Anthony de Hooges
was one of the most delightful gentlemen whose names appear in our early annals. Some of our residents may well be proud when they learn of their descent from him. His surname means "the man high up" (compare onr Hoogeberg-"ho-gay-bar-rach"-or high hill), but he came to what is now Albany as the servant of Van Rensselaer, leaving behind a sweetheart in

THE MAYFLOWER LIST
Holland. Not long afterward the Patroon heartlessly writes that the sweet- heart has wedded another and bids him forget the homeland in order to be a better servant. From the first Commissary of the colony, de Hooges rose in 1646 to be for ten years the Secretary of Rensselaerwyck and the beloved "father-confessor" for everybody. His name is perpetuated in "Anthony's Nose" in the Highlands.
Taking Van Rensselaer's advice, Anthony de Hooges married at last, in 1647, his wife being the Eva Bradt to whom we referred last week as sister of Storm Van der Zee. (After Anthony's death, she married Roelof Swartwout). Their daughter Catherine de Hooges married Herman Rut- gers, whose name you will recall was derived from that of Rutgers Jacobsen van Schoenderwoert, and her daughter Elsie Rutgers married David SCHUYLER, Jr., twice mayor of Albany, and brother-in-law of mayor Johannes Abeel. Subsequently Elsie married the revered Dominic Petrus Vas of Kingston. I know several of her descendants in Catskill alone. Who are the others?
We shall continue from time to time giving brief accounts of early ancestors of our Greene county families. Send us all the information about them that you have, or tell us which one you would like to be told about soon .- C. Dec. 5. 1929.
The Mayflower List
will help to answer some of the questions that are being asked of us. There were one hundred and two passengers when the landing was made at Ply- mouth, on December 21, 1620. the two being infants born on board. When the famous compact was drawn up, forty-one men signed it as the repre- sentatives of the families present in the infant colony. Among these were Stephen Hopkins and John Howland, whose signatures stand beside each other, Miles Standish, John Alden (the last to survive) and William Mullins the father of Priscilla, who came tenth while Miles was sixth and John seventh. The first five, preceding Standish, were. in order, John Carver. William Bradford (governor), Edward Winslow, William Brewster and Isaac Allerton (ancestor of our Catskill family ).

OLD TIMES CORNER
The Name of Samuel Fuller
recalls that vigorous man of the same name, perhaps a descendant, who brought the Word of God into Greene and Albany counties when this was but a frontier settlement, as soon as one got back into the hills and away from the river.
The Reverend Sammel Fuller, Jr .. 1767/9/21-1842/4/9, was a native of Stafford, Tolland Co., Conn., who followed the wave of migration from Connecticut into the Catskill mountains and their foothills after the dis- turbances such as Shay's Rebellion that were the sequel of the Revolution. Having entered "sophomore" at Dartmouth College in 1788 and received his A. B. in 1791, he was licensed to preach in June of the following year and proceeded to deliver his first sermon on July S (1792) at Nobletown, now Hillsdale, N. Y.
On Nov. 11 he was married at Woodbury, Conn .. to Ruth Pond of that place, and in the following March they came to "New" Durham, N. Y., where he preached from March 26, 1793, onward, in true missionary style. Our valley towns were then part of AAlbany county, with settlement going on apace in all the hill region, so that it was natural for him to cross into Rensselaerville, where he first preached on April 9 of the same year, just. 49 years before the day of his death in that place. In the quaint language of the old record, when he thus came to Rensselaerville, he "tarried at Mr. Stephen Callender's" who lived in what was then called "The West Street" on the east side of Fox Creek.
