miles distant.
William Hencher
born at Brook field,
Massachusetts, served as a soldier
during the Revolution, was a partisan of Shay in the State rebellion, a pioneer of
Monroe County, and the father of a family of pioneers.
He was married on May
9, 1771, to Mehitable Moffet, the grand-daughter of a Scottish clergyman. The
family resided for seventeen years upon a farm in Brookfield, Worcester county,
Massachusetts, and then removed to Gates, then a portion of Ontario county.
The first settlement was made at Newtown Point, where a year was passed.
He
then moved up the Chemung river, and, joined by his family, located on
Big
flats.
He contracted for one-eighth of the second township, short
range west of
the Genesee, at the mouth of the river.
A payment of seventy dollars had been
made when Jackson, the supposed owner, was found to have no claim. A
purchase
was now made from
Joseph Annin of six hundred and twenty-seven acres, at two
shillings and sixpence per acre, and in August, 1791, Mr. Hencher, accompanied
by his only son William, then a youth of eleven, came to his land, and, selecting
a site, erected a hut on the west side of the river.

enlightened life. It is noted of William Hencher that he wrote of others" and
thereby contributed to pioneer history, but of himself said nothing. From the
incidents of his life we idealize a man determined and
active, one who shrank
from no danger when found in the
pathway of duty or self-interest, and who with
ready appreciation embraced opportunity to advantage his family, and rejoiced in
having secured for each a competence before his departure. In his renewed
effort to secure a farm when the first had
proved a failure, his voyages across the
lake with produce and for fish to obtain means of
payment, and his rapid im
provement of his lands in the face of the dreaded fevers which brooded alono- the
coast, we have a type of a genuine pioneer, one worthy of honorable mention in
history, one to whom the present and future owe a debt for self-denial and signal
service.
