10304 Thomas Tracy was one of the charter proprietors of the town of Hartford, where he settled with his family in 1778-9. He was a large land owner, and took a prominent part in the affairs of the town. During the Revolution he was active in the frontier service of the militia; the names of Thomas Tracy and Sergt. Tracy appear on a pay roll of Capt. Edmund Hodges' Company for service done at Fort Fortitude by the order Col. Joseph Safford, from the towns of Pomfret and Hartford in October, 1780; the names of Thomas Tracy, James Tracy, and Sergt. Andrew Tracy on a pay roll of Capt. Joshua Hazen's Company in Col Wood's regiment that marched to Brookfield in the alarm, October, 1780; also on a pay roll of the same company who marched to Piermont, upon Gen. Bailey's request, March 9, 1781, in the alarm at Peacham (Vt. Rev. Rolls, pp. 201, 283,355). The title of lieutenant which appears on his tombstone was doubtless received after the Revolution. TRACY, Lieut. Thomas (I57478)
 
10305 Thomas Trowbridge was named in his father John's nuncupative will 1 July 1649 as "eldest son" when he moved from Taunton to Exeter, where he was fined for freeman L12.

The child Eliz. d.y. & john, the s. & h. remained in England, d. 1653; local will, naming John Manning of New England, merchant, William Davis of Muskeeta, Newfoundland, implied that he had sailed the sea with father. sons Thomas (Jr.) and William emigrated with parents to Dorchester, Mass., were James Trowbridge was born; they moved to New Haven, where Elizabeth the mother died. three children remained to have large families. Thomas Sr. returned to Exeter to remarry, by license, widow Frances Shattuck 10 Feb. 1640 in St. David's church. She, his cousin, was dau of Dorothy Trowbridge, dau. of Thos. Trowbridge (sr.) of Taunton. Thomas, Jr. paid L4 subsidy at West Munction, nr. Taunton. by 1643 they were back inNew Haven, a family of 5, rated at L500.

Later, he supported a wounded soldier's pension claim at Taunton Court of Sessions. He gave his New England sons power of attorney for property there 14 Jan. 1664. He and they traded to the Azores from both sides of the Atlantic. He was buried at St. Mary Magdalen Church, Taunton Somerset, 7 Feb 1672.

Elizabeth, first wife of Thomas Trowbridge, and other of his children, was bapt. at St. Mary Arches Church, Exeter, 24 Mar. 1602 of a family of centre of commercial and civic power in the cathedral city. This was amply set forth in 1905 in an article by Emory McClintock, "Thomas Trowbridge and Elizabeth," NEHG 59 (1905): 291-297. Elizabeth's father, the Alderman John Marshall, Mayor in 1615, was d. by the dau.'s marriage. Her mother Alice was the second dau. of the name, bapt. at St. Kerrians church, Exeter, 7 June 1572, and marshall's bride 30 Aug 1695 at St. Mary Arches.

10306 Thomas was a farmer on the estate left him by his father.

But few papers appear in the settlement of the estate, (Middlesex Probate No. 7160 1/2) there being only the inventory and a petition for the appointment of his widow as administratrix as noted below.....

Elizabeth hamond, his relict, widd. is granted adm. shee giveling bond as ye law pvides and shee attested this Invent. on oath 1-2-79

Nother further could be learned about his sons, Nathaniel and John.

There are some indications that John may have married and left descendants, as there are some of the name in later generations who cannot be accounted for on any other theory. 
HAMMOND, Thomas (I72879)
 
10307 Thomas was a soldier in the Pequot War. Served in King Philip's War under lieutenant Gillam & Major Savage, February to May, 1675-1676.

