** One generation puteth away and another generation cometh."
INTEODUCTION.
As promised in the ^^ Prospectus for the Sanl)omtOQ Town Ilis-
torjs** under date of March, ld80« the ^^genealogical rcconU of more
than two hundre<l [223] family names of the original town*' are
given in this volume, besides briefer notices of nine others, in
Api^endix I. The object of the work was then stated to be ^^ to
communicate to present and future generations some knowledge of
the noble fathers of old Sanboruton; to transmit some just idea
of those later Ui)on the stage to those who shall come arter us, aud to
show what tlie rnjinence of Sanboruton has been, through her emi-
grating sons and daughters, in the varied walks of life, ui>on other
communities of the land and the world."
When the author first came to the town in 18G5, he fonnd numerous
families bearing the same name in the church and parish over which
he was pastor. Prompted by curiosity, and as a means of aiding him
in funeral services and other pastoral duties, he began to inquiixi into
the eoMiediati of these families. Before he was aware, ho had col-
lected records and scraps of information, whicli iucrease<1 in interest
as he proceeded, and soon convinced him that if the same work could
be continued and ampliiled, so as to embrace all the families of the
town without partiality, it might prove a task pleasant in itself, grati-
fying alike to present residents and absent descendants, and promotive
of Go<rs glory.
lie early discovered, from the details of family and Individual
exi)erlence, that the genealogies of the town were well worth pre-
serving, and that Its history should bo written ; to which he w:is further
encouraged by the earnest and rei)eated recommendations of the late
Dr. N. Uouton, of Concord (^ make it rich in genealogical material ! "),
as also by se\eral of the venerable men of the town, since passed
away. He found less than half the old families represented on tlie
town books, aud most of these but partially; whicli, however, lie
determined to take as a basis, Umving nothing oat which those public
records contained. Then, b^' consulting the registers in many a well-
worn family Bible, by interviews with aged people, and by extensive
currc.s|Mnulence with the scattcrc<l descendants of these families, a
uuMs of material wtm soon collected which might have seemed appall-
ing but for the cuLliusiasm it awakened. This work did not hiuiler
Vlll lUTUODUCnON.
but rather aided the pastor's labors in bis own parish, while it opened
up many avenues of usefulness abroad. It was afterwards resolved
to incorporate into these genealogical records what could be gathered
and condensed from such ohUmuy notices as came to hand, as also
from all the monumental incriptions in the older cenufteries of the
town, and all the earlier records of niarruiges and deaths^ both public
and private, some of the most valuable of which came to light quite
providentially.
The author's aim has been to embrace w?uU could be obfaiiied both of
the atkceMry and posterity of all tlie older and many of the later families,
though of course he found it necessary to exclude many whose resi-
dence in town was only temporary, or who, within the last tliirty
years, have become residents, especially of the new towns of Franklin
and Tllton ; excluding also his own family, so that the usual charge
against genealogists, of egotism in parading their own personal or
family histories, might not be brought against himself. IIo wished to
produce a record of such imparticdUy tiiat none of the original and
older families nor their descendants could complain of being neglected,
and of such fidixess that other local historians and genealogists might
llnd in this work all they could expect to obtain by corresponding with
the town clerk or visiting the town in person ; viz., whatever informa-
tion the public records, the cemeteries, and the oldest inhabitants
might afford them.
The records, as now presented, are, fVom the nature of the case,,
imperfect* The author has labored under the conscious disadvanttige
of not being a native of Sanbornton ; besides, the work of a genealo-
gist is never Jinished. It is like the photographer^s endeavor to take a
picture of a moving procession : before bis instruments can be adjusted 9
or his impression, canght at a given instant, can be prepared for
exhibition, the procession may l)e presenting altogether a ditferent
as^ject. The humiliating conclusion is also forced upon the writer of
a l)ook like this, that tliere must lie errors, omissions, and redundan-
cies upon almost every page : for of some families no written reconls
could be obtained ; the uncertain memories of the aged had to be
trusted for names and dates ; the random guesses of some individuals
would be given by word of mouth or letter, instead of facts; the
stolid indiiference of others must needs be oonfW)nted. The author
can, however, honestly say, there is not an imperfect record of a San-
bornton family in the whole work (excepting a few in the Appendix)
which he has not a.ttempted. and in many cases rcpeatedljs by visita-
tions, or correspondence, to make more full than it is.
In rcgai-d to the e2fitupJui^ he is aware that many of them are uncouth

