FAMILY AND DESCENDENTS OF DANIEL DART OF BOLTON, CONNECTICUT

Compiled by
Frank B. Manning

Richard Dart, b. 1635 in Waterford, Connecticut. He married (1) /Bethia/, married 1664, d. ABT. 1705. He married (2) Mary Roe Dudley, married ABT. 1705. Richard died 24 Sep 1724.

The following is quoted directly from Bolton's book:

"According to the town records quoted by Miss Calkins in her History of New London, Richard Dart with a number of companions appeared in New London in 1662. After remaining there for some time he with his companions were ordered by vote of the town council either to become citizens or to make their departure. Richard chose to become a citizen. He bought a house Sept. 12, 1664. He was one of the grantees for the town of Waterford to receive additional lands from the King. The house he built is still standing and it is a good example of early colonial architecture; it is located within the town of Waterford. Apparently Richard became a man of influence for his name appears frequently in the town records and his will would indicate that he accumulated considerable property. His will, dated Apr. 4, 1711, refers to his oldest son, Daniel, as having been "ungrateful and treacherous to me" and accordingly his property is left mostly to his second son, Richard. It appears that Bethia, his wife, died, perhaps near the year 1705 and Richard married Mary (Roe) Dudley. The date is not known. She was the widow of William Dudley. Upon the death of her father and mother she became Lady Dudley of England. (Col. Records.) Her will is dated June 15, 1726 and the settlement of the estate was made May 7, 1728. In the will she mentions, her own sons, William and Daniel, a grandson and a daughter, Elizabeth, married to Joseph Remington. She mentions her "son-in-law," Roger - we should now say "step-son."; "

The following was transcribed from "Flashbacks" by Phyllis Swinsick, Tioga Printing Corporation, 1993, p 41.

Military service: He was a musician in the Revolutionary War, and marched in Col. Ashley's 7th Co. He was made Colonel of the Militia (probably in Vermont) and in his commission, his name was spelled Dartt, and he and his children have retained it this way. Dartt Settlement was named after Col. Justus Dartt, a revolutionary War veteran who purchased 10 acres lf land in Catlin Hollow in 1811, of which only 10 acres of land had been cleared. He operated a saw-mill until 1830, served as a county commissioner in 1815, s a Wellsboro Academy trustee and was the first postmaster in 1822. A later postmaster with the same last surname, a James Dartt, once received a check for 3 cents due him, said to be the smallest government check ever issued in the country.

The following was transcribed from "History of Tioga County Pennsylvania",
W. W. Munsell & Co., 1883, pp 116-117.

Colonel Justus Dartt, a soldier of the Revolution, and colonel in the Vermont militia after the Revolution, settled in what is now known as Dartt Settlement in the year 1811. He purchased 160 acres, only ten of which had been cut over. At this time the only settlers in the whole township were Moses Wheeler, Levi Elliott, Oliver Willard, Sleeman Shumway, Caleb Austin, Nathan Niles, Rosel Bailey, and Timothy Culver. . Charleston was then a portion of the township of Delmar.
The first school in the township of Charleston was opened in Dartt Settlement. Colonel Dartt was one of the county commissioners in 1815, and in 1817 was named one of the trustees of Wellsboro Academy in the act of Legislature incorporating it. The first church edifice in the township was built in Catlin Hollow, and the next year, through the energy of the Dartts, one was erected in Dartt Settlement. The first circuit preacher was Rev. Hiram Warner. Colonel Dartt was an enterprising, industrious and public spirited gentleman, and he and his descendants have made that portion of the township one of the most prosperous agricultural sections of the county. On the old farm were growing this year splendid crops of tobacco, corn, wheat and oats, and all orchard products in abundance.
Colonel Justus Dartt died July 5th 1838, aged 81 years, and his wife Hannah January 14th 1844, aged 86, and they are buried in the old graveyard near the church in Dartt Settlement. The remains of many of the old settlers lie in that silent city of the dead, among whom are Justus Dartt jr., who died June 16th 1865, aged 84 years and 6 months; Polly, his first wife, who died December 13th 1819, aged 35 years; James G. Dartt, who died March 8th 1823, aged 38 years; Aurelia, second wife of
of Justus Dartt jr., who died 1828, aged 37 years; Rosel Bailey, aged 58, who was killed by the upsetting of his wagon October 24th 1840; Lucinda his wife, who died December 3rd 1822, aged 37 years, and Aseneth, wife of Robert Baily, who died December 10th 1822, aged 63 years.
In the new graveyard on the hill in Dartt Settlement are buried Justus M. Dartt, who died March 25th 1877, aged 73 years; Hiram Warner, who died April 16th 1878, aged 78 years; Aurena Atherton, aged 81, and Maria S. Marvin, daughter of Rev. George Spratt.
Among the decedents of Colonel Justus Dartt is his son Cyrus Dartt, who was born in Castleton, Vt., October 25th 1800. He came to Tioga county with his parents, and endured all the hardships of pioneer life. In 1820 he married Miss Lydia Kelly. Their children were Horace, Solon S., Hiram W., Charles M., Lydia Ann (wife of Adam Klock), Irene (wife of Robert Roy), Phidelia (wife of John Wortendyke), and Amelia (wife of W. L. Richards, State mining inspector). Mr Dartt was again married in
1837, to Matilda Sweet. Their children were: Albert, J. P., Elnora ( wife of L. P. Potter) and Hannah (wife of Frank Holden). Mr Dartt is one of the few remaining who saw Charleston township a wilderness, without roads, without schools, without churches, without any of the conveniences of life; and now behold it as one of the finest agricultural districts in the county, with roads, schools, churches, and all the appliances of wealth and prosperity. A saw-mill was early built by Colonel Dartt, which enabled him and his neighbors to erect suitable framed buildings and clear up the county. Dartt Settlement is on the western line of the township of Charleston, about four miles from the courthouse at Wellsboro.

