PREFACE. 
 
 The desire to know something of the origin, character and 
 work of their ancestors, led the three compilers of this book, inde- 
 pendently of each other, to gather such information concerning 
 their immediate line as was available. Research of public and 
 private records, begun some twenty years ago, was carried on as a 
 pleasant recreation, occupying the leisure moments of active busi- 
 ness life. A few years ago, becoming acquainted with each other's 
 work, the compilers decided to combine the results of their investi- 
 gations, with a view of eventual publication. 
 
 By extensive inquiry and correspondence throughout the country 
 with members of the family, wherever located, much the larger part 
 of the record has been obtained. Careful examination of town and 
 other public records has been made in places where the families 
 have long been located, and the results have verified and confirmed 
 the individual record, which makes a continuous and fairly com- 
 plete history of the family from the time that Thomas Boyden, one 
 of the founders of New England, landed in 1634 to the present 
 day. 
 
 His associates think it is but fair to say that the final arrange- 
 ment of the material, its preparation for the press and the super- 
 vision of the printing have been the willing labor of Mr. Merrill 
 N. Boyden. 
 
 The large number of Boyden ancestors who were Revolutionary 
 soldiers, and the re-enlistment into the Continental army " for the 
 war " by many of them, is notable, and attests their patriotic spirit.

 The detail of service rendered by them may be found in " Massa- 
 chusetts Soldiers and Sailors of the Revolutionary War," Vol. II, 
 published by the State. Certificates of a soldier's record may be 
 obtained at the Archives in the State House, Boston. 
 
 The records are arranged by consecutive generations, of which 
 the emigrant ancestor is the first, his children the second, and so 
 on. The small figures at the right of the names designate the gen- 
 eration ; the large figure at the left of the name is the distinctive 
 number of that person, whose further record will appear in the next 
 generation ; the absence of a figure indicates that nothing more is 
 known. Towns and cities, when the State is not mentioned, are to 
 be understood as being in Massachusetts, except as governed by 
 the context. 
 
 Discrepancies between dates as here given, and those in certain 
 family records, may perhaps be discovered ; it has often been diffi- 
 cult to decide which of the conflicting reports received should be 
 accepted ; it is proper to say, however, that nothing has been given 
 except on authority believed to be reliable. Corrections or infor- 
 mation which will aid in perfecting the record will be gladly 
 received by Mr. Wallace C. Boyden, Newtonville, Mass., or by 
 Mr. Merrill N. Boyden, Old State House, Boston, Mass. A few 
 errors, discovered since the pages on which they occur were 
 printed, are noted on page 237. 
 
 Abbreviations used are : b. born, d. died, m. married, unm., 
 unmarried, bap. baptized, pub. published intention of marriage, 
 dau. daughter. 
 
.'[HOMAS BOYDEN 
 
 AND HIS DESCENDANTS. 
 
 Thomas Boyden is the ancestor of all who by birth have 
 borne the name in America, with a few exceptions occurring 
 during the last fifty years. He embarked for New England 
 in the ship * Francis ' from Ipswich, Suffolk County, England, 
 in April, 1634, having taken the oath of allegiance and 
 supremacy before His Majesty's officers according to the 
 order of the Lords of his Privy Council. He was then 
 twenty-one years of age, as stated in the list of passengers. 
 
 Everything known clearly indicates that the family was 
 long established in England. James Guilt, in his Encyclo- 
 pedia of Architecture in a list of famous early Architects, 
 gives the name of William Boyden as Architect of the 
 Chapel of the Virgin at St. Alban's Abbey in the 13th cen- 
 tury. The surname has frequently been found in English 
 records during the past three centuries, and there is a village 
 in Suffolk called Boyden, where are located certain estates 
 enumerated in the will of an English nobleman. 
 
 Of the parentage, birthplace, or history of Thomas previous 
 to embarkation, nothing has been found. No mention of that 
 period of his life has appeared in any existing records of the 
 several towns where he resided, viz. : Scituate, Watertown, 
 Boston, Groton, and Medfield. From histories of those 
 
 (s) 
 
Thomas Boyden and 
 
 places, and from private, town, and other public records, the 
 following facts have been gleaned : — 
 
 In 1635 he was in the service of William Gilson, of Scitu- 
 ate (Plymouth Colony), who was a large tax-payer in 1633, 
 one of the founders of the church there in January, 1635, 
 and builder of the first windmill in the Colony for grinding 
 corn, which before that time was pounded. As William Gil- 
 son located in that place about 163 1, it is not an improbable 
 conjecture that some previous acquaintance existed, and in- 
 duced Thomas to emigrate and engage in his employ. 
 
