PREFACE. 


It  is  now  more  than  thirty-two  years  since  the  compiler  of  this  Genealogy  was  first 
led  into  an  investigation  of  the  Records  by  a  natural  curiosity  to  learn  something  about 
his  ancestry.  Having  traced  his  own  line  back  to  the  first  of  his  ancestors  who  settled 
in  this  country,  he  felt  a  desire  to  continue  these  inquiries  and  gather  from  every  source 
all  that  might  be  learned  about  the  descendants  of  that  original  progenitor.  The  re- 
sult of  this  investigation,  which  represents  the  labor,  in  all  that  time,  of  more  than 
four  years,  will  be  found  in  this  volume,  which  has  been  printed  not  only  with  the  hope 
that  it  will  prove  interesting  to  those  of  the  compiler's  kindred  now  living,  but  also 
with  the  expectation  that  some  copies,  at  any  rate,  will  be  preserved  on  the  family 
tables,  or  on  the  shelves  of  the  more  public  town  and  district  libraries,  to  meet  the  eyes 
of  future  generations  of  this  name,  and  excite  iu  them  a  desire  to  know  something  about 
the  history  of  their  family. 

The  origin  of  this  surname  is  clearly  enough  shown  in  its  form,  which  has  existed 
now  for  more  than  thirty  generations,  or  ever  since  surnames  began  to  be  established, 
and  is  well  rendered  in  the  old  English  Records  by  the  Latin  form  Pauper,  as,  for  in- 
stance, Roger  le  Pauper  or  Roger  le  Poer,  the  famous  Bishop  of  Salisbury,  whose  mon- 
nment  may  still  be  seen  iu  the  beautiful  cathedral  which  he  fonnded  but  did  not  live  to 
see  finished,  the  exquisite  spire  of  which,  rising  to  a  height  of  over  four  hundred  feet, 
overlooks  old  Sarum,  once  a  crowded  city  under  the  Saxon  rule,  now  an  uninhabited 
hill<  and  the  great  Salisbury  Plain  with  its  mysterious  ruins  of  Stonehenge  and  its 
mounds  and  rings,  memorials  of  a  still  older  period,  when  the  druids  offered  up  their 
sacrifices  and  the  native  Britons  sought  vainly  to  withstand  the  steady  march  of  the 
disciplined  Roman  legions  ;  while  close  at  hand,  within  a  short  walk  from  the  cathedral 
city,  on  the  banks  of  a  quiet  stream,  lies  Ambrosebury,  Ambresbury  or  Amesbury, 
whence  our  New  England  town  took  its  name,  and  where  once  lived  a  Philip  le  Poer 
the  ancestor  of  the  present  well-known  English  family  of  Poore,  whose  seat  is  now  at 
RHshall  in  the  same  county  of  Wilts.  Both  iu  England  and  in  this  country  the  name 
has  been  variously  spelled,  as  Poor,  Poore,  Poer  and  eveu  Power.  The  more  common 
form,  however,  seems  to  have  been  Poore. 

Without  being  able  to  state  definitely  from  what  place  in  old  England  our  first  Now 
England  ancestor  came,  there  are  some  circumstances,  at  least,  which  lead  to  the  sup- 
position that  we  may  look  to  Wiltshire,  or  its  neighboring  county  Hampshire,  for  the 
immigrant's  birth-place.  Chief  Justice  Samuel  Scwall,  in  a  letter  writteu  in  1G84-5, 
to  his  uncle  Stephen  Dummer,  theu  liviug  in  Bishopstoke,  a  parish  of  Hampshire,  close

to  the  southeastern  borders  of  Wiltshire,  wrote,  "we  are  in  good  health  here  in 
Boston ;  so  our  friends  at  Newbury  are  as  far  as  I  know.  John  Poor  of  the  Neck 
died  the  beginning  of  this  winter."  [N.  E.  Hist.  Gen.  Reg.,  Vol.  IX,  p.  287.] 
And  we  find  that  Alice  Poore,  aged  20,  Samuel  Poore,  aged  18,  and  Daniel  Poore, 
aged  14  years,  all  came  together  with  the  family  of  Stephen  Dummer  in  the  Bevis, 
from  the  port  of  Southampton,  England,  in  1638,  while  tradition  says  that  our 
'  ancestor,  John  Poore,  and  the  above  mentioned  Samuel,  who  settled  in  Newbury, 
Daniel,  who  took  up  his  abode  in  Andover,  and  a  Thomas,  wliom  we  find  to  have  been 
certainly  a  brother  of  Daniel,  and  who  died  in  Andover  without  issue,  were 
all  brothers. 

As  the  name  of  Stephen  Dummer's  wife,  at  the  time  of  the  immigration,  was  Alice, 
we  may  conjecture  that  these  children  were  akin  to  her  and  perhaps  orphans  under 
the  guardianship  of  her  and  her  husband.  Be  this  as  it  maj^  there  seems  enough  to 
warrant  the  hope  that  a  careful  search  among  the  records  of  the  parish  of  Bishopstoke, 
or  of  some  of  the  parishes  in  its  neighborhood,  both  in  Hampshire  and  Wiltshire, 
may  throw  light  upon  the  parentage  of  John  Poore,  and  perhaps  connect  him  with  the 
Ambresbury  family.  And  in  this  connection  it  should  be  remembered  that  the  parish 
of  Andover  lies  in  Hampshire,  not  very  far  from  Bishopstoke,  and  connected  by  an 
easy  road  with  Salisbury,  so  that  the  New  England  pilgrim  to  the  "old  home"  beyond 
the  sea,  while  riding  out  to  Stonehenge,  may  almost  fancy  himself  in  our  own  Essex 
county  as  he  passes  by  a  familiar  looking  guide-post  standing  at  the  cross  road  which 
informs  him  that  Andover  lies  to  the  northeast,  while  the  little  town  of  Amesbury, 
already  mentioned,  lies  but  a  short  distance  to  the  westward. 

The  endeavor  has  been  made  to  render  this  work  authentic  and  complete,  and,  to 
that  end,  the  proofs  as  they  have  come  from  the  printer's  hands  have  been  transmitted 
to  the  various  families  for  inspection  and  revision,  and  it  is  hoped  that  it  will  prove  as 
nearly  correct  as  a  work  of  this  nature  can  be. 
*  The  arrangement  of  families  is  in  a  natural  order,  and  the  various  sizes  and  positions 
of  the  type  indicate  the  different  generations,  rendering  it  easily  understood,  a  system 
which,  although  unique,  Avill  be  found  not  without  utility.  , 

The  table  of  the  first  six  generations  on  page  134,  and  the  compound  triune  index  to 
the  work  will  be  found,  it  is  to  be  hoped,  of  great  value. 

In  conclusion,  the  compiler  is  desirous  of  expressing  his  sincere  gratitude  towards 

those  who  have  assisted  in  the  collecting  of  these  records,  and  his  earnest  hope  that  all 

his  kindred  and  patrons  will  take  as  much  pleasure  in  the  perusal  of  this  work  as  he 

has  taken  in  its  prejjaration.

JOHN  POORE  AND  HIS  FAMILY. 


'OIIN"  POORE,  tlie  patriarch  of  one  stock  of  his  name,  came, 
according  to  Mr.  Coffin  in  his  history  of  Newbnry,  from  "Wilt- 
shire, England,  in  1635,  which  was  the  next  year  after  several 
families  —  wlio  that  year  also  settled  in  IS^ewbnry — came  to 
Ipswich. 

According  to  depositions  on  file  in  the  office  of  the  Essex 
Connty  Court,  he  was  born  about  1615,  consequently  he  was 
about  twenty  years  old  when  he  came  to  this  country. 

After  a  careful  examination  of  the  recoi-ds  of  the  State,  Counties,  Towns 
and  Churches  in  Massachusetts,  we  conclude  that  he  was  the  earliest  of  his 
family  name  who  came  to  America. 

He  settled  upon  the  southerly  side  of  Parker  Piver  in  ISTewbiny,  Massa- 
chusetts, that  part  of  the  town  being  called  the  "Neck."  The  street  leading 
over  Parker  River  to  Rowley  was  laid  out  as  far  as  his  house  through  the 
north  part  of  his  land,  then  it  turned  westward. 

The  lot  east  of  John  Poo  re's  was,  from  generation  to  generation,  occupied 
by  the  Thurston  family.  ISText  east  of  Thurston's  lot,  and  on  the  end  of 
the  Neck,  was  the  homestead  of  the  Plummer  family.  Through  these  es- 
tates is  a  street  extending  by  the  south  side  of  ]Mr.  Poore's  house  and  the 
Thurston  and  Plummer  houses,  to  the  end  of  the  ISTcck.  The  lot  west  of 
Poore's  was  owned  by  the  Ilalc  family;  all  of  these  lots  extend  across 
the  Neck  from  Parker  River  to  the  Marshes,  which  lie  between  this  upland

and  Plumb  Island  River.  He  had  laid  out  to  him  by  Rowley,  in  1661,  about 
thirty  acres  of  upland,  at  a  place  in  that  towu  called  "  The  Island  beyond 
the  Cow  Bridofe  Meadow." 

The  house  which  he  built,  together  with  additions,  is  still  standing,  and 
has  been  owned  by  the  family,  from  father  to  son,  until  this  time  (1878), 
eight  generations  having  been  born  in  it,  the  eighth  and  ninth  generations 
now  residing  there. 

