 preface. 
 
 j|rOR over ten years the compiler has been collecting the data 
 ^31 for this book. The materials for the earlier part of the work 
 have been drawn almost entirely from vital records, probate 
 records, land records and other original sources. The chief sources 
 of information covering the last century have been Bible records 
 and statements furnished by various members of the family. 
 
 The author has been kindly assisted in collecting materials 
 by the following persons: George Chapel Wickware of San 
 Francisco, Cal. ; Harry H. Wickwire, Attorney General of Nova 
 Scotia; Theodore H. Wickwire of Cortland, N. Y. ; Mrs. Charles 
 Walton Sanders, nee Wickwire, of New York City; Edward L. 
 W^ickwire of Chicago, III. ; Dr. William Nathan Wickwire of Hali- 
 fax, Nova Scotia; Charles M. Wickwire of Waterville, N. Y.; Hon. 
 Newton R. Wickwire of Hamilton, N. Y.; Mrs. James W. Robot- 
 tom, nee Wickware, of Jersey City, N. J.; Manley Horatio Wick- 
 wire of Sheffield, Mass., and by many others who have done what 
 they could to facilitate the work. To all these the author ex- 
 presses his grateful acknowledgments. 
 
 Great pains have been taken to copy with fidelity the records 
 examined and materials furnished. It is to be observed, however, 
 that when information is drawn from hundreds of sources, some 
 errors will inevitably creep in. Any reader discovering an error 
 is earnestly requested to send the correction to the author. 
 
 The plan of arrangement is that usually followed by similar 
 works. All the members of each generation are dealt with before 
 the next generation is taken up. The black-faced numerals refer 
 to heads of families; and each such numeral will be found first
 
 where the name first appears as that of a son or daughter; and 
 next in its proper order as the head of a family. Thus Captain 
 Joseph first appears at page 81 as the son of Peter, and is num- 
 bered 15; and secondly at page 90, he appears as head of his 
 family, — the 15th family treated of. 
 
 The author has been at considerable expense in collecting 
 the data relating to the name in England, but many records re- 
 main yet to be examined. It is to be hoped that other members of 
 the family will supplement the record with additional data gath- 
 ered as occasion offers.

 -^tKHE ancient town of Wickwar lies in the southern part of 
 ^ly Gloucestershire, one of the central counties of England. 
 It is situated on the river Avon, about ten miles east from the 
 Severn, the great western river which flows southerly through the 
 county of Gloucester, and empties into the Bristol channel. The 
 history of Wickwar runs far back beyond the time of William the 
 Conqueror. 
 
 The primitive name of the manor was Wick or Wichen, and 
 this name persisted through many centuries, until King John 
 granted the manor to Sir John La Warre, after which the name 
 became Wick- Warre. 
 
 The name — Wiche or Wichen — was apparently derived from 
 either (1) the Latin vicus, meaning a village; or (2) the Danish 
 vie or wic, meaning a river's creek, curvatures, or windings. Says 
 Nicholas, Pedigrees of the English People, page 483: 
 
 "History is nearly silent, but the faithful voice of local and 
 personal designations leaves us in no uncertainty as to the fact 
 that those terrible sea-rovers, before the Danish conquest of Eng- 
 land, left their marks on almost every creek and headland of 
 Britain * * * Wick (a creek) , stake (a column of rock) , holm (an 
 island), by (a dwelling, a village), thorp, throp (a village), are 
 Danish words, and are all with others of Danish origin to be found." 
 
 Referring to the early expeditions of the Vikings to the shores 
 of England, Fiske says: 
 
 "The proper division of this old Norse word is not into vi-king, 
 but into vik-ing. The first syllable means a 'bay' or 'fiord,' 
 
 -13-
 
 the second is a patronymic termination, so that 'vikings' are 
 'sons of the fiord,' — an eminently appropriate and descriptive 
 name." ' 
 
 The earhest monument reveahng the historic antiquity 
 of the site is the Roman bridge which spans the Avon, and which 
 was built during the Roman occupation of the Island. 
 
 The power of Rome was established in southern Britain 
 during the reign of Claudius — A. D. 43-54 — and the powerful 
 fortress of Gloucester was built in 45. Five great roads and numer- 
 ous bridges were built in Gloucestershire before Rome, in 410, 
 withdrew her legions in the vain hope to stem the tide that was 
 rising in the north and was to overwhelm the Imperial City. 
 
 This bridge has therefore been the silent witness of over fif- 
 teen centuries of English history. It suggests the possibility that 
 Wick may have been a Roman villa at a very early date. 
 
 The Anglo-Saxon conquest of Britain began in 449. Seven 
 kingdoms were ultimately established by the invaders, in whose 
 struggles for supremacy through succeeding centuries is discerned 
 the onward march toward national unity. 
 
 Mercia, one of the most powerful of these kingdoms, embraced 
 a large area extending from Wales to the North Sea on both sides 
 of the Trent, and included what later became the county of 
 Gloucester. 
 
 In 679 Mercia was subdivided into five bishoprics, of which 
 the first, called Wiccia, embraced the present counties of Glou- 
 cester, Worcester and southern Warwick. The inhabitants of 
 this territory were called Wiccii, or Wicces. 
 
 In 798 Kenulph, King of Mercia, founded the monastery 
 of Winchcomb, in Gloucestershire, and endowed it with great 
 revenues. It was consecrated by the Archbishop of Canterbury 
 and twelve other bishops in the presence of King Kenulph, Cuth- 
 red, King of Kent, Sired, King of the West Saxons and most of

 the great noblemen of Mercia. Among the manors and lands 
 granted to it were certain properties in "Wiche." About four 
 centuries later (1175), the bull of Pope Alexander the Third, con- 
 firming these possessions to the Abbot of Winchcomb and his 
 brethren, covenanted to "defend the same, ordaining that what- 
 soever possessions * * * the Monastery has or shall have by the 
 grant of bishops, kings or princes shall remain forever firm and 
 inviolable to them and their successors." 
 
 In 930, during the reign of Athelstan, the manor of Wick, 
 or Wichen, belonged to Hail ward Maew, from whom it descended 
 to his son Algar, who held it during the reign of Aethelred the 
 Unready, and who espoused the cause of Cnut at the battle of Shers- 
 ton in 1016. From Algar the manor passed to his son Brictric, 
 a powerful nobleman, who held it during the reign of Edward 
 the Confessor. 
 
 A romantic story is connected with the name of Brictric. 
 He was sent as ambassador to the court of Baldwin, Count of 
 Flanders. Maud, or Matilda, as she was sometimes called daughter 
 of Baldwin, and afterwards wife of William the Conqueror, fell 
 in love with Brictric while he was at her father's court. He, how- 
 ever, refused to marry her and when in later years she became 
 Queen of England she wreaked upon him the vengeance of a 
 woman scorned. She caused all his estates, including the manor 
 of Wick, to be confiscated, and cast him into prison at Win- 
 chester, where he languished and died. 
 
 The great historical poem of the poet Wace relative to the 
 Norman Kings and Dukes, written about 1160, is one of the ear- 
 liest authorities for the story of Maud's disappointment. It was 
 written in Norman French. It sets forth in detail the incidents of 
 the story, and states that the lands of Brictric were parceled 
 out among the followers of William the Conqueror.'

 54 et seq.

 The annals of John Leland, the father of Enghsh antiqui- 
 ties, contain the following confirmatory account: 
 
 "Brictricus Imbassiator in Normannia refutavit nuptias 
 Matildas postea uxoris Gul. Conquestoris. 
 
 Brictricus Dns. Gloucestriae captus in manerio suo de 
 hanleia et Wintorium ductus; ubi sine liberis obiit. 
 
 Matildis regina honorem Gloucestriae mortuo Brictrico ac- 
 cepit." 
 
 With the fall of Harold, son of Edward the Confessor, on the 
 field of Hastings in 1066, the crown of England passed to William 
 the Conqueror. He rewarded his Norman followers for their faith- 
 ful services by conferring upon them many estates wrested from 
 their former owners. The manor of Wick, or Wichen, was granted 
 by the Queen to Humfry, the chamberlain. 
 
 In 1085-6, by command of the King, the record known as 
 Domesday Book was compiled. This most valuable historical 
 document contains a description of all the manors, lands and 
 estates in the realm, with the names of the then owners, and the 
 owners during the prior reign of King Edward, the size and tax- 
 able value of each manor, and other data. On the accompany- 
 ing page is a fac-simile of the portion relating to Wick, taken from 
 the chapter on Gloucestershire. 
 
 The Latin is somewhat abbreviated, but is not difficult to 
 translate : 
 
 "Humfry the chamberlain holds Wichen. There are four 
 hides.' Three free men of Brichtric, the son of Algar, held it 
 in King Edward's time for three manors, and they had liberty to 
 go whither they would. There are three ploughs in the demesne; 
 and nine villeins, and fourteen bordares, with nine plough- 
 tillages. There are five bondmen, and twenty acres of meadow, 
 and six furlongs of wood. It is worth and was worth twelve

 FAC-SIMlLli (JF TART OI- D( )Mi':SJ:)AY ROOK, RELATING TO 
 
 WICK WAR. 
 The orif^inal was written by command of William the Concjueror in 
 108G A. D. The last two i>aragraphs relate to the Manor of Wick, which 
 became Wick-Warre after its actjuisition by Sir John Warre aliout a cen- 
 tury later. 
 
 The translation j^iven in the text covers only the paragraphs relating 
 to Wick.
 
 pounds * * * These two villages, Actum and Wichen, the Queen 
 gave to Humfry." 
 
 Humfry the chamberlain died seized of the manor of Wichen, 
 and it passed to his son Richard who died 23 Hen. II. (1177), 
 leaving a son Walter de Cormeilis, who was the last of the male 
 line and died leaving three daughters, Margaret, Alureda and 
 Sybill. About this time the manor became a part of the seign- 
 iory of Gloucester. 
 
 A few years prior to 1200, John, Earl of Gloucester (and after- 
 wards King) , granted the manor to Sir John La Warre ; and later 
 when John became king, he confirmed the grant in the eighth 
 year of his reign (1207). Thus the manor became known as Wick- 
 Warre, by a combination of the two names, Wick and Warre. 
 
 The history of Gloucestershire, published by Sir Robert 
 Atkins in 1712, contains a chapter relating to Wickwar, in the 
 hundred of Grumbald's Ash; and it is stated that the original 
 parish of Wick obtained its additional name of War from the 
 family who for many years were lords of the manor. 
 
 The manuscript History of the Parish of Wickwar, by the 
 late Mr. John Roberts, compiled in 1844 (3 Gloucestershire Notes 
 and Queries) states that the ancient name was Wichen, from wic, 
 and afterwards became Wickwar from the family of La Warr, 
 who for several generations were lords of the manor. 
 
 Samuel Rudder's History of Gloucestershire, page 818, rel- 
 ative to Wickwar, states: "The ancient name was Wichen, from 
 wic, which has various significations, as a village, a hamlet, a 
 castle, etc. It was afterwards called Wickwar, from the family 
 of La Warre, who for many generations were lords of the manor."

 The name of War, Ware, Warre, signifying war, is of very 
 early origin. The old French form was werre, guerre; middle 
 Latin werra; Provencal guerre; Anglo-Saxon werre; middle 
 English wer, war, werre, weorre, wyare. In Domesday Book the 
 form waras is sometimes used. 
 
 Burke's Commoners, vol. 4, states: "The family of Ware, 
 according to Walter Harris, who had access to Sir James Ware's 
 private records (see Harris' Ware, vol. 2, p. 145) claims a descent 
 from Roger de Ware, Lord of Isefield, and a Baron of Parliament 
 in the reign of Edward L The founder of the House was Jordan 
 de la War, of Wick, in the County of Gloucestershire, whose de- 
 scendants enjoyed extensive grants of land in the southern, mid- 
 land and western counties of England, for having signalized 
 themselves in various wars, particularly on the fields of Cressy 
 and Poictiers." 
 
 In the early records the name is variously spelled, viz.: War, 
 Ware, Warr, Warre, Weare. 
 
 The early pedigree of the Warre family is given in 4 Bristol 
 and Glouc. Arch. Soc. Coll., 197:

 Prior to the Conquest, 1066, surnames were not in use among 
 the Britons and Saxons. The practice of using surnames, in- 
 troduced by the Normans, was not fully established in England 
 for a century or two after the Conquest. 
 
