HISTORY OF ULSTER COUNTY, NEW YORK.

George Wall, by John Keator, Lieut. William Notting- ham, Lodewyck Hu-sey (at High Falls ), William Ashfordby, 104 acres; 1686, Gysbert Crom, John Westbrook, Col. Henry Pawling, 144 acres (at Coxsink); 1680, Ariaen Gerritse Fleet, 30 to 40 acres (at High Falls) ; 1694, Maj. John Ward (at Coxsink).


For several years after the settlement of Marbletown the growth of the town was slow. The farmers confined their attention to the lowlands and the hills near Stone Ridge, known as Butterfield; the latter seetion, being upland, free of timber, and mostly a deep soil, had a famous reputation for grazing. " Mormel" butter and cheese were shipped to the old countries and to the West Indies, where they com- manded the highest prices. The stock of superior blood raised here was not only in great demand at home, but in other sections of the colonies. To avoid the inconveni- ences of managing their cattle, which roamed over the com- mons free, and to be nearer their plow. land, Anthony Adlison and John Garton obtained permission to leave the village (now North Marbletown) and settle ou the other side of the lsopus Creek, near the residence in late years of the Montanye family. This departure from the early practice induced John Beatty to move to Stone Ridge, where he erveted the first white man's dwelling-honse.


About the same period Hendrick Cornelins Bogart par- chased on the old creek above the Kalteburgh,f near the mill of William Elting. The latter had just coustructed it on the picturesque fall owned in late years by Cornelius Bogart. William Nottingham purchased near the present paper-mill site. Thomas Brockway took up Brocksbeen Ilook.


William Ashfordhy, when not engaged in the duties of the office of sheriff, spent the most of his time upon Itis farm at Marbletown. He was a successful farmer. Like other public men of two hundred years later, he was sub- jeet to many charges, and was once suspended, but rein- stated soon after. After he retired from office he spent the rest of his life on his farm, in Marbletown, and died February, 1698. IJis property passed to his wife, Mary Barton, and to his daughters,-Susan, Mary, Helcu, Ann, Catherine, and Elinor. He died perhaps somewhat sud- denly, as his will was a verbal one, made in the presence of Capt. Thomas Garton, John Cock, and John Beatty.


The grant of lands in Butterfield to Beatty and Ash- fordby was followed by deeds for other portions of the same tract to George Hall, Thomas and John Kertoi .. Henry Jawling took up about -10 acres on the Rendout, opposite Cocksink. Arian Gerretseu Van Vliet, Tjerek Classen


Dewitt, Thomas Quick, Jan Oosterhoudt, ventured farther into the wilderness, and took grants in the vicinity of the Rochester church.


In July, 1654, Harmon Fckan, the Indian who took up civilized life, sold his farin at Mombaceus to Thomas Quick.


Richard Brodhead, of Marbletown, died somewhere about 1758 or 1759, and his children divided his estate among themselves at a conference for that purpose. His heirs were Daniel; Mandline, wife of Jacob Esselsteen, of Clave- rack ; Ann, wife of Andrew Oliver ; Neeltje, wife of Ste- phen Nottingham ; Elizabeth, wife of Christopher Davis; John Brodhead; Mary, wife of Robert McGinnis; and Rachel, wife of Furman, of the city of New York.


An carly quit-rent roll seems to give the names of the men generally mentioned in the above extracts and a few others : Jan Van Campen, Frederick Mourits, Arien Grietse, Elizabeth Bickerstaff, Jeremy Kettell, Gysbert Rosa, Andries De Witt, Gysbert Crom, Hendrick Bogart, Isaac Davis, John Beatty, Thomas Cock, Catherine Ash- fordby, John Cock, Sr., Capt.

The documentary history of the State gives the names of the freeholders of Marbletown, 1728, as follows : Corne- lius Eltinge, Esq., Richard Brodhead, William Notting- ham, Cornelius. Tock, George Middagh, Jacobus De Latn- tre, Huybort Lambertse, Daniel Brodhead, Sr., Wessel Brodhead, Thomas Cock, William Cock, Samuel Cock, Jeremie Kitle, Nicolas Keator, Arie Van De Merkee, Jacob Van De Merkee.

John Gysbertse Rooss, Fredrick Davis, John Beatty, Jury Best, Benjamin Aleger, James Mleger. We add also from the same source the following paper, which may have an interest to the present generation, but need make uone of them blush for their ancestors, because slavery was uni- versally regarded as right down to a much later period :

TOWN OF MARBLETOWN.

Philip Hardenbergh married a Miss Elmiendorph, and lived at Stone Ridge in a stone house on the west side of Main Street. It is now the property of Frederick A. Davis, and is very old. Philip Hardenbergh had two sons, Leonard and Jacobus, and several daughters, Rachel (Mrs. Jacob Dewitt). Polly ( Mrs. Ebenezer Lounsbery), Sarah (Mrs. J. Brodhead), and Eliza (Mrs. - Dewitt).


In compiling this chapter upon Marbletown valuable assistance . has been rendered by Mr. Louis Bevier. His ancestor, Louis Bevier, was one of the twelve patentees of New Paltz. His homestead in that town is said to have been opposite the present residence of Joseph Hasbrouck. He had five sous, Johu, Abrain, Samuel, Andries, Louis, and one daughter, Esther, who married Jacob Hasbrouck and settled in New Paltz. Of the sous John and Abrat settled in Wawarsing, Samuel in New Paltz, Andries died ummarried, and Louis settled at Marbletown, on the place now occupied by his descendant of the same naine, the present supervisor of the town. He had one son of the same name, Lonis, and the latter had a son David. David was the father of Lonis Bevier, captain in the militia in 1812, and the present bearer of the ancestral name is a son of the captain. The old dwelling was rebuilt in 1800, the present substantial mansion dating from that year.


In the lists of trustees and other town officers many more of the names of prominent citizens appear during many years succeeding the above period.


We give the following complete jury list of 1803, the carliest preserved in the town clerk's office, and also a portion of several subsequent lists. They are valuable not only because they show the citizens deemed qualified for jury duty, but also because they show the merchants, physicians, and mechanics in the early part of this century, and upou a territory extending over the greatest portion of the three towus of Olive, Marbletown, and Rosendale :
