Van Ranst, Cornelius, a resident of Pine Plains in 1800 and earlier, was son of Cornelius, a sea captain lost at sea off Cape Hatteras, son of Peter Van Ranst and Sarah Kienster, who came to America from Rotterdam in Holland in 1712. The mother of Cornelius, of this lin- eage was a daughter of Cornelius and Elisabeth Willett, who lived at West Farms, Westchester County, N. Y. When very young she married Cornelius the sea captain, above, had one son, Cornelius. (this lineage) and subsequently married Augustine Graham, of Pine Plains. (See Augustine Graham lineage.) Cornelius, from almost infancy to man- hood, lived with his grand parents, Cornelius and Elisabeth Willett. He married 1st, Jane Warner, had daughters Jane, Elisabeth, John. Jane

was "Little Jane," p. 351. She married Henry Sheldon, at one time a prominent merchant in New York city. Elisabeth married -? Good- year. John never married. (These attended school in Pine Plains, 1799.) He married 2d, Ann White, sister to Andrew and John White, early resi- dents of Pine Plains. Had daughters Cornelia, Amelia, Mary. Cornelia married Rev. Doctor Lansing, Presbyterian minister at Utica. Amelia married James Sayre, merchant at Utica; Mary married -? Pond, was living in Brooklyn, June 1883, health poor. He married 3d, Eleanor Willett Gardner, widow of David Gardner, of Long Island. Cornelius Van Ranst deceased in New York city, September 30, 1841. In June, 1883, I called on Mrs. Jane Sayre, above, then living in Utica, N. Y. She was then a widow of eighty four, with mind unclouded and eye undimmed. Against the wall hung a clear, bright portrait of Cor- nelius Van Ranst. There was the traditional good, benevolent, social face and Roman nose of the early Dutch settlers of New York and Hudson river. I said on leaving, "I am very glad to have seen a daughter of Cornelius Van Ranst, and to have seen that elegant portrait." She replied with subdued emotion, "He was a good man." Not many years later she deceased.


Winans, James was the first settler of the name in this vicinity and the ancestor of all the later Duchess County Winans families. The immi- grant ancestors came from the Province of Brabant, in the Austrian and French Netherlands, to America, about 1630. Many since then have settled in New Jersey, at Elisabeth and other places in that state. James Winans and Sarah -? came to Duchess from Horse Neck, now Greenwich, Conn., and settled on the north border of Stanford, on the late Dr. I. M. Huntting farm in 1765-70. His children were James, Ira, Gerardus, David, Sarah a daughter, who married a Mr. Brown; Susan, who married -? Burton; Zayde, who married Edmund PerLee, Stephen, Seymour. James settied in Pokeepsie, married Johanna or Hannah DeGraf, had several children and has many descendants widely scattered. Ira married, lived in the town and emigrated from Duchess County about 1800. Has descendants in Yates County. There are many descendants from this branch. Gerardus settled in Pine Plains, but had few descendants in grandchildren. David had many descendants in this vicinity fifty years ago, but few now are living bearing the name. Joel S. Winans, many years a resident of Stanford and now living there, is a descendant. James Winans the ancestor, was born in 1714, deceased, April 4, 1795, in his 81st year. His wife Sarah deceased, Oct. 10, 1802, in her 87th year. They were buried in Round Top cemetery. A genealogy of the descendants of this James Winans to the present time would make a large volume.


Wilber-Wilbur. There were two branches of the name as early settlers in the town.


Wilbur, Jephtha, settled west of Stissing mountain, on the now

borders of Milan and Pine Plains. He was for many years in the com- mencement of this century a prominent official in old North East Town. He has many descendants far and near. Frank Wilbur, a farmer of Attle- bury, Leander, J., and his brother Webster, now managers of the coal yard at Pokeepsie and Eastern depot are descendants of his.


