That is very interesting. My husband, a descendant of Gov. Bradford and possibly of John Clark, pilot of the Mayflower, doesn't like to think that the Pilgrims were so far off course as to mistake Massachusetts for Virginia! Arlys LaFehr

Chapter V The Young Philander Continued So far as this change affected young Philander, who was then in his ninetieth year and who, as the result of his newly acquired knowledge of the Prayer Book, had become ardently desirous of entering the ministry when qualified, the question who had the divine right and authority to ordain him, thereby giving him apostolic commission to preach and administer the Sacraments, became to him a matter of great consequence. At this early period (1793-94) there were two clergymen of the Church who at rare intervals visited Bethel (Vermont) and Cornish (New Hampshire), one of whom was the Rev. J. C. Ogden, a man of talent and able to preach well. He must have taken much interest in the promising young student at Dartmouth, for he visited him in his room, and by his ardent words and cheerful, self-denying zeal greatly impressed the heart of the growing boy. Books in those days were worth their weight in gold. An English book, written by Jones of Nayland, had been published in England and somehow a few copies had been brought to Vermont. It was an essay on the Church of England, I assume), and the Rev. Mr. Ogden was so desirous of bringing this subject before his people that he determined to re-publish in this country. He had saved a little money with which to buy an overcoat, so much needed in that cold climate, but he could pay the printer with this money and "turn his old overcoat to keep himself decent." The printer agreed to publish this little essay, but for the money given, could only print it in 16mo (?), making a "short, thick, square" volume; but it "told what the world is, what the Church of God is, how to find the latter, and how to know the nature of the other." ......... Another clergyman was the Rev. Bethuel Chittenden, brother of the Governor of Vermont at that time. Hearing that there were a few churchmen in Bethel, Vermont, and in Cornish, New Hampshire, he came over the Green Mountains to visit these few scattered members of the fold. It was no easy journey to cross the Green Mountains then; the distance was not great from Rutland, in Vermont to Bethel, but the dark mountain track was all the way literally a howling wilderness, inhabited in its bleak and lonely fastnesses only by bears and wolves. At this time young Philander taught school in Bethel, when it was possible to leave his studies at Dartmouth, and also acted as lay -reader in Bethel and Cornish. The arrival of the Rev. Bethuel Chittenden at either place was a Godsend to these earnest people. ........ Bishop Chase says in a lettter to Bishop Hopkins almost fifty years after: "It was from this man that I received my first Communion,........ "The poverty and humble clothing of this Ambassador of Christ in no way derogated from the authority he had received....." In the "Reminiscences" is there further proof of the youth's feelings upon this, to him and his family, the most important event of their lives: "Never will the impressions made by the solemnity of this divinely appointed means of grace be obliterated from my mind." It added to his joy and comfort that his father and mother, his uncle, his sisters and brothers, and other relatives were kneeling at his side, and although many of them had been Congregationalist, yet they were one with him now in Christian love. From that day he seemed "strengthened and refreshed" to go on his way. By the advice of the clergy above named, he read prayers and printed sermon in Hatland and Bethel , Vermont, and in Cornish, New Hampshire. He says further: "the conformists to the Church in all three places were considerable in number, particularly in Bethel, thus laying the foundation of what was for many years the largest parish in the diocese." These efforts to build up the primitive Church of God were made when the young man was a student, and principally in time of vacation and when visiting his friends on Sundays. He was graduated from Dartmouth with the degree of A.B., 1795 End Chapter V Harriet M. Chase hatchase@uswest.net
Chapter V THE YOUNG PHILANDER Philander, at the age of fifteen, was a happy, healthy boy, handsome in person, accustomed to all the merry sports of youth, and no doubt guarded by his elders and parents from all unusual care and labors as the youngest of their flock. He says, in his "Reminiscences", that up to this time, he had decided preference for the life of a farmer. His father, like patriarchs of old, had with children "fed his flock by the side of living waters in green pastures" for many years, till now he was old and gray-headed. Most of his children had left him for homes of their own. The thought of such a separation was painful Philander's youthful heart, and for a time he was indulged in the pleasing dreams of being the favored one who should occupy the home farm and minister to the wants of his parents in their declining years. Deacon Chase, and his wife were born and bred in the Puritan faith, but both had kindly, generous natures which disarmed the rigid laws and practices that prevailed in those early days of most of their terrors. The children in their sylvan home in the wild woods, a far from the temptations of large towns, led an innocent life, drinking in with their breath the sweet influences of nature. Deacon Chase must have seen that his youngest boy had within him, if rightly trained, that which might make him "a leader of men," and although his heart would fain keep the child with him for the comfort of his old age, his anxiety that Philander, the last of his sons, "should become a minister of the Gospel" prevailed over his natural affection for the child so precious to both parents. Indeed, it was the constant prayer of these good people that God would incline the heart of the child in this way. As the four sons who had been educated at Dartmouth had all entered upon life in other professions, this desire was very near their hearts. Their prayers were answered in a painful way. Young Philander, while on a visit to his sister in Bethel (Vermont), met with a serious accident, which crippled him for nearly a year, and soon after this he had the misfortune to break his leg, from which he suffered for many weeks. His father took this opportunity to tell his son that this very great trial might be the means of showing him the way of duty, and that he should immediately upon recovery begin his studies preparatory for entering college. He did not add "for the ministry, " but the son knew that this was implied. It seems that obedience to parents was the rule in this family. The boy's preference had evidently been adverse to this plan, but he yielded to the wiser judgment and unselfish sacrifice of his father and mother. The work of hard study was at once begun, and in less than a year this boy passed his examinations. His brothers were his tutors, and they must have been born teachers, for in the fall of 1791 Philander entered Dartmouth. In the year 1793-94, while a member of the sophomore and junior classes, young Philander happened to find a "Book of Common Prayer" It was a rare book in those days, as every churchman now knows; so soon after the Revolution the Episcopal Church and its members were but a "feeble folk" in numbers, and less in influence. The circumstance, trifling as it seemed, was really a very important event, leading to great changes not only in Philander's life, but in the lives of many others. Instead of carelessly looking over the book over and throwing it aside, he studied it, he compared it with the Word of God, and the more he examined it, the more forcibly its beauties appealed to his sense of what the true way of worship. He communicated these thoughts to his family and friends. This was evidently a subject that enlisted all the minds of this wonderfully intelligent family. To them the truth was the great desire of their hearts --- something stable, sure, in worship and belief. This Prayer Book seemed to them, upon comparing it with their former mode of worship, as a light to guide them into the paths of peace and order. "These considerations concerning the liturgy of the Church, joined to her well-authenticated claim's to an apostolic constitution in her ministry, were among the principle reasons which induced so many of the relatives to conform to the Episcopal Church," Instead of repairing the meeting house where his father and grandfather officiated as Congregational deacons, they decided to pull it down and erect in its place an Episcopal Church. This was effected in great harmony; not a voice was raised against the plan in the neighborhood. ( If I am not mistaken; there is also an accounting of this in the "CHASE Chronicles") This is certainly a most remarkable event. It is doubtful if anything like it ever occurred before or since. That a mere youth should have brought this about among his relations so accustomed to Congregational worship is indeed wonderful, but that the whole neighborhood should have consented to this great change seems next to impossible. However, there stands the church today, in which divine service is still held.

