9751 Stephen Peckham lived in Dartmouth, Mass., to which place he removed from Rode Island, his birthplace. He died 1724, April 23. he married, probably before leaving Newport, Mary ? While there is not proof concerning the identity of this Mary, some of the descendants of Stephen have concluded, from a number of suppositions based upon family tradition, that she was a daughter of Captain Seth Pope of Plymouth colony. However this may be, the families of Peckham who were descended from this Stephen and Mary, the Hathaways and Popes, intermarried through several generations, as will be seen from the records, and they occupied a portion of what is now the town of Westport until they were no numerous that the locality was known as the Peckham and Hathaway neighborhood.

Stephen Peckham was one of the original Proprietors of East Greenwich, R.I., in 1677. In January, 1679, he also had a grant of land in the Narragansett, though he probably never went there. 1679, Dec. 9, he bought from Captain Seth Pope a one quarter share right in Dartmouth, mass. The original Proprietors of this territory lived in Plymouth, Mass. It comprised New Bedford, Fairhaven, Westport, and the present town of Dartmouth. Previous to the Revolution the district on the west side of the Acushnet River, between Clarke's Point and the "Head of the River," was occupied by a few substantial farmers in the following order: from the Point, north, Benjamin Allen; Joseph Russell, Senior; Joseph Russell, Junior; Manassah Kempton; Samuel Willis; Stephen Peckham. The farm of Stephen Peckham extended from the south side of what is now Linden Street, northward to within the limits of what is now New Bedford. His name is among those of a list of Proprietors to whom a confirmatory deed was given by Governor William Bradford, 1694, Nov. 12. The inventory of the property of Stephen Peckham, taken in 1724, amount to L1,807.5s.

9753 Stephen served in King Philip's War at the time of the Great Swamp fight, and was one of the soldiers who shared in the Voluntown grant made by the State in 1696. Was Probably the Quartermaster for the Connecticut troops. On May 18, 1676, the Colonial Council authroized him to sell arms in his possession in part payment for his services. Minor's Diary, December 15, 1675 says: "Concticut Armie Set forth from mr. Richardsons," and Jun, 1676, "Thursday, the 15, wee were to meet all the soldiers at steeven Richardson house.: Was imprisoned by Rhode Island in the summer of 1680. Presented a claim to the General Court for damages. In 1687, he was a representative from Stonington to the General Court.

Niles's History is authority for the statement that in July 1689, "Stephen Richardson shot dead onthe spot one William Trimming, a notorious English decoy in the service of the French privateers." Trimming had secreted himself in a house on Fisher's Island, and Richardson, with sixteen other men, went there to capture him. He was censured by some for his action, as they wanted to take him alive.

9756 Stephen was one of the founders of Bristol and its Deputy in 1685, 1686 and 1690; and its Selectman in 1689 and 1690. Stephen was the first Recorder of Deeds for Bristol County. Stephen died intestate. BURTON, Stephen (I81869)
 
9757 Stephen's will was made, signed, and witnessed in Little Compton on 1 December 1808. Son Stephen Jr. was named executor and ordered to pay for the care of the widow Margaret for the remainder of her life unless she remarried, and likewise to provide for his brother Peleg for so long as he remained non compos mentis. The support to be provided for Margaret by their son Stephen Jr. was in lieu of her "right of dowery of my estate."

Stephen Brownell Sr's 1820 household in Little Compton included two men and one woman, all of ages fitting Stephen Sr., his wife Margaret, and their unfortunate son Peleg.

Stephen Brownell Jr.'s 1830 household in Little Compton totaled eight inhabitants including himself, his wife Abigail, their children, and a man of appropriate age to be his brother Peleg, but no woman of his mother Margaret's age. Given the care order in Stephen Sr.'s will, it seems very likely that Margaret and Peleg would have remained in Little Compton and lived with the family of son Stephen Jr. Margaret probably died in Little Compton, between 1822 (when her husband died) and 1830.

STEVENS

Theodore H. Stevens was born in Albion township, Howard county, Iowa, in the year 1871. He was united in marriage to Miss Ida Slawson on March 4, 1895. They established their home on the Slawson homestead, one and a half miles south of Florenceville.

Four children were born to them, all of whom survive him with his wife.

He was adopted into the Granger Camp of the Modern Woodmen of America in 1897, taking out $1000 insurance in favor of Mrs. Stevens. At the time of his decease he was one of the managers of the Camp for the current year.

