Charles Leonard practised medicine in Hempstead, L. I., for sixteen years.
He graduated from the P. and S., N. Y. City, March 12, 1844, and went to
California early in 1850, and returned June 6, 1868. Letter from Charles
Leonard Frost to his mother, written when he was crossing the plains to
California:

"Fort Laramie. "My Dear Mother: "I am in good health and enjoying the
journey very much. It is a very exciting life. All is wild, picturesque
and fascinating. The wild face of the country, its roaring torrents,
rugged hills, its fiery tribes of Indians, its immense herds of roaming
buffalo, all combine to render the nature of man different from what it is
in civilized life. "I can tell you at the start you must not expect to see
such a letter written on these plains as you would expect to see were I
sitting comfortably at my desk. I have commenced this letter some time
before reaching Fort Laramie, and will finish it at that place. My last
was dated at Fort Kerney, although written within eight miles of the Fort
on Platt River.

"18th of May. Traveled eight miles to Fort Kerney. Contains 15 buildings
built of square sod of the prairie 12 inches in size. It would be a
curiosity for you to see. Contains 240 troops, one store, one eating
house, 2 blacksmith shops, no provisions for sale. Owing to the dry, sandy
road the fillys of our wheels became loose. We had our tires cut by our
own blacksmith and fitted. I think they will now stand to California.
There are a number of ladies at this fort in the families of the officers.
Traveled this day 20 miles; good roads, water and timber scarce.

"19th. Left camp at 8 o'clock A. M., still on the trunk of Platt River.
Fort Kerney is 400 miles from Independence. Fort Laramie from Fort Kerney
is 340 miles. Traveled 10 miles and camped. No wood or water, grass only
tolerably good. Traveled 20 miles, camped on the main Platt River. The
river water is hardly drinkable. No wood, use buffalo chips. A light
shower this evening; grass tolerably good. Saw a number of buffalo. Our
camp was serenaded by wolves through the night. Traveled 25 miles;
excellent roads, not a hill or stone, crossed no streams.

"21st. Raining, wind southeast. Left camp at 6 o'clock; traveled 12 miles,
camped at 11 o'clock A. M. Grass tolerably good near the river. The river
valley is growing narrower; ranges of high hills on each side of us. It
has cleared up, not much rain; grass is much better. No wood, not a shrub;
river water. Roads unequalled; very level and as smooth as your payement.
Limestone soil as it has been the whole journey; quality good, somewhat
sandy. Fine tobacco country, but the weed has never grown here sown by the
hand of man. It may exist in a state of nature. Traveled 12 miles making
the day's journey 24 miles. Camped on the river; thundering and lightning
but little rain. Through the night we had quite an excitement from a party
of Pawnee Indians whooping and hallowing on the opposite side of the river
and fording the river. I stood watch until 12 o'clock but they did not
trouble us.

"22d. All safe this morning. Our mules were not disturbed. Left camp at 9
o'clock in excellent health such as men enjoy no other place off the
plains. Clear, beautiful day for traveling. We are now about 12 miles from
the junction of the north and south forks which make the main stream of
Platt River. Our last camp shows the vast number of buffalo that frequent
this country. The valley looks like a barnyard for thousands of acres.
They will not be driven from here for many years by settlers; this is not
adapted to the wants and comforts of man. The valley and river is here
only 5 miles wide and is diminishing rapidly. We left our noon camp at 2
o'clock passing 12 hours for our mules without water. We had plenty in our
canteens for ourselves. Only 12 miles from south fork of the Platt River
on the south side. Not a stream of water on the road, not a shrub. We saw
many dead buffalo the emigrants had shot for sport. It is wrong. Enough
are killed on the plains to feed the emigration and left to rot or to be
eaten by wolves. Camped at dusk on a fine creek; good grass.

"23d. Camp rose at 3 o'clock, restaked our mules in fine grass, gave them
1 quart of corn each and curried them; took a hearty breakfast, left camp
at 7 o'clock. Beautiful day. Excellent roads, grass poor, no timber, poor
water. Through the day camped on the river bank; fine grass. Traveled 25
miles.

"24th. Beautiful day; the water is tolerably good, the grass very good.
Have concluded to remain in camp to-day and night, rest our mules and let
them fill themselves with grass. Last night my watch came on at 2 o'clock;
did not go to bed since. The guard duty is well attended to in our camp,
as it should be.

