EMBRA CING OVER FIVE HUNDRED HEADS OF FAMILIES, EXTENDING INTO THE TENTH GENERATION. 7 '*;:./.. 'V- -'* . By F. K. UPHAM. i^JIiii^ LIBRARY JOEL MUNSELL S SONS, PUBLISHERS. 1892. «■:■ :* * ^ ^ 1 ■ • - ' i 1 THE NAME IN ENGLAND. ' .*■ f: Very little of value has yet been !earned concerning this in- teresting matter, though it is believed there is considerable which might be. Dr. Upham — in the " Notices " — said : " During a brief sojourn in England, in 1844, 1 became satisfied that, with sufficient leisure for the purpose, much information might be obtained in relation to this point, especially by examining the documents deposited in the Prerogative Office. But an ab- sence of nearly two years on the continent rendered it necessary for me to curtail my visit to that country, and thus prevented me from instituting the requisite inquiries." The following notes in this connection are, however, contained in the pages of this book: "There is a period, comparatively late in hisiory, previous to which it would be futile to seek for the origin of the surnames of Saxon or Norman families. Du Chesne observes, that * surnames were unknown in France before 987, when the lords began to assume the names of their demesnes. ' Camden relates, ' that they were first taken up in England a little before the Norman conquest, under King Edward the Confessor' (1060); but, he adds, ' they were never fully established among the com- mon people till the time of Edward II.* (1307 to 1377). " The first mention of Upham as a surname, which I have found, occurs early m this period. It is met with in a deed of lands to the church of Saint Maria de Bradenstock, which, according to Cam- den, was a small monastery in Wilts, founded by Walter, son of Edmond of Salisbury; and we are informed by the Index, that Bradenstock is in the hundred of Kinwarston, lat. 51° 23' ; long. I " 39' W. It is recorded in the Rotuli Chartarum, in Turr. Lond., vol. I, part I, fol. 170, An. 9, John, 1208. 'The Charter Rolls t Upham Genealooy. are the contemporaneous regi^fcis of royal grants of lands, honon, dignities, hereditary offices, liberties, and other estates of inherit- ance to the nobility and commonalty, and of lands, liberties, privi- leges, immunities, and other estates in mortmain to ecclesiastical, eleemosynary and lay corporations.' This reads as follows: ' ex d. Hug/ de Uphft ij acr' tre' I campis de Uphft.' (The mark — when used by the abbreviators of these chronicles, always indicates the omission of an m or n.) This document bea'-s the date of 1208. The perusal of the sentence, by gift of Hugo de Upham ij acres of land in the campis de Upham (the Upham fields, or estate), impresses us with a distinct idea that the name and family of the grantor were of some antiquity, and justify the supposition that Hugo, or his father, might have held the lands Upham, and have borne the surname de Upham, for at least sixty or seventy years — the common life-time of man. In this case the surname is shown to have existed within about eighty years of the extreme date assigned by Camden as the period when the English nobles began gradually to assume family names, from their estates; at the same time it is shown to exist on record near two hundred years before the time these names became common. The conclusions, from these facts, in relation to Hugo de Upham and his family, are too evident to be noticed. " Forty or fifty years subsequent to the date of this entry on the charter rolls, we find from the Hundred Rolls, Temp. Henry HI. and Edward I., vol. a, p. 240 (these rolls contain inquisitions taken in pursuance to a special commission, issued under the Great Seal. This inquisition was taken by jurors chosen from each hundred, and consisted of returns made under oath of all the demesne lands of the crown, manors of the same, wardships, marriages, escheats, etc.), that another person, holding the office of juror in Selkley Hundred, bore this surname : * Hundr* de Selkel' Nich' de Upham jur' Com' Wyltes, Ano. 39, Hen. III.,' [1255]. Soon afterward we find in the Fine Rolls (in Turr. Londenensis asservatis Henrico Tertio Rege., vol. 2, pp. 375-1246- 1372. Memb. 9. Henry III., A. D. 1262, commenced in the sixth year of King John, 1204, and finished under Edward IV., 1483. t' Upham Gcnkalooy. The rolls comprise a great variety of matter relating to deaths, succession of heirs, descent, division of property, custody of lands, and heirs during minority, liveries, marriages of heiresses and widows, assignments of dower, for forfeitures and pardons, aids and tallages, affairs of Jews, etc.), notice of several persons who bore the same name : ' Wilts. Hugo de Doveral, t, Letitia ux. ej. Alio. de. Upham. Joh'a, t, Agnes fil. Hug. de Upham dSt dimid. marc. p. una as. Cap. coram, m. de Littlebir,' (that is, Hugo de Doveral — et Letitia uxor ejus, Alicia de Upham, Johanna, et Agnesia, filise Hugonis de Upham, dant dimidum marc, por una assisa. capta coram. M. de Littlebir Wilts). The date this entry bears is 1263. Before leaving this part of our subject, we may remark that as Hugo de Upham, of Kinwarston Hundred, Hugo, the father of Joanna and Alice, and Nicholas, the juror of Selkley, were all of the same county (Wilts); and that Kinw > jton and Selkley Hundreds were contiguous, it is highly probable that all these persons were nearly related. The name still exists in Selk- ley Hundred as a local name (viz. the tithings of Upper and Lower Upham), in the parish of Aldbourne. " We have shown, then, by the evidence of the records, that Upham was a surname already in 1208; and we have expressed the opinion that the same record would, by implication, refer this use of the word to a period prior at least to 1140. The latter date brings us very near to the time when the surname, if of Saxon origin, must have been first assumed. Arrived at this point, the mind naturally seeks for the reasons that induced the bearer to take this particular name as a family designation. In general, at the period when family names first began to be used, they were derived either from the profession, or some personal peculiarities of the individuals bearing them, or from his place of residence, or landed, estates. In the latter case it was invariably indicated by the use of either the Latin or English particles de, or of, as Philip de Bourbon, John of Lancaster, etc. We shall en- deavor to show that the latter was the fact with regard to the sur- name Upham ; that it was first given to the family of that name, because they were possessors of land, so called* 3 lO i, Upham Genealogy. " Hugo, the first of this name of whom I have found any notice, is designated Hugo de Upham, Hugo of Upham. Now the ' de * not only indicates that he derived his name from his estate, but the lands belonging to him are expressly referred to in the same document, as beariqg the name Upham : ' Campis de Upham ' (Upham fields). We conclude, then, that Hugo, and his ances- tors holding possession of and residing on the lands known by the name Upham, received the names of Hugo, etc., de Upham. This is also confirmed by the fact, that Upham, as the name of a place, occurs in records previous to the introduction of surnames. " We have then, in a more or less satisfactory manner, indicated the time and cause of the assumption of this surname. We shall now merely allude to the fact that the ' de ' was omitted at an early period, and the name received its present form. This change took place previous to 1445, as appears from its form in the following extract from the inquisitions, ' ad quod Damnum.' (Calendarum Rotularum Chartarum et inquisitionum ad quod Damnum, A. 19-23, Henry VI., No. 93, p. 385. The inquisitions ad quod Damnum were commenced in the first year of the reign of Edward IL, 1307, and ended in the 3811^ of Henry VI., 1460. They were taken by virtue of writs directed to the escheator of each county, when any grant of a market, fair, or other privileges, or license of alienation of lands was solicited, to inquire by a jury whether such grant of alienation was prejudicial to the king or others, in case same should be made.) ' Inquisit'w ""p ta apud Watlington in com' Oxen tertio die Aprilis anno, etc., vicesimo tertio coram magro Rico' Lowe, at aliis commissionaris dui. Regis, ad enquirend, de omnibus illus bonis at catalis Elizabethse que fuit uxor Reginald Barantyn quam Joh'es Upham nuper duxit in ux'em et ad manus Joh'es Tycheborn ut diceter devenerunt,' etc. In this case the name is written simply, John Upham." "John Upham " — of New England — "and Lieut. Phineas, his son added without doubt the final e to their names, in accordance with the custom of the age of Elizabeth, of giving this termination to many w jrds. This letter was subsequently dropped and the name assumed the original form." Upham Genealogy. II "We now turn to consider the origin of the name Upham as a local designation. We find it used to indicate a place as early as the time of King Edward the Confessor (1041 to 1061), in the following passage from Doomsday Book (vol. 2, p. 36): ' Vpham tenvit Edeva queda femina t'. r'. p. dim. hid. 7. XXX. acr. mo. terr. Will, de Warrenna in dnio. val. X. sol.' This we suppose to mean that a certain woman Edeva, in the reign of King Edward the Confessor (f. r'. e'. tempora regis Edwardi), held ' in d'nio' the place called Vpham, it being seven half hides and thirty acres in extent, and lying in the manor of Will, de Warrenna. Val. X. sol. " This passage is thus referred to in the index to the same: 'Lccus Nola. Possession Genera. Ten. in d'nio. Comitatus. Upham. Excessa. Hundred. Possessor Nola. Berdestapla. Will de Warrenna. " This tract of land held by Edeva, under the Confessor, bore, undoubtedly at that time, as well as at the period when the Dooms- day Book was made, the name Upham. This places the origin of the name previous to the battle of Hastings, thereby precluding the probability of a Norman origin, and compelling us to confine our investigations to the Anglo-Saxon. " In deciding upon the antiquity of this word, we must first as- certain if it be a compound or a primitive word. It might be formed by uniting the Anglo-Saxon words; ' Up, an adjective, signifying exalted, high, elatus,' and ' Ham in the names of places la Upham Genealooy. denoting a home, dwelling, village. ' — Bosworth's Dictionary of the Anglo-Saxon Lang.; Hay's Proverbs and Obsolete Words. Lond. *i768, /. 125. Analogy favors this theory of the origin of the word Upham, for many names of towns, having such a termination, are evidently compounds in ' ham.' " Our own opinion, however, founded on reasons now to be ad- duced, is, that the word Upham is primitive, as old as the language itself, and perhaps of Celtic, or even earlier origin, i. Because it is used in the earliest records, to designate an extensive tract of land ; a word the type of which existed in the language, and when ap- plied to land would express an inherent quality. This word is ' Upha, Above, Super., Lye. ' — Bosworth's Diet., A. S. Lang. We regret to say that we have no means of ascertaining the date when this word was in use, as no authority is given. Indeed, the author of the Anglo-Saxon Dictionary observes, concerning the authority for words: ' Some words are from Somner, Benson and Lye, for which no other authority can be found. The orthography, inflec- tion and meaning of these words are given without alteration, on the responsibility of these authors.' 2. Because the word, with but a slight alteration, as Hupham, occurs in the Hebrew (Numb. 26:39), ^ cognate language. " These speculations in regard to the origin of the name are utterly fruitless in genealogical results, and leave us in doubt whether we should assign a Saxon or Norman origin to him who first assumed the name of Upham. " It may be proper in this connection to enumerate some of the places which now bear the name Upham. " Upham, a parish in the county of Hants, England, 65 miles from London, 3 N. N. W. from Bishops Waltham ; contained, in 1843, 581 inhabitants. It was the birthplace of Dr. Young, the author of the ' Night Thoughts.' " Upham, Tipperary county, kingdom of Munster, Ireland. A village in the parish of Killenaule, barony of Sleibhardagh. It is 96 miles from Dublin, and with the parish contains 3,400 inhabit- ants. — Gorton's Topog. Diet.

Kalenders and Inventories of his Majesty's Exchequer, vol. 2, p. 113. " It may also be proper to refer to works in which individuals of this name are mentioned. " Thomas Upham of Melverton, England, 1684, is mentioned by Joseph Besse, in his history of the Quakers (pp. 638-643) as one who suffered from religious persecution. " " Proceedings in Chancery (Elizab., vol. 3, No. 19, 1587). Plain- tiff, Margaret Upham; defendant, Millissent CuUeforde. Object of suit, to protect the plaintiff's title to the widow's estate. Prem- ises, a tenement and closes of land granted to the plaintiff's late husband, Thomas Upham. The defendant claims under another grant, alleged to have been made to her husband — county of Southampton, now Hants." This comprises all there is in Dr. Upham's " Notices " bearing upon this subject. For some years I have carefully preserved every item of infor- mation, however unimportant, which may some time be found useful as an aid to the discovery of the origin of John Upham, the ancestor of the American Uphams; such items as have been gathered in this way are now recorded here for future reference, and with the hope that they may yet be useful in that direction. In this connection I will also note that Col. Joseph L. Chester — the well-known American genealogist, who recently died in Lon- don — wrote me not long before his death, as follows: " I have always taken notes of the name of Upham wherever I have met it, such as I have now scattered through my collections, which fill more than one hundred folio volumes. I do not know what I may already have about the Uphams, possibly all that is needed. From what is known, and what I know of the Upham family, I should think their origin here might be ascertained; and in the event of a search, I should count pretty confidently on success." Previous to the above-mentioned correspondence, an effort i ■». Upham Genealooy. had been made to find the record of birth, and birthplace of John Upham, through an English genealogist — of less note — who wrote: " In looking up the name, I find they were an old and respectable family, and lived principally at Wiveliscome, in Som- erset; a branch also lived at Coventry, in Warwickshire." The principal result of this was to obtain the following extracts from the wills of Upham in the Prerogative Court of Canterbury, Somerset House, London, between 1350 and 1660, viz.: 1587. John Uphame of Brompton Ralph, in the parish of Wiveliscombe, Co. Somerset; names his wife Margaret, and chil., Joane, John and Edward. He held land also at Wiveliscombe. 1587.

This correspondent also wrote: "There are Uphams living at Taunton and Wiveliscombe now (1877). There is no record of John Upham, born in the year 1597, in the parochial records of that year at Wiveliscombe. They were doubtless a Somerset family, and further information ought to be found among the wills at Wells. " Wiveliscombe is a market town, and has 2,735 inhabitants; it is remotely situated among the swelling hills, on one side of which it hangs, with its feet in the valley." (Handbook.) A correspondence with the clergyman at " Upham Rectory," Bishop Walthara, Hants, Eng., and with the clergyman at " Upham Glebe," Killenaule, County Tipperary, Ireland, shows that neither of these have been able to discover the origin of the name Upham as applied to those localities. The Bradenstock, to which Dr. Upham has referred as the first locality where the name has been found as applied to a family, is mentioned in Murray's Handbook — Wilts, Dorset, and Somerset, London, 1869, p. 7: " Bradenstoke, or Broadstoke, was one of the four religious houses which stood in the early times on, or near the banks of the Avon; the others were Malmsbury, Stanley, and Laycock. ' Its remains,' says the poet Bowles, ' yet appear conspicuous on the edge of that long sweep of hills which formed the S. W. bounds of the ancient forest of Braden, from whence the Danes descended like a storm, to lay waste the country about Chippenham and Laycock. It may be distinguished by the mossy buttresses and battlements afar off in the sunshine.' Bradenstock was founded A. D. 1142, for Augustine, or Black Canons, by Wal- ter d' Evreaux, father of Patrick, Earl of Salisbury, and grand- father of Ela, Longespie's wife. At the Dissolution, it was granted / mimt^ffmmm i6 Upham Genealogy. to Rich. Perhall, and afterward belonged to Danvers, and Me- thuens, now to G. Goldney, Esq. " The remains of the priory are well worth inspection. They consist chiefly of the walls and roof of a fourteenth century hall, now cut up into several rooms. The very finely-carved oak roof, with the December ball flower on the beams, can only be seen in the garrets. At one end of the hall are the priors' chambers, with cor- ner staircase and turret. A boss in the ceiling of the chief room bears the initial of Snow, the last prior. Beneath are vaulted cel- lars, temp. Richard II. Close to the house is a plain fifteenth cen- tury barn, with a modern roof. " Dauntsey Station lies two and one-half miles to the right, and is four and one-half miles S. E. of Malmsbury, on Route I. Lon- don to Bath — Great Western Railway. It is eighty-seven and one-half miles from London." There is a church at Dauntsey. The following notes show a few individuals who have been heard of in recent years bearing this name in England: There was a James George Upham, of the hamlet of Ratcliifej in the parish of Stepney, Co. Middlesex, Eng. (eldest son and heir apparent of James Upham of the same place, gentleman, by Sarah, his wife, second daughter and co-heir of Rev. Geo. Baxter, D. D., Rector of Glaston, Bucks, and Vicar of East Tilbury, Essex, and Margaret, his wife, one of the daus. of John Huxley of Wyer Hall, in the parish of Edmonton, Middlesex, Eng.), who took the name of Tatem only, in 1807. As per official records at College of Arms, London. Married: Isaac Guilleman, M. D., of Etham, June 8, 1839, to Anne Pierce, the daughter of John Upham of London, West India merchant. He was born January 25, i8ii; as per Guilleman Pedi- gree. Married: Edward Upham, of St. Martins, Exeter, and Mary Hoblyn, Aug. 25, 1801; as per register Columb, St. Major, Corn- wall. Married: Richard Helmbridge, of East Coker, Somerset, to Elizabeth Vpham, — apparently about 1560; as per Visitations. In 1873, was published in London, a " Return of Owners of Upham Genealogy. 17 Lands in all the Counties of England." (The Metropolis ex- cluded.) This had the following Uphams only: " Mrs. Upham, Bridgewater, 116 acres; W. Upham, Taunton, 23 acres; Miss Up- ham, Taunton, i acre." In 1877, William George Upham, who was in business at 75 High St., Hamste&d, London, wrote that his father was Hugh Northam Upham, born in Taunton, Somerset ; where his father was also born, his name being William. William George had brothers in London: John Launcelot, Robert Northam, and Alfred Eugene Edward; all of w'lom were in business, or occupying posi- tions of some kind. Hugh Northam — father of this family — said the family was probably originally from Devonshire. He also said there were but few of the name in England, so far as he was aware, and these he believed all came from the same original family. A George Upham was also mentioned, living at Russell House, South End Road, Hampstead, London, N. W.; he had been a bookseller and publisher in Bond St., had also been at one time connected with the British Museum, and was from Devonshire. Further mention was made of Edwin and William Upham, of Taunton, — relatives of the writer — the latter of whom was town clerk at Taun- ton. William George Upham manifested an unusual degree of interest in the subject of the origin of the Uphams, and expressed his intention to investigate the matter, but I am not aware that he has ever paid farther attention to it. In 188 r, William Arthur Upham, of London (Atlas Assurance Company, Fire Dept., 92 Cheapside), also wrote, saying he was born in Taunton, in 1834; his father — then deceased — had been the town clerk at Taunton, He too was apparently quite inter- ested in the origin of the family, and expressed a purpose to give the matter his attention, but nothing more has come from him. In all probability the family has been located within twenty or thirty miles of Bath, for many generations. Edward Upham, bookseller, fellow of the Oriental Society, etc., was mayor of Bath, sometime about 1807; his obituary was in the Gentleman's Mag- azine about 1836. See, also, Allibone's Diet, of Authors. He was author of several works, an important one of which was his 3 Hill i8 i Upham Gknealooy. " Sacred Book of Ceylon," in three octavo volumes. His brother was also a bookseller at Bristol. These notes are all given, not that they have a special value in themselves, but it is believed they might lead to something should a determined search at some time be entered upon, with a view to establishing the origin of the family and name in England. It may be well to also call attention to the work of John O'Hart: " The Irish Landed Gentry, when Cromwell came to Ireland." In this he gives the n^ime as of Irish origin, and says on page i8o: " This sirname " — Upham — " is an anglicised form of the ancient Irish Uppainj a family descended from Ir, one of the sons of Milesius of Spain, a quo the Milesian Irish Nation." But the only proof he offers is a reference to the locality in Ireland where the name appears — and which has been already mentioned here — and to the fact that a family of 'he name were living at Dublin, All his references go to show the English, and not the Irish origin, and are largely those already given in the foregoing; it is therefore concluded that such a theory is not tenable. The family mentioned as living in Dublin, as has been since learned, are obscure fishermen, with no knowledge of their ancestry, and are quite as likely to have been of English, as of Irish origin; though how the name got into Ireland is a matter for interesting speculation. THE HULL COLONY. Gilbert Nash, recording secretary of the Weymouth Historical Society, in the printed proceedings of that society (No. i), has recorded this: " The Rev. Joseph Hull, a native of Somersetshire, England, a graduate of St. Mary's Hall, Oxford, and a preacher of some celebrity in the south-west of England, having become dissatisfied with his position, or, inspired with a desire to see the new world just now dawning upon the eyes of Europe, and toward which so many of his friends and neighbors were flocking, resigned, in 1632, the rectorship of Northleigh, in Devon, which he had held for eleven years, and gathering a company of devoted followers who were willing to share with him the dangers, difficulties and pleas- ures of this new and unknown country, set sail on the 20th of March, 1635, from Weymouth, in Old Dorset, for the lands of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. " The company consisted of twenty-one families — about one hundred and five individuals — with probably no more definite destination than that so generally indicated above, preferring to leave the precise spot of their location to the direction of Provi- dence. After a passage of forty-six days, a fair one for that period, with such vessels as they could command, and of which we have no further record, they passed in among the verdant islands of that beautiful bay, leaving on their left the bustling settlement of Hull, then a harbor for the inner plantations, and after a pleasant sail of about ten miles cast anchor before Gover- nor Winthrop's infant village of Boston. This was on the 6th of May, and it was not until July 2, that, with the permission of the General Court, they at length settled upon Wessaguscus as their T •0 Upham Genealogy. future home, the name of which, in pleasant memory of the port in Dorset they had so recently left, was changed to Weymouth, — a name it has honorably borne to the present time, with its orig< inal territory unchanged by addition or diminution. " This selection was a serious business for the new colonists, whose eyes were familiar only with the highly cultivated fields of old England, who knew little of the capacities of the soil upon which they now trod for the first time, of whose history they knew nothing, and whose outlines, even, they could hardly discern, so thickly were they wooded. " There was no lack in quantity of land, and but little dispute with respect to titles, owing to war and pestilence, which had nearly depopulated that section ; but there was a choice in quality and location, and even that must be left mainly, as they had from the first proposed, to the direction of Providence. So they sailed down the harbor, passing the many islands that dot so thickly its fair surface, and entering the estuary now called Fore River, came to anchor in a small cove about four miles from its mouth, after- ward known as Mill Creek, and not far from the spot where Weston's colony found a landing some thirteen years before. " Weymouth, even af so early a date, was not wholly a wilder- ness, for with the Weston settlement of 1622, that of the Gorges in the following year, scattered remnants of wliose people yet re- mained upon the ground, and others who had since come in, quite a population had gathered within the limits of Wessaguscus, while the land had been so generally taken up, and the plantations were so closely connected that the new comers were obliged to make their settlement upon territory further to the southward. " The tract selected was situated southerly from Burying Hill (beyond which, to the north, were the larger portion of the older farms), with King Oak Hill for a central point, from whose sum- mit, seaward and landward extended a magnificent prospect of hill and stream, of forest and bay, not surpassed in natural beauty by the most favored landscapes of the old world. The temporary habitations of the Weymouth colonists of 1635 were located in the valley lying along its western base, reaching to Burying Hill. Upham Genealogy. ai Upon the latter were the meeting-house and watch-house, as well as the burying-place, while the farms were scattered for a distance to the west, south and east. The rude shelters first erected were replaced from time to time by more substantial and commodious structures built upon the farms themselves, when the lands had become better improved, and the danger from Indians less im- minent." " In a later paper, prepared by Mr. Nash, and read at the Nov., 1882, meeting of the Weymouth Historical Society, and also at the Dec. — same year — meeting of the New England Historic-Gene- alogical Society in Boston, and published in the Weymouth Ga- zette, of February 23, 1883; he makes frequent mention of the Hull Colony, from which the following extracts have been made, the paper itself having a special reference to the history of the first church at Weymouth. "The Massachusetts Colonial Records (I. 149) state, under date of July 8, 1635, that ' there is a leave granted to twenty-one ffamilyes to sitt down at Wessaguscus.' Gov. Winthrop in his journal (I. 194) says, 'at the court (5 mo. 8) Wessaguscus was made a plantation, a Mr. Hull, a minister in England, and twenty- one families with him, allowed to sit down there — after called Weymouth.' "The very general assumption that there was no permanent settlement in Weymouth (using the name by which the town has since been known), previous to the arrival of the Hull company, in 1635, can hardly be sustained in the face of the very strong evidence to the contrary. C F. Adams, Jr., Esq., in his address delivered 4th July, 1874, at the celebration of the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the settlement of the town, and in his paper on the * Old planters about Boston harbor,' read before the Massa- chusetts Historical Society, and published in its collections, proves conclusively that the Gorges company, which settled upon the deserted plantations of Thomas Weston's people, in September, 1623, and which, it has usually been thought, was wholly broken up in the following spring, left a number of its emigrants there, who remained and become permanent settlers. These were joined ■Pi >f Upham Genealogy. from time to time by single families or small companie;!, until, upon the arrival of Mr. Hull's company, the settlemcr-r had attained quite respectable proportions. " A careful analysis of the court and town records will show that, instead ol the company from Weymouth, England, in 1635, being the first settlers, there were, at the date of its arrival, cer- tainly not less than fifty families, and perhaps seventy or eighty, already residing there; and it is more than possible that this was an important reason why thiii place was selected by this company for its settlement. A flourishing colony already established was sufficient evidence of good soil, a good location, a favorable i>^si- tion for trade with the Indians, and for communication with other plantations about the bay; besides, and this was no insi(im:ii.ant matter in those days, the protection thus afforded from the sav- ages. More than this, probably many of the previous settlers were relatives or friends of the later arrivals. " The similarity of name, and of the localities of some whose former residences are known, give color to this probabilit/; and the name Weymouth, given at this time, 1635, to the plantation, may not be wholly owing to the influx of new people sailing from Weymouth, in Dorset, but to the calling up of old memories in the minds of the previous settlers, who, years before, sailed from the same port nud perhaps lived there. "An examination of the public records will afford evidence, surprising in value and volume, of this early and continued settle- ment. Although the earliest record in the archives of the town bears date loth Dec, 1636, and very few entries are prior to 1644-5, yc* there are those undated that are probably earlier, and these, with the evidence reflected from the later dates, together with corroboration received from other and contemporaneous sources, give additional and strong proof in support of the same. " Thus we have the Gorges colony in 1623, the arrival of anew company from Weymouth, England, thr '"nllowingvear, the capture of Morton in 16?.^, the visit of Governoi W.rth-np in 163- '*"e tax lists of the Massachusetts Bay Cr ■ ■ "" n ? y, and on.vards, which include Wessaguscus, and the incidental mention from con- Upham Genealogy. temporaneous ourcescovn.ig nearly the Intervening time These aflbrd a firm basis upon which to rest an earlier settlement than that of the Hull company. " Of the settlers who W(_ re here in 1628 and '30, wc know very little beyond the fact that they were here at that date, and that Thomas Morton, of Mount Wollaston, of unpleasant memory, was on inti- mate terms with some of them, and was arrested by he Plymouth authorities, while on a visit here in 1638. Our facts relating to the early settlement are briefly these. A permanent settlement in the fall of 1633, by Col. Robert Gorges, continued additions during the next four years, the arrest of Morton, casual mention for the following three years, the visit of Governor Winthrop, on his way to and from Plymouth, in 1633, record of births in 1633, and the colonial tax lists from 1630 onwards until the er-^ction of the set- tlement into a plantation, with the right of a deputy to the General Court. "There are reasons why the early con temporanous records and writers so seldom mention this town and its affair , in the fact of its different origin, the marked jealousy, not to say nkind feelings which the Plymouth and Massachusetts Bay Coloni s regarded it. It had a more commercial element in its constiturion. It was, also, in its incipience, episcopal in its ecclesiastical rehi tions, which, although gradually relaxing, carried enough of the .lavor of the 'establishment' with it to make it any thing but palatible to the taste of their puritan and independent neighbors. The relation then existing between them and their neighbors about -he Bay we cannot determine with certainty now, but we may judge something of what they were by the casual mention, and the inci dental ex- hibitions of feeling, cropping out but too frequently. "On the 3d of September (1635) the name of the settlement was changed to Weymouth, and it was made a plantaticn, with a privilege of a deputy to the General Court. Mr. Hull *as also made a freeman at the same time. His first grant of Ian i is re- corded, as in Weymouth, isth June, 1636. The same year he also received a grant of land at Hingham. In 1637, he was reported as being still in Weymouth, while the same year, probably later ^ -^nrntmrnm^ -*!»" Upham Genealogy. and transiently, he is named among the list of first settlers in Salem. He was also heard from about the same time preaching at Bass River, Beverly. In September, 1638, he was chosen deputy to the General Court from Hingham, and was also ap- pointed a local magistrate for the same town. In 1639, he was again elected its deputy to the General Court. Fifth May of that year, he preached his farewell sermon in Weymouth, and later, in the same month, is heard from at Barnstable, in Plymouth Colony, making a settlement." " His sojourn at Barnstable was a short and stormy one, for he had hardly become settled there with his little company " (this has not reference to the original company which came with him to Weymouth), " when the territory was entered upon by Rev. Mr. Lothrop and his flock from Scituate. Mr. Hull was made a free- man of Plymouth Colony, in December, 1639. There seems to have been trouble in the Barnstable church, and Mr. Hull preached at Yarmouth so acceptably, that early in 1641 he received a tall from the church there, which he promptly accepted, and for which he and his wife were excommunicated by the Barnstable church. On this account perhaps, and possibly from the influence of the Plymouth authorities, who appear to have become hostile to him, his stay at Yarmouth was of short duration, for we find him as a preacher at the Isle of Shoals, in March, 1642. He seems not yet to have wholly abandoned the Plymouth Colony, for, nth March, 1642, his wife renews her covenant with the Barnstable church, and 7th March, 1643, a warrant for his arrest is issued by the court, * should he continue his ministrations as minister or magistrate in that colony.' His troubles there appear to have been adjusted, for he was received back into the Barnstable church 10th August, 1643. He now bids farewell to thaL colony, and we next hear of him as preaching at York, Maine, where, or in that vicinity, he re- mained for eight or ten years, subject however to the not very friendly attentions of his Massachusetts Bay Colony acquaintances. He afterward returned to England, and was, in 1659, rector of St. Buryan's, Cornwall, where he remained about three years, when his name appears among the ejected ministers under the ' St. Bar- Upham Genealogy. «| tholomew Act.' He again took refuge in America, where he was found, 1665, the year of his death, once more at the Isle of Shoals* having been driven from Oyster River by the Quakers. *' Mr. Hull was born in Somersetshire, England, in 1594; was educated at Oxford University, St. Mary's Hall, where he grad- uated in 1614; became rector at Northleigh, Devon, in 1621, which position he resigned in 1632, when he commenced gathering from his native county and those surrounding it, the company with which he sailed from Weymouth, Dorset, 20th March, 1635. " * Mr. Hull,' says Mr. Savage, 'came over in the Episcopal in- , terest ' and his sympathies appear to have leaned in that direction, although while in America he was professedly a non-conformist, or Independent; hence, probably, the jealousy and petty persecution which followed him with more or less virulence, during the greater part of his residence on these shores. He was a man of worth and learning by the admission of Hubbard. He must have been a popular man from his success in securing followers to make up his company of emigrants, and his selection by the voice of his con- stituents at three different elections as deputy to the General Court, twice at Hingham, and once at Barnstable. He must have been an acceptable preacher from the eagerness with which his services were sought. Dr. Mather places him among 'our first good men ' and Pike, his successor at Dover, re members him as ' a reverend minister,' while Governor Winthrop says he was ' a very contentious man.' Possibly the worthy Governor may not have been quite free from prejudice against the free-spoken, independent minister, ' with Episcopal antecedents and tendencies. Yet the frequent re- movals, numerous troubles, vexations and lawsuits, certainly give room for the Governor's opinion. No fault seems to have been found with his moral or religious character, but he was certainly unfortunate in thij country by having circumstances so often against him, or in having so many bad neighbors. It is somewhat doubt- ful whether he was ever settled over the church at Weymouth." This somewhat detailed account of Mr. Hull, and his affairs, is preserved for the reason that it will naturally be of interest to the descendants of the members of the Hull Colony; and it may in- 4 ^ i Upham Genealogy. dicate, to some extent, what was perhaps the general character of his followers, though his relations with them appear to have ceased not very long after reaching at Weymouth. The following is a complete list of the Hull company, with care- ful notes of correction by Mr. Rufus King, of Yonkers, N. Y., the name of whose ancestor appears therein. Mr. King has circulated copies of this list among the parishes in England, in which it is probable the company was organized, with a view to the identifica- tion of his ancestor. Mr. Robt. B. Hull, of New York, a descendant of the Rev. Joseph Hull, has also endeavored to ascertain as much as possible with reference to the origin of these people. He says: " Several of the emigrants came from Broudway in Somerset," and thinks, "the name of Robert Dabyn should be Robert Davys; Whitemarke, should be Whitemarsh; George Allen was an old man, aged 67 in 1635. He had been preceded by two sons, by a first wife, Henry and Samuel, who came in 1629-30. 'Poole,' says Porter, * was born in Batcombe, Somerset,' but Baylie derives the family from Taunton; John Uphim is mentioned in 'News from New England;' Hoble should be Hubble; Huste should be Harte; Woodcooke should be Woodcock; Porter's age should be 23, or 33. Thoroughgood was probably a brother, or relative, of the courtier Sir John, was appointed clerk for license to persons going abroad, 19th Nov., 1631. These emigrants were joined on this side of the water by Edward Bennett, Mr. Thomas Jenner, sen., Thomas White, William Frye, Thomas Rawling, or Rawlings, Richard Syl- vester, William Smith, Wright, Thomas Applegate, Clement Briggs, Arthur Warren, Edmond Harte, Stephen French, and* others. I conjecture that most, if not all the first settlers of Wassa- guscus were West country people, and came from that point where the counties of Somerset, Dorset, and Devon join.