At  times  the  old  mansion  has  been  used  as  an  Inn.  It  is  on  the  ancient 
highway  leading  to  Rowley,  and  about  four  miles  southward  from  Market 
Square,  and  Stations  on  the  Boston  &  Maine  and  Eastern  Railroads  in 
iNewburyport.  * 

By  the.  records  of  the  county  we  find  that  he  was  on  the  jury  in  the 
years  1654,  1658,  1661,  1664,  1665,  1670,  1674,  1678.  He  was  attorney  for 
Daniel  Poore,  of  Andover,  who,  it  is  supposed,  waajii^jbrother  when  said 
Daniel  had  a  cause  against  Jo.  Godfrey,  March  26,  1667,  and  Walter 
"Wright,  March,  1681. 

In  the  Registry  of  Deeds,  at  Salem,  may  be  found  sundry  lists  of  those 
who  took  the  oath  of  fidelity.  The  age  of  each  iJ^ewbury  man  was  given  in 
a  list  for  1678.     On  this  latter,  appears  the  name  of  John  Poore,  aged  63. 

He  was  chosen  by  the  town  to  occupy  various  places  of  trust;  for  in- 
stance, in  1666  and  1669,  he  was  on  the  board  "to  act  the  prudentialls  of 
the  Town."  When  the  seats  in  the  meeting-house  were  assigned  in  1668, 
it  is  recorded  that  "John  Poor,  sen""  to  sit  in  the  fore  seat." 

He  had  land  given  by  the  town  from  time  to  time,  and  bought  other  land ; 
so,  he  owned  in  ITewbury  and  Rowley  probably  over  a  hundred  acres;  but, 
the  supposition  is  that  it  was  conveyed  to  his  sons  before  his  decease,  as 
we  find  the  deeds  of  some  of  it  on  record,  viz. :  to  his  sons  John  and 
Henry,  dated  not  long  before  his  decease.  ' 

By  an  inventory  of  his  personal  estate  we  find  the  date  of  his  decease 
to  be  "  about "  IS'ovember  21, 1684.  Tradition  says  that  he  was  out  hunting, 
and  losing  his  way,  perished  by  cold  and  hunger  in  the  woods  near  An- 
dover. On  file  in  the  ofiice  of  Clerk  of  the  Coui-ts  in  Essex  County, 
Volume  XLIII,  page  73,  in  the  report  of  the  jury  of  inquest,  summoned  to 
inquire  into  the  cause  of  his  death,  dated  Kov.  24th,  in  the  year  of  our  Lord 


MEMOIR.  Y 

1684,  wc  find  (lie  followinj^  verdict:  — "AVe  judge  tliat  being  in  the  woods 
and  following  his  game,  he  Avas  bewildered,  and  lost  liimself,  and  in  his  pur- 
suit plucked  off  his  clothes,  and  scattered  them  some  good  distance,  one 
part  from  another  till  he  had  left  nothing  on  save  his  wastcoat  and  drawers, 
and  breeches  and  hose  and  shoocs." 

We  find  no  will  on  record;  but,  it  seems  he  had  made  a  verbal  disposition 
of  some  of  his  estate.  Among  the  papers  on  file  in  the  Probate  Office  it  is 
stated  that  before  the  balance  of  his  estate  was  divided  among  the  heirs, 
£30  was  "  to  be  abated  for  debts  &  legacyes." 

Wc  discover  on  the  back  of  an  account  of  the  Administrators,  rendered 
November  26,  1697,  that  his  heirs  among  whom  his  estate  was  divided  were 
the  widow  and  seven  children,  viz. :  John  Poor,  the  eldest  son  Henry,  Jo- 
seph, Hannah  Ilsly,  Sarah,  Mary  Clark,  Lydia  Titcum  and  Abigail  Ilsly. 

The  name  of  his  wife,  by  whom  he  had  his  children,  was  Sarah ;  and  that 
appears  as  the  name  of  his  widow,  after  his  decease;  and  widow  Sarah 
Poore  died  Dec.  3,  1702.  But  we  are  luiable  to  give  the  maternal  ancestry 
of  his  children.

1700  ;  was  a  weaver ;  also  bought  and  sold  lands,  and  owned  lands  iu  Newbury,  Salis-

and  Mary  Butler,  who  was  born  in  ISTewbury  October  23, 1758.     They 
resided  in  Newburyport,  until  after  the  birth  of  her  fifth  child,  when  they 


rOSTERITT   OF    JONATHAN''',  OF   NKWBUIIY.  If) 

removed  to  Camirton,  N.  II.,  where  her  father  had  one  liundred  acres  of 
hind,  the  use  of  which  he  gave  to  liis  daughter  dunng  her  fife;  and  after 
her  decease,  to  her  chikh'en.  Here,  their  other  chikh-en  were  horn.  During 
the  first  of  their  residence  in  Campton,  they  occupied  a  ])lace  in  the  south- 
ernniost  part  of  the  town;  and  previously  to  tlie  marriage  of  their  daugl)ter 
Lydia  II.,  they  had  removed  ahout  four  mik^s  to  the  northward,  and  were 
occupying  hmd  that  belonged  to  the  husband  of  their  daughter  Mary,  south 
and  near  to  the  residence  of  Mrs.  AVillcy.  Ilei-e,  on  the  morning  of  Mai-ch 
9,  183G,  Mr.  Butler,  while  at  the  breakfast  table,  was  taken  with  an  apo- 
j)lectic  fit,  and  immediately  expired. 

After  the  decease  of  her  husband,  Mrs.  Butler  went  to  live  with  the  fam- 
ily of  her  daughter  Mary.  A  few  months  after  this,  she  was  stricken  with 
paralysis,  from  the  efiects  of  Avhich  she  never  recovered.  I^ot  long  after- 
Avards  she  was  removed  to  the  home  of  hei-  daughter,  Lydia,  where  she  lived 
over  a  year,  being  then  removed  into  the  family  of  her  daughtei"  Betsey,  iii 
which  she  ended  her  long  and  useful  life  on  March  22,  1843.  "We  are  in- 
formed by  her  grandchildren,  that  up  to  the  age  of  the  common  lot  of  man, 
she  was  possessed  of  uncommon  abilities,  and  was  truly  a  helpmeet  to  her 
husband. 

Before  his  marriage  to  the  subject  of  our  sketch,  Mr.  Butler  had  a  daugh- 
ter Fanny,  who  was  born  on  the  23d  of  October,  1783.  "We  have  been 
unable  to  learn  the  mother's  maiden  name,  but  have  understood  that  she  had 
previously  been  married  to  a  seaman  by  the  name  of  Newman.  This 
daughter  married  Jonathan,  son  of  Thomas  and  Dorothy  (Blaisdell)  Bart- 
lett,  born  at  Campton,  about  1782 ;  his  ancestors,  however,  had  lived  on  the 
Merrimack,  near  its  mouth,  from  the  early  settlement  of  the  country.  lie 
was  a  kin  to  Josiah  Bartlett,  one  of  the  signers  of  the  Declaration  of  Inde- 
pendence. 

Fanny's  posterity  consists  of  fourteen  children,  about  three  dozen  grand- 
children, and  at  this  time  her  great-grand-children  numl^er  about  the  same 
as  her  children.  They  are  the  fruit  of  the  following  eight  children,  viz. :

THE    JOHN    PC)  ORE    MANSION. 

Occupied  by  him  and  eiglit  consecutive  generations,  in  one  line  of  his  descendants  about  240  years  ;  in  which  have 
been  born  about  thiee  score  of  ihe  ancient  patriarch's  progeny.  The  junior  Samuel's  son  Alfred  with  his  two  sons 
John  Lawrence  and  Alfred  Wesley,  of  the  last  two  generations,  reside  there  in  1S81. 

In  the  beginning  it  consisted  of  one  square  room  on  the  ground  and  chamber  over  it,  wuh  chimney  on  the  eastern 
end,  without  at  first  any  finish  inside.  Jonathan,  son  of  John  and  grandson  of  the  progenitor,  built  the  eastern  end 
of  the  main  part  and  finished  the  inside  of  the  whole  house.  Subsequently  the  lean-to  was  added  to  the  back  side. 
Lastly  the  singular  projection  at  the  south  western  corner  w.is  .annexed  by  John  of  the  fourth  generation,  who  kept 
the  ferry  over  the  river  Parker,  which  flows  by  the  north  end  of  the  farm,  and  about  sixty  or  eighty  rods  from  this 
house,  and  perhaps  this  room  was  where  he  took  toll,  and  it  may  be  this  John's  son  Jonath.an  used  it  for  his  office 
etc.,  when  he  was  an  inn-keeper,  (after  his  neighbor  Hale  gave  up  the  business,)  this  being  the  half-way  house  between 
Newburyport  and  Rowley — handy  for  freight  teamsters  and  others  on  the  highway  between  the  East  and  Boston,  to 
drop  in  and  "  wet  their  whistle  "  in  dusty  summer  or  "  warm  up  "  in  cold  winter.  .So  when  Reed  of  Newburyport 
photographed  it,  the  old  tavern  sign  was  erected  for  the  occasion,  but  the  last  four  generations  have  not  used  it,  as 
about  the  time  of  the  decease  of  Jonathan  the  Newburyport  and  Boston  turnpike  was  built,  and  drew  travel  from 
this  way.

