Ham /I } Si, 19 Of PREFACE My first object in compiling this pamphlet was to make complete as far as possible the record of my great-grandfather, Nicholas Harris ,M. D., to assist Joseph Harris Cowell, M. D., of Saginaw, Mich., who is compiling a genealogy of all the descendants of both brothers, Thomas and William Harris, the first of our family in America Becoming interested in the families into which my ancestors married, I concluded to add a sketch of each. Will each person receiving a copy of this pamphlet kindly send to the compiler, 443 State St., Albany, N. Y., any cor- rections or additions as to names, dates or facts. I would like to thank all who have so patiently answered my queries, and only regret that I could find no clue to a few lines, but hope this genealogy may fall into the hands of some one who may, even now, send me some news of those I can not trace.

I., had land deeded to him by his father, Nicholas Harris, in 1732, in Scituate, (which town was set off from Providence, Feb. 1 731), and was made Freeman in Scituate, first Wednes- day in May, 1733. Scituate Town Records show that Jedediah Harris and wife Patience, deeded land there in 1755; and in 1758, they again deeded land, but then gave Cranston, R. I., as their residence. Cranston Town Records show a deed dated April 1, 1773, from Jedediah Harris and wife Patience, but this is the last trace I have of these ancestors. Jedediah Harris married Patience Brown, dau. of Othniel Brown, supposed to be of Chad. Brown's family, but am unable, as yet, to prove it. Their children, all probably born in Scituate, R. I., were: 55 Thomas 5 , b , d. ....... m. June J 9> x 7 6 3> Phebe, dau. of Elisha Burlingame, of Cranston, R. I. 56 James 5 , b , d m. Feb. 26, 1758, Dinah, dau. of John Burton, of Cranston, R.

I., but later of Cranston, R. I., m. Feb. 25, 1773, Phebe Tibbits, (b. May 26, 1748, in Warwick, R. I., d. April 22, 1837, in North Stephentown, N Y.), dau. of Henry and Phebe (Waterman) Tibbits of Warwick, R. I. Dr. Nicholas Harris and wife came from Rhode Island up to Little Hoosick, afterward called Stephentown, Rens. Co., N. Y. That Dr. Harris was a man of learning and cul- ture, is shown by his familiarity with Latin and Greek in his writings, by the elegance of his diction, and the rare beauty of his penmanship. His daughter-in-law, Mrs. Nicholas Brown Harris, has often told her grand- daughter, the compiler of these records, that he was of medium height and build, always the gentleman in his conversation and manner, thoughtful and polite in his family as well as abroad, and above all, an earnest christian. His wife, Phebe Tibbits, was tall and power- 8 fully built, a woman of great force of character and intel- lect like her husband. In "Landmarks of Rensselaer Co., N. Y.," p. 495, it says: "Dr. Nicholas Harris en- joyed an extensive practice, not only in Stephentown, but in other towns in Rensselaer Co. and in Massachusetts." He served throughout the American Revolution as a pri- vate, in Col. Kilian Van Rensselaer's Regiment, Albany Co. Militia. "New York in the Revolution," p. 105. "He was in four important battles — Battles of Johns- town, 1777; Caughuawaga, 1777; Oriskany, Aug. 3, 1777 and Saratoga, Oct. 7, 1777. For a time he served under Col. Willett and was with him at the battle of Oriskany, when he made his famous dash on the British camp with his two hundred and fifty men, and captured prisoners, camp, equipage and five flags." Children of Nicholas^ Harris, M.D., and Phebe (Tibbits) Harris were: 60 Henry Tibbits 6 , b. Sept. 18, 1773, d. between 1795 and 1804. 61 Cyrus 6 , b. Feb. 4, 1775, d.

Almyra never married, and spent the last years of her life with her sister Rhobe (Harris) Ferris, at Barry, Pike (60), 111., and is buried there. The remains of (59) Nicholas^ Harris, M. D., his wife, Phebe (Tibbits) Harris and three children (65) Phebe, (67) Cynthia and (71) Lorenzo were removed from grave yard on farm in North Stephentown and buried in lot belonging to the compiler of these records, in Albany Rural Cemetery, Oct. 30, 1902. Exact copy of quaint record which was found in the handwriting of Nicholas Harris, in front of old book, "Benson on the Epistles," published in 1734.

Dr. Harris practised medi- cine in Sand Lake, N.Y. A Troy daily paper bearing date a few days after the death of Dr. Harris in 1840, says — " Besides his professional business he has filled many im- portant stations in the town, having been elected several times to the office of Supervisor and other town offices, which he has filled with honor to himself, to the benefit of the town and the entire satisfaction of the people whom he represented. He was also elected as a member of the Legislature of the State of New York in the year 1833. We ought also to record here that not only as a physician but as a man and neighbor he was admired and esteemed. Kind and benevolent to the poor, his house was always their home. It was to him that hundreds were in the con- stant habit of looking for coimsel and good advice, which he invariably stood ready to impart. By his death the community in general sustains an irreparable loss." Dr. Harris was a man of commanding presence, his massive head and fine face expressing his strength of character and keen intellect. Children of Nicholas Brown Harris, M.

The permission was granted, and he arrived in time to help turn the battle in our favor, the balance of the troops not arriving until the battle was over. For this meritorious conduct Col.

Oct. 23, 1895,) son of Alvin and Olive (Lord) Fowler, of Cohocton, N. Y. Amos Fowler was a descendent of "Mr. "William Fowler, First Magistrate of New Haven Colony, and of Thomas and Dorothy Lord, among the first settlers of Hartford, Conn. His grandfather, Mark Fowler, came from Lebanon, Conn., to Herkimer Co., N. Y., then a wilder- ness. Amos Fowler was educated in the public schools and academies of Fayetteville and Victory, N. Y., attended one course of lectures at Geneva Medical College, then went to New York and completed his course, graduating from the University of the City of New York in 1846. He began the practice of medicine in Memphis, N. Y. In 1850, when he married, he went to South Sand Lake, N. Y., and finally in 1S54, settled in Albany, where he soon had a very extensive practice, which continued until his death, Oct. 23, 1895. Dr. Fowler was Vice-President of the Albany County Medical Society, was a member of the State Medical Society and a delegate to that body and other medical conventions. Children of M. C. Harris and Amos Fowler, M. D. were: 154 Warren Hamilton 8 , b. Sept. 13, 1852, d. Jan'y 23, 1886, at Albany, N. Y. He was educated at the Albany Boys' Academy, and then went to Amherst i7 College, but failing health compelled him to give tip his cherished plans for a college training. When he grew stronger, he studied medicine with his father, attending lectures one winter at the Univer- sity of New York, and the next at the Jefferson Med- ical College in Philadelphia, Pa., graduating from there March 12, 1879. He settled in Albany and soon had a large practice, which proved too great a strain for his physical strength and he died in his early manhood, full of promise for the profession which he so loved, and devoted himself to so con- scientiously. He never married. 155 Caroline Isabella 8 , b. Sept. 17, 1S57. 156 Martha Harris 8 , b. April 19, 1861, d. Jan'y 22, 1864. 157 Frank Harris 8 , b. March 17, 1865, d.

