Such were the original petitioners, all of them originally from New England, and in full sympathy with the prevailing sentiments of that region. Two of them only, Bailey and Watson, became patentees, and of these only one a settler, and he but for ten or eleven years.

Other Patentees .- The other patentees were Capt. John Baker and John Ogden.

Capt. John Baker heads the list. He had heen for some time a resident of New Amsterdam, though an

ORIGINAL PATENTEES AND ASSOCIATES OF ELIZABETH TOWN.

Englishman by birth, and had acquired a familiarity with the Dutch language that made him on several occasions useful as an interpreter in dealing with the Indians. It is probable, as previously intimated, that he was thus employed by Denton and his associates in the Staten Island negotiations for this town, and so became interested in the enterprise. The earliest definite information of him is found in the records (Dutch) of a court held at the city ball, New Orange (New York), Nov. 14, 1673, in an action against Capt. John Baker:

"Jao Smedes and Jan Mynderarn, Carters declare that about nine years ago shortly after the surrender of this place [1664], they rode 300 p's of firewood out of the bush for Claes Dietlofson, and afterwards brought the same firewood to Capt Backer's house within this city, and the bill for carting has not yet been paid them by said Backer as they are prepared to declare or oath. Capt. Backer resided in Broadway in the house now occupied by Willen Van der Scheure [Schuyren ]."

As Capt. Baker belonged, in 1673, to another juris- diction, Claes probably gained nothing by the suit. The house that he occupied in Broadway was on the east side, a short distance below Wall Street. After the conquest of the city Governor Nicolls appointed him, Sept. 25, 1665, chief military officer at Albany. On this account his name is not included among those who took the oath of allegiance here in February following. In August, 1669, he was subjected to a court-martial at Fort James, New York, for an assault on William Paterson, a merchant of Albany, and judgment was rendered against him Oct. 6, 1669. He continued in command at Albany until May 14, 1670, from which time he became permanently a resident of this town. His house-lot was of the ordinary size, bounded S., E., and W. by the high- ways, and N. by Luke Watson. Afterwards it came into the possession of Matthias Hatfield, Esq., the grandson of the planter of that name. He obtained, March 14, 1675, a warrant for the survey of 1200 acres for "himself and his Wife and eight other Persons" of his family. He was appointed coroner March 28, 1683, and judge of small causes. He was a leading man in the community, and ever among the foremost in resisting the proprietary as- sumptions. He died in 1702.1

John Ogden, the other patentee, who became a per- manent resident, was one of the most influential founders of the town. He was at Stamford, Conn., in 1641, within a year after its settlement. He had previously married Jane, who, as tradition reports, was a sister of Robert Bond. In May, 1642, he and his brother Richard, both of them, at the time, of Stam- ford, entered into a contract with Governor William Kieft, Gisbert op Dyck, and Thomas Willett, of New Amsterdam, church-wardens, to build a stone church in the fort, 72 by 50 feet, for the sum of 2500 guilders ($1000), to be paid in beaver, cash, or merchandise,

one hundred guilders to be added if the work proved satisfactory, and the use of the company's boat to be given the builders for carrying stone a month or six weeks if necessary. The work was duly and satisfac- torily completed.2

It was probably in this way that the two brothers became acquainted with the west end of Long Island. Early in 1644, in company with the Rev. Robert Ford- ham, Rev. Richard Denton, and a few others, they re- moved from Stamford and settled at Hempstead, L. I., of which John Ogden was one of the patentees. At the expiration of five or six years, not liking the con- trol of the Dutch, with whom he had considerable dealings at New Amsterdam, and disgusted with the cruelties practiced upon the natives, of whom scores, soon after his settlement at Hempstead, had there, by order of the government, been put to death, he re- moved to the east end of the island to dwell among his own countrymen. In 1647 he had obtained per-

mission of the town of Southampton to plant a col- ony of six families at "North Sea," a tract of land bordering on the Great Peconic Bay, opposite Rob- bin Island, about three miles north of the village of Southampton. Some two or three years elapsed be- fore his removal and the planting of the settlement at the North Sea, called, in the colonial records of Connecticut and New Haven, as well as in Nicolls' grant, " Northampton."

