Descendants of Richard Osborne Third Generation (Grandchildren) 5. Thomas Osborne1 (Richard 2, Richard 1) was born on 18 Apr 1542 in Hartlip, Kent, England, 1 died on 12 Oct 1611 in Bur Ashford Kent 1 at age 69, and was buried in Ashley, Kent, England. 1 Ancestral File Number: 94KB-98. General Notes: The LDS Family History Library contains a text entitled "Thomas Osborne of Ashford, Kent, England, and some of his American Descendants" by Daniel J. Weeks. In a section entitled Ashford: Ancient Seat of the Osbornes, it say at the dawn of the Seventeenth Century, Ashford, England, in the county of Kent, was a small market town of about 1,000 people. It is here in the very early part of the Seventeenth Century that we first encounter the Osborne clan, whose progeny were to make their way across the Atlantic to America during the years of Puritan migration to the New World. Because it is situated a few miles from the sea between the channel ports of the east coast of Kent and the City of London, Ashford benefited from the number of travelers who passed through Kent on their way to London. Kent itself was one of the most populous and wealthy counties in England in these years. Its prosperity was largely based upon diversified agriculture. The county was the premier fruit growing area in England during the Seventeenth Century, though it was also noted for its livestock and brewing. In the early part of the century Ashford had become a center of Puritan activity, thanks in large part to the lectures of one "Master Urdnay," whom Archbishop William Laud suppressed. It is quite likely that the Puritan agitation had a strong influence on the Osbornes, or at least on Thomas Osborne, who came to New England about 1637 and settled in the Puritan enclave at New Haven. It should also be noted that the American settler of this particular line of the Osbornes was almost certainly a close relative of Thomas Osborne, the Earl of Danby and later Duke of Leeds, who became first minister to King Charles II. Danby's great-grandfather was Richard Osborne of Ashford. Rosa Lee Trupp's notes add: Note: Most of what we know of Thomas Osborn of Ashford is contained in his will, which he made 27 Feb 1606/7, and which was proved 16 Oct 1611. In this document, Thomas left 20 shillings to the poor of Ashford, and 10 shillings toward the maintenance of the preachers, "if they continue preaching at Ashford." He also bequeathed 10 shillings to Mr. Hawlden, the vicar of Selling. To his wife, Marie [Mary], he left 10 pounds and "all such wearing apparel as I have made for her since our marriage," some household goods, and "all wood work which I have made since our intermarriage." To Martha, "my wife's daughter," 20 shillings,and to Anna, "another of my wife's daughters," 5 shillings. Thomas left various goods and 10 pounds to his son Edward, and to Edmand Mellowe, son of Edward Mellowe, 20 shillings toward his apprenticeship. He also left 10 pounds to Nicholas Osborn's son Thomas. "Concerning my customary lands and tenements holden of the manor Ashfoorde whereof I have made surrender to the use of my last will according to the custom of the said manor, and all my other tenements and lands: to son Edwarde Osborne the copyhold purchased of John Adams sen. And the copyhold purchased of William Browne; to Jeremie Osborne my son the copyhold I purchased of Daniell Lowes alias Low and Martha his wife; to wife Mary during widowhood, the house I late purchased from Mr.Haulden, vicar of Sellindge, with the remainder to Jeremie Osborne. Executor and residuary legatee, son Jeremie Osborne. Overseers, Nicholas Sawkins and John Smarte to receive 12d apiece for their pains. Witnesses: John Walleis, vicar of Ashfoord; Jo: Stedde, John Terrie. Read and acknowledged to be the will of Thomas Osborne 28 Oct 1608 in the presence of John Walleis vicar of Ashfoord Robert Hunt." Most of what we know of Thomas Osborne of Ashford is contained in his will, which he made February 27, 1606/7, and which was proved October 16, 1611. In this document, Thomas left 20 shillings to the poor of Ashford, and 10 shillings toward the maintenance of the preachers, "if they continue preaching at Ashford." He also bequeathed 10 shillings to Mr. Hawlden, the vicar of Sellinge.