Two weeks ago he was taken seriously ill with appendicitis. An operation was decided upon but the rapid progress of the disease made it impossible. No expense was spared to get the opinion of the best physicians in the county. Several consultations were held and all agreed with the treatment prescribed by Dr. C. A. Plummer, who had charge of the case to the end. He rapidly grew worse until Sunday, Jan. 10, 1904, when death relieved his sufferings and he passed into the great beyond. He leaves five brothers and two sisters to mourn his departure.
The funeral services were held on Wednesday, January 13th. They were in charge of the Granger Camp M. W. A. About thirty members marched in procession from their hall to his late home. The ritual ceremony was carefully carried out by Venerable Consul James Grant, assisted by the other officers. A number of members from neighboring camps had gathered at the house. These were arranged in the procession by Captain S. C. Twamley, which marched back to the M. E. church at (illegible) preceding the hearse. The services at the church were conducted by Rev. W.E. Thompson, venerable consul of Harmony Camp M.W.A., assisted by the choir. Ven. Consul Grant and Master of Ceremonies, B. Lange had seats on the platform. The church was crowded to the doors, many people not being able to gain admittance. The sermon was preached from the text 'Our bones are scattered at the grave's mouth, as when cutteth and cleaneth wood upon the earth,' Psalm 141.7. Mr. Stevens was considered by all who were acquainted with him to be a kind hearted husband and industrious thrifty farmer, a good neighbor who was always ready to assist anybody who might be in need. He was well known throughout county and will be missed most by those who knew him best.
The PLAIN DEALER plus with their many friends extending heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved relatives and friends.

9774 SUDDEN DEATH

R. L. Slosson, of Geneva, Found Dead in His Bed at the Powers

Saturday night a gentleman apparently about 40 years of age registered at the Powers hotel as "R. L. SLOSSON, Geneva, N. Y."

He was given a room on the fourth floor and was seen about the hotel several times on Sunday. The clerk says that he was conversing with him at 5 o'clock and that Mr. SLOSSON went upstairs in the elevator. That was the last time he was seen alive.

Yesterday morning the chambermaid tried to get into the room but could not, as the door was locked. As it is not unusual for guests who come in late to sleep until 11 or 12 o'clock, she thought no more of it.

At 7:30 o'clock last evening she again tried to open the door and found it locked as before. Her suspicions became aroused and she notified the clerk, who sent Nelson CORNELL, the porter, up to the room. The porter climbed into the room through the transom and lighting a match saw Mr. SLOSSON was in bed. On going over to him he attempted to waken him. Then he saw that the man was dead. The porter did not stop to make any further inquiries, but opened the door and got out in double quick time.

Coroner KLEINDIENST was notified, and upon his arrival ordered the body taken to Jeffrey's undertaking rooms. Mr. SLOSSON, when found, was lying on his back with his hands folded across his chest, and the theory is that he died of heart disease or apoplexy. There was nothing to suggest suicide and it is doubtful whether the coroner will order an autopsy. The coroner took possession of Mr. SLOSSON'S effects, which consisted of a gold watch and some $20 in money.

Mr. SLOSSON was a wealthy nurseryman and farmer, owning a large amount of property in the suburbs of Geneva.