He was made a freeman of Southampton March 31, 1650, and was chosen by the General Court at Hartford, Conn., May 16, 1656, and again in 1657 and 1658, one of the magistrates for the colony. He sat in the General Court as a representative from Southampton in May, 1659, and in the Upper House May, 1661, and afterwards. His name appears re- peatedly in the new charter of Connecticut (obtained April 23, 1662, by Governor Winthrop from Charles II.) as one of the magistrates and patentees of the colony, also quite frequently in the records both of Connecticut and New Haven. He was held in high honor at home, being one of their first men.

During his residence at Northampton, Ogden, by frequent visits as a trader to New Amsterdam, had kept up his acquaintance with his old friends and neighbors on the west end of the island. When, therefore, after the conquest, it was proposed to him to commence a fourth settlement in the new and in- viting region of Achter Kull under English rule, he readily entered into the measure, and, in company with his old friend, Capt. Baker, purchased the inter- ests of the Dentons and Goodman Benedict, and thus became, being a man of substance and distinction, the leading man of the new colony. He was among the very first, with his five full-grown boys, John, Jonathan, David, Joseph, and Benjamin, to remove to the new purchase and erect a dwelling on the

town-plot. He located his house, it is thought, on the Point road, now Elizabeth Avenue, near where Robert Ogden, his great-grandson, and Col. Barber afterwards lived. The bounds of his home-lot are not recorded.

He was appointed, Oct. 26, 1665, a justice of the peace, and, Nov. 1st, one of the Governor's Council. In the Legislature of 1668 he was one of the bur- gesses from this town, To carry forward his im- provements, or to meet previous obligations, he bor- rowed, Oct. 9, 1668, of Cornelius Steenwick (the mayor of the City of New York, a wealthy mer- chant) £191 5s. Od., "one fourth part thereof to be paid in good Wheat at 4/6 pr Bushell one fourth part in good drie Ox hides at 6 stivers pr pound dutch weight One fourth part in good merchantable To- bacco at 4 stivers pr pound like weight and one fourth part in Good Corn fed fat Pork well packt in casks and delivered at New Yorke at Three Pounds ten Shillings pr Barrell." As security he mortgaged, April 29, 1669, " a Certain Water Mill now in my Tenure or Occupation," as the mortgage expresses it, " near unto the Mansion or Dwelling House of Gov. Carterett in Elizabeth Towne."

This mill was located immediately west of the Broad Street stone bridge, and, with the dam across the creek just above, was, doubtless, constructed by Mr. Ogden, whence the creek was frequently called " Mill Creek," or "Mill River." The Governor's house was located east of the bridge and north of the creek, on the ground latterly occupied by the Thomas honse.

Three of his sons, John, Jonathan, and David, took the oath of allegiance February, 1666, and were numbered among the original Associates. The honse- lot of John, Jr., contained four acres, and was twelve by fonr chains in length and breadth, bounded S. E. by John Woodruff and Leonard Headley, N. E. by a highway, N. W. by Mrs. Hopkins, Sr., and S. W. by the creek, a highway between him and Mrs. Hopkins. He had also twelve acres of "upland Lying npon the way that goes to the Governor's point," also sixty acres of "upland Lying in the plaines" between Henry Norris and Leonard Head- ley, also nine acres of "meadow Lying at the east end of ye great Island." Jouathan had a house-lot of six acres fifteen by four chains, bounded S. E. by his younger brother Joseph, and on the other sides by highways. He had twenty-two acres of upland in a triangle, bounded by the Governor and Benjamin Parkis; also eighty-fonr acres of upland " Lying in a plaine," bounded by Benjamin Parkis, Leonard Headley, Isaac Whitehead, Jr., and the Mill Brook, also fourteen acres of meadow in two plots on the creek and on the great island. David's house- lot contained five acres, and was bounded east by the ! Mill Creek, north by Jeffry Jones, and west and south by highways. He had, in addition, sixty acres of upland, bounded by Joseph Frazee, William Letts,

Samuel Marsh, Jr., and Capt. Baker, also eight acres of meadow nn Thompson's Creek.1

The Eighty Associates .- Such, as just narrated, were the original petitioners and patentees. Who were the other founders of the town ? What was their origin, what were their principles, and where did they locate ? In answering these inquiries, those who took the oath of allegiance, including all who were on the ground during the first year of the settlement, will be considered in alphabetical order.

