| Note | BELGIUM AND LIEGE The early history of Belgium parallels that of England in many respects. In the first millennium B.C. both countries were held by the Celts; bothwere conquered by Caesar and Roman civilization was introduced. In bothcountries the German invasions in the fifth century A.D. drove the Celtsinto the forests and highlands. Christianity was reintroduced into bothcountries at about the same time St. Augustine went to Canterbury in 597and St. Amand to Ghent in 610. He died at Tournai in 651. Charles Charlemagne I, who became king of the Franks in 768 made Aachenthe capital of his territories north of the Alps. It was second to Romein importance. From 813 to 1531the Emperors of Germany were crownedthere. The Franks in Belgium ceased to be known as Franks and were calledDictschen throughout the Middle Ages hence Dutch. In the southern partwhere Celtic civilization survived the Belgo-Romans were called 'Wala',hence Walloons. Liege is about fifteen miles west of Aachen at the junction of the Meuseand the Ourthe, and was German. At first it was merely a convenientstopping place on the way to Aachen. In the 6th century St. Monulffounded a chapel there for the benefit of travellers. St. Lamert wasmurdered there about 705. St.Hubert (706-727) built the church of St.Lambert and made it the seat of an archbishopric. It was attached to thediocese of Cologne. In the tenth century, it's university became famousunder renowned scholars. Besides theology, grammar, rhetoric, andpoetry, music and mathematics were taught in the city which could boastof being a 'Northern Athens'. In the thirteenth century, coal mining was developed and was followed bylarge scale iron working. This industry required capital which wassupplied by the bourgeoisie (middle class) who excised a restraininginfluence on the guilds. The restraint was emphasized by the power ofthe prince-bishops who kept the inquisition out of Liege and dominatedthe nobility. After the Reformation, the town became strongly Calvinist,Charles theFifth (1519-1556) determined to extirpate heresy. He issued 'Placards'from 1523 on. The 'Placard' issued in 1550 was very severe, and wasenforced strictly by de la Marck, the Bishop of Liege. Charles abdicatedin 1556 and his son, Philip II (1556-1598) sent the Duke of Alva fromSpain to suppress heresy. The Netherlands rose in revolt in 1568. Overone hundred thousand people, church intellectuals and skilled workmen,left the country. The Estanmbrugge-Yandells were among these. Elizabeth gave Norwich as headquarters for Flemish weavers, but thepeople of Liege were metallurgists and so they went chiefly to Devon andCornwall. Liege at the time of its foundation was purely Germanic and remainedGerman speaking until the Austrian Hapdburg gained control of thecountry. Then French began to infiltrate and the town gradually becamebilingual. THE NAME 'ESTAMBRUGGE' IN FLANDERS The name 'Estambrugge' occurs in two different sections of Flanders, __Ghent and Liege. I Ghent there was a clan d'Estambrugge to which the following refers: THE ESTANBRUUGE FAMILY IN GHENT (Translation by Dr. Joseph C.Doherty) Estanbberg (d') or Estambrugge was the name of one of the confederatenobles, although there are few accounts of him. Apparently he belongedto the family (clan) d'Estanmbrugge, to which Oliver d'Estambrugge, whowas appointed bailiff of Ghent in 1387, belonged. It has also beensurmised that this *IIeer (of,German Herr) van Estambrugge was a brotherof the Count Van Ligne. If this is so, he subsequently broke away fromthe confederates, inasmuch as he assumed, in the latter part of 1566,command from the National Militia of a hundred Cavalry for the defense ofBrussels. (Cf. te Water, Confederacy of the Nobles; Dll.dl 386-387) *the person referred to is the one mentioned in the first three lines. THE ESTANBRUGGE FAMILY IN GHENT Estanberg (d') ook Estanbrugge geheeten was een der verbondene Edelen,omtrent wien weing berigten bestaan. Misschien behoorde hij tot lietges(e)hlacht d'Estannbrugge, waartoe bhoorde Oliver d'Estambrugge in 1387tot Baljuw van Gent aangestelf. Er wordt ook vermoed dat hij heer vanEstambrugge ent broeder des Graven Van Ligne was. Als dit zoo is. danhecft hij zich spodc dig van de bondgen ooten afgescheiden, want dezeouttving op het laatsf van 1566 het bevel van de Landvoogdes over hondredmiters ter bewaring van Brussel, (Cf. te Water, Verbond der Edel Dll bl386.387) (From Biog. Woordenbock, v. vi F. F. p 234 THE ESTENBRUGGE_YANDELLTRADITIONS OF LIEGE In the middle ages a number of families of the name of Yandell (variouslyspelled Yendall, Yondel, Yendel, etc.) lived in Flanders in