Notes
a. Note:   Betsy Hogarth remembers #1
  ________________________________________________________
 Remembrances
 by Aunt Betsy Hogarth- Daughter of John Hogarth and Jane Scott
  My grandfather John Hogarth came to America from County Down Ireland when my
 mother was eight years old. They came in a sailing vessel. Steam ships were
 then unknown. They were eight weeks in the ocean. There was a severe storm
 on the voyage and my grandfather thought the vessel would go down. The
 hatchways were nailed down to keep the water out - but still it dashed in and
 my grandfather had to hold bed covers over the births to keep the family dry.
 At last my grandfather said to my grandmother give me your hand Jennie once
 more before we go to the bottom. The storm abated however and they were all
 saved.

 In reviewing both of our files I find the following differences. Y = Your
 file, M = My file
 1. Y #2 John Hogarth + Seely, Rebecca
 M John Hogarth + 1st Jane "Jennie" Scott - 2nd Rebecca Seely Bloomer (per
 our phone conversation)
 2. Y #4 Dennis, Mary Hogarth + Hodson, Francis Day
 M Dennis, Francis D. + Rev Hodgson ( My Hodgson line ends here) 3. Y Dennis, James Hogarth + Demott, Jane
 M Rev. James H. Dennis only, my data ends here. 4. Y Dennis, Richard M Richard H. Dennis
 5. Y Dennis, John M Dennis, John Jr.
 6. Y Dennis, John b: Waterloo, Seneca Falls Co., NY should be Waterloo,
 seneca Co., NY
 7. Y Hogarth, Sally M Sarah "Sally" Hogarth
 8. Y 2nd wife of John Hogarth should be the 1st wife of John Hogarth ie.
 Jane "Jennie Scott
 9. Y Hogarth, Mary + Osborn, James is wrong should be Osborn, Thomas see
 Osborn file
 10 Y Hogarth, Alice + De Motte, James M Judge James Demott
 11. Y Hogarth, Elizabeth M Hogarth, Elizabeth "Betsy"
 12. Y Hogarth, John S. M Hogarth, John Scott, b: Patterson, New
 Jersey
 Other than the above, mostly minor, we agree to the lines. Before I can add the Hodgson line in we have to clarify if your Mary Hogarth
 Dennis and my Francis D. Dennis are one and the same person or if they are
 sisters. I don't show any Mary Hogarth Dennis for this family.
  Here is one of the letters we spoke of:
 Eliz. L Hogarth 1893
 John and Jane Hogarth came to America, July 12, 1792, from County Down,
 Ireland. They first settled at Paterson , N. Jersey, where their son, our
 father, John was born. The elder Children, Mary, Richard and Alice, were
 born in Ireland.
 Leaving Paterson after about two years on account of the prevalence of "fever and ague", they removed to the old home near Sheldrake, N. Y. some
 years after coming to this country. John Hogarth returned to Ireland,
 bringing back with him his father, Richard Hogarth, then about eighty years
 of age and a half brother, Thomas. Richard Hogarth lived about two years
 after coming to this country. He died in 1819, and is buried in the old
 Pulteney Street Cemetery, Geneva. He was for fifty years "clerk" of the
 parish to which he belonged in Ireland, and was a man of remarkable piety, a
 very devout churchman. Those who have remembered him have borne testimony to
 his saintly character, saying that he seemed to live in almost constant
 prayer. His first wife was Mary Brian, an only child and a remarkable woman,
 possessing a magnetic power over animals, could call the wild birds about
 her. Great grandfather always said that Aunt Betsy Hogarth strongly
 resembled her.
 Richard Hogarth had one brother Charles, who died unmarried, so our grandfather, John Hogarth had no aunt nor cousin. He had one full brother
 William, who settled in Virginia and died there, leaving one daughter of
 whose family we know nothing. The half brother, Thomas, before mentioned,
 died at Alexander, near Batavia, N. Y. His daughter was Mrs. Wm. Newman of
 Watkins. The father of Richard Hogarth was William Hogarth, a full cousin
 and close friend of William Hogarth the artist. They were named for the same
 grandfather.