Joakim Andris (Yokam Andross, Andrews) was probably from New Haven, Conn., and a son of Wil- liam Andrews, who came to New Haven previous to 1643 with a family of eight persons. His house-lot contained 4 acres, and was bounded N. and E. by a highway, S. by Matthias Hatfield, and W. hy Dennis White. He had died in 1675, and his widow, Amy, sold, June 22, 1675, to Thomas Moore "the house Orchard Garden Home Lott Pastore for Calves," and all that might be claimed by the concessions, a first lot-right, except 20 acres sold by her husband to Peter Moss, " and one peare tree and some Gonsberry bushes," reserved for her use.2

Francis Barber has left no memorial of his origin. He sold, March 10, 1672, to Vincent Ronyon, carpen- ter, a house-lot (bought of William Pyles, who had bought it of Thomas Moore), 40 rods by 16, bounded N. by George Pack, and fronting on the highway. He was still here in the following year, but must have removed soon after to Staten Island, where, on the W. side of the island, on Smoking Point, Dec. 21, 1680, 88 acres of woodland and meadow were sur- veyed for him, and where, in 1686, he served as com- missioner of excise. The Barber family of a later date had another origin and a more illustrious record.3

Robert Blackwell was one of the early settlers of this town, though his name is not found in any town document now extant. In a deed, on record in New York, Robert Blackwell is spoken of as "late of Eliz- abeth-town in New Jersey, merchant." He married, April 26, 1676, Mary Manningham, step-daughter of Capt. John Manning (by whom the city was surren- dered, in 1673, to the Dutch), and so became the owner of Manning's Island, since known by his own name.+

Robert Bond was the father of Joseph, and a resi- dent of Southampton, L. I., as early as 1643. He was appointed, October, 1644, by the General Conrt of

Connecticut, in company with Mr. More, “ to demand of each family of Southampton the amount they would give for the maintenance of scholars at Can- bridge College." He was one of the company that settled East Hampton in 1648. He came originally from Lynn, Mass., and was doubtless of the same stock with the Watertown family. He had a princi- pal part in securing the land of East Hampton from the natives, and in transacting the business of the town. He was one of the first magistrates of the place, and repeatedly represented the town in the General Court of the colony. John Ogden and Capt. John Scott having had some differences with the town about Meantaquit (Montauk) in 1662, Rob- ert Bond was chosen one of the commissioners to settle it. His intimacy with Ogden (tradition says that each married the other's sister) and others of his neighbors, who were about to remove to these parts, led him to cast in his lot with them, and lend his val- uable counsels to the settlement of this town, where his influence was second only to John Ogden's. Car- teret, at his coming, was glad to avail himself of his mature experience, and appointed him, Jan. 2, 1668, one of his Council, and an assistant to the justices. Governor Winthrop, of Connecticut, highly com- mended him. He was appointed, March 13, 1676, justice of the peace. His first wife was Hannah, a sister of John Ogden. After her death he married at Newark, in 1672, Mary, the widow of Hugh Roberts. She was the daughter of Hugh Calkins, an emigrant from Wales in 1640, and a resident, first of Glouces- ter, Mass., and then of New London, Conn. He thus became interested in the Newark colony, and was elected the same year their representative. He con- tinued still to reside in this town, where he died April, 1677. His wife survived him twenty-four years. Stephen Bond, of Newark, was one of his sons. The father received a warrant for 360 acres of land at E. Town, June 30, 1675, but a caveat was en- tered against it, Jan. 16, 1677, by Benjamin Price, Sr. Joseph, at the same date, received a warrant for 160 acres.1

John Brackett, Sr., was from New Haven, Conn., of which he was one of the first settlers. He assented to the covenant there June 4, 1639, and as late as 1643 was unmarried. At the seating of the congrega- tion in 1646 places were provided for him and "Sister Brackett," showing that previous to this time he had taken to himself a wife. He was frequently employed in laying out lands about the town, and his name is

of frequent occurrence in the colonial records until 1660. When troops were raised to resist the en- croaching Dutch, he was appointed, June 23, 1654, one of the " surgions." He was probably induced to accompany his neighbors to this colony in order to aid them in laying out their lands. Near the close of 1677, several of the planters having urged the Gov- ernor to define the exact bounds of their several pos- sessions, he deputed Brackett, Dec. 19, 1667, in the absence of Vauquellin, the surveyor-general, " to lay out, survey, and bound the said bounds of Elizabeth Towne the planting feilds towne lotts and to lay out every particulars man's proportion according to his allotments and the directions" of the Governor, "for the avoiding of all controversies and disputes hereafter concerning the same, having had certain notice of the good experience, knowledge, skill, and faithfulness of John Brackett in the surveying and laying out of land." In the controversies of a later day it was affirmed by the town's party that they had "not seen, known, or heard of any one Survey made in pur- suance of that commission." The surveys were prob- ably made, but were superseded by later and more accurate surveys, and hence were not preserved. Brackett sold out his rights as early as 1670 to Samuel Hopkins, and returned to New Haven, both he and his sou, who also had been admitted as an As- sociate. John, Jr., died at New Haven, Nov. 29, 1676. " Brackett's Brook," a branch of the E. Town Creek, in the north part of the town, indicates proba- bly the locality of their allotment.2

Nathaniel Bunnell (Bonnel) was undoubtedly also from New Haven, Conn., and of the same family with William and Benjamin, of that town. William was there previous to 1650. Nathaniel had a house-lot of six acres, 15 by 4 chains, bounded E. by Thomas Price, W. and N. by Isaac Whitehead, Sr., and S. by a highway. He had also an allotment of 120 acres, " Lying upon the South Branch of Elizth Town Creek, and ye plaine which said above mentioned Creek passeth through ;" also "12 acres of meadow Lying in the great meadows upon John Woodruffe's Creek." 3

Nicolas Carter came from Newtown, L. I. His name appears, April 12, 1656, among the purchasers of that place from the natives. His allotment there was 20 acres. He came there in 1652, from Stamford, Conn. He is repeatedly spoken of in the Newtown records, among the leading men of the town, until 1665, the date of his removal to this place. His son, Nicholas, born 1658, was apprenticed, March 25, 1669, to " Richard Painter, Taylor," of Elizabeth Town. The indenture says : " Unlawfull Sports and Games he shall not use. Taverns or Tipling houses hee shall not haunt or frequent, his Masters Goods he shall not

In the inventory of his estate, April 18, 1677, his house and all his land were valued at £70; two oxen. £12 108 .; two cows and calves, £9; one "farrow cow," £3 158 .; two twiryear old heifers, £5 ; a cannon, £1 58. The whole amounted to £151 118. 5d.

Imbezle purloin or by any unlawfull means diminish or Impair, his Masters Secrets he shall not disclose." His house-lot contained five acres, 10 by 5 chains, bounded E. and S. by highways, N. by the creek, and S. by William Hill. He had also twenty acres of upland on Luke Watson's Point, adjacent to Ed- ward Case and Jacob Melyen ; also forty acres of up- land "in a swamp lying at the E. side of the blind Ridge," bounded partly by Aaron Thompson and Jacob Melyen. This tract and his house-lot he sold, March 16, 1677, to Benjamin Wade, for £30, payable in pipe-staves. He had also seventy acres of upland, bounded by Roger Lambert, George Pack, and the swamp; also 193 acres of upland on the Mill Creek, bounded by Barnabas Wines, the plain, a small brook, and the creek ; also 22 acres of meadow in the Great Meadow, and 18 acres on Thompson's Creek. His allotments contained 368 acres. He bought also, March 9, 1677, of Jacob Melyen, then of the city of New York, 101 acres of land on the South Neck. The most of his lauds he sold, May 18, 1681, to Samuel Wilson, and shortly after died.1