^AISTIEL*,  born  in  Newbury,  Mass.,  March  13,  1716.  Settled  in  Haver- 
hill, Mass.,  on  land  given  by  his  father — Avherc  his  great-grandson, 
Jeremiah  T.  Poor,  in  1878,  owns  and  occupies.  It  is  in  that  part  of 
old  Haverhill  which  fell  into  the  State  of  New  Hampshire,  when  the  present 
line  of  the  state,  which  was  located  three  miles  from  the  Merrimack  river  in 
1741,  was  established.  That  territory  being  called  Haverhill  District  for  a 
while,  then  incorporated  by  the  name  of  Plaistow,  and  in  1765,  that  part  of 
the  town  was  incorporated  by  the  name  of  Atkinson,  and  this  faiTi  is  very 
near  the  south  line;  next  to  said  Haverhill,  which  in  1869  Avas  incoi-porated 
a  city. 

He  bnilt  his  house  about  a  dozen  rods  north  of  the  street  which  runs  from 
the  church  in  the  old  north  paiish  of  Haverhill,  by  the  south  side  of  his 
farm,  over  Providence  Hill  to  old  Londonderry;  and  near  the  east  side  of 
the  street  which  extends  from  said  Londonderry  street,  to  the  church  in 
Atkinson. 

Ilis  brother  John  commenced  clearing  off  the  old  forest  in  order  to  settle 
here,  but  it  was  concluded  that  he  should  remain  with  his  father;  so  Daniel 
ventured  to  settle  upon  this  wild  land,  was  an  enterprising  man;  an  offi- 
cer in  the  militia,  etc.  He  settled  most  of  his  sons  on  farms,  but  let  his 
youngest  son  have  the  advantage  of  being  graduated  at  College. 

Besides  the  homestead  given  him  by  his  father,  he  owned  land  adjoining, 
and  in  other  localities.  The  first  found  on  record  is  the  Half-moon  meadow, 
bonght  of  James  White;  next,  he  purchased  of  Thomas  Pope,  jr.,  in  1750, 
forty -four  acres;  of  Joseph  Page,  in  1752,  ten  acres;  and  about  the  same

nine  and  one-half  acres;  of  Jonathan  Clements  in  1764,  fifty-two  acres  on

land;  of  Jonathan  Sawyer  in  1771,  about  six  and  five-eighths  acres,  situated

road,  and  deeded  it  back  in  1763 ;  and  of  Stephen  Whitticker  for  forty-two 
acres  with  mills  on  Providence  Brook  in  1765,  and  deeded  it  back  in  1767. 
And,  he  conveyed  away  to  Eben  Johnson  in  1757,  fifty-five  acres;  to  his 
son  Daniel  Poore  in  1771,  fourteen  acres  of  the  Jonathan  Clement  land  on 
Chester  road,  and  in  1781,  forty  acres  more;  to  sou  Jonathan  Poore  in  1781, 
forty  acres  more  of  the  Clement  land,  and  parcels  of  twenty-three  acres,

By  his  first  wife  he  had  his  children.  On  the  21th  of  Feb.,  1782,  he  married

his  grandson  John  (in  1878)  resides.  The  next  early  settlements  above 
Mr.  Bailey's  were  upon  Sweet  Hill,  viz. :  on  the  south  side  of  the  street,  by 
Humphrey  Bailey  from  Bradford,  who  in  a  few  years  after  removed  to 
Hopkinton,  N.  H.,  and  some  years  after  it  was  bought  by  Jedediah  Petten- 
gill;  on  the  north  side  by  John  Stewart  (as  mentioned  on  a  page  above), 
which  loea.  Joseph  Webster  bought  a  few  years  after  the  Stewarts  had  left 
it,  and  there  raised  his  large  family. 

This  farm  where  Mr.  Poore  resided  as  long  as  he  lived,  is  the  westerly  part 
of  what  said  Stewart  owned,  and  the  homestead  of  Dea.  John  Smith,  which 
he  purchased  May  22,  1738— same  day  said  Benj.  Wheeler  bought  on 
the  west  side  of  it.  Said  Stewart,  Smith  and  Wheeler  came  up  from  the 
upper  part  of  Kowley,  which  is  now  Georgetown.  The  other  residences  on 
the  street  are  more  modern,  viz.:  one  owned  by  Gilman  Stickney  was 
brought  on  to  that  place  about  1840,  and  afterward  owned  some  years  by 
Jesse  Atwood.  The  place  at  the  entrance  of  the  old  Rose  Meadow  Way 
was  owned  by  above  said  Dea.  Smith,  and  given  to  his  son  John,  who  left 
it  to  his  nephew,  Capt.  Jesse,  son  of  Thomas  Smith,  who  has  of  late  sold 
out,  and  built  near  the  church.  The  cottage  in  the  valley  between  his  house 
and  the  Pettengill  places,  was  built  about  1860,  by  Capt.  Smith,  to  accom- 
modate his  hired  servants.  Only  the  Ebenezer  Bailey  place  remains  in  the 
family  of  the  original  settlers  on  this  street,  from  Atwood's  corner  on 
Broadway,  to  the  corner  west  of  the 

Spicket  River,  a  distance  of  about  three  ^^/^^tCi^^/^   'f^v;:''^^^ 

miles.     His  signature.  ^^y 

Besides  being  a  farmer,  he  was  a 
cordwainer,  and  taught  all  his  sons  the  same  trade.  He  was  very  quiet  in 
all  his  actions  during  life.  His  complexion  light,  with  blue  eyes,  rather 
below  medium  in  stature,  but  passed  a  satisfactory  examination  when  he 
Avas  called  to  go  into  the  army,  in  the  war  of  1812-5,  and  Avent  to  Ports- 
mouth, N.  H.,  and  stayed  awhile  to  guard  that  port. 


POSTKIUTY   OF   DANlEl/,  OF    ATKINSOlSr.  99 

He  marrifd  Apr.  1(3,  1817,  a  cousin  to  John  Pettengill,  Inisljand  of  his 
cklewt  sister's  danghter,  Sally,  daughter  of  AVoodbridge  and  Xabljy  (Lowell) 
Bailey,  b.  on  Broadway,  in  the  easterly  part  of  Ayers  Village,  in  Haverhill, 
about  three-quarters  of  a  mile  south  of  their  residence — see  her  i)edigree, 
page  115  of  our  Historic-Genealogical  Researches.  He  deceased  July  19, 
18-17,  and  she  remains  (Jan.  27,  1879)  on  this  place.     Children: 

ALFRED ^  born  Feb.  27,  1818;  having  never  married,  he  now  calls  his 
birthplace  home  —  which  is  near  Ayers  Village,  a  branch  jx^st-ollice  in 
Haverhill;  but,  as  his  opportunity  of  obtaining  an  education  was  limitt'd 
while  in  his  teens  to  about  ten  weeks  in  the  yearly  winter  seasons,  at  No.  9 
District  School  in  that  town,  he  was  ])ermitted  to  attend  Atkinson  xVcademy 
awhile  (during  the  last  term  John  Kelly,  Esq.  Avas  its  Preceptor),  and 
thereby  having  obtained  a  lai-ger  desire  for  a  more  liberal  education ;  he  has 
since  been  a  wayfarer  much  of  the  time.  He  left  home  for  the  first  time 
to  be  gone  over  the  Sabbath,  in  the  early  jiart  of  181:0,  and  attended  the 
"Bradford  Teachei's'  Seminary,"  Avhich  was  opened  the  4th  of  Dec,  the 
previous  year,  by  Benj.  Greenleaf,  Esq.  (a  native  of  said  School  District 
No.  9),  the  author  of  a  series  of  mathematics,  and  foi-mer  Principal  of 
Bradford  Academy;  while  in  that  school  he  went  over  various  branches  of 
education,  becoming  much  interested  in  the  natural  sciences,  and,  in  order 
to  inform  himself  more  fully  in  Anatomy  and  Phj^siology,  obtained 
access  to  the  library  of  George  Cogswell,  M.D.  (a  native  of  the  town  where 
said  Alfred's  father  was  born),  who  then  had  several  students  under  instruc- 
tion in  his  profession,  and  became  so  intei-estcd  that  he  attended  the 
course  of  lectures  in  the  medical  dei)artment  of  Daitmouth  College,  in  181.j, 
and  while  there  was  favored  with  the  exti-a  attention  given  to  botany  (one 
of  his  favoi-ite  studies)  by  Prof.  Phelps,  wdao  took  the  class  into  the  fields, 
Avhere  the  plants  grew  —  the  same  method  of  gaining  knowledge  in  different 
departments  of  Natural  History  adopted  by  the  Essex  Institute,  of  Salem, 
]\Iass.  The  Institute  visit  aboiit  half  a  dozen  places  during  the  warm 
season  each  year,  and  print  their  jDroceedings  on  those  excursions  in 
their  monthly  Bulletin. 

In  184(3  he  commenced  an  inquiry  respecting  his  ancestry,  and  step  by 
step  obtained  the  direct  line  on  his  paternal  and  maternal  side  back  to  the 
first  settler  in  America.  Next  came  a  desire  to  obtain  all  the  descendants 
of  each  of  those  two  ancestors,  and  afterward  to  trace  l)ack  to  the  first  settle- 
ment in  this  country  the  lines  of  his  two  grandmothers,  and  all  his  great- 
grandmothers,  and  by  so  doing  he  has  found,  now,  that  he  is  akin  to  a  vast 
number  of  the  families  bearing  the  names  of  the  early  settlers  of  Newbury 
and  Rowley,  and  their  descendants  in  other  towns  hi  Merrimack  Valley. 


