The cemetery in the Stewarttown district is located near the school-house and the Four Corners.

IX .- SOCIETIES.

In connection with the various churches there are the usual benevolent charitable and missionary or- ganizations. Temperance societies have existed from time to time, but have left few or no memoranda for the historian to gather up. Masons or Odd-Fellows residing in Wawayanda belong to lodges in Middle- town.

X .- PLACES OF HISTORIC INTEREST. JOGEE HILL.

This elevation is in the vicinity of the residence of Mr. Stephen W. Fullerton. The hill in some parts is | quite steep, but not rocky, and is susceptible of culti- vation. The base and the lands around it are light

and sandy, and the locality bears evidence of having been covered by water at an early day, as previously intimated. A family of Indians resided south of and in the vicinity of this hill. Since these lands have been cultivated, abundance of Indian arrow-heads have been found. At the early settlement small images of various kinds were also found at this lo- cality. Within a few days a field south of and ad- joining the hill was plowed up, and many arrow- heads were found; and what is remarkable, the Indians must have manufactured them there, as some were found partly finished, and the flakes or chips slivered off in the operation were also found. The flint out of which the heads were made is not found in this town, nor at any locality in the State, as far as we know. Indeed, we are not informed where this flint is found in any large or small masses. The in- strument with which the heads were made is conjec- tural. Stone would not answer the purpose, and they had no iron, and we are forced to conjecture that they nsed flint to manufacture articles out of flint .*

After this family had broken up and had left the town, two Indians, the last of the race, as it were, in this locality, remained. One lived at the hill just mentioned, and one upon the west bank of the Wall- kill, several miles distant. Shortly before the war of the Revolution some Indians visited them from a distance, and when they returned the two solitary In- dians left with them. These were the two last resi- dents seen in the town. In remembrance of the one whose wigwam was at the hill, the citizens, to perpet- uate the name of its last native occupant, called it Jogee, after the name of the Indian.

An Indian iron tomahawk, either found or obtained from an Indian in this locality, was presented to the Historical Association of Newburgh by Mrs. Stephen W. Fullerton, the whole of which is a pipe, the pole being the bowl, and the handle the stem. The toma- hawk is now at Headquarters, Newburgh.

XI .- INDUSTRIAL PURSUITS. .

Some of the finest land in Orange County for farming purposes is found in this town. Along the northern portion particularly there is a handsome rolling country divided into rich and productive farms. The Dolsentown neighborhood is scarcely surpassed by any in the State. At the present time there is little or no manufacturing in the town. Vari- ous mills have been already mentioned. Very choice stock is raised in Wawayanda, and the Dolsentown neighborhood has become famous for its fast horses. Of one of the most noted favorites of the turf the news- papers of the present year give the following item :

" St. Julian was sired by Goldsmith's Volunteer, and was raised by Mr. Joseph S. Dunning, of Dolsentown, who sold him to James Galway, of Goshen, for $600. Mr. Sargent, of Goshen, made $20,000 for St. Julian's

* Jogee also bore the name of Keghgekapowell. lle was one of the graotors to Governor Dongsn in 1684 of the lands embraced in the Evaos Patent. (Ante, p. 12.)

owner in the first season. His dam was raised by the late Wm. H. Mead, of Wawayanda. Mr. Dunning also raised St. Reno, a full brother of St. Julian, now owned by Dr. II. A. Pooler, of Goshen."

XII .- MILITARY.

No rolls for the war of 1812 are to be obtained here, but some names are remembered of those who were called out at that time, viz. : Benjamin Dunning, Jonathan Bailey, Jr., John Hallock, Jonathan Dun- ning. As a modern town, there is no military history to be treated of separate from other towns until the civil war of 1861-65.

WAR OF 1861-65.

