D. Eddy and others, and the courses taken as the magnetic needle now points, comprising a part of the town of North Greenbush, in the county of Rensselaer, and State of New York.
Bath is located almost entirely upon the hillside. It has excellent transportation facilities, being upon the line of the old Troy & Greenbush railroad, now operated by the Albany & Troy Belt Line railroad, and two steam ferry boats ply between the upper dock and Albany and Greenbush. The fire department was organized many years ago, the A. L. Hotchkin Hook & Ladder company, the first in the department, dating from the incorporation of the village in 1874. The water works are equal to any in the State for a village of the size of Bath, the pressure being very high. In 1887 a steel stand- pipe or water-tank was erected on the hill in the eastern part of the village, and new mains were laid at the same time. The village has no post-office and is served by carrier from the Albany post-office. In its early days a post-office was maintained, the first postmaster having been Cornelius Dearstyne. The Bath Sun and the Evening Star, weekly newspapers, were founded many years ago. The village is well supplied with stores and has a few small manufacturing concerns. In recent years Bath has been more commonly called Bath-on-the- Hudson to distinguish it from Bath in Steuben county. A thriving secret society in the village is Riverside lodge No. 47, Knights of Pythias, which was instituted about 1873.
De Freestville, a hamlet in the southern part of the town, sometimes called Blooming Grove, was probably settled before Bath. The post- office was established at an early day, and Jonas Smith is believed to have been in charge of the office.
Wynantskill, in the northeastern part of the town, is a small hamlet, the first residences in which have been erected but little more than a eentury. The post office was established about 1820, and the first post- master was Dr. Aseph Clark.
The oldest church in North Greenbush is the Reformed church at Wynantskill, which was established sometime before the year 1794. The records do not show inst when the church was built, but a call was extended to the Rev. Jacobus Van Campen in 1794, and it is believed that he was the first pastor. The officers of the church at that time

included George Sharpe, William Cooper, George Barringer and Philip Barringer.
The Second Reformed church at Wynantskill was organized early in the nineteenth century by members of the First Reformed church. A house of worship was erected soon after the establishment of the soci- ety, in which the congregation has since worshipped.
The Dutch Reformed church at Blooming Grove was established in 1814, upon the dissolution by the classis of the union between the Wynantskill and Greenbush churches. The Greenbush and Blooming Grove churches formed one pastoral charge until 1830, when each be- came independent. The first pastor of the church was the Rev. Nich- olas J. Marselus, who served from 1814 to 1822.
The Baptist church at Bath, whose incorporate name is the North Greenbush Baptist church, was organized between 1860 and 1867. A meeting house was built at the corner of Second and Ferry streets, but in the fall of 1820 this gave place to a larger one. The latter church was burned January 21, 1874, at a loss of $8,000. Work upon a new edifice was begun soon afterward, and it was dedicated February 18, 1875. The Rev. W. F. Benedict was the first pastor of the church, serving the congregation until April 21, 1869.
Some time between 1856 and 1860 the Albany Methodist Sunday School Union organized a mission Sabbath school in Bath, with Joseph II. Palmer of the Greenbush M. E. church as superintendent, and for some ten years sustained a Sunday school. In 1866 a neat, commodious chapel was erected by the Union at a cost of more than $5, 000. A class was formed with John G. Cooper as leader, and Rev. A. A. Farr of Albany was seemed as a supply to preach in 1869 and 1868. May 6, 1868, the Bath society was organized as a mission by Rev. Samuel Meredith, presiding elder of Albany district, with more than 100 mem- bers. Rev. Louis N. Beaudry was appointed by Troy conference to the Albany Methodist S. S. missions and took up his residence in Bath, the first Methodist preacher living among this people. Such success attended his work that Rev. P. P. Harrower of Albany was appointed to a portion of the work. In 1872 the Bath people asked for a man to supply them independently, and Rev. 1. C. Fenton was sent to them. Rev. John E. Metcalf was appointed to Bath and during his pastorate the society was incorporated under the name and style of Bath-on-the- Hudson Methodist Episcopal church. Under the pastorate of Rev. II. L. Kelsey in 1881 a new parsonage was built and paid for, and Rev.