crarj merits of the volume. But having determined to take any^ uU
mu«t in justice be included. The quaintiiess or roiighnecis of an
epitaph is olten its chief recommendation. The sentiment is usually
devout. The propriety of giving these epitaphs in connection with
the deaths of individuals whose records are transmittedt ap|)ears fh>m
the fact that some hearts were once moved to choose such expressions,
with reference to the same individuals, as their buried friends. Their
publication is no breach of courtesy, since they were all originally
designed for the public. They beloug peculiarly to, are in fact a part
of, the literary history' of the town ; while many of them, fast crum-
bling to decay, will in this volume be preserved for the precise purpose
for which at first designed, — the perusal of future generations.
It was proposed in the Prospectus that the *^ Sketdies** should be
merely ^* occasional or incidental," — thrown in ^^ to relieve the
monotony of genealogical detail," -~ and applied *^ principallj' to those
public or professional men who were several years resident in town,
and to other sons of Sanbomton either at home or abroad* of whom
(1) previously printed sketches or obituaries have been found, whose
friends (2) have voluntarily* furnished such notices, and who (3) have
been persouallj' known to the author during his fillecn years of resi-
dence here as pastor of the Congregational Church." Beyond tliese
limitations it was not possible to go, while it is fteely admitted that
many, to whose names only a brief reconl is appended, may have been
equally worthy of a fuller notice. But the work is strictly genealogical
rather than biographical. Many excellent citizens and sons of the
town had passed away during its first century, with whom no personal
acquaintance was possible ; of manj* of these, no printed memorials
have been found; and of others still, their surviving friends have
shown no desire that particular mention should be made. Where
much was not given, much cannot reasonably be required.
All cflbrts have been made which were possible, under the circum*
stances, to ascertain pedigreen and a^neeiUral conHedioHH with fulness
and accuracy. To this end the published ^^ Genealogies " extant have
been studiously consulted ; hut these are comparatively few In number.
The records of other towns have also been, to some extent, inspccteil,
though these, in many places, are defective. Where other means of
information failed, recourse could only be had to tlie tradition of aged
people belonging to dilTerent families, and in most cases no certain
light has been obtained back of the Sanl»omton immigrant ancestor,
or the first of a given name who settled in the town. The author has,
however, scrupulously distinguished between fact and probability in
tlie statements maile, at the headings of the various families.
More time might have made the records, especially of some families

in the Appendix, more Aill and satisfactory. The ^twenty j'cars"
assignetl by Dr. Bouton for tliis work are not yet completed. But
space TTOuld not have allowed the swelling of this volume much
beyond its present size ; and therefore, such as it is, with a full con-
sciousness of its imperfections, many of which arise, as before bintcd,
from the very nature of the enterprise, the obscurities of handwriting,
and the various and unsatisfactory ways in which the material has been
brought to the author's hands, he deems it best, without further delay
or attempts at Improvement, to give it to that public which has
patiently awaited its appearance.
The numerous ^* sources of information,'* and the many individuals
to whom the author feels indebted, are usually noticed under tbeir
respective records, as referred to from Index II. An exception is
found in tbe case of Mr. Stephen G. Taylor, of Brooklyn, N. Y.,
who^e manuscript records of the Taylor Family — the i-esult of several
months of patient labor— were of essential value. Separate mention
should also be made of the venerable Perkins Brotbers, Capt. Cbase,
who gave the earliest encoui-ageraent for this history, and his older
brother, Capt. John B., whose valuable aid was providentially con-
tinued nearly to the completion of the manuscript. The aged Mr.
Peter Burle^*, Mr. Jeremiah Weeks, so lately departed, and several
others, are abo entitled to gratei'ul remembrance ; while to the youib-
fid James H. W. Abbott, the author stands indebted for the genea-
logical papers which he left upon a few of the Sanbornton families ;
and to his father, the lamented James B. Abbott, M. D., for his
^* Sketches of the Sanbornton Phj'sicians," most of which are incor-
porated in the recoixls of the present volume, under their several
names.
EXPLANATIONS.
I. The genealogical anxingenient ciuployccl in tliU volume iff simple
ami OiXBxly expluiiicil, us follows : Ileath of famillca are given in the
larger tyi>e ; cliildre^i^ or descendants, immediately after, in the smaller
ty[ie. Through eueh family name, in all its branches, consecutive
nauibera arc found on tlie left margin of the printed page. These
numbers, preceiling the heads of families, are followed (except the
lirst), alter tlic name, by itmuller bracketed numbers, each rejenuny
back to that consecutive number at which the same individual api)ears
as a cliild. Those children, or names in smaller ty^ie, who are after-
wards to api^car as heads of families, are followed, after each name,
by larger bracketed numbers, rtfeiiring forward to the places where
the}' thus api)ear. It was lirst contemphited that all parents, esi)ecially
in the male lines, should thus reappear, even to tlie latest generations.
A few of the records which were earlieet preparedy like the Hunklns
.and Odell families, were arranged chiefly upon this principle; but it
was found that the same carried out would swell the volume to au
inordinate size, so that the arrangement was modified, as now appear*
ing in the Sanborn, Morrison, and most of the smaller families, and
generally in the tracing of female lines ; \\2., that not the last generation
but one of a given family should be the last to be thus transferred,
bnt the second or third before the last. B}' this arrangement not oidy
children are entered under their proi)er consecutive numbers, but
grandchiklreu and greatgrandchildren under the same consecutives,
the grandchildren appearing after the Arabic numerals 1, 2, 3, etc.,
the great-grandchildren after the Roman numerals I., II., III., etc. ;
and in a few cases, even groat-great-grandchildren after Arabics in
parenthesis, — (1), (2), (3), etc.
II. Pedigrees are indicated, after the several heads of families, by
a list of names in parenthesU,. with small exponent figures, as on
p. 1, the first over the name in question, thus, ^^ Ezra^** showing the
generation to which the individual belougs ; the next being the father,
*^ Samuel^," with ex|K>nent one less ; then the grandfather, with ex^)o-
nent one less, etc., back to the first known ancestor, whose name
api)ears with the exponent ^, thus,'*^George^" It must be noteiU
iiowever, that this jlfme exiionent does not indicate the ^^origiuul
ancestor" of the individual, nor even, in most cases, the earliest in

tills conntry (us with the Abbotts), but simply the ^nrUent nit kw^oa
to tiie collector of' these reconlst which often go no further buck than
the fint ancestor in tliis town, though in a few cases, as with the
Gilmans, to previous centuries in the old country.
JII. A few records coming in late, after the families had been
arranged for the press, were necessarily entered, like the female liitcs,
with two or more generations under the same consecutive number,
instead of bemg transferred, like corresponding branches of the same
family. Instance, p. 438 [47j. In other eases, for the same reason,
one or two consecutive numbers must needs be entered fructioMuilif^
as on p. 241, because the numbering luid been completeil, and could
not well be changeil, aller the new mati'rial was received.
IV. The parenlliesis ( — ) has other peculiar uses in this work
besides those already indicated; e. ^., (1.) After the Christian name
of a female, her via idea surname is frequently given in parenthesis
before her married surname, as on p 2, line 8. (2.) In giving the
children of a female lute, the family surname thus api)ears after the
Christian name of the first child, as on p. 1 [8, 1]. (3.) if two
ditlerent ilates wore foimd, as of births or town conflicting with
private reconls, or if a similar uncertainty existed as to names, etc.,
the more probable is given first, and the other directly after, in paren-
thesis. (4») In numerous instances, after the date of a marriage,
the surname of the olflciating clergyman is given in parenthesis, and
the honored names of ^' Woodman," '^ Crockett," and ^* Bodwell " thus
appear most frequently. All others are the ordinary uses of the
parenthems, which, from the sense, will be readily understood.
V. Quotation-marks after a death always indicate the epitaph taken
fVom the gravestone of the individual buried in banbornton, unless
otherwise stated.
YI. Figures after *^ae." indicate the years of age ; or, connected
with dashes, thus, ^^ 1 — 1 — 17" (p. 3 [2*J]), the years, months, and
days, unless otherwise specified.
VII. It is not claimed that all who served as soldiers in tlie several
wars are noted in these records ; but as many as were heard of in that
capacity are thus noticed, to whom reference is made in Index II.
VIIL Ordinarily, when no town is mentioneil as the place of birth,
Sanbomton is to be understood, wdess there is previous specification
to the contraiy, or the head of tlie given family is just before rcpra-
sented as having ehiewhere settled.
IX. In a few instances, families, chiefly belonging to other towns,
like the Ladd Family, were yet so intimately connected with 8anl)orn-
ton by marriages that their records are given with nearly the same
di^ree of fulness as the others.

