NEWTON MANN NEWTON MANN
The family of this name in America descends in an unbroken line from WilliThe family of this name in America descends in an unbroken line from William Mann, youngest child of Sir Charles Mann, who was born in England in 1607. At a very early day in the history of the Massachusetts colony William Mann immigrated to this country and settled in Cambridge, where he married, first, Mary Jarred in 1643, and second, Alice Tiel on June 11, 1647, was graduated from Harvard College in 1665, and soon afterward was ordained to the ministry and settled over the Congregational church in Wrentham, where he remained until his death, May 22, 1719. He is recorded as both a "learned minister and a great man," and was the paternal ancestor of Horace Mann, the celebrated New England educator, whose statue graces the State House in Boston. May 19, 1673, he married Ester Ware, of Dedham, and among their children was Samuel jr., who was born August 18, 1675, married Zipporah Billings, and died in 1732. Samuel Mann, jr., had thirteen children, of whom the youngest son, Dr. Bezalee Mann, was born at Attleboro, Mass., June 15, 1724, and died there October 3, 1796; his wife, Bede Carpenter, died in 1793. Dr. Mann was an eminent physician and amassed large wealth. He was an active and influential patriot during the Revolutionary war, a member of the Committee of Safety, judge of the Superior Court of Attleboro, and a member of the committee to report upon the first constitution submitted to the people of Massachusetts. His children were Dr. Preston Mann, a graduate of Brown University, a physician in Newport, R. I., where he entertained Washington and La Fayette during the Revolution; Dr. J. Milton Mann, also a graduate of Brown University, a physician in Attleboro, Mass., and later in Troy, N. Y., and drowned in the Hudson River; Mary, who married Josiah Draper and the mother of Virgil Draper, whose portrait and biography appear in this work; Dr. Herbert Mann, a graduate of Brown University, a surgeon of the privateer General Arnold during the Revolution, and frozen to death at sea; Newton Mann, the subject of this memoir, subsequently mentioned; and Eunice, who married Dr. Seth Capron, who was graduated from Brown University, studied medicine with her father, and served in the war of the Revolution.

Newton Mann was born in Attleboro, Mass., in 1770, and inherited all the nNewton Mann was born in Attleboro, Mass., in 1770, and inherited all the noble attributes of mind and body which distinguished his scholarly ancestors. He early imbibed those underlying principles of manhood that chacterize the respected citizen. His education was obtained in his native town where he remained till about 1806, when he came with Dr. Seth Capron and his family and the widow of Dr. J. Milton Mann and her children to Whitesboro, Oneida county, N. Y., for the purpose of engaging in the manufacture of cotton goods, which Dr. Capron had closely studied in New England. With Dr. Capron, Benjamin S. Walcott, Theodore Sill (who married Eliza, daughter of Dr. J. Milton Mann, and they were the grandparents of Edward Comstock, of Rome, whose portrait appears in this volume), and Thomas R. Gold, he at once organized a stock company and erected on Sanquoit Creek, on the site of the present New York Mills, the first cotton factory in this State. Mr. Mann was the principal stockholder. The Oriskany Woolen Mill was subsequently incorporated with a capital of $100,000 by Chief Justice Ambrose Spencer, Jovis Platt, William G. Tracy, Thomas R. Gold, Theodore Sill, Mr. Mann, and DeWitt Clinton. This company imported large numbers of merino sheep from Spain, many of them costing as high as $600 and $1000 each. These sheep were kept in the vicinity of the village, mainly on the opposite side of the Mohawk River, and one of their farms was called Mount Merino. The company continued business several years and prospered until the peace of 1815 opened our markets to a flood of importations. Before the year 1825 Mr. Mann withdrew from both enterprises and moved his family to Mannsville, Jefferson County, a village named from his son Major Herbert B. Mann, who in partnership with Judge Daniel Wardwell erected a large cotton mill there, which was burned in 1827, when ready to begin operation. There Newton Mann resided the remainder of his life, dying April 11, 1860, at the age of ninety years.