100  JOHN    POOEE   AND   HIS   FAMILY. 

About  the  middle  of  Jan.,  1847,  when  in  the  East  Parish  of  Bradford 
(incorporated  in  1850  by  the  name  of  Groveland),  he  met  Peter  Parker  (a 
brother  of  Dr.  Cogswell's  first  wife)  at  his  variety  goods  store  on  the 
corner  by  the  church  in  that  parish,  who  informed  him  that  his  (Peter's) 
employee  Eben  Jaques  had  suddenly  deceased  a  few  days  previous,  and 
asked  said  Alfred  if  he  would  come  down  and  assist  him  in  his  business 
for  awhile.  He  complied,  and  although  at  the  time  he  did  not  expect  to 
continue  with  him,  remaiued  there  about  ten  years,  and  during  the  time 
boarded  in  the  family  of  Dea.  Ira  and  Julia  (Poore)  Hopkinson  ■ — •  Mrs. 
Hopkinson,  as  he  afterward  learned,  being  akin  to  him. 

While  in  Groveland,  he  collected  materials  for  a  minute  history  of  the 
place,  including  a  genealogy  of  the  fiunilies  who  have  resided  there  since 
the  town  of  Bradford  was  settled. 

After  leaving  Groveland  he  continued  his  researches  in  regard  to  the 
history  and  genealogy  of  families  in  Bradford,  Boxford,  and  other  towns 
adjoining,  and  resided  in  the  west  part  of  Andover  some  months  in  1864. 

The  last  day  of  Jan.,  1865,  he  left  home  to  spend  a  few  weeks  in  Salem, 
Mass  ,  in  order  to  examine  the  Essex  County  records  found  in  offices  in  the 
stone  building  built  in  1841,  on  the  corner  of  Federal  and  Washington 
Streets,  at  the  northern  end  of  the  tunnel  of  the  Eastern  Railroad,  inider  the 
last-mentioned  street;  but  finding  such  an  extensive  opportunity  to  acquire 
information  from  these  records,  and  the  library  of  the  Essex  Institute  —  of 
which  institution  he  has  made  himself  a  life-member,  and  by  associating  with 
so  many  there  found,  who  are  interested  in  historical  and  genealogical  ro 
searches  and  in  scientific  investigations,  he  has  remained  in  the  quiet  old 
city  until  Feb.  19,  1879,  and  has,  for  most  of  the  time,  since  returning  from 
his  mother's,  Thanksgiving  time  in  1865,  lodged  on  the  premises  of 
Matthew  Adams  Stickney,  on  the  southwesterly  side  of  Boston  Street,  not 
far  from  the  big  Elm  tree  standing  in  the  street  about  midway  betAveen  "  the 
Square  "  in  Peabody,  and  the  above  said  record  building;  and  spent  his  days 
in  studying  the  records  in  the  Court  House.  But  to  complete  his  gene- 
alogies he  has  had  occasion  to  visit  all  the  towns  in  Essex  County,  and  in  the 
southern  pai't  of  Rockingham  County,  and  to  make  tours  in  other  parts  of 
Mass.,  ]^ew  Hampshire,  and  other  states,  to  examine  records  of  counties, 
towns,  churches,  and  families;  also  during  this  time  he  has  visited  Boston 
on  several  three  months'  Eastern  Railroad  tickets,  to  search  the  State 
Archives  and  other  places  in  and  about  the  city,  doing  his  best  that  this 
genealogy  might  be  as  nearly  perfect  as  possible.

EEMRY,  THE  SECOND  SON  OF  THE  PATFJAECH. 

i'ENRY^,  bom  December  13,  1650;  settled  at  first  on  the  south  border 
of  Ncwbui'y,  and  we  find  on  the  records  of  that  town  the  births  of 
seven  of  his  eleven  children.  The  land  which  he  occupied  was  partly 
in  the  adjoining  town  of  Rowley,  and  was  given  to  him  by  his  father 
in  1678,  and  it  was  about  one  mile  in  a  south-westerly  direction  from  his 
birth  place.  He  sold  the  place  to  his  brother  Joseph  Poore  in  1693,  and  in 
the  same  year  bought  of  John  Pearson  another  one  in  the  west  jDart  of 
Rowley  where  his  other  children  were  born,  and  which  some  of  his  descend- 
ants in  1879  occupy.  This  land  is  not  so  productive  as  that  on  Newbury 
Neck,  but  clearer  from  boulders,  and  much  easier  to  till,  and  it  seems  to 
have  been  a  healthy  place  for  him;  for  he  lived  to  be  over  ninety  years  of  age. 
Among  his  transactions  in  real  estate,  and  found  on  record,  were,  besides 
the  sale  of  his  first  homestead  and  purchase  of  his  last  place,  he  sold  a  rate 
lot  in  Newbury  to  Jonathan  and  Nathan  "VVheelcr  in  1702;  two  acres  in 
Rowley  to  Joseph  Boynton,  senior,  m  1714 ;  about  five  acres  in  Rowley  to 
Acquilla  Jewett  in  1724;  two  lots  in  Rowley  to  Daniel  Thurston  of  New- 
bury in  1726;  a  river  lot  in  Newbury  to  Samuel  and  Elcazer  Pcirce  of  New- 
bury in  1737 ;  and  deeded  to  his  son  Samuel  his  real  estate  January  14,  1728-9, 
including  rights  that  should  come  to  him  by  virtue  of  his  *'  going  to  ye 
Narraganset  War;"  and  gave  to  his  son  Benjamin  forty  acres  November 
4,  1829 — which  he  acknowledged  March  27,  1740-1.  And  among  family 
papers  not  in  Registry  of  Deeds,  we  find  he  bought  a  one  and  one-quarter 
acre  lot  of  Thomas  Nelson  in  1687;  and  nine  and  one-half  acres  of  Ben- 
jamin Pearson,  January  15,  1723—4. 

Among  his  public  acts  we  observe  that  in  the  time  of  King  Phillip's  war 
he  was  pressed  into  the  Army  December  6,  1675;  and,  ii  may  be  supposed 
by  the  reading  of  the  deed  to  son  Samuel,  that  he  there  did  service  for  his 
country,  lie  was  made  a  Freeman  March  7,  1680-1 ;  was  chosen  at  various 
times  one  of  the  Tything  men  in  Rowley,  and  filled  oflSces  that  were  neces- 
sary foi"  the  locality  where  he  resided;  Avas  overseer  of  the  will  of  Daniel 
Thurston,  and  at  other  times  assisted  in  settling  estates  of  deceased  persons.

Among  the  ancient  papers  which  have  been  handed  down  in  tlie  family 
from  generation  to  generation,  we  find  a  bond  of  his  sons  Benjamin  and 
and  Samuel,  dated  IN^ovember  5,  1737,  in  which  they  agree  that  yearly,  Ben- 
jamin will  half  the  time,  and  that  Samuel  will  the  other  half  keep  their 
father  during  the  remainder  of  his  natural  life.  And  a  will  made  by  him 
April  2,  1741,  in  which  he  names  his  son  Benjamin  who  was  to  have  the 
easterly  part  of  his  living;  son  Samuel  who  was  to  have  all  the  rest  of  his 
real  estate  and  be  executor  of  the  will;  daughters  Abigail,  Mary,  Hannah, 
Sarah,  Elizabeth  and  Lydia, — the  latter  we  may  suppose  was  the  widow  of 
his  son  Jeremiah  who  had  deceased;  and  grandson  David  Poore,  who,  wo 
suppose,  was  the  son  of  Henry,  who  had  deceased.  But  as  there  is  no 
record  of  the  settlement  of  his  estate  in  the  Registry  of  Probate,  we  suppose 
the  family  settled  it  privately.  We  here 
give  a  facsimile  of  his  signature  to  a  re-  y/^ 

ceipt  which  he  and  his  wife  gave  to  her  '^  ^^   ■ii/  ^J^ 

brother    Thomas    Hale,   for   what    they 
received  of  her  father's  estate  dated  July  21,  1698. 

He  married  Sept.  12,  1679,  Abigail,  daughter  of  Thomas  Hale,  jr.,  born  in 
ISTewbury,  Apr.  8,  1662,  who  died  it -seems,  some  time  previous  to  1729,  as 
there  is  no  mention  of  her  in  the  deed  to  son  Samuel  that  year.  Her  father 
was  son  of  Thomas  and  Thomasin  Hale,  and  born  in  England  about  1633, 
and  her  mother  Mary,  a  daughter  of  Richard  and  Alice  (Bosworth)  Hutchin- 
son, baptized  in  ^N'orth  Mushham,  Co.  jS"otts,  England,  Dec.  28,  1630.  Mrs. 
Poore  therefore  was  a  cousin  to  the  father  of  Rebecca,  wife  of  his  nephew 
Jonathan  Poore.     Children: 

1.  Abigail,  I3.  Sept.  9,  1680,  whose  intention  of  maiTii\ge  to  John  Fislve,  was  Dec.  22,  1710, 

and  previous  to  Apr.  15,  1746,  had  tnanied  for  her  second  husband  Thomas  Holt  of 
Andovcr,  but  probably  she  left  no  posterity. 

