<br /></p><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;">Isaac Hicks was born in 1767, into the Quaker farming community of Westbury, Long Island. He was the son of <span style="background-color: #fcff01;">Samuel </span>and <span style="background-color: #fcff01;">Phebe</span> (nee <span style="background-color: #fcff01;">Seaman</span>), and had a prominent extended family within the Quaker community which included Quaker minister Elias Hicks (1748-1830) and artist Edward Hicks (1780-1849). </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;">While in Westbury, Hicks worked both as a tailor and as a teacher. In 1789, disillusioned with teaching, Hicks moved to New York City: he opened a mercantile shop under the title of "grocer." That year, he also met <span style="background-color: #fcff01;">Sara[h] Doughty </span>(1768-1847). They married in 1790 and had six children: <span style="background-color: #fcff01;">John D. [M. Sarah Rushmore]</span> Robert, Benjamin, Isaac, Elizabeth, and Mary. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;">In 1790, Hicks began a series of partnerships; first with Richard Loines; then with Richard Loines, his father William Loines, and William Loines's brother-in-law, John Alsop, Jr. Loines, Alsop, & Company specialized in importing British made dry goods, and it is within these partnerships that Hicks transitioned from the title 'grocer' to 'dry-goods specialist.' </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;">It is also with Loines, Alsop &Co. that Hicks learned how to supplement his income, as the partnership owned a wharf, rented business properties, and were co-owners of a mill, all to bring in additional income during the slow seasons of their business.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;">In 1791, Loines, Alsop & Company dissolved. William Loines retired, Richard Loines joined with his brother John to create their own mercantile business, and Hicks and John Alsop, Jr. continued their partnership under the new name of Alsop & Hicks. It was at this point that the pair began being seen in directories under the listing of 'merchant.' For three years, Alsop & Hicks continued acting as an international importer of dry goods. In 1794, after not making the money, they expected and having trouble collecting on debts owed to them, the company Alsop & Hicks changed direction from 'dry-goods specialists' to 'shipping and commission agents.'</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;">This change allowed Alsop & Hicks to act as trusted agents for other merchants, selling goods that were sent to them rather than buying and selling on their own. The firm also helped merchants and captains outfit ships, purchase insurance, and obtain cargo. It was in this venture that Hicks's relationships within the Quaker community were beneficial: Quaker merchants were more likely to trust other Quakers and their families with their goods than they would an outsider. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;">In May of 1794, John Alsop, Jr. left New York City for a quieter life in Hudson, New York, though he did continue to maintain part interest in the firm and bring in customers from the Hudson area, including: Thomas Jenkins & Sons, Seth Jenkins, and the Paddock family, among others. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;">It is these connections that also allowed Alsop & Hicks to gain commissions in Nantucket and New Bedford, Massachusetts, as well as continuing earlier commissions of cotton, tobacco, and rice, out of Savannah, Georgia. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;">After continuing business in this manner for a number of years, Hicks dissolved his partnership with John Alsop, Jr. and formed a partnership with Benjamin D. Doughty-longtime clerk of Alsop & Hicks. However, a yellow fever outbreak led to the death of Benjamin Doughty shortly after this partnership began, and Hicks refrained from creating new partnerships through his retirement.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;">Now that Hicks was on his own, while continuing to do business in the same manner as he did while part of Alsop & Hicks, Isaac Hicks began focusing more of his efforts towards increasing his sale of whale products-especially oil and spermaceti candles. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;">These commissions made up the majority of his revenue until 1800. Hicks was able to increase and keep his trade contacts in the whaling market by being fastidious in attempting to regulate the fluctuating prices of whale oil, even when it was at the loss of a commission. He also attempted to restore some of the former marketing practices of spermaceti candle makers in order to increase the candle makers profits. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;">By 1800, Hicks commissions from whale merchants began a steady decline—mostly because of the changing circumstances within the whaling industry, as well as some decisions made by Hicks. Insurance rates were rising, the number of whales was dwindling in the Atlantic, and Hicks allowed his brother, Samuel, to take over many of his commissions when Samuel began his own business. Also, with the falling prices, captains and owners were becoming unhappy with their lack of income, and blamed the problems on Hicks. Because of the dwindling income from whale products, Hicks returned his focus to other forms of shipping and commission.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;">By 1802, Hicks began considering at least partial retirement from business, as he was beginning to get notices of declining health. It was because of this, that in December 1802, Hicks, along with others in a syndicate, purchased the ship Thames in order to capitalize on trade to St. Petersburg, Russia and quickly increase their earnings. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;">When all was said and done, Hicks made a handsome profit-grossing nearly $14,000 ($292,611.21 in 2018). After a time, Hicks and his syndicate sold the Thames, and yet while Hicks continued to put on excursions to the Black Sea, none were as profitable. Regardless, by 1805, Hicks left New York City to return to Westbury and by 1807 had officially retired from business at the age of 38.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;">Throughout Hicks's career, he was a staunch abolitionist and active in the Quaker Meeting. He was a member of an anti-slavery organization that mixed both Friends and prominent non-Quakers, as well as a member of the New York Manumission Society. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;">As part of this society, he was a fundraiser for the African Free School, and while these might have been a small distraction during his career, it became all-consuming after Hicks entered retirement.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;">Isaac Hicks was also extremely active in the Quaker Meeting, acting on multiple committees. In 1816, he was nominated for Clerk of the Westbury Meeting. He was also well known in many other Quaker circles outside of the Meeting, mostly thanks to his cousin, Elias Hicks, who Isaac traveled extensively with. Hicks also worked closely with his cousin, Edward Hicks, in an attempt to bring him back to preaching and away from painting by paying off his debts. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;">After an active and varied retirement, Hicks fell ill on January 10, 1820, and died shortly thereafter at 52 years old.</span></p><div><div><b>Copied in its entirety from:</b></div><div><br /></div><div>The website at the New-York Historical Society Museum & Library, Guide to the Isaac Hicks Papers 1791-1820 (MS 297) </div><div><br /></div><div>This collection should be cited as </div><div>Isaac Hicks papers, MS 297, The New-York Historical Society New-York Historical Society Collection processed by Jennifer Gargiulo.</div><div>Descriptive Summary:</div><div>Creator: Hicks, Isaac, 1767-1820</div><div>Title: Isaac Hicks papers</div><div>Dates [inclusive]: 1791-1820</div><div>Dates [bulk]: 1791-1806</div></div><div>-----------------------------------------</div><div><br /></div><div><b><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;">Lineage to my great-grandmother:</span></b></div><div><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;">Isaac Hicks and Phebe Seaman - > </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;"> John D Hicks and Sarah Rushmore - > </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;"> Isaac Hicks and Mary Fry Willis - > </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;"> Marianna Hicks and William Ephraim Hawxhurst-></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;"> Bertha Hawxhurst and Chester J Tyson</span></div>PastRemainshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13764919337850713245noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7174145712627266844.post-23555290460760093982020-12-22T16:50:00.003-05:002022-10-03T18:51:25.177-04:00#89 - Resolutions for 2021<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;" trbidi="on"><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: x-large;"><b>Review and Resolutions </b></span></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;"><i><b>The year 2020 in review. </b></i>2020 started well, but it rapidly unraveled.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Thanks so much for your letter I am still
in Westbury but expect to return to Foulkeways in about ten days.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"> Did any of your family ever see the book
“Isaac Hicks, Quaker Merchant”? He married Sarah Doughty, and their son John D married
Sarah Rushmore, our common ancestor (on the Phipps property). </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Isaac prospered in NY but retired in 1805
“with enough of the world’s goods” and built the house on Old Westbury Rd.
which we knew as a <b><i>Cocks</i></b> home thru a daughter’s marriage. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">It was sold for very little during the Depression
and all Isaac’s 10,000 business records unopened for 130 years or more were
brought to “the aunts’ parlor” [Grace & Marietta]. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">A history professor seeking a subject for