Excerpt from Connecticut, 1600s-1800s Local Families and Histories: "In 1640 he was an inhabitant and proprietor of the town of Dedham, Massachusetts. He removed to Medford, and was living there in 1652-59, occupying the water mill on the Mystic side of Charlestown, later Woburn. He moved to Cambridge, where he owned a house and eight acres of land east of the common. He sold his property there February 10, 1664, to Nicholas Wyeth and removed to Sudbury, where he leased Mr. Pelham's farm and lived until 1669. He settled finally in Framingham, where he built a house and barn, though he attended church in the adjoining town of Sherborn and was recorded as an inhabitant there January 4, 1674. During King Philip's war, February 1, 1676, his wife and several children were killed or taken captives. He held the office of selectman and was on various important committees before coming to Framinghan." 
EAMES, Thomas (I20362)
 
10308 Thomas was Archbishop of Canterbury.

He died " following of a sudden attack of some complaint in the throat". He was buried in his own cathedral, where he had caused a tomb to be erected in his own lifetime, but it has been since destroyed.

10309 Thomas was born in Littleton, New Hampshire on July 19, 1824. His family joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints (also known as the Mormon church) in 1833. Thomas was in the Mormon Battalion, and was sent with the sick detachment to Fort Pueblo, Colorado. There he met Carron Happuch Holladay. Caron and her family were traveling with the Mississippi Saints, and also wintered in Fort Pueblo. Caron and Thomas were married on September 6, 1849 by President Brigham Young. Thomas and his brothers Erastus and Sanford tended livestock at the mouth of Bingham canyon (the canyon is located in the Oquirrh Mountains approximately 25 miles southwest of Salt Lake City. It was named after the Bingham brothers who were the first settlers there). In 1850 Thomas and Caron moved to Ogden. In March 1851, they were called to go with a company of Saints to help establish the settlement of San Bernardino, California where they remained until the spring of 1855, returning to their former home in Ogden. In the spring of 1856 Thomas was called on a mission to the Salmon River Indians where he served two years and during this time Caron was left with the responsibility of caring for their three children. Their family was with those who went south during the Johnston army episode. In the spring of 1862 the Bingham family helped to establish Huntsville in Ogden Canyon and, in the fall of 1877, moved to Ashley Valley, locating first on the Green River; then, in the spring of 1878, they moved to Dry Fork (Mountain Dell), north of Vernal, where they resided for several years. In the fall of 1884 they moved to Mill Ward now Maeser Ward. Thomas died December 31, 1889.

Obituary from the archives of the Ogden Standard
Thomas Bingham Senior
A brief sketch of the life and synopsis of the funeral of Elder Thomas Bingham Sen., who died at 20 minutes to 2 o'clock on the morning of Dec. 31, 1889.
Brother Bingham was born July 19, 1821, In Littleton, Grafton Co, New Hampshire and was the son of Erastus and Lucinda Gates Bingham. He was baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 1837 and shared with his father's family the persecutions of the Saints. He received his endowments in the Nauvoo Temple, enlisted in the Mormon Battalion July 16, 1846, and traveled with the Battalion some distance beyond Santa Fe, where he was sent back with the second sick detachment to winter at Pueblo. He came to Salt Lake July 29, 1847. He was married September 6, 1849, to Caron H. Holliday, and moved to Ogden in 1850. In 1851 he was called to go to California, with C.C. Rich and Amasa Lyman. Returning to Ogden in 1855, he was called in 1856 on a mission to Salmon River, where he labored among the Lamanites until the Saints were called home on account of hostile Indians. He reached home the time of the "move," and moved his family south to Payson, and then returned to Ogden to guard the property of the Saints. In 1862 he moved to Huntsville, Weber County, where he lived several years. While there he was first counselor to President Jefferson Hunt, and after his removal was appointed counselor to Bishop F. A. Hammond.
In 1877 he moved with his family to Ashley, Uintah County. With the sanction and approval of President Taylor and the Twelve Apostles, he established a branch of the Church at that place, and was chosen by the people to preside over it. He was the first Presiding Elder of this place, also the first ordained Bishop. He was appointed selectman by the Legislature, and was the first Probate Judge of the county. He served two terms, and was nominated for the third, but declined on account of ill health. He was a member of the High Council at the time of his death.
The funeral of Brother Bingham was held in the Uintah Stake House, Sunday Jan. 5th, 1890. The house was suitably draped for the occasion. There was a large attendance of relatives and friends, and the occasion, though sad, was an impressive one. Among the speakers were Brothers Samuel Campbell, Matthew Caldwell, Harley Morley, James H. Glines, Dannie Winn and Samuel Thompson, members of the Mormon Battalion, and while they sought to convey consolation to the bereaved, and spoke in terms enlogistic of the departed, their emotions were so strong as to almost overcome them, and every heart in the congregation was touched. Counselor R. S. Collett addressed the congregation for a short time. He said that it was characteristic of the deceased, that he was strong in his convictions and ever on the side of right. His remarks were full of comfort and hope and calculated to inspire his hearers with a desire for eternal life. President Bennion endorsed all that had been said, and truly did he say that a good man had left us, nor was there any one present who had known him but would have added their testimony that all that had been said that day in praise of Brother Bingham was the truth.
So was he spoken of while he lived. So has he left his record behind him. Brother Bingham leaves behind a wife and seven children, all of whom were present at his funeral with the exception of his son David, who is at present on a mission to the Southern States.
Ashley, Uintah County, Jan 10, ?90 
BINGHAM, Thomas (I97000)
 