Himself ordained on Jannary 23, 1794. in 1803 he preached at the ordination of his pupil, the Reverend Henry B. Stimson, who married Mr. Fuller's wife's sister Rebecca Pond and who labored so long and so success- fully as the first minister of the Presbyterian Church of AAshland, then Windham. Up to this time Mr. Fuller had been a Congregationalist, and had been the center and inspiration for the founding of numerons church organizations (later Presbyterian ) throughout these adjoining parts of Greene and Albany counties. But for some reason not clearly understood by the writer he now. in 1810, entered the Episcopal communion and was ordained a deacon in Trinity Church, New York city, October 10, 1810. A year later he was advanced to the priesthood in the same place, but meantime he had gone back to Rensselaerville and started an Episcopal congregation there, organized on Feb. 20. 1811. His successful efforts to reconvert to a different communion those of whom he had already made good Congregationalists, resulted in an invitation in 1812 to the rector- ship of St. Luke's Church, Catskill, but he felt that he had cast his lot with the hill villages and declined. In 1815 was finished the church building of his planning, in Rensselaerville, by Ephraim B. Russ the contractor.
On Feb. 6. 1813, his wife died in the epidemic of malignant fever that raged that winter. His second wife, who survived him, was Flora Backns. eldest daughter of Electns Backus the brave colonel of the United States atmy who had fallen at Sackett's Harbor in the skirmish with the British. hume. IS13. In Rensselaerville he lived and labored until his death at the age of nearly seventy-five. when his son, returning joyfully from a long absence, found that he had come just too late. This son was the well known Episcopal clergyman. Rev. Dr. Samuel Fuller (3rd) of Christ Church.

THE REV. SAMUEL FULLER
Andover, Mass. From the pen of the latter came a pamphlet of 52 pages as a memorial of his father, entitled "Early Days of the Church in the Wilderness." Can anyone find us a copy of that pamphlet ?
The facts here recited are gleaned from an article in the Gospel Mes- senger of April 15, 1843, Vol. 17: page 47 seq. The genealogical information secured from it may be stated briefly as follows. This branch of the Fuller family came into Connecticut from Rehoboth, Mass., and in the third generation afterward Mr. Fuller ( 1700-1795) the grandfather of our missionary was living in Ashfield, Mass., where he married a Miss Blodget of Huguenot descent. His son was Samuel Fuller, Sr., (died 1812) of Stafford, Conn., where he and his wife are buried; he married a Miss Merrill of Haverhill, Mass., whose mother had been born a Belknap.
The Rev. Samuel Fuller of our sketch was their son; his wife, Ruth Pond, daughter of Edward Pond of Woodbury, Conn., whose sister Martha married Josiah CONKLIN of Rensselaerville, and whose other sister Re- becca married the Rev. Henry B. STIMSON,* sometimes spelled Stimpson, of Ashland ( Windham). The mother of these three sisters was a sister of Adoniram Judson, Sr., father of the famous missionary to Burmah, of that name. Ruth Pond Fuller was married Nov. 11, 1792, and died Feb. 6, 1813 in Rensselaerville. Will someone in that place kindly send the inscription on her tombstone, so that we may have the date of her birth? Mr. Fuller's marriage to Flora daughter of Col. Electus Backus occurred on Sept. 28, 1815. 1 should like to add as many other dates and facts to those above given as possible; please send in any that you can.
Of his three sisters older than himself, and his three brothers younger, but one sister outlived him. Can anyone tell us the names of these sisters and brothers, and whom they married? As regards the suggestion that he was possibly a descendant of Dr. Samuel Fuller of the "Mayflower," we have not yet had opportunity to check up. Will someone with the Fuller genealogy help us out? Besides Dr. Samuel there was also Edward Fuller on the "Mayflower" who had a son Samuel; while Thomas Fuller who came before 1638 to Salem, Mass., and Matthew Fuller who arrived that year in Barnstable, had Samuels in their descendants of second or third generations. There was also a John Fuller landing in Massachusetts in 1635.
Besides his son and namesake, of Andover. Rev. Samuel Fuller had an only daughter. Can anyone put us in touch with any living relatives of this man who did so much forthespread of Christ's kingdom in our county ?-- C. Jan. 30, 1930.
[*Direct ancestor of our present Secretary of State at Washington. ]
For Next Week
we wish to hear from all members or descendants of the families of HOL- COMB or PECK that trace back to Greene county forebears. This is to complete at once onr very full information on all but the latest generations of these two families. Each week we shall take up new families in this way .- C. Not. 1, 1929.

OLD TIMES CORNER
The Holcomb Family.
