bury, June 27, 1804. Married, April 7, 1826, Caroline Frances Frost, born at Charlestown, Massachusetts, March 26, 1805, daughter of Samuel and Dorcas Frost, of Somerville (Charlestown), Massachusetts. (See Frost family sketch). He died at South Natick, Massachusetts, December 12, 1869. He was educated in the public schools and engaged in the wood and coal business. About 1847 he located his business and home at South Natick, Massachusetts, and continued in busi- ness there the remainder of his days. Chil- dren: I. Caroline Elizabeth, born February 4, 1827. 2.

(IX) Warren Augustus Bird, son of Charles (8) and Caroline F. (Frost) Bird, was born in Cambridge, Massachusetts, October 14, 1837. He attended the public schools of his native town and of Somerville. He worked for his father until the Civil war broke out and then he enlisted in Company I, Fifth Massachusetts Regiment. He took part with his regiment in the first battle of Bull Run. For a time afterward he was assigned to guard duty at the Treasury Building, Wash- ington. After Colonel Ellsworth was killed, he was assigned to guard duty at the Mar- shall House in Alexandria, Virginia, the scene of the crime. After his term of enlistment ex- pired he returned to Cambridge. He re- moved to South Natick, and when his father died in 1869 he continued the business which his father had established at South Natick. After a few years he removed his office and yards to the center of the town, and continued with uninterrupted success until shortly before his death, when ill health caused him to re- tire. His name was well and favorably known in business circles throughout southern Middlesex county. An upright and hon- orable business man, he held the con- fidence of his customers, year after year, by fair dealing and integrity. He made many friends in business as well as in the so- cial world. It was natural for him to attract friends and in his more active days no man was more popular or beloved than he.

He was a useful citizen in public life. In politics he was an uncompromising Demo- crat of the old school. In a town usually fav- oring the party to which he belonged he be- came naturally a leader. For many years he served the town as moderator of town meet- ings, and for a long period of years he was

an active and prominent member of the Dem- ocratic town committee. He was on the board of selectmen in 1883-84-85; he repre- sented the town in the general court in 1876- 77-82. He was delegate year after year to the state and other conventions of the Dem- ocratic party, and frequently presided at the caucuses and conventions. Mr. Bird was prominent too in Masonic circles. He was a member of Meridian Lodge of Free Masons; of Parker Royal Arch Chapter of Natick and of Natick Commandery, Knights Templar; of the Aleppo Temple of the Mystic Shrine, Boston. He was also a member of General Wadsworth Post No. 63, Grand Army. He died at Waverly, Massachusetts, where he had been cared for during his last few months, September 9, 1907. Mr. Bird married (first), July 9, 1862, Alvira Adelaide Sleeper, who died 1885, daughter of George L. Sleeper. He married (second) Mary Elizabeth Kingsbury, born at Walpole, Massachusetts, May 28, 1850, daughter of Nathaniel Davis and Sarah (Guild) Kingsbury.

Edith Ja- nett, born June 15, 1869, died April 19, 1890.

The Jarvis family is of French JARVIS or Norman' origin. The origi- nal spelling was Gervais. As early as 1180, at the very beginning of the use of surnames, we find Richard Gervasius (the Latin spelling of the name), and in 1400 Jean Gervais was living at the ancient seat of the family in Bretagne. The variations of spelling from time to time and through the ingenuity of various clerks and recorders are very numerous. We note: Jervis, Jervies, Jervoys, Jarveis, Gervaise, Gervays, Gerveis, Garvey (found in Ireland at present), Jar- vice, Gervase, Gervais, Gervasius and Gervys. The most ancient coat-of-arms of this family given in French is thus described: D'or a une pomme de pin placee au canton dextre au chief ; et un chouette placee au canton senestre accompagne en pointe d'un crapaud, le tout de sable. This is a very singular de-

vice. One can imagine anything he chooses to explain the association of a pine apple and a frog on the same shield. Motto: Adversis Major Par Secundis. (Strong in Prosperity, Stronger in Adversity.) Another coat of arms of the Jarvis family of England: Sable on a chevron engraved between three mart- lets argent as many cinquefoils pierced of the first on a chief of the second a fleur de lis between three escallops of the field. Crest: A unicorn's head gorged with a collar charged with three cinquefoils.

