OLD NORTH CHURCHYARD


INTRODUCTION.


It is hoped that this present study is but the first of a series which will, when completed, comprise a complete transcription, with the necessary charts, of all the ancient and modern burial places in greater Ipswich. All the ma- terial has been collected and is in manuscript form await- ing publication. It includes, beyond the material presented here (the Old North, or High Street Burial Yard of Ips- wich), its continuation, the Highland Cemetery, the South Cemetery, the Locust Grove, and the three cemeteries of the Linebrook Parish of Ipswich. It also includes the burial yard of the second or Chebacco Parish of Ipswich, now Essex, and a portion of that of the Hamlet Parish, now Hamilton, in use when these towns were parts of Ipswich, and the private cemetery of the Nourse family in Ipswich Village.


A few fundamental facts should be kept in mind with reference to these studies. Neither the original owners of the ancient burying grounds, the Parish Churches, under whose care and jurisdiction they grew up, nor the towns to which they were later conveyed, kept or at any times possessed charts or other records of the location of graves. It is obvious that until recent times the ownership of indi- vidual graves and plots and the lines of demarcation were very vague. Again it was not until comparatively recent times that statute law required those in charge of the dead to file with town officials the time and place of burials. For this reason town records of deaths are quite incomplete.


In doing this work we are deeply conscious that we are but completing that which a long line of antiquarians had begun, but which, through a series of varying circum- stances, was never brought to completion.

OLD NORTH CHURCHYARD


The first to start this work was the late Abraham Hammatt (1781 - 1845). Primarily a genealogist, his work was in the eighteenth century and it is known that he copied many of the Ipswich stones of that period as aids to his studies. Unfortunately much of his work is lost.


Next in time was the work of the late Augustin Cald- well and Arthur W. Dow, who, in their Ipswich Antiqua- rian Papers, copied and published many of the outstanding Old North inscriptions. We have been through this publi- cation, checking all which they included and have found some which have since disappeared from the cemetery. Such stones are indicated in the text. None of the above scholars made any pretence at a complete study.


The late John Nourse entered the field somewhat later and began a detailed scale chart. It is evident from his papers that he spent a large amount of time and did much hard and thorough work but unfortunately he did not cover more than a part of the Old North Yard. His approach was both admirable and enviable, making a scale fac-simile copy of each stone. We would have liked to continue his admirable example but the difficulty and expense of print- ing made it impossible. His papers were turned over to the custody of the Town Clerk. Through the courtesy of Mr. Edward Cogswell, the present incumbent, we were given access to them.


The last worker in the field was the late Rev. T. Frank- lin Waters, who, with the assistance of Mr. Henry Spauld- ing, started the work anew. He contemplated publishing his results in the series of the Ipswich Historical Society. With his scholarly mind he approached the diffi- culties of the problem in a thorough manner. It was his intention to divide the Old North Yard into areas delimited permanently by granite markers, for the purpose of chart- ing the stones. A few of these were placed. The prelim- inary work was completed and many inscriptions were copied, but unfortunately his untimely death brought his wide-spread antiquarian research to an end. Through the


3


OLD NORTH CHURCHYARD


kindness of Mrs. Waters we obtained the use of his papers.


After we surveyed the material in hand, it was our intention to make a compilation of all the work previously done, thus bringing to completion the attempts of our predecessors. We did this, copying the material on indi- vidual cards for purposes of alphabetical arrangement. This done, we went to the Old North Yard only to discover that the work previously done covered for the most part identical sections with important areas untouched. When we considered the charts prepared by Mr. Nourse and Mr. Waters we found in the first instance that the individual inscriptions were not keyed to his chart, in the latter that it had been started on the basis of granite markers which had not been placed. Faced with these obvious difficulties it seemed wise to start the work afresh. This also necessi- tated the making of a new chart. When all the stones had been card-indexed we checked them against the work of our predecessors, thus discovering those stones which had disappeared since their various work.


It became obvious to us very soon that the number of burials on the basis of calculated population was far in excess of the number of graves which had been marked with stones. Any scholarly approach to such a problem is difficult. One might postulate the burial of any number of persons by probability but such a procedure would at best be filled with inaccuracies. The obvious solution was to discover some source of information as to burials which had not been marked with stones. Town records did not supply this information, neither did parish records. We examined both. The only other possibility was records of undertakers. We discovered that the office and profession of undertaker was comparatively recent. In the eighteenth and seventeenth centuries certain of the parish officers performed this function and no records could be discovered except in the case of the Linebrook cemeteries.


Coming to the period of the professional undertaker we were very fortunate to discover that Mr. Ralph K.


4


OLD NORTH CHURCHYARD


Whittier had the private records of the late Mr. Philip Clark and his father. He very kindly turned over this col- lection for our use and study. In them we found evidence of many burials in the various cemeteries and in a few cases approximate location of the same. These will be found in the text marked with an asterisk.


