June 1788 became the month of decision. Virginia's convention met on the second, New York's on the seventeenth and New Hampshire's on the eighteeneth. Although they started latest, the Granite Staters surged to the head of the pack because they had thrashed out a lot of disagreements in their earlier convention - and because Governor John Sullivan (age 48) had gone from mediocre general to first-class politician.

1795: Death of Master John
Sullivans in my own family have been noted for longevity. Evidently this trait is not universal; Master John Sullivan, the eighteenth century New Hampshire schoolmaster who fathered a Revolutionary War general and a governor, once noted that though he himself had lived too long, the rest of his branch of the Sullivan family had long been known for their short life span, few of them surviving much beyond the age of fifty. Curious as to whether this might be a Sullivan trait, I once examined a sample of seventy prominent nineteenth century American Sullivans, comparing their longevity with a comparable sample of Smiths. The distribution of age at death is shown in the graphs.
Evidently Sullivans two generations ago had a mean natural life span of 70 years (sigma=12) slightly exceeding the 67 year mean of their Anglo-AMerican counterparts.

1776: Studies French in Eighties
Master John Sullivan, now in his eighties, borrows a French grammar dictionary, and some French books from his son, General John, lately returned from Quebec, where he conducted an unsuccessful assault on the British. The retired schoolmaster claims that French may be useful to him some day. A few months later he writes an essay, in passable French, to his son.

1743: New Hampshire Wife Seeks Husband, Begs for Return
From the July 25, 1743 Boston Evening Post, following an advertisement for the return of "an escaped negro fellow, lusty, stout, and comely," the following: My dear and loving Husband,
--Your abrupt Departure from me, and forsaking of me your Wife and tender Babes, which I humble acknowledge and confess I was greatly if not wholly on the Occasion of, by my too rash and unadvised Speech and Behaviour towards you; for which I now in this publick Manner humbly ask your Forgiveness, and here-by promise upon your Return, to amend and reform, and by ny future loving and obedient Carriage towards you, endeavour to make an Atonement for my past evil Deeds, and manifest to you and the whole World that I am become a new Woman, and will prove to you a loving dutiful and tender wife.
If you do not regard what I have above written, I pray you to hearken to what you Pupil, Joshua Gilpatrick hath below sent you as also to the Lamentations and Cries of your poor Children, especially the eldest, who (tho' but seven Years old) all rational People really conclude, that unless you speedily return will end in his Death, and the moans of your other Children are enough to affect any humane heart....And why, my dear Husband, should a few angry and unkind Words, from an angry and fretful Wife (for which I am now paying full dear, having neither eat, drank nor slept in quiet, and am already reduced almost to a skeleton, that unless you favour me with your Company, will bereave me of my Life) make you thus to forsake me and your Children? How can you thus for so slender a Cause as a few rash words from a simple and weak Woman, chuse you to part from your tender Babes, who are your own Flesh and Blood? Pray meditate on what I now send, and reprieve you poor Wife and eldest Son (who take your Departure so heavily) from a lingering tho' certain Death, by your coming home to them again as speedily as you can, where you shall be kindly received, and in the most submissive Manner by your Wife, who is ready at your Desire, to lay her self at your Feet for her past Miscarriage and am with my and your Children's kind love to you, your loving Wife, Margery Sullivan
Summersworth, New-Hampshire. July 11, 1743
Little is known of how the family headed by the tall, patriarchal schoolmaster John Sullivan and his beautiful, vain, hot tempered wife got on in the pinched, gossipy atmosphere of a small New England town but it is clear that Sullivan, like Joseph Kennedy, supplemented whatever national ambitions his sons may have held with the basic skills necessary to cut figures in the military and political world at large. But if we consider some of his ex-patriot contemporaries John William with the Pretender Charles Stuart or Thomas, or Owen Roe, or xxx, a certain pattern emerges: linguists by tradition and necessity, did acts of a priestly cast, they left skulking about their native lands to make their fortunes in the world. Penniless outsiders, their service could be as well described as talk and bluff as by the usual praise of honest service as tutors, masters, keepers of difficult young boys and girls. True, as often as not they might be prey to certain hazards of that role, leaving town hastily followed by the threats of some family.
The dangers of the Irish schoolmaster were labor to be proclaimed by English writers including Thackery, Meredity, and Frocede. In advancing the boys' careers, Master John's change of name and religion doubtless proved advantageous -- his freedom was said to have been bought by a local clergyman. In Puritan New England where, according to historian David Doyle, "papery, Irishmen, continental monarchies, Frenchmen, Spaniards, and servility were all linked in a grand arc of witchcraft threatening the fail light of liberty and pure religion."
Master John's change of name and religion were doubtless prudent steps toward acceptance. Whether the family ever achieved genuine acceptance whatever that may have meant in those functions times, in the town is another matter --
Master John's inclination toward idleness, peripatetic scholarly interests, his noticeable arguments with his wife -- once when John was three his father refused to come home from Boston until his mother apologized for her "rash and unadvised Speech and Behavior." The tall, patriarchal schoolmaster may have changed his name from the Gaelic Owen to the English John, from the Irish O'Sullivan to the vaguely continental Sulevan, his religion from Catholicism to Anglicism, have let it be known that his redemption had been purchased by a protestant clergyman; but just how effective these disguises may have been in offsetting certain suspicious signs -- a facility in Latin, eccentric and purposeless scholarly curiosity, and a domestic life that featured fiery outbursts of temper from his beautiful Cork-born wife and occasional disappearances to Boston by the Master himself. For none of this behavior would pass unnoticed in a village where Puritan suspicions and horror of idleness prevailed, and it is of credit to Master Sullivan that he managed to find an important role for his character and moreover provide, in that forlorn little mill town, intellectual and sustenance to his spirited sons that would launch them into international prominence.
Exactly how Master Sullivan, the loquacious schoolmaster, fond of big words and ideas, spouting fancy phrases, tinged with a vague irreverence related to his neighbors we can only speculate. But we may presume that the elder Sullivan, arriving at Berwich with his child wife whom he had, they said, paid for in xx, may have been viewed as a barbarian and a scholar, a wild Irishman, and though he might fashion himself the intellectual of the icy little village of Durham, was he not at heart a barbarian, and when in the frosty nights of November the good townsmen heard his spoiled sons, John and James and Benjamin, stumbling through the town, shouting and hooting, with their swaggering Latinisms, it was, they dimly perceived, as if those same Gaelic chieftains had risen from their graves once again to curse the lives and marry the daughters of civil men.

1. John Sullivan #7089 b. 17 Jun 1690, Limerick, Limerick, Ireland, occ: Farmer and Schoolmaster, m. ABT __ ___ 1735, Margery Browne #7090, b. __ ___ 1714, Cork, Cork, Ireland, d. __ ___ 1801, Berwick, York, ME, bur: Durham, Strafford, NH. John died 20 Jun 1795, Berwick, York, ME, bur: Durham, Strafford, NH.
He and Margery came from Ireland to Berwick, Maine, about 1723. The family claims direct descent from the Sullivan whose name was taken by the Sept of Sullivan and hence, from the fourteenth King of Munster.
John and Margery are buried in the Sullivan burial ground.
See NH Historical Society Proceedings, Vol. 4 article of Major Sullivan by Mr. John Scales. He signed a petition in favor of John Smith, 3d, in Durham (NH Town Papers, 11:591).
History of Newfields, New Hampshire, 1638-1911", Rev. James Hill Fitts, Concord, New Hampshire, 1912, p. 542, John Sullivan was of Somersworth when daughter Mary married Theophilus Hardy.
The John Sullivan mentioned here probably is a son or grandson:
Arthur Rogers was the son of the famous Ranger and was probably quite well educated. He studied for the bar with John Sullivan of Durham, and with his cousin, Edward St. Loe Livermore of Concord, in which town he opened an office in 1793. (see The Bench and Bar of New Hampshire).