John Upham was the first to bear his name in America, and so far as known, he was the ancestor of all who have since had the name in this country.* He was born in England, probably in Somersetshire ; but of his origin, or ancestry, nothing is known. He came to Weymouth with the Hull Colony, a record of which has already been given, and according to which, the family at that time consisted of the following members: John Upham, age 35 ; John Upham, jr., age 7 ; Elizabeth Upham, age 32 ; Nathaniel Upham, age 5 ; Sarah Upham, age 26 ; Elizabeth Upham, age 3. As will be observed, his age is given as thirty-five at that time, according to which he would have been born in the year 1600; the record on his gravestone would make his age three years more, but this is probably a mistake, for the age as given by him- self, — as this must have been — in his early years, would without doubt be more reliable than one which was recorded after his death, and also the death of most of the members of his family. From other sources, we know that the name of his wife was Eliza- beth, and so assume the Elizabeth above mentioned was his wife, her age at that time being thirty-two. Sarah Upham, age 26, was likely his sister; there is no further record of her in connection with the family, that has been discovered. John, Nathaniel, and Elizabeth were unquestionably his children, subsequent mention proves them to have been such. His wife, Elizabeth, was the *There ue some who have received this name through adoption, whom tliis does not in- clude of course- 34 Upham Genealogy. mother of all his children, unless, which is not probable, and there is nothing to indicate, there was an earlier marriage in England. With regard to his wife: her name is assumed to have been Webb, for the will of Richard Webb has this : " Also I appoint and design my loving friends. Deacon John Upham, of Maiden, Deacon Clapp and Lieut. Clapp, to be r.iy executors," etc. This dated July ai, 1659, while in the same record, and bearing the same date, is the following : " Joseph Webb being before me, the magistrate, de- clared that he chose his Uncle Upham, Lieut. Clapp, and Deacon Clapp, whom his father appointed executors of his will, to be guar- dians," etc. John Upham, to have been the uncle of Joseph, the ■ son of Richard Webb, must either have married 'be sister of the said Richard Webb, oi Richard Webb must have rnarried the sister of John Upham. There is no record of the death of John Up- ham's wife Elizabeth, though as will appear later, he contracted another marriage in his old age, in 167 1. Mr. Wyman says: " Deeds and probate records show that Deacon John Upham was brother-in-law to Joanna, wife of Robert Martin, of Rehoboth, and to Richard Webb, of Weymouth." On the second day of September, 1635, John Upham was ad- mitted freeman, at Weymouth, at i' e same time with the Rev. Joseph Hull, and others of the Huli company. This was also the date on which the name of the place was changed from Wessagus- cus to Weymouth, and it was made a plantation at the same time, with the privilege of a deputy to the General Court, From this date the members of this company appear to have been an im- portant element in that community. Mr. Nash, the Weymouth chronicler, thus indicates the condi- tion of affairs at Weymouth on the arrival of the Hull company: " If it were the usual custom in the settlement of this country to form churches immediately after taking permanent possession, and of this there can be little doubt, then Wessaguscus should have had a church several years at least before the arrival of the Rev. Joseph Hull. "With the Gorges company, in the autumn of 1623, came Rev. William Morrell, their minister, a clergyman of the established Upham Genealogy. H church. He appears to have been a quiet, scholarly gentleman, of cultivated tastes and refined habits, much better fitted for the duties and enjoyments of an English rectory, than to found and build up a church in the rough settlements of a new country. He could better enjoy the congenial society of his equals, at home, than guide the rude, independent minds of those who constituted his companions in this, to him, wholly unknown enterprise. The whole plan of the undertaking was conceived and started in a spirit particularly unconscious of the real position of affairs where it was to be executed. It was a paper campaign, projected by an unpractical general, and entrusted to incompetent officers. As such the result was inevitable failure. It was started with organization and machinery enough to carry on a colony of the greatest magnitude after years of successful growth; and in order to give it dignity and importance, and to secure the favor of the home government, its ecclesiastical character and position were well cared for in the plan. Mr. Morrell was their minister, suffi- cient for the needs of its first company. He was the pioneer to whom was entrusted all of the preliminary work that was to speedily result in a flourishing bishopric, and as such he was clothed with ample powers, with full control of all the churches present and in immediate prospect upon these shores. The reality soon satisfied him that the plan was a failure, or that he was not the man to execute it. A rigorous climate, an inhospitable coast, and the companionship of uncongenial spirits were more than he had bargained for and more than he could bear. With the dis- couragements of many of his associates he sympathized. Thus we find that he remained with his charge about a year and a half and then sailed to England, sailing from Plymouth; having had the rare good sense and discretion to keep his ecclesiastical powers and authority to himself, for he did not in the least degree attempt to exercise these, although they were so large, showing them only when about to leave. " With this marvellous prospect before him when he undertook the position, and the facilities given him to carry out almost any ideas he may have entertained respecting his ecclesiastical work, "viv i"iiii?^^4BpM 'MumStBlUmMm^ii^ J0 * Upham Genealogy. however extravagant they may have been, is it presumptuous to suppose that he did not neglect the very first step necessary to carry out the plan of the enterprise, which would be the formation of a local church ? We have no positive evidence that he did this, but the probabilities would certainly seem to favor such a proceed- ing. Without such an organization he could hope to accomplish but little; with it he would have made a beginning and laid the founda- tions, at least, upon which to erect the imposing structure, that had filled the minds of the original projectors in England." Mr. Nash then refers to a passage in " Prince's Chronicles," relating to this settlement, which he says, "seems not to be credited by Mr. Adams, yet it is of such a nature that we can hardly pass it by as entirely without foundation." The passage is this : " This year comes some additions to the few inhabitants of Wessaguscus, from Weymouth, England, who were another sort of people than the former." Then in brackets ["and on whose account I conclude the town is since called Weymouth "]. To which is appended the following note: " They have the Rev. Mr. Barnard, their first non-conformist minister, who dies among them. But whether he comes before or after 1630, or when he dies is yet unknown, nor do I anywhere find the least hint of him, but in the manuscript letter taken from some of the oldest people of Wey- mouth." Mr. Nash says further: " This statement is a very important one, and would seem to be entitled to more weight than Mr. Adams is inclined to allow it. Rev. Thomas Prince was born 15th May, 1687, and was old enough before their decease, to know many of those who were the children of the very earliest settlers of the town. Mr. Prince himself does not appear to doubt its correct- ness, but is surprised to find no mention made of the company and the minister, Mr. Barnard, in contemporaneous writers. As be- fore intimated, satisfactory reasons could no doubt be found for such omissions were the relations between the few scattered set- tlements of this time known to us. " We have no further record of church or minister until 1635, when permission was given, 8th July, by the General Court, for I Upham Genealogy. Si Rev. Joseph Hull and twenty-one families to sit down at Wesia- guscus. " Rev. Mr. Morrell, it is admitted, came to this town in the Episcopal interest. He was a clergyman of the established church, clothed with extraordinary powers to form, govern and perpetuate churches of that communion. Whatever influence he exerted was in favor of the extension and strengthening of that organiza- tion. His people were in sympathy with him in this matter, and if he founded a church here it was of that denomination; if he did not, he left influences behind him that would naturally work toward the accomplishment of that purpose, and these influences would as naturally continue to operate while these settlers formed an important element in that community; they would of necessity oppose the ecclesiastical systems of the Plymouth and Bay colo- nies, then or soon after to become their neighbors. While the settlement was one, before the arrival of Gov. Winthrop and the rapid increase of settlements around the Bay, there was nothing to call up this feeling of opposition, for the few emigrants who came from time to time, even if their sympathies were ;it variance with the previous settlers, had enough to do to look after their own affairs; besides, the colony was not strong enough to quarrel. The arrival of Gov. Winthrop, the establishment of the colonial government, and the large tide of emigration that set in imme- diately after, had its effect upon the little plantation at Wessa- guscus. The favorable situation, and the already established community, drew in many new settlers from other points, and the influence of the government and the religious system it supported, soon made itself felt, and with the little assistance derived from these sources, became at length predominant. Still the old feel- ing of loyalty to the Church of England and to the Gorges com- pany was powerful enough to form a strong party. " This was the position of affairs when, in the summer of 163S, the arrival of Mr. Hull and his score of families introduced a new element of discord into the already divided community. The new- comers, not in full sympathy with either faction, deemed them- selves strong enough and of sufficient importance to have at least wamm S8 Upham Genealogy. ' I- an equal voice in the councils of the town, and as there M'as no minister at their coming, and as they brought one ready-made at their hands, what better could they do than accept him for all ? This at once aroused the opposition of the older settlers, and measures were immediately taken to prevent such a result. The friends of the government seem to have been the strongest and most energetic. They select Mr. Thomas Jenner, a recent emi- grant to Dorchester, and invite him to take the field in opposition, which he was veiy ready to do, for we find him here the year following. Success appears to have followed the movement, for Mr. Hull virtually retires from the contest, as the records show him in 1636 and 1637 as a candidate for the ministerial position in other places, and soon, with a sufficiently permanent location in the neighboring town of Hingham, to become its deputy to the General Court. Still he does not appear to have wholly relin- quished his claim to the Weymouth pulpit, for it was not until 1639 tliat he preached his farewell sermon. "The jealousy of the original settlers of any authority below the Crown, outside of their own patent, may have prevented as close an intimacy with the neighboring plantations as would other- wise have existed; and this would furnish a reason why it is so seldom mentioned by them in connection with their own affairs. However this may be, the authority of the colonial government was gradually extended over the settlement, and the people sub- mitted with the best grace they could, but not without an occa- sional exhibition of the old spirit by way of protest. The town was reorganized, its name changed, and the privilege of a deputy to the General Court granted to it in the summer and fall of 1635. At once the three opposing elements show themselves, and the little town chooses three deputies, instead of the one to which it was entitled. Capt. John Bursley represents the original settlers, Mr. Wm. Reade those who favor the colonial government, while Mr. John Upham is the selection of the Hull emigrants, and, as has been the case in some later days, the patronage of the ruling power proves the most powerful, and Mr. Reade retains his seat, while his t.'O competitors quietly retire." :/!' Upham Genealogy. So much of these early troubles at Weymouth as it appears John Upham was identified with, have been shown, but the record of this will not be continued. This at least indicates the condition of affairs with the Hull company, as well as the standing of John Upham among those who must have known him best at that time. The following is a transcript from the Weymouth records: " 1636. At a meeting in the town of Weymouth, holden the 12 of June, Voted, That for the great lotts we should lott unto every compleate person six acres, and tc every half passenger under twelve years of age, to have three to a head.

" King-oak Hill," mentioned above, is a sightly, beautiful hill overlooking Boston Bay. " Berrying Island " has a history; Wey- mouth was the second settlement in the colony, next after Ply- mouth. The first settlers have not been held in the highest repute — whether justly so or not, but they came there nevertheless. They landed upon this " burying island," and lived upon it, and near to it, in 1622-3. They had trouble with the Indians, and Miles Standish came from Plymouth to save them; the story of his march is historical. This company no doubt lived very near upon what was afterward the land of John Up^am. It is probable that the differences among the residents at Wey- mouth were adjusted in some way, for the May after the Hull colony came, in 1636; John Upham was elected representative to the General Court, as appears from the records of the same, vol. I, page 128; this court holden in Boston. He was also elected representative to the sec^. nd term of the court for the same j'ear; but on petition was allowed to remain at home, as appears on page 133 of the same record. The same volume shows that for both terms of the General Court for 1637, and for the first term for 1638, held at Newton, he was one of the deputies from Weymouth. He was also deputy for 1639, and on the "5 day of the 9th month " of the same year he " was appointed to be in the place of Mr. Parker, who is gone to England, to order small business in the town of Weymouth." In 1640 his oldest son died, he who came from England, and is mentioned in the passenger list as aged seven; which fact appears by the following record of births, deaths, etc., in the City Com- missioner's office, Boston, Liber I, p. 67, viz.: "Weymouth." "John Upham, sonne of John Upham, buried sd. 4m, 1640." The following pleading was evidently drawn in November, 1640, and is from a " Note-Book kept by Thomas Lechford, Esq., Law- yer," etc., 1638-1641 (p. 338, MS. p. 187).

Lastly the said defendts keepe the Towne booke disorderly some leaves having bin cutt & some blotts and other defects there are therein The Complt prayeth that the de- fendts may be enjoined to appeare at the next Court to answer the premises & bring the said Towne booke wth them." (Note. — "I cannot find that this petition of Richard Lang was ever acted upon. John Upham and William Smith were both commissioners for Weymouth, and also deputies, and Warren and Sylvester were both well-known men ; so it is probable that the matter was passed over.) " In 1642, John Upham was one of the six who treated with the Indians for the lands at Weymouth, and obtained a title from them thereto ; concerning which Mr. Nash says : ■J 1 'i' 1 s ff ■#-^%.» h m^nm\ m ■■ dtt^ 4« Upham Genealogy. " The original settlers at Wessaguscus, or Weymouth, were what would now be termed ' squatters,' and their titles simply those of possession, the real owners being the Indians, whose rights were general and not individual. The English titles were vested in gov- ernmental grants to the large companies like the Plymouth, the Gorges and the Massachusetts Bay. These early settlers came into the territory of Wessaguscus before it was fairly in the possession of either company, consequently they could only acquire such a title as the native holders could give them, to be confirmed by later authority, whatever that might be. Weymouth extinguished the Indian title to its territory by purchase ; the deed bearing date 26th April, 1642, was executed by the resident chiefs, who sign themselves Wampetuc, alias Jonas Webacowett, Nateaunt and Nahawton, and is recorded among the Suffolk Deeds. Nateaunt's beach and probable camping ground was at the foot of Great Hill, in North Weymouth. The town was therefore now in position to confirm the planters in their possessions, and the existence of the list of possessions -made soon after, seems to indicate that this was done." In 1643 John Upham is mentioned as one of the selectmen ; and in 1644, power was given him by the General Court in connection with two others, to " end small causes at Weymouth." His name is subscribed to the doings of the town, as one of the selectmen, for the years 1645, 1646, and 1647. The last entry of this kind to which his name is signed (p. 16, Weymouth Town Records, vol. I), is dated the 21st day of the twelfth month, 1647; and there is no doubt that he remained in Weymouth until the year 1648. During the next two years there has been no record of him found. But it is certftin that at sometime between 1648 and 1650, he re- moved from Weymouth to Maiden, having been a resident of Wey- mouth, and connected with its affairs, for thirteen years or more. This removal probably took place in 1648 ; for in that year it appears " the town of Maiden was built on the north side of the Mystic river, by several persons from Charlestown, who gathered themselves into a church." He must have been a resident of Mai- Upham Genealogy. 43 den as early as 1650, for the reason that a petition was signed by him as a selectman of Maiden, dated the sad day of the first month, 1651 ; and it may be assumed that as he was a selectman so early in that year, he must have been an inhabitant certainly as early as the year 1650. The reason why he left Weymouth has never been discovered. The town records of Maiden, previous to 1678, have been lost, and we are thus deprived of a great source of information concerning him for the thirty years of his life between 1648 and 1678. Still, something has been learned concerning him during these years from other sources. Besides his signature as selectman in 1651, as above noted, it is also found where he was a witness to a document, by which the bounds of Charlestown and Maiden were established. In 1652 no mention has been found of him except that a deed was signed in his presence ; though he was probably selectman that year, as he signed a petition as such in the year following, 1653. Sometime about 1654, he, with some others at Maiden, seems to have incurred the displeasure of the General Court; the offense being the electing of their own minister, without consulting the other churches. The General Court Records, Liber II, p. 273, have this: "In answer to the petition of Joseph Hill, Abraham Hill, John Waite, John Sprague, Ralph Shepherd, John Upham, James Green, Thomas Call, in which they humbly acknowledge the offence they gave to the court and several churches about the ordi- nation of Mr. Matthews, &c. And therein also craving a remit- ment of j^t^ 6s 8d, part of a fine not yet satisfied, the court doth well approve, and accept of the petitioners' acknowledgment of their irregular actings in those times; but understanding that much, if not most, of the fine being paid for, and the rest is secured, of that should long since have been paid in, they see not cause to grant their request in that." In the year 1655, sixth month, his signature appears among the selectmen at Maiden; and in 1656, his name is mentioned as a witness to a deed only. In 1657, he, with two other persons, was appointed a commis- 44 Upham Genealooy. sioner by the Supreme Court, " for ending small cases at Maiden for one year ensuing." His name is also appended to an inven- tory taken by him the eighth month of the year 1657. In 1658, in September, another inventory has his name appended; and his name is also signed as a witness to a deed drawn up the same year. April 5, 1659, he was again appointed commissioner for Maiden by the Supreme Court; and also executor of the will of Richard Webb, and guardian of his son. In 1660 another inventory was taken by him. June 25, i66i, he was again appointed commissioner by the Supreme Court; and in the same year his name is signed to an in- ventory drawn by him. June 17, 1662, he was reappointed commissioner by the Supreme Court; also chosen as one of the grand jurors that year. No mention of his name is found in the records for the year 1663; and for several years after, the information which might have been obtained from the Supreme Court Records is lost — Liber 2 having been destroyed by fire. In 1664, there is a conveyance of land to John Upham, and one from John Upham to his son Phineas. The year following his name appears as a witness to a deed; and in 1666, an inventory was taken by him. But in 1667 there is nothing on record con- cerning him. In 1668, an answer was returned to a petition presented to the General Court by John Upham and others, in behalf of the town of Maiden; his name also appears appended to an inventory drawn up by himself that year. In the next year there is nothing. In 1670, he conveyed land to his son Phineas. In 167 1, Book 7, p. 224, Suffolk Deeds, has the following record: "John Upham — know all whom it may concern That whereas there is a consummation of marriage intended between me John Upham, Sen. of Maiden in New England and Katherine HoUard widow and Relict of Angell Hollard late deceased I the said John Upham do hereby wholly disclaim and utterly refuse to receive and take any goods Estate or appurtenances any way whatsoever Upham Genealogy. >Wi 4i belonging to the said Katharine and especially any money goods Estates or movables whatsoever that have been formerly or now are anyway belonging to the Estate of her former husband Angell HoUard.

" Grace Randall Clerk " That this marriage was actually consummated, the following imperfect record seems to indicate: " Marriages in Maiden." "John Upham and Hollie, 6m. '71." That is August, 1671, the year old style, commencing in March. Without doubt, this is the " Katheryn," wife of Angell " Hol- lard," who is numbered 84 on the list of passengers from England in the Hull company. In 1672, there is a record of an inventory drawn up by him, but nothing of John Upham in 1673. In 1674, there is the record of another inventory made by him; but for the next three years — 167s, '76, and '77, there is nothing on record of him. Subsequent to this period, the town records of Maiden are extant, from which it is learned that " Deacon John Upham " was moderator of the several town meetings for the years 1678, 1678-9, 1679, 1679-80 ; the last of which occurred on the 2d. Im. 1679-80, March 2, 1680. John Upham is mentioned in Lincoln's History of Worcester — p. 29 — as one of those interested in the settlement of Worcester in 1678. His will has not been found, and the foregoing mention embrace all the public notes which have been discovered concern- ing him. The only mention of his wife Elizabeth that has been found. ■'■.^^****#<*(iMBi*;wte*«ii > # Upham Genealogy. consists of incidental references; of which there are three, dated as follows: July 2, 1662; one in 1664; and the last, the 2d of December, 1670. There is no record of her death which has been found; she must have lived to reach the age of 67 at all events, and she must have died at some time between Dec. 2, T670, — the date of the last notice of her, — and Aug. 14, 1671, the date on which John Upham appears to be about contracting the marriage with Katherine Hollard. Concerning John Upham's son Nathaniel, who is first men- tioned as age 5, in the passenger list from England, there is the following information: He is afterward mentioned on the 4d. 2mo., 1654; and next Dec. i, 1656; and in both these cases his name is mentioned in connection with that of his father, they as witnesses that certain testators are in sound mind, in fit condition to dispose of property, etc.; then at his marriage, viz.: " Marriages at Cambridge. " " Nathaniel Upham and Elizabeth Steadman, married March 5th, 1661-2." Immediately after which is found the record of his death. " Deaths at Cambridge." " Nathaniel Upham, March ye 20th, 166 1-2." He appears to have been a minister. It is recorded in the Rox- bury church chronicles, that in " March, 1661, Mr. Upham, who sometimes preached in Maiden, died in Cambridge." That he was a minister, also appears to be evident from the following ex- tract taken "from the inventory of his goods and chattels: "By 13 bands and 10 pair of band strings, By a parcel of books of Mr. Brooks, By another parcel of books. By a parcel of Latin books. By a citherr and case to it." That he was the person who married Elizabeth Steadman, and the son of Deacon John Upham, of Maiden, is proven by a deed, soon after executed by John Upham, and of which the following is an extract: "and especially for the dear love and affection I Upham Genealogy. 4> have unto my beloved daughter, Elizabeth Upham, the relict widow of my son, Nathaniel Upham, deceased, have given," etc. Dated July 2, 1662. There was no issue from this marriage; and the widow married Henry Thompson, in 1669. The records of the General Court show that Nathaniel Upham was made freeman on the 23d of May, 1655; which would agree with the age of the Rev. Nathaniel, who would accordingly have been thirty-one years old at the time of his death. It is possible that the 23d of May was his birthday, and that he was born in the year 1629-30, on that date, in England; and if so, the fact may be useful here- after in trying to trace the origin of the family. The next one of the children of John Upham was Elizabeth, mentioned in the passenger list as age 3, in 1635. Mr. Wyman records that she was the widow of Thomas Welch, that she had thirteen childien and died January 12, 1705-6. This accounts for all the children mentioned in the passenger list. It may be observed that thirty acres of land were granted to John Upham at Weymouth, on the 12th of June, 1636; and from the number of acres which were allotted to each " passenger," and " half passenger," it would appear that there must at that time have been one more child than is mentioned in the passenger list. The next child in the family is known to have been Phineas, or " Phinehas " and " Phynehas," as the name is found to have been differently spelled. There is evidence which will be noted Idter, showing that he was probably born in 1635. He may have been born while on the voyage from England, or he may have been born shortly after the arrival of the family in New England; he must have been born between the date on which the passenger list was made out, and the date of the land grant at Weymouth. It has generally been assumed that he was born at Weymouth, and very soon after the arrival there. It has also been suggested that the scriptural significance of the name Phinehas, " the peace of God," may have indicated the feelings of peace and thankfulness, which followed the safe arrival in America, and so have been given to the first born in the New World. An account of this Phineas will be given later. 4S Upham Genealogy. There were also two daughters, born in this country; Mary and Priscilla; according to the record of Mr. Wyman, Mary was the first wife of John Whittemore, and died June 27, 1677, having six children; Priscilla was the wife of Thomas Crosswell, and died a widow in 17 17, having twelve children. Her gravestone records the age of Priscilla Croswell as 75, and the date of her death as Dec. 8, 1 7 17; this would make her birth in 1643. It also appears that John Upham had an adopted son, whose name was John, as is shown by the following record, dated June 19, t66o, viz.: " John Upham, of Maiden, presenting to this court his request, referring to a lad 12 years of age, called John Upham, who being about 8 years since brought from the Island of Barbadoes father- less and friendless, was by the magistrates committed to the said Upham's care and provision, he receiving with him only to the sum of j£t, an inventory whereof he sayeth he then exhibited upon the registry at Cambridge. This court considering the premises, with the consent of the said John Upham, Jr., being present in court, do order," etc., etc. This was probably the John Upham who was admitted freeman in 1688, as at that time he would have been about twenty-one years of age. The end of this adopted son, as shown by p. 55, Middlesex Wills, Liber 5, was as follows: " John Upham, of Charlestown, being weak in body, but of good understanding, he desired that God would be merciful to his soul. He desired me, John Mou- sell, to see him decently interred, and to look after his estate for my daughter Elizabeth Mousell, his espoused wife. He deceased the 25th of Nov. 1677. His musket he gave to young Phineas Upham, son of the Lieutenant." His gravestone, at Charlestown, shows the following record: "John Upham died Nov. 25, 1677, JE. 30." In the record of births and deaths, it is stated that he died of small-pox. John Upham, Senior, died at Maiden on the 2Sth of February, 1 68 1. His gravestone may be still seen in the old burying- ground at Maiden. It is very near to Bell Rock Station, on the •; I. "i I r Upham Gknialooy. 49 Saugus branch of the Boston and Maine Railroad, Eastern Division. There are gravestones of several of his descendants, and name, also to be seen there, in a fair state of preservation. A street has been cut through a part of the ground, and it is probable that some of these graves have been obliterated in this way. The stone which marks the grave of John Upham has the following inscription: " Here Lyes the body of John Upham, Aged 84, died Feb. 25, 1681." As already mentioned he was probably 81, rather than 84, at his death. Dr. Albert G. Upham, in the " Notices of John Upham, and his Descendants," pays the following tribute to his memory; a literal copy of which is here reproduced. In reading it it may be well to remember that it was written in 1845, and that Dr. Upham wrote without the benefit of the information which has since been obtained with reference to the Hull colony, and which appears in the previous pages of this book. It is possible that this additional knowledge might have made some slight difference — had he pos- sessed it — in his references to the age of John Upham, and per- haps some other matters. " The character of John Upham appears in a clear light from the facts recorded in the preceding pages. At the age of 38, within fifteen years of the first settlement of Plymouth, he sought an asylum for himself and family in this country. We thus see him in early manhood exhibiting his energy of character, and the clearness and vigor of his intellectual powers, in the act of re- signing kindred, friends and country, for God and liberty. In this great act his spirit bears witness of itself. In addition to this, we find him, on his arrival here, approved by his countrymen, as he was the same year chosen a delegate to their highest Assembly, and for six different sessions continued their representative, when fearless piety, integrity and wisdom were regarded as essential to office. On his removal to Maiden, thirteen years afterwards, he 7 i: —-S%''' so I i. Upham Genealogy. became at once, and continued through life, a leading citizen of that town, and was repeatedly elected to various offices in their gift. The General Assembly also manifest a corresponding confi- dence in him, by appointing him six time Commissioner to settle the lesser legal matters of Weymouth and Maiden. " During the short period that the town records are extant, it appears that he was eight years selectman, and three years moder- ator of the town meetings. He was a commissioner to treat with the Indians, and was a pioneer, not only in the first settlement of Weymouth and Maiden, but actively interested in the settlement of Worcester. " It will likewise be seen, from the frequency with which he was called to settle estates, and to manage the affairs of widows and orphans, that he was esteemed a man of carefulness and kindness in the discharge of those important trusts. "Finally, the Church, in a highly religious community, setteth its seal the seal of her testimony upon him, by selecting him for the office of Deacon, — which office he held for at least twenty- four years. " His sons he educated for the service of his country: the one became a minister of the gospel, the other an officer in the army. In all his domestic relations there is reason to believe him a man esteemed and beloved. " Nature seems to have endowed him with a vigorous constitu- tion; for, at the age of 83, but a few months before his decease, he discharged the laborious duties of moderator, thus showing that he enjoyed at that time full activity of mind and body. "We need only add that, through his long life, matured by an experience of thirty-eight years in England, and forty-six in this country, in times which drew largely on the intellect and energy of men, he appears to have sustained himself well, as a strongman and respected citizen, and to have been in efficient co-laborer among those who, in times of peril, laid the foundations of a free State. k..

He has always been known as Lieutenant Phineas, for the reason that he held that rank, and rendered important service in the Indian war with King Philip, as will be later shown. It is probably safe to conclude — for reasons already given — that he was born in 1635, and at Weymouth; besides the reasons men- tioned> it also appears that on the 21st of December, 167 1, while giving his testimony before a civil magistrate, he stated his age as thirty-six; all these facts would establish his birth at some date in the year 1635, though no record of it has been found. The following is a record of his marriage, which appears to have taken place when he was twenty- three years of age, and on the 14th of April, 1658, as per Middlesex Wills, Liber I, p. 24, viz.: "Marriages in Maiden." "Phineas Upham and Ruth Wood, 14 d. 2 m. '58, — by me, Richard Russell." In 1663, the records at Maiden show that a lot of land was con- veyed to him; also that there was another lot of land conveyed to him in 1664. In 1688 he was appointed an appraiser of a certain piece of property. In 167 1 a deposition was taken by him, on the 2ist of December — already referred to, viz.: " I Phineas Upham, aged 36, testify and say, that sometime in the 7 month of this year, I being occasionally with our select men, and // 1 Ik t I 54 Jv Upham Genealogy. they having called John Pemberton before them, did reprove him for mis-spending his time, and for other misdemeanors," etc. He was constable for that year. In the next year, 1672, there was another conveyance of land to him. In 1673 he was appointed with three others to survey a road from Cambridge to Maiden. In 1674 his name is signed to two inven- tories made by him, and to a petition in regard to lands in Worces- ter; he was also on a committee to alter highways, in April of that year. As early as 1672, he was interested in the settlement of the town of Worcester, which fact appears from the following extract from Lincoln's History of Worcester : " A lot granted to Phineas Upham, July 8th, 1673, was now de- scribed and located; and although it should contain more than fifty acres, yet the committee have confirmed it to him for a fifty icre lot, moie or less; and this they did, upon a rule of equity, in consideration of the labor, travel and activity of the said Upham, from time to time, in furthering, advancing and encouraging the settlement of the plantation. " In April, 1675, the lot of fifty acres, granted to Phineas Up- ham, of Maiden, was surveyed, confirmed and recorded, and it was described as lying in the west squadron, or division, on the south side of the country road." The author of the History of Worcester, in speaking of the progress of that settlement, states that " Ephraim Curtis, who had already built; Thomas Hall, Simon Meyling, Phineas Upham," etc., "had arrived in the month of April, 1765." It seems, however, that in June of that year — as per the Supreme Court Records — Phineas Upham was one of the jury for trials in the court held at Charlestown. About this time he must have received a commission as a lieu- tenant, though the record of his appointment has not been found. He certainly held that rank as early as September, 1675, which is proven by the following extract from a postscript of a letter to Major John Pynchon, dated Sept. 4, 1675: '' \'^ Upham Genealogy. 55 " Sir: We have ordered Lieut. Upham to lead up to you thirty men; and do farther order that Lieut. Seill be dismissed home to his family, and his soldiers to make up ye companies as the chief commander shall order, and the above named Lieut. Upham to be under Captain Wayte." (Military Records, Liber I, p. 280.) He could not have been for a very long time under the command of Captain Wayte, for twenty days later — on the 24th of Septem- ber, the same year — he was on his march into the Nipmuck coun- try, in company with Captain Gorham, one of the Plymouth offi- cers. The account of this expedition is contained in a letter from Lieut. Upham, on file in the Military Records, Lib. I, p. 276, viz.: " From Mendon, ye ist of Octobr, 1675. " Honor'd Gouvner and Counsill, " These are to certify to your worships that Capt. Gorum with myself, and our soldiers of both companies are in good health at prest. through mercy; and to give your honors an account of our severall marches: First, we marched to Mendon on the sixth day of the week at night, being the 24th of Sept.; and, on the 2Sth day, we marched from Mendon in to Hassanamissit, (now Grafton,) hoping there to have had an Indian for our guide, but the Indians were all gone from thence, and we were thereby disappointed of our expectations; and on the next day we marched unto Paka- choug, (now Worcester,) where we found a field of good corn, and well formed, which we did think convenient not to destroy, concluding that, for aught we knew, some of the nearest found in- habitants would be willing to save it ; but we could not find any Indians, neither the sign of any being there of late, and we marched from thence unto Manchang (now Oxford), and Cha- banamagum (now Dudley), where we found some cornfields and some wigwams, which corn and wigwams we burnt and destroyed, but could not find our enemies, which was a great discouragement to us, having taken so much pains to find them. Then we returned and marched to an Indian plantation called Shockologaud, where we could not find any Indians, but found a quantity of good corn, which we did not destroy, but reserved it at the request of some m I. i.. Uphaii Genealogy. of Mendon, who thought to fetch it home for their own use, and from thence we came to Mendon on the 30th of Sept. " Now, seeing in all our marches we find no Indians, we verily think they are drawn together into great bodies far remote from these parts. If your honors please to send us on any farther service, I hope we shall not be unwilling, but forward to do our uttermost endeavors, withall desiring that you should be pleased to add to our numbers, seeing that besides the garrison men which must be left here in the garrison, we have but thirty men besides myself, — Capt. Gorum being now on his march to Mount Hope, and, if we go farther, we desire we may have a surgeon, and some other that may be acquainted with the woods where you may send us — the want of which has been a discouragement to our men. " And as for the town of Mendon I am desired to commend the desolate condition of them unto your honors, several of their inhabitants being removed from them, and those in garrison being but poor helps, and in number but twelve men, with their arms very defective. The plantation is very remote, and there- fore so much the more stands in need of help. It is likely to be a prosperous place, if it please God to put an issue to this trouble, and therefoie it is more the pitty to have it deserted by the people, who think it must be, if they have not some assist- ance. They hope that twenty men, well fitted with their own resources, might be sufficient, if your honors so cause; and farther, they desire to acquaint your honors that ye Indians of Hassanamissett, which your honors appointed to sit down with them, have deserted their own town, and so came not to Mendon; and so, not having any more to trouble your honors withall, I rest, " Your humble to command, " Phineas Upham, LefienantP From this it is shown that Lieut. Upham was at Mendon on the ist of October; and about the 9th of the same month he was with Major Appleton who had just succeeded Major Pynchon in the command of the Massachusetts troops, as appears from the follow- ing from an extract from a letter written by that officer — the date and place not given — " Yours by Lieut. Upham I received, i Upham Geneaujgv. SI J-' ■ as also yours of the Oct. 9th," etc. Farther on in the same letter he says, " there be now come in sixty men under Capt. Pool and Lieut. Upham," etc. He is again mentioned as one of the signers to petition drawn up by the officers of the army, and dated Dec. 4, 1675, but the place is not stated. His name also occurs in a letter dated in November, 1675, written by order of the General Court to Major Appleton, in which the latter is reprimanded for having exceeded his authority by " constituting Mr. PgjI to be captain in the com- pany whereof Lieut. Upham is Lieutenant." He was assigned to Captain Johnson's company soon after this, as appears by the fol- lowing petition: "Captain Johnson humbly desires yt his brother, Humphrey Johnson, (whom he pitched on for his lieutenant, and they, i. e., the Court, choosing whom they pleased, he most readily submitted to the Court's choice of Lieut. Upham), may be dis- missed, and not suffer by his (encouragement) that he should be his lieutenant." From this time he served with Captain Johnson's company. The Rev. George M. Bodge has published an interesting account of the "Soldiers in King Philip's War," in the New England His- torical and Genealogical Register, beginning in the January, 1883, number of that publication, and extending through a series of many succeeding numbers ; and in this there are several incidental references to Lieutenant Upham. This war began in 1675, and lasted three years; the first troops being levied on June 24, 1675, when the news of the attack of the Indians on Swansey reached Boston. With reference to the preparations and march against the Narragansetts, Mr. Bodge says : " After their somewhat disastrous campaign of the early autumn of 1675 in the western part of the colony of Massachusetts, the United Colonies, upon information that the hostile Indians with Philip were retiring towards the south and to winter quarters among the Narragansetts, determined to carry the war against this powerful tribe, who for some time had shown themselves actively hostile. The veteran troops were recalled and reorganized; small towns in various parts of the colonies were garrisoned, and an army of one 8 S8 Upham Genealogy. thousand men was equipped for a winter campaign. General Josiah Winslow, Governor of Plymouth Colony, was appointed commander-in-chief of the army; Major Samuel Appleton to the command of the Massachusetts regiment, Major William Bradford that of Plymouth, and Major Robert Treat that of Connecticut. War was formally declared against the Narragansetts on the 2d of November, 1675, in a meeting of the Commissioners of the United Colonies held at Boston that day." General Winslow assumed command of the Massachusetts forces on the 9th of December, 1675; they were drawn up on Dedham Plain, where they were formally delivered to him by Maj.-Gen. Denison. To the soldiers a proclamation was made at the time on the part of the Massachusetts Council, that " if they played the man, took the Fort, and Drove the Enemy out of the Narragansett Country, which was their seat, that they should have a gratuity besides their wages.* " On the afternoon of the same day they marched twenty-seven miles to Woodcock's Garrison — now Attle- boro. In the evening of Friday, Dec. loth, they arrived at See- konk. From Seekonk a portion of the command proceeded by water ; the rest of the troops " ferried over the water at Provi- dence," and probably formed a junction with the main part of the Plymouth regiment at Providence on the nth. On the 12th, the troops crossed the Pautuxet river, and reached Wickford on the 13th, where those who had gone by water from Seekonk had already arrived; the same day one of the companies captured 36 Indians. At Wickford there was a garrison house, and on the 14th, the whole command, excepting one company which was left behind to keep the garrison, moved through the neighboring country to the west- ward, where they burned the village of the sachem " Ahmus," de- stroying 150 wigwams, killing 7, and capturing 9 Indians. Scout- ing in the vicinity was continued with more or less effect on the day following. The country through which the troops passed seems to have been pretty thoroughly scouted by detachments from the 'Massachusetts afterward redeemed the promise made to the soldiers at Dedham Plain, and granted to eight hundred and forty claimants, including those of Plymouth, the seven Narragansett townships.

On the i8th the march was resumed, a small garrison remaining as a guard to the supplies at Wickford, and the troops reached Pettisquamscot in the evening, where they found the Connecticut troops, who had pre- ceded them; these troops consisted of about 300 Englishmen and 15c Mohegan Indians. Here the strong stone garrison-house they had hoped to occupy, was in ruins, having been recently destroyed by the Indians; a fact which had been discovered the day before by Captain Prentice, who had scouted the country in that direc- tion with his cavalry troop. This was a great disappointment, and increased the hardship they had to endure. In a severe snow storm, the whole force of about one thousand men encamped in an open field through an intensely cold night. On Sunday morning, Dec. 19, before day-break, the whole force moved toward the enemy's stronghold, wading through the snow fourteen or fifteen inches deep. The following shows the organization of the command as it moved out on that Sunday morning. Mr. Bodge — who prepared it — says it was " gleaned from all available sources." He thinks, however, that there were other officers — principally medical offi- cers — who went on to the field that dav ; but their names are not attested, as these are, by the accounts of the treasurer.

