Allerton for 1 8 8 8 his publication of , but simply to add facts which have been found since that time , and to correct errors which almost invariably occur in Genealogies through incorrect family records thought to be r true when published , but afterward found othe wise .

1 8 8 8 . S. In the preface to the edition Of Mr Walter Allerton says , in part :

o f to Pride ancestry is common all ages and all peoples , and it is an entirely proper and j ustifiable sentiment . We know that man , like

th e ff other animals , possesses power to transmit to his o spring the mental and physical characteristics that have been most prominent in f himself . Students o social science tell us that the children Of crim in als are apt to prove criminals themselves , and other things being

Wh o equal , the man can trace his descent through a dozen generations o f honest men is for that very reason more likely to prove himself an honest man . The history o f the Allerton family is a strong proof o f the endur ing quality Of family traits and characteristics , both physical and

m o f mental , for we find in embers two branches , that have been entirely separated for two centuries , the same physical appearance and the same

- mental peculiarities . We find in a maj ority of the family to day many h resemblances in personal appearance to t eir common ancestor , and we find still more prominent the same peculiarities o f mind and dis 6 THE ALLERTON F A M ILY.

position . We are proud to recognize the same spirit Of honesty and independence that led him to cas t in his lot with the adventurers o f

o f New Plymouth , and the same broadness Of mind and toleration the Opinions o f others that brought him into conflict with the narrow

e o f spirit o f puritani sm . W claim a share his courage and his enter prise , and we admit that we have also inherited somewhat of his quick f temper and o his wandering disposition and unsettled spirit . The Allertons have ever been wanderers ; they can point to no one place

o f an as the home their family , the same restless spirit that led their ce s t o rs up and down upon the earth has appeared to be always with them . It is only in a few rare cases that we find the son continuing to dwell where his father dwelt before him ; and this fact , while aff ording another proof o f the possession o f common traits o f char acter, has rendered it difficult to collect a complete genealogical record o f the family .

The author began the work o f collecting material f o r a family history some ten years since , and pursued it in such time as could be

an spared from the practice of his profession , but he soon found that other had been f o r a long time at work in the same fi eld . The late A Y Mead llerton Of Newark , Wayne County , New ork , after working for many years at this task , left at his death a large and valuable

’ manuscript , which was placed in the author s hands by his widow , and

f o r from which many details this volume were Obtained , especially in

o f regard to the fourth , fifth and sixth generations the Rhode Island

Y . h o w and New ork branches Mead Allerton had not been able , ever , to collect much information about the New Jersey branch , and f to obtain this has been the most difficult part o the work .

The name o f Allerton is o n e that is comparatively common in some U parts of England , and there are several families now in the nited

States who are in no way related to us , being emigrants from England

o r —a A t themselves descendants of such , list Of these ller ons will be found at the end of the genealogical record . The beauty of the name has also caused it to be frequently used by novelists and other writers , THE A LLERTON F A M I LY. 7 and it has also been occasionally assumed by persons not belonging

o f to the family , some Of whom have not been a character calculated l to reflect credit on any fami y . Where ne arly every o n e to whom th e author has applied for in

r fo mation has gladly responded , it may seem unfair to mention any in

u partic lar, but while the author takes this opportunity to thank all

o f who have in any manner assisted him , he feel s that the members the family generally ought to know the names of those who have ren dered particular service . Besides Mead Allerton to whom the greatest

f o r i credit is due many years Of patient and painstak ng research , the author has received valuable assistance from the following persons

O . G . Mrs . Jane Allerton , of Salem , hio

Up to the present time some facts concerning the early generations

o r f o r have not been found in town , church probate records , and that

The arrangement o f families has been materially changed and in order that reference may be quickly made the following suggestions ff are o ered , viz The figures directly preceding and following each name indicate

W ith the head of each family is shown his marginal number , below you find his children , turn back where his marginal number

IN reviewin g the history of the Allerton Family o n e very marked

u feat re which arrests our attention is the slow growth , in numbers , 1 5 0 prior to about the year 7 .

Is aac l s o n i , Of the Mayflower , left but one who rema ned in New

: 2 3 England , viz . Isaac , and he in turn left Isaac , born in New Haven ,

3 C . . onn , and Willoughby , born in Virginia

l n o t d The Virginia ine is carried forward , in etail , although proper

f o r 1 7 60 reference is made to it , the reason that , as early as , the male line became extinct . This line is not important , therefore , to later f generations o Allertons . Isaac 3 born in N e w Haven in 1 65 5 thus becomes the progenitor O f all Allertons of the later generations . 1 7 5 0 in Since the family has largely increased numbers , and at the present time there are several hundred persons living who are Allertons by birth and lineal descendants of Isaac of the Mayflower .

His descendants may be said to embrace three branches; the Rhode

o f 5 N e w Y c Island branch , being the descendants JOhn ; the ork bran h ,

o f 5 being the descendants Isaac , and the New Jersey branch , being the descendants of Zachariah 5

The history o f the Rhode Island branch is very brief ; they resided in Rhode Island and in Windham County , Connecticut , and were gen e rall o f o f y farmers , but many the sons this family died young and

. n o w unmarried The branch is practically extinct , there being only

n e 5 o male descendant o f John now known to be living . 1 0 THE ALLERTON FA M I LY . Y The New ork branch , after residing in Connecticut about fifty

N e w Y u years , removed to D utchess county , in ork , and to the co nty

o f o n o f Greene , the west bank the Hudson , where many Of them reside

to this day , and from there they gradually followed the general ten

d en c o f t o y settlement the west , and Wh ile they are scattered over the b f entire country , y far the greater number reside in the States o New