 The admission of Thomas to the church in Scituate, May 
 I7> 1635, is found in the church records. Just how long 
 he remained there, and when or where he was married to 
 
 Frances , his first wife, is unknown. He next appears 
 
 as living in Watertown, where the birth of a son Thomas, 
 Sept. 26, 1639, is recorded in the town records. He trans- 
 ferred his church membership to the First Church in Water- 
 town, and was made a Freeman May 23, 1647. Three other 
 children are recorded as having been born in Watertown. 
 
 In 1650 he was of Boston, as appears in a deed dated 
 27. I. 1650, granting and conveying a certain lot of land in 
 Watertown, of thirty acres more or less, to Wm. Clarke of 
 Watertown, recorded in Suffolk Deeds, Lib. I. He continued 
 to live in Boston for several years, and two children were 
 born there and baptized in the First Church, as appears in 
 the church and town records. The death of his wife Frances 
 stands in Boston records as occurring March 17, 1658, and 
 is also found in the Medfield records. On Nov. 3, 1658, he 
 was married in Boston by Gov. Bellingham to Hannah (Phil- 
 lips) Morse, widow of Joseph Morse. The Boston records 
 also show that "at a general town meeting, upon public 
 notice from house to house, town officers were chosen 12. i. 
 1659/60." Thomas Boyden was at that time chosen one of 
 the Highway Surveyors. This is the only public service 
 rendered by him, of which any record has been found. 
 
 By a deed dated Feb. 14, 1659, Thomas Boyden, of Boston, 
 and Hannah, his wife, granted and conveyed unto Joshua 
 
His Descendants. 
 
 Scottow, seven acres of upland and meadow in Muddy River 
 (now Brookline) in Boston, entered and recorded Aug. 22, 
 1660, in Suffolk Deeds, Lib. Ill, p. 390. 
 
 In 1660 there was a settlement of the Morse estate, and 
 the eldest son having received his portion, the Court allowed 
 Thomas Boyden to improve the estates of the rest of his 
 wife's children till they should be of age. It was afterwards 
 agreed that he should have all the lands and houses, and pay 
 to each of the children, when of age, the sum of £,26. 13. 4., 
 and he was to see that the " sonnes " were taught to read 
 and write. For the execution of this obligation he, " late of 
 Boston, now of Medfield," gave a bond to the Judge of Pro- 
 bate in the sum of ;^i8o, dated June 27, 1665. 
 
 On the I2th of Sept., 1662, Thomas Boyden of Medfield 
 and Hannah, his wife, sold "their dwelling house, barn, gar- 
 den, and orchard ground thereto belonging, and lately dwelt 
 in, situate at the entrance of Sudbury Lane, Boston, to Simon 
 Lynde of Boston, Merchant," and conveyed the premises by 
 a deed recorded in Suffolk Deeds, Lib, IV, p. 61. He re- 
 moved at some unknown date to Groton, where he had an 
 original proprietor's right of seven acres of land, and was 
 living there Sept. 21, 1666, when he bought of Benjamin 
 Crispe of Watertown, a dwelling house, etc., with seven 
 acres, and several other parcels of land amounting to ninety- 
 two acres. July 25, 1670, he, then of Watertown, sold to 
 Martin Townsend for ;£6o, the house and land he bought of 
 Benj. Crisp6 ; also two other lots containing seventy-three 
 acres. The house in Medfield, which originally belonged to 
 the Morse heirs, and which became the Boyden homestead, 
 was on what is now Pound Street, The town records show 
 that in 1678 he subscribed "one bushel of wheat to the new 
 brick college" (Harvard), joining many other citizens con- 
 tributing similar commodities in aid of a building partly 
 completed. In 1682 he was chosen tithing-man* in Medfield, 
 
 * The tithing-man of Massachusetts was, primarily, the head man of a neigh- 
 borhood of ten famiUes, at least ; elected by the inhabitants in their several 
 precincts, as was provided for by the Act of the General Court in 1679. He 
 
8 Thomas Boyden and 
 
 after which nothing more is said of him. His wife Hannah 
 died Oct. 3, 1676. No record of his death has been found, 
 nor any settlement of his estate. Their children — the first 
 four born in Watertown, the last two in Boston — were : 
 
 2. i. Thomas,^ b. Sept. 26, 1639. 
 ii. Mary,^ b. Oct. 15, 1641. 
 
 iii. Rebecca,'^ b. Nov. i, 1643. 
 iv. Nathaniel,^ b. , 165 1. 
 
 3. V. Jonathan,^ b. Feb. 20, 1652.

 SECOND GENERATION. 
 
