He was buried in Warwick Cemetery, Warwick, Franklin, Massachusetts. A History of the Churches & Ministers and of Franklin Association, Franklin County, Mass. by Rev. Theophilus Packard, Jr., Published by S.K. Whipple and Company, 100 Washington Street, Boston, Mass. 1854. p. 311. He was the sixth in descent from Rev. Henry Smith, who came from England and settled in Wethersfield, Ct. in 1641. There is a tradition, on which much reliance can be placed, that Rev. H. Smith had a son born while on the passage to this country, and from that circumstance he called his name Preserved, a name that had been tetaine in the line of his descendants. Rev. Preserved Smith was ordained as the first pastor of this Church (Rowe), Nov. 21, 1787, and Rev. Robert Hubbard of Shelburne preached the sermon; and, after a ministry of about sixteen years and a half, he was dismissed, May 30, 1804; and was resettled as pastor of this church, Dec. 2, 1812, and Rev. Jonathan Grout of Hawley preached the sermon, which was published; and after an additional ministry of about twenty years requested a release from pastoral service, March 10, 1832, but was never regularly dismissed by a council. Both periods of his ministry in Rowe amounted to about thirty-six years. After leaving Rowe the first time, Mr. Smith was settled as pastor of two churches in Mendon, October 2, 1805, and was dismissed from there, Oct. 20, 1812. "His early education was much neglected. The schools at that period were imperfectly taught, and only a few weeks during the year. Dilworth's spelling book, and the Psalter, being the principal books used in the primary stages of education. He early discovered a thirst for knowledge; read the books that came in his way, and, when in the field at work, he would seize every leisure moment in exercising himself in arithmetic by the use of a piece of chalk on a log, or a piece of bark It was at that early period that he met with a Latin grammar. it greatly excited his curiosity, and he resolved from that hour, that, if his life were spared him, he would acquire the knowledge of the language, of which that little elementary work was the key. When the revolutionary war commenced, he was sixteen years of age. He immediately entered the army and served five campaigns a soldier in the militia department. He was not called into any actual engagement, but once participated in a skirmish when the army of General Gates and that of General Burgoyne lay side by side on the banks of the Hudson. In 1825, when in company with a friend, he reviewed the ground which were the scences of the most interesting events during the Revolution, and saw the identical pine tree which sheltered him from the balls of the enemy, which lay concealed behind a fortification. The recognition of this old friend, after a lapse of forty-eight years, to which he had been probably indebted for the preservation of his life, deeply affected him. Leaving the army when he was nineteen years of age, he bought his time, as it is called, of his father, and set out in the world for himself, with nothing to begin with save his hands and his health, and blessed with a constitution unusually firm and inured to hardship. He purchased a lot of land, and on this he commenced his labors for himself. With the proceeds of the first crop of grain he was enabled to pay for the purchase, then having an opportunity to sell it at a handsome advance, he was not long in deciding what to do. He immediately set about ful-filling the desire prompted several years before by the Latin grammar already alluded to. He commenced the study of the language with reference to preparation for college under the instructio n of Rev. Mr. Hubbard of Shelburne. He preparation was made partly with this gentleman, and partly under the instruction of Rev. Rm. Murdock of Pawlet, Vt." He graduated at Brown in 1786; and studied theology under the instruction of Rev. John Emerson of Conway; was licensed by the Hampshire Association in the spring of 1878. Becoming a Unitarian, Mr. Smith withdrew from Franklin Association, Feb. 9, 1821. He was the first person from Ashfield who obtained a collegiate education. He published two Masonic discourses, and the farewell sermon he preached at Rowe in 1804. After his dismission from Rowe the second time, Mr. Smith lived with his son, who was then pastor of the Unitarian Church in Warwick, and died at Warwick, August 15, 1834. The following scriptural epitaph is inscribed on his gravestone in he burial ground in Warwick: "Remember them who have spoken unto you the work of God, whoe faith follow, considering the end of their conversation.

My great great grandmother was Elizabeth Osborne born 2/19/1797, died 8/19/1865both in Blandford Ma. She was married to Prentice Brown Cook. Could this help? I don't have any other info on her yet as I've been studying Brown, Cook, Clark, Tower, Webster, Sornborger etc etc. There are many Osbornes in the cemetary across from the Old White Church in Blandford. Have you been there? I live in Longmeadow so it seems that we are neighbors--perhaps also cousins? Do you have any other info on Elizabeth?

Does anyone on the list have access to records of the Baptist church for early years in Connecticut? The obit of our George Clinton GRANT b 1812 shows that he lies in a Baptist churchyard cemetery in Monmouth Co and we are presuming that the religion practiced by his family would be Baptist. Any clues? Pat Grant in Oregon [email protected]

Good Morning, I thought the following information [from the NEHGS - New England Historical Genealogical Society Newsletter] might be of interest to many of you. It outlines which Vermont town histories have been published and the family genealogies they contain. Karima ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Vermont Genealogies in Vermont Town Histories, Part One by Scott Andrew Bartley "The focus of this article is to determine what Vermont town histories have been published, while listing only the ones that include a genealogical section. The first place to look for town histories is T. D. Seymour Bassett's Vermont, A Bibliography of Its History (Hanover, N.H., 1981, reprint 1983), which is volume four of the Bibliographies of New England History series. Additions can be found later in the series with volumes eight (1989) and nine (1995). The best resource for genealogical content is Vermontiana collector and bibliographer John A. Leppman's A Bibliography for Vermont Genealogy (St. Albans, VT, 2000). There have been several town histories published since Leppman's work and these are covered in this article, which includes all published histories to 2002. The entries below are in alphabetical order by town. Following the citation for each town history is an alphabetical list of all surnames included in the history. A future installment will rearrange the material and provide a comprehensive surname index to all published Vermont town histories that feature a genealogical section."

Good Morning, I thought the following might be of interest to some of you. Enjoy! Karima ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Vital Records of Windham, N.H., Now Online The Nesmith Library in the town of Windham, New Hampshire, has made all of the town's vital records from 1887 to the present available online. These birth, marriage, and death records were compiled from the town's annual reports and the entries are listed alphabetically. Genealogists will be pleased to discover that the death records cover not only those who died in Windham but also town residents who died outside of the town. This database was compiled by Nesmith Library volunteer Bruce Mathewson.

Any HUBBARD connections to a Charity HUBBARD who married Joshua ARTHUR of Smithtown, L.I.? Don't have any dates for Charity, but she and Joshua were married at Huntington, Suffolk Co., NY, in 1748 - at the First Church in Huntington. A long shot, I know... Thanks. Susan
