(1) James Allen, immigrant ancestor. very likely came to Dedham with his unele. Rev. John Allen, about 1637. He was a grandson of Reginald Allen, of Colby, Nor- folk, England. The first mention of him in the records is dated April 6. 1638, when "Jeames Allin accepted to have sixe acres layd out for him in yt corner by Jeffery Myngey yf ther it may be found fitt." Ile received other grants at various times. He

was admitted to the church October 2. 1646, and made a freeman May 26. 1647. In 1648 his estate was valued at two pounds. and his tax was rated at three shillings five pence. In 1649 some of the inhabitants of Dedham made a company in order to form a settlement at Boggestow, upon the Charles river, now known as Medfield, and he was one of the first thirteen proprietors and the fifth to be granted land in the new town. The committee which carried on the affairs of the town at first granted him land. June 19, 1650, when it laid out the thirteen house lots. His lot was on South street, near the present residence of Mr. Rhodes. In 1650 his estate was valued at 139 pounds. He was again granted land in 1653. near that of his son Joseph. He received other grants, and owned tracts on both sides of the river. His will was dated September 23. 1676. He left his ! se. barn, etc., to his son-in-law. Joseph Clark. and as he had given his house on South street to his son Nathaniel, he must have owned two places. He married, in Dedham, March 16, 1638. Ang Guild, who died in Medfield. March 29. 1673. and he died there. September 27. 1676. Children, all born in Dedham, ex- cept the youngest : John. December 4. 1639: Martha. December 11. 1641: Mary, twin with Martha: Sarah. May 4. 1644: James, April 28, 1646: Nathaniel. August 29. 1648: Joseph. mentioned below.


( II) Joseph, son of James Allen, was born in Medfichl. June 24. 1652. He set- tled in the northern part of the town on Castle Hill, known as the Allen place after- wards. He was granted two lots of land in 1673. one between the road leading to "Goodman Morse's" and land owned by his father. below Samuel Wight's land. The other lot was between his father's land and that owned by Samuel Wight. bounded on the east by the highway leading to Natick. He was a cooper by trade, and his house and shop were built before King Philip's war. February 21. 1676, the Indians de- termined to burn the town, and his property


was among the first to receive their atten- tion. They took shavings from the shop. piled them on the kitchen floor, and set then: on fire : but the shavings had been piled on a trap door, which fell into the cellar when burned, and extinguished the flames. V. other damage was done, although all of the other houses in that part of the town were destroyed. September 21. 1676, he re- ceived from his father six acres of upland and one acre of meadow land, and this was probably his share in his father's will, as his name was not on the will, which was date 1 two days later. In 1675 and 1701 his name is on the list of proprietors, and he was made a freeman October 11, 1682. In 1688 he was sealer of weights and measures, and he and his wife were admitted to the first parish in 1607. He married, in Seakonk ( Rehoboth ).

The origin of this surname BARNES has never been definitely de- termined. One assertion is that its remote bearers were of the Saxon race and spelled the name "Bainers." while another traces its origin to the Norse word "Bjorne." meaning a warrior. It is claimed that the English ancestry of the Barnes tam- ily in America has been traced back to the fourteenth century. Three immigrants bearing the name of Thomas Barnes ar- rived in New England from the mother country prior to 1638. One settled in Hing- ham, Massachusetts: another in New Ha- ven, Connecticut, and the third Thomas lo- cated in Hartford. The family about to be mentioned is descended from the last-named immigrant. The muster rolls of the Amer- ican revolution and the war of 1812-15 re- cord the services of several volunteers named Barnes, and they rallied to the sup- port of the federal government in the great civil strife of 1861-65.


