151 Labor in Vain Road, the Henry Bennett House (c. 1680- 1720)

The 284-acre property at 51 Labor in Vain Road was formerly known as the Beloselsky estate and the Labor In Vain Road House. This private extension of Labor in Vain was the Beloselsky private driveway and connects via Fox Creek Rd. to Argilla Road. The oldest part of the house is believed to have been constructed around 1680 by Henry Bennett. The original part of the house is 5 bays wide, one room deep, and 2 1/2 stories high with a rear lean-to. The house was extended by an ell to the left rear c. 1810 and by a full lean-to dormer in the late 19th or early 20th century. A second ell of 2 stories and a screened porch were added to the rear, very likely in conjunction with the use of the building in the 20th century by the Crane family as the Labor-in-Vain Country Club.

First Period features, in the form of an exposed, decorated frame, are seen in the rooms constituting the original part of the house. The longitudinal summer beam, the chimney girt, the front (southeast) corner post, and the chimney posts have inch-wide flat chamfers and lamb’s tongue stops. A chimney post is embellished with a taper stop near the floor.

In the right-hand chamber, all the framing is exposed, with inch-wide flat chamfers and lamb’s tongue stops. Rising braces are exposed in the rear wall of this room, possibly indicating plank frame construction. The 18th-century entrance staircase is embellished with a molded handrail and turned balusters with a Georgian profile. Abbott Lowell Cummings conservatively estimated the construction date as around 1720, within the transitional period between the First Period and Georgian, when frames began to be boxed with beaded boards rather than exposed. From the last quarter of the 17th century until the transitional period, the houses of wealthy men often had beaded frames. The three earliest owners of this house, William Bennett, John Wainwright, and the Smith family, had considerable wealth. No dendrochronology study has been conducted to determine the actual date of construction.

The house retains Second Period trim on the fireplace walls in the right-hand room and left-hand chamber, including paneled cupboard doors in the downstairs room, raised-field paneling, and a bold bolection-molded fireplace surround in the upstairs room. Federal-period trim, including the mantelpiece, is found in the right-hand chamber and the c. 1810 wing to the left.

Henry Bennett

Henry Bennett (c.1629-1707), born in England, was in Ipswich by 1650, when he married Lydia, daughter of John and Judith Perkins, of Ipswich. She died probably before 1672, and he married, second, Mary (Smith) Burr, the widow of John Burr, who was her second husband. Her first husband was Philip Call, whose house still stands on High Street in Ipswich. Her father was Richard Smith of Shropham, Norfolk, England

Lydia Perkins Bennett was the daughter of John and Judith Gator Perkins of Ipswich, and was the mother of most or all of Henry Bennett’s children. The children of John Perkins and his wife Judith Gator included John (who identified himself as “Quartermaster”), Abraham, Jacob, Thomas, Elizabeth Sargent, Anna Bradbury, and Lydia Bennett.

Bennett’s Farm

In 1654, at about age 25, Henry Bennett bought from Jonathan Wade a farm of two hundred acres situated in what is now the southeastern part of Ipswich, bounded by Castle Neck Creek and the lands of Mr. Symonds, Mr. Saltonstall, and the Rev. Nathaniel Rogers. He occupied the farm on Labor in Vain Road for more than forty years. He was a voter in town affairs in 1679, was listed as a Freeman, and had the right of commonage. He obtained land on Hog Island and Plum Island when the town’s common land was divided among the commoners. Henry Bennett was frequently referred to as Farmer Bennet. Although he made many conveyances of
land, from 1672 to 1698, the name of his wife, Lydia, appears on none of his deeds; the first deed signed by his second wife is dated May 14, 1680.

