FOREWORD

This book will be valuable to all Miners, whether they spell their name Miner or Minor; whether their names are included or not. If not here, and they are members of the family, early ancestors can be found with diligence and, frankly, plain hard work. As the completion of the book neared, people still asked about it, and if they belonged to the family, and were their names included. Many such requests were answered and their lines definitely connected. In other cases the queries came too late and the time for securing the informa tion needed so short that we, regrettably, had to disappoint these people. However, in order to give them at least a base from which to oper ate, I have included many such lines as previously drawn through the Sidney H. Miner manuscript and others. It is left in their hands to develop further. Our name is spelled MINER or MINOR. In most cases this is from choice as determined by early ancestors. In others, it is what has descended to them from the past. This may be somewhat of a moot point, but it was a question which caused Thomas to "write home about." The answer he received makes it clear that the "miner" form is correct. In any event, the only reason I did not print the name as each line or branch is accustomed, is because of the obvious confusion which would result, and my proofreading would be interminable. I sincerely wish it could have been otherwise. Macauley put the matter of "ancestor hunting" into sharp perspec- tive: "A people which takes no pride in noble achievements of remote ancestors, will never achieve anything worthy to be remembered with pride by remote descendants." People in remote times have said much to us and if we have heard them at all, we have heard but dimly. A remote ancestor of mine, writing to his parents from the horror of the Civil War, made an observation which so many of us can echo today. In essence, our own "war" -- "the times" -- are really not much different when one thinks about it. Amos Luther Miner, writing in February 1863, said: "I often think of the wishes I used to wish when I was a little boy at home. When I have heard you and mother and old Jack Willson talking about the War of 1812. I used to wish that the United States would get in a fight so that I could have a chance to participate in it. Little did I think then that I should or that the war would be between ourselves. Now I wish not only but I hope and pray that this may shortly close ... "

PREFACE

"Thomas Miner was a prominent example of those men, who with their families, came to this country and fulfilled the purpose of time in creating in the new world a people of illimitable resources, jealous of personal rights, with brawny arms and fertile brain and with the unconquerable perseverance so characteristic of the pioneer settlers who attacked the forces of nature's wilderness that a nation might be built for the world to respect. 11 So noted the men who were responsible for the reprinting of Thomas' Diary, an important early history of his community covering the period from 1653 to 1684. Not unlike others covering the life of Thomas, they note that "Thomas came from Somersett County, Eng land, on the good ship Arbella, which landed at Salem, Massachusetts, the 14th day of June, 1630." Though there have been no records available anywhere to lend cre dence to these "facts'~ it can only be assumed that the many references Thomas made in his diary to the personal relationship he had with John Winthrop, Jr., led everyone to what must have been an obvious conclu sion. Over the years I, too, have conveniently "followed the leader." 11 1 Then came Banks' The Planters of The Commonwealth ~ a compila tion of the ships which carried passengers to the New World in those early days. The page in Banks' book which details this story is repro duced elsewhere in this book. In brief, he notes the following: 11 Lyon's Whelp, John Gibbs master. Sailed from Gravesend April 25, 1629, 'with about forty planters out of the Countyes of Dorset and Somerset', and arrived at Salem in the middle of July. She brought 1 6 fishermen from Dorchester'. 11 Last on the passenger list is "Thomas Minor, 22, of Chew Magna, County Somerset. -- Charlestown." Having, then, 11 discovered 11 the name of the ship which brought Thomas to these shores, I have chosen to highlight that fact by titling this book 11 THE LYON'S WHELPS". In using the plural form, I honor a 11 lion of a man11 and five of his sons. Thomas had to have been a man of more than average strength and determination to have endured the hardship of the Indian Wars in 1675 and 1676 when he was sixty-eight years old -- and to have continued the farm work into his seventy-sixty year. In the life of this man we have a prominent example of those men, who with their families, came to this country and fulfilled the purpose of time. These were our ancestors -- The Lyon's Whelps.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

Those who have developed material in the past ease the path for those who follow. To those earlier researchers, many of whom are now gone, I express deep appreciation. I acknowledge with gratitude the helpful efforts of the many Miners across the country who provided so much of the material which made this book possible. What might well have been an impossible burden of proofreading and indexing was made palatable through the untiring efforts of many, many friends and my immediate family. To be a "golf widow" is one thing; to lose a husband and father for months on end to a manuscript is something again. To my wife, Evelyn, and to my children, David and Candace, I express deepest thanks for their considerable assis tance but more, for their patience and gracious understanding.

DEDICATION

This book is dedicated to my late wife, Evelyn Payne Miner, whose untiring efforts and counsel made this publication possible.

THE ENGLISH BEGINNINGS

"MYNOR, MINOR OR MINER"

THE ENGLISH BEGINNINGS -- "MYNOR, MINOR OR MINER"

Thomas Miner, the pioneer of this name in America, asked a genealogical question not very much unlike those asked by his descend ants ten generations later. His main concern, however, was simple and on the face of it, uncomplicated--the correct spelling of his name. The question was a good one, as those of us who have read copies of early family deeds will agree. The name was variously spelled- - MYNOR, MINOR, MINER. For example, in April, 1654, Thomas pur chased a piece of land from a Cary Latham. The deed of transfer spells his name - MYNOR. Other deeds spell it - MINOR, or MINER. Six years before Thomas' death, this question became a matter for some discussion in the family. So far as Thomas was concerned, the answer could only come from "home." So in the year 1684, Thomas sent a letter to his place of birth, Chew Magna, requesting information as to the correct spelling of his surname and a copy of his coat of arms. More will be said later regarding Thomas. However, the material he received in response to his inquiry furnishes us with the only avail - able information as to the English beginnings of the family. The manu script, supplying the answer to Thomas' questions, on deposit today in the library of the Connecticut Historical Society, reads as follows:

"Edward the Third going to make warre against the French, took a progress through Somersett; and coming to Mendippi Calles Minerarij, Mindippe Hills in Somersett, where lived one Henry Miner, his name being taken both a denominatione loci et ab officio, who with all carefullness and loyalltie hav ing convened his domesticall and meniall servants, armed with battle axes, proffered himself and them to his master's service; making up a compleat hundred. Wherefore he had his coat armorial Gules (signifying Minius, red, another demonstration of the original surname) a Fesse (id est, singulum militare, because obtained by valour) betwixt three plates argent, another demonstration of the arms; for there could be no plates without mines. It is folly to suppose such a surname as Minor to have any coat of armes, it being con trary, yea contradictory, in termes - that Minors can obtain paternal coats or atchievements unlesse it be presupposed that Major was his father.

