[No mark of seal, except the two holes near the fold of the parchment at foot, where it may have been attached.]


The cover of the original book is the commission, on parchment, issued to the Judges of the Court of Common Pleas in 1762, shortly after the acces- sion of King George III. to the English throne; and this has caused the preservation of a very interesting document which otherwise would doubtless have been lost. As the persons so honored were among the most prominent citizens of Suffolk County, a few words concerning them may not be inappropriate.


Richard Floyd was son of Richard Floyd 2d. His mother was the daughter of Colonel Matthias Nicoll and sister of William Nicoll the patentee of Islip. He was born December 29, 1703, and in- herited the paternal estate at Setauket, where he lived. His only brother, Nicoll Floyd, was the father of General William Floyd, the signer of the Declaration of Independence. Judge Floyd died April 21, 1771, and left a large family.


Hugh Gelston was a native of Belfast, Ireland, and settled in Southampton, L. I., in the early part of the last century. His residence was on the west side of the main street of that village, and on the south side of "Job's Lane," and is now owned by Albert C. Reeves. In ancient times the whipping post and stocks stood in the street at the corner of his lot, and it was said of any person who was


Suffolk County, 1691-1703. 273


accused or suspected of petty crime, that "he would be brought up to Gelston's fence." This byword was in common use long after the cause of it had passed away. Though the name has long been ex- tinct in Southampton, many of his descendants are to be found in other parts of the State. Hon. David Gelston, formerly collector of the port of New York, and member of Congress, was his grandson. His tombstone in the Southampton burying ground bears the following inscription.


"In Memory of | Hugh Gelston Esq 1 who died | December 13 A. D. 1775, | in the 78th I year of his age."


Samuel Landon was the son of Samuel Landon who came from Hertfordshire, England, and settled in Southold. Judge Landon was born May 20, 1699. After the disastrous battle of Long Island, he, like many other prominent citizens, fled to Guilford, Conn., and he died there January 21, 1782. Judge Landon left several children, among them a son, Jared Landon, who was the only one that lived in Southold. He was born January 29, 1746, and was Surrogate and County Judge about twenty years, Justice of the Peace for thirty years, and for nine years Member of Assembly. He died in Southold February 10, 1816.


Thomas Youngs was the son of Judge Joshua Youngs of Southold. He was born in 1719 and died in 1793. His homestead was a large farm which he inherited from his father, at Sterling, now


274


Early Long Island Wills.


Greenport. The family burying ground, where his remains were laid to rest, is now a part of Sterling Cemetery.


John Chatfield was son of Judge Thomas Chat- field of Easthampton. He lived in his native village to a very advanced age, and was the connecting link between ancient and modern times, for his style of dress and mode of living were of an age long anterior to his own. His sister, Mary Chatfield, married Joseph King of Southold, who died at an early age. She then married Francis Pelletreau of Southampton, and after his decease became the second wife of Judge Hugh Gelston.


Richard Woodhull was son of Richard Woodhull 3d and Mary daughter of John Homan. He was born October 11, 1719, and lived at Setauket on the estate inherited from his father. He married, in 1738, Margaret, daughter of Edmund Smith, son of Adam Smith, and grandson of the Patentee of Smith- town. She was born 1714, and died October 6, 1803. Justice Woodhull died October 13, 1788.


George Phillips was son of Rev. George Phillips of Smithtown, and many of his descendants are living in Suffolk County.


Richard Miller was a descendant of Andrew Miller, who came from Easthampton about 1659 and settled at Miller's Place (so named from him) in the town of Brookhaven. He married Dorothy Woodhull, sister of General Nathaniel Woodhull of Revolution- ary fame, and has many descendants.


Suffolk County, 1691-1703. 275


Nathaniel Baker was a descendant of John Baker, one of the early settlers of Easthampton, and was a prominent citizen for many years.


Isaac Barnes was also a native of Easthampton, and descended from Charles Barnes, the first school- master in that town.


Job Pierson was grandson of Lieutenant Colonel Henry Pierson. His homestead was at Sagg, in the town of Southampton, and on the west side of the street near the south end, and is still owned by his descendants.


Isaac Post lived in Southampton village, on the homestead now owned by William Jagger. He was killed by falling from a tree May 8, 1785, in the 74th year of his age. His widow married Bartlett Hines, a schoolmaster from Connecticut, and with her family removed to Honesdale, Pa., where his descendants are still to be found.


Robert Hempstead lived in Huntington, but we have no information concerning him.


Isaac Hubbard lived in the western part of South- old, now the town of Riverhead.


Nathaniel Woodhull was the famous general whose unhappy fate is so important an episode in our Revolutionary history, and so much has been written concerning him that any further notice is needless.


Jonas Williams lived in Huntington, and held many offices prior to the Revolution.


Thomas Jarvis also lived in Huntington, and was prominent in town affairs.

In the presence of us witnesses JOHN HOWELL JOHN COOPER.


Nov. 2, 1667.


