FOPR AMERICAN GENERATIONS. By Hbniiv Allen Hazen, A.M., New Haven, Conn. THE origin of this family beyond the sea bas not been traced. Recent information locates a family bearing the name in Newcastle-on-Tyne, in the last century, and possibly the fact may atFord a clue to the English home of the Puritan Edward. 1. Edward' IIazen was the immigrant ancestor. The first mention :•('' of the name, which has been found, occurs in thu records of Rowley. " Elizabeth, wife of Edward Hassen, was buryed 1GI9 Sept. 18." Ho was a man of substance and influence in the town ; was overseer or Selectman in 1650, 1651, 1654, 1660, 1661, 1665 and 1668, and judge of delinquents 1666. In the records of surveys, Feb. 4, 1661, he appears entitled to "seven gates." These related to cattle rights on the town commons; the average number being three, and no one had more than seven. The inven- tory of his estate amounted to £404 : 7 : 8. Of his first wife, Elizabeth, nothing is known ; or where or how long they had been married. He married (2) in March, 1650, Hannah, dau. of Thomas ilnd Hannah- Grant. He was buried in Rowley, July 22, 1683. His widow m.

He is not mentioned in the distribution of his father 8 astate ; while the children of Hannah, deceased, do re- ceive their portion ; and Thomas receives two of the eleven shares, or the double portion of the oldest sou. John must therefore have died without issue. IV. Thomas, b. Feb. 2«, 1657-8; d. in Norwich, Ct., April 12, 1735. V. Edward, b. Sept. 10, 1660 ; d. 1748. vi. IsAHELL', b. July 21, 1662; m.
