PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION.

When our forefathers came to this country, they introduced at once a Registry of Deeds, or a uni- form system of recording land-conveyances ; and they also established a Probate Office, to contain the entire settlement of the estates of deceased per- sons,— the original probate of each will being for ever conclusive on all parties, both as to real and personal property. In both these particulars, they were two centuries in advance of the mother-country, where such registries of conveyances were only locally and partially introduced, and where wills were required to be proved over again in each suit respect- ing real estate. The county of Suffolk consists of the city of Boston, and the small adjoining town of Chelsea and its various subdivisions. It formerly included also the several towns now constituting Norfolk County. Suffolk County^ therefore^ means

XU PREFACE TO THE SECO^'D EDITION.

Boston and its immediate vicinity. Our registry of deeds now numbers 735 volumes, of which the first 20 contain all the deeds prior to A.D. 1700. The deeds of the next hundred years come down only to Lib. 200. Those of the first quarter of this century reach to Lib. 300 ; and the last thirty years have added more volumes than were made during the w^hole former period. It is to this collection of Sufi'olk deeds that I refer by " L." and " f." All the records of Suffolk County were removed to Canada during the Revolution; and two volumes — L. 112 and L. 11 J: (for the years 1766, 1768) — were not returned. In these missing volumes, lawyers have presumed to be recorded all conveyances of or before that period which cannot be found, — a convenient hypothesis, which however, it must be confessed, would make these two volumes more bulky than any twenty others. It is an interesting fact, that, though these records have existed among us for two centu- ries, it is only within the present year that an appropriation of twelve thousand dollars has been made for a new and perfect Index since A.D. 1800, in which all the various surnames are to be arranged alphabetically. This Index will be of incalculable value, and will supersede for ever a vast amount of irksome labor.

PREFACE TO THE SECO^'D EDITION. Xlll

The existence of these records has produced among us a branch of the legal profession known as conveyancers, and examiners of titles to real estate. On the completion of my law-studies, my tastes led me to this pursuit ; and I have now fifty-five auto- graph folio volumes, of five hundred pages each, of these abstracts of titles. Beginning my researches in 1827, before the registry had become very volumi- nous^, I, in every instance, traced back the estate to the settlement of the town ; whereas, at present, conveyancers scarcely ever extend their investiga- tions back of the present century. I have thus a familiarity w^ith the names of the early owners of real estate among us which my successors have never obtained or sought for. Further, our law permits an attachment of real estate on mesne pro- cess to secure a debt ; and I have an alphabetical list of all those whose estates have been thus en- cumbered since 1831. As it is now provided that record-books of attachments shall be kept by the clerks of the several courts, no such private list exists anywhere else.

In connection wdtli these my professional re- searches, I have now in my possession strictly alphabetical indices, to the extent of three thousand pages, of names of persons who have been parties to

XIV PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION.

conveyances from the settlement of the country, or defendants in suits in our courts, or who have taken the benefit of the late Bankrupt Law of the United States, or whose estates have been administered upon in the Probate Office.

I also own the original editions of Pope's " Iliad " and " Odyssey," in eleven large quarto volumes (1715-25) ; Thomson's " Seasons," both the original edition of 1730, and a very rare one illustrated by Bartolozzi, published in 1797 ; and the Macklin Bible, in six large quarto volumes, published in 1800, of which it is believed that only one other copy exists in this country. These works contain long lists of subscribers in England and Scotland. Many of the names embraced in these volumes and in our early records are now unknown among us.

" Miscellanies, in Prose and Verse, by Mary Jones," was pul)lished at Oxford in 1740, in the fii'st style of typography of the day. This Avork is dedicated to " The Princess Royal and of Orange ; " and aU the nobility and chief gentry are among the subscribers. It is in the possession of Charles Sprague, the poet ; and has been kindly placed at my disposal as quite a treasury of odd names. It is remarkable that a volume, containing at least one piece which no lady would now read, should have been, only a century

ago, written by a lady, and universally admired by the most refined and cultivated of the land. Who was Mary Jones?*

I am indebted to Thomas J. Lee, Esq., of this city, for a printed subscription-list for Chauchard's maps of Germany, Italy, &c., — a work published under the like royal and noble patronage, in London, A.D. 1800.

The venerable Charles Lowell, D.D., voluntarily sent to me several pages of names of members of the West Church in Boston during the last century ; all of which, however, I was gratified to find that I had in my own records.

There is in the Massachusetts Historical Society a catalogue of the books in the library of Harvard College, selected for the especial use of the under- graduates, printed in 1773. Of this collection, scarcely one book in ten is now seen or heard of. It has furnished me with several remarkable names. It recommends the " History of England, 5 vols. 8vo, by Mrs. Catherine Macauley ; " of whom Dr. Johnson said, " There was one Mrs. Macauley in this town, — a great republican." Ozanam's " Cursus Mathematicus " has a less familiar sound to our ears than Macaulays " History of England."

* This question has been since answered by Allibone's " Dictionary of Authors."

XVI PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITIO>\

The names on tombs are chiefly from Tissington's " Epitaphs," London, 1857 ; a few being obtained from Dr. Johnson's " Collection of Epitaphs," Lon- don. 1806.

The early Colonial Records, recently printed by authority of the Commonwealth, in six splendid quarto volumes, contain A'ery many of the most curious names in the following collection ; viz., aU to which ancient dates are affixed.

"Within a few weeks, the London Dii-ectory for 1858 was sent to me by Frederick AY. Thayer, Esq. ; but its appalhng dimensions, and the progress which I had already made in printing this edition, have pre- vented my availing myself of his courtesy to any considerable extent.

The great work of Agassiz, so honorable to the country of his adoption, of which the first two volumes appeared in November, 1857, has a long list of subscribers throughout all the States of the L^nion.

The financial crisis of 1857 led to the publication of lists of those who became insolvent in all our chief cities.

From these sources, and from the perusal of the City Directories of Boston and Salem, of New York and Philadelphia, the Business Directories of New

England and Canada, the American Almanacs, the Navy Register for 1849, the College Catalogues of Harvard and Yale, and of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, I derived the materials for this publi- cation. Its preparation solaced the weary hours of a long confinement. It gradually became too volumi- nous for what I at first designed it, — a series of newspaper articles ; and it is printed in its present form, in the hope, that, although it possesses no permanent interest or value, others may derive from its perusal somewhat of the amusement which it has aff'orded to mvself.

In 1857, I printed, for private distribution, a few copies of a collection of surnames prepared almost exclusively from my own volumes of Records and the works in my library. A kind notice of my little volume from the other side of the Atlantic (" House- hold Words," 1857) awaked a curiosity respecting it beyond the circle of my personal friends, and induces me to publish a small edition. It is dedicated to a conveyancer of 1626, of whose claims upon me I first became aware from a late publication of J. Wingate Thornton, Esq. It has, I trust, been rendered more complete than the first by the use of the numerous

additional materials above referred to, and should now perhaps be entitled " Directories Digested ; or, The Romance of the Registry."

Boston, July, 1858.

PREFACE TO THIS EDITION.

This volume is seven times the size of that published in 1857 ; an instance of rapid literary expansion almost unprecedented.

More than eight hundred copies of the second edition of this work have been privately distributed ; and it is my intention that the two thousand copies of the present edition shall be chiefly disposed of among public libraries and other like institutions, at the discretion of my publishers.

" Travels in the Interior of America " — an inte- resting Avork by Anburey, an officer in Burgoyne's army, published in London, 1789 — was, in 1859, presented to the Massachusetts Historical Society ; as was also Dart's " Westmonasterium ; or. The History and Antiquities of St. Peter's, Westminster, A.D. 1742," — a splendid work, in two volumes, containing a catalogue of interments and monuments. I own an edition of the "Tattler," A.D. 1713. All these works have extensive subscription-lists.

XX PREFACE TO THIS EDITION.

I am much indebted, in tliis third edition, to Mr. John S. Hurley, of Boston, for the use of a volume containing, 1st, " The Royal Kalender for England, Scotland, Ireland, and America, for 1805;" 2d, "The New Companion to the London and Royal Calender, or Court and City Register, for 1 805 ; " 3d, " List of the Volunteer and Yeomanry Corps of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, 1804 ; " and, 4th, " The East-India Register and Directory for 1805," — together constituting a collection of names of about a thousand pages.

I am also greatly indebted to Allibone's " Diction- ary of Authors," — a most valuable literary directory, published since the second edition of this work, and which has as yet been completed only to the letter K.

In March, 1859, the family of the late William Crancli Bond, the distinguished observer at Cam- bridge, Mass., sent me a very learned and curious little volume, entitled " Remaines concerning Bri- taine ; but especially England, and the Inhabitants thereof, — their Languages, Names, Surnames, &c. London, 1614." This work is published anonymous- ly, the dedication being signed " M. N." It is really the second edition of a work by William Camdew, of which the seventh and last appeared in 1674. It is not in the librarv of the Boston Athen.npum. and

I had never met with a copy. It affords a striking ilhistration of the maxim, that " there is nothing new under the sun ; " since many of the divisions of this ancient treatise, in the short chapter on " Surnames," correspond almost exactly with my own.

To the Rev. J. M. Finotti, of Brookline, I am indebted for a copy of " The Reduction of Ireland to the Crown of England," t&c, published in 167-3 ; which contains the names of all the governors from A.D. 1172, and an account of the origin of the University of Dublin, &c. To the same gentleman I am also indebted for a small volume, entitled " Proceedings of the United-States Anti-Masonic Convention, held at Philadelphia, Sept. 11, 1830," containing a list of all the delegates, &c.

A. W. Thayer, Esq., of Northampton, Mass., wrote to me, in August, 1859, that he had in his possession a black-letter volume, entitled " A | Briefe Chronicle | of the Successe of Times [ from the Creation of the World I to this instant. | Containing | The Originall & Lines of our an | cient Fore-Fathers, before and after the Flood ; | As also, of all the Monarchs, Emperours, Kinges, | Popes, Kingdomes, Common- weales.

W. Jaggard Printer to the Honou- | rable Citty of London, and are to be | sold at his house in Barbi- can I 1611." This vohime is known as Mundy's " Chronicle," and contains 613 pages. Mr. Thayer courteously extracted from it between one and two hundred names for my use, especially including a list of the ancient Lord-Mayors of London.

Pine's engraved edition of " Horace," London, 1733, is in the library of President Quincy; and from its subscription-list, his daughter, Miss Eliza Susan Quincy, kindly copied for me many curious names.

I am under like obligations to Rev. Chandler Robbins, D.D., Daniel N. Haskell, and Samuel Wells, jun., Esqrs., of Boston ; to Prof. Torrey and Samuel Batchelder, jun., Esq., of Cambridge; and to other friends.

After the entire text of this edition, and the first hundred pages of the Index, had been printed (Nov. 24, 1860), I received my subscriber's copy of Lower's " Patronymica Britannica." I have added, in foot-notes to the latter pages of my Index, many very curious specimens from this standard dictionary of British surnames.

PREFACE TO THIS EDITION. XXlll

I will conclude with a few words of " personal explanation." I was born in 1805. Of a vigorous frame and active habits, I enjoyed, for fifty years, almost uninterrupted health. During the summer months, I seldom omitted a daily SAvim in Charles River ; and the coldest weather of winter rarelv induced me to resort to an outside garment. In 1835, on a bridal tour, I visited Niagara, and swam across that river, below the Falls, on two successive days ; and once^ when the thermometer was at zero, the gentlemen who had gathered around the fire in an insurance-office in Boston, proposed, as I entered the room, to subscribe to buy me an overcoat, because, as they said, it made them cold to look at me. At fifty, however, I ceased to be a young man ; and my dress was no longer such as to exert a chilling influence over my friends. In February, 1859, I slipped upon the ice, but did not fall ; and I supposed that I had escaped with merely a slight sprain, and the laugh of the bystanders. I had, however, injured the head of the thigh-bone ; and the result was a gradually increasing lameness. In June, I removed to my summer residence in Brook- line. Here, in an apartment curtained by forest trees, I sate, day after day, week after week, a pri- soner ; my sole occupation being the collection and

arrangement of the materials for the present edition, and the laborious preparation of the Index. On Aug. 2, a visit was made by my attending surgeons. I arose to receive them ; and in the effort to open the drawer of a small writing-table, which was partly be- hind me, I pulled it out so that it fell upon the floor. From this slight cause, a severe fracture of the thigh occurred while I was standing up. I have been thenceforth condemned to a state of horizontal medi- tation, which must last as long as I live. Twice already have I here seen the foliage of summer give place to the snows of winter. My misfortune has received every alleviation which science could sug- gest, or the kindness of family and friends bestow ; but my bodily pain and weariness soon made some fixed employment almost indispensable. I accord- ingly commenced the printing of this work in the autumn of 1859 ; and it has enabled me to attain a state of cheerful discomfort.

Until my confinement, I had never permitted my mustache and beard to grow : they are now of a truly patriarchal length and whiteness. Had my book been a grave, philosophical treatise, my head, with these hairy appendages of wisdom, would have made for it a most appropriate frontispiece. But, considering its light and lively character, I have

preferred a retrospective view of my face. The engraving is from a miniature painted by a British artist, while on a professional visit to this country, about twenty years ago. Truth compels me to ad- mit, that no one recognizes me through this disguise of youth.

If my volume shall sometimes dispel the cloud of care or thought from the brow of manhood, or call forth a smile upon the face of youth and beauty, I may perhaps hope, if not for the sympathy, at least for the indulgence, of my readers.

Brookline, Mass., February, 1861.

SUFFOLK SURNAMES.

CHAPTER T.

ORIGIN OF NAMES.

QURNAMES are known to have been assumed, in ^ some instances, before the Norman conquest ; but they did not become general in England until two or three centuries later. Every name, no doubt, originally had a meaning, or was at first assumed or imposed from its real or supposed fitness, from some accidental circumstance, or from mere caprice. Each individual is distinguished from his fellows only by his name. But for this system, history and biography could scarcely exist.

Christian names being given in infancy, and by friends and relatives, cannot, as a general rule, have bad significations, or be associated with crime and misfortune. What child was ever christened Judas or Barabbas X It is otherwise, however, with sur- names. These will be found to be of all shades, from the best to the worst, the most pleasing to the most ridiculous. They originated later in life, after the

2 ORIGIN OF NAMES.

character and habits of the individual had been formed, and after he had engaged in some permanent occupation, trade, or pursuit. They were given by the community in which he dwelt, — by enemies as well as by friends.

Surnames are traceable to several chief sources. The Christian names of parents : thus John, the son of Dick, becomes John Dickson. Dignities, offices, and occupations : thus John, the squire, sergeant, smith, or baker, becomes John Squire, John Sar- gent, John Smith, or John Baker. Countries, towns, particular localities of residence or ownership, including signs of inns : these local names are by far the most numerous of all, — perhaps more nume- rous than all others together. Bodily peculiarities, and virtues and vices, including names of beasts, birds, and insects (as wolf, fox, parrot, bee), or inanimate objects (as stone, flint, marble, &c.), a resemblance to which is suggested by these personal or mental traits: these, likewise, constitute a very numerous class. Accidental circumstances or inci- dents : thus the being born at a certain season of the year, or in a certain month, or on a certain day, or at a certain hour, may have been the origin of the families of Spring, Winter, May, Monday, Sunrise. Mr. Nine may have been a ninth child. Foundlings are often unkindly dealt with, being named from the rather objectionable buildings in or near which they are left exposed.

ORIGIN OF NAMES. 3

Fortunes are amassed and dissipated ; dynasties rise, and pass away : but one's name (slightly changed or impaired, it may be, by time) is yet safely transmit- ted from father to son, — an inheritance of to-day from a remote and otherwise unknown ancestry.

The London " New-Monthly Magazine," several years since, suggested the following " origin of sur- names ; " which jeu d esprit has since been published in the collected works of its author : —

" Men were once surnamed from their sliape or estate,

(Yea, all may from lii.<tory worm it :) There was Louis the Bui.Kr, and Henry the Gkeat,

John Lackland, and Peter the Hkrmit. But now, when tlie doorplates of misters and dames

CHxiPTEIi II.

SPECIMENS OF CHRISTIAN NAMES.

The names of persons, Christian and surname, form a very curious subject. Our records furnish some most remarkable specimens of both. I have known a lady with a masculine Christian name. Her father, tired of waiting for a son, had made a vow^ to himself, that his next child, of whatever sex, should be named John ; and he kept his vow at the expense of a daughter.* Sometimes a male Christian name is given to a daughter by mistake. Thus, a lady, hav- ing the Christian name of Cataline, died in Boston, in the summer of 1857. On the other hand, one of our merchants has the apparently female Christian name of Catholina. Mr. Mama Masson formerly owned real estate in our county. Parents of a senti- mental character often display their taste in the momenclature of their children. Other names are of a decidedly prosaic and practical nature. One of the streets in Boston is called Shoe-and-Leather Street. An honest carpenter, named Josselyn, was christened

* John Stewart. She died March, 1857, jiged eighty-two years.

b SPECIMENS OF CHRISTIAN NAMES.

Marquis Fayette, notwithstanding all titles of honor are illegal among us. Marquis McDuff also appears in our Directory. Our Miss Queen Victoria Brown was married Dec, 13, 1858.

A late counsellor of this city named two of his sons William : they are distinguished from each other by the middle names of Nye and Watson. Occasionally the family name is taken as a Christian name ; as Thomas K. Thomas, Aaron Aarons, Owen Owens, Halvor Halvorson, &c. Livingston Livingston, of New York, was married November, 1859. R. TuBERviLL Tubervill, Esq., was Sheriff in Glamor- gan County, South AVales, 1805. Hugh Heugh's Sermons were published in London, 1826. Hewer Edgly Hewer, Esq., subscribed for Dart's " West- minster." Sir Cresswell Cresswell is a learned English judge. Hem an, a familiar Christian name with us, is signally appropriate to every male child.

Occasionally a permanent joke is aimed at: thus it is said that Mr. Eobert New named two of his chil- dren Something and Nothing. This story is, how- ever, I believe, apocryphal. Of the same character, probably, is the newspaper anecdote, that a Mr. Ball named his first three children Cannon, Gun, and Pistol. Handy Crook is a porter in Boston; and True Scales, a mason in Cambridge, 1859. Mr. Hard Hitch, of Fairhaven, managed to drag along to his eighty-second year (1856). John Mariner Jonah, a medical student at Harvard, has a middle

name evidently suggested by the voyage in the whale. Ensign Sargent died at East Woburn, 1859. In our Directory is a Mr. Castor Bean, and also a Mr. Ivory Bean ; both, doubtless, from the same stalk. Quincy is celebrated for its granite ; and we have Mr. Quincy Quary. We have also Mr. Coffin Pitts (L. 388, p. 164). King George also figures in our records, and Mr. Dyer Greene. In the Bri- tish Army (1803) there was a Major John Pine Coffin. Mr. Anker Smith was an English engra- ver; and Mr. Savage Bear, a green-grocer for the royal household in 1805. Mr. Dandeson Coates was in the British volunteer service, 1804. A former undergraduate of Harvard College, named Spear, had the Christian name of William Shake. Gen. Scott, so distinguished for his military achievements, has the Christian name of Win field. Kutusoff was a celebrated Russian field-officer. Stirling Price is Governor of Missouri (1856). Mr. Louis Dorr lives in New York. Hurst means " a grove ; " and our Mr. Grove Hurst made many conveyances a hundred years ago. Fisher Tench, Esq., subscribed for the "Tattler." Mr. Always Gentler is found in the New- York Directory. Messrs. Major Depty and Bird Peat live in Philadelphia. Mr. Fish,* a well-

known resident of New York, was christened Pre- served ; and a Mr. Cuabtree,* of Connecticut, personally known to a late Professor of Harvard College, was christened A. Green. There are enough of that surname in New England to make quite an orchard. Of the same class is the name of Salem Towne, the senior member of our late State Senate. Though nominally representing the " city of peace," he has the military title of General. B. Mul- berry Holmes has made many deeds. Marshal Ney was recently indicted in our court.

Sometimes a joke is committed unintentionally: thus Mr. MuDD, at the South, named a son, in honor of the great Western statesman, Henry Clay Miidd. Mr. Supply Ham, of Portsmouth, N.H., was a like sufferer, being a living pork-advertisement. A Yale graduate of 1856, having the promiscuous name of Smith, identifies himself by the Christian name of Fairlamb. Mr. Pheasant Crisp, an overdone bird, subscribed for the " Tattler." Rev. Dr. S., of Albany, it is said, intended to name one of his sons for his friend Ambrose Spencer ; but, on his way to church, was dissuaded from doing so by the suggestion that the initials would be A S S. A Lexington farmer, a great Democrat, and admirer of the Old French Eevolution, gave to a favorite grandchild a name

which he had met with in the history of that period, and which was very popuhxr, — Caira. He had taken the first words of the famous Jacobin song, —

" Ca-ira, ca-ira, 9a-ira, En depit des aristocrats ; " »&c.

A married hT,dy of Boston (Mrs. F.) was, in 1838, about to sign a deed releasing her dower (L. 434, p. 295). I asked her name. Her husband said that she used the initial A. ; but that her name was Aldebarontiphoscoj^orn'ia. This name, also taken from a popular song, is probably the longest that a parent ever inflicted on a child. Christmas Carrol died at Lowell, Nov. 22, 1857, nineteen years old. Dickens's " Christmas Carol " is destined to a much longer life. Though length of years is so generally an object of desire, I never met with the suggestive name of Methuselah. Pleiades Orion Lumbkin was a former student at West Point.

Our Puritan forefathers often used as names long and pious sentences, and such expressions as Free Grace, Search the Scriptures, Accepted, Elected, Praise God, &c. Hate-evil Nutter is noticed in our Colony Records, 1649 ; and Faint-not Wines became a freeman, 1644. In November, 1857, Rest- come Case and Pardon AV. (Pardon Wicked ?) Case were parties to conveyances ; and have a fraternal affinity, at least in name. Mrs. Restcome Tripp, of Dartmouth, died Aug. 25, 1858. Miss Abovehope

WiLLARD is mentioned in the " Willard Memoir," 1858, as one whose birth, doubtless, agreeably sur- prised her parents. The London " Saturday Review " (July 30, 1859) mentions a Mr. Hickling as having the Christian name of Joseph of Arimathea. Hume's amusing list of the names of twelve jury- men in Cromweirs time is familiar to us all. With these Puritanical exceptions, even double Christian names were scarcely known in England till within the last century. Lord Coke, indeed, declares more than one illegal. Milton, Shakspeare, Locke, Crom- well, &c., were satisfied with one. At last came Charles James Fox, &c. Now they are extremely common. We have, among statesmen, John Quincy Adams and Robert C. Winthrop ; historians, &c., William H. Prescott, John Lothrop Motley, and George S. Hillard ; and our poets,* Longfellow, Bryant, Lowell, Holmes, Sigourney, Doane, Dana, Whittier, Frothingham, Willis, Brooks, Emerson, Tuckerman, Parsons, Fields, Hedge, Story, Saxe, Percival, Poe, Key, «&;c., all have middle names. Many, indeed, are not contented with two names. A married relative of my own, — who chooses to retain also her maiden name, — should she spread out her signature to its full proportions, would write

* The iiuthors of the " Aimtomist's Hjinn" and of " Thanntopsis " cannot with propriety bo ruiiked below a writer of even the exquisite taste of Longfellow. Perhaps, indeed, it would have been safer for nie to have mentioned all the poets alphabetically.

five distinct words, amounting in all to forty-one let- ters.*

The writer of "Britaine's Remaines " says, "But two Christian names are rare in England : and I only remember now (1614) his majesty, who was named Charles James ; as the prince, his sonne, Henry Frederic; and, among private men, Thomas Maria WiNGFiELD and Sir Thomas Posthumus Hobby." He proceeds to mention as " new names which have lately been given by some to their children, with no evil meaning, but upon some singular and precise conceit, — Freegift, Reformation, Earth, Dust, Ashes, Delivery, More Fruite, Tribulation, The Lord is Near, More Triall, Discipline, Joy Againe, From Above," &c.

