Returning again to the home of his parents, he determined upon the life of an agriculturist as the most congenial to his tastes, and at once became interested in the varied employments of the farm. The early death of his father threw upon him much responsibility, and make his assistance and knowledge especially valuable at this juncture. In the division of the paternal estate he chose that portion now the residence of his widow, located in Kearny township, Hudson Co. Here he erected, in 127, a commodious dwelling, which was destroyed by fire in 1870, and at once rebuilt. The healthful pursuits of a farmer engaged his attention for the remainder of his life.

Mr. Schuyler, was, on the 24th of April, 1828, married to Mary Caroline Kingsland, daughter of Judge Henry W. Kingsland, of New Barbadoes, Bergen Co., and granddaughter of Edmund William Kingsland.

14434 History of William and Sarah Ward Spackman

William Spackman, a son of John Spackman and Susannah Orchard, was born 15 Sep 1823 in Poulshot or North Newton, Wiltshire, England.

He was privileged to live his youth and early manhood in the beautiful, green farming land which is Wiltshire, where he grew and developed as a scientific gardener and was noted as a lover of fine horses.

He was an honored and trustworthy citizen of his native community.

On 8 Sep 1845, William was married in Poulshot to Sarah Ward. Sarah was born 1 May 1814 at Pewsey, Wiltshire, England, a daughter of William Ward and Ann Brown. At the time of their marriage Sarah had a son, James Spanswick, born 12 Jun 1840 in Pewsey. James' father died when James was two years old.

Five children were born to this couple. They were Ellen, John, Annie (Ann), Georgianna and Jane.

William and Sarah embraced the Gospel of "Mormonism" at the hands of Elder Nathan Griffen and both were baptized 11 Dec 1852. They were the only members of their families to join the church. The Mormon missionaries were always welcome and made comfortable in their home.

Earnestly desiring to join the main body of the church, the family decided to emigrate to Utah. They sailed 25 Aug 1869 from Liverpool, England on the ship "Minnesota" in a company of 443 saints under the direction of Elder Maurius Ensign.

They arrived in New York City on 6 Sep and in Ogden 16 Sep, just ten days later. What a difference from the ox team and handcart. They came on the first train that pulled into Ogden on the Union Pacific, the train being compelled to stop overnight at Taylor's Mill, near Riverdale, while the last spikes were being driven. They were met by a number of their friends in Ogden who had preceded them from the Old World and partook with them of a most elegant lunch provided for the occasion this happy event took place on the spot where Scowcroft Warehouse was built. They proceded with them on to North Ogden traveling up Washington Ave., then very primitive with chuck and dust holes in abundance, and a forest of sunflowers on the side.

After their arrival in North Ogden, William resumed his favorite occupation of gardening, with farming and dairying added in a limited degree, though with marked success, and still showing his love of good horses.

The home he built for his family in 1870 is still standing (1983). The present address is Rear 548 East 2650 North, North Ogden. The original was one room, all rock construction. The walls were two feet thick. It is said to be part of the old fort wall. The other rooms are adobe brick and were added later.

He and his good wife raised their five children and three of their grandchildren in this home.

The grandchildren they helped raise were their son John's children, John William from the age of two (he was the child from John's first marriage), Sarah who was lame after she had polio and Joseph Parley who was eight years old when he went to help his grandparents with the chores and on the farm after John William married.

William was ordained an Elder on 10 Apr 1872 and was a member of the 3rd Quorum for 30 years. "He was one of the most substantial and trustworthy citizens of the ward and did considerable temple work."

He was a man of sterling integrity, a kind father, and affectionate husband and a highly respected citizen.

William and Sarah were sealed in the temple 10 Apr 1872 and their children were sealed to them 29 Oct 1890.

They lived to see their children grown and married in good families before their death in North Ogden, Utah. Sarah died 5 Dec 1900 and William 10 Apr 1902. The were both buried in the North Ogden Cemetery.

There was a branch of (probably) the Woburn line of Henry/1 Brooks in
Portland in the right time period. One William C. Brooks, perhaps to
probably the son of Jonas/5 Brooks and Joanna CUMMINGS, was born in 1777 at
Malone, NY, but married, in 1801, in Maine, where he remained, Hannah
POLAND. They had two sons at Portland, 1802 and 1806, but each of these
settled in the country on a farm. I double-checked, and each had a child
within nine months or so of your Bronson's DOB.

Another Portland presence, at least for a generation, was the line of
Cotton Brown/6 Brooks, descended in the Concord line of Capt. Thomas
Brooks. A wealthy merchant, and the grandfather of Rev. Phillips Brooks, he
died at Portland in 1834. Of his three sons, William Gray was in Boston,
George (b. 1797, Haverhill, MA) disappears, and Charles (b. 1795,
Haverhill, disappears as well.) More accurately, I haven't followed them
beyond recording their births.

There are other Brooks connections to Portland I haven't clarified. One
John G. Brooks, a. 21, of Portland, died in Worcester, MA in 1839. Samuel
Reeves/7 Brooks married at Portland in 1842 -- born in Medford, MA, he was
probably in business with his cousin Cotton Brown Brooks in Portland.

Even more exotically, two Brooks sisters, whose family originated in
Exeter, NH, and who were born on a cotton plantation near Natchez, MS,
returned to New England to marry INGRAHAM brothers of Portland, but the
dates are likely after 1840, and, obviously, any offspring would carry the
Ingraham surname.

Finally, Larry Wert, whom I have lost contact with, sent me this several
years back, which he attributed to Lloyd O. Poland, The Polands of Essex
Co., MA (1981):

"A Wm. Brooks was listed in 1823-1827 Portland directories; Truckman, York
St.. 1841 directory, cooper, Sumner St. 1858-9 directory, William A.,
Clerk, Cumberland St."

Sorry I couldn't find anything more tangible. Have you checked the Portland
area census for BROOKS heads of household?

BTW, I left the subject line typo in place so that all messages on this
thread will sort together properly in the archive. :-)