2.  Henry,  born  January  31,  1681  ;  married  Mary  Holmes.     See  page  138. 

3.  Jeremiah,  b.  Jan.  10,  1683  ;  m.  Apr.  27,  1709,  Lydia,  a  daughter  of  Peter  Cheney,  and 

died  a  young  man,  as  his  widow  liad  married  previous  to  Dec.  5,  1738,  Samuel  Plum- 
mer,  and  perhaps  out-lived  him  and  died  very  aged,  as  we  are  led  to  suppose  by  what 
may  be  learned  from  papers  in  the  famil}^ 

4.  Mary,  born  April  10,  1686,  who  died  in  infancy. 


niS   SON   ITENRT*.  137 

5.  Mary,  b.  Sept.  20,  1C87;  in.  June  2,  1713,  Abiali.iin  Thurley,  and  perhaps  out-lived  liiiii, 

and  before  1737  married  a  man  by  tiic  name  of  Jlorrison.  Slie  perhaps  Iiad  a  daughter 
Mary  wlio  m.  a  Joseph  Woodman  before  173G  ;  but  we  fmd  no  births  of  children  on 
tlie  records  of  either  Rowley  or  Newbury,  or  settlement  of  Mr.  TIiurle3''s  estate  in 
Essex  Count}-,  so  we  presume  she  had  only  one  child. 

6.  Hannah,  b.  July  19,  1692  ;  m.  (1)  Sept.  30,  1714,  Samuel,  the  youngest  son  of  John  and 

Mary  (I'oore)  Noyes,  b.  in  Newburj',  Essex  Co.,  Mass.,  Feb.  5,  1C92,  and  died  iu 
Abington,  Plymouth  Co.,  Mass.  (where  he  and  his  elder  brother  Nichol.as  settled)  Nov. 
6,  1729,  his  father  John  was  the  eldest  son  of  Dea.  Nicholas  and  Sarah  (Cutting) 
Noyes,  of  Newbury,  from  whom  descended  the  other  Noyeses,  who  have  uitcrniarried 
with  other  branches  of  the  family-  mentioned  on  page  eightj'-tbrce,  etc.     His  mother 
Mary,  no  doubt,  was  of  the  stock  of  Daniel  Poore,  who  settled  in  Andover.     After 
Mr.  Noyes  deceased,  and  previous  to  Oct.  8,  1742,  she  m.  (2)  Jacob  Reed,  probably  of 
Abington.     Several  of  her  posterity'  by  the  name  of  Noyes,  still  reside  in  Abington, 
and  we  learn  from  the  recorils  of  that  town  that  she  had  by  Mr.  Noyes :

mentions  last  in  his  will  daughter  Lydia,  but  we  are  inclined  to  suppose  he  meant  his 
son  Jeremiah's  widow. 


HEMY',  THE  SECOM  CHILD  OP  HE1JRY=  (p.  135),  JOHN'. 

jENRY^,  born  in  Newbury,  January  31,  1681,  being  the  second  child 
of  his  parents;  married  probably  in  the  spring  of  1703,  to  a  Mary 
i^  Hohnes,  of  Newbury,  as  Ave  find  a  record  of  their  intention  of  mar- 
riage in  both  Rowley  and  Newbury,  dated  April  6, 1703.  Probably  she  was 
a  widow,  and  a  daughter  of  Peter  Cheney,  for  we  find  among  the  family 
papers  a  receipt  of  said  Cheney,  dated  August  11,  1710,  in  which  he  called 
Henry  Poor  his  son;  and  the  receipt  was  for  keeping  a  child  of  his  said  son 
a  considerable  time.  So,  taking  into  consideration  the  above  circumstance, 
we  conclude  that  Henry  died  about  the  time  his  third  child  was  born.  His 
children  were: 

1.  Joshua,  b.  in  Eowley,  Mar.  14,  1703-4  ;  who  no  doubt  died  very  young. 

2.  Daniel,  b.  in  Rowley,  Nov.  12,  1706  ;  who,  we  suppose,  also  died  young. 
3.-  David,  b.  about  1708  ;  whose  wife  was  Tamzeu  in  1740.

Gershom  Tenney,  of  Boston,  to  learn  the  trade  of  tailor,  and  to  serve

bis  master  five  years;  aiuT  Aug.  28,  1728,  was  in  Ivowloy,  when  lie  dated  a 
receipt  he  then  gave  his  grandfather  Poore,  for  personal  jjiopcrty  he  received 
of  his  father's  estate;  and  in  1744  gave  receipt  to  his  uncles,  Benjamin  and 
Samuel  Poore,  for  all  demands  he  had  against  them  for  his  interest  in  the 
estates  of  his  father  Henry,  and  grandfather  Henry  Poore,  at  which  time  he 
was  of  Sudbury,  Middlesex   County,  Mass.,   and    called    himself  a  tailor. 

"While  in  Middlesex  County,  and  living  in 
Sudbury,  he  bought  of  B.  Parmenter,  a  house         /Jf  ^vtv-zJy  /^^'^'T^^'C-. 
and  forty   acres   of  land,  situated   upon   the  ^ 

wegt  side  of  Sudbury  River,  in  the  town  of  Sudbury,  Aug.  1,  1740.  Sold 
meadow  to  the  manufiicturing  company  (one  of  the  members  of  the 
company  then  being  Eobert  Hale,  of  Beverly),  in  1740  and  1742.  Sold  to 
P,  Goodenow  a  house  and  land  on  the  west  side  of  the  liver  in  1741; 
to  M.  Maynard,  west  meadow  on  the  west  side  of  the  river  in  1741 ;  to  J. 
Carter  in  1741;  to  T.  Bent  in  1742  and  1743;  to  P.  GJoodenow  and  F.  Par- 
menter in  1745;  and  to  D.  Goodenow  in  Dec.  17ol.  During  this  period 
from  1740  to  1751,  his  wife's  name  was  Tamzen,  or  Tamasin.  He  moved  to 
"Winchendon,  Mass.,  about  1754,  when  his  son  David  was  about  14  or  10 
years  of  age;  the  place  where  he  lived,  we  are  informed,  is  in  the  north- 
western section  of  the  town,  where  Albert  Mann  resides  in  1878.  The  name 
and  parentage  of  the  mother  of  his  children  are  as  yet  unknown;  jierhaps 
she  was  the  Tamasin  who  was  living  with  him  in  Sudbury  from  1740  to  1751. 
We  understand  that  he  had  two  or  more  children,     viz. : 

1.  David,  who  tradition  says  was  born  about  1740,  and  married  Jane  Martin. 

2.  Benjamin,  wlio  perhaps  was  the  one  who  was  residini^  in  New  Salem,  in  llic  western  pait  of 

Massacliusetts,  about  1770  ;  but  upon  applying  to  the  elcrk  ol"  that  town  was  inlbrnied 
that  the  records  of  the  place  were  burnt  a  few  years  since,  so  tiiat  we  liavc  not  any 
records  from  that  place.  We  hear  from  tradition  that  he  settled  somewhere  in  Ver- 
mont, perhaps  he  went  thence  from  New  Salom.  I'robably  he  had  no  sons,  for  we 
have  not  discovered  any  by  the  name  who  trace  their  line  back  to  him.

^  \       teen  years,  left  with  his  parents  to  reside  in  Winchendon,  Mass.,  where

he  settled,  and  his  eight  children  were  born  there.  In  the  time  of  the  American 
Revolution  he  Avas  a  brave  soldier;  continuing  in  the  Army  most  of  the 
time  during  the  war,  and  was  an  officer  in  a  company;  at  one  time  was  a 
prisoner  on  Long  Island,  where  he  was  confined  about  three  years;  but  lived 
to  be  over  threescore  and  ten  years  of  age,  when  he  died  about  the  latter 
part  of  1816.  He  m.  (1)  Miss  Jane  Martin,  by  whom  he  had  his  children. 
She  died  of  a  cancer  in  Winchendon,  July  27,  1803;  m.  (2)  a  widow,  Ellen 
Mathews,  Oct.  7,  1803.     Children: 

1.  William,  b.  Feb.  27,  1763  ;  m.  Elizabeth  Blanuhard  and  a  widow  Nurse. 

2.  Daniel,  whose  intention  of  marriage  to  Polly  Martin,  of  Westminster,  was  recorded    IJ|C. 

1,  1798;  resided  in  Winchendon,  Mass.,  where  eight  children  were  born;  and  abont 
1825,  we  understand  he  left  that  place,  and  some  say  that  he  resided  awhile  in  Keene, 
N.  H.,  or  in  that  vicinit}-,  and  afterward  removed  over  into  Vermont,  and  lived  some- 
where on  the  east  side  of  the  Green  mountains,  but  wc  have  not  been  able  to  find  his 
descendants.  His  children  were  : 
1.   Joseph,  b.  Dec.  15,  1799.     II.   Mary,  b.  Feb.  1,  1801.     HI.    Daniel,  b.  Nov.  13,  1803.     IV.    Plicbe,

3.  Luther,  m.  Lydia  Smith. 

4.  David,  who  probably  never  married  ;  but  when  considerably  advanced  in  life  joined  a  family 

of  shakers  in  Ohio. 

5.  Hannah,  m.  John  Hayward. 

6.  Lucy,  m.  an  Ellis ;  and  we  are  informed  that  they  lived  in  Broom,  N.  Y.,  and  perhaps  re- 

moved afterward  West,  as  far  as  Ohio ;  before  they  deceased,  we  hear  that  she  had 
sons  and  daughters. 

7.  Jane,  m.  Benjamin  Berry,  and  we  hear  settled  in  Roylston,  Mass.,  and  perhaps  she  had 

about  one  and  a  half  dozen  children. 

