THE SMITH FAMILY AT SWARTEKILL
The territory lying north of the Paltz patent in the present town of Esopus, on the east side of the Wallkill, was called Swartekill by the old people, and the name is still applied to the locality a little north of Rifton. We are indebted to Mr. William Smith, the Sunday school missionary, for information concerning the early history of the Swartekill neighborhood, derived mainly from his grandfather, William Smith, as fol- lows: Probably the first settler in this neighborhood was his ancestor, Hendrick Smit, the first of the name in this country.
504
HISTORY OF NEW PALTZ
He came from Holland in the same ship with Jacob Rutsen, who was the first settler at Rosendale and father-in-law of Johannes Hardenbergh, the first of the name in Ulster county. Rutsen paid Smit's passage across the ocean and the latter worked for some time to repay the money advanced. He then got a life lease for eighty acres of land on the east side of the Wallkill and included in the Hardenbergh patent. There were no definite bounds assigned to the eighty acres, except that it bounded on the south on the Paltz patent. It lay east of the Dashville falls. The house was built about 1715, at about the same date that Hugo Freer, Jr., Hendricus Deyo and Isaac LeFevre located on the Wallkill in the northern part of the Paltz patent. The annual rent paid by Smit was "a hen and a rooster." In his old days he obtained a deed for the eighty acres, which has never been put on record. But the property has descended in the family from father to son for 175 years, and the name of the owner has alternated from William to Henry for the whole time. During the entire period there never has been a mortgage on the property. Our informant has a son, Henry, who has a son named William, so the custom of naming the infant son for its grandfather has been continued to the present day.
The house, partly of stone and partly of frame, is situated a short distance east of Rifton. The very first house on the place was of logs. Some time ago an examination of the walls disclosed a small loose stone, which on being pulled out proved to be a whetstone, bearing the date 1704.
Our informant's grandfather, William Smith, was a soldier in the army of the Revolution. At the age of seventy-two he attended the gathering of Revolutionary soldiers at Kingston, in 1831, half a century after the surrender of Yorktown. He drew a pension of three dollars a month in his old age and was assigned bounty lands at Hurley.

CHAPTER XLV
GENEALOGY OF THE FRENCH SETTLERS OF NEW PALTZ TO THE THIRD GENERATION
BY LOUIS BEVIER
The reformation in France in the sixteenth century included among its adherents many of the nobility as well as the com- mon people who, as a whole, constituted a large and influential part of the population of most of the provinces of France.
Whenever the persecutions of the government and Romish hierarchy became particularly oppressive and violent the Hu- guenots, as they were called in derision by their enemies, living in Catholic communities and under Catholic rulers, were often obliged to seek refuge from the storm in those communities, where their co-religionists were in greater number so as to be able to afford them some protection, more particularly to those provinces where the Huguenot princes were in authority. These movements of the Huguenot population continued at intervals down to 1628, when Rochelle, the last of their strong- holds, was taken by Cardinal Richelieu, the minister of Louis XIII, and the power of the Huguenots as a political party was broken, and from this time all prudent persons foresaw that there remained no adequate security that the peace and tolera- tion now freely promised by the king would be maintained. They had too often proved by sad experience that Catholic princes acted on the maxim that "no faith should be kept with heretics," to trust the sincerity of the king and his advisers ; hence large numbers sought asylums in the neighboring Cal- vinistic States where they might enjoy those rights and privi-

leges which were denied them at home. So a more general emigration was inaugurated throughout the kingdom, and France lost thousands of her most quiet and industrious citi- zens to the manifest and acknowledged advantage of the Neth- erlands, England, Switzerland and the Palatine provinces. The French government from time to time increased the difficulties in the way of these fugitives until after the revocation of the Edict of Nantes, in 1685, their flight was absolutely forbidden. Yet still members, by one device or another, managed to es- cape to their brethren who had preceded them.
About the year 1650 the band of Huguenots who afterward associated as patentees of New Paltz, began to gather from their several homes in France in the vicinity of Manheim in the Palatinate where they sojourned about ten years, during which time some of those friendships and connections were formed which survived the transplanting to the new world.
Whilst they were in the Palatinate they affiliated with the churches there and enjoyed the confidence and respect of the church officials. This is evidenced by the certificates given by the pastors to many of the emigrants on leaving for their new homes.
One of these given by Jacob Amyot, the noted pastor of the church at Mutterstadt near Manheim, to Pierre Deio, is still in possession of one of his descendants at New Paltz, by whom it is valued as a precious relic of the past. This is dated January 31, 1675, the year preceding his arrival at Wiltwyck. It is said that the heirs of Jean Hasbrouck, one of the paten- tees, held a similar certificate dated March 16, 1672, and Peter Gumaer's heirs hold a similar paper dated Moise, April 20, 1686. Doubtless others of a like character were brought by each of these emigrant families.
Matthew Blanshan and his wife, · Maddeleen Jorisse, and
508