CHAPTER XXX.
TOWN OF EAST GREENBUSHI.
The town of East Greenbush is bounded on the north by the town of North Greenbush, on the south by the town of Schodack, on the east by the town of Sand Lake and on the west by the Hudson river and the village of Greenbush. It originally composed part of the old town of Greenbush, but in 1855 it was incorporated into a separate town called Clinton. Three years later its corporate name was changed to East Greenbush.
The town was settled by tenants under Van Rensselaer about 1628 and 1629. Its earlier history is identical with that of the town of Greenbush.1 In 1669 a fort was erected on the Island of Papsknee, opposite the town, and upon that island some of the earliest settlements in the vicinity were made. Among the early inhabitants of the island was Cornelis Maas Van Buren, who came from Holland in the ship Rensselaerwyck. He and his wife were both buried on the island at the same time, in the year 1618. All traces of most of the earliest in- habitants have been lost or destroyed, or are so vague that nothing definite is to be gleaned from them.
Between these early days and the sixth deeade of the eighteenth cent- ury there were many changes in this locality. Farms had been laid out in every part of the town, and many of the inhabitants had amassed wealth. . About 1765 or 1766 Colonel Killiaen Van Rensselaer, son of Hendrick Van Rensselaer and a great-grandson of the first patroon of the colony of Rensselaerwyck, ocenpied a large and handsome property along the river bank in the southwest corner of the town. At that time he had been a resident there several years, just how long is not

known. His first wife was Ariaentje Schuyler, a member of a prom - inent Albany family. She died October 12, 1763, and he married Maria Low, daughter of Colonel John Low of New Jersey. He had five sons -Hendrick, Philip, Nicolaas, Nicolaas 2d, and Killiaen, and four daughters-Catharina, Catarina, Elsie and Maria. Hendrick became a colonel in the Continental army in the War of the Revolution and died September 19, 1816, aged seventy-three years. Nicolaas became a colonel in the Continental army, and died March 29, 1848 in his ninety-fifth year.
Among Colonel Killiaen Van Rensselaer's neighbors in the town of East Greenbush, then part of the town of Greenbush, was Anthony Bries, son of Hendrick de Bries. He married Catharine Yates and they had seven children-Hendrick, Johannes, Gerrit, Teunise, Christoffel, Johannes and Anthony. Other carly residents were Tobias Salsbergh, Teunis (Teuntie) Van Buren, Abraham Witbeck, John Witbeck, Peter Douw, Gerrit C. Vandenburgh, Christopher J. Yates, Hansie Witbeck, Anthony Van Everen, William G. Vandenburgh, Cornelius Van Everen, John Fonda, Mr. Ostrander and Meldert Van der Poel. 1
One of the earliest physicians locating in East Greenbush, probably the first, was Dr. John S. Miller, who, at the age of twenty one years, came from Claverack in Columbia county in 1804. He was a success- ful practitioner until his death, which occurred April 12, 1854. Dr. David Elliot was born in the town and began practice about 1815. Dr. John S. Van Alstyne began practice about 1836 and Dr. Andrew C. Getty succeeded him. Dr. Jeremiah Van Rensselaer was a prominent and beloved physician from 1852."
In the early days of the town nearly every house was a public one. Among the early tavern keepers were John G. Bishop, Edward Greene, John Huddleston, Groat Clark, James Lansing, Garret Yates, Captain John Herrick and others. The first hotel proprietor in the village of East Greenbush was Manasseh Knowlton, carly in the nineteenth een- tury. He was suceceded by James Burton, Benjamin Bradbury, Law- rence Rysdorph and others. Among the early storekeepers were James Lansing, who located in East Greenbush in 1802; Elijah Dag- gett and others.
At his fine residence on Prospect hill east of the village of Green-

