77. The Rev. Thomas Walley, rector of St. Mary's, Whitechapel, Lon- don, came here in 1663 with sons John and Thomas. Of these, John was a councillor, and commanded the expedition against Quebec in 1690. He was afterward judge of the superior court, and died in 1712. He had daughters married to Charles Chauncy and the Rev. Joseph Sewall, and a son John. This last married Bethiah Eyre, and had sons Rev. John (who died s. p.) and Thomas, who was a merchant in Boston, who by wife Sarah Hurd had daughters married to J. Langdon and Mayor John Phillips. Thomas Walley had also sons Thomas (who had twelve children) and Samuel Hall Walley; this last named married Miriam Phillips, and had a son, Samuel Hurd Wal- ley, who died a few years ago, a lawyer, a representative in Congress, and well known in the days of the Whig supremacy here.


78. William Ballentine was one of the first settlers here, and by wife Hannah Holland had twelve children. His son, Captain John Ballentine, was a representative, and by wife Lydia had sons John and William. John Ballentine, Jr., his son, was of Harvard College, clerk C. C. P., and register of deeds for Suffolk. He married Mary, daughter of Adam Winthrop, and

had sons John, Mary, and William. Of these, John was a minister at West- field, and died in 1776; he married Mary, daughter of Luther Gay, and had three sons and two daughters. The name frequently occurs on our records.


79. A family of the very similar name of Valentine has long lived here. The founder was John Valentine, an Englishman, a lawyer, notary, etc., who died in 1724. He married Mary, only child of Samuel Lynde, and had seven children. The oldest son went to England, where he inherited an estate ; his wife was a daughter of Jarvis Ballard. The sons of John were of Hopkinton and Fall River; but many of the descendants of the name have returned to Boston, and have been engaged in business here.


80. The Cushings are of a family which first settled at Hingham, be- ginning with Matthew Cushing. John, his youngest son, was an assistant, married Sarah Hawkes, and had a son Thomas, of Boston, who was a thomas bushing Just- councillor. This last mar- ried Deborah Thaxter and Mary Wensley, and had several children.


His son Thomas was speaker, and married a daughter of Edward Bromfield, by whom he had Thomas, speaker and lieutenant-governor, 1780-88. The family has been especially famous for the number of judges it has furnished, - three to our supreme court, one to the supreme court of the United States, and others to inferior courts. As their main home has been so near Boston, many of the name have been citi- zens here; and the present generation will remember the famous merchant John P. Cushing, son of Robert C. and grandson of John C. of Belle House; Scituate. All the bearers of the name here are probably descended from Matthew Cushing of Hingham.


81. The Huguenot element in Boston has furnished us with several prom- inent names.1 The Bowdoins, Faneuils, Johonnots, Olivers, Sigourneys, Brimmers, Boutineaus, and Mascarenes have all filled an important place in our history. Pierre Baudouin came from Rochelle, in France, to Casco Bay in 1687. He had sons James and John, - the name becoming Bowdoin in this generation, - and daughters married to Robins and to Stephen Bou- tineau. His son John went to Virginia, where his descendants still live; James successively married Sarah Campbell, Hannah Portage, and Mehitable Lillie. His daughters married Balthazar Bayard, James Pitts, and Thomas Flucker ; his oldest son, by wife Phebe Murdock, had a daughter who married James Bowdown her cousin. James, the youngest son of James, married Elizabeth Erving, and was Governor of this State. His only son left no issue ; his daughter married Sir John Temple, baronet, and had a daughter who married Lieut .- Governor Thomas L. Winthrop. James

Temple, son of Sir John, took the name of Bowdoin, as did his son; but this line is extinct. Bowdoin College, however, will remain as a testimony to the public spirit of this famous family.


82. The Faneuils - three brothers named Andrew, Benjamin, and John - were settled here as early as 1691. John returned to France; Andrew acquired a large fortune, and died in 1737-38, leaving it to his nephew Peter. This was the son of Benjamin, and he had a brother Benjamin, with sisters married to Gillam Phillips, Addington Davenport, James Boutineau, and John Jones. Peter lived in great splendor for five years, dying in 1742-43 ; and his gift of Faneuil Hall for a market-house and town hall has made his name a perpetual remembrance.1. Benjamin, Jr., brother of Peter, inherited the estate, and died in 1785. By his wife Mary Cutler he had sons Benja- min and Peter, and a daughter Mary, wife of George Bethune. This last Benjamin married Jane, daughter of Addington Davenport, was a royalist, a consignee of the tea, a refugee, and died in England. Peter went to Mon-, treal and the West Indies, and returned to Boston after his father's death.


