John Hammond lived in

HAMMOND Melford, England, and there is little doubt that he

was John Hammond, the fuller and cloth manufacturer who is mentioned in the Mel- ford records, and who was named as executor in the will of John Hammond the elder, of Melford, dated August 4, 1517, proved April 22, 1528. He may have been the son of this John, although he is not mentioned as a son in the will. John the elder was of the Law- shall family of Hammonds who trace their an- cestry back to the year 1400. In any event he was undoubtedly a near relative and with- out doubt a descendant of the John Ham- mond of Lawshall whose will was proved De- cember 19, 1440, and who was born before I400.

(II) John (2) Hammond, of Lavenham, was son of John (I) Hammond, the fuller, and was born about 1500. His will was dated December 22, 1550. He married Agnes who died at Lavenham, January 6, 1576-77. Children : I. William, mentioned below. 2. Thomas, married Rose Tripp and had a son William who came to America. 3. Elizabeth. 4. Margaret, married Jollye. 5. Joan.

(IV) Thomas, son of William Hammond, was the immigrant ancestor of this branch of

the family. He was baptized at Melford, county Suffolk, England, with his twin brother John, September 2, 1603. He was a first cousin of William Hammond, who set- tled in Watertown, Massachusetts. He was one of the first settlers at Hingham, Massa- chusetts, and had land granted him there in 1636. He took the freeman's oath March 9, 1636-37. He was a member of the grand jury in 1637. With several others he re- moved to a site near the boundary line be- tween what are now the towns of Newton and Brookline. He probably removed to Cambridge Village, now

Newton, about 1650, but held lands in Hingham for some years after that date. His homestead in Newton was near the Brookline boundary near a sheet of water which has since been called Hammond's pond. This homestead re- mained in the family for many generations. Thomas Hammond was a large land owner and one of the wealthiest men of the town in his day. He died in 1675, leaving an unsigned will which was admitted to probate Novem- , iv-28

ber 5, 1675. He married in Lavenham, Eng- land, November 12, 1623, Elizabeth, born in Great Welnetham, daughter of Robert and Prudence (Hammond) Cason, and grand- daughter of Robert and Elizabeth Hammond, of Great Welnetham. It is said that a silver coin is still in the possession of descendants which was stamped by her when on a visit to the mint in England when she was a young girl. Children : I. Thomas, mentioned be- low. 2. Elizabeth, born about 1633-34. 3. Sarah, baptized September 13, 1640. 4. Na- thaniel, baptized March 12, 1643.

He was a farmer and lived on the homestead which was left him by his father. He married, December 17, 1662, Eliz- abeth Stedman, who died in 1715, probably a sister of Nathaniel Stedman, who married Sarah Hammond. Children : I. Elizabeth, born November 3, 1664. 2. Thomas, Decem- ber 16, 1666, mentioned below. 3. Isaac (twin), December 20, 1668. 4. Sarah (twin), December 20, 1668. 5. Nathaniel, February 3, 1671 ; probably died young. 6. John, April 30, 1674. 7.

(VIII) Daniel, son of John (3) Hammond, was born in Newton, October 18, 1727, died there in 1777. He was a soldier in the French war in the expedition against Cape Breton. In the siege of Louisburg in 1758 he con- tracted rheumatism from exposure, which eventually made him a cripple, and for the last fifteen years of his life he was bedridden most of the time. The following verses are part of an anonymous poem called The Newe- ton Patriot :

"'Tis one of these yeoman whose praises I sing; At Louisburg's siege he had fought for the King; Adjoining the pond honoured still by his name In Newton he lived-although unknown to fame.

He shouldered his musket-his crutch laid away- And marched with the Newton Alarm Men that day, Although for nigh fifteen long years he had lain Prostrated since Louisburgh's trying campaign.

Hark, Hark, 'Tis the signal, Now up and away. ''Tis the British are marching to Concord today.' Then old Daniel Hammond reached out for his gun, And waving his cocked hat he cried, 'Count me one.'"

He was in Captain Brown's company, Col- onel William Williams' regiment, in 1758 in the expedition against Canada; in Captain William Angier's company, Colonel Joseph Frye's regiment, in 1759 and again in 1760 in service in Nova Scotia. He was a mem- ber of Captain Amariah Fuller's company which marched to Cambridge on the Lexing- ton alarm, April 19, 1775. His family be- came almost destitute on account of his in- firmities, and some of the children were bound out. He married, April 17, 1751, Lucy, born in Worcester about 1727, died in Pitts- ford, Vermont, 1799, daughter of Captain Nathaniel and Mary Jones.

