INT RODUCTION.


Genealogy is family history; to some a chaos of
isolated facts; very dry; to others, facts revealing principles, laws, methods of the divine government.
Genealogy has its lessons for such as will study them;
uses for such as can appreciate and interpret them.
The family precedes the state. Love of kindred underlies true patriotism.
HON. JOHN ALDEN Was one of the principal persons,
and the last male survivor of the band of Pilgrims, who
came to Plymouth in the May Flower in 1620. With
few exceptions, and these mostly of recent date, all
persons in this country bearing the name of ALDEN are
his descendents. Of each of these who is at the head
of a family, it is the plan of this work to give, as far as
the facts are at hand, the name, residence, occupation of
males over twenty-one years of age, date of birth, and, if
deceased, of death, parentage and social position.
Descendents of the common ancestor bearing other
names are noticed in connection with the families from
which they originated. Families are usually numbered
consecutively. In a few instances, individuals are so
numbered. Numbers following the name of a head of
a family, refer back to his or her parents. Numbers
following the name of a child refer forward to his or her
own family. Some abbreviations are used, which will be
readily understood by the reader; such as, b. for born;
d. for died: s. son dau. daughter &c.





INTRODUCTION.


Errors in a first edition of a work like this are unavoidable. Persons discovering mistakes, or omissions,
particularly, in relation to their own families, will confer
a favor, by correcting the one and supplying the other;
and by making a memorandum of the same, and enclosing it by mail to the author of this Memorial at Randolph, Mass., by whom it will be carefully preserved, so
that the next edition, when called for, may be more
worthy of patronage than the present. Should sufficient
materials be collected, they will be issued in the form of
a supplement.
Correspondents and all others who have kindly contributed facts to this work, or have intimated their wish
to obtain copies of it when printed, will please accept
the thanks of the author; also custodians of public
records, through whose courtesy he has had free access
to their archives.
Two hundred and forty-six years have passed since
the Pilgrims, driven from their homes in the old world,
found a refuge in the new. They came not for conquest, nor for fame; but to secure for themselves and
for their posterity civil and religious freedom. In the
hour of peril they trusted in God, and He sustained
them. "A little one has become a thousand, and a
small one a strong nation." They "still live," in their
principles; may I not add, in their posterity? What
we have received at so great cost, let us transmit to
others as a sacred trust. It will be a power in the future, 'as it has been in the past. Doing this, we shall
not have lived in vain.                      E. A.
Randolph, Mass., Dec. 22, 1866.





MEMORIAL.
1. I. I-ON. JOHN ALDEN, ancestor of most persons bearing
thn name of Alden in this country, was one of the Plymouth Pilgrims, and the last ipale survivor of those who, came in the May
Flower, and signed the compact in her cabin in 1620.
He was not of the Leyden Church, but, as Bradford in his
".History of Plimouth Plantation " informs us,. " was hired for a
cooper at Southampton, where the ship victuled;. and being a
hopful yong man was much desired, but left to his own liking to
go or stay when he came here;- but he stayed and marycd here."
He was distinguished for practical wisdom, integrity and decision, and early acquired and retained during his long life a
commanding influence over his associates. He was much employed in public business;: was an assistant to the Governor for
many years: and, in every position he occupied fulfilled his
duties promptly and to the satisfaction of his employers.
His ancestors in England have not been. traced, so far as is
known to the writer.
He was born in 1599, and died at Duxbury 12th September
1687, "in a good old age, an old man, and full of years; and
was gathered to his: people,--and his sons buried him."
He m. probably in 1621, Priscilla, dau. of Mr. William Molines, or Mullens, who with his wife came also in the May Flower,
and both died in the February succeeding their landing.
Tradition represents Priscilla to have been, very beautiful in
her youth; and John also was a comely person;. and considering his other accomplishments, it is not surprising, that when he
was sent by Captain Standish, after the death of his wife, to

