Village by CHARLES HENRY PRESTON Descendants of Roger Preston of Ipswich and Salem Village By CHARLES HENRY PRESTON Salem, Massachusetts THE ESSEX INSTITUTE 1931 [Reprinted from the Historical Collections of the Essex Institute, Volumes LXI-LXVII.] Salem, Massachusetts NEWCOMB & GAUSS CO., Printm 1 9 3 1 ROGER PRESTON'S LEASE OF THE DOWNING FARM IN SALEM INTRODUCTORY NOTE This volume of the genealogy of the descendants of Roger Preston, who settled in Ipswich, Tufassachusetts, in 1635 or soon after, is the result of more than twenty years research and correspondence, and gives a fairly complete account of his descendants bearing the name of Preston, and many allied families. The work has been greatly complicated, especially in the earlier generations, by the fact that several other Prestons were in New England very early, and the descendants of each have covered much of the same territory. A William Preston settled first in Dorchester, Massa­ chusetts, in 1635, thence went to New Haven, Connecti­ cut, in 1639. He had a son Daniel who remained in Dorchester. William Preston had many descendants, and a genealogy of one branch of this family was published in 1896 by E. R. Wilcox. Cothren's History of Wood­ bury, Conn., also has an account of this family. A short genealogy of Daniel Preston's descendants appeared in the New England Historic Genealogical Register, Vol. 14, page 26. The compiler of this volume has much material concerning the family of William Preston and Daniel Preston which has never been published. There was a John Presson or Presbury in Saco, Maine, as early as 1675. He had a son William Presson iu Beverly, Massachusetts, in 1690. Most of the descendants of William now spell the name Preston, and they are widely scattered in New England and elsewhere. A John Preston who served in King Philip's War in 1676, was in Hadley, Massachusetts, as early as 1678, when his marriage is recorded there. No connection has been established between John Preston and Roger Preston, though it is possible that they were related. There are manv descendants. There was a Samuel Preston in Wilmington, Massa­ chusetts as early as 17 42. His descendants have been traced, but it is not a large family. (i) 11 DESCENDANTS OF ROGER PRESTON There was a William Preston in Poultney, Vermont, going there from Connecticut, probably from Litchfield. He was born in 1715 and was probably a descendant of '\Villiam Preston of New Haven, but that is not proven. There were a few other scattered Preston families in New England, having no known connection with any of the lines already mentioned, but doubtless belonging to one or the other of them . .. A.. number of Prestons settled in colonies outside of New England : among them, John Preston, who came from Londonderry, Ireland, in 1740, and settled in Vir­ gmrn. Several accounts have been published concerning this distinguished family, most of the descendants being in the Southern states. Philip Preston was the head of another Southern Pres­ ton family; he settled in Bedford County, Virginia, and a good account of this family appears in a book entitled, "Preston Family Genealogy," by William B. Preston. A William Preston settled in Pennsylvania early in the eighteenth century, and has left many descendants. The compiler of this volume of the genealogy of the descendants of Roger Preston has confined this work solely to an accurate and complete account of Roger Pres­ ton's descendants. Some search has been made to ascertain the English ancestry of Roger Preston, but nothing has yet been found to indicate where he was born or lived previous to his taking the oath of allegiance, in the parish of St. Alphage in London in 1635, just previous to his sailing for New England. The Preston name is very common on the records of that period, and the name Roger Preston is not uncommon. A more systematic search may prove more successful. I am greatly indebted to the many who have so kindly furnished material for this genealogy. It would be im­ possible to mention them all by name here, but I wish to acknowledge my great obligation to all who have in any way helped and encouraged me in the undertaking. C.H. P.

ROGER PRESTON was one of the many who came to .America from England in the year 163,5. The only record found of him in England is the following: "Port of London, 8 April 1635. Theis parties here­ under mentioned are to be transported to New England imbarqued in the Elizabeth of London, Wm. Stagg master bound thither; they have taken oath of allegiance and supremacy, per certificate from St. Alphage, Cripple­ gate the minister thereof.