(IX) Colonel Thomas (4), son of Daniel Hammond, was born in Newton, February 20, 1762, died at Pittsford, Vermont, April 4, 1847. At an early age he was apprenticed to a distant relative, a well-to-do farmer of Leicester, and remained with him from the age of four until he was twenty-one years of age. He is said to have enlisted in the conti-

mental army in 1778, when he was but sixteen years of age, and to nave served nine months, but no official record of such service has been found. He enlisted July 5, 1780, in Cap- tain Frothingham's artillery company, and served until December II of that year. He is described as of Leicester, aged eighteen years, stature five feet, ten inches, complex- ion light. He served in New York and was present at the execution of Major Andre, October 2, 1780. At the age of twenty-one he set out on foot and went from Leicester to Shaftsbury, Vermont, and went to work for Colonel Ichabod Cross, whose daughter he married. Colonel Cross gave him a tract of land in Pittsford, where he settled in 1786. He became one of the leading citizens of the town and held many town offices. He was a delegate to the constitutional convention in 1791. In 1794 he was elected to the state legislature, and served ten years between that time and 1813. He was active in the militia and rose to the rank of colonel. He was as- sistant county judge six years, and a member of the executive council of the state four years. In 1812 he, with a few others, organ- ized the Pittsford Manufacturing Company for the manufacture of woolen cloth, and was president of the company. He rose from a penniless and ill-educated youth to a posi- tion of eminence, affluence and honor in the state.

(IV) Captain Samuel (2), son of Samuel (I) and Mary (Foster) Cary, was born in Charlestown, Massachusetts, November 29.

1713, and graduated from Harvard College in 1731. He followed the sea and was known as Captain Cary. It is not certain at just what time he took up his residence in Chelsea, where his death is mentioned in the church records as December 7, 1769, although Wy- man gives it as the 4th and his burial on the 7th, "from his brother Richard's house in Charlestown". Samuel Watts in his memor- andum book says: "Capt. Cary Dyed betwen the 3d & fourth of December, 1769". The family genealogy gives the date of his death as December 8. He married, December 24, 1741, Margaret Greaves, born July 19, 1719, died October 18, 1762. She is described as "small in person, plain, being pitted with smallpox, but very intelligent and active, and assisted her father frequently in his apothe- cary shop". Her great-grandparents were Thomas Greaves (or Graves) and Katherine, daughter of the widow Coitmore.

Thomas Greaves was born in Ratcliffe, par- ish of Stepney, county of Middlesex, England, June 6, 1605, and was baptized at the church of St. Dunsten in that parish June 16 same year. He came early to America, was made freeman in 1640, owned land both in Woburn and Charlestown, and with his wife was ad- mitted to the church in 1639. Before coming to this country he had been a sea captain, and after his settlement here followed the same occupation. During the protectorate of Crom- well, while on a mercantile voyage, he sig- nalized himself in an engagement with a Dutch privateer, which he captured. The owners of the vessel presented him with a sil- ver punchbowl which is still preserved in Ash- ford Hall, England, and Cromwell promoted him to the command of a ship of war, with the title of rear-admiral. Thomas Greaves, grandson of Thomas and Katherine Greaves and father of Margaret Greaves, who married Samuel Cary, married (first) Sybil Avery, who was the mother of all his children, and married (second) the widow of Edward Watts, of Chelsea. After her death he mar- ried (third) Phoebe, widow of Edward Vas- sall, of Boston. It was through the widow Watts that the Chelsea farm came into the Cary family, a subject which will be more fully mentioned in a later paragraph.

Captain Samuel and Margaret (Greaves) Cary had four children : I. Samuel, born Sep- tember 20, 1742. 2. Thomas, October 7, 1745. 3. Jonathan, October 21, 1749. 4: Abigail Coit. In this connection it is well to mention that Captain Cary's will was dated November

2192

MASSACHUSETTS.

14, 1763, and was admitted to probate Decem- ber 29, 1769. After a gift of a house in Bos- ton to his eldest son Samuel, he left the re- mainder of his estate, including the Cary farm in Chelsea, to his three sons-Samuel, then in business in St. Kitts, Granada; Thomas, minister at Newburyport; and Jonathan.

(V) Samuel (3) Cary, Esquire, eldest son of Captain Samuel (2) and Margaret (Greaves) Cary, was born September 20, 1742, and died in Chelsea, Massachusetts, Au- gust 1, 1812. He was educated at Harvard College, and fitted especially for mercantile pursuits. Soon afterward he went to St. Kitts, Granada, where for many years he was engaged in buying and selling cargoes, but finally became a planter. On one of his visits home he became acquainted with Sarah, only daughter of Ellis Gray, of Boston, born 1753, whom he married November 5, 1772. They began their married life in the old mansion in Chelsea, which had been suitably furnished for them. The next summer Mr. Cary re- turned to Granada, leaving his wife and her mother presumably at Chelsea, for there she joined the church August 1, 1773, and there, according to the family genealogy, their son Samuel was born October 7, 1773. During the following winter she left her infant son with her mother in Chelsea, joined her hus- band in Granada, and lived there for the next eighteen years. Having accumulated what he considered a comfortable fortune, Mr. Cary returned to Chelsea July 2, 1791, leaving his eldest son to carry on the business, but bring- ing with him his wife and their seven chil- dren, born in Granada, and three black ser- vants, of whom only one, Fanny Fairweather, ended her days in Chelsea. Mr. Cary remod- eled the old house in Chelsea at a cost of $12,- 000, making it a splendid specimen of colonial architecture. At that time there were no trees about the place, but he soon planted the east and west avenues with elms, bordered the grounds between Broadway and Washington avenue with hawthorn shrubs whichi grew to trees, made a dyke across Chelsea creek, which gave him a fine fishing pond, and other- wise so improved his lands that in due time the estate, known as "The Retreat", became one of the most beautiful in the vicinity of Boston.

