Pierson Genealogical Records by Lizzie B Pierson [1878]:10+. Abraham graduated from Trinity College Cambridge England in 1632. Arrived in America 1639. First in Boston whre he was ordained as Congregational minister then moving to Lynn Massachusetts 1640. He then moved to Southampton Long Island trying to make a settlement on the west end but the Dutch did not welcome them so retreated to east end of Long Island. Stayed until 1647 moving to Branford Connecticut. While living in this town he befriended the Indians learning their language he prepared a catechism for them giving them the opportunity to know God. Abraham opposed the union of the two colonies of Connecticut and New Haven. He also disapproved of the clergy in the Connecticut colony concerning infant baptism. In that time period no one could be made freeman unless in full communion with the church. He moved again in 1666 to Newark New Jersey with most of his congregation purchassing land from the Indians laying the foundation for this city. Some sixty five men had followed him to this new settlement. The church organization he brought with him later became Presbyterian Church. He lived among his church members for twelve years dying there 9 Aug 1678.

Connecticut Puritan Settlers, 1633-1845: First Settlers of the Colony. Pierson, Rev. Abraham, was the first clergyman settled at Branford. He united with Davenport in opposing the union of the two colonies in 1665 with great inflexibility. He was rigid to excess in church communion, and disapproved of the liberality of the clergy in the Connecticut colony in this respect; he differed with them upon the ordinance of infant baptism, &c., as no person in the New Haven colony could be made a freeman unless he was in full communion with the church. He fully agreed with Davenport and some others in that colony, that no other government than that of the church should be maintained in the colony, and opposed any union with Connecticut for the reason that a good character and an orderly walk, with 30 estate, or had held office in the colony, was all that was required to make a man a freeman in the colony of Connecticut, which would mar the order and purity of the churches. And he unquestionably feared it might weaken the power of the clergy, who had possessed the entire control of the government over the people of the colony of New Haven. Indeed Mr. Pierson was so much dissatisfied, and most of his church and congregation united with him, (Dr. Trumbull says) that they soon left Branford and removed to Newark, N. J., and carried with them, not only the records of the church but the town records also. After it had been settled about 25 years, he left the place nearly destitute of inhabitants; and Branford was not resettled until about 20 years after Mr. Pierson left it. Some of his descendants are now of the best families in New Haven and Hartford. He was from Yorkshire, England, and came to Boston and was there a member of the church--he went from thence to South Hampton, L. I., as their minister, and from thence he removed with a part of his church to Branford, and for the cause before related, he with his church removed to Newark, where many of his descendants now reside. (He is noticed in this work because South Hampton had been under the government of Connecticut.)

PROBATE: Wrote his will 10 Aug 1671 & proved 12 Mar 1678 at Newark. His inventory valued at 854.17.7.

Narratives of Newark(In New Jersey) by David Lawrence Pierson, [1916]: 31-33: "If God takes me away by this sickness, or until I have made a more formal will, of a future date, then I do make and constitute this my last will and testament, being firmly persuaded of the everlasting welfare of my soul's estate and my body's resurrection to eternal life by Jesus Christ, my dear and precious Redeemer.

Imprimis. I will that all my debts be duly and truly paid as they are expressed and recorded in my broad book for reckoning, which I brought from Brandford, being carefully understood because of imperfections of the writing, or whatever else shall appear due to any though not there recorded.

2dly. That my wife shall have the thirds of my whole estate, to whose love and faithfulness I commit the bringing up of my children and do appoint her my sole executrix and give her my great Bible and what other English books she pleaseth to choose.

3dly. For my choice and precious daughter Davenport I will that her hundred pounds be made good, which I promised her upon her marriage, always provided that if upon just account of mine estate and debts, my other daughters have an hundred pounds a piece, that she shall be advanced as much as any.

4th. For my son Abraham, I do will that besides what he has had, or any horse kind he hath that he shall have all my books (except what by particulars I give to any) together with the frame belonging to the books; upon which consideration I will that he sh. pay back again to the estate eight pounds in part of the portion of my daughter Mary, upon her marriage day, or two after.

For my next three sons, Thomas, Theophilus and Isaac, I will that they sh. have my whole accommodation of lands layed out or to be layed out within the limits of this plantation, always provided that my wife's thirds shall be at her sole disposal, during the continuance of her natural life. For my son Thomas, I do not bring in on his account either the home lot which the town gave him, or any horse kind which in former times I gave Him. I will that he have a sufficient house lot upon his home lot in part of portion, and do give him Dr. Hall his paraphrase upon the Bible as a token of my love. For my two youngest sons, I would have them in due time to have each of them half of the homestead. Finally, all my just debts paid and my wife's thirds kept entire, I would have the whole of my remaining estate to be divided as portions to the rest of my children to wit: my three sons and four daughters according to equal valuations and proportions, the same to be payable on the day of their respective marriages, or one month after; but if they be not married, then, the male children--their portions sh. be payable when they are of the age of twenty. Furthermore, I would have my two lesser boys, to be taught to read the Eng. tongue and to write a legible hand, and all my chd. that be at home with me to have each of them a new Eng. Bible and a good Eng. book out of the library, such as they by the advice of their mother sh. choose. Likewise, I do request and hereby ordain my trusty and well beloved brethren and friends, Mr. Jasper Crane, Mr. Rob. Treat, Lieut. Swaine, Brother Tompkins, Bro. Lawrence and Bro. Sergeant Ward, to become supervisors of this my last will and testament, to be helpful unto my wife, and to see that this my last will be faithfully executed, and when any one of these sh. die or depart the place, the rest sh. with my wife's consent appoint some faithful man to fill up the empty place. In witness whereunto I have set my hand, the day and year first above written."

ABRAHAM PIERSON.

Witness, THOMAS PIERSON.

The net value of Rev. Abraham Pierson's estate was 822 pounds, a portion of which was incorporated in the library of 440 volumes, one of the largest private collections of books in the Western World. Best of all was the legacy of a good name which he bequeathed to posterity, and the influence of which is felt in our community in this remote day.

John Winthrop, Jr., of Connecticut, The First Govenor of the East End

The Reverend Abraham Pierson, pastor of the Branford church in New Haven Colony, condemned Connecticut

s ecclesiastical system as far too loose, and in 1667 he led most of his Branford flock to a wilderness site not far beyond Manhattan where they founded a town called New Ark--the town we know today as Newark, New Jersey.

She was undoubtly the mother of his children and the oft-repeated claim she was Abigail Wheelright never supported by evidence can be dismissed as without foundation. "
