Generation: 1

  1. 1.  Catherine Smith was born Abt 1620.

    Notes:

    She was also known as Catharina or Katrina. Catherine was the daughter of Richard Smith (of Smith's Castle, Wickford), who also owned land on Long Island under sovereignty of the Dutch West India Company. Smith established trading posts near the Pequot Path (Post Road) in Kingstowne, and also in New Amsterdam (New York). He frequently traveled back and forth between the two locations, and established strong personal and business relationships with individuals at New Amsterdam. Undoubtedly that explains how his daughter met and married Gysbert Updyke, an officer of the Dutch West India Company.

    Excerpts from Charles Wilson Opdyke's The Op Dyck Genealogy, pages 85-93:
    "Lodowick Updike was baptised June 10, 1646, in the Dutch Church of New Amsterdam, in the presence of his father Gysbert Opdyck, and of his grandfather Richard Smith and the fiscal de La Montagne who acted as sponsors. Three years of his infancy were probably passed at Fort Hope (Hartford) where his father was commander. His childhood and youth were spent at New Amsterdam in his father's house on Stone Street or in the house "next the City Hall," and on Long Island about Hempstead and Newtown. The lad must have often accompanied his Smith grandfather and uncle in their sloop to the trading-house at Narragansett. He was eighteen years of age when the English seized the New Netherlands, and New Amsterdam became New York.
    "At the age of 22, Lodowick is found at Wickford joining others in a petition to Connecticut, for the protection of that government. There had been much conflict as to the jurisdiction over the Narragansett country. In 1665 the King

The birth year is an approximation based on the date of his first marriage and the sequencing of his siblings.

    "Daniel was the son of Lodowick Updike and Abigail Newton of Kingstown, Rhode Island. He was married three times: (1) at Trinity Church in Newport, RI on 20 Dec 1716 to Sarah ARNOLD, b. 3 Nov 1698, d. 26 Jan 1718, the daughter of Benedict Arnold and Sarah Mumford. Sarah died in childbirth with their infant born and died in 1718. Sarah and infant are buried in the Governor Arnold Lot on Pelham Street in Newport. Daniel m. (2) 21 Dec 1722 Anstis Jenkins, b. 28 Oct 1702, d. c. 1744, the daughter of Richard Jenkins and Mary Wilkins; and (3) 14 March 1745 Mary (GODFREY) Wanton, the widow of William Wanton, and daughter of John Godfrey and Elizabeth Carr. Daniel had four children with his second wife, only the older two of whom survived childhood.

    "Daniel was the Attorney General of the Rhode Island colony from 1722 to 1732, and again from 1743 to 1757. He studied under tutors 'at his father's house,' including the subjects of Greek, Latin, and French. As a young man he went to the Barbados, after which he studied law, soon moving to Newport. In 1729 he and three others were appointed to a committee to revise and print the laws of the colony.

    "In 1730 he was a Lieutenant Colonel of the local militia, and that same year he was baptized in the Pettasquanscutt River by Rev. James McSparren. Also in 1730, he was one of the founders of the literary institution in Newport, later known as the Redwood Library.

    "In 1732 he was nominated for Governor to oppose William Wanton, but lost. From 1741 to 1743 he was an attorney for Kings County (now Washington County), and during the same time he was appointed on a committee to revise the laws.

    "His obituary, appearing in the records of St. Paul's Episcopal Church, under the rectorship of Dr. James McSparren, reads: 'Colonel Updike of North Kingstown, Attorney General of the Colony, died on Saturday the 15th of May, 1757, about noon, and after a funeral discourse was preached by Dr. McSparren, was interred in the burial ground of the family, beside the remains of his father and second wife Anstis Jenkins, mother of Lodowick and Mary Updike his surviving children.' "