Descendants of Richard Osborne Fifth Generation (Great Great-Grandchildren) 14. Thomas Osborn1 (Jeremy (Hieremy) 4, Thomas 3, Richard 2, Richard 1) was born from about 1594 to 1595 in Ashford, Kent, England, Great Britain, 2 was christened from 4 Apr 1594 to 1595 in Ashford, Kent, England, Great Britain, 2 died from 1677 to 1686 in East Hampton, Suffolk, New York 2 about age 83, and was buried in 1688 in New Haven, New Haven, Connecticut. 2 Ancestral File Number: FZXG-MJ. General Notes: The Thomas Osborne text indicates that another Thomas Osborn, the son of John and Thomasin Osborne, was born at Ashford in 1595, and it is possible, but unlikely, that he, and not the son of Jeremy, was the American settler. But, as David Lines Jacobus has pointed out, circumstanial evidence favors Jeremy's son. For instance, he was known from Jeremy's to have been a tanner, and his second son was named Jeremiah, after his father. John's son named his fourth son Jeremiah. After 1636 the family disappears from the Ashford records. Richard Osborne in his 1646 will names his own children and those of his brother Joseph but makes no mention of Thomas or his children, probably because they had removed to America. Thomas and Richard Osborn arrived in Boston on June 26, 1637. They and the entire New Haven Colony stayed in Boston until the spring of 1638 when they continued on to the area where they Founded the town of New Haven, Connecticut. The entire trip is described in the book "The Colony of New Haven*" by Edward E. Atwater. The book describes life in England at the time, why they wanted to come to America, the trip aboard ship, and the way the land in New Haven was divided up. (* The text was digitized in 2001 and is now viewable at the following URL: http://invictus.quinnipiac.edu/colony.html - Page 136-7 says: According to the schedule of 1641, the proprietors of the south-west square were, at that time, William Fowler, Peter Prudden, James Prudden, Edmond Tapp, Widow Baldwin, An Elder, Richard Platt, Zachariah Whitman, and Thomas Osborne. The town records show that the lot reserved for an elder had been originally assigned to Timothy Baldwin, who, removing to Milford, sold his allotment to the town. As no land within this square has been traced to Thomas Osborne, it may be inferred that he sold to Mr. Fowler at an early date, and before a record of alienation was required. Mr. Osborne owned and occupied a house and tanyard on the south side of George Street, between Broad and Factory Streets, doubtless preferring this location to his original allotment because of the facilities it afforded for his vocation as a tanner. He afterward became one of the first planters of Easthampton on Long Island; but this property, being given to one of his sons, remained in the name of Osborne far into the nineteenth century. With the exception of Osborne, the original grantees of this square removed to Milford. As they had all emigrated from Herefordshire, or its vicinity, the square was for some years designated as the Herefordshire quarter.) History of New Haven County edited by J. L. Rockey, 1892, page 7-9 tells that the party of fifty men and another 200 women and children were part of the company of the Reverend John Davenport arriving on the Hector and her consort. The company was composed of men of wealth, education and influence. Almost immediately upon arrival there was civil and religious conflict with the current residents of Massachusetts. In the spring of 1638 the company moved on to settle the Colony of New Haven. History of New Haven Colony, Edward R. Lambert, 1838, page 54 indicates that Planter Thomas Osborne was responsible for six persons and had an estate valued at 300 pounds. Richard Osborne was responsible for three persons and had an estate valued at 10 pounds. East Hampton History Including Genealogies of Early Families, by Jeannette Edwards Rattray, 1953, contains detailed genealogies of our Osborn family and many of the collateral lines. However, before I cover the genealogies, there is a section in the book entitled, Where They Came From, and Why. Here are some excerpts from that section: Most of East Hampton's first settlers had been in America for ten, fifteen, or even twenty years before coming here. None, as far as we know, had been passengers of the Mayflower although some married into Mayflower families. They crossed the Atlantic, most of them , in the great Puritan migration from 13

Descendants of Richard Osborne England that followed the granting of a charter to the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1629. Some of our 17th century forefathers were born into the gentry, some were ministers or merchants, others tenant-farmers or servants. But most were sturdy yeomen who came from the rich agriculture district in and around Maidstone in Kent and so, in the early years, they called the new settlement "Maidstone." It was said that serfdom was almost unknown in Kent; that to say your father was born in Kent meant that you were free-born. A Man of Kent was an honorable appellation. In the very early 17th century, King James began to exert the theory of Devine Right of Kings which became increasingly hard to swallow. Then the Thirty Years' War in Germany created a slump in English trade, there was a depression which made the prospect of new lands still more attractive. The depression lasted through King James' death in 1625, into the reign of Charles I and into the civil war of 1641. When King Charles surrendered to the Puritans in 1646 the Devine Right of Kings idea exploded. King Charles lost his head in 1649, just as East Hampton pioneers were drawing lots for Main Street homesteads. Thomas Osborne and his son Thomas were not among the original nine settlers of East Hampton but became their very early associates, possibly still in 1649. The old Osborn family is listed as an early builder of a house on Main Street in 1680. The introduction of the Osborn genealogy is now quoted: OSBORN OR OSBORNE THIS NAME, variously spelled, has existed more than a thousand years. In ancient Saxon England it was sometimes spelled Osbjorn; the wife of King Egbert was an Osborne. Egbert of the house of Cedric, King of Wessex, united the seven Saxon kingdoms of Britain into one kingdom under the name of England in 827, A.D. Earliest record of the Osborn family appears in the will of Harjanna and Julian Osborn of Kent, bearing date of 1404. The family lived in and around Maidstone then, and is still represented there. The first Osborn in East Hampton was Thomas of Ashford in Kent who owned land in Hingham, Mass. before 1635, moved to Windsor, Conn. by 1637, and was one of the early settlers of New Haven, Conn. in 1639. Thomas came to East Hampton in 1650 to 1651. His son John 2 was one of the first settlers of Wainscott, five miles west of East Hampton village, and in the township. East Hampton was first named Maidstone because so many of its first settlers had come from that vicinity; and Wainscott was doubtless named after a hamlet named Wainscot in England, near Rochester, and not very far from Maidstone. Mrs. George Odell (born Mary Osborn of Wainscott) visited the English Wainscot looking up her ancestors; and Ernest Clowes of Bridgehampton has located church records in that parish which give marriage of early 18th century Osbornes. Preparation of the following genealogy (which does not attempt to carry the family far out of East Hampton Township) would have been impossible without data furnished by Osborn Shaw of Bellport, L.I., Brookhaven Town Historian and himself a descendant of East Hampton Osbornes; by William E. Osborn of Mt. Vernon, N.Y.; by Raymond H. Osborn, Mrs. Ralph Frazee, Mrs. Amy Osborn Bassford, Nelson C. Osborne, Mrs. Alice Dayton LaPointe, also Dr. Frederick A. Finch's notes and Judge Hedges' genealogies have given some basic information. Miss Minnie L. Hunting, who with her brother Daniel Osborn Huntting occupies one of the few East Hampton homesteads which have never passed out of the family, has prepared the whole of one section: "Descendants of Daniel Osborn 3." Early American Osborns were tanners; Thomas 1, trained in that trade by his father in England, was given liberty to cut trees on the common in New Haven for his tanning. In 1660 Thomas 1 deeded to his son Jeremiah his house and tanyard in New Haven. Deacon Abraham Osborn 6 (1776 - 1855) grandfather of the late Burnett Mulford Osborne who lived on the property now that of Maidstone Arms, said that Thomas 1 and 2, Joseph 3 and his three sons Joseph 4, Jeremiah 4, and Thomas 4, Lewis 5 and Abraham 6, all tanners, worked for six generations at that trade on the hill where he resided; also for generations the family and descendants of Daniel 3 and his son Deacon Daniel 4 so wrought. 14

