Notes:

From Jackson Family History site

JOHN JACKSON (c. 1645/50-1725) was a son of Robert Jackson of Hempstead, Long Island, who had moved from Stamford, Connecticut, to Long Island, in 1644.  Robert was the first of the line in this country as at present established.  The son John was born about and between 1645 and 1650 presumably at Hempstead.  He lived much of his life at Jerusalem, Long Island.  His wife was Elizabeth, a daughter of Captain John Seaman (1610-1695 of Hempstead, by his first wife Elizabeth, a daughter of John Strickland of Hempstead.  It is not known when Elizabeth (Seaman) Jackson was born or died. 
John Jackson's will was made on August 26, 1724, and proved December 6, 1725, so he certainly died in 1725.  The will disposed of considerable land to all his sons and left slaves and furniture to his daughters, he having nine children in all. 
John Jackson was Sheriff of Queens County in 1691, was a member of the Assembly, and a Colonel of the Long Island militia.  His rank in the militia was a very high one for the times and the details of his appointment are not known but the fact of his commission is well established.  He was promoted from Captain to Major in 1697.  In 1700 he was a Lieutenant Colonel commanding the regiment of foot of Queens County under commission of the Earl of Bellomont, Governor of the Province of New York, and later promoted.

Notes:

From history of Jones family:

His father-in-law, John Hewlett, a large landholder at East Woods (now Woodbury), in the town of Oyster Bay, near the Suffolk Co. line, was a justice of the peace, and, having sworn allegiance to the King, and being forty-five years of age, refused to take arms on either side. This was treated by the supporters of Congress as excusable, and he was not harshly dealt with, nor were the Quakers, which some members of the family joined. There were many Quakers in the town located between the Royalists on the west, and the supporters of Congress on the east.

The Hewlett family was numerous ; an early George on L. I. in 1668 had four sons, who all left descendants, including George and the first John, living in 1683, whose son John, b. 1703, m.
Hannah, dau. of 2d Col. John Jackson, and was the father of the third John Hewlett, the justice above mentioned. The mother of the justice being a Jackson, he doubtless was befriended by
that large family.

Capt. Richard Hewlett, son of Daniel, who had served in the French war, supported the English government. He became Colonel, Qr. Master, and Commissary, was active on L. I. during the war, and assumed the right to order the local militia or English subordinates. He or his captn. gave some orders to this John Jones (TIL 12) which required acts that were unpopular, such as collecting assessments of hay. Some of the hay collected and stacked was burned by the Continentals. Although not accused of any misconduct, the fact of losing the hay may have deprived his troop of reward from the British, who occupied the place in force during the winter.

The justice of the peace, by order, took charge of collecting the assessment imposed as they would a tax. The Judge George Duncan Ludlow (called a "Superintendent of Police") took charge of them and their local action. The native officers probably acted with more moderation than the foreigners.

…

His father-in-law. Justice John Hewlett, lived until 4 April. 1812, and was buried on a hill near his home at East Woods called "Mount Nebo." The justice divided his large landed estate among some of his children by deeds in 1791, etc. His daughter Mary married Isaac Youngs ; his eldest son, Townsend, married a sister of this John Jones. His second son, Isaac Hewlett, married Rhoda Van W>ck, and his son Divine married Ann, dau. of Jac. Coles, of Duck Pond. His dau. Elizabeth married Samuel Jones, son of William.

It will be noticed how strongly the members of the family were tied together ; living near the boundary line between Queens and Suffolk Co., through a long civil war, the hostilities and jealousies which convulsed the whole country doubtless taught them to adhere firmly to each other and avoid giving offence.

Plunge Kills Mrs. Gunari
Widow of Importer, Ill, Drops 12 Stories to East 87th Street

Mrs. Mary Coles Gunari, widow of Andrew P. Gunari, who was an executive of Ralli Brothers, Ltd., importers, was killed about 10 o'clock yesterday morning when she fell or jumped from a window of her twelfth-floor apartment at 1,060 Park Avenue. She was 65 years old.

Detective Martin Hayes said the fall occurred after a nurse, Alice Conway, had left the room to get a bottle of spirits of ammonia. Mrs. Gunari had been under a physician’s care for a nervous disorder. The body landed on a sidewalk near Eighty-seventh street.

Mrs. Gunari is survived by a daughter from her first marriage, Mrs. Henry Clews Jr., who is in England. Also surviving are two sisters, Mrs. Annie H. Albertson of Amityville, L.I., and Mrs. Sarah A. Draegert of Brooklyn, and a brother, John H. Coles of Little Neck.

Mrs. Gunari’s first husband was Jacob W. Titus of Glen Cove. Her second husband was Isaac J. Van Amburgh. She was married to Mr. Gunari in New Canaan, Conn., on June 9, 1928. He died in 1934.

• Census: 30 Apr 1910, Oyster Bay, Nassau, NY, USA

Notes:

My original notes on Henry/Harry, which I believe came from Edna Valentine (I failed to source original info), appeared to have a marriage date for Henry Valentine and Edna Luyster of 21 Dec 1917. However, the NY Times announcement of Edna Luyster’s second marriage in 1921 mentions that her first husband had died in 1917. Moreover, there is a census record for Henry and Edna living together married in Oyster Bay in 1910, stating they had been married five years. Have verified through Brooklyn Eagle Obit that he died 21 Dec 1917.