Of the troops of Massachusetts, the quota was 527 ; the number actually impressed was 540, including troopers 75. The returns made at Dedham Plain give 465 foot, troopers 73. The Connec- ticut quota was 3x5, and there was also a company of Indians, 150. Plymouth's quota was 158. . The Storming of Fort Canonicus or thb Battle at the GREAT Swamp Fort. The following is Mr. Bodge's account of this engagement as it appeared in the New England Historical and Genealogical Regis- ter for January, 1886: About one o'clock, p. m., the army came upon the enemy at the edge of the swamp, in the midst of which the Indian fortress was built, the Massachusetts regiment leading in the march, Plymouth next, and Connecticut bringing up the rear. Of the Massachu- setts tjioops, Captains Mosely and Davenport led the van and came first upon the Indians, and immediately opened fire on them — thus at the beginning gaining the important advantage of the first fire, which the Indians had almost always gained and made so deadly by deliberate volleys from ambush, as they doubtless pur- posed now. The Indians returned the fire with an ineffectual volley, and then fled into the swamp closely pursued by the fore- most companies, who did not wait for the word of command, or stand upon the "order of their going," until they reached the fortifications within which the Indians hastily betook themselves. 6a Upham Genealooy. 1 This fort was situated upon an island of some five or six acres in the midst of a cedar swamp, which was impassable except to the Indians by their accustomed paths, and now made passable only by the severe cold of the previous day and night. It is probable that the Indians depended principally on this swamp to protect them, though their defenses are described as having been of con- siderable strength. A portion of the high ground had been in- closed, and from a careful comparison of the most reliable ac- counts, it seems th >• the fortifications were well planned, probably by the Englishman, Joshua Teffe, or Tift, as Mr. Dudley calls him. Mr. Hubbard says: "The Fort was raised upon a Kind of Island of five or six acres of risini. Land in the midst of a swamp ; the sides of it were made of Palisadoes set upright, the which was compassed about with a Hedg of almost a rod in Thickness." A cotemporary writer (whose account was published in London, and is reprinted in Mr. Drake's publication called the " Old Indian Chronicle ") says: " In the midst of the Swamp was a piece of firm Land, of about three or four Acres, whereon the Indians had built a kind of a Fort, being palisadoed round, and within that a clay Wall, as also felled down abundance of trees to lay quite round the said Fort, but they had not quite finished their Work." It is evident from these, the only detailed accounts, and from some casual references, that the works were rude and incomplete, but would have been almost impregnable to our troops had not the swamp been frozen. At the corners and exposed portions, rude block-houses and flankers had been built, from which a raking fire could be poured upon an attacking force. Either by chance, or by the skill of Peter, their Indian guide, the English seem to have come upon a point of the fort where the Indians did not ex- pect them. Mr. Church, in relating the circumstances of Capt. Gardiner's death, says that he was shot from that side " next the upland where the English ente'e ' .he swamp." The place where he fell was at the " east end ol the fort." The tradition that the English approached the swamp by the rising land in front of the ■'Judge Merchant" house, thus seems confirmed. This "upland" lies about north of the battle-field. -»- Upham Genealooy. «S T Our van pursued those of the enemy who first met them so closely that they were led straight to the entrance used by the Indians themselves, perhaps by their design then to attract atten- tion from an exposed part of their works a short distance away. The passage left by the Indians for their own use, as before men- tioned, was by a long tree over a "place of water," across which but one man might pass at a time, "and which was so waylaid that they would have been cut off had they ventured." Mr. Hub- bard counts among the fortunate circumstances of that day that the troops did not attempt to carry this point, and that they dis- covered the only assailabK point a little farther on. This was at a corner of the fort where was a large unfinished gap, where neither palisades nor abattis, or " hedge," had been placed, but only a long tree had been laid across about five feet from the ground, to fill the gap, and might be easily passed; only that the block- house right opposite this gap and the flankers at the sides were finished, from which a galling fire might sweep and enfilade the passage. Mr. Hubbard's account is very clear about this, yet several writers have sadly confused matters, and describe the first as the point of assault. It seems that the companies of Captains Davenport and John- son came first to the place, and at once charged through the gap and over the log at the head of their companies, but Johnson fell dead at the log, and Davenport a little within the fort, and their rnen were met by so fierce a fire that they were forced to retire again and fall upon their faces to avoid the fury of the musketry till it should somewhat abate. (Captain Johnson being thus killed at the very beginning of the attack, and Lieutenant Upham being next in rank in that company, of course the latter com- manded his company from hat time, or until he was also wounded. — F. K. U.) Mosely and Gardiner, pressing to their assistance, met a similar reception, losing heavily, till they too fell back with the others, until Major Appleton coming up with his own and C.iptaiu Oliver's men, massed his entire force as a storming column, and it is said that the shout of one of the commanders that the Indians were running, so inspired the soldiers that they 64 Upham Genealoot. made an impetuous assault, carried the entrance again, beat the enemy frum one of his flankers at the left, which afforded them a temporary shelter from the Indians still holding the block-house opposite the entrance. In the meantime, the general, holding the Plymouth forces in resierve, pushed forward the Connecticut troops, who not being aware of the extent of the danger from the block-house, suffered fearfully at their first entrance, but charged forward gallantly, though some of their brave officers and many of their comrades lay dead behind them, and unknown numbers and dangers before. The forces now joining beat the enemy step by step, and with fierce fighting, out of their block-houses and vari- ous fortifications. Many of the Indians driven from their works fled outside, some doubtless to the wigwams inside, of which there were said to be upward of five hundred, many of them large and rendered bullet-proof by large quantities of grain in tubs and bags placed along the sides. In these many of their old people and their women and children had gathered for safety, and behind and within these as defenses the Indians still kept up a skulking fight, picking off our men. After three hours' hard fighting, with many of the officers and men wounded or dead, a treacherous enemy of unknown numbers and resources lurking in the surrounding for- ests, and the night coming on, word came to fire the wigwams, and the battle became a fearful holocaust, great numbers of those who had taken refuge therein being burned. The fight had now raged for nearly three hours with dreadful carnage in proportion to the numbers engaged. It is not certain at just what point the Plymouth forces were pushed forward, but most likely after the works were carried, and the foremost, ex- hausted, retired for a time bearing their dead and wounded to the rear; but we are assured that all took part in the engagement, coming on in turn as needed. It is doubtful if the cavalry crossed the swamp, but were rather held in reserve and as scouts to cover the rear and prevent surprise from any outside parties. When now the fortress and its contents were burning and de- struction assured, our soldiers hastily gathered their wounded and 1 Upham Genbalooy. 65 as many as possible of their dead, and formed their shattered column for the long and weary march back to Wickford. Reliable details of this battle are few, and only gleaned from casual references here and there, and thus many who have sought to write upon the matter, have quoted in full the story of Benja- min Church, who relates his own experience, and draws out his personal reminiscences with all an old man's fondness for his deeds of "long ago." The very small part he took in this battle is evident even from his own storv, and from the utter silence of other writers, especially Mr. Habbard, who knew Church, and commends him highly for his exploits in the Mount Hope cam- paign. No one can doubt the ability or cour ige of Mr. Church, but his part in this battle was simp' / that wl >n the fort was carried and the fighting nearly over, he went, with some t -rty others, into and through the fort and out into the swamp v..oi\ the trail of the retreating foe, discovered, ambushed and scti.tered a skiV'.- ing party of them returning to the attacV, i .sed a few of V.\^m into the fort among the huts, and was h -nseli severely wounded by them when thus brought to bay. I wish here to record my protect against the unjust, often weak, and always inconsiderate, criticism bestowed upon our leaders in this campaign, and especially in this battle, for their lack of fore- sight in abandoning the shelter and pro -isions of the fort, their sacrifice of the lives of our wounded men through their removal, and the dangers and fatigues of the long march, and their inhu- manity in burning the helpless and innocent in their huts and wigwams. It is well to remember at the start, that many of the wisest, ablest and bravest men of "^e three colonies were the leaders in this affair. A noble comiH .1" r, wise and brave, reverend minis- ters, by no means backward with their opinions; the most promi- nent and skillful surgeons the country a,fforded ; veteran majors and captains of Massadiusetts and Connecticut, with their veteran soldiers fresh from the severe experiences in the western cam- paign, inured to danger and experienced in Indian wiles and de- ceits ; against all these we have recorded only the remonstrance of 9 \v 66 Upham Genealogy. Mr. Church, who up to that time, at least, had experience in In- dian warfare only as a scout, and the record we have of any pro- test by him was made many years after the affair. And, again, from the standpoint of their conditions as nearly as we can now judge, it seeirr that their hasty retreat was wise. They were some sixteen miles from their base of supplies at Wickford (it is doubt- ful if they had noticed the Indian supplies until the burning began). There was no way of reaching their provisions and ammunition at Wickford except by detaching a portion of their force now reduced greatly by death, wounds and exposure. The number of Indians that had escaped, and were still in the woods close at hand, were unknown, but supposed to be several thousand, with report of a thousand in reserve about a mile distant. These were now scat- tered and demoralized, but in a few hours might rally and fall upon the fort, put our troops, in their weakened condition, upon the defensive, and make their retreat from the swamp extremely difficult if not utterly impossible, incumbered as they would be by the wounded, whose swollen and stiffened wounds in a few hours would render removal doubly painful and dangerous. Added to this was the chance of an attack upon the garrison at Wickford, and the dread of the midnight ambuscade, which every hour's de- lay made more likely and would render more dangerous. Thus it seems to me that from a standpoint of military strategy, the imme- diate retreat to Wickford was best. As to humanity, we must re- member the harsh times in which they were living, the contempt in which the Indians were held — first, as heathen, against whom war was righteous ; second, as idle ana treacherous vagabonds, with no rights which honest industry was bound to respect ; third, as deadly enemies, lying in wait to plunder, burn and destroy. Moreover, the very life of the colonies was threatened by this war; many thriving hamlets were already in ashes ; hundreds of families were broken up and scattered up and down, with the loss of all; fathers, husbands and brothers slain or in captivity, farms and homes laid waste, whole communities huddled in wretched block- houses, while the " reign of terror " swept them. Brookfield, " Beer's Plain," and " Bloody-Brook," with their outrage and car- t 'jSf - Upham Genealogy. f" 67 nage, were fresh in mind, and a few days before, the destruction and massacre at Pettisquamscot ; while even here at their feet were their dead and dying comrades and beloved officers. Is it strange that they were cruel, when now for the first time they came face to face with the authors of all their troubles in a fair fight ? By any candid student of history I believe this must be classed as one of the most glorious victories ever achieved in our history, and considering conditions, as displaying heroism, both in stubborn patience and dashing intrepidity, never excelled in American warfare. Of the details of the march back to Wickford very little is known ; through a bitter cold winter's night, in a blinding snow- storm, carrying two hundred and ten of their wounded and dead, these soldiers, who had marched from dawn till high noon, had engaged in a desperate life-and-death struggle from noon to sun- set, now plodded sturdily back to their quarters of the day before, through deepening snows and over unbroken roads. The general and staff, with their escort, got separated from the main column, lost their way and wandered about till 7 o'clock next morning, while the main body reached their quarters at 2 o'clock.* Dead and Wounded. By Captain Oliver's letter, written a little more than a month afterward from the seat of war, and considered official, we learn that up to that time the dead numbered about sixty-eight, and the wounded one hundred and fifty, in the whole army. Eight of the dead were left in the fort, and twelve more were dead when they started back to Wickford. Twenty-two died on the march, and before the next day, Monday, Dec. 20, when they buried thirty- four in one grave, and six more within two days, eight died at Rhode Island, and three others, making in all fifty-nine, if we reckon the *It has been estimated that these troops — besides Hghting the Indians from noon till sun- set — had marched thirty-three or thirty-four miles, through the deep snow, and in a snow- storm ; all of which was accomplished within about twenty-one hours. The roundabout route over which they marched from Pettisquamscot to the battle-field is estimated at fif- teen or sixteen miles, though it is about seven only in a straight line ; and thence to Wick- ford, after the fight, eighteen miles. (8 Upham Genealogy. twelve carried from the fort as a part of the thirty-four buried Dec. 20; otherwise, seventy-one. But the first estimate of sixty- eight is satisfied if we add the twenty killed at the fort to those buried at Wickford and Rhode Island, and conclude that the twelve taken from the fort were buried somewhere on the march. Of the Massachusetts losses we are not left in doubt, since there is still preserved in the archives a full and official return, which Mr. Hubbard gives substantially, adding to the wounded probably those whose wounds were slight and not reported at the time, and with some modifications to the list of the dead, though with the same total. The official list of the killed and wounded in the battle, includ- ing three of Capt. Gardiner's men killed previous to the battle, is dated January 6, 1675, and entitled: A list of Major Saml Apleton souldjers yt were slayne & wounded the 19th Decemb.

Of the Connecticut troops, seventy-one were killed and wounded according to Hubbard; and according to the eminent historian of Connecticut, Dr. Benj. Trumbull, seventy.

The grave of the forty buried at Wickford was marked by a tree called the " grave appletree " which was blown down in the gale of September, 1815. The wounded were sent to Rhode Island, and well cared for. Of the losses by the enemy there can be no reliable account. Capt. Oliver says : " By the best intelligence we killed three hun- dred fighting men, and took say three hundred and fifty and above three hundred women and children." Mr. Dudley, two days after the fight, reckons about two hundred; Capt. Mosely counted sixty- lour in one corner of the fort ; and Capt. Gorham made an esti- mate of at least one hundred and fifty. The desperate strait of the Indians is shown by their leaving the dead in their flight. Indian prisoners afterward reported seven hundred killed.* The conduct of the Mohegan and Pequod allies is represented by Capt. Oliver as false, they firing in the air, but securing much plunder. This ends Mr. Bodge's account of this famous Indian battle. Of the ground upon which it was fought, he says: "Saving the changes incident upon the clearing and cultivation of the contigu- ous land, the place could be easily identified as a battle-field, even if its location were not put beyond question by traditions and also relics found from time to time upon the place. It is now, as then, an ' island of four or five acres,' surrounded by swampy land, overflowed except in the driest part of the year. The island was cleared and plowed about 1775, ^"^ at that time many bullets ♦In the letter written "ly Mr. Joseph Dudley, two days after the fight — and which also ap- pears in connection wicli Mr. Bodge's account — he says ; " A captive woman, well known to Mr. Smith, informing that there were three thousand five hundred men engaging us and about a mile distant a thousand in reserve, to whom if God liad so pleased, we had been but a morsel, after so much disablement : she informeth, that one of their Sagamores was slain and their powder spent, causing their retreat, and that they were in a distressed condition for food and houses, that one Joshua Tift, an Englishman, is their encourager and conductor. ir ^v f r -wmkimM \ L f9 Ufham Genealogy. were found deeply bedded in the large trees; quantities of charred corn were plowed up in the different places, and it is said that Dutch spoons, arrow-heads, etc., have been found here at different times. There is no monument to mark this site of one of the most brilliant victories in American warf^re. The place is now owned by the Hon. J. G. Clarke, of West Kingston, R. I." Knowing that Lieutenant Upham was among those who were wounded in this battle, we know also that he must have been one of those who were carried that night from the battle-field to Wick- ford; he was accordingly at that place on the 20th of December. Of the character, or circumstances attending his wound, nothing is known, and probably never can be now; we only know that he did not recover from its effects. After the return of the army to " Mr. Smith's Garrison," at Wickford, it is stated that the dead were buried, anU the wounded removed to Rhode Island — the island in Narragansett Bay — after which several weeks were spent in " parleying with the enemy, watching and recruiting." The Connecticut troops withdrew, ad- ditional troops were sent from Boston, and Massachusetts and Plymouth held the field for a re onth longer. It is not quite clear from the account, whether all the wounded were sent at once to Rhode Island, as it would appear. Lieutenant Upham probably remained at Wickford for some time at all events, and it is certain he did not go to Rhode Island until the 6th of January, following, which fact is proven by the Massachusetts Archives (Vol. 68, p. 104), in mentioning the killed and wounded in Captain Johnson's company, thus: " Left. Phineas Upham of Maiden wounded eight, and were sent to Road Island January 6th 1675-6." (Old style — the year beginning in March.) How long Lieutenant Upham remained at Rhode Island is not known; it is probable that General Winslow left Wickford with his command, either on or about the 28th of January, and that they reached Boston about the 5 th of February. On this march they were reduced to such straits that they killed and ate many of their horses, and the march itself was known as the " Hungry March." But whether they carried their wounded at this time does not ap- \h Upham Genealogy. 7« /=-":>4 V'i pear ; neither is there any thing to show how or when Lieutenant Upham returned to Massachusetts. The next notice that has been found of him is that of his death, in October, 1676, as follows: '' Deaths in Maiden" ' " Phineas Upham, 8, '76." This record undoubtedly refers to Lieutenant Phineas, for there was no other Phineas to whom it might refer; though — as Dr. Upham says in the Notices — in his will Lieutenant Phineas Up- ham is spoken of as being " at that time " (the time of making his will), " sick at Boston, where he deceased," etc. This statement is also confirmed on page 56 of Hubbard's Narrative. The rec- ord of his death, as given above, is from the Maiden records of births, marriages and deaths — Liber i, p. i — and is probably much more reliable than the references mentioned. From what has been stated as to the evidences of the date of his birth, he must have been about forty-one years of age at his death. No stone bearing his name has been found among those of the other members of his family in the old cemetery at Maiden. Recently, however, Mr. James B. Upham (No. 439), of the Youth's Companion, a resident of Maiden, determined, if possible, to solve the question of his ancestor's last resting place. By the side of his wife's grave, he had the ground probed with a long iron rod, and became satisfied that there had once been a grave. By re- peated trials its outlines were determined, which showed it to be that of a tall person. A number of articles were found in the layer of organic matter, silent witnesses of the robe in which it was formerly the custom to bury the dead. There plainly had been a body placed at a remote time, ar ■ its position, at the side of Mrs. Ruth Upham 's grave, pointed ' out as that of the grave of hui husband, Lieut. Phineas Upham. It is probable that the widow, left with little means and a large family, was wholly unable to find means to pay for a stone, and the grave has until this day remained unmci.i. d. ^"on Hobbs calls a saint indeed, died this year, of stranguary."

Dec. 10, 1685, who d. Apr. 24, 1768. He is early mentioned as yeoman, and soon after his marriage he moved from what was known as Maiden Center to North Maiden, of which place he was one of the first inhabitants. In the year 1707-8, he is mentioned as "Ensign Phineas Upham," and was that year chosen a selectman, as he was also the following year, and the year 1709-10. In 1711-12, he was assessor. For the years 1725, 1726, 1728, 1729 and 1730, he was chosen moderator of the town meetings. He was again moderator for the years 1748 and 1752. His name also appears on the records as witness to various legal documents, as the will of Lazarus Grover, in May, 1715; and in 17 16, the will of Nathaniel Upham is witnessed by both the second and third Phineas Upham. His will was made in the year 1751, and as this document was lodged in the probate office the 29th of April, 1766, it is probable "!' i ;f £ =1 a> o Z3 >(, *> ,fi$f^'»^..^0'X. 79 o o 0) E that lib tieaw i ' ■ •*""* liw, "■ '-i ^'^ '!«*? cate he vas in liis 84th ...

His wife died two years later, at the age of 83. In the Notices, Dr. Upham says: " Mr. John Edmonds, of Maiden, an old soldier, now " (1845), " 89 years of age, informs me that when a boy he often saw Phineas Upham. He states that he was of medium height; his hair abundant, but of pure white, and his costume that of his times, viz. — breeches, cocked hat, &c. He used to walk about the village with the assistance of an ivory- headed cane, and he had a favorite seat beneath a wide-spreading tree, wiiere he was often seen reposing.

The following interesting account of the old house still standing at Melrose, formerly North Maiden, Mass., was prepared by Mary Elizabeth, the daughter of Orne Upham (No. 320), who was born in the house, and whose Upham ancestors have continued to live and die there since the days of the third Phineas. It is, therefore, the ancestral home of all who descend from Phineas Upham, Third, r - '•'»^''\4,' II , |(|■lftfl■l^ ftfri'-'' 6d Upham Genealogy. and for that reason should be of especial interest to such. This account was written in April, 1890, at whicli time the hoincicead was the property of Orne Upham. Our records say that Phineas Upham, the Third (so.i of Deacon Phineas, and grandson of Lieut, Phineas), was one cf the earliest settlers in North Maiden — now Melrose. Accounts differ as to the time of the building of his homestead. The dates 1695, 1698, and 1700 are given by different authorities, as the time when the land was granted to him. The old Maiden record says : " Phineas Upham and Tamzen Hill were joined in marriage, ye 23d of No- vember, 1703, by Mr. Wigglesworth; " so we may be sure that soon after the opening of the eighteenth century, young Phineas and his bride "Tamzen," were established in their primitive dwelling on the wooded crest of" Upham Hill." 'J'he original house must have been quite small. A family tradi- tion has taught us that it little more than covered the present cel- lar, which extends under less than half the building. A huge chimney — with a fireplace ten feet long, and :ih high as the main TO(//fi ()f the dwelling — rivaled the house itself in size. But it was not long before the family outgrew its narrow quar- ters. Then was the first building supplemented by such additions, that it came to be a large, substantial dwelling, thirty feet in length, and two stories high toward the south. On the nortij the roof sloped nearly to the ground. Later still (and yet so long ago that no one now living remerr^ bers it) the sloping roof was raised, so thdt the house is nearly two stories high on the north, to-day. In the jld garret the original sloping rafters may yet be seen. The front door of the house is away from the street on the south side. Crossing its smooth door-stone we enter a small passage- way from which a few stairs, with two square landii 3, lead to the upper floor. At the right a low door-way admits us vo a large wotii, eighteen feet square, presumably the " best room " of the house. Its low v/ainscot, and high mantel, the broad beams across the ceil- ing — but a short distance above our heads — and the long hearth of the primi^'ve fireplace — all point to the age of the structure. -1'xi Upham Genealogy. i^i On the left of the front entry is another room, much like the first. The center of the house is occupied by the huge chimney, and on the north are the smaller rooms. The oak beams are in many cases eighteen inches thick; and the walls are filled in with bricks and clay. The chimney is made of bricks of many different sizes, and clay instead of mortar is used. The fireplaces have been made smaller, within a century, but the original hearths — in some of which square tiles are placed — are still left. The occupants of this house through the various succeeding generations have all been tillers of the soil, though several have combined with this mechanical trades, as a supplementary occupa- tion. Its present owner and occupant (Orne Uphr^m) still carries on the farm, though but few of the original acres remain. 9. James* Upham (Phineas*, Phineas*, John'), of Maiden, Mass., b. there 1687; m.

(Her first husband was a relative of Gen. Putnam, " '76.") She was heir to Putnam estate in 1773, as per Essex Co. deed, with William and Caleb Putnam. Richard Upham was engaged in trading from Salem, along the coasts of Maine, Nova Scotia, and Cape Breton; was at the capture of Louisburg, where he lost his ves- sels and other property. He built a house at Halifax, N. S., then secured a grant of the township of Onslow, now in the county of Colchester, N. S., on condition of settling it; which was done with families from New England.

See further information of this general character in the record of the following generations of the descendants of Richard, of Onslow. rtfjf' Upham Genealogy. 89 ship of Onslow was made to Richard Upham, and sixteen others, for a certain number of shares, or rights; and to Francis Blair and thirty others, for certain other rights or shares, in all forty- eight persons. This grant was for fifty thousand acres, being the whole of the township of Onslow. It is dated Feb. 21, 1769, and is signed by Lord William Campbell, who was then Governor of Nova Scotia. Richard Upham died at Onslow, about 1780, having deeded his property — said to be then and still, the most valuable in the county — to his stepson, William Putnam, whose it, as per information from one of Richard Upham and his two wives descendants have inherited Richard Upham 's posterity, had: 61 I II III IV V Child; d. aged i yr., Oct., 1740.

Timothy Upham is mentioned by Mr. Wyman as a weaver, but it is probable that this, like some others, may have been owing to the fact that he had a loom in his possession, probably on his farm; he is said by Dr. Upham — in the Notices — to have been " a farmer in easy circumstances." In 1740 he was chosen with James Green to put into execution a new law for the better pres- ervation of deer in the province. In 1745 he was made surveyor of highways. In 1749-50 he was appointed constable, and in 1751 he was executor of liis father's will. At this time it is probable that he became a member of Mr. Roby's church, then the third of I^ynn, but afterward the first of Saugus. This church was organ- ized and the Rev. Mr. Roby ordained over it in 1753, and its rec- ords contain the following entry: " Jan. 22d, 1759, the church consented, at the request of the church at Stoneham, to send two deacons and Mr. Timothy Upham to assist in the instalment of the Rev. John Searle." He died July 3, 1781, aged nearly seventy-one, and was buried in the old graveyard at Saugus. Dr. Upham says he was " of a character mild and generous, but firm and upright." His wife survived him many years and died at South Reading — probably at the house of her dau., Mrs. Board- man — on the 22d of April, 1801, of palsy, being at that time in her eightieth year. They had: I Lydia, b. Oct. 11, 1740; d. ae. i day. II Lydia, b. April 23, 1743; m. Benj. Grover, Nov. 11, 1767, and was afterward third wife of Eleazar Richardson. 64 III Jesse, b.

Katharine Nichols, also of the Upham blood, a great-granddaugh- ter of Lieut. Phineas Upham; she survived the death of her hus- band. He was a doctor of medicine, as appears from various evidences and from the following exf ^t from his father's will: "And the reason why I give my son Jabez no more in this my last will, is because I have given him to the value of a hundred pounds, in bringing him up to'the art of a Doctor or Physician." He set- tled at Brookfield, and there became distinguished in the practice of his profession. He also built a grist mill on Mason's brook, at Brookfield, in 1748. He was captain of the company from Brook- field which marched for the relief of Fort William Henry during the French and Indian war, as appears from the following extract from the Hist, of North Brookfield: "Aug. 3, 1759, Gen. Montcalm, with an army of 11,000 French and Indians invested Fort William Henry. Col. Munroe defended the Fort for six days with an effective force of only 2,372 men, surrendering August 9. Cap- tain Jabez Upham's company from Brookfield, seventy men, not having intelligence of the surrender, marched from Brookfield for the relief of Col. Munroe, on the 9th of August, 1757 (the date of the surrender), and were out 17 days." He also represented Brookfield in the General Court during the years from 1756 to 1760, inclusive. He died in his forty-fourth year, as appears from the inscription on his gravestone, a horizontal tablet, at Brook- field, viz.: " Beneath this stone lie deposited the remains of Doctor Jabez Upham the cheerful applycation of whose distin- guished abilities for the good of mankind rendered him 9'^ ■ !,■■<. :]'-;-'/ Upham Genealogy. 93 f ii*'i^/ ll ■{'■ a useful member not only of the court of which he was some years but especially in the practice of physick in which his success demonstrated his skill but as no age or condition of life is free from the arrest of death he was called in the midst of his usefulness to leave this world and departed this life November 4th 1760 in the forty fourth year of his age — Hope humbly then with trembling pinions sou Wait the great teacher death and God adore." The gravestone of his wife Katharine is also at Brookiield, and bears the following inscription: " Here was buried Mistress Katharine Upham, who died March 12, 1774 aged 52, the widow of Dr. Jabez Upham who died Nov. 4, 1760."

He was graduated at Harvard, 1734, and ordained pastor of the Baptist Church at West Springfield, 1740, by Rev. John Callender, of Newport, and Rev. Jeremiah Condy, of Boston; he resigned his pastorate at Spring- field in 1748 and moved to Newport, R. I., where he became pas- tor of the First Baptist Church, remaining as such until 1771, when he resigned and returned to West Springfield. After Mr. Upham left Springfield in 1748 the Baptist Church at that place was disbanded, and in 1763 the Congregational Church was com- posed of a portion of those who had originally been members of the Baptist Church. After his return to Springfield he gathered his scattered flock and began to preach to them in his own house. Upham Genealogy. 9S le u- of ir- d. i; re 9- I n )f a It 3t [> He continued to preach until he was eighty years old, and was an open communion Baptist. His home was in Feeding Hills parish, at West Springfield, where he owned a farm, upon which he lived. About five years before his death he was taken with a disorder with which he was confined to his bed for the rest of his life. He died at West Springfield, Oct. 5, 1797. He had the friendship of the Rev. Dr. Lathrop, the Congregational minister at the same place, who preached his funeral sermon from Job xlii, 7 : " So Job died, being full of days." By those who knew him he was considered a man of ability and learning. He was one of the board of Fellows of Rhode Island College (now Brown University) from 1764 to 1787. The Rev. Dr. Ezra Stiles, president of Yale College, who lived in Newport in early life, left the following entry in his diary under date of April 19, 1771: "Rev. E.

Benjamin Allen, of Falmouth (Portland), April ai, 175s ; ohe d. in 58th year, Jan., 1785. He was graduated at Har- vard College in 1744, and was a Congregational minister ; he was ordained pastor of the church at Truro, on the aQth of October, 1755. Rich's " Truro, Cape Cod, or Land Marks and Sea- marks," beginning on p. 343, has the following, with reference to the Rev. Caleb Upham : " His ministry in Truro covered the en- tire period of the Revolutionary war, which tried the souls of the Cape people, perhaps more than those of any other place in the country. Mr. Upham was a stanch and uncompromising patriot. He entered bravely into the work of sustaining the Colonies, greatly encouraged his people in public and in private, sympa- thized with them in their great losses, sufferings and struggles, and as we have seen by the records," — shown on previous pages of the same book — " was associated with the citizens in the most important committees. In 1775, he generously relinquished fifty pounds of his salary for the poor. Dr. Freeman pays the follow- ing tribute to his memory : '"Mr. Upham was a good scholar, an animated preacher, a warm friend to his country, and an honest man. He left behind him a poem in manuscript, the subject of which was taken from the book of Job. He was ever attentive to the real good of his people, and exerted himself with zeal and fidelity in their service.' " There were added to the church during his ministry two hun- dred and eighty-six. I have no account of his family, except his son, Benjamin Allen, born in 1756, at Truro. For many years he was a prominent citizen, selectman, etc. His name has been, and I trust will continue to be, borne by every generation in Truro. Captain Caleb Upham Crozier, a well-known, enterprising ship- master, of Provincetown, died in Calcutta, where a substantial monument commemorates his name. Caleb Upham Crozier, a retired master mariner, is now living in North Truro. There may be others bearing the name." The following inscriptions are from gravestones at Truro : In memory of Mrs. Priscilla Upham, r.he amiable and pious consort of the Rev.

It is well to remember these facts in connection with the pos- terity of Jonathan Upham, above, as well as with that of the variousUphams originating in the several places mentioned.

Captain William' Upham (Ezekiel*, John', Phineas*, John'), of Westminster, Vt., b. at Maiden (according to informa- tion given by his descendants, but as he was born after his father Ezekiel settled at Sturbridge, it would seem natural to conclude that William was born at Sturbridge, in the absence of special in- formation to the contrary), Oct. 29, 1738; m. Elizabeth Wood of Charlestown, N. H., Oct. 25, 1770, at Springfield, Vt.; she died se. 54, May 8, 1804. The tradition in this family is, that Wil- liam went to Sturbridge with his father when he settled at that place, but that could hardly be so. He left Sturbridge, and went to Charlestown, N. H., where he met his wife, and where his first child was born, July 19, 1771; when this child (Joshua) was six months old, he left Charlestown and moved to Weathersfield, where he remained the rest of his life. He was the first clerk of the town of Weathersfield — elected at the organization of the town. May 19, 1772 — and in 1772, he bought a large tract of land there, on which he lived and died; he was captain of a company from Weathersfield in the Vermont militia, which rendered service in the Revolution, and for which he was afterward paid by the State. He represented Weathersfield in the Vermont legisla- ture, ?.nd held various other offices. He was baptized in a mill pond near his place, by Dr. Thomas Baldwin, of Boston, for whom the Baldwin church in Boston was named, some time previous to 1790. Hed.

(Mrs. Smith's information was given in 1880), viz.: " My grandmother told me, when I was very young, that grand- father was a man who had a large share of self-respect, and she never liked to question him; he was twenty years older than her- self, and she felt honored by the alliance. One or two incidents, illustrating his character, were indelibly impressed on my mem- ory ; she told me that we knew little of thunder-storms in my day, for as the century advanced they became lighter. One summer afternoon a terrific storm spread over the heavens; the workmen in the hay field followed my grandfather to the house for shelter, for all seemed to feel safe who followed his lead. They gathered in the large kitchen — ten or twelve of them — while the house shook to its foundation ; the children whimpered; the dog howled; all but the master were shaken with fear. He was calm; seeing the condition of affairs, he took his Bible — read a portion — and offered a prayer for protection; at once there was a hush; the children were quiet, the dog crouched at the feet of his master, and an awe crept over all. " Occasionally, when storms were protracted, and work was suspended, he would improve the time in this manner. Truly * the steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord.' ** My grandmother told me that a common petition of her hus- band in prayer was: * That there might never be a family by the n1 •I'" Upham Genealogy.

Some of his mother's people, the Trains, had moved to Bristol, Me., to which place he also moved, after the Revolution; it is probable that others from Athol moved to Bristol about this time.

Some time about 1830, an officer of a ship which had re- turned from Africa, reported that there were at that time, a father and son by the name of Upham, who were in the mercantile business at Cape Town; this was probably this Josiah, and it is likely his descend- ants may be found in that place, or region. 115 m Isaac, b.

Anna, dau. of Elder Francis Moore. (See Kidder Genealogy for complete record of this family to a very early period.) The dates of the deaths of Joseph Upham and his wife, Eunice, have not been found. Joseph Upham went to Dudley, with his father, from Reading, when about eight years of age, and continued to live there during the remainder of his life. His father gave each of his sons a farm of about one hundred acres, when they reached twenty-one years of age, and he received one of those pieces of land — a portion of the estate originally purchased at Dudley when Joseph Upham, Sr., first went there from Reading. He was eight years one of the selectmen at Dudley, and perhaps during a longer period. He was chairman of the selectmen five years. The following is an extract f rom Ammidown's Historical Collections, article "Dudley": "At a Town meeting in Dudley, 17th Dec, 1774, the town voted to appropriate the Province money in the hands of the col- lector, to buy a half chest of guns and bayonets; to adhere to the doings of the Grand Congress in all matters whatsoever; and to conform to the non-importation agreement. They then chose a committee of nine to see that the resolves of the Grand Congress were carried into effect." Joseph Upham was one of these. "August miim io8 Upham Genbalooy. 17th, 1779, Joseph Upham was elected delegate to the Convention to meet at Cambridge, Sept. 5th, following, to assist in framing a constitution, and a committee was appointed to prepare suitable instructions for his guidance."

Knowlton; another one of his daughters was the grand- mother of Sir Charles Tupper.) One of the great grandchildren of Nathan Upham says of him and his wife, as follows: " He was a great deal in the habit of hunting and roaming with con- genial spirits, who enjoyed themselves over a bottle of choice wine, when it could be had. At home he spent his time in reading a collection of books, large for that day, while his wife and sons ran the farm — a large and valuable one; and they lived well. His wife was a remarkable woman, of great administrative ability, and an excellent manager ; she was called 'Aunt Nellie,' and was at the head of the household until two years before her death, which occurred at the age of 94. I have a good recollection of her for about fifteen years; it was a pleasant home to visit: herself, her son Stephen, his wife and four children, the daughters Sarah, Zeviah, and Abby, lived a harmonious and happy family. They were kind and cheerful, never rude or boisterous, and it was a .ijr-M. i'sniiiiMma[r.,tr , -,.l iia Upham Genkaloov. home for all the connections — all were welcome; while in intelli- gence tlicy were superior to their surroundings."

In 1, .'2, he was ordained minister of the First Congregational Church at Deerfield, being then 24 years of age, and was the first minister settled at that place. He remained at Deerfield during the remainder of his life, and died Feb. 21, 1811, of pneumonia. He was buried in the old graveyard at Deerfield, where his stone bears the fol- lowing inscription: 16 i \ I ,.■ V I 114 Upham Genealogy. SACRED TO THE MEMORY OF THE REV. TIMOTHY UPHAM, First pastor of the Congregational Church in this town, over which he was ordained in Nov., 1772, and was continued to them, to mutual satisfaction, for 39 years ; then this mortal put on im- mortality. In the joyful hope of a glorious resurrection, he de- parted this life Feb. 21, 181 1, aged 63. As a testimony of their grateful remembrance of his long and affectionate services, the Congregational Society to whom he ministered, have erected this monument. The following is the inscription on the stone which marks the grave of his wife, Hannah, also at Deerfield: HANNAH CONSORT OF THE REV. TIMOTHY UP- HAM, Who departed this life Aug. 4, 1797, in the 44, year of her age. If truth, love, virtue, each attractive grace. That warms the heart, or animates the face; If tears, or sighs, or ardent prayers could save The kind, the generous, from the silent grave; Then death, relentless, must have lost his prey, And with it lost his cruel power to slay One who shall rise and shine in realms above, Forever happy in her Savior's love. (Written by Elizabeth Champney Williams.) Dr. Upham, in the Notices, thus refers to the Rev. Timothy, his grandfather : " Rev. Timothy Upham was six feet tall, rather spare, but per- fectly erect. His hair was black, eyes hazel, nose straight and rather promment, and his teeth perfect till the day of his death. His voice was remarkably melodious and powerful; his enuncia- tion was clear and distinct. His mind was perfectly balanced, his judgment excellent, and his temper though naturally quick, was under perfect control. Distinguished for the rectitude of his character, for quiet dignity, and constant self-possession, he won the admiration of his people, while his hospitality and benevolence, extending to the very verge of his means, awakened their love and esteem. His professional duties were to him a source of constant pleasure, and were performed with constant assiduity. His teach- ings from the pulpit were chiefly marked by the exceeding care and anxiety which was manifested lest he should vary from the revealed doctrines and precepts of our holy religion, and be guilty f c iL Upham Genealogy. "5 f of preaching anything but the eternal truth of God. To this feeling was joined another, equally prominent — love for the wel- fare of the immortal spirit." The Notices also contain extracts from his funeral sermon, and various other matters in connection with the life and work of the Rev. Timothy Upham.

After the Revo- lution he went to New Brunswick, where he was judge of the Su- preme Court of the province ; his property in Mass. was confis- cated, probably on account of which he was placed by the British government upon the half pay-roll of a " Provincial Corps called ae BriTi" r i '-^-1 uOtaa .c.=: r' ii8 Upham Genealogy. the * King's American Dragoons.'