Y O N e w ork , hio , Michigan and Illinois ; while in England , the original f o . home the Pilgrims , there are now less than a dozen members

w o f and This branch , hich is entitled to the honor being the Older principal branch of the family, has always been the most successful , and has contained the larger number of men who have attained to

f o r positions o eminence in professional business life . The New Jersey branch has always shown a roving and unsettled

t n d ifli disposi ion , their history has bee the most varied and the most

4 cult to trace . It is certain that Jesse had at least t wo other sons b e

5 o f sides Zachariah , but no trace any of their descendants have ever been found . There is a tradition , which seems to be entitled to accept

o f ance , that two sons Jesse , after removing to New Jersey with i Zachariah , continued still further nto the wilderness , and settling in the

o f Wyoming valley , were killed with all their families at the time the

O f o f celebrated massacre . There is no mention the name in any the

o f accounts the massacre , but this is not conclusive proof that they

n o t fi n d O f were there at the time , and in most accounts we the names

o f several families Athertons among the victims , and this we know to have been the most common of the many mistaken forms which the if family name has Often taken . It has been very d ficult to Obtain facts

f f N e o f . o o w as to names , dates , etc , the members the Jersey branch the fifth , sixth and seventh generations , and the rule, which has been

o f invariably adhered to , rej ecting every item about which there

o f seemed to be even the suspicion doubt, has rendered it impossible to give many details o f their lives . But the chain of descent has been traced in every case with absolute certainty , so that every living member o f the family can readily follow his o wn line back to the com THE ALLERTON FA M ILY . 1 1 m o n o f ancestor , and can ascertain the exact degree relationship i existing between h mself and any other Allerton . The sons and grandsons of Zachariah gradually drifted from New Jersey westward — O through Pennsylvania to north eastern hio , where the greater num

o f o f ber his descendants now reside , although many them are found i in Michigan , Ind ana and other Western States .

o f - The great maj ority the family are to day , as they have always

to been , farmers . They have never showed a tendency city life , and

f r very few are at present dwelling in any O o u large cities . Outside o f n o f farmi g the occupation most favored has been that machinist .

o f Each the learned professions has had several representatives . " 7 9 f D . o The clergymen have been Reuben , Isaac and Job , whom i “ t . only the la ter is now l ving The physicians were Reuben ,

9 . Y . S , of New ork City , both Of whom are now living Members of the family have fought in all the wars that have occurred since the landing Of the Pilgrims , including the old Indian

o f 1 8 1 2 wars , the Revolution , the War , the Mexican war and th e

Rebellion - thus showing their willingness to go forth to battle f o r the defense and preservation o f that liberty which their great an ce s tor had done so much to establish . History also shows that many

Allerton s served the Colonies and Nation in civil capacities .

The Allerton family has as vet given no great names to history ,

o r o f they have never sought office the rewards political strife , the occupations to which they have generally devoted themselves have never been those that lead to fame or to political preferment , they

o r have been farmers , merchants mechanics , and have been content to

o f i be good citizens and honest men . The whole history the fam ly is remarkably free from moral blemishes .

Physically , they have always been a hardy and vigorous race , and 1 2 THE ALLERTON FAM ILY .

o f a distinctly blonde type . In youth th ey are generally slender and

o f quick action , and many have been noted for strength and dexterity , l but they are apt to become quite fleshy in O d age . The most prom

in en t physical characteristic of the family is the shape of the forehead ,

eyes and nose , this can easily be seen by taking a number of portraits

o f members of all branches , and placing cards over them in such a

o f manner as to Show only the upper half the face , when a remarkable

similarity will be noticed by any one .

Th e v are a quick tempered race and apt to act upon impulse , very

un co m m u decided in both likes and dislikes , and usually rather

their attachment to old ones . THE ALLERT ON F AM I LY.

A IS AC ALLERTON .

’ THE exact time o r place of Isaac Allerton s birth is not at present known to his descendants in the United States . He probably belonged

o f to an old and honorable family mixed Saxon and Danish descent , that had been for many centuries located in the south - eastern part Of

O f ff England , many representatives which are still to be found in Su olk 1 5 8 3 and the adj acent counties . He was born between the years and

1 5 8 5 f o r m H l , and resided at London some ti e prior to removing to o

- in 1 60 9 . t land , It is said , however, that he was about wenty six years

Old when he went to Holland and about thirty - seven when he came to

Plymouth . The records of St . Dionis Backchurch , London , give the

o f . marriage of Edward Allerton , of that parish , to Rose Davis , St ’ — 1 4 1 5 7 9 8 0 . 1 5 90 . Peter s , Cornhill , February , Edward died in Rose survived him six years and died in 1 5 96 . Possibly they were the par f ents o Isaac Allerton and his sister Sarah . He is generally admitted

o f o n e o f f e w to have been the wealthiest all the Pilgrims , and is the among them to whom Bradford and other contemporaneous writers “ ” M n u always give the prefix , which in those days was sed as an

n index of superior family or respectability . He was also o e of the three upon whom the privilege o f citizenship was conferred by the

o f city Leyden , his associates in this honor, which was given February

f o r Richard Masterson and Randolph Tickens ; the bride , Anna Fuller

and D illon Carpenter. No one in the whole Leyden colony was more efficient and emi u ently useful in all the preparations for their departure for America .

o f o f r At the time the sailing the Pilgrims he had fou children , all

o f born in Holland , three whom , Bartholomew , Remember and Mary ,

s came over with their parent in the Mayflower , while the youngest ,

Sarah , remained behind and came over later with her aunt, Sarah

o f As was natural at that season the year , the voyage on the May

o n e flower was a long and stormy , and disease and death were already

- o f at work among the over crowded passengers the little vessel , when o n 9 O f November , at break of day the sandy hills Cape Cod became visible upon the western horizon . Their original design had been to make their settlement near the mouth Of the Hudson , and accordingly

e n they put about at once to the south , but soon found themselves

in tangled the shoals of that dangerous coast, and being all Of them , w especially the omen and children , heartily sick of confinement within

to o . land became strong to be resisted The captain also , having been bribed by the D utch West India Company not to carry them to th e