 4 Freeman, Norman Conquest, 164, 755, states that "The 
 most remarkable man, and the official of highest rank, among 
 those who won William's favor in the western shires was Ead- 
 noth (Alnod, Alnodus, Elnod), a man who seems to have risen 
 by the favor of Harold, who had held the office of staller under 
 Edward and Harold, and who had large estates in various parts of 
 England, especially in the west. He became a zealous adherent 
 of William and, as we shall presently see, died in his service." 
 Mention is also made of his son Harding, "forefather of the great 
 house of the Lords of Berkeley." 
 
 "In Gloucestershire Harding held lands in pledge (vade- 
 monio) of a certain Brihtric, which Brihtric had held in the time 
 
 of King Edward." 
 
 -20-
 
 Rudder, p. 272, states that Harding, according to Leland, 
 was descended from the kings of Denmark. 
 
 1 Collinson, Somersetshire, 184, states that the present manor 
 of Over-Weare, anciently called Were, or Werre, in Somerset- 
 shire, was held by Walter de Dowai, a Norman, at the time of the 
 Domesday survey; and that it descended to Robert de Berkeley, 
 of the ancient house of Berkeley, in Gloucestershire, who thus be- 
 came possessed of the manor and assumed the title of de Were; 
 but sometimes wrote his name, as before, Robert de Berkeley. 
 
 Rudder, 283, states that Robert de Berkeley married Alice, 
 daughter and heiress of Robert de Gant (son of Gilbert de Gant 
 who came to England with the Conqueror), and by this marriage 
 obtained "the great lordship of de Were in county Somerset, 
 whence he took the name of Robert de Were." 
 
 From the foregoing accounts it appears that while the manor 
 of Were was acquired by Robert, second son of Harding, and de- 
 scended to the Berkeley family, yet Jordan, fourth son of Harding, 
 had previously assumed the title or designation of de la Warre 
 or Were, and it is probable that at some period he resided at Were. 
 His descendants retained the appellation as a surname. 
 
 The Visitations of Somersetshire for 1531 and 1573 contain 
 tabulated pedigrees of the main branch of the Warre family run- 
 ning back many centuries prior to that time. The following is 
 taken from page 88 :

 There were various branches of the Warre family, some of 
 which obtained distinct grants of arms, which however vary only 
 slightly from the arms of the main family as given above. The 
 branch seated at Hestercomb, in Somersetshire, obtained the 
 following arms in 1576: gules, a lion rampant, argent, between 
 eight cross crosslets, fitchee, of the second; crest, out of a ducal 
 coronet, or, a griffin's head, az., beaked of the first. 
 
 The arms of the branch residing at Chipleigh, Somersetshire, 
 were: gules, crusilly fitchee, ar. a lion rampant of the last; crest, 
 out of a ducal coronet, or a griffin's head, az.

 ensuing chapter relating to the manor.

 5|r|URING the century following the grant of the manor of Wick 
 ^^ to John La Warre (1207), the manor gradually acquired the 
 name of Wyke- Warre. Early inquisitions, patents and other pub- 
 lic records now extant disclose the history of the manor and parish 
 for several hundred years. These inquisitions were reports by 
 an escheator, commission or jury, disclosing the names of land- 
 holders in various counties, and the nature of their tenure. 
 
 A charter, granted 20 June, 1227, by King Henry, to Jordan 
 la Warre, exempted him from being put on any assize, jury or rec- 
 ognizance. 
 
 An inquisition taken during the same reign states that one- 
 half a virgate of land in Glouc. was held by Jordon la Franckelyn 
 of "Jordan de la Wike." This entry shows that Jordan was de- 
 scribed indifferently as "de la Warre," or "de la Wike." 
 
 The jury list of Gloucestershire, temp. 32, Hen. III. (1247, 8) 
 mentions Jordanus le War as one of the jurors at the "manerium 
 deWik."' 
 
 An inquisition taken in 1261 states that a tract of land in 
 Gloucestershire, called Henpanger, "near the manor of Wike," 
 belonged to the Abbot of Wyke.* 
 
 An inquisition taken in 1268 states that William de Bello Cam- 
 po (William de Beauchamp, Earl of Warwick) held "the manor of 
 Wykewauer in chief of the King by the service of the fifth part 
 
 (1) 10 Bristol & Glouc. Arch. 302. 
 
 (2) 29 Brit. Rec. Soc. 26. 
 
 -25-
 
 of a knight's fee;" and it refers also to the "court of Wykewauer, 
 with the houses, gardens and other things appurtenant thereto.'" 
 
 This statement is not inconsistent with the record that the 
 manor was possessed by Sir John La Warre, for the Earl of Warwick 
 was the overlord of great possessions, but was not in the actual 
 tenure thereof. 
 
 An inquisition of Hundredal and Manorial franchises, taken 
 in 1275, states that the manor of Wyke was held by John la War.^ 
 
 In 1281 Edward I granted to John la Warre the privileges 
 of a weekly market and yearly fair in Warre- Wike.' 
 
 In 1282 Walter de Wyke ware was ordained Abbot of the 
 Monastery of Winchcomb, which dignity he held till his death, in 
 1314. The abbots of Winchcomb were mitred abbots, and sat 
 in Parliament.* 
 
 On January 2, 1285, King Edward I granted to Roger la Warre 
 and his heirs, a weekly market on Tuesday at his manor of Warre- 
 Wyke, county Gloucester, and a yearly fair then on Monday in 
 Whitsun week, and two days following; also free warren in Warre 
 Wyk. 
 
 The inquisition known as Kirby's Quest, taken between 
 12 & 18 Edw. I (1284-1290), to ascertain what lands were held 
 of the King or anyone else, states: 
 
 "Idem Rogerus La Ware tenet Wyk." ' 
 
 "October 9, 1295 — Grant to Roger la Warre, tenant in chief, 
 who is going to Gascony on the King's service, that in case of his 
 dying on that service, leaving an heir under age in the king's 
 service, the executors of his will shall hold the manors of Wyke- 
 Warre, county Gloucestershire, and Brustlyngton, county Somerset, 
 during the minority of the heir, and apply the revenues thereof 
 in aid of the marriage of his daughters."

 In the list of Gloucestershire Pleas to the Crown taken at 
 Bristol in 15 Edw. I (1287) it is stated that John Stok fell from a 
 boat into the Avon and was drowned. The boat, which was after- 
 wards taken by Walter de Warrewyche, was declared a deodand, 
 and was assessed at 2s. 7d.' 
 
 An escheator's inquisition taken in 1321 states that Roger 
 la Warre died siezed of Wyke-warre, and held it by the service 
 of half a knight's fee.^ 
 
 The book of Royal Aids levied in Gloucestershire 20 Edw. 
 Ill (1346) states: 
 
 "De Rogero le Warre et herede Rogeri le Warre pro dimidio 
 feofo Militis in Wykewarre quod Rogerus la Warre pater jus 
 quondam tenuit ibidem * * * de Comite Warwyk pro dimidio 
 feofo Militis in Wykewarre.'"' 
 
 Sir Roger la Warre and Elizabeth his wife in 1355 levied a 
 fine of the manor and advowson of Wickwar to the use of them- 
 selves in tail, with remainder to John their son. •* 
 
 The list of knight's fees in Glouc. 3 Henry IV (1402) under 
 lay subsidies states : 
 
 "Item dicunt, quod Comitissa de Warrewyk tenet de Domino 
 Rege sine medio in Wykeware in eodem hundredo, dimidium

 King Henry VIII in the 24th year of his reign (1533), granted 
 to Lord de la Warre the privileges of a weekly market and of 
 two annual fairs.^ Following is a copy of this patent: 
 
 "The King to Archbishops, Bishops, &c., GREETING:

 of Gloucester, and two fairs there every year, that is to say, one 
 on the first day of the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, 
 and the other on the Feast Day of the visitation of the said Blessed 
 Virgin Mary, unless the said market and fair shall be to the in- 
 jury of the neighbouring fairs and markets."

 John Leland, appointed King's Antiquarian in 1534, traveled 
 through Gloucestershire, and made the following notes regard- 
 ing Wickwar : 
 
 "From Torte worth to Wike Watar, a prayte clothinge Toun- 
 let, 2 myles. The Lorde Delaware is chief Lord of it.'" 
 
 The list of recusants in Gloucestershire about 1560 mentions 
 the parish of Wickwarre." 
 
 The Feet of Fines from 30 Elizabeth to 20 James I mentions 
 in 1588 the following: 
 
 "Lord Lawarre, def. of the M. of Wickwarre, with appurts. 
 and 30 messauges &c., and ;^10 rent in Wykewarre, and the advow- 
 son of the church of Wykewarre."' 
 
 The following is taken from Rudder's Gloucestershire: 
 
 "John earl of Gloucester, brother to king Richard the First, 
 gave this manor to John la Warre, and afterwards confirmed it 
 to him when he was king, 8 Joh. to hold of that king by the ser- 
 vice of half a knight. Jordan la Warre was son and hek to John. 
 He often joined in rebellion against king John and king Henry 
 the Third; but prudently took care to make his peace. John la 
 Warre succeeded Jordan in this manor, and was himself succeeded 
 by Roger la Warre, who held it 9 E. 1. and purchased a weekly 
 market in Warre-Wike, on Tuesday; a yearly fair on Whit-Monday, 
 and the two following days; and free warren within the 
 manor, in the thirteenth year of the same reign; and all these 
 privileges were allowed him in the proceedings on a writ of Quo 
 warranto, 15 E. 1. He married Clarice, eldest daughter and co- 
 heiress of John lord de Tregoz, of Herefordshire, an eminent baion, 
 after whose death, this Roger la Warre had summons as a baron to 
 parliament, 22 E. 1. He died 14 E. II. seized of the manors of 
 Wyke-warre and Bristlington, and the escheator's . inquisition 
 found, that Wykewarre was then held of Thomas ap Adam, son

 of John ap Adam, as of the Manor of Castleharpetre, by the ser- 
 vice of half a knight's fee. John lord la Warre, son of Roger, 
 died 21 E. III. John (his eldest son dying before him) was succeeded 
 by his grandson Roger la Warre, who was eminent in the reign 
 of king Edward the Third, whom he attended in his wars in France; 
 and being present at the battle of Poictiers, Sept. 19, 1356, when 
 the French king and his son, the earl of Tankerville sir Jaques of 
 Bourbon, the earls of Pouthien and Eue, with many other noblemen, 
 were taken, he was one of those knights who challenged the French 
 king as their prisoner, and this sir Roger had the crampet, or 
 chape, of that monarch's sword assigned him for his share in that 
 exploit, and he and his family afterwards bore it, as an honour- 
 able augmentation, in their armorial bearings. He and Elizabeth 
 his wife levied a fine of the manor and advowson of Wickwar to 
 the use of themselves in taille, the remainder to John his son, 28 
 E. 3. and he died in the forty-fourth year of the same reign. 
 John lord De la Warre, son of Roger, died without issue 22 R. 2. 
 and was succeeded by his brother Thomas lord de la Warre, 
 rector of Manchester, who levied a fine of this manor to the use 
 of himself in taille, the remainder to Thomas West in taille, the 
 remainder to Reginald West, son of Thomas West, 12 H. 4. and 
 died without issue, 4 H. 6. 
 
 Reginald West, son of sir Thomas West by Joan the daugh- 
 ter and heiress of the last Roger lord de la Warre, succeeded to 
 this manor in virtue of the above-mentioned entail (notwith- 
 standing John Griffin was next heir male at law) and had livery 
 of the lands of his mother's inheritance. Petitioning the same year to 
 have place and precedency among the barons as lord de la Warre, 
 he had summons to parliament accordingly from 5 to 28 H. 6. 
 and died in the 29th year of that reign, seized of Wyke-Warr, 
 leaving Richard lord de la Warr, his eldest son and heir, who 
 died 16 E. 4. Thomas lord de la Warr, eldest son of Richard, 
 bore several important trusts under king Henry the Seventh, 
 with whom he was in great favour. He made his will Oct. 8,

 1524, and died soon thereafter as appears by the probat, which 
 bears date Feb. 12, 1525. Thomas lord de la Warr, eldest son of 
 Thomas by his first wifC; had a grant of the Abbey of Whorwell 
 in Hampshire, which afterwards became the seat of his family. 
 He died without issue, seized of themanor of Wickwarre, andof the 
 advowson of the church, Sep. 25, 1554. 
 