solicit her hand in marriage, she preferred the messenger to the
message.
" As he warmed and glowed, in his simple and eloquent language,
Quite forgetful of self, and full of the praise of his rival,
Archly the maiden smiled, and, with eyes overrunning with laughter
Said, in a tremulous voice, * Why don't you speak for yourself, John?'"
Their residence after a few     years was in Duxbury, on the
north side of the village, on a farm    which is still in possession
of their descendants of the seventh generation, having never
been alienated.
He made no will, having distributed the greater part of his
estate among his children during his life.time. Jonathan, his
third son with whom he resided on the old homestead, adminis.
tered on his estate, and made a final settlement with the heirs
June 13, 1688.
The settlement is as follows: " We whose names are subscribed, personally
interested in the estate of John Alden senior of Duxbury, Esquire, lately deceased, do hereby aknowledge ourselves to have received, each of us our full pcrsonal proportion thereof from Jonathan Alden, Administrator thereof, do by
these presents for ourselves, our heirs and executors acquit, discharge fully the
said Jonathin Alden, his heirs forever of and from all rights, dues, demands
whatsover, relating to the aforesaid eseate.
In witness wheref we have hereunto subscribed and sealed this 13 day of June
Anno Domini 1688.

As only eight children are named in this instrument, it was
supposed until recently that he had no more. Bradford, however, states in his history, that at the time of his writing, John
Alden and his wife Priscilla were both living, and had eleven
children; and that their eldest daughter was living, and had
five children. In the document copied above, her name is writ.

SECOND GENERATION.
2. II. CAPT. JOHN ALDEN of Boston, eldest son of John
(1.) was b. in Plymouth in 1622; was admitted freeman in
1648; was a mariner, and about 1659 removed from Duxbury
to Boston.   He was an original member of the Old South
Church in Boston at its organization May 12th and 16th, 1669.
His residence was in Alden Lane, now Alden Street. He was
a man of sound judgment, active business habits and unexceptionable moral character, and acquired considerable property.
During the witchcraft delusion in 1692, he was accused and
taken to Salem for examination, where he acquitted himself admirably, yet was imprisoned in Boston for several weeks, when
he escaped and went to Duxbury, but soon returned and gave
himself up, and was under bonds until the delusion had passed
away, and he with all others similarly accused was legally discharged.
He d. 14 March, 1702, a. 80. His will was dated 17th of
Feb. 1701-2.
His estate was divided into five parts. 1. To John Alden,
his eldest son.  2. William Alden. 3. Zachariah Alden. 4.
dan. Elizabeth Walley.  5. Unto the children of my son
Nathaniel Alden deceased, equally;-lives with his dau. Walley,
to whom he gives his house after his decease. His sons John
and William are named executors.
For eleven years after he was admitted freeman in 1648, we
have no account of his residence or pursuits. Probably he was
then as afterwards a mariner.
Dec. 17, 1659 a dau. Mary was born to him by his wife Elizabeth.
"April 1, 1660 John Aldine was married to Elizabeth Everoll
widow, the Relict of Abiell Everell deceased by Jno. Endicott,
Gov."  She was the dau. of Wm. Phillips of Watertown and
Saco.
" The Inventory of the goods of Abiell Everell deceased were
appraised by John Sunderland and John Sanford, being chosen

neither they nor their families were noticed in his will.
4. II. ELIZABETH ALDEN, dau. of John (1.) was b. abt. 1625,
and died at Little Compton, R. I. 31 May, 1717, a. 93.
The following notice is copied from the Boston News Letter,
17 June 1717. "Little Compton, 31.May, 1717. This morning died here Mrs. Elizabeth Paybody, in the 93d year of her
age. She was a daughter of John Alden Esquire and Priscilla

He was affable in his manners, highly respected, and much
employed in public business. Like his father he had a taste for
military pursuits; was early an officer in the militia, and Colonel

Involuntary servitude in those days had not been abolished
in Massachusetts, and he owned one slave by the name of
Hampshire, probably "a military necessity."

a descendant of Humphrey Turner of Scituate, Mass. She was
b. 30 Mar. 1725, and d. at Lebanon, N. H. 6 May, 1817, a. 92.
She retained her memory, and other mental faculties to the last;
was a devoted christian, had a great respect for her Puritan ancestors, and never grew weary of answering inquiries relating
to their character and condition. To her, my venerable grandmother, I am indebted for many facts relating to her husband's
ancestry as well as her own. She has been long dead; but her
memory is very precious.