X. When a// of a given family name are tJiown in the reconla to
have been ileseciuloil from one and llie 8ame ancestor, the ain^lar,
^'Fumiij^*' is, with a few exceptions, employed in the betidings (as
also in the Index and Table of Contcnls) ; when such common ances-
ir}' is nul shown, the pluraU ** Families," is emplo3'ed ; and, in either
ease, the term ^^liranch" or ^^ Branches" is used to designate the
nepuraUs family givvps,
XI. In the disputed orthognij)fitf of certain surnames, a compro-
mise is usually made. Preference may sometimes be given to the
older fomu> of 8i>elling in the running or page titles and the Index,
but not in the way of authority or dictation.
XII. Miscellaneous explanations: A mark of interrogation (?)
after a name or date implies uncertainty. Consecutive numbers are
always referrcti to In brackets, except in the Indexes. The usual
abbreviations for titles are employed, as also for the names of Slates
and provineesy which usually appear but once after each family name
when the place of residence is first given. Names of towns, if with-
out special designation, are supposed to bo in Ne# Hampshire. Other
abbreviations are those commonly used in books of this kind, as *^ b."
for ** bom •* ; *• m.*' for ** married " ; ** unm." for " unmarried " ; ** d."
for "died"; **ae." for "aged"; "dau." for "daughter"; "res."
for " resides " or " residence " ; " res'd. " for " resided " ; ** rem." for
" removed " ; and " t. r." for ** town record(s) ."

He (Cartel*^) was the 10th child and 4th son of Samuel^, whose father

mineil; has been by different i)ersons called the son, nephew, and
grandson of Kev. Stephen Baehiler, first pastor of Hampton, and this
last is the more common tradition in that town ; yet this is not certain,
as the Rev. Stephen was an elderly man on coming to this country ; is
not known to liave had any sons here (ses Sanborn family), and

Keclesmstical Hist.) lie was ordained Nov. 13, 1806, Dr. McFarland,
of Concord, preaching the sermon, from Titus ii. 11. ^*IIis ministry
was faithful and earnest in no common degree. He presented habit-
ually, as though he believed them with all his heart, the great funda-
mental doctrines, — ruin, redemption, and r^eneration.** After a
season of deep and prayerful anxiety for his people, in 1816, the Spirit
was poured fVom on high; the whole parish was shaken, and more
than one hundred were hopeftilly converted to Christ, many of whom
were fathers and mothers, among the most respectable and influential
members of the congregation. Other seasons of s[)ecial awakening
were enjoj'ed, iMit none comparable to this. During the forty^six
years of his ministry, 307 were received into the church, and thoro
were 484 baptisms, mostly of children. He was eminently a t)^ace-
maker, ** combining the utmost meekness of spirit and forbearance of
demeanor with a declared decision and firmness of principle " lie
took an early stfind on the temperance question, seconded by his
excellent wife ; ^* was, at once a moat unworldly man aud an excellent
financier.'* Was ever bound to his coUborer, Rev. Mr. Crockett, of
the 1st Baptist Church, **' by a beautiful friemlship, baaed on a mutual
and high respect, and a warm affection." He was dismissed by Uie
same council that installeil his successor, the Bev. James Boutwell,
June 24, 1852, and ever afterward proved a good parishioner, a faith-
ful teacher in the Sabbath school, aud an occasbnal aid to his pastt^r,
in the pulpit, while his strength continued. On the fiftieth anniver-
BHty of his settlement he preached a half-centur}' sermon, but it was
not published till after his death, which occurre<l March 24, 1863,
^* when his 86th j'car was nearly completed, after a brief illness of only
one week, passed in a ixmceful and steailfast reliance on Christ." At

with his parents in the olil ceinetcr}'. No native of the town has risen

Dr. Bodwell, who received his degi'ee of S. T. D. fh>m his ^i/uia
Mater in 1864, possessed *^ a high onler of natural gifts, and a broad
and generous culture.** '* English literature was a study and a delight
to him ; and few men understood and eacercised better the forces and
the graces of our langui^^e, whether written or s|K>ken.'*
**• From his early English training for the ministry and its exercise
there for the first fourteen }'ears, he acquired the off-hand, senii^iue'
vioriter style of the English pulpit. In this he had peculiar success,
and was, withal, very successful in training his ministerial pupils to
this model." ^^ He was above all artifice or professional maua*uvre,
trusting to the truth, pkunly given, and to the Spirit of God ; and as
indorsing this policy, the churches to which he ministered will always
carry distinct marks of growth and of fVuit for the years he was with
them." ** He had a keen sense of the apt and beautiful in the expres-
sion of thought, and many of his sermons will long be remembered as
admirable specimens of the best English." Several of them were pub-
lished, though a sensitiveness, now much regretted, kept many others
from the press. Among those printed are *^ A Pastor's Farewell to
his Flock," preached in the 1st Congregational Church, Woburn,
Aug. 5, 186ti, and ^^ The Preachers demanded in Our Day, and how
to secure Them," an inaugural discourse, as Professor at Hartford,
the same year ; but his native town and church were brought under
peculiar obligations to him for the ailmirable ^* Historical Address"
delivered at the centennial celebration of the Sanbornton Congrega-
tional Church, Nov. 13, 1871. He was one of the founders of the
*^ American Theological Ueview." and one of the four original proi>ri-
etors and editors of the ^^ Boston Congregational Review." many of
the pages of which, for its first five yexirs, were from his own pen.
His lectures on English life, delivered at Dartmouth College and else-
where, soon after returning from England, and on educational and
other topics, scattered through j'cars, placed him among our most
instructive iK>pular lecturers. As a pastor he excelled, especially
amid the ** reverses " of his ^leople, and ^* in the chambers of the sick
and of the dead." He will always stand out in the memory of those
who knew him ^^ as a fair specimen of the noble, libeml, Christian

bringing him into the liglit and liberty of the gospel. Ue graduated
at Dartmouth College, in 183G, ranking well as a scholar, and at the
Andover Theolc^ical Seminar}', in 1840, having spent one year teach-

first settlement was at Brentwood, from Nov. 4, 1841, till May 12,
lb52, when he repaired immediately to Sanbomton, and commenced
his labors on the following Sabbath. Installed June 24, 1852. An
anient attachment grew up between him and the people, which con-
tinued unabated till severed by his death, April 21, 1365, in his 5l8t
year, alter montlis of prostration and suffering. *^ Our pastor," and
** I sliall rise again,** are uiion his tombstone. He was a sound theo-
bgian, — dweUiug with much love and earnestness U|)on the doctrines
of gracCt — an uuusually attractive preacher, and an ardent patriot.
^*The banner of the cross was first in his esteem, and next the stars
and stripes.** Sixty members were added to the church during his
ministry. His last most deeply affecting interview with his people was
at Communion, on the first Sabbath of March, 1865, soon after a
^* wonderful revelation of the Divine Redeemer** to him on that morn-
ing, after which he was ^* wholly weaueil from earth '* and all its anx-
ieties, so tliat, to the closing hour of life, his ^* peace was as a river.'*

Bunker, w:is a native of Banuitead, carlj' ciuigratcd to Leo, and
thence, for his iinal scttleuient, to New Loudon. (Tlie family is

THE BURLEY, OR BURLEIGH, FAMILY,
The orthography of Burley was earliest employed in Sanboriiton,
and U most common now among the descendants In town, tliough
Burleigh is clatmcil by some as tlic mora ancient, and is f:ir moi*c gen-
erally in vogue in other places. (Bnrghlc}', tiie *' castle on the moor,"
prevailed before Queen Elizabeth's day.) The race, as a whole,
has been distinguished for solid ph3'sical as well as superior mental
endowments. It might, indeed, be styled, by a 3-et briefer s[>eiling,
the ^aW^ race, as four brothers, named below [15, IG, 19, 21],
t. e., Joseph, Nathaniel, David, and Daniel, were weiglieil on one

THE CALL FAMILY.
Though i^csiduig; mostly iu that part of Audovcr which is now Frank-

The orthography of this iiaiuo b divided. Our oldest rccorda in
Saiiboratou favor **Cawlc3%" though ** Galley " now more generally
prevails, and some insist that this is tlic primitive wa}' of spelling. Of
the numerous families in this town, we give, first, in genealogical
order, the three ancestors who are known to have been brotliers, and
tlie sons of:
1. TuouAS, and Mary, his wiio. The records of Epping have
been searched in vain for fuller ancestral notes uiK>n this and otlicr
families who came thence to this town. We only know that this is
tlie parentage of the three brothers from the fact that after the birth
of [3], the only Callc}' given, he is culled the son of Thonnts and
Mary, as above, the known parents of [2]. while also [8] and [4] are
acknowledged brothera. Hence three of their sous (tfce ul.so Ad-

danger ; of a cheerful and equable temperament ; skdAil and popular

ical Society, of which body he was ever a faithful and approved mem-
ber, whose seat, at its meetings, was seldom found vacated.

