(VIII) General William R. Judson, son of Silas Burton Judson, was born in the town of Butternuts, Otsego county, New York, Octo- ber 25, 1810, and died February 6, 1880. He spent his boyhood at home on his father's farm. At the age of sixteen he was appren- ticed for a term of three years with Major J. J. Gooley to learn the saddlery and harness trade. He completed his apprenticeship and worked one year as a journeyman, and then, in partnership with W. Merwin, bought out hvis employer and continued the business until 1841, when he sold his interests to William Hoffman Jr. In 1841 he started in the lum- ber business and continued for six years, after- ward engaging in the real estate business in Elmira and in various western states, residing in the meantime in Elmira. From 1856 to 1866 he made twenty-one trips from Elmira to Kansas, where he was in much property. At that time traveling was both slow and diffi- cult and to some extent dangerous.
General Judson was interested in public affairs and was honored with many offices of trust and responsibility. He was marshal in charge of the census of 1840 in Chemung county, which then had a population of 20.731. He was appointed under-sheriff of the county in 1841, and elected sheriff in 1843 for three years. He was appointed marshal under the bankruptcy law of 1847. In 1866 he was appointed an internal revenue assessor for the Twenty-seventh congressional district, and in 1868 he was presidential elector for this district.
General Judson had a notable military rec- ord, covering a period of thirty years. In 1834 he volunteered in the light infantry com- pany, known as the Elmira Guards, command- ed at that time by Captain Wheeler, and was
associated in this company with many of the best and most honored citizens of Elmira. He was commissioned captain April 30. 1834, of the Seventy-ninth Regiment of Infantry, State of New York; lieutenant-colonel, June 20, 1835, and colonel, June 16, 1842, by Governor Seward. He volunteered for the Mexican war, and on July 21, 1846, was commissioned captain in the Sixth Regiment, by Governor Silas Wright: R. E. Temple was colonel and adjutant general. When the civil war broke out and the secession sentiment on the bor- ders of Kansas was dominant. he offered his service to the federal government, and was commissioned major of the Frontier Battalion, Missouri Volunteers, August 5, 1861, and col- onel of the Sixth Kansas Volunteer Cavalry. September 10, 1861. For gallant and meri- torious service, he was breveted brigadier- general, March 13, 1865. During his long and arduous military career, General Judson was wounded but once ; this was during an engagement at Fort Smith, Arkansas.
He married (first ), August 28, 1833, Eliza- beth, who died March 1, 1859. daughter of Major Charles Orwan, one of the early set- tlers of Elmira. He married ( second), June 27, 1861, Mrs. Aurora H. Danforth, who died April 9, 1870, daughter of Thomas Hulett, of Wallingford, Rutland county, Vermont. The Hulett family was prominent in Vermont. It is of English origin, the emigrant ancestors having come to America about 1620 to escape the religious persecutions to which they were subjected in England. Hon. Charles and Judge Guy Hulett were members of the same family. General Judson married (third) Sarah K. Hart, born July 7, 1815, died March 24. 1887. Children by first marriage: I. Julia, born December 15, 1834, died July 22. 1879; married George A. Reynolds. 2. Clen1- entina, born December 25. 1836. died April 18, 1866; married E. S. Lowman. 3.

Thomas Hulett, see forward.
(IX) Thomas Hulett, only child of General William R. and Aurora (Hulett) (Danforth) Judson, was born at Horseheads. New York. June 19, 1862. He attended the public schools of Elmira and various private schools, includ- ing the well-known McDougall private school. Early in life he engaged in business as one of
1258