"This Henry died in the year 1359, leaving behind him Henry, Edward, Thomas, and George, Miners, of whom little is to be said, save only that Henry married one Henreta Hicks, (A) daughter to Edward Hicks of Glocester, of whom, as appears by the paling of their armes, are the Hicks of Bev erston Castle in Glocester descended; and had issue William and Henry. William married one Hobbs (B) of Wiltshire, and had issue Thomas and George. Henry, the 2nd son, served Richard the Second, anno 1384. In 1399, Thomas married one ------Gressleys (C) daughter of Cotton, in the Countie of Stafford, and had issue Lodovick, George and Mary. Lodovick married Anna Dyer, daughter. of Thomas Dyer (D) of Staughton in the com. Huntington, and 4

had issue - Thomas, borne 1436, and after that twins George and Arthure, who both served the House of Austria, the younger married (as Philippe Comines Relates) one Henretta De La Villa Odorosa.

"Thomas married Bridget, second daughter to Sir George Harvie (E) de St. Martins in Com. Middlesex, and died 1480, leaving his son William, and daughter Anna Miner, in tutor age to their mother Bridget, whom she resigned to her father, and turned to a monastericall life in Datford, where she remained during her life.

"William married Isabella Harcope (F) de Frolibay, and lived to revenge the death of the 2 young princes murdered in the Tower of London, upon their unhuman uncle Richard the 3rd. It was said of this William Miner that he was 'Flos Militae, 'the flower of Chevallrie. He left behind him 10 sons, William, George, Thomas, Robert, Nathaniel, and John; the rest are not recorded. The last 2 went over to Ireland, 1541, when King Henry the 8 was proclaimed I King of Ireland. Nathaniel maried one Fitzmaurice Neigh Cather lough, in the Province of Leinster in Ireland. John married to Joseline O'Bryan, daughter to Teig O'Bryan of Innis in the county of Clare; whose posteritie remains there, in the name of Miner, bearing the same coat. George married and lived in Shropshire. Thomas in Hereford. William, the eldest son, had issue - Clement and Elizabeth Miners, and was buried at Chew-Magna, the 23 day of February Anno Domini, 1585, and lies interred in the Priests Chancell, about four foot from the wall, with this inscription 'heir ( ) eth ( ) M. Myner ( ) of ( ) psh ( ) obiit xxiii febru' mdlxxxv: 'this and no more legible upon the stone, with the coat expressed in the margin, at this sign*, but by .~ c the records and registers of the said church, it is evident that his name was William Myner, 0 they both agreeing in the same date and plase, and must needs have been the head of the same family, as by the paternal coat clearly appears.

"Clement his son succeeded his father in heritage, and mar ried - and had issue Clement, Thomas, Elizabeth, and Mary Miners; and departed this life the 31 of March, 1640, and lyes interred in Chew Magna in the countie of Somersett. Clement the eldest brother married Sarah Pope (G) daughter of John Pope of Norton-Small-Reward, in the countie of Somersett, and had issue William and Israel. This Clement was buried at Burslingtown in the countie of Somersett. Thomas his brother is now alive at Stoningtown, in Carneticute Colloney, in New England, Anno Domini 1683, and has issue John, Thomas, Clement, Manassah, Ephraim, and Judah Miners, and two daughters Marie and Elizabeth. "William Miner, eldest son of Clement Miner, married Sarah, daughter of John Batting. (H) of Cliffon in Gloucester- 5

shire, and lives anno 1683, in Christmas Street in the City of Bristol!, and has issue William and Sarah Miners. Iseraell, the second son, married Elizabeth, daughter of Thomas Jones. (I) of Burslingtown in the countie of Somer sett, and has issue Clement, Thomas, Sarah, Jean, and Elizabeth Miners, Anno 1683."

The Manuscript adds the supposition that Henry Miner's name, prior to his service under King Edward III, was Bullman, but this is uncer tain.

THOMAS OF

CHARLESTOWN AND STONINGTON

THOMAS OF CHARLESTOWN AND STONINGTON

Thomas, our first American ancestor, was born at Chew Magna, Somerset County, England, on 23 April 1608. He embarked for these shores aboard the Lyon's Whelp, sailing from Gravesend April 25, 1629 and arrived at Salem in the middle of July. Shortly after his arrival, Thomas left Pequot Harbor (now Salem, Massachusetts) in the face of a serious outbreak of Typhus Fever, moving on to Watertown. This stay, too, was brief and Thomas moved on to Charlestown where in 1632 he became a founder of the First Church. His name was 34th on the roll. Two years later he was granted four acres of land at the Newtown (now Cambridge) line and in 1637, owned a ten-acre plot. On 3 April 1634, Thomas married GJ.tace Palmer, daughter of Walter Palmer, at Rehoboth, Massachusetts. In 1636 he moved once again, settling in Bingham where he remained until 1645, at which time he joined John Winthrop, Jr. 's colony of Massachusetts Puritans in the settlement of New London, Connecticut. He made his home here for a short period. Thomas made many references to Winthrop, Jr. in his diary and from these intimate comments, scattered throughout the diary, we know that these men were undoubtedly close companions. In 1649, Thomas was appointed "Military Sargeant in the towne of Pequett, 11 with power to call forth and train the male inhabitants. In 1650, Jonathan Brewster and Thomas Miner were made the first depu ties to the General Court (the Legislature) from Pequot. On 15 December 1651, Thomas was granted a small island near Mystic, Connecticut. His possession of it was contested and he sur rendered the grant. In 1652, he moved to Pawcatuck, now Stonington, becoming a co founder of the town with three associates: William Chesebrough, Thomas Stanton and his father-in-law, Walter Palmer. Thomas assisted in the organization of Wicketaquoc Cove, built a house there, and acted twice as a commissioner to deal with the Indians. Thomas bought some land at the neck east of Mason's property from Cary Latham -a.bout 1653. On 19 June 1655, he was granted two hundred acres by the Court, in Pequot, and in 1657 a grant was made jointly to Thomas and his son, Clement: "from Stony Brook easterly 108 pole joining his former grant, thence north one mile and 60 pole, thence east 108 pole to his son Clement's grant." At New London, Thomas had acted as Deputy in the Connecticut General Court, at the sessions of September, 1650, and May and Sep tember, 1651. He also served in Stonington as Deputy in May and October, 1665; October, 1667; October, 1670; October, 1672; May, 1677; May and October, 1679; May, 1680, and October, 1689. He was appointed chief military officer of the Mystic Trainband in July of 1665, though for a time he seems to have retained the title of Sergeant. During King Philip's war he served as a Lieutenaflt afld was referred to by that title in February and in April of 1676. In August, 1676, he was called Captain, but is usually mentioned in later years as Lieutenant. By Colonial appointment in May of 1649, he served as a magistrate, or justice, in the Town of New London, and in Stonington, October, 1664, and May, 1665. He also held various other positions of trust and 10

honor. In May, 1666, Thomas received a colonial grant of 100 acres, and in October, 1667, 50 acres more; such grants being made to those who had performed distinguished public service, Thomas died at Stonington, Connecticut, on 23 October 1690. He is buried in the graveyard near what was the location of his Stonington house and is said to have selected the granite boulder, lying above his grave, from his own fields. The inscription, nearly illegible now, reads: "here lyeth the body of Lieutenant Thomas Minor, aged 83 years. Departed 1690. 11 Nearby stands a monument commemorating his services to Stonington, together with his associates Chesebrough, Stanton and Palmer. Children of Thomas and Grace Palmer Miner were:

DESCENDANTS OF

JOHN MINER

DESCENDANTS OF JOHN MINER

The eldest son of Thomas and Grace was baptized 30 August 1635 in Charlestown, Massachusetts, and came to Nameaug with his father in 1646. He was a man of good talents; was in part educated by the Colony as a missionary and interpreter for the Indians in the many troubles and treaties with them. In the year 1658 he moved to Stratford where he married and raised a large family. He served ten years as Town Clerk and was a leading man in the community. A difference of religious opin ions arising in the church of which he was one of the deacons, he, with a number of others requested the General Court to grant them a tract of land where they might locate a new settlement. This was granted and they started to view "the promised land". Mistaking their way, they reached the hill country in the north part of the State andnot finding it what they wished, they became discouraged and began to retrace their way by another route. In their journeying, they accidently came upon an eminence which overlooked the very spot for which they were search ing; the valley where Woodbury now stands. The sight so pleased them after their fatiguing journey that Deacon John knelt down to return thanks to God, and in his prayer made a request that not a generation of his might live without being blessed with a deacon in the family. This company moved their families to the new settlement where they were joined by many others. Thus was commenced the settlement of the present town of Woodbury where a great many of the Miner descendants still reside. John was Town Clerk of Woodbury for about thirty years and its representative in the General Court for a period of about twenty years. William T. Minor, once Governor of the State of Connecticut, descended from this branch of the family. This John and many of his descendants spelled their name Minor. John had left home and estab lished his mode of spelling previous to the time his father received the copy of the grant of the name from England.

CLEMENT MINER

DESCENDANTS OF CLEMENT MINER

3. Lieutenant CLEMENT (THOMAS), the second son of Thomas and Grace Palmer Miner, was baptized in Hingham, Massachusetts 4 March 1637, and went to Nameaug (New London) in 1658 with his father's fam ily. When his father moved from New London to Quiambog and Togwonk in Stonington, Clement remained behind and became a permanent resi dent. He received a grant of land near to that of Walter Palmer's, whose land it abutted on the south. In September 1669, Clement applied for a house lot next to that of Grace Chappell. He was a very active man and held many public offices in the town. He was a Lieutenant in the Militia which was a considerable honor in his day. In the records of New London, Clement is mentioned as "Deacon" or "Ensign", but the record of his appointment as Ensign has not been found. In October, 1692, and in May, 1696, Clement served as a Deputyfor New London in the Connecticut General Court. On April 30, 1691, he joined the First Congregational Church at New London. It is thought that his election to the office of Deacon was soon after the death of Dea con Hough, August 10, 1683. Shortly after this date, the pastor, Rev. Mr. Bradstreet, died and this probably explains why no record of Clement's election to the Diaconate was made. At a town meeting on December 19, 1683, Clement and several others formed a committee to seek advise in securing a minister for the town to replace Rev. Bradstreet. Ensign Clement was one of those appointed to assign seats in the meeting house. Deacon Clement married, 1st, 26 November 1662, Frances Willey, widow of Isaac Willey, Jr., by whom he had five children. Frances died 6 January 1673, and he married, 2nd, Martha Wellman, 20 Febru ary 1677. She had one child, Martha died 15 July 1681; and he married 3rd, Johanna ----. who died 10 October 1700.

But if I have my 11 health is all I ask I want to do all I can for my boys. ••• 't want to know how many sheep I have and if there is anything hurd from my cow. It is quite a los for a poor man of in the army and have his cow stolen or lost. Oh well it is no use to cry for one cow or for spilt milk .... Well how is the election going with you this fall. I hope Lincoln will get your two votes this fall for he is the man.

Charles, it has been so warm here that fish have got sunstroke and com to the top of the water. You had better stay untill late in the fall. 11 Clement sent another letter to Charles from Suffolk, Va., June 1862: 11 ••• Charles C. has got shot through his foot. His gun was loded and it went off when he was asleep. Had it lying beside him. How it hapened is a mistry to all ..... Charles, the boys had som sport with a wench last night.

Perhaps there was two hundred looking at her. I did not go to see the dance but I could see them at a distance. 11 He wrote one of his brothers in 1863: "The soldier's Prayer - Our Father who art in Washington, Abraham Lincoln be thy name. Thy will be done in the south as it is in the north. Give us this day our daily rations of hard crackers and salt. Forgive us our short-comings as we forgive our comisaries and quarter-masters. For thine is the power over the soldiers for three years as during the war. 11 Clement wrote from Yorktown, Va.: "Wilbur Abare came near being shot - hapened to have his Bible in his side pocket.

When I have heard you and mother and old Jack Willson talking about the war of 1812, I used to wish that the United States would get in a fight so that I could have a chance to participate in it. Little did I think then that I ever should or that the war would be between ourselves. Now I wish not only but I hope and pray that this may shortly close ... 11 Amos wrote often to his family about army life, making much refer ence to sickness, deaths due to illness and fever, etc. There was a wide difference of opinion between several brothers regarding politics, especially with regard to the war. On 16 April 1863, Amos wrote to his brother, Charles, "I am sorry to tell you that brother Henry is about as near a Copper Head as he can be and I am pretty sure that brother Edwin is also.

Manassah Miner's Diary Excerpted

The men who arranged for the re-printing of Manassah' s Diary note in their Introduction to the volume "It is quite probable that after the death of Thomas in 1690, his son, Manassah, in reading over his father's diary covering so many facts in the early history of the com minity from 16~3 to 1684, may have considered it his duty to continue the record as long as possible.

11 That his purpose was to record such facts as he deemed essential in regard to the daily life on the farm, and to keep some record of marriages, births and deaths as they occured in the town, together with some conditions of weather, is mainly in evidence.

"His brevity may have been natural to the man, but it is quite likely that he had little time or inclination to express more than he felt was absolutely nessary, as evidenced by his brief line on June 21st, 1709, 1 'I went away with Indian Soldiers • He does not say whereto, nor enter into any details of the country travelled over, which must have been new to him, and shows his intention to keep his diary confined to home affairs. He merely writes, . 'September the last I came home,' and then takes up the daily record as before. His 'Brumpy Skipt' is a good illus tration of his terseness."

It is therefore agreed by the saide townsmen joyntly that these eleven men whose names are written one the other syqe, (with the advice of Pastor and Teacher desired in any case of conscience), shall entreat of all such business as shall concerne the Townsmen, the choise of officers. excepted, and what they or the greater part of them shall conclude of the rest of the towne willingly to submit unto as their owne proper act, and these 11 to continue in this employment for one year next ensuing the date hereof being dated this: 10th of February 1634 (1635). 11 In witness of this agreement we whose names are under written have set o'r hands.

