Langworthy Mrs. Blanche Page Burch with A PRELIMINARY HISTORY by the Late Franklin Leonard Pope Hamilton, N. Y. The Republican Press, 191 7 Price fe.oo P4 PREFACE Pope, as we know, is a name derived from the Latin papa or the Greek papas, meaning father or little father. In French the word is pape, and in German papst. As a surname, it is said to have been known in Britain in the fifth century. Several variations of the name are common; for example, Poppe, in Germany, also Pop and Popp. Then there is Poape found in colonial records, and the variations Popeson, Popham and Popeham. The name Popeham is a combination of Pope and ham, the home of Pope or the Pope family, ham being a corruption of the German heim, from which we get our word home. In Domesday book, one of the four free men, holding manors, was Popham or Popeham, who had an estate in Hamp- shire called by his name, which proves that he was of conse- quence. In the time of Edward III the family was prominent in Kent. In the BritishMuseum's collection of manuscripts there is a little piece of parchment nine inches by five, with a round piece of dark green wax attached by a parchment tape, which is the oldest relic and memorial of any individual of our name. It is a deed of land made, signed, and sealed by a Ralph Pope nearly six hundred years ago. Pioneers or pilgrim ancestors were Joseph, who came from England about 1634 and settled in Salem. John, of Dochester, whose name appears in the list of freemen made in 1634, as Poape, was prominent in town affairs, and one of the pillars of the church. Thomas of Plymouth our ancestor in this country, sailed from Plymouth, Eng., on the 20 of Mar., 1629, in the "Mary and John." Who he was or whence he came we are not sure but we know we descended from an ancient family. We are also representatives of a numerous family. Our ancestor, Thomas had 8 children (4 sons and 4 daughters.) 6 Genealogy of Thomas Pope and Descendants Two of these were killed by Philip's warriors at Dartsmouth, and yet his grandchildren numbered at least 44. In tracing a single line through 17 families, we find an average of nearly 9 to the family. We can also claim to be representatives of a distinguished family. The literary light of the family is Alexander Pope, the most famous English poet of his century. "Poetry his only business, and idleness his only pleasure," as he said of himself. Many have occupied positions of trust and honor. In military service we have an honorable place in the records of our country. There are no less than 38 names of Popes, mainly from the Plymouth and Dorchester families, who served their country in the War of Independence. In the mechanical and useful arts, and their practical ap- plication, the Popes have not been wanting; in short, from nearly all pursuits of life, the farm, the shop, the store, the professions of law and of medicine and the service of the Church, they have done their part and done it well. The committee to publish this Genealogy was appointed at the Pope reunion August, 1914, at New Berlin, N. Y. Through patient enquiry and much writing a record of many families has been found, yet a longer period might bring to light some hundreds more regarding whom it is to be regretted no history has been obtained. To humor a family pride, to dissipate some ' 'traditions, ' ' to solve many puzzles and straighten many entanglements has been a labor of love, with no expecta- tion of reward other than that arising from the satisfaction of bringing into a collection form, for preserving such details of our family history as are deemed of general interest and which otherwise might in the lapse of a few years be lost. It has been the intention of the compilers to present an impartial account, to enter all names and dates with accuracy, while discrepancies between dates of some family records will no doubt be discovered yet it is proper to say that nothing has been given except on what was believed to be good author- ity and when conflicting dates were furnished, the decision was made on the best information accessible at the time. Brief memorials have been given whenever they could be obtained. Genealogy of Thomas Pope and Descendants 7 It would be impossible to prepare a work of this kind with- out some help from a great many families. The committee takes this opportunity to thank all these who have aided in any way. Our special acknowledgment is due the New England Historical and Genealogical Register for permission to reprint "Thomas Pope of Plymouth" by Franklin Leonard Pope (18). This was published in the Register for January, 1888. Many additions and corrections have been made. A large part of these came from manuscripts left by Mr. Pope. In reviewing the record now completed this thought is presented : How many of these, active in their day of usefulness are now numbered with the generations long since departed, examples among them of uprightness, virtue and integrity worthy of imitation, may we, their surviving descendants, learn wisdom therefrom, and gather the golden grains which they have strewn along the way.

