The surname Maloney or
MALONEY Malone is of ancient Irish origin. The ancient seat of this family is at Ballynahoun and Baronstown, Ireland. Richard Malone, 'of Baronstown, was created Baron of Sunderlin in 1785. His brother, Edmund Malone, was the celebrated commentator on Shakespeare. The armorial bearings of the Malone or Maloney family of Ireland are: Gu. a lion rampant between three mullets or.

He received his edu- cation in the national schools of his native town, and to the age of fourteen helped his father on the farm. At the age of nineteen he came to America, arriving June 1, 1874, in Boston, and immediately finding employment in Woburn in the street department of the town. After a short time he went to Law- rence. In 1875 he began an apprenticeship with the firm of Skinner & True, tanners, lasting three years. He worked at his trade in tanneries at Malden, Salem, and Stoneham for two years. Then he became clerk in the grocery store of Moore & Morris, Main street, Woburn, and worked their until he left to embark in business for himself. In 1881 he and his brother, Michael Maloney, mentioned
above, formed a partnership to carry on the grocery business in Woburn, in the building at the corner of Main and Salem street, under the firm name of Maloney Brothers. They built up a thriving business. After twenty- three . successful years together, John bought out his brother, continuing since at the old stand. The building in which his store is now located is known as the Flagg Tavern and has an interesting history. Mr. Maloney has a large trade in Woburn and Winchester among the best families. He owns the prop- erty in which his store is located and much real estate in the city, notably the old Rich- ardson estate at the corner of Salem and Bow streets.

This surname was variously
DIKE spelled in the early Colonial days,
and descendants of the same pro- genitor today differ widely in the spelling of their names. The descendants of Anthony Dike, of Salem, for instance, spell their

names, Dix, Dixi, Dick, Dixie, Dixer, and Dixey, perhaps in other ways. Other early spellings found were Dickes, Deike, Deeks, Dixe, Dykes. The attempts to trace these families is rendered very difficult by the var- iations of spelling. The names of the immi- grants bearing this name, but spelled in a mul- titude of ways were: Anthony of Salem and Ipswich, Massachusetts; Edward of Charles- town and Watertown; Ralph of Ipswich and Reading; Thomas of Marblehead; William of Salem and Beverly, all of Massachusetts, all within a few miles of each other. The pre- sumption that they were brothers or closely related seems reasonable.
(I) Anthony Dike, the immigrant ancestor, was born in England. He was a merchant and ship-master. He came to America first in 1623 on the ship "Ann" and took a share in the division of land at Plymouth in 1624. But be- fore 1627 he had left New Plymouth and did not share in the division of cattle that year. He joined Conant in the Massachusetts Bay Colony and made his home with the first set- tlers at Salem. He was admitted a freeman, May 18, 1631. In 1632 he was taken prisoner by the pirate Bull, refused to act as pilot and was allowed to escape through perhaps inten- tional carelessness of guards. He resided in Charlestown or Salem in 1637, but must have been away on the sea most of the time. Roger Conant, Francis Johnson, Peter Palfrey and Dike formed a partnership for traffic in furs and had a truck-house located at the eastward (in Maine). After doing business for three years, they sold out to Richard Foxwell at Blue Point, near Saco, Maine, with debts due from certain Indians, provided Massachusetts authorities confirmed the sale. But there was trouble about getting the consent and Foxwell was later dispossessed by French traders. Dike appears to have continued in the business. He had a cargo of furs, etc., from Maine when wrecked on Cape Cod in the storm December 15, 1638. In that same gale Dinely perished at Boston (Danforth's Almanac). Winthrop spelled the name "Dick," Felt preferred "Dike" and both "Dikes" and "Dickes" are found in the same record.
His widow's land is mentioned in a deed dated July 25, 1639, at Salem. She appears to have settled at Ipswich, later. She married (second) Nathaniel Pickman (Pitman). Pit- man was also a partner of Conant in the eas- tern trade, was born about 1615, probably the age of Dike. Tabitha, his wife, deposed in 1657 concerning her marriage to Pitman after the death of her husband Dike. Pitman died
1685. The only child of Anthony and Tabitha known was Anthony, mentioned below.
(II) Anthony Dike, son of Anthony Dike (I), was born in Salem or vicinity about 1635. He resided in Ipswich where he and his son Nathaniel were both commoners in 1707. His only child known was Nathaniel, born about 1665, mentioned below. (See history of Sut- ton).
(III) Nathaniel Dike, son of Anthony Dike (2), was born probably in Ipswich, Massachu- setts, about 1665. He was a soldier in the Ex- pedition to Canada under Phipps in 1690, his name appearing twice in the list. One may be for another of similar name, but more likely is a repetition. He had a seat in the church at Ipswich in 1700, and was a commoner there in 1707. When the movement of settlers from Ipswich and other Essex county towns to Sut- ton, Massachusetts, began, Dike became inter- ested. His family was grown up or nearly so. Accordingly July 19, 1720, he, then of Ipswich, bought a tract of one hundred and thirty-six acres of land adjoining the farm of John Stock- well, Joseph Fellows, Samuel Bigsbee, Samuel Parker, Caleb Bigsbee and Benjamin Marsh and moved immediately to Sutton. He and his wife joined the church soon after it was or- ganized in 172I.
During his active life Dike lived on his Sut- ton farm, but his last years were spent with some of his children in Dudley, where he died in the summer of 1746. In 1734 he deeded the Sutton homestead to Daniel, his son. He made his will May 2, 1746; it was filed for probate August, 1746, and proved August 19. His son Ebenezer was executor. He mentions also sons Daniel, Benjamin, James; daughters Hannah, Martha, Sarah and Mary. The wit- nesses were Jacob and Mary Bradbury and Jeremiah Barstow. Children, born at Ipswich : I. Nathaniel, born about 1690. 2. Hannah, married Robert Fitts, of Ipswich. 3. Sarah, married, July 4, 1726, William Sibley. 4. Martha, married, August 6, 1722, at Sutton, Samuel Daggett. 5. Mary, married Joseph Wight or Wait (Weight in will, also Waight). 6. Daniel, settled in Sutton, had a son Anthony ; died February 18, 1777, aged about sixty-six ; married, September 26, 1734, Mary Witt, of Marlborough, who died August 6, 1785, at Sutton, aged seventy-three. 7. Ebenezer, born about 1700, mentioned below. 8. Benjamin, removed to Thompson, Connecticut ; wife died March 21, 1782, about fifty-eight years old, and is buried in Sutton. 9. James, removed to Thompson, Connecticut, and died there.
(IV) Ebenezer Dike, son of Nathaniel Dike