 2. Thomas,^ son of Thomas (i) and Frances Boyden, was 
 b. Sept. 26, 1639, in Watertown ; d. Nov. 15, 17 19, in Groton ; 
 m. Martha, eldest dau. of Richard and Martha Holden, b. 
 Jan. 15, 1646, d. Mar. 18, 1687, in Charlestown. Her father 
 was a fellow-passenger with the senior Thomas Boyden, in 
 the ship "Francis," and d. in Groton Mar. i, 1691, "aged, 
 infirm and a widower." Children : 
 
 i. Martha,' b. July 14, 1667, in Watertown ; m. Dec. 27, 
 
 1688, Timothy Reed of Woburn. 
 ii. Elizabeth,^ b. May 24, 1670 ; joined the Second Church of 
 
 Boston 1693. 
 
 4. iii. John,' b. Dec. 6, 1672, in Groton. 
 
 5. iv. Jonathan,' b. Sept. 27, 1675. 
 
 6. V. Joseph,' b. Apr. 24, 1678. 
 
 vi. Benjamin,' b. Mar. 29, 1683, recorded as " Benjamin Bow- 
 ^ den, b. in Charlestown, son of Thomas «Sc Martha ; others 
 
 previous, but not in town." Nothing further known of 
 him. 
 
 was not a collector of the tithes, it seems, as the name might imply, but a con- 
 servator of the peace, having an oversight of his particular families, in gen- 
 eral, of their delinquencies and ill-behavior. The duties of this official appear 
 to have been distinguished from that of a constable in that it had a more 
 intimate control and oversight of families and the morals of their respective 
 neighborhoods, having a greater home power, more of the character of a 
 fatherly inspection and guidance. 
 
His Descendants. 
 
 The births of the first five children were obtained from 
 the Woburn town records, against which the following entry 
 also appears : — "These five children of Thomas and Martha 
 Boyden were entered here, by their mother's request, be- 
 cause of their moving to and fro in the Indian War. Some 
 of them were never recorded anywhere else, and the rest of 
 the records were lost." The birth of the last child, Ben- 
 jamin, is taken from the Charlestown records, and it is prob- 
 able that he died young. In the Registry of Deeds, Middle- 
 sex Co., the following records appear: — "Jan. 12, 1714/15, 
 Thomas Boyden of Groton, to son John Boyden, now residing 
 in Dedham, Co. of Suffolk, parcel of land in Groton." " May 
 29, 1 7 14, Thomas Boyden of Groton, a parcel of land to 
 Jonathan Boyden of same town." 
 
 3. Jonathan,^ son of Thomas (i) and Frances Boyden, 
 was b. Feb. 20, 1652, in Boston ; d. May 30, 1732; m. Sept. 
 26, 1673, Mary, eldest dau. of Joseph and Alice Clark ; Joseph 
 was one of the earliest settlers of Dedham, and one of the 
 thirteen who undertook the settlement of Medfield. Mary 
 was b. Mar. 12, 1649, i'^ Dedham, and was the mother of 
 all his children. He m. 2nd, Anne , who died 1735.

 Jonathan (3) Boyden's name, with that of his father, ap- 
 pears on the list of proprietors of Medfield in 1675. He 
 
lO Thomas Boy den and 
 
 was the only one of the family who removed to Medfield 
 with the father. There is no record of the settlement of his 
 father's estate, but it seems to have been transferred to him 
 in some way. He was prominent in town affairs, serving as 
 Selectman four years, and chairman of the committee to pro- 
 test against the division of the town in 1712. He was in 
 full communion with the church prior to 1697 ; became Cap- 
 tain in the Militia in 1712, and was Representative to the 
 General Court in 1715.

 Capt. Jonathan Boyden acquired considerable wealth, and 
 was highly esteemed by his townsmen, serving them as Select- 
 man for several years. He died in the year 1749, as the 
 Probate Records give the appointment, on Dec. 26, 1749, of 
 an Administrator "for the Estate of the late Jonathan Boy-

 Joseph Boyden (6) removed to that part of Dedham which 
 later was set off as the town of Needham. In connection 
 with his removal, the following letter to the Governor of 
 
12 TJiomas Boy den and 
 
 Massachusetts will be of interest, as he was mentioned in the 
 list of "persons gone," sent with the letter: — 
 
 Groton July 9. 1707. 
 May it please your Excellency, according to your Excellency's 
 commands, we have sent an account of those who are actually 
 removed, or are meditating of it. Our people are reduced to that 
 degree, that they find themselves unable to subsist any longer, .... 
 would pray your Excellency either to grant liberty for their re- 
 move, or that they may be reduced here entirely to garrison of the 
 town militia for the preservation of the frontiers. We thankfully 
 acknowledge your Excellency's great care of us hitherto, and would 
 pray the continuance of your regards, without which we are an un- 
 done people. We take leave to subscribe

 Joseph Boyden was chosen a selectman of Needham 1721, 
 and also, the same year, one of three custodians of a fund 
 of " Eaight score pounds " received by an Act of the General 
 Court, for the "use of the Town and School." 
 
