Joshua 5 Webster, M. D., was born Scarboro, Maine, May 6, 1771 and died Fort Plain, N. Y., May 2, 1849. According to W. P. Web- ster's unfinished diagrams, he was a son of John 4 Webster (Joshua 3, Thomas 2, 1) of Kingston, N. H., and Elizabeth ( .? ) Fessenden or . Fenderson. Has more recent research . revealed certain infor- mation on his mother ? He settled in Palatine ,N. Y., near Lt. Coi. Johan Peter Waggoner, in 1798. In 1805, he rem. to Fort Plain and built a house on Wiliett St., where he was the most outstanding phy- sician of his community for near- ly half a century and was promi- nent in business and town enter- prises, being one of the founders of Fort Plain ,the first president of the Fort Plain Bank, and an Assemblyman from the 60th Dist- rict, 1822.
Joshua Webster married in Pal- atine, Aug. 23, 1801, Catarina or Catharine Waggoner or Wagner, who was born Palatine, N. Y., Feb. 21, 1785 (her bapt. rec. wanted), died Fort Piain, N. Y., Dec. 13, 1876, prob. at the home of her dau. Jane Ann (Webster) Ward, with whom she was living in 1864. Catharine was the oldest child of Johan Jost or Joseph 3 Waggoner, the Am. Rev. pensioner, and his 1st wife Catharine 4 Abeel (Jo- hannes 4, Christoffel 3, Johannes 2, Christopher Janse 1).
According to W. P.

This was probably about 1832 ,the date of Fort Plain's in- corporation, although not so stat- ed. Record of James Oliver Web- ster's death wanted.

Webster Jane Ann married where ? when ? Herman D. Ward, concerning whom all possible in- formation is wanted. From a num- ber of obituaries in the old Con- gdon-Wagner-Weils scrap book; it would seem that Jane was the 2nd wife of Herman D. Ward and that the Cornelia Ward who mar- ried Angeil Matthewson was a dau. of Herman's by a former wife, whose identity and children are wanted. Said Cornelia Ward was born at Hastings on Hudson about 1843, which would appear to indicate that Herman D. Ward rem. to Fort Piain and mar. Jane Ann Webster as his 2nd wife sometime after 1843. when? Con- firmation or corrections of
the above piecing together from the incomplete data given in several chituaries will be appreciated.
In 1868 Jane Ann (Webster) Ward was living in Fort Plain, N .Y., when her sister Henrietta (Webster) Hudson died in her home. When did Jane Ann rem. to Parsons, Kan .? Was it after she was widowed? when? Step-dau. Cornelius Ward and Angell Mat- thewson were married between 1864-68 and seem' to have rem. to Parsons, Kan., about 1871. It may be significant that Angeil soid his interest in the "Amsterdam Demo- crat" in 1871, Ot one time he was editor of a Fort Piain paper, what? the Mohawk Valley Regis- ter? Parents and bros, and sisters, with marriages, asked of this An- gell ,Matthewson. Was he related to Walter B. Matthewson who married Mamie Pegg ? Mamie's parents were Charies R. Pegg and a dau. of Abraham 4 Waggoner (Johan Peter 3, 2, 1), and Johan Peter 3 Waggoner descendants connecting with the Beil and Pe- trie families.

History Of Westport
By Harry A. Odell
A short history of Westport, New York, on the west shore of lake Champlain, as far as it con- cerns the Odeils, the Lobdeils, the Ferrises, the Hanchets, the Cadys and the Davises, taken from Caro- line Halstead Royce's "Bessboro" and letters from F. C. Haacker, Jean Imogene Odeli, I., Harlan Bird Odell and others. Double parenthesis ( ( )) are my own notes, H. A. O. (Continued from last week)
CIVIL WAR
"Captain Charles Henry Davis, who married Euretta Roseithy Odeil was our best known hero in the Civil War, with Levl Lob- deli Adeli, also entitled to be a captain but refusing the position, according to his son Harlan Bird Odell; Barius Orcutt served thr- ough the war and was at the Bat- tle of Shiloh or Pittsburg Land- ing, 1862; Harlan Bird Odell says: "He died in the eighteen-eightys; I recall father going to Chicago to be with her during the obsequy and I believe he sleeps in a Chi- cago cemetery." His wife (Eliza- beth Ann Odeil) died in Newark in 1918 -- Jean Ingeiow Odell, I. Alexander Eugene Adell's dis-
charge is to be found in photostat on another page; the record of Levi Lobdell, as given by Robert lished and so must stand though A. Gripple, has already been pub- disputed by his son, the best au- thority. Darius Orcutt (Dari) died in 1885, J. I. O., I.))
1860, page 496 Alvin Davis con- dunstar a hardware store in West-
2nd Lieutenant Oct. 16, 1864, 1st' Lieutenant of Company E, Nov. 15, 1864, and Capt. April 25, 1865. He is the son of Alvin Davis." ( (All this is much better told in the photostat of Uncle Charley Davis and Aunt Euretta.) )
527 Patrick Henry's birthplace near Richmond, called Liberty Hail was turned into a hospitai. Lewis Odell was among those wounded or sick in this hospital," he was invalidated home. Capt, Reuel D. Arnold also returned home about this time, 1862.
On page 513, Mrs. Royce says: "This regiment was called 'the 77th' or 'Bemis Heights Battalion' in allusion to the Surrender of CRAMER, FITZER Boungoyne at Saratoga in 1777, In actual numerical onder it stood who married Casper Fitzer. Lived somewhere in the forties." Data wanted re Clara Cramer
( (There is much more about the Civil War and very Interesting reading, but I cannot include it here. While a real Genealogy should contain whatever may be found of history regarding 'the family described it should not go beyond that.))
Mr. F. C. Haacker, who has been of the utmost help in this work, since he is working about other branches of the , Odell Family, must be credited with what fol- lows:

( (Diana Ferris must have been a cousin of grandfathers who was living with him.))
Thos. Odie had 50 acres in Mor- gan's Patent in 1861. ((This could, have been in "the Kingdom" or in Ferris' Road District.) ) Morgan's Patent was of indefinite boundary, land just west of Westport town- ship. See map.
"Robert Odell purchased land { in the Iron Ore Tract in 1838. He is referred to as of Elizabethtown. He purchased and sold several par-" cels of land between 1838 and 1867. His wife Roxanna appears first in 1844, In 1869, Robert F. Odell, of Cedar Falls, Iowa and wife Roxy Ann conveyed last par- cel of land in Essex County."
But here is a poser: Wm. E. Odell and wife Susanna R. of St. Mary's Illinois, conveyed land in Elizabethtown in 1867. (.(Who ) could that have been ? Outside of this one item there are no other! Odells mentioned in ali our re -! seanch in Westport that do not be- i long to our family.
