Sorry to hear about your crash, that's not something that makes for much

Thank you cousin Esther for the information you sent me. I was wondering
about Johns wife tho I have Abagail Spurwell as his wife and you have Abagail
Mournings. I wonder if they are one and the same since the birthdate is
correct? Also you have his mother as Grace Picks and I have Jane. Wonder
why.
My line goes:

Jay and Sophie (Schmidt) Sullivan

John Cloyes was killed by Indians.
He died in Cumberland, Maine (now part of Massachusetts) in 1676
(Cumberland County, Maine, is near the southwest corner of Maine where
Portland is found.)
According to World Book Encyclopaedia, thousands of Indians lived in what is
now Maine before white settlers came. The Indians belonged to the Abenaki and
Etchemin tribes of the Algonquian Indian family. The Abenake lived west of
the Penobscot River, and the Etchemin lived east of the river. They had
villages but often moved in search of food. Their enemy, the Iroquois,
frequently raided their villages. Maine Indians lived in peace with the
earliest white settlers.
The English made many permanent settlements in Maine during the early 1620’s.
The Council for New England, an agency of the English government, gave Gorges
and Mason a large tract of land in present day Maine and New Hampshire. The
land was divided between the two men in 1629 and Gorges received the Maine
section. Between 1652 and 1658 Maine was made part of the Massachusetts Bay
Colony.
New Hampshire separated from Massacusetts in 1680 and Maine remained part of
Massachusetts until 1820.
>>>>>>>>>
Cumberland, Maine WAS part of Massachusetts until the state of Maine was
formed in 1820 as a result of the Missouri Compromise. Missouri wanted to
join the union as a slave state. Northerners didn't want that, as that would
make more slave states than free states. So, Maine was created as a free
state to balance for Missouri being slave.
In 1690, the Indians attacked Falmouth and surrounding towns and drove out
all the settlers they didn't kill.......E-mail from Dana Edgecomb

July 24, 1774, and married Ruth Cloyes
October 8, 1799 and moved to Barnet, Caledonia county,
Vt., in 1803, and died there November
6, 1861. His father and mother were among the direct
descendants of Thomas Gleason, who took the
oath of fidelity at Watertown, Mass., in 1657, and died in
Cambridge, Mass., in 1684, and of
John Cloyes, who was a mariner by profession and settled
at Watertown, October 31, 1639, and
was killed by the Indians in 1676. Both of these early
colonial settlers left numerous descendants,
who lived in Cambridge, Watertown, Sudbury, Natick and
Framingham, and other towns near
Boston. Some of these descendents' names are found in
colonial records of Massachusetts as taking
important parts in public affairs, and others were
officers and soldiers in the early French and
Indian wars, and also in the war of the Revolution. Among
the native citizens of Framingham and
Watertown, who served during the war of the Revolution,
are recorded the names of Capt. John
Gleason and Capt. Micaja Gleason, and also Capt. Peter
Cloyes and Capt. Elijah Cloyes.
" Island Side Farm," the present summer residence of
Dr. Gleason, contains about 500 acres
of land, part of which was inherited from his father, and
the balance was added by purchase. It is
composed of two beautiful islands in the Connecticut
river, containing about sixty acres of very
fertile land, a portion of which is subject to annual
overflows, which greatly enrich the soil and
perpetuate its fertility, so that it still produces fine
crops of grass, though it has not been plowed or
cultivated for nearly one hundred years. The balance of
the farm is about equally divided into
meadow and pasturage. The soil is clay-loam, and is now
under a high state of cultivation and
produces superior crops of grain and grass, and is in a
rapid state of improvement. When this farm
first came into the hands of Dr. Gleason, in 1875, the
land of which it is now composed was in a low
state of cultivation, and the buildings old and inferior.
Two of the houses and barns were among the
first erected in Caledonia county. Four new barns have
been constructed with all of the best known
conveniences and modern improvements for successful stock
raising and feeding. One of these barns
is 150 by 45 feet, built over a cellar shed, with stables
for 100 fat steers. Another, 50 by 75 feet,
also built over a cellar shed, with stables for 100
calves. One for horses and colts, 50 by 45 feet,
and three other barns for storage of hay and fodder, on
the islands, etc. These barns measure,
collectively, about 500 feet in length, and 45 in width.
Those designed for stock are all
double-boarded with good hemlock or spruce lumber, planed,
matched, and grooved, and are made as
nearly frost-proof as possible, the proprietor fully
believing that hemlock boards at $7.00 per
thousand are cheaper to keep stock warm than fodder and
grain at $15.00 to $25.00 per ton. All of
the stables at Island farm are so constructed that the
temperature in the coldest weather outside is
never allowed to go below from 50 to 60 degrees inside,
and consequently very little food is
consumed to produce animal heat. The feeding of stock,
care, and application of manures and other
departments of farming, are carried on by Dr. Gleason on
scientific and practical principles.
Dr. Gleason has returned to New England, after an
absence of more than forty years engaged in
the practice of his profession in a distant city, because
he loves and cherishes the land of his nativity
and wishes to demonstrate that an old New England farm
may, by skillful treatment, be restored to
fertility, equal to any land south or west, and all who
feel interested in a new and improved system of
agriculture and stock feeding are cordially invited to
call at Island Side farm and see the results
and judge for themselves the value of his experiments and
methods.
Thanks Dorothy. No I have not heard those stories. They sound interesting
and yes I would like to hear them. I will prepare a GEDCOM file and send it
to you.

Sounds like a plan. Bet there are lots of descendants out there.
My name Stephanie Walker
9377 Fox Hill Drive
Port Republic, VA 24471.
I like The Cloyes Chronicles
Would be willing to contribute to newsletter and database - although not
sure how I could weed out just the Cloyes lines from my 100,000+ database in
which they are included. Much of the info I have on Cloyes I sent to Tom
when he was starting research, so he probably has most of what I have - but
maybe not as in depth on my own lines.
My line of descent is;
Peter Cloyes/Hannah Littlefield
James Cloyes/Mary Towne
James Cloyes/Abigail Gleason
Elijah Cloyes/Abigail Pepper
Betsey Cloyes/David Phipps
Abi Phipps/Gena Parkhill
Joan Phipps/Michael Belpulsi
me - Stephanie Belpulsi who married Gregory Walker.
My name is not Cloyes, but I do feel akin to this line over most of the
others I have researched. They are all SOOO interesting.
