Columns for special counts, not to be included in the aggregate total. Census takers were asked to use double lines, red ink or some other method of distinguishing these columns so that double counting would not occur. For example, the count of free white males between 16 and 18 was a special count, because these individuals were also supposed to be tabulated in the column for free white males of age 16 and under 26. The other special counts were foreigners not naturalized, persons engaged in agriculture, persons engaged in commerce, and persons engaged in manufacture.

Count each individual in only one of the occupational columns. census taker had to judge which one the individual was primarily engaged in

"Fairweather Purchase"

The old deeds refer frequently to the Fairweather purchase, but as there is no deed on record in Kent of this property a search was made through the old colonial records where it was found that in 1707 there was a large tract of land granted to Hon. Nathaniel Gold, Peter Burr and several others of Fairfleld for a township in what is now the southern portion of Kent and the northern portion of New Milford, and that they in turn sold a part or all of it to Robert Silliman, Richard Hubbell and Benjamin Fairweather of Fairfleld." That contained some 3,800 acres and was six miles in length from east to west and three hundred rods wide. When the owner died the large tract was divided between his heirs.

Amos
Parent / Name
Speculations

Amos may have been a farmer, shoemaker (his eldest known son, Alvin, was a shoemaker) or in a profession related to leather.Chatham, NY reported as birthplace is suspicious. May be Chatham, CT (Alvords) or wrong Northrop line. Names WITH connections - Amos, BurrNames with possible connections - Gerrit, George, Fenn, Elmore, Winthrop, Blaine, Anzonetta /Antoinetta

A number of Fenns have connections to Joseph Line - Second Congregational Church Milford "Plymouth" Amos had 2 known children but possibly more.Amos might have even spent some time in Berkshire County, MA.

It is interesting to observe on the gravestones that widows were called relicts and wives who predeceased their husbands are called consorts.

Familiesof Ancient New Haven '^ Compiled by Donald Lines Jacobus
NOMENCLATURE The spelling of surnames did not become standardized until a com- paratively recent date. Some spellings prior to 1800 are due merely to the ignorance of the clerks or notaries who wrote the names. Others are variations which the possessors of the name themselves adopted, and which became fixed in certain branches of the family. Thus, Ailing and Allen, Cole and Cowles, Humphreville and Umberfield, are variants of the same name. Since few of these variations became permanently fixed prior to 1800, the method of the present compilation is to disregard them and to use throughout the spelling which prevailed in the early genera-' tions. In the Eighteenth Century, diminutives were regularly employed in place of the commoner Christian names; as Polly for Mary, Dolly for Dor- othy, Patty for Martha, or Sukey for Susan. As a rule, such form.s were used interchangeably. A woman might be christened Bede in infancy, bnt lengthen it to Obedience later in life; or a man who was christened Azariah might marry, sign deeds, and die, all under the name of Riah. Such carelessness was prevalent that the genealogist cannot assert that this or that was the proper form of the name in any individual case. In the present compilation, no attempt is made to distinguish between varia- tions of Christian names. Even such names as Mehitabel and Mabel, Ellen and Helena, or Alice and Elsa, were frequently used interchangeably.

* Granville, NY is borderd to the East by Vermont (Rutland County). This border area between Vermont and New York was for a long time not clearly under control of either state. Arrivals from New England settled here hoping to gain the benefits of New England in areas such as land ownership and voting rights. Early settlers arrived before 1770, but the state line was not established until 1790, leaving settlers in this town within New York State.

Cazenovia is near the middle of New York State. The Town of Cazenovia was established in 1793 by the Towns of Whitestown, New York and Paris, New York (both in Oneida County, New York) before the creation of Madison County. Subsequently, other towns in the county were formed from partitions of its territory. Cazenovia was part of a region called "The Gore," based on a surveying error. It was founded by John Lincklaen, an agent of the Holland Land Company, and was named after Theophilus Cazenove, Lincklaen's boss.

SE of Cleveland Seth Abiel, “Reunion of Bartholomews at Vienna, Ohio” Some one hundred and thirty Bartholomews of the “Reserve” gathered by invitation at the residence of Rilman Bartholomew, in Vienna, Sept. 13, 1883. The day was fine, the grounds pleasant and the table and other arrangements ample. The older members, especially Abiel and Levi Bartholomew (prob Levi Moss II) of Vienna, entertained those assembled with reminiscences of the early Ohio members and the hardships they endured. Acquaintance and sociability were most heartily cultivated and it was resolved to meet again in the same place. (From George Wells Bartholomew, comp., Record of the Bartholomew Family: Historical, Genealogical and Biographical [Austin, Texas: By the compiler, 1885], 689.)

History of New Haven County

Southwest Wallingford might have included part of Hamden, North Haven or even Bethany.

What we know about the Ives

John Ives 1644-~ 1681 He and his brother Joseph settled Walling\ford.
John was a farmer. His farm was called North Farms. He died leaving 5 children, one a baby. His wife remarried Joseph Benham. He was a signer of the Wallingford Agreement. Source: John was baptized Dec. 29, 1644 in the New Haven Colony. When he was about 23 (1667), the New HAven colonists voted to create a new village on the East River, and their request was granted by the "General Courte" at HArtford. On Jan. 31, 1668, 39 colonists, including John and his brother Joseph Ives, signed a covenant to settle in the new village by "next May." The new village was Wallingford. John Ives and Hannah Merriman were married on Nov. 12, 1668. (Hannah was born May 16, 1651 in New Haven). They left New HAven and settled in Wallingford at "North FArms". John was a farmer. In the new village, each planter was required to help build the community. Decisions were made by majority vote, with guidance from the Bible and the Church. The first homes built were log cabins with thatched roofs, and later frame buildings of white oak. John died about 1682 (age 38), leaving 5 children, the youngest of whom was only a baby. Hannah remarried to Joseph Benham in the same year. More About JOHN IVES: Burial: Center Street Cemetary, Wallingford, Ct.

Elam and Sarah Ives

Here are the pictures of Elam and Sarah Hitchcock Ives and their house in Mt Carmel, CT (a section of Hamden). It was taken around 1840 when they had been married nearly 50 years. Thanks to Jim for this photo and several others which will appear soon. See the post, Ivesville and Ives Corner, Connecticut - Elam Ives founder, for more on Elam.

I heard from David Nelson that one of his daughters was Bede or Beda Ives, born Dec. 31, 1793; died May 17, 1818. She married David Bradley after 1810, and had at least two children before her death in 1818. She was one of 11 children that included another Elam and a William Ives. He found information on Elam Ives and his children from information taken from the DAR application of his granddaughter Helen Ives Webb, National #73228. Elam served as a volunteer in the defense of New Haven, CT at the time of Tryon's invasion in July 1779. He purchased a four acre lot in 1787 and built a small house (95 Ives Street, Hamden, CT) before his marriage in 1790. See the next two posts for pictures of his house.

The problem of how to preserve meats, fruits, and like perishable products for any length of time in transportation, without affecting their quality or flavor, had been practically unsolved until 1868, when William Davis, of Detroit, built the first successful refrigerator car, and until I869, tried in vain to induce capitalists to take hold of the invention. Finally Mr. Hammond had a car fitted up expressly for carrying dressed beef to the eastern markets. The experimental trip was made in May, I869, from Detroit to Boston, and was a complete success. Mr. Hammond, with characteristic boldness aud far-seeing business sagacity, soon after purchased the right to the exclusive use of the invention, and with Caleb Ives formed the dressed beef transportation company of Hammond, Ives & Co., which a few years after was changed to the firm name of George H. Hammond & Co. They commenced with one car, and the second year eleven were required; the third they used twenty-one, the number yearly increasing until, at the time of Mr. Hammond's death, eight hundred cars were in constant use in their fresh meat trade with the Atlantic coast, and they sent three ship-loads weekly to transAtlantic ports. They established slaughter houses at Hammond, Indiana, and Omaha, Nebraska, actually founding and building the first named city, which now has a large population and all the usual accompaniments of a thriving city. At this immense establishment, fifteen hundred to two thousand head of cattle are killed each day, the business transacted reaching the sum of $I2,000,000 to $ 5.ooo0,000 annually. The creation of this business was almost entirely due to the enterprise and sagac

From files Nevada Historical Society
BUTLER IVES
Born January 31st, 1830 Sheffield, Berkshire County, Massachusetts, the youngest of ten children; died December, 1872
near Vallejo, California; buried Elmwood Cemetery, Detroit, Michigan.
Educated University of Michigan. Parents; Butler Ives and Olive Hall Morse. His ancestors, John Moss (afterwards changed to
Morse) and William Ives were among Governor Eaton's party who first settled New Haven April, 1638.
His greatest work consisted of pioneer engineering, surveying and locating the line of the Union Pacific and Central Pacific
between San Francisco and Salt Lake City, working under Leland Stanford and Samuel S. Montague, chief engineer. The
papers -- seventy in number -- relating to this work have been sent to the Leland Stanford University. His contract for the
locating and surveying of the boundary line between the Territory of Nevada and the State of California -- running south
and southeasterly from Oregon -- will be sent to the Historical Society of the State of Nevada. The Ives papers in general,
running back to 1754, together with the old family bible are deposited for safekeeping with the Clarence Burton Historical

His brother, Caleb Ives, went west on the death of Butler, December, 1872, and returned with his effects and papers. The
latter were given to Marvin A. Ives by his father, Caleb, in his last days saying,
I want you to have Butler's papers. He was a noble man.
The writer met about twelve years ago near Ann Arbor, Michigan an old companion, Michel J. Noyes, who had not seen
Butler Ives for fifty years. His first words when I met him were,
He was the finest man I have ever known.

First Baptist Church of Wallingford (1870)

July 31st, 2011 Posted in Churches, Romanesque Revival, Wallingford

The Baptist church in Wallingford begun as a branch of the Waterford Baptist church in 1731 and was organized as the Third Baptist Church in Connecticut in 1735 and then the First Baptist Church of Wallingford in 1786. The church used a dwelling house in Meriden (then a part of Wallingford) as a house of worship starting in 1801. After Meriden became a separate town, the Wallingford members established their own church in Wallingford and built a meeting house in 1821. After the church burned down in 1869, the current churchwas constructed and dedicated in 1870. Located at 114 North Main Street, it is a brick building in the Romanesque Revival style.

1800 census New Haven,Wallingford there is a Asahel Byington 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 3 0 1
1810 census Wallingford,New Haven,Conn
Asahel's place and date of birth are not known,but given the probability that he was,if not older, at least near the age of his wife Mary who having died at age 61 in 1804, was clearly born in about 1743, it seems likely that he was older than his brother,Jeheil, and was his parents'oldest surviving child. Since his father did not move to Wallingford from Guilford until well after 1750, it would also seem likely that he was born there rather than at either North Branford where his father was born and grew up on his parents farm,or Wallingford.
From various deeds, iy is clear that Asahel could read and write as could his wife Mary who was the daughter of his fathers neighbors,Abel and Mary [Merwin] Thompson. The Thompson family was well established and numerous,and had held various town offices in Wallingford. They were surely better known than thye Byingtons. But it would seem likely that the Thompson's must have approved of their daughter Mary's marriage to Asahel in June of 1769, as Abel Thompson,on 22 December 1772,transferred ownership of a town lot of about a acre or more of land next door to his own property to his daughter and son-in-law,"for divers causes & consideration but Especially for Love and Good Will I have for my children, Asahel Byington and his wife Mary Byington." Of course,it may just be that Abel was sufficiently grateful that someone had finally married his 26 year old daughter, that he felt generous,but then if that were the case he would have probably been generous three years earlier when the couple actually married.
Eventually,Asahel and Mary built a dwelling and a blacksmith's shop on their land, from which it is reasonable to assume that he made his living as a blacksmith. Mary seems to have produced a large family of a least nine children,only of which was a boy,and there is no record of his existance except for his birth. Possibly like several of his sisters, he died young.Although Asahel never performed military service or held town office, he was sworn freeman in April 1775. While his brother Jehiel had been sworn as a freeman in 1774,there is no record of his father ever having been.
On 26 March 1885, Asahel,Mary,and Abel, for thirty pounds, sold a tract of land in Wallingford that they owned jointly, which would imply that Asahel and his father-in-law trusted each other sufficiently to own property jointly.Seven years later ,on 30 October 1792,Ashel and Mary sold for fourteen pounds, a certain piece of land, near "a place called Pond Hill" to her brother Abel Thompson Jr. On the same day, they bought, "forty-nine rods of ground in said Wallingford on the east side of "Town Street"from Stephen Hall of Wallingford for twelve pounds. Then on 24 June 1799, they sold another parcel of "two acres one hundred and thirty one and a half rods [and]Nine roda atthe North and Eight rods wide at the south," for $10.50,to Daniel Alling of Wallingford. Two years later on 6 feb 1801,Asahel sold to Capt.Isaac Kirtland,for $350, "a dweling house,Blacksmith's shop .and one third of an acre of land..on the east side of the town street about one fourth part of a mile below the meeting house,being the same now in my possession." Apparently,Asahel had built his house and blacksmith;s shop on the plot of land that he had bought nine years before fron Stephen Hall, and now either decided to retire or was compelled to for reasons of health,however he was soon back in buisness as by December 1805, he "occupied" one third of an acre with a dwelling house a blacksmith's shop and other buildings that his daughter,Sarah,Esther,Lowly,Sylvia,and Aurilla quit claimed to "their honored father" in return for $125 after the death of their mother Mary in June 1804.
Asahel is listed in the 1790 federal census for Wallingford, as Asahel "Bisinton" on the same page as his father Robert and brother Jehiel and his household is enumerated as having living in it ,two males over 16 [Asahel and William Bowen],one male under 16 [Samuel], and two females [Mary and Sylvia]. Ten years later in the 1800 federal census, he is listed again on the same page as his brother Jehiel, this time with one child under 10 [a grandson??], one male over 45 [Asahel],one female under 10 ][a grandaughter],three females 16 to 26 [Sarah,Esther,and ??], and one female over 45 [Mary]. In January 1809 Asahel's name appears in a notice in Connecticut Herald that a letter for him was being held at the Wallingford post office. Then in 1810 census,enumerated were one male under 10 [a grandson].one male 45 and over [Asahel]. and one female over 45 [a sister or a new unrecorded wife]
As Asahel was no longer listed in federal census after 1810, it isikely that he died although there is no record of his death or of the disposition of his estate.