Descendants of Richard Osborne A beautifully carved chest, said to have been brought from England by the first Thomas Osborne, was given to the John Howard Payne memorial house "Home, Sweet Home," by the late B. M. Osborne. It is interesting to note that Thomas and John Osborn were promoters for East Hampton of an agreement between the offshore whaling companies of East Hampton and Southampton, in January 1667. Descendants of John 2, John M. and Oliver S. Osborn of Wainscott, were among the last of the offshore whalemen here - Oliver S. Osborn headed the crew that captured the last right whale off Wainscott in 1907. According to East Hampton History, 1953, page 490, Thomas 1 was baptized April 4, 1594/5 in Ashford, County Kent, England and died in either East Hampton or New Haven between 1677, when he made his will, and 1686, when his son Thomas is called Senior. He is thought to be the son of Jeremy and Joan Wybourne Osborne (due to cousins being named Thomas, there is some doubt) and is known to be the grandson of Thomas and Wilmeth Osborne. In 1897, Judge Henry P. Hedges wrote an earlier East Hampton History from which Ms. Rattray quotes frequently. Rather than copying the complete Osborn section, I will only include parts that are not in the 1953 version. THE OSBORN FAMILY Thomas Osborn, Sr., was father of Thomas, Jr. 2, John 2 and Benjamin 2, and conveyed to the latter in 1687 all his lands in East Hampton, see T. R. Vol. I, pp. 84, 300, 406. From Savage's Gen. Dictionary and otherwise we know that this Thomas 1 had in New Haven a son Jeremiah and other children, and a brother Richard, the tanner there. The tradition that he returned to New Haven and died there is consistent with the deed and all the known facts. The Thomas 2 dying in 1712 at age 90, was son of Thomas 1. The Joseph, Jr. 3 was son of Thomas 2 dying in 1743 at age 83, and by will proved Sept. 9, 1746, devised to his son Joseph 4 the old Deacon Osborn homestead, to his son Jeremiah 4 the house on the corner bought of Capt. Thos. Wheeler, and to his son Thomas 4, the Pudding Hill lot. Four generations of the family are traced and located on three homesteads, at so late a date and so clearly as to leave little if doubt so far. The same will names his brother Daniel 3. .... In Munsell's History of Suffolk County, the Osborn genealogy is erroneously traced from Robert and Elizabeth of Maidstone, Kent, Eng., to Thomas 2 who died at age 90 in 1712, to Daniel 3 d. Jan. 6, 1713 at age 48 yrs., Daniel 4 d. May 18, 1757, Jonathan 5 d. Nov. 1, 1781, Joseph 6 b. 1754, d. 1844, Joseph 7 b. 1789, d. 1872, Sylvanus M. 8. The partial genealogy of this family by Judge Thomas A. Osborn, late of Maybille, Chautauqua Co., N.Y., County Judge in 1843, Member of Assembly in 1868, contains the same mistake. Thomas 1 Sen. father of Thomas 2 Jr. who died in 1712 may have been son of that Robert and Elizabeth, but not of Thomas 2. The Town Record proves Thomas 2 son of Thomas 1. Deacon Abraham Osborn 6, son of Lewis 5, son of Joseph 4, son of Joseph 3, son of Thomas 2, son of Thomas 1 was a man of devout soul, good memory and good sense, versed in treasured traditionary lore. "And many names he would repeat, Whose pulses long have ceased to beat." He said that Thomas 1, Thomas 2, Joseph 3 and his three sons Joseph 4, Jeremiah 4, and Thomas 4, Lewis 5 and Abraham 6, all tanners, worked for six generations at that trade on the hill where he resided, now the residence of his grandsons William A. and Burnet M. Osborn. For generations the family and descendants of Daniel 3 and his son Deacon Daniel 4 so wrought. Judge Thomas A. relates that the family have tradition that they are of Norman origin, and came with William the Conqueror. He had an account of the family Coat of Arms which writing from memory, is not given. Believing that what we do and not what our ancestors have done will be our true measure I have made no inquiry in that direction. Dea. Joseph 4, grandfather of Dea. Abraham 6 was a man of strong convictions and in the Revolution a resolute patriot. During the Revolutionary war, on his way to church, he was ordered by a British officer to appear forthwith with his team and cart, at an appointed place to do service for the British army. The 15

