[Anna Maria.ged]

During the winter of 1741/42, 19 year old Philipp Christoph Vogler and his father, Hans Georg Vogler, left the other members of the family, including Hans Georg's daughter and his second wife, Anna Maria for North America. They arrived in October, 1742 aboard the ship Lydia, along with about 50 other passengers at Broad Bay, Maine (present-day Waldoboro).

On November 5, 1770, news was received in Salem that more families (some came down the year before) from Broad Bay had reached Carolina, and that Br. George Soelle was with them; he arrived December 6th. David Rominger's wife and the Vogler family came on the 12th, except Mrs. Vogler, who had died in Cross Creek, NC.

Served in the French and Indian War(1754-1763) and King George's War(1744-1748)

-Information from the Moravian Archives at Winston-Salem, NC-08-2000--gave birth year as 1725, but this conflicts with brother Rudolf's birth, and also with the the above paragraph concerning his arrival at age 19.

From his memoir--He was brought up in the Lutheran faith. Along with farming he learned the trade of Tailor. He served in the French and Indian War for 3 or 4 years, where he was on Cape Breton. Around 1761 he heard some of the Brethren of the Moravian Church, and decided to join with them. He and his family, minus son John who stayed in New England, went to North Carolina in 1770. They arrived in November 1770.

Info from the book "Broad Bay Pioneers" by Whitaker & Horlacher--Hans went with Col. Samuel Waldo on the Cape Breton Expedition to Louisbourg with his oldest son Philip and with Sebastian Zouberbuhler in 1744 & 1745.

From "Lists of the Germans in Waldoboro, Maine":

May 13, 1754: "Poor deserted Germans" petn. The settlers are exposed to likely Indian attacks and face starvation. Broadbay has "above 130 families" with "almost 500 souls". Aside from the 18 signers, there are others, "who living very much dispersed, can not always assemble.":

[Master Tree.FTW]

Daniel and his wife settled in the town of Hull where he became a man of prominence, especially during the War of the Revolution. Richard Derby of Salem reported, October 3, 1776 that on the previous evening the brigantine Massachusetts, "belonging to this State, aryved here." She bad been cruising during September under the command of Captain Daniel Souther, who, Derby says, "Informs me that a few Days after he sailed he fell in with & Took a Brigantine of about 250 Tons from Falmouth in England mounting six three pound Cannon & having on board a Captain & about 20 Privates of the 16th Regiment of Dragoons, with their Horse Accoutrements . . . He parted from the Prize this Day week in a Storm which has Continued almost ever since, but as the wind has been favourable this Day or two I Expect every moment to see or to hear of her being aryved at Boston. The prisoners in all amount to 35 which Cap Souther tho't too many to Cary the Cruise with him & therefor tho't best to Return & Land them, Espetially as he Expected to Do it in a few Days, but Gales of wind have prevented him. The Honble Board I hope will send me Directions how to Dispose of the Prisoners . . . They say the People in Brittain know Nothing what is passing in America & Capt Souther Informs me the Chaplain has told him the People in England begin to grow very weary." (Massachusetts Mag., October, 1908; Boston Gazette, October 7, 1776.)

Daniel and Judith were buried in the Hull Municipal Burying Ground, in the old section, near the crest of the hill overlooking the bay.

A paragraph found in Massachusetts: A Guide to the Pilgrim State, edited by Ray Bearse, (Houghton Mifflin Company, Boston, 1971), refers to Daniel Souther and his home at Hull, MA.

"Cushing House (Private), northeast of the center on Spring Street, was built in 1725. The two and a half story house, once owned by Royal Navy Captain Daniel Souther, a Cushing relative, was visited by Revolutionary firebrand James Otis.

Notes for Robert Blair:

Robert Blair was born at Irvine in the year 1593. His father was John Blair of Windyedge, a younger brother of the ancient and honourable family of Blair of that ilk; his mother was Beatrix Muir, of the ancient family of Rowallan. His father died when he was young, leaving his mother with six children, of whom Robert was the youngest. She continued nearly fifty years a widow, and lived till she was an hundred years old.

Robert entered the College of Glasgow, about the year 1608, where he studied hard, and made great progress; but lest he should have been puffed up with his proficiency, as he himself observes, the Lord was pleased to visit him with a tertian fever, for full four months, to the great detriment of his studies.

Nothing remarkable occurred till the 20th year of his age, when he gave himself sometimes to the exercise of archery, and the like recreations; but lest his studies should have been hindered, he resolved to be busy at them every other night, and, for that purpose, could find no place so proper as a room whereunto none were inclined to go, by reason of an apparition that was said to frequent it. Yea, it is said, that he himself had here seen the devil, in the likeness of one of his fellow-students, whom he took to be really his companion; but chasing him to the corner of the room, and offering to pull him out, he found nothing; at which, however, he was not at all troubled, studying the one part of the night without fear, and sleeping the other very sweetly, believing in Him who was still his great Preserver and Protector for ever.

Having now finished his course of philosophy, under the discipline of his own brother, Mr William Blair, who was afterwards minister at Dumbarton, he engaged for some time to be an assistant to an aged schoolmaster at Glasgow, who had above 300 scholars under his instruction, the half of whom were committed to the charge of Mr Blair. At this time he was called, by the ministry of the famous Mr Boyd of Trochrig, then principal of the College of Glasgow; into whose hand, as he himself observes in his Memoirs, the Lord did put the key of his heart so, that whenever he heard him in public or private, he profited much; Mr Boyd being, as it were, sent to him from God, to speak the words of eternal life.

