| Records of the Bay of Quinte Albert C. Bowerman - his works This unpublished work by Albert C. Bowerman is part of the E. H. Marion Cronk Fonds held by the Canadian Quaker Archives at Forward The Marion Cronk Fonds contains about 6 feet of boxed material and all came from the home of Marion Cronk, It appears this manuscript was never published in its current form. The bulk of the manuscript is a typed carbon copy on 8.5 x 14 tissue paper with some paper inserts, hand drawn maps and attached clippings and photographs. There are numerous handwritten edits and insertions presumably by AC Bowerman. These handwritten edits are transcribed in italics. The paragraphing, punctuation and spelling is transcribed as written though very minor corrections were made where the meaning is 100% clear to make it easier to read. An example is “In 1787Jesse Gifford” where no space was typed between the date and the name and it was transcribed as “In 1787 Jesse Gifford”. Images were made of most of the older content of the fonds and these images are included in a DVD in the Fonds at the archives. Carm Foster, Doug Smith and Judy Andrus Toporcer agreed to a request from Randy Saylor to transcribe this important manuscript. Randy emailed the images to them for transcription and assembled the document. The three transcribers are all Bowerman descendants and Randy is connected through marriage. Albert Claude Bowerman (1850 – 1917) was a doctor and a genealogical enthusiast. This work appears to be a precursor to Genealogical List of the Bull Family that he had published by the Ontario Historical Society in 1904 and The Bowerman Family of Ontario by A. C. Bowerman dated 1916 that was transcribed by Lorne Shunk in 1994 and is available on this web site. Transcribing Notes An attempt was made to copy the formatting used by the author. All handwritten edit notes are in italics. Most pages were numbered, some are missing, and many pages were renumbered in handwriting. It is difficult to copy the format exactly and if you are unsure of the text please contact me for clarification. Transcribers notes are always placed in [square brackets]. I want to thank Carm Foster, Doug Smith and Judy Torpocer Andrus for their enthusiasm, care and diligence in transcribing this work.

The back of the house was close to the precipice and not far from the The Johnsons, who came in 1791, after suffering great privations at length prospered and built themselves a commodious “frame” dwelling near the steep bank overlooking the Bay, near the Benj. Gillespie residence; at the foot of what is now “Johnson” St. From this point the road skirted the bank, turning a sharp corner behind the E.Sills house; thence to the corner, called since, “Washburn’s corner, at Just below the bank, near this corner, was as distillery, owned, or at least operated by a man named Baird and immediately to the East of the distillery, was the old log house once occupied by the Washburns, but in 1814, used by that family as a general store. It was however occupied as a residence, in addition to the store, as late as 1823, as it was from this place, in this year, that Simeon Washburn lost his later much-sought treasure-box. This house built of squared logs, stood within twenty feet of the water’s edge at the north side of the road leading to the second “ As before observed, when the log house was built there was no bridge nearer than the present “Glenwood” Cemetery. Near that, the latter, bridge was the blacksmith shop of Bela Johnson, on the old Mullett tannery site and close to this shop was a “turning” factory for making wooden bowls. The bateau passed freely to the landing at the “Hovington” House, as there was open water to the latter place for many years after this time as may be seen from an inspection of the sketches by the late Capt. Downs. Beside the store at the present bridge crossing, Simeon Washburn had also a large store-house below the bank at the site of the present or “Old-Red-Store-House” and these two stores were connected by a footpath along the water’s edge at the base of the cliff. These were the three principal landing places “The Red store-house”; “Washburn’s House” and “Hovington’s Landing”; Later developed the pier and store-house on the opposite side of the Bay; while with the building of the bridge at the foot of the present “Bridge Street” , the “Hovington House” and “Hovington Landing” fell into decay and have been entirely obliterated. Simeon Washburn was a man of wealth and involved in many business transaction; he made frequent journeys to and from Image 05, 06 – Carm Foster V. embittered with their recollections of defeat mercenary Hessians, with the spoils of a rich new land as the wage of unrighteous blood the sturdy and staid Quaker, still smarting from personal experience with the recollection of “man’s inhumanity” all these, differing as did their antecedent history, met together at the little hostlery making new friendships which time has cemented in the union of their posterity. Rooms once animated by the songs of camp and river aglow with the pitch-light of the wide stone fire place, and fragrant with steaming “ Doubtless, in the after-years, when only the memory of his companions has remained to cheer his solitary life, many an “old settler”, feeble with age and broken