Introduction to the First Edition.
Eight years have eLipsed since I began tracing the
records of my Harwood ancestors and relatives, and
I have now the pleasure of presenting to the de-
scendants of my ancestor, James Eauwood, tliis
brief sketch of oar branch of the Xew Enghmd Har-
vvoods.
Wlien I first began tracing the records I had no
thought of writing the family history. I was led
to engage in the work simply from a desii'e to know
more of my ancestry in the Harwood line. But
as my interest in the work increased, 1 decided to
publish the records in some form, so that the mem-
ory of our ancestors might be per})etuated, and we,
their descendants, might come to know more of one
another.
Being the lirst to write the history of our branch
of Ilarwoods, I have had to collect most of the I'ec-
ords from original sources, thus adding greatly to
the labor of the undertaking. I wish here to ac-
knowledge the kindness of those who ha^•e aided
me with their letters or orally in tracing out these
n INTODUCTION T(^ FIRST EDITION
ivH'ords. A list of those who have thus aided me
will he found at the end of the book.
In arranging these records I have aimed to give
the facts which I have collected in as plain and con-
cise a nianne]- as possible, and so arranged that the
connection may be easily seen. With regard to
this arrangement it will be noticed that all who
liave borne the name of Haiiwoou are numbered,
begininng with our common ancestor. Ja.mks, and
carrying the order down through all the genera-
tions. An index will l)e found in the back part of
the book giving the name and number of each liar-
wood whose name is enrolled in this work.
T have taken [)articular care to get the names and
dates coriect and 1 think that all parts of the record
may l)e relied upon as accurate.
In conclusion T would say that this has been a
work I'eipiiriug much labor and ex[)ense: and T hope
it may meet the ends for whicli it is designed in giv-
iiii:- us a better knowledge of our ancestors, and eii-
abliiiu us. theii' descendants, to l)ecome bettei- ac-
<jiiaiuted with one auollier. Should this ho])e be
rt.^alized. my labor will not havt^ been in vain.

Preface to the Second Edition.
Twelve years ago I published in i)aTi)[»hlet form
the results of myAvork up to that time in ti'acing
the history and records of our l)ranch of the Xew
England Harwoods. I was then but a young man
trying to make my way through school and college,
with little time and means at my disposal for en-
gaging in genealogical researches. But I loved the
latter work, to me it was rest and recreation, and in
such a spirit I followed it till the little book
alluded to above was compiled and published.
Since then many ex])ei'iences such as are common
to this life have come to me, but none which has
brought such pain as the loss of an only child, n
bright, beautiful boy. who in the ten months God
permitted him to stay with us. romi)lete]y wove
himself into my life and affections. In my loneli-
ness since his death the thought has come tc) me
that I would now take u[) the work 1 had all along-
intended sometime to do— complete and i)ublish a
second edition of the history of our familv.
•>> PREFACE TO SECOND EDITIOX.
l-l\pr since the iirst edition was jmljlislied I have
continued to collect material for a second, and I
think the records herein contained will be found as
accui'ate and complete Jis it is now possible to make
them. Nevei'theless. it can hardly be expected that
no eiroi's will l^e made in writing such a work: it is
even possible that there may l)e errors in the very
ari'angement of the early generations of the family.
\\'hen we remember that there are several distinct
branches of Harwoods in ]Sew England, as well as
several in the Sonthein States, and that the ances-
tors of these different families immigrated from Eng-
land to America at al)out the same time: when we
finther take into account that in almost every town
where our forefathers dwelt there were also living-
families of the other branches of our name; and,
V hnn. with all this we take into consideration that
the pally town records, which were often but impel'-
fpctly k(Mpt. are now in many places lost, we cannot
think it strange that such a work should be inconi-
]«!etH in sjiite of the ni(.st careful painstaking. All
that tlip most faithful geneak)gist can do is to take
the material now obtainable, study carefully eacU
i!oul;tful reccird. and givt- it the ])l;!ce to which it
sei-nis uio>t pi'obable to belong. This I have done,
aii'l in ca~<es of uncertainty I have used the woid

The Harwood Family in America.
The earliest record we liave of our name in Amer-
ica states that \\'illiam Ilarwood came to ^'irginia
in l&2\. Thomas llai'wood was in \'irginia in JC2*2.
Paul Harwood, aged 2<t year.s, was in X'irginia in
1023. Augustine Haiwood, aged 2.") yeai's, sailed
from London foi' N'irginia in ]i')o4:. Ral])h Harwood,
aged 28. sailed from London for Wirgiuia in 10;M.
Thonuis Harwood, aged '20, sailed fi'om London for
A'irginia in 10:5.'). IJobert llai'wood, aged 17, came
to N'irginia in 10;>."). Also Jolm flarwood, or Mar
wood, aged 17. came to V'iiginia in 103,").
The Harwoods were also eai'ly in Mai viand, and
there ai'e numerous families in this country de-
scf'uded from the Maryland branches.
Turning now our attention to Xew Kngland, we
learn that (Jeorgt; Harwood was the first treasurer of
the Massachusetts Company, but did not himself

doubtless other families of llarwoods eai'ly in this

name was well represented in all the early English
settlements in America.

On the 18th of May, ItiTG, occurred what has since

Capt. Turner with his men surprised the Indians at
a ])lace of swift water, where they were engaged in

and other Xe^v Hampshire records, give tlie date of
James Harwood" s death as December. 1777. in the

for both agj'ee in stating that cuir ancestor died in
the Revolutionary Army. His was a life of pat
riotic service, a life of which his descenHaid.s to tlic

earned he used in relieving the necessities of him-

to make shoes, and it became quite a business. His

Wisconsin, he managed to secrete when taken pris-

Florence, where he cai'ried on the same business
also. He iiad a razoi' which he carried all the way

gave a greenback dollar for a pound of salt, that
had just been taken from ;i pork barrel. Sometimes
the men v, ho went out to gather wood, would be
allowed to bring in an extra stick for their own use.

Chirairo. 111.; Dr. E. V. X. Hai-wood. now deceased,
of Rutland, Vt.: Mrs. Alice TI. Holt, deceased, of
Milford, X. 11.. and Rev. Anson Titii.s. of Tuffs
College. Mass.. have all given me valuable aid in
compiling these records, especially the records of

And, now. after tweiity-five years of toil to pre-
pare a suitable liistoi'y of our branch of the New
England Harwoods. I thank God that I approach
the end of the task. I have met with some dis-
heartening experiences, some of them springing up
in the most unexpected quarters, but much of the
way has been made l)riglit by a kindly interest and
appreciation of my undertaking which is most
l)leasant to remember.