earnestly advocated Peruvian bark several years in advance of other
physicians. He was a horticulturist, and first introduced the ^^ San-

Information respecting others, will leave their histor}' meagre and

were occasioned by the loss of that child. The place is still shown,
in pasture back of his old house site, where he consecrateil himself to
God. Such were his gifts after this, that he was advised by Capt.
Folsom, of whom he h-arned the joiner's trade, and by others, to
preach. Lctl his family, and went to Gilmanton Academy. Preached
his first sermon on a hii'ge rock, on tlie Batchelder farm, and was the
firat to occupy the original Bay meeting-house. He soon after rem. to
New Durham, and was associated with Kev. B. Randall, the founder
of th.! Fi-ce Will Baptist denomination. While there, two years,
1809-11, he preached frequently in this town, near his former home,
es|)ecially during a revival, which culminated from his last sermons,
before moving away. On one of these ooca:iions, having arrtvcil from
N. D., he proceeded up the aisle, singing, with singular effect, a hymn
which he had compose<l on the wa}*, a large audience being in readi-
ness for him. First lines :
** Dear brethren, we have met apiin,
To preach and pray oud ttixkg.**
Second stanza :
*' Shico I wu« here, how Iiave you done ?
How liave you walked ? or have you run 7
Or Uke tlie eagle flew ?

There were four six-line sUmzas. The}' were first procured by Elins
Smith, who had them printed, and the}* afterwards appeared, with
alterations, in several editions of the Free Will Baptist Conference
Hymn-Book. Another h3'mu of his, entitled *^ The GUI Hemlock/'

THE COLBY FAMILIES.
At least three distinct branches of Colby families appear in the
early histor}' of Sanbomton, two of which are known to liave been
counccteil. They may have descended fh>m Anthony Colby, who,
according to Savage, was in Cambridge, Mass., 1632 ; freeman, 1634 ;
moved to Salisbury, and d. 1663, leaving eight children, — Samuel,
rep. from Amesbury, 1689, being probably of this family; or, as
tradition here informs us, they may have sprung fVom one or more of
the ^^ tliree brothers,'' William, Isaac, and Philip, who arc thought to
have ''emigrated from tlie Nortli of England between 1675 and 1750."

fairly cstabliMied as the owner of land, in Lot No. 26, 1st Div., in

was at Site 1, some CO rods back from the litiy at the old Copp place.

GENEALOGIES. — CUOClvETT. 191
Mr. Crockett was known cxtcusivcl}', and was happ3' in extending
his usetulncss uh far as his uequaintuuce. Many now rise up and call
him blcsiie<l (18^o), not only in the town in which ho was settled. l)ut
in all the surrounding region, lie was a niau that took a very active
part in the operations ot* all public bodies of a religious character.
For a number of years he acted as moderator in the meetings
of the Meredith Assocuition, and was frequently' called to preside in
councils and ecclesiastical bodies. He was not a man of public eilu-
cation, but he knew how to prize an education, and was ver}* active in
aiding whatever promoted this object. For a long time previous to
his death, he was a member of the board of overseers in the New
Hampton Institution, and a trustee of the Woodman Sanboniton
Academy, to both of which institutions he contributed liberally of his
substance. He was a beloved and useAil pastor; genial and social,
sympathetic, and fi'equent in his visits among his own people, and in
his intercoui-se with other denominations, kind and prudent. He led
the church successfully through man}' seasons of trial, but also of
great revival interest, baptizing more than three hundi*ed and forty,
who were added to the church during his ministry. He officiateil at
by far a greater number of funerals and marriages (as the t. r. show)
than any other clergj'man in this town.
About two 3'ears before his death, he was much injured in conse-
quence of his horse taking flight, on which ho was riding. He recov«
ureil from this injury, however, so far as to. be able to attend to his
customary pastoral duties until the Ist of June, 18S2. During the
week befoits its tirst Sabbath, he preached a ftiueral sermon, and on
Friday attended the chnrch meeting prc|>aratory to oommuuion. His
*>*> lost text," as his gravestone uiforms us, was Rev. xxi. 7, ^* He that
overcometh, shall inherit all things"; after discoursing from which,
he administered the Lord's Supper to the church for the last time,
being the two hundrc<l and twentieth tlmt he had enjoyed tliat privilege
with the licople of hb» charge. He was immediately' attackeil witli a
disease which ballletl all nicilical aid, depriving him a part of the time
of the use of his reason, yet leaving him op|x>rtuuity, in his lucid
moments, to show that his faith in the Saviour remained unfaltering,
and tiiat the gORi>el which he had preachetl to others was his su[>i)oi't
in the htst conllict. Just before his death, he gave directions rosiK;ct-
ing his funenil scr\ici»s, and sweetly fell nslecp in Jesus, Feb. C, IKM}^
in the G7th year of his age, and the forty-first of Ins ministiy. The

