Some of the Descendants of Jonathan Fabens of Marblehead *•*. SOME OF THE DESCENDANTS OF JONATHAN FABENS, OF \ MARBLEHEAD. GEO. ATPERKINS, M.D., Mehbek New England Histouc Genealogical• Society. ,j / ift3 i i [From HistoricalCollections ofEssex Institute, Vol.XVHL] SALEM: $j** PRINTED FOR THE INSTITUTE.\^. fr% 4 4 JONATHAN FABENS Jl AND SOME OF HIS DESCENDANTS, Inthe records of the Probate Court of Essex County, Mass., Vol. 13, fol. 71, under date of July 2, 1668, is the Inventory of the estate of one Thomas Dill,of Mar­ blehead, seaman, who died at sea. — Dillappears to have been part owner, of the vessel, the Catch Prosperous, of Marblehead. Among the creditors of his estate is the name of "Jon fabins "to whom the estate was debtor to i the amount of £3-00-00. This is the first mention of the name of Fabens found upon the records of this region. Marblehead was settled in 1635 by Mr.Allerton and others, the General Court voting that year "that there should be aplantation at Marblehead." On May 2, 1648, the town contained forty-eight families. Itwas incorporated in1649, and in 1674 itcontained 114 householders and others. JoD fabins must, therefore, have been among the ear­ liest inhabitants of that ancient town, and old enough at the date of the above inventory, "the second day of July, 1668," to be engaged in business; itis not un­ reasonable, therefore, to suppose him to have been born previous to 1643. The name, as found upon the earlier records, is spelled ina variety of ways, Fabian, Fabin, Fabins and Fabens. We find it spelled in two ways in the same document, which was not unusual inearly times. (3) 4 Inthis paper, Jo* Fabens, the creditor of Thomas Dill, is assumed to he the ancestor of all in this region who have borne and now bear that name, and from "James Fabins, fisherman," whose name is found soon after, the present and intervening persons of the name can be dis­ tinctly traced. His marriage with Joanna Barnes and a long list of their children, with the dates of their bap­ tisms, are to be found recorded upon the books of the first church of Marblehead. Among the records of early Deeds of Essex County, there appear several conveyances of real estate inMarble­ head, signed by James Fubens; and Joanna, his wife, conveys her right of dower in the property. Under the title "Fabens," Savage, who is considered authority on such matters, does not mention the Marble­ head family, though many of the name were living there at the time he wrote, and others in the city of Salem. He says "Faben, Fabin, Fabins: John on a jury in New Hampshire, 1656, married, perhaps, one of the daughters of Edward Gillman. Fabyan is a name in that region, and John Fabyan, Esq., of the province, died in 1757. Eliz :.aged 16, came in the Elizabeth and Ann 1653, but we do not know who was her father." Various places have been mentioned as the fatherland of the family, none more likely to be correct than that tradition which would make them of French descent, from the island of Jersey ;but this is wholly without any his­ torical foundation. The men of Marblehead were mostly engaged in the fisheries in the early colonial days ;they have since fur­ nished hardy, intrepid and patriotic seamen and soldiers in time of war. The Fabens family, of that old and liberty-loving stock, were no exceptions, but have con­ 5 tributed their share of men ready to lay down their lives intheir country's service. Manyof the individuals mentioned below were seamen, and have become shipmasters. It may be stated that no connection has been found between the Marblehead family and the Fabyan family of New Hampshire. 1Jonathan Fabins was in Marblehead in 1668, at which time he appears as a creditor of the Estate of Thomas Dill,deceased; he was probably at that time, at least, twenty-five years old;of his birthplace, parents or wife, we know nothing. We assume that he was born about 1640, and that he was the father of 2 James, b. ab't 1665. 2 James (Jonathan 1) of Marblehead, Mass., born about 1665, married Joanna Barnes, of Marblehead, Oct. 15, 1687. She was born in 1667, and died after 1750.1 James Fattens died January, 1729. His son, James F., was the administrator of his estate. Several conveyances of real estate in Marblehead by James and wife Joanna are upon the Essex Deeds. He calls himself "Fisherman."' 1Alist of names mnde in 1790, of yery aged members ofthe lintchurch of Marblehead,* contains" the name of"Joanna Fabins. aged 83."