It will be noticed that the honorable prefi x Mr . is here given to

Brewster and Allerton only . The Street is now called Leyden street and leads from the harbor westward . “ It is probable that Isaac Allerton built a house o n his Garden ” o f Plotte , but if he did he did not occupy it during the entire period

1 63 5 o n his residence in Plymouth , for in , he lived at Rocky Nook ,

’ “ Jones River in Kingston , in a house which he afterwards sold to my ” s o n n e ~ in ~ law o f well beloved Thomas Cushman , the location which is

’ still pointed o u t near the celebrated Elder s spring In March the colonists had grave apprehension o f trouble with

O f - the Indians . On the night the twenty second an attack was ex

e ct e d o f p and watch was kept , but there was no appearance hostility ,

O ld and as the chronicle says , The next day , Friday, Captain Standish “ and Mr . Allerton went venturously to visit King Massasoit , and were “ received by him after his manner. He gave them 3 or 4 groundnuts

and some tobacco .

o f o f As the result this visit a treaty peace was concluded , which

held good f o r more than fifty years .

In April , Governor Carver died , and William Bradford was then

n chose Governor , and Isaac Allerton Assistant Governor, a position

1 624 . which he held until , and probably longer

1 6 21 o f In September, , a party ten , including Isaac Allerton , went

o f by water to explore what is now the harbor Boston , and to visit the d In ians who lived in that vicinity , and on this trip the first headland

t o at Nantasket , at the entrance the harbor was called Point Allerton ,

a name which it still retains , although it has sometimes been spelled Alderton ; an adj oining hill in the town Of Hull was also known for

many years as Allerton Hill . F o r several years after the landing of l the colonists Isaac Al erton was engaged , as were all the rest, in

building houses and barns for shelter , in clearing and tilling the soil ,

o f and in managing with the other leading men , the affairs the little

o f n settlement . We find him participating in another division la d in

20 THE ALLERTON FAM ILY .

£24 0 0 entire indebtedness , amounting in all to about , and in addition £5 0 they were to pay the Colony per annum in hoes and shoes .

Having satisfactorily arranged the composition with the Adven tu rers m £20 0 and paid the their first installment of , and having paid

other debts , Isaac Allerton returned to Plymouth in the spring of 1 628 h , bringing wit him a supply of goods; and also a patent for a

o n trading station the Kennebec , but when they came to compare the “ patent with the region to which it applied , they found it so strait ” n and ill bounded , that he was again sent to Engla d , for the third

O f time , to obtain the enlargement and correction this patent , and also

n e w f o r an d f o r o f a patent Plymouth , to arrange the removal the

remainder of the church at Leyden . He was compelled to return to

to Plymouth without accomplishing all he had been desired do , but 1 629 being immediately sent back again , in August , , he had better 29 1 63 0 success , and Obtained the desired patent January , . He went to England several times after this o n business for the colonists o r for

himself , crossing the ocean in all seven times . 1 63 0 About this time , , began his trouble with the colonists , or f rather with Governor Bradford , the true cause of which it is di ficult

o f to ascertain , and with a full account which I shall not weary the

’ reader . Bradford s version can be found , written with all the energy

o f and rancour his narrow and prej udiced mind , in the pages of his

famous j ournal , but it is a series Of complaints rather than a statement

o f facts , and evidently fails to state the true grounds of the disagree m ff f ment . We ight O set the complainings o Bradford with the statements o f those who were better able to know the true value of

’ o n e Isaac Allerton s services to the colony ; thus James Sherley , of

u the Advent rers and a steadfast friend of the colonists , writes , March 8 1 629 , , He hath been a truly honest friend to you all , either there “ o f or here . And if any do , as I know some them are apt to speak ill ” o f . o n 1 9 1 629 him , believe them not And again March , , he writes ,

in a letter signed also by Timothy Hatherly , a friend of the colonists

“ B ut ex ec at London , the Lord so blessed his labours (even beyond p THE ALLERTO N FA M I LY . 21

“ tatio n in these evil days) , as he obtained the love and favour Of great men in repute and place , he got granted all Mr . Winslow desired in “ ” his letters to me and more also . Many similar statements might be quoted from letters and writings of other friends to the colony in

n o n Engla d , while the other hand B radford complains bitterly that too much money had been expended in obtaining a charter, and that he had sometimes endeavored to further his o w n interests rather than

o f those the colony . But those who care to examine into the merits will inevitably come to the conclusion reached by a painstaking and

“ impartial historian , that As an agent Mr . Allerton appears to have “ been indefatigable in his attempts to promote the interests Of his f . o employers He was a person uncommon activity , address and

enterprise .

ffi th e The true cause , however, Of this di culty with colonists and with Bradford in particular, is undoubtedly to be found in the fact , m h that he was in ind , education and practice far more liberal t an they , and that while his associations in England with the merchants o f L o n

o f don , and the officers the court and government tended to still further broaden and liberalize his views , their seclusion in the forests and among the dangers o f the little settlement at Plymouth was most admirably calculated to make still n arrow er and more bigoted natures that were already inclined to the most puritan ical o f views . We know that the church at Leyden took off ence at the liberal

