Adam and Anne Mott By Thomas Clapp Cornell

Richard Mott Jr., the youngest son of Adam and Anne Mott, was

born on his father's farm in Mamaroneck, on the 21st of 7th mo., 1804,

went with his parents to the mill house, and there in 1809 commenced

his studies in his sister Sarah's little school. In 1811 the family removed

to Nine Partners, and he was a diligent student in the school

while there. He returned with his parents to Premium Point in the

spring of 1814, at the age of ten years, and gave the year to study in his

sister's school and to a boy's work on the farm. He accompanied them

to Lombardy Street, in 1815, and in the autumn of that year was a

pupil in the Monthly Meeting school in Pearl Street, under his brother-

in-law, Lindley M. Moore, where after a couple of years he became an

assistant teacher. In 1818, when the family lived in Vandewater Street

and he was 14 years old, he commenced business as a clerk for Michael

Merritt & Son, who kept a flour store on the North side of Burling Slip,

three doors South of Front Street.

He married in New York, on the I2th of 11th month, 1828, Elizabeth M.

Smith, born in New Bedford, Mass., 12th of 2d month, 1804, died of

consumption, at Mackinaw, on Lake Huron, Mich., whither she had

a little more than half of her fifty-second year. She was a

daughter of Elihu and Mary (Slocum) Smith, of New Bedford.