10310 Thomas was doubtless born in the old country. He married, 10 Oct 1657, Hannah Harrod (or Harwood as the name is now spelled). He died inDec., 1686, and his estate was administered at Boston 21 Sept. 1687. An inventory of his estate is recorded in the Suffolk Reg., X, 115, and begins, "An inventory of the goods and estate of Thomas Wheeler, son of George Wheeler, late of Concord, deceased." WHEELER, Thomas (I101192)
 
10311 Thomas was one of the 6 signers of the Indian deed of Haverhill. Came to Massachusetts aboard the ship James in 1635. DAVIS, Thomas (I15492)
 
10312 Thomas went to Connecticut with his brother, Caleb, locating first in the town of Lebanon, New London Co.

"Thomas Hammond, of Newtown, County of Middlesex, Province of Massachusetts Bay," purchased land in Lebanon, Oct. 30, 1721. (Lebanon Town records, Vol. 3, p. 325) Thomas Hammond, then of Lebanon, sold land there June 7, 1722.( Lebanon Town Records, Vol. 3, p. 437.) His marriage or the births of any of his children do not appear on Lebanon records, which are very incomplete in vital statistics. It is not known how long he remained in Lebanon or where he went from there.

The next records of him which have been found are in the town of Wethersfield, Conn., and consist merely of the records of births of the two children of Thomas and Jane Hammond given below. These were probably younger children, but no records of older children have been found. the next record found is in Torrington, Conn., where Thomas Hammond and several others from Wethersfield purchased a tract of land and erected a mill and a tannery in 1739. (See History of Torrington, Conn.)

No further record has been found of this family, but there were Hammonds in Torrington, perhaps his descendants, until within recent years. it is believed that his son, Thomas, who was born in Wethersfield, is the same Thomas Hammond who sold mill property in Connecticut and removed his family to the Shakers at harvard, Mass. but who died while settling up his property preparatory to joining them himself.

This Thomas made a provision that any of his children who desired to leave the Shakers should be allowed todo so on coming of age, and should be paid $100 each from the funds which he turned over to the community. A son Thomas did leave them and lived later in Shirley, Mass., where he died, leaving a numerous family. the connection is not fully proven, but there is so much circumstantial evidence that these families are given in this work as descendants of Thomas Hammond, of Wethersfield and Torrington, Conn.

10313 Thomas Wentworth, Knt., of Nettlestead, Suffolk, M.P. for Suffolk, P.C., was Lord Chamberlain of the Household to King Edward VI. WENTWORTH, Sir Thomas Knt. (I90180)
 
10314 Thomas West, Knt., K.G., 5th Lord West, 3rd Lord de la Warre son and heir, was summoned to Parliament from 15 Nov 1482. WEST, Sir Thomas (I80563)
 
10315 Thomas West, Knt., of Wherwell, co. Hants, 2nd Lord Delaware, Sheriff of Hampshire, M.P. son and heir by first marriage. WEST, Sir Thomas (I72926)
 
