A Crandall Family Reader
Articles about John Crandall and His People
Compiled by Judith Crandall Harbold and Cherry Fletcher Bamberg, FASG
(Northboro, MA: Judith Crandall Harbold, 2021). Paperback, 244 + xi pages,
indexed, illustrated. ISBN #978-0-578-69082-7.
The Rhode Island Genealogical Society is happy to announce that a revised version of A Crandall Family Reader, a compilation of recent scholarship on the immigrant ancestor and his descendants, is just off the press. Research into the life and family of John Crandall that has been dominated since 1949 by John Cortland Crandall’s Elder John Crandall of Rhode Island and His Descendants. Valuable as that book has been, genealogical standards and tools have evolved, and much excellent work has been published in different journals since the turn of the 21st century. The new material has been difficult to find. A Crandall Family Reader contains all the updates on John Crandall and his descendants in one place, carefully indexed. The rationale for changes to the genealogy in Elder John Crandall and derivative sites on the internet is presented. This new book features Paul Gifford’s newly revised article on the origins of the Crandall family in England as well as a four-part series of articles on the immigrant John Crandall’s life with considerable detail on his children. We include a transcription of Samuel Hubbard’s diary, a source that provides some of the best information on those early days in Newport and Westerly, Rhode Island. In one chapter, Jeff Howe describes how he found that a granddaughter of John Crandall fit in neatly as a lost wife in his Church family. Moving on to later generations, readers will find an article on Mintas Crandall, a black Revolutionary War soldier, and Joseph Crandall from upstate New York, who served briefly in the War of 1812. Joseph leads to his son, Adirondack guide Christopher Columbus Crandall whose long-suffering wife is studied. A new article on Judith Harbold’s Civil War soldier great-grandfather rounds out the genealogy. It is all wrapped up with Earl P. Crandall’s classic piece on the Crandall Coat of Arms and his pet project to discredit the idea that Crandalls ever had a crest at all.
This book was edited by Cherry Fletcher Bamberg, genealogist and editor of Rhode Island Roots where many of the articles first appeared. Updates were again reviewed, reformatted, and coordinated. This handsome book is a giant step forward in research into the Crandalls and allied families. We hope that you enjoy it.

John Clarke's World
by Cherry Fletcher Bamberg FASG and Judith Crandall Harbold,, 2018, Rhode Island Genealogical Society, Hope, R.I.
10x7, hardcover, dustjacket, 462+xxxiv pages. Illustrations, genealogical charts, maps, bibliography, index. ISBN 978-0-9827665-4-5.
JOHN CLARKE, one of the founders of Rhode Island, lived in a world very different from ours, a world of wonders, of religious explanations for natural and social events, of new beginnings and profound dislocation in his native country. He remains a more elusive figure than Roger Williams or Samuel Gorton. Nonetheless, John Clarke had brothers and sisters, three wives, friends and enemies, as well as communities of faith in America and in England. This book explores these connections as well as the settings of John Clarke’s life: the village in which he grew up, the towns he helped to found in Rhode Island, and the vast metropolis of London in which he won the Rhode Island Charter of 1663. Against the passionate opposition of Rhode Island’s neighbors, John Clarke’s championship of toleration of religion helped to make it one of America’s core principles.

From this entertaining tale of life in Providence during the year 1797, we discover the varied interests and concerns of the people who lived there at that time. They engaged in a joyous and lengthy celebration of President John Adams and a subsequent repeated celebration of the anniversary of American Independence. From the detailed offerings of the various merchants and tradesmen we are apprised of what was sought in the marketplace. We become aware of the nature of goods exported and imported in the foreign maritime trade as well as the identity of the various merchants, sea captains, and vessel-owners.

Thomas Clemence of Providence, Rhode Island and his descendants to the year 2007
Jane Fletcher Fiske for Roberta Stokes Smith (Greenville, R.I.: Rhode Island Genealogical Society, 2007).
Hardcover, 433+xxx pages, indexed, black-and-white illustrations.
ISBN 0-9604144-6-5.
This book covers all that can be learned of the immigrant Thomas Clemence who arrived in Providence ca. 1644, roughly the same time as Pardon Tillinghast. Readers who enjoyed Tillinghasts in America, The First Four Generations by Wayne G. Tillinghast will welcome the patient exploration of the Clemence family at that time in Rhode Island history. The discussion of Thomas Clemence's English background and possible connections with other settlers is particularly fascinating. The book does not stop with the very early generations but includes accounts of Thomas Clemence's descendants in the male line to the twelfth generation, right down to the present day. Marriages for Clemence daughters are given, with information about children, but the married names are not carried forward. Descendants include many families still in the Providence area, as well as concentrations in Kansas, Maryland, and elsewhere in the United States.

Daniel Stedman's Journal, 1826-1859
transcribed by Henry Clay Oatley, Jr., ed. Cherry Fletcher Bamberg
(Greenville, R.I.: Rhode Island, Genealogical Society, 2003)
Soft cover, 464+xxxi pages, indexed, black-and white illustrations.
ISBN 0-9604144-6-0.
Thirty-four years in the life of a farmer, justice of the peace, and shoemaker from South Kingstown are recorded in his journal and transcribed by Henry Oatley in whose family the journal descended. Daniel Stedman, a neighbor of "Nailer Tom" Hazard, another famous diarist of South Kingstown, recorded the events of his daily life during Rhode Island's transition from an agricultural society to an industrial one. Beyond his family life we follow the emergence of the movements promoting temperance and abolition, hear of the circus complete with lions, tigers, and elephants coming to Wakefield, and see the first trickle of Irish immigrants into the community. Blacks and Indians are frequently mentioned. Stedman recorded hundreds of deaths, including a number of suicides. Methods commonly included hanging and cutting one's throat with a razor (among men) and jumping down the family well (among women). A genealogical appendix helps identify members of Daniel's family who are mentioned in the journal. Fully indexed.

by Cherry Fletcher Bamberg
(Greenville, R.I.: Rhode Island Genealogical Society, 2001)
Hardcover, 614+xvi pages, indexed, black-and white illustrations.
ISBN 0-9604144-4-4-4.
John Gorton was elder of the Six Principle Church of East Greenwich from 1753 to his death in 1792, and his papers, now at Rhode Island Historical Society, document the life of the church and the many Rhode Islanders who used its services for baptism, marriage, and burial. His records include the names of luminaries like Nathaniel Greene and Catharine Littlefield, as well as sailors, farmers, tradesmen, Indians, slaves, and black and white soldiers in the Revolution. Gorton preached not only to the solid citizens of Kent County but also to people with a full range of human failings: men who abandoned their wives, pregnant brides, deserters, counterfeiters, and even an insane murderer. Footnotes provide hundreds of carefully researched "mini-biographies" of people mentioned. Introduction, index, illustrations.
