Stephen French was granted land in Dorchester, MA, on 16 Jan 1632/33 so he came very early. A number of families came from Crewkerne on the "Mary & John" in 1630. Stephen French is a "probable passenger". Soon after he moved to Weymouth, possibly to join his sister, Judith French, who came to that town with Rev. Joseph Hull's group in 1635, at age 20. Another sister, Mary and a brother Jacob, also came to Weymouth, but just when is not known.

Stephen Maples was among the earliest settlers on lands in the North Parish of New London. He appears first at New London in 1712, when he, with others, were selected as watchmen, called the "Military Watch." He, with others, were summoned before the court of commissioners to show the titles to the land they were occupying and improving, upon the complaint of the Indians to the general court in 1720.
At the meeting of the commissioners, held at the house of Joseph Bradford on the 22d day of Feb 1720/21, the land titles which had previously been in dispute were confirmed to the occupants, Stephen Maples being one whose land claim was sustained. He resided in the north part of the Parish, near the Norwich line, and where many of his descendants afterwards lived. | Maples, Stephen (I60157)

StrangulatedHernia27 Feb 1935, Nels was pushing a G R City bus that was stuck in the snow causing a hernia. He died three days later. Nel's death record lists his birth date as 29 Mar 1884. This is probably incorrect as it also says he was 51 years old which would indicate 1883 was correct.
Nels Nelson's obituary appeared in the Grand Rapids Press on Monday, 4 March, 1935. Besides his immediate family, he was survived by five sisters. Mrs. John Johnson, Mrs. Charles Anderson, Mrs. Frank Berquist, Mrs. Charles Peterson all of Grand Rapids, and Miss N. Nelson of Sweden.

As nearly as I can trace them, our Haywards and Howards all descended from three brothers who came from Swanzey. Their ancestors were of Bridgewater; but father back I had not the means of going without too much cost and trouble* [see note]
The oldest of these bros. was Samuel Hayward. He planted himself in the town-seat of Mendon, by purchasing of Mrs. Mary Tapping and her son John a 20 ac. lot, as an original Mendon proprietor. This made him a 40-ac. lot owner, and of course entitled him to very large dividends of the common lands. Large tracts of these he had laid out to him on our territory, to the amount of between 500 and 1000 acs. Most of this land lay in one general body, extending from Sherborn Road, [Is this Rt 16?] opposite the present Mansion House, easterly of Joseph Sumner's estate, all the way down southerly to the "Upper Mill Plain," then so called; that is, as far south as where Plain St forks off from So. Main St. [I think this is rte 140 at the Milford-Hopedale Line?] In width this tract must have been between one-third and half a mile wide, extending to the river eastward, and in places over ther river. Elsewhere he took up numerous smaller parcels.
The next oldest bro. was William Hayward. In 1700 and 1701 he, then being of Swanzey, bought several hundred acres of the Rawson land in No. Bellingham, adjacent to our territory. Some 3,000 acs. of land were granted to Secretary Rawson, the first Edward, by Gen. Court, in consideration of his unrequited public services. He extinguished the Indian title to this tract, and took a deed. It was annexed to Mendon for government, and so remained till 1719, when it was made a part of Bellingham. The land William Hayward bought was a part of this Rawson tract, or "Farm" as then called. At the same time, Thomas Sanford of Swanzey and Thomas Burch of Bristol made large pruchases, side by side with Hayward, of this Rawson Land. It soon got the title of the "The Farms," being then owned in a few large farms. There William Hayward settled himself and his ch. Of course, being closely connected with our territory geographically and municipally, the cousins naturally comingled. I observed that in the Rawson deeds to William his name was written in one instance *Howard*, but wherever else it occured *Hayward*.
The youngest of hese bros. was Jonathan Hayward. He came into this quarter while yet under age, and res. with Samuel Thayer, as appears from the following recorded entry: "Samuel Thayer gave Bond[Jan. 28, 1692] for Johathan Hayward of Swanzey, resident with him." The bond was to hold the town harmless from cost for Hayward's maintenance. "Jan 3., 1707, there was laid out, of Samuel Hayward's fifth division, twelve acres, to his *Brother Johathan Hayward*, on both sides of Sherborn road East of Bear HiIl." [this seems like it would be the Milford land that Alice talked about yesterday, also where Hayward St and Field are located] Jonathan than settled north-east of Bear HIll, near the "Great Meadow," so called, and there became a comparatively rich man.
This is the note refered to above:
*Since the foregoing was written, I have had the pleasure of an interview with Hon. Alphonse Taft, who, on one side of his ancestry, inherits the blood and traditions of these Haywards. It has been handed down to him, that the parents of the first Samuel in Mendon were William and Margery (Thayer) Hayward of Braintree. Berhaps this was so. But, if so, William and Jonathan certainly hailed from Swanzey at the dates by me specified in this connection. | Hayward, Samuel (I15024)

The "Band of Michigan Boys," more familiarly known in Southwestern Michigan as Company D, was recruited principally in Battle Creek, Hartford, Lawrence, Keeler, Watervliet, Benton Harbor and St. Joseph during the month of September, in 1861, by Captain John Piper of Battle Creek, Lieut. Albert S. Gore of Battle Creek, Lieut. Stephen W. Duncombe of Keeler, and Sergt. Philip C. Dedrick of Lawrence. In October 1861 the company shipped to St. Louis, Mo., where it went into quarters at Benton Barracks, organized and attached to a regiment of "Western Sharpshooters," under the special patronage of Major General John C. Fremont, by order of the Secretary of War, Edwin M. Stanton. the Company was mustered into the United States service November 23, 1861, the regiment being called the Fourteenth Missouri, or Birges' Sharpshooters. It was armed at the time with the celebrated Demmick American deer or target rifle, each soldier moulding his own bullets and cutting his own patches.
The company saw much action from late December 1861 and until April 1862 was known as Birges' Western Sharpshooters. Known until November 20th, 1862 as the Fourteenth Missouri Volunteers, the regiment was ordered by the Secretary of War changed to the Sixty-sixth Illinois Infantry, "Western Sharpshooters," by which designation it was thereafter known, and the Company changed to D.
Our ancestor, Wooster Bryant, enlisted 22 February, 1864 at Benton Harbor, MI. He joined the company at Joliet, IL, 3 March 1864, on its return from veteran furlough. He arrived at Pulaski, TN, 8 March 1864. They moved on to Chattanooga, arriving there on May 4th. On May 6th, Company D with the General Army, under the command of General Sherman, moved forward on the Atlanta campaign.
Previous to December 1863, the greater portion of Company D and the regiment had discarded their "target rifles" and purchased the celebrated "Henry rifle" or seventeen shooter, at their own expense, which cost the men $50 each, the men owning their guns. Company D and the Sixty-sixth Illinois, Western Sharpshooters, had the honor, on the 9th of May, of opening the fighting of the Army of the Tennessee in this campaign, at Ball's Knob, Snake Creek Gap and Resaca, GA., unaided and almost unsupported of driving General Wheelers cavalry and brigade of rebel infantry through Snake Creek Gap, and holding until night the heights of Resaca. In this engagement is where the company's repeating rifles were used to good effect. On this campaign to Atlanta Company D was under fire for one hundred and twenty days, and participated in not less than ten or fifteen pitched battles, and innumerable skirmishes. The company assisted in the burning of Atlanta, and "Sherman's March to the Sea." On the 28th of January, 1865, the Company, with the regiment, left Savanna on Sherman's "picnic" through South Carolina. At Bentonville, NC, in the engagement of the 20th of March 1865, the Regiment lost eight men, "since which time it met no rebels to fight." Company D being in the first and last battles of the Regiment, Mount Zion, MO 28 Dec 1861, the first; Bentonville, NC, 20 March 1865, the last. The next march was to Goldsboro, NC 23 March and on to assist in the capture of Raleigh, marching for review in front of Sherman's headquarters in Raleigh 13 April 1865. On May 24th, General Sherman's Army of the Tennessee, the Sixty-sixth Illinois, Western Sharpshooters, and Company D, participated in the great, grand review at Washington, DC, where our marching practically ended. -1905
Wooster was mustered out of service at Louisville, KY. 7 Jul 1865. While responding for the 1890 Special Census of Union Veterans, Wooster indicated a war related disability. Sciatic rheumatism (hip).