Descendants of Richard Osborne Deacon inquired by what authority the officer commanded him and was answered "by the authority of the King." "What King do you serve?" asked the Deacon. The answer was "King George the Third." The Deacon replied "My King is greater than your King. I serve King Jesus. He commands me to go to meeting and I shall go." With this the old hero marched on to the church. To such a man titles and coats of arms are baubles. Having known the strong personality and power of Dea. Abraham, his grandson, I can better conceive the master manner of his grandsire. The source for all of Thomas's children is the LDS Ancestral File with corrections and additions made from East Hampton History, 1953. In preparing this compilation of descendants of Thomas Osborn, the immigrant, I have mostly limited the content to the direct ancestors of our Cornelius Osborn (1814 -1879). Exceptions to this are other descendants who settled in Rensselaer and Monroe Counties, New York where our Cornelius's immediate ancestors resided. For the interest of other researchers, I have photocopies of most of the Osborn sections of the East Hampton History, both the 1898 and 1953 versions. Here is a message I received after publishing the Osborn text: Thomas Osborn and his brother Richard [b. 1598] came to America in 1637 aboard the ship "Hector" which was commissioned by the New Haven Colony by a Mr. John Davenport and Mr. Theophilus Eaton. You will find Richard's name on the Passenger List on the Olive Tree Website (http://www.rootsweb.com/~ote/neship.htm#hector ) Thomas and Richard arrived in Boston on June 26, 1637. They and the entire New Haven Colony stayed in Boston until the spring of 1638 when they continued on to the area where they Founded the town of New Haven, Connecticut. The entire trip is described in the book "The Colony of New Haven" by Edward E. Atwater. The book describes life in England at the time, why they wanted to come to America, the trip aboard ship, and the way the land in New Haven was divided up. Thomas was still fathering children in Ashford, Kent, England in 1636, so he COULD NOT have been in "New England" in 1635 ! (Joseph Osborn [b.

Descendants of Richard Osborne Sixth Generation (3rd Great-Grandchildren) 22. Thomas Osborn1 (Thomas 5, Jeremy (Hieremy) 4, Thomas 3, Richard 2, Richard 1) was born on 6 Nov 1622 in Ashford, Kent, England, Great Britain, 1 was christened on 24 Nov 1622 in Christ Church, Ashford, Kent, England, 1 died on 23 Sep 1713 in East Hampton, Suffolk, New York 1 at age 90, and was buried in East Hampton, Suffolk, New York, , South End Cemetery.1 Ancestral File Number: 94K9-FS. General Notes: According to East Hampton History, 1953, he served the town in various civil offices. This text, p. 496 contains the following: Children of Thomas Osborn 2 who are not usually given in genealogies may have been Jonathan and Bezaleel. Osborn Shaw thinks so. At any rate, there were Osborns here bearing those names at dates when they could have been sons of Thomas 2; although Judge Henry P. Hedges was inclined to think they were together with another Joseph, sons of a wealthy Boston merchant, William Osborn. William Osborn 1 was in Salem 1630, in Dorchester 1639, at Harvard College 1661; he had a son Recompence born in Dorchester 1644, at Braintree, Mass. had Hannah born Aug. 24, 1646, Bezaleel May 8, 1650, and in Boston had Joseph born April 6, 1652 and Jonathan born Nov. 16, 1656. He died 1662. His widow married John Mulford of East Hampton. (Widow Friedeswiede Osborn). Recompence 2 graduated from Harvard and later taught school in New Haven, then went to East Hampton and after 1665 disappears, probably died here; Jonathan went to Cape May, N.J. where he and his brother Joseph owned a house together in 1690. Joseph is probably the "Joseph Sr." who died in 1741 in East Hampton aged about 90. As for Bezaleel, his "nuncupative" (oral) will recorded in the Suffolk County Clerk's office at Riverhead, L.I., gives these facts: His wife was Elizabeth Howell, sister of Arthur Howell of Southampton; he was brother of Joseph and Jonathan Osborn of East Hampton. He died at the home of his brother Joseph in East Hampton in 1686; the will mentions no children, although he may have had a daughter who married Ralph Dayton. East Hampton Town Records mention Bezaleel and his "share of whale," 1677. Brookhaven Town Records, under date Sept. 8, 1679, show that Bezaleel Osborn of East Hampton gives 50 acres of upland and 15 acres of meadow in Brookhaven to Ralph Dayton. The Daytons, Osborns, and Bakers all came from the same part of Kent. Tradition says that the grave of Bezaleel Osborn in South End Burying Ground, was marked by read cedar posts bearing the initials B.O. 1 Thomas married Elizabeth Rattray.2 General Notes: East Hampton History, 1953 indicates of this first marriage, only the birth of Thomas 3 is known; he is said to have died young. It is possible that Jonathan 3 and Bezaleel 3 are also from this marriage.1 Children from this marriage were: 31 M i. Thomas Osborn was born in Probably E.H., Suffolk, New York and died as an infant. 32 M

ii. Jonathan Osborn was born in Probably E.H., Suffolk, New York.