Tolland Book of Land Deeds, Vol. 14, p. 329;
On 9th April 1822 Chester Dart of East Windsor purchased land from John Aborn of Tolland. This shows the approximate time that Chester moved from East Windsor to Tolland.

In 1824 he purchased about one acre from Oliver Lord located near his sawmill on Burbank Road and Bald Hill Road.

In May 1825 he purchased land from Ashbel Chapman and in August 1828 he purchased a few more acres from Ashbel Chapman and Charles Chapman.

On December 16, 1861 there is another deed. This deed states " Know Ye, that I Chester Dart of Tolland in the County of Tolland and State of Connecticut for the consideration of Three hundred Dollars received to my full satisfaction of my son Albert Dart of Vernon in sd cnty and state do give, grant, and bargain, sell and confirm unto the said Albert one certain farm on which I now live in said Tolland containing about twelve acres of land .......... etc. The condition of this deed is such that whenever the said Chester Dart is indebted to the said Albert Dart by promissary note dated December second eighteen hundred and fifty one for the sum of three hundred dollars payable on demand with interest. Now if the said Chester Dart shall pay said note within one year from this date according to its true intent and meaning then this deed to be nulle and void otherwise to remain in full force? power and vintue?." This deed identifies his son Albert of Vernon.

The death records in Tolland state his age as 75, which verifies his birth year, listed on p. 191 of the Thaddeus Bolton book.

Chester was listed in the census of Tolland in the years 1830, 1840 and 1850. In the 1850 census he is listed as a joiner carpenter, age 60, wife Laura age 57, daughter Pamelia age 25, son Charles E. age 19, son Rastus E. age 19, and daughter Phebe A. age 14, and all born in Connecticut.

ALBERT DART in ELLINGTON:

Ellington - Chronicles of Change, by Dorothy Cohen, Historian, 1987, Town of Ellington, CT.

In an article on Daniel Halladay, inventor, the article discusses John Burnham, Jr. and his partner Henry McCray, who manufactured pumps. " The partners leased an upper south room that was reached by an outside flight of stairs on the east side of the blacksmith shop owned and operated by Albert Dart. The shop stood on the south side of present day Main Street next door to Dart's house and orchard. Dart agreed to erect a barn on the property for their mutual use to be completed within four months, and also lease his house for two years, all for $125 a year.


CENSUS INFORAMTION:

Albert's father, Chester, appears to have moved from East Windsor to Tolland about the time of his birth in 1823. Albert's obituary says he then went to live in Somers while very young. That is probably why he is not listed with his father in the 1830 census of Tolland. It is possible that the census mark was placed i the incorrect column and he is in fact the one listed as being 10 - 15 when he actually 5 to 10. He did have a brother and a sister that both died about he same time. Obviously some disease probably went through the family. This could have been the time he was sent off to Somers to live with an Aunt or Uncle that lived there.

If he was living with another family during the 1840 census his name would not show up.

He shows up in the 1850 census of Vernon, age 27, and occupation as a blacksmith.

DART MILL

Important Manufacturing Enterprises.