' Major Alden m. and left two children, viz; a daughter who was m. to Captin Henry Swartwout, who graduated at the Military Academy in 1827; d. at
Fort Meade, Florida, 1852, after twenty-five years faithful and meritorious service. His widow is still (1866) living. The son, Bradford IR. Alden, entered
the Military Academy July 1st, 1827; grad. 1831, assecond Lieutenant; promoted First Lieutenant 1836, Captain, 1842; resigned 1853. He served at the
Academy as Teacher of French, Assistant Professor of Mathematics, Instructor
of Infantry Tactics, and from 1845 to 1852 as Commandant of the Corps of Cadets. He served also as Aid de Camp of General Scott. His subsequent history, as far as I know, is, ' Failing to obtain a commission to serve against the Rebellion, in consequence of his disability from his wound received in Oregon, he
embarked extensively in boring for Petroleum in Western Penn., and devised improved methods of refining and burning coal oil, 1861-1865.' He was eight
and a half years under my supervision and his father during the same time.
Two worthier persons I have never known."  General S. Thayer.
This is high commendation from one so well able to discriminate character, and
to whom the country is so much indebted for the military ability and prowess of
the brave men who trained our soldiers and led them on to victory during the
late fearful struggle.
Other facts were promised, but have failed to reach me. Should they be received in time they will be inserted in the Supplement.

son of Daniel, (107) was b. at Stafford, Ct. 4 July 1755; d. of
typhoid fever at Randolph, 16 Oct. 1806, a. 51.
He received his academical education at Plainfield, Ct. under
the tuition of Ebenezer Pemberton, Esq. and pursued his medical studies with Dr. Elisha Perkins, on the completion of which,
he was invited to settle in Randolph, Mass. then the South Precinct in Braintree.  He accepted the invitation, and from 1781,
to the time of his death, a period of twenty-five years, he sustained an excellent reputation, and received his full share of
medical patronage. A tribute to his memory written by his
pastor, Rev. Jonathan Strong, D. D., may be seen in Alden's
Epitaphs, vol. 3, art. 488, from which I extract the following
paragraphs.   "The duties of his profession he discharged with
reputation to himself and great usefulness to his employers.
His circle of business, although small at first, gradually increased until it became very extensive. As a physician he was remarkably prudent, attentive, and successful. During the latter
part of his life, his advice was much sought, and respected by
his brethren of the Faculty in his vicinity. No physician in this
part of the country possessed the love and confidence of his pa

tients to a higher degree. This was evident from the universal
sorrow felt at his decease."
He was admittted a member of the Congregational Church in
Randolph on the first Sabbath in June, 1788, and maintained a
consistent religious profession until his death. He was a punctual attendant on public worship; never absenting himself from
the House of God, except as required by the most urgent necessity. He was eminently a child of the covenant, his parents
and grand parents and theirs' on both sides down to the first ancestors who came in the May Flower, having all been members
of the Congregational church: and so far as is known, having
honored their christian profession.
Among his pupils may be named Doctors Isaac Alden, Darius Hutchins, Ziba Bass, Nathan Perry, Samuel White Thayer,
and Jonathan Wild, H. U. 1804. He was a good instructor, as
well as physician, performing the duties of every relation in life
punctually and with the most scrupulous exactness.
He m. Apr. 1787, Sarah Bass, dau. of Col. Jonathan Bass.
She was b. 24 Jan. 1760; d. 2 Dec. 1833, a. 74, and was a lineal
descendant from Hon. John Alden, (1) through his dau. Ruth,
(7) whp m. John Bass, son of Dea. Samuel Bass, who came to
Roxbury in 1630, and early removed to Braintree. She possessed
great energy and decision of character; made a public profession of her faith in Christ at the same time with her husband,
and was one of the best of mothers.

263. VI. REv. TIMOTHY ALDEN, D. D. Portsmouth, N. II.
Meadville, Pa. son of Rev. Timothy Alden, (117) was b. in
Yarmouth, Mass. 28 Aug. 1771; d. at Pittsburg, Pa. 5 July,
1839, a. 68. At the age of eight years he went to live with
his uncle, Lt. Joshua Alden of Bridgewater, who offered to
make him the heir of his farm; where he continued seven years.
But as he manifested a much stronger inclination for literary
than for agricultural pursuits, by his uncle's advice he relinquished farming, and commenced his studies preparatory to college
with his father, which he completed at Phillips Academy, Andover. There, it is believed, he received his first religious impressions; and there he laid the foundation of those classical attainments for which he was distinguished. He entered Harvard
College, in 1790, where he held a high rank as a scholar,
especially in the ancient languages, and delivered a Syriac Oration when he graduated.
After he left College he instructed an Academy in Marblehead, pursuing simultaneously his studies for the ministry. For
a time he was a resident graduate at Cambridge, receiving instruction from David Tappan, D. D., Professor of Theology in
the University. In 1799, having been invited to preach at
Portsmouth, N. H. he was ordained, 20 Nov. colleague with the
venerable Samuel Haven, D. D. In 1800, he opened a school
for young ladies in Portsmouth, which he continued during the
summer months until he resigned his pastorate, 31 July, 1805,
and then devoted his whole time to it, until 1808. In that year
he removed to Boston and commenced a school, where his labors were highly appreciated, and he received" the patronage of
many respectable families. About this time he was appointed





52.ALDEN MEMORIAL.