Robert Farrands Thomas Smith." Nothing has been found on the records to show where Roger Preston lived for the four years following his com­ ing to New England, but he probably went directly to Ipswich, Mass., as we :find he owned a house and lot and a "planting Iott" there in lo39, as shown by this record from the Ipswich town records: "Granted to William Holdred an house lott an half an acre of ground lying on the south side of the towne River having an house lott of Daniel Rovey's on tha Northeast and a house Iott of Roger Preston's on the southwest; also six acres of planting ground lying on Sagamore Hill having six acres of the lyke ground of Daniel Hovey's on the West and a planting Iott of Roger Preston's on the East to enjoy the said Landes to him his heirs and assigns forever. Entered this 9th day of Aprill 1639." The William Holdred mentioned in this record is un­ doubtedly the same William Holdred who came to New ( 1) 2 DESCENDANTS OF ROGER PRESTON England in the "Elizabeth of London" in 1635, with Roger Preston, and who took the oath of allegiance at the same time. There are very few other references to Roger Preston on the Ipswich town records. The following appears in October, 1643: ":Mr. Browne his note of such as have forfeited for not returning their Powder according to an order of the Towne. ( among others) Roger Presson £1." In 1648 we find the following: "It is therefore ordered that henceforth the seaven men shall yearly in November put the said sum of 24£-7s into a rate pportioning it upon the Inhabitants having also respect unto the bill of subscription of the Towne :from yeare to yeare to be levyed and colected by the Con­ stables and payd unto the sayd Major Denison on the 10th of December yearly soe long as he shall continue to be leader of this companye. "Voted by the Towne at the generall meeting above­ mentioned. "A list of the names of those that did subscribe their names to allow unto 11:ajor Denison these severall sumes yearly while he continued to be our Leader. ( among others) Roger Preston 3s" The next record is the following: "The 10th of October 1653. "Reckoned with the cow-keepers for the North syde of the River and the cowes come to 3s y head Bulls and all. Roger Preston 3s" In 1656: "The Selectmen having considered the severall families of this Town and their employments have accordinge to the order of Court assessed them spinners as is under­ written for the year ensuing. Roger Preston 3 quarters 67½ li." In "Old Homes of Ipswich," published at the time of the Ipswich celebration, is this statement: "On the opposite side of the river from the Howard house is an ancient and interesting residence. It was built with another which once stood by its side by Robert OF IPSWICH AND SALEM VILLAGE 3 Wallis, and sold by him to Roger Preston whose wife's name was Martha." In 1658 Roger Preston sold his holdings in Ipswich and removed to Salem in 1660, as recorded in the Essex Registry of Deeds: Be it known to all men whom it may concern that I Roger Preston of Ipswich in New England in the county of Essex: planter, and Martha my wife for divers considerations me thereunto moving but especially in consideration of the full and ju»t sum of one and fifty pounds of current country pay to be paid to me or my assigns at two several payments. viz: thirty pounds at Christide next following the date of these presents and the remainder by that time twelve months in current English corn sweet dry and merchantable by Reginald Foster of Ipswich aforsd. husbandman all that my dwelling house and house lot with the barns, cow-houses and other buildings thereunto belonging and also my other house lot, both which house lots contain two acres, more or less with the gardens orchards and fences and other privileges there'u:nto belonging which I purchased of Robert Wallis of Ipswich afore­ said as they be situated and inclosed on the north side of the river of Ipswich having the highway next the river toward the South and Thomas Knowlton's land and Robert Pierce's toward the North.

    THE LIMITS TO INFLUENCE: THE CLUB OF ROME AND CANADA, 1968 TO 1988 by JASON LEMOINE CHURCHILL A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2006 © Jason Lemoine Churchill, 2006 Declaration AUTHOR'S DECLARATION FOR ELECTRONIC SUBMISSION OF A THESIS I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract This dissertation is about influence which is defined as the ability to move ideas forward within, and in some cases across, organizations. More specifically it is about an extraordinary organization called the Club of Rome (COR), who became advocates of the idea of greater use of systems analysis in the development of policy. The systems approach to policy required rational, holistic and long-range thinking. It was an approach that attracted the attention of Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau. Commonality of interests and concerns united the disparate members of the COR and allowed that organization to develop an influential presence within Canada during Trudeau’s time in office from 1968 to 1984. The story of the COR in Canada is extended beyond the end of the Trudeau era to explain how the key elements that had allowed the organization and its Canadian Association (CACOR) to develop an influential presence quickly dissipated in the post- 1984 era. The key reasons for decline were time and circumstance as the COR/CACOR membership aged, contacts were lost, and there was a political paradigm shift that was antithetical to COR/CACOR ideas.

