FAMILY GENEALOGIES - BARSTOW



BARSTOW

This family is of English origin, and from the West Riding of Yorkshire, where the name still occurs. According to Whittaker's Ed. of Thoresby's Hist. of Leeds, "Edmond Barstow, Esq., J. P., for the North Riding of Yorkshire, was in 1816, possessed of Hingerskil, formerly the seat of the Hoptons, being the second husband of Ellinor Hopton, of the ancient and eminent family of Hopton of Hopton, by whom he had Edward, Thomas, Mary, Eleanor, and Henrietta. He was the son of Edward, the son of Thos. Barstow, of N.Allerton, whose da. Elizabeth, m. Darcy Conyers, Esq.; and his bro. Walter, was fa. of Mr. Jeremiah Barstow, of Leeds, who, by Alice, da. of Mr. John Douglass; of Anstrop Hall, had issue Jere., Esq., Mayor of Leeds, 1706, Michael of Wakefield, and Wm. of Leeds. The oldest son, by Elizabeth, da. of Mr. WM. Brook, of Killingbrook, had issue Jere., d. unm., Wm., and Hannah."(The above is varied slightly from the original, to embrace more facts in less compass.) We find in London, at the present date, James, and Thos. I. Barstow, Esqr's., banisters, in the Temple, who were of Yorkshire. The fa. of the latter is also a lawyer, in Yorkshire. We have likewise heard of the Rev. Francis Barstow, of Scalesboro' Park, who d. ab. 1830; of Mr. Barstow, of Green Gate House, near Leeds; and of Mr. Barstow, of Headingly, near Leeds, - a man of property.( Letter of Mr. Henry Barstow, and. communication from Rev. R. Breare.) Four brothers of this name came early to N. Eng., and settled at Cambridge, Watertown, and Dedham. These were George, Michael, John, and William. Of but two, George and William, have we been able to learn when and how they came. We find that, on the 20th Sept. 1635, William Barstow, ae. 23, and Geo., ae. 21, embarked for N. Eng., in the Truelove, John Gibbs, Master. The place from which they came is not given, but they were probably of Yorkshire. The following are the principal minutes which we have obtained of The history of these brothers.

1. George, one of the brothers, according to the M'ids'x. Prob. Rec., m. Susan, da. Thos. Marrit; had land granted him in Dedham, in 1642 (Worthington's Hist. Dedham.) was a member of the An. and Hon. Art. Co., in 1644;(Hist. An. & Hon. Art. Co. ) a householder in Scit. in 1652, and a member of the second Church;(Scit. Town and Church Recs.) and d. in Camb. 18d. 6m., 1652, his will being on file, and his estate being appraised at £85 14s. 6d.( Prob. Rec. Md.) His wid. Susan, d. at Camb. in 1654, and in the Invt. of her Est., allusion is made to a "steere and cow at Dedham, and two young heifers at Scituate," and, Thos. Marrit is called her father, and was, appointed guardian to het two eh.(Prob. Rec., Vol. 1, p. 73.) This Invt. is signed by John Bridge and Michael Barstow. The names of the ch. Were;
  • 1., Margaret, bap. in Scit., Feb. 24, 160-'50,
  • 2. George, bap. in Scit., June 12, 1652, his father being then decs'd. These ch., are alluded to in the will of Michael, of Watn., in 1674, and to each he left a legacy. Of their history we know nothing with certainty. We think it highly probable, however, that the Barstows of Rehoboth, descended from the son George. There we find that Sam'l., s. George and Mary, was b. May 1, 1705, and m. Mary Mason, Mar. 29, 1733 ; and this Geo., seems to have had a son Geo., b. at a previous date, prob. as early as 1690, before the fa. sett. in R. Geo., senr., d. Ap. 6, 1726, but his age is not-given. Geo., Jr., m. Martha Mason, Sep. 29, 1715, and d. May 11, 1733. His ch. Were;
    • 1. Martha, b. Ap. 16, 1716.
    • 2. Jno., b. June 14, 1718, m. Susanna Carpenter, Mar. 15, 1743, and is prob. the one alluded to in letter of Eben'r. B., of Scot'd. Ct., who, he says, was "killed in the famous battle at the heights of Abraham, in Quebec, Canada, (1759,) leaving 3 ch., one of whom was Wm. (of Prov., m. Bethiah Bourn (?) June 10, 1773.) whose s. John (?) now resides in Killingly, Ct., and his son John is in Scot'd., Ct., and was previously of Prov., R.I.";
    • 3. Hannah, Ap. 2, 1721, d. young.
    • 4. Geo., Mar. 19, 1724, m. Abigail Mason (?) Mar. 14, 1753.
    • 5. Hannah, Feb. 7, 1726-7.

    NOTE.—Another John, called John the 3d., m. Judith Carpenter, Feb. 18, 1756 (?) and had;
    • 1. Lucy, Mar. 26, 1757 (?) d. young.
    • 2. Danl., July 25 1759.
    • 3. Abel, Oct. 20, 1760.
    • 4. Huldah, Jan. 26, 1762.
    • 5. Lucy, Jan, 26 (?) 1762,
    • 6. John, Mar. 6, 1765. “Joseph Munroe, of Rehoboth, m. Sarah Barstow, June 9, 1782."

2. Michael, brother of George, was made freeman of Mass. Mar. 3, 1635-6, and possessed in Wat., as per Rec., " 1. a homestead of 14 acs. 2. 2 acs. of meadow at beere brook. 3.-2 acs. of meadow in Plain Meadow. 4. -7 acs. of Plowland, being the 10th lot in the further plain. 5.-7 acs. of meadow, being the 10th lot in the remote meadow. 6.-12 acs. of upland beyond the further plain, being the 29th lot. 7. -a Farm of 129 acs. of upland, in the 5th division, and 8.-50 acs. of land, being a great dividend in the 4th div. and 9th lot." He was a man of note in the hist of the town, his name often occurring on its records, and he being Selectman in 1652, Rep. in 1653, and often on the Jury of trials. (Middlesex Court Files, passin.) From the disposition made of his property, we infor(sic) that he left no family. He was prob. m. and his w. Grace, d. July 20, 1671, 3 years before his own decease. No ch. are named. His will is dated June 23, 1674, and in it, he gives legacies to Rev. Jno. Sherman, of Wat.; to the Church of Christ in Wat.; and to Dea. Thos. Hastings, and Dea. Henry Bright, whom he names as his executors. The bulk of his property was disposed of as follows: " To Hannah Barstow, alias Prince, one great bible, and the debt due to me in my booke, which her first husband, Wm. Barstow was indebted, &c.; to Elizabeth, w. of Wm. Randall, of Mt., £5; the same to Susan, w. of Wm. Perry, of Mfd.; to Michael, son of John Barstow, deceased, a lot of upland, &e. in Wat.; and to John and Jeremiah, ch. of the aforesaid John Barstow, decs'd., to ea. £15. The rest of the est., after paying debts, &c. to be divided into 10 shares, 2 of wh. parts or shares were given to the ch. of his bro. Geo. B. decs'd., and 8 to the eh. of his bro. Wm. decs'd." His est. was appraised at £273 18s. 3d.(Mid. Prob. Rec. 4. 168.)

3. John, although not expressly called so, was, we have no doubt, bro. of George and Michael, and resided in Camb., where he died in 1657, the Inv. of his Est. being entered the 20 d. 12 mo. 1657,( Mid. Prob. Rec. 1, 143.) and consisting chiefly of farming utensils. In this Inv., mention is made of a widow, who appeared before the governor, Feb. 25, 1657-8 and testified to that being a true Inv. of the Est. of her hush. &c. As no will exists, we find no ch. maned; but if he be the one alluded to in the will of Michael, above, he had 3 sons, Michael, John, and Jeremiah;—and if this Michael be the one who testified in the case of a complaint vs. Susanna Woodward et. al. 1671, 3, 6,( Mid. Court Rec., An. 1671.) where he is called Michael, jr., and said to be ae. ab. 17, he was b. ab. 1654. We find that John, the father, instituted a Suit vs. Ann Hibbins, Relict and Exec. of Wm. Hibbins, desc'd., in 1656, 3, 29,(Mid. Court Rec. an. 1656.) which was but about a year before his decease. The name of his wid. we have, not learned. Michael, the son, m. Rebecca Thaire or Thayer, Jan. 12, 1676, and d. Dec. 2, 1698, leaving an only da. Hannah.( Mid. Prob. Rec. Vol. 9, pp. 225-7.) He owned “a homestall containing 6 acres of upland and meadow, with a mantion house, and barn, orchards, and cyder mill, &c.." The history of the other sons,—John and Jeremiah,—is involved in a little obscurity. There was a John Barstow in Scit. in 1678, who is called by Deane a son of Wm., formerly of Dedham, and who, he says, was prob. b. in Dedham. There was also a Jeremiah in Scit., who was " killed by the Indians in 1676," and whose wid. Lydia m. Richard Standlake, 1677. This Jeremiah is also called by Deane a son of Wm. of Dedham. But is there is no actual record of the birth of such sons to Wm., we think there is room to doubt the correctness of Deane's suggestion. It is certain that John of Camb., had sons Jno. and Jere., but not certain that Wm. had such. We think it most probable, therefore, that John and Jeremiah settled in Scituate, and were sons of John, who d. at Camb., and not of Wm. of Dedham. Of their history, and descendants, we shall speak hereafter.

