(V) General Simeon, son of Dr. Andries (2) and Jannetje (Vernooy) De Witt, was born at Warwarsing, Ulster county, New York, December 26, 1756, died at Ithaca, New York, December 3, 1834. The baptismal rec- ord shows that he was baptized on the day following his birth, into the faith of the Re- formed Protestant Dutch church. Young De Witt, after receiving such an English educa- tion as a scattered agricultural population af- forded, was placed for classical instruction with Rev. Dr. Romeyn. of Schenectady, an intimate friend of his father. He was thus prepared for college, and was sent to Queen's (afterwards Rutgers) College, under Rev. Dr. Ilardenbergh, graduating in 1776. the only one in the class. It was impossible to follow the course in quietude, for those were stirring times of revolutionary conflict. The battle of Long Island was followed by the evacuation of New York City, and the Ameri- can forces were not permitted to retreat across the Hudson river unmolested, for General Howe pursued them to New Brunswick, burned Princeton, and then marched on to Trenton. De Witt continued his studies at home, passing much time in the family of his uncle, General James Clinton, of the revolu- tionary army, and the father of De Witt Clin- ton, afterwards governor of New York, with whom he was a great favorite. This intimacy kindled a patriotism which resulted in De Witt's achieving prominence throughout his long career.


The news of General Burgoyne's contem-

plated excursion by way of Canada into the United States aroused both old and young. A battalion was organized in Ulster county under General Gates, to join the American army, and with this De Witt marched as a volunteer adjutant. On arriving at the seat of war, the men were incor- porated into a regiment already existing and being thus deprived of his temporary com- mand, he fell into the ranks as a private, and in this capacity was present at the battles which decided the fate of Burgoyne, as well as being present at the surrender of the Brit- ish following the battle of Bemis' Heights, October, 1777. The service being ended for which he and his companions had volunteered, he returned to his father's house, where he pursued his mathematical studies in connection with the practical business of surveying. Not many months had elapsed before General Washington, in a letter to General James Clin- ton, inquired whether he knew of any person who was qualified to act as geographer; in other words, to be a topographical engineer for the army. De Witt was immediately rec- ommended, and was appointed in 1778 to be assistant to Colonel Robert Erskine, then geographer-in-chief. He performed his duties so admirably that when his superior died in 1780, De Witt was appointed head of the de- partment, which commission was signed Sep- tember 8, 1780, by Thomas Mckean, presi- dent of congress, and took effect on December 4. 'lle was ordered, December 16, 1780, by General Washington to go to headquarters at New Windsor, and continued attached to the main army until the end of the campaign. He was constantly employed in the survey along the route of the army to Yorktown, and was present both at its siege and surrender, thus having witnessed the two important surren- ders, of Burgoyne and Cornwallis. The maps made by him were tendered to Washington with the suggestion that if printed by the government they would be of great value to the public; but although Washington advo- cated De Witt's idea, congress deemed the country too low in funds to attempt the under- taking. He was appointed surveyor-general on May 13, 1784, and he held the position for more than fifty years. He established, with James Clinton, the boundary between New York and Pennsylvania, completing the survey in the years 1786-87, in satisfactory manner. In 1786 the state legislature had requested him to prepare a map of New York, which he finished and published in 1802, being a most creditable effort on his part, and an in- dex at this day of what the state was at that time.


In 1796 General Washington, without Gen- eral De Witt's knowledge or solicitation, nomi- nated him to the senate of the United States as surveyor-general, and the appointment was cordially ratified, but he was obliged from force of circumstances to decline. The fol- lowing is the official record :


General De Witt considered this as the most gratifying event in his whole career, especially as he had gained, as shown by nu- merous private letters, the fullest confidence and friendship of George Washington. In 1798 he was elected a regent of the University, to succeed Hon. Lewis Morris, deceased, which office he held until his death, and for many years was senior member of the board. In 1817 he was elected vice-chancellor, and in 1829, chancellor of the University. He was a charter member of the Society of the Cin- cinnati. of which General Washington was president.


On the inception of the canal policy in New York, Mr. De Witt was officially directed to cause surveys to be made of all streams and rivers between the Hudson and Lake Erie, and for several years he was associated as one of the board of canal commissioners. He was a member of the American Philosophical Society, the oldest in the United States, join- ing in 1790, on the recommendation of Rit- tenhouse, to which he made one communica- tion, published in the 6th volume, "Observa- tions on the Eclipse of the Sun." He was president of the Lancaster school's board, Al- bany, and succeeded Chancellor Livingston as president of the Society for the Promotion of Agriculture, Arts and Manufactures, incor- porated by him and others in 1793 in New York state, before which he read two scien- tific papers, "On a Plan for a Meteorological Chart," and "Establishment of a Meridian Line in the City of Albany." His writings on drawing and perspective were published in a volume entitled "The Element of Perspective," 1813. In his annual address he introduced the novel idea of the rotation of crops. To the "Transactions of the Albany Institute" he contributed a table of variations of the mag- netic needle ; observations on the function of the moon, deduced from the eclipse of 1806, and a description of a new form of rain gauge. In Silliman's Journal he discussed the theory of meteors, and altogether he was thoroughly conversant with many important fields of sci- ence, but particularly agriculture and meteor- ology, ever exhibiting a most cultured mind, and a desire to advance the people's interest.

married (second). Janneke (Jane) Varick Hardenberg, born May 18. 1760, died April 10, 1808, daughter of John and Jane (Dey) Varick, and widow of Abraham Hardenberg: married (third), October 29, 1810, Susan Linn, born October 30. 1778, died May 5. 1824. daughter of Rev. William and Rebecca (Blair ) Linn. The third wife of General De Witt, Susan (Linn) De Witt, wrote a novel, "Justina," and also a poem en- titled "The Pleasures of Religion."


General De Witt's second wife was a sis- ter of Colonel Richard Varick, and with ex- cellent reason the descendants are proud of the relationship. He was a noted revolution- ary officer and recorder and mayor of New York. The latter office he occupied for twelve years, the longest term of service on record since the revolution. Colonel Varick was born of Dutch parentage, at Hackensack, New Jer- sey, in 1752, the common American ancestor of the family being Rev. Adolphus Van Vork, minister of the Reformed Dutch church at Jamaica, Long Island, who died in 1694. Colonel Varick was educated at King's, now Columbia. College, and embraced the profes- sion of law. At the beginning of the revolu- tion he tendered his services, and was ap- pointed military secretary of General Philip Schuyler, then commanding the Army of the North. Congress appointed him deputy com- missary-general in February, 1776, with the rank of lieutenant-colonel, and he was pres- ent as such at the memorable battles of Still- water and Saratoga, fought in September and October, 1777. After the surrender of Bur- goyne, he was stationed at West Point as inspector-general, and then became Washing- ton's recording secretary until the close of the war. To him Washington wrote from Mount Vernon, January 1. 1784. a letter cher- ished by his relatives living at Albany, which, in part, is as follows : "I pray you will be per- suaded that 1 shall take a pleasure in assert- ing on every occasion the sense l entertain of the fidelity, skill and indefatigable industry manifested by you in the performance of your public duties." In the possession of the Var- ick family is a small pair of silver spurs. As George. the young son of Governor Clinton. was one day riding down Broadway, in the city of New York, he was stopped by President Washington, who buckled these spurs on his boots with his own hands. Colonel Varick participated prominently in the forma- tion of the Society of the Cincinnati, of which Washington was the first president, and he was elected president of the New York branch of that society, July 4, 1806. lle served in the assembly in 1787-88, and in both years


was chosen speaker. He was made attorney- general, May 14. 1789, and was a reviser of the New York laws in 1778-89. The town of Varick was named in his honor, by act of legislature passed February 6, 1830. He died July 30, 1831.


Children of General Simeon and Jane ( Var- ick ) De Witt: 1. Richard Varick, born Feb- ruary 6, 1800, see forward. 2. George Wash- ington, born February 17, 1801, died August 2. 1814. 3. Susan Linn, born September 3, 1811 ; married, in 1835. Levi Hubbell. 4. Cor- nelia Lansing, born September 10, 1813. died March 15, 1820. 5. William Linn, born Jan- uary 13, 1817, died at Ithaca, New York, Oc- tober 12, 1903. 6. Mary Linn, born Febru- ary 23. 1819, died March 20, 1871.


(VI) Richard Varick, son of General Sime- on and Jane (Varick) (Hardenbergh ) De Witt, was born at Albany, New York, Feb- ruary 6, 1800, died at Albany, February 7, 1868. He inherited his father's scientific tastes, and was one of the founders of the old Albany Institute, as well as one of its first officers. Before that learned body he frequently displayed his scientific and literary attainments. He graduated at Union College, and after finishing his studies in the office of the late Harmanus Bleecker, afterwards United States Minister at The Hague, was called to the bar. He possessed a large prop- erty at Ithaca, New York, and while his natural tastes led him to literary pursuits, his prominent position forced him to a more active life. He established and maintained a line of steamboats on Cayuga lake, in their day considered models of speed and comfort. It was his pleasure to devote much spare time to architectural drawing; he has left behind many drawings of buildings and paintings in both water color and oil of the early types of steamboats, notably that of Fulton's "Cler- mont." Through his exertions and means, the Ithaca & Oswego railroad was constructed, which was one of the earliest lines in New York state ; but unfortunately in the financial disaster of 1837. he lost much of his property by the forced sale of this road. He was for many years both an elder and superintendent of the Sunday school of the Middle (or Sec- ond) Dutch Reformed Church of Albany. He was vice-president of the State Cincinnati So- ciety, and during the absence of Governor Fish in Europe, acting president. His re- finement was only one of his many charms, and throughout his whole life he maintained a spotless Christian character.

(VII) Richard Varick (2), son of Richard Varick (1) and Sarah (Walsh) De Witt, was born in Albany, New York, August 30, 1832, died, after a brief illness at his home, No. 202 Lancaster street, Albany, August 21, 1901. He was educated at the Albany Academy, and after finishing his education, in 1849, entered the employ of the Albany Insurance Com- pany. In 1854 he was employed in the New York State Bank, which position he held until 1868, when he again entered the insur- ance field. From 1872 to 1890 he was secre- tary of the Commerce Insurance Company, of Albany, and was secretary of the Albany In- surance Company from 1890 to 1896, when he resigned to engage in similar business for himself. He was appointed a member of the board of fire commissioners, September 8, 1887, and was for a long period the secre- tary of that board, serving with distinction until the board was legislated out of office in 1900. No man in Albany was more widely or more favorably known. His commercial career was most highly honorable, and he 'was noted for his geniality and humor. For sev- enteen years Mr. De Witt was a valued trus- tee of the Madison Avenue Dutch Reformed Church ; at one time a director of the Albany Exchange Savings Bank; trustee of the Al- bany Medical College; member of the stand- ing committee of the Society of the Cincinnati of State of New York, and president of the Albany branch of the Fire Insurance Agents' Association of New York State, and was a charter member of the Albany Academy Alumni Association. In his younger days he was fond of athletic sports and participated


in rowing and baseball contests. He was well known as a clever writer on miscellaneous and historical matters, contributing most en- tertaining articles to the local and metropolitan press. He was wise in counsel, of excellent judgment, and ever exerted himself for the welfare of others and for the benefit of the public good. When he died Mayor Blessing, of Albany, ordered the flags to be lowered upon the City llall and on all houses of the fire department. He was buried in the family plat with his ancestors in the Albany Rural Ceme- tery. A handsome memorial was dedicated September 25, 1910, in the Madison Avenue Reformed (Dutch) Church, in his memory and that of his family, by his only surviving sister.


HILTON The actual origin of the Hilton family is lost in the obscurity of distant ages, centuries ago; but it is reported to be the oldest family en- titled to bear arms in Great Britain. Certain it is that the vast number of legends related of the origin and of the early members are convincing evidence of great antiquity.


The first official mention of Hilton is that of 1166, when it is recorded that "Romamis, Knight of Hilton, holds of ancient feoffment three knights' fees." On June 23. 1295, in the reign of Edward I., Sir Robert, Baron Hilton, was summoned to Parliament, and his son, Sir Alexander, Baron Hilton, was sum- moned in 1331, under Edward III. While these are the only summonses known to exist, there is abundant evidence that the Barons attended many other parliaments.


The Hiltons quarter their arms with the Nevill, Skirlaw, Percy, Vipont, Percy-Lo- vaine, Lumley, Eure, Washington, Ogle, V'escy, Felton, Heron, Surtee and Bowe fam- ilies, and the arms of these families, with oth- ers too much worn by the ages to be accurate- ly deciphered, as well as with the arms and banners of England and France, and these are, with their own, beautifully sculptured on the walls of Hilton Castle, at the original family seat, which is in Durham, England.


In the vale of Wear, on the old road to Newcastle, three miles west of Wearmouth Bridge, county of Durham, stands Hilton Castle, low and sequestered, which is, in fact, according to the original name, Heltun. It is an unusually large structure, consisting of a main or central tower, built during the rule of the Danes and Saxons, to which the family undoubtedly belonged, and there are additions erected by the Barons of the Norman and later periods.


On the records their estates consisted of


368


HUDSON AND MOHAWK VALLEYS


the manors of Hilton, Barmston, Grindon, Ford, Clowcroft, North Biddick, Great Us- worth and Fallowsby, in the county of Dur- ham; Carnaby and Wharram-Percy, in the County of Yorke ; Elryngton and Woodhall, in Northumberland; Aldstone Moor, in North- umberland and Cumberland, with the advow- sons of Kyrkhaulght and Monk-Wearmouth.


(I) In the beginning of the seventeenth cen- tury Edward, a son of this ancient house, left Durham, his native county. to follow the sea. He engaged in the fishing industry, serving his apprenticeship, and became master. In 1621 he joined the Fishmongers' Guild at London. No doubt, being familiar with the New Eng- land coast through his voyages to the fishing banks of North America, and attracted there- to. he, early in 1623, brought a colony, with servants, cattle, implements and the like, to a place called by the Indians Cocheco, about six miles up the Piscataqua river, in the dis- trict known to the natives as Wecanacohunt. Here he settled, naming it Northam. It was later on called Hilton's Poynt, and is now known as Dover, New Hampshire. He like- wise named neighboring localities in memory of his home county, such as Durham, New- castle, Stratham, etc. Thus he was the first settler in what is now New Hampshire, and with reason is known as the father of that state.