THE ELKINS FAMILY.
From ancient Elkins deeds, in i)ossession of Mr. Charles 6. Durgin,
we infer that
1 • Jonathan' , of Hampton, 1 70 1 , uut}' have been an earlj* ancestor
of the Sauboniton Elkiuses ; that two of his sons,
2, 3. Mos£s* (Dea.) and Ouadiau* were in Kingston, 1749, and
that the latter was probably the father of
4. Petek^, who first settled in Kingston, then Hawke, and was
said to be of that town (Ilawke, now Danville), Feb. 15, 1783, when
he received land, b}' deed, from Abraham Darling, in Lots 73 ami 74,
2d Div. This establishes Uie time of his first settlement near the
Tin Corner, place of late owned by James Morrison, where he kept a

THE GAGE FAMILY
Is of Norman extraction, deriving its descent from De Gaga, Gauga,
or Gage, who accompanied William the Conqueror into England, and
was afterwards rewarded with large grants of land. A line of seven
generations, from
1. John Gagk, 1408, terminates with
2. John, Esq., oldest son of Sir Eilward, who was knighted by
Queen Mary. He was 30 years of age at his father's death, and heir
to lilteeu manors in Sussex ; but surviving all his brothers, and leav-
ing no issue, the estate descended to his nephew, the earliest known

THE GALE FAMILIES.— Four BuAKCHES. — L
The earliest ancestors of the Gule family in tills coiiatr)' are believed
to be the three following : —
1. AuuAiiAir, of Watcrtown, Mass., 1640 (the son of Richani),
wlio m. Saruh Fiske, and ^^ bad inauy children." Also:
2. A^iiuos£, of Marblehead, Mass., 1G74, and one of the founders
of the church there, but previously of Salem, where his childi-eu were
baptized, as follows :
3. 4. Be.\*jamin and Euzabktii, bap. May 17, 1GC3,
5, 6. CiiAUiTY, bap. June 17, 1CG4. AuiiBosic, bap. 1065; and Anally,
7. Baktqolomew, a shipwright, who came from England to Boston.
Twelve of the name had gru^lualed from New England colleges in
1834. Branches II. and III. of the Sautioruton Gales are doubtless
each descended from one of the above, and so may be this [L].
For, although,
8. John Gale, the earliest settler of the name in town« always
bore the soln'iquet of ^' Dutchman Gale/' and is hence supposed to have
been of Dutch descent, yet more reliable information has since proved
that he was not a Dutchman by race, but merely came from New
York to Exeter. His father, or earlier progenitor, may, therefore,
have belonged to one of the ufure-meiitioned families, and emigraictl
from New Kughuid to New York, whence he returned, and married
Susan McCurty, lu Exeter. (Of her father there is the following
GENEALOGIES. — G^ILE. 293
romantic legend among her descendanU in this vicinity : that he was
scut from Ireland wlkcn a little bo3*, by hi^ aunt, who wished to secure
a large property which he was to have inherited. His parents had
died, and she consigned him to a sea-captaiu, to be t:ikcn to parts un-
known. He was finally left at Kxcter, *^ where he had m.« and could
not return/' when his aunt, having learned of his destination, ix*pentcd
on her death-bed, and sent for him !) He [8] was in town l)efore
17G8 (tfce ** Petition*'), and by •* lletums of Roads," in 1771-72,
seems to have been living at first in the southwest part of the town, in
the vicinit}' of tbe Winnipiseogec and John Clark's, on Lot C9« 2il Div.
Prior to Aug., 1778, however, he must have located just west of the