10316 Thomas Wheeler appears to have sold out his possessions in the old part of Concord on 13 Dec., 1722, and to have removed to the "village," or "new grant," which was afterward (in 1735) set off as Acton. He was the first Town Clerk of Acton, in 1735-6; he was also a member of the Board of Selectmen of the town the same years. He removed to Worcester, between 22 March 1739 and 18 May 1740. His dismissal from the church in Acton to that in Worcester, was dated 22 march 1741. He was one of the Selectmen of Worcester, in 1743, 1744, 1745, 1749, 1751 and 1753. He was elected deacon of the First Church in Worcester, 14 January, 1748 and held the office until his death in 1769.

In Worcester he resided upon his farm which adjoined the Leicester line on the old road to Leicester.

Soon after the marriage of his son Amos, in 1762, he went to Hardwick, Mass., where three of his sons resided and died there, 31 Jan. 1769. His gravestone is still to be seen in Hardwick, though much worn, and with its inscription nearly obliterated. Deacon Wheeler was evidently a man of considerable wealth, as is shown by conveyances of property from and to him, as recorded in the Middlesex and in the Worcester Registry of Deeds. 
WHEELER, Thomas (I101219)
 
10317 Thomas Wyatt married Jane Haute. They are said to have had ten children, of whom only three left issue. He led an armed conspiracy against Queen Mary at the tie of her marriage to King Philip of Spain. His badly organized followers fell away, and Wyatt was taken prisoner. Sir Thomas Wyatt was beheaded in the Tower of London on 11 Apr 1554, steadfastly refusing to implicate the Princess Elizabeth in the plot. His lands were confiscated, but Queen Mary returned the manor of Boxley to his widow, and Queen Elizabeth restored to her the manor of Wavering which Sir Thomas had held in her right. WYATT, Thomas Knt. (I90673)
 
10318 Thomas Yale, first of Wallingford, married Mary Benham, daughter of Joseph Benham, of the same town, May 16, 1705, and settled in what is now Meriden, Conn. He was one of fifty-one other persons who on the 22nd day of October, 1729, constituted the first Congregational Church at Meriden, Rev. Theophilus Hall being their pastor. He was a farmer. YALE, Thomas (I509)
 
10319 Thomas, gent., Dorchester, propr. 1635. Of independant opinions. He was informed by the Court 13 (1) 1639, that "Because of his novile disposition they were weary of him unless he should reform." he witnessed a deed in London June 12, and in Boston 21 (7) 1654. He deposed 2 (2) 1662 ae. near 70 years. His first wife died. He m. 2, Elizabeth, widow of Oliver Mellowes, who was dism. from Boston chh. to Dorch. 25 (5) 1641. MAKEPEACE, Thomas (I37584)
 
10320 Thomas, son of John, was in the Narragansett fight, 1675, and living in 1735. He was among the grantees of the seven Narragansett Townships, confirmed by General Court April 18, 1735.  RAYMOND, Thomas (I91776)
 
10321 Thomas, who was the 3rd Lord De la Warr, matriculated at Queen's College, Oxford on 9 Mar 1591/2 and received his A.M. 20 Aug 1605. Sir Thomas was Member of Parliament for Lymington in 1597/8. Thomas West followed Robert Devereux, 2nd Earl of Essex to Ireland in 1599, distinguishing himself in action near Arklow and was knighted by Essex at Dublin. he adhered to Essex even during the revolt of 1601 and was imprisoned in the Wood Street counter. Sir Thomas was lucky to be granted the liberty of the prison before the end of February and to be sent to his father's house a month latger on giving a bond of L2,000. Sir Thomas appeared before the Privy Council on 28 Apr 1601, and again in the following month, at which time he was fined 1,000 marks but escaped indictment. he succeeded to his father's title and to estates in Sussex and Hampshire within a year of his release. There was some difficulty about his entering into possession, and in May 1602 Sir Thomas Shirley petitioned Robert Cecil, 1st Earl of Salisbury that the Queen would grant West "those things which his father enjoyed.. for the young gentleman is left in a most broken estate."

