RAYMOND PADDOCK GORHAM COLLECTION
PANB MC211
I believe these to be the files that goes with the Kingston Parish History. The first group of name below were at the beginning of the previous file, titled Notes on the Loyalist Settlers of Kingston Parish.  I have moved them to this position to make a better flowing record. The notes seem to be a more polished, and represent an effort to tie family lines together where the other files merely recount the data found in their claims to the Loyalist Claims Commission.

The first group are recorded as Notes on Loyalist Settlers, and cover pages 4 to 20 of one notebook.

The second group had no beginning title, but followed the list of Lot grantees in GROUP-4 file, and begin with a second copy of William Underhill's notes, which varies in minor wording, but not in content, so will not be repeated. These notes cover pages 69 to 83, plus a few un-numbered pages. They start with Notes on Oliver Whelpley. Omitted will be part of a second copy for James Rogers, which is also a duplicate of the one in the first group. Only the part not duplicated will be recorded in the second item.

Notes about JOHN FOWLER.

    John Fowler who drew Lot No. 6, somewhere near where the Cedars Hotel now stands, was a farmer at Stockbridge, Mass. and a son-in-law of John Whelpley who also came to New Brunswick. He was formerly a resident of Guildford, Conn. but had purchased seventy-five acres of land at Stockbridge, built a house and barn and cleared some twenty-five acres. When the revolutionary war broke out he was outspoken in declairing his British opinions at a town meeting and in consequence was soon after drafted into the State Militia. Rather than fight against the British he fled to the British lines at New York and remained there until the close of the war. He rented a farm on Long Island and supported himself by growing food for the British. While returning from New York to Eatons Neck on one occasion he fell in a raiding party of the states forces, was wounded, and had an arm broken and was made prisoner. He was carried to Stamford, Conn and lodged in goal where he suffered considerable ill usage. He at last got away and in April 1783 came to St. John. He lived near the falls until August 11 of that year and then established himself on his farm at Long Reach. His losses he estimated as follows: Seventy-five acres of land at Stockbridge purchased for £55 in a wild state. With improvements of 25 acres cleared and barn he thought it would be worth £3 per acre === £225
    He produced a certificate showing that such lands had been declaired forfiet to the state of Mass. He lost also one negro named Peter, seized by the state Committee and set free. One pair of Oxen, 2 cows, 2 horses, 15 sheep, furniture and fatming utensils.

Notes on JOSEPH LYON.

   Joseph Lyon who drew lot No. 8, the farm known within recent times as the McDougall Farm, and now occupied by Fred Smith, was before the revolution a prosperous farmer of Fairfield, Conn. In Feb 1775 he signed a protest against the pproceedings of the Revolutionary Congress and thus showed himself as a friend of the British. A short time afterwasrds a proclamation was issued naming all those who were opposed to the action of the Revolutionary Congress as enemies of the state. The name of Joseph Lyon appeared on this list and in consequence he was mobbed and driven from his property. For a time he hid in a forest and constructed a cave dugout where he sheltered other persecuted British adherents. Before the Loyalist Claim commission one Ephraim DeForest bore witness to the fact that Joseph Lyon had shelytered him for thirty-three days in the woods and that he personally knew others who had been sheltered by him.
    In 1777, Lyon escaped to the British Lines at New York where he joined the forces under Gen. Tryon. At the evacuation of New York he came to St. John, arriving in Arpil of thet year and locating his farm on the river in August of that year. His brother John Lyon drew lot No. 5, on Kingston Creek.
    Joseph Lyon's property loss consisted of 150 acres of land in Reading and Fairfield purchased by himself in lots at different times, as shown by deeds presented as evidence to the Commission, at a total cost of £371. In addition he claimed to have improved the house and buildings to the extent of £100. Implements of husbandry were valued at £75. Four horses, seven cows, 12 sheep and nine cattle were lost making a total property of £1500.

Notes on JOHN WHITE.

    Of John White who drew lot no. 11 On Long Reach we find little information as yet, beyond the fact he appeared befor the Loyalist Claims Commission as witness to the value of lands which had belonged to Silas Raymond of Nowwalk, Conn. From this we judge that he belonged to the same township and as Silas Raymond was a joiner and carpenter and many of Whites descendants have followed that trade it is possible that he was of the same craft. The farm still remains in the family and the genealogy has been in part worked out.

Notes on JAMES CRAWFORD.
 James Crawford was before the Revolutionary War a farmer at North Castle, West Chester Co., NY, where he had inherited a farm from his father John Crawford. Before the Loyalist Claims Commission he produced the probate record of his father's will, giving to the ledest son, Robert Crawford, 57 acres, to Archibald Crawford, 57 acres, to John Crawford, 40 acres and the balance with buildings to James Crawford. This was sworn as consisting of about 80 acres, 7 acres of which were meadow, 10 acres woodlot, and the remainder plowland. The house was of two stories. Value including buildings £10 per acre or a total of £800. Stock consisted of one pair of oxen, theee horses, eight young cattle and 24 sheep.  Titus Brown gave evidence to the effect that James Crawford joined the Guides and Pioneers of the British Army and that his property was confiscatedand sold by the State and sold to one John Haynes.  This would appear ro be the James Crawford, Sr. who drew lot No. 12 on Long Island, the present Hayter farm, in conjunction with James Cote. The James Crawford who drew lot No. 10, the Smith farm, may have been the same man or his son.

Notes on JAMES ROGERS.

     There appear to be no records of a Rogers family on Belleisle Bay and it is possible that the James Rogers mentioned in that account may have been an ancestor of the Rogers family on lot 14, which was originally granted to Robert Logan.
     James Rogers was a sailor in the British Navy in the war against France preceeding the American Revolution and a native of England. In 1762, he married the widow of David Hennessey at Moore's Creek, North Carolina and settled on lands which had belonged to her former husband, Hennessey. These lands were extensive but not considered of great value, 300 acres in New Hanover Co. valued at £100. He lived at Moore's Creek and informed the commissioners that General McLeod slept at his house the night preceeding the battle of Moore's Creek. He was with the British in that action, 1776. Afterwards he was imprisoned by the state forces and was being taken to Hillsboro to be hanged when rescued by a force under Col. David Fanning. His house was burned and stock seized. He joined the British force under Major Craig and in 1781 proceeded with that force to Charleston and thence to Halifax, Nova Scotia. After discharge he moved from Halifax to St. John and in 1787 lived in Carleton but told the commissioners that he had obtained land on Belleisle Bay and proposed to remove there.  Losses in addition to land. One negro worth £30, 2 horses, 40 hogs, furniture, £10 in sterling and a house worth £100.
    From another source we learn that four Rogers brothers went to New Brunswick among the Loyalist but whether this was one of them or not we do not know, as yet.

(See another note for this man in PART 2)

Notes on ANDREW PATCHIN.

    Of Andrew Patchin who drew lot No. 18, now the Patterson farm, little is known except that he appeared as a witness for Joseph Dickson before the Loyalist Claims Commission in 1787. Dickson came from Fairfield, Conn. so it seems probably that Patchin came from the same place since he gave evidence as to the value of Dickson's land.
    The name Andrew Point remains attacked to a point of land projecting into Gorham's Creek and forming part of the farm now belonging to Edgar Shamper, and before that to Capt. Wm. Shamper who bought it from Frederick Crawford.
    There is a legend that the name of the point was derived from that of a man by the name of Andrews or Andrew who once lived upon it and made his living by trapping and fishing. The legend says he was a black man but that may or may not be true. Fishing and trapping have never been common occupation of negros in New Brunswick and it seems a little unlikely that this one man who lived alone on the point was colored. He may have been of very dark complexion and thus called black by the people. One version of the legend mentions him as Black Andrew. It is a possibliity that Andrew Patchin may have been his real name.
    The cellar of a house and the bricks of the fireplace remain to mark the place where the man lived. Large trees have grown up from the cellar so many years have passed since it was distroyed. Legend says that Black Andrew was drowned in the creek while fishing one freshet season.

Notes on TYLER WHIYTE RAYMOND.

