In answer to many inquiries, the following regarding the “ Derivation of the Surname,” under the title of “The Name of Chaffee in England,” is given verbatim from “The Chaffee Genealogy,’’ Appendix, page 585:
“ From the Etymolgical Dictionary of Family and Christian Names by William Arthur, M. A., published New York, 1857. Chaffee (Fr.) Chafe, to heat to grow warm or angry, (Fr.) Chauffer, to warm, to cannonade, attack briskly. The following is given in a book called The Norman People, which was published by Henry S. King & Co., of London, England, in 1874: From page 184, “ Cafe, or Chaff, from chauve, bald (Lower). Henry, Nicholas, Robert, Ranulph le Chauve, or Calvus, 1180-95, in Normandy (Mag. Rot. Scac). These names frequently occur in England, 13th century and later.” From page 193, “ Chaffey or Chaffy, a form of Chafe or Chaff.” Combe, O. Fr.-That unwatered portion of a valley which forms its continuation beyond and above the most elevated spring that issues into it. A deep valley where the sides come together in a concave form.
Then follows an account of Chaffcombe or Chafecombe in Somerset county, England, taken from a History Of Somerset, by Rev. John Collinson, published in 1791 at Bath by R. Crutwell, Vol. 3 page 115. In the Conquerer’s time this little parish belonged to the Bishop of Coutances, and the ancient name was Caffecome, which is compounded of the Saxon lay, sharp, and lomb, valley.
Another account in “ The Chaffee Genealogy ” of the derivation of the surname is taken from an article in Devonshire Wills by the Rev. W. K. W. Chafy, D. D., of Rous Lench Court, Evesham England, which says: “ The Chafys derive their name from their ancient heritage, “ Chafecombe,” now Chaffcombe, near Chard, which is the ‘ceaf cumbe’ (in English, the light or breezy valley) of the Saxon period, and which was held by their ancestor, Hugo the Thegn, or Thane, in the days of Ethelred ‘the Unready,’ and by his son, Raynald Fitz-Hugh, in those of Edward ‘ the Confessor.”
“ But although the Chafys can thus trace back with unerring certainty to a period long anterior to the conquest, and so justify the assertion inscribed on the ancient tomb of one of them in Devonshire, as to his own identity with the “perantiqua” race of the Chafes of Chafecombe, yet they are not, paternally at least, of Saxon origin, which at once accounts for their continued possession of Chafecombe under Norman rule, for though their representative then nominally became sub-tenant under the Bishop of Coutance, he practically remained the owner of the land of his ancestors under the newly-devised feudal system. This was “ Ralph Fitz-Reginald,” the grandson of Hugo or Hugh, whose own names and those of his immediate posterity and their adoption of the Norman “ Fitz ” as expressive of their parentage, sufficiently prove that the long prevalent idea as to the “ Saxon origin of the Chafecombe family ” is as erroneous as the position of its earliest ascertained members in Saxon England is unique and interesting.”
“ Hugo,” who is said by many of his English detractors to have been of “ mean x ORIGIN OF THE NAME CHAFFEE origin, and the son of a French churl,” was the confidential adviser of Emma of Nomandy, second wife of King Ethelred, and came to England in her train in the year 1002.
This article, which is several pages in length, goes on to show that Robert Fitz-Ralph, a grandson of Hugo, was described as “Lord of Chafecombe,” and as holding lands in the Reign of Henry I. From him descended the Chafes of England, and the descent is brought nearly to the close of the last century.
A list is given of many English wills, records of marriages, baptisms, burials, tombstone records, christenings, etc., of persons bearing the name of Chaffy, under its varied spellings, the dates varying from 1552 to 1698. The Christian name of Thomas appears about twenty times, but there is no proof that any of these Chaffys were relatives of Thomas Chaffe of Hingham, Hull and Rehoboth, Mass.
“The Chaffee Genealogy’’ gives a picture of the old church at Chaffcombe. The nearest approach to our surname in Scotland is Mac Haffie or Haffie. William Chaffy appears among the “ 49 ’’ officers in Ireland in 1649 in the time of Charles I.
In 1886 the surname did not appear in any of the city directories of Ireland.
The surname has not been found at all in Wales.
The surname has not been found in the directories of the principal cities of France, but the surname Chouffet, pronounced Shufa, occurs there.
The descendants of Thomas Chaffe, of Hingham, Mass., find no coat of arms connected with his surname.
There are coats of arms of the surname used in England, but neither these nor. the one used by the Rev. W. K. W. Chafy have been proven to be connected in any way with the surname in the United States.
______
The more common pronunciation of the name “Chaffee” is with the “a” short as in the word chaff, but in Berkshire, Vt., the name is pronounced with the long sound of “a’’ as in chafe. The latter pronunciation is general among the descendants of the Chaffees of Berkshire wherever found in United States or Canada, although there are some exceptions.