West described himself as "the poorest baron of this kingdom" in a letter to Cecil, which led him to go to Virginia. he arrived at Jamestown in July 1609, the expedition being just in tine to save the colonists from starvation, and was the first Lord Governor and Captain General of Virginia from 28 Feb 1609/10. It was while on another voyage to Virginia that West died at sea 7 June 1618. Administration of his property was granted on 1 July 1620 to his widow. His eldest son, Henry, aged 14, succeeded. He immigrated in June 1610 to Jamestown on the ship "De la Warr". 
WEST, Gov. Thomas (I80570)
 
10322 Though a young man at this time, Mr. Stanley soon took an important position in the affairs of the town. He was a juryman in 1639 and 1643, and a constable in 1644, 1647, 1648, and 1653. This office was then one of the most responsible in the settlement, combining the duties of the modern sheriff and policeman, and being charged in general with preserving the order and decorum of the place. it devolved on him to summon the courts, General and Particular, to their sessions, and the freemen to their elections, to execute the decrees of the courts and the laws, to enforce order in public worship, to arrest and confine offenders, to administer the frequent whippings which were ordered in punishment of petty crimes, inflicting so many lashes "well laid on," a duty requiring a steady nerve and a strong arm.

In the year 1659, Thomas Stanley and his family, with some others, removed from Hartford, and commenced a new settlement at Hadley, Mass.

Though Thomas Stanley and his family removed from Hartford, he did not dispose of his house and lands there. At his death he left them to his only son, Nathaniel, who after the de3cease of his mother, returned and made his home there. They remained in the line of his descendants until they were bequeathed by his grandson William to the second church in1726. He died January 31, 1663, and was buried at Hadley. His will which is on record in Northampton, gives us interesting particulars as to his home and his family. 
STANLEY, Thomas (I83171)
 
10323 Though bred to his father's trade of gunsmith, he seems not to have practised it during his later years for the inventory of his estate contained nothing relating to it. He was greatly esteemed and much employed in public affairs, civic and military, often against his inclinations, and rose gradually to the highest military rank. He must have been nearly of adult age when his father came to New haven, for he was admitted Freeman, April 6, 1642 and chosen Corporal, Sept. 6th of the same year, July, 1644, he was chosen Sergeant and on June 7th, 1652, he was made Lieutenant and given charge of the military affairs of the town. In January, 1647, he was chosen a collector for Harvard College. He was chosen Deputy to the "Town Court" in 1653 and "Town Treasurer," the following year; Deputy to the Jurisdiction Court, 1659 and held the office many years. In 1661, he desired to be excused because "that the occasions of his Family did not admit of his accepting," but in spite of this address, he was chosen again. In 1665, he was appointed one of the Commissioners for New Haven. In 1665, he and five others were appointed b the General Court to superintend preparations for the defense of the coast between Stratford and Guilford, and during the Narragansett difficulties he was the chief military officer of New Haven. After the Union was formed with Connecticut in 1665, the Secretary sent to New Haven a requisition "to choose one or two of her ablest men to attend the General Assembly," and he and James Bishop were chosen. In May 1672, he was elected Assistant or Senator, to which office he was annually elected until his death. He also served as Townsman and recorder, holding the latter office at his death. He was chosen Captain in 1664 and in 1683, Sergt. Major for the County of New Haven.