His public life began with an election to the Assembly in 1844. He was chosen Senator in 1846, and in the same year, was elected to the Constitutional Convention, which framed the Constitution now, with some modification in force. In 1S47, he was elected a Judge of the State Supreme Court and held the position for twelve years. The published opinions of Judge Harris, during the twelve years he sat upon the bench, are continually referred to for lucid exhibition of the principles of the law. They evince extensive learning and keen discernment, power of analysis and strength of reasoning. In 1861, he was elected to the Senate of the United States. William M. Evarts and Horace Greeley were his competitors, and he was the successor of William H. Seward. Entering the Senate just at the outbreak of the rebellion, he served throughout that momentous period of our history, and contributed, by his counsels, his voice and his vote to the triumph of the Union cause. He was most efficient in raising a regiment of cavalry for the Union, which was called after his name, as was also another body of troops. He was the intimate and trusted friend of President Lincoln, and was among those chosen from the Senate to accompany the remains of the beloved president to i8 their final resting place. As a senator, Judge Harris was placed upon the important committees on foreign re- lations and judiciary, and in the former, was closely- associated with Senator Sumner, to whom he became greatly attached. Senator Harris was also a member of the Select Joint Committee on the Southern States. The Albany Argus of Dec. 3, 1875, the day after the death of Judge Harris, said : "Ira Harris was a great man in all the essentials and qualities of greatness. He was great in native endowments, in power of application, and in intellect, bearing upon his massive shoulders, a head richly grand in its powers — he was great in his aspirations for his desire was simply to know and do right. He was great in nobility of character, in his intuitions, and sym- pathies, and in the calm equipoise of his nature, and more than all, great in all the elements of christian manhood. He was courtly in bearing and manner, yet dignified and deferential to all." Judge Harris was a trustee of Union College, Chancellor of Rochester University from its foundation until his death. A trustee of Vassar College, and a professor of the Albany Law School for the last twenty years of his life. He married 1st, about 1829, Clarissa Tubbs, (b. Oct. 16, 1801, in Homer, N. Y., d.

Thomas Harris came to New England with his brother, William, and Roger Williams, in ship Lion (or Lyon), from Bristol, Eng., Dec. i, 1630, and landed at Salem, Mass. Anne Harris, of Providence, R. I. and Parnill, wife of Thomas Roberts, of Newport, R. I., were their sisters. In July, 1676, William and Thomas Harris asked administration of Town Council of Newport, on estate of Parnill*, widow of Thomas Roberts, they being the only brothers of deceased. According to a written record of Nicholas Harris 5 , M. D., (who was born in 1749 and whose father Jedediah 4 was living while his grandfather, the 2nd Thomas Harris was, and hence, must have heard something of origin of family), his first ancestors in this country, Thomas, and brother William, "came from the town of Deal, in the Island of England." William and Thomas Harris went with Roger Williams from Salem, Mass., to Providence, R. I. (see note), and about Aug. *Prov. Rec. vi., 85. Note. — There is published a volume, "Collections of the Rhode Island Historical Society," 1902, devoted entirely to copies of the original letters of the bitter controversy between Roger Williams and William Harris, in which neither had spared invective, Williams calling Harris 'that prodigy of pride,' who, being an impudent morris dancer in Kent, under the cloak of jests against the bishop, goes into flight to New England, etc." The volume also contains copies of William Harris' letters, written in captivity — for in returning to England the third time on business, the ship in which he sailed, Unity, was taken, Jan'y 24, 1680, by an Algerine Corsair, and he was sold in Barbary and after more than a year's slavery, was ransomed at a high price. 5° 20, 1637, they signed the following compact: "We, whose names are hereunder, desirous to inhabit the town of Provi- dence, do promise to subject ourselves in active or passive obe- dience to all such orders or agreements as shall be made for public good of the body in an orderly way, by the major assent of the present inhabitants, members of families incorporated together, into a town of fellowship, and such others whom they shall admit unto themselves only in civil things." July 27, 1640, Thomas Harris and thirty-eight others, signed an agree- ment for a form of government. On Sept. 2, 1650, he was taxed -£i. From 1652 to 1663, he was Commissioner; in 1654, Lieutenant; in 1655, Freeman. Bishop's "New England Judged," published in London in 1703, says, "that in July, 1658. — After these, came Thomas Harris, from Rhode Island, into your Colony, who, Declaring against your pride and oppression, as he could have liberty to speak in your meeting place at Boston, after the Priest had ended, zuarning the people of the dreadful, terrible day of the Lord God, which was com- ing upon that Town and Country, him much unlike to Nineveth, you pulled down and hall*d him by the hair of his head, out of your meeting, and a hand was put on his mouth to keep him from speaking forth, and then had before your Governor and Deputy, with other Magistrates, and committed to prison with- out warrant or mittimus that he saw, and shut up in a close room, none suffered to come at him, nor to have provisions for his money; and the next day whipped with so cruel stripes, without showing any law that he had broken, tho' he desired it of the jailor, and then shut up again for eleven days more, five of which, he was kept without bread (your jailor not suf- fering him to have any for his money, and threatened one of the other prisoners very much for bringing him a little water on the day of his sore whipping), and all this because he would not work for the jailor and let him have eight pence in twelve pence of what he should earn," etc., etc. From 1664 to 1673, Thomas Harris was Deputy to the General Court. 1664 to 1669, member of Town Council. Feb. 19, 1665, he drew lot 7 in division of lands. It fronted on what is now South Main street, Providence, about 122 feet wide and containing nearly five and one-half acres, running back to what is now Hope street. From 1666 to 1675, he was Assistant, and in May, 1667, as surveyor, he laid out the lands, etc. Aug. 5" i4, 1676, he was on a committee that recommended certain conditions, under which Indian captives should be disposed of by the town. They were to be in servitude for a term of years. April 27, 1683, he made the statement, that about 1661, being then a surveyor, he laid out " a three score acre lot for my son Thomas, at Paugachauge Hill, and a 25 acre lot on the south side," etc. His will was dated June 3, 1686, and proved July 22. Executor, son Thomas ; overseers, sons-in-law, Thomas Field and Samuel Whipple. Sept. 1, 1687, his widow, Elizabeth Harris was taxed 1 s. Thomas Harris 2 , (son of Thomas 1 and Elizabeth Harris), m. Elnathan Tew, and lived in Providence. Feb. 19, 1665, he had lot 49, in a division of lands. 167 1, '79, '80, '81, '82, '85, '91, '94, '97, 1702, '6, '7, '8, 'io, he was Deputy to the General Court. 1684, '85, '86, member of Town Council. His will was dated June 21, 1708 and proved April 16, 17 n. Executors, his wife Elnathan Tew and son Henry. On some of the grave stones in the old North Burying Ground, in Providence, R. I., are supposed to be the Harris Coat of Arms — three martlets on a shield. William Harris, who caused this coat of arms to be put on his daughter's grave stone in 1723, was son of Thomas 2 , and b. about 1672, was fif- teen years old when Thomas 1 died, and must have had the tra- ditions and acquaintance of the first generation. This coat of arms he had on three other stones erected to his children and it was later put on his own stone, and this was probably adapted from the arms given at the head of this sketch, used by the Harris families of Cheshire and Devonshire.

