ZECHARIAH FIELD (John, John, Richard, William, William, Thomas, Thomas, John, Thomas, Roger), b. East Ardsley, Yorkshire, England, in 1596; m. about 1641, Mary ___. She d. about 1670. He d. June 30, 1666. Res. Dorchester, Mass., in 1629; Hartford, Conn., in 1636; Northampton, in 1659, and Hatfield, Mass., in 1663.

Zechariah Field, son of John, and grandson of John Field, the astronomer, born in East Ardsley, in the West Riding of Yorkshire. England, about 1600. He probably came to New England through Wales, and sailed from Bristol, and arrived in Boston in 1629, and settled in Dorchester.

In 1636 a large number of English emigrants, among whom was Zechariah Field, removed from Cambridge, Dorchester and Watertown to Hartford, Windsor and Wethersfield, Conn. He settled in Hartford; his residence was upon Sentinel Hill, near the present north end of main street. At this time he was still in the vigor of manhood, and was one of the forty-two men furnished by Hartford to take part in the Pequod war.

In venturing thus far toward the frontier he exposed his family to great dangers from the savages that were lurking near the new settlements. A few years later King Philip’s war stirred up the lndians from one end of Massachusetts to the other. The massacre of Bloody Brook (a part of Deerfield), in which a whole company of soldiers were killed, put a thrill of horror through the new settlements, that were soon deserted, the people fleeing to Northampton for safety. But a few months later the whites turned the tide in the battle of Turner's Falls, which gave them rest for some years, till the Indians were stirred up again by the French, and attacking Deerfield at night, set fire to the town and massacred part ot the inhabitants, and made prisoners of the rest. In all these terrible scenes few families suffered more than the Field family, of whom some were killed and others, including women, carried into captivity, to Canada. But in spite of all these dangers, the brave settlers held the frontier and became the ancestors of families who have kept the name unsullied, honored and revered. Among their descendants are not only judges, senators, congressmen, clergymen, lawyers and physicians, but men of business, and one, Marshall Field, of Chicago, the leading dry goods merchant in the world.

In 1659 Zechariah removed to Northampton, where he was engaged in mercantile business and had a large trade with the Indians. He was one of the twenty-five persons who engaged to settle in what is now Hatfield, and was one of the committee to lay out the lands. They were to have their houses built and occupy them before Michaelmas (Sept. 29, 1661), but he did not probably go there until the next year, where he died, June 30, 1666. After his removal to Hatfield he was in business. His home lot contained eight acres, and was the first lot north of the Northampton road, and is now (1879) owned by William Billings, Esq.

" Zechariah Field was the first of the names to come to America from England, in 1630, and he is the ancestor of a large proportion of the families of that name, not only in New England, but in the United States. He was in Boston and Dorchester and moved thence to Hartford, Conn., going through the wilderness to the Connecticut river, where he was one of the first settlers. He owned large tracts of land there, some of which are now in the heart of the city of Hartford, one of these is now crossed by Asylum street, and is adorned by some of its most beautiful residences in that city. In 1644 dissensions arose in the church, which could not be successfully reconciled. He, with others of the early settlers, bought nine miles square of land lying north of Mt. Holyoke. Mr. Field settled in the part now named Northampton. In 1661 a grant was given him in the part now Hatfield, to which place he moved, and there passed the remainder of his days."