The Loyal Petition of 1666

The year 1660, when Charles II came to the throne, ushered in a threat to the independent existence of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. When the King sent the “Clarendon Commissioners” in 1664 to examine how the Charter was being maintained, the Governor and General Court received them coldly, and in some instances openly defied them. Receiving the news, the King wrote that it was very evident to him, “that those who governed the Colony of Massachusetts believe that His Majesty had no jurisdiction over them…but can not appeal to His Majesty.” In 1666, Henry Bennett was one of 73 signers of the lengthy Ipswich Petition to the general court, disapproving of the action of Massachusetts authorities in opposing the king’s commissioners. They called for “perpetual care to be taken, lest by refusing to attend his Majesty’s orders for clearing pretenses unto right and favour in that particular, we should plunge ourselves into greater disfavour and danger.” The signature of Col. John Appleton headed the list of the Ipswich petitioners, arousing the indignation of the General Court, which ordered Appleton and leading citizens from other petitioning towns to appear for questioning and removed Appleton from his position as a member of the House of Deputies. The Town of Ipswich responded by reinstating Appleton. The town’s leader, Daniel Denison, supported the petition, while Deputy Governor Samuel Symonds, who was Henry Bennett’s neighbor, was aggressive in his opposition. Partisan feelings ran high during this lengthy episode.

William Bennett’s Will

In 1672, Henry Bennett’s brother William, a vintner of Bishopsgate, London, died and left Henry in his will one hundred pounds sterling. The collection of this legacy, through the officiousness of one of his neighbors, caused him considerable trouble. Harlakenden Symonds (son of Samuel Symonds, afterwards Deputy Governor), who appears to have been seeking an occasion to go to England, offered to collect this one hundred pounds for the modest commission of fifty pounds, which offer was of course refused. He then made a second proposal to collect the amount of the legacy for ten pounds, to which Bennet replied that if he employed him, he would give him ten pounds, and if he didn’t, he should be “at his liberty what to give him.”

Despite this slight encouragement, Symonds went to England and began negotiations with the executor of William Bennet’s will, but although he brought his highly respectable friends in Essex up to London to endorse him, he made no progress in the business for lack of proper authority to give a full discharge on payment of the money. He therefore wrote to Bennet for a letter of attorney, which he would not send him unless his father, Samuel Symonds, would become bound for him; this the elder Symonds declined to do.

Harlakenden Symonds, however, remained in England, waiting for the letter of attorney and keeping up the show of agency for Bennet, until he learned that the executor had paid the legatee’s bill of exchange in favor of a merchant in Boston. (*Henry Bennet’s inheritance apparently included a bill of exchange, perhaps an IOU or payment order that directed the payment of part of the inheritance to a merchant in Boston rather than being paid directly to Henry himself.) Soon after his return, Symonds brought a suit against Bennet for damages as well as services in which he was not successful. In his statement, sworn to in court, he says he was in England “for better than fifteen months, and was absent from New-England and the occasions of his family above one year and nine months.”

Indian Boy Lyonel

A suit was brought against Henry Bennett in 1684 by Daniel Epps, who owned the area around Castle Hill, for enticing away and harboring his Indian boy, Lyonel, who had come to Ipswich with his destitute mother and grandmother and camped on Wigwam Hill on Castle Neck. Thomas Franklin Waters’ telling of the story identifies the farm on Labor in Vain as belonging to Henry Bennett: “A young Indian lad was bound out to Mr. Henry Bennett, the owner of the farm east of Argilla. With a little company of Indians, a squaw, whose husband had been slain by hostile Indians near Lake Winnepesaukee, drifted down to Castle Hill, with her two little children and her old mother-in-law. She died not long after, leaving her children to the care of Captain Daniel Epes and his excellent wife. The younger boy, named Lionel after Captain Epes’s younger son, grew up in the family, but when he was a well-grown boy, his uncle Robin, a shiftless Indian who was in debt to Mr. Bennett, stole him away from Captain Epes and indentured him to Mr. Bennett.”