The following is an extract from the memoir of his son (Charles W. Upham), published in the Proceedings of the Mass. Hist. Soc, Dec, 1876, by Dr. George E. Ellis. " Joshua Upham was born in Brookfield, Mass., in 1741. He graduated at Harvard College in 1763. In view of the agitations and alienations which were so painfully active among the members of that class when, after their pleasant fellowship in the College, they in a few years should find themselves at variance in the en- trance of their manly careers, it is interesting to note the many names on the list which are associated with a remarkable personal history on both sides in the Revolutionary strife. There stand the names of the honored patriot, Josiah Quincy, Jr., prematurely called from the good service which he was so nobly rendering; of Nathan Cushing, Judge of the Supreme Court of Mass.; and of Timothy Pickering. These are conspicuous names on the win- ning side. There, too, is the name of a neutral or a mediator, — that of John Jeffries, who returned from his medical studies in Aberdeen, just as our strife was opening, in the British naval ser- vice ; went off with Gen. Howe, as surgeon to the forces in Nova Scotia, and also in Charleston, S. C; returned to England, crossed the British Channel to France, in a balloon ; and came back, in 1789, to practise his profession in Boston. The names of the college catalogue then arranged in the order of social rank. After the name of Upham came those of Jonathan Bliss — after- wards Upham's brother-in-law — and of Sampson Salter Blowers, these three being all refugees in the war. Upham and Bliss be- came judges of the Supreme Court of the Province of New Brunswick, Bliss being the Chief Justice ; nnd Blowers, Chief Justice of that of Nova Scotia. The last named lived beyond one hundred years before he was starred in tlie catalogue. Similar divergencies may be traced in tlie fortunes of the classes preced- ing and following that of 1763. They contained many prominent men, whose careers on either side were fond subjects of interest and study to the subject of this memoir, as they illustrated history and character. *' Joshua Upham began the study of law in Brookfield, and had ■von much distinction at the Worcester bar ; being greatly honored Upham Genealogy. "9 in his profession, and respected for public spirit as a citizen up to the painful crisis in his lot. It is remarkable that, while those who were driven to the royal side, as he was, generally accorded with the British policy in the suppression of manufacturing en- terprises in the Colonies, he was very active in promoting such provincial industries. In March, 1768, a meeting was held in Worcester of those who, indignant with the prohibitory measures of England, were in favor of advancing manufactures. The fa- mous Ruggles opposed the disloyal movement; but Upham ap- proved it. He, with his two brothers and other gentlemen, had built a woolen manufactory in Brookfield, and he had made efforts to introduce the manufacture of salt at stations on the "sea-coast. But he fell upon distracted times ; and there can be no harm in saying that, like many others in the country of a class of so-called Loyalists, who were at worst only timid, halting, or cautious, while sincerely upright, conscientious, and patriotic, he received un- merited harsh treatment. Committees of correspondence, of es- pionage and inquisition, became very active, sometimes overbear- ing and impertinent, in every town. The business which they assigned to themselves was to put the question of King or People to every citizen, especially the more prominent ones in place or influence. Hurry and dictation were offensive to some, who needed only time and freedom of action to bring them into accord with the popular movements. On receiving a somewhat imperious call from the committee of his town, for a statement of his opin- ions and purpose in the critical state of affairs, he replied by a letter, which is printed in Force's 'American Archives,' fourth series, vol. ii, page 852, dated May 20, 1775. In this letter, he says he is pausing to decide on the position which he shall himself take, until, after free debate and a proper deliberation, the ma- jority of the people have committed themselves to the one or the other alternative. He will not set up his private judgment against that of the people, but claims a right to express his own views and apprehensions to help in the decision of the question. Then he will acquiesce in the popular resolve, and take a common part and lot in measures designed to save the country in resisting the royal government, though he may think such measures improper, and not likely to be successful. In the mean while, he demanded free- dom of opinion, and security for person and property. But the intense feelings of the hour, and the humor of his fellow-citizens, would not admit of what seemed weak and cautious temporizing, and a timid mistrust of a hopeful cause. The coolness of treat- ment which he received, with threats or apprehensions of what might follow, drove him, as they did many others under like cir- ISO Upham Genbaloov. cumstances, to the protection of the royal sympathizers in Boston. This act decided his future for him. Without means of support for himself and family in a besieged town, he accepted from the British commander the office of supervision of the refugees from the country, and, soon after, an appointment as an aide on the staff of Sir Guy Carleton, subsequently Lord Dorchester, between whom and himself there continued a warm friendship. The clos: of the war found him at New York in the British service as a colonel of dragoons. He was among the proscribed whose estates were confiscated by the State of Mass. in 1778; and nothing but exile was before him.* Mr. Upham had married, first, a daughter of Col. John Murray, of Rutland, Mass.; and, on her decease, a daughter of Hon. Joshua Chandler, of New Haven, Conn. The latter was the mother of the subject of this memoir (Hon. Chas. W. Upham) and of several other children. The stately mansion of her father was afterwards long known as the ' Tontine Hotel,' in New Haven. A building of the same name succeeds it on the same site. Mr. Upham 's fine homestead in Brookfield long served a similar use. " Col. Pickering who as above stated, was one of those who dis- approved the summary measures pursued towards the so-called Loyalists, felt a sincere sympathy for his old college chum, Up- ham. In a letter he wrote to a friend in March, 1783, he says that Upham had expressed to a correspondent in Boston, where he had left a daughter, an intention of returning there ; and he adds, ' Upham is a good hearted fellow, and probably would not have joined the enemy but for his marriage connections.' After the close of hostilities, and during the long delay in the evacua- tion of New York, Pickering, who had hoped to have a friendly interview with Upham, which the hurried departure of the latter prevented, wrote to him from West Point, Nov. 14, 1783, a most cordial letter of unbroken regard and sympathy. To this Upham, on the 1 8th, replied in the same spirit of kindness and esteem, saying, ' I leave the country for the winter from pecuniary con- siderations, not from resentment.' " New Bruswick, which had been a county of Nova Scotia, called Sunbury, was separated and made a distinct government and prov- ince in 1784. At the first organization of the Supreme Court of *The State of Massachusetts, in Sept., 1778, passed "An Act to prevent the return to this State of certain persons therein named, and others who have left this State or either of the United States, and joined the Enemies thereof." The persons named, one of whom was "Joshua Upham, Esq.," were, under this act, if they returned, to " Suffer the pains of death without benefit of clergy." Upham Genealogy. 131 the Province, Joshua Upham was made an assistant justice, Nov. 25, 1784. He was also, with other refugees, on the council of Thomas Carleton, Esq., who was commissioned as first governor of the Province. The Judge faithfully and ably discharged the arduous duties attendant upon the tasks assigned to him, under the conditions of a rough country and a settlement among a raw and heterogeneous population. His brethren on the bench sent him to England in 1807, on a mission to the government, for se- curing a more complete organization of the judiciary of the Prov- ince. He met with perfect success in the purpose of his errand. He also made many strongly attached personal friends, among whom were Mr. Palmer, who bequeathed his valuable library to Harvard College, Sir John Wentworth, Sir William Pepperrell, and Mr. Spencer Perceval. The last-named gentleman, chancel- lor of the Exchequer, formed so strong a regard for Mr. Upham — who died in London in 1808, and was buried in the Church of Marylebone — as to continue acts of substantial kindness to the widow and children, whom the Judge had left with very slender means. The chancellor, a few days before his assassination, sent a considerable sum of money, — four hundred silver dollars, — with books and other valuable gifts, for the education of his youngest son Charles W. "Judge Upham 's house was on the banks of the Kenebekasis. The scenes around it, and the conditions of domestic and social life which it involved, were for several years rough and severe. Still, they had their compensations in the occasions for activity, enterprise, and sterling virtues which they presented, and were especially favorable to the development of good qualities in the children born and trained there by worthy parents."

This young man's name was William Wmniett, the great-grandfather of the husband of Mrs. Sophia Winniett. Joseph Winniett, his son, married Mary Dyson, by whom he had William Winniett, who was the father of Susan Winniett, who married the Rev. J. T. Twining, of H.ilifax, Nova Scotia, Chaplain of the British forces in Canada, and the grandmother of E. H. Twining of Chicago; and of Alexander, hus- band of the deceased, and of Sir William Wolsley Winniett, R. N., who died while Governor of the Cape Coast Colonies in Africa a few years ago. This is the oldest English speaking family in the Dominion of Canada, and the daughter and surviving child of the deceased is the only person now in Nova Scotia who bears the name. Paternally the late Mrs. Winniett is of American Loyalist descent, her father having him- self been a Loyalist. In 1783 he migrated from his old colonial home over the border, at the close of the Revolutionary war, in which he served against the revolutionists, to New Brunswick, in which province he afterwards lived and died, leaving a family of whom Sophia, the deceased lady, was one of the youngest.

Benjamim Marston was a relative of the Wins- lows, and at one time was sheriff of Northumberland county, New Brunswick. His diary has onl^yr lately been discovered, and con- tains much historical information concerning the times of which he wrote : '*New York, Thursday, July 12, 1781. " Lloyd's Neck attacked by the French, the party covered by a 36 gun frigate and the Romulus and some other armed vessels. *' Saturday, July 14. " The party who attacked were about 400. They were defeated by Major Upham who commands the Post at the Neck with some loss. On our side no one person was hurt. This Post is of im- portance to the Garrison supplying it with quantities of fuel — not- withstanding it was ordered a few days ago to be evacuated by ye troops who kept post there and but for the entreaties of the afore- mentioned Major Upham would have been left with some thou- sand cords of wood a prey to the enemy. " He was permitted to take post there with about 100 or 150 Refugees. With this handful aided by the crews of some vessels who were there a wooding he defeated the enemy who came to take possession of it. But notwithstanding the importance of the post, the people who have offered their services to keep it, cannot obtain even an allowance of rations — at the same time a very elegant musick house is built at Fort George and subscriptions are taken at Rivington's office at a guinea a piece to lay out a walk at ye upper fort for the use of the military gentlemen." In addition to the foregoing extracts it may be of interest to say that old Mr. Burnett, of Norton, N. B., who was at Lloyd's Neck, stated: " The Fort on Lloyd's Neck was defended by the Loyalists themselves. They used to go up the hill above the fort to cut the wood which was then shipped to New York, for the use of the Royal Army. To facilitate their work they constructed a slide, or spout, down which the wood was thrown as it was cut. When the alarm was given that the fort was about to be attacked, they hur- ried with all speed to their posts. The wood cutters, partly from the nature of their work, and partly from the exigencies of the times, wore sheep skin breeches. On the occasion of the alarm just referred to, a number of the men in their haste to defend the post slid down the spout, 'and I tell you,' said a participant in the affair, ' the leather breeches were pretty hot.'

Bethia Cutler, dau. of Thomas, of Weston, Nov. 28, 1 771, who was b. 1753, and d. in 8i8t year, Aug. a6, 1834. He was in the Revolutionary war, enlisted for three years in the Continental army, in 1781 ; after the war he probably lived in Vt., for a time, but finally went to Wood- stock, N. B., where he was one of the early settlers. It has been a matter of current belief among some of his posterity in N. B., that he was a Loyalist during the Revolution, but this is an evident mistake — the year of his enlistment, and his age are on the com- pany roll; this impression was probably owing to the fact that his brother, Judge, and Col. Joshua, was a prominent Loyalist, and also settled in the provinces after the Revolution. Jabez Upham was first engaged in lumbering at Woodstock; was at one time high sheriff, and also had the title of lieut. He was not suc- cessful in business at Woodstock, and finally settled in Kings county, where he obtained land, at a place which was given the name of Upham, which it still retains. He died at Upham, Aug. 3, 1832, in his 73d year. His posterity are still living at Upham, and vicinity, in considerable numbers. Jabez Upham and wife Bethia had: I Charlotte, b.

Miss Upham possessed beyond most of her sex, strength and understanding united to pure and elevated impulses of heart; endowed by nature with a mind of a superior order, and culti- vated as such a mind will become, in spite of adverse circumstances, she exhibited in society attractions re- fined with a just taste, and discriminating, though un- obtrusive knowledge. By an early bereavement she was left without a natural protector or guard, to meet and repel the frowns of fortune, and the cold regards of the world. With a clear perception of the obliga- tions which her situation imposed, and a persevering resolution to perform whatever duty required, she sus- tained herself when most would have faltered, and many might have fallen. She lived to meet the reward of her honorable exertions, in comparative prosperity, respect and attachment, and numerous friends. Her example is full of instruction and encouragement to those who entering on life with fair prospects, and high expectations, find them all, by a sudden reverse lev- elled in the dust. Her last illness was protracted and painful, but borne with that fortitude, which an un- wavering trust in the Being who gave her life, and from whom she had received so many liberal endowments, alone could inspire. To Him she cheerfully resigned her spirit, in the humble hope and trust that He would gu' ie it through the valley of death to eternal life."

Robert Upham was in early life in the milling busin-.-; and the first two years of their married life he and his wife lived at Brook- field, N. S. ; from there returned to Stewiack and lived one year; from the latter place moved to Folly Mountain, where they con- tinued to live during the rest of his life. Here he cleared a farm in the wilderness, upon which he made his home, the country at that time being very wild and almost unknown. For some time ^ after settling there they were members of the Deb^ Rivv."- Bap- l^* tist Church, ten n lies distant, that being the nearest church at the time.

He was for many years superintendent of the Chemical Works in Salem, and d. in Salem, July 20, 1858, in his 74th year. He was buried with his wife, Mary "'.ichols, in the old Broad St. Cemetery, in the family tomb. In 1885, his son (Rev. James Upham, D. D., of Chelsea) published an interesting little book, entitled " A Sketch of the Life and Character of Dea. Joshua Upham, of Salem," which contains a very full, complete, and excellent history of this family, including all the descendants of Dea, Joshua Upham. The same author also furnished the fol- lowing shorter sketch of the life and character of Joshua Upham for these pages : " Deacon Joshua Upham combined in his character many of the best qualities of our common ancestor, — independence, self- reliance, energy, enterprise, practical sense, and an all-controlling religiousness. He left the farm upon which he had been born, and where he had up to that time lived, at the age of fifteen, and went to Boston with the purpose of learning the trade of a mason. He was influenced in this decision by the knowledge that a relative in Boston who had attained to wealth and social position, had be- gun life in the same way. But before finishing his apprenticeship, the displeasure of his master's wife, at a thoughtless act of his, stung his proud heart to the quick, and, yielding to the foolish impulse, he quit his master, and left Boston at the age of nineteen. " He says: ' I found myself in Salem, not knowing a single per- son, with only twenty cents in my pocket, not a second shirt to put on, no trowel to work with, and half my money spent for lodg- ing and board at the Sun Tavern,' — afterward known as th^ E sex House, and the Lafayette House. " In a few years he became the leading master mason in tow . In his thirty-third year he was chosen deacon of the First Bap Church of Salem, retaining his office and discharging its dut ' with rare fidelity until his death — a period of forty-one yet The same year he was appointed superintendent of the Chemical Works of the Salem Laboratory Company. The latter position, too, he filled with great success, until, in his sixty-seventh year, he voluntarily resigned it. " Although a decidedly benevolent man, and never given to mere money getting — and at the same time bringing up a large family, on whose education he expended much — he left a competency at his death. His dominant qualities were integrity and godliness ; and his greatest wish in his children's behalf was for their spiritual prosperity, and their service in the cause of Christ. Three of his 22 I70 Upham Genealogy. Federal Sts. The tomb by him and grandfather mother and her parents, two families." Joshua children became ministers of the gospel, one a deacon, one the wife of a minister, and another the wife of a layman in Boston, who by his wealth, example, counsel and large ideas of Christian stewardship, has done perhaps as much as any one in that city to stir the churches to active enterprise in their work." In the family history already mentioned, the Rev. James Upham says: "Grandfather" (Nichols) "house, in which I and probably all the children older than myself were born., is No. i6 Cambridge St. The house in which all the younger children than myself were born is No. 148 Federal St. Here, on the garden, which reached to the river, father built three houses. The one into which he re- moved, and in which he died, is No. 17 Dean St., the one with the cupola third from Federal St. The old homestead was on the north-west corner of Dean and in which father was buried was built Nichols.

His eiu- cation was mainly obtained in his native towu, though in 17^3, he entered the academy at Exeter, N. H., where he remained six months. In 1794, being then in his twentieth year, he began a mercantile life at Gilmanton, with his uncle, the Hon. Nathaniel Gookin; but left Gilmanton in 1796, and commenced business for himself in Deerfield, remaining there about seven yearj. In the spring of 1801 he closed his business at Deerfield, and recom- menced at Portsmouth, N. H. In March, 1802, he removed to Rochester, in Stmtford Co., where he permanently established h'inscif in mercantile business, and of which place he remained a I ffiTA'i\ during the remainder of his life. In his business he was M #U times etninently successful, but his natural abilities and ffndenci( 1 eventually brought him into prominent public life. He represented Rochester in the State Legislature, during the years r8o/, 1808, and 1809; and in 1811, was elected counselor to Gov. /„(ngdon, of New Hampshire; in 1812, he was again elected to the same office, with Gov. Willianr Plummer. During th'' political excitement attending the approach of the war of 18/ j( /4, and the days of the Embargo, he was an active member of the 0(/f/'/sition, or Republican party, which strongly advocated a second war with Great Britain, sucii a war being thought un- necessary, and opposed by the party which bore the distinctive name of Federal. In 1813, on the passage of the act of Congress for direct taxation, he was appointed collector for his district, by President Madison, but he de'^lined the appointment. In 18/4 he was nominated for Congress, the ticket being headeo: — " Free American Ticket ! Union of the State — Union of the People. No Submission to British Re-Colonization ! ! United we Stand, — Divided we Fall." The opposing ticket contained the name of Daniel Webster, and that ticket was elected to the 14th Congress; bi * it was the last triumph of that party in the State. With the return of the New Hampshire soldiers, after t! close o' the war with England, the Republican party readily rega.ned its ascendancy in the political contest of 1816. Their Congressional ticket, bearing the name of Nathaniel Upham and five others, was elected to the 15th Congress by a lai'ge majority, James Monroe having been chosen President of the United States. Mr. Upham took his seat in the House of Representatives, at the open- ing of Congress, Dec. i, 1817. The following account of the ser- Upham Genealogv. 17s vices of Mr. Upham in Congress is almost a verbatim extract from pages of his son, Dr. Albert Gookin Upham's book, on the family history of this branch, already frequently referred to. In his annual message, which was transmitted to both Houses of Congress on the day after the assembling of the 15th Con- gress, the subject of Amelia Island was laid before them by the President. Amelia Island, at the mouth of St. Mary's river, near the bound- ary of the State of Georgia, was taken possession by an expedition of persons claiming to act under the authority of some of the Spanish colonies, which, at that time, were striving to establish their independence. The expedition seems to have been a mere private, unauthorized adventure. The island was made a channel for the illicit introduction of slaves from Africa into the United States ; an asylum for fugitive slaves from the neighboring States ; and for banditti, privateersmen, and smugglers of various nations. A committee was appointed in reference to this subject, of which Mr. Upham was a member. The committee reported on the 9th of January, in favor of efficient measures for suppressing the establishment ; and said in their report: " The course pursued on this occasion will strongly mark the feelings and intentions of our government on the great question of the slave trade, which is so justly considered by most civilized nations a practice repugnant to justice and humanity, and which, in our particular case, is not less so to all the dictates of a sound policy." On the 13th of the same month, the President, by a special message, informed Congress that the establishment at Amelia Island had been suppressed, " and the consummation of a project, fraught with much injury to the United States, prevented." The committee on Amelia Island also reported a bill, in addition to the former acts, prohibitinj: the introduction of slaves into the United (/// the yAii of January, Mr. Upham voted against the bill mak- ing more uti^At: provision for the recovery of fugitive slaves, which passed by a majority of 14 votes. Atiinna the most important of the votes which he gave during the session were, his vote Dec. 10, for the repeal of internal duties; on January "5, against reducing the pay of members from nin' dollars per day to six, and in favor of reducing it from nine to eight , on January 25, for the rejection of a bill establish- ing a uniform system of bankruptcy throughout the United States, which was lost by a majority of 12. On March 14 he voted for ff ,*- 176 Upham Genealogy. the following resolution : " That Congress has power under the Constitution to appropriate money for the construction of post roads, military and other roads, and for the improvement of water- courses ; " which resolution was passed by a vote of 90 against 75. President Monroe, on the 17th of Nov., 181 7, transmitted his annual message to both Houses of Congress. Mr. Upham was appointed a member of the committee on the illicit introduction of slaves into the United States ; which committee, on the 13th of January, reported an act in addition to its former acts, for the pro- hibition of the slave trade ; and Congress passed a bill authorizing the employment of the armed vessels of the United States to cruise on the coast of Africa, to enforce the acts of Congress prohibiting the slave trade. The question of the admission of Missouri into the L^nion being before the House of Representatives, on Feb. t6, Mr. Upham voted for the following amendment to the bill: "That the further introduction of slavery or involuntary servitude be prohibited, ex- cept for the punishment of crimes whereof the party shall have been convicted," which passed by a vote of 87 to 76. On the i8th of February, the House proceeded to consider a bill for the establishment of a separate territorial government in the southern part of the Missouri Territory — a territory which now constitutes the State of Arkansas. Mr. Taylor, of New York, moved to amend the same by inserting the following proviso ; " All children born of slaves within the said territory shall be free, but may be held to service until the age of twenty-five years," which amendment was carried by a vote of 75 to 73. A motion was afterward made to recommit the bill, with instructions to the committee to amend by striking out that clause. The vote stood 88 to 88, and was decided in the affirmative by the Speaker. Mr. Upham voted against the bill as thus amended. It passed by a majority of 2 votes. During this second session of the isth Congress the State of Illinois was declared admitted to the Union, and the President was authorized to take possession of Florida, agreeably to the treaty of the 22d of Feb., 1819. The 15th Congress ended on the 3d of March, 1819. The i6th Congress commenced on Monday, the 16th day of December, ?t8i9. During the second session of the 15th Con- gress, a bill providing for the admission of Missouri, which con- tained a clause prohibiting slavery in the proposed State, was passed by a vote of 87 to 76. On the ist of March, 1820, the House of Representatives again passed a similar bill by a vote of . Upham Genealogy. 177 V. 91 to 82 ; for both of which bills Mr. Upham voted. The restric- tion as to slavery was stricken out, however, by the Senate, and the House, at a late hour on the following night, agreed to the amendment, hy a vote of 90 to 87. Mr. Upham voted against the amended bill, which was passed by a majority of 3 only; and had every member of the House been present and voted, it is be- lieved the vote would have stood 92 to 92. This bill, as usual, provided for the admission of Missouri wlienever she should frame a constitution acceptable to Congress. The second session of the i6th Congress opened on the 13th day of Dec, 1820. Mr. Clay having resigned the office of Speaker of the House, it was not till the third day of an animated contest, and at the twenty-second balloting, that his place was filled. William Lowndes, a distinguished statesman of South Carolina, received 42 votes, and John W. Taylor 76, one vote more than was necessary for a choice over all the other candidates, and was accordingly elected. During this contest Mr. Upham's influence was exerted with effect in favor of Mr. Taylor. The next day Mr. Lowndes, of the select committee to whom was referred the constitution formed for their government by the people of Missouri, reported a resolve setting forth that Missouri had complied with the act of the 6th of March, 1820, and formed a republican government, and declaring her admission into the Union. Then ensued a strife equally stormy with that which had prevailed during the previous session, on the same subject. On Wednesday, Dec. 14, the resolve for the admission of Missouri into the Union was rejected, by a vote of 93 to 79. Finally, at the close of the session, Mr. Clay, from the joint committee, re- ported a resolve for the admission of Missouri, which passed by a vote of 87 to 81. During the whole of this long and exciting discussior, through three terms of Congress, and in which the public mind v^^as inter- ested to a degree without precedent or example since, Mr. Upham's vote was throughout recorded against the extension of slavery. He also voted, during this session, for a resolve, introduced by Mr. Clay, that the House of Representatives would give its con- stitutional support to the President, whenever he should deem it expedient to recognize the independence of the Spanish provinces of South America, which passed by a vote of 87 to 68. While a member of this Congress, he also voted for the admission of Ala- bama and Maine into the Union. In 1821 Mr. Upham was elected representative for the third time, and thereby became a member of the 17th Congress; S w 178 Upham Genealogy. that is, a member of the House for the sessions of 1821-22, and 1822-23. There were but few subjects of importance or interest on which the 17 th Congress was called to legislate. Neverthe- less, on the 23d of February, 1823, on motion of Hon. Charles Fenton Mercer, then jf Virginia, the following resolve was adopted by the House of Representatives : Resolved, That the President of the United States be requested to enter upon and prosecute, from time to time, such negotiations with the several maritime powers of Europe and America, as he may deem expedient for the effectual abolition of the African slave trade, and its ultimate denunciation as piracy, under the laws of na- tions, by the consent of the civilized world. This act was th ■ fruit of much counsel and long deliberation, and was postponed from previous Congresses, to secure more unanimity, in order to give more solemn and imposing dignity to this national condemnation of the slave trade, and the appeals in consequence to be addressed to the civilized world. Many of the legislator' who voted for this act regarded it as one of the most memorable transactions in their political lives. This measure, supported by Mr. Upham and by many others of the most patriotic and distinguished statesnier of that day, was passed, 131 members voting for the resolve, '.nd only 3 against it. The Congress of the United States having thus, of all the legislative bodies, assumed the initiative in this ma.ter, exerted its influence with other countries so efficiently, that the slave trade was speed- ily declared piracy by the law of nations. The 17th Congress closed its session on the ji of March, 1823 Previous to this, Mr. Upham had declined to become again a candidate for the office which he had so honorably filled for the last six years; and, bidding adieu to Congress and public life, he returned to the quiet of his village and the bosom of his family. There were many reasons why Mr. Upham wished to withdraw from public life. His health had been seriously injured by the climate at Washington, and by an attack of inflammation of the lungs there in the spring of 1820. He had, moreover, observed, that causes were in operation which must produce great and funda- mental changes in the political aspect of the country; that events, to which the then existing parties owed their origin, were begin- ning to lose their power, and the progress of time was developing new interests, which would again convulse the State, and become the source of new political organizations. Mr. Upham had acted an important part during these transition states of the Republic, and knew well the violence of the struggles which accompany the t Upham Genealogy. 179 change. Therefore, enfeebled in health, and needing repose, he determined to retire completely from public life, at a period when the political storm was yet distant. The storm came, but Mr. Upham, personally acquainted with the candidates for the presidency, and clearly appreciating the principles which they represented, chose rather by precept and example to calm the fury of political strife and soften the bitter- ness of party feeling, than to bejome personally engaged in the combat. He steadily pursued this course during the violent con- test between Mr. Adams and Gen. Jackson. In every position in which he was placed he maintained, with dignity and skill, the ground which he had taken. In 1828, the year preceding his death, his son-in-law, Hon. David Barker, representativ j in Congress from the district pre- viously represented by Mr. Upham, addressed the Whigs assembled at Rochester, on the anniversary of our national independence. His address was an eloquent exposition of the position of the par- ties at that time, and was followed by a public dinner, at which Mr. Upham presided. At this period political feeling was run- ning high, and it was hoped that Mr. Upham would take the occasion to designate his views in relation to the opposing parties. But this he avoided, and on rising contented himself with offer- ing the following sentiment: " Our next President," — an ^ pausing a moment till the attention of all was excited, he continued: " May he be a man who shall reverence the Constitution and the laws." A sentiment which instantly commended itself to all present, and was received with great applauoe. Early in the summer of i" 9 Mr. Upham was attacked with a bilious fever, followed by a.; -'ganic disease of the liver, which terminated his life on the mc .irig of the loth of July, 1829, being 55 years and i month old. He was buried at Rochester. Having reference to his relations with his fellow townsmen, and his general and personal characteristics, his son says: " In his local duties as a citizen, he was especially active in devis- ing good, and in his efforts for the prospective improvement of so- ciety. Throughout his residence in Rochester he had taken a deep interest in the promotion of education, and especially in the pros- perity of the viii Te schools. He procured for them the best teachers, and indu °d many co "ducate their sons, who otherwise would not havedO' so; and in accordance with his views on this subject, five of his own children received a collegiate education. " He was a firm and liberal supporter of religious institutions, and ministers of religion ev" found a cordial welcome at his I i 11 .•nr>iS««.««R i8o Upham Genealogy. home. He never united with the church; truly consoling, how- ever, were the hopes of his friends in his death. Some time pre- vious to his decease, having received a visit from a clergyman, he requested that he would pray for him. ' How shall I pray for you ? ' replied the minister. ' Pray for me as a penitent sinner,' was his answer — an answer ladened with hopes of heaven. " He was six feet and four inches high, well formed and per- fectly erect; in middle life his hair was black, his forehead was high, his eyes blue, his nose Roman, and complexion clear. Morse's celebrated picture of the House of Representatives, which was painted while he was in Congress, contains an accurate like- ness of him. " His character was such that, in whatever sphere he was called to act, he won the esteem of all who knew him. He was endowed with strong reasoning powers, together with a remarkable quick- ness of perception. He was also distinguished for his strength of memory; and would repeat numerous texts, with prominent por- tions of discourses, which he had heard in his early youth. He was fond of theological investigations, a taste for which he had imbibed while listening at the fireside of his father to discussions on doctrinal theology, so prevalent at that period. On all subjects he was a formidable adversary to encounter in an argument — an excrcisc to which he was naturally inclined, and which was pecu- liarly c-lciTlated to call out the powers of his intellect. It was a Ci-nu'-o). remark that no one ever worsted him in debate; for, if he foiled lo convince the judgment, he was sure, by his wit and skill at rep.\rtee, to win the applause of the audience. He possessed great foresight and sound judgment, and was distinguished for an untiring perseverance in whatever he undertook. He not only won the esteem, and was relied upon in a trying crisis in the country's history, as a leader among his own particular friends, and tuv.'ir favorite candidate for four successive Congresses, but he commanded equally the respect and regard of his political opponents. In all the relations of life his integrity was unim- peachable, and his death has left a void in the community which has been most deeply lamented." The following is a brief extract from the remarks of Dr. Upham with reference to his mother: " Mrs. Judith (Cogswell) Upham, who survived her husband several years, was admitted to communion with the Congregational Church in Rochester, May 8, 1831; she died on Sunday morning, April 30, 1837, aged 61 years, i month and 4 days.

He sailed for Europe in the autumn of 1842, to prosecute his studies in Paris, where he remained until the spring of 1844; then making a tour of the Continent, he returned and settled, in 1844, as a physician in Bos- ton, Mass., where he died after a brief illness, June 16, 1847. His death was a great sorrow to his family and friends, and a great loss to the medical profession. (The foregoing from the Cogswell Gene- alogy.) In Oct., 1845, Dr. Upham published the first that had ever been published on the genealogy of the Uphams in the United States, a small volume containing 102 pages, entitled " Notices of the Life of John Upham, the First Inhabitant of New Eng- land who bore that Name; together with An Ac- count of such of his Descendants as were the An- cestors of Hon. Nathaniel Upham of Rochester, I) i ( m Upham Genialogy. N. H.; with a short sketch of the Life of the Latter." The material which was gathered by Dr. Upham at that time has been the basis of all that has since been written upon the origin of the Uphams in this country, or any branch of them. But for the pages of this little book, it is quite positive this genealogy would not have been compiled; and those of the Upham posterity who are interested in this subject may feel that they owe a debt of gratitude to his memory. It is said that with his death went out a fund of valuable information concerning the Uphams which may never have been recovered. The N. E. Gen. and Hist. Register, Vol. i, pages 365-8, con- tains a biographical sketch of Dr. Albert Gookin Upham. The Rochester Courier, of December 14, 1888, contained the following with reference to this family: EARLY ROCHESTER SKETCHES. Twenty years ago there was a stately old mansion on Main street in our village, that was the pride of the older residents of Norway Plains, and the admiration of all lovers of the antique in house architecture. It occupied a lot nearly opposite the Congre- gational church, and for a quarter of a century had each morning smiled recognition to the old meeting-house over the way, or ever since the latter had taken its march from the common to its pre" ent location. The " goodly dwelling " stood back a proper . tance from the street, and was two stories in height, pamted wifi with green blinds. A fine old porch, built after that quaint fashion that house builders style " closed in," graced the front, and elegant workmanship was displayed about it, from the wide paneled door with its big brass handle and great knocker, also of brass, and fan-light with gilded blind, to the delicate railing on top. Over the porch woodbine wandered, creeping through the railing, while below on the old terrace, in front of the house, myrtle, the old-fashioned ivy-leaved, blue flowered, grew in profusion, cover- ing the banks completely, the starry blossoms in early spring ex- pressing their language of love. A paved walk of brick led in through the grassy yard up to the entrance door, where were stone steps, hammered in ancient fashion and as solid as the foundation of the old mansion itself. This, reader, was the " Old Upham mansion," as it was desig- nated by the villagers, and was to Rochester what the Governor Langdon mansioQ is to-day to Portsmouth — the finest of its early ( I Upham Gbnealogy. i8s m of in e- >g er tn It le residences, and which I did not fail to pass by on the occasion of my visit to the old town last summer, that I have never before spoken of in my sketches. Nathaniel Upham, who erected the Upham house, came to Rochester about the year 1802, and was an early merchant here, after people had begun to choose Norway Flams as a place for business mstead of old Haven Hill, the early settlement. That old place had begun to decline ; there was no water-power there, and here could be found the finest needed for grist-mills, saw-mills or for any manufacturing purposes. Yet what year Mr. Upham built his residence I am unable to tell, but it was about the time the Woodman mansion was erected, or a little later. Indeed, there is an old tradition that a man, name unknown to me, com* menced to build the last named and failed up. Lawyer Woodman and Upham both fancied it, but the lawyer "won the day," as lawyers usually do, when Mr. Upham declared he would build one that should eclipse it. His domicile was not so showy in the ex- terior, but the interior was made finer and the house was in reality the nicest one, the materials and the workmanship being of the best, the latter exquisite in the spacious front parlors. Mr. Upham was one of the old-time merchants, they used to be called traders then, and he kept in his store every thing called for by the public, from a gentleman's silk pocket handkerchief to a hogshead of rum. He was courteous and affable, and in this way drew much custom and trade to his store, which was some little ways above his house on the opposite side of the street. He probably entered the store previous to the dwelling, but he came, I think, as I said before, in 1802. He was a native of Deerfield, and had been nrith his brother Timothy Upham in his store at Portsmouth, where he learned the trade, for trade it is. In those times Rochester had a large trade with the up-country people, those who lived above the lake, and even to the Connecti- cut river. Portsmouth was usually their destination, though many went to Dover with their butter, cheese, etc., while others stopped at Rochester, particularly if it happened to be late in the season when they arrived, or the sleighing poor. I fancy there are many persons living in the village to-day who can recollect the long file of teams. It was like a procession, the strong horses attached to great pungs driven by thrifty farmers traveling together on their way to market. Alas ! they will be seen no more ! Mr. Upham's mercantile life occasioned frequent visits to Ports- mouth and also journeys to Boston, yet to the last-named city I think he went not oftener than twice a year. The journey was a 24 i86 Upuam Genealogy. long one then. It took much more time than it does now, but when the old-time merchant returned from the above-named bus- iness centers he had much interesting news to communicate to his customers, for he was a keen observer and ready talker, and one thing that I always admired in the man, he was not a jealous per- son and enjoyed a jest and a laugh. He also did not mind repeat- ing a joke at his own expense. In person he was tall and his limbs very long, yet he carried himself well and was a real gentleman of the old school. It used to be remarked that he was a " gentleman trader," while he always wore ruffled bosomed shirts like the aristocratic Portsmouth mer- chants, and enjoyed smoking his cigar every morning before his place of business. He was one of the first men of his adopted town, and was well and favorably known in the State. I think old Norway Plains never had a more public-spirited citizen or successful business man than " Squire Upham," as he grew to be known. He became interested in political affairs, and in i8ii-ia was a member of the governor's council. In 1817 he was chosen a representative to Congress from our first district. It wa- an honor fitly bestowed and he represented for three consecacive terms, from 18 17 to 1823, the old first district ably, faithfully and honorably. Of course he was known at Washington as Hon. Nathaniel Upham, M. C, from New Hampshire, and passed his winters at the capital along with other prominent men of the country. The store was kept running all the same at Norway Plains dur- ing his absence from Rochester, his clerk being a young man polite and obliging, named John Chapman, good looking and in- telligent also, who, I believe, came trom Northwood, a town near Congressman Upham's early home. Young Chapman afterward married Miss Louisa Barker, the daughter of David Barker, an early and influential resident of Rochester, while Mr. Upham's daughter, Mary, had married David Barker, Jr., who several years later was the congressman from the same district as his father-in- law, representing it from 1827 to 1829, and being one of Roches- ter's ablest, young lawyers. Nathaniel Upham married Judith Cogswell of Gilmanton. She was the daughter of Hon. Thomas Cogswell, and the family is one of honorable mention in our State like the Wentworth family. Mrs. Upham was a true woman, and a lady beloved by all who knew her. She is said to have been above the medium height and quite portly in person, with a kind, motherly face and pleasmg manner. As mistress of the beautiful Upham mansion her social t. -. 1 Upham Genealogy. 187 «*> i success was great. I am not certain that she accompanied her husband to Washington during his congressional career, but she was fitted to adorn any position in life. The Upham children were 1 1 in number, 7 sons and 4 daugh< ters, "They were handsome because they looked intelligent," says an old resident, and I think there is much in that remark to think about. Yet they were a family of great ability. One little daughter, Hannah Elizabeth, died in infancy; the rest lived to grow up, Alfred Upham was the oldest of the boys, and he be- came a physician known as Dr. Upham, and located in New York. I think he married a Miss Henderson, sister of the late Charles Henderson. Thomas Cogswell Upham, the second boy, was born in Deerfield in 1799, so Rochester cannot claim him among her famous sons. Yet he was only three years old when the family made our good old town their future home. He was the most dis- tinguished of the Upham children, and was sent to college by his father, who thoroughly educated every child, and graduated at Dartmouth in 1818. He became a Congregational minister, and for 2 years, from 1823 to 1825, was colleague pastor of our old Congregational church, the oldest in town, and the beloved assistant of good Parson Haven, who having out-preached his voice, eyesight and congregation, was glad to have his valuable aid in dispensing his ministerial duties. Years afterward, when he was a professor in Bowdoin College, Mr. Upham wrote out his " Pastoral Experiences and Reminiscences in Rochester," which were not published till after his death, and I think there lias never been any thing more interesting of Rochester written than those papers contain. He tells us how and why he went to board at John Smith's, the village blacksmith, who kept the village library at his house, and of Arabella, the beautiful daughter, who brought him the books he desired to read. We also learn of his visits to the farmers living in the suburbs of the village, old Farmer Hussey in particular, and of the meetings he held at the dingy school- houses in several districts; of his call on old Mrs. Welch, who resided in the vicinity of Meaderboro, I think, and was a reputed witch. Those papers gave one an insight into the manners of 60 years ago, and a deal of good religious suggestion and instruction. Thomas C. Upham was made Professor of Mental and Moral Philosophy in Bowdoin College in 1825, and left Rochester. Many years after he traveled in Europe, Egypt and Palestine, and he was the author of numerous books, having a world-wide repu- tation as a theological writer. His "Mental Philosophy" has been used as a text-book in our educational schools. In 1859 --j^^asfflgwn:::' \ t 1 88 Upham Gbnealoov. " The Life of Faith," by Prof. Upham, was republished in Eng- land, and the British Standard said of it: " The book is the man developed; the book is the man em- bodied. Every page bespeaks the high intellect of Dr. Upham. The book is a great treasure and we welcome the English edition as a most important accession to our experimental theology. Was not that high enough praise ? Prof. Upham was the author of some beautiful poems, and his " Song of the Pilgrims " will never be forgotten by one who has read it. I like best now that little poem entitled : THE LIVING-FOUNTAIN. I hear the tinkling camel's bell Beneath the shade of Ebal's mount And men and beast at Jacob's well Bow down to taste the living fount. Samaria's daughter, too, doth share The draught that earthly thirst can quell ? But who is this that meets her there? What voice is this at Jacob's well 7 " Ho I ask of me, and I will give. From my own life thy lips supply; I am the fount; drink, drink and live ; No more to thirst, no more to die ! " Strange mystic words, but words of heaven. And they who drink to-day, as then, . To them shall inward life be given, Their souls shall never thirst again. Prof. Upham died at Brunswick, Me., in 1873, aged 73 years. Another son of Nathaniel Upham was Nathaniel G. Upham, who was born in Rochester. He also graduated at Dartmouth College like his brother Thomas, but unlike him he was distin- guished for his legal knowledge, since he was a lawyer and a very smart one. He opened an office first at Bristol and afterward settled in Concord. From 1833 to 1843 he was one of the judges of the Superior Court. In 1853 he was commissioner to London " for adjustment of claims between citizens of the United States and Great Britain against the government of either country." After this he was general agent of the Concord railroad, remain- ing in that position nearly to the close of his life. He died in 1869. He had considerable poetic talent and wrote beautiful verse. The fourth son of the old time Rochester merchant was Tim- othy Upham, who was also a doctor, and a young man of great UPHAM GtNKALOOY. 189 % promise. He died soon after commencing practice, at Saratoga, • ^ • * • Joseph B. Upham, the fifth son, followed a mercantile life and was collector of customs at Portsmouth. Francis W. Upham, the sixth, is a resident of New York, and is known as an able theological writer. Albert G. Upham, the youngest boy, born in 18 19, graduated at Bowdoin College and completed his medical studies in Europe, while this makes the third doctor in the Upham family. He died in Boston of ship fever, and was buried at Rochester in the old cemetery below the village. Squire Upham was very proud of his boys and much pleased with their success in the world, and well he might have been. It is related that one day a customer, or villager, was at his store, when the old merchant, as if to enlighten him a little, with an air of satisfaction, said : " I have brought up my boys to look after my several interests. I have educated Tim to look after my health, I have educated Nat to look after my worldly affairs, and Tom I have educated to look after my spiritual affairs." " Well, I pity poor Tom," rejoined the customer. Squire Upham's daughters were Mary, Judith C, and Ruth. As I have already mentioned, Mary married David Barker, while it has been ably said, " She was a very able woman and full of good works." Judith C, her mother's namesake, married James Bell, of Exeter, once United States senator from New Hampshire. Ruth became the wife of Dr. John M. Berry, of Rochester, and lived after the decease of her parents for a long time in the ele- gant old mansion on Main street. Four members of the Upham family are interred in our old cemetery in a plot of ground inclosed by a light iron fence. The headstones erected to their memory are handsome white marble, and the inscriptions or epitaphs interesting to read. I have copied them for the readers of this sketch of the notable family: Erected in memory of Hon. Nathaniel Upham, who died July 10, 1829, Aged 53 years.