Some rootsweb listings show some Halls of Wallingford as HULLS.

and I found mention of "Cornelius Hull" in Wallingford -- YES, the same name as found in Hull's Farm, Fairfield. Here is one listing indicating one of the Corneliuses as moving to Wallingford from Fairfield and then later returns to die in Fairfield. The birth of son, Ebenezer indicates the family was in Wallingford in about 1710, was brought to Fairfield for christening and at least he returned to Wallingford.

An Historic Record and Pictorial Description of the Town of Meriden

Still hard to tell whether the Hulls Farm - Wallingford connection of 1800 is accurate.

We know Charles became a Baptist, but others moved from Congregational church due to the Dana Controvery -- and old light -new light dispute. It spurred many to change to some other church.

As early as 1700 there were mining efforts in Merien as well as Wallingford which may have spurred some settlement and contributed to the same individuals being found in other mining locations (NW CT).

I don't have my notes right now, but if I remember right, most of this information came from the Bartholomew book. Other than a little of the later info. provided by family. The Rev.

And my line continues through one of their daughters Emily Maransa who married Dennis Salathia Ellis and moved from WI to WA state with her son, after Dennis passed away.

Below is some information sent to me by a felow researcher:

I was also able to locate info on Maransa Stanford who is the mother of Emory M. She died in LaCrosse Co. in 1891 but is buried in Arcadia, Trempealeau Co. Her obit in The Leader, the newspaper in Arcadia, Thursday, October 1, 1891, page 3, Reel P73-3971 states: The remains of Mrs. Standford (spelled with a D) formerly of this place, arrived from LaCrosse Saturday and were interred in the village cemetery beside the remains of her husband. Mrs. Standford had reached the advanced age of nearly 80 years when her death occurred last Thursday. Rev. E.M. Standford and wife of LaCrosse were in attendance at the funeral.

From The Morning Chronicle, LaCrosse, WI, Sept. 26, 1891 page 3

In 1793, (When Rache Ives was probably ~ 13.) after a decade during which the house at 1211 Barnes Road was occupied by other families, another of Joseph's sons, John Webb Blakeslee (1769-1825), bought it back, moved in with his wife, and lived here until his death 32 years later. John W. Blakeslee was a man of modest means; in 1793, the small farm centered around this house was valued at only $173.64, barely half that of his brother, Joseph Blakeslee, Jr., who lived in the new (1793) house, built on the old homestead. John W. Blakeslee appears to have been a typical Connecticut farmer of modest station. At the time of his death in 1825, his possessions included a team of oxen, a horse, 15 sheep, two pigs, and four head of cattle, indicative of the small-scale, generalized subsistence farming typical of that period (Wallingford Probate Court, Estate of John W. Blakeslee, 1825, quoted by Clouette, p. 13). His land included 59 1/2 acres surrounding his home lot; two other parcels, one of 14 acres and one of 18 acres, probably located nearby but not contiguous; and a one-acre wood lot. Except for several dozen brooms that he had probably made for sale and barrels of cider, vinegar, and apple brandy, the products of his farm appear to have been intended for his own family's consumption or local exchange. The most valuable single component of John W. Blakeslee's estate, which totaled $3,901.49, was the sawmill located on the small pond to the east. Known in the 18th century as the Ezekiel Hall mill (Wallingford Land Records, vol. 30, p, 421), the mill around 1800 was a joint venture among John, his brother, Joseph Blakeslee, Jr., and several other area farmers; John W, Blakeslee eventually bought out the other partners. Along with his cider mill, the sawmill enabled Blakeslee to supplement his limited earnings as a farmer. Still, other than a single silk vest inventoried by his estate, his lifestyle appears to have included virtually no luxury items or evidence of exceptional consumption.
John W. Blakeslee and his wife Ruth Ives were Baptists, dissenting from the Congregationalist religion (and probably the staunch Federalist politics) of his father, Joseph Blakeslee, Sr. According to a turn-of-the-century biography, They were a family of singers, the father [John W. Blakeslee] a leader in the church choir, and had a good choir in their nine children who grew to maturity (Commemorative Biogsiapnica£ Record o{$ New Haven County, Connecticut, p. 318, quoted by Clouette, p. 5). Following the death of John W. Blakeslee in 1825, the house (along with a barn, "old barn," "cowhouse," horse shed, and cider mill) passed into the possession of his son, Silas Blakeslee (1808-1893), who also bought the property surrounding the larger house in 1852 from S. Patrick or Paddoc. For the rest of the 19th century and most of the 20th, the property was operated as one large farm of approximately 250 acres, with two dwelling houses. The sawmill also continued as Blakeslee property well into the 19th century. The farm was owned from 1900 to 1935 by the Barnes family and from 1935 to 1963 by the Killam family. Research Park Inc. bought it in 1963 and owned it until 1980, when it was bought by Medway Associates. The state assumed control in 1991. In 1996 title passed to the Wallingford Historic Preservation Trust. The completeness of information about the house and family is unusual. The unbroken chain of title, seldom found with this degree of authenticity, makes the construction date clear beyond doubt. Architecture The setting of the Joseph Blakeslee House was established by a colonial neighborhood of similar dwellings and farms. The neighborhood of the Blakeslee property, known as North Farms or School District Number A in the middle 19th century, remained a rural agricultural area until the last half of the 20th century, source

The Joseph Blakeslee House

This modest house at Kilshire Farms is unique in that it offers archaeological as well as architectural insights into life on an eighteenth century farm.

Located on a three-acre site, the Blakeslee House will become the centerpiece for a multi-building restoration depicting life during the early 1800's. The Muddy River Schoolhouse will be rebuilt here, and a Nature Trail will be added to further the educational opportunities that can be offered.

It is likely that Rachel would have spent time around this hearth with her sister and brother-in-law.

Elnathan IVES b: 21 DEC 1748 Wallingford, New Haven Co., Connecticut m. 21 APR 1774 in Congregational Church, Plymouth, CT) so the Plymouth Blakelees were clearly still in touch with Wallingford even though their parents had moved up to Plymouth when it was a young and probably isolated community.
		Elnathan Ives (Ephraim IVES5, Joseph IVES Deacon4, John IVES3, William IVES2, John IVES1) chr. 18 Dec 1748 Cheshire Cong. Church, New Haven, CT d. 14 Dec 1841 Plymouth,CT. Bur.

Cemetery located at Park St., Plymouth, Litchfield Co., Ct. off Rte 6., next to the 1st Congregational Church build in 1739. Burial: Old Burying Ground Plymouth Elnathan was a second cousin to Charles Ives(Sarah Butler) who was Rachel and Olive Ives' father. Elnathan and Olive Blakeslee Ives farmed in Plymouth and also in New Lebanon, Columbia County NY (from Messrs. Ives of Bridgeport: the saga of America's gratest toymakers googlebooks)
So even though there is no close family relationship of Blakeslees to Blakeslees, the Plymouth Blakeslees have interaction with Wallingford (Cheshire/North Haven) and have multiple Ives connections. It is also interesting that Elnathan had a New Lebanon connection as well as his Plymouth home.

"CENSUS NEIGHBORS"

I've looked at the census records for myAmos to identify census neighbors who might be connected. AJNorthrup genealogy identifies Kent Warren and Washington as locations for MyAmos. Again, some changes in census location may actually be a change in boundary. The names of locations have changed as well.

1790	prob too young OR Newtown w/parents who is Washington Amos?
1800	Kent
1810	MIA OR New Milford OR w/ family OR Vermont?? ???
1820	Kent
1830	Kent
1840	Warren
1850	Washington
1855	dies Washington, buried, Warren

The Town of Washington encompasses the following Villages:
Washington Depot
Washington (or Washington Green) -- the Old Judea
New Preston -- located on the Aspetuck River.
Marbledale (or Marble Dale) and
Woodville by Mount Tom

1790 Census - MyAmos (if 1778 ~ 12, if 1774 ~ 16, if 1784 ~ 6)

I include this only for comparison with a later references

Amos 1790 Washington, CT
MyAmos is probably too young to be this Amos.

Who is this Amos??? Could be Amos Wellman Northrop (Jonathan line) Although AJN has him Residence: BEF 1801 Fishkill, Dutchess Co., NY 16 kids b. Fishkill 1781-1798. He does not marry until about 1781. Not likely he is Amos' father. Since he was a teacher did he move back and forth with the school season?
Is Amos Wellman Northrop the one listed in the Quaker Hill, NY store ledgers?

1790 Census 12200
1 male 16 or over
2 males under 16
2 females any age

(Elijah 1790 Washington, CT there are a couple of Elijah's that can be confused. Likely he is the son of Samuel1718 & Lydia Thomas1723. b~ 1761 in Washington CT. m. Lucina Easton (Luxina)1764 (d/o Eliphalet Easton and Mary Gould is this Gould connected to Redding Goulds?) Eliphalet dies in Woodbury in 1785 Washington. Elijah D. 1829 in Humphreysville (Seymour), Connecticut Served (American Revolutionary War) Pension Awarded a pension (#s36199). Did Elijah have any connection to mills and manufacturing in Humphreysville? Died in poorhouse. Can't find any direct connection to myAmos. Other Elijahs 1790-1820 in Lee, MA, Lenox, MA in Oneida - no township listed -- NY in 1810. Elijah in Lenox, MA. None in CT 1 male 16 and over(born 1774 or earlier -- prob at least 22 ~ born 1768 or earlier), 2 males under 16, 2 females Both Elijah and Amos are MIA in 1810. There are many usual suspects in Fairfield Vermont 1800 census http://dunhamwilcox.net/vt/fairfield_vt_census.htmthere are 3 unreadable northrops in Danby VT in 1810. Check Ira VT for ages.

don't know where this belongs

For the longest time I thought Amos was "lost" in this census -- perhaps living with another family member, I now think it's possible that the 1810 New Milford Amos is MyAmos. Did Amos move around that much? Maybe. It's also quite possible the borders moved around. See Border-MountTom issues. We see references to Mount Tom associated with the Nathan Terrill of Milford, Job Terrill, Jonathan Meeker of Fairfield and Amos Northrop of Milford Other names in the area - East Greenwich, Merryall. Portions of the area may well have been part of the "Fairweather purchase".

1810 possiblity with Joseph or Castle/Caswell Ives in Kent Joseph

next page for names Thomas may be Thomas Hawley Canfield d/o Samuel Canfield & Mary Ann Hawley he was b. and m. in VT so this is a return to family origins.

1850 Amos Kent age 78 pauper born 1772 is this another Amos?? one in
Washington seems more reliable Then again both could be correct -- if he moved in 1850 during the census times

Peter Skiff

The age is correct for Northrop, Amos 11 OCT 1772 New Milford,Litchfield Co.,Connecticut 21 FEB 1834 New Milford,Litchfield Co.,Connecticut Father: Amos Northrop Mother: Anne Grant Spouse: Hannah Elderkin She is still alive is she with kids??

1860 Washington appears that Amos died before 1860

1870 litchfield too old should be 57 or 8

1870 Warren is the right one age 59

The "family sticks together" speculationIn the absence of more definitive information, I've reviewed possible neighbors in the census (where available). In census lists that are not alphabetical, I speculate name sequence reflects physical order of homes. Below are the names I watched for in the review.

The table lists the results as likely extended family connections. I speculate the earlier data is more likely to be significant. The years are links to images of the census pages.

THE tract now comprising the towns of Kent and Warren was sold at auction at the court house in Windham, in March, 1738. The settlernent commenced the same year.The principal settlers were from Colchester, Fairfield and Norwalk The first minister was the Rev. Cyrus Marsh, ordained in May, 1741.Kent the Moravian church or mission house was standing 30 or 40 years since, near the house of Mr. Raymond, by the Episcopal church. The Moravians left this place about half a century since. The Scatacook tribe, for whose benefit this mission was established, occupied the interval on the west side of the river for about three miles.It may be that this earlier mission set the stage for the Mission School in nearby Cornwall.

It may have encompassed as much as with area of green above -- parts of Plymouth, Washington, Kent and Warren.

Perhaps something more than Ethan Allen’s personal charism made the Brownsons especially responsive to his influence. Allen had joined the Brownson family back in Connecticut; he had married Mary, the daughter of Cornelius Brownson, on June 23, 1762, in Judea parish, Woodbury. The wedding ceremony cost him four shillings. (9)

Between the years 1806 and 1816 several boys had drifted away from the Sandwich Islands as seamen and became temporarily residents of New England ; some of them had begun to acquire an education by private assistance and a few, in 1816, were gathered into a flourishing school at Morris, Conn. Henry Obookiah, one of the most influential, had joined the church in Torringford the previous year, and was preparing to be a missionary to his native land under the direction of the Litchfield North Consociation.