Henry Tew, father of Richard Tew, of Newport, R. I , lived at Maidford, Northampton Co., England, and it was there Richard Tew married Mary Clarke, as the following instru- ment, recorded in Rhode Island, in Book I, Land Evidences, Sec'y of State Office, shows "this indenture, made the 18th day of Oct. in the 9th year of the reign of our Sovereign Lord, Charles of England and Ireland, King, Defender of the Faith, etc. Between Henry Tew, of Maidford, County of Northamp- ton, Eng. , Yeoman, and William Clarke, of Prior Hardwick, Co. of Warwick, Eng., Yoeman witnesseth : That for and in con- sideration of a marriage by the grace of God, shortly to be had and solemnized between Richard Tew, son and heir apparent of said Henry and Mary Clarke, one of the daughters of said William Clarke, etc., etc." Then follows an engagement entered into by Henry Tew, to make over on his part, to his son Richard, houses, barns, tenements, etc. In 1640, Richard Tew and his wife Mary Clarke, came to New England, his daughter, Seaborn, receiving her name because born on the voyage over. In subsequent years he became a Quaker, and had recorded upon the Friends' Records his children's births. 1642 he lived in Newport. In 1654,' 56, '57> '58, '6°, '63, he was Commissioner. In 1655, Freeman. In 1657, '62, '63, '66, '67, he was Assistant. In 1661, he was on a committee to receive contributions for the agents in England, (Roger Williams and John Clarke). In 1663, he is named in the Royal Charter, granted Rhode Island by Charles II. In 1663, '64, '65, he was Deputy to the General Court. In 1667, he was on a committee appointed in the matter of Prison and Pound. In 1 671, he was member of a special court to try two Indians. A tradition of the family relates that he died in London, in 1673, where he had gone to look after some property. His widow, Mary Clarke, died about 1687. His will was proved March 27, 1674. Executors : Son, Henry Tew, of Newport, and brother, John Tew. He calls himself of New- port in Rhode Island in New England, Yeoman, and now of St. 53 Leonards, Shoreditch, Middlesex, Eng.

William Hopkins, who emigrated to New England in 1635, married in England, Joanna Arnold, (baptised Nov. 30, 1577), dau. of Thomas Arnold, (see sketch of Arnold family). William 1 and Joanna (Arnold) Hopkins had three children, Frances 2 , Thomas 2 and Elizabeth 2 . Of these, Thomas 2 , (b. in England April 7, 1616), married his own cousin, Eliza- beth Arnold, dau of William and Christian (Peak) Arnold. He probably came to New England with his father, William Hopkins, and settled in Providence, R. I., about 1640. July 27, 1640, he and thirty-eight others signed an agreement for a form of government. He was Commissioner in 1652, '59, '60 and Freeman in 1665. Feb. 19, 1665, had lot 93 in divi- sion of lands. 1665, '66, '67, '72, was Deputy to General Court, and Member of Town Council in 1667, '72. i 54 Thomas 2 Hopkins moved to Oyster Bay, L. I , at the out- break of King Philip's War, with a son (who died before his father), and died there in 1684. Thomas 2 and his wife, Eliza- beth (Arnold) Hopkins had three children: William 3 , b. 1647, d. July S, 1723. Thomas 3 , b. 1650. d. April 21, 17 18. And a son who moved to Oyster Bay, L. I. Thomas Hopkins 3 , m. April 1, 1678, Mary Smith, dau. of John Smith (mason), and wife, Elizabeth, and settled upon the homestead belonging to his father, in the northerly part of the township of Providence. On this estate they reared their family of eight sons and four daughters — the youngest of all being Anne, who married Nicholas Harris, of Providence, (b. April 5, 167 1, d. March 27, 1746.) Thomas Hopkins made his will April 26, 1711, distributing in an equitable manner, his possessions among his children, and providing for the support of his widow. Much of his landed estate was situated in the western part of the town that was afterwards set apart to make the towns of Scituate and Glocester, and in this section, every member of his family subsequently made a settlement and were prominent and leading inhabitants.

The family of Arnold is of great antiquity, having its origin among the ancient princes of Wales. According to a pedigree in the College of Arms, they trace from Ynir, King of Gwentland of the twelfth century, who married Nesta, dau. of Jestin ap Gurgan, King of Glamorgan, and it was supposed, until recently, that our ancestor William Arnold, was a son of Thomas Arnold, of Cheselbourne, Dorsetshire, Eng., who was descended in a direct line from this ancient prince, but Mr. Edson S. Jones, of Port Chester, N. Y., after a critical 55 research of records in England, finds that theory incorrect and is still trying to discover the father of our ancestor William. The coat of arms on the Arnold grave stones in North Bury- ing Ground, Providence, R. I., bearing date 1770 — gu. on a chevron ermine, between three pheons, or., — are the same as borne by Richard Arnold, of Bagbere, Dorsetshire, Eng., who died in 1595, and who was father of Thomas Arnold of Chesel- bourne, referred to above. Joanna Arnold, sister of William, baptized Nov. 30, 1577, married William Hopkins, in England and emigrated to New England with William Arnold in 1635. William Arnold, b. June 24, 1587, m. Christian Peak, dau. of Thomas Peak, and came to New England, June 24, 1635, with his wife and four children : Elizabeth, Benedict, b. Dec. 21, 161$; Joanna and Stephen. He was in Hingham, Mass., for a time, then came to Providence, in 1636, where he received grants of land from Roger Williams, and his initials W. A. are second in the Initial Deed. In 1639, he removed to Pawtuxet, where he resided until his death, about 1676. He was held in high esteem and filled various offices of trust. His eldest son, Benedict Arnold, b in Leamington, Warwickshire, Eng. was first Governor of Rhode Island.

John Smith (the mason) was President of the Colony of Rhode Island in 1649. I n l6 5 2 ne was chosen President of Providence and Warwick. In Fuller's "History of Warwick," page 76, there is a picture of the "Old Stone Castle" built by this John Smith in / / 56 1649- ^ was demolished in 1795. He died in Providence in 1660.

Henry Tibbits, the first of the family in New England, lived in Kings Town, Rhode Island, and it is a tradition in the family that he came from Warwickshire, England. July 3, 1663 he and others of Narragansett desired to be under protection of Connecticut. May 3, 1665 he with others petitioned the Assembly of Rhode Island for accommodation of land, etc. in Kings Province. May 20, 1 67 1 he took oath of allegiance to Rhode Island, and Jan'y 1, 1672, he with five others bought a tract of land of Awashuwett, Chief Sachem of Quohesett in Narragansett — the two brothers and three sons of the sachem joining in the deed. July 29, 1679 he and forty-one others of Narragansett signed a petition to the King praying that he "would put an end to these differences about the government thereof, which hath been so fatal to the prosperity of the place," etc. \> 57 In 1690 he was Conservator of the Peace, and in 1705 he was Deputy to the General Court. His will was made in 1708 and proved July 13, 17 13. Henry Tibbits 1 , m. Dec. 166 r, Sarah Stanton, (d. . . . 1708), dau. of Robert and Avis Stanton of Newport, R. I., and had eight children : Henry 2 , Ann 2 , George 2 , John 2 , Mary 2 , Sarah 2 , Martha 2 and Hannah 2 . The eldest of these eight children, Henry 2 Tibbits, (b. , d. Dec. 27, 1702 in Kingston, R. I.), m. Rebecca . . . . , (d. June 10, 1752 in Warwick, R. I.,) and had six children : Thomas 3 , Henry 3 , William 3 , Rebecca 3 , Avis 3 and Dinah 3 . In 1696, Henry 2 Tibbits, who m. Rebecca was made a freeman, and April 12, t7<03, his estate was admin- istered by his widow. Rebecca, at King's Town. She removed later to Warwick, R. I., with her family — just when is not known, but her descendants are still living on the farm there that she bought of William Potter, July 16, 1720. The will of Rebecca Tibbits, of Warwick, R. I., widow of Henry 2 Tibbits, was dated Jan'y 26, 173S and proved Aug. 10, 1752. Of these six children of Henry 2 and Rebecca Tibbits, above mentioned, the second son, Henry 3 Tibbits, m. Nov. 23, 1738, Phebe Waterman, (b d ) dau. of Capt John and Anne (Olney) Waterman, of Warwick, R. I. Henry 3 Tibbits d. Jan'y 17, 1765. leaving five children: Waterman*, b. April 13, 1741, O. S , d.

Of these five children, Phebe 4 , married Nicholas Harris, M. D. in 1773, and they moved up to Little Hoosick, afterward called Stephentown, Rens. Co., N. Y. Phebe's brother, Henry Tibbits, bought land along the Mohawk River, N. Y., and lived there, but do not know what became of his descend- ants. y»w Co- •rU'vn The compiler of these records visited the Tibbits home- stead in Warwick, R. I., in 1900, finding the same house in which her great grandmother, Phebe Tibbits Harris was born in 1748, in good condition, and containing much handsome old furniture and crockery. Mr. Benjamin Tibbits, who well 58 remembered hearing his grandfather, Waterman Tibbits, talk of his sister Phebe, who married Dr. Harris is still living there, a bachelor, the widow of his brother Daniel, keeping house for him.

Richard Waterman, born about 1590, emigrated from England in 1629, and first settled in Salem, Mass., where, according to "Original Record of Salem, from Dec. 1636 to July 12, 1637," he owned "So acres next to Daniel Ray," and had seven in family. He sympathized with the religious teachings of Roger Williams and followed him to Rhode Island in 1638, and was one of the eleven baptized by him in 1638-9; but later seems to have been a member of the Friends' Society, and his death is noted on their records at Portsmouth. He was one of the twelve grantees of Roger William's estate. He was a church officer and a Colonel of the militia and left his stamp upon society as a man of more than ordinary ability. He possessed valuable property in both Warwick and Provi- dence, and was buried on that part of his estate which now forms the southeast corner of Benefit and Waterman streets, in Providence, and where a monument was erected to him in 1S40. Col. Richard Waterman was a man of singular firmness and strength of character, and occupied a large place in the history of colonial times from the earliest settlement of Rhode Island. Richard 1 Waterman, (b. about 1590, d. Oct. 26, 1673), married Bethiah , (b , d. Dec. 13, 16S0), and had four children : Mehitable 2 , Wait 2 , Nathaniel 2 and Resolved 2 . Resolved 2 Waterman (b I 63S, d. . . . 1670), m. in 1659, Mercy Williams, (b. July, 1640, d i7°5), dau. of Roger and Mary (Barnard) Williams and had five children: Richard 3 , Mercy 3 , John 3 , Resolved 3 and Wait 3 . 59 Of these five children, Capt. John 3 Waterman was a prominent man, being Deputy from 1706 to 1726. He inherited soon after coming of age, half of all the real estate that his grandfather owned in Warwick, R. I. In Fuller's History of Warwick, (page 12), will be found a sketch of the house built by him in Warwick. The old cemetery is near the house where Capt. John, his wife, and many of his descendants are buried. He m. in 1691, Anne Olney, (b. Jan'y 13, 1668, d. Oct. 26, 1745), dau. of Thomas and Elizabeth (Marsh) Olney, and had eight children: Elizabeth 4 , Mercy 4 , Anne 4 , John 4 , Benoni 4 , Resolved 4 , Phebe 4 and Patience 4 . Of these eight children, Phebe 4 Waterman, (b d ), m. Nov. 23, 1738, Henry Tibbits, (b d. Jan'y 17, 1765), of Warwick, R. I., and had five children: Waterman 5 , Charles 5 , Elizabeth 5 , Phebe 5 and Henry 5 . Of these five children, Phebe 5 Tibbits, (b. May 26, 1748, d. April 22, 1837, at North Stephentown, N. Y.), m.

The above is a description of the arms of Roger de Olnie, or Olney, who came from Normandy with William the Con- queror in 1066. His name appears in the Doomsday book, 6o which describes the apportionment of land to the followers of the Conqueror, and is claimed to be the first of the family in England. "Thomas Olney, the ancestor of the Olney's in America, had his birthplace in the City of Hertford, Hertfordshire, England, which city formed a part of the Parish of St. Albans. He received a "permit to emigrate to New England," April 2, 1635, in which permit his age was given as thirty-five, his wife Mary thirty, son Thomas three, and son Epenetus one, and came to Salem, Mass., by the ship Planter. He was appointed a surveyor in Jan'y, 1636, and granted forty acres of land at Jeffrey Creek, now known as Manchester, near Salem. He was made a freeman the same year and early associated with those who accepted the peculiar views of Roger Williams. With a number of others, he was excluded from the Colony March 12, 1638. Accordingly, with eleven others, they formed a new settlement at the head of Narragansett Bay, which they named Providence, in grateful remembrance of their deliver- ance from their enemies. They thus became the "Original Thirteen Proprietors of Providence," having purchased their rights from the Indians. Thomas Olney's prominence in the colony is shown by the various duties he was called upon to perform. In 1638 he was chosen the first treasurer. In 1647 he was chosen com- missioner to form a town government. In 1648 he was chosen Assistant for Providence and held the office almost continuously until 1663. In 1655, with Roger Williams and Thomas Harris, he was chosen a judge of the Justices Court. In 1656 he was chosen to treat with Massachusetts Bay about the Pawtuxet lands. In 1663 his name appears among the grantees of the Royal Charter of Charles II. In the same year he was chosen an Assistant under the new Charter. He was one of the founders of the First Baptist Church in Providence and at one time its acting pastor. He was evidently, a man of stern and decided opinions, and did not hesitate to advance his views among his neighbors. Of him, in his occupation as surveyor, it is said, as he entered upon the surrounding lands, with his field book, chain and compass, and mystic words, with the peculiar dignity of official characters of that day, he may well have inspired the 6i Indians with profound awe, and led them to feel that no Indian could henceforth dwell upon that part of their tribal property aeain. His homestead was located on North Main street, a short distance south of the State House. He was buried in the family ground at the rear of his dwelling. He was the pos- sessor of a large real and personal estate, and occupied one of the better houses in the Providence Plantations." — Olney Genealogy, by James H. Olney. He was born in 1600 and m.

Thomas 2 Olney, who was three years old when he came from England with his parents, became a leading spirit in the Rhode Island Colony early in life and was constantly engaged in public affairs to the time of his death. He was chosen Assistant during the years 1669, '70, '77 to '79. For thirty years he was a member of the Town Council, and fre- quently we find his name among the members of the Colonial Assembly. His signature occurs through a long term of years as Town Clerk. He was ordained a minister in 166S and suc- ceeded the Rev. Gregory Dexter as pastor of the First Baptist church, serving until about the years 17 10 to 17 15. He severely criticised the methods and teachings of George Fox, a leading Quaker who came from England and resided some years in the Colony, in a document entitled "Ambition Anatomized," the original of which may be seen at the Rhode Island Histori- Note. — Parish Registers of St. Albans Abbe}', 1 558-1689, transcribed by W.

His house was located at the north end of Provi- dence, at the foot of Stamper's Hill.

In all the early history of New England, no one name stands out so prominent to day, in the eyes of the civilized world as that of the illustrious founder of " Rhode Island and Providence Plantations" — Roger Williams. After long research in England, Mr. Henry F. Waters claims ("Genealogical Gleanings in England" pp. 327 to 344), that Roger Williams was undoubtedly born in London, the son of James and Alice (Pemberton) Williams. James Williams was a merchant tailor of London, and died there in 1621, men- tioning in his will — wife Alice, sons, Sidrach, Roger, Robert and dau. Katharine Wightman, brother-in-law, Roger Pember- ton, etc. Roger Williams' mother, Alice, died in 1634, and in her will mentioned son Sidrach, son Roger, " now beyond the seas," son Robert, etc. Roger had a brother Robert, a school- master in Newport, R. I., and he mentions in one of his books another brother. Their mother, Alice Pemberton, was bap- tized in 1564 and was dau. of Robert and Catharine Pember- 63 ton of St. Albans, Hertfordshire, and a great granddaughter of Sir John Pemberton of Stanhope, Eng. June 25, 1621, Roger Williams was elected scholar in Sutton's Hospital, and July 7, 1625, Roger entered Pembroke College, Cambridge, taking his degree of Bachelor of Arts in Jan'y, 1627. He studied law with Sir Edward Coke, but abandoning it for the ministry, it was through Sir Edward's influence that he obtained Episcopal orders, and in 1629, was Chaplain to Sir William Masham of Otis, parish of High Laver, Essex Co. He soon espoused the cause of the Puritans or Dissenters and was fin- ally driven out of England by Bishop Laud. Roger Williams married in England Mary Barnard, and they embarked at Bristol, Eng. in ship Lion (Lyon), Capt. Wm. Pierce, Dec. 1, 1630, arriving in Boston Feb. 5, 163 1. His arrival gave great joy to the colonists, for he had been known to Winthrop and his associates in England as a "Godly minister " of gifts and learning, so they at once elected him their spiritual guide and teacher. But finding them "upon examination and conference an unseparated people," Williams in a few weeks left them for Salem, and there, April 12, 1631, became their minister. In the latter part of 1631, he removed to Plymouth and became assistant pastor to Ralph Smith until Aug., 1633, when he returned to Salem, became assistant to Rev. Mr. Skelton and on the death of the latter (the next year), became pastor. In 1634 Roger Williams built him a large and commodious house in Salem, second only to the one built for Governor Endicott. This house, after two and a half centuries, was in 1886, still standing and in excel- lent preservation. Oct. 9, 1635, the General Court sentenced him to banishment from Massachusetts Colony, for his devo- tion to the principles of free conscience, and liberty of religious belief, untrammeled by civil power. The Court finally resolved to send him back to England, and in Jan'y, 1636, sent a messenger to Salem to apprehend him, but when the officers "came to his house, they found he had gone three days before, but whither they could not learn." In his famous letter to Major Mason, written in 1670, from Providence, William says: "I was sorely tossed for one fourteen weeks in a bitter winter season, not knowing what bed or bread did mean." He was given food and shelter by the 6 4 Indians, among whom he had worked so faithfully, finally reaching the place he afterward called Providence. Before reaching there he had been joined by five of his Salem friends, among whom was William Harris, and before Oct. 8, 1638, several more came. Among them were our ancestors, Thomas Harris (brother of William), William Arnold, Thomas Olney and Richard Waterman. To these he deeded for a considera- tion of ^30, an equal privilege with himself in his recent purchase of land from Canonicus and Miantomi, Indian chiefs. The "home lot" of Roger Williams in Providence, extended from what is now North Main street, east to what is now Hope street, and comprised about seven acres. The same year, 1636, he was banished from Massachusetts Colony, he acted as peacemaker and interpreter for that Colony, preventing a coalition of the Pequots with the Narragansetts and Mohegans. Of this he wrote — "Three days and nights my business forced me to lodge and mix with the bloody Pequot ambassadors, whose hands and arms me thought reeked with the blood of my countrymen murdered by them on the Conneticut river." In March, 1639, Roger Williams publicly professed his belief that immersion only was baptism, and founded in Provi- dence, the first Baptist church in America. In 1642, Roger Williams went to England on business for Providence Planta- tions. He easily obtained, through his friend Sir Henry Vane (formerly Harry Vane, Gov. of Massachusetts Colony), a charter for Providence Plantations. From 1647 to 1672, he was Assistant. In Nov. 1 65 1, he again went to England with John Clarke, on business for R. I. Colony, and while there, was again entertained at Belleau, the beautiful estates of Sir Henry Vane in Lincolnshire, and also speaks of being at Hugh Peters' lordly mansion. Williams was intimately associated with John Milton, then Sec'y of the Council of State, and was in friendly relation with Cromwell, with whom he discussed affairs of State. He wrote to his wife while abroad, — "My dearest love, and companion, in this vale of tears, I send thee, though in winter, a handful of flowers made up in a little posy, for thy dear self and our dear children to look and smell on, when I, as the grass of the field shall be gone and withered, etc." Soon after Williams returned from England, in Sept., 1654, he was made first President of Rhode Island Colony, and continued 65 in that office until 1657; In 1655, he was made freeman. 1658 to 1 66 1 Commissioner; 1667 Deputy; 1670 to '80, member of the Town Council. May 6, 1682 he wrote Gov. Bradstreet, calling himself "old and weak." Jan'y 16, 1683, he signed a deed, and he died early in the spring of that year. Roger Williams was the founder of the State of Rhode Island and the first advocate in modern times of the entire freedom of conscience. The truths for whose sake he was persecuted and banished, and which he toiled so long to establish, have become incorporated into our whole social system, and are so familiar that they have ceased to remind us of their original discoverer and advocate. His life was one long season of incesant work, and this in nearly every sphere of exertion which the times presented. His knowledge, especially in history and theology, appears to have been extensive, and his scholarship in the classical languages, un- usually varied and exact The printed works of Roger Williams are : "A Key into the Language of America, or An Help to the Language of the Natives in that part of America called New England." London, 1643. "Mr. Cotton's Letter lately printed, Examined and Answered," London, 1644. "The Bloody Tenet of Persecution for Cause of Conscience, etc." London, 1644. Mr. Cotton wrote a reply to this, and Mr. Williams' fourth book was a rejoinder to that of Mr. Cotton and was entitled, "The Bloody TenetYet More Bloody," London, 1652. "The Hireling Ministry None of Christ's," London, 1652. "Experiments of Spiritual Life and Health and their Preservatives," London, 1652. The last of Roger Williams' published writings is the account of the controversy he had with the Quakers. It was printed at Boston in 1676, and was entitled: "George Fox digg'd out of his Burrowes. " Roger Williams, (b 1599, d 1683, in Providence, R.