GENEALOGY OF THOMAS POPE OF PLYMOUTH THOMAS POPE, is said by Savage to have been an inhabi- tant of New Plymouth in 1631, and to have been 67 years of age in 1675. Although the authorities for these dates have not been found, there is no reason to doubt their correct- ness. If born in 1608 he would have been 21 years of age in 1629, and it may be conjectured that he came to this country soon afterward. We are told in Blake's Annals of Dorchester, that In y e year of our Lord 1629, Divers Godly Persons in Devonshire, Somer- setshire, Dorsetshire & other places Proposed a remoue to New-England, among whom were two Famous Ministers, viz Mr. John Maverick (who I suppose was somewhat advanced in Age) and Mr. John Warham (I suppose a Younger Man) then a preacher in y e City of Exon or Exeter, in y e County of Devon. These good People met together at Plymouth, a Sea-port Town in y" S d County of Devon, in order to Ship themselues and Families for New England; and because they designed to liue together, after they should arriue here, they met together in the New Hospital in Plymouth and Associated into Church Fellowship and chose y° S d Mr. Mauerick and Mr. Warham to be their Ministers and Officers; the Rev. Mr. John White of Dorchester in Dorset (who was an active Instrument to promote y Settlement of New England, and I think a means of procuring y e Charter) being present & Preaching ye fore part of ye Day and in y e latter part of y e Day they performed y e work afore- said They set sail from Plymouth ye 20th of March, 1629-30,* ... and arrived at Nantasket (now Hull) y 8 30th of May 1630. These colonists settled at Mattapan in June, 1 630, and gave their settlement the name of Dorchester. The surname of Pope was very common at that day, and is still common in Devon, Dorset and Somerset. It is not improb- able that Thomas Pope and John Pope were among the passen- gers of the Mary and John. John was a freeman of Dorchester, September 3, 1634, and in his will (1646) he mentions a brother * The vessel was the Mary and John, of 400 tons, commanded by Capt. Squeb. io Genealogy of Thomas Pope and Descendants Thomas, who is supposed, with some reason, to be Thomas of Plymouth.* Another of the same surname known to have emigrated from England, was Joseph of Salem, 1634; there are also Walter of Charlestown, 1634, Thomas of Stamford, Conn., 1 64 1, and John, who is listed as an emigrant to "Virginia" in l6 35, aged 28. What relation, if any, existed between these different persons and Thomas of Plymouth, can only be con- jectured. A family of the name settled in Kent as early as the reign of Edward III. (1327-77), among the Oxfordshire de- scendants of which were Sir Thomas Pope (died January 29, 1 558-59)» guardian of Queen Elizabeth during her minority. The continual recurrence of the names Thomas and John in the Kentish families, as well as among those bearing the surname in the west of England and in this country, would appear to indicate a common descent. Of the life of Thomas Pope little is known beyond the brief entries which appear in the records of the town and colony of Plymouth, but these are sufficient to show that he was a man of positive character, and of some consideration in the community. His promptness in resenting a real or fancied injury, and his independent expressions of personal opinion, more than once caused him to be arraigned before the magistrates of New Plymouth, and no doubt ultimately led to his removal to Dart- mouth, where he passed the last ten years of his life. The records of the colony show that in the list of rates im- posed by the Court, January 2, 1632-2, and again January 2, 1 633-4, he- was taxed 9s. October 6, 1636, he was granted five acres of land "at the fishing point next Slowly field, and said Thomas be allowed to build." June 7, 1637, we find his name among the list of persons who volunteered to go under "Mr. Prence" on an expedition against the Pequots. July 28, 1637, he was married by Gov. Winslow to Ann, daughter of Gabriel Fallowell. He sold his property at the fishing point to John Bonham, August 28, 1640, perhaps on account of the death of his wife, the precise date of which event is unknown. November 2, 1640, he was granted "5 acres of meadowing in South Meadows toward Gavans Colebrook meadows". His * Rev. Charles Henry Pope, of Cambridge, Mass., has published a genealogy of the Dor- chester Pope family, with notices of other American families of the name. The results of Mr. Pope's personal researches into the history of the English Pope families are of great interest.iand are given in full in his work which is entitled "The Pope Family." It was pub- lished by the author at 79 Franklin St., Boston, Mass., in 1888. Genealogy of Thomas Pope and Descendants 1 1 name appears in a list, August, 1634, entitled, "The names of all the males that are able to beare armes from XVI years old to 60 years wth in the seuerall Toune Shipps." He was chosen constable June 4, 1645, and was on a jury August, 1645. In 1646 he is found in Yarmouth. May 29, 1646, he married at Plymouth, Sarah, daughter of John Jenney. In 1647, June 1, an action for slander was brought against him, confessed, authors and defendants were brought in equally guilty, and damages paid. He was chosen surveyor of highways July, 1648, and again June 6, 1651. In 1652, July 26, and in 1656, he is "on an Enquest." In "December, 1663, Thomas Pope and Gyles Rickard, Senirt" were arrested "for breaking the King's peace by striking each other, and were fined each three shillings and four pence;" and "said Pope, his striking of said Rickard's wife, and for other turbulent carriages, in word and deed, the Court have centenanced him to find sureties for his good behavior." But nevertheless his temper soon got the better of him again, for we find him, February 7, 1664, and also May 2, 1665, quarrelling with one John Barnes about that fruitful subject of dispute, a boundary. He is recorded as having taken the freeman's oath in 1668. In 1670, June 7, he was again overhauled by the authorities, and as the record says, "fined 10 shillings for vilifying the ministry." Although he was now over 60 years old, these troubles doubtless influenced him in the determination to seek a new home, and accordingly we find him with others pe- titioning the Court in 1673 for a grant of land at Saconnett (now Little Compton, R. I.) For some reason not ascertained, this project was unsuccessful, for it appears in the record that he is "Granted leave since he and others cannot secure Saconnett neck according to the grant, to look out some other place, undisposed of, for their accommodation." Acting upon this permission, he secured a large tract on the east side of the Acushnet river at Dartmouth, tradition says by direct purchase from the Indians. This location, however, must have been included within the prior purchase made by Bradford, Standish and their associates, from the sachems Wesamequen and Wamsutta, on November 29. 