theneighborhood of Liege. They were German Flennings (Dictschen). The mainbody of the families lived on the west side of a stream, but aconsiderable number lived on the east side at the end of a bridge. Thesewere called the Estenbrugge-Yandells or briefly 'Estenbrugge'. At the time of the Reformation (about 1517) these people becameProtestants. As a result of the religious wars and the activity of theSpanish Inquisition during the latter half of the sixteenth century theywere obliged to leave the country. A large group went together andsettled in western Devon. Some of these used the name Yandell and somethe name Estenbrugge, which gradually became Anglicized into variousforms of Estabrooks. Colonel Edmond P. Easterbrook of Washington, D.C. who was Senior Chaplainof the United States Army until his death in 1933, wrote that a circledrawn with it's centre in Western Devonshire and a radius of fifty mileswould contain most of the Anglo-Dutch Estabrooks. Hubert Samuel Easterbrooks, Attorney at Law, Torquay,Devonshire, brotherof Col. Edmond Easterbrook, was interviewed by Mrs. Theodore Estabrooksand also wrote that the Estabrooks were farmers of Somerset andDevonshire and were of Dutch descent. So, evidently the traditionsurvives in this family. In the Estabrook Genealogy, compiled by William Booth Estabrook andpublished in 1891 by Andrus and Church of Ithaca, there is a record (page234) of the descendants of John Esterbrook. It states that theEstabrooks were Fleming. John Esterbrook lived and died near Liskeard,Cornwall. Canon Leverton of Liskeard said that the family had come toLiskeard from Ashburton on Dartmoor, Devon. This family settled in theNew York area 1832-1858. They are the pen manufactures. ESTABROOK From 'History of Westminster, by Wm. Sweetzer Heywood' 1728-1893. Page 635 'This name was known in Wales as long ago as 1413, and in Holland underthe Dutch form ESTENBRUGGE at an earlier date. 'It did not appear in this country till 1660 when three brothers born inEnfield, Middlesex Co., England, came hither to make themselves a home. 'One of them settled in Swansea, Mass., another in Concord and the third,Joseph , already prepared for college, entered Harvard and graduatedin1664. THE ESTABROOKS OFSWANSEA, MASS. The Genealogy of Wm. Booth Estabrooks, on page 254, contains thefollowing: 'Thomas Easterbrooks was one of those freely signed the agreement madebetween Mr. Willett and the church in Swansea Feb. 12, 1669 on admissionas an inhabitant '. Swansea was incorporated from Rehobeth in 1667. The residence of Thomasprior to Swansea is not known, but it has been suggested that he may havebeen one of the company of pioneers who came under the leadership of Rev.John Myles to Mass. from Swansea, Wales, in 1663. Swansea, Wales, has been called 'the metallurgical centre of the world. ' Copper has been smelted there since the time of Elizabeth. The Earl ofWarwick brought Flemings there about 1100 A.D. to help garrison thecastle. It would be natural for some of the Liege family to gravitate to Swansea,Wales. Thomas, who was great grandfather of Valentine Estabrooks ofSackville, may have been a cousin of Joseph I of Concord. THE ESTABROOKS ON THE ST. JOHN RIVER, NEW BRUNSWICK, CANADA THE ENGLISH ANCESTRY OF JOSEPH OF CONCORD (MASS.) Joseph A. Joseph has been assumed to be the name of the father of Josephand Thomas of Concord, Mass. The family must have of some consequencefor his son Joseph received a preparatory education for college and inthose days only the higher classes were educated. It seems rather odd that Joseph A. should have been living in Enfield,Middlesex, when his son Joseph II, was born in 1640. However, the civilwar was raging and Devon was the headquarters of Charles I. It wouldhave been a very unsafe place for a wealthy Puritan. Enfield was famousfor it's fine estates. It had also an excellent grammar school. It wasonly twelve miles from London, the stronghold of the Parliamentarians. When Charles II came to the throne in 1660, the family may have returnedto the west. The father was still wealthy for he sent Joseph I toHarvard and later supplied Thomas with the means to buy his farm andbuild his homestead at Concord, Mass. Another son is said to have goneto Concord. Possibly other children remained in Devon. Elijah I and his wifeprobably visited these in 1725-1730. The Yandells, who came to Swansea,Mass. in 1730, came from Wiveliscombe in Somerset. Joseph A. was a cultured Puritan. He was financially independent andenjoyed country life in the English tradition. His American descendants,for several generations, retained the same outlook. All the above accounts from Florence C.