Motto: — Toujours pret. The fess wreathed appears on seals of members of this family early in the fifteenth century. The ancient domains of the noble House of Carmichael are of great extent — they are near Lanark, in the county of Lanark, Scotland — and the family has long held the first place in the county, with the lordly houses of Hamilton and Douglas. The great woods of Carmichael are stretched on two sides of the lofty eminence called Carmichael Hill and are distant not many miles from the high mountain of Tintock and the river Clyde. The mansion house is embowered among venerable trees, and altogether the scenery is sylvan, wild and striking. We have no trace of any other family ever having pos- sessed this estate. The earliest ancestor whom we find on record is William, Lord of Carmichael, who lived in 1350. But it is probable that his ancestors had held the estate for many previous generations. His great grandson, Sir John de Carmichael held high command in the Scottish auxiliary force 67 sent to the assistance of King Charles VI of France, against the English. He married Lady Mary Douglas, dau. of George, Earl of Augus, and died in 1436. He had two children, William, his heir, and John. The descendants of William flourished in an uninterrupted suc- cession of Barons of Carmichael for seven generations. Sir John was the last Baron in direct descent, and getting very much involved in debt, he was compelled to sell his estates to a distant relative, James Carmichael of Hyndford, a descend- dant of John, second son of the original William. Sir James Carmichael died at Carmichael House, in 1672, at the age of ninety-four. The ancient mansion has long since ceased to exist, but early in the eighteenth century a new house on a grand scale was commenced but only the wings joined by a gallery were completed. Carmichael House has been very little inhabited by the successive proprietors for some years and the Hyndford title has now become extinct (Burke's " Vis- ition of Seats and Arms," 1855). " The Carmichael pedigree gives only main line — there are many sources of descent belong- ing to the family which do not appear therein. Sir James Carmichael of Hyndford, 1st Lord Carmichael had two sons whose names do not appear in the pedigree (see Douglas), Captain John and Samuel Carmichael, though they are declared in documents signed by Lord Carmichael to be his 4 lawful sons.' Lord Carmichael had also a brother, John, and in the troubles of the times at least two of them came to Ireland (where Rachel, sister of 1st Lord Carmichael, was — she m. Archibald Hamilton of Kitteleigh) and from these persons the Irish Carmichaels descend." (From letter of Rev. Canon F. F. Carmichael, D. D., Dublin, Ireland, 1903.) John Carmichael with two brothers, Peter and James, came to America — family tradition says, from Glasgow, Scot- land — about 1760, landing at Baltimore, Md. James is said to have remained in Baltimore and Peter to have gone west, but nothing is known positively about their descendants. John Carmichael was said to have learned the tailor's trade after coming to America, and while making clothes for the family of Abraham Canfield of Bedford, Westchester Co., N. Y. — staying at the house, as was the custom then — fell in love with the young daughter Esther. The attachment was opposed as young Carmichael was a stranger and penniless, so 68 Esther climbed out of her bedroom window one night, and they ran away and were married — they were afterwards forgiven. The compiler of these records has often heard her grand- mother, Martha Carmichael Harris (dan. of above John and Esther) tell of a long visit in her childhood at her grandmother Canfield's in Bedford, also of the gold ring sent from Scotland by her father's sister Nancy to his bride — Esther Canfield. John Carmichael and his young wife came up to Sand Lake, Rens. Co., N. Y., and settled on a farm where both died and are buried. Their original house is still standing and bears the impress of its once having been a large substantial house. John Carmichael fought in the Revolution — see " History of Rensselaer Co." by N. B.

The name Can field, Camfield or Camfyld is a corruption of Camville or Camvyle, a Norman baronial family from Cam- ville near Contance, Normandy, France. In Normandy, Canville now exists, a place about five miles from Contance — the river and valley Cance are near by. William de Camville is noted as benefactor of church of Jumieges, France, in 978. In Battle Abbey, (at Battle of Hastings in 1066), are found W. de Camvile, G. de Kamvile and Richard de Camvile. In "Domesday Book 1086," Richard de Camville, surnamed Puingnant, held several grants of land in Oxford, Middleton and other counties, from William the Conqueror, some of which land still belongs to descendants of the family. The name in England at present exists in Hertfordshire, a residence called Camfield Place. In Essex: Little Canfield, Great Canfield, Canfield Park, Lodge, Hall, etc. In Northampton- shire, at Harleston, there is Camfeld Hedge. In Lancashire, the de Canfield's have lived for some six hundred years. 75 Matthew Canfield, (or Campfield), our first American ancestor, was b. at Harleston, Newbottle Hundred, Co. North- ampton, England, baptized in St. Andrew's church, Feb. 27, 1604, and was son of Gregorie Calmfeilde, whose will was proved in 1635. It is probable that Matthew came to America soon after this. He was first heard of in New Haven Colony in 1639; became a member of the Congregational church in 1642; signed oath of fidelity July 1, 1644 and was one of the first settlers to become a free planter and possess property. He held various positions in the Colony: Collector of College, 1644; Appraiser 1646, etc. In 1652, he conveyed home lot in New Haven and moved to Norwalk, Conn. In Norwalk Colony he was again prominent, holding office of Juryman, Arbitrator, Magistrate, Representative, Surrogate, Collector of Customs and Inspector of Troops. He and three others signed petition to Charles II. in 1 664 for Charter of Conneticut, and he is named in the Charter granted in 1665 — historically known as hidden in the Charter Oak at Hartford. He held much land in Norwalk, and conspicuously a pasturage called to this day "Camfield Island." In 1666, becoming dissatisfied with this Colony in its desire to consolidate with New Haven Colony, Matthew Campfield (or Canfield), moved to Newark, N. J., with thirty- nine others and founded that city. At Newark, he was one of the few honored with the prefix "Mr." and at once became prominent in the affairs of the town, being Deputy, then Magistrate, etc. He m. in New Haven, Conn., before 1643, Sarah Treat, dau. of Richard Treat and sister of Robert Treat, afterward Governor of Conneticut. His original will, dated March 19, 1673, is on file at Trenton, N. J., and was proved June 11, 1673. He had nine children : Samuel 2 , bap. Oct. 19, 1645, Sarah 2 , bap. May 24, 1647, Ebenezer 2 , b. . . . 1649, Matthew 2 , b. . .1650, Hannah 2 , b. June 21, 1651, Rachel 2 , b. July 29, 1652, Mary 2 , Ruth 2 and Jonathan 2 . His children went to Newark, N. J., with him, but his eldest son, Samuel, returned to Norwalk, Conn., in 1668. (See Canfield Genealogy, by Frederick A. Canfield, for descent of sons who remained in Newark, N. J.) Samuel 2 Canfield, eldest son of Matthew and Sarah (Treat) Canfield, was baptized Oct. 19, 1645, at New Haven, Conn. He m. about 1668, Elizabeth Willoughby, dau. of Francis 7 6 Willoughby, Deputy Governor of Mass., and her son Jedediah Canfield mentions her in his will as the "Honorable," a title then, as now given to ladies of rank. Samuel Canfield seems to have bought and sold a great deal of property in Norwalk, Conn., some of which is still known as Campfield Hill, Pond, Field, etc. He d. in 1690, leaving five children : Ebenezer 3 , b. 1670; Abigail 3 , b , 1673; Matthew 3 , b . . . . ; Samuel 3 , b 1679; Jedediah 3 , b 1681 ; and his widow Elizabeth, his executrix. She made an agreement with her children about the distribution of property in 1701 and must have died soon after. The youngest child, Jedediah 3 , b. 1681, sold much of his property in Norwalk between 1702 and 1729, for there are recorded about thirty deeds of conveyance from him. There is a suggestion that he m. Hannah Betts, but no proof as yet. In 1730 he moved to Bedford, N. Y., and bought the land which was held by his descendants until 1850. Jedediah's 3 children were: Abraham 4 , b. March . . . , 1720; Jedediah 4 m. Rose Ketcham ; Joseph 4 ; Nathan 4 ; Lydia 4 m. Drake Miller; Elizabeth 4 m. Abram Wescott and James 4 . Jedediah's eldest son, Abraham 4 , was b. at Norwalk, March 1720, m. probably in Bedford, N. Y. , Rachel Ketcham, Jan'y 27, 1748, and lived on his father's property at Bedford, where he d. Sept. 29, 18 13. When the Revolutionary War broke out, Abraham Canfield was too old to enlist, but some of his brothers served. The house in which Abraham lived, was attacked by the British, in July, 1779, they taking possession of everything they wished, and when they left, set fire to the house, but the fire was extinguished in time to save the house. Abraham 4 and Rachel (Ketcham) Canfield had eleven children: Esther 5 , b. Nov. 6, 1748, d. Jan'y 21, 1816, m. John Carmichael, 1766-7. Nathan 5 , b. Sept. 5, 1750, d , m. Hannah Sutherland.