’ o f o fl en d e d tendencies Isaac Allerton , that the colonists were greatly at his apparently innocent mistake in employing the notorious Morton

u Of Merry Mount as his secretary , altho gh in these days , Morton would

f o r almost pass a saint , and when he became known as a firm friend o f Roger Williams , and was found to have sheltered and protected

f an d o f many o the oppressed persecuted Quakers , the cup his iniquity

t o was indeed full the minds of the colonists , and we are not surprised

1 63 6 o f th e to hear that about , he left Massachusetts in consequence

o f religious intolerance the people , and went to New Amsterdam to

o an d liv e . Like most of his descendants , Isaac Allerton , th ugh a j ust 22 THE ALLERTON FA M I LY .

o f f fair minded man , was a quick temper , apt to resent an af ront , and impetuous in acting upon his impulses , and therefore , when once a diff erence had arisen between him and a maj ority Of the Plymouth colonists , who were no doubt well represented by their narrow and

o f dogmatic governor , there was little possibility any reconciliation , even h ad there been m o re in com m on in their natures and their ways

Of life and thought .

1 63 4 . 1 63 3 the French in In , Winthrop records that he fished with

light boats at Marble Harbor , and he is j ustly regarded as the founder

o f o f n Marblehead , for he made that place the headquarters his fishi g

o f fleet , built a large warehouse , and resided there a great part the

- in - time with his son law Moses Maverick , until his liberal views again C brought him into trouble with the General ourt , as they had pre

v io u s l n y done with his Old associates at Plymouth , and he was give

“ ” leave to depart from Marblehead .

Th at he was liberal in other matters as well as in religion , we

know from the following extract from the records , under date Of

“ 2 1 63 3 . . D ecember , Whereas , Mr Will Bradford was appointed in

“ the behalf of the Court to enter up on the estate o f G o db ert G o db ert 2 THE ALLERTON FAM I LY . 3

But about this time misfortunes began to come thick an d heavy

th e upon him . In 1 63 4 h is trading house at Machias was taken by

French and Indians and destroyed by fire with all its contents . In

’

o f . C February the same year , Mr radock s house at Marblehead was

“ n in . burnt down about midnight , there bei g it Mr Allerton and many ” b e a . fishermen whom employed that se son The same year, return R “ ing from a trading voyage to Port oyal , his pinace was cast

‘ ” n 1 2 1 6 3 4 away and e tirely lost ; and on December , , his wife died at

Plymouth . 1 63 5 i . a In his misfortunes still cont nued In M rch , he was notified

i t o acco u n t o f w leave Marblehead on his religious vie s , and in May

f o r he transferred all his houses , buildings and stages curing fish at

- o n e d 1 63 6 and twenty persons perishe , and in , while returning from

Penobscot , he was himself shipwrecked .

1 6 3 6 1 64 6 h e O f From to , resided most the time at New Amster

in dam , where he was engaged the coasting and tobacco trades , having

o f a warehouse on the East River , somewhere near where the foot

n o Maiden Lane w is . That his intelligence and enterprise were thor oughly appreciated by the D utch settlers i s shown by the circumstance

in 1 64 3 C o f that when , , a ouncil eight were chosen from among the

to citizens , nominally assist Governor Kieft , but in reality to manage

o n e o f him , Isaac Allerton was the number . While living at New

h e i a and Amsterdam , however, made many voyages to Virgin even to 24 L I THE AL ERTO N FA M LY .

the West Indies , and frequently visited the New England Colonies ; and notwithstanding the treatment he had received he often rendered good service to such residents o f the Massachusetts settlement as came 4 “ in his way . Thus Winthrop writes in 1 6 3 : Three mi n isters which “ were sent to Virginia were wrecked on Long Island ; Mr . Allerton , of “ New Haven , being there took great pains and care of them , and pro “ ” cured them a very good pinace and all things necessary .

And in a letter from one John Haynes to Governor Winthrop , it is “ stated , There is late news by a vessel that came to the D utch and

“ : from thence to New Haven , by Mr . Allerton . The substance thus “ that there has been a great battle between the King and Parliament forces) ’

1 64 4 o n v In , he was wrecked at Scituate , his way from New Ha en

to the Colonies , and at this time we find the first mention of his third

O f n r wife . The date this marriage is not known o the surname and

re sidence Of his wife ; her first name was Johanna, and he is generally

thought to have married her at New Haven , but more probably she

came from Marblehead o r Salem . She appears to have been a woman

Of a most excellent character , and she outlived her husband many f years . At the time o this marriage Isaac Allerton must h ave been

nearly sixty years o f age and the union proved to be a childless o n e . About 1 64 6 Isaac Allerton became a permanent resident o f New

h e Haven , and at that place lived the remainder of his life , although

making occasional trips to N e w Amsterdam and Massachusetts . He “ C ” built himself a grand house on the reek , with Four Porches , on a “ ” home lot Of tw o acres . One of the famous spots in New Haven is

- the north west corner o f Union and Fair streets where the house stood . A tablet has been placed on the present building bearing this full

“ “ ” : — inscription Isaac Allerton , a passenger Of the Mayflower , lived

o n this ground from 1 64 6 to It was in this house that the regicide Judges Whalley and Goff e 1 66 1 found temporary Shelter and concealment in . Stiles , in his His

o f e . tory the Regicide Judges , says that they were protect d by Mrs L 25 THE AL ERTO N FAM I LY .

1 65 3 Eyres , but in this he is in error, for, having been born in , she was b ut eight years o ld at the time . f f . o o It was Mrs Johanna Allerton , the widow Isaac Allerton , the

fl o f - in - May ower, and Elizabeth Allerton , daughter her son law ,

2 Isaac , who received and sheltered the j udges .

1 7 4 8 o f An Old plan of New Haven in , shows the house Simon

o f Eyres , a descendant his in this location , and mentions Isaac

Allerton as the original owner . W hen he lived there the house stood o n a gentle declivity sloping down to the harbor in front and t o the

o n ff creek the west , a ording a view Of the waters Of the Sound even

an d to the coast of Long Island , it must have been j ust such a home as would be most pleasant f o r the last years o f o n e who h ad been so long a follower o f the sea .