83. Daniel Johonnot, one of the Huguenot church, died in 1748, leav- ing sons Zachary, Andrew, and Francis, and a daughter Marianne Boyer. Of these, Andrew married a daughter of Antoine Olivier; Daniel married Sarah Hood and Mary, widow of Thomas Edwards; Andrew married Mary Nichols; Susanna married Lazarus Le Barron; Margaret married Dimond Morton, and William married Sarah Bayley. Daniel Johonnot, son of Andrew, had sons Daniel, Andrew, Oliver, and William, and removed to Middletown, Conn., where he died. Oliver married his cousin Mary Ed- wards, served gallantly in the navy during the Revolution, and was one of the founders of the Massachusetts Charitable Mechanics Association. He died in 1847 aged 87, leaving children, - Andrew, Oliver, and Mary; and the name still continues.


84. Antoine Olivier, the Huguenot, had by wife Mary fifteen children born between 1712 and 1731, the last seven at Annapolis Royal in Nova Scotia. Susanna married Andrew Johonnot. Daniel had a wife Bethiah, and was known by the name of Oliver. It has been found impossible to trace out this line satisfactorily, since the English name of Oliver is often found on our records; but the family was represented here in 1850 by George Stuart Johonnot Oliver.


85. Andrew Sigourney died here in 1727, aged 89; his wife was prob- ably Marie, sister of Antoine Olivier. He had a son Andrew, who married Mary Germaine, and had daughters Susanna, wife of Martin Brimmer, Mary, married John Baker, and Hannah, married Samuel Dexter; also sons Andrew, Anthony, and Daniel. Andrew, 3d, married Mary Ronchon and had twelve children ; Daniel, his brother, married Mary Varney and Joanna Tileston, and had ten children; Anthony married Mary Waters and Eliza- beth Whittemore, and had five children. The name has been widely spread in this community, and we especially note Andrew Barker Sigourney, town

treasurer from 1814 to 1820. Samuel Dexter, who. married Hannah Sigour- ney, was son of the Rev. Samuel Dexter, and a strong patriot. His son Samuel, who married Katherine Gordon (his sister married Judge Artemas Ward), was an eminent lawyer here, a Senator, and Secretary successively of War, the Treasury, and of State, under John Adams. He died in 1816.


86. Martin Brimmer, born at Asten, Germany, 1697, married here Susanna Sigourney, and had, with daughters married to Edward Sohier, Richard Green, and Henderson Inches, a son Martin, who married Sarah Watson. Their children were Susan, wife 'of Henderson Inches, Jr., and Martin, who married Harriet E. Wadsworth. This Martin was mayor of Boston in 1843 and 1844, and died April 25, 1847. Edward Sohier, born in the island of Jersey, married Susanna Brimmer, and left an only son Edward, who married Mary Davies. Their only son, William D., married Eliza Amory Dexter, and had sons Edward and William, now living here. Henderson Inches, born in Scotland, married Elizabeth Brimmer, and had Henderson, who married his cousin Susan Brimmer, and had Henderson, Charles, and Martin B. of the present generation.


87. Jean Paul Mascarene was the son of a Huguenot gentleman of good position, near Castras in France. The father was one of those denounced after the revocation of the Edict of Nantes, but escaped to Geneva, where the son joined him; thence they went to England, where Jean Paul was naturalized in 1706, and joined the army. He married Elizabeth Perry and made Boston his home, though for years on service in Nova Scotia. He had an only son John, and daughters married to Thomas Perkins, James Perkins, and Foster Hutchinson. The son John was comptroller of customs, married Margaret Holyoke, and died in 1778, leaving an only son who was deficient in intellect, and who lived and died unmarried in Dorchester. James Perkins had a son Thomas, who married Anna Powell and had a son Powell Perkins, and a daughter who married William Hubbard, father of the late Samuel Hubbard, Judge of the Supreme Judicial Court.