What an undertaking carefully completed!<br /> The Phipps family did live briefly in the house John Doughty Hicks built in 1825. They soon moved it south of the turnpike near the house I now have to empty. <br />It burned in 1910 so that is the end of that. There have been eight Hicks homes in direct descent, ending with Fred who know runs the Hicks Nursery business (started in 1853) and others as well, all of which I can remember and four others (only two gone) and all within about a mile.<br /> Our main highway is the Jericho Turnpike (Route 25). The area now the incorporated village of Old Westbury is on the north side of it. The rich sporting people bought it all up from the Quaker farmers starting about 1900. Now no business is allowed even tho’ the nursery still has twenty acres. Fred could sell only what might be grown on it, but he concentrates on a smaller garden center to the south.<br /><br /> You asked what became of the 1837 house built by our ancestor Isaac Hicks II who changed from dairy farming to the nursery business in 1853.<br />I was born there, but my parents built one the south side in 1905. We came to call it the aunts’ house (for Grace and Marietta). It descended to my brother Edwin but neither he nor his son wanted to live there. It was bought by the Society for the Preservation of Long Island Antiquities. They renovated it and put it up for sale under their revolving fund, with restrictions. The first owner could rarely be there. That is the girlhood home of your great-great grandmother Marianna [Hicks M. Hauxhurst]. <br /><br /> When the big house built by the first Isaac Hicks in 1805 had to be sold at the bottom of the Depression years, all the business records Isaac brought from NY City came to the aunts’ [previously mentioned Grace and Marietta] house for safe-keeping. There were 10,000 letters, a dozen letter books, ledgers and journals. <br /><br />They all went later to the New York Historical Society, Port of N.Y Authority collection. I actually went there because I thought someone from my generation should see them. A few of the ledgers were brought out for me. <br /><br />Isaac the merchant’s money was passed on: a record exists that his grandson John D Hicks (a posthumous child b. 1829) decided he would do better investing the money -$10,000-left to him by his grandmother Sarah Doughty Hicks than what he tried to make farming with his brothers</span><span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 14pt;">. </span></span></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 14pt; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLXR1tvkt_2xLdY5A_4NWYGmr5AGRbvgocYLZgeTjCQD-WKlWMJHUju1RvvFKN5Q7zbkIGasRvGyuXXALulhOK6SF2YXAzrABF_s6L4ong7ECk19-hH2dfjpqFEd5V_zduFvePPxxgEC-k/s2048/Front+Page+Hicks+1.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1370" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLXR1tvkt_2xLdY5A_4NWYGmr5AGRbvgocYLZgeTjCQD-WKlWMJHUju1RvvFKN5Q7zbkIGasRvGyuXXALulhOK6SF2YXAzrABF_s6L4ong7ECk19-hH2dfjpqFEd5V_zduFvePPxxgEC-k/w268-h400/Front+Page+Hicks+1.jpg" width="268" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">front piece of above book </td></tr></tbody></table><span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><br /><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;"> Our ancestor, the second Isaac [Hicks] must have inherited the same and he also received the 20 acres where he built in 1837 and carried on a dairy farm before expanding into the nursery.

High praise for all your work on them and thanks for letting me see them.<br /> Occurring south of Westbury is the largest natural prairie east of the Mississippi—twenty miles long and about sixteen wide. Hence the early names Plainedge and Woodedge. In the early days if was used as a common summer pasture and cattle and sheep (with earmarks) were returned to their owners in the fall. No trees grew there. <br />The aviation industry grew up there (also Lindbergh’s take-off and return) to be succeeded by shopping malls and suburban growth. <br />I can even remember, though, that it was open land in my childhood. We drove to Hempstead on rutted wagon tracks as the straightest direct way there.<br /><br />Here is an enclosure of Westbury’s early history written by Harold Hawxhurst, brother of your grandmother Bertha [Hawxhurst who married Chester Tyson]. <br />As I understand it, the house all the family lived in was moved a little north and turned the opposite direction perhaps just before 1900.<br /><br />The four pages with pictures of many old homes was prepared from records I supplied (as well as the first article, which I wrote). <br />I had waited until now to send it to you—the map had been prepared for Aunt Marietta [Hicks] by Cousin Harold. <br />Turn [it] so Jericho Turnpike goes east and west. I’m sorry this is such a poor print. Anyway, you will see where Marianna Hicks (Hauxhurst) grew up, daughter of Isaac Hicks II.<br /><br />The “Old Fashioned Christmas” [see above] is a copy of a greeting sent out by our nursery [Hicks Nursery, 100 Jericho Tpke, Westbury, NY] some years ago. It shows the house where Marianna, Gilbert and Edward Hicks, much smaller then. <br />I remember, from age 7, when the second story of the middle front section was raised to allow a big front bedroom and indoor plumbing at the back. <br />The next [?] extension was only one story when built in 1837, roof raised next about 1866, back wing 1874 (big kitchen) Up to 1906, nursery office was in the back parlor. My gr gr grandfather Isaac Hicks II had converted a dairy farm to the beginning of the nursery in 1858. <br />I was born there—my parents were married in 1900 and built the house across the road, which I’m now supposed to empty, in 1995.<br /><br />Your story of the supposedly destroyed piano is this – Emma Jarvis came to teach in Westbury about 1860. (She boarded with the Hicks family) and married son Edward Hicks in 1866 and brought her melodeon [forerunner of the pump organ] from her Cooperstown, NY home. <br />I believe it was “Preacher Rachel” [b. Seaman, married Abraham Hicks, son of Stephen & Mary] Hicks who when calling, was about to lay her bonnet on it, said, “<b><i>Isaac, I advise thee to chop it for kindling.” </i></b><br />It remained there till the time the house was bought by the Long Island Preservation Society. <br />We always called it “the aunts’ house” – Grace and Marietta [Hicks] were quite dominant in the business and in the family. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;">Great preservers of old records which I am not trying to get to the right places!<br />A last enclosure – a copy of a letter written by a young mother whose husband felt duty called him to accompany elderly Elias Hicks on his preaching missions. <br />He wrote a little later, “I feel clear to build us a new house next year.” (c. 1825) <br />That is the one on the site of the Phipps mansion. <br />That John D. [Hicks, of Isaac Hicks I] died in 1829, leaving Isaac II, Lydia, Robert, Samuel, Stephen and (posthumous) John D [she named most of his children] <b>Sarah [R. Rushmore, his wife] </b>brought up six children alone and lived to 103!<br /><br />If you want further explanation and stories that may be rattling around in my heard, better ask me soon! How long will I live? Doctors have been interested when I relate that I had to go back to 1730 before I could find a maternal ancestor who had not lived to between 90 and 100—and that doesn’t count Sarah at 103 on the Hicks side. (Many of those mothers were over forty –as was I.)<br />I have rambled on too long with this poor pen and poor writing. How I wish I had taken a business course somewhere along the line. Even so, I could never master modern computers as you are doing—all hail to you!</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><i style="font-size: 14pt;">[Note: Esther Hicks Emory lived part of the year at Foulkeways, a Quaker retirement community at Gwynedd PA.

I think because those people did not leave personal records as they were too <i>busy doing </i>things, they did not leave ‘tracks’ because they weren’t arrested, etc. And, they spent time with their loved ones, rather than "making a name" for themselves. Those uncatalogued and unknown deeds done by our predecessors will never get acknowledgement nor showcased. Our unsung heroes remain unsung because their deeds are in the past.</span></span></span></p></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span>So this tribute goes to my paternal grandfather (with a bow to my grandmother). </span></span></span></p></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span>My grandfather “Jack” (Victor) Higgins, who died in 1969, would fall into the category of a <b style="background-color: #fff2cc;">generous </b>man. </span></span></span></p></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></p></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span>I was reminded of this in September of 1991. When my father and his siblings threw a birthday party for my paternal grandmother, Catherine (Barnwell) Higgins. By then she had been a widow for a long time widow as my grandfather died at 63.</span></span></span></p></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span>At that party several of her children lived in the same town, or in surrounding communities. They got to reminiscing about their father. Aunt Grace who lived in town told a story that was very representative of my grandfather. She said: “I saw<i> ? name?</i> the other day. He talked about “Pop.” [my grandfather]. He still remembers him and said that Pop was the most generous man he ever met.” </span></span></span></p></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span>This is a remarkable statement about a man who had been dead for 25 years.

He did not like his stepfather so moved in with friends, finding his own way in the world. </span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;">Although his mother began her application for citizenship in the 1920s, she did not finalize it.