bush Edward Charles Genet, adjutant-general, minister plenipotentiary and consul-general to the United States from the Republic of France, spent the closing years of his eventful life. He was born at Versailles, France, January 8, 1765, and while in this country as a representative of France, his intense patriotism, his extreme democratie principles and his zealous devotion to the efforts to procure assistance from the United States for France in her war with England, won for him the sobriquet "Citizen" Genet. He was superseded in office at the re- quest of President Washington and subsequently removed to Green- bush, the site of his home being now in the town of East Greenbush. He died at his home on Prospect hill July 14, 1834, and was buried near that spot. 1 Citizen Genet's wife was Cornelia Tappen, daughter of Governor George Clinton. Their son, Major-General Henry J. Genet, was born in 1800 and was prominent in local affairs. Be- sides serving in several local offices he represented Rensselaer county in the State Legislature in 1832. In the State militia he was succes- sively promoted to the rank of major-general, succeeding General Stephen Van Rensselaer to that office at the death of the latter. Gen- eral Genet died at Bergen, N. J., February 7, 1872, in his seventy- second year.
While little of interest occurred in the town during the French and Indian wars, the War of the Revolution and the War of 1812, many of the early inhabitants took an active part in those struggles. In the War of the Revolution the Van Rensselaer family were conspienous for their patriotism and bravery. Three of the members of that dis- tinguished family-Killiaen, Nicolaas and Hendrick-were colonels in the American army in the War of the Revolution, and served with honor in the last French and Indian war. Isaac Mull was also a colonel in the Continental army during the Revolution. In the War of 181 ?? Cornelius Schermerhorn and Barney Schermerhorn were colonels. It is impossible to give other names of patriotic residents of the town during these wars, owing to the destruction of the early records or the unsatisfactory way in which they were kept.
Ninerous noteworthy historical incidents occurred in the town of East Greenbush, particularly during its early days, while it was a part of the town of Greenbush. Among these were the establishment of the cantonment during the War of 1812, which will be found fully de-
1 Some authorities give Schodack as the place of his death. Late investigators agree that the event occurred at his home on Prospect hill.

seribed in the chapter dealing with Greenbush, and the famous anti- rent troubles, which have been treated at some length in a separate chapter in the history of the county.
A noteworthy ineident in the history of the town was an oeeurrence during the famous anti-rent wars, when a deputy sheriff named Gregg was killed in an attempt to eject a man named Witbeck from his farm. Many of those interested in the trouble resided in East Greenbush, which was frequently the scene of aetions for ejeetment after Colonel Walter S. Church came into possession of the title to the numerous farms formerly held by the Van Rensselaer family. 1
The first annual town meeting in East Greenbush was held April 3, 1855, at the hotel of W. R. De Freest. The officers chosen at that time were the following :
Supervisor, Frederick R. Rockefeller; town clerk, William R. De Freest ; assessors, Barney Hoes, David De Freest, jr., Martin D. De Freest; commissioner of highways, David Phillips; overseers of the poor, Adam Dings, John W. Craver; justices of the peace, Andrew L. Weatherwax, Frederick R. Rockefeller, Thomas B. Simmons, Will- iam Holsapple ; superintendent of common schools, Henry J. Genet; collector, Harris N. Elliott; constables, Henry Ostrander, Frederick B. Conkey. Jacob Earing, Harris N. Elliott; inspectors of election, B. B. Kirkland, Leonard 1. Rysedorph; pound- masters, Jolin W. Craver, William R. De Freest, Peter G. Clark, besides twenty- five overseers of highways.
Probably the oldest dwelling in the town is the old Van Rensselaer mansion, commonly known as the old fort, standing a few rods south of the limits of Greenbush village on the river road. It has been held that the fort was erected as early as 1663, and that it was the Fort Cralo to which the inhabitants fled for protection at the time when the com- munity was in a state of alarm on account of the depredations which were being committed by the Indians. However, the exact date of its 'erection and the name of its builder is in doubt. The date 1663 is probably too early. The style of architecture would indicate this. In the building is a stone bearing the initials " J. V. R." and the date 1740, probably standing for Johannes Van Rensselaer, who some authorities believe built an addition to the building about the date given. Some investigators think it was ereeted by Ilendrick Van Rensselaer, who (lied there July 2, 1740; still others think it may have been built by Jean Baptiste Van Rensselaer, son of Killiaen and the first director of the colony. The original building consisted of two large rooms on the first

