more than his share of the details of our work. "Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be presented to the family and that they be spread upon the minutes of our Board. "T. G. Miller, Sec'y. "C. D. Stowell, Chairman, pro. tem. "Ithaca, N.

The Tompkins County Democratic Convention, Oct. 3, i8g8, adopted the following resolution : "We, the. representatives of the Democratic party, assembled in County Convention, desire to express our sympathy and condolence to. the family of the late Elias Treman in their bereavement. In Mr. Treman's death we have lost a highly valued friend and wise counsellor." The following letters were among many received by the family : "Orange, Oct. 3, 1898. "My Dear Mr. Treman : — "I have just received the Ithaca paper with the news of your father's death. "I need hardly say in what high regard I ever held him for I think you must know how long and at one period of his life how intimately I knew him and that was before and up to the time of his marriage. He was always just the manly man that his straight and manly figure symbolized. He was outspoken, you always knew where to find him on every question of importance, political, local, social or religious that came up for discussion. 122 History of the Treman Family.

"My Dear Rob : — "I want to express to you and the entire family my sincere sympathy in the great loss you have sustained. I have often thought since hearing of your father's accident how hard it must have been for one so full of energy and vitality to be afflicted as he was and though I hear he bore it with the utmost fortitude and resignation, I was thankful, for him and his family, when he was released from suffering. I know what it means to lose a father and how severe the shock is when the end finally comes, even though it has been for some time anticipated, and am truly sorry for you. The loss comes to you, as it did to me, after you had reached manhood and were well able to go alone — but you cannot help feeling that you have lost a strong prop and support and a wise and prudent counsellor. Your father will be sadly missed by many in Ithaca outside his immediate family — his strong personality having impressed itself on all who came -in contact with him socially or in business.

Treman, Esq.: "Dear Sir: — The notice of your good father's death has come to us, and its saddening information brings a pang of deep sorrow to me, his long time personal and admiring friend. For more than forty years have I known and many times have I met him, and each time enjoying his presence more than the preceding. His hearty cheerfulness, his candor, his integrity, his old time lively, breezy ways, combined with his shrewdness and sagacity made him a delightful person to meet either in a social or business way. "The first time I saw him, as perhaps I have told you, was soon after he was married, when he was living at the hotel — the 'Clinton,' Sixth Generation. 123 I think — and from the first I was interested in him, an interest that has increased as the years have gone by. "To your mother and to his children I desire to convey the assurances of my most tender sympathy with sincere and earnest wishes for their comfort and consolation. "Faithfully yours, "George Henry Sargent. "Three score and ten, Oct. 29, 1898." "United States Legation, Tokio. "My Dear Friend Charles : — "I wanted to send you a line to let you know that I think of you and your mother and family at this sad time. I will not try to say more now, but you must know in what high respect I have always held your father for his upright, sterling character. You may not know, however, that it was he who largely influenced my father to send me to Cornell, and you can appreciate how much college meant for me. Please give especially my affectionate regards and sympathy to your mother and write me when you can. "Ever sincerely your friend, "Rant S. Miller. "November 21, 1898." "Hudson, Wis., Oct. 5th, 1898. "Mr. Leander King, Ithaca N. Y.: "My Dear Friend: — I received last evening from you the Ithaca Nev.'S announcing the death of Elias Treman. I have his countenance as clearly in my mind as when I left the dear old town. "Elias Treman was a man I shall never forget. My acquaintance with him was different of course than with you and others nearer my age, yet like Judge Finch with whom I studied law I could never forget Elias Treman. While he was independent and fearless and did not stand on conventionalities, as I knew him he was so kind, considerate, thoughtful and gentlemanly toward those younger, that today I remember him with that high esteem and deep respect that the high, noble and manly qualities which he possessed ever command. "In what I have said I hope you can recognize not only its truth but also recognize that my memory is not dim. "Sincerely yours, "H. L. Humphrey." 124 History op the Treman Family. From the Ithaca Daily Journal, May i, 1899 : "The children of the Central School celebrated Arbor Day by planting trees and by appropriate exercises in their school rooms. '•The Persian poet says : 'When a good man dies, all mortals weep, but the angels rejoice that his trials are ended, and that they have him amongst them.' "No man deserved this exquisite Eastern verse better than did Mr. Treman. "It is not necessary to mention here his munificent works of benevolence or devotion to public good. A Christian man, a faith- ful friend of the schools, a gentleman thorough in all good works, these describe one whom 'none knew him but to love him, none named him but to praise.' "To Mr. Elias Treman we dedicate this tree. May it ever be a reminder to cherish his memory with affection, to be thankful for his example and to think of him now as in the 'light perpetual' of a glorified existence." From the Ithaca Daily Journal, Sept., '98 : "As the Journal goes to press this afternoon the Ithaca fire department is making its 39th annual parade in a broiling sun. "As the Protective Police marched by the stalwart form of Elias Treman was missed at their head. The company of Protective Police was organized in 1868 by Elias Treman and Joseph Esty. and today, for the first time in thirty years since its organization, Mr. Treman was absent from the line. This is a remarkable record, and probably cannot be duplicated by anyone connected with the Ithaca or any other department. The patient invalid, doubtless, had this in mind today when the strains of the band told of the fact that this was the annual parade of the department." Mrs. Treman gave to the new First Presbyterian Church of Ithaca, as a memorial to her husband, one of the finest organs in the country. At the time of her death the Ithaca Daily Journal said : "Mrs. Treman was a member of the First Presbyterian Church of this city, and always took an active part in church work.

He was appointed, in 1862, by the Governor, as one of the Town Committee to raise volunteers for the Civil War. At the time of his death the Ithaca Daily News said of him: "Leander R. King, one of Ithaca's oldest and most highly respected business men, died this morning, shortly after 6 o'clock, at his home at No. 1 1 1 West Green Street. "Mr. King's last illness began about three weeks ago, while on a trip to Canada. At Tadousac he had a very severe attack of angina pectoris, but recovered sufficiently to return home, which he did about ten days ago. "Since that time he has been confined to the house, but up to the very last his family entertained great hopes of his ultimate recovery. The end came quite suddenly and until a few minutes before his death it was supposed that he was getting better. Then indications were seen that denoted a change and the end came quietly and peacefully. PETER MEYER Sixth Generation. 141 "Leander King was born at Trumansburg, February 3rd, 1828, At an early age his family moved to Albany where he received his early education. He came to this city at the age of 23 and entered the employ of Treman Brothers, who were then engaged in the hard- ware business on the present site' of the store. In the year 1857, Mr. King was taken into the partnership and the new firm did busi- ness under the name Treman, King & Co. Mr. King continued as a member of the firm until 1870 when he was obliged to retire from; business on account of his health. After a year of complete rest in California, he was able to resume his work, and upon his return toi this city he re-entered the firm, where he continued his interests up to the time of his death. "Mr. King was the senior member of the present firm, Treman, King & Co., and the last survivor of the original firm which consisted of himself and the three brothers, Leonard, Lafayette, and Elias Treman. Mr. King was a cousin of his partners. "For many years Mr. King has been closely identified with many of the principal business interests of this city. He has been a director of the Tompkins County National Bank since '71, and he was also a director of the Ithaca Water Works Company, and a principal stockholder in the Lyceum Opera House Company. Mr. King was a genial gentleman and his social qualities made him many friends. He has always been a successful business man and his judgment on financial matters was respected by his associates. For years he has been a prominent member of St. John's Protestant Episcopal Church and was at one time a vestryman. His life was an exemplary one, and his demise is mourned by the whole city."

History of the Treman Family. home of James K. Tremain and the historical address delivered by him is from the Genoa Tribune of July 7, 1893 : "West Venice, N. Y., June 29, 1893. "A grand occasion was the Tremain Centennial Picnic which has been held at the residence of James K. Tremain today. "The day has been remarkably pleasant and no place could have been chosen more appropriate for this occasion, since it was just one hundred years ago that the father of James K. Tremain, Benjamin Tremain, built his log cabin in the woods, and with his family began life on the very ground where the tables were spread today. Neither could a pleasanter spot have been chosen than the spacious and shady lawn fronting his residence. "For many weeks, James K. Tremain, the only survivor of a family of ten children, has labored unceasingly perfecting arrange- ments for this reunion whereby the descendants, many of whom have never met, might come together and celebrate this the centennial of his father's settlement on this spot, and his heart has been truly gladdened by so many responses from different parts of the Union. "Carriages kept coming until at noon one hundred and fifty were comfortably seated at the tables which were groaning under their load of good things. Rev. E. A. Peck offered thanks, then associa- tion and appetite strove for the greater endurance. After dinner the relatives were grouped together and views were taken of the gathering by Wm. Battey, of Rochester, with a kodak manufactured at that place. During all this time sweet music was being discoursed by Moravia's popular orchestra. "After this came a delightful little programme of exercises presided over by Geo. Truman, of Nashville, Michigan. The exercises were opened with prayer by Rev. E. A. Peck, of Ledyard, the orchestra following with a tine selection. The address of welcome was delivered by James K. Tremain in a manner which none could help feeling was indeed a welcome from the hea,rt. It was neatly responded to by Rev. VVeslev Mason, of Skaneateles. A quartette from Ledyard favored the company with a choice selection after which a poem, written for the occasion, was read by C. M. Swift, of Cortland. Another of the orchestra's fine selections was then neatly rendered when came a historical sketch given by James K. Tremain, a portion of which we cannot help repeating. He says : Sixth Generation. 145 '"In a backward glance, covering a period of one iiundred years, justice would demand of me an impossibility under existing circumstances. " 'In the presentation of this historical sketch, I am somewhat embarrassed as the ancient records, dating back to the emigration of the Tremain family, four brothers, from England to America in 1666, were destroyed at the burning of my house in 1862. " 'In the rush and push and cry of hard times that reach us on every hand in this last decade of the nineteenth century, it is well to pause and consider : Who laid the foundations of this Great Republic ? Who rushed to the front to drive back an invading foe ? Who felled the mighty forests unaided by modern implements ? " 'With the primitive ax, patient ox and mammoth chain came together the logs with which the cabin of the pioneer was builded. Well may we honor the memory of the fathers, though dead their works remain, while we reap the reward of their labors. It is fitting and right that the descendants, friends and neighbors should assemble to commemorate the hundredth anniversary of this settlement. " 'Philip Tremain and family are supposed to be the first settlers in this vicinity, locating on this farm in 1793, erecting a cabin in about the center of this yard, digging this well from which hung the old oaken bucket that has supplied the family with pure cold water for a century. " 'In 1790, the family emigrated from the Bay State to the then far West. The route over which they came to Cayuga County with their household goods was toilsome in the extreme. The Hudson river furnished means for reaching Albany. Between that point and the Mohawk great difficulties were met. Sixteen miles over sand barrens to Little Falls. There a portage was made. The canoes and light boats were carried by men while the large ones were drawn by oxen. The time required to make the journey from Schenectady to Cayuga Lake was twenty days. The family made the first settle- ment where Trumansburg now stands, my father felling the first tree, giving the hamlet the name of Tremainsvil-le, later changed to Trumansburg. " 'In the month of March, 1793, with their household goods on a sled drawn by oxen, they came around the head of the Lake, follow- ing the shore to the mouth of Salmon Creek, taking that to the forks. 146 History of the Treman Family. thence the Little Salmon to Section 83 and 84, where they purchased 185 acres and again commenced life in the woods. The family then consisted of Philip, his wife, Anna, and sons, Benjamin and William. " 'A few years later my father married Phoebe Kartwright. They became the parents of ten children, eight sons and two daughters, all reaching man's estate. " 'My grandfather was a soldier in the Revolutionary war, my father in the War of 18 12 and grandsons in the late war. " 'The early towns were very large. Whites Town, founded in 1788, embraced the entire State west of Utica. The first election was held at Cayuga Ferry. Voters living as far east as Utica came to vote, a distance of eighty miles. " 'The settlers in coming into the wilderness did not leave their Puritan training behind them but gathered in the cabins, holding religious meetings. In 1833, the M. E. Church was organized at Ledyard. Father united there and was an earnest worker until his death. He walked to church in the morning, was taken ill in class and died that night, aged 77 years. Father was a public spirited man, was largely interested in the reforms of the day, especially the Anti-Slavery and Temperance movements. Slaves were then held in Cayuga County. I have yet to learn that either of my brothers ever used intoxicating drinks, although raised when whisky was con- sidered indispensable. " 'After quite an extensive correspondence, I have found the direct descendants. My father's grandchildren located in eight different States from Oregon to Florida, each of my brothers and sisters having living representatives. Four generations are repre- sented here today.

The following interesting letter was written by him : "Binghamton, Oct. 11, 1898. "To THE Editor OF The Journal: "Sir : — I read with much interest your article in The Journal of Oct. I, 1898, written upon the event of the death of the lamented Elias Treman of Ithaca. "I hope it will be pardonable for me to attempt to correct your article that it may accord with the chronological history of the Tru- man family in this country. 1 68 History of the Treman Family. "The first representative of the family to come to America was Joseph Truman who settled in New London, Conn., in 1666. The following year 1667 he was elected to the office of constable. He continued his residence there until his death which occurred in 1697. His will which is on file was dated the year prior to his death in which he bequeaths his property to his five children, Joseph, Thomas, Elizabeth, Mary and Ann. "Joseph married Mary Shapley, daughter of Benjamin Shapley, Dec. 5, 1 701. They had four children, John, Simeon, Nathaniel and Benjamin. "John Truman, the first child of Joseph, married and they had nine children, Jonathan, Ehza, PhiHp, John, Gaines, Julius, Daniel, Abner and Jared. "Abner, next to the youngest, born in 1761, entered the army of the revolution in 1777 and became distinguished for his bravery; his son, Ashbel, was the father of_the late EUas Treman. "The Truman family in Owego are direct descendants of Simeon Truman, the second son of Joseph and Mary Shapley his wife. "The writer is a direct descendant of Thomas Truman, who was born in New London, Conn., A. D. 1681, and died there Jan. 15, 1747, he being the second son of Joseph Truman, who came from England in 1666 as before stated. I am much indebted for the knowledge I have been able to obtain of the Truman family in America, to George Truman, Esq., of Owego, N. Y., to the late Mrs. Christopher B. Arnold, of Providence, R. I., who in 1858 permitted me to make extracts from the record of a very old family Bible in her possession, which formerly belonged to her grandfather, Jonathan Truman, of New London (my great grandfather), and also to 'New England Chronological History,' by Savage, a work of great merit. My conclusions, after giving the subject much attention, are that the name Treman and Tremain and Trueman were all primarily and purely from the English name Truman, of New London in 1666, and that the exciting and disrupting scenes during the long years of the revolution and the conglomeration of nationalities, the Babel of tongues, are responsible for the different ways of spelling names of the oldest families in the United States.