8.  Prudence,  who  was  not  capable  of  self  care,  died  in  Springfield,  Vt.,  unm.

WILLIAM «,  born  in  Winchendon,  Mass.,  February  27,  1763,  was  the 
first  child  of  his  parents;  married  (1)  in  1792,  Elizabeth,  a  daughter 
of  Benjamin  Blanchard,  in  Rutland,  Yt.  their  first  child  was  born  in  the 
west  part  of  that  town;  removed  to  the  western  part  of  l^ew  York  state, 
and  resided  in  Avon,  Livingstone  County,  until  all  but  their  last  child  was 
born,  and  returned  to  Rutland,  where  she  died  Feb.  3,  1813,  which  was  a 
few  days  after  their  eldest  daughter's  decease  of  the  prevailing  epidemic. 
Consequently  he  broke  up  housekeeping,  and  his  other  children  —  says  his

son  Joshua,  were  early  thrown  out  of  then"  nest,  and  began  to  scatter;  two 
of  the  six  sons  iu  tlicu-  youth  became  preachers  of  the  gospel,  and  the  other 
four  went  to  reside  in  "Chatauqua"  County,  N.  Y.;  finding  the  climate  too

south  of  Cleveland,  and  their  posterity  now  reside  there  and  in  other  places 
in  the  Western  states. 

Mr.  Poore,  after  his  wife  died,  went  to  visit  his  father  in  the  place  of  his 
birth;  became  acquainted  with  his  stepmother's  widowed  daughter,  Mrs. 
Sally  Nourse,  had  recorded  on  the  town  recoixls  his  intention  of  marriage 
to  her  Oct.  22,  1813;  in  due  time  they  were  married  and  undertook  to  take 
care  of  their  aged  parents,  which  they  did  to  mutual  satisfaction  of  all,  and 
he  died  in  the  town  of  his  birth  Sept.  5,  1830.     His  children  were: 

HANNAH^,  born  January  1,  1793;  died  unmarried  February  3,  1813. 

AliANSON ',  born  January  20, 1796;  who  died  in  Hastings,  Dekota  Co., 
Minnesota,  about  1878;  had  children  —  one,  as  we  understand,  named 
Edwin,  who,  they  say,  resides  in  1879  in  said  Hastings. 

JOSHUA',  born  in  Avon,  N.  Y.,  Dec.  21, 1797;  married  (1)  October  11, 
1824,  Kancy,  daughter  and  sixth  child  of  Dea.  George  and  Abigail  (Ray- 
mond) Coffin,  b.  in  Winchendon,  Mass.,  May  12,  1802;  by  whom  he  had  his 
children.  She  died  at  Saratoga  Sjn-ings,  jS".  Y.,  March,  1839;  m.  (2)  June, 
1840,  Miss  Hannah,  dan.  of  Isaac  Mark,  who  died  Apr.  9, 1875.  Mr.  Poore 
has  met  with  many  afflictions;  but,  he  informs  us  that  he  received  the  evi- 
dence of  his  acceptance  with  God  when  about  twelve  years  of  age,  no 
doubt,  through  the  instrumentality  of  his  pioits  mother.  Circumstances  led 
him  to  join  the  Methodist  Episcopal  branch  of  the  church  June,  23,  1823; 
and  he  joined  the  New  York  conference  May  9,  1825;  that  conference  di- 
vided in  1832,  and  he  fell  into  the  Troy  conference,  and  was  in  Feb.,  1778, 
the  oldest  member  but  one  of  that  body.  He  spent  two  years  as  agent  of 
an  Academy;  four  years  Presiding  Elder  of  Burlington  district;  ten  years 
as  President  and  in  managing  otherwise  Troy  Academy;  and  the  rest  of  the 
time  on  circuits.  His  health  has  not  permitted  him  to  preach  much  of  late, 
therefore,  since  Feb.  25,  18G8,  has  been  living  at  North  Yineland,  N.  J., 
where  it  is  an  agreeable  place  for  his  health,  enjoying  a  peaceful  evening  tide. 
Children : 

WILLIAM  GEORGE,  b.  in  Bristol,  VL,  Sept.  30,  1825 ;  who  spent  several 
years  in  New  York  City  with  R.  C.  Root ;  died  unmarried  at  Poultuey,  Vt.,  Aug.

armor  of  a  warrier  to  put  down  the  Rebellion,"  and  served  in  the  15th  In- 
dependent Ohio  Volunteer  Battery,  but  stood  it  only  about  six  months. 
After  he  recovered  his  health,  he  went  into  the  wilds  of  Michigan,  took  up 
a  homestead  and  lived  upon  it  long  enough  to  prove  his  claim,  and  on 
the  same  he  had  to  pass  the  ordeal  of  that  terrible  fire  we  read  of,  which 
happened  in  Michigan  in  1871,  which  accounts  for  the  loss  of  his  eye-sight.

BENIAMIN^  SON  OF  HEMRY^  (P.  135), 

^jENJAMm^  born  in  Eowley,  March  23,  1695-6;  settled  in  the  town 
l^^l  of  his  birth  on  the  easterly  part  of  the  homestead  of  his  father, 
Sl^W  which,  as  we  have  mentioned,  was  given  him  by  said  parent  just  be- 
fore his  decease,  consisting  of  about  forty  acres  besides  some  salt  marsh  sit- 
uated in  Newbury.  When  the  parish  of  Byfield  Avas  incorporated,  about 
1702,  consisting  of  a  part  of  each,  Newbury  and  EoAvley,  his  place  fell  into 
said  parish.  His  transactions  in  real  estate  afterwards  was  the  sale  of  said 
marsh  to  Timothy  Jaekman  in  IT-IS,  the  buying  of  Daniel  and  John  Morri- 
son about  six  acres  in  Rowley,  which  he  sold  said  Jaekman  in  1745,  and

sold  to  Nehemiah  Noyes  thirteen  acres  in  Rowley  and  two  acres  in  Bradford 
in  1752,  and  as  one  of  a  committee  leased  some  land  for  Byfield  Parish,  in 
1741.  He  was  one  of  the  leading  men  of  his  neighborhood  and  held  the 
important  title  of  captain,  as  we  find  by  the  connty  records. 

He  married  for  his  wife  Elizabeth  Felt,  who,  we  suppose,  out-lived  him, 
but  we  have  not  learned  the  exact  time  of  the  decease  of  either  of  them. 
He  made  his  will  June  19,  1758,  which  was  proved  Apr.  2,  1759;  an  en- 
graving of  the  signature  we  here  give.  At  the  time  this  will  was  presented 
to   the    court    his   widow   Elizabeth  -^  '     ^^ 

sent  to  the  Judge  of  Probate  saying :         ^  (J)  }Z^(^l7ll]fl/%y/xA

or  more  years  next  after  he  sold  out  to  Burpee  we  are  not  informed,  perhaps 
he  hired  a  house  for  his  family  and  was  in  the  army  or  worked  at  his  trade;

SAMEL  ^  SON  OF  HENRY  ^  (pap  135),  JUHK.' 

^^AlVIUEL^,  born  in  Rowley,  April  28,  1706;  according  to  a  record  in 
p^H  one  branch  of  the  faniil}^  and  probably  it  is  correct,  but  I  do  not  di.s- 
%^^  cover  liis  birth  on  the  records  of  Newbury  or  Rowley,  where  his 
father  resided.  By  trade  he  was  a  honsewright,  and  he  owned  land  given 
him  by  his  father,  and  bought  according  to  deeds  handed  down  l)y  his  de- 
scendants, but  not  recorded;  of  Eliphalet  Paysou  four  acres  in  1735;  of 
John  Plumer  six  acres  in  1736;  and  of  David  Pearson  nine  acres  in  1737; 
all  we  find  of  his  transaction  recorded  is  a  sale  of  half  a  piece  of  salt  marsh 
to  his  cousin  Jeremiah  Poore  in  1741. 

Probably  he  was  a  quiet  sort  of  a  man  for  we  do  not  discover  that  he  held 
many  public  trusts;  the  only  ones  on  record  are  two  executive  town  offices, 
viz.,  those  of  constable  in  1730^0,  and  Ilog  Reeve  in  1731;  the  lattei-  ac- 
cording to  custom,  from  time  immemoi'ial  conferred  upon  newly  married 
men;  but,  if  he  had  lived  beyond  middle  age  perhaps  he  would  have  been 
called  to  fill  important  places. 

He  perhaps  died  of  a  fever  or  some  other  acute  disease  as  he  made  his 
will  September  14,  1748,  and  died  the  21st  of  same  month  —  only  one  week 
after.     In  his  will  he  mentions  all   his  children,  excepting   one  that  died

young;  his  wife,  and  his  father-in-law  John  Sari,  whom  he  appointed  exec- 
utor. 

In  the  inventory  of  his  estate  we  learn  that  he  had  in  his  homestead  about 
sixty  acres,  two  and  one-half  acres  of  fresh  meadow  near,  and  six  acres  of 
salt  marsh  in  Hewbury,  half  of  which  real  estate  he  gave  to  each  of  his 
sons  Joseph  and  Bliphalet,  and  he  owned  a  pew  in  the  upper  meeting  house 
in  Rowley. 

