(The Treat Line).
The origin of the name Treat is not known, but it is probably a place name, and in its pres- ent form dates back as early as 1572. The family is numerous in county Somerset, Eng- land, and was found also in other parts of England. The spelling has varied, some of its forms being Trat, Trate, Tret, Treet, Treete, Trot, Troot, Treat, and others. The name is rare in England to-day.

Treat was among the early settlers of Milford, Connecticut, coming from Wethersfield, and at the first meeting of the planters, November 20, 1639, he was one of nine appointed to sur- vey and lay out lands. He subsequently re- turned to Wethersfield and was elected rate- maker there in 1647. Returning soon after- ward to Milford, he joined the church there with his wife, April 19, 1648. In 1653 he was chosen deputy to the general court, and next year was elected lieutenant of the Milford militia company. He became a large landholder and a strong and influential factor in the de- velopment of the colony, and was often chosen to purchase and divide public lands. He was early a prominent member of the church, and in 1660 was one of the laymen to perform the ceremony of laying on of hands at the installa- tion of Rev. Roger Newton. He held the post of deputy until 1659, with the exception of one year, and then being elected magistrate he served for five years on the governor's coun- cil, and was re-elected but declined further service. In 1663 he was again chosen magis- trate for Milford, and was also captain of the military forces. In May, 1664, he and Will- iam Jones were appointed to meet a committee from Massachusetts to consider various mat- ters of common interest. He was again elected magistrate but declined. He was active in the consummation of the union of the New Haven and Connecticut colonies under one govern- ment. In 1665 he was a deputy to the general court, and next year was nominated for the office of assistant and defeated. He was a delegate to go to New Jersey in the interests of those dissatisfied with conditions in Con- necticut and desiring to settle there, which movement resulted in the establishment of the town of Newark. Treat and ten others were appointed to have charge of the government, and he was the foremost citizen. From 1667 to 1672 he was deputy to the New Jersey gen- eral assembly. In 1672 he returned to his old home in Connecticut, though a son and daugh- ter (Mary Treat, wife of Azariah Crane) remained. Upon his return he was placed second in command of the forces in prepara- tion to fight the Dutch in New York, and at the next election was chosen assistant and con- tintied for three years, serving also on the com- mittee of safety, which acted when the general court was not in session. He had many im- portant public duties on committees of the gen- eral court and held many private trusts. When King Philip's war broke out he was commis- sioned major in command of the Connecticut
quota. He saved Springfield from destruction, and took an active part in the campaign in western Massachusetts and the Connecticut Valley. He defeated the Indians at Hadley in October. He took a leading part in the famous Swamp Fight, when the Narragansetts were defeated. Four of his five captains were slain, but he escaped with a bullet hole in his hat. After the death of Philip, Major Treat returned home and was elected deputy gov- ernor, continuing in this office seven years. He also served as judge or committeeman, especially in Indian affairs, now at the request of Northampton to mediate with the Indians for the return of captives and a treaty of peace, now on the committee of safety, twice as com- missioner for the United Colonies, and twice also as substitute for other commissioners. In 1683 he was elected governor to succeed gov- ernor Peete, who died in April. He had to deal with many exceedingly trying problems of state in his administration. There was friction with other colonies and encroachments on all sides. Then came the crushing blow inflicted by King James in revoking the colonial charter and the assumption of power by the infamous Andros. He presided over the coun- cil when the charter was taken away and hid- den in the tree, afterwards known as the "Charter Oak." When James fell and An- dros was overthrown, Governor Treat and the colonial officers resumed their stations. After the custom of the times, he served as deputy governor after he was governor, and he was in this important post from the age of seventy- six to eighty-six, then declined and retired. "Few men," says Trumbull, "have sustained a fairer character or rendered the public more important services. He was an excellent mili- tary officer, a man of singular courage and resolution, tempered with caution and pru- dence. His administration of government was with wisdom, firmness and integrity. He was esteemed courageous, wise and pious. He was exceedingly loved and venerated by the people in general."

PEARSON Much of the early ancestry of Scandinavia is extremely hard to trace owing to the com- posite nature of names. This has followed down from the Vikings, who bestowed upon their sons their first name, having the affix ap son, Persson being the son of Per, and Eriks- son the son of Erik, and thus it is with the families of to-day whose names have been formed from the christian names of their fore- fathers.
(I) Per Eriksson (Per, son of Erik) and grandfather of Alex Edward Pearson, was a large landed estate owner and lived at Rebbel- berga, in the province of Skåne, Sweden. He became a man of much wealth and maintained a retinue of servants. He lived as an honored host in the richest part of the domain. He was an expert judge of cattle and horses, and dealt largely in them, and had the patronage of the crown. His children were: I. Per, who was a very religious man. 2. Erik. 3. Henrik, referred to below.
(II) Henrik Persson, son of Per Eriks- son, was born at Rebbelberga, in the province of Skåne, Sweden, January 28, 1828, died at Norra Varalöf, in the same province, on his homestead, January 8, 1888. His elementary