Wilber, Benjamin, ancestor of another branch, was an immigrant from Rhode Island and settled 1785-90 on the south part of the Steger- Sackett farm. His house long since gone was on a knoll east of the " Old House Swamp." He had children William, Robert, Ruth, Sarah, Benja- min. William married Sarah Smith, daughter of Peter and Saralı Smith. Robert married widow Mary Finch, maiden name Mary Smith, sister to Sarah Smith, wife of William Wilber. Ruth married McNutt from


Indiana. Sarah married Walter Smith, son of Peter and Sarah Smith. Benjamin married in Schoharie. William Wilber and Sarah Smith above had children Benjamin S., Matilda, Sarah, Theron, of whom only Benja. min S., married. He was a physician and commenced practice in this town about 1825. An old entry says: "I went to Doctor Wilbur to make agreement for his services for Doctoring Cyrus Prindle; 4 shillings a visit every other day." This was written Feb. 7, 1825, by Isaac Sherwood, overseer of the poor in Pine Plains. A few years later he went to the town of Washington, in this county to practice medicine, where January 1, 1829 he and Deborah Haight were married by Reverend William Jewett. He returned to this town in 1835 and lived on the Henry Myers farm in the dwelling now at the entrance to the Halcyon Lake villa, and later in that dwelling. He lived here several years, meantime combining medical practice and farming. Later he moved to Pine Plains village, where he deceased at the age of 76. His children were Robert, William, Sarah Frances, Theron, Benjamin, Charles, Catharine, Henry Clay, Margaret. Robert spent the greater part of his life in New York city and deceased there. William was a distinguished school teacher in Pokeepsie and New York city. He deceased a bachelor in Pine Plains. Charles is and has been seventeen years past, the editor and proprietor of the Pine Plains Register. Henry Clay is the popular "Doctor Wilber," of Pine Plains, and unmarried. His sister, Sarah Frances, makes his home and surround- ings enjoyable. (See cut of Dr. Wilber p. 300.)


Wooden, William, born in 1777, at Kinderhook, Columbia County, went to Pokeepsie and worked at harness making under William Emott, whose daughter, Mary, he married about 1800, and soon after.came to Pine Plains. He was the first harness maker in the town. Had two sons, John and Emott. The harness manufacturing passed into the hands of Emott principally before his father's decease and after that was increased and became celebrated. Emott retired from the business in 1859 and went to merchandising ; continued until April 1, 1865, when he sold out to Isaiah Dibble, who is now (1897) on the same location and in the same business.

HISTORY OF PINE PLAINS.


Emott Wooden married Deborah, daughter of David Dakin in 1833, had one son, William, who in 1858 was graduated from Trinity College, Hart- ford, Conn., studied law in Albany under Peckham and Tremain, was admitted in 1860, and settled in New York city. He was there in 1862 when in July he joined the Union army and was a captain in the 150th regiment. He was in the service until the close of the war, was mustered out, June 8, 1865. He came to Pine Plains, resumed law practice with Richard Peck, and moved to Pokeepsie, Jan. 1, 1867, was clerk in the revenue service two years, and later revenue assessor of the 12th district. In the winter of '72 and '73 was clerk in the State Senate and in the fall of '75 was elected district attorney for Duchess County, and was re-elected. He now (1897) resides in Pokeepsie, a lawyer. His father and mother, Jan. 1, 1867, emigrated from Pine Plains to Po- keepsie, where they lived and where each deceased a few years since.


Young. James was a resident of Pine Plains, as now bounded, in 1776 and lived a little over a mile north-west of the village. (See old house p. 47.) The town meetings for North East Precinct were held at his house from 1776 to 1782 inclusive. I know not from whence he came nor whither he went.

Case, original, Kaas, (German). "Ephram Kaas and Prudens " his wife had a son " John " baptised at Round Top church. June 6, 1767. He is sup- posed to be the near ancestor of the name in now Milan and Clinton. Abner and Jonathan, of another branch, brothers, are the ancestors of the name in this vicinity, living fifty years since and now. Abner, born 1754, deceased 1831, settled about two miles south-east of Pine Plains in the now Smith Thompson neighborhood. His wife Caroline was born 1762, deceased 1829. His son James, born 1785, married, 1st, Mary Rowe, had children Eliza, John, and Catharine who married George Smith, a farmer in the south-east part of the town. Their daughter, Phebe, married Wm. Carman, father of Supervisor Isaac Carman, of Pine Plains. John, above, married Eliza Corbin. They were the parents of Charles, George, John, and Mrs. Phebe Eno, (see Eno, Walter Lineage,) now living in Pine Plains. James Case married again, had five daughters and two sons, of whom Abner, one of the sons, is. now living in the town. Jonathan Case, brother to Abner, above, settled on a farm adjoining his brother Abner, had children Elisabeth, Jeremy, Wilson, Christine, Nancy and Amy. None bearing the name of this branch are living in the town.


