printer and business manager of the Republican Register.

from the Handy Annals-- On July 1, 1854 he removed to Milton NC where intending to make that place his permanent home, he became an associate editor of the Milton 'Spectator', but the principal editor dying in the month of October following, he declined carrying on the paper alone and returned after a brief sojourn in Raleigh to his old home at the seat of government. He arrived in Washington on April 22, 1858 (1855?), and engaged immediately as a compositor on the 'American' organ and remained in this employment for two years. Having once lived at the South, he now became perfectly restless and discontented with the Capital and longed to get back among a people whom he regarded as "sovereigns and not as servants" and in June 1857, he accepted the position of foreman in the Book and Job Printing Office of C.

At the age of 11 years, he entered the job printing office of Wm. Q. Force, and went through all the grades to be found in such offices until after ten years of patient toil he emerged from his aprenticeship a full-edged journeyman printer.

He then went to Milton? NC where he conducted a country paper for another person for a year and then returned to WASHINGTON DC where for some time he took cases on a daily newspaper. From there in 1857 he next went to ATLANTA GA, wher he resided for fifteen years or until 1872. He was engaged during this time as journeyman, foreman and manager of various offices. The last office of which he had charge was that of the National Era and in that capacity he also had ovesight of the State printing, which was done by that firm.

ALEXANDER--looking for info on Jane ALEXANDER of Annapolis, who married Rev.Lucien B. Wright (from Ohio?) on September 25, 1834. He was minister at All Hallows Church in Anne Arundel Co. They moved to Selma AL sometime before 1839; then possibly returned to MD, before moving to Atlanta (Marietta)GA. They are both buried in the old Episcopal Cemetary in Marietta, GA Jane was supposedly sister to Thomas S. ALEXANDER, a lawyer in Annapolis or Baltimore, who married Priscilla Ghiselin in 1830 in Annapolis.

Looking for info on the Reverend Lucien Bonaparte Wright,

supposedly from Ohio. He was rector at All Hallows Church in

Anne Arundel County, MD and married Jane Alexander in 1834 in

Annapolis MD. He later moved to Selma AL, back to MD, before

moving to Marietta, GA, where he and his wife are buried in the

old Episcopal cemetary.

They had at least three children, Jane A. (Grubb)(1839-1915),

Rosa C.(Knapp) and Mary C. (Smith).

Looking for the parents of Jane, Thomas S. and John H. Alexander

of the Baltimore and Annapolis Maryland area--possibly originally

from the Snow Hill area of Maryland.

Jane married Rev. Lucien B. Wright in 1834; Thomas (a lawyer)

married Priscilla Ghiselin in 1830; no record of John H.'s

(a scholar)marriage.

Independent Order of Odd Fellows

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

The Independent Order of Odd Fellows (I.O.O.F.) is a fraternal organization derived from English Odd Fellows orders of the mid-1700s.

The Patriotic Order in England was followed by the Union of United Orders and the Loyal Order. In 1813, various lodges of the Union Order organized the Manchester Unity of Odd Fellows. Several unofficial lodges existed in New York City, but American Odd Fellowship is regarded as being founded in Baltimore in 1819, by Thomas Wildey, and the following year affiliated with the Manchester Unity. Within a few years the new American separated from the English Orders and formed the Independent Order of Odd Fellows.

Its ladies' auxiliary is known as the Rebekahs. Both the Odd Fellows and Rebakahs have higher branches known as Encampments and Patriarchs Militant.

Today, some branches of the order (ie: some countries) allow women to join the Odd Fellows itself, leading the Rebekahs to have declined in importance. The higher branches and their degrees is somewhere regarded as being of less importance, or too time-consuming, and are (in some countries) gradually being abandoned.

She was the author of the Barbereaux System of Music Teaching and of several books on education as related to the human voice, including a textbook, "Vocal Resonance, Its Source and Command."

Funeral services were held in the Chapman Funeral Home, Friday, August 7.

Died after May 1948 (signed one of her books to Samuel Parry Grubb and Jeanette Parry Grubb, dated May 1948)

Barbereux-Parry, M. Vocal Resonance. Boston: The

Christopher Publishing House, 1941

Glendale Brand Library 784.9 B

M. Barbereux-Parry, who was said to have made a

"magnificent contribution to the need of struggling

singers" by Clara Clemens Gabrilowitsch, the daughter of

Mark Train and he wife of Ossip Gabrilowitsch, world

famous conductor and pianist, has compiled this work for

singers and teachers as a result of having been a singer

herself and then having lost her voice completely, which

she explains in detail in the preface. Parry explains her

theories in no less than 46 chapters, which include

research from studying children’s natural singing voices.

Not only is the study of children’s natural voices unique to

vocal pedagogy books, but also unique is the study of

amplification, in which she describes the problems that

singers have adjusting their vocal projection to fit the size

and shape of the room.

Notes for Ellen Wilson:

from the Handy Annals

Mr Parry came to Athens about 1820, and upon the completion of the Bridge over the Chemung river in 1833, he was given the position of toll gatherer, which he held until 1859 (crossed out: sent to Dansville Insane Asylum in about 1859). Lot No 52 second division of old Athens was conveyed to him and Anna Jones by deed of 8 Oct 1830 by Mary H Welles 42a 168p now the Herrick plot. He also purchased of Clement Paine 4 ac at the corner of Elmira and Pain Street which he sold to Col C F Welles, and now known as the Parry plot. He for many years was Clement Paines's right hand man (crossed out: in his farming).

p. 432: Wm. Parry, the English joiner.

p. 485: Mr. Parry at first was "general factotum" for Clement Paine, having charge of his many properties and it may be said he was never abashed by the austerity of his employer. In 1833 he became keeper of the Chemung bridge, and all the reminiscences of "Commodore Parry" are in the bridge house, where he spent twenty-five years of his life.

"Wit was as natural with him as breathing, though it is as impossible to describe wit as to define the taste of old wine of the odor of flowers. If a good hearty laugh is better than medicine, then William Parry did his full share in a sanitary way for Athens. There was but one street in the town, and a joke by Parry, when started at his end of it, would be caught up and carried along to the other, until the entire street resounded with convulsive laughter." W.F.W.

p. 494: The only dwelling at date of incorporation seems to have been that of William Parry (now owned by Mrs. Michael Brown).

p 526: The bridge, when built, must have been a flimsy affair, as it went out in a flood in 1833 and was rebuilt in 1836. It was then a covered bridge, with wooden piers. Rufus Wright was the earliest toll keeper of who we have record. But the one best remembered after him was the genial Welshman, William Parry, who knew everybody passing, and their business.

He also stated that he was born in Anglesey, North Wales, was then age 24, had migrated from Wales and arrived in Philadelphia on May 12, 1818 (on the ship Meriden of Baltimore) and intended to settle in Philadelphia.

In 1822, there came to town some Welshmen, who were long actively connected with the making of Athens. William Parry was one and his friend and acquaintance, Thomas R. Davies, the other. Probably they came to Philadelphia with a party of Welsh people. At any rate, Mr. Parry married there in 1822. Jannet Jones, a wealthy Welsh girl of good family. One of her sisters settled also in Athens and it was not long before Mother Jones drove up from Philadelphia, and purchased a large plot of land for the daughters, covering the ground west of Main Street, now occuplied by the Universalist, Baptist and old Catholic Churches, later known as the Herrick plot.