Second Generation
2. Mary Sullivan #7085 (1.John1) b. __ ___ 1752, m. 04 May 1768, in Berwick, York, ME, Theophilus Hardy, Jr. #7084, b. __ ___ 1748, (son of Theophilus Hardy #7252 and Love (Hardy) #7253) occ: Felt Maker and Lawyer, d. __ ___ 1778. Mary died __ ___ 1827, Strafford, Strafford, NH. She and Theophilus were married by Rev. Matthew Merriam (Early Marriages of Strafford County, p. 439). She was teaching in 1812. Mary rented the front room in the old school house, between the Runlett and Griffin houses, and this was called the "girls room". Here she lived, cooked in the open fireplace, and taught ("History of the Town of Durham", p. 261). Theophilus:
Authorities disagree as to the parentage of this Theophilus Hardy. Doctor Edwin A. Hardy of Toronto, Canada, who has done a great deal of research work in connection with his family, has become convinced that the father of Theophilus Hardy, Jr., was a son of Theophilus and Sarah (Follet) Hardy of Durham, New Hampshire (Hardy & Hardie, p. 358). There are conflicting evidences and it is equally possible that Theophilus Hardy, Jr., was the son of another Theophilus Hardy, who came to this country about 1720.
Theophilus Hardy was mentioned as a kinsman in the will of Biley Dudley, dated January 24, 1723 and probated July 4, 1728. He was a witness in 1768 (History of Newfields, New Hampshire 1638-1911, Rev. James Hill Fitts, Concord, New Hampshire, 1912, page 542).
Theophilus, Jr. was a minor child when his parents died. Theophilus Hardy of Durham made bond with John Sullivan of Durham and Walter Bryent, Jr. of Newmarket as sureties, for payment of their shares to Mary Hardy, Sarah Hardy, Love Hardy and Nathaniel Hardy, July 26, 1769. So he must have become an adult by this time. John Sullivan was his father-in-law. This proves that he was the son of Theophilus and Love Hardy of Durham.
Theophilus Hardy, Jr. lived in Durham, New Hampshire. He was a soldier in the Revolutionary War and served under his brother-in-law, Major-General John Sullivan, who was President (Convener) of New Hampshire and a lawyer at Durham, New Hampshire. They lived near Gen. John Sullivan, her brother.
Theophilus Hardy was in camp at Sewall's Point, September 26, 1775, on the Exeter river, (NH Town Papers, 15:748).
Theophilus Hardy served in Capt. John Hill's Company in Col. Joshua Wingate's Regiment, which joined the Continental Army in Rhode Island in 1778 (NH Town Papers, 15:578).
He signed various petitions in 1786 and 1792? as a resident of the town of Durham (NH Town Papers, 11:A-F).

Muskerry, Donogh, was afterwards Earl of Clancarthy, and died in 1666. The father of Phillip, Daniel, is said to have married Margaret, daughter of the Earl of Clancarthy, who died in 1640, and who married Margaret, daughter of Donogh, 4th Earl of Thomond. The father of this Daniel is described in the letter as of Ardea Castle, and is therein said to have married a daughter of the Earl of Thomond. Two persons named Sarah O’Brien, of that family, according to Lodge, married in the sixteenth century O’Sullivans Beare. One, a granddaughter of the first Earl of Thomond, married as before stated, Donnel, 13th Lord of Bearehaven; the other a daughter of Viscount Clare of the same family, may have married said Donnel’s brother, Sir Phillip, of Ardea, but more likely one of his sons. The above statement stands the test of comparison of dates, and the aged gentleman on whose information we rely was no doubt substantially correct.
What part the family of Ardea took in the Catholic War or subsequent strife under Cromwell in defence of their property and religious rights, does not appear. O’Sullivan More lost a large portion of his territiories in the latter period. In 1653, he was in Paris with O’Sullivan Beare from Spain, making preparation for a descent on Munster, as mentioned above, with money furnished through the French King. From 1660, when Charles II was restored, all branches of the race enjoyed a brief respite of quiet and prosperity, but taking part with James the II against William of Orange, they were proscribed and banished. Major Phillip was with the garrison of Limerick, that, after a stubborn resistance, surrendered in 1691.
By the terms of surrender, such of the Catholics as were unwilling to abandon their religion and take unconditional oaths of allegiance to the English government, were to be furnished with transportation to France; and amongst those who preferred poverty and exile to this humiliation, was Major Phillip. He had married Joanna, daughter of Dermod McCarthy More, descended from the Earl of Clancarre who died in 1596, by Ellen daughter of McCarthy Reagh and Elinor, daughter of Lord Muskerry, who thus untied in her person the three principal branches of McCarthy More, Reagh, and Muskerry. Their property was confiscated, and they were reduced to poverty. The date of his death from the wound received in a duel in France, as mentioned by his son, is not known. He appears to have left two sons besides the subject of this notice, who was born on the seventeenth of June 1690, at Ardea, in the county of Kerry.
Little is known of his education. From its extent and thoroughness it was probably at some one of the seminaries on the continent, where his family in their prosperity had endowed, as was customary in those days, scholarships for the benefit of its members. He returned to Ireland to find even the terms of the surrender disregarded, and entered upon life under many discouragements. His original destination was for the priesthood, but this appears to have been early abandoned. Different traditions have been handed down with regard to his coming to America, but that which connects him with the effort to restore the Stuarts after the death of Queen Ann would seem the
Note: Clancarthy. Donogh, his son, the third Earl, married Elizabeth Spencer, daughter of the Earl of Sunderland, and becoming involved in the ruin of the Stuarts, was forced into exile and lived on the Continent.

Most probable. The first in 1716, was soon suppressed. Another in 1721, under the lead of the Duke of Ormond, was equally unfortunate, and it was in 1723 that he left his native land.
Seeking a retreat from calamities and persecutions that environed him at home, he came over the sea, trusting to find in the rapid development of our newly settled country, then as now the refuge of the unfortunate, opportunities to acquire independence. He brought with him the advantages of a good education, and had not been long in America before the circumstance that he was a good mathematician and acquainted with several languages besides his own, attracted the attention of an estimable clergyman of the period, of the name of Dr. Moody, who immediately took measures to his being engaged as a teacher. This to an advanced period of life continued his principal vocation, and several generations of the youth of a large section of country on the borders of Maine and New Hampshire grew into life, prepared for its duties by a training, which, according to the traditions of the neighborhood, was not confined to the ordinary rudiments of grammar and arithmetic, but partook in a degree of the varied and substantial accomplishments of his own.
The farm which he occupied consisted of nearly eighty acres of land, in South Berwick, on the bank of the river opposite Great Falls, now a large and thriving manufacturing village. When he established himself, more than a century ago, in this beautiful spot, there were saw-mills on the streams, but all else was wild or rural, the primeval forest having been but partially encroached upon by the fields and pastures of recent settlers. Nothing now remains of the dwelling where he resided sixty years, but some slight excavations, with a portion of the cellar walls. The barn was destroyed by fire about seven years since. His tomb and monument, surrounded by an iron fence, erected by his descendants, Governor Wells and others, stand in good preservation, not far from the bridge to Great Falls, on the farm near his former abode, a usage which has been long customary in sparsely peopled parts of New England.
In an obituary notice in the Oracle of the Day, printed at Portsmouth, N.H., dated June 22d, 1795, he is stated to have died “on Saturday, the twentieth of that month, at Berwick, at the age of one hundred and five years and three days. This respected and extraordinary character was employed till he was ninety in teaching public or private schools, and perhaps few persons ever diffused so much useful learning. At this advanced age he retired, lamenting that he could no longer be beneficial to mankind. He wrote a good hand till he was one hundred and two,” and is said, after he had reached that age, to have occasionally ridden in the saddle from Berwick to Durham, thirty miles as the roads then were, to visit his son, General Sullivan, and to have returned the same day. “His chief amusement, until the last year of his life, was reading, at which time he almost totally lost his eye-sight. This he called the most afflicting stroke he ever met with. Worn down with the weight of years, and cut off from his favorite amusement, he seemed desirous to meet his approaching dissolution. He was a stranger to pain till within a few months of his death. He bore its infliction with becoming resignation, giving such evidence to all he conversed with of his belief in the Christian religion, and such confidence in a well-grounded hope of future happiness, as