Two years after, he was admitted in the room of his brother, Mr William, to be regent in the College of Glasgow, though not without the opposition of Archbishop Law, who had promised that place to another. But neither the principal nor regents giving place to the Archbishop’s motion, Mr Blair was admitted. After his admission, his elder colleagues, perceiving what great skill and insight he had in Humanity, urged him to read the classical authors; whereupon he began and read Plautus. But the Lord, being displeased with that design, diverted him from it, by his meeting with Augustine’s Confessions, wherein he inveighs sharply against the education of youth in heathen writings. Upon this he betook himself to the reading of the Holy Scriptures, and the ancient fathers, especially Augustine, who had another relish; and though he perceived that our divines were more sound than several of the ancients, yet, in his spare hours, he was wont to peruse the ancient authors, wherein he made considerable progress.

In summer 1616, he entered on trials for the ministry; and it was laid upon him to preach in the College Kirk the first Sabbath after his license. Some years after, he was told by some of his hearers (who were better acquainted with religion than he was then) that in his sermon the Lord did speak to their hearts; which not only surprised him, but also stirred him to follow after the Lord.

Upon an evening the same year, having been engaged with some irreligious company, when he returned to his chamber to his wonted devotion, he was threatened to be deserted of God. He had a restless night, and on the morrow resolved on a day of fasting, humiliation, and prayer. Towards the end of that day, he found access to God with sweet peace, through Jesus Christ, and turned to beware of such company; but running into another extreme of rudeness and incivility to profane persons, he found it was very hard for shortsighted sinners to hold the right and the straight way.

While he was regent in the college, upon a report that some sinful oath was to be imposed upon the masters, he inquired at Mr Gavin Forsyth, one of his fellow-regents, what he would do in this? He answered, "By my faith, I must live!" Blair said, "Sir, I will not swear by my faith, as you do, but truly I intend to live by my faith; you may choose your own way, but I will adventure on the Lord." And so this man, to whom the matter of an oath was a small thing, did continue, after he was gone; but it is to be noticed, that he was many years in such poverty, as forced him to supplicate the General Assembly for some relief. Robert Blair (who was then moderator) upon his appearing in such a desperate case, could not shun observing that former passage of his, and upon meeting him in private, with great tenderness put him in mind, that he had been truly carried through by his faith, at which he had formerly scoffed.

Some time after Robert Blair was a regent in the college, he was under deep exercises of soul, wherein he attained unto much comfort. Among other things, that great saying, "the just shall live by faith," sounded loudly in his ears, which put him on a new search of the Scriptures, in which he went on till Mr Culverwell’s Treatise on Faith came out; which being of the same nature with what is since published by the Westminster Assembly, he was thereby much satisfied and comforted. "By this study of the nature of faith," says he, "and especially of the text before mentioned, I learned –

First, That nominal Christians, or common professors, were much deluded in their way of believing; and that not only Papists – who place faith in an implicit assent to the truth which they know not, and that it’s better defined by ignorance than by knowledge, (a way of believing very suitable to Antichrist’s slaves, who are led by the noses they know not which way), ‘were hugely herein mistaken,’ – but also secure Protestants, abusing the description of old given of faith, that it is an assurance or assured knowledge, of the love of God in Christ. This assurance, indeed, no doubt is attainable, and many believers do attain and comfortably enjoy it, as our divines from the Holy Scriptures prove unanswerably against the Popish doctors, who maintain the necessity of perpetual doubting, and miscall that Christian comfortable assurance of the Protestants’ presumption. But notwithstanding it is true of a high degree of faith, yet it agrees not to all the degrees of saving faith; so that hereby many gracious sound believers, who have received Jesus Christ, and rested on Him as He is offered to them in the Word, have been much puzzled, as if they were not believers at all. But, upon the other hand, many secure, unhumbled misbelievers, who have not believed in the Lord’s holiness and hating of sin, who have not believed how self-destroyed they are, out of self-love, without the warrant of the Word, conceit themselves to be beloved of God; and that the formerly mentioned description of faith agrees well to them.

Secondly, I perceived that many who make right use of faith in order to their justification, made not directly use thereof in order to sanctification. But then I perceived that the living of the just by faith reached further than I formerly conceived, and that the heart is purified by faith. If any think, What! knew I not till then that precious faith, being a grace, was not only a part of our holiness, but did set forward other parts of holiness? I answer, I did indeed know, and so accordingly made use of faith as a motive to stir up to holiness, according to the apostle’s exhortation: ‘Having, therefore, these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of the Lord’ (2 Cor. 7:1). But I had not, before that, learned to make use of faith as a mean and instrument to draw holiness out of Christ, the well of salvation, though it may be I had both heard that and spoken that by way of a transient notion; but then, I learned to purpose that they who receive forgiveness of sins are sanctified through faith in Christ, as our glorious Saviour taught Paul (Acts 26:18). Then I marvelled not that my progress met with an obstruction for not making use of faith, as hath been said, for sanctification. Then I perceived, that in making use of Christ for sanctification, without direct employing of faith to extract the same out of Him, I was like one seeking water out of a deep well, without a long cord to let down the bucket and draw it up again…. Then was I like one that came to the storehouse, but got my provisions reached to me as it were by a window. I had come to the right house, but not to the right door. But by this ‘new’ discovery I did find a patent door made for provision and furniture in and from Christ my Lord. So, blessed Lord, thou trainedst on thy poor servant, step by step, suffering difficulties to arise, that greater clearing from thyself might flow in.