The name originated in Flanders, where Estauberg(d') or Estaubrugge was the name of one of the confederate nobles. Heapparently belonged to the family or clan d'Estambrugge, to which Oliverd'Estambrugge, who was appointed bailiff of Ghent in 1387, belonged.Heer van Estambrugge may have been a brother of the Count Van Ligne, inwhich case he later broke away from the confederates, as in the latterpart of 1566, he assumed command of 100 Cavalry from the NationalMilitia, for the defense of Brussels. In the Middle Ages, several Flemish families by the name of Yandell (orYendall) lived together long ago in the low countries of Europe (Hollandor Flanders) in the neighborhood of Ghent or Liege. They wereDutch-Flemings. The main body of the family lived on the west side of astream; but a considerable number lived on the east side at the end of aparticular bridge (or bridges), and were therefore called theEstenbrugge-Yandells or briefly, the Estenbrugge. At the time of Reformation, (about 1517), these people becameProtestants. During the religious wars that followed (about 1570-80),and the activity of the Spanish Inquisition during the latter half of thesixteenth century, they had to leave the country. A large group wenttogether and settled in western Devon. Some used the name Yandell andsome the name Estenbrugge, which gradually became Anglicized into variousforms of Estabrooks. The tradition Florence Estabrooks received was the Estenbrugge orYandells lived in Brugges, Liege or Ghent (in present day Belgium).Another tradition however, is that they originally lived in Holland,moved into Flanders, and after a brief stay went on to England. Bothbranches of the family had members who migrated to America, where theyapparently kept contact. Josep Estabrooks of Concord, Massachusetts, was born in Enfield,Middlesex County, England in 1640. His father was also probably born inEngland, but his grandfather may have been born in Flanders, placing theoriginal emigration some time between 1590 and 1600. The family musthave done well in England, as Joseph was prepared for college beforecoming to America and took his four year course after his arrival. Hisbrother Thomas also did well, as he bought a large farm near Concord. Joseph's parents were certainly Puritans. After the death of Cromwelland the Restoration of Chales II, it was the sensible thing for a personwishing to be a clergyman in the Congregationalist Church to come toBoston, Massachusetts. Joseph arrived in Boston in 1880, and attended Harvard College from whichhe graduated in 1664. In 1667he was ordained as a colleague of theReverend Peter Bulkely at Concord, and on Bulkley's death in 1696 becamepastor of the Church, continuing in that office until his death 16September 1711 at the age of 71 years. He had been made a freeman atCambridge, Mass. on 03 May 1665. On 20 May 1668, he married Mary Mason,daughter of Captain Hugh and Esther Mason, at Watertown, Mass. The 'Boston News' reported that the Reverend Joseph Estabrooks 'waseminent for his skills in the Hebrew language, a most orthodox, learned,and worthy divine; of excellent principles in religion, indefatigablylaborious in the ministry of holy life and conversation.'. |

| Note | The First Generation in America - Concord-Lexington Ancestors of ELIJAH (2), (JOSEPH (I), Joseph (2), Elijah (1) Concord, Mass., which was to be the first home in America of the Flemish Estabrook Family, was founded in 1655 by a group of colonists under the Rev. Peter Bulkeley, who came from England expressly for that purpose.The colonists purchased from the Indians, six square miles of land withthe present Monument Square as the centre. On the eastern side of Monument Square rises a hill. On this, colonists built their first church and located their first burying ground. Against its side, they built their rude shelters for the winter. Peter Bulkely, their leader, was well suited to his task in many ways. He was stern and autocratic by nature __ qualities which so impressed the neighboring Indians, that in one of the wars, their chief forbade his tribe to take part, declaring that the White Leader had too much influence with the Great Spirit. However, he was not so fortunate in dealing with his own countrymen. Some of the Concord colonists resented his arrogance so much, that they migrated in a body to Connecticut. Florence C. Estabrooks wonders if the third Estabrook brother may have joined this group. Joseph I arrived in Boston in 1660. Possibly his brother, Thomas, accompanied him then or he may have joined him later. Their father may have arranged that Joseph's share of his estate, should go into his college course, while Thomas should have means to buy and equip his farm. This has been a well-known family name in Carleton County since the early1800's, and in the southern part of New Brunswick since the 1760's.According to her book, 'Genealogy of the Anglo-Dutch Estabrooks Family of the Saint John River, New Brunswick', compiled by Florence C. Estabrooks of Saint John, N.B., in 1935, revised 1958, (Saint John, N.B.: privately published, the most remote ancestor of the Carleton County families was Joseph A. Estabrooks (sometimes spelled Estabrook, Esterbrook, and a few other variants). Florence C. Estabrooks said in her book, that Joseph A. Estabrooks has been assumed to be the name of the father of Joseph and Thomas of Concord, Mass. The family must have been of some consequence for his son Joseph received a preparatory education for college and in those days only the higher classes were educated. After Joseph received his preparatory education in England, he entered Harvard College at Cambridge, Massachusetts. Joseph Estabrooks Jr. was born in England about 1640 and arrived in Boston in 1660. He entered Harvard and was graduated in 1664. He was made a freeman, (1). One enjoying civil political liberty. (2). one having the full rights of a citizen. Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary, ©1993) at Cambridge, Mass., May 3, 1665. In 1657 he was ordained as colleague of the Rev. Peter Bulkeley, minister of the church in Concord, Mass., and on Mr. Bulkeley's death in 1696, became pastor of the church, continuing in that office until his own death Sept. 16, 1711, at the age of 71 years, in Concord, Mass., when he was succeeded by John Whiting (H.C.) 1661). On May 20, 1668, he married at Watertown, Mass., Mary, daughter of Capt. Hugh and Esther Mason of that place. She was born Dec.18, 1640. He was a man eminently fitted for his office. His appearance carried with it so much dignity that people were induced to love him as a friend and reverence him as a father. These distinguished traits in his character obtained for him in the latter part of his life the name of ‘The Apostle'. His salary at Concord was £80 of which £40 was to be in money and £40 ingrain. On the 12th of March, 1681, the town voted: 'that every householder that hath a team shall carry yearly one load of wood to the minister, and every other householder or votable person shall cut wood one day for the minister, and that the wood be equally divided to the minister as the selectmen shall appoint'. On his death the Boston 'News Letter' of Sept. 18, 1711, said: 'This day was interred in Concord the Rev. Joseph Estabrook, minister of the gospel in said town for about 44 years (and many of them was colleague to the famous Mr. Bulkeley). He was eminent for his skill in the Hebrew language, and a most orthodox, learned and worthy divine; of excellent principles in religion, indefatigably laborious in the ministry, and of holy life and conversations.' (Shattuck's History of Concord, W.B. Estabrook's Genealogy) The church in which Rev. Joseph Estabrooks preached was the church on the hill near the centre of the old burying ground. It was the one first erected by the colonists. After his death the congregation decided to build a larger, more convenient edifice; so down near the square in 1712they built the beautiful colonial building which was to witness some of the most stirring events of the American Revolution. The children of Rev. Joseph and Mary (Mason) Estabrooks were: Joseph; Benjamin (Harvard, 1690, minister at Lexington, died 1697); Mary; Samuel (Harvard, 1696, minister at Canterbury, Conn., 1711-1727); Daniel; and Ann Estabrooks.

Pastor 1670 in Concord until 6 Sep 1711, age71. FAMILY OF JOSEPH OF CONCORD IN ENGLAND. The facts regarding the family of Joseph I, Massachusetts, are rather uncertain. His father must have been a man of means because Joseph got his course at Harvard and his younger brother, Thomas, got a good farm and built a fine house on it at Concord after Joseph I got his appointment with Mr. Bulkeley. An Item contained in 'Early Settlers, West Dunstable, Monson, and Hollis, N. H.' by Chas. S. Spaulding, 1915, is interesting: 'Joseph A. Estabrooks came over from Ipswich High, Suffolk County, England, in 1634 and settled in Concord, Mass'. Now Peter Bulkeley brought a party of English Colonists over from England in 1634 - 35 for the express purpose of setting Concord, Mass. Joseph A. Estabrooks of Ipswich High may have been among these. If so, he must have decided that the Country was too rough, returned to England, settled in Enfield, which was a lovely place with a famous School, and brought up his family there. His son, Joseph I was ready for College, the situation, both in the old World and the New, had greatly changed. Cromwell was dead and under Charles II the Puritans were having a hard time. In Boston, Harvard University was founded in 1638. Possibly Joseph A. Estabrooks got in touch with Peter Bulkeley, at any rate Joseph Estabrooks I entered Harvard in 1660. To get a picture of the family in England is difficult. Joseph A. Estabrooks of Ipswich High in Suffolk was probably born there about1610. His father may have been born in England around 1585; but behind that looms the question, 'When did the Estambrugge - Yandels leave Liege?' The Emperor Charles V abdicated in 1555, and his son Phillip Immediately decided to extirpate heresy in the Netherlands. In 1558 the country rose in revolt against Alva and the Inquisition. |

| Note | The place of residence for this family between 1724 and 1734 is unclear.There is a tradition on the Saint John River in New Brunswick that theirson, Elijah, was born in England about 1727, and that Elijah, Sr. broughthis family back to North America in 1730. They possibly lived in RhodeIsland from 1730 to about 1734 when they removed to Sherborn, Mass.,where Hannah (Daniel's) family lived, and where Elijah's sister, HannahEstabrooks (Mrs. Joseph Frost) lived. Elijah's health may have beenfailing for he died in 1740. Elijah I, Estabrooks,son of Joseph II Estabrooks and Hannah (LeverittLoring, was born in Lexington. Aug. 25, 1703. On October 1, 1724 hemarried in Boston Hannah Daniel of Sherborn, Mass. They were married byMr. Thomas Prince, Presbyterian (Boston Marriages 1700-1755 page 119).She was born April 6, 1702 at Sherborn, daughter of Robert and HesterDaniel. Robert was son of Samuel Daniel, who was the son of Robert Danielwho settled in Waterloo, Mass. previous to 1636. The place of residence of this family is unknown between 1724 and 1734.There is a tradition on the Saint John River that Elijah II was born inEngland and that the father brought his family