THE GILLETT FAMILY.


GILLETT, Jonathan, with his brother NATHAN came to Dorchester, Mass., with Rev. Warham, and (both) to W. with the first emigration (see p. 15%, Vol. 1). Both he and his wife were members of the orig. D. and W. ch. (O. C. R.); D. W. P. thinks that he probably d. 27 Feb., 1697-8; O. C. R. says: " Jonathan, Sen.," d. 23 Ang., 1677, and in its list of persons taken into W. ch. "and are now living " (the date of this Ree. is Dec. 21, 1677) is mentioned "Wid. Gillett." The Rec. in Gillett-Ilol- comb Bible, referred to below (see, also, Note, p. 290), says " Father Gillett dyed in 1667." There is still extant, in the possession of a Windsor family, a copy of the Geneva edition of the Bible, of 1599, commonly known as the "Breeches Bible," because the fig-leaf garment made by our first parents in the Garden of Eden, and which in the King James's Version is called apron, is herein given as bruches. This Bible was brought to New England by this Jonathan Gillett, Sen. and afterwards passed into the hands of the present Holcomb family, prob. through Lois, who was the daughter of Jonathan Holcomb by his second wife. Wid. Mary Gillet, whom he married 28 June, 1721. Lois Holcomb, b. 5 July, 1748, was mar- ried July, 1772, to Noah (father of Perly, father of Dea. Anson) Cooley of North Granby, Conn. In the family, this Gillett-Holcomb Bible was familiarly known as the " Bear Bible," because it was once, in the olden days, placed in a window to keep the sash raised, when a bear, endeavoring to effect an entrance, clawed it, leaving the marks of his claws so deep upon the edges of its leaves, that they are still very plainly to be seen. In this Bible occurs the following manuscript record: " My father Gilleftt] came into new-inglan the secon[d] time in June in the yeare 1634 and Jonathan his sonne was born about half a yeare aftur he cam to land." [The italies are ours. ] A jar now in possession of Mr. Norman F. Stoughton of So. Windsor, was, it is said, " brought over" by the first JJonathan Gillett. It is