This family goes back to the Norman invasion of England in 1066 when a Holcombe soldier fought beside William the "conqueror." The name is then lost until we find John Holcombe as a knight of the Crusades. llis son or grandson, Sir John 1320, married Isabel Downe a descendant of noble and royal houses. The name was originally Holteombe, meaning a wooded vale, and the final e is retained by many American descendants.
In 1620 Thomas Holcombe 1601 of the 9th generation from Sir John came to America with his bride Elizabeth Ferguson and settled in Dor- chester, now part of Boston, but later removed to Connecticut and partici- pated in framing the famous constitution of that Colony. Six generations later the wave of migration following the Revolution and the disturbances of "Shay's rebellion," etc .. brought ABEL HOLCOMB 1760 and his wife Elizabeth Pinney 1764 from Connecticut into the Catskill mountains, in 1802, with a family of ten children, to which an eleventh was added later. An account of their coming is given in the Beers history, page 396. (Copies of this county history, published 1884, are in the public library, high school library, etc., together with the later histories by Frank Gallt, Mrs. J. V. V. Vedder and others, and the older books of Rockwell, Pinckney, etc. We shall have frequent occasion to refer to these, by authors' names )
Thomas Holcombe's American descendants comprise many notable people, including one president ( llayes), while of the Greene county branch at least one has won distinction-the child poetess Hilda Conkling. Re- plies are coming in from the later generations in our county, but no complete account of the family can be prepared until all are heard from, the present writing being merely a preliminary sketch.
Abel Holcomb's eleven children were a remarkably hardy lot, one alone falling but one year short of the three score and ten while four surpassed ninety years. The list, with birth dates and ages, is this: Abel Jr. 1782, S2 years, married Mabel Miles (5 children) ; Friend 1784, 93 yrs., mar. Hannah Miles and later went to Pennsylvania to live (no ch.); Elizabeth 1786, 71 yrs. married -- JOHNSON (3 ch. ); Salina 1788, 91 yrs., mar. Willis MILES (3 ch.); Sylvia 1790, 91 years., unmarried; Lot 1792, 80 yrs., mar. Susan Barker (2 ch. ); Homer 1794, 82 yrs., mar. Margaret Ben- ham (10 ch.) ; Nancy 1797. 84 yrs., unmarried; Orator 1799, 84 yrs., mar. Rovilla Tuller (5 ch. 1; Lydia 1802. 96 years!, mar. Henry EDWARDS (2 daughters) ; Carlos P. 1807. 69 yrs., mar. Sarah Hitchcock (1 son ).
Abel junior's daughters became Mrs. Samuel WOLCOTT, Mrs. Geo. STIMSON Jr., and Mrs. Augustus SEYMOUR of Albany. Salina's daughter married a BUEL Homer's daughters were Mrs. Lyman PAYNE of Big lollow, Mrs. Richard GORSLINE of Cairo, Mrs. Calvin BROCKETT, while his granddaughters include among others Mrs. Marens SHERMAN of East Windham, Mrs. Frank BURROUGHS of Catskill, Mrs. W. T. MeGLASHAN of Maplecrest, Mrs. Henry ANDRE'S of Durham, Mrs. William BOYCE of New York, Mrs. John FROMER, Mrs. Frank STEWART of Cairo, Mrs. Walter SMITH of Georgia, Mrs. Charles TRAPHAGEN of Hunter, Mrs. Charles SOUTHARD of Philmont. Mrs. Dana IVES of Ashland, Mrs. Levl ANDRUS Jr. of Windham. Mrs. Wm. B. FRAYER of Prattsville, Mrs. J. H. CAUGHN of Geneva, Mrs. Henry JORDAN of Grand Gorge, and Mrs.
78
THE HOLCOMB FAMILY
Chas. 11. CHATFIELD and Mrs. Charles LAYMAN both of Prattsville. The late Dr. Sherwood A. Holcomb of Palenville was a grandson of Homer. According to some information, Orator was twice married, but we lack the name of his first wife, who seems to have been the mother of the daughter Lydia who married Richard Holcomb of Connecticut. Word from her family is desired. The other four children are those of Rovilla, and of these the youngest son also married a Holcomb, while a danghter became Mrs. Henry McGEE of Ctica. Lydia's daughters, Mrs. CARPENTER and Mrs. Henry SHOOP, lived in Saratoga.
