PROUD FAMILY.


John Proud started from England in May, 1817, in a packet ship on which were many passengers, among whom was George Bowden, before mentioned. On their voyage they met with hard winds and storms which continually drove them from their course. They were 110 days on their passage, and all on board were put on short rations. At length, suffering from want of food, ten of the passengers, among whom were Messrs. Proud and Bowden, requested the captain to set them ashore on the first land they made. This proved to be Montauk Point where they were landed, and the two above mentioned, remained and settled in Southampton. By their own testimony they met the kindest of friends in the people of Montauk and Amagansett, who relieved all their neces- sities, and sent them on their way rejoicing. John Proud m. Phebe Brown and had ch. Phebe, w. of William F. White, and Henry, who now resides in Bridgeport, Ct.


RAYNOR FAMILY.


Thurston Raynor is recorded with the prefix Mr., which in early times meant more than it does now. He was a magistrate and a leading man in the early settlement. He came to this country in the Elizabeth from Ipswich, Eng., in April, 1634. He settled first in Watertown, Mass., then was one of the first settlers of Wethers- field, Conn., thence went to Stamford as one of its first settlers in 1640-41 and thence to Southampton, where he was made freeman in 1649. In 1639 he was one of the Deputies in the government of Connecticut.

HISTORY OF SOUTHAMPTON.


The record of the descendants of 46 Nathan' was furnished me by 61 Nathan H. Raynor, M. D., of Philadelphia.

It may seem improbable that there were two Thurston Raynors who had wives Martha and both d. 1667, but the evidence all points to that conclusion.


Two English families of this name have coats of arms described in Burke's Gen. Armory.


REEVES FAMILY.


The Southold tradition has it that two brothers, Thomas and James Reeves, came to this country about 1660 and took up a resi- dence in Southold. About 1667 Thomas moved to Southampton. Moore, in his Southold Index, says James came from Wales.

REEVE FAMILY.


For a long time the descendants of James Reeves of Southold have spelled the name Reeve. Bethuel Reeve of Southold town bonght land in North Sea in 1758 and resided there. He was of about the fourth generation in descent from James.

HISTORY OF SOUTHAMPTON.


RHODES FAMILY.


1 Capt. Henry Rhodes was born in Stonington, Ct., Apr. 25, 1762. He came to Southampton, entered into mercantile business and married Sept. 14, 1789, Hannah Cooper b. Aug. 6, 1765, sis- ter of Mehetabel, second wife of Col. Benjamin Huntting, both being thought to be daughters of Abraham Cooper of Southampton. He died Jan. 7, 1848, and his w. Hannah d. May 22, 1836.


They had ch. 2 Foster b. July 17, 1794, d. 1846, 3 Mary b. Oct. 3, 1796, w. of William Parsons, 4 Robert R. b. July 24, 1799, d. s. p., 5 Frances b. June 11, 1802, 6 Henry b. Feb. 11, 1805, and 7 James b. Feb. 11, 1808, d. 1838.


2 Foster had ch. 8 George R., 9 Robert R., 10 William, 11 John H. 8 George R. m. Frances, daughter of 3 Mary and William Par- sons, above mentioned.


6 Henry m. Emmeline, d. of Capt. Stephen and Sarah Sayre, and had ch. 12 Elizabeth, 13 Robert Sidney, who lives in Brooklyn and 14 Hannah.


7 James m. Sophia, also d. of Capt. Stephen Sayre and had ch. 15 Henry and 16 Simon, both of whom reside in California.


ROGERS FAMILY.


William Rogers is mentioned as a resident from 1642, to, at least, March, 1645-6. In 1645 the Gen. Court make him a grant of land. In 1649 he is made freeman. He appears to have had a home in Hempstead, for a few years previous to 1649. From 1649 to 1655 we find him an inhabitant of Southampton, and after this he disappears altogether. Nor can any will of his be found on record. Subsequent to 1655 Obadiah Rogers is mentioned as residing on the same homestead that William had occupied. In 1669 Widow Ann Rogers of Huntington makes a will, leaving ch. 2 Obadiah, 3 John, 4 Samuel, 5 Mary, 6 Hannah and 7 Noah . of these 2 Obadiah is called the oldest and is spoken of as living in Southampton. Now it is probable that 1 William gave the Southampton homestead to Obadiah about 1655, and with his w. and younger ch. removed to Huntington where he might have resided several years. 3 John and 7 Noah removed to Branford, Ct., and in the earliest deeds there recorded in which they are grantees of land, they are mentioned

This branch have always lived in Connecticut and of course there were many more ch. scattered through the six genera- tions, but I record all I know, on the authority of 250 Theodore D. Rogers7 above mentioned.


This finishes the record of the descendants of 1 William Rogers1 so far as I know it.


JAMES ROGERS FAMILY.


Another family of Rogers have long been connected with the history of Southampton, two members of which will be long remem- bered : Deacon John Rogers, long an estimable officer in the Pres- byterian Church and an upright merchant, and Miss Harriet Jones Rogers, to whom the same church is indebted for the gift of their fine organ, a lady respected for her exemplary character and good deeds.


For most of the following genealogy I am indebted to Warren Rogers Dix, Esq., of New York.