This town furnished at the outbreak of the war 7 men; from June, 1861, to July, 1862, 5; July and August, 1862, 53; under draft of 1863, personally, 2, by substitute, 1, by commutation, 25; under call of October, 1863, and March and July, 1864, 90; total (including commutants), 183, or (less commutants) 158. Of the number stated, 17 entered the One Hun- dred and Twenty-fourth Regiment, 2 the navy, 11 the Fifty-sixth Regiment ; 3 the Eighteenth Regiment, 6 the Third Regiment; 10 in New York City regiments; balance not known. Under call of December, 1864, the town furnished 9 two-years' men to navy, 1 three- years' and 3 one-year men to volunteers.

By private subscription in 1863 $700 was raised and paid to drafted men.

The First Presbyterian Church of Ridgebury sent $140 to the Sanitary Commission.

At a special town-meeting duly ealled, held at the house of William H. Wood, Brookfield, Aug. 18, 1864, resolutions were adopted authorizing a tax of $36,000 for the payment of bounties to volunteers.

The amount of bounty to be paid to each was left to the discretion of a committee consisting of the town board and the following other citizens: John Cummings, Lewis Armstrong, Peter G. Flanagan, Reuben N. C. Mead, Henry C. Wiekbam, Johu B. Thompson, Benjamin P. Bailey, Thomas T. Durland, Joseph K. Van Bomel.

It was voted to pay $300 to any citizen who might furnish a substitute in anticipation of a draft. The town board was authorized to issue the necessary bonds for the purpose of raising the money, payable in eight annual installments, Feb. 1, 1868, to Feb. 1, 1875, inclusive.

The resolutions were adopted by a vote of 118 in favor and 71 against. Of the sum voted, $26,800 was expended.

Under the call of December, 1864, $11,350 was ex- pended. Under the settlement of that eall an excess of thirty-nine years was allowed, and the paymaster- general paid the town $12,500.

The death of Benjamin Carpenter occurred Sept. 28, 1828. The birth of his son Nathaniel, the father of Oliver C., BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES. occurred May 2, 1777, in the East Division of the town of Goshen. His boyhood was devoted to labor, varied by attendance at the public school of the dis- trict, after which he acquired the trade of a mason at GEORGE W. HORTON. Washingtonville, but later removed to Hampton- The HIortons are of English stock. The father of George W., Gilbert, was born in Goshen, Aug. 23, 1782. Here he followed the occupation of a farmer until his death, Feb. 3, 1854. He was united in mar- riage to Miss Sarah White, whose birth occurred Oct. 18, 1784, and to whom were born children,-Caroline, Eliza, Ocran, Susan, Chauncey, Mary Jane, Thomas A., George W., and Egbert J., of whom but four sur- vive. burgh, where he followed farming pursuits. He was married on the 10th of February, 1809, to Philotta, daughter of Joel Coleman, the latter of whom was a soldier at the battle of White Plains, during the Revolutionary war, and died Oct. 20, 1840. Mr. and Mrs. Nathaniel Carpenter had children,-John C., born in 1810; Oliver R., whose birth occurred in 1813; Julia Ann, born in 1817; Mary C., born in George W., the subject of this biographical sketch, was born March 8, 1824, in 'Goshen township, where his boyhood was spent. The advantages of education were at this time limited, and the labors of the farm were more imperative than any demands made by the district school-master. At the age of twenty-five Mr. Horton purchased the estate, embracing 200 aeres, which is his present residence, and where he has since continned farming occupations, being ex- tensively engaged in dairying. Jan. 22, 1851, Mr. Horton was united in marriage to Miss Henrietta, daughter of George and Melicent Ferguson Jackson, | George W., born in 1852; John W., in 1853; Charles of Minisink, now Wawayanda township, whose birth occurred Dec. 28, 1825. They have had children,- Sarah E., deceased ; Lawrence F., who is married to Harriet, daughter of Vincent Robinson ; Chauncey, deceased; John B .; Florence W., deceased ; and Emma J., who became Mrs. Y. A. Clark, and died, leaving children,-Henrietta and William. Mr. Hor- 1819; and William II., born in 1824. The death of Nathaniel Carpenter occurred July 3, 1846. His son Oliver C., whose birth occurred June 30, 1813, in the East Division of the town of Goshen, passed the early portion of his life in Hamptonburgh as a farmer. In 1851, having a desire to extend his business relations, he purchased the farm in Wawayanda township, which is his present home, and where his time is still spent in the superintendence of his landed interests. Mr. Carpenter was on the 14th of November, 1850, united in marriage to Miss Phebe Jane, daughter of Joshua McNish, of Middletown. Their children are Oliver, in 1858; Mary Ida (deceased), in 1860; Lillie Dale, in 1863; Maggie Jane (deceased ). in 1865; and Nathaniel Bradner (deceased), in 1868. Mr. Carpen- ter has always followed farming pursuits, and is now extensively engaged in dairying. In politics he is a Democrat, and cast his first vote for Gen. Andrew Jackson. Though always manifesting a deep interest ton is a Republican in politics, and manifests a laud- 1 in public affairs, he rarely participates in the politi- able interest in public affairs, though debarred by his cal conflicts of the day. Mr. Carpenter became a member of the Congregational Church of Middletown in 1850, and both he and MIrs. Carpenter are still among its active supporters. extensive business enterprises from active participa- tion in political strife. In his religious professions he affiliates with the Presbyterians.