  • Authoritative Modes of Speech in a Central Himalayan Ritual
    Oral Tradition, 30/2 (2016):195-210 Authoritative Modes of Speech in a Central Himalayan Ritual John Leavitt Introduction1 Among the most striking aspects of the culture of the Central Himalayan region (this includes the Indian state of Uttarakhand and the westernmost part of Nepal) are the development of bardic narration and the social role played by rituals of divine possession. These practices interact variously in different sub-regions (for examples, see Lecomte-Tilouine 2009; Hitchcock and Jones 1976).2 My concern here is with one of these configurations: that of a set of rituals known as jāgar (in colloquial Kumaoni jàg), since they take place at night, which are performed in the central part of Kumaon, the former kingdom that makes up the eastern section of Uttarakhand. The purpose of the Kumaoni jāgar is to manifest one or several local divinities. This is done either for the good of a family, in which case the ritual is held in the family’s home, or for the good of the village or this “whole created world” (yo sṛṣṭi sansār), in which case it takes place in a temple or courtyard, both called dhuṇi, dedicated to the legendary sage Guru Gorakhnāth. In the case of a house jāgar, which is what interests us here, the ritual is organized by the family concerned and actually run by a semi-professional singer/drummer—since his primary role is to perform narrative, I will be calling him a bard—in this case called a jagariyā. Under the jagariyā’s direction, the god in question, one of a regional set of gods held to be subordinate to the great Hindu gods, enters into the body of a medium, called ḍaṅgariyā, “beast of burden,” or ghoṛi, “little horse.” The god then dances in the medium’s body, distributes sacred ash to the assembled people, and speaks out of the medium’s mouth in a dialogue with the jagariyā and members of the household.

The purchase includes two thousand feet of shoreline, a 200-foot pier, and eight acres of wooded land near Route 88 and was acquired as part of the proposed seven-lot Spears Hill subdivision project. The land purchase Iensures Cumberland residents will have access to the shore and waters of Casco Bay. Equally important, the property contains a prehistoric Native American site and was once the location of Cumberland’s town farm, thereby providing a connection to the area’s original inhabitants and the early history of the town. In 1979, Art Spiess and Bob Bradley of the Maine Historic Preservation Commission surveyed the Cumberland shoreline and identified an area of archaeological resource potential, designated ME 14.63, stretching from approximately 1,500 feet south of Town Landing Road to the end of Wildwood Blvd.

HARVARD C OLLEGE LIBRARY t ✓ -t-O t ^ —fro/I- .- f [•RES8F O CA8B, TIFrANY AND COMPANY, HARTFORD, CONN. PREFACE. The f ollowing pages contain a selection from the Gene alogical Notes made by my uncle, Nathaniel Goodwin, from time to time after his appointment to the office of Judge of Probate for the district of Hartford, in 1833, and prepared for publication by him during the last three or four of the latter years of his life. They were not designed by him to be complete genealogies even of the families which * are t reated of, but, as the title indicates, genealogical notes to assist others in tracing out their family histories. Mr. Goodwin had begun to print the work, making his final cor rections as the proof-sheets were brought to him, and had proceeded as far as page 68, when the printing was suspend ed, as he hoped temporarily, by a severe attack of disease, but as the event proved, finally, so far as he was concerned, by his death. At his request, made a few days before his death, and the desire of his executors, the manuscripts were placed in the hands of Henry Barnard, LL. D., President of the Connecticut Historical Society, who had rendered my uncle similar aid in his former publications, to see through the press ; but the pressure of his engagements obliged him, after the supervision of some fifty pages, to relinquish all further care of the work, beyond preparing a iv P REFACE.