Immigrants of this name came to New England among the earliest settlers. John Jarvis, a merchant of Boston, died September 28, 1648. Captain Nathaniel Jarvis, born in Wales, comanded a ship plying between Bris- tol, England, and Jamaica, where he married the widow of a rich planter and in 1668 settled in Boston and became a prominent merchant. Stephen Jarvis was an early settler at Hunt- ington, Long Island. From these immigrants descended most of the families of the name in New England and New York. During the Revolution a British brig lay off Norwalk, Connecticut, commanded by an officer named Jarvis, who sent word by a merchant who went aboard from shore: "Give my compli- ments to them (the Jarvis family of Norwalk) and tell them their cousin, John Jarvis, would be happy to see them and make their ac- quaintance." This John Jarvis subsequently became the Earl St. Vincent.

(I) Edward Jarvis, the immigrant ances- tor of this family, came from Eton, near Lon- don, England. During the War of 1812, he served in the British army and was at Castine, Maine, when the English cut away the bridge. Curiously enough, about this time, the Jarvis family was represented by a branch at Castine and several other Maine towns: The similar- ity of names indicates at least some remote relationship. After the war Mr. Jarvis re- mained in America and located at Borden- ham, Maine. In his youth in England he learned the trade of tanner and currier and followed it at Eton, and after he left the army he returned to his trade in this country. He finally established a tannery in Gardiner, Maine, built up a flourishing business which was continued by his sons, Kingsbury and William. He died at the advanced age of eighty-three in 1876; his wife Catherine Mil- lay, born April 21, 1794, died in 1869. She was a daughter of John Millay. He was a Whig in politics, an Episcopalian in religion. His brother James has descendants living in Peabody, Massachusetts, where he settled;

other brothers and sisters, Edward, John, Jo- seph, Maria and Ann resided at Eton, Eng- land. Children: I. Abigail, born May 24, 1817, in Bordenham, married John Stone, now deceased; had three children. 2. Jere- miah Joseph, born at Bordenham, May 2, 1819, married Eliza Starbird; died in Cali- fornia; his daughter, Mrs. Bush, resides in Denver, Colorado. 3. Mary Ann, born Octo- ber 8, 1821, at Bordenham, died August 24, 1838. 4. William Edward, born at Gardiner, Maine, May 23, 1822, died 1906; married El- vira Maxcy, of Gardiner; children: Frank, George, William and Horatio. 5. Kingsbury Millay, born June 9, 1827, mentioned below. 6. George Henry, (twin), born February 15, 1831, died January 4, 1852. 7. Lucy Holman, (twin), born February 15, 1831, married El- bert Tyler and had Victoria and Joseph Ty- ler. 8. Ann Warren, born December 20, 1835, married C. Everett Johnson; children: Catherine and Lucy Johnson. 9. Horatio Nelson, born April 6, 1838, enlisted in the Third Maine Volunteers, a famous fighting regiment, and died from wounds received at the' Second Battle of Bull Run during a charge on the enemy's lines.

(II) Kingsbury Millay Jarvis, son of Ed- ward Jarvis (1), was born at Gardiner, Maine, June 9, 1827. He received a common school education in the public schools of his native town, and at an early age entered his father's employ in the tannery and became associated with him in the management of the business. After their father's death he and his brother William conducted the business until 1862 when he removed to Boston. Eight months later he accepted a position in Peabody as superintendent of a tannery. In 1872, on ac- count of the financial troubles, the business met with reverses, and a year later after that business had been wound up he established the Jarvis Furnace Company in partnership with a Mr. Upham, his former employer. The company began the manufacture of a furnace which he had invented and patented while at . Peabody. The business prospered and grew extensively. After a few years a large cor- poration called the Jarvis Engineering Com- pany was formed under the laws of Massa- chusetts, and took over the business. The headquarters of the concern have been for some years in Oliver street, Boston. Owing to the ill health of his wife, Mr. Jarvis retired from business in 1906, selling out his inter- ests, and has since then been enjoying a well earned leisure at his beautiful home on Main street, Malden, where he has lived since 1884,

and in Malden since 1879. Mr. Jarvis is a Republican in politics, but has held no public offices. He is a member of no clubs nor so- cieties, having devoted himself to his home and business with few outside interests. In the business world Mr. Jarvis has the best of reputations for ability and integrity. He is well known and highly respected by his townsmen.

