Excerpt from James Mott: Of Dutchess County, N. Y. And His Descendants The matter comprised in the following pages has been segregated from a large mass of genealogical material concerning the Motts of New York and New England that has been gathered by the writer during the last fifteen years with the intention of publishing a comprehensive history of the descendants of Adam Mott of Hempstead. With this end in view, in 1899, a brief sketch of the earlier generations of the Long Island family was published by him in pamphlet form, followed by a second, in 1906, somewhat amplified in its scope, both intended to arouse interest in the subject, and to enlist the co-operation of those allied by blood and marriage. To the edition of 1906 the reader is referred for a more extended account of the Hempstead patriarch and his ten sons than it is pertinent to include in this publication. The descendants of two of the younger sons have been indicated in detail by Cornell in his very interesting book, Adam and Anne Mott. The descent in the male lines from another son has been given by the writer in volume xxxvi of the "New York Genealogical and Biographical Record" (1905). And in the September, 1906, number of the "Genealogical Exchange" (Buffalo, N. Y.), may be found a condensed sketch of the Dutchess County branch descended from one of the older sons, that was early established in Nine Partners, and at the close of the Revolutionary War, for political causes, removed to the Canadian line.