He  married  N^ovember  10,  1730,  Elizabeth,  the  daughter  of  John  Searl, 
who  was  born  January  20,  1712,  and  after  he  deceased  she  married  George 
Little,  and  went  to  JSTew  Boston  to  reside,  and  died  May  28, 1779.    Children:

brothers  Samuel  und  George  settled,  but  stayed  there  only  from  Mar.,  1708 
until  Aug.,  1799;  then  returned  to  Mass.  and  resided  in  Eeading  (where 
his  wife's  uncle  Daniel  Chute  then  lived)  then,  in  Jan.,  1801,  bought  of 
Rev.  Ehjah  Parish,  in  By  field,  a  place  a  few  rods  easterly  of  the  church  in 
that  ixuish  with  the  house  in  Newbury  on  the  northerly  side  of  the  street, 
and  six  acres  of  the  land  on  the  ojipositc  side  of  the  way.  They  occupied 
the  house  until  181G  (the  year  when  there  were  several  frosts  every  month, 
so  that  but  a  little  corn  in  New  England  ripened),  thou  they  i-esolvcd  to  go 
west  —  having  disposed  of  part  of  their  place  to  Benj.  Colman  in  1805,  and 
the  house  in  1813  to  her  father,  who  in  Sept.,  1816  sold  it  to  Joseph  Hale, 
Jr.,  who  had  married  Mrs.  Poore's  sister  Eunice  —  which  house  Eunice  in 
Jan.,  1829  sold  to  Doctor  Martin  Root  who  occupies  it  in  1880, 

They  with  seven  children  started  on  their  long  journey  in  the  autumn  of

letter  we  give  some  extracts  and  a  fac-simile  of  his  signature,  dated  at 
Pittsburgh,  Feb.  12,  1817,  the  postage  of  which  was  25  cents,  addressed  to 
"Mr.  Joseph  Poor,  By  field,  Mass.,  Newburyport  post  ofRce."  He  says 
"Possibly  you  may  think  it  strange  that  I  have  not  written  you  before  this 
—  but  the  sequel  of  my  letter  will  furnish  you  with  an  explanation  ...  on 
the  Avhole  we  had  a  prosperous  journey  and  have  enjoyed  our  usual  health 
since  we  have  Been  hence  —  on  our  arrival  however  Ave  found  the  City  full 
of  Yankee  Horses  and  Chariots  selling  at  auction  through  the  streets  .  . 
as  my  waggon  would  live  without  Eating  I  thought  I  had  better  let  it  stand 
by  Awhile  than  to  give  it  to  the  Crier  for  selling.  But  to  my  astonishment 
the  emigrants  Continued  to  flock  in  from  the  northward  in  troops  till  about 
the  first  of  January  and  kepte  the  City  glutted  with  Horses  and  Cariages 
so  you  see  I  have  Been  completely  frustrated  in  my  expectation  of  Raising 
Money  from  my  team  .  .  .  this  is  the  fifth  week  since  the  rivers  have  been 
passable  on  the  ice  a  thing  scarcely  known  in  the  annals  of  this  Country  .... 
Many  of  my  friends  and  acquaintances  thought  me  giddy  by  mounting  on 
the  airey  Castles  of  my  own  building — or  intoxicated  with  visionary  scenes 
of  Grandeur — but  their  Conceptions  of  the  Country  —  of  me — and  of  my 
designs  arid  Expectations  were  alike  puerile  for  —  surely  no  undertaking  of

otherwise  I  should  never  have  Done  violence  to  the  finest  feelings  of  human 
nature  in  breaking  away  from  my  old  connections^ — but  we  thought  it  best 
nor  have  we  seen  cause  to  repent  of  it  —  but  on  the  contrary  much  cause  of 
gratitude  to  the  great  disposer  of  all  events  who  has  preserved  us  thus  far. 
I  often  think  of  our  Mother  in  her  forlorn  situation  and  of  the  care  wliich 
devolves  uj^on  you  in  consequence  of  it  —  and  in  particular  upon  my  beloved 
sister  —  but  I  am  satisfied  that  all  is  done  for  her  which  can  be  done  —  and 
have  only  to  hope  and  pray  that  you  both  may  be  rewarded  for  your  care,

"While  in  Pittsburgh  their  son  John  was  born,  and  when  that  child  was 
about  two  months  old  they  went  down  the  Ohio  on  a  flat  boat,  following  the 
crooked  course  on  the  southern  border  of  the  state  of  Ohio,  by  Cincinnati, 
where  Mrs.  Poore's  brothers  Daniel  and  James  Chute  had  resided  about  ten 
years,  and  when  they  got  as  far  as  Madison  in  Jefferson  Co.,  which  is  on 
the  southeastern  border  of  Indiana,  they  landed  and  remained  awhile  and 
he  bought  some  land  in  the  wilds  about  forty  miles  westward  of  Madison, 
built  a  rough  log  cabin  to  live  in  and  removed  on  to  the  place  Oct.  2,  1819; 
but  he  died  Dec.  9,  1819  after  being  sick  only  about  four  hours,  leaving  his 
widow  to  care  for  their  large  family  of  children  in  the  dense  wood,  three 
miles  from  nearest  neighbors,  and  in  a  country  a  vast  distance  from  her 
kindred  and  old  acquaintances. 

Nevertheless  she  chose  to  remain  there,  although  her  friends  at  the  east 
offered  to  give  her  money  to  pay  the  expenses  if  she  would  come  back  to 
Massachusetts.  So,  Col.  Jere.  Collman,  of  IS^ewburyport,  the  enterprising 
man  of  the  Eastern  Stage  Company,  who  was  the  husband  of  her  sister 
Mary,  helped  her  to  one  hundred  dollars  to  pay  for  the  land,  and  she  with 
one  son  of  about  sixteen  years  of  age  and  her  elder  daughters  (the  eldest 
son  having  been  left  east  to  finish  learning  his  trade)  co-operating,  attacked

the  forest  and  raised  corn  for  bread,  and  her  nncommon  wisdom  and  enei'gy 
with  an  exceedingly  qniet  and  amiable  disposition  accompanied  also  with 
l)iety,  enaljled  her  to  succeed  in  rearing  a  family  which  she  could  look  upon 
with  pleasure,  and  her  children  and  the  grandchildren  who  enjoyed  her 
company  rise  up  and  call  her  blessed. 

Ever  after  the  decease  of  Mr.  Poore  —  more  than  half  a  century,  she 
remained  his  widow  and  after  her  son  Alvan  married,  she  resided  with  her 
daughter  Susannah  to  the  end  of  her  life  —  about  forty  years,  and  was  a 
great  help  in  bringing  up  her  very  large  family  of  children — retaining  her 
])hy.sical  and  mental  faculties  in  an  uncommon  degree  until  her  decease, 
Jan.  30,  1872,  after  becoming  a  nonogenarian.     Children:

Castle,  Ind.,  in  just  two  years  after  marriage,  leaving  a  dau.  Hulda  E.,  who  survived 
her  mother  six  weeks,  and  died  in  Sei^t.,  1828. 

7.  Mchitablc  T.,  born  Nov.  25,  1809  ;  married  William  Merrill. 

8.  Susannah,  born  Dec.  15,  1811  ;  married  Tlionias  J.  Brooks. 

9.  Harriet,  born  Aug.  27,  1815  ;  married  William  H.  Houghton. 

10.  John,  born  Feb.  1,  1818,  who  was  a  farmer  in  Siskiyou,  Cal.,  and  unmarried  when  heard

elected  a  School  Fund  Commissioner  in  1855,  and  served  in  that  office  about 
three  years.  In  1862  was  appointed  to  fill  the  place  of  Judge  Keller  when 
he  went  into  the  army;  and  at  the  next  annual  election  was  chosen  for  a 
full  term,  the  office  being  for  county  business  and  for  Probating  estates  of 
deceased  persons;  and  while  acting  as  Judge,  the  Legislature  passed  a 
law  making  the  comity  Judge  eligible  tothe  office  of  county  Recorder,  and 
he  was  elected  to  that  office  and  acted  some  three  years;  then  he  retired 
from  public  life — though  his  fellow  citizens  continued  to  urge  him  to  take 
offices  —  and  has  since  resided  on  his  farm  near  Mormontown,  which  place 
of  residence  is  in  the  westerly  part  of  Ringgold  County,  Iowa,  and  within 
about  one  mile  of  the  boundary  line  between  Ringgold  and  Taylor  Counties. 

He  reared  an  unusual  large  family  of  children,  and  one  trait  in  them 
which  we  may  mention  is  that  they  are  all  singers  and  some  are  good  pei- 
formers  on  musical  instruments;  they  were  by  two  daughters  of  Daniel  and 
Mary  (Walling)  Weddel,  of  East  Tennessee.  He  married  (1)  Feb.  21, 1822, 
Elizabeth,  born  in  Hawkins  Co.,  Tenn.,  Apr.  25,  1801,  by  whom  had  ten 
children.  She  died  June  13,  1840;  married  (2)  :Nov.  10,  1810,  Thirza,  wid. 
of  Samuel  Guthrie  (who  had  by  Mr.  Guthrie  four  daughters,  Ruth,  born 
1830,  Sarah  E.,  b.  1831,  Leannah,  b.  1831,  and  Mary '  A.,  b.  1830,  who 
were  all  m.  but  are  deceased),  born  Jan.  22,  1811.  These  wives'  parents 
were  natives  of  America,  their  father  b.  in  said  East  Tennessee  and  mother 
in  Virginia,  and  they  had  besides  Elizabeth  and  Thirza,  sons  Alfred,  Hiram 
C,  John  D.,  and  daughters  Millicent,  Louisiana,  Mary  A.,  Hester  A., 
Amanda  and  Alzira,  and  after  their  children  were  born  they  removed  to 
Jackson  Co.,  Ind.,  where  they  deceased.  Mr.  Poore  had  by  his  last  wife 
(and  she  is  the  only  child  of  her  parents  alive  in  1880)  six  children  more. 