Timothy Upham received his first appointment in the army as major, in March, 181 2, and in July following received his commission in the nth U. S. Infantry. In June he was placed ■'II' "T* Upham Gbnbalooy, 19! in command of the forts and harbor of Portsmouth, with the superintendent of the recruiting service, in a district composing the southern part of New Hampshire and the county of York, in the State of Maine. " In September he joined his regiment at Plattsburgh, N. Y. ; in November, advanced with the army to Champlain, on the Canada line; from whence, after some severe skirmishing, and much suffering of the troops for want of suitable supplies of winter clothing, the army returned to Plattsburgh. The nth and some other regiments passed over to Burlington, and went into winter quarters. " Major Upham was soon after ordered to Portland to superin- tend the recruiting service of the State of Maine and in part of New Hampshire. In April, 1813, having, with the officers under his command, enlisted upwards of two thousand men, and sent them forward to join their respective regiments, he repaired to Burlington with the winter clothing of his regiment, the first they had received. There he received an order to select a battalion of five hundred men from his regiment and proceed with all possible despatch to Sackett's Harbor. This march was accomplished in fourteen days, with a heavy train of baggage for the army, via Johnstown and the Northern State road. He arrived there in May and remained there and in the vicinity with his battalion un- til October, when the army, then under the command of Gen. Wilkinson, was embarked in boats, with orders to descend the St. Lawrence and form a junction with the troops then under the command of Gen. Hampton, at some point on the St. Lawrence, above Montreal, with a view to a joint attack on that place. "Maj. Upham had, in October, 1813, previous to leaving Sack- ett's Harbor, been promoted to lieut.-col. of the 21st Infantry, Col. Miller's famous regiment, but remained with his battalion of the nth to the close of the campaign. In descending the St. Lawrence he had the command of one division of the boats, and passed the enemy's batteries at Fort Pr :;'5C0tt under a heavy can- nonade with very trifling loss, and proceeded immediately down the river to the head of the Longue Saut, a rapid in the St. Law- rence of several miles in extent. At this point the troops, with the exception of those required to manage the boats, proceeded by land, leaving Col. Upham in his division of boats with about 300 men, selected from the several regiments which composed the division. " On arriving at Cornwall, below the rapids, it was ascertained that the enemy were following with considerable force, and a I ii \ -«s:=«9?^ i »9» VrRAM Gbnialoov. flotilla of gunboats. In consequence of this information, Col. Uphant now received orders to place his boats in safety, land his men and hold them in readiness for such service as might be re- quired. The main body of the army, under Gen. Brown, having proceeded down the river, the enemy commenced an attack on its rear guard, under Gen. Covington, who, being pressed hard, Col. Upham was ordered to reinforce him. While advancing to exe- cute this order, he met the general mortally wounded, who directed him to press forward and report to Gen. Boyd. " On his arrival near the field of battle, known as Chrystler's Field he met the troops retreating for want of ammunition through the woods which skirted the field. Col. Upham was di- rected by Gen. Boyd to push forward and hold the enemy in check until ammunition could be procured from the boats. His division immediately engaged the enemy and held them in chock for nearly an hour, when he received an order to retreat and em- bark his men on board the boats, which he succeeded in doing, having effectually checked the enemy. " His loss in this action, in killed and wounded, was large in proportion to the number engaged, being nearly one-fifth of the whole. The boats then passed down the river to take in a large detachment which had proceeded by land and which had not been engaged. On arriving at the mouth of French Creek, information was received from Gen. Hampton that he was on his return to Pitts- burgh, having been somewhat severely handled by the enemy in the neighborhood of Chateaugay and fallen short of provisions. The object of the expedition was therefore defeated, and the army retired up French Creek to a convenient place and commenced building huts for winter quarters. " Col. Upham was now ordered to repair to the seaboard on re- cruiting service, on which duty he was employed till the July fol- lowing, when he was ordered to join the aist Infantry at Buffalo. On his arrival there, he found his regiment at Fort Erie, and he immediately crossed over and assumed command of it. Fort Erie was at this time closely invested by a force double in number to the garrison. After suffering a severe loss by the cannonade and bombardment, which continued without interruption for nearly forty days, our troops having been reinforced by a brigade of New York militia, it was determmed to try the strength of the enemy by a sudden attack on their works. Accordingly about the middle of September a sortie was made at noon, the enemy's works all earned, and his guns spiked before his reserve, which ■:■? ¥' in.: I Upham Genealooy. 193 ii wai encamped at some distance, could be brousht up. Our troops then retired to the fort. In this action tne loss of the enemy in killed, wounded and prisoners was over six hundred men; and our own was not much less, and included a large num- ber of the higher grade of officers — being the most bloody ac- tion which was fought during the war, in proportion to the num- bers engaged. The next day the enemy abandoned his works and retreated toward Kingston. The regimentwas much reduced, and Lieut.-Col. Upham's health having become greatly impaired, he was again ordered to the seaboard, and instructed to report to Gen. Dearborn, at Boston. " The command of the station at Portsmouth was assigned to him, but his health was so severely aflected he was unable, during the winter and for several months after, to leave his quarters. On the cessation of hostilities he resigned his commission in the army, and in the spring of x8i6 was appointed by President Madison collector of customs at Portsmouth, which office he continued to hold, under the appointment of Presidents Monroe and Adams, until 1839. In 1819 he was appointed brigadier-general of the First Brigade New Hampshire Militia, and, in 1820, major-general of the First Division. In 1841 he was appointed navy agent at Portsmouth by President Harrison, which office he resigned in the spring of 1845. He then removed to Charlestown, Mass., where he died November 3, 185^."

He was graduated at Harvard College, 1785. The following sketch of his life is from Davis' History of Sturbridge, and Southboro, Mass. " Jabez Upham was the first lawyer who practiced in Sturbridge; soon removed to Claremont, N. H., where he remained only a short time, thence went to Brookfield, Mass., where he engaged in his profession until the close of his life. Industry and perse- verance enabled him to rise in his profession. Fraud and decep- tion received from him such a rebuke as would not soon be for- gotten. His office was a great place for law students. He came to the bar when such men as Gov. Lincoln, the elder. Gov. Strong and Gov. Sullivan were constant attendants of the Supreme Court in Worcester Co., and who stood in the front rank of the profes- sion. The brilliant and elegant Francis Blake came to the bar about the same time, >" soon after. Mr. Upham sustained, if not an equal, a very respectable standing among such men as a lawyer and advocate. He frequently represented his town and county in the Legislature ; alro his district during four or six years in Congress. Upham Genealogy. 197 " As a member of Congress Mr. Upham exerted a salutary in- fluence and was highly respected. He possessed a great share of that kind of useful sense known as ' common sense.' Not favored with extraordinary endowments, unremitting application made him in a measure what he was. In person he was tall ; he was dignified and gentlemanly in appearance and manners. Strict in- tegrity and a right sense of honorable dealing characterized his life. He had, many years previous to his death, made a public profession of religion, and it was uniformly exemplified in his daily deportment. He died in the midst of his usefulness at the age of forty-seven." His epitaph at West Brookfield reads : " Erected in memory of the Hon. Jabez Upham who died Nov. 8, 181 1, aged 47 years. While this tomb admonishes us that we must also die, let the example of its possessor teach us how to live. Inheriting a sound and discriminating mind and early ac- quiring a habit of patient and indefatigable industry, what to most men would have been obstacles, were to him but incentives to execution. By perseverance he rose to eminence in his pro- fession as an advocate, and in character as a Legislator. In this last oflice his talents and his patriotism were conspicuous, not only in the councils of his native State, but in the discharge of his higher duties of a Representative in Congress. But the qualities which most endeared him to the public were not the most esti- mable of his character. In his domestic relations he was amiable and endearing, as a friend constant and affectionate, as a citizen independent and faithful. As a man he discharged his relative duties as accountable to Heaven. As a Christian he died as he had lived, firm in his faith and relying, through the merits of his Redeemer upon the mercy of his God for a glorious resurrection."

During the war of i8ia he was in the British regiment known as the " Fencibles," and was probably in the battle of Lundy's Lane, as there was a John Upham in that engagement, as the records show; he was wounded in some engagement during this war, and left the service in 1815.

Ellis, which wus published in the Proceedings of the Massachusetts Historical Society, December, 1876, and afterward reprinted. " Charles Wentworth Upham, though he was not born within the limits of the United States, h.ul other claim to its full and honored citizenship. Here he passed all but the early boyhood of his life; and here, in several forms of high service, he dis- charged a larger variety of trusts than is usually often assigned to the most favored of those horn on our soil. He came of a family of the original English Colonists of Massachusetts Bay. A line of five generations between his first ancestor here and himself gives the names of t'^CoC "■''o were trusted and serviceable in all the ordinary and emergent ofhct:, calling for able and faithful men, in the development of communiii'" and States. " He was born in St. John, New Brunswick, May 4, 1802. This was at that time a wild, unsettled region of fore^, on the edge of the farthest boundary of the Province, — a region now partly the parish of Upham and partly Sussex Vale, bordering on the St. John's river, on the Bay of Fundy. After the death o.' his father, and when he was but eight years old, he was sent to a school then recently established in St. John, where instruction in Lntin was offered. Later he was placed in an apotheca-s '■ shop, t!ie pro- prietor of which was a physician and surgeon ol large praci'ce in St. John. But the death of his employer auested the current of his life in the direction of a professional education, after he l.ad read through the whole Edinburgh Materia Medica. He w. s sent to a farm fifteen miles above Annapolis, in the valley of the river of the same name, where he performed such rough and use- ful service as his years allowed. In 1813, just after the close of the war, Mr. Phineas Upham, a merchant of Boston, happening, on a visit to St. John, to see his young kinsman, proposed to be- friend him by training him for business in his store. From the inducements offered by this opportunity, the subsequent career of the youth was decided, and in 1816, he returned to the home of his ancestry, arriving in Boston in June of that year. His kins- man received him into his family and counting; 'lOUse, intending to train him for business. But his evident talents and tastes for a higher mental culture were indulged; and, with a view to his preparation for college, he was sent to a school in Boston. He entered Harvard College in 1817, and, pursuing the usual course, V ic^:ijMMiaML9ffL».'«-< ao8 UrnAM Genealogy. in efforts to advance the interests of education in the district and high schools, and in the endowment of the colleges. He also advised measures for the amendment and simplification of the terms of language in the statute law of the Common- wealth. " His principal publications during this period were the follow- ing: Speech in the Massachusetts House of Representatives on the Compromises of the Constitution, with the Ordinance of 1787, Feb. 20, 1849; Report of Committee on Reprinting the Tenth Report of the late Secretary of the Board of Education, 1849; Report of Committee of Education on the Custody and Preserva- tion of Public Documents, 1849; Report of Committee on the Reimbursement of the Secretary, Horace Mann, 1849; Report of Committee on the Age of Children to be admitted to the Common Schools, 1849; Essex County Whig address, 1849; Report in the Massachusetts Senate of a Committee on the National Monument at Washington, 1850; Remarks in the Senate on the Plurality Bill, 1850; Report of Committee on Education on aid to New Salem Academy, Senate, 1850; Eulogy of Zachary Taylor, delivered in Salem, July 18, 1850, at the request of the city authorities; Report in the Senate of Committee on Education on the Visitation of Normal Schools, 1851; Address, as Mayor of Salem, on Organiza- tion of the City Government, 1852. " The qualities and abilities which Mr. Upham had exhibited in his city magistracy, and in both branches of the State Legislature, naturally prompted a desire on the part of his fellow-citizens and neighbors to avail themselves of his services in the National Con- gress. He was chosen to represent the Sixth District of the State in the Thirty-third Congress of the United States, 1853-1855. His term was at an anxious and stormy interval in our public affairs, perhaps, however, not peculiarly so, as our whole national de- velopment has repeated such exciting periods with but rare inter- niissions. He had not been one of the original Abolition party, but was a steadfast Whig, and both led and followed the main constituency of that party in its transition into the Free Soil and Republican organizations. His first effort in Congress was in the interest of securing a permanent and dignified administration and form of high service for the Smithsonian Institution, for the for- mation, security, and wise direction of which the nation is in- debted chiefly to the persistent fidelity of John Quincy Adams. Mr. Upham was chairman of a select committee on the condition and management of the institution, and to suggest the direction and improvement of its means of public utility. ' I Upham Genealogy. 209 ■.V-...- " In his report he laid chief stress upon the feasibility and ad- vantages of making it the basis of a national library, on a scale so extended, and with such selected materials as would make it worthy of a nation of foremost rank and growing to a nobler de- velopment, and adapted as a means for the diffusion through this nation of comprehensive knowledge as one of the conditions of its strength and glory. " The special struggle in Congress during his term was that con- nected with the Kansas and Nebraska Bill. He made a vigorous speech on this exciting theme in the House of Representatives, on the loth of May, 1854. He directed a portion of it in debate to a reply to a member from South Carolina, who had said that the only practicable or desirable way for bringing to an issue the ques- tion which was distracting the nation was an armed conflict. To this heated utterance Mr. Upham responded: 'The honorable member has intimated that perhaps it will be well to abandon the policy of compromises, and for the two great conflicting interests to meet face to face, and end the matter at once. I have sug- gested the reasons why, heretofore, I have contemplated such an issue with reluctance. But if the South say so, so let it be.' The challenge and its acceptance were sad forebodings of the issue. In the same speech Mr. Upham predicted as a sure con- sequence of abrogating the Missouri Compromise, the firm combi- nation of the Free States in resistance to the further extension of Slavery, if not to its continued existence. ' Heretofore,' said he, ' the South has profited by our divisions. Those divisions have arisen to a great degree from the restraining and embarrassing in- fluence of a sense of obligation, on our part, to adhere to the en- gagements and stand up to the bargains made by the fathers, and renewed, as I have shown, by each succeeding generation. But let those engagements be violated, let those bargains be broken by the South, on the ground of unconstitutionality, or any other pre- tense — from that hour the North becomes a unit and indivisible. From that hour ' Northern men with Southern principles ' will disappear from the scene, and the race of Dough Faces be extinct forever.* "In another speech delivered in the House, Feb. 27, 1855, the topics discussed were ' Mediation in the Eastern War,' ' The Institutions of Massachusetts,' 'The Ordinance of 1787.' In vindicating Massachusetts from some attackswhich had been made on her in debate, he said: On the map of the American Union, the State occupies scarcely a discernible space. In territory it is one of the smallest 37 ■■~''B*w>»PW««™»W 2IO Upham Genealogy. of our States There are but three smaller — Connecticut, Dela- ware, and Rhode Island. But sir, there are only three States that exceed it in free population, and but five that exceed it in their aggregate population, counting the whole number of slaves; and each of these five States is from live to nine times as large, and incomparably more fertile. The soil of Massachusetts is hard and cold, and yields only to patient and incessant labor. Her surface is, for the most part, rough, barren and sandy. Her only natu- ral exports, and they have but recently been converted into sources of wealth, are granite from her hills and promontories; marble from the Berkshire mountains, rising before our eyes in polished forms of architectural beauty in the wings of this Capitol; and the ice of her lakes, transported as a luxury to tropical regions all around the globe. But intelligent industry and agricultural science, taste, and enterprise are gradually spreading a garden over her surface. The traveler is amazed at the wealth, beauty, and animation of more than three hundred cities and towns in- cluded within her narrow boundaries. The stir of busy life per- vades the scene like the sunshine; nature catches the spirit of her happy industry, and the brooks that leap and sparkle down the hills and through the valleys, at every step turn the wheels of factories, around which thriving villages gather. Scarcely a spot so secluded as not to be adorned with church spires and vocal with the merry voices of children wending their way to district schools. I look upon Massachusetts, Mr. Speaker, as one of the most remarkable instances of social and political development exhibited in the whole range of history; and, as such, well worthy of being held up to the contemplation of legislators and statesmen here and elsewhere.' "On an incidental matter relating to his personal position as a son of a proscribed Loyalist, Mr. Upham gave an earnest expres- sion of his feelings in the same speech; exhibiting a generous magnanimity, of which it would have been grateful if our country had oflfered more occasions for sincere utterance. He was to be succeeded in his place of representative by one who belonged to the ' Know Nothing.' or Native American party, at the time when that organization was in notoriety. He, of course, belonged to the proscribed class. In the speech just quoted, he makes the following reference to the accident of his foreign birth: " ' Let not gentlemen say it ill becomes me to stand up for Massa- chusetts, inasmuch as she has included me in a proscription that embraces several millions of our countrymen. No temporary phase of public sentiment, no popular excitement of the hour, no Upham Genealogy. 3tt political prejudice, even if it express itself in a blow aimed at me personally, can estrange my heart from the State where I have found a happy home during a life not now short, and in whose soil rest the ashes of my ancestors and of my children. I have ever found an enthusiastic satisfaction in illustrating her local annals. Her schools shed upon my grateful opening mind the lights of education, and my mature life has been devoted to her service to the extent of my ability. I have received at the hands of her people all the honors I ever dreamed of; and more, I most deeply feel, than I have deserved. The profoundest convictions of my soul require me to condemn, and, when the issue shall be distinctly made, in a proper spirit to resist, the policy that attempts to reduce one-sixth of her population to political subordination and inferiority. But no man has a claim to office, and no one, with the spirit of a freeman, can complain of the results of elec- tions, so far as they affect him individually. I do not complain. On the contrary, I feel particularly prompted to pay homage to Massachusetts at this time. It is more agreeable to my self-respect to vindicate her name now than it would have been when within the reach of her favors.' " The interest which Mr. Upham took in the subjects so warmly agitated when he was in Congress, and his mastery of the bearings and momentous character of the issues at stake, are shown in two articles which he contributed to the North American Review^ in October, 1854, on 'The Reciprocity Treaty,' and in January, 185s, on 'Kansas and Nebraska.' "In an address at the opening of the Republican reading-room, in Salem, in April, 1856, he made a very lucid and intelligent exposition of ' The Present State of Parties.' Sharing in the en- thusiasm felt at the time for the prowess and enterprise of Mr. Fremont, the so-called * Pathfinder,* and believing that his in- trepid and vigorous zeal as an explorer was evidence of his capacity to serve his country in other departments requiring man- liness and public spirit, he produced, in 1856, a substantial work of lively interest, entitled the * Life, Explorations, and Public Services of John Charles Fremont.' "Resuming his place in the Massachusetts Senate in 1857, we find in print, during his term, a ' Speech on the Bill for the Ex- tension of the Eastern Railroad Corporation,' April 11, 1857, and ' Speech on the Kansas resolves,' May 7, 1857. With that won- derful variety of office holding which resulted from the desire of those who loved and respected him to make sure of his services in one or another place of public service, he is found again, as before if i cm,^'^ !12 Upham Genealogy. .. I'r mentioned, a member of tlie Massachusetts House of Representa- tives in 1859 and 1S60. And again he manifests his interest in what he regarded as a paramount concern of the State. In a report of the Committee on Education, March 39, he deals with the school district system; and in another report of a joint stand- ing committee, on the day following, he discusses the subject of academies endowed by the State. "In his several terms of service, in both branches of the State Legislature, Mr. Upham retained that esteem and confidence of his constituents which had moved them to give him his offices; and he secured the warm respect of his associates. As the pre- siding officer of the Senate, he was well informed as to the order of business and the rules of debate, dignified and urbane in his bearing and address, and considerate of all that concerned the rights, privileges, and high functions of that select legislative body. And, in alternating as a member of the Senate and the House of Representatives, he seemed to feel that a place in either was of equal honor and opportunity to do good service to the State. His chief efforts, as has been seen, were given to the interests of public education in the various grades of schools; in providing for them competent teachers, improved books, methods and apparatus, and in extending and strengthening their influence to the ends con- formed to the noble aims of the founders of the State, with the help of all the increased prosperity and intelligence of the later generations. Being indebted for the first frugal earnings of his laborious life to a slender compensation for teaching country schools in the winter vacations at college, he loved to renew and strengthen his zeal in their behalf by some continuous relation to them through his whole career. His unstudied extemporaneous remarks when visiting the schools, as well as his carefully-prepared addresses all over the State, gave evidence alike of his desire for, and his rich abilities in, helping toward their elevation and im- provement. " As a speaker in the chair of the Senate, on the floor of the House, though Mr. Upham may not have exhibited the rarest gifts of oratorical grace of genius, he always held the attention and engaged the respect and full consideration of his colleagues. As a preacher for a score of years, he had acquired no pulpit man- nerisms, either of dulness or of heat and exaggeration of utterance. He had a finely-modulated voice, he used precision of method in his plan and arguments, and fortified the position which he as- sumed by a fullness of knowledge, a spirit of candor, and an in- tent to insure conviction or persuasion by fair means for noble !-^'f' Upham Genealogy. 213 ends. In the frequent cases that have occurred in this especially, as in the other New England States, of an exchange of the pulpit for the legislative hall, the experiment has not always proved a success in the speech or the inlluence of the men who have tried it. But in Mr. Upham's case there never was any professional incongruity or infelicity apparent in the exchange of positions. The main assurance and condition of his being listened to with confidence in either place were fully enjoyed by him in having the sincere respect and affectionate regard of all who knew him as a religious teacher or a legislator. Purity of character, elevation of aim, high courtesy in intercourse, and a well-furnished, well-trained mind were his sufficient claims to consideration. " Fifteen years of life remained to him after his retirement from his last public service in the Legislature, in i86o. Though enough of vigor of mind and body remained for valuable literary work, and for pleasant social intercourse, he began to feel the need of caution in maintaining all his energies. He welcomed, therefore, the comparative retirement of his home. His books, the accumu- lation of his years of study, and the gatherings from the distribu- tion of public documents, and the stores of the various libraries within his reach — yielded the materials for his enjoyment and solace, as well as for the severer search for truth. " He prepared among other manuscripts, for delivery before the lyceums, a life of Roger Williams, a life of Hugh Peters, and a Life of George Downing, — all three of whom were personally associated with Salem. Another of his lectures was upon History and Biography. The Essex Institute, of which he was one of the founders, was an object of his love and labor. Its meetings owed much to him for their interest, while they imparted to him through his associates great pleasure. His voice and pen were always de- voted to fond tributes to such of those associates as preceded him in the way for all. The publications of this Institute are enriched by many of his contributions. " Mr. Upham was not so engrossed by the congenial occupations of the scholar as to prevent the continuance of the friendly social and domestic intercourse incident to his former professional du- ties. Old friends and new ones found him at their firesides with his genial presence, kindly and judicious in speech and judg- ment, mature in wisdom, with an overflow of knowledge and stores of personal experience, a memory that never loosed its hold, and a radiant religious trust which heightened the sunlight of life. " Mention has been made of the publication by Mr. Upham of a series of ' Lectures on Witchcraft, published in a small volume, ai4 Upham Genealogy. in 1831-2. There were reasons why his interest should have been intently centered upon this melancholy subject. He was a dis- tinguished citizen of a town whose name and fame were unfortu- nately shadowed by one of those popular misrepresentations, natu- ral, perhaps, but unjust, which originate wrongs that hardly admit of redress. * Salem Witchcraft,' ' The Witch Town,' arc epithets and phrases as misleading as they are familiar. " The lectures which he had prepared and published so early in his ministry at Salem, on this subject, were highly appreciated by the public, and for more than thirty years after they were out of print he was earnestly solicited to allow more editions of them to be issued. But he had become well satisfied that the treatment which he had given in them of his sombre theme was wholly in- adequate. Very much of his leisure was devoted, not merely to the investigation of the local details and incidents connected with the outburst of this frenzy in Salem, but in a most thorough and well-nigh exhaustive examination of the subject of witchcraft in the annals of the world. He collected all possible sources of information for the study of this subject, — theologically, phil- osophically, and in its historical development, — as it had been treated by divines, pontiffs, monarchs, legislators, civilians, phy- sicians, and jurists, and while it cast its shadow at one time over all Christendom, had numbered its victims by hundreds of thou- sands, the saddest incident in the tragic rehearsal was that the wisest and best men of their ages and countries, who might have been looked to as lights and guides for the bewildered people had given their testimony to the reality and enormity of the crime of witchcraft. " After he had thoroughly informed himself on his subject in its broadest relations, following it into all its dark and mysterious intricacies, he justly felt that it was in his power, and was conse- quently a matter of obligation to him to write upon it in a way to meet the highest demands of truth — in fidelity to history and in the treatment of a profoundly serious theme in its psychological and religious relations. The result of his researches and reflections appeared in a work in two substantial volumes, published in 1867, entitled ' Salem Witchcraft ; with an Account of Salem Village, and a History of Opinions on Witchcraft and Kindred Subjects.' How, in such a community of people, and under such conditions, a spark of mischief generated by the uncanny tricks of a group of children, and at once blown into a flame by the advice of minister, doctor, and magistrate — who of course shared in the universal delusion — blazed out into consequences grouped under the phrase 'Salem Witchcraft,' may be learned from these volumes. The Upham Genealooy. »«S pages, though often harrowing, have an absorbing spell, which even enthrals and fascinates. " In an article which appeared in the North American Rmew, in April, 1869, Mr. Upham was sharply challenged and criticised for the alleged injustice of his severe treatment of the Rev. Cotton Mather fOr his agency in the witchcraft delusion, as a ready, restless and zealous abettor of the superstitions from which it started, and of the distressinj; horrors in which it culminated. Mr. Upham replied to this criticism, reinforcing all his original statements and arguments in an extended and elaborate commu- nication which he made to the New York Historical Magazine for September, 1869. " The same year in which the volumes just referred to were pub- lished, he wrote and delivered his elaborate historical discourse at the re dedication — after reconstruction — of the place of wor- ship of the First Church in Salem, Dec. 8, 1867. On the i8th of July, 1868, he delivered before the Essex Institute a memoir of his friend Francis Peabody, which was published. He took part in the course of lectures delivered before the Lowell Institute, in 1S68-9, by members of the Historical Society, relating to the early history of Massachusetts. His lecture delivered Jan. 26, 1869, was on ' The Records of Massachusetts, under its First Charter.' It has its place in the published volume. In April, 1869, he read at a meeting of the Essex Institute, a memoir of Hon. Daniel P. King, representative in Congress, which was published by the Institute Press. To the January, 1873, number of the Univer- salist Quarterly, he contributed an article on ' The Rise of the Republic of the United States.' " During Mr, Upham's first five years in Salem, he numbered among the members of his society and church, the Hon. Timothy Pickering. This distinguished patriot died in Salem, in his 84th year, in 1829. The last surviving son of Col. Pickering had undertaken — after the death of his brother, who had commenced the work — to continue the biography of his father, a single volume of which had been published in 1867. Just before his death, the next year, he requested that the completion of the biography should be committed to Mr. Upham. Though the latter had about that time felt the first symptoms of a local malady which kept him much at home, impaired his bodily vigor, and finally caused his death, he accepted it. After spending more than three years of labor over the colonel's manuscripts, and con- sulting other sources of illustrative information over a wide field, he had the satisfaction of giving to the press the matter of three ( 1- • i6 Upham Genealogy. !!' additional volumes, which were published in 1873, thus securing in continuation of the single volume already in print, an adequate ' Life of Thomas Pickering.' Probably no more congenial work could have occupied the interval of retired leisure just preceding the disabling physical infirmities of the last three years of Mr. Upham's life than the re-reading the struggling and critical inci- dents attending the birth and early pupilage of our nation as illustrated in the career of one of its ablest, most conspicuous and faithful patriots. " Mr. Upham maintained through his whole mature life a diligent and extensive correspondence with private friends and with men in office. He was genial, hearty, free and confidential in his com- munications with those whom he esteemed and loved. He com- mented on the development of opinions and ideas, and kept fully abreast of the most advanced thought — at least in acquainting himself with it — though by no means always with the result of accepting its theories or conclusions. Within the range and de- partment of critical investigation and Biblical study which had so interested him in his original profession, the progress of specula- tion opened some bold questions which he was contented to leave where he found them. He had no weak timidity which would lead to discourage or repress any natural restlessness as to the security of accepted foundations and sanctions of religious faith, or the confidence with which some avowed that they had dis- credited and repudiated these, having found better, or were wait- ing patiently for a substitute. He had so certified to himself and assimilated the essential verities for consecrating the responsi- bilities and duties of human life, for perfect reconciliation to the Divine will, as it leads our way through mysteries and buffetings, and for a calm reliance upon the lessons and hopes of Christ's gospel, that he ' kept the faith.' It was his reliance and solace when seclusion and pain, by day and night, cast him upon his own resources of patience and trust. "Among the friends and correspondents with whom for long years Mr. Upham maintained the most hearty and confidential in- tercourse was Edward Everett, who turned to him freely for sympathy, advice, and sometimes for helpful guidance on the exigencies of his brilliant career. "By a letter not received by Mr. Upham's family till after his decease — indeed, it was not written till nearly a fortnight after that event had occurred, as it was dated June 27, 1875 — it appeared that he had been elected a fellow of the 'Royal Histori- cal Society of London.' Upham Genealoot. ai7 ) i " It was on June 15, i H 75 — two days preceding the general and entluisiastic Centennial celebration in Boston and over a wide neighborhood — that Mr. Upham's life came to a peaceful close. The event was duly recognized by the city authorities and among the friends of the departed, who had been so faithfully served in the \'aried career, and who so honored and respected the character of the divine, the statesman, the man of letters, and the citizen. " His funeral took place from the First Church on Friday, June 18, and was attended by a large company of his friends. The Rev. E. S. Atwood, minister of the South Church in Salem, offered prayer. The Rev. J. T. Hewes, Mr. Upham's successor in the First Church, read selections from Scrij)ture, and an ad- dress was delivered by the writer of this Memoir." Mr. Upham's remams were deposited at the Harmony Grove Cemetery. Dr. Ellis, as the printed sheets containing the publication of his address at the funeral service of Mr. Upham, were passing through his hands, added the following brief note chronicling the death of Mrs. Upham: " Mrs. Ann Susan Upham, after suffering from long protracted illness, died in Salem on the 5th of April, 1877, at the age of nearly 73. This excellent lady shared largely in the talents and brilliant powers of her family. A life-long friend of her own sex briefly expresses her appreciation of Mrs. Upham in these words: ' She was a truly feminine soul, a clear mind, a witty spirit.' " The following allusion to the decease of Mrs. Upham was made by the pastor of the First Church at Salem, at the conclusion of his sermon on the Sunday morning following her death: *' A gifted woman, the wife of him who for many years served at these altar-places, we laid away yesterday beneath the fresh spring grass and the first (lowers, with the tenderest love, and in trium- phant hope. "She inherited genius, but harmonized all the faculties and functions of her nature with truth and beauty, by education and culture, by the study of nature and of art, by the creation and com- position of poems for the home circle full of cheerful wit and charming quaintness, embalming in the memories of her children the pleasant associations and scenes of domestic life and love. A woman of a dee|)ly religious nature and life, rational, reverent and devout; sometimes mistrustful of self, sometimes despondent, but with a cheerful, gladsome, genial faith in God and humanity, ful- filling all the duties of daughter, sister, wife, mother, friend, with obedience and care, with fidelity and the sweetest love." 28 (i 3l8 Upham Genealogy.