Some time ago, when the gigantic water wheel just completed by Albert Dart, Esq., was in process of construction, we promised our readers in due time to give them a description of this wonder of mechanical ingenuity and skill, and also some account of the building enterprises progressing under Mr. Dart's direction and proprietorship. We found time yesterday to spend an hour upon the premises of this gentleman, and by his favor gleaned the facts embodied in this article. We can scarcely give any description either of what is progressing or completed here, without going back a few years for a starting point. We have seen a photograph, taken seven years ago, of the premises now occupied by the Carlisle, the Rose Silk, the shoddy mill, the Leonard Silk, and Mr. Dart's new mill, with the dwellings around them. Where are now symmetrical and stately edifices, then appeared a scanty growth of trees, with willow and alder skirting the irregular margin of the river, the surface of the soil uneven, and the general appearance altogether uninviting to any observer. It has been the work of seven years to effect the changes already made, and it will be yet other years before the designs of the proprietor can be fully carried out and the enterprise pronounced complete. The last finished of Mr. Dart's mills stands almost directly west of the Rose Silk, being a prominent edifice, which seen from the village below seems to stand guard over adjacent structures. This edifice proper is 80 by 30 feet, five stories high; with the wheel-house its dimensions are increased to 160 by 30 feet. The masonry, wood work, etc., of this mill are all done, and the shafting is now being put in, preparatory to occupancy. All but two of the rooms are already let, and the tenants take possession as soon as the shafting is all up. Upon the east of this stands the mill occupied by Leonard & Lockhart, in the manufacture of sewing silk. This building is 85 by 40 feet, and has three floors. Upon the west is a building 100 by 50 feet, now in process of erection, the two lower floors of which are to be occupied by Burt & Putnam, wheelrights; and parties are at present negotiating for a lease of the upper floor for an entirely new branch of business. These three mills are or will be supplied with power from the same source, viz: the great wheel which hangs caged in the massive wheel-house upon the north of the main building. To form a correct idea of the immensity of this "revolving lumber yard" one must go around it, and look away through it, or get above it and peer to the bottom of the wheel pit. In diameter it is 55 feet, with 7 feet 2 inches face. It contains over 35, 000 feet of lumber, and 12 tons of iron work in one form or another. It has 192 buckets, breast, the water reaching the buckets at about Ľ to 11. The shaft is live oak 4 feet in diameter. Every appliance of modern invention which good judgment could approve, has been made in hanging the immense wheel, and the result comes about as near perfection as human effort can reach. So nicely are the bearings adjusted, so accurate is mechanism of the wheel itself, that it revolves with a variation of but about 1/8 of an inch in its entire circumference, while its revolutions occasion no perceptible jar of tremble in any part. The capacity of the wheel is about 250 horse power, or more than sufficient to carry 30 sets of woolen machinery. It appears to be the most thoroughly built, being braced and counterbraced with such a net-work of iron and wood as to make it for firmness about equivalent to solid iron itself. The cost of the wheel and wheel-house was over $12,000. It is believed to be the largest wheel in the country. It was made by Messrs. Burt & Putnam, of this town, whose always excellent reputation as wheelrights has, by this achievement, reached the pinnacle of fame. The castings were made at Murless's foundry, and finished at J. J. Synyer's machine shop, and the forgings were by Pat. Hurley; so that the wheel may be said to be altogether a home production, reflecting no little credit upon the skill of the Rockville mechanics. The wheel-house has a solid rock for its foundation, while its walls are solidity itself, as indeed is the masonry of all the structures. This department of construction has been under charge of Mr. Thomas McGee, who evidently understands his business.

Within the principal mill, as well as elsewhere, we noticed a novel self oiling bearing attached to the various hangers where shafting had been or is being put up. It is an extremely ingenious and effective arrangement, and we are informed is the invention of Mr. Sibley, superintendent of the Mowrey Machine Works, Greeneville, Conn. All the shafting, as well as pulleys and gears, in these mills (except first motion) are from this establishment. The casting of gears and segments, first motion, were furnished by Murless and finished by Synyer. The main drum, with a four-feet face, is 17 feet in diameter; it has a very heavy double belt, which, with all other belting on the premises was supplied by C. Underwood of Tolland. In the boiler room is a very large steam boiler, from the works of Pitkin Brothers of Hartford. All piping is from the same place, and we noticed that wherever valves were needed the famous Frink valve (also a home production) found a place. Thomas Dwyer is the faithful boss in the boiler house.

Mr. Augustus Truesdell has furnished designs for all of Mr. Dart's buildings, and for the proposed new mill, 300 feet long, to be erected south-east of those above described. Mr. J. G. Bailey has done the joiner work of the new mills, and C. P. Emery the brick-laying and plastering.

We heartily approve Mr. Dart's theory, that a diversity of business is essential to the permanent welfare of a town; and we certainly hope that his efforts to stimulate an influx of business and population may meet their just reward. It may be well to place on record on of his propositions, made in good faith, to which we cal particular attention. Mr. Dart says: "To any party wishing to establish in Rockville a new branch of paying business, which will give employment to 100 operatives, I will give necessary grounds for building and furnish 50 horse power, free, for a term of years." This is liberal, and will, we trust, meet response.

In passing through these mills, and particularly in watching the majestic motion of the immense water-wheel, we could scarcely help contrasting the present gratifying results with the gloomy and discouraging predictions of many who originally doubted the possibility of making so large a wheel work. We recollect that the project was carried forward against the judgment of many sound-minded men, and despite the actual ridicule of some, the proprietor and the master mechanics retaining their confidence through it all. It must now be very gratifying to Mr. Dart and the builders to find that the wheel more than answers every expectation. Scores of practical machinists and manufacturers from various parts of the country have visited the place sorely to see this king of water-wheels, and all view it with astonishment and admiration. It is a "moving" proof of what may be accomplished by men who determined to succeed.

LETTER FROM ALBERT DART.