Another possibility is an undocumented son of George Northrop. There is a record of George having an earlier marriage to a "Miss Kimberly" before his marriage to Mary Kimberly perhaps a sister or cousin to Mary. She would have died before 1782. Amos' reported DOB is 1778, so this could be possible. "Miss Kimberly" would likely have a date of birth of about 1760 or earlier. (at least age 18 when he was born). There are several points that would support this option. The name George -- Amos named his son George -- and the fact that he is a shoemaker. Amos' son Alvin worked with leather making shoes harnesses etc. as well as farming. We don't know what Amos did, but he probably farmed and may have been a shoemaker as well.

Some interesting cases involving Northrops -- mention of a John Northrop and Gad Northrop

Redding Ridge's tavern owner, Stephen Betts, certainly fits the profile: Lieutenant Stephen Betts, was a prominent character in the Revolution. He was an active patriot, and was taken prisoner by the British on their march to Danbury in April, 1777. A County Convention was held at his house/tavern on August 10, 1779. Betts was prominent in town politics, serving as Town Selectman during the Revolution, as well as several town committees formed in support of the war.

General Samuel H. Parsons was headquartered at Betts' home/tavern from 1778 to 1781.

ELMER? ELMORE CONNECTION TO George Dutton Northrop

When I told Philip Osofsky that I only knew of two Jewish-owned working farms in Ellsworth: his father’s and the Northrop Farm on Northrup Road that George D. Northrop sold to Morris Schulman in April 1909, Philip said there was one more. That was a very small farm at the foot of Northrup Road, still in Ellsworth, and owned by the Cohen family. 1 He also reported the existence of a few small Jewish-owned family farms that fattened beef cattle and calves. A local Jewish-owned slaughter house provided kosher beef prepared according to ritual law. The soil of the Northwest corner may be thin and rocky Sharon Historical Societymaybe George Dutton?

History of Bethlehem society "east part of the north purchase ?Woodbury?-- not divided among proprietors until 1734 remained woodland Among the first proprietors -- from the first society (woodbury) came Reuben and Josiah Avered1739 allowed to set up minister and school Rev Joseph Bellamy at age 22Fall of 1740 Mr. Whitefield preached through country religion was revived 1750 the "nervous fever prevailed and spread== not enough wel l to take care of the sick and - a mortal distemper carried off 30 persons in the prime of their life.1791 Rev Azel Bakus was ordained and settled in Bethlehem.he also "fitted boys for college" teaching latin and greek . later left to become president of hamilton college (1813).1787 society incorporated into a townBethlem is a small town, ita average length being four and a half miles, and its breadth four miles. Its population by the census of 1850, was 815. It is almost wholly an agricultural town, its soil being fertile, with little waste land. It has, however, one woolen manufactory, two wagon shops, three saw-mills, one grist-mill, three cider distilleries, one blacksmith's shop, one shoemaker's shop, and three mercantile stores. It also has two churches, a town hall, a flourishing lyceum, two ministers and one physician.--------------washingtonThe present town of Washington is made up of territory taken from the towns of Woodbury, New Milford, Kent, and Litchfield, and is about six miles square. It contains two ecclesiastical societies, Judea and New Preston, though not the whole of the latter is included within the town. Judea society embraces all the territory taken from Woodbury and Litchfield, and constitutes about two-thirds of the extent of the town. But a small portion of this is contributed by Litchfield. New Preston embraces all the territory taken from Kent and New Milford. In both of these societies are Episcopal churches, having houses for religious worship. The first settlement in the town was made in Judea society, in 1734, the year this society and Bethlehem were divided among the proprietors of Woodbury. Joseph Hurlbut was the first settler, and the first framed house was built in 1736. The next settlers after Hurlbut were Increase Moseley, Nathaniel Durkee, John Baker, Friend Weeks, Joseph Gillett and Samuel Pitcher. The first sermon preached in the society was by Isaac Baldwin, of Litchfield, who afterward relinquished his profession, and became the first clerk of the county court for Litchfield county

Five years later, the inhabitants had become more numerous, and twenty persons preferred a memorial to the General Assembly, at its May session, 1739, representing that they lived " full eight miles from the Meeting House," and that their wives and children had " to . tarry at home from the worship of God about half of the year," and therefore they pray for " liberty to have preaching six months in the winter," and to be released from paying taxes for a new school-house just built in the first society, and also from parish taxes, that they may build a school-house of their own. The privilege asked for was granted, to continue two years, and they were released from one-half of the parish taxes, and from taxes to build a new meeting-house, provided they were " in no ways Active in the Affair of Building a new Meeting House in said first Society."1 At the October session, 1741, twenty-six individuals petitioned to be incorporated into an ecclesiastical society, and appointed " Our Trusty and well-beloved friend, Friend Weeks, agent and attorney to prosecute our Petition." The petition was signed by Nathaniel Durkee, John Baker, Joseph Gillett, Joseph Chittenden, Elisha Stone, Samuel Pitcher, Jr., James Pitcher, Increase Moseley, Lemuel Baker, Daniel Castle, Samuel Branton, Ezra Terrill, Jr., Ebenezer Allen, Zadock Clark, Elijah Hurd, Joseph Hurd, Joseph Hurlbut, Benjamin Ingraham, Jr., Robert Durkee, Samuel Bell, Jonah Titus, Benjamin Ingraham, John Royce, John Hurd, Jr., Jedediah Hurd, Benjamin Hinman.

In 1753, a putrid fever prevailed in this society (Judea), of which twenty or thirty died in six months. In 1776, the dysentery prevailed with great mortality. About thirty persons were swept away by it to the grave.

Mr. Brinsmade's ministrations, from 1774 to 1784. This was a contention concerning the half-way covenant system,

There have been several revivals, 1804, 1821, 1825, 1827, 1831 1748.n October, 1748, eleven persons dwelling in the south-eastern part of Kent, and nine living in the north-eastern part of New Milford, petitioned the General Assembly for liberty to hire a minister six months in the year, on the ground of their living " from seven to ten miles from their places of worship in New Milford and Kent." This request was granted, to continue four years, with exemption from parish rates. Before the end of the four years, in May, 1752, forty- one individuals petitioned for a new ecclesiastical society. Their names were Samuel Averill, Caleb Rude, Samuel Lake, Moses Averill, Henry Davis, Jehiel Murray, Isaac Averill, Joseph Carey, John Guthrie, Daniel Averill, Zebulon Palmer, Jacob Kinne, Samuel Cogswell, Thomas Hodgship, Thos. Morris, Benj. Darling, Samuel Waller, Nathaniel Deuine, Enoch Whjttlesey, Joseph Jons, Stephen Bosworth, Thomas Beeman, John Benedict, Stephen Noble, Gilead Sperry, Elnathan Curtis, John Bostwick, Benajah Bostwick, Matthew Beale, John Cogswell, Zephaniah Branch, Edward Cogswell, Emerson Cogswell, Josiah Cogswell, James Terrill, Joseph Miles, Nathan Hawley, Samuel Cogswell, John Cobb, Benjamin Capuen.At the same session, sixteen persons of East Greenwich, (now Warren,) remonstrated against the incorporation of a new society, stating that their society had lost " thirty-five rateable persons, and £1467 on their list," and that they therefore protest against having any part of their society cut off, as no families can be spared. Kent, at the same time, passed a vote, that this statement was true. New Milford also sent a committee to oppose the application, and it failed. In October, 1753, thirty-nine persons "in the Northern part of New Milford, and the South and South East part of Kent, and a place Called Merry-all," renewed the application for an ecclesiastical society, which was granted, and the society called New Preston, with the following boundaries :" Beginning at the South east corner of New Milford North Purchase, then tunning Southwardly joining upon Woodbury line one mile, from thence running a West line to ye part of the Long Mountain, South West of Capt. Bastwick's farm, then a Northline to the place called the Rockhorse Cobble, and so that course to Merryall line, and then across Merryall to Kent line, and then Running East to the South West corner of James Lake's farm North Easterly to the North West corner of John Henderson's farm, that he now lives on, then running East to East Greenwich line, then running South to y« South West corner of East Greenwich line to Sheppauge river, then running Southwardly upon s<l river to Woodbury Ijne, then running Westwardly on Woodbury line to y« first mentioned bounds," <kc.The first meeting of the society was held at the house of Jacob Kinne, Nov. 23, 1753. The officers chosen were Benajah Bostwick, Clerk, and Samuel "Waller, Stephen Noble and Joseph Gary, Society's Committee. A vote was then passed to " meet at Jacob Kinne's house for 3 months for public AVorship in the winter season," provided they could obtain a minister. John Bostwick, Samuel Waller and Samuel Averill, were appointed a committee to hire a minister for three months. On the first Monday in December following, the society laid a tax of 12rf. on the pound, to hire a minister " for a season." They also voted to build by subscription, " two school-houses for the use of the society, one to be located between Nathaniel Bost- wick's house and Steep Brook, in ye Highway, and the other near Joseph Gary's in the Highway." The following vote also passed :There have been several revivals, which added considerable numbers to the church : thirty in 1780 ; twenty-five in 1804 ; thirteen in 1812 ; eighty in 1816 ; forty-one in 1821; thirteen in 1826 ; thirty- eight in 1827 ; and thirteen in 1829.History of ancient Woodbury, Connecticut By William Cothren

Note: Removed to Greenfield, Connecticut, where he signed in 1736 as "of Greenfield." ( the "Greenfield" of 1736 extended much further than it does today -- into Easton and Weston even part of Redding and Trumbull and perhaps a bit of Newtown.) ,The Northrop genealogy lists children William and Anna, and says "perhaps others"; it also says he probably died in 1736 or 1737, as his children quit-claimed in 1737. Jacobus gives a much more detailed list of the children, including one born as late as 1743.

Why they moved where they movedMilford- perhaps to Ridgefield - perhaps to Plymouth - to Kent -to Warren - to Washington - to Westport * Some of the later moves may have been changes in town lines, rather than moves.*In early years power through voting or property was derived through church membership. Church attendance was mandatory even if the church was hours away through wilderness inclement weather and forbidding terrain.* a community had to seek permission to form a new parish. Sometimes it took decades for permission to be granted. In some cases only winter priveleges were granted. Since taxes were paid to the parish, it is no wonder that substantial opposition to a new parish was rather common.* It was not uncommon for some settlers to have several separate pieces of property in a colony which later ended up in separate towns. A number of towns stated out with dividing ertain areas for home lots and separate areas for farm lots (Newtown is an example).

*Some colonists ended up with additional property in unsettled areas -- especially property in northwestern (mostly Litchfield County) and Durham CT. These properties may have been granted in lieu of payment for military service or for supplying provisions for defense.

WestburyA book listing the graves in "The Old Burying Ground of Ancient Westbury and Present Watertown" was published by the Sarah Whitman Trumbull Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution in 1938. It has been reprinted by Higginson Book Company, 148 Washington Street, Post Office Box 778, Salem, MA 01970. It is their publication number CT0412, and is available on their website at http://www.higginsonbooks.com/ The book shows the wording on each of the 981 stones, and a map indicates where they are located in the cemetery. The cemetery is located at the intersection of Main Street and French Street in Watertown, CT.As an aid to genealogical research, listed here is the index that is in the book.

Be careful about spelling, some names may not be as you expect. Old Burying Ground Index Back to Genealogy Page"More than 210 years ago the area that is now Watertown belonged to the local Paugasuck Indians. But in 1684, Thomas Judd and 35 other proprietors bought the land from the Indians and Town history began. Around 1700, Obadiah Richards settled in the area of Upper Middlebury Road, and John Scott on Nova Scotia Hill Road.By 1710 they both had left for safer places. In 1729 a family named Garnsey settled in the section now called Guernseytown. Built in 1735, the Belden saltbox house on lower Main Street is the oldest house in Watertown. With 338 inhabitants, the First Ecclesiastical Society of Westbury was formed in 1738, and 42 years later, in 1780, Westbury separated from Waterbury and was named officially Watertown.For 15 years, however, it also included its territory Plymouth and Thomaston. The eastern area was incorporated as Plymouth in 1795. It soon became the crossroads for a number of early highways, and 12 scheduled train trips between Watertown and Waterbury. John Trumbull, poet of the Revolutionary War, who was also a lawyer and judge, was born here in 1750."from http://www.watertownct.org/content/10339/6913/7102/default.aspx----------------------The Old Burying Ground, Watertown, CT

JEFFERSON - was formed from Blenheim, Feb. 12, 1803. A part of Summit was taken off in 1819. It is on the S. line of the co., near the S.W. corner. Its surface is a hilly upland, the principal summits being about 1,000 ft. above the valleys and 2,000 ft. above tide. Mine Hill, in the extreme S. part, is estimated to be 3,200 ft. above tide. A high ridge extending N.E. and S.W. through near the center forms the watershed between Delaware and Mohawk Rivers. Utsyanthia Lake is a small sheet of water on the S. line.* The soil is a gravelly and clayey loam. Jefferson, (p.v.,) near the center, contains 2 churches and 25 houses. Morseville, in the N. part, is a p.o. The first settlements were made, in different parts of the town, in 1794.** The first preacher was Rev. Stephen Fenn.

*This lake is 1,800 ft. above tide. It is often mentioned in old documents, and was an angle in the bounds of Albany co. in colonial times. It is the source of the W. branch of the Delaware.

**Amos and Caleb Northrop settled in the E. part; Samuel and Noah Judson, near Utsyanthia Lake; Henry Shelmerdine and James McKenzie, on West Kil; Stephen Marvin, Erastus Judd, and Aaron Jones, near the village. These were mostly from New England. The first marriage was that of Marvin Judd and Lois Gibbs, Aug. 1800; and the first death, that or Elsie Judd, in June 1799. Heman Hickok taught the first school, in 1799. Canfield Coe kept the first inn, in 1794; and Rodman Lewis the first store in 1800. Stephen Judd built the first sawmill, in 1796; and Heman Hickok the first gristmill, in 1799. Eli Jones built the first tannery, in 1810.