Librarian of the Mass. Historical Society and with great labor
prepared a Catalogue of its books and pamphlets which was
printed in 1811. Here also he had an opportunity of gratifying his antiquarian tastes. To the regret of many friends, in
1810 he left Boston to accept an appointment as instructor in
the Young Ladies' Department in the Academy at Newark, N.
J. From Newark he removed to the city of New York, where
he opened a school for Young Ladies, in which he continued until his attention was arrested by a proposal to establish a College at Meadville, Pa. of which he was elected President, 28
July, 1817. Here he became interested in the condition of the
Indians, and occasionally labored as a missionary among the
Seneca and Mungee tribes, His last missionary tour was made
in 1820.
In 1831 he resigned his connection with the College) and in
1832 opened a boarding school in Cincinnati. In 1833 he removed to East Liberty, near Pittsburgh Pa. and took charge of
an Academy. During the year preceding his death he preached
as a stated supply to the people in Sharpsburg. His last sermon was from 1 Pet. iv, 7; But the end of all things is at
hand. His health, which had been good, about this time began
to fail, and after a few weeks of intense suffering, mental and
physical, he became calm, and died peacefully at the house of
his daughter in Pittsburg. Rev. Mr. Todd preached his funeral
sermon, and his remains were deposited in the burying ground.at Sharpsburg, where he had commenced his labors one year before. A full obituary notice of him may be found in Rev. Dr.
Sprague's Annals of the American Pulpit, vol. 2, p. 449-454.
He was a man of rare endowments, living in the past and future rather than in the present,-ardent in his feelings, enthusiastic in whatever employments he was engaged, yet easily discouraged; ready to embark in new schemes, then suddenly
abandoning them; ever desirous of doing good, but often by
methods which seemed to others, and proved to be impracticable. He m. Elizabeth Shepard, dau. of Capt. Robert Wormated

to a widowed mother in rather straitened circumstances, the
maintenance and education of a large and interesting family of
children, to which she proved herself fully competent. Four
sons were educated for the ministry and became pastors of Congregational Churches, and adorned their profession.
Her children were, 1. Rev. OLIVER ALDEN, b. at Yarmouth, Mass. 18 Aug,
1801, and d. at Manchester, Mass. 18 Dec. 1851, a. 50 years and 4 months.
He gr. at Tnion College in 1825, and at the Theological Institution, Andover
Mass. in 1829. "He was a careful French, German, Latin, Greek, and Hebrew
scholar; had studied the Rabbinic literature, and was no mean proficient in the
Arabic."  He spent several years at Andover in literai pursuits, preaching occasionally, as opportunities occurred. His publications, original and translated,
mostly in the periodicals of the day, were numerous. While at Andover he
prepared with great labor and accuracy, a Catalogue of the Seminary Library,
which was printed in 1838. In Sept, 1839, he was installed pastor of the Congregational Church in Manchester, Mass. having previously received ordination
as an evangelist, where he continued until his death. He m. in 1843, Mary,
dau. of Nehemiah Cleaveland, M. D. of Topsfield. His library was rare and
valuable. In 1853, a memoir of his life was published by his brother Rev. Timothy Alden Taylor, and subsequently an obituary notice of him by Rev. William
B. Sprague, D. D, in his Annals of the American Pulpit. 2. *Myra, who d. a.