made his transit appear more to be wished than dreaded. He continued to converse sensibly till seven days before his death, when his speech failed him. After this, he seemed to take but little notice of anything that passed; in an apparent state of devotion, buoyed up above every fear, and apparently insensible to pain, he met the king of terrors with a fortitude that must have appeared surprising to a person who had not experienced the happiness of a well-grounded hope. Apparently sensible to the last moment, he closed his eyes without a sigh or groan.
“His integrity, uprightness in his dealings, his benevolence and hospitality, together with his instructive conversation and desire to be useful to mankind, insured him the veneration and esteem of all that knew him.”
Mrs Sullivan had come with him to this country as a child, and when she grew up to womanhood became his wife. If the tradition be true that her name was Margaret Browne, she may possibly have been of a family with which his own had been repeatedly connected in marriage - that of Kenmare. The representative of that family, compromised by adherence to the Stuarts, was a the time in exile and poverty. She possessed great personal beauty and force of character, and to her influence as well as to that of their father may be ascribed the energy and vigor which made their children distinguished. She survived him several years, dying in 1801, at the age of eighty-severn.
The children of Master Sullivan were -
Benjamin, an officer in the British Navy. He was lost at sea, some years before the separation of the colonies from the mother country.
Daniel, born about 1738, married Miss Bean, and established himself, in 1765, at the head of Frenchman’s Bay, in Maine, at what is now a flourishing seaport deriving from him the name of Sullivan. He erected several mills, built vessels, and was prosperous. In the Revolutionary war he was energetic and devoted, raising and commanding a force of minute men, and by his activity and fearlessness did good service to the cause. In 1779, he was with his company at the siege of Castine, and after returning home he kept them in readiness for action, inflicting many heavy blows upon the enemy. The English and tories made several attempts to capture him, which were ineffectual, from the constant vigilance of the patriots. But one stormy night in February, 1781, a British war vessel anchored below the town, and landed a large force of sailors and marines. The house was silently invested, and Captain Sullivan, aroused from his slumbers, found his bed surrounded by armed men. He was hurried to the boat, and his dwelling fired so suddenly that the children were with difficulty saved by their mother and the hired man who lived in the family. Take to Castine, his liberty and further protection from harm were tendered him, on condition he took the oath of allegiance to the king. Rejecting these proposals, he was carried prisoner to New York, and confined in that dreadful hulk, the Jersey prison ship, which has been paralleled in our day by Belle Isle and Andersonville. Here the pestilence, engendered by confinement and the tender mercies of Provost Cunningham, did its work, and he died in April, 1782.. His only son James married Miss Preble, but left no

3 PREFACE
In the entire field of American bibliography there is, perhaps, at the present time, no single subject of more interest to so great a number of people in the United States as genealogy. This is demonstrated by the numerous lists of manuscripts and printed books upon the subject. In itself this fact is not remarkable, except for the further fact that genealogy has taken its place in American bibliography, within the present generation.
From the first English settlement in America, at Jamestown, in 1607, and that of the Pilgrims, at Plymouth, in 1620, excepting in family Bible records and a few manuscripts, genealogical history was a blank, so far as printed records are concerned, until 1771. In that year, what is believed to have beep the first American family genealogy was printed at Hartford, Conn. Its title page reads: "Genealogy of the Family of Mr. Samuel Stebbins, and His Wife, From the Year 1707 to the Year 1771." In 1829, Farmer's "A Genealogical Register of the First Settlers of New England," the first collected work in genealogy in America, was published. In 1844, James Savage, LL.D. (1784-1873), eminent as a historian and antiquarian, and president of the Massachusetts Historical Society, perceiving the great value of Farmer's register to future generations, undertook the compilation of "The Genealogical Dictionary of the First Settlers of New England," and published it in four volumes, 1860-1864. This work of Savage's is
still regarded as the authority on early New England genealogy and is the distinguishing mark of the first epoch in American genealogy. Savage may be said to have been the father of American genealogy.
Subsequent to the American Revolution, the War of 1812, and the Mexican War, the first three patriotic societies were formed: The Society of the Cincinnati, in 1783; the Society of the War of 1812, in 1814, and the Aztec Club of 1847, in 1847. These organizations kept aflame the patriotic spirit which is the soul of American genealogy.

Subject: General Sullivan
Clearly, some of the most conspicuos and distinguished of our family are the Sullivans of New England. Patriarch of the family was Owen Sullivan, born circa 1714 in Limerick. Apparently nursing a great personal hurt, he left the nation swearing that he was going where they should never see or hear from him again, and they never did. He secured passage on a ship bound for America where he became a schoolteacher and farmer in a frontier town in Maine. He later married Cork-born Margery Browne, whom he had met on the voyage over. In 1796 the family received a letter from Ireland inquiring about relationship. The letter was received in 1796 from Philip O Sullivan.
"Sir, A grand Uncle of myne having gone to America about sixty years back or something over, whose relations suffered greatly by being without the means of finding out his doom, till now that by great look I am inform’d you are a son of his. If you find by the under acc that I have not been misinformed, I submissively expect you’ll let me know hyow you and the rest of his Children are. I am , S. yours, Respectfully, Philip O Sullivan, Ardea, May 16, 1796. An exact copy of his reply reads,: "I am the son of Major Philip O Sullivan of Ardea in the County of Kerrey and Parish of thouougaisty by the River of Kilmare and Barony of Glanorough in said County. His father was called Owen O Sullivan, originally Descendant from the second son of Daniel O Sullivan called Lord of (sic) Beer Heaven. He married with Mary MacSweney, Daughter of Col. Owen MacSweney of Musgrey, and sister to Capt. Edmond MacSweney, a noted man for anecdotes and witty syings. I heard often tell that my Grandfather had four Countesses to his Mothers and Grandmothers. How true that was or who they were I know not. My father died as they told me of an ulcer raised in his breast occasioned by a wound he received in France where he fought a duel with a French officer, and when he wounded his antigonist (sic) another run’d a sword through his back so that the point appeared at his breast. They were all a short lived family, they either died in the bloom or went out of the Nation. I never heard of any of the men kind to arrive at sixty and don’t remember but of one to be a live when I left the Nation. My mother’s name was Joane McCarthy, daughter to Dermod McCarthy of Killowen. She had three brothers and one sister, her mother’s name I forget but that she was Daughter to MacCarthy Reak of Carbery. Her oldest brother Col. Florence alas Mac finnin. He and his two brothers Capt. Charles and Capt. Owen went in the defence of the nation against Orange. Owen was killed in the battle of Aughrim (July 12, 1691). Florence had a son who retains the title of Mac finnin. Charles I just remember he had a charge of powder in his face at the Siege of Cork. He left two sons, Derby and Owen. Derby married with Ellina Sullivan of the Sullivans of Bannabe; his brother Owen married to Honora Mahony, daughter to Dinish Mahony of Droummere in the Barony of Dunkerrane or Cappenecussiss. He also died in the prime of life much lamented. They were short lived on both sides. but the brevity of their lives, to my great grief and sorrow, is added to the length of mine. My mother’s sister was married to Dermod O Sullivan, eldest son of Daniel O Sullivan, Lord of Dunkerane. Her son Cornelius, as I understand, was with the pretender in Scotland in the year 1745. That is all that I can say about my origin. But I shall conclude with a Latin sentence which occured to my mind at the conclusion of this genealogical narration." Owen lived to be 105 years old. It is written that in his later years he learned French. He was apparently quite functional physically and mentally up to the year before his death. He regularly saddled his own horse and rode the twenty five miles to visit his son John.
His son John was a three-time governor and was appointed a Major General of the Continental, lived in a house at 2 Newmarket Rd that was built in 1740. On Decembe 13, 1774, when Paul Revere announced "The British are coming", the Sons of Liberty made plans to attack and secure the stocked mmunition from the fort of William and Mary in the harbor of Portsmouth, New Hampshire. Captaining the fort was John Cochran. Governor John Wentworth ordered its defense. By 3:00pm the following day four hundred patriots approached the fort. A shot was fired from within but before anything else could be done the fort was taken. One hundred barrels of gunpowder were taken. The following day Captain Langdon and Major John Sullivan retured with seventy men and removed cannons, muskets and other supplies. On January 6, 1776 the sons of Liberfty issued their own declaration of independence, a full six months before the official one.
On April 19, 1776, the commander of British forces in America, Lieutenant General Thomas Gage, ordered his troops to confiscate a store of gunpowder allegedly stockpiled by the rebels at Lexington and Concord. During a confrontation there were casualties. The British retreated back to Charlestown and by that time they suffered two hundred and seventy-three casualties. The following June the Iroquis league of Indians voted amongst themselves to fight the Americans on behalf of the English.
ON August 27, 1776, under the command of Major General Putnam at the Battle of Long Island, Sullivan was taken prisoner. He was taken aboard the "Eagle", the flagship of Lord Howe, the British Admiral. As was the pratice in those times, he was exchanged for another British officer of the same rank, General Richard Prescott. He rejoined Washington at Westchester.
On Christmas Day, 1776, he was engaged in the Battle of Trenton, leading the left. He wintered at Valley Forge with Washington and the patriot Army, most of who were barefoot and without blankets. The following campaign season found him at the Battle of Brandywine, September, Admission is free. Telephone is (607) 939-1352.

