The Wright-Chamberlin Genealogy FROM EMIGRANT ANCESTORS TO PRESENT GENERATIONS By Eunice Miena Barber PUBLISHED 191.fo 11.'rLtered acconHnu to .Act of ConureBI, in th.e i,ear 1914, b1/ .ll)u,.ice Mun<J Bar!Jer, in the Qjlfce of the Libmrian of Congress, at Washington. TBl!I VAIL-BALLOU COIIPANY Blqhamton, New York. U.S. A. PREFACE The descendants of the two brothers, Wright and Moses Cham­ berlin, Sr., who were early settlers of Gibson township, Sus­ quehanna County, Pennsylvania, had become so scattered that the few descendants remaining in the county knew but little if anything about the other branches of the family. Therefore in the early nineties (1800) the descendants of James, Wright, Asher, Lodusky and Charles of Wright Chamberlin's family de­ cided to make an attempt to organize and hold yearly meetings in hopes of getting better acquainted and creating a stronger family interest. Accordingly, a meeting was held in August, 1892, at the home of S. Orville Chamberlin of Gibson, but as so few were present, no officers were elected. In no degree daunted, they met again in August, 1893, at the same place with a much larger attendance, including representatives of each of the aforenamed branches and the following officers were elected :-President, Moses Chamberlin of Harford, Penn.; Vice­ Presidents, Eugene E. Weston of Taylor and Mrs. Emily Sweetser of Scranton; Secretary and Treasurer, Mrs. Edwin A. Weston of Brooklyn, Penn. The following year the ranks were joined by Mrs. Huldah Brown and several descendants of Levi Chamberlin of Wright's family and by Mr. and Mrs. Williston Chamberlin of Moses Chamberlin's family. In each of the following years, repre­ sentatives of other families have met with us while others who are unable to come, send greetings and express regrets that they cannot be with us. After attending two of these yearly gatherings, the desire to learn how many living descendants of Wright Chamberlin, Sr., there were, coupled with the necessity of giving up my former vocation and remaining at home, led me to undertake the task. My inquiries brought far more data than I could get on the simple outline which I, at :first, intended to use and although I had repeatedly said I could not write up a full record of the family, I have been crowded to the task by the enthusiasm of the Wright-Chamberlin Clan. Through the aid of Capt. Orville T.8 Chamberlain [Joseph 1 8 . W., 2 Milo - Wright,5 Moses/ Nathaniel ] of Elkhart, Indiana, PREFACE and the research made by Joseph Edgar 8 Chamberlin [Abner, 2 Joseph 1- Joseph,° Richard,' Nathaniel8] of Newbury, Ver­ mont, I obtained the Chamberlin record back to 1642, and by the aid of Frederick P. Wells of Newbury, Vermont, author of the history of that township, I have obtained the Wright ances­ tors back three generations in England and a clue to the de­ scendants of Remembrance and Asher Chamberlin who were brothers of the aforenamed Wright and Moses Chamberlin of Gibson, Penn. I have inserted but few portraits, most of which were sent me by relatives outside their immediate family. I then thought to get others, that we might see if there existed any family re­ semblance in the different branches; but soon afterward was, by unavoidable circumstances, compelled to lay aside all work upon the record for nearly four years. I then decided to bring it to a close with what material I had at hand, while some, at least, of the contributors remained to see the result of our united efforts. All honor is due to my generous co-operators, as no one person can accomplish much in genealogical work by work­ ing alone and you will better comprehend the interest taken by the Wright-Chamberlin Clan as you peruse the pages that follow. Wbile many have sent me the record of their respective families, many more have furnished the record of collateral fam­ ilies thus greatly helping to make these pages what they are with but little extra exertion on my part. To each and every one who have contributed to this book or helped in any way, I extend my most sincere thanks. E. MIENA BARBER, TABLE OF CONTENTS SECTION PAGE PART FIRST BRANCH I.

To find your generation number in America in the Chamber­ lin family, add your generation number given in your section to 5, the generation number of your progenitor, in the Chamberlin line of the Wright-Chamberlin family and for your generation number in the Wright family add it to 6, the generation num­ ber of your progenitor in the Wright line of the Wright-Cham­ berlin family.

Bush was initially compiled from two sources: The ancestry of his father, President George Bush, as printed in Gary Boyd Roberts, Ancestors of American Presidents, First Authoritative Edition [Santa Clarita, Cal.: Boyer, 1995], pp. 121-130. The ancestry of his mother, Barbara Bush, based on the unpublished work of Michael E. Pollock, [email protected]. The contribution of the undersigned consists mostly in collating and renumbering the material cited above, adding considerable information from the decennial censuses and elsewhere, and HTML-izing the results. The relationships to other persons (see the NOTES section below) are intended to be illustrative rather than exhaustive, and are taken mostly from Mr. Roberts' Notable Kin and Ancestors of American Presidents books, with extensions, where appropriate, from John Young's American Reference Genealogy and from my own, generally unpublished, research.

  • A New England Prison Diary ������������������������������������������������������������������

    A New England Prison Diary

    a new england prison diary the New Hampshire shopkeeper Timothy InM. Joy t! eabandoned winter ofhis 1812, young family, ›eeing the creditors who threat- ened to imprison him. Within days, he found himself in the Ipswich, Massachusetts, jailhouse, charged with defamation of a prominent politician. During the months of his incarceration, Joy kept the re- markable journal that forms the centerpiece of the microhistory pre- sented in this book. Martin J. Hershock situates Joy’s account in the context of the po- litical, cultural, and economic revolutions of the early nineteenth cen- tury. First and foremost, Joy’s journal recounts a personal, anguished path toward spiritual redemption. It offers a vista into the pugnacious politics of the early American republic and illustrates a common citi- zen’s perspective on partisanship. Signi‹cantly, it also sketches a pro‹le of an unfortunate shopkeeper swept along in the transition to market capitalism. Hershock provides close-up views not only of an ordinary person’s experience of a transformative period but also of a historian at work. In the ‹nal chapter, he discusses the value of diaries as historical sources, the choices he made in telling Joy’s story, alterna- tive interpretations of the diary, and other contexts in which he might have placed Joy’s experiences. The appendix reproduces Joy’s original journal so that readers can develop their own skills using a primary source. martin j. hershock is Associate Provost and Associate Professor of History at the University of Michigan–Dearborn. a new england prison diary !