GREENVILLE.

I .- SITUATION, BOUNDARIES, AREA, TITLE.

GREENVILLE is in the southwest part of the county. Its boundaries may be stated with approximate accu- racy as north by Mount Hope, east by Wawayanda and Minisink, south by the State of New Jersey, and west by Deerpark. The area of the town, as stated in the supervisors' report of 1879-80, is 17,665 aeres; the assessed valuation, $459,120 ; and the tax collected upon that basis, $3561.35. This town was a part of the Minisink Patent.

II .- NATURAL FEATURES.

The distinguishing outlines in the topography of the town are the Shawangunk Mountains, whose sum- mits form the western boundary, and the Bondinot Creek, which flows northward a little east of the een- tre, and approximately parallel to the mountains. This stream is a tributary of Rutger's Creek, and it flows northward to the line of Mount Hope, then ab- ruptly reverses its course and flows south to unite with Rutger's Creek on the town line between Minisink and Wawayanda. The other branch of Rutger's Creek also rises on the slopes of the Shawangunk range in Greenville, flows southeasterly to Waterloo Mills in Minisink, thence northward, and by a nearly direct line effects a junetion with the other branch, on the south line of Wawayanda.

Binnenwater covers about fifty acres. Its outlet is a tributary of Rutger's Creek. The pond lies about two miles south of the village of Mount Hope, one and a half miles southeast of Finchville, and about one mile south from the boundary line between Mount Hope and Greenville. It was originally a very important landmark, as constituting the southwest corner of the Evans Patent. In the old deed the pond was called " Maretange." After the vacating of the ! Evans Patent, and the making of other changes in lines, the pond lost its early importance in determin- ing boundary lines and land titles. The Pakadasink Swamp, north and northeast of Smith's Corners, is a tract of considerable extent, and in this the Shawan- gunk kill has its source, the kill itself having been known by the name of the swamp formerly. (See -- General History, p. 37.)

The Shawangunk Mountains, on the west border, are from two hundred to four hundred feet above the neighboring valleys, and from fourteen hundred to sixteen hundred above tide-water. The eastern slopes

land, and arable to their summits. The geological and mineralogieal features of the town are interest- ing. The mining enterprises are alluded to elsewhere.

III .- EARLY SETTLEMENT.

The town is modern in its eivil organization, and . its early settlement is blended with that of Minisink, from which its territory was taken. Like the other portions of Minisink it was a part of the old precinct of Goshen. The settlers who were upon its territory prior to the Revolution are found in the general as- sessinent-roll given in the chapters upon Minisink and Wawayanda, and in the list of signers to the Revolu- tionary Articles of Association. For the period im- mediately succeeding the Revolution we are depend- ent mostly upon names obtained in the records of the town of Minisink, supplemented by the informa- tion derived from some of the older citizens.

It is stated in "Hough's Gazetteer of New York," that Greenville was probably settled from 1720 to 1730, but no authority is adduced in support of the statement, while the dates obtained from Minisink town-books and from other authority do not extend back of the Revolution more than ten or fifteen years.

