[Frontispiece: Caudebec Coat-of-Arms]
THE "CAUDEBEC" COAT-OF-ARMS
* * * * *
The Caudebec Coat-of-Arms is a pointed, oval azure, two metal shield,
with an ("or") gold embattled mural crown or crest.
Across the face of the shield area charges: three argent finned smelts
naiant, placed one above the other.
Near the point of the shield is an "argent" (silver) daisy.
From this, a wreath of "or" (gold) encircles the shield, reaching
nearly the crest.
On the sinister side of the shield, this wreath is a laurel branch,
on the dexter side, an olive branch. (In heraldry, dexter (right)
and sinister (left), denote the right and left sides respectively, of
the shield in the position as the wearer views it, and not as viewed
by a distant observer). On some of the Caudebec Coat-of-Arms, the
laurel and the olive branches are crossed at or near the shield
point, and are tied by a bow of ribbon.
The azure (sky blue), the royal color of the Bourbons, predominates
in French shields, and denotes justice and loyalty.
The "argent" denotes purity.
The "or" denotes stability and worth.
The smelts were peculiarly and pleasingly flavored fish, with pale
green back, and silvery white lower part.
It has been said that the presence of fish on Coat-of-Arms, denoted
a predominant occupation of an early period.
The olive and laurel denote peace and victory.
Crests were originally a device indicative of high honor, and were
worn upon a helm. Later they were placed upon and attached to the
shield. It's form and marking indicate a knight.
The emblems of the family later became the emblems of the town of
Caudebec.

INTRODUCTION
* * * * *
It has been my pleasure and diversion during a period of many years
to collect and tabulate data concerning the descendants of Jacques
Caudebec.
This has led to a study of the almost interminable network of
relationship existing between the old families throughout the
Minisink region; to the tracing of the immigration from this region
into many of the states, and the development of families in almost
every State in the Union.
The emigrant and the frontiersman of the early generations have been
succeeded by the farmer, the merchant and the mechanic; later, by
those in every branch of human activity and industry. A people of
high ideals, honest, intelligent, home-making and law abiding, have
ever been exerting an influence uplifting and for the preservation of
liberty and freedom.
Much of this early history is derived from the writings of Peter E.
Gumaer. Much of the subsequent history was given me by my father,
Elting Cuddeback, whose remembrance of these people was accurate,
extensive and reaching back to the times of Peter E. Gumaer. Local
records have been searched. Also those in Kingston, Albany and New
York and Central New York counties. Records have been obtained from
the writings of W. H. Nearpass, while extensive family records have
been furnished by Mrs. Jennie Titsworth Wright of Sussex, N. J., Mrs.
Mary V. Lawton of Skaneateles, N. Y., Mrs. Jane Cuddeback Johnson of
Port Jervis, N. Y., Dr. Samuel Outwater of Lockport, N. Y., Mrs.
Simeon Cuddeback of Milford, Pa., Mr. and Mrs. Egbert Cuddeback of
Skaneateles, N. Y., and Mrs. Martha M. Griswold of Adrian, Michigan.
I deem myself fortunate to have known and learned from those of
earlier generations many facts pertaining to the early history of the
family. A physician comes to know the country, the people and the
families with an intimacy unknown in other relations.
Forty-one years of the practice of my profession among neighbors,
relatives and friends of my boyhood have impressed me with the
desirability of a record of our people and of our family. Families
scatter. Homes disintegrate. Houses disappear. Among the saddest of
my experiences are visits to localities where there is now little or
no vestige of the lives or of the drama of life enacted in the old
homesteads of bygone years. Many, many times in this study, I have
been impressed with the truth of the verses, Psalms 103, verses
15 and 16: "As for man, his days are as grass; as a flower of the
field, so he flourisheth: For the wind passeth over it, and it is
gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more."
As a heritage for those who may hereafter bear the name Cuddeback,
for allied families, and for all who may note the development of
American families, this ideal development of free men in a free
country is presented. These interminglings of people of various
nationalities--these Americans, will everywhere be a mighty force for
the uplifting of the nation.
