Reproduction of portions of this text will be discouraged if I do not receive credit and credit is not given to those, past and present, who have made major contributions to our knowl- edge of the Stark Families presented in this text. Dedication This publication is dedicated to the memory of Charles Rathbone Stark, whose 1927 publication entitled “The Aaron Stark Family, Seven Generations”, was the beginning of this journey into the past. His compilation of the descendants of Aaron Stark — an ambitious undertaking for 1927 — was instrumental to my research and contributed to much of the material to be presented. I further dedicate these pages to past and present Stark family researchers who contributed to this publication. May future Stark family researchers improve on these pages — already obsolete as they are being written — producing research of their own which will surpass these humble efforts to preserve the history of Aaron Stark and his descendants.

  • PECKHAM FAMILY of NEWPORT and WESTERLY, R
    GENFA.LOGY of ONE BRANCH OF THE PECKHAM FAMILY of NEWPORT AND WESTERLY, R. I. and its ALLIED FAMILIES Compiled in Affectionate Memory of :Emma Frances 7 (Peckham) Bentley by Her Sons William Perry and John Earle Bentley Documentary Evidence by :Emilie Sa.rter, Genealogist Boston, Mass. FOREWORD Genealogies are commonly written for sentimen­ tal reasons, and if sentiment were to prevail the name of' this booklet would be "Mother's Ancestors". As a practical matter, however, the title of a gene­ alogy should give some clue to its contents, there­ fore, I have decided that the title should be Genealogy of One Branch of' the Peckham Family of Newport and Westerly, R. I. and its Allied Families In the early part of the yea:r 1949 I happened to be looking through a Bible which had belonged to my mother, Emma Frances7 {Peckham) Bentley, and there found a :faded piece of writing paper upon which she had written "Mother 's Ancestors John A. Saunders Catherine Maxson John Maxson Sarah Sbrieve Daniel Shrieve Mary Green" She referred, of course, to the ancestors of' her own mother, my grandmother, Mary Ann6 (Saunders) (Saun­ ders) Peckham. This little memorandum made by my mother, no doubt for my brother, Fred Harold8 Bent­ ley, who worked out our Bentley lineage, was often on my mind. During the month of August, 1949, my wife and I spent our vacation at Shelter Harbor, a summer re- · sort on the Rhode Island shore, in the town of West­ erly, which was the home of' many of' my ancestors.

    Chapter IV Yearly springfield and longmeadow, massachusetts WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO BENJAMIN COOLEY PIONEER 'Write this for a memorial in a book." Exodus XVII: 14 Harry Andrew Wright Member American Antiquarian Society Generated for Ian Guido Huntington (New York University) on 2014-07-29 05:23 GMT / http://hdl.handle.net/2027/wu.89066037771 Public Domain, Google-digitized / http://www.hathitrust.org/access_use#pd-google CHAPTER IV EARLY SPRINGFIELD AND LONGMEADOW Harry Andrew Wright In the autumn of 1635, William Pynchon, with two scouts, John Cable and John Woodcock, sailed up the Connecticut river in their "great shallops"1 and con- cluded an exploring trip at the confluence of the Agawam and the Connecticut rivers, where, as related by Edward Johnson in 1654, they found a district "fitly seated for a beaver trade."2 It is quite possible that the scouts had viewed and chosen the land on a previous excursion and that Pynchon's visit was to give his final approval to the selection. Nothing contributed so much toward the lure for the exploration and settlement of North America as the quest for the beaver. Interest became quite pro- nounced early in the seventeenth century. Bartholo- mew Gosnold voyaged hither in 1602, trading inci- dentally for furs with the Indians. In 1603, Martin Pring coasted along the New England shore and re- ported seeing animals "whose furs may yield no small gain to us." In 1614, Captain John Smith, of Poca- hontas fame, reported that "With eight or nine others, ranging the coast in a small boat, we got for trifles, near eleven hundred beaver skins." English merchants, who financed various colonizing enterprises, urged the emigrants to devote their energies to such commercial activities, rather than to agriculture.

  • RIVERS, ENERGY, and the REMAKING of COLONIAL NEW ENGLAND by ZACHARY M
    FLOWING POWER: RIVERS, ENERGY, AND THE REMAKING OF COLONIAL NEW ENGLAND By ZACHARY M. BENNETT A dissertation submitted to the School of Graduate Studies Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in History Written under the direction of James Delbourgo And approved by New Brunswick, New Jersey May, 2019 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Flowing Power: Rivers, Energy, and the Remaking of Colonial New England by Zachary M. Bennett Dissertation Director: James Delbourgo This dissertation considers how river energy was a source of authority in colonial New England. The caloric, kinetic, and mechanical energy people derived from rivers was necessary for survival in New England’s forbidding environment. During the initial stages of colonization, both Europeans and Indians struggled to secure strategic positions on waterways because they were the only routes capable of accommodating trade from the coast to the interior. European and Native peoples came into conflict by the late seventeenth century as they overextended the resource base. Exerting dominion in the ensuing wars on New England’s frontiers was directly tied to securing strategic river spaces since the masters of these places determined the flow of communication and food for the surrounding territory. Following British military conquest, colonists aggressively dammed rivers to satisfy the energy demands of their growing population. These dams eviscerated fish runs, shunting access to waterpower away from Native Americans and yeoman farmers. The transformation of New England’s hydrology was a critical factor in the dispossession indigenous peoples before the Revolution and essential in laying the legal groundwork for the region’s industrial future.
