As far as I can determine, there has been no proof found that says Ralph Cowgill was the husband and father of this family. What is known for sure is that Ellin Cowgill was a widow when she moved herfamily to Pennsylvania.

403 David Vibber told Alan Vibber on 9/28/2008 that his mother, Elsie, grew up in Francestown, New Hampshire. Elsie became pregnant when she was a teenager and her parents sent her off to live with the Cram family in Washington, NH. The childs birth certificate has been said to have been Daniel Elwood Gage, but it is not believed his father was a Gage. Eloise Cram told David E. Vibber and Alan D. Vibber that the father's last name was supposedly Platt. This Platt boy was never informed that he was the father of Ernest Cram (Daniel Elwood Gage).

Ernest grew up with Benjamin and Hannah Cram on Halfmoon Pond Road in Washington, NH. The Crams loved him like one of their own. It is said that he was the only kid in town with a pony.

411 "Joseph, Jr., son of Joseph and Mary Crane, was born in 1757, and married Deliverance MIlls. They lived in Milton, Mass., after their marriage until their first child, Jesse, was several months of age, when they removed to Washington, N.H., which must have been late in 1782 or early 1783. They settled on the south-east slope of Lovell's mountain, near the spot where John Vose settled. After a fewyears he removed his family to a house which stood on the mountain road to Washington Center, about a half mile east of the Vose place, and short distance east of the house which was long the home ofJoel Severance. Here they lived until the infirmities of age compelled them to give up their home and make their home with their children. Joseph Crane died in Washington, June 30, 1841. His wife died Aug. 17, 1845. Some years prior to her death she sustained a severe fracture to her thigh, which made her a cripple the remainder of her life."

In our copy of "Pierce Gage and his descendants" there is an old note that says Joseph Crane was born 1757.

His widow survived him, and died August 17, 1845. They were the genuine pioneer type, of strong character, persistent industry, and living lives marked with all the domestic virtues. In religon they were Baptists.

Among their children was Ziba, born in Wasty- ington, New Hampshire, November 19, 1796. He was reared on the family homestead and began his education in the neighborhood schools. He then learned blacksmithing, and followed his trade until he was forty-eight years of age, when he bought a farm upon which he made his home. He was a Baptist, and took an active part in church affairs, at different times occupying various official positions. He married Roxanna Proctor, who was born in Windsor, Vermont, March 12, 1801, and who died Apiil 27, 1844, aged fifty- three years, after bearing him four children, of whom are now living three—Roxanna, widow of Henry Smith; Willard; and David G.

426 Sergeant John Curtis was born about 1649. In 1673, he testified that he was twenty-four. He married Mary Looke, daughter of Thomas and Mary Looke of Boxford, December 4, 1672.The lived in Topsfield and Curtis occupied a prominent place in local affairs throughout his life. He constantly occupied minor offices in the town. He became corporal of the local militia in 1690, and sergeant about 1711. Mary joined the Topsfield church in 1685 and John in 1714.

John Curtis made his will on March 19, 1717/18, and it was admitted to probate on April 16 1718. He left his estate to his wife, Mary, sons Samuel, John, Thomas and Ephraim, daughters Sarah Smith, Elizabeth Gould, Hannah Gould, Rebecca Smith, Phebe Towne, Abigail Towne, Mary Kenney and Hepsibah Curtis. Samuel was named as his father's executor.

John's widow, Mary Curtis survived until August 12 1745, when she died in Topsfield "in her 98th year".

John and Mary had the following children:

* John born Oct 11 1673, married Priscilla Gould.
* Sarah born March 17 1675/6, married Samuel Smith.
* Mary born December 27 1677, married Henry Kenney.

429 Zacheus Curtis embarked on the "James" at Southampton, England, on April 5 1635. The Customs House record gives his occupation as laborer and his residence as Downton. A later estimate of his age indicates he was born about 1619. A large number of his fellow passengers were from Wiltshire so it is assumed his home was in the Wiltshire parish of Downton which is a few miles southeast of Salisbury.However, parish records fail to identify him.

Curtis probably settled in Salem. However, there is no record of him until 1643 when the Salem constable presented him and ten others for pasturing cattle in the north corn fields. The following yearhe was fined twenty shillings "for rash and ill-advised coming in to have sworn falcelie." He was presented for smoking tobacco in the street in 1647, but the charge was not proved. About this time he married Joanna ________, who appears as a witness in a defamation suit in 1650.