I hoped then to make better progress with less stumbling; but not long after, encountering difficulties, I wondered what discovery would next clear the way. Then I found that the Spirit of holiness, whose immediate and appropriate work was to sanctify, had been slighted, and so grieved. For though the Holy Spirit had been teaching, and I had been speaking of Him and to Him frequently, and seeking the pouring out of the same, and urging others to seek the same, yet that discovery appeared to me a new practical lesson; and so I laboured more to crave, cherish, and not grieve or quench the Holy Spirit, praying to be led into all truth, according to the Scriptures, by that blessed guide; and that by that heavenly Comforter, I might be comforted in all troubles, and sealed up thereby in strong assurance of my interest in God.

About that time the Lord set me a work to stir up the students who were under my discipline earnestly to study piety, and to be diligent in secret seeking of the Lord; and my gracious Lord was pleased herein to bless my endeavours."

Dr John Cameron being brought from France, and settled principal of the college in Mr Boyd’s place, and being wholly set on in promoting the cause of Episcopacy, urged Robert Blair to conform to the Perth Articles, but he utterly refused. And it being a thing usual in these days for the regents to meet to dispute some thesis, for their better improvement, Blair had the advantage of his opponent, who was a French student, and maintained that election did proceed upon foreseen faith. But the Doctor having stated himself in opposition to Blair, in a way which tended to Arminianism, and Blair being urged to a second dispute by the Doctor himself, he did drive him to the mire of Arminianism, so as did redound much to the Doctor’s ignominy afterwards; and although he and Mr Blair were afterwards reconciled, yet, being nettled by that dispute, he improved all occasions against him.

For that purpose, when Blair was on a visit to some of his godly friends and acquaintances, he caused one Gardner to search his Prelections on Aristotle’s Ethics and Politics, who, finding some things capable of being wrested, brought them to the Doctor, who presented them to the Archbishop of Glasgow. This coming to Mr Blair’s ears, he was so far from betraying innocence, being assured the Lord would clear his integrity, that he prepared a written apology, and desired a public hearing before the ministers and magistrates of the city; which being granted, he managed the point so properly, that all present professed their entire satisfaction with him; yea, one of the ministers of the city, who had been influenced against him formerly, said, in the face of that meeting, "Would to God King James had been present and heard what answers that man hath given."

Such a powerful antagonist, however, rendered his life so uneasy, that he resolved to leave the college and go abroad; which resolution no sooner took air than the Doctor and the Archbishop, knowing his abilities, wrote letters to cause him stay. But he, finding that little trust was to be put in their fair promises, and being weary of teaching philosophy, demitted his charge, took his leave of the Doctor, wishing him well, although he was the cause of his going away, and left the college, to the great grief of his fellow-regents and students, and the people of Glasgow.

Though he had several charges in Scotland presented to him, and an invitation to go to France, yet, the day after he left Glasgow, being invited to go and be minister of Bangor, in the county of Down, in Ireland, he felt bound in spirit to set his face towards a voyage to that country. Although he met with a contrary wind, he had such recourse to God, upon the very first sight of that land, that he was made to exult with joy; and on coming near Bangor, he had a strong impression borne in upon him, that the dean thereof was sick. This he found to be true when he came thither; and being invited to preach there, he did so for three Sabbaths, to the good liking of the people of that parish. The dean, though formerly but a very naughty man, yet told Mr Blair that he was to succeed him in that place; and exhorted him, in the name of Christ, not to leave that good way wherein he had begun to walk, professing much sorrow that he had done so himself. He condemned Episcopacy more strongly than ever Mr Blair durst; and drawing his head towards his bosom, with both his arms, he blessed him; which conduct being so unlike himself, as also his speaking in a strain so different from his usual, made a gentlewoman standing by say, "An angel is speaking out of the dean’s bed to Mr Blair," thinking it could not be such a man. Within a few days he died, and Robert Blair was settled minister there.

His ordination was on this manner. He went to Bishop Knox, and told him his opinions; and said, that a bishop’s sole ordination did contradict his principles. But the Bishop being informed beforehand of his great parts and piety, answered him both wittily and submissively, saying, "Whatever you account of Episcopacy, yet I know you account Presbytery to have a Divine warrant. Will you not receive ordination from Mr Cunningham and the adjacent brethren, and let me come in among them in no other relation than a Presbyter?" for on no lower terms could he be answerable to law. This Mr Blair could not refuse. He was accordingly ordained about the year 1623.

Being thus settled, his charge was very great, having above 1200 persons come to age, besides children, who stood greatly in need of instruction; and in this case he preached twice a week, besides the Lord’s-day; on all which occasions, he found little difficulty either as to matter or method. He became the chief instrument of that great work which appeared shortly thereafter, at Six-mile Water, and other parts in the counties of Down and Antrim; and that not only by his own ministry, wherein he was both diligent and faithful, but also in the great pains he took to stir up others unto the like duty.

While he was at Bangor, there was a man named Constable in the parish, who went to Scotland with horses to sell, and at a fair sold them all to a person who pretended he had not money at present, but gave him a bond till Martinmas. The poor man suspecting nothing, returned home; and one night about that time, going homeward, near Bangor, his merchant (who was supposed to be the devil) met him: "Now (says he), you know my bargain, how I bought you at such a place, and now I am come, as I promised, to pay the price." "Bought me!" said the poor man trembling, "you bought but my horses." "Nay," said the devil, "I will let you know I bought yourself;" and further said, that he must kill somebody, and the more excellent the person, the better it would be for him; and particularly charged him to kill Mr Blair, else he would not free him. The man was so overcome with terror, through the violence of the temptation, that he determined the thing, and went to Mr Blair’s house, with a dagger in his right hand, under his cloak; and though much confounded, was moving to get it out. But on Mr Blair speaking to him, he fell a trembling, and on inquiry declared the whole fact; and withal said, he had laboured to draw out the dagger, but it would not come from the scabbard, though he knew not what hindered it; for when he essayed to draw it forth again, it came out with ease. Mr Blair blessed the Lord, and exhorted him to choose him for his refuge, after which he departed.

Two weeks afterwards, being confined to his bed, Constable sent for Mr Blair, and told him, that the night before, as he was returning home, the devil appeared to him, and challenged him for opening to Mr Blair what passed betwixt them, claiming him as his; and putting the cap off his head, and the band from his neck, said, that on Hallow Evening he should have him soul and body, in spite of the minister and all others. He therefore begged Mr Blair, for Christ’s sake, to be with him against that time. Mr Blair instructed him, prayed with him, and promised to be with him against the appointed time. Afterwards he had much hesitation in his own mind, whether to keep that appointment or not; yet, at last, he took one of his elders with him, and went according to promise, and spent the whole night in prayer, explaining the doctrine of Christ’s temptation, and praising with short intermissions. In the morning they took courage, defying Satan and all his devices. The man seemed very penitent, and died in a little after.

It was during the first year of his ministry, that he resolved not to go through a whole book or chapter of the Bible, but to make choice of some passages which held forth important heads of religion, and to close the course with one sermon of heaven’s glory, and another of hell’s torments; but when he came to meditate on these subjects, he was held a whole day in great perplexity, and could fix upon neither method nor matter till night, when, after sorrowing for his disorder, the Lord, in great pity, brought both matter and method into his mind, which remained with him until he got the same delivered.

About this time he met with a most notable deliverance: for, staying in a high house at the end of the town until the manse should be built, and being late at his studies, the candle was burned out, and having called for another, as the landlady brought it from a room under which he lay, she saw to her astonishment, that a joist under his bed had taken fire. The consequence of this, had he been in bed as usual, in all probability had been dreadful to the whole town, as well as to him, the wind being strong: but, by the timeous alarm given, the danger was prevented, which made him give thanks to God for this great deliverance.

When he first celebrated the Lord’s Supper, his heart was much lifted up in speaking of the New Covenant, which made him, under the view of a second administration of the ordinance, resolve to go back unto that inexhaustible fountain of consolation; and coming over to Scotland about that time, he received no small assistance from David Dickson, who was then restored unto his flock at Irvine, and was studying and preaching on the same subject.

But it was not many years that he could have liberty in the exercise of his office; for, in harvest of 1631, he and John Livingstone were, by Ecklim, Bishop of Down, suspended from their office. Upon recourse to Archbishop Usher, who sent a letter to the Bishop, their sentence was relaxed, and they went on in their ministry until May 1632, when they were, by the said Bishop, deposed from the office of the holy ministry.

After this no redress could be had; whereupon Mr Blair resolved on a journey to Court, to represent their petitions and grievances to King Charles I. On his arrival at London, he could have no access for some time to his Majesty, and so laboured under many difficulties with little hopes of redress; until one day, having gone to Greenwich Park, where, being wearied with waiting on the Court, and while at prayer, the Lord assured him that he would hunt the violent man to destroy him. And while thus in earnest with the Lord for a favourable return, he adventured to propose a sign, that, if the Lord would make the reeds growing hard by (which were moved with the wind, as he was tossed in mind), to cease from shaking, he would take it as an assurance of the despatch of his business. To this the Lord condescended; for, in a little time it became so calm, that not one of them moved; and in a short time he got a despatch to his mind, wherein the King did not only sign his petition, but, with his own hand, wrote on the margin (directed to the depute), "Indulge these men, for they are Scotsmen."

It was while in England that he had, from Ezekiel 24:16, a strange discovery of his wife’s death, and the very bed whereon she was lying, and the particular acquaintances attending her; and although she was in good health at his return home, yet in a little all this exactly came to pass.

After Blair’s return, the King’s letter being slighted by the depute, who was newly returned from England, he was forced to have recourse to Archbishop Usher, who wept that he could not help them. By the interposition of Lord Castlestuart with the King, they got six months’ liberty. But upon the back of this, in November 1634, he was again summoned before the Bishop, and the sentence of excommunication pronounced against him by Ecklim, Bishop of Down. After the sentence was pronounced, Mr Blair rose up and publicly cited the Bishop to appear before the tribunal of Jesus Christ, to answer for that wicked deed. Whereupon he did appeal from the justice of God to his mercy; but Mr Blair replied: "Your appeal is like to be rejected, because you act against the light of your own conscience." In a few months after, the Bishop fell sick; and the physician inquiring of his sickness, after some time’s silence, he, with great difficulty, said: "It is my conscience, man." To which the doctor replied: "I have no cure for that;" and in a little after he died.

