Introduction.

At the outset it must be understood that anything original is disclaimed; scissors and copying-pad have been used so freely on everything pertaining to the subject that a printed list of references would considerably increase the size and cost of the book; church, grave-stone, probate court, vital town records in Mass., and a large part of New England have been searched to secure Sprague data.; and lastly no attempt has ever before been made (so far as I know) to publish a Genea­ logy of Ralph. Colonisl iromir;rants by our name came from England, and twelve years ago while in London I made an attempt at the Somerset House to procure material concerning their progenitors for an introductory chapter to this volume. Ex­ orbitant charges precluded satisfactory results and research "·orkwas abandoned. It has already been alleged that Hol- - land was the cradle of the Sprague family; that they were "·eavers there and so oppressed by the stiff duties imposed on their products, they emigrated to England in the 15th or 16th century. Records of the family have been found to reach back to the 14th century, the name being spelled in a. variety of forms however. Sir Edward Spragge, Admiral of the Blue, who "·as drovn1ed during an engagement "ith Cornelius Van Tromp of the Dutch Navy off the con.st of Holland Aug. 11, 1673, wa..i;; son of Captain Litchfield Spragge of the English Army and grandson of Captain John Spra.gge, an Army officer in Queen Elizabeth's time. He "·as knighted by Charles II on his ship Triumph Jul. 1, 1665 and his Coat of Arms ''reproduced is gule, a fess between three trefoils. Crest out of a na.vs.l cro",i, a demi-lion crowned". The above dates being con­ temporaneous with the lives of the Sprague boys who came to the New World negative a direct relationship and our title to the Sir Edward Coat of Arms. It bas been well kno",i for 6 THE RALPH SPRAGUE GE!-.~OGY. some yea.rs that the ,\ill of Edward Spr?,gue of Upway had 1 been handed down to us through the f mnily of lu.Jph , but not until recently has it become so well known that the Sir Hugh Sprague Coat of ..i\.rms bad been preserv.ed and equally prized by the Wtlliam1 family. .Among the early immigrants, whose descendants have become very numerous "·as Francis Sprague who arrived in Plymouth, Ma.ss., Jul. 1623 in the ship Ann. The descen­ dants of Nicholn..s Sprake or Sprague who settled in Billereca, Ma.ss. about li20, have become today a very large family. Ralph, Richard and William crune to Salem, ~Iass. in 1628. William settled in Hingham, Mass. raised n. large family of children and his descendants today are numerous and ·widely scattered. · Richard had no children. Ralph, our forefather, settled in Malden, 1\-Isss., where he brought up a large family. Three of his sons had children and their descendants ha.Ye been traced out generation after generation to the present, as indicated by the charts or family trees on f ollomng pages. These charts not alone serve to quickly run ones line back through the several generations to Ralph's father Edward of England, but to show by the names in italics that a consider­ able number of men are yet to be accounted for before the wotk can b;: entirely complete. Some of these perhaps brought up families in neighboring or distant states, many doubtless died -without issue, ms.king the genealogy more nearly complete than the charts indicate. More might be done but slow progress would be e.'\.~ected and I take leave of this very pleasant work not through lack of interest in it but time required to pursue it. While the early records of this compilation do not correspond with some others in every particular, let it be remembered discrepances are not easily reconciled. No name has been introduced but what h3S been approved by some one, and I 3.m pleased to mention my indebtedness to W. F. Bucknam of Stoneham, Mass., for records of the several children in the 2nd, 3d, a.nd 4th genera- !NTROD'OCTION. 7 tions not mentioned by others. For the invaluable and un­ remitting favours of Dr. W. V. Sprague of Chauncey, Ohio, who recently published the genealogies of Francis, William and Nicholas Sprague I am under special obligations, as well as to my father John H. for the material concerning the 5 descendants of J onathan , the pioneer of our Vermont branch of Spragues. A vast amount of material has been contributed by Finney Sprague of Dayton, 0., F. W. Sprague of Brookline, ~lass., and Rev. C. C. Carpenter of Andover, Mass. Most every family of the present generation here furnished some­ thing, and to all I e.'\9tend my thanks for their assistance which was so essential and cheerfully given. EDWARD G. ·sPRAGUE.

