trade and for some years carried on a very successful contracting business. lle secured capital enough to start in the produce and commission business and gave up the other line of work. He had headquarters of the wholesale produce business at New Berlin and Edmeston. For a time he shipped only to New York City, and soon gained the con- fidence and good will of all who had business with him. He established his business in New York City in 1869, at 80 and 91 War- ren street. For the first five years he had a partner, but he bought him out and for nearly ten years continued alone. His fine business ability and energy brought him a very large trade, and operations were extended to many places. He soon became a formidable rival of the largest and oldest firms of the kind in the city. Ile became very wealthy through his foresight and work, as he was careful rather than too hasty in advancing his trade. In July, 1885, he admitted his nephew. D. W. Whitmore, son of Hon. Daniel E. Whitmore, of Marathon, into the firm, and the name be- came G. B. Whitmore & Company. Later a younger brother of D. W. Whitmore, D. L. Whitmore, became a partner, but the firm name remained the same. The firm now continues to do an enormous amount of busi- ness in general farm produce, handling more cheese than any other commission house in New York.


Hon. George B. Whitmore is distinctly a self-made man, and has made the most of his opportunities in every way. He became one of the most prominent and wealthy men in Chenango county. For fifteen years he lived in Brooklyn, but later returned to Chenango county, living in Sherburne. In religion he is an Episcopalian, being a warden of the church. He purchased the M. 1 .. Harvery property of two acres on Main street and built a very handsome house there, furnished with good taste. The artistic arrangement of the grounds with fountain, shrubbery and flower beds, brings pleasure to all who see them. He owns much real estate in Sherburne and nearby towns. In politics he is a Republican, and has held many offices. lle has served as president of the village corporation from 1886 to 1891, and for two terms was super- visor of the town, and chairman one of the terms. In 1885 he received a plurality of 1,130 votes for the office of representative of Chenango county to the state assembly. In


the assembly he was a member of the commit- tee on banks, and chairman of the committee of charitable and religious societies. He has been chairman of the county committee and also has held many other offices.

(The Parker Line ).


William Parker, immigrant ancestor, came from England in 1633. perhaps with Thomas Wiggin, in the ship "James," to Dover, New Hampshire. In Hotten's "History of Ameri- can Emigrants," on May 21, 1635, William Parker and Margaret Pritchard, both seven- teen years of age, were passengers on the ship "Matthew" from London to St. Christophers. which was a small island in the West Indies. This William Parker may have been the an- cestor, for in 1635 a Dutch ship brought salt and tobacco from there to Marblehead and there were English passengers aboard the ship. William Parker and his wife may have come then, arriving in Hartford in 1636, at which time he was an original proprietor there.


In 1633 "the Bristol men had sold their in- terest in Piscataqua to the Lords Say and Brooke, George Wyllys, and William Whiting, who continued Thomas Wiggin their agent.' He had a home lot on what is now Trumbull street, in 1639. He moved to Saybrook about 1639, and owned much land there, as well as in Hebron. The land in Hebron he had re- ceived by the will of Joshua, third son of Un- cas. In 1666, in the division of upland in East Hartford, he had thirty-six acres, which he sold, and in 1674 he also sold land which he received in the division on the west side of Hartford. In 1673, after several grants to those who served in the Pequot war, his son William received a grant of one hundred acres, confirming a grant which had "slipt re- cording," so it is probable that he served in the Pequot war. He was prominent in public life, holding several town offices. He was often on important town committees, and was deputy to the general court at the special ses- sion of 1652, and at the May sessions of 1679 and 1681, and the October sessions of 1678- 79-80-81.


He married (first), about 1636, Margery ,who died December 6, 1680. She may have been a ward or relative of William Whit- ing, for he left her ten pounds in his will. He married ( second ), before 1682, Elizabeth Pratt, widow of Lieutenant William Pratt. He clied at Saybrook. December 28, 1686. Chil- dren: 1.

BULEY The Buly, Buley or Bulyea famn- ily appears in the public records in Westchester and Ulster coun- ties, New York, in 1763. John Bulyea, of Phillipsburg, Westchester county, New York, made his will March 18, 1763, bequeathing to wife Elinor and sons Robert and Henry. He must have had a son John also, for Robert Bulyea died in 1766, and his brother Jolin was appointed administrator, November 4, 1766. This John Buley (also spelled Bullyea and Bulyea) was a son-in-law of Samuel and Alice Davenport, of North Castle, Westches- ter county. Samuel Davenport's will, dated February 25, 1773, mentions him, and Alice Davenport in her will, dated March, 1775, mentions daughter Rachel, wife of John Bull- yea. John was the only one of the name in the census of 1790, except Benjamin, men- tioned below. He was living at Mount Pleas- ant, Westchester county, and had in his fam- ily two males over sixteen and two under that age and six females. A search of all the Ul- ster, Westchester and New York probate rec- ords fails to reveal another trace of the family.


(I) Benjamin Buley, doubtless related to the Bulyeas of Westchester county, men- tioned above, settled in Marbletown, Ulster county. He lived to a great age, tradition says one hundred and three years. He was a soldier in the revolution in General Marinus Willett's levies, 1781-82. His name does not appear in the lists of settlers and other rec- ords of Marbletown, though he may have been in Ulster county some years before the war. In 1790 the first federal census shows that he was the only man of the name reported in New York state under the spelling Buly or

Buley. He had one son under sixteen and one female in his family, indicating that he was a young man. In 1803 he was on the Marbletown jury list, and in 1811 was on the tax list of that town. Children: Jacob or Jacobus, was on the tax list of 1811 at Mar- bletown ; Abraham C., mentioned below. Per- haps other children.


(II) Abraham C., son of Benjamin Buley, was born in Marbletown, Ulster county, New York, May 4, 1804, died in Sayre, Pennsyl- vania, March 20, 1888. He was educated in the public schools, and learned the trade of shoemaker. About 1828 he located at Ithaca, Tompkins county, and lived in that county until the spring of 1850, when he removed to the town of Chemung, Chemung county, where he followed his trade for many years. Eventually he removed to Waverly, New York, and for three years made his home with his son Joseph. His last years were spent in the home of his son, Cornelius L. Buley, at Sayre, Pennsylvania. He was bur- ied, however, in Waverly, New York, in the Forest Home cemetery.


He married, April 22, 1832, Hannah Mas- terson, born October 5, 1803, died in Waverly, July 3, 1894. Children : 1. James D., born December 14, 1833, died March 11, 1909. 2. Joseph Myron, mentioned below. 3. Cornelius L., born 1844. died 1911. 4. Cornelia, twin of Cornelius L., died in infancy.
