Story

My Mother's tribute to her brother-in-law Fred Sargent, upon his death....

In 1939 I had met Fred Sargent first and then met Dick Sargent just before they left to bike around Europe. On the boat going over Dick met Janet first as she was heading for a summer on the Experiment. And then Fred met her. In 1941 Dick and I married in March, Fred and Janet in August, and our lives and families have been intertwined ever since. Dear Fred was planning to be a doctor and was so loving and caring about people that I felt he had chosen well. His sense of humor and complete lack of bigotry or snobbery are qualities I shall never forget. He was a wonderful brother-in-law, and true friend. I loved him very much.

Biography

  • Richard Collier Sargent, Jr, was born on 5 April 1914 in New Haven, Connecticut.1
  • He was usually called Dick.1
  • Richard lived in 326 Willow St, New Haven, Connecticut, The house where my father lived from his birth until he was about 18. They lived on the 2nd and 3rd floor; because the house had it's long side to the street they had a big back yard. My grandparents remained friendly with the downstairs neighbors, the Daggets, for the rest of their life. Even though they lived in a 2-family they still had maids....1

    FamReunion_Sargent_JohnInGreen
  • In 1931 Dick and his brother, along with their parents and their mother's aunt Alice Kingsbury vacationed in Bermuda. (He promised his daughters a similar trip when they all had the same school vacation - which occurred in March 1960. It was a wonderful spring break trip.)1
  • He attended school at Phillips Academy, Andover, Massachusetts, for two years.1
  • He graduated from The Taft School, Watertown, Connecticut, in 1933.1
  • He attended school at Bates College, Lewiston, Maine, for a year and a half.1,3
  • A family story says that he first stopped off at Bowdoin College down the road, but realized that wasn't his school, so he traveled up to Bates.....He lived at 7 Vale St (as discovered on the flyleaf of a book he owned).1,3
  • He was employed by Bridgeport Brass Company, Bridgeport, Connecticut, about 1940 as a foreman in the annealing department. He worked there for 24 years, until he retired in 1964.1

  • When my father started dating my mother and they were getting 'serious' he had been selling insurance to members of his family.This was considered a responsible job by his family, as he was just 'starting out' However, my mother didn't think that qualified as a real job at all. So he went to a company he knew about - the Bridgeport Brass Company - his grandfather was president of the company at the time. However, I do not believe he (FJ Kingsbury) knew that his grandson had applied to work there. The first day of work he brought out his lunchbox at noon, with the other employees in the factory, and when he opened it he saw all the sandwiches had their crusts cut off. (I think they were cucumber sandwiches). The lunch had been made by the cook, and this was her custom. Needless to say he put away the lunch and went hungry that day!

    After a couple of weeks his grandfather found out his grandson was working on the shop floor, called him to his office and offered him a management position. But my father wanted to stay where he was, and so turned down an opportunity to advance in the manufacturing world.

    A year or so later America entered WW II. The Brass company employees were given a deferment because they were doing 'war work'. My father was one of the first to receive this deferment. There were photos, interviews, because he was among the first. After a few months the process became routine and it no longer merited special attention.1

  • He appeared on the 1940 US Federal Census of Ridge Road, North Haven, New Haven County, Connecticut, enumerated on 4 May 1940, in the household of his parents Richard Collier Sargent and Ruth.4
  • On 16 October 1940 my father registered for the draft. At that time he wasn't married, and lived with his parents. That address was crossed out & his new married address was typed in - at some later date.5

The first rope tow in America was at Woodstock Vermont in 1934 - and my father went skiing there shortly after, and never stopped.1
  • He died on 17 April 1985 in Hartland, Vermont, at age 71.

Story

My father remembers as a young boy going for Christmas to Waterbury where his grandparents and aunts lived. They had a beautiful Christmas tree in the parlor, decorated with real candles. On Christmas Eve the candles would be lit and they would admire them for about an hour - then they were all extinguished.

Obit Notice

An obituary was published on 9 February 1944

George Lewis Sargent (Uncle Lewis to most of us) died after a long illness early in the morning of Saturday, February 5th, in his 82nd year. He was the seventh of the twelve children of Joseph Bradford Sargent and Elizabeth Collier Lewis, and was born in New Britain, Conn., on July 26, 1862. Before the next child was born the family moved to New Haven.

