Benjamin Horton married, January 25. 1815, his cousin, Adah, daughter of Esek and Martha (Brown) Angell, of Pownal, Ver-
mont. She was a descendant of four of the thirteen signers of the first written compact of the Providence plantations; a lineal de- scendant of two governors, Winthrop and Williams, the latter "the first person in mod- ern christendom to establish civil government on the doctrine of liberty of conscience, the equality of opinion before the law." This ancestry opens the door of all colonial soci- eties to her descendants.
(VII) Albert, son of Benjamin Horton, was born in Berkshire Hills, Massachusetts, December, 1818, died at Silver Creek, Chau- tauqua county, New York, March 22, 1882. He came from Massachusetts to Chautauqua county a babe in arms, with his parents, and grew to manhood on the farm at Angell's Settlement, town of Hanover. He remained on the old homestead, engaged in farming, lumbering and operating a saw mill. He hauled the product of his mill to Silver Creek, where a large amount of it was used in the construction of houses at that village. He held no public office, but was always active in public affairs and served in the town mili- tary company. He married Mary Ann Wax- ham, born in Cambridge, England, about 1820, died at Silver Creek. She came to the United States with her father, after the death of her mother, settling in Hanover, Chautau- qua county, in 1832. Children: Helen C., married Henry Montgomery ; Elmer, of whom further ; Walter, died in infancy; Charles C., of whom further.
(VIII) Elmer, eldest son of Albert Hor- ton, was born at Angell's Settlement, town of Hanover, Chautauqua county, New York, May 4, 1845. He was educated in the public school, and remained on the old homestead several years. Later he engaged in the oil business in Pennsylvania, returning to Chau- tauqua county in 1879, and in company with his brother, Charles C., established the drug and grocery firm of Horton Brothers, at Sil- ver Creek. After a successful mercantile life of over a quarter of a century in that village, they sold their interests and retired. In 1891 the brothers planted their first grape vine- yard. Since then they have been successful cultivators of the grape, and now own jointly about seventy-five acres in bearing. Mr. Hor- ton is a Republican in politics ; a member and trustee of the Methodist Episcopal church, also holding official position on the cemetery board of directors.

He was educated in the public schools, finishing with a course at Eastman's Business College, Poughkeepsie. He taught school for one year in Silver Creek. In 1879, in company with his brother Elmer, trading as Horton Brothers, they es- tablished a drug and grocery store, which was continued in successful operation until Feb- ruary, 1908, when they sold out. In addition to their mercantile business, the brothers en- gaged in grape culture, having between them about seventy-five acres of bearing vineyard. Charles C. Horton, in 1898, was appointed by President Mckinley postmaster at Silver Creek, and has been successively reappointed to that office by Presidents Roosevelt and Taft, and is the present incumbent (19II).

The Terrys of Salamanca de- TERRY scend from Irish ancestors whose coming to this country is a matter of conjecture. In 1790 there were more than fifty families bearing the name liv- ing in Montgomery county, New York, alone, while in New England they are found at an early date in nearly every colony, also in New Jersey. Terry is a name common in some form to several nations, according to Fergu- son in his "Teutonic Name System." Samuel Terry, of New York City, classes it among the early French names, under the form of Therry. The first record of the name is found in America, October 15, 1650, when the boy, Samuel Terry, was apprenticed to Samuel Pynchon to be taught the trade of linen spin- ner. We know the Terrys were seated in Montgomery county, New York, prior to the revolution, but no definite date can be given earlier than 1818 concerning the family here- in recorded, although they were residents of Allegany county, New York, previous to that date.
(II) William A. Terry was born in Alle- gany county, New York, August 16, 1818, died April 22, 1893. He was left an orphan when a young child, the eldest of three chil- dren-William A., Charles and Laura Ann. He received a limited education in the country school, and was early apprenticed to the mil- lers' trade, a vocation he followed for over fifty years, the greater part of this period being passed in Cattaraugus county. He was a Whig in politics, later a Republican, and a Protestant in religious faith. He married Lu- cretia R. Thomas, an orphan, born October 9, 1819, died May 1, 1881. Children: I. Alan- son T., who enlisted in the Ninth Regiment, New York Cavalry; fought at the first Bull Run ; was injured and later received an hon-

orable discharge. After returning home he married Emma Trace, of Meadville, Pennsyl- vania, and engaged in railroading on the At- lantic & Great Western, now a part of the Erie system ; at the time of his death he was engine dispatcher at Kent, Ohio. Children: Laura and Arthur. 2. Charles W., of further mention. 3. Chester F., born in Rushford, Alle- gany county, New York, died at Jamestown, New York.