That such a people may be enabled to turn to a record of ancestors,
and to delight to know from whence they came is sufficient
compensation for many hours and days of investigation and
collaboration.

PIONEER KNOLL-HOME OF THE FIRST SETTLER
Between the ranges of the Appalachian Mountains as they extend
northward into New York State, lies the Valley of the Neversink
river and of the Bashas Kill. From these the water flows into the
Delaware River at Port Jervis.
The Kitatiny mountains of New Jersey becomes the Shawangunk range in
New York and form the southeastern border of the valley. The Blue
Ridge mountains of Pennsylvania extend northeasterly into New York,
form the northwesterly border of the valley, and extend into the foot
hills of the Catskills. Between these mountain ranges lies the valley
of the Neversink, the Meckheckemeck of the early days, two hundred
to four hundred feet below their crests. It is from one to two miles
wide. It is said to have been part of the bed of a vast lake
extending to the Hudson before the erosion of the mountain which
resulted in the formation of the Delaware Water Gap. At a point near
the junction of the Neversink with the Bashas Kill there is a level
tract of land extending the width of the valley for about three miles.
The early settlers trailed down the valley from Kingston and came
upon this flat land covered with a tall heavy grass (Rheet Grass)
about 1690 and tarried there. About 1696 they purchased these lands
from the Indians, and settled among them. On Oct. 14th, 1697, a
patent for 1200 acres covering this fiat land was granted to Jacob
Caudebec, Peter Gumaer, Thomas, Bernarbas, and Anthony Swartwout and
their associates. This "Cuddeback" patent is described as "at
Maghakameck, beginning at the west bounds of lands called Napeneck,
etc., . . . to a small run of water called by the Indians
'Assawaghkemeck,' etc., (a small stream flowing into east side of the
Neversink opposite Huguenot) and so along the said run of water and
the lands of Mansjwor, the Indian."
This included the level fertile low lands from near Cuddebackville
to Huguenot, and was later called the "Peenpack flats." Near the
center of this "Caudebec patent" there is a knoll extending
longitudinally of the valley, which tradition gives as the location
of the homes of the first settlers. It is oval, about three hundred
yards long, fifty yards wide, and elevated above the surrounding low
lands approximately twenty feet.
[Illustration: Pioneer Knoll of 1695.]
[Illustration: Pioneer Knoll, West Slope.]
[Illustration: Pioneer Knoll, Northwest Slope.]
[Illustration: Spring Brook, skirting East Slope of Pioneer Knoll.]
[Illustration: Pioneer Knoll, Northeast Slope.]
This pioneer knoll, today grass-grown and a pasture, gives evidence
of its former occupancy. Depressions indicate the location of these
log houses. At its most southerly point, a larger, longer depression
surrounded by fragments of a stone foundation now covered by earth
and sod, indicates the location of an old fort erected at a later
date. About twenty yards east of this knoll is a large brook of the
clearest spring water, while on its eastern slope is located the
remnant of the spring which furnished them water. The accompanying
maps and views show these points, and also show that these pioneers
built their houses in the most approved manner of their day. The
depressions indicative of their cellars are near each other on
different sides, on the brow of the knoll. Between them is the
slightly elevated rounded top of the knoll. Access to and
communication with neighbors from houses thus located could have been
easy, quick and continuous.
DEEDS, LAND, PAPERS ETC.
The following transcripts from the public records at Kingston, New
York and Albany are of value as records of the life and the struggles
of these early colonists. The deeds from the Indians covering a large
acreage, extending in the Meckheckemeck valley from Naponeck nearly
to the Delaware, was made to others besides those named in the
Caudebec patent. This was a cause of differences between owners of
adjoining patents and led to disturbances between the Indians and the
pioneers.

Another patent was granted May 26th, 1697, to Arent Schuyler for 1000
acres of land. This included the lands in and about Port Jervis and
extended up the Neversink Valley about half way to Huguenot.
Another patent (the Minisink Patent) was granted August 28th, 1704,
and included all the lands in this vicinity not included in the
preceding patents.

