Mercy Billington was the daughter of Francis Billington, born in England, came to America in the "Mayflower," in 1620. He was the dis- coverer of the inland lake which yet bears the name of the Billington Sea. He married, in 1634, the widow of Francis Eaton, another "Mayflower" passenger. Her maiden name was Christian Penn, a passenger on the ship "Ann," in 1623. Francis was the son of John Billington, also a "Mayflower" passenger, and his wife Ellen.
(II) John (2), eldest son of John (1) and Mercy (Billington) Martin, was born at Reho- both, June 1, 1682. He followed the trade of tailor. Page 177, volume I, of Rehoboth vital records, reads : "Married, John Martin, junior, and Sarah Wilmarth, both of Rehoboth July 17, 1710." John Martin died in the same town November 3, 1759, Sarah Wilmarth, born there December 21, 1682, died March 7, 1728. She was the daughter of John and Ruth (Kendrick ) Wilmarth. Ruth, born February 16, 1649, was the daughter of George and Ruth (Bowen) Kendrick. George Kendrick came in the ship with Rev. Richard Mather from Bristol, England, May 23, 1635. He was a volunteer in the Pequot war of 1637, and a town officer of Boston in 1640. Many other early colonial ancestors could be quoted.
(III) Robert, third child and son of John (2) and Sarah Martin, was born July 2, 1718, at Rehoboth, and settled in Attleborough, Mas- sachusetts. Page 158, book I, records of the latter town, record his marriage: "Robert Martin and Elizabeth Welman, married April 30, 1741.'
(IV) John (3), eldest son of Robert and Elizabeth Martin, was born at Attleborough, October 30, 1742. Page 23, book 4, town rec- ords, gives his marriage with "Margrit" Rich- ardson, and the names of their nine children. John and the entire Martin family were active patriots and minute-men in the war of the revolution. Twenty John Martins served in that war from Massachusetts alone; this ren- ders it difficult to separate the individual ser- vice of this particular John Martin, but the following is considered correct : "John Martin, copy of an order on Ephraim Newell, town treasurer of Attleborough, dated July 5, 1776, for wages due said Martin and others for service on the alarm caused by the battle of Bunker Hill, also in Captain Stephen Richard- son's Fourth (Second Attleborough, also given as Attleborough No. 12) company of

Colonel Daggett's regiment ; list of men who served in the eighth (also given as the ninth) campaign; said service known as the two months campaign at New York in 1776; said Martin credited with one-half a turn." "John Martin, private in Captain Alexander Foster's company of Colonel John Daggett's regiment ; service twenty-five days; company marched to Rhode Island on the alarm of December 8, 1777 (1776); also in Captain Alexander Foster's company of Colonel Isaac Dean's regi- ment; marched July 31, 1780; service ten days; company marched to Tiverton, Rhode Island, on the alarm of July 31, 1780." Roll sworn to at Attleborough.
(V) John (4), eldest son and fourth child of John (3) and Margaret Martin, was born at Attleborough, Massachusetts, May 21, 1776. His boyhood days and youthful manhood were spent in that town, but about the year 1800 he moved to Leverett, Massachusetts. There is no record of his marriage found there ow- ing, as the present record states, to the fact that "the records from 1774 until about 1840 at Leverett are very irregular and imperfect." There is, however, a record of a deed of 1811 by which John and Dorothy Martin conveyed land upon the eve of their removal to Mad- ison county, New York. He married Dorothy Smith, born at Montague, Massachusetts, 1784. He died March 2, 1860, and Dorothy, his wife, March 22, 1873, and both are buried in the South Cemetery, Cazenovia, New York (see Smith).
(VI) Hiram, seventh child and fourth son of John (4) and Dorothy (Smith) Martin, was born in Cazenovia, Madison county, New York, October 25, 1822, died in Chicago, Illi- nois, January 29, 1893. He settled in the west, residing in Iowa and Nebraska. He was a farmer most of his life. In religion he was a Methodist and in politics a Republican. He married, June 21, 1851, at Newark, New York, Ann Eliza McMannis, born March 30, 1832, died September 4, 1871, daughter of Kinney and Martha (Foster) McMannis, the latter born at Westfield, New Jersey, January 13, 1805. Hiram and Ann Eliza McMannis are buried at Sauquoit Cemetery, Clayville, New York.
(VII) Darwin Denice, son of Hiram Mar- tin, was born in Bouckv le, Madison county, New York, October 25, 1865. He was edu- cated in the public schools of Iowa and Ne- braska, in which states his parents resided until
he was thirteen years old, when they returned to Buffalo. In 1878 he entered the employ of J. D. Larkin & Co., of Buffalo, as office boy, and proved so satisfactory in that position that he was rapidly promoted. He filled each sta- tion so capably that he was constantly in line for advancement. In 1892 he was elected a director of the Larkin Soap Manufacturing Company, successors to J. D. Larkin & Co. In 1893 he was elected secretary of the Lar- kin Soap Manufacturing Co., continuing on the board of directors. In 1899 the Larkin Soap Co. was organized, of which Mr. Martin was chosen secretary and director. In 1904 all the Larkin interests were incorporated as The Larkin Co., with the original founder of the business, John D. Larkin, president, and Mr. Martin, secretary and member of the board of directors. This position he now (1912) fills, after thirty-four years continuous association with the Larkin companies. The Larkin Co. is too well known in every part of the United States to need any extended men- tion here. Their immense plant located in Buffalo, is visited yearly by thousands of tour- ists from all over the world, while their prod- ucts are to be found in daily use in every town, county, state and territory in our coun- try. They have made the Larkin Idea "Fac- tory to Family" very popular, and from a small beginning have become one of the great- est manufacturing and distributing companies in the world. In all their growth and devel- opment Mr. Martin has borne a conspicuous part. For seven years he has been a director of the Buffalo Chamber of Commerce, and both interested and helpful in all that concerns the welfare of his city. He is an Independent Republican in politics, and a member of the Church of Christ (Scientist).
He married, January 26, 1889, at Buffalo, Isabelle, granddaughter of John and daughter of Alexander W. Reidpath, born in Mussel- burg (now a part of the city of Edinburg), Scotland, April 30, 1841, died in Buffalo, New York, June 8, 1885. He came to the United States prior to 1861, locating in Buffalo, New York, where he engaged in merchandis- ing and in the seventies was at East Aurora in the canning business. During the civil war he served three years in the Twenty-first Reg- iment New York Volunteers. He then served in the Seventy-fourth Regiment as a substi- tute for his brother until the close of the war, when he was honorably discharged. He mar-