He married, March 17, 1867, Ellen Smart, who was born April 7, 1840, at Washington, Maine, daughter of Alfred Smart, a black- smith by occupation and Baptist in religion, born September 15, 1804, died in Gardiner, July 23, 1878. Her mother was Hannah Dodge, born at Washington, Maine, daugh- ter of David Dodge, a native of Scotland. David Dodge married Susan Crummit, born at Nobleboro, Maine, daughter of an English- man. Her grandfather, Levi Smart, was a Methodist in religion and a farmer by occu- pation, lived and died at Vassalboro, Maine. He married (first) Betsey Cowan, children: Alfred Smart, Harrison Smart, Betsey Smart ; married (second) Olive Tibbets, children: John Smart, Lydia Ann Smart, Emily Smart, Lucy Smart, Mary Smart, Olive Smart. Al- fred Smart's grandfather lived to be one hun- dred years old. Mr. and Mrs. Jarvis have no children. Mrs. Jarvis is an active and promi- nent member of the Universalist church of Malden, Massachusetts.

The first American ancestor of TILTON the Tiltons in New Hampshire and probably of those of Maine was Deacon Nathaniel Tilton. Harvard Col- lege records the name of Daniel Tilton, United States judge of Mississippi Territory, who graduated with the class of 1790, and died in 1830. Nathan Tilton, A. B., 1796, A. M., who died in 1851. Joseph Tilton, A. B., 1797, A. M., who died in 1856. In the Quin- quennial Catalogue of 1900 there are ten oth- ers by the name of Tilton among the gradu- ates, two of whom are sons of Frederic W. Tilton. We begin the family record in Cam- bridge with Benjamin Tilton, the son of Ben- jamin Tilton, a sea captain, who resided in Damariscotta, Maine, and Betsey (Hood) Til- ton.

Benjamin Tilton, son of Benjamin Tilton, the mariner. He was born in Damariscotta, Maine, August 25, 1805. He came to Boston in a sailing vessel in the year 1821, and there became a clerk in a dry goods store. He gradually amassed a fortune, as fortunes in

those days were estimated, and he became a director in the Cambridgeport Bank. He was married in 1828 to Lucinda, daughter of Ebenezer and Anna (Whiting) Newell, and granddaughter of Colonel Daniel Whiting (1732-1807), of Natick, Massachusetts, an of- ficer in the French and Indian war and in the Patriot army during the American Revolu- tion. Benjamin and Lucinda (Newell) Til- ton lived first in Boston, then removed to Brookline, and in 1837 made their permanent home in Cambridge. Besides being a direc- tor of the Cambridgeport Bank, Mr. Tilton was instrumental in founding and organizing the Harvard Bank, which became the First National Bank of Cambridge in 1864, which in turn became the Harvard Trust Company, in 1904. Mr. Tilton was its president from its organization, March 5, 1861, to the time of- his death in November, 1882. He was also president of the Cambridgeport Savings Bank, 1854-1882. Under his presidency the Harvard Bank with its capital of $200,000 paid annual dividends of from six to twelve per cent. He was also associated with large business interests in Boston, and was always very successful in his investments. He served as treasurer of the Prospect Street Church, Cambridge, but later attended the First Church (Congregational) in Cambridge, of which Dr. Alexander McKenzie is pastor.

Henry Newell Tilton, eldest son of Benja- min and Lucinda (Newell) Tilton, was born in Boston, May 18, 1829. He was reared in Cambridge, where he attended the public schools, and became a member of the dry goods firm of H. N. & B. R. Tilton, of Bos- ton, his younger brother being junior partner. Later he went into the lumber business in Boston with his brother, Benjamin R. Gen- eral Robert Cowdin, who distinguished him- self in the Civil war, an experienced lumber merchant, was admitted to the firm at the close of the war, and the firm name became H. N. and B. R: Tilton & Cowdin. Mr. Til- ton retired from business in 1875. He was a director of the First National Bank of Cam- bridge, trustee of the Cambridgeport Savings Bank, member of the Cambridge Club and of the Colonial and Union clubs of Cambridge. He was a member of the Cambridge school board for many years, and a member of the Prospect Street Congregational Church, Cambridge, in which church organization he held the office of deacon. Later he attended the First Church, of which Dr. Alexander McKenzie is pastor. He was married Octo- ber 5, 1854, to Annie Matilda Adams, daugh-