While I have found Henry/Harry listed in multiple genealogical database as Henry Hewlett Valentine, I’ve yet to see that name properly sourced, and have repeatedly found him listed as Henry Webber Valentine (including his death notice).

Harry was an early automobile enthusiast, and is listed in the 1914 Automobile Owners Directory as the proud owner of a Willys.

• Obituary: From NY Times 23-Apr-1985 Robert R. Coles, an astronomer and former chairman of the Hayden Planetarium, and an authority on the history of Long Island, died of a heart attack Saturday at Brattleboro (Vt.) Memorial Hospital. He was 77 years old and lived in Glen Cove, L.I. Mr. Coles was chairman of the planetarium from 1951 through 1953. In that period and for many years before, he lectured and presented programs that opened some of the mysteries of the heavens to rapt audiences of children and adults in the planetarium's auditorium at Central Park West and 80th Street. One of his most popular displays, presented in July and August of 1952, was a simulated trip on a rocket to the moon, in which spectators watching the planetarium's domed ceiling were whisked a quarter of a million miles through space for a landing at one of the moon's craters. Mr. Coles, born in Glen Cove, was a direct descendant of a 1668 settler of the community, which was then known as Musketa Cove. Mr. Coles lived in the original Coles homestead, and he served for many years as Glen Cove's official historian. After leaving the planetarium, he wrote widely on the lore and history of Long Island. Among his books were ''The Long Island Indian,'' ''The Geology of Long Island'' and two histories of Glen Cove. Mr. Coles attended Columbia University before joining the department of education at the American Museum of Natural History in 1929 as a lecturer on general science. He became a lecturer at the planetarium in 1936 and was named associate curator in 1945 after serving three years in the Air Force. He was a member of the American Astronomical Society and a Fellow in the Royal Astronomical Society of England. Mr. Coles is survived by his wife, the former Edna May Kempsell; two daughters, the Rev. Constance Coles of Manhattan and Meribelle Coles of Brattleboro; two sons, Franklin A. Coles of Milan, N.Y., and R. Reed Coles Jr. of Springfield, Mass., and three grandchildren. A funeral service will be held at 11 A.M. today at the Friends Quaker Meeting in Matinecock, L.I.

In the mid-1950s, Trapnell served as story editor of the classic live television series "Four Star Playhouse," a collaboration of performers Charles Boyer, Ida Lupino, David Niven and Dick Powell. "With the number of dramatic shows on TV increasing each year," Trapnell told The Times in 1954, "competition for good stories is now a dead serious business." In those years Trapnell selected 80 scripts a year to supply "Four Star" and two half-hour shows, "The Star" and "The Story." In addition to currying known Hollywood writers, Trapnell sought top-quality material in UCLA theater arts classes and trade publications. From 1959 to 1962, Trapnell wrote his own stories and produced Warner Bros.' "Maverick," which launched James Garner as a star. Trapnell also wrote for the Western series "Lawman" and "Yancy Derringer." A native of New York, Trapnell was educated at Virginia Military Institute and New York University and began his career as a journalist on the Glen Cove Record. He moved to Hollywood in 1936 as a reader at RKO and then worked for 20th Century Fox as story editor and associate producer until 1953. He was story editor at Universal from 1962 until his retirement in 1975. In 1966, Trapnell wrote a well-received book titled "Teleplay," a guide for aspiring scriptwriters. Survivors include two daughters, Sarah Trapnell Byrne of Palo Alto and Jane Trapnell Marino of New York, three grandchildren and three great-grandchildren. A memorial service is scheduled at 2 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 14, in Westwood Memorial Park. The family has asked that any memorial contributions be made to the American Heart Assn.

From Hamilton College website:

Rushmore Rowley Valentine, Jr. '51
Rushmore Rowley Valentine, Jr. '51, a former geologist, was born on February 12, 1927, to Rushmore R. '19, an accountant, and Adelaide Jones Valentine, in Brooklyn, NY. He was a nephew of Harvey H. '25 and Joseph C. Valentine '25. Young Rushmore grew up on Long Island, where he was graduated from Friends Academy in Locust Valley. He followed his father and uncles to College Hill in 1947, after serving in the U.S. Army Air Force during the final months and aftermath of World War II. He joined their fraternity, Delta Upsilon, before leaving the Hill after three semesters at the end of 1948.

Rushmore Valentine, who later attended Columbia University, "traveled the world in his early career as a geologist," according to his newspaper obituary. He was with Cities Service Petroleum Co. in Bogota, Colombia, when the College heard from him in 1956. He later settled in the Rochester, NY, area, where he was employed for 25 years by Rochester Products, manufacturers of containers and fuel injection systems, until his retirement in 1992.

The College has only recently learned of Rushmore R. Valentine, Jr.'s death on December 30, 2005. Predeceased by his wife, Nancy B. Valentine, he was survived by two daughters, Beth Quattrociocchi and Susan Schultz, and three grandchildren and a sister.