the owners of the Doane & Jones Lumber Company. This business was established many years ago at Southport, New York, by Doane & Jones, afterward removed to Elmira, and has grown to large proportions and been pro- portionately profitable. The present officers of the company are: George Doane, presi- clent : Thomas Hulett Judson, vice-president : Charles F. Bullard, treasurer. Much of the success of the concern is due to the enterprise and sound judgment of Mr. Judson. In politi- cal affairs he is a Democrat. but has never sought or held public office. He and his fam- ily are members of the Park Congregational Church.
Alr. Judson married, February 28, 1893, Fanny B., daughter of William E. and Frances ( Bonham ) Tuttle, of Horseheads, New York. Children, born at Elmira: Edgar Tuttle, De- cember 8, 1894: William Russell, September 28, 1896: Isabelle Tuttle, September 26, 1898; Thomas Hulett. December 26, 1901; Frances B .. December 25. 1903.
(The Hulett Line).
In the early records Hulet. Hulett. Howlett and Hewlett are used interchangeably. The first of the name in this country were Mat- thew and Lewis Hulett. Lewis Hulett settled in Charlestown, Massachusetts, of which he was one of the proprietors, in 1636. He was one of the first settlers of Salisbury, Massa- chusetts, and was a proprietor there in 1640. What became of him is not known: he may have returned to England, perhaps he was lost at sea.

Thomas Howlett left children : Samuel, Sarah Cum- mings, Mary Perley. John, Thomas, William. A Matthew Hewlett came in the ship "Hercu- les" in April. 1634, but we find nothing to show that he lived in this country.
(I) Michael Hulett, who may have been a descendant of the Ipswich family, settled in Killingly. Windham county, Connecticut. be- fore 1708, when he purchased Parkhurst's right in that town. In 1728 land was laid out to him in that town, and he was one of the proprietors in 1730. Children: Josiah, was of age probably in April, 1735, when he signed a petition at Killingly : David, baptized in Kil- lingly church, June 12, 1715: Michael. bap-

John Hewlett was head of a family in Rutland; Nehemiah, of Sangate township, Bennington county, and Joseph of Chester. Windsor coun- ty. The spelling Howlett and Hewlett is used interchangeably in the Vermont records, and Daniel. John and William Hulett were sol- diers in the revolution. In 1790 the Huletts in Connecticut having families were Alline, David, Mehitable, Nehemiah and Oliver, all of Killingly.
(III) Hulett, son of Nehemiah ( ? ) Hulett, and a direct descendant, grandson or great-grandson of Michael Hulett. mentioned above, settled in Wallingford. Rutland county.

He was edu- cated there in the public schools, and at the age of twenty-one settled in the town of Vet- eran, Chemung county, New York. His bro- ther. Dr. Guy Hulett, who was afterwards as- sociate judge of Chemung county, practiced medicine in that town, and in partnership the brothers owned one hundred and two acres of land and conducted a farm together for six vears. The land was then divided, and Mr. Hulett added to the acreage by purchase and

erected more buildings. From time to time he bought more land and increased the size of his farm. He spent many years of active life in this town. He was a prosperous farm- er, a useful citizen, active, enterprising and industrious. In 1844 he removed to Elmira. New York, where he resided until the time of his death. In the same year he was elected justice of the peace, and held that office from the following January until the year 1862. In the great fire at Horseheads in 1862 his dlocket for the entire period of his magistracy was destroyed. In politics he was always an unswerving and influential Democrat from the time he cast his first vote for Andrew Jackson for president. He gave to the princi- ples and candidates of his party his earnest and hearty support, and for many years was one of the foremost men of the Democratic party in this section : buit during the civil war he was a staunch supporter of the Union, and served on the war committee of the dis- trict with Charles Cook, General .Alexander S. Dixon, Dr. Beadle, and other prominent citi- zens of both parties. In 1860, Mr. Hulett represented Chemung county in the Demo- cratic convention at Charleston, South Caro- lina.