TAPS SOUNDED FOR WELL KNOWN VETERAN
----------------------
JAMES SLAUSSON DIED
--------------------
Was Highly Respected Citizen of this City for a Number of Years
---------------
James Slauson, a well known and highly respected citizen of this city, and veteran of the Civil War, answered the last roll call Friday afternoon, March 8, 1918, at St. Lukes hospital in Cedar Rapids. Death followed an operation which he underwent two week's earlier, but from which he was unable to rally because of his enfeebled vitality. Had he lived five days longer he would have been 75 years of age.
He was born March 14, 1843 at St. Johnsville, N.Y., where he lived until eight years of age. He then moved with his parents to Sand Spring, Delaware county, Iowa, where he continued to live on a farm until 1908, when he came to Marion where he has resided every [sic] since.
During the Civil War, he enlisted as a volunteer, and rendered faithful service in Co. K, 21st Regiment, Iowa Infantry, from which he was honorable discharged.
He was united in marriage Dec. 25, 1866 to Miss Catherine Reed at Cascade, Iowa, and to this union were born nine children, two of whom died in early childhood. He is survived by his wife and six children: Mrs. W.A. Curtis of Rockwell, Iowa; A.G. Slauson of Humboldt, Iowa, Mrs. F.E. Wood of Bottineau, N.D.; Garfield Slauson of the Canadian army now in France; Mrs. R.E. Bannister of Cedar Falls, and Floyd Slauson of Marion.
Mr. Slauson was a member of the Marion Methodist Episcopal church, having transferred his membership here from the church at Sand Springs where he formerly belonged. He was also a member of the Grand Army of the Republic.
He was a man of a quiet temperament but strong in his convictions and friendships--a man work knowing and a friend sincere. He read much and was well informed on the topics of the day. He typified Blackstone's definition of a good citizen, "One who lives honestly, hurts nobody and renders to every man his due."
Funeral services were held at the home, 960 Eleventh street, Monday afternoon, conducted by the Rev. A.H. Hanscom of the Methodist church, and assisted by the Rev. Jas. W. Lee of Cedar Rapids. Interment was made in Oak Shade cemetery.

He was the eldest son of Richard Baldwin, of Cholesbury, Buckinghamshire, England, whose will was made in 1633, and Timothy was executor.

Abigail Stocking (b. in Chatham, Ct., 1766) dau. of Elijah of Portland Soc. Mr. H. rem. it is said about 1790 to Durham, Greene Co., N.Y., bu afterward exchanged farms with a man from Euclid, Ohio. He d. inEuclid April 1843. HURLBUT, Timothy (I66714)
 
10332 Timothy m. January 1, 1689/90, Hannah, born 1666 or 1667' d. 1737; daughter of Hon. William and Hannah (Goodwin) Pitkin of East Hartford, Conn. Hannah Goodwin was daughter of Ozias Goodwin, one of the first settlers in East Hartford. Hon. William Pitkin was one of the original settlers and large landholders in East Hartford; principal attorney of the colony; treasurer 1676; assistant 1690, until his death Dec. 16, 1694. His grandson, William Pitkin, son of William and Elizabeth (Stanley) Pitkin, was a great grandson of John Cowles. he was judge of the Superior Court; Deputy or Lieutenant Governor, 1754-1766, and governor of the Colony of Connecticut, 1766-1769, the date of his death. After his marriage Timothy Cowles removed to East Hartford, where he first appears in the records in 1695. He owned a three mile lot east and west from the conn. River easterly, part of which was taken in the highway laid out from Richard Gilman's north of Gilman's Brook easterly in 1734. He lived jut south of Gilman's Brook on the East side of Main street before 1700, on the site occupied in 1879 by Mr. I. Carney.

On Dec. 27, 1687 the town of Farmington granted to Timothy Cowles a four-acre lot, lying on the south side of Samuel Cowles senior's four acre lot "provided that he do come and inhabit in the town," from which it appears that he was not then a resident of Farmington.

He was a collector of the 3rd Ecclesiastical Society of Hartford in 1701, and deacon in 1718. Chosen at a Town Meeting, Hartford, Dec. 25, 1701, surveyor for the East Side; Dec. 17, 1706, constable for the year ensuing; constable, Dec. 18, 1711; grand jury man, Dec. 15, 1713; selectman, Dec. 18, 1716, for the year ensuing. In his will on file in the State Library at Hartford, dated march 31, 1728, his wife is not mentioned, indicating that she was not then living. They were admitted to full communion in the First Church at Hartford, Aug. 11, 1695.  
COWLES, Timothy (I13364)
 