(I) Thomas Barnes, one of the first set- tlers of Hartford. Connecticut, served in the Pequot war (1036-37%, and in 1630 re- ceived a grant of six acres of land in Hart- ford as a reward for his services. He also received a grant of fifty acres in Farming- ton. Connecticut, of which town he was one of the first settlers, going there from Hart- ford in 1646, and he shared in all of the subsequent land distributions there until his death, which occurred in 1088. At that time Farmington included within its limits the present towns of Southington, New Britain. Plainfield. Bristol. Burlington and Avon. The Christian name of his first wife. whom he probably married shortly after settling in Farmington, was Mary. She was con- victed of witchcraft and executed in 1658. He married (secondo) Mary Andros for Andrews% of Farmington, born in 1644. daughter of John Andros. She survived him and became the second wife of Jacob Bronson. Children of first union: Sarah. Benjamin and Joseph. Children of second marriage: The mas an I Ebenezer

(II) Ebenezer, son of Thomas and Mary ( Andros ) Barnes, was born in Farming- ton, died in 1256. He settled in the southi- erly part of the town of Bristol, and erected a large tavern on the Plainfield road, which he conducted for many years. He married, April 8, 1699, Deborah, daughter of Samuel and Deborah Orvis. Children: Ebenezer, Thomas, Anna, Jedediah, Gideon. Stephen. Deborah, Abialı, Mary, Esther, William, Abigail, David, Amos, John and Lucy.


(III) Amos, fourteenth child of Ebenezer and Deborah ( Orvis ) Barnes, was born in Bristol, Connecticut. November 30. 1731, died June 6, 1818. As there is a record of his having kept a hotel. it is not improbable that he succeeded his father in carrying on the tavern in Bristol, but information con- cerning him is very meagre. In 1798 he re- moved to Lewis county, New York, where his son Judah had settled the previous year. and he died in Turin, New York. His wife, Elizabeth, died March 14. 1816. Among his children was Judah. see forward.


(IV) Judah, son of Amos Barnes, was born in Bristol, Connecticut. January 20. 1755. died in Turin, New York. February 23, 1821. He was married in his native town to Hepzibah Wood, born January S. 1756, died April 3. 1813. In the spring of 1797 Judah Barnes and his family started from Bristol in a conveyance drawn by oxen. and after a journey. of six weeks arrived at a point near Collinsville. Lewis county, New York. Ile purchased let 28 in what is now Deweyville, town of Turin, and, having cut his way two and one-half miles through an unbroken wilderness to his new possession. he made a clearing. ercetedl a dwelling house. which is still standing. and. assisted by his father. who joined him the following year. he built the first sawmill in that section. In the summer of 1798 quite a colony of set- tlers arrived. and as his was the only house in the new settlement it sheltered besides his own no less than six other families until dwellings could be built for their occupancy. For some time these pioneers subsisted


chiefly upon fish and game provided b; Judah Barnes' son Martin. Judah Barnes was prominently identified with the early history of Turin, serving as judge of the county court for several years, and as a member of the assembly in 1808-09. He was a member of the First Congregational church, which was organized September 19. 1802. by the Rev. John Taylor, of Deer- field. Massachusetts. Children of Judah and Hepzibah ( Wood ) Barnes, all born in Bris- tol, Connecticut, were: I. Elizabeth, born October 21, 1773, died January 3. 1814. 2. Esther, August 12, 1775. died July 20, 1826. 3.

Sophronia, November 19. 1794. died November 25. 1838. 12. Hepzibah. July 3, 1795.


(V) Martin, sixth child of Judah and Hepzibah (Wood ) Barnes, was born in Bristol, Connecticut. January 21. 1785. died in Turin, New York, February 13. 1862. He accompanied his parents to Turin, was reared a pioneer, and when but thirteen years old proved his ability as a hunter. Upon reaching manhood he engaged in farming. but still devoted a considerable por- tion of his time to hunting, and for many vears furnished large quantities of venis :1 to the Albany market. He married. April 3. 1812. Henrietta Platts, a descendant of an early settler in Rowley, Massachusetts; she died August 23. 1824. He married (sec- ond > Esther Clapp. born April 17. 170 ;. clied December 21. 1852. daughter of I.u- ther Clapp and a descendant of Captain Roger Clapp. of Dorchester and Boston. Massachusetts.