 On August 12, 1735, he was a tavern keeper in Sutton, 
 and in 1736 he and his wife were dismissed from the Church 
 in Needham and recommended to the Church in Sutton. 
 He removed to Worcester in 1738, where he had bought 
 "a tract of land on the south side of said town," in a 
 part known as " Bogachoge," of a hundred acres more or 
 less. In the deed by the grantor, Abisha Rice, Joseph is 
 styled Innholder, of Dedham. In 1740 he conveyed this land 
 to his sons Daniel and John, " with buildings thereon where 
 I now dwell," reserving a home and the support of himself 
 and wife for life. This property has since been known as 
 the "Old Boyden place."

 In the old cemetery of Groton there are only three stones 
 inscribed with a Boyden name, viz. : Josiah, Eunice, his wife, 
 and Samuel, his son. On that of Josiah this line appears : 
 " Also five sons and three daughters, all lying near this 
 place." There must have been several other children whose 
 names were unrecorded, as most of the above survived him 
 many years.

 Daniel (21) settled on a farm about 1740 in the south part 
 of Worcester, removing thence from Dedham. His name 
 first appeared in the tax and jury lists of Worcester in March, 
 1 741. Later, he served the town as Selectman several years. 
 He was a proprietor of the First Parish Church, from the 
 time of settling until the section where he lived was made 
 the "South Precinct," in 1776, when a new parish was 
 created and a new church organized, which he actively pro- 
 moted and sustained through life. In 1778 this parish and 
 others became a township, named Ward, which in 1837 was 
 changed to Auburn. Daniel and his brother John were 
 among the original proprietors of Guilford, Vt., with other 
 citizens of Worcester. 
 
 His son William was a pioneer settler in Dummerston, Vt., 
 and became a man of affairs. He was a prosperous farmer, 
 and influential in supporting school, church and civil matters. 
 He left a valuable estate, and named his wife Joanna and 
 nephew Asa as executors of his will. He had no children, 
 but had adopted Asa, son of his brother Darius, when he was 
 five years of age, and also adopted several orphan girls.

 Joshua (26), after the death of his father, appears to have 
 taken up his abode with his grandfather, Capt. Jonathan, 
 upon whose death in 1732 he inherited the homestead. It 
 is certain that Joshua was living in Pound street, near South, 
 in 1735. He was a housewright, and had perhaps assisted 
 in building the house. He was Sealer of Weights and Meas- 
 ures in 1742, and Selectman in 1755, 1757 and 1758. In 
 1762 he deeded the homestead to his son Asa, and removed 
 to " Rutland District," that part known as the town of Barre, 
 Mass., where he was admitted to the church by letter from 
 the Medfield church.

 Seth Boyden (27), the ancestor of the Foxborough Boy- 
 dens, bought (May 25, 1737) 268| acres of the so-called "Dor- 
 chester Lands," being in the " Forty Fifth Lot," held in 
 common, and lying in that part of Stoughton (then in Suffolk 
 County) which was incorporated later, with parts of other 
 towns, into the town of Foxborough, in Norfolk County, 
 paying for the land ;^470 6s. 2,d. 
 
 By this and subsequent purchases he acquired a control- 
 ling interest in about six hundred acres of land, which was, 
 however, by allowance for "bad land," rated as about 437 
 acres. He appears to have been the local representative 
 and active spirit of the " Proprietors of the Forty-fifth lot " 
 from 1739 to 1758, and possibly later, in the development of 
 its iron industry. 
 
 Hundreds of tons of the ore were dug from these " Lands " 
 and sold by each of the several owners annually, under restric- 
 tions imposed and rights granted by the proprietors at their 
 meetings. The records of these meetings are still in exist- 
 ence, and show Seth to have been a man of energy and 
 purpose, careful and methodical in his habits, and possess- 
 ing the confidence of his fellow proprietors, many of whom 
 lived in Walpole, Medfield, or other adjoining towns. 
 
 In 1750 he was collector for the Second Ministerial Pre- 
 cinct of Stoughton, and his accounts and Rate-book cover- 
 ing the service rendered are to-day an evidence of his care 
 in business matters entrusted to him. 
 
24 Thomas Boyden and 
 
 His name appears for the first time on the voting list 
 of Stoughton in the year 1742, and it is probable that he 
 removed to Stoughton at about that date, and built the 
 house and cleared the ground to which in 1744 he brought 
 his wife, Elizabeth Turner. 
 