HAWLEY The Hawleys are of ancient English lineage tracing back to the Norman Conquest. They were long seated in Derbyshire, from which branch Joseph Hawley, the American emi- grant, sprang. The Derbyshire family were titled and bore arms: Emerald, a saltire in- grailed pearl. Crest : An Indian goat's head holding a three-leaved sprig of holly, proper. Motto: Suivez Moy.
(I) Joseph Hawley, ancestor of the Con- necticut branch of the Hawleys, came to America in 1629 or 1630. His English home was Parwidge, now Parwich, in Derbyshire, where he owned lands and buildings which he disposed of in his will. It is supposed he was born about 1603 and married when he came to America and that his wife died without issue. The first record of him was made by himself in Stratford, Connecticut, in 1650. Where he passed the intervening twenty years is a matter of conjecture. He was town clerk of Stratford from 1650 until 1666, and during that time most of the records are in his handwriting. His handwriting is of a style in which all public documents were entered in the state books in London, England, at that time, and this infers that Joseph learned his style of writing in that city, and possibly in connection with the state department. He be- came a large land owner, holding between four and five thousand acres. In 1668 he pur- chased land in the adjoining new town of Derby and he acquired further holdings in that town. His public services were almost continuous from 1650 until his decease, May 20, 1690. Besides being town clerk, or re- corder, he was treasurer of the town; was chosen for several years by the town "to keep an ordinary," then one of the most important offices in town ; was on important committees : was deputy to the general assembly of Con- necticut, thirty sessions; was commissioner (same as justice of the peace) from 1682 until death, 1690; was a member of the church and of great usefulness there.
His second wife, Katherine - -, survived him and is mentioned in his will. Children: Samuel, of further mention; Joseph, Eliza- beth, Ebenezer, Hannah, Ephraim, John and Mary.
(II) Samuel, eldest son of Joseph Haw- ley, "the emigrant," was born 1647, died 1691. He came to Stratford with his parents in 1650 and always lived there except for a short resi-
dence in Derby. He was a farmer and a very large land owner, continuing to accumulate until near the close of life. Most of it he gave to his children before his death. He was one of the thirty-six original proprietors of the town of Newton, Connecticut, and had lands there. He was a prominent citizen, member of the church and town officer. He served seven terms in the colonial assembly. his father having served in the same thirty terms. He married ( first) Mary. daughter of Thomas and Ann ( Welles) Thompson, of Wethersfield, Connecticut. Ann Welles was a daughter of Governor Thomas Welles, of Connecticut. He married (second) Patience, widow of Lieutenant John Hubbell. Children : Samuel (2), Captain Joseph, Deacon Thomas, Matthew. Ebenezer. Jehiel, Elizabeth, Eph- raim, Catherine, Stephen, Benjamin, Mary and Nathaniel.
(III) Captain Joseph (2) Hawley, son of Samuel Hawley, was born June 6. 1675, died November 20, 1752. He became a large land owner and man of prominence. At the age of twenty-one he settled in Farmington, Con- necticut. rising to political and military dis- tinction there. He was ensign, 1716; lieuten- ant, 1717: captain, 1723; elected eighteen terms to the colonial assembly between 1719 and 1738, making the third in direct line to serve long terms. In sixty-six years, father, son and grandson served fifty-seven years. while other members of the family were in the same office in later years. He married. 1697, Elizabeth Wilcoxson, born November 6. 1673, died September 10, 1762, daughter of Timothy and Joana (Birdsey) Wilcoxson. Children: Mary Elizabeth, Joseph, Timothy. Hannah. Samuel, Jehiel, Ebenezer, Abel.
(IV) Ebenezer. son of Captain Joseph (2) Hawley, was born December 10, 1713, died March 3. 1769. He resided at Farmington. Connecticut. He married (first) Mary. daughter of Hawkins Hart. She died Novem- ber 12. 1756. aged thirty-seven years. He married (second) Keziah, daughter of Dea- con James Smith. She died January 2, 1802, aged seventy-four years. Mary Hart (first wife) was a descendant of Deacon Stephen Hart, of Cambridge, Massachusetts, in 1632: came from Braintree. England; was one of the founders of the Farmington church, resid- ing there after a short stay in Hartford, Con- necticut. Children: Sarah. Asa, Benjamin. Ebenezer (2), Mary, Esther, Amos. died

