From James Stevenson [jsp@jspub.com] on Sat 3/28/98 3:09 PM

I have a letter by a Dr. Reuben Hatch to a family member (brother in law of Hatch) in Bradford, VT which describes the trip with James Wilson. I will copy and paste the letter below:

BACKGROUND
A descendant of a Dr. Rueben Hatch passed a copy of this letter to the Stevenson family of Perry, in Pike County Ill, in the 1980s, knowing that they were descended from the Captain James Wilson who is mentioned in the letter. Dr. Rueben Hatch was involved in Hillsborough New Hampshire politics with James Wilson born 1770, father of this James Wilson, and Benjamin Pierce, Governor of New Hampshire, father of President Franklin Pierce. This correspondence is from Dr. Hatch to his family which describes the trip from Hillsborough, New Hampshire to Griggsville, Pike County, Illinois in 1835. Here is the typescript of that letter to his brother-in-law Lemuel Stratten of Bradford, (NH or VT?).

LETTER TO Lemuel Stratten:
FROM - Griggsville, Pike County, Illinois
March 14, 1836

Dear Sir:
On the 8th of October I, with my family in conjunction with one other family, Captain James Wilson of Washington, and two other single persons, making in the whole number 20 persons, set out upon an expedition of exchange of countries, the East for the West. We were on our way 89 days, a distance of 1550 miles. We were at least six weeks too late in the season. We left Hillsborough, passing on through Antrim, crossed the Connecticut river at Bellows Falls; then to Chester, Manchester, Arlington and crossed the North River at Shylersville; then at the north of Chyuga Lake to Utica, Rochester, Buffalo, and on the south side of Lake Erie to Cleveland, Ohio; thence to Columbus, Dayton and Cincinnati. Three miles west of Dayton we made our first stop for rest, a distance of 1100 miles, and on the forty-third day of our journey. The travelling had by this time become very bad in consequence of rain and so much Western travel. At Green castle we thought best for me with the family and baggage to go by water. So I with 15 in number took the canal at Dayton for Cincinnati, where we took the steamboat for St. Louis. At Paducah, Kentucky our Captain was informed that boats could not ascend the Mississippi river on account of ice. There we were, 400 miles from our homes and about the same distance from our teams, which were on their passage by land! I concluded to return 150 miles, to Shawneetown, Ill. and I here immediately wrote to my boys to come after us with the teams. I was fortunate enough to hire two rooms, into which we moved and set up housekeeping and waited twenty-four days. Then Captain Wilson arrived and said that we must stay there through the winter or pass on by water, as the river had then become open again. So we set out for St. Louis, where we stayed four days, and then set off on the Illinois River and landed at Phillip's Ferry, four miles from our new home. My boys were at the Ferry with a 4-horse team, so we loaded there and arrived home about 2 p.m. on the seventh of January. We all bore the journey with no sickness to hinder us an hour. Our teams rather gained in flesh. This country is fine, but new, but fast gaining in settlement. Society, I think, is much better than at the East.

Yours, etc. Reuben Hatch.
