I' i^ -e^ = M fin 8 I csl .f^^il%' Si FOREWORD. nPHE gathering of modern information for this work and '' the collection of matter from the ancestral records of the Almy family, was begun a few years since by Mrs. Polly Ann Almy- Miller, of Washington, D. C. To this the late Rear-Admiral Almy contributed valuable historic incidents, while further research and compilation of the material was completed by the publisher. In the preparation of this book numerous authorities have been consulted and proper credit accorded to them. The genealogical record, though not complete, is composed of facts gleaned from public and historic doc- uments, and will be, it is hoped, of value to members of the Almy and Rapalj^ families who desire to trace their direct lineage back to William Almy, 1630, or to Joris Janssen de Rapalje, 1623. c. k.

FERGUSON NEW YORK Privately Printed 1925 TO THE MEMORY OF THE SUC­ CESSIVE OWNERS, FROM JOHN WINTHROP, JR., TO THE AUTHOR'S FATHER, WALTON FERGUSON, THIS HISTORY OF FISHERS ISLAND IS RESPECTFULLY DEDICATED FOREWORD IT has been said that a good book needs no preface. This short history, however, must have one, for the author does not pretend to be either writer or historian and possibly mistakes have crept in, for which he wishes to apologize. Like most historical records, this could necessarily be little more than a rearrangement of the words set down by those who have gone before. The search for these has carried the author far, but among the more important sources from which information has been derived are the works listed below. In the interests of simplicity and an easier page to read, footnotes and specific credit refer­ ences have been omitted from the text. To the writers and publishers of the following, however, the author gratefully acknowledges his indebtedness, as well as to Mrs. Fay Fox Shiland, Mrs. Mary Smith (nee Win­ throp), Mr~ Deane Winthrop Pratt, Mr. Frederick Winthrop, and The New London County Historical Society. Old Paths of the New England Border-K. M.

    1 COLLECTIONS OF THE MASSACHUSETTS HISTORICAL SOCIETY. 2 Committee of Publication. GEORGE E. ELLIS. WILLIAM H. WHITMORE. HENRY WARREN TORREY. JAMES RUSSELL LOWELL. Electronic Version Prepared by Dr. Ted Hildebrandt 4/6/2002 Gordon College, 255 Grapevine Rd. Wenham, MA. 01984 3 COLLECTIONS OF THE MASSACHUSETTS HISTORICAL SOCIETY. Vol. VI. -- FIFTH SERIES. BOSTON: PUBLISHED BY THE SOCIETY. M.DCCCLXXIX 4 UNIVERSITY PRESS: JOHN WILSON AND SON, CAMBRIDGE. SECOND EDITION. 5 PRE FACE. THE Publishing Committee herewith presents to the Society the second volume of the Diary of Samuel Sewall, Printed from the Manuscript in its Cabinet. The text of the volume in- cludes the period from January 14, 1699-1700, to April 14, 1714. Another volume in print will complete the publication of the manuscript Diary. The Judge's Letter-Book will furnish the materials for a fourth volume. The Committee has continued the same system of annotating the text which was adopted in the first volume. Resisting the prompting or opportunity to explain or illustrate the many in- teresting references which the Judge makes to matters of his- torical importance, to an extent which would expand the notes beyond the text, the method pursued, as the reader will observe, has been restricted to occasional comments, and to genealogical and local particulars and references, without quoting authorities easily accessible to the students of our history. The connection between Judge Sewall's family and that of Governor Dudley evidently embarrassed the former, alike in his official position as a magistrate, and in making entries in his diary concerning mat- ters in which they were occasionally at variance.

SHntbtrsitp Prtiss: John Wilson and Son, Camihudoe, U.S.A. PREFATORY NOTE T^THEN Mr. Waters consulted me at the outset with refer- » * ence to this publication, I thought it peculiarly appro- priate that the task should have been undertaken by a President of the Ipswich Historical Society, and I have therefore done my best to aid him, partly by disinterring from famUy-papers some little new material of local interest, partly by drawing attention to letters so long ago printed in different volumes, some of them now very rare, that they have been gradually lost sight of even by students. At his suggestion, also, I have taken pains to provide suitable illustrations. The frontispiece is an unusually successful repro- duction of the well-known but much discolored portrait of John Winthrop, Jr., in early life, — the only authentic likeness of him at any period, and still in possession of a branch of his descend- ants.