EDWARD SPRAGUE, father of RALPH, lived in Upway (Upwey), Dorsetsbire, England, a small hamlet sit­ uated midway between Dorchester and ,v eymouth the sea­ port, four miles from either town and at the foot of the Ridgway Hill where the river Way takes its rise. He was a fuller by trade, and it is claimed that his fulling mill of 300 years ago (shown in cut) has been but recently demolished. He pos­ sessed considerable property for his time, as his will and inventory show. That he was a man of quality, the preamble to his will bears testimony. Reference therein is made to the yard of the church shown on opposite page. Upway town records have been destroyed l?Y fire since bis time, so that many things of primary interest are unobtainable. The original will of Edward, made .Jun. 6, 299 years ago and probated Oct. 13, 1614, a few days after his death, requesting Ralph to "promise that his mother CHRISTIANA shall quietly enjoy the said lh-:ing until he shall be one and twenty years of age", (memorand p. 14) has been handed down, in fine preservation with writing distinct, to the present genera­ 3 tion through Ralph1, John~\ Edward , William", Joseph\ 6 ,vmiam , etc. (p. 92). Of no less interest is it that the Sprague Coat of Arms should have been handed down to us through his 1 3 4 other son William to '\Villiam.2, .J onathan , Benjamin , 7 Ephraim\ Holmes°, Caleb , CharlesR and is now in the pos­ session of Charles F.0 of Lyne) l\fass. This ancient painting, ".;th card attached describing the Crest, though cracked and faded by time is still quite well preserved. The '\\;dow Christiana married John Corbin of U pway.

Joan \Varrcn in Fordington, St. George Church, Dorchester, Dorset County, England August 15, 1623; came to Snlem, !\'In..-;~., in 1628 with his two brothers, Richard and \Villiam, his wife and two little boys, John and Richn.rd. Whether actuated by desires for religious liberty or by hopes of gain there is some controversy. With several other:,, they journeyed twelve miles to a hill on the north side of the Chn.rlcs River, and on the south n.nd southeast slope they made a settlement in 1628, building their homes ins. semi-circle on the two acres of land Governor Endicott grtlllted to ea.ch of them. This settlement, called Charlestown, wn.s with­ in the present city limits of Boston. Here they found one solitary white mn.n. Thomas ,v elforcl, an Englishman, living in n. pallisadoed house upon their arrival. This territory wn....; owned and occupied by the :\•{agsachu~ctts Indi!tns, n.. powerful but friendly tribe, ,,;th Sagamore John a,; Sa.chem, who gu.vc them permission to settle. \Vhethcr the Sprn.gues ca.me to Americn. in the Abigail or the Lion'.r; Whelp is imma­ terial hut their u.rrh·a.l has been convincingly shown by the Hon. H. H. Sprague, to be in 1628. The following spring l\Ir. Bright, a minister and l\!r. Graves, an engineer, '\\ith :i. hundred others. joined them. September 28, 1630, Ralph wns one of a jury imp~1nelcd. Thi~ ,Yn.s the first jury in :i\:Iassnchu­ setts. In his short life offorty-scven years he was u. very prom­ inent mn.n. On October HJ. 1630. he ma.de requisition to be ad-. mitted a~ a. Freeman of the Colony, n.nd took the Frecmn.n's oath liuy 1S, 1631. At General Court this month he was mn.dc constable and beca.mc in regular succession, sergeant, ensign, lieutenant and captn.in of militia. !\:Iny 18, 1631, he was admitted n. Frcemu.n. October 14, 1632, he and his wife were dil'\missed from the "Congrcga.tion of Boston" (25) 26 TIIE RALPH SPRAGUE GENEOLOGY. to enter into n. new body at Charlestown. In 1634 was made one of the first selectmen of Charlestown. In 1\iin.y, 1635 was Representative, and frequently afterwards, 1636-1638, 1644-1645. In 1639, he been.me a member of Artillery Company. Nine years from the settlement in Charlestown, Rn.lph n.nd Richard owned large tracts of land on the opposite side of Mystic River, near Ell Pond, which they called "Pond Feilde." This W!t.S in the west pn.rt of l\iin.lden, now Melrose. Ralph had ninety acres, and Rich!l.l'd, sixty acres. At Ralph's death, he bequeathed his homestead, and its farm, to his sons, John and Phineas, and his farm in "Pond Fcilde" to his sons Richard and Srunuel. His home wns located near what is now 1\1:ountain Avenue. By a letter dated March 25, 1651, one John Corbin of Upwey, England, appears to have been Ralph's fothcr-in-1::t.w. A copy of this letter is to be found in the N. E. H. and G. Reg. IV 289. In Lochford's Note Book a.re several leg:il papers and letters of 1638-9 from Ralph Sprague and Joan his wife wherein it is expressly stated that her father had died and that his name wns Richard Warren, so that instead of John Corbin being her father, he had prob­ ably married her mother, the ";dow \Varren. Besides the N. E. H. and G. Reg. much information can be obtained from the Bradford's History of Massachusetts, The Young's Chron­ icles and Hutchinson's History of Massachusetts, Frothing­ ham's History of Charlestown and from the "Glimpse of the Beginning of the Massachusetts Bay Settlement" by H. H. Sprague, et. al. The Charlestmvn Land Records, page 53, describes (1638) twelve different pieces of real estate in Rn.lph's possession. His homestead consisting of one acre of ·,iearable land-- with a dwelling house U.1Jon it and other aptina.nces" was situated at the east of the common, butting south and west upon the highway, hn.ving Mystic River on the northeast. Ralph Sprague, sometime of Fordington, Dorset, fuller, afterwards of Charlestown, N. E., planter, and his ~ife, Joan, dau. of Richard Warren of Fordington, husbandman, sent in 8-9-1638 power of attorney to \Vm. FIRST GENERATION. 27

Derby of Dorchester, England, gentleman to demand and receive such portion as might come to them from W nrren's estntc and remit the snmc through Sprngue's sister Alice (Sprague) En.mes of Pomberry Mill near Dorchester, and a. letter 1'-·ns sent the same day by Ralph to his sister Alice

about this same matter. In August, 16401 Ralph, and his W!fe, Joan, made John Holland of Tinekleton, Dorset, fuller, an attorney to receive of John Co..x of Bowlington, and Eliza­ beth his "ife, executors of Richard Warren, deceased, seven pounds given by his "ill to said Joan and her children John, Jonathan, Richard, Samuel, Mnry, Phineas, or any other sum due unto them. (Ref.-N. E. H. and G. Reg. LI 1897 105.) He d. in September, 1650, at the age of 47, in Malden, Mass., which has been the home of some of his descendents during all -0f these 250 years.

which is claimed to be the first building- in this vicinitv~ to be built by this method.

Vt., where with his wife, Asenath had twelve children, nine of whom arrived to maturity :md had families of their own. His business for m:iny years WAS freighting country produce to Boston, lVIass., and bringing to Vermont such goods as the- merchants sold their customers, for this was before the days of railroads. He was a very devout m;in :ind "·as a deacon in the Free Will Baptist church and he wo.s much sought :ifter on the occasion of religious revivals in his own and adjacent communities. I take this sketch from Cleve­ ls.nd' s Genealogy: "In a family in an adjoining town were two brothers, Billings and Willis Hovey. Billings was not s. professor of religion, but his ~1fe was a pious lady, there being a great interest felt in the community on tlie subject of religion, eYening meetings were frequently held, and Polly be­ ing very an.~ous for her husband had arrruiged ";th a. younger member of the family to stay at home and care for the children, that Billings might accompany her on this evening to a. meeting at Uncle Samuel's; thist Billings declined; and she went ~1thout him, praying as she ,Yent. Aftcr she had gone Billings concluded to go privately as it ,vas now dark. He and Willis, ·who had also absented himself from the meetings crept silently into an adjoining room to listen to the exercises. K ow there were among the praying brethren "G ncle Samuel Hovey and Deacon Edw:l.l'd Sprague who were csp~.:ially gifted in prayer (an eccentric per~on ~a.id when they pray the blessings shell right do""Il) and on this evening their petitions seemed more solemn n.nd wei~hty than usu:tl. Before their pr!l.yers were finished-Behold! the door opened and Billings and Wil~is walked into the room, fdl on their knees, ncknowlcdged their sins, begged for and obtained pardon for their sins." I remember well ,vhen q uitc a small boy attending the evening meetings in my grandfather's home; there were but few chair~ in the house, so wooden sap tubs ,verc brought into the old long kitchen and rough bon.rd8 ·were laid upon them for seating the worshippers. 'fhe room '\\"!LS heated by an old stone fireplace which ul:so furnished the light for the occ!l.~ion, ~upplemcnted by a few SIXTH GENERATION. 9i tallow candles. Grandfnther Sprague led the . meeting and though his education had been limited there was a deep pathos in his invocations that impress me with a feeling of awe and reverence after more than two-thirds of a century have passed away.

It is but simple justice 120 THE RALPH SPRAGUE GENEALOGY. to sn.y that Mr. Sprague enjoyed in an eminent degree not only the confidence of his own government but of all citizens of other governments with whom he had official intercourse. Possessing a handsome fortune he was enabled to bestow a generous hospitality on such of •his own countrymen whom business or pleasure may have called to visit the Mediterranean. His hospitality was proverbial, bis mansion was ever open to receive them. Although absent from his native land about forty years he still took a deep interest in its welfare, and gladly manifested that interest on all suitable occasions. Many of his countrymen have partaken of his bounty and received from him such advice and assistance as is always most welcome when journeying in foreign lands. To the numerous officers of our navy who have from time to time visited Gibraltar, !v!r. Sprague was particularly attentive and kind. They, as well as many other American citi:r.ens scattered all over our oountl')", would bear ,villing testimony to the kindness of his heart, his generous hospitality and his devoted attachment to the land of his birth. This feeling became almost a passion. Tulany of th~ oldest officers of the navy knew him as a true and cherished friend. Mr. Sprague was a man of high moral character.· During an active business life which extended to almost half a century, no single act of dishonor could ever attach to his good name. He was the very soul of honor; his good name he valued above riches or all worldly honors, and thus loved and respected surrounded by a happy family circle, this upright merchant and most exemplary man was model to the growing generation. His memory "ill always be cherished as among the pleasant things of the past.

In 1825 was elected mem­ ber of the board of trustees of the village; in 1827 chosen its president and re-elected four successive years. In village politics he had long been a beneficent influence, and it was in large measure due to his efforts that the city of Brooklyn obtained its charter in 1833. He inaugurated the street­ cleaning system in spite of ridicule. As democrat of the Jack­ son school was candidate of that party for mayor in 1843 and re-elected in 1844. During his first term the whig members of the common council refused to attend meetings and he had them arrested on the charge of misdemeanor in neglect of public business and compelled their obedience. His earnest advocating consolidation resulted in the union of Williams­ burg and Bush\\:ick with Brooklyn. Repeatedly a member of the board of supervisors as late as 1851.