After Mr Blair’s ejection, he preached often in his own, and in other houses, until the beginning of the year 1635, when he began to think of marriage with Catherine Montgomery, daughter to Hugh Montgomery, formerly of Busby in Ayrshire (then residing in Ireland). For this he came over to Scotland with his own and his wife’s friends, and upon his return to Ireland, they were married in the month of May following.

Matters still continuing the same, he engaged with the rest of the ejected ministers in their resolution of building a ship, called the "Eaglewings," of about 115 tons, on purpose to go to New England. But about 300 or 400 leagues from Ireland, meeting with a terrible hurricane, they were forced back unto Carrickfergus, the same harbour from which they loosed; the Lord having work for them elsewhere, it was fit their purpose should be defeated. He continued four months after this in Ireland, until, upon information that he and Mr Livingstone were to be apprehended, they immediately went out of the way, took shipping, and landed in Scotland in the year 1637.

All that summer after Mr Blair’s arrival, he was as much employed in public and private exercises as before, mostly at Irvine and the country around, and partly at Edinburgh. But things being then in a confusion, because the service-book was then urged upon the ministers, his old inclination to go to France revived; and upon an invitation to be chaplain of Colonel Hepburn’s regiment (newly enlisted in Scotland for the French service), he embarked with them at Leith. Some of these recruits, who were mostly Highlanders, being desperately wicked, and threatening upon his reproofs to stab him, he resolved to quit that voyage. Calling to the shipmaster to set him on shore, without imparting his design, a boat was immediately ordered for his service; at which time he met with another deliverance, for, his foot sliding, he was in danger of going to the bottom; but the Lord so ordered, that he got hold of a rope, by which he hung till he was relieved.

Robert Blair’s return gave great satisfaction to his friends at Edinburgh, and the Second Reformation being then in the ascendant, he got a call to be colleague to Mr Annan, at Ayr, in the spring of 1638; and upon May 2, at a meeting of the Presbytery, having preached from 2 Cor. 4:5, he was, at the special desire of all the people thereof, admitted a minister. He stayed not long here; for having, before the General Assembly held at Glasgow in 1638, fully vindicated himself, both anent his affair with Dr Cameron while regent in the University, and his settlement in Ireland, he was, for his great parts and known abilities, ordered to be translated to St Andrews. But the Assembly’s motives in this did prove his detriment for some time, and the burgh of Ayr, where the Lord had begun to bless his labours, had the favour for another year. But the Assembly held at Edinburgh, 1639, being offended at his disobeying, ordered him peremptorily to remove to St Andrews.

In the year 1640, when King Charles I., by the advice of the clergy, had caused burn the articles of the former treaty with the Scots, and again prepared to chastise them with a royal army, the Scots, resolving not always to play after-game, also raised an army, invaded England, routed about 4000 English at Newburn, had Newcastle surrendered to them, and within two days were masters of Durham. This produced a new treaty, more favourable to them than the former. With this army was Mr Blair, who went with Lord Lindsay’s regiment; and when the treaty was on foot, the Committee of Estates and the army sent him up to assist the commissioners with his best advice.

Again, after the rebellion in Ireland, 1641, those who survived the storm supplicated the General Assembly, in the year 1642, for a supply of ministers, when several went over, and among the first Mr Blair. During his stay there, he generally preached once every day, and twice on Sabbath, and frequently in the field, the auditories being so large; and in some of these he also administered the Lord’s Supper.

After his return the condition of the Church and State was various during the years 1643 and 1644. In August 1643, the Committee of the General Assembly, whereof Mr Blair was one, with John, Earl of Rutland, and other four Commissioners from the Parliament of England, and Messrs Stephen Marshall, and Philip Nye, ministers, agreed to a solemn league and covenant betwixt the two kingdoms of Scotland and England. And in the end of the same year, when the Scots assisted the English Parliament, Mr Blair was by the Commission of the General Assembly appointed minister to the Earl of Crawford’s regiment; with which he stayed until the King was routed at Marston Moor, July 1644, when he returned to his charge at St Andrews.

The Parliament and Commission of the Kirk sat at Perth in July 1645. The Parliament was opened with a sermon by Robert Blair; and, after he had, upon the forenoon of the 27th (a day of solemn humiliation), preached again to the Parliament, he rode out to the army, then encamped at Forgandenny, and preached to Crawford’s and Maitland’s regiments, to the first of which he had been chaplain. He told the brigade that he was informed many of them were turned dissolute and profane; and assured them, that though the Lord had covered their heads in the day of battle (few of them being killed at Marston Moor), they should not be able to stand before a less formidable foe, unless they repented. Though this freedom was taken in good part from one who wished them well, yet was it too little laid to heart; and the most part of Crawford’s regiment was cut off at Kilsyth, in three weeks afterwards. After the defeat at Kilsyth, several were for treating with the Marquis of Montrose, but Mr Blair opposed it; so that nothing was concluded until the Lord began to look upon the affliction of His people. For the Committee of Estates recalled General David Leslie, with 4000 foot and 1000 dragoons, from England; to oppose whom, Montrose marched southward, but was shamefully defeated at Philiphaugh, September 13, many of his forces being killed and taken prisoners, and he himself hardly escaping.