In 1822 there came to town some Welshmen, who were long actively connected with the making of Athens. William Parry was one, and his friend and acquaintance, Thomas R. Davies, the other. Probably they came to Philadelphia with a party of Welsh people. At any rate Mr. Parry married there in 1822, Jannet Jones, a wealthy Welsh girl of good family. One of her sisters settled also in Athens, and it was not long before Mother Jones drove up from Philadelphia, and purchased a large plot of land for the daughters, covering the ground west of Main Street, now occupied by Universalist, Baptist and old Catholic Churches, later known as the Herrick plot.

William and Jannet Parry had five children: Ellen, Samuel, Mary, Margaret and Elizabeth. Samuel is stil living at Galesburg, Ill.; Ellen m. William Fury, resided elsewhere; Mary, one of the loveliest women Athens ever knew, m. an Englishman, Mark Thompson, and lived here or in vicinity; Margaret m. William Fritcher and lived and died here; Elizabeth m. Charles W. Clapp, and has been a lifelong resident of the borough. Mrs. Parry survived her husband many years. She was greatly beloved and esteemed as a noble Christian woman, full of loving sympathy and untiring care for all her friends and neighbors; self-sacrificing, generous and meek to an unusual extent. Her death was in 1871.

Notes for John Henry Alexander:

'well known as a scholar of rare attainments' from the Handy Annals

Abstract:John H. Alexander (1812-1867) had a varied career as a lawyer, civil engineer, surveyor, geologist, and teacher at the universities of Pennsylvania and Maryland. As Chief Engineer of Maryland, he surveyed the Baltimore and Susquehanna Railroad. He also conducted a coast survey for the federal government, and, as Maryland's first geologist, he mapped coal deposits in the state. Important subjects documented in the collection include the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, slack water navigation, canal legislation, surveys, contracts, railroads, Indian tribes, real estate, and Alexander's family life. The collection consists of reports, pamphlets, essays, and correspondence.

John Henry Alexander was born in Annapolis, Maryland in 1812, the youngest child of William and Mary (Harwood Stockett) Alexander. He attended St. John's College in Annapolis, graduating in 1827 when he was only fifteen. He spent the next four years reading law privately, but apparently he did not take the bar exam, choosing instead to begin working for the Baltimore and Susquehanna Railroad. Alexander also attended medical lectures in Baltimore, though he did not receive a degree in Medicine.

As part of his work for the railroad, Alexander performed surveys and made maps of the line. This experience, combined with his academic achievements, led to Alexander's 1833 appointment as the Chief Engineer of Maryland with a charge to create a complete map of Maryland. While carrying out his research for this task, Alexander mapped the richest coal deposits in the state. He joined with a friend, P.T. Tyson, Esq., to found the George Creek Iron and Coal Company. By the time Alexander resigned his position in 1837, the company's success had made him financially secure.

Alexander held a wide variety of professional appointments over his lifetime. He served as Chief Engineer of Maryland, geologist of Maryland, and in 1857 was appointed Commissioner to England to work on creating an international system of weights and measures. Alexander also was professor of civil engineering at the University of Pennsylvania and professor of physics at the University of Maryland.

He published a number of works including a treatise on international coinage of Great Britain and the United States (1857) and an opinion on the location of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad in Wheeling, Virginia (1850). He edited a treatise on leveling (1838) and Sims' treatise on mathematical instruments, used in surveying, and leveling, astronomy (1835). He was a fellow of the American Philosophical Society, and a member of the Geographical and Statistical Society and the Maryland and Pennsylvania Historical Societies. In 1847, he was elected an honorable member of the Belle Lettres Society at the College of St. James in Hagerstown, Maryland.

Alexander married Margaret Hammer on June 4, 1836, in Baltimore. They had at least two sons, the second one born in Baltimore in October 1838. Throughout his life Alexander maintained close ties with his older brothers, William (born circa 1803) and Thomas Stockett (born 1801.) The brothers shared a deep devotion to the Whig party, and William often sent Alexander detailed accounts of the actions of the House of Delegates in Annapolis.

Alexander was active in the congregation of St. Luke's Episcopal Church in Baltimore, and wrote a concordance to the Book of Common Prayer as well as two volumes of religious poetry.

John Henry Alexander died on March 2, 1867.

Little is known of his early life beyond the fact that his middle-class parents apprenticed him to a linen-draper at the age of fifteen. He was raised to speak English and Welsh, joined the Anglican Church, received a moderate education, and was expected to raise himself from draper's assistant to an independent, small shop owner or tradesman. Working in the same store with him was a young woman named Elizabeth Lanigan, described later as "a woman of good judgment and education and possessed [of] an eminently devout and benevolent spirit." They were married in 1808 and moved to London. Here they became Methodists. Not caring for the draper's business, Jones improved on his education and after learning some Greek, Latin, and Hebrew either opened a school or became a tutor. He later described himself as "an experienced teacher." This evidently did not provide sufficient income for his growing family. Returning to the draper's trade, he opened a small shop of his own near Ludgate Hill in London. His fourth child, Hannah, was born at 20 Ludgate Hill in 1816. The three other children were named Elizabeth, Samuel, and Ann. Later accounts speak of Evan Jones as having been a "merchant" for thirteen years in London, but evidently with little success. He seems to have had no head for business. Early in 1821 he decided to emigrate with his family to America and enter some other line of work.

"He probably had some relatives among the many Welsh emigrants living in or near Philadelphia, for the family settled in the Welsh community of Berwyn just west of the city. (In later correspondence Jones mentioned that his mother, Ann Jones, lived in Philadelphia; Evan Jones's son, John B. Jones, spoke of his "Uncle John" as living in the United States. But whether Evan Jones's mother and a brother preceded or followed him to the United States is not known.) Here he and his wife gave up Methodism and joined the Great Valley Baptist Church, led by the Reverend David Jones (perhaps a distant relative) and a young Welsh assistant pastor, Thomas Roberts. That summer the Baptist Foreign Mission Board advertised in its mission journal for volunteers to become missionaries among the Cherokee Indians who lived at the place where four states joined together: Georgia, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Alabama. Jones and his whole family volunteered."

75. Phebe Hyde, born 02 Apr 1748 in Canterbury, Windham Co, CT; died 05 Nov 1829 in Kirtland, OH.

Notes for Tracy Cleaveland:

Tracy Cleveland was born in Canterbury, Connecticut, in 1749, and died in Ohio, Feb. 27, 1836. Had he lived until May 8th he would have been eighty-eight years old. He is buried on the Harmon farm in Kirtland, Lake Co., Ohio.

In "Connecticut men in the Revolution" is the following service of Tracy Cleveland: "A private in Capt. Bacon's company, Sixth Battalion, Wadsworth's Brigade, Col. John Chester commanding the battalion in 1776."

"This Battalion was raised in June to reinforce Washington in New York; was stationed at Flat Bush Pass on Long Island, Aug 26; and engaged in the battle of the following day; narrowly escaped capture in retreat from New York, and engaged at White Plains, Oct. 28"

"Was in New Jersey at the time of the battle of Trenton."

For his services he received a pension under the Act of 1832.

His wife, Phebe, died Nov. 5, 1829, in her seventy-seventh year, and lies by his side.

In Mildred Steed's Soldiers and Widows of the American Revolution who lived in Lake County, Ohio, on page 47 we find a note on Tracy Cleveland who was born May 8, 1749 at Canturbury, Windham County, Connecticut, and died at Kirtland, February 27, 1836. His wife was Phebe Hyde, born April 2, 1748, and died November 5, 1829. "Both were buried on the Harmon Farm (later known as Hilo Farm) near Hart Road in Kirtland Hills and later removed to South Kirtland Cemetery, Section A., Lot 88, Grave 3." (This section has apparently been renamed Section D, as his grave marker is in the sixth row, 30th stone.)

Notes for Jeremiah Bedell:

Bedells were Loyalists (Tories). Jeremiah was Sargeant under Captain Hewlett, a Loyalist in 1780. Will probated 16 Mar 1789

Jeremiah Bedell was a farmer, for at least once he was described as "yeoman." He acted as "pender" or pounder of the town of Hempstead from 5 April 1748 until April 1776.

Jeremiah Bedell, Jur., entered his earmark on the town books of Hempstead 21 March 1746/7 as "a slit in ye off ear and a half penny ye fore side of each ear and a nick under ye off ear".

On 6 September 1759 on the same books, a record was made of a highway which had been laid out alongside the lot of Jeremiah Bedle, Jr.

An indenture, dated 23 December 1759, states that Peter Vergereau of New York City sold to Jeremiah, yeoman, of Queens County, for the sum of 45 pounds, a lot of 6 acres in Hempstead, which had been occupied by Vergereau's grandfather, father, and himself, in turn.

On 10 June 1761, certain inhabitants of Hempstead, having previously petitioned the authorities to run a new highway on the west side of Jeremiah Bedell, "Juner's lot" in Hempstead, across the plains to Richard Williams' land, a record was made on the books of the town that the said highway had been made as requested.

At a town meeting held early in April 1763, several persons asked that land on the east side of St. George's Churchyard and south of Jeremiah Bedell, "Junior's lot," be appropriated for new "publick" burying ground, the old one having become filled.

Jeremiah Bedle, Jun., protested against a decision of the townspeople of Hempstead, the first Tues. in Apr. 1767, to "stop" a lane on the east side of the burying ground.

A record by the commissioners for laying out highways, dated 10 Oct. 1767, mentions land of Jeremiah Bedel, Junior's, on the old road from Hempstead to the Westbury Meeting House, where the said road crossed the "Brook".

At a town meeting 27 Dec. 1774 it was noted that Jeremiah, Jr. and others were to take care of "our old church or town house".

Shortly before 1 May 1775 Jeremiah Bedell, Jr., must have suffered severe financial reverses for under that date on the town books the following record was made:

"I, Thomas Willett, High Sheriff of Queens County...was commanded, that of the goods and chattels of Jeremiah Beadle Juner...of Hempstead, I should cause to be made 320 pounds and 10 shillings which Benjamin Treadwell had recovered...sold to John Simonson of Hempstead...dwelling house in town spot near the Presbyterian Meeting House".

The record of Jeremiah Bedell during the troublesome years of the Revolution is a creditable one. Unfortunately, however, he unwisely chose to side with the loyalists. Unlike many of the inhabitants of Queens County, Long Island, who changed sides with the greatest of rapidity, Jeremiah served but one party and probably took up arms against a stronger force at least once. Furthermore, Jeremiah Bedell cannot be considered one of those "Tories" who acted with that side because they wished either to keep their sinecures or to prevent the rise of the "rabble" and the consequent dispossession of the wealthy from their estates.

Jeremiah held but a minor political position and surely must have been rather insecure financially at the time. As a member of the "yeoman" class in a "Tory" county, he had far more to gain by enlisting on the side of the patriots. Therefore, the compiler thinks it but just that Jeremiah be considered one who was a loyalist as a result of honest and praiseworthy convictions.

On 7 Nov. 1775 Jeremiah Bedel voted to send no deputies to the Provincial Congress, and on 19 Jan. 1776 his name is not found among those apologists who regretted their former stand.

He was captured at the same time as his kinsman, Joseph in Hempstead Swamp and is described as "A disaffected person" on Lt. Col. Crary's list of prisoners, dated 29 June 1776. He was probably one of those who gave surety to the authorities as no later mention of his case appears.

At a town meeting held 22 Dec. 1783 in Hempstead (the first under a new form of government) a Jeremiah Bedell was elected pender. This may refer to a son Jeremiah, as the election of a former "Tory" would hardly be very pleasing to the new authorities so soon after the cessation of hostilities.

The last will and testament of Jeremiah Bedell of South Hempstead was dated 2 June 1787 and probated 16 Mar. 1789, showing that his death must have occurred between these two dates. In this document he mentioned wife Mary, sons Richard, Jacob, and Jeremiah, dau. Mary, and grandsons, Adam and Jeremiah Bedell. The will was witnessed by Silvanus and a Phebe Bedell.

Children of Jeremiah Bedell and Mary Bell are:

108 i. Richard Bedell, born 10 Apr 1762 in Hempstead, Long Island, New York; died 20 Dec 1831; married Ruth (Unknown) Abt. 1788.

Notes for Ephraim Wilson:

West of Oriole, Somerset County, lies Geanquakin Creek. It empties into the north

side of the Manokin River between St. Peter's Creek on the east and Broad Creek

on the west. The land near the creek is marshy or forested, and uninhabited almost to

the Deal Island Road, a mile and a half north. But at one time there was a thriving

village there, which took its name from the creek.

Among the early landholders in the area where the village later developed was Peter

ELZEY (d. 1716), one of the first settlers of Somerset County, who acquired St.

Peter's Neck, between Geanquakin and St. Peter's Creeks, and Ephraim WILSON

(1664-1733), who later owned land at the head of Jeangaukin Neck.

He came to America and settled at a place called Mt. Ephraim and Mother's Care (now known by the name of Workington) situated on the south side of Back Creek, a branch of the Monokin River in Somerset Co, MD.

His commission as Sheriff of Somerset County was recorded 9 Aug 1693.

Notes for Samuel Handy:

Sailed on the 'Assurance de Lo' in July 1635

(5th Volume of the NE Genealogical Register) obtained from the Records of the Custom House in London, headed "Passengers for Virginia, July, 1635" Samuel Handy is among

these.

Family memory recorded by Isaac Handy indicated a frim belief that Samuel Handy was 15 at the time of his arrival, and indenture, and the Northampton Col court recores support this oral tradition. If he was 15 in 1666, he would have reached 24 in 1675

It appears that Samuel Handy moved from VA to MD in 1675 or 1676, at about the time his service was completed, and by law and custom he would have received a minimum of wordly goods--tools, clothing, provisions, and perhaps livestock to set up for himself at that time.

432. Jeremiah Bedell, born Abt. 1690 in Hempstead, Long Island, New York; died Abt. Oct 1773. He was the son of 864. Daniel Bedell and 865. Ann Powell.

Notes for Jeremiah Bedell:

Jeremiah Bedell was born probably before 1690 as he recorded his ear mark on the town books of Hempstead 9 May 1710 as "a slitt down the end of the right ear and a half penny on the upper side of each ear."