Sources:

Text: The evidence that Asahel Dutton and Sarah Frisbie were the parents of Asahel E. Dutton is circumstantial, but highly pursuasive:
1.Asahel and Sarah's birth dates and marriage date are appropriate for them being the parents of the younger Asahel.
2. The fact that both men had the same name is an obvious clue.
3. The younger Asahel named one of his sons James Frisbie Dutton. James Frisbie was the name of one of Sarah's brothers.
4. James Frisbie shared a claim to land in Bradford county, Pennsylvania with Solomon Moss, who was the father-in-law of the younger Asahel Dutton.
5. The families of both the suspected parents and Asahel E. Dutton all moved to Poultney, VT. Sarah Frisbie and 4 of her brothers moved to the Poultney area when the younger Asahel was a young child. Further, the sister of the elder Asahel, Lois Dutton, moved to Poultney. The first docuement event involving the younger Asahel was his moving from Poultney in 1800.

The beautiful country of Fairfield county so impressed Francis that he immediately began making plans to settle there. Although he went to Branford in 1657 and remained there for a time, he made his settlement in Fairfield county in 1660. He married Ruth Barlow, daughter of John Barlow. He purchased the house and homestead lot of 2 1/2 acres from William Hayden of Greenfield Hills in March, 1666. ... Francis secured large tracts of land in these different allotments, and his land extended from Green Field hill north of the Aspetuch River and to the north of Saugatuck. These parcels were known as the "Bradley Lands". Francis lived for a long time on what was called the "Long Lot" and other parcels of land assigned to him.

In 1790 Captain Charles Pond, a seafaring man, who had commanded the " New Defense" in 1779 as a privateer, and others engaged in trade, shipbuilding and merchandising, as Charles Pond & Co. In 1793 they built the wharf on Gulf Neck, where is now the Merwin oyster industry. In 1811 Adam Pond, a son of Captain Charles Pond, and others formed the firm of Pond, Fowler & Co., and continued in trade until 1823. He was a successful foreign trader, and was well known among the shippers of New York. Pond, Baldwin & Co. were also in trade until 1814, when the firm was dissolved. Later came Miles, Strong & Miles, who were largely engaged in the shipping trade until the failure of the firm in 1821, since which time there has been but little foreign trade with Milford. Ships were built at Milford as early as 1690, by Bethuel Langstaff, who that year built a 150-ton brig for Alexander Bryan. In 1695 he built another vessel for Boston parties. The " Sea Flower," built for Richard Bryan, was launched in 1717, and from that time, for a little more than one hundred years ship- building was one of the leading industries of the town. Nearly every * Lambert. HISTORY OF NEW HAVEN COUNTY. 229 trader built his own vessels, and several yards were maintained at the village. A few small vessels were also built at Wheeler's Farm, on the Housatonic. About 1760 Eli Gunn came to Milford and had a ship yard near his residence. In later times the principal ship yard was on the east side of the harbor, below Fowler's mill. Another yard was on the west side, between Dock lane and Wharf street. Among the master builders were Isaac Jones, called " Boss " Jones, and "Boss" John Rhodes. As ship carpenters there were, among others, John Hepburn, William Tibbals, Newton Northrup, Nathan Bristol, John Bump, Samuel Greene, John Bassett, John Rood, Caleb Northrup, Isaac Bristol, Samuel B. Gunn and Asa Gunn. Other ship builders were William Durand, David and William Atwater, Abraham Tomlinson and Farrand Clark. Captain Noah Kelsey, who had a shop near the Episcopal church, made many of the vessel irons used. Two of the last vessels of any size launched were the " Isabella," in 1818, and the " Marcellus," in 1820. This was built for Captain David P. Halsey, but was sold to Captain Nathan Gillett. The builders were W. H. Fowler and D. L. Baldwin. The venerable John W. Fowler says that in the period of Milford's greatest commercial activity, for about thirty years, ending in 1820, the following vessels were owned in Milford and sailed from that port: Ships: " Hesperus," by Pond, Baldwin & Co.; " Garune," by Miles, Strong & Miles; " Chase," "Vaucher," " Hamlet," by Stephen A. and Isaac Treat. Brigs: " Charles," " Susan," " Martha," " Pond," by Pond, Baldwin & Co.; " Calena," " Behurin,"by Tomlinson & Clark; " Wepo- wage," " Milford," by Miles, Strong & Miles; " Friendship," " Thomas," by S. A. & I. Treat; " Patriot," by William Durand. The schooners built or sailing from Milford in the interests of the above were more than a dozen in number, and there was about the same number of sloops. A number of seafaring men dwelt at Milford, and it has been esti- mated that the casualties of such a life caused more than one hundred persons to find their last resting places in the waters of the mighty deep. It should be noted in this connection that an unusual propor- tion of Milford's seamen became the commanders of their vessels, which commends the bravery and the intelligence of this class of citi- zens. Indeed, some of the best people of the town followed the sea, and "at one time nearly every house contained a retired sea captain or the memory of one." Among those who rose to the rank of captain were: Benedict Bull, James Bull, Freeman Bassett, Mix Bradley, Philip Bull, Nehemiah Bristol, Edward Brown, William Coggeshall, Farrand Clark, Freegift Coggeshall, Charles Coggeshall, William Coggeshall, 230 HISTORY OF NEW HAVEN COUNTY.

In the ordinary lines of merchandising, Abraham Tomlinson & Co. were in trade at the beginning of the century, and in 1802 David L. Baldwin was one of their clerks. He became one of Milford's mer- chants, and was in trade until 1854. Contemporary with him latterly were Mark Tibbals, John W. Merwin and A. Clark. Nathan Fenn, a later merchant, was killed by burglars who entered his store. P. S. Bristol and the Cornwalls were merchants of a later period, the latter continuing and having as contemporaries the Fords, Platts, Shepherds and Buckinghams.

THE TOWN OF MIDDLEBURY.
ORGANIZED as a parish in 1791 and incorporated a town in 1807, Middlebury received its name from the fact that it occupies a middle position between Waterbury and Southbury, from which it was mainly formed. On the north is Watertown, and northwest Woodbury, in Litchfield county; south and southeast are Oxford and Naugatuck. The town is small, being less than five miles square, with greater length north and south. The surface is elevated and broken by high hills, the chief ones being Mount Fair, on the east, Sandy Hill, on the south, and Breakneck in the northwestern part. The latter, tradition says, received its name in the times of the revo- lution, when General Lafayette, with his command, passed over it on his way from the east to the Hudson river country. In descending the steep hill, one of the oxen used in transporting goods, fell and broke his neck — hence the name. It is a fact, however, that the name Breakneck was applied to that locality many years before the revolution,* and was, no doubt, suggested by its perpendicular appearance, as viewed from some directions. Many huge rocks are scattered over the surface of the town, or appear in ledges. Most of them are granite. There are fine lands in some localities, which have been well improved. In other parts the soil is not susceptible of successful tillage, being rough and sterile, but has been used for grazing pur- poses. Nearly the entire drainage is into the Naugatuck and the Housa- tonic. Into the latter stream flows the Eight Mile brook, being the boundary line on the west and the outlet of Quassepaug lake or pond. This is a beautiful sheet of water, with pleasant surroundings which have caused it to become a place of resort. Southeast is Kissawaug or Long Meadow pond, whose outlet, flowing into the Naugatuck, is Towantic brook. Hop brook, flowing into the same stream several miles farther north, drains the northeastern part of the town, having *See Cothren's " History of Woodbury." 75S HISTORY OF NEW HAVEN COUNTY. as affluents a number of small brooks. Numerous springs abound in the town. Nearly all the present territory of Middlebury was included in the Mattatuck purchase and the early history is closely connected with that of Woodbury and Waterbury. Settlements were not made as early as in the localities along the Naugatuck and the Pomperaug and by far the greatest influx was after the revolution. Among those who claim pioneer distinction were the Bronsons, in the Breakneck section, where, in 1707, was born in the family of Isaac Bronson, the first white child. This also received the name of Isaac, who became a well-known citizen of that part of the town and was the great-grand- father of Julius Bronson, born in the same locality in 1807, and who was, in 1890, one of the few surviving old men in the town. The Bronsons were numerous and influential; but few have remained in Middlebury. Here the Abbott family settled later and descendants occupy some of the old places improved many years ago. The Tyler family lived west of the Bronsons, in what is to this day called the Tylertown district. Here was born the Reverend Bennett Tyler, D. D., who became famous as one of the old school theologians, and was president of Dartmouth College. Ebenezer Smith was nearer the outlet of the Quassepaug, locating there about 1720. He had sons named Ebenezer, Samuel and Daniel, the former serving in the revolution. For many years they were lead- ing men in that part of the town, in which some of the Tuttles also settled in 1740, and became active in affairs of the community. In the southern part of the town David Wooster settled about the same time. He opened a good farm and made fine improvements. The Wooster house, built before the revolution, still remains in a good state of preservation. Historic interest attaches to it on account of the fact that Chauncey Judd was there confined several days after the robbery of Captain Dayton, of Bethany,* in the revolution. The prop- erty still belongs to the Wooster family. In 1800, or soon after, there lived in Middlebury, James Tyler, Ash- bel Munson, Abner Munson, Thaddeus Bronson, Elisha Blackman, James Porter, Jonathan Sanford, Titus Bronson, Thomas B.

In the last 50 years the character of 'the population has been changed, many of the old families becoming extinct and a new ele- ment coming in. The inhabitants are also less in number than 50 years ago, being less than 700. Middlebury was incorporated as a town by an act of the October, 1807, general assembly, on the petition of Ebenezer Smith and others of the Society of Middlebury, in the towns of Waterbury, Woodbury and Southbury. The petition was filed April 24th, 1807, and the prayer was that the bounds of the town should be the same as those of the parish of Middlebury. The towns of Woodbury and Southbury consented to the incorporation without protest, but Waterbury objected, as the arrangement would deprive it of some of its best citizens. The question of the relative support of the poor and the maintenance of the bridges on division lines was left for decision to a commission com- posed of Andrew Hull and Rufus Hitchcock, of Cheshire: Josiah Dudley, of Derby, and Mark Harrison, of Wolcott. This committee was to meet at Beecher's inn, at Naugatuck, in December, 1807. The Ecclesiastical Society of Middlebury was created by the gen- eral assembly December 29th, 1790, and the new parish was made to embrace parts of Woodbury, Waterbury and Southbury. The meet- ing for organization was held January 27th, 1791, and arrangements were soon made for preaching services. Provision was also made for building a meeting house. A frame structure, 38 by 54 feet, was put up in 1793, and was used early the following year. It was last occu- pied May 5th, 1839, when it was taken down and the erection of the present edifice begun. This was dedicated April 29th, 1840, and cost, as then arranged, $3,438.41. It was at that time regarded as a fine place of worship, but subsequent improvements have modernized it and made it more attractive. A parsonage on an adjoining lot af- fords a comfortable home. The members of the society were not constituted a church until February 10th, 1796, when the following 12 persons entered into cov- enant relations: Josiah Bronson, Isaac Bronson, Thomas Richardson, Nathan Osborn, Samuel Chatfield, Seth Bronson, James Tyler, Titus Bronson, Elijah Bronson, Josiah Bronson, Jr., Eunice Richardson, Elizabeth Osborn. At this time Josiah Bronson was chosen as the clerk of the church. On the following March 22d, 24 more persons were added to the membership of the church, the males being Daniel Tyler, John Stone and John Thompson. Among the females were the wives of Isaac Bronson, Josiah Bronson, James Tyler, James Manville, Samuel Chat- field, Seth Bronson, Elijah Bronson, Eli Bronson, Nathaniel Richard- son, Thomas Barnes, Asa Lyman, Daniel Tyler, Eli Thompson, Amos 764 HISTORY OF NEW HAVEN COUNTY. Curtis, John Thomson, Josiah Bronson, Jr., Ezekiel Tuttle, Reuben Webb, Roswell Bronson. The deacons appointed this year were Na- than Osborn and Seth Bronson. In 1799 15 persons were enrolled as members, and in 1800, 37 joined. For the next dozen years, but a few joined each year, but in 1814, 26 joined, and in 1817, 28. A like number were added in 1822. In the three years following 1830, about 100 persons entered into fel- lowship. In 1842 there was another period of revival, some 25 persons joining ; about the same number were added in 1855, and nearly double that number joined in 1868. In 1889 the church had 91 mem- bers, of whom 30 were reported as living outside of the bounds of the parish. The church had no regular minister until the Reverend Ira Hart was ordained and installed November 6th, 179S. He was dismissed April 5th, 1809, and was succeeded by the Reverend Mark Mead, or- dained and installed November 4th, 1809, and dismissed March 30th, 1830; Jason Atwater, installed October 20th, 1830, and dismissed October 15th, 1845; George P. Prudden, as stated supply, from Decem- ber, 1845, to March 30th, 1851; Joel R. Arnold, as stated supply, from December 1st, 1851, to March, 1854; R. J. Cone, as stated supply, from June 3d, 1854, to December 16th, 1855; Jonathan S. Judd, installed June 25th, 1856, and died during his pastorate, May 11th, 1864; Clin- ton Clark, as stated supply, commencing June 1st, 1865. He was sud- denly taken ill September 23d, 1871, and died on the highway between the farms of Eli and Jerad Bronson. Reverend David Breed began preaching in May,1872, and was install- ed October 17th, the same year. He resigned October 30th, 1876, and was the last regular pastor. The ministers since that time have been stated supplies, as follows: H. G. Marshall, from June 1st, 1877, to June 7th, 1885; William J. Murphy, from October 4th, 18S5, to November 6th, 1887; Myron A.