On the 26th, the Parliament and Commission of the General Assembly sat down at St Andrews (the plague being then in Edinburgh). Here Mr Blair preached before the Parliament, and also prayed before several sessions thereof; and when several prisoners, taken at Philiphaugh, were tried; and three of them, viz., Sir Robert Spottiswoode, Messrs Nathaniel Gordon and Andrew Guthrie, were condemned to be executed on the 17th of January thereafter: Mr Blair visited them often, and was at much pains with t

The 5th july 1650 was a notable day as King Charles 11 visited the "Merchant's House" to pay his respects to the Rev. & Mrs Blair. On being offered a chair by Mrs Blair the minister was stated as saying "Do not trouble yourself he is a young man he can draw one for himself". The "Merchant's House" has always been known for it`s superb hospitality and to this day it is our aim to maintain and enhance the experience. It is reputed that the Rev Blair still walks the streets of St. Andrews.

Notes for Richard Blood:

[Master Tree.FTW]

Richard BLOOD was born in Ruddington, Nottingham, England in 1617. He is found in New England in 1642 when his wife Isabel, is named in the will of Henry WILKINSON. Isabel is listed as a cousin of Henry. "Story of the Bloods", by Roger Deane Harris, page 164-165 , "Geneology Dictionary of the First Families of New England" by James Savage", page 208 and "Geneological Gleanings in England" by Waters, page not given.

According to the Archives of the Salt Lake City Library, Richard married Isabel/Isobel 25 November 1642, place not given. Another sources states that Richard and Isobel were married in 1642 in Groton, Massachusetts. They had a daughter in June of 1648, born in Lynn, Massachusetts. (Salt Lake City Library-Archives) "New England Marriages Prior to 1700" by Clarence Almon Torrey and (Vital Records of Births in Lynn, Massachusetts), page 54.

Richard and Isabel lived in Lynn, Massachusetts until about 1657. He probably worked at the first iron foundery in the colonies. He also served as a Constable of Lynn in 1657. "Story of the Bloods" by Roger Deane Harris, page 6.

After moving to Groton, Richard was chief of the original proprietors and was granted sixty acres of land. The other land grants were for twenty or fifty acres. Richard was one of the signers of the petition to have Groton become a town. "Bicentennial for Silas Blood 1775-1976" by Marion B. Lawrence, page 43.

In 1668, Richard BLOOD and several others, were chosen as overseers of the highways. He was also Town Clerk and sat on the Board of Selectmen in 1669. In some of the records, Richard's surname is spelled as BLUD and as BLOUD "Early Records of Groton, Massachusetts" by Samuel A. Green, page 24-25 & 57 and (Groton Vital Records) page 204.

War broke out with the Indians and in 1675, during King Phillips War, the town of Groton was attacked. Richard and his family, along with many others inhabitants, fled to Concord, Massachusetts and stayed there until the fighting was over. Groton was resettled by 1678 and Richard returned with the others. There were many clashes with the Indians and James BLOOD, Richard's son was killed at Groton 13 September 1692. Three of Richard's grandchildren were captured by the Indians on 20 June 1707 and taken to Canada. Sarah TARBELL was placed in a Convent. Her brothers, John and Zechariah became Chiefs of the Coughnawaga Tribe. They were among the founders of St. Regis and in 1883 still had descendants living there. "Groton During the Indian Wars 1655-1790" by Samuel A. Green, page 106 & 124, and "Memorials of the Descendants of William Shattuck" by Lemuel Shadduck, page 369.

Richard passed away 7 December 1683 in Groton, Massachusetts. He had deeded land to his sons shortly before his death. Administration of his estate was granted to his widow and his three sons, James, Joseph, and Nathaniel on 1 April 1684. His widow, Isabel gave bond on 8 July 1684 with Joseph PARKER and Zachariah FERRIS as surities. She had moved in with her daughter, Hannah and Hannah's husband, Joseph Parker, Jr. in Groton after Richard's death. It is not known when Isabel died. Her son-in-law, Joseph PARKER, petitioned to sell her land in 1705. "Story of the Bloods" by Roger Deane Harris, pages 164-166 and (Court Records of Middlesex County, Quarterly Court)

Some researchers have Richard BLOOD listed as a brother of Robert BLOOD with their Father being James BLOOD. James was born about 1600 and would have only been seventeen years old and unmarried when Richard was born in 1617. James was married in St. Peter's Church in the city of Nottingham on 7 February 1630/31 to Ellen HARRISON. Richard and Robert lived in the same area and may have been brothers or cousins. "Story of the Bloods" by Roger Deane Harris, page 1.

Richard and Isabel had seven known children and their descendants are scattered from Massachusetts to California and from Canada to Florida. I'm pleased to know that I descend from people who had the imagination and fortitude to leave the security of their homeland and take a chance on finding a better life.

According to the Archives of the Salt Lake City Library, Richard married Isabel/Isobel 25 November 1642, place not given. Another sources states that Richard and Isobel were married in 1642 in Groton, Massachusetts. They had a daughter in June of 1648, born in Lynn, Massachusetts. (Salt Lake City Library-Archives) "New England Marriages Prior to 1700" by Clarence Almon Torrey and (Vital Records of Births in Lynn, Massachusetts), page 54.

Richard and Isabel lived in Lynn, Massachusetts until about 1657. He probably worked at the first iron foundery in the colonies. He also served as a Constable of Lynn in 1657. "Story of the Bloods" by Roger Deane Harris, page 6.