 A family tradition says that he first built a small log cabin 
 against the great rock on the old farm, and then planted an 
 orchard and built his house near by, some of the stones of

 Josiah moved to Deerfield, probably in 1762. Jan. 12, 
 1767, a petition of the inhabitants of the South-west Division, 
 to be set off into a township, was granted by vote of the 
 
His Descendants. 29 
 
 town of Deerfield ; among the petitioners the names of 
 Josiah and John Boyden appear. The new town was incor- 
 porated June 17, 1767, as Conway, and the first meeting held 
 on Aug. 24, 1767, when the organization was completed and 
 town officers chosen ; among them was Josiah Boyden. He 
 was probably the second man who settled there, and his son 
 David was the first child born in the limits of what became 
 Conway. His daughter Mary (who married Medad Critten- 
 den) was born on the day the first town meeting was held, 
 and attended the Centennial Anniversary in 1867. The fol- 
 lowing is taken from the oration given that day : " The first 
 settlers of Conway were men and women of sound minds, 
 frugal and industrious habits, strict integrity of character, 
 and sterling worth." Several farms belonging to the early 
 Boydens are still cultivated by their descendants, notably 
 that of Josiah (38), where the sixth of that name, Josiah Ray- 
 mond, son of Josiah Dwight, is now living, 1900, aged six

 John (39) went from Andover to Deerfield in May, 1763, 
 and settled in the part which was afterward set off as Con- 
 way. Col. Frye bought a farm there and gave it to his 
 daughter Sarah. At her decease it went to her two eldest 
 sons, John, Jr., and Jame.s, by deed which is in the possession 
 of her great-grandson, James Dwight Boyden, of Conway 
 (1898). John and Sarah, his wife, were admitted to the 
 church in Conway, June 22, 1770, and their sons John, James, 
 and Frederick were then baptized by Rev. John Emerson ; 
 he was the first minister in Conway, having been settled 
 there in 1769. Referring to its rough condition at that time, 
 he said he was literally "John preaching in the wilderness."

 Jonathan (40) lived in Groton from his birth until after 
 1784, when he removed to Chester, Vt., where his three 
 youngest children were born. His daughters, Eunice and 
 Rebecca, were married in Chester. In January, 1793, he was 
 dismissed by the Groton church, and recommended to a 
 church in Cavendish, Vt., a town adjoining Chester. No 
 evidence has appeared that he owned any home in Chester, 
 nor any town record of the birth of his children. He re- 
 moved to Shoreham, Vt., with his family (date not known). 
 In 1807 Jonathan and Rebekah Boyden, of Shoreham, gave 
 a mortgage, which was paid and discharged Jan. 17, 181 1. 
 This mortgage was witnessed by Jonathan Boyden, Jr. His 
 sons, Jonathan and David, married girls born in Shoreham ; — 
 the latter married Amy Waite about 181 1, when he went to 
 New York State, and his father with him, probably ; finally, 
 about 1820, they located in Washington County, Ind., in a 
 village now called Campbellsburg, and remained there till 
 after the father's death, about 1833.

 two sons, Josiah and Abijah, who received the same fatherly 
 care he gave to his four children during his life ; he was ever 
 ready to extend a helping hand to a neighbor ; and under 
 whatever afflictive circumstances people were suffering, he

 Jacob (^66) removed with his family to Eastern Maine, 
 where he was the pioneer settler of what is now the town of 
 Robbinston. He began clearing the dense forest bordering 
 a lake called by Indians "Nasaic" (meaning roily water) ever 
 since known as Boyden Lake. Possessed of great physical 
 strength and mechanical faculty, he and his sons felled the 
 big trees for lumber, cleared the land for farming, and built 
 a saw mill and blacksmith shop. Jacob hammered out on 
 his anvil a gang-saw, which was successfully used for sawing 
 logs. In the course of time he had a fine farm and a com- 
 fortable home. He was known as Deacon Boyden, and was 
 ever active in good works, and highly esteemed by all that 
 knew him. His sons cleared adjoining lands, and were lum- 
 berers and farmers ; some of their descendants are still living 
 on the ancestral acres.

 After the death of his father, Seth came into possession 
 of the homestead and a large portion of the farm ; his ten 
 children were born there. His sons assisted him in the farm 
 work during their minority. He was very ingenious, was his 
 own blacksmith, and did the necessary iron work upon farming 
 implements, beside much that was experimental in machinery. 
 He invented a machine for splitting leather, constructed it 
 in his blacksmith shop, and operated it successfully. In 
 18 1 5 his sons Seth and Alexander bought of him an exclu- 
 sive right to control the business in the State of New York. 
 He was prominently active in the town business, and was 
 chosen many times as Selectman, and Representative to the 
 General Court. He held a commission as a Justice of the 
 Peace. 
 
 The closing year of the Revolution found him, though 
 but a youth, cruising in a privateer, captured by a British 
 fleet, and thrown into a prison ship at New York, whence 
 he with three companions from Foxboro were released at 
 the close of the war. 
 
