(V) Frans Van Der Bogart, son of Albert (2) Vedder, was born January 1, 1764, died April 3, 1811. He married, December 15, 1788, Lena, daughter of Thomas Bronwer, born May 5, 1769, died April 7, 1834. Chil- dren: Annatia, Albert, Jacob (of further
mention), Johannes, Esther, Margarita, Nicholas, Elizabeth C.
(VI) Jacob, son of Frans Van Der Bogart Vedder, was born April 30, 1796, died Janu- ary 17, 1855. He married Margaret Gouver- neur and settled in Ellicottville, Cattaraugus county, New York, where he died. Among his children was a son, Commodore Perry (of whom further).
(VII) Commodore Perry Vedder, son of Jacob and Margaret (Gouverneur) Vedder, was born in Ellicottville, Cattaraugus county, New York, February 23, 1838, died there De- cember, 1910. His career was a most re- markable one. Born in a log house on a newly settled farm, he obtained such education as the district afforded and worked at home until he was thirteen years of age. At that age he became a driver boy on the Erie canal and a year later was raftsman on the Alleghany river, going to Pittsburg and down the Ohio to Cincinnati. From the latter city he made his way to Cleveland, Ohio, where he shipped before the mast on the brig "Alert," bound for Chicago. He followed the life of a sailor on the lakes for three years, becoming first mate, and in 1858 and 1859 commanded a ves- sel, being yet under legal age. He saved his money and, returning to New York, entered Springville Academy to complete his prepara- tory education, intending later to enter college. During the winters of 1859-60-61-62 he taught school, and in 1861 began the study of law with Judge David H. Bolles. The civil war changed all his plans, and leaving all his pros- pects behind he went to the defense of his country's flag. He enlisted in August, 1862, as a private in the One Hundred and Fifty- fourth Regiment, New York Infantry, and for gallant conduct was promoted first lien- tenant and later captain. At the battle of Lookout Mountain he was brevetted major by President Lincoln in the regular United States army "for gallant and meritorious conduct," and also received four other commissions for bravery. At the battle of Rocky Face Ridge he was wounded, but declined to accept a fur- lough after leaving the hospital. Not being able yet for field duty, he was appointed by President Lincoln to examine applicants for commissions in colored regiments, with head- quarters at Chattanooga, Tennessee. Again taking the field with his regiment, he was in the bloody battle of Chancellorsville, where he was taken prisoner and for two weeks was

confined in Libby prison at Richmond. He was paroled and while under parole was detailed by the secretary of war to take charge of the camp of paroled prisoners near Alexandria, Virginia. In the fall of 1863 he was trans- ferred with the Army of the Cumberland. He participated in the battles: Chancellors- ville, Wauhatchie, Lookout Valley, Lookout Mountain, Mission Ridge, Rocky Face Ridge, siege of Savannah, and was with Sherman on his celebrated march from Chattanooga to Knoxville, Tennessee, to relieve General Burn- side. He was also with Sherman from "At- lanta to the Sea." He was promoted as before stated, and for "bravery in battle" in the cam- paign from Chattanooga to Atlanta was com- missioned lieutenant-colonel. He was honor- ably discharged at the close of the war and returned to more peaceful pursuits.
He resumed the study of law and during the winter of 1865-66 attended Albany Law School, and on May 7, 1866, was admitted to the New York bar at Buffalo. His success in civil life as a lawyer and a legislator and a business man was as complete and conspicuous as his record in the army was honorable and brilliant. In May, 1867, he was admitted in the district court of the United States for the northern district of New York. In the same year he was appointed register in bank- ruptcy, resigning that appointment in 1875 to enter the state senate. From 1872 to 1875, inclusive, he was a member of the assembly. In 1869 he had been appointed United States assessor of internal revenue, holding that office for two years. In 1872, as a member of the judiciary committee of the house, he assisted in investigating the charges against the unjust judges of New York City, Cardozo, McCunn and Barnard. He was chairman of the com- mittee to draft articles of impeachment against Judge Barnard and was appointed one of the managers on the trial of that official before the high court of impeachment for maladmin- istration in office. In 1875 he was elected state senator, serving during the sessions of 1876-77, holding the chairmanship of the com- mittees on Indian affairs and internal affairs. In 1880 he was appointed state assessor by Governor Cornell, holding office three years. It is asserted that no man ever did more to lighten the burdens of taxation upon those least able to bear them. In 1884 he was again elected to the senate, holding under three consecutive re-elections. During his last
eight years in the senate he was chairman of the committee on taxation and retrenchment. At all times he took a leading part in the de- bates and deliberations of the senate. Hold- ing membership on several important commit- tees, he influenced much legislation besides the bills that bore his name. He introduced the bill to tax gifts, legacies and collateral inheri- tance that became a law in 1885. Also the bill amending the collateral inheritance act, which amended act became a law in 1891, under which the succession by death of per- sonal property of $10,000 or more is taxed one per cent. He drafted and introduced a bill taxing corporations for the privilege of organizing, which became a law in 1866. As a result of these acts millions of dollars have been paid into the treasury of the state and a permanent source of revenue provided. In 1894 he was chosen a delegate-at-large to the constitutional convention held at Albany, of which Joseph Choate was president, and after, by his solicitation, Senator Vedder was presi- dent pro tem .; he served on several important committees. Of the thirty-three amendments proposed by the convention and adopted by the people, he drafted and introduced four. Too much cannot be said of the sagacity, zeal and untiring devotion to the public interest displayed by Mr. Vedder in every position of public trust and responsibility to which he has been called. The constitution and laws of his state alike attest his wisdom and his worth. Another bill which does not bear his name but which was a modification of a bill he had ready to introduce is the liquor law, known as the "Raines Law." Many conferences were held at Ellicottville between Senators Vedder and Raines, the result being the bill introduced ·by the latter.
In the business world Colonel Vedder was an important factor. He was president of fourteen corporations and maintained a busi- ness office in New York City. For twenty years he was president of the Bank of Ellicottville, and for twenty-four years president of the Bank of Norwood in St. Lawrence county, New York; also president of the New York and New Jersey Ice Lines, of New York, and of Elko Milling, Mining and Manufacturing Company, of Ran- dolph. He was professionally associated as partner with William Manley, of Ellicottville, for several years; with Judge Rensselaer Lamb from 1869 until the judge's death in

1871; with George M. Rider from 1876 until 1884 as Vedder & Rider, and with James O. Clark, of Ellicottville. Having accumulated a large fortune, his latter years were spent in comparative retirement, surrounded by all that makes life pleasant. He held membership in many societies, clubs and institutions of va- rious kinds and was everywhere treated with distinguished consideration. He held member- ship in the Grand Army of the Republic and was ever the friend of the old soldier. He was devoted to the interests of his native town, which he furthered in every possible way. His useful, honored life closed with about the allotted scriptural period "three score years and ten."
He married (first) in 1862, Betty E. Squires, of Springville, who bore a son, who died in 1882. She died 1884. He married (second), 1892, Mrs. Genevieve A. (Hill) Wheeler, daughter of Thomas A. and Hannah (War- ren) Hill, of Chicago, and granddaughter of Arthur Hill, of Baltimore. Her maternal grandparents are Cotton Mather and Annie (Fairfield) Warren. Mrs. Genevieve A. Ved- der survives her husband and resides in New York City.
FAY This name dates to a remote period, even to the days of mythology. Fays or fairies would seem to have always existed if ancient writings can be trusted. As a surname it is frequently found in France, also in Ireland, Germany, Spain, Italy, Switzerland, although less fre- quently in the latter countries. The family is believed to be of French origin. They are said to have been Huguenots, who to escape persecution fled to England and Wales, from there settling in Ireland and New England. The name as a patronymic first appears in English records in 1173, has existed in Ireland for an indefinite period, and is occasionally met with in Scotland. The Fays, like many other ancient families, possess special char- acteristics, prominent among them being men- tal and physical strength, untiring energy and remarkable executive ability.
The New England Fays descend from John Fay, who arrived in Boston in the "Speedwell" from Gravesend, England, June 27, 1656. Savage says he was eight years old, but other authorities state he was probably eighteen. He was born in England and is thought by some writers to have been a son of David Fay, then
a resident of Sudbury, Massachusetts, and that he came from England to join his father. This cannot be established and John Fay must be considered the emigrant ancestor. He went to Sudbury and afterward to the new town of Marlboro, where he was admitted a free- man in 1669. At that time he was married and had one child. His name first appears in the town records of Marlborough in 1671 as a petitioner for a grant of land. In 1675 he was one of the proprietors of Worcester, Massachusetts, and had a lot assigned him in the eastern squadron, lying next to the county road to Boston. He, however, continued his residence in Marlborough until its dangerous situation during King Philip's war compelled the settlers to seek safety in larger, better de- fended towns. John Fay retired to Water- town, where his first wife died and he again married. While living there he was made a trustee of the estate of Reynold Bush, of Cam- bridge, who was about to marry Susanna Lowell, of Beverly, Wiltshire, England. He was one of those who in 1678 attempted to settle Worcester, but did not remain, returning to his old home in Marlboro, where he died in that part of the town now Southboro, Decem- ber 5, 1690. He appears to have been a man of character and standing in the community, where he held positions of public trust. His widow, Susanna, administered an inventory with the statement that her late husband, John Fay, had by will disposed of the rest of his property in providing for his children. This will is not on record and may have been verbal. As he gave to each of his sons large tracts of land, he must have been for his day quite a large land owner.
He married (first) Mary, born in Water- town, 1638-39, died there 1676, daughter of Thomas Brigham, the American ancestor of the New England family. He was born in England, 1603, came to America, 1635, in the ship "Susan and Ellen," settled in Watertown, where he held several town offices. He mar- ried Mercy Hurd, born in England. Mary was the first child born to her parents in America ; her marriage to John Fay was the first of a series of nearly thirty marriages between the Fays and Brighams. He married (second) July 15, 1678, Susanna (Shattuck) Morse, daughter of William Shattuck, the pioneer of Watertown, Massachusetts, where she was born in 1643. She survived her second husband and married a third, July 30,