 William West, son of sir George West, who was brother 
 to the last-mentioned Thomas lord de lar Warr, was bred up in 
 his uncle's house as his presumptive heir, and impatient of delay, 
 attempted to dispatch him by poison; which being complained 
 of in parliament, 2 E. 6. he was disabled to succeed him in honour 
 and estate, and had only an allowance of 350 1. a year. But be- 
 having with distinguished valour in the English Army at the 
 siege of St. Quintin, in 1557, and carrying himself well for several 
 years afterwards, he received the honour of knighthood at Ham- 
 ton-court, Feb. 5, 1568; and obtained new creation to the title 
 of lord de la Warr, and by the act of parliament, which passed on 
 the 12th of March following, had full restitution in blood, and 
 became possessed of this manor. He died 38 Eliz. and was suc- 
 ceeded by his son Thomas lord de la Warr, who, by petition to 
 the Queen in parliament, was restored to the precedency of his 
 ancestors, 39 Eliz., and dying in the 44th year of that reign, left 
 Thomas lord de la Warr, his son and heir. This lord was consti- 
 tuted captain-general of the colonies planting in Virginia, whither 
 he went with three ships, in 1609, and was very active in forming 
 settlements and making discoveries; whereby his health was 
 greatly impaired, and he died at sea, in his return home, June 
 7, 1618." 
 
 John Fiske, in Old Virginia and Her Neighbors, vol. I, p. 146, 
 says: 
 
 "This Lord Delaware belonged to a family distinguished for 
 public service. On his mother's side he was nearly related to 
 Queen Elizabeth. In America he is forever identified with the 
 history of Virginia, and he has left a name to one of our great 
 
 -31-
 
 rivers, to a very interesting group of Indians, and to one of the 
 smallest states in our Union. With New England, too, he has one 
 link of association; for his sister Penelope West married Herbert 
 Pelham, and their son was the first treasurer of Harvard College. 
 Thomas West, born in 1577, was educated at Oxford, served with 
 distinction in the Netherlands, and was knighted for bravery in 
 1599. He succeeded to the barony of Delaware in 1602, and was a 
 member of the Privy Council of Elizabeth and James I. No one 
 was more warmly enlisted than he in the project of founding 
 Protestant English colonies in the New World. To this cause he 
 devoted himself with ever growing enthusiasm, and when the Lon- 
 don Company was remodeled he was appointed governor of Vir- 
 ginia for life." 
 
 After the death of Thomas Lord de la Warre, Governor of 
 Virginia, the manor of Wickwar was purchased by Sir Robert 
 Ducie, and descended to his heirs.

 Ebe iparisb of Mickwar, 
 
 ^tKHE parish was established as early as 1290. The advowson 
 ^w^ of the church belonged to the Warre family. 
 
 The church of St. Thomas, anciently called Holy Trinity, 
 is a restored structure of early English style. It has a south 
 aisle, altar of St. Lawrence, martyr, and Lady Chapel. The 
 structure bears the marks of great antiquity but is well preserved. 
 The mouldings and pinnacles of the lofty, embattled tower are 
 sharp and clear. The tower has four niches, now empty, but once 
 containing the patron saints of the church — St. Mary, St. Law- 
 rence, St. Peter, and St. Thomas of Canterbury. The tower has 
 six bells which were recast in 1693. 
 
 The following architectural description was written in 1854: 
 "This church has a nave and chancel, each with a north aisle, 
 a western tower and south porch. The nave and chancel are 
 chiefly Decorated, but the south aisle of the nave is embattled 
 and has square-headed Perpendicular windows of two lights and 
 labels. The south porch is also embattled and of Perpendicular 
 character. The chancel has a roof of stone tiles and no parapet. 
 Its windows are chiefly plain and of two lights without foliation. 
 The east window has three lights and of the same kind. The 
 east window of the aisle has three lights cinquef oiled, without 
 tracery, perhaps late. On the north side of the nave are some 
 decorated windows of two lights and fair character. There is no 
 battlement on this side, nor door. The arcade of the nave is 
 probably Decorated, consisting of three wide Pointed arches, 
 
 -33-
 
 running into square piers without capitals. There is a small projec- 
 tion on the south side of the nave lighted by slits, probably for the 
 rood stairs. The tower is the finest feature of the church, and is 
 good Perpendicular, of excellent masonry, of three stages of 
 corner buttresses and embattled, having twelve pinnacles set 
 diagonally of different sizes. There is an octagonal turret at the 
 northeast rising to the top and panelled. The belfry windows 
 are very fine, long, and of two lights with transoms and stone 
 lattice work, and there are crocketed pinnacles on each stage of the 
 buttresses. The west window is of four lights, the door labled, 
 and with foliated spandrels. In the second stage are canopied 
 niches. 
 
 The chancel arch is continuous and wide. The arch between 
 the chancel and the north chapel is an odd one, also continuous, 
 but unusually deep in the soffit. It seems as if it had been con- 
 nected with a tomb. The south porch has good panelled battle- 
 ment and continuous doorways. Near the church on the south 
 side is a ruined building of good Perpendicular domestic charac- 
 ter, with labeled windows and an inscription with date 1426 and 
 a figure of St. John the Baptist." 
 
 Following is a list of the incumbents of the church from 
 1290 to 1479: 
 
 1290 — Robert de London, clerk and subdeacon, on presentation 
 of Sir Roger de la Warre, Knt. 
 
 1326 — ^John de la Feld, clerk, of the Church of Wykewarre, pre- 
 sented by Sir John la Warre, Knt. 
 
 1370 — William Draper, priest; presented by Sir John W^arre, Knt. 
 
 1430 — Sir Richard Leventhorpp, by exchange with John Vale, 
 incumbent of Wykwarr. 
 
 1461 — Sir John Wade, to the parish church of Wikewarr. 
 
 1464 — Sir Thomas Mede, Chaplain. 
 
 1479 — Master Robert Wodeward, bachelor in laws. 
 
 Thomas Test, or Teste, was Chaplain at Wickwar in 1513. 
 
 -34-
 
 "1515 — Feb. or Mar. 18, George West, clerk, instituted to 
 the parish church of Wykwar, vacant by the death of the last 
 incumbent; presented by lord de Lawarre."

 In the church is the following described sacramental plate: 
 a silver chalice, with cover; a silver paten, on which is inscribed: 
 "Wickwarre, Gloustershire;" a silver flagon with the inscription: 
 "Wlckwarre, Ex. dono Johannes Biddle, Rect. 1730;" also a sil- 
 ver plate, bearing date 1743, the gift of Mrs. Jane Purnell. 
 
 The church registers of baptisms, marriages and burials 
 do not begin until 1689. Apparently, at that time no persons 
 named Wickwarr were living in the parish, but numerous entries 
 both prior and subsequent, are found in several neighboring 
 parishes, as will be noted in the following chapter.

 Arms of the Town of Wickwar.
 
 Cbaptcr D. 
 
 ^be ZTown of MtcJ^war, 
 
 '^tKHE town of Wickwarre, or Wickwar as it is now written, 
 ^^ lies in the parish of Wickwar, in the hundred of Grumbald's 
 Ash, five miles southwest from Wotton-Under-Edge, four north 
 from Chipping Sodbury, and about twenty-six south from Glouces- 
 ter. It is situated on the best road from Bath to Gloucester. The 
 surrounding scenery is highly picturesque. In the distance lie 
 the celebrated Cotswold Hills. The town's privileges of a weekly 
 market and a yearly fair were first granted in the reign of Edward 
 the First. Henry the Eighth in the 24th year of his reign also 
 granted to Lord La Warre the like privileges of a weekly market 
 and of two annual fairs. This grant was confirmed by Charles 
 the First by an inspeximus dated July 4, 1629. Rudder says 
 that this inspeximus is kept by the mayor, as a charter of incor- 
 poration, "for the town is a borough by prescription, like Wotton 
 and Berkeley, with a mayor and twelve aldermen, who have the 
 mace carried before them on particular days. The profits of the 
 market and fairs belong to the mayor, and such as have served 
 that office are deemed aldermen." 
 
 The following is taken from a chapter on Wickwar in "Famous 
 Places in the West," as published in the Bristol Observer, Aug. 31, 
 1889. 
 
 "Wickwar and the villages that surround it are rich in anti- 
 quarian treasures and records, many of which have been brought 
 to light by the county historians. Not the least interesting of 
 the antiquities is the estate of the last Lord Delawarr. A writer 
 
 -37-
 
 has said — 'Any man, who lived at the time of the Hterary 
 awakening in the 15th century, conspicuous at once for 
 his love of education and letters, for his benevolence and for his 
 piety, deserves that his name, for a while forgotten, should be 
 rescued from oblivion, especially if we add to these marks of 
 distinction the fact that the man was of an ancient and noble 
 family; that he was a peer of the realm, and a good priest of the 
 holy church. These qualities and claims to our notice had Lord 
 Thomas Delawarr, the last in the direct line of a family which 
 possibly dates from the Conquest, and whose title of De la Warre, 
 is certainly as old as Edward II of England, 1326.' In 1422 
 Henry VI came to the throne, and with him there came an edu- 
 cational awakening, and no inconsiderable advance towards light 
 letters and culture; which movement towards that end was seen 
 in the foundation of Eton College, and many others. Amongst 
 them, at this tim.e. Lord Thomas Delawarr had built and endowed 
 the collegiate school and church of St. Mary, Manchester, he 
 being in priest's orders and rector of the place. At the death of 
 his brother, John, Earl Delawarr, without issue, he was summoned 
 to Parliament among the Lords temporal by the name of Magis- 
 ter Thomas Delawarr. As his brother John died 'seized of the 
 manor of Wickwar, in Gloucestershire, and of Brislington, with 
 St. Anne's in the Wood, Somerset,' his history is connected with 
 the old-fashioned town to which we are drawing attention. There 
 is ample evidence in Domesday Book that this notable family 
 can be traced back to a remote period, and as to their place in 
 Gloucestershire, Wickwar — lying between Yate and Charfield — 
 a writer has remarked — 'one can hardly imagine a more primi- 
 tive or pleasant townlet.' With its one street, Grammar School, 
 and Town House, it was once a more considerable place, having 
 rich clothiers, merchants, mayor and town councilors. Among 
 them was a principal benefactor, who built the church dedicated 
 to the Virgin Mary. 
 
 -.38-
 
 High Street, Wickwar. 
 Road to the Downs, Wickwar.
 
 Eventually one of the townsmen, a wealthy clothier, built a 
 house at the pool near the church, which was called Pool House. 
 The Midland Railway cut through this, and in pulling down the 
 house, which evidently was of a religious character, they dis- 
 placed a figure of St. John the Baptist, which stood pointing from 
 the east end of the building, with his left hand extended towards 
 the church; over whose head there is an inscription, legible to 
 this day. This figure is now built into the east wall of the modern 
 school house. There is also a grammar school over whose portal 
 is read the old Benedictine distych, taken from the doorway of 
 Winchester College, which can be interpreted, 'Take notice, you 
 boys. Learn or go about your business.' The monks added a 
 proviso which a more genial age has not inforced — 'Learn or 
 leave us, unless you Hke the third condition, viz., to be well 
 flogged.' The story of this grammar school and its foundation 
 reads like a fascinating history. Wickwar has a strong claim to be 
 considered a very ancient town, as is evidenced by the old Roman 
 bridge, which presents many attractions for the archaeologist. 
 
 The Town Hall is one of the most prominent of the local 
 buildings. There is an utter absence of ornament; but if plain, it 
 looks durable, and for some generations to come will no doubt 
 amply serve the inhabitants for public purposes. The gates to 
 be seen at the entrance to the lower story of the building suggest 
 that it was once the market house, the Town Hall, strictly speaking, 
 being the upper portion. Weekly markets were first granted to 
 the town in the reign of Edward L The church of St. Thomas, 
 anciently called Holy Trinity, to which allusion has already been 
 made, is a building of stone in the early English style, and its 
 lofty, embattled tower contains six bells, which were recast in 
 1693. The organ was erected by public subscription in 1856. 
 The communion plate dates from 1730, and the register from 1689. 
 Other features of interest in and about Wickwar serve to present 
 glimpses of the distant past.

 It will be seen from the foregoing that Wickware has been the 
 form in most general use for the past six centuries. This is the 
 form that appears upon the New London, Conn., records for at 
 least thirty-five years after John Wickware settled there, in 1675. 
 Wickwire is a variation apparently first devised in 1712 by the 
 clerk of the Probate Court, when the will of John Wickware was 
 offered for probate. Some branches have accepted and adhered 
 to this corrupted form, while others still retain the correct spelling. 
 
 Throughout this book an asterisk (*) placed at the head of 
 a family indicates that the spelling "Wickwire" is commonly used; 
 but as some changes are being occasionally made by members of 
 the family, no effort has been made to indicate the spelling beyond 
 the sixth American generation.

