METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH OF HUIGII FALLS.


The present organization of this church consists of the following : Pastor, Rev. Mr. Ashton ; Stewards, William P. Delamater, William Curry ; Leader, John Dunn ; Trus- tees, John White, Luther Turner. The superintendent of the Sunday-school is William Curry. This church is united with that at Alligerville in one charge. They also have an out-appointment at the " Rock school-house." The pastor of this church alternates with the pastor of the Reformed Church ; also supplies the new chapel in the Clove, below Lake Mohonk. This is a union house, and in the season of summer tourists has a congregation of considerable numbers.


METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH OF KRIPPLE BUSH.


This society was organized in 1855 by Rev. Ananias Ackerly, the first pastor, and consisted at that time of about 20 members. The next year a neat house of wor- ship, small but convenient, was erected at an expense of $1500. The society is attached to the Stone Ridge charge, and supplied by the same pastors. The present organiza- tion consists of Sith Smith and Heury Ten Hagen, Stew. ards; Peter S. Streets, Reuben K. Smith, John A. Prindle, Leaders ; and in the Board of Trustees are Josiah Smith, Thomas Oosterhoudt, Peter S. Streets, James Smith, and Siah Smith.


METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCHI OF GLADT KLIPT.


This society was incorporated by a certificate bearing date April 2, 1861. Edward Bush and Simon Bush were the inspectors of election. The trustees chosen were Fred- erick 1. Markle, Edward Bush, Cornelius C. Crum, David Vandemark, James Johnson. The proceedings were veri- fied before Hector Abeel, justice of the peace, and recorded April 18, 1861. This church belongs to the Stone Ridge charge, and is supplied by the same pastors. The present organization consists of John Markle, Steward; James E. Van Stecuburgh, Leader. The society has a plain rural chapel, built about the time of organization.

HISTORY OF ULSTER COUNTY, NEW YORK.


PROTESTANT EPISCOPAL CHURCH, STONE RIDGE.


This society have a small and plain but convenient house of worship, built some years since, and services have been maintained regularly to the present time. A sketch of this church expected from a prominent citizen of Stone Ridge has not been received at the time of going to press.


VIII -BURIAL-PLACES.


The oldest burial-ground is the one at North Marbletown. This was used long before the first Reformed church, that stood near it, was built. It is now within the grounds of the organized cemetery association mentioned below. There are some very early dates in this ground,-as 1692, 1693, 1690. Many stores bear the same barnes as the ancestors of the family a hundred years ago, for example, ---


" Louis Revier, Lisq., died Sept. 294, 1772, aged 55 years."


In connection with each of the two old houses of worship belonging to the church of the Clove was a burial-place. One of them is near the present residence of J. Westbrook, the other near the village of High Falls. These are still used for burial to some extent.


At Stone Ridge or not far from that village there are two burial-places. One of them is known as Pine Bush. Some of the stones bear very old dates. There is another, known as the MeGinnis ground. This is very full ; its long close rows of graves showing how mary of the pioneers and their descendants are buried within its limits. The burial-place at Kripple Bush dates back to the early settlement of the country. Besides these public burial- places there are also many private ones, where families have buried the dead upon their own farms.


FAIRVIEW CEMETERY ASSOCIATION.


This was incorporated by a certifiente bearing dale Ang. 5, 1876. The officers of the meeting were D. S. Vande- mark, Chairman; John H. Palen, Secretary. The trustees chosen were John P. Roosa, James II. Vandemark, James K. Ten Eyck, John H. Palen, Charles P. Bloom, Josiah Hasbrouck, George W. Baker, James Sahler, Jr., Cornelius Hardenbergh. John G. Kemble, Isaac IT. Cantine, Isaac E. Hasbrouck. The proceedings were verified before Ilec- for Abeel, justice of the peace, and recorded Aug. 8, 1876.


IX .- SOCIETIES.


Organizations to promote temperance have been numer- ous.


They each survived for only a short period, but doubtless they all had an influence in developing that sound publie sentiment which secures to Marbletown its present high standard of morals. Odd-Fellows and Masons in this town belong to lodges existing in other places. Vari- ons societies for promoting religious, missionary, or benevo- lent work or for literary improvement have been formed from time to time, but these and those above mentioned have left few or no records for the historian.


X .- PLACES OF HISTORIC INTEREST.


At Stone Ridge is a large and venerable building in which Gen. Washington was entertained overnight during his trip through the eastern portions of this State in 1783.


It is a large two-story gambrel-roofed dwelling, now very much out of repair, but evidently a mansion of considerable magnificence at the time of the Revolution. The south- west corner room on the second floor was Washington's sleeping apartment, aud has been known as the " Blue Room" in the subsequent history of the house. It is often visited by strangers who come to Marbletown. The place is the property of Hou. William Lounsbery, member of Congress from this district, and was the residence of his ancestors for many years. Major Cornelius Wynkoop was the proprietor whose hospitality Gen. Washington en- joyed. The property passed to the Lounsbery family about 1800. In the house are fine specimens of the Dutch tiles in blue and pink that in the old days adorned the dwellings of the wealthier classes. The house is now oc- cupied by Mr. Thomas Ostrander.


After the burning of Kingston, in 1777, the courts were held for a time at Marbletown in the house of Johannes Tack. This building is still standing, and has been kept in good repair. It is nearly opposite the old Wynkoop man- sion, mentioned above. In the days of the Revolution it was a public-house. It was continued as such for many years, being kept within memory of many now living by Sarah Tack and by John Tack. It was closed as a tavern shortly before the removal of the latter to the West. The house became the property of Peter Van Vleek, and was sold by him to Thomas Vandemark. He was succeeded by his son, Elijah, and the latter by his son, Dr. John Vandemark, the present owner. It is said that when the courts were held there the prisoners to be tried were kept in the old school-house that stood on or near the site of Dr. Craft's present residence.


MARBLETOWN THE CAPITAL OF THE STATE.


The organization of the State government had been commenced at Kingston by the inauguration of George Clinton as Governor, July 30, 1777. The first legislature, with Col. Levi Pawling, of Marbletown, as one of the senators, had met at Kingston, September 9th, and remained in session until October 7th, when they appointed a new Council of Safety and adjourned, the British having been successful at Fort Montgomery and an invasion of Kingston being deemed probable.


The Council of Safety were thus, ad interim, the real executive authority of the State, Governor Clinton being in the field with the Continental forces. At the burning of Kingston the Council of Safety fled to Marbletown, and on the 19th of October, three days after the invasion, they commeneed their sessions at the house of Andrew Oliver. Here they remained for one month, issuing orders and providing for all the exigencies of public affairs. Novem- ber 18th they removed to Hurley, and met at the house of Captain Jan Van Deusen until December 17th, when they adjourned to Poughkeepsie.


It remains to identify " the house of Andrew Oliver's" and determine its site. He was from Ireland, and settled in Marbletown perhaps as early as 1740. Ilis homestead was the present place of Cornelius Oliver, a great grandson, and the house in which the Committee of Safety met stood between the present dwelling aud the barns belonging to the


201


TOWN OF MARBLETOWN.


place. There is no evidence that Andrew Oliver kept a tavern, and the committee may have boarded at the old Davis tavern, nearly opposite. The house of Andrew Oliver was taken down some years later than 1800 and the present spacious mansion erected.


On a map of the Oliver farm drawn in 1795 and in possession of Cornelius Oliver there is a rough drawing of the old house where the committee met. It was a two- story stone building. In the front the upper row of windows consisted of six, and in the lower row five, with the door, made a corresponding number, and this was the capitol pro tem. of the Empire State.


Andrew Oliver had two sons, Richard and James. Rich- ard settled in Hurley, on the place lately owned by Wm P. Coke, deceased. James remained in Marbletown on the old homestead, and was a well-known physician for many years. He left one son, Matthew. The sons of Matthew were James, a physician, and Cornelius, both residing in Marbletown (the latter upon the old homestead of Revolu- tionary times) ; another son was Richard, who resides in Sullivan County. The daughters of Andrew Oliver were Mrs. Stephen Nottingham, Mrs. Brodhead, and a third, who remained unmarried. Matthew had one sister, who married John Miller, and settled in Montgomery, Orange Co.


The place where the public business of the Marbletown patent was transacted, and the annual meetings of the in- habitants held, for thirty or forty years before the Revolu- tion, is another point of considerable interest. The records show these meetings to have been " at the house of Janitie Davis," " at the house of Widow Davis," and at " the house of Frederick Davis." These different expressions undoubtedly refer to the same house, and extend over the period 1730 to 1770. It is probable the meetings during the Revolution were held at the same point, and continued to be, until some time later than 1500, when they were re- moved to the house of Isaae Bloom. The traditions among the Davis funilies of the present time, corroborated by those of the Oliver families, appear to settle the location of this house beyond a doubt. It was on the other side of the road, nearly opposite the house of Andrew Oliver. The Davis house is still standing, and occupied by Leonard Adams. It is evidently a building of great age. Its erutubling walls, low doorways, and general antique appear- ance all point back to the days of carly settlement. We have no means of determining when it was buik; but this immediate neighborhood is the Marbletown of early colonial days. The commissioner who reported in 1669 that he had named the " new village" Hurley also stated that he had assisted in forming another settlement beyond.


Not far away, too, is the old burial-place, where very early dates are found, 1692, 1693, 1699, and numerous enough to indicate quite a population. It is not too much to sup- pose that the publie business of the town was transacted at this house for one hundred years or more; that the house was standing at least seventy-five years before the Revolu- tion, thirty years before George Washington was born.

XI .- INDUSTRIAL PURSUITS.


Marbletown is well adapted to agricultural pursuits. A large portion of. its territory is arable land, and many fine 26


farms are found within its limits. The statistics given be- low from the census of 1875 furnish a concise view of the annual production. Quarrying is also an important industry of the town, furnishing employment to many laborers. The valuable bluestone belonging to the lower range of the Catskills is easily obtained in Marbletown, and is shipped in considerable quantities. At High Falls the cement business is of much importance, and has caused the growth of that thriving village. An extensive quarry of the cement rock is opened near the iron bridge over the Rondout. A horse railroad in the old bed of the eanal furnishes a con- venient method of transportation between the mills and the point of shipment.


By the reports of the census of 1875 it appears that in Marbletown the value of the farms was $1,397,985; build- ings other than dwellings, $232, 115; stock, $109.737; tools and implements, 872,227 ; cost of fertilizers bought, $3138; amount of gross sales, $96,896; aeres plowed, 4704; acres pastured, 5405 ; acres mown, 6234; hay pro- duced, 7587 tons; grass seed, 65 bushels; buckwheat, 16,283 bushels; eorn, 39,320 bushels ; oats, 39,761 bushels ; rye, 18,863 bushels ; spring wheat, 14 bushels ; winter wheat, 4992 bushels; eorn fodder, 30 acres; potatoes, 30,616 bushels; apples, 57,460 bushels; cider made, 1529 barrels; grapes, 430 pounds ; wine, 7 gallons ; maple- sugar, 805 pounds ; maple-syrup, 230 gallons ; honey col- lected, 3006 pounds; horses on farms, 865; mules, 13; value of poultry owned, $6840; value sold, $3059; value of eggs sold, $6389; neat cattle ou farms, 973; milch eows, 1251; beeves slaughtered, 160; butter made, 111,357 pounds ; milk sold, 1394 gallons; sheep shorn, 650; weight of clip, 2457 pounds; lambs raised, 575; sheep slaughtered, 63; killed by dogs, 43; hogs kept on farms, 3224 ; pork made, 241,619 pounds.


MILLS.


On a branch of the Esopus, in the northwest part of the town, there is a mill for cutting out heading, operated by William Stewart, and established a few years ago. On the same stream, below, there is a saw-mill by Gregor McGregor. On another branch of the Esopus, farther east, was formerly a saw-mill by C. Pratt ; business now given up. On Stony Creek, another branch of the Esopus, there is a saw-mill, and also a heading-mill, by Cornelius Markle. On a small stream in the eastern part of the town is the saw-mill of Peter E. Jansen. Taking the southeru branches of the Esopus, upon the one farthest west there is a saw-mill by John Du Bois. Above, on the same stream, are the saw- mill and heading-mill of Abraham Vandemark ; still farther above is the saw-mill of Simon Van Leuven. Ou another branch farther east are the saw mill and heading-mill of Cornelius Bogart. Upon the next branch cast, and not far from Stone Ridge, is the paper-mill of Newcomb & Bud- dington, and in connection with it a grist-mill. The grist- mill is very old. It was run for many years by Abraham Hardenbergh, and is still popularly known as the Harden- bergh mill.


Upon the Esopus Creek there was formerly a saw-mill, and also a grist-mill at the same place, --- the old Cantine Mills. These were burned a few years since, and have not

been rebuilt. They were owned by G. W. Basten. On a branch of the Peters Kill, above Lyousville Pond, is the saw-mill of the late John F. Baker, deceased. The Lyons- ville Pond is partly natural and partly artificial. Below the pond are the saw- mill and grist-mill of Luke B. Roosa. These were established about thirty years ago, by Isaac Lyons. There was also a tannery at this point, abandoned some years ago. Just below, and near the Rochester line, is the saw-mill of Lucas Barley. This mill-privilege was improved at an early day. On the streams in the vicinity of Kripple Bush there are no mills. At their junetion far- ther east there was a saw mill by Daniel S. Schoonmaker, now abandoned. This water-pewer was improved, it is pre- sumed, a hundred years ago. Below, on this same stream, is the grist-mill of Cyrus Depuy. This dates back many years, perhaps to the early settlement. It has been repaired within a few years, and is now in operation.