To the Hon^ble John Nasan Esq Leu Govonor & commander in chief of
provice of New York &c and the Hon^ble ^council of the land
The humble petition of Barnardus Swartwout in behalf of himself and
copartners in a new Settlement at Waghahkowock now the Minissinks.
Showoth
That on the 14th day of October 1695 the petitioners had lycense to
purchase 1200 acres of vacant land at a place called Waghaghkamock,
which being understood by Col& Rutsen and others who were desirous of
the same lands which the petitioners had by (charge?) and pains
discovered found a petition to the Governor and Council afterwards,
to wit: The 9th of January 1695-6 for a lysence to purchase 400 acres
at great little Minissinks Under color of which lysense being upwards
of 20 in number, by large gifts to the Indians and other indirect
(works?) (debauches?) them to (bad?) faith to the petitioners, to
sell the same lands to them, of which complaint was made to the
Governor & Council, & an order thereupon granted that (it approving
the petitioners lysense) was prior to the date of that of Rutsen &
Compa. and the name of the place certain, and (still) it is of ill
consequence to have indirect dealings with the Indians.
That Rutsen and company do desist from any pretensions to purchase
the land mentioned in the lysense of the petitions upon penalty of
answering the same. Upon which order afterwards to wit the 28th day
of May 1696 Rutsen & company prays the Governor & council not to have
ill thoughts of them, and allege that the land that the petitioners
lay claim to by lysense is not called Waghgaghemeck which being ready
and considered in Council, an order issued upon petitioners that
Swartwout and company pursuant to their (wish?) should purchase 1200
acres at Waghgaghkemmack and afterwards the other company their 4000
acres. Notwithstanding all which though Rutsen & company ventured
still privly to (soist?) with the indians and obstruct the lawful
purchase until the middle of the year 1697, when the petitioners to
obtain their rights (forms?) of them verbally (consutod?) to make a
joint purchase with the other company which being done they thereupon
on the 14th of Oct. 1697 obtained his (mahos?) patent for the 1200
acres and betook themselves to the improvement thereof (and?)
(company?) to all right and the former orders without any patent or
first giving (way?) to the petitioners peacably to enjoy their 1200
acres. Many of the other company (purpose?) appointed by and under
them satt down upon the s^d land forcibly that it being far from the
other Christian settlement & mountain (whethr?) in the county of
Elster or Orange the forests could not be removed by the indians that
now Shely-irr-tin through months of Aug. and Sept. left and (devvey?)
other times. The indians chiefly Asawanta Pindamnius, Karhkolano
Sansa and Nashingloan with many others though pretended owners of the
land to the petitioners unknown being stirred up freely by the s'd
other company have fallen upon the s'd Barnardus Swartwout and his
brother another partner and have beaten bruised and badly kicked so
that of their lives they did really despair, and robbed plundered and
carried away their goods haply and have destroyed their cattel, have
(put fire?) often into their houses to burn them in which violent
practices those other company, their wives came to look on and render
the indians & (hindor?) from killing of them. But the men kept out of
the wy which is of very pernicious ( . . . ) and may end in an Indian
warr if life should be taken on any other part which your petitioners
would strenuously avoid, and therefore humbly pray that said indians
may be sent for and made to disclose who they are that put them upon
this violence (sound?) prudent (va^rd?) be taken to prevent future
mischief that such punishment may be enforced to their good.
That the quiet & peaceable possession of their estates to the end
that justice & right may take place according to your honorable great
wisdom and prudence. This y^e pet^rs as in duty shall pray &c.

PIONEER DAYS
These sturdy young people, ambitious, enterprising, accustomed to and
delighting in the hardships of frontier life, found in this valley
and at this place an ideal spot for their purpose. They determined to
place themselves and their families beyond the realms of oppression
and persecution, to live as free as the air they breathed, at a point
relatively near, where their Huguenot countrymen had settled at
Esopus and New Paltz. Game was abundant. Fish were in the streams in
quantities. The soil was fertile, productive and easy of cultivation.