We find many mentions of Captain Isaac Allerton , as he is there ld O . called , in the records Of New Haven

O 1 0 1 64 7 n March , , the names of the people as they were seated in “ the meeting house were put upon record , and we find Thomas Nash ,

” “ Mr . Allerton and Bro . Perry , assigned to the second seat of the ” cross seats at the end . It is to be noticed that as usual he is here

“ ” given the honorable prefix Mr .

The following account o f a little diffi culty which Mrs . Allerton

’ w f n n had ith the o ficials of the tow , duri g her husband s absence upon

o f one his voyages , shows that human nature , especially as it develops

f . itself in petty O ficers , was the same then as now At a Court held

“ ’ at 6 1 65 0 . New Haven , August , , Mr Allerton s fence was com

“ . h plained of Jno . Cooper and t e Marshall informed the Court that

Mrs . Allerton hath had notice o f it three times and yet the fence is “ ” not mended , but two places remain defective as John Cooper says .

The Court ordered that Mr . Allerton pay two shillings for the two

h n o t defective places , each time they ave so warned . The fence does

to o n e appear have been mended , for the same report is repeated from court to another , and an additional fine of two shillings ordered each

“ time , until December , when Mr . Evans saith Mrs . Allerton desired 26 I THE A LLERTON FA M LY .

” him to acquaint the Court with the case . The explanation bei n g that there had been a long misunderstanding between her and John

C a o f f ooper about the loc tion the fence complained o . The Court

“ ’ said they must rest o n John Cooper s report because he is in a public “ f trust in this matter Of ence , and therefore it is ordered that Mrs .

t wo . Allerton pay for the two defects , shillings Th e misfortunes which had pressed so thickly upon him during

o f the last years his residence in Massachusetts , as to gain for him the

“ ” n n o t h im name Of the u lucky , do appear to have entirely deserted

f o r th e 2 1 65 2: yet , we find following record under date Of November , Robert Paine and W illiam Meaker were complained o f f o r absence

a . from tr ining The Court was informed that Mr . Allerton that morning sent to Goodyears to get them free because o f some urgent

n occasion about his vessel . The Court considering that he did se d

“ w as u th e to ask leave , and it pon that occasion , and time the vessel

an d ffl o f . h ath lain , the a icted state Mr Allerton otherwise , did for

this time pass it over without a fine . Isaac Allerton was now approaching the threescore years and ten which are the gener ally accepted limit o f human existence ; his life h ad o f been one hardship , activity and exposure ; his son Isaac was

n o w b to m grown to manhood , and a le anage in great part the exten

n o t sive , although very successful business in which he had been so

a an d long eng ged , for the last few years Of his life he seems to have

resided most Of th e time quietly in h is house upon the B ay .

i O f 1 65 9 He died about the beg nning the year , being then in all

28 THE ALLERTON FA M ILY .

N O o f portrait Isaac Allerton has come down to us , but he is said to have been slightly above the average height , of a spare but muscular frame , with dark hair and beard , a clear complexion and strongly marked features , a good looking rather than a handsome man . In the great maj ority o f his descendants there can be noticed a great s im ilarit o f d y evelopment in the upper portion of the head and face , more especially noticeable in the forehead , eyes and nose , and there c an w w be no doubt that these physical marks , together ith certain ell

o f o ur defined traits character , have descended to us from common

. O f o n e ancestor He was superior to all his associates the Mayflow r,

o n e o r except possibly Winslow , and two others , in education , and superior to all of them in knowledge o f the world and familiarity with

business , and as his experience in these matters was so much greater , his mental horizon was far wider an d his view s more liberal and more

o f tolerant the opinions of oth ers . The only wonder is that he was

able to agree with them as lon g as he did . The services which he rendered to the Colony have been fully appreciated by a few careful historians only ; poetry and romance have combined to spread the

fame of Standish the soldier , or of Alden the clerk , wh ile the record

’ o f n f Allerton s work is buried in the dusty recesses of E glish o fices , but had there been no Standish amon g the Colonists there could have

been found others as competent to battle with the Indians , while it is hardly possible that any man among them could have accomplished

n o t t o o all that Isaac Allerton did in London , and it is much to say

that the very existence o f the Plymouth Colony depended for a time

upon the success o f h is negotiations there . F o r two ce n turies and a third the dust o f the Pilgrim leader has l m s umbered beneath the elms Of New Haven , but his emory is fresh

- to day and will always endure , not only in the hearts of his descend

m o f ants but in com mon with his heroic co panions the Mayflower , his name will be forever cherished by the e n tire people Of th at mighty

- t nation , the corner s one of whose foundations was so deeply and so

enduringly laid by the Pilgrims Of Plymouth . C I ORNEL A (ALLERTON) SHERMAN .

