Notes

In 1992 I came across a two-volume history, the Cartwright-Northrip Ancestors, compiled by N. Almeda Boulton and Lloyd J. Cartwright, Saginaw Mich 1987. The authors of this book are descended from Nicholas, a brother of Edward, Jr. In the following account I quote from their work. Other statements are compiled from the publication Edward Cartwright of Nantucket Massachusetts: Some of his Descendants and their Allied Families, by Stanley L Mack Duluth Minnesota, 1936, and from items copied from sources at Nantucket by Barbara Cartwright Hartley while on her honeymoon in 1956.

The first known Cartwright in our line in America is Edward Cartwright, b. ca. 1640, presumably in Dittisham, Devon, England. Although not proven there is evidence that the family goes back in Devon for several generations.

In a manuscript prepared by Elizabeth Barney of Nantucket in 1861 there appears the following statement: "according to a statement by his son Edward Cartwright Jr., when he joined the Methodist church, Edward Sr. was born in Dittisham, Devonshire, in 1640." Almeda Boulton and Lloyd Cartwright found only fragmentary parish records from Dittisham in the Diocese Records Office in Exeter. A history of St. George's Church at Dittisham records that an unruly Cromwellian mob plundered the church rectory and burned the rector's books and the ancient parish registers. Only a few sheets remain for that period. The rector's records begin with 1651.

From the scanty records the Exeter files we did find records for Cartwright men born before 1640 who could have been the father or uncles of Edward Cartwright, Sr., for they bore the same names that Edward bestowed upon his sons born in America."

A Nicholas Cartwright of Dittisham and his wife Jane are possible parents of our Edward. Nicholas's father was Bryan Cartwright, who was in turn the son of a Nicollas Cartwrytt., the earliest found.

There are records (Boston Transcript, July 15, 1908) of two other Edward Cartwrights in the English colonies in the late 1600s. All three Edwards were fishermen or mariners and each had a wife named Elizabeth. The name is not a common one and it seems strange that there should have been three men having the same name living in the same area at the same time. From the scanty records available to us, it would appear possible that they were one and the same man. In all probability, however, Edward of Nantucket was the same Edward who was at the Isles of Shoals in Maine, and that Edward of Boston was a different person,

Our Edward (1640-1705) is first found on the Isle of Shoals, New Hampshire. "In Maine Court records (Gen. Dict. Maine and N.H, p.13l) we find that in 1670 Edward Cartwright of Hog Island (now Appldore).... was appointed to (or by) the Maine Court "grand juryman as Edward Carter [Cartwright] duly reported a dozen Shoals men for drinking and fighting. The early colonists abhorred professional lawyers and justices, so they would appoint men of character from among themselves to hold lay courts, hear charges and dispense justice in cases under 20 pounds... Thus it came about that Edward.., served in this capacity from time to time in the ocurt at York, which had jurisdiction over most of what is now the State of Maine, including the northern islands in the Isles of Shoals.

"The Isles of Shoals lie off the coast of Maine and New Hampshire, and the administration of the islands is divided between the two. 'Shoals' should properly be interpreted as 'schools,' or where the codfish school or abound in great numbers. Edward became an expert in taking and curing codfish, for the lcime was especially suited for that purpose. A fisherman could often {Jemess, "Isles of Shoals"] get eight or nine pounds (value) per man on one voyage. 'But it doth some of them little good, for the merchant (who picks up their catch], to increase his gain by pulling off his commodity in the midst of their voyages, and at the end thereof comes in with a walking tavern, a bark laden with the loegitimate blood of the grape, brandey, et.' This accounts in some measure for cases heard by Edward on Drunkenness and fighting.

"On July 4, 1671, Edward was involved in several cases against certain Shoals men for being 'drunk and fighting.' In one case against 'Thomas Pumery for breach of the Sabbath in seinding his boate from the Ysles of Shoals on the Lord's day, to the mayne in time of gods publique worshipe, 'he levied a fine of 10 shillings, 5 pence for non-appearance. In the case of William Wells 'for swearing by the name of god severall times' a fine of 5s and fees of 5s were levied. Edward was one of a grand jury of twelve men who prescribed that 'the Quaker's punishment, Moses Colinnes for his offence is to receive 20 stripes at the post. Sariah Mills for her offence is to receiv 20 stripes at the post Mary Mills to be admonished.' Mary was probably the young daughter of Sariah, On July 11, 1673, 'he (Edward) acknowledged indebtedness to Mr. Vaughn, and with consent of his wife Elizabeth, put himself apprentice to him (Mr. Vaughn) until he should have paid him 13 pounds value in fish.'"

Authentic records point to the conclusion that Edward Cartwright came to Nantucket in 1672. Edward Cartwright lived on Nantucket from the time he settled there in the spring of 1672 to the time of his death on July 2, 1705. "Nantucket records (Pollard papers indicate that Edward had a son named Nicholas with him when he came to the island. Nicholas is said to have been born in 1666 to Edward's first wife.... Apparently seven-year-old Nicholas came to Nantucket with his father, then aged 33 years. Edward married Elizabeth Trott, daughter of John and Ann Trott on Nantucket. To them were born; Sampson, Jan.26, 1677; Susanna, Feb. 1680-81; Edward, May 5, 1683; and Mary, June29, 1687 (Boston Transcript. 15, 1908). Elizabeth died Aug.12, 1729. Edward would have been 35. When he married his second wife, and Elizabeth would have been 24.

Edward purchased land (Nantucket Deeds, Bk 22, p.29) at Pocomo, a neck of land near Polpis Harbor at the eastern end of the island. He lived there all the rest of his life and added parcels to his holdings so that they extended from the harbor to Quidnet on the eastern shore. In October 4, 1676, he bought "one acre near the run" from Wat Noose, an Indian sachem. On 28 December 1678, a deed to Edward reads: "I, J. Watnoose for available sum of money in hand by me received, that is to say twenty-live shillings, have bargained and sold to Edward Cartwright of the Island of Nantucket halfe aker of marsh and meadow lying and joyning the meadow of Eliazer Foulger----." On the same day Edward also bought "one halfe acre" near Cartwright's house from Wauwinnet (another Indian). On March 3, 1679, he bought all of Wm. Worth's "halfe-share of upland in the English work sailor." and in April 1679 he bought from Wauwinnet "a piece of swampy land." Wauwinnet was the son of Watnoose.

"In 1964 we found an old home standing near Quidnet which, according to tradition quoted by Allen Norcross, its owner at that time, was 'built by Edward Cartwright for one of his three sons.' The land is described as 'part of share 8 in Squam, the George G. Cathcart farm in Quidnet, seven acres - 100 and 13/100 rods.' The Norcisos deed is dated l848 and Allen's grandfather lived there thirty years before he could pay the $500 on the mortgage. The kitchen floor of the old house had a definite 'crown,' for it was once the deck of a ship that came to griefon the treacherous Nantucket Shoals. It is most likely that this house belonged to Sampson.
