She describes Major Adam Hoops as of medium height, rather stoutly built, and also of dark complexion. He was a bachelor, and by the women was considered rough and disagreeable in his dress and manners. He was known by them as the " woman-hater." In his travels on horseback he always carried in his portmanteau two blankets; these were invariably spread upon his bed, and between them would he sleep. The women asserted that he did this be- cause he would not sleep in sheets where, perhaps, a woman had slept.

When she first commenced housekeeping on the Burt place, in 1812, their nearest neighbor on the north, or Rushford road, was Col. Samuel Morgan, who was four miles distant. On the west, or down the valley, it was seven miles to Seth Humphrey's, and eight miles to Elisha Strong's, their nearest neighbor on the east side. The site of Cuba village was a wild, almost impassable, swamp. Many times had her hus- band gone with his teams to help emigrants through that swamp.

Dansville was their nearest point from which flour and

other necessaries could be obtained ; occasionally she would buy flour from emigrants at one shilling per pound. At that time not a bridge was to be seen between Angelica and Olean. The wolves and bears were very annoying, and many times came around the house, seeking the sheep and pigs. They would frighten them away with firebrands. The Indians were friendly. At one time she purchased eight saddles of venison from as many Indians for a few flints, some lead, and a little whisky.

About a year after they were married, Mr. Hicks started out on horseback and journeyed to the Genesee River, near where Judge Church lived, and bought two bags of corn of the Indians. It was ground by them in a little hand-mill. On his return, and when within about a mile of his house, he was surrounded by a pack of wolves that had been gathering and hanging on his track for some distance. Darkness was upon him, and his heavily-burdened horse had come to a stand-still after getting among some brush and logs, from which it seemed he was unable to extricate himself. Becoming satisfied that the wolves meant busi- ness and were after him, Mr. Hicks leaped from his saddle, abandoned his horse and grist, and started at his best pace for home. He reached it in safety, but lost his shoes. These were recovered in the morning, as well as his horse and grist.

At the remarkable age of eighty-seven years, Mrs. Hicks still resides in the town which has been her uninterrupted place of residence for a period of sixty-eight years. Her general health is good ; her powers of mind are scarcely impaired ; and she seems gratified by the proud distinction of being one of the oldest living residents of Cattaraugus County, the daughter of a Continental captain, and of being connected by blood and by marriage with some of the proudest and most distinguished families of our State.

Peter Putnam, who claimed to have been a lineal de- scendant of Gen. Putnam, of Revolutionary fame, came from the Delaware River country, and settled in Almond, Allegany Co., N. Y., in 1802. His marriage was the first in that township. In 1810 he sold out his improvements, invested his money in a raft, and, leaving his wife at Olean, proceeded down the Allegany and Ohio Rivers to Cincin- nati. Having sold his lumber, he bought a wagon and span of horses in Cincinnati, and drove back to Olean. Jan. 1, 1811, he arrived on lot 42, township 3, range 3,- the farm now. owned by Hollis Scott,-and immediately began cutting logs for a house. When he had the requisite number prepared, the Indians, who were encamped in con- siderable numbers near by, assisted him to build it. He built the first framed barn in town in 1816. His son, John Putnam, who was born Aug. 10, 1811, and is believed to have been the first male child born in Hinsdale, still resides here.

In 1812, Israel Curtis and his son-in-law, Harvey Parker, came in from Cayuga Co., N. Y., and settled upon lot 3, section 4, township 2, range 4. A few years later, Mr. Curtis purchased other lots, situated in the central part of the town, and in 1820 was the owner of about 1000 acres. He was the first justice of the peace within the present limits of Hinsdale, the first supervisor, and, in 1817, was appointed the first sheriff of Cattaraugus County ;

he was also an early innkeeper at the stand first opened by Elihu Murray, Jr. He is described as having been a gen- tleman of large proportions, commanding presence, educated, and the possessor of abilities of a high order. He removed to the far West in 1826.

Joshua Weeks, from Oxford, Chenango Co., N. Y., also settled here in 1812. He located upon lot 3, section 3, township 2, range 4.