The native inhabitants were kindly disposed and peaceable. Could
anything be more alluring to these after their experience in their
native land? Tradition relates that they were happy and contented in
these new homes for many years. They were governed by a Christian
sentiment and duty. Honor for honest industry abounded. Every person
was comforted and ennobled by a "peaceful, pure and stimulating
atmosphere of personal and religious freedom."
The typical pioneer's home has been described as a log house on
sloping ground, on the brow of a hill, facing and overlooking the
level meadow land, from which a path led up to its front door, which
was about in the middle of the front of the house. Small high windows
are on either side of it. Directly opposite the front is the back
door, larger, wider and level with the ground. It opens against the
sloping ground so that wood may be carried or rolled in or that the
huge back log--the foundation for the fire--may be drawn in by a
horse for the great wide fireplace which fills up one end of the
single room--the "fire room"--the general living room. Across the
ends of the house, logs surround the great stone chimney and are
morticed in with the side logs. Between and around these clay and
earth fill in the crevices.
Before the days when leaded window glass was first imported from
England, thick oiled paper formed their semi-opaque windows.
Sun-dials and hour glasses marked the time.
The ceilings were low, the stairs were short and steep. Ladders led
to sleeping rooms above. The small cellars contained family supplies
to supplement the food furnished by hunting and fishing, in which the
Indian residents joined most willingly.
Indian trails widened to foot paths, as every one walked. Later
travel by horseback was the custom, and pack horses carried their
baggage, food and household effects--canoes and boats were of some
service. For light, a bundle of yellow pine knots was burned in a
corner of the large fireplace. This "candle wood" would be fastened
there between flat stones. Later oil obtained from different sources
was burned, as also tallow in betty lamps or brown bettys (shallow
pewter or metal dishes two or three inches in diameter with
projecting nose over which the wick hangs).
Phoebe lamps were similar but had a second shallow saucer to catch
the drip. Later candles were made by dipping, afterwards by moulds.
The pale brittle green bayberry candles from the taller shrub or
candleberry tree gave most fragrant odor, while later, the brighter
better light of the spermaceti candles was of service.
In the latter part of the 17th century, during the active lives of
the second and third generations, the lands of the patent were
allotted to individual ownership. The several owners then built
substantial stone houses at nearby points in the valley. The "Gumaer
stone house" of the present day was built. The "Cuddeback stone
house," now standing, near the log house by the highway, near a small
run of water just south of Port Clinton and about one mile due north
of pioneers knoll, was built by Jacob Caudebec and his sons.
This has been occupied by six generations of the Cuddeback family. It
is still firm and substantial and a comfortable home. The Swartwout's
possessed Seneyaghquan.
These stone houses, generally irregularly rectangular, were most
substantially built. Entrance was usually through a large double
door, horizontally divided, opening into a large "fire room" at one
end, while at the other end of the house was a smaller room, used as
a dining room or a "state bed room," where a "Slawbank" or a "half
headed bed" was ever ready for the visitor.
[Illustration: Cuddeback Stone House and Nearby Log House.]
The large heavy "lug pole" was replaced later by the light moveable
iron crane with its iron hooks, pots and kettles in the great broad
fireplace. Andirons and creepers were later added to the household
equipment. The ceilings showed great logs and rafters rough hewn and
supporting a board floor or roof with its heavy bark covering.
The attic, beside providing sleeping apartments, had near the
chimney, a room with an opening to chimney and place to smoke bacon,
ham and beef; also a room for grains, storage, etc.
The large deep cellars contained bins for potatoes, apples, turnips,
beets, etc., barrels for salted beef, pork, game and fish--tubs of
sausage, headcheese, etc., and firkins of butter, eggs--shelves
filled with fruit, etc., barrels for cider, vinegar, etc.
In the earlier years, the tables were of boards and the dishes,
platters, etc., were mostly of wood, so were the trenches, the
borols, the tankards, the spoons of laurel wood and the plates of
birch bark. Bottles and drinking cups and noggins of leather and
sometimes of the thin hard shell of the gourd of horn. Later pewter
dishes were substituted. Food was plentiful. Wild native fruits were
in abundance, as huckleberries, strawberries, blackberries, grapes
and cranberries. Wild turkey abounded in flocks. Wild geese and ducks
by the thousands, and pigeons in flocks to obscure the light, and
here were also pheasants, partridge, quail, snipe. These, with the
products of the soil made life worth living, and secured the settlers
comfort and prosperity.
