INTRODUCTION. 
 
 Dear Reader : — 
 
 I take much pleasure in placing in your hands this the first genealogy of 
 the Gifford family. 
 
 For several years past I have devoted much time collecting data and ex- 
 amining records for this volume. Many obstacles have been encountered, 
 which the casual reader little dreams of. The greatest of these is the fact 
 that a large percentage of my correspondence remains unanswered. Many 
 records have been destroyed, lost, and mutilated, and it is only through dili- 
 gent inquiry, and comparison of various notes and records of the past, that 
 the record is given in its present connected form . 
 
 I am sensible that, under these circumstances, there is a chance for many 
 great defects in this performance, wherein very little assistance was to be ob- 
 tained from publications and others. I hope, therefore, for much indulgence, 
 striking, as I have done, into a new and dark path, without a guide. 
 
 A readable page for many must be enlivened with description, narratives 
 and personal anecdotes. Those who take an interest in genealogy, I feel 
 safe to say, will find this a pleasing volume. If it is not as complete in its 
 data as the reader would like, it is not due to any oversight of mine ; upon 
 those who might have aided in this work, but have remained silent, must fall 
 that reproach. 
 
 I hereby extend tlianks to those who have kindly given me their assistance, 
 
 and trust that my efforts will be appreciated. 
 
 Respectfully yours, 
 
 Harry E. Gifford.

CHAPTER I. 
 
 This volume is intended to treat only upon the American branches of our 
 family. The earliest data I have is from " Hotten's Emigration to Amer- 
 ica" which gives Francis GifFord having a 50-acre plantation planted (by 
 patent) in the " Corporacon of James Cittie." Virginia, in 1626. I find also 
 in the same volume that Edward GifFord emigrated from London, Eng., to 
 Virginia in the "Safety" Aug. 10. 1635, he being 30 years of age. I find 
 nothing more relative to these two. 
 
 The next I find to be William GifFord who, according to " Huntington's 
 History of Stamford, Conn.," was before the court of that settlement in 
 1647 or before. The sentence of the court against him was that he be 
 whipped at the court's discretion and banished. 
 
 I believe this William GifFord to be the same William Gilford we find 
 living in Sandwich, Mass., and a member of the Grand Inquest at Plymouth 
 in 1650. 
 
 He continued to reside in Sandwich until his death with the exception of 
 five years between 1665 and 1670 when he with George Allen and the sons 
 of Peter Gaunt, all of Sandwich, together with others, were first proprietors 
 of and settled Monmouth, N. J., having purchased the land of the Indians 
 and to whom the Monmouth Patent was granted, 8 April 1665. They being 
 adherents to the Quaker faith, suffered severely by fines and vexatious suits 
 both in Massachusetts and New Jersey. 
 
 William GifFord owned land in Massachusettss, Rhode Island and Con- 
 necticut. His Massachusetts possessions consisted of lands in Sandwich, 
 Falmouth and Dartmouth. The facsimile of deed accompanying this volume 
 represents a 40-acre parcel purchased of a Suckanessett (Falmouth) Indian 
 named Job Attukkoo, July 24, 1673. 
 
 He gave by will to his sons Jonathan and James lands in Falmouth, Mass. 
 He also deeded to his sons Robert and Christopher, lands in Dartmouth, 
 Mass., both of whom erected homesteads upon their estates. Robert con- 
 tinued to live in Dartmouth while Christopher moved later to Little Comp- 
 ton, R. I. Both have many descendants now living in southern Massachu- 
 setts and Rhode Island. 
 
 William probably deeded his Connecticut lands to his son John who 
 gave by will 100 acres in the Colony of Connecticut to his son Samuel 
 and 200 acres to his grandsons. 
 
 The descendants of William are here given as the Massachusetts branch.

 Seeking Relatives. 
 
 Isabel L. Bryan writes from Mayaguez, July 7, 1893, to the New York 
 Tribune as follows: 
 
 " Two respectable young ladies want to find relatives in the United 
 States, and hope that you will kindly help them through your newspaper. 
 Their title to the sympathy of all American hearts is that their greats 
 grandfather fought in the wai^of independence; their grandfather was 
 American consul in Puerto-Rico; their father, Edward Gifford, died years 
 ago. They are not certain if he was from New Bedford or from Boston, 
 Mass. There were a John Gifford, manufacturer of machinery, and his 
 sister Sarah, uncle and aunt of the young ladies' father, and a George Gif- 
 ford, his brother, who lost an eye in the United States service during the

 Stephen GiiFord was an original home lot owner, with all the privileges of 
 a first proprietor, at Norwich, Conn., 1659, although at this, the time of dat- 
 ing the deed of the first purchase, he was not believed to be of age.
