Of the men directly connected with Northfield History in the Falls Fight May 15, 1676 (toward the end of King Philip's War) were Nathaniel Alexander, James Bennett, Philip Mattoon, Joseph Kellogg, Samuel Boltwood, Stephen Belding, William Clark, John Lyman, Cornelius Merry and Joseph Warriner. In 1736, the General Court granted to the survivors of this fight, and their descendant, a twonship, which, in commemoration of the even was named Falltown. It has since been named Bernardston.

The New England Historical Society have a genealogy of the Mattoon Family but it cannot be taken from the library. It is in the form of a narrative and states that Philip Mattoon came from Glasgow, Scotland, and was sent to Boston to defend the towns along the Connecticut River.

Philip Mattoon came to Deerfield from the east with Caption Turner and was with him at Falls Fight in 1676. In 1678 he leased for eleven years all the lands Major John Pynchon had at Pocumtuck. Mattoon came to Deerfield with the permanent settlement and built on No. 22. At his death, lot and house wee appraised at 20 pounds. He also had a "house in the fort with fencing about it." That was appraised at 3 pounds. (page 159, History of Deerfield)

"Philip Mattoon, another young man, was about to pitch his tent her (Pocumtuck) July 31st, 1677, he made a bargain with John Pynchon, by which he could secure a home for his bride and on Sept. 10th he married Sarah, daughter of John Hawks of Hadley. The attempt at settlement failing, Mattoon came here later and here died in 1696. This contract, the oldest met with, is given as illustrating in several points the condition of business affairs among the pioneers. It is found in John Pychons account book,"

"July 21, 1677, Let out to Philip Mattoon my 18 cow commons and 4 sheep commons (except the home lot which is already disposed of) according as itis laid out in several divisiond, towards the upper end of Pocumtuck Meadows for 11 years from the first of March next, to pay all rates, taxes and charges, to make and leave good fences, to build on the land a good dwelling house, strong, substantial & well built & compleatly finished, 30 feet long, 20 feet wide & 10 feet stud, Also a barn, at least 48 feet long, 24 feet wide and 14 feet stud, well braced, all pts to be strong, substantial& workmanlike, & to compleate & finish the same before the end of the term, & then leave & deliver up all in good condition. He is also to pay thirty shillings a year for nine years, 3 pounds the tenth and 4 pounds the last year. He is to have the use of two cows between the ages of four and seven years, & return two of like cows." (page 209, History of Deerfield)

"Philip Mattoon, Jonathan Church and Robert Alexander were chosen Haywards for ye year ending." This was decided "....at a meeting without date, but which appears to have been held Dec. 16, 1686." (page 217)

"Home lists were afterwards grated to Robert Poag, Nahaniel Brooks, John Williams, Philip Mattoon and Samuel Beaman."

The Mattoon's are reported to be of French Huguenot origin and probably bore the continental name of "Maton". Thousands of French Huguenots took refuge in Holland and England in the wake of religious persecutions in France during the 15th Century. Among the names found in the early English sailing lists are a few Matons, but no Mattoons. The first colonial ancestor was Hujubrecht (Hujbrecht or Hubartus) Mattoon whose name appears originally as a witness to Thomas Walford's deed in 1648/49, at Strawberry Banke. Portsmouth, New Hampshire. The Dutch spelling of his name (by his own hand) indicates the strong likelihood of family residence in Holland in his formative years at least. With others, at Kittery, Maine, he signed the Oath of Allegiance to the government of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, 16 Nov 1652. It is this Hujbrecht Mattoon who is attributed by reputable genealogists to be the father of Philip Mattoon of Deerfield, MA.