He was a highly respected farmer and ca.ttle dealer, a man of refined taste and gentlemanly manner so strict with his children they became impressed that it was as much of a sin to steal a pin as a dollar. He used to say ''pay to the cent, expect to the cent, and then if anything is left, give as judgment directs." He wn.s a close bot~nical scholar, able to name all kinds of vegetation. His father lost his entire property by signing a note for a friend, when Avery was eight years old. The fam­ ily saw quite a struggle, but l\'.Ir. Sprague being an excellent far­ mer, after improving a place for a year or so would sell it to some profit and lived on· no less than ten different farms before Avery became of age. Avery purchased with his older brother J oscph, the farm known as Sprague place in Bernards­ ton, lVIass. The pn.rtnership e,-."'tended for thirteen years and Lysauder bought out Joseph's interests. This partnership continued 35 years. Avery worked out by the month for fourteen years on big lumber and railroad construction jobs, then began lumbering and traded in working cattle. After working horses took place of oxen he lived a more quiet life, loaning his gains on real estate. At one time saved the col­ lapse of a bank by his shrewdness. In politics, liberal; in religion a. Universalist. His death occurred Oct. 8th, 1886, in Greenfield. m. Sophia Arms Newton, dau. of Obed and Jenni.ma (.Allen) Ne,,-tonin Vernon, Vt., by LymanP.

In early· life was a 1\1:ethodist but later became a member of the First Unitarian Society. He was very peculiar in his manners but. a very generous hearted man, and it was his custom for years to leave with the grocer a sum of money to be given as he should see fit to the deserving poor.

One remark which he used so frequently that it be­ came a b:yv.-ord was "'Vell, there's a thousand things to every thing, and you can't always tell." Was a man of money and had enough to accommodate the many who in those days were looking for small loans. ,vhen a man came in whom he did not want to accommodate and yet did not want to turn away, (one of his pockets he called "the world") he would slap that pocket with his hand and say, "I'd be glad to accommodate you but there's not a dollar in this world that I can lay my hands on." In walking he carried his head drooping dmYn on one side looking at the ground. Someone one day said to him "l\.Ir. Sprague, why do you always hang your head down when you walk'?" He answered speaking slowly and delib­ erately, "Did you ever go through a field of wheat"?" "Yes." "Well, when you went through the field you noticed that some, P1-:TJ-:R THACHEU SPJtAG CE, 1702.

Commenced his adventuresome life at ten years of age by working in a general store and post­ office. In 1855 went to St. Louis and ran up the Missouri River to St. Joe, 600 miles, by boat as express messenger. It took two ""eeks to make a round trip, as the current was so strong insurn.nce companies obliged them to tie up to the bank night times on returning. This was before railroads were built there. In 1858 he became cashier for E. E. Bryant of Bement, Platt County, Ill., who carried on a general merchandise business. In 1863 began mercantile business on his o"~ hook on the Wabash R. R. at Milmine, being post­ master with commission signed by Abraham Lincoln. In 1865 be went to New Orleans on a business trip and on landing was obliged to take oath of allegience, register at the city office and stand draft. Although fortunate in not being drafted he was obliged to get a permit when he left the city. Finding the captain of the boat "Sultana" which sailed that day out of humor, he took the ne.'\."t boat "·hich left on the following day. In this he was fortunate for a. little above Memphis they came up to the "Sultana," blown up and sunk, with only her Jack­ staff sticking out of the water, ,,;th 1,850 of the 2,350 prisoners from Andersonville prison, which she had taken aboard at Vicksburg, carried down with her; m.

EIGHTH GENERATION. 205 in Jun. 21, 1861 and he held the position until his death o.t Fair Oaks." (Quoting from burial sermon.) "The 10th, after a quick muster at Camp Brightwood near W a.shington, was moved to the Peninsula and in the first battle in which it was engaged, at Fair Oaks, on the last day of May, 1862, Capt. Day was killed at the head of his company. He received three bullet wounds, one of them fatal. One was received after he had received the fatal one and had been laid on a stretcher to be taken from the field." He was buried on the field and si.~ months later disinterred and brought home to be lo.id among the familiar scenes of home and kindred. His going out was manly, noble and generous. He went con• scientiously and from a sense of duty. He conducted himself as became his office and position. He was a wise, faithful, useful and bravesoldier. Hed. asasoldier would v.ish to die if the ·appointed time had come, with his armor on amid the din and roar of battle. The fatal bullet pierced him as he stood facing the foe. In 1870, the comrades formed a post ~nd named it Capt. Edwin Day Post, G. A. R., and in 1885 the W.R. C. also honored him bycommemoratinghisname,vhen they organized a.n au.-tllary.
