HUBBARD
Noadiah Hubbard, immigrant ancestor, came to America with his two brothers in the eighteenth century, and settled in Sheffield, Massachusetts. He fought in the French and Indian wars on the English side and also in the revolution, together with two of his sons. His service in the revolution was a follows: Captain Downing's company, Colonel Ashley's regiment for three years; Captain Moses Ashley's company, Colonel Joseph Vose's regiment, at Peekskill, in 1779; in Captain Hancock's company, Colonel Joseph Vose's regiment from Jan. 1 to Sept. 26, 1780. John Hubbard, also from Sheffield, and a brother, was a minute-man in 1775, and a lieutenant in Captain William Bacon's company. He was evidently aged at this time, as there is no service recorded for him after Oct. 6, 1775. One of the sons of Noadiah Hubbard was taken prisoner by the English and held as a war prisoner on the old prison ship. Have these webpages helped you?

When the latter disposed of the farm, and removed to the village of Copenhagen, the son, George S., accompanied him, and was engaged with him for several years in the truck and market gardening business. While a resident of Copenhagen, Mr. Hubbard was police constable. In 1900 he was appointed under sheriff of Lewis county by George Curtiss, and held the position for three years. At that same time he removed to Lowville, and was chief of police of the latter town for three years. In the fall of 1905, at the Lewis county Republican convention, he received the unanimous nomination of the convention for sheriff of Lewis county, the only candidate who ever recieved that honor. He was elected by a plurality of about one thousand , though a Democrat had been elected by a small majority three years before. He was a competent and painstaking officer and fulfilled the duties of the office to the general satisfaction of all concerned. He received many compliments from judges holding courts in the county, for the order which he maintained in the courtroom during trials. While he was keeper of the county jail, cleanliness and order were features of that institution. In preserving peace and in searching for and arresting criminals, Mr. Hubbard was very successful, and few of the latter succeeded in evading arrest during his term. In politics he was, as has been stated, a Republican. He is a member of Orient Lodge, No. 238, Free and Accepted Masons, Copenhagen; Lowville Lodge No. 759, Independent Order of Odd Fellows.
He is a lover of music, and a member of the Lowville Band. For seven years he was trustee of Copenhagen village. After his term of office as sheriff expired, he purchased an elegant home in Lowville, where he and his family lives. [this was pub in 1910].

Green, was born Jan. 4, 1830, at Rochester, New York, son of David and Elizabeth (Hatch) Green. Her mother, Delia (Woodard) Green, was born May 19, 1838, at Watertown, daughter of James and Sally (Streeter) Woodard.

{TRANSCRIBER'S NOTE: This is not the only Hubbard lineage that migrated into the northern part of New York State. I personally descend from a line from immigrant ancestor, George Hubbard b. 1601 who m. Elizabeth Watts, that tracks down, Daniel, Daniel, Daniel, Timothy, TIMOTHY (removed from Haddam, CT to Leyden, Lewis county, N.Y.) Coroden, Walter Dewey, then Ella, b. 1853, my gr/grandmother. From TIMOTHY onward, these generations were born and raised in Lewis county, N.Y. How the compiler missed them escapes me.]