THE ALLERTON FAM ILY . 8 1

An uncle was chiefly engaged in the live stock business . When Orville was eleven years old his uncle took h im o u t of school to help

o f Y u him drive a drove cattle to the New ork market , one h ndred

- . O miles distant When twenty one miles from home , rville became so

n homesick that he could not be induced to go farther . Two men o horseback were goi n g eight miles toward his home . Orville kept up

o n with them foot and reached home that evening , averaging over five m iles per hour for four hours . Love of home has always been a

N e w strong feature of his character . Five times he drove cattle to

- Y o n . fi v e ork with his uncle , each time foot He was paid twenty Y cents per day and steamboat fare to Pou ghkeepsie , New ork , thirty miles from home , which distance he then walked , unless he happened to find a teamster who would allow him to ride part o f the way . His education up to his fourteenth year was received in the district school and the select school of Dr . Leonard and the Amenia seminary .

o f h e At the age thirteen became a clerk in a store at Nassau ,

Y Y . New ork , and later, at Dover Plains , New ork He later

Y b e went to Elmira , New ork , where secured a position as 1 8 clerk in a large store . In 3 9 he received letters from his brother

Henry , who had settled in Iowa , urging him to visit him , and telling him that he could there better his financial condition in a store in that

. O O 4 th o n o n State rville left Elmira , ctober , board a packet boat ff the Erie Canal . At Bu alo he took passage on a steamer crowded with

- five hundred and twenty one passengers . When entering Saginaw

Bay a furious storm arose . Nearly all the passengers were seasick

' n d b a . frightened , believing the oat would be wrecked The passengers

d . v cried and praye After se eral hours had passed , a safe anchorage “ ” was made in the St . Clair river . At a praise meeting held that

’ night , the Captain said that in twenty years experience he had never

seen so severe a storm as that through which they had j ust passed . O rville arrived in safety in Chicago , Illinois , and went from there by

a . st ge to Dubuque , Iowa , two hundred miles distant The roads were in such condition that frequently the passengers had to help pry the 6 8 2 THE A LLERTON FAM I LY .

. w wheels out of the mud He walked from D ubuque , t enty miles , to

’ his brother Henry s home . ff The store he entered was a very crude a air, the stock being prin

ci all p y plug tobacco , clay pipes and whisky. He was there but five

weeks , when he returned to Elmira . His experience as clerk and

- d book keeper for twelve years , gave him a thorough knowle ge of bus in e s s i o f principles , and la d the foundation his character . Integrity f and industry enabled him , in later years to reach a high measure o Y 1 8 2 . 4 success He came to Newark , New ork , in , and began a mer can tile - fiv e career which continued for twenty years . After thirty

seven years of indoor work he found it necessary , on account of failing health , to change his business . He sold his store and goods and 1 8 68 ff accepted , in , a position o ered him by his brother Samuel W . Y Allerton , as superintendent of the Pennsylvania Central Stock ards f . o at Pittsburg , Penn , a position great responsibility and liberal

compensation . He remained there seventeen years , and retired at that

fi f t - time , after y four years of active business life , with the confidence

and esteem o f his employers .

and some of the best articles in the public press are from his pen .

u . Is They are concise , clear and very arg mentative He of liberal

n mind , a stro g believer in free thought and opinion ; is consistent in

politics and can , when called upon , give an address at once pointed

and convincing . His measure of success in life he owes chiefly to promptness in busi

ness , order, industry and integrity . The man who has made money by

o wn - strict attention to his business , and by non interference with the

ff . a airs of others , he considers a good example to follow He has been very successful in the purchase and sale o f Western railroad stocks

and other speculative operations , and has accumulated a large

. 1 5 1 8 8 2. death married her sister, Agnes C Thompson , March , f Samuel Waters Allerton was the youngest o nine children . When he was but seven years o f age he received an impression which has influenced his whole life . His father had failed , (through causes ff no ted in his history) , and the sheri was selling the property ; among the property were t wo horses which had been highly prized ; his “ ff ” mother shed tears when they were bid o . Samuel threw his arms

’ around his mother s neck , saying , that he would be a man , and provide for her . In after life he kept his promise . Samuel was the youngest 8 4 I THE A LLERTON FA M LY .

of nine children , and lived at Amenia until he was fourteen years of age , and had to commence work at the age of twelve . His father Y N Y 1 8 4 2 s e w . removed to ate County , ork , in , and rented a farm Samuel worked with him until they had saved enough money to b u m Y y a far for his father , in Wayne County , New ork .

Samuel then , with his brother Henry , rented a farm , and made

fifteen hundred dollars , they then bought a farm , j ointly , in Newark ,

Y fi ve Wayne County , New ork , for four thousand hundred dollars , paying the fifteen hundred dollars down . f Samuel then rented a arm , and at the end of three years had saved

- thirty two hundred dollars . He then went to Newark , where he

h in worked with his brothers , on t eir farm , and traded , in a small way ,

. Y live stock , in Wayne County He went to New ork and Albany , aud

U i : pon his return , sa d to his brother Henry I believe I know as much h as the dealers I met, and I think my services are wort more than nine dollars a month , and , as we now have the farm paid for, and three

o u thousand dollars in money , I will settle with y , you taking the farm ,

7 7 “ : and I taking the money . His brother replied If you continue as

f e w o u o w n you are , in a years y will the best farm in this country ; but

o u if y wish to try the live stock trade , all right , we will settle on this basis . This is all the advice I have to give you ; you will run across — smart and tricky men , but they always die poor make a name and ” f o r character yourself, and you are sure to win . Y The first hundred cattle Samuel ever bought, he sold in New ork

City , where the Fifth Avenue Bank now stands . It was the worst market there had been in ten years , and he lost seven hundred dollars .

o t This absolutely made him sick , for he g his money together in small sums . He had an elderly uncle , who had made a success in “ ’ — m o u life , who said to him y boy y are pretty sick , but don t lose

o n e t your courage . I never found but dead sure thing , and hat was hoeing corn at fifty cents a day . If you make money , you must some i ” times lose t . Try it over . THE ALLERTON FAMILY . 8 5

Samuel went to Erie . Women had burned down bridges , because

f o r trains would not stop dinner, this made a break in the line , and live stock had to be unloaded and driven to D unkirk , at which place

u . R . he bought one h ndred cattle , shipped them over the Erie R ,

Y an d encountered a great flood , arrived in New ork , found the market

. an d short on cattle This venture netted him three thousand dollars ,

h im W f o r gave courage . He drifted est , and the first year fed and raised cattle in Illinois .