back to America (RhodeIsland) in 1730. (See Estabrooks-Palmer Records). Elijah I and his wife probably went to the early home of the Flemishfamily in Devon or West Somerset or possibly Swansea. The first Yandellsare mentioned in Swansea. The first Yandells mentioned in Swansea, Mass.in 1731. They arrived in Boston at about the same time, They are saidto have come from Wiyecliscombe in West Somerset. Possibly theyaccompanied Elijah I on his return. Also a hint of connection betweenthe Swansea (Mass.) family and the Concord family is suggested. ThomasEstabrook III of Swansea had a son Valentine, born Sept. 13, 1725.Valentine was one of the original Committee for the Township ofSackville, 1762. Elizabeth (Estabrooks Palmer in her records, which arevery accurate, says that James, the son of Valentine and long a member ofthe House of Assembly in N. B. was a cousin of Elijah the Preacher, sonof Elijah of Haverhill. This could refer only to Devon relationship. Mrs. Elizabeth (Watson) Estabrooks, wife of Abraham Estabrooks (son ofJohn and grandson of Elijah) who established a fruit business in SaintJohn live to be one hundred years old. Her early married life was spenton a farm at Swan Creek which had been part of his father, John'sproperty. Elijah helped John , who was his youngest son by Mary Hackett,clear his farm and is said to have died there. Elizabeth adsorbedEstabrooks traditions and declared that she knew more about theEstabrooks than they did about themselves. She was a very fine looking,keen minded old woman when Frances C. Estabrooks went to see her, about1903. She said that Elijah II of Haverhill was born in England and was anon-commissioned officer (sergeant) in the army. This lady was 'AuntBetsy Abe' to the family. Elijah I possibly had a family in Rhode Island from 1730/31 to 1734 whenhe removed to Sherborn, Mass., where his wife's family lived and also hisown sister, Hannah,who was the wife of Joseph Frost, a very dependablecitizen. Elijah I's health may have been failing. He died in 1740 Rumors of this sojourn in Rhode Island probably caused Stephen HarrisEstabrooks, who wrote the records for William Booth Estabrook beginningon page 242, to state that Elijah I was born in Rhode Island. Stephenhas no account of the Concord connection. Elijah II of Haverhill was very well versed in Flemish traditions. Hisfather and his mother may have received these stories during theirvisit. But the venture was very unfortunate from a financial point ofview, an experience which many Loyalists were to repeat later . ElijahEstabrook the First died intestate Dec. 1, 1740 and his assets weremeager. His relations in Sherborne, and in particular his brother-in-lawJoseph Frost, looked after the family. His widow, Hannah, married JosephBurrell in Newbury on Feb. 9, 1743/44. He owned a house andship-building plant in East Haverhill (Rocks Village) where they lived.Her children by her first husband: Samuel, Elijah, Submit and (possibly)Hannah arrived in East Haverhill (Rocks Village) as a result of thismarriage Children of Elijah I and Hannah Daniel: 1.

Note: There was a Lieutenant Samuel Estabrook, who owned a house inSwetts Lane, Rocks Village, in 1780. Florence C. Estabrooks says shecannot locate him. He bought the Silloway house in 1813. Also, a Samuel Estabrooks of the 'Bay of Honduras' had a son, John, whowas christened in St. Paul's Church, Newburyport, Nov. 21, 1802. Mrs. Elizabeth (Watson) Estabrooks, wife of Abraham, great grandson ofElijah and Hannah (Daniel) Estabrooks, 'Aunt Betsy Abe' to the family,established a fruit business in Saint John, New Brunswick, and livednearly one-hundred years, remaining alert and keen to the end. Hermarried life was spent on a farm at Swan Creek, Queens County, NewBrunswick, near Upper Gagetown, property of John, her father-in-law, whowas the son of Elijah and Mary (Hackett) Estabrooks. Aunt Betsy Abe wasfull of Estabrooks tradition, and declared that she knew more about theEstabrooks than they knew about themselves. She said Elijah, son ofElijah and Hannah (Daniel) Estabrooks, was born in England. Elijah and his family possibly lived in Rhode Island from 1730 to 1734when he removed to Sherborn, Norfolk County, Massachusetts, where hiswife's family lived, and where his sister, Hannah, lived also. He died,in state, in 1740, and his assets were meager. His relatives inSherborn, and in particular his sister Hannah and her husband, JosephFrost, looked after his family. His widow, Hannah, remarried February 9, 1743/44, to Joseph Burrell, OfNewbury, Massachusetts. He owned a house, and a ship building business,in East Haverhill (Rocks Village) , where they lived.

Memoirs of my Grandfather Dear King, a question you asked me a few weeks ago reminds me I mustinform you (for your pleasure and that of our children) in regard to thelife and character of our grandfather Nataniel C. Cottle. When I was achild and while grandmother lived they occupied a part of our house. Iwould walk in their den(?) and grandma would ____ pick me up ____ my headagainst the ceiling, give me a cookie and sit me on grandpa's ____ atable where he was most often reading his bible. He would stroke my headand smile and tell me little stories for which he was adept and it was agreat source of pleasure to my little sisters and as I grew there grew inme a love that was never marred by fear. At the age of nine he joinedthe Baptist Church and never ____ back slide (as the saying was) andnever in his life did he fail to testify when that privilege was given heserved as Deacon of a Baptist church sixty years ____ or ____ could.Wasn't nothing but a blinding Blizard kept him from the monthlyconference.