(3), was born in Ipswich, Massachusetts, about 1700-1710 and moved with his father and the family to Sutton, Massachusetts, in 1720. In middle life he removed to Woodstock, Ver- mont, where he was one of the founders. He was appointed to take the census by the gov- ernment in 1771, and reported forty-two in- habitants in the families of Andrew Powers, Abraham Powers, James Herwood, James Sanderson, Joseph Call, John Sanderson, Ebe- nezer Call, James Powers and Ebenezer Dike. The history of Woodstock says that Dike was rather advanced in point of education over his neighbors. He had a hundred acre lot adjoin- ing the Sanderson farm on the west, the deed of which he did not receive until June 6, 1774, David Slayton, grantor. His farm was in the southeast part of the town. He made various additions. In 1802 he (or son Ebenezer) sold a section, the largest part, one hundred and thirty-seven acres, to Haskell Pelton, of Chatham, Connecticut, and in 1805 the balance of about sixty acres to Arnold Smith. He never took an, active part in town affairs, and his descendants finally removed from the town altogether. He had a grandson Calvin in the War of 1812 from Woodstock. Children: I. Ebenezer, soldier in the Revolution in 1777, Captain Seth Hodges's company, Colonel Jo- seph Marsh's regiment; probably had the homestead after his father. 2. Alden or Adin, soldier in the Revolution in 1778 in Captain Jesse Safford's company; in 1776 in Captain Benjamin Wait's company (perhaps from Sut- ton) ; in 1781 in Captain John Benjamin's company. 3. Nathan, soldier in Revolution in Vermont company of Captain Benjamin Cox, regiment of Colonel Seth Warner; also in 1780. 4. Samuel, soldier in same company with Nathan 1780; in Captain John Burt's 1779; in Captain Peter Page's company in 1781; in Captain Samuel Payne's company, Major John Wheelock's regiment, in 1777, and in Captain Samuel Ashley's company, Whee- lock's regiment, in 1777. All the sons served in Vermont organizations. 5. Calvin, mentioned below. Probably daughters, names unknown. (V) Calvin Dike, son of Ebenezer Dike (4), was born about 1750. He removed to Stone- ham after the Revolution, and was a taxpayer there in 1784. He was a soldier in the Revolu- tion, a private in Captain Jesse Safford's com- pany from January 18, to December 1, 1780, from Woodstock, Vermont. He occupied a farm in Stoneham near Spot pond in the south- western part of the town. He married Abigail Holden. Only child, Jesse, born in Stoneham, January 2, 1785, mentioned below.
(VI) Jesse Dike, son of Calvin Dike (5), was born in Stoneham, Massachusetts, Janu- ary 2, 1785, and spent his entire life in the vicinity of his birthplace. He was educated in the public schools there. He learned the trade of shoemaker and made shoes for a livelihood during his active years. He died in Stoneham,. April 20, 1860. He was a prominent citizen in public life. He was one of three men who were. the means of establishing the Universalist church in his town, and it was due to his. earnest efforts that the society weathered its early storms. He remained always a faithful member of the church, and his character was a model ; liberal in judgment, charitable in spirit and deed, sympathetic and helpful in every way possible. He held every position of trust and honor within the gift of his townsmen. In politics he was a Democrat. He was for twenty years a member of the Stoneham school committee, and in 1859-60 represented the town in the general court. He was devoted to the interests and welfare of his native town, and no public officer was more earnest in the discharge of his duties.
He married, December 23, 1804, Elizabeth Willey, daughter of Nathan and Priscilla Wil- ley, of Stoneham. Children : I. Alfred, born March, 1805, died September 12, 1872; mar- ried Sallie Jones, of Woburn; children : Dens- more and Henry. 2. George Willey, born April 14, 1807, mentioned below. 3. Solon, born March 21, 1810, died January 27, 1883 ; married Elizabeth Greene ; children : Augustus, Warren, Clara, Ella, Francis and Clara (sec- ond). 4. Nathaniel D., born August 28, 1814, died December 2, 1828; accidentally shot. 5. Elizabeth, born December 15, 1816, died June 2, 1906; married Samuel Hosea; children : Samuel, George F., Mary E.