Sarah Keyes, of Ashford, Conn., in 1814, who d. May 8, 1856; he was a lawyer, and U. S. Senator from Vermont from 1841 until his death, Jan. 14, 1853, at Washington, from small-pox; his remains were buried in the Congressional Cemetery, at Wash- ington. Washburn's History of Leicester, Mass., has the follow- ing notice of Senator William Upham: " His father moved to Montpelier, Vt., in 1803. William studied law with Judge Prentiss, and was admitted to the bar about 181 1. He was a prominent lawyer, and was elected to the U. S. Senate in 184T, re-elected in'1847, and died at Washington, Tan. 14, i8s3' When a boy, William crushed Ms hand in a cider laill. It was trimmed with a hatchet. Being unfitted for manual labor, it was determined to educate him. He studied at the academy in 1799 and 1800. He studied law with Judge Prentiss, and was admitted to the bar about 181 1, and became his partner. He attained a high rank in his profession. He was very successful as a jury advocate. He possessed a great share of wit and humor, and occasionally indulged in sarcasm with telling effect. He was a social, pleasant, and agreeable companion, and had acquired such a degree of popular favor and confidence, that when his former partner was appointed District Judge of the U. S. Court, Mr. Up- ham became his successor in the U. S. Senate in 1841, and was re-elected in 1847. He died at Washington, while still Senator, in 1853. . " He did not speak often in the Senate, but whenever he did, it was with much force, directness, and effect. He was stanch in his political opinions, and commanded attention as an independ- ent thinker, and an outspoken representative of New England sentiment." The following sketch of the life of Senator Upham is from the History of Montpelier, Vt., published in i860, by the Hon. D. P. Thompson: " The Hon. William Upham, son of Captain Samuel Upham, was born in Leicester, Mass., Aug. 5, 1792, where, while a resident there, he received only the first rudiments of an education, being too young to attend the academy in that town. In 1802, his father and family removed to Vermont, and settled on a farm near the center of Montpelier. Here from the age of ten to about fifteen, he worked on his father's farm, only attending the district school in the winter. At this time he met with an accident, which, at the time, apparently gave a new turn to his destinies for life: While • oaged about a cider mill, his hand was caught in the machinery, all the fingers of the right hand were so badly crushed that r? Upham Gbnbalooy. »37 they had to be amputated even with the palm. This accident un- fitted him for manual labor, led his father to consent to what had before been his wish, the commencement of a course of education, prepa ^to'ry to the study of law. Accordingly he attended the old academy at Montpelier, a few terms, and then, with the late Rev. William Perrin, of Berlin, for a fellow student, pursued the study of Greek and Latin, about one year, with the Rev. James Hobart of the last-mentioned town. In the year 1808 he entered the office of the Hon. Samuel Prentiss, in Montpelier, as a law student, and after pursuing his legal studies there for about three years, he was admitted to the bar, and soon went into partnership with Mr. Bayliss a few years; he then opened an office alone in Montpelier, and from that time, until his election to the U. S. Senate, he, either alone or with his temporary partners, continued in the constant and successful practice of his profession, the business of which was always more than ample enough to require his whole time and attention. For the first thirty years of his professional career, Mr. Upham, with the exception of only one instance, steadily declined the many proffers of his friends for his promotion to civil office, though his opportunities for holding such offices included the chance for a seat on the bench of the Supreme Court. The excepted instance was involved in his consent to run as a candi- date for the town representative in 1827; when, though the ma- jority of his party was a matter of much doubt, he was trium- phantly elected. In 1828, he was re-elected, and in 1830 received a third election, serving through all three terms to the entire sat- isfaction of his constituents, and therein exhibiting talents as a public debater which gave him a high position in the Legislature. In the presidential campaign of 1840, he, for the first time, took an active part in politics, and to use av.:odern phrase, stumped nearly the whole state, making himself everywhere known to the people by the peculiar traits of his popular eloquence, and by doing effi- cient political service in favor of the election of General Harrison. In 1 84 1 he was elected to a seat in the United States Senate; and in 1847 he was re-elected to the same distinguished office, and died of malignant small-pox, at Washington, before the completion of his last term, on January 14, 1853, aged 61 years. His remains repose in the Congressional burial ground in that city. " In his professional career, to which the main energies of his life were devoted, he became widely known as one of the best advo- cates in the state. He was, indeed, what might be called a natural- born lawyer, and the practice of his profession seemed to amount to almost a passion with him; and, even in his youth, before he I ajS Upham Genealogy. commenced his legal studies, he would often, it is said, leap from his dreams in his bed, and commence pleading some imaginary law case. And, what he determined to be, that he became, one of the most successful jury lawyers to be found in any country. Never hesitating for a word, and fluent almost beyond example, tlie style of his speaking was rapid, thoroughly earnest, and often highly impassioned, and so magnetic was tlrat earnestness and seeming confidence in his case, and so skillfully wrought up were his arguments, that bad indeed must have b>-' n his side of the question, if he did not command the sympathies and convictions of a good part, if not all of the jury." At the time the customary resolutions, on the occasion of his death, were introduced in Congress, Senator Foot, of \ ermont, in his obituary address, said of him: " His impaired health, for some years past, has restrained him from participating so generally and so actively in the discussions of this body, as his inclinations might otherwise have induced him to do, or his ability as a public debater might perhaps have de- manded of him. Nevertheless his speeches on several important and existing public questions have the peculiar impress of his earnestness, his research, his ability and his patriotic devotion to the best interests of his country. A striking example is furnished of his fidelity to the trust committed to him, and his constant and patient attention to his public duties here, in the fact, which I had from his own mouth, that during the ten years of his services in this body, he never absented himself from the city of Washing- ton on a single day, while Congress was in session, and never failed, while the condition of his health would permit, of daily occupying his seat in the Senate." Senator Seward said : " William Upham was of Vermont ; a consistent exponent of her institutions. He was a man of strong and vigorous judgment, which acted always by a process of sound, inductive reasoning, and his compeers here will bear witness that he was equal to the varied and vast responsibilities of the senato- rial trust. He was a plain, unassuming, unostentatious man. He never spoke for display, but always for conviction. He was an honest and just man. He had gotten nothing by fraud or guile ; and so he lived without any fear of losing whatever of fortune or position he had attained. No gate was so strong, no lock so fast and firm as the watch he kept against the approach of corruption, or even undue influence or persuasion. His natural policy was the increase of industry, the cultivation of peace, and the patron- age of improvement. He adopted his opinions without regard to 8sa»»«a^-.--^^3ai mm' Upham Genealooy. 339 their popularity, and never stifled his convictions of the truth, nor suppressed their utterance, through any fear or favor, or of faction; but he was, on the contrary, consistent and constant ' As pilot well expert in periloiti wave, That to a iteadfMt itarre hit course hath bent.' " ' Mr. Upham's best known speeches in the Senate were: His speech on the Three Million Bill, delivered Maich i, 1847; on the Ten Regiment Bill, and the Mexican War, delivered Feb. 15, 1848; on the Bill to Establish Territorial Governments of Oregon, New Mexico and California, delivered July 28, 1848; on the Compro- mise Bill, delivered July i and 3, 1850. These were nil published in pamphlet form, as well as in all the leading political papers of the day, and at once received the stamp of public approbation as elaborate and able efforts. But besides these, and besides also the numerous written and published reports he made during his Con- gressional career, as chairman of the Committee on Revolutionary Claims, on the Post-ofRce and Post-Roads, and of other commit- tees, Mr. Upham made many other speeches on various subjects, which, though less extensively circulated perhaps, than those above mentioned, yet received almost equal praise from high quarters. Of the latter may be cited, as an instance, his speech in opposi- tion to the Tariff Bill of 1846; and to show the approbation with which it was received at the time among distinguished men, the following characteristic note from Daniel Webster is given, which was sent to Mr. Upham, the evening after the speech was delivered, and which, after his death, was found among his private papers : Mv Dear Sir: "Thursday Eve., July 26, 1846. If you could conveniently call at my house, at eight or /line o'clock in the morning, I should be glad to see you for five min- utes. I wish to take down some of the statements made by you respecting the market abroad for our wool. Following in your track, my work is to compare the value of the foreign and home markets. Yours truly, Daniel Webster. " If I had the honor of being a correspondent of Mrs. Upham, I should write to her to say, that you made an excellent speech. The point of the duty of our government to fulfill its pledges, so frequently and solemnly made, was exhibited in a very strong light. D. W." In his domestic relations, Mr. Upham was also fortunate and happy. Near the close of 1814, he married Miss Sarah Keys of 340 Upham Genbalooy. Aihford, Conn., and to them five children were born. After her husband's death, Mrs. Upham, though of a buoyant disposition, and striving hard to bear her loss with Christian resignation, soon began visil 'y to droop, and on the 8th of May, 1856, followed him to the grave. Hon. William Upham and his wife, Sarah Keys, had: 361 I William Keys, b. April 3, 1817, at Montpelier, Vt. ; m. Maria Elizabeth Weeks, of Hardwiclc, Vt.; was a lawyer ; lived in Salem and Canfield, O. II Charles Carrol, b. 1818; he was a purser in the Navy, and d. 1867 ; left a wife, but no children. III Sarah Sumner, b. i8ai ; m. 1840, Hon. William George Langdon, of Montpelier, who d. 1870 ; no children ; she d. in Boston, May 37, 1888. The Boston Post of May 39, 1888, contained the following: " Mrs. Sarah S. Langdon, whose sudden death occurred in this city Sunday, was a daughter of the late Senator Upham, of Montpelier, Vt. She had come to this city to consult an oculist, and had been under treat- ment some months. A few days since she was stricken with apoplexy, from which she never rallied. Mrs. Langdon was widely known in the social circles of New York and Washington, and was everywhere most highly esteemed and beloved. She was noted for her deeds of unostentatious charity, and at her home in Montpelier, her kindly face was familiar among the deserving poor. Personally she was a lady of high accomplishments, who made friends wherever she went, and her sudden demise will cause sorrow to many. The funeral will take place to-day from her late home in Montpelier." IV Mary Annette, b. 1835 ; never married ; previous to the death of Mrs. Langdon she u:: lally made it her home with her, the two sisters spending their winters in Florida or California, and the summers at Nahant, Newport, Saratoga, or other watering places in the North. There was another son born in this family who died in in- fancy, and of whom there is no record. X93.

Sarah Derby in 1827 ; b. in Westminster, Feb. 26, 1800; d. in Racine, Wis., Sept., 1878 ; he d. in Niles, Mich., 1852. He wa£. many years in business at Westminster, where he was last engaged in the manufacture of cane-seated chairs, supplying firms in various parts of Mass., and forwarding his stock to those places with the teams which he kept on the road for that purpose. A business firm owed him a sum of money, large for those days, to recover which he employed Franklin Pierce (afterward presi- dent of the U. S.). A delay in the suit followed, during which the available property of this firm was placed beyond the reach of the law. This brought financial disaster, the sacrifice of his busi- ness, and his home in Westminster. He moved West with his wife and eight children, locating at Niles, Mich., and where he died a few months later. After his death the family moved to Racine, Wis., the elder children engagin'g in teaching and commercial occupations, the younger ones obtaining an education at the high school. Of his life and character his daughter says : " Looking back- ward into the old white house, opposite the tavern, our old New England home, I see my father, Alvin Upham. Physically he was rather below the average man in weight and strength, though fully of the average height. He had a thoughtful, earnest look, large, dark- blue eyes, a full brow, with mouth and chin, denoting firmness and strength of character; his countenance lighted by the half hidden quiet humor of his nature ; brightened also by a trusting spirit, which, unfortunately for him and his, darkened and bur- dened his last days by an over-much confidence in others. In town and church his quiet influence was felt, and always for the good. He was given to hospitality, and an indulgent father ; some of his children were ever at his side, whether at his business or iii his home. Grace was said by him before meals, and there was daily family prayer, and reading of the Scriptures. His mother lived with him many years, dying in his home after she had passed into the nineties. Her last look to him was a benediction, for it said : 'Alvin you have been a good son. ' He was a good son, a good husband, a good father, and a good citizen. His was a life of fifty- two years, ' filled with little nameless acts of kindness and love.

Don Alonzo Joshua Upham attended the preparatory school at Chester, Vt., and subsequently, in 1826 and 1827, at Meriden, N. H. At the age of 19 he entered the Sophomore class at Union College, Schenectady, N. Y. He was graduated from Union Col- lege in 1831, with the highest standing in a class of about 100, receiving the degree of B. A. In October, 183 1, he entered the law office of Gen. James Tallmadge, in New York, as a student. Through the recommendation of Dr. E. Nott, president of Union College, he received the appointment of professor of mathematics ■^, \ 1 i } »S4 Upham Genealogy. at Newark, Del., which position he held for three years, at the same time pursuing the study of law, and writing editorials for the Delaware Gazette — then the leading Democratic paper of Dela- ware. I » was admitted to the bar in Baltimore 1835. He re- turned to Delaware, and commenced the practice of law in Wilmington, where he was elected City Attorney the year following. From 1834 to 1837 he was editor and proprietor of the Delaware Gazette and American fFa/^/zwaw, published in Wilmington. After having married, in 1836, he left Wilmington in the fall of 1837, and settled in Milwaukee, in the then Territory of Wisconsin. Here he formed a law partnership, the firm being Upham & Wal- worth, and was known as such for many years. Later he formed a partnership with the Hon. Wilson Graham. Mr. Upham was a member of the Wisconsin Territorial Legis- lature in 1840-1 and 1842. He was elected County Attorney for Milwaukee county 1843. He was President of the Constitutional Convention, which met at Madison in 1846 to frame a Constitution for the new State of Wisconsin. He was Mayor of Milwaukee 1849 and 1850. He was the Democratic nominee for Governor of Wisconsin in 1851. He was U. S. Attorney for the District of Wisconsin from 1857 to 1861 — during which period the memor- able Booth trials were in progress. His health failing in 1863, he retired from the active duties of his profession, after an honorable and lucrative practice from 1837 to 1863. His leisure after his retirement was occupied in the study of astronomy — one which had been a favorite with him at college — and with the aid of an astronomical telescope of large power, he was able to review his investigations in this direction, learning of the great progress which has been made in that science during the years which he had been actively employed in his pro- fession, and to some extent verifying the computations annually made at the Astronomical Observatory in Washington. He died July 19, 1877, in his 68th year, and was buried at the Forest Home Cemetery, near Milwaukee, where a monument has been erected to his memory. His wife survived his death, but died September 9, 1883.* They had: I John Jaques, b. July 25, 1837, in Wilmington, Del., entered the U. S.

The desire that others should know Him, prompted him to untiring zeal in the ministry, and a hearty co-operation in all judicious measures for the conversion of the world. "As a preacher he was impressive an'1 interesting. Feeling deeply the truths he uttered, he reached the hearts of his hearers. His skill in delineating the various workings of the human heart, often made his hearers wonder at his acquaintance with their characters, and frequently led them to think him personal. He would. portray their faults, and hold them up in all their deformity and exposure to the wrath ofiGod; yet in so affectionate a man- ner, that while they felt the reproof, they loved the reprover the more. His preaching was eminently practical, yet he always ad- dressed the understanding and conscience. He spoke of guilt and pardoning mercy, much more than of danger, and of a way of escape. While he dwelt comparatively little upon the advan- tages of piety, the obligations of Christians to be Christ-like, to glorify God, and make sacrifices for the extension of the Gospel, was his favorite theme. Full of benevolence himself, he earnestly labored against every form of selfishness in others. " His death was much lamented by the ministers and churches of Vermont, among whom his piety, talents and wisdom, had secured him a measure of esteem and confidence possessed by few at so early an age. May the Lord raise up many among us who shall walk in his steps, as he followed Christ." William Dennis Upham, and wife, Lucy McKenzie Spink, had: I Frances Ann, b. July 22, 1836, in Wickford, R.

He was with the Grand Junction, Bell- ville and North Hastings railroad in Ontario, Canada; with the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe, and Mexi- can Central roads; with the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy; in 1885 was appointed Chief Engi- neer of the Chicago, Burlington and Northern, then in course of construction, with its head-quarters at St. Paul, Minn. After the completion of the latter he was made Superintendent of all lines of railroad belonging to the C. B. and Q. Co. within the State of Illinois, head-quarters at . Galesburg, which position he resigned on account of a .tem- porary loss of health. Later he was engaged in con- struction of a line of electric street cars at Salt Lake City, Utah, known as the Rapid Transit Company. In the spring of 1891 he became general manager of an electric street car company at Lincoln, Neb., in which line he is also a stockholder. Charles C. Upham is one of those Who have had the opportunity of reading their own obituary notices. Some years ago while he was in the South-west, some of his men were massacred by Indians, and it was thought at first he was with the party; fortunately he was temporarily absent on some business, and so escaped. The following notice appeared in a Denver, Col., paper on the occa- sion of the news reaching there. It contains num^ous inac- curacies, which no attempt has been made to correct, and is given just as it appeared: " Butcheries on the Border. — Further Details of the Murder of the Mexican Central Party of Engineers. — Charles C Upham, a Well-known Colorado Engineer, is Found among the Dead. (Special Dispatch to Daily Republican.) "'Santa Fe, July 6. " ' Further information from El Paso is to the effect that the Mexi- can Central surveyors, killed forty miles south of El Paso, were Engineer C. C. Upham and his men. The bodies were found by Colonel J. F. Bennett, of Silver City, and some Denver men, who were going south to look at property in Chihuahua, preparatory to purchasing. They report that three bodies were burned, so as to be beyond recognition, but others could have been recognized ¥,;; .- '.iiJiWV^.,,,^ . ■■^;^- -:...?i--A;->ft.,;:„-.:»v.^^.-^ Upham Genealogy. ii \^ a8^ by parties knowing the men. It is supposed that Upham was one of the men burned. This party of surveyors numbered thirteen with himself. They were near Candelaria mountains. The bodies are now en route to El Paso to be identified and buried.' " Mr. Charles C. Upham, one of the victims of the horrible trag- edy, was well known throughout the State. He was born in Maine, but in later years resided with his parents in Dixon, 111., where his father retired as one of the most successful lumber merchants in that section. After graduating at the Troy (N. Y.) Polytechnic Institute and serving an engineering apprenticeship on the Illinois river, he came to Colorado in 1875, locating at Del Norte. There he was afterward elected county surveyor of Rio Grande county. In 1878, he abandoned a lucrative business to join the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe engineering party, then at work in the Royal Gorge. As locating engineer he remained with the company until the line was completed to Leadville. " Locating in the latter place, he did private work, meeting with the best of success in a business sense, but becoming fascinated with the prospects of a journey through New Mexico he accepted a position with the Santa Fe party moving south, in the spring of 1879. He became distinguished as a locating engineer, in this line his abilities being such as to give him a reputation that would have followed him for years had he lived. A few months ago, after the completion of the main line to Deming, he was offered the position of Chief Engineer on the Mexican Central, but being engaged at the time in settling a business proposition with Denver parties, which if successful would have occasioned his return and permanent residence in the State, he requested that the offer be allowed to remain open until he could give a final answer. The company acquiesced in this. He came to Denver some four or five weeks since; hoping to complete the negotiations that were pending. The trip did not result as expected, and he returned to await developments, with the sad and untimely result chronicled. " Mr. Upham was 29 years of age, a young man of manly phy- sique and most prepossessing appearance. He was of a very kindly disposition, courteous and gentlemanly, and beloved by everybody with whom he came in contact, either in the business or social circle. Possessed of none but the noblest impulses, he was never known to do a single wrong during his long sojourn in the State, and leaves behind a memory among his old associates — especially those of his earlier days in the San Juan — that will live, and liv- ing, thrive and gain strength with each succeeding year. A count- less host will mourn his death. 37 if m ! t. 99b Upham Gbmcalooy.

From 1845 ^'^ ^^^^ h^ w^^ theological professor, and for the last five years president of the Literary and Theological Institution first located at New Hampton, N. H., and afterward in Fairfax, Vt. After June, 1866, he was for nine years editor of the Watch- man and Reflector (since the Watchman); five years associate editor of the Religious Herald, Richmond, Va.; and ten years health editor of the Youth's Companion, Boston, Mass., which posi- tion he still held in 1892. His editorials and occasional com- munications in prose and poetry to the various periodicals number nearly three thousand. The Baptist Encyclopedia (Cathcart's), in a brief sketch of him, rfeferring to his editorship of the Watch- man and Reflector, says : '* He held this office with distin- guished ability." The " Poets of Maine," by George Bancroft Griffith, gives specimens of his poems, with a biographical sketch. In i860 the Colby University conferred on him the degree of D. D. When Dr. Upham severed his connection with the Watchman, the National Baptist had the following notice : " The only matter for regret in the recent change of the- Watch- man, is in the withdrawal of James Upham, D. D., who for nine years past has helcf a position on the staff of that paper, and dur- ing a greater part of the time (owing to the absence of Dr. 01m- stead) has been practically the chief editor. While with character- r ; ii wm' 30« Upham Genealogy. istic modesty e has kept himself out of sight, he has done his work with remarkable ability, and has given to the paper variety and vivacity, while at the same time keeping steadily m view (in the language of his own farewell), 'revivals; missions, foreign, home and domestic ; ministerial educations, temperance and peace.' " As already stated in the introductory pages, Dr. Upham has been largely instrumental in the preparation of this book. The following lines were clipped from a recent number of the Watchman, and are from the pen of Dr. Upham: FEW— MANY. . • \ (Matt. 35:31.) Few are the duties given, Fewer the duties done; Yet vast the compensation From these few duties won . Few are the days we spend here, As servants of our Lord ; Yet crowns and thrones await us, — Oh, marvelous reward! Many the rolling ages Beneath the Saviour's smile. Ages on ages endless. Outpouring joy the while. Ob, to be faithful ever. In deed and heart and mind I Oh, to be faithless never, . " Whate'er the taslc assigned! Large hearted is our Master; Our duties few and light; But oh! the blessed prospect He holds before our sight. Chblsea, March 39, 1889. As appears from the above.

He received his education at the Salem High School, the Latin Grammar School and the Dennison University, at Granville, Ohio; but owing to the effects of protracted study he did not graduate — his health failing. After teaching several years in the West and in New England, he went, in 1843, as a missionary among the Cherokees — the most advanced of all the Indian tribes in Chris- tianity and civilization. He was married on the same evening that he was publicly set apart for this work, and with his young wife, he arrived at the scene of his future labors on the 34th of June, 1843. Soon after his arrival he took charge of the National High School, which he retained through his missionary life, a period of eighteen years. To this he added biblical instruction of the native preachers, and preaching on the Sabbath. His entire work he prosecuted with enthusiasm and success, until t^e beginning of the War of the Rebellion, in 1861, which broke up the mission for years. Owing to his known anti-slavery sentiments, the ** border ruffians " had a plot to assassinate him, but this plot was divulged to him by a friendly Indian, and on the ist of July, 1861, he made a timely escape to Kansas, where he purchased a farm and placed his family upon it. But soon after he was settled as pastor of the Baptist Church in Lawrence, Kan. He was in Lawrence during the Quantrell raid, on the 21st of Aug., 1863, on which occasion four hundred and fifty raiders, after having first cut off all means i\ t i 1 304 Upham Grnf.ai.ooy. of escape from the city, shot down in irly two hundred citizens, and burned most of the huildinas, anumlu-r of persons being con- sumed in the flames. It was said that Mr. Uphwn's unusual cool- ness, courage and personal management succeeded in diverting the raiders from their purpose to burn his dwelling, and shoot him, though one shot was Ared at him. His house was left like an island in an ocean of (lame. His church was burned, and his congregation killed, ruined or scattered, but he continued to struggle with .ind for them for more than a year longer, after which he returned to Massachusetts. He was there settled successively .ts pastor at Ayer Junction, West Townsend and Framingham. In Sept., 1.H76, lie resigned his four years pastorate at Framingham, owing lo an alfection of the heart. He died at ColTeyville, Kan., while on a visit to his eldest son, May 27, 1877. On the morning of his death he was about to preach, but suddenly ceased to breathe. His remains are buried with those of his wife at Coffeyville. His brother James said of him: "He proved himself as effi- cient a pastor in New FiUgland, as he had been a missionary among the Cherokees. He w.as a man of excellent mind, devoted to his work, a genial companion and a most intelligent, ready and inter- esting conversationalist. Of all the children, he physically most resembled his father. His wife was a woman of rare worth, They had: 441 I Willard Stow, b. April 13, 1845, in Taquoec, Cherokee Nation ; m. Emma A. Morgan.

The following reference to Mrs. l^rake is from a Newton, Mass., paper: " We learn with pleasure that Mrs. Maria Upham Drake, one of our most brilliant and effective speakers, has consented to her nomination as a member of the executive committee of the Newton Indian Associa- Upham Gcnealooy, 30s III IV 89 tion, which was made at the last annual meeting. Mrs, Drake was liorn an.ong the Cherokees, in In- dian Territory, her father, Rev. W. P. Upham, hav- ing resided there for eighteen years as missionary. When slie was thirteen years of age she was sent to New England to be edtuated. As her childhood's memories must be full of the voices of the sons of the forest, wc trust that now she will lend the influ- ence of her logical mind and silver-tongued words to the cause. Mrs. Drake understands the *art of putting things; ' she has, by inheritance and acquisi- tion, a moral and intellectual acumen, which has enabled her to grasp the question of the hour. Great success has attended the intellectual course of lec- tures to women, which she first gave for the Boston Young Women's Christian Association early in the winter ; this has been repeated in Medford, West Medford, Charlestown, Maiden, Everett, Chelsea, and next week it will be commenced in East Som- erville, and early in May in Lynn. The tickets have been sold at $1.00 for the course, and the so- cieties have added scores of dollars to their treas- uries. In a private letter from a lady in Maiden to a friend in Charlestown, the writer says: *I cannot overestimate the value of these lectures. I felt that the first lecture fully paid for the price of the course. The enthusiasm of Mrs. Drake makes the ladies realir.e the importance of these subjects, as they could not from reading them.' The subjects of these lec- tures are, ' Heredity,' ' Physical Culture,' ' Moral Culture,' ' Spiritual Culture,' ' Social Purity.' Mrs. Drake has long been favorably known through her poems and stories, and her eloquent and intelligent advocacy of temperance. Nov we may trust that she will join in the work for the Indian here in Newton, where such work is as old as the days of EHott and Waban, and where it is said a white man and an Indian never lifted a deadly weapon against each other."

Y., and lived there many years, where he had an extensive practice of m . di- cine. He d. at Yonkers, Aug. 9, 1889. The fol- lowing obituary notice was published in the Yonkers Statesman on the day of his death : " To-day it is our sad duty to chronicle the death of the senior physician of this city. Dr. George B. Upham, of io8 Warburton avenue, died this morn- ing, about 3 o'clock, of heart failure, in the 66th year of his age. He was the foti.ti. physician, in point of settlement, to practice i' . profession in Yonkers. His predecessors were the brothers, Drs. Amos W. and Horatio S. Gates, and Dr. Levi W. Flagg, all deceased. For a rhort time Dr. Upham was associated with the elder Dr. Gates, but he soon began an independent practice. Dr. Upham was born in New York city, March 29, 1824. His boyhood was passed in Brunswick, Me. He received his education under the super- »? I ,! \l 1' m 308 Upham Genealogy. vision of Prof. T. C. Upham, of Bowuoin College. After the usual preparatory course, he matriculated, and graduated in 1846. He then entered the medi- cal department of Dartmouth College, having begun at Bowdoin the study of medicine, and was under the teaching of the famous professor, E. R. Peaslee, who was demonstrator of anatomy in Dartmouth. " Dr. Upham returned to New York city in 1848, and continued the study of medicine and surgery under the celebrated Dr. Valentine Mott. Then he completed his studies at the Bowdoin Medical Col- lege, graduating in 1850. He married Miss Sarah B. Richardson, of Bath, Me., in that year, and began the practice of his profession at Brunswick, where he continued nearly three years. In June, 1833, he carne to Yonkers and resided for a year at 323 Warburton avenue. Then he removed to 108 on the same avenue, which beautiful place has been the family residence ever since. " During the War of the Rebellion Dr. Upham was a member of the Board of Enrollment for the Ninth Congressional District, embracing West- chester, Putnam and Rockland counties, and was an examining surgeon for drafted men. The Board was stationed at Tarrytown for three years, and he was on duty there daily during the whole period. When the war was over, he was further appointed by the government an examining surgeon for pen- sioners, in which capacity he served for six years. "Dr. Upham was also for many years on the Medical Board of St. John's Riverside Hospital. He was Republican in politics. As a physician he stood with the foremost, both as to professional skill and as to fidelity in his work. He was widely and favorably known — his extensive range of study, under eminent professors and professic .lal men, giving him a reputation well supported by his learn- ing, ability and courtesy. As a man he was a thorough gentleman — kind, tender, pleasant. To the suffering he was a com- forter, always imparting courage and hope to the sick. He was connected with the famous Delta- Kappa-Epsilon Society. ^■i- tkmim idk Ufham Genealogy. 309 1 1 " It can hardly be said that his demise was unex- pected. He had not been well for many months, but occasionally he felt strong and in good spirits. On Wednesday of last week he was seen about the city ; he looked well, and acted as if in good health. Thursday he was stricken with the disease that had troubled him, and after lingering for seven days he passed from earth. A widow, two daughters and a son survive him. "The funeral services over the remains of Dr. Upham were held at the residence on Warburton avenue, on Sunday afternoon. Rev. W. W. Rand officiated. After reading appropriate passages of the Bible, a hymn was sunp which was followed by a brief discourse from the text in Samuel I, xx:3, where David says to Jonathan: 'There is but a step between me and death.' After singing an- other hymn, Rev. J. Hendrik de Vries offered prayer. " There were a large number of friends present, whc were permitted to take a last look at the de- ceased through the glass as he lay in a black cloth casket. The remains were interred in the family plot in St. John's Cemetery." Dr. George Barnard Upham and wife had: A William Richardson, b. April 15, 1852, in Brunswick, Me. He was graduated at Yale Col- lege, 1874, and afterward at Bellevue Medical College, N. Y.; then went to (Paris and con- tinued his medical studies.

Jan. 8, 1801, in Deerfield, N. H. ; m. Betsey W. Lord, dan. of Nathaniel, of Kennebunkport, Me., who d. in Concord, Aug. 17, 1833, ae. 23 years; m. (2) Sept. 9, 1834, Eliza W. Burn- ham, dau. of Rev. Abraham Burnham, D. D., pastor of the Con- gregational Church at Pembroke, N. H., for more than 40 years, — and who survived his death. She was b. Feb. 21, 1813, and d. April 14, 1882. Nathaniel G. Upham was graduated at Dartmouth College, 1820, and immediately began the study of law in the office of Hon. David Barker, Jr., of Rochester, N. H. Having com- pleted his studies, he was admitted to the bar, and began the practice of his profession in Bristol, N. H., remaining there until 1829, when he removed to Concord. He continued in the prac- tice of law at Concord until 1833, when he was appointed one of the associate justices of the Superior Court of New Hampshire, at the age of 32. He continued in the latter position for lo years, until 1843, when he resigned his seat on the bench, and became superintendent of the Concord railroad; and of which road he was later made president. It has been said that the success of this railroad may be justly ascribed in no small degree to his wis- dom and energy. He held the < ■''- *\\l 1866, when his connec- tion with the road ceased. .. ,. ; 1853, while still connected with the Concord railroad, judge opham was appointed as one of a commission to act upon various claims which had from tline to time, for nearly forty years, been made by the citizeLs o; the United States upon the government of Great Britain, and by the subjects of Great Britain upon the government of the United States. These difficulties had for some time been the cause of unpleasant feelings between the two countries. One commissioner was to be appointed by each government, and the two were to name a third person to act as umpire in cases where the commissioners might differ in opinion. Judge Upham was appointed on the part of the United States, and Henry Hornby, Esq., on the part of Great Britain. Their decision was to be regarded as final, and in accordance with it, all the claims between the two countries were to be adjusted. A writer in a leat ag journal, in speaking of the selection of Judge Upham for this duty, at the time said: "The numerous friends of Judge Upham will be gratilied with the high mark of distinction conferred upon him. The office to which he is ap- pointed is one of scarcely less importance than that of a minister to a first-class power. Its duties require talent of no ordinary m Upham Genealogy. 3" character for their correct and proper discharge. Judge Upham possesses all the requisites for an efficient discharge of the duties which this appointment devolves upon him, and will faithfully represent the interests of his countrymen in all the conflicting claims which may come up between the two governments, and their citizens and subjects. In addition to practical good sense and correct business habits, he is a sound lawyer and a scholar of superior endowments." The commission met in London, in September, 1853. Within the allotted time they had acted on all the claims that were pre- sented, amounting in the aggregate to many millions of dollars, and pronounced upon each a deliberate and final judgment. In accordance with the decisions thus rendered, the claims were paid by the respective governments, and the irritation which had been growing satisfactorily settled. Mr. Buchanan, then minister to England, in a letter to the secretary of state, at the close of the commission, said: " It would scarcely be possible lor any individuals to have disci'arged those duties in a more satisfactory manner. The business of the com- mission was conducted by Judge Upham and Gen. Thomas, in their several spheres of action, with much ability as well as in- defatigable industry and perseverance; and the result of their labors has proved to be quite as favorable to our country as could have been reasonably anticipated. The action of this commission will be a great relief to the two governments. All the claims of the citizens and subjects of each on the government of the other, which have been accumulating since the date of the treaty of Ghent, Dec. 24, 18 14, and had given rise to so much diplomatic correspondence, have happily now been decided, and can no longer become subjects of discussion." The success of this commission probably led to the selection of Judge Upham for another service of a similar nature. In 1862, in a commission appointed by the United States and New Grenada for the settlement of claims between the two countries, he was chosen as umpire. At the time of his death his name was promi- nent for the office of arbiter in a mixed commission between the United States and Mexico. He was a strong advocate of friendly arbitration as a means of settling in ernational difficulties, and thought that much could be accomplished in this way to avoid the evils of war. In politics Judge Upham belonged to the school of Jefferson; but he was never active as a politician, and in but a few instances did he hold any political office in the State. He was a member of m hit I. 3" Upham Genealogy. the convention called in 1850, to amend the Constitution of New Hampshire. In 1865 and 1866 he was a member of the State Legislature, in which he was a strong advocate for the proposed amendments of the national Constitution. When the War of the Rebellion came he at once took an open and decided stand on the side of the government, and for the Union. His addresses delivered on public occasions, his letters and essays published in leading newspapers and in pamphlet form, and distributed through the country, were said to have exerted a great influence in the cause of the Union. His address on " Rebellion, Slavery and Peace," delivered in Concord, was after- ward published by the Loyal League Publishing Society, in New York, and had a wide circulation in all the loyal States. He ex- pressed his opinion in regard to the continued existence of slavery in the following words: " There can be no reasonable assurance of a permanent peace while slavery exists." He held thf.t, "if any one should doubt whether slavery was necessarily the death of the Union, still if he believed its existence would meriously en- danger and imperil it, that danger should insure its overthrow." During the war he addressed a letter to Hon. Oilman Marston, then in Congress from New Hampshire, entitled " The Present Crisis," in which he discussed the principles involved in the con- troversy between the North and the South. Th;,s was received with great favor by all friends of the Union, and v^as published in full in many of the leading loyal papers. Judge Upham was one of the original members of the Concord Society of Natural History. He became a member of the New Hampshire Historical Society in 1833, and continued his member- ship until his death, being three years president of the society. In 1862, Dartmouth College conferred upon him the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws. In 1837 he became a member of the Congre- gational church, and continued his church membership through life. He was especially interested for many years in the efforts which were made toward African colonization, and at the time of his death was president of the New Hampshire Colonization So- ciety. He died at Concord, Saturday, December 11, 1869, ae. 68. His memoir, from which the foregoing has been mainly taken, was written by Prof. Daniel J. Noyes, D. D., of Dartmouth College, and read at the annual meeting of the New Hampshire Historical Society, June 14, 1871. It was afterward published in a volume of fifty-eight pages, giving a full and complete account of his life, his work and his character. tmmm i: Upham Genealogy. m Nathaniel G.

After a brief period spent in the study of law, he en- tered the U. S. navy as third asst. engineer, Nov. 17, 1862. He was iirst placed on duty at St. Louis, Mo., as an assistant ro Chief. Eng.