hopes, has crept unseen to the calm of this silent ruin when the noon-day sun warmed the moss-grown shingles, and the dragon-fly disported his green wings above the reedy waters of the old landing, and has repeopled the sepulchral silence with forms long hidden in their forest graves. They were truly men, those worthy pioneers who met together at the homely hostlery under the hill out of the uncomplaining pathos in their rugged lives few of the later generations have ever guessed. But those other Quaker forbears, they also were a versatile folk and turned their deft hands to many trades with surprising skill. Men, and women also, who were their own agriculturists, artizans, and spiritual advisers, were little daunted with the sophistry of the Aesculapian mysteries. They were their own doctors, old age became a religious habit and the perfidious impudence of the Patent Medicine vendor was a national misfortune as yet unaccomplished. Quakerism seems to be synonomous with the breaking up op [of] old idols, hence the Friends generally eschewed the regular physician and allied themselves to newer and nameless schools of physic. Fifty years ago Thompsonianism strutted through the clearings armed with a score of drastic domestic decoctions, and a favourite but fearful compound called “Number Six”. There are doubtless unhappy stomachs stillalight with its internal fires. it was certainly a happy adjunct to the armamentarium of the average orthodox divine. Notable among the other records of the Bowerman family are certain “Landmarks”, bearing [crossed out word] record to their residence and later migration. First among these is the well-known landmark.

Carm Foster IX. It should be observed that the following Records of the “Bowerman”, and allied families, are neither assumed to be complete nor free from unavoidable errors; they possibly represent a phase of individuality, a “fad”, properly speaking, they are chiefly the treasured matter of conversations with the interesting “old-folks”, who have long been gathered to their well earned rest; some on the “Hill” and some in the newer burying grounds in the village. Timely publication of these desultory notes will bring them to the notice of the “oldest inhabitant”; and thus ensure correction before the last available evidence has passed entirely beyond reach. It is hoped also that the brief references to allied families may serve to establish genealogical clues otherwise lost. In conclusion, the following pages are respecfully submitted to the generous consideration of a large circle of relatives, with the hope that imperfect as these records necessarily are, they may at least stimulate amoung our growing numbers, a general determination to be worthy of a moe exalted record. Albert C. Bowerman Ont. 9th July 1904 Image 13 – Carm Foster Introduction Concerning the Immigration of the Bowerman family into Canada, between the years 1783 and 1790, there is meagre evidence in support of the assumption that this movement was the result of eithrr religious or political persecution; neither is it probably that any of this numerous family was influenced by Gov. Simcoe’s Proclamation of the 9th Feb; 1792, as already several members of the family had ante-dated the Proclamation by periods varying from one to eight years. Samuel Hughes of Yonge Street Co. York, writing on the subject in 1834, says; in refference to the Proclamation……………. “This became an inducement to many who were poor and not able to “get lands where they lived, to run all hazards, in order to avail them- “selves of these grants, among whom were a number of Friends and their “families”. Of the Bowerman family, Jonathan and Ichabod were the only members who drew Govt. Grants in Prince Edward Co., and the evidence is still wanting to show that these lands were given as a reward for military services, either direct or indirect. The majority of the members of this family purchased their farms from the original holders, to whom subsequently the Govt. Patents were issued. The Bowerman family of Pr. Ed. Co. originally consisted of portions of the two families of Ichabod Boerman – viz: four (4) children by his first wife, Lydia Mott, together with his second wife, Jane Richmond, and ten (10) of her children. This makes a total of fifteen (15) persons. While it is true that there are instances of petty sectarian annoyance in Dutchess Co. as early as 1779, probably growing out of local prejudices, resulting from the War of Independence, there is nothing, of a later date to show that political antagonisms contributed to the causes which culminated in the family deportation between ’83 and ’90. On the contrary, there is a very sufficient reason contained in the poverty of a rocky farm on the one hand, Herein was a sensible reason for a wholesale migration; we shall later see how well they prospered under “expectations”, and how much “freedom” they actually enjoyed. Thomas Bowerman, the eldest son of Ichabod and Jane, was the first of his name to reach Canada (1783); following him came Elizabeth, David, and Jane, of the first family; and year by year, until 1790, they kept coming, until all of the second family, except Phebe and Deborah, together with the widow Jane, had finally reached the settlement in Pr. E. Co; Phebe and Deborah, of the second family, never came