THOMAS MINOR (From Diary of Manasseh Minor, pages 11-19)

Thomas Minor, the father of Manasseh Minor, wys born at Chew Magna, Somerset County, England, April 23, 1608. He came to Massachusetts, arriving at Salem and settled at Charlestown, where we find our first record of him in this country in Frothingham' s History of Charlestown. 2 In this same book there is a copy in facsimile of an "order" in imitation of the original proceeding on board the Mayflower. 3 It is dated "this 10th of February 1634 (1635)11 and of the thirty-three signatures we find that of Thomas Minor. 4 He was made a freeman March 4, 1633-4 5 and on April 23, 1634, 6 he married Grace, daugh ter of Walter Palmer of Charlestown. Wheeler writes in his History of the first Congregational Church. 7 In 1634 the younger John Winthrop formed a company and removed with them to Saybrook (Conn.); with them came our Thomas Minor, In 1643 Winthrop made a move to form a settlement at Nameaug or Pequot (now New London, Conn.) and among his associates was Thomas Minor. In 1645 the settlement of that place was actually commenced, but it is not probable that Mr. Miner moved his family there before 1646. 8 There is probably no more reliable history than that by Miss Frances Manwaring Caulkins of New London, published in 1895, completed by her in 1860. 9 She makes frequent reference to Thomas Minor in the early years of this struggling community, but does not state from whence he came. We have not found any proof that Thomas Minor was at Saybrook from 1634 to the time he appeared at Pequot or New London in 1645. Wheeler in his History of Stonington gives the birth of several of his children as at Charlestown and at Hingham, Mass. lO, without naming his authority, but it is fair to him to conclude that from the manner in which it is stated he got his facts from town records of the places mentioned, which would not indicate that he lived for any length of time at Say brook. He may have been there with the-men from Massachusetts Bay 11 when Mason led his valorous army of eighty white men from Saybrook and conquered the Pequot Indians at the fort on the west bank of the Mystic River on May 26, 1637, and have returned to Massachu setts. There is no proof of such a condition of facts at hand at this time. Miss Caulkins gives clear statements as to Thomas Minor at New London 12 until he sells his p\ace there October 15, 1652, and then says. "The next year we find him east of the Mystic, where he bought Latham's Neck (see deed dated April 4, 1654) and in December had a town grant "joining his father's land (father-in-law Walter Palmer) at Pockatuck upon the norward side of the path that goes to Mr. Stan ton's. 11 13 321

As he gave possession of his New London home in October, 1652, it is fair to assume from the various land transactions that he moved to Stonington that same month and year. His diary as published covers the years from 1653 to 1684, but if any one has seen this remarkable little book, now without covers, and will consider that as it was pub lished over two hundred years after his death, is it not likely that several years earlier writing by his own hand are lost. His statements are very brief, covering a rrionth in a few lines. His first published month, November, 1653, and the next month, December of the same year, indicate clearly his home life in Stonington. In February 1653 (54) he had 11 9 peeces to hew." In March, 1654, the 7, "I made an end of hewing of timber", and in April, "Monday the 10 I began at the farm at Mistuksuck (Quimbaug). In reading these dates it is well to remem ber that at that time the year began with March as "The first month. " Here at his own home, in the log house built by his own labor, with the help of his growing sons, this man lived with his wife until late in 1690 (Oct. 23) he passed on. We are told that his wife died in the same month, but there seems to be no record of the da~ of her death, The monument in the Wequetequock burial ground may give proper expres sion to this one of the four first settlers of the town of Stonington, but the most touching of all in that old consecrated ground is the stone over the grave of Thomas Minor, a piece of broken ledge said to be taken by his own selection from his own farm, of about the length of a man's body, with rudely cut letters, evidently done by one of his sons, with this inscription: "Here lyeth-ye body of Lieut. Thomas Minor departed 1690 age 83, 11 It is thought that the small upright stone next to his own grave was placed there for his wife, Grace Palmer. It evidently has been broken, as there is little of it above ground and without inscription, that part in the interval of years having disappeared. Here in this town as one of its founders he labored for the good of his own kin, of his neighbors and the whole community. He helped to organize the first church and served it well. In his diary, p. 207, he writes - This 24 of April 1669 I Thomas Minor am by my own accounts six~y-one years ould, I was by the Towne and this yeare chosen to be a selectman the Townes Treasurer, the Townes Recorder, the brander of horses, by the General Courte Recorded the head officer of the whole Countie, and chossen and sworn Commissioner and one to assist in keeping the Countie Courte. In 1675 came the greatest indian uprising of the Colonial period which we will give more in detail later in this book. Although Thomas Minor was in his sixty-eighth year, he joined with all of the able-bodied men of the town and took part in the great swamp fight at Narragansett in R. I. on Dec. 19. Several of his sons, if not all, were there also. In his diary he writes: "From the 8 of december to the 8 of ffebruarie I was Imployed in the Countrie service about the Indian Warr besides 8 days in the sumer hors and man and my white horse Ten days being prest for John Gallup," John Gallup was among the slain in this fight. After it there was terrible suffering because of the cold and the deep snow following the day after the fight as the men were struggling to their homes. We have no record to show when the second house was built at the Quiambaug homestead, but from entries in Manasseh Minor's diary it was likely in the early years of his occupancy of the farm and a few feet only from the first house. The third house, built in 1830, also 322

very near its predecessor, is now occupied by the owner of the farm, Corneilius Vanderbilt Minor. The farm, originally one mile or more in length on the west side of Quiambaug Cove, has by subdivisions to sons become reduced from several hundred acres to about forty at this time, and for the whole period of two hundred and sixty-one years and over, has without change of family name, been the Miner farm, a record equalled by few homes in New England. It is not our purpose to exalt either Thomas Minor or his son Manas - seh over the other early settlers of Stonington. The four first settlers, William Cheesebrough, Thomas Minor, Thomas Stanton and Walter Palmer, with George Denison, the greatest Indian fighter after John Mason, John Gallup, and later the Wheelers, Williams, York, Main, Fanning, Hallan, and others, labored for one purpose, to found a town, to have homes for their families, their children and their descendants. They apparently had at times some personal differences, but they were bound by the circumstances of their lives to be united in their aim to establish law and order. The educational advantages were of necessity meagre, and we must acknowledge that they did very well and thoroughly whatever was required in business ways. The interval of two hundred years has made as much advancement in educational conditions as in travel. It was like the latter, gradual improvement, each generation having more than the last one.

Wheeler's History of Stonington, published in 1900 with geneaolgies - Under Miner family he gives the children of Thomas Minor with birth or baptism dates of the five oldest sons born in Mass,, 1636- 1644, four of them baptized in Hingham in the period covered by the statement that Thomas Minor was of Saybrook, Conn, It would seem proper to state here that as a preface to the descendants of Thomas Minor, Wheeler gives his ancestry, beginning with Henry Minor, who died in England in 1359, and continues to Thomas, born in 1608, but he does not give his authority. He evidently had seen the published copy of it prepared by Trumbull the historian and printed in Vol. XIII of the New England Genealogical Register in 1859, wherein on pages 161-164 is in full the article referred to. The original was written in England in 1683 and sent to Thomas Minor. It was handed down from father to son of the Minor or Miner name, those remaining at the homestead farm at Quiambaug, until in 184 7 Deacon Asa Miner placed it with the Connecticut His - torical Society at Hartford for preservation. In any event, two generations are left out by Wheeler before we come to Thomas, b. 1608, Not a very distressing matter unless you compare the orig inal with Wheeler. Through the courtesy of the Connecticut His- · torical Society this es·say in 1914 was copied in facsimile by Mrs. Louise P. Bates of Oak Lawn, R. I. One copy is now loaned to the New London County Historical Society. It was after the receipt of this original paper, or, as he calls it, "letter", that Thomas 11 Minor in "the 16 of May, 1683 , gives in his diary the list of his children and their children.