‘

O h io th e Mr . Sturgis failed in Cincinnati , , national financial system was so weak that it created a panic , and wiped out about all

Samuel had . He became sick , concluded he could not stand the West

n in ern climate , and bought an i terest a store with his brother , in

N ew Y . Newark, ork Selling goods was not agreeable to him , as he

d . esired to deal on a larger scale He had met a daughter o f Astor C . n Thompson , in Fulto County , Illinois . After he had regained his health , he gathered together what money he had left, and borrowed

5 0 0 0 The r . att a $ , and started West young lady was the principal c tion , he went directly to Fulton County , Illinois , where he traded a C . 1 8 60 o n u little He came to hicago in March , , and was married J ly

1 s t , of that year, to Pamilla W . Thompson , at Peoria . Illinois . He

“ settled in Chicago , believing that Chicago , where the world turned

3 - around every twenty four hours was the prope r place to trade in .

He commenced , in a small way , to buy and sell live stock . There m was no general market in Chicago , except for a short ti e during the

. l winter Shippers general y took their live stock to the Eastern markets .

About this time there came a decided break in the Chicago market .

m n o Sa uel desired to buy , but he h ad formed connection with any h o w . bank here , and the question was to get the money Among his f e w in C n acquaintances hicago was a gentleman by the ame of Tobey , h m i . . wh om he asked to take to a bank , and identify him Mr Tobey

n o t was willing to do so , at the same time saying , that he could guar antee anything . Mr . Allerton said that he only desired to be iden tifi ed n h im , he would arrange the bala ce . Mr . Tobey took to George 8 6 THE ALLERTON FAMILY .

’ Smith s bank , a bank that issued Georgia money , and furnished the

- “ currency for the great North west . He said to Mr . W illard , If I

o n e Ch aim b erlain Co . will pay for three telegrams , to Halstead , ,

o n e o w n asking if they will pay my draft ; to your correspondent , to

. all o n e ascertain if Halstead , Chamberlain Co are right ; and to my

— - o wn bank to assure you that I am all right can I come down to mor ? ” “ ” Ye s . . row and sell you a sight draft He replied , Mr Allerton went Y back to the Stock ards , and bought all the hogs in the market , and went down with a draft for Eighty Thousand Dollars , asking Mr .

Willard if he had received replies to his telegrams . His answer was , that he had , and that they were very favorable . Mr . Allerton handed

n h im the draft . Mr . Willard said he had o t supposed he would want more than five thousand dollars , and that he could not discount so “ . Yo u o . large a draft on telegrams . Mr Allerton said , kn w Mr Tobey , ? you do not think he would introduce a thief to you Mr . Willard would not discount the draft . Allerton found himself in a position

n o where he must have the money . What to do he did t kno w He accidentally met a gentleman from Syracuse , and asked him if he was

“ wi ? Yes acquainted th any banks in Chicago He replied , , Aikens ” Norton . He took Mr . Allerton to them , and introduced him . Mr .

Aikens looked over the telegrams , and signified his willingness to

’

. n comply with Mr Allerto s request , but said he would have to charge one per cent . In this way Mr . Allerton became a customer of Aikens

ar u . m Norton . The Civil W broke o t The nation needed oney .

Congress passed the National Bank Act, issuing bonds to secure the circulation . This was a step in the right direction toward a National

an d Currency , as the nation had never had anyth ing but Red Dog

Bob - tailed currency ; and to start a National Bank would aid the gov e rn m en t n , and give the people a uniform currency , because the natio

o f was back it , but for some reason , the people seemed slow to start

National Banks . Mr . Allerton asked Mr . Aikens why he did not start “ a National Bank He replied , because he feared he could not get the stock taken . Mr. Allerton said , that he , with five other men,

8 8 THE ALLERTON FAM I LY .

have a sound currency , as good as the bank notes of England , and which should be good in every nation o n the globe ; that the weakness of the National financial system has destroyed the character of man y young men who tried to better their condition by building up some

u ind stry , and who lost their position and character by the periodical panics ; that a great Nation o f free people should have brains enough to frame a financial syst em that would be as sound as the Bank of

England . He believes that all men should try to lead a successful life ; this he owes to himself, his friends and his people . The success

o f ful men our Nation have done much to build up the colleges ,

u schools and hospitals , from which the p blic has received a large ben m efi t . If the man of wealth invests his money and pro otes industries that give employment to the people , he is a public benefactor . There has n o t b o o u t been a y born in a hundred years , starting in life right , but

h o O o r w could gain a competency . That voung men have a better pp t un it b o y now than when he was a y; have better teachers , better

schools ; labor is higher, and the necessities of life are cheaper . He

once ran f o r mayor o f Chicago in the interest of Civil Service with no

d o n e ple ge s to any , only as a good citizen to do his duty ; as there was nothing to be gained as m ayor except to leave a good name to his child

t . ren , and to give the city an hones , clean administration He intended to employ the best engineers in the country to settle th e vexed ques

o f tion engineering , and , in all departments of the city government ,

to put the right man in the right place , irrespective of politics .

o f He carried the N orth division the city , and the other intelligent l wards , but was beaten by a sharp po itical trick of his opponent ,

(Harriso n ) . The Democratic aldermen used their influence to elect

Republican aldermen , with the understanding th at they in turn would

help elect a Democratic mayor .

After the retirement Of Davison , Brewster returned to Scrooby , “ where he lived in good e steem e amongst his friends and ye gentlemen o f e s etiall those parts , p y the godly and religious , doing much good in ” . 1 5 90 t promoting and furthering religion In , he was appointed o administer the estate of his father , who died in the summer Of that year, leaving a widow , Prudence . .

