277
VISSCHER.
COLONEL VISSCHER is justly entitled to be called the hero of the family. Several accounts have been given of his courage, and remarkable escape from death when the family mansion near Caughnawaga was attacked by the Torys and Indians in 1750, under the command of his bitter enemy, Sir John Johnson, the fullest account of which and probably the earliest will be found in "Sims' Border Wars of New York." The following extracts are taken from Sims' and from Sanders' early history of Schenectady families, a highly interesting work, lately published :
COLONEL VISSCHER was married and resided a short distance from the paternal mansion, the other brothers John and Har- mon, with their sisters Geertruy and Margaret, were unmarried and resided with their mother at the homestead. The VISSCHER brothers were uncompromising patriots and exceedingly obnox- ious to their Tory neighbors, headed by Sir John Johnson. Apprehending invasion, and a few days before Sir John John- son's terrible descent on the settlement, COLONEL VISSCHER sent by bateau his young wife and infant family to Schenectady for safety, and took up his residence at the homestead. On Sunday night, the 21st of May, 1780, Sir John Johnson, at the head of about 500 men, British, Indians and Tories, entered the Johnstown settlements from Canada by the expected northern route. Dividing his forces Colonel Johnson sent part of them, mostly Indians and Tories, to Tribes Hill under the direction of Henry and William Bowen, two brothers who had formerly lived with the Johnsons in Canada. After sack- ing and burning the house of Barney Hansen, the enemy pro- ceeded to the house of COLONEL VISSCHER and finding it un- occupied they plundered it and setting it on fire hastened onward to the VISSCHER mansion, where they arrived just at day light. There were in the house COLONEL VISSCHER, his mother, two brothers and two sisters, mentioned above. The attack was commenced by twenty of the enemy, who arrived first on the ground, who were soon followed by the main body of 300. The brothers defended the house for some time after the enemy gained an entrance below, and while fighting on the stairs the sisters escaped from the cellar kitchen and fled to the
278

wood not far distant. Their mother, about to follow her daughters, was stricken down by a blow on the head from the butt of a musket and was left without being scalped. The brothers still continued to fight until their ammunition gave out and the house was no longer tenable, and as the enemy ascended the stairs COLONEL VISSCHER discharged his pistol and throwing it behind him in token of submission, called for quarter. An Indian running up struck him a blow upon the head with a tomahawk which brought him to the floor. He fell upon his face and the Indian took the crown scalp from his head, which entitled him to a reward, then giving him a gash in the back of his neck turned him over and attempted to cut his throat, which was only prevented by his cravat, the knife penetrating just through the skin. His brother, Captain John, as the enemy approached retreated to a corner of the room that he might there repel his assailants. An Indian, seeing him armed with a sword, hurled a tomahawk at his head which brought him down. He was killed outright, scalped and left where he fell. Harmon jumping from a back window attempted to escape, but in the act of leaping a garden fence a few rods off he was shot and killed and scalped. The house was then plundered and set on fire.
After the enemy had left, COLONEL VISSCHER's consciousness returned, and he discovered that his brother John was dead and the house on fire. Descending the stairs he found his mother near the door faint from the blow. dealt upon her head and too weak to render him any assistance. With no little effort the Colonel succeeded in removing the body of his brother from the burning house, and then assisted his mother - who was seated in a chair the bottom of which had already caught fire-to a place of safety. (This chair is preserved as a sacred relic by the De Graff family at the Visscher house.) And having carried out a bed lay down upon it, at a little distance from the house, in a state of exhaustion, where he was dis- covered by Black Tom, a slave belonging to Adam Ziely. Tom brought him water from the brook which revived him, and under the direction of the Colonel harnessed a span of horses to a wagon and took him with his mother and sisters,

who came out of the woods on hearing the noise of the wagon, and the bodies of his murdered brothers, to the river at David Putnam's. The family was taken across the river in a boat to Ephraim Wemp's, and the Colonel's friend, seeing that he re- quired proper medical aid, sent him forward in a canoe to Schenectady.
COLONEL VISSCHER bore through life the broad scar left on his head by the scalping-knife, and on all public occasions this was covered by a silver plate made for the purpose. But pre- vious to this he was a notable hero in the battle of Oriskany, which occurred August 6, 1777. In June, 1782, when Wash- ington made a tour through this portion of the country, an elegant entertainment was given him in Schenectady, on which occasion he placed COLONEL VISSCHER at his right hand in honor of his distinguished services.
He was appointed Brigadier-General by Governor George Clinton February 6, 1787, but declining to accept this office he was on the 27th of March following appointed first Judge of the Court of Common Pleas of Montgomery county, which office he filled with ability and honor till January 24, 1801. He was also a member of the Legislature of 1782.