As a small child, I remember my grandfather would stop in to see her in Liberty when I was with him—he’d do that when he was en route to check with his half-brother Tom (who owned a bar in White Sulphur Springs). </span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;">I would guess he put himself in the role of being a father and coach (they were ball players) to his half-brothers. His mother died on December 9, 1960 at the age of 78 (if her birth date is accurate), when I was 5 years old. My grandfather kept up with the half-brothers.</span></span></div><p></p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipN-YKG_vn0sERU-6W1DfNQRuBavJgapjcmCKt0XKG88Ncme_VWZqMY0WDQeYI7j2MWvQ0K6c5-KbJaSx7tItW3sG6X52fNoKhLPV9WhniOi5gqEwg4G3jWM0HBFWEZojKBctsSkLHg906/s675/Joe+Devaney+halfbrother+Victor+Higgins+.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="675" data-original-width="430" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipN-YKG_vn0sERU-6W1DfNQRuBavJgapjcmCKt0XKG88Ncme_VWZqMY0WDQeYI7j2MWvQ0K6c5-KbJaSx7tItW3sG6X52fNoKhLPV9WhniOi5gqEwg4G3jWM0HBFWEZojKBctsSkLHg906/w408-h640/Joe+Devaney+halfbrother+Victor+Higgins+.jpg" width="408" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Joe Devaney (L) and Jack Higgins (half brothers) abt 1945<br /></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGwS5vWjxrzr-iDFb5uYsxFjf1_FKpcq0AMV_Yaw0zS03wprD-JopEQWUleNJqKmq_nTqTiKUOtixGLBkPE1596koMo3cdU-DLhKPLBZRD0SkZ5NHujciFZH5d3wYSW6VMTPVg6JDFZc2u/s557/Tom+Devaney+1958.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="413" data-original-width="557" height="474" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGwS5vWjxrzr-iDFb5uYsxFjf1_FKpcq0AMV_Yaw0zS03wprD-JopEQWUleNJqKmq_nTqTiKUOtixGLBkPE1596koMo3cdU-DLhKPLBZRD0SkZ5NHujciFZH5d3wYSW6VMTPVg6JDFZc2u/w640-h474/Tom+Devaney+1958.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Tom Devaney New Years Eve 1958 (half brother)<br /></td></tr></tbody></table></span></div><div><h2 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;"><b>Defying the Excuse: He Takes in those without Family</b></span></h2></div><div><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;">I mentioned in a prior post that “Hank” was a friend of the family—a bachelor who never married, but joined in with the family for all the holidays and spent Sunday meals at the house (where he worked in exchange for lending a hand).

They lived in a rental house in Neversink, NY. But soon that part of Neversink was set to become part of the NYC Reservoir, so they had to move. (The whole town moved to a nearby location & the old town was flooded abt 1940).<br /></span></span></p></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;"><span>The family moved to a house on the property of Woodbourne State Prison. When my father was at college, the single phone call from home that he received was to tell him that his parents’ house had burned down. The house had gone up in flames (kerosene heater) and the family escaped with their lives, but few possessions remained. </span></span></p></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;"><span>I went through the papers at the bottom of the old photo bin of my aunt’s. There I found some letters. I read that my grandfather applied for a mortgage to build a house on Budd Hill in 1947. </span></span></p></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;"><span>In the mortgage process, he received a letter saying he had an outstanding lien for $700. This lien had to be settled—either paid back or somehow included in his new loan. His new loan was about $6000. </span></span></p></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;"><span>I have no clue how he was able to get the loan. But the house was eventually finished. The new house was basic, and not of the best quality but it was big enough, had two toilets and it was theirs.</span></span></p></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;"><span>The data told me that a generous person is often (in today’s language) a "financially unfit" person.

My uncle and my grandfather had to return and rescue they infant twins and were both burned in the act. They lost goods, sentimental objects and photos.</span></span></p></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;"><span>But I venture to guess really cemented the bond between the Higgins family (who were transplanted “City” folk) and the locals. This was <i>particularly valuable</i> for my grandmother who for many years had to cook and clean for a large family, keeping her out of circulation.</span></span></p></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;"><span>In retrospect, once she was a widow, she could have moved then back to the city (or at any point later). But she remained in Woodbourne—apparently bonded to the place.</span></span></p></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;"><span>After the fire, the Woodbourne locals donated what they had (it was a low income town). They gave them household goods, and clothes, food, and shoes. </span></span></p></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;"><span>Someone had an abandoned farm house. It had little insulation and no toilet inside, but it was a house. They stayed there for free. And, like people do the world over, they gave them moral support.</span></span></p></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;"><span>In my view the tragedy of losing their house had the benefit of bonding them to the Woodbourne community. </span></span></p></div><div style="text-align: left;"><h2><b><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">An Excuse To Not Be Emotionally Generous: What Will People Think of Me?</span></b></h2></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">Defying Convention. </span></b><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">N</span><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">o</span> one is truly without prejudice. Hopefully we come to see and to reject our prejudicial reactions as we mature. My grandfather was seemingly a man without any. Of course, it was a different era, and I saw things through a narrow lens as a child, but I recall he was a kind man. My grandfather couldn’t be shoehorned into a mold, even though he enjoyed his pipe, his routine, and his religion.</span></span></p></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">At the time, I don’t think there were any blacks in our town, nor any ethnicity that was other than “white.” But in terms of religion, there was a lot of variety. That is often a divisive point. Every Sunday he would go to downtown. Woodbourne is small, the meeting of Route 42 and Route 52. Downtown was a small strip of shops on either side of the main road, including a soda fountain and a fire department, amongst others. </span></span></p></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">Across the Neversink River were a few more shops: <i>Katz</i>'s Bakery and <i>Lebed’s </i>drug store were practically facing one another. Katz’s made the best pumpernickel and rye bread; and on Sunday’s Lebed’s was my grandfather’s haunt. He would buy the Sunday paper, his tobacco, Grandma’s Lucky Strikes, and whatever else he needed on a pretext to chat. He was friendly in Katz’s but lingered in Lebed’s. Both places were owned by Jewish families. My grandfather was Irish Catholic.</span></span></p></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">He would chat with Mr. Lebed, and to anyone else who wandered into the store. </span></span></p></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">He gave money to help others, disregarding their religions or beliefs. He never missed a chance to donate to a good cause. If there was a hand-out, or a box out, he would drop money into it.</span></span></p></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">And, he quickly accepted my Quaker mother to the family as if there was no difference between her and his relatives of Catholic faith.</span></span></p></div><div><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;"></span></div><div><h2 style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">Conclusion: Filling the Bellies and Filling Hearts</span></b></h2></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p><span style="font-family: Nunito; font-size: large;"><span>He was supporting his own mother and, for a while, his half-brothers.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span><a href="http://nlintheusa.com/nlus/" target="_blank">Dutch-American Heritage Day</a> is this week, November 16. The Netherlands was
one of the first nations to recognize the fledging <span style="color: #333331; line-height: 107%;">American colonies as its own nation. Also, the Dutch sold Manhattan Island to the English for a song. Thank you...(I'll agree, the <i>Lenapes </i>got a raw deal). </span></span></span></span></p><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: arial;">

ran a baking and clothes bleaching business, when in <b>1625 </b>he was assigned as one of the <b><i>first </i></b>settlers to cultivate farms in the New Netherlands colony by the Dutch West India Company. (He was 46 in 1625, the Mayflower landed in 1620).</span></span></span></span></p><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: arial;">

1630, he returned to the Netherlands, where he entered into a contract with
Kiliaen Van Rensselaer to return to the colony to manage his farms. <span> (He was 51).</span></span></span></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span><span style="color: #333331;">Wolphert arrived in the colony aboard the ship
"Eendracht", where he proceeded in his duties as director for van
Rensselaer's farms in Rensselaerwyck and Fort Orange. [Near my house: today’s Renssealaer and
Albany, respectively. Quite far up the Hudson River from New York City]</span></span></span></span></p><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: arial;">
</span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span><span style="color: #333331;">His
contract was to run through 1636, but Gerretse requested it cancelled early so
he could pursue his own interests. Rensselaer agreed. In 1632, Gerretse was
released from his contractual obligations. (He was 53).</span></span></span></span></p><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: arial;">

thereafter, he leased a bouwerie (farm) in New Amsterdam and managed it until
1636, when he was granted a patent of several hundred acres on Long Island. (He was 57).</span></span></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span><span style="color: #333331;">He
called his plantation "Achervelt"; later it served as the founding of
the town of New Amersfoort, named after Gerritse's original home.</span></span></span></span></p><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: arial;">
</span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span><span style="color: #333331;">Today
the area is known as Flatlands (which is in Brooklyn). His plantation was located near the current

collector for $156,000 becoming “one of the oldest Dutch documents in private
hands.” The deed dated June 6, 1636 and was written in Dutch. It outlines the purchase of the land (3,600-acre) from the
Lenape Indians.</span></span></span></span></p><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: arial;">