Member of New York Stock Exchange. Mayor of Orange, N. J. The National Cyclopedia of American Biography says of him : "Henry H. Truman, son of Daniel Henry and Cordelia (Mead) Truman, was born in Greenwich, Conn., Feb. 7, 1847. After the lyo History of the Treman Family. usual preparatory course in the rudimentary branches, he was sent to the Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn. After completing his studies, he left on one day's notice to begin his business career with the firm of Le Grand Lockwood & Co., Wall Street brokers and bankers. His salary was small at first, but his progress was rapid, and he was so well liked by his employers, that his advance was rapid, and it was but a few years before he received a large salary. The failure of the firm in 1869, threw him out of employment, but with the money he had saved he was enabled the same year to start in busi- ness for himself, having in 1869 purchased a seat in the Stock Exchange. He was successful from the start, but default of one for whom he was doing business necessitated a suspension in 187 1. He subsequently met every dollar of his obligations. In 187 1 he entered into partnership with Roswell P. Flower (later Governor of New York) and E. C. Benedict, under the firm narhe of Benedict, Flower & Co. This firm passed through the great panic of '73 with credit unimpaired. The firm dissolved in 1875. In 1876 Mr. Truman entered into an arbitrage business, that is buying and selling shares and bonds be- tween New York and London or other cities. Mr. Truman was for a time a member of the Petroleum Exchange. He was a member of the Governing Committee and Chairman of the Membership Com- mittee of the Consolidated Exchange, after the union of the Mining and Petroleum Exchanges. He withdrew from this Exchange in 1885, as the rules of the Stock Exchange at that time prohibited membership in the Consolidated Exchange. Later he has also be- come a member of the N. Y. Produce Exchange. "Mr. Truman settled in Orange in 1885, and three years later he purchased a fine building site on the S. W. corner of Lincoln and Highland Avenues, where he erected a beautiful villa, comprising the best of modern architectural features known as the American Domestic, the first story being of Belleville brown stone, the stories above it of frame. "At the time Mr. Truman was asked to accept the nomination for the mayoralty of Orange, he had not been in public life nor had he ever taken any interest in politics. It was known that he was a staunch Republican and being a man of the highest reputation, his constituents believed that these qualifications would insure the suc- cessful administration of the affairs of Orange. Before entering Sixth Generation. 171 upon his duties Mr. Truman made himself thoroughly familiar with the condition of public affairs and of the needs of the city, and pledged himself to use his best endeavors to influence for good gov- ernment. No one questioned his honesty, his integrity or his busi- ness capacity to execute the plans he formulated. His ability, how- ever, to carry forward the work, and execute the laws as he inter- preted them was largely dependent on the cooperation of those asso- ciated with him. A difference of opinion as to the best methods of accomplishing the desired results, caused some friction and by the close of his first year's administration it was generally understood that Mr. Truman would not approve of any improper legislation. His second message at the beginning of 1891 showed that he was fully conversant with every department of the city and his recom- mendations received the most careful consideration. His presenta- tion of the city's financial condition was a most able exhibit, and showed his familiarity with all the details. His recommendation to the council that an effort be made to have the new issues of bonds exempt from taxation and the advisability of issuing long bonds, evinced great wisdom and forethought. "He said truly that 'as the growth of the city continues the cost of the permanent improvements, which are now being made, and which benefit all proportionately, can be, and shall be, paid for by those who receive the ultimate benefit.' Mr. Truman urged that the system of sewerage so long under consideration should be pushed forward with all possible diligence and recommended the issue of four per cent bonds in such amounts as would enable citizens who were not property holders to invest and thus become interested in the affairs of the city. Mr. Truman referred to the Board of Educa- tion in praiseworthy terms, having made a personal investigation of the schools. Referring to the Police Department he recommended that all appointees should be required to pass a physical examination, and that any who were unfit for duty should be retired or dismissed ; he also recommended that a patrol service be introduced and that 'call boxes' be established in different parts of the city, which would do away with at least one roundsman and give more efficient service. Mr. Truman called special attention to the valuable franchises granted by the city to railroad and other corporations, and to the small amount of revenue received by the city from these sources and rec- 172 History of the Treman Family. ommended a plan which would insure a large annual revenue. No man ever labored more earnestly in the interests of a community; or worked more faithfully to effect the desired reforms than did Mr. Truman and when it is considered that his time and his energies were expended in this direction without any compensation whatever, he certainly earned and fully deserves the lasting gratitude of his fellow citizens. < "During his residence of sixteen years or more, in Orange, Mr. Truman has given much time and attention to the moral and relig- ious interests of the community. Before coming to Orange he was a member of the Church of the Incarnation of New York, he was con- firmed by Bishop Potter in the Church of the Holy Trinity, Brooklyn, in i860. He was long a member of Grace Episcopal Church of Orange. He contributed to the building of St. Andrews Bpiscopal Church at Montrose Park, South Orange. At the first meeting of the new parish for organization he was proposed for and elected to the office of Senior Warden. He is also interested in the work of the Young Men's Christian Association, having been one of the early members of the Orange Association and later assisted in the organi- zation of the Orange Valley Association, of which Association he was the President. He is a man of strong religious convictions, thought- ful, earnest, painstaking and imbued with a sincere desire to be help- ful to others and to benefit his fellowmen. He is a member of the New England Society of Orange, the Orange Lawn Tennis Club and other organizations. "Mr. Truman married Julia M. Judson, a daughter of Charles Gideon Judson of New York City, formerly of Woodbury, Conn., a son of Charles and Fannie (Marvin) Judson, son of Elijah, son of Gideon, born March 8, 1748, son of Elijah (born 1715) and Sarah (Hollister) Judson, son of Jonathan, 1682, son of John, who was one of the original signers of the Fundamental Articles for the settle- ment of Woodbury, in 1672. He was the son of Lieut. Joseph, eldest son of William Judson, who came from Yorkshire, England, in 1634, with his family, Joseph, Jeremiah' and Joshua. He lived four years at Concord, Mass., and removed thence to Stratford, Conn., at its first settlement in 1639. Rev. Adoniram Judson, the missionary to Burmah, was a descendant of William and cousin to Gideon, above mentioned." Sixth Generation. 173 At the time of his inauguration as Mayor an Orange newspaper said of him : "The inauguration of Henry H. Truman as tenth Mayor of Orange on Tuesday evening, March 25, 1890, was an eventful period in the history of Orange. His predecessor, Mayor Hartford, had . held the position for twelve consecutive years, first as a Democrat, and for nine years as the People's candidate. Mayor Truman^ although not a politician was elected by the Republican vote. On taking his seat he was heartily congratulated by his predecessor, who in his closing remarks said : 'Now that I am about to retire it gives^ me unbounded pleasure to know that my successor is a gentleman whose name is above reproach, and who I am confident, will have only the city's best interest at heart.' Mayor Hartford was over- come by his emotions and was compelled to sit down. Mr. Truman returned thanks for the hearty welcome extended him and especially for the 'kind words of his predecessor, who had served so long and faithfully.' "The Truman family from which Henry H. Truman is descended is identified with the early history of the Connecticut colony. The origin of the name was undoubtedly, as the spelling indicates, Truman or Trueman, meaning a true man and this has been a characteristic of the family through every generation. "I. Joseph Truman, the ancestor, was born in England, and came to America with his family, which consisted of five children, viz : Joseph, Thomas, Eliza, Mary and Ann. He settled in New London, Conn., in 1666 and was chosen constable the next year where he died in 1697. The records show that 'he purchased some pits for tanning from Alexander Piggins in 1670.' Truman's Brook and Truman Street derive their names from this family. "II. Joseph Truman (2) son of Joseph (i) settled in New London. He with 77 others received a grant of land, Oct. 14, 1704, from the Governor and Company of Her Majesty's Colony of Con- necticut in General Court assembled by authority of Letters Patent given to them by Charles II, dated 23rd April, 1663. This was a part of the addition made to the bounds of New London, which included the Mohegan reservation which had long been claimed by the town, but not legally included in their bounds. The grant was 174 History of the Treman Famii.^-?im;ii j^^^ii^g^,.'.'^- ' *:^^^-: ■>' . ■■ '■ i?'. • '' ■-: '.^/'"i-'; ^^ll^^^^^B SENATOR NELSON W. ALDRICH Sixth Generation. 189 graduated began a business life at Providence, R. I. His practical interest in city affairs caused him to be elected in the City Council from 1869-75, and from 1872-3 he was its President. On leaving the Council he was elected as a Republican to the General Assembly of the state, and in 1876 was Speaker of the House. In 1878 he was elected to represent his district in the 46th, and was re-elected in 1880 to the 47th Congress. His practical business methods applied to legislation so increased the confidence he had already won in the state, that in 1881 he was elected by the Rhode Island legislature to the vacancy in the United States Senate, caused by the death of Ambrose E. Burnside. He was re-elected in 1886 and again in 1892. During his several terms, he served on important committees, notably on that of finance, on which he was retained! during his entire term of service in the Senate. He thus became thoroughly familiar with the intricate questions of finance and tariff, and Senators accorded him an attentive hearing whenever he had occasion to present his views. Large credit is due to Senator Aldrich for the reciprocity features introduced in the McKinley tariff bill, his suggestions being accepted, after the proposition made by Mr. Blaine had been discussed and dropped by mutual consent. In his subsequent career in the Senate he has been prominent in the discussion of the great financial questions that arose in Congress and was conspicuous as an earnest advocate of mono-metallism." They have four children. Residence, 1901, Providence, R. I. Children : 3641. Abbie Greene. The newspapers of the country of Aug. 27, 1901, announced her engagement to John Davidson Rockefeller, Jr. The wedding day is Oct. 9, 1901. The New York Journal of Aug. 27, 1901, says of her : "The engagement of Miss Abbie G. Aldrich, second daughter of the millionaire Senator from Rhode Island, to John D. Rockefeller, Jr., only son of the Standard Oil king and heir presumptive to the greatest fortune in the world, was announced yesterday. She is handsome, brilliant, a favorite of society, the bearer of a distinguished name ; he is stalwart, earnest, pious, rich even without his. great expectations, a business man. They are about the same age — twenty-six — and they have been in each other's thoughts since he was a college student at Brown and used to visit at Senator Aldrich's big town house, on Bennett Street, Provi- igo History of the Treman Family. ■dence, and at the villas at Warwick Neck. The same wire that brings news of the betrothal carries the intelligence that young Rockefeller is negotiating for the purchase of Rocky Point, the most beautiful shore resort on Narragansett Bay, which adjoins his future father-in-law's place. The match is no surprise ; it has been an understood thing for some time, and society's main interest in the event concerns the future of the young pair who will start in wedlock so well endowed. Miss Abbie Aldrich has not been more conspicuous in church circles than most young ladies of her station in society, while the young man has been a leader in Baptist circles ever since he came from college. He is treasurer of the Fifth Avenue Sun- day School, and has always seemed to dread the responsibility of the great wealth that will be his, rather than to consider it a means to promote his own pleasure. He is fond of speaking before religious bodies and has been known to refer to himself as a steward from whom an accounting would one day be demanded. Now the question is : will she make a society man of him, and will the Rockefeller name become a synonym for the magnificent entertainments she is so competent to give, or will he make a devotee of her ? Or, will each adopt something of the other's character and make the house of Rockefeller famous alike for piety and for social splendor ? When the young man was at Brown he was the manager of the football team and displayed his business quality by making the football team self-supporting for the first time in the college's history. He was a very democratic young fellow at college, made no display of his wealth, and though the football and his fraternity, Alpha Delta Phi, took much of his time, he was a good deal of a grind at his studies. He was at college to learn, and it is his nature to get the full worth of anything he goes into. It was through his influence that his father gave $500,000 to Brown University last fall. Young Rockefeller has had few diversions since he left the university. He rode horseback a little, but his life lay mainly between the oflices of the Standard Oil Company and the Baptist Church. Recently he has emerged in a small degree from his retirement, and last week organized a dancing class, which will meet at Delmonico's four times next season. This is probably the greatest dissipation of which he has ever been guilty. As a business man he won his spurs in Leather stock a year ago. He bought in 700 shares of Leather at 1 1 to 20 and sold it at 30 or 40, thus making his first million. He went into the Standard Oil offices as a clerk and ran the gamut of the office routine. Now he is supposed to be competent to take his father's place and handle his vast hold- ings whenever he is called on to assume that great responsibility. Sixth Generation. 191 His life is as regular as that of a boy at a military school. He rises at 6:30 A. M. ; from 7 to quarter of 8 he exercises — walking or chopping wood. He takes half an hour to breakfast, catches the 8:40 train at Tarrytown for New York, goes immediately to his office and remains there, except for half an hour for luncheon, until 3:15 p. m., when he returns to Tarrytown. He drives for an hour and then dines, and by 9:30 is in bed. His prospective father-in-law was a grocery merchant of very mod- erate fortune in Providence until he went into politics. Thirty years ago he became President of the Providence Common Council. In 1876 he was a member of the Rhode Island General Assembly. He went to Congress, and in 1880 became a United States Senator. He is a member of the Committees on Finance, Pensions and Ordinance and Warships and Chairman of trans- portation routes to the seaboard. He is said to have been the real author of the McKinley tariff bill. His position, apart from the Government, is President of the United Traction Company, of Providence. The bride-to-be had a narrow escape last month. She was on the yacht Wild Duck when it ran down the Joy Liner Tremont in Long Island Sound." The New York World of Sept. i, 1901, says of her : "Miss Abby G. Aldrich, second daughter of the senior United States Senator from Rhode Island, who is to become the wife of John D. Rockefeller, Jr., the man who will probably be the first billionaire in the history of the world, is a cultured, brilliant and serious-minded young woman. Notwithstanding her father's long residence in Washington, she has passed most of her life in Providence, where she was born. Usually in the winter she goes to Aiken, N. C. The great social functions of the capital seemingly have no charm for her, although it has been stated that Senator Aldrich has taken a mansion in Wash- ington this winter and will entertain, with Mrs. Aldrich and his two daughters. Miss Lucy T. and Miss Abby, as hostesses. Heretofore the Aldriches have lived at the Arlington Hotel and have done no entertaining, as Mrs. Aldrich and the girls have not been in Washington more than .six months all told during the long service of Mr. Aldrich in the Senate. Probably the most interesting fact about Miss Aldrich is that, except in the most general way, she does not care for society and its frivoli- ties. She is pretty and attractive and could easily shine should she care to enter the lists. Her interests are in opposite directions. She had advanced ideas about education and is a student of literature. Her pin money, her friends say, goes mostly for the newest high-class books and for the solid magazines. She is interested in practical charity and much prefers to investigate and relieve a genuine case of distress than 192 History of the Treman Family. to spend an afternoon with a dressmaker talking about the fit of a gown. From this it must not be imagined that Miss Aldrich does not dress well, for she does. Her father is several times a millionaire and lavishes his money on his family. But she cares for dress only. as a young woman of her station who has no infatuation for society should care for it. It is not a passion with her and does not distract her mind from the larger problems of life, of which she is an earnest student. Miss Aldrich 's fad is a firm belief in the higher education of both sexes. She is thoroughly in harmony with the educational ideas of the Rockefellers. She is devoted, also, to church work. These features of Miss Aldrich's character, in addition to her great personal charm, must appeal to both her future husband and to John D. Rockefeller, his father, whose financial support of the Baptist Church is only equalled by the great gifts he makes to the Chicago University, of which he is virtually the founder. Senator Aldrich, her father, is often spoken of as the "business man" of the Senate. He rarely makes a speech, but he is at the head of the immensely important Finance Committee, through which all tariff and other business legis- lation must go. His predominating trait of mind is exactness. He is thoroughly business-like. Miss Abby has inherited these qualities to a marked degree. In her charitable work she is as precise as the most painstaking manager of a business enter- prise. She gives generously, but never until she has investi- gated the merits of each case brought to her attention. She does not believe in indiscriminate charity and will not afford the slightest assistance until she knows the facts. She tells to her intimates the story of an experience she had in Aiken which strengthened her resolution in this regard. A few winters ago, before she knew as much of the wiles of mendicants as she does now, a negro girl approached her with a tale of woe that was heartrending. Her mother was dead, her grandfather almost dead from rheumatism and she herself ill and suffering from hunger. Miss Aldrich was much moved by the tale of mis- fortune and called the girl into her house. She gave her a meal and some clothes and a generous sum of money for her immediate necessities. She promised also to find her work. After the girl left Miss Aldrich began to wonder if she had done her full duty in so distressing a case. Should she not have sent something to the rheumatic old grandfather? She decided affirmatively and told the cook to put some food in a basket. Then she ordered her pony chaise and drove to the address given by the girl. There was no house there. She searched the neighborhood and finally learned from a police- man that the girl was an impostor and the rheumatic grand- Sixth Generation. 193 father a myth. So she gave the meal to an old negro woman who lived near by and drove home. Then she formulated this rule, which guides her now in all her charitable work : 'Never give even five cents to a mendicant until you have investigated the story. In benevolent enterprises the greatest benevolence is to punish the unworthy and thus protect the deserving cases of charity.' Undoubtedly in the great affairs with which Miss Aldrich will be connected after she becomes Mrs. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., she will follow this rule. Her tastes are so entirely in harmony with those of her future husband that the benevolences which they will institute will be carried out on the lines already indicated by the senior Rockefeller. It is understood that Mr. Rockefeller and Miss Aldrich have been lovers for some years and that the engagement has existed for some time. Nearly a year ago Senator Aldrich hinted some- thing of the kind to his intimates in the Senate. Miss Aldrich is not particularly fond of outdoor sports, although she shares Mr. Rockefeller's love for horses. She golfs a little and can swim and sail a small boat. She much prefers to read a solid work or an educational topic than to dance or attend a dinner party. She is tall, graceful and a charming talker. Just now she is at Greenwich, R. I., where Senator Aldrich has a summer home. Her social ideas may be summed up in the statement that although she is but a few miles from Newport and its gayeties she never goes there." 3642. l/ucy W. 3650. Hon. Benjamin Cummings Truman.

I had a boy born in San Diego in 1870, who died in Los Angeles in 1871. Georgie was born in Los Angeles in 1873. My wife's great-great-great-grandfather on her father's side was Captain Eugene Maillard of Lafayette's staff, and her great-great-grandfather was a sergeant in the war of 18 12, and was killed at the battle of Tippecanoe. He was a Virginian. I would like to know if any of our fathers' fathers were "in it". The first twelve lines of the following letter refers to a news- paper article written in Los Angeles, Cal., and printed in a New York paper : Los Angeles, Nov. 12, 1897. My Dear Jim : — Yours came safely to hand with enclosure. It wasn't so bad after all, and much of it was true, especially regarding their soldiers and some of the so-called "Castilians". But there were quite a number of very nice people here before those last comers during the boom, of which the writer thinks brought the better classes. He undoubtedly considers himself one of the crdme de la cre'me. On the whole he was a little too severe. I really appreciated your pedigree search, which seems to be complete. Of course dur- Sixth Generation. 197 ing the past thirty-five years a great many persons of our name have ■come from Ireland and England, but none are of much account. Our family is certainly one of the oldest American families, and although there never has been any criminals or scrubs in it, it has probably improved with every generation up to our own. I see that my name occupies about thirty lines in Appleton's Biographical Encyclopedia, and mention is made of me as an author and soldier in the Brittanica. Here are some of the positions I have occupied, which, as you have taken so much pains to get the records, I will let you know : Benjamin Cummings Truman. Born in Providence, R. I., Oct. 25, 1835. Graduated in high school studies at age of 13. Went to Shaker School in Canterbury, N. H., until I was 17, then taught school No. 9 of Merrimack Co. for one year. 1854 worked at printing business in Providence. 1855 went to New York, and set type and read proof on N. Y.

In other words, we are in good circumstances. Am now managing a fine newspaper in Los Angeles. Have one child, a daughter, twenty-four years old. I believe that gives you my record up to date. It is accurate, so far as I can remember, and I think there is no mistake in dates ; if there were, though, that would be no disturbing feature. My brother Johnnie was born in Providence in 1846, studied in college and in Europe, and graduated from the Columbian Law Col- lege, and was attorney for the lUinois and Rarid & McNally. He made a fortune in Chicago at law in six years. Was the author of two law books and died in 1881 of pneumonia, leaving a wife and four children. His name was John Henry Truman, my only brother.

(Lafayette Lepine,^ AshbeP, Abner," John,^ Joseph,' Joseph.') 1805! He was born Dec. 13, 1850., at Ithaca, N. Y. He prepared at Eaglewood Military Insti- tute, Perth Amboy, N. J., and the Vermont Episcopal Institute at Burlington, Vt., and' attended Cornell University, 1868-9. He mar- ried (ist) April 22, 1884, Eugenie MacMahan (daughter of Oliver MacMahan, of Lyons, la.). She was born in 1861. She died August 17, i885. He married (2nd) April 23, 1891, Isabelle Norwood (adopted daughter of Miles L. Clinton, instructor in Cornell University, of Ithaca, N". Y.). While in college he was a member of the Chi Phi Greek-letter fraternity, and as a local alumnus, has given much time and financial support to the Cornell chapter, which has one of the finest homes among American colleges. While in college he was a member of the crew of the Sprague Boat Club and he was also a member of the University Baseball Club. He was afterwards a mem- ber of the old Ithaca Baseball Club. After leaving college he at once entered the hardware store of Treman, King & Co. to prepare himself for an active business career in which he has been eminently success- ful owing to natural ability of a high" order and the training of a father who was the equal of any in business ability ever in this part of our State. Under his father's guidance also, and by his advice, he severed his connection with the store, after a few years' service, and entered the office of the Ithaca Gas Light Company and the Ithaca Water Works Company, of both of which companies his father was long Presideiit, and with these companies he has since remained, a period of over fifteen years, he having been, however, promoted to Secretary and Superintendent, which positions he successfully filled many years, and to the Presidency of both companies, upon the death of 200 History of the Treman Family. his father, in 1900. He was also elected a Director of the Tompkins County National Bank to succeed his father, in 1900. He is also a Director in the Ithaca Trust Company. Aside from his business duties he has found exercise for other talents ; being a musician himself, and intensely interested in the subject, he has found ways in which to use his knowledge and wealth, to contribute not only to the gratification of his own artistic tastes but to contribute, through the channels of music, to the value of the work of his church, and to the pleasure of his fellow citizens. He is undisputably the leading musi- cian and patron of music in Ithaca and that part of the State. He was one of the founders of the old Mozart Club, and its successor, the Ithaca Choral Club, taking an active part in its productions and giving it loyal support. He at an early age took entire charge, as choirmaster, of the music of St. John's Protestant Episcopal church of Ithaca and the fame of its choir has been treasured as a memory by thousands of students of Cornell in every part of the world. It was through his efforts that the church has had for several years one of the best organs procurable. He was elected a Vestryman in St. John's P. E. church to succeed his father in 1900. He several years ago saw the need of a new Opera House in Ithaca, and while it did not promise, and has not realized, a profit to its promoters, yet prompted by a public spirit, worthy of emulation, he and a few other men of wealth, mostly in his own family, erected one of the finest play-houses in the State, at a cost of over sixty thousand dollars, that the college town might have some attractive place of assembly ; of this, the Lyceum Company, he has been President since its organization. Not content in his many activities thus far in the musical line, he deter- mined that Ithaca should have a band — not an ordinary band of the brass variety — but a band that, would be the pride of its citizens wherever it should appear. This desire has been more than realized. The Ithaca Band is known favorably all over the country, having taken prizes in numerous contests with other famous bands, and filled an engagement of one week, August 6-1 1, 1901, at the Pan- American Exposition. Its success is largely due to his judicious advice and firm financial support and knowledge of music and musi- cians. He has accumulated, with discriminating judgment and at large expense, one of the finest general and musical libraries in the country, and wrote a manuscript History of Music in four volumes Seventh Generation. 201 which has been beautifully embellished. He early took an interest in his family history and its achievements and spent much time in the collection of data relating to the family, till the pressure of business necessitated that he turn it over to another to complete, and the result is seen in the present volume, which shows an evidence of public spirit and unusual interest in one's family. In "Landmarks of Tompkins County, N. Y.," will be found a well written short his- tory of the family from his pen, which shows much research and is a valuable contribution to both family and local history. He has always taken an active interest in Democratic politics but has invaria- bly declined political office. He is a member of Knights of Pythias, St. Augustine Commandery, Knights Templar, and the Odd Fellows fraternities, and Tornado Hook and Ladder Company. "Landmarks of Tompkins County" says of him : "He became associated with the large interests of his father, though not a member of the hardware firm. He is secretary and superintendent of both the Water and Gas Companies, positions which require executive ability of a high order and fully occupy his time. He is also president of the recently (1894) formed Lyceum Company, and the erection of the new theatre in Ithaca is the reali- zation of plans which he has had under consideration for many years. He is a young man of popular social qualities and highly esteemed in the business circles of his native city." Residence, 1901, Ithaca, N. Y. 4005. John Sayles Waterman. He was born at Smithfield, Providence County, R. I. He graduated at Cornell University, 1877. While in college he was a member of the Theta Delta Chi fraternity. He was a member of the victorious Cornell 'Varsity crew at Saratoga Lake in 1875. He married Jeannie Mead Treman. i8o6. He was engaged for several years in the manufacture of agricultural imple- ments under the firm name of Treman, Waterman & Co. at Ithaca. At the time of his death the Ithaca Daily Journal said of him : "He was not only a close student while in the University but a fine athlete as well, and much of the credit of the Cornell crew's famous victories at Saratoga was due to his prowess, he pulling bow oar in those memorable contests. Some of his friends are of the 202 History of the Treman Family. opinion that his early physical decline was attributable to his over- exertion in those races. After finishing his studies, Mr; Waterman became interested in business here as a member of the firm of Treman, Waterman & Co." He died March lo, 1891, at Pittsford, Vt.

Matthews, resigned. Mrs. Bush was appointed by the Board of Directors of the Pan- American Exposition on the recommendation of President John G. Milburn.

"The resignation of Mrs. Matthews and the appointment of Mrs. Bush were acted upon by the Board of Directors at its last meeting. Mrs. Bush is a member of the Twentieth Century Club and also of the Graduates' Association. She has been an active worker in the Graduates' Association, especially for one year, when she was the efficient Chairman of the Study Committee. She is one of the best- known women in Buffalo."

Beers & Co., Chicago, 1899: "Professor Beal's boyhood was spent on the farm with one year in the grist mill. When seventeen years of age the opening of Raisin Valley Seminary', four miles northeast of Adrian, afforded him an opportunity for advanced study, and in 1855, he spent some months in completing a preparation for college at Lodi Academy, Lodi, Michigan (long ago closed). On October i, 1855, he entered the classical course in the University of Michigan, where he was gradu- PROF. WILLIAM J. BEAL Seventh Generation. 233 ated in 1859 with the degree of A.B. At once he became teacher of Natural Science in Friends' Academy, Union Springs, Cayuga County, New York, remaining there until March, 1861, when he entered the Lawrence Scientific School of Harvard University, remaining for one and one-half years, studying Botany, Zoology and Comparative Anatomy, under Gray, Agassiz and Wyman. In 1863, he became teacher of Natural Science in Rowland School at Union Springs, New York, remaining until the summer of 1868, with the exception of one term of the spring of 1865 at Harvard, where in that year he graduated with the degree of Sc.B. He was the Professor of Natural History from 1869 to 187 1 at the University of Chicago, and lecturer in many schools and some academies and colleges. In 1870 he was lecturer in Botany; 1871, Professor of Botany, and from 1871 to 1 88 1 he was Professor of Botany and Horticulture in the Michigan State Agricultural College, and has since held his present position. He was also one of the professors connected with the Botanical Department of the Correspondence University, started at Ithaca, New York, and later removed to Chicago, where it has since been dis- continued. "Our subject received the degree of A.M. in the course from the University, in 1862, Ph.D. (honorary) University of Michigan, in 1880, and Sc.M. (honorary) University of Chicago in 1875. In the various societies with which he has united he has always been recog- nized as a leader. While in the University of Michigan he was a charter member of XI Chapter of Zeta Psi fraternity, and its first president during its senior year. He is a fellow of theA. A. A.