educational training was limited to three months in a nearby district school. He gained much in life from the school of experience and self-education, which better fitted him for the problems of life that were to follow. He was apprenticed during his minority to the trade of carpenter, which was a severe term of service, but which was built well in a sure foundation. His attention to every detail of the trade qualified him to take charge of more responsible and remunerative positions. He later became chief carpenter and joiner to Baron von Barnekov, on Spannarp's estate, be- longing to the crown, and he remained in this very responsible position for ten years. Shortly afterwards he married, and with his savings engaged in farining in the town of Skörpinge, leasing a twelve acre farm. He was success- ful in the raising of rye, oats and flax, the latter product being carded and spun for the household use. He was also successful in raising horses, cattle and sheep, the wool from his sheep being used for garments for the household. He supplied horses for the crown. In 1882 he purchased a twenty-five acre farm, where he settled, and where he resided until his death. He was a man of staid and unrelenting principles but of a broad-minded type. While austere in nature, he possessed a kindly heart and had many friends. He believed in the im- proved ideas of agriculture and kept abreast of the times, his farm comparing with the best in the province. He was loyal to the crown and to his family, and was a true citizen, much respected by all who knew him. He was a member of the Lutheran church in the parish, in which all his children were reared. Anna Olsdotter, the wife of Henrik Persson, was the mother of nine children, five of whom lived. She was a woman of many lovable traits, en- dowed with many excellent characteristics of mind and heart. She was a most devoted wife and mother. Anna Olsdotter, daughter of Ols Olofson, was born December 21, 1835, and died in November, 1898. Children : I. Hilda, born October 4, 1862, married, January, 1888, Peter Swanson. 2.

(III) Alex Edward Pearson,* son of Hen- rik Persson and Anna (Olsdotter) Persson, was born in the town of Skörpinge (near Engelholm), in the southern province of Skåne, Sweden, January 8, 1867. It was here in the land of the "midnight sun" that Alex E. at- tended school from the age of five to fifteen years, when he was confirmed in the Lutheran church as is the custom. Most of his school- ing was under the tuition of Master Olson, a very exact and painstaking teacher of that time. He was reared under strict christian influences. Up to the age of twenty he worked on his father's farm, and also learned the trade of cabinet making. Impelled by a strong de- sire to better his condition and allured by the attractive reports of the possibilities in Amer- ica from many of his countrymen, he decided to emigrate from his native soil to the land of promise. He left Helsingborg, a southern port of Sweden, in May, 1887, going to Copen- hagen, thence to Kristiansand, Norway, where he set sail to Leith, Scotland, thence to Glas- gow, and shortly afterward came to New York. Arriving here he at once proceeded to Wilkes- Barre, Pennsylvania, where he engaged in the carpenter's trade until Christmas, when he re- turned to New York City and there followed his trade until 1890, subsequently going to Staten Island, remaining until 1893, when he came to East Orange, New Jersey, during the summer, and entered the employ of Nathaniel Bonnell, as foreman carpenter. In 1894 he moved to Orange, and for a period of four years was foreman for Fairchild & Company, carpenters and builders. From 1898 to 1899 he was engaged in a similar capacity for James S. Anderson and subsequently for a year with Preiss & Company. Realizing the success of his efforts for others, he decided to enter into business on his own account. May 22, 1900, he started in the building business on a small scale, with quarters on Center street, and in June, 1907, removed to West Orange, having purchased the A. F. Spangler residence, one of the most attractive sites in West Orange. Mr. Pearson has here a well-appointed office in connection with his general contracting busi- ness. He has erected a number of residences and stores in and about Orange. In 1898, during the Spanish-American war, he became a naturalized citizen and wanted to enlist for the