their son-in-law, Anthony Chrispel, with his wife, Maria Blan- shan, and three younger children of Blanshan, were the first of these refugees to set sail for the new world in the Gilded Otter, April 27, 1660. They arrived at Wiltwyck before De- cember 7, 1660, for at that date we find Dominie Blom's record of their presence at his first celebration of the Lord's Supper.
The next arrival from this band was another son-in-law of Blanshan, Louis DuBois, who, with his wife, Catharine Blan- shan, and their two young children, Abraham and Isaac, aged respectively four and two years, arrived at Wiltwyck in 1661. Matthew Blanshan and his two sons-in-law settled at the new village (now Hurley) as early as 1662. At the time of its burning by the Indians, June 7, 1663, Matthys Blanshan's two children, Louis DuBois' wife and three children and Anthony Chrispel's wife and child were taken prisoners and remained among their captors about three months, when they were at length restored to their friends. It was during the efforts to recover the prisoners, held by the Indians, that attention was first drawn to the lands along the Wallkill where New Paltz was subsequently located.
The LeFevre brothers, Simon and Andre, were in Wiltwyck and united with the church there April 23, 1665. The exact date of their emigration is unknown. They were young, un- married men at this time and brought to their new home the energy and enthusiasm for the reformed faith, which charac- terized the eminent scholar of their name, Jacobus Stapulensis Faber or LeFevre.
Advised of the unsettled condition of the New Netherlands, no more emigrants left the colony in the Palatinate until May 17, 1672, when Jean Hasbrouck and wife, Anna, daughter of Christian Deyo, and their two daughters, Mary and Hester,.
509
HISTORY OF NEW PALTZ
set out from Manheim and arrived at Wiltwyck in the spring of 1673. Jean Hasbrouck and his brother Abraham (of whom we shall speak later) were originally from the vicinity of Calais before their emigration to the Palatinate.
Louis Beviere and his wife Maria LaBlan followed shortly after to New York, in 1673, but made no permanent settle- ment until 1677 when the settlement at New Paltz took place. His two children, born before that time, were baptized else- where.
Hugh Frere and his wife, Mary Haye, and three children, Hugh, Abraham and Isaac, arrived about 1676, but there is no record of his appearance at Wiltwyck until the purchase of the land from the Indians and patent from Andros, September 29, 1677.
About this time Christian Deyo, with Pierre Deyo and his wife, Agatha Nickol, and their child Christian, came over and accompanied by the three unmarried daughters of Christian, viz .: Maria, Elizabeth and Margaret. Maria married Abra- ham Hasbrouck, the brother of Jean, mentioned before, Novem- ber 17, 1676; Elizabeth married Simon LeFevre, 1676; Mar- garet married Abraham DuBois, 1681. Thus Christian Deyo, the oldest of the twelve patentees, gathered all of his family around him again in the New Paltz, as they had been before in the German Palatinate.
Abraham Hasbrouck sailed from Amsterdam in 1675 and landed at Boston, and in July rejoined his brother Jean and his other friends.
In May, 1677, Louis DuBois and his associates obtained, by purchase, the title from the Indians to all the lands from the Shawangunk mountains to the Hudson river, which were more particularly described in the patent subsequently given by Governor Andros September 29th of the same year. The Pat-
510

entees as named in said Patent were Louis DuBois, Christian Doyau, Abraham Hasbrouck, Andre LeFebvre, Jean Has- brouck, Pierre Doyau, Louis Beviere, Anthoine Crespel, Abra- ham DuBois, Hugue Frere, Isaac DuBois and Simon LeFebvre. These men and their families. removed to their patent lands and there founded the village of New Paltz in the spring of the subsequent year. Here in 1683 they organized the French Reformed church, electing Louis DuBois as elder and Hugo Frere deacon. They adopted the confession of faith framed by the first Synod of the Reformed church of France in the year 1559 and the other formularies of the French Reformed church. These continued in use in the church and its school until the change from the French to the Dutch language was made, when the Heidelberg catechism took their place and the French church was merged into the Reformed Dutch church.
Below is a short account of the twelve patentee families to the third generation.