After the war he made a cruise on the "Ticonderoga," on the European station, returning to the United States on the frigate " Franklin." After some shore duty, he made a cruise in the double-turreted monitor " Mian- tonomah, which was followed by a tour of duty as an instructor in steam engineering at the Nav.u i -t i ntmm .*■■>«■ Upham Genealogy. 31S I Academy at Annapolis, Maryland. He then went to China on the flag-ship " Hartford," remaining on that station about one year and a half, when he was sent home on sick leave. In 1875 he was placed on the retired list of the navy on account of heart disease, having at that time the rank of passed assistant en- gineer. He never recovered his health, and died of heart disease and consolidation of the lungs, at Portsmouth, Aug. 13, 1889. He was a man singu- larly unpretentious in character, but with a mind well stored with useful knowledge, particularly on scientific matters, the subject of chemistry being one on which he was especially well versed. He was given to scientific speculation, and modestly ex- pressed many clear and original thoughts on such subjects that would have added interest to the lead- ing publications of the day. He was a member of the DeWitt Clinton Commandery, K. T., and of the Order of Cincinnati. The Portsmouth Times of Aug. 14, 1889, published the fol- lowing obituary notice on the day after his death : JOSEPH B. UPHAM DEAD. Sketch of the Life of a Well-Known Citizen. It has pleased Divine Providence to again enter the home of one of our most esteemed families and remove therefrom a well- beloved son and friend, one who during his life residence in Ports- mouth has endeared himself to us by his many good qualities of mind and of heart. In the demise of Passed Assistant Engineer Joseph B. Upham, U. S. N. (retired), which took place on Tuesday evening at 10 o'clock at his late residence on Middle street, companions and fr;.»n(js are called to drop tears sacred to hallowed memories of the dr^^arted. Modest and unassuming as he was in demeanor, he was yet resolute in the right; a man of broad character, generous impulse and warm heart, frank and affable in speech, and genial and sunny in temperament; indeed, those most intimately ac- quainted found a filial and trusting heart and an ever obedient and consecrated life, one singularly gifted with elements that are good in human kind. Yea, it can be truly said of him that he had nov rt ifrlt; enemy in "^he world. N))' 'Jphair. entered the United States naval service from New TL iipshire as third a- • istant engineer on Nov. 17, 1862; was pro- 'i' i :iz I 1 \ ' Si6 Upham Genealooy. moted to second assistant engineer on March 15, 1864 ; became first assistant engineer on Jan. i, 1868, and passed assistant en- gineer on Feb. 24, 1874. Soon after one of his late promotions, Mr. Upham was stricken with heart trouble which developed so rapidly that he was ordered before a medical examining board, the result of which placed him on the retired list as a passed as- sistant engineer from Dec. 27, 1875, after a total sea service of seven years and five months. His enforced retirement was a source of keen regret to him, and many a time and oft the writer has heard him lament the physical necessity which compelled his release from active official duties. He was a conspicuous member of the Masonic fraternity and of De Witt Clinton Commandery, Knights Templar, of this city, in which noble branch he was profoundly interested and wherein he had held several official positions. The sufferings of Passed Assistant Engineer Upham during the past few months were at times intense, ytt he bore them with un- usual fortitude and with meek and humble submission to the higher power. He gave to God a filial and trusting heart, and re- ferred to death without fear. The heavily bereaved and universally esteemed mother, who within a few brief months has been called to part with her husband, and now her son, has the most gracious sympathy of this com- munity in her desolation. 'Tis some consolation in the darkest hour to have faith to believe that "All's well with them; " that " Themselves will fade, But not their memory. And memory has power To re-create them from the dust." 289. Joel Worthington" Upham (Pliny', Nathan*, Isaac', Phineas*, Phineas', Phineas', John'), of Worcester, Mass., b.

Mr. Upham was born in Brookfield, and was descended from an ancient family, who for four genera- tions i)r'iceding him had lived in this town, and the old homest.ad in Po > paug still belongs to his estate.

The follow- ing obituary notice was published in the Boston Daily Advertiser: " The death of this promising young man is not only a grief to his friends but also a matter of regret for the community in which he lived. He was of the best type of the young men who, born in inde- pendent circumstances, without the necessity of exertion, choose to take their share of the burdens of the world and to qualify themselves to worthily carry forward those labors which the present gen- eration must soon relinquish. He did not allonr himself to be tempted to idleness, but was a faith- ful student when m college and afterward a seeker of employment. He finally received an important business position, and while every thing looked bright before him, with an opportunity to show his abilities and high qualities, he was attacked by a fatal disease. He was especially high-minded and re- fined, and endeared by his amiable disposition to all who knew him. He was faithful, loyal, conscien- tious and sincere. Such a character can ill be spared, and it will long be followed by affectionate remembrance and esteem." II Charlotte, b. March 6, 1864, in Boston; m.

Frederick* Upham (Samuel S.\ Amos', Amos', Phineas*, Phineas', Phineas*, John*), of Fairhaven, Mass., b. Oct. 4, 1799, in that part of Maiden which has since become Melrose, Mass. ; m. Deborah Bourne, b. Oct. 24, 1797, a lineal descendant of the Rev. Richard Bourne, of Sandwich, Mass., one of the most cele- brated of the Puritan clergy. Frederick Upham left his native town at the age of 20, became a Methodist clergyman and D. D., all his ministry being in New England. On his 89th birthday, Oct. 4, 1888, he preached a sermon, having, been at that time 68 years in the ministry. He led a very active life, and at one time declined what was probably an opportunity of entering Congress, for the reason that he considered politics inconsistent with his profession as a minister. Besides preaching at Fairhaven for many years, he had also preached at Dorchester, Providence, and other places. The Boston Journal of Oct. 5, 1889, contiiined the following notice of Dr. Upham : " REV. DR. FREDERICK UPHAM, The Nestor of the M. E. Church, Celebrates His Ninetieth Birthday. " The nestor of the New England Southern Coni'erence of the Methodist denomination, the Rev. Dr. Frederick Upham, of Fair- haven, celebrated his 90th birthday yesterday, after a service of nearly 70 years in the ministry, 63 consecutive years having been in effective relations with this conference. The venerable clergy- man received his first appointment in 182 1, which was to the pastorate of Scituate. Subsequently he served successively in Sandwich, Martha's Vineyard, Falmouth, New Bedford, Newport and almost all the stations in the Southern New England Con- ference. Dr. Upham is a native of Melrose, Mass. For it years, from 1837 to 1847, he was presiding elder. He has been a member of four General Conferences — 1832, 1840, 1844, 1872 — and was honored with the degree of D. D. in 1855 by what is now De Pauw University. At the General Conference of 1832, which was held in Philadelphia, he met Bishop McKendree, who was elected to the Episcopate in 1808, and was the second bishop after Asbury. So far as can be learned there is now but one other living member of that General Conference. He was granted super- annuated relations in 1883, because of impaired health. His gen- eral health now, however, is very good, and his mind bright and active. He is the father of Prof. Samuel F. Upham of the Drew Theological Seminary at Madison, N. J. The venerable clergy- 4- •*; I;.- t Upham Gembalooy. 331 ■\i man has not wholly relinquished ministerial duties, and frequently displays his old-time vigor in prayer and preaching. Yesterday he received the felicitations of numerous friends at his Fairhaven home." He d. March 20, 1891, as shown by the following obituary notice : "THE REV. FREDERICK UPHAM. Boston, March 20 (Special). — The Rev. Frederick Upham, probably the oldest Methodist clergyman in America, died at his home in Fairhaven this morning. He was born in Melrose, Mass., on Oct. 4, 1799. At the age of 21 he began to preach in the Scituate Circuit as junior preacher. That circuit included all the towns from Plymouth to Dorchester, and he traveled over it once each month. He was stationed in New Bedford in 1825, 1853, 1854, 1871 and 1872. He was also stationed at different times at Sand- wich, Bristol, Provincetown, Fall River, Newport, Providence, Taunton and Fairhaven. From 1837 to 1847 he was presiding elder. He was a member of the General Conferences held in 1832, 1840, 1844 and 1872. In 1865 he received the degree of D. D. from the institution now called De Pauw University. He retired from active work in 1883 because of physical infirmity. He leaves a son — the Rev. Dr. S. F. Upham, professor of practical theology in Drew Theological Seminary — and two grandsons — the Rev. Frederick Upham, Jr., of the New England Conference, and the Rev. Frank Upham, of the New York East Conference. The public funeral services will be held at the Methodist Church, Fairhaven, on Monday, March 23, at i o'clock. Among the prominent clergymen expected to be present are the Rev Dr. S. M. Buckley, of New York; the Rev. Dr. Ela, of Boston; the Rev.

He studied law in the office of his father, at Montpelier, at which place he was admitted to the bar soon after reaching his majority, and practiced his profession in Vermont several years. In April, 1845, he moved to New Lisbon, O., where he remained until 1858. In the latter year he removed to Canton, O., where he gained a large and lucrative practice, ultimately rising to the head of his pro- fession in that state. It is said there are many men now living (1889) who were indebted to his influence with Mr. Lincoln's cabinet (nearly all of whom were his personal friends) for their promotion and the position in life which they have since attained. Those who knew him said he inherited in a large degree the tal- ents and genius of his father, was well versed in the law and an eloquent advocate, and that he was at all times kind and consid- erate in his dealings with the younger members of his profession. He died at Canfield, Mahoning Co., O., while attending court at that place. At the time of his death the Steubenville (O.) Herald of April 4, 1865, made the following mention of him: "William K. Upham, Esq., was a native of Vermont and a son of the late United States Senator Upham of that state. He was a gentleman of fine family, education and presence, and as an attorney stood at the head of his profession in this state, ranking with Chase, Stanton, Corwin, Vinton, John A. Bingham and others. He had his faults, but with many noble traits; he was social, magnanimous, and generous to a fault. As a man of talents he claimed our special admiration." The members of the Stark County (O.) Bar erected a monument to his memory over nine feet high, of finely wrought and finished Italian marble, as a mark of respect from the lawyers of Stark Co. to one who was once a leading light in their profession. On the base, in large letters, is simply the name: UPHAM. The face of the spire, near the base, bears the following inscription : "William K. Upham. Born at Montpelier, Vermont, April 3d, 181 7. Died at Canfield, Ohio, March 2 2d, 1865. Erected by the Members of the Stark County Bar." Both William K. Upham and his father were six feet in height. William K. Upham and wife Marie Elizabeth had : I Sarah M., b. 1845; m- Wallace H. Ballou.

Feb. 2, 1819, in Montpelier, Vt.; m. Dec, 1846, in Philadelphia, Anne E. Bancroft. He d. June 29, 1885, of cancer of the stomach. He left Vermont at the age of 20, in 1839, and went to the city of New York, where he was employed as a clerk; was also so employed in Richmond, Va., and other cities in the South, but soon returned North. In 1842 entered the U. S. Navjr at Nor- folk, Va., and was made purser's clerk; the year followmg being transferred to the U. S. brig Truxton, which sailed for Constanti- nople, and returned to New York in Jan., 1844, with the remains of Com, David Porter; was then assigned to the steamer /'«««/<7« (Com. Stockton), with the rank of master's mate, and was on board of that ship at the memorable explosion of the gun " Peacemaker." Transferred to the sloop-of-war Falmouth, and after cruising in the Gulf of Mexico until the next year, was discharged from the navy at Pensacola, Fla., and returned to Vermont. In the spring of 1846 went to Philadelphia, and was employed as a book-keeper in the lumber business, remaining there until 1849, during which time was married. On the 1 6th of Jan., 1849, sailed for California in the brig Osceola from Philadelphia; went around Cape Horn, touching at Rio de Janeiro and Talcahuana, and arrived in San Francisco Aug. 5, 1849. Was for a time engaged in mining on the Calaveras river, but soon returned to San Francisco and obtained employment as book-keeper with the Pacific JVeivs, a newspaper just being started, at a salary of $100 per week. In the spring of 1850 he associated himself with Ave practical printers, and in Sacramento started the J^ immM '."^WW^HI^ 3SO Upham Gbnbalooy. Sacramento Transcript, the first daily paper published in Califor- nia outside of S.in Francisco. In the fall of 1850 he sold his in* terest in the Sacramento Transcript for $10,000 and returned to Philadelphia. In February, 185 1, he started the Philadelphia Sunday Mercury, which paper he continued to ])ublish three years; and was then in the stationery and news business in Philadelphia until 1863, after which engaged in the perfumery and proprietary medicine business at 35 South Eighth street, in which he continued during the re- mainder of his life, though his later years were mostly passed in Florida, where he had pecuniary interests, and in the development of which country he was greatly interested personally. He took ^reat interest in all matters pertaining to the early days in California, and in 1878 published a bound volume entitled " Notes of a Voyage to California via Cape Horn, together with Scenes in El Dorado in 1849 and 1850," which was highly appre- ciated by the older Californians as a truthful and creditable history of the times of which he wrote. He was delegated by the " Society of California Pioneers " at San Francisco to represent that society at the dedication of the Lick Monument at Fredericksburg, Pa., on the 22d of April, 1878, which duty he performed in a highly creditable and satisfactory manner, his address on that occasion being published in full in the California ])apers, and being the subject of much favorable comment there and elsewhere by the press. He was one of the vice-presidents of the " Associated Pioneers of the Territorial Days of California," the members com- posing which society being residents of the Eastern States — " re- turned Californians." Expressly for the meetings of this society he wrote a poem and three songs dedicated to the pioneers of Cali- fornia, all of which were published; one of these, the " Song of the Argonauts," was especially remarkable, and "The Land We Adore was replete with graphic reminiscences, though not with- out a vein of pathos in its vivid portrayals and *' fond recollections of long-ago times." He also wrote an article on " Pioneer Jour- nalism in California," which attracted the general attention of the press. For the centennial year at Philadelphia he composed the following: 1776 — CENTENNIAL ODE — 1876. By Samuel C. Upham.

He was an unusual man, of remarkable energy, many resources, and strongly-individualized character, as evidenced by the events and incidents of his life. He was much interested in the prepara- tion of this genealogy, and furnished most of the information here recorded pertaining to the Montnelicr Uphams; but (like several others who have manifested a like interest and have passed away during its preparation), he did not live to witness its publication. As already shown, he died in his 67th year. Samuel C> Upham and wife Anne Bancroft had : I Marion, b. April 8, 1848; m. Samuel L. Foster, of Philadelphia. They had a son and a daughter.

He was an officer in the war of the Rebellion, and served as captain and com- missary of subsistence in the Department of the Gulf, where he rendered very able and efficient service. His commission was signed by President Lincoln and Secretary Stanton, a fact which he regarded with considerable pride. He was for many years a prominent citizen of Ripon, at which place he died, February 27, 1892. At his death the following obituary notice was published in the Ripon Free Press, of March 3, 1892: " OBITUARY. " After a brief sickness, the result of apoplexy, Mr. C. H. Upham died on last Saturday morning, and was buried from his residence in Ripon on Monday morning, the service being conducted by the Rev. E. H. Merrell, of the College. His brothers from Shawano and Marshfield, with their wives, his son Fred and wife, from Marshfield, a sister and her husband and a large number of neigh- bors and friends were at the funeral. "Mr. Upham was born at Westminster, Mass., on Feb. 18, 1828. He was educated in the common school of his neighborhood and at Westminster Academy. At the age of 20 he came to Niles, Mich., but returned to Westminster in 185 1, where he married. In 1853 '16 came to Racine, Wis., and from this place his neigh- bors sent him to the State legislature in 1861. In 1862 he joined the army and remained in the service till the close of the war. He held the important post of chief of commissary for the de- partment of Louisiana, which lies west of the Mississippi, during the larger part of his service. In i866 he went to Shawano, Wis., where he engaged in general merchandising with a brother, and was very prosperous. He removed to Ripon with his family in 1877, where he has since resided. He was postmaster of Ripon during Arthur's administration. " Mr. Upham was a shrewd and exact business man, a sterling patriot, a kind neighbor, and a generous friend. He had a very wide acquaintance among public men, and was greatly respected by them. " He was one of a family of nine, five boys and four girls. Two brothers and three sisters survive him. Of his own family, besides the widow, a son, Frederick Upham, Esq., of Marshfield, and a daughter, Mrs. Dr. Frank Everhard, survive. One daugh- ter died in infancy." 45 3S4 Upham Genealogy.

The following is an extract from the paper in question : " The city of Marshfield, whose almost magic growth from a dense wilderness to the business, financial and social proportions of one of the finest cities of the state and North-west, has become known to all enlightened readers, furnishes an excellent illustra- tion of the results that can be accomplished by a brainy, enter- prising and public-spirited class of citizens and business men, all united in the common purpose of erecting and maintaining a busy, live and thriving city. It is a true saying that it is the citi- zens that muke a city, and this maxim has never been exemplified in a more striking degree than by the accomplished results of the energy of the citizens of this most remarkable of the Northern Wisconsin cities. " Marshfield is situated on the main line of the Wisconsin Cen- tral railroad, 192 miles north-west of Milwaukee, 33 from Stevens Point and 40 from Wausau. It is located in the midst of one of the richest agricultural regions of the West, and is bounded on the west by the Yellow and on the east by the Eau Pleine rivers. The timber is mainly hardwood, with heavy pine forests on the lower lands. Nowhere in the West is there a city more favored by natural advantages and climate, and with such varied and di- versified resources to welcome the manufacturer, the business or the professional'man, the farmer or the laborer. The town was platted and organized as a village in 1879, ^"^ incorporated as a city in 1883, and is now subdivided into four wards. The muni- cipal government is conducted by a mayor and board of alder- men, and the city has no bonded debt. " The first impetus toward building a city was in 1879, when Colonel W. H. Upham, then of Shawano, came to this section, then a dense wilderness, and built a small saw and shingle-mill, ''fN^WPH^ fi Mi Upham Genealogy. nnd it is to the indnmitnblc will, enterprise and public spirit of this remarkable man the town owes its development and present standing as a );reat manufacturing center, and to him justly be- longs the title of being the father and founder of the city. Colonel Upham is a gentleman in the prime of life, tireless and devoted to his large business, which he personally supervises; is a man of rare education and ability, having been eibu^ated and graduated at West Point, served in the (livil war and in the rejju- lar army, and is admired by all for his untiring energy and m- tecrity. After the mill started business, business men nnd settlers flocked to this region, and the population increased rapidly from 718 in 1880 to 2,092 in 1885, while the census of January, 1888, taken by the city, showed the number to be 3,009. Unlike many western towns, Marshfield has never experienced a 'boom,' nor the attendant financial disaster following an inflation of values and property. The growth has been strong and steady and there can be no backward progress, for though the leading business at present is manufacturing, the city is backed by one of the finest farming countries in the world, already well developed. " Prior to June 27, 1887, the entire business and residence por- tion of the town was built of wood and highly combustible. On the day last named, one that will be forever recollected by all citizens of Marshfield, a (ire started in the large lumber yard of The Upham Manufacturing Company, and by 9 o'clock of the same day the entire business plant of the company, a large num- ber of residences and the entire business portion of the town, excejjting one small store, was in ashes. Hundreds of men, women and children were homeless and in dire need of the plain- est necessities of life. Much doubt existed in the minds of all whether the manufacturing industries and the city would be re- built, and then it was that the mettle of the business men was fully tested. Considerable doubt was expressed as to whether The U])ham Manufacturing Company would rebuild its various mills or not, but on the 28th of June Colonel Upham ran up the American flag, and announced his determination to rebuild, when all doubts were dispelled as to the future of the city. Then began such a building boom as has never before been ecpialed in the history of Wisconsin, and as a result, sixty-two solid brick busi- ness blocks were erected and being occupied prior to Jan. i, 1888, 'besides the various mills and numerous residences. All are of modern designs, and will rank among the finest in the state. iiblin spirit of and present im justly l)e- of the city. , tireless and ipervises; is a .'diicated and i in the rej^u- ergy and in- and settlers rajjidly from anuary, 1888, Unlike many 'boom,' nor ion of values idy and there J business at of the finest :d. csidence por- ustible.

Fore- most among these is The Upham Manufacturing Company, whose business plant stands second to none in the state or in the West, both in its magnitude and in the diversity of its manufactures. The officers of this company are: W. H. Upham, president; Fred. W. Upham, vice-president; Charles M. Upham, managing director at Shawano; Merril H. Wheeler, secretary, and Frank R. Upham, treasurer. The company owns and operates a large saw and shingle-mill, running two of the noted 'handsaws; ' aplaning-mill, a furniture factory, veneering works, machine shops, and one of the most extensive roller flouring-mills in the North-west. About 800 men are employed the year round, who are paid weekly. To illustrate the quality of the manufactured products, it is but necessary to remark that the flour products cf the Marshfield roller-mills and the manufactured furniture are mainly sold in the cities of San Francisco, Portland, Ore., Boston, New York and Chicago, while several orders have been filled for firms in Glasgow, London and other European cities. In addition the above com- pany also operates one of the largest retail general stores in the We I, employing a manager and a large force of clerks. The company also operates a logging train of cars and locomotive, used mainly in transporting logs to the different mills. No com- pany stands higher in Wisconsin, and none is more highly esteemed by its employes. 1 "The Banner Roller-Mills also deserve more than a casual men- tion, from the fact alone that they are one of the largest flour and feed manufacturers in the West. These mills are owned and ope- rated by The Upham Manufacturing Company, and have a ca- pacity of 300 barrels per day. The main mill is five stories high, lighted by electric light and heated by steam, and cost originally upwards of $40,000." It will be observed that in the organization of The Upham Manufacturing Company are included the names of several Up- hams, all of whom may be duly identified with the particular families to which they belong. A later paper, published in Milwaukee, Aug. 11, 1889, contained the following personal notice of William H. Upham: i; 'i T-imw ''* w i K^ j mm m » m'- »! '' ''r m'< ' « *f - tm ti m i ^ ■ 3S8 Upham Genealogy. "A REMARKABLE CAREER. [Yenowine's News.] " There are scores of people in Milwaukee who know W. H. Upham, the unpretentious, mild-eyed, easy-talking, ex-army officer, who founded Marshfield, Wis., ten years ago. He is a member of the Loyal Legion, a frequenter of the Milwaukee Club, a promi- nent G. A. R. man, a tower of strength in commercial circles, and a politician of acknowledged shrewdness. He has the distinction of being the first private volunteer soldier to be honored by an appointment to West Point, receiving his commission from the hands of President Lincoln. Major Upham is one of the few people who have lived to read their own obituaries. He partici- pated in the first battle of Bull Run, was shot through the lungs and left on the battle field for dead. The news reached Racine, where he was then living, and his relatives and friends mourned him as one dead. The Racine papers printed long and eulogistic biographies, one of them erecting a cut-rule tombstone at the head of the notice, with two angels kneeling and weeping before it. Rev. Mr. Hutchins, of the First Baptist Church, Racine, preached a fervent funeral sermon, which was printed in full the next day and now occupies a conspicuous position in the major's scrap book. Seven months after this mournful event the young soldier turned up in Libby Prison, where he had been all the time, hovering between life and death for a long time after being hauled off the battle field. These and other events have made Major Upham's life a very remarkable one. " About fifteen years ago he resigned his position in the army and penetrated the pine forests of Wisconsin to make his fortune. After operating at one or two places he decided to locate on the site of what is now the town of Marshfield, a bustling, enterprising little place on the line of the Wisconsin Central Railway, 192 miles north of Milwaukee. It was then an unbroken wilderness, with only one house. Major Upham erected a saw-mill and went to work. The forest has disappeared, a town of 4,000 inhabitants has sprung up, there are big mills and manufacturing plants, and one of the finest farming sections in the state has been opened to trade and commerce. When one stops to think that all this change has taken place in ten years, the results seem truly marvelous. And even more than this — the town has been built twice in this short time. Two years ago it was entirely destroyed by fire. The loss was very heavy and the blow was a terrible one. The plucky people decided at once to rebuild, and in consequence it is to-day r g r-i » Ii i i«iTTia i W w 'wriv iFWflipBWi rrillMaBTiH Bg Upham Genealogy. 359 one of the handsomest towns of its size in the country. There is a whole street ot brand new brick stores and houses and the effect is very pleasing. The streets are lighted by electricity, the sidewalks are well paved, and for its size it is the best looking and most substantial town in Wisconsin. The leading industry of Marshfield is The Upham Manufacturing Company, of which Major Upham is the head and center. The plant includes one of the best equipped saw-mills in the state, with a capacity of 20,000,000 feet a year; a large furniture factory employing several hundred men, a finely equipped flour-mill, a planing-mill and a large general store. The Upham Manufacturing Company gives employment to half of the population of the town, and its pay- roll amounts to a quarter of a million dollars a year. The plant is most perfect in all its details, and the business is so methodically organized that it runs like clockwork. There is one notable thing about the operations of this company. Other towns in the state have suffered by mill men sawing up all the best pine in a section and then pulling up and going to new fields, leaving the place to a slow but inevitable death. The Upham Manufacturing Company converts the pine into lumber and at the sam^ time saws up the hardwood and manufactures it into furniture. By this arrange- ment the plant becomes permanent and a much greater number of men are employed. " Major Upham, whose genius and executive ability has given life to this vast enterprise and made its existence possible in the face of many seemingly insurmountable obstacles, is a comparatively young man. He was born in Westminster, Mass., May 3, 1841. He was the first to enlist in the Belle City Rifles at the breaking out of the war, and this company was of the only Wisconsin regi- ment in the first battle of the war. As already stated, his name was reported in the list of soldiers killed. He only knew that he was shot down and later taken off the field and placed in Libby Prison, where he was kept for seven months and then paroled. He went to Washington and was sent for by Lincoln, to whom he was able to give a succinct statement of affairs in the South. Then he was given an appointment at West Point, and it is a singular fact that his first duty after being assigned to the army was to guard Jeff Davis, who was a prisoner at Fortress Monroe. Ten years' service in the army gav^J Major Upham all the military life he wanted. His career in the development of north-central Wis- consin has been something remarkable. A clear-headed business man and a patriotic citizen. Major Upham has long ago taken a place as one of the leading figures of the state." ■ -' . ■ ■ ■ M - t wt * ^yTr ;v ..te, (It North Siiriiigfield, Vt. Nov. i^ tK.-.-;*, w?> >* .<• ■ ,.:-ft4.ii;t7 o!

He was a member of the Massachusetts legislature in 1835, his only public ofiSce. His son wrote concerning him : " He was eminently a family man, and the dearest spot on earth to him was his own fireside. There was no pleasanter family than his, and no one enjoyed it more than he. His convictions were very strong, and whatever he believed he cherished with his whole nature. He was a 'Free Soiler' from the start, an ardent temperance man, and an earnest advocate of every cause he believed to be right." At his death the following obituary notice appeared in the paper at Stoughton : " Died in Stoughton, Thursday, Sept. 20, 1888, at his residence on Lincoln atreet, Abel Tilden Upham. " ' Uncle Abel,' as he was familiarly called, is gone. His was a familiar and well-beloved face on our streets. For many years he has gone in and out among us, always the same pleasant, hon- est and respected citizen, whose friends embraced the entire com- munity, and whose goodness was recognized by all.

It seems only yesterday that his form was seen at the post-office and on our streets. He had lived be- yond the full of three score years and ten, and yet we cannot but feel the deep sense of sadness at his taking away. " He has always resided in our midst.

Henry Pratt* Upham (Joel W.', Pliny', Nathan*, Isaac*, Phineas*, Phineas*, Phineas", John'), of St. Paul, Minn., b. in Millbury, Mass., Jan. 26, 1837; m. Sept. 23, 1868, Evelyn Ger- trude Burbank, b. in Lewis, Essex Co., N. Y., October 30, 1844, the daughter rf Simeon Burbank, of St. Paul, formerly of Lud- low, Vt., where he held a commission as colonel of Vermont militia. Colonel Simeon Burbank's father was Samuel Burbank, who m. April 22, 177^, Eunice Kendall, of Sherburne, Mass., and served in the Revolution. He was at the battle of Lexington, as an ensign, at Bunker's Hill as a lieutenant, and in the Rhode Island campaign as captain. His widow, Eunice, received a pen- sion until her death, June 30, 1845, at the age of 95. Captain Samuel Burbank lived in Massachusetts and in Vermont. Henry Pratt Upham's mother died when he wus two years old, and his father marrying again, he was brought up by a stepmother, whom he bears in affectionate remembrance. When about three years old his father moved from Millbury to Worcester, Mass., and continued to live there during the remainder of his life, where he acquired a competency in the manufacture of the famous turbine water-wheel. Henry P. Upham attended the public schools at Worcester until about 1856, and soon after went West. He reached St. Paul on the 9th of March, 1857, then a little town " out west," of about 10,000 inhabitants. Here he formed a copartnership with Chauncey W. Griggs (afterward State senator and colonel of the 3d Minnesota Regiment in the war of the Rebellion). The firm was successfully engaged in the lumber business for about one year, owning and operating a saw-mill on the banks of the Mississippi. Mr. Upham was also engaged in the flour milling business for a time. In 1863, he became teller in the banking- house of Thompson Brothers, then the leading bankers at St. Paul. During 1863, the Thompson Brothers, with other capitalists, or- ganized the First National Bank of St. Paul, the first bank of this kind in Minnesota, and one of the earliest in the United States, its charter being numbered 203. The bank was started with a I I I 'A \ ) SM Upham Ginialooy. ! capital of $350,000. Mr. Upham was teller for two years from its organization, and then assistant cashier. In 1869, Mr. Upham, with others, aided in organizing the City Bank of St. Paul, of which he became cashier, the president being General H. H. Sibley. This bank was operated successfully for four years, when it was consolidated with the First National Bank, Mr. Upham be- coming one of the officers of the reorganized bank. After the death of James E. Thompson, in 1870, Horace Thompson became president, and in >873, Mr. Upham became cashier. After the death of Horace Thompson in 1880, Henry P. Upham was elected president, which position he has held continuously until the present time, and it is a recognized fact that the remarkable suc- cess of this bank is due to the excellent management and business ability of its president, with the aid of his associate officers and directors. At the present date the capital stock has quadrupled, with a surplus of $1,000,000, which is constantly increasing. In 1884, a large and well-constructed building was erected for the use of the bank, one of the most commodious, secure, and well-planned bank buildings in the West, suited to accommodate its extensive and rapidly growing business, with its necessarily large corps of at- taches. Among the business men of St. Paul, H. P. Upham stands as one of the foremost in ability and integrity, most enterprising and reliable, and at the same time most conservative. By these characteristics he has acquired a handsome fortune. It is not, however, in the business world alone where Henry P. Upham is known. He is familiar with books and authors, and owns a lar^e and carefully selected private library, to the con- tents of which he is no stranger. His especial interest is in the direction of historical and genealogical researches. With Ameri- can genealogy, it has been said, there is probably not one more familiar outside of the New England Historic Genealogical Society, at Boston, certainly there is not one more so in the West, and many families in the North-west are indebted to him for what they know of their origin, labor of this kind, to him, having been a labor of love. He has been for many years treasurer of the Minnesota State Historical Society, whose library comprises one of the most extensive collections of 'historical and genealogical works in the United States, probably second to none other than that of the New England Historical and Genealogical Society already re- ferred to; and it is to him almost exclusively, that this society is indebted for the watchful and painstaking labor which has resulted in the rare collection of valuable books, so rare that persons from a remote distance frequently send to St. Paul to have researches 4. ' *r Upham Genealogy. 389 4 4> made at this library. He is also an honorary member of the Worcester Society of Antiquity. In the preparation of this (Upham) Genealogy, Henry P. Up- ham's labor has been untiring, and his interest has never flagged; many " lines" of Uphams owe it to him alone that they find them- selves attached to the " main stem." His time and money have been liberally contributed, and the Upham posterity owe as much to him for the appearance of this book as to the compiler, though he declined the offer to have his name placed with that of the compiler on the title page. Mr. Upham's residence, on Summit avenue, is one of the handsomest in St. Paul, where, as he says, "the latch string is always out to the descendants of John Upham." Henry Pratt Upham and his wife, Evelyn Gertrude Burbank, had, all b. in St. Paul: I Gertrude, b. Oct. i, 1870. II Grace, b. Dec. 31, 1873. Ill John Phineas, b. Dec. 2, 1877. 441.

Upham went one voyage to sea, in the ship Enoch Train, from New York to Hong Kong, in 1872; the ship was dismasted by a typhoon in the China Sea, and afterward towed to Hong Kong by an Eng- lish steamer. He returned to the United States in 1873, and has been living in California since 1881, at Riverside, Los Angeles, San Diego and Mayiield.

The St. Paul Globe (Democratic) of Nov. 24, 1888, publishes the following notice of him: " Nathan Upham, lately elected to the Dakota legislative assem- bly by an overwhelming majority, was born at Great Village, N. S., Nov. 25, 1856. After attending the graded school in his native town until 14 years old, his time was mainly spent as a clerk in a store until he came to Dakota. He visited the Red River Valley in 1878, but did not stay. While on his way he became acquainted with W. R. Tweedlie, ex-register of deeds in Pembina county, who also returned to Ontario. After some correspondence, they determined to come out again in 1879, and took up land in Dray- ton township, where they lived and worked together until late in the fall, when Mr. Tweedlie returned to Ontario for his friends and stock. During his absence in the winter, Mr. Upham was emploved in hauling wheat for Budge, Eshelman & Co., who had 51 4oa Ufham Gbmbalogy. \'\ \\ ^w then started business in the new town of Acton. W. J. Anderson, one of the firm, being appointed receiver of the United States land office, Mr. Upham took Mr. Anderson's place in the store. In Nov., 1880, he was elected judge of probate for Pembina county, considered a very unimportant office. But as he was the only person who could take final proofs, or make loans between Pem- bina and Grand Forks, the business became extensive and profit- able. Upon the organization of Walsh county, in 1881, he re- signed the office and was appointed register of deeds for Walsh county, which office he held until 1886. During the latter period of his term he had acquired a farm of eight hundred acres in St. Andrews township, upon which he has resided for about three years. This is one of the best located and desirable properties in the Red River Valley outside of the railroad belt. He gives his exclusive attention to farming, not mere grain raising, having a herd of roc to 130 head of cattle, and living on the farm. He has been married nearly four years, and has one surviving child. He has been able to secure and maintain his popularity bjr inspir- ing confidence in his honesty and ability, and b^ unassuming and conciliatory address."

Nearly a quarter of a century has slipped away, since, after a prolonged absence which had begun at an early age, I spent a winter at home. I took that opportunity to question my father on the subject of his Upham ancestry — a matter about which I had always been curious, and of which I had often thought while in the far West. He could tell me little more than that his father came from Dudley, Massachusetts, and that there was a tradition that the family had originated in Wales; with the exception of an aunt, he had never seen any of his father's people, and knew very little about them. He was able, however, to tell me the names of his grandparents, and of his uncles and aunts — more than is usually known under such circumstances, as I have since had occasion to learn. I made notes of such information, and th' •:» notes have grown until they have formed the records in the pre^ieding pages, embracing grandfathers — "ready-made," so to speak — for an endless number of Uphams now living and yet to be born. The long-promised " Upham book " is at last an accomplished fact, and the labor has ceased; though the work could be extended indefinitely, and as long as the posterity of John Upham continue to be born, to marry, and to die. I send these last sheets to the publishers, and lay aside the work with satisfaction, though not without regret. Regret that I shall here part company, and in a certain sense cease to associate with the ancient worthies whom I have learned to know so well. The Johns, Phinehases, Richards, Thomases, Nathaniels, and others, who have left behind as unseen forces those hereditary influences which have characterized us to the present day — almost as with the hand of Destiny. In my wanderings from the Atlantic to the Pacific, from the British Columbia line to Mexico, and while at remote frontier stations, these have been with me, lo, these many years. Constant familiarity with their names and brief biographical records has caused them — with me — to seem to live again. I run through the generations mentally and recognize each individual, as the long procession passes in review. Theirs has been a shadowy but a pleasant companionship, and I shall miss it. hi %' Conclusion. 413 i I can see the stout-hearted John, his wife Elizabeth, and their little ones, and his sister Sara, as thev leave forever the ancestral home at Bickton, in old Devon, to join with the Hull colony, and find a home in that western world beyond the sea. Here, uncon- sciously to him, to take his place at the head of this large family. Then the brave Phinehas, the first-born American Upham, as he goes forth to fight in those early days of that war of races which was inevitable, and in which his descendants have not yet ceased to participate, helping to make civilization on this continent pos- sible, and moving with the star of empire on its westward course. I can see him wounded and bleeding on that fatal Sabbath morn- ing at the storming of the Narragansett fort — one of the greatest Indian conflicts in the history of this country, now almost for- gotten — borne in the arms of his comrades from the frozen field where he had so gallantly led his men and fought so well, over the snow red with the blood of two races. Carried hence to distant Maiden, there to die; his wife Ruth, widowed, his children father- less. Down to this point our ancestry is a common one; here the " lines " diverge, but I have followed them all, to the eleventh generation. And now, since the printing of the earlier pages of this book, comes from Old England the knowledge of a remoter ancestry, and a contemporaneous kindred, extending, as with us, down to the present generations. Our English kindred we hail with cor- dial greeting, and though for nearly three centuries the broad At- lantic has separated us, we claim the unity of blood. Soon we that live, and bear the name on both sides of the ocean must take our places in that silent company of which the earlier members have moved on — perhaps to know each other in a life beyond. During the progress of the work many changes have come — the original manuscript shows them. Death has been among us and gathered his harvest; even as I write, I stop to record the taking of one whose end has come — but whose life has been worthy. With a habit of scanning the obituary columns of the daily press I do it apprehensively, for several who have assisted in the prepa- ration of this genealogy, and have looked forward to its appear- ance with pleasurable anticipation, have already gone without being permitted to witness its completion. The compiling of a genealogy is a laborious though fascinating task. Those who appreciate its object are comparatively few, and one so engaged must be willing to work on without the incentive which might be furnished by a general co-operation on the part of those for whose benefit the work is intended. And yet the I i 414 Conclusion. accomplishment of this one has proved to be one of the satisfac- tions of a lifetime. If its effect is — as I have hoped it may be — to cause each one hearing the name of Upham to feel that he has a responsibility for bearing it creditably, then indeed will a prand object have been attained, and we may all adopt the sentiment of the New Brunswick Uphams : " If it is not in all mortals to command success, we will do more, deserve it."