1652, which had been, by order of the Court in June, 1664, erected into a separate township to "be henceforth called and known by the name of Dartmouth." At a meeting of the proprietors of this purchase, held in Plymouth March 7, 1652, the township was divided into thirty-four equal shares, and 12 Genealogy of Thomas Pope and Descendants hence it seems likely that Thomas Pope may have acquired one of the shares. A list made in 1652 shows that his mother- in-law, "Mistris Jenney," was one of the Dartmouth pro- prietors, and two of her sons, Samuel and John Jenney were among the early settlers of D. in the immediate vicinity of the Popes. Another original proprietor of Dartmouth was Robert Bartlett, whose son Joseph married, about 1662, Hannah, daughter of Thomas Pope by his first wife. The date of the re- moval of Thomas Pope to Dartmouth has not been ascertained, but it must have been about 1674. The settlement at Dart- mouth was a scattered one, and for better security and defence against the Indians, who had already begun to evince a hostile disposition, a fort or garrison house was built on the east side of Acushnet river, about half a mile north of the village of Ox- ford, the remains of which were visible until a recent date, on the lands of John M. Howland. In the early part of July, 1675, his son John, a young man of 22, his daughter Susannah and her husband Ensign Jacob Mitchell, were killed by a party of Philip's Indians, "early in the morning as they were fleeing on horseback to the garrison, whither the Mitchell children had been sent the afternoon before" (Gen. Reg. xv. 266.) This occurrence took place near the "frog pond" on the south side of Spring Street, between William and Walnut, Fairhaven. The settlement at Dart- mouth being isolated, scattered and difficult of defence, was shortly abandoned, and the deserted plantations were quickly laid waste and the buildings burned by the savages. The following order of Court passed by the government at Plymouth, is of interest here : (1675, 4th of October.) This Court, takeing into theire serious considera- tion the tremendus dispensations of God towards the people of Dartmouth, in suffering the barborus heathen to spoile and destroy most of theire habi- tations, the enimie being greatly advantaged therevnto by theire scattered way of liueing, doe therefore order that in the rebuilding or resettling therof, that they soe order it as to Hue compact together, att least in each village, as they may be in a capassitie both to defend themselues from the assault of an enimie, and the better to attend the publicke worship of God, and minnes- try of the word of God, whose carelesnes to obtaine and attend vnto, wee fear, may haue bine a prouocation of God thus to chastise theire contempt of his gospell, which wee earnestly desire the people of that place may seri- ously consider off, lay to hart, and be humbled for, with a sollisitus indeauor after a reformation thereof by a vigorous puting forth to obtaine an able, Genealogy of Thomas Pope and Descendants 13 faithful dispenser of the word of God amongst them, and to incurrage him therein, the neglect whereof this Court as they must not, and, God willing, they will not permit for the future.* No attempt appears to have been made for some three years to reoccupy the ruined settlement. Where Thomas Pope and his family found an asylum during this time, has not been as- certained. The following extract from the Plymouth records perhaps serves to throw a glimmer of light upon this question: Wheras Phillip, late sachem of Paukanakett, and other sachems, his accomplises, haueing bin in confeaderation and plighted couenant with his ma"" collonie of New Plymouth, haue lately broken couenant with the English, and they and theire people haue likewise broken out in open re- bellion against our sou r lord Kinge Charles, his crowne and dignitie, ex- pressed by raising a crewell and vnlawful warr, murdering his leich peo- ple, destroying and burning theire houses and estates, expressing great hostillitie, outrage, and crewellty against his said ma 1 '** subjects, wherby many of them were personally slaine, and some bereaued of theire deare children and relations, among which said rebells and Indian named Popa- nooie is found to be one, who hath had a hand, and is found to be very actiue in the great crewelty and outrage acted vpon seuerall of the inhabi- tants of the towne of Dartmouth, in the said his ma' iBS collonie of New Ply- mouth, in particular it being manifest that hee was very active towards and about the destruction of seuerall of the children of Thomas Pope, late of Dartmouth aforsaid, and seueiall others of the said towne; in considera- tion wherof after due examination had of the premises, this Court doth hereby condemne and centance him, the said Popanooie, and his wife and children, to perpetuall sevitude, they likewise being found coepartenor with him in the said rebellion, and particularly that hee, the said Popanooie, is to be sold and sent out of the country. [July 13, 1677.] It appears also that about a year previous to this (June 1 2, 1676), several Indians who had been captured and sent in by Bradford and Church were "convented before the councell" at Plymouth, being "such of them as were accused of working vnsufferable mischieffe upon some of ours." One of these prisoners, named John-num, being accused by his fellows, acknowledged, among other misdeeds, that he was concerned in the murder of "Jacob Mitchell and his wife and John Pope, and so centance of death was pronounced against them, which accordingly emediately was ekecuted."f The following order of Court relating to the resettlement of Dartmouth explains itself. To John Cooke, to be communicated to such of the former Inhabitants of Datrmouth as are concerned herein. * Book 5th, Court Orders, p. 102. t Plymouth Col. Rec.

July the 9th. The last will and testament of Thomas Pope, being Aged and weak of body but yet in perfect understanding and memory wherein I have of my estate as followeth; I give unto my son Seth as an addition to what I have formerly given him ten shillings in money also I give unto my grandson Thomas Pope all that my twenty-five acres of up- land and two acres of meadow lying and being on the west side of Acush- enett River be it more or less, and it is my desire that his father may take the said land into his hands and make the best improvement of it that he can for the good of my said grandson until be comes of age to make use of it himself; also it is my mind that my son Seth shall in consideration of the aforesaid land pay three pounds sterling unto my grandson Jacob Mitchell when he comes to age of twenty one years. Also I give unto my daughter Deborah Pope five pound in money, and to each of my other daughters five pound a peace in moneu; also my meddow lying at the south Meddowes in Plymouth or the value of it, I give to be equally divided amongst all my sons and daughters; also I give and bequeath unto my son Isack all my seate of land where I now dwell with all the meddowes belonging thereunto and all the privilages thereunto belonging. To him his heirs and Assigns forever, but and if it should please god that he should decease without an heir before he comes to the age of twenty and one years, then my said seat of land shall belong unto the sons of my son Seth. Also I give unto my son Isaack all my housing and household goods of all sorts, also all my cattle and horse kine and swine; Also all sorts of provisions, also cart and plowes with all the takeling belonging unto them. Also I give unto my said son Isaack all my money except that which I have given to my daughters, and I order my said son Isaack to pay all my just debts and to receive all my debts that are due unto me also I order my Indian Lydia to live with my son Isaack until he is one and twenty years of age, and my Indian gerle I give to him during his life, also it is my mind and will that my son Isaack shall make no bargain without the con- sent of his overseers until he be twenty years of age, I have made choice of * Book 5, Court Orders, p. 124.