floor divided by a hall. A little farther from the river, a few feet south of the fort, was another building about the same size for slaves
In late years the building has been owned and occupied by William N. Callender. From 1887 to 1893 legislative action was attempted to secure an appropriation of money from the State for the purchase of the building, but owing to a strong spirit existing in the southern end of the county against the perpetuation of any of the colonial landmarks associated with the anti rent disturbances, the bill was defeated from year to year. The measure provided for an appropriation of $20,000, and no objection was ever made to the amount as being too great, con- sidering the value of the property as a historical relic. The opposing forces fortified themselves with a bill providing for the purchase by the State of the Forbes manor house in North Greenbush, near Bath, with the intention of converting it into a soldiers' home. In the winter of 1895 the Society of Colonial Dames secured a lease of the historic house and the prospects in 1896 seemed to be that the famous old build- ing would be preserved for future generations by a historical society famous for its love of colonial relics.
In the War of the Rebellion East Greenbush, with a very small popu- lation, came promptly to the front with her full quota of men in re- sponse to the call for volunteers. The list is not a large one and it will be found appended entire :
George Pratt, Alford Schultz, Anson Butts, Frederick Olenhouse, James Brocksby, Michael Ostrander, George Burroughs, Abram Smith, George England, Joseph England, Alvah V. Traver, Frederick Baker, Philip Binck.
Died in the service .- John D. P. Douw, George H. Cipperly, Chester L. Traver.
The New York Central & Hudson River railroad and the Boston & Albany railroad both pass through the town. For many years the principal highway was the Boston & Albany turnpike, constructed in 1800; the Farmer's turnpike, running parallel to and near the Hudson river, and the old post road, the oldest in the county, said to have been constructed by the English in the early days of the French and Indian wars.
The only village in the town, East Greenbush, is located south of the centre of the town, on the old Boston & Albany turnpike and less than two miles east of the Boston & Albany railroad. Its earliest in- habitants located there about 1630, or before that date, so the town is next oldest to Greenbush in point of settlement. The two churches in the town are located in the village, which in reality is but a hamlet.

The post-office was established abont 1845, and the first postmaster probably was William Holsapple. The inhabitants are prosperous, and many of them own farms among the best in the county.
Religious services were held in East Greenbush at an early day. The Reformed church at the village of East Greenbush was not established until 1787, but those who organized it doubtless had held services for many years previous to that time. The Rev. James Van Campen Romeyn, the first pastor, began his pastoral duties there, in connection with the church at Schodack, in February, 1788. He remained in that office until July 1, 1794, when he became the pastor of the church he had organized at Wynantskill, serving in the two churches until October, 1799, when he removed to New Jersey. His successor, the Rev. John L. Zabriskie, did not begin his labors until 1801. All the early records of this church are in the Dutch language. The first church stood on or near the site of the present one. A new church was built in 1860 and dedicated in the spring of the following year. Since then it has undergone some changes, but is still a substantial and attractive edifice.
The Methodist church at East Greenbush was organized during or prior to 1875, and was the outgrowth of missionary meetings held for many years previous to that time. The first pastor was the Rev. Joseph Zweifel, who was assigned to the church in May, 1875. The church edifice was erected soon after the founding of the society.