The surname Lothrop or La-
LATHROP throp is derived from the parish Lowthorpe, a small place in the wapentake of Dickering, East Rid- ing of County York, England, with only about a hundred and fifty inhabitants. Walter de I owthorpe was elected high sheriff of York- shire in 1216, and the name has been common in Yorkshire from that time. Robert and Richard Lowthorpe lived at Whepsted, Thin- goe Ilundred, Suffolk, in 1287, and a promi- nent family of the name lived in Staffordshire before 1560. Arms: Sable an eagle dis- played argent. Crest : A cornish chough
proper.
(1) John Lathrop, or Lowthroppe, as the name used to be spelled, is the first of the ancient family in England to whom the .\mer- ican line can be definitely traced. Early in the sixteenth century he was living in Sheri- burton and in various other parts of the coun- ty, and in the thirty-seventh year of Ilenry VIII., 1545, his name is on a subsidy roll, assessed twice as much as any other inhabi- tant of the parish. He left a son Robert, men- tioned below, and three daughters whose fam- ilies are named in their brother's will, al- though their names are unknown.
(II ) Robert Lathrop, son of John Low- throppe, succeeded to his father's estates at Cherry Burton, and made considerable addi- tions to them during his life. He died in 1558 and his will, dated July 16, 1558, at North Burton (Sheriburton), was proved at York. November 20, 1558. He was a Roman Catholic, and left bequests to the church, to friends and relatives, and to wife and chil- dren.

(IV) Rev. John (2) Lathrop, son of Thom- as Lathrop, was born at Etton, Yorkshire, England, and baptized there December 20, 1584. He was educated in Queen's College, Cambridge, receiving the degree of B. A. in 1601, and taking his master's degree in 1609. He became curate of the parish church in Egelton in the Lower Half Hundred of Cale- hill, Lathe of Soray, County Kent, as early as 1614. probably in 1611, and as late as 1619. When he could no longer subscribe to the creed of that church, he joined the Puritans in 1623, and in 1624 was called to succeed Rev. Henry Jacob, minister of the First In- dependent Church of London, where the meet- ings were secret on account of being illegal. The church was discovered by a spy named Tomlinson, and forty-two prisoners were taken, eighteen being allowed to escape, April 22. 1632, and the Puritan prisoners were put in the old Clink prison in Newgate and in the Gatehouse until the spring of 1634, when they were released on bail, except Mr. Lathrop. He was allowed to leave it only to be with his wife the last hours of her life, and then was taken back to prison. His children ap- pealed to the Bishop at Lambeth for their father, and he succeeded in procuring his re- lease. He came to Boston on the ship "Grif- fin" with some of his men, and arrived Sep- tember 18, 1634, and settled in Scituate, where nine pioneers had already located. He was chosen pastor, January 19, 1634. He married ( second) Anna , and rented a farm near the First Herring Brook, and had shares
in the salt marshes. After some disagreement in the church he removed to Barnstable, on Cape Cod, October 11, 1639, where he was pastor of the church for fourteen years, and was greatly beloved. Ile stood foremost among the Puritans, a Congregational of the Unitarian denomination, as we now class them. He died at Barnstable, November 8. 1653, and his will, dated August 10, was proved De- cember 8, 1653, bequeathing to son Thomas, John. a son in England, Benjamin, and daugh- ters Jane and Barbara, and to the remainder of lis and his wife's children. Children by first wife: Jane, baptized at Egerton, Eng- land, September 29, 1614; Anne, baptized at Egerton, May 12, 1616; John, baptized Feb- ruary 22, 1617-18: Barbara, baptized October 31, 1619; Thomas, born in England; Samuel, born in England; Joseph, mentioned below ; Benjamin, born in England.

(V) Joseph, son of Rev. Jolin (2) Lathrop, was born in England, probably Lambeth, Lon- don, in 1624, and came to America, very likely with his father, in 1634. The first record found of him is his marriage, made on the register of the Barnstable church by his father, December II, 1650. He married Mary An- sell. He was deputy to the general court from Barnstable for fifteen years, and was a selectman for twenty-one years. When the county was reorganized he was appointed the register of the probate court and recorded the first deed of the county, 1666. In 1653 he was appointed to keep the ordinary. He was made freeman, June 8, 1655, and in 1664 he was acting constable, and in 1667 a receiver of excise. He had the titles of lieutenant and captain, which shows that he was in military service. In 1676 he was a prominent member of the council of war, and he was also com- missioned to hold select courts in 1679 in Barnstable. He was among the agents for the settlement of Sippecan, and in September. 1689, he is spoken of in skirmishes with the Eastern Indians, and the notice of his service shows that he was a prominent man. His will was dated October 9. 1700, and was proved April 9, 1702, and in it he mentions
