COMSTOCK - Origin of the name - Parts quoted from The Comstock Family Comstock is a place name. Its derivation undoubtedly traces to avillage in Debonshire, England, called Culmstock which is located off theRiver Clum some ten miles east of Tiverton and an equal distance south ofTaunton. The village probably derived its name from the fact that inmediaeval times it was customary to erect 'stocks' or stockades aroundrural communities as a protection against wolves and marauders. Thisparticular stockade being located on the River Clum or Colm came to bedesignated Colmstocke or Culmstock. In considering the origin of family names, it must be borne in mindthat surnames in England did not become permanent or hereditary until theEleventh or Twelfth Centruies. Prior to that, a man's given name came tohave the additional designation of his vocation such as John (the) Smithor Robert (the) Cooper, or one might be known from the place o hisorigin, as Thomas de Mille or Peter de Culmstock. Frequently the de (of)was droped as superfluous. It is not surprising, therefore, to find records in the parishRegisters of the small towns of Devonshire and Somersetshire, not far,from Culmstok, of such names as Petro de Columstok, 1241; John deCulmstok, 1189; Robert de Culmstok, 1189. Samuel Willett Comstock, in his extensive researches in England,found records of some 122 early Comstocks, including that of a family atTimberscomve in the first year of the reign of Richard I (1189), whereinis named John de Culmstok, his wife Alice, and son Rovert. This is theeaarliest known reference to the name as applied to personsl 'I do think from a survey of that country with only two records ofWilliam found, that our William went from London to Yeovil or Cussy Rivaland raised his family there. Yeovil parish registers 1620-1640 have notso far as I know been published and I think it may possibly contaim them,as there was a Danyell Comstock near by, in town of Closworth, SomersetCounty, 1614 and 1615.' (Samuel Willett Comstock) Coat of Arms is pictured and described in The Comstock Family Motto - Not wealth bet contentment. Described as Follows- Arms; or, (gold) a sword point downward, issuing from a cresent in basegules (red), between two bears rampant sable (black); an elephant is indicative of personal prowess and sagacity. The bear symbolize courage. The sword and crescent indicate participation in the Crusades. Crest; an elephant rampant proper, issuing out of a baron's coronet. A History and Genealogy of the Comstock Family in America John Adams Comstock William Comstock -- About 1635, or shortly there after, there came from England to theMassachusetts settlements one William Comstock. From whence he sailed and on what ship, has not been ascertained. It is quite probable thatwith him were his wife Elizabeth and four, or possibly all five of hischildren. It is believed that he first sojourned in the vicinity ofWatertown, Massachusetts, but that very shortly he transferred toWethersfield, Connecuticut. It is a matter of rrecord that he held lands on the ConnecticutRiver in Wethersfield in the year 1641, and that these land had beenpurchased from on Richard Milles. Prior to taht, he is recorded ashaving been one of the twenty-six men from Wethersfield in the expeditioncommanded by Capt. John Mason, that captured the Pequot Fort at Mystic,Connecticut, May 26, 1637, killing about five hundred indians. About 1650 he transferred to Pequot, now New London, where he hadpreviously (1647) received a grant of land. At a town meeting held therein November, 1650 he voted to cooperate with John Winthrop to establish acorn mill, and in July 1651 he 'Wrought on the mill dam' with Tabor andother inhabitants of New London. The old mill is still in existence.(1945) In 1659 it is recorded that 'with consent of my now wife Elizabeth'he sold property in New London. This probably indicates that Elizabethwas a scond wife. On February 25, 1661 or 62, 'Ols Goodman Comstock' was electedSexton, 'to order youth in the meeting house, sweep the meeting house andbeat out dogs,' at 40 shillings a year, to dig all graves, and have 4sfor a grave for a moan or woman, and 2s for children, to be paid by thesupervisors. The date of his death is unknown, but the History of New Londonstates taht he lived to old age, on Post Hill near the north corner ofWilliams and Bauxhall Streets. Richard Mylls was plaintiff against 'Willi Combstocke' and JohnSadler, defedants, in an action for slander, Aug 1, 1644, before theCourt of Elections, Hartford, to the damage of 200 pounds. We have, therefore, as the beginning of our record of the comstockfamily in America.2