He was edu- cated in the Turin public schools, and after the completion of his studies he assisted his . father in carrying on the homestead farm. acquiring a good knowledge of agriculture. After his father's death he assumed the en- tire management of the farm, and has ever -ince carried it on in the interest of his mother, who is its owner. The Barnes form, which has now been in the possession vi the family for more than one hundred years, is desirably located and exceedingly fertile. In 1908 Mr. Barnes purchased the Eggerton farm ( so called), situated in West Turin and comprising one hundred and fity-seven acres. He formerly devoted his energies almost exclusively to market gar- wing, but at the present time is quite ex- 'erively engaged in the dairy business. keeping for that purpose a herd of about f. rty cows.

(IV) Siloam S .. son of Thomas Jenne. was born in Grantham. New Hampshire. July 26. 1809. He attended the public schools there until the family moved to Len- ox. where he continued in the schools. He then taught school several years and then worked as carpenter. millwright. wagon maker and manufacturer of special machin- ery. He assisted Professor Lyman in the construction of a sixteen-foot telescope. He


made a set of special machinery for a book bindery, having special devices of his in- vention, among which was one of the ear- liest machines for cutting out envelopes. These and many other labor-saving devices conceived by him show his versatility in mechanics. He married. November 26, 1829. Amelia R. P. Root, who died in Len- ox. January 27. 1892. Children: Nancy Maria, died in infancy; Mary A., born Au- gust 25. 1833. married. November 24, 1853. Albert Rideout. of Lee. Massachusetts; William K .. mentioned below : Francis, born June 27. 1846, died May 16, 1873.


(V) William K .. son of Siloam S. Jenne. was born January 14. 1837. He was edu- cated in the public schools, and. inheriting a strong predilection for mechanics, entered a machine shop at Lee, Massachusetts, and served an apprenticeship of three years at the trade of machinist. Then he entered the employ of the firm of Plaisted & White- house, of Holyoke, Massachusetts, and was sent to Ilion. New York. to make the fine tools necessary for a contract that the firm had made with the Remington Arms Com- pany of Ilion for certain parts of firearms they were making for the United States government. After the contract was com- pleted Mr. Jenne became a subcontractor for the Remington company. and engaged in manufacturing the Eliot pistol. He soon became known as a mechanic of unusual skill. and demonstrated inventive ability of high order. In the development of the Remington sewing machine, Mr. James wa- from first to last an important factor. In 1873 there was brought to the Remington works by Mr. James Densmore and Mr. G W. N. Yost a typewriter model. one of the earliest. It was a very crude model indeed. Mr. Densmore was president of the Type- writer Company organized for the purpose of perfecting. manufacturing and selling typewriters based upon the model above mentioned. The model. because of its crude- ness and mechanical imperfections. was not a saleable article. so arrangements were

made with E. Remington & Sons for the making of an improved model or models in the hope that the product might be useful and marketable. Mr. J. M. Clough. then superintendent for E. Remington & Sons. brought the crude model to Mr. Jenne's de- partment in the works and they undertook : make such improvements as they might agree upon, resulting in the construction of three models which in appearance were so greatly improved that the representative of the typewriter company believed they would serve the purpose. The models were sent out to be tested in actual work. and it was found that the Ilion mechanics, who had never before thought of typewriters. had yet something to learn. Three more models were made by the same mechanics. and were pronounced satisfactory. whereupon the Typewriter Company entered into a con- fact with E. Remington & Sons for the construction of five hundred machines like the last models. The machines under this contract were the very first typewriting ma- chines placed on the market. The manufac- ture of typewriters has been continued in liion to the present day, and the improve- ments made from time to time have resulted i11 the wonderfully useful and durable Rem- ington Typewriter, known all over the world and is still manufactured in Ilion. Mr. Icame is entitled to take some pride for the portant part he has taken in producing the machine in its present perfection. No ne person has had more to do in making the typewriter a commercial necessity.