v. Jeremiah Osborne3 was born about 1661. General Notes: From: [email protected] Date: Fri, 6 Dec 2002 23:12:10 EST (Jim's sisters email) Greetings Cousins! I descend from Thomas via Stephen Osborne and Sarah Stansborough as follows: Jeremiah Osborne of Elizabethtown NJ & Morristown NJ; Jeremiah Osborn of Morristown NJ & South Branch of the South Fork of the Potomac River in Western Virginia (land surveyed by 16 year old George Washington in 1748); John Osborn & Elizabeth Claypool of Hampshire & Hardy County Virginia (now West Virginia); Elijah Osborn and Mary Warren of Casey County Kentucky; Levi Osborn & Mary Combest of Kentucky & Montgomery County Illinois and then 4 James or 5 including my son. ... I am trying to do what early Osborne researchers deemed improbable or impossible, eg. to extend the lines of as many of Thomas' children as possible. I have found that Stephen & Jeremiah. & Joseph left East Hampton to take part in the purchase of the Elizabethtown Grants from the Indians. It included about 5 of the current counties of New Jersey. The son of Jeremiah (grandson of Stephen) a child was present and able to testify to the purchase as an old man in 1741 in Cooper vs Crane in the New Jersey Court. His deposition gives a wealth of information. It should be noted that when his father left Elizabethtown and moved to Morristown he sold his land to Abraham Kitchell an ancestor of Barbara Bush the mother of President George W. Bush.

A "Mary Talmage" is mentioned in his will made April 26, 1739, proved 1746 as a wife of Joseph; in Sept. 1696 the "wife of Joseph" died; and Elizabeth, dau. of Joseph, m. Dec. 6, 1711, Thomas Baker Jr. By Mary Hedges, b. 1672, d. Aug. 2, 1752 he had children Joseph, Jeremiah, Mary, Danial Baker Jr.; Thomas. Joseph 3 like his father, held various Town offices. Rev. Nathaniel Hunting set down in the E.H. Church Records: "2 Oct. 1743, Joseph Osborn son of Thomas Osborn, Deceased, sunk down and died in ye meeting house just after morning prayer was begun abt a quarter after 10, aged almost 83 years, he never spoke a word but expired at once." Then on August 2, 1752: "Died ye Widow Osborn, aged 81 and mother of Jeremiah, Joseph, and Thomas Osborn. Six persons have died in less than Six Days. Never did East Hampton know the like. O that for holiness to yt there never were the like." Joseph 3 left to his son, Deacon Joseph 4, the homestead now Maidstone Arms property. The source of children Jeremiah, Mary, and Joseph is CD-ROM IGI from San Diego FHC on 25 Oct 90.1 Joseph married Mary Hedges, daughter of William Hedges and Hannah Stratton, on 26 Dec 1704 in East Hampton, Suffolk, New York.

Descendants of Richard Osborne Eighth Generation (5th Great-Grandchildren) 45. Jeremiah Osborn1 (Joseph 7, Thomas 6, Thomas 5, Jeremy (Hieremy) 4, Thomas 3, Richard 2, Richard 1) was christened on 27 Apr 1707 in East Hampton, Suffolk, New York 1 and died on 24 Aug 1775 1 at age 68. General Notes: The source of Jeremiah's family is East Hampton History, 1898, page 320. This line is included because some of his descendants settled in Troy, NY, quite near Lansingburgh where their cousin Stephen Osborn was when he married Martha Barton. East Hampton History, 1953 says Jeremiah 4 inherited from his father the place on the corner bought of Capt. Thomas Wheeler; the last Osborne to own it was Dr. Edward Osborne 7. 1 Jeremiah married Mercy Baker on 11 Nov 1735. Children from this marriage were: 53 F i.

General Notes: The 1776 Census for East Hampton, Suffolk Co., NY listed Thomas 0121100. These columns decode as: Males (above 50, 17-49, under 16) Females (above 16, under 16), Negroes (above 16, under 16). East Hampton History, 1953, indicates he inherited "Pudding Hill." Three Osborn brothers - Abraham, Jacob and Conklin, married three sisters - Phebe, Charity and Abigail, daughters of Stephen Hedges of Sagg. Jacob 6 and Conklin 6 moved to Blenheim Ridge (South Gilboa) N.Y. in the Catskills, where they raised families; some of their descendants have returned to E.H. Letters written to Abraham and Phebe Osborn, and to Jared and Ruth Hedges (shortly after leaving E.H.) in 1809 by Abigail Hedges Osborn are kept by J. Howard Hand of Wainscott. It is likely that the name "Pudding Hill" applied since Revolutionary times to the place at the right hand corner of Woods Lane and Main Street as one enters from the west, concerns the family of Joseph 5. One of his wives must have been heroine of the incident put into verse years ago by a local ballad writer and set to music recently by Miss Louise Mulford of Amagansett. The story goes that the mistress of the house, one day during the British occupation of L.I. was busy boiling a berry pudding for noonday dinner 33

Rather than feed the enemy, she threw the boiling hot kettle, pudding and all, down the sandy hill to the chagrin of the hungry invaders. It was only a few years ago that a handful of British uniform buttons was upturned by gardening operations on Pudding Hill. The place is owned today by John R.