To the Voters of the Town of Vernon:
GENTLEMEN: After an absent of five months, I have returned to Rockville. Circumstances, caused by no friends of yours, or mine, (to say the least,) prevented me from the completion of my report, that the law required me to make on the 4th of October, 1869, as Agent of the Town. The Auditor's Report that you have received is taken from the town books, kept by A. Holt, which is in the main correct, as far as the expenses of the fiscal year is concerned; but they do not include any old contracts, or notes of the town paid by me, as Agent of the Town. As there has been correspondents from Rockville to different papers in this State, and elsewhere, in regard to the financial management, and that I have been reported as a defaulter, to a large amount, by the Auditors of the town accounts; this was the date of Sept. 24th, 1869. This you see, gentlemen, was false in every particular; for I was then in town, and had not been absent from Rockville, for one year, 36 hours at least. Now as regards my being a defaulter, bear with me in my statements. - For the last twenty years in Rockville, If I have had any pet scheme it has been to build up Rockville and benefit Vernon. -You all know with what success.

But of this I will not speak only as I have served you as town officer. Of the twenty years that I have been a citizen of Rockville, I have served you to the best of my judgement in the office that your votes have placed me. As Surveyor on the Roads, and Agent of the Cemetery, I have served the town eleven years; for this service I have not received one dollar. I have been elected and served the town of Vernon as Selectman five years; with what success you must be judge. I will not attempt to state why the Auditors of town accounts left out of their reports notes given in 1865, 6-7, and perhaps 1868. The statement in the Springfield Republican, of October 19th, 1869, is false in regard to the expenses of 1869. If this is the Auditor's report they must have made some mistake, for I do not think they meant to injure me. They without doubt (one of them at least) knew that $7,000 in notes were not included, there were also old claims to the amount of from $7,000 to $8,000, which did not, under any circumstances, belong to the expenses of 1869. - Now, gentlemen, is this right to add the expenses of other years to 1869, which makes a difference of nearly $15,000, which is not the expenses of that year? Is it fair and just that I should be charged with the expenses of others? But of this I will leave you to judge. I will speak only of the expenses of the last twenty years, paid by me while serving as officer of the town. I will include only that which is east of Vernon avenue, on public improvements; that is to say, all the bank walls, land damages, culverts, railings on Main and Brooklyn streets and Vernon avenue, ending at the Rock Co.'s dye-house; this does not include the railing on the New England Bridge, so called. I will now speak of the three years that I served you, during the war, as Selectman. By a vote of the town to procure volunteers, and pay bounties, I sent seven men to the field and paid bounties. I sent Trumbull Tracy, and others to the army of the Potomac, which was approved of by the Selectmen; I also went six different times for the interest of the town to the army; the expenses of bringing home the bodies of three of those volunteers were paid by me in full. I will say nothing of what I paid families of deceased soldiers, which amounted to several hundred dollars, -- You may with all propriety ask why this bill was not presented to the town, which amounted to $4,300. Then I had a favor to ask of the town, which, if granted, would, at that time, have been considered as a fair offset, (which was promised me by the Selectmen of the town), although I could at that time, by a vote of the town present a bill and receive payment in full. Now I will speak of 1865, in which I acted as Agent of the town. By a vote of the town I was not restricted in any manner. I had a right to make agreements, sign notes, or contracts for the interest of the town; as a proof of this I refer you to the records. And I, as Agent of the town, approved of the agreement of 1864, made to the owners of the Paper Mill property, so called, and further agreed that all improvements made on Main street, commencing near Joseph Selden's store and running east to the Panola Mills, under the approval of the Selectmen, would be paid, one half by the town of Vernon, the other by the owners of the Paper Mill property, or might be done previous to January 1st 1870. The owners of the Paper Mill property made extensive improvements under this agreement, and no bill that year was presented for any expenses east of Selden's store, except one culvert - less than $50. Then of the improvementss west of the American Mill on Main and Brooklyn streets, the whole bill presented to the town amounted to $3,000 in all, of this the owners of the Paper Mill property paid one-half , on the condition, that the town should at some future meeting, by vote, cause to be straightened and widen Main street, commencing near Seldon's store, running east to the Panola Mill. Now this agreement was made, signed and subject to the approval of the town, not to exceed four years from date, in town meeting legally warned, the town voted all that agreement required, so that agreement became binding on the town in every particular, as regards the owners of the Paper Mill property. The owners of the Paper Mill property now hold this agreement with the forfeit. So much for 1865.

