JOHN and JANE MATHEW. He was most likely named, as the second son, after his mother’s surname. This seems to be a custom that appears among landed gentry and in several St. John generations. The first son is usually named after the paternal family by either taking the father or grandfather or current tenement-in- chief’s name and the second son takes the mother’s surname as a first name. With his father, Thomas, being a younger son himself, his marriage to the female heir of the Mathew family offered Thomas or one of his sons a greater chance of rising himself to tenant-in-chief of the Mathew estate.

Index ........ iii PART I. HISTORICAL AND BIOGRAPHICAL PREFACE. HERE are people in our time who treat the inquiries of the genealogist with indifference, and even with contempt. His researches seem to them a waste of time and energy. Interest in ancestors, love of family and kindred, those subtle questions of race, origin, even of life itself, which they involve, are quite beyond their com prehension. They live only in the present, care nothing for the past and little for the future; for " he who cares not whence he cometh, cares not whither he goeth." When such persons are approached with questions of ancestry, they retire to their stronghold of apathy; and the querist learns, without diffi culty, that whether their ancestors were vile or illustrious, virtuous or vicious, or whether, indeed, they ever had any, is to them a matter of supreme indifference.

  • The Canterbury Association
    The Canterbury Association (1848-1852): A Study of Its Members’ Connections By the Reverend Michael Blain Note: This is a revised edition prepared during 2019, of material included in the book published in 2000 by the archives committee of the Anglican diocese of Christchurch to mark the 150th anniversary of the Canterbury settlement. In 1850 the first Canterbury Association ships sailed into the new settlement of Lyttelton, New Zealand. From that fulcrum year I have examined the lives of the eighty-four members of the Canterbury Association. Backwards into their origins, and forwards in their subsequent careers. I looked for connections. The story of the Association’s plans and the settlement of colonial Canterbury has been told often enough. (For instance, see A History of Canterbury volume 1, pp135-233, edited James Hight and CR Straubel.) Names and titles of many of these men still feature in the Canterbury landscape as mountains, lakes, and rivers. But who were the people? What brought these eighty-four together between the initial meeting on 27 March 1848 and the close of their operations in September 1852? What were the connections between them? In November 1847 Edward Gibbon Wakefield had convinced an idealistic young Irishman John Robert Godley that in partnership they could put together the best of all emigration plans. Wakefield’s experience, and Godley’s contacts brought together an association to promote a special colony in New Zealand, an English society free of industrial slums and revolutionary spirit, an ideal English society sustained by an ideal church of England. Each member of these eighty-four members has his biographical entry.

ADVERTISEMENT TO THE READER. The design of the compiler of this work has not been to -write a History of Norwalk; but to copy from the Records whatever mat- ters appeared to be of any historical interest j and in all cases to let the Records speak for themselves. The genealogical registers are very imperfect ; and if any fami- lies are omitted, it is because they were not put upon the public re- cords and because the ; compiler, after repeatedly advertising, and alter some months' delay, has failed to obtain them.

BRIDGMA>" 1907 Half-tones of Portraits and Interiors from Elmer Chickering the -'Royal Photographer," 21 West Street, Boston, Mass.

Composition and Presswork by the Memorial Press. Plymouth. Mass. PREFACE. It has become an axiom that every Legislature has its own special ana peculiar features. "Sufficient unto the (legislative) day is the evil there- of." Fortunately the Legislature of 1!)07. in sharp contrast with most of recent years, had no "investigation," although it came perilously near one. Never before was there a single measure involving so vast financial interests as the legislation involving the proposed union, or "merging," of the New York, Xew Haven & Hartford Railroad Company with that of the Boston & Maine; and certainly no legislative hearing ever before had before it within the same hour two railroad presidents of so great influ- ence as President Mellen of the former and President Tuttle of the lat- ter, both of whom were before the committee on railroads on the same afternoon. This session was marked also by the passage of the "anti- bucket-shop" legislation, and of acts to enable savings hanks to furnish life msurance at cost, and to compel one day's rest in seven as well as to perfect the eight-hour law in accordance with the wishes of organized labor.

His researches seem to them a waste of time and energy. Interest in ancestors, love of family and kindred, those subtle questions ofrace, origin, even oflife itself, which they involve,are quite beyond their comprehension.