Among the arrivals in 1813 was Ezra Thornton, from Cayuga Co., N. Y., who settled upon section 3, lot 1, town- ship 2, range 4; and Lewis Wood and Emory Yates, brothers-in-law, who came fromn Gainesville, N. Y. Wood settled upon lot 41 and Yates upon lot 33, both in town- ship 3, range 3. They erected the first saw-mill in 1814. This mill was situated upon Oil Creek, lot 11, township 3, range 3; and in this mill-yet unfinished-Emory Yates, Jr., was born in November, 1814. Yates, Sr., was a native of Vermont, and served in the army at Black Rock during the year 1812. Wheelock Wood, a brother of Lewis, came in soon after, and settled upon the same lot upon which Yates was located.

Capt. Thornton Wasson, a soldier of 1812, accompanied by his sons, Thomas T., Elihu M., and Thornton, Jr., came from Guilford, Chenango Co., N. Y., in 1819, and re- mained one year in Bath, Steuben Co. In 1820 he came on to Olean ; thence he proceeded up the Olean and Oil Creek Valleys to lot 11, third township. third range, where he settled. From that time to the present the name of Wasson has become a familiar one in Hinsdale, and nu- merous representatives of his family have been intimately associated in all enterprises of a social, political, or business nature which had for an object the advancement and gen- eral good of their townsmen.

The year 1820 also found Alexander Campbell upon lot 17, and Jacob Chamberlin upon lot 18, both in the third township, and third range. Lambert Fay, on section 3 of the fourth range. Aaron Houghton, from New Hamp- shire, on the same section as Fay. William Hungerford, from Bainbridge, Chenango Co., N. Y., on lot 18, third township, third range, and Robert Hinds, from Bloomfield, Ontario Co., N. Y., on lot 1, section 4, township 2, range 4. Mr. Hinds was an early innkeeper, and the first town clerk. The town records prove conclusively that no sub- sequent clerk has ever been his equal in neatness, accuracy, and beauty of penmanship.

Henry Conrad came from Easton, Pa., and in 1805 con- tracted for land in Franklinville. He became a resident soon after, and in 1808 erected the first saw-mill, and the following year the first grist-mill in Franklinville. These mills were situated at Cadiz, on the Ischua Creek. In 1821 he became a resident of Hinsdale, and settled upon lot 48, second township, third range,-the site of Hinsdale village. He also owned the greater portion of lot 41, township 3, range 3, and of lot 9, section 4, township 2, in the fourth range. He built the first house on the village site, and opened a tavern soon after. About 1824 he built a saw-mill on Ischua Creek, and in 1830 a grist-mill. These mills were located near the present grist-mill. Mr. Conrad was of German parentage, and may be considered as having been the patroon of Hinsdale, or, more particularly, of those

settlers who came in from New Jersey and Pennsylvania, from 1823 to 1830, and settled upon Dutch Hill and its vicinity. He was generous to a fault, and poor families who were destitute of flour and meal, and had no means to buy, were never refused when they applied for credit at Conrad's mill.

Other settlers at about this period were Tunis D. Bush on lot 12, Moses W. Butterfield on lot 10, Samuel S. Grimes on lot 25, David D. Howe on lot 18,-all in the third town- ship, third range,-while William Smith was on lot 8, sec- tion 4, and Emery Wood on the village-site, both being in township 2, range 4. Howe is remembered as the man who built the State road from Hinsdale to Angelica in 1817, and is described by Mrs. Hicks as having been a tall, handsome, dark-complexioned man, with ruddy cheeks, and eyes as black as night. He had borrowed some money of one Church, of Allegany County, to assist him in some of his enterprises. In some manner he became embarrassed, and when payment was demanded by his "Shylock," Howe was unable to meet the demand. . Church then began sell- ing off Howe's stock, crops, etc.,-even the vegetables growing in his garden. This exasperated Howe to such a degree that he seized his rifle, mounted his horse, and rode off towards Allegany County, singing "Poor old Job went up through persecution," etc. Church was shot that night. Howe was convicted, and hung at Angelica in 1824.

Emery Wood* was the brother of Lewis, Wheelock, and Manning Wood. Before his settlement in Hinsdale he had taken an active part in the war of 1812-14. At the age of fifteen years he had enlisted as a fifer, and in September, 1812, marched from Gainesville, N. Y., to Lewiston. At . the expiration of his term (three months) he returned home. In the summer of 1813 he again took the field (as a sub- stitute), and in July of that year was taken prisoner at Black Rock ; from thence he was sent to Halifax, and detained there as a prisoner of war until June, 1814, when he was released. Returning to his home in Gainesville, he again, in September, 1814, joined the New York volunteers,-that were then organizing on the Holland Purchase for the relief of Fort Erie,-marched with them to the front, and while engaged in the battle of Sept. 17, 1814, was captured by the "red-coats" the second time, and held a prisoner until the close of the war. Col. Wood was a prominent man during the carly days in Hinsdale. The fact of his being the first merchant and first postmaster in 1825, and at about the same time holding the offices of supervisor, town clerk, justice of the peace, and the colonelcy of the 226th Regiment of Infantry, gave a prominence and celebrity to his name that was wide-spread.