His father was postmaster of Scrooby at the time of his death ,

- O flice . and it is said , that his grand father held the same

Wh o 1 5 93 Sir John Stanhope , became Postmaster General in June , ,

Be verco te appointed one Samuel to succeed the deceased Brewster .

’ Through the influence of Davison , however, the old Postmaster s son w William was soon appointed to the Office , hich he held until

3 0 1 60 7 . . September , (O . S )

His residence at Scrooby was the old Manor House . There the members Of the Pilgrim Church were accustomed to meet on the ’ “ Lord s day , when Brewster with great love , entertained them when ” r is s i n f r r o v o o . they came , making p them , to his great cha ge

Th e Pilgrims attempting to move to Holland , in the latter part of

1 60 7 O f , were imprisoned at Boston , through the treachery the Master

O f the ship that was engaged to transport them .

“ Bradford says that Brewster was ye ch ee f e O f th ose that were

ff O f taken at B oston , and su ered ye greatest loss , and ye seven that ” n were kept lo gest in prison , and after bound over to ye assises .

Through Bradford also , we learn that Brewster, after he reached

s u fi e red Holland , many hardships , and spent most Of his means in “ ” providing f o r his many children .

He was not so well fitted as the oth er Pilgrims for the hard labO r

which became their common lot , yet he bore his condition cheerfully .

D uring the latter part Of the twelve years spent in Holland , he fi increased his income very much by teaching , and by the pro ts from

h e—b O f — a printing press , which y the help some friends set up at “ o f s un d rie w e i htee Leyden At the end that time , for , g and solid

’ reasons , which are duly set forth in Bradford s history , among 1 1 THE ALLERTO N FAM I LY . 7

“ which and which was not least , was a true missionary spirit , the church at Leyden resolved to emigrate to Virginia . Brewster , the

d o f wh o f El er the Church , had been chosen to that O fice during the “ ” Pilgrim stay at Leyden , was desired by those chosen to go first , “ ” to goe with them , while John Robinson , the Pastor, stayed with the maj ority , who should follow later . Thus it happens that we find

tw o Elder Brewster, his wife Mary , his younger sons , the wife Of his s o n h m o f Jonat an , and her son Willia , among the passengers th at , — — n o w famous vessel the M ayflo we r which dropped anchor at

1 1 1 6 20 . Plymouth Harbor , December , , (O t At Plymou h , Brewster took an important part in establishing the

n o t Pilgrim Republic , Shrinking from even the most severe manual “ tw is e labor, and when the church had no other minister , he taught

Sab o th t every , and y at both powerfully and profitably to ye great contentment o f ye hearers .

His wife Mary , whose maiden name has not been discovered ,

1 7 o f 1 627 . dyed at Plymouth , in New England , the th April , (From “ ” O ld o f the Brewster Book , a very manuscript , containing a record

1 8 99 O f the B rewster family , and now ( ) in possession George Ernest f . O Brown , Esq , of Boston , Secretary General , Society Mayflower “ Descendants) . Bradford says : that though she dyed long before her ” Sh e O f 1 60 9 hu sband , yet dyed aged , but by her affidavit , she was “ O f less than Sixty years age , and it is probable that her great and

O ld continual labours , with other crosses and sorrows , hastened it (i . e . ” age) before ye time . “ Elder Brewster survived h is wife many years , and dyed at

l oth 1 644 . Plymouth , in New England , the of April , (This record “ ” is from the Brewster Book , in which the entry was made by the 1 64 4 eldest son , Jonathan , probably in the year , and certainly before 1 65 1 , and it is doubtless correct) . f 4 1 9 o 0 0 £ 4 2 1 1 d .

A question has arisen among Genealogists , as to the identity of 3 s o n Is aac z 1 1 1 65 5 Isaac Allerton , ( of ) , born in New Haven , June , , 3 t . 5 5 and the Isaac Aller on , mentioned by W alter S Allerton , on page f o 1 8 8 8 . the Allerton Genealogy , published by him in

Although it has , so far, been found impossible to Obtain any

u record directly s bstantiating the fact , it is well known that early records are defective , and incomplete , and especiall y so where persons ” moved about , as it is known that the early Allertons did . A careful study will convince the most skeptical that they are o n e and the same person . o t All authorities c ncede that Isaac Aller on , of the Mayflower , was

n w N e w E the only Allerton k o n to have emigrated to ngland , at an

o n early day , except one John Allerton , a sailor the Mayflower , who

o f t h e wh o died before the return vessel to England , and had no descendants .

1 z n : B arth o lo m ew Isaac had but two so s , by his first wife Mary

Norris . He went to England with his father ; married there , and as

o f to . far as known , none his descendants came New England

2 n 1 63 0 b Isaac was bor at Plymouth , in , y his second wife , Fear

Brewster, and from him the Allerton family in this country descend .

2 i 1 6 5 2 . Isaac was marr ed as early as , to Elizabeth (Maiden name

2 n Isaac p urchased the homestead , with the u derstanding that his step

It is but recently that any doubt o f the descent Of the family has

o r arisen , found expression .

Mead Allerton did n o t seem to think it necessary to preserve

o f proofs a fact that appeared to be generally admitted , and although

Mr . Allerton does not give his authority for some statements , it is a e well known fact that he had been car fully collecting his manuscript ,

o f covering a period several years , and that he had been assisted in

h u r le fi . . . S t . his work by such men as Hon . H B Cushman , Dr , Dr

o f Leonard Bacon , and others . While probably some errors a general l character occur , the main facts are undoubted y correct .