He became an employee on the At- lantic & Great Western railroad, beginning as fireman, promoted engineer, and held that po- sition many years until his death. He married Rachel E. Trace, of Meadville, Pennsylvania, now deceased. Children: Grace, Leroy and Belle. 4. Frank, born at Rushford, New York, was educated in the public schools of Cattaraugus county ; became first a fireman, then engineer, but for several years has been unable to follow any business on account of injuries received, and a paralyzed arm. 5.

Lenox, of Cattaraugus, New York, remaining two years. He then spent several years at Phila- delphia Dental College, becoming well equipped for the practice of his profession. He spent three years in practice at Salamanca, then in Cattaraugus and Newark, New York, until 1894, when he located in Buffalo, where he is now in practice. He married, July 18, 1880, Emma Taft, born February 2, 1855; child : Lucretia Laura, born November 10, 1881.
(III) Charles W., second son of William A. and Lucretia R. (Thomas) Terry, was born in Franklinville, Cattaraugus county, New York, March 25, 1846. He was edu- cated principally at Chamberlain Institute, at Randolph, New York, where he passed the examinations and received his academic cer- tificate. He taught one year at Chamberlain Institute, and for another year was principal of the public school at East Randolph. Au- gust 4, 1864, he enlisted in Company K, Ninth Regiment New York Cavalry, serving under General Phil Sheridan from Winchester to Appomattox, receiving honorable discharge in June, 1865. He was then for nine years en- gaged in the drug and grocery business in East Randolph, New York, during this period
holding the offices of town clerk, deputy, post- master and justice of the peace. In 1876 he registered as a law student in the office of M. Van Benson, but never applied for admis- sion to the bar until 1893, when he passed the examinations, and received his diploma. In 1877 he was appointed deputy collector of internal revenue by F. Bull, collector at Buf- falo, and was placed in charge of the counties of Chautauqua and Cattaraugus. In the fall of 1877 and each year thereafter until 1882 he was elected journal clerk of the board of supervision of Cattaraugus county. At the fall elections of 1882 he was elected clerk of Cattaraugus county, being the regular Repub- lican nominee for the full term of three years. In 1886 he again took up his residence in Randolph, where he was president of the vil- lage corporation two years and supervisor of the town five years; also for several years a member of the Republican county committee, and for a few years its chairman.
In 1893 he was elected to the state legisla- ture as the regular Republican nominee, and was appointed by Speaker George R. Maltby to the chairmanship of the committee on In- dian affairs, and to the committees on codes, judiciary and public health. He was re- elected in 1894, and appointed by Speaker Hamilton Fish to be junior chairman on the committee on revision, and to committees on judiciary, codes and privileges and elections. His natural business ability, combined with legal education and knowledge of legal pro- cedure, rendered him a valuable public offi- cial, and one fully appreciated by his constitu- ents and fellow members. In 1898 he formed a copartnership with R. R. Crowley, attorney, and for three years was engaged in the prac- tice of law. In 1900 he moved his residence to Salamanca, where he helped to organize the Salamanca Furniture Works, a very success- ful company, of which he is vice-president and general manager. He was a director of the Veneer Panel Company, and is a director of the Salamanca Trust Company. In 1895 he was elected president of the village of Sala- manca, and reelected in 1896. On August 5, 1908, he was elected member of the board of education ; on August 9, 1910. he was elected president of the board ; again elected member in May, 1911, and reelected president of board in August, 1911.