1 INTRODUCTION
“The Berkshire, VT., Chaffees” is a record of one line of the sixth generation of Chaffees descended from Thomas Chaffe, the immigrant ancestor. Comfort Chaffee was but one of nearly or quite one hundred fifty male descendants in the sixth generation bearing the name of Chaffee (under its varied spellings) who married and had descendants. Having settled in Berkshire, VT, a town bordering Canada, and quite removed from his boyhood home of Rehoboth, MA, the family lost touch with their Massachusetts relatives, and were thus largely left out of “The Chaffee Genealogy,“ which was compiled by William H. Chaffee, and published in 1909. This record is a continuation of the two previously published genealogies of the descendants of Comfort Chaffee. The first edition of the descendants of Comfort Chaffee was compiled by Almer J. Elliot, and published by the Gilpin Printing Company in Richford, VT, covering the years 1801-1911. Photographs of Comforts Chaffee’s children and their spouses (except for Reuben and Comfort Jr.,) were included, along with a photograph of the Berkshire homestead and a page from Lucy Stow’s bible. The second edition was a reprint of the first, followed by information compiled by Grace (Chaffee) Smith of Berkshire, VT, covering the years 1801-1952, bringing the descendants of Comfort as up-to-date as possible to that point. This third edition of “The Berkshire, VT., Chaffees” covers the years 1801-2015, and has been compiled by Kathy Kennett, Ida Burdick and John Weld, the responsibility and time consuming research being passed from one to the other. Much of the earlier information has been copied “verbatim” from the two previous editions, with corrections and additions to that information having been made. I decided (probably to the chagrin of the others) to condense the chapters of the first five generations and that of Comfort himself, leaving out all of his land transactions except the ones that showed the places to which he moved and when he did so. I have also left out the extra genealogies of Comfort’s ancestors to save space and time. Part of the section on Braddock Chaffee has been left in to show the connection, but has been condensed as well. As with all genealogies, this is not a complete compilation of Comfort’s descendants. Although many of them stayed in Berkshire and the neighboring towns, many more made that push westward and lost all contact with their Vermont relatives, just as Comfort did with his after moving north. There was not time enough to try and locate as well as contact so many people for information; the book taking longer than expected to complete as it is. Our apologies to everyone who was omitted; it certainly wasn’t on purpose. This genealogy, again as with all others (whether they want to accept it or not), will not be free of errors. With so many dates and information compiled from different sources, mistakes are bound to happen, whether it’s from the compilers themselves or from those who provided information. We humbly apologize for any mistakes there may be. A word of caution to those doing genealogical research. State vital records often contain errors in dates. Vital records are cards of information on births, deaths and
2 INTRODUCTION
marriages that were written or typed by the town clerks and sent to the state archives. Mistakes were often made, and they should not be used as the sole source for information unless that is all you have ( I admit that I‘ve had to do just that at times). If at all possible, find the original birth, death or marriage records, and even then, you will sometimes find that the birth date given in the death certificate isn’t the same as that on the birth record. Dates on headstones sometimes aren’t always correct either. With conflicting dates, it can sometimes be very difficult to determine which sources’ date to use. I have tried, when possible, to use the dates on birth, death and marriage records for each. Names are also sometimes spelled differently on birth and death records to add to the confusion. In short, every source of information is prone to error. Words of thanks are given to everyone who provided information for this edition of “The Berkshire, VT., Chaffees,” whether it was from receiving a personal contact or from responding to the article “Finding Comfort in Your Family Tree“ printed in the St. Albans Messenger and the County Courier“ quite a few years ago. Without your help, it could not have been accomplished. I only wish more had done the same to make this even more complete. I also wish to thank ancestry.com and all of its contributors for a large portion of information contained in this volume. When the flash drive was put in my lap at the annual Chaffee reunion held in August of 2014, I decided to use ancestry.com to see if I could add any more information to the book, and found more than I ever imagined. This volume ballooned from 367 pages to over 700 with the many descendants of Comfort Chaffee I was able to find through its use. I was also able to fill in many missing death dates as well. The use of the articles and obituaries provided by ancestry.com and its contributors was also very helpful in obtaining the personal information of some of the descendants of Comfort. Special thanks goes to Kathy Kennett and to Ida Burdick for all of their years of hard work put into this edition. Without the timeless hours they spent from this book’s inception, it would not exist today.
John Weld President, Chaffee Association
Note: The name, Chaffee, is usually pronounced with a short “a” as in cat, but Comfort and his descendants have always pronounced it with a long “a” as in cake. This is said to be the way one tells if they are descended from Comfort Chaffee.
FIVE GENERATIONS OF 3 CHAFFEE ANCESTORS
FIRST GENERATION
Thomas Chaffe, immigrant ancestor, possibly the son of William Chaffee and Margaret Burgoyne, was born in the year 1610 in England. He arrived (according to the “U.S. and Canada, Passenger and Immigration Index, 1500s-1900s”) in Hingham, MA in the year 1635, where he received a “planting lott” of seven acres, a plot of salt marsh of two acres “be they more or less as they are measured” and for a “house Lott” two acres of land butting upon Batchellor street eastward on July 17, 1637. In October of the same year, Thomas was granted ten acres of land “lying upon the great playne.” In the year of 1642, Thomas is found in the town of Nantucket, MA (later named Hull), where he was granted a lot of ten acres, and was known as a fisherman and a farmer. It was also here that he most likely married Dorothy (last name possibly Thomas) about 1638. Copious notes and manuscripts were left by the Rev. Peter Hobart, pastor of the church at Hingham, MA from September 1635 until his death in 1678, with no mention of Thomas Chaffe, his wife or children. The town records of Hull prior to 1657 have been lost. Somewhere between the years of 1657 and 1660, Thomas and his family removed to the town of Rehoboth, MA, a town originally called “Seecunk” or “Seeconk” by the natives. “Thomas Chaffey” was listed as one of the Proprietors as early as December 25, 1660. The first recorded land purchase by Thomas was on February th9 of the same year. During King Philip’s War, Thomas and his family, as well as near neighbors, doubtless lived in “Chaffe’s Garrison”, a stone building which stood near his house. It was during this period that he bought of Francis Stevens, his house, orchard and house lot, containing about six acres of land and lying in Rehoboth. The deed was acknowledged September 20, 1675. The last mention of Thomas Chaffe was recorded in the report of the town meeting on March 16, 1679-80. His will was made on July 25, 1680, and was exhibited on March 6th, 1683, shortly after his death. An inventory being taken on May 15th of the same year, with the value of the personal property given at what would now be a little less than $75.00. There were four parcels of land aggregating 110 acres. Everything was divided in half between his two sons. There are no records of his wife’s death.
Children, probably born in Nantucket (now Hull), MA: Nathaniel Chaffe, b. (about) 1643; m. Experience Bliss. Joseph Chaffe, b. (about) 1645; m. Annis Martin.