On the Rondout Crech, at High Falls, are the cement- mills of F. O. Norton. They were established by Isaac L. Hasbrouck. Just below is the grist-mill of Henry Rowe. This was built by Simeon Depuy. The ownership passed to Hiram Schoonmaker, and then to Mr. Rowe. Farther down, near the canal aquednet, was a grist-will built by Ja- cob H. Depuy. It became the property of the canal com- pauy ; afterwards of Delafield & Baxter. It is now owned by Widow Delafield, and is changed to a cement-mill and operated by Sherman Brothers. In former years there was a foundry at High Falls, given up some time ago. From a newspaper advertisement of 1818, it appears that eloth - dressing was carried on in Marbletown, " ene mile from the Rosendale Bridge," at the mills of Jacob L. Snyder.


XII .- MILITARY.


As in the case of other frontier places, the citizens of Marbletown were very caily armed for defense. They re- sponded to the calls of the Colonial Government in the wars which finally seenred to England the dominion of Canada. Those capable of bearing aruns were nearly all enrolled in the militia.


The following list of a company under Capt. Daniel Brodhead is interesting as showing the names of nearly all the prominent families at that date residing in the town, which then included a large part of the present territory of Olive and Rosendale. Compared with the list of those who went into the army during the late Rebellion, it will be seen that the same family names occur ; that the heroie blood of their ancestors flows in the veins of the children ; that these are prepared at any time to defend with their lives the goodly heritage their fathers won in these valleys, and transmit to succeeding ages the institutions of civil and religious liberty that are so richly freighted with the mem- ories and sacrifiees of their Huguenot ancestry.

REVOLUTIONARY WAR.


The names of soldiers of the Revolution who resided in Marbletown either then or subsequently are not preserved in any complete form. It is presumed that many of their names occur in other places in this volume.


Under the act of the Council of Safety passed Nov. 11. 1777, at the house of Andrew Oliver, the export of flour, meal, and grain to any part of the country in possession of the enemy was strictly forbidden. A license to make a single sale was necessary. David Bevier was a commissioner for this section, and several oaths on procuring such licenses are among the papers of his grandson, Louis Bevier. Leonard Hardenbergh had license Feb. 10, 1778, to export not more than four barrels of flour on condition that he brought into the country an equal value of salt, either for the use of his family or to retail to others. Others Meensed were Johannis Roosa, Jacobus Morris, Daniel Johnson. Christopher Snyder, Roeloff Eltinge, aud Abrahame Ter- peuning.


WAR OF 1812.


The following persons, either then or since residing in Marbletown, served in that war :


Edmund Burke, Abraham Buch, Joseph Bush, Ephraim Chambers. Henry Chambers, Solomon Christiana, Anthony Clausen, William Crispell, Andries I. Dewitt, Orr Frame, Joel Green. Charles Harkness.

Abra- bam Vandemark, Andrew Vandemark, Isaac Vandemark. JJoch I. Vandemark, Jr., John V. Vanheyser, Thomas A. Vanwagener, Peter Wager, Frederick Wood, John Yaple.


The following other military rolls relating to the war of 1812 are furnished by Hon. Heetor Abeel, of Stone Ridge, Marbletown. It is presumed they include names from other towns in this section of the county :


" A Company Book of Capt. John Bogart, made the fifth day of Sept .. 1814. Ou that day rendezvoused at Kingston, ten o'clock in the morning, at the house of Levi Jansen, Ulster County, State of New York, and discharged on the 11th day of December, on Staten Islan.l, in the year IS14.


" This company, and others given below, belonged to the 131st Regi- ment, commanded by Col. Benjamin Bevier :


@ Samnel Mourits was mustered in in 1733. He came from France with his mother some years before. He married a Miss Vandermark. Jis children were four sons-Samuel. Heury, Peter, Daniel-and one daughter ( Mrs. McEntre). Peter bad a son John, who is now living at Stone Ridge, born Sept. 11, 1791. The old nume Maurits was changed abont 1795 to Mowris, as appears from church records. There svetu to have been other finnilies of the same nathe here, as Pister Mourits was a constable in 1711.