4. William, the fourth bro., was in Dedham in 1636, and signed the Pet’n. for the incorp'n. of that town under the name of Contentment.(Worthington's Hist. Ded.) The 16 d. 12 mo. 1642, grants of "upland ground fit for improvement with the plough," were made to him, and to his bro. George. He was a freem. in Scit. 1649, and the first settler, of whom we have record, on the present territory of H. He was prob. m. to his w. Anne, after he came to N. Eng., but we have found no record of this marriage, and cannot, therefore, give her maiden name in full. Mr. B. was a noted man in his day, as will be seen from what we have already said of him. He was also an extensive landholder, a man of high respectability, and a worthy and enterprising citizen. He d. in Scit. in 1668, ae. 56, leavifig no win, and his wid. Anne, admm. on his Est. (Col. Rec., 3, 56.) In the will of Michael, his bro., mention is made of “8 eh. of his bro. Wm." We have succeeded in learning the names and dates of birth of but 5 of these. There seem to have been but 2 sons the rest were probably daughters. Their names were;
  • 1. Joseph, b. in Dedham, 6 d. 4 mo., 1639.
  • 2. Patience, b. in Dedham, 3 d. 10 mo., 1643, m. Moses Simmons, of Scit., 1662.
  • 3. Deborah b. in Scit. in Aug. 1650.
  • 4. Wm. b. in Scit., in Sep. 1652.
  • 5. Martha b. in Scit., 1655, m. Sam'l., eldest son of Sam'l. Prince, 1674, who d. bef. 1686. (N. E. Gen. Reg. 1851 p. 379.)

NOTE.—It would appear, from the will of Michael, of Watn., that the w. of Mr. B. m. a Prince.

5. John, s. John (3) is prob. the one who was a householder in Scit. in 1678. According to Deane, "a consid. tract of land was laid out to him W. of the So. Meeting house common, extending to Jordan Lane. His house was 50 rods south of the present road, and was afterwards the house of John Ruggles," &c. He m. Lydia Hatch, Jan. 16, 1678, da. of Wm. Hatch, who moved to Swansey, and had;
  • 1. Job, Mar. 8, 1679.
  • 2. Jeremiah, Aug. 28, 1682.
  • 3. John, Feb. 15, 1684, bap. an adult, July 18, 1708, and prob. d. unm.
  • 4. Jerusha, Nov. 21, d. Dec. 18, 1687.
  • 5. Susanna, May 5, 1689.
  • 6. Abiga1, Mar. 8, 1692.
  • 7. Lydia, Mar. 26, 1696.

6. Jeremiah, s. John (3) is prob. the one who was killed by the Indians, with Capt. Michael Pierce, of Scit., at Rehoboth, in 1676. He m. Lydia-------------, and she, after his decease, m. Richard Standlake, in 1677. The ch. of Mr. B. were;
  • 1. John, and 2. Jeremiah, and of these the wid. Lydia was appointed guardian, " to demand and recover a legacy given unto each of them by their great uncle, Michael Barstow, late of Watn. decsd., as by his will."(Col. Rec., 6, 15.) Lett's. of Adm. were granted to John, bro. of "Jeremiah, deceased, so he keep a faire accompt thereof, and be reddy to shew it before said Court, when be them required."(Ibid) According to Deane, Jeremiah, the youngest of these sons, was a captive, for a time, amongst the Indians.(Hist. Scit., 218) We have no knowledge of the subsequent history of this family.

7. Joseph, s. Wm. 4, m. Susanna Lincoln of Hm., May 16, 1666, (Hm. Rec.) and d. Ap. 17, 1712, and his wid. Jan. 31, 1730, being very aged. For some acc't of his life, see p. 18. That he was an extensive landholder, is evident from the large grants made to him by the Col. Court, which embraced many hundred acres,(Hobart's Abington. pp. 18 and 19.) now lying chiefly in Abington. These grants were in the vicinity of the grants made to Cornet Stetson, with whom Mr. B. seems to have been on terms of intimate friendship, and whose will he witnessed. ch.:

  • 5. Samuel, Jan 1, 1683.

8. William Barstow, s. Wm. (4) m. Sarah ---------, and is called a husbandman.(Prob. Rec., Plhm.) He occupied his father's house, and probably, also, to some extent, followed the business of ship-building. He was owner of a saw-mill, and of other property, which he bequeathed to 2 sons and 5 das., and his will bears date 1711. ch.:
  • 1. Rebecca, Mar. 12, 1676.
  • 2. Martha, 1678, m. John McFarland (?) Dec. 25, 1705.

Sept. 14, 1767, ae. 84, and his wid., May 7, 1782, as, 94, (as per records from Ct. ) The fa. is spoken of as a man of strong intellect, sound judgment, unbending integrity, gentlemanly deportment, and manners peculiarly bland and conciliatory. His advice and counsel were often sought, and- he was eminently a peace-maker, and a healer of divisions among his neighbors and friends. The mother was also intelligent and pious. ch.:
