What was the Mayflower name that you're looking for? I don't see him referred to as a Mayflower descendent in "The 7 Generations" book. Salmon Portland Chase was a descendent of Aquila ...through Ens. Moses...Daniel...Judge Samuel...Dea. Dudley..and Ithamar Chase. His mothers name was Jane Ralston...and the "Generations" says that both her parents were from Scotland.

Scott, this is an amusing article from the Chase Chronicle issue of Jan 1916. THREE BUBBLES TO BE PRICKED 1st. "There were three brothers that came over." 2d. "My ancestors came over in the May flower." 3d. "Some of my ancestors were in the Boston Tea Party." Anyone who has had much to do with genealogy has encountered some or all of the above claims and as a rule there is nothing to substantiate the story. The first claim is easily disposed of by facts. The second is true only in a few cases, for the lists of passengers in the Mayflower is published accurately. The trouble is that in the earlier vessels to this country many persons did come and very worthy people, too. But the Mayflower people can be distinguished with no difficulty. The writer has had people enough stated to him to have been on the Mayflower, to have filled the largest Cunarder, and if we should allow to these claimants the usual amount of baggage and effects, no steamer afloat could have sustained the load. The third statement, about the Boston Tea Party, is gaining ground, but not one in a hundred claims can be justified. We might as well look at our ancestors in the right light. Very few of them were eminent or wonderful men. They were honest, hard working, plain people, who did not come to this country as if they were going to a picnic. It was a serious affair to leave home, and all home ties, and as a rule these, both men and women, looked at life seriously, and fought a good fight for conscience sake. Many of them were narrow minded as we judge people today. We doubt very much if any of us now living would take up the burden and carry it as well as did the strong men who for a principle did what was necessary to establish a community and a government amid a life of daily privations. 60 THE CHASE CHRONICLE I have had to knock over many foolish assertions, but I try to Show that the realities and the truth of history are much grander than to try to make a family name and glory out of statements that will not bear investigation. Many of our published family histories are thus very defective. They either start wrong or run off into claims that cannot bear the light of patient investigation. Only a few months ago, a kinsman was very much vexed because I assured her that Aquila Chase did not come over in the Mayflower.
Hi All, Awhile back on this list people were talking about the location of the Aquila Chase tablet that was donated by John Carroll Chase and members of the Chase Family Association and hung in the NEHGS in Boston. I am sending a link to the First Settlers of Newbury site where you can see a picture of the tablet. I am going to join this society when I get moved back to New England this Fall. I would like very much to be involved in the restoration and preservation of the burial ground. It was a mess when I visited it. And the story they have on the site about the tablet is not entirely correct. They said it was in a crate from 1964 to 1989 when it was donated to the Sons and Daughter of the First Settlers. The tablet was hanging in the lobby of the NEHGS in the early 1970's because I saw it there. I lived just a few doors down from there when I went to nursing school at Mass General. Anyway, here is the link: http://www.firstsettlersofnewbury.org Kathy Caslin kathyc_7@msn.com
Hi, I am checking to see if Salmom P. Chase Secretary of Treasury under Lincoln, and later Cheif Justice, has any Mayflower Ancestry? Thanks, Scott

Hi All, Just wondering if there are any Chases out there with the following surnames: McMaster, Cary,Keep, Manderson. If so, you may well tie in to my Chase line. I figure it never hurts to take a chance! Barb

Hi Pat, If you have some time while in Providence...take the I-95 north past Boston. When you get near Danvers you can stay on 95 or take the more scenic Rte 1 up to Newburyport. You'll need a full day. Newburyport is one of the towns that Aquila Chase and Annie Wheeler were early settlers in. Newburyport itself is worth going to see. It's lovely. If you go to the Historical Society there...they can give you a map...and there is an 18th centruy building that stands I think...at the corner of Federal St and the road that goes along the river. This was the site where Aquila and Annie first lived in Newburyport. The original house is of course gone. They also had a 5 acre planting lot further up in town. I don't have that street address handy. I have things packed away because I , myself, am moving back to New England this Fall. But...if you go up to High St ...and go left on High St... toward Newbury...which is I think Rte 1a....follow it along past the turn on the left for Plum Island...stay on 1a...past the Meeting House on the right...CAUTION: there is a graveyard across from the meeting house...that is NOT the one you want. Keep going...you will see a village green on the right hand side...keep going and looking off to the right....further up the road...you will find the "Old Settlers Burial Ground". There is a sign and a wall and it's all overgrown. It is here that Aquila and Annie are believed to be buried. There is no marker so no one knows for sure....but it's a cool place to go. Then back track to Newburyport...it's only a few miles.....and get on Rte 1...and go over the river and go 5 miles up the road to Hampton. There is a green in the town center...not at the beach...but in the town that was where all the original houses were. They're gone now...but there are markers there. There on the green are rocks with the names of the like 20 families that settled Hampton. There is a rock for the Chase families of Aquila and his brother Thomas. If you get lost ask where the Historical Society is...because it's right at the green. The Hampton Green is also cool because it is the site of a ghost story. There was a woman named Eunice Cole. She is known as the witch of Hampton. She was a kind of cantankerous old lady who fought a lot with her neighbors...and the town folk of Hampton weren't the friendliest lot to begin with...so of course they started accusing her of being a witch. Goody at one point lived out on Island Path near the beach...and made her living selling food to the fisherman as they headed out to sea. Well...some of the fisherman got sick...and Goody got accused of witchcraft because they got sick. There were numerous other accusations...but that was one I found interesting. Goody was in and out of jail for many years. She had no children to protect her and was finally let out. After her husband died, she was named a ward of the town...and the towns people were ordered by the court to to take care of her because she had no family. There was a little bit of justice in that..I think. Anyway, she lived in a shack there at the village green...and when she died ...they were afraid to go in and check on her....and when they finally did.. they dragged her body out...and drove a stake into her heart...to peg her spirit to the earth...and buried her in a shallow grave near the green. No one knows where. But they say her ghost walks the green. :0) And how does she tie into Aquila and Annie? Well...she sold food to the fisherman...one of whom was probably Aquila...because he lived on the bank of the Hampton river almost directly across from Island Path. There is NO evidence to say he or Thomas accused her of anything....and the people who accused Goody...also arrested Aquila for violating the Sabbath...by picking the peas. So it could be that they were both on the bottom end of the pecking order in the village. And...the other thing that ties Goody Cole and Annie....is this. I have a copy of the manifest of the Mary and John. The voyage of 1634/35 records among the passengers..John and Agnes Wheeler...and their 5 children...among whom are David and Annie...and the manifest also lists William and Eunice Cole. So Annie and Goody Cole made the 3 month voyage to America together. So Annie would have known the witch of Hampton. Pretty cool..huh? Kathy Caslin caslin@winco.net

Pat, If you are going to be in Providence, make sure to go by the Rhode Island Historical Society on Hope Street. Wonderful collection - lots of Chace/Chase material. Quaker Records from the late 1600s through the late 1800s from most of New England. In Fall River there is also an Historical Society, but in order to get into the archives you must make an appointment. Good stuff down there. Almost all years of old Fall River city directories. It was fun to look up addresses of folks who used to live there - Miller Chace for example - and go and see if their houses were still standing. Miller's was not, but George Albert Chace's was and others in the area. The Lizzie Borden House in Fall River is worth a look. It is now a bed and breakfast and you can actually stay overnight in the bedroom where Lizzie's stepmother was murdered! The owners also give tours. In Boston, make sure you visit the New England Historical and Genealogical Society on Newbury Street. Great collection - microfilm is on the 4th Floor - Probate Records from all over New England - Birth Records as well. www.rihs.org www.lizzieborden.org www.newenglandancestors.org Cheers, Jeffrey On 7/16/06, Pat Potter <patpotter_5@hotmail.com> wrote: > > Hi, > I am planning a visit to the Rhode Island/Mass area in a couple of weeks, > and was wondering if anyone can tell me how I can locate burial places of > my > Chase ancestors.

Hello Pat, Well, I think I can help you. First of all, my line is also William, William, Joseph, and then goes to Moses who was Job's brother. You can find a family tree I put together some time ago at my website at http://www.chace.demon.nl On the left hand side click on Joseph Chace Family Tree. You will find your Job and Jonathan as well. Cromwell was Mary Chase's father. She married Miller Chace who was the half-brother of Elijah Cornell, father of Ezra Cornell. Sibbel Robinson lived with Miller and Mary Chace for quite some time when she was a widow. She lived into her 90s. You will find some of your Chaces buried in Fall River at the Oak Grove Cemetery. Miller Chace and a lot of the Chace family are buried there. Cromwell Chace is buried there and I have a photograph of his gravestone that I have attached to this email. Also, you will find Lizzie Borden buried there. Anyway, I have a copy of Joseph Chase's will and it lists Job as one of his sons. Perhaps you are interested in it. I can probably help you more. I will have to look at my records. I don't think I have any copies of letters of Cromwell, but I do have some letters written by his daughter Mary who would be your great great great aunt. Cromwell was the uncle of Samuel Buffington Chace who married Elizabeth Buffum. They were quite famous for their abolishionist activities and were part of the Underground Railroad. There is a bust of Elizabeth Buffum Chace on the second floor of the Capitol Building in Providence. She is considered "The Conscience of Rhode Island." Samuel and Elizabeth are buried in Swan Point Cemetery in Providence. There is also the North Burial Ground in Providence and that is where my great great great grandmother Rebecca Chace and my great great grandmother Lucretia Chace are buried. Lucretia was Ezra Cornell's sister. By the way, you can find a photograph of Miller Chace and Mary Chace and family at my website as well, look under Chace Family Photos - theirs is the first one. Take a look around, you will probably find some other interesting pieces of information, especially in the Chace and Cornell Family Letters section. There are several by Miller and Mary to be found there and they reference a lot of the family members. If I remember correctly, Miller mentions Job Chace and I think Jonathan quite a number of times. There a references to the Earle family as well. Hmmm, let's see, that should be enough to get you started. I will see what else I can find. But, it would be best if you asked me specific questions, otherwise I like to ramble on. Cheers, Jeffrey Chace http://www.chace.demon.nl
Thankyou Jeffrey, As a matter of fact, I had just been browsing your website before posting my request. I had gone straight to Joseph Chace's line and was touched by the heroic efforts of Samuel and Elizabeth Chace. Interesting that I have a great great great aunt Mary, and a great aunt Mary Chase still living. It is for her, that I have been working on the family tree and would like to make a gift of it to her next July on her 100th birthday. I will browse your site more and will hopefully come up with a plan for my visit. Thankyou for the photo.

Who are your Chases? Perhaps I can help. I have been to several cemeteries in Massachusetts and Rhode Island and know where you can find some cemetery listings. Give me names, dates, locations etc. Cheers, Jeffrey Chave On 7/16/06, Pat Potter <patpotter_5@hotmail.com> wrote: > > Hi, > I am planning a visit to the Rhode Island/Mass area in a couple of weeks, > and was wondering if anyone can tell me how I can locate burial places of > my > Chase ancestors.