He has also prepared several papers for the reports of the American Pomological Society and also edited two volumes, 1881 and 1885. He has been a frequent contributor to the American Naturalist, New York Tribune, Scientific Farmer, Prairie Farmer, Rural New Yorker, American Garden, Philadelphia Press, Farm Home Journal, Illinois Teacher, Michigan Teacher, Michigan School Moderator, and an occasional writer for numerous other papers, including the American Journal of Science, The Micro- scope, Garden and Forest, Mechanical Engin-eering, State Teachers' Association, while he has written many papers for the A.

"Born a Quaker, Professor Beal has never joined anv religious society, while politically he is a Temperance Republican." The Cyclopedia of American Biographies, by John Howard Brown, says of him : "William James Beal, botanist, was born at Adrian, Mich., March II, 1833. He was fitted for college at the Raisin Valley Seminary, and entered the University of Michigan in 1855, graduating in 1859. He then taught school for about three years, and in 1862 entered Harvard University, where he took a post-graduate course under Agassiz and Gray. In 1868 he accepted the professorship of Natural History in the University of Chicago, and in 1870 he was given the chair of Botany and Horticulture in the Michigan Agricultural Col- lege, which he held until 1883, when he was transferred to the pro- fessorship of Botany and Forestry. He became a member of numerous scientific societies, and contributed many original papers to the American Naturalist, the American Journal of Science, and to the Seventh Generation. 235 reports of the Michigan Board of Agriculture and the several state societies. In 1875 he made a collection of grasses and woods for the Centennial exhibition at Philadelphia, which received much atten- tion and won two diplomas. He was president of the Michigan State: Teachers' Association in 1881, and president of the Society for the Promotion of Agricultural Science in 1880-81. He published "A New Botany" (1881) and "The Grasses of North America," both of which are highly esteemed by scientific men. Speaking of the latter work, Prof. A. J. Cook says : 'He is without doubt the best authority on the Graminece in the United States and one of the highest -authorities in the world. His work on this family of plants is not only scientific and exhaustive, but is wonderfully accurate, so that the practical man LTio:Nr. 1 1820. John Mack. (John.) 11801.

He removed to Middlefield, Mass., in 1776. Selectman, 1783-4; 1787-8. Representative, 1811—12. Professor William S. Tyler's History of Amherst College says of him : "Col. David Mack was a truly Christian patriarch who left to his numerous descendants and to society the fragrant memory of a life of ninety-four years consecrated to piety and usefulness — was the subject of that well-known and highly instructive tract, entitled 'The Faithful Steward'. No one could see him for once and converse with him on the most casual subject without feeling that he was a genuine descendant and representative of the Pilgrim Fathers of New England.. And those who knew him most intimately, knew that he was just what he seemed, a living impersonation of their characteristic virtues. Gen. Mack himself was the worthy son of that worthy sire." The following is taken from the tract entitled, "Col. David Mack, the Faithful Steward". "He was of Puritan descent ; his ancestors were noble ones, for the blood of the Pilgrims ran in their veins and the love of the Pil- grims' God burned in their hearts. 358 History op the Mack Family. "Col. Mack and his wife had each fifteen brothers and sisters ; and Jabez Ellis his maternal uncle, lived till he was one hundred years and forty days old, and was connected with his wife in marriage seventy-six years. "In those days, family government had not changed hands ; children were subject to their parents. But not so all ; there were some who, like the sons of Eli, made themselves vile and were not restrained ; and it was among such, that Col. Mack was situated in his youth. But his parents prevented him from running to the same excess of riot. "They absolutely debarred him from attending the fairs, horse races, dances and other amusements in which his neighbors freely indulged. "And when David — feeling as he' did, that this separating him from all associates, was upreasonable and unjust — ventured to remon- strate with his father, as they were together in the field, the reply of the good man was, 'My son, I do this to. save you from ruin; for mark me, those young men will assuredly eome to a bad end.' This prophetic speech was sadly and literally fulfilled ; three of them expiated their crimes on the gallows, others were sent to the state prison, and all came to a lamentable and disgraceful end. "Not so with him who was trained in the way he should go, and did not depart from it when he was old. He honored his father and mother, and his days were long in the land, which the Lord gave him ; and that too, notwithstanding imminent exposure to death. "As he removed his family from Hebron to Middlefield, in crossing the river at Norwich, the unexpectedly high water swept them rapidly down the current, to the point of being carried over the dam ; when looking for death, and the spectators giving them up for lost. Providence, at the moment of despair, ordered a way for their escape safe to land. "Afterwards, as he was hiinting in the deep snow in pursuit of a large deer, the animal suddenly turned on him, pressed its antlers against his breast, and set its fore feet on both his snowshoes, holding him fast ; and thus crippled, it was with difficulty that he got in hand his hunting-knife, and with his utmost remaining krength, drew it across the deer's throat, when the animal struck him with the hind foot a terrible blow upon one of his temples, which completely stunned Fourth Generation. 359 and almost killed him. As near as he could judge, he lay senseless about an hour. Oft recovering, his first thdlight was, 'I am dead !' but rising up, he found that the deer was dead and lying prostrate at his feet. "Thus was he delivered out of his distresses, that he might serve his generation by the will of God, and that God might fulfill the promise of long life to one who honored his parents, not only while they lived, but long after they had departed this life. And not only did Colonel Mack honor his parents 'he rose up before the hoary head, and honored the face of the old man'. While yet a youth, an aged man of choleric temper had, from some unknown cause, con- tracted towards him a strong dislike. Meeting him one day, Mr. Mack saluted him respectfully, but received only the unkind reply, 'Don't speak to me.' 'I shall speak to you,' said he, 'for I have always been accustomed to respect age, and I always intend to do it.' This changed his churlishness towards him ever after into civility ; thus exemplifying the truth that, 'a soft answer turneth away wrath'. It may be remarked that this respect for his parents and the aged was a result of parental fidelity. "The son, thus faithfully dealt with, was in his turn faithful in all his house. He, too, ruled well, having his children in subjection. 'My father,' says one of them, 'excelled in government. He never inflicted punishment without fully setting forth the criminality of the offense and its evil consequences, calmly and coolly, without excite- ment or passion ; but he did not desist till there was a perfect yield- ing, a full confession and promise of amendment ; and would often add, 'It is because I love you that I punish.' " 'We were,' he continues, 'kept in on the Sabbath, and taught the catechism and had other religious instruction, which he faithfully imparted. He never allowed his children to be absent in the even- ing without his permission, and he required their return by nine o'clock. And not only did he command his children but his house- hold. He had for several years twenty or more in his family in the summer, and in the most hurrying time of business he insisted that all under his care should be present at family devotions, and attend public worship on the Sabbath. If a hired man persisted in using profane language he dismissed him.' "Such fidelity in the stewardship God crowned with his blessing. 360 History of the Mack Family. He gave him thirteen children, three sons and ten daughters, all of ■whom lived to be married, and twelve of them became members of the church of Christ. They are honored of God and their country, and their children in their turn are rising up and calling them blessed. His descendants, living and dead were, at the time of his decease, about two hundred ; there were eight or ten of the fifth generation his grandchildren's grandchildren. These, as well as his other relatives, he regarded as a high trust, concerning which God would require an account of his stewardship. For their temporal and spir- itual welfare, he labored, prayed and counselled. As evidence of this and of his general Christian character, a few extracts will here be given from letters written in the later period of his life, for he brought forth fruit in old age. "Writing to a child, December 10, 1824, he says: 'By the grace of God, I have been carried through the various stages of manhood, and am this day seventy-four years old. I have set apart this day for prayer, and have been reading the forty-second Psalm. I have enjoyed in some measure the light of God's countenance. O, it is good to draw nigh to God, for he has styled himself a prayer-hearing God ; and never said to the seed of Jacob, seek my face in vain.' "'December 12, Lord's Day. I had great desire to enjoy the light of God's countenance, for which I attempted to pray ; and I think my poor feeble attempts were not in vain. My enjoyment con- tinued through the day and evening. Thanks to Almighty God, that he can subdue the hardest heart and bring such sinful rebels as I am to bow before him. When I look back on my life and see how I have lived, more than forty years since I experienced religion, if indeed I ever did, I have reason to blush and be ashamed and repent in dust and ashes. I feel that I have more reason to be thankful to God, than any of the sinful race. If he should see fit to continue me in life, my prayer to him is, that he would make me more faithful in his service, and that the remainder of my days may be filled up with duty and usefulness to God and man.' "In 1832 he writes : 'Alas ! my dear children, with shame and confusion of face, I am often confessing before the throne of grace, that when I would do good, evil is present with me ; that while I delight in the law after the inner man, I am so drawn aside by my indwelling corruptions, the snares of the world and Satan's tempta- Fourth Generation. 361 tions, that were it not for a strong belief, that I have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous, who is the propriation for our sins, and the sins of the whole world, I could have no confidence towards God, being condemned by my own heart. In short, I can do no other, than allow, that all my best services are defiled with sin, and need to be washed in that fountain, which the Lord has opened for sin and uncleanness.' "In 1835 he wrote to a brother : 'For many years I have thought much on the importance of being prepared for death ; but it appears to me that during the last year, I have grown more in the knowledge of Christ than in any previous year of my life. I can say in my most favored moments, I know him, I love him, I am his and he is mine. No name awakens such tender and interesting feelings in my mind as his ; nor is there any being in the universe, whom I so much delight to honor or desire to see. And why should it not be so? We are under greater obligations to him than to all the world besides. We have more to do with him, every day of our lives, than with any other being in the universe. No being in heaven so much beloved as he is ; none has manifested such love towards us as he has. No wonder that our heart and flesh should cry out for him. " 'My dear brother, if you and I are what we profess to be, we shall be in a short time with him, where he is, to behold his glory, which he had with the Father, before the world was. Although my health is good, my reason tells me, the time I have to stay here is short. I often look over my life, to see if I have done anything on which I could place the least dependence, viewing it as righteous in the sight of a holy God ; but comparing my life with his holy word, I am constrained to say that in all things I have come short of my duty. I have nowhere to go but to God through Christ, and plead for mercy in his name.' "Again he writes Dec. 10, 1835 : 'My dear children, I am this day eighty-five years old. I have spent most of the day in calling to mind the numerous blessings of which God, in his holy providence, has made me the unworthy partaker, and in reading and meditating upon the 25th and 29th chapters of Genesis, the 34th chapter of Exodus, 32d of Deuteronomy, and the two last chapters of Joshua. I enjoy good health, and have attended meeting every Sabbath this season. When I call to mind what God has done for me, and what 362 History of the Mack Family. miserable improvement I have made of his numerous mercies, I have great reason to be humbled before him.' " 'December 31, 1835. In the good providence of God, I am brought to the close of another year. There is no closing year in eternity. The solemn influence of this season is among the means of grace connected with a probationary state. " 'My dear children, it becomes you and me, faithfully to exam- ine the foundation of our hope, and see to it, that we are not deceived ; that when God shall call us hence we may be prepared for the sum- mons ; our work done, and well done, for which 'the time is short.' " 'January i, 1836. I have been loudly admonished the year past by the deaths of many aged friends. I am the oldest man in town — there is not one living who was here when I came. In one sense I am almost alone ; in another, I am not alone. I enjoy the presence and smiles of my Saviour in my room, which is the best of company. I have great enjoyment on the Sabbath, in going to the house of God, in hearing- the Gospel, and in visiting my Christian friends on week days. If I am not deceived my evidences for heaven are brighter, and my Eaith stronger as I advance in life. " 'Yet, many times I see myself to be so great a sinner, it seems impossible I should be of that happy number whose sins are forgiven. And yet, I do not despair of mercy on account of the greatness of my sins, for I firmly believe that the atonement which Christ has made is sufficient to atone for my sins and for the sins of the whole world; He 'came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance,' such as feel themselves to be sinners, old sinners.' "In 1836 he thus addressed his grandchildren: 'Mv dear and much esteemed grandchildren : — God, in his holy providence, has lengthened out my unprofitable life much longer than I expected. He has bestowed upon me many blessings. My health is as good as it ever was. I can read with spectacles and some without. My hear- ing is perfect. Although my health is good, my reason tells me I have but a short time to stay in this world of trouble and sin. May I so live, that when God calls me home, to be here no more, I may be found watching, and enabled through grace in Christ Jesus, to give up joyfully my spirit to him who gave it. " 'It is uncertain whether you will ever hear from your aged grandfather again in this way ; will you therefore, my dear grand- Fourth Generation. 363 children, allow me to give you a few words of advice ? I have great concern for your temporal and spiritual good; and knowing, as I do from experience, how liable young people are to go astray, from the commands of God, into forbidden paths, I would warn you of your danger. Be careful what company you associate with, for such will be your character. " 'Never marry for riches or beauty, for beauty is vain and riches take to themselves wings and fly away. Exercise judgment. Be well acquainted with the temper and disposition of your intended bosom friend before you decide. Lay hand suddenly on no one. When you commence housekeeping, be careful to erect the family altar. " 'Let me enjoin it upon you, often to read your Bible, with prayer to God, for a right understanding of what you read. Be always ready to do your part in supporting the Gospel. The man who is not willing to support the Gospel, cannot, with propriety, be called a good member of society. " 'Despise not the poor, because he is poor. The great object of our existence is to glorify God, in whom we live and have our being, and who bestows all our comforts. Take heed that you faith- fully perform all the duties and business of life, from a regard to his commands and with reference to his glory. We are placed in this world to labor for him, (not to become rich and great), and to do all the good we can. Let it be your aim to have the glory of God as your ultimate end in all you do. I desire to commit you to, and leave you with, the Father of all mercies and God of all grace. " 'That you may be directed safely through an evil world to God's heavenly kingdom, is the sincere prayer of your aged grand- father, David Mack.' "By such counsels as these, and a corresponding example, and' fervent prayers, he was a faithful steward in the care of the children which God gave him, and also of his children's children ; and this labor was not in vain in the Lord, for most of his grandchildren are hopefully pious. "Col. Mack's early advantages were very limited, for previous to his marriage he had been' to school but six weeks. He once expos- tulated with his father because he did not give him more opportunity to attend school. His father rephed, 'David, I never went to school but three weeks in my life ; you have been six and ought to be satis- 364 History of the Mack Family. fied.' But this did not satisfy him. He afterwards went to the common school of those days with his own children, and spelled in the same class with his son David who was six years old. "Thus improving his mind, Col. Mack increased in understand- ing. He kept along with the progress of the times. He was a friend and patron of learning, and gave large sums in aid of public seminaries. He assisted indigent young men in their studies, and offered his three sons a liberal education. "His life is identified with the entire history of the town in which he lived ; in his prime he was prominent in all its public affairs, con- stantly filling some office of trust and honor, as selectman, assessor, justice of the peace, representative to the legislature, colonel of the militia and deacon of the church. To this last office he was early appointed, and served in it acceptably until he resigned at seventy- five years of age. "It was principally by his agency that Middlefield was incorpor- ated into a town, the advantages of which were from the first foreseen by him. Having obtained a knowledge of the region while hunting, and defined the boundaries for a new town, he called a meeting of the citizens to consider the matter. They approved the object, but dreaded the expense and the opposition of the interested towns. He told them he would undertake the business ; if successful, they should defray the expenses ; if he failed, the loss should be his own. They consented, and he succeeded. The act of incorporation was granted March 12, 1783. It was also mainly through his agency, that the meeting house was erected in 1791. Previous to this reli- gious meetings were held in his barn and large chambers of his house, and town meetings in his kitchen. He occupied the pew in which he was first seated, fifty-four years, during which period more than thirty, who were at different times his seat mates, deceased. "He attended constantly on divine worship. He was not afraid of the snow and vapor, the stormy wind, rain or distance. He was glad to go ; he was joyful in God's house ; he sat there with great delight, and the preaching seemed better and better. Col. Mack had a heart for it ; and for years, until there Was a religious society in Middlefield, he went, on foot, to Chester, six miles, during a great portion of the year. And, in the winter's cold on those mountains, he frequently went with an ox sled, carrying his own and his neigh- Fourth -Generation. 365 bors' families. This occupied him from sunrise to sunset, and fre- quently longer. "He had a strong constitution, good health, a keen discernment, sound judgment and untiring industry. Besides the land on which he settled, then a wilderness, he used facetiously to say, that when he removed to Middlefield, his property consisted of a poor horse, an axe and his wife and child. "Thus it was not much that he had to begin with ; but he was industrious, economical and faithful ; so prompt in the payment of his debts, that no one, in any instance during his long business life, called for money due from him, without his paying it ; a peculiar excellence and worthy of all imitation. "He was a merchant as well as a farmer ; and he established many young men in the mercantile business in the adjacent towns. He also established in business the first blacksmith, the first boot and shoemaker, and first saddle and harness maker who followed their respective trades in Middlefield. "In those days it was not customary to promote benevolent enterprises, but he was in advance of the times in which he lived. In large sums he bestowed more than eighteen thousand dollars ; and his smaller offerings, to promote human welfare, are supposed to have been not less than eighteen thousand dollars more. He was one of the founders of the Hampshire Missionary Society ; and he made himself, by his contributions, a life member of twelve benevo- lent societies ; and, at a period when it was regarded as doubtful whether all the missionary societies in the country could support one missionary in a foreign land, he removed that doubt by a donation of one thousand dollars, which, at that time, was an almost unparalleled act of liberality. "In the year 1814, he presented each of his children with a set of Scott's Family Bible, which cost him three hundred and sixty dol- lars. He left for the church and society, of which he had so long been a member, a fund of three thousand dollars for the support of the Gospel, in all coming time. "Col. Mack was not too faithful. He felt that he had done too little for the Savior who died for him. His hope was in Christ and in him alone. He felt himself to be nothing but a sinner saved by grace. He lived till satisfied with long life. Though his hearing 366 History of the Mack Family. "was yet perfect, and his eye scarcely dim, and his natural force not much abated, he did not wish to live longer ; his days were full, his work was done, he chose to depart, 'and he was not for God took him.'