 The story is that just before our ancestor, William, left England for Ireland which he did at the time of some of the great political disturbances
 of the day, the two cousins drank their farewell mug of beer together sitting
 on the grave of Robin Hood, Kirklers Park, Yorkshire.
 Our grandfather's first wife was Jane Scott of Glasgow. She had a brother, Robert, who died soon after his graduation at Glasgow University,
 with high honor. A sister of this grandmother came to America and married a
 Mr. Ourey near Cincinnati. After his death she married a Mr. Mc Cracken. A
 daughter of this marriage was the mother of Mr. John Hogarth Lozier of Mount
 Vernon, Iowa, four years ago the Prohibition Candidate for Governor of that
 state.
 Our grandfather John Hogarth died soon after his return from the visit to
 Ireland, from the effect of sea-sickness. The date of his death as taken
 from the headstone of his grave in the old family cot near Sheldrake, is Nov.
 25, 1817.

  My Very Dear Richard. Lisnasliggan, October 27th 1816
  I arrived safe and well at Belfast Sept. 28th after a passage of five weeks
 as comfortable as could be expected I lost no time in coming here where I
 found my father and brother well ( the manner of our meeting we hope to tell
 you ourselves) the old man's health is much better than I expected but he has
 lost his teeth which alters his looks greatly. His lungs are sound and his
 nerves as firm as ever they were. He applots the Cess and keeps the accepts
 of the Parish as usual and performs the Dutys of the clerk also - and both
 his sight and hearing are better than they were twenty five years ago. With
 great care and economy he has kept considerable property together and brother
 Tom has assisted all in his power. Had the season been as good as usual we
 would have tryed to go in the ship I came in but it has been and is the most
 deplorable summer and harvest any one remembers. The Grain is much injured
 and the turf almost all lost indeed the prospect of this place appears very
 grievous to me but i hope we will be with you the first opportunity in
 spring for Father has no Hesitation in going with me.
 I was disappointed of the Potash i mentioned to you in my letter from York. I
 miss'e some profit and perhaps some trouble. I request you to tell mother
 that I wish her to collect all the wheat she possibly can this winter. I
 wrote to her the 14th inst. but the prospect was not so bad then as now. I
 said nothing of collecting wheat. I think it would be prudent in you all to
 store all you can conveniently there will be time for you to write to me and
 I wish your advice what kind of Linnen will be most sellable for it is so
 cheap we intend to bring some. It can be bo't for a penney a hundred pr. yr.
 green the duty there is sixteen pr. Cent and there is a bounty here of three
 halfpence pr. yd. for all under eighteen pence hence I think from eights to
 twelves would be most profitable? How would it do to fetch them there. Try
 if Osborne can have a house for father and brother till my own is vacant
 which will be a year from now. I hope we will be in York the forepart of May
 I will write you when we land and fix the plan of our progress. I hope you
 will be attentive to Betsy and Jain remember my love to them and all your
 brothers and sisters tell my Dear John that I will write to him the first
 opportunity and would be glad of a letter from him to inform me how he is
 whether he is in Ogdansburgh or elsewhere. I hope you will inform me least
 he should not have a chance. Your letter to Father has never came to him.
 My best wishes to your family from the oldest to the youngest.
 Grandfathers words would come so far short of his wishes that he writes
 nothing till he sees you -- I remain till Death your loving
 Father John Hogarth (Note: This is a typed page and was probably taken from a hand written
 letter. I have corrected the typing errors. Larry Osborne)
  (Attached to the bottom is another typed piece from a different typewriter)
  It was in the little village of Troutbeck that the uncle of William Hogarth, the most truly English of all our great painters, lived. The genius of
 the Uncle, "Auld Hoggart" as he was locally called by his fellow yeomen,
 evidenced itself in a wonderful facility for composing rhymes, short dramas
 in verse and cynical epitaphs. Particularly satirical is the following, and
 typical of much that he wrote:
  " Here lies a woman, no man can deny it, She died in peace, although she lived unquiet. Her husband prays if e're this way you walk, You would tread softly - If she wakes, she'll talk."