At  the  time  his  children  were  born  he  resided  on  AVhite  River  in  the 
westerly  part  of  Jackson  Co.,  Ind.,  and  about  ten  miles  west  of  Brownstown, 
the  county  seat  of  Jackson  Co.  After  coming  to  Ringgold  Co.  he  owned 
410  acres  of  land  which  he  bought  of  government,  and  resided  some  eight 
miles  west  of  Mount  Ayr,  the  seat  of  that  county;  but  it  was  more  land 
than  he  could  easily  manage  after  his  boys  left,  so  he  gave  portions  of  it  to 
some  of  them  and  sold  the  rest  and  bought  about  1865,  the  place  near  Mor- 
montown, where  he  resides  in  1880.     Children:

for  about  ten  years,  a  cooper,  and  in  the  latter  part  of  life  a  fai-mer; 
but  we  are  informed  that  his  active  mind  did  not  permit  him  to  use  all  his 
energies  on  these  vocations.  Being  a  constant  readei-,  a  deep  thinker,  as 
well  as  a  man  of  ability  and  uprightness  of  character  and  sterling  worth, 
and  earnestly  devoted  to  Christianity,  he  was  resorted  to  for  his  opinion  in 
important  matters.  And  possessed  of  superior  oratorial  powers  was  called 
upon  frequently  to  deliver  Fourth  of  July  orations,  and  we  are  informed  by 
one  of  his  sons  that  during  the  five  years  he  lived  in  Iowa  he  was  engaged 
in  preaching  the  gospel.  His  life  was  one  of  an  exemplary  christian,  and 
his  death  was  that  of  the  righteous. 

He  married  Sept.  26,  1833,  Julia  Ann,  the  widow  of  Eli  Zaring  (who  by 
Mr.  Zaring  had  a  son  Eli,  who  died  of  yellow  fever  in  Donaldsonville,  La., 
about  18.50,  in  his  22nd  year,  nnm.).  She  was  daughter  of  John  and  Lydia, 
(Holmes)  DeWitt,  born  in  New  York  City,  Nov.  27,  1812.  After  their 
marriage  they  resided  in  Indiana  over  two-score  years;  the  first  seven  of 
their  children  were  born  in  "Washington  County,  and  the  eighth  in  Pike 
County,  and  in  tl^e  autumn  of  1856  they  removed  to  Iowa  and  settled  in  a 
locality  in  the  southwest  part  of  Ringgold  Co.,  on  the  west  fork  of  Grand 
River,  now  called  Redding,  which  is  about  fifteen  miles  from  Mt.  Ayr.  He

fLIPHALET*,  born  in  Rowley,  Mass.,  Mar.  18, 1746-7;. a  spirit  of  enter- 
prize  seized  him  in  his  teens,  consequently  we  find  him  residing  in  the 
granite  state  spring  of  1767  —  as  we  learn  from  an  instrument  found 
among  other  papers  handed  down  in  the  line  of  the  family  who  have  always 
occupied  the  homestead  of  his  father  and  grandfather  situated  in  that  part 
of  Rowley  now  called  Geoi-getown,  a  copy  of  which  we  here  insert  viz.:

He  about  that  time  also  sold  the  real  estate  which  was  given  to  him  by 
his  lather;  and  about  three  years  after  he  bought  real  estate  in  Hampstead. 
On  the  records  of  said  Hampstead,  ]S^.  H.,  we  find  recorded  the  births  of 
his  first  eight  children ;  but  it  seems  that  when  Ruth  the  eiglith  child  was 
about  two  years  of  age  he  sold  to  Jacob  Brown,  of  I^ewbury  all  his  land 
in  Hampstead,  and  removed  to  Hojikuiton,  the  town  on  high  lands  Ave^t 
of  Concord  the  capital  of  New  Hampshire;  resided  there  awhile — perhaps 
when  his  other  children  were  born,  and  while  there  conducted  the  grist  mill 
at  Contoocook  Village;  next  removed  from  Hopkinton  to  Dunbarton,  where 
we  suppose  his  wife  died.  While  in  Dunbarton  he  lived  at  the  place  sub- 
sequently occupied  by  his  grandnephew  Thomas  L.  Poore  (page  228). 
After  the  decease  of  his  wife  he  returned  to  Hopkinton,  and  there  resided 
the  remainder  of  his  days  with  his  daughter  Sally,  who  had  married  Mr. 
Emerson ;  he  died  Oct.  19,  1827,  after  attaining  the  age  of  an  Octogenarian. 

We  learn  from  aged  people  now  remaining  in  Hopkinton,  who  remember 
him,  that  he  was  a  tall,  gentlemanly  appearing  man.  Among  the  offices  of 
importance  held  by  him  while  residing  in  Hampstead,  was  that  of  a  select- 
man. He  was  a  soldier  in  the  Revolutionary  Army  and  he  is  styled  Captain 
by  those  in  Dunbarton  who  have  recollections  of  him. 

He  married  May  8,  1769,  Elizabeth,  daughter  of  Samuel  and  Sarah 
(FoUansbee)  Little,  born  in  said  Hampstead,  May  19,  1752.  Her  parents 
were  of  the  old  l^ewbury  families  and  her  paternal  ancestors  Avere  of  the 
family  of  Littles  to  Avhich  several  belonged  Avho  have  intermarried  Avith  our

Plumer,  and  had  two  or  more  daughters.  His  wife  died  and  he  removed  to  Biddeford, 
Maine,  where  he  probably  died  about  1855.  Probably  the  daughters  of  Daniel  never

Vermont,  but  returned  to  Hopliinton,  where  he  d.  Feb.  23,  18G2,  aged  SO  years,  and  his  widow

ASSOCIATION    OF    POORES, 


An  invitation  was  sent  to  those  bearing  the  surname  of  Poor  and  Poore,  who  reside  in  the  county  of 
Essex  and  vicinity,  in  Massachusetts,  to  meet  in  Boston,  at  Younrfs  Hotel,  on  the  Gth  of  November,  A.  D. 
1880,  and  consider  the  feasibility  of  forming  an  Association  of  our  family  for  the  purpose  of  making  a 
full  history  and  genealogy  of  the  same,  aud  continuing  the  records  of  each  branch  from  generation  to  gen- 
eration, and  also  to  appoint  the  time  and  place  for  a  social  gathering  of  representatives  of  their  kindred 
from  all  parts  of  the  couutry. 

At  11  o'cloi  k,  the  appointed  hour,  the  following  of  the  family  met  at  the  said  place,  viz.:  —  Ben: 
Perley  Poore,  West  Newbury,  Mass.;  Henry  Varnum  Poor,  Brookline,  Mass.;  Chas.  F.  Poor,  39  Clar- 
endon street,  Boston;  Geo.  H.  Poor,  Andover,  Mass.,  Law  Office,  18G  Washington  street.  Boston;  Perry 
Poor,  (Uiarlestown,  Mass.;  James  Ridgv.'ay  Poor,  34  Chester  Park,  Boston;  John  M.  Poor.  Haverhill, 
Mass.;  Edwin  Poor,  Bradford,  Mass.;  Alfred  PoOre,  Goffstown,  N.  II.;  Luke  Poor,  Haverhill,  Mass.; 
John  O.  Poor,  Boston;  Alljert  Poor,  North  Andover,  Mass.;  Joseph  Poor,  Peabody,  Mass.;  William 
Poor,  Andover,  Mass. ;  Nathaniel  C.  Poor,  34  Chester  Park,  Boston ;  Chas.  D.  Poore,  Maiden,  Mass. ; 
George  W.  Poore,  Maiden,  M;iss. ;  G.  W.  Poor,  Lawrence,  Mass.;  Franklin  N.  Poor,  Somerville,  Mass.; 
Joseph  H.  Poor,  Boston  ;  Leroy  Poor,  Boston  ;  Alfred  Poore,  Salem,  Mass. 

The  object  of  the  meeting  having  been  presented,  an  organization  was  effected  by  choosing  Maj.; 
Bex  :  Peki.ey  Poore  to  act  as  Chairman  and  Alfred  Pooi;e  of  Salem  as  Secretary. 

After  considering  the  objects  of  the  meeting,  a  committee  of  six  was  raised,  appointed  by  the 
chair,  to  devise  ways  and  means  to  have  a  genealogy  of  the  families  in  America  of  their  surname, 
■written  and  printed,  and  to  make  preparations  for  a  social  gathering  in  the  latter  part  of  1881.  This 
committee  consists  of  Henjry  V.  Poor  and  George  H.  Poor  of  the  descendants  of  Daniel  Poore,  one 
of  the  earliest  settlers  of  Andover;  Joh.n'  M.  Poor,  of  Haverhill,  and  Franklin  N.  Poor,  descendants 
of  John  Poore  of  Newbury,  the  earliest  of  the  name  in  America;  and  Nathaniel  C.  Poor  of  Boston 
and  John  M.  Poor,  of  West  Newbury,  descendants  of  Samuel  Poore,  some  of  whose  posterity  have  re- 
sided at  Indian  Hill  many  generations;  and  a  second  committee  composed  of  Alfred  Poore,  of  Salem, 
John  O.  Pooh,  of  Boston,  and  the  above  said  Gkopgk  H.  Poor,  of  .•indovcr,  was  appointed  to  prepare 
Constitution  and  By-laws,  and  nominate  officers  for  a  permanent  Association  to  be  acted  upon  at  the 
social  ;;alhering. 

The  first-named  committee,  Henry  V.  Poor,  Chairman,  held  several  meetings  and  concluded  to  send 
a  circular  to  all  of  the  family  who  can  be  found  in  the  country,  soliciting  subscriptions  for  the  work  aud 
other  aids  needed  in  order  to  further  the  object  of  publishing  the  genealogy  of  the  family  and  to  have  the 
social  gathering  at  Nevvburyport,  on  the  («p&t  Wednesday  of  September,  1881.