Crest — a lion's head guardant, couped at the shoulders, or, between two wings expanded, or, fretty az. — mantled gu., doubled arg. Francis Willoughby came to New England in 1638, with his first wife Mary, and a young son Jonathan, and is alluded to as "a gentleman from England." William Willoughby, the father of Francis, was a native of Kent, Eng., and for some- time commander of a vessel, and was an officer in the Royal Navy. He was Colonel in the Regiment of the Tower, and finally Master Attendant for Portsmouth, and Commissioner of the Royal Navy. His remains were interred in St. Thomas' Church, Portsmouth, Eng., where is to be found a mural tablet to his memory, above which his arms are emblazoned — the old Willoughby de Eresby. These arms were used by his son, Francis Willoughby, who came to New England in 1638 78 and settled at Charlestown, Mass., where he was Ensign in the Militia, and a member of the Ancient and Honorable Artillery. In 1640, his wife Mary having died, he returned to England and married Sarah, dau. of John Tailer (or Taylor), of Wrap- ping — ship builder to the Navy and one of the Commissioners of the Navy, by appointment of Parliament. In 1642, on his return to New England, Francis Willoughby was Represent- ative to the General Court, and again in 1649-50. Assistant in 1650-51. In 1651, he again returned to England to settle his father's estate, and remained until 1662. While in England he was made Commissioner of the Royal Navy, and Jan'y 8, 1658-9, he was chosen as member of Parliament for Ports- mouth and "had the unanimous suffrages of the Mayor, Alder- man and Burgesses." The last mention of Capt. Willoughby as Commissioner in England, is in April, 1660. His second wife Sarah Tailer (or Taylor), had died while in England, leaving five children and he married the third time, Mrs. Margaret (Locke) Taylor and brought her and his family to America in April, 1662. In 1665 he was chosen Deputy-Governor of Massachusetts, and served until his death in 1671, and was buried at Charlestown, Mass Deputy-Gov- ernor Willoughby left a large estate valued at ^4812, 18s jd. In his inventory are mentioned : "Mansion House, stable and grounds about the house. " They were situated on Crooked Lane, near the old Market Place (i.e. on Bow street, near the Square). After naming over ware-houses and wharf and 2450 acres of land, "in money and plate 600 ounces," various pieces of furniture are mentioned, indicating a handsome establish- ment. One of his descendants, Mrs. B. A. Hayes, of Toledo, Ohio, possesses a table cloth embroidered by Queen Elizabeth of England, while she was Princess and confined in the Tower of London. It was given by the Princess Elizabeth to her cousin, Margaret Willoughby (then her maid of honor, after- ward Lady Arundel of Wardour), and handed down by her brother, Sir Francis Willoughby, Knight of Wollaton, through his daughter Bridget, who married her cousin, Sir Percival Willoughby, of Bore Place, and cousin to Col. William Willoughby. The ancestor of the Willoughby's in Virginia, was a Col. Thomas Willoughby, Councilor, a cousin of Deputy-Governor 79 Francis Willoughby. Sir Digby Wentworth, Bayard, 9th Baron Middleton, now represents the united houses of de Eresby and Wollaton Willoughbys in England. (See "Family Histories and Genealogies," by Edward Elbridge Salisbury and Evelyn MacCurdy Salisbury, New York State Library,) where a chart of the Willoughby family may be found, from which I have only taken our direct line of ancestors. Sir William 1 de Willoughby, Kn't, died 1306; descended from John de Wilegby (or Willoughby), a Norman Knight, who had the Lordship of Willoughby, Co. Lincoln, by gift of William the Conqueror — married Alice, dau. and co-heiress of John de Beke, Baron de Eresby, who was of the sixth genera- tion from Walter de Bee, a Norman, created Lord de Eresby, by William the Conqueror.

His name occurs in the Calendar of Taunton Manor Rolls in 145S, '63, '73, '79. The name of William Trott, his son, occurs in these same calendars for the years 1 503-4-10. Richard, the son of William, was also mentioned in Staplegrove, 15 10, Poundiford 1534 and Otterford 1527-1540 and died in 1 57 1 . He m. Joanna .... Robert, son of Richard, was baptized in the hamlet of Trendle, now Trull, a parish of Pitminster, where he was buried Feb. 16, 1599. He m. Honora who was buried Sept. 8i 17, 1627, at Pitminster, Eng. His son Richard, was baptized Aug. 28, 1584 in Pitminster, Somerset, Eng. He emigrated to New England about 1637, and with Matthias Treat, who was probably a relative, founded the Treat family in America. The name on records here was spelled variously, Trott, Tratt, Trett, Treat, etc. Indeed Richart Treat, the American ancestor, was bap- tized under the name of Trott, married by the name of Trett and buried with the name of Treat. Richard Treat was always designated in the early Colonial records by the title of Mr. or Master. He was a gentleman of high character, and was among the first planters of Wethersfield, Conn., as early as 1640. In 1642 he was appointed by the General Court in con- nection with Gov. Wyllys and others to superintend building a ship, and to collect revenue for that object. Richard Treat in 1654 was Ensign for the train band of Wethersfield, Conn., was Deputy for ten years. In 1644 he was chosen one of a committee for maintaining scholars at the college in Cam- bridge, Mass. He was elected Magistrate eight times from 1658-1665, and was one of the Palantees mentioned in the Connecticut charter of 1662. In 1664 he was a member of Gov, Winthrop's council. He married in Pitminster, England, April 27, 1615, Alice Gaylard, baptized May 10, 1594 in Pitminster, Eng., died in Wethersfield, Conn., probably after 1670, as she survived her husband. She was a daughter of Hugh Gaylard, who was buried Oct. 21, 16 14 in Pitminster, and whose will is recorded in the Taunton Probate Court in 16 14. Richard Treat died in Wethersfield, Conn., 1669-1670. Richard and Alice (Gaylard) Treat had ten children, born and baptized in Pitminster, Eng. Of these, the third, Sarah Treat, was baptized Dec. 3, 1620 and married about 1644, Matthew Campfield (or Canfield) and died in Newark, N. J. One of her brothers, Robert Treat, was Governor of Connecticut and his name occupies a large space in the Memorial Bridge at Milford, Conn. (See "The Treat Family," by John Harvey Treat, A. M., 1893, t° which I am greatly indebted for much of the above). John* Trott m. Williams Trott m. Richard^ Trott m. Joanna 82 Robert 4 Trott m. Honora Richard 5 Treat m.