He probably married before 1720 (name unknown). She probably died before 20 September 1773, date of his will.

Jeremiah was doubtlessly a planter or farmer. He must have occupied a higher place in the social scale than most of his family, as he prefixed "Mr." to his name on various occasions. We may judge how rare this title was during Colonial days by the fact that only 4 men were given it in the Hempstead census of 1698, and while the number had grown somewhat by the time of Jeremiah's majority, only a small proportion of the population were so designated at any time during this period.

He was also called "Leftenant" as early as 7 April 1730, probably holding that commission in the local militia. his name also occurs on the list of vestrymen and wardens of St. George's Church, Hempstead, from 1728 to 1757 (p. 80, "The Annals of Hempstead, etc." by H. Onderdonk, Jr. - 1878).

Jeremiah Bedell held many local offices in Hempstead. He was a fence-viewer from 1718 until 1727, when he was elected "a survair of the highways," a fence-viewer again from 1729 until 1733, an assessor from 1731 to 1734, an "apprisor" of intestate estates from 1739 to 1742, a commissioner for laying out the highways 1740 and 1741, and assessor again from 1742 until 1751. In these notices he is called "Jeremy Bedell," "Mr. Jeremiah Bedell," "Leftenant Jeremiah Bedell," etc.

On 17 March 1724/5, Jeremiah Bedell witnessed the will of John Thomas of Hempstead. At a town meeting held in Hempstead 3 April 1738 Jeremiah Bedle and others were commissioned to inspect the town flock and to geld any coarse-wooled rams. On 1 April 1740 Jeremiah and Richard were elected to fence the town burial ground by the voters of Hempstead. At a town meeting 6 April 1742 Jeremiah Bedell and others were instructed to take steps to protect the town house from vandals.

He and several others were appointed 22 April 1745 to "discuss and decide what is to be done regarding the plains of Hempstead." The following 13 May the cogitators announced that a decision had been reached.

On 22 April 1745 Abram, Timothy, and Jeremi Bedel, Sen. and others entered a petition for a new highway near "East Meadow". In her will dated 3 August 1748, Phebe Tredwell left 10 pounds for the purpose of repairing the Presbyterian Meeting House and directed that the sum be placed in the hands of Jeremiah Bedell and John Hall. At a town meeting held in Hempstead 13 March 1749/50, it was voted that a "comety" be chosen to examine and correct the division, recently made, of the former common lands of the town. Jeremiah Beadle registered a protest with others. On 30 March 1752 Jeremiah Bedle was

among those who voted against dividing the plains of Hempstead. Jeremiah Bedel owned 2 slaves in 1755, 1 male and 1 female. In an indenture dated 17 April 1759, Capt. Benjamin Smith of Hempstead sold to his son, Samuel Smith, a parcel on the east side of Coes neck, bounded westerly by a highway leading to Jeremiah Beadle's land, and "southerly, by Jeremiah Beadle".

On 30 May 1768 Jeremiah and Silvanus Beadle petitioned the commissioners of highways in Hempstead to reopen a road from John Birdsall's to "James Seamans or Jerusalem," which had lately been blocked up.

Jeremiah Bedel had the following updated rights laid out to him:

17-1/2 acres in the "south woods ye west side of the road that leads from Hempstead to Linington's Old Mil" in the right of Mr. Tappen and 13 acres in the same area in the right of Stephen Hudson.

11-1/2 acres in the "South Woods"..."Near Bates his field" in the right of Stephen Hudson.

14-3/4 acres on the "west side of the road from town to Linington's old mil north of Derick Brewers house" in the right of Christopher Yeomans.

Jeremiah and Richard Bedel had a right of 11 acres laid out to them both in the "south woods on the east side of the road from Town to Johnson's mill ye east side of Bedels Swamp below fulling mill" in the right of Christopher Yeomans.

Jeremiah Bedell of Hempstead died sometime during the latter part of the year 1773, for his will was dated 20 September and probated 23 December of that same year. In it he described himself as being "weak." He mentioned his daughters, Hannah Bedell, Keziah Coombes, Mary Lester, wife of Benjamin Lester, granddaughter Catherine Willett, and grandsons Benajah Bedell and Timothy Bedell. Jeremiah named his "kinsmen" David Bedell and Sylvanus Bedell and his son-in-law, Benjamin Lester as exrs.

On 13 April 1774 Silvanus Bedell, "Esq.", Benjamin Lester, and David Bedel, as exrs. of the last will of Jeremiah, sold to Nehemiah Sammis for the sum of 330 pounds, the 20 acres in the "town spot" where Jeremiah Bedell had lived before his death, said land being bounded, northerly, by land of Silvanus Bedell, westerly by lands of said Silvanus and Isaac Bedell, and easterly, by a highway from St. George's Church, Hempstead, to John Batty's land. The next day Nehemiah Sammis sold the land just described to Silvanus Bedell, Esq. for the same sum.

Children of Jeremiah Bedell are:

216 i. Jeremiah Bedell, born Abt. 1721 in Hempstead, Long Island, New York; died 21 Jan 1788 in Hempstead, Long Island, New York; married Mary Baldwin Bell 26 Apr 1745 in St. George's Church, Hempstead, New York.

865. Ann Powell, died Abt. 1698 in Hempstead, Long Island, New York. She was the daughter of 1730. Thomas Powell and 1731. Priscilla Whitson.

Notes for Daniel Bedell:

Daniel Bedell was a farmer and evidently a fairly prosperous one, when we consider that he was able to present each of his and Ann's seven sons with a good-sized amount of land. He was illiterate like so many of the early colonists of Hempstead. He does not seem to have held any local office.

Public Record of Hempstead:

The name of Daniel Bedell first appears under the date of 30 Jan 1668 when he leased the grass on the east side of "Near Rockaway" for the coming summer for 12 shillings.

The second time his name occurs was 30 Jan 1669 when he and Joseph Petet were given leave to have a fence at the "Cover neck" by the townsmen of Hempstead.

At a town meeting held 1 Apr 1669, Daniel Bedell and Joseph Genens were given all the fence in the "east ox pastures."

On 25 Apr 1671 he leased the "parsonage meadow" at Mr. Denton's Neck" for 1 pound.

On the Hempstead town records are notices of several payments by Daniel Bedell for use of land belonging to the town, for 1671 through 1673.

At a town meeting at Hempstead 18 Apr 1673, Daniel Bedell and his brothers, John and Matthew leased some meadow land from the town.

Daniel Bedell was a witness in the case brought by John Junnins against Richard Totten at a court held by the constable and overseers of Hempstead 3 Feb 1674. The plaintiff alleged that he was "damnified to the valu of 5 pounds" because, as Daniel Bedell testified, the defendant had said that the plaintiff had stated "there was but three or four ownnist wimmin in the townd." The question of the accuracy of the plaintiff's alleged observation was not passed on by the court, unfortunately, but the latter simply found for the defendant.

At a court held 2 Jun 1675, Daniel Bedle entered an action of debt against that gentleman of the caustic wit, John Junnins, for a sow, value 23 shillings.

On 22 may 1676 George Huylett of Hempstead sold to Daniel Bedell real property which had once been owned by Capt. Thomas Toppin.