 Tyler White Raymond, grantee of lot No. 13, does not appear to have ever settled on it for there appear to be records of records of him in the region. It seems possible that the White Raymond who in 1800 became manager of the Coffee House in Saint John is the same man. In the collections of the New Brunswick Historical Society, No. 7, p.64, mention is made that White Raymond was a brother of Stent Raymond of Hampton. Sabine's History of the Loyalist states that White Raymond of Norwalk, Conn, went to New Brunswick at the peace, deceased in 1835 at age 76, and was buried at Hampton.

Notes on MARTIN TRECARTIN.

    Very little information is available about Martin Trecartin, grantee of lot No. 19 in Kingston Parish and town lot No. 1112 on St. James Street, Saint John. That he once lived on Long Reach is evident from the fact that he took a leading part in the establishment of the Anglican Church at Oak Point and was the first warden. Where he went to afterwards there appears to be no records.
    There are Trecartins in St. John and it is possible that they may be descendants of the Loyalist who drew lot 19 on Long Reach.

Notes on ISAAC BOSTWICK.

    Isaac Bostwick is said to have been a native of the southern states and to have been born May 27, 1760. He was married in New Jersey, Nov. 18, 1782 to Tamson Cable. In 1783, he came to New Brunswick, landing on May 17 at St. John. He drew lot No. 20, on Long Reach, a farm which is still in the possession of his descendants. In the evidence before the Loyalist Claims Commission in the case of Samuel Miles, mention is made of the claiments property having been appraised by Isaac Bistwick and Noble Hines, and a copy of the appraisment was presented to the court. This would indicate that Isaac Bostwick was in Conn, at the close of the war and that he came from same locality as the other Kingston Loyalist.
    A daughter was born to Isaac and Tamson Bostwick in Oct 1783, Mary Bostwick who must have been one of the first children born in Kingston Parish. Handord Bostwick was born in Sept. 1785, Hannah in 1787, Sarah and Clarissa (twins) Oct 23, 1789, Thomas, Jan 1793, Jared in 1794, Ann in 1797, Jane 1800, Hiram 1803.  Isaac Bostwick died at Kingston in 1808, his wife six years later in 1814.
    Some particulars of Isaac Bostwick's family are available as follows: Hanford Bostwick married Mary Seeley, Nov 1822. Sarah Bostwick married Nathaniel Gorham, Clarissa married Daniel Crawford, Thomas married Harriet Battfame, March 1832, Jared married Mary Adams, Ann married George Prince, Oct 1820.

Charles Merrett Bostwick was brought up on his father's farm, and received his early education at Kingston. Later went to St. John and entered a mercantile establishment as clerk. In 1865, he opened a house of his own on Water St. where he conducted for years a wholesale grocery business. He was also a lumber dealer and real estate owner. He owned the Dufferin Hotel for many years. He was married Aug. 6, 1867, to Mary O'Donnell of Amherst, NS.

     Toronto and died Jan 1890.
     Guy O'Donnell Bostwick, born June 1879 educated at Rothesay, later in business.

Notes on GEORGE YOUNGHUSBAND.

    This man probably lived in St. John and never settled on his lot in Kingston parish. His name appears as one of those who signed a petition of protest against the election in 1786 of Jonathan Bliss, Ward Chipman and other representative of St John in the first Assembly of the province.
    His name also appears as one of the subscribers to the Coffee House Subscription Room in 1804. These references are to be found in the collection of the NB Historical Society, part 6, p.455 and part 7, p.66.  A George Younghusband is also mentioned as a member of the legislature at one time.

Notes on SYLVANEOUS WHITNEY.