"Zechariah was the first to make his home in New England, and has the most numerous descendants, being the ancestor not only of a large proportion of the families of the name of Field in New England, but in the United States. He emigrated and landed in Boston in 1620, and settled in Dorchester. In 1636 a number of English emigrants, among whom was Zechariah Field, removed from Cambridge, Dorchester and Watertown to Connecticut, and settled in the towns of Hartford, Wethersfield and Windsor. Zechariah settled in Hartford, and his residence was upon Sentinel Hill, near the north end of Main street. He also owned lands upon which is Asylum street. The early historians of Connecticut speak of these emigrants as among the earliest planters in the state, and were all well-to-do persons. In 1658, after the death of Rev. Thomas Hooker, the first minister of the church in Hartford, a serious controversy arose in that and the neighboring churches of Windsor and Wethersfield, in relation to the "qualification for baptism, church membership and the rights of the brotherhood," and all efforts at reconciliation proving unsuccessful, the minority in the churches of Hartford and vicinity, with the view of extricating themselves and their children from these ecclesiastical dissensions, and being attracted by the beautiful and productive meadows on the Connecticut river above Northampton, associated themselves together to the number of sixty, of whom Zechariah Field was one, purchased of the Nonotuck Indians on the east side of the river a tract of land nine miles square, extending from Mount Holyoke to Napasoneag brook, nearly twelve miles up and down the river, which included the town of Hadley, and parts of the towns of Amherst, Granby, Leverett and Sunderland. They also purchased the same vear of the Northampton proprietors Capawonk, which included Hatfield meadow and Hockanum, on the east side of the river, opposite Northampton. In 1659 fifty-nine of these associates came up to Hadley, where forty-six remained, and thirteen came across the river, and mostly settled in Hatfield. Mr. Field settled in Northampton, where be was engaged in mercantile business and had a large trade with the Indians. He was one of the twenty-five persons who engaged to settle in what is now Hatfield. They were to have their houses built and occupy them before Michaelmas (Sept. 29, 1661). His home lot contained eight acres, and was the first lot south of the Northampton road, where the dwelling of William Billings now (1880) stands. Referring to the causes which led these people to leave their newly acquired homes in Connecticut, and go forth into the wilderness and make for themselves new homes, where dangers were ever present. True, they bought the lands from the Indians and the title deed signed by Umpanchala and his brother, Etowomq, granting the land from Mill river, or Capawonk, to the north side of the great meadows, and to extend back westerly from the Connecticut river nine miles. Yet this gave them no immunity from the continual alarms of Indian warfare which soon after sprung up, and was nearly continuous until the capture of the Canada's by the English and colonists which resulted in the peace of Paris in 1763."-Rodney Field.

The early portion of the history of Hatfield will be found in the history of Hadley, of which it originally formed a part. With Hadley, it was settled in 1659. and, although it was municipally and ecclesiastically a portion of Hadley, it began at an early day to transact certain kinds of business independently, in what were denominated "side meetings," the "side" having reference to the opposite side of the river from the center of jurisdiction. The inconveniences resulting from the necessity of crossing the river to attend meetings, were felt from the first, and when the population had been somewhat increased, in the passage of a few years, they gave rise to a controversy which at last resulted in the establishment of the town of Hatfield. Petitions and manifestoes, almost without number, were sent to the General Court from both sides.

The Hartford, Conn., land records have a large number of conveyances, grantor and grantee of Zechariah Field (1639 to 1662). Those old transfers were not much more than a memorandum.

The most prominent and controlling cause which led to the settling of Hadley and Hatfield was, without a doubt, the disagreement that arose in the churches, that had been planted at Hartford, Wethersfield and Windsor, Conn.

Hubbard says that the disagreements ended in the removal of one part of the church to Hadley and Hatfield. The cause of disagreement was simply this: Quite a minority in these churches held to different views relating to qualifications for baptism, church membership and the rights of the brotherhood. As relating to baptism, the minority held that it parents were respectable and not open to reproach for bad conduct, on their consenting to the covenant, they should have their children baptized. A matter of vital importance, as it was supposed and believed that without this rite having been administered, the child dying would be forever lost, even before it came to a knowledge of good and evil. And then some believed that no one should be permitted to enjoy church membership, except those that gave some evidence of their faith; while the minority wanted all to be admitted to the Lord's table, who had competent knowledge, and who were not immoral, though not claiming to have been regenerated. And then the minority were in favor of congregational form of government rather than a government by the elders and clergy.

Thus we see the causes which led these people to leave their homes and go forth into the wilderness, and make for themselves new homes, where dangers were ever present. True, they bought their lands of the Indians, and the title deed, signed by Umpanchala, and his brother, Etowomq, granting the land from Mill river, or Capawonk, to the north side of the Great or North Meadows, and to extend back westerly from the Connecticut river nine miles. Yet this gave them no immunity from the dangers resulting from the almost constant roar maintained by the various Indian tribes all along our frontier settlements. Among those who cared more for free religious thought and action then he did for sitting supinely by and allowing the minister to do the thinking for him, was the ancestor of our worthy host, Zechariah Field. Indeed he dared leave his house and lands, and although then three score years old, to leave all and go out into a new land, and built for himself a new home, where Indians roamed the fields, fished in our brooks, hunted in our woods, and planted corn in our meadows, sold brooms to our housewives, begged cold victuals, and strong water when they could get it, from our very religious ancestors in times of peace. But when ere long, strife was engendered and ruthless savage warfare was waged around our little frontier settlements; then. indeed, the faith and trust of these noble men, was equal to the occasion, and while they bravely defended their wives and little ones from the savage foe with such skill and power as they possessed they never forgot the great facts of their faith and calmly trusted in the Lord for that deliverance which He alone could give.---end of excerpt from "Field Genealogy"

FOUNDERS OF HADLEY, MASSACHUSETTS

On 8 October 1660 a town meeting was held at the home of Andrew Warner and Zechariah Field was one of the 28 attendees who established the settlement of the west side of the Connecticut River.

