6549. Thomas J. Faussett
Tom Faussett was and auctioneer and placed the following reprint of a
newspaper article in a newsletter that he published. (From MEW
reference material): "TOM FAUSSETT DELVES INTO FAMILY GENEALOGY FOUND
AT BOSTON LIBRARY. Tom Faussett, Howell's nationally known
auctioneer, while delving into family genealogy while in Boston,
Mass., found an interesting history of his grandmother's ancestry.
"The Marvin Family" published in 1904. The book consists of 658 pages
and is arranged on what is known as the "Register plan" used by the
Northeast Historical Society. It was founded on a 58 page book,
entitled "Genealogical Sketch of the Descendants of Reinhold and
Matthew Marvin," printed in 1845. Mary Ann (Marvin) Faussett, a
grandmother of the Faussett and Webb children, was of the Matthew
line. According to Drake's "Early Founders of New England," Matthew
was one of 12 who formed the company known as Adventurers April 15,
1635, in England. His name appears on the monument of the first
settlers of Hartford, as of 1635. One of the historical charts,
according to the late Chancellor Reuben H. Walworth, himself of the
Matthew line, shows that from Mary Marvin II, came Samuel V.
Huntington, one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. On
page 417 an account is given of a recorded marriage of Ebenezer II,
son of honorable Ebenezer to Cynthia Janes of Canada, a descendant of
Governor Bradford of the Mayflower. One of the most colorful events
as told by Capt. Ozias Marvin, who provided the militia with supplies
when he lead them with the troops of Stamford against the British when
landing at "Compo" is that of General Washington. The house built by
the Captain was an Inn. General Washington, according to family
traditions, with a party stopped there to spend the night. Mrs.
Marvin went to considerable trouble to provide the party with an
excellent meal. When the General sat down to eat he asked for a bowl
of bread and milk, the bowl of which is now a museum piece. Esther
Marvin, a girl of 19, it is stated, shrunk from the proffered kiss of
the General when he was leaving. General Washington jestingly replied
she might live to repent for her shyness. Valuable portions of the
family record have been preserved as far back as 1435 by copies of
wills, found in England. Mary Ann (Marvin) Faussett is buried in
Deerfield Township alongside Nancy (Carter) Faussett, the first burial
in the Sharp Cemetery. On the female side of the Marvin family came
three chief justices of the Supreme Court of the United States. Mrs.
Fred Salmon of Deerfield when naming one of her three sons, gave him
the name Marvin, who is Judge Marvin Salmon of Lansing."Line 3388 from GEDCOM File not recognizable or too long:
