VOL. 1. BOSTON: ALFRED MUDGE & SON, PRINTERS, 24: Erankmn Street. 1 8 8 7. .PI^ir?.TgRSj (i^_BOSTON(^ PREFACE HE desire to know of the principal incidents in the lives of our progenitors, as well as the places of their births, and their origin, has induced a goodly number to make such researches for personal accounts of those persons and families who migrated to this country and became the tirst permanent settlers, as the records preserved have afforded though in many cases these ; investigations have discovered but a meagre account, yet they have nevertheless encouraged the compilation of many of the finnily genealogies that have been published. " It is the purpose of this work, Old Families of Concord, Massachusetts, and their Descendants in Part to the Present Generation," to give genealogies of some of the families who first settled there, and of their descendants ; but it is in no wise intended to give an account of Concord, its settlement, history, or growth, excepting as may appear in the personal relations of some herein noted. The genealogical tables begin with items respecting the families of Barrett, Blood, Brooks, Brown, Bulkeley, Buttrick, Conant, Davis, Farrar, Flint, Hartwell, Hayward, Hosmer, Hubbard, Jones, Minott> Potter, Prescott, Wheeler, Willard, and Wood, all of whom were known early in the settlement. "The plantation of Musketaquid (Concord) was settled by Rev. Peter Bulkeley, from Odell, England, associated with Simon Willard, a merchant from Hoi'smonden, England, who brought with them about twelve families, other families joining the plantation within a few years succeeding. Excepting Bulkeley and Flint, they were plain people, of humble station in their own country, and of small means, who hoped in the New World to better their condition, and to enjoy unmolested the simpler form of religious worship that their tastes and consciences approved." • The original homes of the pioneers had been widely separated : Rev. Peter Bulkeley came from Bedfordshire; Simon Willard, James Hosmer, and probably Luke Potter were from Kent; William Buttrick, from Kingston on Thames; and Thomas Flint and William Wood, prol)ably from Derbyshire. To make a record of the descendants of any one of these families to the present time, extending as it does over a period of more than two hundred and fifty years, and to make such a record tolerably complete, is a matter attended with much difficulty. As much as could be obtained from imperfect I'ecords, and that which has come from various other sources, are recorded. That the early settlers in many cases are not directly connected with English ancestry is readily explained by the experience of Samuel Gardner Drake, as given in his "Founders of New England": — "Whoever goes to England expecting to find the genealogy of any particular family settled in America at an early date, is pretty sure, in at least nine cases out of ten, to meet with disappointment. The reason of this uncertainty is easily explained. In the first place, persons who emigrate are not often possessors of real estate, and hence deeds and wills seldom furnish indications referable to them ; they leave no deeds or wills in the fatherland by which they can be traced. In the next place, very few emigrants from England were landholders, for the reason that for ages little or no land has been for sale in quantities within the reach of persons of moderate estates. As the great body of emigrants to Now England took no pains to transmit to their descendants any account of their ancestors, or even the places whence they came, it is pretty evident they had nothing to expect from the one, or any special regard for the other." PRE FAG E. " Thus genealogy becomes a science, and the leanieil pursued it as a useful and necessary branch of knowledge ; and as such it is generally pursued. There are those who pursue it with a notion that they are heirs to a great estate in England, left by some unknown ancestor. They ma}^ thus add something to the science of genealogy, and enlarge their own knowledge, ^vhile the}^ will find no necessity to enlarge their pockets." Many works of this class have proved a disappointment to those for whom they were primarily designed, owing to the complicated manner of indicating the succession of families. The compiler believes that his simple method of tabulating the I'ccords (patent applied for) will make it an easy matter to trace out the direct lines of descent, and the collateral branches as well. A particular advantage, aside from the readiness witii which family connections are traced, is that all the* essential genealogical facts of each family are discovered at the first glance, while the l)lank spaces indicate if any data is wanting. In these blank spaces the names or dates missing may be written, if ever ascertained; or in the cases of the persons now living, the records of the facts of marriage and death may be inserted as the^' occur ; and there is added also to the volume several pages in lilank, particularly intended to be used for the record of future generations of any families that the possessors of the volume may wish, together with any biographical notes desired for preservation. Tlie comi)iler desires particularly to acknowledge his indebtedness for the ver}^ considerable assistance rendered to him by Mr. Charles Francis Potter, of Boston, to whose indefatigable efforts (and at his own expense) many of the complete records of families in the work are due ; and to Mr. George Tolman, the accomi)lished genealogist of Concord, for iiis valualile aid, not forgetting also Shattuck's "History of Concord," and Walcott's " Concord in the Colonial Period," — works to which every one must refer for information res})ecting Ccmcord and its history.