 Zbc learli? lenglieb family of Mtcftwarre* 
 
 ^AVING traced the history of the Manor, Parish and Town 
 of Wickware, or Wick war, it remains to set forth the his- 
 tory of Wickware as a surname. 
 
 At the time of the Conquest, 1066, surnames were not in com- 
 mon use among the Britons, and the practice of using surnames 
 was not fully estabHshed for a century of two afterwards. And 
 it was much later that many surnames attained their final forms. 
 
 The definite, connected history of the surname Wickware 
 begins about 1500, though earlier traces have been discovered. 
 
 Doubtless further researches that may hereafter be con- 
 ducted in England will serve to shed additional light upon the 
 earlier generations of the family. 
 
 It seems probable that a branch of the Warre family, re- 
 siding at or near the manor of Wick, or Wick- Warre, assumed 
 that name to distinguish themselves from the main branch of the 
 family which, after a few generations, had their principal seat, not 
 at Wick, but in Sussex county. 
 
 In the first half of the 16th century two brothers, John and 
 Thomas Wickwarre, were living at Calne, in Wiltshire, about 
 -thirty miles southeast of Wickwar. Thomas Wickwarre, who 
 was probably their father, was buried at Calne, 21 Jan. 1568. 
 Jane Wickwarre, buried at Calne 7 Oct. 1559, may have been the 
 wife of Thomas, Sr. 
 
 In the earliest entries the name is spelled Wyckwarre, Wyck- 
 warr, Wyckware, Wickwarre, Wickwarr and Wickware. In a 
 considerable number of entries in the latter half of the century 
 
 -45-
 
 the name is written "Wickwarr alias Clarke," or "Clarke alias Wick- 
 warr." This use of a double surname was quite common at that 
 time, being somewhat analogous to the more modem hyphen- 
 ated surname. It is probable that a marriage took place between 
 a member of the Wickwarr family and a member of the Clarke 
 family, and that both names were thereafter used, in order to 
 preserve the right to an inheritance, or for some similar reason. 
 
 The arms of the Clarke family of Gloucestershire were: 
 Argent, on a bend sable a cross crosslet fitchy, or. The crest of 
 the family in this county was: out of a ducal coronet, or, a demi- 
 lion ppr. (Fairbairne's Crests). Another branch of the Clarke fam- 
 ily had for crest a demi-grif!in ducally gorged. 
 
 The similarity of the elements of these insignia with those 
 of the Warre family — the cross crosslet, ducal coronet, lion and 
 griffin appearing in each family — suggests the probability of some 
 relationship between the two families. And this is strengthened 
 by the records referred to above wherein the name is written 
 "Clarke alias Wick-warre." 
 
 Some years ago an inquiry was sent by a member of the fam- 
 ily in Canada to the Heraldry Office in London as to the Crest of 
 the family, and the following is a copy of the information fur- 
 nished by the Heraldry Ofifice : 
 
 "CREST OF WICKWAR OR WYKWARRE. 
 
 A Griffin's head out of coronet, in beak a fleur-de-lis. 
 
 The name is taken from Wickwar in Gloucestershire and is 
 a most ancient family, dating as far back as the Conqueror, whose 
 Queen presented the hamlet of Wickwar to her Chamberlain and 
 named it after him for his faithful services.

 shire.' "

 John' Wickwarr, above referred to (apparently son of 
 Thomas'), was born about 1525, and resided at Calne. He 
 
 -46-
 
 married about 1550 Alice Thornnell, daughter of Thomas Thorn- 
 nell (or Thornhill), esquire, of Thornhulle. j.- 
 
 Burke's Landed Gentry states: "The family of Thornnell 
 descends from a branch of the Thornhills of County York, one of 
 the most ancient famihes in that part of England. The pedigree 
 deduces the descent from Gerneber, a nsSfole Saxon, who, it is there- 
 in recorded, possessed before the Conquest, large tracts of land 
 in County York that descended to his heirs." 
 
 The arms of the Dorset branch of the Thornnell family are: 
 Argent, a chevron gules between three blackbirds proper, 
 legged and beaked, or. 
 
 Following is the pedigree of the Dorset and Wiltshire Thornell 
 or Thornhull family: (Hutchins, Hist. Dorset, vol. 4, p. 417.)

 In addition to the foregoing account a number of items of 
 information not definitely connected have been secured, showing 
 traces of the family in other towns in the same vicinity. 
 
 In 1596, Margery Wickwarr, of Cheltenham, Glouc, widow of 
 Richard Wickwarr, deceased, brought a suit in chancery at Glou- 
 cester against Simon Spier for the recovery of a messuage in the 
 parish of Cheltenham, and "diverse lands, meadows, pastures and 
 grounds thereto belonging." late the estate of Richard Wickwarr.' 
 
 In the Gloucestershire list of men fit to bear arms in 1608 
 is mentioned John Wickwarre, of Packenhill. Packenhill, or Pagan 
 Hull, is in the southwest part of the parish of Stroud. 
 
 The following entries are taken from the parish register of 
 Tetbury: 
 
 Eleanor Wickwar, daughter of Hinde Wickwar, bapt. 24 May, 
 1629. 
 
 Joan Wickware, baptized 26 June, 1630. 
 
 Hind Wickwarre married Joan Baily 16 Oct. 1649. 
 
 Joan Wickware, baptized 26 Dec. 1650. 
 
 Jonathan Scren married Mary Wickware, 11 Apr. 1658. 
 
 Hind Wickwar died 6 Oct. 1663. 
 
 William Wicks married Elizabeth Wickwar, 10 Oct. 1664. 
 
 The register of St. Helen's, Bishopgate, London, shows that 
 John Wickwarre of Martin's, Ludgate married Elizabeth Marson 2 
 Feb. 1659. 
 
 The records thus far discovered reveal the surname Wickwarr 
 in the following parishes prior to the year 1700 : Calne and Crick- 
 lade in Wiltshire; Wotton-Under-Edge, Berkeley, Tortworth, 
 Cheltenham, Stroud and Tetbury in Gloucestershire; and London, 
 in Middlesex. The accompanying map shows the relative situa- 
 tion of these places in Wiltshire and Gloucestershire, and their 
 proximity to Wickwar.

 -58-
 
 Diligent search has been made for additional records, but 
 none showing the family in any other parish have been revealed. 
 In all the entries there is only one John Wickwarr, namely John 
 Wickwarr, baptized 18 May, 1656, son of John of Wotton-Under- 
 Edge, whose age corresponds with the supposed age of John of 
 New London. His father having died when he was less than a 
 year old, the lack of this paternal tie may have been a factor in his 
 determination, when he grew up, to seek his fortune in the new 
 world. 
 
 It is of course possible that future investigations may reveal 
 some additional records shedding light upon the parentage of 
 John Wickware of New London. 
 
 The family is said to be now almost extinct in England. The 
 firm of Wickwar and Company, manufacturing stationers to His 
 Majesty's Stationery Office, carry on business at 98 Jermyn Street, 
 in London. Prior to 1800 Thomas Wickwar had large paper mills 
 at Newbury, in Berkshire, England. He married Hannah 
 Stephens 28 Sept. 1788. He died in 1811 or 1812, and had four 
 sons and one daughter. The eldest son Thomas went to Jamaica 
 and died there or in America; John, another son, was a manufactur- 
 ing stationer, and established the business of Wickwar and Com- 
 pany, formerly at 6 Poland Street, now at 98 Jermyn Street; Francis, 
 a third son, married Sabrina Lucas, 9 Jan. 1819, at London, and 
 left a daughter Mary Agnes, who married Mr. Spain, and she in- 
 herited the business from her uncle John. She has a son, Arthur 
 Spain, Esq., who now carries on the business.

 fOHN Wickware,' the ancestor of the American family of 
 Wick ware and Wick wire, settled at New London, Connec- 
 ticut, in 1675. He is supposed to have been the son of John 
 and Mary Wickware, of Wotton-Under-Edge, England, baptized 
 18 May, 1656. 
 
 He was a soldier in King Philip's War, and was engaged in 
 the Great Swamp Fight, December 19, 1675, when the powder of 
 the Narragansetts was broken. For his service in this war he 
 afterwards received from the General Court a grant of 140 acres of 
 land in Voluntown. (Bodge, Soldiers of King Philip's War, pp. 
 442, 445.) 
 
 His name appears on the list of residents of New London in 
 1676. 
 
 He settled in the North Parish of New London, (now known 
 as Montville). 
 
 On Nov. 6, 1676, he married Mary Tonge, daughter of George 
 and Margery Tonge. 
 
 George Tonge was an early settler at New London, and in 
 165 6 the general town meeting chose him to keep an inn for five 
 years. In those times only trustworthy citizens were accorded 
 this privilege. In the same year he purchased a house and lot 
 on the Thames river, "and here he opened the house of entertain- 
 ment which he kept during his life, and which, being continued 
 by his family, was the most noted inn of the town for 60 years." ' 
 
 (1) See Caulkins' Hist, of New London, 289. 
 
 -63-
 
 George Tonge and Margery his wife had three daughters, 
 namely: EHzabeth, born Oct. 20, 1652, who married Gov. Fitz 
 John Winthrop; Hannah, born July 20, 1654, who married Joshua 
 Baker (see Bakers History of Montville, pp. 153 to 175) ; and Mary, 
 bom Sept. 17, 1656, who married John Wickware. 
 
 On December 14, 1663, a tract of 200 acres of land in the 
 North Parish was granted by the proprietors of New London to 
 George Tonge (3 New London Deeds, 14, 15; see appendix D). He 
 received also other grants. He died about 1670.' 
 
 On May 7, 1670, Margery Tonge, as administratrix, transferred 
 to Joshua Baker, her son-in-law, a dwelling house originally 
 acquired of Thomas Stanton, (vol. 5, p. 34). 
 
 Richard Poole, an early settler at New London, received a 
 grant of 100 acres in the North Parish, adjoining the 200 acres of 
 George Tonge, and dying in 1662 left it by his will, dated April 
 25, 1662, to Margery Tonge and her children. 
 
 George Tonge had also acquired a tract of 40 acres in the 
 North Parish, originally granted to Thomas Stafford. 
 
 On July 20, 1689, the estate not having been divided, Margery 
 Tonge granted to Joshua Baker full leave to go upon and use the 
 farm, including her interest in the Poole tract. (5-131) 
 
 On Mar. 11, 1690, Margery Tonge, "in consideration of great 
 love and affection to my loving grandchild, George Wickware, the 
 son of John Wickware and Mary his wife, my daughter," granted 
 one-half of all her right in "the farm that was on the land of 
 Richard Poole." (5-140) 
 
 On Sept. 17, 1692, commissioners appointed by the court to 
 divide the estate of George Tonge executed an instrument appor- 
 tioning a part of it as follows: "That hundred acres of Poole's, 
 the middle part for Elizabeth Tonge, that end next the Coave to 
 Hannah Baker, and the west end to Mary Wickware ; that which 
 was Thomas Stafford's the middle part to Elizabeth, the souther- 
 most part to Mary Wickware next her own, and the northermost 
 
 (1) For further details regarding the Tonge family, see Appendix C. 
 
 -64-
 
 part to Hannah Baker ; and the two hundred acres originally George 
 Tonge's, the eastermost part of it to Hannah Baker, the middle 
 to Elizabeth Tonge, and the western end to Mary Wickware ; * * * 
 the other estate we have not yet settled." (5-149) 
 
 On Aug. 14, 1694, Elizabeth transferred to Joshua Baker all 
 her interest in the Stafford and Poole tracts, and in return appears 
 to have acquired Hannah's interest in the tavern property. (5-197) 
 Caulkins states (p. 289-90) that Madam Winthrop inherited the 
 inn. 
 
 As stated above, Elizabeth Tonge married Fitz John Winthrop, 
 Governor of Connecticut from 1698 till his death in 1707. They 
 had only one child, Mary, who married Col. John Livingston, one 
 of the executors of John Wickware's will. After the death of 
 Gov. Winthrop, in 1707, Elizabeth resided at the inn. She died 
 April 25, 1731. Her will, dated Dec. 2, 1730, makes several specific 
 bequests, and contains the following residuary clause: "Item. 
 My will is that the residue of my estate not before disposed of be 
 divided according to the discretion of my executors between the 
 two daughters of sister Wickware." 
 
 John Wickware was one of the 77 patentees of New London, 
 named in the patent granted by Gov. Winthrop, Oct. 14, 1704. 
 
 By deed dated June 30, 1708, he and Mary his wife granted 
 to Rene Grignon the tract of land in Voluntown received for his 
 service in the Indian War. 
 