Thomas Minor, one of the first settlers of Pequot, was one of the first to remove to that part of the plantation called Pawkatuck. His homestead at the head of Close Cove was one of the best tene ments in the place. The bill of sale mentions house, barn, fences, orchard, yard, apple and pear trees, and gooseberry trees. Minor reserved the privilege of removing a part of the fruit trees. Price 50 pounds and possession the 15 October 1652. p. 102, In the preamble to a grant of land to Wm. Chesebrough confirmed Jan'y 8, 1651-2 by Pequot, "We Hugh Calkin and Thomas Minor have bounded out 300 acres more or less" for "Wm. Chesebrough and his two sons Samuel and Nathaniel." p. 101. Between Captain Mason's farm (Mason's Island) and Chese brough were several necks of land extending into the sound and separated by creeks. The neck east of Mason was allotted to Cary Latham, who in a short time sold it to Thomas Minor, p. 98. 1652 on April 5 the townsmen made a grant of three hundred acres at Powkatuck lying east and southeast of Cheesebrough' s land to Hon. John Haynes, then Governor of the Colony. The grantee sold it to Walter Palmer of Rehobeth. The contract was witnessed by Thomas Minor and his son John, possession given July 15, 1653. The price one hundred pounds "in such cattle, mares, oxen, and cows" as Mr. Haynes should select out of Palmer's stock, and ten pounds to be paid next year. p. 102. Wheeler in his Stonington, p. 4 and 5, states that Thomas Minor in 1652, "came to this place and took up a tract of land east of and adjoining the Wequetequock Cove, and during that year and in;the next erected a house thereon, which is more at large hereinafter described." He then states the Haynes purchase but dates it as 30 June, 1652, and that Walter Palmer bought this Haynes tract, "but before he took his deed he found it covered and embraced the house and land of Thomas Minor. So he and the Governor entered into a written agreement that Palmer should give a hundred pounds for the place and such cattle as Mr. Haynes should select out of Pal mer's stock. This contract recognized the title to the house and lands occupied by Mr. Miner and was dated July 15, 1653. Mr. Miner was selected to put Mr. Palmer in possession, reserving the right to occupy his said house until he could build another at Mistuxet, now Quiambaug. "

13. Continuing Miss Caulkins - "1665 June 19 - Thomas Minor hath given him by consent of the courte held at Pequot and by the towns men of Pequot 200 acres in a place called Togwourcke, bounded on the south with the foot path that runs from the head of Mistick river to Pockatuck wading place and by Cheesebrough' s land." p. 102. 1657 Granted to Thomas Minor, and his son Clement, from Stonybrook easterly, 108 pole joining his former grant - thence north one mile and sixty pole - thence east 108 pole to his son Clement's grant - Clement's land to run on an easterly line from this to Walter Palmer's land, whose land bounds it south. p. 102. 325

THE MINORS PERSONALLY (Diary of Manasseh Minor, pages 180 - 185)

In reading of the daily life of these early settlers we have often thought what did they look like? Were they big men physically? There were no photographs at that date. The Daguerreotype process was invented in France in 1839. Prior to that great invention people of large means could engage an artist to paint the family portraits, while the plain farmer would consider it a great thing to have a travelling genius cut the silhouettes of his wife and daughters and frame them, properly labelled, beside their handiwork, the handiwork, the famous samplers. Of these first early settlers of Stonington there is very little to indicate their personal appearance. It has been claimed by the descendents of Walter Palmer that he was nearly seven feet in height. Of William Cheesebrough, we know little in that particular. Nor of Thomas Stanton; all were vigorous men. Thomas ;tV[inor must have been a man of more than the average strength to have endured the hardship of the Indiai::t Wars in 1675 and 1676 when he was sixty-eight years old, and to have continued the farm work mentioned in his diary in his seventy-sixth year. We will take one incident he mentions in his diary - "The 8 of July 1663 Samuel Cheesbrough came to my house and brought an Execution of 2,2s. I denied to deliver him anything or to show him anything and tould him that he should Carrie nothing of Myne out of the house if I could well help it and that I did not owne him to be a Constable to me at this time." There had been a dispute between the Massachusetts Bay Colony and that of Connecticut as to the dividing line between them, both claiming Southertowne or as it is now Stonington. Thomas Minor evidently sided with the Winthrops of New London in loyalty to Connecticut, while George Denison and some others favored Massachusetts. This execu tion was quite likely an incident of the dispute. It was dated "This 30th day of June 1663" and signed "By the Court George denison Clerke. 11 It is significant, the difference in time between the 30th of June and the 8th of July. We can imagine on this July day, a big, brawny man, standing in the doorway of his log house with bare head, neck, chest, and arms and a plentiful supply of hair, left arm akimbo with hand on his hip and his right arm raised with hand flat against the doorway, as he looked out with a set jaw at young Cheesbrough and said "he should carrie nothing of myne out of the house if I could well help it", and we can feel pretty confident he could help it and that Cheesbrough knew better than to attempt any force. They were all good friends soon after ward. We commend the wording of this statement in regard to the "execution" as written by Thomas Minor to the able jurists of our day from Stonington and elsewhere and respectfully ask them to prove their better educational advantages and legal ability by taking from it any word, or words, that impair its strength and proper expression, or, if they can, to make its purpose more clear by an additional word. That his son Manasseh was also a pretty capable person when strength was required we may judge from some entries in his diary where he writes under the dates following: 1700 Apraill 5. I prest men. 326