88. George Bethune, who came here about A.D. 1724, was son of Wil- liam and grandson of Robert Bethune, of Balfour. By the death of the senior representatives the heir of this line now is the head of the family. George Bethune married Miss Carey, and had George, who married Mary Faneuil. The issue was Nathaniel, Henry, and George, the latter of whom married Mary Amory, and had sons Dr. George Amory and John MacLean Bethune, of this city.


89. Another, but more prolific, race of Scotchmen sprang from An- drew Cunningham, who came here about 1680, and had Andron Conningham sons Andrew, William, and David. Of these, William married Elizabeth Wheeler, and had James, William, Benjamin, and John, besides daughters. This last James married Elizabeth Boylston, and had William, James, Peter, Benjamin, and Andrew. Andrew, last named, mar-

* ried Mary Lewis, and had sons Joseph L., Andrew, John A., Charles, James, and Francis; of whom Andrew married Abby West, and had sons Andrew, Charles, William A., Edmund B., James H., Horace, and David W. Other lines have also been continued, and it will be seen that this family has con- tributed largely towards building up the town.


THOMAS BOYLSTON.1


90. Thomas Boylston, of Brookline, who died in 1653, had a son, Dr. Thomas Boylston, who married Mary Gardner and had Edward, of Boston; Richard, of Charlestown, who left issue; Abigail, wife of Ebenezer Brooks;

BOSTON FAMILIES OF THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY.


Peter, of Boston, whose children were Benjamin and daughters married to Ebenezer Adams, John Adams, Nathan Simpson, James Cunningham, Jo- seph Veazie, and John Potter; Dr. Zabdiel-Dudley, who left issue in Brook- line; Thomas, and several daughters. Dr. Zab- diel Boylston married Jerusha Minot, and had Z.Boglion Zabdiel, John, of London, and Thomas, with daughters married to Benjamin Fitch and Dr. Gillam Taylor. Thomas, son of Peter, married Sarah Morecock, and had Nicholas, who died in 1771, and who endowed a professorship at Harvard ; Thomas, of London, and daughters married to Edward Robinson, Ben- jamin Hallowell, Timothy Rogers, and Lieut .- Governor Moses Gill. Mrs. Hallowell had fourteen children, one of whom took the name of Ward Nicholas Boylston, and was a wealthy merchant in London. His son, John L., married Sarah Brooks, and had two sons, one being Dr. Ward Nicholas Boylston, H. C. 1835, of Princeton, Mass. Boylston market was named for the first Ward Nicholas Boylston, who gave the clock.


91. John Trail and his brother George were resident here about 1750, ' and came from Rowsay in the Orkneys. Others of the name, perhaps rela- tives, were here at the same date, and probably left descendants. The whole subject of the Scotch colony in Boston, as distinct and foreign as the Hu- guenot element, presents an interesting problem to the genealogist. The Scots' Charitable Society, founded in 1657, still flourishes here, and now, of course, is reinforced by immigrants of late date. But the chain is unbroken from the beginning, though from 1775 for some twelve years the Society suspended its labors. The records of the old Scotch church here, as I am informed by one who has been allowed to examine them, are full of the necessary data for the history of the families worshipping there. The his- tory printed in 1878 gives a list of members from 1657, and contains the names of many of the most sturdy and patriotic citizens of the last century.


92. The Mountforts spring from three brothers, - Edmund, Henry, and Benjamin, - all merchants here about 1.660. Edmund married Elizabeth Farnham, and had sons Edmund and John; the latter is buried at Copp's Hill in a tomb bearing the ancestral arms. He had sons Benjamin, Joseph, and others, of whom Joseph married Rhoda Lambert, and had a large family. Joseph, Jr., son of the last named, married Sarah Giles, and was the father of N. B. and George Mountfort of this city.


93. Nathaniel Greenwood, who died here in 1684, had sons Samuel and Isaac, of whom Samuel married Elizabeth Bronston, and had Samuel, Isaac, Miles, Nathaniel, and Joseph. Of these, Isaac was professor of mathe- matics at Harvard, married Sarah, daughter of Hon. John Clark, and had sons Isaac, John, and Thales. Isaac, Jr., was grandfather of the Rev. Francis W. P. Greenwood, pastor at the King's Chapel. Several other branches of the family resided here, and the name occurs repeatedly on our records.