The court determined that the boy had been regularly indentured to Bennet by his grandmother and uncle, who had been living on Epps’s bounty, and had promised to give the boy to him. At the time, they were the last Indian family living in Ipswich. Mr. Epps lost the case and appealed to the general court, but probably did not prosecute the appeal. The indenture of the Indian boy bears the signature of Jacob Perkins, brother to Lydia, having signed as a witness, and Jacob Perkins, Jr. subsequently adding witness that he was present when it was signed.

Children of Henry and Lydia Bennett

Henry and Lydia Bennett had no daughters, but were the parents of: 

• Jacob Bennett (1651 – abt. 1685)
• John Bennett (1655 – 1675) was killed by Indians at Bloody Brook, Sept 18, 1675
• William Bennett Sr. (1657 – bef. 1722)
• Henry Bennett (1664 – 1739) died in Portsmouth. Married, May 20, 1685, Frances, daughter of John and Mary (Smith) Burr. He married, second, Margaret. His children were Mary, b. March 3, 1685-6, Frances, b. Sept. 8, 1694, Margaret, b. March 22, 1697-8, Joanna, b. Oct 7, 1701, Lucy, b. Nov. 29, 1703.
• Thomas Bennett (abt. 1666 – 1701). In 1692, his father deeded to him a small portion of his farm, which the widow, as administrator, sold in small lots at various times from 1703 to 1707. It is not known that he had any children
• Stephen Bennett (1668 – 1680)
• Benjamin Bennett (abt. 1669 – 1722) died in Ipswich

Jacob Bennett

Jacob Bennett, son of Henry and Lydia, was born in 1651. He married about 1675, Sarah Buckley, who was born on 6 April 1652 to William Buckley of Salem and his wife Sarah, who was brought from England to Ipswich as a child with her parents, Thomas and Joanna Smith, in 1638. Sarah (the mother) was accused of witchcraft in 1692 and was acquitted in January 1693. Read the story.

Jacob’s father, Henry Bennett, conveyed to him by deed of gift, March 1, 1682-3, fifteen lots of upland and marsh on Hog Island, now known as Choate Island. He may have occupied this farm for some years before he came into possession and built his home on it. According to the Bennett Family of Ipswich, Jacob was walking with his father a short distance from his house, fell forward on the ice and groaned, but spoke no word, and was presently quite dead” on March 5, 1685-6.

Sarah Buckley Bennett outlived her husband, Jacob. After Jacob’s children had come of age, they joined with their mother in deeding their patrimonial estate, which then comprised twenty-one lots as originally laid out, to Captain Thomas Choate, who had long been a resident of the island, on March 4, 1704. Sarah died the following year (1705).

The children of Jacob and Sarah Bennett were Jacob, b. Oct. 9, 1676, Sarah, Stephen, Mary, and Ebenezer, born June 20, 1686; died young.” Jacob Bennett was an ancestor of the late Captain Parker Burnham, whose mother’s maiden name was Hannah Bennett. The 1731 Bennett House-Caldwell House at 11 County St. was constructed by Jacob Bennett’s grandson Joseph Bennett.

The Early Owner of This Property

Jonathan Wade’s Grant

Jonathan Wade received a grant in 1641 of “two hundred acres at Cheboko, having Mr. Winthrop’s farm on the northwest, Mr. Samuel Dudley’s northeast, and a creek called Chebacco Creeke on the Southeast.” On April 1, 1654, he made an ” indenture” to Henry Bennet of “his farm called and known by the name of said Wade, his farm, and given him by ye town of Ipswich.” It was bounded by the land of Mr. Samuel Symonds on the north, the land of Mr. Saltonstall on the east, and of Mr. Rogers on the west, and a creek on the south containing about two hundred acres with houses, etc.”9″

In 1698, at about the age of 69, Henry Bennett sold his large farm to John Wainwright Sr. for £800 (12:157), an unusually high sum. Bennett died in 1707. The deed included two hundred acres with dwelling houses, barns, etc., and the description of its boundaries was as before, except that it is specified that Major Saltingstall’s farm is “now in ye tenure of Isaack Fellows.” (View source)

Later Owners of this Property

John Wainwright

John Wainwright, son of wealthy Francis Wainwright, was a merchant whose large estate on East Street extended to the wharves, with a spacious mansion. He also owned a farm at the end of Town Farm Road, which he leased to Samuel Cars of Hampton on May 27, 1700. When John Wainwright’s will was probated in 1708 (Probate Records 310; 19-21), the estate was valued at £20,000. He is interred under a large horizontal marker at the Old North Burying Ground.