 Uriah A. Boyden was educated in the schools of Foxboro, 
 and assisted his father in the work of the farm until his 
 majority. He then joined his eldest brother Seth at Newark 
 N. J., and remained with him until about 1828, when he re- 
 
46 Thomas Boyden and 
 
 turned to Massachusetts and engaged under James Hayward 
 on the first surveys for the Boston & Providence Railroad ; 
 he was afterward employed, under Loammi Baldwin, in the 
 construction of the stone dry dock in Charlestown Navy 
 Yard, of several mills at Lowell, and of the Boston & Lowell 
 Railroad. In 1836-8 the Nashua & Lowell Railroad was 
 built by him as engineer. In 1837 he opened an office in 
 Joy's Building, on Washington Street, Boston, as a civil 
 engineer, and at the date of his death he occupied nine 
 rooms for business purposes ; his bachelor home was in 
 Young's Hotel, across the court. 
 
 He invented and patented improvements on the turbine 
 water-wheel, and in philosophical and electrical apparatus, 
 which gave him a large income, and enabled him to devote 
 much time to scientific pursuits for some years previous to 
 his death. 
 
 He attained distinction as a mathematician, and was hon- 
 ored and esteemed by his professional brethren. Harvard 
 College conferred upon him the honorary degree of A. M. 
 in 1853. 
 
 His garments were always of Quaker color and style ; he 
 was a vegetarian in diet, never drank tea, coffee, wine or 
 spirits, was an early riser, and daily took a long walk at a 
 rapid gait, before breakfast, rain or shine. He bequeathed 
 nearly his entire estate in trust for " scientific investigation 
 of the properties of caloric and phenomena relating thereto." 
 This has been invested as The Boyden Fund, which now 
 amounts to ^240,000, — Harvard University being the trus- 
 tee, — and the income is used, in accordance with the pro- 
 visions of the will, largely in connection with Harvard's 
 astronomical station in Peru.

 Simeon (^y) was a wool carder and cloth dresser in North- 
 field, and a manufacturer of wool cards in Orange, previous 
 to 1 8 10. In that year he was keeping a tavern in Market 
 Square, in Boston, where the Plymouth stages had their 
 booking office for passengers. In 1818, he became the land- 
 lord of the " Indian Queen " tavern in Bromfield Lane ; in 
 1822, he was the proprietor of the City Hotel, in Brattle 
 Street ; under his management the house became very popu- 
 ular, and being offered a large bonus he sold and obligated 
 himself by bond not to be a competitor in Boston or the 
 vicinity. He next became the first landlord of the Astor 
 House in New York City about 1835. His success was 
 remarkable, and he was called the "prince of landlords."

 Seth Boyden (151) "engaged in leather manufacture in 
 Newark, N. J., in 181 3 ; he invented a machine for splitting 
 leather, and began the manufacture of patent leather in 1819 ; 
 
90 Thomas Boyden and 
 
 he perfected the first locomotive with the driving-rod outside 
 the wheel, produced the first daguerreotype in America, 
 invented the process of making spelter, discovered the art of 
 making Russian sheet-iron, and patented a hat-body doming 
 machine, used in all the hat manufactories in the United 
 States." — Dicty. of Am. Biography. 
 
 A bronze statue of " Seth Boyden, Inventor," stands in 
 Washington Park, Newark, N. J., erected by the mechanics 
 and artisans of that city, in honor of a fellow-craftsman. He 
 was a philosopher, acquired an excellent knowledge of optics, 
 chemistry, electricity and botany, and worked to accomplish 
 certain results beneficial to mankind, rather than for his own 
 pecuniary gain. In his later life he undertook the cultivation 
 of the strawberry, and succeeded in producing berries of the 
 finest flavor and of enormous size, fifteen weighing a pound.

His Descendants. 91 
 
 Alexander (152) was a veteran of the war of 181 2, and a 
 captain in the militia of New Jersey in 18 16. He possessed 
 inventive and mechanical faculties in a marked degree. His 
 first business venture was in 1815, when the exclusive right 
 for the State of New York to operate the leather splitting 
 machine was granted to him and his brother Seth by their 
 father, the inventor. In 1822 he made the first malleable 
 iron casting, and in 1826 established the manufacture of 
 malleable iron in Newark, N. J., with his brother Seth. In 
 1834 the Boyden Malleable Iron Co., of which the brothers 
 were the factors, built a furnace in East Boston. He 
 patented a moulding flask called the match or snap flask, 
 which is still used and considered to be the best. As a 
 business man he was forceful and energetic.