The Indians, friendly and helpful, taught the planting and the
raising of Indian corn, their "gunney wheat" or "turkey wheat"--a
native American food--the grinding and the cooking of it and the
preparation of many kinds of most nutritious foods from it, samp
porridge, suppawn, new samp, succotash, using their handmade mills,
their stump and sapling mortar also. They had great fear however of
windmills. They were also most helpful in killing, securing and
preserving game and fish for winter use. In turn, they learned to
secure wild honey. With wonder they called the bees "English flies";
called the maples "sugar trees" as they boiled the sap and gathered
the sugar.
They joined in the winter sports and pastimes as fox hunting,
squirrel killing, bear bayting, and for a generation lived most
peaceably with the settlers.
For about sixty years, friendly and peaceable relations existed with
the Indians. The French and Indian war beginning about 1755 changed
this. The Indians under French influence withdrew from this region,
became hostile, made life perilous--property uncertain, and committed
many acts of treachery. Afterwards a few of them returned and
remained in the valley until the revolution, when the absence of many
of the men and the influence of the cunning Brandt turned them again
to be enemies of the whites and led to the invasion of 1777 and 1779.
In 1777 the Committee of Safety directed that three forts be built in
the "peenpack" neighborhood. The central one near the house of
Ezekiel Gumaer was near by the Pioneer's knoll. Surrounding the stone
house, on the open land a "picket fort" a stockade was built. Rows of
tree trunks, stakes, etc., were planted upright enclosing several
acres, an area sufficient to accommodate the nearby families. Around
this fort with Capt. Abram Cuddeback in command, many exciting
adventures occurred during the revolution. Gumaer states, "that the
fort sheltered eleven families, aggregating one hundred and thirteen
persons during the greater portion of the years 1778-9."
William Cuddeback, the father of Capt. Abram, was there with his
family. He was an old man and died soon after the revolution. His
son, Benjamin Cuddeback, was at Fort DeWitt, near the present
Neversink highway bridge, at the time of the raid and was in charge
of its defense. After the invasion, he returned to the "Cuddeback
Stone House," "Fort Cuddeback," with his family, where he died about
1782 presumably of typhoid fever.
The upper was the neighborhood of Meckheckemeck, while the lower
neighborhood embracing the valley from Huguenot, south to the
Delaware river was called "Little Minisink Neighborhood." Its forts
were--Westfall, Decker, near the Delaware and Van Auken, the latter
being east of the Neversink where the stone houses afforded the
protection.
After the revolution, more attention was paid to agriculture. The
small farms were again cultivated to a greater extent. Timbers were
rafted down the Neversink and Delaware to market. Saw mills and grist
mills were built in the valley. The cultivation of flax and hemp
constituted a large part of their labor. The manufacture of cloth and
clothing was a household occupation and year end employment for both
the men and the women of the families. The sowing, the cultivation,
the gathering of the flax which must be pulled, dried and ripped and
spread into a "stook" in the field. This was followed by the cleaning,
the drying and the tying in bundles. The new grown hemp must be
pounded, swingled, carded and dried, then swingled, pounded and
hetcheled until the fibers were assorted, spread and drawn ready for
spinning. The raising of sheep, the shearing, the assorting of
fleeces, the carding of the wool--the colorings of "golden rod
green"--the "pokeberry crimson"--the "sassafras orange yellow"--the
hickory-oak bark or indigo as fancy may decide. The skeins bleached,
washed, dyed and dried were wound on bobbins for the loom. Then came
the knitting, the weaving, and the making of the clothing,--broom
corn brooms supplanted birch splint brooms. Such constant employment
invariably leads to habits of economy, to adaptability and
resourcefulness which makes for independence and strength.
This mutual dependence and assistance resulting from their situation
made a "neighborhood" feeling whereby each shared in the profits, the
pleasures and the luxuries of the others. They joined together in
their work and in generous welcome to the kinsfolks. With such
environments, to a people, strong, vigorous, enterprising, voluntary
exiles for conscience's and their religious sake, these develop
strong characteristics in families, more marked in some individuals.
Gumaer notes this development in the earlier generation. He says,
"religious reading meetings were held in the peenpack neighborhood,"
also "the services of an officer were unnecessary in that
neighborhood during the first sixty or seventy years of the
settlement. They had the honesty and the prudence to adjust all
matters relating to their mutual dealings." When roused by fear and
danger they became sturdy energetic soldiers who knew only
independence and self-reliance. The extent of this is shown by the
military records. In the second regiment of Ulster County militia, in
the company of which Captain Abram Cuddeback commanded we find among
the enlisted men six of the name of Cuddeback--William, Peter, James,
Benjamin, Abraham, Sr., Abraham, Jr., five of the name of Swartwout
and several names of each of the families of the region. With such
inheritance, with such discipline, with such surroundings, with
nature as a firm, kind, unyielding teacher, impress of character was
early discernible with these people. These families developed traits
of character and physical stature which has been most noticeable in
members of succeeding generations.
"William Cuddeback, though uneducated, was versed in the scriptures,
was characterized as a wise man in his time." Each succeeding
generation developed its leaders in the religious, business and
social matters of their day, of sterling uprightness and integrity,
among a people gentle, modest, retiring, with strong religious
convictions, with sympathy and helpfulness toward each other and a
fidelity to duty.
Gumaer states, "I have sat many a long winter evening and many an
hour in the day time to hear the conversations and arguments of a few
of the individuals of the second generation. Many of these
communications and remarks were entertaining and instructive as to
what had transpired in this valley, and as to the lives of the
people." Gumaer also states from knowledge gained in this way he
considers "that Col. Peter Cuddeback had the general resemblance to
the early members of the family." His picture herewith presented may
be considered as indicative of the features and general physique of
the family.
[Illustration: Colonel Peter Cuddeback 1795-1892.]
The family life was the community life of the early generations.
Remnants of this have continued in some localities where the husking
bee, the quilting party or the apple cut afford opportunities for the
family to gather and to rehearse tales of the early trials, fortunes
and successes. This family visiting, when all of the family were
included, with its free hearty welcome, and its unreserved and
unstinted hospitality indicated the fellowship of the family as a
group and as the unit in the community and is in marked contrast to
the twentieth century methods where the individual is the unit.
After the revolution, the state lands of Central New York were opened
to settlers. Many of the younger men of the third generation
emigrated to that portion of the state and became pioneers on the
"Holland purchase" and the military lands of the state where their
families have continued to reside.
Later the descendants in the fourth generation, farmers and those of
allied pursuits, became owners of nearly all of the most fertile
bottom lands in the valley. They were jealous of their ownership of
these paternal farms, and guarded them from outside ownership and
intrusion. This spirit developed also in the members of those
families in western New York where they located. Near Skaneateles,
through one section, farm after farm for miles in extent was the
property of a Cuddeback, at Owasco, at Moravia. In Niles township,
at Twelve Corners, the same conditions existed. Farm after farm was
the property of a Van Etten, Westfall, Van Fleet or Cuddeback, or a
relative of one of them in the third or fourth generation, from
Deerpark ancestry.
Similar conditions to a limited extent existed in other sections as
in Wayne County, N. Y., Seneca County, N. Y., Niagara County, N. Y.,
Wayne and Bradford Counties, Pa., near Adrian, Mich., and in Iowa.
In 1745 Roelof Elting bequeathed to his daughter, Jacomyntje Codebec,
certain sums of money--to others lands, which if they sold, they must
first offer to their brothers and sisters at the same price a
stranger would pay.
In this development of families of succeeding generations in
different localities we see illustrated the migratory element of our
people.
These sturdy young emigrants of the middle of the seventeenth century
settled and established their homes near Kingston, N. Y., about 1650
and reared their families there. As their children reached maturity
and began life for themselves, some of them with others, later
emigrants, sought adjacent locations for their homes. The
Meckheckemeck settlement was formed just previous to 1700. Lands were
purchased and the Cuddeback patent was obtained. Here a new
generation grew to manhood. Youth again active, restless and alert
sought other locations. From 1730 to 1750 the lands along the
Delaware, both in New Jersey and in Pennsylvania were attractive. The
younger of the families of Cuddeback, Depuy, Shimer and Hornbeck
established homes there. Records show that some of the Swartwouts of
the third generation, natives of Meckheckemeck, then called
"Pin-peck," or "Peenpack," removed to this section.
As the next generation grew to manhood many of them seeking homes
crossed over into the valley of Susquehanna into the southern central
New York counties. This movement was quite extensive just after the
revolution, when influenced by the DeWitts, surveyors, quite a colony
from Peenpack established themselves in the "lake country" of central
New York.
Again in each succeeding generation similar developments occurred.
Soon after 1800 the active, restless young people from Central New
York emigrated to Michigan and to Ohio accompanied by relatives and
friends from the older settlements on the Delaware and Susquehanna.
These migrations have continued. The more alert or venturesome of
each generation have sought new locations to establish their homes.
They are now in every state of the Union some who are direct lineal
descendants of the emigrant Jacques Caudebec and in the older
locations the network of relationship is intricate and closely woven.
The lands in the valley continued to be most productive during the
first half of the nineteenth century. Substantial stately houses were
built. Large barns and out buildings were erected. The thrift and
prosperity of the farmers continued. The social life centered about
the church and the homes--a broad hospitality prevailed of which the
family was the unit.
During the lives of the fifth and sixth generations, conditions have
changed materially. The varied pursuits of the twentieth century
gives occupation as varied and diverse as their homes are distant
from one another and from the ancestral home of the family. The
exhaustion of the soil, the attraction of the productive western farm
lands, the migration to the cities, all have tended to diminish the
population and the representatives of the family throughout this
entire region of country. It is a fact, however, more than eighty per
cent, of the lands of the Caudebec patent remains today in the
possession of owners whose ancestry may be traced to a patentee.
The first attempt to build a grist mill in the valley was made by
Jacob Caudebec and his sons, near the Caudebec stone house. The small
run of water over the steep declivity just east of the house
furnished the power, the rough stone blocks, the mill stones, were
obtained from the Indians. Grains for both the settlers and the
Indians were ground there for many years, substituting this for hand
pounding with pestle in mortar and for the sapling and stump mortar.
Later other and better mill sites were located in the valley. One of
which was the mill site of Henry Decker on the old dam brook. "Ouwe
Dam Kill"--a dam across the spring brook about one mile northeast of
Port Jervis, overflowed a long, low marshy tract of land extending
toward Huguenot, stored water for power purposes for a mill located
at that point.
Remnants of this dam are visible today just west of the Huguenot
highway where it crosses the railroad as both cross the stream near
Port Jervis. Also foundation stone of the old log house, the mill
house are still visible about twenty-five feet east of the present
dwelling. This property became the property of Benjamin Cuddeback
about 1800. The present dwelling built by Benjamin Cuddeback about
1814 stands today typical of its time in shape, size and structure.
Later it was the home of Elting Cuddeback for eighty years and of his
son, the writer, during his youth.
Jacob Caudebec and Peter Gumaer were French Huguenot refugees.
Caudebec came from Caudebec-en-Caux--a thriving agricultural and
manufacturing town on the Seine in Normandy, France.
These refugees, Caudebec and Gumaer, fled in 1685 to England or
Holland, thence to Maryland, in America, later to New Amsterdam,
thence to Oesopus and Wylt Wyck (Kingston), N. Y.
Jacob Caudebec was born about 1666 in Normandy of a family of
prosperous merchants. In his flight he became separated from his
people. He was unable afterwards to find trace of his own family or
sisters or to recover any of their property. Although the following
story is found among the writings of Peter Gumaer: "Now I have
understood that it had been concluded on between Cuddeback and two of
his sisters that he and Gumaer would go to a certain place in England
or Holland (I am not certain which) and that after a certain time
these two sisters would embark for the same place and bring money to
enter into a mercantile business at the place of their destination;
and that Cuddeback and Gumaer after being landed at this place waited
for these two sisters till after the time for their arrival had
elapsed; and giving up all hopes of their coming embarked for America
and were landed in the State of Maryland; which passage exhausted the
last of their money. Cuddeback had information afterwards, that his
sisters after some length of time had arrived and entered into a
mercantile business; and he was chagrined in consequence of their
having all the money. It was said that after they had arrived
Cuddeback corresponded with them by letters and would often remind
them of their injustice in keeping to themselves all the property;
which I have understood they offered to share with him if he would
come and live with them or they would take and do well by one of his
children if he would send one of them." Ruttenber states that Peter
Gumaer and Jacob Caudebec were the younger members of the families of
Abraham Guimar and James Caudebec. He soon adapted himself to the
different conditions of life of the new world. He found employment
with Benjamin Provost, a trader of New York and Oesopus. He came to
this valley in 1690. On October 21st, 1695, he married in New York
City Margarette Provost, a daughter of his employer, Benjamin
Provost, and Elsje Aelberts who had been married in New York
Nov. 5th, 1671.
Jacob Caudebec is quoted as having said that "by leaving France he
had been deprived of many enjoyments but he had the satisfaction of
leaving his posterity in a country of good land, easily acquired." He
is characterized as of a penetrating mind, persuasive in business, of
speculative disposition, and most tender towards his family. He
retained his mental faculties and physical vigor almost until his
last hour. Three of his sons became farmers on the peenpack flats,
the lands of the patent. On February 15th, 1726, he deeded a
one-seventh interest in the patent to his three sons, Benjamin,
William and Jacob, who agreed to pay certain moneys equally to all
his children. One son and four sons-in-law became farmers near
Shepekunk, in northern New Jersey along the Delaware. In 1715 the
name of Jacob Koddeback appears as member of a foot company of Ulster
County militia, under the command of Col. Jacob Rutsen. On September
1st, 1689, J. Caudebec, a native of France, took oath of allegiance
to King William and Queen Mary.
[Illustration: Map--Division of Land.]
THE CUDDEBACK PATENT DISSOLVED.
The ownership of the lands of the Cuddeback patent were in the names
of the patentees and allotted as indicated in the chart.
The dissolution of the community ownership of the lands of the patent
was accomplished by an eight party deed of its owners on February
13th, 1768, when Captain Johannas Westbrook, Peter Gemare, Benjamin
Cuddeback and William Cuddeback, Geradus Van Inwegen, Benjamin Depuy,
Jacob Rutsen DeWitt, Abraham Cuddeback and Phillipus Swartwout, as
joint-owners of the 1200 acre patent, deeded to each of their
assignes, as individuals, their holdings. William Cuddeback received
deed for one-eighth part. William and Benjamin Cuddeback received
one-eighth part, which they redeeded to their father, Jacob
Cuddeback, and also received deed for
lot No. 5 of 1st division of the patent
" No. 6 2nd " " "
" No. 5 5th " " "
" No. 3 6th " " "
" No. 5 7th " " "
" No. 2 8th " " "
and also for 12 acres of land with all edifices, barns, barracks,
fencing and implements.
No record is found that either John Tyse or David Jamison lived in
the valley. It is believed that Tyse was an older man and was a
resident of Oesopus where records show the baptism of three of his
children about 1680.
David Jamison became the attorney general of the Province of New York
in 1720.
Thomas and Bernardus Swartwout removed down the Delaware valley into
New Jersey at Smithfield or Walpack, where many of their descendants
have continued to live, and today are quite numerous. Some have
changed the spelling to Swartwood. Anthony Swartwout died about 1700.
His widow with her children and second husband, Harmonas Van Inwegen,
continued to live on the lands of the patent.
For more than thirty years, the patriarch of Peenpack, Jacob Caudebec
was the sole remaining one of the original patentees to continue to
live on the patent and in the Meckheckemeck settlement. His fellow
countryman and refugee, Peter Gumaer, died previous to 1732. His will
dated September 24th, 1726, was probated at Kingston, N. Y., October
4th, 1732.
