    Notes:

    Excerpt from "History and Genealogies of the Hammond Families in America Vol. 2":

    He was the founder of the great iron industry at Crown Point, N. Y., and was also interested in the greatest lumber business in Northern New York. He started in life with very poor health and only a few hundred dollars in money, but by industry and great foresight accumulated a large fortune. The iron from which the "Monitor" was built was taken from his mines, as was also the ore from which was made the first Bessemer steel ever manufactured in the United States.

    He was a Whig, and afterwards a Republican in politics. His political convictions were very strong, and he was an active worker in his party, but he never held any office except postmaster, which office he held many years. At the breaking out of the civil war he advanced the money to purchase all the horses for Co. H, 5th N. Y. Cavalry, and took an active interest in organizing the company. After the close of the war he erected a beautiful monument at a cost of about $6,000 in the Park at Crown Point, bearing the inscription, "To the memory of the heroic volunteers of Crown Point, who gave their lives as a sacrifice for their country and humanity in suppression of the great rebellion of 1861-66, this monument is erected by their grateful fellow-citizen, C. F. Hammond."

    At his death he left his homestead in Crown Point to the town for a chapel and library. He was never a member of any religeous denomination, but was a regular church attendant, and much interested in all kinds of practical Christian work. He was a strong temperance man and did much effective work against the evils of intemperance.

    Charles married Jane RENNE on 13 Feb 1825 in Crown Point, New York. Jane was born on 17 Jan 1805 in Cairo, Greene County, New York; died on 28 Aug 1882 in Crown Point, New York. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Notes:

    Excerpt from "History and Genealogies of the Hammond Families in America Vol. 2":

    He went to Crown Point, on arriving at his majority and purchased an interest in the firm of C. F. Hammond & Co., of which he soon became one of the most active members. He was a straightforward upright business man, fond of society, hospitable and charitable. An ardent lover of music and of the beautiful in nature, but of a rather modest and retiring disposition. He was one of the early Republicans and exerted so great an influence in the town that the vote stood 450 for Fremont to 40 for Buchanan. He was not willing to hold office but was once elected to the New York Legislature in spite of himself, having been nominated during his absence and elected in the face of his positive declination to be a candidate. He built and occupied the house in Crown Point since owned and occupied by Edwin S. Bogue. He died very suddenly of bilious pneumonia, leaving a large property which was divided among a large number of legal heirs.

    The Elizabethtown, (N. Y.) Post, of Jan. 8, 1858, in a long obituary notice said of him: "The Prosperity of a large community is greatly owing to the kindness and judicious assistance of John C. Hammond, and many can attribute their success and present prosperity to the aid so freely rendered by him. He was quiet, genial, gentlemanly (???) a model citizen in all respects, and he will be more missed by all, rich and poor, high and low, learned and ignorant, good and bad, than any other within our knowledge." He had no children but his niece Lovisa A. Hammond, daughter of his brother, German, and Sarah E. Watson, who married J. W. McVine, of Colton, N. Y., lived in his family for many years and filled the place of daughters to him.

    John married Mary M. SMITH on 27 Sep 1838. Mary died on 02 Jul 1841. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Family/Spouse: Nancy SMITH. Nancy was born in 1817; died on 08 Aug 1862. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