wife, that he died of grief a few hours after her death.” He has resided in Swansea, MA, but was invited to return to Rehoboth in 1674-75, with land being offered as an inducement. Mr. Chaffe was a blacksmith, served two terms as constable, and was also a grand juryman. He left his home to his youngest son, Noah, “for and in Consideration of Love, good Will & Affection which I have and do bear towards my youngest son Noah Chaffe of ye Town aforesaid who is yet with me and is to Dwell with me and to take Care of Me and my wife and to provide for each all.” The old burying ground in the Congregational Church, formerly in Rehoboth, later in Seekonk, MA, and now in the village of Rumford, East Providence, RI, is supposed to be the burial place of Nathaniel and Experience, though no stones to their memory remain.

Jonathan was variously designated in deeds as a “yeoman,” “husbandman,” and “mason.” In the old burial ground in Rumford, East Providence, RI (formerly in Rehoboth, MA), is a stone with the inscription: ” Jonathan Chaffe Departed this life December 31, 1766 in the 89th year of his age.”

Comfort Chaffee, (Nathaniel Jr., Nathaniel, Jonathan, Nathaniel, Thomas); was born Mar. 9, 1756, Rehoboth, MA. His boyhood and early manhood days were without a doubt passed in the town of his birth, but no record has been found of him until he enlisted in the Revolutionary War, his military record taken from the “Massachusetts Soldiers and Sailors in the War of the Revolution” being as follows:
“Chafee, Comfort. Capt. John Pain’s co.; list of men stationed at Winter Hill and Dorchester for about two months; dismissed April 1, 1776; also Capt. Carpenter’s co., Col. Simeon Cary’s regt., Gen. John Fellows brigade; list of men stationed at New York and White Plains for 5 months; dismissed Dec. 1, 1776; also, Capt. Hill’s co., Col. John Dagget’s regt.; list of men stationed at Bristol for 3 months from Dec. 28, 1776. “Chaffee, Comfort. Private, Capt. Nathaniel Carpenter’s co.,, Col. John Hathaway’s regt.; service from Apr. 21, 1777, 23 days at Tiverton, R. I. ; also, Capt. Nathaniel Carpenter’s co., Col. Josiah Whitney’s regt.; service between May 13, 1777, and July 5, 1777, 7 days; roll includes travel on march from Point Judith in South Kingston, R.I., to Rehoboth. “Chaffee, Comfort. Private, Lieut. Samuel Brown’s co., Col. Thomas Carpenter’s regt.; marched from Rehoboth to Tiverton, R.I. on the alarm of Aug. 1, 1780; discharged Aug. 8, 1780; service, 9 days, under Gen. Heath.”
In speaking of the military record of Comfort Chaffee, “The Chaffee Genealogy” says: “At one time he is said to have been attached to George Washington’s staff, attending to the transportation of his tent and baggage. He received from the state of Massachusetts two hundred acres of land in Maine (then a part of Massachusetts), as bounty. In 1818, when a resident of Berkshire, VT, he applied for a pension. Comfort married Sep. 25, 1781 in Grafton, MA to Mrs. Lucy (Stow) Hoyt, daughter of David and Lucy (Carpenter) Stow, and widow of Reuben Hoyt. She was born Apr. 30, 1758 in Grafton, MA. In connection with the marriage of Lucy Stow to Reuben Hoyt, the writer of the first edition was in possession of a document of which the following is the text, the same having been probably used in procuring a pension for Lucy (Stow) Chaffee in her old age:
A memirandum of Dates First I was maryed to Reuben Hoyt June 20th 1779 in the third year of his service in the Continental Army for the town of Newbrantry County of Worcester in Massachusetts when I was maryed he expected to return to the Army but was violently seased with rushing blood and it brought on the Consumption and was ever after wile he lived under the Doctors Care he Died February the 4 1781 he the Said Hoyt never after I was acquainted with him never received any pay from the Army for his services whilst A Souldier “Witness my hand