Pages 171 - 174
Governor James Sullivan
James Sullivan was a most ardent and distinguished patriot of the American Revolution, and he was equally noted for a his masterly ability as a lawyer, statesman, and orator. His father, John Sullivan, was an Irish schoolmaster, who had emigrated from Kerry or, as some say, Limerick, Ireland, to the Colonies, and settled in Berwick, Me., in 1723, and liveed to see his two son, James - the Governor of Massachusetts - and John, become distinguished among their fellow-countrymen, dying at the patriarchal age of one hundred and five years.
James was born in Maine, April 22, 1744, and was educated by his father, who taught school for many years in Berwick. The principles of self-government and the right of the colonists, as free-men, to resist the imposition of taxes other than those which were imposed by themselves and for their own benefit, were taught him, and deeply impressed on his young mind.
Nearly all the settlers in those days had farms, and James was wont to assist his father on his farm, which developed his muscular strength. One day, while felling a tree, he accidentally injured his leg, which left one limb shorter than the other.
The weakness of his leg precluded hard manual labor, and he commenced the study of law and was admitted to the bar. He quickly attached attention and practice. He was an uncompromising opponent to taxation without representation, and made a firm stand against the claims of the home government.
He entered into the cause of American freedom heart and soul as the critical moment approached to strike a blow for liberty. In 1776 he was a member of the Provincial Congress, and held the leading position of a judge of the Superior Court of his State. He organized troops for State and national defence, but his lameness prevented him for assuming command, which his generous spirit would have gladly accepted were it not for that misfortune. He was a member of the Continental Congress in 1782, also a member of the Executive Council and Judge of Probate. When Maine was separated from Massachusetts he took up his residence in the latter.
He was elected to Congress from Massachusetts in 1788. He became Attorney-General of that State in 1790, and while in that position projected the Middlesex Canal, and wrote the “History of the District of Maine,” which the Legislature ordered to be published. He was elected Governor of Massachusetts in 1807, and re-elected in 1808, in which year he died. His son, Hon. William Sullivan, was an eminent jurist and scholar, and wrote many valuable works. He was a member of the Legislature of Massachusetts for nearly twenty-six years, and died in 1839.
The mother of General Sullivan was a woman of great energy and spirit. There is a story told of a visit which she paid to her distinguished son when he was Governor of New Hampshire, and had as a guest his brother John. The servant, not knowing her, replied that she could not see the Governor - he was engaged. “But I must see him,” said the old lady, - “Then, madam, you will please to wait in the ante-room.” - “Tell you master,” said she, sweeping out of the hall, “that the mother of two of the greatest men in America will not wait in any one’s ante-room.” The Governor having called his servant, on hearing the report said to his brother. “James, let us run after her; it’s my mother for certain.” Accordingly the two governors sallied out, and soon overtook and made their peace with the indignant but easily mollified lady.
As a lawyer, Gov. James Sullivan ranked among the very first, and he was retained in the most important cases which were within the jurisdiction of the courts of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts at that time. A proof of his ability is manifested in his success over his able opponents who were the legal luminaries of his day. They were such men as Dexter, Otis, Dana, and Parsons, to none of whom he was second. He had a commanding presence and dignity; deep thought shone from his fine, expressive face. His distinguishing characteristics of mind were force, comprehensiveness, and repressed, but intense ardor; nothing escaped the piercing intensity of his scrutiny. His arguments were clear, close, pointed, and forcible, and always directed towards pertinent results, - no verbosity or claptrap for admiration, but aimed to secure conviction. Although he seldom summoned up his pathetic powers, he did not lack this characteristic of his race, for it is said that when he adopted pathos it proved as intense and irresistible as his other masterly qualities. Among the works which he left are “A History of the District of Maine,” “A Dissertation on Bank” and on the “Durability of States,” “History of Land Titles in Massachusetts,” “The Constitutional Liberty of the Press,” “History of the Penobscot Indians,” etc. He was a man of solid and extensive acquirements, and was honored by one of the great seats of learning with the degree of L.L.D. Some of his descendants are among living Bostonians.

Made his transit appear more to be wished than dreaded. He continued to converse sensibly till seven days before his death, when his speech failed him. After this, he seemed to take but little notice of anything that passed; in an apparent state of devotion, buoyed up above every fear, and apparently insensible to pain, he met the king of terrors with a fortitude that must have appeared surprising to a person who had not experienced the happiness of a well-grounded hope. Apparently sensible to the last moment, he closed his eyes without a sigh or groan.
“His integrity, uprightness in his dealings, his benevolence and hospitality, together with his instructive conversation and desire to be useful to mankind, insured him the veneration and esteem of all that knew him.”
Mrs Sullivan had come with him to this country as a child, and when she grew up to womanhood became his wife. If the tradition be true that her name was Margaret Browne, she may possibly have been of a family with which his own had been repeatedly connected in marriage - that of Kenmare. The representative of that family, compromised by adherence to the Stuarts, was a the time in exile and poverty. She possessed great personal beauty and force of character, and to her influence as well as to that of their father may be ascribed the energy and vigor which made their children distinguished. She survived him several years, dying in 1801, at the age of eighty-severn.
The children of Master Sullivan were -
Benjamin, an officer in the British Navy. He was lost at sea, some years before the separation of the colonies from the mother country.
Daniel, born about 1738, married Miss Bean, and established himself, in 1765, at the head of Frenchman’s Bay, in Maine, at what is now a flourishing seaport deriving from him the name of Sullivan. He erected several mills, built vessels, and was prosperous. In the Revolutionary war he was energetic and devoted, raising and commanding a force of minute men, and by his activity and fearlessness did good service to the cause. In 1779, he was with his company at the siege of Castine, and after returning home he kept them in readiness for action, inflicting many heavy blows upon the enemy. The English and tories made several attempts to capture him, which were ineffectual, from the constant vigilance of the patriots. But one stormy night in February, 1781, a British war vessel anchored below the town, and landed a large force of sailors and marines. The house was silently invested, and Captain Sullivan, aroused from his slumbers, found his bed surrounded by armed men. He was hurried to the boat, and his dwelling fired so suddenly that the children were with difficulty saved by their mother and the hired man who lived in the family. Take to Castine, his liberty and further protection from harm were tendered him, on condition he took the oath of allegiance to the king. Rejecting these proposals, he was carried prisoner to New York, and confined in that dreadful hulk, the Jersey prison ship, which has been paralleled in our day by Belle Isle and Andersonville. Here the pestilence, engendered by confinement and the tender mercies of Provost Cunningham, did its work, and he died in April, 1782.. His only son James married Miss Preble, but left no

Undoubtedly, as much of the ashes of the Sullivans will always remain in the original lot on Winslow Street, as was removed to Durham, N. H. where the original inscription still reads as follows:
Here are buried the Bodies of John Sullivan & Margery his wife. He was born in Limeric in Ireland
in the year 1692, & died in the year 1796. She was born in Cork in Ireland in the year 1714 &
died in 1801.
This marble is placed to their memory by their son James Sullivan.
As James Sullivan died in 1808, while serving as governor of Massachusetts, which then included
Maine, this stone must have been set in the yard at Berwick before that date.
Some local patriotic society, in conjunction with the Berwick schools, should endeavor to perpetuate
these locations.
The scheme of the four alphabetical lists which follow is simple. The first section includes outlying
burial grounds. The numbers in parentheses give the situations of the graves. The other three sections cover the other three public cemeteries. The whole is complete to the year 1923.

