There seem to be several HUMPHREY families of this name in the United States, all of them of ancient and respectable lineage. Those of English origin were implanted in this country very early. The family herein treated is among those which came to the United States early in the eighteenth century in the immi- gration from northern Ireland. This name was carried from Scotland to that region about the beginning of the seventeenth century, and carried with it the characteristics and mental qualities of the Scotch nation. Among the first settlers of Londonderry, New Hampshire, who located in 1719, was William Humphrey, who settled in the southern part of that town, on what is still known as Humphrey's Hill. There he engaged in farming and became an influential citizen, and his descendants are still living in that locality.


(I) James (1) Humphrey, a nephew of William Humphrey above mentioned, was born about 1713 in northern Ireland and died in 1794 in Londonderry, at the age of eighty- one years. He crossed to America in 1745, landing at Philadelphia, but soon joined his relatives in Londonderry. Within a few years of his arrival he rented land, which he tilled, and about 1756 removed to Derryfield (now Manchester ), New Hampshire, where he pur- chased a farm and remained about seven years. This land is some three-quarters of a mile east of the present city hall at Manchester. He sold it to his brother-in-law, Hugh Thomp- son, and returned to Londonderry. Before purchasing again he visited Cherry Valley, New York, and desired to locate there, but his wife being unwilling to remove so far from her relatives and friends in New Hampshire, he decided to remain, and purchased a hundred acres of land in Londonderry in a district known as "Colray." Here he built a farm- house twenty by twenty-five feet in ground dimensions, which was divided into three rooms, and in this he lived all his life. He cleared his land and was undoubtedly a happy and contented citizen. While residing in


Derryfield he served through two campaigns in the French war under Captain John Stark. He was married about 1751 to Hannah Thompson, born in 1713, who died in 1801; her death was caused by falling in a well while in a state of mental aberration. Children : James, John and Hannah.


(II) James (2), eldest child of James (1) and Hannah ( Thompson) Humphrey, was born in November, 1752, in Londonderry, and continued on the paternal homestead through life. lle added to the house, making it more commodious, just before his marriage, and continued to till the paternal acres. He died June 26, 1828, in his seventy-sixth year. He was married February 5, 1778, to Jean Fisher, born about 1753, died January 3, 1846. Chil- dren : Nancy Hannah, Mary Fisher, John, Janette, Jonathan, Sarah and Jane.


(III) Jonathan, the only son of James (2) and Jean ( Fisher ) Humphrey, was born July 9, 1790, on the homestead of his grandfather in Londonderry, and there resided until he was about thirty-nine years old. In 1813 he received title to the homestead in consideration of the maintenance of his parents during the remainder of their lives. In 1829 he sold this property and resided in the south part of Londonderry, where he purchased a farm, until 1855. He was a severe sufferer from asthma, and in order to secure a change of climate he sold, and in September. 1855, removed to Marion, Iowa, with his son, John C. Hum- phrey, and together they purchased a tract of land there. Some years later he removed to Keokuk, where he died January 2, 1867. He was a prominent citizen of Londonderry, and for twenty years was a ruling elder of the Presbyterian church there, and at one time a member of the general assembly of that body. He was married June 5. 1821, to Amelia, daughter of Ebenezer Fisher, of Londonderry ; children : Samuel Fisher. Daniel Fitts, Mary Elizabeth, Hannah Low, James Ebenezer, Lucy Anna. John Calvin. Sarah Jane, George Ellis and Frank Augustus. One younger than these died in infancy, unnamed.


(I\') Samuel Fisher, eldest child of Jona- than and Amelia (Fisher) Humphrey, was born March 8, 1822, in that part of London- derry which is now Derry, New Hampshire, and died March 12, 1903, in Bangor, Maine. His preparation for college was made at Pinkerton Academy and in Derry, and he graduated from Bowdoin College in the class of 1848. He then became principal of Fox- croft Academy, at Foxcroft, Maine, and this probably led to his settlement in that state.