From the catalogue of Harvard, it will be found, that, during more than one hundred years, there were but six graduatesf who had two Christian names. By the catalogue of 1859-60, it appears, that, of 431 students, 77 have one name, while 354 have two or more. The catalogue of Williams College gives a similar result ; viz., of 240 students, 37 have one name, while 203 have two or more.

We had both a Mr. Mahaleel Munnings and a Mr. Ret URN E Munnings ; and a former high-go vern- ment officer, Return Jonathan Meigs, got his name from the circumstance, that his mother at first de- clined the addresses of her Jonathan, and then asked him to return. Mr. Cumback is a member of Congress. Mr. Eeturn is found in the Dii'ectory. Mr. Usual Ivnapp, the last of Washingtons Life- guard, died in Xewburg, N.Y., in January, 1856. Among the Massachusetts men who took the benefit of the United-States Insolvent Law, I find Orion Broad, Salmon Ensign, and Socrates Frissell. In Buffalo, X.Y., is a business-sign of Adam Eva. Hemming Gadd was a Swedish statesman.

Samuel and Jonathan are names lovingly men- tioned in Holy Writ. They are also our national names. We call ourselves Uncle Sam. But, to foreigners, the proprietor of the " American eagle " and the " star-spangled banner" is Brother Jonathati ; and the portrait is so ungainly as to defy alike senti- ment and patriotism. Jonathan has, therefore, fallen into disrepute in these latter days.

Many odd Christian names may be mentioned as occurring in the records of Suffolk County ; such as Abiahann, Abiram, Achsah, Adin, Adna, Adoni- JAH, Adoniram, Albus, Aloys, Alphronus, Alsom, Alvis, Ambroscene, Amittai, Ammi and Loammi, Ammial, Amphion, Amundus, And, Annaple, Arad, Argalis, Ari, Ariel, Arnold, Artemas, Asaph,

We have Mindwell ; an excellent name for a wife. Miss Griselda C. Brabiner died at the very time (May, 1859) when Mr. Union Adams arrived here in a Cunard steamer. Debonair Farrar died in Boston in March ; and Mrs. Duty Phettyplace in Woon- socket, R.I., in May, 1858. One of our citizens has the Christian name of Trueworthy Muciimore ; and Zealous Bates, Esq., lives at Cohasset. The Governor of Bogota was murdered in 1859 by his brother, who had the Christian name of Jesus.* A late Heport of the English Registrar-General men- tions Mr. Eli Lama Sabachthani Pressnail.

Mr. Bell, of Atlanta, Ga., has the Christian name of Margenius. Dubartus is mentioned as a Chris- tian name in the " Willard Memoir." Sir Abstrupus Danby subscribed for the " Tattler."

Mr. Lumber Allen is a shipwright. Mr. Vespasian E. Flye has an aspiring Christian name ; and Mrs. Vesuvia Foster, a fiery one. Mrs. Minerva Gray occupies a humble tenement for a goddess, as does also Mrs. Vesta Morano. Urania is the Christian name of a citizen moving in a humble sphere. Mr. Ceaser Hodder is a carpenter ; Mr. Julius Knott- MAN, a peddler; and Mr. Artaxerxes C. Hoyt, an upholsterer. EpeAMiNONDAs Wilson makes piano- fortes. PoMPEY, Cato, &c., are names almost exclu- sively borne by our " colored brethren." tEneas and Solon have fared somewhat better. It is said that it takes nine tailors to make a man ; but the " Taylor " of American literature has as a Christian name the knightly " Bayard."

A clergyman in our vicinity has the Christian name of Grindall;* more appropriate for another profes- sion. Mr. DuFFEY has selected the Law as a Chris- tian name ; and Mr. Kay chose " Belcher."

A former patient in our Hospital was named Absalom. We find a Mary Magdalene Becker in Maryland, 1800 ("Willard Memoir"). We have AVanton Farnum. Cyprian, notwithstanding its seemingly objectionable meaning, has been often used as a Christian name : as Cyprian South ac, 150 years ago ; Cyprian Hall, 1857 (L. 718, f. 115).

The Stickney and Shattuck families have each had members named One, Two, Three, &c. I have met with Eldesta. Eev. Alpha Morton is settled at Acton. Omega was lately given as a Christian name in England ; but it can never be known to parents that further blessings may not be sent them. A father, doubtless intending that his son should have a liberal education, named him Dipluma. Another child, probably from being born on a particular kind of bed, was christened Matrassa. In our Di- rectory is the Christian name of Bedfield. Mr. Ari Davis and Mr. Person Davis, from the oddity of their names, may perhaps be brothers. The same remark applies to Mr. Orpheus Holmes and jSIr. Paraclete Holmes. We have a ]SIr. Maxim Beaudery,

Anastasia and Elisiph Staggers were sisters at Kingstree, S.C. Miss Eupiirosine Tubes, of AVest Dedham, was one of the best contributors at a late fair.

Surnames, from very early colonial times, were used as Christian names: thus, Cotton Mather, of witchcraft memory, was named for John Cotton, our first minister. This is now a common practice : thus we have Wtllard, Henderson, &c. Calvin and Luther are very common. One of my relatives, known by the Christian name of his mother's family (Ingersoll), found in his schoolboy days that this was abbreviated into Ink. " The Worshipful Samuel Sewall " had a son named Hull, by his wife who was a Miss Hull. In a collection of Almanacs belonging to him, there is an entry under date of " March ye last, 1685, in the night, Angel Torrey brings ye news of little Hull's being seized with convulsion-fits." I felt encouraged about his health by the next entry, " Tuesday, April 28, began to wean little Hull ; " but at last came the fatal sentence, " Hull moritui' — sepultus est ; " i.e., Hull is dead and buried.

Contrasted with this dignified name, I find, however, even more numerous specimens of the Christian name of Garret,* sometimes perhaps conferred from the circumstance that the parties were born in an ele- vated locality. In like manner, we have plain Michael Neville, Patrick Mortimer, Christopher Pembroke, Calvin Percy, &c.

Mr. Friend Cushing probably does not belong to the sect of Quakers. I find a widow with the Chris- tian name of Tamer : I know nothing, however, of her married life. Another, with the ominous name of Bellona, died in 1857. Mr. Valorous Taft is a Senator of Massachusetts ; and Mr. Valorous Drew is a teacher in Boston. The name of Opportunity HoppiN is found in an adjoining town. Mr. Virgil Delphini Parris was a former United-States Marshal in Maine. Mr. Sittgreaves Attmore is an attorney at Newbern, N.C. ; and Mr. Hairstone Omyx, an attorney at Stockton, Cal., 1858. In our own Direc- tory for that year are Garrd Daedmiaing and E.mial MoNGLiN.

The writer of " Britaine's Remains " devotes twenty- six pages to an alphabetical list and explanation of "usuall Christian names;" i.e., of men.

SURNAMES: THEIR GREAT NUMBER. — REMARKABLE NAMES: FROM LIFE AND DEATH; LOVE AND FEAR. — HOGGISH NAMES; SHORT AND LONG; &c.

It has been estimated that English surnames exceed in number thirty thousand. A perfect list of them all is probably unattainable, and would be but a dry and uninteresting catalogue. The present collection contains little more than one-third of the number above mentioned; being chiefly such as were deemed most curious and striking.

Biot, the name of the distinguished French mathematician, is derived from the Greek word signi- fying " life." Capt. Bygrave was taken prisoner in the Afghan War. We have Mr. Toomey. Coffins, Graves, and Tombs are numerous. We have one Seagrave, and one Bier. Death and Slaughter had formerly some living representatives among us. Death, indeed, is one of our oldest families (1679); and is also found in Canada and at Cincinnati. A Mr. Death made a mortgage to the Life Insurance Company. Mr. Slaughter was a commander in our

navy, 1849. Seven families of this latter name live in Philadelphia. In our Directory for 1858, there are two named Mortal.

ToDTLEBEN, the name of the distinguished Russian general, means " dead-life." An English author, Ilive, wrote in 1730-3. A domestic in the home of my boyhood (Salem, Mass.) was named Mercy Deadman. a ISIr. Deadman lives at Delaware, C.W. ; Mr. Dyde, at Montreal. There is a living Corse at Duxbury, Vt. Mr. Corse, of Burlington, lo., sub- scribed for Agassiz's work. Xo less than five families of this name are found in Montreal ; and families of Corpse exist in England. Mr. Jellicorse is men- tioned ("London Times," July 12, 1859). Mr. Mors is a graduate of Harvard. In the New-York Di- rectory are families of Todt (German for "dead"). Corse, Deadman, and Deady; also Dumsday (i.e., "day of judgment"). Matthew P. Deady is Asso- ciate Justice of Oregon (1856); and a Mr. Deady lives at Streetville, C.W. ; Mr. Buryhill, at Exeter, C.AV. Mr. Redgrave presented in Parliament the judicial statistics of 1857. Belgrave was an English author. Baldgrave's work on Trees was published in 167-4; and Mr. Bargrave ("bare grave"]) is buried in Westminster Abbey. Among the ancient Lord- Mayors of London were Wolfgrave and Oldgrave. Herser's Poems were published in 1812. Mort and Mortlock were the names of two officers of the Westminster Hospital in 1805. Bonehouse is found

30 NAMES FROM LIFE, DEATH, ETC.

in Philadelphia (a name which seems equivalent to a grave); also families of Corse, Corsey, Mort, and Tomb. Mr. Mumma is Chairman of a Committee of the Pennsylvania Legislature, October, 1857; and this name is also found in Dumbo, C.AV. Hannah Births was married at Woburn in 1649. Natale is found in our Directory, and only one Lazarus. Six families of Lazarus, however, appear in Philadel- phia.

The spirit of Devotion may yet be seen in our city churches, and his house is standing in an adjoining town ; but he is no longer visible, in the flesh, " on 'Change." One Scripture had a suit in our Supreme Judicial Court, 1855 ; and this name, indeed, is very common in New England, being sometimes spelled ScRiPTER. There are, I hope, still many families of Love among us ; but, with a single exception, they now walk about under another momenclature. Once they even gave names to our streets: thus Tileston Street was originally Love Lane. It also became a Christian name, here and elsewhere, among the de- scendants of these ancestors. Love Rawlins owned real estate in Boston. Mr. Love Straw is an engi- neer at Cambridge, 1859. In the Cathedral-Church at Peterborough is a monument to John Loving, who died 1781. Some of our best illustrations of Irish character are from the pen of Samuel Lover. A wit- ness at the trial of the "Junior " mutineers, November, 1858, swore that his name was Joseph Venus. Amo-

RY is one of our first families. We have also St. Amant. Mr. Amour was lost in the " Central Ame- rica," 1857. In New York, I find families of L' Amour, L'Amoureaux, &c. ; and, in Philadelphia, there are twenty-seven families of Love. Fear, I believe, has never been a surname among us : but we have Mr. Fearing; and Mrs. Fear Bourne was a landholder. Mr. Fear lives at Elmira, C.W. ; and Mr. Fearman, at Hamilton, C.W. Miss Feary died at Ashfield, May, 1859. One Fearon was clerk in the British Exchequer, 1805. We have among us the surname of Hope ; which is a name of great note in England. ]\Ir. Hoper lives at Shermanbury, Eng- land. Mr. Hopewell's house in Catland, Ind., was burnt May, 1858. Mr. Hopegood subscribed for Dart's " Westminster."

