Putnam's Monthly Historical Magazine, Vol. 5: Devoted to Genealogy, History, Heraldry, Revolutionary and Colonial Records; Jan.-Dec., 1897 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Putnam's Monthly Historical Magazine, Vol. 5: Devoted to Genealogy, History, Heraldry, Revolutionary and Colonial Records; Jan.-Dec., 1897
Mrs. Jane Gr. Austin has written a very charming book, Betty Alden, but in regard to Betty Alden's character, she drew entirely from her imagination, and Betty's de scendants resent the title and description. They say she was dignified, a woman of greatl'character, and fine pres ence, very tall and handsome. In height she resembled her father, John, the tallest in the Colony - also her brother, Capt. John Alden, known asthe 'tall man of Bostonf.' In the list of the first baptisms in the'little Compton church, 1704, her name does not appear; but some names must be lost, for sixty-nine were baptized, and only sixty-three are n; Her husband was one of the organizers of the church. We must not lose sight of the sterling qualities of vvill 1am Pabodie. He was a man much employed in public affairs and of much respectability. J. O. Austin's Genea logical Dictionary of Settlers in Rhode Island gives very much about him, gleaned from the public records. He was town clerk of Duxbury, after Alexander Standish. When 'he took the office the town records were burnt, and he en -tered his own marriage, and births and marriages of his children, very carefully. Would he had done as much for the other families in Duxbury. He lived in D - uxbury, close to the Brewsters and Standishes, east of Eagle-nest Creek.