war, but was dissuaded from this purpose by friends.
In 1902 Mr. Pearson was elected secretary of the Master Carpenters' Association of the Oranges, a position he has filled ever since with much credit to the association and him- self. In February, 1903, he was elected secre- tary of the Master Builders' Association of the Oranges, this organization comprising the mas- ter carpenters, masons, plumbers and painters associations. In July 1903 he was elected secretary of the New Jersey State Association of Master Builders. In January, 1907, he was delegated from the New Jersey State Associa- tion to the National Convention of Builders, held in Scranton, Pennsylvania, and while serv- ing as a delegate was elected secretary of the National Assciation of Builders Exchanges. In 1908, at the Washington, D. C. convention he was re-elected, and in 1909 at the New York convention was again re-elected. The religious element that has marked the character of Mr. Pearson is positive and of a high type. Reared under the old Lutheran forms, he still pre- serves the same ideas of worship with the more liberal views of Methodism. He became a member of the old "First" Methodist Epis- copal Church in Orange in 1895 ; was a teacher in the Sunday school, having one class of boys for seven years ; served as treasurer, secretary and president of the Epworth League, besides being a member of the choir. After moving to West Orange his membership was trans- ferred to the West Orange Methodist Epis- copal Church, where he is ( 1910) a steward of the church, secretary of the official board, and president of the Choral Club. In politics Mr. Pearson is affiliated with the Republican party, and in 1909 was nominated to the office of town clerk of West Orange. He is a mem- ber of Orange Council, No. 975, Royal Ar- canum.
Mr. Pearson married, August 20, 1902, Anita Maria, born January 24, 1871, daughter of William Alfred and Mary Elizabeth ( Thorn- ton) Hedden, of East Orange, New Jersey. Children : I. Edward Thornton, born August 18, 1904. 2. Elsie Elizabeth, born August 16, 1907.
(The Hedden Line).
(VII) William Alfred Hedden, son of Eli- jah Hedden (q. v.), was born December 18, 1839, in the old Bathgate homestead at East Orange, New Jersey, near Hedden place. He received his early schooling in the old Orange school, a short distance from his father's home- stead, and later removed with his parents to
Verona, then the town of Vernon. He attend- ed the district school, and worked on his father's farm. During his minority he worked for John Freeman, a manufacturer of shoes, in Orange, learning this trade and working as a journeyman until the early seventies, when he entered the employ of the Peloubet & Pelton Organ Company, and learned the trade of tuner, remaining with the firm a number of years, until their failure. He then removed to Washington, New Jersey, and became a tuner in the Beatty and Cornish organ factor- ies, remaining there twelve years, when he re- moved to the home of his nativity (East Orange). He continued at his trade, going to Washington until he was obliged to retire from active engagements owing to ill health. He died of consumption at his home, March 26, 1896. He was a member of Christ Church at East Orange (Episcopal), and was a Democrat in politics. He possessed a quiet nature and made many lifelong friends. He led a useful, upright life, and was fond of his home and fireside. He was a singer of considerable note, being possessed of a fine bass voice.
He married, March 28, 1870, Mary Eliza- beth, born December 10, 1847, daughter of Thomas Charles and Sarah Jane (Spencer) Thornton. (Thomas C. Thornton was a har- ness maker in New York City, prominent in politics). Children : 1. Anita Maria, born Jan- uary 24, 1871 ; married, August 20, 1902, Alex Edward Pearson (see Pearson, III). 2. Will- iam Alfred Jr., born February 16, 1873, died November 28, 1894. 3. Charles Thornton, born June 8, 1877, died May 14, 1901.
William Kane, father of the Amer- KANE ican ancestor of the Kane family of New York and Pennsylvania, was the son of Donald O'Cahan. His grand- father was Charles O'Cahan, and his great- grand father, William O'Cahan. The family is of Irish origin, and the original name of O'Cahan became changed into O'Kane and Kane, when the Irish language was abolished by the English government in the seventeenth century. William Kane married Eleanor, sixth daughter of John and Charity (Dixon) O'Neil. Her parents were Bryan and Eleanor (Mc- Genis) O'Neil, and her grandparents were Phelan Duff and Shiela (O'Hara) O'Neil. Children: 1. John, referred to below. 2.

(II) John O'Kane (or, as he styled himself later, John Kane), was born in county Antrim, Ireland, December 12, 1734, and died at Red Hook, Dutchess county, New York, March 15, 1808. When eighteen years of age he emi- grated to America, arriving in New York City in November, 1752. Establishing himself in mercantile pursuits, he became eventually one of the leading traders and merchants of the New York colony, and founded the famous firm of Kane Brothers, into which all of John Kane's sons subsequently entered. The firm sold all kinds of articles, and their trading posts extended all over the then explored coun- try. John Kane became very wealthy and in- vested heavily in real estate, especially in Dutchess county, New York, where his coun- try seat "Sharyvogne" was located near Paw- lingstown. He was an intimate friend of James de Lancey and other noted Tory leaders in New York, and being regarded as having loyalist tendencies himself. he was, with Lord Dunmore and other disaffected leaders, named in the act of attainder of October 22, 1779, and his property was confiscated to the state. He then sent his family to Halifax, Nova Scotia, and he himself went to England. After the close of the revolution he returned with his family to New York, and the business estab- lished by the father was renewed by his sons. At one time John Kane represented Dutchess county in the provincial assembly. He mar- ried, in 1756, Sybil, daughter of Rev. Elisha and Abigail ( Moss) Kent; (see Kent).
