II. CAPT. JAMES EDWIN, son of Hector Youngs Horton and Dency Tuthill, born in Southold, 15 Jan., 1816; married in Mattituck, 10 May, 1848, by Rev. Abraham Luce, to JERUSHA WORTH, daughter of James Worth and Nancy Tooker, and born in Mattituck, 7 Jan., 1820. Children, born in Southold: 1. Theodore Worth, born 7 Oct., 1849. 2. Edwin Willis, born 20 Jan., 1854. Capt. Horton commenced a sea-faring life when about 19 years old, with Capt. Nathaniel Case, in the ship _Triad_. With a crew of about 25 men, they made a voyage of about nine months in the South Atlantic Ocean, in latitude 35 to 40°, and longitude 10 to 20°. The voyage was prosperous and the business paid well. He afterwards made a voyage on the Indian Ocean and South Sea. He followed the business for 13 years, and during that time, he circumnavigated the earth four times. It is a remarkable fact that, notwithstanding all the hazard and danger of a sea-faring life, they never lost a man by accident or sickness. They were all temperate men, and this had much to do with their immunity from danger, sickness and death. The Captain quaintly remarks that a half gallon demi-john of liquor was not used by the whole crew, as a beverage, during any one of their voyages. During the time he followed the sea he visited the Sandwich Islands, the Society Isles, and also New Zealand. On the island of Owyhee he saw the place where Capt. Cook was killed by the natives. The last voyage was in 1846-47 and 48, and during this voyage the Captain had command of the ship. He took but two gallons of spirits with him on that voyage, and part of that he brought back with him. The Captain is beautifully situated at Peconic, L. I.--has a beautiful farm, which he knows how to keep in good order, and his house, among the best in the township of Southold, is admirably kept by his amiable and accomplished lady, and nearly every room in it is richly ornamented with frames and cases of rare, costly and beautiful sea-shells, most tastefully arranged, and all done by the delicate hands of Mrs. Horton herself. Great skill and persevering effort were required to accomplish so much. I. MARY ELIZABETH, daughter of Osborn Horton and Sally Philips (_Col. Benjamin_, _Capt. Barnabas_, _Dea. James_, _Jonathan I._), born at West Hampton, L. I., 17 March, 1813; married 1. 13 Aug., 1833, by Rev. Dr. Carroll, of Brooklyn, N. Y., to SAMUEL DRAPER, son of Pliny Draper, and born in Pompey, N. Y., 26 Oct., 1808--had one son, viz.: Geo. Horton Draper, born 23 March, 1835. Sam'l Draper died in New Orleans, in Aug., 1839. She married 2. in Brooklyn, 25 July, 1849, by the Rev. M. Jacobus, to JOHN LEWIS, son of Benjamin Lewis and Cynthia Merritt, and born in Canterbury, Conn., 25 April, 1800. They have: Osborn Horton Lewis, born in Greenport, L. I., 21 June, 1851.