In 1810 there was also living in the then town of Windham, ROGER HOLCOMB 1758 (spelled "llolkem" in the census) with six in family. Roger is buried in the Jewett cemetery with his widow Elizabeth Olcott 1770, who at the ripe age of 75 became the second wife of Charles Vorce of Ashland. The children of Roger and Elizabeth included Alanson Holcomb ( born before 1800) who went west with his family and in 1864 was living in Attica, Mich., and Abi 1794 the wife of Deacon Norman TICKNOR of Jewett lleiglits (see Beers history pages 349 and 460) who is buried beside her parents and husband in Jewett. Who was this Roger Holcomb? We cannot find his ancestry. May we hear from his descendants ?-- C. Nov. 21, 1929.

The Stoutenburgh Family.
At least three branches of this ancient Holland family of Man- hattan and Dutchess county had representatives in the Catskill region. For the moment we are concerned with the line of JAMES PETER STOUTEN- BURGH who came from near Rhinebeck and settled in Cairo soon after the Revolution, his final resting place being the Leeds cemetery. Beside him rests his wife, Margaret Simson, or Margaretta Samson according to the Rhinebeck baptisms.
James and Margaret bad seven children, all of whom had families. These were ( with dates of birth ) Polly 1785 married Cyrenns LENNON, Sr., of Cairo (ten children ) ; Rachel 1787 married William B. SALISBURY. of Jefferson ( nine children ) : James P. STOUTENBURGH Jr. 1789, of Cairo. married Clarissa Dann (nine children) ; Margaret 1791 married James LENNON, of Aera (seven children ) ; Joseph STOUTENBURGH 1794 mar- ried Priscilla Cooper (two children) and died in Cairo: Sally 1798 married Jacob M. PLANK of Leeds (two sons), and John STOUTENBURGH 1804 of Monticello and Fosterdale, N. Y., married Jane Ann Alexander in Hunter (four children ).
The daughters of Polly Lennon married into the CRAWFORD, BROCK- ETT, SANFORD and OLMSTED families, and her sons' daughters into the MORRISON, YOUMANS and CHADDERDON families; many of her de- seendants are living in Aera and Windham, while others have gone into neighboring towns and counties, to Massachusetts and elsewhere. From all of these we would like to hear at once, to complete our records of the lines.
However well known were some of Rachel Salisbury's descendants in Catskill (the late Franklin Salisbury, of Jefferson, was her grandson). we nevertheless need precise information concerning all of them. Married names of her daughters included FOWKS (of Leeds), JOHNSTON (New
79
-
OLD TIMES CORNER
Baltimore), RUSHMORE and PARK, whose lines have scattered to Greater New York and Virginia. Can we have tidings of all of these?
The children of James P., Jr., have also scattered widely; the married names include HOLBERT ( Pennsylvania ), LUKENS (?) and GEDNEY ( Kenoza Lake, N. Y.). Word from members of this branch is particularly needed.
Margaret Lennon's family appears to have but few living, in Acra and Purling, and all of one son, William S. Lennon. News from these will be most welcome.
Joseph Stoutenburgh's children were Alexander and Margaret, both said to be of Catskill, and the latter believed to have married FOULKS. It is evident how greatly we need information about these.
Sally Plank's sons were Nelson S. and Horatio Plank. Who can inform us further ?