1700 Apraill 6, We took seased & caryed to the Gouvnor Thomas Malit & 4 other men. 1701 Febrewary 17, I went to Gordg Denisons for to seas men, 11 19, I seased davis and his men and went with them to New London, 11 21, I came home again We can have some confidence that once his hand was on them they were "seased", On Apraill 22, 1702, he writes "Chois of deputys & Samuel Minor killed six wolves, 11 This Samuel Minor we think was son of Manasseh's brother Ephraim, born in 1681 and living at Taugwonk, for his mention of "Chois of dep utys" would indicate a gathering of the townsmen, where he would likely meet his brother and sons and learn any news of the day. We do not think it was his own son Samuel, who was born Sept. 20, 1675, because it was his habit to write of his own sons giving their Christian names, only, while to others beyond the family he gave full names, 1708 Sept. 28 (he writes) "hunting a bare & I sewed wheat." He does not say who hunted the bear and we can see the calmness of mind of an industrious man who could "sew wheat" while his sons and neighbors were gunning for a bear in the swamp or over the hill to the northwest of his wheat field, but that night after the chores were over and all seated around the log fire the father's hunting blood was roused and next day he too joined the hunt. Sept. 29, "We kild a bare a buk & a racoon & Cap, Avery Cam hear. 11 This was some day's sport and taken with the kill ing of six wolves by young Samuel Minor would have "delighted" our greatest hunter of today, only he would have taken much more space in telling of it, He mentions his "long gun", as evidently he had several, and though there is much in the diaries of these men, father and son, to indicate that they were not by nature quarrelsome, we can feel assured that when roused as they were in the Indian wars of 1675 and 1676 they would use those long guns to every possible advantage in the defense of their homes and put lead in any Indian who showed fight with the same determination as shown by young Samuel Minor when he killed six wolves in one day. We should make some mention of the brothers of Manasseh Minor. Clement, living in New London, whom he very likely saw frequently, and who for that reason is not often mentioned, served in the Narragan - sett Indian wars from New London; Ephraim, living at Taugwonk, served in the Indian wars and led his company in 1704, May 25, "Ephraim went away with his men, 11 He does not say when they returned, but in August, "Ephraim went with the new suply of soldiers to dearfild", and Sept. 1, "Ephraim came home," Colonial history describes the Deerfield massacre as the most hor rible of all that occurred, John Minor, the oldest brother, when quite young was chosen with the son of Thomas Stanton to be educated at the Colony's expense to be able to preach to the Indians, Neither of these young men followed that calling long, John Minor first settled in Strat ford, then moved to Woodbury, and in both places he was visited by his father and brothers from Stonington, Cothern' s history of Woodbury, Volume I, page 58, states: "First among the settlers, men of note in Woodbury, and foremost in all difficult undertakings, was John Minor, an interpreter to the 327

Indians, a justice of the quorum among the magistrates, a captain in the militia and a deacon in the church, He was also surveyor. All of the Indian deeds in the region were executed before him from his being able to act as interpreter. He was town clerk of Stratford for ten years from 1666, with the exception of one year, and held the same office in Woodbury for thirty years from its beginning. He was also for twenty years almost always a member of the General Court, held an influen tial position there and was frequently appointed on committees, He died Sept. 17, 1719, age 85, and was buried in the s~0uthwest part of the ancient burial ground, but no stone remains to mark the spot. " His daughter, Grace Minor, married Samuel Grant and from this marriage Judge Wheeler in his "Stonington", traces the line to General U. S. Grant. Samuel, Manasseh's youngest brother, who was born in 1652, died in 1682, It would appear from the entries in his father's diary that (1682 June), "Thursday 22, Samuel went to Hartford with the Canoow and thursday the 29 Samuel came whome ffrom Coneitcut it was verie wet." Later he writes in reference to Samuel in July Saterday the 22, "I came ffrom Mr. Withrels the 14 day of Same sickness" - evidently it was fever or pneumonia; the date of his death is not written by his father, His brothers Clement and Manasseh from New London are mentioned in reference to farm work and on August 9 "Clement & Man asseh went whome. I was at mill Manaseth had Sams hat." It must have been a sorrowful household, the bride of the previous December left a widow and the hope of the father's and mother's old age taken from them. Samuel Minor served in the swamp fight of Dec. 19, 167 5, and during the various forays of the next year he was an active partici: parit as his father writes at various times. 11 1676 June Thursday the 15 we were to meet all the souldiers at Steveen Richardsons house. Sabath the 18 the Souldiers came whome to Stoneingtone, Saterday 24 Midsummer day Samµel came whome from the Armie, Tusday 27 Samuel went for Interpreter to the Arme the second time, July Wensday the 5 day Samuell came whom from the Armie sick, The 8 day was s·aterday, Capt. Denison was heare, The 22 saterday I ffetched whome the prisnors from the Queenstowne. Our son John was heare the 23 day; the Armie marched of from Mach antuckset. " They were all men of force and decision and we think the expression used in reference to John, the oldest son, "foremost in all difficult undertakings", one of the greatest compliments that can be paid any man or to men of any family. The men who can follow a leader are legion, but those who are willing and have the capacity and the courage to lead are few and rare indeed, 328

THE INDIAN WARS (Diary of Manasseh Minor, pages 172 - 179)

The year 1675 brought with it the gloom and terror of an Indian war, the greatest indian uprising of the Colonial period. After nearly forty years of quiet following the vindictive struggles with' the Pequots, the whole country was terror struck with the news that a widespread com bination of Wampanoags. Narragansetts, and other tribes had been formed with the design and desperate hope of exterminating the white race from the land. Suddenly. before any effectual measures of defense had been concerted, Phillip, with his fierce hoarde of warriors, burst out of the dark cloud like a thunderbolt. Connecticut, as well as the neighboring colonies, lay exposed to an immediate assault. Her eastern frontier was open to the Narragan setts; Norwich and Stonington were particularly in danger. Within her limits were bands of Indians, who might perhaps be induced to join the enemy, and one of these bands, the Mohegans, was at no time more powerful than at this juncture. Patronized by the Masons, and having his frontier protected by Norwich, Uncas had been for fifteen years increasing in numbers and strength. This wary Sachem kept his neigh bors for some time in doubt which party he would join in the contest. Messrs, Wetherell and Avery made him a visit on the 28th of June, to ascertain. if possible, how he stood affected to Phillip's designs and returned apprehensive that he was leagued with the enemy. In Mr. Wetherell' s letter to the Governor he says. 11 We have reason to believe that most of his men are gone that way, for he hath very few men at' home. 'Tis certain he hath lately had a ~reat correspondence with Phillip, and many presents have passed. ' On Sunday, June 24th, the first overt act of hostility was committed by Phillip. Several houses were burned and men slaughtered at Swan sey. It does not appear that the news reached New London till June 29th, when it was brought by a messenger on his way to Hartford, dis - patched by Mr. Stanton to carry the fearful tidings to the governor. Mr. Wetherell wrote urgently to Governor Winthrop, June 29th and 30th, for assistance. 11 lt is reported Philip is very near us and expects further assistance from Uncas. We have great reason to believe there is an universal combination of the Indians. and fear you cannot aid us timely. We are calling in all our outlivers. and shall by God's assist ance, do our best for our defense, but hope that your Honor, with the rest of the honorable Council, will despatch present supplies for our aid.'' Major John Winthrop, the highest military commander in the county, was then dangerously ill, and this was calculated to increase the panic of the three eastern towns. The council of war immediately despatched forty men to their aid, and Captain Wait Winthrop, being authorized to act, both as a military commander and a commissioner. raised a con siderable force, and marched directly into the Indian territory, Here he met troops and commissioners sent from Massachusetts, and assisted in concluding a treaty with the Narragansetts. which quieted for a time the alarm of the eastern towns. The Mohegans, after some little hesitation, and the Pequots and Nahantics, with acceptable readi ness. joined the English; and both eventually performed essential service. During the summer the principal seat of the war was in the 329