Jeremiah is listed in "New York in the Revolution", p. 195, as making loans to the State. 1 Jeremiah married Mary Parsons. Mary was born on 2 Oct 1755 and died on 31 Jan 1797 at age 41.

Hedges indicates that Cornelius resided in Jericho (about a mile WSW of the center of East Hampton) and that in 1808 his son Stephen moved to Lansingburgh, NY. From the following I assume that Cornelius either went with or soon followed his son Stephen. The 1830 Federal Census Index indicates the following: Osborn, Cornelius

1830 GREENWICH, WASHINGTON CO., NY 163

Of special interest, Cambridge, Washington Co., NY is where our William Sidney Barton's grandfather Rufus settled in 1799 before they moved on to Lansingburgh, NY, about 15 miles SW before 1820. Cambridge is about eight miles SE of Greenwich. In the 1820 Federal New York Census C. Osborne is listed in Greenwich on page 203. The 1810 Federal New York Census does not contain a Cornelius Osborn. However, there were 22 Osborn families in Suffolk Co., one in Rensselaer Co., one in Onondaga Co., and two in Washington Co. The 1800 Federal New York Census shows Cornelius Osborn in Suffolk Co. on page 89 with 2100145

Descendants of Richard Osborne 10110-00. East Hampton History, 1953, page 495 indicates Cornelius 5 served during the American Revolution as a private in Suffolk County 1st Regiment of Minute Men. He lived at Jericho, East Hampton. An early reference to Cornelius Osborn is found in the Index to Miscellaneous Records, Book I, 17911831, Washington County, NY, page 337 makes reference to an assignment and discharge of assignment to A. B. F. Ormsby. While at the East Hampton Public Library in May of 2001 I found a copy of a letter written by Florence Huffman Ellis in 1977. She is Earl Osborne's second cousin. They share Cornelius Osborn and Matilda Adlridge as great grand parents. (See Duetta Florence Huffman.) The letter is filed in VF 929.2 Osborne. June 18, 1977 11285 Shadow Las Vegas, Nev 89102 Dear One,* Have been doing a bit of cleaning out my cedar chest & came across the pillow case. This is the information written on the note - The flax from which this case was made was raised and spun by Cornelius and Hannah Osborne, you great grand father and grandmother . Cornelius was born Sept. 24, 1753 - married Hannah Hedge - died 1810, aged 57. Both the above were baptized by Samuel Buel 1786; as given in Church Records, East Hampton, Suffolk Co. Long Island. This case to be kept in the Osborne family. Sent to Mary Osborne Greeley in the possession of Julia Greeley Mc Gowan from the time of Mary Osborne Greeley's death June 18, 1914, until the death of Julia, June 9, 1932, then given to Paul Greeley, brother of Julia. After Paul's death the pillow case was given to Florence Huffman Ellis, daughter of Mary Swartout Huffman, oldest child of Mary Osborne Greeley. Mary Osborne Greeley was my grandmother so you would be the fifth generation removed from the Osbornes that made the pillow case. Isn't it interesting that you would be the one to return to live on Long Island. Thought you might do a bit of research before you come out. It would probably be easier ... the letter ends here. In fact, it appears several pages of the complete file are missing. There is a hand written genealogy as the next two pages that cover 5. Cornelius and 6 Stephen. It appears that the first four levels are missing. * "Dear One" appears to be to Florence's daughter Annette Ellis Fisherman, 11 Shoreview Rd, Port Washington, NY. (See Annette Marie Ellis.) 1 Cornelius married Hannah Hedges,1 daughter of Matthew Hedges and Hannah Hudson. Hannah died on 20 May 18161 and was buried in East Hampton, Suffolk, New York, , South End Cemetery.1 General Notes: The East Hampton History does not specifically identify this Hannah Hedges as the Hannah Hedges born March 2, 1766, daughter of Matthew Hedges.

Descendants of Richard Osborne Tenth Generation (7th Great-Grandchildren) 72. Jeremiah Osborn1 (Jeremiah Captain 9, Jeremiah 8, Joseph 7, Thomas 6, Thomas 5, Jeremy (Hieremy) 4, Thomas 3, Richard 2, Richard 1) was born on 17 Sep 1776. 1 General Notes: East Hampton History, 1898 says Jeremiah was a graduate of Yale and removed to Troy, Rensselaer, New York and was Surrogate of that county.1 Jeremiah married Peck. The child from this marriage was: 98 M i. Marcus Brutus Osborn 1 was born about 1808. 1 General Notes: East Hampton History, 1898 indicates Marcus settled in Illinois. 1 79. Silas Osborn 1 (Cornelius 9, Thomas 8, Joseph 7, Thomas 6, Thomas 5, Jeremy (Hieremy) 4, Thomas 3, Richard 2, Richard 1) was born from 1780 to 1790. 1 General Notes: There is no proof this Silas is the son of Cornelius Osborn. However, Monroe County is where Cornelius settled earlier. The only other Osborn in Monroe in 1830 is Martha Barton Osborn, widow of Stephen, who is living nearby in the community of Gates. Silas Osborn is listed in the 1830 Monroe County, New York federal census on page 293 in the town of Ogden. He is at least 40 and less than 50 years old. His wife is apparently at least 30 and less than 40. They have one son under 5, one at least 5 and under 10, and one at least 15 and under 20. They have one daughter at least 5 and under 10 and one at least 10 and under 15. Silas would be born between 1781-1790. His wife would be born between 1791-1800. A son would be born between 1811-1815. A son would be born between 1821-1825. A son would be born between 1826-1830. A daughter would be born between 1816-1820. A daughter would be born between 1821-1825. These numbers and dates do not quite agree to the information from Patrick Persons contained in Silas's daughter Emily's notes. The 1840 federal census for Tekonsha Township, Calhoun County, Michigan lists Silas Osborne with one male between 15-20 and one between 60-70. He has one female between 10-15, one between 15-20, and one between 60-70. He is on the same page as Cornelius Osborn. For future investigation there is a Charles Osborn born in the early 1800s. He married a Martha A. Benjamin on 9 Dec 1849 in Rochester. They were both of that city. In the mid 1850s - mid 1860s there are several land transactions recorded in Monroe County for them. Charles died Apr 25, 1881 in Rochester. In the East Hampton History, 1898, p. 320 states that Cornelius 6 Osborn (son of Cornelius 5) died in Monroe County, N. Y. leaving children Robert 7, Reuban 7, and others. This statement of "others" makes it possible that Silas is in fact the son of Cornelius 6.

