709 James Clark Parshall records:
"Connected by ties of consanguinity and marriage with many of its oldest and best families; possessed of abundant means; a gentleman in the sense in which the word was then understood, Israel Parshall was one of the most prominent men of his day in Southold. To the very considerable landed estate which he had received from his father, he added from time to time until he became, probably, one of the largest landowners in the township. In 1715, he appears as a private in 'Ye Soffolk Regt. Anno Don 1715, Henry Smith Col., Joseph Wickham Lieut. (Col.), William Smith Major.' Subsequently, in all probability he became Captain of the Southold Company, for toward the latter part of his life he is invariably referred to in contemporary records as "Capt." Israel Parshall. His will, dated 23 June, 1737, proved, 22 May, 1738, mentions his 'wife Mary.' To his son Israel he leaves his real estate, and to his daughters Jemima Terry, Elizabeth Davis, Keziah Mapes and Experience Reeve and to his son-in-law Christopher Youngs, he leaves £50 each. His son James, who was beyond question the eldest son, had died long before the making of the will, and consequently is not mentioned. Israel is the ancestor who, according to the tradition current among the descendants of his nephew Jonathan, fled from France after the revocation of the Edict of Nantes, and this tradition has been embalmed in a so-called history. Israel was born 1680, and the revocation of the Edict occurred 18 Oct., 1685, or when he was about five years of age. It is as clear and certain as anything within the range of human knowledge that Israel Parshall was born, lived and died on Long Island."

716 Joanna Loops records: Southold Town Records, Vol 2, pg. 411. "About 1680 John Budd began his purchases of the small lots, and after many years succeeded in securing the whole Field, of which he made a valuable farm. John Budd, probably the fourth from Lieut. John Budd, it is supposed, lived upon this Old Field farm till 1753, when Daniel Tuthill (son of Deacon Daniel) who had married John Budd's daughter, Mehetable, and his brother John Tuthill seem to have had possession and gave deeds for portions of the farm...." Budd, John IV (I4263)
 
717 Joanna Loops records: "John Tuthill was a man of great enterprise, energy and will, controlled and guided by strong common sense, honesty of purpose, and religious principle. No man had, perhaps, to so great an extent, the confidence of the community, as the record trusts of Richard Brown and others, bear ampel testimony. Tuthill was a trusty public officer and a worthy private citizen." 'J.W.C.' in Southold Town Records Tuthill, John [i] > (I3886)
 
718 Johanna Gertrude Huson was born in Holland on May 23, 1916,the daughter of Jan and Caroline DeJonge Huson.

Of their other children, Jason, Neil, and Kristin were born in Ithaca, N.Y., and Eric was born in Wilmington, Delaware. While they lived in Ithaca Johanna completed courses in child development at Cornell as time allowed, and operated a nursery school at their home on College Ave. When Charles moved to Dupont, the family first lived in Wilmington and then moved to Newark to a large house on the edge of the campus of the University of Delaware. Johanna operated a nursery school in this house, and completed more courses in child development at the ;University of Delaware, until she received her BS degree, in this field in 1957. Several years latter she completed the requirements for an ~ degree at this same school. Charles' death in 1960 upset plans for a larger nursery school, and Johanna moved with her younger children to a farm in Darlington, Maryland. She was teaching school in Dublin, Maryland, at the time of her death in an automobile accident on February 22, 1963. In 1946 at the end of ~*J II Johanna started the "Adopt-A Family" movement (assist a family in war-torn Europe), which soon spread across this country.

All the latter listings in the street directories list Thomas as a superintendent or manager of a paint company.

735 Julia A. Clark's gravestone was found among the Mulford Rose family plot at the Woodland Cemetery, Bellport, NY. This was the only gravestone in the plot not identifiable with the Mulford Rose family. It seems likely that there is a connection not yet determined.