There was an interesting family group, the mem- bers of which respectively rejoiced in the names of Cord Cordis, Cord Wing, Fathergone Dinely, and DiNELY Wing. One of our thoroughfares was Hog Alley; but perhaps some will be surprised to learn that a Mr. Pighog appears in an early volume of our records. Jonathan Pigg, of I^edham, is party to a deed in L. 78, f. Q>Q. We have also Hoggeridge (1674), HoGSFLESH (1657), Farrow, Hoegg, Hogg, Hoggs, Shoats (L. 90, f. 230), Swiney, Swinson, Ham, Hamm, Bacon, McBrine and Brine. " Ham" appears of the most various kinds. Thus we have Oldham, Sellingham, Gooderham (a superior article),

"Wetpiam, Packham and Peckham, Whittum (" Avhite ham " ?) and Pinkham, Graham (" gray ham " ]), Frothingham, Cu>ningham, &c. Thomas Bristle- ham, of Poxbury (September, 1857), shows a most swinish taste in ncmenclature. Com. Strixgham is stationed near Boston, 1859. Topham is found at Newburyport. Gorham is a common name with us. Both Mr. GoREHAM and Mr. Badham appear in the '•London Magazine," 17-10 ; and there was a British medical writer named Badham in 1847. Sir Charles Hotham and Brig. -Gen. Whetham subscribed for the " Tattler." Mr. LA^'GHAM was a former member of Parliament, ^h. Loxgham lived in Bengal, 1805. Mr. AViDEXHAM was an Irish volunteer, 1804. BE^'T- HAM is a well-known writer. The British peerage has its Pakexham and Co^iyxgham ; and among the vice-admirals of the white, in 1805, were Pakexham, SwixEY, and Brixe. In the same year (1805), I find Mr. Byham, a clerk in the British ordnance depart- ment ; Mr. GoLDHAM, an officer in the British custom- house ; and Mr. Sweetenham, a lieutenant in the East-India Company's cavalry. Lieut. Stoxeham was in the British infantry, 1800. Wodham's Speeches were published by Amyot, London, 1812. There is a valuable catalogue of Archdeacon Wrangham's library. Mrs. Pack ham's death is mentioned (Galig- nani, Oct. 20, 1859).

" Ham " is an abbreviation of " hame " (i.e., " home ") ; and there are some combinations of

HOGGISH NAMES. 33

" ham " which expressly negative any hoggish asso- ciations. Thus, Miss Herringham died 1859 (Galig., Nov. 12); and Mr. Oxenham died 1680, and is buried in Westminster Abbey. There is a Lieut. Habersham in the United-States Navy. Dillingham's case is reported, 12 Mass. Rep., 57. An ancient Lord-Mayor of London was named Witchenham ; another, better known, was Sir Richard Gresham. Other officers of that city were Walsingham, Wilbraham, &c. Hexham's " English and Dutch Dictionary " was published at Rotterdam, 1660.

Choate, though a distinguished, is not an imposing name. It is, perhaps, a corruption of Shote, a young pig ; which name still exists in England. Burnham, in one instance at least, probably means a home hy the water ; the Massachusetts Liquor Agent of that name having, it is understood, been in the habit of " extending " his liquors. On the other hand, our Mr. Choate Burnham shows a decided leaning towards an animal origin. Mr. Swinsburg (i.e., " swine's city") perhaps came from Cincinnati. Catherine Swinford figures in the Life of John of Gaunt. I own Swin- den's treatise on Hell. Mr. Swinburne lives at AVhite Plains, N.Y. Mrs. Sowton (i.e., " sow town ") died in Kent, Eng., September, 1859.

From a late Review, we learn that a former pope had a name signifying " hog's mouth ; " a fact also stated by Camden. The name of Hogsflesh I

"What comic painter has ever surpassed Hogarth 1 Mr. Hogard was in the British stamp-office, 1805. Mr. Hoggart advertises in the "London Times," June 16, 1859. Burthogge's (" burnt hog's " ?) " Infernal Torments " was published in London, 1675. Mr. Porker was a London banker, 1805 ; and Mr. Porcher lived in Charleston, S.C., 1840. Mr. Pigshill has sittings at Mr. Bronte's church at Haworth ; and Mr. Hoggin is in the British Navy, 1859. Mr. Piggon formerly lived in Connecticut.

When an action was called in court, not long since, a smile was produced by the announcement, that

Mr. appeared " for Gammon." Mr. Flitch lived

at Tirhoot, Bengal, 1805. Mr. Lard arrived here in tlie " Star of the West," from Panama, October, 1857 ; and a Mr. Lard lives in Philadelphia. John Wal- LowER & Son received a government contract for whiskey in Boston and Xew York, May, 1857. The name of Swillaway occurs in our Middlesex records, being probably a corruption of Sillowaa'. Dr. Swil- LERTON is a physician at Milton, X.H. In New York live families of Hoggs, Sties, Swilling, Swein, and SwiNEY. Mr. Hog, of that city, sells liquor. Mr. Hogben (Hogpen ?) lives at Toronto, C.W. ; and

Wallowbury, Hogavood, Hams, and Siioat, at Phila- delphia. We have Ogden (Hogden 1). Hogmire is a common name in Livingston County, N.Y.

Some names are very short. Mr. Ai Wheat made many deeds in an adjoining county. Ai Blood is a baker. We had our Bill Vose. In our Directory is Mr. Showe Ar, from the Celestial Empire. Mr. Ernst Au sells milk in New York. Using the initial letter only of his Christian name, he is Mr. E Au (the French for " water "). Mr. Ey lives in Philadelphia ; as do also three families of Ox. I have met with Si Er ; and this case always seemed to me the very essence of brevity. Even the Frenchman, Monsieur d'O, having, probably, a longer Christian name, must yield to this rival. Sa & Co. failed in London, November, 1857, in the Brazilian trade. Dees's " Insolvent Debtors " was published in London, 1843. Mr. Deas was graduated at West Point. Mr. Dea appears in L. 667, f. 170. Mr. Tuells ought to be considered as a name of tivo letters only ; and Mr. Dee, Mr. Kay, Mr. Pee,* Mr. Tee, Mr. Wye, and even Mr. AVyman, are obviously names of but one letter. Mr. Jey was in the volunteer service of England in 1804. Mr. EzzARD is a lawyer at Atlanta, Ga. Mr. Izard is Governor of Nebraska. We have very many names of three letters only, such as those last mentioned ; and Ade, Ash, Bie, Bub, Elm, Bly, Car (L. 547),

Gill lived at Parker's in fine style, and was buried with great pomp, but died deeply insolvent. Mr. Derth figiu'es in the Direc- tory of 1835 ; and Mr. Dearth, of a neighboring county, after enduring his name for many years, was at last induced by his family to change it. A law- student at Harvard is named Dearth. The English families of Houseless, Hunger, Need, and Want, have no representatives here : on the contrary, our records contain various deeds from persons named Plenty (L. 394, f. 247, &c.).

Arundel Verity, falsely and fraudulently converted to his own use funds designed for conver- sion of the heathen. Our Mrs. Potiphur is a nurse, whose bedside deportment has always been exem- plary. Our Mr. Marcellus was indicted for " break- ing and entering," Nov. 3, 1859. Mr. Welfare died at Rye, Eng., in that year.

Mr. Pontifex advertises in the " London Times," Sept. 5, 1859. We have the name of Pfaff. Pfaffe is the German for " priest." Mr. Outhout, of West Troy, X.Y., is reported in our papers to have eloped with his wife's sister, Xovember, 1859. In his religious sentiments, he is probably a come-oufer.

I find a iSIr. Tenant ; and we have AVirth, the German for " landlord." Both Tenant and Tennent are found in Philadelphia. Mr. Charter and Mr. Cade, I hope, alike voted for Fremont.

In 1828 there was a Sir Charles Lemon in Dublin, and there were English authors named Pinger (1734) and Knell (1660). Knell is found both in New York and in Philadelphia. Sir Godfrey Knel- LER has a world-wide reputation. Ximenes was a British major in 1805. Mr. Bender is a porter. Cavendish is one of the great names of English science. Capt. Edward Cavendy, of the U.

Our Defoe will never write a new "Robinson Crusoe." Our Gilpin has not performed any equestrian feats. Mr. Gulliver has ceased from his travels, and is at home with us.* Old Grimes is not dead : he lives in New York. Vanwinkle and Van WINKLER have only removed to Philadelphia. Mr. Iagoe lives in Hamilton, C.W. Mr. Shandy' (not Tristram) lives in Quebec. Our Mr. Lammermoore would seem to be a namesake of one of Scott's hero- ines. Mrs. Grundy^ is a housekeeper in Boston. Grundy's Sermons were published in London, 1808. "Mrs. Partington" is familiar to us as a nom de plume. Mr. Partington is a living reality in Bos- ton. Our Mr. Cottle is named Jonathan (not Amos).

* 111 1720 is recorded a deed of Jonathan Guli.iveu and wife (L. 34, f. 218). Just after tlie anonyinuus publication of " Gulliver's Travels," Pope, who, with one or two other friends, was alone in the secret of the authorship, writes to Swift in Ireland, under date of March 23, 1727-8, "I send you a very odd thing, — a paper printed in Boston, in New England, wherein you will find a real person, a member of their parUament {f), of the name of Jonathan Gullivek," &c. Swift, under date of May 10, thanks him for this newspaper, and adds, " And I remember Mr. Fortescue sent you an account from the assizes of one Lemuel GuUicer, who had a case there, and lost it on his ill reputation of being a liar," &c. Scott alludes, in a note, to this last as a " coincidence almost incredible."

Mr. Wiffe died in 1638; and yet the practice of smoking was never more prevalent. Mr. Pipe lives at Kingston, C.AV. Mr. WiFFER, of New York, was lost in the "Austria," September, 1858.

Mr. Landsee, of New York, has compassed sea and land to make one name. In England, there exist single names made up of opposites ; as Gocum, Fair- foul, Bindloose, Onslow (a family which uses the appropriate Latin motto of Festina lente). Dr. San- wiTH (" rope of sand ") published a narrative of the siege of Ivars. Mr. Stanfell (i.e., " stand-fell ") was a commander in the British Xavy in 1803. Heat and cold seem to be contending in the name of Lt. Dewsnap, of Greenwich Hospital, 1805. Mr. Lessmore appears in our Directory of 1857, and Mr. Shehy (pronounced she-he) in that of 1858. Rev. Mr. Ranslow is a clergyman at Georgia, Vt. "By" is a well-knoT\Ti abbreviation of " boy ; " and " ing " means progeny or descendant. Dadby's Funeral Sermon was published ITiO; and Olding was a London banker, 1805: names equivalent to Dadboy and Old boy. There was an English author named Grason. Mr. Featherstone, of Philadelphia, failed in 1857. Mr. Lightstone lives in New York; also Mr. Waterstone. Mrs. AVaitstill Trott, buried in our Granary Burying-ground, is an instance of the

like discrepancy between Christian and surname ; as is also Mr. Waterman Colman. The familiar name of NoYES is a contradiction in terms. Mr. Ducklow, on the contrary, has a name of which the two parts are in the strictest harmony; as has Mr. Bendloe, whose Legal Reports appeared in 1661 ; and Miss Anguish Crackbone, of Cape Cod, has, in this respect, reason to be entirely satisfied. Mr. Weinbeer, of New York, represents a compound more pleasing to the ear than to the tongue. The name of Thalberg, the distinguished pianist, means, in German, " valley- mountain." Mr. Burgthal lives in Philadelphia. Feuerbach (" fii-e-river ") — i.e., " a stream of fire " — is one of the distinguished names of the century.