He traded there with the Native Americans and the whites and failed about 1664.

In March 1664, the town voted to pay Zechariah Field 20 shillings for the drum they (the Hadley Militia) had of him...---"History of Hadley, MA" page 33, 71

1st. We whose names are above written do engage ourselves mutually one to another, that we will if God permit, transplant ourselves and families to the plantation purchased, on the east side of the river of Connecticut, beside Northampton, therein to inhabit and dwell by the 29th of September come twelve months, which will be in the year 1660. [Meaning Sept. 29th, 1660.]
2d. That each of us shall pay the charges of the land purchased according to his proportion, as also for the purchase of Hockanum.
3d. That we will raise all common charges, of what sort soever, for the present, upon the land that men take up: mow, plow land and house lot, according to the proportion of land that each man takes of all sorts; and all charges shall be paid as they shall arise and be due, from the date hereof.
4th. That if any persons so engaging be not inhabiting there by the time aforesaid, then, notwithstanding their payment of charges, their lands and what is laid out in rates shall return to the town: and yet this article doth not free men from their promise of going and inhabiting.
5th. That no man shall have liberty to sell any of his land till he shall inhabit and dwell in the town three years; and also to sell it to no person, but such as the town shall approve on.

Agreed that all those persons that will go up within three weeks shall give in their names by this day fortnight, and then those that are so agreed shall take up a quarter together, and so those that follow shall take up another quarter, so they do it together, or so far as their numbers run.

Agreed also that no persons shall fell any trees upon any lot of ground lotted out, or to be lotted out, but upon his own ground or lot, or against his own lot within ten rods of the same in the highway. The land to be lotted is either what is for the homelots, or between the homelots and the meadow.

It is agreed also by the said company, upon the 25th of April 1659, that they will purchase the lands on the west side of the great river, above Napanset, if it can be bought, and that each of the said engagers will pay their several proportions to the said purchase, according to what they have put in to take up lands by, at the time of their said engagement: witness their hands, dated April the 18th 1659.

At the said meeting William Westwood, Richard Goodman, William Lewis, John White and Nathaniel Dickinson were chosen by the whole company, to go up to the foresaid plantation, on the east side of Northampton, and to lay out the number 59 homelots, and to allow eight acres for every homelot, and to leave a street 20 rods broad betwixt the two westermost rows of homelots; and to divide the said rows of homelots into quarters by highways. Those men, being willing to answer the desire of the said company, did undertake the work. They desiring to make some beginning there for themselves, the company granted them liberty, according to a former agreement, that they might choose in any of the quarters to lay out their own homelots, provided they took them together at one side of any of the said quarters.

The plantation being begun by them and some other of the engagers, the rest of the engagers that remained at Hartford and Wethersfield, with those that were come up to inhabit at the said plantation, did upon the ninth of November (1659) at Hartford, and about the said time at Wethersfield, and at the said plantation, choose by vote, William Westwood, Nathaniel Dickinson, Samuel Smith, Thomas Standley, John White, Richard Goodman, and Nathaniel Ward, to order all public occasions, that concern the good of that plantation for the year ensuing.

The said Townsmen made a rate upon the 22d of November, 1659, for the paying of the purchase of the said plantation, and for the minister's maintenance, levying it at 50 shillings the 100 pounds, which in the whole sum came to 180 pounds; for the speedy gathering of this rate, we sent the rate down to the two towns Hartford and Wethersfield, that the charges might be truly paid and satisfied, by every man according to his engagement, as is visible in the engagement itself, that is dated the 18th of April 1659.

There are 59 names to the Agreement, and one not fully engaged. Of these, -'II first named, from John Webster to Andrew Warner, inclusive, belonged to Hartford, except Samuel Porter, who was from Windsor, but may have resided in Hartford in 1659. The next 20, from Mr. John Russell, Jr. to John Latimer, inclusive, belonged to Wethersfield; the next two, Peter Tilton and John Hawks, were of Windsor, and 5 or 6 of the 7 below Hawks, were of Hartford. Those with this mark, * 18 in number, did not remove to Hadley, or remained there but a short time.---"The History of Hadley, Massachusetts"

GENEALOGICAL AND BIOGRAPHICAL HISTORY OF THE FIELD FAMILY
by Charles Kellogg Field III
beginning page 25

The Patriarch

The last day of June was drawing to a close. Across the river and beyond the meadows, a faint edging of golden sunlight deckled the tops of the lofty hills. Shadows lengthened across the green valley through which flowed the meandering Connecticut.