ter of Ralph and Anna (Adams) Smith, a lin- eal descendant, on her mother's side, from Governors Dudley and Winthrop. They lived in Boston and later removed to Cam- bridge, which became their permanent home. Their children were: Annie Eugenia, who graduated at Smith College in 1883, and Florence Newell, who married Frank Perley Prichard, a lawyer of Philadelphia, Pennsyl- vania, and has two daughters, Margaret and Elizabeth Prichard. Henry Newell Tilton died at Cambridge, February II, 1904.

Benjamin Radcliffe Tilton, second son of Benjamin and Lucinda (Newell) Tilton, was born in Boston, August 22, 1831. He re- ceived his school training in the public schools of Cambridge. He became a partner with his brother, Henry N. Tilton, in the dry goods firm of H. N. & B. R. Tilton, of Bos- ton. He was a member of the city council of Cambridge, trustee and a member of the in- vestment committee of the Cambridgeport Savings Bank, held membership in the Cam- bridge Club, and was an active member of the Prospect Street Church, and later of the First Church. He was a highly esteemed and beloved citizen of Cambridge, and when he died in January, 1892, the community lost a useful man and the church a helpful member. He was married June 18, 1862, to Mary Lov- ering, daughter of Harrison Prescott, of Lan- caster. They had two children, Mabel Rad- cliffe, who married William Estes Hacker, of Tacoma, Washington, and Grace Prescott, who died when sixteen years of age. Mary (Prescott) Tilton, widow of Benjamin Rad- cliffe Tilton, died in Tacoma, November 21, 1906.

Frederic William Tilton, third son of Ben- jamin and Lucinda (Newell) Tilton, was born in Cambridge, May 14, 1839. He was a pupil in the Cambridge grammar and high schools, and matriculated at Harvard College in 1858 with the class of 1862. He graduated A. B., 1862, and received the degree of A. M., 1865. He was one of the first eight elected to the Phi Beta Kappa from his class. He took a post- graduate course in the University of Gottingen, 1863-64. On returning to this country, he taught three years in the Highland Military Academy, Worcester, Massachusetts, and in 1867 was elected superintendent of the public schools of Newport, Rhode Island. He be- came principal of Phillips Academy, Andov- er, Massachusetts, in 1871, having been se- lected by the trustees of that noted secondary school as successor to the eminent educator, Dr. Samuel H. Taylor, who had been at the

head of the school from 1838 to the time of his death, January 29, 1871, and who was nominated among the great educators of the United States as a candidate for a place in the Hall of Fame for Great Americans. Mr. Tilton remained at the head of Phillips Acad- emy, Andover, until, in 1873, he was invited to return to Newport to organize and become head master of Rogers High School, en- dowed by William Sanford Rogers, of Bos- ton. He continued at its head till 1890, when he retired from active educational work, and resided in Europe with his family till 1894. He served the citizens of Newport as a trus- tee and president of the Newport Hospital, and as a trustee of the Redwood Library. He was also a member of the first board of edu- cation organized in the state of Rhode Isl- and. On his return from Europe in 1894 he took up his residence in Cambridge, Massa- chusetts. He became a director in the Har- vard Trust Company, and a trustee and a member of the investment committee of the Cambridgeport Savings Bank, and has served as vice-president of the bank since 1904.

Frederic William Tilton was married July, 1864, to Ellen, daughter of John Howe and Adaline (Richardson) Trowbridge, grand- daughter of John and Sally (Howe) Trow- bridge, and of James and Elizabeth Richard- son, and a descendant from Chief Justice Trowbridge, of Cambridge Colony under George III. Her brother, John Trowbridge, born 1843, is the noted physicist who in 1897 completed an X-Ray apparatus with a battery of twenty thousand volts, a power greater than that of any other similar apparatus in the world, and by which he discovered that under certain conditions a vacuum is a good conductor of electricity, and that a discharge of lightning a mile long encounters no more resistance than a discharge of only a foot in length. The children of Frederic William and Ellen (Trowbridge) Tilton are:
