when slavery became the issue joined the Re- publican party. He was a frequent contrib- utor to the papers and periodicals of his day. His articles, mostly on local or political sub- jects, were both pleasing and logical. display- ing a broadness of vision and deep familiarity with the topics he was discussing. He served the city of Albany as alderman from 1864 to 1807. In councils he was an early advocate of reform and economy in the administration of city business.

Mr. Thomson married, June 25. 1851, Abby G., died February 24. 1907. daughter of An- gustus Sherman, of Glens Falls, New York. a descendant of Roger Sherman, a signer of the Declaration of Independence.

GARDNER The early Gardners of Dutch- ess and Orange counties, New York, were descendants of Benoni Gardiner, of Rhode Island, died 1731. The record is not clear, but the prev- alence of the names Stephen and Nathaniel in the family of Benoni and other facts taken in consideration lead to the conclusion that Be- moni Gardiner was the eldest son of George Gardiner, died 1677. who was admitted an in- habitant of the Island of Aquidneck (New- port. Rhode Island ), 1638. In 1642 was con- stable and senior sergeant : 1644 was ensign. His first wife was Herodias Hicks. Ilis sec- ond wife. Lydia Ballou, died (1772. By both wives he had fourteen children.


(11) Benoni, eldest child of George and Herodias (Hicks) Gardiner, died 1731. By one record he is said to have been one hun- dred years of age, which is evidently errone- ous, as he took the oath of allegiance. May 19. 1671. being then probably just come of age. In 1727 he calls himself ninety years of age, which is also improbable. In 1679 he and forty-one others of Narragansett signed a pe- tition to the King praying that he would "put an end to the difference about the government thereof, which has been so fatal to the pros- perity of the place." He owned land at Kings- town, Rhode Island, as several deeds testify. Ilis wife, Mary, born 1645, died November 16, 1729, bore him sons, William, Nathaniel, Stephen, Isaac, and a daughter, Bridget.


( III ) Stephen, son of Ben ni arol Mary Gardiner, was born 1685. There i- wr recurd of his marriage, but the records show that his father deeded him a dwelling house and or- chard. His father was considerably over ninety years of age at death : his Uncle Henry nearly if not quite one hun Ired year- old; the supposition is that Stephen married late in life and that Nathaniel is his son, Stephen be- ing then fifty-four years of age.


(IV) Nathaniel, son of Stephen Gardmer. was born March 17. 1739. He settled in the town of Washington, Dutchess county, New York, where the name becomes Gardner, and is so used by his descendants. 1 deel dated April 4. 1792, given by John Thorn, of New Windsor, U'lster county, New York, "Gent." of the one part and Nathaniel Gardner of the town of Washington, Dutchess county, New York. "yeoman" witnesses the transfer bi property to the latter from the former, con- sidleration five hundred pounds. The land ad- joined other lands of Gardner in the town of Washington.

(\) Stephen (2), son of Nathaniel and Eunice (Sunderland ) Gardner, was born in the village of Millbrook, Dutchess county, New York, February 27, 1767. He was a life- long resident and farmer of that section. He married. June 14. 1792, Mary Goodrich, born March 2. 1777. Children : 1. Louis born May 26, 1793. 2. Elizabeth, baptized April 6, 1795, married Isaac Wilsey, died June 25. 1873. 3. Dorcas, born December 18, 1798, married Peter Van Alstyne, born 1802. died 1871: she died December 18. 1869. 4.

(VI) Jefferson, son of Stephen (2) and Mary ( Goodrich ) Gardner, was born April 17, 1802. in Dutchess county, New York, died in Troy. June 2, 1888. He settled in Troy when a young man and was ever after a resident of that city and one of the pioneers in collar manufacturing. Among other early collar makers of Troy was John W. White, who in 1839 was in business at 345 River street. In 1840 Jefferson Gardner became his partner. The following year the firm dissolved and Mr. Gardner removed to 42 King street, and con- tinued in the same business. In 1851-52 Na- thaniel Wheeler, of the firm of Wheeler, Wil-


son & Company, visited Troy for the purpose of having his newly invented sewing machine adopted by the collar makers. Alluding to the results of his visit, Mr. Wheeler said: "I par- ticularly brought the attention of the manufac- turers of collars and cuffs to the machine, most of whom shook their heads, doubting the practicability of stitching collars by machin- ery. Among my visitors was Jefferson Gard- ner, who seemed to be less skeptical, patiently investigated the subject and concluded to give the machine a trial." Early in 1852 several machines were sent to Mr. Gardner, who put them in practical operation in his factory. His tests were so satisfactory that he soon ordered more machines. This first introduction of sew- ing machines to collar making is due to Mr. Gardner's willingness to follow modern in- vention, and his application of the sewing ma- chine to his business gave to collar manufac- turing a new life that resulted in its mar- velous growth. He married Mary Ann Wright, born in Troy, New York, September 2, 1807, died there May 27, 1892, daughter of John Wright, born at Inglesby Cross, York- shire, England, March 12, 1770, died in Troy, September 24. 1823: married Hannah Daw- son, born in England, Christmas, 1768, died in Lansingburg (Troy), February 21, 1867, at the great age of ninety-nine years, having lived in the United States since 1804.