Corbin. Job, (autograph p. 248,) came to now Pine Plains town pre- vious to 1799, settled on the now Charles Case farm, and is said to have built the large farm dwelling now there. He was prominent in the councils of the town, and was Justice of the Peace for many years. He came from Dover, or Pawling, was a Quaker. He married as 2d wife widow Phebe Ferris, who was Phebe Palmer, daughter of Benjamin Palmer, a wealthy farmer in the east part of Stanford. By her first husband (Ferris) she had two sons, James and John. James was a leather dresser at the south-east corner of Halcyon Lake, lived in the dwelling now there, owned by Smith Sackett. John, brother to James, settled in now Milan, on the farm now the residence of Smith Ferris, a son of his by his first wife. (For his 2d wife see Christopher Dibble Lineage, p. 329.) Eliza Corbin, only child of Job Corbin, above, married John Case, son of James, as above.


Carman, Richard, was the ancestor of the name well known in this town fifty years ago. He lived in now Milan, then " North East, " and about 1815-16 purchased the "Carman Mills" on the south-east borders of the town. This mill was built about 1750, and was in the "Gore " troubles for

many years. (See p. 34.) It came into the possession of Peter Rowe about 1800, who sold it to his brother, Matthias Row. Reynolds brothers suc- ceeded, then Mr. Ellison, then Richard Carman, above. Phineas Carman, his son, was next proprietor, his youngest son John being the last owner of the Carman family. At his decease it was sold November 1, 1879, and bid in by Walter Loucks for twenty-five hundred and twenty dollars. Phineas Carman's sons were Richard, James, William, Isaac, John. James and William have descendants, and William is the only one living (1897) of the Phineas Carman children, and has descendants.


German-Germond-Germain-Silas was the ancestor of the north- ern Stanford and Pine Plains families. Silas, 1st, married Sarah? Sutherland, had sons Peter, Reuben, Silas, Obadiah. Obadiah was at one time speaker of the Assembly. Silas 2d, ancestor of the Pine Plains families, married, 1st, Phebe Hildreth, daughter of James and Martha Hildreth, about 1792, had severalchildren. He married, 2d, Charlotte Knapp. He lived at the " Cor- ners, "about a mile west of Stissing, until 1802 when he moved to the "Ger- mond farm," about three miles west of Pine Plains village, on the corners near the late Henry Ham farm, where he lived until his decease March 22, 1849, aged 86. Polly Parks, widow of Jonathan Parks-her mother's name was Polly-occupied the farm, when Silas Germond succeeded. He took a deed of the farm May 20, 1803, about a year after he moved there, from -? White, of New York, Parks never having owned the farm. The farm is now in the possession of his grandchildren. He has descendants living in Stanford.


Graham lineage additional. The following is from Cothreen's His- tory of Woodbury, Conn. : "The Rev. Jolin Graham, A. M., the second son of one of the sons of Marquis of Montrose, (probably James, see p. 343, Gra- ham lineage, I. H.,) was born in Edinburgh in the year Queen Mary died, 1694. (Mary, II, Queen of Great Britain. I. H.) He received his educa- tion, and was a graduate at the University of Glasgow, in Scotland, studied theology at Edinburgh, and there received orders for the ministry. In the year 1718 he emigrated to Boston, in New England. He married Abigail, daughter of the celebrated Doctor Chauncey. He settled in the ministry at Exeter, N. H., where he remained till Dec. 1722, when he removed and settled over the church in Stafford, Conn. After remaining at this place ten years, he again removed and became the first minister in Southbury Society, Woodbury, in 1732. In this field of labor he remained till his death, December, 1774, in the 81st year of his age. During the last eight or nine years, however, through bodily infirmity, he was unable to minis- ter to his people. He was a learned theologian, and a consistent, de- voted and indefatigable pastor, universally revered for his piety, and exer- cised an extensive influence in all church affairs throughout the state. His original manuscript sermons, which contain a powerful elucidation of the whole Christian system, displaying great biblical and classical learning,