Some may ask the value of such a work as this. The answer to this question lies primarily in the growing inter- est in genealogical studies. In such work one of the most important primary sources of data is cemetery inscriptions. Beyond this is the sentimental value attached to the knowl- edge that when time and the weather have destroyed many of the stones, there will still exist a record of those places where the dust of the generations has found abiding rest and of the names of those who have contributed to the heritage which is ours. And last there is the conviction, because every worker in the field of Ipswich history has felt this a task worthy the effort, that were they here, they would be pleased in the knowledge that another generation of workers in their chosen field had brought the work to conclusion and thus realized for them those dreams which the accidents of time made impossible of fruition.


One practical value has already accrued from this work. During the summer of 1934, as a project to supply work for the horde of local unemployed, an ambitious project was started to "restore" the Old North Burial Yard. The work was begun and some three hundred an- cient stones were uprooted from the dust which they marked and hallowed, sorted according to size, and replaced in straight rows, orderly to be sure, neat without a doubt, but quite at odds with all historical and sentimental prece- dent.


When we learned of this project, eminently worthy in its intent though disastrous in its results, we, with the officers of the Ipswich Historical Society, the Society for the Preservation of New England Antiquities, the Society for the Preservation of the Beauties of Essex County, the


5


OLD NORTH CHURCHYARD


local chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution, and many historically minded citizens, protested against this unusual procedure. The result was that the stones were replaced on the graves where they had been first erected. In this work the local administrators of the proj- ect gave the most whole hearted co-operation, received sug- gestions in the most kindly spirit, and on the whole, despite the unfortunate beginnings, the work was reorganized, the stones handled under our supervision, weak ones re- paired, cement foundations placed under those where it was deemed necessary and prudent, several ancient tombs in danger of collapse rebuilt and permanently sealed, a task which, in the ordinary course of town expenditures, could never have been provided for by funds received from ordinary taxation.


Had it not been that we had completed our preliminary work, viz, charting and copying every stone, the project would have resulted in disaster for it would have been im- possible to replace the stones on the graves to which, in the course of nature, they belonged.


In the practical use of this study may be pointed out certain principles we have used in its construction. First, in copying the inscriptions from the stones it was our original intention to publish fac-simile reproductions. This was impossible and consequently we have followed this procedure. Every name, date, and memorial verse or in- scription has been transcribed with the original spelling, punctuation, and variants of stone cutting with these three exceptions-the ancient form of s (f) has been eliminated, also the ancient use of Y as an equivalent of th, and the various forms of the and sign. It will be noted that we have not followed, in many instances, the line arrangement as found on the stones. We have done this to facilitate the printing and the reading.


In some instances in cross-indexing, where we could not be sure whether names were maiden or middle, we have assumed, where reason and dates indicated, that they were


6


OLD NORTH CHURCHYARD


the former. In doing this our intention was to be inclusive at the risk of an occasional error.


In preparing the charts we had hoped to have them drawn to scale but practical considerations made it impos- sible. We had to choose between this, which would have resulted in a series of large awkward maps, or free-hand diagrams far more convenient for use. We chose the latter method. It will be noted that first there is a key map, giving sections into which the cemetery is divided, and that this is followed by a series of sectional diagrams in which each stone can be located.


Some may question the inclusion of the terraces as part of the ancient yard. In that they were part of the area transferred to the town by the Parish in 1859, and in that the Highland Cemetery does not begin until the brow of the hill is reached, the terraces constitute an integral part of the Old North Burial Yard. Therefore they have been included in this part of the work.


In passing we point out that at one time these terraces had names, for each of the various presidents of the United States (always omitting the Democratic presidents-pre- sumably no affront to the dead was desired, by making them restless in a nomenclature of which they did not approve in life). Because this system has passed out of use, we thought it wise to ignore the once prevalent custom and list them within the neutrality of numbers.


One other thing should be mentioned. In each case where a grave has been marked as containing a Revolu- tionary or Civil War soldier, we have indicated it so that if the stones should disappear or disintegrate, the resting places may still be kept in knowledge and our patriotic societies may continue their splendid work of honouring them.


It has been our intention to present this study as free from errors as possible, but we feel perfection not possible. If any be noticed, which we hope will not be the case, we


7


OLD NORTH CHURCHYARD


shall be happy to acknowledge them, and avoid their recur- rence in the continuation of this work.


It would seem appropriate in such a work as this to include a history of the cemetery itself from the time it formed the limit of the town in 1634 to the present day. We must sincerely apologize for the omission of such a history. We attempted, by research in the Registry of Deeds of Essex County, to extend the deed history of the area given by Mr. Waters in his history of Ipswich but gave up in despair after having reached the conclusion that every pertinent known fact had been included by Mr. Waters and to extend it would necessitate the employment of a trained surveyor to attack the problem through all the deeds of those whose land has ever abutted the cemetery in its various stages of growth.


Men of a century and more ago apparently did not realize that their descendants would be at all interested in the half acre or the "quarter and halfe quarter of acre of land" they transferred so blithely with no mention as to where these fractions of land might be located.


May we point out to those interested that our fellow- townsman, Mr. Edward Darling, has been working on the problem for several years, and while he kindly offered to us the use of his results to the present, we felt in justice to him that his work should be carried to completion by him. Until then we suggest that anyone interested in the history of the land of the cemetery itself consult Mr. Waters' Ipswich in the Massachusetts Bay Colony.