TIMOTaY ALDEN, who was b. at Hawley, Mass. 7 Sept. 1809, and magnified his.office. holding forth the word of life and giving it utterance kindly but with great plainness of speech. In his hands the silver trumpet never gave an uncertain sohnd.
In him was most happily combined the pastor and scholar. He wrote much for
various periodicals, also a Memoir of his elder brother. In 1850 he published
an extended treatise on some of the doctrines, duties, and dangers of the Christian Pilgrim, entitled Zion's Pathway. which he dedicated to his three brothers
in the ministry, of which it has been truly saild,--" It is a pleasant, practical
and complete compendium of systematic Theology, popularly stated and illustrated." At the time of his death he was preparing a Memoir of his honored
mother, whom he survived but a few months. His funeral sermon was preached by the venerable Thomas Shepard, D, D. of Bristol, R. I., who also preached his ordination sermon. His people testified their respect for his memory by
erecting over his grave a beautiful monument of Italian marble. The Congregational Quarterly for 1859, to which I am indebted for some of the preceding
facts, contains (a more extended notice of his life and labors. 7. Rev. RUFUS

at law, son of Joseph, (126) b. 20 May, 1785, at Bridgewater
d. Tiverton, R, I. 29 Mar. 1855, a. 70.
He gr. at Brown U. in 1807; pursued the studies of the law
with Judge Rice, Litchfield, Ct., and with Hon. William Baylies
of West Bridgewater, Mass., and was admitted to the bar at
Plymouth, Mass. in 1810.     He commenced the practice of law
the same year at Wrentham, Mass., where he pirsued his profession six years and then removed to Boston where he continued six years, and then went to Fall River. In 1837 he represented that town in the Legislature.    In 1819 he published a
work entitled " Abridgement of Law with practical Forms," 8
vo. 800 pages.
In 1849 he made an unsuccessful effort to secure a meeting
of the descendants of Hon John Alden with a view of erecting
a monument to his memory.
He went so far as to suggest an inscription for the monument which 19 proposed should be erected in Bridgewater, rather than in Duxbury, as being more
accessible and in his view quite as appropriate. It was substantially as follows:
Hon. John Alden,
Born in Old England in
1599,
Died in New England,
1687,
First of the Pilgrim Band to tread on
Plymouth Rock
1620.
For many years one of the Governor's Assistants,
The greater portion of his life an efficient Magistrate;
A christian in whom was no guile.
As a neighbor, the good Samaritan;
As a civil officer, without reproach.
His mortal remains rest in Duxbury.
This monument erected to his memory by his descendants,
1852.
From a letter received from him at that time, several of the
preceding facts were obtained. He was a worthy man and had
a go od reputation in his profession.

a small church there. In 1825, he removed his school to Proviidence, that he might supply the church in Bristol during the
Bishop's absence on official duty; but he was soon obliged from
sudden, severe attacks of illness to relinquish preaching. In
1829 his health so'utterly failed that his school was given up,
and a change of climate and entire rest from all mental labor
was decided to be the only chance of recovery, or of life.
The winter of 1829-30 was passed in Savannah, Ga. In June
he returned much benefitted. Physicians, advising him to try
a milder climate than New England, after teaching a year in
Princeton, N. J., he opened a High School for young ladies in

Philadelphia, on an extended and liberal plan, preaching frequently on the Sabbath.   In the midst of great success his
health again failed, and, hoping that a sea life would improve it,
he obtained a chaplaincy in the Navy. In 1841, he joined the
Flag Ship Delaware, and went with the squadron to S. America, where he remained eighteen months, then to the Mediterranean, visiting several important places in Spain, Portugal and
Italy.  During his absence he wrote for the North American,
published in Philadelphia, and his letters were highly appreciated. Nothing beautiful or rare escaped his notice. On his return, after remaining with his family about a year, he was ordered to Pensacola, Fa. Here his duties were very arduous.
It was during the war with Mexico, and the sick were constantly brought to the hospitals, and on the Sabbath the beautiful

menced, and when each day his labors seemed more abundant
and more blessed he was called away to a higher and more glorious life; his faith was triumphant, and he felt that to die was
gain.  At his request a post mortem  examination was made,
and it was found that his protracted sufferings were not occasioned by dyspepsia, but by an unusual disease of the heart.
Tumors had formed within it and had nearly stopped the circulation of the blood. The immediate cause of death was yellow
fever. To the bereaved consort I am indebted for the principal facts contained in the preceding statement, which I could
not well condense. In the Providence Journal an obituary notice of Mr. Alden, written by Gov. Anthony, now U. S. Senator,
was published soon after his death. After reciting several of
the preceding facts, he thus concludes: "Mr. Alden was a fine
scholar, and a man of excellent literary taste; of polished
manners, and of true kindness of heart. As an instructor he
leaves but few equals behind him. His excellence consisted not
only in his singular capacity for imparting knowledge, and impressing it upon the youthful mind, but in his captivating manners, and the confidence and affection which he never failed to

ALDEN MEMORIAL.