At a town meeting in Hempstead 25 Dec 1676, Daniel Bedell was granted a home-lot.

On 1 Jan 1676 Joseph Pettit sold his house in Hempstead and half of the lot connected with the house to Daniel Bedell.

At a town meeting 12 May 1680, Daniel Bedel was granted 3/4 of an acre.

Daniel Bedell brought an action of debt against his brother, Matthew on 7 Dec 1681 at a court. He proved to its satisfaction that the defendant was indebted to him for the "most part of 18 weeks dyat" valued at 2 pounds, 9 shillings, and 6 pence.

At a court 1 Mar 1681/2, Daniel Bedell sued Joseph Langdon for 2-1/2 shillings, which he claimed the defendant owed him for Daniel's killing and dressing a cow. Daniel lost the suit.

On 23 Feb 1682 William Jacoks of Hempstead sold a half lot to Daniel Bedle.

Daniel Bedell brought an action for damages he sustained as a result of a slanderous remark made by Henry Linnington, at a court held 6 Mar 1682/3. He alleged that one day at the defendant's mill, Linnington accused Daniel of stealing a swine. A witness testified that the plaintiff answered that he had "heard that he (Linnington) had often charged him but he (Daniel) could not prove it but now he could prove it." The disposition of the case does not appear.

On 11 Oct 1683, Daniel Beagle is listed as the owner of 9-1/2 acres of land, 4 oxen, 10 head of other cattle, 2 hogs, 12 sheep, and 2 horses.

At a town meeting 25 Jan 1686/7, it was voted that Daniel Bedle be allowed to keep the pasture he had evidently bought and paid for, but of which no record could be found.

On 20 Feb 1690/1 the owners of Cow Neck, Daniell Bedle being of this number, agreed to bestow 30 or 40 acres upon Thomas Barcar.

Samuel Tites of Hempstead on 18 Mar 1691/2 deeded some land to Thomas Marbin, which was bounded westerly by a meadow belonging to Daniell Bedle.

In the Hempstead census of 1698, Daniel Bedle's family consisted of his wife, "An," and their children, Thomas, An, David, Jeremiah, Richard, Joseph, Mary, and Abraham, who are listed in that order. Their son, Daniel Jr., was evidently at that time dwelling with the family of Robert (Bedell) Jr.

Under date of 15 July 1702 on the town books is a record of 50 acres in the "North Woods" which had been laid out to Daniel Bedell.

Richard Smith of Hempstead on 12 Mar 1702 sold a meadow in "Hungry Harbor," Hempstead, to Daniel Bedell, said meadow being bounded easterly by Daniel's present land, and under the same date a record of some land which had been laid out to Daniel Bedell some time previously in the woods on the north side of the "great plains," was made upon the town books.

On 9 June 1712 Daniel Bedele of Hempstead sold to his son, David, 1/2 of his 50 acre lot in the town.

On 15 Feb 1713/4 Daniel Bedell Sr., presented his sons, Richard and Abraham, with his homestead in the town and each 1/3 of said "meddo" and 50 acres of wood land in the "south Woods," where Daniel Jr. was then dwelling, and all the elder's "hollows on plains."

The same day Daniel gave to his sons, Thomas and David, half the meadow and land at "Hungry Harbor," and to his remaining sons, Jeremiah and Joseph, 147 acres at "Shearman's neck," on the east side of Rockaway River, and half of the meadow at Hungry Harbor.

No later notice of Daniel Bedell, Sr. has been found by the writer. He probably died within a short space after executing the deeds just described, which must have disposed of all his holdings.

Daniel Bedell and his wife, Ann (Powell) Bedell, had at least 7 sons and 2 daughters. The order of birth of the children, with the exception of Daniel, Jr., cannot be ascertained definitely. The writer is inclined to think the order in which they appear in the census of 1698 is wrong, because, for example, Joseph is listed as the seventh child, and as shall be seen later, a son of this Joseph was a registered cattle-owner in 1722, which would place Joseph's birth nearer to that of the eldest child, Daniel Jr., who was born 18 September 1680. Further, their appearances on the public records as probable adults bears little or no relationship to the order in which they appear in the census. The writer has adopted the following order for the sons on the basis of their registrations of cattle marks and the census of 1698, with the exceptions noted; the daughters taking places as in the census:

Children of Daniel Bedell and Ann Powell are:

i. Daniel Bedell, born Abt. 1680; died Unknown.

ii. Joseph Bedell, born Abt. 1681; died Unknown.

iii. Thomas Bedell, born Abt. 1682 in Hempstead, Long Island, New York; died Abt. 1750.

Notes for Thomas Bedell:

iv. Ann Bedell, born Abt. 1684; died Unknown.

432 v. Jeremiah Bedell, born Abt. 1690 in Hempstead, Long Island, New York; died Abt. Oct 1773.

vi. David Bedell, born Abt. 1691; died Unknown.

vii. Richard Bedell, born Abt. 1694; died Abt. 1761.

Notes for Richard Bedell:

Richard Bedell was probably born before 1694 for on 4 May 1714, he entered his cattle mark on the Hempstead records as "a half penny ye fore side of each ear and a slit on ye end of ye left ear". He married Phebe (maiden name unknown) possibly before 1720. She was living as late as 13 may 1761, date of his will.

Richard was probably a farmer. He held local offices continuously from 5 April 1737 until April 1758, with the exception of the year 1739. He served as surveyor of highways for 1737, 1740 through 1745, overseer of highways in 1738, and appraiser of interstate estates from 1742 through 1757.

Richard was a private in Capt. Jacob Hickes' Queens County Company of Militia in 1738.

On 8 June 1754 a plea was made for a highway be certain inhabitants of Hempstead, which was to be run near Richard Bedle's fence, from the Presbyterian Meeting House.

The following undated patents were laid out to Richard:

14-3/4 acres "north of Jeremiah Bedel...on the same side of the road" in the patent right of Christopher Yeomans.

29 acres near "his house...southward of Hempstead town" in the right of Mr. Tappen.

Richard Bedell must have died between 13 May 1761 and 25 April 1762, the dates of his will and probate. In this testament he stated that he was of Hempstead, mentioned wife, Phebe, son Isaac, Isaac's daughter Elizabeth Green, son Silvanus, daughter Mary Carman and her children Samuel, Stephen, Mary, Anne and Richard Carman, his granddaughter Mary Pearsall, then wife of Nathaniel Ross, and testator's son-in-law, Carman Rushmore. The will was witnessed by a Mary Bedell and others.

Notes for Edward S. Cannon:

CANNON: In his privately printed book, Wainwright and Related Families, Emerson

B. Roberts gives the following information about Edward CANNON: b cir 1600 in Yorkshire,

England, Edward married Ann ____ about 1635. Edward and his family came to Virginia in 1646,

being transported by Edward HALL of Lower Norfolk County. Both of their children ended up

crossing the Bay to Somerset County, Maryland when they were grown. Their children were:

1.Ann CANNON, b 1639 in Yorkshire, m James DASHIELL, Sr. about 1659 in

Northumberland County, Virginia. Ann d between 1697 and 1705 at Wetipquin in Somerset County. James and Ann DASHIELL are the progenitors of the illustrious Dashiell family in America.