94. Captain John Charnock, of Boston, in 1710 married, secondly, Han-

nah Holyoke, and left sons John and William; also daughters Elizabeth, wife of Thomas Lee, and Mary, married to Samuel Greenwood. The son John married Emma, daughter of the Rev. Thomas Blowers, and had three chil- dren, who died unmarried. Mrs. Greenwood had a son John, who died in England in 1792.


95. Michael Martyn, son of Richard M., of Piscataqua, died here in 1700. His sisters married Richard Cutt, Edward Kennard, and Richard Jose. His cousin was Edward M., of Boston, whose will of 1717 mentions sons Edward, Richard, John, and Nathaniel, and five daughters. This family, though the genealogy is not traced, has been continued here, and the name will be often encountered.


96. Thomas Cooper, of Boston, in 1678 was an apprentice to Richard Gawthorn, of London, sent here to learn business of James Lloyd. He married Mehitable Minot, a niece of Lieut .- Governor Stoughton, and had sons William and Thomas. His son Rev. William married Judith Sewall, and had Rev. Samuel, who married Judith Bulfinch, and William, the famous town clerk of Boston, an ardent patriot. This latter had sons Samuel, Richard, and John, of whom Samuel was judge C. C. P. 1800-9, married Margaret Phillips, and left issue ; John went to Maine, was sheriff of Wash- ington County, married Elizabeth Savage, and had a large family. Of another family of the name was Captain Samuel Cooper, born here in 1755, a soldier in the Revolution, who removed to New York, and died about 1839. He was the father of General Samuel Cooper, adjutant-general U. S. A., who resigned to join the South in the late Rebellion, and died in 1876.


97. Simon Lynde, of Boston, 1650, married Hannah, daughter of John Newdigate. He was the son of Enoch Lynde and Elizabeth Digby, and this family impaled the Digby arms. Of his sons, Samuel married Mary Ballard, and had an only daughter Mary, wife of John Valentine; Ben- jamin married Mary Browne, and had a daughter, married to Andrew Oliver, and the Rev. William Walter, and a son Benjamin. Both of these Ben- jamins were chief-justices of the province; the father from 1728 to 1746, and the son, who succeeded his father in 1746, from March 21, 1771, to Jan. 15, 1772.1 The latter presided at the trial of Captain Preston in 1770 for the State-Street riot. There was a contemporary family of the name at Charlestown, descended from Deacon Thomas Lynde, whose son Joseph was on the provincial side in 1689, and was named as councillor in the second charter.


98. Dr. Sylvester Gardiner was the son of William G., whose grand- father was one of the first settlers of Silv- Gardiner Narragansett. Sylvester was born in 1717 at South Kingston, was edu- cated abroad, and settled in Boston to practise as a physician. He was also a merchant, and bought largely of lands in Maine. He was a refugee, 1 [By favor of Dr. F. E. Oliver, heliotypes of the two chief-justices are given herewith .- ED.]

but returned after the war. He had three wives, and left issue, - John, Anna, wife of Hon. Arthur Browne, Hannah, wife of Robert Hallowell, Rebecca, wife of Philip Dumaresq, and Abigail, wife of Oliver Whipple. His son John studied law in London, and was a friend of Wilkes. He re- turned to Boston in 1783, and practised here. His son, Rev. John-Sylves- ter-John Gardiner, rector of Trinity Church, had a daughter married to John P. Cushing, and a son, William H. Gardiner, a distinguished lawyer. Robert Hallowell, a grandson of Sylvester Gardiner, took the name of Gardiner, and inherited the estates at Gardiner, Me.