Jolin Stoutenburgh's son James lived at Kenoza Lake, but James's sons are scattered, as are also the numerous descendants of his sisters, Isabel (GILDERSLEEVE) and Eliza ( PENDELL. ) Even from these we hope to have some word .- C. Not. 14, 1929. * *
The second member of this family to come into the Catskill region was PETER PETER STOUTENBURGH brother of James Peter (the middle name meaning that each was a son of Peter), who moved to Woodstock about 1818 and left a numerous progeny. None of this branch, as far as I can learn, ever crossed the line into Greene county to live. though on this point we ask information, hence they will be passed over for the moment. PETER TOBIAS and TOBIAS TOBIAS STOUTENBURGII, however, nephews of James P. and Peter P., settled in the western Catskills of Delaware county, where their descendants still live, and one each of these had Greene county connections. Peter Tobias's great-granddaughter Mary Warner, daughter of Adalbert M. WARNER 1849 of Stamford and his wife Anna S. Howard, is given as "of Catskill" and as marrying a SACHS. We wish news of her or her children. Tobias's son Tobias Jr. took as his wife Ann Wiesmer (or Weasmer?) "of Prattsville." Their son was Jolin C. Stontenburgh of Sidney, N. Y., with sons Fred and Perry; their daughter Mary Louise became Mrs. Alfred CAREY. Word from these is desired.
Third and most illustrious of the Greene county branches is that of LUKE 1. STOUTENBURGH (the middle initial stands for . Jacobus, his father's name). Luke Jacobus was own cousin to James P. and Peter P .. a man of ample means who gratified his luxurious tastes and whose wife Elizabeth Catherine Hoffman of Poughkeepsie was daughter of a prominent and wealthy family. They were a handsome and courtly pair, social leaders both in Hyde Park, the ancestral home, and in Coxsackie where they later lived, in the carly part of the last century. Of their seven children, three died in infancy and one other though married remained childless. as was also Luke's widowed sister Alida (baptized Aeltje, the old Dutch formy who likewise came to Coxsackie, marrying for her second husband Walton Street of that town.
The list of Luke's seven children is as follows, with date of birth:

THE DuBOIS FAMILY
DuBois Family Responses
are coming in. Do not wait too long with yours or you may get left out. We can now present the following additional list of those who married into some branch of this family and from whose descendants also we wish to hear:
Lewis ADSIT, Joel DEDERICK, Charles Nicholas EVERITT, Dr. Fred- erick W. GOODRICH, James Henry HUTCHENS, Addison Porter JONES, Noah LINDSEY, Dr. John B. LONGENDYCK. Frederick MARSH, Theodore F. MARTIN, Joseph T. MILLINGTON, William E. MYER, Ornan PECK, Walter D. PETTINGER, John H. RANNY, Murat RIGHTMYER, Thomas SIMONITE, John VAN DEUSEN. John A. VAN ETTEN, David YOUNGS.
The husband of Catherine Elize Jane DuBois, previously called for, was James A. BENNET, a newspaper publisher in Brooklyn. H. S. Eckler's first name was Hezekiah, son of Richard and nephew of Peter Morris ECK- LER. The name given as Jacob Myers should be Jacob P. MYER, and the names given as Witteker are also spelled WHITTAKER .- C. Jan. 2, 1930.
At Another Time
we would write our recollections of the tall, straight, kindly man who so recently still moved among us. For the moment our thoughts are of the all- cestry whose sterling worth he reflected. WILLIAM LARREMORE DuBOIS was one of those who returned to the cradle of his forefathers, for his great- grandfather Cornelius had been the builder of the beautiful old Dutch stone dwelling that to-day forms the wing of Mr. Palmatier's house on West Main street. Still earlier, Cornelius's great-grandfather Louis founded the frontier settlement at New Paltz. The DuBois line of descent follows, but there is another (the Crispel) line that goes back to the nobility of France.
Cretian (Christian) DuBois, a Huguenot, fled from France to Mann- heim, Germany,
Louis 1626 mar. Catherine Blanshan.
Solomon 1669 mar. Treintje Gerretsen.
Benjamin 1697 mar. Catharine Suylandt.
Cornelius 1727 mar. Catharine Vanderpoel.
Abraham 1766 mar. Jennie Grant.
Grant 1801 mar. Catharine Larremore.
William barremore 1838 mar. 1862 Mary Jane Hliard Dodge.
In February, 1863, Mr. DuBois left New York city, where he had been born and raised, and came with his bride to Catskill to enter into part- nership with Mr. Benjamin Wey; and here he remained. *- C. Dec. 12, 1929. [*See pages 41 to 45.]