Well, not necessarily killed. But it was hazardous living on the frontier before the end of the American Revolution. In the 1750s, there was the French war with the British, in which many settlers were kidnapped and taken to Canada to be ransomed. Some did die en route, but many returned. And then during the Revolutionary War, native Americans sided with one side or the other, so the attacks continued by either or both Indians and British Canadians. It just wasn't worth the hazard to many families to settle permanently until hostilities had more or less ceased in northern New England.

While we're on the subject of Fort No. 4, I am looking for any descendants of Peter Labaree, an early settler of the fort, who was one of the people kidnapped by the Indians in 1756(?) and taken to Canada along with Virginia Johnson, who gave birth to a baby en route and called her Captive Johnson.

I am following both Ct Valley and Maine lines and find that they get into those areas permanently about the same time. The earlier ones got killed off by Indians, so I assume that the possibility of being scalped was a limiting factor. I also find that the ones who escaped that fate popped back from western MA to CT and from ME to NH and MA. Most of the later ones followed the same routes. Abby
For any who might know; while reading the history of Phillander Chases family I am struck by the relative "late" settlement of the CRV. I have some ancestors who were married in Lebanon in 1791 and whose children were born even farther up the valey,in Orford, in 1792. Would this be considered very early or were these areas already pretty well populated by this time? (I haven't had time to find the books so kindly suggested in response to my earlier question). Would I be mistaken to assume that they probably came up the river and probably from Mass. What would the likelihod be that they might have come from Maine? Ken Roberts