Hle filled this position twoor three years and then removed to Bangor, where he entered the law office of Albert W. Paine. Having pre- pared himself, he was duly admitted to the bar in 1853, and continued in the practice of liis profession in Bangor until his death, having been many years a partner of F. II. Appleton of that city. Mr. Humphrey took an active part and interest in his home state and began his political career as a representative of his ward in the city government. He was judge of the police court of that city during 1800-68, and represented the town legislature in 1870- 72. Beginning with the last year, he was na- tional bank-examiner for a period of morc than ten years, resigning office, and in 1884-85 was mayor of Bangor. He married Cellissa, daughter of Stephen P. Brown, of Dover, Maine ; children : Fanny S. and Orman Brown. (V) Orman Brown, only son of Samuel Fisher and Cellissa (Brown) Humphrey, was born May 28, 1867, in Bangor, and was edu- cated in the schools of his native town. For three years lie was a student at Bowdoin Col- lege, taking a course in engineering and sub- sequently pursued a post-graduate course in Johns Hopkins University, of Baltimore, Mary- land. Following this he entered the medical department of Dartmouth College and received the degree of Doctor of Medicine in 1893. For a short time he engaged in practice and was soon employed as consulting engineer by an electric railway at Portsmouth, New Hamp- shire, then engaged in the construction of a new line. Previous to this he was employed by the Belknap Motor Company, and in 1902 returned to Bangor, where he is now estab- lished in business as a consulting and design- ing engineer. He is a member of the Amer- ican Society of Mechanical Engineers and the American Institute of Electrical Engineers. While in college he became affiliated with the Psi U college fraternity. He is a Republican in politics. He married (first), October 12, 1892, Wilhemina Tobin, of Chicago, Illinois ; she died May 31, 1894. Married ( second), December 5, 1901, Maud, daughter of Henry and Abbie Hilton, of Biddeford, Maine; chil- dren : Orman Julian and Hilton.


John Humphrey, the HUMPHREY immigrant ancestor, was a member of the Massachu- setts Bay Colony. Winslow says, in his his- tory: "July 1634 Mr. Humphrey and the lady Susan, his wife, one of the Earl of Lincoln's sisters arrived at Boston, bringing military supplies, 16 heifers given by Mr. Richard An-


drews to the plantation, one for each of the ministers and the rest to the poor etc., and messages from people of quality who desired to come over." He had a grant of land at Saugus, March 6, 1632-33. He was a dis- tinguished magistrate. He brought with him two thousand pounds, but died poor in 1663. -He was called a very useful ruler by Governor Winthrop. He was admitted a freeman May 25, 1636; had a sad experience in regard to some of his children in 1641 ; was appointed by the general court June 2, 1641, sergeant-major- general. Administration was granted to his son Joseph December 13, 1661. The court gave him a grant of three hundred acres, which he sold June 26, 1665. In 1662 there was litigation over his estate in the Essex court. Some of the Humphrey grants, as stated in the Marblehead History, were in what is now Marblehead. The general court voted May 6, 1635, to improve the land between Clifte and Forest River and dispose of it to the inhabit- ants of Marblehead, as they stood in need of it, the only charge to the purchaser being enough to recompense him (Mr. Humphrey ) for the labor and costs bestowed upon it. In March, 1636, the general court agreed that "Mr. Humphrey's land should begin at Clifte in the way to Marblehead which is the bound- ary between Salem and Lynn, and so along the line between the said towns to the rocks. one mile by estimation, to a great red oak from which the said marked tree all under and over this rock upon a straight line to the run- ning brooke by Thomas Smyth's house all the which said ground we allow him ( Humphrey ) for his owne and soe from Thomas Smyth's to the sea." The site of the village of Marble- head was selected near his farm. He was granted land beyond Forest River. In 1636 the general court appropriated four hundred pounds for the erection of a college; Hum- phrey was on the committee and the site was selected at Marblehead; later the college site was fixed at its present location at Cambridge.