2.Stephen CANNON, b cir 1640, m Judith BLOYCE in 1671 in Somerset County,

Maryland, d between 1699 and 1709. Interesting circumstances surround the removal of

Stephen CANNON to Maryland from Virginia. It seems that he was a servant to a Mr.

John PATE of Gloucester County, VA. He ran away and changed his name to Thomas

DAVIS. In early Somerset County records, he is known as "Thomas Davis, Carpenter". It

was as Thomas Davis that he married Judith BLOYCE, and his children were surnamed

DAVIS until 1674, when he publicly declared his true name.

1408. Daniel Scofield, born Bet. 1595 - 1616 in Rochdale, Lancashire, England; died Bef. Mar 1669/70 in Stamford, Fairfield Co., CT. He was the son of 2816. Alexander Scofield. He married 1409. Mary (Sara) Youngs²⁹⁷.

1409. Mary (Sara) Youngs, born 1624 in Southhold, Suffolk, England; died 05 Mar 1697/98 in Milford, CT²⁹⁸. She was the daughter of 2818. Rev. John Youngs and 2819. Joan Herrington.

Notes for Daniel Scofield:

Daniel was the grandson of Sir Cuthbert Scofield of Scofield Manor, Richdale, Lancashire, England. He came from England in 1639 on the "Susan & Ellen" to Ipswhich MA. He made his way to Wethersfield, CT, thence to Stamford, CT where he was 41th on the list of landowners there. He received 2 acres of land in home lot and 3 acres of woods in the first company of Stamford on Dec 7, 1641.

After Daniel died in 1670/71, his widow became the third wife of Miles Merwin.

Daniel Scofield received Dec 7, 1641 ten acres of land in home lot and woodland in first company of Stamford, CT. His will dated Sept 4, 1664 gave to his wife one third of the estate with use of home for life; to his dughter,Sarah 5 pounds, and to her two children 5 pounds each; to the other four children the rest of the estate. His wife and sons Daniel 2 and John, Executors..from Huntington's Stamford Registry and History.

A LOT OF Scofield INFO CAME FROM RAYMAN MESERVY'S

WEB PAGE--http;//rmeservy.byu.edu

--the following from the FamilyTreeMaker web page of David W. Brown-----

Notes for *Daniel Scofield:

Daniel's means and date of arrival in N. E. has not been established. He did not arrive with his brother Richard on the "Susan & Ellin" in 1635. It is assumed that he was in Mass. Bay Colony before moving to Wethersfield, Conn, where he lived for about 3 years. He then became one of the founders of Stamford, where he was alloted a home lot of two acres and three of woodland by a town meeting, 12-7-1641. He soon acquired more property, for on 3-2-1650, "Ye lands of Danill Scofield" included the above and 20 acres more. Neighboring property was held by Jeffery Ferris, John Waterbury, and Jonas Weed. Several other land transactions involving Daniel appear in the Stamford Town Records, right up to his death, and even after, retroactively. No record has been found of Daniel becoming a Freeman, but he must have joined the church, for he was elected Stamford's first marshall in 1657. To hold town office at the time, one had to be a church member.

As marshall, Daniel took a posse of prominent men from Stamford to arrest Thomas Marshall for insulting and offending the majesty of the government. They located Marshall at the home of Richard Crabb and his wife in the western part of town, now known as Greenwich. Crabb was also wanted for causing disturbances. These people were Quakers, who were forbidden "to abide in this jurisdiction" Daniel's will dated 9-4-69 at Stamford, witnessed by George Slawson and John Holly and inventory taken 2-10-1670 by Holly and Francis Bell. Attested by widow and sons Daniel and John, 3-7-1670. Valued at 355 pounds, it mentions wife, daughter Sarah, her 2 minor children, and his other 4 children, Daniel, John, Joseph and Mercy.

******Migration of Settlers: Boston Area to Fairfield, Conn.******

Many of the early settlers to New England came in search of freedom, especially Religious

Freedom, in addition to their own land to feed their families. The largest point of entry of the day was Watertown, and what became the Boston area of Massachusetts. Those who settled in adjacent towns like Newtown, Watertown and Dorchester found that they had very little freedom there, as this area was controlled by a few very rigid Puritans, who had organized a theocratic and completely undemocratic form of Government. Rules and regulations regarding personal conduct were unbelievably strict. Many, including very respectable law abiding citizens were punished harshly for trivial offences, often fined and/or put in stocks. Those who came across the Ocean for the sake of freedom were not about to submit to such a situation. Glowing statements were coming to Boston concerning the fertile meadows and rich valley land along the Connecticut River, so a large number of families migrated there. Many of these settled in Wethersfield, but found themselves disappointed there too, as there was no peace to be found. Several strong minded ministers were all trying to rule the settlement at once, leading to infinite quarrels and disputes over religion, politics, and the distribution of land. Because of these unsatisfactory conditions in Wethersfield, many chose to move on to Fairfield, often negotiating with Indians for land.

public service to the town were not as substantial as that of brother Daniel,

he also served on numerous committees and performed other functions in

Stamford. An inventory of his estate was made 4-20-1699 by townsmen

David Waterbury, Daniel Scofield, and John Betts. Net Value was 461

1728. Robert Bedell, born Bef. 01 Sep 1624 in Wales, England; died Abt. 1698 in Hempstead, Long Island, New York. He was the son of 3456. John Beadle and 3457. Elizabeth (Unknown). He married 1729. Blanche (Unknown) Abt. 1640.

1729. Blanche (Unknown), died Unknown.

Notes for Robert Bedell:

Robert was an inhabitant of Hempstead, Long Island, New York, as early as 17 Mar 1657.

Robert was one of the few men chosen by the town of Hempstead for townsmen on 17 Mar 1657.

Previous history of this ancestor was unknown to the author, although the book states that he was probably born in England, probably before 1620 as the birth date of his son Matthew, who was not his eldest child can be placed about 1645. The writer presumes that Robert married before 1644, probably to the Blanch(e) Bedell (maiden name unknown) whom he called wife shortly after 11 Dec 1667.

Robert Bedell was a farmer and also, at least twice, acted as cowkeeper for the town of Hempstead. He does not appear to have held any local office other than townsman, mentioned at the beginning of the article.

Robert's death occurred sometime between the date of the Hempstead census of Aug 1698 and 20 Mar 1701/2, when an inventory was taken of his estate, as he had died intestate.

Robert appears several times in the public records of Hempstead:

In 1657 "Robord Beedell" owned 8 head of cattle at least, and 6 "gats...at the neck" Probably during that same year he was granted 16 acres of land by the town and on 29 Nov 1658 he "concluded" to take up more land. Among the "cowes" kept by Spragg in 1658 were 5 which belonged to Robert. On 8 Mar 1659, the townsmen of Hempstead "made a rate for the levy of the public charge for the year 1658." Robert's share was 28 shillings.

The townsmen of Hempstead made an agreement with Robert "Beedle" on 25 Mar 1659 to the "effect that he take charge of ye west herd of cowes belonging to the town from May 1 on." The inhabitants were to send out their cows when Robert blew his horn and then he was to take the herd to pasture when the sun was "a half hour above the horizon" and to return them a half-hour before sunset." He or his eldest son was to consider this his sole employment. His salary was 14 shillings per week. He was replaced by Walter Wall on 13 Apr 1660.