very interesting communication of the 26th finds me temporarily in bed as being
the best place in the doctor's belief for me to complete recuperation from the effects
of the Farm Show and I have had the Dictaphone moved down to facilitate my
taking care of various business correspondence. The clipping for the 1860
Census taken by Aaron Sheely is interesting.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;"><br />
<span style="font-family: Nunito;">In 1859 Father [Charles J Tyson] left his home in Philadelphia where living
conditions were none too rosy to strike out for himself. As he was born in 1838
he was then just under 21 years of age. Just why he started in this direction
[towards Gettysburg] I don't completely recall, but he finally landed in York
[PA] and called on a photographer at that place asking for a job.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;"><br /></span><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">
<span style="font-family: Nunito;">The photographer had plenty of help, but suggested that there should be a good
opening for a photographer at Gettysburg and recommended that Father proceed
there and look over the situation which he did.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br />
Upon investigation he decided that Gettysburg should be a good starting point,
a situation which was concurred in by Judge Wills and several other prominent
Gettysburg people whom he consulted. </span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: medium;">He found that Judge Wills had a building
adjoining and in fact attached to his residence which, with certain
alterations, would be suitable for a photographic gallery and upon consultation
with carpenters it was determined that the necessary changes could be made for
$200.00, and Judge Wills agreed to stake him for the room rent for a year and
the carpenter for the carpenter work when Father divulged to them that he just
had $10.00 to his name.</span></span></div></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
It was arranged that the carpenter make alterations at once which they
estimated would take about two weeks.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Nunito;">And in the meantime Father returned to York and arranged to work for his board
with the photographer previously consulted for the purpose of learning the
business, he having no previous workable knowledge of it.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Nunito;">I think it was the following First-day [Sunday] after he had returned to
Gettysburg and started a business that he learned of a settlement of Friends
[Quakers] up this way [Menallen and Warrington Meetings], and hired a team and
drove out to Meeting and was invited home to dinner by Cyrus Griest which
proved to be a momentous trip and the start of a friendship which resulted in
his marrying Cyrus Griest’s daughter in April 1863.</span></span><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;"><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Nunito;">His business flourished and the report thee sends indicates that by June 1860
he had secured the assistance of his brother, Isaac Tyson, establishing the
firm of Tyson Bros. and continuing for several years until Uncle Isaac returned
to Philadelphia to open a gallery for himself in that city which he continued
the balance of his life, he having in the meantime married a first cousin of
Mother’s [Maria E Griest], Rachel Griest.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><br />
Father and Mother [Charles J Tyson & Maria Griest] lived on what was then
the lower end of Chambersburg Street at the time of the battle [Gettysburg] between the homes of William Boyer who was then
a grocery man with a store, which later became Eckerts store, and Annie
Hannaway and only a few doors east of John Burner’s home.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Nunito;">They were warned to leave their home on the first of July and left before noon
getting as far as Littlestown (south east) where they remained till the morning
of the 4th [Jul 4 1863]. </span><o:p></o:p></span><p></p>

For more on religious events at the time which may have some bearing on
Christopher Hawxhurst having been installed as a curate of St. Chad's.<br /></span></span></b></span></span></span></span></span><div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span><span style="font-size: medium;">"When
Queen Elizabeth I came to the throne in 1558 her people were divided by
religion. Her sister, Mary, had made Roman Catholicism the official
religion of the country, but many of the people were Protestant, and
there was a growing number of Puritans. </span></span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span><span style="font-size: medium;">To
bring together these different groups and ease religious tensions,
Elizabeth came up with what became known as the Religious Settlement. </span></span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span><span style="font-size: medium;">In 1559 she passed two laws:</span></span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span><span style="font-size: medium;"><b> 1-The Act of Supremacy</b>: making Elizabeth the Supreme Governor of the Church, taking power away from the Catholic Pope in Rome. </span></span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span><span style="font-size: medium;">(Henry
VIII had done the same in his reign, but called himself the Head of the
Church, so her title as Governor implied she would be less dictatorial,
more tolerant.)</span></span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><b><span><span style="font-size: medium;">2 -The Act of Uniformity</span></span></b></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span><span style="font-size: medium;">This made Protestantism England’s official faith and also set out rules of religious practice </span></span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span><span style="font-size: medium;">and worship in a revised prayer book. Between 1559 and 1563 introduced the acts which made up the Church Settlement. </span></span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span><span style="font-size: medium;">This
returned England to the Protestant faith stating that public worship,
religious books such as the Bible and prayers were to be conducted in
English rather than Latin. The new Book of Common Prayer was introduced,
adapted from earlier Books used under the Protestant Edward VI.</span></span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span><span style="font-size: medium;">But Elizabeth was careful not to erase all traces of Catholic worship and retained, for example, </span></span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span><span style="font-size: medium;">the traditions of candlesticks, crucifixes and clerical robes. </span></span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span><span style="font-size: medium;">By
pursuing a policy of moderation she was attempting to maintain the
status quo and, although Puritans were particularly upset by the
continuance of some Catholic traditions, an uneasy compromise was
reached and maintained throughout her reign.

received, and grew in the esteem of his friends to a father in the
church. In the year 1725 he was appointed an elder, and continued
faithful in fulfilling the duties of the station until prevented by age and
indisposition. His friends say he was innocent and inoffensive in life

Chew Street to Stenton Avenue, which was the township line. (See Map in History
of Old Germantown). </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">To complete the fifty acres there were 18 ¾ acres “broad

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">On Holmes Great Map of 1684, in the section which is easily
identified as the modern Abington Township, is a five hundred acre tract
extending from the Cheltenham Township line to the Susquehanna Street Road and
labeled “Isaac Hobbs.” </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">This is roughly described as being along certain lines of
marked trees 480 perches, just a mile and a half in length, and 167 perches, or
a little over one-half mile in width. This was patented to Hobbs in 1684
(Patent Book A, Vol 1, p. 259) </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">This tract Hobbs sold in 1699 to John Colley, a
hatter of Philadelphia, and he, in the following year, sold the half of it lying
next to Cheltenham Township to “Reynier Tyson of Germantown, Yeoman.” (Penna.
Archives, Second Series, Vol XIX, Minute Book “G,” p. 423.) <o:p></o:p></span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">Just when Reynier Tyson moved from Germantown to Abington is
not clear. </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">It was not until 1708 and 1709 that he sold his home and the
considerable other property he had accumulated in the Germantown Township, and
the presumption would be that he moved to Abington about that time. </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">He
continued to live on his Abington farm the remainder of his years. </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">His family
became closely identified with the social life of Abington Meeting and most of
his children intermarried with the members and attenders of that Meeting.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">In 1727 he and his wife Margaret conveyed the Abington farm
to their son Isaac, reserving to themselves, in the quaint language of the
deed, “One room, commonly called the stove room, and also the kitchen, and free
ingress and egress to the rest of the rooms in the said messuage, during the
remainder of their lives.” </span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">This home farm descended from Isaac to his son
Isaac (see Partition proceedings, Orphans Court, June 11, 1770), and again to
an Isaac and his sister Sarah who in 1830 sold it out of the family to Samuel
Schofield. </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">This land may be roughly identified as lying north of the Germantown
and Willow Grove Turnpike (or the Plank Road), and extending from Cheltenham
Township line on the northwest to the road leading from Jenkintown to
Fritzwatertown, called in some of the deeds, Jenkintown Road, on the southwest. </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">The growing village of Glenside was spread over its western portion, and old
property lines have long since disappeared. The land lay gently to the south on
the lower slopes of Edgehill, and is underlaid with limestone. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;">The lime which
was used to build the State House in Philadelphia is said to have come from the
<b>kilns on the Tyson place, whether this is some other Tyson farm in Abington is
unclear</b>. A little stream crosses it southwestwardly, flowing eventually into
Frankford Creek.</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">But I am lucky enough to have a full description from a magazine about</span><span style="background-color: yellow; font-size: large;"> Chester's activities </span><span style="font-size: large;">as a Board Member at State College, and what made him so distinctive as a Board Member that the school named a building after him. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The article below appeared in “Pennsylvania Farmer” It's a summary telling readers why buildings are named after people. (It has to do with sacrifice). </span>
</span><div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">After reading this, I can see why they named a building after him. (I believe his own children didn't know half of this information at the time). And, he's in that list of forebears I would have liked to have known. (The copy of the article is from my aunt Margaret B Tilton Walmer's archives.)</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">This year a building was named in his honor.</span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;">