 At the time of his death he owned several tracts of land be- 
 sides the homestead, and his estate was appraised at over 300 pounds 
 — a considerable sum for those times. He died in March or April, 
 1712, as appears by Hempstead's Diary. By his will he named 
 his wife Mary Wickware, James Harris, Jr., and Col. John Livings- 
 ton as his executors. He left his entire estate to his wife "dur- 
 ing her natural life and at her death then the said estate is to go 
 to my children." 
 
 Following is a copy of his will :

 Mrs. Mary Wickwire widow and Relict of Mr. John Wickwire, 
 late of New London, deceased, appeared in a Court of Probate 
 held in New London, June the 16th 1712, and made Solemn Oath 
 that shee gave in unto the aprizers a true account of the Estate 
 of her deceased husband Mr. John Wickwire according to the best 
 of her knowledge and if any thing further appear to be his Estate, 
 that is considerable, it shall be added to this Inventory. 
 
 Test. George Denison, Cler." 
 
 Some inferences may be drawn from this inventory. The 
 bible suggests the religious spirit of that age. The "7 books" in- 
 dicate that John Wickware was an educated man, and in view of the 
 
 -69-
 
 scarcity of books, and the fact that the first printing press in Con- 
 necticut was set up in 1709, it is not strange that he did not 
 possess more books. The flint-lock gun, bayonet, "catoos box," 
 ammunition and rapier, are graphic reminders of the Indian War 
 in which he bore his part, and of the dangers which beset the 
 lives of the primitive pilgrims. The use of the word "Mr." before 
 his name, in the clerk's certificate, indicates his social position, 
 as in those days that title was applied only to men of social rank. 
 Pursuant to the testator's wish, expressed in the will, Mary 
 Wickware made various conveyances to her children of portions 
 of the estate. 
 
 Children of John and Mary (Tonge) Wickware: 
 I. George, b. Oct. 4, 1677; nothing further is know of him, 
 except that he received from his grandmother the trans- 
 fer above mentioned, dated May 11, 1690. 
 
 2 II. Christopher, b. Jan. 8, 1679-80. 
 
 3 III. John, b. Dec. 2, 1685. 
 
 IV. Elizabeth, b. Mar. 23, 1688-9; m. at New London 
 Sept. 9, 1708, Jonas Hamilton, b. about 1678, son of 
 David Hamilton, a Scotchman of Berwick, Maine, who 
 was killed by the Indians Sept. 28, 1691. He and his 
 wife were bapt. at N. L. June 25, 1710. He joined the 
 church at New London, Oct. 8, 1738. In 1748 Jonas 
 Hamilton was described in a petition to the General 
 Court at a member of the church in the parish of New 
 Salem. In 1746, he signed his name as a witness to 
 the will of his brother-in-law, Christopher Wickware. 
 The Probate Journals describe him as of Colchester 
 in 1747. The births of his children are all recorded at 
 New London.

 CHRISTOPHER* (John'), b. Jan. 8, 1679-80; married Eliza- 
 beth , resided at the North Parish of New London, now known 
 
 as Montville; and later removed to Lyme. On Sept. 21, 1724, he 
 
 '-71-
 
 and his children Ichabod, Solomon, Nathan, Elizabeth, Ann and 
 Mary, were baptized by Rev. James Hillhouse, pastor of the 
 Second Congregational Church, at the North Parish. His son 
 James was baptized by the same clergyman on Oct. 23, 1726, 
 and his son Zebediah on Mar. 22, 1729-30. 
 
 On Jan. 16, 1716-17. he conveyed to Lt. Col. John Livingston 
 a tract of land at New London for 118;^. The deed was acknowl- 
 edged at Norwich. One of the points described in the deed is "a 
 cellar that John Wickwere built." On June 25, 1731, he trans- 
 ferred to John Viber certain land at the North Parish. One of the 
 calls in the deed is "a place where John Wickwire built a cellar.' 
 The testimonium clause reads as follows: "In witness whereof the 
 said Christopher Wickwerr and Elizabeth his wife in token that 
 she resigns all her right of thirds in the granted premises have 
 hereunto set their hands and seals the 16th day of January 1716-17 
 in the third year of the reign of King George the Second." On 
 Sept. 26, 1733, he transferred to John Rogers, Jr., for 12;^ a one- 
 third part of a whole right in the common "which was allowed by 
 the proprietors of New London unto my Hon'd. Father Mr. John 
 Wickwere, deceased." On Sept. 27, 1734, he conveyed to "Johna- 
 than Wickwere of Norwich," for 30;^, 32 acres of land on Pole's 
 Hill, lately belonging to Mrs. Livingston, and bounded on the 
 home as laid out "unto the heirs of my Hon'd. Father John Wick- 
 w^ere, formerly of New London, deed., on account of his division 
 in the outside Common and inside on Gray Commons, as the same 
 is entered in the Proprietors Book Sept. 27, 1733." In these deeds 
 he is described as "of New London." It appears that he did not 
 remove to Lyme till after 1734. On June 5, 1739 Christopher 
 Wickwere "of New London, now resident in Lyme," conveyed for 
 210;)C to Peter Wickwere his farm in the North Parish near Stony 
 brook. 
 
 The will of Joshua Baker, dated May 25, 1740, devises certain 
 land partially described as follows: "Beginning at Peter Wick- 
 wire's south corner of a certain piece of land which he bought of 
 
 -72-
 
 his brother Christopher, and so running a west line until it comes 
 to Samson Haughton's northwest corner," etc. 
 
 The last will and testament of Christopher Wick ware, or 
 Wickwere, as he spelled it, reads as follows: 
 
 "In the Name of God Amen. 
 
 I Christopher Wickwere of Lyme in the County of New Lon- 
 don and Colony of Connecticut in New England, Husbandman, Do

 The Probate Journal at New London contains the follow- 
 ing entry under the same date, viz.: "Zebediah Wickwire up- 
 wards of 14 years and Bridgett Wickwire upwards of 12 years, 
 minors, children of Christopher Wickwire, late of Lyme, deceased, 
 appeared and made choice of Jonas Hambleton of Colchester to 
 be their guardian." 
 
 Solomon Wickwire as executor appeared and asked that free- 
 holders be appointed to divide the estate among the children 
 
 -74-
 
 according to the will, "there being no persons nominated in sd 
 will to divide the same." The court appointed Capt. Jon^. Lati- 
 mer of New London and Stephen Gardner of Colchester. 
 
 The inventory mentions among other things a large number 
 of agricultural implements, a gun, a saddle and bridle appraised 
 at 10;;^, a pair of silver buttons and four silver buckles, a great 
 wheel and iron spindle, a sword, three oxen, two horses, numerous 
 cows, calves and swine, and "the profits of a lease of the farm 
 which is three years to come." The total value was 509 pounds 
 and nine shillings. 
 
 On April 11, 1749, Solomon as executor filed a list of debts 
 aggregating 124, 4, 11 which he had paid, and the payments 
 were approved. 
 
 Children of Christopher and Elizabeth Wickwire (order of 
 births uncertain) : 
 
 6 L Ichabod,' b. about 1713. 
 
 IL Solomon, b. about 1715. The Colonial Records of Con- 
 necticut, Vol. 9, page 371, show that in May, 1748, a 
 memorial was presented to the legislature of Connecti- 
 cut by Solomon Wickwire and twenty-two others, mem- 
 bers of the church in and inhabitants of the society or 
 parish of New Salem, "lying partly in Colchester in the 
 County of Hartford and partly in Lyme in the County of 
 New Haven," praying that they might be authorized to 
 call a minister and levy a tax for the support of the 
 church. The land records at East Haddam contain a 
 record of a deed, dated December 31, 1753, by George 
 Dolbear of New London to Solomon Wickwire "of East 
 Haddam, County of Hartford and Colony aforesaid, 
 parish of Millington," conveying about fifty-three acres 
 in Millington, for a consideration of two hundred and fifty 
 pounds. On the same date Solomon deeded the land to 
 James and Zebediah Wickwire. On April 19, 1760, 
 -75-
 
 Zebediah quit claimed to James "of Colchester" one-half 
 of said tract, which "said Wickwire and I bought in 
 partnership of our brother Solomon Wickwire." Land at 
 Ashford was conveyed to Solomon by various deeds, dated 
 in 1767, 1768, and 1771. He was a soldier in the 
 French and Indian War, serving in Capt. Edmund Well's 
 Hebron Company, in 1756. He probably raised a family 
 at Ashford, but their names have not been ascertained. 
 His name appears as a resident of Ashford in 1790 in 
 the first census.

 Hambleton of Norwich on the goods, rights and credits of John 
 Wickwire, late of New London, deceased." Jonathan Wickwire

 JONATHAN^ (John'), b. Feb. 19, 1690-1; married 1717, 
 Elizabeth Haughton. The banns were published June 9, 1717. 
 She was dau. of Sampson Haughton and was bapt. Mar. 7, 1696. 
 On Sept. 2, 1722, he and his children Katherine and Alpheus were 
 baptized by Rev. James Hillhouse, pastor of the Second Congre- 
 gational Church of New London, located at the North Parish. 
 Shortly afterwards they removed to Norwich. 
 
 The land records contain numerous instruments showing his 
 dealings in real estate. In 1712 land at Voluntown was deeded 
 to him, and on Nov. 27th of the same year he deeded land there 
 to Rene Grignon. His name is spelled "Wickwere." On \ug. 
 24, 1716, he deeded to Lt. Col. John Livingston for 150;^ certain 
 
 -77-
 
 land at New London adjoining that of his mother, Mary Wick- 
 ware. On June 25, 1718, Col. Livingston re-conveyed the same 
 land to him. On July 30, 1718, Jonathan deeded to James Brown 
 "of Colchester," his brother-in-law, land adjoining that of Peter 
 Wickwire, for 216;^. On June 25, 1719-20, Joseph Bradford and 
 Sarah Knight conveyed certain land to him for 18;^. In these 
 deeds he is described as "of New London." By deed dated April 
 24, 1723, he transferred to John Lambert a tract of 7 or 8 acres. 
 In a deed to Gershom Rogers, dated Feb. 11, 1728, of land at New 
 London, he is described as "of Norwich." In a deed dated May 
 24, 1734, to Sampson Haughton, he is described as "of New Lon- 
 don." In a deed dated Sept. 27, 1734, from his brother Christo- 
 pher he is described as "of Norwich." In a deed to James Harris, 
 dated March 16, 1735-6, of 8 or 9 acres of land at New London, 
 with a dwelling, for 240;)(^ he is described as "of Norwich." 
 
 In a letter dated April 9, 1739, by John Richards to Governor 
 Talcott, it is stated that 210 acres of land have been granted to 
 "Wickwire and Baker," by deeds from Owaneco. (5 Conn. Hist. 
 Coll. 100.) In May, 1738, Jonathan Wickwire of Norwich testified 
 that he knew Owaneco and was present when Caesar, his son, was 
 invested with the Sachemship, and that Caesar died and left one 
 child only, who was now the reputed wife of Ben Uncas, Jr., the 
 grand son of Ben Uncas, the brother of Owaneco. (Do. p. 198 
 note.) In 1739, land at Norwich was conveyed to Jonathan Wick- 
 wire. The record of the births of his children Jonathan and De- 
 light spells the surname "Wickwer." On Feb. 14, 1739, Lieut. 
 James Harris deeded to his sons Jonathan and Lebbeus, for 4000 
 pounds, lands at Massapeag and Colchester, including a "tract of 
 land commonly called Baker's Farm, with all the land adjoining 
 thereunto, which I purchased of Peter Wickwire, Jonathan Wick- 
 wire and George Richards, with the buildings thereon, containing 
 by estimation 250 acres &c. * * * * also one tract of 
 land which I purchased of Mrs. Elizabeth Livingston, which was 
 part of the purchase land of Owaneco." &c. (Rec. N. New London 
 
 -78-
 
 Records, vol. 16, p. 168; also Col. Rec. Vol. 7, p. 323.) He prob- 
 ably died in 1744, as is indicated by the following probate record 
 at New London, under date of February 14, 1744-5, viz. : "Lebeus 
 Wickwire, a minor son to Jon^ Wickwire, late of New London, 
 dec'd., being upwards of 14 years of age makes his choice of his 
 brother Alpheus Wickwire to be his guardian."

 Jonathan may have had a son named Christopher. A Christo- 
 pher Wickwire was a private Nov. 3, 1759, in Capt. John Durkee's 
 Company recruited chiefly at Norwich. He was also in the service 
 in 1755-7.

