The following is from the Long Island Historical Society's, Records, Flushing, L.I., by Frank Haviland, 1905: and from "Dutchess County Burial Grounds". Anthony Badgley's birth date is not known: the Society of Friends Records gives his death as February 3/1732 (old calendar). His father was known as Anthony Senior of Flushing. He had a sister Phebe, who married at Flushing on September 15/1715, Peter Wilcosts, (Rev. Poyer's records). His will is given in L.I. Historical Society's records, Vol 3 pp 54-5, dated March 26/1732, proved April 8/1737, He left to his daughter Sarah, his negro wench Ginney, and all his deceased wife's woollen clothes and apparel. To Elizabeth, all his wife's linen clothes and apparel. Then "my executors to sell all my mills, goods etc, and from the proceeds to pay Sarah #50, Elizabeth #100, and the rest to my sons Anthony, Samuel and Stephen. Witness Jacob Haight. Anthony married on November 12/1719, Phebe Haight born before 1701, died January 20/1751, daughter of Samuel and Sarah (Noble) Hoyt or Haight of Flushing, see subject 150. The Hoyt genealogy confirms this marriage but does not give the names of their children. Most of the children moved to Dutchess County, N.Y., and were buried in Pleasant Valley Cemetery. After Anthony's death, Phebe married, 2nd, in November 1939, Jonathan Holmes of Plymouth, Mass. Anthony and Phebe were Quakers. Issue: (from his will). 1. Sarah Badgley.