Sometime before 1658, Zacheus Curtis and his family settled in Reading on land rented from John Gould. They then went to Gloucester where Curtis was involved in a suit over a job managing a farm for William Bartholomew. The birth of their daughter, Mary is recorded in Gloucester in 1659. Soon afterward, they are found at Rowley Village (Boxford), which was then closely identified with Topsfield, and where in 1663 Zacheus Gould, the father of his former landlord at Reading, deeded to Zacheus Curtis, a parcel of land lying on the south side of Fishbrook. He also gave Curtis liberty to pasture cattle on Gould's common land and a right of way to Topsfield. By 1664/5, Curtis called himself a planter.

Zacheus Curtis died in 1682. His verbal will was testified to by John Ramsdel and Abigail Curtis, who stated they were present when Curtis lay on his deathbed, and that he declared that his will was that all of his grandsons should have twenty shillings each and his granddaughters ten shillings each, and that his son Ephraim should have the farm after his mother's death. The statement was sworn to on November 29, 1682, and John Curtis, Ephraim Curtis and Jonathan Looke, husband of Mary Curtis, assented to it. The inventory of his estate amounted to £185:16:8. The estate was much reduced by debts which totaled £134:6:8. Ephraim Curtis was appointed to administer his father's property.

Zacheus Curtis of Topsfield is listed as having served in King Phillips War.
Zacheus Curtis is listed as being a member of The Old Church, Topsfield. NOTE: Link is to Google Books.

Zacheus Curtis and his wife, Joanna had the following children:

* Zacheus born about 1646, married Mary Blake.
* John born about 1649, married Mary Looke.
* Zachariah born about 1651.
* Sarah born about 1654, married James Scales.
* Mary born May 12 1659 in Gloucester, married John Heard.
* Ephraim married Elizabeth Kelbourne.
* Abigail who testified to her father's verbal will in 1682; presented for fornication at the Quarterly Court in September 1689.

HI Alan, sorry for the delay -- we were on vacation and this week starts school for all three on three different schedules. I really did not do to much, very basic stuff. I was concentrating more on Mike's side because more had been done. I probably have some information, unfortunately so much is still packed in boxes because we are in a small rental home until we find a house here. I will try and call when things die down here and get a list of things you need and see if I have anything. My mom is Rita Magnani, now Foley. Her dob is 3/21/48. She married my step father James Kevin Foley on August 2, 1980.
The first wife was Barbara and I think she was from OHio. All I know about her is that I hated her!! My mom's dad was born in 02/22/1919 (I will check the year). He was Tony Magnani. He died Dec. 26,1999. I will check my mom's mom info. Irma Biagini Magnani (war bride from Trieste, Italy). She died in April, 1974. I will try and get more info. on that. Grandma Mabel did give me some information,just must try and track it down. Let me know what else you need and I will see what I can find. My mom's family has started a tree on genealogy.com

441 According tot he 1860 Census, it appears as though Robert (age 56) was working as a servant at the age of 13 for the Weisel family in Bedminster, Buck, PA. The weisel family consisted of Samuel who was a farmer, his wife Catherine (age 53), a son Francis (age 27), and twin daughters Eve and Catherine (age 19). Detwiler or Detweiler Robert
 
442 It appears as though William E. and Ella had two roomers in 1930; Elmer V. Holsinger (age 39) and Lee M. Hayes (age 24). Living in Harrisburg, Dauphin, PA.

It appears as though the name use to be spelled Detwiler without an "e" during the 1880 census.

Rhea May Detweiler told her son Alan Donald Vibber that her grandmother Maude changed William Detwiler's last name to include an "e", Detweiler. The story is that Willam did not like this change, butyet let it occur.

Went to the Mormon Library today to see if I could find the connection between Peter DeWitt, Gideon's father and Peter DeWitt of Frankford Plains. . . . . .

. . . . I also found:

DeWitt,

Peter, b. 08 Jul 1753, Sussex

Peter, m. Phoebe Cook 1757, Sussex

Peter, m. Pheby Cook 25 Feb. 1757 Monmouth, Ft. Monmouth.

