In 1836, after his father died, he re- moved from Castleton to Ludlowville, Tomp- kins county, New York, where he found employment as clerk in the general store of Henry L. Burr & Company. He was admit- ted to the partnership in 1849 and in 1858 he bought out the interests of Henry L. Burr and with James H. Burr formed the firm of Lord & Burr. He withdrew from the firm in 1866 to accept the position of cashier of the First National Bank of Ithaca, New York, and filled this office with ability and fidelity for a period of thirty-five years, and retired after a long and honorable career, December 31, 1901.

John Barr Lang, who has figured
LANG conspicuously in the political life of Ithaca, serving for six times in the capacity of mayor, a tribute to his ex- cellent traits of character, and his talent for performing important official duties, is a de- scendant of a Scotch and French ancestry. The ancestral history and legends of the Langs and MacArthurs are colored with Gaelic romance and highland life, enriched with the wit and religious fervor, the patriot- ism and valor that have furnished themes for scholar, poet, preacher, orator and historian, wherever civilization has become established and Gaelic literature has followed.
(I) Cornelius Lang, father of John Barr Lang, was a native of Paisley, Scotland. where he was reared and educated. He served as a cotton mill superintendent in his native land, from whence he emigrated to this coun- try, locating in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where he pursued his vocation. Later he re- moved to Paterson, New Jersey, and subse- quently to Stockport, near Kinderhook, New York, on the Hudson, and to Great Barring- ton, Massachusetts. He married Ann Mac- Arthur, in Glasgow, Scotland, her native city.
(II) John Barr Lang was born in Stock- port. New York, in December. 1833, and. when three years of age his parents removed to Great Barrington, Massachusetts. He at- tended the "Plains School" in that famous vil- lage, until he was twelve years old, and then began his active career, serving as clerk in a general store there, remaining for five years. He then served as apprentice in a machine shop in Hartford, Connecticut, remaining from 1850 to 1853, when he removed to Phil- mont, Columbia county, New York. In 1854 he returned to Hartford as a machinist in shops owned by Joseph S. Curtis. Mr. Lang again. removed to Philmont in 1859, and while a resident there his mechanical propensities found a field of activity. He constructed of steel a shoe-pegging machine to le run by hand. This was made from a wooden model design by a Methodist clergyman. Although this hand machine was found too slow to meet the demand of the rapidly progressing Yankee trade, it became the basis for the pegging ma- chinery that in a short time effected a decided revolution in the shoe manufacture industry in America.
In 1861. the first year of the civil war. Mr. lang removed to Pittsfield. Massachusetts.
where he took charge of the machinery in a larger factory that made the cloth now so famous in the annals of our country, and for- ever perpetuated in the poetry of our land. the cloth worn by the "boys in blue" of the Union army. Here he remained until the end of the war and the demand for blue cloth- ing had decreased to small proportions. It was while on a visit to Ithaca, with his wife, in March, 1865, that he was induced by her brother, James Patterson, to visit and inspect the machine shops then in operation at that place. This inspection resulted in a partner- ship being formed between Mr. Lang and James Reynolds, the owner of the shops at that time. This partnership was not consum- mated until the latter part of the year, when Mr. Lang removed to Ithaca and took up his permanent residence. This was the beginning of his successful career as a leader in the in- dustrial life of the community. In 1870 the Reynolds & Lang plant was removed to No. 117, 119, 121 East Green street. and is now one of the extensive manufacturing industries of the city.
Upon Mr. Reynold's death in 1891 his wid- ow became owner of his property and carried on his business until she died in 1894, at which time Mr. Lang purchased the Reynolds share in the plant, including the real estate it occupies. In 1902 he admitted to partnership his son-in-law. Ernest D. Button, and the firm is now Lang & Button. Its special output is traction engines of such modern design and stability that they are in demand in and ship- ped as far away as Greece, Mexico and the British possessions. When the Reynolds & Lang partnership was first formed a contract was made with Judge Wells, who owned the village waterworks. A rotary pump was at- fixed by the firm to an artesian well that ex- isted near the southern corner of the present Blood building, at 100 North Tioga street. The water from the well was pumped into the water mains and distributed to the peo- ple of the village who depended on it for a water supply. After two years the pump was removed to the Holliston shops, now the loca- tion of the Driscoll Brothers & Company's planing mills and carpenter shops.
Mr. Lang has been a trustee and treasurer of the First Baptist Church for many years, and has served well and faithfully in this capacity. One of his intimate friends said of him, "John Lang's genuine practical re-
1482
NEW YORK.
ligion has been applied to his business affairs, and has held him from amassing larger wealth. He makes his charges with the Golden Rule. When his silent heart lies on the bier, before the altar of his church, his eulogist will not find it convenient to direct attention to the floral display around the cas- ket. The raiment of the departed soul will be more beautiful than the wilting leaves and fading hues of bud, blossom and foliage."