James Sullivan
(BY JOHN FRANCIS SPRAGUE.)
There appears to be ample authority to substantiate the claim that the Sullivans of Maine descended from the O'Sullivans of ancient Ireland.
They were a powerful septa, who dwelt in the southerly part of Ireland and are now extensively multiplied on both sides of theAtlantic.
Many of them have acquired fame in all fields of American activities.
In common with other Milesian families, they trace their origin to a remote period in Irish history.
The bards and chieftains of the ancient Irish preserved their national annals from the beginning of organized government under the sons of Heber down to the days of anarchy and confusion
resulting from English invasion.
Irish historians assert that it is a well authenticated fact that under Queen Elizabeth, one measure adopted for the more perfect subjection of Ireland was an order to collect from the national
and private repositories these records, that by gradually weaken- ing, through their destruction, the spirit of clanship, the land might become an easier prey to the spoiler.
Fortunately, however, this order was only partially obeyed and in many of the ancient chronicles, or psalters which escaped this authorized vandalism frequent mention is made of the O'Sullivans,
and their chieftains.
For centuries prior to 1170 when the English invasion first began upon its shores, Ireland had been as highly civilized as any part of western Europe. During those times and to a more recent date the O'Sullivans, who were hereditary princes, possessed large tracts of lands in the Province of Munster, and along the shores of the Bay of Bantry and around the beautiful and celebrated Lakes of Killarney.
Their chieftains exercised an independent sovereignty and their domains for a long time remaining unmolested by the invaders they lived more peaceful lives than some of the neighboring clans.
But the power of the conquerors increased with each successive century until the brave O'Sullivans early in the seventeenth cen- tury were with the rest of the Irish nation prostrated by ruin and
devastation. To follow the vicissitudes of this once powerful clan to the time when John Sullivan left Limerick in Ireland and sailed for America would be a recital of one of the darkest chapters in the history of Great Britain. This was in the year 1723. Exactly what his destination was is not now known. The ship in which he sailed was driven by adverse winds on to the Maine coast and he landed in York.
0n this stormy voyage was the beginning of an interesting romance. On the vessel was a pretty and attractive child named Margery Brown, then only nine years of age. The circumstances
of her parents emigrating to America may never be known as it appears that they were lost at sea.
John Sullivan, when far advanced in years, wrote out and left with his family the following statement:
I am the son of Major Philip O'Sullivan, of Ardea, in the county of Kerry. His father was Owen O'Sullivan, original descendant from the second son of Daniel O'Sullivan, called lord of Bearehaven. He married Mary, daughter of Colonel Owen McSweeney of Musgrey, and sister to Captain Edmond McSweeney, a noted man for anecdotes and witty sayings. I have heard that my grandfather had four countesses for his mother and grandmothers. How true it was, or who they were, I know not. My father died of an ulcer raised in his breast, occasioned by a wound he received in France, in a duel with a French officer. They were all a short lived family; they either died in their bloom or went out of the country I never heard that any of the men-kind arrived at sixty, and do not remem-
ber but one alive when I left home My mother's name was Toan McCar- thy, daughter of Dermod McCarthy of Killoween. She had three brothers and one sister. Her mother's name I forget, but that she was daughter to McCarthy Reagh, of Carbery. Her oldest brother, Col. Florence, alias
McFinnin, and [its two brothers, Captain Charles and Captain Owen, went in the defence of the nation against Orange. Owen was killed in the battle of Aughrim. Florence had a son, who retains the title of McFinnin. Charles I just remember. He had a charge of powder in his face at the
siege of Cork. He left two sons, Derby and Owen. Derby married with Ellena Sullivan, of the Sullivans of Bannane. His brother Owen married Honora Mahony, daughter of Dennis Mahony, of Drommore, in the bar- ony of Dunkerron, and also died in the prime of life, much lamented.
They were short-lived on both sides; but the brevity of their lives, to my great grief and sorrow, is added to the length of mine. My mother's sister was married to Dermod, eldest son of Daniel O'Sullivan, lord of Dunkerron. Her son Cornelius, as I understand, was with the Pretender
in Scotland, in the year 1745. This is all that I can say about my origin.
It is a well authenticated tradition that he left his home by rea-son of his mother violently opposing his union with a certain young lady that ;he was deeply attached to.
Although his mother was a woman of wealth and high standing in Limerick he was nearly penniless when he left home and entered into an agreement with the master of the vessel to work for him
after his arrival, to pay his passage to America. Unaccustomed to labor he applied to Parson Moody, of York, whom he had been informed was a man of benevolence, for aid. The interview
resulted in his obtaining a loan of money from Moody and can-celing his obligation to the captain.
John was well educated and tinder the advice of Parson Moody and some of his friends he opened a school at Berwick and became successful school teacher in York County.
He sympathized with his little friend, Margery, who had been indentured in accordance with the colonial custom of providing for distressed children. As soon as his earnings would permit he
redeemed her from indenture and adopted her and brought her up and educated her as his own child. When she had reached the period of maidenhood she is said to have possessed unusual charms and attractions.
One day, while drawing water with the old well-sweep, a young man, clad in city attire, came by and engaged her in conversation. Fascinated by her charms. he then and there proposed marriage
She referred him to her father. The lover stated his case to Mr. Sullivan. He consulted Margery who frankly admitted that she had been a little coquettish with the good looking youth, but much
to his joy, he assured him that she had no thought of anything serious. But the circumstance revealed to him his own sentiment towards her, which he had discovered was other than paternal.
Her foster father made known his love. It was mutual and although he was twenty years her senior, so far as any records or evidence of the matter is now accessible it was a happy union.
He soon after purchased a farm in Berwick, to which he devoted his attention when not engaged in teaching. Much of the time he had two schools under his charge.
He has been described as "a marked man in his personal appear- ance, of great natural abilities and mental cultivation."
He was reared in the faith of the Catholic church. Amory (1) asserts that he did not attend religious services in the neighbor- hood where there were only Protestant churches, and for that reason "it has been conjectured Master Sullivan kept steadfast to the faith of his childhood."
He lived to the venerable age of 105 years and was beloved and respected by all who knew him.
Writers have portrayed his wife as an excellent woman of great energy and firmness of character.
Amory (supra) says: " Her sons very probably inherited largely from her the ambition and industry that made them useful and dis-tinguished."

His son John was rather famous. "Born in Limerick in 1690, Master Sullivan apparently was christened Owen, retaining that name until after he came to America. Evidently he benefitted from a good education, perhaps received on the continent, for he spoke French and reportedly was a linguist of some talent. Why he came to America remains somewhat obscure, although there is reason to believe that he argued with his mother, who opposed his marrying beneath his station.
Master Sullivan, though loath to work with his hands, soon fulfilled his obligations as a redemptioner; tradition says he persuaded a clergyman to buy his freedom for him. He soon married Margery Brown (Browne), who had been born in Cork in 1714. They settled in Summersworth, most likely by January, 1737, and that parish hired him as schoolmaster in 1738. There were many children in the Sullivan family. "
"In 1747 or 1748 Master Sullivan moved his family across the river to Berwick, Maine. There in that rustic community, the tall schoolmaster became a patriarchal figure. Somewhat of a scholar, possibly even an idler, Master Sullivan supervised the upbringing and education of his children, two of whom, John and James, were to go far. His wife was noted for her beauty, vanity, and violent temper. Indeed she must have been a termagant, for earlier, in 1743, her husband sought asylum in Boston or its environs and returned home only after his wife had apologized for her 'rash and unadvised Speech and Behaviour'."from A General of the Revolution John Sullivan of New Hampshire by Charles P. Whittemore.

Ann LeCompte
From: Barbara Stoddard
To: Angie Sullivan
Date: 3/28/03 12:26:10 AM
Subject: Ann LeCompte
Dear Angie, From the two genealogies you sent me and the searching I did in FamilySearch & Ancestry.com this evening it appears we have Ann listed as the child of the wrong Philemon Le Compte. None of them show documentation but they are consistent and from different lines. It appears Philemon LeCompte and Mary Seward did not have a daughter Ann. What is your conclusion? The birth dates are all estimated so they vary quite a bit in some cases.
I am also wondering if Ann LeCompte's children are all Owens with Phillips and Cook being married names of the daughters. I am not ready to change that yet though but I am making a note of the possibility. I wonder what the original source is for the children's names. So many unknowns.
Most of my research lately has been in the 19th century tying up loss ends and compiling histories. I have not done any serious research in the colonial records. Thank you for sharing your finds. I will adjust (change) my records in accordance with the genealogies you sent. That makes Ann the daughter of Philemon LeCompte and Mary Hatfield. She has 8 brothers and sisters. It also adds Powell and Gary names to our pedigree. It is so wonderful being able to communicate, search and share so easily. We are spoiled but that makes it possible to forward this work more quickly. Thank you so much for the corrections and additions. Love, Barbara