After moving to Groton, Richard was chief of the original proprietors and was granted sixty acres of land. The other land grants were for twenty or fifty acres. Richard was one of the signers of the petition to have Groton become a town. "Bicentennial for Silas Blood 1775-1976" by Marion B. Lawrence, page 43.

In 1668, Richard BLOOD and several others, were chosen as overseers of the highways. He was also Town Clerk and sat on the Board of Selectmen in 1669. In some of the records, Richard's surname is spelled as BLUD and as BLOUD "Early Records of Groton, Massachusetts" by Samuel A. Green, page 24-25 & 57 and (Groton Vital Records) page 204.

War broke out with the Indians and in 1675, during King Phillips War, the town of Groton was attacked. Richard and his family, along with many others inhabitants, fled to Concord, Massachusetts and stayed there until the fighting was over. Groton was resettled by 1678 and Richard returned with the others. There were many clashes with the Indians and James BLOOD, Richard's son was killed at Groton 13 September 1692. Three of Richard's grandchildren were captured by the Indians on 20 June 1707 and taken to Canada. Sarah TARBELL was placed in a Convent. Her brothers, John and Zechariah became Chiefs of the Coughnawaga Tribe. They were among the founders of St. Regis and in 1883 still had descendants living there. "Groton During the Indian Wars 1655-1790" by Samuel A. Green, page 106 & 124, and "Memorials of the Descendants of William Shattuck" by Lemuel Shadduck, page 369.

Richard passed away 7 December 1683 in Groton, Massachusetts. He had deeded land to his sons shortly before his death. Administration of his estate was granted to his widow and his three sons, James, Joseph, and Nathaniel on 1 April 1684. His widow, Isabel gave bond on 8 July 1684 with Joseph PARKER and Zachariah FERRIS as surities. She had moved in with her daughter, Hannah and Hannah's husband, Joseph Parker, Jr. in Groton after Richard's death. It is not known when Isabel died. Her son-in-law, Joseph PARKER, petitioned to sell her land in 1705. "Story of the Bloods" by Roger Deane Harris, pages 164-166 and (Court Records of Middlesex County, Quarterly Court)

Some researchers have Richard BLOOD listed as a brother of Robert BLOOD with their Father being James BLOOD. James was born about 1600 and would have only been seventeen years old and unmarried when Richard was born in 1617. James was married in St. Peter's Church in the city of Nottingham on 7 February 1630/31 to Ellen HARRISON. Richard and Robert lived in the same area and may have been brothers or cousins. "Story of the Bloods" by Roger Deane Harris, page 1.

Richard and Isabel had seven known children and their descendants are scattered from Massachusetts to California and from Canada to Florida. I'm pleased to know that I descend from people who had the imagination and fortitude to leave the security of their homeland and take a chance on finding a better life.

Notes for Major Simon Willard:

[Master Tree.FTW]

Simon Willard, Major - Immigrated to America 1634 (29 y.o) - Founder of Concord 4/7/1605 - 5/5/1676 Born in Horsmonden, Kent, England, married Mary Sharp, Mary Dunster, and Elizabeth Dunster. He had 17 children Son of Richard and Margery Willard, colonist, fur trader. He was baptized at Horsemonden, Kent, England, on April 7, 1605. Emigrating to Massachusetts in 1634, he joined with Peter Bulkey and others to establish the town of Concord. From this time until his death, he was one of the leading men on the Merrimac frontier. At Concord he served as local magistrate and commanded the militia company. He represented Concord in the General Court off and on from 1643 to 1654 he was chosen assistant and served until his death. In 1653 he was made sergeant-major of the Middlesex regiment. His activities, both public and private, were closely associated with the Indian trade and the affairs of the frontier settlements. In 1641 he was appointed chief of a committee to carry on and regulate the fur trade, and in 1657 he and three associates farmed the trade of the Merrimac for 25 pounds. In 1646 and afterward he assisted John Eliot in his work among the Merrimac tribes. He was extensively employed by the General Court in Indian affairs, in locating and laying out land grants, in settling the bounds and regulating the affairs of the frontier towns. In 1659 he sold a large part of his Concord estate and removed to Lancaster, Massachusetts. About 1671 he went to live in the southern part of Groton, now Ayer. In 1654 he was appointed to command a punitive expedition against the Niantic sachem, Ninigret. On approach of the English, Ninigret fled into a swamp, and the expedition ended in a parley. Disappointed at the inconclusive outcome, the commissioners of the United Colonies reproved Willard for failure to carry out their instructions. At the outbreak of King Philip's War, in spite of his advanced age, he took charge of the defense of the Merrimac frontier. His most conspicuous service was the relief of Brookfield on August 4, 1675. Ordered thence to the Connecticut Valley, he soon returned to Groton to defend the frontier towns from Chelmsford to Lancaster against the Indians gathered at Mount Wachusett. His duties included the placing of garrisons, the patroling of the frontier with a party of dragoons, and the relief of threatened settlements. Called away from his duties as magistrate, he was absent when the Indians destroyed Groton in March 1676, but he arrived with a relieving force in time to assist in removing the inhabitants. His own house was destroyed and his family forced to remove to Charlestown, thereafter, further service on the frontier, he died, "a pious, orthodox man," according to John Hull (diary in ARCHAELOGIA AMERICANA: TRANS. AND COLLS. AM. ANTIQ. SOC., VOL III 1857, P. 241). He was married three times, first in England to Mary Sharpe, second to Elizabeth, the sister of Henry Dunster, and third to Mary Dunster, either his second wife's sister or cousin. He had seventeen children, of whom Samuel, 1639/40 - 1707, was the most distinghised. DICTIONARY OF AMERICAN BIOGRAPHY, p. 240

****************

The surname Willard has been a personal name since earliest times and was in use as a place name before the establishment of surnames in England, where many branches of the family bore an ancient

coat-of-arms previous to the sixteenth century.

