EARLY CONNECTICUT MARRIAGES.
FIFTH BOOK.

When some six years ago we commenced the publication of this series it did not seem possible that there ever would be a call for a fifth book. The venture was made with strange misapprehension of the real nature of that interest which the American people was supposed to have in the question of ancestry. Fortunately for us, however, the value of our effort was greatly underestimated. Likewise, too, had we but faintly conceived the extent and intensity of that devotion to the study whose best en- couragement .came from such contributions as our own.
In the natural course of things this historic state of Connecticut has turned out a good many people. The numerous generations since the first settlement have been very prolific. Large families were the rule. Had all the children and the children's children remained at home and in the little commmonwealth it would have found us somewhat cramped for room and with serious problems to face. Fortunately as it was, however, the spirit of the times, the opportunities which fresh discovery of new fields brought, a love of adventure not unmixed with an increasing love of gain and enterprise, all these and more led these Connecticut born into Central and Western Massachusetts, up the great river into far away Ver- mont, over into New York, just across the border and later into the rich and fertile territory of Central and Western New York, Ohio, and portions of Pennsylvania. From these parts they spread out to every section of our country, contributing their good share to its betterment and upbuild- ing. Ultimately without loss of the high endeavor which inspired them from the first, lacking in some essential portions of the story of emigra- tion, they rightly seek now to complete that interesting work.
Our humble effort, therefore, has not been without goodly fruitage if . it has aided in this intention. Indeed are very sure that since these issues have appeared, the name of Connecticut has become dearer and more dear to many scattered everywhere who before never betook themselves to a study of its ancient glories.
And as to that be it said with convincing truthfulness that to one who loves genealogical research it is a new and a lasting glory to surely find the state and the particular place where first our own people made them- selves a permanent abiding place .. The very spot where once that early ancestor lived, toiled, suffered, died, its surroundings and environment, all things thereabouts which might possibly have been associated with his limited sphere and long life have their fascination. The intervening period of family existence when one's fathers were more often on the move is not half as attractive as that of the early beginnings when some- how we seem to feel that then and there in that atmosphere and those particular conditions and prospects our own family characteristics had for this country at least their first permanent setting.
In these recent years there has been much said and written about the abandoned farms of New England. In this discussion even Connecticut with all its prosperity and internal advantages may well share as one views with some touch of sadness the decayed and desolate homesteads found in several isolated sections of the state. Of course there is a clear explanation for this condition of things which no one can question. It is the solution of the great problem most wanted, whereby to restore to town and commonwealth an essential element of strength. The Governor of New Hampshire who inaugurated "Old Home Week" and saw it suc- cessfully established accomplished thereby a great step toward solving the question. For through that appeal to a delicate instinct which most of us feel, there came quick response; and the old tottering farm house
afar away upon lonely hill that once was the center of so much joy and affection again clothed itself in much of its former beauty and freshness. There have been worthy instances of this sort in our own state where the ambitious son with that restless and resistless spirit of youth has gone forth from the parental roof in the wilds, and after the years of successful toiling that has produced its own weariness, returns at last satisfied to spend his remaining years, as also his hard accumulations, amidst the scenes and environments of early and visionary youth. Such fortunate men and wise have made the wilderness bloom and blossom as the rose.
The question of the abandoned farm seems to us at times to be more a question of the abandoned family than anything else. In other words a case wherein some well established family of to-day in the changing vicissitudes of our American life as is so common had lost all knowledge of its early career. Even the traditional had faded from view and that usual mainstay-a Bible record-but began a short and uninteresting story some two or three generations back with the bare facts of a birth. a marriage and the children; just where, it did not seem as if of enough consequence to state. There are, we feel sure, many such instances all over the land of old American families that through the changing years and circumstances have become detached from their early anchorage, while the effort to find it again has seemed so hopeless as to induce the feeling of utter despair.
It might seem therefore as if the disclosure of these early marriage records might serve a good purpose if they surely revealed the long hid- den secret and fixed the locality in the minds and hearts of this genera- tion.
In our last issue-Book IV-we had occasion in the Preface to refer to the bright prospects of some definite action by the state authorities to repair and save the old records scattered about; and could wish now it was our pleasure to report steady progress in that direction. The ques- tion seemed so vital and so completely removed from any thought of party prejudice that every member of the General Assembly might be presumed to have an interest as he had an interest in his own town's need.
A definite policy for the reconstruction of the old books seemed to be the most natural conclusion to draw from the facts in hand. From our view therefore it is a real disappointment to have to chronicle here that when the special commission had, after months of labor, made its interest- ing report, been given a hearing and had pressed its recommendations, said report met the same fate as many another unpopular though worthy cause. And so here seems to be the end of the suggestion which Governor Lounsbury so faithfully urged, with nothing apparently gained by the long discussion. The old records are now two years older than when this subject was first as a crying need advocated; while what is a more serious complication consists in the fact that in two old towns at least with rec- ords of very ancient date, a private corporation has seen fit to make com- plete abstracts of both land and probate for their own use, while the originals freely handled have suffered even more serious damage.
There would arise a very peculiar condition of things likely at last to awaken some of these conservative towns if this method were pursued to any great extent among us while the old originals (with no public copy) be left to decay and ultimately perish.
The records published herewith have for the most part been thor- oughly verified and we can offer them as another contribution to the study of Connecticut genealogy. Of course there are the usual complica- tions of varied spellings, and obscure chirography. These matters will surely correct themselves once the clue is established and the valued dis- covery effectually offset our seeming error.