With his brothers Ned and Joe he attended Hopkins Grammar School. All three boys were withdrawn from the school when Mr Cushing, the rector, threatened expulsion of Ned for something the boy had not done. (Too late Mr Cushing learned that he had been misinformed and apologized to Ned.) The boys completed their college preparatory work at Hillhouse High School, Joe and Lewis entering the Scheffield Scientific School of Yale a year after Ned in the Class of 1881. Joe did not complete the course (Yale later awarding him the degree) but Lewis graduated before his 19th birthday and then took the two-year course in the Yale Law School as further preparation for the family business.

Lawn tennis was a relatively new game in this country in 1883 when he becae the Yale champion and represented Yale in singles in the first intercollegiate tennis tournament at Hartford. (A Harvard man won it, a round robin affair.) Yale's representatives in doubles were Walter Camp and Henry W Slocum, later national singles champion.

In 1883 he entered the employ of Sargent & Company, was treasurer for thirty years from 1887, vice president for ten years and president for the last year of his active participation in the business, continuing however as a director till 1940.

He was married on April 28, 1886 to Alice Bessie Forbes, daughter of Charles Forbes of New York, who died in 1902. They had eight children. He was married on October 24, 1911, to Margaret Berrien Motte, the widow of his brother Russell and the daughter of Ellis Loring Motte of Boston, who survives him. Eleanor Strong, his oldest child, died in childhood. The other seven are Richard Collier, Sydney Forbes, Dorothy (Mrs Henry J Wiser), Hilda (Mrs Roswell G Ham), Mary Denny (Mrs William H McCance), Howard Lewis and Charles Forbes. Barbara Louise (Mrs Ludwig K Morrehead) is a niece and step-daughter. Seventeen grandchildren and three great grandchildren also survive him

Uncle Lewis Sargent, who died on February 5th, was endowed with a very keen sense of humor. He was a good player of games and sports. His friends called him a lucky player, but his ability to think clearly in the stress of competition made him a good 'match' player. He played his best in matches and never seemed to get rattled.

He and Uncle Bruce Fenn were members of the Friday Night Club of a social-literary nature which met in the homes of its members.

For many years he resided at 251 Church Street, New Haven, next door to the Henry B's at 247. When then brothers decided to have a telephone they shared an instrument, which was placed at the GL's. The obvious convenience for the latter when they wanted to make a telephone call was perhaps offset by the necessity of going next door to notify the HB's when one of the latter was wanted to answer a call.

The fence between the two back yards was removed to make one playground for all the children. When one of the brothers was out of town the other was looked to by both families in emergencies. One Sunday when HB was away GL was appealed to get rid of a terrible odor at 247. GB found the problem was a bit beyond him and after considerable effort got hold of a plumber, who solved the difficulty by removing a deceased feline from the cold air pipe to the furnace.

The IGI says New Haven, CT. 1860 census -CA, 1870 census-CT (wrong - that's where Susan Silliman's children were born), 1880 census-CA, 1900 census-CA, 1910 census children-CA, 1920 census children-MA (wrong - that is their step-mother) 1930 census children-NY. She was born in California - her sisters and brothers were born there. I have a copy of her sister's birth certificate.

Story

The following excerpt from Sargentrivia, the family newspaper, illustrates the kind of activity women would participate in:

Ruth Kingsbury Sargent, Jane Cater Sargent, Elizabeth Collier Sargent, Elizabeth Day Sargent, Laura Rice Deming and Agnes W.B. Sargent were joint hostesses at Our Society meeting on April 21st at Ruth's home, Ridge Road, North Haven, Conn. Our Society is an ancient charitable sewing club founded in 1831 or 1832 to provide women's and children's garments for the needy. The membership is now limited to 130, with preference given to daughters of members in the filling of vacancies. Because of its size only 3 or 4 meetings (afternoon and supper) are held each year. To-day the work is concentrated on diapers. In the early days some gentlemen are known to have attended the meetings as guests, but for more than a hundred years all males have been excluded. Perhaps their presence was found a hindrance to the production of garments.

Story

Ed worked somewhere (I'm not sure where) - he was a foreman. A machine was broken that was like a wringer. It flattened out rubber. He went to fix the machine, and it started up, and his hand got caught in the machine. Only his body stopped it; it crushed his whole arm. He was in the hospital with his fingers held up, and all was ok, but he would never have use of his arm; however, infection started in, and they had no penecillin, so they had to amputate the arm. This happened in 1929. When he was ready to go back to work his company fired him because they said he couldn't work as well because he had only one arm.(Phyllis, his edlest daughter, says that isn't true, that he was in management, and he really didn't need his arm) He became a purchasing agent for Mossberg's. He worked there until 3 weeks before he died. When he took the job he (his family) had only $100 left. (I think his accident occurred around 1929.