Signed and sealed in presence- of John Cook and Thomas Tabor. Isaac and Seth Pope took out letters of administration on the estate November 2, 1683; which approximately fixes the date of the death of Thomas. They gave bonds in £400. The homestead farm conveyed by the above will to Isaac Pope, contained 172 acres, and comprised the larger portion of the thickly-settled portion of the present town of Fairhaven. Its north line was a little south of the south line of the street leading east from the bridge. Before the Acushnet cemetery was laid out, which was dur- ing the reign of Queen Anne, about 171 1, an acre of the Taber farm, half a mile or more north of the bridge, on a point of land projecting into the river, had been set apart for a burial ground, and it is there that Thomas Pope was probably buried.* 1.

It is on the west side of Sandwich Street, about twenty rods south of the bridge. Genealogy of Thomas Pope and Descendants Second Generation Seth 2 Pope (Thomas 1 -), b. in Plymouth, Jan. 13, 1648; d. in Dartmouth, March 17, 1727. The records give no information concerning his early history. Tradition, in part confirmed by the records, says that about 1670 he appeared as a peddler in Sandwich, whereupon the constable, in pursuance of a regulation then in force, ordered him to depart, lest in future he might become a charge upon the town. He accordingly with- drew, taking occasion, however, to remark that he would yet come back and buy up the town. Procuring a boat at Monument, he followed the coast round to Acushnet, where he settled within the present limits of Fairhaven, and by his industry, energy and skilful business management ultimately became one of the most wealthy and influential citizens of the old colony. 1678-9, March 8, an allowance was ordered by the Court to be made him for expenses and time returning guns to the Indians after Philip's war; 1685, June 2, was chosen selectman of Dartmouth; 1686, March 4, took the oath of fidelity; June 2, again chosen selectman; June 4, commissioned lieutenant. He was chosen representative from Dartmouth to the General Court at Plymouth in 1689 and 1690; magis- trate for Bristol County, July 7, 1691, and justice of the peace in Dart- mouth, May 27, 1692. He is named as one of the fifty-six proprietors of Dartmouth in the confirmatory deed of Gov. Bradford in 1694. June 12, 1695, he appeared in Boston in behalf of his townsmen, to urge an abatement of taxes. He appears to have been for many years largely interested in the coastwise trade, and had a wharf and warehouse at Acushnet. In 1698 he was part owner of the sloop Hopewell, and in 1709 of the sloop Joanna and Thankful. In 1 700, by way of fulfilment of his promise made thirty years before to the Sandwich constable, he pur- chased a large amount of realty in that village, including the grist- mill, fulling-mill and weaving-shop, which was valued at the time of his death at £3460. His estates in Dartmouth were extensive and valuable, comprising several farms and dwelling houses, a saw and grist-mill, a well-stocked store and warehouse, and other property, amounting in all to more than £15,000 — a large sum for those days. He married first (probably in Sandwich), Deborah, daughter of Ezra and Elizabeth (Burge) Perry of Sandwich. A Quaker and brother of Edward Perry, (born Nov. 28, 1654, died Feb. 19, 171 1), and second (date and place unknown), Rebecca (born 1662, died Jan. 23, 1741). Children of Seth and Deborah, born in Dartmouth except the first and perhaps the second : 4. i. John, 3 b. Oct. 23, 1675; d. Nov. 18, 1725. ii. Thomas, b. Sept. 1, 1677. Was a mariner, and was concerned with his father in the coastwise trade. Was master in 1702 of sloop Hopewell, trading between Boston and Connecticut. Married first (date and place unknown), Elizabeth Manser, of Charlestown (b. 1672), and second, July 16, 1702, Elizabeth Handley, of Boston b. 1680, d. Jan. 29, 1725-6). He must have died some years prior to 1 720, as in that year his widow is mentioned in his father's will as Genealogy of Thomas Pope and Descendants 17 "my former daughter-in-law, now wife of Lt. John Chipman of Sandwich." Names of his children, if any, have not been ascer- tained. iii. Susannah, b. July 31, 1681 ; d. Feb. 5, 1760; m. Dec. 31, 1701, Jona- than Hathaway, of Dartmouth.

He lived with his father on the homestead farm at Acushnet (Dartmouth), now covered by the thickly-settled village of Fairhaven, south of the bridge. He is named as one of the Dartmouth proprietors in the confirmatory deed of Gov. Bradford in 1694, having inherited the homestead after the death of his father in 1683. He had a wharf and warehouse at Acushnet. Married (date and place unknown) Alice Mind (died 1755). Children, bom in Dartmouth. i. Abigail, 3 b. Dec. 23, 1687; m.

He probably settled in Sandwich as early as 1709, where his father owned a grist-mill, fulling-mill and weave-shop, of which he was placed in charge. This property was given him by his father's will, with the somewhat peculiar provision that, in case he did not keep the works in proper repair, the executors were from time to time, as found necessary, to take charge of and repair them, and operate them until the expenditures had been paid. Nevertheless, on October, 1 734, we are told . that "a committee waited upon the miller, Mr. Pope, to know if they could not be better served in grinding their corn."

Fourth Generation Seth 4 Pope {John? Seth, 2 ). Born in Sandwich, Jan. 3, 1701; died 1769. He was a respected citizen of that town, and was frequently chosen to fill positions of public trust. In 1749 he removed to Lebanon, Conn., where he bought a farm at the north end of "Town Street". In the spring of 1759 he sold this property and purchased a large tract on the borders of Plainfield and Voluntown, Conn., where is now the village of Sterling Hill. In 1760 was rated £45 10s. among the tax-payers of the "old society" of Plainfield, Ct. April 28, 1762 admitted inhabitant of Voluntown.