(II) Samuel, third son of John Fay and his first wife, Mary (Brigham) Fay, was born in Marlboro, Massachusetts, October 11, 1673, died November 10, 1732. He settled in that part of the town now Westboro, being one of the first residents there when it was set off from Marlboro in 1717. He and his wife offered themselves for baptism in the Marl- boro church in 1701. He was chosen surveyor of highways in 1718, served to 1720, and in 1721 was tythingman. He succeeded his broth- er John as town clerk and in 1728-29-30 was sealer of leather. He owned land in South- boro and a large tract in Brookfield. He left a will that was not probated, the estate being settled by agreement of the heirs. He married May 16, 1699, Tabitha, born May 16, 1675, daughter of Increase and Record Ward.

(V) Nehemiah, second son of Joseph and Abigail (Twitchell) Fay, was born in Athol, Massachusetts, December 10, 1776, died at Little Valley, Cattaraugus county, New York, May 23, 1856. He was educated in the district school, and in his youthful manhood spent several years traveling about the country, threshing, etc. He was a natural musician with a good voice and a great fund of anec- dote. This made him a welcome visitor every- where. He was a member of the militia and served during the war of 1812 at Boston, when that city was believed to be in danger of attack. In 1803 he married, and in 1815, in com- pany with his brother Benjamin, he removed to Boston Corners, near Springville, Erie county, New York, where they cleared a farm, where Nehemiah resided until 1837. The jour- ney was made with ox teams, and family tradi- tion says the journey consumed but little over a month's time. He worked at shingle mak- ing, continuing this work until almost the day of his death. In his later years he became almost blind. As an old man he retained his love of song, anecdote and jest, and was a great favorite among the children and young people. He sold his interest in the farm at Boston Corners to his brother, in 1837, and removed to Little Valley, Cattaraugus county, and in a few years to Great Valley, in the same county. He always maintained that when he should lose his voice he would be ready to die. During his last illness he awoke one morning to find his voice almost gone.
Turning to his daughter-in-law he said, "Lecta, I can't live long. I can't sing any more." Before night he breathed his last. He was an industrious, kind-hearted man, with hosts of friends and no enemies. In 1849 he went to Illinois, but did not long remain, re- turning to Little Valley.
He married, in 1803, Achsah Stratton, of New Salem, Massachusetts, born 1772, died in Great Valley, New York, June, 1870, hav- ing survived her husband fourteen years. Children: 1.

James S., died in 1810, at Salamanca, New York; married Mary Ferry ; six children. 4. Alcander (of further men- tion ).
(VI) Alcander, youngest child of Nehemiah and Achsah (Stratton) Fay, was born at Con- cord, Erie county, New York, September 29, 1816. He was educated in the public schools of Springville and Great Valley, coming with his parents to Cattaraugus county, in 1837. He was a farmer and cooper, and in 1856 purchased a large farm at Elkdale. He was a great lover of the chase, being one of the hunters of western New York. During the civil war he enlisted in the Ninety-fourth Regiment, New York Volunteer Infantry, but owing to illness saw little actual service. He was a member of the Baptist church, the In- dependent Order of Odd Fellows, and a Re- publican in politics. Excepting two years spent in the west, his whole life after 1837 was spent in Cattaraugus county.
He married (first) May 14. 1839, Electa Clement, born 1814, died in Great Valley, New York, April 1, 1886. He married (second) April 27, 1892; Mary Chase. Children, all by first marriage: 1.

The house in which he was born is still standing on the old farm. He was educated in the public schools, and until he was seventeen worked on the home farm. He enlisted (Jan- uary 16, 1864) as a bugler of Company F, Ninth Regiment, New York Cavalry, serving under General Sheridan until the close of the war, being honorably discharged June 17, 1865. He saw a great deal of active service but escaped unhurt. On his return from the war he brought with him a fine horse, a most intelligent animal, which he kept for twenty years. Mr. Fay bought a farm on Fish Hill, which he cultivated for some time, then went to Des Moines, Iowa, where he worked at carpentering for three years. On his return in 1872 he settled in Mansfield, thence re- moved to Otto, remaining until 1892, when he removed to Salamanca, his present home. He is a most interesting, lovable man, and like his grandfather, Nehemiah Fay, full of fun and greatly beloved.