On the reverse side is this notation: “In a case where the claimant has married after the decease of the husband for whose services she may claim the Pension, it cannot under the explanatory act of March 3d 1837, be withheld on account of her last marriage provided she was a widow on the 4th of July 1836.” A granddaughter of Comfort Chaffee, Mrs. Lucy S. (Chaffee) Woodworth Chaffee, had told the writer of the first edition that it had been told to her that Comfort courted Lucy Stow and they became engaged to be married when Lucy broke the engagement, jilting him to marry Reuben Hoyt. After the death of Reuben, Comfort renewed his suit for the hand of the fair young widow, and she was so much impressed with his attentions, that she told him that if he could overlook her treatment in jilting him to marry another, she would become his bride, “and they lived happily ever afterward.” The first record of Comfort Chaffee after his marriage is a deed recorded in the office of the Register of the Deeds for the Middle District of Berkshire, Pittsfield, MA, on Dec. 31, 1782. This deed is from Abner Allen, “yeoman”, of Rehoboth, Bristol County, MA to Comfort Chaffee, “husbandman,” also of Rehoboth for lot No. 172 , situated in New Seconke (Adams), in the county of Berkshire, MA, and containing one hundred acres of land. Comfort and Lucy’s eldest son was most likely born there. Comfort next purchased land on Oct. 1, 1783 from “Squire Ide” in Clarendon, VT, where the family then moved. They remained in Clarendon for three and one-half years before selling their property and removing to Rutland, VT, where son, Jasper, was born. He then returned to Clarendon where he had purchased seventy-six acres of land, remaining there for ten years. On Jan. 28, 1801, Comfort Chaffee, of Clarendon, VT, sold to Braddock Chaffee of Rehoboth, MA for $1.00 “My home farm containing by estimation 76 1-2 acres.” Comfort then bought of “Thomas Byrd of Vergennes” on Jun. 26, 1801, lot No. 6 in the first division of Berkshire, VT, “drawn to the right of Daniel Jones” for $333.33, this becoming the new “home farm” on which he and his family moved to in March of 1802; the children then ranging from two to nineteen years of age. The farm is located on Potato Hill Road, not far north of the tiny village of West Berkshire, VT, and a “stones’ throw” from the Canadian border. For the next twenty years or more, Comfort made numerous real estate deals, many to ensure that his children all had good farms of their own. As stone fences were the norm for that period of time, farmers’ cattle often roamed off the property, so ear marks were used to show ownership. The ear marks for Comfort’s cattle is recorded in the Berkshire Town Records on Aug. 7, 1802 as being a “Slit in the Right Ear.” In 1811, Comfort Chaffee built and ran “Chaffees Inn”, said to have been the first tavern in the town of Berkshire. Being situated near the Canadian border, and on the original Boston Post Road leading from Montreal to Boston, the location was perfect for the business. His son, John, later moved the main part of the tavern to the eastern side of the highway, and built a substantial two-story brick house with the old tavern forming the ell part of the house. It still stands today as it did almost two hundred years ago, the downstairs used for storage and a garage. An old fallen apart organ still sits in the large upstairs room; the smaller one filled with old horse bridles, etc… One of the original COMFORT CHAFFEE - SIXTH GENERATION 9
Chaffee Inn doors is on display at the Berkshire Historical Society Museum (the former First Congregational Church) in East Berkshire, VT. Comfort and Lucy were members of the Baptist church. They made sure that their children were well educated as well. In 1827, he donated one dollar to the University of Vermont in Burlington, for the benefit of new buildings. Mrs. Hoyt Burt was in possession of two books owned by Comfort Chaffee, the first entitled “Heart’s Ease in Heart-Trouble” by John Bunyon, and was printed in 1813. The inscription on the fly-leaf reads, Comfort Chaffee’ Book Bought In 1815 “If I this book should lend & you this Book should borough Pray read it through to Day & send it home tomorrow”
The other book is “The Life and Character of the Late Reverend, Learned and Pious Mr. Jonathan Edwards,” and was printed in 1804; the inscription on the fly-leaf reads,

There are no likenesses of either Comfort or Lucy Chaffee, the camera having not yet been invented, and no drawings or paintings of them are known to exist. Their granddaughter, Lucy S. Chaffee, was born and raised on the home farm, and remembered her grandfather, who died when she was five and one-half years of age. She described him as being a short, thick-set man with light complexion, blue eyes and sandy hair. Lucy also recalled how he used to sit in his chair, grasping the head of his cane with both hands, his head bowed over and his forehead resting on his hands. His wife, Lucy, is said to have been a stout woman, not very tall, fair complexion and blue eyes. Blue eyes and light hair with a fair complexion is the rule among the descendants of Comfort and Lucy, although there are exceptions. Comfort Chaffee made his will Aug. 26, 1826, but this will was never probated, neither is there any record in the office of the Probate Court in St.Albans, VT of any settlement of his estate. It may be that the property was divided by mutual consent of the legatees in accordance with the terms of the will. Mr. Azro Buck Chaffee, grandson of Jasper Chaffee, was in possession of the will at the time of the first edition, having found it with many other interesting old papers in a trunk belonging to his grandfather. The full text reads as follows: “In the name of God, Amen. I, Comfort Chaffee of Berkshire in the County of Franklin & State of Vermont being weak in body but of sound and perfect mind & 10 THE BERKSHIRE CHAFFEES

Comfort Chaffee died on Feb. 23, 1828 in Berkshire, VT. His wife, Lucy, lived for another seventeen years, and died in Berkshire, VT on Mar. 23, 1845. They are both buried in the cemetery in West Berkshire, VT, along with many of their descendants.