  • William Preston and the Revolutionary Settlement
    Journal of Backcountry Studies EDITOR’S NOTE: This is the third and last installment of the author’s 1990 University of Maryland dissertation, directed by Professor Emory Evans, to be republished in JBS. Dr. Osborn is President of Pacific Union College. William Preston and the Revolutionary Settlement BY RICHARD OSBORN Patriot (1775-1778) Revolutions ultimately conclude with a large scale resolution in the major political, social, and economic issues raised by the upheaval. During the final two years of the American Revolution, William Preston struggled to anticipate and participate in the emerging American regime. For Preston, the American Revolution involved two challenges--Indians and Loyalists. The outcome of his struggles with both groups would help determine the results of the Revolution in Virginia. If Preston could keep the various Indian tribes subdued with minimal help from the rest of Virginia, then more Virginians would be free to join the American armies fighting the English. But if he was unsuccessful, Virginia would have to divert resources and manpower away from the broader colonial effort to its own protection. The other challenge represented an internal one. A large number of Loyalist neighbors continually tested Preston's abilities to forge a unified government on the frontier which could, in turn, challenge the Indians effectivel y and the British, if they brought the war to Virginia. In these struggles, he even had to prove he was a Patriot. Preston clearly placed his allegiance with the revolutionary movement when he joined with other freeholders from Fincastle County on January 20, 1775 to organize their local county committee in response to requests by the Continental Congress that such committees be established.

Submitted for the degree of M.A., 1990. Department of History, University of Durham. This study concentrates on the period from the introduction of the Tallmadge amendment in February 1819 to the settiing of the controversy with the famous Compromise in March 1820. The Missouri crisis is erroneously viewed as the product of politics first, with antislavery a poor second. There are examples of growing sectional antagonism before 1819. But at no time was consistent sectional unity possible on economic and political issues. Only slavery produced the unity and strength of feeling to provoke a major sectional conflict.

FROM THE COLLECTIONS “A Letter from Joshua Cushman” BY MATTHEW MASON Brigham Young University N LATE 1820, Mainers sent their new state’s first two senators to Congress. It was a triumphant time for those who had pushed long Iand hard for Maine’s separation from Massachusetts and admission into the Union. They greeted the seating of their delegation to Congress in November 1820 with great relief, for from early January through early March of that same year they had seen their state’s admission tied to the extremely controversial admission of Missouri. Only if Missouri could be admitted without a restriction on its citizens’ right to hold slaves, the congressional leadership had declared, could Maine enter. The linkage of the two states put Mainers in an unusual position. While the rest of the Union knew this controversy as “the Missouri ques- tion,” Mainers tended for good reason to call it “the Maine and Missouri question.” The demand for statehood worked in favor of Maine’s con- gressional representatives who opposed the proposed restriction on slav- ery in Missouri.

Matted, hinged at upper edge. Printed in three full columns. A few old folds, Very Good. The Convention met in Bangor on July 9, 1828. After endorsing candidates for various State offices, the Convention issued and printed its 'Address... to the Electors of the Counties of Somerset and Penobscot', focusing on the upcoming presidential contest. Praising the incumbent, John Quincy Adams, the Address proclaims, "It is sufficient to say of him, that talents of the highest order are joined to uncommon attainments... We would ask you to turn from the rantings of demagogues, the bold fictions of an irresponsible press... Is not our country moving on peacefully and prosperously in the great march of improvement?" Adams's opponent, General Jackson, is unsuited for the presidency: "His character has been formed as a military chieftain... He is rash, headstrong, impetuous and unreflecting-- that he knows no law but his own will."