It now brings me to speak of 1869. I was elected Agent of the town without my consent, as I was absent from home at that time. I should not have served you on any condition if I had been; but under the circumstances, I concluded to do the best I could with the amount of other business I had, with an understanding that we should make as few improvements as possible, and thus lighten the town expenses. But, gentlemen, you know this; a petition was legally signed and presented to me for improvements on Main street; this I was in favor of, and the only one of 1869. I opposed from the first all improvements on Grove street and all other expenses, except general repairs on roads. C. Hunt at first agreed to this, but sometime in June 1869, the majority of the Board were against me; I submitted to their decision in regard to Grove street bridge. After a meeting had been called and some alterations had been voted, although I did not approve of them, as it would be a gr3eat expense to me, as no party was willing to take the contract at the stated price voted by the town. I was not in favor of any improvement unless it was substantial, and that the voters of the town would approve of. You all know the difficulties that I encountered with different parties in building the bridge; as I could not close my contract with parties without a great disadvantage to the town. I made on enemy sure, he says he will be my bitterest enemy as long as he lives; him I have some respect for, for I think he will do as he agrees. The only reason that I ever gave him for this assertion, (that I know of,) is this: In looking over the town indebtedness, the Auditors had not reported the amount of the notes and orders of several thousand dollars that should have been reported in 1866-7-8, as indebtedness to the town. I did not consider this gentleman guilty of any wrong at the time, and nothing of the circumstance was said by me outside of the board, for I have nothing but the kindest of feelings toward him and he has done much to build up Rockville. I have enemies of another kind that I do not know where to find; they will do nothing themselves, but will do all they can to prevent others from building up Rockville. And now in regard to bills paid by me. No order on the Town Treasurer has been given, only when signed by two of the Selectmen; no bills of 1869, to exceed $50, have been paid except by the approval of two of the Selectmen; no improvements have been made on roads or bridges without the approval of two of the Selectmen. In regard to Grove street bridge no extra work was done without their approval. In regard to my report before the Auditors, I have not made any for 1869. They had only the books and bills of that year, and justice done to all concerned, I think they were nearly correct, as concerned the year. - You may ask why I did not make a report? Well then no law of the State, or vote of the town of Vernon, required this report until October 4th, 1869. I was reported, (so the Springfield Republican says) by one of the Auditors of the town, Sept. 21, 1869, as a defaulter of the town to a large amount, which was false. I was absent less than thirty-six hours in all, on my own business.

I did not think that I was obliged to report to the town Auditors or the third Selectman my business of the 22d and 23d of September. Perhaps I did wrong in not having the particulars published in some paper, or placed on the bulletin board in Rockville or Hartford, for I was not aware that the gossip of Rockville was better posted in my affairs that I was myself. So much for my thirty-six hours absence from Rockville. On my return to Rockville, I of course received a very cool reception from the party who wished all they had said were true. I endeavored to explained (sic) to one of the Auditors the reason for my absence, and claimed my right as chairman of the board. I was politely informed by George Talcott, Esq., that I had better not assume any rights, for he should be sorry to shut up the first Selectman in the lock-up. Not being posted as to the powers delegated to the third Selectman, and knowing that all the departments were engaged for the present, I concluded to let Mr. Talcott and the Auditors have their own way, as I could not be of any service to the town, under the excitement of the day. I will close by saying, I have not received one dollar but has been paid on notes, bills, claims and agreements, that the town of Vernon has not by vote agreed to, except perhaps land damages on Grove street. Now if the town of Vernon will give the owners of the paper mill property the exclusive right they once enjoyed, that is now used by the public, then the amount which has been paid of five hundred dollars to the owners of the paper mill property for such damages will be returned to the Treasurer of the town. I also say to the town, and all others in Rockville and elsewhere, excepting those who have left their claims with the lawyer or sued them, will be paid in full at no distant day, although I have been crippled financially by the town officers and others in Vernon. Of my enemies I ask no favor. I will say to my friends, who have been true to the interests of Rockville, they have my thanks. - I can say to the public in truth, that until October 1st, 1869, I had never had any note protested at any bank with my name on it. No correct bill presented twice. I never was sued by any man for debt, and I never sued any party for debt, but have always been willing to help others when called upon. I have helped in different ways all those who have now sued me (with two exceptions), to three time the amount of claims the7 have against me; although I left every dollar of my property in Rockville, they were not satisfied until they could say, "I helped break him down, and drove him Rockville." Is this building up Rockville? Are they any better satisfied? Does the credit of Rockville stand any better financially? Does the First National Bank declare any larger dividend? Are the deposits in the Savings Bank more prosperous? Does the clergymen preach better sermons? And are men more honest? Do men attend to other people's business less? In fact, is any one any better satisfied? I hope so. With my best wishes for your future welfare and interest.
Albert Dart
Rockville, March 1st, 1870


TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS REWARD.

The subscribers having been connected with Albert Dart to some extent in business, and fully believing the statements of the Rockville correspondents to the Iowa and Nebraska papers, of date October 1st and 2d, 1869, and of the San Francisco papers, date October 5th 1869, and believing it for the interest of all concerned and wishing to be personally acquainted with the correspondents, we offer the above reward on this condition: That we receive the right name, or names, with proof that Albert Dart is a defaulter to the town of Vernon, or that he has previous to Sept. 24th, 1869, ever let his name be dishonored at any bank on the Atlantic or Pacific coasts, or that his draft or check has not been honored at nay banks in the States or Territories in the Union.