Peter, m. Sarah Willson 30 Sept. 1800, Sussex

Eliza, m John Johnson 18 June 1836, Sussex

Martin Hinchman, Gideon DeWitt/Elizabeth Hinchman, b. 1831, Sussex

Mary, m. George W. Zabriskie 1796 Sussex, Orange

William E., Gideon DeWitt/Elizabeth b. 30 Sept. 1851

I was not fortunate enough to find a genealogy that already exists for the DeWitt family. My notes above show that more work has to be done on this branch of my forefathers. The branch of the DeWitt family from which I am descended appears to have been the one that located in Warren County, New Jersey, containing Peter, Abram, and Isaac. Most likely, all branches can be traced back to Holland andone common ancestry.

450 3. JOHN3 Eaton, born 17 Sept. 1671, son of John2 and Alice Eaton, married Ann Whiting and lived in Dedham, probably at his father's homestead on Dedham Island. He died 28 Oct. 1694 at the age of 23, only a few months after their marriage. His widow married, 2dly, 4 April 1700, John Lewis, and sdly, n Aug. 1725, James Herring. She died 9 March 1749. (Dedham Hist. Reg. Jany. 1895.) Child :—

7. John*, b. 4 April 1694; m. 23 April 1729, Elizabeth Lovering, and died 23 Feb. 1770. This was the John Eaton who bought the farm on Purgatory Plain.

When did John2 Eaton die ? He was living in 1694 at the time when his oldest son died; and in volume five of the Dedham town records we can trace him still further. His name appears regularly in the tax lists from the date of his father's death until the year 1701. From 1700 to 1704 it is listed in combination with that of a son, viz:—

John & Willi Eaton.

After the year 1704, John Eaton's name disappears entirely from the lists, and that of William takes its place; so that it is probable that John2 gave up the care of the farms to his son; and his descendants may believe that the closing years of the old man's life were calm and peaceful after the sickness and misfortunes that he had experienced.

Whether he had learned, as have his descendants and successors, the charm of standing on the Great Rock and enjoying the extensive view of the Charles River meadows with Roxbury and Newton hills not far distant; or, sheltered from northerly winds in one of the depressions of its southerly face, he looked across the river flowing in front, and contemplated the settlement, which had grown in his day from a small hamlet to what must have seemed to him a respectable town, with its meetinghouse and school house and tavern; or whether, as appreciation of natural scenery is a modern cultivated taste, he contented himself with sitting in the sunshine at his home, the Rock must have been an object of his daily vision.

The next occurrence of his name on record, is on a deed made in 1706, selling a farm to his son. Judging from the tax lists William3 had doubtless been in charge of the estate for some years, and nowa portion is sold to him. A reason for not examining this deed before and recognizing its importance as bearing on the problems that we are trying to solve, was that, though dated in 1706, it was notrecorded until 1740, and being indexed 1740, it was not suspected of being a deed of John,2 but thought to be merely a casual purchase and sale by some later John.

Date 1706,23 March, ackd March 25, 1706, Entered Oct. 9, 1740.

I, John Eaton of Dedham, yeoman, for £ 30. in hand and secured to be paid by my son William Eaton of Dedham, sell to him one parcell of land meadow and swamp in Dedham upon the Great Island planting field, being 30 acres more or less . . . bounded . . upon land of Michael Metcalf towards the west, the meadow of Samuel & Ephraim Ware towards the north, Charles River and the Pond towards the east and land of Sam1 Ware towards the south .... said land is my own proper estate .... (Suffolk Deeds, Lib. LXI., p. 3.)

The above farm was in the neighborhood of what is now called Motley's Pond, and it is evident that John2 Eaton continued to hold the homestead estate containing the Rock. This homestead also came afterwards into possession of William3 by inheritance, as will be shown by inventory of his estate.

Another deed of John2 is found and is dated in 1710:—
Date 27 March 1710. Entered Oct. 3, 1717.

I, John Eaton of Dedham, husbandman, for good pay by John Gill sell to him Eight acres not far distant from Magus Hill. (Suffolk Deeds, Lib. XXXII., p. 75.)

EATONS OF SALISBURY

HAVERHILL EATONS

Col. Chester London

John Eaton, Clerk. A. M. & Ann Grossman, of the City of London—wid. of Crossman, late of Ipswich Co. Suffolk Clerk at gt Paulls Wharf London 26 Dec 1621

EATON

John Eaton, with his wife Anne and six children, two sons and four daughters, is known to have been in Cholcester, now Salisbury, Mass, as early as "ye 26th of ye 6th mo. 1640," *When they were granted to him 2 acres, more or less for his house lott, lying between the house lotts of Mr. Samuel Hall and Ralfe Blesdale" Said to be about equally distant from the Atlantic and the Merrimac.