"Have been very busy all day. Persons who have never traveled on the
plains little know how few spare moments he has to spare if he does his
duty. We keep ourselves clean by frequent bathing and this pertains
greatly to good health. We have much washing of clothes to do in order to
keep ourselves tidily dressed. We do not shave. In the morning I shall
leave camp early and try to make a good day's journey. I do not know that
I can write you after leaving Fort Laramie until I reach California, which
will be about the first of September. It may take 60 days for a letter to
reach you from California, which will make it first November. Please give
my respects to Uncle William, and tell him I will write him a long letter
when I reach California, giving him a true and correct account of the
journey, a description of country which I passed over, etc. Kiss my
darling son and daughter for their father."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The children of John Jackson, II, and Elizabeth Seaman are an important
juncture in the relationships of the Hempstead families. The information
is often confusing and contradictory among the various but limited sources
available to me. The two databases that are most reliable, but not in
agreement are those of Dr. Carolyn M. Seaman and Jim Rubins. I am going
to enter this note in each of the children's entries and then point out
the variation in data where it occurs. I will also give my reason for my
choice as to what the correct information might be. Jim shows 1743 as the
date of death, while Carolyn has 1744. I entered between 1743 and 1744.
Both have the same date of birth.

Samuel Clowes enters a Caveat, in behalf of Wright Frost, Jacob Frost, and
Joseph Frost, brothers of Daniel Frost, against proving this will. May
11,1751.

William Lawrence,practitioner in Physicks and Surgery, maketh oath, that
he had often been called to attend, and administer medicine to Daniel
Frost, late of Oyster Bay, deceased, and did attend him in a lingering
distemper, and that he was much disturbed in head, memory, and
understanding. That about the latter part of March last, he was desired
to be a witness of his will, and went to his house with that intent. That
Charles Weeks and some others were in the room. That the will was
produced, and the said Daniel Frost, who this deponent says could write
pretty well, made two scribbles upon the paper, but was not at the time of
sound memory or understanding, and very inclinable to a lethargy, of which
he dyed about a month after . And that he is clearly of the opinion, that
the said Daniel Frost was not capable of making a will, and he therefore
refused to be a witness thereof. Sworn May 6,1751.

Daniel Underhill, being a known Quaker, affirmed, that at the time he was
desired to be a witness to the will of Daniel Frost, dated March 28 last,
he did after much hesitation, put his name to the same. But was very
doubtful in himself concerning the same. And upon the whole, he does not
believe that the said Daniel Frost was of sound mind and memory.

Charles Weeks deposes, that he was desired to be a witness to the said
will, and that Doctor Lawrence and others were present. And that said
Daniel Frost did make some marks, against the seal. And that the Doctor
refused to be a witness, because he thought he was not in his right mind,
and this deponent suspected the same. And that the executing of the will
was deferred till the next day, and then the testator did execute it with
the other witness. But that in his opinion the testator was not otherwise
in respect to mind and memory, than he was the day before. Probate was not
allowed, and Wright Frost, Jacob Frost, and Daniel Underhill, were
appointed administrators, and executed a bond on a printed form. May

Daniel W. Frost went to Chili in the early part of the last century and
was a merchant trading considerably with China. His will, filed in New
York City in 1827, in both Spanish and English, is a unique one, owing to
the fact he was of Quaker inheritance.
His son Daniel became quite prominent in Chilian politics, and was sent
abroad on important diplomatic missions, and was a member of Congress in
Chili and a great Radical.
Extracts from a letter written by Daniel Wright Frost, to his mother,
Sarah Carpenter, of Peekskill, N. Y., dated April 5, 1807, and written on
board the ship Maryland, then lying off Saint Joseph, on the Point of the
peninsula of California and bound for China. He was the ship's surgeon at
that time, and also at as early a date as Sept. 1, 1805.
"By the kindness of a friend I have an opportunity to write to you across
the continent by the way of Mexico and Vera Cruse.
"The first time I wrote you from the coast of Chile. Nineteen long months
has now elapsed since I left my native country and then before this time I
expected to have been back again, but our voyage will undoubtedly be much
longer than we expected but I am in hopes the most tedius part of it is
now nearly finished as we calculate to leave this coast for China in about
a month.
"You need not give yourself any uneasiness, my dear mother, about my
return, as we consider our greatest danger now over. The next part of the
voyage is a plain and pleasant navigation in a latitude where gales seldom
blow and where but few rocks or Isles impede our course.
"You need not expect me home until March or April of 1808, when I hope to
find you, my dear mother, and all my friends in good health.
"You will remember me to my stepfather and family and my dear sisters,
their husbands and children in particular, and likewise to all inquiring
friends. I enjoy good health and live upon terms of friendship with all
the officers and people on board. In my capacity as surgeon I have been
rather fortunate than otherwise, for by the help of God I have preserved
the lives of our ship's company so far and it will be the height of my
pride to bring them all home alive and well. In haste, my dear mother,