 PETER- (John'), born March 2, 1694, at the North Parish of 
 New London, Conn., now known as Montville. His name appears 
 often upon the land and church records. On March 27, 1734, he 
 conveyed to Jonathan Harris for 500 pounds certain lands adjoin- 
 ing those of Col. John Livingston, deceased; and on April 12, 1736, 
 he conveyed to John Nobles 225 acres at New London, his wife 
 Patience joining to release her dower rights. In 1736/7 he was 
 chosen as a member of a committee to treat with the Indians. 
 He and his wife united with the church at the North Parish under 
 the pastorate of Rev. James Hillhouse, Nov. 21, 1722. Under 
 date of Sept. 27, 1725, Hempstead's Diary says: "A town meet- 
 ing to choose Leather Sealers. Lt. Chapman and Peter Wickwire 
 chosen." On Mar. 31, 1733, 32 acres of land on Pole's Hill were laid 
 
 -79-
 
 out to him. On April 19, 1736, he was appointed a member of a 
 committee to employ Rev. William Adams. On Mar. 7, 1736, 
 he was a member of a committee to treat with the Indians regard- 
 ing a meeting-house. In 1740 he was an attesting witness to the 
 will of Joshua Baker. 
 
 He married Feb. 29, 1720-1, Patience Chapel, b. 1699, daugh- 
 ter of John and Sarah (Lewis) Chapel, and grand daughter of 
 William and Christian Chapel, the ancestors of the Chapels of 
 Montville. The banns were published Sept. 11, 1720. Hemp- 
 stead's Diary, under date of Sunday, Dec. 1, 1734, records: "An 
 infant of Peter Wickwire's buried between meetings." Under 
 date of Feb. 6, 1742-3 the Diary says: "The widow Hannah 
 Baker an aged woman about 88 died in the N. Parish at Peter 
 Wickwire's (she was his aunt)." 
 
 The will of Peter Wickware, dated August 10, 1744, proved 
 Sept. 11, 1744, provides first that all his debts shall be paid. It 
 bequeathes to Patience, his "dearly beloved wife," a sorrell mare, 
 side saddle and bridle, two good milch cows, one feather bed and 
 furniture, and one third of all his real estate "during her widow- 
 hood"; to Peter, his son, "all the money that the Hammond farm 
 sells for," one mare, saddle and bridle, and teaming implements; 
 to his daughter Sarah 100 pounds, one milch cow and a feather 
 bed; to his daughter Amey, "when of age of 18 years," 100 pounds, 
 one milch cow and a feather bed; to the rest of his sons, viz.: 
 George, Joseph, Jeremiah, Samuel, John and Ezekiel, all the rest 
 of his estate to be equally divided among them "when they shall 
 come of full age, and to be bound to some trade as soon as they 
 come of the age of 14 years, at the discretion of my executors." 
 His wife Patience and son Peter were named as executors. David 
 Jewell, Benjamin Wheat, and Joshua Raymond were witnesses. 
 The inventory was filed Oct. 4, 1744. Among the numerous 
 articles listed were "one Beever hat," appraised at two pounds 
 and 15 shillings; one pair of silver shoe buckles, appraised at two 
 pounds; another pair of shoe buckles, appraised at one .pound and 
 
 -80-
 
 15 shillings; one great coat appraised at seven pounds; and one 
 farm, appraised at 1600 pounds. On March 25, 1760, the execu- 
 tors filed an additional inventory. The total appraised value of 
 the estate was 2634 pounds, 11 shillings, and six pence. On April 
 7, 1760, upon the petition of his son Peter, three freeholders Jason 
 Allen, Stephen Hempstead and Joshua Raymond, Jr., were ap- 
 pointed to distribute the estate. On Aug. 30, 1765, a very long 
 instrument was filed by these freeholders, apportioning the farm 
 in separate tracts among the sons George, Samuel, Joseph, Jere- 
 miah, Ezekiel and John. It gave to the widow Patience a portion 
 of the farm; "also the great lower room in the dwelling house, and 
 the chamber over it, and the westerly third part of the cellar under 
 said room."

 XII. Sarah, b. about 1745. When her brother Joseph re- 
 moved in 1761 to Bennington, Vt., she appears to have 
 accompanied him. She married about 1768, Lieut. Joseph 
 Rudd, b. 1740. The History of Bennington, p. 87, con- 
 tains the following account of her marriage: "When 
 the house, now the residence of Aaron L. Hubbell, and 
 built by his father, was built, Mr. Dewey, (the minister) 
 was present; also Joseph Rudd who was engaged to be 
 married to Sarah Wick wire, then living in a house nearly 
 opposite. Mr. Dewey, who knew of the intention of 
 marriage, said to Joseph: 'If you will go and lead Sarah 
 over here, I will marry you for nothing.' The reply was: 
 'It's a bargain.' Joseph led the young lady to the place, 
 some planks were laid down upon the timbers for a floor, 
 and they were married." He rendered marked service 
 in the Revolutionary War. He died May 25, 1818, aged 
 78. After his death she received a pension for many 
 years. Her name is on the pension roll of 1840, at which 
 time she is recorded as aged 95 years, and residing with 
 Enos Rudd. She d. Oct. 11, 1842.

 ICHABOD^ (Christopher,' John>), b. . Married at 
 
 New London March 19, 1736, Deborah Fairbanks. Hemp- 
 stead's Diary, under date of Mar. 19, 1736, says: "At night Mr. 
 Adams maried Ichabod Wickwire to Deb. Fairbanks." He re- 
 sided at Lyme. He probably died about 1763 or 1764. On Oct. 
 16, 1764, his son "Samuel Wickwire was allowed to be guardian to 
 Oliver Wickwire, bonds given, &c." Oliver was then about 19 
 years of age, and it is not improbable that such appointment was 
 necessary in order that the father's estate might be settled. About 
 1770 the widow and children removed to Cornwall. The follow- 
 ing inscriptions are taken from grave stones in a cemetery at Lime 
 Rock, just north of Cornwall, all apparently in a family plot: 
 
 "Deborah, wife of Ichabod Wickwire, died March 18, 1782, 
 aged 83 (2) years." [Difficult to decipher. Date may be 
 wrong.] 
 "Elisal, wife of John Gilbert, died April 20, 1790, aged 54." 
 "Samuel Wickwire, died Feby. 11, 1791, aged 53 years." 
 "Oliver Wickwire, died Aug. 17, 1829, aged 84 years." 
 "Lois, wife of Oliver Wickwire, died Jan. 28, 1813, aged 61 
 
 years." 
 The records of the Church at Cornwall contain the following 
 
 entries : 
 
 "Old Miss Wickwire died Mch. 8, 1787." 
 
 "Ichabod Wickwire and Submit Ford married Feb. 27, 1794." 
 Jonathan Fairbanks, the ancestor of the American family, 
 came from Yorkshire, Eng., to Boston, Mass., in 1633. His will 
 was dated June 4, 1668. He had, among others, a son Jonathan' 
 who was a soldier in King Philip's War, serving in the Mount Hope 
 and several other campaigns; the latter married Deborah, daughter 
 of Edward Shepard of Cambridge, and had, among others, a son, 
 Samuel,' b. June 2, 1665, who removed to New London, Conn.; 
 
 -83-
 
 married Christian, daughter of William and Christian Chapel and 
 had two daughters: (1) Abigail, b. about 1705, who m. Feb. 24, 
 1725, Jonathan Church, of Colchester; and (2) Deborah, who, 
 as above stated, married Ichabod Wickwire. 
 
 Hempstead's Diary under date of Mar. 30, 1750-1 says: 
 "Ichabod Wickwire and Jonas Hamilton came from Paugwonk 
 to buy my upper farm and offered ;^700, ;<£100 down, 300 at Christ- 
 mas and 300 in the next fall after." 
 
 Ichabod is said to have served in the French and Indian War, 
 and to have participated under General Wolfe in the campaign 
 against Quebec.

 soldier in the French and Indian War, serving for a time in Capt. 
 Edmund Well's Hebron Company and later in Col. Lee's Company, 
 and lost his life at Albany, Aug. 28, 1756. On Oct. 18, 1756, his 
 estate was probated at New London, John Grant being appointed 
 his administrator. The Court assigned the whole estate, after 
 payment of expenses, to the widow "for the nurture of her small 
 children and herself." The names are not given in the record. 
 
 Children :

 JAMES' (Christopher,'' John'), b. 1725; bapt. at North Parish,

 1731. He was a soldier in the French and Indian War, 1755, 
 serving in Capt. Stephen Hosmer's Company. The records de- 
 scribe him as of New Salem, in Colchester. John Grant and John 
 Gilbert also served in this company. On Dec. 23, 1753, land at 
 Millington was deeded to James and Zebediah Wickwire by their 
 brother Solomon. On April 19, 1760, Zebediah deeded his interest 
 in said land to "James Wickwire of Colchester." A deed from 
 Gershom and Elizabeth Fox to "James Wickwire of Ashford, 
 County of Windham," was recorded at Ashford Sept. 6, 1771. He 
 appears as a resident of East Haddam in the census of 1790. On 
 April 11, 1801, James then "of East Haddam" deeded land at 
 Millington to his son Benjamin. James died at Millington April 
 19, 1801, aged 76. His widow died there Sept. 5, 1819, aged 88.

 ALPHEUS^ (Jonathan,^ John'), bapt. Sept. 2, 1722, at North 
 Parish; m. at Norwich Oct. 21, 1746, Mary Barstow. Resided at 
 Norwich, and died about 1758. The Colonial Records of Con- 
 necticut, (Vol. 9, p. 314,) show that in October, 1759, upon the 
 memorial of Mary Wickwire, administratrix of the estate of Al- 
 pheus Wickwire, late of Norwich, deceased, the General Assembly 
 empowered Daniel Kingsbury of Norwich to sell so much of the 
 
 -86-
 
 real estate of deceased as to enable the administratrix to pay the 
 debts amounting to £54^7-0^. 
 
 In May, 1760, another resolution of the General Court, recited 
 that Daniel Kingsbury "hath languished under consuming sick- 
 ness and hath not nor is likely ever to be able to do said service," 
 and empowered Mary Wickwire to sell so much of the real estate 
 as might be necessary to pay the debts. 
 
 The records of marriage and births of children spell the sur- 
 name "Wickwere."

 CAPTAIN JOSEPH' (Peter,' John'), b. June 22, 1734. 
 On Jan. 1, 1749-50, he chose his brother Peter to be his guardian. 
 He married (1) Martha Story, in 1758, at Lebanon, Conn., and (2) 
 at North Bennington, Vt., Widow Mary Lawrence. His first 
 child, Francis, was born at Lebanon, Conn., where he was living 
 in 1759-61. In the summer and fall of 1761, about 20 or 30 fami- 
 lies settled at Bennington, Vt., and founded that town. Among 
 them were Joseph Wickwire and his wife Martha Story. The 
 first town meeting was held on March 31, 1762, at which he was 
 elected a member of the board of selectmen. The roll of the mem- 
 bers of the first church, still in existence, contains the name of 
 Martha Wickwire. 
 
 Bancroft's History of the United States, referring to Ben- 
 nington as it was in July, 1765, says: "Men of New England of a 
 superior sort had formed already a community of 67 families, 
 in as many houses, with an ordained minister; had elected their 
 own municipal officers; had formed their several public schools; 
 set their meeting-house among the primeval forests of beech and 
 maple; and, in a word, enjoyed the flourishing state which springs 
 rom rural industry, intelligence, and unaffected piety." 
 
 -90-
 
 The History of Bennington gives a number of items of interest 
 regarding the family. On pages 405-7 appears a copy of a docu- 
 ment dated Nov. 30, 1767, signed by Joseph Wickwire and Jona- 
 than Wickwire (his cousin, son of Jonathan"), and others, to ad- 
 just certain Indian rights. 
 
 On January 1, 1784, a paper wherein the signers agreed to be 
 taxed to pay the minister was signed by Joseph Wickwire and 72 
 others. A fac-simile of this document is found in the Wallbridge 
 Genealogy, p. 85. 
 
 His earliest military service was in August, 1757,when he served 
 in the French and Indian War as a member of Capt. Joseph Fitch's 
 Lebanon Company, during the relief of Fort William Henry. In 
 1764 he was a private in Captain John Fassett's First Company 
 of militia of Bennington. 
 