He remained there about six years, when he removed to Haverhill, 15 miles up the river, when he received a deed of land dated Nov. 25, 1646, from Rev. Nathaniel Ward, of Ipswich, for which he gave "the full sum of twelve pounds worth of wheat and pipe staves, 6 pounds worth of one and six pounds worth of the other."**

John Eaton was a cooper and farmer and dealt considerably in real estate. He was proprietor in 1639 and 1646-48 a town officer. In 1650 A Salisbury Commoner rated f.o. 34. 7. He was a man of strong will power, tempered by sound practical judgment, who believed in liberty of conscience and toleration in society. John and Anne Eaton, it is supposed, were m. in England in 1618.*** It is thought thattheir six children were all born in England though their names are recorded in Salisbury in the following order:

Issue
2 1 John b 1619; settled in Salisbury, m Martha Rowlandson
3 2 Ensign Thomas b 1618; settled in Haverhill; m (1) Martha Kent; m (2) Unice Singletery, dau of Richard, of Salisbury, 6 Jan. 1659; (m at Andover, Mass.)
4 3 Anne b 1622; m Lieut. George Brown, June 25, 1645, and rem. to Haverhill; d 1683
5 4 Elizabeth b 1625; m James Davis
6 5 Ruth b 1628; m John Ingalls in 1668
7 6 Esther (Hester) b 1634; d unm. 1649.

Anne, wife of John Eaton, d Feb. 5, 1660. He m (2) Mrs. Phebe Dow, widow of Thomas Dow, of Newbury, Nov. 20, 1661, and d Oct. 29, 1668; will proved April 13, 1669; his 2nd wife survived him four years, d Nov. 3, 1672.

Whatever may have been the cause of the emigration of this Eaton family from the Old Country, one thing is plain, the leader was a man of conviction, who acted upon his own judgment. His general course of conduct from the time he left Salisbury till he d in Haverhill shows he was capable under God of being the architect of his own fortune. His autograph, his dealings in real estate, and his official relations in Salisbury, his breaking away from his associates, his choice of a home in Haverhill, and his last will and testament, are so many testimonials of his ability and integrity. The general standing of the Eatons of America to-day is such as to reflect honor on the name.

John and Anne and six children lived near the "Great Neck Bridge" on the "beach road". This homestead has never passed out of the Eaton family and is now owned by seven sisters in equal and undividedshares, under the name of "Brookside Farm".

In 1646 John Eaton was grand juror and also one of the "Prudential Men" to manage the affairs of the town. One of his entries in the record of the town of Haverhill is "Anne ye wife of John Eaton died on the 5 of Feb. 1660".

Another John Eaton, Sen. and Phebe Dow, widow of Thomas, of Newbury were m ye 20 Nov. 1661

John Eaton Sen. d Oct. 29, 1668 aged 73; Mrs. Phebe Eaton, d in 1672.

From an exact copy of the original entries on the first leaf of one of the town's books of ancient records of the First Settlers of Salisbury, is found the name of John Eaton sen.

Without doubt Ann Crossman was 2d wife to John Eaton and Phebe Dow 3d. Name of 1st wife unknown. Issue of 1st wife 2 sons: by 2d, 4 daus. (Marriage of John Eaton given on p. 363).

*Note The earliest grants of land (Eaton Hist- o£ Grants) in Salisbury were given to John Eaton. Francestown.

**Note John Eaton, in the fall of 1647, transferred his homestead and rights as one of the proprietors to his son, John Eaton, ??d removed to Haverhill, Mass., where he employed himself in the manufacture of staves.

*** John Eaton without debt m Anne Crossman as 2d w. in 1621; m 1st in 1617-18.

John Eaton, immigrant ancestor, came to New England and settled in Salisbury, Massachusetts, where he was a proprietor in 1639. He had a grant of land there and remained until the close of the year 1646. He was grand juror in 1646 and one of the prudential men. His house was near "great neck bridge on the beach road," nearly south of the present town office. This farm has always been owned by thefamily and is now known as Brookside Farm. He was a cooper and a farmer, and in the latter part of 1646 removed to Haverhill. He married (first) probably in England, Anne , who died February 5, 1660.He married (second) November 20, 1661, Phebe Dow, widow of Thomas Dow, of Newbury.