"Your affectionate son,
"DANIEL W. FROST."
Just when Daniel decided to live in Chile has not been ascertained, but
Sept. 1, 1805, he was a surgeon on the ship Maryland, for an invoice of
china consigned to him by Geo. New-hold of New York, is still in
existence, also an invoice of goods, consigned to him Sept. 3, 1803, in
care of Jonathan Perry, Master of the ship Maryland.

In a letter written by his nephew, Samuel Frost Haviland (who had gone to
Chile also), he says his uncle Daniel was taken ill in October and died
Dec. 13, 1826, leaving a widow and four small children. The letter was
dated March 4, 1827.

In another letter Samuel Frost Haviland, under date of May 14, 1825, says
Daniel Frost has a son and daughter.

The family still have (1910) some curiosities Daniel brought from China,
such as silk embroideries, shawls, cut crystals, and silver articles.
After he gave up sea travelling he settled down in Sarena, Chile, and
founded a bank, which was the first in that country. He sent for several
of his nephews, one returned and one died there. Another one, Samuel Frost
Haviland, has many descendants still living in Chile.

the east half of lot thirteen in the first concession of Hillier, at what
is now known as Hubbsville. This son married Phoebe Bull, a daughter of
the old pioneer, Josiah Bull, and had a daughter Matura who married
Stephen Haight and settled in Norwich. William Hubbs eventually joined
his daughter at Norwich. Robert Hubbs worked for Corey Spencer on the

David Frost was a blacksmith, probably learning his trade from his
step-father, Thomas Thorne. The shop was on the Croton River, at Carmel,
N. Y., and was the neighborhood headquarters. Enoch Crosby, the spy of the
Revolutionary army in this territory and the supposed original of Harvey
Birch in Cooper's "The Spy," often visited the place, but no allusion was
ever made to his vocation, since both parties were represented there.
David had for a partner Dr. Belden. All tools of every description were
then made by hand and mostly in blacksmith shops. He used to say that it
was easier to make a good ax than a perfect horse shoe nail. Jacob, the
youngest son of David, recalled well when the central shaft of the water
wheel was brought down from the woods. A string of neighboring ox teams
was made up and ox chains were doubled up and twisted together, but they
did not pull evenly and were snapped, one after the other, and while the
oxen were waiting a chain was extemporized at the several fires of the
shop, of bar iron hooked at the ends, and this held.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
David and Sarah lived most of their lives in Carmel, N. Y., but moved to
Pleasant Valley, N. Y., to spend their last days with their youngest son
Jacob.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
They are buried in the Baptist burial ground at Salt Point, N. Y.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
David's will is on file at Poughkeepsie, dated Dec. 7, 1818, and proven
May 15, 1826. Sarah's will is filed in Carmel, N. Y., and was proves May
6, 1835.

wife, which was proven April 19, 1775.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
He purchased a farm of 168 acres on June 20, 1783, from the confiscated
estate of Roger Morris.

David's farm was in Carmel, N. Y., said to be where the almshouse now is.
He and his wife are buried in the old cemetery opposite the Baptist Church
in that town. His old Bible is in the possession of Frank Townsend of
Brewster, N. Y., and on the fly leaf is written, "David Frost his book.
God give him grace therein to look, And when the bell for him doth tole,
The Lord of Host receive his sole."

In the tax list of Fredericksburg Precinct, 1777, is mentioned Samuel
Washburne, David Frost, David Frost, Jr.

In the mention of highways of Carmel, 1744, there is one to be made from
Shaws, by marked trees to Frost's Mills and thence to Spraggs. Shaw's was
on the north end of Lake Glenida, then known as Shaw's Pond. Frost's Mills
were on the Croton.

In a survey made Oct. 17, 1771, is the following statement: "At Jesse
Smith's farm, now Widow Hall's, on which was laid a heap of stones,
crossed the West branch of the Croton to David Frost's."