During this period the Canadian government forced the military away from its traditional ally the United Kingdom and moved it closer to the United States (US). The Canadian governments of Lester B. Pearson, Pierre Elliott Trudeau, and Brian Mulroney attempted to create and retain a distinctive military with a truly ‘Canadian’ organization and with new Canadian military traditions. However, in the process of attempting to create a distinctive ‘Canadian’ military, all three of these governments moved the Canadian Forces (CF) closer towards the US military. While US defence and government officials welcomed an increased defence cooperation between Ottawa and Washington, they were often not responsible for the burgeoning ties between the US and Canadian armed forces. Moving the CF closer towards their American counterparts enabled Ottawa to keep its defence budget relatively stable without any drastic increases because of the promise of support from the larger US military. More importantly, this movement towards the US enabled all three prime ministers to continuously assure Washington of Canada’s abilities to help defend North America and participate in the cooperative NATO defence of Western Europe.

  • The Defence Research Board of Canada, 1947 to 1977
    The Defence Research Board of Canada, 1947 to 1977 by Jonathan Turner A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Institute for the History and Philosophy of Science and Technology University of Toronto © Copyright by Jonathan Turner 2012 The Defence Research Board of Canada, 1947 to 1977 Jonathan Turner Doctor of Philosophy Institute for the History and Philosophy of Science and Technology University of Toronto 2012 Abstract The Defence Research Board of Canada existed from 1947 to 1977. It was created because of the successful contribution of scientific management and specific military technologies to victory in the Second World War, and it was dismantled during a period of review and renewal of the government’s science and defence policies. The demise of the Defence Research Board demonstrated the triumph of business and public administration models over scientific management in spite of the successful defence research program. Among the successful projects of the Defence Research Board were satellites, research rockets, hydrofoils, nylon pile clothing, the wind chill factor, the strategic distinction between first and second nuclear strikes, open heart surgery, and blast trials. The strengths of the Defence Research Board were the scientific management practices that united the four Chairmen (Omond Solandt, Hartley Zimmerman, Robert Uffen and Léon L’Heureux) and the bench scientists. Over the course of its existence the Defence Research Board was shaped by six chains of events. 1. Solandt’s ability to recruit veterans from 1947 to 1953, 2. The election of John Diefenbaker and the ensuing conflict between Diefenbaker and civil servants, particularly over nuclear weapons, which led to the Royal Commission on ii Government Organisation and a decade of review of national defence policy (including two White Papers, integration and unification, and the Management Review Group), 3.

  • Flexibility in the Federal System? Institutional Innovation and Indigenous Nations’ Self-Determination in the US and Canadian Far North
    Flexibility in the Federal System? Institutional Innovation and Indigenous Nations’ Self-Determination in the US and Canadian Far North by Adrienne M. Davidson A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Political Science University of Toronto © Copyright by Adrienne Davidson, 2018 Flexibility in the Federal System? Institutional Innovation and Indigenous Nations’ Self Determination in the US and Canadian Far North Adrienne M. Davidson Doctor of Philosophy Department of Political Science University of Toronto 2018 Abstract Since the early 1970s, Indigenous nations in northern Canada and the United States have secured a heightened level of governing autonomy through the creation of new institutions of self- and shared-rule. While much attention has been devoted to the political factors that allowed for development of these institutions, and their operation within the federal governance framework, this thesis argues that these new institutions have important political implications that have, as yet, been largely unexplored. The settlement of modern land claim agreements, beginning in the 1970s, was a response by the United States and Canadian federal governments to Indigenous demands for self-determination. The decision to settle modern land claim agreements marked a move away from the dominant policy paradigm of assimilation, and into a new paradigm that recognized Indigenous goals for economic self-determination, and which is increasingly responsive to Indigenous demands