to Canada; and it is not an insignificant fact, in refutation of the untenable claim of political persecution, that Deborah’s descendants at the time of writing (1902) are still in possession of the Dutchess Co. homestead. After Ichabod’s death, as already stated, his widow Jane accompanied her children into In the journey to Canada, the route followed seems to have been that generally adopted by settlers from the lower Hudson – viz – By way of the River Hudson, the Mohawk, Woodcreek, and Portage, to Oneida Lake by way of Fort Stanwix, now Rome, thence by the Oswego into Lake Ontario, and northward to “Gravelly-Point”, now known as Cape-Vincent. From the latter point, some crossed to Frequent reference is made to the original method of transportation by means of Batteau, hence it is as well to reflect on the foll. quotation from “The boats used on this journey were generally known as the “Durham Boats”; and were constructed as foll.: viz “It is long, shallow and nearly flat-bottomed. The chief instrument of steerage is a pole ten feet long, shod with iron, and crossed at short intervals with small bars of wood like the feet of a ladder; the men place themselves at the bow two on each side, thrust their poles into the channel, and grasping successively the wooden bars, work their way toward the stern thus pushing on the vessel in that (?) direction”. The Bowerman family forming, with it numerous allies, no very insignificant minority of the entire Society of Friends in Hallowell, reference is here made to the records of the latter Society for much of the historical data concerning the individuals of this family. The Soc. Of Friends having been organized in Adolphustown in 1799, and in Hallowell in 1808, it will be observed that Jonathan and Ichabod Bowerman received their grants (1801-1802, respectively) before the establishment of the Meeting at the latter place. While there appears to be no evidence of Friends in Hallowell having received Govt. Grants of land for military services, the subject was discussed at the first Half-Years meeting of Friends held in Hallowell on the 31st of First Month 1810, in the log-meeting house on “Bowerman’s Hill”. Image 14 – Carm Foster (2) In the various records, the name is written sometimes “Bōman” – “Bōrman” – “Bōreman” – “Bōurman” – “Burman” – and “Bowerman”; and is pronounced, as all proper names are liable to be pronounced, according to the caprice of the careless speaker, indifferently either “Bō-man”; “Bō-erman”; or “Bower-man” (au-in out.. Stand. Dict.). The evidence of Robert Herrick the Devonshire poet (1591-1674) establishes the local pronunciation in favor of the long “ō” as against the “au” in “out”, as may be plainly seen in his un-flattering epigram upon the Devonshire miller, in which he says….. “Bōreman takes toll; cheats; flatters; lies; yet Bōreman” “For all the Devil helps, will be a poor man”. Even at the present time, although the Canadian branch of the family unanimously conform to the orthography as adopted in this record (Bowerman) still they vary in the pronunciation indifferently Bō-erman and Bowerman with a probable tendency to the ultimate suppression of the long “ō”. The name Bowerman signifies either an Archer or Bowman; or a Maker of Bows for Archery, [all underlining completed by hand] whether written “Bō-man” – “Bō-erman” – “or “Bower-man”; and is evidently derived from the ancestral calling or occupation of the family during early history of the west of A welsh origin of the family is not inconsistent with the evidence of the Devonshire “Rock-Idol”; already refered to on a previous page; while the armorial bearings of the family rather strengthen the evidence in favor of the military origin of the name. √ A Anthony Annable’s wife Jane died about Dec. 1643; and the record of his second marriage is also qualified by a chronological discrepancy; as the Rec. of New Plymouth state (1) “Anthonly Annable married Anne Alcock 1st Mar. 1645; and (2) “Anthony Annable and Ann Elcock marryed 3rd Mar. 1644”. As already stated Anthony probably removed from Scituate to Barnstable in 1640; and in 1646 he was elected to the Assembly or Court from the latter town; and re-elected for the same place during the years 1647-’51-’53-’56- and ’57. Anthony Annable died in 1673. (Freeman’s Hist. Cape Cod); and in 1674 the Court appointed a Mr. Hinckley executor of his estate. By his second marriage Anthony had the foll. Issue….. (II).

Mary Harper who married Thomas Bowerman under circumstances that leads to the suspicion that they were married according to the order of Friends was not improbably a daughter of the above Robert Harper. Image 17 – Judy Andrus Toporcer (4) At this early period it is curious to read – “In 1678 Thomas Burman was fined £10.0.0 for marrying himself” out as according to all evidence the Bowerman and Harper families were Quakers, this item itself is significant of the aversion in which the Society was universally held. In 1688 lands were laid out to Thomas Bowerman; and in 1690 all remaining undivided land in that section was ordered to be laid out or surveyed. Thomas Bowerman was one of two persons appointed to carry the order into execution; and in 1702 Thomas Bowerman with still another, was chosen by the town-meeting to settle with the dismissed teacher and preacher.

Silas “ Joseph “ Sarah “ Jake “ Eliza “ Peace “ Deborah “ The Bowerman family of New England was early associated with the Friends or Quakers; but as that Society took its rise in England in 1648, first appearing in the Mass. Colony in 1657, it will be readily seen that the Ancestor, Thomas Bowerman, was not a Friend on his advent in America, on or before the year 1633; nor even at the time of his marriage with Hannah Annable 1644-46, as the latter event itself antedates the rise of the sect by a period of two years. (II). Thomas son of (I). Thomas and Hannah born 1648 probably allied himself with the Friends about the time of his marriage with Mary Harper 9th April 14 1678.

From the records of death in the cases of Elizabeth and David; and the birth of Jane’s eldest child, the relative dates of these three is easily established. They are as foll. (V) Jane born 1745 ; as eldest child was born 6 th Jan. 1769 ; hence she was mar. about 1768. Timothy " 1750 ; Hannah " 1752 ; David " 1754 ; died in Pr. Ed. 28 th April 1, 1828; aet. 74 As Ichabod was born in 1720 – 21; and his daughter Jane about 1745; it is probable that Ichabod was first married about 1744, at the probable age of about 23. His first wife Lydia Mott died soon after the birth of Sarah; and in 1758 he married Jane, dau. of Cyrus Richmond; and soon after removed to Dutchess Co. N. Y. where he died in 1791, aet 70 years. There was undoubtedly a close relationship between Ichabod’s wife Lydia Mott and Mary Phebe Mott, the second wife of Cyrus Richmond; but no record has been produced at the present time to establish the genealogy of this particular Mott family. (IV) Ichabod Bowerman has left the statement that he descended from one of a family of four brothers of English origin; that he was born in This tradition of the four brothers was confirmed by an octogenarian named Stephen Bowerman who resided in But for a further confirmation of this tradition we have only to refer to the family of (II) Thomas and Mary, having beside two daughters the four brothers – Samuel – Thomas – Stephen – and Benjamin. Image 24 Doug Smith Leaving This fact alone offers ample reason for the emigration of the next generation in 1790 – 96; with little justification for the untenable assumption of political or religious persecution, the favourite affectation of later generations. Near the site of the original dwelling, lately destroyed by fire, is a deep chasm in the rocky hill-side worn probably by the ceasless wash of a stream. At the bottom of the fall is a deep pool shaded by the overgrowing cedar making the spot particularly attractive to the boys of the vicinity as a favorite swimming-resort. Although the family have long since left the place, the name still lingers with peculiar tenacity to this favourite pond, which even now rejoices in the unromantic cognomen of “Bowerman’s Hole”. see Landmarks. As the Bowerman of Dutchess Co. belonged to the society of Friends, it is to the records of that society we must look for whatever data has been preserved of the ancestor Ichabod. The Quaker records are unquestionably authentic; but it is a great pity that they are so meagre, so stinted in that vital information of a personal character, through which the lives of the old Friends might otherwise have been examined in a pleasing retrospect as worthy examples of living sacrifices to religious convictions. Search however as we may, there is little to be discovered outside the limits of genealogical note, except the briefest mention of complaints for violation of “discipline”; and the verdict of the unrecorded deliberations thereon. Friends as a society have ever been strict disciplinarians; but the paltry fragments known as “Records”, are useless in the effort to discover either the numerical strength of the society or the individual sentiment of its members. Individualism merges into or is suppressed in the general and impersonal character of all committee reports which never evince a suspicion of clerical inspiration. Quaker conservatism hence is a curious contradiction to the uncompromising radicalism of its religious innovations. Quaint and primitive as it is, the Quaker organization, as a type, is worthy of the closest scrutiny and deserving of the highest encomiums. As a society it encourages morality and all those virtues which tend to an increase of the social harmony; at the same time discouraging the less satisfactory indulgence in theological speculation Image 25 - Judy Andrus Toporcer (7) It is, however, to the influence of religious dogmatism unfortunately imbibed at a later period that much of the odium to society has arisen. Official medling in secular matters at the expense of religious advancement, qualified the spiritual attitude of our forefathers in Quakerism; notwithstanding that by a broad exercise of self-control they had already exalted themselves to so lofty a spiritual plane that more consistent results might not have been unexpected. While conservatism is a dominant factor in the unwritten code of Quakerism, making its members trusted citizens on the one side and loyal subjects on the other, the name itself does not stand as a synonym for perfection; hence the influence of the Revolutionary movement of 1776 found lodgement among Friends, disturbing the harmony and scattering the members of the fold. Slow as Friends are to violate the traditions of their own eventful history; and appreciating the blessings of religious freedom, they very naturally sympathize with the growth of individual liberty and the spread of intellectual knowledge; but popular clamor does* never blends well* with the colorless calm of Quaker retirement. Had the true principles of Quakerism obtained to the exclusion of all Secular* Revolutionary heresy, the record of petty grievances at this period of Quaker* their history would never have been preserved. But unfortunately it is from this source that we drive the written record of Ichabod Bowerman; and although of genealogical value it is a question if the credit of the society had not been better considered by its entire suppression – a hint that may not be overlooked by the society even at this late date. Ichabod Bowerman was a member of the “Oswego Preparative Meeting of Friends” within the “verge” – to use an expression peculiar to the records of “Great Nine Partner’s” Mo. Mtg. in Dutchess Co. N.Y.; and as before observed the only record alluding to him is contained in a “complaint” to the meeting under date 19th Mar. 1779 – as foll.. -- -- “A complaint came to this meeting by way of last Preparative at Oswego against Icabed Boreman [sic] for being neglectful in attending our meetings and sleeping in meeting when there; also for keeping unsivel people in his House and selling liquor; therefore this meeting appoints Zebulon Hoxsie and Stephen Dean to treat with him on that account and make a report to next Monthly Meeting”. This stereotyped formula of accusation bears the customary impersonal character of the society as deliberations in general; and in this particular is a painful contrast to the generous frankness practiced by Quakerdom at large. “Non-attendance” and “Sleeping in Meeting” – have always been viewed as grave infractions of Friend’s discipline. These are “dealt with” first by a remonstrance from a visiting committee and lastly by “disownment”. * [note: very faded hand-written edits above lines are included here in italics] Image 26 - Judy Andrus Toporcer [faint] 8 In the matter of “keeping unsivel people in his house” it is a family tradition that a relative of Jane Richmond – one Joseph Earl, a pro-British agitator – was a frequent visitor at the house of Ichabod, true to the precepts of the sect the whole family are well known to have favored the Royal Cause; but the overt act of harboring a spy brought the family under the survalliance of the Continental troops. Searching parties catechized even the infants to gain a knowledge of the whereabouts of the elusive Earl, and they more than once ransacked the premises to secure his arrest but without avail. Earl after many minor depredations escaped into Anecdotes of Indian massacres, of ruthless harryings among peaceful settlers, of imprisonment and hair-breadth escapes; these make better material for a series of “Border Tales” than for the tame narration of events in the history of a peaceful sect such as the Quakers. The records of society however abound with evidence of much personal suffering, distraint, and ultimate exile. Nor did the society itself escape the infection of revolution; and it is rather to the dissentions among Friends themselves rather than from extraneous interference, that the Society suffered most. This disposition among members to make open cause with one of the other party, in striking contradiction to the peaceful precepts of the society, evinces the predominant influence of race over religion; and arouses the suspicion that our – early “fathers” were themselves far removed from the seventh heaven of Utopian Quakerism. Brief as the Minutes are in the case of Ichabod Bowerman the evident determination of Society to have “satisfaction” at the expense of membership, manifests a worldliness of conception, incompatible with the dignity of a church disciplinary committee. At a subsequent Mo. Mtg. the committee previously appointed produced the following report – “The Friends appointed to visit Ichabod Boreman report they had; and he did not appear in a disposition to make suitable satisfaction for the complaint against him, therefore the same Friends are appointed to inform him that the Meeting expects to disown him; and to draw a testimony and produce to next Monthly Meeting.” The record further states that – “The Friends appointed to draw a testimony against Ichabod Bowerman produced it here which is approved and signed. Andrew Moore and Ladowick Hoxsie are appointed to read it at the close of a Firstday Meeting at [Note: It appears that page 9 is missing from the original work.] Image 27 - Judy Andrus Toporcer (10) “Jeremiah’s father David probably married (2nd) about 1752, and allowing 27 years for his age at his 2nd mar. he would have been born in 1725 which is also the probable date of birth of David the brother of Ichabod the ancestor of the Canadian branch of the Bowerman family.