The oldest of these, the "Ministerial Fund," was begun March 17th, 1790, and was raised to £1,086, or about $3,621. The contributions varied *Died in office. HISTORY OF NEW HAVEN COUNTY. 765 from £1 to ^105, the latter being given by Benjamin Munson. Josiah Bronson was the treasurer of this so-called "Bank for the support of the Gospel in Middlebury." In 1890 this fund amounted to $3,725. A second or new fund was raised by "The Middlebury Fund Company," organized January 13th, 1814, and originally amounted to $1,136. Philo Bronson was clerk of this fund and was succeeded by Ebenezer Smith, Robert Camp and Doctor De Forest, in the order named. The Sabbath school connected with the church has 75 members en- rolled, and D. M. Fenn is the superintendent. It is said that Jesse Lee visited the town as early as 1790* and preached the doctrines of Methodism; that eight years later Peter Van Ness came, and was followed, in 1800, by James Coleman; by Ebenezer Woodburn, in 1803; Phineas Pierce, in 1808; Gad Smith, in 1812; and Billy Hibbard, in 1815. They held meetings at the houses of Daniel and David Abbott; in a barn and cider mill, near Tylertown; at the Breakneck school house, and more latterly at the academy at the Cen- ter. As a result a number of persons were converted and the pres- ent Methodist church thus early had its beginning. Among the early members were: at the first period named, Daniel Abbott; in 1806, Thomas B. Wooster, Jacob Hall, Ephraim Tuttle, Joseph Mun- son, Lucinda Wooster Munson; in 1810, James Wooster and Nancy his wife, the former a very pious man and the latter also abounding in good works which were richly attested in her legacy of $1,500. In 1812 or 1813, David Abbott and Sarah Tyler, his wife, became Meth- odists, the latter leaving the Congregational church, much against the will of her parents and friends. For many years this worthy couple were leading Methodists, and their son, Ira, was a minister from 1839 until 1875. Another son, Alvin, also preached a short time. Four grandsons followed in the same steps, viz.: Larmon W. Abbott, Alvin V. R. Abbott (son of Alvin Abbott), Bennett F. Abbott (son of Ira Abbott) and Joseph W. Munson. Daniel Wooster also became a Meth- odist minister. In 1814, among the additions were Daniel Wooster, Almira Wheeler, Aunt "Becky" Buckley, so wonderfully gifted in prayer, and Aunt "Becky" Tuttle. In about 1818 the additions were Ruth Mallory, Anson Tuttle, Philo Woodruff, Eliza and Mary Northrup Harriet and Lucy Munson, Susan Tyler, Willis Treat, Joseph Wheeler, Joel Atwood, John Northrup and Truman Wooster. For a period of ten years the growth was slow and some members removed; but in 1831, under the preaching of Heman Bangs, there was a renewed interest and the purpose of building a church was now formed. In 1832 James Wooster leased a lot of land at the Center on which to build the house of worship. On this lot the district school house stood and there was some objection to the Methodists occupying it, but these were overruled. The school house was moved ♦From account by Anson F. Abbott. 766 HISTORY OF NEW HAVEN COUNTY. and good fellowship with the opposing Congregationalists was soon established. The building, begun in 1832, was not completed for sev- eral years, when it was occupied at a cost of $3,000. It is a plain, al- most square structure, having a two-story appearance so as to afford gallery room. In 1878 it was thoroughly improved at an outlay of about $500, and a parsonage, near by, was purchased for $1,000. The principal actors in this movement were Nelson J. Hayes, H. W. Munson, Ira Abbott, Lewis Tyrrell, Levings Abbott, Harriet L. Gaylord and Charity S. Fisher, a few only of whom lived in 1890. The house has a most beautiful location and the surroundings are fairly well kept. The property is valued at $4,500.

Daniel Keeler, born about 1695 in Norwalk, Fairfield Co., Connecticut, died about 1764 in New Canaan, Fairfield Co., Connecticut; married about 1730 Hannah Whitney, born 5 November 1707 in Norwalk, Fairfield Co., Connecticut. After Daniel's death, she married 2 July 1766 in New Canaan, Samuel Betts of Wilton.

METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH, SOUTHPORT.'S
From about the year 180.5 to 1820, Methodist meetings were held at Green's Farms in the houses of Peter Jennings and Noah Osborn, and in the schoolhouse. Green's Farms formed part of an extended circuit, and was visited by the Conference preacher once a month. In the absence of the preacher, Bradford Croft, a local preacher, supplied for them. Ebenezer
Washburn was the first preacher appointed by Conference ; Samuel Croft was the first class-leader. He and Bradford Croft and Joshua and Peter Wakeman were among the first official members of the church. The Crofts and their wives, Mrs. Wakeman, and Mr.
Stratten were among the first niembers of the church. In 1820, when the Green'.s Farms church was built, there were about forty members. They worshipped in that church till 1845, when the present church was built at Southport, largely by the liberality of Capt.
Davis, a noble, generous, and faithful Chiristian, who is still living. The determination to build the present church was made during the ministry of Rev. Zachariah Davenport, still living and greatly respected; he preached on the circuit that included Green's Farms during the years 1843—44. In 1845 it was dedicated.
The following is the list of preachers who have been appointed to Southport since the erection of the present church: Charles C. Keys, 1845; Charles Bartlett, 1840; James H.Perry, 1847-48; G. Gilbert, 1849- 50; Levis. Weed, 1851; William McAllister, 1852- .53; Reuben II. Loomis, 1854; George Hollis, 1855- .56; Samuel A. Seaman, 1857-58; Seymour Landon,
1859-GO; David Osborn, 1861-62; Charles Kelsey, 1863; W. Smith, 1864-65; G. Gilbert, 1866; David Nash, 1867-69; William Stebbins, 1870-72; L. W. Abbott, 187.3-75; William Brown, 1876; Henry A. Van Dalscm, 1877-78; .Joseph Smith, 1879-80. The present official members of the church are Stewards, Bradley Goodsell, Sr., Benjamin N. Hawkens, Andrew W. Jennings, Lewis B. Jennings, William F. Northrop, George E. Northrop, George F. :McKeel, A. P. Jennings, Elijah Gray ; Trustees, B. N. Hawkens, A. W. Jennings, L. B. .Jennings, Bradley Goodsell, Elijah Gray, Josiah Hawkens, William F.

Samuel Northrop removed his family from Salisbury, Conn., to Lenox, in 1770, when his daughter Phebe was but three years of age, coming with an ox team most of the distance, but at times being obliged to travel on horseback by the guidance of marked trees. Samuel located on East street. He died in 1786, aged 42 years. Col. Elijah Northrop, a younger brother of Samuel, accompanied him to Lenox, and erected a house next south of his brother on the place now owned by Thomas Sedgwick, which house was used as a tavern during the Revolutionary war, and is one of the oldest houses in the place. Col. Northrop died in 1832, at the age of eighty-two. During the Revolution, Indians and wild game were plenty, and often troublesome. Mr. Northrop used to relate that on one occasion he and others killed three bears close to his house. At another time he had killed a deer and brought it into the house, when an Indian called and claimed it, as he had followed it all day. It was finally decided to give it to the "child of the forest."GaAZETTEER OF bERKSHIRE cOUNTY Revolutionary Soldiers

By the mid-1800’s industrial entrepreneurs had established mills along the Kayaderosseras Creek and its tributaries all the way through Milton and the Village. Chief among these were the paper mills; but there were also cotton mills, foundries, tanneries and leather factories, wheel shops, lumber and cabinetry mills, and limestone quarries and kilns in addition to the saw mills, grist mills, and blacksmith shops established when the settlers first came. Communities, including Rock City Falls, West Milton, Milton Center, Craneville, Factory Village, Bloodville, and Rowland’s hollow, were clustered in the mill areas where churches, schools, stores, hotels and boarding houses were established. Family dairy farms and orchards dotted the landscape surrounding these settlements. Transportation continued to be by foot, horseback, and carriage or wagon over dirt roads until 1896 when the mills and communities along the Kayaderosseras were joined by an electric railway running from Ballston Spa to Middle Grove to provide both freight and passenger service that connected to other rail lines in the Village of Ballston Spa.

The town of Milton is second in importance to Saratoga Springs in point of population and wealth, but probably the first town in the county in the extent and value of its manufactures. Milton is bounded on the north by Greenfield, on the east by Saratoga Springs and Malta, on the south by Baliston and Chariton, and on the west by Gaiway. It contains 20,935 acres.

Just before the Revolution David Wood and his sons, Stephen, Benjamin, Elijah, Nathan and Enoch, purchased 600 acres at Milton Hill and moved into the town. Justus Jennings, a Revolutionary soldier, settled near Hop City about 1783.

An old record dated Apr. 10, 1818, mentions "Elihu Alvord for- merly of Fairfield, Conn., now of Black Rock, N. Y." Mr. Fish, grandson of Elihit Alvord writes that his grandfather lived for a few years after leaving Conn, at Albany, N. Y., and was employed in the shipyards there. He removed from Ellicottville, N. Y., to Scot Co., la., in 1837 settling on a claim 18 miles north of Davenport. He Sixth Generation 167 was the oldest member of the Scott Co. Pioneer Ass. and was prob- ably the oldest settler in the county. In 1857 when Mr. Alvord was eighty-one years old he visited his old home in Conn. By occupa- tion he was a cabinet maker and had considerable mechanical genius, so that he was wont to spend hours at a time endeavoring to perfect perpetual motion. He was fond of horticulture, a great reader and highly esteemed by all who knew him. His home, during the last years of his life was with his daughter, Alary Ann Fish, at Walnut Grove, la. When eighty-eight years old he walked from Walnut Grove, la., to Davenport, a distance of 18 miles, to visit his son C. C. Alvord. It was in July and the sun was very hot. The next day he was taken with an attack of cholera morbus from which he died on the second morning after leaving home. At the organization of St. John's Episcopal Church at Ellicottville, N. Y., Elihu Alvord was chosen vestryman, Sept., 1829. Property was deeded to Elihu Alvord of Milton, Saratoga Co., N. Y., in 1806 ; to Elihu Alvord of Marcellus, N. Y., in 1810 ; from Elihu Alvord and wife of Cayuga Co., N. Y., in 1812, of Ellicottville, N. Y., in 1833.

Elisha is in Canaan, ColumbiaCounty, NY (near Chatham) 1n 1810 The first settlers arrived around 1759. The town was founded in 1772 as "Kings District." The name was changed to "Canaan" in 1788. One of the oldest sections of Canaan is Frisbie Street, settled in 1770 by Gideon Frisbie, who emigrated from Canaan, Connecticut.[1]Frisbie Street fronts what was once the Albany-Boston stagecoach route.

Town of Canaan: Canaan has an area of 36.7 square miles on NY's border with Massachusetts in northern Columbia County. The town of Canaan includes parts of East Chatham, the rest of which is in the town of Chatham. Similarly, parts of Red Rock are included within Canaan's southern boundary. Canaan is bordered by Austerlitz to the south, New Lebanon to the north, Massachusetts to the east, and Chatham to the west. Canaan was founded by settlers from Canaan, Connecticut in 1759.

Elijah Northrup was a master carpenter who came from Newtown in Fairfield County, CT, in 1815. He was soon engaged to build "the Union Meeting House". As there are two such in the Little Nine Partners, this was probably the one in Pulvers Corners, as the other, in Bethel, was erected 1839 by one Carmen Cornellius.

Master Carpenter Northrup is said to have introduced the "square rule" framing method, replacing the old cut-and-try method. Timber was dressed in the field and the pieces fit perfectly when put in place on site. Whether this means that he invented the method has not been discovered.

Northrup married a daughter of John Couch and Rhoda Bennett, had nine children, all born in Pine Plains, and at an unknown date removed to Newark, NJ. Elijah Northrup was my 6C6.

Pine Plains NW of Sharon The town was part of the Little Nine Partners Patent of 1706. The town was first settled around 1740 by Moravian missionaries to the native Mahican village of Shekomeko. The Town of Pine Plains was formed from the Town of North East in 1823.

THE COTTON MILL.

The Humphreysville Manufacturing Company, organized in 1810, produced first woolen cloths, then cotton goods, and in 1831 commenced making paper, first with four employes, but increased the number within a month to sixteen. In 1843 this paper-mill passed into the hands of Hodge & Company; the firm consisting of G. L. Hodge, S. Y. Beach and Samuel Roselle; and in 1845 William Buffum purchased the cotton mill and continued its proprietor a few months. In 1850 Sharon Y. Beach bought the claims of the other two proprietors in the paper-mill and removed it to Blue street, where it still remains.

Great have been the changes between that day and the present. The whole territory is filled with buildings and immense manufacturing establishments, a full account of which may be found in Mr. Wm. C. Sharpe's " History of Seymour and Vicinity," a book which is of great value because of the many facts collected and recorded in it. Every family in the town should carefully preserve a copy of it.