interior of Massachusetts, and the towns on the Connecticut River were the sufferers. But as winter approached, the hostile Indians concen trated their forces in the Narragansett territory, in dangerous proximity to the Connecticut frontier. The military regulations enforced by the. General Court in October were of a stern and vigorous cast, and embodied in terms of anxious solemnity. They were in fact equivalent to putting the whole Colony under the ban of martial law. The most important enactments were these: Sixty soldiers to be raised in every county; the Pequots to be assigned to the charge of Captain Avery, ano. the Mohegans to Captain Mason; places of defense and refuge to be immediately fortified in every plantation; neglect of orders in time of assault to be punished by death; no provisions allowed to be carried out of the colony without special license, and no male between fourteen and seventy suffered to leave the colony without special permission from the Council or from four assistants, under penalty of 100 pounds. New London, Norwich and Stonington were all partially fortified and a constant guard was maintained. In the belfries of the meeting houses, and on the high hills, watchmen were kept on the lookout, with sentry boxes erected for their accommodations. An army was raised of one thousand men. The proporation of Connecticut was three hundred and fifteen, who were placed under the command of Major Robert Treat, of Milford, and ordered to rendezvous at New London. The troops began to collect the latter part of November. New London County raised seventy men under Captain John Mason, of Norwich, beside Pequots and Mohegans under Captain Gallop. Of the seventy men, Norwich contributed eighteen; New London, Stonington and Lyme forty; Saybrook, eight; Killingworth, four. The whole force was to be at New London December 10th. Great exertions were made to obtain the requisite quantity of provisions and all of the apparatus of war. Indians were to be fitted with caps and stockings. At len~ there was an impressment of beef, pork, corn and rum, horses and carts, and the army marched. These troops, forming a junction with those of the other colonies, were engaged in the fearful swamp fight at Narra gansett, December 19, 1675. A complete victory was here obtained over the savage foe, but at great expense of life on both sides •. The number of Indians killed on the side of the enemy was estimated at nearly a thousand. Of the English army, two hundred were killed and wounded, of whom eighty were of the Connecticut line - a large pro po:rtion out of three hundred and fifteen, The loss sustained by the friendly Indians (if any) is not included in this number. The Mohegans in this fight were under the command of Captain John Gallop, of Stonington, who was among the slain, Captain Avery had charge of the Pequots. Captain John Mason, of Norwich, received a wound with which he languished till the next September, and then died. In January, 1675-6, another army of one thousand men was raised. The Connecticut quota was again three hundred and fifteen; their leader Major Treat, and their rendezvous New London. They began their march on the 26th passed through Stonington into the Narragansett country, and from thence northwesterly into the Nipmuch region, clearing away the Indi ans in their course, but meeting with no opportunity to strike a heavy blow. Uncas himself accompanied this expedition. In May the General Court authorized the enlistment of three hundrsd and fifty men, as a 330

standing army. to be in readiness for service. This force, under the command of Major John Talcott, was almost immediately ordered into the field. Norwich at this time being designated as the gathering place, The number of Indian auxiliaries engaged at this time was unusually large. Major Talcott left Norwich June 2d, and entering the wilderness, marched directly toward the upper towns on Connecticut River, where the opportune arrival of so large a force is supposed to have saved Had ley from Indian devastation. Captain George Denison had charge of the company raised in New London County. This army returned to Con necticut about June 10th, having scoured the country far up the river, but met with very few of the enemy. The Council of War ordered a coat to be given to every Indian out on this long march "in regard (they observe) the service was tedious and little or no plunder gained. 11 After a few days refreshment, this spirited army again entered the hostile districts, and, marching first to the northwest of Providence, then turning to the southeast, explored the necks and forests down to Point Judith. From thence they returned through the Narragansetts, Magnus, the old queen or sunk squaw, was slain, and in two engagements, two hundred and thirty-eight Indians were slain or captured. Major Talcott' s little army, after a short dispersion and rest, was ordered to reassemble at New London on the 18th of July. They marched again, about the 20th, and made their way this time into the very heart of Plymouth Colony. July 31 they were at Taunton. From thence they returned homeward, but hearing that a large party of Indi ans, who were taking their flight westward into the wilderness, had committed some depredations on cattle and corn near Westfield, they immediately took the route thither, and pursuing the trail of the now forlorn and famished savages, they had a sharp and final struggle with them. beyond the Housatonick, on the route to Albany. The troops· then returned to Connecticut and on the 18th of August were ordered by the Council to repair to their respective counties and disband their men. Phillip had been hunted down and slain (August 12th) by the Plymouth men and the war was at an end. Returning to. an early period of the contest, we find that in February 1675-6, commenced that series of forays into the Indian territory which issuing at short intervals from New London County, and led by those noted Indian fighters, Denison and Avery, contributed in no small de gree to the favorable result. These soldiers, Pequots, Mohegans and Nahanticks - disorderly among themselves, but condensed against the foe, the Indians usually double the number of the whites and more use - ful as scouts and plunderers than in direct attack. It was in the third of these roving excursions, begun March 28th and ended April 10th, 1676, that the brave Narragansett chieftain, Canon chet, was taken prisoner. This was one of the great exploits of the war. The unfortunate captive was brought to Stonington, and there put to death, after the Indian mode of execution, being shot by Owaneco and two Pequot Sachems, the nearest to his own rank among his conquer ors. This was done by the captors, without any waiting for advice, or reference to superior authority. The Indians taken in arms during this war were generally executed. As far as these warriors were con cerned, it was a war of extermination. Quarter was seldom conceded, and death followed close upon capture and submission. This was the 331

customary and legalized mode of proceeding in war with savages, and regarded as the only safe course, the dictate of stern necessity. The women and children were saved, and either amalgamated with the Mohegans or distributed among the English for servants. The signal service performed by these partisan bands is thus acknowledged by Hubbard, the early historian of the Indian wars: "The inhabitants of New London, Norwich and Stonington, appre hensive of their danger, by reason of their near bordering of the enemy, and upon other prudent considerations, voluntarily listed them selves under some able gentlemen and resolute soldiers among them selves, Major Palmes, Captain George Denison, Captain Avery, with whom, or under whom, within the compass of 1676, they made ten or more several expeditions, in all of which, at those several times, they killed and took two hundred and thirty-nine of the enemy, by the help and assistance of the Pequots, Mohegans, and a few friendly Narragan setts; besides thirty taken in their long march homeward; after the fort fight, December 19, 1675; and besides sixteen captivated in the second expedition not reckoned in the compass of .the said ·number; together with fifty guns and spoiling the enemy of an hundred bushels of corn. " In most instances the soldiers retained the booty and the captives that they brought home. Captain Denison was the most conspicuous soldier of New London County. Captains Avery and Minor were also prominent in these excursions. Major Palmes, though active in the forwarding department, took the field but once, and that was in one of the flitting inroads into the Narragansett territory.