Gershom, b. Aug. 22, 1743, d. March 22, 1810. Thomas 4 Pope (John, 3 Seth 2 ). Born in Sandwich, 1708; died March 2, 1784. Resided in Sandwich, and afterwards in Dartmouth near the junction of Acushnet Avenue and the Fairhaven road. His dwelling was the first building burned by the British troops after leaving the "head of the river" in their raid of 1778. Married first, Sept. 26, 1735, Thankful Dillingham, of Harwich (born 1718, died April 13, 1756); and second, * Probably to be identified with Elizabeth Pope who married (i) Edmund Pearsall (or Purcell) and (2) Joseph Tobey. She lived in Martha's Vineyard during the Revolution in which war she lost both her husband and her father. She had children before she married Joseph Tobey, and moved to Smyrna, Chenango Co., N. Y., in 1796, where they were among the earliest settlers. Joseph Tobey came to Smyrna first in 1795 with Joseph Porter but did not bring his family until the next year. Joseph Porter's wife was Jerusha Pope, also a daughter of John Pope, She did not live long and was buried on the farm where she had made her home, now known as the Talcott farm close by Smyrna village. John Pope is said to have lived in Providence, R. I., during the Revolution and to have entertained General Washington in his home. The Tobey family have a letter written under date of Sep. 27, 1757, by Solomon Athearn of Tisbury in Martha's Vineyard to John Pope. In this letter John Pope and family are addressed as "Dear Children." Joseph Tobey and his wife are buried in the cemetery on the Tobey homestead 1 1-2 miles west of Smyrna village. This has remained in the possession of the family since it was first settled by them 120 years ago and is now occupied by Edmund Pope Tobey. The only reason for questioning the identity of "Betty" and "Elizabeh" is a discrepancy in the record of birth as given by F. L. Pope and that computed from the age asstated on tombstone. This says "Elizabeth Tobey Died August 6, 1848, aged 83 years." Smith's Chenango and Madison County History makes the statement that Elizabeth Tobey lived to an age up- wards of 84 years. If date of death is given correctly on tombstone, as it probably is, and she is identified with "Betty", she was in her 94th year at the time of her decease. Joseph Tobey died Feb. is, J830, aged 71 years. Edmond Pearsall Tobey, a grandson of Joseph and Elizabeth Tobey, married Lucy Pope Woodard (25).

In 1809 he removed to Great Barrington, where he was for many years a leading citizen and a prominent mason. Was several times chosen selectman in Alford and G.

Franklin Leonard 8 Pope (Ebenezer, 7 Ebenezer} Seth} Seth} John, 3 Seth*). Born in Great Barrington, Dec. 2, 1840. Was telegraph operator in G. B., Springfield and Providence, R. I., from 1857 to 1862; assistant engineer of American Telegraph Co. in New York until 1864; assistant engineer of Russo-American telegraph from Washington Territory to Siberia and Behring's Straits (partially completed and abandoned in 1867), in which capacity he made the first exploration of the region lying about the sources of the Skeena, Stickeen and Yukon rivers in British Columbia and Alaska. Genealogy of Thomas Pope and Descendants 29 This expedition required great courage and skill in dealing with the treach- erous Indians. It involved much hardship to traverse a country large tracts of which were wholly unknown. The necessary explorations were carried through successfully but the construction of the telegraph line, which was in- tended to connect the United States with Europe by Bering Strait, was given up on the completion of the first Atlantic cable. In 1867 he settled in Union township near Elizabeth, New Jersey, where he resided until 1894, though his place of business was in New York City. At the later date he removed to his former home at Great Barrington, Mass. He was an electrical engineer and author of note. He studied law and established himself as a patent lawyer, solicitor and electrical expert. In this capacity he was employed by some of the most important concerns in this coun- try, among them the Postal Telegraph Co., the Am. Bell Telephone Co., and the Westinghouse Electric Co. In 1869 he formed a partnership with Thomas A. Edison and James N. Ashley under the style of Pope, Edison and Co., Elec- trical Engineers. He was an expert draughtsman and held a position in the draughting department of the Scientific American from 1859 — 1861. He se- cured several patents, the majority being for a railroad semiphore block signal system for use on trunk lines. He was a member of the British Institution of Electrical Engineers and one of the first Vice-Presidents and second President of the Am. Institute of Electrical Engineers. He was a large contributor to various electrical journals, among them the Journal of the American Electrical Society of Chicago. He was editor of the "Electrical Engineer," and "The Telegrapher." His "Life and Work of Jo- seph Henry" is said to have been the ablest and most interesting paper on that subject. Perhaps his most noteworthy writing was "Modern Practice of the Electric Telegraph" which was carried through 15 editions. In 1886 he pre- pared a paper on the "Western Boundary of Massachusetts" embracing a study of the Indian and colonial history which involved an exhaustive research of the unpublished manuscripts archives of the adjoining states and local town and country records. This has been pronounced a model historical work. He died from an electric shock received in the basement of his home in Great Barrington, Oct. 13, 1895. He was alone at the time and just how the accident occurred could not be determined. To the descendants of Thomas Pope he is of special interest because of the work done in study of the family history. As an expression of our appreci- ation, his portrait forms the frontispiece of this volume. The results of his study as far as completed were published in the N. E. Historical and Genealogical Register for Jan., 1888. He contemplated a complete history of the family. Some of his unpublished records have been available to the present committee and all corrections of his manuscript that have come to light have been made. He was also the one who planned the Pope Convention held on the old home- stead of Gates Pope (171 ) at Columbus Quarter, Chenango County, New York, August 22, 1888. 175 were present. This gathering did more than any other single thing to stimulate an interest in the geneaology of the family. For this occasion a somewhat elaborate program was prepared. The Hon. Seth G. Pope, (17,) acted as chairman. Wm. F. Langworthy (219) gave the welcome in a brief- speech. Addresses were made by Rev. John D. Pope, now of Lynn, Mass. 30 Genealogy of Thomas Pope and Descendants (a distant relative whose line of descent is not given in this volume) and Ralph W. Pope (19). Daniel Eaton Pope, Esq., (176) read a poem prepared especially for the occasion. Franklin Leonard Pope gave the principal address which dealt with the early history of the family.