He, while a merchant at Cooperstown, had a contract in 1799 with the government to furnish about 100,000 spars,, to be delivered at Baltimore. In March of that year a freshet in the Sus- quehanna river carried away all the timber, which he had purchased and paid for in goods out of his store, and made him a bankrupt. He removed in 1799 to Owego, N. Y. He engaged again in the mer- cantile business. He purchased, in 1805, the American Farmer printing office, and published the newspaper until his death. He was a prominent and influential citizen. Justice of the Peace. Supervisor, 1807-8, 1811-12. First Judge of Broome County, N. Y., 1812-14. He was a member of the Masonic fraternity, and Aug. 28, 1804, was one of the petitioners for a lodge at Owego. He was a taxable inhabitant of the Town of Tioga, Tioga County, N. Y., in 1802. He died April 14 (o. 16), 1814, at Owego, N. Y. His second wife Mary died Feb, 20, 1862, at the same place. "Stephen Mack was born in New Marlborough, Mass., March 20th, 1766. He was twice married; first to Mary Chambers, who died while they resided at or near Cooperstown, leaving four children, Elizabeth, Stephen, Phoebe and Ebenezer. Subsequently he married in 1797 at Cooperstown, N. Y., Mary Serjants, daughter of Lemuel Serjants then recently from Bellows Falls, Vt. She survived him nearly half a century and died at Owego February 20th, 1862. By his second wife he had two children, Horace and Maria. Mr. Mack removed to Owego in 1799 and soon became one of the most active and prominent citizens. We find it recorded that 'in the early settle- ment of Owego he held the office of Commissioner of Highways, Assessor, Excise Commissioner and Constable and that he repre- sented the town of Owego on the Board of Supervisors in 1807, 1808, 1811, 1812. He also served several years as Justice of the Peace. From Nov. 11, 181 2, until his death which occurred at Owego, April 1 6th, 18 1 4, he held the office of First Judge of Common Pleas of the County of Broome under a commission from Governor Tompkins. " 'Sometime previous to 1807 he became the publisher of the American Farmer which he continued until his death, but in the few copies of this paper that time has spared we find little or nothing by way of editorial to give a clue to his cast of mind, political bent or literary ability.

" The following is from Gay's Historical Gazetteer of Tioga County : "Judge Stephen Mack, the second newspaper publisher in Owego, was born in Massachusetts March 20, 1766. In 1799, while keeping a general country store in Cooperstown, N. Y., he made a contract with the United States government to furnish about 100,000 spars, to be delivered at Baltimore, Md. He purchased the timber in the winter, paying for it in goods from his store. In March, 1799, while about to start it down the river there came a great freshet, carrying away and scattering along the stream all of his timber. He came down the river to Owego in quest of his property, but ascer- taining that it would cost him as much to secure it as it would be worth when gathered together again, he abandoned his search. The loss of his timber made him a bankrupt. "During his sojourn in Owego he had become impressed with the beauty^ of the Susquehanna valley and its apparent advantages to settlers, and he at once returned here to live. He was a man of great vigor, enterprise and ability, and he at once became an active and prominent citizen. He engaged in the mercantile business, in which he was successful. He was prominent in public affairs and held the offices of commissioner of highways, assessor, excise com- missioner and constable, and he represented the town of Owego in the board of supervisors in 1807, 1808, 1811 and 1812. He also served several years as justice of the peace. From 1812 to 1815 he was first judge of the court of common pleas of the county of Tioga. He died in Owego April 16, 1814, in the 49th year of his age. His remains were interred in the old burying ground in Court Street. They were afterward removed to the Presbyterian yard in Temple Street. In 1875 they were again removed to Evergreen cemetery." The following is a copy of his commission as County Judge : "The People of the State of New York by the grace of God free and independent.

"Daniel D. Tompkins. "Passed the Secretary's Office the nth day of November, 1812. "Arch. Campbell, "Dep. Secretary." At the time of her death the "Owego Gazette" of Feb'y 27th, 1862, said : "Departed this life on Thursday, the 20th inst., at the residence of her son-in-law, John Carmichael, Esq., Mrs. Mary Mack, aged 83 years, consort of Hon. Stephen Mack, one of the early residents of this Village. Indeed, he may almost be said to have been a pioneer in this locality, for he settled here as early as 1799. Partaking in a large degree of the elements of personal popularity, and combining talent with conceded integrity and purity of purpose, he was among the most prominent of the public men of this section of our State, and filled many stations of honor and public trust. His family con- sisted of three sons and three daughters : Stephen, Ebenezer, Horace, Betsey, Phoebe and Maria. The three former resided many years in the Village of Ithaca, Tompkins County, and were among the most useful and respectable of the citizens of that place. The eldest was Fourth Generation. 373 a lawyer by profession, the second edited for a long period a public paper and subsequently was elected to the Senate of this State, and the third was distinguished for his moral worth and business capacity as a merchant. The eldest daughter, Betsey, married Benjamin Benedict, Esq., for many years a resident of the county of Delaware, some time since deceased. Phoebe, a Mr. Crawford, and Maria, the youngest, was the former wife of Mr. Carmichael. She died at Owego, N. Y., Sept. 22, 1829, 8 p. m., ae. 29 y. 2 ms. 22 d. These children are all dead with the exception of Mrs. Benedict. Judge Mack died in 18 14, and the subject of this notice has remained his widow from that time down to the period of her death. Blest by nature with a strong constitution, and possessing great physical and mental energy, she seemed admirably calculated for the labors and responsibilities incident to her early life ; and, indeed, she retained those qualities until within a short period before its close. In the year 1818, she united herself with the Presbyterian Church in this village, and it may with much truth be said that her daily walk and conversation have been in conformity with her profession. In a conversation with her pastor, a few days before her death, she expressed a full confidence in her religious faith, but seemed to enter- tain some dread as to the moment of conflict when the soul was to separate from the body. We are happy to learn, however, that before the hour of dissolution came, her mind was at rest upon that point, and that nine o'clock on the evening of the day already announced, she feel quietly asleep, in the arms, as we trust, of her Saviour and Redeemer : — 'Mild as a saint, whose errors are forgiven ; •Calm as a vestal, and composed as Heaven.'

The following letter refers to his appointment as Commissioner of the Supreme Court : "Albany, 19 Dec, 1838.

I will return Judge Dana's resignation if I can lay my hands on it. At all events he may consider it not accepted. It will not be handed over to my successor without his direction. Yours, &c., W. L. Marcy." At the time of his death the "Tompkins County Democrat" said : "Died, in the Village of Ithaca, on the 7th of January, 1857, of consumption, Stephen Mack, aged 72 years. His funeral will be attended at 10 A. M. of Friday next from the residence of Mrs. E. Mack. Stephen Mack was born December 29th, 1784, at Kinderhook, N. Y., and therefore at the date of his death, was about 72 years of age. He graduated at Yale College almost half a century ago, having belonged to the class of 1813, of which Senator Badger, of North Carolina, Fourth Generation. 377 is one of the few surviving members. He studied law with Samuel Sherwood, of Delhi, N. Y., and, upon the death of his father, moved to Owego, from whence, about the year 1816, he came to Ithaca, and commenced the practice of law, which he continued until the period of his death. He was never married. As a lawyer he was methodical, diligent and learned, and often- times in a case requiring great study, care and investigation, a formidable adversary. Quiet and retired in his habits he min- gled little with the world, and gave almost his entire time to study and reflection. His illness was brief, originating in a sudden cold, and rapidly advanced to a fatal termination. In his death another of the links binding the present to the past has been rudely sundered. He was a brother of Ebenezer and Horace Mack, who, though younger in years, preceded him to the grave, and whose memories yet linger freshly among us. Now all are gone, and we shall see their familiar and accus- tomed faces no more among the scenes of life." The same issue of "Tompkins County Democrat" said : "At a meeting of the Bar of Tompkins County, held January 8th, 1857, upon occasion of the decease of Stephen Mack, Caleb B. Drake was appointed chairman, and Amasa Dana, secretary. Upon mo- tion, Messrs. B. G. Ferris, Alfred Welles and F. M. Finch were appointed to draft appropriate resolutions, upon whose report the following were unanimously adopted : Resolved, That in the removal by death of our professional brother, Stephen Mack, we feel called upon to pay that respect to his memory which his character deserves as one of the oldest members of the Tompkins Bar — as a diligent student, a learned lawyer, an honorable practitioner, and an honest man.

He was born June 30, 1803, in New York City. His father, Jacob Hallock, of the Southold, L. I. family of that name, was a merchant in New York City until his death in 18 13. Lewis prepared at Clinton Academy, E. Hampton, studied medicine with his uncle. Dr. Elisha Hallock of Southold, L. I., N. Y., and with Dr. John W. Francis of New York City, and graduated at the College of Physicians and Surgeons in New York City, 1826. He married (ist), Feb. 7, 1827, Susan Mack. 13086. She died Aug. 11, 1832. He practiced allopathy fifteen years and in 1846 joined the Ainerican Homeopathic Institute. He 392 History op the Mack Family. was offered twice a professorship in the Homeopathic Medical Col- lege in New York City, was Censor many years and received from that institution the degree of M. D. in 1876. The National Cyclopedia of American Biography says : "Hallock, Lewis. He was born June 30, 1803, in New York City, son of Jacob and Sarah (Mather) Hallock. His father, a native of Southold, L. I., was a prominent merchant in New York until his death in 1813. The family descends from Peter Hallock, leader of a colony ; the first white settlers on the eastern end of Long Island, where they purchased a large tract of land from the Indians and founded the town of Southold. After the death of his father, Lewis Hallock went to Uve with his grandmother at Matti- tuck, L. I., and completed his preparatory education at Clinton Academy, the second incorporated school in the State. He began the study of medicine with his uncle, Dr. Elisha Hallock, of Southold, and at the end of the year returned to New York City to continue his preparation under Dr. James W. Francis and at the College of Physicians and Surgeons, where he was graduated M. D., in 1825. After fifteen years of successful practice, his attention was called to the homeopathic system of medicine, then rapidly gaining strength in America, and after carefully investigating its claims, he announced himself a convert. The same course was pursued by a goodly por- tion of his classmates. In 1846 he joined the Homeopathic Institute ' of America, and later also the county and state societies ; being President of city and county societies for one year each. For many years he was one of the board of censors of the Homeopathic Medi- cal College, in which he was twice offered and declined a professor- ship, and in 1876 received from its faculty and trustees the honorary degree of M. D. This honor was conferred on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of his graduation, when a dinner was given him at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. -He lived to see the seventieth anniver- sary of the same event, and then received another complimentary dinner at the Savoy Hotel from the New York Medical Club, at which several highly congratulatory speeches and a poem by Dr. William Tod Helmuth were delivered on his nearly unparalleled record as an active practitioner. Although living to th^ advanced age of ninety-five, he continued in active practice until within a few Fifth Generation. 393 days of his death. Throughout life he was an earnest advocate of temperance, laaving as a young man founded the Young Men's Total Abstinence Society, which in 1836 published a weekly paper advo- cating the cause. To his principle in this regard he attributed his longevity, and indeed his unusual quickness of comprehension and rapidity of judgment was an excellent evidence of faculties well used. His contributions to homeopathic periodicals were numerous and representative, and to his influence is attributed much of the popularization the system has achieved. At the annual meeting of the American Institute of Homeopathy, held in Newport, R. I., in June, 1895, he was greeted with the greatest enthusiasm and made a few appropriate and pleasing remarks. Personally, Dr. Hallock was an exemplar of the most charming, old-fashioned, courtly manners and bearing, and although justly popular with a wide circle of friends and professional associates, was pre-eminently domestic in his tastes, belonging to but one club."

(For her ancestry see the History of the Dey Family in this work.) She was born May 27, 1800. He was a partner in the publication of the Owego Gazette. He removed to Ithaca in 1816. He was one of the most prominent and respected citizens of Ithaca in its early days. He was the editor and publisher of the Ithaca Journal, 1816-33. He also owned a bookstore, printing office, book- bindery and the Ithaca paper mills. He was called upon to fill many public positions. Member of Assembly, 1830. State Senator, 1835-7.

The firm of Mack & Andrus, of which he was a member, were publishers of many books, some of their books, like Cobb's Spelling Book, having a very large sale. He was a member of the Masonic fraternity. An interesting journal kept by him, of a journey taken in 1 83 5 to New York City and Philadelphia, is in the possession of the family. He wrote a Life of Lafayette. He was foreman of the Columbian printing office in New York City and resigned to enter into partnership, June 15, 1815, with Stephen B. Leonard in the publication of the newspaper now known as the Owego Gazette. The following letter of recommendation given to him at the time has been preserved in the family : MRS. ELEANOR DEY MACK SENATOR EKENEZER MACK Fifth Generation . 395 "New York, January 7, 1815. "The bearer, Mr. Ebenezer Mack, is a young man of genius, intelligence, sobriety and integrity, a good writer (in verse and prose) and correct republican, and a capable and quick workman as a printer ; as I have found by the experience of between three and four years past. "Charles Holt, "Edit. Columbian." The Ithaca Democrat in 1888 published a History of St. John's Protestant Episcopal Church of Ithaca, N. Y., which contained the following reference to him r "April 8, 1822, a few faithful churchmen held a meeting in the Methodist 'Meeting House' and organized an Episcopal Church. Ebenezer Mack was chosen a vestryman." At the time of his death "The Flag of Our Union," said : "Our village is again called to mourning — and not only the village, but the county and the state at large. "This morning, at half-past six o'clock the stroke of death passed upon Ebenezer Mack. Mr. Mack was a man of rare endow- ments ; for him nature had done much, and the talent and qualifica- tion thus bestowed, was, through the changes of an extended and busy life, improved, for the benefit of society, by the most untiring industry and a never yielding energy. "Possessed of a strong mind and cultivated intellect, which was always actively engaged for the good of those around him, Mr. Mack laid deeply, in the regard of our whole community, the founda- tions for th^t high estimate for character and moral worth, which now, in the realization of his loss, is everywhere manifested. He was a man of the most sterling integrity, none more reliable in friendship than he, none more ready to engage in any work of public importance and utility, and push it to a successful issue. Providence prospered him greatly in his undertakings, and he had the happiness of living to see his family, his friends, and this his cherished village, with all its religious, benevolent, literary and business institutions, eminently prosperous. "Mr. Mack has filled a large place in the pohtical concerns of our county and state, having been for many years a member of the Assembly and of the Senate, postmaster in the village, and printer to 396 History of the Mack Family. the Senate. In his political as well as in his social connections, his loss will be deeply felt. "Mr. Mack was born at Kinderhook Landing, now Stuyvesant, in 1791. In early life he came with his father's family to Owego. There his father purchased the printing establishment of the late Dan Conger, and published a paper called the American Farmer, (if we recollect rightly.) Here Mr. Mack acquired his knowledge of the craft. He aided, and after his father's death, succeeded as the publisher. This establishment he sold to S. B. Leonard, Esq., from whom, we think, it received the name — the Owego Gazette. "After some improvement in his qualifications in New York, Mr. Mack cam'e to this village, then in its incipient condition, in 1815, and purchased a press, etc., which had been started here by IngersoU and Shepherd. This was the origin of the Ithaca Journal which was conducted by him, as editor, for many years. The exertion of his talents and industry resulted in giving to that paper the high character which, under him, it enjoyed at home and abroad. "About twenty-six years ago William Andrus, Esq., became associated with him in the concern, and the business was gradually but speedily extended from the small beginning of a very limited book and stationery establishment connected with the newspaper, until it has become the largest bookstore, printing office, bindery and paper making establishment in western New York. The interest of Mr. Mack in the Journal ceased many years since, as is well known. "Mr. Mack was a member of the Episcopal Society in this village. He died of consumption in the fifty-ninth year of his age. His decease occurring this morning just, as we were about to put our paper to press, (we stopped for this notice), it is riot in our power to do what would be just to the memory of the deceased, and satisfactory to our own feelings. "To our village the language of Divine Providence, in the removal, within a short time, of many of our most prominent and useful men, is very express. The loss of Frederick M. Camp, Daniel Bishop, Ben Johnson, Timothy S. Williams, Charles F. Woodruff and Ebenezer Mack, would be felt in any city of the Union. There is no exemption from the inevitable decree. "Alike the river's lowly tide Alike the humble violet's glide To that sad wave. Let us look for light beyond the tomb." HON. HORACE MACK Fifth Generation. 397 At the time of her death Rev. Dr. A. B. Beach, her pasto.r said in the Churchman : "In Ithaca, N. Y., June 26, 1882, Eleanor Mack, widow of th late Ebenezer Mack, died, aged 82 years. So hath passed from earth to the rest of the blessed, one who was truly a mother in Israel. Ripe in years, steadfast in Christian faith, full of charity toward the church and the world, having finished her course she passed away from loving children, who rise up and call her blessed."

He removed in 1799 to Owego and in 18 17 tO' Ithaca, N. Y. In 1838, Mr. Mack joined John James Speed, Jr., his former colleague in the Legislature, in the purchase of the Fall Creek mill property, from Jeremiah S. Beebe, where, under the title "Mack & Speed," they conducted a wholesale flouring business until April I, 1840, when Mr. Mack sold his interest to Chauncey Pratt and Chauncey L. Grant. The Ithaca Falls Woolen Manufacturing Co. succeeded to the property in the same or the following year. County Clerk, 1849-52. Member of Assembly, 1832. President of the Village of Ithaca, 1851.

Member of first Fire Company in Ithaca, 1823; He was member of the building committee when the present coiirt house was erected, in 1854. Goodwin's History of Ithaca says : "About the year 1822 an almost fatal encounter took place be- tween Horace Mack and a German fencing master. Mr. Mack had expressed some doubts regarding the qualifications of this gentleman, who resented it very highly, and the final result was a challenge by the German to fight a duel. The challenged of course having the choice of weapons, selected pistols. The day and hour were chosen, and the place for the affair of honor appointed on the banks of the Six Mile creek, directly opposite the reservoir of water called the 'Hemp Hole,' which was about ten feet deep. At the appointed time and place for the deadly combat to come off hundreds of people, of all sexes and ages, were found awaiting on the banks, where they soon expected to see the green turf drink the blood of the vanquished. The good sense of Mr. Mack and the seconds proved most valuable. The arrangements and order were perfect. The combatants approached each other, as is usual, to shake hands, when Mr. Mack, taking a rather strong hold of the man of the sword, and with a peculiar look, and a more peculiar trip and jerk, sent the offended German headlong into the ' Hemp Hole' where he was received without a dissenting voice. The roars of laughter which followed the maneuver were loud and hearty and we doubt not are still heard by the man, who failing in subduing his rival foe, took a hasty and precipitate retreat from the county." At the time of his death "The American Citizen" said : "Hon. Horace Mack, one of our oldest and most respected citizens, died in this village on Monday afternoon last. Mr. Mack was a merchant among us many years ago, in which capacity he formed an extensive business acquaintance, and won the esteem and respect of all. He was elected to the Assembly of this state from this district some years since, the duties of which station he per- formed with ability. In 1849 ^^ '^a-S elected clerk of this county in which office he acquired the renewed confidence of the entire com- munity. As a private citizen and a neighbor Mr. Mack has ever Fifth Generation. 399 been beloved, and he leaves behind him a population who are in sorrow at his loss." The following is from the "Ithaca Journal and Advertiser" of Sept. 12th, 1855 : "Mr. Horace Mack, an old resident of our village, died on Monday afternoon last, of prevailing disease, dysentery. Mr. Mack was for many years a merchant here, and in that position he won the respect of the entire community. He was elected County Clerk in 1849, and served out his term with honor to himself, and in all the public stations which he has filled, he has ever been esteemed and beloved." The following notice of Horace Mack appeared in the same paper (Ithaca Journal and Advertiser) of date Sept. 19th, 1855 : "As our paper of last week was going to press we were suddenly called upon to briefly record the decease of Horace Mack, Esq., one of our oldest and most esteemed citizens. We say oldest,' not in years, but as a citizen of Ithaca, having been identified with its business and interests for the space of nearly forty years. "He was brother of the Hon. Ebenezer Mack, who established the Journal we now continue, and whose decease a few years since we recorded. "Mr, Mack was born at Cooperstown, Otsego County, January 20th, 1799, and in infancy removed with his father's family to Owego, Tioga County, where he resided until the year 1817, when he made Ithaca his residence and where, with slight exceptions, he resided till his decease. "Mr. Mack's history is nearly that of the mercantile history of our village. On his coming to Ithaca he entered the mercantile house of Mr. Levi Leonard, then one of the largest operators in our infant place, where he remained till 1820, when Jeremiah S. Beebe, Esq., from New York, made this his home, and Mr. Mack entered his establishment as salesman and acted as such until the year 1825, then commenced business on his own account under the firm of H. Mack & Co., since which time, excepting 1834-5 — when on account of ill health he made his residence in Spencer, Tioga County, and gave his attention to farming and milling— ;-his history was that of 400 History of the Mack Family. the mercantile history of our place until 1848, when he retired from active mercantile life. "Politically, Mr. Mack was a Democrat of the old school, and in that way largely enjoyed the confidence of the public. He repre- sented this county in the Legislature in 1832, during the stormy times of the United States bank question, and aided in sustaining our state institutions against that gigantic monied power. He was a member of the board of directors of the Tompkins County Bank, from its organization in 1836, till his decease. He was Clerk of the County from 1850 to 1853. "The deep sympathy manifested by the public in view of his demise, is the fruits of a life not alone devoted to his individual interest. He possessed a large and liberal heart, and his freedom from selfishness endeared him to all who were favored by his acquaint- ance. In him the young man, the mechanic, the laboring man, always found a sympathizing friend, the public a faithful servant, and society one of its most desired ornaments. Of him as a hus- band, father and neighbor, we need not speak, for to all who thus knew him his loss is irreparable." In the same issue also appeared the following : "At a regular meeting of Ithaca Lodge No. 71, held at their, room, on Friday, Sept. 14, 1855, the following resolutions reported by Bros. Selkreg, Buckbee and Wells, were unanimously adopted : "Whereas, The Almighty Ruler of the Universe has seen fit in his Providence to remove from active Ufe, Horace Mack, a member of this Lodge, who as a merchant commanded the respect and esteem of his fellow tradesmen, whose character as a public officer was above suspicion, and who as a man has left a void which will long remain unfilled, therefore "Resolved, That while the shadow of the grave hides all his faults if any ever existed, and while his virtues grow brighter from the knowledge that we shall see him no more on this earth forever, we mourn the departure of Bro. Mack, one of our most enterprising citizens, and condole with the family of the deceased and his stricken relatives, who knew him more intimately than the world, and loved him more fully and entirely. "Resolved, That,- as a sense of our loss as an order, and our Fifth Ghneration. 401 sympathy with the bereaved friends, that a copy of these resolutions be presented them, entered on our minutes and published.

Treasurer of the Tioga County Agri- cultural Society, 1842—6. At the time of his death the "Owego Gazette" said : "Again we are called upon to record the death of one of Owego's oldest and most respected citizens. John Carmichael died at his residence on Church Street at six o'clock yesterday morning in the eighty-third year of his age, after an illness of several months. "Mr. Carmichael was born at Johnstown, Montgomery (now Fulton) County, August 12, 1795. At the age of sixteen years he went to Albany and commenced an apprenticeship to learn the trade of a jeweller and watchmaker. He came to Owego on the 3 1 st day of October, 18 19, and hired a shop in Caldwell Row, a wooden block of stores which occupied the ground on which the western 402 History of the Mack Family. portion of the Ahwaga House now stands, and commenced business as a jeweller.