On the last day of Feb 1660 at a general town meeting the home-lot belonging to the town of Hempstead was leased to Robert for 20 shillings.

George Mills of Rusdorp sold his house, barn and home-lot in Hempstead and another adjoining it to Robert Bedell on 13 Dec 1661, and the remainder of his land to Thomas Ellison.

Among the calves which were to be kept in the "north woods" in "the height of fly time" were 6 of Robert's.

On 9 Feb 1663 he leased the home-lot belonging to the town house for 14 shillings. On 14 Jun 1665 Robert recorded the ownership of a mare marked with a half penny under each ear and on 13 Sep of the

same year he sold a cow, marked in the same way, to Mr. Ogdin Broun. This cattle mark, was with slight additions such as a slit in the off ear, etc., used by his descendants for over a century.

Robert Bedell and William Thickstun each sold a cow to Arynn Lambartsun of "the flatbush" on 23 Jun 1666. During the year of 1667 Robert sold two cows and a mare, purchasers unknown. The records of the house and land which Robert Beddell bought of Steaven Hudson, and the home-lot and house, formerly

Hope Washburne's, which he purchased from George Hewlett and William Osborne, are to be found on the town books of Hempstead under date of 11 Dec 1667.

"Robert Beadle doth frely acknowledge that his wife Blanch Beadle shall have use and improvement of the house and land in this bill of sale (probably that one formerly belonging to Washburne) her whole life time in case her husband die before her." He signed by making his mark, as usual. The writer has been unable to find, indeed, any document to which Robert's autograph is attached.

Robert was witness to a deed of Thomas Iarland's dated 31 Mar 1668.

On 11 Jan 1668 Robert was in Mr. Seaman's company to draw lots for land for planting. At a town meeting 30 Jan 1668, he leased the "home lot" of the town for 16 shillings. On 3 Jun 1669 it was agreed that Goodman Bedle was to keep the east herd of cattle belonging to the town for 14 shillings per week, and on the following 19 Mar he began his "coucekeeping". Sometime during 1669 Robert recorded his ownership of a lot at the "half neck," containing 4 acres and 69-1/2 rods, on the town books.

Robert bought the old town barn for 3 pounds on 22 Jun 1670 and the town house for 9 pounds 25 Apr 1671. On 30 Jun 1671 Robert deeded a tract on "Cowes great neck," south of the town of Hempstead, to his obedient and loving sons, Daniel and John husbandmen. Blanch Bedell signed the release too, making her mark.

On the same date, Robert Beedel of Hempstead, husbandman, sold to his son, Daniel, 3 acres and 1 sq. rd. of land in the southern part of the town, formerly the property of Stephen Hudson and 4 acres in the "Half neck," north of land belonging to John Smith, Rock, Jr.

In the Hempstead census of 1673 appear the names of the following members of the Bedell family: Robert, Daniel, Matthew, and John.

At a town meeting in Hempstead 8 Mar 1674, the same four men whose names appear in the preceding paragraph leased some land from the town.

At a court held by the constable and overseers of Hempstead 7 Apr 1675, Henry Boman alleged that Robert Bedell owed him for cow keeping. The disposition of the case does not appear.

On 5 May 1675, at a similar court, Thomas Ellison brought suit against Robert Bedell. The plaintiff claimed that he had kept a company of "Mat" Bedell's cattle for three or four days and that he should have been paid 3 shillings a day for his service.

Robert Bedell was named as defendant because, Ellison alleged, Robert had promised to pay the charge if Matthew did not, and that neither had done so. The court found for the plaintiff.

At a court held 2 June 1675, John Junnins entered an action of debt against Matthew Bedell for a new cart and wheels, value 3 pounds. Robert Bedell appeared as a witness for his "soone" Matthew, and stated that the plaintiff was to have "pined and earebred" and which he had not done. The court ordered the work to be finished and then the plaintiff was to be paid.

At a court on 6 July 1675, Robert Jackson entered an action of the case against John Junnins, a settler with whom the Bedells had several legal quarrels. Robert, Matthew, John, and "Betty" testified for the plaintiff, no doubt gladly, but were unable to cause the defendant much discomfort as the case was thrown out of court.

At a town meeting 9 Apr 1677 the proprietors of Hempstead were empowered to take up 100 acres of woodland apiece. Robert Bedell was among this number, as was also Daniel; the latter, however, was granted but a half-share.

On 20 Jun 1679 at a town meeting Robert Bedell was given 50 acres and Daniel 25 acres, as proprietors of Hempstead.

On 1 Sep 1681 "Robert Bedle, Senr, of Hempstead" conveyed to his son, Robert the elder's "now dwelling house witt home lott and orchard and all housing, barns," etc. Robert, Jr., was not to take possession until his father's decease, and he was to allow his mother, Blanch, to dwell there during her lifetime, should her husband predecease her, and she was to have use of the orchard whenever she wished.

"Robert Bedell, the elder, husbandman," deeded to his son-in-law, "Charls Abrams," a hollow on Hempstead Plain on 26

Nov 1681.

On 24 May 1682 the inhabitants of Hempstead agreed to maintain Jeremy Hubbard, as minister. The Bedells were to contribute as follows toward the expense, yearly: Robert, Sr 1 pound, Daniel 1 pound, John 10 shillings, Matthew 5 shillings, and Robert Jr. 5 shillings, the contributions to be made in corn or cattle.

Robert Bedell, Sr., sold to Richard Minthorne 5 Jan 1682 all his right in the east "ox pasture," consisting of 4 "ox gattes".

An Account of ye vallvation of the Estates of thee inhabbitants of ye towne of Hampsted on Long Island" on 11 Oct 1683:

"Robert Beagle, Senior" 3 cows and 3 sheep. At this time he evidently possessed no farm land, having transferred all to his sons and others. The sons owned 35-1/2 acres of "land and meadows."

Thomas Ellison of Hempstead conveyed to John Tredwell a meadow lot on the west side of "cose Neck" on 16 Nov 1683; said meadow being "bounded on the south end by a whit oak tree next ye woods adjoining to goodman Begles fence". This notice probably refers to Robert, Sr.

By a vote of the town Simon Garman was given about 1-1/2 acres south of Jeremiah Wood's and "near his father bedle" on 22 Jun 1684 or 1685. Simon Garman (Jarman, Jerman, etc.) was most likely a son-in-law of Robert, Sr.

On 14 Apr 1685 Thomas Higam of Hempstead sold to Robart Bedle his "now dwelling house and home lott" consisting of about 3 acres and located east of Daniel Bedle's 50-acre lot. The writer is not certain to which of the Robert Bedells this notice refers. The "Vallvation" list mentioned above of date 11 Oct 1683 seems to indicate the Robert, the elder, had transferred all of this holding, with the possible exception of a "house lot" or two, to others, and was probably no longer actively engaged in

business, and therefore, should have no use for the three-acre lot. However, Robert, Sr., might have decided to move, or perhaps, wished to make an investment.

In a deed dated 16 Jul 1685, Charles Abrahams of Hempstead and his wife conveyed to Josias Starr a hollow, which had been given to Abrahams by his father-in-law "Robart Bedall" situated on Hempstead Plains, the hollow being about 1-1/2 miles north of the town. This conveyance was signed by Charles and "Serah" Abrahams by making their marks. The document was witnessed by "Robart Bedle" and "John Bedall" the latter signing his own name and thereby gaining for himself an enviable distinction of being the first member of the family ever to do so on any public record.

A deed of John Ellison's of 23 Feb 1686/7 contains a notice of a lot which had been sold by his father, "Laranc Ellison," to Robard Bedle, Sener.

Robert Bedel, Sener., deeded certain real property in Hempstead to Elias Doughty 1 Mar 1686.

On 7 Apr 1686 Robert Bedele, Sener, made a gift to his son John of the house and lot where the latter was then dwelling, aid property being east of Daniel's land and west of the donor's.

Robert, Sr., Daniel, and John Bedell were among the proprietors of Hempstead to whom John Stuard addressed his petition for a grant of 18 or 20 acres, dated 16 Feb 1691/2. Stuard stated that he intended to pursue the trades of "coper" and surgeon, and so impressed the townsmen by his versatility that his request was granted.

Richard Cornell of Hempstead in his will dated 7 Nov 1693 mentioned land in the "fresh cove" in which a meadow of Robert Bedell had been laid out. This may refer to Robert Jr.

On 3 Apr 1697, Robert Beedel, Sener, planter, conveyed to his son Robert 1/4 of the meadow on Coes Neck, bounded, westerly by Hicks Neck Creek, northerly by Thomas Ellison's land, and easterly by land of John Smith, Rock.

In the census of 1698 for Hempstead, Robert Bedle's name occurs immediately before that of his son John, with whom he may have been living at the time.

On 15 May 1699, Daniel Bedle caused an entry to be made on the town books concerning 24 acres of his "on ye south part of ye town...bounded north by ye lot of Robert Bedle" (Which one?).

Among the "nams of those yet paid to ye pattin with ye number of aceres" appear John 4-1/2 shillings, Daniel 1 pound and 3 shillings, Robard (Jr.?) 3-1/2 pence, Robard (Sr.?) 3 pence. Undated.

As mentioned earlier, Robert Bedell, the founder of the Long Island family, died intestate, and an inventory was taken of his estate 20 mar 1701/2 and on 28 May following, his eldest son Daniel was appointed administrator.

Robert Bedell's family consisted of four sons and probably three daughters. His wife, Blanch, may have been mother of all of the children but there is proof of maternity in the case of Robert, Jr. only.

The order of the children's births is unknown to the compiler; Daniel, however, was the eldest son. Their places in the arrangement is based on their first appearances on the records as probably adults. There may have been other children but the writer is reasonably certain that no other sons reached maturity.

Children of Robert Bedell and Blanche (Unknown) are:

864 i. Daniel Bedell, born Abt. 1644; died 15 Feb 1712/13 in Hempstead, Long Island, New York; married Ann Powell 22 Nov 1679.

ii. Elizabeth Bedell, died Unknown.

iii. Mary Bedell, died Unknown.

iv. Sarah Bedell, died Unknown.

v. Jr. Robert Bedell, born Abt. 1643; died Unknown.

vi. Matthew Bedell, born Abt. 1645; died Unknown.

vii. John Bedell, born Abt. 1646; died Unknown.

Notes for John Bedell:

The earliest notice of John Bedell occurs in the will of John James, probably nearly schoolmaster of Hempstead, dated 13 March 1660, in which the testator left John Bedell his blackcloth breeches and doublet and 40 shillings which John's father owed him, "to keep him to school." (Wills of the Smith families of N.Y. and L.I. 1664-1794," by W. S. Pelletreau, New York, 1898, p 199.)

As noted under Robert, on 30 June 1671 John Bedell and his brother, Daniel, were deeded a tract on "Cowes great neck" by their father, and were described as "husbandmen." This deed and the words of his last will, in which he calls himself "aged," seems to places John's birth abt the middle of the century or slightly before.

Sometime before 7 Oct 1690, John Bedell married Sara Southward or Southard, for on that date he gave a receipt to Thomas and John Southard for 20 pounds, Sarah (Southard) Bedell's part of "ye estate of our father deceased."

According to page 68 of a typewritten booklet in the Main Branch of the N.Y. Public Library, entitled "Records in the Office of the County Clerk at Jamaica, N.Y." by W. D. A. Eardeley (1918), Sarah (Southard) Bedell was daughter of Thomas and Annica (Jansen) Southhard and granddaughter of Anthony and Grielje Jansen. She was living as late as 26 February 1715/6, date of John Bedell's will, to be noted later.

The following notices relative to John Bedell are to be found on the town books of Hempstead and elsewhere:

At a court held by the constable and overseers of Hempstead 3 March 1674, John Bedle entered an action of debt against William Wieare for a "bridill." The disposition of the case does not appear.

On 4 April 1677 John Bedell sued Timothy Halstead and Samuel Denton for the value of 2 loads of hay which the defendants had burned accidentally, and for which he recovered.

At a town meeting 5 August 1678 John Bedel was granted a 3 acre home-lot.

According to the evaluation of the estates of the inhabitants of Hempstead 11 October 1683, John Beedle owned 3 acres of land and meadows, 4 oxen, 2 cowes, 6 head of other cattle, and 1 horse.

Sometime during 1684 John Bedle bought a heifer marked "with a crop of the near ear and a half penny under the off ear."

On 22 December 1684 he registered his ear mark which was a "a half penni of ye under side of ye near ear and a half penni of ye upper side of ye off ear."

On 17 April 1688 Thomas Irland of Hempstead sold to Joseph of the same town a 3 acre home-lot in the "south est part of town," bound northerly by John Bedle's land.

The names of John Bedle, wife, Sarah, and 5 of their children, John, Jr., Samuel, Jacob, Benjamin, and Martha are to be found on the Hempstead census for 1698.

John Bedele witnessed a deed dated 9 November 1600, executed by Thomas Jecocks to David Jecocks.

On 26 December 1709, John Bedell conveyed to his son, Samuel 25 acres of land in the "South Woods of Hempstead."

David Bedell was a witness (p. 465, Liber B, No 2 of Deeds, Register's Office, Queens Co., N.Y.).

Roberd Williams was authorized by the town of Hempstead on 5 February 1710/11 to lay out a highway between his lot, which was located south of "the parsonage and town lots," and John Beadle's lot.

In his last will, dated 26 February 1715/6 and prob. 3 April 1716 John Bedell, Sr., of Hempstead, described himself as "yeoman" and "aged." He mentioned wife, Sarah, and children, John, Samuel, Jacob, Benjamin, Martha, Elizabeth and Phebe, the three daughters being surnamed Bedell. Job Bedell witnessed the document making his mark (p. 73, Liber B of Wills, Register's Office, Queens Co., N.Y.).

The order of birth of the first 5 children is taken from the census of 1698. Elizabeth and Phebe Bedell were probably born between that date and the date of John's will.

1730. Thomas Powell, died Unknown. He married 1731. Priscilla Whitson.

1731. Priscilla Whitson, died Unknown.

Child of Thomas Powell and Priscilla Whitson is:

865 i. Ann Powell, died Abt. 1698 in Hempstead, Long Island, New York; married Daniel Bedell 22 Nov 1679.