He was a pioneer in the operation of the telegraph and in electric light and telephone development. In 1864 he had charge of the war telegraph wire between Washington and New York. In 1866 he was an operator in Boston working by the side of Thomas A. Edison. Genealogy of Thomas Pope and Descendants 31 He established the first telephone service in New York City and the first electric light plant in Brooklyn. From 1900 to 1903 he was general manager of the Bell Telephone Co., of Buffalo, N. Y. He was connected with electrical work from the age of 14 until the last of his life.

On March 1, 1762, his father gave him half of the homestead farm on the Eastern edge of Plainfield, Conn. About this time he married Hannah Smith, a daughter of a Voluntown neighbor. He served in the Northern Army under Arnold and Gates, and tradition says he attained the rank of Captain. The War Department gives this record of him: c "It is shown by the records that one Gershom Pope was a member of Captain Samuel Hall's company of Light horse, 4th Connecticut Regiment commanded by Major Ebenezer Backus, Revolutionary War. His name appears on a pay roll of the above named company, without date, with remarks as follows: When march Sept. 8; when discharged, Nov. 2; Days in service. 60. This company was in service in the year 1776." On Sep. 8, 1776, his regiment marched for New York but was relieved on Nov. 1, and highly complimented in general order of George Washington. In 1779 he sold his property in Plainfield and removed to Bennington, Vt. In 1792 he purchased from Judge Cooper 240 acres of land in the extreme northern portion of the present township of Burlington, N. Y. for which he paid about twelve shillings per acre. Gershom and his seven stalwart sons, four of whom had grown to manhood, as well as two sons-in-law, 32 Genealogy of Thomas Pope and Descendants Joseph Smith, and William Monroe, all of whom were settled in the vicinity of Burlington when the Census of 1 790 was taken. The first town meeting in Burlington was held April 2nd, 1793; on which occasion Gershom Pope was elected Commissioner of highways, a position that meant more with the unsettled and primitive conditions of the country than now. He continued to reside in Burlington, an honored and respected citizen, until his death March 22, 1810, at the age of sixty- seven. His wife survived him twenty years, and in the churchyard at Burlington Green their mortal remains rest side by side. Two white marble slabs mark their graves. These are in contrast with the dark stones usually found on old graves. His stone has the following inscrip- tion: "In memory of Mr. Gershom Pope, who departed this life the 22nd of March, 1810, in the 68th year of his age. Lo! here entombed the body mouldering lies, Till the Arch-Angels trump shall bid it rise. The soul released with rapture wings its way To the bright regions of eternal days." There is also a marker placed by the D. A. R. It is traditional that he was a man of fine personal appearance, strong and positive character, un- blemished integrity, a consistent Christian, liberal in supporting the in- stitutions of religion, generous to less successful neighbors, an arbitrator and peacemaker always, traits which we know to have been abundantly reproduced in his posterity to this day. The following obituary notice of Hannah Smith Pope was printed at the time of her death, February 9, 1830: "Died in Burlington, on the 9th inst., Mrs. Hannah Pope, in the 88th year of her age. She was the relict of Gershom Pope who died in 1 8 1 o. He was a soldier of the Revolution and with him she suffered all the priva- tions, cares, and anxieties, incident to that interesting period of our country. They were among the first settlers of Burlington, and did much to alleviate the privations and hardships to which the first settlers of a new country are exposed. She was a native of Sterling, Conn. Through a long life, in all her relative duties, she supported a respectable and amiable charac- ter. Her descendants were twelve children, 129 grandchildren, and 115 great grand children, in the whole 256. She was truly a mother in Isreal."