<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">By a recent action of the Board of Trustees of the Pennsylvania
State University the building formerly known as the Plant Science Building is
now <b>Tyson Hall</b>. </span><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">Older subscribers to the Pennsylvania Farmer do not need to be
told who <b>Chester J Tyson</b> was, but for the younger generation it is well to give
a bit of his history, as his life was a fine example for public service.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">Gabriel Hiester was a prominent fruit grower in the vicinity
of Harrisburg. At A delegate meeting at the College in 1879, he was elected to
the Board of Trustees. He was appointed to the Executive Committee of the Board
in 1908 and served on the Agriculture Advisory Committee until his death in
1912. During Heister’s period of service the delegates from the county agricultural
and engineering organizations were largely from the county horticultural
societies and Hiester was regarded as representing the horticultural interests
on the Board although he was too broad a man to confine his efforts to any one
branch of agriculture.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">SEVERE LOSS<o:p></o:p></span></b></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">Gabriel Hiester’s death in 1912 was a severe loos to the Board
of Trustees and presented a serious problem to the delegates to appoint a
replacement of his caliber. At the meeting in 1912 Chester J Tyson was
selected.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;">The Tysons, an old Quaker family, had moved from the Philadelphia
area into Adams County at Flora Dale near Biglerville and established a fruit
nursery and commercial planting of apples. Chester grew up in these
surroundings and later with his two brothers he expanded the orchard plantings
and organized an orchard supply company which became well known throughout the
Cumberland-Shenandoah orchard area.</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">TYSON A TRUSTEE<o:p></o:p></span></b></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Chester Tyson</b> came to the Board of Trustees at a critical
time. Penn State was just beginning to recognize its future role as a land
grant college and to realize the importance of the School of Agriculture in
that development. In 1912 the School had an enrollment of 514 regular four-year
students and a faculty of 60. The recent development of the agricultural extension
division and establishment of the country agricultural extension agent service
was bringing the school in much closer contact with the farmers of the state.
The general increase in college enrollment following the close of the first World
War was necessitating a very rapid development of the School of Agriculture
along with a large increase in the entire College. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">To aid in securing new staff
members, to get increased appropriations for new buildings and to expand the
college area, especially the College farms, to keep up with this growth,
required dedicated service from the Trustees both at State College and at
Harrisburg. </span><br />
</span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;">In those days there was no Nittany Lion Inn and only a horse-drawn
carryall for transportation. A meeting of the Board of Trustees could mean
three to four days away from home and uncertain accommodations at State
College.</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Chester Tyson</b> took all these responsibilities very seriously.
The rapid expansion of campus buildings was overrunning the areas formerly used
by the Horticulture Department. When New Beaver Field took the land where the
second College orchard was planted, one of the last acts of Gabriel Hiester was
to secure the area now called the Hiester Farm for the future use of the
Horticulture Department. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Tyson followed the development of these orchards very
closely and during nearly every Board meeting took time to go over plans and to
visit the area. Frequently he persuaded Dean Watts to go with him. </span><br />
</span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;">The close friendship
between Watts and Tyson many times worked to the advantage of the School of
Agriculture during Board Meeting.</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">TYSON AND BAYARD<o:p></o:p></span></b></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Chester Tyson</b> and <b>Ed Bayard</b> believed it was their
responsibility to know personally the staff of the School of Agriculture.
Bayard kept close watch of agronomy and the animal industries; Tyson’s special
interest was horticulture. </span><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">Hardly a Board meeting went by without these men
spending some time with staff members in their particular fields. Also they
were always interested in the problem of selecting new members. Although it was
not his particular field, Ed Bayard was responsible for bringing Frank Fagan to
Penn State.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;">These visits did not stop with the department head. The
staff was small in those days and Bayard and Tyson together knew practically
all in the School of Agriculture. No new farms were purchased without the careful
study of these two. They knew the research program and followed its development
closely. Their shrewd but kindly criticism and suggestions encouraged many a
young staff member through very trying times.</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">Practically all of the research program of the Horticulture
Department had its beginning during Tyson's period of service. He served on the
Executive Committee of the Board from 1924 until his death in 1938. In this
position he was able to secure budgetary recognition of the needs of the
Department at a time when money was very difficult to secure. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">His standing among commercial growers was a great help in establishing contacts
for field studies. The limited facilities and restricted finances at State
College made it necessary to conduct many field tests with the fruit and
vegetable growers of the state. Any of the Tyson orchards was always available
for such tests.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
</span><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">FINANCIAL SACRIFICE<o:p></o:p></span></b></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">Very few people, even staff members, realize the financial
contribution the early trustees made in long service on the Board. Ed Bayard
once said it had cost him $10,000 during his period of service and this did not
include loss of time spent on College business. </span><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">Tyson’s expenses were probably
very close to Bayard’s. To carry on the half dozen experiments in his own orchards
was no small addition to this expense.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="tab-stops: 274.5pt;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;">Institutions are notoriously forgetful
of their benefactors. In a College generation the services of its pioneers are
all but forgotten. The least that could be done was to dedicate a suitable
building to one whose services have meant so much to the growth of the
University."</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">An Unforgettable Family</span></b></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
</h3>
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">What makes a family unforgettable?
What makes a family unforgettable? An outsized story? And adventurous spirit full of pioneers, wildernesses and hardships? Or one of contrasts? Of great gain and loss? Or, the characters who make it up? An convict, and a detective? Or, a clergyman, a political leader, or a warrior? A research scientist or a fantastically creative artist? </span><br />
</span><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="background-color: #ead1dc; font-size: large;">Or just a family which was full <b>"kindness, goodness, and love"</b>? </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">My great grandfather Chester Tyson and his wife Bertha Hawxhurst filled a house full of children (house is pictured at the top of this blog).
They had to have household help to keep things running in the house. Bertha usually had more than one person helping her and when my grandmother was old enough, she was drafted to help out as well. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">Daisy Orner was a "regular" who worked for many years at the Tyson homestead or "Hill House" as some people referred to it. Near the end of my grandmother's life, she moved back to her home (which was owned then by her daughter). Apparently Daisy heard Elizabeth, child of Chester and Bertha, was in town and wrote her a letter. I don't know what prompted it. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Daisy must have been very old at the time as my grandmother was likely in her late 80s.
She describes the household as one "filled with kindness, goodness, and love" ( and who would know better than someone who was there everyday?)
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">In my estimation, that would make the Tyson-Hawxhurst family unforgettable.

<span style="font-size: x-large;">Two Stories of Trouble Making</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">Genealogy is boring. Walking through a field of broken headstones, or looking through old books, or at stained, black & white photos of old people <u>is</u> boring. <i>Unless </i>you knew the people, or know the stories. Personal history can be everything that a movie or play is: funny, tragic, mundane, sweet, horrific and etc. </span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">I</span><span style="font-size: large;">n 1987 my mother's sister Mardy (Margaret Tilton) recorded her mother's (double) cousin's reminisces in 1987. Corrine was the best candidate to interview at the time as she was 10 years older than cousin (Elizabeth, Mardy's mother). Also, Corrine's father (Edwin C Tyson) was nearly 10 years older than Elizabeth's father. Not only that, he (Corrine's father) had been keeper of the family <i>genealogy</i>. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I came across a transcription of the 1987 interview.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I excerpted two short stories told by Corrine (Tyson Lambert), so you'll read just a gist of the story, and neither is in perfect, fluid sentences.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The first story is of her newly-wed grandmother (Maria Edith Griest, w of Charles John Tyson) and her great uncles. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The second is of her Maria's parents Cyrus Griest and Mary Ann Cook (Griest) who were Quaker participants in the local Underground Railroad in Adams County, PA (see map below to see how close their area was to Gettysburg).</span></span><br />