(Ebenezer.) 14503. He was born May 16, 1799. He married Maria Cone. She was born Dec. 28, 1801. In his youth he was wild, but he became an excellent man. He entered Williams College when quite young, married before he graduated, studied medicine, first practiced in Chester, Mass., then South Williamstown. While there he had a call from Williamstown Center to take pins from the throat of a child, other physicians having failed. He succeeded so well that they invited him to come and settle there, and while there had the appointment of two profes- sorships, Geology and Chemistry. After some years he was appointed to make a geological survey of Ohio, and he was so successful that New York invited him to make a survey of that state. He removed to Albany, and while there, wrote several books on Sixth Generation. 413 Geology, made the beginning of the best cabinet of minerals in that state. He surveyed North Carolina, found gold, purchased a large tract of land, he and his family spending part .of the time in North Carolina and part in Albany. When the war broke out he was not permitted to leave, but was obliged to make powder for the rebels. Jeff. Davis sent for him to go to Richmond, to show them how to make it, but Gov. Vance would not let him leave the state. He graduated at Williams College, A. B., 1818, and Berkshire Medical School, 1830. Lecturer on Chemistry, 1828-34; Professor of Natural History, 1833-59 i Professor of Mineralogy and Geology, 1859-63, at Williams College. Professor of Natural History and Obstetrics in Albany Medical College. State Geologist of New York, 1836-51. The National Cyclopedia of Biography says of him ; "Ebenezer Emmons, geologist, was born at Middlefield, Hamp- shire County, Mass., May 16, 1799, son of Ebenezer and Mary (Mack) Emmons, nephew of the celebrated divine, Nathaniel Emmons, D. D., and descendant of an early settler of Connecticut. His father was a farmer, and between home duties and attending school he found a little time, when a boy, to spend in collecting insects and minerals, a taste he developed early. He was sent to Plainfield, Mass., to study under Rev. Moses Hallock, pastor of the Congregational Church there, who was famed as an educator, and had at various times, as members of his family and pupils, William Cullen Bryant, John Brown of Ossowotamie and James Henry Coffin, the meteorologist. From Plainfield he went to Williams College where he had as instructors in science Amos Eaton and Chester Dewey, and was graduated in 1818. He then entered the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute at Troy, N. Y., and was graduated in 1826. In the same year he published a 'Manual of Mineralogy and Geology' for use as a text-book in the Institute. He now studied medicine at the Berkshire Medical School, and settled as a practitioner in Chester, Mass.; but in 1828 removed to Williamstown, Mass., and in the same year was appointed lecturer on Chemistry in the college. In 1833 his department was broadened, a chair of Natural History^ being founded, but he was retained at its head and remained pro- fessor of Mineralogy and Geology after the department was divided 414 History of the Mack Family. in 1859, serving until his death. From 1830 until 1839 he held the additional position of junior professor in the Rensselaer Institute. Dr. Emmons carried on, at the same time, an extensive practice and rose to the head of his profession in Berkshire County. In 1836 he became connected with the geological survey of New York State, having been appointed by Gov. Marcy. He chose the second dis- trict, which included the Adirondack mountains, partly because that region abounded in minerals ; partly because it gave him an oppor- tunity to verify certain conclusions propounded by Professor Eaton in his lectures at Williams College. These related to a system of stratified rocks, constituting a subordinate range of the Appalachian system, and including the Berkshire, Mass., and Vermont limestones. Professor Emmons, in his geological report published in 1842, claimed that this system of rocks, which he named the Taconic, after the range to which belong Mt. Washington and Greylock, in Massa- chusetts, underlaid and was older than the Siluvian system. This opened a controversy with other geologists that continued up to the time of his death, and he was denounced and ridiculed unmercifully ; but his conclusions were strengthened by later discoveries and are now accepted, in part at least, by nearly all American geologists. In the latter part of 1842, by appointment of Gov. Seward, Prof. Emmons became custodian of the collections made by the survey, which had been arranged by Prof. Vanuxen and Prof. Hall at Albany, and aided the latter in completing the work in agriculture and paleontol- ogy. In 1843 he gave up paleontology to devote himself, by appoint- ment, to an investigation of the agricultural resources of New York State, and published five reports (1846-54) treating of the geology, climate, soils, agricultural products, insects injurious to vegetation, and allied subjects. He resigned his custodianship in 1848, and about the year 185 1 was appointed State Geologist of North Caro- lina, and, besides 'determining the probable age of the red sandstone belt that stretches from the Connecticut valley to North Carolina,' made important discoveries of fossils in the coal measures of the Deep and Dan rivers. Three volumes of reports were published (1856-60), one of these relating to the geology of the midland counties ; the other two to the agriculture of the eastern counties and to the science of agriculture in general. His published writings not already mentioned are : 'Toology of Massachusetts' (1840), Sixth Generation. 415 dealing with the quadrupeds ; 'American Geology' (1855); 'Manual of Geology* (1859). His name is borne by one. of the Adirondack peaks and by the highest summit of East mountain in the Berkshire hills. He remained in North Carolina after the Civil War broke out, and died in Brunswick County in that state." He died Oct. i, 1863. His widow resided, in 1878, with her son, Ebenezer, in Albany, N. Y.

He married, April 8, 1841, Arvilla Myers. 14616. He was one of the "Forty Niners'' who went to California and accumulated a moderate fortune after a five years' stay. He returned home and studied medicine and graduated at the Cleveland Medical College. Homeopathic physician. Captain in the New York State militia. At the time of his death a Norwalk, Ohio, newspaper said of him : "The many friends of Dr. L. H. Fenner will receive the intelli- gence of his death with deep regret. He died in Cleveland last Wednesday night. He had been in poor health about two months, and a short time previous to his death he took up his abode at the Cleveland Water-Cure, hoping to be benefited by Hydropathic treat- ment. But all efforts were unavailing, and he has been cut down in the full vigor of manhood. "Dr. Fenner came to Norwalk a little more than a year ago and became associated with Dr. Tifft in the practice of medicine. His correct and gentlemanly deportment, together with the strict atten- tion which he paid to the practice of his profession, caused him to be highly esteemed by our citizens generally. In his death, we feel that our town has lost one of its best inhabitants." When he and his companions started from New York City they purchased the ship Comorro in which they made the journey around Cape Horn to San Francisco. He engaged in business there and bought the interests of his partners in the ship. He loaded the ship 424 History of the Mack Family. with hides and started it for New York City, under Capt. Nathaniel Gorden. The Captain threw the hides overboard and sailed for the coast of Africa and engaged in the slave trade. Mrs. Fenner corre- sponded with the American Consul at Rio Janeiro, Brazil, and the Captain was arrested, tried, convicted and executed. She was chiefly instrumental in securing his conviction. The following is a copy of a document in connection with the affair which proves the value of her testimony at the trial : "U. S. Marshal's Office, "Southern District of New York. "New York, July 3rd, 1866. "I certify that previous to the Execution of Nathaniel Gordon, the African Slave Trader, in this City, in February, 1862, I delivered to President Lincoln certain papers furnished me by Mrs. Fenner, disclosing the fact, that Gordon had stolen the Brig 'Camargo,' be- longing to her husband, and proceeded with her to the coast of Africa, and after taking on board a cargo of negroes, thence pro- ceeded to the coast of Brazil. After discharging the negroes and selling them, he burned the vessel, and made his escape in women's clothes. These papers were delivered to the President by me, about a week previous to Gordon's Execution, in order to prevent a com- mutation of his sentence. "RoBT. Murray, "Seal. U. S. Marshal." The New York Tribune of Dec. 17, 1868, said: "A writer in The Atlantic Monthly, referring to the execution of Gordon, the slave trader, says : 'Whatever Gordon's life may have been worth to him or to his friends, I think this country put it to a very good use when she hanged hiiil. A storm of protests was made against his death. Twenty-five thousand people petitioned Abraham Lincoln to spare that man's life, and Abraham Lincoln refused. Gordon was hanged. All through the Kttle ports and big ports of the United States it was known that a slave trader had been hanged. And when that was known, the American slave trade ended. All up and down little African rivers that you never heard the names of it was known that an American slave trader had been hanged, and cowardly pirates trembled, and brave seamen cheered Sixth Generation. 425 when they heard it. Mothers of children thanked such gods as they knew how to thank, and slaves shut up in barracoons, waiting for their voyage, got signal that something had happened which was to give them freedom. That something was that Gordon was hanged. So far that little candle threw its beams.' " Dr. Fenner died April 28, 1858, at Cleveland, Ohio. Residence Ludlowville, N. Y., and Norwalk, Ohio.

He married (3d), Sept. g, 1879, Arvilla (Myers) Fenner. 14616. The History of Four Counties, so-called, says of him : "Prominent among the members of the Tompkins County bar, •in days past, and the pioneer of that respectable body, in fact, is Samuel Love, who for upwards of half a century practiced law in Ithaca. Samuel Love was born in Kingsbury, Washington County, N. Y., July 28, 1797, and is consequently now (1878) in the eighty- second year of his age. His father, John Love, was born in Rhode Island, in June, 1764, and his mother, Annar Burnett Love, was also a native of that state. In January, 1813, the family removed from Washington County to the town of Groton (then Locke) where Samuel received the rudiments of his education at the public schools. His father died in 1823, and his mother in 1842, and the only sur- viving members of his family direct are one brother, Isaac Love, of Ithaca, and a sister, Esther, now the wife of Johri D. Fuller of Moravia, N. Y. Mr. Love commenced the study of law with Lewis Tooker, and completed his legal studies in the office of Alpha H. Shaw. He was admitted to the bar of Tompkins County in 1824, and two years later was made a practitioner in the Supreme Court of the State. He entered upon the duties of his profession with a commendable determination to succeed, and after a long and suc- cessful practice has nominally retired on a well-earned competency. In 1828, Mr. Love was elected Clerk of Tompkins County, and such was the satisfaction he gave in that responsible office that he was re-elected in 1831, serving in all six years. In 1835 he was appointed 426 History of the Mack Family. District Attorney, which position he retained six years, performing its duties impartially and well. The main characteristics in the career of Samuel Love has been a desire to discharge all public and private duties in a conscientious and upright manner, to maintain a reputation for individual rectitude and integrity, and, in short, to make a personal application of the Golden Rule, believing that the basic fabric of moral and civil law is founded upon that grand old principle."

Y., where he has since resided. After reading law for a time in his uncle's office, he entered Hamilton College with the class of 1858, where, on account of his- 43° History of the Mack Family. father's death, he remained but one year. He conducted a manu- facturing business from 1856 to i860, and was thereafter employed in various local enterprises until 1882. Since the latter date he has served as Assistant in the Land Department of Cornell University. "Aside from occasional contributions to the local press, his published literary efforts have been few. He wrote a Historical Sketch of Ithaca for the Centennial year, 1876, which, in modified form, was published by Everts & Ensign, Philadelphia, in their 'History of Tioga, Chemung, Tompkins and Schuyler Counties,' 1877 ; Histories of the towns of 'Chicopee,' 'Amherst' and 'Hadley' and a chapter on 'The Regicides,' for the work entitled 'History of the Connecticut Valley,' L. H. Everts, Philadelphia, 1878 ; and the 'History of Columbiana County, Ohio', W. E. Ensign, Philadelphia, 1879. "Mr. Mack was a Trustee of the Village, 1862, 3, 4, and 5 ; and a member of the School Board, from March, 1875, to July, 1883." The Owego Gazette of May 30, 1878, contained the following interesting letter from him : "Ithaca, May 25th, 1878. "Messrs. Beebe & Kingman : "The dates of the file of the old American Farmer in my pos- session are from August 29th, 18 10, to July 2d, 181 1, — vol. 8, Nos. 8 to 47 inclusive — whole Nos. 367 to 411. All have the cut of an eagle in the heading, such as described by you. The legend borne in the beak of the bird I have deciphered to be 'Pleuribus Unum.' E seems to have gone astray. As mention was made in your article ■of 23d of my father's apprenticeship to the printing business, and its abrupt termination at his fathe;r's death in 1814, I would merely add that he (Horace) was again apprenticed, but to the mercantile, not printing, business, to Horatio Ross, for five years from Jan. 20, 18 15. This service was performed for a yearly salary, increasing from eighty •dollars for the first year to two hundred for the fifth. In addition Mr. Ross agreed, in the language of the 'Indenture' (now before me,) 'to find and allow the said Horace Mack, meat, drink, washing and lodging during the said term fit and convenient for the said appren- tice.' On the other hand, as to the apprentice, it reads, 'at cards, dice, or any unlawful games, he shall not play. Taverns or ale liouses he shall not frequent. Matrimony he shall not contract. HORACE MACK Sixth Generation. 431 From the service of his master he shall not depart, etc' This document is witnessed by Stephen Mack and Win. Piatt. By the commission to Stephen Mack, Esq., which I have, dated Nov. i ith, 1812, and signed by Daniel D. Tompkins, the said Mack was made first Judge of the Court of Common Pleas in and for the county of Broome. Emanuel Coryell was appointed first Judge of Tioga County March 31, 18 10, and was succeeded by Judge Gamahel H. Barstow, June 22, 1818. It appears, therefore, that Owego was then in the county of Broome. "H. Mack." Residence, 1901, Ithaca, N. Y. Children : 15701. George William. Born Feb. 13, i860.

Landmarks of Tompkins County says of him : "The first of the Hibbards to come to this county was Henry Hibbard, a native of Winham, Conn., who came here in 1812, and in partnership with JuUus Ackley established the first hat manufactory in Ithaca, later adding a store in the same line. In i8i6 he married Rhoda Ackley, who died without issue, and he married second, Nancv Tillotson, in 1819, by whom he had two children : Mary, who married Thomas St. John ; and Henry Fitch Hibbard. Timothy, the father of Henry, first mentioned, came to this county about rSrS, and settled on a farm in the northeastern portion of this town, which settlement has ever since born the name of Hibbard's Corners. He died in 1837. Henry Hibbard was one of the most prominent busi- ness men in the early history of this city (Ithaca), taking an import- ant part in all enterprises for the public good. He was heavily interested in real estate, and in 1828, in connection with Ackley & Beebe built the Clinton House which still stands as a landmark of the county. He died in 1863. Henry F. Hibbard was for a number of years the teller in the old Ithaca Bank, and later conducted a general store. In 1853, in company with Thomas P. St. John, he estabhshed a factory for the manufacture of sewing silks, which until 1 86 1 was one of the leading industries of this section, at that year, however, he returned to the mercantile business. He was at one time greatly interested in speculation, but during his later years withdrew from all active business with the exception of his connection with the Savings Bank of which he was a founder. He was a Demo- crat and served as Supervisor at one time." At the time of his death the Ithaca Journal said of him : "In his death Ithaca loses one of its foremost leaders in all thought and action regarding public projects and its best advocate in all things looking to its weal. A man of sympathy, kindly impulses and untiring energy — his loss will prove a greater one than many of its citizens endowed with greater wealth. The organizer of Sixth Generation. 433 a yet young manufacturing business, daily increasing in importance, and in its demands upon his moments and energies, he never refused public demand upon either his time or purse.

To those who know him best his memory will remain dearest." He died Aug. 4, 1880, from injuries received on night of reception of the victorious Cornell crew. Residence Ithaca, N. Y.