    Sylvanous Whitney, who drew lot No. 22 on the Long Reach, was a resident of Conn. Before the revolution and a storekeeper in his native town of Stamford. He was born Feb 3, 1748 and in 1772 married Betty Hoyt of Norwalk. A very full account of his adventures with that very troublesome material [--]ea in the early days of the revolution is found in one of the histories of the period and has been copied in the notes on the history of Grey Mills.
    At the close of the revolution Sylvanous Whitney was forced to flee from Conn. because of his allegiance to the king. We find a record that he was in command of a party of Loyalist on the vessel TWO SISTERS, sailing from Staten Island to Parr Town in 1783. They arrived in Parr Town, now St. John on the 28th June. The party consisted of 42 men, 27 women, 87 children and 12 servants. In Parr Town Sylvanous Whitney received a grant of lot No. 387 on the north side of Kings St. East. It seems possible that he was burned out in the forest fire which swept that part of the new town in 1784 and then moved to the Long Reach as other Loyalist did. There appear to be no records of his having lived on the farm for any length of time however. We find records of him being a magistrate and alderman in St. John a few years later. His wife died in 1808 and he then married Sarah, widow of Abraham Wetmore. They died in Carleton, his wife in 1818 and he in 1827.

Notes on NATHANIEL GORHAM or GORUM.

 Nathaniel Gorham who drew lot No. 25, was the second son of Shubael and Mary (Sellick) Gorham of Stamford, Conn. and was born about the year 1752. He was a farmer in Conn. and followed the same occupation in New Brunswick. From the records of St James Episcopal Church, Stamford, we find that he was married to Mary, daughter of Elakim Whitney in that church on Sept. 16, 1773. His wife and, it seems probable, one daughter accompanied him to New Brunswick in 1783. He received a grant of lot No. 1020 on the south side of Kings Square, Parr Town. His house there was burned in the fire which swept the portion of the new town east of Charlotte St. in 1784. He then moved to the Long Reach and was the founder of the Gorham family on the western side of the Long Reach.
 His first wife died in the first years of settlement and is buried in the field beside the road on the farm of W.N. Sterrett. The grave has been cared for and the plow has always been turned aside to leave it undisturbed in the midst of the growing crops. Two children of this marriage survived, Charlotte Whitney Gorham who married Richard Whelpley and Nancy Ann Gorham who married Daniel Peatman.
    Nathaniel Gorham married as his second wife, Sarah Bostwick. Six children were born of this marriage, George Gorham who married Sarah Raymond, Hannah who married Hugh McCleery, Hester, who married Seth Sterrett, Francis, who married William Porter, Elizabeth who married Samuel Foster, and Henry who remained unmarried.  Sarah (Bostwick) Gorham was buried at Kingston Oct 8, 1837 and Nathaniel Gorham on Feb 9, 1846. Nathaniel attained the great age of 94 years and there are yet two people living who remember seeing and speaking with him, one of the last of the Loyalist settlers. His descendants are nemerous, the names of his grandchildren follow.

Notes on WM. UNDERHILL.

     Lot No. 19, in the middle of the peninsula was granted to Wm. Underhill but was never settled upon, probably on account of its distance back from the river. Wm. Underhill who settled at Spoon Island was possibly the same man and as his history as given by himself before the Loyalist Claims Commission is interesting it is given here, in brief form.
    Wm. Underhill stated before the Commission that before the revolution he and his family lived at Philipsburg, Westchester Co, NY and that he joined the British Army as soon as they landed on Long Island. He served for nine  months as a captain in the Queens Rangers and in that time recruited 162 men. Later he was given a warrent by Col. James Rogers to continue recruiting. While going for some fo Burgoyne's men he was captured by the enemy and made prisoner. For two years and nine months he was kept in confinment and allowed out on parole. He was on parole when Capt. Andree came to General Arnold and came in contact with him. He advised Andree of a method by which to get through the lines. Later his meeting with Andree became known and he was so ill used that he was left for dead on the ground. A patrol of DeLancey's Corp found him and carried him within the British lines, where he recovered and remained until the close of the war. He then came to New Brunswick and settled at Spoon Island.
 He had a tenant farm of 200 acres at Philipsburg. His father had it from the uncle or grandfather of Col. Phillips[rp] years before. On his father's death it came to him, have paid one of his brothers for his interest. His father had died 30 years before the war and he had been in possession until that time. 60 acres were tillable, 25 acres meadow, rent was £3,4,6 per ann. Value of farm £500. Isaac Waldron was in possession, hiring the farm from ye commission.  Stock, one pair of oxen, one pair of steers, 8 cows, 2 horses (very valuable, Col Simcoe offered him £56 for one of the horses) 62 sheep, furniture, farming utensils. Most of these things were taken after his conversation with Capt. Andree, in which he was said to have broken his parole. He lost wheat 150 bushels, buckwheat 300 bushels, oats 50 bushels. Claiment produced certificate from Col. Winslow as to loyalty and recruiting.  Stephen Baxter was witness for the claiment.

Notes on JAMES KETCHUM.

    James Ketchum who settled at Kingston in 1783 was a native of Fairfield, Conn. where he had some property. He was part owner of a vessel and went to sea on it part of the time. When the revolution began he was known to be favorable to the British and in consequence was visited by a party of armed men representing the revolutionary party and was forced to sign a paper agreeing to suport their side. For a time he was left unmolested but at the beginning of 1777 he was notified that he must take active service for the revolutionary cause. He preferred to remain British and made his escape to the British lines in Jan. 1777. In making his escape across Long Island sound his vessel was sunk. He joined the colony of Refugees at Lloyd's Neck and engaged in the wood trade with New York. He left New York with the first fleet of Loyalist in 1783. His property was confiscated by the revolutionary committee. It consisted of 1 1/2 acres in Norwalk, purchased for £25 NY currency, a valuable building site. 3 1/2 acres pasture and medow in Fairfield purchased in 1772 for £21 currency; a house and lot in Fairfield. The lot cost £3,13,4 currency in 1771, the house cost at least £100 to build, 7 acres plough and pasture land in Norwalk value £10. Personal property, one cow, horse and cart £4, one iron crow, sythe, cradle, chovel, spade and hoe, wheels, reel etc. State debts due him £130 lawful, paid into the treasury. He owed £41 lawful. Witness were Fitch Rogers and Uriah Wright. The latter valued Ketchums house at £60 currency.


PART TWO:

Notes on William Underhill (pp.69-70)

Already recorded above.

Notes on Oliver Whelpley (p.70)

    Oliver Whelpley, was a native of Greenwich, Fairfield County, Connecticut, where he lived with his father before the war. His father joined the British in 1776, giving to his sons the house and 13 acres of land. He remained on the farm a year after his father left, then joined the British at Lloyd's Neck in 1777 and served in the Barracks Department until he broke his leg. He remained within the British lines until 1783 when he came to New Brunswick in May of that year. Later, he went up the river and remained at Oromocto the first winter, then settled at Kingston. His father and all his brotheres and sisters came to New Brunswick, the father living with him at Kingston.  Losses: House and 13 acres of land valued at 160 pounds, 9 acres of the land medow, the remainder ploughed land. 2 cows taken by the rebel committee soon after father went away. Jonathan Schofield and David Schofield were witnesses for the claimant and gave evidence similar to that already stated. The father of Oliver Whelpley was probably the common ancestor of the various families of Whelpleys in New Brunswick.

Notes on James Oram, late of Pennsylvania  (pp.70-71)

 The claimant stated that he lived in Pennsylvania County near Philadelphia, and was a gardner, nursery man, and seedsman by trade. In the year 1777, he joined the British in Germaintown. He claimed that he refused a Captain's Commission in the rebel army. He remained in the British lines and served as conductor of horse to the Field Artillery inder Genral Cleveland for five years. Later, he was with Lord Cornwallis and was taken prisoner in the surrender of Yorktown. He was discharged October 1782, at Charlestown and produced before the Loyalist Claims Commission his discharge papers signed by Alexander Forbes and P. Traill who certified to his having served in the army five years and behaving faithfully. In February, 1787, he was settled on a farm in the Long Reach.
 Oram claimed that he had a garden and nursery if Mr. Gurney but had no lease. His wife remained behind when he escaped to the British lines, but the rebels coming to that locality she moved into Philadelphia. All of his garden and nursery was distroyed also his furniture. His garden was in the way of the march of the rebels, but he considered that had he not been a Tory it would not have been destroyed. Ross Curry was witness for claimant. Curry knew the claimant, that he was a gardener near Philadelphia, and that he hired the garden of Mr. Gurney. He had several hundred fruit trees. It was outside the lines but the rebel troops came there with designs to injure Mr. Gurney as well as the calimant. The witness knew the house was destroyed and would not habe neem committed had not Mr. Gurney and claimant joined the British. He spoke favourably of the character of the claimant who was an old soldier. The value of the apple trees he placed at 7c 6d per dosen.  In connection with the history of fruit growing in New Brunswick this bit if information regarding Mr. Oram may be of interest, he must have been one of the earliest nursery men in New Brunswick. Tha fact that he worked for Mr. Gurney is also of interest since the Gurney nursery is still in existence and annually supplies trees to New Brunswick farmers, many of which have been planted in Kingston district within recent years.

Notes on Simon Flaglor  (p.71)

 Simon Flaglor lived in Dutchess County, New York State. He joined the British at New York in 1779, but had been within the lines before and had once endeavoured to take thirty men through the lines to join Captain Howard's Company. From 1779 to the end of the war he continued on Long Island working for the garrison. He came to St. John in 1783. Went up river that autumn and was there all winter except once for a vist to St. John for a day and a half. He was not aware that he could send a claim to England for his losses.  Losses, consisted of one pair of oxen, one cow, one horse. He lost one horse when endeavoring to escape. He also lost four young horses, sled and wagon taken and sold at auction for assisting the army. He produced certificates of sale corresponding with the last account.  Simon Flaglor was grantee of lot No. 7, Oak Point where in later years he kept a public inn for travellers. Oak Point ws sometimes called Flaglor's Point. Bishop Inglis mentions it in his journal 1792. "Proceeded to Flaglor's Point and Belleisle Bay."

Notes on James Rogers (p.71-72)

(The following is added to the account as given of this man, in part one.)

    From another source we learn that four brothers  named Rogers came to New Brunswick with the loyalist. One T. Rogers kept an inn for travellers. P. Campbell's Travels, 1791, mentions Rogers Tavern near the mouth of the Belleisle, "Sept 2, 1791. This day we landed and dined at an inn kept by one Rogers, a Bostonian who rents the place from a settler at 27 pounds 10s currency. He raised a great deal of hay on his lot which besides produces all sorts of grain."
    Bishop Inglis mentions in his journal, "July 17, 1792, proceeded to Flaglors Point and Belleisle Bay to Rogers Tavern which is thirty three miles from St. John.

Notes on George Anderson (pp.72-73)

 George Anderson who settled on Belleisle Bay was a native of South Carolina wwhere his father had 300 acres plantation at Reedy Beach, district No. 96. His father served in the British army under Colonel King and died as a soldier at Dorchester. He left a widow who died in 1787, a son George, a daughter Elizabeth in the United States, and a son John in the United States. A son James in the United States, David in the United States, Janes in the United States, Susan, a child, aged seven with the claimant. In 1784 the claimant was in the militia of No. 96 district, but served in the British forces, and had smallpox in the army. At the end of the war he came from Charleston to Nova Scotia and later to St. John. He settled on Belleisle Bay. His claim was for his father's estate as eldest son. His father had gone to South Carolina from Ireland, twenty years before, and drew the land by grant. Thirty acres were cleared. He had six horses, 12 cows, 24 cattle, 40 hogs, 8 sheep, corn, furniture and utensils. Colonel John Hamilton was witness for the claimant, his evidence corroborating the above. The father had brought a "Pretty property with him into the country and had lived 15 or 16 years on the plantation". His son George Anderson was 23 years old in 1787.

The Paddock Family (pp.73-83 +3pp)

    While not grantees of Kingston, no history of the parish would be complete without mention of the Paddocks.

    Only a few place manes are associated with history of the Paddock Family in America. Plymouth and Boston in Massachusetts, St. John, Fredericton and Kingston in New Brunswick. In these five places the name of Paddock is honored among men. In Plymouth as among the earliest colinist, in Boston for a public life which gave to the city an honored chief magistrate, a section of Boston Common and the Paddock Elms of Tremont St. In Fredericton as one of the founders of the University of New Brunswick. In St. John for seventy years of medical service and public  works, in Kingston for a longer period of medical service and as the seat of the family for a century and a quarter. The New England history will be briefly touched upon in the genealogical tables, this first part will have to do with the history of the family in New Brunswick.

    Each year during the Encuemial excersises at the University of New Brunswick an address is delivered in honor and praise of the men who founded the institution in the early days of the Province. Among the names mentioned in this address is one of Biblical origin which sometimes appears difficult for the orator of the occasion to pronounce, Adino. The name of Adino Paddock was a household work in St. John for three quarters of a century and still is in Kingston Parish where it has been given as a baptismal name to many children in honor of the Paddocks.

    The first Dr. Adino Paddock was a son of Mayor Adino Paddock of Boston and a regimental surgeon in the King's American Dragoons before the close of the Revolutionary War. Coming to St. John at the close of the war in 1783 he drew lots on the west side of the harbour and one in Princess on Prince William St where he built his house and resided for a number of years. This lot had a frontage of fifty feet and a debth of two hundred feet and is at present the site of city hall. On the incorporation of St. John City, Dr. Paddock became assistant alderman for Guy's Ward in the first Council. As a medical man he had an enviable reputation and no effort was too great to be made in trying to cure the sick and relieve the suffering. In one of Edward Winslow's letters he is spoken of as "the indefatigable Paddock," while in another to Ward Chipman the same writer voices the confidence of the people at that time in his skill. "My boy is not dead, thank Heaven, and Paddock has gone to see him." The same confidence in the Paddock skill continued throughout the practice of his sons and grandsons and few medical men have had their orders so implicity obeyed as have the doctors of that family.

    While residents of St. John Dr. Paddock championed the cause of education and was one of those who aided in establishing the college at Fredericton where his name is kept alive in the annual address tin honor and memory of the founders. His death occured while on a vist to his son-in-law, Frederick P. Robinson in St. Mary's, opposite Fredericton November 21, 1817, when only 58 years of age. In the settlement of his estate many outstanding bills were found and among them one for 144 pounds against the Hon. William Hazen. In settlement of this bill Mr. Hazen gave a block of land in the city of St. John, bounded by Coburg, Cliff, Peters and Waterloo Streets, containing in all 5 acres and 3 rod area. The street opened up through the centre of this block received the name of Paddocl Street and serves as a memorial to the first Dr. Paddock and his two sons who practiced in St. John.

    These sons were Dr. Thomas and Dr. John Paddock, the second and third sons of Dr. Adina, the eldest son, Dr. Adino Paddock, Jr. practiced in Kingston. Dr. Thomas Paddock practiced in St. John until 1832 when he moved to Portland, ME for a few years, returning to St. John in 1855 and dying in 1858 in his 48th year. In connection with Dr. Paddock it is interesting to note that he was the builder in 1821 of the Dufferin Hotel and which the writer has seen in the last stages of being torn down in March 1924.

    Dr. John Paddock succeeded his brother in practice but had also a short life, passing at the age of 44 in 1853. His only son, Maurice Venner Paddock studied the drug business and was for many years provincial analysis. His store was on the corner of Charlotte and Union Streets and his death occured in April 23 1922 at the Imperial Apartments on King Square only a few rods from the Dufferin Hotel which had been the residence of his uncle and his father. Maurice V. Paddock had no children so with his death the Paddock family died out in St. John after a continuous association with medicine by father, sons and grandson of 139 years.

    In St. John's centennial year, 1883, M.V. Paddock planted on Queen Square, in memory of his grandfather, an elm tree, scion of the Paddock Elms of Tremont Street, Boston.

                    The Paddocks of Kingston.

    Dr. Adino Paddock, Jr., eldest son of Dr. Adino Paddock of St. John, entered upon his practice at Kingston in 1808 and was widely known as one of the skilled physicians of his age, having a practice covering the whole of the Kingston Peninsula and extending into the adjoining parishes of Springfield and Greenwich. Many tales are told in the Parish of the brusque and kindly old doctor who for the first half of the 19th century was a familiar figure on horseback, travelling with bulging saddlebags over the first rough roads of the Loyalist settlers and over the ice of the rivers and creeks. Of the miles he travelled in the long years of his practice there is no record by this which is told with reverence and loving words by the older people of the parish. "That Dr. Adina the first and Dr. Adino the second never refused a call no matter what the distance, the time of the condition of the weather." When the father was unable to continue longer the son took over the practice and faithfully maintained the family traditions for medical skill and kindly, faithful attention to the welfare of the parish. The present writer remembers him well, a brusque, kindly faced man whose greeting when called to see him when young was always "Show me your tongue laddie." Later he called with his father to see the old doctor during his last illness when unable to speak, he could only feeble write a few words on a slate. He wrote with considerable difficulty. "The laddie is looking stronger, Joe." The old doctor died that night so it would seem that his profession was in his mind to the very last. That was in 1893, closing the practice of the two Dr. Adino Paddocks in Kingston of 83 years. He had no children to continue his profession and it is related of him that a short time before his death he burned all his books of records so no one could try to collect the many unpaid accounts due him from patients.

    The Paddock Family in Kingston was continued by the descendants of the first Dr. Adino's second and third sons, John and Thomas whose family names appear in the genealogical tables. The latest of the descendants to obtain distinction outside his own parish is Charles Beverly Foster, now Passenger Traffic manager of the C.P.R. and counted one of the clever men of that corporation.

                        The Paddock Record

Copied from the family Bible now in Miss Eliza Paddock's possession, by Rev. H.S. Wainwright, 1910.

    Zechariah Paddocl was among the first settlers of Plymouth in America which arrived there from England in December, AD 1620. He was a minor when they arrived, consequently his name is not among those of the first settlers. He left two sons, one of whom died childless. The other left seven sons, six of whom left sons, two of these settled in Plymouth colony, one at Nantucket, two in Barnstable county, and one in the New Jersies. John who remained in the family house in Yarmouth, had four sons: John Ebenezer, Joseph, and Josiah. Ebenezer left no sons but two daughters. Josiah was never married. Joseph left one son and several daughters all of whom settled with their father in Middleborough, Plymouth County. His son, Thomas, died there of smallpox in 1777. He left a widow and several sons and daughters.
    John married a Rebecca Thacker and settled in her family at Yarmouth, Barnstable County, where he was a respected lawyer and died in the year 1734, at 40 years of age. His widow moved to Boston with her family in the year 1736. John left three sons, John, Adino and Enoch, and two daughters, Anna and Elizabeth, the latter died unmarried in 1760. Anna married a mariner by the name of Hawes who left one son, who settled as a coachmaker in Charleston, South Carolina and died during the American War. He left a widow and children.
    John was brought up as a merchant in Boston and died in England of smallpox in the year 1746. He never married. Enoch was also brought up as a merchant with an Uncle Thacker at Norwalk, Connecticut. He married a daughter of Rev. Mr. Dickenson of that town. She died with her first child the year they were married. He died of smallox in the Isle of White in the year 1763. His brother Adino had a handsom stone placed on his grave.
    Adino married Lydia Snelling in the year 1749, by who he had thirteen children, nine of whom died in their infancy. His eldest son, a student in Cambridge College, was drowned as he was bathing the first of July 1773.  In March 1776, Adino and Lydia with their children, Adino, Elizabeth and Rebecca left Boston, Mass. for Halifax, Nova Scotia with the Royal Army and in June following the whole family (except Adino) sailed for England where they arrived safely. In March 1779, Adino arrived in England and entered a pupil in the different hospitals to study medicine and surgery, etc. In February, 1780 Adino, Sr. and Lydia his wife, left England for the Island of Jersey and on the 11th of April Lydia died suddenly from a paralytic stroke, being fifty one years of age. March 25th, 1804 about one o'clock in the morning Adino died suddenly, being exactly 76 years old, it being the morning of his birthday. He had been in the Island of Jersey from July 1799 as an inspector of artillery stores with captain's rank and pay.

    The preceeding record has been copied in a large part as given in Sabine's History of the Loyalist. Study of the genealogy as given in New England records indicates there was possibly another generation earlier than the Zechariah Paddock mentioned. The following genealogy gives some additional name in the earlier years and continues the record down to the present time.