<span>John Joseph Lawrence Barnwell, Long Name, Small Man</span></h2>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">When my father spoke of his grandfather, his mother's father, he _always_ said he was a small man "with bandy legs" (I don't know why the legs were mentioned). My dad was born in 1929 and by the time his grandparents were in his conscious life, they still had a brood of children at home in a cramped apartment in New York City or one of its boroughs.</span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><div>
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">I never saw a good photo of John JL Barnwell for this was the era when the the poor, and lower classes had precious few photos, and those they had were well-handled and often didn't survive for long. </span><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">The photo I finally saw of him over 10 years ago was after his work accident which rendered him essentially crippled for life. He had to sit home while his wife was the superintendent and cleaner of the building. </span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><div>
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">When I saw this photo below he looked (to me) that he was of average height.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><i>Background on William E. Hawxhurst (which he spelled Hauxhurst)</i></span><br />
</span><span><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">"William E. Hawxhurst, of Westbury, was born here in 1838, and is a son of Ephraim C. and Charity (Titus) Hawxhurst. He traces his ancestry back to Christopher Hawxhurst, a native of England, who crossed the ocean in 1665 and settled in what is now Locust Valley, Queens County, L.I., becoming one of the first settlers of the town of Oyster Bay, and in time one of its largest land owners. <br />His children were William, Mary and Sampson. <br />The maternal grandparents of our subject were Timothy and Margaret (Titus) Titus, both descendants of Edmund Titus, the first of that name who settled in Queens County. The family homestead, where our subject was born, became in 1832 the property of his father, who continued to reside there until his death, in 1859.<br /> The boyhood days of the subject of this notice were passed on the home farm, in the cultivation of which he assisted. For a time he attended a private school in his neighborhood. <br />When but a boy he took up the study of civil engineering and in it he was especially interested. Under his father, who was a civil engineer, he continued his studies until he had acquired a thorough knowledge of the work. <br />At the death of his father the home place came into his possession, and afterward he engaged in its cultivation for a number of years, but finally abandoned agriculture in order that he might give his entire attention to surveying. <br />However, he continued to reside on the farm, which was cultivated under his supervision.<br /> For the past twenty-five years Mr. Hawxhurst has devoted almost his entire time to surveying. For ten years past he has also dealt quite extensively in real estate, conducting the sale of land purchased by wealthy residents who have recently located here. <br />He was completed a fine map of Westbury, showing the original purchases and subsequent owners. <br />His surveying has been principally in the towns of Oyster Bay, Hempstead and North Hempstead. <br />He has laid out over one thousand acres in town lots and has opened roads and fixed boundary lines. <br />In politics he is a Republican, and cast his first ballot for Abraham Lincoln. <br />In 1885 he was appointed notary public and served five successive terms. He is a member of the Society of Friends.<br />In September, 1869, Mr. Hawxhurst married Miss <b>Marianna Hicks</b>. <br />To them have been given six children, namely: Mary W., wife of Edwin C. Tyson; <br />Caroline, wife of Prof. Frederick Sharpless; <br />Wallace, who is engaged in business with his father; <br />Florence, <br />Harold E. and <br /><b>Bertha.</b> [who married <b>Chester Tyson</b>, brother of Edwin Tyson] <br />Mr. Hawxhurst has given his children good educational advantages. <br />In 1895 he sold a portion of the home farm, on which was situated the old family dwelling, but this he moved to its present location and had it completely remodeled, putting in steam heating apparatus and other modern improvements that have made of it a commodious and comfortable residence.</span></span><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span style="font-size: small;"> <i>Source: "Portrait and Biographical Record of Queens County (Long Island) New York" Copyright 1896 by Chapman Publishing Company</i></span></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span><br />

</span></span><div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Thy letter was received this morning in regard to “The Herald"
article and on Westbury. The reporter interviewed me and I gave him a lot of
stuff orally. He took notes but, of course, did not get everything as I told
him. I did not give him the history of the Pump at the Turnpike. That he embellished
from his own imagination. The article, nevertheless, was pretty fair. That was Buster
at the half-door. The picture was all right but the process of copying in the
paper destroyed the beauty of it. The reporter had lots of reverence for old
things. He could hardly give up looking at the samplers that hang in our wall.
Thee will remember that we have Mary Fry’s sampler made when she was a school-girl,
dated 1724, which is in perfect preservation.</span></span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">

<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">As to the title of the land in Westbury.
The Dutch, thee knows, settled the west end of Long Island and owned and
claimed the land. A company of men, viz., Robert Fordham, John Strickland, John
Ogden, John Carman, John Laurance and Jonas Wood, obtained a patent on March 6<sup>th</sup>
, 1666 from the Dutch governor Kieft for the Town of Hempstead which, of
course, included Westbury. Previous to that there is no record of owners of
the land here except the Indians. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>From
that time “The Proprietors,” as the company of men called themselves, owned the
land in common. They had meetings which they adjourned from time to time and
called them Town Meetings. I neglected to state that the said "Proprietors"
purchased the land besides from the Indians. The Town Meetings made the laws
and regulations for the Town and for small consideration, would give
individuals land grants or deeds for land, every landholder becoming one of the
“Proprietors,” so that their numbers increased pretty fast.</span></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"> </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">A man by the name of Seaman obtained
a grant of the “Proprietors" for all Westbury, i.e., for quite a large

<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Henry Willis, thy ancestor,
purchased the Rachel Hicks place from Seaman and built a home and lived thereon
near Buttonball Pond in the Barrack Lot on the Mary Seaman place. Henry
Willis's daughter married Nathaniel Seaman who subsequently purchased the
place.</span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">

<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"> Henry Willis's son, William Willis,

<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">William Willis, in his will, gave
this place to his two sons, Samuel and Jacob, besides much of the land in
Westbury. </span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">

<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Jacob bought out the interest of
his brother Samuel. Jacob never married. He was not rugged and died young. In
his will, he ordered his executors to sell all his land which they did, and
this place was purchased by Richard Willis, son of John and nephew of Jacob who
lived here a generation and then sold the place to John Loines. John Loines
lived here a generation then sold the place to Benjamin Hicks, Uncle Joseph
Hick’s father. </span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">

<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">He owned it a short time, never living

grandfather of Mary Seaman.</span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">

<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Richard Willits built our house
somewhere about 1820. He lived here a number of years, then sold the place to
William Willis of Jericho, a grandson of Samuel Willis and Mary Fry. </span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">

<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">William Willis owned the farm for
about one year when my father [Ephraim Cock Hauxhurst] purchased it for about $2500.
William Willis moved back to Jericho. The rest of the title thee knows.</span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">

<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">As to the bulrushes thee spoke of,
that episode did not happen here. The Town of Flushing obtained a grant of land
also from the Dutch Governor later confirmed by the Duke of York, brother of
Charles II. The Town of Flushing also bought out the Indians and it was in the
Indian deed that the reservation was made for them to obtain bulrushes anywhere
and at any time forever for them and their descendants. </span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">

Hollow. </span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">

<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Matinecock was the name of an Indian tribe who lived on the north side
of the Island [Long Island] Matinecock Hollow was the old Indian trail used by
the Indians in traveling from the north to the south side to obtain clams and
fish and dry them and when they had a supply they would go back again home.
There are hundreds of loads of shells, always in heaps, on the south side where
the Indians had their camps and left the clam shells. The Indians, thee may not
know, called Long island Sewanhaka, meaning Island of Shells. </span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">

<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">The Town of
Hempstead, I'm proud to say, was not stolen from the Indians but was purchased
from them after “The Proprietors" had obtained their patent from the Dutch
Governor Keift. The name of the Indian Chief from whom the purchase was made
was Tacaposia. The deed, or copy thereof, is in the records of the Town of
Hempstead. </span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">

<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">It may interest you to know that
thy Willis ancestors living in Westbury where landholders and were well-to-do
people, and they, part of them, I know by their wills, and probably all of them,
owned slaves. Henry Willis, the elder, had slaves, and his son Henry, who owned
Uncle Stephen R. Hicks’s farm, and William Willis, who owned our farm, kept
slaves, so that in all probability all the land in Westbury was cleared of
timber and swamps by slaves. In fact, there is no doubt about it.</span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"> </span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">

<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">It is a curious fact that the names
of residents, landowners, of Westbury has changed about every 100 years. I have
memoranda to show that. Around 1860 to 1880 the old residents died off, their
property being sold and strangers came in and bought up their farms. The
exceptions are, old John Titus's place, the Rachel Hicks place and in a measure
the William Hicks or Hitchcock place. Since 1860-70, Westbury has steadily been
denuded of its old residents and their descendants. Their places have been sold
and people of other names and character will soon own all of lovely Old
Westbury. It is sort of sad. In our Firstday Meetings [Quaker worship service] there is not a single man
of my age and that I care particularly about who comes to meeting, except
occasionally William Townsend. I will not burden thee with anymore of this long
rambling letter. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If it reminds thee of
any more that thee would like to know, ask, and if I can, I will answer thee. </span></span></div>

Williams. He had nothing to do with the land on Long Island, except acting as
arbitrator to settle a disputed line in the Town of Oyster Bay. Tradition says
that Robert Williams, cousin of Roger, sent for him to come to Long Island as
follows: <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Robert Williams had a grant
from the King of England for a large tract of land, i.e., all the Plain land in
the Town of Oyster Bay and a large part of the Plains in the Town of Hempstead.
Robert Williams’ grant formed the eastern boundary of the Town of Hempstead
over which there was no dispute, but there was a dispute about the east line of
the Robert Williams purchase, between it and the adjoining grant or purchase of
some people, or brothers by the name of Mayo, called Mayo's Purchase. To settle
this dispute, Robert Williams had his cousin Roger come over from Rhode Island
to settle the difficulty by fixing the line, which he did and ended the
dispute. Mayo's line is now in existence, but here I am spinning out another
yarn. </span></span></div>