Nathaniel Chaffee, (Comfort, Nathaniel, Nathaniel, Jonathan, Nathaniel, Thomas) b. Feb. 22, 1783, (prob.) Adams, MA; d. Jul. 24, 1821, Berkshire, VT; m. Polly Hibbard. Nathaniel was a farmer, and bought of his father, Comfort Chaffee, Apr. 13, 1804, fifty acres of land, the eastern part of lot No. 11, in Berkshire for $100.00. On the following day, Apr. 14, Nathaniel Chaffee gave to his father for $200, a quit-claim deed of “all my right, title, interest, claim or demand to any estate, either real or personal, of the aforesaid Comfort, his heirs, executors & administrators to ever quit-claim to him the sd Comfort his heirs, executors & administrators all my right, title, interest, claim or demand to the above mentioned premises.” This deed was not recorded in the town records until June 11, 1822, nearly a year after Nathaniel’s death. It was probably recorded then as a precaution against Nathaniel’s widow claiming a share of Comfort Chaffee’s estate. Nathaniel Chaffee’s recorded ear mark for cattle was a “Swallow’s tail on the end of the right ear,” recorded March 21, 1811. But little is known of Nathaniel Chaffee, but some of the older grandchildren of his brothers say that they heard is said of “Uncle Nat” that he lived unhappily with his wife, that he once said that if he did not get a divorce from “that woman” soon, he hoped God Almighty would give him one, and that he died not long after. He is buried in the West Berkshire Cemetery. His brother, Jasper Chaffee, was the administrator of his estate. As far as known, no portrait or likeness of Nathaniel Chaffee was ever taken. No children were born to Nathaniel Chaffee. After his death, his widow married (2) a Mr. Stimson, and had two children.
Reuben Chaffee, (Comfort, Nathaniel, Nathaniel, Jonathan, Nathaniel, Thomas, ) b. Jan. 23, 1785 (prob.) Clarendon, VT; d. Oct. 8, 1842, Berkshire, VT; m. Sep. 27, 1807 in Berkshire, by the Rev. Elam Jewett, justice of the peace, to Sally Danforth, dau of William Danforth of Billerica, MA and Priscilla (Hoadley) Danforth; b. Mar. 20, 1783, Fitchburg, MA; d. Jun. 10, 1873, Berkshire, VT. She was a sister of Priscilla Danforth, who was successively wife to Reuben Chaffee’s brothers, Comfort and John Chaffee. The Berkshire records show that Reuben Chaffee was among the persons wo took the freeman’s oath Sep. 2, 1806. On Aug. 22, 1807, but a few weeks before his marriage, he bought of his father, Comfort Chaffee, fifty-four acres of land in lots No. 3 and 6 for $200. By two deeds, on Sep. 3, 1813 and Mar. 19, 1814, one for $125 and one for $100, Reuben bought of his brother, Jasper Chaffee, the fifty acres in lot No. 3 which Jasper had bought of his father Nov. 7, 1810. This gave Reuben the title to nearly all of lot No. 3. The record of ear marks of cattle gives “Chaffee, Reuben. Swallows tail on the end of the left ear, recorded May 1, 1810. Reuben Chaffee was a farmer, and his farm was directly north of his father’s farm, and on the highway leading to Felighsburg, Quebec, Canada. It adjoined Canada on the north. After Reuben Chaffee’s death, his farm was owned by his son, Samuel L. Chaffee, and was owned in the 1950’s by his grandson, Cortes S. Chaffee, who resided there on. Reuben was a stout man, becoming very corpulent in his last years. He died of dropsy, and is buried in the West Berkshire Cemetery. His will was admitted to probate in St. Albans, VT, Oct. 26, 1842.

Lucy Chaffee, (Comfort, Nathaniel, Nathaniel, Jonathan, Nathaniel, Thomas) b. Jan. 3, 1787, Clarendon, VT; d. Aug. 3, 1863, Sheldon, VT; m. Jan. 2, 1806 in Berkshire, VT by Chester Weld, justice of the peace, to Seth Kendall, son of Capt. William Kendall of Franklin, VT; b. Oct. 13, 1779 (prob.) Salisbury, VT; d. Jan. 25, 1846, West Berkshire, VT. Seth Kendall was a carriage maker, and also was for several years, engaged in various manufacturing industries in Enosburg Falls, VT with his brother, Samuel Kendall. The greater par of the married life of Seth and Lucy (Chaffee) Kendall was passed in Enosburg Falls, but in later life, they moved to West Berkshire village, where Seth died. Lucy lived with her daughter, Polly (Kendall) Burt, about a mile below Enosburg Falls and in the edge of the town of Sheldon, VT, dying there in 1863. The births of the oldest four children of Seth and Lucy Kendall are recorded in the town records of Berkshire, but a diligent inquiry among older living grandchildren of Seth and Lucy leads to the belief that all of their children were born in Enosburg Falls, as no one remembers of hearing anything said of their living in Berkshire during early married life. No record of children’s births was found in the Enosburg town records.