The following may be mentioned as among the earliest families who settled in Greenville :

Abraham Elston located soon after the Revolution- ary war on the place now owned by Rev. Mr. Frazier.

Garrett Durland and John Durland were located in Greenville at an early day.

Oliver Blizard resided in Greenville before 1800.

Godfrey Lutes was living on this territory before the Revolution. In the general assessment-roll of 1775 his name appears in Distriet No. 6, Joshua Davis, assessor.

Jonathan Van Tuyl, whose name appears in the cattle-records of Minisink soon after the Revolution, was an early settler of Greenville. He was the father of Arthur Van Tuyl. There is a stone house now standing in Clark's district, and owned by Ira Hal- loek, which is supposed to have been built before the Revolution, and known as the Van Tuyl homestead.

James Simon located in Greenville at an early day.

Elijah Smith lived in Greenville soon after the Revolution.

John Manning and Joseph Manning were early of the mountains are gradual, with little or no rocky | settlers. The homestead of Joseph Manning was the

place now owned by Joseph Manning of the present generation. The children of the pioneer, Joseph, were Joseph, Jr., John, Isaac, Richard, Walter, Benjamin, and Mrs. Judge James Finch, Mrs. Elea- zer Hulbert, Mrs. John Fogger. John Manning, a son of Benjamin, is now residing near the village of Greenville. The original Manning farm was a large tract bought at five shillings per acre. It is the opin- ion of John Manning that the brothers, John and Joseph, were settled here before the Revolution.

Joseph Reed, whose name appears in the cattle- mark records of Minisink soon after the Revolution. was settled within the limits of what is now Green- ville.

Israel Hallock was in Greenville at an early day.

Isaac Finch is mentioned in several of the early papers we have quoted. He was located before the | Story, James Scribner, Shaw Young, John Peckham, Revolution in the well-known Finch neighborhood, north part of Greenville or south part of Mount Hope.

Abraham Harding, Stephen Amesbury, Sylvester Cortright, Jonathan Wood, Benjamin Cole, Moses Cortright, and Eusebius Austin were also early set- tlers in Greenville.

Robert Eaton settled, soon after the Revolution, at what has since been known as Eatontown. His sons were John, William, Robert, Samuel. Daniel H. Eaton, son of John, resides a mile from Slate Hill, Wawayanda, at the old Fullerton tavern stand. Alexander Eaton was also a pioneer in Greenville at the same time with Robert. He had one son, Thomas. A grandson, James Eaton, is a resident of Port Jervis.

Coming down to a later period, 1813, it is easy to show what families were then living on the territory of the present town of Greenville. In that year the school districts of the old town of Minisink were or- ganized under the school law of 1812, and were re- corded by naming the families in each. These are preserved in the first volume of the town-records of Minisink. While some districts may eross the modern

School District No. 12, as numbered in 1813, in- cluded the families of the following persons : David Slauson, Caleb Green, Zadoc Mead, James Simon, Joseph Elston, Abraham Elston, Samuel Elston, Charles MeCluskey, Wm. P. Lee, Sanford Allen, Bodewine Cortright, Jonathan Wood, Elias Clark, Gilbert Vail, James Green, Garret Brink, Jeremiah Hazen, David Hance, Benjamin Wells, Lewis Stiles, Thomas Tuthill, John Owen, Asa Carpenter, Moses Slauson, Abraham Ilazen, Samuel Brink.

Collard, Jesse Canfield, Joseph Drake, Widow Martha Sullivan, Robert Jaquish, Syl- venus Quarters, Isaac Harrison, William Graham, Garret Durland, Hugh McConly, William Polly, John Cromwell. In 1826, John Holly was attached to this district. This is the old Bushville district, and is number " four," as now designated in Greenville.

District No. 16, as formed in 1813, included the following families : William Osband, Widow Catha- rine Davenport, Martin Davenport, Abel G. Smith, Jonathan Owen, John Whitmore, Noyes Wickham, Jr., Samuel Bodle, Increase B. Stoddard, Oliver Lewis, William Patterson, John Story, Alanson H.