Abigail married (second), February 12, 1678, John Kirby Jr. He [Zoeth] took the oath of 'fidelitie' at Duxbury in 1657, and became a convert to the Friends' [Quakers] sect about the same time, and meetings were held at his house, for which for which he was fined in December, 1657. In March, 1657-58, he was sentenced to 'sitt in the stockes for the space of an hour' for 'speaking opprobiously of the minnesters of Gods Word.' In March, 1659, his wife was fined ten shillings for not attending the meetings of the Puritans. He moved to Dartmouth, probably as early as 1662, for more congenial society. The Newport [RI] Friends' records and the inventory of his estate, dated June, 1677, refer to him as Zoeth of Dartmouth, and his mother owned a house there. Just where he was killed and how he came to be there is unknown. His sons, with the exception of Samuel, were active members of the old Apponegansett meeting.

Notes for Matthew Cushing:

Matthew Cushing, son of Peter Cushing married Nazareth Pitcher, daughter of Henry Pitcher, of the famous family of Admiral Pitcher of England. For the first fifty years of his life he lived in Hardingham and Hingham, Norfolk County, England, until 1638, when with his wife and five children, and his wife's sister (Widow Francis Riecroft, who died a few weeks after their arrival). He embarked in the ship "Diligent" of Ipswich, 350 tons, John Martin, master, which sailed from Gravesend, 26 April 1638, with 133 passengers, among whom was Robert Peck, M.A., Rector of the parish of Hingham, England. The immediate occasion of their departure seems to have been trouble in ecclesiastical matters. Their rector, doubtless with the sympathy and aid of most of those constituting the emigrating party, had pulled down the rails of chancel and altar, and leveled the latter a foot below the church, as it remains to this day. Being prosecuted by Bishop Wren, he left the Kingdom, together with his friends - who sold their estates at half their real value. The party, having landed at Boston Massachusetts, 10 August 1638, immediately proceeded to their destination, Hingham, Massachusetts, so named after the name of the former home of the Cushing family in England. At a town meeting held in 1638, a house lot of five acres, first below Pear Tree Hill, on Bachelor (Main) St., was given to Matthew Cushing, and it continued in the possession of the family until 1887. He was early engaged in the public affairs of the town, became a deacon in Rev. Hobart's church, and was the progenitor of many eminent descendants. It is now a pretty well established fact that, with the exception of a few families who have come to this country during the past century, all the persons bearing the surname of Cushing in the United States and Canada are his direct lineal descendants. His will, which was a verbal one, was written after his decease by his children, who, under date of 15 Nov., 1660, pray that Daniel Cushing, Esq., their oldest brother, may be appointed administrator of their father's estate. In his will all the children except Deborah, who married May 1648, Matthew Briggs, are named as living; and the share to his son-in-law was large.

Upon the lot now occupied by Dr. Robbins at the foot of Pear-tree Hill, a few rods north of his residence, Matthew Cushing, who died in 1660 at seventy-one years of age, the progenitor, probably, of all the families of that name in the United States, had established the home which remained uninterruptedly in the family until 1887; and here still lived his wife, who died subsequently to the war, aged ninety-six, his son Daniel, then and until his death town clerk, and one of the wealthy men of the period, and Matthew a grandson, afterwards lieutenant and captain. Not far away Matthew Cushing senior's daughter Deborah lived with her husband, Matthias Briggs, while on the opposite side of the street, at what is now the Keeshan place, Daniel the younger, a weaver by trade, established a home and reared a large family. The Cushings were shopkeepers in addition to their other occupations, and probably the little end shop built onto the dwelling on either side of the street contained articles of sale and barter,--produce and pelts and West India goods and ammunition. We may suppose that these small centres of trade, together with the tannery in the immediate vicinity, gave quite a little air of business to the neighborhood,--forming indeed the primitive exchange of the period.

Notes for John Howland:

John Howland was born in 1592 at Fen Stanton, Huntingdonshire, England. He was the son of Henry Howland. He came aboard the MAYFLOWER listed as a "servant" to John Carver. In midAtlantic, during a storm, Howland was swept overboard, but he caught a topsail halyard which hung over the side and was hauled back on board ship.

About 1624 John Howland married Elizabeth Tilley, also a MAYFLOWER passenger, who had lost her parents during the great sickness that befell the Pilgrims during their first winter at Plymouth.

Descent from John Howland has been proven through all ten of his children. He was one of the 41 signers of the Mayflower Compact.

John Howland was prominent in the public affairs of the Colony, serving several times as an Assistant Governor, and in 1634 was in command of the Pilgrims' trading post on the Kennebec River in Maine. He died on 24 February 1672/3. His will and inventory of estate are on record at Plymouth. His wife Elizabeth died on 21 December 1687 at Swansea.