And do you realizebrother he was in his prime 100 years ago and the family owned all of thefirst wheeled vehicles in ____ county and the old mill stones they turnedby hand to grind the family flour are I presume still in a stone wall(fence) on the old farm. I hope to look them up someday before I pass tothe great unknown. But to return to Grandfather, although an unassumingman in the absence of a practice he would take a text and preach a sermondown in front of the pulpit. He always taught a bible class composed ofmiddle aged men and they would sometimes get so obsessed in their lessonthat the school would close and the people gather for the sermon and thepreacher would be blessings for time and for eternity we humbly begChrist ____ 'redeemer's sake'. In his later years he would often come to____ with bible in hand and say Amanda I am going to be called away totake a rest soon and have to remind you of this' a certain passage ofscriptures beside his general ____ he read the bible through ____ timesand claimed there were two books misplaced and I suppose he was right.He was very ____ and neat in his appearance.

One of his mottos was 'Silenceand circumspection' he had a great ____ for ____ and of late years I amreminded of his many sayings. The letter above is from Richie Travis Dykeman to his younger brother,King about his recollections of his grandfather, Nathaniel C. Cottle (N.Cottle, Jr.). Where ever a word couldn't be read or deciphered there isa space. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The accounts below were obtained from newspaper obituaries found in theSeattle Public Library and from the Lake View Cemetery Association, Inc.in Seattle, WA. In April, 1914, there were 1,060 qualified lawyers practicing in KingCounty, Washington. an increase of forty over the previous year. In orderto clear the docket it was determined to increase the departments of theSuperior Court to eleven from June 8th to June 30, 1914. Two outsidejudges were secured to assist the King County Superior Court judges. The nine members of the Superior bench in Seattle are Judges A.W. Frater,Boyd J. Tallman, J. T. Ronald, R. B. Albertson, John S. Jurey, EverettSmith, King Dykeman, Kenneth Mackintosh and Michell Gilliam. A Juvenile Court was talked of for several years before it was actuallyestablished here. In February, 1904, judge Ben D. Lindsey of Denverlectured at the Presbyterian Church on the subject of juvenile courts,many members of the local bench and bar being present. Establishment ofsuch a court here, as a department of the Superior Court, and a detentionhome for juveniles in custody was successfully undertaken by the women'sclubs of the city, and for the first eighteen months of its existencethey paid all the expenses of the probation officers. It was not untilJanuary, 1906, that the court was finally opened by Judge Frater. Anentirely new procedure was put in operation in his courtroom. Formalitywas largely disregarded, in order to quiet the apprehension of the boysand girls and to secure their confidence and co-operation. Judge Fratermade it his practise to give them sound advise rather than sternpunishment for their misdeeds. Comparatively few were sentenced to anypenalty, and nearly all were released on probation or upon theirpromises. The women's clubs and Judge Frater deserve great credit forthe really excellent showing of this court. In March, 1906, there wereforty cases before the court. Not one offender was committed, nearly allwere dismissed on promises and only seven were placed on the probationlist. In November of the same year twenty-seven were before the court atone time, and nearly all were released on probation. A few were sent tothe reformatory and to Mercer Island Detention Home. As early as 1907,the town of Ballard asked for a special and separate Juvenile Court, butits annexation to the city removed this need for such an institution. A new juvenile law became effective in June, 1933. One object of itscreation was the formation of a juvenile and humane emergency fund, intoto which all fines collected under juvenile ordinances should bedeposited for the benefit of neglected and destitute children. Therewere many strict provisions, calculated to prevent delinquency. Duringthe fiscal year 1912-13, 728 children were cared for at the detentionhome, with an average an average daily attendance of fourteen. The totalnumber of delinquents dealt with was 703 boys and 356 girls. Of theaggregate number, 731 were given formal court hearings and either sent toreformatory institutions or released on probation. In twelve cases thedelinquencies were found to be due to divorces or other home tragedies. In April, 1914, Judge A. W. Frater, father of the Juvenile Court ofSeattle, retired and was succeeded by King Dykeman. The former hadaccomplished a great work and one that should serve as a monument to hiskindness and self sacrifice. Judge Dykeman at once became active in amovement to obtain a new juvenile detention home to replace the olddwelling at Ninth Avenue and Jefferson Street, which had been user astemporary quarters, and the promise of an extensive new building, withplaygrounds and many conveniencies for the health and enjoyment ofSeattle's less fortunate boys and girls for 1915. Long on Bench Judge Dykeman, who succeeded Wylie Hemphill as president of the SeattleChamber in January, had been actively interested in civic enterprises andin the work of various charitable organizations since he began thepractice of law in this city in 1903. Because of his death, the Members'Council luncheon meeting of the Chamber of Commerce on Friday, has beenpostponed. Assistant corporation council of Seattle from 1906 to 1911, he wasappointed to the bench of the Superior Court in the