Gen. Humphreys considered it of great importance to the interests of
the coimtry that manufactures, especially that of woolen cloths, should be
introduced, and with the nucleus of the "mills and clothiers' shop" purchased
of Styles he immediately set about it. In 1806 he had the factory built which
still stands on Factory street, near the race. On the fifth and sixth of June
was raised the frame of the first woolen factory built in the United States.
The name "Chusetown" appears on the town Eecords as late as 1804, but
it was soon changed to Humpreysville in honor of Gen. Humphreys, and this
name was retained until 1850.
That he might the better carry out his plans Gen. Humphrey made several
other pm-chases of land, among others the two following April 25, 1804. Of
Nathan and Experience Wheeler, for $600, "one piece of land at a place called
Northend, * * * lying on the west side of the highway, bounded northerly on
John Swift's land, westerly on the Naugatuck Eiver, southerly on land of
Daniel Tucker, Jr., then easterly on s'' Tucker's land, then southerly on should Tucker's land to the highway, then bounded easterly on highway to said Swift's
land, containing about 117 acres, more or less; also one other piece of land,
lying on the hill, bounded westerly on highway, northerly on land of Henry
Wooster, Jr., then westerly on land of s'^ Wooster, then again northerly on
land of s*^ Wooster, to the O'Cain land, then easterly on the O'Cain land, then
again easterly on highway to land of Zephaniah Tucker, then southerly on s*^
Tucker's land, then again easterly on s*^ Tucker's land, then running westerly
to the highway, as the fence now stands, containing about thirty-five acres of
land, more or less, with the buildings belonging to s'^ pieces of land."
Witnessed by John Humphreys, and John Humphreys, Jr.
He also purchased of Nathan Wheler, a tract of 131 acres, adjoining
lands of John Swift, Daniel Tucker, David Treat, Levi Hotchkiss, Fitch
Smith, Capt. Reuben Tucker, "common land," and highway, with another
piece of eight acres, for the consideration of $4,500.
Cattle, sheep and hogs still roamed at large on the common lands. One
item of the record says :—"David Humphrey's ear mark is a square half
penny the upper side the right ear. Entered May 15th, 1804. Per John
Humphreys, Reg""."
A road from Shrub Oak to Derby Narrows was demanded by the people
of Woodbury and adjoining towns, and laid out in 1805. The following
resolution in regard to it was passed June 11th, "Voted that the selectmen
of the town of Derby be directed, and they are hereby directed
to take such measures as in their judgement shall appear most prudent
and proper to procure the making of the Road they have lately laid out
on the west side of Naugatuck River, from Shruboak to Derby Landing, and
cause the same to be Avell made at the expense of said town, and they are
directed to collect and apply to that use any or all the monies due to said
Town as they may find themselves needful."
President Dwight, of Yale College, wrote an interesting sketch of
Humphreysville as he found it in the fall of 1811, which is here given
:
"Within the limits of Derby, four miles and a half from the mouth of
the Naugatuc, is a settlement named by the Legislature Humphreysville,
from the Hon. David Humphreys, formerly Minister Plenipotentiary at the
Court of Madrid. At this place a ridge of rocks, twenty feet in height
crosses the river, and forms a perfect dam about two thirds of the distance.
The remaining third is closed by an artificial dam. The stream is so large as
to furnish an abundance of water at all times for any works, which will probably
ever be erected on the spot. Those already existing are a grist-mill, a
saw-mill, a paper-mill, woolen manufactory, and a cotton manufactory, with
all their proper appendages, and a considerable number of other buildings,
destined to be the residence of the manufacturers, and for various other
purposes.
A strong current of water in a channel, cut through the rock on the
Eastern side, sets in motion all the machinery, employed in these buildings.
By this current are moved the grist-mill ; two newly invented shearing machines
; a breaker and finisher for carding sheep's wool ; a machine for making
ravellings; two jennies for spinning sheep's wool, under the roof of the
grist-mill ; the works in the paper-mill ; a picker ; two more carding machines
for sheep's wool ; and a billy with forty spindles in a third building ; a fulling-
mill ; a saw-mill, employed to cut the square timber, boards, laths, &c.,
for the different edifices, and to shape many of the wooden materials for the
machinery; two more fulling-mills on improved principles, immediately

connected with the clothier's shop ; and the various machinery in a cotton
manufactory, a building about one hundred feet long, thirty-six wide, and of
four stories, capable of containmg two thousand spindles with all their necessary
apparatus.
The houses can accommodate with a comfortable residence about one
hundred and fifty persons. Ten others in the neighbourhood will furnish
comfortable residences for upwards of one hundred and fifty more. Gardens
on a beautiful plat in the rear of the manufactories, furnish all the vegetables,
necessary for the establishment.
The institution contains four broad and eight narrow looms, and eighteen
stocking-frames.
The principal part of the labour in attending the machinery, in the
cotton and woolen manufactories, is done by women and children ; the former
hired at from fifty cents to one dollar per week ; the latter, apprentices, who
are regularly instructed in reading, writing, and arithmetic.
The wages of the men are from five to twenty-one dollars, per month.
In Europe great complaints have been made of manufacturing establishments,
as having been very commonly seats of vice, and disease. General
Humphreys began this, with a determination either to prevent these
evils, or if this could not be done, to give up the design. With regard to
the health of his people it is sufficient to observe, that from the year 1804 to
the year 1810, not an individual, belonging to the institution, died ; and it is
believed, that among no other equal number of persons there has been less
disease.
With respect to vice it may be remarked, that every person, who is discovered
to be openly immoral, is discharged.
At the commencement of the institution, discreet parents were reluctant
to place their children in it, from unfavourable apprehensions concerning the
tendency of such establishments. Since'that time they have been offered in
more than sufficient numbers.
In 1813, the Legislature, at the instance of Gen. Humphreys, passed a
law, constituting the select-men and magistracy of the several towns in which
manufactories had been or should be established, visitors of these institutions.
This law required the proprietors to controul in a manner specified, the morals
of all their workmen, and to educate the children, as other children in
l)lain families throughout the State are educated. The visitors were directed
to enquire annually, into the manner in which the proprietors conformed to
this law. The reports of the visitors in Derby, concerning the establishment
at Humphreysville, have been in a high degree honourable both to the proprietor
and his people.
The manufactures at Humphreysville are esteemed excellent. The best
broadcloth made here, is considered as inferiour to none which is imported.
Americans make all the machinery ; and have invented several kinds of
macliines, which are considered as superiour to such as have been devised in
Europe for the same purposes.
Most of the weaving has been done in private families.
The scenery at this spot is delightfully romantic. The Fall is a fine object.
The river, the buildings belonging to the institution, the valley, the bordering
hills, farms, and houses, groves, and forests, united, form a landscape, in
a high degree interesting.
The people of this country are, at least in my opinion, indebted not a
little to Gen. Humphreys, both for erecting this manufacturing establishment. aud for introducing into the United States tlie invaluable breed of Spanish
sheep, known by the name of Merinos. One hundred of these animals he
procured to be brought by the connivance of the Spanish Court, from the
interiour of Spain to Lisbon ; and thence transported to Derby under his own
eye. A few of them died in consequence of the voyage. The rest speedily
regained their strength and ftesh, aud from that time the breed, instead of
declining, has sensibly improved. For some years strong prejudices existed
in the minds of the farmers throughout our country against this breed of
sheep. Gen. Humphreys has done more than any other man, perhaps than
all others, to remove this prejudice, and to spread them through the country.
In this manufactory he has, I think, fairly established three points of
great importance. One is, that these manufactures can be carried on with
success ; another, that the workmen can be preserved in good health, as that,
enjoyed by any other class of men in the country ; and the third, that the
deterioration of morals in such institutions, which is often complained of, is
not necessary, but incidental, not inherent in the institution itself, but the
fault of the proprietor.
Derby, then including Oxford, contained in 175G, 1,000 inhabitants ; in
1774, 1,889 ; in 1700, 2,991. Derby alone contained in 1800, 1,878 inhabitants
; and, in 1810, 2,051."
The employes of the works were mostly Americans, but it was necessary
to send to England at great expense for men who were skilled in some branches
of the work which were entirely new in this country. Among them were
John Winterbottom, father of Mrs. Ann S. Stevens, and Thomas Gilyard,
son of Edmund and Nancy Gilyard, born in Leeds, England, March 20, 178G.
He came to New York in the "Commerce" in the summer of 1807, having had
a very fine passage of 15 days, and by packet to Xew Haven in tliree days sail,
a quick trip for those times. He immediately commenced work for Humphreys
and worked for him until JVIarch 28th, 1810. In this year the manufacture
of stockings was carried on here on a considerable scale. This was new work
for Gilyard, but he soon learned it. He was an active member of the Methodist
Society for many years. His very interesting journal has furnished many
dates and incidents for these pages.
In 1802 Canfield Gillett was appointed a committee to make application
to the General Assembly for permission to sell the land near Eimmon Falls
still belonging to the Indians, (D. E., B. M. D., p. 119,) but the permission
was not granted until 1810. The laud was sold in 1812. Following is a copy
of the deed to Gen. Humphreys.
" Whei'eas the General Assemhly at their Session In May, 1610, authorized the Suhscrlber,
Joseph lilggs of Derby, in Neiv Haven County, to sell and convey certain lands lying in said
Derby, Humpreysville, the property of Philip, Hestor and Mary, ando other certain Indian

The land referred to in above deed as sold to Phebe Stiles consisted of 2
acres and 20 rods, "beginning five rods and three feet from the northwest comer
of Col. Humphrey's new cellar, and running northerly by highway to Col.
David Humphreys' land, thence easterly to said Phebe's land, thence southerly
by her lands to lands this day conveyed to said Humphreys, and thence by said
land to place of beginning."
From the following extracts from the town records it appears that another
tract of land was purchased for the Indians with the proceeds of the above
sales. "Whereas the General assembly, June 7th, 1813, authorized Joseph
Kiggs to sell certain lands the property of Philip, Moses, Hester, Frank and
Mary Seymour, w^hich lay in Derby and which descended to them from John
Howder (Howd), an Indian, and to lay out the avails in other real estate," a
tract of land was purchased "for $230 for and in behalf of said Moses,
Hester and thfe children of said Mary Seymour, the said Mary being deceased,"—
four acres, three quarters and eleven rods bounded north on James
Lewis, easterly and northerly on the lands of Isaac Short, and easterly on
Isaac Thompson, southerly on land of Peter Johnson, and westerly on highway,
"the children of said Mary Seymour (evidently Moses, Frank and Mary)
to have one undivided third. To Phillip, Hester and representatives of said
Mary, by Lewis and Betsey Prindle." Deed executed June 15th, 1813.
The War of 1812, calling for men and means from every section of the
country, though it could but interrupt to some extent the progress of the
peaceful arts, did not prevent a continued growth of the manufacturing industries
in Humphreysville. The busy hum of machinery and the sound of
preparations for war were alike heard in our peaceful valley. A company of
artillery was formed in Humphreysville, including a few from Oxford, and
sent to New London and stationed at the fort at the mouth of the river
Thames. The following names of the members of the company have been
obtained from inscriptions in our cemeteries and elderly people of the vicinity :

The company was completed by a draft and Samuel Canfield was one of
those who were drafted. He was then apprentice to Elias Gilbert, a machinist
who worked in a shop which he had built near the corner of Hill and
Pearl streets, next to the blacksmith shop, now occupied by William J.
Roberts as a dwelling. Canfield was then eighteen years of age and had
become so skillful a machinist that his employer, rather than lose his services,
hired a substitute in his place. Gilbert did the machine work for Gen.
Humphreys. William Humphreys, brother of Squire John Humphreys and
nephew of Gen. Humphreys invented several useful machines to facilitate the
manufacture of broadcloth, and the machines were built by Gilbert.
Gen. Humphreys was always ready to honor the memory of his brave
compatriots. At a town meeting held April 12th, 1813, he introduced and
the following resolutions, which were passed unanimously
:
Resolved, that Isaac Hull, Eaq., a native of this town, Captain in the Navy of
the U. S., and lately Commander of their Frigate Constitution, with the aid of his
gallant oflScers and ships companv and the smiles of Providence, having led the van
in the career of our naval glory, capturing his Britanic Majesty's Frigate Guerriere
commanded by Captain Dacres, has in our opinion deserved well of his country and
is an ornament to the place of his nativity.
Resolved, that joining cordially in the universal applause, bestowed by our countrymen
on Hull, Jones, Decatur, Bainbridge and Lawrence, and their brave and
skillful associates in perils and triumphs, for their glorious naval achievements, we
judge we have a right in our corporate capacity without showing an undue partiality
to the first mentioned officer or stepping aside from our municipal duties, to notice
more particularly his exemplary merits from having better opportunities of becoming
acquainted with them.
Resolved, that Messrs. John L. Tomlinson, William Humphreys and Pearl Crafts
be a committee to collect and digest such distinguishing and illustrative facts on the
subject matter now before us as may be attainable and that they will cause the result
to be communicated to the public in such manner as they shall deem most proper.
Resolved, that from the interruption of our Fisheries and navigation by war,
silver and gold we have not, to offer in costly demonstrations of respect and esteem in
imitation of richer towns, yet what we have we freely give, to wit, a tribute of
gratitude.
Therefore, voted that Isaac Hull, Esq., being already constitutionally entitled to
the freedom of this corporation, the thanks of this town be presented to him in a bos
made of heart of oak, the congenial growth of his native hills.
Voted, that the committee take order from the Selectmen for the performance of
this service and report their proceedings to a future meeting for the express purpose
that a town Record be made for the perpetual remembrance of these transactions.
Voted, that the committee above named be directed to transmit to Capt. Hull a
certified copy of the foregoing resolutions.