 He enlisted in October, 1776, in Captain Elijah Dewey's Com- 
 pany, of Col. Moses Robinson's Regiment of Vermont militia, 
 and served at the capture of Ticonderoga ; at Mount Independence ; 
 and at the Battle of Bennington, Aug. 16, 1777. In 1780 he was 
 a sergeant in Capt. Ebenezer Wood's Company of Col. Samuel 
 Herrick's Regiment; shortly afterwards he was promoted to the 
 rank of ensign in the same company, which was transferred to 
 Col. Ebenezer Wallbridge's Regiment; in August, 1781, he was 
 a lieutenant "on command" ; was lieutenant in Capt. E. Wood's 
 Company, Oct. 4, 1781; he served as a lieutenant at Guilford, in 
 September. 1782. Shortly afterward he became captain of one 
 of the Bennington companies. He took an active part in the 
 struggle with the New Yorkers regarding the New Hampshire 
 grants, and in January, 1784, led his company in the expedition 
 to Guilford, under the command of Ethan Allen. See Hall's 
 History of East Vermont, p. 519. 
 
 Captain Joseph Wickwire is said to have served also in the War 
 of 1812, but this has not been confirmed. He died in 1822, and 
 his will, dated Oct. 24, 1816, was admitted to probate Aug. 7, 
 
 -91-
 
 1822. The will mentions his wife Mary Wickwire, his grand- 
 children by Sarah Kingsley, his daughter, "the heir or heirs of 
 Joseph Wickwire which he had by his second wife," his grand- 
 children, children of Chapel Wickwire, deceased, his daughter 
 Patience Church, his son Roswell, "the child or children of my 
 son Rufus Wickwire, deceased, which he had by his first wife," 
 and his son Reuben, whom he appoints executor, and names 
 as residuary legatee. 
 
 His second wife died Dec. 28, 1823. Following is a copy of the 
 inscription on her monument: "Sacred to the Memory of Mary 
 Lawrence widow and relict of Captain Joseph Wickwire, who died 
 Dec. 28, 1823, aged 87 years."

 SAMUEL' (Peter,' John^, b. May 8, 1738, at the North 
 Parish. The land records at Lebanon show a deed of land to 
 Joseph Wickwire (15) in 1759, and a deed from him in 1761, ap- 
 parently just prior to his removal to Bennington, Vt. The re- 
 cords at New London disclose a deed dated Feb. 19, 1760, by 
 Samuel "of New London," to Capt. John Bradford, of all the land 
 inherited by Samuel from his father Peter. The Lebanon records 
 show that land was deeded March 20, 1761, to Samuel "of Lebanon," 
 and that he conveyed it away the following day. The next trace 
 of him is found in the New Hampshire census of 1790, at 
 which time he was residing in New Hampshire with a family 
 consisting of four females. The records also show a deed, dated 
 March 22, 1797, at Lebanon, from Capt. John Arnold to Ezekiel 
 Wickwire "of Lebanon." Probably this Ezekiel was the son of 
 Samuel. Shortly afterwards Ezekiel removed to Monmouth, 
 Maine, and on Oct. 20, 1806, he and his wife Cynthia, formerly 
 Cynthia Torrey, "both of Monmouth, in the District of Maine," 
 conveyed land situated at Lebanon. Samuel probably had the 
 children named below, besides several daughters but the birth 
 records have not been found.

 leaving no children.

 SAMUEL* (Ichabod,' Christopher,' John'), b. in 1738; m. June 
 24, 1761 , Jane Brown, at East Haddam. The land records at Lyme 
 (Hamburgh), Conn, show that on July 21, 1763 John Griswold 
 deeded to Samuel Wickwire "of Lyme," 25 acres of land bounded 
 as follows: "Beginning at the Northeast corner, at a heap of 
 stones, being the northwest corner of the Wickwire's land," &c. 
 On May 11, 1769, Samuel Gilbert of Farmington executed to 
 Samuel Wickwdre "of Lyme" a release of all claim to 16 acres 
 of land, "commencing at the westerly end of said Wickwire's farm, 
 which land I hold by deed from said Wickwire which deed is 
 dated the 24th day of September 1765." On March 23, 1770, 
 Samuel Wickwire "of Lyme" deeds to Samuel Gilbert of Farm- 
 ington certain "land lying in the aforesaid town of Lyme near a 
 place called 'Halfway Plain' and contains by estimation 55 acres, 
 with a dwelling house standing on said land." The probate court 
 records kept at East Haddam from October Session 1741 to May 
 29, 1832 (and now kept at Colchester) show the following entry 
 under date of Oct. 6, 1764: "At said Court Samuel Wickwire 
 was allowed to be guardian to Oliver Wickwire, bonds given etc." 
 
 He served in Capt. Jonathan Lattimore's Company in the 
 French and Indian War 1757. (9 Conn. Hist. Soc. Coll. 233.) He 
 served also in Capt. Nicholas Bishop's Company from June 5, to 
 Nov. 29, 1759. (10 Conn. Hist. Soc. Coll. 172.) 
 
 Samuel Wickwire removed to Cornwall about 1770. He served 
 in Captain Martin Kirtland's Company, 6th Connecticut Regiment, 
 commanded by Colonel Return J. Meigs, Revolutionary War. 
 He enlisted at Salisbury on February 20, 1778, to serve 10 months. 
 The census of 1790 states that he then resided at Cornwall and 
 that his family consisted of four sons over 16 years of age, one 
 under 16, and of two females. He d. Feb. 11, 1791, aged 53 years, 
 and was buried at Lime Rock.

 The probate record kept at East Haddam shows that on Oct. 6, 
 1764: "At said court Samuel Wickwire was allowed to be guard- 
 ian to Oliver Wickwire, bonds given," &c. Gold's History of Corn- 
 wall says : ' ' Oliver Wickwire came from New London County before 
 the time of the Revolution. He settled on the old road long since 
 discontinued running northeast from near Chester Wickwire's. 
 His nearest neighbor on the south was James Douglas." The house 
 of Oliver Wickwire was situated on Cream Hill, in the northern 
 part of Cornwall. His son Newton C. stated in 1901 that Oliver 
 served in the war of 1812. He died Aug. 17, 1829, aged 84 years.

 with his son Isaac at Darien, N. Y. His name appears as a resi- 
 dent of Litchfield in the census of 1790. His name appears in the 
 land records of Canaan from 1791 to 1798, which recite that he was 
 "of Canaan." He owned lands on the bank of the Housatonic 
 river, lying in Canaan and Cornwall. His sons John, Isaac, George

 Company of the 19th Continental Regiment, commanded by Colonel 
 Charles Webb; served in the vicinity of New York, ordered to the 
 Brooklyn front Aug. 27, closely engaged at the battle of White 
 Plains, Oct. 28; crossed the Delaware and engaged at the battle 
 of Trenton Dec. 26, 1776, and Princeton Jan. 3, 1777; was dis- 
 charged Feb. 10, 1777. He subsequently served a period of two 
 months. His name appears as a resident of Litchfield in the 
 census of 1790. He was a pensioner under the Act of March 
 18, 1818, which accorded pensions to veterans who had served in 
 the Revolution for a period of nine months or more. After his 
 death his widow Sarah received a pension. Her name is on the 
 pension roll of 1840, at which time she was residing with her son 
 Alvin. 
 
 He married April 25, 1779, Sarah, dau. of Sergeant Enos 
 and Abigail (Luddington) Barnes, born Nov. 13, 1759. Sergeant

 GRANT' (James,'' Christopher," John'), b. in 1760. He re- 
 moved, from East Haddam to Litchfield. He m. April 12, 1791, 
 Sarah Throop, b. June 12, 1776, dau. of William and Eunice (Stillson) 
 Throop. He enlisted Jan. 10, 1777 at East Haddam, in Captain 
 Holmes' Company, first Regiment Connecticut Line and served 
 for three years and was discharged Jan. 10, 1780. In November 
 1779, he was in Capt. Enoch Reed's Company, Col. Josiah Starr's 
 Regiment. In 1832 he received a pension and his name is on the 
 pension roll of 1840. He d. April 21, 1848. He is said to have 
 possessed a sense of humor. It is related that a ne'er-do-well 
 comrade, complaining because he had not received a pension, said 
 that if the authorities understood his condition in life he was sure 
 a pension would be awarded him. "Well," said Grant, sympa- 
 thetically, "I'll help you get that pension. You just make an 
 affidavit that you are not worth a dollar and I will make one 
 that you never will be.'' 
 
 His will was admitted to probate April 22, 1848. He gave his 
 daughter Sarah Ann Warren $500. He left nothing to Frederick 
 W. "as he has already received his full proportion of my estate." 
 Althea had already died. He gave the rest of his estate to the 
 other six children for life, with remainder over to their children.

 all their horses, cows and oxen and left the widow almost destitute.

 at the conclusion of the war! She afterwards married

 IV. Albert G., b. at St. Albans, Vt., Mar. 17, 1807; d. Aug. 
 31, 1839. The record of his birth has not yet been ob- 
 tained, but he was apparently the son of Roswell. Follow- 
 ing is taken from his obituary notice as found in the 
 General Minutes of the Conference of the Methodist 
 Episcopal Church for the year 1840 : 
 
 "Albert G. Wick ware was born at St. Albans, Vermont, on the 
 17th of March, 1807. At an early age he was left an orphan, but 
 not until a pious mother had sown in his young heart that seed 
 of the kingdom which was destined to spring up and bear fruit 
 unto eternal life. That fruit, however, did not appear until he 
 reached the age of nineteen. At that time his native village 
 was visited by a gracious revival of religion, and under the labors 
 of the Rev. Lorin Clarke he was awakened and converted to God. 
 This, according to his journal, was on the 17th of March, 1826, 
 the day he was nineteen years of age. 'Happy day !' he exclaims; 
 'the happiest birth-day I ever experienced.' He was soon per- 
 suaded that God required him to call sinners to repentance; and 
 under this impression left his native village in pursuit of that 
 knowledge and those requirements which he deemed important 
 in a calling so high and holy. He repaired to the Wilbraham 
 Seminary, then under the care of the Rev. Dr. Fisk, and engaged 
 with diligence in the prosecution of his studies. After continuing 
 
 -108-
 
 some time in Wilbraham, he received license to preach, and was 
 admitted on trial in the New York conference. He served an 
 acceptable probation, and was in due time admitted to member- 
 ship, being elected and ordained deacon in 1834, and elder in 1836. 
 
 The labours of our departed brother were owned of God. He 
 was a principal instrument in gathering and establishing a church 
 in Bristol circuit; and in Kingston station. New York, more than 
 one hundred professed conversion under his ministry. At the 
 conference in 1839 he was appointed in charge of the Richmond 
 circuit. He entered upon his labours with his usual zeal and ac- 
 ceptance, and with much promise of success. But scarcely had 
 he begun his work when he was arrested by a sudden and violent 
 disease. It commenced on the 10th of August, and on the 21st 
 he resigned his spirit to God. When having expressed a desire 
 to recover, his companion, whom he tenderly loved, inquired, 
 'Is it for my sake?' He replied, 'No; but that I may yet preach 
 Jesus to sinners.' At another time he exclaimed, 'If I die, 
 there is not a doubt upon my mind but that all is safe; my confi- 
 dence is strong in the Lord; these light afflictions, which are 
 but for a moment, will work out for me a far more exceeding and 
 eternal weight of glory.' In conclusion we may say, that in the 
 death of our brother the church has lost a firm friend and a promis- 
 ing minister; and we may add, that the children and youth of 
 the sabbath schools have lost one who ceased not to pray and 
 labour for their best interests." 
 
 He was pastor at Goshen, Conn., in 1835-6.

 "RENSSELAER G. WICKWIRE. 
 
 Our community has again been called to part with one of its 
 oldest and most respected residents. Thursday evening, Septem- 
 ber 24, 1896, Mr. R. G. Wickwire passed away at his residence in 
 
 -163-
 
 Akron. He was born in Middlefield, Otsego County, N. Y., May 
 28, 1806, and was accordingly 90 years, 4 months and 27 days old 
 at the time of his death. When but four years old he came with 
 his parents to Darien, Genesee County, where he lived until he 
 came in 1832 to live on his farm two miles east of this village. 
 To this farm he brought his bride, Sarah S. Whipple, in April, 1839, 
 and here they lived until recent years, when they left the farm for 
 a house in the village. After 51 years of wedded life Mrs. Wickwire 
 died January 24, 1891, leaving Mr. Wickwire with three children, 
 two sons and a daughter, namely: J. W. Wickwire, the late I. L. 
 Wickwire, and Mrs. M. E. Rumsey of Leslie, Mich. 
 