Jasper Chaffee, (Comfort, Nathaniel, Nathaniel, Jonathan, Nathaniel, Thomas) b. Oct. 4, SEVENTH GENERATION 13
1789, Rutland, VT; d. Jul. 9, 1867, Berkshire, VT; m. (1) Nov. 4, 1810 in Berkshire, VT by Elam Jewett, justice of the peace, to Hannah Burleson, dau of John and Anna (Austin) Burleson of Providence, RI and sister of the first wife of his brother, Warren Chafee; b. Jul. 17, 1790, Pownal, VT; d. Aug. 21, 1854, Berkshire, VT; m. (2) Apr. 28, 1856 in Enosburg, VT by Elder Bryant, to Clara H. Tracy. (No record of her birth, death or parentage could be found by the original compiler). Jasper Chaffee was first a farmer, and on Nov. 7, 1810, he bought of his father, Comfort Chaffee, fifty acres of land in lot No. 3 for $200. This land adjoined the Canadian boundary line and the west side of the farm of his brother, Reuben. Jasper built a house on the west side of the highway and only thirty or forty yards from the international boundary line. The place where the cellar was dug can yet be seen (1952). There is a tradition that on the day that one of Jasper’s children was born, a party of Indians, returning from a trip to Vermont, stopped at his house and demanded food. This was set before them, and these Indians ate all of the cooked food in the house. When they started back on their journey, the Indians lined up at the boundary line and fired a salute. This frightened the family very much for a time, but it proved to be a custom held in a kind of awe and reverence for them. Jasper sold this place to his brother, Reuben Chaffee, by two deeds, dated Sep. 3, 1813 and Mar. 19, 1814 for $225. The first recorded ear mark for Jasper Chaffee’s cattle was a “square crop off the right ear and a slit in the end of both,” recorded Nov. 6, 1813. He may have bought the cattle belonging to his brother, Nathaniel Chaffee, after the latter’s death, as we find recorded on Oct. 18, 1822, “Jasper Chaffee’s ear mark, a swallow’s tail on the end of the right ear,” which had been Nathaniel’s ear mark. Jasper Chaffee was quite a land owner, the most valuable farm property that he owned being what he called “the Yaw farms” on the Pike River between West Berkshire and Berkshire Center. At the time that Jasper Chaffee owned these farms, they were estimated to be worth $20,000. They were later owned (1952) by Dwight E. Weld and Oscar Bowen. Later in life, Mr. Chaffee was the leading merchant of West Berkshire for many years, and did a large business for a country village. He accumulated a considerable property for those days. His youngest son, Azro B. Chaffee, was executor of his estate. Jasper and Hannah (Burleson) Chaffee are buried in the West Berkshire Cemetery.

and Priscilla (Hoadley) Danforth, of Billerica, MA, and sister of Sally Danforth, wife of his brother, Reuben Chaffee; b. Aug. 28, 1790, Hartland, VT; d. Mar. 1, 1880, Berkshire, VT. Comfort Chaffee was a farmer, and on Feb. 9, 1813, he bought of his father, Comfort Chaffee, for $200, forty acres of land in the western part of lot No. 11, the lot which his brother, Nathaniel, owned fifty acres in the eastern part. The estate of Comfort Chaffee Jr., was settled by his older brother, Reuben, the widow waiving her rights as administratrix. The real estate was divided between the widow and father. After the death of Comfort Chaffee Jr., Mrs. Priscilla (Danforth) Chaffee married (2) John Chaffee, his younger brother. Comfort Chaffee quit-claimed to his son, John Chaffee, his part of the forty acres, so that John Chaffee and wife continued to own it. No picture or likeness of Comfort Chaffee Jr., remains. He is buried in the West Berkshire Cemetery.

Warren Chaffee, (Comfort, Nathaniel, Nathaniel, Jonathan, Nathaniel, Thomas) b. Apr. 24, 1794, Clarendon, VT; d. Mar. 4, 1867, Berkshire, VT; m. (1) Oct. 9, 1814 in Berkshire, VT by Harvey Clark, justice of the peace, to Sally Burleson, dau of John and Anna (Austin) Burleson of Providence, RI, and sister of the first wife of his brother, Jasper Chaffee; b. Mar. 18, 1797, New Haven, VT; d. Apr. 20, 1855, Berkshire, VT; m. (2) Apr. 24, 1857 in Berkshire, VT by William C. Ellsworth, justice of the peace, to Prutia Hildreth, b. abt. 1800; d. Oct. 14, 1888, “aged 88 years.” (The original compiler did not learn the ancestry of Prutia Hildreth). Warren Chaffee was a farmer. On Jun. 15, 1815, he bought of William J. Smith, for $300, the lot of land in the first division of Berkshire, “drawn to the right of Erastus Sergeant.” He sold this lot to his uncle, Silas Stow, Oct. 2, 1818 for $400. This was lot No. 13, and adjoined lot No. 12 on the south and lot No. 20 on the North, lots of land bought wholly or in part by his father, Comfort Chaffee, in 1818. Warren bought of Darius Adams, Nov. 14, 1818 for $500, the lot of land “drawn to the right of Hezekiah Parmallee,” and the same day, gave back a mortgage for $500. This was lot No. 53 in the first division, and was in the southern part of the town, and about two miles from Berkshire Center on the highway leading to Enosburg Falls. Here Warren lived the remainder of his life, and the farm passed to his oldest son, Harmon, and is now (1952) ownd by Mr. and Mrs. Fred H. Brigham of Bakersfield, VT, Mrs. Brigham being a daughter of Harmon Chaffee. In the Berkshire records is found “Chaffee, Warren’s Ear mark three slits in the right ear Recd and recorded.” Warren served as a private in the War of 1812, and was captured and held a prisoner for six months. He received one hundred sixty acres of land from the government for his services. The files of the adjutant general of Vermont, show that in the War of 1812 “W. Chafey served from Nov. 1, 1812 to Dec. 8, 1812 in Captain George W. Kendall’s Company. “The Vermont Historical Gazetteer,” by Miss Hemenway, has the following in the “Franklin County Military.” “This company of volunteers from Fairfield, Captain George Kimball [Kendall] commanding, was stationed at Swanton,” and the roll of the company includes the name of “Warren Chafy.” (With SEVENTH GENERATION 15
the name spellings being different, makes this record probable) Pictures of Warren Chaffee and his second wife were given for the 1911 edition, but were unavailable in 1951. It is not known that any pictures of his first wife, Sally Burleson, were ever taken. Warren Chaffee and his first wife are buried in the Berkshire Center Cemetery. His second wife is buried in the cemetery at West Berkshire.