While the fathers were intent on raising sheep the boys had their department
in the new industry, and busied themselves to raise the teasels used in
dressing the cloth. Gen. Humphreys organized the boys of the factory into a
trainband, and furnished them with the articles necessary for drill. The silk
flag, beautifully embroidered by Lady Humphreys, is now in the possession of
Carlos French, Esq. The inscription is as follows:

Gen. Humphreys died in 1818. His remains were interred in Xew
Haven Cemetery. Upon the monument is the following inscription on two
tablets of copper inserted in the pedestal

This may be rendered as follows
:
David Humphreys, Doctor of Laws, Mendier of the Academy of Science of Philadelphia,
Massachusetts, and Connecticut ; of the Bath [Agricultural] Society, and of the Royal Society of
London. Fired with the love of country and of liberty, he consecrated his youth wholly to the
service of the Republic, which he defended by his arms, aided by his counsels, adorned by his
learning, and preserved in harmony with foreign nations. In the field, he was the companion and
aid of the great Washington, a Colonel in the army of his country, and commander of the Veteran
Volunteers of Connecticut. He went Ambassador to the courts of Portugal and Spain, and returning,
enriched his native land with the true golden fleece. He was a distinguished Historian and
Poet ; a model and Patron of Science, and of the ornamental and useful arts. After a full discharge
of every duty, and a life well spent, he died on the 21st day of February, 1818, aged 65 years. SEYMOUR AND VICK^ITY.
Mrs. Mills, the wife of the pastor of Fairfield, and sister of General
Hnraphrej , died in 1815. When the British burned Faii-field, July 7th,
1779, she fled on horseback, having put her best feather bed across the horse,
and came to old Derby. The parsonage and the church in which her husband
had preached were burned to the ground. She afterward had built for her
the house in the rear of that now occupied by Dr. J. Kendall, and there remained
until her death.
The representation of Humphreysville on the opposite page is from a
woodcut made either by Abial Canfield or by an English engraver in his
employ, for use as a trade mark in the ])apermill, which may be distinguished
in the woodcut by the water wheel outside the mill. Between the papermill
and the dam was the gristmill, previously occupied by I^athan Stiles as a
woolen mill. At the right of the papermill was the sawmill. The large
building at the right of the sawmill was the woolen factory in which General
Humphreys made the first broadcloth ever manufactured in the United States.
At the right of the factory was the "Long House," built by General Humphreys
for dwellings for his employes. The building on the right and the
smaller one adjoining were used by Gen. H. as an office and storehouse. The
little building at thefoot of the hill was a machine shop connected with the
woolen factory. The barn on the hill beyond the office spire belonged to
Abel Bassett.
There Avas a great revival in the foil and winter of 1816 among the
Methodists. "Uncle Timothy" Hitchcock was one of the converts. Reuben
Harris was in charge. He. lived in the house with Stiles Johnson. The
summer of 1816 was known as "the cold summer." There was frost
every month in the year. In this year Worrull & Hudson sold out the
papermill to Ebenezer Fisher and Henry LeForge.
In 1817 the Congregational Society was organized. Vide page 9. In
connection with the sale of the old church to the Methodists the following
from the records is Of interest

In 1818, Stiles Johnson gave by will to the Methodist Society the ground
on which the church stands, with the green in fi-ont, also $334 in money, of
which $134 was to be applied to repairs on the church, the $200 to be kept
as a perpetual fund, the interest only to be applied for the support of
"regular Sabbath preaching." Following is a copy of the clause of his will
making the bequest to the church
:
2nd.—I tvill and bequeath to the Methodist Society in Humphreys ViUe the land on
ivhich the meeting house now stands, together with the Green in front of said House, to be in
the care of the Trustees of Miid house, for the benefit of said Society, and I also give three
Hundred and thirty-four dollars of my Estate to be applied to the support of the Methodist
traveling Preachers as long as there shall be regular Sabbath preaching in the aforesaid
Meeting House, tvhich money shall be raised and paid out of my Estate as though it was a
Debt to the Trustees of said House and tJie Interest annually applied as aforesaid. But if it
should be thou{)ht by the aforesaid Trustees more for the benefit of said Society, they may
apply any sum not exceeding one Hundred and thirty-four dollars to making further repairs
on said House, and the remainder to be applied as aforesaid. But if the Traveling Connection
should neglect or refuse to supply said House as aforesaid then the Interest of said money
shall be given to such local preachers as shall for the time being supply their jylace according
to the discretion 'of the Trustees.
In May, 1822, the Humphreysville Manufacturing Company was incorporated
by act of the Legislature and organized with a capital of $50,000.
John H. beForest was the first president and J. Fisher Learning, secretary.

Philadelphia Aug. 1st, for $10,000; being described in D. E., Vol. 22, p.

:

the dam and all the water privileges appertaining thereto, then bounded southerly on said
Naugatuck River to a point ivhere the highway strikes said river, thenee easterly on highway

road, then bounded easterly on said channel to the Rimmon falls rock, thence running on said
Fall rocks, bounded eastei-ly on said Naugatuck River to the north side of the pathway leading

said John, William <^- Elijah Humphreys' land cf to the burying ground, * * * containing
about Sixteen aeres, more or less, with the full, absolute cf exclusive water privileges on
both sides the river," cj'c.
The (lain was soon rebuilt, the watercourse to the mills widened and
cotton machinery put in. There was then one store in the valley and one on
the hill near the Episcopal Church, DeForest lived at Mrst in the Roth house,
on west side of south INIain street, opposite Pearl street, till he built the house
now occupied by Raymond French, Esq., in which he lived until his death
in 1839.
Tlie shop in the fork of the road near the M. E. Church was built in
1825 by Newel Johnson, Isaac Kenney and Jesse Smith owning a portion of
the building. The upper part of the building was used by Johnson for a
carpenter and cabinet shop and what coffins were required in the village
were made there. Newel Johnson built the houses of Denzel Hitchcock and
others. Johnson's iiither lived in the house now occupied by Jeremiah Durand.
In 1828, Samuel R. Hickox, a local preacher from Southbury, moved
into Humphreysville and took charge of the grist mill near the falls. Rev.
Amos Pettengill was the pastor of the Congi'egational church, Rev. Stephen
Jewett of the Episcopal church, and Rev. A. H. Sanford of the Methodist
church. In this year a bell was first procured for the Episcopal church and
a stove put up in the church. Previous to this, loot stoves were the only
means of producing artificial warmth in the churches. About this time
Judson English came from Hotchkisstown, now Westville, and bought out
the tannery on tlie premises now owned by Arthur Rider, previously run by
Benham. The bark mill was further south on the brook just below the railroad
crossing. About ten years later English sold out to George Kirtland
and removed to Great Hill. The father of Judson was one of the early
Methodists, and Judson was a class-leader when living in Hotchkisstown.
Always a very hard working man and strictly temperate, few men could beat
him in the field until he was neai'ly seventy years of age. He was always a
working member of the cliurcli of his choice, and a trustee and steward of
the Great Hill Society until his death.
In 1830, Leveret Pritchard was living on the knoll opposite the saw-mill
still standing near the upper end of Maple street. Previous to that time he
lived in the house in the rear of Dr. J. Kendall's.
Chester Jones, a paper maker, built the north "Kirtland house," and
kept a store in it. He afterward moved to Ohio, returning in a year or two,
and was for several years superintendent of the Humphreysville Manufacturing
Co's Papermill, living in the house close by. His wife was a daughter
of Dea. Bradford Steele. The house afterward owned by William Kinney,
was built by Jones. He afterward moved to Erie and died there. Ezekiel
Gilbert bad kept a store below S(iuantuck on the river road, but about this
time he came to Humphreysville and kept the tavern on Broad street about
two years, when he built the store now kept by H. ^Y. Randall. Moshier 70 SEYMOUR AND VICINITY.
then moved back into the hotel and occupied it until his death. While Gilbert
was in the hotel Moshier lived in Mrs. Bliss' house, corner of north Main
and Day streets, and built the paper mill.
In 1831, George Kirtland on behalf of the Methodist Society paid $110
for the land for the parsonage, including the place now owned by Evan
Llewellyn, corner of Pearl and Grand streets, and the lot on the opposite
corner now owned by Edwin Smith, Grand street not having been opened
until many years after. The parsonage was built the following year.
The Humphreysville Manufacturing Co. commenced the work of papermaking
in May with four employes, Chester Jones, Wm. Bates, Jane Patcheu
and Lois Thomson; but increased the number during the month to sixteen.
In 1832 business was prosperous and local industries remunerative. The
Humphreysville Manufacturing Co. employed 18 hands and the 16th of April
commenced running night and day, making paper for the New Haven
Palladium and other papers. The mill produced not only news but tissue and
colored papers.
Bethany was incorporated as a town in this year, having previously been
a parish of Woodbridge.
At this time the store and house, corner of Pearl and Hill streets were
occupied by David Sanford, and Lyman Smith kept the store across the road,
in a building since removed. Sanford was called "Pitchfork Sanford." Y'^ears
before he kept the blacksmith shop on the Woodbridge road, and one day in
an altercation he killed a man with a pitchfork. Sanford was tried, branded
and made to wear a cord around his neck the remainder of his life.
Butter sold at fourteen cents a pound and oak wood at three dollars a
cord. Factory girls paid $1,122 per week for board. A horse and wagon
could be hired to go to New Haven for one dollar. These were fair samples
of the prices of those times and illustrate the comparative purchasing value of
a dollar then and now.
A "Caravan of W^ild Beasts" exhibited near Moshier's tavern, in the
summer of 1834 and excited considerable interest, being probably the first
exhibition of the kind which ever passed through the village.
There was a great Hood Jan. 31st, 1835, overflowing the lowlands, but
doing no great damage. May 4th was the annual training day and a general
holitlay in the village.
The hard times of 1837, following years of prosperity and undue speculation,
when the banks of New York and New Orleans alone failed to the
amount of a hundred and fifty million of dollars, could but seriously aftect
the fortunes of Humphreysville, though far less in proportion than larger
places generally, which had launched more deeply into the tide of inflation.
Most of the fiictories and shops continued their work, though compelled for a
time by a lack of a reliable circulating medium to do business principally by
barter. The Htimphreysville Manufacturing Co. however reduced its employes
to seven, and May Gth stopped entirely until the 9th of October, and
the Cotton Factory shut down and remained idle until January IGth, 1838.
At this time there were three auger factories in the village, as follows :
Baymond French, Blueville, where Rubber factory now stands.
Gilbert & Wooster, forges in Bennett VA^ooster's l)lacksmith shop, east
of row of maples shown in cut on page G7, filing room in the south part of
Gilbert's building on the corner of Main and Hill streets, and finishing room
under the sawmill shown in cut of Humphreysville.
Walter French, near house now occupied by Warren French.
Wm. Burritt, now living in Waterbury, carried on the stove and tinware
SEYMOUK AND VICINITY. 71
busiuess in the Lyman 8unth Building, as successor to Burritt & Lewis,
wliose store and shop was in the Wheeler Building, at the foot of Falls Hill.
The firm had been dissolved in the fall of 1836, Edward Lewis going to
Birmingham, where he still continues in the same business. In the spring of
1839 Burritt removed to Norwalk. Henry Bradley was then learning his
trade with Burritt, and went with him to Norwalk to complete his engagement,
returning a few years later to pursue the same business with M. Bradley,
noAV in Westville, under the firm name of H. & M. Bradley.
The merchants of the place were—Ezekiel Gilbert, store adjoining his
house, corner of Main and Hill streets; Wakeman & Stoddard, (Uri and
Thomas,) store in Kinney's Building ; and Andrew DeForest, store in the
building now kept by Mr. Kandall. Ezekiel Gilbert afterward sold out to
Humphrey & Wooster.
Jeremiah Coggswell, an Indian, was shot on Great Hill Jan. 30th, 1838,
l)y James Driver, in the house of the latter. From the evidence at the exainination
held at Moshier's tavern three days after it appeared that Coggswell
was drunk and quarrelsome, and was killed in self-defence.
There was a great flood Jan. 7tli, and considerable damage done to the
paper-mill and other proi)erty.
Raymond French's auger factory was burned on tlie night of the 15th
of July," 1841, but with characteristic energy he soon rebuilt.
Miles Culver built a house on the upper plains. He was a valuable
member of the Congregational Church and also opened his doors to the
Methodist ministers,"services being frequently held in his house by Eevs.
Oliver Sykes and Sylvester Smith.
The' Humphreysville Graveyard Association was organized in 1842.
Anything relating to the last resting places of so many of our deceased relatives
and" friends must always be an object of mournful interest and no apology
is needed for copying here the concise preamble and articles of association
from the Derby Records, Yol. 32, page 51.
"Whereas, B. W. Smith, Samuel Bassett and 93 others formed an Association
for the purpose of establishing a Village Grave Yard, and through Clark
W^ooster, Joshua Kendall and Wales French, a committee of trust, did purchase
on the 2Gth day of Sept. 1842, one certain tract of land situated in Derby at
Humphrevsvilie bounded and described as follows, viz: Westerly on highway,
southerly "on land of Sarah Holbrook and John Lindley, easterly on the Naugatuck
River, northerly on land of John Lindley, containing two and a half
acres—now therefore for tlie well ordering of the attairs of said Association,
and acting under the original articles of agreement, and in accordance with
an act of the General Assembly of this state entitled an act concerning Burying
Grounds and places of Sepulture, approved June 2, 1842, do for ourselves
and successors form a body politic and corporate under the following articles
of Association, viz:
—
Art. 1st. This Association shall be called and known by the name of the
Humphreysville Grave Yard Association.
Art. 2nd, The tract of Land described in the foregoing preamble is hereby
appropriated to be forever used and occupied as a graveyard, and for no other
purpose, aud each original proprietor thereof in consideration of three^ dollars
paid by him or her shall be entitled to one family lot in said Grave Yard 12
by 21 feet, and the surplus of ground shall be held in conimon by this
Association and may be disposed'of in such manner as the Associatiun shall
trom time to time direct.

dates for schools
Until about the year 1800 the several district committees
were appointed at the annual town meeting and the laying
of a tax on the rateable estates of the town to meet the
expense of the schools was kept up until the management
of the schools was given over to practically the present
district system, each district paying its own school expenses
until by state law the schools become free. The town still
has its 21 school districts and schools are maintained 40
6
72
weeks in the year. Three years ago the town voted to establish
and maintain a High School. It commenced on
its fourth year in September with three teachers and eighty
pupils. Every taxpayer in the town should feel a just pride
in the record it is making for itself.
School districts existed for the convenience of the larger
towns as early as 1725, but were not recognized by law until
1766 and had no semblance of corporate existence -until
1794.