Joseph Ruffner
The first child was born on September 25, 1740. He married Ann Hiestand [or Heistand] on May 22, 1764. Ann was born on October 15, 1742, a daughter of Henry Hiestand.
Joseph and Ann settled and lived at what is now Mundellsville, close to Luray. At this location, Joseph built and owned the first mill on this site. The original Willow Grove Mills was destroyed by fire. Today on this site there is a mill of the same name, which was constructed in the 19th century.
Various accounts tell us Joseph was a very successful farmer and businessman who traveled far and wide buying and selling. Original receipts indicate he did a lot of trading in Fredericksburg, which required him to go east over the Blue Ridge Mountains with his wagonloads of goods. These same receipts indicate he dealt on numerous occasions in very large quantities of trade goods and money. For thirty years he and his family prospered as he pursued his farming, raising his livestock, and crossing the countryside with his wagons filled for trading.
About 1794 after a fire destroyed a barn containing much grain and many of his animals, Joseph set out on a journey along the upper James River in search of iron ore. On this fateful journey, he met and traveled for a time with Colonel Dickerson from Point Pleasant. After hearing the Colonel talk so glowingly about the buffalo salt licks on the Kanawha River and the prospects of producing salt on the western frontier, Joseph bought the Colonel’s land containing the salt licks without seeing it. For the 502 acres of land, he paid 500 pounds plus future considerations if producing the salt proved to be profitable.
In the spring of 1795, Joseph made a journey by horseback to inspect the land he had bought. Upon his arrival in the Kanawha Valley, he was so impressed by the lands of the river bottom he bought all he could obtain. The thousand or so acres he acquired included the log structures of Fort Lee, all of the unsold lots of the young town, and all the bottomland surrounding the Fort. This land covered most of what is today known as Charleston, West Virginia.
Upon his return to the Shenandoah Valley, he sold all his lands there and in the latter part of 1795 moved his entire family to the Kanawha Valley. He left his eldest son behind to settle his affairs. A year later, the son and his family followed Joseph to Kanawha.
Joseph’s initial interest in the potential of the salt was quickly replaced by his enthusiasm for farming the rich bottomland he had acquired. He would continue to acquire huge amounts of land in this new territory.
He did not live to see the development of the salt industry. But, in his will he specified his sons were to either utilize the salt resources or sell the land and divide the proceeds. Joseph’s fateful directive led to the Kanawha area becoming the leading salt producer on the western frontier. His sons did devise and develop the method of drilling and extracting the brine from a depth, which provided a higher concentration and quality brine. They then began to produce and market the
prized commodity - Salt.
Joseph and Ann were the parents of 8 children. They were:
Esther [1765 – 1783]; David [1767 – 1843]; Joseph, Jr. [1769 – 1837];
Tobias [1770 – 1834]; Samuel [1773 – 18--]; Eve [1775 – 1821];
Daniel [1779 – 1865]; Abraham [1781 – 1854].
Joseph and Ann both died in Charleston, Kanawha County, Virginia - now WV. Joseph died on March 23, 1803 and Ann followed on August 19, 1820. They are buried at Charleston beneath the towering trees in the quiet beauty of Ruffner Hollow, which is known today as Rifleman’s Memorial Park.

Husband's General Notes
Per Laidley, family history says that he was a Hessian soldier who was brought to the colonies by the British to fight against the Americans in the Revolutionary War. Also states that this is not true, the family was Swiss German who settled in the Shenandoah Valley in 1739.

The Kanawha Republican
February 11, 1843
Died at Kanawha Salines Wednesday evening the 1st inst., Col. David Ruffner, aged 76 years. Col. Ruffner immigrated to this county from Shenandoah in 1797. Within a few months he was reappointed a magistrate, an office he had held in Shenandoah for some years previous to his removal. He continued in the active discharge of the duties of that office for a period of nearly 47 years. Up to the time of his death probably no man had more completely realized the conception of those who framed our county court system, than he. He was elected by his fellow citizens to a seat in the Legislature, within less than a year after his first arrival in the county, and at various sessions of the Legislature in after years he was a member of that body.

Husband's General Notes

The Kanawha Republican
February 11, 1843
Died at Kanawha Salines Wednesday evening the 1st inst., Col. David Ruffner, aged 76 years. Col. Ruffner immigrated to this county from Shenandoah in 1797. Within a few months he was reappointed a magistrate, an office he had held in Shenandoah for some years previous to his removal. He continued in the active discharge of the duties of that office for a period of nearly 47 years. Up to the time of his death probably no man had more completely realized the conception of those who framed our county court system, than he. He was elected by his fellow citizens to a seat in the Legislature, within less than a year after his first arrival in the county, and at various sessions of the Legislature in after years he was a member of that body.

Dear Angie,
The Dague & Ruffner lines are not mine and I have done no original research on it. I have recorded the interesting information you have E-Mailed on the family however. In going through the information it looked very probable to me that Catharine Ann Dague's father could well be Mathias Dague with Johannes Friedrich Dague & Anna Maria Geysler the grandparents.
On the Internet site it says that Mathias Dague & Elizabeth Glass moved to Franklin County, Ohio, with their three oldest children and were the ancestors of that branch of the family. Robert Owens and Catherine Ann Williams were married and from Franklin County, Ohio.
Another consideration is that Johannes Friedrich Dague was born in 1736 and Catherine Ann Dague in 1779. 43 years is quite an age span though it is very possible. It is far enough apart that it is also possible to easily insert another generation. Walt did not believe Catharine was a daughter of Johannes Frederick Dague. That also makes my theory worth checking into.
Good luck. This is an interesting line. I believe the stories explain where the family tradition originated concerning Grandma Daggs coming for the orphaned Catherine by mule.
Love, Barbara

your post to the Ruffner List was forwarded to me. I am not sure if your Catherine Ann is the same as ours. I am descended from Frederick and Anna Maria Dague.
Also, according to Merla L. Becker, [email protected], Esther Ruffner died May 6, 1836.
Also, Anna Marie Beysler died October 28,1813 according to her stone.

According to the Tiffanys of America - History and Genealoby published by Nelson Otis Tiffany for and the in the interest of Charles Lewis Tiffany of New York City and the of the Tiffany Family - input on May 28, 2001.
Introduction
Squire Humphrey is the earliest Tiffany mentioned in Colonial History and hi is undoubtedly the ancestor of the majority of Tiffanys in America. The following notes copied from reliable records seem to fix the date when be became a citizen of the town of Rehoboth, Mass. (which town was incorporated in 1645, and contained the present towns fo Seekonk, Rehoboth, Attleboro, parts of Swansea, Mass., and Pawtucket, R.I.). The birth of a daughter, Sarah July 6, 1683; his death by lightning; the administration of his estate by wife Elizabeth; the death of his son, Hezekiah, the same year by drowning; ending with a record from the vital records of Rehoboth, which affirm his heirs in 1689 to be proprietors not inhabitants of property in Rehoboth, Mass.
Notes of Humphrey Tiffany --
Records of Ancient Rehoboth, History of New Plymouth, by Baylis, Vol I page 209. Jan 22, 1663, Humphrey Tiffany permitted to be a sojourner and to buy and hire.
the town o'Rehoboth, Mass., was incorporated 1645 and contained the towns of Seekonk, Rehoboth, Attleboro, Swansea, Mass., and Pawtucket, RI.
Att the General Court holden att Plymouth the first day of March, Anno Dorn 1663, Humphrey Tiffany made a complaint against an Indian for abuse received.
Humphrey Tiffany, Rehoboth, 1663, by wife Elizabeth had Sarah born July 6, 1683, and was an inhabitant of Dover for some time but killed July 15, 1685, on the journey between Swanzey and Boston by a stroke of lightning. -- Savage
From Mass. Historical Society, Vol 14., page 125, July 15, 1685, Humphrey Tiffany and Frances Low Travelling betwix Swanswey an Boston were slain with lightning.
Plymouth Colony Records, Vol 6, page 175. Att a General Court of hi Majtie att Plymouth, Oct, 27, 1685, administration is granted by this court to Elizabeth, the relict of Humphrey Tiffany deceased, on all the goods and chattles of sd., Tiffeney she bringing in true inventory there of and giving bond with two sufficient sureties for her administering according to law. Major John Walley is ordered the Court to give ye oath to the inventory of sd. Tiffeney and to deliver her the letter of administration granted by the Court, her having given a bond as afore sd.
Hezekiah, the son of Humprey Tiffinee and of Elizabeth his wife, was drowned in Swansey River on the 4th of December near night, anno 1685. From the Town records of Swansea, Mass., furnished by town clerk Henry O. Wood.
From the Vital Records of Rehoboth, page 917, Humphrey Tiffany's heirs are quoted as proprietors not inhabitants, Feb 7, 1689, of property in Rehoboth.
The emigration of the sons of Humphrey Tiffany was for a time limitied to short distances. We hear of James at Attleboro, Mass., 1693; Thomas his brother, first at Bristol, the at Ashford; Ebenezer another brother at Barrington, RI; Consider and Ephraim seem to have found their way to the town of New Shoreham, which town was admitted to the Colony as Block Island, May 4, 1664. Here per New Shoreham records funished by town clerk of New Shoreham -- Consider Tiffany and Abigail Niles were married and had children. Here also his brother Ephraim (of whose descendants this history deals), and wife Leshia, had issue.

Ephraim did not settle in Lyme till late in 1706 or the first of 1707, judging from an agreement between him and his partners, Ball and Banning. For a long time I find no transfers in his name but he was living in Lyme, Connecticutt, in 1724 and dided there previous to 1734. Was living in 1732.