No children, Genealogy of Thomas Pope and Descendants 5 1 It would seem that several families from Burlington came to Columbus about the same time for there was Joshua and John Brooks, brothers of Alice and Betsey, who settled near the Pope farm. How John and Alice gained possession of their farm, later known as the Charles Crego farm, is told by Ann Eliza Crego, "Uncle John and Aunt Alice loaded their house- hold goods in a wagon and came from Burlington. The only house on the place was a log cabin on the road occupied by some squatters. They stopped in front of the house; the squatter's wife was out gathering greens for dinner. Aunt Alice came down from the load, took a chair and carried it into the house, and locked the door and sat down, before the squatter's wife could get in. That gave Uncle John possession. In the book of Records of the 1st Free Baptist Church of Christ in Bur- lington, we find that on March 1 4, 1 8 1 o, a council met at the home of Bro- ther John Pope to organize a church. He and his wife being among the Charter members. Nearly all the church or business meetings were held at his house until June 20, 1816, when mention is made of a meeting house. There was scarcely a meeting that he did not preside as Moderator or acted in a committee to deal with some delinquent brother or sister. In 1820 the Free Baptist Church of Columbus Quarter was organized and again we find John Pope among the charter members. He was blind for many years before he died. His remains lie in the Lloyd's Burying Ground. 75- Timothy Pope 6 , (Gershom b , Selh*, John 3 , Seth 2 .) Born June 16, 1770; d. November 9, 1835; m. Hannah Stickney. (She was born May 10, 1775; d. April 18, 1842). Timothy Pope lived in Otsego County until 1804, when he moved to Oswegatchie, St. Lawrence County, N. Y. While in Otsego County, he was in the militia, serving as lieutenant in Francis Henry's Regiment. From. 1806 to 181 1 he served as Captain in St. Lawrence Co. About 1 8 16 he moved to what is now known as Popes Mills, where he lived until his death, by being killed by the bursting of a mill stone. He was a man of influence and considerable wealth. At the time of his death he owned two saw mills, a grist and woolen mill, and 2000 acres of land. A large dog which he owned refused to eat after his death and mourned himself to death. Three dates have been given for his death, 1832, 1835, and 1838. Children : i. Martins Linus, b. Aug. 14, 1794; d. Nov. 4, 1794. 76. ii. Gershom, b. Sep. 1, 1798; 86. iii. Eliphalet Stickney, b.

He was also in the battles of Springfield, Mo.,Rheas Mills, Ark., Prairie Grove, Pea Ridge, Ark., and all the minor engagements of his regiment. He was in charge of his company at Carthage when the court house was burned in his absence at headquarters. He served as First Lieut., and when the 3rd Kan. Regt. was consolidated with the 10th Kan. Regt. he became Brevet Major. After a furlough to his old home at Watkins, N. Y., in 1863 he returned to Kansas and with E. N. Morrill, afterwards Governor of Kansas, he raised another regiment and re-entered the war. Was discharged the first time at Springfield, Mo., Jan. 16, 1863.

Y. ioo Genealogy of Thomas Pope and Descendants Sidney 7 Pope, {Gales'', Gershom 5 , Seth A , John 3 , Selh 2 ). Born April 18, i8o y in Exeter, N. Y.; d. in Columbus, N. Y., July 23, 1884. His family moved to Columbus, in 1814, when he was five years of age. He married in Columbus, Dec. 26, 1830, Mellissa Howard, daughter of Zephaniah and Olive (Smith) Howard, (b. March 7, 1810; d. in Columbus, Dec. 3, 1899). The rites were performed by Edward Champlin, a Justice of the Peace. Their wedding trip was not taken in a Pullman car on one of our modern railroads with sleeping and dining apartments, nor with their wildest dream could they have imagined our horseless carriage with speed of from ten to sixty miles an hour, but happy and content they drove away with the primitive ox cart. All of his life he was a farmer and nearly all of his days were spent on the Pope homestead just off the main highway at Columbus Quarter. The Pope family's relation to the school was close and constant, for Gates Pope was trustee from 1815 to 1837, almost without interruption, his son Sidney Pope, from 1838 to 1865, and J. L. Pope from 1868 many times until his death. Deacon Sidney Pope united with the local Free Baptist Church in 1830, and was a member for fifty-four years and served it as deacon for forty- four years. He died at his home July 23, 1884, aged 75 years, 3 months and 8 days. The funeral services were conducted by the Rev. A. T. Worden of Ames, N. Y., and the Rev. John M. Langworthy, of Utica. He lies at rest in the Lamb's Comers Cemetery in his native town. He was always and everywhere known as a wise and good man and his advice and council was extensively sought by his neighbors and fellow citizens. He was hard working, thrifty, prosperous, generous, public spirited and enterprising. Had he been what is known as an "educated man" he might easily have won the first and highest places in business or politics, but his lot forbade, and he confined his power and genious to the humble affairs of the modest farmer. He was a philosopher by nature and very broad minded, loving to look out upon the advancement made in his time and join in the efforts as largely as his mission as a farmer permitted. Each year he expected to lay aside his work and go out through the busy world to see and learn what it was accomplishing and many of us can remember his graphic though homely descriptions upon his return of what he had seen and learned. Within his life the Erie Canal was opened from Buffalo to the Hudson, thus uniting the great lakes with the Atlantic. He saw Ethiopian slavery in all its power and crushed to death by an angry people. He knew of the building of the first railroads. He voted for Abraham Lin- coln, the great Liberator, and Savior of his nation. He knew the day of the tallow candle and pine torch, and with his closing years saw the marvels of the electric light. He was always sincere and faithful as a Christian and showed an un- usual love for all his family and relatives.