ALBERT DART OBITUARY

"TOLLAND COUNTY JOURNAL," Saturday June 3, 1882

An Old Resident Gone
Albert Dart, who died on Tuesday last at the house of Mrs. Gainer on Prospect street at the age of 59, was formerly one of Rockville's busy and enterprising citizens, being identified with some of its earlier building operations. Mr. Dart was born in Tolland and when quite a young man removed to Somers where he learned the trade of blacksmithing, afterward removing to Ellington, thence to Rockville in 1842, and carried on his business of blacksmithing for sometime. The Windermere mill was burned in 1854, and he brought the water privilege, after which he sold it to Hacker, Lee & Co., commission merchants of Philadelphia, who employed him to rebuild the mill. A short time after this he purchased the privilege of the gingham mill, afterward selling it to Clark Holt and Julius Rich who erected the present mill. After selling the gingham mill property, he purchased the mill privileges now occupied by Belding Bros, and Samuel Fitch & Sons and also of the stone mill which he erected. He graded the grounds upon which the mill stands. In these operations he was not successful, being obliged to compromise with his creditors. Mr. Dart was one of the selectmen for several years, and a prominent characteristic possessed by him, was, he kept his own counsel. A great trader, he thought more than he gave utterance to. For several years past he has not been engaged in active business.

Note: The death certificate for Albert does list his parents as Chester and Laura Dart. It also states he was born in Meredith. The location of Meredith is somewhat of a puzzle as the letters for the state are not recognizeable, but the first one is an N. It could be Meredith, New Hampshire as some families were in that area. His obituary and the 1850 census state he was born in CT. His father purchased land in Tolland shortly before the birth of Albert and stated he was from East Windsor, but a record of his birth is not found there or in Tolland.

The Dart Gainer Story

Since the death of Albert Dart, on Tuesday last, various rumors and contradictory stories have been rife upon the street, as to the relations said to have existed for a longer or shorter period between the deceased and Miss Rosa E. Gainer, whose residence has been his home during the latter years of his life. Miss Gainer having always been a lady, who has enjoyed an excellent reputation among all who knew her, both socially in her church connection with the First Congregational society, where she has long been an active member, it was the earnest desire of this paper to place the matter in its true light before the public. To this end the Gainer residence on Prospect street was visited by a representative of the Journal. Miss Gainer was not at home when we called, but were told that she would be shortly, and were politely requested to walk in and wait, which we did. Shortly Miss Gainer came in, and after a few remarks concerning the death of Mr. Dart, the reporter asked the privilege of seeing the deceased, who was then lying in an ice chest in the front hall. The request was readily complied with, and Miss Gainer accompanied the reporter to the hall, with a sister of Mr. Dart who was visiting the house. While the sister was at the front door, the reporter found an opportunity of introducing the subject, in answer to a question "whether there was anything more he wished to know about ?" when he simply said "that numerous reports were flying about the village, and it was with a view of correcting any falsehoods, he had called to get the real facts in the case, provided she wished to reveal them." Miss Gainer made no attempt at concealment, but merely asked advice as to her course of proceeding. The reporter told her, that now Mr. Dart was dead, there could be nothing gained by keeping the matter of a marriage between them, secret, provided there had been one, and when the public knew it, she would feel better about it as it would relieve her of burdening her mind longer with the subject. She at once said she was married, and asked if she should show her certificate of marriage, which the reporter consented to; whereupon she produced that document. This certificate simply stated that on the 21st of September, 1874, Albert Dart of Rockville, and Miss Emily Gainer, were married in New Haven, by Rev. Edward E. Atwater.
The lady remarked, that up to Sunday last not even her mother suspected it. She further remarked that Mr. Dart was exceedingly particular not to have a person know it, and she had promised him that no one should know it, and had kept her promise faithfully. She felt it to be her duty to marry him to take care of him, but felt sorry if she had done wrong in keeping it a secret. The lady appeared to be perfectly sincere in her motives, and the only reasons she alleges for marrying Mr. Dart are these: To take care of him and prevent him from spending any more money for patents, for which she was convinced he would never reap any benefit from. We are not at liberty to state all the conversation which took place, but are convinced that the lady has acted in a conscientious manner and intends doing her full duty, in the matter, and were we at liberty to state what the lady has done in a financial way, and what she proposes to do, she would be exonerated from any mercenary motives which some might attribute to her. It struck the reporter that when she entered into the state of matrimony with Mr. Dart she assumed a responsibility which few would like to undertake, and one which will take years to carry out to completion.

In June 1852 Albert Dart purchased about 212 acres, (three lots) of land from Earl Simons in Tolland for $1800.00. This land was north of the Turnpike to Snipsic Pond. See Tolland land Deed book, Vol. 20, page 117.