(I) Isaac Willey, immigrant ancestor, was in Boston, Massachusetts, as early as 1640.
Before 1644 he removed to Charles- town, Massachusetts, where the records of his children are found, in addition to those records in the Boston record of births. In 1645 he went with John Winthrop Jr. to New London, Connecticut, where he died about 1685. His house lot was on Mill brook, at the foot of Post hill. He was a farmer, and in a short time moved to a farm at the head of Nahantic river, which in 1664 was confirmed to "old Goodman Willie." Their children were doubtless all born before they moved here. In 1645 he and John Stebbins mowed the meadows of the Upper Mamacook. He was chosen at a meeting, February 25, 1647, with John Winthrop, Robert Hemp- steed, Samuel Lothroup and Thomas Minor, "to act in all Toune affairs," and at the same time he was granted a planting lot near the cove. He was one of sixteen who had cattle marks before 1650. In May, 1649, he was before the general court with two others, charged with resisting a constable and letting go an Indian committed to their charge, and they were summoned to appear at Hartford to answer for their conduct. About 1652 he received two grants of land east of Pequot river, and he sold them to Amos Richard- son. In 1669 his name was on a list of twenty-one freemen. On November 29, 1669, he was on a committee for laying out the King's highway between New London and the head of the Niantic river. On March 12, 1671-72, he was among those ar- raigned at Hartford "for attempts by vio- lence to drive Mr. Mathew Griswold and Lieut. Wm. Waller off their lands, and re- sistance to authority and assault." This shows that he was among those who parti- cipated in the affray in August, 1671, because of disputed lands between New London and Lyme. In 1667 Goodwife Willey was brought before court and fined five shillings "for not attending public worship and bringing her children thither."
He married (first) Joanna -, who died in New London. He married (second) af- ter 1670, Anna, widow of Edward Lester, and she died in 1692. Children, by first wife: Joanna, birth not recorded; (Savage doubts her existence; Miss Caulkins says she was
second wife of Robert Hempstead, who died at New London in June, 1655, after which she married Andrew Lester) ; Isaac, baptized on his mother's right at Boston, August 2, 1640; Hannah, baptized in Boston, March 6, 1641-42; Sarah, born at Charlestown, June 19, 1644; Mary, born about 1646; John, men- tioned below; Abraham, at New London, perhaps about 1650.
(II) John, son of Isaac Willey, was born at New London about 1648. He was one of those who made the mill dam. He lived be- yond the head of Nahantic; when the bounds between New London and Lyme were settled, his farm was split by the line, leaving twenty acres with his house in New London. On September 23, 1682, land was confirmed to him in Lyme, and this land with some in New London was sold February 17, 1692-93. There are records of other land bought by him. He died at Haddam, Connecticut, May 2, 1688, and his wife was administratrix of his estate. He married, at New London, March 18, 1668-69, Miriam, daughter of Miles and Isabel (Joyner) Moore, and she married (second) in 1689, Samuel Spencer. Children, born at New London: Isaac, Jan- uary 18, 1670-71; Isabel, October 21, 1673; John, mentioned below; Miriam, November I, 1677; Allen, June 25, 1680; Abel, March 3, 1682-83; Mary, December 10, 1685.
(III) John (2), son of John (1) Willey, was born at New London, February 24, 1674-75. He and his wife joined the church in Hadlyme, Connecticut, May 18, 1752, when she was baptized and was called sev- enty-two years old. He died there June 19, 1754, according to his gravestone, while the church record says June 20, 1754, aged eighty-two. He received grants of land in 1727 and 1750, when he was called sergeant. He sold land to his son Allen in 1727 and to his son John in 1752, his house lot with house and twelve acres. He married, at East Haddam, in October, 1698, Elizabeth, dangh- ter of John Harvey, of New London. She was born about 1680. Children, born at East Haddam: John, May 24, 1699; Allen, Sep- tember 29, 1700; Elizabeth, December 29, 1701; Mary, December 13, 1703-04; Joseph, mentioned below; Lydia, April 15, 1707; Phebe, January 6, 1709; Mehitabel, Septem- ber 14, 1711; Lucretia, June 7, 1713; Noah, August 28, 1716; Benajah, birth not recorded ; Sarah, baptized at Hadlyme, April 10, 1748,