John Chaffee, (Comfort, Nathaniel, Nathaniel, Jonathan, Nathaniel, Thomas) b. Jul. 12, 1796, Clarendon, VT; d. Jun. 16, 1883, Berkshire, VT; m. Dec. 4, 1817 in Berkshire, VT to Mrs. Priscilla (Danforth) Chaffee, widow of his brother, Comfort Chaffee Jr., and sister of the wife of his brother, Reuben Chaffee. She was the daughter of William Danforth and Priscilla (Hoadley) Danforth, b. Aug. 28, 1790, Hartland, VT; d. Mar. 1, 1880, Berkshire, VT. John was a farmer. He bought land of his father, Comfort Chaffee, on Sep. 14, 1820, Nov. 5, 1822 and Aug. 26, 1926, the last of these purchases including the home of his father. John Chafee also succeeded his father as tavern-keeper, and he accumulated a comfortable property. He moved the main part of the old, one-story tavern across the highway to the east side, and built a substantial two-story brick farm house on the site. This farm was later owned and occupied by John’s son, Homer S. Chaffee, and then by Homer Chaffee’s son, Homer Howard Chaffee until his death. The town records have this entry, “John Chaffee’s Ear mark a slanting crop off the uppers side of the left ear, recorded Nov. 20th 1818.” The record of these ear marks is of interest as showing the time when such persons became owners of cattle in numbers sufficient to require identification. John and Priscilla Chaffee cared for Comfort and Lucy Chaffee in the last years, for which they received $500 and a life lease executed Aug. 26, 1826. When John Chaffee was a small boy, he put out one eye while playing with a penknife. Pictures of John and Priscilla Chaffee are given in the 1911 edition. Their graves may be seen in the West Berkshire Cemetery.

By two deeds, dated Jun. 11, 1822 and Aug. 26, 1826, he bought of his father, Comfort Chaffee, for $400, about forty-four and one-half acres in lots No. 3 and 6, being land adjoining his father’s home place on the north, and also near to and adjoining the farm of his brother, Reuben Chaffee. On the latter date, Elijah quit-claimed to Comfort his heir ship for $100. On Apr. 12, 1824, there is recorded “Elijah Chaffee’s Ear mark a hole through the right and a slit out from it.” Elijah Chaffee later removed to West Berkshire village, and for many years conducted the grist mill on the falls there. He resided in Berkshire the larger part of his life, but his last years were passed with his daughter, Mrs. Jenne, at South Stukely, Que. Elijah Chaffee and both of his wives are buried in the West Berkshire Cemetery.

He bought of his father, Comfort Chaffee, on Mar. 9, 1824, for $85, fifteen acres “more or less” in the lot of land in the first division of Berkshire, “drawn to the right of IsaacWoodruff.” This was in lot SEVENTH GENERATION 17
No. 59. On Jul. 23 of the same year, Aaron bought of his father the lot of land in the first division “drawn to the right of Charles Dibble Jr.” for $175. This was lot No. 60, and was directly east and adjoined to lot No. 59. It also adjoined and was south of the lot owned by Aaron’s brother, Warren Chaffee. Aaron Chaffee bought of Aaron Hoadley, on Mar. 26, 1826 for $49, “about 19 acres and 6 rods in the lot in the first division “drawn to the right of Isaac Woodruff.” This land adjoined the first purchase made by Aaron S. Chaffee, and was in lot No. 59. This latter lot was directly north of and adjoined the lot that Comfort Chaffee sold to William Danforth on Nov. 20, 1806. After marriage, Aaron S. Chaffee and wife lived for a short time with his father, Comfort Chaffee, and brother, Warren Chaffee, until their house on the adjoining farm was completed. This farm was about two miles south of Berkshire Center on the highway leading to Enosburg Falls, and is now owned (1952) by C. R. Colpitts, but for more than fifty years has been known as the Spencer Stanhope farm. Under date of Mar. 9, 1824, is recorded “Aaron Chaffee’s Ear mark a swallows tail in the right ear and a crop off the left.” Aaron S. Chaffee sold to his son, James H. Chaffee, on Jun. 1, 1857, his Berkshire home, and moved to Orleans County, buying a farm on Westfield “north hill” where he resided the remainder of his life. This latter farm passed to his youngest son, Bethuel M. Chaffee, by whom it is still (1952) owned and occupied. The longevity of the children of Aaron S. Chaffee is rather remarkable for so large a family. None have died under the age of seventy years, and two have lived to be over eighty. All were married, and all but one had children who grew to adult age. The golden wedding anniversary of Aaron S. Chaffee and his wife was appropriately observed, Feb. 26, 1873, at which time ten of the eleven children were present, one son, Sylvester A. Chaffee, being unavoidably detained after he had planned to attend. It is rather singular that the eleven children of Aaron S. Chaffee were never home altogether, some of the older ones having gone away from home before the youngest one was born, and they never gathered under one roof afterward. Both Aaron S. Chaffee and wife are buried in a cemetery in Westfield.