Col. John Wainwright Jr.

In John Wainwright Sr.’s will, he bequeathed his land to his sons Samuel and John. Samuel inherited his father’s East Street house, and John Jr. received Bennett’s Farm. In 1726, John Jr. initiated the construction of a new house on East Street. Col. John Wainwright was born in 1691, was a Harvard graduate, served as Clerk of the House, and became a Justice of the Court and Common Pleas. He was chosen Town Clerk in 1719-20 and held the office for many years. He died on Sept 1, 1739, at age 48, leaving his wife, Christian Wainwright, a widow with children and considerable debt. In 1741, the estate of Col. Wainwright was probated by Rowland Houghton. The widow Christian conveyed “one acre of upland situated within Bennet’s Farm so called, now in the possession of Stephen & Jacob Smith in Ipswich.” (Salem Deeds 81:182). She acquired a house on North Main Street to raise her children, and the great wealth that had passed from Col. Francis Wainwright to his sons and grandsons was depleted.

John, Stephen & Jacob Smith

Before 1721, John Wainwright sold part of his farm to John Smith (1654-1737). In 1730-1, John Smith and others of “Little Chebacco,” as the Argilla neighborhood was often called, petitioned for a school in their neighborhood (Waters Vol. II, p 283).

John Smith’s sons, Stephen & Jacob Smith, “husbandmen,” purchased Bennett’s Farm from the administrator of John Wainwright’s estate, Rowland Houghton, for £100.00 for the payment of Wainwright’s debts in November 1740 (Salem Deeds 81:183). This was far less than the £800.00 John Wainwright Sr. had paid Henry Bennett in 1698, perhaps because Wainwright had already begun dividing the estate, but it suggests that the William Bennett house had not been replaced or greatly improved.

Stephen Bennett had previously owned land in the vicinity of Bennett’s Farm. On January 16, 1722 Stephen Smith “yeoman” sold to Joseph Bennett (one of Henry Bennett’s sons), “in consideration of seventeen pounds money by Joseph Bennett” all his rights in housing and land “that did formerly belong or appertain unto Thomas Bennet Sr. late of said Ipswich which the said Smith bought of Thomas Bennett Jr., son of aforesaid Thomas, which lands are scituate lying and being in Ipswich and are part of that farm formerly called Bennet’s farm, bounded as followeth, northerly, easterly, and westerly upon lands formerly Col. John Wainwright’s and now in possession of John Smith Sen. of said Ipswich and southerly upon land of Robert Kinsman, containing in the whole seven acres…which I purchased from said Joseph Bennett (Salem Deeds 41:23).

Jacob Smith died March 4, 1789, at age 92 years, and is buried at the Old North Burying Ground (map D-10) beside his wife Lydia (map D-11), who died in 1772 at age 77. Stephen Smith died Oct. 29, 1744, and his wife Prudence died in 1721, at age 34 (map C-177). His house is still standing on Argilla Road.

John Choate

It is unknown how long the Smith family owned the farm, but the 1832 Ipswich map shows this location as “John Choate’s Farm.” Thomas Franklin Waters wrote that the area between Argilla Road and Essex Road was originally granted by the Town to John Winthrop Jr. Part of the Argilla farm came into the possession of John Choate before 1832, was inherited by his heirs, and later by Nathaniel Kinsman and his heirs. The 1910 Ipswich map shows the owner as E. M. Haskell. The Haskell heirs sold it to Richard Teller Crane.