According to Burke, the Swete
SWETT or Swett family bore arms: "Gules two chevrons between as many mullets in chief and a rose in base ar- gent seeded or." Crest : "A mullet or pierced azure between two gilly flowers proper." The family was formerly of Trayne, later of Ox- ton, in Devonshire, England, which county furnished many colonists to New England.
(I) John Swett, first of whom record ap- pears in America, was admitted to the freedom of the Massachusetts Colony, May 18, 1642. He was one of the grantees of Newbury, Mas- sachusetts, December 7, 1642. It has been supposed that he was connected with the Swete family of Oxton, Devonshire, England (see New England Register, vol vii, where the Swete coat-of-arms is shown). The history of Barnstable county, Massachusetts, says that John Swett came to Newbury from the Isle of Guernsey, and that some of his descendants settled in Weelfleet and Truro. There seems, however, to be no connection between the Swetts of Cape Cod and those of Newbury. Sarah, wife of John Swett, died December II, 1650. He may have had a second wife, Phebe, who died a widow, May 6, 1665. John Swett lived on the first lot east of the old land- ing at Parker's River, near the end of the present electric road. He died in Newbury, January 13, 1651-52. Children : 1. John, born about 1603; married (first) Mercy Rouse ; (second) Jane -; lived in Charlestown, Massachusetts. 2.

(II) Captain Benjamin Swett, son of John Swett. the immigrant, was born in England, 1626. He lived for seven years on the Wood- bridge farm in Newbury, Massachusetts, where the Woodbridge school now stands. He removed to Hampton, New Hampshire, where he was one of the leading men. He lived at what is now Hampton Falls, on the farm later owned by Miss Gove, in the house where the poet, Whittier, died. He was selectman and representative. He served as captain of mili- tia, and commanded the expedition to Black Point, Scarborough, Maine, where he was killed in battle with the Indians, June 29, 1677. He was a brave soldier and a sagacious, skill-
ful officer. He married, November 1, 1647, Hester, daughter of Nathaniel Weare. She married (second), March 31, 1679, Ensign Stephen Greenleaf. She died in Hampton, New Hampshire, January 16, 1718, aged eighty-nine years. He had seven children re- corded in Newbury and four in Hampton: I.

who died August 14, 1701 ; (second), Novem- ber 20, 1701, Sarah, daughter of Thomas and Martha (Baker) Andrews, of Boxford, Mas- sachusetts. His will, dated September 29, 1720, probated January, 1721-22, names wife Sarah and her children, unnamed, and son Joseph, and daughters Esther Eaton, Margaret Sherburne and Abigail Swett. His widow mar- ried, January 1, 1723, Charles Treadwell.