Caleb Carwithy (Carwithe, Corwith) was the son of David, a resident of Southold, L. I., where he died, November, 1665. Caleb was a mariner, and quite a rover. At Hartford, Conn., he was arraigned, October, 1646, for pursuing an absconding debtor on the Sabbath-day. Previous to 1654 he made trading voyages betweeu New Haven and Boston. In 1661 he resided at Southampton, L. 1. He was admitted in 1664 a freeman at Huntington, L. I. The follow- ing year he came to this place. In the winter of 1669 he entered into an association with John Og- den, Sr., Jacob Melyen, William Johnson, Jeffry Jones, and others of this town for whaling purposes. His house-lot adjoined Charles Tucker on the west, and George Ross on the N. west. He sold thirty acres of land, Feb. 8, 1671, for £11, to William Piles. A year or two after he removed to Southampton, L. I., where he was living in 1683, and where his descend- ants have been quite numerous and respectable.2

William Cramer was a carpenter from Southold, L. I., where he married Elizabeth, the sister of Caleb Carwithy. He attached himself to the Governor's party, and seems not to have been numbered with the Town Associates. He was appointed, April 27, 1670, constable of the town, in place of William Pilles. His house-lot contained 6 acres, of irregular form, bounded on the N. W. by Evan Salisbury, and on every other side by highways. He had also 5 acres of upland adjoining John Little; also 10 acres of upland lying in the swamp, bounded by Barnabas Wines, Richard Beach, and John Little; also 20 acres of upland, bounded by Stephen Crane, Roger

Lambert, and the great swamp; also 60 acres adjoin- ing the last plot and Crane's Brook, bounded also, as before, by Crane and Lambert ; also 80 acres "at the two mile brook," bound by unsurveyed land and the brook ; also 8 acres of upland " in the neck," bounded by Caleb Carwithy, Luke Watson, and the creek meadow; also 6 acres of meadow on the creek, and 14 acres of meadow "at Rahawack,"-in all 209 acres. He sold out, Sept. 1, 1677, to John Toe, weaver, and soon after removed with Luke Watson to the Hoar-Kill (Lewes), Del. He died in 1695.3

Stephen Crane was from Connecticut, and was, probably, nearly related to Jasper Crane, of Newark, who was one of the first settlers of New Haven, Conn., in 1639, was at Branford in 1652, and at New- ark in 1667. The family is quite ancient and honor- able. Ralph Crane accompanied Sir Francis Drake to America in 1577, and Robert Crane was of the first company that came to Massachusetts Bay in 1630. Sir Robert Crane was of Essex County, England, in 1630; and Sir Richard, in 1643, of Wood Rising, Norfolk, England. Henry and Benjamin Crane were of Weth- ersfield, Conn., at an early day, and the former re- moved thence to Guilford. Stephen was born not later than 1640, and was married as early as 1663. His house-lot contained 6 acres, and was bounded S. E. by Samuel Trotter, N. W. by Crane's Brook, E. by the Mill Creek, and W. by the highway. He had also 60 acres between two swamps, and adjoining William Cramer ; also 72 acres ou Crane's Brook, bounded by the brook, William Cramer, Richard Beach, Nathaniel Tuttle, and William Pardon ; also 18 acres of meadow " towards Rawack Point,"-in all 156 acres. He died about 1700.4

John Dickinson was from Southold, L. I., and a son or brother of Philemon, who came over in the " Mary Ann," 1637, to Salem, Mass., was admitted to the church in 1641, married Mary, daughter of Thomas Payne, of Salem, removed to Southold about 1649, was captain of a sloop in those parts, aud resided at Oyster Bay in 1653. John was one of the witnesses, Aug. 18, 1665, to the payment to the Indians of a part of the purchase money for the town lands, and took the oath of allegiance iu February following. He died soon after, and his rights were transferred to John Ogden.5

Joseph Ffrazey (Frazee) came with the first settlers, but whence does not appear. His house-lot contained 6 acres, of the usual form, 15 by 4 chains, and was bounded S. W. by David Ogden, N. E. by William Letts, S. E. by a highway, and N. W. by a swamp. He received, May 9, 1676, a warrant for 120 acres. Feb. 1, 1685, he received a warrant for 50 acres ad- joining his own land, " betwixt Raway River and the