One day, thanks to Ancestry. com, I was searching the NYC marriage record index (thanks to "Reclaim the Records"), and I found an "Irene Higgins" who married in 1927 and "she" married a woman named Catherine. Aha!</span></span></div><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;">

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><br />
When I went to the index I found it was indexed as "Irene V Higgins" - I clicked on the imaged and read it. This is what it said:</span></span></div>

Depression had forced my grandfather to take up jobs which were wholly
unsuitable for him. He never made much money-enough to keep body and soul
together. His wife did what she could to contribute. At the start of World War
2 began, her son found out he could become a commissioned officer, so he signed
up. In the war
he was with Air Force intelligence. When the war was over, he returned
unscathed. </span></span></p><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">

the 'baby' was still at home. When Charles returned from the war, he and
Elizabeth set up a nursery business that was limping along. </span></span></p><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">

February of 1949, Flora was not yet 82. She made out her will in her own hand.
I don't know why but since she died later that year, perhaps the doctor gave
her some bad news? She turned 82 that June. The month following on July 6, 1949,
she died in Gettysburg, PA. My grandfather was 47 years old. (The following
year my mother got married to my father). She is buried at the Menallen Friends
Meeting.</span></span></p>

<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">~ He married <b>Elizabeth Van De Wall[e</b>], the daughter of <b>Jacobus Van De Walle </b>and <b>Agatha Hess </b>in 1646/47 in Gemen, Munster, Germany.<br />
~ Elizabeth Van De Wal[e]l was born 21 May 1626 in Wesel, Germany. She died in Gemen, Munster, Germany.<br />
<b>Move to Pennsylvania</b><br />
Elizabeth Van de Walle's brother, Jacob Van der Walle, was a wealthy Dutch Pietist and a prominent shareholder in the Frankfort Company which owned and organized Germantown, PA.<br />
After William Penn acquired his Pennsylvania land in 1681, he needed settlers so he traveled throughout Europe seeking settlers, particularly Friends (Quakers) and Mennonites. Penn also found partners for the venture who had agents to help acquire more settlers.<br />
One of these partnerships, organized about 1683, was the <i>Frankfort Company</i> (1683) and one partner in the Frankfort company was Jacob Van De Walle, brother-in-law of Rosier Levering (whose wife was Elizabeth Van De Walle).</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Children of Rosier Levering and Elizabeth Van De Walle</b><br />
Rosier Levering and Elizabeth Van De Walle had several children, including Wigard (son).<br />
<b>II Wigard Levering and Magdalena Boeckers (Gen 2)</b><br />
Their son <b>Wigard Levering </b>was born in 1640s in the town of Gemen, Munster, Germany.<br />
In April 1674, he married <b>Magdalena Boeckers,</b> of Wesel, Germany.<br />
The earliest record of Wigard Levering and his wife, Magdalena Boeckers, appears in the records of the Presbytery of the Evangelical Parish of Gemen, Munster Stadt, Westphalia, Germany.<br />
On March 22, 1674, the first wedding banns for "Wigard Levering, Rosier's son, with Magdalena Bokers, of Essen," were proclaimed.<br />
<b>Mulheim Germany</b><br />
They lived in Gemen first, then moved to Mulheim (where son William Levering was born).<br />
No doubt Wigard's uncle, Jacob Van De Walle, was an agent for getting Wigard Levering into a contract with the Frankfort Company at Wesel to ship the family to Philadelphia (dated 20th of March, 1685).<br />
Their agreement with the Frankfort Company is at the Pennsylvania Historical Society:<br />
"We, the subscribers, do acknowledge and confess by these Presents, that we have contracted and agreed together, that Doctor Thomas Van Wylick and Johannes Le Brun, in behalf of the Pennsylvania Company, in which they, and other friends of Frankfort and other parts, are engaged, to accept or receive me, Wigard Levering, old 36 or 37 years, and Magdalena Boeckers, old 36 years, and four children, Anna Catherine, William, Amelia, and Sibella, respectively 1/2, 2 1/2, 5 and 9 years, to and for the service of the aforementioned Company, to transport by shipping out of Holland or Ingland, to Pennsylvania, upon their cost. On Their arrival in Pennsylvania, they were to report themselves to Francis Daniel Pastorius, who was general agent for the company. Written upon the margin of the instrument an agreement to include "the Contractor's brother, Gerhard Levering."</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>New Chapter: Wigard & Magadelena's Emigration</b><br />
They emigrated that year to America with four children, sailing to Philadelphia on “Penn's Woodland” from the Netherlands. They first settled in Germantown (outside of Philadelphia).<br />
In August, 1685, the Frankfort Company conveyed 50 acres of land in Germantown to Wigard Levering.<br />
A recorded deed, executed in August 1685 reads: "On the tenth of that month and year, Francis Daniel Pastorius, as the attorney of Jacob Van de Walle and others, forming the Frankford Company, conveyed to Wigard Levering a lot in Germantown containing fifty acres of land. So done in Germantown, on the 10th day of the 6th month (August), in the year of Christ 1685, in the sixteenth year of the reign of King James the Second of England, and in the fifth year of the reign of William Penn.'"<br />
Wigard and his brother Gerhard Levering became freemen in 1691.<br />
Once Wigard was a free man, he bought 500 of land and his brother bought adjoining land, near the Wissahickon Creek to the Schuylkill River—most of Roxborough (slightly west). They lived there for the rest of their days.<br />
<b>Breaking a Contract:</b><br />
When they immigrated both Wigard and Gerhard Levering were indentured to the Frankfort Company. (Indentured/Redemptioned laborers who lived in servitude for a set number of years in exchange for passage to the American colonies from England or Germany. They were considered chattel that could be bought and sold until the period of their servitude expired.) And although Wigard was indebted to the efforts of others for his relative prosperity and the benefit of no longer living in the church-state of Germany, he chose to get out from his obligation to the agents by suing to break the contract a full fourteen years after his immigration. Perhaps he believed that he had fulfilled his obligation? I can't know. A document reveals how Pastorious felt:<br />
“… He…sued the said Comp; as debtors to him & to deprive me, the now Agent of the said Company of all advice & assistance in Law, employed all the Attorneys in the Country, who pleading that he the said Wigard, his wife & 4 children are not to discount anything for their Transportation, obtained Judgment in the last County Court against the said Company, for 32L 16s 10d. Now supposing the said German Company had Intended to transport the said Wigard his wife & children gratis or free, as I have proofs to the contrary… Therefore your Petitioner in the behalf of the said German Comp. humbly entreats you to grant to have the cause tried again (a thing he thinks not so unheard of as that a Plaintiff should employ all the Lawyers to impede & hinder the Defendants to get any) And to the end that a Just Cause may not suffer by my unskillfullness in pleading & notorious want or defect to express myself sufficiently in the English tongue to the full understanding of a Jury; May it please the Govr & his Council to appoint a Person learned in the Law to patronize or manage the same. And as your Petitioner requests these things only for Justice & Truths sake, so (he hopes) it will tend to the preventing both of others, who being transported by the said Company's disbursement may probably follow the steps of Wigard; as also to the allaying of dissatisfaction of several honest hearted people in Germany and especially oblidge your Petitioner.<br />
- F.D. Pastorious "</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Personal: </b><br />
Wigard Levering spoke German and was unable to write. His wife Magdalena died when she was about 67, in 1717 at the age of about 67 years.<br />
Wigard (some people called him John) died in February 1745/46. His age was estimated between 103-107 when he died and was buried upon his farm.<br />
The location is now part of Fairmount Park of Philadelphia. Later it became the churchyard and burial ground of the Baptist Church. It is now Leverington Cemetery.<br />
It is now Leverington Cemetery.<br />

[In 1689, William Penn had a census taken and found about a thousand Swedes; nevertheless, the Germans outnumbered them greatly in a short span of time. The Welsh were prominent across the Schuylkill in Merion Township.]<br />

<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">My 4th great grandmother had two sisters who were quite happy to remain as Quakers until a powerful influencer (for lack of a better word) made remaining in the Quaker fold intolerable for them.</span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">