9778 Supervisor E. James Ham of this city was the victim of a fatal accident last Sunday afternoon, resulting in his death on Tuesday evening. He and his three sons, Birchard, Mason and Wesley, decided to drive out to his farm near Brownville after dinner and were on their way when the accident occurred. They drove north of the M. J. Loftus corner, just west of New Haven, and were perhaps three of four miles north of that place when the car struck a bump.
The rifle, a 22 caliber with a special bullet therein, was across Mr. Ham's lap, though on safety, and the trigger must have caught on something as the gun was discharged, the bullet entering his abdomen just a little to the left, penetrating his bowels four times, traveling in an upward direction and coming out the right side. His son Mason was driving the car and they drove back home as soon as possible. Dr. Glenn Sheldon of Kansas City, who had been called here for other operations, was secured as soon as possible and operated on Mr. Ham.
He got through Sunday night in apparently excellent shape, but the following night took a decided turn for the worse and during the day Tuesday, it was apparent he was making a losing fight for life, death coming between 11 and 12 o'clock that night.
Ernest James Ham was born Feb. 16, 1873, at Chedder, Somersetshire, England, and received his education in that country. When 18 years of age he came direct from that place to Osage, borrowing the money with which to make the journey. He was an example of what thrift and industry will accomplish for a "four square" young man, as he accumulated considerable property in this county. He was serving his first term as a member of the board of supervisors and had gained a reputation for square dealing in that office.
He worked on a farm until his marriage to Miss Mary Slawson on Jan. 19, 1897.
They then purchasing a farm. Five years ago he retired from active farm duties and purchased a home in this city. He is survived by his devoted wife and four sons; Roland of San Diego, Calif., and the three named above. One young son, Wayne passed away about four years ago. Two brothers and two sisters survive him in his native land across the sea. The passing of a good citizen such as Mr. Ham is indeed regrettable and many friends will sympathize with his family in their irreparable loss.
Funeral service will be conducted at the home at 3 o'clock tomorrow afternoon by Rev. Walker, after which the mortal remains will be laid to rest in Osage cemetery, the Odd Fellows, of which order he was a member, having charge at the grave. He was also a member of the Modern Woodmen.
His son Roland was notified of the accident soon after it occurred and started for Osage as soon as possible and will no doubt be here for the last sad rites.

He was a farmer and his name appears in the first transaction on Stamford land records, vol. 2, p. 454, date of 10 Dec. 1760.

 
FANCHER, Sylvanus (I87607)
 
9791 Sylvanus R Meigs was the son of Church Meigs and Nancy Paddleford. In 1855 the family left New England and settled at Malcolm, Iowa. Sylvanus married Georgianna Bates in Malcomb in Sept of 1861.

When the Civil War broke out, Sylvanus enlisted at the age of 22 on 16 Sept 1861. On 23 Nov 1861 he enlisted in Co E 4th Iowa Cavalry. Sylvanus mustered out as a private on 8 Aug 1865 at Atlanta, Georgia. His brother-in-law, Norman Bates, served with him.

Sylvanus returned to Malcom, Iowa. Georgianna and Sylvanus raised their family of six children: Simeon, Bessie, Zellah, Sylvester, Frank, and Austin. In 1882 Sylvanus and his brother-in-law, Norman Bates, left their families to find a homestead location in the Dakota Territory. After filing they sent for their families. Sylvanus was appointed Assessor in 1885 and elected Sheriff of Hyde County in 1886. He held the office for 6 years. He was again elected Sheriff in 1906 and held the office until his death in 1908.

Georgianna died three years after her husband. Norman and family later moved to California.
 
MEIGS, Sylvanus Randall (I39187)
 
9792 Sylvester is believed to have inherited the homestead of his father. Ally, in his book entitled "Battle of Groton Heights and its Centennial," states that Sylvester Walworth was a volunteer living at that time on the north side of Fort Hill. This seems to fix Sylvester as the inheritor of the old Walworth farm house on or behind Fort Hill, and for many years we find his children grouped together on these lands of their father and grandfather. Some of this land even now (1962) remains in the possession of Sylvester's descendant, Mrs. George Middleton, of Quoketaug, Old Mystic, Conn.

Sylvester was killed at the storming of Fort Griswold by the British under Arnold. He was one of the garrison fatally wounded in the fight and with other prisoners thrown into an ammunition wagon and rolled down the hill. The wagon was saved from running into the River Thames by jarring against a tree. The prisoners, thirty-five in number, including Sylvester Walworth, were taken into the house of Ebenezer Avery nearby. There, Sylvester's wife came to see him, only to find him dead. The grave of the martyred soldier is in the Ledyard Cemetery, but like those of others, who perished with him, unmarked by a tombstone. However, his name appears, with the others, on a monument erected near the site of the Fort. 
WALWORTH, Sylvester (I72934)
 
9793 Sylvester was the son of Samuel Ellenwood and Amelia Doty, the husband of Lucy Angeline Delano, who is buried nearby. Three of their sons, Samuel Lewis, Aldin O., and Warren S., died young and are buried nearby.
'His last words, "Let me rest." The lips may murmur as they will. The heart beseeching pray. We cannot change God's might plan which gives each life its day. How long we live not years but actions tell. The man lives twice who lives the first life well.' (As transcribed by Catherine Sams, Dunham Township Cemeteries, 1995.)