Descendants of Richard Osborne Dear Roy, I have been studying your entries on Ancestry.com and believe my gggrandmother was in Darlene's family. Her name was Harriet Phebe Osborn, born 1 August 1809 in Monroe, NY, daughter of Silas Osborn and Polly Bush. Harriet married Isaac Hyde Bishop 13 Dec 1827. He was son of Isaac Gates Bishop and Mary (Polly) Hyde. Their daughter Anna Eliza Bishop was born 1 May 1834 in Lima, NY. 18 Dec 1866 she married Joseph Nutt in Leoniades, St Joseph Co, Michigan. Harriet died in Taylorville, Illinois on 20 Dec 1870. My information is from a family Bible. Isaac Hyde Bishop's parents and Isaac Hyde and Harriet Phebe Osborn Bishop were members of the Mormon church. I was interested to see you feature a letter from a Jerry Gray, who names Polly Bush. I could not find a descendancy leading to Darlene on your Ancestry pages. I was interested to see if she might be a cousin of mine. It appears likely that my Harriet Phebe Osborn may have been sister of Silas, Mary, and Emily, children of Polly and Silas. I also note in your Ahnentafel on Ancestry that you list a Phoebe born in 1800 who married Nathaniel Conklin Barnes. Although this Phoebe was born only a few years earlier than my Harriet Phebe, could she have been my Harriet's aunt? Looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you. Best wishes, Janet Schnurr 1 Silas married Polly Bush.2 Polly was born in , Monroe, New York and died in 1862 in St. Joseph, , Michigan. 3 Children from this marriage were: 99 M i. Silas Osborn was born about 1823 in , , New York. 100 F

ii. Mary Osborn was born about 1828 in , , New York.

101 F

iii. Emily Osborn3 was born about 1829 in Ogden, Monroe, New York and died in 1865 in Marshall, Calhoun, Michigan about age 36. General Notes: These are a couple of messages I received from Patrick Persons in July 1994: Roy, I don't think I can help you with your Barton family, but you may have provided me with a clue that will help me solve my Osborn dead-end. My ancestor, Emily OSBORN(E) was born 1829 in Monroe County, New York (I think in the town of Ogden). Her family moved to Calhoun County, MI and she married Joseph Kipp. She died in 1865 in Marshall, MI. I've never been able to determine who her parents were, despite much searching at the Calhoun Co courthouse. In a book of cemetery records her name follows those of a Silas Osborn and his wife Polly. Other Osborns that appear frequently in the county are, Cornelius and Rufus. I would be very interested to learn more about your wife's Osborns. Do you know the names of Charles Barton Osborn's parents? Did your Osborn family ever live in Monroe Co., NY? When I go home tonight I'll check my records to see if I have anything on your Bartons. You never know. I'll look forward to your reply. Hopefully we can help each other. 52

Descendants of Richard Osborne Patrick Persons Canton, MI [email protected] Roy, Great to hear from you! Its so good to find someone else researching this Osborn family. They have been giving me fits for years - I never am able to get past Silas. Maybe by combining forces we can make some progress on this line. I checked my records and Emily Osborn was born in Ogden, Monroe Co., NY around 1829. I suspect that her parents were Silas and Polly, but I don't know this for sure. That is my first goal - to find proof of her parents names. Silas and Polly had a daughter Mary b.a. 1828, m. Isaac Bisbee; and a son Silas b.a.1823. I would guess that Silas (Sr.) was a brother-in-law to Martha Osborn. Now we need to figure out who Martha's husband was and who is parents were. The mention of Cornelius and Sidney Barton being second cousins could be useful information. I'm hoping that the answers to some of these questions may be found in Monroe County, NY. I'm sending a letter to the Ogden town historian to see if she can help. Land records for Monroe county would probably be helpful, but we'd either need to go there in person or pay to have someone search them. Probate records would be very helpful for you to find Martha's husband, but last time I checked it cost around $75 just to have them search - even if they don't find anything Let me know if you have any other ideas on how we can track down these Osborns? I'll definitely keep you posted. Thanks again for your information.