SUPPLEMENT, SHOWING THE English Ancestry of John Upham, OF NEW ENGLAND, ENGLISH UPHAM GENEALOGY Fporn 1523 Down to th\o Ppoeent Tlrno. Also much Valuable Information Connected with the Uphams in England, only Recently Discovered. X,I<.>U -..,.,^»»4 * 'wmif^ ^p EXPLANATORY AND INTRODUCTORY. 4> When pages 7 to 18 — under the heading of " the name in Eng- land" — were sent to the publishers, it was with the hope that they might be useful in a search for the English ancestry of the American Uphams, should it ever be practicable to undertake one. But such a discovery was only regarded as a possibility of the indefinite future. It was little anticipated that even before these proof-sheets were corrected, this knowledge would be in our possession. Yet such is the case, and the book now includes not only the identified ancestry of the emigrant John Upham for sev- eral generations, with indications of a still more remote trace of the family, but also an English genealogy of very considerable scope, showini? the Uphams from an early period down to the present date, chereby adding immensely to the interest and value of this as a record of the Uphams of England and America. For this importan: knowledge we are indebted to the persever- ance and untiring labor of our young kinsman, William Upham Reynell-Upham, Esq. — whose ancestry is shown — until recently living at his home in Bristol, England, but now in the United States, where he brought with him all the records which follow, and has since his arrival here taken the time — important to his personal interests — to arrange for publication in these pages. Before leav- ing England he spent fourteen weeks in his voluntary and self- imposed task of searching the various sources of information, and it is sincerely hoped that the valuable service which he has con- tributed will be appreciated. At this place I take pleasure in recording the wish of Mr. Reynell- Upham that the valued assistance which he received from the following-named gentlemen should be acknowledg;ed, viz. : Dr. T. N. Brushfieid, of Budleigh, Salterton, who searched the Budleigh records for him, and afterward sent him a number of names which he had found; the Rev. R. Hobhouse, of St Ive, Cornwall, who sent him full details of Upham farm, etc.; Arthur Burch, Esq, bishop's secretary, who gave him access to the bishop's transcripts, visita- tion books, etc., preserved at the Diocesan Registry, Exeter; the record keeper, Somerset House, London, who gave him permission 'l&w 420 Explanatory and Introductory. ? "■-, ' 5 — only granted in special cases — to extract details from the Pro- bate Calendars; and others. A notable feature of the *' new lijjht " is the fact which appears that the wife of our ancestor, John Upham, of New England, was not Elizabeth Webb, as " assumed " so confidently on page 34, but Elizabeth Slade. The mistake was a natural one, still it is only another illustration of the often-repeated lesson, that no assumption is safe in genealogical researches, frequently so strangely misleading. In this connection I will only invite atten- tion to what is mentioned on page 34: " John Upham, to have been the uncle of Joseph, the son of Richard Webb, must either have married the sister of the said Richard Webb, or Richard Webb must have married the sister of John Upham." With reference to Sara, the sister of John Upham, mentioned in her father's will, as well as in the passenger list from England, it is suggested, as will be seen, that " she may have become the wife of Richard Webb." With regard to the Rev. Joseph Hull, as already seen on page 19, he had been for eleven years rector at Northleigh, which posi- tion he resigned in 1632, "and gathering a company of devoted followers," etc., sailed with them for this country two years later. Northleigh — pronounced Norley — is about ten miles from Bickton, and what seems more natural than that John Upham, then a young married man with a growing family, a younger son, with little prospect of succeeding to the limited ancestral acres at Bickton, should have been induced to join his fortunes with those of the Hull Colony. Whether the Puritan movement of the day toward New England was wholly the cause of this may be ques- tioned. Until two years prior to his departure from England, Mr. Hull had been in the established church. On page 24 it also appears that he was afterward, in 1659, having returned to Eng- land, again identified with the Episcopacy as rector of St. Buryan's, Cornwall. While we know that for many years prior to his death, John Upham was a deacon in the New England Congregational church, there remains a reasonable doubt as to his religious tendencies in England. None of the members of his father's family seem to have been identified with those who had aban- doned the Episcopal forms, and his uncle Thomas lived and died as a clergyman of the established church. It is interesting to observe how the names have been repeated through the numerous successive generations. Nathaniel, so usual among the American Uphams, seems to have come in with the Slade ancestry in England, and to have continued with the I Explanatory and Introductory. 421 Richards, Johns and Thomases down to the present time. Phy- nehas seems to be purely American in its introduction, and to have been unknown among the English Uphams. The suggestion near the bottom of page 47, as to the origin of this name, seems now even more probable. F. K. UPHAM.

We took down the whole list of the taxpayers in the parish of " holebrok " where this Robert Uphom* was living in 1332, (6th Ed.

Next to the above list came " Boddl," (Budley) with its taxpayers, not however containing any Uphams or Uphoms. An examination of tiie hundred of East Budleigh on the map of Devon, reveals a parish named Halbrook near Sowton, and a little tq the south of it we note " Wynslade House " marked. *This Robert Uphom was probably living there in 1327, for the lay Sub- sidy in I Ed.

" Jn all humble manner complayninge sheweth that your orator George Upham of Wiveliscombe in the county of Somerset, yeo- man &c." The substance of this complaint is that one Joseph Hunt of Braunton in Co Devon yeoman " three yeares last past " owned a house and "some four score" acres of land pasture &c. in the parish of Wiveliscombe and as he lived 40 or 50 miles away from it and " beinge a very sicke man at that tyme and by reason of the troubles then beinge in the kingdome no man was able to travel quietlie, or in peace to abide att home " the said Hunt had the house and ground on his hands tenantless and getting jut of repair so Ann Hunt his wife by the direction and appointment of the said Joseph went to Geo. Upham being a near kinsman of the said Joseph Hunt and earnestly entreated him to get a good tenant and lease the property and if unable to find a tenant that he would look after it, repair the house make the best of the land, take down trees for making and mending of gates and barr posts and make the best of the woods furze and broom growing there- upon and pay the great taxes and that whatever he disbursed should be paid him again. All this George Upham undertook " uppon the entreatie soe made by the sayd Ann with the consent and approbation of her husband the said Joseph." He tried to get a tenant but " noe man would deale or meddle therein by reason of the tymes." Upon which G. Upham took possession of the house and land made all needful repairs " tooke downe one timber tree for the doinge thereof " paid the rates and taxes dis- charged the quarteringe of soldiers and expended of his own money some six or seven pounds more than he made out of the place. G. Upham asserts that notwithstanding all his trouble f ! Upham Gknbalooy. 437 taken when " noe man would meddle therein " the said Joseph Hunt hath in a most manner commenced an action against him for entering the house, treading down the grass, cutting down timber &c. The said J. Hunt pursuing his action with all violence and extremity and refusing to come to any account with the compl' for the money that he had disbursed or any part thereof " contrarie to all righte equitie and good conscience." He ac- knowledges that he has no evidence to prove that the said Joseph Hunt gave such directions to his wife except the confession and acknowledgment of the said J. Hunt made to him in private with- out calling witness thereto, but hopes that the said Joseph and Ann Hunt will upon their several oaths speak nothmg but the truth. He prays for his majestys most gracious writ of subpoena to be directed to the said defendants commanding them and any of them to appear at a certain day &c before the hon.

After whose decease the house and lands in the said bill of Compl' named came into the possession of the defendant Joseph Hunt. Shortly after Ann Hunt with consent of her husband demised the said house and land to one John Tutbole of Wivlescombe Co Somerset, husbandman he pay- ing Jos. Hunt 4s. per week while in possession.

When the latter heard of it Ann Hunt with approval of her hus- band went to Wivlescombe to see Upham entered the premises and demanded possession on behalf of her husband but the compl' knowing that Hunt was sick and unable to travel, taking advan- tage of the latter's distance from the house and lands and the un- happy state of the Kingdom refused to yield possession, and had received the profits for one year value j£io and carried away wood and growing timber value j£to.

The complain- ant states also that he together with James Upham the younger, Leonard ffarmer, Henry Cannington and Aquilla Upham as sure- ties for the said complainant became bound to the said Samuel Tanner, Richard Lee and W" Sanford, in a bond or obligation for the sum of one thousand two hundred pounds with condition to render to the said treasurers a just account of the money col- lected and to give acquittances for such. And shortly after the complainant with James Upham the younger who was then a minor proceeded to collect the charitable benevolences upon the authority aforei,iid. According to a contract made betweene the complainant and the treasures he was to have thirtene pence for " every brief e which they should lay disperse and gather " out of every parish church or chapel within the aforesaid places," the said sum being also in consideration of their " travel payaes and expenses in and about the same."

Moreover there were briefs for the > iwnc of Northampton Cottingham, Co Cambridge and Southwark whose losses were considerable and the people gave largely so that this of Topsham (being but a few ragged houses) did not excite their compassion although the compl' says that his trouble and labor in collecting was increased by the opposition he met with. The compl' furthermore states : that the losses by the fire at Topsham we i e not a third of the amount asserted and that most of the sufferers were well able to bear it: that the adjacent and neighboring parishes contributed little or nothing because they were better informed than those who lived remote from it: that in particular the parish of ffarringdon being two or three miles from Topsham " where the said Samuel Tanner, dwells and is a parishioner " gave not so much as one penny towards the said losses.

The complainant Margaret Upham of Wivlescombe, Co Somerset widow states that thirty years since there was a tre:.ty of marriage between Thomas Hewes of Laurance Lydeard in said county yeoman and one Joane Smyth widow who had a lif interest in a messuage tene- nent and certain lands in Tolland and Laurance Lideard Co Somerset valued at ;^3o per annum, the said Thomas Hewes be- ing also seised of a copyhold tenement in Laurance Lideard valued at ;^2o per an. and by custom of the manor Tho Hewes' wife would have her widows estate in the said copyhold on the death of her husband. Thos Hewes married Joane Smyth and then resolving to defraud his wife of her widows estate and make void his marriage agreement yielded up his estate in Laurance Lideard to the lord of the manor and retook the same to John Hewes his son now deceased. After some disputes Joan Hewes went to her friends and relatives and they endeavoured to get Thomas Hewes to make over to trustees the property he held in right of his wife, for the benefit of her children. Joane consulted her brother Henry Rew and her brother-in-law John Upham the husband of the complainant and told them she had chosen them to hold the lands and tenement in trust on behalf of her and her children They consented on her importunity and it was decided that this would make peace in the Hewes family — So Thomas Hewes about May 47*'' year James L by indenture made between the said Thomas Hewes of the one part and Henry Rew and John Upham of the other part demise grant &c to the said Henry Rew and John Upham all that messuage tenement with garden orchard, meadows & pasture thereto belonging in the parish of Tolland and Laurence Hideard aforesaid for 30 years thenceforth at a yearly rent of ;^io. Henry Rew and John Upham became parties to a bond of value jC^oo for the true performance of the terms of the said indenture. Neither J. Upham nor H. Rew ever held the property by virtue of the said lease but allowed Joane Hewes to keep possession and Joane regularly paid the rent to her husband until about 4 years before the death of Thomas Hewes (which occurred about 1633) when there was some j£4 owing and a new wi^ •^r 446 Upham Genealogy. agreement was entered into whereby Thomas Hewes was content to receive ;^6-i3-4 as rent from thenceforward as she had *' a great charge of children to witte seven by one John Smyth her former husband and five by the said Thomas Hewes." Joane Hewes never made any demands upon the trustee John Upham and Henry Rew in their lifetime well knowing that nothing was done, but since the death of Thomas Hewes his son and his execu- tor having obtained the bond put it in execution at the common lawe against the complainant Margaret Upham she being executor of her late husband John Upham and reeks to recover the whole forfieture thereof contrary to all equity and good conscience.

These records are the result of an enactment passed in 1603, " that the churchwardens shall within one month after the 25"* of March in each year transmit to the Bishop of the Diocese, or his Chancellor, a true copy from the Register Book for the year then ended; and that failing to do so the Bishop or his Chancellor may proceed against them at law." If this had been rigidly enforced and the transcript preserved from damp and neglect, we should possess a most valuable series of records which would supply de- tails where the original register is lost or mutilated by fire, damp &c. Unfortunately however this rule was very loosely observed, and those sent in did not receive the care their value demanded, but were skewered together in bundles and left to rot with damp dust and neglect. The subjoined is the result of a careful exami- nation of those sent in from parishes in the Archdeaconry of Exc ter which has suffered more than the other archdeaconries in the way of mildewed decay and many years are altogether absent. 161 1, Filleigh Mary daughter of Anthony Upham & Joan his wife bp 20"' Aug. i6i 1, Chittlehampton. • Ales Uphome the daughter of W° Uphome bp Oct 13 . 16 1 3, St. Giles' John Upham was buried 2 i^April. 1614, Plymouth (St Andrews).

In the Consistorial Court Records preserved in Exeter Cathe- dral in the case of Peankette v. Kennicke the testimony taken 8 Dec. 1676, is entered of Roger I', ham of Cadbury Co. Devon Yeoman aged 43 who stated that I' vas sent for by one Richard Marshall, to bring writing material.', fc ' take down his will. Roger Upham went as desired and found Marshall in declining health, the latter requesting him to come again as his wife was about, and the occasion was unfavourable. Upham called some days after, and finding Marshall in his garden, the latter informed him that " he was afraid he should scarce have an opportunity to make a will in writing, his wife was so averse to it and therefore he would declare his will by word of mouth .0 this deponent and then forth- with declared to this deponent that he did give to the poor of Cadbury tenne pounds to remaine to iliem forever, the interest to be distributed to them in bread, ^10 for his funeral and all y* rest of his goods and chattels he gave and bequeathed among his wife and children, appoyntinge Lawrence Marshall of Rockley, Pomeroy, and Thomas Marshall of T "irton, his executors in trust, and he declared to this deponent very seriously beinge of p-fect mind and memory, and with an intent as this deponent believes. 468 Upham Genealogy. that y* same should stand for his last will and testament nuncu- pative and the testator desired the deponent to take notice of it and to use his best endeavours that the same might be performed. This witness Roger Upham beinge worth about ^loo came to give his evidence in this cause being first summoned to this effect by a decree issued out of this court. In another case that of Major v. Bradford, William Dilling of Otterton, Devon, yeoman ag<;d 69, giving evidence 26 Sept 1676 deposed that he knew James Bradford deceased sometime \ icar of Cadbury for about 39 years before his decease and was parish clerk of Bicton where M"" W" Bradford was and still is rector for almost twenty years next before the death of the said James Brad- ford with whom the deponent affirms he was intimate and well acquainted with his handwriting and hesaith that all or the greater part of the "little booke " in this cause exhibited upon which he IS now examined was written by the said James Bradford and that the letters R. U. herein mentioned at y* place alleged doe signify and stand for the name of Roger, Robert or Richard Upham alleged and this dep' believes that by what is sett down and ex- pressed in the said booke next after the said letters viz. a mor- tuary ph., amongst other things is signified and meant that the sum of x\;ii;s ilfuiord from y" said Uuham a parishioner of Cadbury for a m-' . *i..n¥ on the decease of his mother or other relation dying in tho J.iu I /.iiish." Other witnesses followed with evidence to sliow thar Mk- iaid letters did not have the meaning attributed to them and tiiut "mortuary" the olden custom of paying a fee to the clergyman on the death of a parishioner had not existed. 1756, Dec. 5'". 1757, Nov. 19'" »776, July 31"' BiDEFORD Marriages.

The rector informs us that East and West Ujiham are two small farms containing respectively 24 and 51 acres belonging to a family named Mallack of Tavistock, according to the tithe rental the ownership being in " the trustees of the late Richard Mallack. Bicton a farm of 355 acres with 160 acres of wood belongs to Lord Compton in right of his wife only child of Lord Ashburton. Upham is called Tipham by the common peoj^le.

The first of the name at Bic- ton that we have found mentioned, Richard Uphome (sic) of Bykton, died there in 1546; but although in 1791 their copyhold fell into the hands of the then lord of the manor — John, afterwards Baron Rolle — and most of the family had by that time left Bicton, one branch yet remained, the last survivor of which, Frances, daughter of Richard and Martha Upham, died there in 1842. Bicton is a parish four miles south west of Sidmouth station, on the South Western Railway, and 1 1 miles south east of Exeter, in'the eastern division of the county of Devon, hundred of East Budleigh, petty sessional division of Woodbury, union of St. Thomas', Exeter County Court District, rural deanery of Ayles- beare, and archdeaconry and diocese of Exeter. It is beautifully situated on the banks of the river Otter, and near the sea coast. It includes the hamlet of Yettington. Population 181 in 1871, 165 in 1881, living in 32 houses, on 1294 acres of land. The soil is sand, subsoil sand and gravel. The crops are wheat, barley and roots. At the time of the Norman Survey the manor of Bicton was held by the singular tenure of providing a county jail, which tenure was abolished by act of Parliament in 1787. " The possessor of the manor at Doomsday survey was William Portiter. King Henry I gave it to John Janitor. It continued in his family for three generations. The manor was afterwards the property of Ralph Balistarius, or Le Balister (the crossbow-bearer), who lived here in 1229. His posterity, by name Alabaster, possessed Bicton for five generations, after which it passed by successive female heirs to Sachville and Copleston. It was purchased of the Coplestons by Sir Robert Dennis, who rebuilt the old mansion, inclosed a deer-park and made Bicton his chief residence. Sir Thomas Dennis, his son, gave it to his eldest daughter Ann, who became the wife of Sir Henry Rolle, ancestor of the Right Hon. * Spelt Eatenton in Will of John Uppom 1585. 47a Upham Genealogy.

It seems probable therefore that the wife of the Rev Thomas Upham came of the Kingston, Devon branch of the Rowes of Kent, as her father used the old Devon Rowe arms, with the crest of the Kentish family. In Pulman's " Book of the Axe," we find that Edward Rowe Junr was not presented to the Vicarage of Axmouth im- mediately after the death of his father according to the will of the latter but that on Nov 13'h 1706, W"> England was presented. Probably Ed. Rowe Jun' was not fully ordained, for England seems only to have been a stop- gap, and Edward Rowe was appointed (on Englands resignation) Jan 31'' 1709-10 He died 1730.

V Thomas of Offwell, Serge manufacturer, married at Cotleigh near Honiton, Devon, 29'*' April 1735, to Susanna Warram and was buried at Oflfwell 28"" March 1777. He was frequently called upon to serve as churchwarden at Offwell. He was either overseer or churchwarden in 1721, 1722, 1723, 1724, 1732-34, and signed allowing the churchwardens accounts to pass. He was overseer for M' J. Ford's estate 1738, and overseer for M' J. Ford's estate, and M' John Baileigh's estate 1745. Churchwarden again in 1746. We find him assessed for poor rate at different times for lands called Cherlands or Chorlands, Mayons and Raddons but a portion of the last two seems also to have belonged to his brother Joseph, as he paid part of the poor rate on them. In the churchwardens disbursements for 1740 we found: — "M' Upom for his printis peter Dimond j£4-" M' Thomas Upham is also men- tioned in a " List of the estates (as it comes in turn) to do the office of overseer and churchwarden." We find him mentioned as churchwarden or overseer again at diflferent times until 1759. (Extracted from Parish accounts, Offwell 1732-1768). His wife Susanna was buried at Oflfwell 14"' April 1762.

He was a contributor to the Asiatic Journal, Lond. Gentleman's Magazine and other periodicals. An article of his on the North West- Upham Genealogy. 493 I ern District of China, with map in the Oct. issue of Gent. Mag. for 1832, was subsequently published in separate form. Between the publication of these productions he was engaged upon the very laborious task of completing the Index to the Rolls of Parlia- ment which had been left unfinished by Rev. Jno. Pridden F. S. A., after he had been employed on it for 30 years. M' Upham undertook the task on M' Pridden 's death in 1821; and completed it in 1832. M' Upham died at Bath, January 24*" 1834, probably while staying with his brother John. In an obituary notice in the Gentlemans Magazine it states that it was related of him that when officiating in his mayoralty on the bench with the learned judges of the circuit, the erudition he displayed ex- cited their astonishment. After speaking of his literary labours it continues: — " It is a matter of deep regret to all who had the pleasure of his ac- quaintance that his literary exertions should have been trammelled and weakened by severe mental and corporeal sufferings for many years. Calm and placid in his demeanour, cheerful in the company of those he esteemed, and possessed of high moral rectitude, a genuine philanthropy, and a truly Christian piety, he was respected while living, and now will be much regretted." His Will was proved March 1834 in the Principal Registry Som. Hse London. He bequeaths ;^iSo to Janette Thompson Upham. Residue to brother John whom he makes executor. See Gent. Mag.

Upham Genealogy. 495 In 1797, John Ford Upham was Lieutenant, Sidbury Volunteers. His name is mentioned on some presentation colours given by his relatives. The flag which is in good preservation is of yellow silk and on the one side beneath the Royal Arms, is the inscription: — Presented by J. P. Manley, Esq. & W" Guppy, Esq. 1797, Lords of the manor of Sidbury, Devon." On the reverse side the in- scription runs : " John Pearse Manley, Capt. Commandant, Lieut* Upham, Lieut Guppy, Artillery Capt Robert Manley. Sidbury Volunteers." Of his second wife — Elizabeth (Welman) little is known except that his marital relations with her were not marked by the same comfort and felicity that he enjoyed with his first wife Honor. It was said, though it is hoped without foundation, that she used to grease the house steps on the chance of her husband falling and breaking his neck upon them. She was not popular ip the neighborhood, and on J. F. Uphams death it is believed she returned to her own people. He was Captain of the Sidbury Volunteers in 1804, and the portrait given, executed in the Octo- ber of that year, by his artist son, M' John W. Upham, represents him in the quaint uniform of his regiment. He was fondof hunt- ing and frequently out with the hounds, kept by his brother-in-law John Guppy of Roncombe. Old letters also show that it was his custom to make frequent journeys with one of his daughters upon the saddle with him — to call upon the old folks at Bicton. His Will dated 8"" March 1814 was proved in the Archdeaconry Court, Exeter, 18"" May 1820, by John Pidgeon, gent., one of the executors. He left the house at Offwell with the orchards, fields and pasture belonging thereto, the lands in the occupation of Henry Hodge as his tenant, and all other his lands of inheritance wheresoever situated. In trust to John Pidgeon of Honiton, gent, and Henry Hodge of Offwell, Yeoman, to sell and dispose of the same, and after deducting expenses pay the residue in equal shares to his sons J. W. Upham, and Jonas Upham, and his daughter Mary Upham. Appoints John Pidgeon and Henry Hodge, ex- ecutors. He disposed of the Greatwell estate in Ottery St. Mary during his life subject to a rentcharge which expired on his death. M"" J. W. Upham was the purchaser of the remains of the Offwell property which comprised the house, two orchards and the old Park with other lands in Offwell. By Honor his i" wife he had: — I John William Upham, landscape painter in water- colour, born at Offwell Jany 21" 1773. He early exhibited a talent for art, as in a somewhat less degree did most of his brothers and sisters, who 49« UPHAM GeN£ALOOV. survived infancy. While still young he became warmly attached to a Miss Anne Rrnell, the eldest daughter of an Exeter attorney, a member of one of the oldest and most famous Devonshire families; but owing partly to the defective postal facilities of the period, the afTair came to an early termination. For on one occasion he sent his next brother, Jonas, who happened to have business in that direction, with a letter to Miss Renell who found the messenger more delightful than the message. It may be that like Pricilla the Puritan maiden, who when in a similar predicament said "Why don't you speak for your- self John " she gave the messenger some encourage- ment, at all events she placed her affections with Jonas, and ultimately married him instead of M' J. W. Upham. The latter felt the disappointment keenly, and though he came in time to forgive his brother, he did not forget the injury and never mar- ried. Soon after this frustration of his hopes he left home and travelled on the continent, practising his art the while. Returning he settled at Wey- mouth, Dorset, as an artist, and idt.'ntified himself with every undertaking for the bea^iit of the youth of the locality, notably the Weymouth and Malcombe Regis National and Church Sunday Schools, among the founders of which institution he was most prom- inent. His Majesty King George III with his con- sort and family having visited Weymouth for the first time in 1789 being greatly pleased with the place ultimately made it his marine residence, and M' J. W. Upham was appointed Professor of Draw- ing and painting to H. R. H. the Princess Augusta. Some of M' Uphams larger pictures published in 1801 were dedicated, by permission, to his Royal pupil. In 1804, M' Upham was engaged in com- pany with Prout, Varley and other artists in illus- trating the " Beauties of England and " Wales " (an important work published in about 20 vols 8 vo by Vernor & Hood & others Lond. 1801-1818. In the Introduction to the same work by I. Norris Brewer, F. V. A., Lond. 18 18. Preface p. xxxiv M' J. W. Upham is acknowledged as a contributor of literary and local information for the county of 1 •- i>Wil,i'"g-'~ — Upham Genealooy. 497 by In 63 Dorset. A water-colour portrait of H. R. H. the Princess Augusta, and another of H. R. H. with a brother at her side, both by M' Upham are in the possession of the present representative of this Une. Some subjects in sepia after Gainsborough, dedicated to all his pupils were published in 181 1. He pub- lished many views of Weymouth, and he depicted the mountain scenery of North Wales and Switzer- land, also choice parts of Devon and Cornwall, the Channel Islands, France, Belgium and Holland. He died after a lingering illness on Jany 5"" i8a8. For a just estimate of his character and life we cannot do better than give the remarks of the county paper on the event: — ' Died on the 5"* inst., universally and deeply lamented, M' J. W. Upham, many years resident professor of drawing and painting in this town (Wey- mouth) Endeared as he was to all classes by the urbanity and kindness of his manner, his death has caused a blank in society that will be long and sor- rowfully felt. The excellency of his character is more fully shown than words can express by the intense interest and heartfelt sorrow his death has excited among almost every inhabitant of this place. But the loss of this worthy man will be also most severely felt by an Institution that we may almost say was founded by him — certainly to his talent constant and unwearied care and attention the Wey- mouth National School is most essentially indebted for that pre-eminent situation in which it stands, for moral and religious improvement. The whole tenor of his life appeared grounded on the princi- ples of rectitude and truth, and the great resignation to the will of God during his protracted illness showed how firmly he trusted in the mercies and promises of his Redeemer — and the calmness and serenity with which he departed this life (for he died without a groan, a struggle or a sigh) lead us to hope " his trust is not in vain in the Lord." — Dorset County Chronicle Jany 10"* 1828. His Will dated 3** July 1824, was proved in the Principal Registry Som. Hse. London March 1828. He bequeaths all his effects whatsoever to Matthew I I 498 » »4 II III Upham Genealooy. Virtue, of Melcombe, Re(;is, musician, and Benjamin Barlow of the same, wine merchant. Upon trust that after jiayment of i-xpcnses his effects be divided into eleven equal parts. He gives four of such parts to his brother Jonas Upham, two to sister Anna Stone (this not because he has less regard for her but as his father made better provision for her in his lifetime than he did for Jonas) Residue to sister Mary wife of Major Saml Fox H.

" The first of this family on record: Sir Richard Reyneil of Pytlney Co. Somerset, flourished in the reigns of Henry II and Richard I, anil during the absence of the lat- ter in the Holy Land, had the custody of the castles of Exeter and Launces- tondelivcied to him 1191. These castles he stoutly defended against John, Earl of Moreton, the King's brother, who in the monarch's absence endeav- oured to usurp the sovereign power. On the death of Richard, and the accession of John, the latter remembering the par' which this Sir Richard Reyneil had taken against him, deprived him of his estates at Pyttney. This Sir Richd. Reyneil was sherilF of Devon 1191-1194. His son Sir Richard Reyneil had his father's lands restored to him by King John, on condition that he should serve him with one horse and armour for one year, as appears by his deed datid at Bined. 27'!' July 1214, a copy of which is in the Harleian M. S S. No 1195. A great grandson of this gentleman Sir Hugh Reyneil Kt., was (irand Master and Governor of the Knights of St. John of Jerusalem in 1275. There is a small harbour in Malta still called by his name (Renellc). The inheritance of the Reynells says Prince "has decreased by their long following the French Wars and their liberality to their retinue and soldiers exhausted a great part viz: the lands which came by Alan de Fran9ois." Several branches still exist though their numerous and vast possessions in the counties of Cambridge, York, Warwick, Som- erset, Devon and Cornwall have passed with heiresses into other families or been otherwise alienated," (Hurke's Hist. Com.) The last male in the elder line of this ancient family: — Lieut. Gen. Sir Thomas Reyneil, Bart, K. C. B. was wounded at Waterloo, in command of the 7i»t Highland Light Infantry and inniiediately after the battle was decorated with the in- signia of a Knight of the Austrian Older of Maria Theresa and of the order of St. George, on the recommendation of the Duke of Wellington. Sir Thomas married 12"' Feb. 1831, Lady Elizabeth Pack, daughter of George, I"' Marquis of Watcrford, and widov.-of M.'.jor (Jen Sir Denis Pack, K. C. B. Sir Thomas Reyneil diec'. without issue at his seat Avisford near Arundel, on Feb. 10"', 1848, and the Baronetcy, one distinguished from its creation by lawyers, statesmen, and warriors, became extinct.

SOI to Oxford, as was originally intended. Soon after going to Bris- tol he joined Mess" Lucas Bros., shipbuilders. Canons Marsh, and eventually took an active part in the management of the business until his decease. He enjoyed excellent health, and scarcely had a days illness in his life, so that it was a great siiock to his family when one day he was conveyed home from the office unconscious from an apoplectic seizure, from which he only recovered con- sciousness at the last to wish his affectionate and sorrowing rela- tives farewell, passing peacefully away on the 5"" Dec. 1838. He was a man of something over six feet in height, and proportion- ately well developed, with fair hair, noble forehead, blue grey eyes and acquiline nose. The portrait given is taken from an oil painting by James Curnock, a portrait painter of some note, and a friend of M' Upham's. He had mental qualities of a high order, and had it not been for a love of quiet retirement (too character- istic of many of his family) he might have achieved greater success and would not have relied upon expectations of large inheritance destined never to be fulfilled. However he was widely respected and beloved, and departed with a cheerful hope of a future life. His deeply religious nature, almost Puritan in severity, with a firmly rooted hatred of all show and ostentation, was combined with great cheerfulness and love of fun, which made him a favor- ite with children, and in his youth gained him the nickname of "Mirth." He possessed great tact, and capability of calm and judicious judgment, and it is said the influence of his kindly nature was such that there was no possibility of quarreling in his pres- ence. He was for about 30 years, deacon in the congregational church, and his wife deaconess, and the minister's right hand in all good works. They lie buried together with all their children in the family vault, Brunswick Square Cemetery, Bristol. Jonas Upham and Ann his wife had: 16 I John William of Carleton House, Bristol.

John William" Upham (Jonas'", John F.', John', Richard', Thomas', Richard', Thomas*, Richard', John', Richard'), of Carlton House, Bristol — born at Bristol, Dec 27"' 1802, secre- tary and librarian of the Bristol Institution for the Advancement of Science Literature and the Arts. He was named John William after M"" J. VV. Upham of Wyke Regis, Dorset, artist, his paternal uncle, and was educated with the expectation of entering the counting house of his maternal uncle M' Robert Prudom Renell, head of the then well known firm of R. P. Renell & Co. English and foreign merchants, 12 Mark Lane London, and at Gibraltar, Barcelona, Lisbon and Baltimore, U. S. A. This did not meet the views of a younger brother M' W. Trehawke Renell, (a polished linguist but lacking business aptitude) who, during the illness of his brother, had managed two of the foreign branches so that they had to be closed — one after the other — at a loss, causing his retirement from the firm. So he contrived to postpone indefinitely his nephew Upham's entry into the business. However, M' R. P. Renell having amassed an ample fortune made his nephew J. W. Upham his heir, and by will provided also for his sisters. Mean- while M' Upham became secretary and librarian of the Bristol Literary Scientific and Philosophical Inst, intending it as a tem- porary occupation. Upon the death, in 1836, of M*" Robert P. Renell, it was found that the will had been obtained by bribery from the clerk at the office and suppressed. M" Jonas Upham arrived in London to find her brother's body unattended to, while the house vas being ransacked of plate and all available valuables. It was represented that affairs were in confusion, and that there was little or nothing for anybody. The Uphams not caring i- Upham Genealogy. 503 to enter upon a costly lawsuit, took no action in the matter. The misguided individual who seized upon everything, did not live long to enjoy his ill gotten gains, for the clerk who gave up the will, mentioned the facts to a friend, and the latter used the in- formation to extort money, under threat of exposure to the Up- hams, demanding larger and larger sums, until one day the said individual, aftr . paying a demand for _;^2ooo, distracted lest he should soon be nable to meet his business engagements, died by his own hand. M' Upham's prospects of Renell property having thus dissolved, he settled down at the beforementioned Lit. Sci. & Philos. Instit. and continued secretary librarian and general manager there for upwards of forty years, a great part of the time doing the work of curator, for as the old shareholders and friends of the Institution dropped off there was no strife among the citizens to supply their places, consequently the Institution got poorer, and rigid economy had to be exercised all round. Thus the willing horse was worked to death. He scarcely took a day's holiday all the years he was at the Institution, and had he yielded to the solicitations of friends (who perceived his health failing) and taken rest and change, his life might have been prolonged for many years. In 1862, the mem- bers of the Institution feeling compelled to recognize M' Upham's long and devoted services in a becoming manner, presented him with a purse and a richly chased salver inscribed: Presented with the sum of one hundred guineas by the members of the Bristol Institution for the Advancement of Science, Literature and the Arts to M' J"" W" Upham as a Testimonial of the respect and regard entertained by the Society for his faithful services to the Institution during a period of thirty nine years February 1863. He remained at the head of the Institution until, early in 1866, failing health compelled him to resign. The loss of his eldest sister Mary, who died on the s'** June 1866, was a great shock to him, for he was devotedly fond of her. This hastened his death, which occurred on the 23"''' of the same month. He was a man of medium height, with clear cut features and brown curly hair. In early youth he developed a taste for art and studied under the artist W" MUller. He chiefly painted in oils, and sea pictures with shipping were his favorite subjects, though later in life he _,TOii.««*w«(«1«"»m«- ! 504 Upham Genealogy. took up portraiture, and in this favoured the Dutch school. He possessed great mechanical talent, and spent many spare hours for some years repairing a fine model of a British war ship the " Melampus," which he had purchased inadelapidated condition. The model had originally been built by some French prisoners of war. It was built to scale in every detail and each man had his own special work on it. His varied talents and generous, kindly nature endeared him to a large circle of friends, and the frequency with which he was required to act as trustee bore evi- dence to the solidity and uprightness of his character. He mar- ried at St. Paul's Ch. Portland Square, Bristol April i5"» 1841, Mercy, only child of James Pearce, or Pierce, by Mary his wife, only daughter of William Williams, Esq. of Velindre, Brecon N. Wales. (Mercy Upham b. March 12*'' 1812. d. July 7**' 184a,) by whom he had issue: Mary Anne Renell Upham, born January 22"* 184a, married at Victoria Wesleyan Church, Clifton. Sept 4'" 1866, William Withers Jones, M. P. S. (Lond ■853). (b. Aug 19*"" 1830. d. May 5*" 1892,) elder son of Richard Jones Esq of Rhyston, Co. Salop, by his wife Anne Withers, only daughter of Lieut. Richard Edwards, of H. M. 7'" West India Regt., and niece of Lieut Col. John Edwards, of H. M. 80"' Regt. They had issue: 1. William Upham, b. Dec 30"' 1867. He was until recently a medical student in Bristol, but is now in the United States, where he arrived, September 18"' 1892. He is a student of architecture at the school of the Art Institute at Chicago, 111. By legal process, he has taken the surname of Reynell-Upham in lieu of that of Jones for the reasons : First, that represent- ing a branch of those families it seemed fit that his name should indicate the fact. Second, that " the honorable and honored name of Jones (as a barrister once said) is so undistinguishable by reason of its multitudinousness." He was the compiler of the English supplement to this genealogy. 2. Florence Ellen, b. June 13"' 1869. 3. Gertrude Emily Clara, b. Oct 26'^'' 1874.
