Charles Craven's History of Mattituck: 268 [transcription does not include Jessedoes name as the father].
1. Original record at Ancestry.com>U.S. Presbyterian Church Records 1701-1970>New York>Mattituck>Mattituck Presbyterian Church>Session, Register, Baptisms, Marriages, Deaths>1764-1809>image 27/157.
Biographical Text
<h5>` Negro servant to Captn Peter Halliock <br />"[Baptism] Tabitha Negro Child Daughter to Dorcas ^ by Jessedoes."</h5>
Biographical Notes
Tabitha's baptism entry includes information added at a later time, causing confusion over her family assignment. The entry identified her mother as Dorcas, enslaved by Peter Halliock (inserted); her father as Jessedoes [probably Jesebaum].
Dorcas, enslaved by Peter Hallock bore children by her husband, Pomp, enslaved by John Corwin. See #470 and #471.
Jesebaum, enslaved by Widow Hutchinson, fathered children with a woman named Dorcas, but her enslaver was never identified by name in the records. See #1706.
More information is needed before assigning Tabitha to Pomp and Dorcas's family or Jesebaum and Dorcas's family.

Unique Person Identifier
A Unique Person Identifier (UPI) is a string of numbers and digits that help trace an individual through time and space. Many enslaved and indentured people did not have last names; a UPI helps one distinguish between individuals that have the same first name. Additionally, if a person is mentioned in multiple documents, a UPI helps link said person to the various instances in which he or she is mentioned.

Unique Person Identifier
A Unique Person Identifier (UPI) is a string of numbers and digits that help trace an individual through time and space. Many enslaved and indentured people did not have last names; a UPI helps one distinguish between individuals that have the same first name. Additionally, if a person is mentioned in multiple documents, a UPI helps link said person to the various instances in which he or she is mentioned.

Ira Tuthill Obituary: Long Island Traveler, June 9, 1873.
Biographical Notes
She was called "Blind Betty" later in life and died ca. 1820 at age 90.
Biographical Text
Reverend Whitaker described Betty as "a blind slave of Joshua Tuthill, the great grandfather of the present Deacon, Ira Tuthill...Not only mentally and spiritually, but also physically was she a superior woman, for her weight was about three hundred pounds. During the forty years she lived in her blindness after she became fifty years of age—for she died fifty years ago at the age of ninety—the scene of her daily labor, and of her Christian culture and training, was chiefly in the kitchen of Deacon Tuthill's parents." [Excerpt from obituary of Elymas Reeve written by Dr. Epher Whitaker, April 18, 1870; Suffolk Times clipping in the Whitaker Collection, Southold Free Library.]

Abraham Mulford Jr.
Birth Date
1780, calculated by reported age (30 years) at death.
Death Date
October 13, 1810
Source/s
J.W. Case, "Keder and His Family," Long Island Traveler, January 23, 1879.
Original record at Ancestry.com>U.S. Presbyterian Church Records 1701-1970>New York>Southold>First Presbyterian Church>Baptisms, Marriages, Deaths>1749-1832>image 251/340 [death]. Also found in Salmon Records: 74.
Newsday (New York), December 22, 1992, page 50. A similar story appeared in The Suffolk Times, December 23, 1993, page 15.
Biographical Notes
She was the second daughter of Keder (#1638) and his first wife, Chloe (#377). Bloom “went out to service” in Southold and died there unmarried.
Two oral traditions may provide some context to Bloom’s short life. Both come from descendants of Alvah and Bethia (Horton) Mulford and share the following thread: One Sunday morning, a British vessel anchored in the Long Island Sound near the home of Abraham Mulford Jr. With muskets in hand, the townspeople raced to the site ready to stop the intruders. Instead of British soldiers, the people found an agitated, mulatto child on the rocky shore who appeared deaf and mute. She was identified by one word—Bloom. Abraham Mulford Jr. took pity on the child and brought her to live in his household until her death.
Bloom made a lasting impression on those who knew her as well as future Southold residents. She was buried in Southold’s First Presbyterian Church Burying Ground. Someone paid to mark her grave with a chiseled stone. It was this marker that caught the eye of Mrs. Eleanor Morris Lingo as a high school student. After moving away from Southold, Mrs. Lingo never forgot Bloom and started laying a Christmas wreath (anonymously) on the gravesite in 1954. This ritual continued until well into the 1990s when Mrs. Lingo identified herself to reporters.
Clues from these oral traditions should be investigated, particularly records created by the Mulford family. It’s possible that Bloom’s mother, Chloe, was enslaved by the Mulford family which meant that her children would belong to them. If so, it wasn’t pity that moved Abraham Mulford, but a legal obligation.
NOTE: Jonathan Horton manumitted a woman named Bloom (age 25) in April 1805 (Southold Town Records, Volume 3 (Liber D): 50–51). This woman will be identified separately (see #1662) until further evidence is uncovered to clarify what if any relationship they may have had.