There is probably more intimacy in name than in fact between Messrs. Hook, Staple, and Staples, and between Messrs. Locke, Key, and Keyes. We have Tukey and Tullock. There was an English author named Hookes. " Jeanne d'Arc " w as printed by Triphook, in London, in 1824 ; and Mr. Hooks, of Tennessee, subscribed for Agassiz's work. In think- ing of Mr. Wing and Mr. Bill, we are reminded that we have also Messrs. Finn, Finney, Phinney, Stil- PHiN and Stilfin. Miss Pinion, in 1648, as appears by our Colony Records, escaped from the meshes of the law; and Miss Woodfin, of Marblehead, was married in 1857. Messrs. Drake, Drain, Adrain, SuARES, Trench, Moat, Sunks, Foss, Pitts, Hole, HoLEMAN, Fall, Faller, and Falls belong to the same family. A^'e have also Chute, the French for " fall."

A Mr. RrcHARD Fell lived in Bolton, Eng., in 182L My washerwoman is Mrs. Bowlinwater, — perhaps a cor- ruption of " boiling water." Mr. Landfe ar, a graduate of Yale, is probably not opposed to investments in real estate. Messrs. Dulles and Fyler may both be found in the catalogue of that institution. Messrs. Batt and Ball doubtless played together on the Com- mon. The late able editor of the Boston " Courier " (Mr. Kettell) had as an associate Mr. Frye. Mr. Kittle appears as a grantor in L. 107. Mr. Caner, though his name sounds rather pugilistic, was a cler- gyman. Mr, Clinch and Mr. Lynch were also mini- sters of the gospel, at South Boston. Thomas Maule, of Salem, was a Quaker. The late Mr. Crackbon was an amiable, quiet citizen. The prosecuting attor- ney of Suffolk County is Mr. Cooley, who finds any thing rather than a celestial empire in our Municipal Court. One of the hymns in Greenwood's collection is written by Butcher, another by Toplady. Rev. Dr. Gannett, though named for a very stupid bird, has vastly more intellect than his predecessor, Rev.

More than one British writer has been named Dempster (a common hangman), and it is not an unusual name in this country. The Chi- nese Governor of the Pekin District (1859) is named Hung. Steinschneider's (or " stonecutter s ") " Jew- ish Literatiu-e" was published in London in 1857. Among the business-signs in Boston are those of " Henry Hyde — Boots and Shoes ; " " Eben E.

It appears, however, in the unmitigated form of Ha man, in the Colony Records of 1660. In 1781, there was an English writer named Rack; and, in 1761, another named Toll. Capt. Toll and Miss Toll subscribed for Jones's " Miscellanies." Mr. Tolefree was gra- duated at Yale in 1828. Lt. Tolfrey' and Col. ToLSON were at Fort St. George, India, in 1805. Mr. ToLE was a colonist in 1640; and Mr. Toll appears in our Directory of 1857, as does Mr. Tribute in that of 1858. In the New-York Directory, I find Mr. ToAL ; also Mr. Zoll (the German for " toll ") and Mr. Rack. Mr. Tolls lives at Newbui'g, C.W. Mr. Tax was a Congressional nominee in Pennsylva- nia, 1858.

Mr. Halpine probably came from Switzerland via London ; and our Mr. Fattican, who died 1822, unless named from his obesity, was perhaps born near the Vatican. The ancient family of Clampit is, after two centuries, still extant among us in the wife of a well-known artist. Five families of Clampitt live in Philadelphia ; and Mr. Clampett lives in Lon- don, C.W. John Earthy settled among us in 1674. Mr. Erthman subscribed for the " Tattler." In 1790,

there was an English author named Smellie. Our Essence is a black man : Mr. Savory and Mr. Otto, however, are white. The autograph of John Oder, Boston, April 4, 1782, was advertised for sale, 1859. Among oiu' recent marriages are those of Mr. Laven- der and Miss Garlick. Mr. Garlic lives at Toronto, C.W. Mr. Garlike was British minister at Copen- hagen in 1805. One of England's belles in the last century was "the beautiful Molly Lepel."* Miss Lebel lives at St. Thomas, C.E. Mrs. Plato is a black woman. The noble house of Nassau has its representative in a hairdresser. Mr. Valois makes boots. Mr. Brunswick dealt in furniture. Mr. Ha- nover is a clerk ; and Mr. Lorrain, a housewright. The great name of Warwick is borne by only one poor widow among us. Este flourishes at Toledo, O. Tudor holds its own. Titus has namesakes among us. Mr. Priam, of New York, is a waiter. Among the Messrs. As ay, of Philadelphia, not one is con- nected with the mint. Julius C^sar was knighted, and became Master of the Rolls, in England, a hun- dred and twenty-five years ago ; but our Cesar is only a hairdresser.

Our Canning was sued for breach of promise, February, 1859. Our Homer, Pindar, Tasso, Milton, Dryden, Waller, Schiller, and Byron, and our Tate and Brady, have no poetic aspirations. Mr. Dante is a laborer at London, C.W. Messrs. Juvenal, Boileau, Voltaire, Addison, mid Thackara, of Philadelphia, are not known in the world of letters. Our Tully, Erskine, and Curran, are not orators ; nor are our Rousseau and Cadmus literary men. Our Lockhart* is an upholsterer. Our Niebuhr and Manny' sell shoes. Mr. Virgil, of New York, is an expressman. Mr. Sophocles, however, is an instructor in our Uni- versity ; and there was lately a Prof. Tully of Yale College. One of our Sheridans is connected with the theatre ; but our Drury is not, nor are our Quins or QuiNNs. Our Mendelson is a peddler. Our Beede will not probably be known to posterity as " the venerable." The dignified name of Mendoza is borne by a cigar-maker. Our Sidney is a tailor. Of our four Talbots, two have the occupation of " ser- vant " and " laborer." Our Davie, though not a philosopher, was a baronet.

Mr. Bogy, the banker, of St. Louis, foimd himself in an insecure position in September, 1857; and even Mr. PocKiiiLL, of Philadelphia, yielded to the pressure of the times. The two firms of Bottom & Co., of New Jersey, also got to the bottom of their resources at the same period. Mr. Gotham probably never saw New York. Messrs. Goldstone, of Cobourg and of Toronto, C.W., and Mr. Nogget (168i), did not come from California. Mr. Harlem is out of his latitude. George Loyall, of Norfolk, being a navy agent, is doubtless a good patriot. ]Mr. Kingsland, of New York, did not become a refugee at the Revolution. jSIr. Carland's estate is not well situated for a railroad depot. Mr. Chatel, of Ottawa, C.W., is not a slave ; nor was Mr. Kilmaster, of Port Rowen, C.W.

Mr. Gravel, of La Prairie, C.E. ; Rev. Mr. Stalker, of Inverness, C.AV. ; Rev. Mr. Olscamps, of St. Stanislas de Batiscan, C.E., — form a group of clergymen of rather anomalous names. On the other hand. Rev. Mr. Service reads the Methodist-Episcopal service at Lynden, C.W. Rev. Mr. Gunner, of Salem, Mass., and Rev. Mr. Rally, of Haysville, C.W., manifestly belong to the church militant; as did, in his day, Mr. Gunhill, whose ser- mons were published in London, 1661. Rev. Mr. Beacon, of Essex, has, no doubt, guided many a wayfarer in the path of duty. Rev. Mr. Godsell, whose ordination is mentioned (London " Times," June 20, 1859), has a surname as bad as Judas IscARioT would be for a Christian name. From the records of the Society for propagating the Gospel, it appears that Dr. John Colbatch (" cold batch "), Fellow of Trinity, dispensed the bread of life ; that Rev. John Broadgate pointed to the narrow way ; and that three chaplains of the society had the unfor- tunate names of Tyrer, Wendy (" windy " 1) and Badgent. Rev. Mr. Uebelacker (" bad acre ") is a worthy Lutheran clergyman in Boston.

Mr. Brick, of that city, is a mason ; and Mr. Cartman, a laborer. Mr. Brick- later, of Montreal, is a laborer ; Mr. Pumble, of Clinton, C.W., a wagon-maker ; and Mr. Saddler, of Adelaide, C.W., a harness-maker. Mr. Builder, of Caledonia, CW., is merely a cabinet-maker. Mr. Spurgeon, of Toronto, C.W., takes care of soles, not of souls ; and Mr. Hatter, of Ottawa, C.W., is a shoemaker. Mrs. Bloomy is a schoolmistress at St. Zepherine, C.E., — an employment decidedly unfa- vorable to the complexion. Mr. Dew was " collector of dues " for the West-India Dock Company, London, 1805 ; and Mr. Passman was its messenger.

The Paddy family, though specifically extinct, is still the largest in Boston. We have the names of Frail and Parramore. Mr. Pake arrived here in a Cunard steamer, Xovember, 1857. Many a Hussey may be met with. Leeman Lemans, Haradons, Har- radens, Harridans, and Trui.Ls * abound ; and Wan-

TONs * have disappeared from among us only in name. Harlots, however, are not found here, though they are in London. Among the unfortunate passengers of the "Central America" (1857) was one named Fallen ; and our Mr. Fallen stole a door-mat, Octo- ber, 1858. Mr. Frailey was a lieutenant in our navy in 1849. Both Frailey and Fraily are found in New York ; and, in Philadelphia, I find Fallen, Paramore, Parremore, with no less than eight fami- lies of Frailey, and sixteen families of Fraley. Mr. Letcher was elected, in 1859, Governor of Virginia. Kutter. is a common name with us ; and there are twenty-one families of that name in Philadelphia. Rev. Samuel Rutter, D.D., was a former Bishop of Sodor and Man. Bawdes's case is cited, 7 Gray's Reports, 140. A libel is pending in our United- States District Court against Mr. Rapes. Mr. Rape is a subscriber to one of our religious journals. Among German naturalists is found Mr. Pander (1818). Well, indeed, may the poet exclaim, —

" Not to mention many a vulgar name, That would make a doorplate blush for shame, If doorplates were not so brazen ! "

Mr. Gess lives in Philadelphia. We have also Whytall, Whittley, Cutting, and Whittle. Both Whittle and Wittle are found in New York. Mr. Whitling is a London author, 1858. Mr. Hackwood was an employee in the king's household, 1805 ; and, therefore, probably was not a Yankee. I do not find the name of Swap ; but Rev. C. E. Swope (a name before alluded to) was Rector of Grace Church, at Chicago, in 1850; and twenty-two families of the name live in Philadelphia.

The late European belligerents ought to have em- ployed as umpire our fellow-citizen, Mr. Royal Makepeace. Mr. Jobs lived in New York, — a name, in the plural, rather suggestive of city con- tracts. Our Mr. Job is a family man, and probably owns railroad stock. Messrs. Tittle, Blank, and Cyfer have insignificant names. Rev. Mr. Tittle subscribed for Dart's "Westminster." Mr. Blank- man and Mr. Aught, and Messrs. Cypher and Cy- phers, live in New York. We have Syfferman. At Philadelphia I find families of Blanck, Blank, and Blankman, two families of Dno, and six families of Null. Mr. Tittell lives at Preston, C.W. ; Mr. Ought, at Toronto, C.W. ; and Mr. Tweedle, at Glen William, C.W. Mr. Earless was sued in 1857. Mr. Mear made a deed in December, 1856. More is very common. Mr. Most appears in the Directory of 1857 ; and another Mr. Most lives at Hartford, Conn. Mr. OvERMORE was admitted a freeman in 1671, and Mr. Climax himself lives in New York. Mr. Very and Mr. Welcombe (L. 17, f 10) appear extremely

Mr. Woodnot was present during the last days of the English poet Herbert. Willing is found here, and it is one of the first families in Philadelphia. In New York are found the names of Doolady, Duduit, and Ducom, — all implying a pressing request. Mr. Winder, a passed midshipman ; and Mr. Toler, a midshipman in our navy in 1849, — have each an insinuating name ; as has also Mr. Lurem of West Roxbui-y. Mr. Joins was a sailmaker in the navy, and Mr. Shock was in the engineer corps at the same time. That important little word " no " is represented in the New-York Directory by eight families of Noe. Chil- lingworth was an eminent English divine of the seventeenth century. Mr. O. Very lives at Chester- field, N.H. ; and Mr. Loth, at Bridgeport, Conn. Mr. Pass AVOW is probably a decided character, as is also Mr. Eid (German for " oath "). t

Dr. Physic was the first physician of Philadelphia. In the list of subscribers to Pope's " Homer," I find the name of Dr. Pellet ; a name which also occurs among the graduates of Yale. Rev.

Mr. Cars, of that city, is a carman ; and Mr. Carty, a driver. Among the late failures in the Manchester trade is announced the name of James Cheetham. One of the greatest judges of England was named Law, and Mr. Dunning has been seldom surpassed at the bar. Mr. Delight, of LawTence, cures bald- ness ; and his name suits his trade to a hair. Mr. Newberth, of New Britain, Conn. ; Mr. Newbegin, of Ellsworth, Me. ; and our Mr. Newman, — have probably names of a Puritanic origin. Mr. Amend, of New York, has a more modest name of the same class. Mr. Amiss, a London bankrupt, October, 1859, is similarly situated in name and in fact.

Many of our names have an undue share of con- sonants ; as Berstck, Bertsch, &c. Nitzsch was a German naturalist. Retzsch's Outlines are celebrat- ed. In others the vowels predominate, as in Keyou. We have one name without any vowel (Mr. Vghl). I find also, in Philadelphia, thie name of Shnpf ; and in Peoria, 111., 1858, Mr. Prrsch, — each as embarrass- ing to the vocal organs as some which occur in a late poem. In New York I find Sminck. Of a very mean and contemptible person, we say that he is a perfect Peter Smink. About the year 1800, there was a veritable personage of this name ; of whose character,

13

however, I know nothing. He was, by occupation, a bottle-w^asher. Peter Smink is one of the characters in a play written by John Howard Payne.

There are many fools still to be found, and some- times even in the first society ; but the wealthy family of Goose has become extinct. It seems to have been always rather a distasteful name : hence their convey- ances were sometimes made with an alias, — " Goose, alias Yergoose ; " and generally they sank the Goose altogether. Some of the most valuable es- tates in Boston were held by this family for several generations. Isaac Vergoose, in 1768, conveyed to Jonathan Amory a tract of land on Washington Street, at the entrance of Temple Place. The deed was recorded in one of the two missing volumes (L. 114, f. 26), and I got it recorded again in 1832 (L. 360, f. 199). Peter Vergoose, the ancestor, owned as early as 1662, and died in 1667. His son Isaac died in 1711 ; and, in 1734, a division was made of his numerous estates (L. 50, f. 220). One of his daughters was Elizabeth, wife of Thomas Fleet, the printer ; and mother of Thomas and John Fleet, also printers of note. " Songs for the Nursery, or Mo- ther Goose's Melodies for Children," was " printed by T. Fleet, at his printing-house, Pudding Lane, 1719 ; price two coppers." The titlepage is embellished by a goose with a long neck, and her mouth wide open. It contains many of the songs in an earlier English publication called " Rhymes for the Nursery ; or.

MOTHER goose's MELODIES. 99

Lulla-byes for Children." The new title was doubt- less a compliment by the printer to his Mother-in-law Goose for her valuable contributions to this immortal work. (See Boston " Transcript," Jan. 14, 1860.) Rowe's Pasture, on Bedford Street, through Avhich Rowe Street was laid out, and which measured three hundred and one feet on Essex Street, is derived from the devisees of IsaAc Vergoose. The Essex-street Church and the Rowe-street Church are thus traced back to a humble origin. A Mr. Goos still lives at New London, Conn. ; and one is found in our Direc- tory for 1858.

The analogous English names of Gander, Goat, Blunder, Folly, Trash, Mote, Chaff, and Nill, are not found with us. Mr. Trash lives in Bangor, Me., 1859. A likeness of the fost Lord Clive was en- graved by W. T. Mote. In 1805, Mr. Gander was chamber-keeper in the British Secrjstary of • State's Office ; and Capt. Go ate commanded the British ship " Sylph." The London " Tirie^ ' ;of Juii^v 1859, mentions the suit of one Goamhy '- Th€ firm of .G..W. Folley & Co., of Rochester, N.Y^, as niight .hfve' been anticipated, failed in 1857. Flat.man's Poems were published in 1686. Nihell's "Treatise on the Pulse " appeared in 1 744. Dr. Nihell subscribed for Chauchard's maps. We also have, in our Directory, Dr. Nihill. a Mr. Nill and a Mr. McNaught live in New York, and Nill is found in Philadelphia.

Mr. An SER appears in oiu: Directory for 1857. ]Mr. Greengoose took the oath of fidelity to oiu* government in 1674. Hon. Da^id Sears informs me that a Mr. Wildgoose was largely concerned in navi- gation at New Providence about twenty-five years asro ; and one of this name was domesticated as a clerk of Mr. Ebexezer Breed in Boston. In New York I find Gandar and Gander ; also Gans, the German for " goose ; " and a solitary Goose, with several GoslinttS; 'cWe'.have Gansman ; and one Gosling appeafs'in' our Directory for 1857.

Our Pollo is, per- haps, a corruption of Apollo. Mr. Ceres was mar- ried at North Cambridge, October, 1858. Mr. Iris, of New York, arrived in Boston, July 14, 1859. An edition of Pallas's " Travels " appeared in 1812. We have also the name of Gott (the German for " God ") ; and the diminutive, Goddy. Gen. Dieu was wounded at the Battle of Solferino. In New York there are not fewer than thirteen families of Christ, including a firm of Spies, Christ, and Com- pany. A Dr. Christ lives in London, C.W. Mr Christman was lost in the "Central America" (1857) We have with us Christe (Probate Records, 1731) Christian, Christy, Christen, Christern, Chraister Gilchrist, Goddard (" Godward "), Godbold, &c. also the angel Gabriel, and Molloch (" Moloch " ^)

In Phila- delphia are six families of Godshall ; also a Mr. Christian Godt. Mr. Godsall introduced a new variety of larch. The store of John Deity, of St. Louis, was burnt, September, 1858. A tutor at Harvard has a Christian name compounded both of the evangelists and the apostles, — Evangelinus Apostolides Sophocles.

In England there are families of Saint, Apostles, Christmas, Martyr, &c. A Mr. Martyr subscribed for Wild's "Dramas," 1805. A short time since, a man fell in with three young girls in Boston, who robbed him : he gave his name as Thomas Saint. I have doubts, however, as to this saint among sinners ; since, not long ago, some rowdies gave to the court, as their own, the names of our most distinguished Unitarian clergymen, and were fined accordingly. Mr. Selig (i.e., German for " blessed ") deals in caps.

* L. M. Sargent, Esq., writes to me, Feb. 13, 1857: "When I was in Santa Cruz, some years ago, I boarded in a family in which some Spaniards, male and female, also boarded; and I met them first at dinner. I was quite amazed by the words, 'Jesus, shall I help you to more soup?' addressed by one of these gentle- men to his friend opposite. Presently, ' Miss Jesus, a little of the,' &c."

Mr. Helmore was an English author, 1850 ; and Mr. Cuthell, a London publisher, 1806. The town of Dorchester, Mass., seems asso- ciated with Goethe's " Faust," by the fact, that among its early settlers were Mr. Deeble and Mr. Fowst. Maximilian Hell appears in the biographical dic- tionaries as a distinguished astronomer of Hungary, born in 1720. In the Xew-York Director}^ are ten families of Hellman. Mr. Helhodse was an English author in 1819. Mr. Myhell lives at Beauville, C.W. Among the graduates of Yale are three named Dib- ble. Mr. Dibble lives at Brookfield, Conn., and also in Philadelphia ; Mr. Tedfel (German for " devil "), at Bridgeport ; and this last is common in New York. Mr. Deffell was a director in the West-India Dock Company, London, 1805. Manteufel (" man-devil ") was a distinguished German in the reign of Frederick William ; and the family is doubtless still extant. Our name of Holl is, I believe, pronounced as if spelt with an e.

178 NAMES FROM TOWNS, ETC.

Hounslow Heath, formerly so celebrated for its high- wayman, is represented by Miss Hounslow, a patient in our Hospital in 1823.

All these classes of names doubtless originated in ancestors who came from the countries or places thus indicated. On the other hand, several towns among us, as is well known, have received their names from distinguished citizens ; as Lowell, Lawrence, Quin-

CY,* BELCHERTOWN,t &C.

The author of " Britaine's Remaines " says, " The most surnames in number, the most ancient, and of best account, have been local, deduced from places in Normandie and the countries confining, being either the patrimoniall possessions or native places of such as served the Conqueror, or came in after out of Normandy ; " and mentions, as specimens, Warren, Percy, Devereux, Tracy, Montfort, &c. He adds, " Neither is there any village in Normandy that gave not denomination to some family in England." He then mentions various families Avhose names are de- rived " out of places in Britaine, in other parts of France, out of the Netherlands," &c., " from places in England and Scotland infinite likewise," adding fifty- seven instances under this last head; as Murray,

* In this town there still lives, on his ancestral estate, one who unites the fire of youth to the wisdom of age. Like the monarch of the forest, still crowned with verdure, in him is fulfilled the promise of Holy Writ, " His leaf also shall not wi- ther." It is needless to add, that I refer to the Hon. Josiah Quincy, late President of Hansard College.

t The growing refinement of the citizens will at last prove fatal to this name, which has become very distasteful.

PROMISCUOUS NAMES. 179

Clifford, Cotton, Hume, Whitney, &c. He says, " Nor is there any town, village, hamlet, or place, in England, but hath made names to families."

Before surnames were introduced, an individual would naturally be identified by his place of residence, with the prefix " of; " as, John of Salisbury. " Von " of the German, " van " of the Dutch, "de " of the French, " o " of the Irish, "ap" of the Welsh, &c., are prefixes very extensively used as parts of the name, and which have this meaning. They may indeed also have the meaning of " son of ; " and be used as indi- cating descent, rather than residence. Thus, in our Directory, I find Von Arnim, Van Brunt, De Blois, t&c. ; and O's innumerable. It has been suggested, that Upjohn, the name of the distinguished architect, is really Apjohn.

Some have promiscuous names ; as Canale, Peo- ples, VoLK (German for "people "), Class, Fellows, Folk, Elders, Squires, Crowd, Garrison, Troop, Troup, Many (1665), Chapp, Person, Persons, Pro- vince, Thing, Jury.

Mr. Sparhawk (i.e., " sparrow-hawk ") has a more appro- priate name ; as have also Mr. Shears, Mr. Shearer, Mr. Skinner, Mr. Keen, and Mr. Scaley. Mr. Trick was permitted to serve on the Grand Jury (1674); and another of that name lives at Bowmanville, C.W. Mr. Blacklaw lives in New York. Mr. Carlaw, of the same city, can give only travelling advice. Mr. Greenlaw would seem to be equally unreliable. If the law be viewed as one of the black arts, as was once suggested by the late Douglas Jerrold, it is a curious co-incidence that its chief ministers are Coke and Blackstone.

We have several names which seem amenable to the law, — Mr. Swindle, Mr. Swindell, Mr. Stehl- ing, and Mr. Robb ; and, unless Mr. Sharper and Mr. Trickey are careful, their names will bring them into trouble. This last name is very common in Bangor ; but it is not known whether the family own Eastern lands. Some years ago, a Mr. Trickey petitioned to have his name changed, because he found it inconve- nient, as he dealt in horses. Mr. Hooker has also an equivocal name. Mr. Tricker lives in Philadelphia. Mr. Filcher Avas an ancient resident in Braintree. Sharpey's " Human Anatomy " was published in London in 1848. Mr. Pilford (" pilfered " 1) was an officer in the British Court of Exchequer.

f336 NAMES OF LAWYERS.

I received a printed sheet entitled " Monthly Cata- logue of efficient and reliable Lawyers, for May, 1858 ; " which, I am gratified to observe, is a very large one. I extract from it the following speci- mens : —

Smoote, of Magnolia, Ark. ; Chain, of Milton, Fla. ; Culyerhouse, of Knoxville, Ga. ; Kimple, of Charlton, lo. ; Gudgell, of Owingsville, Ky. ; Wam- PLE, of Mansfield, La. ; Scurlock, of Jackson, Tenn. ; MoBLEY, of Hamilton, Ga. ; Hardeman, of Clinton, Ga. ; Harrow, of Lawrence, 111. ; Suit, of Frankfort, Ind. ; Fuselier, of St. Martinsville, La. ; Reasons, of M'Nutt, Miss. ; Walkup, of "Wapakoueta, O. ; Cof- fin berry, of Findlay, O. ; Garrott, of Marion, Ala. ; Cunning, of Port Washington, Wis. ; Pullum, of Pickens, S.C. ; and Deuel, (" devil " \) of Stockbridge, Wis. Mr. Loving, of Bowling Green, Ky., seems to be out of place among these associates.

Boston may boast of being the native place of one most " efficient and reliable lawyer," — John Single- ton Copley (Lord Lyndhurst), — now (1858) eighty- six years old, late Lord Chancellor of England. He was recently elected a member of the Massachusetts Historical Society. Our venerable associate, Mr. QuiNCY, mentioned, on this occasion, a family tradi- tion, that the same nui'se successively attended upon the mothers of Lord Lyndhurst and himself, who were confined about the same time. Her touch seems

to have imparted to both infants an almost unprece- dented degree of mental and physical vigor. Since Romulus and Kemus, indeed, there has probably never been a more remarkable pair of nurslings.

Many names, derived from the Saxon or other sources, are made up of endings or parts which had an appropriate meaning. Thus Cott is an abbrevia- tion of " cottage ; " as, Prescott, or " priest's cottage." Perhaps, however, this stands for " prest-coat," de- rived from a tailor. For other endings in " cott," see p. 305, ante. U is sometimes WTitten for o : thus we have Wallcut, Wilcdt, Wilcdtt, &c. Brad means "broad;" and Ing, " a meadow; " as, Brading, " broad meadow." Ing also means " progeny ; " as in Bearing, Manning, &c. Hame, or Ham, means " a home," " farm," or " a hamlet ; " as, Bingham, Brigham, Bufham and Buffdm, Clapham, Cobham, Cunningham, Farnham, Kilham, Peckham, Perham, TiNKHAM, Trenham, Upham, Wadham, Wickham, WiLLiNGHAM, WiTHAM, &c. (and many others, a7ife, p. 32). Sale means " a hall ; " as, Ingersall or Ingersoll,* " meadow hall." Bury and Burg, " a house " or " a city ; " as, Bradbury, Tuxbury, Woodbury, Shenkburgh, Swanesburg, &c. (see also p. 299, ante). Ford and Bridge; as, Sandford or Sanford, Woodbridge, and the seats of the two great

CHAPTER XL.

NAMES ORIGINATING IN MISTAKE; TRANSLATED; CHANGED; &c.

Many names are undoubtedly the mere result of mis- take or mis-spelling. A late resident officer of our Hospital informs me that he has received bills made out against the institution, in which that word has been spelt in forty-six different ways, a list of which he sends me. In 1844, one Joseph Galliano died in Boston ; and, in our Probate Records, he has the alias of Joseph Gallon, — that having been his popular name. Plamboeck, in some of our con- veyances, became Plumback. These are names in a transition state. So likewise a Spanish boy, having the Christian name of Benito, pronounced Beneeto, who shipped with Dr. Bowditch in one of his voyages (as mentioned in his Memoir, 1839), became Ben Eaton;* and a foundling, named Personne (i.e., " nobody "), became Mr. Pearson. Our Bendix is probably Benjamin Dix consolidated. Mr. Bendixen died in England, October, 1859 ("Galignani"). Per- haps our Barnfield is but a corruption of the

• See Memoir prefixed by me to the " M^canique Celeste."

NAMES ORIGINATING IN MISTAKE, ETC. 419

glorious old Dutch name Barneveldt. Our Rawley is obviously Raleigh. Bakeoven (a?ite, p. 275) may be from Backhoffner, mentioned in " Galignani," Oc- tober, 1859. Jacques Beguin of Texas, as we learn from Olmstead, became John Bacon. The firm of Wehle and Weniger, in Roxbury, might easily be thus transmuted to Veal and Vinegar. Bompas has been corrupted into Bumpus ; and another French name, Gachet, is the origin of the two families of Gasset and Gushee. Bellows is supposed to be a corruption of de Belle Eau. The family crest represents " water poured from a chalice into a basin." The " beautiful waters " of Bellows Falls will for ever appropriately commemorate the name and home of the founder of this family in our country.* Our Dabney is supposed to be D'Aubigne. In one part of East Boston, chiefly occupied by Irish laborers, the streets are named for the poets Byron, Southey, Wordsworth, &c. Alexander Wads worth is a surveyor well known to many of those residents, no one of whom, probably, ever heard of the Sage of Grasmere ; and, in the deeds of their lots, the sur- veyor has very generally carried the day. We have also Wardsworth. Mr. Cisco is Sub-treasurer of New York. This family originated in a foreigner named John Francisco, who, for brevity, voluntarily

* See " History of the Bellows Family," by Rev. Henry W. Bellows, D.D., of New York. The writer of " Britaine's Remaines " supposes this name to be a corruption of Bellhouse, and regards the Bellew Family as derived from de Belle Eau.

420 jsames originating in mistake, etc.

changed his signature to John F. Cisco. Europe has a simihir name in Rev. F. G. Lisco, of Berlin.

The author of " Britaine's Remaines," alluding to the corruption of local names, says, " Who would imagine," &c., "Bacon, Creping, Alshop, &c., Harts- HORNE, and many such like, to be local names '? Yet most certainly they are." He thinks Inkepen is thus derived from Ingepen, AVormewood from Ormund, Drinkwater from Derwentwater, Cuckold from CocKswoLD, Smalbacke froui Smalbach, Devill from Uavill or D'Eivill, Neithermill from Netter- viLL, Troublefield from Turberville. These changes are made, he says, " by the common sort, who desire to make all to be significative."

Many foreign names are entirely altered by transla- tion. Thus Pierpont would be Stonebridge. And, if not translated, they often wholly lose their original significance. Thus the German Gutman should be Goodman ; Kraft, Sinn, and Lust should be Strength, Meaning, Pleasure, &c. In the London Directory of 1858 are the names of Gut and Gutkind (i.e., " good " and " good child "). Goodchap, in plain English, is found in their company. Richard Good- lad subscribed to the " Tattler." Goodlad's " Absor- bent , System " was published, London, 1814. A French family of Blanchpied, settled in Essex County, has had its name both translated and cor- rupted, — ending in families of Whitefoot and Blumpey; and a German named Rubsum, who emi-

NAMES ORIGINATING IN MISTAKE, ETC. 421

grated to Charleston, S.C, became, by translation, Mr. TuRNiPSEED. It is not only gravely asserted, but is considered to be proved, that the French ^-jour'' is de- rived from the Latin " dies"- through the changes of diurnal, journal, jour. In May, 1859, a Miss Foos was a patient in our Hospital ; her name being pro- bably a corruption of the German Fuss, " a foot." Many grotesque names are known to have been given to foundlings. A female infant left at a house in Otis Place, Boston, in 1856, was called Mary Otis; and one left in an outbuilding in Brookline, in that year, was appropriately named Fanny Shed.

Many other names have, from time to time, been silently changed. Thus the Blague Family, of this county, became Blake ; Everedd was altered to Webb ; Fitzpen became Phippen. It is well known that VoLNEY assumed that name to get rid of "Chasse-Bceuf." By a learned decision of the New- York Court, 1859, it was adjudged that Mr. Snook was justified in taking the name of Pike. Other names are pronounced so differently from the mode in which they are spelt as to be hardly recognized. Like the coin of a country, they are universally clipped and worn. Thus the English names of Cholmondeley, Brougham, Haworth, Auchinleck, MoHUN, and Cockburn, are Chumley, Broom, Horth, Affleck, Moon, and Coburn ; and a fellow-collegian from the South, Mr. Talliaferro, was Mr. Tolliver ; &c. Our own Thuolt, of Hungarian origin, is pro-

422 NAMES ORIGINATING IN MISTAKE, ETC.

nounced Tote. Such names, in the course of time, often become spelt as they are pronounced. Thus BuFFDM is supposed to be Buffham ; Pctnam, to be Puttenham; Frothingham, to be Fotheringham; &c. A Capt. FoTHERiNGHAM was at Fort St. George, 1805. PuLTENHAM Still cxists as an English name. One Cholmeley was an old Lord-Mayor of London. Snooks is kno^vn to be an abbreviation of Sevenoaks. Crownin SHIELD was formerly popularly called Ground- sell; and this name is found in New York. We have St. John, which is pronounced Sinjohn ; and that name is common in Canada. Our Sinclair is doubtless St. Clair. The letter " d " is almost uni- versally cut off. Thus Cold Lane^ in Boston, became Cole Lane ; and we have the name of Colburn (i.e., ''cold stream"). Mr. Colegrove, of Middle- town. Mass., and Mr. Colwell, of Philadelphia, sub- scribed for Agassiz's work.

Very many names were annually changed by au- thority of the General Court, sometimes decidedly for the better, but often with little or no improve- ment. It is a remarkable circumstance, that since the jurisdiction of this matter has been given to the Judges of Probate in the respective counties, so that sufferers in name can no longer claim the sympathy of the whole Commonwealth, the number of those who apply to the law for relief is very small.

A mere abstract of the names changed by the Legislature would be very amusing. Thus we find

Broadbrooks, 1805; Snupe, 1806; Bdmside,* 1807; LiNKHORNEW, 1800 ; Frickey, 1824 ; Tink, 1826 ; Slate, 1827; Crouch, 1832; Turn, 1837; Feachem, 1845; Pedder, 1847; &c. Mr. Pepper Mixer, in 1810, retained his surname, while he parted with his Christian name. Mr. Thode Coats, in 1814, fol- lowed his example. Samuel Quince Whitefoot, on the contrary, in 1833, liked his Christian name, and merely dropped the foot An entire family of Corpo- ral, in 1847, laid aside that dignity; and a very numerous family of Vest divested themselves in 1848. Mr. Thomas Jest, in 1850, decided that it was no joke to retain such a name any longer. Mr. Gest, of Cincinnati, however, as lately as 1857, subscribed for Agassiz's work. Mr. Mock, in this mode, escaped from the mockeries of his friends (L. 241, f. 36).

* a distinguished lawyer of Middlesex County, named Burnside, disliking his Christian name, in 1807 applied for leave to change it ; and, as he wrote a bad hand, it was supposed that he also wished to alter his surname into Bumside. The change was made accordingly; and, after suffering a year's penance, it be- came again necessary to ask legislative aid. Indeed, he did not fully become himself again until after two more acts of the Legislature, — Nov. 17, 1808, and March 4, 1809.

Sir David Ochterlony was born in Boston. Sam- uel Shrimpton formerly owned Xoddle's Island, now East Boston; and was one of our greatest landed proprietors. Exchange Street was once " Shrimpton's Lane." Shute Shrimpton Yeamans also owned Noddle's Island, and subscribed for a royal paper copy of Miss Jones's " Miscellanies."

The chapter of miscellaneous names still extant does not contain any of our names mentioned in the previous chapters, — a large majority of which, how- ever, are still found among us ; and the present chap- ter of extinct families is by no means a complete list, but merely a statement of those which have happened to come under my notice in my professional re- searches, and is chiefly confined to miscellaneous names not previously alluded to. To have repeated, under these two chapters, all the names mentioned in this volume, as being either extant or extinct, would have made it of an inconvenient size.

CHAPTER XLIIL

CONCLUDING REMARKS. — WORDS DERIVED FROM NAMES.

I HAVE now completed my desultory remarks on the subject of surnames. In classifying them, I have sometimes regarded their apparent rather than their actual derivations and original meanings. In some instances, as I well know, my analogies have been more fanciful than real. I was led to prepare these remarks by an article in the " Edinburgh Review " for April, 1855 ; and my attention was subsequently called to a little treatise on surnames, privately printed in the year 1856, by B. Homer Dixon, Esq., which I found very interesting and suggestive. After I had completed my collection. Lower's elaborate essay fur- nished me with additional illustrations. Had I seen these publications at an earlier period, the great extent of the subject would have deterred me alto- gether.

Many words in our language are derived from names either of ancient gods or heroes, &c. Thus we have martial from Mars, the god of war ; cereal, from Ceres, the goddess of fruits ; bacchanalian, from Bacchus, the god of the wine-cup. An epicure is a

WORDS DERIVED FROM NAMES. 467

most familiar word and person. Poetry deals in boreal blasts, (colian strains, and gentle zephyrs. We may speak with propriety of a village Vulcan. Her- cules may never have existed; but herculean^ augean^ &c., are indisputable exponents of his labors. His- torical allusions are endless. We speak of Van- dalism., of a modern Brutus, of the Nestor of an assembly, of a Xaiitippe, of a Platonic attachment, of a Ciceronian style, of a Shakspearian or Spen- serian stanza, of the Byronic school of poetry, of an Augustan age of literature, a Machiavellian policy, a Jeremiad., &c. We have also the adjective Elizabethan. We have Calvinism., Ariaiiism, and Mesmerism. Pasquinade is derived from Pasquino, a Roman cob- bler. Munchausen will always be the type of lying travellers. Ferdinand Mendez Pinto begins to have a better reputation for veracity than he had in Shak- speare's day. Malthus will ever strive in vain to check an excess of population. Patronage will always have its representative in Macenas., and Croesus will never be displaced by any modern Rothschild. Sometimes the name is preserved, but with a bad sense affixed to it ; thus working positive, and not merely negative, injustice. For instance, Hector, Hectoring, are terms equivalent to bully, blustering. Indeed, the very goddess of grace and beauty herself has but given a name to the most loathsome of diseases. Gibberish is said, by the Reviewer to whom I have referred, to be derived

468

from Geber, the alchemist ; and freak is stated by Dr. Doran to be derived from the caprices of a Dr. Freake of St. Bartholomew's. Earl Spencer and Lord Raglan will each be remembered by an outside gar- ment ; Kossuth^ by a hat ; and Sir William Congreve, by his rockets. We have the Bartlett pear, one of our choicest varieties of that fruit. Col. Bowie s name is affixed to the deadly knife of the American frontier s-man. The names of other persons are still preserved in popular phrases ; such as, " Before I could say Jack Eobinson ; " and " My eye and Betty Martin ; "* " Hobson's choice ; " &c. But who were they?

Xo men or women have more truly lived than those described in some works of fiction ; and, from some of these, various words have been derived. The hero of La Mancha figures in every Quixotic enter- prise, and lawyers and politicians daily abuse each other in a Pickwickian sense. Shylock stands forth for ever the embodiment of avarice.

Discoverers and inventors have not always had justice done them in the matter of nomenclature. Thus America t is named for one who did not dis-

* This phrase is said to have originated from a sailor's account to his ship- mates of what he lieard in churcli, where they were chantinj; an invocation to St. Martin. Tiie words which he had heard and misunderstood were, " Mihi, Beate Martine," &c.

t This name has been lately vindicated quite ingeniously as derived from the Italianized form of the German "Emmerich," which is regarded as a contraction of the Gothic " Ainnanareiks;" and, as applied to a country, is considered as mean- ing " Most sublime dominion." — B. ILmier Dixon.

cover it, — a flagrant wrong, which poetry in vain attempts to redress in " Hail, Columbia, happy land," &c. A short name stands a mncli better chance of commemoration than a long one ; and yet Daguerre is immortalized in the daguerreotype. Dr. Guillotin, acting from a benevolent purpose of producing insen- sibility to pain under peculiarly disagreeable circum- stances, will go down to posterity as a monster of cruelty. Persons rendered insensible by ether, during surgical operations, ought to be spoken of as Mor- tonized. We speak of Macadamized roads ; and, in this latitude, we hear of the Nicolson pavement. Science has its voltaic battery ; and ^ the verb to galvanize is very expressive, and entirely legitimate beyond the limits of science : but Fulton's name will never supersede the more significant word steamer.

Celebrated events of mythology and history are thus perpetuated. We speak familiarly of " crossing the Rubicon," of "an apple of discord," of "Pandora's box," &c. American editors thought, till the fall of Sebastopol, that the Russian would prove as long as the Trojan war. Marathon and Thermopylae belong to the geography of freedom. The Colossus may be a myth ; but we have colossal. Such is the origin of many of our proverbial aphorisms. Words are some- times coined with a general signification from parti- cular striking instances of the conduct which they describe ; as, nepotism. Some crimes are of such atrocity, that the perpetrator s name is at once appro-

priated to them. Thus, to murder for the sake of selling the dead body is to Burke ; so the systematic species of secret murder, extensively practised in India, has enriched the language with Tkug. The summary proceedings of Judge Lynch have also given us a new word. If we had not already the verb " to hum- bug," Barnum would, I think, stand a very fair chance of verbal immortality.

Squatter has, Avith us, its appropriate significa- tion of a possessor or actual occupant of lands without title. The subject of squatter sovereignty, indeed, just now bids fair to be one of fearful national importance. Pecuniary defaulters are so numerous, that no one has yet given his own name to the pro- cess. Even the verb to Swartwout or Schuylerize has not yet forced its way into our language. The pub- lic is better pleased with the more general term, " to absquatulate." This expression, by its elegance, reminds one of the popular names of localities. Jeffrey spent his summer months at Stuckgown. In Dan vers, Mass., is, or was, a spot known as " The Devils Dishful." The town of '• Backbone " is found in Arkansas ; " Bad Axe," in Wisconsin ; " White Pigeon," in Michigan ; " Spreadeagle," in Pennsyl- vania ; " Why Not," in Mississippi ; and " Jolly Fraction," in Monroe County, O. " Bumpass " is a newly established post-office station in Virginia. An extensive fire occurred in May, 1860, in the town of " Painted Post," N.Y. " Baton Eouge," in Louisiana,

would not be improved by being translated into "Red Stick." The Post-office Directory contains the towns of " Bad Track " and " Broken Road," " Blue-Black " and " Yellow-Red," " Coffin-Grove " and " Dead- Man's Hollow," &c. ; and, among the recent mining nomenclature of California, I find " Rot-Gut," " Hen- Peck City," "Louse Village," " Ragtown," "Shirt- tail Bend," "Hell's Delight," &c. To Scotch ears, " Bannockburn " has glorious associations ; and the " Brandywine " is not the least of our rivers. We have had also our battle of the " Cowpens." The eighth Earl of Kildare was " general on the field of Knocktoe."

Politics give a temporary significance to the most absurd and grotesque party designations, — " Silver Greys," "Hard Shells," "Softs," "Old Hunkers," " Locos," " Know Nothings," &c. How instantly do the public tahe any allusion to Gov. Marcy's "pantaloons,"* or to Scott's "hasty plate of soup"! The simple words, " so much noise and confu- sion," have a marked significance as applied to political epistles. " The Law-and-Order Party " is but another name for Missouri Border Ruffians.

* Mr. Marcy, as one of the New-York judges, was by law entitled to charge the State for his travelling expenses while holding court. On one of these occa- sions, he had his pantaloons repaired at a cost of twenty-five cents; which item, by mistake of his clerk, was inserted in his account, and paid by the State. When he was subsequently a candidate for the office of Governor, his opponents had, at their headquarters, an enormous pair of pantaloons, mth a large patch in the rear, suspended across Broadway.

departments, are constantly creating new words. Prof. Treadwell, in a recent admirable pamphlet, suggests the reflection, how impossible it would now be to write in the language of Cicero the most ele- mentary treatise on mechanics or geology. While on the one hand, therefore, the names of persons may often possess much value and importance as indicat- ing the origin of the various families, and thus of the nation which they together compose ; on the other hand, the words in use in any language throw great light on the national character ; indicating, in an unerring manner, its social peculiarities, its degree of advancement in knowledge, virtue, and refine- ment ; besides often indicating its remote origin, and affording a means of approximately estimating the proportions in which its heterogeneous elements have at last become mingled together and consoli- dated.

The seemingly barren field of philology has been traversed by many an enthusiastic inquirer after truth, whose researches have enriched the literature of Europe and America ; and the few additional materials now faithfully collected may perhaps, in a slight degree, facilitate future investigations in a corresponding department of knowledge.

Page 5. — In our Directory is Rosy Walz; an har- monious whole, as the dance which forms the surname always produces the color indicated by the Christian name. Of the same character are the names of Rev. Rezin Sapp, who offered resolutions at a Universalist meeting in New York, May 9, 1860 ; and of Mr. Tredwell Scudder, a former member of the New- York Assembly. A widow named Desire Mann had several suits pending in Middlesex County many years ago ; and much merriment was produced among the bar by some humorous remarks of Chief-Justice Artemas Ward, when any of these actions was called up. Sometimes the Christian name is but the sur- name reversed. Thus, Mr. Eladsit Tisdale formerly lived at Deerfield, N.Y. When the initial letter of the Christian name is "A," an odd result is produced in business signs. Thus, we have in Boston, " A. Small, Grocer ; " and in New York there was a sign, " A. Rotton, Apothecary." In other parts of the country, parents have named their children for the continents Europe, Asia, Africa, and America ; while

Mr. Whitehead Hicks was Clerk of the County Court of Queen's County, N.Y., in 1757; and Mr. DioDATE Pease was a former County Treasurer in that State.

Two brothers, well known among us, have the Christian names of Theophilus P. and Peleg W. They occupy adjoining offices ; having, on the outside of the building, signs on which appear merely the initials of their Christian names, viz., T. P. and P. W. A gentleman passing by with a friend, and who was asked by him what these initials stood for, answered, " TadPole and PolliWog."

was to meet, in turn, at his house. He happened to have a new man-servant, who, when two of the guests arrived, asked their names, that he might announce them. Amused at such unwonted cere- mony on so social an occasion, they, being members of the bar, said, "Mr. John Doe and Mr. Richard lloE." Upon their being thus introduced, Judge Parker came forward with great cordiaUty, and said, " Gentlemen, your names are perfectly familiar to me ; but I assure you that I never expected to have the pleasure of your personal acquaintance."