 Mr. Wickwire was in many respects quite an unusual man. 
 Always of strictly temperate habits and of great self control, he 
 was never sick, never having had to call a physician until his last 
 illness. He was not only a man with a sound body, but of a sound 
 mind also. In the home he was loving and kind, a true friend, an 
 active and useful citizen. In business he was successful, and 
 being correct and unright in life, a lover of right and justice, he 
 was universally esteemed and trusted by all who knew him. His 
 illness was of brief duration and when the end came it was most 
 peaceful. And so he passed away mourned by a large circle of 
 kindred and friends. His funeral took place at the Baptist Church, 
 Sunday morning, September 27, the services being conducted 
 by the Rev. William Elgin, pastor of the Church."

 JAMES' (Grant/ James/ Christopher/ John'), b. Feb. 1, 
 1808, at Florence, Oneida County, N. Y.; m. May 17, 1837, Julia 
 A. Wilson, b. Sept. 22, 1817, at Harwinton, Conn. ; dau. of Eli and 
 Julia (Candee) Wilson. They were pioneers in Illinois. The 
 following account of the sixtieth anniversary of their wedding is 
 taken from the Farmington Bugle of May 20, 1897: 
 
 "Monday, last, the 17th, was a rare day of the fully opened 
 spring. The social event of the day in Farmington was the cele- 
 bration of the sixtieth anniversary of the marriage in 1837 of 
 James Wickwire and Julia Wilson. 
 
 This span of 60 years has witnessed the rise and the passing 
 away of a great generation of men and events, an epoch in many 
 respects the greatest in history; most notably in the grasp which 
 understanding has gained upon the world. 
 
 When Eli Wilson and family, of which the bride of 1837, 
 Julia, was a member, first came to Illinois, it was as early as 1834. 
 They emigrated from York State and James Wickwire accompanied 
 them. He stopped at Fort Clark, now known as Peoria, while the 
 Wilson family located in Farmington. 
 
 In May, 1837, at the log cabin, the home of the Wilson family, 
 was celebrated the wedding of James Wickwire and Julia Wilson, 
 the anniversary of which was commemorated last Tuesday. They 
 resided nearby until 1856, when they removed to the stone house 
 built in 1852, and known as the Wickwire homestead. Previous 
 to and during this time the underground railway was in active 
 operation and the Wilson and Wickwire homesteads were stations, 
 and many were the fugitive slaves that these noble people helped 
 to freedom. Mr. and Mrs. Wickwire lived in the old stone house 
 continuously until last fall when they removed to their present 
 home in Farmington. Many are the interesting anecdotes and 
 stories of pioneer life that can be gathered from these worthy 
 people, but time and space forbid the mentioning. 
 
 -167-
 
 The families on both sides are represented by all that goes to 
 make Central Illinois substantial and progressive. Mr. and Mrs. 
 Wickwire are true t}^es of sterling worth. Their lives bear wit- 
 ness to the spirit of pure living and good doing and thinking that 
 dwell with them, and their impress is seen on the several genera- 
 tions of their descendants and relatives."

 EUNICE LINFORD" WICKWARE .(Melancthon Smith,*^ 
 Chapel,* Joseph,' Peter,^ John^), b. Mar. 17, 1860; m. Feb. 13, 
 1882, James W. Robottom, formerly of London, England. They 
 reside at Jersey City, N. J. The following is taken from the 
 Chicago Record of Oct. 19, 1897: 
 
 "NOTED ORIENTAL SCHOLAR. 
 
 Mrs. Eunice Linford Wickware Robottom of Jersey City, 
 N. J., is the probable Amelia B. Edwards or American Egyptolo- 
 gist of the future. She has studied diligently for ten years, and 
 
 -195-
 
 has lectured successfully in different cities and will devote her time 
 in the future to the platform and to translating papyri and ex- 
 haustive travel and exploration in Egypt. 
 
 Mrs. Robottom is a young and attractive woman, a devoted 
 mother and an accomplished housewife. Her father was a pro- 
 fessor of Greek, and through his influence and association she be- 
 came early in life an Oriental scholar. 
 
 Ten years ago, while recovering from an illness, some friend 
 sent her a copy of 'Ten Thousand Miles up the Nile.' This she 
 read with avidity, and while confined to her bed she taught her- 
 self hieroglyphics and Egyptian mythology, after which she read 
 Egyptian history, literature, fiction, poetry, essays and Egyptian 
 commonplaces; in short, everything which has any bearing on the 
 subject. The Jersey City Library, proud of her researches, has 
 sent abroad and procured works for her especial use, among which 
 is the 'Egyptian Ritual of Life and Death,' a very rare literary 
 treasure. Mrs. Robottom is now translating a papyrus which is 
 the story of the voyage of Queen Hatasu, the progressive Queen of 
 the line of the Pharaohs."

 George appears as a Christian name three times in the next 
 generation. It is not improbable that George Tonge of New 
 London was descended from this family. He named his son 
 George; his daughter, Mary Tonge Wickware, named her eldest son 
 George ; and the name frequently appears in subsequent generations.

 North Parish of New London (now known as Montville), Connec- 
 ticut. 
 
 TRACT 1. 
 
 Stafford's Forty Acres. 
 
 Comprises parcels marked 9, 10 and 11. 
 
 "May 7, 1663. Thomas Stafford hath given him forty ackers 
 of upland, on ye westward side of Mohegan river, bounded with 
 George Tonge's land toward east and from thence westerly to a 
 white oak by a ledge of rocks and so running by a ledge of rocks 
 to ye brook yat leades into ye great river." (New London Deeds, 
 vol. 3, page 21.) 
 
 Mentioned in distribution Sept. 17, 1692, of estate of George 
 Tonge, deceased: north part to Hannah Baker; middle part to 
 Elizabeth Tonge (afterwards Winthrop) ; "the southermost part 
 to Mary Wickware next her own." (Vol. 5, p. 149.) 
 
 Elizabeth transferred her part to Joshua Baker, Aug. 4, 1694. 
 (VoL5,p. 197). 
 
 See tracts 9, 10 and 11, infra. 
 
 TRACT 2. 
 
 Mathew Waller's Grant of 100 Acres. 
 "Oct. 5, 1653, One hundred ackers of upland more upwards 
 by Sawmill brook running from land given to George Tonge eighty- 
 four pole norwest up a point of land lying to ye westward end 
 of George Tonge's land neer a peese of boggie meadow and from 
 
 -235-
 
 a walnut tree marked on 2 sides and by a brook or runn one hun- 
 dred rod joyning westerly land given to Samuel Rogers and land 
 given to G. Tonge and to ye norwest bounded westerly by com- 
 mon." (Vol. 2, p. 12 and 13.) 
 
 TRACT 3. 
 
 Richard Poole's 100 Acres. 
 Comprises parcels marked 7, 7a and 7b. 
 
 Given by his last will and testament dated April 25, 1662, 
 to Margery Tonge. (wSee recital in vol. 5, N. L. Deeds, 140.) He 
 died April 26, 1662. 
 
 On July 20, 1689, Margery Tonge, as administratrix of George 
 Tonge, deceased, granted leave to Joshua Baker, her son-in-law, 
 to enter and farm this tract. (5-131). 
 
 On May 11, 1690, Margery Tonge "in consideration of great 
 love and affection for my loving grandchild George Wickware the 
 son of John Wickware and Mary his wife my daughter" granted 
 to him one-half part in all her right "to the farm that was on the 
 land of Richard Poole, sometime of New London, deceased, and 
 by said Poole given by his last will and testament to me the above 
 Margery Tonge and to my children as may more fully appear 
 by said Poole's will on record bearing date April 25, 1662, all which 
 part of said farm, both upland and meadow, the one-half of all 
 my right, lying in Mohegan and neere a coave upon the West side 
 of the Great River of New London." (5-140.) 
 
 In the distribution, Sept. 17, 1692, of the estate of George 
 Tonge, this tract was apportioned as follows: "that hundred acres 
 of Poole's, the middle part for Elizabeth Tonge, that end next the 
 Coave to Hannah Baker, and the West end to Mary Wickware." 
 
 (5-149.) 
 
 On Aug. 4, 1694, Elizabeth Tonge, in consideration of one- 
 third part of a lot in New London formerly belonging to George 
 Tonge, transferred to her by Joshua Baker in right of his wife 
 by deed of even date, conveyed to Joshua Baker "my two divisions 
 
 -236-
 
 of upland and meadow as laid out to me by the two persons ap- 
 pointed by the county court, which lyeth neere where the said 
 Baker now liveth by Mohegan fields, and was formerly the land of 
 Richard Poole and Thomas Stafford, being the one-third part of 
 140 acres and my whole right in those two parcels of land." 
 (5-197.) The lot in New London was apparently the tavern pro- 
 perty, which Elizabeth acquired. 
 
 TRACT 4. 
 George Tonge's 200 acres. 
 
 Comprises parcels 5, 6, 12, 13 and 14. Included, perhaps, 
 also land in the triangle between 12 and 13. 
 
 Vol. 3 of New London deeds, containing list of town grants, 
 sets forth the following at page 15 : 
 
 Dec. 14, 1663, to George Tonge 200 acres of upland up Mohegan 
 River on the westward side of it "joyning on land given to Thomas 
 Stafford and to the brook and w*^ ye brook westward to a ded 
 tree marked on two sides and from thence by marked trees to land 
 that was given to Mathew Waller from thence running southerly 
 to a great chesnut tree marked on four sides from thence to a 
 swamp extentes to land given to Thomas Stafford." George 
 Tonge died in 1674. 
 
 Distributed Sept. 17, 1692, as follows: "the two hundred 
 acres originally George Tonge's, the eastermost part °i it to Hannah 
 Baker, the middle to Elizabeth Tonge, and the western end to 
 Mary Wickware." (5-149.) 
 
 TRACT 5. 
 A part of the land distributed Sept. 17, 1692, to Mary Wick- 
 ware. (5-149.) 
 
 On Jan. 6, 1714, Mary Wickware, widow of John (who died 
 in March, 1712) granted to Samuel Allen "the one half of one 
 hundred acres of land formerly belonging to George Tonge being 
 the southermost part of sayd hundred acres, on the northermost 
 
 -237-
 
 of said land I have settled my son Christopher Wickware." (7, 
 1.) This tract was inherited by Jason Allen, son of Samuel Allen- 
 born about 1700. 
 
 TRACT 6. 
 
 A part of the land distributed Sept. 17, 1692 to Mary Wick- 
 ware. (5-149.) 
 
 As appears in the deed to Samuel Allen above, this tract was 
 conferred upon Christopher Wickware by his mother. 
 
 On Jany. 16, 1716/7 Christopher for 180;^ granted it to Col. 
 John Livingston, the description being as follows: "late in the 
 possession of sd. Wickware bounded and described as follows; 
 that is to say, the bounds of said land begineth at Stafford's 
 southwest corner tree and then runs up on a line westerly to a 
 chestnut stump to the southward of my slough or run of water 
 which is about 60 or 70 rods to the southward of said Wickware' s 
 dwelling house which stands on part of sd land at the rhoad side 
 which now leads to a cellar that John Wickware built and so runs 
 westerly from the sd. stump to a great rock on the hill just to the 
 northward of that part of Samuel Allen's land which he broke up 
 in the summer of the year 1716; and from thence to a white oak 
 tree in Jonathan Rogers (son of Samuel Rogers) his fifield marked 
 R; and W; being a corner tree, from which tree it runs easterly 
 along by marked trees to a large chestnut tree in swamp *viz* above 
 eight-seven rods and then southerly on a line along by the land 
 which was formerly Mrs. Elizabeth Winthrop till it comes to the 
 southwest bounds of the afores*^ Stafford being the first station; 
 * * * together with all the houses, fences, timber, waters, mines 
 and minerals thereon," &c. The deed recites that the land was 
 given to Christopher "by deed dated Dec. 3 this present year 1716." 
 "In witness whereof the said Christopher Wickwerr and Elizabeth 
 his wife in token that she resigns all her right of thirds in the 
 granted premises have hereunto set their hands and seals the 16^^ 
 day of January 1716 and 17, in the third year of the reign of King 
 George the Second." (7-122.) 
 
 -238-
 
 This tract was subsequently acquired by John Vibber. 
 
 On June 21, 1731, for a nominal consideration Christopher 
 executed a confirmatory deed to John Vibber of this tract, the 
 description being very similar to that above set forth, save that at 
 the point where the asterisk is inserted the following language 
 appears: "and is the corner bounds of land originally Mr. John 
 Wickwere's father of s^^ Christopher." (9-209.) 
 
 On Feb. 27, 1740-1 John Vibber granted this land (with addi- 
 tional land to the westward) to his son-in-law George Hill, the 
 description being as follows: "beginning at the northerly corner