Director in Weekly Underwriter Co. Member of Reform Club, American Geographical Society, Metropolitan Museum of Art and American Museum of Natural History. At the time of his death the Weekly Underwriter said editorially : "The life-record of our friend and associate, who died this week, appears on another page. It is full of the evidences of high principle, noble endeavor and the achievement of purpose. Mr. Mack's methods were quiet, but what he aimed to do he followed with per- sistence, and generally accomplished. We believe that no man in our vocation was more liked and respected by those whom he had to meet in business. The letters which have spontaneously come to us from prominent underwriters, deploring Mr. Mack's untimely death, show that he was indeed to them, as he must have been to all, persona grata. Further, no man could ever justly say that he had Sixth Generation. 459 done him wrong ; very many could say, as did the citizens of the town whose good order and clean politics he defended, as an editor, with his life at stake, that his career was a benefaction. To those who were nearer his service was a long blessing. Measured by these standards Mr. Mack's life was a success and an example. It can be summed up — the life of an earnest, manly, Christian gentleman." The same paper in another column said : "John Warren Mack died at his home, 471 Lenox avenue, in this city, early on Sunday morning, after an illness from typhoid fever of nearly seven weeks. His last appearance in this office was on Wednesday, October 10, when he attended to his usual duties, although he was already suffering from the first effects of his malady. It was a serious case from the beginning, and its progress was watched with much anxiety by his family and friends, and when the fever had run its course it left him too weak to rally. All that the best medical skill and the attentions of a devoted wife and children could do were of no avkil. "Mr. Mack came from sturdy old New England stock, and was born at Bath, Steuben County, N. Y., March 11, 1848. His boyhood education was principally obtained at the Haverling Union School, at Bath, where he was prepared for college. He entered Cornell University in his twentieth year and was graduated with the class of 1872, taking the degree of Bachelor of Science. Although his natural bent was for journalism, and his first venture in that direction was a brief experience at the case, the early years of his life after leaving the university were devoted to education. He had a taste for the acquirement of languages and became a proficient French, German and Italian scholar. These languages and the higher mathematics he taught at the Ithaca Academy and subsequently at the Delaware Literary Institute. He was also for some time princi- pal of the North Cohocton public school. "The entry of Mr. Mack into the vocation of his choice was as editor of the Bayonne, N. J., Herald. This was about the year 1881. In 1883 he removed to Hornellsville, N. Y., to accept the post of business manager of the Herald, and, with a short incursion into life insurance as the local agent of the New York Life insurance com- pany, he continued with that paper until 1889, being the last two 460 History of tjie Mack Family. years its editor. While he was occupying that position it became his duty to attack the political rascalities then rife at Hornellsville, and his fearless course so exasperated the gang in power that his editorial room was entered one evening when he was at work and he was brutally beaten and injured severely. The indignation of the community over the assault and its approval of his conduct as a conscientious journalist more than compensated him for his suffering in its behalf. He never failed to put into practice his conception of what was right, no matter what might be the possible consequences that threatened. "His public career and his reputation as a careful and intelli- gent statistician led to his call to the service of the Government in the taking of the census of 1890. He was appointed to the division of insurance statistics, acting as chief under the direction of Special Agent Charles A. Jenney. In 1894, when the census work was com- pleted, Mr. Mack accepted an offer to join the staff of The Weekly Underwriter, and became its outside business representative. In that capacity he was known to and highly respected by underwriters throughout the United States. He was a director and the secretary of the corporation by which the paper is published. "Mr. Mack was an unobtrusive professor of religion, and was from early manhood a member of the Presbyterian communion. On becoming a resident of the city of New York, in 1894, he connected himself with the Harlem Presbyterian Church, and at the time of his death was its senior elder. His strong business sense was of great value in the management of its secular affairs. In this beautiful church edifice the funeral services were held on last Tuesday even- ing. They were opened by the present pastor, and the funeral sermon was preached by his old pastor and friend, who was in charge when he became a member, and who paid a just and eloquent tribute to Mr. Mack's qualities as a man and a Christian." From the numerous tributes to Mr. Mack by his brethren of the insurance press, the following have been selected as expressive of their sense of the loss which has fallen on the profession and the community by his death : From the Insurance Age : "As we go to press we learn of the death, after a lingering ill- Sixth Generation. 461. ness, of John W. Mack, of The Weekly Underwriter.. In this brief space we can only add our small tribute to the testimonials which all who knew him are ready to pay to the splendid character and sub- stantial worth of this Nature's nobleman who has just passed on. As we lay him to rest, let it not be only with brimming eye and breaking heart, but also with joy at the remembrance of an upright and spot- less life, over which the King of Terrors can never wholly triumph." From The Chronicle : "He was a gentleman, was John W. Mack, a Christian gentle- man, and a newspaper man of thorough training, rare attainments and highest class. He was one of those men whose presence com- manded respect and consideration, because those whom he met im social or business intercourse recognized instinctively a nature of fine instincts and high ideals coupled with good taste and common; sense. His death leaves a distinct gap in this profession, which needs just such men as he. Aside from our sense of personal loss at the death of a friend, we join with the fraternity in mourning the loss of a sterling character." From The Record : "He was a man of high character and fine attainments, a grad- uate of Cornell University ; and although of a retiring disposition he made and kept a host of warm friends among insurance men and his journalistic associates." From the Philadelphia Intelligencer : "John W. Mack was a true gentleman. He was also a trained and capable newspaper man who understood his work well and did it quietly but effectively. The one thing, however, that always impressed you when you met Mr. Mack for the first time, and which grew on you the more times you met him, was that he was a gentle- man. Clean cut, positive as to his convictions, but kindly and courteous in his expression of his views and in his relations to those about him." From Thrift : "The news of the death of Mr. John W. Mack, the secretary of the Underwriter Printing and Publishing Company, on the 25th 462 History of the Mack Family. inst., was received with general regret by his co-workers in insurance journalism, and has called forth many tributes to Mr. Mack's memory from prominent life and fire underwriters." From the Insurance Advocate : "A scholarly and high minded gentleman, Mr. Mack was a credit to insurance journalism and gained the high respect of all with whom he had dealings." From The Surveyor : "While the deceased was, perhaps, not as widely known as some others, because of his retiring disposition, he was in his per- sonal character one of the shining lights of the business of insurance journalism. His death came as a shock to many who esteemed him greatly for his gentle sincerity and the abilities that his modesty could not conceal." From Views : "The death of Mr. John Warren Mack, secretary of the Under- writer Printing and Publishing Company, New York, who succumbed to typhoid fever the morning of the 25th ult., is deeply deplored in insurance circles. The practice of uniform courtesy and nicety to his colleagues, his unobtrusive nature and gentle manner, won their esteem and friendship. The Weekly Underwriter has, indeed, lost a good staff, and insurance journalism a conscientious and talented co- laborer." From the Insurance Monitor : "Insurance journalism lost an honored representative in Mr. J. W. Mack, who died on November 25 at his home in New York. Mr. Mack became connected with The Weekly Underwriter in 1894. Prior to that connection, he had been engaged in journalism for many years. He was an expert statistician, and was employed by the Government in the taking of the census of 1890, under Mr. Charles A. Jenny. Mr. Mack had the respect and esteem of all with whom he came in contact, and his untimely death is mourned by many friends." Sixth Generation. 463 ' From the Insurance Herald : "Mr. Mack had been with The Weekly Underwriter since 1894 and has contributed to some of the most important features of its work. He was a graduate of Cornell University and had been successively printer, teacher and principal of schools, life insurance agent, editor and business manager of journals in Bayonne, N. J., and Hornellsville, N. Y., and special insurance census supervisor of the Government from 1890 to 1894, previous to his connection with The Weekly Underwriter. Mr. Mack was in the prime of life, aged fifty-two, and will be greatly missed and deeply mourned." From The Vigilant : "Mr. Mack was able and conscientious ; everything he undertook to do he did well. He was always a gentleman, a good citizen and a loyal endeavorer for righteousness.'' From The Standard : "Few men will be more genuinely missed from the ranks of insurance journalism than John Warren Mack, of The Weekly Underwriter, New York, who died on Sunday of typhoid fever. A man of wide information, a skilled linguist, a gentleman always, and an enthusiast in his profession, of which he was a modest and yet conspicuous ornament, his loss in the midst of a successful and honorable career will be deeply deplored in journalistic and insurance circles, in which he was highly and deservedly esteemed. * * Mr. Mack's journalistic work was of the highest order — accurate, polished, and always honest. His loss will be felt especially by his colleagues on The Weekly Underwriter, who were greatly attached to him for his solid and endearing qualities. The funeral services were held in the Madison Avenue Presbyterian Church, New York, on Tuesday evening, and were attended by a large number of insurance journalists and insurance men. At a meeting of insurance journalists in the ofi&ce of C. J. Smith, Mutual Life Building, on Tuesday, appropriate resolutions were adopted." i^goo — 260. Orlando Mack.

Principal of High School and Superin- tendent of Schools, Bedford, Iowa, 1881-4. Lawyer. Director in the Bank of Niagara, Bank of Suspension Bridge, Power City Bank and Niagara County Savings Bank of Niagara Falls, N. Y. Men of New York (1898) says of him : "Eugene Cary, prominent in the legal and political circles of Niagara Falls, was bom in Dunkirk, N. Y., somewhat less than forty years ago. After attending the public schools of his native place, he obtained higher instruction at Cornell University, graduating thence in 1878 with the degree of B. S. He then devoted a year to business in his father's hardware store at Dunkirk, and the winter of 1879-80 he passed as principal of a school at Sinclairville, Chautauqua County, N. Y. "By this time Mr. Gary had decided to make the practice of law his life-work. Entering the office of Judge Thomas P. Grosvenor, therefore, at Dunkirk, he applied himself with characteristic zeal to the task of mastering legal science. He continued his reading until August, 1 88 1, when the position of Superintendent of Schools at 478 History of the Mack Family. Bedford, Iowa, was offered to him. He accepted this opportunity, and managed the public schools of Bedford with marked efficiency for the next three years. He found a little time for his law studies during these years in the West, and had no difficulty in passing the bar examinations at Buffalo in June, 1884. "From November, 1884, until October of the next year, Mr. Gary practiced law at Forestville, near Dunkirk, in partnership with Daniel Sherman. Niagara Falls was already beginning to give promise of its later industrial supremacy, and Mr. Gary resolved to settle there. Associating himself, accordingly, with Henry G. Tucker, he practiced at the Falls in the firm of Tucker & Gary from October, 1885, until May, 1887. For the next six years he carried on a large practice without partnership assistance. Since May i, 1893, he has been associated with William G. Wallace in the well-known firm of Gary & Wallace. He has become a familiar figure in the Gourts of Niagara Gounty, and is widely known as an able and trustworthy attorney. "Outside of his professional work Mr. Gary has been especially interested in politics. He was a member of the executive committee of the Chautauqua Gounty Republican Committee in 1884. In the fall of that year he edited the political columns of a Dunkirk news- paper. Since going to Niagara Falls he has been on the Republican City Committee several times, and in the important campaign of i8g6 he was chairman of that committee. He was one of the Alternate Delegates to the Republican National Convention at St. Louis in the same year. He has been a delegate to every Republican judiciary convention in his district for the last ten years, and was chairman of the convention in 1895. Notwithstanding his activity and import- ance in the counsels of the Republican party, he has never cared to hold public office. He has, however, been a member of the Niagara Falls Board of Education since March, 1896. "Mr. Gary has been somewhat active in the business life of Niagara Falls as well as in law and politics. He holds directorates in Power City Bank, and in the Bank of Niagara ; and acts as attorney for these institutions, and for the Bank of Suspension Bridge. He is a Trustee of the Niagara County Savings Bank, and President of the Niagara Falls Memorial Hospital." Residence, 1901, Niagara Falls, N. Y. Seventh Generation. 479 Children ; 16121. Anna.

From Spencer (Iowa) News, Feb. 8, 1894: "A biographical sketch of Mrs. E. B. Higley read at the Farmers' Institute last week. "It seems fitting that we turn aside, for a few moments, from the regular business of the day and give our attention for the intervals to a review of the life and works of one whom every person here must remember with deepest respect as well as with gratitude for the work done in this institution, especially in advancing the work of the special department now under discussion. "Miss Julia M. Clark was a native of Windham, Ohio. Born on a midsummer day when the world was at its loveliest, her infant eyes opened on a world of flowers and all her life she has held no task sweeter than the cultivation and study of these beautiful gifts from an all-wise and good Creator. She was educated at the academy of her native town and took the preparatory course of Oberlin College, but owing to financial reverses in her father's family she was compelled to give up her cherished dream of college life and bravely took up the task of teaching to assist in educating the young brothers and sisters, of which there were six, she being the eldest. "Always a close and thorough student, her studies did not end with her school days but have continued through all her useful and busy life. In later years she took up the Chautauqua work and com- pleted the four years' course of reading in 1882, just before removing to Iowa, but ever since the organization of a C. L. S. C. circle in Spencer she has been an active and useful member, and held a place of honor in the hearts of all her associates. "In 1853 she was married to Edward B. Higley, and for forty years she has shared all his joys and sorrows. She was always ready to give her influence in the cause of temperance. In the dark days of our republic when war and bloodshed were over the land, her Seventh Generation. 489 time, work and influence were given to aid the national cause, and being the possessor of a remarkably rich contralto voice she was the leading member of a musical club which gave from time to time excellent concerts for the purpose of raising funds to supply the neces- sary help to soldiers in field and hospital. She was a devoted Chris- tian and a member of the Congregational church at Windham, from which she took letters to the same church in this place. She first came to Spencer in 1882 but went to Mason City the following year and remained until 1886, since which time her home has been in Spencer. "Active in charities both in public and private, her hand was ready and quick to aid any one in distress. Practical in all things if she had work to do she gave it where the remuneration would supply the greatest need. "She gave her aid to every good cause for the advancement of her fellow beings intellectually, financially or socially, and was quick to see and advocate any measure to raise the standard of life in those around her. Many will remember the effort put forth some years ago for purchasing and beautifying a portion of land for a city park. Her efforts were not crowned with success as they deserved, but no doubt did some good as no good work is ever entirely lost. "With eyes to see and an intellect to appreciate the beautiful in nature and art her most enthusiastic work was given in the line of horticulture and floriculture. She spared no pains to make success- ful any movement for their advancement. She was a member of the Portage county horticultural society in Ohio, and did efficient service in that body for years before coming to Iowa. She has been a mem- ber of the State horticultural society of Iowa since 1884, and her name has been held in honor as one of the capable workers. Being a learned and skillful botanist she was at one time employed to make a sectional report of the flora of northwestern Iowa by the state organization. You all know what her work in this society has been. From its earliest organization she has been its most faithful advocate. With characteristic independence she attended the first session with no other woman to support her, and from that time until she was called away she has been on the most important committees in the society. "With all her services in public life she was a devoted wife, a 49° History of the Mack Family. true home maker and a source of emulation to her many friends on account of her brilliant conversational and sweet womanly social qualities."

ADDITIONS AND CORRECTIONS. FIRST GENERATION. 18500. John Mack. 11800. He did not marry a second time. It is thought that this family dropped their original names, retaining the prefix only, thereby being better able to escape perse- cution on account of their religious belief. It is said that part of their coat-of-arms was a boar's head. The Scotch families of Mc- Dougal and McTavish have as parts of their coats-of-arms a boar's head erased. One branch of the family thinks that the original name ■was McDermon. He was the original and only early settler of that name in Conn, and the ancestor of all the early Macks of that state.