99. Thomas Amory, born in Limerick, went. with his father to South Carolina, and about 1721 settled in Boston. He had sons Thomas, Jona- than, and John. Thomas married Elizabeth Coffin, and had Rebecca, wife of Dr. Aaron Dexter, Thomas C., who married Hannah Rowe Linzee (parents of Colonel Thomas C., William, and Charles), Elizabeth, wife of Stephen Deblois, Jonathan (father of Thomas C., Jr., alderman, etc.), John, of Dorchester, Mary, wife of Jonathan Davis, William, and Nath- aniel. John Amory, youngest son of the first Thomas, married Catherine, daughter of Rufus Greene, and had John, Rufus G., Thomas, Jonathan, William, Francis, Catherine, wife of John Codman, Rebecca, wife of John Lowell, Mary, wife of George Bethune, and Ann, wife of John McLean.


100. Cornelius Waldo, son of Daniel and grandson of Cornelius of Chelmsford, was of Boston in 1697, where he married Faith (Peek), widow of Jeremiah Jackson. His son Cornelius married Faith Savage, and had issue, - Cornelius, Elizabeth, wife of Benjamin Austin, Thomas (born 1718), and Lydia, wife of Timothy Austin. Jona- . than Waldo, son of Daniel, also came to Boston with his brother Cornelius, married Hannah Mason, and had Samuel, Jonathan, Hannah, wife of Thomas Fayerweather, Mary, wife of Jeremiah Allen, and Anne, wife of Edward Tyng. Of these, Samuel was a brigadier-general, and a great owner of lands in Maine; he died in 1759. He married Lucy Wainwright, and had Samuel, who married Sarah Erving. Jonathan, Jr., brother of General Samuel Waldo, married Susanna Blague, and had issue.


We have thus run over the list of noted Boston families, touching on a few names which most strongly attracted our attention. It is useless to say that the result is unsatisfactory, for every one will recall names equally en- titled to mention which do not appear in the list. As an excuse for all short-comings, the unfortunate writer of this chapter would urge the impossibility of making bricks not only without straw, but with only traces of clay. Without metaphor, he would urge again that the materials do not exist from which to construct a synopsis of the genealogies of families connected with Boston. The history of a single family for seven or

eight generations often takes a volume of three or four hundred pages. The classified record of a single town, confined strictly to persons who have lived therein, may require a volume of equal size. Boston, for so many years by far the largest town in the Province and State, would require several volumes to give proper scope to a careful summary of the avail- able records. As yet no step has been taken towards the compilation of such genealogies, and but very few independent researches have been undertaken.


Savage's admirable Dictionary of the First Settlers was planned on so large a scale that he could give but little attention to the details of any por- tion. Besides, he stops with the third generation, and that is too often at a date so remote as to be of little service to the present generation. The old names crop out now-a-days, either here or in those Western communities more thoroughly New-Englandish than our home is; but the intermediate links are missing. The few family histories, the funeral sermons and memoirs, the fragmentary notices and biographies relating to Bostonians, which have appeared in print, only serve to show how great a proportion of the whole remains unpublished. The three books published by the late Thomas Bridg- man, on the three grave-yards of Old Boston, contain a few valuable notes. The various biographical dictionaries give information concerning a few selected individuals. The volumes of the New England Historical and Genealogical Register and of the Heraldic Fournal contain many interesting sketches of Boston families, but they are only such as have been compiled by persons especially interested in the names recorded.1


We still lack any comprehensive lists even of the citizens of the town at successive periods, until we reach the date of our first Directory in 1789; except, indeed, those invaluable tax-lists of the seventeenth century, printed in the First Report of the Record Commissioners. We are forced, therefore, to say that until sufficient progress has been made in completing the town records, the vital statistics from the church records and other sources, and until the detailed history of the acts of the town in its corporate capacity have been printed from the volumes in the custody of the city clerk, it is premature to undertake to point out the leading families of the Provincial Period. We can grasp the events of the Colonial Period, since we have an abundance of evidence which was lacking in the following century.


One list of names may be inserted here as showing a class of persons who were interested in an enterprise akin to the present work. These were the subscribers to Prince's Chronological History of New England in 1736. It is presumed that all of the following-named persons were Bostonians:


Governor Jonathan Belcher, Lieut .- Governor Spencer Phips, ex-Lieut .- Governor William Dummer, Moses Abbot, Abijah Adams, Jedediah Adams, M.A., Rev. John Adams, Matthew Adams, Samuel Adams, Esq., Rev. Benjamin Allen, Bozune Allen, Captain Jonathan Armitage, John Avery, M.A., Benjamin Babbidge, John