On pages 114 to 119 of Tolland County Deed book, Vol. (?) it mentions that Albert had purchased about 200 acres of land in Tolland north of the Tolland and Hartford Turnpike and on 12 December 1864 mortgaged it to the Savings Bank of Tolland. This is probably the land mentioned above. The court was petitioned to the fact that Albert Dart was justly indebted to the Savings Bank of Tolland in the sum of $2,0000.00. He was in default of his promissary note and this land was seized in May of 1870.

found in The Rockville Leader, Tuesday, Sept 16, 1930

Mrs. Rose Gaynor Dart, 94, widow of the late Albert Dart, died on Friday at her home in Plainville, after a lingering illness, having been in failing health since the time she left Rockville, about three years ago.
Mrs. Rose Dart, was born in Rockville, and lived for many years in the house which has been remodeled for use as the Rockville City Hospital. It was from the Gaynor family that Gaynor Place derived its name. Mrs. Dart is survived by her sister, Mrs. Kate Lucas of Plainville. Before their removal to Plainville, Mrs. Dart and Mrs. Lucas resided on Elm street. Mrs. Dart was a member of the Union Congregational church of the city, and also a member of the Burpee Women's Relief Corp.
Mrs. Rose Dart was a lover of flowers, and took great pride in tending to the flowers on the altar of the Union church, while she was able. She saw to it that flowers were furnished for the altar every Sunday, and when the members of the church no longer had any cultivated flowers with which to decorate the church, Mrs. Dart took long walks on Saturday afternoon through the woods and fields to pick wild flowers to place in the church for Sunday. She was a woman who was very much loved by all who knew her, a true friend, and during her life in this city she endeared herself to a large number of neighbors and friends.
Mrs. Rose Dart was employed for many years at Belding's Silk Mill. It was her expressed desire long before her final illness, that at her death among her bearers would be Elmer Leonard, Arthur T. Dickinson and E. F. Osborn. This wish was carried out. The other bearer was a nephew, Frank Gaynor of Plainville.
Rev. George S. Brookes officiated at the services in Lucina Memorial Chapel and at the grave of Mrs. Rose Dart in Grove Hill cemetery. Burial took place on Monday afternoon.

Her husband, Adrian Dart, owned a farm on the edge of South Windsor, and was a prominent and well known citizen in his day. He died just 26 years ago Monday.

From "Commemorative Geographical Record" page 1023
George Dart was born in South Windsor, where he grew to manhood. He attended the home schools and spent two terms at Manchester. Feb. 9, 1852, he married Harriet M. Thompson, a daughter of James A. and Maria (Barber) Thompson, and a granddaughter of John McKnight and Sabra (Allen) Thompson. Soon after his marriage he was given a farm of sixty acres by his father. Upon this he built a house and barn, and settled down for farming, but at the request of his father soon returned to the old homestead, where he devoted himself to the care and comfort of the parents as long as they lived. His entire life was devoted to farming and he threw himself heartily into it. Though a hard worker, he found time to devote himself to the interests of his town and church. In politics he was a Democrat and served in various offices, as selectman, assessor and representative. When he was fourteen years of age he united with the Congregational Church at Wapping and, in 1852, with his parents, united with the church at Vernon Centre. Intimately associated with the church for a number of years before his death he served it as deacon. He was a man of few words, but of strong convictions. Mrs. George Dart joined the Vernon Centre Congregational, Church in 1852, and is still a member.

George Dart of Manchester sold land to his son Albert C. Dart of Vernon (listed in Manchester Deed Book)

George Dart is found in the 1880 census of South Windsor, with wife Harriet age 48, son George W. age 20, son Albert C. age 18, and son Chas. O. age 15. All were born in Connecticut. Buried near them is an Albert C. Dart who died in 1862. It appears that after he died they had another son named Albert C.