 George Dwight Boyden was born in Conway, Mass. His 
 family went West while he was young, and settled in Lincoln, 
 
io8 Thomas Boy den and 
 
 111., in 1857. In 1875, he decided that Chicago offered greater 
 advantages for him and moved there in that year. He at 
 once made a place for himself in the business world and soon 
 gained an enviable reputation for honesty, ability, and good 
 judgment. Until his death, he was an influential citizen, 
 always generous and public spirited. He never sought any 
 political preferment and avoided prominence. He even re- 
 fused official connections with the Board of Trade. He was 
 a modest and retiring man and objected to appearing in any 
 way as a public character. His shrewdness and foresight 
 were everywhere admired and acknowledged. He was said 
 to have hardly a single enemy in the world. He is supposed 
 to have left a large estate, but the major portion of his wealth 
 consisted of personal property,

 Dwight (194) had assisted his father, "the prince of land- 
 lords," and "knew how to run a hotel." He became the first 
 landlord of the Tremont House, Boston, which in elegance 
 of appointments surpassed any hotel in the country. It was 
 opened Oct. 16, 1829, by a grand banquet ; among the gen- 
 tlemen present were Judge Story, Daniel Webster, Edward 
 Everett, Peter C. Brooks, and Josiah Quincy, Mayor of the 
 city, presiding : Everett graced the occasion by a brilliant 
 speech. Travellers were attracted from the first by the supe- 
 rior accommodations offered, and it continued to be the hotel 
 of Hoston par excellence for many years. In 1842 Charles Dick- 
 ens was a guest of the house, and mentions it in his " Ameri- 
 can Notes," in these words : — "The hotel, a very excellent 
 
His Descendants. 1 1 1 
 
 one, is called the Tremont House ; it has more galleries, col- 
 onnades, piazzas and passages than I can remember, or the 
 reader will believe." In 185 i a book was published, entitled, 
 " Rich Men of Massachusetts," in which Dwight Boyden was 
 mentioned as having "begun poor; now worth $150,000, 
 mostly accumulated in the Tremont House."

 Ebenezer (219), after graduation at Yale College, pursued 
 a course in divinity in the Virginia Theological Seminary, 
 and on May 18, 1828, he was ordained deacon in the Protest- 
 ant Episcopal Church by Bishop R. C. Moore, at Petersburg, 
 Va. He then returned to the Seminary, and for about eight- 
 een months was the editor of The Theological Repertory, a 
 monthly magazine previously edited by the professors. Late 
 in 1829 he took charge of Trinity Church, in Staunton, Va. 
 Near the close of 1832 he accepted a call to St. Paul's 
 Church, Norfolk, Va., where he remained for about two and 
 
His Descendants. 123 
 
 a half years. Owing to failing health in the low country, 
 he then left Norfolk, and took charge of Trinity Church, 
 Cleveland, Ohio. He found the work here, however, too 
 severe for a delicate constitution, and in November, 1838, he 
 was forced to resign, and returned to Virginia. On June i, 
 1839, he became rector of Grace Church, Walker's Parish, 
 Albemarle Co., Va., in connection with St. Anne's Parish, 
 also in Albemarle, but the latter charge he resigned in 1849, 
 accepting in its stead the rectorship of St. John's Church, 
 in Louisa County. These two parishes he served until 1879, 
 when he resigned both charges, owing to increasing age 
 and infirmities, and retired — not to a life of dependence 
 and inactivity, but to continued usefulness, as far as strength 
 permitted.

 effective work afterward, sustaining a superannuated relation 
 to his Conference for thirty-six years. 
 
 " In his nature he was modest and retiring, almost to a 
 fault, but in his moral and religious convictions h^ was decided 
 and unswerving. As a husband and father he was kind and 
 indulgent ; as a citizen he was faithful and respected ; as a 
 Christian conscientious and devoted. To his family, to his 
 Conference, to the church and the world, he left the legacy 
 of a pure and useful Christian life."

 Phineas was reared on the farm and in the district school, 
 and became an apprentice to the blacksmith in his native 
 village at sixteen years of age. Soon after reaching his 
 majority he purchased the stand of his employer and carried 
 on the business in the same shop up to the time of his death. 
 
 He did a thriving business, employing many hands, in this 
 manufacturing village, situated on the Boston and Providence 
 turnpike road, midway between these two cities ; here the 
 stage coach company kept a relay of hundreds of horses which 
 came to the blacksmith for their shoes, while the factory 
 agents, farmers, and families came for various metal imple- 
 ments, etc. He was a man of sterling Christian character, 
 and highly respected.

 Abner (255) was quite young when his father and family 
 moved from Walpole to Marlboro, N. H., where they remained 
 for life. A history of the town states that " he was one of 
 the most influential men of his time, serving thirteen years 
 as town clerk, fourteen years as selectman, and two years in 
 the Legislature. It may be safely said that he never neg- 
 lected or betrayed any trust reposed in him ; and perhaps to 
 him more than to any other man our beautiful village owes 
 its origin. His store was a centre of influence which ex- 
 tended throughout the town." His brothers William and 
 Elijah were his successors in business.

 and engaged in the dry-goods business at 73 Court Street, 
 which he carried on nearly three years, when, on account of 
 the death of his brother Abner, he sold his business and 
 returned to Marlboro. He formed a partnership with his 
 brother William, and, under the firm name of W. & E. Boy- 
 den, continued the business of their late brother. Elijah 
 held many offices in the town and State. In i860 he retired 
 from active business.