In 1823 we find Levi Beebe on lot 6, township 2, range 4; James and William Bennett on lot 4, township 3, range 3; Peter Frantz, another soldier of 1812, and a constable for many years, was on lot 25, Dutch Hill; John R. Grimes on lot 10, township 3, range 3; Nicholas Haselton, lot 18, township 3, range 3; Sherman Johnson, lot 10, township 2, range +; Bela and William May, on lot 16, township 3, range 4; Reuben Scott, on section 3, township 2, range 4; Elisha Terry, on lot 15, township 3, range 4; and Hiram

Thrall, on section 4, township 2, range 4. Among the settlers of 1825 were Jonathan E. Allen and Enoch B. Andrews, on lot 16, township 3, range 4; Elisha Foot, Moses Fay, a Revolutionary hero, Moses Fay, Jr., in town- ship 2, range 4; William Hawley, from Cortland Co., N. Y., on lot 15, township 3, range 4; Ebenezer Hyde, lot 18, Oil Creek ; Henry and John Moyer, lot 24, township 3, range 4; and Cyrus Pierce, section 4, township 2, range 4.

The settlers of 1825 were Daniel Chandler, Jabez A. Beebe, Eliasaph Bouton, Chauncey A. Jones, Levi Kent, Daniel K. Lewis, Peter Miller, Eli Martin, Lewis P. Met- calf, Jacob Melegar, Ebenezer Preston, David Parker, John S. Peterson, Jacob Pipher, Peter Ramsey, Charles Stewart, Abram Shafer, Samuel Wardel, Heber Weatherby, Chris- topher Whiting, and Lyman Whiting. Horace W. Smith, a brother of Capt. William Smith, came in from Vermont in 1826.

Previous to 1830 the following-named settlers were residents here: Lewis Conklin, Archibald Case, Joel Car- penter, Samuel Conrad, William H. Bouton, Jacob Boree, Lewis Bouton, Charles Barnum, Gardner Bullard, Elias Bugby, Jacob Bowers, John A. Bennett, John and William Deal, Nelson Falkner, Isaac Goodrich, Daniel Grimes, Hor- ace Guild, Isaac Graham ( Henry Gross was here in 1820, but owned no land until 1828), Orrin Hull, Alpha Hull, Joshua Hungerford, Elijah Huestis, William Halley, Chris- topher Keller, Joseph Keller, Peter Kamery, Thos. Lock- wood, Jacob Linderman, Stephen Losie, Jacob Luderwick, Denton Mott, Jacob and Isaac Massicker, Simeon McLaf- ferty, George McKulty, Aaron Osmond, John Osterstuck, Thomas Parker, Samuel Pipher, Ford Parish, William Queer, Peter Swarts, John Snyder, Elijah Sweeton, Enoch Sargent, Eber Shores, John Swarts, Samuel Shaver, Joseph Smith, Luther Scott, Stephen Sherlock, Henry Sherlock, Elam Seward, Sheldon Stoddard, Aaron Wheeler, William Vinton, William Wesler, Seymour Wilcox, Timothy Webb, Josiah Washburn, and Josiah Young.

Hollis Scott came from Westmoreland, Cheshire Co., N. H., and in 1820 settled in Friendship, Allegany Co., N. Y. He removed to Cuba in 1829, and to Hinsdale in 1830. Buying out Emery Wood, he became the second merchant in the town, and continued in the mercantile business at Hinsdale and Scott's Corners for a period of twenty-five years. Mr. Scott represented Cattaraugus County in the State Legislature in 1839.

William Vinton was from Massachusetts, and an early tavern-keeper in the village of Hinsdale.

Alexander Storrs, from Worcester, Otsego Co., N. Y., became a resident in 1831. Prior to this time, he had re- sided four years in Franklinville. Mr. Storrs has served as justice of the peace for thirty years, and in 1855 repre- sented Cattaraugus County in the State Legislature. His eldest son, Emnery A. Storrs, who was educated in Ilinsdalc, and now resides in Chicago, Ill., is one of the leading law- yers in the Northwest.