iv. William Osborn. General Notes: From: "Mr. Jerry" Date: Thu, 30 Aug 2001 12:17:03 -0700 (PDT) Darlene, I looked at your page on Osborne ancestry and found a connection to my family that I have not yet proved. It appears there is a source called the "Congregational Year Book 1886, Rochester Academy"cited by a genealogist who worked on the Crandall line and discovered that Rev. William H. Osborn(e) - the spelling differs constantly throughout various sources of course - had a father named Silas Osborne and mother named Polly Bush. I am slightly uneasy about research I have not done myself so I am still examining the validity of this source to my own satisfaction, however it's a bit of a confirmation that you have Polly and Silas on your page as well. If the "Rochester" source is correct, then one of the unnamed males of that family was my great grandfather rumored to have come from Utica, NY to Franklin Co.,Ohio, and thence to Michigan according to my research. Your mention of Calhoun Co., intrigued me because my William was mentioned in the 1850 census enumerated in Marshall (Calhoun Co.) Mich. I can confirm that this census is absolutely "my" William Osborn, by the other names mentioned in the household. An interesting coincidence. I will attempt with some renewed vigor to investigate the later census records to see if Silas is mentioned with other family members (NY, MI) that fit our profile of possible children or spouse names... Keep in touch and anything I find I will shoot your way. Good luck and thanks for the clues! Regards, Jerry Gray

80. Stephen Osborn (Cornelius 9, Thomas 8, Joseph 7, Thomas 6, Thomas 5, Jeremy (Hieremy) 4, Thomas 3, Richard 2, Richard 1) was born on 12 Nov 1786 in East Hampton, Suffolk, New York and died before 1835. General Notes: All we know about the father of Cornelius Osborn is that he was definitely dead by 1836 when Cornelius, Rufus, their widowed mother, and their sisters moved to Calhoun County, Michigan. He probably died before 1830 because Martha Osborn is the head of household in the 1830 federal census for Monroe County at Gates. Stephen married Martha Barton,1 daughter of Rufus Barton and Prudence Cole, on 12 Sep 1812 in Lansingburgh, Rensselaer, New York. Martha was born on 9 Jul 1785 in Warren, Bristol, Rhode Island, 1 died on 2 Feb 1853 1 at age 67, and was buried in Tekonsha, Calhoun, Michigan, , Windfall Cemetary. 4 General Notes: Martha is assumed to be the mother of Cornelius and Rufus based on land records and census records that place them all near each other. (In 1835 and 1836 she and Rufus both owned property on Spring Street in Rochester. Spring is only a couple blocks long.) In fact, in the 1850 census, she at age 64 is living with Rufus and his family. That census record indicates she was born in Rhode Island. Since Martha was born in Rhode Island and we know that her daughter-in-law Emma Barton's grandfather Nathan S. Barton was also born in Rhode Island, this may account for the statement made by Emma Batchelder (in Cornelius's notes) that Cornelius Osborn and Sidney Barton were second cousins. This would follow if this Martha and Nathan S. Barton were first cousins. She must have had considerable money when she came to Calhoun County in 1836. Between 1837 and 1839 she was involved in the purchase of three parcels of land.

Descendants of Richard Osborne In 1839 and 1841 she sold two parcels of land to Rufus Osborn in Calhoun County. All of this was confirmed in 1998 when I found the 1953 edition of East Hampton History and the detailed Osborn genealogy contained therein. However, this book had one mistake in it that almost lead me on a wild goose chase. The Osborn genealogy indicated that Stephen Osborn married Martha Baker. To complicate things, the book also had a detailed Baker genealogy in it. Fortunately, I could not find a Martha Baker that fit the time and place. Almost immediately it dawned on me that this Martha could not be a descendant of the East Hampton Baker line since, as I said above, later census records indicated she had been born in Rhode Island. I promptly checked the 1790 Rhode Island census records and found a Jessee Baker listed only a few lines from Rufus Barton in Warren, Bristol County. This is where the wild goose chase would have really begun! Fortunately, for some reason, I decided to check out an older version of East Hampton History which was compiled by Judge Henry P. Hedges in 1897. The Mesa, AZ Family History Center had a microfilm copy of the text. It was dark and unreadable in spots, but its account of the Osborn genealogy indicated that Stephen Osborn had moved to Lansingburgh, NY and had married Martha Barton. Since Rufus and Prudence Barton had also moved to Lansingburgh about this same time, I checked and they in fact had a daughter named Martha born in 1895. This matched the later census age of the Martha that apparently was the mother of our Cornelius. All of this was almost immediately confirmed when I found a microfilm copy of marriage notices posted in the Lansingburgh Gazette. The September 15, 1812 edition clearly indicated on page 3, column 5 that Martha Barton and Stephen Osborn were married there on September 12, 1812. Thus, after many years of searching, we have finally proved the statements made in the notes prepared by Emma Batchelder in the 1960s that Sidney Barton and Cornelius Osborn were second cousins and Charles Osborn and Emily Barton were 3rd cousins. In about 1839 Martha received 240 acres from the Government Land Office in Tekonsha Twp Section 32. In Calhoun County Index to Deeds, Book 1, Jan 25, 1838, sold property in Section 32 to her nephew William S. Barton. Martha's 1840 entry in the 1840 federal census for Tekonsha Twp, Calhoun County, MI indicates a girl under 5, a boy 5