Mass. 18 June, 1796. At the age of twenty he became the
subject of deep religious impressions in connection with the
death of his mother, which issued in his hopeful conversion,
public profession of his faith, and the consecration of himself to
the ministry. In Feb. 1818, he entered Brown University at
an advanced standing of six months, and graduated in 1821
with high honors. After graduation he was invited to a tutorship in Columbia College, which he declined, and commenced
his Theological studies at Andover, where he continued until he
had completed the usual course. In July, 1825, he was approbated as a preacher, and on the 29 Sept. ordained at the Old,
South Church, Boston, as a missionary to Indiana. In this service he continued nearly five years, assisting in organizing
churches, establishing and supervising various sabbath schools
in the district to which he was assigned.
In 1830, having returned to visit his friends in New England
he was invited to preach for the people in East Abington, where
his labors as a stated supply were much blessed, and he was ultimately persuaded to become their pastor, being installed 5th
Dec. 1834, and relinquishing, at what he deemed a call of duty,
his cherished purpose of devoting himself to missions in the
west.
In 1843, owing to a failure of his health and the great increase of his labors, he requested a dismission from his people
in E. Abington, which was voted by advice of council June 27.
After a relaxation of several months he returned to his home in
E. Br., preaching occasionally, superintending the public schools,
and making himself generally useful, until the close of the year
1845, when he was requested to visit Newcastle, N. H. He engaged to supply the people there for six months. His labors have
been much blessed and his engagement has been renewed from
time to time, to the mutual satisfaction of all parties, and still
continues. His congregation is both sea-faring and military.
During the late war fifteen hundred officers and soldiers of the
U. S. Army were stationed there. Mr. Alden is still able to

support, and is universally respected.

DR. SETH ALDEN, Caldwell, N. Y., son of Seth, (75) was b.
probably at Shaftsbury, Vt., in 1749; d. at Caldwell, 30 July,
1809. We have no account of his early life, but that he was a
man of some note in his profession is evident from the fact,
that in 1783 he was requested by Col. Ethan Allen to visit his
dau. in consultation with Dr. Hutton, his family physician, at the
distance of some forty miles. From Shaftsbury he removed to
Caldwell, N. Y., where he continued until his death.

at Claremont, N. H., 1865, a. 84.
She was a lady of more than ordinary intelligence and piety,
and took quite a lively interest in the genealogy of the Alden
Family. Upon one of the fly leaves df her old Bible, which
has for years been the companion of her life, we find carefully
pinned the following paragraph cut from a newspaper:
FAMILY MEETINO. A meeting of the descendants of the late Holland Weeks,
of Salisbury, Vt., was held the 22 Sept. 1865. Eighty of the family attended
who were all descendants of John Alden, whose feet first touched Plymouth
Rock. These meetings, have been held occasionally for more than a century.
One of its objects is to keep the Genealogy perfect from the landing of the Pilgrims in New England to the latest posterity. The list is soon to be published
and already amounts to more than four thousand names."
It was the privelege of the author of this memorial to be
present by invitation at that meeting, which was a very pleasant
one, and was adjourned for five years. HOLLAND WEEKS m.

was in the attack on Tobasco, &c. On the coast survey he commanded the steamer Walker for several years after the close of the
Mexican War.    He commanded the steamer "Active" and
schooner "Ewing" on the survey of our Pacific coast from 1851
to 1860. He was promoted to Commander, Sept. 14, 1855.
On the breaking out of the rebellion he volunteered to bring the
"Merrimac" out of Norfolk and was ordered to do so, but the order being revoked, that magnificent ship fell into the hands of the
rebels. He commanded the "' South Carolina" blockading squadron on the coast of Texas in 1861, and the '"Richmond" in Farragut's Fleet at the capture of New Orleans and other engagements on the river above that city. He commanded the "Brooklyn" at the attack on Mobile, and also at the final attack and capture of Fort Fisher. Perhaps no officer in the Navy saw as much
service during the late war. Since the War he has commanded
the steam frigates ' Susquehanna" and " Minnesota" and the Navy Yard at Mace Island, California, from which lie was relieved
in March, 1869, and ordered to duty at the Navy Department,
Washington, as Chief of the Bureau of Navigation, which position he now (Sept. 1869) holds.
He was promoted from Commander to Captain Jan. 2, 1863,