The Cary farm in Chelsea has an interest- ing history. It is the largest and most favor- ably situated of the Bellingham farms, and fairly divided into upland and meadow it was the most productive of them : unlike many of

the great Chelsea farms, in its earlier days and later days it was occupied by its proprie- tors, and four generations of Carys were born or have lived on it. By deed of sale dated February 27, 1634, "Sam Maverick and Amias his wife, and John Blackleach and his wife, granted and sold to Richard Bellingham and his heirs a messuage called Winnisimmet, with appurtenances ; also his interest in the ferry." Governor Bellingham's son Samuel, a widow- er with one daughter, married in London a widow named Elizabeth Savage. He inherit- ed from his father estates . in Chelsea, then called Winnisimmet, and this property was placed in trust for Mr. Bellingham and his wife, and at her death was to go by will to whomever she made her devisee; or failing in any way, to her next of kin. She died at sea, and her will being decided to be invalid, the estate passed to her sister, Mrs. Watts, who afterward married Thomas Greaves of Charlestown. Mrs. Watts left her property of three hundred and sixty-five acres to her stepdaughter Margaret Greaves. (Cary Let- ters.)

Margaret Greaves became the wife of Cap- tain Samuel Cary, whose heirs sold the estate to The Cary Improvement Company for $150,- 000. On February 2, 1851, Henry Cary, Anne M. Cary, Harriet Cary, Thomas G. Cary, George B. Cary, Robert H. Cary and William T. Cary, seven of the surviving children of Samuel and Sarah Cary, each owning one tenth of the estate, and the four surviving children of Sarah Tuckerman, widow of Rev. Joseph Tuckerman and daughter of Samuel and Sarah Cary, conveyed their interests in the farm to Charles Cary, for $120,000. He acquired another one-tenth share from the as- signees of Margaret Cary, and on September 5, 1851, he conveyed the farm to Joseph W. Clark, for the consideration of $150,000. On May 1, 1852, Joseph Clark, of Dedham, con- veyed the same to The Cary Improvement Company. Charles S., Ann M. and Harriet Cary retained the mansion house and 38,164 square feet of land. So far as the records show, the lands of The Cary Improvement Company in 1852 were identical with the farm set off to Thomas and Ann Greaves in 1728, not withstanding the fact that in 1765 the farm was estimated to contain 365 acres; in 1728, 300 acres. ("Chelsea History").

In the course of time, however, misfortune befell Samuel Cary, the Granada merchant and planter. The negro insurrection of 1795 in the West Indies imperilled and chiefly de-

stroyed the value of his large property in Granada, and in the hope of saving it he went there, but on the voyage was taken prisoner by the French and only with great difficulty saved his own life. On his return to Chelsea he was obliged to accommodate himself to new conditions, and two of his sons assisted him with the work of cultivating his farm. He died August 1, 1812. His wife died in 1825. They had thirteen children, the first one and last four of whom were born in Chel- sea, the other eight at Granada : I. Samuel, born Chelsea, October 17, 1773, died at sea, 1810. 2. Margaret, 1775, died 1868. 3. Charles Spooner, 1778, died 1866. 4. Lucius, 1782, died in England, 1826. 5. Sarah, 1783, died Boston, 1838; married Rev. Joseph Tuck- erman. 6. Henry, 1785, died Florence, 1857. 7. Ann Montague, 1787, died 1882. 8. Ed- ward, 1789, died 1808. 9. Harriet, 1790, died 1873. 10. Thomas Greaves, 1791. II. George Blankern, 1792, died 1880. 12. Robert How- ard, 1794, died 1867. 13. William Ferdinand, 1795, died 1881.

(VI) Thomas Greaves, son and tenth child of Samuel (3) and Sarah (Gray) Cary, was born at Chelsea, Massachusetts, in the year 1791. He went to school at Billerica, and was a graduate of Harvard College. He began life in the practice of the law, but was led by cir- cumstances to become a partner in the busi- ness firm of his elder brother, Henry Cary, in New York. Later he became partner in the house of Perkins & Co. in Boston. After the dissolution of this celebrated firm, he was appointed treasurer of the Hamilton & Apple- ton Companies in Lowell, offices which he held until the time of his death.

In the year 1821, on a Friday in May, Thomas Greaves Cary married Mary Anne Cushing, daughter of Thomas Handasyd and Sarah Elliot Perkins.