According to the Tiffanys of America - History and Genealoby published by Nelson Otis Tiffany for and the in the interest of Charles Lewis Tiffany of New York City and the of the Tiffany Family - input on May 28, 2001.
Introduction
Squire Humphrey is the earliest Tiffany mentioned in Colonial History and hi is undoubtedly the ancestor of the majority of Tiffanys in America. The following notes copied from reliable records seem to fix the date when be became a citizen of the town of Rehoboth, Mass. (which town was incorporated in 1645, and contained the present towns fo Seekonk, Rehoboth, Attleboro, parts of Swansea, Mass., and Pawtucket, R.I.). The birth of a daughter, Sarah July 6, 1683; his death by lightning; the administration of his estate by wife Elizabeth; the death of his son, Hezekiah, the same year by drowning; ending with a record from the vital records of Rehoboth, which affirm his heirs in 1689 to be proprietors not inhabitants of property in Rehoboth, Mass.
Notes of Humphrey Tiffany --
Records of Ancient Rehoboth, History of New Plymouth, by Baylis, Vol I page 209. Jan 22, 1663, Humphrey Tiffany permitted to be a sojourner and to buy and hire.
the town o'Rehoboth, Mass., was incorporated 1645 and contained the towns of Seekonk, Rehoboth, Attleboro, Swansea, Mass., and Pawtucket, RI.
Att the General Court holden att Plymouth the first day of March, Anno Dorn 1663, Humphrey Tiffany made a complaint against an Indian for abuse received.
Humphrey Tiffany, Rehoboth, 1663, by wife Elizabeth had Sarah born July 6, 1683, and was an inhabitant of Dover for some time but killed July 15, 1685, on the journey between Swanzey and Boston by a stroke of lightning. -- Savage
From Mass. Historical Society, Vol 14., page 125, July 15, 1685, Humphrey Tiffany and Frances Low Travelling betwix Swanswey an Boston were slain with lightning.
Plymouth Colony Records, Vol 6, page 175. Att a General Court of hi Majtie att Plymouth, Oct, 27, 1685, administration is granted by this court to Elizabeth, the relict of Humphrey Tiffany deceased, on all the goods and chattles of sd., Tiffeney she bringing in true inventory there of and giving bond with two sufficient sureties for her administering according to law. Major John Walley is ordered the Court to give ye oath to the inventory of sd. Tiffeney and to deliver her the letter of administration granted by the Court, her having given a bond as afore sd.
Hezekiah, the son of Humprey Tiffinee and of Elizabeth his wife, was drowned in Swansey River on the 4th of December near night, anno 1685. From the Town records of Swansea, Mass., furnished by town clerk Henry O. Wood.
From the Vital Records of Rehoboth, page 917, Humphrey Tiffany's heirs are quoted as proprietors not inhabitants, Feb 7, 1689, of property in Rehoboth.
The emigration of the sons of Humphrey Tiffany was for a time limitied to short distances. We hear of James at Attleboro, Mass., 1693; Thomas his brother, first at Bristol, the at Ashford; Ebenezer another brother at Barrington, RI; Consider and Ephraim seem to have found their way to the town of New Shoreham, which town was admitted to the Colony as Block Island, May 4, 1664. Here per New Shoreham records funished by town clerk of New Shoreham -- Consider Tiffany and Abigail Niles were married and had children. Here also his brother Ephraim (of whose descendants this history deals), and wife Leshia, had issue.
Generation Second:

Ephraim (2), son of Humphrey (1), and Elizabeth Tiffany m. Leshia -- and had issue, b. in New Shoreham, Block Island. 1. Samuel (3), b. April 7, 1701 2. Consider (3), b. April 28, 1703. 3.

Consider (2) Moved to LYme and made a number of transfers of real estate from time to time. Ephraim did not settle in Lyme till late in 1706 or the first of 1707, judging from an agreement between him and his partners, Ball and Banning. For a long time I find no transfers in his name but he was living in Lyme, Connecticutt, in 1724 and dided there previous to 1734. Was living in 1732.

The Allred (Aldridge) Family of England and North Carolina
The origin of this surname traces back to ancient Anglo-Saxon times. It is said to be a compound of the Anglo-Saxon "ald" or eald" meaning old and "rad" or "red" signifying wise counsel. In the old Gothic language, it appeared a ALDRED and in English as ELDRED or ALDRED.1
Another author terms ALDRED and ALDRIDGE as "undoubted survivors of Anglo-Saxon compounds" AETHELRAED or EALDRAED.2
A third explanation given is that the name had the signification of "all-dread" or "all-fear," since "All" and "Ael" in Old English and Saxon mean the same as the English"All," and "dred" is equivalent to our modern dread or fear. This author then lists these equivalents:
"ALDRED (Sax) All-fear
"Aldridge (Sax.) The same as Aldred, of which it is a corruption."3
The interchangeable character of the surnames ALDRED and ALDRIDGE and of ELDRED and ELDRIDGE is shown in the history of the New England branches of these families. In the vital records of Dedham, Mass., one of the early settlers is recorded as HENRY ALDRIDGE or ALDRIDG. He is also called ALDRIDGE in the town records. In four entries of the church records he is called ALLRED in three of them; in the fourth (his burial) he is called HENERY ALLDRIDGE.4

2. The Romance of Surnames, by Ernest Weekly, E. P. Dutton & Co., 1914, p. 72.
3. Etymological Dictionary of Family and Christian Names, by William Arthur Sheldon, Blakeman & Co., New York, 1857, p. 50.
4. Dedham Vital Records, First Church Records.
Similarity WILLIAM ELDRED became a resident of Yarmouth ,Mass. In the second and third generation the surname of his descendants changed from ELDRED to ELDREDG, ELDREDGE, and ELDRIDGE, and so has continued to the present.5
SAMUEL ELDRED, of Cambridge, Mass., and Stonington, Conn., is believed to have been the brother of William of Yarmouth. Samuel came from Lavenham, Suffolk, England, according to Col. Edward Banks` Topographical Dictionary of English Emigrants to New England, page 157.
HENRY ALDRED OR ALDRIDGE of Dedham, Mass., was from Brampton, Suffolk, being of THOMAS ALDRED (called THOMAS ALDERED at marriage, May 3, 1624), who married Mary Chickeringe. She was the daughter of Henry Chickeringe of Rinesfeild, Suffolk. In his will dated July 11, 1626, the latter mentions his "daughter Mary, now wife of Thomas Aldred of Brampton."
It is reasonable, therefore, to look to Suffolk and the adjoining county of Norfolk, England, for the origin of the Aldred-Eldred family. This area was in all probability the original home of the Aldreds. Evidences at hand probe that persons bearing this surname in its varied forms of spelling were living in this general locality from the time when surnames first came into general use.
THE ALDRED-ALDRICH-ALDRIDGE FAMILY OF WORSTEAD, NORFOLK, ENGLAND, NORTHUMBERLAND COUNTY, VIRGINIA, RANDOLPH COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA.
The first of this family recorded as living at Worstead, Norfolk, England, was the Rev. HENRY ALDRED, who was Vicar there in the year 1553.
Blomefield, in his monumental History of Norfolk, Vol. 5, pp. 1455-14565, says the town of Worstead is situated in a flat country. Worstead stuffs have said to have taken their name from this town, from being first manufactured there. The church is dedicated to St. Mary. He speaks of the priory of Bromholm, and of its dissolution on May 26, 6th year of Edward VI (1553), adding:
"On the dissolution of the priory, the manor belonging to it, with the rectory, and the patronage of the vicarage, were granted to the dean and chapter of Norwich; and the vicarage is valued at 10 lb. Per anom. --Mr. HENRY ALDRED vicar." (P.1456)
Henry Aldred may have been father of the Rev. HENRY ALDRED, who was Vicar and Curate, at Marsham, Norfolk, and also at Worstead, villages about six miles apart. These entries relate to him:
5 Yarmouth Vital Records.
"Henry Aldred, Clerke then Curate here, and Margrett Browne were married 4 day of June 1599." (Marsham P.R., p. 31).
"Henry Aldred, Vicar of Worsteds, resigned 1603, then became Vicar of Rushall, presented by sir Edward Clere." (Henry W. Aldred: Suffolk Records, p. 54)
In the Worstead Parish Registers appear several entries relating to him.

(Another reading of this surname in the register gives it as ROSSE,) It would appear that John Aldrich or Aldridge had traveled, and his wife Anne (Agnes and Anne were often used interchangeably), thinking him dead, remarried EDMUND BOUTMAN, 2/2/1596. The record of Bishop Redman's Visitation of the Diocese of Norwich, 1597, under Worstead, contains this presentment:

He many have gone to Northumberland Co., Va. His wife may have been the daughter of Christopher Boswell wife may have been the daughter of Christopher Boswell and Margery Lambert, married at Worstead in 1577, and a sister of Edmund Boswell who married Susan Compton there in 1612.