This day the will of William Ludlam was proved in court. (Minutes of Court of Assizes)


NOTE .- William Ludlam lived at the water mill near the village of Southampton. This was the first water mill in Suffolk County. His son Joseph moved to Oyster Bay and has many descendants who retain the name of Ludlam. The families in Southampton have changed it to Ludlow. This will was recorded in Liber I, page I, New York Sur- rogate's office, but the first three pages are lost. The original will, however, is among the original documents in the office, and from it the above copy was made.

THOMAS HELME.


BY RICHARD M. BAYLES, ESQ.


The original Thomas Helme of Brookhaven town, tradition says, came here from Massachusetts, but little is known of his antecedents beyond this simple tradition. The records show that he was an active man in the primitive community, and a man of superior education and more than ordinary intelli- gence. Though his lineal representatives still pre- serve his name and some of his property, yet an unfortunate breaking up of the family in early years threw any records or documents that may have been left by him into the keeping of other hands, which had not the interest in preserving them that an immediate member of the family would be likely to have, and little remains to throw light on the life of the original settler except a copy of his will. He was not among the first who settled here, but appears to have been living at Setauket previous to 1680. And in that year he is mentioned as one of the owners of the " Fifty Acre Lots" near Mount Sinai, and it is probable that he had purchased a proprietary right from some former owner. He lived at Setauket, somewhere on the old road south of the present East Setauket schoolhouse. He had seven children, four daughters and three sons. To his eldest son Thomas he gave land at Miller's Place, and to his sons Anselm and William he gave


1


Suffolk County, 1691-1703. 279


his homestead at Setauket. The two younger sons conveyed their lands to others, and removed to Orange County, N. Y. Thomas Helme, the oldest son, was killed by a runaway team, at the hill just east of the Middle Island post office, about the year 1730. He left but one child, a son, Thomas, who was then but two or three years old, and was brought up by his uncle and guardian, Andrew Miller. After arriving at manhood he built the house at Miller's Place where Mr. George P. Helme, one of his descendants, now resides.


Thomas Helme, the original here, was a man of prominence in local affairs, and evidently had the respect of the people in a very high degree, and held many positions of honor. He was one of the Patentees of Brookhaven in 1686; was commis- sioned with Richard Woodhull to lay out Little Neck, in 1687 ; one of the witnesses to the will of Richard Smith, the Patentee of Smithtown, 1692; Supervisor of Brookhaven, 1694; Town Clerk, 1687; President of Town Trustees, 1694-1698; Justice of Peace from 1691 to 1706, and perhaps longer ; com- missioned to lay out highways in Suffolk County, 1704; County Clerk, 1692 to 1709, and in this capac- ity was ex officio Clerk of the Prerogative Court, as shown in this volume. All things show plainly that he was looked upon as an equal by the foremost men of his time, and conducted the affairs of all the various offices committed to his trust with great ability, and his clerical accomplishments are clearly

demonstrated by the admirable handwriting in which the records of the Prerogative Court, and County Clerk, made by him are preserved. It is worthy of mention that the widow of Wm. Smith, the progeni- tor of the "Tangier" family, in her will leaves a legacy of forty shillings to her friend Thomas Helme " to buy him a ring." After a life of useful- ness Thomas Helme died in 1710, but his age is unknown.

JUDGE WILLIAM SMITH.


William Smith was born at Newton, near Higham Ferrers, Northamptonshire, England, February 2, 1655. In 1675 King Charles II. appointed him Governor of Tangiers at a time when it was intended to make it a place of trade. The enter- prise did not succeed, and the place was abandoned in 1683, In 1686 he came to America, and shortly after purchased a large estate on Long Island, after- ward established by patent as the "manor of St. George"; a large part of which is still owned by his descendants.


The Supreme Court was established May 6, 1691, and consisted of a Chief Justice, a Second Judge, and three other judges, and among the latter was William Smith, who was at the same time appointed a judge or delegate of the Prerogative Court for Suffolk County. On November 11, 1692, he was appointed Chief Justice and held the office till 1703.


He died February 18, 170%, aged fifty-one.

* John Edwards was son of William Edwards, whose will (not re- corded) is among the original documents in the New York Surrogate's office. This will is dated February (, 105). He mentions wife Anne, and sons John and Thomas, and daughters Elizabeth Baker and Ann Squire. He also mentions " Wm and Josiah sons of my son John," and " William Edwards son of my son Thomas." The daughter Elizabeth was previously the widow of Richard Stratton, and had by her first marriage five children, Richard, Thomas, Laag, Benjamin, and Eliza- beth Stratton.


The will of Richard Stratton (not recorded) is also among the orig- inal documents in the New York Surrogate's office He mentions wife Elizabeth and the children named above, and " my father in law William Edwards." The will is dated April 7, 1974

+ The youngest son, Josiah Pierson. was born 1695 ; died 1782, His descendants are very numerous. Among them is the well known family known as the " Piersons of Ramapo," Rockland Co , N. Y. The tombstone of Colonel Henry Pierson, in the old burying ground at Sagy, has been restored by Mrs. Russell Sage, his descendant of the fifth generation