</span></span><div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">The two sisters (Amy and Sarah) were great supporters of abolition of slavery and there were forces inside Quakerism which felt that that was inappropriate.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span>Three sisters of my 4th great grandmother (Mary Kirby) had a tumultuous time after leaving Long Island. </span></b><br />
<span><b>HANNAH:</b>Hannah and Isaac Post married in Jericho, Long Island, NY in the early 1820s. In 1823 they moved to Cayuga County, NY.</span><br />
<span>In 1827, Hannah Kirby Post <b>died</b>.</span><br />
<span><b>AMY: </b>In the meantime, sister Amy Kirby had moved upstate to nurse Hannah. The year after her death, Isaac Post (widower) and Amy Kirby were wed.</span><br />
<span><b>SARAH: </b>In 1838 Sarah Kirby moved upstate and married 1st, Jefferies Hallowell in 1838 (d. 1844); Married 2nd, Edmund P Willis in 1853.</span><br />
<span><b>MARY (my great grandmother): </b>Remained in Jericho, married to <b>John Willis.</b></span><br />
</span></span><b><br /></b><span style="font-size: large;">
<span style="font-family: Nunito;">Both Sarah Kirby (Hallowell/Willis) and Amy Kirby (Post) were active in anti-slavery work (abolitionist movement).</span></span><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
<span>They were members of the newly-formed Western New York Anti-Slavery Society in 1842, and worked on its many Antislavery Fairs (fundraising events).</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">There was quite an exchange of letters between the sisters in Rochester and Long Island.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">One letter (which is in the Univ. of Rochester Library) is to Amy Kirby Post and is a recounting, or a reporting of a Quaker business meeting which took place in May 1842 in Westbury, and was written by Mary's husband John Willis.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">He gives a report on the outcome of an appeal from a person who was to be disowned from the Friends meeting. I had believed until I read the background at that period that I understood why people were disowned. </span></span><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">What caught my attention was his warning to his sister-in-law at at the end of the letter.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: yellow;">Thanks to<b> George F White,</b></span><span style="background-color: white;">t</span><span style="background-color: white;">h</span>e Genesee Yearly Meeting of the Society of Friends, to which Sarah & her husband belonged, was against slavery, but its ministers and elders disapproved of the a</span><span style="font-size: large;">activities of many anti-slavery advocates.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">Who WAS George F White & what was the problem with speaking of Abolition?</span></b></span><br />
<b><br /></b><span style="font-size: large;">
<span style="font-family: Nunito;">In the 1840s George F White was a prominent Quaker minister and followed Elias Hicks' teachings (which had created a division around 1827).</span></span><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Minister George F White was “anti-Anti.” He was quite persuasive; preaching that the Quakers should <i>not </i>come out <i>against anything</i>.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">For example, he was against being against slavery (anti-abolitionist), but he was not pro-slavery. White strongly warned the Friends using forceful terms, against participating in antislavery and other reform movements, which were otherwise seen as advancing Quaker ideas.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">He was apparently pro-George F White.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">He was highly controversial figure, creating division among the Quakers.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">His influence was so strongly felt that New England & New York Yearly Meetings <i>prohibited </i>abolitionist speeches and later on temperance and suffrage meetings in its facilities.</span><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">Amy Kirby (sister of Mary Kirby Willis) during this time worked with Frederick Douglass in Rochester and invited him to speak at <i><b>Westbury </b></i>(Long Island) Meeting.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">However, this was cancelled when some in the meeting objected to Douglass’ message. Frederick Douglass instead met with locals but did not speak at the Quaker meetinghouse.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">George F White's influence was felt all over, and in Western New York (Rochester and surrounding areas), the ground shifted for the Quakers.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">There, the NY (Hicksite) Quarterly Meeting refused to allow anti‐slavery lecturers in the meetinghouse, saying even though Quaker, they were paid by abolition societies. This broke the general Quaker rule against using a “hireling ministry” (paid).</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Tensions grew over how to resolve the conflicts within meetings: George F White had created more problems than he had solved.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">In Western NY some people, such as Amy (Kirby) and Isaac Post left Genesee Yearly Meeting altogether. Then in 1848 about 200 others formed a separate Yearly meeting.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The controversy that surrounded George F White’s<i> crusade against reform movements </i>eventually created fracture nearly every Hicksite Yearly meeting.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Going back to the letter at the beginning of the post:</b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The letter is John Willis' account to his sister-in-law is his own recollection of an <i>appeal by James S Gibbons</i> on his possible disownment. There were three people in jeopardy at this time: </span><span style="font-size: large;">Isaac T Hopper, his son-in-law James S. Gibbons, and Charles Marriott. <i><b>The problem?</b></i> They had what was viewed as improper associations with nonQuaker abolitionist movements.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>After over a year of deliberation</b>, New York Monthly Meeting disowned the men in 1842.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">A few (not all) reasons listed for disowning the men:</span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><div>
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">"1.<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Such activity implied that something was wrong with Friends testimonies. Faith should be sufficient to cause change; therefore, it was not necessary to form or participate in man‐made organizations.</span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><div>
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">2.<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Such activity ignored the slaveholders, many of whom were performing a moral good by making slaves morally good and happy; it also ignored the problems that abolition would bring to slaveholders.</span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><div>
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">3.<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Such activity employed strong language and harsh activities unbefitting to Friends.</span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><div>
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">4.<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Quakers belong to a religious society, not a benevolent society; therefore, slavery was not a proper issue for the care of the Religious Society of Friends."</span></span></div><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><div><span style="font-family: Nunito;">
</span><br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">The above list pretty much lays bare the problem changing things in society for the better; one of the great obstacles to change is overcoming inertia against change.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">[The two sisters of Mary, Sarah and Amy, eventually left the Society of Friends (Quakers). Both Sarah and Amy were one of the many former Quakers who often gathered at the Anthony home on Sundays to discuss reform activities, including anti-slavery and women's rights.]</span><br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;">First and last page of John Willis' letter to Amy Kirby Post (transcribed)</span></b></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Nunito;"><span style="font-size: large;">Jericho 5th (May) 30th 1842<br />My much esteemed sister - [meaning sister-in-law-]<br />Amy Post<br /> We have now returned from our Yearly Meeting and feel something of a cold otherwise all pretty well. Our Yearly meeting was large and the business that came before it was conducted in much harmony and brotherly love we had in the company of good many strangers some from Philadelphia, Baltimore, Genessee [county] and Can`n`ady, and the subjects that thee may feel an interest in </span><br />
</span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Nunito;">I will give some account of the first business take up in the second sitting was the appeal of TTH (?) ht meeting appointed four-from each quarterly, Westbury excepted which made 36 in number. I had objected to 3 of those that where appointed and they were accordingly released and 3 others appointed in their stead with which Isaac [Hopper] felt satisfyed [sic] in the commencement of the appointment Isaac requested that he might have the company of his son in law James S Gibbons to set with him, which was granted then asked James S G. weather [sic] he intended to prosecute appeal James said before he answered that question it would be necessary for him to make a few remarks. He said it never was agreeable to his judgement to appeal but he did so on consideration <br />to his friend (but I think such friends are not worth having) and to prosecute the appeal for the sake of controversy he had no wish to do and further he had no wish to be a member of N. York monthly Meeting as he thought the regulations of that meeting would conflict with his duty's [sic] he therefore declined proceeding any further and would withdraw from the contest. he said a good deal more but the above is about the substance.<br />The Meeting then proseeded [sic] on with its usual business until Sixth Day morning when the clerk informed that there was<br />a report from the committee on the appeal on the table which was accordingly taken up The report was as follows that they had attended to their appointment had heard the appellant and the quarterly Meeting committee in the case, and that 18 where [sic] for confirming the judgment of the quarterly Meeting 15 for reversing it, and three declined giving any opinion in the case. John (Rh)uman asked weather [sic] it would be thought....</span><br />-----------ETC -----------<br /><span style="font-family: Nunito;"><b>(END OF LETTER)</b><br />I have wrote a considerable >this is the last (page?)< but I suppose it will not be very exceptable [sic] information to thee but thee must try to hear it for it does appear that moddern [sic] abbolitionism [sic] is on the dicline [sic] with us [meaning Quakers], not that the interes[t] in the welfare of the slave is on the dicline [sic] by any means, that and moddern abbolition [sic] is two very different subjects--- <b>Father and Mother expects to make<br />you a visit and if you want them to have an agreeable visit you must talk something besides Abolition and George F White.</b><br />Effectionately [sic] thine -<br />John Willis</span></span><br />