Dea. George Dart
A second time since the advent of the year 1889, has the church in Vernon Centre been called to mourn for one who has been among its prominent members, and served it officially and faithfully. With the closing of the past week, closed the earthly life of Dea. George Dart, leaving a deeply stricken household, a bereaved church, and a mourning community. Only a few short months ago, who had filled for a time a like position in the church, was called hence after a brief illness, and to many who supposed him still in life and unbroken health, the Sabbath dawn brought the sad tidings of his sudden death, overcasting the glory of the sacred day with clouds of darkness and sorrow to many aching hearts. Again was the brightness of the Sabbath morning shrouded in gloom, as the mournful tidings came to us that Dea. Dart would worship with us no more in this earthly sanctuary, for a voice had said to him in the solemn stillness of the night, "Come up higher." Mournful indeed for us, but joyous for him who had entered into the "holy of Holies" and joined the sweeter service in the shining temple not made with hands. We could scarcely realize that we should no more see that familiar form in the accustomed place, nor listen again to his words of friendly greeting, he was an active and useful member of this zion which he loved and served so well. Consecrated to God in early youth, he united with the 2nd Congregational church in South Windsor, in August, 1842, whence his relation was changed, with that of his parents, to membership in the Congregational church in Vernon Centre, on the 1st day of January, 1852. In October, 1874, he was chosen as one of three deacons then elected, and retained that office through life. That this church, with all its interests, was closely shrined in his heart, his life gave ample evidence. In times of darkness and perplexity, let others change or fail us, he was ever loyal and true, endeavoring to bring to an amicable settlement any little differences which would naturally arise from various opinions and temperaments, and though he had his own decided views, he was ready to defer to the decision of the majority; a peace-maker and a peace-lover always; and ready to veil with Christian charity the faults of others; seeking rather to win by kindness than reproof. Zealous to promote the welfare of this people at all times, his generous hand often supplied deficiencies unknown to any save his most intimate friends. The objects of benevolence to which the church was went to contribute, were all dear to him, and we remember well with what reluctance he yield3d to the omission of any of these when the numbers of the church were decreased, and its finances proportionately diminished. His offerings were given freely and cheerfully, yet unostentatiously; as esteeming it a privilege and honor to be in any degree a careworker with the Master in the upbuilding of His glorious kingdom. It is sweet to remember, that that among his last conscious utterances were the precious words and rich promises of his Lord and Redeemer. The Sunday school, in which he was a teacher many years, ever held a warm place in his heart, and it was his delight to gather in all whom he could bring to his gospel feast so full and free. The light-hearted children little knew how the tall, quiet man who moved among them with a pleasant word and smile loved and cared for them, and longed to see them all safe within the fold of the Good Shepherd. But the teachers knew, and to them his kindly words of encouragement and appreciation of every effort to win and guide the little ones aright, were often as cold waters to a thirsty soul. Truly he will be missed and mourned by all who knew him. The church, the Sunday school, the community, and the many who claimed him as friend have bid farewell to one faithful and true. And to the nearer, dearer household band his loss is irreparable. To the large-hearted husband and father, these precious ones were a part of his very life and being. And as one by one, the three sons, grown to manhood, and the cherished only daughter, went forth from their childhood's home to form new ties, and take new responsibilities, he seemed but to hold them with a closer affection, and few days elapsed without some token of thoughtful care for them still, and each and all knew that in the father's home and heart there ever awaited them a royal welcome. Very tender was his love for the one petted grandchild, the sunny haired boy, too young to know his loss, thought his little heart seemed sorrowful as he asked with touching pathos, "Is my grandpa all dead?" What richer boon can we ask for these his dear ones, than that they make his early choice their own, the life which only is grand and noble, and truly joyful, and follow him even as he followed the Lord; growing meek for the better land, and making glad the heaven-born spirit, watching for them at the beautiful gate. Of their grief we may not speak; but our heart is full of tears for them, and we know that pleading prayers are breathed from trembling lips, that the God of the fatherless and the widow will hold them safe amid the surging billows, folding them close to the Heart Divine, and tilling each soul with His own love and peace.

Not dead - but born unto the __e eternal,
Gone hence to dwell on high,
Earths faded joys exchanged for the bliss supernal,
Where loved ones never die.

Not lost - though to our vision dim, uncertain,
Far, seem the gates of gold,
Their clearer sight may pierce the shadowy
Curtain,
And still earth's griefs behold.

Yet they weep not - they know the Father's
Chastening -
Is sent in tenderest love;
And swift the resurrection dawn is hastening,
When we shall meet above.

Oliver Dart met with an experience during the war of the Rebellion that few could have survived. He was a member of the 14th C. V. I., and Dec. 14, 1862, when the battle of Fredericksburg was at its height, a shell burst in the midst of Company D, his company, killing a number of men and blinding Mr. Symonds, of Rockville, while a fragment of the shell tore off the lower portion of Mr. Darts face and jaw, and inflicted a severe wound on his arm. For hours he was left on the field of battle, thought to be either dead or fatally wounded. With others he was sent to the hospital at Washington, being met on the way by his older brother, George, who found him neglected and in a terrible condition. From the hospital at Washington he was presently taken to the home of James Dart, where he underwent the first operation, his wound demanded. At the old homestead he passed through the second, and gradually made recovery. George Dart and his wife were almost constantly with their injured brother, and gave him every care and attention. In time he recovered, though the wound was always visible and in later years his mind was somewhat affected, undoubtedly due to the shock and the suffering that ensued from the injury.

From "Commemorative Biographical Record" page 1023
CHARLES OLIVER DART, a son of George Dart, was born in South Windsor, where he grew to manhood, attending the home school until he reached the age of seventeen years, when he began farm work in the town of Vernon, which he followed for three years. For a time he was employed as a watchman in the Hockanum mills. For a year he tilled a rented farm in Vernon, and in December 1891, purchased the George Hammond place at Vernon Centre. This is one of the attractive homes of the place. Mr. Dart began his farming in a modest way, giving special attention to dairying, and though he has been in business but a few years, he has built one of the largest and most profitable dairies in the town. He keeps thirty-eight cows and sells his milk at retail in Rockville. He has met with reverses, but he has overcome them in a large and courageous way. In 1898 he lost his barns by fire, but has rebuilt.
Mr. Dart was united in marriage, June 20, 1884, with Eva M. Isham, a daughter of Noah W. and Caroline F. (Sanford) Isham, and their son, Elmer Sanford Dart, was born Jan. 12, 1886. This young lad is now in the junior class at the Rockville high school. Mr. Dart is a Democrat, but has never had political aspirations. He, attends the services of the, Vernon Centre Congregational Church, and in a social, way belongs to the United Workmen and the Heptasophs at Rockville.