Arms: Azure on a chevron, ar. between three lions, pas- sant, guardant, as many crosses forme, sa. Crest: A vigilant owl. Motto: Possunt quia posse videntur. "An old and rare book published in the early days of type setting, giving the origin and signification of all the family names in England, says, that a Saxon chief fond of the chase and being a daring hunter, was called Fowler. This Fowler, accompanied by a numerous band of retainers and followers, went to England about a hundred years before the destruction of the Heptarchy and the union of all the kingdoms of England into one, under Egbert, and settled in Sussex." Prior to the reign of Richard I genealogical investigation throws no light on the pedigree of the Fowlers. So Sir Rychard Fowlere or le Fowlere, of Foxley, County Bucks, time of Coeur de Lion, 1189-90, was the progenitor of the family. He held large estates in that county and accompanied King Richard to the Holy Land. The arms he bore were azure on a chevron, argent, between three lions passant, gardant, as many crosses forme sa. Crest, a hand holding a falcon's lure. During the war he maintained there a body of British bowmen, all his own tenants. At the seige of Aeon (or Acre) he defeated, by his extraordinary vigilance, a nocturnal attempt of the infidel to surprise the Christian camp; for these services he was Knighted by his royal master on the field of battle, and ordered thereafter to wear a new crest, viz. : the vigilant owl. See also Kimber, Vol. Ill, p. 11- 12. The two principal seats where the Fowlers lived in Buckinghamshire in the reigns of Queen Elizabeth, James I and Charles I, were Buckingham- town and vicinity and Aylesbury, and as the latter place may be regarded as the center from which emigrated the original set- 83 tiers of Milford, Conn., it is supposed that "Mr." William Fowler, the first New England ancestor, came from that section. In Neals "History of the Puritans," chapter VIII, "William Fowler" is mentioned as a prisoner in Bridewell with other Puritans, in the year 1592. From many facts, one being, he was called an old man in 1639, it * s thought that the prisoner was the William Fowler who came to this country with Rev. John Davenport, Gov. Eaton, Rev. Peter Prudden and "others of good character and fortune," landing in Boston June 26, 1637. He went first to New Haven, Conn., but in the spring of 1639 was one of the settlers of Milford; was the first named of the trustees, and the only one bearing the honorable prefix of "Mr." At the first meeting of the Milford Company he was chosen one of the "Judges." The Church was organized in 1639 and he was elected one of the "seven pillars." He was also elected Chief Magistrate in 1643, and reappointed yearly to 1654. The deed of Milford was given to William Fowler, Edmund Tapp and two others, in trust for the body of planters. In the Memorial Stone Bridge at Milford, a buttress extends from the tower towards the north, ending in a seat made from the first mill stone used in the colony, on which is inscribed "Mr. William Fowler, Obit 1660. The founder of this the first Mill in the Colony in 1639, wherein he used this stone." From the time of his owning the mill, nine generations of Fowlers have successfully conducted its operations and recently (in 1889) the eighth William Fowler has completed the fifth mill on the precise spot. The present proprietor's grand- son is the tenth William Fowler in a direct line. That "Mr." William Fowler was among those of the first settlers who had received a classical education in his native country, is presumed from manuscripts in the possession of Rev. Erastus Scranton, settled at North Milford in the early part of the last century, which state that he (William Fowler) had various valuable classical books which were lent to sundry individuals by him. William Fowler died January 25, 1660. The original seven acres allotted to William Fowler for a homestead are still in possession of the Fowler family. In the summer of 1899 the compiler of these records had the pleasure of visiting all these places of interest in Milford 84 and learning many interesting- facts through the kindness and courtesy of Mrs. George M. Gunn, (Harriet C. Fowler) dau. of the late Judge John W. Fowler, author of "An Historical Sketch and Genealogical Record of the Fowlers of Milford, Ct. " from which much of the foregoing has been gleaned. Mr. William Fowler's will was presented by his son, William, to the General Court of the Colony, 1661, but was not recorded, and being unfortunately lost, we are without a guide as to all of his family. Capt. William- Fowler, son of William Fowler the " Mag- istrate," did not go to Milford with his father, but remained at New Haven where he took the oath of fidelity, 1644, and was admitted to the General Court in 1645. At East Haven "Fow- ler's Cove" and "Fowler's Creek," now so called, were named from him. He was chosen successively Sergeant, Lieutenant in 1666, and Captain, in 1673, of the Town Company, and is mentioned in the Colonial Records of Hartford and New Haven as one to raise troops as a defense against a threatened incursion of the Dutch. He was a member of the House of Deputies from 1673 to 1680 inclusive, from Milford. Like his father, he owned a mill, about two miles from New Haven, on the site of the establishment for the manufacture of firearms, erected by Eli Whitney. Capt. William Fowler married first as early as 1645 Mary Tapp, dau. of Edmund and Ann Tapp (sister of Jane Tapp, wife of Governor Treat) by whom were born to him all his children. He married second, Nov. 1, 1670 at Milford, widow Elizabeth (Alsop) Baldwin. He removed from New Haven to Milford about the time of his father's death 1660, inheriting his father's possessions there, and died there in 1682. His will was probated in New Haven June 13, 1683. He gave one-half mill property to " his eldest son, John, to encourage him to tend the mill built by his father." From this John Fowler is descended the late Judge John W. Fowler of Milford, author of pamphlet on Fowlers of Milford, above referred to. Of his eleven children, the fifth, Mark 3 , was born in New Haven, baptised there Jan'y 17, 1655-56; was a proprietor of that town in 1685 where he died in 1686, leaving a widow Mary (who died July 1688) and three children (John 4 , Thomas 4 , Mary 4 ); will probated 1687 and in 1702 their father's property was divided among these children, about which time they settled in Lebanon, Ct. 35 John Fowler, eldest of the three children, born in New ■Haven March i, 16S0-1, baptised May 29, i68r, was one of the first settlers of Lebanon, Ct. , going there when twenty-one, and purchasing land of John Mason. Five generations of Fowlers have lived on the spot, and in 1857 it was owned by Gen. Amos Fowler, the first house having been built by John about 1702. John Fowler married Sarah Abbe, dau. of Samuel Abbe of Lebanon, about 1707. "Mr. Fowler died May 8, 1751 in the 73d year of his age having served God and his generation faithfully, being very skil- ful and successful in throat distemper." His will is dated April 5, 1743 and probated 1 75 1. His widow Sarah (Abbe) Fowler's will was probated 1774 in which year she died, aged 88. Of John Fowler's five children, Adijah was born at Leba- non, June 10, 1717 and married Abigail Bigelow dau. of Sergt. Isaac Bigelow of Colchester, Ct., Dec. iS, 1745. Capt. Dijah Fowler was in the Revolutionary War. His name was on "list of men who marched from Connecticut towns for the Relief of Boston in the Lexington Alarm, April, 1775." (See "Record of Connecticut men in the War of the Revolution.") Capt. Fowler was a man much in public life and held in high estimation for his social and generous nature and strictly moral character. He died Dec 14, 1804 in his 88th year. His wife, born April 13, 1723, dec'd June 9, 1796. Of their seven children, Mark was born May 9, 1756, mar- ried Sept. 11, 1777, Miriam (Sterling) Warner (b. May 8, 1755, dau. of John and Jane (Ransom) Sterling of Lyme, Conn.) widow of Reuben Warner, and removed from Lebanon, Conn, to Litchfield, Herkimer Co., N. Y. then the far west, and with his numerous family of sons, were the pioneers in clearing the forests. He died there April 27, 181 3, his widow surviving him until Jan'y, 1843. Mark Fowler fought in the Revolution in Capt. Daniel Throop's Company of Militia Horse of Lebanon, Ct., "Oct. 5, 1779, a return of men detatched from the Second Regiment of Light Horse in the State of Conneticut, to serve in the Con- tinental Army until the 15th of Jan'y next, etc." (See "Records of Conneticut men in War of Revolution").