From the death of Dr. Griggs until about 1730, there was apparently no settled physician in what is now Danvers. Dr. Daniel Felch doubtless practiced among the families of Salem Village from 1718-1729. He was the son of Henry and Hannah Felch of Beading and located in the Will's hill section of the Village, in that part later set off as Middleton. He bought of Joseph White, in 1720, a new house and 28 acres of land, which was the original farm of William Way. The first town meetings in Middleton were held at his house, the cellar of which could be seen as late as 1888 nearly opposite the house of the late Addison Tyler. He married first, at Beading, May 2, 1702, Deborah Deane of Charlestown; married, second, Sarah ; married, third, by Eev. Peter Clark, Hepzibah Curtis.

In his later life he removed to Seabrook, where he became the progenitor of all the New Hampshire family of that name. He died at Seabrook, Oct. 5, 1752, aged 84 years.

490 (IV) Ebenezer Felch, son of John Felch (3), was born in Reading, Massachusetts, July 20, 1701. When a young child his family removed to Weston, adjoining Natick, Massachusetts. In 1723, before his marriage, he located in Natick which was then and for many years afterward an Indian town, and he was the fourth white settler. Tradition tells us that he came as an assistant superintendent of the Indians who were not entirely self-governing at that time. In 1731-32 he was the teacher of the public school; in June, 1746, he was elected town clerk, an office he held for fifteen years. He also held other town offices from time to time. He was deacon of the Natick church under the ministry of Rev. Oliver Pea- body, who was installed in 1741. His home was in the northern part of the town known as North Natick. The homestead, or a considerable part of it, still remains in the possession of his descendants. He was a farmer, a useful and prominent citizen, one of the foremost of his day and locality. He married, May 15, 1728, Mary Bacon, of Needham, Massachusetts. Children: 1. John, mentioned below. 2. Stephen, born September 10, 1731, removed to Walpole, Massachusetts; was of peculiar characteristics, fond of mathematics and casting horoscopes; had five daughters, Hannah, Olive, Abi, Polly and Rebecca. 3. Daniel, born December 8, 1734, married, April 9, 1763, Annie Bent, of Sudbury; he went to Annapolis, Port Royal, in 1746, with other Natick soldiers. 4. Mary, died unmarried August 6, 1813.

Ebenezer Felch. 1701-1779. Son of John. Born at Reading July 20, 1701. Married May 15, 1728, Mary, daughter of Stephen Bacon. He went to Natick in 1723, being the fourth white settler there. It is said that he went there as assistant superintendent of Indians. Natick—the "place of hills"—was established by John Eliot, the "apostle to the Indians," in 1650. There he gathered his converts together and founded, in 1660, the first church of Christian Indians in America. Natick was an Indian village for nearly a century. The first records of the settlement were kept in the Indian language. Ebenezer Felch was the first white deacon of John Eliot's Indian church, being elected to that office by the Indians April 29, 1731. The John Eliot church is still at Natick, and there still stands the apostle's famous oak tree, but the red men are all gone. Civilization and Christianity did not agree with them. There were, it is said, five of the Natick Indians living in 1792 and one last Indian as lateas 1855.

Ebenezer Felch was teacher of the public school at Natick and was also surveyor, assessor, the first selectman, moderator of town meetings and the first town clerk. He held this latter office for fifteen years or up to the time of his departure for Nova Scotia. His son, John, succeeded him as town clerk at Natick and in most of his other offices. Henry Evans, Ebenezer Felch and David Bent constituted a deputation sent in 1759, from the Massachusetts Bay province to the province of Nova Scotia, to confer with Governor Lawrence in reference to a grant of land. He became one of the grantees of the township of Annapolis, N. S., in 1759. This was known as the Felch-Evans grant. He was one of the company which sailed from Boston for Annapolis May 17, 1760, by the "Charming Molly." There were 45emigrant-passengers by this vessel and a considerable number of horses and cattle. Both before and after his emigration to Nova Scotia he transferred various parcels of land in Natick to his sons John and Daniel. Daniel Felch settled in Nova Scotia, with his father. Each settler had apportioned to him a lot of 500 acres of " forest primeval" in addition to a portion of the cultivated marsh and upland which had been previously the property of the French inhabitants—the unfortunate Acadians of the land of Longfellow's " Evangeline." In 1770 Eb- enezer Felch was entered in census returns of township of Annapolis as holding 748 acres of land, and his son Daniel 642 acres. He died in Annapolis county in 1779. His children were:

John. b. April 6, 1729. m. April 28, 1757, Mary Bacon. He was of Natick, innholder. He was Captain in militia and was on the Crown Point and other Colonial military expeditions. He was a Revolutionary soldier and was killed at the battle of White Plains, Oct. 28, 1776. Left 6 children. His widow, Mary, died at Natick, Aug. 26, 1813, aa. 76.