Public gatherings were assembled by the beat of the drum
until the year 1745, when a bell was purchased and hung in
the meeting house to be used on all public occasions.

A Sandemanian society was organized in 1740. The
building in which to hold their services stood midway between
Mrs. Marcus Hawley's and the Middle district school
house. The society disbanded in the early years of the last
century.
The Sandemanians were the followers of one Robert
Sandeman of New Haven Colony and were looked upon
with mistrust, so much so, that the General Court of Connecticut
at its October session, 1777, passed a "Bill granting
Liberty to Sandemanian Disciples to abide in the State
upon Parol, or depart with their Families." The preamble
reads
"Whereas it appears to this Assembly that Daniel Humphreys,
Titus Smith, Richard Woodhul, Thomas Goold, Joseph Pyncheon,
Theophilus Chamberlain Benjamin Smith and William Richmond
disciples of the late Robert Sandeman residing in New Haven have
imbibed the opinion that they owe an allegiance to the king of Great
Britain and that they are bound in conscience to yield obedience to
his authority, and have signified their desire if they may not continue
at New Haven to remove to some place under the dominion of said
King-
Resolved by this Assembly That the said persons and each of
them may be at liberty to continue in this State upon giving their
parole of honor that they will not do anything injurious to this
State or the United States of America or give any intelligence, aid
or assistance to the British officers or forces at war with this and the
other United States, or if they decline giving such parole, they, with
their families household goods apparel and provisions sufficient for
their passage may remove to any place subject to the government of
the King of Great Britain, or to New York now occupied by the
said King's troops."
Passed in the upper House ) Geo. Willys Sec.
Concurred in the lower House ' Benja. Payne Clerk.
The Baptist church and society took its organic form in
1794, its numerical strength lying largely in the eastern part
of the town. The church building was located in Zoar near
the house now owned bv Charles Pratt.

"the Sabbath Day house was a place in which to take refreshments
between the two church services, and for social and religious worship
as the occupants might be inclined. It was built in two divisions,
one for males and the other for females. Some families would have
houses of their own for private use. These houses were necessary
because the meeting houses were not warmed."
From Vol. I of Newtown Records we find there were no
less than seven Sabbath Day houses on Newtown street in
-78-
the early days. They were all located on the highway,
permission being given by vote of the freeholders in Town
meeting. Thinking it may be of special interest we give
a few of the votes as recorded :
December 9, 1740,
"voted and agreed that Jeremiah Northrop shall have liberty to set
a small Sabbath day house In ye Lane by or against Captain Baldwin's
orchard."
Dec. ye 8 1743
"voted and agreed that Lieutenant Joseph Smith and Caleb Baldwin
Junr. Shall have Liberty to Build a small house for a Sabbath Day
House adjoining with Jeremiah Northrop or Separate if they see
cause. In such place by Capt. Baldwins House Lot in ye Lane not
to Damnify sd. highway."
December 3, 1750,
"voted that Jonathan Sanford shall have Liberty to Build a small
Sabbath Day house at ye westerly end of John Plat's Sabbath Day
house."
December 23, 1751,
"voted that Benjamin Northrop shall have Liberty to Building a
Sabbath Day house for his use in ye Lane by Captain Baldwin's
fence of his home Lott Below or something west of Caleb Baldwin's
Sabbath day house."
December 3, 1753,
"voted that Matthew Curtis shall have Liberty to erect or sett up a
Sabbath Day house in ye Cross Lane by Captain Baldwin's as they
shall think best by agreement."
December 30, 1754,
"voted that Captain Amos Botsford shall have Liberty to Build a
small house for Sabbath Days, not Doing Damage to ye highway nor
any other person."
79
December 30 A. D. 1754
"voted in Town Meeting that all ye farmers Belonging to Newtown
may have Liberty to set a small house for Sabbath Days not Doing
Damage to ye highways nor any other person."
John Northrop Town Clerk

In 1739, 28 years after the town's incorporation, the
names of 143 property holders appear on the Grand List,
and the sum total of taxable property expressed in dollars
was 46,445 dollars. A poll went in at 90 dollars, a pair
of oxen 40 dollars, horses, of which there were 202,
Avere rated at 15 dollars each. A man's trade or business
had an assessed valuation, varying from 20 to 125 dollars.
Samuel Sherman's trade was manufacturing and selling
brooms, on which he was assessed 150 dollars. Widow
Sarah Beers was assessed 50 dollars on her trade. This was
taxation without representation.
Job Northrop was taxed on 50 dollars for "faculty."
Jehoshaphat Pringle was taxed on 40 dollars for "faculty,"
and Widow Mary Bennett was taxed on 65 dollars for
"faculty." By "faculty" was meant superior wisdom and
judgment above that of their neighbors. The legal and
medical fraternity were not as numerous to consult with
as now. Newtown had no representation at the General Court
until 1747, when Mr. John Northrop and Capt. Thomas
Toucey were chosen to represent the town at the General
Assembly in May following.
In 1744 Newtown was made a part of the Probate Court
of Danbury and so continued until 1820. Between those
two dates all the Probate records pertaining to Newtown
estates are to be found in the Probate Office at Danbury.

on the same site as where the first one stood.
To those who are familiar with Longfellow's poem,
"Evangeline," it may be interesting to know that Newtown
was obliged to care for one family from Grand Pre from
1756 to 1762. There can be little doubt that the first Roman Catholics
who came into Newtown came in 1756, not from choice,
but from compulsion.
When France ceded Acadia, now Nova Scotia, to the
English the Acadians chose to remain, though they had free
choice to leave any time within two years. They refused to
take the oath of allegiance to the British king, though they
did take the oath of fidelity. They were exempted from
bearing arms against their countrymen in Canada, and
allowed to enjoy their own religion, which was Roman
Catholic.
The British government finally decided to remove the
Acadians, confiscate their property and scatter them among
their colonies on the Continent, and 300 were assigned to
the Connecticut Colony and were landed at New London
in 1756. The General Court at its January session in 1756
in New Haven passed an act for distributing and well
ordering the French people sent into the colony from Nova
Scotia. Four were assigned to Newtown. They were
known as the neutral French and were cared for at the
town's expense. Every year for six years their records
show resolutions that were passed for the care of the French
family called neutrals. The town built them a house and
provided for all their needs. It could not turn them off,
nor could they go out of the town without its consent.
The boy of the family was finally bound out for a term of
years to Zadock Sherman, and the man Paul and his wife
were allowed by vote (of the town) to go visiting their
friends, relations or acquaintances. As the town could
not turn them adrift, they voted to allow them to go visiting,
as shrewd diplomacy as any of the present day.

always dared to lead where any dared to follow. Draw on
our imagination all we will, who of us, at this distant day,
can realize the dignity, the solemnity, of the scene when the
first little band of eight freemen stood before the gallant
leader they had in the Town Clerk, and with uplifted hand,
swore before the ever living God to uphold, and defend if
need be with their lives, the cause espoused as set forth in
the Declaration of Independence.

Newtown lies on the direct inland course from Hartford
to the Hudson river at Peekskill to see, that of necessity
the moving of troops in either direction, from the eastern
coast to the Hudson river or from the Hudson river to

When the historical paper that was read at Newtown's Bicentennial
celebration August 5, 1905,

Charles N. Northrop, son of William and Julia Lamberton North- rop, born, Nov. 21, 1859. Attended Newtown Academy and entered Yale, but did not graduate owing to ill-health ; later studied law and was graduated from Yale Law School, 1880; commenced practice in Lincoln, Neb., returning soon to Newtown. In 1882 was Secre- tary of Board of School Visitors ; in 1885 was again elected, but declined when re-nominated in 1888. In 1887 was chosen Town Clerk and about that time was elected secretary of Newtown Savings Bank; in 1891, was elected Town Treasurer, which office he held until his death in May, 1908. In 1887, he married Mary Grace Hammond. Their children are Eleanor Louise and Nelson W^illiam Northrop.

heap of stones where ye southard side of sd Northrop's lot or land, then
to a large rock with stones on it gainst Ebenezer Blackman's land adding
stones to it.

the present boundary line
separating Newtown from Monroe and Trumbull is the same line
that separated Newtown from Stratford in 1715, Monroe and
Trumbull having been set ofT from the north part of Stratford
long time afterward, so that it was only six miles from the center
of our town to the boundary line between Stratford and Newtown.

Of the lay-out of highways in Newtown, first in order is the road
leading southerly to the town line, the whole distance now a State
road that will become a section of a "trunk line" extending from
New York City to Berkshire Hills in Massachusetts.
We, the committee that are to lay out highways whose names are underwritten
have ye 14th day of November, 1715, laid out ye country road
towards Stratford as far as Pototuck brook and measured it from Joseph
Peck's house two miles. Sd road is eight rods wide from Ebenezer Johnson's
and crooks as ye path to ye Deep Brook does and there we crost ye
east corner of Ebenezer Booth's land, which he had of Samuel Beers,
which quantity he takes and joyns to his other land. We clypt ye northeast
corner of Jeremiah Northrop's twelve acre lott from his eastward
corner which is a white oak tree, and by ye side of ye next brook we
marked a black oak tree. Ye highway down stream eight rods from sd
tree. Ye first mile goes 16 to 18 rods southard to a crooked white oak,
marked. We clypt ye east corner of Joseph's Peck's 20 acre lott as marked
by a black oak standing on his part. He then consented to it. Betwixt
this and ye next swamp we began to lay out ye highway 10 rods wide.
Eastward of ye cart parth it goes to Joseph Peck's 60 acre lot as marked
trees will discern, the eight rods until over sd Pohtatuck brook ye two
miles. Here is a white oak tree marked against sd Peck's land. When we
laid out ye highway eight rods wide over Pohtatuck brook across ye
southern end of John Glover's 60 acre lot, and up a valley between New
Haven Plain and Long Swamp, eight rods wide, and so crossing ye old
road at a little brook as ye marked trees will show, and rocks with stones
and homeward to ye place where we began to make ye road 10 rods wide

A lay-out, a few days later, from the center to what became Sandy
Hook and on toward Woodbury

A town meeting was called for January 12, 1732, "to
consult what was proper to be done with ye Rev John Beach under ye
present difficulties of ye town by sd Mr Beach, who hath declared himself
to be in communion with ye church of England.

Rev Elisha Kent moved to utchess NY He left his charge in Newtown, conscientiously opposed to the existing religion there, and in 1743 was installed first pastor of Fairfield East Association, Dutchess Co., N. Y. Southeast Carmel,
East and West Phillippi were under his charge, but in 1750 he confined his
labors to East Phillippi, where he had in 1743 purchased a farm of 500 acres.
He became one of the most influential men of his section. His wife died
in 1751 and his own death occurred at Phillippi, N. Y., July 17, 1776.

From 1816 to 1825, the people were without a settled minister.

The Rev. John Beach after his ordination in England officiated
] alternately at Newtown and Redding.

THE METHODIST CHURCH.
The first class meeting held by the Methodists was in 1800. The
first preaching service was held in the house of Mrs. Phebe Peck,
just above the village, with others afterward in the old town house.
In 1805, a class was formed as a nucleus to forming a Church organization.
Later a class was formed at Flat Swamp (Where many Northrops lived) in 1828.

Circuit preaching was had once in about four weeks, at school
houses or at private dwellings. The first meeting house, dedicated
in 1831, stood just north of Mrs. Marcus Hawley's residence.
In 1850, that building was sold, and a more commodious one
built at Sandy Hook at a cost of $3,300.

George Northrop

Name: Hiram Dwight Northrop 1

Birth: 20 OCT 1843 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Looks like he returns to CT to run the Colebrook store

[1900 Gertrude Smith sold to a partnership of seven persons headed by Hiram D. Northrup. All were Colebrook residents and consisted of Northrup, Luther Sparks, Horace North, Julia Phelps, Edward B. Hawksley, Joseph E. Turner and his son, Ralph H. Turner. The firm name was J. E. Turner and Son. Their land title refers to the property as “formerly known as the Rockwell Store”. The partnership did not last long, however, as Northrup bought out his partners shortly thereafter.

1923 Hiram D. Northrup sold ½ interest in the store to his clerk, Clarence F. Stotts, for $1.00. There was one restriction placed upon the title deed. It reads: “This conveyance is made with this restriction and condition: that for 12 years from the date hereof [Dec. 6, 1923] no person by name of Cooper shall own any interest in the premises, nor occupy any part, nor be employed in the premises for any purpose or under any pretext whatever.” This reflects a feud that persisted for years between the two stores in the Center. Cooper’s store was located in what today is 474 Smith Hill Road.

1930 S. Ellen Northrup, widow of Hiram, sold the remaining half of the store to Stotts for “a valuable sum of money”.]

The original store that the Rockwells had constructed in Colebrook Center is the building that we know today as the Woodbine Cottage that stands directly behind the Colebrook Store on Connecticut Route 182-A. According to the original store ledger, now in the possession of John O. Newell, it was built and opened for business in 1803.