Among others who have become residents in later years, yet have been prominently identified with the public inter- ests of their county and State, there should be mentioned Hon. Alonzo Hawley, who represented the county in the State Legislature during the sessions of 1841 and 1843,

was a member of the State Constitutional Convention of 1816, and is the present (1878) county treasurer of Catta- raugus County.

Also Hon. Nelson I. Norton, who represented his county in the Legislature during the session of 1861, and was a member of the United States House of Representatives in 1875. Mr. Norton's father was one of the first settlers in Franklinville, also of Great Valley.

Lewis Wood built the first framed house, where Jason Lewis now resides, in 1816. Peter Pottman built the first framed barn, at about the same time. Gardner Bullard built the wool-carding, fulling, and cloth-dressing works in 1829. His factory was situated near the present grist-mill. The first framed school-house was built at Scott's Corners, about 1818. Miss Loranda Murray taught the first school, in 1810, of which we have any knowledge. The first phy- sician to attend the pioneers was Dr. Hyde, from Friend- ship, Allegany Co. Dr. James Trowbridge is believed to have been the first resident physician. Emery Wood was the first merchant and first postmaster, about 1825. Sey- mour Bouton, a young boy, carried the first mail from Olean to Angelica; Hugh Magee and brothers were the contractors. Mail was received semi-weekly. The rates of postage were as follows : under 80 miles, 10 cents; over 80 miles, 18 cents ; and over 400 miles, 25 cents. Moses Van Campen and Jedediah Strong surveyed the road from Olean to Angelica, in 1815. The marriage of Jedediah Strong to the widow of William Shepard, about 1811, was the first of which there is any record. The mill-irons used by Lewis Wood and Emery Yates in the construction of the first saw-mill, 1814, were brought by them on their backs from Bellefonte, Pa.

CIVIL HISTORY.

By an act of the Legislature of the State of New York, passed April 14, 1820, Hinsdale was formed from Olean. In that act it was provided that "all that part of the town of Olean lying north of an east and west line through the centre of the second townships, in the third and fourth ranges of townships, shall be known and distinguished as a separate town, by the name of Hinsdale; and the first town-meeting shall be held on the first Tuesday of March next, at such place as the justices of the peace of the present town of Olean shall designate by a written notice, to be put up at four of the most public places in said town, at least ten days previous to the said first Tuesday of March."

The name Hinsdale was given to it by the Hon. Elial T. Foot, of Jamestown, Chautauqua Co., who was then in the Assembly, and a member of the standing committee on the erection of towns and counties. Being called on to provide a name without delay, he gave this,-from Hins- dale, N. H., his mother's birthplace. At its formation it contained a population of 347 inhabitants. The present town Ischua, as Rice, was taken off Feb. 7, 1846.

" At the first town-meeting in and for the town of Hins- dale, Cattaraugus Co., N. Y., held on the first Tuesday of March, A.D. 1821, at the house of Noyes Miner, the follow- ing officers were elected, to wit :"

Supervisor, Israel Curtis; Town Clerk, Robert Hinds ; Assessors, Thornton Wasson, Sands Bouton, Jedediah

Strong; Collector, Henry Gross; Overseers of the Poor, Jedediah Strong, Lewis Wood; Commissioners of Highways, Charles Price, Harvey Parker, Emery Yates; Constables, Henry Gross, Lambert Fay, Simeon Hicks; Commissioners of Common Schools, Lewis Wood, Alexander Campbell, Israel Curtis ; Inspectors of Common Schools, Sands Bou- ton, Robert Hinds; Poundmaster, Lewis Wood ; Over- seers of Highways and Fence-Viewers, Robert Hinds, William Hungerford, Simeon Hicks, Peter Pottman, Israel Curtis, Jonathan Davis, Henry Gross.

It was further voted, " that the supervisor be authorized to raise money to build a pound in Hinsdale. That the place designated for said pound is on the northwest bank of Oil Creek, near the Oil Creek Bridge, where now stands a log shingle shanty. That the supervisor, assessors, and poundmaster be a committee to devise a plan for building a pound, and superintend the construction of the same; and that the poundmaster shall let the building of the same at public vendue to the lowest bidder, public notice thereof being given for six days previous to said vendue by posting notices in the public places.

"That the town pay a bounty on wolf-scalps of $5, and that the same bounty be paid for panther-scalps, to inhabi- tants of the town only."