Stephen, b. Sept. 10, 1731. m. 1754, Hannah Fisher. Settled at Walpole. d. June 12, 1823. Left 5 daughters. He served for 8 months, as sergeant in Col. Ebenezer Nichols' regiment in the campaign of 1758 against the French.

492 David Vibber told Alan Vibber on 9/28/2008 that Elsie grew up in Francestown, New Hampshire. Elsie became pregnant when she was a teenager and her parents sent her off to live with the Cram family inWashington, NH. The childs birth certificate has been said to have been Daniel Elwood Gage, but it is not believed his father was a Gage. Eloise Cram told David E. Vibber and Alan D. Vibber that the father's last name was supposedly Platt. This Platt boy was never informed that he was the father of Ernest Cram (Daniel Elwood Cram).

Elsie was mother of Ernest Cram (Daniel Elwood Gage) on his birth certificate to name given by Ernest grandfather Felch born *Wouburn, Mass. Ernests 1/2 sister Heazel Kimbel married Ralph Sanborn. They lived in Arlington, Mass? Their children Shirley and Lee. Ernest born 1896 April 5

*Most likely meant Woburn, Mass.

497 The surname Felch is of Welsh origin, and in the early records is variously spelled Felt, Felch, Ffdsh, Falch, McFelch, Feltch. In Wales the spellings Felcks, Foulches and Foulvks are found. We are told that this family has the same lineage as the Hughes family, Barons of Edeirnion, county Merioneth, Wales, which derives its royal lineage through the ancient princes, Powys and monarchs of North and South Wales, from Roderick the Great, or Rhodri Maur.

(I) Henry Felch, the immigrant ancestor, born in Wales as early as 1585, settled at Gloucester before it became a town. He owned six acres there in 1642, not among the early grants, indicating that he preceded the founders and proprietors of the town. He was a proprietor in 1641. The earliest record of him is the date of his daughter's marriage, March 2, 1641-42, to Samuel Hayward at Gloucester. He had land in Watertown in 1642. He left Gloucester before 1649 and settled in Boston. Some authorities state that he went to Reading where his son located. He sold his land and house at Gloucester to James A very. His will was made July 4, 1670; proved September 27, following, bequeathing to wife; to sons Henry Felch and Samuel Dunton; to each of his grandchildren. His daughter Mary and her husband, John Wil- burn or Wilborne, deeded land August 2, 1671, to her mother. Elizabeth Felch, widow. Henry Felch married twice. His wife Margaret died June 23, 1655, and his second wife, Elizabeth, survived him. Children: I. Daughter married Samuel Hayward. 2. Henry, Jr., of Reading, mentioned below. 3. Daughter married Samuel Dunton, of Reading. 4. Mary, married John Wilburn or Wilborne, mariner.

FELCH.

The first known of this family this side the water was Henry Felch, who lived in Gloucester, Mass., as early as 1641. He was of Welsh race, and is understood to have descended from David, Prince of North Wales, and Mary, his wife, who was a grand daughter of Henry I. of England. The name was sometimes spelled Falch. Henry's wife was named Elizabeth; and they had a son Henry, who m. Hannah, and settled in Reading, Mass.

FELCH Like many other patronymics this name, which is in all probability of Welshorigin, has passed through several forms of spelling, such as Feleks, Faleh, McFaleh, Feltch and Feleh. There is strong evidence to prove that the Felehes are descended from David, Prince of North Wales and his princess, Mary, granddaughter of King Henry the First of England, daughter of Geoffrey Fulk. Count of Anjou, and therefore a sister of Henry the Second. It is claimed that the name Plantagenet, borne by sovereigns of England for more than three hundred years, originated with this Geoffrey, Count of Anjou, who wore in his bonnet a sprig of br,oom (Plantagenista).

(I) Henry Feleh, the first of the name in New England, came from Wales, and first appeared in the records of Gloucester, Massachusetts, in 1641. It is thought that he had two wives, and that the first one accompanied him to America, as there is a record of the death of Margaret, wife of Henry Feleh, June 23, 1655. The Christian name of his second wife was Elizabeth, and she survived him some twelve years. His will was probated September 27, 1670, and he probably died in August of that year. He was the father of at least two daughters and one son.

FELCH The surname Felch is of Welsh origin and in the early records is variously spelled Felt, Felch, Ffelch. Falch. McFelch, Feltch. In Wales the spellings Felcks. Foulches and Foulcks are found. Weare told that this family has the same lineage as the Hughes family, Barons of Edeirnion, county Merioneth, Wales, which derives its royal lineage through the ancient princes Powys and monarchs of North and South Wales, from Roderick the Great, or Rhodri Maur.

A FELCH-FELTCH PEDIGREE.

BY FRANK HERVEY PETTINGELL.

1. Henry Felch, first of the name in this country. was born about 1590. He is supposed to have come from Wales with the party of the Rev. Richard Blynuian, in 1640, which landed first at Plymouth, where Mr. Blynman is mentioned in the records March 2, 1641; next at Marshfield (incorporated March 1, 1642), then called Green's Harbor. In less than a year the party removed to Gloucester, where, in 1642, Henry Felch was the owner of " six acres of hoed ground," of which there is no grant in the records, so it may be inferred he was there before the incorporation of the town of Gloucester, which was settled between October, 1641, when the bounds of the town were approved by the General Court, and May, 1642, when it was established or incorporated as a plantation called Gloucester. The first marriage on the Gloucester records is that of "a _____ daughter of Henry Felch to Samuel Haieward, March 2,1641" (N.S.). Savage indicates that her name was Isabel, but there are several reasons why thisis not likely.

Henry Felch was proprietor at Watertown in 1642 and perhaps of Reading in 1644. He resided during his later years at Boston, where he died in August, 1670 ; will dated July 4 and proved Sept. 27, 1670. Presumably before coming to America he married, first, Margaret, whose parentage is not yet determined. She died in Boston, 23: 4th mo., 1655, and he married, second, Elizabeth, widow of Thomas Wiborne, who came in the ship " Castle " in 1638 from Tenterden, County Kent, Eng- litnd, and died in Boston, 2: 7th mo., 1656 ; will probated 28 Oct., 1656. Elizabeth Wiborne-Felch died at Boston, 12 May, 1682.

Children, by wife Margaret:—

2. Henry, b. about 1610.
3. (perhaps Isabel), in. 2 Mar., 1641, at Gloucester, Samuel Haieward.
4. Anna (or Hannah), m. Samuel Dnnton of Reading, who d. before or about 1695. She d. 11 July, 1689.
5. Mary, m. John Wiburn (or Wiborne), son of Thomas and Elizabeth Wiborne.

The name of Felch or Felt is probably of Flemish origin and was brought into England in the reign of Queen Elizabeth, when some 30,000 Flemish weavers went from the Netherlands to England in search of religious freedom. This was a much larger number of people than came to America in the whole so-called Puritan immigration of 1620-40.

Henry Felch. d. 1670. Probably a native of Wales. Came to America about 1640. AVas a settler and proprietor at Gloucester in 1641 and Watertown in 1642. His wife, Margarett, died June 23, 1655, He married (2), probably about 1657, Elizabeth, widow of Thomas Wyborne, who came from Tenterden, Kent, Eng., about 1638. Her son, John Wyborne, married Mary, (laughter of Henry Felch. He is thought to have removed to Boston about 1654 and to have lived there until his death. He died in Boston in August 1670. His widow, Elizabeth, was living in 1686 and probably died about 1695.

499 (VII) Hiram Moody, second son and third and youngest child of Leonard and Katherine (Blodgett) Felch, was born in Weare. July .11, 1836. His educational opportunities were limited, but he made excellent use of the small amount of time allotted him for his school attendance, and supplemented this by earnest home effort. Upon attaining his majority he purchased the homestead farm, paying for it as circumstances would permit, and has since made large additions to his real estate holdings. He now owns one thousand acres of land and four houses in the village of East Weare, acquiring the means forthe purchase by his industry and frugality. He established himself in the meat business at Weare in 1866 and built up a profitable trade, later admitting his son, Asa E., into partnership. He collected and drove fortnightly to Lowell, Massachusetts, from 1868 to 1876, large numbers of cattle and sheep for sale in that city. On his farm in East Weare he keeps from thirty to forty head of cattle, from one hundred to one hundred and fifty sheep, and has had on hand at one time as many as five hundred new milch cows.