During Mr. Lang's incumbency of the of- fice of mayor he was noted for his just and impartial administration of the affairs of that office : he favored both parties equally in his appointments of committees, and in many ways demonstrated his fairness in this respect. He recommended the framing of city work contracts so that only Ithaca workmen should perform city labor, thus avoiding the importa- tion of cheap workmen into the city to com- pete against home labor. The city contracts were drawn according to his commendation, and gave great satisfaction to the laboring men of Ithaca. It was during his administra- tion and at his recommendation that the pur- chase of property from the St. John estate was made by the city for the city hall annex. He continued Jared T. Newman in the office of city attorney, and was in close and friendly relations with every member of the city's of- ficial boards and commissions during his term, and at the close of 1897-98 he extended his compliments to them all for their courtesy and co-operation. Among the improvements made by the city under Mayor Lang's ad- ministration were: The grand abutments and brick-paved bridge of Six Mile Creek, for Cayuga street, were built, and three thousand feet of twenty-four inch sewer mains were laid. from Linn .street through Tompkins street and thence to Fall Creek, which re- moved an old cause of complaint by many inhabitants. The finance commission reported in 1898 through its chairman, Professor Rob- ert H. Thurston, that 18,670 square yards of concrete and brick pavements had been con- structed during that year at a cost of $45,- 000 being 50 per cent. more brick paving than any other administration had procured in pro- portion to the sum expended. His foresight and practical knowledge was amply proven in various cases. He vetoed a resolution of the common council to expend $4,000 in open- ing the Ithaca end of the West Shore Boule- vard, but he approved a later resolution to
expend $2,000 for that purpose. The actual cost of the work when completed was $1.950. The opening of the Boulevard was a great source of pleasure to the city, and did much toward developing the section on the west shore of the lake. Another instance of the wisdom of Mr. Lang's advice, but in this case disregarded by the common council to the loss and detriment of the city, was in regard to the old Cayuga street iron bridge. that was removed to Plain street. He urged that they have it so reconstructed that no rods or under- trusses should be left below the roadway to be struck by ice when the frozen creeks were breaking up. His position was not sustained by the aldermen, and in consequence the ice swept the bridge away and ruined it, in 1901, and there are now only stone abutments to show where it once stood.
Mr. Lang is a stockholder and was one of the directors for several years of the Ithaca Conservatory of Music, and did much to aid in securing its success. He is treasurer of the East Lawn Cemetery, and for fourteen years was a member of Cayuga Fire Com- pany, No. I, and still follows its career in the fire department with unabated interest.
In boyhood Mayor Lang had the privilege of an acquaintance with President Van Bu- ren, and to him he made a solemn promise that he would become "a good citizen." This promise he has kept to the very letter, and it has been said of him that he never con- sciously utters a word or performs an act discreditable to his progenitors, to his coun- try or to himself. And he has also done work to elevate the moral and advance the ma- terial conditions of Ithaca.
Mr. Lang married (first) in 1855, Frances Patterson, of Glastonbury. Connecticut : she died in 1897. He married (second) in 1900. Martha, daughter of the late Obadiah Bowne Curran, of Ithaca (see Curran III).
(The Curran Line).
(I) George Curran. immigrant ancestor of this branch of the Curran family, was a na- tive of Drumneria, Armagh county, Ireland. By occupation he was a weaver of linen, with mills at Cork. He with his wife and family left Ireland on account of religious persecu- tion, coming to America in 1794. They lived for a time in Ulster county. New York, then moved to Caroline. Tompkins county, New York. He and his wife are both buried in

the Toby-town cemetery. He married, in Ire- land, Elizabeth Cowan, and they were the parents of the following children, probably not given in order of birth : Thomas and Sarah, born in America : the others, including William, mentioned below, born in Ireland.
(II) William, son of George and Elizabeth (Cowan) Curran, was born in Ireland. He came to America with his parents when he was eight years old. When he grew up he became a carpenter. He married Betsy Bush, in Dutchess county, New York, and their chil- dren were: Obadiah Bowne, see forward ; Isaac, settled in Springfield, Illinois ; Walter, settled in Ithaca : David, settled in Fond-Du- Lac, Wisconsin: George, lived in various places, but died in Ithaca; William. died young ; Martha and Mary, went west ; Eliza- beth, married Joseph Camp; and Cornelia, married Mr. Grimshaw, of Quincy, Illinois.
(III) Obadiah Bowne, son of William and Betsy (Bush ) Curran, was born in Hurley. Ulster county, New York, in September. 1812, died at Ithaca. December 31. 1877. When he was about five years of age his parents re- moved to Ithaca, which was his home the re- mainder of his life. In his youth he clerked for W. A. Woodward, and in 1835 he started the drug store of which he was the proprietor
until his death. When the Ithaca Savings Bank was incorporated in 1868. he became its secretary and treasurer and served as such until his death. Some of his account books are preserved in the archives of Cornell Uni- versity, and are models in bookkeeping and penmanship. He was postmaster during Pres- ident Buchanan's administration, but was a Republican from war times. He was very methodical. persevering and constant in his business habits, with a high sense of honor and an unswerving integrity, and no man among the merchants of Ithaca had a clearer record or a fairer name. His life was an ac- tive and useful one. and the void left by his sudden death was long felt by those who thoroughly knew and appreciated him.
