The Dering letters involve members of the family from 1733 to 1838. Henry Dering arrived in America in the mid-1600. He began as a bar keep in a small village in New Hampshire and ended up as a merchant in Boston, a business that he left to his only son, who in turn left it to his two sons. The business was lost to fire and bad credit and Thomas took his wife and child to the 1,000 acre estate on Shelter Island the wife and her sister had inherited.Three generations lived and worked there through the Revolution and the beginnings of a new nation before a tragic death caused the family to sell.