10333 Timothy Mather, second son of Rev. Richard Mather and his wife Catharine Holt, was born in Liverpool in 1628 and came to Boston with his father in 1635 when he was but seven years of age. He was not educated at Harvard as all his brothers were, nor did he like them become a preacher, but for some reason he took a bent contrary to the rest of the family and gave himself up to the care of his father's large landed estate. Hence, and as if to emphasize this contrary bent, he became known as the "Mather Farmer." Apparently he was the business head of the family and kept things going while his brothers were fitting themselves to become preachers and his father was struggling with the versification of the "Bay Psalm Book". In his will his father very thoughtfully and considerately provides: - "And concerning my son Timothy, inasmuch as he hath not had so much cost bestowed upon him in his education as his brothers have had, therefore I think it meet that I should otherwise bestow upon him and his a greater portion of my outward estate," and then proceeds to give Timothy a life interest in the bulk of his real estate, remainder over to his children, and to make him also his residuary legatee. MATHER, Timothy (I101341)
 
10334 Timothy Williamson died unmarried in 1682; bur. 18 Sept. 1682. The inventory of his estate was taken 22 Sept. 1682, and showed property amounting to L51. 12s. 4d. It was presented to the Court at Plymouth by Arthur Howland of marshfield, and the following distribution was ordered: "This Court doth order the Estate of Timothy Williamson late deceased that it shall be divided between ye said Williamson brethren and sisters according to ye order of Court in that Case made and provided, That is to say ye Eldest brother of ye said Timothy Williamsone shall have a double portion of ye said estate and all ye rest of his brethren and sisters to have a single part or portion, and that the said Eldest brother shall have all the lands of the said Williams if he desier it, when he shall come of age rendring ye overplus of ye prise of ye said lands to his brethren and sisters if any should hapen toward ye making up of there parts or portions as above said." (Plymouth Colony records. wills, vol. 4, part 2, p. 4, and The Williamson and Cobb Families, p. 11 footnote.)  WILLIAMSON, Timothy (I61953)
 
10335 Timothy Williamson was a mariner, and lived in Boston during his short married life. At the request of his widow Christian (or Christiana) her husband's father was appointed by the Suffolk Probate Court, 27 Oct. 1718, administrator of his son's estate. His inventory showed that he owned a three-eights interest in the sloop "Martha", and his household effects were those of a man of substance. (Suffolk Probate Records.) His widow owned the covenant of the First Church of hartford 30 mar 1718 (records of the First Church of Hartford) and had, therefore, apparently gone to reside with her father-in-law. She m.

OBITUARY

CHAUNCEY L. RICH DEAD

Chauncey L. Rich died at his home in Richford, NY., Thursday afternoon, oct. 1, 1903, at the advanced age of 88 years. For several years he had been in feeble health, but able to be around the village, until about nine months ago, since which time he had been failing physically and mentally and for several weeks he had not left his bed. As death resulted from a general giving out from old age, his sufferings were not severe and the end came as peacefully as sleep to a babe. The Richford correspondent of the Newark Valley herald says:
"In the death of Mr. Rich, our town has lost its oldest citizen and also one whose long life has been an honor to the place. He came to this place with his parents from Newark Valley in 1821, when but six years of age, and his boyhood and youth, as well as business life and old age, have been spent in our town, which was regarded by him with deep affection. Ezekiel Rich, his father, was the hotel keeper and considered its most influential citizen. The son has well sustained the reputation of the father. Between the years of 1845 and 1872 he owned and operated a mercantile business in the building now occupied by C.G. Krum, but soon after the Southern Central railroad was laid through this valley he sold out his business and became treasurer of the railroad company and retained that position for 16 years. He has held all the important offices in town and was our postmaster for 20 years during his active business life, and again in 1893, after his physical strength began to fail and he might be termed an old man, he was reappointed postmaster and filled the position acceptably for four years. The funeral was held at the home, Sunday afternoon, Re. G.M. Hamilton officiating, and he was laid to rest in the family plot in the village cemetery. He is survived by three sons and three daughters, Chauncey D. of Auburn, George L. and Edward H. of Ft. Dodge, Iowa, Mrs. J.L. McEntee of Albany and Misses Winifred and Lucile of this place. Of his old time friends, but few survive. His brother-in-law and business partner, Mr. John Deming of Ft. Dodge, Ia., still lives, but in very feeble health".