THE GIBSON FAMILY
Is said to be of English origin, and two brothers, James and John,
when coming to this country, are said to have lost their father on the
passage. A doubtful legend is also i-elated, tliat one of these brothers
from Englaud married the daugliter of a nobleman, against the will
of her parents, aud that lie was the father of Jeremiah Gibson, an
early settler of Canterbur3\ The name appears as '^ Gipson " on the
*• Petition of 1708," which was signed by the oldest of the five broth-
ers, who early gained possession of Lot No. 58; 2d Div., on which
Union Bridge village now stands, aud gave their original name ('^ Gib-
sou's") to the falb below the Bridge. Only the two oldest and
youngest of these brothers can now be traced to any extent. It is
certain that their father did not settle here, though suppose<l, at ili-st,
to have been the ^' John of 17G8/' Perha|)s he was the *^ Jeremiah
of Canterbur^V' above. The live brothers were :

THK GILMAN FAMILIES. — Five oa Six Braxcues.
By the aid ot Arthur Gilinan's ^^ Genealogy" (chiefly of the Jolm
Gilnian family of Exeter), we aro enabled to trace most of the San-
borntou families of this name further back than any other family in
town. The common ancestor is Edwaud^ of Caston, Norfolk, Kng.,
who was there m. to Uose llysse, June 22« 1550. His will was dated
Feb. 5, 1573, devising his mansion-house in Caston to his eldest son,
John, and his other estates to live daughters aud three other sons, among
whom UouEUT^ was baptized at Caston, Julj^ 10, 1559. Ills wife
Mary was tliere buried March 9, 1G18, and ho March 6, 1G3K But
he had lived at Ilingham, Eng , as his son Edwaud' was there b.,
probably 1587-8; m. Mary Chirk, of (at) Ilingham, June 3, IGM,

TIIK IIAUPER FAMILY.
1. William Haupeb's name first appears upon the town rccoixla as
'' Capt." W. li., chosen *' representative 1785," and Wm. H., E^q.
(as ever alter), ^'constahle 178G " He came from DeerAeld some
time previously to the former 3'ear, where he had first settle<l, liavinjj^
m. Mary Lane, dan. of John'', and sister of the Lane brothers who
settled in this town. Of his parentage nothing is known, save that
his mother was a bcribner, and that the ^^ old Mr. Ilar[>er, who (lye<l "
here Aug. 25, 17i)0, was probably his father. IJe is pi*esumed to
have been desccndetl from Joseph IJaqxir, an early resident of Kraiu-
tree, Mass. One of his sisters, Anna, b. April 3. 1750, hud m. David
Bean {nee p. 28 [4]) ; another, Elizabeth, m., 1st, a Smith, in Ray-
mond, or Candia (father of Nathan, in this town) ; m., 2d, Asahcl
i^uimby (see) ; m., 3d, Dea. Ebcnczer Colb}' (:tee p. 171 [117]) ; and
m., 4th, Benjamin Robinson, thi father of Benjamin, Jr. (Calef Hill).
lie bought out Josiuh Sanl)orn, on the hill above the first meeliu<^-
house, anil became an extensive landholder in other parts of the town,
lie also took a prominent part in all public aliairs in town, as
being its only lawyer, and built one of the finest houses of that
day, now owned b}' Mr. Chesley, indulging a little rivaUy wiih Mr.
George C. Ward, which resulted in the third storj' upon the lattei-'s
house at the lower end of the village !
in 1788 he was chosen delegate from Sanbomton to the convention
held in Exeter and Concord for adopting the new Constitution of the
United States. >uspicions were entertained that he would oppose it,
and the friends of the Constitution in town ^* endeavored, by all the
l>owers of i>ersuasion they could command, to- induce him to change
his puriK>se.'* He c*ontended that ''the powers couferred upon tiie
general government were too great ; that the abundant patronage con-
ferred ui)on some, and the independent tenure of office U|x>n other
departments, would tend to consolidation, and lead to the exercise of
tyranny and oppression." It was rumored that Esq. Harper was
among the four or five members of the convention for whom a strat-
agem was planned to detain them from the final vote ; btit it did not
succeed in his case, for his vote was among the 47 given against the
Constitution, though, happily, with 57 in its favor ! IJe was thought
to be entirely sincere in his convictions, and by his action in this mat-
ter seems not to have lost his popuhint}' among his fellow-citizens, as
he was electeil sole represehtative of the town from 1791 to ISOO,
cuntinuoutfly, and three times moderator of town meeting, 1TD2-0G.
He d. Dec. 31, 1800 ; his wile had d. June 18, 180G ; his mother, as
'^ Widow Harper," d. in this town, April G, 1803. Children :