  • Thomas Leyet
    16 Thus the line of Christopher Levett contained no near relative named Thomas. Itmay be that our Thomas Levet was a distant connection, but this is unlikely. New information concerning Christopher Levett's last voyage to New England is contained in a Chancery proceeding begun in 1631 by his widowagainst Thomas Wright and Robert Gough of Bristol, owners of the ship Porcupine. The proceedings give in detail the sailing agreement and mention the grant of 6000 acres to Levett. Concerning John Leavitt of Hingham, Mass., Mr. Sheldon Leavitt, Jr., writes that the earliest known record appears inDorchester, Mass., where in 1634 land was granted tohim by the town. In 1636 he was made a freeman of Hingham, where first a house-lot and in the course of time much other land was granted to him. His first wife (possibly, according to Pope, the Mary Lovitt of the Dorchester Church) died at Hingham 4 July 1646, and he married for his second wife, 16 Dec. 1646, Sarah, daughter of Edward Gilman,then of Hingham, Mass., and later of Exeter, N. H. For many years he was a deacon of the church at Hingham and a selectman of the town, which he represented for several sessions in the General Court. "He died in 1691, leaving a will,filed inBoston, inwhich he calls himself a tayler," and spells his name as above. Some of hig children moved to Exeter, and became the ancestors of a distinguished family of Leavitts there, among whom was Dudley Leavitt, the compiler <tf an excellent Farmer's Almanac.

  • Early Stage University Technology Transfer and Commercialization Analysis
    Early Stage University Technology Transfer and Commercialization Analysis By John Leavitt, Ph.D. et al. I. Impact of Technology Licensing on Regional Economic Development Universities are hotbeds for innovation and entrepreneurship – take, for example, Stanford University, MIT, and Harvard. In the case of Stanford all you have to do is to look up Page Mill Road in Palo Alto, California, and the surrounding Silicone Valley to see the evidence of entrepreneurial activity that spread from Stanford; alternatively, look around Cambridge, Massachusetts, to see the monumental economic impact that these universities have spawned in their region. During the last decade we started to hear state governors1 advocate a role of economic development for their major state universities which in many cases have been very responsive to this call. In 2011, a survey by the international Association of Technology Managers (AUTM) determined that universities in the United States generated $1.8 billion in revenues in the form of licensing royalties in that year.2 Some examples of modest successes are as follows: the University of Illinois in Chicago and Urbana– Champaign out-licensed 100 patented technologies to the private sector and spun off 21 new companies; likewise the two Iowa state universities out-licensed 70 technologies and spun off four new companies; and the University of Utah out-licensed 81 technologies and spun off 19 new companies in that one year alone.3 On a larger scale the University of California system with branches in San Diego, Irvine, Riverside, Los Angeles, Berkeley, San Francisco, and other locations out-licensed 292 technologies to the private sector in 2011 and spun-off 58 new companies; and the University of Texas system out-licensed 157 technologies and spun off 20 new companies.3 All of these examples are economic engines for their respective states.

DESCENDANTS OF JOHN LEAVITT THE IMMIGRANT THROUGH HIS SON, ISRAEL AND LYDIA JACKSON Printed in U.S. A. by the EVANS PRINTING CO. CONCORD, N. H. Preface I have faithfully copied data, pertaining to Leavitts, for more than twenty years, I have tried to secure correct dates of family records but finding dissimilarity in the records, errors in census reports, vital sta­ tistics, town reports, tombstones, and even family Bibles, it is impos­ sible to secure absolutely authentic data in a work of substantial quantity. I do not claim to be always correct and will gladly correct any errors. I do believe my work to be as correct as is humanly possible from existing sources. Relatives, a tremendous task is completed more for love of you than for any selfish desire. However, I enjoyed the work immensely. I gained the acquaintance of hundreds of lovely "Leavitts," having corre­ sponded with descendants in all but one state of the Union, and in foreign countries. When I reach Heaven I am sure there will be a host of Leavitts awaiting my arrival. Please consider this preface a letter direct from me to you, my thou­ sands of relatives! I desire to thank every one who so kindly helped and especially do I thank several who contributed the proceeds of many years' labor.