The old man stood in his doorway. Already he was beginning to see a farm appear out of what so short a time ago had been an unbroken plain of wild meadow grass. The boys had done well, he thought. Busy as he was with his trading post, it was fortunate that there were four stout sons to clear the farm for him. To be sure the trading had proved lucrative-both with his comrades and with the Indians. But every man must also be a farmer. How else would he get food for his family. After all, there was no friend like the good eaith-and this was, indeed, fine land.

He remembered how it had been bought, five years before. There were sixty of them in the deal, for no one or two men could have purchased that nine square miles of level, fertile meadow land stretching along the Connecticut for some twelve miles. They had bought in good faith from the Nonotucks, and the papers were duly signed by Umpanchela and his brother Etowomq. Now eight acres of this fine land comprised his home lot, and in two short years, thanks to the broad backs and willing zeal of his sons, a farm had appeared upon them.

Yes, only two years, for although the purchase had been made in 1661, he and others of the committee had first to lay out the town. Then there had been certain clearing necessary for the meeting house and other buildings around which the village was to form. Next the raising of these buildings and first preparations for his own homestead. After this he returned to Hartford to complete the sale of his
properties there. And so it was '64 before he and Mary and the children had reached Hatfield. Now it was '66 June thirtieth, 1666. The years were marching on.

As though depressed by the thought, Zechariah Field cast a last look at the blue hills, and turning, moved through the halflight of the room to a seat by the fire. Fires in June might be meant for cooking, but somehow tonight the warmth of the hearth felt good. Was it the mist already rising from the river that chilled him so? Perhaps it was, instead, just a sign that he was no longer the full-blooded young man who had strode the Yorkshire moors and braved the tempests of the great ocean; weathered the cruel winters in Massachusetts Bay Colony and made that long march through the trackless forests to Hartford; fought and routed the redmen in the old Pequod Wars; won the hand of Mary in the face of competition from so many rivals; labored to build their fortune, came at last to high estate among his fellow townsmen with a fine house on Sentinel Hill and many broad acres besides.

He guessed it was the years and years of weariness of battling with hardship, savages and exposure; with hunger, sickness and, worst of all, Puritans, damn them-hardbitten, narrow-minded, blue-nosed, soul-hounding Puritans! Why, they couldn't even leave little babies alone. Wanted to commit those innocent souls to eternal fire and brimstone if their fathers and mothers hadn't been baptized.

That's why Zechariah and the fifty-nine other "separatists' had picked up bag and baggage and left Hartford, Connecticut. Better to hack another home out of the wilderness, fight those red devils off for another thirty years, put up with all the other trials of pioneering that he knew so well, than to have to go on living among men whose doctrine was cruelty and whose daily bread was intolerance and hate. Here
things would be different!

Or would they? So many times he had gone to a new life with that same faith in his heart. "Here things will be different." How many times! Thinking upon these things, his memory reached back and ever back into those old, old days in England. He was a little boy on the farm in those days. He remembered once seeing his father write his name on a strange piece of paper that he was too young to understand. He could see the quaint old writing yet- "John Field, second son of Sir John Field of Ardislowe, in the West Riding of York." Ardislowe! Those strange old ways of spelling. They spelled it "Ardsley" now.

He remembered his father telling about Sir John Field. His own grandfather, Sir John would be. Father said they called him "The great Proto-Coperriican of England." When he had asked what that meant, his father had told him that there had been a great man named Copernicus who first found out certain amazing things about the stars and their relation to the universe. He had said that grandfather was the first man in England to understand and believe what Copernicus said and dare to write a book about it.

For in those days in England they killed men for having ideas that were new and unfamiliar. He remembered thrilling to the account of how Sir John had finally convinced them and had died rich in honors and worldly goods.

He remembered his mother, too, that dear, sweet mother so long lost in the misty past. But somehow he couldn't remember what her name was. Perhaps it was because his father always called her by little loving names of his own choosing.

He had been very young then. Afterwards, well it was rather hazy, the next twenty years or so. Yes, he was getting old. Old people were like that-could often remember things in their childhood when they couldn't recall things that had happened the day before. But he wasn't quite like that! He remembered well that day thirty years ago when he had leaned on the rail of the vessel bound out of Bristol for the
Massachusetts Bay Colony, and watched the shores of England fading from his sight forever. He remembered the coming to the new land, and all the high hopes that sang in his heart. He was thirty-one then.

He remembered the four years that followed, happy enough till the church trouble broke out. Those Puritans, of course! He remembered how, finally, he, with others, had left to seek new homes on the banks of the Connecticut River. That was how Windsor, Wethersfield and Hartford had come into being.

He was one of thirty-five who had founded Hartford. The Reverend Thomas Hooker had been their leader-a great man if there ever was one! If Thomas Hooker hadn't died the later trouble never would have happened. But a man can't live forever-even such a god-like man as Thomas Hooker-a man who, for instance, can give the world the new idea that men might govern themselves by written constitutional
law. No, a man can't live forever. "But I have lived a goodly time,” he thought, "and now the Hartford trouble is in the past. Here we are in our own new town of Hatfield-and I am well content."

Mary came to the fireplace, swung the crane, and began to ladle stew into bowls. It roused the old man from his reveries. He glanced up at her, then turned his head to glance about the room. Soon the sweet-scented barberry candles would be lit for supper, but now only firelight dappled the walls. Its rosy glow revealed but dimly the furniture and occupants and cast long shadows from the great chest against the wall and the long oak table at the far end of the room.

They were all there-the whole family. They had been talking, he supposed, for they were now, but lost, in his thoughts he had not noticed it.

Yes, they were all there-all, of course, but Mary, his eldest. For Mary was twenty-three now and married these three years to the younger Joshua Carter. Fine young fellow, he. Too bad they had lost their first little girl, born the next year. Let's see, the barn must be almost five months old now.

"How time marches,” he thought. "Look at son Zechariah, over there, twenty-one now-a man in his own right, and courting old John Webb's daughter, Sarah. Guess they'll be getting married in a year or two."

"And there's John, eighteen and tall as a poplar. Just as straight, too. Sweet on Mary Edwards, they tell me."

"Samuel? Well, he's only fifteen and not fretting much about girls yet. Give him maybe a year, though, and it'll be a different story. Hope he finds a girl as fine as Sally Webb or Mary Edwards or say, for instance that little Sarah Gilbert. Two Sallies in the family would be funny."

"As for you, Joseph, I won't worry about your wife yet. Eight year old boys have lots of living to do, good living too, Joey-the best of their lives before they need think about marrying and settling down. Little Joe! What does life hold in store for you? I wonder if-."

The old man drew his chair closer to the fire. Strange thing, the chill that was in his bones. Hadn't been feeling fit for quite a spell now. Didn't even seem to care much either. He was just tired no doubt. Tired, tired, tired! He'd like to go to sleep and sleep all night and all the next day. All week, even,-maybe longer-. His head slowly bowed until his chin rested upon his breast and, as he gazed into the embers
beneath the logs, his eyelids dropped, and he dozed.

His wife, lighting the candles, glanced at her husband's weary form, slumped in the chair by the fire. A shadow of concern passed over her careworn features as she crossed the room and lay her hand on his shoulder.

"Come on, Zech, supper's ready. What's ailin' you, Zech, aren't you feeling good?" she asked.

He rose slowly, stretched, stepped closer to the fire, and turning his back to it began to rub the grateful warmth into his thighs. "Reckon I'm kind o' played out," he said. "You folks go on and eat. I'm not hungry."

He left the fire, walked over to the doorway, and looked out over the valley. It was really getting dark now- already he could make out the fireflies in the alders near the river. F'rom somewhere across the water came the mournful call of a loon. A night hawk zigzagged in its flight before his vision. It was time to bar the door and windows he thought against who knew what sudden striking terror of the frontier
night.

"Better close things up, Sam," he said as he turned again and approached the ladder to the loft.

Notes for Mary~:
NOTES FOR MARY 'STANLEY'

"Field Genealogy" gives the wife of Zechariah Field as "Mary ___."

"Three Hundred Colonial Ancestors and War Service", page 102, cites the "Compendium of American Genealogy," Vol III, page 661, that Zachariah Field married Mary, d/o Christopher Stanley, of Boston.

Various ancestral files give Zechariah's wife as Mary Stanley, daughter of Christopher Stanley. She is sometimes shown to be the wife of Robert Field. The dates of her birth and death do not reconcile with Christopher Stanley. Therefore, Mary 'Stanley' is questionable as the wife of Zechariah.

Based on proximity, it would seem more likely that a Mary 'Stanley' or 'Standley' would be connected to one of the Hartford, CT, Stanley brothers, John, Timothy or Thomas of Hartford and up the Connecticut River Valley, than with Christopher who was of Charlestown-Boston.