Unique Person Identifier
A Unique Person Identifier (UPI) is a string of numbers and digits that help trace an individual through time and space. Many enslaved and indentured people did not have last names; a UPI helps one distinguish between individuals that have the same first name. Additionally, if a person is mentioned in multiple documents, a UPI helps link said person to the various instances in which he or she is mentioned.

An account of the resource
In 1724, the Mulford was deeded to Samuel Mulford’s son, Matthew, who later owned “Home, Sweet Home.” Capt. Matthew Mulford can be found in records from the 18th century owning numerous enslaved persons. He baptized enslaved persons named Shafar/Sharper in March of 1723, Rose in May 1724, Joe in January 1764, and an unnamed “negro man” in September 1772. The town records show his “negro woman” dying in 1771, possibly Rose, and an enslaved woman named Abigail dying in 1773. In 1753 he bought a man named <a href="http://plainsightproject.org/items/show/729">Prince</a> from Seth Parsons for 68 pounds and later records show Prince baptizing his son Depth in 1779 and an unnamed son in 1780, both after the death of Matthew Mulford, but during the time that his grandson, also named Matthew Mulford, owned the home, having obtained the house during the Revolution. The East Hampton Town Records Volume III records 6 shillings being given “to Mulford’s negro two days’ work” in 1733. It is said that the enslaved people lived in the attic of the house.

Mulford Farm House
Description
An account of the resource
Records give John Osborne as the owner of the land in 1655. In 1676 it was the sold to Josiah Hobart, high sheriff of Suffolk County, who built the house that stands today. Capt. Josiah Hobart came to East Hampton in the third wave of settlers, found in records by 1650. He was the Sheriff of Suffolk County. In Josiah Hobart’s 1707 will he left his “negro girl <strong>Flora</strong>” to his wife, Anne. <br /><br />According to Jeannette Rattray in "Up and Down Main Street," “Experts from Williamsburg, Virginia and the Brooklyn Museum have examined the house and agreed that it is, at least in part, one of the oldest on Long Island.”<br /><br />The house passed into the Mulford family in an exchange with Samuel Mulford on April 16, 1698. On November 22, 1715, when Samuel Mulford owned the Mulford house, a meeting was held to discuss building the second town church. Supposedly, according to the original Brooklyn Daily Eagle article in 1895, a committee member was missing and Mulford sent an enslaved girl to find him. A terrible storm arrived and the girl was lost in the snow drifts. She was found the next day and the committee decided that her death was a sign from the divine, telling them that the place where she was found should be the site for the new church. Today, Guild Hall stands on the second church’s location, marked by a sign. No one has been able to confirm the legitimacy of this story. <br /><br />In 1724, the Mulford was deeded to Samuel Mulford’s son, Matthew, who later owned “Home, Sweet Home.” Capt. Matthew Mulford can be found in records from the 18th century owning numerous enslaved persons. He baptized enslaved persons named <strong>Shafar</strong> and <strong>Sharper</strong> in March of 1723, Rose in May 1724, Joe in January 1764, and an unnamed “<strong>negro man</strong>” in September 1772. The town records show his “negro woman” dying in 1771, possibly <strong>Rose</strong>, and an enslaved woman named <strong>Abigail</strong> dying in 1773. In 1753 he bought a man named <strong>Prince</strong> from Seth Parsons for 68 pounds and later records show Prince baptizing his son <strong>Depth</strong> in 1779 and an unnamed <strong>son</strong> in 1780, both after the death of Matthew Mulford, but during the time that his grandson, also named Matthew Mulford, owned the home, having obtained the house during the Revolution. The East Hampton Town Records Volume III records 6 shillings being given “to Mulford’s negro two days’ work” in 1733, unclear whether it is Mulford being paid or the enslaved person.

Description
An account of the resource
1751 the house was transferred to Matthew Mulford, son of Samuel Mulford, from John Dayton (grandson) and Robert Dayton’s wife, who owned the house after Robert Dayton left it to them in his will. <br /><br />John Dayton left his wife a “negro girl” in his will (died no longer living in the house). London (also spelled Lunnon) Dayton was enslaved by John Dayton (either John Dayton 4 or 5) and freed by 1799. There are many records showing London owning land, often deeded from Daytons. <br /><br />Aaron Isaacs Jr. was the first jewish person (later converted to christianity) in East Hampton, married Matthew Mulford’s daughter Esther and presumably lived in the home, sweet home house as we see his daughter Elizabeth living and dying there. He was seen buying may shoes for his slaves Files, an unnamed “negro child,” an unnamed “negro girl,” nab, and additionally recorded an unnamed “negro child” dying 5/11/1768 (maybe the same child).