 days. At sixteen years of age he was apprenticed for three 
 years to a carpenter in Athol ; he applied himself to his work, 
 studied thoroughly the principles of design and construction, 
 
i6o Thomas Boy deft and 
 
 and became a master builder in that town and its vicinity. 
 About 1844 he removed to Worcester, where he began busi- 
 ness as an architect. For more than fifty years he practiced 
 his profession, and erected many churches, town and county 
 buildings, and private residences, in Massachusetts and other 
 States. The number of large and costly edifices, built after 
 his plans, attest his ability and genius; of such, the Mechanics 
 Hall, in Worcester, is a conspicuous example. His manliness 
 secured to him an honorable name and enduring fame.

 Albert G. Boyden (395) was the oldest of six children. 
 His father was a man of sterling worth, and his mother a 
 woman of fine character, who set before her children the 
 ideal of a noble life. He attended the district school until 
 the age of seventeen years. He had decided to be a teacher, 
 and strongly desired to attend college, but was prevented 
 by lack of funds. During his minority, he worked on his 
 father's farm and in his blacksmith shop, in the meantime 
 teaching school three winter terms, in Foxboro. On reach- 
 ing his majority, with good health, good habits, and a trade.

 he still preferred teaching, and immediately began earning 
 money to pay for professional training. In 1848, he entered 
 the State Normal School at Bridgewater ; after graduation, 
 he taught in Hingham, and in 1850 was appointed assistant 
 in the school at which he graduated, and held the position 
 for three years, under Nicholas Tillinghast, its distinguished 
 founder. From 1850 to i860, he was for three years prin- 
 cipal of the Salem English High School, one year sub-master 
 in Boston, and more than six years assistant in the Normal 
 School. In i860, he was appointed principal of the Bridge- 
 water State Normal School, in which position he is still 
 serving. During these forty years more than four thousand 
 pupils have come under his tuition, and he has developed 
 one of the strongest institutions of the kind in the country. 
 The school plant, under his wise business management, has 
 risen in value from a small building worth ;^ 10,000 to a large 
 establishment of seven buildings and many acres of land, 
 worth half a million dollars. His unusual success is due to 
 the fact that he has been not only an earnest student and 
 an inspiring teacher, but a sympathetic, helpful friend to his 
 pupils, and a wise and tactful administrator. He has been 
 an ofificer and active worker in various educational organiza- 
 tions, both national and local, in church work and in all 
 movements looking to the improvement of the community in 
 which he lived. In all his work, he received the able and 
 untiring assistance of his wife Isabella ; and their home life, 
 of which they were especially fond, was characterized by 
 affection, wise guidance of their children, and high ideals.

 Albert Woodbury (459) was engaged in general mercan- 
 tile business in Sheffield, from 1862 to 1887. In the latter 
 year, he and his son George Webb established the banking 
 house of A. W. Boyden & Son, which has been conducted 
 successfully ever since. In the development of the natural 
 resources of coal and mines in the State, he has been a 
 prominent force, and since 1875 has been secretary of the 
 Sheffield Mining Co. His influence in town and county 
 affairs was always potent, though he never was an official. 
 In politics he has been a staunch republican. He was a 
 member of the Illinois Legislature in 1884-5, ^^^ ^^^ of the 
 " 103 " that voted for Logan for five months.

 William Cowper (460) was educated at the Beverly Academy 
 and the Salem Latin School, but was prevented by ill- 
 
2i8 Thomas Boy den and 
 
 health from a college course. He entered the employ of 
 Joseph Burnett & Co., Boston, as book-keeper, and for more 
 than twenty years held a position which developed into 
 one of large responsibility ; afterwards, in partnership with 
 George H. Allen, of Lynn, he engaged successfully in the 
 manufacture of paper boxes in Lynn and Beverly. He was 
 for many years a trustee of the Beverly Public Library and 
 a member of the school committee, and served in positions 
 of responsibility in the Unitarian Church and the many 
 charitable institutions of his native town ; untiring in energy 
 and public spirit, but hampered always by a delicate 
 physique. 
 
 Mr. Boyden was courteous, even gentle, in bearing, but 
 of keenly incisive mind and immovable purpose. Religious 
 conviction was a vital motive power in his life. He sought 
 no position, but did not shrink from any duty that was laid 
 upon him. Appreciative of literature and music, he had 
 unusual resources for a man of affairs, — read widely and 
 was an admirer of Dickens, whose humorous sayings he 
 often quoted. His count of years was few, but his activities 
 were many and constant to the end of his life.

 CONNECTION NOT PROVED. 
 
 The connection of the following branch with Thomas Boy- 
 den, although probable, has not been certainly established.