CLEMENT ALDRIDGE or ALDRICH, son of Clement Aldrich or Aldridge and Susan Boswell :, was christened at Worstead, Norfolk, England, 8/25/1636. Entries In the parish register relating to him are as follows:
1. Norfolk Record Society Publications, Vol. XVIII, p. 76.
2. Boyd's Marriage Index for Norfolk, 1538 -1600, Vol. 1:139; Vol. 2:138.

MARRIAGES:
1668 18 Oct. Clement Aldridge and Elizabeth Tills.
1673 12 May Samuel Pycroft and Alice Aldered (sister of Clement).
BURIALS
1668 1 Sept. Alice W. Clement Aldridge.
In the year 1668, the name of Clement Aldridge first appears on the records of Northumberland Co., Va.
" 7 Apr. 1668 Whereas it appears to this Co(t) y(t)
Mr. Rich: Haskins CLEMENT ALDRIDGE stands indebted to Rich: Haskins In ye sums of six hundred eighty one pounds of Tobacco and Cask it is ordered that ye ad CLEMT ALDRIDGE forthwith pay ye ad sume unto ye ad Mr. Haskins." (Northumberland Co. Order Book, 3:35.)
Clement Aldridge and his wife Elizabeth became settlers in what was then known as Bowtracy and Fairfield parishes, embracing the section of Northumberland Co. North of the Great Wicocomico River (later shortened to Wicomico). In 1698, these two parishes were united to form the parish of St. Stephen's parish has been preserved and is now at the State Library at Richmond, Va.. It is in a mutilated condition, the edges of some of the first pages In the volume being worn and wasted away at the edges. Yet the facts contained therein are priceless, imperfect though they be.
On page 3 are recorded these entries of the children of Clement Aldredge:
"....ent Aldridge Son to Clement was Borne Sep.................
..........d Aldredge Daughter to do as borne Mar....................
.........ce Aldridge Daughter to Do was borne Oct...................
..........m Aldredge Son to Do was Borne Feb...................
........aac Aldredge Son to Do was borne S.....................
.........ohn Aldredge Son to Do was borne Feb...............
Since Clement Aldridge, Jr., was a witness in Court in 1691, it is presumable that these children were born between the years 1672 and 1682. William Aldridge was an adult in 1700. The other sons were evidently Isaac and John; one of the daughters was either Alice or Grace; the other may possibly have been Winifred. The next entry in the register in point of date and alphabetical sequence is in the year 1696 on page 4. Intervening year dates are missing. (Northumberland Co. Births and Deaths, 1650-1810, p.3)
On 2 Apr. 1677, CLEMT ARLIDGE witnessed a will. ON 17 Apr. 1678, CLEMENT ALDRIDGE was party to a suit for debt. He was a carpenter or joiner by trade and had an apprentice bound to him 21 Aug. 1678. CLEMENT ALDRIGE was a tithable of Bowtracy parish 7 June 1679. On 19 Nov. 1679, CLEMENT ALDRIDGE was paid for mending Bowtracy Church. He appears in various court entries in 1684 and 1688. On 22 June 1693, "William Beane was arrested at the suit of CLEMENT ALDRIDGE & ELIZABETH his wife." The final entry regarding him is recorded thus:
"Aldridge's "Upon the mocon of ELIZABETH ALDRIDGE execrx a Probate is granted
Will proved Her of the Last Will and Testament of CLEMENT ALDRIDGE deced.
19 Jan. 1698- the said Will being proved by the oaths of David Straughan & MARY TULLES
1699." Witnesses to the said Will and the same is admitted to Record. (Northumberland
Co. Order Book 5:3)"
Unfortunately this will is missing, being destroyed in a fire at the Courthouse a short time later.
It would have been, undoubtedly, of great aid.
Children of Clement Aldridge and Elizabeth Tills:
I. ELIZABETH Aldridge, car. 8/22/1669, Worstead, Norfolk, England.
II. MARY Aldridge, car. 10/9/1670, Worstead, Norfolk, Eng.

VIII. JOHN Aldridge, b. Feb.. (Ca. 1682), Northumberland Co., Va..; perhaps d. 4/16/ 1720.
WILLIAM ALLRIDGE or ARLEDGE, son of Clement Aldridge and Elizabeth Tills, was born in February, about the year 1678, in Northumberland Co., Va.. The day and year of his birth record are obliterated from the old St. Stephen's Parish Register, now preserved In the Virginia State Library, Richmond, Va.. The birth of one son is recorded in this same register to William: "...n sone to Wm Aldredge was born May 16, 170...." (P.3)
This was evidently the son John who was under 21 in 1724, as mentioned in his father's will/
William's name appears frequently in the court records, his surname being spelled ALDRIDGE and ALDREDGE, BUT MOST FREQUENTLY ARLEDGE.
"19 May 1703. Wm. Arledge & ALICE his wife having this day in court acknowledged a Deed for Sixty acres of land more or less to Mrs. Hannah Nealy ye sd deed is Recorded." (Northumberland Co. Order Book, 5:246).
WILLIAM ALDRIDGE or ARLEDGE married 2nd , SARAH .

On 17 Feb.. 1724-5 "This Inventory of the Estate of WM. ARLEDGE Execx of the ad Decd and is admitted to Record." (Northumberland Co. Record Book, 19:375)
William Arledge's Will:

William's widow did not survive him many years. On 19 April 1727, the "Inventory of the Estate of SARAH ARLEDGE was presented to court by William Thomas, Richard March and Richd Thomas." (Ibid., 20:70a)
The following record of the division of her estate may indicate which of the children mentioned in the will of William were her own children, and which those of the first wife ALICE.

JOHN ALDRIDGE OR ALDRED OR ALRED, son of William Aldridge or Arledge and probably his first wife ALICE , WAS BORN 5/16/170 (PROBABLY ABOUT 17060, in Wicomico Parish, Northumberland Co., Va.. He was under twenty when his father made his will. This would fix his year of birth definitely between the years 1705 and 1709.
In May 1740, CLEMENT ARLEDGE obtained an attachment against the Estate of JOHN ARLEDGE for nine hundred pounds of tobacco.
In 1755, the family had removed to Orange Co, N.C. A list of Taxable of Orange Co., for that year shows living there:
Thomas Allre 2 whites
William Aldridge 1 white
Solomon Alred 1 white
JOHN ALRED 1 white
William Alred 1 white
William Alred 1white
(Film, North Carolina Records, No. 15, Pt. 2)
On 15 March 1755 is recorded a "Grant from Earl Granville to JOHN ALDRED of Orange Co., N.C., of 640 acres. Entry 154. No. 01128.
On 15 March 1756 there was a "Grant to JOHN ALDRED or ALRED must have been in full sympathy with those who opposed official tyranny. There is preserved on Petition from a group of his neighbors, and he on behalf of Thomas Welborn, who appears to have come under investigation fro his part in the struggle. Among those signing this testimonial were these: Semore York, Jeremiah York, TIDENCE LANE, JOHN LANCE, JOHN ALREAD, Shubal Stearnes. (Colonial records of North Carolina (25-26)
Randolph County was formed from Orange County and Rowan County, (Guilford Co. from Orange and Rowan, 1771; Randolph Co. From Guilford, 1779), and this included the Sandy Creek Settlement. It is probable that JOHN died before 1779, but the date of his death is uncertain.

THOMAS ALLRED, son of John ALDRIDGE or Alfred or Alred, was born about 1730, probably in Wicomico Parish, Northumberland Co., Va. He had moved with his parents to what was then Orange County, but is ow Randolph co., N.C., prior to 1755, when he first appears upon the records there. By this date he was married and probably had one child.
The first list of Taxables made in Randolph County after its formation in 1779, drawn up that same year, included in one group Thomas and four of his sons: ELIAS ALLRED, JOHN ALLRED, JR., THOMAS ALLRED, WILLIAM ALLRED, JAMES ALLRED. Before 1790, when the first Federal Census was taken, his son WILLIAM had removed to S.C. MOSES also removed early to Ga.
Thomas Alred, of Randolph Co., N.C., in his will dated 8 Nov. 1809, proved in May, 1810, mentions wife ELIZABETH, sons & daughter JAMES, WILLIAM, ELIAS, JON, MOSES & ELI, RACHEL BROWN & ELIZABETH JONES; grandson WILLIAM ALRED son of ELIAS ALRED; son LEVI. (Randolph Co. Wills, 3: 188-189)