My Dear Brother

It seems to me that I have been a long time in writing you that long letter that I promised to write to you long ago and even now that I have commenced, I don1 t know that I will be able to write a very long one. Jotie has gone out to visit one of the neighbors who had a death in their family yesterday and I am watching baby sleep until she gets back and so while I am watching and waiting. I will employ the time i14.,writing I am very glad, Willie, to see that you are improving in your letter writing and I am perfectly astonished to hear of your ave .irdupois, I don't think I weigh over·150. Well now, Willie, I don't understand why you want to go to Lowell to work in a mill, for at $1.00 per day unless it is that you want to leave the business which I don't suppose you do and now I will tell you what I think-- while you were staying right along with your Uncle, I did not want to make any suggestions to you about leaving, first be cause they have been very good and kind to you and second, that, I think that it is a great benefit for you to know how to run a farm, whether you continue to work on one all your life or not. I have often wished that I knew how to run one but I don1 t know anything about it and I am too old to learn now but I think when a man owns a good farm and knows how to work it and has it well stocked and paid for that he is pretty independent and so you see while you have been learning the art or science of farming, I think you have been acquiring useful knowledge that may be of great benefit to you in after life. but now you seem to have made up your mind to try something else for while at any rate. I don't know whether you intend staying at Lowell during the 'IV'inter months only, or whether you intend to stay longer -- but in either case, don't you think it would be better for you to come and see Jotie and the children, to say nothing about myself and if you want to employ the time while you are here, whether you only stay for the winter months or for a longer period. Can you put to work in my carpenter shop. here at Lafayette, board you at home and you can attend night school and if you are as big and strong as your weight would indicate and half as smart as you was when you was here before, I think I can pay you about $2.00 or $2.50 a day and you can stay as long or as short as you please. 334

Now, I want you to write and tell me what you think of this -- if you want to come, you may just as well pick your things up and come right along, that is if your Uncle and Auntie are willing and in case you should, I ,will enclose your pass from Toledo to Lafayette and if you don't come, you can put the pass in the fire. Well Jotie has got back again and relieved me of my responsibility, for the present and so I will bid you good by for the present and wishing to see or hear from you soon and with best regards to your Uncle and Aunt

Yours affectionately, J. B. Mitchell.

WILLIAM HENRY MINER

William Henry Miner, manufacturer, was born in Juneau, Wis., Oct. 22, 1862, son of William Henry and Martha (Clapp) Miner and grandson of Clement S. Miner and Lydia (Dominy) Miner. His father was a carpenter. Left an orphan at an early age, William H. Miner was taken to Chazy, N. Y., in 1871 to live with his uncle, John Miner, and there he attended the one-room district school and worked on the farm, In 1880, at the age of eighteen, he went to Lafayette, Ind., and secured employment with the Wabash Railway Co. as a machine shop apprentice. Two years later he went to Minneapolis, Minn., where he served as an apprentice with the Prey Manufacturing Co. During this time he attended a business college at night and later studied engineer ing at the University of Minnesota. He returned to the Wabash Railway at Lafayette in 1886 as chief draftsman in the bridge and building department, and was then successively at the Lafayette Car Works as chief draftsman, and the Lima (Ohio) Car Works in charge of estimat ing and mechanical details and later as manager. In 1888 he went to the Michigan Peninsular Car Works of Detroit in charge of its finishing department. In 1890 he accepted an opening at the Michigan Car Works Detroit, as assistant to the general manager, continuing in that posi tion until 1891. In Detroit he had become acquainted with officials of the Hutchins Refrigerator Car Co. which was pioneering in the use of the refrigerator cars owned by the California Fruit Transportation co·. for transporting fruit from California to New York and the East. Miner was offered the position of mechanical superintendent of the latter company in charge of the operation and maintenance of its equip ment. The Company also worked up a large business shipping fruit to Europe in refrigerator rooms in White Star Line steamships, and in 1892 he made a trip to England to inspect the condition of the fruit on unloading. Meanwhile, the California Fruit Transportation Co. was having draft gear failures on its cars, which resulted in heavy damage claims for fruit spoilage en route. Miner spent much time working on a device to overcome the difficulties and in 1891 was granted a patent on a spring draft rigging (U. S. Pat. No. 461,443). With the success of the device, he established his own company in 1897 as W. H. Miner, 335

Inc,, in 1923 and he served as its president until the close of his life. By 1898 the Miner tandem draft rigging was in use on 15,000 cars owned by sixteen railroads and private car lines. The business in creased and, as heavier railway service developed, he turned to designing a friction draft gear (U. S. Pat. No. 754,670) in 1904, to meet the requirements of more modern freight cars and locomotives. The company also furnished power hand brakes, roller side bearings, safety locking pins, and door fasteners for refrigerator cars and for truck and trailer bodies. Other than his own business Miner was a director of the American Telephone & Telegraph Co., Western Elec tric Co., Equitable Life Assurance Society of New York, and the Illinois Bell Telephone Co. He was also chairman of the board of Pratt & Letchworth Co,, Buffalo, N. Y. Philanthropically active, Miner in 1915 gave his first public gift, $50,000 for the erection of an addition to the Art Institute of Chicago, and the building was named Gunsaulus Hall. In 1916 he built the Chazy (N. Y.) Central Rural School at a cost of $2,000,000. Through its erection the consolidation of eleven one-room rural schools was effected and afforded to the children of the commun ity all the educational advantages of the best city school system. It consisted of forty-four rooms for grade and high school, an auditorium, library, two gymnasiums, two swimming pools, and rooms for special courses in household arts, and other studies. He also built a residence for the teachers, modern in all details, and arranged for a fleet· of nine buses for the transportation of children living at a distance, The Phys icians Hospital, Plattsburgh, N. Y ., erected by Miner and his wife at a cost of $4,000,000 was completed and opened Jan. 1, 1926. The build ing, in the shape of a Greek cross, had four wings, 212 rooms, and a capacity for sixty-eight additional beds, Of Georgian style architecture, it had seven stories in each wing and ten stories in the center tower, and contained two operating rooms with observation amphitheaters and every facility known to the field of medicine, Miner belonged to the American Biscon Society, National Association of Audubon Societies, New England Historic Genealogical Society, Wisconsin Society of Chi cago, Art Institute of Chicago, Field Museum of Natural History, American Museum of Natural History, Missouri Athletic Club, National Arts Club, Bankers Club of America, The Attic, Mid-Day, South Shore Country Club of Washington, D. C., the Railroad, Jonathan Metropoli tan, and St. James Clubs of New York City, and the Mason order (Knight Templar, Shriner). His religious affiliation was with the Cen tral Church, Chicago. Politically he was a Republican. His special interest was Heart's Delight Farm, Chazy, which was the original homestead of his paternal grandfather who settled there in 1820. In 1903 Miner began developing the original 150 acres and at his death he had enlarged it to include 13,000 acres of model farm, Other than the breeding of pure-bred stock, the farm maintained a trout hatchery and a wild animal preserve on which were kept deer and bison and other North American wildlife. He was married in Chicago, Jan. 10, 1895 to Alice Trainer and had a son William Henry (died in infancy). His death occurred in Plattsburgh, N. Y. April 3, 1930.