He married Mary Mitchell, and at his death he was survived by three children, two daugh- ters and a son, among the former being Mar- tha, wife of John Barr Lang ( see Lang II).
Henry Silsbee. immigrant an- SILSBEE cestor, was born in England before 1618. and is supposed to have come to this country in company with
Mr. Samuel Sharpe in 1039. The first men- tion of him appears on the records of Salem, Massachusetts, and is as follows: "25 day of the 5th moneth 1639 Henry Sillsby Mr. Sharpes man is receaued an Inhabitant with- in this Jurisdiction, & there is graunted to him halfe an acre of land neere the Cat Cone for a Howse plott."
Savage says that he was of Ipswich in 1647. October 16, 1651. being then of Ipswich, he bought the dwelling house of Thomas Coates, of Lynn, together with six acres of land near Stacy's brook, and upon the same day, some thirty acres of arable and pasture land, ap- parently not far from the home lot. On April 7, 1660, he bought of John Hathorne an old house and three acres bounded west with his own land, and March 16. 1670-71, he bought more land from the town. Part of this es- tate is still cultivated by a descendant. He is described as a "shoemaker" by occupation, and though never very prominent in town af- fairs, he was frequently a witness, overseer or assessor in the wills of his neighbors. Jan- uary 8, 1692, it was voted that Henry Silsbee "should sit in the deacon's seat." He mar- ried (first ) Dorothy who was the mother of all his children. She died Septen- ber 27. 1676, and he married ( second) Novem- ber 18, 1680, Grace Eaton, widow of Jonas Eaton, of Reading. His will was signed March 17. 1698-99, and proved December 16, 1700. Children : Henry: Nathaniel, born about 1651: Mary, married Zachery Marsh : John, died before June 26. 1676: Jonathan, married. January 1, 1673. Bethiah Marsh ; Jonathan. mentioned below : Samuel, died Oc- tober, 1687: Ephraim, died before March. 1729: Hannah. died January 8. 1682: Sarah, married. February 25, 1682, Joseph Collins.
(II) Jonathan, son of Henry Silsbee, in- herited from his father the house and lot which the latter had bought of John Hathorne. and in December 25. 1708. sold the same to- gether with four acres to Ephraim Stasey. The same month he sold more of the family land, and later removed to Windham county. Connecticut, where he was active in 1731 in the formation of the parish of Scotland. In 1740. he was assigned to a front seat in the new meeting house of Scotland parish. He married, January 1. 1673. Bethiah Marsh. a sister of Zachery who married Ephraim's sis- ter Mary. Children: Sarah, born December 5. 1674: Child. February 16. 1676. died the

same day ; Jonathan, mentioned below ; Beth- iah, April 12, 1680, died May 16, 1681 ; Eliza- beth, August 2, 1685; Hannah, October 3. 1687.
(III) Jonathan (2), son of Jonathan (1) Silsbee, was born March 16, 1677-78. He set- tled at Scotland, Connecticut. From him are descended many of the families in central Massachusetts, New York and Pennsylvania. Lydia Silsbee married at Scotland, January 18, 1739, Samuel Palmer ; Henry Silsbee married there Bethia Lasell; Samuel Silsbee married there November 5, 1746, Elizabeth Wood- ward; Mary Silsbee married March 5, 1752, Simon Wood. These were children and grandchildren of Jonathan, who married in the adjacent town of Colchester, Connecticut, April 26, 1733, Abigail Randall. Jonathan Silsbee was seated in the first pew of the Scotland (town of Windham) Church in 1740, and was one of the petitioners for the setting off of the parish of Scotland from Windham.
(IV) Enos, son of Jonathan (2) Silsbee, ac- cording to the weight of evidence, settled first in Westchester county, New York, and mar- ried there, in 1761, Deborah Bennet. Some of the family went from Windham to Stam- ford, Fairfield county, Connecticut, and to the adjoining county, Westchester, New York. Abijah Silsbee was in Stamford in 1792. Enos went northward and located in Orange coun- ty. Ile was a soldier in the revolution in the Fourth Orange County Regiment, and ac- cording to the first federal census he had in his family at that time two males over sixteen and five females.
(V) Enos (2), son of Enos ( I ) Silsbee, was born probably in Westchester county, New York, about 1765.
He settled, at some time before 1790, in Northumberland county, Pennsylvania, and according to the federal census had in his fam- ily besides himself two males under sixteen and three females, probably three or four young children, under five. The females may have included sisters. He probably lost some of these children as but one son, born as early as 1790, is known to have survived. He mar- ried, in 1786, - Children : John, 1790: James, mentioned below ; Deborah, 1795 ( doubtless named for her grandmother ). They lived at Wayne and Pembroke, Pennsylvania.