But, there is also the connection to the Fields through Mary Phillips who would be a step sister to this Mary Stanley. Could she be the Mary who was sister of Christopher?

Mary's dob is variously given as 1598 [LDS], c1624, etc. It it were 1598 then she could not be the d/o Christopher who was born 1603. If it was c1624, then she would have to have been born in England as Christopher and Susanna came to America in 1635 and a Mary was not listed with them as a passenger. The passenger list shows children of ages 1 through their upper teens, so why would it not contain Mary 'Stanley' age 9?

The first child, Mary Field, was born 1643, so Zechariah's wife could easily be suspected of a dob of c1624. And 1624 would seem more likely than 1598.

Mary 'Stanley' could be a confusion with Mary Phillips, the step daughter of Susanna Aspinwall Stanley Phillips. See the following entry under the latter's name heading.
[]

SUSANNA ASPINWALL & MARY PHILLIPS

In view of the material posted here and the material posted in the Notes for William Aspinwall, it seems most likely that Christopher Stanley's wife was Susanna Aspinwall, sister of William Aspinall, who married secondly Lt William Phillips who predeceased her. It also seems to clarify one of the two Mary Stanley mysteries. The wife of Robert Field most likely was Mary Phillips, daughter of William Phillips and an earlier unidentified wife, and the step daughter of Susannah Aspinwall Stanley Phillips; rather than being Mary Stanley, daughter of Christopher and Susanna. The remaining Mary Stanley issue concerns Mary, wife of Zechariah Field who is sometimes shown as the daughter of Christopher and Susanna, but, does not seem to 'fit' in that family. Is it possible that Mary, wife of Zechariah was simply confused with Mary Phillips, wife of Robert Field? ---RCM

>>>>>CONTINUED FROM NOTES OF ZECHARIAH FIELD, HUSBAND OF MARY>>>>>

They watched how slowly and uncertainly he climbed the ladder. They listened to his dragging steps
overhead. They noticed the long interval between the dropping of first one boot and then the other. Mary
thought she heard a long drawn sigh mingled with the rustle of cornhusks as he lay down upon this great
bed brought with such difficulty from Hartford.

She shook her head. "Poor Pa," she said- "A man can't keep on goin' like him forever."

No, not forever, old Patriarch-older, even than your years. So sleep and rest. The rest so well deserved
when one has labored long and well.

And when faithful Mary turns to rouse you to another day she will know your work is done.

So passed Zechariah Field, son of John, son of Sir John; first of his breed to reach America; forebear of
all of his name who trace their lineage to New England; a strong, righteous and courageous man; a lover
of liberty, a defender of the weak and of the rights of others.

Behind the corn crib, little Joe fought hard to stop the welling tears. "When I grow up," he said
aloud-"When I grow up I'm go’ to be just like him." ----Written by Roswell Francis "Po" Field, September, 1940

Phil, I am greatly interested in your first-hand experience with East Ardsley and happy indeed to hear from you. I will try to cover the points you listed and tell you a little of what I've read along the way.
There is a two-volume Field genealogy that is available as a reprint from The Higginson Book Company at Salem, Massachusetts. It is full of information about this very interesting family.

The major portion of the Field genealogy concerns the descendants of a Zechariah Field who came to Dorcester, MA, in 1629/30 (Old Style). His father was named John Field, and Nathaniel Field, a brother, came to Virginia. A brother of theirs was the noted actor Nathan Field who was on the stage in London at the time of Shakespeare and Ben Jonson. A book about Nathan Field says that he was a close friend of Ben Jonson. Another brother, Theophilus, was the Bishop of Hereford.

[Note: Nathaniel, Nathan and Theophilus may have Zechariah's cousins.]

A lesser portion of the Field genealogy, in the second volume, treats the Field line that came to Virginia and combined to produce President Thomas Jefferson. His grandfather was a Peter Field, a burgess of Virginia during Colonial times. This is quite interesting to share a grandfather in common with Thomas Jefferson.

Zechariah Field was in place in the Massachusetts Bay Colony at a time when the population figure was at about 2,000 individuals. He went to Hartford, CT, with the group that founded that city, removed to Wethersfield, CT, then removed to Northampton, MA, and the smaller villages of Hatfield and Hadley, where he died in 1666. He was involved in the Indian fur trade, but died insolvent at a time when the fur trade in that region had died off. It is an accident of time and place, but he and his early descendants were involved in some of the most noteworthy activities in the early history of this country. He was a soldier in the earliest war with the natives in what is called the Pequot War.

I descend from Zechariah's son Samuel who was involved in a battle called Turner's Falls. He ws wounded, his intestines began spilling from his body, but he was amazingly cared for by a surgeon and survived for a number of years until he was killed by an Indian while working in his field.

I descend from Samuel's son, Zechariah, who was at Deerfield and later Northfield, MA, where he became a wealthy landowner and person of prominence. He married a young woman named Sarah Mattoon (descended from Hubrejcht Mattoon who was probably a Huegenot) who was living with her family in Deerfield at the time of the Deerfield Massacre on February 29, 1704, when the village was attacked in the night by a band of Abenaki Indians from Canada under a French military leader. Nearly 50 people were killed, and well over 100 people were captured and marched to Canada. Numbers of them were killed when they could not keep up. Deerfield was a small village out on the far western frontier of Massachusetts, and the families there were well intermarried. I lost a number of relatives on that night, including a brother of Sarah Mattoon and his entire family. Sarah Mattoon was a captive for five years until she took a canoe and paddled to the St. Lawrence River and then to Quebec. She stayed at the Ursuline Convent in Quebec for two years until she was redeemed by the Boston authorities. Upon her return to Deerfield, she and the younger Zechariah Field were married. They had a large family at Northfield, MA.

I descend from their son, Seth Field, who was born in 1712 and who graduated from Yale College in 1732. He was a schoolmaster at Northfield, a justice of the peace, and, during the Revolutionary War, was the head of the Committee of Correspondence that communicated with the Boston authorities during that war. He married Susannah Doolittle who was a daughter of the first Puritan minister at Northfield, Benjamin Doolittle, who was born at Wallingford, CT, and who graduated from Yale College in 1712. They had a large family at Northfield. I descend from their son, Seth Field, who served at a very young age in the Revolutionary War and who later studied at Dartmouth Medical College and practiced medicine. I descend from a daughter of Seth Field and Martha Hitchcock whose Keyes (both Solomon) grandfather and great-grandfather both were killed in Indian battles. If you saw the film "Last of the Mohicans," it depicts one of those battles. The fort surrendered to a large Fench and Indian force, and, after the British (we were then British) left the confines of the fort, the Indians began killing the people once they were outside. Hundreds were killed. An interesting fact about that incident is that the Indians took the possessions in the fort, some of which had belonged to people sick with smallpox. This was a confederation of Indians from as far west as the Mississippi River Valley, and many villages in the interior of the country were infected with smallpox. I have read that there were about 600 people killed in the French and Indian wars, and I believe that well over 60 and perhaps as many as 100 of my people were killed during those years, including both collateral and allied families. An interesting note is that I also descend from the original Studebakers who came to Pennsylvania in the 1740s from Solingen, Germany, where they had been knife-makers for generations. My own ancestor, Heinrich, was one of the original three emigrants, including two of his cousins. His cabin was attacked by a band of Delaware and Seneca Indians. He was killed in his field. His pregnant wife was killed, as was a toddler. The three remaining children were captured: Joseph, Philip, and Elizabeth. Joseph was turned over to Colonel Bouquet after about five years of captivity as the result of a truce. My own ancestor, Philip, spent seven years in captivity before he was returned after another truce. Elizabeth married an Indian, had a family, and never returned. Daniel, son of Philip, was my 3gr-grandfather, and he moved west with the other Studebakers who first made Conestoga wagons in Pennsylvania and Indiana, and who became very wealthy during the Civil War while supplying wagons to the Union Army. You could say they were well in place for the advent of the automobile. I daughtered out of the Field family when Charlotte Field, daughter of Seth Field and Martha Hitchcock, married Daniel Baird and came to farm on the wild frontier of Illinois in 1837, just after the Black Hawk War.

Some Field men of note: Marshall Field of the Marshall Field Department Store and the Field Museum in Chicago; Cyrus Field who led the effort to lay the telegraph cable on the floor of the Atlantic; his brother Stephen Field who was appointed to the U.S. Supreme Court by Abraham Lincoln and was one of the longest-lived justices on the Court; his brother David Dudley Field who led the initial effort to codify the laws of the state of New York, as well as some other states.