Mr. Mann was an old line Whig of pronounced convictions, but never sougMr. Mann was an old line Whig of pronounced convictions, but never sought nor accepted public office. An uncompromising Abolitionist himself he was a warm personal friend of Gerrrit Smith, Alvin Stewart, and other noted anti-slavery advocates, and during the great abolition movement which swept over the country prior to the Rebellion he was a powerful and an active factor. For many years he was intimately acquainted with the “underground railroad;” his house in Mannsville became a noted “station” and he personally assisted in passing large numbers of slaves on to Canada. He was a devout Christian and a member of the Congregational church, and throughout life manifested a lively interest in all charitable and benevolent objects, to which he liberally contributed. Kind-hearted, enterprising, and sagacious he merited and retained the confidence, respect, and esteem of his fellowmen and bore the highest reputation for honesty, integrity, and moral uprightness. He was a good businessman, a shrewd investor, and an able financier, and realized handsome profits from his various investments.

Mr. Mann was married in 1795 to Miss Abigail, daughter of Josiah Maxcey, gMr. Mann was married in 1795 to Miss Abigail, daughter of Josiah Maxcey, granddaughter of Lieut. Josiah Maxcey, of Attleboro, Mass., and sister of Rev. Jonathan Maxcey, D. D., successively president of Brown University, Union College and the College of South Carolina. She was born in Attleboro, in 1766 and died at Mannsville, N. Y., November 17, 1860. Lieut. Josiah Maxcey, an officer in the old French war, was the owner of a slave named Caesar, whose tombstone is standing in the graveyard at North Attleboro, Mass., and upon it appears the following epitaph, which has been reproduced in most of the magazines of the country:

Here lies the best of slaves, Now turning into dust; Caesar, the EthiopiaHere lies the best of slaves, Now turning into dust; Caesar, the Ethiopian, craves A place among the just; His faithful soul has fled To realms of heavenly light, And, by the blood of Jesus shed, Is changed from black to white; January 15th he quitted the stage, In the 77th year of his age. 1780.

Mr. Mann was a person of magnificent appearance, endowed with a large bMr. Mann was a person of magnificent appearance, endowed with a large but graceful physique, and in stature represented almost perfect manhood. Well-developed, dignified, and of elegant and commanding physical proportions, he was a typical gentleman of the old school. The likeness of him reproduced in this volume was taken when he had reached the age of eighty-five. At his wedding in 1795 he wore a blue broadcloth coat with crimson velvet collar falling below the point of the shoulders, a drab waist-coat and knee breeches, silk hose, low shoes with buckles containing French paste stones, and hair braided in a cue and powdered. His bride was attired in a peach-blow satin dress trimmed with brocaded satin, blue satin petticoat, peachblow silk hose, white slippers, and lace. These were elegant but not unusual costumes for those early days, and indicate the high and dignified positions their wearers occupied in society. Mr. and Mrs. Mann’s married life of sixty-five years was an uninterrupted course of domestic peace and happiness. Their love and affection were simple, pure, and ardent, unmarred by the slightest infelicity, and graced by a constant and consistent devotion as beautiful as it was enduring. There were inseparable, especially during the latter years of their lives, and always found the highest enjoyment in each other’s society. Their children were Major Herbert B., who married Julia Doolittle and was the father of the late Dr. John Preston Mann, the celebrated specialist of New York City; Hetty, who married Judge Daniel Wardwell, whose portrait and biography appear in the present volume; and Abby Maxcy, who married Dr. Roswell Kinney, of Mannsville, N. Y.

At this time, cotton mills were flourishing in Rhode Island and Marshall and Walcott could foresee a future in establishing mills in the new settlement. A partnership , known as Walcott and Company was formed on October 13, l808. The stockholders who purchased one share apiece were Benjamin S.Walcott Sr., William M. Cheever, Seth Capron, Asher Wetmore, Thomas Gold, and Theodore Sill. Benjamin S. Walcott, Jr. and Newton MANN each bought two shares, the price of which was $l,500 each. The Walcotts paid $239.07 in addition to cover the cost of the land and water rights for the factory. This land was on the east side of the creek, not far from its mouth and it was here that the Lower Mills was to be built. The Sauquoit Creek was an excellent power source and a very valuable asset to the factories which were to be built in New York Mills during the next fifty years. The forests and swamps helped to maintain a constant supply of water".

O.) is located in the southeastern part of the town, on Skinner Creek, 21 miles from Watertown, 161 from Albany, and 303 from New York city, and is a station on the R. W. & O. Railroad. David I. Andrus, as agent for Samuel Wardwell, of Rhode Island, was the first settler here previous to 1811. In 1822 Daniel Wardwell, son of Samuel, came on and took charge of the purchase made several years previously by his father, and in 1823 commenced the erection of a cotton factory, which stood a short distance below the present village, and was fitted for 600 spindles. Major H. B. Mann soon after purchased an interest in the factory, which was burned February 16, 1827. Upon the establishment of a postoffice here the present name was given to the village in honor of Newton Mann, one of the early settlers. David I. Andrus erected the first saw-mill here, and afterwards the first dwelling, which was subsequently used as a tavern. The village now contains two general stores, two drug and grocery stores, a grocery, flour, and feed store, a grocery, bake stuffs and confectionery store, a hardware and agricultural implement store, a furniture and undertaking establishment, three blacksmith shops, a millinery and fancy goods tore, shoe shop, a cider and vinegar manufactory, grist-mill, saw-mill, tannery, two meat markets, an hotel, photograph gallery, a lawyer, three physicians, several churches and about 500 inhabitants.

This project has only been made possible through the efforts of several voThis project has only been made possible through the efforts of several volunteers, directed by Shirley Farone, who has been a behind-the-scenes participant in this website from the very beginning. The original idea came from Sharon Patchett, who is also giving her time to the project. Sisters Marcia Alary and Barbara Britt, both of whom have been volunteering on other projects for the website, are also working on this, and the newest volunteer, Gary Roe, was one of the first to get his work in. We are grateful to each of them for making this material so easily available.

William Wardwell was born in England in 1604, and immigrated to America wiWilliam Wardwell was born in England in 1604, and immigrated to America with the early Pilgrims, as we learn that he was a member of the First Congregational Church in Boston, organized in 1633. His son, Urial, who settled in Bristol, R. I., in 1681, married Grace Giddings. Among their children was Joseph, the father of John Wardwell, who married Phebe, daughter of Samuel Howland, who was the son of Jabez, who was the son of John and Elizabeth, daughter of Gov. John Carver, who came over in the Mayflower in 1620. The children of John and Phebe Wardwell were John, Nathaniel, Joseph, Phebe, Susanna, Mary and Elizabeth (twins), Samuel (a sea captain), Tabitha, Daniel, Allen, and Allen, 2nd. Samuel, born in 1755, married Lydia Wardwell (his second cousin) in 1777, and of their 12 children, Daniel was born in Bristol, R. D., in 1791; graduated from Brown University in 1811; in 1812 located in Rome, N. Y., where he studied law with Judge Hollaway, and with Gould & Sill, of Whitesboro; was admitted to the bar at Jefferson County Common Pleas in 1814; practiced in Rome until about 1820, when he removed to Jefferson County; was appointed side judge by Gouvernor Yates; elected member of Assembly in 1825, '26, and '27; elected member of Congress three successive terms, commencing in 1830; and was again chosen member of the legislature in 1837. He married Hetty, daughter of Newton and Abigail (Moxey) Mann, in 1815, and their children were Abby, who married Robert B. Doxtater, in 1836, and died in Rome, N. Y., in 1881; Henry, who was born in July, 1819; Newton M., of Adams; Julia D., who died in 1831; Samuel and William W., who reside in Rome; Charles H., who died in Mannsville, in 1859; John H., of Michigan; and Edward H., of New York city. Mrs. Wardwell died in 1858, and for his second wife, Judge Wardwell married Lactitia W., daughter of Willard and Hannah (Wager) Smith, of Adams, in 1859, who now resides with W. W. Wardwell, of Rome. In politics Judge Wardwell was a Jacksonian Democrat, and in all his political and business transactions was noted for his integrity. He became a resident of Rome about 1860, where he closed his long and well-spent life, at the home of his son, William W., in March, 1878, aged 87 years.

DANIEL WARDWELLDANIEL WARDWELL
Hon. Daniel Wardwell was born in Bristol, R. I., May 28, 1791, was graduatHon. Daniel Wardwell was born in Bristol, R. I., May 28, 1791, was graduated from Brown University in his native state in 1811, and in 1812 removed with his father to Rome, Oneida County, where he entered the law office of Judge Joshua Hathaway, one of the pioneer lawyers of Fort Stanwix. In 1813 Mr. Wardwell became a student in the office of Gold & Sill, of Whitestown; in 1814 he was admitted to the Court of Common Pleas in Jefferson County, and in January, 1815, he was admitted to the Supreme Court as attorney. In those years he was residing in Adams and Ellisburg, looking after the large landed interests and other property of his father in that part of Jefferson County. IN 1816 he became a resident of Rome village, where he practiced his profession during that years and 1817. He then returned to Jefferson County and remained until 1821, when in January he was admitted to the Supreme Court as counselor. Early in 1821, he opened a law office in Utica and in August was admitted as counselor to the U. S. District Court. In 1822 he took up his permanent residence in Mannsville, N. Y., where he and his brother-in-law, Major H. B. Man, erected a large cotton factory, which was totally destroyed by fire in 1827, when just ready to begin operation. Its destruction entailed a loss to the owners of $10,000.

In 1824 Mr. Wardwell was appointed by Governor Yates side judge of JeffersIn 1824 Mr. Wardwell was appointed by Governor Yates side judge of Jefferson County, where he was elected to the Assembly in 1825, 1826, and 1827. In 1826 he caused considerable commotion in Albany, New York, and the river counties by introducing and advocating in the Assembly a resolution favoring the removal of the State capital to Utica or some other central point. In 1828 there was great political and anti-Masonic excitement in this State. Gen Andrew Jackson was running for president, De Witt Clinton for governor, and Judge Daniel Wardwell for State senator- all strong Masons highest in the order. It was one of the anti-Masonic years. The State was then divided into eight districts, with four senators from each district, and one senator elected in each district every year. The Fifth district then comprised the counties of Oneida, Jefferson, Herkimer, Lewis, Madison and Oswego. The term of Charles Dayan, of Lewis County, as senator, expired and in 1828 Judge Daniel Wardwell and William H. Maynard, of Utica, were opposing nominees. Mr. Maynard was one of the brightest legal luminaries of the Oneida county bar; the anti-Masons endorsed him and as Judge Wardwell was never afraid to "wear his principles on his coat sleeve," he was defeated by about 300. In return the Jefferson county congressional district elected him to Congress for three successive terms, beginning in 1830. He had as his colleague during his entire congressional service his first fellow law student, Hon. Samuel Beardsley, with whom he retained a warm personal and political friendship for many years, especially during Andrew Jackson’s stormy administration, of which they were staunch supporters, both being warm personal friends of the president. Judge Wardwell was elected for the fourth time from Jefferson County in 1837, and that year was a member of the committee on ways and means. In 1860 he removed to Rome, where he died, universally respected, in March, 1878.

In politics, Judge Wardwell was a staunch Democrat of the Jacksonian schoIn politics, Judge Wardwell was a staunch Democrat of the Jacksonian school until the division of the Democracy in 1848, when he affiliated with the "Free Soil" wing. In 1856 he was a delegate to the Pittsburgh convention which nominated John C. Fremont for president, and ever after was as firm a Republican as he had been a Democrat in the palmy days of "Old Hickory." Judge Wardwell was not a legal advocate, nor did he engage to any extent in the argument of causes in courts; but he was a good, sound lawyer and a safe counselor, one whose judgment and legal advice were sought after by a large clientage and always relied upon as entirely safe to follow the law, but also for his many attributes of head and heart. His integrity was never questioned. As a legislator he always labored conscientiously and unceasingly for the interest of his constituents and fully merited the trust and confidence which he received at their hands. He was kind, generous, and indulgent to the poor, a friend whose advice and counsel were often sought, and a man upon whom was placed the utmost reliance.

Judge Wardwell was married at Whitesboro, N. Y., on July 20, 1815, by ReJudge Wardwell was married at Whitesboro, N. Y., on July 20, 1815, by Rev. John Frost, to Miss Hetty MANN, daughter of Hon. Newton Mann (whose sketch appears in this work). She was born at Attleboro, Mass., December 16, 1796, and died at Mannsville, N. Y., September 28, 1858. Their children were Abby Mann, born April 11, 1817, married Robert B. Doxtater, and died in 1884 (Mr. Doxtater was the first superintendent of the Rome and Watertown railroad and held that position until his election as president of the Michigan Southern railroad; while riding over that line, attending to his duties, he was stricken with apoplexy, and died suddenly at La Porte, Ind., May 15, 1853, aged thirty-nine years, at the early dawn of a bright and auspicious future); Henry, born July 11, 1819, deceased; Newton Mann, born February 12, 1821, married first Elizabeth Jones, deceased, and second Mrs. Antionette (Waite) Sutton; Samuel, born November 14, 1822, admitted to the bar in 1847, married Mary A. Stillman in 1848, and now cashier of the Farmers National Bank of Rome; Julia Doolittle, born January 13, 1828, died June 11, 1831; Charles Carroll, born December 4, 1829, died May 7, 1859; William Wilberforce, born January 15, 1834, married in January, 1860, Elizabeth W. Smith, and now a leading hardware merchant in Rome; John Howland born December 29, 1837, married Cornelia Comstock; and Edward Herbert born April 28, 1841, married first Josephine Hitchcock, of Utica, deceased and second her sister, Harriet. October 4, 1859, Judge Wardwell married for his second wife at Adams, N. Y., Letetia W. Smith, who survives him and resides in Rome.

My Dear Children,My Dear Children,
I received your letters to day & was pleased to hear from you & that littI received your letters to day & was pleased to hear from you & that little blue eyed baby. I think you are having rather more than your share & we have none canąt you give one of the little girls to us now you must kiss them all for me. I am very glad your Father is Rail Roading again this side of the great Mississippi for it seems as if I should see you all again. I suppose you feel somewhat disappointed to think you are not going to see that silver lake quite yet perhaps it will be all for the best I hope so I am glad to hear your Mother is so smart I hope she will be careful & not move too soon it is very favorable it is getting so warm & pleasant. Aunt Sophia thinks your Father is so pleased with the baby he did not think to send his respects to her & Uncle George. He has a large class & is very busy making his garden. It is very dull in his store not doing much. I have had a letter from Whiteboro lately the friends are well as usual. Child with his family I heard were going to Ontario it seems to me that will be a good place for him. The land is so easily cultivated. It is very dry here. The gardens are quite backward but we hope warm rain & weather will start them along. What is Ella about? Tell her she must write after you get moved. When you come here again you must have some of your Motherąs skirts & stockings. I hope I shall hear from you often this summer. We have been painting & papering two rooms which look quite nice. We missed your little hen she got down behind a barrel in the barn & was gone 2 days when we found her she was almost dead. I guess if you had been here you would have taken care of her she is now quite well again.
Aunt S. & Uncle George wish to be remembered to all & Grandma too.Aunt S. & Uncle George wish to be remembered to all & Grandma too.
Yours affectionatelyYours affectionately

I did not forget your birth day that you was eleven the first of ApriI did not forget your birth day that you was eleven the first of April. I can hardly realize that you are in your twelfth year. I expect you will improve very much by the time I see you again & Ella too in reading, writing & all your lessons. I hope you will have a good school this summer.

"JOHN PRESTON MANN, M. D., one of the oldest physicians in New York Cit"JOHN PRESTON MANN, M. D., one of the oldest physicians in New York City, and an eminent surgeon there, died recently in Syracuse, N. Y., where formerly for many years he resided. He passed away in fullness of years, being at the time of his death seventy-two. He was from the beginning ardently devoted to his profession, an enthusiast in all that belongs to improvement and advance in his chosen art. It is believed that he was the first practitioner to undertake the cure of club-feet in adults without the operation of cutting the cords. Ever he was the fast friend of intellectual and spiritual liberty, interested deeply in all that pertains to the growth and uplifting of man. In the old years he stood dauntless and untiring, hopeful and faithful to the end, in the band of the abolitionists, co-operating with and sustaining Gerrit Smith, Beriah Green and their associates in the fierce and deadly struggle against slavery. Later he was in New York among the most cordial and steadfast supporters in the religious and philanthropic work of Mr. O. B. Frothingham and Professor Felix Adler. The life throughout was luminous with the qualities of high character and noble doing and sacrifice in behalf of others. Brief words, a partial report of which has been furnished for UNITY, were spoken at the funeral, by an old and life-long friend of the deceased, Mr. C. DeB. Mills, of Syracuse, N. Y."