latter year. Twoyears later he was elected to the position, serving until 1925. Judge Dykeman's great interest in the problems of young people led to hisbeing given the direction of the Juvenile Court. In this capacity, he iscredited with having built the first complete Juvenile Court plant in theUnited States. His interest in the work continued until his death. He was a former publisher of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. Born in New Brunswick, Canada, May 15, 1874, Mr. Dykeman came to Seattlein 1820. In 1903, he graduated from the University of Washington with abachelor of laws degree and began the practice of law here. Old-timers remember that Judge Dykeman, who came to Seattle when he was a16-year-old orphan and the city had a population of but 42,000, worked onPuget Sound steamers to earn the money to compete his education at theUniversity. He resumed private practice of law in 1928 with the formation of the firmof Dykeman, Monheimer & Griffin. Judge Dykeman was married in 1906 to Luella E. Hines of Seattle whosurvives him together with Bruce and Ruth Kathleen. A member of Phi Delta Phi law fraternity, he was also affiliated with theMasonic, Elks and Eagles. CAREER OF JUDGE KINGDYKEMAN_______________________________ Began Life as a Deckhand on a PugetSound Steamboat ON BENCH JUST AYEAR Came to Seattle After the Fire in 1889 and Had aVariety of Experiences._______________________________ An interesting career of a self-made man is that of Judge King Dykeman,who just a year ago donned the robe of a superior court judge. As deckhand on a Sound steamer, a common laborer, a shipping clerk and a sectionhand, he struggled against the adversities of life made it easy for himto ripen into a public official of great worth. Judge Dykeman came to Seattle from New Brunswick just after the greatfire in 1889, a boy of 16, with little money and few friends. Heattended the common schools for two years, making enough money to pay hisexpenses by working after hours at the Colman dock. Interesting Experience. His experiences as a deck hand on the steamer Greyhound running betweenSeattle and Everett, however, were the most interesting, as there wereoften as passengers on the vessel Boyd J. Tallman, Robert D. Albertson,Mitchell Gilliam and James t. Ronald, now his associates on the bench ofKing county. In the employ of the Puget Sound Wire and Nail Company his duties atfirst were that of a common laborer, although he soon won promotion tothe position of wire drawer. He was quartermaster of the steamship Cityof Seattle, running to Alaska ports, a section hand between Skagway andWhite Horse on the White Pass & Yukon railroad. Finally, with a few dollars ahead, Mr. Dykeman came to Seattle anddetermined to get an education. He worked his way through the Universityof Washington, taking the position of hotel clerk or anything he couldget to do by which to earn a little money at night. Graduated in 1903. In 1903 he graduated from the University of Washington with a bachelor oflaws degree and was admitted to the bar. He practiced law from 1903 to1906, when he was appointed assistant corporation council by ScottCalhoun. He was elected president of the Young Men's Republican Club,April 2, 1910, and did valuably service for his party with thatorganization. On March 22, 1911, with the late Judge Robert W. Prigmore, Mr. Dykemanwas appointed a judge of the superior court of King county by Govenor Hay. Through an oversight, the sketch of Judge Dykeman was omitted from thepart of the annual in which the sketches of the other judges appeared.

| Note | Ruth Kathleen Dykeman, daughter of 'King' Kingsely Partlo Dykeman andLuella Hines, was born 1912 and died 1955. The Ruth Dykeman Children's Center at 1033 SW 152nd St. Seattle,Washington, was named after her and is a center for troubled youth. Itwas founded in 1921. The Ruth School For Girls, named in honor of Judge Dykeman's daughter,Ruth, was organized in 1921, when Judge King Dykeman was the Judge of theJuvenile Court. He felt for sometime the need of a place to send girlsfrom Protestant families, who, for one reason or another, had becomewards of the Juvenile Court. So, through the Central Mission Study of Seattle, a group of men andwomen became interested in this problem of Judge Dykeman's, and inFebruary, 1921, the Ruth School For Girls was incorporated. It's object, as stated in the Articles of Incorporation, is 'to acquireand maintain in the City of Seattle, County of King, and State ofWashington, a home or club for girls, facilities for their care,education, and industrial, religious and social training.' The Ruth School is supported through the Seattle Community Fund and iscontrolled by a board of twenty interdenominational church women withMrs. S.D.Wingate as President. Eighty- five percent of the problem girls come from the broken homecaused by divorce, illness and social problems. The girls attend theschool at the request of guardians or as wards of the Juvenile Court. The Ruth School does not usually accept a girl for less than one year inorder that she may receive proper economic and vocational guidance thatenable her to again become a part of the public school, office, factory,or domestic work. The Ruth School is the outstanding institution rendering this sort ofservice in the Pacific Northwest. The vocational work includes cooking,sewing, laundry, dining room service and follows the outline of homeeconomics in the public schools for which school credits are given.Eventually the school was co-ed. *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** Updatedinformation about the school Ruth Dykeman Children's Center celebrated its 80th anniversary in 2001.Committed to serving children and families through residential andcommunity