(VII) George W. Dike, son of Jesse Dike (6), was born in Stoneham, April 14, 1807. He was educated in the common schools, and learned the trade of shoe making, the trade of all the farmers of the vicinity. He com- menced business on his own account at his father's house on Marble street. The west end of this house is in Winchester, the eastern end in Stoneham. He manufactured his shoes and at first carried them on his back to the Boston markets, returning with the stock in

the same way. Subsequently, he moved to a building on the present site of Arad Gerry's residence and, besides making shoes, had a general store and was the village postmaster. Later he moved to the present site of Holden Brothers' store, and finally to the building owned by H. H. Mawhinney on Central street, built for their factory by Lyman and George W. Dike.
Mr. Dike was in his day one of the most prominent citizens of the town. He was elected to all the important offices of trust and honor by his townsmen; selectman, over- seer of the poor, assessor, highway surveyor, town treasurer, member of the school com- mittee, trustee of the Public Library, trustee of Lindenwood cemetery, town auditor, etc. He was a member of the council during Gov- ernor Boutwell's administration. He was Democratic candidate for congress in the for- ties against Daniel P. Ring, of Danvers, the Whig leader. He was postmaster under President Polk. President Taylor displaced him, appointing John Hill. At the next change of administration Dike was re-ap- pointed, losing the office again under Bu- chanan, Edward T. Whittier being appointed. One simple duty he used to do efficiently and with some pleasure-taking the census of school children. In this way he kept up an acquaintance with every family in town. He liked politics and was interested all his life in public questions. He sold periodicals and newspapers, and his store was a great cen- tre of political discussion and argument in which no one delighted more than Mr. Dike. He was a prominent and popular Odd Fellow, had passed through the chairs of his lodge, and had been representative to the grand lodge. He died July 5, 1883.