The earliest Field in English records was an Hubertus de la feld, said to be of the Counts of Colmar in Alsace-Lorraine. He came to England with Duke William in 1066 and received some land awards. The record is not unbroken, but his descendants were at Sowerby. The earliest in the unbroken line forward to the present is Roger de la feld in 1292. Sir John Field is covered fairly well in the Field genealogy. He was an early Puritan leader in London, and was imprisoned several times. He was a minister, and is thought to have been an author of the Marprelate controversy (Puritan theology). He was called the proto-Copernican because he brought the theories of Copernicus to England and had them published. He live about mid-point between Copernicus and Gallileo, and what he did was very dangerous. I can recall reading something about John Field, "the English astronomer," when I was a schoolgirl. Imagine my feelings when I encountered him as a grandfather.

The Field genealogy indicates the possibility of a royal connection through the marriage of John Field and Jane Amyas, daughter of John Amyas. There was an indication that there was a descent from a daughter of an Earl of Northumberland, possibly the Fourth. He was mobbed and killed by the citizenry after announcing an unpopular tax instituted by the king. Is the church you describe at Sowerby? The Field family at Sowerby were somehow connected with the Josselyn family. Do you have any knowledge about that?

I do know that some of the Field men were associated with Cambridge in the 1500s. Among the sons of Sir John Field were both a Nathan and Nathaniel, Theophilus, John, a daughter, and I think another son. A Richard Field was Chaplain to Queen Elizabeth the first. Interested in hearing further from you.

Hudson-Mohawk Genealogical and Family Memoirs:

(The Field Line)

Mary Catherine Field, wife of Harvey Smith McLeod, was a direct descendant of Zachariah Field, the emigrant ancestor from England. The English history of the Field family is one of noble achievement and unusual prominence. The name traces as far back as the Norman conquest. It was originally written De la Feld, or De la Felde, but about the middle of the fourteenth century was changed to Field, or in some cases Feild. In America and the United States the name is an eminent one, and includes Cyrus Field, the father of the Atlantic cable; David Dudley Field, the noted lawyer; Marshall Field, the merchant prince of Chicago; and many others of equal note. The first of record in the line of Zachariah Field was Roger Del Field of Sorverly, England, born about 1240. Zachariah Field, ten generations later, was born in East Ardsley, Yorkshire, England, in 1596. He was the son of John Field of Cockernhoe, England, and grandson of John Field, the astronomer.

(I) Zachariah Field came to New England from Bristol, England, arrived in Boston, Massachusetts, 1629, and settled in Dorchester. In 1659 he removed to Northampton, where he engaged in mercantile business and had a large trade with the Indians. He was one of the twenty-five persons who were the first to settle in Hatfield, and there passed the remainder of his days. He married, about 1641, Mary ————, who bore him five children.

(II) Sergeant Samuel, son of Zachariah Field, was born in Hartford, Connecticut, about 1651. He removed to Hatfield, where he was slain by Indians in ambush while at work in his field, June 24, 1697. He was a sergeant in the Turner's Falls fight with the Indians, and an influential citizen and town official of Hatfield. He married Sarah Gilbert, who bore him eight children.

(III) Captain Zachariah (2), son of Sergeant Samuel Field, was born in Hatfield, Massachusetts. He removed to Deerfield in 1710, and in 1717 to Northfield, Massachusetts, where he died. He was captain of militia, selectman many years, and a very wealthy and influential man. He married Sarah Mattoon, who prior to her marriage was carried away captive by the Indians and held a prisoner in Canada for five years. She bore him ten children.

(IV) Dr. Ebenezer, son of Captain Zachariah (2) Field, was born in Deerfield, Massachusetts, died in Northfield. He was a physician noted in his profession, and noted in the town records as "Doctor Field." He had great faith in the oil and gall of the rattlesnake, and captured large numbers to obtain his favorite remedies for rheumatism and fevers. The pole and hook with which he captured the snakes is now in the possession of the Pocumtuck Valley Memorial Association of Deerfield. He married Abigail Holton, who bore him six children.

(V) William, son of Dr. Ebenezer Field, was a farmer of Northfield, Massachusetts. He married Sarah Petty, who bore him five children.

(VI) William (2), son of William (1) Field, was born in Northfield, Massachusetts, where he followed the trade of a painter. He married Mary Woodward, who bore him seven children.

(VII) Franklin, son of William (2) Field, was born in Northfield, Massachusetts, August 11, 1824. He removed to Troy, New York, where he died May 8, 1881. He married in Montgomery, New York, November 8, ———— Mary Goldsmith, born November 13, 1820. Children: Thomas Goldsmith, Mary Catherine and Franklin.

(VIII) Mary Catherine, daughter of Franklin and Mary (Goldsmith) Field, was born February 21, 1852, died in Troy, New York, April 26, 1891. She married, January 18, 1872, Harvey Smith McLeod. (See McLeod III.)