this incident about the opening of the war. “On a Sunday morning in April, 1861, my mother and her brothers were attending Sunday School over a mile from home, when a German neighbor came riding down the pike and hollered in the door of the old schoolhouse, ’Rund fer yer lifes! De Rebs have made a raid and are gon’ to take Baltimer befer night!’ It didn’t take them long to make their getaway, and they arrived home just in time to tell their father that Gilmore and his band were coming, and to suggest that he “fix” the old horse or the raiders would take it. My grandfather had one of the boys hold up the right fore foot of the horse while he tied a linen cord tightly around the fetlock. When Gilmore came along he said, ’Well, Hank, I’m going to take your horse.’ My grandfather replied, ’Harry, the old horse, is lame on its right fore leg, and it won’t be of any use to you.’ Gilmore in turn said, ’Hank, you and I have always been great friends, but I am going to find out whether you are lying or not.’ So he ordered one of his men to dismount, go to the barn and take out the horse, telling him not to cut the rope, but to untie it, which was done. The man brought out the horse, and Gilmore found it to be as my grandfather had said; it was lame in the right fore foot. He then ordered the man to take the horse back in the barn and tie him up again, and then bade the family ’Good bye’ and went on his way. He told my grandfather that when the war was over, they would meet again and renew their friendship. Whether they did or not, I have never been able to learn.” Mrs. Thurber was injured in a cyclone in 1881, and never fully recovered, being in poor health.

THE BRADDOCK CHAFFEE LINE
Braddock Chaffee, (Dan, Jonathan, Nathaniel, Thomas) b. Nov. 1, 1756, Rehoboth, MA; d. between Mar. 10 and May 13, 1813 (probably), VT; m. Aug. 23, 1781 in Rehoboth, MA to Sarah Brown; b. (about) 1763; d. Jan. 21, 1836, Leicester, VT. Braddock Chaffee served in the Revolutionary War as follows:
Chaffee, Braddock, private in Capt. Joseph Franklin’s co., Col. Thomas Carpenter’s regt., marched from Rehoboth to Bristol on the alarm at Rhode Island of Dec. 8, 1776; service, 16 days; also Capt. Jabez Bullock’s co., Col. Thomas Carpenter’s regt., enlisted Jul. 27, 1780; discharged Jul. 31, 1780; service, 5 days at Tiverton, RI on an alarm; roll sworn to at Rehoboth; also, sam co., and regt.; enlisted Aug. 1, 1780; discharged Aug. 9, 1780; service, 9 days, under Gen. Heath; marched in Tiverton, RI, on an alarm; roll sworn at Rehoboth.
Chaffee, Braddock, Sergeant, Capt. Nathaniel Ide’s co., commanded by Samuel Fisher, Col. Carpenter’s regt.; enlisted Aug. 13, 1779; discharged Sep. 12, 1779; service, 1 mo. At Rhode Island; company detached for 4 weeks service.
Braddock and Comfort Chaffee were most likely boyhood playmates and companions in their youth as they both grew up in Rehoboth and served in Col. Carpenter’s regiment in the Revolutionary War. Braddock also bought Comfort’s farm in Clarendon, VT on Jan. 28, 1801. His death is not recorded in the records of Clarendon, Rutland or Berkshire, but his will was made on Mar. 10, 1813 and the same was offered for probate on May 13, 1813, showing that he died between these dates, most likely in Clarendon, VT.
In January of 1836, Cromwell Bowen of Berkshire, VT, made a trip to Clarendon; Mrs. Sally Green and Mrs. Mary Birch, daughters of Braddock Chaffee and residents of Berkshire, having arranged with Mr. Bowen to bring their mother, the widow of Braddock Chaffee, to Berkshire on his return. While at Clarendon, it was further arranged that Mr. Bowen should also carry to Berkshire, Luthera Marion Chaffee, the twelve year old orphan granddaughter of Mrs. Chaffee. At the end of the first day of the journey, the party stopped at a tavern in Leicester. Mrs. Chaffee was a sufferer from heart trouble, and in the night, arose and dressed and went to the office in the tavern where there was a good fire in the large fireplace. Early in the morning, she was found dead on the floor, having fallen from her chair. The journey was delayed one day so that a coffin might be secured, and the Berkshire relatives were notified. A brief service was held at Leicester, and a considerable body of men escorted the funeral party to the village limits, an act of courtesy and respect much appreciated by those who were bereaved among strangers. The body of Mrs. Chaffee was taken to Berkshire and buried in the cemetery south of the center. The broken stone in her memory lies on a table in the storage building at the Berkshire Center Cemetery, where she was laid to rest. The incidents in this paragraph were told to the compiler of the 1911 edition by Mrs. Luthera M. (Chaffee) Branch, widow of the late Dr. John Branch of St. Albans, VT, and the granddaughter of Braddock and Sarah Chaffee, who made that fateful trip so many years ago. 726 THE BERKSHIRE CHAFFEES