programs. RDCC (Ruth Dykeman Children's Center) continues itstradition of innovation and continuous quality improvement. Founded in 1921 by Judge King Dykeman, the agency began its existence TheRuth School For Girls, located in an abandoned schoolhouse in Seattle'sRavenna District. Its long and close relationship with United Way ofKing County began in 1923, when the agency became one of the earliestmembers of the Community Chest, the forerunner of United Way. Ten yearslater, the agency moved to its present eight and a half acre location at1033 S.W. 152nd Street, Seattle, Washington 98166-1845 on the shore ofLake Burien. Through the mid 1940's, the agency provided care fortroubled, non-delinquent girls who were wards of the state. Between 1945and 1970, the agency expanded and modified its programs to serve girlswith serious emotional and behavioral problems. In 1978, the agency began to offer Family Reconciliation Services,short-term intensive crisis intervention counseling. The interventionoften diffuses potentially explosive situations and allows families andallows families to avoid out-of-home placement of children. During thisperiod RDCC also began serving boys in residential treatment. By theearly 1980's, the agency was providing residential treatment services togirls and boys ages 8 to 18. In the current residential and home-basedtreatment programs, some of the area's most emotionally impaired childrenand their families are helped to come to terms with past experiences ofabuse and neglect, and begin to learn the skills necessary to resolveindividual conflicts and strengthen family relations. In 1990, Highline Youth & Services merged with Ruth Dykeman Children'sCenter. The Center now offers an array of services to children andfamilies with the goal of providing the right service at the right timeand place. Community based services are provided in schools, homes andcommunity centers. Programs include individual and family counseling,alcohol and drug abuse prevention and treatment, teen pregnancyprevention, parenting services for young families and refugee communityorganizing. Thanks to strong and generous community support, Ruth Dykeman Children'sCenter conducted two successful capital campaigns in the past decade,resulting in two new state=of-the-art residential treatment facilities.Cedar House was completed in 1995 and serves the Girl's ResidentialProgram, while Madrona House opened its doors to the Children's Programin April 2001. In addition, the agency also constructed an ActivityCenter for use by the youth and families served in the community-basedservices. Across all programs, through 36 contracts and with 50 collaboratingpartners, Ruth Dykeman Children's Center touches thousands of people eachyear. By upholding the values of collaboration, integrity, diversity andcontinuous quality improvement, the agency works to empower children,families and communities to meet their own needs and develop theirdiverse gifts and strengths. Ruth Dykeman Children's Center remainscommitted to its historic mission of joining with communities to provideand advocate for individualized and innovative family-centered,community-based services to meet current and emerging needs. |

| Note | People called him B.B. He came to Montana from New Brunswick, Canada, to work as an assayer at Quartz Hill near Dewey, Montana. He stayed seven years before returning to New Brunswick. He met this girl and fell in love. Blackwell and Nettie Edith Shaw were married and settled down to domestic life. Nettie expecting their first child became sick It was a lung ailment similar to tuberculosis. There was nothing they could do for her. She would die and so would the baby. B.B. said there was a way she could be pulled through and to let him do it. He carried her onto the train and brought her to Butte, Montana. It was the first train to hit Butte. Not only did that first baby live, but Blackwell and Nettie had eight more children. Nina was the youngest, but when she was 10 many of the older children were grown so B.B. and Nettie decided to first a little girl about 18 months old, Jenny, and four years later an eight-year-old boy making eleven in all. Once Blackwell planned a trip to visit relatives, he gave Nettie $200 for whatever she and two children might need in his absence. While he was gone a big cattle drive came through the little town of Dewey. Men told the residents to keep everyone off the streets because 1,000 head of cattle would be rambling past their houses. Mom thought this was an opportunity to get Dad out of the mine, he had gone back to work as an assayer, even though his lungs were scalded in an accident. She had worried about him a lot so she went to the man with the cattle and told him to give her as many head as $200 would buy. 11 head of cows and calves was not enough so another man took up Nettie's cause. He fibbed some to the foreman, telling him Nettie was a widow with a big family. He talked him out of seven more head of yearlings. When Dad came home, she told him about it and Dad just sat down. Finally he said, 'Well we have cattle now we need a place to put 'em. The only place for cattle is on a ranch,' He took up a homestead in Beaverhead County on the lower north fork of the Big Hole River, a mile or so down the road from the Frank Bacon. The Indians were still there and would visit Mom every so often. My parents never left that ranch. They raised their large family there. After B.B. passed away in 1929, Nettie lived on the ranch with her son Bart and his wife, until she passed away some 10 years later. These notes where written by Nina Nettie (Lawrence) Davies, Born 11 Oct 1904 in Bowen, Beaverhead County, Montana and died 13 Mar 1995 in Hamilton, Ravalli County, Montana. |