were bequeathed to his grandson, whom he Christened with his own name, John A. Graham, L. L. D., of New York city, who left them to his son John Lorimer Graham, Esq., of New York city. * * * * * This learned divine made, during his ministry, two visits to London and Scotland, upon each occasion on a mission from Yale Col- lege, to precure aid in books, etc., for that institution, in the success of which he always felt a deep interest. In both these missions he was suc- cessful." This much from Cothreen's Woodbury. The Rev. John Graham above has many descendants in "ancient Woodbury " to-day, and is yet called by the good people there "Priest Gram." He had ten children and their descendants are scattered throughout the United States. One of them was an Andrew, educated as a physician, married and settled in Southbury, a part of ancient Woodbury. Andrew was admitted to the church in 1741, and deceased 1785, aged 57. He was a man of note, would never allow Continental money to be discredited in his presence, and after his decease a large chest filled with worthless paper issued by the authority of Congress, was found among his effects. He was one of the Committee of Safety in 1775, was a surgeon in the American army, was taken prisoner by the British and confined several months in the old Dutch church in Nassau St., New York. His grandson, sixty years later postmaster at New York city, converted this church into a post-office. The only time General Washington passsed through Southbury he stopped for the night at Dr. Andrew Graham's. He deceased in Southbury, and was buried in the "White Oak burying ground," not a stone's throw from his home. The inscription on his head stone reads : "Andrew Graham, M. D., and a descendant of the Duke of Montrose, departed this life for an- other and better world, in June 1785, aged 57 years. Out of respect to the memory of 'An Honest Man' this marble is placed by his son, John A. Graham, L. L. D., N. York, 1805, Ne onlilie." Dr. Andrew Graham had a sister Love, baptised October 5, 1732, who married John Brinkerhoff May 19, 1752. He deceased soon after, had no children. His widow married, 2d, Rev. Jonathan Lee, the first minister of Salisbury, Conn. His 1st wife was a daughter of the president of Yale College, where he had graduated in 1742, at the age of twenty-four. He preached his first sermon in Salis- bury, 1743, was ordained and installed in 1744, and married as above the same year. He deceased there in 1788, having been pastor of that church forty-four years. On his monument in the old cemetery is a rude carving, representing him in his pulpit robes. Love Graham-Brinkerhoff, above, was his second wife. They had three children. Chauncey, Love, Walker. Chauncey Lee graduated at Yale in 1784, and was made D. D. by Columbia College a few years later. He was thirty years a minister at Colebrook, Conn. Love Lee married Rev. Aaron C. Collins. Walker Lee married and has descendants. Here endeth the Lineage. Honor thy father and thy mother, and have charity.


CONCLUSION.


The local, biographical and genealogical sketches in this book will have interest proportionately as the readers are more or less remotely connected or acquainted with the families and localities presented. What is nearest to us by consanguinity or by the experience and scope of our lives, quite naturally has the most ready claim upon our attention. Hence, some will find but little interesting to themselves in these local records, and especially those most restricted in acquaintance within the boundaries to which this work extends. Most of all, it will be certainly true of such as live most in themselves, and have no existence into the life of humanity. The most narrow and ill informed person is the most certain to feel himself the grandest product of time, and to sum up the world and all it con- tains in his own empty personality.


The past is the architect of the present and the future. The knowledge of what is nearest to us and most connected with our daily life, is of more value than that which is more remote. The geography, the history, the tradi- tions of our own home, the sky above, the earth beneath, the landscape, the lake and forest, not less than our social surroundings, make the moral and intellectual atmosphere, the environment of our lives, which goes to form character in all its external and internal lineaments. This wonder- ful scroll of human existence is an epitome of the universe. It is the cu- mulative history of ages wherein the individual is but a leaf in the great tree of humanity, whose trunk and branches are the past and present of human evolution.
